Dated: February 13, 2002 ADTRAN, Inc. By: /s/ Mark C. Smith ------------------------ Mark C. Smith Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer 5 EX-99.(A)(1)(B) 3 dex99a1b.txt FORM OF ELECTION FORM CONCERNING EXCHANGE OF STOCK Exhibit (a)(1)(B) not properly withdrawn will be exchanged for New Options, upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer, including the conditions described in Sections 1 and 6 of the Offer to Exchange. The term "Expiration Date" means 9:00 p.m., Central Standard Time, on February 26, 2002, unless and until the Company, in its discretion, has extended the period of time during which the Offer will remain open, in which event the term "Expiration Date" refers to the latest time and date at which the Offer, as so extended, expires. I have not received any options from the Company after July 23, 2001. I recognize that, under certain circumstances set forth in the Offer to Exchange, the Company may terminate or amend the Offer and postpone its acceptance and cancellation of any Eligible Options tendered for exchange. In any such event, I understand that the Eligible Options delivered herewith but not accepted for exchange will be returned to me at the address indicated below. THE OFFER IS NOT BEING MADE TO (NOR WILL TENDERS OF OPTIONS BE ACCEPTED FROM OR ON BEHALF OF) HOLDERS IN ANY JURISDICTION IN WHICH THE MAKING OR ACCEPTANCE OF THE OFFER WOULD NOT BE IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE LAWS OF SUCH JURISDICTION. All capitalized terms used in this Election Form but not defined shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Offer to Exchange. I agree to all of the terms and conditions of the Offer. HOLDER PLEASE SIGN HERE (See Instructions 1 and 4) You must complete and sign the following exactly as your name appears on the option agreement or agreements evidencing the Eligible Options you are tendering. If you are not signing in your individual capacity, please indicate on the line below your name whether you are signing as a trustee, executor, administrator, guardian, attorney-in-fact, officer of a corporation or another person acting in a fiduciary or representative capacity, along with the signer's full title, and include with this Election Form proper evidence of the authority of such person to act in such capacity.

Date: February 13, 2002 Re: IMPORTANT: Election Form for ADTRAN Stock Option Exchange Offer At the request of the Securities and Exchange Commission, we have made an amendment to the signature page to the Election Form sent to you on January 28, 2002 in connection with the stock option exchange program. We have attached to this email message a revised signature page to the Election Form. The only change on the signature page is in the sentence immediately preceding the words "HOLDER PLEASE SIGN HERE." The sentence previously read "I have read, understand and agree to all of the terms and conditions of the Offer." The sentence now reads as follows: "I agree to all of the terms and conditions of the Offer." If you have already delivered your Election Form to James Matthews pursuant to the requirements of the offer, you do not need to sign a new signature page. However, you may deliver a new signature page to Mr. Matthews if you wish. Regardless of whether or not you deliver a new signature page to the Election Form, the words "read" and "understand" in the sentence on the signature page will be deemed to be deleted from the sentence and will not be operative. We still urge you, however, to read carefully each of the documents delivered to you, and please do not hesitate to ask questions if you do not understand any of the terms and conditions of the offer. The SEC has also asked us to make a few other minor, non-material changes to the Offer to Exchange sent to you on January 28, 2002. We have attached the text of these amendments to this email. If you would like a paper copy of the new signature page to the Election Form or any of the other documents delivered to you in connection with the stock option exchange program, please contact Pat Gill at (256) 963-8220, email: pat.gill@adtran.com. - -------------------- -----END PRIVACY-ENHANCED MESSAGE-----
