forth.

(the "Company"). The Plan generally is intended to provide benefits to covered
employees in the event of a "Change of Control" of the Company (as defined
herein) and is not intended to constitute an "employee pension benefit plan"
within the meaning of Section (3)(2) of the Employee Retirement Income Security
Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA"). Benefits, if payable under the Plan,
generally will be payable prior to termination of employment.

1.3      "Beneficiary Designation Form" shall mean the form established from
         time to time by the Committee that a Participant completes, signs and
         returns to the Committee to designate one or more Beneficiaries.

1.5      "Change in Control" shall mean the occurrence of any of the following
         with respect to the Company:

                  consolidation or (ii) a merger or consolidation effected to
                  implement a recapitalization of the Company (or similar

                           the date six months following the Change in Control.

         (b)      A Participant receiving payments or other partial

                  his or her Vesting Date described in Section 3.1(a) hereof
                  shall forfeit a portion of his or her Change in Control
                  Benefit which bears the same proportion to all of such benefit
                  as the payment or partial distribution bears to his or her
                  total interest in the Supplemental Retirement Plans.

3.3      ACCOUNT BALANCE. Each year, as soon as administratively practicable,
         each Participant shall receive a statement setting forth the balance of

         Year.

                  Participant's Account as of the date of the event described in

         hereunder, in amounts to be determined in the sole discretion of the
         Participant's Employer.

                                   BENEFICIARY
                                   -----------

5.1      BENEFICIARY. Each Participant shall have the right, at any time, to
         designate his or her Beneficiary (both primary as well as contingent)
         to receive any benefits payable under the Plan to a Beneficiary upon
         the death of a Participant.

5.2      BENEFICIARY DESIGNATION; CHANGE; SPOUSAL CONSENT. A Participant shall
         designate his or her Beneficiary by completing and signing the
         Beneficiary Designation Form, and returning it to the Committee or its
         designated agent. A Participant shall have the right to change a
         Beneficiary by completing, signing and otherwise complying with the
         terms of the Beneficiary Designation Form and the Committee's rules and
         procedures, as in effect from time to time. If the Participant names
         someone other than his or her spouse as a Beneficiary, a spousal
         consent, in the form designated by the Committee, must be signed by
         that Participant's spouse and returned to the Committee. Upon the
         acceptance by the Committee of a new Beneficiary Designation Form, all
         Beneficiary designations previously filed shall be canceled. The
         Committee shall be entitled to rely on the last Beneficiary Designation
         Form filed by the Participant and accepted by the Committee before his
         or her death.

5.3      ACKNOWLEDGMENT. No designation or change in designation of a
         Beneficiary shall be effective until received, accepted and
         acknowledged in writing by the Committee or its designated agent.

5.4      NO BENEFICIARY DESIGNATION. If a Participant fails to designate a
         Beneficiary as provided in Sections 5.1, 5.2 and 5.3 above, or if all
         designated Beneficiaries predecease the Participant or die prior to
         complete distribution of the Participant's benefits, then the
         Participant's designated Beneficiary shall be deemed to be his or her
         surviving spouse. If the Participant has no surviving spouse, the
         benefits remaining under the Plan to be paid to a Beneficiary shall be
         payable to the executor or personal representative of the Participant's
         estate.

5.5      DOUBT AS TO BENEFICIARY. If the Committee has any doubt as to the
         proper Beneficiary to receive payments pursuant to this Plan, the
         Committee shall have the right, exercisable in its discretion, before a
         Change in Control, to cause the Trustee to withhold such payments until
         this matter is resolved to the Committee's satisfaction.

5.6      DISCHARGE OF OBLIGATIONS. The payment of benefits under the Plan to a
         Beneficiary shall fully and completely discharge all Employers and the
         Committee from all further obligations under this Plan with respect to
         the Participant, and that Participant's Plan Agreement shall terminate
         upon such full payment of benefits.

6.1      TERMINATION, AMENDMENT OR MODIFICATION PRIOR TO ONE YEAR BEFORE CHANGE
         IN CONTROL. Subject to Section 6.2, each Employer reserves the right to
         terminate, amend or modify the Plan or any related Plan Agreement, in
         whole or in part, with respect to Participants whose services are
         retained by that Employer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no
         termination, amendment or modification shall be effective to decrease
         or reduce a Participant's potential benefits under this Plan below the
         amount allocated to the Participant's Account as of the effective date
         of the termination, amendment or modification.

6.2      TERMINATION, AMENDMENT OR MODIFICATION WITHIN ONE YEAR BEFORE CHANGE IN
         CONTROL OR FOLLOWING CHANGE IN CONTROL. Within one year before a Change
         in Control and thereafter, neither the Company, any subsidiary of the
         Company nor any corporation, trust or other person that succeeds to all
         or any substantial portion of the assets of the Company shall have the
         right to terminate, amend or modify the Plan and/or any Plan Agreement
         in effect prior to such Change in Control, and all benefits under the
         Plan and any such Plan Agreement shall thereafter be paid in accordance
         with the terms of the Plan and such Plan Agreement, as in effect
         immediately prior to such Change in Control. If the Plan is terminated,
         amended, or modified within one year before a Change in Control, such
         termination, amendment or modification shall be considered void as of
         the date of the termination, amendment or modification. Any provision
         of this Plan or any Plan Agreement to the contrary shall be construed
         in accordance with this Section 6.2.

6.3      TERMINATION OF PLAN AGREEMENT. Absent the earlier termination,
         modification or amendment of the Plan, or a Participant's Forfeiture of
         his or her benefits under this Plan, the Plan Agreement of any
         Participant shall terminate upon the full payment of the applicable
         benefit provided under Article 4.

                          -----------------------------

7.1      COORDINATION WITH OTHER BENEFITS. The benefits provided for a
         Participant and Participant's Beneficiary under the Plan are in
         addition to any other benefits available to such Participant under any
         other plan or program for employees. The Plan shall supplement and
         shall not supersede, modify or amend any other such plan or program
         except as may otherwise be expressly provided.

                                    ---------

8.1      ESTABLISHMENT OF THE TRUST; PREMIUMS. The Company shall establish the
         Trust and the Employers shall, at least annually, transfer over to the
         Trust such assets, if any, as the Company determines, in its sole
         discretion, to contribute or cause to be contributed


                                       8
<PAGE>   12

         to the Trust prior to a Change in Control. The Committee may direct,
         prior to a Change in Control, payment of any and all Policy premiums
         and other costs relating to insurance policies owned by the Trust. In
         addition, if the Trust incurs any tax liability, the Employers shall
         contribute to the Trust sufficient funds to allow the Trustee to pay
         any such tax liability.

8.2      INTERRELATIONSHIP OF THE PLAN AND THE TRUST. The provisions of the Plan
         and each Plan Agreement shall govern the rights of a Participant to
         receive distributions pursuant to the Plan. The provisions of the Trust
         shall govern the rights of the Trustee, Participant and a Participant's
         Beneficiary as to the assets of the Trust. The Employers shall at all
         times remain liable to carry out their obligations under the Plan. The
         Employers and the Trustee shall cooperate with each other as is
         necessary to minimize the Trust's tax liability.

8.3      ACCOUNTS.
         --------

         (a)      The Trustee shall establish and maintain the following
                  separate accounts:

                  (i)      A "Participant's Account" for each Participant (A) to
                           which the Employers' contributions, or a portion
                           thereof, may be allocated and held, and (B) to which
                           earnings on amounts allocated pursuant to (A) shall
                           be allocated, the assets of which are to be used to
                           pay the Change in Control Benefit or the Employer
                           Benefit in accordance with the Plan and Trust;

                  (ii)     An "Administrative Account" for the administrative
                           expenses of the Trust to which a portion of the
                           Employers' contributions and earnings thereon may be
                           allocated and held, the assets of which are to be
                           used to pay the administrative expenses, including
                           all taxes, of the Trust in accordance with the terms
                           and provisions of this Plan and the Trust that are
                           not paid directly by the Employers; and

                  (iii)    A "Reserve Account" to which shall be allocated all
                           gains described in this subsection. In the event of
                           the death of a Participant or former Participant
                           whose life is insured by a Policy, the excess of (a)
                           the life insurance proceeds received from such Policy
                           over (b) the cash value of such Policy as of the date
                           immediately preceding the Participant's death shall
                           constitute a gain allocable to the Reserve Account.
                           Any such gain allocated to the Reserve Account shall
                           be distributed as an Employer Benefit pursuant to
                           Section 4.2(b).

         (b)      Prior to a Change in Control, the Committee shall, in its sole
                  discretion, direct the Trustee in writing as to the allocation
                  of (i) the Employers' contributions to the Participant's
                  Accounts and the Administrative Account, (ii) the earnings on
                  the amounts held in the Participant's Accounts and the
                  Administrative Account, and (iii) the gains allocated to the
                  Reserve Account in accordance with Section 8.3(a)(iii). After
                  a Change in Control, the Trustee shall make such allocations
                  in accordance with the terms of the Plan and the Trust.
                  Notwithstanding the foregoing, and except for a payment of
                  benefits in accordance with Article 4 or a

                  Forfeiture of benefits, a Participant's Account balance shall
                  not be reduced. Allocations of earnings shall be made as of
                  such date (at least annually) as is specified by the Committee
                  or the Trustee, but shall not be required to be made more
                  frequently than annually.

         (c)      All allocations shall be made in such manner so that the
                  accounts hereunder shall qualify for and be treated as a
                  separate share under Code Section 663(c).

         sole and absolute owner and beneficiary of each Policy, with all rights
         of an owner and beneficiary, including without limitation, the right to
         surrender Policies for their cash surrender values and to take one or
         more loans against one or more Policies. Notwithstanding the foregoing,

         accordance with the terms of this Plan, the respective Plan Agreements
         and the Trust.

         a "Claimant") may deliver to the Committee a written claim for a
         determination with respect to the amounts distributable to such

         after such notice was received by the Claimant. All other claims must
         be made within 180 days of the date on which the event that caused the
         claim to arise occurred. The claim must state with particularity the

                           information necessary for the Claimant to perfect the
                           claim, and an explanation of why such material or
                           information is necessary; and

                  (iv)     an explanation of the claim review procedure set
                           forth in Section 11.3 below.

11.3     REVIEW OF A DENIED CLAIM. Within 60 days after receiving a notice from
         the Committee that a claim has been denied, in whole or in part, a
         Claimant (or the Claimant's duly authorized representative) may file
         with the Committee a written request for a review of the denial of the
         claim. Thereafter, but not later than 30 days after the review
         procedure began, the Claimant (or the Claimant's duly authorized
         representative):

         (a)      may review pertinent documents;

         (b)      may submit written comments or other documents; and/or

         (c)      may request a hearing, which the Committee, in its sole
                  discretion, may grant.

11.4     DECISION ON REVIEW. The Committee shall render its decision on review
         promptly, and not later than 60 days after the filing of a written
         request for review of the denial, unless a hearing is held or other
         special circumstances require additional time, in which case the
         Committee's decision must be rendered within 120 days after such date.
         Such decision must be written in a manner calculated to be understood
         by the Claimant, and it must contain:

         (a)      specific reasons for the decision;

         (b)      specific reference(s) to the pertinent Plan provisions upon
                  which the decision was based; and

         (c)      such other matters as the Committee deems relevant.

11.5     LEGAL ACTION. A Claimant's compliance with the foregoing provisions of
         this Article 11 is a mandatory prerequisite to a Claimant's right to
         commence any legal action with respect to any claim for benefits under
         this Plan.


                                   ARTICLE 12
                                  MISCELLANEOUS
                                  -------------

12.1     UNSECURED GENERAL CREDITOR. Participants and their Beneficiaries,
         heirs, successors and assigns shall have no legal or equitable rights,
         interest or claims in any property or assets of an Employer. Any and
         all of an Employer's assets shall be, and remain, the general,
         unpledged and unrestricted assets of the Employer. An Employer's
         obligation under the Plan shall be merely that of an unfunded and
         unsecured promise to pay money in the future.

12.2     EMPLOYER'S LIABILITY. An Employer's liability for the payment of
         benefits shall be defined only by the Plan and the Plan Agreement, as
         entered into between the Employer

                                       12
<PAGE>   16

           and a Participant. An Employer shall have no obligation to a
           Participant under the Plan except as expressly provided in the Plan
           and his or her Plan Agreement.

12.3       NONASSIGNABILITY. Neither a Participant nor any other person shall
           have any right to commute, sell, assign, transfer, pledge,
           anticipate, mortgage or otherwise encumber, transfer, hypothecate or
           convey in advance of actual receipt, the amounts, if any, payable
           hereunder, or any part thereof, which are, and all rights to which
           are expressly declared to be unassignable and non-transferable. No
           part of the amounts payable shall, prior to actual payment, be
           subject to seizure or sequestration for the payment of any debts,
           judgments, alimony or separate maintenance owed by a Participant or
           any other person, nor be transferable by operation of law in the
           event of a Participant's or any other person's bankruptcy or
           insolvency or be transferable to a spouse as a result of a property
           settlement or otherwise.

12.4       NOT A CONTRACT OF EMPLOYMENT. The terms and conditions of this Plan
           shall not be deemed to constitute a contract of employment between
           any Employer and the Participant. Such employment is hereby
           acknowledged to be an "at will" employment relationship that can be
           terminated at any time for any reason, with or without cause, unless
           expressly provided in a written employment agreement. Nothing in this
           Plan shall be deemed to give a Participant the right to be employed
           in the service of any Employer, or to interfere with the right of any
           Employer to discipline or discharge the Participant at any time.

12.5       FURNISHING INFORMATION. A Participant will cooperate with the
           Committee by furnishing any and all information requested by the
           Committee and take such other actions as may be requested in order to
           facilitate the administration of the Plan and the payments of
           benefits hereunder, including but not limited to taking such physical
           examinations as the Committee may deem necessary.

12.6       TERMS. Whenever any words are used herein in the singular or in the
           plural, they shall be construed as though they were used in the
           plural or the singular, as the case may be, in all cases where they
           would so apply.

12.7       CAPTIONS. The captions of the articles, sections and paragraphs of
           this Plan are for convenience only and shall not control or affect
           the meaning or construction of any of its provisions.

12.8       GOVERNING LAW. The provisions of this Plan shall be construed and
           interpreted according to the laws of the State of Ohio.

12.9       VALIDITY. In case any provision of this Plan shall be illegal,
           invalid or ineffective for any reason, said illegality, invalidity or
           ineffectiveness shall not affect the remaining parts hereof, but this
           Plan shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid
           and/or ineffective provision had never been inserted herein.

12.10      NOTICE. Any notice or filing required or permitted to be given to the
           Committee under this Plan shall be sufficient if in writing and
           hand-delivered, or sent by registered or certified mail or recognized
           overnight courier, to the address below:

                    Allen Telecom Inc.
                    25101 Chagrin Boulevard
                    Beachwood, OH  44122-5169
                    Attention:  General Counsel


           Such notice shall be deemed given as of the date of delivery or, if
           delivery is made by mail, as of the date shown on the postmark on the
           receipt for registration or certification.

           Any notice or filing required or permitted to be given to a
           Participant under this Plan shall be sufficient if in writing and
           hand-delivered, or sent by mail, to the last known address of the
           Participant.

12.11      SUCCESSORS. The provisions of this Plan shall bind and inure to the
           benefit of the Participant's Employer and its successors and assigns
           and the Participant, the Participant's Beneficiaries, and their
           permitted successors and assigns.

12.12      SPOUSE'S INTEREST. The interest in the benefits hereunder of a spouse
           of a Participant who has predeceased the Participant shall
           automatically pass to the Participant and shall not be transferable
           by such spouse in any manner, including but not limited to such
           spouse's will, nor shall such interest pass under the laws of
           intestate succession.

12.13      INCOMPETENT. If the Committee determines in its discretion that a
           benefit under this Plan is to be paid to a minor, a person declared
           incompetent or to a person incapable of handling the disposition of
           that person's property, the Committee may direct payment of such
           benefit to the guardian, legal representative or person having the
           care and custody of such minor, incompetent or incapable person. The
           Committee may require proof of minority, incompetency, incapacity or
           guardianship, as it may deem appropriate prior to distribution of the
           benefit. Any payment of a benefit shall be a payment for the account
           of the Participant and the Participant's Beneficiary, as the case may
           be, and shall be a complete discharge of any liability under the Plan
           for such payment amount.

12.14      DISTRIBUTION IN THE EVENT OF TAXATION. If, for any reason, all or any
           portion of a Participant's benefit under this Plan becomes taxable to
           the Participant prior to the Vesting Date, a Participant may petition
           the Committee, if prior to a Change in Control, or the Trustee, after
           a Change in Control, for a distribution of assets sufficient to meet
           the Participant's tax liability (including additions to tax,
           penalties and interest). Upon the grant of such a petition, which
           grant shall not be unreasonably withheld, the Trustee shall
           distribute to the Participant from the Trust immediately available
           funds in an amount equal to that Participant's federal, state and
           local tax liability associated with such taxation, which liability
           shall be measured by using that Participant's then current highest
           federal, state and local marginal tax rate, plus the rates or amounts
           for the applicable additions to tax, penalties and interest. If the
           petition is granted, the tax liability distribution shall be made
           within 90 days of the date when the Participant's petition is
           granted.
