CommScope and Andrew Transition News

November 8, 2007

Welcome to the sixth edition of CommScope and Andrew Transition News, our vehicle for communicating with everyone about the progress of bringing together our two strong companies.

Key Developments

o Andrew shareholder meeting, proxy mailing set

o High-level planning by transition teams

o Andrew brand

Andrew shareholder meeting and proxy mailing set

The US Securities and Exchange Commission has declared effective CommScope’s registration statement on Form S-4, including the prospectus and Andrew’s proxy statement. As a result, Andrew will mail on November 9 the proxy statement/prospectus to its shareholders of record as of November 1 with instructions and information necessary to vote on the proposed merger. The special meeting of Andrew shareholders for consideration of the merger is scheduled for December 10 in Rosemont, Ill. Complete details are included in the proxy statement/prospectus.

The merger can close within 10 business days after all conditions to closing have been satisfied, including receipt of shareholder approval and clearance from the US Department of Justice, the European Commission and the South African Competition Commission. Both companies continue to work with these three remaining jurisdictions. We are confident that the transaction should be approved and closed in late December.

Transition Teams

The transition teams have begun the detailed planning phase of our efforts to combine the two companies. This next major phase follows completion of the teams’ development of high level plans, which set each functional area’s broad structure and direction. High level plans for each of the more than 50 transition teams were approved after being presented to the executive steering committee in face-to-face meetings in October at CommScope headquarters in Hickory, NC.

The teams now are focusing on key tactics and major actions that must be undertaken after closing of the transaction to integrate our companies. The detailed planning phase will be completed by the time of closing.

Andrew Brand

CommScope intends to retain and build upon the widely recognized Andrew brand because of its value in the wireless marketplace. Upon close of the transaction, the existing Andrew business will become the wireless unit of CommScope, named Andrew Wireless Solutions. While no changes will be made to CommScope’s other brands, the well-known Andrew “flash” will be used as the logo for CommScope’s wireless business. The two logo variations are shown below. The logo on the left will be used as a stand-alone, while the logo on the right will be used on materials that also contain the CommScope logo.

Employee Frequently Asked Questions

Have a question about the proposed combination of our two companies? We will attempt to answer relevant questions in each issue of Transition News. Employees can submit transition questions to: communications@andrew.com

Additionally, we encourage you to discuss issues and concerns with your manager or Human Resources contact, as we may not be able to answer all questions in upcoming news updates.

Forward-Looking Statements

This document may contain forward-looking statements regarding, among other things, the proposed business combination between CommScope and Andrew and the anticipated consequences and benefits of such transaction, and other financial and operational items relating to CommScope and Andrew. Statements made in the future tense, and statements using words such as “intend,” “goal,” “estimate,” “expect,” “expectations,” “project,” “projections,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “believe,” “think,” “confident” and “scheduled” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are not a guarantee of performance and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, many of which are difficult to predict and are beyond the control of CommScope or Andrew. These risks and uncertainties could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in or implied by the forward-looking statements, and therefore should be carefully considered. Relevant risks and uncertainties relating to the proposed transaction include, but are not limited to: the risk that required regulatory review and approval may not be obtained in a timely manner, if at all; Andrew’s stockholders may not approve the proposed transaction; the anticipated benefits and synergies of the proposed transaction may not be realized; the integration of Andrew’s operations with CommScope could be materially delayed or may be more costly or difficult than expected; the proposed transaction may not be consummated; legal proceedings may be commenced by or against CommScope or

Andrew. For a more complete description of factors that could cause such a difference, as well as risk and uncertainties generally applicable to CommScope and Andrew, please see CommScope’s filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), which are available on CommScope’s website or at www.sec.gov, and Andrew’s filings with the SEC, which are available on Andrew’s website or at www.sec.gov. In providing forward-looking statements, neither CommScope nor Andrew intends, and neither undertakes any duty or obligation, to update these statements as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

Additional Information
