                      SENIOR VICE PRESIDENT, HUMAN RESOURCES


PEMBROKE, Bermuda - December 10, 2002 - Tyco International Ltd. (NYSE:TYC, BSX:
TYC, LSE: TYI) announced today that Laurie Siegel has been appointed Senior Vice
President, Human Resources.  She will report to Chairman and Chief Executive
Officer Ed Breen.

Ms. Siegel was previously at Honeywell International, where she spent eight
years in various roles, most recently as Vice President, Human Resources,
Specialty Materials.   Ms. Siegel also served at Honeywell as the Vice
President, Human Resources, Aerospace Services; Vice President, Human Resources
Services; and Director, Compensation.  She has extensive experience in
organization design, talent management, executive compensation, and use of
Six-Sigma methodology applied to HR processes.

Mr. Breen said:  "Laurie Siegel is an outstanding human resources professional
with extensive experience in diversified, global, manufacturing companies.  At
Tyco she will help us establish processes for identifying, developing and
promoting talent throughout the organization. She will be integral to the
management team we are continuing to build here at Tyco."

Ms. Siegel said:  "I could not be more enthusiastic about taking this position
at Tyco.  Ed Breen and his executive team are committed to a disciplined
approach to human resources management at all levels of the Company.  Tyco
employs a remarkable number of talented men and women, and one of our great
challenges will be to ensure that every one of them has the opportunity to reach
his or her potential at the Company.  With senior management's full support, I
believe we can achieve that goal."

Ms. Siegel's appointment is effective January 2, 2003.  She succeeds Patricia
Prue, who has resigned from the Company to allow Mr. Breen, as Tyco's new CEO,
to build the Company's management team.

Mr. Breen said:  "I respect Patty's decision to leave the Company at this time,
and I appreciate her help over the last few months in the transition we are
implementing here at Tyco."

Prior to joining Honeywell, Ms. Siegel was also Director, Global Compensation at
Avon Products and a Principal at Strategic Compensation Associates.  Ms. Siegel
graduated from the University of Michigan with a Bachelor of General Studies and
