COMPENSATION PLAN FOR NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTORS

OF ADC TELECOMMUNICATIONS, INC.

(2007 Restatement)

As Restated on September 30, 2007

1. Purpose

The purpose of this Compensation Plan (the “Plan”) is to enable Directors of ADC
Telecommunications, Inc. (the “Company”) who are not employees of the Company to
elect to receive their fees as members of the Board of Directors in a form most
advantageous to them. The Plan permits such Directors to elect to receive this
compensation in one or more of the following methods:

  (a)   In cash on a current basis;

  (b)   In cash on a deferred basis (a “Deferred Cash Election”); or

  (c)   In Company stock on a deferred basis (a “Deferred Stock Election”).

2. Effective Date

This Plan was originally adopted on March 30, 1982. This restatement
incorporates amendments to comply with final Treasury Regulation § 1.409A-1(h),
-1(i) and -3(i)(5) and shall become effective upon adoption of this restatement.

3. Eligibility

All members of the Board of Directors who are not employees of the Company
(“Participants”) are eligible for the Plan.

4. Compensation Covered by the Plan (“Eligible Fees”)

The compensation covered by the Plan which is eligible to be deferred or
exchanged. Eligible Fees include:

  (a)   For a Deferred Cash Election: the annual cash retainer, any
non-Executive Board or Committee Chair retainer, and all meeting attendance
fees;

  (b)   For a Deferred Stock Election: The annual cash retainer and any Board
Committee Chair retainer.

No other compensation or fees otherwise payable to a Director shall be eligible
for an election under this Plan.

5. Election to Defer

Elections to defer Eligible Fees must be made with respect to each Plan Year.
Each Participant may, in lieu of receiving current covered compensation for any
Plan Year, elect to defer Eligible Fees as follows using the Deferral Election
Form attached hereto as Exhibit A:

  (a)   All Eligible Fees;

  (b)   Any designated percentage of his/her Eligible Fees; or

  (c)   Any designated dollar amount of his/her Eligible Fees.

To be effective for any Plan Year, a Deferral Election Form must be submitted to
the Company prior to the first day of the Plan Year. That portion of Eligible
Fees for which a valid Deferral Election Form has not been timely received by
the Company will be paid in cash in accordance with the Company’s customary
practice of paying such Eligible Fees. Once a Plan Year has commenced, all
Deferral Elections under this Plan for such Plan Year shall be irrevocable.

6. Plan Year

The Plan shall operate on a calendar year basis.

7. Deferred Cash Election

For each Director who makes a Deferred Cash Election, the Company will establish
an account (a “Deferral Account”) and will credit to the Deferral Account the
amount or percent of the Eligible Fees (earned by him/her as of the date such
fees would normally be payable by the Company) that s/he has elected to defer.
In addition, the Company shall accrue, as of the last day of each month,
interest on the balance in such Deferral Account at the prime commercial rate
(the “Prime Rate”) of Wells Fargo Bank Minnesota, N.A., in effect for such
month.

  (a)   Funding of the Deferral Account

The amounts credited to each Participant’s Deferral Account shall not be held by
the Company in a trust, escrow or similar fiduciary capacity, and neither the
Participant, nor any legal representative, shall have any right against the
Company with respect to any portion of the Deferral Account except as a general
unsecured creditor of the Company.

  (b)   Timing of Distributions

At the time a Participant’s initial Deferred Cash Election is made, each
Participant shall specify the time and manner in which the balance in his/her
Deferral Account shall be distributed. The time and manner for distributions
specified on a Participant’s initial election form shall remain in effect for
all successive elections until amended in accordance with Section 7(d).
Installment payments shall be deemed to be a single payment for purposes of any
election to further defer payments. If a Participant does not specify an
election for the timing and manner of a distribution, the balance of the
Participant’s Deferral Account shall be distributed in a lump sum in accordance
with option (i) below. The Participant shall be entitled to receive, or to
commence receiving, his/her deferred cash compensation as soon as practicable
after the following:

  (i)   His/her Separation from Service or death;

  (ii)   The January 1 following his/her Separation from Service or death; or

  (iii)   On a date set by him/her.

A “Separation from Service” means a severance of a Director’s service
relationship with the Company and all affiliates for any reason other than the
Director’s death. Whether a Separation from Service has occurred is determined
under section 409A of the Code and Treasury Regulation 1.409A-1(h) (i.e.,
whether the expiration of the Director’s term or his or her resignation or
removal from the Board constitutes a good-faith and complete termination of the
Director’s relationship with the Company).

  (c)   Manner of Distribution

Each Participant shall be entitled to receive the balance in his/her Deferral
Account in any one of the following manners:

  (i)   In a lump sum;

  (ii)   In approximately equal quarterly installments over a period of years
stipulated by him/her; or

  (iii)   In approximately equal quarterly installments of a value stipulated by
him/her until the Deferral Account is exhausted.

  (d)   Amendments to Timing or Form of Distribution

A Participant may rescind the initial designation of the timing and manner of
distribution made pursuant to Section 7(b) by making a new designation on the
Distribution Amendment Form attached hereto as Exhibit B. A Distribution
Amendment Form is not effective for 12 months after it is filed and a new
distribution election must delay payment at least 5 years from the date payment
would otherwise have been made. If the initial distribution election was made
for a specified time (e.g., attainment of age 65), the new election must be made
at least 12 months before the date of the first scheduled payment. (By way of
example, a Participant who originally elected to receive installment payments
beginning on the date the Participant attains age 65, and later decides he/she
wants to receive a lump sum must submit a Distribution Amendment Form no later
than his/her 64th birthday in order to request the change at least 12 months
before the date selected for distribution. The lump sum payment must be made at
least 5 years after the date originally selected for distribution.) Once
distributions have commenced pursuant to a valid distribution election, no
further amendments to the manner of such distribution may be made.

8. Deferred Stock Election

  (a)   Exchange Election

Eligible Participants may elect to exchange part or all of their Eligible Fees
for a Plan Year for the Company’s commitment to issue to such Participants a
fixed number of shares of common stock of the Company at a future date. No
actual shares of common stock shall be issued until the distribution date
described in Section 8(c) hereof. The Company’s commitment to issue shares shall
be referred to as “Phantom Shares.” The Phantom Shares shall not be considered
issued and outstanding shares for purposes of shareholder voting rights, but
shall be treated the same as outstanding shares for purposes of dividends and
other distributions.

The number of shares which the Company shall be obligated to issue as a result
of a Deferred Stock Election will equal the dollar amount of the Eligible Fee
elected to be deferred divided by the closing price of ADC common stock on the
first business day of the Plan Year for which the election is effective, rounded
to the nearest whole number of shares. An example of this calculation is
attached hereto as Exhibit B.

  (b)   Terms and Forfeiture of Phantom Shares

Except in the event of the Participant’s death, the Phantom Shares shall be
forfeited if the Participant ceases to serve as a Director at any time during
the Plan Year for which such Phantom Shares were issued. All Phantom Shares
issued under and subject to the terms of this Plan will be issued under the
Company’s Global Stock Incentive Plan and/or its successor plans and shall be
deemed to be “restricted stock units” for purposes of such Plan.

  (c)   Distribution of Phantom Shares

Provided that the Phantom Shares have not been forfeited, the actual shares of
the Company’s common stock represented by the Phantom Shares will be distributed
as soon as administratively feasible following the Participant’s Separation from
Service with the Company.

9. General Provisions

  (a)   Distribution in Event of Death

In the event of death, distribution of the Deferral Account or actual shares of
common stock represented by Phantom Shares will be made to the Beneficiary named
by the Participant or to that person who would have a right to receive such
distribution by will or by the applicable laws of descent and distribution.

  (b)   Distribution in Event of Change in Control

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan, in the event of a Change in
Control, each Participant who separates from service with the Company for any
reason (other than for Cause) during the two (2) year period following such
Change in Control shall receive within ten (10) business days after the date of
separation the following:

  (i)   If a Participant has a balance in the Deferral Account, a lump sum
payment of the entire balance contained in his/her Deferral Account, together
with interest at the Prime Rate, on the average daily balance in such Deferral
Account for the period since the last interest accrual pursuant to Section 7
through the date of such Participant’s Separation from Service; and

  (ii)   If a Deferred Stock Election is in effect, a distribution of the number
of shares represented by the Phantom Shares issued pursuant to such election,
including any Phantom Shares that have not yet vested pursuant to Section 8(b)
hereof.

Notwithstanding paragraph (i) above, with respect to any Participant who
separated from service before the date of a Change in Control, the balance of
the Participant’s Deferral Account shall be paid at the time and in the manner
as elected by the Participant under Section 7 hereof (and shall not be commuted
to a lump sum or otherwise accelerated by the Change in Control). For purposes
of this Section 10(b), a “Change in Control” shall mean a “change in the
ownership,” “change in effective control,” and/or a “change in the ownership of
a substantial portion of assets” of the Employer as defined under Treasury
Regulation

§ 1.409A-3(i)(5), and “Cause” shall mean willful and continued failure by the
employee to perform his duties or gross and willful misconduct including, but
not limited to, wrongful appropriation of funds or the commission of a gross
misdemeanor or felony.

  (c)   Distribution to Specified Employees

Notwithstanding any other provision in this Plan, in the event that a
Participant in this Plan is determined to be a “specified employee” (as that
term is defined under Section 409A of the Code), any distribution to the
Participant on account of the Participant’s Separation from Service shall be
delayed by six months to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the
Code.

  (d)   Administration of the Plan

The Plan shall be administered by the Board of Directors or Compensation
Committee of the Board of Directors.

  (e)   Amendment or Termination

This Plan may be amended or terminated at any time by the Board of Directors or
the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors.

  (f)   Cautionary Statement

Participants should be aware that their participation in the Plan involves the
following risks, among others:

  (i)   Balances in the Deferral Account represent unfunded, unsecured general
obligations of the Company. If the Company is unable to pay its debts as they
become due, Participants may not be able to collect the balances in their
Deferral Accounts.

  (ii)   The value of the Phantom Shares issued pursuant to the Plan will depend
on the value of ADC common stock. An investment in ADC common stock involves
risk. Participants are encouraged to review ADC’s filings with the U.S.
Securities and Exchange Commission for a description of some of the risk factors
associated with an investment in ADC’s common stock.

  (iii)   Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, the Phantom Shares issued
pursuant to the Plan are subject to forfeiture if a Participant does not
maintain service as a Director through the end of the Plan Year of such
issuance.
