 B.        The Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the undersigned Lenders wish to amend the Credit Agreement and waive certain provisions

 Now, therefore, in consideration of the mutual execution

restated, modified or supplemented from time to time.

series of transactions pursuant to which certain Foreign Subsidiaries of the Borrower will be recapitalized and reorganized under the ownership of ScanSource Europe CV, a limited partnership organized under the laws of the Netherlands, all as more

 “First Amendment Effective Date” shall mean October 30, 2009.

 (c)        Indebtedness (i) of any Full Credit Party owing to any other Full Credit Party, (ii) of any Full Credit Party owing to any Subsidiary which is not a Full Credit Party, which

Borrower owing to any Subsidiary which is not a Credit Party, which Indebtedness is subordinated to the Obligations on terms reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, (v) of ScanSource Europe SPRL and ScanSource Europe Limited owed
to the Borrower contributed by the Borrower to the capital of ScanSource Europe CV as a part of the European Restructuring in an aggregate principal amount of up to $45,000,000 (such actual amount being the “SPRL Receivable Amount” and
such Indebtedness being the “SPRL Receivable”), (vi) of ScanSource Europe BV to ScanSource Europe CV in an aggregate principal amount of up to the SPRL Receivable Amount (such Indebtedness representing consideration for the transfer
to ScanSource Europe CV of the SPRL Receivable) plus $5,000,000 (or such lesser cash amount as is contributed by the Borrower to ScanSource Europe CV after the First Amendment Effective Date), (vii) Indebtedness of any Subsidiary which is not a
Full Credit Party owing to a Credit Party in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding not to exceed $35,000,000; and (viii) Indebtedness of Subsidiaries which are not Credit Parties owed to a Subsidiary Borrower which is not a Full
Credit Party in an aggregate principal amount which at no time is in excess of the aggregate principal amount of Indebtedness of such Subsidiary Borrower which is then owing to Full Credit Parties and which is permitted by (and included in the
computation of the amount permitted by) Section 6.01(c)(vii). 
 (c)        Section 6.04 is amended by adding a new clause (j) as follows and renumbering clause 6.04(k) as clause 6.04 (l):

 - 2 - 








 
debt or equity investment by the Borrower in ScanSource Europe CV not exceeding $5,000,000 in the aggregate; and 
 (d)        Section VIII is amended by adding the following sentence
to the penultimate paragraph thereof: 
 Without limiting the foregoing, the Collateral Agent is authorized to
enter into the Dutch Pledge Agreement and exercise its rights thereunder. 
 (e)        A new Section 9.18 is added reading as follows: 
 SECTION 9.18        Parallel Debt Provisions 
 (a)        For the purpose of ensuring and preserving the validity and enforceability of any of the security rights created under the Dutch Pledge Agreement, each
of the Full Credit Parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally undertakes to pay to the Collateral Agent an amount equal to the aggregate amount payable by such Credit Party in respect of its Secured Obligations as they may exist from time to
time (each undertaking, a “Parallel Debt”). Each Parallel Debt will be payable in the currency of the relevant Secured Obligation. Each Parallel Debt of a Credit Party will become due and payable as and when one or more of the Secured
Obligations of such Credit Party become due and payable. 
 (b)        Each of the parties hereto hereby acknowledges that: (i) each Parallel Debt constitutes an undertaking, obligation and liability of the applicable Credit Party to the Collateral Agent
which is separate and independent from, and without prejudice to, the Secured Obligations; and (ii) each Parallel Debt represents the Collateral Agent’s own separate and independent claim to receive payment of that Parallel Debt from the
relevant Credit Party, it being understood, in each case, that the amount which may become payable by a Credit Party as its Parallel Debt shall never exceed the total of the amounts which are payable under the Secured Obligations of such Credit
Party. 
 (c)        For the avoidance of doubt, the
Parties confirm that the claim of the Collateral Agent against a Credit Party in respect of a Parallel Debt and the claims of any one or more of the Secured Creditors against such Credit Party in respect of the Secured Obligations payable by such
Credit Party to such Secured Creditors do not constitute common property (gemeenschap) within the meaning of article 3:166 of the Dutch Civil Code and that the provisions relating to common property shall not apply. If, however, it shall be held
that the claim of the Collateral Agent and the claims of any one or more of the Secured Creditors do constitute common property and the provisions of common property do apply, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent agree that
this Agreement shall constitute the administration agreement (beheersregeling) within the meaning of article 3:168 of the Dutch Civil Code. 
 (d)        To the extent the Collateral Agent irrevocably receives any amount in payment of the Parallel Debt of a Credit Party, the
Collateral Agent

  

 - 3 - 








 
shall distribute that amount among the Secured Creditors that are creditors in respect of the corresponding Secured Obligations of such Credit Party (subject, if applicable, to
Section 9.17). Upon irrevocable receipt by a Secured Creditor of any amount so distributed to it (a “Received Amount”), the Secured Obligations of the applicable Credit Party to such Secured Creditor shall be reduced by an amount
(a “Deductible Amount”) equal to the Received Amount in the manner as if the Deductible Amount were received as a payment of the Secured Obligations on the date of receipt by such Secured Creditor of the Received Amount. 

2.        Consent.   The Administrative Agent, the Collateral
Agent and the Lenders hereby consent to the European Restructuring, including but not limited to (a) the transfer of the Equity Interests of ScanSource Europe Limited to ScanSource Europe CV as a part of the European Restructuring, (b) the
investment by the Borrower of up to $50,000,000 in ScanSource Europe CV and the subsequent investment by ScanSource Europe CV of up to $5,000,000 in ScanSource Europe BV; provided that a portion of the investment by ScanSource in ScanSource Europe
CV will consist of a contribution of the SPRL Receivable to the capital of ScanSource Europe CV; and (c) following the transfer of the Equity Interests of ScanSource Europe Limited to ScanSource Europe CV, the termination of the existence of
ScanSource Europe Limited, whether by dissolution, liquidation, merger, amalgamation or other equivalent transaction. The Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders hereby further agree that, concurrently with the transfer of the
Equity Interests of ScanSource Europe Limited to ScanSource Europe CV, all Liens of the Collateral Agent upon the Equity Interests of ScanSource Europe Limited shall be automatically released. 
 3.        Waiver.   The Lenders hereby (a) waive any breach
of Section 6.01 (Indebtedness), 6.03 (Asset Dispositions), 6.04 (Investments) or 6.07 (Transactions with Affiliates) of the Credit Agreement arising solely out of the European Restructuring and (b) waive any breach of Section 6.01 or
6.04 of the Credit Agreement arising out of the making of intercompany loans by the Borrower to ScanSource Europe Limited and ScanSource Europe, SPRL prior to the Effective Date at no time exceeding $60,000,000 in outstanding aggregate principal
amount, of which $30,000,000 was outstanding as of September 30, 2009 and intercompany loans by ScanSource Europe, Limited to ScanSource Communications, Limited and ScanSource Europe SPRL prior to the date hereof at no time exceeding
$25,000,000 in outstanding aggregate principal amount and (c) waive any Default or Event of Default which would not have arisen had such intercompany loans been permitted by the terms of the Credit Agreement as it originally came into effect on
September 28, 2007. For the avoidance of doubt, Indebtedness and investments which are consented to or waived in this or the preceding Section which are incurred or made on or after the Effective Date must be permitted by Sections 6.01 and 6.04
of the Credit Agreement as amended hereby and are not to be deemed allowed in addition to the Indebtedness and investments permitted thereby. 
 4.        Joinder.   On the Effective Date the Collateral Agent shall be joined as a party to the Credit Agreement and shall have the rights and
obligations of the Collateral Agent specified therein. 
 5.        Amendment to Security Agreement.   The Collateral Agent and the Credit Parties which are “Grantors” under the Security Agreement hereby agree that all references
in

  

 - 4 - 








 
Section 5.7 of the Security Agreement to “Pledged Collateral” shall hereafter be deemed references to all collateral which is pledged pursuant to the Pledge Agreement. The Lenders
consent to such amendment. 
 6.        Amendment to Pledge
Agreement.   The Collateral Agent and Credit Parties which are “Pledgors” under the Pledge Agreement dated as of September 28, 2007 agree that on the Effective Date the Pledge Agreement is amended as follows: 

(a)        The following sentence is added at the conclusion of Section 26:

 Notwithstanding the foregoing, on the First Amendment Effective Date certain of the Credit Parties and the
Collateral Agent are entering into the Dutch Pledge Agreement to assure perfection of the Lien of such agreement. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and the provisions of the Dutch Pledge Agreement with respect the
subject matter thereof, the terms of the Dutch Pledge Agreement shall govern. 
 7.        Notice.   Pursuant to Section 5.11(b) of the Credit Agreement the Borrower hereby gives notice that upon consummation of the European Restructuring ScanSource Europe CV
will become a Material Foreign Subsidiary. 
 8.        Representations and Warranties of the Borrowers.   Each of the Borrowers represents and warrants that: 
 (a)        The execution, delivery and performance by each Borrower
of this Amendment have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action and that this Amendment is a legal, valid and binding obligation of each Borrower enforceable against such Borrower in accordance with its terms, except as the enforcement
thereof may be subject to the effect of any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or similar law affecting creditors’ rights generally; 
 (b)        Each of the representations and warranties contained in
the Credit Agreement (treating this Amendment and the Dutch Pledge Agreement as Credit Documents for purposes thereof) is true and correct in all material respects on and as of the date hereof as if made on the date hereof except to the extent such
representations and warranties specifically relate to an earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties shall have been true on and as of such earlier date; and 
 (c)        After giving effect to this Amendment, no Default or
Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

 9.        Effective Date.
  This Amendment shall become effective upon the execution and delivery hereof by the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders (without respect to whether it has been executed and delivered by all the Lenders); provided
that Sections 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 hereof shall not become effective until the time (the “Effective Date”) when the following additional conditions have also been satisfied: 
 (a)        Each of the Credit Parties has executed and delivered a
reaffirmation of Guaranty and Security Documents in the form of Exhibit A hereto. 
 (b)        The Borrower shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent an executed Termination Letter in the form of Exhibit C to the Credit Agreement with respect to ScanSource Europe Limited.

reflecting the pledge by the Borrower of 65% of the Equity Interests of ScanSource Europe CV.

 In the event the Effective Date has not occurred on or before November 30, 2009, Sections 1 and 2 hereof shall not become operative and shall be of no force or effect. 
 10.        Reference to and Effect Upon the Credit Agreement. 
 (a)        Except as specifically amended or waived above, the
Credit Agreement and the other Credit Documents shall remain in full force and effect and are hereby ratified and confirmed. 
 (b)        The execution, delivery and effectiveness of this Amendment shall not operate as a waiver of any right, power or remedy of the Administrative Agent or
any Lender under the Credit Agreement or any Credit Document, nor constitute a waiver of any provision of the Credit Agreement or any Credit Document, except as specifically set forth herein. Upon the effectiveness of this Amendment, each reference
in the Credit Agreement to “this Agreement”, “hereunder”, “hereof”, “herein” or words of similar import shall mean and be a reference to the Credit Agreement as amended hereby.
