To encourage your continued employment with ADC
Telecommunications, Inc. (the “Company”) or its Affiliates, you have been
granted this restricted stock unit award (the “Award”) pursuant to the
Company’s Global Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”).  The Award represents the right to receive shares of Common Stock
of the Company subject to the fulfillment of the vesting conditions set forth in
this agreement and the additional terms and conditions set for the in Exhibit A
to this agreement (collectively, this “Agreement”).

 

The terms of the Award are as set forth in this
Agreement and in the Plan.  The Plan is
incorporated into this Agreement by reference, which means that this Agreement
is limited by and subject to the express terms and provisions of the Plan.  In the event of a conflict between the terms
of this Agreement and the terms of the Plan, the terms of the Plan shall
control.  Capitalized terms that are not
defined in this Agreement have the meanings given to them in the Plan.  The terms of the Award are as

4.                                      Conversion
of Restricted Stock Units and Issuance of Shares.  Subject to your continued
employment and the other terms of the Award, upon each vesting of the Award
(each a “Vest Date”), you shall receive, in accordance with the terms and
provisions of the Plan and this Agreement, one share of Common Stock for each
restricted stock unit that vests on such Vest Date (the “Shares”).  The Company will transfer such Shares to you
as soon as administratively feasible following your satisfaction of any
required tax withholding obligations. 
No fractional shares shall be issued under this Agreement.  No Shares shall be issued upon vesting of
the Award unless such issuance complies with all relevant provisions of law and
the requirements of any stock exchange upon which the Shares are then
listed.  You understand that your
participation in the Plan is conditioned on the Company obtaining all necessary
orders, decisions, rulings and approvals from the relevant governmental
regulatory authorities.  The Award does
not entitle you to any shareholder rights (e.g., no voting or dividend
rights).  The Company reserves the right
to determine the manner in which the Shares are delivered to you, including but
not limited to delivery by direct registration with the Company’s transfer
agent or delivery to a broker designated by the Company.

 

5.                                      Termination
of Employment.  

 

(a)                                  For
all purposes of this Agreement, the term “Employment Termination Date” shall
mean the earlier of:

 

(i)                                                 the
date, as determined by the Company, that you are no longer actively employed by
the Company or an Affiliate of the Company, and in the case of an involuntarily
termination, such date shall not be extended by any notice period mandated
under local law (e.g., active employment would not include a period of “garden
leave” or similar period pursuant to local law); or

 

(ii)                                              the date,
as determined by the Company, that your employer is no longer an Affiliate of
the Company.

 

(b)                                 If
your Employment Termination Date occurs before the full vesting of this Award,
the entire unvested portion of the Award as of your Employment Termination Date
shall be forfeited and immediately cancelled.

 

(c)                                  The
Committee shall have the exclusive discretion to determine the Employment
Termination Date.

 

6.                                      Right to Shares.  You
shall not have any right in, to or with respect to any of the Shares (including
any voting rights or rights with respect to cash dividends paid by the Company
on shares of its Common Stock) issuable under the Award until the Award is
settled by the issuance of such Shares to you at vesting.

7.                                      Tax
Withholding.

 

(a)                                  Regardless of any
action the Company or your employer (the “Employer”) takes with respect to any
or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax or other tax-related
withholding (“Tax-Related Items”), you acknowledge that the ultimate liability
for all Tax-Related Items legally due by you is and remains your responsibility
and that Company and/or your Employer: 
(1) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of
any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Award, including the
grant, vesting or issuance of Shares, the subsequent sale of Shares acquired
pursuant to such vesting and the receipt of any dividends or dividend
equivalents (if any); and (2) do not commit to structure the terms of the Award
or any aspect of the Award to reduce or eliminate your liability for
Tax-Related Items.

 

As a condition and term of this Award, no election
under Section 83(b) of the United States Internal Revenue Code may be made
by you with respect to this Award.

 

(b)                                 Prior to any taxable
event arising as a result of the Award you must make such arrangements as the
Company or its Affiliates may permit or require for the satisfaction of tax
withholding obligations (including U.S. federal, state and local taxes and any
non-U.S. taxes or social contributions) that the Company determines are or may
be required in connection with such event (the “Tax Withholding
Obligation”).  If permitted by the
Company, you may satisfy your Tax Withholding Obligation in one of the
following three ways:

 

(i)            Direct Payment:  you may elect to satisfy your Tax Withholding Obligation by delivering to the Company,
no later than three (3) U.S. business days after any Vest Date, a wire transfer
or certified or cashier’s check payable to the Company in U.S. dollars equal to
the amount of the Tax Withholding Obligation, as determined by the
Company.  This is referred to as a “Cash
Payment Election”; 

 

(ii)           Share Withholding:  you may elect to have the Company retain
from the Shares issuable on each Vest Date that number of Shares having a Fair
Market Value on the Vest Date that is sufficient to satisfy your Tax
Withholding Obligation.  This is
referred to as a “Share Withhold Election”; or

 

(iii)          Sale of a Portion of
Shares:  you may elect to have the
broker designated by the Company sell on your behalf a whole number of Shares
from those Shares issuable to you on each Vest Date to generate cash proceeds sufficient to
satisfy the
Tax Withholding Obligation.  This is referred to as a “Sell to Cover
Election.”

 

The Company reserves the right to specify from
time-to-time which of the foregoing three elections will be available and to
specify the time and manner for making an election.  If no election is made by you or if you make a Cash Payment
Election and fail to deliver the required funds to the Company on a timely
basis, then the Company may, in its sole discretion, require either a Share
Withhold Election or a Sell to Cover Election. 
Your acceptance of this Award constitutes your consent and authorization
for the Company to take such action as may be necessary to effectuate either
such election.

 

3

 

(c)                                  If you make a Sell to Cover Election (or if
the Company makes this election in its discretion) you will be responsible for
all broker’s fees and other costs of sale. 
In addition, the broker will be instructed to sell a sufficient number
of whole Shares to generate cash proceeds equal to the Tax Withholding Obligation.  Neither the Company nor the broker used by
the Company will guarantee any particular sale price for the sale of such
Shares.  Accordingly, you may be
required to sell more Shares than would be required if a Share Withhold
Election were made (if available). 
Alternatively, such sale may result in additional tax obligations for
you if the sale price is greater than the Fair Market Value of the Shares on
the Vest Date. 

 

(d)                                 The Company may refuse to issue any Shares to you until you
satisfy any Tax Withholding Obligation.

 

(e)                                  If your Tax
Withholding Obligation is not satisfied by the means described above, you
authorize your Employer to withhold all such obligations from your wages or
other cash compensation paid to you by your Employer.

 

8.                                      Transfer of Award.  Your
rights under the Award may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or
disposed of in any way, except by will or by the laws of descent and
distribution, without the prior written consent of the Company.

 

9.                                      Acceleration
of Vest Dates.  In the event of a “Change in Control” of the
Company prior to any Vest Date, the entire unvested portion of this Award shall
become immediately vested on the effective date of such Change in Control, and
you will be required to satisfy any applicable Tax Withholding
Obligations.  For purposes of
this Agreement, the following terms shall have the meanings set forth below:

 

(a)                                  “Change in Control”
shall mean:

 

(i)                                     a change in
control of the Company of a nature that would be required to be reported in
response to Item 6(e) of Schedule 14A of Regulation 14A promulgated under
the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”),
whether or not the Company is then subject to such reporting requirement;

 

(ii)                                  the public
announcement (which, for purposes of this definition, shall include, without
limitation, a report filed pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act)
by the Company or any “person” (as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and
14(d) of the Exchange Act) that such person has become the “beneficial owner”
(as defined in Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act), directly or
indirectly, of securities of the Company representing 20% or more of the
combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding securities, determined in
accordance with Rule 13d-3, excluding, however, any securities acquired
directly from the Company (other than an acquisition by virtue of the exercise
of a conversion privilege unless the security being so converted was itself
acquired directly from the Company); however, that for purposes of this clause
the term “person” shall not include the Company, any subsidiary of the Company
or any employee benefit plan of the Company or of any subsidiary of the Company
or any entity holding shares of Common Stock organized, appointed or
established for, or pursuant to the terms of, any such plan;

 

4

 

(iii)          the Continuing Directors cease to constitute
a majority of the Company’s Board of Directors;

 

(iv)                              consummation of a
reorganization, merger or consolidation of, or a sale or other disposition of
all or substantially all of the assets of, the Company (a “Business
Combination”), in each case, unless, following such Business Combination, (A)
all or substantially all of the persons who were the beneficial owners of the
Company’s outstanding voting securities immediately prior to such Business
Combination beneficially own voting securities of the corporation resulting
from such Business Combination having more than 50% of the combined voting
power of the outstanding voting securities of such resulting Corporation and
(B) at least a majority of the members of the Board of Directors of the
corporation resulting from such Business Combination were Continuing Directors
at the time of the action of the Board of Directors of the Company approving
such Business Combination;

 

(v)                                 approval by the
shareholders of the Company of a complete liquidation or dissolution of the
Company; or

 

(vi)                              the majority of the
Continuing Directors determine in their sole and absolute discretion that there
has been a change in control of the Company.

 

(b)                                 “Continuing
Director” shall mean any person who is a member of the Board of Directors of
the Company, while such person is a member of the Board of Directors, who is
not an Acquiring Person (as defined below) or an Affiliate or Associate (as
defined below) of an Acquiring Person, or a representative of an Acquiring
Person or of any such Affiliate or Associate, and who (x) was a member of the
Board of Directors on the date of this Agreement as first written above or
(y) subsequently becomes a member of the Board of Directors, if such
person’s initial nomination for election or initial election to the Board of
Directors is recommended or approved by a majority of the Continuing
Directors.  For purposes of this
subparagraph (b), “Acquiring Person” shall mean any “person” (as such term is
used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange Act) who or which, together
with all Affiliates and Associates of such person, is the “beneficial owner”
(as defined in Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act), directly or
indirectly, of securities of the Company representing 20% or more of the
combined voting power of the Company’s then outstanding securities, but shall
not include the Company, any subsidiary of the Company or any employee benefit
plan of the Company or of any subsidiary of the Company or any entity holding
shares of Common Stock organized, appointed or established for, or pursuant to
the terms of, any such plan; and “Affiliate” and “Associate” shall have the
respective meanings ascribed to such terms in Rule 12b-2 promulgated under the
Exchange Act.

 

10.                               Further
Acts.  You agree to execute and deliver any additional documents and to perform

the event of any stock dividend, stock split or consolidation or any like
capital adjustment of any of the outstanding securities of the Company, all
new, substituted or additional securities or other property to which you become
entitled by reason of the Award shall be subject to forfeiture to the Company
with the same force and effect as is the Award immediately prior to such event.

 

5

 

12.                               Severability.  In the event that any provision of this
Agreement is deemed to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions
shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect without being impaired or
invalidated in any way.

 

13.                               Governing

limit in any respect the right of the Company or any of its Affiliates to
terminate your employment or other relationship with the Company or any of its
Affiliates, as the case may be, at any time,(i) no claim or entitlement to
compensation or damages arises from termination of the Award which results from
the termination of your employment by the Company or your Employer (for any

the Award or Shares issued pursuant to the Award and you irrevocably release
the Company and its Affiliates from any such claim that may arise, (j) you
consent to the delivery by electronic means of any notices, documents or
election forms related to the Award, the Plan or future grants under the Plan,

Consent.  You hereby consent to the collection, use
and transfer, in electronic or other form, of your personal data as described

Exhibit A to

 

ADC Telecommunications, Inc.

 

Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement

 

This Exhibit A to the Agreement includes
additional terms and conditions of the grant of the Awards that will apply to
residents of the countries listed below. 
Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the same
meanings assigned to them in the Plan and the Agreement.

 

Argentina

 

The benefits received under the Plan, if any,
do not accrue on a monthly basis and will not be granted on a regular or
monthly basis.  In addition, your Award
is granted by Company on behalf of your local employer.

 

The Award granted pursuant to the Plan and
the Shares which may be issued upon vesting of the Award are offered in a
private transaction and are not subject to the supervision of any Argentine
governmental authority.  This is not an
offer to the public.

 

Please note that exchange controls in
Argentina are currently in a state of flux. 
Therefore, you should consult with your legal advisor regarding any
approval or reporting obligations that you may have with respect to the
ownership of foreign shares and/or the receipt of cash payments from abroad.

 

Australia

 

Your Award is granted pursuant to the
Australian Addendum which is an addendum to the Plan, and therefore, your Award
is subject to the terms and conditions as stated in the Australian Addendum,
the Plan and the Agreement.

 

Belgium

 

You are required to report any security or
bank account maintained outside of Belgium on your annual tax return.

 

Canada (Quebec only)

 

The parties acknowledge that it is their
express wish that this Agreement, as well as all documents, notices and legal
proceeds entered into, given or instituted pursuant hereto or relating directly
or indirectly hereto, be provided to them in English.

 

Les parties reconnaissent avoir exigé la
rédaction en anglais de cette convention, ainsi que de tous documents exécutés,
avis donnés et procédures judiciaries intentées, directement ou indirectement,
relativement à ou suite à la présente convention.

 

Canada (all provinces)

 

You are permitted to sell Shares acquired
upon vesting of the Award through the designated broker appointed by the
Company provided the resale of Shares takes place outside of Canada through the
facilitates of the stock exchange which the Shares are listed.  Currently, the Company’s Shares are listed
on NASDAQ.

France

 

You may hold Shares issued to you upon
vesting of the Award outside of France provided you declare all foreign
accounts, whether open, current, or closed, in your income tax return.  You must also declare to the customs and
excise authorities any cash or securities you import or export without the use
of a financial institution when the value of the cash or securities is equal to
or exceeds €7,600.

 

Germany

 

Cross-border payments in excess of €12,500
must be reported monthly.  If you use a
German bank to transfer a cross-border payment in excess of €12,500 in connection
with sale of Shares, the bank will make the report.  In addition, you must report any receivables or payables or debts
in foreign currency exceeding an amount of €5,000,000 on a monthly basis.  Finally, you must also report your holding
annually in the unlikely event that you holds Shares representing 10% or more
of the total or voting capital of the Company.

1996 on the Offering of Securities, Investment Services and the Stock Exchange.

 

Ireland

 

This Award is granted pursuant to the Plan
and the Shares which may be issued upon vesting of the Award are offered in a
