| Explanation of Responses: |
| 1. The exercise reported was effected pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan adopted by Mr. Lieser on November 7, 2024. |
| 2. Represents the balance of shares of Belden Inc. common stock held in the Belden Retirement Savings Plan as of the date of this filing. |
| 3. This represents the difference between the number of SARs exercised (1,200) and the number of shares issued as a result of the exercise (297). The number of shares to be issued under a SAR exercise is determined by multiplying the number of SARs being exercised by the difference between the FMV on the date of exercise ($113.85) and the exercise price ($61.79). Additional shares were then withheld to satisfy the Company's tax withholding obligations. |
| 4. The sale reported was effected pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan adopted by Mr. Lieser on November 7, 2024. |
| 5. The original grant of stock appreciation rights became exercisable in equal portions on the first three anniversaries of the grant date. |
