On February 17, 2009, the compensation committee (the “Committee”) of CommScope, Inc. (the “Company”) amended the CommScope, Inc. Annual Incentive Plan (the “AIP”) to provide that the Committee may permit certain participants to elect to receive all or a portion of their AIP award in stock on such terms and conditions as established by the Committee.  The value of the stock issued would be equal to the AIP award approved in respect of the relevant fiscal year, or portion thereof, with respect to which an election has been made, with the number of shares issued determined based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the date such election is made.
 
    Also on February 17, 2009, the Committee approved the payment of AIP awards in respect of fiscal year 2008 to the Company’s named executive officers.  In addition, the Committee determined that the named executive officers are among the participants who may elect to receive all or a portion of their AIP awards in respect of fiscal year 2008 in stock in lieu of cash.  Frank Drendel and Jearld Leonhardt have each elected to receive all of their AIP award in respect of fiscal year 2008 in stock.  As a result, Messrs.
