Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

Brady Matched 401(k) Plan
Milwaukee, Wisconsin
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits of Brady Matched
401(k) Plan as of December 31, 2009 and 2008, and the related statements of changes in net assets
available for benefits for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility
of the Plans management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements
based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight
Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The
Plan is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over
financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting
as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for
the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Plans internal control over
financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on
a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An
audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that
our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material
respects, the net assets available for benefits of Brady Matched 401(k) Plan as of December 31,
2009 and 2008, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the years then ended in
conformity with United States generally accepted accounting principles.
Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements
taken as a whole. The accompanying supplemental schedule is presented for purposes of additional
analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements but is supplementary
information required by the Department of Labors Rules and Regulations for Reporting and
Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. This supplemental schedule is
the responsibility of the Plans management. The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the
auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion,
is presented fairly, in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken
as a whole.

BRADY MATCHED 401(k) PLAN
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS OF AND FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2009 AND 2008
NOTE 1 DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN
The following description of the Brady Matched 401(k) Plan (the Plan) is provided for general
information purposes only. Participants should refer to the Plan document for more complete
information.
General
The Plan is a defined contribution plan, which provides retirement benefits to substantially all
full-time employees of Brady Corporation (the Company). The Plan does not provide benefits for
employees covered by a collective bargaining agreement, leased employees, co-op students, on-call
employees or interns. An employee may become a participant in the Plan on the employees initial
date of employment. The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974, as amended (ERISA).
Contributions
Each year, participants may contribute up to 50% of their annual base compensation subject to the
Internal Revenue Code (IRC) limitations. These voluntary contributions can be withdrawn in whole or
part in the event of qualifying emergencies (as defined by the Plan), subject to certain
restrictions. The Company is required to contribute a 100% matching contribution of the first 3%
and 50% of the next 2% that a participant contributes, subject to compensation limits of $245,000
for calendar year 2009, adjusted for inflation. Participants self-direct all participant and
Company contributions.
Participant Accounts
Individual accounts are maintained for each Plan participant. Each participants account is
credited with the participants contribution, the Companys matching contribution (net of
participant forfeitures) and Plan earnings, and charged with withdrawals and an allocation of Plan
losses and administrative expenses. The benefit to which a participant is entitled is the benefit
that can be provided from the participants vested account.
For any newly eligible participant, the Plan will automatically withhold 3% of the employees pay,
on a pre-tax basis unless otherwise directed by the employee. The withheld funds will be deposited into an account under the employees name
in the Plan, unless a waiver form was completed by the employee prior to receiving compensation for
the first time subsequent to becoming eligible to participate.

BRADY MATCHED 401(k) PLAN
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS OF AND FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2009 AND 2008
NOTE 1 DESCRIPTION OF THE PLAN (continued)
Investments
Investment options include various equity funds, a common collective trust fund, a bond fund, two
money market funds, and Brady Corporation Class A Non-Voting Common Stock.
Vesting
The Plan provides for full vesting of participants contributions from the date they are made.
Company contributions will become vested after a two-year period of continuous service for all
contributions made after January 1, 2008. The participants share of the Company contribution
becomes fully vested, in any event, upon normal retirement at age 65, termination due to permanent
or total disability or death.
Participants may withdraw their vested interests upon retirement, approved hardship withdrawal,
death, disability, or other termination of employment. Withdrawals are made at the participants
option in the form of a lump sum, installments, or in-kind in shares of Brady Corporation Class A
Non-Voting Common Stock.
Participant Loans
Participants may borrow from their plan accounts a minimum of $1,000 and up to 50% of their account
balance with a maximum of $50,000. The loans are secured by the balance in the participants
account and bear interest at the prime rate. As of December 31, 2009, the interest rates on
outstanding loans range from 3.25% to 10.25%.
Payment of Benefits
On termination of service due to death, disability, or retirement, a participant may elect to
receive either a lump-sum amount equal to the value of the participants vested interest in his or
her account, or installments over a specified period. For termination of service for other reasons,
a participant may receive the value of the vested interest in his or her account as a lump-sum
distribution.
Forfeited Accounts
At December 31, 2009 and 2008, forfeited non-vested accounts totaled $282,737 and $103,340,
respectively. These amounts were used to reduce employer contribution receivables as of December
31, 2009 and 2008.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS OF AND FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2009 AND 2008
NOTE 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Accounting
The accompanying financial statements have been prepared under the accrual basis in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP).
Investment contracts held by a defined-contribution plan are required to be reported at fair value.
However, contract value is the relevant measurement attribute for that portion of the net assets
available for benefits for a defined contribution plan attributable for fully benefit-responsive
investment contracts because contract value is the amount participants would receive if they were
to initiate permitted transactions under the terms of the plans. The Statement of Net Assets
Available for Benefits presents the fair value of the investment contracts as well as the
adjustment of the fully benefit-responsive investment contracts from fair value to contract value.
The Statement of Changes in Net Assets Available for Benefits is prepared on a contract value
basis.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted
in the United States of America requires Plan management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of net assets available for benefits and changes therein. Actual
results could differ from those estimates.
Risks and Uncertainties
The Plan utilizes various investment instruments, including mutual funds, common stock and a common
collective trust fund. Investment securities, in general, are exposed to various risks, such as
interest rate, credit, and overall market volatility. Due to the level of risk associated with
certain investment securities, it is reasonably possible that changes in the values of investment
securities will occur in the near term and that such changes could materially affect the amounts
reported in the financial statements.

BRADY MATCHED 401(k) PLAN
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS OF AND FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2009 AND 2008
NOTE 2 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Investment Valuation and Income Recognition
Investments are reported at fair value. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an
asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the
measurement date. Refer to Note 4 below.
Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis. Interest income is recorded
on the accrual basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Net appreciation includes
the Plans gains and losses on investments bought and sold as well as held during the year.
Management fees and operating expenses charged to the Plan for investments in the mutual funds are
deducted from income earned on a daily basis and are not separately reflected. Consequently,
management fees and operating expenses are reflected as a reduction of investment return for such
investments.
Administrative Expenses
Administrative fees are paid by the Plan. The Company pays the other accounting, investment
management, legal and miscellaneous fees of the Plan.
Payment of Benefits
Benefit payments to participants are recorded upon distribution. There were no amounts allocated to
accounts of persons who have elected to withdraw from the Plan, but have not yet been paid as of
December 31, 2009 and 2008.
Excess Contributions Payable
The Plan is required to return contributions received during the Plan year in excess of the IRC
limits to the contributing participants. There were excess contributions of $6,866 and $5,252 for
the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

BRADY MATCHED 401(k) PLAN
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
AS OF AND FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2009 AND 2008
NOTE 4 FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT
GAAP establishes a hierarchal disclosure framework which prioritizes and ranks the level of
observable inputs used in measuring fair value.
Additionally, GAAP defines fair value as the price that would be received upon the sale of an asset
or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the
measurement date (exit price). The Plan primarily applies the market approach for recurring fair
value measurements and attempts to utilize the best available information. Accordingly, the Plan
also utilizes valuation techniques that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use
of unobservable inputs. The Plan is able to classify fair value balances based on the observability
of those inputs. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active
markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable
inputs (Level 3).
The Plans net assets measured at fair market value are classified in one of the following
categories:
|
|
|
Level 1 |
|
Assets for which fair value is based on quoted market prices in
active markets for identical instruments as of the reporting date. |
|
|
|
Level 2 |
|
Assets for which fair value is based on valuation models for which
pricing inputs were either directly or indirectly observable |
|
|
|
Level 3 |
|
Assets for which fair value is based on valuation models with
significant unobservable pricing inputs and which result in the
use of management estimates. |
The assets or liabilitys fair value measurement level within the fair value hierarchy is based on
the lowest level of any inputs that is significant to the fair value measurement. Valuation
techniques used need to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable
inputs.
The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for assets measured at fair
value. There have been no changes in the methodologies used at December 31, 2009.
Shares of equity funds and bond funds are valued at quoted market prices, which represent the net
asset value of shares held by the Plan at year end. Common stock is valued at quoted market
prices. Such securities are classified within Level 1 of the valuation hierarchy.
The common collective trust fund is valued at fair market value of the underlying investments and
then adjusted by the issuer to contract value. The collective trust funds do not have finite
lives, unfunded commitments relating to these types of investments, or significant restrictions on
redemptions. The money market funds are valued at a stable $1.00 net asset value. Such securities
are classified within Level 2 of the valuation hierarchy.
Participant loans are valued at the amortized cost, which represents fair value. Such securities
are classified within Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy.

AS OF AND FOR THE YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2009 AND 2008
NOTE 4 FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENT (continued)
The methods described above may produce a fair value calculation that may not be indicative of net
realizable value or reflective of future fair values. Furthermore, while the Plan believes its
valuation methods are appropriate and consistent with other market participants, the use of
different methodologies or assumptions to determine the fair value of certain financial instruments
could result in different fair value measurement at the reporting date.
The following table sets forth by level, within the fair value hierarchy, the Plans assets at fair
value as December 31, 2009.

NOTE 5 PLAN TERMINATION
Although it has not expressed any intention to do so, the Company has the right under the Plan
provisions to discontinue its contributions at any time and to terminate the Plan subject to the
provisions set forth in ERISA. In the event that the Plan is terminated, participants would become
100 percent vested in unvested employer matching contributions in their accounts.
NOTE 6 FEDERAL INCOME TAX STATUS
The Plan uses a prototype plan document sponsored by PNC Bank (PNC or the Trustee). PNC received an
opinion letter from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), dated November 19, 2001, which states that
the prototype document satisfies the applicable provisions of the IRC. The Plan itself has not
received a determination letter from the IRS. However, the Plans management believes that the Plan
is currently designed and being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the IRC.
Therefore, no provision for income tax has been included in the Plans financial statements.
NOTE 7 EXEMPT PARTY-IN-INTEREST TRANSACTIONS
The Plan invests in Company common stock. In addition, certain plan investments represent shares of
mutual funds and common collective trust funds managed by the Trustee. Fees paid by the Plan for
investment management services were included as a reduction of the return earned on each fund.
These transactions are considered party-in-interest transactions. These transactions are not,
however, considered prohibited transactions under ERISA regulations.
At December 31, 2009 and 2008, the Plan held 129,998 and 124,944 shares, respectively of common
stock of Brady Corporation, with a cost basis of $2,824,087 and $3,127,795, respectively. During
the years ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, the Plan recorded dividend income from the common stock
of Brady Corporation of $93,305 and $69,176, respectively.
