Article II

2.1 Effect on Capital Stock. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, at the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of ADC, Merger Sub, Andrew or the holders of any shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Andrew (together with any associated Andrew Rights (as defined in Section 4.2(a)), “Andrew Common Stock”):

(a) Conversion of Andrew Common Stock. Each share of Andrew Common Stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, other than any shares of Andrew Common Stock to be canceled pursuant to Section 2.1(c) shall automatically be converted into the right to receive 0.57 (the “Exchange Ratio”) of a fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock, par value $0.20 per share, of ADC (“ADC Common Stock”) upon surrender of the Certificate (as defined in Section 2.2(b)) which immediately prior to the Effective Time represented such share of Andrew Common Stock in the manner provided in Section 2.2(b) (or, in the case of a lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, Section 2.2(h)). The shares of ADC Common Stock, together with the associated ADC Rights (as defined in Section 3.2(a)), to be issued or paid to holders of Andrew Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement, together with any cash in lieu of fractional shares pursuant to Section 2.2(e), are referred to as the “Merger Consideration”. As a result of the Merger, at the Effective Time, each holder of a Certificate shall cease to have any rights with respect thereto, except the right to receive the Merger Consideration payable in respect of the shares of Andrew Common Stock represented by such Certificate immediately prior to the Effective Time, any cash in lieu of fractional shares payable pursuant to Section 2.1(e) and any dividends or other distributions payable pursuant to Section 2.2(c), all to be issued or paid, without interest, in consideration therefor upon the surrender of such Certificate in accordance with Section 2.2(b) (or, in the case of a lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate, Section 2.2(h)).

(b) Capital Stock of Merger Sub. Each issued and outstanding share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Merger Sub shall be converted into one fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Surviving Corporation.

(c) Cancellation of Treasury Shares. Each share of Andrew Common Stock held as treasury stock by Andrew, if any, shall automatically be extinguished without any conversion, and no consideration shall be delivered in respect thereof.

(d) Andrew Options, Andrew Warrant, Andrew Note and Andrew Restricted Stock Units. At the Effective Time, (i) all issued and outstanding options to purchase Andrew Common Stock under any Andrew Stock Plan (as defined in Section 4.2(a)) (each, an “Andrew Option”) shall be assumed by ADC in accordance with Section 6.10(a), (ii) the warrant, dated January 16, 2006, to purchase 1,000,000 shares of Andrew Common Stock issued to True Position, Inc. (the “Andrew Warrant”) shall be assumed by ADC in accordance with Section 6.10(b), (iii) all issued and outstanding 3 1/4% Convertible Subordinated Notes Due 2013 (the “Andrew Notes”), subject to the indenture, dated August 8, 2003, between Andrew and BNY Midwest Trust Company (the “Andrew Indenture”) shall become convertible into ADC Common Stock in accordance with Section 6.10(c), and (iv) all restricted stock units issued under the Andrew Stock Plans shall be treated as set forth in Section 6.10(d).

(e) Fractional Shares. No fraction of a share of ADC Common Stock will be issued by virtue of the Merger, but in lieu thereof each holder of shares of Andrew Common Stock who would otherwise be entitled to receive a fraction of a share of ADC Common Stock (after aggregating all fractional shares of ADC Common Stock that otherwise would be received by such holder) shall, upon surrender of such holder’s Certificate(s), receive from ADC an amount of cash (rounded to the nearest whole cent), without interest, equal to the product of: (i) such fraction, multiplied by (ii) the average closing price of one share of ADC Common Stock for the ten most recent trading days that ADC Common Stock has traded ending on the trading day one day prior to the Effective Time, as reported on the NASDAQ National Market (“NASDAQ”).

(f) Adjustments to Exchange Ratio. Notwithstanding any provision of this Article II to the contrary (but without in any way limiting the covenants in Section 5.1), the Exchange Ratio shall be adjusted to reflect fully the appropriate effect of any stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend (including any dividend or distribution of securities convertible into ADC Common Stock or Andrew Common Stock), reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification or other like change with respect to ADC Common Stock or Andrew Common Stock having a record date on or after the date hereof and prior to the Effective Time.

2.2 Exchange of Shares and Certificates.

(a) Exchange Agent. At or prior to the Effective Time, ADC shall engage Computershare Investor Services LLC (or such other institution reasonably satisfactory to ADC and Andrew) to act as exchange agent in connection with the Merger (the “Exchange Agent”), pursuant to an agreement reasonably satisfactory to ADC and Andrew. Immediately prior to the Effective Time, ADC shall deposit with the Exchange Agent, in trust for the benefit of the holders of shares of Andrew Common Stock, the shares of ADC Common Stock issuable pursuant to Section 2.1(a). In addition, ADC shall make available by depositing with the Exchange Agent, as necessary from time to time after the Effective Time as needed, cash in an amount sufficient to make the payments in lieu of fractional shares pursuant to Section 2.1(e) and any dividends or distributions to which holders of shares of Andrew Common Stock may be entitled pursuant to Section 2.2(c). All cash and ADC Common Stock deposited with the Exchange Agent shall hereinafter be referred to as the “Exchange Fund.”

(b) Exchange Procedures. Promptly after the Effective Time, ADC shall cause the Exchange Agent to mail to each holder of record of a certificate or certificates that immediately prior to the Effective Time represented outstanding shares of Andrew Common Stock and that at the Effective Time were converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 2.1 (the “Certificates”), (i) a letter of transmittal (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall pass, only upon delivery of the Certificates to the Exchange Agent) and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of the Certificates in exchange for whole shares of ADC Common Stock, cash in lieu of any fractional shares pursuant to Section 2.1(e) and any dividends or other distributions payable pursuant to Section 2.2(c). Upon surrender of Certificates for cancellation to the Exchange Agent, together with such letter of transmittal, duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, and such other documents as may reasonably be required by the Exchange Agent, the holder of such Certificates shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor the number of whole shares of ADC Common Stock to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 2.1 (which, as required by the ADC By-Laws (as defined in Section 3.1(b)), shall be issued in uncertificated book entry form only), payment in lieu of fractional shares which such holder is entitled to receive pursuant to Section 2.1(e) and any dividends or distributions payable pursuant to Section 2.2(c), and the Certificates so surrendered shall forthwith be canceled. In the event of a transfer of ownership of Andrew Common Stock which is not registered in the transfer records of Andrew, the proper number of shares of ADC Common Stock may be issued to a Person other than the Person in whose name the Certificate so surrendered is registered, if such Certificate shall be properly endorsed or otherwise be in proper form for transfer and the Person requesting such issuance shall pay any transfer or other taxes required by reason of the issuance of shares of ADC Common Stock to a Person other than the registered holder of such Certificate or establish to the reasonable satisfaction of ADC that such tax has been paid or is not applicable. Until surrendered as contemplated by this Section 2.2(b), each Certificate shall be deemed at any time after the Effective Time to represent only the right to receive the Merger Consideration (and any amounts to be paid pursuant to Section 2.2(c)) upon such surrender. No interest shall be paid or shall accrue on any amount payable pursuant to Section 2.1(e) or Section 2.2(c).

(c) Distributions with Respect to Unexchanged Shares. No dividends or other distributions with respect to ADC Common Stock with a record date after the Effective Time shall be paid to the holder of any unsurrendered Certificate with respect to the shares of ADC Common Stock represented thereby, and no cash payment in lieu of fractional shares shall be paid to any such holder pursuant to Section 2.1(e), until such Certificate has been surrendered in accordance with this Article II. Subject to Applicable Law (as defined in Section 3.7(a)), following surrender of any such Certificate, there shall be paid to the recordholder thereof, without interest, (i) promptly after such surrender, the number of whole shares of ADC Common Stock issuable in exchange therefor pursuant to this Article II, together with any cash payable in lieu of a fractional share of ADC Common Stock to which such holder is entitled pursuant to Section 2.1(e) and the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time theretofore paid with respect to such whole shares of ADC Common Stock, and (ii) at the appropriate payment date, the amount of dividends or other distributions with a record date after the Effective Time and a payment date subsequent to such surrender payable with respect to such whole shares of ADC Common Stock.

(d) No Further Ownership Rights in Andrew Common Stock. All shares of ADC Common Stock issued upon the surrender for exchange of Certificates in accordance with the terms of this Article II and any cash paid pursuant to Section 2.1(e) or Section 2.2(c) shall be deemed to have been issued (and paid) in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to the shares of Andrew Common Stock previously represented by such Certificates. At the Effective Time, the stock transfer books of Andrew shall be closed and there shall be no further registration of transfers on the stock transfer books of the Surviving Corporation of the shares of Andrew Common Stock which were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates are presented to the Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent for any reason, they shall be canceled and exchanged as provided in this Article II.

(e) Termination of Exchange Fund. Any portion of the Exchange Fund which remains undistributed to the holders of Certificates six months after the Effective Time shall be delivered to ADC, upon demand, and any holders of Certificates who have not theretofore complied with this Article II shall thereafter look only to ADC for payment of their claim for the Merger Consideration, and any dividends or distributions pursuant to Section 2.2(c).

(f) No Liability. None of ADC, Merger Sub, Surviving Corporation or the Exchange Agent shall be liable to any Person in respect of any shares of ADC Common Stock (or dividends or distributions with respect thereto) or cash from the Exchange Fund delivered to a public official pursuant to any applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar law. If any Certificate shall not have been surrendered prior to seven years after the Effective Time, or immediately prior to such earlier date on which any shares of ADC Common Stock, any cash in lieu of fractional shares of ADC Common Stock or any dividends or distributions with respect to ADC Common Stock issuable in respect of such Certificate would otherwise escheat to or become the property of any Governmental Entity (as defined in Section 3.3(e)), any such shares, cash, dividends or distributions in respect of such Certificate shall, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, become the property of the Surviving Corporation, free and clear of all claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.

(g) Withholding Rights. ADC or the Exchange Agent shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any consideration payable pursuant to this Agreement to any Person who was a holder of Andrew Common Stock, options or other securities or rights immediately prior to the Effective Time such amounts as ADC or the Exchange Agent may be required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment under the Code, or any provision of federal, state, local or foreign tax law. To the extent that amounts are so withheld by ADC or the Exchange Agent, such withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person to whom such consideration would otherwise have been paid.

(h) Lost, Stolen or Destroyed Certificates. In the event any Certificates shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, the Exchange Agent shall issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificates, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the holder thereof, such shares of ADC Common Stock as may be required pursuant to Section 2.1(a), cash for fractional shares pursuant to Section 2.1(e) and any dividends or distributions payable pursuant to Section 2.2(c); provided, however, that ADC may, in its reasonable discretion and as a condition precedent to the issuance thereof, require the owner of such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificates to deliver an agreement of indemnification in form reasonably satisfactory to ADC, or a bond in such sum as ADC may reasonably direct as indemnity, against any claim that may be made against ADC or the Exchange Agent in respect of the Certificates alleged to have been lost, stolen or destroyed.

(i) Investment of Exchange Fund. The Exchange Agent shall invest any cash included in the Exchange Fund as directed by ADC on a daily basis provided that no such investment or loss thereon shall affect the amounts payable to former stockholders of Andrew after the Effective Time pursuant to this Article II. Any interest and other income resulting from such investment shall become a part of the Exchange Fund and any amounts in excess of the amounts payable pursuant to this Article II shall promptly be paid to ADC.

(c) As promptly as practicable (and in any event within 48 hours) after receipt of any Alternative Transaction Proposal or any request for nonpublic information or any inquiry relating to any Alternative Transaction Proposal, ADC or Andrew, as the case may be, shall provide the other party with oral and written notice of the material terms and conditions of such Alternative Transaction Proposal, request or inquiry, and the identity of the Person or group making any such Alternative Transaction Proposal, request or inquiry. In addition, ADC or Andrew, as the case may be, shall provide the other party as promptly as practicable with oral and written notice setting forth all such information as is reasonably necessary to keep the other party informed in all material respects of all material developments regarding the status and terms (including material amendments or proposed material amendments) of, any such Alternative Transaction Proposal, request or inquiry, and, without limitation of the other provisions of this Section 5.2, shall promptly provide to the other party a copy of all written materials (including written materials provided by e-mail or otherwise in electronic format) subsequently provided by or to it in connection with such Alternative Transaction Proposal, request or inquiry.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 5.2(b), in the event that ADC or Andrew, as the case may be, receives an unsolicited, bona fide Alternative Transaction Proposal which is determined by its Board of Directors to be, or to be reasonably likely to lead to, a Superior Proposal, it may then take the following actions (but only (1) if and to the extent that (x) its Board of Directors concludes in good faith, after receipt of advice of its outside legal counsel, that the failure to do so is reasonably likely to result in a breach of its fiduciary obligations to its stockholders under Applicable Law and (y) ADC or Andrew, as the case may be, has given the other party at least three business days’ prior written notice of its intention to take any of the following actions and of the identity of the Person or group making such Superior Proposal and the material terms and conditions of such Superior Proposal and (2) if it shall not have breached in any material respect any of the provisions of this Section 5.2 or Section 5.4):

(i) furnish nonpublic information to the Person or group making such Superior Proposal, provided that (A) prior to furnishing any such nonpublic information, it receives from such Person or group an executed confidentiality agreement containing terms at least as restrictive as the terms contained in the Confidentiality Agreement, dated as of May 1, 2006, between Andrew and ADC (the “CA”), and (B) contemporaneously with furnishing any such nonpublic information to such Person or group, it furnishes such nonpublic information to the other party hereto (to the extent such nonpublic information has not been previously so furnished to such party); and

(ii) engage in negotiations with such Person or group with respect to such Superior Proposal; provided, however, in no event shall such party enter into any definitive agreement to effect such Superior Proposal.

(e) Nothing contained in this Agreement shall prohibit ADC or Andrew or their respective Boards of Directors from taking and disclosing to their stockholders a position contemplated by Rules 14d-9 and 14e-2(a) promulgated under the Exchange Act or making any disclosure required by Applicable Law.

5.3 Board of Directors Recommendation.

(a) In response to the receipt of an unsolicited, bona fide Alternative Transaction Proposal which is determined by the Board of Directors of Andrew or ADC, as the case may be, to be a Superior Proposal, such Board of Directors may withhold, withdraw, amend or modify its recommendation in favor of, in the case of Andrew, approval and adoption of this Agreement and the Merger and, in the case of ADC, the ADC Share Issuance, and, in the case of a Superior Proposal that is a tender or exchange offer made directly to its stockholders, may recommend that its stockholders accept the tender or exchange offer (any of the foregoing actions, whether by a Board of Directors or a committee thereof, a “Change of Recommendation”) if the Board of Directors of ADC or Andrew, as the case may be, has concluded in good faith, after receipt of advice of its outside legal counsel, that, in light of such Superior Proposal, the failure of the Board of Directors to effect a Change of Recommendation is reasonably likely to result in a breach of its fiduciary obligations to its stockholders under Applicable Law.

(b) Prior to announcing any Change of Recommendation pursuant to Section 5.3(a), ADC or Andrew, as the case may be, shall (A) provide to the other party hereto three business days’ prior written notice which shall (x) state expressly that it intends to effect a Change of Recommendation and (y) describe any modifications to the material terms and conditions of the Superior Proposal and the identity of the Person or group making the Superior Proposal from the description of such terms and conditions and such Person contained in the notice required under Section 5.2(d), (B) make available to the other party hereto all materials and information made available to the Person or group making the Superior Proposal in connection with such Superior Proposal, and (C) during the three business-day period commencing upon receipt of the notice described in Section 5.3(b)(A), if requested by the other party hereto, engage in good faith negotiations to amend this Agreement in such a manner that the Alternative Transaction Proposal which was determined to be a Superior Proposal no longer is a Superior Proposal.

(c) In addition to the circumstances set forth in Section 5.3(a), the Board of Directors of ADC may effect a Change of Recommendation (but only insofar as the same involves withholding, withdrawing, amending or modifying its recommendation in favor of the ADC Share Issuance) if there shall have occurred and be continuing:

(i) a Material Adverse Change of Andrew since the date of this Agreement, or

(ii) any other event, occurrence or circumstance as a result of which, in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of ADC, after consultation with outside counsel of ADC, the failure to effect a Change in Recommendation would violate the fiduciary duties of the ADC Board of Directors to ADC’s shareholders under Applicable Law.

(d) In addition to the circumstances set forth in Section 5.3(a), the Board of Directors of Andrew may effect a Change of Recommendation (but only insofar as the same involves withholding, withdrawing, amending or modifying its recommendation in favor of the approval and adoption of this Agreement and the Merger) if there shall have occurred and be continuing:

(i) a Material Adverse Change of ADC since the date of this Agreement, or

(ii) any other event, occurrence or circumstance as a result of which, in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors of Andrew, after consultation with outside counsel of Andrew, the failure to effect a Change in Recommendation would violate the fiduciary duties of the Andrew Board of Directors to Andrew’s stockholders under Applicable Law.

(e) If the Board of Directors of Andrew or ADC has effected a Change of Recommendation, Andrew or ADC, as applicable, shall promptly notify the other party in writing of such Change in Recommendation, including the specific subparagraph, but not more than one subparagraph, of Section 5.3 in reliance upon which such Change in Recommendation is made. If the other party thereafter terminates this Agreement in accordance with Section 8.1 based upon such notice, then the termination effects with respect to the specific subparagraph identified in such notice that are set forth in Section 8.3 shall apply.

5.4 Company Stockholder Meetings. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the obligation of ADC or Andrew to call, give notice of, convene and hold the ADC Shareholders’ Meeting or the Andrew Stockholders’ Meeting, as the case may be, shall not be limited or otherwise affected by the commencement, disclosure, announcement or submission to it of any Alternative Transaction Proposal with respect to it, or by any Change of Recommendation. At any such meeting, neither ADC nor Andrew shall submit to the vote of its respective stockholders any Alternative Transaction, whether or not a Superior Proposal has been received by it, or propose to do so.

5.5 Control of Other Party’s Business. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed to give ADC, directly or indirectly, the right to control or direct Andrew’s operations or give Andrew, directly or indirectly, the right to control or direct ADC’s operations, in each case, prior to the Effective Time. Prior to the Effective Time, each of ADC and Andrew shall exercise, on the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, complete control and supervision over its respective operations.

(a) As soon as practicable following the date of this Agreement, Andrew and ADC shall agree upon the terms of, prepare and file with the SEC the Joint Proxy Statement, and ADC shall prepare and file with the SEC the Form S-4, in which the Joint Proxy Statement will be included as a prospectus. Each of Andrew and ADC shall use commercially reasonable efforts to have the Form S-4 declared effective under the Securities Act as promptly as practicable after such filing. Andrew will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Joint Proxy Statement to be mailed to Andrew’s stockholders, and ADC will use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the Joint Proxy Statement to be mailed to ADC’s stockholders, in each case as promptly as practicable after the Form S-4 is declared effective under the Securities Act. ADC shall also take any action (other than qualifying to do business in any jurisdiction in which it is not now so qualified or to file a general consent to service of process) reasonably required to be taken under any applicable state securities laws in connection with the ADC Share Issuance and, and Andrew shall furnish all information concerning Andrew and the holders of Andrew Common Stock as may be reasonably requested in connection with any such action. Each party shall cooperate and provide the other party with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on any amendment or supplement to the Form S-4 or the Joint Proxy Statement or any filing with the SEC incorporated by reference in the Form S-4 or the Joint Proxy Statement, in each case prior to filing such with the SEC, except where doing so would cause the filing to not be filed timely, without regard to any extension pursuant to Rule 12b-25 of the Exchange Act; provided, however, that each party shall be deemed to have consented to the inclusion in the Form S-4, the Joint Proxy Statement or any filing with the SEC incorporated by reference in the Form S-4 or the Joint Proxy Statement of any information, language or content specifically agreed to by such party or its counsel on or prior to the date hereof for inclusion therein. ADC will advise Andrew promptly after it receives notice of (i) the time when the Form S-4 has become effective or any supplement or amendment has been filed, (ii) the issuance or threat of any stop order, (iii) the suspension of the qualification of the ADC Common Stock issuable in connection with this Agreement for offering or sale in any jurisdiction, or (iv) any request by the SEC for amendment of the Joint Proxy Statement or the Form S-4 or comments thereon and responses thereto or requests by the SEC for additional information. If at any time prior to the Effective Time any information (including any Change of Recommendation) relating to Andrew or ADC, or any of their respective Affiliates, officers or directors, should be discovered by Andrew or ADC which should be set forth in an amendment or supplement to any of the Form S-4 or the Joint Proxy Statement, so that any of such documents would not include any misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, the party which discovers such information shall promptly notify the other parties hereto and an appropriate amendment or supplement, including, where appropriate, a filing pursuant to Rules 165 and 425 of the Securities Act, describing such information shall promptly be filed with the SEC and, to the extent required by law, disseminated to the stockholders of Andrew and ADC.

(b) Each of ADC and Andrew shall, as promptly as practicable after the Form S-4 is declared effective under the Securities Act, take all action necessary in accordance with Applicable Law and the ADC Organizational Documents, in the case of ADC, and the Andrew Organizational Documents, in the case of Andrew, to duly give notice of, convene and hold a meeting of its stockholders to be held as promptly as practicable to consider, in the case of Andrew, the approval and adoption of this Agreement and the Merger (the “Andrew Stockholders’ Meeting”), and, in the case of ADC, the ADC Share Issuance (the “ADC Shareholders’ Meeting”). Except in the case of a Change of Recommendation in accordance with Section 5.3, each of ADC and Andrew will use commercially reasonable efforts to solicit from its stockholders proxies in favor of, in the case of Andrew, the approval and adoption of this Agreement and the Merger and, in the case of ADC, the ADC Share Issuance, and will take all other action reasonably necessary or advisable to secure the vote or consent of its stockholders required by the rules of NASDAQ or Applicable Law to obtain such approvals. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, ADC or Andrew may adjourn or postpone the ADC Shareholders’ Meeting or Andrew Stockholders’ Meeting, as the case may be, to the extent necessary to ensure that any necessary supplement or amendment to the Joint Proxy Statement is provided to its respective stockholders in advance of a vote on, in the case of Andrew, the adoption and approval of this Agreement and the Merger and, in the case of ADC, the ADC Share Issuance, or, if, as of the time for which the ADC Shareholders’ Meeting or Andrew Stockholders’ Meeting, as the case may be, is originally scheduled, there are insufficient shares of ADC Common Stock or Andrew Common Stock, as the case may be, represented (either in person or by proxy) to constitute a quorum necessary to conduct the business of such meeting. Each of ADC and Andrew shall use commercially reasonable efforts such that the ADC Shareholders’ Meeting and the Andrew Stockholders’ Meeting, respectively, is called, noticed, convened, held and conducted, and that all proxies solicited in connection with the ADC Shareholders’ Meeting or Andrew Stockholders’ Meeting, as the case may be, are solicited in compliance with Applicable Law, the rules of the NASDAQ and, in the case of ADC, the ADC Organizational Documents, and, in the case of Andrew, the Andrew Organizational Documents. Without the prior written consent of Andrew, the ADC Share Issuance is the only matter which ADC shall propose to be acted on by ADC’s shareholders at the ADC Shareholders’ Meeting. Without the prior written consent of ADC, the approval and adoption of this Agreement and the Merger is the only matter which Andrew shall propose to be acted on by Andrew’s stockholders at the Andrew Stockholders’ Meeting.

(c) Each of ADC and Andrew will use commercially reasonable efforts to hold the ADC Shareholders’ Meeting and Andrew Stockholders’ Meeting, respectively, on the same date as the other party and as soon as reasonably practicable after the date of this Agreement, subject to the requirements of Instruction D.3 to Schedule 14A (Rule 14a-101) promulgated under the Exchange Act.

(d) Except to the extent expressly permitted by Section 5.3: (i) the Board of Directors of each of Andrew and ADC shall recommend that its stockholders vote in favor of, in the case of Andrew, the approval and adoption of this Agreement and the Merger at the Andrew Stockholders’ Meeting, and, in the case of ADC, the ADC Share Issuance at the ADC Shareholders’ Meeting, (ii) the Joint Proxy Statement shall include a statement to the effect that the Board of Directors of (A) ADC has recommended that ADC’s shareholders vote in favor of the ADC Share Issuance at the ADC Shareholders’ Meeting and (B) Andrew has recommended that Andrew’s stockholders vote in favor of approval and adoption of this Agreement and the Merger at the Andrew Stockholders’ Meeting, and (iii) neither the Board of Directors of ADC or Andrew nor any committee thereof shall withdraw, amend or modify, or propose or resolve to withdraw, amend or modify in a manner adverse to the other party, the recommendation of its respective Board of Directors that the respective stockholders of ADC or Andrew vote in favor of, in the case of Andrew, the approval and adoption of this Agreement and the Merger, and, in the case of ADC, the ADC Share Issuance.

6.2 Access to Information; Confidentiality.

(a) Subject to the CA and Applicable Law, each of Andrew and ADC shall, and shall cause each of its respective Subsidiaries to, afford to the other party and to the officers, employees, accountants, counsel, financial advisors and other representatives of such other party, reasonable access during normal business hours during the period prior to the Effective Time to all their respective properties, books, contracts, commitments, personnel and records (provided that such access shall not interfere with the business or operations of such party) and, during such period, each of Andrew and ADC shall, and shall cause each of its respective Subsidiaries to, furnish promptly to the other party (a) a copy of each report, schedule, registration statement and other document filed by it during such period pursuant to the requirements of federal or state securities laws and (b) all other information concerning its business, properties and personnel as such other party may reasonably request. No review pursuant to this Section 6.2 shall affect or be deemed to modify any representation or warranty contained herein, the covenants or agreements of the parties hereto or the conditions to the obligations of the parties hereto under this Agreement.

(b) Each of Andrew and ADC will hold, and will cause its respective officers, employees, accountants, counsel, financial advisors and other representatives and Affiliates to hold, any nonpublic information received from the other party in confidence in accordance with the terms of the CA.

(c) If, on the date that is five business days before the date that the parties’ obligations under the CA terminate, (i) the Effective Time has not occurred and (ii) this Agreement has not been terminated pursuant to Section 8.1, then the parties shall amend the CA to extend the term of each party’s obligations under the CA to earlier of (A) the Effective Time and (B) the date on which this Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 8.1.

6.3 Commercially Reasonable Efforts.

(a) Upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement, each of the parties agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and to do, or cause to be done, and to assist and cooperate with the other parties in doing, all things necessary, proper or advisable to consummate and make effective, in the most expeditious manner practicable, the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including commercially reasonable efforts to accomplish the following: (i) the taking of all acts necessary to cause the conditions to the Closing to be satisfied (but in no event shall a party be required to waive any such condition) as promptly as practicable; (ii) the obtaining of all necessary actions or nonactions, waivers, consents, clearances and approvals from Governmental Entities and the making of all necessary registrations and filings, including all filings required by the HSR Act (the initial filing required by the HSR Act to be filed as soon as reasonably practicable, but in any event within 15 days, following the execution of this Agreement) and any applicable antitrust, competition or similar laws of any foreign jurisdiction, and the taking of all steps as may be necessary to obtain an approval, clearance or waiver from, or to avoid an action or proceeding by, any Governmental Entity, (iii) the obtaining of all necessary consents, approvals or waivers from third parties, (iv) the defending of any lawsuits or other legal proceedings, whether judicial or administrative, challenging this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including seeking to have any stay or temporary restraining order entered by any court or other Governmental Entity vacated or reversed, and (v) the execution and delivery of any additional instruments necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated by, and to fully carry out the purposes of, this Agreement. In furtherance of the covenants contained in Sections 6.3(a)(ii) and 6.3(a)(iv), ADC and Andrew shall, if required by one or more Governmental Entities acting pursuant to any applicable antitrust, competition or similar laws to obtain any of the actions or nonactions, waivers, consents, clearances, approvals, or avoidance of actions or proceedings referred to in Sections 6.3(a)(ii), or pursuant to Section 6.3(a)(iv) or if required by a federal, state or foreign court, agree to the divestiture by ADC, Andrew or any of their respective Subsidiaries of shares of capital stock or of any business, assets or property of ADC or its Subsidiaries or Andrew or its Subsidiaries and the imposition of any limitation on the ability of ADC or its Subsidiaries or Andrew or its Subsidiaries to conduct their respective businesses or to own or exercise control of their respective assets, properties and stock (including licenses, hold separate agreements, covenants affecting business operating practices or similar matters) if such divestitures and limitations, individually or in the aggregate, would not be reasonably expected to result in the loss of annualized revenue of ADC and Andrew on a combined consolidated basis of more than $225,000,000. Subject to Applicable Laws relating to the exchange of information and in addition to Section 6.3(b), ADC and Andrew, or their respective counsel, shall have the right to review in advance, and to the extent practicable each will consult the other on, all the information relating to ADC and its Subsidiaries or Andrew and its Subsidiaries, as the case may be, that appears in any filing made with, or written materials submitted to, any third party or any Governmental Entity in connection with the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

(b) Subject to Applicable Laws relating to the exchange of information, each of Andrew and ADC shall keep the other reasonably apprised of the status of matters relating to the completion of the transactions contemplated hereby and work cooperatively in connection with obtaining all required approvals, consents or clearances of any Governmental Entity (whether domestic, foreign or supranational). In that regard, each party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to: (i) promptly notify the other of, and if in writing, furnish the other with copies of (or, in the case of material oral communications, advise the other orally of) any communications from or with any Governmental Entity (whether domestic, foreign or supranational) with respect to the Merger or any of the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) permit the other to review and discuss in advance, and consider in good faith the views of the other in connection with, any proposed written (or any material proposed oral) communication with any such Governmental Entity, (iii) not participate in any meeting with any such Governmental Entity unless it consults with the other in advance and to the extent permitted by such Governmental Entity gives the other the opportunity to attend and participate thereat, (iv) furnish the other with copies of all correspondence, filings and communications (and memoranda setting forth the substance thereof) between it and any such Governmental Entity with respect to this Agreement and the Merger, and (v) furnish the other with such necessary information and reasonable assistance as Andrew or ADC may reasonably request in connection with its preparation of necessary filings or submissions of information to any such Governmental Entity. Each of Andrew and ADC shall designate any competitively sensitive material provided to the other under this Section 6.3 as “outside counsel only.” Such material and the information contained therein shall be given only to the outside legal counsel of the recipient and will not be disclosed by such outside counsel to employees, officers, or directors of the recipient unless express permission is obtained in advance from the source of the materials (Andrew or ADC, as the case may be) or its legal counsel.

(c) In connection with and without limiting the foregoing, Andrew and ADC shall (i) take all action necessary to ensure that no state takeover statute or similar statute or regulation is or becomes applicable to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby and (ii) if any state takeover statute or similar statute or regulation becomes applicable to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby, take all action necessary to ensure that such transactions may be consummated as promptly as practicable on the terms required by, or provided for, in this Agreement and otherwise to minimize the effect of such statute or regulation on the Merger and the other transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

6.4 Indemnification and Insurance.

(a) Immediately after the Effective Time, the certificate of incorporation and by-laws of the Surviving Corporation will contain provisions with respect to exculpation and indemnification that are at least as favorable to the present and former officers and directors of Andrew and its Subsidiaries (each an “Indemnified Party”) as those contained in the Andrew Charter and the Andrew By-laws as in effect on the date hereof, which provisions will not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified for a period of six years from the Effective Time in any manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of individuals who, immediately prior to the Effective Time, were directors, officers, employees or agents of Andrew, unless such modification is required by law. ADC shall cause the Surviving Corporation to indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnified Party against all claims, losses, liabilities, damages, judgments, inquiries, fines and reasonable fees, costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees and disbursements incurred in connection with any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, arising out of actions taken by them in their capacity as officers or directors at or prior to the Effective Time (including in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby), or taken by them at the request of Andrew, ADC, the Surviving Corporation or any of their respective Subsidiaries, whether asserted or claimed prior to, at or after the Effective Time, to the fullest extent permitted under Applicable Law for a period of six years after the Effective Time. Each Indemnified Party shall be entitled to advancement of expenses incurred in the defense of any claim, action, suit, proceeding or investigation from the Surviving Corporation within ten Business Days of receipt of the Surviving Corporation from the Indemnified Party of a request therefor; provided, however, that any Indemnified Party to whom expenses are advanced provides an undertaking to repay such advances if it is ultimately determined that such person is not entitled to indemnification. Neither ADC nor the Surviving Corporation shall settle, compromise or consent to the entry of any judgment in any proceeding or threatened action, suit, proceeding, investigation or claim in which indemnification could be sought by such Indemnified Party hereunder, without the consent of such Indemnified Party, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, unless such settlement, compromise or consent includes an unconditional release of such Indemnified Party from all liability arising out of such action, suit, proceeding, investigation or claim.

(b) Prior to the Effective Time, ADC shall purchase a directors’ and officers’ and fiduciary liability insurance policy providing coverage for a period of at least six years following the Effective Time (i) for persons who were officers and/or directors of Andrew prior to the Effective Time and (ii) for persons who were officers and/or directors of ADC prior to the Effective Time and who are not officers or directors of ADC immediately following the Effective Time, in each case for claims arising after the Effective Time from facts or events which occurred at or prior to the Effective Time, and in each case, which policy shall provide for at least the same coverage and amounts containing terms and conditions that are not less advantageous than the respective policies of ADC and Andrew, as in place at the Effective Time; provided, however, that in no event will ADC be required to expend in any year an amount in excess of 250% of the annual aggregate premiums currently paid by ADC or Andrew, as applicable, for such insurance (the “Maximum Premium”). If such insurance coverage cannot be obtained at all, or can only be obtained at an annual premium in excess of the Maximum Premium, ADC will cause to be maintained the most advantageous policies of directors’ and officers’ insurance obtainable for an annual premium equal to the Maximum Premium.

(c) In the event that ADC or any of its successors or assigns (i) consolidates with or merges into any other Person and is not the continuing or surviving corporation or entity of such consolidation or merger or (ii) transfers or conveys all or substantially all of its properties and assets to any Person, then, and in each such case, proper provision will be made so that the successors and assigns of ADC assume the obligations set forth in this Section 6.4.

(d) The provisions of this Section 6.4 are intended for the benefit of, and will be enforceable by, each Indemnified Party and his or her heirs and representatives, and are in addition to, and not in substitution for, any other rights to indemnification or contribution that any such Indemnified Party may have had by contract or otherwise.

6.5 Fees and Expenses. Except as otherwise set forth in this Section 6.5 and in Section 8.3, all fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Merger, this Agreement and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be paid by the party incurring such fees or expenses (including each party’s fees and expenses incurred in connection with the printing and mailing of the Joint Proxy Statement to its respective shareholders), whether or not the Merger is consummated, provided that Andrew shall pay any foreign, state or local real estate transfer or similar taxes imposed on the stockholders of Andrew as a result of the transactions contemplated in this Agreement. ADC and Andrew shall each bear one-half of the filing fees required by the HSR Act and any antitrust, competition or similar laws of any foreign jurisdiction. ADC shall bear the fee to the SEC for the Form S-4 (including any amendments thereto).

6.6 Announcements. ADC and Andrew will consult with each other before issuing, and will provide each other the opportunity to review, comment upon and concur with, and use commercially reasonable efforts to agree on, any press release, public statements or other announcements with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, including any announcement to employees, customers, suppliers or others having dealings with ADC or Andrew, respectively, or similar publicity with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and shall not issue any such press release or make any such public statement or other announcement prior to such consultation, except as either party may determine is required by Applicable Law, court process or by obligations pursuant to any listing agreement with any national securities exchange or stock market.

6.8 Tax-Free Reorganization Treatment. Andrew and ADC intend that the Merger will qualify as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code, and each shall, and shall cause its respective Subsidiaries to, use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Merger to so qualify. Neither Andrew nor ADC shall knowingly take any action, cause any action to be taken, fail to take any commercially reasonable action or cause any commercially reasonable action to fail to be taken, which action or failure to act would reasonably be expected to (i) prevent the Merger from qualifying as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368 of the Code or (ii) cause Andrew, Merger Sub or ADC to be unable to make the representations necessary for counsel to render the tax opinions referred to in Section 7.1(h).

6.10 Equity Awards, Andrew Warrant and Andrew Note.

(a) At the Effective Time, each then outstanding Andrew Option, whether or not exercisable at the Effective Time, will be assumed by ADC. Each Andrew Option so assumed by ADC under this Agreement will continue to have, and be subject to, the same terms and conditions set forth in the applicable Andrew Option (including any Andrew Stock Plan under which such Andrew Option was issued and any applicable stock option agreement or other document evidencing such Andrew Option) immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that (i) each Andrew Option will be exercisable for that number of whole shares of ADC Common Stock equal to the product of the number of shares of Andrew Common Stock that were issuable upon exercise of such Andrew Option immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by the Exchange Ratio, rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares of ADC Common Stock and (ii) the per share exercise price for the shares of ADC Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such assumed Andrew Option will be equal to the quotient determined by dividing the exercise price per share of such Andrew Option by the Exchange Ratio, rounded up to the nearest whole cent. As of the Effective Time, all references in the Andrew Stock Plans to Andrew Common Stock shall thereafter be deemed to be references to ADC Common Stock. As soon as reasonably practicable following the Effective Time, but in no event later than five business days following the Effective Time, ADC shall file a registration statement under the Securities Act on Form S-8 or another appropriate form (and use its commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the effectiveness thereof and maintain the current status of the prospectuses contained therein) with respect to Andrew Options assumed by ADC pursuant hereto and shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to remain in effect for so long as such assumed Andrew Option shall remain outstanding. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Andrew Stock Plans provide for accelerated vesting, at the Effective Time, of the Andrew Options. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, between the date hereof and the Effective Time, Andrew shall not grant any options, restricted stock units or make any other award or grant under the Andrew 2005 Long-Term Incentive Plan.

(b) At the Effective Time, the Andrew Warrant will be assumed by ADC. The Andrew Warrant will continue to have, and be subject to, the same terms and conditions set forth in the Andrew Warrant immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that (i) the Andrew Warrant will be exercisable for that number of whole shares of ADC Common Stock equal to the product of the number of shares of Andrew Common Stock that were issuable upon exercise of the Andrew Warrant immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by the Exchange Ratio, rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares of ADC Common Stock and (ii) the per share exercise price for the shares of ADC Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Andrew Warrant will be equal to the quotient determined by dividing the exercise price per share of the Andrew Warrant by the Exchange Ratio, rounded up to the nearest whole cent. As of the Effective Time, all references in the Andrew Warrant to Andrew Common Stock shall thereafter be deemed to be references to ADC Common Stock.

(c) At the Effective Time and subject to the satisfaction of the condition set forth in Section 7.1(i), the Andrew Notes will be assumed by ADC. The Andrew Notes will continue to have, and be subject to, the same terms and conditions set forth in the Andrew Note and the Andrew Indenture immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that the Andrew Notes will be convertible into that number of whole shares of ADC Common Stock equal to the product of the number of shares of Andrew Common Stock that were issuable upon conversion of such Andrew Notes immediately prior to the Effective Time multiplied by the Exchange Ratio, rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares of ADC Common Stock. As of the Effective Time, all references in the Andrew Notes and the Andrew Indenture to Andrew Common Stock shall thereafter be deemed to be references to ADC Common Stock.

(d) At the Effective Time, all restricted stock units granted under the Andrew Stock Plans will vest as provided under the Andrew Stock Plans and will be converted into the right to receive the number of whole shares of ADC Common Stock equal to the product of the number of shares of Andrew Common Stock to which such restricted stock units relate multiplied by the Exchange Ratio, rounded down to the nearest whole number of shares of ADC Common Stock. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Andrew Stock Plans provide for the lapse, at the Effective Time, of any restrictions on restricted stock units issued pursuant to the Andrew Stock Plans.

(e) At the Effective Time, any share of Andrew Common Stock issued under the Andrew Stock Plans with restrictions or limitations on transfer with respect thereto shall be treated in accordance with the terms of the respective Andrew Stock Plan under which such shares were issued, and the shares of ADC Common Stock issued in exchange for such Andrew Common Stock hereunder shall have the same restrictions and limitations, if any, as such shares of Andrew Common Stock exchanged therefor at the Effective Time. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the Andrew Purchase Plan provides for the lapse, at the Effective Time, of any restrictions on Andrew Common Stock issued pursuant to the Andrew Purchase Plan.

(f) Andrew and ADC shall take any and all actions necessary to effect the provisions of Section 2.1(d) above pursuant to the Andrew Indenture.

6.11 Employee Benefits.

(a) For one year following the Effective Time, with respect to each country in which Andrew has an employee workforce, ADC shall provide or cause to be provided to the employee workforce of the Surviving Corporation and the other members of the employee workforce of any other Affiliate of ADC who were employees of Andrew or any of its Subsidiaries immediately prior to the Effective Time (“Continuing Employees”), employee benefits that, in the aggregate, are no less favorable than the employee benefits package provided to the Continuing Employees in such country by Andrew or any of its Subsidiaries; provided, however, that, subject to Applicable Law, if ADC has an employee workforce in such country, ADC may, in lieu thereof, provide to the Continuing Employees the benefits package offered to ADC’s employee workforce in such country immediately prior to the execution of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 6.11(a) to the contrary, each employee of Andrew or any of its Subsidiaries, other than any director or officer of Andrew, who is covered and eligible for benefits under an Andrew Domestic Benefit Plan that provides for payment of cash severance benefits upon certain employment termination shall, upon termination of employment within one year following the Effective Time receive the severance benefits provided by either the ADC Domestic Benefit Plans or the Andrew Domestic Benefit Plans applicable to non-officer and non-director employees. The designation of whether the ADC Domestic Benefit Plans or the Andrew Domestic Benefit Plans will be applicable shall be determined by which set of benefit plans would pay the highest cash severance payments to such terminated employee.

(b) Following the Effective Time, ADC shall recognize (or cause to be recognized) the service of each Continuing Employee with Andrew or any of its Subsidiaries for purposes of (i) eligibility and vesting under any ADC Benefit Plan, (ii) determination of benefits levels under any vacation or severance ADC Benefit Plan and (iii) determination of “retiree” status under any ADC Benefit Plan, for which the Continuing Employee is otherwise eligible and in which the Continuing Employee is offered participation, in each case except where such crediting would result in a duplication of benefits. To the extent ADC establishes or designates an ADC Benefit Plan to provide group health benefits to Continuing Employees, (x) each such ADC Benefit Plan shall waive pre-existing condition limitations with respect to Continuing Employees to the same extent waived or no longer applicable under the applicable group health plan of Andrew and (y) each Continuing Employee shall be given credit under the applicable ADC Benefit Plan for amounts paid under the corresponding group health plan of Andrew or an Affiliate during the plan year in which the Effective Time occurs for purposes of applying deductibles, co-payments and out-of-pocket maximums for such plan year.

(c) As of the Effective Time, ADC shall assume all rights (including the rights to modify in accordance with their terms) under and agree to perform in accordance with their terms (i) all employment, severance and other compensation agreements and arrangements existing as of the date hereof (and provided to ADC by Andrew prior to the date hereof) between Andrew or any of its Subsidiaries and any director, officer or employee thereof, and (ii) any such agreements or arrangements entered into after the date hereof and prior to the Effective Time by Andrew or any of its Subsidiaries in compliance with the terms of this Agreement.

(d) Andrew shall, if requested to do so by ADC, take any action required to terminate its defined contribution 401(k) plan, such termination to be effective immediately prior to the Effective Time and to be contingent upon the Closing; provided, however, that Andrew shall make a profit sharing contribution to such plan for 2006 for allocation among eligible employees. ADC shall provide, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to provide, that each Continuing Employee who is a participant in Andrew’s 401(k) plan shall be given the opportunity to “roll over” his or her account balance (including any promissory note evidencing an outstanding loan) from the terminated plan to a tax-qualified defined contribution plan maintained by ADC or the Surviving Corporation.

(e) Without limiting the generality of Section 9.7, nothing in this Agreement will be construed to create a right in any employee of Andrew or any Subsidiary to employment with ADC, the Surviving Corporation or any other Subsidiary of ADC or grant or create any right in any employee or beneficiary of such employee under an ADC Benefit Plan or an Andrew Benefit Plan.

6.12 Consents of Accountants. Andrew and ADC will each use commercially reasonable efforts to cause to be delivered to each other consents from their respective independent auditors, dated the date on which the Form S-4 is filed with the SEC, is amended or supplemented, or becomes effective or a date not more than two days prior to such date, in form reasonably satisfactory to the recipient and customary in scope and substance for consents delivered by independent public accountants in connection with registration statements on Form S-4 under the Securities Act.

6.13 Directors and Chief Executive Officer of ADC. The Board of Directors of ADC shall take all action within its power so that:

(a) immediately following the Effective Time, the (i) Board of Directors of ADC shall consist of 12 directors, who shall be the four Persons identified in Section 6.13(a) of the Andrew Disclosure Letter (collectively the “Andrew Designated Directors”) and the eight Persons identified in Section 6.13(a) of the ADC Disclosure Letter (collectively the “ADC Designated Directors”), and each such director shall serve for a term expiring at ADC’s annual meeting of shareholders for the year indicated in Section 6.13(a) of the Andrew Disclosure Letter or the ADC Disclosure Letter, as appropriate, and (ii) the Chairman of the Board of Directors of ADC shall be ADC’s Chairman of the Board of Directors immediately prior to the Effective Time; and

(b) immediately following the Effective Time, the chief executive officer of ADC shall be ADC’s chief executive officer immediately prior to the Effective Time.

Section 6.14 of the Andrew Disclosure Letter sets forth a list of those Persons who are, in Andrew’s reasonable judgment, “affiliates” of Andrew within the meaning of Rule 145 promulgated under the Securities Act (“Rule 145 Affiliates”). Andrew shall notify ADC in writing regarding any change in the identity of its Rule 145 Affiliates prior to the Closing Date. ADC shall be entitled to issue appropriate stop transfer instructions to the transfer agent for ADC Common Stock (provided that such legends or stop transfer instructions shall be removed one year after the Effective Time upon the request of any holder of shares of ADC Common Stock issued in the Merger if such holder is not then a Rule 145 Affiliate).

6.15 Notification of Certain Matters. Andrew shall give prompt notice to ADC, and ADC shall give prompt notice to Andrew, of the occurrence, or failure to occur, of any event, which is in Andrew’s or ADC’s Knowledge, as applicable, and as to which the occurrence or failure to occur would reasonably be likely to result in the failure of any of the conditions set forth in Article VII to be satisfied. Each of the parties shall give prompt written notice to the other party of any material correction to any of the ADC SEC Documents or the Andrew SEC Documents, as the case may be, from and after the date hereof. Notwithstanding the above, the delivery of any notice pursuant to this Section 6.15 will not limit or otherwise affect the remedies available hereunder to the party receiving such notice or the conditions to such party’s obligation to consummate the Merger.

6.16 Section 16 Matters.

(a) Prior to the Effective Time, Andrew’s Board of Directors, or an appropriate committee of non-employee directors of Andrew, shall, if necessary, adopt a resolution consistent with the SEC’s interpretive guidance to approve the disposition by any officer or director of Andrew who is a “covered person” of Andrew for the purposes of Section 16 of the Exchange Act of Andrew Common Stock or Andrew Stock Options pursuant to this Agreement and the Merger for the purposes of qualifying the disposition as an exempt transaction under Section 16 of the Exchange Act.

(b) Prior to the Effective Time, ADC’s Board of Directors, or an appropriate committee of non-employee directors of ADC, shall, if necessary, adopt a resolution consistent with the SEC’s interpretive guidance to approve the acquisition by any officer or director of Andrew who will become a “covered person” of ADC for the purposes of Section 16 of the Exchange Act of ADC Common Stock or ADC Stock Options pursuant to this Agreement and the Merger for the purposes of qualifying the acquisition as an exempt transaction under Section 16 of the Exchange Act.

6.17 Rights Plans; State Takeover Laws.

(a) Prior to the Effective Time, neither ADC nor Andrew shall redeem the ADC Rights or the Andrew Rights, respectively, or amend, modify (other than to delay any “distribution date” therein or to render the ADC Rights or the Andrew Rights inapplicable to the Merger or any action permitted under this Agreement) or terminate the ADC Rights Agreement or the Andrew Rights Agreements unless (i) required to do so by order of a court of competent jurisdiction or (ii) Andrew’s or ADC’s Board of Directors, as the case may be, has concluded in good faith, after receipt of advice of its outside legal counsel, that, in light of a Superior Proposal with respect to it, the failure to effect such amendment, modification or termination is reasonably likely to result in a breach of its Board of Directors’ fiduciary obligations to its stockholders under Applicable Law.

(b) Prior to the Effective Time, neither ADC nor Andrew shall take any action to render inapplicable, or to exempt any third Person from, any state takeover law or state law that purports to limit or restrict business combinations or the ability to acquire or vote shares of capital stock unless (i) required to do so by order of a court of competent jurisdiction or (ii) Andrew’s or ADC’s Board of Directors, as the case may be, has concluded in good faith, after receipt of advice of its outside legal counsel, that, in light of a Superior Proposal with respect to it, the failure to take such action is reasonably likely to result in a breach of its Board of Directors’ fiduciary obligations to its stockholders under Applicable Law.

6.18 Reservation of ADC Common Stock. Effective at or prior to the Effective Time, ADC shall reserve out of its reserved but unissued shares of ADC Common Stock sufficient shares of ADC Common Stock to provide for (i) the conversion of the issued and outstanding shares of Andrew Common Stock pursuant to this Agreement, (ii) the issuance of ADC Common Stock under the Andrew Stock Plans, (iii) the issuance of ADC Common Stock upon the exercise of the Andrew Warrant assumed by ADC under Section 6.10(b), and (iv) the issuance of ADC Common Stock upon the conversion of Andrew Notes under Section 6.10(c).

At and after the Effective Time, the officers and directors of the Surviving Corporation will be authorized to execute and deliver, in the name and on behalf of Andrew, any deeds, bills of sale, assignments or assurances and to take any other actions and do any other things, in the name and on behalf of Andrew, reasonably necessary to vest, perfect or confirm of record or otherwise in the Surviving Corporation any and all right, title and interest in, to and under any of the rights, properties or assets of Andrew acquired or to be acquired by the Surviving Corporation as a result of, or in connection with, the Merger.

When a reference is made in this Agreement to an Article, Section or Exhibit, such reference shall be to an Article or Section of, or an Exhibit to, this Agreement unless otherwise indicated. Whenever the words “include,” “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.” The words “hereof,” “herein” and “hereunder” and words of similar import when used in this Agreement shall refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement. References to a “Person” shall include references to an individual, corporation, partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, association, trust, unincorporated organization or other entity. All terms defined in this Agreement shall have the defined meanings when used in any certificate or other document made or delivered pursuant hereto unless otherwise defined therein. The definitions contained in this Agreement are applicable to the singular as well as the plural forms of such terms and to the masculine as well as to the feminine and neuter genders of such term. Any agreement, instrument or statute defined or referred to herein or in any agreement or instrument that is referred to herein means such agreement, instrument or statute as from time to time amended, modified or supplemented, including (in the case of agreements or instruments) by waiver or consent and (in the case of statutes) by succession of comparable successor statutes and references to all attachments thereto and instruments incorporated therein. References to a Person are also to its permitted successors and assigns. All references to dollar amounts shall be to lawful currency of the United States.

9.4 Knowledge. References to the “Knowledge” of a party to this Agreement shall mean, (i) in the case of Andrew, the actual knowledge of the Persons listed in Section 9.4 of the Andrew Disclosure Letter after due inquiry, and (ii) in the case of ADC and Merger Sub, the actual knowledge of the Persons listed in Section 9.4 of the ADC Disclosure Letter after due inquiry.

9.5 Disclosure Letters. On or prior to the date of this Agreement, ADC has delivered to Andrew a disclosure letter (the “ADC Disclosure Letter”) and Andrew has delivered to ADC a disclosure letter (the “Andrew Disclosure Letter”). Each Disclosure Letter sets forth items of disclosure with specific reference to the particular Section or subsection of this Agreement to which the information in such Disclosure Letter relates; provided, however, that any information set forth in one section of a Disclosure Letter will be deemed to apply to each other Section or subsection of this Agreement to which its relevance is reasonably apparent; provided, further, that, notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the inclusion of an item in such section of the Disclosure Letter as an exception to a representation or warranty will not be deemed an admission that such item represents a material exception or material fact, event or circumstance or that such item has had or would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect on ADC or Andrew, as appropriate.

9.6 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the parties and delivered to the other parties.

9.7 Entire Agreement; No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement (including the CA and the documents and instruments referred to herein) (a) constitutes the entire agreement, and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement and (b) except for the provisions of Article II (which are intended to benefit the holders of Andrew Common Stock) and Section 6.4 (which are intended to benefit the Indemnified Parties, including Indemnified Parties who or which are not parties hereto), is not intended to confer upon any Person other than the parties any rights or remedies.

9.8 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, regardless of the laws that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflict of laws thereof.

9.9 Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement shall be assigned, in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise by either of the parties hereto without the prior written consent of the other party. Any assignment in violation of the preceding sentence shall be void. Subject to the preceding two sentences, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the parties and their respective successors and assigns.

9.10 Consent to Jurisdiction. Each of the parties hereto (a) consents to submit itself to the personal jurisdiction of any federal court located in the State of Delaware or any Delaware state court in the event any dispute arises out of this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (b) agrees that it will not attempt to deny or defeat such personal jurisdiction by motion or other request for leave from any such court, and (c) agrees that it will not bring any action relating to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in any court other than a federal court sitting in the State of Delaware or a Delaware state court.

9.11 Headings, etc. The headings and table of contents contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

9.12 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced by any rule of law or public policy, all other conditions and provisions of this Agreement shall nevertheless remain in full force and effect, insofar as the foregoing can be accomplished without materially affecting the economic benefits anticipated by the parties to this Agreement. Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law in an acceptable manner to the end that the transactions contemplated hereby are fulfilled to the extent possible.

9.13 Failure or Indulgence Not a Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay on the part of any party hereto in the exercise of any right hereunder shall impair such right or be construed to be a waiver of, or acquiescence in, any breach of any representation, warranty or agreement herein, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right preclude any other or further exercise thereof or of any other right. All rights and remedies existing under this Agreement are cumulative to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies otherwise available.

9.14 Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF ADC, MERGER SUB AND ANDREW HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HERBY OR THE ACTIONS OF ADC, MERGER SUB OR ANDREW IN THE NEGOTIATION, ADMINISTRATION, PERFORMANCE AND ENFORCEMENT OF THIS AGREEMENT.

9.15 Specific Performance. The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur and that the parties would not have any adequate remedy at law in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in any federal court located in the State of Delaware or in Delaware state court, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity.
