<TABLE>
<S> <C>                                                       <C>
1.  Severance equal to the sum of your current annual base    $580,700
    salary and your 2004 actual bonus (payable monthly over
    a one-year period commencing on December 1, 2005).


2.  The last one-third of your cash award payable pursuant    Cash: $59,583
    to the Retention Agreement on July 15, 2006. (You are
    also entitled to the vesting of the last one third of     Shares: 2,907 plus
    your restricted stock award under that agreement.)        Accrued Dividends
</TABLE>

         You are entitled to your accrued and unpaid salary through the
Separation Date.

         You are entitled to all accrued, vested and unpaid benefits under all
retirement, pension, and deferred compensation plans of the Company in which you
are participating on the Separation Date. All such benefits shall be paid in
accordance with the terms of the applicable plans and, where applicable, your
previous elections. You are not eligible for retirement plan contributions with
respect to payments made under section 1 or 2 above.

         You are vested in all stock options that were granted to you prior to,
and were still outstanding at the time of, the merger of Belden Inc. and Cable

of the ninety-day period starting on December 1, 2005.

         Pursuant to your Letter Agreement, (i) one-third of your stock option
award, granted on March 30, 2005 (7,667) shall become exercisable pursuant to
its terms and remain exercisable for a period of ninety days after they become

from your amounts payable above, the amount of any withholding tax due with
respect to such amounts.

         You agree to promptly return to the Company all tangible and intangible
property of the Company, whether prepared by you or otherwise coming into your
possession, and whether written, electronic or in any other format, including,
without limitation, all files, records, documents, customer lists, software and

communication devices).

         Payment of the amounts and benefits set forth above will begin on the
effective date of the General Release of All Claims and the Non-Compete letter
that accompany this letter or, in the case of Company employee plan benefits,
such later date as may be provided in accordance with the applicable Company
benefit plan in which you are a participant. All amounts hereunder also are
conditioned upon your resignation from all offices of the Company and all
subsidiaries held by you.

         We ask that you sign this letter below confirming our understanding
above.

shall constitute an original for all purposes, and all of which taken together

                              Non-Compete Covenant


Mr. Richard K. Reece
21 Ballas Court
Town & Country, MO 63131

Dear Ricky:

     In consideration for Belden CDT Inc. (the "Company") granting you the right
to exercise receive the third payment under your retention and integration award
agreement, dated June 28, 2004 (as amended), the amount provided under your
letter agreement, dated April 15, 2002 (as amended), and other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt of which you acknowledge, you agree to the following:

     (a)  For the period of one year beginning on December 1, 2005 (the
          "Period"), you will not, directly or indirectly solicit, entice,
          persuade or induce any employee, director, or officer of the Company
          or its subsidiaries or affiliates (collectively, the "Group") to
          terminate his or her employment or engagement by the Group to become
          employed or engaged by any person, firm, corporation or other business
          enterprise other than a member of the Group;

     (b)  During the Period, you will not, directly or indirectly, engage,
          participate, make any financial investment in, or become employed by
          or render advisory or other services to or for any person, firm,
          corporation or other business enterprise (the "Competing Enterprise")
          which is engaged, directly or indirectly, during the Period, in
          competition with the Group in the development, design, manufacture,
          marketing or distribution of wire and cable or connectivity products
          in the United States and in any foreign jurisdiction in which the
          Group operates provided that the competitive businesses of the
          Competing Enterprise account for more than 10% of the net sales of the
          Competing Enterprise for its most recently completed fiscal year and
          you do not work or consult in such competitive business.

          The foregoing covenant shall not be construed to preclude you from
          making any investments in the securities of any company, whether or
          not engaged in competition with the Group, to the extent that such
          securities are actively traded on a national securities exchange or in
          the over-the-counter market in the United States or any foreign
          securities exchange and, after giving effect to such investment, you
          do not beneficially own securities representing more than 1% of the
          combined voting power of the voting securities of such company.

     (c)  During the Period, you will not divulge, furnish or make available to
          any person any knowledge or information with respect to the business
          or affairs of the Group which is confidential, including, without
          limitation, "know-how," trade secrets, customer and supplier lists,
          pricing policies, operational methods, marketing plans or strategies,
          product development techniques or plans, business acquisition or
          disposition plans, new personnel employment plans, methods of
          manufacture, technical processes, designs and design projects,
          inventions and research projects and financial budgets and forecasts
          of the Group except (1) information which at the time is available to
          others in the business or generally known to the public other than as
          a result of disclosure by you not permitted hereunder, and (2) when
          required to do so by a court of competent jurisdiction, by any
          governmental agency or by any administrative body or legislative body
          (including a committee thereof) with purported or apparent
          jurisdiction to order you to divulge, disclose or make accessible such
          information. All memoranda, notes, lists, records, electronically
          stored data, recordings or videotapes and other documents (and all
          copies thereof) made or compiled by you or made available to you
          concerning the business of the Group or any predecessor thereof shall
          be the property of the Company or such other member of the Group and
          shall be delivered to the Company or such other member of the Group
          promptly upon your retirement from the Company.

     (d)  You acknowledge that all developments, including, without limitation,
          inventions, patentable or otherwise, trade secrets, discoveries,
          improvements, ideas and writings that alone or jointly with others you
          may conceive, make, develop or acquire during your employment by the
          Group and any predecessor thereof (collectively, the "Developments"),
          are and shall remain the sole and exclusive property of the Group and
          you hereby assigns to the Group all of your right, title and interest
          in all such Developments. At any time upon request and at the expense
          of the Company, you shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the
          Group all instruments that the Group shall prepare, give evidence, and
          take all other actions that are necessary or desirable in the
          reasonable opinion of the Company's counsel, to enable the Group to
          file and prosecute applications for and to acquire, maintain and
          enforce all letters patent, trademark registrations or copyrights
          covering the Developments in all countries in which the same are
          deemed necessary.

     (e)  You acknowledge that the services you have rendered to the Group are
          of a special, unique and extraordinary character and, in connection
          with such services, you have had access to confidential information
          vital to the Group's business and that irreparable injury would be
          sustained by the Group in the event of his breach of any of the
          covenants contained in this



<PAGE>
Mr. Richard K. Reece
November 30, 2005
Page 3


          section (e) which injury could not be remedied adequately by the
          recovery of damages in an action at law. Accordingly, you agree that,
          upon a breach or threatened breach by you of any of such covenants,
          the Company and, to the extent appropriate, any other member of the
          Group shall be entitled, in addition to and not in lieu of any and all
          other remedies, to an injunction to be issued by any court of
          competent jurisdiction restraining the commission or continuance of
          any such breach or threatened breach upon minimal bond, with or
          without surety, and that such an injunction will not work an undue
          hardship on you.

     (f)  If any court determines that any of the provisions of these covenants
          are invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of such provisions shall
          not thereby be affected and shall be given full effect without regard
          to the invalid provisions. If any court construes any of the
          provisions of these covenants, or any part thereof, to be unreasonable
          because of the duration of such provision or the geographic scope
          thereof, such court shall have the power to reduce the duration or
          restrict the geographic scope of such provision and to enforce such
          provision as so reduced or restricted.

     Ricky, please acknowledge your agreement with the terms of this letter by
returning a signed copy to me.

Very truly yours,

                          GENERAL RELEASE OF ALL CLAIMS

     1. Release by Executive ("Executive Release"). (a) In consideration of the
amount payable under the Separation Agreement ("Separation Agreement") between
Belden CDT Inc. (the "Company") and the undersigned, Richard K. Reece
("Executive") and other good and valuable consideration, Executive, on his own
behalf and on behalf of his heirs, executors, administrators, successors,
representatives and assigns, does herein unconditionally release, waive, and
fully discharge Company and its subsidiaries (including successors and assigns
thereof) and all of their respective past, present and future employees,
officers, directors, agents, affiliates, parents, predecessors, administrators,
representatives, attorneys, and shareholders, and employee benefit plans (all of
the above collectively, the "Executive Releasees"), from any and all legal
claims, liabilities, suits, causes of action (whether before a court or an
administrative agency), damages, costs, attorneys' fees, interest, injuries,
expenses, debts, or demands of any nature whatsoever, known or unknown,
liquidated or unliquidated, absolute or contingent, at law or in equity, which
were or could have been filed with any Federal, state, or local court, agency,
arbitrator or any other entity, based directly or indirectly on Executive's
employment with and separation from the Company or based on any other alleged
act or omission by or on behalf of the Company prior to Executive's signing this
Executive Release. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing terms, the
foregoing waiver and release specifically includes all claims based on the
terms, conditions, and privileges of employment, and those based on breach of
contract (express or implied), tort, harassment, intentional infliction of
emotional distress, defamation, negligence, privacy, employment discrimination,
retaliation, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, as amended ("ADEA"),
Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended, the National Labor
Relations Act, the Fair Labor Standards Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act
of 1990, the Family Medical Leave Act, Employee Retirement Income Security Act
of 1974, the Missouri Human Rights Act (R.S. MO Section 213.010 et seq.), as
amended, any federal, state or local fair employment, human rights wage and hour
laws and wage payment laws, and any and all other Federal, state, local or other
governmental statutes, laws, ordinances, regulations and orders, under common
law, and under any Company policy, procedure, bylaw or rule.

          (b) Executive intends this Executive Release to be binding on his
successors, and Executive specifically agrees not to file or continue any claim
in respect of matters covered by the immediately preceding paragraph hereof.
Executive further agrees never to institute any suit, complaint, proceeding,
grievance or action of any kind at law, in equity, or otherwise in any court of
the United States or in any state, or in any administrative agency of the United
States or any state, county or municipality, or before any other tribunal,
public or private, against the Company arising from or relating to his
employment with or his termination of employment from the Company or any other
occurrences to the date of this Executive Release, other than a claim
challenging the validity of this Executive Release under ADEA. Executive may
bring a claim under ADEA to challenge the release under this Executive Release.
Nothing in this Executive Release is intended to reflect any party's belief that
Executive's waiver of claims under ADEA is invalid or unenforceable, it being
the interest of the parties that such claims are waived.

          (c) The foregoing provisions of this Executive Release to the contrary
notwithstanding, the waiver and release hereunder shall not waive or release any
rights or claims:

               (i) that Executive may have that arise after the date hereof and
     shall not waive post-termination health-continuation insurance benefits
     required by state or Federal law;

               (ii) that Executive may have under the Separation Agreement;



<PAGE>


               (iii) any claim of indemnification under the Indemnification
