ITEM 15. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS Bye-Law 102 of the Tyco Bye-laws provides, in part, that Tyco shall indemnify its directors and other officers for all costs, losses and expenses which they may incur in the performance of their duties as director or officer, provided that such indemnification is not otherwise prohibited under the Companies Act 1981 (as amended) of Bermuda.

Such insurance specifically excludes reimbursement of any director or officer for any charge or expense incurred in connection with various designated matters, including libel or slander, illegally obtained personal profits, profits recovered by Tyco pursuant to Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act and deliberate dishonesty.

ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS 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 SEC 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. 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. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the maximum aggregate offering price may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the SEC pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act, if in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective registration statement; and II-2 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 clauses (i) and (ii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by such clauses is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the SEC by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or 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 therein, 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. 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 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial BONA FIDE offering thereof. The undersigned Registration hereby undertakes that: (1) for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the Registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective; and (2) for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial BONA FIDE offering thereof.

EX-5.1 2 OPINION OF APPLEBY SPURLING Exhibit 5.1 16 July 1999 Tyco International Ltd. The Gibbons Building 10 Queen Street Hamilton HM 11 Bermuda Dear Sirs REGISTRATION STATEMENT ON FORM S-3 We have acted as attorneys in Bermuda for Tyco International Ltd., a Bermuda limited liability company ("Tyco"), in connection with its filing with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission of a Registration Statement on Form S-3, File No. 333-], (the "Registration Statement"), with respect to 4,719,201 of the Company's common shares, US$0.20 par value per share (the "Shares"), issuable to the selling shareholders named in the Registration Statement (the "Selling Shareholders") upon the exercise of certain stock options, under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, of the United States. For the purposes of this opinion we have examined and relied upon the documents listed which, in some cases, are also defined in the Schedule to this opinion, (the "Documents"). ASSUMPTIONS We have assumed: (i) that there is no provision of the law, regulation or public policy of any jurisdiction, other than Bermuda, which would have a material effect on any of the opinions herein expressed; (ii) that all representations and factual statements appearing in the Registration Statement are true, accurate and complete in all material respects; (iii) the genuineness of all signatures on the Documents; (iv) the authenticity, accuracy and completeness of all documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity to authentic original documents, of all documents produced to us as certified, conformed, notarised or photostatic copies; (v) that the information disclosed by our Searches has not been materially altered and that the Searches did not fail to disclose any material information which had been delivered for filing or registration, but was not disclosed or did not appear on the public file at the time of the Searches; (vi) that the Signature Pages evidence the approval of all of the Directors of Tyco of all matters relating to Tyco set out in the Registration Statement including, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the issue of the Shares to the Selling Shareholders; (vii) that the Resolutions are in full force and effect and have not been rescinded, either in whole or in part and accurately record the resolutions passed by the Board of Directors or Shareholders of Tyco at a meeting which was duly convened and at which a duly constituted quorum was present and voting throughout; and (viii) that the Shares are or were issued pursuant to the terms of the Tyco International Ltd. Long Term Incentive Plan (the "Plan"). OPINION Based on and subject to the foregoing, subject to the reservations set out below, and to any matters not disclosed to us, we are of the opinion that: (1) Tyco has been duly incorporated as a limited liability company and is validly existing and in good standing under the laws of Bermuda and has all requisite corporate power and authority to issue the Shares. (2) When duly issued pursuant to the Resolutions and the Plan all necessary action required to be taken by Tyco pursuant to Bermuda law will have been taken by or on behalf of Tyco and all the necessary authorisations and approvals of Governmental authorities in Bermuda have been duly obtained for the issue by Tyco of the Shares. (3) When duly issued pursuant to the Resolutions and the Plan and in the circumstances referred to or summarised under the caption "Selling Shareholders" in the Registration Statement the Shares will be (or, to the extent heretofore issued, are) validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable shares in the capital of Tyco. (4) There are no taxes, duties or other charges payable to or chargeable by the Government of Bermuda, or any authority or agency thereof, in respect of the issue of the Securities. RESERVATIONS We have the following reservations:- (a) We express no opinion as to any other law other than Bermuda law and none of the opinions expressed herein relates to compliance with or matters governed by the laws of any jurisdiction except Bermuda. This opinion is limited to Bermuda law as applied by the Courts of Bermuda as at the date hereof. (b) In paragraph (1) above, the term "good standing" means that the Company has neither failed to make any filing with any Bermuda governmental authority nor to pay any Bermuda government fee or tax, which might make it liable to be struck off the Registrar of Companies and thereby cease to exist under the laws of Bermuda. (c) Any reference in this opinion to shares being "non-assessable" shall mean, in relation to fully paid shares of Tyco and subject to any contrary provision in any agreement in writing between such company and the holder of such shares, that no shareholder shall be bound by an alteration to the Memorandum of Association or Bye-laws of Tyco after the date on which he became a shareholder, if and so far as the alteration requires him to take, or subscribe for additional shares, or in any way increases his liability to contribute to the share capital of, or otherwise to pay money to, Tyco.
