ARROW ELECTRONICS STOCK OWNERSHIP PLAN

INTRODUCTION

          As used herein, the term “Plan” means the Arrow Electronics Stock Ownership Plan,
initially adopted effective January 1, 1974 (as the Employee Stock Ownership Plan for the
Employees of Arrow Electronics, Inc.) and amended from time to time. The Plan was amended
effective as of January 1, 1977 to include a TRASOP, and it then comprised: (a) as Part I,
the Plan substantially as in effect theretofore, with changes deemed advisable in light of the
adoption of the TRASOP, and further changes deemed necessary or advisable in order to comply
with applicable law; and (b) Part II, a TRASOP administered by means of accounts separate from
the accounts established pursuant to Part I. Arrow Electronics, Inc. and its participating
subsidiaries adopted and have maintained the Plan for the purpose of giving eligible employees
an interest in the business of Arrow Electronics, Inc. through indirect stock ownership, with
the benefits and risks attendant upon stock ownership.

          The Plan was further amended and restated effective as of June 1, 1979 and January 7,
1980. Effective as of June 1, 1982, the Plan was amended and restated to include as Part III
a Capital Accumulation Plan administered by means of accounts separate from the accounts
established pursuant to Part I and Part II. Effective as of January 1, 1983, the Plan was
further amended and restated to make changes in Part II deemed necessary or advisable in order
to comply with the provisions of applicable law that substituted a payroll-based tax credit
employee stock ownership plan (“PAYSOP”) for a TRASOP, and further changes deemed necessary or
advisable in light of the adoption of Part III of the Plan and of changes in applicable law.

          Pursuant to a restatement dated January 1, 1985, the Plan was further amended to comply
with applicable law and to reflect the adoption by the Company of two new plans (the “New
Plans”), the Arrow Electronics ESOP and the Arrow Electronics Capital Accumulation Plan, both
effective as of January 1, 1984. The Arrow Electronics ESOP was a qualified stock bonus plan
within the meaning of section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the
“Code”), and an employee stock ownership plan as defined in section 4975(e)(7) of the Code and
regulations and rulings thereunder, and section 407(d)(6) of the Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”) and regulations and rulings thereunder (an “ESOP”).

          Membership in Parts I and III of the Plan was closed after the Entry Date of July l, 1983
and no contributions were made to Part I or Part III for any Year ending after December 31,
1983. Members of the Plan who were eligible became members of the New Plans as of December
31, 1983. Other eligible individuals subsequently became members of the New Plans in
accordance with the terms thereof. Part II of the Plan remained open to new Members in
accordance with its terms, but no Company contributions were made to it after that for the
Year ended December 31, 1986. The cessation of contributions was the result of the
termination of the tax credit formerly provided under section 41 of the 1954 Code (and
predecessor statutes).

 

 

          The Plan was further amended and restated effective as of the close of business on
December 31, 1988 for the following purposes: (i) to delete Part III and to transfer all
assets and liabilities thereof to a separate plan called the Arrow Electronics Savings Plan;
(ii) to combine Parts I and II and to merge the Arrow Electronics ESOP into the Plan as thus
amended, and to make further changes deemed necessary or advisable in light of the merger,
including changing the name of the Plan to the Arrow Electronics Stock Ownership Plan; and
(iii) to make changes deemed necessary or advisable to comply with changes in applicable law,
effective on such dates as required by law, and to make other changes deemed desirable in
order to effect the purposes of the Plan. Provisions of this document having effective dates
prior to December 31, 1988 govern Parts I and II of the Plan as constituted prior thereto and
the Arrow Electronics ESOP. The Plan is designated as an employee stock ownership plan as
defined in section 4975(e)(7) of the Code and regulations and rulings thereunder, and is
designed to invest primarily in qualifying employer securities within the meaning of section
409(1) of the Code.

          The Plan was further amended and restated to incorporate further amendments adopted
through December 28, 1994 in order to make changes deemed necessary or advisable to comply
with changes in applicable law, effective as of such dates as are required by law, and to make
other changes deemed desirable in order to effect the purposes of the Plan.

          The Plan was further amended and restated February 15, 2002, to include additional
amendments, including those deemed necessary or advisable to comply with the provisions of the
Uruguay Round Agreements Act (also referred to as GATT), the Small Business Job Protection Act
of 1996, the Taxpayer Relief Act of 1997, the IRS Restructuring and Reform Act of 1998, and
the Community Renewal Tax Relief Act of 2000, as well as other amendments determined by the
Company to be appropriate to further the purposes of the Plan, and to eliminate certain
provisions no longer necessary, including those distinguishing Class Year Accounts (which have
all become fully vested and no longer require separate accounting) from the General Accounts
and most special provisions relating to PAYSOP Accounts, which are consolidated into General
Accounts where applicable to create a single Account for each Member on and after January 1,
2001.

          On March 17, 2003, the Plan was further amended and restated to effect certain plan
design changes, eliminate additional “deadwood” provisions, and to reflect the provisions of
the Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2001, effective as of January 1, 2002
or as otherwise expressly set forth or required by law, provided that clarifications of
existing provisions are effective as of the same dates as the provisions which they clarify.
Additional changes were adopted by amendments dated March 7, 2005, October 24, 2005 (in order
to reflect the change in the automatic cashout provisions), and September 5, 2005 (directing
changes in the definition of “Spouse” and the effect of divorce or other events on beneficiary
designations).

          The Plan is now further amended and restated to include the foregoing amendments
(including the formal and fuller language contemplated by those of September 5, 2005) and a
revision of the definition of “Compensation” approved by the Management Pension Investment and
Oversight Committee on September 17, 2006, and to make changes

required or deemed advisable under the Pension Protection Act of 2006. The Plan as so
amended and restated reads as set forth below. References herein to sections that have been
renumbered as a result of any of the foregoing changes shall, where the context requires,
include references to corresponding sections of the Plan as previously in effect.

that end may, in its discretion, adopt such rules, presumptions and procedures permitted by
applicable law as it shall deem appropriate or desirable;

                    (b) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, to provide that the regularly scheduled
working hours to be credited under Sections 1.21.2, 1.21.3 and 1.21.4 to an Employee without a
regular work schedule shall be determined on the basis of a 40-hour work week, or an 8-hour work
day, or on any other reasonable basis which reflects the average hours worked by the Employee or by
other Employees in the same job classification over a representative period of time, provided that
the basis so used is consistently applied with respect to all Employees within the same job
classifications, reasonably defined.

               1.21.8 Monthly Equivalency. An Employee who customarily works for an Employer for 20
or more hours per week throughout each Year (except for holidays and vacations) shall be credited

credit for the Hours of Service which would have been credited to such individual but for such
absence, or, in any case in which such Hours cannot be determined, eight Hours of Service per day
of such absence, but in no event more than 501 Hours of Service. Such Hours of Service shall be
credited (a) only in the Year in which the absence begins if necessary to prevent a One-Year Break
in Service in that Year, or (b) in all other cases, in the following Year. For purposes of this
Section 1.24, “maternity or paternity absence” means an absence from active employment beginning on

Service, provided he is then an Employee. The first consecutive 12-month period taken into account
for this purpose shall start on the date on which he first performs an Hour of Service described in

employment with (a) an Affiliate or (b) an Employer in a position ineligible for membership in the
Plan, he shall not be deemed to have retired or terminated his employment for the purposes of the
Plan until such time as he is employed neither by an Employer nor by any Affiliate. Such a Member
shall be eligible to share in contributions and forfeitures under the Plan for the Year of such
transfer, provided that he remains an employee of an Employer or any Controlled Group Affiliate as
of the last day of that Year, or he ceased to be such an employee during the Year by reason of
death or Disability, or on or after attainment of his Normal Retirement Date, but he shall not be
eligible to share in contributions or forfeitures for subsequent Years unless and until he returns
to employment as an Employee in a position not excluded from active membership pursuant to Section

in Service exceeds the number of Years in which he had not less than one thousand (1,000) Hours of

credited shall thereafter be disregarded for all purposes. In all other cases, an employee who is
rehired shall retain credit for his prior Hours of Service and Years of Service in determining both
eligibility to become a Member and vesting, and if previously a Member, shall qualify as a Member
immediately upon rehire as an Employee; and any such employee who meets the age and service
requirements for Membership in this Plan as of an Entry Date during a period of absence from
employment shall become a Member upon the termination of such absence if he is then an Employee.

shares as of the last day of such Year.

          3.4 Contributions Conditional. Notwithstanding any other provisions of the Plan or
the Trust Agreement, all contributions under the Plan are conditioned on the deductibility of such

a Year (a “Participating Member”) only if he has not less than 1,000 Hours of Service during
such Year; provided, however, that if such Member retires at or after Normal Retirement Date or,
effective January 1, 2002, his “Early Retirement Date” as defined in Section 4.3, suffers
Disability or dies during such Year, the 1,000 Hours of Service requirement shall be pro-rated.

          4.3 Allocation of Contributions and Forfeitures. As of the last day of each Year, the
Common Stock contributed for that Year, or purchased with cash contributions for that Year, or
attributable to forfeitures for that Year, shall be allocated to the Accounts of all Members who
are Employees as of the last day of that Year or whose employment terminated during that Year (a)
at or after attaining either their Normal Retirement Date or effective for Members retiring on or
after January 1, 2002, their “Early Retirement Date” (which shall be the first date on which they
are at least age 60 and have completed at least 10 Years of Service), or (b) on account of death or
Disability, and are Participating Members. Such Common Stock shall be allocated in the ratio which
the Compensation of each Participating Member bears to the total Compensation of all Participating
Members for such Year. In allocating forfeitures of Common Stock, the Committee shall allocate
each Category of Common Stock proportionately to the Accounts of each Member to whom forfeited
Common Stock is allocated.

          4.4 Crediting the Earnings and Other Amounts Received in Respect of Common Stock. All
distributions (except distributions of Common Stock) received in respect of Common Stock previously
allocated to Members’ Accounts, including, without limitation, cash dividends, shall, to the extent
not applied toward payment of an Exempt Loan in accordance with Section 15.3, be applied to the
purchase of Common Stock which shall be credited to the Accounts of Members in proportion to the
amount of Common Stock held in such Accounts when such distributions accrued. All distributions
(except distributions of Common Stock) received in respect of Common Stock not previously allocated
to Members’ Accounts, but subsequently allocated as of the close of the Year, shall, to the extent
not applied toward payment of an Exempt Loan in accordance with Section 15.3, be applied to the
purchase of Common Stock which shall be credited to the Accounts of Participating Members (as
defined in Section 4.2) as of the end of the Year in proportion to the crediting of such
unallocated Common Stock to Members’ Accounts at the end of the Year, except as otherwise provided
in Section 4.7. Distributions with respect to which there is an ex-dividend date shall be deemed
to accrue on the first day on which the Common Stock sells ex-dividend.

          In the event that the distribution received in respect of Common Stock previously
allocated to Members’ Accounts is additional Common Stock, such additional Common Stock shall
be allocated to the Accounts of Members in proportion to the amount of Common Stock in their
Accounts when the right to such additional Common Stock accrues.

          In the event that the distribution received in respect of Common Stock not previously
allocated to Members’ Accounts, but subsequently allocated as of the close of the Year, is
additional Common Stock, such additional Common Stock shall be allocated to the Accounts of
Participating Members in proportion to the allocation at the end of the Year of such
previously unallocated Common Stock, except as otherwise provided in Section 4.7.

- 15 -

 

          All distributions received in respect of Common Stock held in the Suspense Account and
not allocated to Members’ Accounts at or before the close of the Year, to the extent not
applied toward repayment of an Exempt Loan in accordance with Section 15.3, shall (unless made
in the form of Common Stock) be applied to the purchase of Common Stock, and the Common Stock
so purchased (or distributed) shall be credited to the Accounts of Participating Members as of
the end of the Year in the proportion in which they are eligible to share in Employer
contributions for such Year as provided in Section 4.3 except as otherwise provided in Section
4.7.

          Distributions described in this Section 4.4 may not be used to pay an Exempt Loan except
to the extent permitted under Section 15.3. To the extent so used, the foregoing provisions
of this Section 4.4 shall not apply, and such distributions shall be treated as applied to
purchase the Common Stock withdrawn from the Suspense Account by reason of such payment, and
such Common Stock shall be allocated as provided in Section 4.6.

          4.5 Reallocation of Common Stock. Common Stock once allocated to the Account of a
Member shall not be reallocated to the Account of any other Member except as follows:

               4.5.1 Forfeited Common Stock. Common Stock forfeited by Members shall be reallocated
as provided in Section 4.3.

               4.5.2 Cash Distributed In Lieu of Common Stock. In the event that the Trustee
distributes cash in lieu of a fractional share of Common Stock in a Member’s Account, this Common
Stock shall, for purposes of allocation to the Accounts of other Members, be treated as having been
purchased by the Trustee during the Year in which such distribution is made for the amount so
distributed in cash. However, the Common Stock so allocated by the Trustee shall remain in the
same Category of Common Stock in the Accounts of the Members to whom reallocated as it was in the
Account of the Member to whom previously allocated.

          4.6 Common Stock Withdrawn from the Suspense Account. Common Stock withdrawn from the
Suspense Account for any Year pursuant to Section 15.7 shall be allocated as of the last day of
such Year among Members in the following manner:

               4.6.1 Employer Contributions. To the extent that such Common Stock was withdrawn from
the Suspense Account by reason of Employer contributions for such Year, or by reason of earnings on
Plan assets held in the Suspense Account and not allocated to Members’ Accounts on or before the
end of such Year, such Common Stock shall be allocated among Participating Members for such Year in
the proportion in which they are eligible to share in Employer contributions for such Year as
provided in Section 4.3.

               4.6.2 Income on Common Stock. To the extent that such Common Stock was withdrawn from
the Suspense Account by reason of dividends or other distributions on Common Stock allocated to
Members’ Accounts on or before the last day of such Year, such Common Stock shall be allocated
among Members in proportion to their respective interests in the Common Stock in respect of which
such dividends or other distributions were made, in the manner provided in Section 4.4.

- 16 -

 

          4.7 Maximum Limitation. If the total allocation to a Member’s Account in any one Year
under Section 4.3 and (with respect to allocations of earnings and other amounts received in
respect of Common Stock not previously allocated to Members’ Accounts) Section 4.4 and Section
4.6.1 would exceed the limitations set forth in Section 3.3, such excess shall be used to reduce
contributions (including allocation of any forfeitures) for such Member in the next Year and each
succeeding Year if necessary; provided, if the Member is not covered by this Plan at the end of the
Year, the portion exceeding the limitations set forth in Section 3.3 shall be held by the Trustee
in escrow (with the Plan as beneficiary) to be allocated to the Members’ Accounts in the next
succeeding Year or Years in the manner set forth in Section 4.3, and in proportion to the
Compensation for such later Year or Years, as soon as permitted after giving effect to Section 3.3.
Any distributions or other earnings received for any Year on assets remaining in such escrow as of
the close of such Year shall also be held in such escrow. In the event of a termination of the
Plan, unallocated amounts held in such escrow shall be allocated to the extent possible under this
Article IV for the Year of termination. Any amount remaining in such escrow upon termination of
the Plan shall then be returned to the Company or other Employer, notwithstanding any other
provision of the Plan or Trust Agreement.

          4.8 Administration of Accounts. Contributions, forfeitures and Common Stock withdrawn
from the Suspense Account shall be allocated annually as of the close of each Year. All other
allocations provided for in this Article IV shall be made quarterly, semi-annually or annually, as
directed by the Committee.

          4.9 Voting of Common Stock.

               4.9.1 Members’ Rights. Each Member shall have the right to direct the Trustee as to
the manner in which shares of Common Stock allocated to his Account are to be voted. The Company
shall furnish the Trustee and the Members with notices and information statements when voting
rights are to be exercised, in such time and manner as may be required by applicable law and the
Company’s Certificate of Incorporation and By-Laws. Such statements shall be substantially the
same for Members as for holders of Common Stock in general. The Member may, in his discretion,
grant proxies for the exercise of his voting rights under this Section 4.9 in accordance with proxy
provisions of general application. The Trustee shall vote such Common Stock in accordance with the
direction of the Member or, if permitted by the Member, in its sole discretion. Fractional shares
of Common Stock allocated to Members’ Accounts shall be combined to the largest number of whole
shares and voted by the Trustee to reflect to the extent possible the voting direction of the
Members holding fractional shares.

               4.9.2 Vote by Trustee. Any Common Stock held in escrow under Section 4.7 or in the
Suspense Account under Section 15.7, or otherwise not allocated to a Member’s Account at the time
of reference, and any Common Stock with respect to which a Member (or his Beneficiary) has voting
rights under this Section 4.9 that are not timely and properly exercised, may be voted by the
Trustee in its sole discretion. Whenever the Trustee may vote any Common Stock in its sole
discretion under this Section 4.9, the Trustee shall do so in a manner that the Trustee judges to
be in the best interest of the Members and their Beneficiaries. This may include, if the Trustee
judges it appropriate, the voting of such Common

- 17 -

 

Stock so as to reflect the voting directions given by the Members with respect to Common Stock
with respect to which they have voting rights under this Section 4.9.

               4.9.3 Rights of Beneficiaries. All rights of Members under this Section 4.9 shall,
upon the death of a Member, be exercisable by such Member’s Beneficiary until such time as the
Member’s Account shall have been fully distributed to such Beneficiary.

               4.9.4 Tender Offers, etc. In the event of a tender offer for Common Stock, the rules
set forth above (with such modifications as may be appropriate to reflect the difference between a
vote and a response to an offer) shall govern the response by the Trustee. Accordingly, the
Trustee shall make appropriate arrangements for the Members (or their Beneficiaries) to be
furnished with information provided by the offeror or others to holders of Common Stock in
connection with the offer and advise the Members (or their Beneficiaries) that the Trustee will
respond to the offer with respect to Common Stock allocated to each Member’s Account in accordance
with timely instructions provided by the Member (or Beneficiary) to an agent appointed by the
Trustee for the purpose in accordance with the procedures prescribed by the Trustee. For any Common
Stock with respect to which a Member (or Beneficiary) fails to provide such instructions, and any
Common Stock not allocated to a Member’s Account, the Trustee shall either respond to the offer in
such manner as it deems prudent and in the best interests of the Members and their Beneficiaries or
appoint an independent fiduciary (who may serve as a named fiduciary, an investment manager within
the meaning of section 3(38) of ERISA, or co-trustee for such purpose). The Trustee shall also be
entitled in its discretion to appoint an independent fiduciary to vote shares of Common Stock with
respect to which no voting instructions are timely received by the agent appointed by the Trustee
in accordance with applicable procedures, or which are not allocated to Members’ Accounts, in the
event of a proxy contest or similar major matter requiring a vote by Members.

          4.10 Vesting.

               4.10.1 Normal Retirement, Disability or Death. Upon a Member’s Termination of
Employment on account of death or Disability, or upon his attainment of his Normal Retirement Date
(or any higher age) while employed by an Employer or an Affiliate, his Account shall have a Vested
Percentage of 100%.

               4.10.2 Vesting Schedule. Upon a Member’s Termination of Employment for a reason other
than death, retirement at or after his Normal Retirement Date, or Disability, he shall be entitled
to receive the Vested Percentage of the balance in his Account, determined on the basis of the
Member’s Years of Service, as follows:

     The portion of a Member’s Account attributable to contributions for Plan Years beginning on or
after January 1, 2007 (“post-2006 Account”) shall vest as follows:

	 	 	 	 	 
	Years of Service	 	Vested Percentage
	Less than 2 years
	 	 	0	%
	2 years but less than 3
	 	 	20	%
	3 years but less than 4
	 	 	40	%

- 18 -

 

	 	 	 	 	 
	4 years but less than 5
	 	 	60	%
	5 or more years
	 	 	100	%

- 19 -

 

The portion of a Member’s Account attributable to contributions for Plan Years ending prior to
January 1, 2007 shall vest as follows:

	 	 	 	 	 
	Years of Service	 	Vested Percentage
	5 or more
	 	 	100	%
	less than 5
	 	 	0	%

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Member who had a vested or partially vested account under Part I
of the Plan on January 1, 1984, or who had a PAYSOP Account transferred to his Account as of
January 1, 2001, shall have a Vested Percentage of 100%, without regard of his actual Years of
Service.

          4.11 Diversification of Investments.

               4.11.1 Definitions. For purposes of this Section 4.11, “Qualified Member” means a
Member who has attained age 55 and who has completed 10 Years of Membership in the Plan, and
“Qualified Election Period” means the six-Year period beginning the Year in which the Member first
becomes a Qualified Member.

               4.11.2 Election by Qualified Member. Effective January 1, 2002, if the fair market
value of the Common Stock ever allocated to the Accounts of a Qualified Member exceeds $500 at the
end of a Year in such Member’s Qualified Election Period, then all shares of Common Stock acquired
by the Plan and ever allocated to the Accounts of the Qualified Member shall be subject to a
diversification election within 90 days of such Year-end and within 90 days of the end of each
remaining Year in the Qualified Member’s Qualified Election Period. Within each such 90-day period
except the last one, the Qualified Member shall be permitted to direct the Plan to transfer to the
Arrow Electronics Savings Plan a number of shares up to (a) 25% of the total number of shares of
Common Stock acquired by the Plan and ever allocated to the Accounts of the Qualified Member on or
before the last day of the Year just ended, less (b) the number of such shares previously
distributed, transferred, or diversified pursuant to an election made under this Section 4.11.2.
In the last election permitted to a Qualified Member, “50%” shall be substituted for “25%” in
clause (a) of the preceding sentence. The Qualified Member’s direction to the Plan shall be given
in such manner and at such time as the Committee shall prescribe.

               4.11.3 Additional Diversification. The Committee may in its discretion permit
Qualified Members to direct the Plan to diversify, in the manner set out in Section 4.11.2, a
number of shares greater than the number specified in such Section; provided, that any such
additional diversification shall be made available to Qualified Members in a manner that does not
discriminate in favor of Highly Compensated Employees.

               4.11.4 Transfer of Account. Whenever a Qualified Member makes an election pursuant to
Section 4.11.2, the Committee shall within 90 days of the end of the Qualified Member’s 90-day
election period sell the number of shares for which diversification has been elected and transfer
the proceeds, net of brokerage fees, to the Qualified Member’s

- 20 -

 

rollover contributions account in the Arrow Electronics Savings Plan. In lieu of such a sale,
the Committee may credit the Qualified Member with cash derived from contributions or dividends in
an amount equal to the value of such shares, and apply the cash to the Arrow Electronics Savings
Plan as though it were sale proceeds. If the Qualified Member has no account under the Arrow
Electronics Savings Plan, he shall be required to open one prior to the transfer from this Plan.
The Member shall direct in accordance with procedures established by the Committee the transfer of
the proceeds of diversification to his rollover contributions account in the Arrow Electronics
Savings Plan, where it shall initially be invested according to the instructions that he shall give
with respect to such transfer.

               4.11.5 Recharacterization of Diversification Election. Effective January 1, 2002, if
a Member makes an election pursuant to Section 4.11.2, but such Member is not a Qualified Member as
defined in Section 4.11.1, then the Member will be deemed not to have made an election pursuant to
this Section 4.11 and to have instead made an election pursuant to Section 7.3.

- 21 -

 

          4.12 Military Service. Effective December 12, 1994, notwithstanding any provisions of
this Plan to the contrary, contributions and service credit will be provided with respect to
Military Service (as defined in Section 1.21.3) to the extent required by Chapter 43 of Title 38 of
the United States Code (USERRA) and in accordance with section 414(u) of the Code.

          4.13 Notification of Members. Annually, after all allocations required hereunder for
each Year have been made, the Committee shall provide each Member with a statement of the amount of
Common Stock in his Account.

ARTICLE V

Retirement Benefits

          5.1 Payment of Retirement Benefits. A Member who terminates employment on or after
his Normal Retirement Date shall be entitled to receive in a single distribution the entire amount
of Common Stock in his Account as of the date on which he actually retires, which right shall be
nonforfeitable upon his Normal Retirement Date. Any amounts credited to his Account as of the last
day of the Year in which he retires shall also be distributed to him. Pending distribution, the
Member’s Account shall be credited with additional Common Stock (if any) creditable thereto
pursuant to Section 4.4 or 4.6.2.

ARTICLE VI

Termination of Employment

          6.1 Benefits upon Termination of Employment.

               6.1.1 Disability Benefits. Upon a Member’s Termination of Employment on account of
Disability, he shall be 100% vested in the amount of Common Stock in his Account as of the date on
which his Disability occurs, and shall be entitled to receive the total balance in his Account.
Any amounts credited to his Account as of the last day of the Year in which his Disability occurs
shall also be distributed to him.

               6.1.2 Other Terminations. Upon a Member’s Termination of Employment for reasons other
than death, retirement at or after his Normal Retirement Date, or Disability, the Member shall be
entitled to receive the Vested Percentage of the balance of his Account as determined under Section
4.10.2.

          6.2 Payment of Benefits upon Termination of Employment.

               6.2.1 In General. Subject to the provisions of Section 9.4, the benefits
distributable to a Member pursuant to this Article VI on Termination of Employment shall be
distributed in a single distribution no later than December 31 of the Year following the Year in
which he terminates employment, provided, that if the total vested balance of a Member’s Account as
of December 31 of the year of Termination of Employment exceeds $5,000, such

- 22 -

 

Member’s benefits shall not be distributed without the Member’s written consent until required
pursuant to Section 9.3. Except as the Member otherwise elects, expressly or by failure to request
distribution after receipt of notice advising of the right to so elect, distribution shall in all
events commence no later than 60 days after the close of the Year in which the Member attains age
65 (or termination of employment, if later), except to the extent that the Common Stock to be so
distributed has not yet been acquired by the Fund. Pending distribution, a Member’s Account shall
be credited with additional Common Stock (if any) creditable thereto pursuant to Section 4.4 or
4.6.2. If the nonforfeitable balance of a Member’s Account is zero, the Member shall be deemed to
have received a single-sum distribution of such nonforfeitable balance upon his Termination of
Employment. The nonvested portion of the Account of a Member who is deemed to have received a
single-sum distribution of his nonforfeitable balance under this Section 6.2.1 shall be forfeited
pursuant to Section 6.3.

               6.2.2 Notice Period. Distribution may commence less than 30 days after the notice
required under Treas. Reg. section 1.411(a)-11(c) provided that: (a) the Committee clearly informs
the Member that the Member has a right to a period of at least 30 days after receiving the notice
to consider the decision of whether or not to elect a distribution (and, if applicable, a
particular distribution option), and (b) the Member, after receiving the notice, affirmatively
elects a distribution.

          6.3 Forfeitures.

               6.3.1 Termination with no Vesting. In the event that a Member upon Termination of
Employment has no vested interest in his or her Account, the Member’s entire Account shall be
forfeited on the last day of the calendar quarter (last day of the Year for forfeitures occurring
prior to January 1, 2004) coincident with or next following the date of his or her Termination of
Employment, unless he or she is reemployed prior to such date. If the Member has been so
reemployed, no portion of the Member’s Account shall be forfeited on such day. If the Member is
reemployed by an Employer or Affiliate after such a forfeiture but before incurring five
consecutive One-Year Breaks in Service, the previously forfeited balance in the Member’s Account
(including both whole and fractional shares) shall be restored.

               6.3.2 Termination with Partial Vesting. In the event that a Member upon Termination
of Employment is partially vested in his or her “post-2006 Account” (as defined in Section 4.10.2),
the non-vested portion of the terminated Member’s Account shall be forfeited upon the distribution
of the vested portion of the Member’s Account. If such a Member is reemployed by an Employer or
Affiliate before incurring five consecutive One-Year Breaks in Service, the forfeited balances
(including both whole and fractional shares) shall be restored to the Member’s Account, and the
Member shall resume his or her place on the respective vesting schedules set forth in Section
4.10.2. However, the Member’s vested interest in his or her post-2006 Account after restoration
of the non-vested balance therein shall be expressed by the formula:

X=P(A
+ D) – D

where X is the Member’s vested balance in the post-2006 Account; P is the Member’s Vested
Percentage in his or her post-2006 Account determined under Section 4.10.2 without regard to

- 23 -

 

this sentence; A is the amount of the balance of such Account after restoration; and D is the
amount of the distribution (expressed in whole and fractional shares) previously made in respect
of the Member’s post-2006 Account.

               6.3.3 Application of Forfeitures. All forfeitures shall be applied in accordance with
Section 3.2 to the extent so determined by the Board of Directors or the Company Representative,
and any balance of such forfeitures not so applied shall be reallocated among the remaining Members
as provided in Article IV.

          6.4 Source of Restored Amounts. The restoration of a portion of any Account shall be
made from forfeitures occurring at the end of the calendar quarter (end of the Year for forfeitures
occurring prior to January 1, 2004) in which such restoration occurs, and if necessary, by a
special Employer contribution made for that purpose.

          6.5 Irrevocable Forfeitures. The unvested portion of a Member’s Account shall be
irrevocably forfeited if he incurs five consecutive One-Year Breaks in Service, and shall not be
restored thereafter notwithstanding any reemployment of the Member.

ARTICLE VII

Withdrawal upon Full Vesting

          7.1 Withdrawal Rights. If a Member’s Account has a Vested Percentage of 100%, he may
withdraw, at such time and in such manner as the Committee shall prescribe, any portion thereof not
to exceed one-half of the balance of such Account. No more than one withdrawal under this Article
VII may be made in any l2-month period, and no more than two such withdrawals may be made in any
60-month period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, shares of Common Stock acquired with the proceeds
of an Exempt Loan may not be withdrawn prior to the close of the Year in which the Exempt Loan is
repaid in full. The restriction imposed by the immediately preceding sentence and the restriction
to no more than two withdrawals in any 60-month period do not apply to “Qualified Members” during
their “Qualified Election Periods” (as such terms are defined in Section 4.11).

          7.2 Distribution. Except for transfers to the Arrow Electronics Savings Plan
described in Section 7.3, distribution upon a withdrawal pursuant to Section 7.1 (whether made
directly to the Member or in a direct rollover to an individual retirement arrangement or other
eligible retirement plan) shall be made in whole shares of Common Stock, and effective December 19,
2003, cash in lieu of any fractional shares, if applicable.

          7.3 Direct Transfer to Arrow Savings Plan. If a Member directs that a withdrawal
under this Article VII be transferred under Section 9.6 as a direct rollover to the Arrow
Electronics Savings Plan (the “Savings Plan”), the Committee shall sell the number of shares
designated by such Member and transfer the proceeds in cash, net of brokerage fees and any other
direct expenses arising from such sale, to the Savings Plan. Such sale shall be made in accordance
with procedures established by the Committee, and within 90 days after the Committee receives such
a direction from a Member. The amounts so transferred shall be held

- 24 -

 

and invested in accordance with the procedures established under the Savings Plan for rollover
contributions.

ARTICLE VIII

Death Benefits

          8.1 Death Benefits. In the event of the death of a Member prior to his Termination of
Employment, the amount of Common Stock in his Account as of the date of his death shall be
distributed to his Beneficiary. Any amounts credited to the deceased Member’s Account as of the
last day of the Year in which he dies shall also be distributed to his Beneficiary. Both of these
distributions shall be made not later than December 31 of the Year following the Year in which the
Member’s death occurs, except to the extent that the Common Stock in respect of which distribution
is to be made has not yet been acquired by the Fund; provided, that if the Member had attained his
Normal Retirement Date prior to his death, distribution shall be made not later than 60 days
following the close of the Year in which his death occurs unless his Beneficiary elects otherwise.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Beneficiary is the Member’s spouse, distribution shall be
made within 90 days of the Member’s death if reasonably practicable and otherwise as soon as
practicable unless the spouse elects otherwise. Pending distribution, the deceased Member’s
Account shall be credited with additional Common Stock (if any) creditable thereto pursuant to
Section 4.4 and Section 4.6.2, and his Beneficiary shall be entitled to vote the Common Stock in
his Account pursuant to Section 4.9.3.

          8.2 Designation of a Beneficiary.

               8.2.1 Designation of Beneficiary. Subject to the further provisions of this Section
8.2, each Member may designate, at such time and in such manner as the Committee shall prescribe, a
Beneficiary or Beneficiaries (who may be any one or more members of his family or any other
persons, executor, administrator, any trust, foundation or other entity) to receive any benefits
distributable hereunder to his Beneficiary after the death of the Member as provided herein. Such
designation of a Beneficiary or Beneficiaries shall not be effective for any purpose unless and
until it has been filed by the Member with the Committee, provided, however, that a designation
mailed by the Member to the Committee prior to death and received after his death shall take effect
upon such receipt, but prospectively only and without prejudice to any payor or payee on account of
any payments made before receipt by the Committee.

               8.2.2 Spouse as Presumptive Beneficiary. Notwithstanding Section 8.2.1 (but subject
to the provisions of Section 8.3), a Member’s sole Beneficiary shall be his surviving spouse, if
the Member has a surviving spouse, unless the Member has designated another Beneficiary with the
written consent of such spouse (in which consent such Beneficiary is specified by name or class,
and the effect of such designation is acknowledged) witnessed by a notary public or Plan
representative. Any such consent shall be irrevocable. The Committee may, in its sole discretion,
waive the requirement of spousal consent if the Member is legally separated or if the Committee is
satisfied that the spouse cannot be located, or if the Member can

- 25 -

 

show by court order that he has been abandoned by the spouse within the meaning of local law,
or if otherwise permitted under applicable regulations.

               8.2.3 Change of Beneficiary. A Member may, from time to time in such manner as the
Committee shall prescribe, change his designated Beneficiary or Beneficiaries, but any such
designation which has the effect of naming a person other than the surviving spouse as sole
Beneficiary is subject to the spousal consent requirement of Section 8.2.2.

               8.2.4 Failure to Designate. If a Member has failed effectively to designate a
Beneficiary to receive the Member’s death benefits, or a Beneficiary previously designated has
predeceased the Member and no alternative designation has become effective, such benefits shall be
distributed to the Member’s surviving spouse, if any, or if no spouse survives the Member, to the
Member’s estate.

          8.3 Effect of Marriage, Divorce or Annulment, or Legal Separation. This Section 8.3
shall be effective in determining the identity of a Participant’s Beneficiary at any time on or
after September 1, 2006. In accordance with Section 1.35 but subject to the following provisions
of this Section 8.3, the term “spouse” for purposes of this Article VIII means the individual to
whom the Member is married on the date of reference, determined under applicable state law, except
than no individual of the same gender as the Member shall be deemed such a spouse. Notwithstanding
the foregoing:

          8.3.1 If a court of competent jurisdiction has issued a legal separation order, the parties to
whom that order pertains shall not be deemed to be married to each other, even if their marriage
has not been annulled or terminated by divorce; provided, however, that to the extent that a
Qualified Domestic Relations Order as defined in Section 9.5 (“QDRO”) specifies that a former
spouse (or legally separated spouse) of the Member is to be treated as the Member’s spouse, such
specified former spouse (or legally separated individual) shall be treated as the Member’s spouse
under the Plan to the extent required in such QDRO, to the exclusion of any subsequent spouse.

          8.3.2 Except to the extent otherwise provided in an applicable QDRO, a designation of the
Member’s spouse as Beneficiary will automatically be cancelled if the marriage terminates by
divorce or is annulled or such a legal separation order is issued unless the designation clearly
states that the individual named as Beneficiary is to continue as such following termination of the
marriage or such separation.

          8.3.3 Nothing herein shall prohibit a spouse from disclaiming the benefit to which he or she
would otherwise be entitled as the Member’s sole Beneficiary, in whole or in part, in which event
the Beneficiary with respect to the interest so disclaimed shall be determined as if the spouse had
predeceased the Member.

          8.3.4 Upon the marriage of a Member, any designation of Beneficiaries made by the Member prior
to the date of the marriage shall become null and void as of the date of the marriage. Subsequent
divorce, legal separation or dissolution of the marriage shall not reinstate any designation that
became null and void as of the date of such marriage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the
Employer, the Trustee or Committee, nor any other

- 26 -

 

fiduciary, shall be liable for, and each of them shall be fully protected, as to amounts paid
to one or more Beneficiary(ies) of the Member subsequent to the marriage of the Member and after
the death of the Member, but prior to their receipt of effective written notification of the
marriage.

- 27 -

 

          8.4 Proof of Death. The Committee may require such proof of death and such evidence
of the right of any person to receive all or part of the death benefit of a deceased Member as the
Committee may deem desirable. The Committee’s determination of the fact of death of a Member and
of the right of any person to receive distributions as a result thereof shall be conclusive upon
such Member and all persons having or claiming any right in the Fund on account of such Member.

          8.5 Designation of Method of Distribution. Notwithstanding Section 8.1, a Member (or,
after his death, his Beneficiary) may direct the Committee to cause any distribution in respect of
his account following his death to be paid in installments over a period not to exceed five years,
by filing with the Committee a designation of method of payment in such form as may be prescribed
or approved by the Committee.

          8.6 Direct Transfer to Arrow Savings Plan. Effective March 17, 2003, a Beneficiary
may direct that all or a portion of his interest in a deceased Member’s account be transferred
directly to the Arrow Electronics Savings Plan (the “Savings Plan”). Upon such election by a
Beneficiary, the Committee shall sell the number of shares designated by the Beneficiary and
transfer the proceeds in cash, net of brokerage fees and any other direct expenses arising from
such sale, to the Savings Plan. Such sale shall be made in accordance with procedures established
by the Committee, and within 90 days after the Committee receives such a direction from a
Beneficiary. The amounts so transferred shall be held and invested in accordance with the
procedures established by the Committee under the Savings Plan.

          8.7 Undistributed Balance of Terminated Member. In the event that a Member shall
terminate employment with a vested balance in his Account and shall die prior to the complete
distribution of such vested balance, the undistributed portion of such vested balance shall be
distributed to his Beneficiary, in the manner provided for in the foregoing provisions of this
Article VIII. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Committee and Trustee shall be fully protected in
making distribution in the name of any such Member prior to the Trustee’s receiving actual notice
of the death of such Member, and no Beneficiary of a deceased Member shall have any interest in
such Member’s vested Account balances to the extent that any such distribution shall have been
made.

          8.8 Discharge of Liability. If distribution in respect of a Member’s Account is made
to a person reasonably believed by the Committee or his delegate (taking into account any document
purporting to be a valid consent of the Member’s spouse, or any representation by the Member that
he is not married) to properly qualify as the Member’s Beneficiary under the foregoing provisions
of this Article VIII, the Plan shall have no further liability with respect to such account (or the
portion thereof so distributed).

ARTICLE IX

Distribution of Benefits

          9.1 Form of Distribution of Benefits. A Member or Beneficiary who is eligible for a
benefit as provided herein shall receive distribution thereof in Common Stock, with

- 28 -

 

a cash payment in lieu of any fractional share of Common Stock. The Trustee may, however,
distribute whole shares of Common Stock which are made up of fractions of various Categories of
Common Stock. The Committee shall apprise the distributee of the basis to the Fund of the Common
Stock (and fractions of Common Stock in the event that the whole shares of Common Stock distributed
are made up of fractions having different bases) distributed to him.

          9.2 Put Options. All Common Stock distributed by the Plan shall be subject to the
provisions of Section 15.8 as if it were acquired with the proceeds of an Exempt Loan. No put
option may be granted with respect to any Common Stock under this Plan except as provided in this
Section 9.2 and in Section 15.8.

          9.3 Minimum Required Distributions.

               9.3.1 Governing Regulations. Notwithstanding any provisions of the Plan to the
contrary, with respect to distributions made for calendar years beginning on January 1, 2001 and
2002, the Plan will apply the minimum distribution requirements of section 401(a)(9) of the Code,
including the incidental death benefit requirement, in accordance with the regulations under
section 401(a)(9) that were proposed on January 17, 2001, and for calendar years beginning on or
after January 1, 2003, in accordance with the regulations under section 401(a)(9) published on
April 17, 2002, as amended and supplemented on June 15, 2004.

               9.3.2 Required Beginning Date. Distribution of benefits for Members who are not 5%
owners (as described in Section 17.1.2(c)) must begin by April 1 of the calendar year following the
later of (a) the calendar year in which the Member reaches age 70-1/2, and (b) the calendar year in
which the Member terminates employment. However, if a Member is a 5% owner during the Year in
which he reaches age 70-1/2, distribution of the Member’s benefit must begin by April 1, of such
year.

               9.3.3 Subsequent Distributions. If a Member receives a single sum distribution
pursuant to Section 9.3.1 or 9.3.2, any shares of Common Stock subsequently allocated to the
Member’s Account shall be distributed to the Member as soon as practicable after the end of the
Year for which such allocation is made.

               9.3.4 Delay of Payment. Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary contained in
this Plan, in the event that the amount of a payment required to commence on the date otherwise
determined under this Plan cannot be ascertained by such date, or if it is not possible to make
such payment on such date because the Committee has been unable to locate the Member (or, in the
case of a deceased Member, his Beneficiary) after making reasonable efforts to do so, a payment
retroactive to such date may be made no later than 60 days after the earliest date on which the
amount of such payment can be ascertained under this Plan or the date on which the Member (or
Beneficiary) is located, whichever is applicable.

- 29 -

 

          9.4 Special Rule for Exempt Loan. In the case of Common Stock acquired with the
proceeds of an Exempt Loan, no distribution shall be required pursuant to Article VI until the
close of the Year in which the loan is repaid in full.

          9.5 Qualified Domestic Relations Orders.

               9.5.1 Definition. For purposes of this Section 9.5.1, “Qualified Domestic Relations
Order” means any judgment, decree or order (including approval of a property settlement) made
pursuant to a state domestic relations law (including a community property law) which relates to
the provision of child support, alimony payments or marital property to a spouse, former spouse,
child or other dependent of a Member and which creates or recognizes the existence of a right of
(or assigns such a right to) such spouse, former spouse, child or other dependent (the “Alternate
Payee”) to receive all or a portion of the benefits payable with respect to a Member under the
Plan. A Qualified Domestic Relations Order must clearly specify the amount or percentage of the
Member’s benefits to be paid to the Alternate Payee by the Plan (or the manner in which such amount
or percentage is to be determined). A Qualified Domestic Relations Order (a) may not require the
Plan (i) to provide any form or type of benefits or any option not otherwise provided under the
Plan, (ii) to pay benefits to an Alternate Payee under such order which are required to be paid to
another Alternate Payee under another such order previously filed with the Plan, or (iii) to
provide increased benefits (determined on the basis of actuarial equivalents), but (b) may require
payment of benefits to the Alternate Payee under the order (i) at any time after the date of the
order, (ii) as if the Member had retired on the date on which such payment is to begin under such
order (taking into account only the benefits in which the Participant is then vested) and (iii) in
any form in which such benefits may be paid to the Member.

               9.5.2 Distributions. The Committee shall recognize and honor any judgment, decree or
order entered on or after January 1, 1985 under a state domestic relations law which the Committee
determines to be a Qualified Domestic Relations Order in accordance with such reasonable procedures
to determine such status as the Committee shall establish. Without limitation of the foregoing,
the Committee shall notify a Member and the person entitled to benefits under a judgment, decree or
order which purports to be a Qualified Domestic Relations Order of (a) the receipt thereof, (b) the
Plan’s procedures for determining whether such judgment, decree or order is a Qualified Domestic
Relations Order and (c) any determination made with respect to such status. During any period
during which the Committee is determining whether any judgment, decree or order is a Qualified
Domestic Relations Order, any amount which would have been payable to any person pursuant to such
order shall be separately accounted for pending payment to the proper recipient thereof. Any such
amount, as so adjusted, shall be paid to the person entitled to such payment under any such
judgment, decree or order if the Committee determines such judgment, decree or order to be a
Qualified Domestic Relations Order within 18 full calendar months commencing with the date on which
the first payment would be required to be made under such judgment, decree or order. If the
Committee is unable to make such a determination within such time period, payment under the Plan
shall be as if such judgment, decree or order did not exist and any such determination made after
such time period shall be applied prospectively only.

- 30 -

 

               9.5.3 Alternate Payee’s Beneficiary. In the event that an Alternate Payee is entitled
under a Qualified Domestic Relations Order to designate a Beneficiary for the Alternate Payee’s
interest in the Plan and fails to do so or such designation fails to be effective (such as by
reason of the prior death of the designated individual and the absence of any effective alternative
designation), the Alternate Payee’s Beneficiary with respect to such interest shall be the
Alternate Payee’s estate.

          9.6 Direct Rollover of Eligible Rollover Distributions. Notwithstanding any
provisions of this Plan that would otherwise limit a Distributee’s election under this Section 9.6,
a Distributee may elect, at the time and in the manner prescribed by the Committee, to have any
portion of an Eligible Rollover Distribution paid in a Direct Rollover directly to an Eligible
Retirement Plan specified by the Distributee.

               9.6.1 Definitions. For purposes of this Section 9.6, the following terms shall have
the meanings specified below, effective January 1, 2002:

                    9.6.1.1 Eligible Rollover Distribution. Any distribution of all or any portion of the
balance to the credit of a Distributee under the Plan, except that an Eligible Rollover
Distribution does not include: any distribution that is one of a series of substantially equal
periodic payments (not less frequent than annual) made for the life (or life expectancy) of the
Distributee or the joint lives (or life expectancies) of the Distributee and the Distributee’s
Beneficiary, or for a specified period of ten years or more; any distribution to the extent such
distribution is required under section 401(a)(9) of the Code; the portion of any distribution that
is not includible in gross income, unless the conditions of Section 9.6.5 are satisfied; any deemed
distribution occurring upon the Member’s Termination of Employment under which the Member’s account
balance is offset by the amount of an outstanding Plan loan; and any hardship withdrawal.

                    9.6.1.2 Eligible Retirement Plan. An individual retirement account described in
section 408(a) of the Code, an individual retirement annuity described in section 408(b) of the
Code, an annuity plan described in section 403(a) of the Code, another employer’s qualified trust
described in section 401(a) of the Code, an annuity contract described in section 403(b) of the
Code, or an eligible deferred compensation plan described in section 457(b) of the Code maintained
by a State, a political subdivision of a State, or any agency or instrumentality of a State or
political subdivision of a State and which agrees to separately account for amounts transferred
into such plan from this Plan, that accepts a Distributee’s Eligible Rollover Distribution.

                    9.6.1.3 Distributee. A Member, a Member’s surviving Spouse or a Member’s Spouse or
former Spouse who is the Alternate Payee under a Qualified Domestic Relations Order (as defined in
section 414(p) of the Code and Section 9.6.1). Effective January 1, 2007, the term “Distributee”
shall include a non-spouse Beneficiary who is an individual or is treated as such under applicable
regulations, but a direct rollover by such a Beneficiary may be made only to an individual
retirement plan described in section 408(a) or (b) of the Code, and which is established in a
manner (including title) that identifies it as an IRA with respect to both the deceased participant
and the individual Beneficiary.

- 31 -

 

                    9.6.1.4 Direct Rollover. A payment by the Plan to an Eligible Retirement Plan
specified by a Distributee, in the manner prescribed by the Committee.

               9.6.2 Limitation. No more than one Direct Rollover may be elected by a Distributee
for each Eligible Rollover Distribution.

               9.6.3 Default Procedures. If a Member (or other Distributee, if applicable) does not
make a timely election whether or not to directly roll over his Eligible Rollover Distribution
within a reasonable period permitted by the Committee for making such election, such distribution
shall be made directly to the Member (or other Distributee, if applicable). Notwithstanding the
foregoing, effective March 28, 2005, such Eligible Rollover Distributions made to a Member prior to
Normal Retirement Date that exceed $1,000 in value but do not exceed $5,000 will be automatically
rolled over to an IRA in accordance with Section 9.6.4.

               9.6.4 Automatic Distribution of Small Accounts. If, upon Termination of Employment,
the value of a Member’s vested interest in his Account does not exceed $5,000, and such Member does
not make a timely election under this Section 9.6 to make a Direct Rollover, the vested balance in
the Member’s Account shall be distributed to the Member in accordance with Section 6.2.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, for distributions to a Member on or after March 28, 2005 and prior
to the Member’s Normal Retirement Date, in the event that the distribution exceeds $1,000 in value
or amount but does not exceed $5,000, and the Member does not make an election whether or not to
make a Direct Rollover of his distribution within the time and in the manner prescribed by the
Committee, if the value or amount of the distribution remains no more than $5,000 at the date on
which distribution is to be made, the Committee shall direct the Trustee to sell all of the shares
of Common Stock in the Member’s Account and transfer the proceeds in cash, net of brokerage fees
and any other direct expenses arising from such sale, to an individual retirement account selected
by the Committee and meeting the requirements for the “safe harbor” regulations issued by the
Department of Labor, 29 C.F.R. section 2520.404a-2 (or any corresponding successor regulations).
Such sale of shares and transfer shall be made in accordance with procedures established by the
Committee, and may, if the Committee so directs, be effected through application of the shares to
meet purchase requirements of the Plan then outstanding.

               9.6.5 After-Tax Employee Contributions. An Eligible Rollover Distribution may include
after-tax employee contributions if the Eligible Retirement Plan is either:

                    (a) an individual retirement account described in section 408(a) of the Code or an individual
retirement annuity described in section 408(b) of the Code; or

                    (b) an annuity plan described in section 403(a) of the Code or another employer’s qualified
trust described in section 401(a) of the Code, which agrees to separately account for such
after-tax employee contributions (and the earnings thereon).

them or otherwise, to allocate fiduciary responsibilities among themselves, and any one or more of
such members may designate other persons to carry out fiduciary or other responsibilities under the

operating defects in order to preserve qualification of the Plan under section 401(a) of the Code
pursuant to procedures of the Internal Revenue Service applicable in such cases (such as those set

paid by the Fund to the extent not paid by the Company, and such expenses shall include any
expenses authorized by the Board of Directors as necessary or desirable in the administration of
the Plan.

- 34 -

 

          10.4 Advisers. Any named fiduciary under the Plan, and any fiduciary designated by a

          10.6 Limitation of Liability; Indemnity.

               10.6.1 Except as otherwise provided by law, if any duty or responsibility of any person

any provision of this Plan, then such fiduciary shall not be liable for any act or omission of such
other person in carrying out such duty or responsibility.

               10.6.2 Except as otherwise provided by law, no person who is a member of the Committee or is

thereunder, or otherwise has responsibility with respect to administration of the Plan or trust,
shall incur any liability whatsoever on account of any matter connected with or related to the Plan
or trust or the administration thereof, unless such person shall have acted in bad faith or been
guilty of willful misconduct or gross negligence in respect of his duties, actions or omissions in
respect of the Plan or trust.

               10.6.3 The Company shall indemnify and save harmless each Committee member and each employee,
director or officer of any Employer serving as a trustee or other fiduciary from and against any
and all loss, liability, claim, damage, cost and expense which may arise by reason of, or be based
upon, any matter connected with or related to the Plan or trust or the administration thereof
(including, but not limited to, any and all expenses whatsoever reasonably incurred in
investigating, preparing or defending against any litigation, commenced or threatened, or in
settlement of any such claim whatsoever), unless such person shall have acted in bad faith or been
guilty of willful misconduct or gross negligence in respect of his duties, actions or omissions in
respect of the Plan or trust.

          10.7 Reliance on Information. The Committee and any Employer and its officers,
directors and employees shall be entitled to rely upon all tables, valuations, certificates,
opinions and reports furnished by any accountant, trustee, insurance company, counsel or other
expert who shall be engaged by an Employer or the Committee, and the Committee and any Employer and

suffered by them in good faith in reliance thereon, and all action so taken or suffered shall be
conclusive upon all persons affected thereby.

          10.8 Subcommittees, Counsel and Agents. The Committee may appoint from its members
such subcommittees (of one or more such members), with such powers, as the Committee shall
determine. The Committee may employ such counsel (including legal counsel, who may be counsel for
the Company or an Employer), accountants, and agents and such clerical and other services as either
may require in carrying out the provisions of the Plan, and may

- 35 -

 

charge the fees, charges and costs resulting from such employment as an expense to the Fund to
the extent not paid by the Company. Unless otherwise required by law, persons employed by the
Committee as counsel, or as its agents or otherwise, may include members of the Committee, or
employees of the Company. Persons serving on the Committee, or on any such subcommittee shall be
fully protected in acting or refraining to act in accordance with the advice of legal or other
counsel.

          10.9 Funding Policy. The funding policy and method of the Plan shall consist of the
receipt of contributions and the investment thereof pursuant to the provisions of the Plan, taking
into account the objectives of the Plan as stated in the Introduction.

          10.10 Proper Proof. In any case in which an Employer or the Committee shall be
required under the Plan to take action upon the occurrence of any event, they shall be under no
obligation to take such action unless and until proper and satisfactory evidence of such occurrence
shall have been received by them.

          10.11 Genuineness of Documents. The Committee, and any Employer and its respective
officers, directors and employees, shall be entitled to rely upon any notice, request, consent,
letter, telegram or other paper or document believed by them or any of them to be genuine, and to
have been signed or sent by the proper person, and shall be fully protected in respect of any
action taken or suffered by them in good faith in reliance thereon.

          10.12 Records and Reports. The Committee shall maintain or cause to be maintained
such records, as it deems necessary or advisable in connection with the administration of the Plan.

          10.13 Recovery of Overpayments. Without limiting the generality of the Committee’s
power and discretion under Section 10.3(d) to rectify errors and supply omissions, in the event
that the Committee determines that overpayments have been made to a Member or his spouse or
Beneficiary, the Committee shall take such steps as it shall deem appropriate under the relevant
facts and circumstances to recover such payments, with or without interest, and in case repayment
is not otherwise made, to offset the amount to be recovered against subsequent payments otherwise
becoming due to or in respect of such Member, spouse or Beneficiary at such time and to such extent
as it shall deem appropriate.

ARTICLE XI

The Trust Agreement

     11.1 The Trust Agreement. Effective July 17, 2002, the Committee, on behalf of itself
and each other Employer, shall have power to appoint and remove a Trustee and to enter into or
amend a Trust Agreement with the Trustee providing for the establishment of a Fund hereunder. The
Trust Agreement shall be deemed to form a part of this Plan, and any and all rights which may
accrue to any person under this Plan shall be subject to all the terms and provisions of such Trust
Agreement. Copies of the Trust Agreement shall be filed with the

Committee and, upon reasonable application and notice, shall be made available for inspection
by any Member.

Agreement or in Section 4.7, upon the transfer by an Employer of any money or assets to the Fund,
all interest of the Employer therein shall cease and terminate, legal title to such Fund shall be
vested absolutely in the Trustee and no part of the Fund or income therefrom shall be used for or
diverted to purposes other than the exclusive benefit of the Members and their Beneficiaries as
provided herein; provided, however, that:

                    (a) A contribution that is made by an Employer by a mistake of fact may be returned to the
Employer upon its request within one year after the payment of the contribution; and

                    (b) A contribution that is conditioned upon its deductibility under section 404(a) of the Code
may be returned to the Employer upon its request, to the extent that the contribution is disallowed
as a deduction, within one year after such disallowance.

          11.3 Duties and Responsibilities of the Trustee. The Trustee will hold and invest all
funds as provided herein and in the Trust Agreement. The Trustee will make, at the direction of
the Committee, all payments to Members and their Beneficiaries.

          The Trustee shall invest the assets in the Fund in the Common Stock of the Company.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trustee may make such short-term fixed income investments as it
shall deem necessary to hold (i) cash contributions pending investment in Common Stock when such
contributions are made prior to settlement of trades, (ii) amounts deemed necessary or advisable to
fund the distribution in respect of fractional shares of Common Stock in accordance with Section
7.2 or rollovers into a “safe harbor” individual retirement account under Section 9.6.4, and (iii)
the proceeds of sales of Common Stock pending transfer of such proceeds to the Arrow Electronics
Savings Plan in accordance with Sections 4.11.4, 7.3, and 8.5 or to such a safe harbor individual
retirement account.

          The Trustee shall not be required to make any payment of benefits or distributions out of the
Fund, or to allocate or reallocate any amounts, except upon the written direction of the Committee.
The Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of any action by the Board of Directors or of the
termination of employment, retirement, Disability or death of any Member, unless it shall be given
written notice of such event by the Committee.

- 37 -

 

          11.4 Leveraged Purchases. The Trustee shall be entitled to borrow funds for the
purpose of purchasing Common Stock, either from the Company or from shareholders of the Company.
Any such loan that is an Exempt Loan shall comply with the provisions of Article XV.

ARTICLE XII

Amendment

          12.1 Right of the Company to Amend the Plan. The Company shall have the right at any
time and from time to time to amend any or all of the provisions of this Plan by resolution of the
Board of Directors, by action of the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors, or effective
July 17, 2002, by action of the Company Representative, and all Employers and Members (and their
Beneficiaries) shall be bound thereby. Except as provided in Section 12.3, no such amendment shall
authorize or permit any part of the Fund to be used for or diverted to purposes other than for the
exclusive benefit of the Members and their Beneficiaries, nor shall any amendment reduce any amount
then credited to the individual accounts of any Member, reduce any Member’s vested interest in his
account, or affect the rights, duties and responsibilities of the Trustee without his written
consent.

          12.2 Plan Merger. The Plan may be amended in accordance with Section 12.1 to provide
for the merger of the Plan, in whole or in part, or a transfer of all or part of its assets, into
or to any other qualified plan within the meaning of section 401(a) of the Code, including such a
merger or transfer in lieu of a distribution which might otherwise be required under the Plan. In
the case of any merger or consolidation with, or transfer of assets or liabilities to, any other
plan, each Member shall be entitled to a benefit immediately after the merger, consolidation or
transfer (if such other plan then terminated) which is equal to or greater than the benefit he
would have been entitled to receive immediately before the merger, consolidation or transfer (if
the Plan had then been terminated).

          12.3 Amendments Required by Law. All provisions of this Plan, and all benefits and
rights granted hereunder, are subject to any amendments, modifications or alterations which are
necessary from time to time, (a) to qualify the Plan under section 40l(a) of the Code and the
regulations and rulings thereunder, (b) to continue the Plan as so qualified, (c) to qualify the
Plan as an employee stock ownership plan within the meaning of section 4975(e)(7) of the Code and
the regulations and rulings thereunder, and within the meaning of section 407(d)(6) of ERISA and
the regulations and rulings thereunder, (d) to comply with any other provision of law.
Accordingly, notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan, the Company may amend, modify or
alter the Plan with retroactive effect in any respect or manner necessary to qualify the Plan under
section 40l(a) of the Code, to continue the Plan as so qualified, to meet the aforementioned
statutory requirements or to comply with any other provision of applicable law.

ARTICLE XIII

Discontinuance of Contributions

and Termination of the Plan

          13.1 Right to Terminate the Plan or Discontinue Contributions. The Employers have
established the Plan with the bona fide intention and expectation that from year to year they will
be able to and will deem it advisable to make contributions as herein provided. In any given Year,
however, the board of directors of an Employer may determine that circumstances make it impossible
or inadvisable for the Employer to make contributions in respect of that Year. The failure of such
board of directors to authorize contributions in respect of any Year shall not constitute a
termination of the Plan. However, the Company reserves the right to terminate the Plan or
completely discontinue contributions thereto at any time, with respect to any or all Employers
hereunder.

          13.2 Manner of Termination. In the event the Board of Directors decides it is
impossible or inadvisable to continue the Plan, the Board of Directors shall have the power to
terminate the Plan by appropriate resolution. A certified copy of such resolution or resolutions
shall be delivered to the Committee, and as soon as possible thereafter the Committee shall deliver
to the Trustee a copy of the resolution or resolutions and shall give appropriate notice to the
Members.

          13.3 Effect of Termination. In the event of the complete or partial termination
(within the meaning of section 411(d)(3) of the Code) of the Plan or a complete discontinuance of
contributions by the Employers, the rights of all affected Members to their Accounts as of the date
of such termination or such complete discontinuance of contributions shall be fully vested and
nonforfeitable (within the meaning of section 411 of the Code and regulations thereunder). After
the date of a complete termination specified in the resolution or resolutions adopted by the Board
of Directors, the Employers shall make no further contributions under the Plan. In the event of a
complete discontinuance of contributions without a termination of the Plan, the Committee shall
remain in existence and all provisions of the Plan shall remain in force which are necessary in the
opinion of the Committee, other than the provisions for contributions, and the Fund shall remain in
existence and all provisions of the Trust Agreement shall remain in force which are necessary in
the sole opinion of the Committee, other than provisions relating to contributions.

          13.4 Distribution of the Fund. In the event of a termination of the Plan, the Trustee
shall apply each Member’s account to the benefit of such Member (or his Beneficiary) in accordance
with the instructions of the Committee. Except as specifically provided in Section 4.7 or 11.2 or
in the Trust Agreement, no assets will revert from the Fund to any Employer.

          13.5 Expenses of Termination. In the event of the complete or partial termination of
the Plan, the expenses incident thereto shall be a prior claim and lien upon the assets of the
Fund, and shall be paid or provided for prior to the distribution of any benefits pursuant to such
termination.

ARTICLE XIV

Miscellaneous Provisions

          14.1 Plan Not a Contract of Employment. Neither the establishment of the Plan created
hereby, nor any amendment thereof, nor the creation of any fund or account, nor the payment of any
benefits hereunder, shall be construed as giving to any Member or other person any legal or
equitable right against any Employer, any officer or employee thereof, the Board of Directors or
any member thereof, the Committee, or any Trustee, except as provided herein and under no
circumstances shall the terms of employment of any Member be in any way affected hereby.

          14.2 Source of Benefits. All benefits payable under the Plan shall be paid or
provided for solely from the Fund and the Employers assume no liability or responsibility therefor.
The Employers are under no legal obligation to make any contributions to the Fund. No action or
suit shall be brought by any Employee or Beneficiary, or by any Trustee, against any Employer for
any such contribution.

          14.3 Spendthrift Clause. Except as may be otherwise required by a “qualified domestic
relations order” (as defined in section 414(p) of the Code), or by other applicable law recognized
as a permitted exception to this provision by section 401(a)(13) of the Code and regulations
thereunder, no benefit or payment under the Plan shall be subject in any manner to anticipation,
alienation, sale, transfer, assignment, pledge, encumbrance or charge, whether voluntary or
involuntary, and no attempt so to anticipate, alienate, sell, transfer, assign, pledge, encumber or
charge the same shall be valid, nor shall any such benefit or payment be in any way liable for or
subject to the debts, contracts, liabilities, engagements or torts of any person entitled to such
benefit or payment, or subject to attachment, garnishment, levy, execution or other legal or
equitable process.

          14.4 Merger. The merger or consolidation of the Company with any other company or the
transfer of the assets of the Company to any other company by sale, exchange, liquidation or
otherwise or the merger of this Plan with any other retirement plan shall not in and of itself
result in the termination of the Plan or be deemed a Termination of Employment of any Employee.

          14.5 Valuation of Common Stock. Except as otherwise expressly provided, for all
purposes of this Plan, the value of Common Stock on any day on which a national securities exchange
is open for trading in Common Stock shall be (a) the mean between the high and low prices at which
Common Stock was traded on such exchange on such day, or (b) if there were no trades of Common
Stock on such exchange on such day, the mean between the high bid and low asked prices for Common
Stock on such day. In the event that the value of Common Stock is to be determined under this Plan
as of a day on which there was no national exchange open for trading in Common Stock, the value of
Common Stock on such day shall be the value of Common Stock on the most recent day on which a
national exchange was open for trading in Common Stock, as determined in accordance with the
preceding sentence.

- 40 -

 

          14.6 Inability to Locate Distributee. Notwithstanding any other provision of the
Plan, in the event that the Committee cannot locate any person to whom a payment or distribution is
due under the Plan, and no other payee has become entitled thereto pursuant to any provision of the
Plan, the account in respect of which such payment or distribution is to be made shall be forfeited
at the close of the third Year following the Year in which such payment or distribution first
became due (but in all events prior to the time such account would otherwise escheat under any
applicable state law); provided, that any account so forfeited shall be reinstated if such person
subsequently makes a valid claim for such benefit.

          14.7 Payment to a Minor or Incompetent. If any amount is payable to a minor or other
legally incompetent person, such amount may be paid in any of the following ways, as the Committee
in its sole discretion shall determine:

                    (a) To the legal representatives of such minor or other incompetent person;

                    (b) Directly to such minor or other incompetent person;

                    (c) To a parent or guardian of such minor, or to a custodian for such minor under the Uniform
Transfers to Minors Act (or similar statute) of any jurisdiction or to the person with whom such
minor shall reside.

          Payment to such minor or incompetent person, or to such other person as may be determined by
the Committee, as above provided, shall discharge all Employers, the Committee, the Trustees and
any insurance company or other person or corporation making such payment pursuant to the direction
of the Committee, and none of the foregoing shall be required to see to the proper application of
any such payment to such person pursuant to the provisions of this Section 14.8.

          14.8 Doubt as to Right to Payment. If at any time any doubt exists as to the right of
any person to any payment hereunder or as to the amount or time of such payment (including, without
limitation, any doubt as to identity, or any case in which any notice has been received from any
other person claiming any interest in amounts payable hereunder, or any case in which a claim from
other persons may exist by reason of community property or similar laws) the Committee shall be
entitled, in its discretion, to direct the Trustee (or any insurance company) to hold such sum as a
segregated amount in trust until such right or amount or time is determined or until order of a
court of competent jurisdiction, or to pay such sum into court in accordance with appropriate rules
of law in such case then provided, or to make payment only upon receipt of a bond or similar
indemnification (in such amount and in such form as is satisfactory to the Committee).

          14.9 Estoppel of Members and Beneficiaries. The Employers, Committee, and Trustee may
rely upon any certificate, statement or other representation made to them by any Employee, Member
or Beneficiary with respect to age, length of service, leave of absence, date of cessation of
employment or other fact required to be determined under any of the provisions of the Plan, and
shall not be liable on account of the payment of any benefits or the doing of any act in reliance
upon any such certificate, statement or other representation. Any such certificate,

- 41 -

 

statement or other representation made by an Employee or Member shall be conclusively binding
upon such Employee or Member and his Beneficiary and estate, and such Employee, Member, Beneficiary
and estate shall thereafter and forever be estopped from disputing the truth and correctness of
such certificate, statement or other representation. Any such certificate, statement or other
representation made by a Beneficiary shall be conclusively binding upon such Beneficiary, and such
Beneficiary shall thereafter and forever be estopped from disputing the truth and correctness of
such certificate, statement or other representation.

          14.10 Claims Procedure. The Committee shall establish a claims procedure in
accordance with applicable law, under which any Member or Beneficiary whose claim for benefits has
been denied shall have a reasonable opportunity for a full and fair review of the decision denying
such claim.

          14.11 Controlling Law. The validity of this Plan or of any of its provisions shall be
determined under, and shall be construed and administered according to, the laws of the State of
New York (without regard to its choice of law principles), except to the extent preempted by ERISA,
or any other applicable laws of the United States of America. No action (whether at law, in equity
or otherwise) shall be brought by or on behalf of any person for or with respect to benefits due
under this Plan unless the person bringing such action has timely exhausted the Plan’s claim review
procedure. Any action (whether at law, in equity or otherwise) must be commenced within three (3)
years from the earlier of (a) the date a final determination denying such benefit, in whole or in
part, is issued under the Plan’s claim review procedure and (b) the date such person’s cause of
action first accrued.

          14.12 Separability. If any provision of the Plan or the Trust Agreement is held
invalid or unenforceable, its invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect any other provisions
of the Plan and/or the Trust Agreement, and the Plan and Trust Agreement shall be construed and
enforced as if such provision had not been included therein.

          14.13 Captions. The captions contained herein are inserted only as a matter of
convenience and for reference and in no way define, limit, enlarge or describe the scope or intent
of the Plan nor in any way shall affect the Plan or the construction of any provision thereof.

          14.14 Usage. Whenever applicable, the masculine gender, when used in the Plan, shall
include the feminine or neuter gender, and the singular shall include the plural.

ARTICLE XV

Exempt Loans

          15.1 Application of Article. This Article XV shall apply in the event that the
Trustee shall purchase Common Stock with loan proceeds (including a purchase on deferred payment
terms), and the loan is made by or guaranteed by the Company or another disqualified person with
respect to the Plan. Any such loan must be primarily for the benefit of the Members participating
in the Plan and their Beneficiaries.

- 42 -

 

          15.2 Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of an Exempt Loan must be used within a reasonable
time after their receipt by the Plan only for any or all of the following purposes: (a) to acquire
Common Stock; (b) to repay such loan; (c) to repay a prior Exempt Loan.

          15.3 Non-Recourse Requirement. An Exempt Loan shall be without recourse against the
Plan. Such loan shall be payable only out of contributions (other than contributions of Common
Stock or other employer securities) that are made by the Employers under the Plan in order to meet
their obligations under the loan, collateral given for the loan (if any), and earnings attributable
to the investment of such contributions or to such collateral (including dividends or other
distributions in respect of Common Stock acquired with the proceeds of an Exempt Loan). The
payments made with respect to an Exempt Loan by the Plan during a Year shall not exceed the excess
of (a) the amount of such contributions and earnings received during or prior to the Year over (b)
the amount of such payments in prior Years. Such contributions and earnings shall be accounted for
separately in the records of the Plan until the loan is repaid.

          15.4 Permitted Collateral. The only assets of the Plan that may be given as
collateral on an Exempt Loan are Common Stock acquired with the proceeds of the loan, and Common
Stock that was collateral on a prior Exempt Loan repaid with the proceeds of the current Exempt
Loan.

          15.5 Default. In the event of default upon an Exempt Loan, the value of Plan assets
transferred in satisfaction of the loan shall not exceed the amount of default. If the “lender”
(not including for this purpose a mere guarantor) is a disqualified person with respect to the
Plan, the loan must provide for a transfer of Plan assets on default only upon and to the extent of
the failure of the Plan to meet the payment schedule of the loan.

          15.6 Release from Encumbrance. In the event that an Exempt Loan is secured by
collateral in accordance with Section 15.4, such loan must provide for the release of such
collateral in accordance with applicable regulations.

          15.7 Suspense Account. All Common Stock acquired with the proceeds of an Exempt Loan
shall be added to and maintained in a Suspense Account. In the event that all of such Common Stock
shall be pledged as collateral for such loan, such Common Stock shall be withdrawn from the
Suspense Account at the rate at which it is released from such pledge as provided in Section 15.6.
In all other cases, such Common Stock shall be withdrawn from the Suspense Account at the rate that
would apply under the foregoing provisions of this Section 15.7 if all such Common Stock had been
so pledged. For such purpose, the rate of withdrawal from the Suspense Account shall be determined
under applicable regulations based on the proportion of payments of both principal and interest
paid for the Year, unless (a) the Committee shall elect to determine the rate of withdrawal solely
with reference to principal payments and (b) a withdrawal based solely on principal payments shall
be permissible under applicable regulations.

          15.8 Put Option. Except as provided in the following provisions of this Section 15.8,
Common Stock acquired with the proceeds of an Exempt Loan shall not be subject to a put, call or
other option, or buy-sell or similar arrangement while held by and when distributed by the Plan,
whether or not the Plan is then an ESOP.

- 43 -

 

               15.8.1 Legal Requirement. Common Stock acquired with the proceeds of an Exempt Loan
shall be subject to a put option on the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 15.8, which
terms and conditions shall be construed and applied so as at all times to comply with applicable
regulations under section 4975 of the Code and section 407(d)(6) of ERISA. Without limiting the
generality of Sections 12.1 and 12.3, or any other provision of the Plan, in the event that
applicable provisions of law, or regulations, are subsequently modified so as to require or permit
a change in any of such terms or conditions, or to require or permit new, different or additional
terms or conditions, the Company reserves the right to amend this Section 15.8 in any respect or
manner which it may deem necessary or desirable in order to comply with or conform to applicable
law or regulations as so modified.

               15.8.2 Put Options. If Common Stock acquired with the proceeds of an Exempt Loan,
when distributed, is not publicly traded or is subject to a restriction under federal or state
securities laws or regulations thereunder, or under an agreement affecting such Common Stock which
would make such stock not as freely tradable as stock not subject to such a restriction, a Member
shall have the option to put such stock to the Company at a price equal to the fair market value
thereof, as determined under a fair valuation formula in compliance with any applicable
regulations. Solely for the purposes of this Section 15.8, a Member shall mean a Member (or former
Member) or his Beneficiary to whom the Plan has distributed shares of Common Stock acquired with
the proceeds of an Exempt Loan, or a donee of either thereof or any person (including an estate or
its distributee) to whom such Common Stock passes by reason of the death of a Member (or former
Member) or a Beneficiary. Under no circumstances may the put option bind the Plan; however, the
Trustee in its discretion may elect to assume the rights and obligations of the Company with
respect to any put option at the time it is exercised by giving written notice thereof (in such
form as the Trustee shall in its discretion determine) to the Member exercising the put option. If
it is known at the time an Exempt Loan is made that federal or state law will be violated by the
Company’s honoring the put option described in this Section 15.8.2, a Member shall have the option
to put the Common Stock subject to this Section 15.8.2 in a manner consistent with such federal or
state law, to such affiliate or shareholder (other than this Plan) of the Company as the Company,
in its discretion, may designate (and in such case the provisions of this Section 15.8 shall be
applied as if such shareholder or affiliate were the Company to the extent necessary or
appropriate); provided, however, that any such affiliate or shareholder shall have substantial net
worth at the time the Exempt Loan is made and such net worth is reasonably expected to remain
substantial.

               15.8.3 Period of Exercisability. The put option shall be exercisable for a period of
at least 60 days following the date of distribution of Common Stock subject to a put option under
this Section 15.8 and, if the option is not exercised within such 60-day period, for an additional
period of at least 60 days in the following year. In no event shall any period during which a put
option is otherwise exercisable under this subsection 15.8.3 include any time during which a Member
is unable to exercise such option because the Company (or other party bound by the put option) is
prohibited from honoring it by applicable federal or state law, and the period during which a put
option is so exercisable shall be extended by the amount of time during which such prohibition was
in effect.

- 44 -

 

               15.8.4 Payment. The Company (or the Plan if it assumes the Company’s obligations
pursuant to Section 15.8.2, shall make full payment of the purchase price for Common Stock which is
the subject of a put option that is properly exercised by a Member within 30 days after the Member
surrenders to the Company (or the Plan) certificates representing such Common Stock, duly endorsed
or accompanied by a stock power duly executed, in either case with his signature duly guaranteed,
and accompanied by all required stock transfer stamps; provided, that in the event the shares put
to the Company pursuant to Section 15.8.2 were distributed to the Member as part of a total
distribution, the Company may elect to make such payment in substantially equal annual installments
over a period beginning within 30 days after the date the put option is exercised and not exceeding
five years if the Company provides adequate security and pays a reasonable interest rate with
respect thereto. Payment under a put option may not be restricted by the provisions of an Exempt
Loan or any other loan or arrangement entered into on or after November 1, 1977 to which the
Company or the Plan is a party or by which either is bound, unless so required by applicable state
law.

               15.8.5 Nonterminable Rights. The protections and rights provided by this Section
15.8.5 shall be nonterminable. Thus, if the Plan holds or has distributed Common Stock acquired
with the proceeds of an Exempt Loan, and either such loan is repaid or the Plan ceases to be an
ESOP, such protections and rights shall continue.

          15.9 Other Terms of Loan. An Exempt Loan must be for a specific term, and may not be
payable on demand except in the case of default. Such loan shall, at the time it is made, be on
terms at least as favorable to the Plan as the terms of a comparable loan resulting from arm’s
length negotiations between independent parties, and shall not require the payment of interest in
excess of a reasonable rate of interest.

ARTICLE XVI

Leased Employees

          16.1 Definitions. For purposes of this Article XVI, the term “Leased Employee” means
any person (a) who performs or performed services for an Employer or Affiliate (hereinafter
referred to as the “Recipient”) pursuant to an agreement between the Recipient and any other person
(hereinafter referred to as the “Leasing Organization”), (b) who has performed such services for
the Recipient or for the Recipient and related persons (within the meaning of section 144(a)(3) of
the Code) on a substantially full-time basis for a period of at least one year, and (c) whose
services are performed under primary direction or control by the Recipient.

          16.2 Treatment of Leased Employees. For purposes of this Plan, a Leased Employee
shall be treated as an ineligible employee of an Affiliate, whose service for the Recipient
(including service during the one-year period referred to in Section 16.1) is to be taken into
account in determining compliance with the service requirements of the Plan relating to
participation and vesting. However, the Leased Employee shall not be entitled to share in
contributions or forfeitures under the Plan with respect to any service or compensation
attributable to the period during which he is a Leased Employee, and shall not be eligible to

- 45 -

 

become a Member eligible to accrue benefits under the Plan unless and except to the extent
that he shall at some time, either before or after his service as a Leased Employee, qualify as an
Employee without regard to the provisions of this Article XVI (in which event, status as a Leased
Employee shall be determined without regard to clause (b) of Section 16.1, to the extent required
by applicable law).

          16.3 Exception for Employees Covered by Plans of Leasing Organization. Section 16.2
shall not apply to any Leased Employee if such employee is covered by a money purchase pension plan
of the Leasing Organization meeting the requirements of section 414(n)(5)(B) of the Code and Leased
Employees do not constitute more than 20% of the aggregate “nonhighly compensated work force” (as
defined in section 414(n)(5)(C)(ii) of the Code) of all Employers and Affiliates.

          16.4 Construction. The purpose of this Article XVI is to comply with the provisions
of section 4l4(n) of the Code. All provisions of this Article shall be construed consistently
therewith, and, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no individual shall be treated as
a Leased Employee except as required under such section.

ARTICLE XVII

“Top-Heavy” Provisions

          17.1 Determination of “Top-Heavy” Status.

               17.1.1 Applicable Plans. For purposes of this Article XVII, “Applicable Plans” shall
include (a) each plan of an Employer or Affiliate in which a Key Employee (as defined in Section
17.1.2 for this Plan, and as defined in section 416(i) of the Code for each other Applicable Plan)
participates during the five-year period ending on such plan’s “determination date” (as described
in Section 17.1.4) and (b) each other plan of an Employer or Affiliate which, during such period,
enables any plan in clause (a) of this sentence to meet the requirements of sections 401(a)(4) and
410 of the Code. Any plan not required to be included under the preceding sentence may also be
included, at the option of the Company, provided that the requirements of sections 401(a)(4) and
410 of the Code continue to be satisfied for the group of Applicable Plans after such inclusion.
Applicable Plans shall include terminated plans, frozen plans, and to the extent that benefits are
provided with respect to service with an Employer or an Affiliate, multiemployer plans (described
in section 414(f) of the Code) and multiple employer plans (described in section 413(c) of the
Code) to which an Employer or an Affiliate makes contributions.

               17.1.2 Key Employee. For purposes of this Article XVII, “Key Employee” for any Year
shall mean an employee (including a former employee, whether or not deceased) of an Employer or
Affiliate who, at any time during a given Year (or, for Years beginning prior to January 1, 2002,
any of the four (4) preceding Years), is one or more of the following:

- 46 -

 

                    (a) An officer of an Employer or Affiliate having Earnings greater than:

                         (i) for Years ending prior to January 1, 2002, fifty percent (50%) of the dollar amount in
effect under section 415(b)(1)(A) of the Code for any such Year; and

                         (ii) for Years beginning on or after January 1, 2002, $130,000 (as adjusted under section
416(i) of the Code);

provided that the number of employees treated as officers shall be no more than fifty (50) or, if
fewer, the greater of three (3) employees or ten percent (10%) of the employees including Leased
Employees as described in Section 16.1 (exclusive of employees described in section 414(q)(5) of
the Code).

                    (b) For Years ending prior to January 1, 2002, one of the ten (10) employees (i) having
Earnings of more than the dollar amount described in Section 3.3.1 and (ii) owning (or considered
as owning, within the meaning of section 416(i) of the Code), the largest percentage interests in

Employer or Affiliate (or having more than five percent (5%) of the capital or profits interest in
any Employer or Affiliate that is not a corporation, determined under similar principles).

                    (d) A one percent (1%) owner of an Employer or an Affiliate having Earnings of more than one
hundred fifty thousand dollars ($150,000). “One percent (1%) owner” means any person who would be
described in Section 17.1.2(c) if “one percent (1%)” were substituted for “five percent (5%)” in
each place where it appears in Section 17.1.2(c) paragraph (iii).

               17.1.3 Top Heavy Condition. In any Year during which the sum, for all Key Employees,
of the present value of the cumulative accrued benefits under all Applicable Plans which are
defined benefit plans (determined based on the actuarial assumptions set forth in the “top-heavy”
provisions of such plans) and the aggregate of the accounts under all Applicable Plans which are
defined contribution plans, exceeds 60% of a similar sum determined for all members in such plans
(but excluding members who are former Key Employees), the Plan shall be deemed “Top-Heavy.”

               17.1.4 Determination Date. The determination as to whether this Plan is “Top-Heavy”
for a given Year shall be made on the last day of the preceding Year (the “Determination Date”);
and other plans shall be included in determining whether this Plan is

- 47 -

 

               “Top-Heavy” based on the determination date as defined in Code section 416(g)(4)(c) for each
such plan which occurs in the same calendar year as such Determination Date for this Plan.

               17.1.5 Valuation. The value of the account balance of accrued benefits for each
Applicable Plan will be determined subject to Code section 416 and the regulations thereunder, as
of the most recent Valuation Date occurring within the 12-month period ending on the applicable
determination date for such plan.

               17.1.6 Distributions within Determination Period. Subject to Section 17.1.7,
distributions from the Plan or any other Applicable Plan on account of severance from employment,
death or disability, made during the one (1)-year period ending on the applicable Determination
Date and other distributions from the Plan during the five (5)-year period ending on the applicable
determination date (or, prior to January 1, 2002, all distributions from the Plan (or any other
Applicable Plan) during the five (5)-year period ending on the applicable Determination Date) shall
be taken into account in determining whether the Plan is “Top-Heavy”, subject to Section 17.1.8 in
the case of transferees to or from other plans.

               17.1.7 No Services within Determination Period. Benefits and distributions shall not
be taken into account with respect to any individual who has not rendered any services to any
Employer or Affiliate at any time during the one (1)-year period (or prior to January 1, 2002,
during the five (5)-year period) ending on the applicable Determination Date.

               17.1.8 Compliance with Code Section 416. The calculation of the “Top-Heavy” ratio,
and the extent to which distributions, rollovers and transfers from this Plan or any other
Applicable Plan shall be taken into account, will be made in accordance with Code section 416 and
applicable regulations thereunder.

               17.1.9 Beneficiaries. The terms “Key Employee” and “Member” include their
beneficiaries.

               17.1.10 Accrued Benefit Under Defined Benefit Plans. Solely for purposes of
determining whether this Plan or any other Applicable Plan is “Top-Heavy” for a given Year, the
accrued benefit under any defined benefit plan of a Member other than a Key Employee shall be
determined under (a) the method, if any, that uniformly applies for accrual purposes under all
defined benefit plans maintained by the Employer or an Affiliate, or (b) if there is no such
method, as if such benefit accrued not more rapidly than at the slowest accrual rate permitted
under the fractional accrual rule of section 411(b)(1)(C) of the Code.

          17.2 Provisions Applicable in “Top-Heavy” Years. For any Year in which the Plan is
deemed to be “Top-Heavy,” the following provisions shall apply to any Member who has not terminated
employment before such Year.

               17.2.1 Required Allocation. The amount of Employer contributions and forfeitures
which shall be allocated to the account of any active Member who (a) is employed by an Employer or
Affiliate on the last day of the Year and (b) is not a Key Employee shall be (i) at least 3% of
such Member’s Earnings for such Year up to the amount determined in accordance with section
401(a)(17) of the Code, or, (ii) if less, an amount equal to such Earnings multiplied

- 48 -

 

by the highest allocation rate for any Key Employee. For purposes of the preceding sentence,
the allocation rate for each individual Key Employee shall be determined by dividing the Employer
contributions and forfeitures allocated to such Key Employee’s account under all Applicable Plans
considered together, by his Earnings; provided, however, that clause (ii) does not apply if this
Plan enables a defined benefit plan required to be so aggregated under Section 17.1.1 to meet the
requirements of section 401(a)(4) or 410 of the Code. The minimum-allocation provisions of this
Section 17.2.1 shall, to the extent necessary, be satisfied by special Employer contributions made
by the Employer for that purpose. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the minimum allocations otherwise
required by this Section 17.2.1 shall not be required to be made for any Member if such Member is
covered under a defined benefit plan maintained by an Employer or an Affiliate which provides the
minimum benefit required under section 416(c)(1) of the Code, and/or to the extent that the minimum
allocation otherwise required by this Section 17.2.1 is made under another defined contribution
plan maintained by an Employer or an Affiliate. In addition, any minimum allocation required to be
made for a Member who is not a Key Employee shall be deemed satisfied to the extent of the benefits
provided by any other qualified plan maintained by an Employer or an Affiliate.

               17.2.2 Vesting. Any Member shall be vested in his account on a basis at least as
favorable as is provided under the following schedule:

	 	 	 	 	 
	Years of Employment	 	Vested Percentage
	Less than 2
	 	 	0	%
	 
	 	 	 	 
	2 but less than 3
	 	 	20	%
	 
	 	 	 	 
	3 but less than 4
	 	 	40	%
	 
	 	 	 	 
	4 but less than 5
	 	 	60	%
	 
	 	 	 	 
	5 but less than 6
	 	 	80	%
	 
	 	 	 	 
	6 or more
	 	 	100	%

          In any Year in which the Plan is not deemed to be “Top- Heavy,” the minimum Vested Percentage
of any account shall be no less than that which was determined as of the last day of the last Year
in which the Plan was deemed to be “Top-Heavy.” The minimum vesting schedule set out above shall
apply to all benefits within the meaning of Code section 411(a)(7) except those attributable to
employee contributions, including benefits accrued before the effective date of this Article XVII
and benefits accrued before the Plan became “Top-Heavy.” Any vesting schedule change caused by
alterations in the Plan’s “Top-Heavy” status shall be deemed to result from a Plan amendment giving
rise to the right of election required by Code section 411(a)(10)(B).

          The provisions of Sections 17.2.1 and 17.2.2 shall not apply to any employee included in a
unit of employees covered by a collective bargaining agreement if, within the

- 49 -

 

meaning of section 416(i)(4) of the Code, retirement benefits were the subject of good faith
bargaining.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, ARROW ELECTRONICS, INC. has caused this instrument to be executed by its
duly authorized officer, and its corporate seal to be hereunto affixed, this 18th day of
April 2007 pursuant to authorization and direction of the Management Pension Investment and
