EXPLANATORY NOTE
We are filing this Registration Statement in order to register 125,000 shares of our common stock under the 2012 Restricted Stock Plan for Directors of Amphenol Corporation (the "Plan").  The Registration Statement relates to two separate prospectuses.  The first prospectus includes Items 1 and 2 from this page and the documents incorporated by reference pursuant to Part II, Item 3 of this Registration Statement.  The second prospectus includes the material that follows Item 2, up to but not including Part II of this Registration Statement, and is a reoffer prospectus prepared in accordance with Part I of Form S-3 (in accordance with Instruction C of the General Instructions to Form S-8) which covers reoffers and resales of shares of common stock issued pursuant to the Plan.  Pursuant to Instruction C of Form S-8, the reoffer prospectus may be used for reoffers or resales of shares of common stock which may be deemed to be "restricted securities" or "control securities" under the Securities Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder that have been acquired by the selling shareholders identified in the reoffer prospectus.  The number of shares of common stock included in the reoffer prospectus represents the total number of shares of common stock that may be acquired by the selling shareholders upon vesting of awards granted under the Plan and does not necessarily represent a present intention to sell all such shares of common stock.  The second part of this Registration Statement contains Information Required in the Registration Statement pursuant to Part II of Form S-8.

Such documents, together with the documents incorporated by reference herein pursuant to Item 3 of Part II of this Registration Statement on Form S-8, constitute a prospectus that meets the requirements of Section 10(a) of the Securities Act.

REOFFER PROSPECTUS
AMPHENOL CORPORATION
16,429 Shares of Common Stock
THE 2012 RESTRICTED STOCK PLAN FOR DIRECTORS OF AMPHENOL CORPORATION
This prospectus relates to the reoffer and resale by the selling stockholders of up to 16,429 shares of our Class A Common Stock, $0.001 par value per share (the "common stock") that may be issued under the 2012 Restricted Stock Plan for Directors of Amphenol Corporation (the "2012 Restricted Stock Plan").
Subject to vesting requirements and other limitations imposed under the 2012 Restricted Stock Plan, the common stock may be sold from time to time by the selling stockholders or by their pledgees, donees, transferees or other successors in interest.  Such sales may be made on a stock exchange, in the over-the-counter market or otherwise at prices and at terms then prevailing or at prices related to the then current market price, or in negotiated transactions.  The common stock may be sold from time to time, among other ways, by one or more brokers or dealers engaged by the selling stockholders.  Brokers or dealers may receive commissions or discounts from selling stockholders in amounts to be negotiated immediately prior to the sale.

ABOUT THIS PROSPECTUS
This prospectus is part of a registration statement we filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC" or the "Commission").  You should rely only on the information contained in this prospectus. We have not authorized any other person to provide you with different information. If anyone provides you with different or inconsistent information, you should not rely on it. Information contained on our website does not constitute a part of this prospectus. Selling stockholders are not making an offer to sell these securities in any jurisdiction where the offer or sale is not permitted. You should assume that the information appearing in this prospectus is accurate only as of the date on the front cover of this prospectus, regardless of the time this prospectus is delivered or the shares offered by this prospectus are sold. Our business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects may have changed since that date.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Certain statements in this prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference herein that are not purely historical information are "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). These forward-looking statements are often, but not always, made through the use of words or phrases such as "believe," "expect," "project," "plan," "intend," "anticipate," "estimate," "predict," "potential," "continue," "may," "should," "will," "would," "will be," "will continue," "will likely result," or the negative of these terms or similar expressions. These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, estimates, projections and information concerning our possible or assumed future business plans and strategies, results of operations, competitive position, potential operating performance improvements, the effects of competition and the effects of future legislation or regulations.
These forward-looking statements are based on our expectations, assumptions, estimates and projections about our business and the industry in which we operate as of the respective dates on which such forward-looking statements are made, and are not guarantees of our future performance. These forward-looking statements are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties that cannot be predicted, quantified or controlled and that could cause actual results to differ materially from those set forth in, contemplated by, or underlying, the forward-looking statements.  A discussion of some of the risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results and events to differ materially from these forward-looking statements is included in the sections entitled "Risk Factors" in this prospectus and "Part I, Item 1A. Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 and our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarterly periods thereafter, each of which is incorporated by reference herein. Because various factors could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those expressed in these forward-looking statements, you should not place undue reliance on any of these forward-looking statements.
Except as required by law, we do not undertake any obligation to update or publicly release any revisions to any forward-looking statement made by us or on our behalf to reflect new information, future events or changes in expectations after the date on which such forward-looking statement is made.

RISK FACTORS
Investing in shares of our common stock involves a high degree of risk. In considering whether to purchase any shares of common stock, you should carefully consider the specific risks discussed below. In addition to the information contained in this prospectus, you should also carefully consider the information we have included or incorporated by reference in this prospectus. In particular, you should carefully consider the risks described under the heading "Item 1A. Risk Factors" contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 and our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarters ended thereafter, each of which is incorporated by reference herein. Our business, results of operations and financial condition may be materially and adversely affected due to any of these risks. The trading price of our shares could decline due to any of these risks, and you could lose all or part of your investment. Some risk factors in this section are "forward-looking statements." See "Forward-Looking Statements."
Risks Relating to Our Common Stock
The market for our common stock may be volatile.
The market price of our common stock could be subject to wide fluctuations. These fluctuations could be caused by:
·
quarterly variations in our results of operations;
·
changes in earnings estimates by analysts;
·
conditions in our markets; or
·
general market or economic conditions.
In addition, in recent years the stock market has experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations. These fluctuations have had a substantial effect on the market prices of many companies, often unrelated to the operating performance of the specific companies. These market fluctuations could adversely affect the price of our common stock.
Sales or potential sales of our common stock by us or our significant stockholders may cause the market price of our common stock to decline.
We are not restricted from issuing additional shares of common stock, including shares issuable pursuant to securities that are convertible into or exchangeable for, or that represent the right to receive, common stock. As of October 31, 2012, we had 160,342,286 shares of common stock outstanding. In addition, as of that date, 13,792,049 shares of our common stock were issuable pursuant to outstanding stock options and awards which had not yet vested or been exercised or which had been previously acquired upon vesting or exercise but had not yet been delivered. Additional shares of common stock are also available to be granted under our existing equity plans or may be granted under future equity plans. Stock sales by our directors, officers, or significant holders may affect our stock price.
USE OF PROCEEDS
The proceeds from the sale of the shares of our common stock being offered by the selling stockholders pursuant to this prospectus will belong to the selling stockholders.  We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of such shares. We will not receive any proceeds from the issuance and vesting of restricted shares under the 2012 Restricted Stock Plan.
We will bear all costs, expenses and fees in connection with the registration of the shares. Brokerage commissions and similar selling expenses, if any, attributable to the offer or sale of the shares will be borne by the selling stockholders.

SELLING STOCKHOLDERS
The 16,429 shares of our common stock to which this reoffer prospectus relates is comprised entirely of shares issuable under the 2012 Restricted Stock Plan, one of our "employee benefit plans" as that term is defined in Rule 405 of Regulation C under the Securities Act.  The shares are being registered for reoffers and resales by our non-employee directors named below.
The selling stockholders are our prior, current or future non-employee directors (or any of their respective assigns) who have acquired or may acquire in the future shares of our common stock granted under the 2012 Restricted Stock Plan.  After satisfying the vesting requirements imposed under the 2012 Restricted Stock Plan, the selling stockholders may, from time to time, resell all, a portion or none of the shares of our common stock covered by this reoffer prospectus.  There is no assurance that any of the selling stockholders will sell any or all of the shares offered by them under this reoffer prospectus.  Any changed information will be set forth in an amendment to the registration statement or supplement to this reoffer prospectus, to the extent required by law.  To the extent our non-employee directors change from the non-employee directors named below, this prospectus may be amended or supplemented from time to time to add selling stockholders or to delete the names of selling stockholders from the following list or to otherwise amend or supplement the information in the table set forth below.
The address of the stockholders listed below is care of Amphenol Corporation, 358 Hall Avenue
Wallingford, CT 06492.  The following table sets forth the name and relationship to the Company of the selling stockholders and: (1) the number of shares of common stock that the selling stockholders beneficially owned as of October 31, 2012; (2) the number of shares of common stock that the selling stockholders may offer pursuant to this prospectus; and (3) (if one percent or more) the percentage of the class to be beneficially owned by such selling stockholder assuming the sale of all shares offered pursuant to this prospectus.
The inclusion in the table of the individuals named therein shall not be deemed to be an admission that any such individual is one of our affiliates.

A person is also deemed to
4
be a beneficial owner of a security if that person has the right to acquire beneficial ownership of such security at any time within 60 days from October 31, 2012.
(2)
Based on 160,342,286 shares of common stock issued and outstanding as of October 31, 2012.
(3)
The amounts for each Selling Stockholder assume full vesting of all shares of our common stock issued under the 2012 Restricted Stock Plan and held by such Selling Stockholder.
(4)
Assumes that all shares offered hereby are sold but no other securities held by Selling Stockholders are sold.
(5)
The share ownership amounts in this table include 4,000, 16,000, 100,000, 24,149, 153,900, 14,000 and 7,508 shares which are currently owned directly by Messrs. Badie, Clark, Jepsen, Lietz, Loeffler, Lord and Secord, respectively. The 100,000 shares of common stock owned by Mr. Jepsen reflected in this table have been pledged as security. Pursuant to the pledge arrangement, Mr. Jepsen has the power to vote or direct the voting of the shares and he has the power to dispose or direct the disposition of the shares. The share ownership amount for Mr. Secord includes 1,000 shares of common stock owned directly by his spouse. The table also includes 63,999, 63,999, 39,999, 10,000, 63,999 and 63,999 shares which are not presently owned by Messrs. Badie, Clark, Jepsen, Lietz, Lord and Secord, respectively, but which would be issuable upon the exercise of stock options pursuant to the Amended 2004 Stock Option Plan for Directors of Amphenol Corporation (the "Directors' Stock Option Plan") which are currently exercisable or are exercisable within 60 days of October 31, 2012.
(6)
The share ownership amounts for Messrs. Badie, Clark and Lietz reflected in this table do not include any shares of the Company's common stock which may be issued pursuant to the Amphenol Corporation Directors' Deferred Compensation Plan (the "Directors' Deferred Compensation Plan"). Mr. Badie was appointed to the Board on July 21, 2004 and the cumulative balance in his Directors' Deferred Compensation account as of October 31, 2012, including credit for dividends, is 9,380 unit shares. Mr. Clark was appointed to the Board on January 27, 2005 and the cumulative balance in his Directors' Deferred Compensation account as of October 31, 2012, including credit for dividends, is 8,247 unit shares. Mr. Lord was appointed to the Board on March 10, 2004 and he has elected not to defer fees pursuant to the Directors' Deferred Compensation Plan. He receives his fees in cash. Mr. Loeffler was appointed to the Board on December 1, 1987 and he has elected not to defer his fees pursuant to the Directors' Deferred Compensation Plan. He receives his fees in cash. Mr. Jepsen was appointed to the Board on January 5, 2005 and he has elected not to defer his fees pursuant to the Directors' Deferred Compensation Plan. He receives his fees in cash. Mr. Secord was appointed to the Board on March 28, 2002 and he participated in the Directors' Deferred Compensation Plan through the fourth quarter 2008. Since that time, Mr. Secord has elected to receive his fees in cash in lieu of shares. In December 2010, Mr. Secord converted all unit shares to common stock leaving a zero balance in his Directors' Deferred Compensation account. Mr. Lietz was appointed to the Board on January 24, 2011 and he participated in the Directors' Deferred Compensation Plan through the second quarter of 2012.  In July 2012, Mr. Lietz converted all of his unit shares to common stock leaving a zero balance in his Directors' Deferred Compensation Account.  Commencing with the fourth quarter 2009, Messrs. Badie and Clark and elected to receive their quarterly director's fees in cash in lieu of shares. As long as the election to receive quarterly director's fees in cash in lieu of shares continues, the cumulative balance in each of Messrs. Badie and Clark's Director's Deferred Compensation Plan account will only increase by the number of shares credited for dividends.
(7)
The table also includes 763,333 shares which are not presently owned by Mr. Loeffler, but which would be issuable upon the exercise of stock options which are currently exercisable or are exercisable within 60 days of October 31, 2012. Of these 763,333 shares, 760,000 would be issuable upon the exercise of stock options granted pursuant to the 2009 Stock Purchase and Option Plan for Key Employees of Amphenol and Subsidiaries and 3,333 shares would be issuable upon the exercise of stock options granted pursuant to the Director's Stock Option Plan.
Any selling stockholder may from time to time sell under this prospectus any or all of the shares of common stock listed as being offered for sale.  Because the selling stockholders are not obligated to sell any or all of
5
the shares of common stock, we cannot estimate the number of shares of common stock that the selling stockholders will beneficially own after this offering.  Also, this prospectus does not include shares that may be acquired upon exercise of options that we may grant under our other various stock incentive plans in the future. The shares issuable under the 2012 Restricted Stock Plan in the future may subsequently be sold pursuant to this prospectus, as supplemented to reflect the offering of such underlying shares for resale.
6
PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
Under the 2012 Restricted Stock Plan, we are authorized to issue up to 125,000 shares of our common stock.
Subject to the vesting requirements and other limitations imposed under the 2012 Restricted Stock Plan, the selling stockholders may offer and sell the shares covered by this prospectus at various times. The selling stockholders will act independently of the Company in making decisions with respect to the timing, manner and size of each sale. To our knowledge, no selling stockholder has any agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to resell the shares of our common stock covered by this prospectus.
The sales price offered by the selling stockholders to the public may be: the market price prevailing at the time of sale; a price related to such prevailing market price; or such other price as the selling stockholders determine from time to time.
The shares of our common stock may be sold by means of one or more of the following methods:
·
a block trade in which the broker-dealer so engaged will attempt to sell the shares of common stock as agent, but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;
·
purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by that broker-dealer for its account pursuant to this prospectus;
·
ordinary brokerage transactions in which the broker solicits purchasers;
·
through options, swaps or derivatives;
·
in transactions to cover short sales;
·
in privately negotiated transactions; or
·
in a combination of any of the above methods.
The shares offered by this prospectus may be sold from time to time directly by or on behalf of the selling stockholders in one or more transactions on the NYSE or on any stock exchange on which the common stock may be listed at the time of sale, in privately negotiated transactions, or through a combination of these methods.  The selling stockholders may sell their shares of common stock directly to purchasers or may use brokers, dealers, underwriters or agents to sell their shares. Brokers or dealers engaged by the selling stockholders may arrange for other brokers or dealers to participate. Brokers or dealers may receive commissions, discounts or concessions from the selling stockholders, or, if any such broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of shares of common stock, from the purchaser in amounts to be negotiated immediately prior to the sale. The compensation received by brokers or dealers may, but is not expected to, exceed that which is customary for the types of transactions involved.
Broker-dealers may agree with a selling stockholder to sell a specified number of shares of common stock at a stipulated price per share of common stock, and, to the extent the broker-dealer is unable to do so acting as agent for a selling stockholder, to purchase as principal any unsold shares of common stock at the price required to fulfill the broker-dealer commitment to the selling stockholder.
Broker-dealers who acquire shares of common stock as principal may thereafter resell the shares of common stock from time to time in transactions, which may involve block transactions and sales to and through other broker-dealers, including transactions of the nature described above, in the over-the-counter market or otherwise at prices and on terms then prevailing at the time of sale, at prices then related to the then-current market price or in negotiated transactions. In connection with resales of the shares of common stock, broker-dealers may pay to or receive from the purchasers of shares commissions as described above.  If our selling stockholders enter into arrangements with brokers or dealers as described in this paragraph, we are obligated to file a post-effective
7
amendment to this registration statement disclosing such arrangements, including the names of any broker-dealers acting as underwriters.
The selling stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that participate with the selling stockholders in the sale of the shares of common stock may be deemed to be "underwriters" within the meaning of the Securities Act. In that event, any commissions received by broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the shares of common stock purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act.
Sales Pursuant to Rule 144
Any shares of common stock covered by this prospectus which qualify for sale pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act may be sold under Rule 144 rather than pursuant to this prospectus.
Accordingly, during such times as a selling stockholder may be deemed to be engaged in a distribution of the shares of common stock, and therefore be considered to be an underwriter, the selling shareholder must comply with applicable law and, among other things:
·
may not engage in any stabilization activities in connection with shares of our common stock;
·
may not cover short sales by purchasing shares while the distribution is taking place; and
·
may not bid for or purchase any of our securities or attempt to induce any person to purchase any of our securities other than as permitted under the Exchange Act.
In addition, we will make copies of this prospectus available to the selling shareholders for the purpose of satisfying the prospectus delivery requirements of the Securities Act.
State Securities Laws
Under the securities laws of some states, the shares of common stock may be sold in such states only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states the shares of common stock may not be sold unless the shares have been registered or qualified for sale in the state or an exemption from registration or qualification is available and is complied with.
Expenses of Registration
We are bearing all costs relating to the registration of the common stock being offered hereby. The selling stockholders, however, will pay any commissions or other fees payable to brokers or dealers in connection with any sale of the shares of common stock offered hereby.  Neither we nor the selling stockholders can currently estimate the amount of commissions or discounts, if any, that will be paid by the selling stockholders on account of their sales of the shares from time to time.
LEGAL MATTERS
The validity of the common stock being offered pursuant to this prospectus will be passed upon for us by Edward C. Wetmore, our Vice President, Secretary and General Counsel.  As of October 31, 2012, Mr. Wetmore beneficially owned 152,792 shares of our common stock (including 3,392 shares held directly and 149,400 shares issuable upon the exercise of options vested as of October 31, 2012 or within 60 days thereafter).

Item 9.   Undertakings.
(a)
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
II-2
(1)
To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement to:
(i)
include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;
(ii)
reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the Registration Statement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective registration statement; and
(iii)
include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration Statement or any material change to such information in this Registration Statement;
provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Company pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in this registration statement.
(2)
That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial
bona fide
offering thereof; and
(3)
To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
(b)
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Company's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(c)
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers or controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.  In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
II-3
SIGNATURES
