    5 years. LTS releases were traditionally supported for three years on the desktop and five years on the server. However with the release of Ubuntu 12.04 LTS, desktop support for LTS releases was extended to five years. See this – Peachy Aug 01 '12 at 01:02

Canonical will provide security updates for 12.04 LTS through April 2017 on the desktop and server. That's five years total from release.
