 Reference is hereby made to that certain Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement dated as of September 29, 2008 (as amended, restated, supplemented, or modified from time to time, the “Loan Agreement”), by and among Bell Microproducts Inc., a California corporation (“Administrative Borrower”), Bell Microproducts – Future Tech, Inc., a California corporation (“Future Tech”), Rorke Data, Inc., a Minnesota corporation (“Rorke”), Bell Microproducts Canada – Tenex Data ULC, a Nova Scotia unlimited liability company (“Tenex”), Total Tec Systems, Inc., a New Jersey corporation (“Total Tec”), Forefront Graphics US Inc., an Ontario corporation (“Forefront” and together with Administrative Borrower, Future-Tech, Rorke, Tenex and Total Tec, individually, a “Borrower” and collectively, “Borrowers”), Bell Microproducts Canada Inc., a California corporation (“Bell Micro Canada”), Bell Microproducts Mexico Shareholder, LLC, a Florida limited liability company (“Mexico Shareholder” and together with Bell Micro Canada, collectively, “Guarantors”), the financial institutions from time to time parties thereto as lenders (each individually, a “Lender” and collectively, “Lenders”), Wachovia Capital Finance Corporation (Western), in its capacity as administrative agent for the Lenders (in such capacity, “Agent”), Wachovia Capital Markets, LLC in its capacity as lead arranger and sole bookrunner, and Bank of America, N.A., in its capacity as co-agent.  Initially capitalized terms used herein without definition shall have the meaning set forth in the Loan Agreement.
 
 Certain Events of Default have occurred and are continuing under the Loan Agreement due to: (a) the existence of intercompany receivables during the period of January 2010 through (but not including) the date hereof owing by Affiliates of Borrowers to Borrowers in excess of the amount permitted under Section 9.10(n) of the Loan Agreement; and (b) certain “Existing Defaults” (as defined in the waiver letter attached hereto as Exhibit A) occurring with respect to the Indebtedness of New ProSys and Old ProSys on account of the $75,000,000 flooring line provided by GE Finance (the “GE Flooring Line”) to New ProSys and Old ProSys (collectively, the “Known Existing Defaults”).  Borrowers have requested that Agent and the Lenders waive the Known Existing Defaults.  Agent and the Lenders hereby waive the Known Existing Defaults so long as the waiver letter attached hereto as Exhibit A is an effective waiver of the “Existing Defaults” (as defined in such waiver letter); provided, however, that nothing herein shall be deemed a waiver with respect to any other defaults under the GE Flooring Line, or failure of any Borrower or any Guarantor to comply fully with Section 9.10 or any other requirement of the Loan Agreement in any other respect.  This waiver shall be effective only for the specific Events of Default (including the specific time period of such Events of Default) comprising the Known Existing Defaults, and in no event shall this waiver be deemed to be a waiver of enforcement of Agent’s or any Lender’s rights with respect to any other Events of Default now existing or hereafter arising.
 
 Except as specifically set forth herein, nothing contained in this letter agreement shall (A) amend, modify or alter any term or condition of the Loan Agreement or any of the Financing Agreements, or (B) diminish, prejudice or waive any of Agent’s or any Lender’s rights and remedies under the Loan Agreement, any of the Financing Agreements, or applicable law, and Agent and Lenders hereby reserve all of such rights and remedies, including, without limitation, the right to require, at any date hereafter, strict compliance with Section 9.10 of the Loan Agreement.
 
 This letter agreement shall be construed under and governed by the laws of the State of California, and may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties on separate counterparts.  Each of such counterparts shall be deemed to be an original, and all of such counterparts, taken together, shall constitute but one and the same agreement.  Delivery of an executed counterpart of this letter agreement by telefacsimile or electronic transmission of a “pdf” (or other such viewable, printable data file) shall be equally effective as delivery of a manually executed original counterpart.

 RE: Notice of Default and Waiver
 
 Dear Ms. Clery
 
 Reference is made to that certain Agreement for Wholesale Financing by and between ProSys Information Systems, Inc. and New ProSys Corp. (individually and collectively, "Dealer" and GE Commercial Distribution Finance Corporation ("CDF'') dated as of October 14, 2005 and that certain Business Financing Agreement by and between Dealer and CDF dated as of October 14, 2005, and all amendments, program letters, agreements and other documents executed in connection therewith (collectively, the "Agreement").  Any guarantor of Dealer's obligations under the Agreement is hereby notified of the matters contained herein and any demand made upon Dealer hereunder is likewise made upon any such guarantor.
 
 CDF hereby notifies you that Dealer is in breach of the Agreement due to the following events: (i) Dealer has failed to maintain a Tangible Net Worth and Subordinated Debt in the combined amount of not less than $9,000,000.00, pursuant to Dealer's financial statement for the period ending on December 31, 2009, Dealer's actual Tangible Net Worth and Subordinated Debt for that period was equal to ($5,100,000.00); and (ii) there has been a Default or an Event of Default by Parent under the Parent Credit Agreement, pursuant to Parent's financial statements for the periods ending on January 31, 2010, and February 28, 2010.  Parent's Latin America subsidiary transferred cash in excess of the amount allowed under the Parent Credit Agreement (the "Existing Defaults''). Such violations of the terms of the Agreement constitute Defaults thereunder.
 
 As a result of Dealer being fully compliant with the covenant requirements as of the date of this letter, CDF will waive its rights and remedies under the Agreement and/or applicable law with respect to the Existing Defaults conditioned upon (i) Dealer's payment of a waiver fee in an amount acceptable to CDF, (ii) the accuracy of the financial statements submitted by Dealer; and (iii) the existence of no other Default at any time.  Such waiver does not apply to any other Default.
 
 Should you have any questions relating to the above described Existing Defaults, or the requirements of your future performance under the Agreement, please contact the undersigned at 770-850'4009 at your earliest convenience.
 
 Sincerely,
 
 GE COMMERCIAL DISTRIBUTION FINANCE CORPORATION
