Molex Incorporated (File No. 000-07491)
Form 8-K
Filed August 5, 2008

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This letter sets forth the responses of Molex Incorporated to the comments on the above-referenced filing provided by the Staff of the Division of Corporation Finance of the Securities and Exchange Commission by letter dated October 21, 2008. The Staff’s comments are restated below in bold, italicized type, and are followed by our responses.

Staff Comment: We note you present your non-GAAP measures and reconciliation in the form of adjusted statement of income. This format may be confusing to investors as it also reflects several non-GAAP measures, including non-GAAP income before income taxes, non-GAAP income taxes, and non-GAAP basic net income per share, which have not been described to investors. In fact, it appears that management does not use these non-GAAP measures but they are shown here as a result of the presentation format. Please note that Instruction 2 to Item 2.02 of Form 8-K requires that when furnishing information under this item you must provide all the disclosures required by paragraph (e)(1)(i) of Item 10 of Regulation S-K, including an explanation why you believe the measures provide useful information to investors.

Company Response: We have no intention of presenting non-GAAP measures and reconciliations in the form of an adjusted statement of income in future earnings releases. In addition, to the extent that we present non-GAAP measures in any form, we will ensure that such measures are those measures used by management, are appropriately described and that all required and related disclosures are also included.
