( Effective as of January 1, 2008)

      WHEREAS , Molex Incorporated, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), established the 2005 Molex Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (the “2005 SERP”);

      WHEREAS , prior to January 1, 2008 the 2005 SERP provided for both employee voluntary deferrals of salary and bonus, and employer contributions for purposes of restoring benefits under the Molex Incorporated Profit Sharing and Retirement Plan (the “Profit Sharing Plan”) as a result of limitations imposed under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), and the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”); and

      WHEREAS , the Company has determined that for ease in administration, it is in the Company’s best interest to (i) establish a separate plan that provides for employee voluntary deferrals of salary and bonus which will be called the Molex Executive Deferred Compensation Plan (the “Plan”), (ii) remove any voluntary deferral options from the 2005 SERP, and (iii) leave in the 2005 SERP solely those provisions that govern excess benefits pertaining to the Profit Sharing Plan.

ARTICLE 3. ELIGIBILITY AND PARTICIPATION

      3.1 Eligibility . To be eligible to participate in the Plan, a person must be among a select group of management or highly compensated employees of an Employer, and selected for participation by the Committee, such that the Plan qualifies for a “top hat” exemption from most of the substantive requirements of Title I of ERISA, as described in Section 1.2(c). Accordingly, the Committee may terminate the participation of any or all Participants in order to achieve and maintain this intended result; provided, however , such termination from participation shall not become effective until the first day of the next succeeding Plan Year.

      3.2 Notice of Eligibility . Generally, eligible employees shall be notified of their eligibility to participate prior to the beginning of each Plan Year in which they are eligible. Subject to the Code Section 409A aggregation rules as applicable, for the first year an employee is notified of eligibility under this Article 3, a deferral election on the relevant Deferral Form may be made within 30 days of the date the employee first becomes eligible under this Plan; provided, however , such elections shall be prospective and shall apply only to Salary and Bonus earned after such deferral election is made.

      3.3 Right to Participation or Employment . No employee shall have the right to be selected to participate in this Plan or, having been so selected, to be selected to participate in any future Plan Year. Further, nothing in the Plan shall interfere with or limit in any way the right of an Employer to terminate any Participant’s employment at any time, nor confer upon any Participant a right to continue in the employ of an Employer.

      3.4 Effect of Subsequent Ineligibility . In the event a Participant ceases to be eligible for continued participation in the Plan for any reason, such individual shall become an inactive Participant, retaining all the rights relating to previous Supplemental Company Contributions as

described under the Plan, until such time that such individual again is determined by the Committee to be an active Participant or until Separation from Service.

ARTICLE 4. DEFERRALS

      4.1 Salary Deferrals . A Participant may elect to defer receipt of all or any portion of his or her Salary for a given Plan Year by delivering a properly executed Deferral Form to the Company within the time specified in Section 4.3(a). The Deferral Form shall designate the amount or percentage of Salary that is to be deferred under the Plan for a given Plan Year. The Committee shall have the sole discretionary authority to establish the maximum amount of Salary Deferrals any particular Participant shall make to the Plan each Plan Year. The Deferral Form shall be irrevocable for a given Plan Year once effective.

The Deferral Form shall be completed and filed with the Company with respect to deferrals of Salary before the beginning of the Plan Year for which services are performed so long as the employee remains eligible to participate in the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing and subject to the aggregation rules under Code Section 409A, a newly-hired Participant or an employee who becomes a Participant due to promotion or other such change to employment status, shall be given thirty (30) days after the date he or she becomes eligible to participate in the Plan to complete and submit a Deferral Form. Each properly completed and timely submitted Deferral Form shall become effective as of the first day of the following Plan Year; provided that in the case of a newly-hired Participant, a properly completed and timely submitted Deferral Form shall become effective on the date provided to the Company.

     (ii) Distribution Elections . The Deferral Form filed by a Participant with respect to distribution of his/her Salary Deferrals for a given Plan Year shall clearly specify the time and form of payment from among the options provided for and approved by the Committee. In the event a Participant does not specify on his/her Deferral Form the time and form of payment relating to such Salary Deferrals, then such Participant shall be deemed to have elected the default form of distribution under Section 5.7(a) which is a lump-sum distribution, and shall be deemed to have not elected any In-Service Distribution under Section 5.2.

      (b) Bonus .

     (i) Deferral Elections . A Participant shall make an irrevocable election each Fiscal Year to defer any or all of his/her Bonus under the Plan for such Fiscal Year by delivering to the Company a properly executed Deferral Form. The Deferral Form shall be completed and filed with the Committee with respect to deferrals of Bonus before the beginning of the Fiscal Year for which services are performed so long as the employee remains eligible to participate in the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing and subject to the aggregation rules under Code Section 409A, a newly-hired Participant or an employee who becomes a Participant due to promotion or other such change to employment status, shall be given thirty (30) days after the date he or she becomes eligible to participate in the Plan to complete and submit a Deferral Form. Each properly completed and timely submitted Deferral Form shall become effective as of the first day of the next following Fiscal Year; provided that in the case of a newly-hired Participant, a properly completed and timely submitted Deferral Form shall become effective on the date provided to the Company. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that a Participant’s Bonus constitutes “performance based compensation” (within the meaning of Code Section 409A and regulations issued thereunder), the Participant’s Deferral Form with respect to the deferral of such performance-based Bonus may be delivered to the Plan Administrator no later than December 31 of the Fiscal Year in which the Bonus is earned.
