EXPLANATORY NOTE

Belden CDT Inc. (the Company) files this second amendment to its Current Report
("Report") on Form 8-K, which it initially filed on July 16, 2004 and then
amended on August 9, 2004 to include financial statements of Belden Inc.
("Belden") in response to Item 7 of the Form 8-K instructions that applied at
the time the amendment was filed. Now, the Company files this second amendment
to include the financial statements required by Item 9.01 of the amended
instructions to Form 8-K.

ITEM 9.01         FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND EXHIBITS.

         (b)      Pro Forma Financial Information

          UNAUDITED PRO FORMA COMBINED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

         The following unaudited pro forma combined condensed balance sheet of
Belden CDT as of June 30, 2004 and the unaudited pro forma combined condensed
statement of operations for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and the year
ended December 31, 2003 are based on the historical financial statements of
Belden and CDT after giving effect to the merger. In accordance with Statement
of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, "Business Combinations" (SFAS 141),
and the assumptions and adjustments described in the accompanying notes to the
unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial statements, Belden is
considered the accounting acquiror. The merger was completed on July 15, 2004.
Because Belden's owners as a group retained or received the larger portion of
the voting rights in the combined entity and Belden's senior management
represents a majority of the senior management of the combined entity, Belden
was considered the acquiror for accounting purposes and will account for the
merger as a reverse acquisition under the purchase method of accounting for
business combinations under accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America, which means that the consideration paid (purchase
price) will be allocated to the tangible and intangible net assets of CDT based
upon their fair values, and the net assets of CDT will be recorded at fair
value as of the completion of the merger and added to those of Belden. Belden
CDT's fiscal year will end on December 31.

         The unaudited pro forma combined condensed balance sheet as of June
30, 2004 is presented to give effect to the proposed merger as if it occurred
on June 30, 2004 and, due to different fiscal period-ends, combines the
historical balance sheet of Belden at June 30, 2004 and the historical balance
sheet of CDT at April 30, 2004. The unaudited pro forma combined condensed
statement of operations of Belden and CDT for the six months ended June 30,
2004 and year ended December 31, 2003 are presented as if the combination had
taken place on January 1, 2004 and January 1, 2003 for Belden and November 1,
2003 and February 1, 2003 for CDT and, due to different fiscal period-ends,
combines the historical results of Belden for the six month period ending June
30, 2004 and twelve month period ended December 31, 2003 and the historical
results of CDT for the six month period ending April 30, 2004 twelve month
period ended January 31, 2004.

         Reclassifications have been made to CDT's historical financial
statements to conform to Belden's historical financial statement presentation.

         In accordance with SFAS 141, CDT's tangible and intangible net assets
were adjusted to their fair values and the excess of the purchase price over
the fair value of CDT's net assets was recorded as goodwill. The preliminary
adjustments to tangible and intangible net assets including goodwill that are
shown in these unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial statements are
based on various preliminary estimates by management. The work performed by
independent valuation specialists has been considered in management's estimates
of the fair values. A final determination of these fair values will include
management's consideration of a final valuation by the independent valuation
specialists. This final valuation will be based on the actual net tangible and
intangible assets of CDT that existed as of the completion date of the merger.

         The unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial statements include
preliminary adjustments for liabilities resulting from integration planning.
Preliminary Liability adjustments include change in control and integration
incentive costs of $10,785, severance costs of $8,603, costs of vacating some
facilities (leased or owned) of CDT and other costs


                                       2

associated with exiting activities of CDT of $11,165, and benefit plan
obligations of $13,838. In addition, Belden CDT announced significant
restructuring activities after completion of the merger and will incur costs
for severance or relocation costs related to Belden employees, costs of
vacating some facilities (leased or owned) of Belden, or other costs associated
with exiting activities of Belden. Cost associated with exiting activities of
Belden are not included in the pro forma adjustments since such activities are
not part of CDT. The unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial
statements also do not reflect cost savings that are expected to result from
the integration activities and elimination of duplicate expenses after the
merger.

         The unaudited pro forma combined condensed financial statements should
be read in conjunction with "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations" and the historical consolidated financial
statements and accompanying notes of Belden and CDT incorporated by reference
in the joint proxy statement/prospectus filed on June 3, 2004 with the
Securities and Exchange Commission on Form S-4. The unaudited pro forma
combined condensed financial statements are not intended to represent or be
indicative of the consolidated results of operations or financial condition of
Belden CDT that would have been reported had the merger been completed as of
the dates presented, and should not be taken as representative of the future
consolidated results of operations or financial condition of Belden CDT.

         The value of the CDT common stock used to determine the overall merger
consideration was calculated using the average closing price of the stock from
February 2, 2004 to February 6, 2004.

         Outstanding options (after giving effect to the reverse stock split)
to purchase a total of 1,969 shares of CDT common stock were converted into a
total of 1,969 options to purchase Belden CDT common stock and those options
fully vested on the effective date of the merger. The fair value of these
options was determined using the Black-Scholes option pricing model with the
following assumptions:


                                                    
         Expected volatility: ...............          41.10%
         Risk free interest rate: ...........           2.46%
         Expected life of options (years) ...            3.7
         Expected dividend yield: ...........           5.40%


         The merger consideration was allocated to the preliminary fair values
of CDT's assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the date the merger. The
excess of the merger consideration over the preliminary fair values of assets
acquired and liabilities assumed was recorded as goodwill.

Notes

(A)      Reflects the estimated revaluation of CDT's inventory from book value
         to preliminary fair value and the adjustment for product lines the
         Company determined it will no longer offer to customers. The inventory
         revaluation will result in increased cost of sales as inventory is
         sold (estimated to sell during the first 3 to 4 months after the
         merger).
