TYCO SUBSTITUTES BANK DEBT FOR COMMERCIAL PAPER PEMBROKE, BERMUDA, FEBRUARY 4, 2002--Tyco International Ltd. (NYSE: TYC, LSE: TYI, BSX: TYC) today announced that it will repurchase all of the company's $4.5 billion commercial paper at its scheduled maturities. To fund these purchases, Tyco will borrow under its $5.9 billion of existing bank facilities with a term maturity of February 2003 as to $3.9 billion and February 2006 as to the other $2.0 billion. L. Dennis Kozlowski, Tyco's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, "While the increased interest costs will reduce earnings by up to $0.02 per share in fiscal 2002, by taking these actions we are enhancing Tyco's flexibility, liquidity, and eliminating uncertainty about our ability to finance our recently announced plan to unlock shareholder value. Additionally, the company has projected remaining fiscal year 2002 free cash flow to be in excess of $4 billion, of which a majority will be used to reduce existing indebtedness."
