*Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers* .

The articles of association of the Registrant provide that it shall indemnify, to the fullest extent permitted by Irish company law, every member of the board of directors and the company secretary against all costs, charges, losses, expenses and liabilities incurred by them in the execution and discharge of their duties or in relation thereto including liability incurred by them in defending any proceedings, civil or criminal, which relate to anything done or omitted or alleged to have been done or omitted by them as an officer or employee of the Registrant and in which judgment is given in their favor (or the proceedings are otherwise disposed of without any finding or admission of any material breach of duty on their part) or in which they are acquitted or in connection with any application under any statute for relief from liability in respect of any such act or omission in which relief is granted to them by a court.

In respect of any current or former executive officer of the Registrant (excluding any present or former member of the board of directors or any company secretary), or any person who is serving or has served at the request of the Registrant as a director or executive officer of another company, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including any subsidiary of the Registrant (each individually, a “Covered Person”), the Registrant’s articles of association provide that it shall (1) indemnify them, to the fullest extent permitted by Irish company law, against any expenses, including attorney’s fees, judgments, fines, and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by them in connection with any threatened, pending, or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, to which they were or are threatened to be made a party, or are otherwise involved (a “proceeding”), by reason of the fact that they were or are a Covered Person; provided, however, that any Covered Person shall not be indemnified by the Registrant against any liability arising out of (a) any fraud or dishonesty in the performance of such Covered Person’s duty to the Registrant, or (b) such Covered Party’s conscious, intentional or willful breach of the obligation to act honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the Registrant and (2) indemnify each Covered Person in the case of any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding by or in the name of the Registrant against expenses, including attorneys’ fees, actually and reasonably incurred in connection with the defense or the settlement thereof, except no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable for fraud or dishonesty in the performance of his or her duty to the Registrant, or for conscious, intentional or willful breach of their obligation to act honestly and in good faith with a view to the best interests of the Registrant, unless and only to the extent that the High Court of Ireland or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that despite the adjudication of liability, but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such Covered Person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses as the court shall deem proper.

In addition, the Registrant has entered into a Deed of Indemnification (the “Ireland Indemnification Agreement”) with each of its directors, secretary and executive officers (the “Indemnified Persons”). In addition, Tyco Fire & Security (US) Management, Inc., a Nevada corporation that is a subsidiary of the Registrant (“Management”) has entered an Indemnification Agreement with each of the Indemnified Persons (the “Management Indemnification Agreement,” and, together with the Ireland Indemnification Agreement, the “Indemnification Agreements”).

The Ireland Indemnification Agreement provides that if an Indemnified Person was, is or becomes a party to, or witness or other participant in, or is threatened to be made a party to, witness or other participant in, a proceeding by reason of being a director, secretary, officer or employee of the Registrant or while a director, secretary or officer of the Registrant is or was serving at the request of the Registrant or an affiliate of the Registrant as a director, officer, secretary, employee, trustee, agent or fiduciary of another foreign or domestic corporation, partnership, body corporate, company, joint venture, employee benefit plan, trust or other enterprise, then the Registrant will indemnify the Indemnified Person against all expenses, liability or loss to the fullest extent permitted by law. The Management Indemnification Agreement provides that if an Indemnified Person was, is or becomes a party to, or witness or other

participant in, or is threatened to be made a party to, witness or other participant in, a proceeding by reason of being a director, secretary, officer or employee of the Registrant or while a director or secretary of the Registrant is or was serving at the request of Management as a director, officer, secretary, employee, trustee, agent or fiduciary of another foreign or domestic corporation, partnership, body corporate, company, joint venture, employee benefit plan, trust or other enterprise, then Management will indemnify the Indemnified Person against all expenses, liability or loss to the fullest extent permitted by law. An Indemnified Person will not be entitled to indemnification in connection with a proceeding initiated by an Indemnified Person against the Registrant or any of its affiliates or any director, officer or employee of the Registrant or any of its affiliates except in certain circumstances set forth in the Indemnification Agreements. Under the Management Indemnification Agreement, the Indemnified Person will be entitled to advancement of reimbursement by Management of expenses upon receipt by Management of an undertaking by the Indemnified Person to repay all amounts paid or reimbursed by Management if it is ultimately determined that such criteria for indemnification have not been satisfied. The Indemnification Agreements also provide for the Registrant to consider whether to make the advancement of reimbursement to the Indemnified Person in respect of the relevant liability. No indemnification will be paid pursuant to the Indemnification Agreements (1) on account of any proceeding in which final and nonappealable judgment is rendered against an Indemnified Person for an accounting of profits from the purchase or sale of securities of the Registrant pursuant to Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, (2) if a court finally determines that the indemnification is not permitted under applicable law, (3) on account of any proceeding pursuant to which the Indemnified Person has been convicted of a crime constituting a felony or (4) on account of any proceedings brought by the Registrant or any of its subsidiaries against the Indemnified Person.

*Item 7. Exemption from Registration Claimed .*

Not applicable.

*Item 8. Exhibits .*

The exhibits filed herewith or incorporated herein by reference are set forth in the attached Exhibit Index.

The Registrant will submit or has submitted the Plans and, if applicable, any amendment to the Plans, to the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) in a timely manner and has made or will make all changes required by the IRS in order to qualify the Plan under Section 401 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

*Item 9. Undertakings .*

(a) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:

(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;

(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the Registration Statement;

(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or any material change to such information in the Registration Statement;

provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement.

(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new Registration Statement relating to the securities offered herein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

(b) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that is incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new Registration Statement relating to the securities offered herein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
