•At the Annual Meeting: If you are planning to attend the Annual Meeting and wish to vote your shares

are not able to vote at the Annual Meeting unless they have a proxy, executed in their favor, from their
broker, bank or other nominee, the holder of record of their shares.
Even if you plan to be present at the Annual Meeting and you are a holder of record, we encourage you to
complete and mail the enclosed card to vote your shares by proxy or vote by phone or the Internet. Telephone
and Internet voting facilities for stockholders will be available 24 hours a day and will close at 11:59 p.m. EST

How do I vote by proxy given to a Company officer if I am a holder of record?
If you properly fill in your proxy card appointing an officer of the Company as your proxy and submit it to
us in time to vote, your proxy, meaning one of the individuals named on your proxy card, will vote your shares as
you have directed. If you sign the proxy card but do not make specific choices, your proxy will vote your shares
as recommended by the Board of Directors “FOR” each of the agenda items listed in this Proxy Statement.
If a new agenda item or a new motion or proposal for an existing agenda item is presented at the Annual
Meeting, the Company officer acting as your proxy will vote in accordance with the recommendation of our
Board of Directors. At the time we began printing this Proxy Statement, we knew of no matters that needed to be
acted on at the Annual Meeting other than those discussed in this Proxy Statement.
Whether or not you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, we urge you to submit your proxy. Returning the
proxy card or submitting your vote electronically will not affect your right to attend the Annual Meeting. You
must return your proxy card by the times and dates set forth below under “Returning Your Proxy Card to the
Company” in order for your vote to be counted.
How do I attend the Annual Meeting?
All stockholders are invited to attend and vote at the Annual Meeting. For admission to the Annual Meeting,
stockholders of record should bring the admission ticket which is part of the enclosed proxy card and a form of
photo identification to the Registered Stockholders check-in area, where their ownership will be verified. Those
who beneficially own shares should come to the Beneficial Owners check-in area. To be admitted, beneficial
owners must bring account statements or letters from their bank, brokers or nominees showing that they own
ADT shares as of January 16, 2013 along with a form of photo identification. Registration will begin at 8:00 a.m.
and the Annual Meeting will begin at 8:30 a.m.
What if I return my proxy but do not mark it to show how I am voting?
Your shares will be voted according to the instructions you have indicated. If you sign and return your proxy
card but do not indicate instructions for voting, your shares will be voted: “FOR” the election of all nominees to
the Board of Directors named on the proxy card; “FOR” the ratification of Deloitte & Touche LLP as our
Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm for 2013; “FOR” the approval, in a non-binding vote, of ADT’s
named executive officer compensation; and “ONE YEAR,” in a non-binding vote, on the frequency of non-
binding stockholder vote on ADT’s named executive officer compensation. For any other matter which may
properly come before the Annual Meeting, and any adjournment or postponement thereof, proxies will be voted
in accordance with the recommendation of the Board of Directors.
