(b)                                 Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Option to Purchase shall become exercisable as to any additional shares of Common Stock following the termination of employment of the Optionee for any reason other than a termination of employment because of the death or Permanent Disability or Retirement of the Optionee, and any Option to Purchase (other than as provided in the next succeeding sentence) which is non-exercisable as of the Optionee’s termination of employment shall be immediately cancelled. In the event of a termination of employment because of death or Permanent Disability of the Optionee and provided that the Optionee has been employed for at least three years, the Option to Purchase awarded hereunder shall become immediately exercisable. If the Optionee has not been employed for at least three years, then the Option to Purchase shall not become exercisable for any additional shares of Common Stock. In the event of a termination of employment because of Retirement of the Optionee, the Option to Purchase the Committee in its sole and absolute discretion shall have the authority to decide if any Option to Purchase that is not exercisable as of the date of Retirement

5

shall continue to vest and be exercisable as though the Optionee’s employment had not been terminated.

Section 3.2—“Grant Expiration Date”

The Option to Purchase may not be exercised to any extent by the Optionee after the first to occur of the following events:

(a)                                  The tenth anniversary of the Grant Date; or

(c)                                  The eighth anniversary of the Trigger Date in the event of the Optionee’s termination of employment by reason of Retirement.

(d)                                 90 days after termination of employment of the Optionee for any reason other than for death or Permanent Disability or Retirement. For these purposes, termination of employment shall mean the date on which the Optionee ceases working for the Company or a Subsidiary of the Company or such later day as the Committee in their discretion deems to be appropriate; or

ARTICLE IV

EXERCISE OF OPTION TO PURCHASE

Section 4.1—Person Eligible to Exercise

Except as provided in the Management Stockholder’s Agreement, during the lifetime of the Optionee, only he or his personal legal representative may exercise an Option to Purchase or any portion thereof. After the death of the Optionee, any previously exercised portion of an Option to Purchase may, prior to the time when an Option to Purchase becomes unexercisable under Section 3.2, be exercised by any person empowered to do so under the Optionee’s will or under the then applicable laws of descent and distribution.

Section 4.2—Partial Exercise

Any exercisable portion of an Option to Purchase or the entire Option to Purchase, if then wholly exercisable, may be exercised in whole or in part at any time prior to the time when the

6

Option to Purchase or portion thereof becomes unexercisable under Section 3.2; provided, however, that any partial exercise shall be for whole shares of Common Stock only.

Section 4.3—Manner of Exercise

An Option to Purchase, or any exercisable portion thereof, may be exercised by a Management Stockholder who is not an executive officer of the Company in the manner described in the Section titled “Exercising Your Stock Options” appearing in “A Guide to the Amphenol Corporation Stock Option Plan” appearing on the Company’s Client Home Page available through www.benefitaccess.com. An executive officer of the Company will require the assistance of the Executive Chairman, the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer or the General Counsel of the Company and personal assistance from Smith Barney, as the administrator of the Plan, to exercise any Option to Purchase, or any exercisable portion thereof.

The Optionee may be asked to provide a bona fide written representation and agreement, in a form satisfactory to the Committee, signed by the Optionee or other person then entitled to exercise such Option or portion thereof, stating that the shares of stock are being acquired for his own account, for investment and without any present intention of distributing or reselling said shares or any of them except as may be permitted under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), and then applicable rules and regulations thereunder, and that the Optionee or other person then entitled to exercise such Option or portion thereof will indemnify the Company against and hold it free and harmless from any loss, damage, expense or liability resulting to the Company if any sale or distribution of the shares by such person is contrary to the representation and agreement referred to above; provided, however, that the Committee may, in its absolute discretion, take whatever additional actions it deems appropriate to ensure the observance and performance of such representation and agreement and to effect compliance with the Act and any other federal or state securities laws or regulations; and

In the event the Option to Purchase or any portion thereof shall be exercised pursuant to Section 4.1 by any person or persons other than the Optionee, the Committee may require appropriate proof of the right of such person or persons to exercise the Option to Purchase.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Committee may require an opinion of counsel acceptable to it to the effect that any subsequent transfer of shares acquired on exercise of an Option to Purchase does not violate the Act, and may issue stop-transfer orders covering such shares. Share certificates evidencing stock issued on exercise of an Option to Purchase shall bear an appropriate legend referring to the provisions of the second paragraph above and the agreements herein. The written representation and agreement referred to in the second paragraph above shall, however, not be required if the shares to be issued pursuant to such exercise have been registered under the Act, and such registration is then effective in respect of such shares.

Section 4.4—Conditions to Issuance of Stock Certificates

The shares of stock deliverable upon the exercise of an Option to Purchase, or any portion thereof, shall be previously authorized but unissued shares of the Company. Such shares shall be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. The Company shall not be required to issue

7

or deliver any certificate or certificates for shares of stock purchased upon the exercise of an Option to Purchase or portion thereof prior to fulfillment of all of the following conditions:

(a)                                  The obtaining of approval or other clearance from any state or federal governmental agency which the Committee shall, in its absolute discretion, determine to be necessary or advisable; and

(b)                                 The lapse of such reasonable period of time following the exercise of the Option to Purchase as the Committee may from time to time establish for reasons of administrative convenience. Absent such a determination by the Committee, 20 business days shall be deemed to be a reasonable period of time.

Section 4.5—Rights as Stockholder

The holder of an Option shall not be, nor have any of the rights or privileges of, a stockholder of the Company in respect of any shares purchasable upon the exercise of the Option or any portion thereof unless and until certificates representing such shares shall have been issued by the Company to such holder.
