Business Wire, Nov 10, 2005

CHICAGO -- The law firm of Meites, Mulder, Burger & Mollica today announced that it is broadening its investigation in a class action that is pending against Tyco International and Tyco directors on behalf of former shareholders of Mallinckrodt, Inc. (MLKT), which was acquired by Tyco in a merger effective October 17, 2000 in which Mallinckrodt shareholders exchanged shares of Mallinckrodt common stock for shares of Tyco common stock.

The firm seeks to contact former Mallinckrodt shareholders as part of an investigation into whether registration statements misrepresented or omitted material facts regarding Tyco's business condition.

A class action has been filed against Tyco in the Circuit Court of Cook County in Illinois, alleging that this undisclosed information was material to Mallinckrodt shareholders considering how to vote on the Merger.

The firm seeks information from former Mallinckrodt shareholders and invites them to contact attorneys Paul Mollica of Meites, Mulder, Burger & Mollica (www.mmbmlaw.com) at 312-263-0272 or co-counsel Robert Allison of Robert Allison & Associates at 312-427-7600 to discuss whether their interests may be affected by this case.
