        The Company, pursuant to its Global Stock Incentive Plan (the "Plan"), hereby grants the following stock award to Participant, which award shall have the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement:

        1.    Award    

The Company, effective as of the date of this Agreement, hereby grants to Participant a restricted stock award of 150,000 shares (the "Shares") of common stock, par value $.20 per share, of the Company (the "Common Stock"), subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein.

        2.    Vesting    

Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Shares shall vest in Participant as follows: one-third (¹/3) of the Shares shall vest on each of November 1, 2003, 2004 and 2005, if, and only if, Participant remains continuously employed by the Company from the date hereof until each respective vesting date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the vesting and exercisability of Participant's stock option granted on October 31, 2002, under the Company's Global Stock Incentive Plan is accelerated pursuant to a change in control of the Company under the conditions specified in Exhibit A to such stock option agreement, the vesting of the Shares shall similarly be accelerated. In addition, in the event the conditions set forth in that certain letter dated January 7, 2003 from the Company to Participant are satisfied, the Shares shall become fully vested.

        3.    Restriction on Transfer    

Until the Shares vest pursuant to Section 2 hereof, none of the Shares may be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise disposed of or encumbered, and no attempt to transfer the Shares, whether voluntary or involuntary, by operation of law or otherwise, shall vest the transferee with any interest or right in or with respect to the Shares.

        4.    Forfeiture    

If Participant ceases to be an employee of the Company or any majority-owned affiliate of the Company for any reason prior to the vesting of the Shares pursuant to Section 2 hereof, Participant's rights to the unvested portion of the Shares shall be immediately and irrevocably forfeited.

        5.    Issuance and Custody of Certificate    

(a)

The Company shall cause to be issued one or more stock certificates, registered in the name of Participant, evidencing the Shares. Each such certificate shall bear the following legend:

"The shares of common stock represented by this certificate are subject to forfeiture, and the transferability of this certificate and the shares of stock represented hereby are subject to the restrictions, terms and conditions (including restrictions against transfer) contained in the ADC Telecommunications, Inc. Global Stock Incentive Plan and a Restricted Stock Award Agreement entered into between ADC Telecommunications, Inc. and the registered owner of such shares. Copies of the Plan and the Agreement are on file in the office of the Secretary of ADC Telecommunications, Inc., 13625 Technology Drive, Eden Prairie, Minnesota."

(b)

Participant shall execute stock powers relating to the Shares and deliver the same to the Company. Company shall use such stock powers only for the purpose of canceling any unvested Shares that are forfeited.

Each certificate issued pursuant to Section 5(a) hereof, together with the stock powers relating to the Shares, shall be deposited by the Company with the Secretary of the Company or a custodian designated by the Secretary. The Secretary or such custodian shall issue a receipt to Participant evidencing the certificate or certificates held which are registered in the name of Participant.



(d)
