SECTION 3.1.2  Borrowing Procedure for Swing Line Loans.
 
(a)           In the case of Swing Line Loans, on any Business Day occurring after the Effective Date and on or prior to the Commitment Termination Date, any Borrower may from time to time irrevocably request, by delivering on or prior to 1:00 p.m., Applicable Time, on such Business Day a Borrowing Request to the Administrative Agent not less than one nor more than five Business Days before the date of the proposed Borrowing that a Swing Line Loan be made to such Borrower.  Alternatively, by telephonic notice to the Swing Line Lender on or before 12:00 noon, Applicable Time, on a Business Day (followed within one Business Day by the delivery of a confirming Borrowing Request), any Borrower may from time to time irrevocably request that Swing Line Loans be made by the Swing Line Lender.  In either case, Swing Line Loans shall be in an aggregate minimum principal amount of $500,000 and an integral multiple of $100,000.  All Swing Line Loans shall be made as Base Rate Loans and shall not be entitled to be converted into LIBO Rate Loans.  The proceeds of each Swing Line Loan requested by telephonic notice shall be made available by the Swing Line Lender to the relevant Borrower by wire transfer to the account such Borrower shall have specified in its notice therefor (i) for requests in U.S. Dollars, by 2:00 p.m., Applicable Time, on the Business Day telephonic notice is received by the Swing Line Lender (so long as such request is received at or before 12:00 noon (Applicable Time)), (ii) for requests of Loans to be made in Euros, by the close of business on the Business Day telephonic notice is received by the Swing Line Lender (so long as such request is received at or before 11:00 a.m., London time) and (iii) for requests of Loans to be made in Sterling, by the close of business on the Business Day telephonic notice is received by the Swing Line Lender (so long as such request is received at or before 12:00 noon, London time).  Proceeds of Swing Line Loans in respect of telephonic notices received by the Swing Line Lender after the time set forth in the preceding sentence shall be made available to the applicable Borrower by 10:00 a.m. (Applicable Time) on the next succeeding Business Day.  Swing Line Loans shall be made available to the applicable Borrower no later than 9:30 a.m. (Applicable Time) on the date requested, in the case of a Swing Line Loan requested pursuant to a Borrowing Request.  Upon the making of each Swing Line Loan, and without further action on the part of the Swing Line Lender or any other Person, each Lender (other than the Swing Line Lender) shall be deemed to have irrevocably purchased, to the extent of its Percentage, a participation interest in such Swing Line Loan, and such Lender shall, to the extent of its Percentage, be responsible for reimbursing the Swing Line Lender for Swing Line Loans which have not been repaid by the relevant Borrower in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.  The Swing Line Lender shall provide to Micro a confirmation of Swing Line Loan borrowings by facsimile or electronic mail, as requested by Micro.
 
(b)           If (i)  any Default shall occur and be continuing, or (ii) at any time, and in the Swing Line Lender’s sole and absolute discretion, then each Lender (other than the Swing Line Lender) irrevocably agrees that it will, at the request of the Swing Line Lender, make a Revolving Loan (which shall initially be funded as a Base Rate Loan) in an amount equal to such Lender’s Percentage of the aggregate principal amount of all such Swing Line Loans then outstanding and in the same currency in which such Loans were made (such outstanding Swing Line Loans hereinafter referred to as the “Refunded Swing Line Loans”).  On or before 11:00 a.m., Applicable Time, on the third Business Day following
 

Ingram Micro/Credit Agreement

receipt by each Revolving Loan Lender of a request to make Revolving Loans as provided in the preceding sentence, each Lender shall deposit in an account specified by the Swing Line Lender the amount so requested in same day funds and such funds shall be applied by the Swing Line Lender to repay the Refunded Swing Line Loans.  At the time the Lenders make the above referenced Revolving Loans the Swing Line Lender shall be deemed to have made, in consideration of the making of the Refunded Swing Line Loans, Revolving Loans in an amount equal to the Swing Line Lender’s Percentage of the aggregate principal amount of the Refunded Swing Line Loans.  Upon the making (or deemed making, in the case of the Swing Line Lender) of any Revolving Loans pursuant to this clause, the amount so funded shall become an outstanding Revolving Loan and shall no longer be owed as a Swing Line Loan.  All interest payable with respect to any Revolving Loans made (or deemed made, in the case of the Swing Line Lender) pursuant to this clause shall be appropriately adjusted to reflect the period of time during which the Swing Line Lender had outstanding Swing Line Loans in respect of which such Revolving Loans were made.  Each Lender’s obligation to make the Revolving Loans referred to in this clause shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (i) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Lender may have against the Swing Line Lender, any Obligor or any Person for any reason whatsoever; (ii) the occurrence or continuance of any Default; (iii) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of any Obligor; (iv) the acceleration or maturity of any Obligations or the termination of any Commitment after the making of any Swing Line Loan; (v) any breach of any Loan Document by any Person; or (vi) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

SECTION 3.2.1  Other Lenders’ Participation.  Automatically, and without further action, upon the issuance of each Letter of Credit, each Lender (other than the Issuer of such Letter of Credit) shall be deemed to have irrevocably purchased from the relevant Issuer, to the extent of such Lender’s Percentage, a participation interest in such Letter of Credit (including any Reimbursement Obligation and any other Contingent Liability with respect thereto), and such Lender shall, to the extent of its Percentage, be responsible for reimbursing promptly (and in any event within one Business Day after receipt of demand for payment from the Issuer, together with accrued interest from the day of such demand) the relevant Issuer for any Reimbursement Obligation which has not been reimbursed in accordance with Section 3.2.3.  In addition, such Lender shall, to the extent of its Percentage, be entitled to receive a ratable portion of the Letter of Credit participation fee payable pursuant to clause (a) of Section 4.3.3 with respect to each Letter of Credit and a ratable portion of any interest payable pursuant to Sections 3.2.2 and 4.2.
 
SECTION 3.2.2  Disbursements.  Subject to the terms and provisions of each Letter of Credit and this Agreement, upon presentment under any Letter of Credit to the Issuer thereof for payment, such Issuer shall make such payment to the beneficiary (or its designee) of such Letter of Credit on the date designated for such payment (the “Disbursement Date”).  Such Issuer will promptly notify the relevant Borrower and each of the Lenders of the presentment for payment of any such Letter of Credit, together with notice of the Disbursement Date thereof.  Prior to 12:00 noon, Applicable Time, on the next Business Day following the Disbursement Date, the relevant Borrower will reimburse the Administrative Agent, for the account of such Issuer, for all amounts disbursed under such Letter of Credit, together with all interest accrued thereon since the Disbursement Date.  To the extent the Administrative Agent does not receive payment in full, on behalf of the relevant Issuer on the Disbursement Date, the relevant Borrower’s Reimbursement Obligation shall accrue interest, payable on demand, at an annual rate equal to the Reference Rate through the first Business Day following the Disbursement Date and equal to the sum of the Reference Rate plus 0.50% thereafter.  In the event the relevant Borrower fails to notify the Administrative Agent and the relevant Issuer prior to 1:00 p.m., Applicable Time, on the Disbursement Date that the relevant Borrower intends to pay the Administrative Agent, for the account of such Issuer, for the amount of such drawing with funds other than proceeds of Loans, or the Administrative Agent does not receive such reimbursement payment from the relevant Borrower prior to 1:00 p.m., Applicable Time, on the Disbursement Date (or if the relevant Issuer must for any reason return or disgorge such reimbursement), the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders, and the relevant Borrower shall be deemed to have given a timely Borrowing Request as of the Disbursement Date for Loans in an aggregate principal amount equal to such Reimbursement Obligation and the Lenders (other than the relevant Issuer) shall, on the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement (including, without limitation, Sections 6.1 and 6.2), make Loans in the amount of such Reimbursement Obligation as provided in Section 3.1; provided that for the purpose of determining the availability of any unused Total Commitment Amount immediately prior to giving effect to the application of the proceeds of such Loans, such Reimbursement Obligation shall be deemed not to be outstanding at such time.  In the event that the conditions precedent to any Loans deemed requested by the relevant Borrower as provided in the preceding sentence shall not be satisfied at the time of such deemed request, each Lender (including the relevant Issuer) shall pay to the Administrative Agent, as funding of its participation interest pursuant to Section 3.2.1 in the related Letter of Credit, its Percentage of the related Reimbursement Obligation, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the relevant Issuer the amounts so received by it from the Lenders.  If a Lender makes a payment pursuant to this
 

Ingram Micro/Credit Agreement
 
39

 
 
subsection to reimburse an Issuer in respect of any Reimbursement Obligation (other than by funding Loans as contemplated above), (i) such payment will not constitute a Loan and will not relieve the relevant Borrower of its Reimbursement Obligation and (ii) such Lender will be subrogated to its pro rata share of the relevant Issuer’s claim against such Borrower for payment of such Reimbursement Obligation.
 
SECTION 3.2.3  Reimbursement.  The obligation (the “Reimbursement Obligation”) of the relevant Borrower under Section 3.2.2 to reimburse the relevant Issuer with respect to each disbursement under a Letter of Credit (including interest thereon), and, upon the failure of the relevant Borrower to reimburse such Issuer, the obligation of each Lender to reimburse such Issuer, shall be absolute and unconditional under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any set-off, counterclaim or defense to payment which the relevant Borrower or such Lender, as the case may be, may have or have had against the relevant Issuer or any Lender, including any defense based upon the failure of any disbursement under a Letter of Credit to conform to the terms of the applicable Letter of Credit (if, in the relevant Issuer’s good faith opinion, such disbursement is determined to be appropriate) or any non-application or misapplication by the beneficiary of the proceeds of such Letter of Credit; provided that nothing herein shall require the relevant Borrower or such Lender, as the case may be, to reimburse an Issuer for any wrongful disbursement made by such Issuer under a Letter of Credit as a result of acts or omissions finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of such Issuer.
 
SECTION 3.2.4  Deemed Disbursements.  Upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any Event of Default of the type described in Section 9.1.8 or, with notice from the Administrative Agent given at the direction of the Required Lenders, upon the occurrence and during the continuation of any other Event of Default, an amount equal to the then aggregate amount of all Letters of Credit which are undrawn and available under all issued and outstanding Letters of Credit shall, without demand upon or notice to any Borrower, be deemed to have been paid or disbursed by the Issuer under such Letters of Credit (notwithstanding that such amount may not in fact have been so paid or disbursed) and the Borrowers shall be immediately obligated to pay to the Issuer of each Letter of Credit an amount equal to such amount.  Any amounts so payable by the relevant Borrower pursuant to Section 3.2.4 shall be deposited in cash with the Administrative Agent and held in trust (for the sole benefit of the relevant Issuer and the Lenders) for payment of the Obligations arising in connection with such Letters of Credit.  If such Event of Default shall have been cured or waived (provided that no other Default has occurred and is continuing and the Obligations have not been accelerated pursuant to Section 9.2 or 9.3), the Administrative Agent shall promptly return to the relevant Borrower all amounts deposited by it with the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 3.2.4 (together with accrued interest thereon at the Administrative Agent’s Cost of Funds or such other interest rate based upon a cash equivalent investment (in the form of obligations issued by or guaranteed by the U.S. government, commercial paper of a domestic corporation rated A-1 by S&P or a comparable rating from another nationally recognized rating agency or certificates of deposit of a U.S. or Canadian bank with (x) a credit rating of Aa or better by S&P or a comparable rating from another nationally recognized rating agency and (y) a combined capital and surplus greater than $250,000,000) which is agreed to between the relevant Issuer and the relevant Borrower), net of any amount (which may include accrued interest) applied to the payment of any Obligations with respect to the Letters of Credit.

SECTION 3.2.5  Nature of Reimbursement Obligations.  Each Borrower and, to the extent set forth in Section 3.2.1, each Lender shall assume all risks of the acts, omission or misuse of any Letter of Credit by the beneficiary thereof.  No Issuer or any Lender (except to the extent of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction) shall be responsible for:
 
(a)           the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any document submitted by any party in connection with the application for an issuance of a Letter of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged;
 
(b)           the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or the proceeds thereof in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason;
 
(c)           failure of the beneficiary to comply fully with conditions required in order to demand payment under a Letter of Credit; provided that if a payment is made pursuant to such Letter of Credit when a beneficiary has failed to comply with the conditions therefor and such failure to comply is manifest on the face of such Letter of Credit or the documents submitted by the beneficiary in connection therewith, the relevant Borrower shall be required to indemnify the Issuer in connection therewith only if, and to the extent, the relevant Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries has received the benefit of such payment on such Letter of Credit by one or more of their obligations being satisfied, either in whole or in part;
 
(d)           errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, telecopy or otherwise; or
 
(e)           any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document or draft required in order to make a disbursement under a Letter of Credit.
 
None of the foregoing shall affect, impair or prevent the vesting of any of the rights or powers granted to any Issuer or any Lender hereunder.  In furtherance and extension and not in limitation or derogation of any of the foregoing (but subject to the limitations set forth in clause (c) above), any action taken or omitted to be taken by an Issuer in good faith (and not constituting gross negligence or willful misconduct as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction) shall be binding upon the relevant Borrower and each Lender, and shall not put such Issuer under any resulting liability to any Borrower or any Lender.
 
SECTION 3.2.6  Ineligible Currencies.  Notwithstanding any other provision contained in this Agreement, if, at any time prior to the Commitment Termination Date, the Administrative Agent determines that the Available Currency in which a Letter of Credit has been issued is an Ineligible Currency, then the Administrative Agent may (in its sole discretion) at any time notify the relevant Borrower of the same, and the Administrative Agent shall then promptly notify each other Lender.  Such relevant Borrower shall use reasonable efforts to cause the beneficiary of such
 

Ingram Micro/Credit Agreement
 
41

 
 
Letter of Credit to accept a substitution for such Letter of Credit with another Letter of Credit in an Available Currency acceptable to such Borrower and the relevant Issuer.
 
SECTION 3.2.7  Existing Letters of Credit.  On the Effective Date, the Existing Letters of Credit shall automatically and without any action on the part of any Person, become Letters of Credit hereunder issued, in each case, for the account of the relevant Borrower identified on Schedule II.
 
SECTION 3.3  Amendment and Extension.  (a) The Borrowers may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent from time to time, request an extension (each, an “Extension”) of the maturity or termination date of Commitments and/or Term Loans (if any) to the extended maturity or termination date specified in such notice.  Such notice shall (i) set forth the amount of the applicable Commitments and/or Term Loans to be extended (ii) set forth the date on which such Extension is requested to become effective and (iii) identify the relevant Commitments and/or Term Loans to which the Extension request relates.  Each applicable Lender shall be offered (an “Extension Offer”) an opportunity to participate in such Extension on a pro rata basis and on the same terms and conditions as each other Lender of the same class pursuant to procedures established by, or reasonably acceptable to, the Administrative Agent.  Each Lender may elect to participate in any Extension in its sole and absolute discretion, provided that any Lender that does not respond to an Extension Offer shall be deemed to have declined its participation in such Extension.  If the aggregate principal amount of Commitments or Term Loans (calculated on the face amount thereof) in respect of which Lenders shall have accepted the relevant Extension Offer shall exceed the maximum aggregate principal amount of Commitments or Term Loans, as applicable, offered to be extended by the Borrowers pursuant to such Extension Offer, then the Commitments or Term Loans, as applicable, of Lenders of the applicable class shall be extended ratably up to such maximum amount based on the respective principal amounts with respect to which such Lenders have accepted such Extension Offer (but in no event to exceed the Commitments or Term Loans held by such Lender).
 
(a)           It shall be a condition precedent to the effectiveness of any Extension that (i) clauses (a) and (c) of Section 6.2.1 shall be satisfied immediately prior to and immediately after giving effect to such Extension, (ii) the Issuer and the Swing Line Lender shall have consented to any Extension of the Commitments, to the extent that such extension provides for the issuance of Letters of Credit or the making of Swing Line Loans at any time during the extended period and (iii) the terms of such extended Commitments and/or extended Term Loans shall comply with Section 3.3(c).
 
(b)           The terms of each Extension shall be determined by the Borrowers and the applicable extending Lender; provided that (i) the final maturity date of any extended Commitment or extended Term Loan shall be no earlier than the maturity or termination date of the Commitments or Term Loans being extended, (ii)(A) there shall be no scheduled amortization of the extended Commitments and (B) the weighted average life to maturity of the extended Term Loans shall be no shorter than the remaining weighted average life to maturity of the Term Loans being extended, (iii) the extended Revolving Loans and the extended Term Loans will rank pari passu in right of payment with the existing Revolving Loans and none of the obligors or guarantors with respect thereto shall be a Person that is not an Obligor, (iv) the interest rate margin, rate floors, fees, original issue discounts and premiums applicable to any extended Term Loans or extended
 

Ingram Micro/Credit Agreement
 
42

 
 
Commitments (and the extended Revolving Loans thereunder) shall be determined by the Borrowers and the Lenders providing such extended Term Loans or extended Commitments, as applicable and (v) to the extent the terms of the extended Term Loans or the extended Commitments are inconsistent with any other terms set forth in this Agreement (for the avoidance of doubt, except as set forth in clauses (i) through (iv) above), such terms shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and such applicable extending Lender.
 
ARTICLE IV

(a)           the relevant Borrower may, from time to time on any Business Day, make a voluntary prepayment, in whole or in part, of the outstanding principal amount of any Revolving Loan; provided that:
 
(i)           any such prepayment of any Revolving Loan shall be allocated to each Lender pro rata according to such Lender’s Percentage of the Revolving Loans so prepaid;
 
(ii)          any such prepayment of any Revolving Loan made on any day other than the last day of the Interest Period then applicable to such Revolving Loan shall be subject to Section 5.4;
 
(iii)         all such voluntary prepayments shall require prior notice to the Administrative Agent of at least three but no more than five Business Days; and
 
(iv)         all such voluntary prepayments shall, if other than a prepayment in whole, be in an aggregate minimum amount of $5,000,000 and an integral multiple of $1,000,000;
 
(b)           the relevant Borrower may, from time to time on any Business Day, make a voluntary prepayment, in whole or in part, of the outstanding principal amount of any Swing Line Loan; provided that:

(ii)          all such voluntary partial prepayments shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of $500,000 (or the then outstanding principal amount of Swing Line Loans, if less) and an integral multiple of $100,000 (or the then outstanding principal amount of Swing Line Loans, if less).

(d)           Micro shall (and shall cause the other relevant Borrowers to), on each date when any reduction or termination in the Total Commitment Amount shall become effective, including pursuant to Section 2.2, make a mandatory prepayment of all Revolving Loans equal to the excess, if any, of the then aggregate Outstanding Credit Extensions of all the Lenders over the Total Commitment Amount as so reduced, such prepayment to be allocated to the Lenders in the manner set forth in clause (a)(i) above.
 
SECTION 4.1.2  Change in Control.  Promptly, and in any event within two Business Days, following a Change in Control or, in the case of a “Change in Control” of the type described in clause (a) of such definition, within two Business Days following the date on which Micro or any other Obligor is provided with the relevant Schedule 13D or Schedule 13G filing, Micro shall provide notice (a “Change in Control Notice”) thereof to the Administrative Agent (which the Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to the Lenders) which notice shall (i) describe such event in reasonable detail and (ii) offer to prepay all outstanding Loans of each Lender and cash collateralize all outstanding Letters of Credit of each Issuer, which prepayment or cash collateralization shall occur (referred to as the “Settlement Date”) on or before the 30th Business Day following such Change in Control Notice.  In such Change in Control Notice, Micro may request that the Lenders waive such right to prepayment (or, in the case of any Issuers, such right of cash collateralization) and continue as a Lender (or Issuer, as the case may be) hereunder.  Any Lenders or Issuers which, in their sole and absolute discretion, determine to continue in such capacities hereunder (by notice to Micro no later than the 10th Business Day before such Settlement Date) shall continue to provide loans and letters of credit in an amount equal to their respective Commitment and Letter of Credit Commitment, as in effect immediately prior to such Change in Control.  Lenders or Issuers that do not consent to continue as Lenders or Issuers, as the case may be, hereunder shall have all their respective commitments cancelled, regardless of the percentage of consenting Lenders and all such Lenders outstanding Loans shall be repaid, and all
 

Ingram Micro/Credit Agreement
 
44

 
 
their respective Letter of Credit Obligations shall be cash collateralized no later than the Settlement Date.  On or promptly following the Settlement Date, the Administrative Agent shall distribute to the Borrowers and the Lenders a schedule of the Percentages after giving effect to the foregoing.  The resulting Commitments of any Lenders agreeing to waive its right of prepayment following a Change in Control shall be binding on such Lender, notwithstanding that the previously existing Total Commitment Amount may have been reduced as a result of the foregoing terms.

SECTION 4.2.1  Rates.  Subject to Sections 4.2.2 and 5.1, each Revolving Loan shall bear an annual rate of interest, during each Interest Period applicable thereto, equal to the sum of (i) the LIBO Rate for such Interest Period, plus (ii) the Applicable Margin, plus (iii) Mandatory Costs (if any); provided that, Swing Line Loans shall accrue interest at an annual rate equal to the sum of (a) the greater of (x) the Swing Line Lender’s Cost of Funds and (y) the one-month LIBO Rate, plus (b) in the case of either clause (x) or (y), the then effective Applicable Margin for LIBO Rate Loans.
 
SECTION 4.2.2  Post-Maturity Rates.  After the date any principal amount of any Loan is due and payable (whether at Maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise), or after any other monetary Obligation of Micro or any other Borrower shall have become due and payable, Micro or each such other Borrower shall pay, but only to the extent permitted by law, interest (after as well as before judgment) on such amounts at an annual rate equal to the Reference Rate plus 2%.

(c)           in the case of LIBO Rate Loans, on the last day of each applicable Interest Period (and, if such Interest Period shall exceed three months, on each three month anniversary of the date of the commencement of such Interest Period); and
 
(d)           on that portion of any Loans which is accelerated pursuant to Section 9.2 or 9.3, immediately upon such acceleration.

SECTION 4.2.6  Additional Interest on Loans.  For so long as the cost to a Lender of making or maintaining its LIBO Rate Loans is increased as a result of any imposition or modification after the date of this Agreement of any reserve required to be maintained by such Lender against Eurocurrency Liabilities (or any other category of liabilities which includes deposits by reference to which the interest rate on Loans is determined or any category of extensions of credit or other assets which includes loans by a non-United States office of such Lender to United States residents but not duplicating any requirement included in the calculation of Mandatory Costs), then such Lender may require the relevant Borrower to pay, contemporaneously with each payment of interest on any of its LIBO Rate Loans, additional interest on such Loan of such Lender at a rate per annum up to but not exceeding the excess of (i) (A) the applicable LIBO Rate divided by (B) one minus the LIBOR Reserve Percentage over (ii) the applicable LIBO Rate.  Any Lender wishing to require payment of such additional interest shall so notify Micro and the Administrative Agent (which notice shall set forth the amount (as determined by such Lender) to which such Lender is then entitled under this Section 4.2.6 (which amount shall be consistent with such Lender’s good faith estimate of the level at which the related reserves are maintained by it and which determination shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent demonstrable error) and shall be accompanied by such information as to the computation set forth therein as Micro may reasonably request), in which case such additional interest on the LIBO Rate Loans of such Lender shall be payable on the last day of each Interest Period thereafter (commencing with the Interest Period beginning at least three Business Days after the giving of such notice) to such Lender at the place indicated in such notice.  Each Lender that receives any payment in respect of increased costs pursuant to this Section 4.2.6 shall

promptly notify Micro of any change with respect to such costs which affects the amount of additional interest payable pursuant to this section in respect thereof.
 
SECTION 4.3  Fees.  Each Borrower agrees to pay the fees applicable to it set forth in this Section 4.3.  All such fees shall be nonrefundable and shall be paid in Dollars to the Administrative Agent, each Lender or the relevant Issuer, as the case may be, at its office specified for such purpose on the signature pages hereof.
 
SECTION 4.3.1  Administration Fees.  Coordination Center, Ingram Lux and Micro, jointly and severally, agree to pay directly to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, an annual administration fee in the amounts and on the dates set forth in the Fee Letter.
 
SECTION 4.3.2  Commitment Fees.  The Initial Borrowers, jointly and severally, agree to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender (including, any portion thereof when the Lenders may not extend any Credit Extensions by reason of the inability of the Borrowers to satisfy any condition of Section 6.1 or 6.2), for each day during the period commencing on the FirstSecond Amendment Effective Date until but excluding the Commitment Termination Date, a commitment fee (the “Commitment Fee”) to each Lender on the unused portion of its Credit Commitment Amount on such day at the rate per annum determined in accordance with the following procedure; provided that for each day during the period commencing on the FirstSecond Amendment Effective Date and continuing through and including the six month anniversary of the FirstSecond Amendment Effective Date, the Commitment Fee shall be not lower than the rate set forth in Pricing Level III; provided further that, the making of Swing Line Loans shall not constitute usage of the Commitment for purposes of calculating Commitment Fees to be paid by the Borrowers to the Lenders:
 
(1)           If the Pricing Level set forth opposite the Leverage Ratio is the same as the Pricing Level set forth opposite the applicable Credit Rating, then the Commitment Fee for that Pricing Level shall be the Commitment Fee.
 
(2)           If the Pricing Level set forth opposite the Leverage Ratio differs by one Pricing Level from the Pricing Level set forth opposite the applicable Credit Rating, then the Commitment Fee for the lower numbered Pricing Level of the two shall be the Commitment Fee.
 
(3)           If the Pricing Level set forth opposite the Leverage Ratio differs by more than one Pricing Level from the Pricing Level set forth opposite the applicable Credit Rating, then the Commitment Fee shall be determined by reference to the Pricing Level that is numerically one Pricing Level below the higher numbered of the two applicable Pricing Levels.

Such Commitment Fee shall be determined from time to time by the Administrative Agent and shall be payable by the Initial Borrowers in arrears on each Quarterly Payment Date and on the Commitment Termination Date.  If the Credit Ratings assigned by S&P and Moody’s fall into different Pricing Levels, then the applicable Pricing Level shall be determined by reference to the lower of the two Credit Ratings.
 
Subject to Section 4.4, the applicable Leverage Ratio shall be the Leverage Ratio for the Fiscal Period most recently ended prior to such day for which financial statements and reports have been received by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 8.1.1(a) or (b), as set forth in (and effective upon delivery by Micro to the Administrative Agent of) the related new Compliance Certificate pursuant to Section 8.1.1(d).
 
Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) for so long as an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing the applicable Pricing Level shall be Level VIV and (b) if Micro shall fail to deliver a Compliance Certificate required to be delivered pursuant to Section 8.1.1(d) within 60 days after the end of any of its fiscal quarters (or within 90 days, in the case of the last fiscal quarter of its Fiscal Year), the applicable Pricing Level from and including the 61st (or 91st, as the case may be) day after the end of such fiscal quarter (or Fiscal Year, as the case may be) to but not including the date Micro delivers to the Administrative Agent a quarterly Compliance Certificate shall be Level VIV.
 
SECTION 4.3.3  Letter of Credit Fees.
 
(a)           The applicable Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender (including the relevant Issuer) a Letter of Credit participation fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) equal to each Lender’s Percentage of the average daily Stated Amount of each Letter of Credit during the applicable period multiplied by the Applicable Margin then in effect for LIBO Rate Loans.  Such participation fee shall accrue from the date of issuance of any Letter of Credit until the date such Letter of Credit is drawn in full or terminated, and shall be payable in arrears on each Quarterly Payment Date and on the date that the Commitments terminate in their entirety.
 

Ingram Micro/Credit Agreement

(b)           The applicable Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuer of each Letter of Credit a Letter of Credit fronting fee at the rate set forth in the Fee Letter (or, in the case of an Issuer other than Scotiabank, as separately agreed between Micro and such Issuer) during the applicable period, such fee to be payable for the account of the relevant Issuer in quarterly installments in arrears on each Quarterly Payment Date and on the date that the Commitments terminate in their entirety.  Micro agrees to reimburse each Issuer, on demand, for all usual out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the issuance or maintenance of any Letter of Credit issued by such Issuer.
 
(c)           The Administrative Agent shall pay to each Lender and each Issuer fees paid for its account under clause (a) or (b) above promptly after receipt by the Administrative Agent.
 
SECTION 4.4  Rate and Fee Determinations.  Interest on each Loan shall be computed on the basis of a year consisting of 360 days (or 365 or 366, as the case may be, for Loans denominated in Sterling) and fees shall be computed on the basis of a year consisting of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, in each case paid for the actual number of days elapsed, calculated as to each period from and including the first day thereof to but excluding the last day thereof.  All determinations by the Administrative Agent of the rate of interest payable with respect to any Loan shall be conclusive and binding in the absence of demonstrable error.  The Borrowers acknowledge that the Lenders have agreed to the amount of the Applicable Margin and Commitment and Letter of Credit fees payable under the Loan Documents based upon, among other things, the delivery by the Obligors pursuant to Section 8.1.1 of accurate and actual reporting of results of operation, and that the financial covenant ratios set forth in a Compliance Certificate shall only be treated by the Lenders as presumptive evidence of such actual results.  If the actual Leverage Ratio for any period is higher than that set forth in a Compliance Certificate for such period, then the amount of interest and Commitment and Letter of Credit fees owing for such period shall be established by reference to the actual Leverage Ratio , and not the ratio set forth in the Compliance Certificate.  Promptly, and in any event within thirty days, following the earlier of (i) any Borrower’s receipt of a notice from the Administrative Agent pursuant to this clause or (ii) any Borrower’s knowledge that the Leverage Ratio for a particular period was higher than that reported in the Compliance Certificate for such period, the Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent all unpaid interest and Commitment and Letter of Credit fees for such period based upon the actual Leverage Ratio.  In no event shall the Lenders be required to rebate interest or Commitment and Letter of Credit fees paid by any Borrower, and the payment of incremental interest and fees pursuant to this clause shall not impair (and is without limitation of) the other rights and remedies of the Lenders under the Loan Documents.

CERTAIN PAYMENT PROVISIONS
 
SECTION 5.1  Illegality; Currency Restrictions.
 
(a)           If, as the result of any Regulatory Change, any Lender shall determine (which determination shall, in the absence of demonstrable error, be conclusive and binding on
 

Ingram Micro/Credit Agreement
 
49

 
 
each Borrower), that it is unlawful for such Lender to make any Loan, issue any Letter of Credit, or continue any Loan previously made by it hereunder in respect of the LIBO Rate, as the case may be, the obligations of such Lender to make any such Loan, issue any such Letter of Credit, or continue any such Loan in respect of the LIBO Rate, as the case may be, shall, upon the giving of notice thereof to the Administrative Agent, Micro, and any other applicable Borrower, forthwith be suspended and each applicable Borrower shall, if requested by such Lender and if required by such Regulatory Change, on such date as shall be specified in such notice, prepay to such Lender in full all of such Loans or convert all of such Loans into a Cost of Funds Rate Loan that is not unlawful, in each case on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto (unless otherwise required by applicable law) and without any penalty whatsoever (but subject to Section 5.4); provided that such Lender shall make as Cost of Funds Loans all Loans that such Lender would otherwise be obligated to make Loans at the LIBO Rate and convert into or continue as Cost of Funds Loans all Loans that such Lender would otherwise be required to convert into or continue as Loans at the LIBO Rate, in each case during the period any such suspension is effective.  Such suspension shall continue to be effective until such Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent and Micro that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist, at which time the obligations of such Lender to make any such Loan, issue any Letter of Credit, or continue any Loan, as the case may be, shall be reinstated.
 
(b)           If any central bank or other governmental authorization in the country of the proposed Available Currency of any proposed Loan is required to permit the use of such Available Currency by a Lender (through its Lending Office) for such Loan and such authorization has not been obtained (provided that such Lender has used reasonable endeavors to obtain such authorization) or is not in full force and effect, the obligation of such Lender to provide such Loans shall be suspended so long as such authorization is required and has not been obtained by such Lender.
 
SECTION 5.2  Deposits Unavailable.
 
(a)           If, before the date on which all or any portion of any Revolving Loan bearing interest in respect of the LIBO Rate is to be made, maintained, or continued the Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding), with respect to that Loan that:
 
(i)           deposits in the relevant amount and the relevant Available Currency and for the relevant Interest Period are available, if and when applicable, to none of the Reference Lenders in the relevant market, or
 
(ii)          by reason of circumstances affecting the London interbank market adequate means do not exist for ascertaining the interest rate applicable under this Agreement in respect of the relevant LIBO Rate,
 
then, upon notice from the Administrative Agent to Micro and the Lenders, the obligations of the Lenders to make or continue any Loan bearing interest in respect of the LIBO Rate in such Available Currency under Sections 3.1 and 4.2.3 shall forthwith be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify Micro and the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist.
 

Ingram Micro/Credit Agreement
 
50

 
 
(b)           If a notification under this Section 5.2 applies to a Loan which is outstanding and that is not going to be converted at the end of its Interest Period to another Available Currency for which the LIBO Rate is available, then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement:
 
(i)           within five Business Days of receipt of the notification, the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent shall enter into negotiations for a period of not more than 30 days with a view to agreeing an alternative basis for determining the rate of interest and/or funding applicable to that Loan at the end of its applicable Interest Period;
 
(ii)          any alternative basis agreed under clause (i) above shall be, with the prior consent of all the Lenders, binding on all of the Obligors and Lender Parties;
 
(iii)         if no alternative basis is agreed, each Lender shall (through the Administrative Agent) certify on or before the last day of the Interest Period to which the notification relates an alternative basis for maintaining its participation in that Loan;
 
(iv)         any such alternative basis may include an alternative method of fixing the interest rate, alternative Interest Periods or alternative currencies but it must reflect the cost to the Lender of funding its participation in the Loan from whatever sources it may select plus the Applicable Margin; and
 
(v)          each alternative basis so certified shall be binding on the Obligors and the certifying Lender and treated as part of this Agreement.
 
SECTION 5.3  Increased Credit Extension Costs, etc.  Each Borrower agrees to reimburse each Lender within 30 days after any demand for any increase in the cost to such Lender of, or any reduction in the amount of any sum receivable by such Lender in respect of, making, maintaining, participating, issuing or extending (or of its obligation to make, maintain, participate, issue or extend) any Credit Extension to the extent such increased cost or reduced amount is due to a Regulatory Change.  Such Lender shall provide to the Administrative Agent and the relevant Borrower a certificate stating, in reasonable detail, the reasons for such increased cost or reduced amount and the additional amount required fully to compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduced amount.  Such additional amounts shall be payable by the relevant Borrower directly to such Lender upon its receipt of such notice, and such notice shall be rebuttable, presumptive evidence of the additional amounts so owing.  In determining such amount, such Lender shall act reasonably and in good faith and may use any method of averaging and attribution that it customarily uses for its other borrowers with a similar credit rating as Micro.  Such Lender may demand reimbursement for such increased cost or reduced amount only for the 360-day period immediately preceding the date of such written notice, and such Borrower shall have liability only for such period; provided that if such Regulatory Change giving rise to such increased cost is retroactive, then the 360-day period referred to in the previous clause shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof, but in any case, not prior to the date such Lender became a party to this Agreement.
 

Ingram Micro/Credit Agreement

SECTION 5.4  Funding Losses.  If any Lender shall incur any loss or expense (including any loss or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to make, continue, or extend any portion of the principal amount of any LIBO Rate Loan) as a result of:
 
(a)           any repayment or prepayment of the principal amount of any LIBO Rate Loan on a date other than the scheduled last day of the Interest Period whether pursuant to Section 4.1.1 or otherwise;
 
(b)           any conversion of the currency of any LIBO Rate Loan on a date other than the scheduled last day of the Interest Period; or
 
(c)           any LIBO Rate Loan not being made, continued, or converted in accordance with the Credit Extension Request therefor in the case of any Credit Extension Request as a consequence of any action taken, or failed to be taken, by any Obligor,
 
then, upon the written notice of such Lender to the relevant Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), such Borrower shall, within five days of its receipt thereof, pay directly to such Lender such amount as will (in the reasonable determination of such Lender) reimburse such Lender for such loss or expense.  Such written notice (which shall include calculations in reasonable detail) shall be rebuttable presumptive evidence of the amount of any such loss or expense that has been so incurred.
 
SECTION 5.5  Increased Capital Costs.  If any Regulatory Change affects or would affect the amount of capital or liquidity required or expected to be maintained by any Lender or any Person controlling such Lender, and such Lender determines (in its sole and absolute discretion) that the rate of return on its or such controlling Person’s capital as a consequence of its participation in this Agreement or the making, continuing, converting, participating in or extending of any Credit Extension is reduced to a level below that which such Lender or such controlling Person could have achieved but for the occurrence of any such circumstance, then, in any such case, upon the relevant Borrower’s receipt of written notice thereof from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), such Borrower shall pay directly to such Lender additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender or such controlling Person for such reduction in rate of return.  A statement of such Lender as to any such additional amounts (including calculations thereof in reasonable detail) shall be rebuttable, presumptive evidence of the additional amounts so owing.  In determining such amount, such Lender may use any method of averaging and attribution that it shall deem applicable.  Such Lender may demand payment for such additional amounts that have accrued only during the 360-day period immediately preceding the date of such written notice and such Borrower shall have liability only for such period; provided that, if such Regulatory Change giving rise to such reduced rate of return is retroactive, then the 360-day period referred to in the previous clause shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof, but in any case, not prior to the date such Lender became a party to this Agreement.
 
SECTION 5.6  Discretion of Lenders as to Manner of Funding.  Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Lenders shall be entitled to fund and maintain their funding of all or any part of their Loans and other Credit Extensions in any manner they elect, it
 

Ingram Micro/Credit Agreement
 
52

 
 
being understood, however, that for the purposes of this Agreement all determinations hereunder with respect to a Loan shall be made as if each Lender had actually funded and maintained each Loan through its Lending Office and through the purchase of deposits having a maturity corresponding to the maturity of such Loan.  Any Lender may, if it so elects, fulfill any commitment or obligation to make or maintain Loans or other Credit Extensions by causing a branch or affiliate to make or maintain such Loans or other Credit Extensions; provided that, in such event, such Loans or other Credit Extensions shall be deemed for the purposes of this Agreement to have been made by such Lender through its applicable Lending Office, and the obligation of a Borrower to repay such Loans shall nevertheless be to such Lender at its Lending Office and shall be deemed held by such Lender through its applicable Lending Office, to the extent of such Loan, for the account of such branch or affiliate.  Notwithstanding the foregoing or the fact that different Affiliates for a Lender under this Agreement may have executed this Agreement or the Lender Assignment Agreement by which it has become a Lender under this Agreement, all of those Lending Offices and signatories shall be treated under the Loan Documents as but one Lender for purposes of calculations of Percentage, Commitment, Required Lenders, and modifications, amendments, waivers, consents, and approvals under Section 11.1 and other provisions of the Loan Documents.
 
SECTION 5.7  Taxes.
 
(a)           All payments by any Obligor of principal of, and interest and fees on, any Credit Extension and all other amounts payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any present or future income, excise, stamp or franchise taxes, and other taxes, fees, duties, withholdings, or other charges of any nature whatsoever imposed by any taxing authority with respect to such payments, but excluding (i) franchise taxes and taxes imposed on or measured by any Lender Party’s gross or net income, profits, or receipts, in each case imposed (A) by any taxing authority under the laws of which such Lender Party is organized or in which it maintains its applicable Lending Office or (B) by reason of a present or former connection between the jurisdiction imposing such tax and such Lender Party or one of its applicable lending offices other than a connection arising solely from such Lender Party having executed, delivered or performed its obligations under, or received payment under or enforced, this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents; (ii) taxes imposed under FATCA and (iii) in the case of a Lender Party, U.S. federal withholding taxes imposed on amounts payable to or for the account of such Lender Party with respect to an applicable interest in the Credit Extension pursuant to a law in effect on the date on which (i) such Lender Party acquires such interest in the Credit Extension or (ii) such Lender Party changes its applicable Lending Office, except in each case to the extent that, pursuant to this Section 5.7, amounts with respect to such taxes were payable either to such Lender Party’s assignor immediately before such Lender Party became a party hereto or to such Lender Party immediately before it changed its applicable Lending Office (such non-excluded items being called “Taxes”) except to the extent required by law.  In the event that any withholding or deduction from any payment to be made by any Obligor hereunder is required in respect of any Taxes pursuant to any applicable law, rule, or regulation, then such Obligor will:
 

Ingram Micro/Credit Agreement
 
53

 
 
(i)           pay directly to the relevant authority the full amount required to be so withheld or deducted;
 
(ii)          promptly forward to the relevant Lender Party an official receipt or other documentation satisfactory to such Lender Party evidencing such payment to such authority; and
 
(iii)         pay directly to the relevant Lender Party for its own account such additional amount or amounts as is or are necessary to ensure that the net amount actually received by such Lender Party will equal the full amount such Lender Party would have received had no such withholding or deduction been required.
 
(b)           Moreover, if any Taxes are directly asserted against any Lender Party with respect to any payment received by such Lender Party hereunder, such Lender Party may pay such Taxes and the relevant Obligor will promptly pay such additional amounts (including any penalties, interest or expenses) as is necessary in order that the net amount received by such Lender Party after the payment of such Taxes (including any Taxes on such additional amount) shall equal the amount such Lender Party would have received had not such Taxes been asserted.
 
(c)           If the relevant Obligor fails to pay any Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to the relevant Lender Parties entitled thereto the required receipt or other required documentary evidence, such Obligor shall indemnify such Lender Parties for any incremental Taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by any Lender Party as a result of any such failure.
 
(d)           The following provisions govern exceptions to the tax indemnification provisions of this Section 5.7 and related matters.
 
(i)           In respect of its Credit Extensions to Micro, (A) each Lender Party organized under the laws of a jurisdiction outside the that is not a “United States person” within the meaning of Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code -- on or before the date of its execution and delivery of this Agreement (if an original signatory to this Agreement) or the date on which it otherwise becomes a Lender Party, on or before the date of any change in its Lending Office, and from time to time thereafter if requested in writing by Micro (but only so long as and to the extent that Lender Party remains lawfully able to do so) -- shall provide Micro and the Administrative Agent with one of the following: (I) two duly completed originals of either (1) Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E claiming eligibility of such Lender Party for the benefit of an exemption from United States withholding tax under an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party or (2) Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI, or in either case an applicable successor form; (II) in the case of a Lender Party who is not legally entitled to deliver either form listed in clause (i)(A) but is the beneficial owner of the Credit Extension, (1) a certificate to the effect that such Lender Party is not (x) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (y) a “10 percent shareholder” of the Obligor within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code or (z) a controlled foreign
 

Ingram Micro/Credit Agreement
 
54

 
 
corporation receiving interest from a related person within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code (such certificate an “Exemption Certificate”) and (2) two duly completed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E or applicable successor form; and (III) in the case of a Lender Party who is not the beneficial owner, two duly completed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY, accompanied by Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI, Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, an Exemption Certificate, Internal Revenue Service Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable and (B) each Lender Party who is a Non-Exempt U.S. Person, on or before the date of its execution and delivery of this Agreement (if an original signatory to this Agreement) or the date on which it becomes a Lender Party, on or before the date of any change in its Lending Office, and from time to time thereafter if requested in writing by Micro (but only so long as that Lender Party remains lawfully able to do so), shall provide Micro and the Administrative Agent with two duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9.
 
(ii)           A Lender Party is not entitled to indemnification under this Section 5.7 with respect to the applicable Taxes for any period during which the Lender Party has failed to provide Micro and the Administrative Agent with the applicable U.S. Internal Revenue Service form if required under clause (i) above or is unable, as a matter of law, to provide such a form (unless that failure or inability is due to a change in treaty, law, or regulation occurring after the date on which the applicable form originally was required to be provided or a redesignation of the Lender Party’s Lending Office at the request of the relevant Obligor) in respect of U.S. withholding taxes.
 
(iii)          Notwithstanding clause (ii) above to the contrary, if a Lender Party that is otherwise exempt from or subject to a reduced rate of withholding tax becomes subject to United States withholding tax because of its failure to deliver an Internal Revenue Service form required hereunder, then Micro shall take such steps as that Lender Party shall reasonably request to assist that Lender Party to recover the applicable withholding tax.
 
(e)           Any Lender Party that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to Micro and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by Micro or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by Micro as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding sentence, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 5.7(d) above) shall not be required if in the Lender Party’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender Party to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender Party.
 

Ingram Micro/Credit Agreement
 
55

 
 
(f)           If a payment made to a Lender Party under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender Party were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender Party shall deliver to Micro and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Micro or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Micro or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for Micro and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender Party has complied with such Lender Party’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment.  For purposes of determining withholding Taxes imposed under FATCA, from and after the Second Amendment Effective Date, Micro and the Administrative Agent shall treat (and the Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to treat) the Loans under the Agreement as not qualifying as a “grandfathered obligation” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1471-2(b)(2)(i).
 
(g)           Each Lender Party agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Obligor and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.
 
(h)           If any Obligor pays any additional amount under this Section 5.7 (a “Tax Payment”) and any Lender Party or Affiliate thereof effectively obtains a refund of Tax by reason of the Tax Payment (a “Tax Refund”) and such Tax Refund is, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender Party or Affiliate, attributable to the Tax Payment, then such Lender Party, after receipt of such Tax Refund, shall promptly reimburse such Obligor for such amount as such Lender Party shall reasonably determine to be the proportion of the Tax Refund as will leave such Lender Party (after that reimbursement) in no better or worse position than it would have been in if the Tax Payment had not been required; provided that no Lender Party shall be required to make any such reimbursement if it reasonably believes the making of such reimbursement would cause it to lose the benefit of the Tax Refund or would adversely affect in any other respect its tax position.  Subject to the other terms hereof, any claim by a Lender Party for a Tax Refund shall be made in a manner, order and amount as such Lender Party determines in its sole and absolute discretion.  No Lender Party shall be obligated to disclose information regarding its tax affairs or computations to any Obligor, it being understood and agreed that in no event shall any Lender Party be required to disclose information regarding its tax position that it deems to be confidential (other than with respect to the Tax Refund).
 
SECTION 5.8  Payments.  All payments by an Obligor pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, whether in respect of principal, interest, fees or otherwise, shall be made as set forth in this Section 5.8.

(a)           All payments by an Obligor (whether in respect of principal, interest, fees or otherwise) pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document with respect to Credit Extensions or any other amount payable hereunder shall be made by the relevant Borrower in the Available Currency in which the Obligation was denominated (the “Required Currency”).  All such payments (other than fees payable pursuant to Section 4.3, which fees shall be paid by the relevant Borrower to the Administrative Agent for the account of the relevant payee, Article V, Section 11.3 or 11.4) shall be made by the relevant Borrower to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender based upon its Percentage.  All such payments required to be made to the Administrative Agent shall be made, without set-off, deduction or counterclaim, not later than 1:00 p.m., Applicable Time, on the date when due, in same day or immediately available funds, to such account as the Administrative Agent shall specify from time to time by notice to the relevant Borrower.  Funds received after that time shall be deemed to have been received by the Administrative Agent on the next succeeding Business Day.  The Administrative Agent shall promptly remit in same day funds to each Lender its share, if any, of such payments received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender.  Whenever any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall, except as otherwise required pursuant to clause (d) of the definition of Interest Period, be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or fees, as the case may be.
 
(b)           In the case of any payment made pursuant to the preceding clause (a) by a Borrower to the Administrative Agent, unless the Administrative Agent will have received notice from that Borrower prior to the date on which any such payment is due hereunder that such Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Borrower has made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on such date and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due to such Lender.  If that Borrower shall not have so made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent, each Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand any such amount distributed to the Lender to the extent that such amount was not paid by that Borrower to the Administrative Agent together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until the date such Lender repays such amount to the Administrative Agent, at an annual rate equal to the Administrative Agent’s Cost of Funds.
 
SECTION 5.9  Sharing of Payments.
 
(a)           If any Lender Party shall obtain any payment or other recovery (whether voluntary, involuntary, by application of setoff or otherwise) on account of any Credit Extension or Reimbursement Obligation (other than pursuant to the terms of Sections 3.3, 5.3, 5.4, 5.5, 5.7 or 6.3) in excess of its pro rata share of payments obtained by all Lender Parties, such Lender Party shall purchase from the other Lender Parties such participations in Credit Extensions made by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender

Party to share the excess payment or other recovery ratably (to the extent such other Lender Parties were entitled to receive a portion of such payment or recovery) with each of them; provided, however, that if all or any portion of the excess payment or other recovery is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender Party, the purchase shall be rescinded and each Lender Party which has sold a participation to the purchasing Lender Party shall repay to the purchasing Lender Party the purchase price to the ratable extent of such recovery together with an amount equal to such selling Lender Party’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (a) the amount of such selling Lender Party’s required repayment to the purchasing Lender Party to (b) total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender Party) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender Party in respect of the total amount so recovered.
 
(b)           The Borrowers agree that any Lender Party purchasing a participation from another Lender Party pursuant to this Section 5.9 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of payment (including pursuant to Section 5.10) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender Party were the direct creditor of the relevant Borrower in the amount of such participation.  If under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law any Lender Party receives a secured claim in lieu of a setoff to which this Section 5.9 applies, such Lender Party shall, to the extent practicable, exercise its rights in respect of such secured claim in a manner consistent with the rights of the Lender Parties entitled under this Section 5.9 to share in the benefits of any recovery on such secured claim.
 
SECTION 5.10  Right of Set-off.  Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, each Lender Party is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all balances, credits, accounts, moneys or deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final but excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any payment received pursuant to this Agreement by the Administrative Agent in its capacity qua Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time due and owing by such Lender Party (in any currency and at any branch or office) to or for the credit or the account of any Obligor against any and all of the Obligations of such Obligor now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Loan Document that are at such time due and owing, irrespective of whether or not such Lender Party shall have made any demand under this Agreement or such other Loan Document (other than any notice expressly required hereby); provided that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.15 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Issuers, and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff.  The rights of each Lender Party under this Section 5.10 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of set-off) which such Lender Party may have.
 
SECTION 5.11  Judgments, Currencies, etc.  The obligation of each Obligor to make payment of all Obligations in the Required Currency shall not be discharged or satisfied by any

tender, or any recovery pursuant to any judgment, which is expressed in or converted into any currency other than the Required Currency, except to the extent such tender or recovery shall result in the actual receipt by the recipient at the office required hereunder of the full amount of the Required Currency expressed to be payable under this Agreement or any other Loan Document.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Obligor authorizes the Administrative Agent on any tender or recovery in a currency other than the Required Currency to purchase in accordance with normal banking procedures the Required Currency with the amount of such other currency so tendered or recovered.  The obligation of each Obligor to make payments in the Required Currency shall be enforceable as an alternative or additional cause of action for the purpose of recovery in the Required Currency of the amount (if any) by which such actual receipt shall fall short of the full amount of the Required Currency expressed to be payable under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and shall not be affected by judgment being obtained for any other sums due under this Agreement or such other Loan Document.
 
SECTION 5.12  Replacement of Lenders.  Each Lender hereby severally agrees that if such Lender (a “Subject Lender”) makes demand upon any Borrower for (or if any Borrower is otherwise required to pay) amounts pursuant to Section 4.2.6, 5.3, 5.5, or 5.7, if the obligation of such Lender to make Loans is suspended pursuant to Section 5.1(a) or if such Lender is a Defaulting Lender or a Non-Consenting Lender, any Borrower may, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, replace such Subject Lender with an Eligible Assignee pursuant to an assignment in accordance with Section 11.11.1 (and the Administrative Agent agrees to waive any applicable assignment fee in connection therewith); provided that (i) such Eligible Assignee shall be subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent and the Issuer as required by the definition of “Eligible Assignee”, (ii) the purchase price paid by such designated financial institution shall be in the amount of such Subject Lender’s Loans and its applicable Percentage of outstanding Reimbursement Obligations, together with all accrued and unpaid interest and fees in respect thereof, plus all other amounts (including the amounts demanded and unreimbursed under Sections 4.2.6, 5.3, 5.5, and 5.7), owing to such Subject Lender hereunder and (iii) in the case of any replacement of a Non-Consenting Lender, such Eligible Assignee shall have consented to the applicable consent, waiver or amendment.  Upon the effective date of such assignment, such designated financial institution shall become a Lender for all purposes under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
 
SECTION 5.13  Change of Lending Office.  If Micro or any other Obligor is required to pay additional amounts to or for the account of any Lender Party pursuant to Section 4.2.6, 5.3, 5.5, or 5.7, or if the obligation of any Lender to make or continue Loans is suspended pursuant to Section 5.1(a), then such Lender Party will change the jurisdiction of its Lending Office if, in the judgment of such Lender Party, such change (a) will eliminate or reduce any such additional payment which may thereafter accrue or will avoid such suspension and (b) is not otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender Party.
 
SECTION 5.14  European Monetary Union.  If and to the extent that any provision of this Section 5.14 relates to any state (or the currency of such state) that is not a Participating Member State on the Effective Date, such provision shall become effective in relation to such state (and the currency of such state) at and from the date on which such state becomes a Participating Member State.
 

Ingram Micro/Credit Agreement
 
59

 
 
(a)           An amount denominated in the National Currency Unit of a Participating Member State shall be redenominated into Euro in accordance with EMU Legislation and paid by the debtor either in the Euro Unit or in that National Currency Unit and an amount denominated in the Euro Unit shall be paid by the debtor in the Euro Unit unless EMU Legislation provides otherwise; provided, that if and to the extent that any EMU Legislation provides that an amount denominated either in the Euro or in the National Currency Unit of a Participating Member State and payable within the Participating Member State by crediting an account of the creditor can be paid by the debtor either in the Euro Unit or in that National Currency Unit, any party to this Agreement shall be entitled to pay or repay any such amount either in the Euro Unit or in such National Currency Unit.
 
(b)           If the basis of accrual of interest or fees expressed in this Agreement with respect to the currency of any state that is or becomes a Participating Member State shall be inconsistent with any convention or practice in the London, England interbank market for the basis of accrual of interest or fees in respect of the Euro, such convention or practice shall replace such expressed basis effective as of and from the date on which such state becomes a Participating Member State.
 
(c)           Without prejudice to the respective liabilities of each Borrower to the Lenders, the Issuer and the Administrative Agent under or pursuant to this Agreement, except as expressly provided in this clause (c), each provision of this Agreement shall be subject to such reasonable changes of construction as the Administrative Agent in consultation with Micro may from time to time specify to be necessary or appropriate to reflect the introduction of or changeover to the Euro in Participating Member States.
 
SECTION 5.15  Defaulting Lenders.
 
(a)           Defaulting Lender Adjustments.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law:
 
(i)           Waivers and Amendments.  Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of Required Lenders.
 
(ii)           Defaulting Lender Waterfall.  Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender hereunder (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article IX or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 5.10 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to any Issuer or the Swing Line Lender hereunder; third, to Cash Collateralize the Issuers’ Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with Section 5.16; fourth, as the Borrowers may request (so

long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (y) Cash Collateralize the Issuers’ future Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement, in accordance with Section 5.16; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the Issuers or the Swing Line Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, the Issuers or the Swing Line Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to any Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by such Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or Reimbursement Obligations in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 6.2 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and Reimbursement Obligations owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or Reimbursement Obligations owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letter of Credit Outstandings and Swing Line Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Commitments without giving effect to Section 5.15(a)(iv). Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 5.15(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.
 
(iii)           Certain Fees.  (A) No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any Commitment Fee for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrowers shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender).
 
(B)           Each Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive Letter of Credit Fees for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to the extent allocable to its Percentage of the stated amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 5.16.
 
(C)           With respect to any Letter of Credit Fee not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (B) above, the relevant Borrower shall (x) pay to each Non-Defaulting Lender that portion of any
 

Ingram Micro/Credit Agreement
 
61

 
 
such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Letter of Credit Outstandings that has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (iv) below, (y) pay to each Issuer the amount of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to such Issuer’s Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender, with respect to such Letters of Credit, and (z) not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such fee.
 
(iv)           Reallocation of Participations to Reduce Fronting Exposure.  All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Letter of Credit Outstandings and Swing Line Loans shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Percentages (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment) but only to the extent that (x) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and (y) such reallocation does not cause the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure of any Non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Commitment.  No reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation.
 
(v)           Cash Collateral, Repayment of Swing Line Loans.  If the reallocation described in clause (iv) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrowers shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, (x) first, prepay Swing Line Loans in an amount equal to the Swing Line Lender’s Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender and (y) second, Cash Collateralize the Issuers’ Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 5.16.
 
(b)           Defaulting Lender Cure.  If the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Swing Line Lender and Issuer agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with the Commitments (without giving effect to Section 5.15(a)(iv), whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrowers while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.
 

Ingram Micro/Credit Agreement
 
62

 
 
(c)           New Swing Line Loans/Letters of Credit.  So long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, (i) the Swing Line Lender shall not be required to fund any Swing Line Loans unless it will have no Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender after giving effect to such Swing Line Loan and the reallocation set forth in Section 5.15(a)(iv) and (ii) no Issuer shall be required to issue, extend, renew or increase any Letter of Credit unless it will have no Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender after giving effect thereto and the reallocation set forth in Section 5.15(a)(iv).
 
SECTION 5.16  Cash Collateral.
 
At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, within one Business Day following the written request of the Administrative Agent or any Issuer (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) the applicable Borrower shall Cash Collateralize the Issuers’ Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender (determined after giving effect to Section 5.15(a)(iv) and any Cash Collateral provided by such Defaulting Lender) in an amount not less than the Minimum Collateral Amount.
 
(a)           Grant of Security Interest.  The Borrowers, and to the extent provided by any Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender, hereby grant to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Issuers, and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such Cash Collateral as security for the Defaulting Lenders’ obligation to fund participations in respect of Letter of Credit Outstandings, to be applied pursuant to clause (b) below.  If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent and the Issuers as herein provided (other than non-consensual junior liens permitted by Section 8.2.2) or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the Minimum Collateral Amount, the applicable Borrower will, promptly upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency (after giving effect to any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender).
 
(b)           Application.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under this Section 5.16 or Section 5.15 in respect of Letters of Credit shall be applied to the satisfaction of the Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund participations in respect of Letter of Credit Outstandings (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may otherwise be provided for herein.
 
(c)           Termination of Requirement.  Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce any Issuer’s Fronting Exposure shall no longer be required to be held as Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 5.16 following (i) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender), or (ii) the determination by the Administrative Agent and each Issuer that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided that, subject to Section 5.15 the Person providing Cash Collateral and each Issuer may agree that Cash Collateral shall be held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations.
 

Ingram Micro/Credit Agreement
 
63

 
 
SECTION 5.17  Termination of Defaulting Lender.  The Borrowers may terminate the unused amount of the Commitment of any Lender that is a Defaulting Lender upon not less than five Business Days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the Lenders thereof), provided that (i) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and (ii) such termination shall not be deemed to be a waiver or release of any claim the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, any Issuer, the Swing Line Lender or any Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender.

(a)           the representations and warranties of each Obligor set forth in Article VII (excluding, however, those contained in Section 7.8) and in any other Loan Document shall be true and correct with the same effect as if then made (unless stated to relate solely to an earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties shall be true and correct as of such earlier date); provided that if any of the financial statements delivered pursuant to clause (b) of Section 8.1.1 do not present fairly the consolidated financial condition of the Persons covered thereby as of the dates thereof and the results of their operations for the periods then ended and Micro subsequently delivers one or more financial statements pursuant to clause (a) or (b) of Section 8.1.1 which, in the opinion of the Required Lenders, effectively cures any omission or misstatement contained in such prior delivered financial statement, then the representation and warranty contained in Section 7.6 as it relates to such prior delivered financial statement shall be deemed satisfied for purposes hereof (it being understood and agreed that such subsequent delivered financial statements shall be deemed to have cured such earlier delivered inaccurate financial statements unless the Required Lenders raise an objection with respect thereto);
 
(b)           except as disclosed in Item 7.8 (Litigation) of the Disclosure Schedule:
 
(i)           no labor controversy, litigation, arbitration or governmental investigation or proceeding shall be pending or, to the knowledge of any Obligor, threatened against any Obligor, or any of their respective Consolidated Subsidiaries in respect of which there exists a reasonable possibility of an outcome that would result in a Material Adverse Effect or that would affect the legality, validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any other Loan Document; and

SECTION 6.2.2  Credit Extension Request.  In the case of any Credit Extension the Administrative Agent shall have received the relevant Credit Extension Request in a timely manner as herein provided for such Credit Extension.  Delivery of a Credit Extension Request and the acceptance by Micro or any other Borrower of the proceeds of any Credit Extension shall constitute a representation and warranty by each Obligor that, on the date of making such Credit Extension (both immediately before and after giving effect to the making of such Credit Extension and the application of the proceeds thereof), the statements made in Section 6.2.1 are true and correct.
 
SECTION 6.3  Acceding Borrowers.  Subject to the prior or concurrent satisfaction of the conditions precedent set forth in this Section 6.3, any Subsidiary of Micro may become a party hereto and a Borrower and an Obligor hereunder subsequent to the Effective Date (each such Subsidiary of Micro, an “Acceding Borrower”), entitled to all the rights and subject to all the obligations incident thereto; provided that, if (x) any law, regulation or existing internal “know-your-customer” policy of any Lender would prohibit such Lender (a “Specified Lender”) from making Credit Extensions to any Acceding Borrower (or (y) committing or extending credit to such Acceding Borrower could reasonably be expected to result in any materially adverse regulatory or legal consequence for any Lender (any Lender described in clause (x) or (y), a “Specified Lender”, and any Acceding Borrower described in clause (x) or (y), a “Specified Acceding Borrower”), the other Lenders shall be required to provide Credit Extensions to such Specified Acceding Borrower through a carve-out sub-facility (an “Acceding Borrower Sub-Facility”) under this Agreement.  The Administrative Agent shall give notice to all Lenders of the creation of an Acceding Borrower Sub-Facility.  Credit Extensions under the Acceding Borrower Sub-Facility shall be on identical terms and conditions as all other Credit Extensions under this Agreement except that (i) such Specified Lender shall not be a Lender thereunder, (ii) such Specified Acceding Borrower shall be the sole Borrower thereunder and (iii) the Available Credit Commitments of each Lender (other than each Specified Lender) shall be reduced on a dollar for dollar basis by the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit Exposure of such Lender under such Acceding Borrower Sub-Facility; provided that upon the occurrence of any Event of Default, the Administrative Agent shall re-allocate the outstanding Credit Extensions of all Lenders to ensure that each Lender holds its Percentage of the aggregate Credit Extensions (“Acceding Borrower Sub-Facility Reallocation”).  Upon the creation of any Acceding Borrower Sub-Facility, the Administrative Agent and Micro shall enter into any amendments to this Agreement that the Administrative Agent and Micro believe are necessary or appropriate to effectuate such Acceding Borrower Sub-Facility and Acceding Borrower Sub-Facility Reallocation.  For the avoidance of doubt, it is acknowledged that each Specified Acceding Borrower shall be an Acceding Borrower for purposes of the Micro Guaranty.

(b)           (I) Coordination Center may merge or consolidate with another Person if either (i) Coordination Center is the surviving entity or (ii) the surviving Person (A) is organized and in good standing under the laws of The Kingdom of Belgium and (B) expressly assumes Coordination Center’s Obligations in a written agreement satisfactory in form and substance to the Required Lenders.
 
(b)           (II)  Ingram Lux may merge or consolidate with another Person if either (i) Ingram Lux is the surviving entity or (ii) the surviving Person (A) is organized and in good standing under the laws of Luxembourg and (B) expressly assumes the Obligations of Ingram Lux in a written agreement satisfactory in form and substance to the Required Lenders.

transaction had been consummated on the first day of the most recently ended period of four Fiscal Periods for which financial statements have been or are required to have been delivered pursuant to Section 8.1.1) Micro (or the other surviving Person) would have been, on a pro forma basis, in compliance with each of the covenants set forth in Section 8.2.3 as of the last day of such period.
 
SECTION 8.2.6  Transactions with Affiliates.  Except in the ordinary course of business, no Borrower will (and no Borrower will permit any of its Subsidiaries to), directly or indirectly, pay any funds to or for the account of, make any investment (whether by acquisition of stock or Indebtedness, by loan, advance, transfer of property, guarantee or other agreement to pay, purchase or service, directly or indirectly, any Indebtedness, or otherwise) in, lease, sell, transfer, or otherwise dispose of any assets, tangible or intangible, to, or participate in, or effect, any transaction with, any Affiliate (any such payment, investment, lease, sale, transfer, other disposition or transaction, an “Affiliate Transaction”) except on an arms-length basis on terms at least as favorable to such Borrower (or such Subsidiary) as terms that could have been obtained from a third party who was not an Affiliate; provided that:
 
(a)           the foregoing provisions of this Section 8.2.6 do not prohibit (i) agreements with or for the benefit of employees of such Borrower or any Subsidiaries regarding bridge home loans and other loans necessitated by the relocation of such Borrower’s or such Subsidiary’s business or employees, or regarding short-term hardship advances, (ii) loans to officers or employees of such Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries in connection with the exercise of rights under such Borrower’s stock option or stock purchase plan, (iii) any such Person from declaring or paying any lawful dividend or other payment ratably in respect of all of its capital stock of the relevant class so long as, in the case of Micro, after giving effect thereto, no Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (iv) any Affiliate Transaction between Micro and any of its Subsidiaries or between any Subsidiaries of Micro, or (v) any Affiliate Transaction (other than any Affiliate Transaction described in clauses (i) through (iv) above) in which the amount involved does not exceed $50,000; and

(d)           Execution and delivery of each Continuation Notice shall constitute the relevant Borrower’s representation and warranty that the Borrowers are not then in violation of Section 8.2.7(c)(i).
 
SECTION 8.2.8  Limitation on Businesses.  Micro and its Subsidiaries, considered as a whole, will not engage principally in businesses other than those conducted by Micro and its Subsidiaries on the Effective Date, as described in the preamble of this Agreement.

SECTION 10.2  Funding Reliance, etc.  Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by telephone, confirmed in writing, by any Lender by 5:00 p.m., Applicable Time, on the Business Day prior to the making of a Loan that such Lender will not make available an amount which would constitute its Percentage of such requested Loan on the date specified therefor, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to the Administrative Agent and, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the relevant Borrower a corresponding amount.  If and to the extent that such Lender shall not have made such amount available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender and the relevant Borrower severally agree, to pay the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date the Administrative Agent made such amount available to the relevant Borrower to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at an annual interest rate equal to the Administrative Agent’s Cost of Funds for the first day that the Administrative Agent made such amounts available and thereafter at a rate of interest equal to the interest rate applicable at the time to the requested Loan.
 
SECTION 10.3  Exculpation.  No Agent nor any of their respective directors, officers, employees or agents shall be liable to any Lender for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it

under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or in connection herewith or therewith, except for its own willful misconduct or gross negligence, nor be responsible for any recitals or warranties herein or therein, nor for the effectiveness, enforceability, validity or due execution of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, nor to make any inquiry respecting the performance by any Obligor of its obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document (except that the Administrative Agent shall confirm receipt of the items required to be delivered to it pursuant to Section 6.1).  Any such inquiry which may be made by any Agent shall not obligate it to make any further inquiry to take any action.  Each Agent shall be entitled to rely upon advice of counsel concerning legal matters and upon any notice, consent, certificate, statement or writing which each such Agent believes to be genuine and to have been presented by a proper Person.
 
SECTION 10.4  Successor.  Any Agent may resign as such at any time upon at least 30 days’ prior notice to Micro and all the Lenders.  If an Agent shall at any time resign, the Required Lenders, after consultations with Micro, may appoint another Lender as a successor Administrative Agent or Syndication Agent, as the case may be, whereupon such Lender shall become the Administrative Agent or a Syndication Agent hereunder, as the case may be.  If no successor Administrative Agent or Syndication Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders, and shall have accepted such appointment, within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent’s or Syndication Agent’s giving notice of resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent or Syndication Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, after consultations with Micro, appoint a successor Administrative Agent or Syndication Agent, as the case may be, which shall be one of the Lenders or a commercial banking institution that is organized under the laws of the United States or any State thereof (or a branch or agency of either) and that has a combined capital and surplus of at least $500,000,000.  Upon acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent or Syndication Agent hereunder, as the case may be, by a successor Administrative Agent or Syndication Agent, as the case may be, such successor Administrative Agent or Syndication Agent shall be entitled to receive from the retiring Administrative Agent or Syndication Agent such documents of transfer and assignment as such successor Administrative Agent or Syndication Agent, as the case may be, may reasonably request, and shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent or Syndication Agent, as the case may be, and the retiring Administrative Agent or Syndication Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement.  After any retiring Administrative Agent’s or Syndication Agent’s resignation hereunder as the Administrative Agent or a Syndication Agent, as the case may be, the provisions of:
 
(a)           this Article X shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was the Administrative Agent or a Syndication Agent under this Agreement; and
 
(b)           Sections 11.3 and 11.4 shall continue to inure to its benefit.
 
SECTION 10.5  Credit Extensions by an Agent.  Each Agent shall have the same rights and powers with respect to the Credit Extensions made by it or any of its Affiliates in its capacity as a Lender and may exercise the same as if it were not an Agent hereunder.  Each Agent and its respective Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of business with any Obligor or Subsidiary of any thereof as if it were not an Agent hereunder.

SECTION 10.6  Credit Decisions.  Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently of the Agents and each other Lender, and based on such Lender’s review of the financial information of each Obligor, this Agreement, the other Loan Documents (the terms and provisions which being satisfactory to such Lender) and such other documents, information and investigations as such Lender has deemed appropriate, made its own credit decision to make available its Commitment.  Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently of the Agents and each other Lender, and based on such other documents, information and investigations as it shall deem appropriate at any time, continue to make its own credit decisions as to exercising or not exercising from time to time any rights and privileges available to it under this Agreement or any other Loan Document.
 
SECTION 10.7  Copies, etc.  The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to each Lender of each notice or request required or permitted to be given to the Administrative Agent by any Obligor pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document (unless concurrently delivered to the Lenders by such Obligor).  The Administrative Agent will distribute to each Lender each document or instrument received for its account, and copies of all other communications received by the Administrative Agent from any Obligor, for distribution to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document.
 
SECTION 10.8  Joint Lead Arrangers and other Agents.  Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Joint Lead Arrangers, the Coco-Bookrunners and the co-Syndication Agents listed on the cover page hereof shall not have any duties or responsibilities under this Agreement, except in their capacity, if any, as Administrative Agent or Lender.

except for any such Indemnified Liabilities arising for the account of a particular Indemnified Party by reason of the relevant Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as finally determined in a non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction.  If and to the extent that the foregoing undertaking may be unenforceable for any reason, the Obligors hereby jointly and severally agree to make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities which is permissible under applicable law.  This Section 11.4 shall not apply with respect to taxes other than any taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any non-tax claim.
 
SECTION 11.5  Survival.  The obligations of Micro and each other Obligor under Sections 5.3, 5.4, 5.5, 5.7, 11.3, and 11.4, and the obligations of the Lenders under Sections 10.1 and 11.15, shall in each case survive any termination of this Agreement, the payment in full of Obligations, and the termination of the Commitments.  The representations and warranties made by Micro and each other Obligor in this Agreement and in each other Loan Document shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and each such other Loan Document.

Ingram Micro/Credit Agreement
 
97

 
 
(c)           each Borrower and each other Obligor and the Agents shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and each other Loan Document;
 
(d)           no Participant, unless such Participant is an Affiliate of such Lender or is itself a Lender, shall be entitled to require such Lender to take or refrain from taking any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document, except that such Lender may agree with any Participant that such Lender will not, without such Participant’s consent, take any actions of the type described in clause (a), (b) or clause (c) of Section 11.1; and
 
(e)           no Borrower shall be required to pay any amount under this Agreement that is greater than the amount which it would have been required to pay had no participating interest been sold.
 
The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that each Participant, for purposes of Sections 5.3, 5.4, 5.5, 5.7, 5.9, 5.10, 11.3, and 11.4, shall be considered a Lender (subject to the requirements and limitations therein); provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Sections 5.12 and 5.13 as if it were a Lender Party; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 5.7, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender Party would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a change in law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation.  Each Lender Party that sells a participation agrees, at the Obligor’s request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Obligor to effectuate the provisions of Section 5.12 with respect to any Participant.
 
Each Lender Party that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Obligor, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Credit Extensions or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender Party shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations.  The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender Party shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.  For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.
 
SECTION 11.12  Other Transactions.  Nothing contained herein shall preclude any Lender Party from engaging in any transaction, in addition to those contemplated by this Agreement or any other Loan Document, with any Obligor or any of its Affiliates in which such Obligor or such Affiliate is not restricted hereby from engaging with any other Person.
 

Ingram Micro/Credit Agreement

1.5           Schedule.  The following schedule annexed hereto is incorporated herein by reference and deemed to be part hereof:
 
 
Schedule A — A form of execution copy of Credit Agreement dated as of the date hereof, including the schedules and exhibits attached thereto.
 
1.6           Entire Agreement.  This Agreement, together with the Schedule, agreements and other documents herein or therein referred to, constitutes the entire agreement between the parties pertaining to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements, understandings, negotiations and discussions, whether oral or written, between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and there are no warranties, representations or other agreements between the parties in connection with the subject matter hereof except as specifically set forth herein.

ARTICLE II -AGREEMENTS
 
2.1           Acknowledgments.  Each of the parties hereto acknowledges and confirms:
 
(a)           that it has received an execution copy of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and that its financial officers have reviewed the contents of such agreements as well as all other documents, facts and other circumstances necessary to arrive at an informed judgment as to the advisability of entering into its Guaranty and of the benefits obtained by implementing its Guaranty; and
 
(b)           that the proceeds of the Credit Extensions will be an essential element necessary to meet its long-term financing needs, that it expects to benefit directly and indirectly from the implementation of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and that the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including the Guarantees, will be more favorable than any long-term financing arrangement it could negotiate on its own behalf without the credit support of the Group.
 
2.2           [RESERVED]
 
2.3           Indemnity of Borrowers.  Subject to the rights of any Lender Party under the Credit Documents (including the subordination provisions contained therein), each Borrower hereby agrees to indemnify each Guarantor forthwith upon demand and to hold each Guarantor harmless against any and all losses, costs and expenses incurred by such Guarantor as a result of fulfilling its obligations under any Guaranty provided by it (“Guarantor Losses”) in respect of the
 
 
 
4

 
 
 
Obligations of such Borrower.  Subject to Section 2.7, a Guarantor that has incurred Guarantor Losses may elect to obtain the benefit of the indemnity under this Section 2.3 by setting its Guarantor Losses off against the net amount of any obligations that it may owe to any Borrower at that time to the extent of such net amount.
 
2.4           Guarantor Indemnities.  Subject to the rights of any Lender Party under the Credit Documents (including the subordination provisions contained therein), and without in any way limiting the liabilities of any Borrower under Section 2.3, each of the Guarantors jointly and severally agrees to indemnify every other Guarantor forthwith upon demand and hold every other Guarantor harmless against any and all Guarantor Losses incurred by such Guarantor (an “Indemnified Guarantor”) to the extent that such Guarantor Losses exceed the Indemnified Guarantor’s Net Asset Amount on the date such Guarantor Losses are incurred; provided that no Guarantor shall be required to pay an amount in respect of the indemnity set forth in this Section 2.4 greater than its Net Asset Amount on such date.
 
2.5           Sharing Losses.  Subject to the rights of any Lender Party under the Credit Documents (including the subordination provisions contained therein) and without in any way limiting the liabilities of any Borrower under Section 2.3 or of the Guarantors under Section 2.4, each of the Guarantors agrees that the liability for all Guarantor Losses shall be shared by the Guarantors pro rata on the basis of each Guarantor’s Net Asset Amount.  For greater certainty, following the fulfillment of obligations under the Guaranties, including payments made under the indemnities set forth in Section 2.4, each Guarantor covenants and agrees to compensate the Guarantors incurring Guarantor Losses, either directly as a result of the Guaranties or indirectly as a result of the indemnity set forth in Section 2.4, by the payment of an amount not exceeding its own Net Asset Amount (the “Compensation Payment”) to such Guarantors that will be sufficient, when aggregated with all other Compensation Payments made hereunder, to ensure that no Guarantor incurs a liability for Guarantor Losses greater than an amount equal to the product obtained by multiplying the aggregate Guarantor Losses of all the Guarantors at such time by a fraction the numerator of which is the Net Asset Amount of such Guarantor at such time and the denominator of which is the aggregate Net Asset Amounts of all the Guarantors at such time.
 
2.6           Application of Funds.  Each Borrower hereby covenants and agrees that the proceeds from the Credit Extensions will be used for the purpose of meeting the financing requirements of the Group, including the Guarantors, and that funds provided out of such proceeds will be available to support the operational and expansion needs of the Guarantors from time to time.
 
2.7           No Subrogation.  Notwithstanding any payment or payments made or expenses incurred by any Guarantor pursuant to this Agreement, the rights of such a Guarantor
 
(a)           against each Borrower (other than such Guarantor) in respect of any and all rights of reimbursement, indemnification and subrogation with respect to the Guaranties or any other guaranty of the Credit Documents of any nature,
 
 
 
 
5

 
 
(b)           against each Borrower (other than such Guarantor), any other Guarantor or any other party hereto in respect of any and all present and future debts and obligations of such party under this Agreement to such Guarantor, and
 
(c)           against each Borrower (other than such Guarantor), at any time when an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, in respect of any and all other present and future debts and obligations of each Borrower to such Guarantor,
 
(including any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration or indemnification) are hereby postponed in favor of and subordinated to (i) the payment in full in cash of all of the obligations of each Obligor owing to all of the Lender Parties under or with respect to the Credit Documents and (ii) the termination of all the Commitments.  If any amount shall be paid to any of the Guarantors with respect to any of the foregoing rights prior to the occurrence of the events described in clauses (i) and (ii) of the preceding sentence, such amount shall be deemed to have been paid to each such Guarantor for the benefit of, and held in trust by each such Guarantor in the name and for the account of the Lender Parties and, in addition, shall forthwith be paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lender Parties to be credited and applied against the obligations of such Guarantor pursuant to its Guaranty if then matured or forthwith be repaid to the relevant Borrower if such obligations are then unmatured.
 
2.8           Liability under the Documents.  The provisions of this Agreement shall in no way limit or otherwise affect the liability of any of the Borrowers for Credit Extensions made pursuant to any of the Credit Documents.

MICRO GUARANTY
 
 
Pursuant to THIS GUARANTY (this “Guaranty”), dated as of __________, 2011, INGRAM MICRO INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Guarantor”), hereby unconditionally, absolutely and irrevocably guarantees as primary obligor and not as a surety merely, to each Lender Party (as defined below), without offset or deduction, (a) the full and punctual payment when due of all amounts payable by Ingram Micro Coordination Center B.V.B.A., a company organized and existing under the laws of The Kingdom of Belgium (“Coordination Center”) and each Acceding Borrower (as defined in the Credit Agreement described below) that shall become a party to the Credit Agreement described below pursuant to an Accession Request and Acknowledgment (as defined in the Credit Agreement described below) duly acknowledged on behalf of the Guarantor (Coordination Center being, with any such Acceding Borrower, the “Other Borrowers”), under or in connection with the Credit Agreement (together with all amendments and other modifications, if any, from time to time made to it, the “Credit Agreement”; unless otherwise defined herein all capitalized terms used herein without definition have the meanings provided for in the Credit Agreement) dated as of the date hereof, among the Guarantor and Coordination Center as the Initial Borrowers, certain financial institutions (together with their respective successors and permitted assigns and any branch or affiliate of a financial institution funding a Loan as permitted by Section 5.6 of the Credit Agreement, collectively, the “Lenders”), The Bank of Nova Scotia, as Administrative Agent (in that capacity the “Administrative Agent”) for the Lenders and Bank of America, N.A., BNP Paribas, The Royal Bank of Scotland plc and Union Bank, N.A., as Co-Syndication Agents (the “Co-Syndication Agents”) for the Lenders (the Lenders, the Administrative Agent, the Co-Syndication Agents, and those arrangers being, collectively, the “Lender Parties”) and the other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, all principal, interest, premiums, fees and expenses payable by the Other Borrowers thereunder and all reasonable expenses incurred by any Lender Party in enforcing any rights under the Credit Agreement, the Notes (if any), and the other Loan Documents (including this Guaranty) and (b) the full performance and observance of all of the covenants, conditions and agreements provided in the Credit Agreement and each other Loan Document required to be performed or observed by the Other Borrowers (all of the foregoing guaranteed obligations being the “Guaranteed Obligations”).
 
In the case of a failure of any Other Borrower punctually to make any payment of principal of or interest or premium on any Credit Extension or any Note, the Guarantor hereby agrees to cause any such payment to be made punctually when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether at the stated maturity, on a prepayment date, by declaration of acceleration, or otherwise, as if such payment were made by that Other Borrower.  This Guaranty constitutes a guaranty of payment and not a guaranty of collection.  The obligations and agreements of the Guarantor hereunder shall be performed and observed without requiring any notice of non-payment, non-performance or non-observance, or any proof thereof or demand therefor, all of which the Guarantor hereby expressly waives.
 
 
 
 

 
 
 
The Guarantor and the Other Borrowers are engaged as an integrated group in diversified operations including wholesale distribution of microcomputer software and hardware products, multimedia products, customer financing, assembly and configuration and other related wholesaling, distribution and service activities.  This integrated operation requires financing on such basis that credit supplied to the Guarantor and the Other Borrowers be made available from time to time to the other Subsidiaries of the Guarantor, separately, and as an integrated operation as a whole.  To induce the Lender Parties to enter into the Credit Agreement and make Credit Extensions pursuant thereto, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Guarantor has agreed to guarantee, on the terms and conditions set forth herein, the obligations of the Other Borrowers under the Credit Agreement, the Notes (if any), and each other Loan Document, and the Guarantor expects to derive benefit, directly or indirectly, from the Credit Extensions made to any Other Borrower from time to time.
 
SECTION 1.          Consents and Waivers by Guarantor.  1) This Guaranty shall be binding upon the Guarantor, its successors and assigns, and shall remain in full force and effect irrespective of, and shall not be terminated by, the existence of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting the terms of the Credit Agreement, any Note, any other Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto (the foregoing agreements, documents and instruments being, collectively, the “Credit Documents”), or the rights or obligations of any Obligor under or with respect to any of the Credit Documents.  The liability of the Guarantor under this Guaranty shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable irrespective of:
 
(i)           any lack of validity or enforceability of any Obligor’s obligations under or with respect to any Credit Document;
 
(ii)           any change, whether or not agreed to by the Lender Parties, in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Credit Documents or any other amendment, renewal, extension, acceleration, compromise or waiver of or any consent or departure from the terms of provisions of any of the Credit Documents;
 
(iii)          the lack of power or authority of any of the Obligors to execute and deliver any of the Credit Documents, any set-off or counterclaim which may at any time be available to or asserted by any Obligor against any Lender Party with respect to such Obligor’s obligations under any of the Credit Documents; the existence or continuance of any Obligor as a legal entity; the consolidation or merger of any Obligor with or into any other corporation, or the sale, lease or other disposition by any Obligor of all or substantially all of its assets to any other business entity, whether or not effected in compliance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement; or the bankruptcy or insolvency of any Obligor, the admission in writing by any Obligor of its inability to pay its debts as they mature, or the making by any Obligor of a general assignment for the benefit of, or entering into a composition or arrangement with, creditors;
 
(iv)          any act, failure to act, delay or omission whatsoever on the part of any Lender Party, including, without limitation, any failure to demand, delay in demanding
 
 
 
2

 
 
 
or rescission of a demand for any payment under any of the Credit Documents or any failure to give to any Obligor (including the Guarantor) notice of default in the making of any payment due and payable under any of the Credit Documents or performance of any covenant, condition or agreement contained in any of the Credit Documents or any action taken by any Lender Party in the exercise, either in whole or in part, of any right or power conferred by any of the Credit Documents or the failure, delay or omission by any Lender Party to exercise any such right or power;
 
(v)           except in each case by a written amendment, waiver, consent, release, or termination executed and delivered by the Administrative Agent or other appropriate Lender Party pursuant to Section 7(b) of this Guaranty, Section 11.1(b) of the Credit Agreement, or both, as applicable, any invalidation of any of the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder or the repudiation of this Guaranty by the Guarantor, whether or not under color of right, or any act, failure to act, delay or omission whatsoever on the part of any Lender Party with respect to the Guarantor’s obligations hereunder, including, without limitation, any termination of the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder, any amendment, compromise or waiver of or any consent or departure from the terms or provisions of this Guaranty with respect to the Guarantor or any release of the Guarantor from liability hereunder;
 
(vi)         except in each case by a written amendment, waiver, consent, release, or termination executed and delivered by the Administrative Agent or other appropriate Lender Party pursuant to Section 7(b) of this Guaranty, Section 11.1(b) of the Credit Agreement, or both, as applicable, any release, discharge, modification or exchange of any property pledged or mortgaged or in which a security interest has been granted as collateral for the Guaranteed Obligations, or any amendment or termination of or consent or waiver under any agreement or instrument now or hereafter providing for granting, pledging, mortgaging or conveying collateral for the Guaranteed Obligations; and
 
(vii)        any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or legal or equitable discharge of, the Other Borrowers or any other Obligor;
 
it being the purpose and intent of this Guaranty that the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable and shall not be discharged or terminated except by full and complete performance of all of the Guaranteed Obligations.
 
(b)           The Guarantor agrees that it is directly and primarily liable to the Lender Parties, that the obligations hereunder are independent of the obligations of each Other Borrower and any other Obligor, and that a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against the Guarantor, whether or not an action is brought against any Other Borrower or any other Obligor, or whether any Other Borrower or any other Obligor is joined in any such action or actions.  The Guarantor agrees that any releases which may be given by the Lender Parties to any Other Borrower or any other Obligor or endorser shall not release it from this Guaranty.
 
(c)           The Guarantor does hereby waive and relinquish, so far as it may lawfully and effectively do so, the benefit and advantage of any and all valuation, stay, appraisement, extension or redemption law or laws now in effect or hereafter enacted, and also waives
 
 
 
3

 
 
 
promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance, default, dishonor, non-payment, non-performance or any other notice to or upon any Other Borrower or the Guarantor.
 
SECTION 2.          No Subrogation.
 
(a)           Any and all present and future debts and obligations of each Other Borrower to the Guarantor, including rights of reimbursement and subrogation, are hereby postponed in favor of and subordinated to the payment in full in cash of all of the Guaranteed Obligations and termination of all the Commitments; provided that the payment of such present and future debts other than those due by virtue of rights of reimbursement and subrogation with respect to this Guaranty shall be so postponed and subordinated only if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.
 
(b)           Notwithstanding any payment or payments made or expenses incurred by the Guarantor pursuant to this Guaranty, the Guarantor shall not be subrogated, in whole or in part, to the rights of the Lender Parties against any Other Borrower under the Credit Documents until the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been paid in cash in full and the Commitments shall have terminated.  If any amount shall be paid to the Guarantor in violation of the preceding sentence, such amount shall be deemed to have been paid to the Guarantor for the benefit of, and held in trust for, the Lender Parties and, in addition, shall forthwith be paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lender Parties to be credited and applied upon the Guaranteed Obligations if then matured or forthwith be repaid to the relevant Other Borrower if such obligations are then unmatured.  The Guarantor hereby agrees that, as between itself on the one hand and the Lender Parties on the other hand, the Guaranteed Obligations may be declared to be forthwith due and payable notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such declaration as against any Other Borrowers and that, in the event of any such declaration, the Guaranteed Obligations (whether or not then due and payable by any Other Borrowers) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantor for purposes of this Guaranty.
 
SECTION 3.          Reinstatement of Guaranty.  This Guaranty shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment, or any part thereof, of any of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by any Lender Party upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Other Borrower, the Guarantor or any other Obligor or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.
 
SECTION 4.          Rights of Contribution.  The Guarantor and each other Person providing a Guaranty pursuant to the Credit Agreement from time to time (collectively, the “Group Guarantors”), hereby agree, as among themselves and for the benefit of each of them, that if any Guarantor (in such capacity, an “Excess Funding Guarantor”) shall make any payment in respect of any of the Guaranteed Obligations hereunder (a “Guarantee Payment”) as a result of which such Excess Funding Guarantor shall have paid more than its Pro Rata Share (as defined below) of the Guaranteed Obligations, each other Group Guarantor shall, on demand of such Excess Funding Guarantor (but subject to the next sentence hereof), pay to such Excess Funding Guarantor an amount equal to such Group Guarantor’s Pro Rata Share of such Guarantee Payment.  The payment obligation of any Group Guarantor to any Excess Funding Guarantor under this Section 4 shall be subordinate and subject to the prior payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations (in favor of the Lender Parties) and termination of all the Commitments
 
 
 
4

EXHIBIT I
 
ADDITIONAL GUARANTY
 
 
Pursuant to THIS GUARANTY (the “Guaranty”), dated as of __________, 2011, [INSERT NAME OF ADDITIONAL GUARANTOR], a ____________ (the “Guarantor”), hereby unconditionally, absolutely and irrevocably guarantees, as primary obligor and not as surety merely, to each Lender Party (as defined below), without offset or deduction, (a) the full and punctual payment when due of all amounts payable by Ingram Micro Inc., a corporation organized and existing under the laws of the State of Delaware (“Micro”) and Ingram Micro Coordination Center, B.V.B.A., a company organized and existing under the laws of The Kingdom of Belgium (“Coordination Center”, and, together with Micro, the “Initial Borrowers”), under or in connection with the Credit Agreement (together with all amendments and other modifications, if any, from time to time made thereto, the “Credit Agreement”; unless otherwise defined herein all capitalized terms used herein without definition have the meanings provided for in the Credit Agreement) dated as of the date hereof, among Micro and Coordination Center, as the Initial Borrowers, certain financial institutions (together with their respective successors and permitted assigns and any branch or affiliate of a financial institution funding a Loan as permitted by Section 5.6 of the Credit Agreement, collectively, the “Lenders”), The Bank of Nova Scotia, as administrative agent (in such capacity the “Administrative Agent”) for the Lenders and Bank of America, N.A., BNP Paribas, The Royal Bank of Scotland plc and Union Bank, N.A., as co-syndication agents (the “Co-Syndication Agents”) for the Lenders (hereinafter, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent, the Co-Syndication Agents, and those arrangers being, collectively, the “Lender Parties”) and the other Loan Documents, including, without limitation, all principal, interest, premiums, fees and expenses payable by the Borrowers thereunder and all reasonable expenses incurred by any Lender Party in enforcing any rights under the Credit Agreement, the Notes (if any), and the other Loan Documents (including this Guaranty) and (b) the full performance and observance of all of the covenants, conditions and agreements provided in the Credit Agreement and each other Loan Document required to be performed or observed by each Borrower (all of the foregoing guaranteed obligations being the “Guaranteed Obligations”).
 
In the case of a failure of any Borrower punctually to make any payment of principal of or interest or premium on any Credit Extension or any Note, the Guarantor hereby agrees to cause any such payment to be made punctually when and as the same shall become due and payable, whether at the stated maturity, on a prepayment date, by declaration of acceleration, or otherwise, as if such payment were made by such Borrower.  This Guaranty constitutes a guaranty of payment and not a guaranty of collection.  The obligations and agreements of the Guarantor hereunder shall be performed and observed without requiring any notice of non-payment, non-performance or non-observance, or any proof thereof or demand therefor, all of which the Guarantor hereby expressly waives.
 
The Borrowers and the Guarantor are engaged as an integrated group in diversified operations including wholesale distribution of microcomputer software and hardware products, multimedia products, customer financing, assembly and configuration and other related wholesaling, distribution and service activities.  This integrated operation requires financing on
 
 
 
 

 
 
such a basis that credit supplied to Micro and the other Borrowers be made available from time to time to the Guarantor, as required for the continued successful operation of each Borrower and the Guarantor, separately, and the integrated operation as a whole.  In accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement, and to further induce the Lender Parties to continue making Credit Extensions pursuant thereto, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Guarantor has agreed to guarantee, on the terms and conditions set forth herein, the obligations of the Borrowers under the Credit Agreement, the Notes (if any) and each other Loan Document, and the Guarantor expects to derive benefit, directly or indirectly, from the Credit Extensions made to the Borrowers from time to time.
 
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder shall be limited to an aggregate amount equal to the largest amount that would not render its obligations hereunder subject to avoidance under Section 548 of the United States Bankruptcy Code or any comparable provisions of applicable law of any State of the United States.
 
SECTION 1.                      Consents and Waivers by Guarantor.  i) This Guaranty shall be binding upon the Guarantor, its successors and assigns, and shall remain in full force and effect irrespective of, and shall not be terminated by, the existence of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting the terms of the Credit Agreement, any Note, any other Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto (the foregoing agreements, documents and instruments being, collectively, the “Credit Documents”), or the rights or obligations of any Obligor under or with respect to any of the Credit Documents.  The liability of the Guarantor under this Guaranty shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable irrespective of:
 
(i)           any lack of validity or enforceability of any Obligor’s obligations under or with respect to any Credit Document;
 
(ii)           any change, whether or not agreed to by the Lender Parties, in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Credit Documents or any other amendment, renewal, extension, acceleration, compromise or waiver of or any consent or departure from the terms or provisions of any of the Credit Documents;
 
(iii)          the lack of power or authority of any of the Obligors to execute and deliver any of the Credit Documents, any set-off or counterclaim which may at any time be available to or asserted by any Obligor against any Lender Party with respect to such Obligor’s obligations under any of the Credit Documents; the existence or continuance of any Obligor as a legal entity; the consolidation or merger of any Obligor with or into any other corporation, or the sale, lease or other disposition by any Obligor of all or substantially all of its assets to any other business entity, whether or not effected in compliance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement; or the bankruptcy or insolvency of any Obligor, the admission in writing by any Obligor of its inability to pay its debts as they mature, or the making by any Obligor of a general assignment for the benefit of, or entering into a composition or arrangement with, creditors;
 
 
 
 
2

 
 
(iv)         any act, failure to act, delay or omission whatsoever on the part of any Lender Party, including, without limitation, any failure to demand, delay in demanding or rescission of a demand for any payment under any of the Credit Documents or any failure to give to any Obligor (including the Guarantor) notice of default in the making of any payment due and payable under any of the Credit Documents or performance of any covenant, condition or agreement contained in any of the Credit Documents or any action taken by any Lender Party in the exercise, either in whole or in part, of any right or power conferred by any of the Credit Documents or the failure, delay or omission by any Lender Party to exercise any such right or power;
 
(v)           except in each case by a written amendment, waiver, consent, release, or termination executed and delivered by the Administrative Agent or other appropriate Lender Party pursuant to Section 8(b) of this Guaranty, Section 11.1(b) of the Credit Agreement, or both, as applicable, any invalidation of any of the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder or the repudiation of this Guaranty by the Guarantor, whether or not under color of right, or any act, failure to act, delay or omission whatsoever on the part of any Lender Party with respect to the Guarantor’s obligations hereunder, including, without limitation, any termination of the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder, any amendment, compromise or waiver of or any consent or departure from the terms or provisions of this Guaranty with respect to the Guarantor or any release of the Guarantor from liability hereunder;
 
(vi)         except in each case by a written amendment, waiver, consent, release, or termination executed and delivered by the Administrative Agent or other appropriate Lender Party pursuant to Section 8(b) of this Guaranty, Section 11.1(b) of the Credit Agreement, or both, as applicable, any release, discharge, modifications or exchange of any property pledged or mortgaged or in which a security interest has been granted as collateral for the Guaranteed Obligations, or any amendment or termination of or consent or waiver under any agreement or instrument now or hereafter providing for granting, pledging, mortgaging or conveying collateral for the Guaranteed Obligations; and
 
(vii)         any other circumstance which might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a legal or equitable discharge of, the Borrowers or any other Obligor;
 
it being the purpose and intent of this Guaranty that the obligations of the Guarantor hereunder shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable and shall not be discharged or terminated except by full and complete performance of all of the Guaranteed Obligations.
 
(b)           The Guarantor agrees that it is directly and primarily and jointly and severally liable to the Lender Parties, that the obligations hereunder are independent of the obligations of each Borrower and any other Obligor, and that a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against the Guarantor, whether or not an action is brought against any Borrower or any other Obligor, or whether any Borrower or any other Obligor is joined in any such action or actions.  The Guarantor agrees that any releases which may be given by the Lender Parties to any Borrower or any
 
 
 
3

 
 
 
other Obligor or endorser shall not release it from this Guaranty.
 
(c)           The Guarantor does hereby waive and relinquish, so far as it may lawfully and effectively do so, the benefit and advantage of any and all valuation, stay, appraisement, extension or redemption law or laws now in effect or hereafter enacted, and also waives promptness, diligence, notice of acceptance, default, dishonor, non-payment, non-performance or any other notice to or upon any Borrower or the Guarantor.
 
SECTION 2.          No Subrogation.  ii) Any and all present and future debts and obligations of each Borrower to the Guarantor, including rights of reimbursement and subrogation, are hereby postponed in favor of and subordinated to the payment in full in cash of all of the Guaranteed Obligations and termination of all the Commitments; provided, however, that the payment of such present and future debts other than those due by virtue of rights of reimbursement and subrogation with respect to this Guaranty shall be so postponed and subordinated only if an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing.
 
(b)           Notwithstanding any payment or payments made or expenses incurred by the Guarantor pursuant to this Guaranty, the Guarantor shall not be subrogated, in whole or in part, to the rights of the Lender Parties against the Borrowers under the Credit Documents until the Guaranteed Obligations shall have been paid in cash in full and the Commitments have terminated.  If any amount shall be paid to the Guarantor in violation of the preceding sentence, such amount shall be deemed to have been paid to the Guarantor for the benefit of, and held in trust for, the Lender Parties and, in addition, shall forthwith be paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lender Parties to be credited and applied upon the Guaranteed Obligations if then matured or forthwith be repaid to the relevant Borrower if such obligations are then unmatured.  The Guarantor hereby agrees that, as between the Guarantor on the one hand and the Lender Parties on the other hand, the Guaranteed Obligations may be declared to be forthwith due and payable notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such declaration as against any of the Borrowers and that, in the event of any such declaration, the Guaranteed Obligations (whether or not then due and payable by any of the Borrowers) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantor for purposes of this Guaranty.
 
SECTION 3.          Reinstatement of Guaranty.  This Guaranty shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment, or any part thereof, of any of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by any Lender Party upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Borrower the Guarantor or any other Obligor (including the Guarantor) or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.
