Pursuant to

  "Securities Act"), this Registration Statement also covers an indeterminate
  number of additional shares of Common Stock to be offered or sold pursuant to
  the above-named plans that may be issued as a result of the adjustment
  provisions therein by reason of certain corporate transactions or events,
  including any stock dividend, stock split, recapitalization or other similar
  transaction effected without the receipt of consideration that results in an
  increase in the number of the registrant's outstanding shares of Common
  Stock.
(2)
Pursuant to Rule 416(b)
  of the Securities Act, the amount to be registered includes an increase of
  5,400,000 shares of common stock resulting from two 2-for-1 splits of
  1,800,000 shares which were previously registered under The 2000 Stock
  Purchase and Option Plan for Key Employees of Amphenol and Subsidiaries.
(3)
The proposed maximum offering price per share and
  proposed maximum aggregate offering price for the 22,200,000 shares of Common

  Pursuant to Rule 416(b) of the Securities Act, no additional fee is

  connection with The 2000 Stock Purchase and Stock Option Plan for Key
