This Amendment No. 5 ("the Amendment'') to the Nonexclusive Value Added
Distributor Agreement by and between ScanSource, Inc. ("Distributor"), a South
Carolina corporation with a place of business at 6 Logue Court, Greenville,
South Carolina, 29615, and Cisco Systems, Inc., a California corporation having
its principal place of business at 170 West Tasman Drive, San Jose, CA 95134
("Cisco"), is effective as of the date of last signature below (the "Amendment
Effective Date"). All capitalized terms contained herein shall have the same
meaning as the terms defined in the Agreement unless specifically modified in
this Amendment.

WHEREAS, Cisco and Distributor previously entered into a Nonexclusive Value
Added Distributor Agreement dated January 22, 2007, as amended (the
"Agreement"); and

WHEREAS, Cisco and Distributor desire to add authorization for distribution to
Resellers with
U.S.
Federal Government End Users;

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the covenants and promises set forth herein
and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of
which are hereby expressly acknowledged by all of the parties to this Amendment,
Cisco and Distributor hereby represent, covenant and agree as follows:

1.
The following definition is added to Section 1.0 (Definitions):

U.S. Federal Government is an executive, legislative or judicial branch agency
of the United States Government or a U.S. Government corporation that was
specifically formed and is currently existing under an Act of Congress, as well
as any government-owned, contractor-operated ("GOCO") facilities and
establishments.

2.
Section 9.4 (Restricted Rights) is added:

9.4
Restricted Rights. Software is provided to all agencies, departments, and other
units of the United States Government except for the Department of Defense and
its constituent agencies with LIMITED RIGHTS. Related documentation is provided
with RESTRICTED RIGHTS. Use, duplication, or disclosure by the US Government,
except for the Department of Defense and its constituent agencies, is subject to
the restrictions set forth in subparagraph (c) of the "Commercial Computer
Software-Restricted Rights" clause at FAR 52.227-19. In the event of a sale to
the Department of Defense or its constituent agencies, the US Governments rights
in Software, supporting documentation, and technical data are subject to the
restrictions in the 'Commercial Computer Software and Commercial Computer
Software Documentation" clause at DFARS 227.7202.

3.
Section 20.1 (Government/Military Sales) is added:

20.1
Government/Military Sales. Distributor hereby certifies that none of the
Products, Services, or technical data supplied by Cisco under this Agreement
will be knowingly sold or otherwise transferred to, or made available for use by
or for, any government or military end-user or in any government or military
end-use located in or operating under the authority of any country not
identified in Supplement No. 1, Country Group Al to Part 740 of the EAR without
US or other country's export authorizations.

4.
Section 20.2 is added:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Exhibit 10.40

20.2
If Distributor’s customers elect to sell Cisco’s Products (including supplies,
software, documentations or services) to the U.S. Government or to a prime
contractor selling to the U.S. Government, the Products are “commercial items”
as that term is defined at 48 C.F.R. 2.101. Cisco will comply with provisions of
FAR 52.244-6, Subcontracts for Commercial Items and Commercial Components.
Should U.S. Government End Users acquire Products that consist of “commercial
computer software” and “commercial computer software document” as such terms are
used in 48 C.F.R. 12.212, which generally limits their rights to the licenses
customarily provided by Cisco to the public, as provided in FAR 52.227-19.

5. Section 20.3 is added:

Cisco and Distributor further agree to provisions regarding sales to the Federal
government in Exhibit H.

6.
Exhibit H (Distribution to Federal Government Terms) is hereby added.

7.
The Term of the Agreement is hereby renewed for one year from the Effective
Date, unless sooner terminated as provided for in the Agreement. If the
Agreement expired prior to the Amendment Effective Date, any orders received and
Products and Services purchased between the date of expiration and the Amendment
Effective Date shall be in all respects deemed made under the Agreement as in
effect prior to this Amendment. The parties further agree that if Distributor
places Purchase Orders after the expiration of the Agreement, and Cisco accepts
such Purchase Orders, then any such Purchase Orders shall be governed by the
terms and conditions of the Agreement; provided however that acceptance by Cisco
of any Purchase Order placed after the Agreement has expired will not be
considered as an extension of the term of the Agreement nor a renewal thereof.
Notwithstanding Cisco’s right to extend the term of the Agreement, each party
acknowledges that the Agreement shall always be interpreted as being limited in
duration to a definite term and that the other party has made no commitments
whatsoever regarding the renewal of the Agreement beyond those expressly agreed
in writing.

8.
This Amendment may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which when
so executed and delivered will be an original and all of which together will
constitute one and the same instrument. Facsimile signatures and electronic
signatures will be deemed to be equivalent to original signatures for the
purpose of this Amendment.

contract obligations under any schedule contract.
