ADC FOUNDATION DONATES $100,000 TO AMERICAN RED CROSS TO EXTEND ITS SUPPORT OF SOUTHWEST CHINA EARTHQUAKE RELIEF

New Gift and Employee Contribution Matching Program Bring Company's Total Support to More than $150,000

ADC (NASDAQ: ADCT)(www.adc.com), today announced that the ADC Foundation, the corporate philanthropy organization of ADC Telecommunications, Inc., is donating an additional $100,000 to the American Red Cross International Response Fund to support the recovery from the recent earthquake in the Southwestern Chinese province of Sichuan. This donation follows the ADC Foundation's initial $10,000 contribution to the Red Cross that was made after the initial quake struck the region on May 12.

In addition to the direct gifts to the Red Cross, the ADC Foundation has also established a company-wide employee matching gift effort for donations that benefit disaster relief nonprofits aiding in the earthquake response. The ADC Foundation is matching more than $25,000 in employee donations in China and from around the world, with those matched funds being directed to various organizations, including the Red Cross. Furthermore, ADC employees in China recently coordinated a food and clothing drive among the several ADC sites in China, and have offered engineering assistance for the Sichuan region's damaged communications networks.

In recognition of the generous response by ADC employees and the significant humanitarian aid needs, the foundation's board of directors approved the additional $100,000 (USD) contribution to the Red Cross to further aid local relief efforts in the Sichuan Provence and adjacent areas. To date, the ADC Foundation, the company and its employees have donated more than $150,000 to various charities to assist in recovery efforts for the catastrophe.

"The tragic impact on the people affected by the recent earthquake in China cannot be overstated," said Robert E. Switz, president and CEO for ADC. "With a desire to make a real difference in the relief and recovery effort, we are proud to build upon our employees' generous donations of time and money with these foundation contributions to the Red Cross and the employee matching gift program."

The American Red Cross International Response Fund provides immediate relief and long-term support through supplies, technical assistance and other support to help those in need. The ADC Foundation's donations to the Fund will be directed to the Red Cross Society of China to support its ongoing humanitarian assistance to the China earthquake victims.

ADC employs nearly 11,000 individuals worldwide, including more than 1,400 in China. The company has operations across China under the ADC, and Century Man Communication, and LGC names.
