         had the  right to  receive  up to  18,043  options  as a result  of his
         election to waive a portion of his salary during the period from May 1,
         1999 through May 1, 2000. In accordance  with the terms of the 1999 MEP
         Agreement,  on the  Separation  Date,  Executive  has  obtained  14,284
         options  under the 1999 MEP  Agreement  by  reducing  his  compensation
         ($20,979.16  waived through February 15, 2000 divided by $5.875 (common
         stock  closing  price on April 23, 1999)  multiplied by 4 (the leverage
         factor)). Following the Separation Date, these options will continue to
         vest in accordance with the terms of the 1999 MEP Agreement.

         10. Extension of Options. Pursuant to a unanimous written consent dated
as of February 15, 2000, the Compensation Committee extended the exercise period
of all that had vested as of the  Separation  Date,  as  described in Section 8,
paragraphs A-F above, for twelve (12) months after the Separation Date.

     WHEREAS,  Executive is currently  serving as the Executive Vice  President,

with  MicroAge and  separation  therefrom  pursuant to the  following  terms and
conditions:

                                       I.

to Section 4.2 of the Amended and  Restated  Employment  Agreement,  dated as of
November  4, 1996,  by and  between  MicroAge  and  Executive  (the  "Employment

foregoing,  neither the Company nor Executive  intends that Executive  waive his

Restated Certificate of Incorporation.

                                      III.

     The  parties  and  their  respective  attorneys  agree  to hold  in  strict
confidence the terms and conditions of this Agreement.  The parties covenant and
agree that neither they nor their attorneys will, either directly or through any

Revenue  Service,  or any other  state or  federal  official  in  response  to a

Agreement)  Executive  agrees that Executive will not, within the United States,

     The parties confirm their continuing  obligations under Section 5.10 of the
Employment Agreement, which provides as follows:

     During the term of this Agreement and the Non-Competition  Period,  neither
     the  Executive nor the Company will  disparage the other,  and neither will
     disclose to any third party the conditions of Executive's  employment  with
     the Company,  except as may be required (i) pursuant to  applicable  law or
     regulations,  including the rules and  regulations  of the  Securities  and
     Exchange Commission, (ii) to effectuate the provisions of employee plans or

                                      VII.

     This Agreement  shall be governed in all respects,  whether as to validity,
construction,  capacity,  performance, or otherwise, by the laws of the State of
Arizona,  and no action  involving  this  Agreement may be brought except in the
Superior  Court for the State of Arizona or the Federal  District  Court for the
District of Arizona.

                                      VIII.

     If any provision of this Agreement or the application thereof is held to be
invalid,  void, or unenforceable for whatever reason,  the remaining  provisions
not so declared  shall  nevertheless  continue in full force and effect  without
being impaired in any manner whatsoever.

                                       IX.

     This  Agreement  constitutes  the sole and  entire  Agreement  between  the
parties hereto,  and supersedes any and all  understandings  and agreements made
prior  hereto,  other than the  Employment  Agreement.  There are no  collateral
understandings, representations, or agreements other than those contained herein
or in the Employment  Agreement.  It is understood and agreed that the execution
of this  Agreement  by MicroAge is not an  admission of liability on its part to
Executive,  but is an agreement to put to rest any claim of any kind  whatsoever
relating to the employment  relationship  or otherwise,  except that the parties
may enforce their respective rights under the Employment Agreement to the extent
they are not inconsistent with this Agreement.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF,  the undersigned  parties have signed this Agreement on

                                    ---------

                               Severance Benefits

     1. Section 4.2 Payments.  MicroAge and Executive acknowledge that Executive
is entitled to the following  payments pursuant to Section 4.2 of the Employment
Agreement (all capitalized terms have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the
Employment Agreement):

          A.  Accrued  Base  Salary  (Section  4.2(a)):  Executive  acknowledges
receipt of all Base Salary Payments through the Separation Date.

          B. Accrued Vacation Payment (Section 4.2(b)): see Paragraph 2 below.

          C. Accrued  Reimbursable  Expenses (Section  4.2(c)):  see Paragraph 3
below.

          D. Accrued Benefits (Section 4.2(d)): See Paragraphs 4-5 below.

          E. Accrued Annual Fixed Cash Bonus and Annual Incentive Bonus (Section
4.2(e)): not applicable.

          F.  Exercise  of Vested  Options  and  Warrants  (Section  2(f)):  see
Paragraph 8 below.

     2. Accrued Vacation Days. As of February 15, 2000,  Executive had 189 hours
of unused accrued hours, or 23.625 days (the "Accrued Vacation Days").  MicroAge
will  reimburse  Executive  for such unused  accrued  vacation days in an amount
equal to  Executive's  current  annual  base  salary  less  his 1999 MEP  waiver
($255,000)  multiplied  by a fraction,  the  numerator of which is the number of
unused accrued  vacation days (23.625),  and the denominator of which is 260. On
or  promptly  following  the  Separation  Date,   MicroAge  will  pay  Executive
$23,170.65 for these accrued unused vacation days.

     3.  Reimbursable  Expenses.  MicroAge  will,  in  accordance  with standard
policies,  reimburse  Executive  for all  reasonable  travel and other  expenses
incurred  by  Executive   prior  to  the  Separation   Date  and  submitted  for
reimbursement on or before March 15, 2000.

     4. Medical and Dental Plans. As of the Separation Date, MicroAge will cease
making  contributions  to the monthly  premiums it made while  Executive  was an
active  MicroAge  associate.  Executive's  monthly  premiums  are  paid  through
February 29,  2000.  Executive  will be entitled to 18 months of COBRA  coverage
(through  August 31, 2001) (the "COBRA  Period").  Executive will be required to
pay the full COBRA premium in order to continue  medical and/or dental  benefits
during the COBRA  Period.  Any  questions  regarding  COBRA  coverage  should be
directed to Tom Bock at 480-366-2527 or Tonya Fischer at 480-366-2661.

                                        7

<PAGE>

     5. 401(k) Plan and Supplemental Savings Plan. Executive participates in the
MicroAge  Retirement Savings Plan (the "401(k) Plan") and the MicroAge Executive
Supplemental  Savings Plan (the  "ESSP").  Executive  has  received  information
regarding  his  options  under  the  401(k)  Plan and the  ESSP.  Any  questions
regarding  the  401(k)  Plan or the  ESSP  should  be  directed  to Tom  Bock at
480-366-2527 or Vanessa Miller at  480-366-2287.  As of the Separation  Date, no
additional contributions will be made to the 401(k) Plan or the ESSP.

     6. Split-Dollar Insurance Agreement.  Executive and MicroAge entered into a
Split-Dollar   Insurance   Agreement,   dated  as  of  September  1,  1995  (the
"Split-Dollar Agreement").  MicroAge has paid the premium payments on the Policy
(as such term is defined in the Split-Dollar Agreement) through August 24, 2000.
By March 15, 2000,  Executive may elect to retain the Policy by paying  MicroAge
an amount equal to MicroAge's security interest in the Policy ($106,273.77).  If
Executive does not elect to retain the Policy,  MicroAge's obligations under the
Split-Dollar  Agreement will terminate and Executive will transfer the Policy to
MicroAge  pursuant to the Policy Change of Ownership  attached hereto as Exhibit
D.  Executive  agrees to sign  Exhibit D at the same time  Executive  signs this
Agreement.  MicroAge  will not cause the Policy to be  transferred  to  MicroAge
unless  Executive has not paid  MicroAge the security  interest in the Policy by
March 16, 2000.

     7.  Disability  Insurance.  Executive  currently has  disability  insurance
pursuant  to  separate  policies:  (1) the UNUM  Disability  Policy  (the  "UNUM
Policy") and (2) the Paul Revere  Individual  Disability Policy (the "Individual
Policy").  The UNUM Policy will  terminate  as of April 1, 2000.  MicroAge  will
cause the  Individual  Policy to remain in full force and effect until  December
22, 2000.  After December 22, 2000,  Executive will be responsible  for the full
premium payments if Executive  wishes to continue  coverage under the Individual
Policy.  If Executive elects to continue  coverage under the Individual  Policy,
Executive  should  contact  Ellen  Steele-Allare  (602-955-7370)  on  or  before
December 1, 2000.

     8. Stock Options  (Non-MEP).  During Executive's  employment  Executive was
granted the following stock options:

                  A. Pursuant to the 1994 Stock Option Plan Grant Letter,  dated
         as of  December  13,  1995 (the "1994  Grant  Letter"),  Executive  was
         granted the option to purchase a total of 10,000 shares of Common Stock
