NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED)

1. Basis of Presentation

Company Name Change

        In March 2011, the shareholders of Tyco Electronics Ltd. approved an amendment to the company's articles of association to change the name of the company from "Tyco Electronics Ltd." to "TE Connectivity Ltd." The name change was effective March 10, 2011. The company's ticker symbol "TEL" on the New York Stock Exchange remains unchanged.

Basis of Presentation

        The unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of TE Connectivity Ltd. ("TE Connectivity" or the "Company") have been prepared in United States Dollars, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). The preparation of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make use of estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates. In management's opinion, the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contain all normal recurring adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of interim results. The results of operations reported for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations for the entire fiscal year or any subsequent interim period.

        The Company consists of three reportable segments: Transportation Solutions, Communications and Industrial Solutions, and Network Solutions. The Company's former Transportation Connectivity segment was renamed Transportation Solutions during the second quarter of fiscal 2011. Effective for the first quarter of fiscal 2011, the Company reorganized its management and segments to align the organization around its strategy. The Company's businesses in the former Specialty Products Group—Aerospace, Defense, and Marine; Medical; Circuit Protection; and Touch Solutions—have been moved into other segments. Also, the former Subsea Communications segment and the businesses associated with ADC Telecommunications, Inc. ("ADC"), acquired on December 8, 2010, have been included in the Network Solutions segment. See Note 4 for additional information regarding the Company's acquisition of ADC and Note 20 for additional information regarding the Company's segments.

        The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The year-end balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements, but does not include all of the information and disclosures required by GAAP. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company's audited Consolidated Financial Statements contained in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 24, 2010.

        Unless otherwise indicated, references in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements to fiscal 2011 and fiscal 2010 are to the Company's fiscal years ending September 30, 2011 and September 24, 2010, respectively.

Reclassifications

        The Company has reclassified certain items on its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements to conform to the current year presentation.

2. Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

        In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued updates to guidance in Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 810, Consolidation, that address accounting for variable interest entities. The Company adopted these updates to ASC 810 in the first quarter of fiscal 2011. Adoption did not have a material impact on the Company's results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.

        In December 2010, the FASB issued an update to guidance in ASC 805, Business Combinations, that clarifies the disclosure requirements for pro forma presentation of revenue and earnings related to a business combination. The Company elected to early adopt this guidance during the first quarter of fiscal 2011. See Note 4 for the required pro forma presentation related to the acquisition of ADC.

3. Restructuring and Other Charges, Net (Continued)

Fiscal 2011 Actions

        The Company initiated restructuring programs during fiscal 2011 which were primarily associated with the acquisition of ADC and related headcount reductions in the Network Solutions segment. In connection with these actions, during the six months ended March 25, 2011, the Company recorded restructuring charges of $58 million primarily related to employee severance and benefits. The Company expects to complete all restructuring activities commenced in fiscal 2011 by the end of the fiscal year and to incur additional charges, primarily in the Network Solutions segment, of approximately $4 million relating to these initiated actions by completion.

        During the six months ended March 25, 2011, in connection with the acquisition of ADC, the Company assumed $16 million of liabilities related to employee severance and exited lease facilities which have been included in the Network Solutions segment. The Company expects to incur charges of $2 million relating to these actions by completion.

Fiscal 2010 Actions

        The Company initiated restructuring programs during fiscal 2010 primarily relating to headcount reductions in the Transportation Solutions segment. In connection with these actions, during the six months ended March 25, 2011 and March 26, 2010, the Company recorded net restructuring credits of $5 million and charges of $52 million, respectively, primarily related to employee severance and benefits. The Company expects to complete all restructuring activities commenced in fiscal 2010 by the end of fiscal 2011 and to incur additional charges, primarily in the Transportation Solutions segment, of approximately $3 million relating to these initiated actions by completion.

Pre-Fiscal 2010 Actions

        During the six months ended March 25, 2011 and March 26, 2010, the Company recorded net restructuring credits of $6 million and charges of $7 million, respectively, related to pre-fiscal 2010 actions. The Company expects to complete all restructuring activities commenced in fiscal 2009 by the end of fiscal 2011 and to incur additional charges, primarily in the Communications and Industrial Solutions segment, of approximately $5 million relating to these initiated actions by completion.

        Restructuring actions initiated in fiscal 2002 primarily related to actions taken as a result of a significant downturn in the telecommunications industry and certain other end markets. As of March 25, 2011, the remaining restructuring reserves related to 2002 actions were $33 million and related to exited lease facilities in the Network Solutions segment. The Company expects that the remaining reserves will continue to be paid out over the expected terms of the lease obligations which range from one to fifteen years.

Restructuring and Related Non-Cash Charges

        During the six months ended March 25, 2011 and March 26, 2010, the Company recorded non-cash charges of $5 million and $3 million, respectively, primarily related to the write-off of fixed assets in connection with exited manufacturing facilities and product lines.

Loss on Divestiture and Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

        In December 2009, the Company completed the sale of the Dulmison connectors and fittings product line which was part of the Company's energy business in the Network Solutions segment for net cash proceeds of $12 million. In connection with the divestiture, the Company recorded a pre-tax impairment charge related to long-lived assets and a pre-tax loss on sale totaling $13 million in the first six months of fiscal 2010.

        The impairment charge and loss on sale are reflected in restructuring and other charges, net on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. The Company has presented the long-lived asset impairment, the loss on sale, and the operations of the Dulmison connectors and fittings product line in continuing operations due to immateriality.

4. Acquisition

        In July 2010, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") to acquire 100% of the outstanding stock of ADC Telecommunications, Inc. ("ADC"), a provider of broadband communications network connectivity products and related solutions. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Company commenced a tender offer through a subsidiary of the Company to purchase all of the issued and outstanding shares of ADC common stock at a purchase price of $12.75 per share in cash followed by a merger of the subsidiary with and into ADC, with ADC surviving as an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. On December 8, 2010, the Company acquired 86.8% of the outstanding common shares of ADC. On December 9, 2010, the Company exercised its option under the Merger Agreement to purchase additional shares from ADC that, when

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (Continued)

4. Acquisition (Continued)

combined with the shares purchased in the tender offer, were sufficient to give the Company ownership of more than 90% of the outstanding ADC common shares. On December 9, 2010, upon effecting a short-form merger under Minnesota law, the Company owned 100% of the outstanding shares of ADC for a total purchase price of approximately $717 million in cash (net of cash acquired of $546 million) and $22 million representing the fair value of ADC share-based awards exchanged for TE Connectivity share options and stock appreciation rights.

        Based on the terms and conditions of ADC's share option and stock appreciation right ("SAR") awards (the "ADC Awards"), all ADC Awards became exercisable upon completion of the acquisition. Each outstanding ADC Award was exchanged for approximately 0.4 TE Connectivity share options or SARs and resulted in approximately 3 million TE Connectivity share options being issued with a weighted-average exercise price of $38.88. Issued SARs and the associated liability were insignificant. The fair value associated with the exchange of ADC Awards for TE Connectivity awards was approximately $24 million based on Black-Scholes-Merton pricing valuation model, of which $22 million was recorded as consideration given in the acquisition while the remaining $2 million was recorded as acquisition and integration costs on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations during the six months ended March 25, 2011.

        The acquisition was made to accelerate the Company's growth potential in the global broadband connectivity market. The Company expects to realize cost savings and other synergies through operational efficiencies. ADC's businesses are reported as part of the Company's Network Solutions segment from the date of acquisition.

        The ADC acquisition was accounted for under the provisions of ASC 805, Business Combinations. The Company has allocated the purchase price to tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair values. The Company has completed the valuation of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of March 25, 2011.

        Other current assets includes trade accounts receivable of $171 million, inventories of $166 million, and deferred income taxes of $16 million. Other current assets also includes assets held for sale of $109 million for which the Company has entered into binding sales agreements. Other current liabilities assumed are primarily comprised of accrued and other current liabilities of $165 million and trade accounts payable of $88 million.

        The fair values assigned to intangible assets were determined through the use of the income approach, specifically the relief from royalty method, multi-period excess earnings method, and avoided cost method. These valuation methods rely on management judgments, including expected future cash flows resulting from existing customer relationships, customer attrition rates, contributory effects of other assets utilized in the business, peer group cost of capital and royalty rates, and other factors. The valuation of tangible assets was derived using a combination of the income approach, the market approach, and the cost approach. Significant judgments used in valuing tangible assets include estimated reproduction or replacement cost, useful lives of assets, estimated selling prices, costs to complete, and reasonable profit.

        Useful lives for intangible assets were determined based upon the remaining useful economic lives of the intangible assets that are expected to contribute directly or indirectly to future cash flows.

        Intangible assets acquired consist of the following:

Customer relationships	$	175		11
Developed technology and patents		118		12
Customer order backlog		11		0.6
Trade names and trademarks		4		1.3
Total	$	308		11

        The acquired intangible assets are being amortized on a straight-line basis over their expected lives. The $366 million of goodwill is attributable to the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The goodwill recognized is primarily attributable to cost savings and other synergies that the Company expects to realize through operational efficiencies including consolidation of manufacturing, marketing, and general and administrative functions. All of the goodwill has been allocated to the Company's Network Solutions segment and is not deductible for tax purposes. However, prior to its merger with the Company, ADC completed certain acquisitions that resulted in goodwill deductible for U.S. tax purposes of approximately $346 million which the Company will deduct over the next ten years. The decrease in goodwill from the preliminary valuation of $523 million at December 24, 2010 is primarily attributable to the completion of the assessment of the acquired net deferred tax asset. The Company has increased the net deferred tax asset by $150 million principally in connection with the recognition of additional tax benefits of U.S. federal tax loss carryforwards. The Company has concluded it is more likely than not that these additional tax loss carryforwards will be utilized prior to their expiration, and accordingly, has reduced the valuation allowance previously established.

        For the quarter ended March 25, 2011, ADC contributed net sales of $279 million and an operating loss of $31 million to the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The operating loss included charges of $30 million associated with the amortization of acquisition accounting-related fair value adjustments primarily related to inventories and customer order backlog, restructuring charges of $17 million, and acquisition costs of $1 million.

        During the period from December 9, 2010 to March 25, 2011, ADC contributed net sales of $330 million and an operating loss of $88 million to the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The operating loss included restructuring charges of $52 million, charges of $37 million associated with the amortization of acquisition accounting-related fair value adjustments primarily related to inventories and customer order backlog, integration costs of $10 million, and acquisition costs of $8 million.

8. Debt (Continued)

        During December 2010, Tyco Electronics Group S.A. ("TEGSA"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, issued $250 million principal amount of 4.875% senior notes due January 15, 2021. The notes were offered and sold pursuant to an effective registration statement on Form S-3 filed on July 1, 2008, as amended on June 26, 2009. Interest on the notes accrues from the issuance date at a rate of 4.875% per year and is payable semi-annually on January 15 and July 15 of each year, beginning July 15, 2011. The notes are TEGSA's unsecured senior obligations and rank equally in right of payment with all existing and any future senior indebtedness of TEGSA and senior to any subordinated indebtedness that TEGSA may incur. The notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed as to payment on an unsecured senior basis by the Company. Net proceeds from the issuance were approximately $249 million.

        In the first quarter of fiscal 2011, in connection with the acquisition of ADC, the Company assumed $653 million of convertible subordinated notes due 2013, 2015, and 2017. Under the terms of the indentures governing these convertible subordinated notes, following the acquisition of ADC, the right to convert the notes into shares of ADC common stock changed to the right to convert the notes into cash. See Note 4 for more information on the ADC acquisition. In December 2010, the Company's ADC subsidiary commenced offers to purchase $650 million aggregate principal amount of the convertible subordinated notes at par plus accrued interest, pursuant to the terms of the indentures for the notes. The offers to purchase expired in January 2011. Promptly thereafter, $198 million principal amount of the convertible subordinated notes due 2013, $55 million principal amount of the convertible subordinated notes due 2015, and $218 million principal amount of the convertible subordinated notes due 2017 were purchased for an aggregate purchase price of $471 million. All of the convertible subordinated notes purchased by ADC have been cancelled.

        Pursuant to an internal reorganization related to the acquisition of ADC, on March 22, 2011, the Company's ADC subsidiary commenced offers to purchase all of its outstanding convertible subordinated notes due 2015 and 2017 at par plus accrued interest. The notes are reflected as current on the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of March 25, 2011. Subsequent to the quarter ended March 25, 2011, the Company purchased and cancelled notes validly tendered. See Note 21 for additional information regarding the offers.

        In April 2007, TEGSA entered into a five-year unsecured senior revolving credit facility ("Credit Facility"). At March 25, 2011, the total effective commitment under the Credit Facility was $1,425 million. TEGSA had no borrowings under the Credit Facility at March 25, 2011 and September 24, 2010.

        The Credit Facility contains a financial ratio covenant providing that if the Company's ratio of Consolidated Total Debt (as defined in the Credit Facility) to Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Facility) for the then most recently concluded period of four consecutive fiscal quarters exceeds 3.5 to 1.0, an Event of Default (as defined in the Credit Facility) is triggered. The Credit Facility and the Company's other debt agreements contain additional customary covenants.

        TEGSA's payment obligations under its senior notes, commercial paper, and Credit Facility are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by TE Connectivity Ltd. Neither TE Connectivity Ltd. nor any of its subsidiaries provides a guarantee as to ADC's payment obligations under its convertible notes.

        The Company has used, and continues to use, derivative instruments to manage interest rate risk. See Note 11 for information on options to enter into interest rate swaps ("swaptions"), forward starting interest rate swaps, and interest rate swaps.

        The fair value of the Company's debt was approximately $2,974 million and $2,680 million at March 25, 2011 and September 24, 2010, respectively.

9. Guarantees

        Pursuant to the Separation and Distribution Agreement and Tax Sharing Agreement, upon separation from Tyco International Ltd. ("Tyco International") on June 29, 2007, the Company entered into certain guarantee commitments and indemnifications with Tyco International and Covidien plc ("Covidien"). Under these agreements, principally the Tax Sharing Agreement, Tyco International, Covidien, and TE Connectivity share 27%, 42%, and 31%, respectively, of certain contingent liabilities relating to unresolved pre-separation tax matters of Tyco International. The effect of the Tax Sharing Agreement is to indemnify the Company for 69% of certain liabilities settled in cash by the Company with respect to unresolved pre-separation tax matters. Pursuant to that indemnification, the Company has made similar indemnifications to Tyco International and Covidien with respect to 31% of certain liabilities settled in cash by the companies relating to unresolved pre-separation tax matters. If any of the companies responsible for all or a portion of such liabilities were to default in its payment of costs or expenses related to any such liability, the Company would be responsible for a portion of the defaulting party or parties' obligation. In addition, Tyco International and Covidien are responsible for their tax liabilities that are not subject to the Tax Sharing Agreement's sharing formula. The Company's indemnification created under the Tax Sharing Agreement qualifies as a guarantee of a third party entity's debt under ASC 460, Guarantees.

        At March 25, 2011, the Company had a liability representing the indemnifications made to Tyco International and Covidien pursuant to the Tax Sharing Agreement of $339 million of which $210 million was reflected in other liabilities and $129 million was reflected in accrued and other current liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. At September 24, 2010, the liability was $339 million and consisted of $205 million in other liabilities and $134 million in accrued and other current liabilities. The amount reflected in accrued and other current liabilities is the Company's estimated cash obligation under the Tax Sharing Agreement to Tyco International and Covidien in connection with pre-separation tax matters that could be resolved within one year. The Company has assessed the probable future cash payments to Tyco International and Covidien for pre-separation income tax matters pursuant to the terms of the Tax Sharing Agreement and determined this amount remains sufficient to satisfy these expected obligations.

        In disposing of assets or businesses, the Company often provides representations, warranties, and/or indemnities to cover various risks including unknown damage to the assets, environmental risks involved in the sale of real estate, liability for investigation and remediation of environmental contamination at waste disposal sites and manufacturing facilities, and unidentified tax liabilities and legal fees related to periods prior to disposition. The Company does not have the ability to estimate the potential liability from such indemnities because they relate to unknown conditions; however, the Company has no reason to believe that these uncertainties would have a material adverse effect on the Company's results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.

9. Guarantees (Continued)

        At March 25, 2011, the Company had outstanding letters of credit and letters of guarantee in the amount of $453 million, of which $50 million was related to its contract with the State of New York (the "State"). As disclosed in Note 10, in January 2009, the State drew down $50 million against an irrevocable standby letter of credit funded by the Company. Although the Company disputes that the State has any basis to do so, the State has the ability to draw up to an additional $50 million against the standby letter of credit which could result in additional charges and could have a significant adverse effect on the Company's results of operations, financial position, and cash flows.

        In the normal course of business, the Company is liable for contract completion and product performance. In the opinion of management, except for the potential claims related to the contract with the State of New York discussed above, such obligations will not significantly affect the Company's results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.

        The Company generally records estimated product warranty costs at the time of sale. The changes in the Company's warranty liability for the quarters and six months ended March 25, 2011 and March 26, 2010 were as follows:

TE Connectivity Legal Proceedings

        In the ordinary course of business, the Company is subject to various legal proceedings and claims, including patent infringement claims, product liability matters, employment disputes, tax matters, disputes on agreements, other commercial disputes, environmental matters, and antitrust claims. Although it is not feasible to predict the outcome of these proceedings, based upon the Company's experience, current information, and applicable law, the Company does not expect that the outcome of these proceedings, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on its results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.

Legal Matters under Separation and Distribution Agreement

        The Separation and Distribution Agreement among the Company, Tyco International, and Covidien provided for the allocation among the parties of Tyco International's assets, liabilities, and obligations attributable to periods prior to the Company's and Covidien's separations from Tyco International on June 29, 2007. Under the Separation and Distribution Agreement, the Company

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (Continued)

10. Commitments and Contingencies (Continued)

assumed the liability for, and control of, all pending and threatened legal matters at separation related to the Company's business or assumed or retained liabilities. TE Connectivity was responsible for 31% of certain liabilities that arose from litigation pending or threatened at separation that was not allocated to one of the three parties, and Tyco International and Covidien were responsible for 27% and 42%, respectively, of such liabilities. If any party defaults in payment of its allocated share of any such liability, each non-defaulting party will be responsible for an equal portion of the amount in default together with any other non-defaulting party, although any such payments will not release the obligation of the defaulting party. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Separation and Distribution Agreement, Tyco International manages and controls all the legal matters related to the shared contingent liabilities, including the defense or settlement thereof, subject to certain limitations. All costs and expenses that Tyco International incurs in connection with the defense of such litigation, other than the amount of any judgment or settlement, which is allocated in the manner described above, will be borne equally by Tyco International, Covidien, and the Company. At the present time, all significant matters for which the Company shared responsibility with Tyco International and Covidien under the Separation and Distribution Agreement, which as previously reported in the Company's periodic filings generally related to securities class action cases and other securities cases, have been settled. Other than matters described below under "Compliance Matters," the Company presently is not aware of any additional legal matters which may arise for which it would bear a portion of the responsibility under the Separation and Distribution Agreement.

Compliance Matters

        As previously reported in the Company's periodic filings, Tyco International received and has responded to various allegations that certain improper payments were made by Tyco International subsidiaries, including TE Connectivity subsidiaries, in recent years prior to the separation. Tyco International reported to the U.S. Department of Justice and the Securities and Exchange Commission the investigative steps and remedial measures that it had taken in response to the allegations, including that it retained outside counsel to perform a company-wide baseline review of its policies, controls, and practices with respect to compliance with the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act ("FCPA"), and that it would continue to investigate and make periodic progress reports to these agencies. To date, the Company's baseline review has revealed that some of the Company's former business practices may not have complied with FCPA requirements. At this time, the Company believes it has adequate amounts recorded related to these matters, the amounts of which are not significant. Any judgment, settlement, or other cost incurred by Tyco International in connection with these matters not specifically allocated to Tyco International, Covidien, or the Company would be subject to the liability sharing provisions of the Separation and Distribution Agreement.

Income Taxes

        In prior years, in connection with the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") audit of various fiscal years, Tyco International submitted to the IRS proposed adjustments to prior period U.S. federal income tax returns resulting in a reduction in the taxable income previously filed. The IRS accepted substantially all of the proposed adjustments for fiscal 1997 through 2000 for which the IRS had completed its field work. On the basis of previously accepted amendments, the Company has determined that acceptance of adjustments presented for additional periods through fiscal 2006 is more

likely than not to be accepted and, accordingly, has recorded them, as well as the impacts of the adjustments accepted by the IRS, on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

        As the Company's tax return positions continue to be updated for periods prior to separation, additional adjustments may be identified and recorded on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. While the final adjustments cannot be determined until the income tax return amendment process is completed, the Company believes that any resulting adjustments will not have a material impact on its results of operations, financial position, or cash flows. Additionally, adjustments may be recorded to shareholders' equity in the future for the impact of filing final or amended income tax returns in certain jurisdictions where those returns include a combination of Tyco International, Covidien, and/or the Company's subsidiaries for the periods prior to the separation.

        During fiscal 2007, the IRS concluded its field examination of certain of Tyco International's U.S. federal income tax returns for the years 1997 through 2000 and issued Revenue Agent Reports which reflect the IRS' determination of proposed tax adjustments for the 1997 through 2000 period. Tyco International has appealed certain proposed adjustments totaling approximately $1 billion. Additionally, the IRS proposed civil fraud penalties against Tyco International arising from alleged actions of former executives in connection with certain intercompany transfers of stock in 1998 and 1999. Based upon statutory guidelines, Tyco International estimates the proposed penalties could range between $30 million and $50 million, and it is the Company's understanding that Tyco International is vigorously opposing the assertion of any such penalties. The penalty is asserted against a prior subsidiary of Tyco International that was distributed to TE Connectivity in connection with the separation. Any penalty ultimately imposed upon the TE Connectivity subsidiary would be subject to sharing with Tyco International and Covidien under the Tax Sharing Agreement. It is the Company's understanding that Tyco International continues to make progress towards resolving a substantial number of the proposed tax adjustments for the years 1997 through 2000; however, several significant matters remain in dispute. The primary issues in dispute involve the tax treatment of certain intercompany transactions. If Tyco International is not able to resolve these contested adjustments through the IRS appeals process, it may choose to litigate the disputed issues. In addition, Tyco International could settle with the IRS and pay any related deficiencies for the undisputed tax adjustments within the next twelve months.

        The IRS continues to audit certain Tyco International income tax returns for the years 2001 through 2004 and is nearing completion of its fieldwork for this period. It is possible that the audit for the years 2001 through 2004 will conclude within the next twelve months. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009, Tyco International settled a matter with the IRS concerning certain tax deductions claimed on Tyco International's income tax returns for the years 2001 through 2004. The Company has reflected $244 million of liabilities related to the audits of Tyco International's income tax returns for 1997 through 2000 and 2001 through 2004 in accrued and other current liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at March 25, 2011 and September 24, 2010 as certain of these matters could be resolved within one year. It is anticipated that the IRS will commence its audit of certain Tyco International income tax returns for the years 2005 through 2007 in fiscal 2011.

        The Company continues to believe that the amounts recorded in its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements relating to the matters discussed above are appropriate. However, the ultimate resolution is uncertain and could result in a material impact to the Company's results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.

Environmental Matters

        The Company is involved in various stages of investigation and cleanup related to environmental remediation matters at a number of sites. The ultimate cost of site cleanup is difficult to predict given the uncertainties regarding the extent of the required cleanup, the interpretation of applicable laws and regulations, and alternative cleanup methods. As of March 25, 2011, the Company concluded that it was probable that it would incur remedial costs in the range of $14 million to $25 million. As of March 25, 2011, the Company concluded that the best estimate within this range is $14 million, of which $6 million is included in accrued and other current liabilities and $8 million is included in other liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. In view of the Company's financial position and reserves for environmental matters of $14 million, the Company believes that any potential payment of such estimated amounts will not have a material adverse effect on its results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.

Matters Related to the Company's Former Wireless Systems Business

        Certain liabilities and contingencies related to the Company's former Wireless Systems business were retained by the Company when this business was sold in fiscal 2009. These include certain retained liabilities related to the State of New York contract and a contingent purchase price commitment related to the acquisition of Com-Net by the Wireless Systems business in 2001. See additional information below.

State of New York Contract

        In September 2005, the Company was awarded a twenty-year lease contract with the State of New York to construct, operate, and maintain a statewide wireless communications network for use by state and municipal first responders. In August 2008, the Company was served by the State with a default notice related to the first regional network, pursuant to the contract. Under the terms of the contract, the Company had 45 days to rectify the purported deficiencies noted by the State. In October 2008, the Company informed the State that all technical deficiencies had been remediated and the system was operating in accordance with the contract specifications and certified the system ready for testing. The State conducted further testing during November and December 2008. In January 2009, the State notified the Company that, in the State's opinion, the Company had not fully remediated the issues cited by the State and it had determined that the Company was in default of the contract and that it had exercised its right to terminate the contract. The State contends that it has the right under the contract to recoup costs incurred by the State in conjunction with the implementation of the network, and as a result of this contention, in January 2009, the State drew down $50 million against an irrevocable standby letter of credit funded by the Company. The State has the ability to draw up to an additional $50 million against the standby letter of credit, although the Company disputes that the State has any basis to do so.

        In February 2009, the Company filed a claim in the New York Court of Claims, seeking over $100 million in damages, and alleging a number of causes of action, including breach of contract, unjust enrichment, defamation, conversion, breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing, the imposition of a constructive trust, and seeking a declaration that the State terminated the contract "for convenience." In September 2009, the Court granted the State's motion to dismiss all counts of the

complaint, with the exception of the breach of contract claim and a claim for breach of warranty in connection with the State's drawdown on the $50 million letter of credit. In November 2009, the State filed an answer to the complaint and counterclaim asserting breach of contract and alleging that the State has incurred damages in excess of $275 million. The Company moved to dismiss the counterclaim in February 2010, and in June 2010 the Court denied the motion. The Company filed its answer to the State's counterclaim in July 2010. The Company believes that the counterclaim is without merit and intends to vigorously pursue its claims in this matter. A trial date has been set for October 2011.

Com-Net

        At March 25, 2011, the Company had a contingent purchase price commitment of $80 million related to its fiscal 2001 acquisition of Com-Net. This represents the maximum amount payable to the former shareholders of Com-Net only after the construction and installation of a communications system for the State of Florida is finished and the State of Florida has approved the system based on the guidelines set forth in the contract. Under the terms of the purchase and sale agreement, the Company does not believe it has any obligation to the sellers. However, the sellers have contested the Company's position and initiated a lawsuit in June 2006 in the Court of Common Pleas in Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, which is in the motion pleading and discovery phase. A liability for this contingency has not been recorded on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as the Company does not believe that any payment is probable or reasonably estimable at this time.

11. Financial Instruments

        The Company's financial instruments consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, debt, and derivative financial instruments. The fair value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable approximated book value as of March 25, 2011 and September 24, 2010. See Note 8 for disclosure of the fair value of debt and Note 12 for additional information on fair value measurements.

        The Company uses derivative and non-derivative financial instruments to manage certain exposures to foreign currency, interest rate, and commodity risks.

Foreign Exchange Risks

        As part of managing the exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates, the Company utilizes foreign currency forward and swap contracts, a portion of which are designated as cash flow hedges. The objective of these contracts is to minimize impacts to cash flows and profitability due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates on intercompany transactions, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and other cash transactions.

        The Company expects that significantly all of the balance in accumulated other comprehensive income associated with the cash flow hedge-designated instruments addressing foreign exchange risks will be reclassified into the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations within the next twelve months.

Interest Rate and Investment Risk Management

        The Company issues debt, from time to time, to fund its operations and capital needs. Such borrowings can result in interest rate exposure. To manage the interest rate exposure and to minimize overall interest cost, the Company uses interest rate swaps to convert a portion of fixed-rate debt into variable-rate debt (via fair value hedge designation). The Company uses forward starting interest rate swaps and swaptions to manage interest rate exposure in periods prior to the anticipated issuance of fixed-rate debt (via cash flow hedge designation). The Company also utilizes interest rate swap and swaption contracts, a portion of which are designated as cash flow hedges, to manage interest rate and earnings exposure on cash and cash equivalents, and certain non-qualified deferred compensation liabilities.

        During the first six months of fiscal 2011, the Company entered into interest rate swaps designated as fair value hedges on $150 million principal amount of the 4.875% senior notes. The maturity dates of the interest rate swaps coincide with the maturity date of the notes. Under these contracts, the Company receives fixed amounts of interest applicable to the underlying notes and pays a floating amount based upon the three month U.S. Dollar London interbank offered rate.

        The Company utilizes an interest rate swap designated as a cash flow hedge to manage interest rate exposure on a notional amount of $40 million of cash and cash equivalents as of March 25, 2011 and September 24, 2010. The fair value of the contract was not material as of March 25, 2011 and September 24, 2010.

        The Company utilizes a swap to manage exposure related to certain of the Company's non-qualified deferred compensation liabilities. The notional amount of the swap was $29 million and $19 million at March 25, 2011 and September 24, 2010, respectively, and acts as an economic hedge of changes in a portion of the liabilities. Both the change in value of the swap contract and the non-qualified deferred compensation liabilities are recorded in selling, general, and administrative expense in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Commodity Hedges

        As part of managing the exposure to certain commodity price fluctuations, the Company utilizes commodity swap contracts, all of which are designated as cash flow hedges. The objective of these contracts is to minimize impacts to cash flows and profitability due to changes in prices of commodities used in production.

        At March 25, 2011 and September 24, 2010, the Company's commodity hedges had notional values of $128 million and $108 million, respectively. The Company expects that significantly all of the balance in accumulated other comprehensive income associated with the commodities hedges will be reclassified into the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations within the next twelve months.

Hedges of Net Investment

        The Company hedges its net investment in certain foreign operations using intercompany non-derivative financial instruments denominated in the same currencies. The aggregate notional value of these hedges was $2,054 million and $1,672 million at March 25, 2011 and September 24, 2010, respectively. The Company reclassified foreign exchange losses of $116 million and gains of $38 million

12. Fair Value Measurements

        Guidance on fair value measurement in ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, specifies a fair value hierarchy based upon the observability of the inputs utilized in valuation of certain assets and liabilities. Observable inputs (highest level) reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs (lowest level) reflect internally developed market assumptions. Fair value measurements are classified under the following hierarchy:

•

Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

•

Level 2—Quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities, or other inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

•

Level 3—Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets and liabilities. This includes certain pricing models, discounted cash flows methodologies and similar techniques that use significant unobservable inputs.

        As of March 25, 2011 and September 24, 2010, the Company did not have significant financial assets or liabilities that are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis.

        The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for the respective financial assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis:

•

Commodity swap contracts—Fair value of these assets and liabilities is determined using quoted prices on futures exchanges (level 1).

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (Continued)

12. Fair Value Measurements (Continued)

•

Interest rate swaps and swaptions—Fair value of these assets and liabilities is determined based on observable inputs other than quoted prices. The positions are primarily valued using market approach models that use readily observable interest rates as their basis (level 2).

•

Investment swap contracts—Fair value of these assets is determined based on observable inputs other than quoted prices. The positions are primarily valued using market approach models that use readily observable equity returns as their basis (level 2).

•

Foreign currency contracts—Fair value of these assets and liabilities is determined using the market approach. Values are based on observable market transactions of spot and forward currency rates (level 2).

•

Rabbi trust assets—Rabbi trust assets are principally comprised of comingled equity funds that are marked to fair value based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets (level 1) and fixed income securities that are marked to fair value based on quoted market prices or other pricing determinations based on the results of market approach valuation models using observable market data such as recently reported trades, bid and offer information, and benchmark securities (level 2).

        The majority of derivatives entered into by the Company are valued using the over-the-counter quoted market prices for similar instruments. The Company does not believe that fair values of these derivative instruments materially differ from the amounts that could be realized upon settlement or maturity.

        During the six months ended March 26, 2010, the Company used significant other observable inputs (level 2) to calculate a $12 million impairment charge related to the Dulmison connectors and fittings product line sold during the first quarter of fiscal 2010 for $12 million. See Note 3 for additional information.

        The net periodic benefit cost for postretirement benefit plans was immaterial for the quarters and six months ended March 25, 2011 and March 26, 2010.

        The Company anticipates that, at a minimum, it will make the minimum required contributions to its pension plans in fiscal 2011 of $4 million for U.S. plans and $67 million for non-U.S. plans. During the six months ended March 25, 2011, the Company contributed $1 million to its U.S. plans and $40 million to its non-U.S. plans.

        The Company expects to make contributions to its postretirement benefit plans of $2 million in fiscal 2011. During the six months ended March 25, 2011, Company contributions to its postretirement benefit plans were $1 million.

14. Income Taxes

        The Company recorded a tax provision of $74 million, for an effective income tax rate of 19.8%, and a tax provision of $187 million, for an effective income tax rate of 24.7%, for the quarter and six months ended March 25, 2011, respectively. The effective income tax rate for the quarter ended March 25, 2011 reflects tax benefits recognized in connection with anticipated fiscal 2011 profitability in certain entities operating in lower tax rate jurisdictions partially offset by accruals of interest related to uncertain tax positions. In addition, the effective income tax rate for the quarter ended March 25, 2011 reflects tax benefits associated with certain ADC related restructuring charges and acquisition costs as well as tax benefits related to a favorable tax settlement. The effective income tax rate for the six months ended March 25, 2011 reflects tax benefits recognized in connection with anticipated fiscal 2011 profitability in certain entities operating in lower tax rate jurisdictions partially offset by accruals of interest related to uncertain tax positions and tax benefits related to a favorable tax settlement.

        The Company recorded a tax provision of $135 million, for an effective income tax rate of 30.6%, and a tax provision of $204 million, for an effective income tax rate of 29.9% for the quarter and six months ended March 26, 2010, respectively. The effective income tax rate for the quarter and six months ended March 26, 2010 reflects a charge of $118 million primarily associated with certain proposed adjustments to prior year income tax returns and related accrued interest as well as an

income tax benefit of $72 million recognized in connection with a reduction in the valuation allowance associated with tax loss carryforwards in certain non-U.S. locations. In addition, the effective income tax rate for the quarter and six months ended March 26, 2010 reflects tax benefits recognized in connection with anticipated increased profitability in fiscal 2010 in certain entities operating in lower tax rate jurisdictions.

        The Company records accrued interest as well as penalties related to uncertain tax positions as part of the provision for income taxes. As of March 25, 2011, the Company had recorded $1,323 million of accrued interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet, of which $1,182 million was recorded in income taxes and $141 million was recorded in accrued and other current liabilities. During the quarter and six months ended March 25, 2011, the Company recognized $30 million and $67 million, respectively, of interest and penalties on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. As of September 24, 2010, the balance of accrued interest and penalties was $1,252 million, of which $1,119 million was recorded in income taxes and $133 million was recorded in accrued and other current liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

        In fiscal 2007, the IRS concluded its field examination of certain of Tyco International's U.S. federal income tax returns for the years 1997 through 2000. Tyco International is in the process of appealing certain tax adjustments proposed by the IRS related to this period. In fiscal 2008, the IRS commenced its field examination of certain Tyco International U.S. federal income tax returns for the years 2001 through 2004. Tyco International's U.S. federal tax filings for years subsequent to 2004 also remain open to examination by the IRS. See Note 10 for additional information regarding the status of IRS examinations.

        Although it is difficult to predict the timing or results of these pending examinations, it is the Company's understanding that Tyco International continues to make progress towards resolving a substantial number of proposed tax adjustments for the audit cycles of 1997 through 2000 and 2001 through 2004. Accordingly, Tyco International and the IRS could reach agreement on certain of these matters within the next twelve months. While the ultimate resolution is uncertain, based upon the current status of these examinations, the Company estimates that up to approximately $300 million of unrecognized tax benefits, excluding the impacts relating to accrued interest and penalties, could be resolved within the next twelve months.

        The Company is not aware of any other matters that would result in significant changes to the amount of unrecognized tax benefits reflected on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of March 25, 2011.

15. Other Income, Net

        The Company recorded net other income of $6 million and $75 million in the quarters ended March 25, 2011 and March 26, 2010, respectively, and $18 million and $83 million in the six months ended March 25, 2011 and March 26, 2010, respectively, primarily consisting of income pursuant to the Tax Sharing Agreement with Tyco International and Covidien. The $75 million of income in the second quarter of fiscal 2010 reflects a net increase to the receivable from Tyco International and Covidien

The following table sets forth the denominators of the basic and diluted earnings per share computations:

		For the Quarters Ended				For the Six Months Ended
		March 25, 2011		March 26, 2010		March 25, 2011		March 26, 2010
		(in millions)
Weighted-average shares outstanding:
	Basic		443		457		444		458
	Share options and restricted share awards		6		4		5		3
	Diluted		449		461		449		461

        Certain share options were not included in the computation of diluted earnings per share because the instruments' underlying exercise prices were greater than the average market prices of TE Connectivity's common shares and inclusion would be antidilutive. Such shares not included in the computation were 10 million and 18 million for the quarters ended March 25, 2011 and March 26, 2010, respectively, and 14 million and 20 million for the six months ended March 25, 2011 and March 26, 2010, respectively.

17. Shareholders' Equity

Common Shares

        Subject to certain conditions specified in the articles of association, the Company is authorized to increase its share capital by issuing new shares in aggregate not exceeding 50% of the Company's authorized shares. Additionally, in March 2011, the Company's shareholders reapproved and extended through March 9, 2013 the Company's board of directors' authorization to issue additional new shares, subject to certain conditions specified in the articles, in aggregate not exceeding 50% of the amount of the Company's authorized shares. Although the Company states its par value in Swiss Francs ("CHF"), it continues to use the U.S. Dollar as its reporting currency for preparing its Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Common Shares Held in Treasury

        At March 25, 2011, approximately 29 million common shares were held in treasury, of which 17 million were owned by a subsidiary of the Company. At September 24, 2010, approximately 25 million common shares were held in treasury, of which 21 million were owned by a subsidiary of the

17. Shareholders' Equity (Continued)

Company. Shares held both directly by the Company and by the subsidiary are presented as treasury shares on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

        In March 2011, the Company's shareholders approved the cancellation of 5,134,890 shares purchased under the Company's share repurchase program during the period from July 27, 2010 to December 24, 2010. The capital reduction by cancellation of shares is subject to a notice period and filing with the commercial register and is expected to be effective in the third quarter of fiscal 2011.

Contributed Surplus

        Contributed surplus, subject to certain conditions, is a distributable reserve.

Distributions to Shareholders

        Under Swiss law, distributions to shareholders made in the form of a reduction of registered share capital are exempt from Swiss withholding tax. Beginning on January 1, 2011, distributions to shareholders made out of reserves from capital contributions are also exempt from Swiss withholding tax. The Company has recorded contributed surplus as a free reserve established for Swiss Statutory purposes on its statutory balance sheet. Distributions or dividends on the Company's shares must be approved by the Company's shareholders.

        In March 2010, the Company's shareholders approved a cash distribution to shareholders in the form of a capital reduction to the par value of the Company's common shares of CHF 0.72 (equivalent to $0.64) per share, payable in four equal installments in each quarter beginning in the third quarter of fiscal 2010 through the second quarter of fiscal 2011. The Company paid the third and fourth installments of the distribution at a rate of $0.16 per share each during the quarters ended December 24, 2010 and March 25, 2011. These capital reductions reduced the par value of the Company's common shares from CHF 1.73 (equivalent to $1.60) to CHF 1.37 (equivalent to $1.28).

        In March 2011, the Company's shareholders approved a dividend payment to shareholders of CHF 0.68 (equivalent to $0.72) per share out of contributed surplus, payable in four equal quarterly installments of $0.18 per share beginning in the third quarter of fiscal 2011 through the second quarter of fiscal 2012 to shareholders of record on specified dates in each of the four quarters.

        Upon approval by the shareholders of a dividend payment or cash distribution in the form of a capital reduction, the Company records a liability with a corresponding charge to contributed surplus or common shares. At March 25, 2011 and September 24, 2010, the declared but unpaid portion of dividends and distributions recorded in accrued and other current liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets were $317 million and $142 million, respectively.

Share Repurchase Program

        During September 2010, the Company's board of directors authorized an increase in the share repurchase program from $2.0 billion to $2.75 billion. During the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2011, the Company purchased approximately 7 million and 8 million, respectively, of its common shares for $236 million and $281 million, respectively. During the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2010, the Company purchased approximately 6 million and 7 million, respectively, of its

        A summary of the Company's outstanding share option awards as of March 25, 2011 and changes during the six months then ended are presented below:

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) (Continued)

19. Share Plans (Continued)

        All share options and stock appreciation right ("SAR") awards related to ADC were converted into share options and SARs related to the Company's common shares. The conversion factor was the tender offer price of $12.75 per share divided by the volume weighted-average share price for TE Connectivity common shares for the 10-day period preceding the acquisition. The terms and conditions of the original grants included change-of-control provisions that accelerated vesting. As a result of those provisions, all ADC share options and SARs vested, and were fully expensed, prior to conversion to awards based on the Company's common shares. The number of converted SARs outstanding and the associated liability were insignificant at March 25, 2011.

        As a result of the exchange of ADC Awards for Company share options and SARs, the Company recognized $2 million of incremental compensation expense during the first six months of fiscal 2011. Those costs, which are included in the total share-based compensation expense above, are presented in acquisition and integration costs in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.

        The grant-date fair value of each share option grant is estimated using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model. Use of a valuation model requires management to make certain assumptions with respect to selected model inputs. Expected share price volatility was calculated based on the historical volatility of the stock of a composite of the Company's peers and implied volatility derived from exchange traded options on that same composite of peers. The average expected life was based on the contractual term of the option and expected employee exercise and post-vesting employment termination behavior. The risk-free interest rate is based on U.S. Treasury zero-coupon issues with a remaining term which approximates the expected life assumed at the date of grant. The expected annual dividend per share was based on the Company's expected dividend rate. The compensation expense recognized is net of estimated forfeitures. Forfeitures are estimated based on voluntary termination behavior, as well as an analysis of actual option forfeitures.

        The weighted-average grant-date fair value of options granted during the six months ended March 25, 2011 and the weighted-average assumptions the Company used in the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model for the six months then ended were as follows:

Weighted-average grant-date fair value	$	9.12
Assumptions:
Expected share price volatility		36	%
Risk free interest rate		1.2	%
Expected annual dividend per share	$	0.72
Expected life of options (in years)		5.1

ITEM 2.    MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

        The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and the accompanying notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report. The following discussion may contain forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates, and beliefs. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in these forward-looking statements as a result of many factors, including but not limited to those under the heading "Forward-Looking Information" and "Part II. Item 1A. Risk Factors."

        Our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in United States Dollars, in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP").

Overview

        As discussed in Note 1 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, in March 2011, the shareholders of Tyco Electronics Ltd. approved an amendment to our articles of association to change our name from "Tyco Electronics Ltd." to "TE Connectivity Ltd." The name change was effective March 10, 2011. Our ticker symbol "TEL" on the New York Stock Exchange remains unchanged.

        TE Connectivity Ltd. ("TE Connectivity" or the "Company", which may be referred to as "we," "us," or "our") is a global company that designs and manufactures approximately 500,000 products that connect and protect the flow of power and data inside millions of products used by consumers and industries. Our nearly 100,000 employees partner with customers in a broad array of industries from consumer electronics, energy, and healthcare to automotive, aerospace, and communication networks.

        Beginning with the first quarter of fiscal 2011, we operate through three reporting segments: Transportation Solutions, Communications and Industrial Solutions, and Network Solutions. Our former Transportation Connectivity segment was renamed Transportation Solutions during the second quarter of fiscal 2011. As discussed in Note 20 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, effective for the first quarter of fiscal 2011, we reorganized our management and segments to align the organization around our strategy. Our businesses in the former Specialty Products Group—Aerospace, Defense, and Marine; Medical; Circuit Protection; and Touch Solutions—have been moved into other segments. Also, the former Subsea Communications segment and the businesses associated with ADC Telecommunications, Inc. ("ADC"), acquired on December 8, 2010, have been included in the Network Solutions segment. Prior period segment results have been reclassified to conform to the new segment reporting structure.

Outlook

        Our business and operating results have been and will continue to be affected by worldwide economic conditions. Our sales are dependent on certain industry end markets that are impacted by consumer as well as industrial and infrastructure spending, and our operating results can be affected by changes in demand in those markets. Overall, our net sales increased 17.4% and 14.1% in the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2011, respectively, as compared to the same periods of fiscal 2010. On an organic basis, net sales growth was 7.4% and 9.4% in the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2011, respectively. Our sales into consumer based markets, particularly in the automotive end market in our Transportation Solutions segment, have improved relative to last year. Also, in industrial and infrastructure based markets, the industrial, telecom networks, data communications, enterprise networks, energy, and aerospace, defense, and marine end markets have improved, and our sales into these markets increased above prior year levels as these markets are impacted by capital spending by

46

companies and governments. These improvements were partially offset by declines in the subsea communications and consumer devices end markets.

        We are currently monitoring the situation in Japan and the implications of the recent earthquake and subsequent tsunami and aftershocks. Our facilities in Japan were not materially damaged; however, there have been disruptions in our customers' operations and the supply chain that supports their operations. We expect the majority of the impact to be in the third quarter of fiscal 2011. We estimate that sales and diluted earnings per share were negatively impacted by $20 million and $0.01 per share, respectively, in the second quarter of fiscal 2011. For the third quarter and full year of fiscal 2011, we currently expect sales to be negatively impacted by approximately $135 million and $220 million, respectively, and diluted earnings per share to be negatively impacted by approximately $0.09 and $0.14 per share, respectively.

        For fiscal 2011, which will be 53 weeks in length, we expect net sales to increase 16% to 18% from the fiscal 2010 levels and to be between $14.0 billion and $14.3 billion. This net sales growth is primarily due to strength in the automotive, network infrastructure, and industrial markets as well as the contribution of ADC. We expect diluted earnings per share from continuing operations to be in the range of $2.73 to $2.85 per share for fiscal 2011, with approximately $0.05 per share attributable to the additional week. We expect net sales in the third quarter of fiscal 2011 to be between $3.50 billion and $3.65 billion, an increase of 13% to 18% over the same period of fiscal 2010. In the third quarter of fiscal 2011, we expect diluted earnings per share from continuing operations to be in the range of $0.65 and $0.71 per share. We expect net sales in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011 to increase 22% to 27% over net sales in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010 and to be between $3.83 billion and $3.98 billion. We expect diluted earnings per share from continuing operations to be in the range of $0.82 and $0.88 per share in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011. This outlook includes the impact of the earthquake in Japan discussed above and assumes current foreign exchange and commodity rates.

        We are monitoring the current environment and its potential effects on our customers and on the end markets we serve. Additionally, we continue to closely manage our costs in order to respond to changing conditions. We are also managing our capital resources and monitoring capital availability to ensure that we have sufficient resources to fund our future capital needs. (See further discussion in "Liquidity and Capital Resources.")

Acquisition

        In July 2010, we entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement") to acquire 100% of the outstanding stock of ADC, a provider of broadband communications network connectivity products and related solutions. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, we commenced a tender offer through a subsidiary to purchase all of the issued and outstanding shares of ADC common stock at a purchase price of $12.75 per share in cash followed by a merger of our subsidiary with and into ADC, with ADC surviving as an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary. On December 8, 2010, we acquired 86.8% of the outstanding common shares of ADC. On December 9, 2010, we exercised our option under the Merger Agreement to purchase additional shares from ADC that, when combined with the shares purchased in the tender offer, were sufficient to give us ownership of more than 90% of the outstanding ADC common shares. On December 9, 2010, upon effecting a short-form merger under Minnesota law, we owned 100% of the outstanding shares of ADC for a total purchase price of approximately $717 million in cash (net of cash acquired of $546 million) and $22 million representing the fair value of ADC share-based awards exchanged for TE Connectivity share options and stock appreciation rights.

        The acquisition was made to accelerate our growth potential in the global broadband connectivity market. The combined organization will offer a complete product portfolio across every major geographic market. It also adds ADC's Distributed Antenna System products, which will expand our

47

wireless connectivity portfolio to provide greater mobile coverage and capacity solutions to carrier and enterprise customers as demand for mobile data continues to expand. We expect to realize cost savings and other synergies through operational efficiencies including consolidation of manufacturing, marketing, and general and administrative functions. ADC's businesses are reported as part of our Network Solutions segment from the date of acquisition.

        For the quarter ended March 25, 2011, ADC contributed net sales of $279 million and an operating loss of $31 million to our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The operating loss included charges of $30 million associated with the amortization of acquisition accounting-related fair value adjustments primarily related to inventories and customer order backlog, restructuring charges of $17 million, and acquisition costs of $1 million.

        During the period from December 9, 2010 to March 25, 2011, ADC contributed net sales of $330 million and an operating loss of $88 million to our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The operating loss included restructuring charges of $52 million, charges of $37 million associated with the amortization of acquisition accounting-related fair value adjustments primarily related to inventories and customer order backlog, integration costs of $10 million, and acquisition costs of $8 million.

        See Note 4 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information regarding the acquisition.

Acquisition Related Restructuring

        During fiscal 2011, we initiated a restructuring plan associated with the integration of ADC, which is expected to generate cost efficiencies in our consolidated operations. We expect to incur restructuring charges of approximately $80 million through fiscal 2012, primarily related to employee severance and benefits. As discussed above, in the first six months of fiscal 2011, we recorded charges of $52 million related to this plan. Cash spending related to this plan was $17 million in the first six months of fiscal 2011, and we expect total cash spending to be approximately $55 million in fiscal 2011. Annualized cost savings related to these actions are expected to be approximately $100 million, of which approximately 40% is expected to be realized in fiscal 2011.

Manufacturing Simplification

        We plan to continue to simplify our global manufacturing footprint by migrating facilities from higher-cost to lower-cost countries, consolidating within countries, and transferring product lines to lower-cost countries. These initiatives are designed to help us maintain our competitiveness in the industry, improve our operating leverage, and position us for profitability growth in the years ahead.

        In connection with our manufacturing simplification plan, we expect to incur restructuring charges of approximately $15 million during fiscal 2011. In the first six months of fiscal 2011, cash spending related to restructuring was $37 million, and we expect total spending to be approximately $80 million in fiscal 2011. Annualized cost savings related to these actions are expected to be approximately $25 million.

Divestiture

        In December 2009, we completed the sale of the Dulmison connectors and fittings product line which was part of our energy business in the Network Solutions segment for net cash proceeds of $12 million. In connection with the divestiture, we recorded a pre-tax impairment charge related to long-lived assets and a pre-tax loss on sale totaling $13 million in the first six months of fiscal 2010.

        The impairment charge and loss on sale are reflected in restructuring and other charges, net on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. We have presented the long-lived asset

48

impairment, the loss on sale, and the operations of the Dulmison connectors and fittings product line in continuing operations due to immateriality.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

        Organic net sales growth, which is discussed in Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, is a non-GAAP financial measure. The difference between reported net sales growth (the most comparable GAAP measure) and organic net sales growth (the non-GAAP measure) consists of the impact from foreign currency exchange rates, acquisitions, and divestitures. Organic net sales growth is a useful measure of the underlying results and trends in our business. It excludes items that are not completely under management's control, such as the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates, and items that do not reflect the underlying growth of the company, such as acquisition and divestiture activity.

        We believe organic net sales growth provides useful information to investors because it reflects the underlying growth from the ongoing activities of our business. Furthermore, it provides investors with a view of our operations from management's perspective. We use organic net sales growth to monitor and evaluate performance, as it is an important measure of the underlying results of our operations. Management uses organic net sales growth together with GAAP measures such as net sales growth and operating income in its decision making processes related to the operations of our reporting segments and our overall company. We believe that investors benefit from having access to the same financial measures that management uses in evaluating operations. The discussion and analysis of organic net sales growth in Results of Operations below utilizes organic net sales growth as management does internally. Because organic net sales growth calculations may vary among other companies, organic net sales growth amounts presented below may not be comparable with similarly titled measures of other companies. Organic net sales growth is a non-GAAP financial measure that is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for GAAP measures. The primary limitation of this measure is that it excludes items that have an impact on our net sales. This limitation is best addressed by evaluating organic net sales growth in combination with our GAAP net sales. The tables presented in Results of Operations below provide reconciliations of organic net sales growth to net sales growth calculated under GAAP.

Results of Operations

Consolidated Operations

        Key business factors that influenced our results of operations during the periods discussed in this report include:

•

Raw material prices.  We expect to purchase approximately 175 million pounds of copper and approximately 170,000 troy ounces of gold in fiscal 2011. Current year copper and gold prices have increased from prior year levels. The following table sets forth the average prices incurred related to copper and gold during the periods presented:

		For the Quarters Ended				For the Six Months Ended
	Measure	March 25, 2011		March 26, 2010		March 25, 2011		March 26, 2010
Copper	Lb.	$	4.10	$	3.17	$	3.92	$	3.09
Gold	Troy oz.	$	1,302	$	1,077	$	1,286	$	1,072

•

Foreign exchange.  Approximately 56% of our net sales are invoiced in currencies other than the U.S. Dollar. Our results of operations are influenced by changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Increases or decreases in the value of the U.S. Dollar, compared to other currencies, will directly affect our reported results as we translate those currencies into U.S. Dollars at the end of each fiscal period. The percentage of net sales in the first six months of fiscal 2011 by major currencies invoiced was as follows:

U.S. Dollar	44	%
Euro	30
Japanese Yen	8
Chinese Renminbi	6
Korean Won	3
Brazilian Real	2
British Pound Sterling	2
All others	5
Total	100	%

        Net Sales.    Net sales increased $515 million, or 17.4%, to $3,472 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2011 from $2,957 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2010. In the first six months of fiscal 2011, net sales increased $823 million, or 14.1%, to $6,672 million, from $5,849 million. In the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2011, ADC contributed net sales of $279 million and $330 million, respectively. On an organic basis, net sales increased $219 million, or 7.4%, in the second quarter of fiscal 2011 and $550 million, or 9.4%, in the first six months of fiscal 2011. These increases were primarily due to growth in the Transportation Solutions and Communications and Industrial Solutions segments. Foreign currency exchange rates increased net sales by $43 million, or 1.5%, in the second quarter of fiscal 2011 and $9 million, or 0.2%, in the first six months of fiscal 2011. Price erosion adversely affected net sales by $67 million and $127 million in the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2011, respectively. See further discussion below under Results of Operations by Segment.

        Gross Margin.    Gross margin increased $86 million to $1,044 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2011 from $958 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2010. Gross margin as a percentage of net sales decreased to 30.1% in the second quarter of fiscal 2011 from 32.4% in the same period of fiscal 2010. The decrease was due to price erosion, increases in material costs, and charges associated with the amortization of acquisition accounting-related fair value adjustments primarily related to inventories and customer order backlog, partially offset by volume increases and improved manufacturing productivity.

52

        In the first six months of fiscal 2011, gross margin increased $266 million to $2,065 million from $1,799 million in the first six months of fiscal 2010. Gross margin as a percentage of net sales was 31.0% in the first six months of fiscal 2011 as compared to 30.8% in the first six months of fiscal 2010. The increase was due to higher sales and, to a lesser degree, improved manufacturing productivity, largely offset by price erosion, increases in material costs, and charges associated with the amortization of acquisition accounting-related fair value adjustments primarily related to inventories and customer order backlog.

        Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses.    Selling, general, and administrative expenses increased $39 million to $445 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2011 from $406 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2010. In the first six months of fiscal 2011, selling, general, and administrative expenses increased $73 million to $847 million from $774 million in the first six months of fiscal 2010. The increases were primarily related to increased selling expenses to support higher sales levels. Selling, general, and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales were 12.8% and 13.7% in the second quarters of fiscal 2011 and 2010, respectively, and 12.7% and 13.2% in the first six months of fiscal 2011 and 2010, respectively.

        Research, Development, and Engineering Expenses.    Research, development, and engineering expenses as a percentage of net sales were 5.2% in the second quarter of fiscal 2011 as compared to 4.8% in the second quarter of fiscal 2010. In the first six months of fiscal 2011, research, development, and engineering expenses as a percentage of net sales were 5.1% as compared to 4.8% in the first six months of fiscal 2010. The increases were a result of our continued focus on developing future technologies within our businesses.

        Acquisition and Integration Costs.    In connection with the ADC acquisition, we incurred acquisition and integration costs of $1 million and $18 million during the quarter and six months ended March 25, 2011, respectively.

        Restructuring and Other Charges, Net.    Net restructuring and other charges were $13 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2011 as compared to $12 million in the same period of fiscal 2010. In the first six months of fiscal 2011, net restructuring and other charges were $52 million as compared to $78 million in the first six months of fiscal 2010. In the first six months of fiscal 2011, total restructuring and other charges, including amounts reflected in cost of sales, decreased $23 million to $52 million from $75 million in the first six months of fiscal 2010. Fiscal 2011 actions were primarily associated with the acquisition of ADC and related headcount reductions in the Network Solutions segment. Fiscal 2010 actions primarily related to headcount reductions in the Transportation Solutions segment. As discussed above, charges in the first six months of fiscal 2010 included a long-lived asset impairment and a loss on sale totaling $13 million related to the divestiture of the Dulmison connectors and fittings product line which was part of the energy business in our Network Solutions segment. See Note 3 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information regarding net restructuring and other charges.

        Operating Income.    Operating income was $405 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2011 as compared to $398 million in the same period of fiscal 2010. As discussed above, the second quarter of fiscal 2011 results included charges of $30 million associated with the amortization of acquisition accounting-related fair value adjustments primarily related to inventories and customer order backlog, net restructuring and other charges of $13 million, and acquisition and integration costs of $1 million. Second quarter of fiscal 2010 results included net restructuring and other charges of $12 million. Excluding these items, the increase in operating income resulted from increased volume and improved manufacturing productivity, partially offset by price erosion, increases in material costs, and unfavorable product mix.

53

        Operating income was $805 million in the first six months of fiscal 2011 as compared to $667 million in the same period of fiscal 2010. As discussed above, the first six months of fiscal 2011 results included net restructuring and other charges of $52 million, charges of $37 million associated with the amortization of acquisition accounting-related fair value adjustments primarily related to inventories and customer order backlog, and acquisition and integration costs of $18 million. The first six months of fiscal 2010 results included net restructuring and other charges of $75 million. Excluding these items, the increase in operating income resulted from increased sales levels and related gross margin, and higher gross margins as a percentage of sales due to increased volume and cost reduction benefits from restructuring actions, partially offset by price erosion, increases in material costs, and unfavorable product mix.

Quarter Ended March 25, 2011 Compared to Quarter Ended March 26, 2010

        Network Solutions' net sales increased $305 million, or 50.7%, to $907 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2011 from $602 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2010. In the second quarter of fiscal 2011, the acquisition of ADC increased sales by $279 million. Organic net sales increased $15 million, or 2.6%, in the second quarter of fiscal 2011 from the same period of fiscal 2010. The strengthening of certain foreign currencies positively affected net sales by $11 million, or 1.7%, in the second quarter of fiscal 2011 as compared to the same period of fiscal 2010.

        In the telecom networks end market, our organic net sales increase of 32.9% in the second quarter of fiscal 2011 as compared to the same period of fiscal 2010 was largely due to increased fiber network investment by telecommunications companies, particularly in the EMEA and South America regions. In the second quarter of fiscal 2011, our organic net sales increased 11.6% in the energy end market as compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2010 primarily as a result of a continuing strong recovery in the industrial and power distribution markets, particularly in the EMEA region, as well as minor favorable seasonal impacts. Our organic sales in the enterprise networks end market increased 19.7% in the second quarter of fiscal 2011 from fiscal 2010 levels due to increased data center investment, particularly in the EMEA and Asia-Pacific regions. In the second quarter of fiscal 2011, the subsea

59

communications end market's organic net sales decreased 28.4% as compared to the same period of fiscal 2010 due to lower levels of project activity.

        In the second quarter of fiscal 2011, Network Solutions' operating income decreased $39 million to $48 million from $87 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2010. The decrease was primarily the result of $48 million of charges related to the acquisition of ADC, including $30 million of charges associated with the amortization of acquisition accounting-related fair value adjustments primarily related to inventories and customer order backlog, $17 million of restructuring charges, and $1 million of acquisition and integration costs. Excluding these items, operating income increased due to higher sales levels, partially offset by unfavorable product mix and price erosion.

Six Months Ended March 25, 2011 Compared to Six Months Ended March 26, 2010

        In the first six months of fiscal 2011, Network Solutions' net sales increased $348 million, or 28.4%, to $1,573 million from $1,225 million in the first six months of fiscal 2010. The acquisition of ADC increased sales by $330 million in the first six months of fiscal 2011. The divestiture of the Dulmison connectors and fittings product line in fiscal 2010 resulted in a decrease in sales of $12 million in the first six months of fiscal 2011 as compared to the same period of fiscal 2010. Organic net sales increased $25 million, or 2.1%, in the first six months of fiscal 2011 from the same period of fiscal 2010. The strengthening of certain foreign currencies positively impacted net sales by $5 million, or 0.3%, in the first six months of fiscal 2011 as compared to the first six months of fiscal 2010.

        Our organic net sales increase of 33.3% in the telecom networks end market in the first six months of fiscal 2011 as compared to the same period of fiscal 2010 was largely due to increased fiber network investment by telecommunications companies, particularly in the EMEA and South America regions. In the energy end market, our organic net sales increased 12.2% in the first six months of fiscal 2011 as compared to the first six months of fiscal 2010 primarily due to a continuing strong recovery in the industrial and power distribution markets. Our organic sales in the enterprise networks end market increased 14.7% in the first six months of fiscal 2011 from fiscal 2010 levels as a result of increased data center investment, particularly in the EMEA and Asia-Pacific regions. The subsea communications end market's organic net sales decreased 28.5% in the first six months of fiscal 2011 as compared to the first six months of fiscal 2010 as a result of lower levels of project activity.

        Network Solutions' operating income decreased $64 million to $78 million in the first six months of fiscal 2011 from $142 million in the same period of fiscal 2010. During the first six months of fiscal 2011, segment results included $107 million of charges related to the acquisition of ADC, including $52 million of restructuring charges, $37 million of charges associated with the amortization of acquisition accounting-related fair value adjustments primarily related to inventories and customer order backlog, and $18 million of acquisition and integration costs. Segment results included $19 million of net restructuring and other charges during the first six months of fiscal 2010. Excluding these charges, operating income increased due to higher sales levels, partially offset by unfavorable product mix and price erosion.

Non-Operating Items

Other Income, Net

        We recorded net other income of $6 million and $75 million in the quarters ended March 25, 2011 and March 26, 2010, respectively, and $18 million and $83 million in the six months ended March 25, 2011 and March 26, 2010, respectively, primarily consisting of income pursuant to the Tax Sharing Agreement with Tyco International Ltd. ("Tyco International") and Covidien plc ("Covidien"). The $75 million of income in the second quarter of fiscal 2010 reflects a net increase to the receivable from Tyco International and Covidien primarily related to certain proposed adjustments to prior period income tax returns and related accrued interest.

60

Income Taxes

        We recorded a tax provision of $74 million, for an effective income tax rate of 19.8%, and a tax provision of $187 million, for an effective income tax rate of 24.7%, for the quarter and six months ended March 25, 2011, respectively. The effective income tax rate for the quarter ended March 25, 2011 reflects tax benefits recognized in connection with anticipated fiscal 2011 profitability in certain entities operating in lower tax rate jurisdictions partially offset by accruals of interest related to uncertain tax positions. In addition, the effective income tax rate for the quarter ended March 25, 2011 reflects tax benefits associated with certain ADC related restructuring charges and acquisition costs as well as tax benefits related to a favorable tax settlement. The effective income tax rate for the six months ended March 25, 2011 reflects tax benefits recognized in connection with anticipated fiscal 2011 profitability in certain entities operating in lower tax rate jurisdictions partially offset by accruals of interest related to uncertain tax positions and tax benefits related to a favorable tax settlement.

        We recorded a tax provision of $135 million, for an effective income tax rate of 30.6%, and a tax provision of $204 million, for an effective income tax rate of 29.9% for the quarter and six months ended March 26, 2010, respectively. The effective income tax rate for the quarter and six months ended March 26, 2010 reflects a charge of $118 million primarily associated with certain proposed adjustments to prior year income tax returns and related accrued interest as well as an income tax benefit of $72 million recognized in connection with a reduction in the valuation allowance associated with tax loss carryforwards in certain non-U.S. locations. In addition, the effective income tax rate for the quarter and six months ended March 26, 2010 reflects tax benefits recognized in connection with anticipated increased profitability in fiscal 2010 in certain entities operating in lower tax rate jurisdictions.

        Our ability to fund our future capital needs will be affected by our ability to continue to generate cash from operations and may be affected by our ability to access the capital markets, money markets, or other sources of funding, as well as the capacity and terms of our financing arrangements. We believe that cash generated from operations and, to the extent necessary, these other sources of potential funding will be sufficient to meet our anticipated capital needs for the foreseeable future. We may use excess cash to reduce our outstanding debt, including through the possible repurchase of our debt in accordance with applicable law, to purchase a portion of our common shares pursuant to our authorized share repurchase program, to pay distributions or dividends on our common shares, or to acquire strategic businesses or product lines. The cost or availability of future funding may be impacted by financial market conditions. We will continue to monitor financial markets, to respond as necessary to changing conditions.

Net cash provided by operating activities		$	557		$	500		$	711		$	830

        Net cash provided by continuing operating activities increased to $557 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2011 from $500 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2010. The increase resulted primarily from changes in working capital, partially offset by higher income taxes paid in the second quarter of fiscal 2011 as compared to the same period of fiscal 2010. In the first six months of fiscal 2011, net cash provided by continuing operating activities decreased to $711 million from $830 million in the first six months of fiscal 2010. The decrease resulted from the build-up of inventories and the reduction of accrued and other current liabilities, primarily related to employee compensation, partially offset by the impact of higher income levels.

        The amount of income taxes paid, net of refunds, was $61 million and $32 million during the second quarters of fiscal 2011 and 2010, respectively, and $69 million and $48 million during the first six months of fiscal 2011 and 2010, respectively.

        We continue to fund capital expenditures to support new programs and to invest in machinery and our manufacturing facilities to further enhance productivity and manufacturing capabilities. Capital spending increased $33 million to $114 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2011 as compared to $81 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2010. In the first six months of fiscal 2011, capital spending increased $74 million to $231 million from $157 million in the first six months of fiscal 2010. We expect fiscal 2011 capital spending levels to be approximately 4% of net sales.

        In the first six months of fiscal 2011, we acquired ADC for a total purchase price of approximately $717 million in cash (net of cash acquired of $546 million) and $22 million of other non-cash consideration. We have entered into binding sales agreements related to the sale of certain assets acquired in connection with the acquisition of ADC. In the third quarter of fiscal 2011, we expect to receive proceeds of approximately $100 million in connection with the sale of these assets.

        During the second quarter of fiscal 2010, we acquired Sensitive Object for a purchase price of $61 million, net of cash acquired, which included $6 million of contingent consideration to be paid during fiscal 2011.

        We received cash proceeds of $12 million related to the sale of the Dulmison connectors and fittings product line in the first six months of fiscal 2010.

        Total debt at March 25, 2011 and September 24, 2010 was $2,744 million and $2,413 million, respectively. See Note 8 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information regarding debt.

        During December 2010, Tyco Electronics Group S.A. ("TEGSA"), our wholly-owned subsidiary, issued $250 million principal amount of 4.875% senior notes due January 15, 2021. The notes were offered and sold pursuant to an effective registration statement on Form S-3 filed on July 1, 2008, as amended on June 26, 2009. Interest on the notes accrues from the issuance date at a rate of 4.875% per year and is payable semi-annually on January 15 and July 15 of each year, beginning July 15, 2011. The notes are TEGSA's unsecured senior obligations and rank equally in right of payment with all existing and any future senior indebtedness of TEGSA and senior to any subordinated indebtedness that TEGSA may incur. The notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed as to payment on an unsecured senior basis by TE Connectivity Ltd. Net proceeds from the issuance were approximately $249 million.

        In the first quarter of fiscal 2011, in connection with the acquisition of ADC, we assumed $653 million of convertible subordinated notes due 2013, 2015, and 2017. Under the terms of the indentures governing these convertible subordinated notes, following the acquisition of ADC, the right to convert the notes into shares of ADC common stock changed to the right to convert the notes into cash. See Note 4 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information on the ADC acquisition. In December 2010, our ADC subsidiary commenced offers to purchase $650 million aggregate principal amount of the convertible subordinated notes at par plus accrued interest, pursuant to the terms of the indentures for the notes. The offers to purchase expired in January 2011. Promptly thereafter, $198 million principal amount of the convertible subordinated notes due 2013, $55 million principal amount of the convertible subordinated notes due 2015, and $218 million principal amount of the convertible subordinated notes due 2017 were purchased for an aggregate purchase price of $471 million. All of the convertible subordinated notes purchased by ADC have been cancelled.

        In connection with an internal reorganization related to the acquisition of ADC, on March 22, 2011, our ADC subsidiary commenced offers to purchase $177 million aggregate principal amount of its convertible subordinated notes due 2015 and 2017 at par plus accrued interest, pursuant to the terms of the indentures for the notes. The offers to purchase expired on April 19, 2011. Promptly thereafter, $81 million principal amount of the convertible subordinated notes due 2015 and $7 million principal amount of the convertible subordinated notes due 2017 were purchased for an aggregate purchase price of $89 million. All of the convertible subordinated notes purchased by ADC have been cancelled.

        In April 2007, TEGSA entered into a five-year unsecured senior revolving credit facility ("Credit Facility"). At March 25, 2011, the total effective commitment under the Credit Facility was $1,425 million. TEGSA had no borrowings under the Credit Facility at March 25, 2011 and September 24, 2010.

        Our Credit Facility contains a financial ratio covenant providing that if our ratio of Consolidated Total Debt (as defined in the Credit Facility) to Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Credit Facility) for the then most recently concluded period of four consecutive fiscal quarters exceeds 3.5 to 1.0, an Event of Default (as defined in the Credit Facility) is triggered. The Credit Facility and our other debt agreements contain additional customary covenants. None of our covenants are presently considered restrictive to our operations. As of March 25, 2011, we were in compliance with all of our Credit Facility and debt covenants and believe that we will continue to be in compliance with these covenants for the foreseeable future.

        TEGSA's payment obligations under its senior notes, commercial paper, and Credit Facility are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by TE Connectivity Ltd. Neither TE Connectivity Ltd. nor any of its subsidiaries provides a guarantee as to ADC's payment obligations under its convertible notes.

        Payment of cash distributions to shareholders were $70 million and $72 million in the second quarters of fiscal 2011 and 2010, respectively, and $141 million and $146 million in the first six months of fiscal 2011 and fiscal 2010, respectively. In March 2010, our shareholders approved a cash distribution to shareholders in the form of a capital reduction to the par value of our common shares of 0.72 Swiss Francs ("CHF") (equivalent to $0.64) per share, payable in four equal installments in each quarter beginning in the third quarter of fiscal 2010 through the second quarter of fiscal 2011. We paid the third and fourth installments of the distribution at a rate of $0.16 per share each during the quarters ended December 24, 2010 and March 25, 2011. These capital reductions reduced the par value of our common shares from CHF 1.73 (equivalent to $1.60) to CHF 1.37 (equivalent to $1.28). In March 2011, our shareholders approved a dividend payment to shareholders of CHF 0.68 (equivalent to $0.72) per share out of contributed surplus, payable in four equal quarterly installments of $0.18 per share beginning in the third quarter of fiscal 2011 through the second quarter of fiscal 2012 to shareholders of record on specified dates in each of the four quarters.

        During September 2010, our board of directors authorized an increase in the share repurchase program from $2.0 billion to $2.75 billion. During the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2011, we purchased approximately 7 million and 8 million, respectively, of our common shares for $236 million and $281 million, respectively. During the second quarter and first six months of fiscal 2010, we purchased approximately 6 million and 7 million, respectively, of our common shares for $147 million and $165 million, respectively. Since inception of the share repurchase program, we have purchased approximately 69 million shares for $2,179 million.

Backlog

        At March 25, 2011, we had a backlog of unfilled orders of $3,217 million compared to a backlog of $2,966 million at September 24, 2010. Backlog by reportable segment was as follows:

	March 25, 2011		September 24, 2010

Commitments and Contingencies

Income Tax Matters

        In prior years, in connection with the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") audit of various fiscal years, Tyco International submitted to the IRS proposed adjustments to prior period U.S. federal income tax returns resulting in a reduction in the taxable income previously filed. The IRS accepted substantially all of the proposed adjustments for fiscal 1997 through 2000 for which the IRS had completed its field work. On the basis of previously accepted amendments, we have determined that acceptance of adjustments presented for additional periods through fiscal 2006 is more likely than not to be accepted and, accordingly, have recorded them, as well as the impacts of the adjustments accepted by the IRS, on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

        As our tax return positions continue to be updated for periods prior to separation, additional adjustments may be identified and recorded on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. While the final adjustments cannot be determined until the income tax return amendment process is completed, we believe that any resulting adjustments will not have a material impact on our results of operations, financial position, or cash flows. Additionally, adjustments may be recorded to shareholders' equity in the future for the impact of filing final or amended income tax returns in certain jurisdictions where those returns include a combination of Tyco International, Covidien, and/or our subsidiaries for the periods prior to the separation.

        During fiscal 2007, the IRS concluded its field examination of certain of Tyco International's U.S. federal income tax returns for the years 1997 through 2000 and issued Revenue Agent Reports which reflect the IRS' determination of proposed tax adjustments for the 1997 through 2000 period. Tyco International has appealed certain proposed adjustments totaling approximately $1 billion. Additionally, the IRS proposed civil fraud penalties against Tyco International arising from alleged actions of former executives in connection with certain intercompany transfers of stock in 1998 and 1999. Based upon statutory guidelines, Tyco International estimates the proposed penalties could range between $30 million and $50 million, and it is our understanding that Tyco International is vigorously opposing the assertion of any such penalties. The penalty is asserted against a prior subsidiary of Tyco International that was distributed to us in connection with the separation. Any penalty ultimately imposed upon our subsidiary would be subject to sharing with Tyco International and Covidien under the Tax Sharing Agreement. It is our understanding that Tyco International continues to make progress towards resolving a substantial number of the proposed tax adjustments for the years 1997 through 2000; however, several significant matters remain in dispute. The primary issues in dispute involve the tax treatment of certain intercompany transactions. If Tyco International is not able to resolve these contested adjustments through the IRS appeals process, it may choose to litigate the disputed issues. In addition, Tyco International could settle with the IRS and pay any related deficiencies for the undisputed tax adjustments within the next twelve months.

        The IRS continues to audit certain Tyco International income tax returns for the years 2001 through 2004 and is nearing completion of its fieldwork for this period. It is possible that the audit for the years 2001 through 2004 will conclude within the next twelve months. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2009, Tyco International settled a matter with the IRS concerning certain tax deductions claimed on Tyco International's income tax returns for the years 2001 through 2004. We have reflected $244 million of liabilities related to the audits of Tyco International's income tax returns for 1997 through 2000 and 2001 through 2004 in accrued and other current liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at March 25, 2011 and September 24, 2010 as certain of these matters could be resolved within one year. It is anticipated that the IRS will commence its audit of certain Tyco International income tax returns for the years 2005 through 2007 in fiscal 2011.

        We continue to believe that the amounts recorded in our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements relating to the matters discussed above are appropriate. However, the ultimate resolution is

66

uncertain and could result in a material impact to our results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.

Legal Matters

        In the ordinary course of business, we are subject to various legal proceedings and claims, including patent infringement claims, product liability matters, employment disputes, tax matters, disputes on agreements, other commercial disputes, environmental matters, and antitrust claims. Management believes that these legal proceedings and claims likely will be resolved over an extended period of time. Although it is not feasible to predict the outcome of these proceedings, based upon our experience, current information, and applicable law, we do not expect that the outcome of these proceedings, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial position, or cash flows. However, one or more of the proceedings could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial position, or cash flows in a future period. See Note 10 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information regarding legal proceedings.

Matters Related to Our Former Wireless Systems Business

        Certain liabilities and contingencies related to our former Wireless Systems business were retained by us when this business was sold in fiscal 2009. These include certain retained liabilities related to the State of New York contract and a contingent purchase price commitment related to the acquisition of Com-Net by the Wireless Systems business in 2001. See additional information below.

State of New York Contract

        In September 2005, we were awarded a twenty-year lease contract with the State of New York (the "State") to construct, operate, and maintain a statewide wireless communications network for use by state and municipal first responders. In August 2008, we were served by the State with a default notice related to the first regional network, pursuant to the contract. Under the terms of the contract, we had 45 days to rectify the purported deficiencies noted by the State. In October 2008, we informed the State that all technical deficiencies had been remediated and the system was operating in accordance with the contract specifications and certified the system ready for testing. The State conducted further testing during November and December 2008. In January 2009, the State notified us that, in the State's opinion, we had not fully remediated the issues cited by the State and it had determined that we were in default of the contract and that it had exercised its right to terminate the contract. The State contends that it has the right under the contract to recoup costs incurred by the State in conjunction with the implementation of the network, and as a result of this contention, in January 2009, the State drew down $50 million against an irrevocable standby letter of credit funded by us. The State has the ability to draw up to an additional $50 million against the standby letter of credit, although we dispute that the State has any basis to do so.

        In February 2009, we filed a claim in the New York Court of Claims, seeking over $100 million in damages, and alleging a number of causes of action, including breach of contract, unjust enrichment, defamation, conversion, breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing, the imposition of a constructive trust, and seeking a declaration that the State terminated the contract "for convenience." In September 2009, the Court granted the State's motion to dismiss all counts of the complaint, with the exception of the breach of contract claim and a claim for breach of warranty in connection with the State's drawdown on the $50 million letter of credit. In November 2009, the State filed an answer to the complaint and counterclaim asserting breach of contract and alleging that the State has incurred damages in excess of $275 million. We moved to dismiss the counterclaim in February 2010, and in June 2010 the Court denied our motion. We filed our answer to the State's counterclaim in July 2010.

67

We believe that the counterclaim is without merit and intend to vigorously pursue our claims in this matter. A trial date has been set for October 2011.

Com-Net

        At March 25, 2011, we had a contingent purchase price commitment of $80 million related to our fiscal 2001 acquisition of Com-Net. This represents the maximum amount payable to the former shareholders of Com-Net only after the construction and installation of a communications system for the State of Florida is finished and the State of Florida has approved the system based on the guidelines set forth in the contract. Under the terms of the purchase and sale agreement, we do not believe we have any obligation to the sellers. However, the sellers have contested our position and initiated a lawsuit in June 2006 in the Court of Common Pleas in Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, which is in the motion pleading and discovery phase. A liability for this contingency has not been recorded on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as we do not believe that any payment is probable or reasonably estimable at this time.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

        Certain of our segments have guaranteed the performance of third parties and provided financial guarantees for uncompleted work and financial commitments. The terms of these guarantees vary with end dates ranging from fiscal 2011 through the completion of such transactions. The guarantees would be triggered in the event of nonperformance, and the potential exposure for nonperformance under the guarantees would not have a material effect on our results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.

        In disposing of assets or businesses, we often provide representations, warranties, and/or indemnities to cover various risks including unknown damage to the assets, environmental risks involved in the sale of real estate, liability for investigation and remediation of environmental contamination at waste disposal sites and manufacturing facilities, and unidentified tax liabilities and legal fees related to periods prior to disposition. We do not have the ability to estimate the potential liability from such indemnities because they relate to unknown conditions; however, we have no reason to believe that these uncertainties would have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.

        At March 25, 2011, we had outstanding letters of credit and letters of guarantee in the amount of $453 million, of which $50 million was related to our contract with the State of New York. In January 2009, the State drew down $50 million against an irrevocable standby letter of credit funded by us. Although we dispute that the State has any basis to do so, the State has the ability to draw up to an additional $50 million against the standby letter of credit which could result in additional charges and could have a significant adverse effect on our results of operations, financial position, and cash flows.

        We have recorded liabilities for known indemnifications included as part of environmental liabilities. See Note 10 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for a discussion of these liabilities.

        In the normal course of business, we are liable for contract completion and product performance. In the opinion of management, except for the potential claims related to the contract with the State of New York discussed above, such obligations will not significantly affect our results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.

        Pursuant to the Separation and Distribution Agreement and Tax Sharing Agreement, upon separation, we entered into certain guarantee commitments and indemnifications with Tyco International and Covidien. Under these agreements, principally the Tax Sharing Agreement, Tyco International, Covidien, and TE Connectivity share 27%, 42%, and 31%, respectively, of certain

68

contingent liabilities relating to unresolved pre-separation tax matters of Tyco International. The effect of the Tax Sharing Agreement is to indemnify us for 69% of certain liabilities settled in cash by us with respect to unresolved pre-separation tax matters. Pursuant to that indemnification, we have made similar indemnifications to Tyco International and Covidien with respect to 31% of certain liabilities settled in cash by the companies relating to unresolved pre-separation tax matters. If any of the companies responsible for all or a portion of such liabilities were to default in its payment of costs or expenses related to any such liability, we would be responsible for a portion of the defaulting party or parties' obligation. These arrangements have been valued upon our separation from Tyco International in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 460, Guarantees, and, accordingly, liabilities amounting to $339 million were recorded on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at March 25, 2011 and September 24, 2010. See Notes 9 and 10 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

        We generally record estimated product warranty costs at the time of sale. See Note 9 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information regarding estimated product warranty.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

        The preparation of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to use judgment in making estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses.

        Our accounting policies for revenue recognition, inventories, goodwill and other intangible assets, income taxes, pension and postretirement benefits, and share-based compensation are based on, among other things, judgments and assumptions made by management. During the six months ended March 25, 2011, there were no significant changes to these policies or to the underlying accounting assumptions and estimates used in these policies from those disclosed in the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 24, 2010.

        During the first six months of fiscal 2011, certain judgments and assumptions were made in connection with the acquisition of ADC. Our acquisition policy and related estimates are as follows:

Acquisitions

        We account for acquired businesses using the acquisition method of accounting. The acquisition method of accounting for acquired businesses requires, among other things, that most assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized at their fair values as of the acquisition date. We allocate the purchase price of acquired companies to the tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair values. The excess of the purchase price over these fair values is recorded as goodwill. We may engage independent third-party appraisal firms to assist us in determining the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Such valuations require management to make significant estimates and assumptions, especially with respect to intangible assets.

        Critical estimates in valuing certain intangible assets include but are not limited to: future expected cash flows from customer and distributor relationships, acquired developed technologies, and patents; expected costs to develop in-process research and development into commercially viable products and estimated cash flows from projects when completed; brand awareness and market position, as well as assumptions about the period of time the brand will continue to be used in our product portfolio; and discount rates. Management's estimates of fair value are based upon assumptions believed to be reasonable, but which are inherently uncertain and unpredictable and, as a result, actual results may differ from estimates.

Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

        In June 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued updates to guidance in ASC 810, Consolidation, that address accounting for variable interest entities. We adopted these updates to ASC 810 in the first quarter of fiscal 2011. Adoption did not have a material impact on our results of operations, financial position, or cash flows.

        In December 2010, the FASB issued an update to guidance in ASC 805, Business Combinations, that clarifies the disclosure requirements for pro forma presentation of revenue and earnings related to a business combination. We elected to early adopt this guidance during the first quarter of fiscal 2011. See Note 4 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the required pro forma presentation related to the acquisition of ADC.

Forward-Looking Information

        Certain statements in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q are "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the U.S. Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.

•

The impact of fluctuations in the market price of our shares; and

•

        There may be other risks and uncertainties that we are unable to predict at this time or that we currently do not expect to have a material adverse effect on our business.

ITEM 3.    QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

        There have been no significant changes in our exposures to market risk during the first six months of fiscal 2011. For further discussion of our exposures to market risk, refer to "Part II. Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 24, 2010.

ITEM 4.    CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

        Our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")), as of March 25, 2011. Based on that evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of March 25, 2011.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

        During the quarter ended March 25, 2011, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

ADC Acquisition

        We acquired ADC on December 8, 2010. We have not yet completed our assessment of the internal controls within ADC; however, we are not aware of any material changes in these controls during the period from December 9, 2010 to March 25, 2011.

        We currently intend to disclose any material changes in internal control over financial reporting resulting from this acquisition and to include the internal controls of ADC in our annual assessment of the effectiveness of the internal control over financial reporting.

71

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1.    LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

        There have been no material developments in our legal proceedings since we filed our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 24, 2010. For a description of our previously reported legal proceedings, refer to "Part I. Item 3. Legal Proceedings" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 24, 2010.

ITEM 1A.    RISK FACTORS

        There have been no material changes in our risk factors from those disclosed in "Part I. Item 1A. Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 24, 2010 except as otherwise described below. The risk factors disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, in addition to other information set forth below and in this report, could materially affect our business operations, financial condition, or liquidity. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently believe are immaterial also may impair our business operations, financial condition, and liquidity.

Our sales and operations will be negatively impacted as a result of the recent earthquake and subsequent tsunami and aftershocks in Japan.

        We are currently monitoring the situation in Japan and the implications of the recent earthquake and subsequent tsunami and aftershocks. Our facilities in Japan were not materially damaged; however, there have been disruptions in our customers' operations in Japan as well as in the supply chain that supports their operations. As a result, we expect that there will be a negative impact on our sales and operations although we cannot predict with certainty the effect of that impact. In addition, if current conditions in Japan were to worsen or were not to substantially improve, our business, financial condition, and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.
