10.2. Acceleration of Vesting. The Administrator, in its sole discretion, may accelerate the vesting of any Award (including the lapsing of the Period of Restriction for Restricted Stock), or remove conditions for vesting (or lapsing of the Period of Restriction) upon a Change in Control or the Participant’s death, retirement, layoff, separation from service in connection with a Change in Control, or other separation from service where the Administrator determines that such treatment is appropriate and in the Company’s best interests, as well as upon assumption of, or in substitution for equity awards of a company with which Avnet or a Subsidiary participates in an acquisition, separation, merger, or similar corporate transaction; provided, however, that with respect to an Award to a Covered Participant that is intended to qualify as “other performance-based compensation,” waiver of performance conditions shall be permitted only to the extent permitted by Revenue Ruling 2008-13 or any successor thereto. In addition, the Administrator may grant awards of Restricted Stock, Restricted Stock Units, and Other Stock Unit Awards that do not satisfy the minimum vesting periods and Periods of Restriction prescribed by Sections 7.3, 8.2, and 9.3(a); provided, however, that the total number of shares of Stock underlying Awards that do not satisfy such minimum vesting periods and Periods of Restriction shall not exceed five percent (5%) of the total number of shares available for grant under the Plan.

10.3. Tax Withholding. The Company shall have the right to deduct from all amounts paid to a Participant or beneficiary any taxes required by law to be withheld in respect of Awards under the Plan. In the case of an Award settled in shares of Stock, no shares of Stock shall be issued, and no election under Section 83(b) of the Code shall be accepted, unless and until arrangements satisfactory to the Company have been made to satisfy any applicable withholding tax obligations. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing and subject to such terms and conditions as the Committee may impose, the Company shall have the right to (a) retain shares of Stock or (b) subject to such terms and conditions as the Committee may establish from time to time, allow Participants or beneficiaries to (i) tender shares of Stock (including shares of Stock issuable in respect of an Award) to satisfy, in whole or in part, the amount required to be withheld, or (ii) pay the required withholding amount to Avnet in cash. For purposes of determining the number of shares of Stock required to satisfy a withholding obligation, the Fair Market Value shall be calculated as of the date that the amount to be withheld is determined. A Participant or beneficiary shall pay Avnet cash for any fractional share that would otherwise be required to be withheld. Regardless of the amount withheld, each Participant and beneficiary shall be responsible at all times for paying all federal, state, and local income and employment taxes due with respect to any Award (including taxes due with respect to imputed income), and the Company shall not be responsible for any interest or penalty that a Participant incurs by failing to make timely payments of tax.

10.4. No Right to Employment. The Plan shall not confer upon any Participant or other individual any right with respect to continuance of employment by the Company or continuance of membership on the Board of Directors, nor shall it interfere in any way with his right, or the Company’s right, to terminate his employment or Board membership at any time.

10.5. Shareholder Rights. Except provided in Article 7 with respect to Restricted Stock, no Participant shall acquire or have any rights as a shareholder of Avnet by virtue of any Award until the certificates representing shares of Stock issued pursuant to the Award or the exercise thereof are delivered to such Participant or otherwise recorded in the books and records of Avnet in accordance with the terms of the Plan. Subsequent to such delivery of Stock certificates or recordation in the books and records of Avnet, the recipient of shares of Stock shall have the full rights of a holder of such Stock.

10.6. Registration of Shares. It is Avnet’s present intention to register under the Securities Act. Avnet shall not be obligated to sell or deliver any shares of Stock pursuant to the granting or exercise of any Award unless and until—

(a) either (i) Avnet has received from its counsel an opinion concluding that such shares need not be registered under the Exchange Act, or (ii) (A) Such shares have been registered under the Securities Act, (B) no stop order suspending the effectiveness of such registration statement has been issued and no proceedings therefor have been instituted or threatened

under said Act, and (C) there is available at the time of such grant and/or exercise a prospectus containing certified financial statements and other information meeting the requirements of Section 10(a)(3) of said Act;

(b) such shares are (or upon official notice of issuance will be) listed on each national securities exchange on which the Stock is then listed;

(c) the prior approval of such delivery has been obtained from any State regulatory body having jurisdiction (but nothing herein contained shall be deemed to require Avnet to register or qualify as a foreign corporation in any State nor, except as to any matter or transaction relating to the sale or delivery of such shares, to consent in service of process in any State); and

(d) if the Committee so requires, Avnet has received an opinion from its counsel with respect to compliance with the matters set forth in subsections (a), (b), and/or (c) of this Section 10.6. In addition, the making of any Award or determination, the delivery or recording of a stock transfer, and payment of any amount due to a Participant may be postponed for such period as Avnet may require, in the exercise of reasonable diligence, to comply with the requirements of any applicable law.

10.7. Document Requirements. The Committee may require, as a condition of any payment or share issuance, that certain agreements, undertakings, representations, certificates, and/or information, as the Committee may deem necessary or advisable, be executed or provided to the Company to assure compliance with all applicable laws. Any certificates for shares of Stock delivered under the Plan may be subject to such stock-transfer orders and other restrictions as the Committee may deem advisable under the rules, regulations, and other requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission, any stock exchange upon which the Stock is then listed, and any applicable federal or state securities law.

10.8. Deferrals. The Administrator may allow a Participant to elect to defer receipt of any payment of cash or any delivery of shares of Stock that would otherwise be due to such Participant by virtue of the exercise, earn-out, or settlement of any Award made under the Plan, other than Options or Stock Appreciation Rights. If such election is permitted, the Committee shall establish rules and procedures for such deferrals, including provisions that the Committee or the Participant determines are necessary or advisable to comply with, or avoid being subject to, the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, and provisions for the payment or crediting of dividend equivalents in respect of deferrals credited in units of Stock.

10.9. Nontransferability. Except as otherwise provided in Section 7.7, this Section 10.9, or the applicable Agreement, no Award granted under the Plan, and no interests therein, may be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, exchanged, encumbered or otherwise alienated or hypothecated; and each Award shall be exercisable during the Participant’s lifetime only by the Participant or his legal guardian or representative.

(a) An Award may be transferred by testamentary disposition or the laws of descent and distribution.

(b) The Committee shall have sole discretion to approve, and to establish terms and conditions for, a transfer of an Option other than an Incentive Stock Option to (i) the child, step-child, grandchild, parent, stepparent, grandparent, spouse, former spouse, sibling, niece, nephew, mother-in-law, son-in-law, daughter-in-law, brother-in-law, sister-in-law, including adoptive relationships, and any person sharing the Participant’s household (other than a tenant or employee) of the Participant (an “Immediate Family Member”); (ii) a trust in which Immediate Family Members have more than fifty percent of the beneficial interest; (iii) a foundation in which Immediate Family Members or the Employee control the management of the assets; or (iv) any other entity in which Immediate Family Members or the Employee own more than 50% of the voting interests; provided, however, that, without the prior approval of the Committee, no Permitted Transferee shall further transfer an Award, either directly or indirectly, other than by testamentary disposition or the laws of descent and distribution. For example, without prior approval of the Committee, a Permitted Transferee may not transfer an Award by reason of the dissolution of, or a change in the beneficiaries of, a Permitted Transferee that is a trust; the sale, merger, consolidation, dissolution, or liquidation of a Permitted Transferee that is a partnership (or the sale of all or any portion of the partnership interests therein); or the sale, merger, consolidation, dissolution or liquidation of a Permitted Transferee that is a corporation (or the sale of all or any portion of the stock thereof).

(c) The Committee shall have discretion to authorize a transfer pursuant to a domestic relations order; provided, however, that the Committee shall not be required under any circumstance to accept or approve a transfer pursuant to a domestic relations order.

10.10. Applicable Law and Severability. The Plan, and its rules, rights, agreements and regulations, shall be governed, construed, interpreted and administered solely in accordance with the laws of the state of New York, without regard to any conflicts or choice of law rule or principle that might otherwise refer construction or interpretation of the Plan to the substantive law of another jurisdiction. If any provision of the Plan is held invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, in whole or in part, for any reason, such determination shall not affect the validity, legality or enforceability of any remaining provision, portion of provision or the Plan overall, which shall remain in full force and effect as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision (or portion thereof) had never been included in the Plan.

10.11. Special Incentive Compensation. No shares of Stock or other remuneration provided pursuant to an Award shall be included in compensation for purposes of determining the amount payable to any individual under any pension, savings, retirement, life insurance, or other employee benefits arrangement of the Company, unless otherwise determined by the Company.

10.12. Legends. In its sole and complete discretion, the Committee may elect to legend certificates representing shares of Stock sold or awarded under the Plan, to make appropriate references to the restrictions imposed on such shares.

10.13. Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act. All Agreements for Participants subject to Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act shall be deemed to include any such additional terms, conditions, limitations and provisions as Rule 16b-3 requires, unless the Committee in its discretion determines that any such Award should not be governed by Rule 16b-3. In addition, with respect to persons subject to Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, transactions under the Plan are intended to comply with all applicable conditions of Rule 16b-3. To the extent that any provision of the Plan or any action by the Administrators fails to comply with Rule 16b-3, it shall be deemed null and void, to the extent permitted by law and deemed advisable by the Committee.

10.14. Section 162(m) of the Code. Each Award to a Covered Participant that is contingent upon the achievement of Performance Objectives shall be deemed to include any such additional terms, conditions, limitations, and other provisions as are necessary for such Award to qualify as “other performance-based compensation” within the meaning of Section 162(m)(4)(C) of the Code, unless the Committee in its discretion determines that such Award is not intended to qualify as “other performance-based compensation.” Performance Objectives for each Award granted to a Covered Employee shall be measured either annually or cumulatively over a period of years, on an absolute basis or relative to a pre-established target, as specified by the Committee in the Agreement. The Performance Objectives for each Award that is intended to qualify as “other performance-based compensation” shall be set forth in writing no later than 90 days after commencement of the period of service (within the meaning of Treas. Reg. §1.162-27(e)(2)(i)) to which the Performance Objectives relate (or, if sooner, before 25 percent (25%) of such period of service has elapsed), at a time when achievement of the Performance Objectives is substantially uncertain. To the extent permitted by Section 162(m)(4)(C) of the Code, the Committee may adjust performance results to take into account extraordinary, unusual, non-recurring, or non-comparable items, and shall have discretion to reduce the amount due upon attainment of any Performance Objective. No amount shall be paid to a Covered Employee pursuant to an Award that is contingent upon the achievement of Performance Objectives unless and until the Committee has certified that the Performance Objectives have been satisfied. To the extent required by Section 162(m) of the Code, canceled Awards shall continue to be counted against the limit set forth in Section 3.2 on shares of Stock available for Awards.

10.15. Section 409A of the Code. The Plan, any Award granted under the Plan, and all Agreements evidencing such Awards, shall be interpreted, administered, and construed consistent with the intent that (a) all options, SARs, and comparable awards shall be exempt from Section 409A of the Code by reason of the exemption for certain stock rights set forth in Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-1(b)(5); (b) all Awards of Restricted Stock shall be exempt from Section 409A of the Code by reason of the exemption for restricted property governed by Section 83 of the Code set forth in Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-1(b)(6); (c) all Restricted Stock Unit Awards shall be exempt from Section 409A of the Code by reason of the “short-term deferral rule” set forth in Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-1(b)(4); and (d) and all Other Stock Unit Awards shall be exempt from Section 409A of the Code by reason of one of the provisions referenced in clause (a), (b), or (c), except (with respect to each type of Award) to the extent that the applicable Agreement clearly sets forth an intent to provide for nonqualified deferred compensation that is subject to the requirements of Section 409A.

10.16. Application of Proceeds. The proceeds received by the Company from the sale of Shares under the Plan shall be used for general corporate purposes.

10.17. Rules of Construction. Whenever used in the Plan, (a) words in the masculine gender shall be deemed to refer to females as well as to males; (b) words in the singular shall be deemed to refer also to the plural; (c) the word “include” shall mean “including but not limited to”; (d) references to a statute or regulation or statutory or regulatory provision shall refer to that provision (or to a successor provision of similar import) as currently in effect, as amended, or as reenacted, and to any regulations and other formal guidance of general applicability issued thereunder; and (e) references to a law shall include any statute, regulation, rule, court case, or other requirement established by an exchange or a governmental authority or agency, and applicable law shall include any tax law that imposes requirements in order to avoid adverse tax consequences.

10.18. Headings and Captions. The headings and captions in this Plan document are provided for reference and convenience only, shall not be considered part of the Plan, and shall not be employed in the construction of the Plan.

10.19. Effective Date. The Plan shall become effective on the date the Plan is approved by Avnet’s shareholders.

ARTICLE 11
ADJUSTMENTS UPON CHANGES IN CAPITALIZATION

11.1. Share Adjustments. If the Stock is split, divided, or otherwise reclassified into or exchanged for a greater or lesser number of shares of Stock or into shares of Stock and/or any other securities of Avnet by reason of recapitalization, reclassification, stock split or reverse split, combination of shares or other reorganization, the term “Stock” as used herein shall thereafter mean the number and kind of shares or other securities into which the Stock shall have been so split, divided or otherwise reclassified or for which the Stock shall have been so exchanged; and the remaining number of shares of Stock which may, in the aggregate, thereafter be delivered pursuant to the grant or exercise of an Award and the remaining number of shares of Stock which may thereafter be delivered pursuant to the exercise of any Options and/or Stock Appreciation Rights then outstanding, shall be correspondingly adjusted. If a dividend payable in shares of Stock is paid to the holders of outstanding shares of Stock, the remaining number of shares of Stock which may, in the aggregate, thereafter be delivered pursuant to the exercise or grant of Awards, and the remaining number of shares of Stock that may thereafter be delivered pursuant to the exercise of any Awards then outstanding shall be increased by the percentage that the number of shares of Stock so paid as a dividend bears to the total number of shares of Stock outstanding immediately before the payment of such dividend. If an extraordinary cash dividend is paid to the holders of outstanding shares of Stock, the remaining number of shares of Stock that may, in the aggregate, thereafter be delivered pursuant to the exercise or grant of Awards and the remaining number of shares of Stock that may thereafter be delivered pursuant to the exercise of any Awards then outstanding, shall be equitably adjusted by the Committee.

11.2. Exercise Price Adjustments. If the Stock is split, divided or otherwise reclassified or exchanged, or that any dividend payable in shares or Stock or extraordinary cash dividend is paid to the holders of outstanding shares of Stock, in each case, as provided in the preceding paragraph, the purchase price per share of Stock upon exercise of outstanding Options, and the aggregate number of shares of Stock with respect to which Awards may be granted to any Participant in any calendar year, shall be correspondingly adjusted.

11.3. Fractional Shares. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article 11, if upon any adjustment made in accordance with Section 11.1 above, the remaining number of shares of Stock which may thereafter be delivered pursuant to the exercise of any Award then outstanding shall include a fractional share of Stock, such fractional share of Stock shall be disregarded for all purposes of the Plan and the Optionee holding such Award shall become entitled neither to purchase the same nor to receive cash or scrip in payment therefor or in lieu thereof.

ARTICLE 12
AMENDMENT OR TERMINATION OF THE PLAN

12.1. The Plan shall automatically terminate on November 4, 2020, unless it is sooner terminated pursuant to Section 12.2, below. No Award shall be granted after the Plan terminates. All Awards granted before the Plan terminates shall continue in effect thereafter in accordance with the terms of the applicable Agreements and the Plan.

12.2. Reservation of Rights. The Board of Directors may amend or terminate the Plan at any time as the Board may deem advisable and in the best interests of Avnet; provided, however, that the terms of an outstanding Award shall not be changed without written consent of the Participant and, unless approved by the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at a meeting of the shareholders of Avnet duly called and held for that purpose, no amendment to the Plan shall be adopted which shall (a) affect the composition or functioning of the Committee; (b) increase the aggregate number of shares of Stock that may be delivered pursuant to the exercise of Awards; (c) increase the aggregate number of shares of Stock with respect to which Options or other Awards may be granted to any Participant during any calendar year; (d) decrease the minimum purchase price per share of Stock (in relation to the Fair Market Value thereof at the respective dates of grant) upon the exercise of Options; or (e) extend the ten-year maximum period within which an Award is exercisable or the termination date of the Plan.
