Exhibit 10.1

AVNET, INC.

Amended & Restated as of August 10, 2006

1997 Stock Option Plan

ARTICLE I

Purpose of the Plan

The 1997 Stock Option Plan (the “Plan”) is intended to advance the interests of the Company by assisting Avnet and its Subsidiaries in attracting high caliber persons to serve as Eligible Employees and Non-Employee Directors, and in inducing such persons to remain as Eligible Employees and Non-Employee Directors, by virtue of the additional incentive to promote the Company’s success which results from the possession of options to purchase shares of Avnet’s Common Stock.

ARTICLE II

Definitions

The following words and phrases used herein shall, unless the context otherwise indicates, have the following meanings:

1. “Avnet” shall mean Avnet, Inc.

2. “Board of Directors” and “Director” shall mean, respectively, the Board of Directors of Avnet and any member thereof.

3. “Committee” shall mean a committee charged with administering this Plan, which Committee shall be appointed by the Board of Directors, shall consist of three or more Non-Employee Directors, none of whom is eligible to be granted Options or Stock Appreciation Rights by the Committee under this Plan, shall have authority to grant Options and Stock Appreciation Rights hereunder to Eligible Employees on such terms and subject to such conditions (not inconsistent with the terms of this Plan) as such Committee shall determine, and shall have full authority to construe this Plan, to prescribe and amend rules and regulations relating hereto, and to make all other determinations in the administration hereof.

4. “Company” shall mean Avnet and all its Subsidiaries.

5. “Eligible Employees” shall mean any regular full-time employee of Avnet or of any of its Subsidiaries (including any Director who is also such a regular full-time employee), and may include, in appropriate circumstances relating to the granting of Options and Stock Appreciation Rights hereunder, any person who is under consideration for employment by the Company and any person employed by a business which is then to be acquired by Avnet. The term “Eligible Employees” shall also include any person employed or retained by Avnet or any of its Subsidiaries to render services as a consultant or advisor other than services in connection with the offer or sale of securities in a capital-raising transaction.

6. “Fair Market Value” when used with respect to a particular date, shall mean the closing price (as reported for New York Stock Exchange Composite Transactions) at which shares of the Stock shall have been sold on such date or, if such date is a date for which no trading is so reported, on the next preceding date for which trading is so reported.

7. “Non-Employee Director” shall mean a Director who is not an Eligible Employee.

8. “Option” shall mean any option granted or held pursuant to the provisions of this Plan.

9. “Option Agreement” shall mean the agreement evidencing any Option hereunder, including any addendum thereto relating to Stock Appreciation Rights, which agreement may be in any form prescribed or accepted by the Committee therefor (in the case of an Option Agreement with an Eligible Employee), or in any form prescribed or accepted by the Board of Directors (in the case of an Option Agreement with a Non-Employee Director).

10. “Optionee” shall mean any person who at the time in question holds any Option which then remains unexercised in whole or in part, has not been surrendered for complete termination and has not expired or terminated, and shall include any Successor Optionee.

11. “Plan” shall mean this stock option plan.

12. “Stock” shall, subject to the anti-dilution provisions set forth in Article VIII hereof, mean the Common Stock of Avnet, as presently constituted.

13. “Stock Appreciation Right” or “SAR” shall mean any right granted under this Plan which entitles an Optionee to receive (a) shares of Stock having a Fair Market Value at the date of exercise of such SAR, or (b) cash in the amount of such Fair Market Value, or (c) a combination of shares of Stock and cash equal in the aggregate to such Fair Market Value, equivalent to all or part of the difference between the aggregate exercise price of the portion of the related Option which is being surrendered for termination and the Fair Market Value at such date of the shares of Stock for which such SAR is being exercised. An SAR may be granted by the Committee with respect to any Option simultaneously or previously granted under this Plan to an Eligible Employee, and an SAR may be granted by the Board of Directors with respect to any Option simultaneously or previously granted under this Plan to a Non-Employee Director; and, when granted, may be granted by the Committee or the Board of Directors upon such terms and subject to such conditions as the Committee or the Board of Directors may in its discretion prescribe or approve; provided that an SAR shall only be exercisable by the Optionee to whom such SAR was initially granted, shall only be exercisable during the period when Optionee is an Eligible Employee or a Non-Employee Director and shall not be exercisable by a Successor Optionee.

14. “Subsidiary” shall mean any corporation 80% of the total combined voting power of all classes of capital stock of which shall at the time in question be owned by Avnet and/or any of its subsidiaries.

15. “Successor Optionee” shall mean any person whom, under the provisions of Article V hereof, shall have acquired the right to exercise any Option by will or the laws of descent and distribution.

ARTICLE III

Shares Reserved for the Plan

1. Subject to the anti-dilution provisions set forth in Article VIII hereof, the maximum number of shares of Stock which may be delivered by Avnet pursuant to the exercise of Options and/or Stock Appreciation Rights shall be 1,000,000. At no time shall there be outstanding Options for the purchase of more than 1,000,000 shares of Stock (subject to said anti-dilution provisions) less the aggregate of the number of shares of Stock previously delivered pursuant to the exercise of Options and the number of shares of Stock previously covered by Options terminated upon surrender in connection with the exercise of Stock Appreciation Rights.

2. The shares of Stock subjected to Options and Stock Appreciation Rights may, in the discretion of the Committee and with the consent of the Board of Directors (in the case of Options and Stock Appreciation Rights granted to Eligible Employees), or in the discretion of the Board of Directors (in the case of Options and Stock Appreciation Rights granted to Non-Employee Directors), consist of authorized but unissued shares of Stock and/or shares of Stock held in the treasury of Avnet.

3. If any Option shall be surrendered and terminated or for any other reason shall terminate or expire, whether in whole or in part (except for terminations in connection with exercises of Stock Appreciation Rights), the shares of Stock covered by such Option immediately prior to such termination or expiration shall thereupon be added to the shares of Stock otherwise available for subjection to Options and Stock Appreciation Rights hereunder.

ARTICLE IV

Administration of the Plan

1. This Plan shall be administered by the Committee with respect to Options and SARs granted to Eligible Employees, and shall be administered by the Board of Directors with respect to Options and SARs granted to Non-Employee Directors. The Committee and the Board of Directors each shall have full power to construe and interpret the Plan in connection with their respective administration of the Plan, and to establish and amend rules and regulations for such respective administration.

2. In addition to paragraph 1 of this Article IV (and without limiting the generality thereof), the Committee shall have plenary authority (subject to the provisions of Articles II, III, V and VI hereof) in its discretion to determine the time or times at which Options and/or Stock Appreciation Rights shall be granted to Eligible Employees, the Eligible Employees to whom Options and/or Stock Appreciation Rights shall be granted and the number of shares of Stock to be covered by each such Option and/or Stock Appreciation Right. The granting of Options and/or Stock Appreciation Rights by the Committee shall be entirely discretionary; the terms and conditions (not inconsistent with this Plan) prescribed or approved for any Option Agreement with an Eligible Employee shall similarly be within the discretion of the Committee; and nothing in this Plan shall be deemed to give any Eligible Employee any right to receive Options and/or Stock Appreciation Rights.

2a. In addition to paragraph 1 of this Article IV (and without limiting the generality thereof), the Board of Directors shall have plenary authority (subject to the provisions of Articles II, III, V and VI hereof) in its discretion to determine the time or times at which Options and/or Stock Appreciation Rights shall be granted to Non-Employee Directors, the Non-Employee Directors to whom Options and/or Stock Appreciation Rights shall be granted and the number of shares of Stock to be covered by each such Option and/or Stock Appreciation Right; provided that the members of the Committee shall abstain from participating in any action taken by the Board of Directors with respect to Options and/or Stock Appreciation Rights granted or to be granted to any such members. The granting of Options and/or Stock Appreciation Rights by the Board of Directors shall be entirely discretionary; the terms and conditions (not inconsistent with this Plan) prescribed or approved for any Option Agreement with a Non-Employee Director shall similarly be within the discretion of the Board of Directors; and nothing in this Plan shall be deemed to give any Non-Employee Director any right to receive Options and/or Stock Appreciation Rights.”

3. The Committee is also specifically authorized, in the event of a public solicitation, by any person, firm or corporation other than Avnet, of tenders of 50% or more of the then outstanding Stock (known conventionally as a “tender offer”), to accelerate exercisability of any or all Options and any or all of the related Stock Appreciation Rights held by Optionees then employed as an Eligible Employee, so that such Options and Stock Appreciation Rights will immediately become exercisable in full; provided that such accelerated exercisability shall continue in effect only until expiration, termination or withdrawal of such “tender offer”, whereupon such Options and related Stock Appreciation Rights will be (and continue thereafter to be) exercisable only to the extent that they would have been exercisable if no such acceleration of exercisability had been authorized.

3a. The Board of Directors is also specifically authorized, in the event of a tender offer, by any person, firm or corporation other than Avnet, for 50% or more of the then outstanding Stock, to accelerate exercisability of any or all Options and any or all of the related Stock Appreciation Rights held by Optionees then serving as Non-Employee Directors, so that such Options and/or Stock Appreciation Rights will immediately become exercisable in full; provided that such accelerated exercisability shall continue in effect only until expiration, termination or withdrawal of such ‘tender offer,’ whereupon such Options and related Stock Appreciation Rights will be (and continue thereafter to be) exercisable only to the extent they would have been exercisable if no such acceleration of exercisability had been authorized.

4. A majority of the members of the Committee (but not less than two) shall constitute a quorum, and all acts, decisions or determinations of the Committee shall be by majority vote of such of its members as shall be present at a meeting duly held at which a quorum is so present. Any act, decision, or determination of the Committee reduced to writing and signed by a majority of its members (but not less than two) shall be fully effective as if it had been made, taken or done by vote of such majority at a meeting duly called and held.

5. The Committee shall deliver a report to the Board of Directors with reasonable promptness following the taking of any action(s) in the administration of this Plan, which report shall set forth in full the action(s) so taken. The Committee shall also file such other reports and make such other information available as may from time to time be prescribed by the Board of Directors.

ARTICLE V

Award and Modification of Options

1. Options may be granted by the Committee to Eligible Employees, and may be granted by the Board of Directors to Non-Employee Directors, from time to time in their discretion prior to November 19, 2007 or the earlier termination of the Plan as provided in Article IX.

2. During the period when any Option granted by the Committee to an Eligible Employee is outstanding, the Committee may, for such consideration (if any) as may be deemed adequate by it and with the prior consent of the Optionee, modify the terms of such Option, including the purchase price, with respect to the unexercised portion thereof. During the period when any Option granted by the Board of Directors to a Non-Employee Director is outstanding, the Board of Directors may, for such consideration (if any) as may be deemed adequate by it and with the prior consent of the Optionee, modify the terms of the Option, including the purchase price, with respect to the unexercised portion thereof.

3. The purchase price per share of Stock upon the exercise of each Option shall be no less than 85% of the Fair Market Value of the Stock at the date of the granting thereof; provided, however, (i) that the purchase price per share of Stock shall in no event be less than the par value per share of the Stock and (ii) options whose purchase price per share on exercise is less than 100% of the Fair Market Value at the date of the granting thereof may be granted only in lieu of a reasonable amount of cash compensation.

4. Subject to the specific authority bestowed upon the Committee in Article IV, paragraph 3 hereof, and to the specific authority bestowed upon the Board of Directors in Article IV, paragraph 3a hereof, (i) no Option shall be exercisable to any extent until the first anniversary of the date of the granting thereof, (ii) thereafter, each Option shall be exercisable with respect to 25% of the total number of shares of Stock subject thereto and (iii) upon each succeeding anniversary date of the date of grant, each Option will become exercisable on a cumulative basis with respect to an additional 25% of the shares subject thereto. To the extent that any Option shall have become exercisable as provided in the preceding sentence, such Option may thereafter be exercised by the Optionee in whole at any time or in part from time to time prior to the surrender for termination, expiration or other termination of such Option. Each Option shall expire and cease to be exercisable after the day prior to the tenth anniversary of the date of granting thereof.

5. The aggregate number of shares of Stock under any Option or Options granted hereunder to any Optionee in any calendar year may not exceed 150,000.

6. No Option shall be assignable or transferable by an Optionee except in the event of the death of such Optionee, nor shall any Option be exercisable during the lifetime of the Optionee except by such Optionee. Subject to the provisions of paragraph 8 below, in the event of death, while in the employ of the Company or while a Director, of any Optionee to whom an Option was originally granted, such option shall remain exercisable (unless such Option shall sooner be surrendered or expire) for one year after the date of death of such original Optionee, but only (a) by the person or persons to whom the right to exercise such Option shall have passed by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and (b) if and to the extent that such Option shall have been exercisable by such original Optionee at such date of death.

7. In the event that any Eligible Employee shall cease to be employed by the Company for any reason other than death, disability, retirement or other reasons determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, each outstanding Option theretofore granted to such Eligible Employee shall forthwith upon such cessation of employment terminate and cease to be exercisable. Subject to the provisions of paragraph 8 below, in the event that any Eligible Employee shall cease to be employed by the Company due to disability, retirement or other reasons determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, each outstanding Option theretofore granted to such Eligible Employee shall remain exercisable for three months after the date of such cessation of employment, but may be exercised only (a) by such Eligible Employee or by the person or persons to whom the right to exercise such Option shall have passed by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and (b) if and to the extent that such Option was exercisable by such Eligible Employee at such date of cessation of employment. At the end of the aforesaid three-month period, such Option (unless it shall sooner have been surrendered for termination or have expired) shall terminate and cease to be exercisable.

7a. In the event that any Non-Employee Director shall cease to be a Director for any reason other than death, disability, the normal expiration of such Non-Employee Director’s term as a Director without re-election, or other reasons determined by the Board of Directors in its sole discretion, each outstanding Option theretofore granted to such Non-Employee Director shall forthwith upon such cessation terminate and cease to be exercisable. Subject to the provisions of paragraph 8 below, in the event that any Non-Employee Director shall cease to be a Director due to disability, the normal expiration of such Non-Employee Director’s term as a Director without re-election, or other reasons determined by the Board of Directors in its sole discretion, each outstanding Option theretofore granted to such Non-Employee Director shall remain exercisable for such period, up to five years after the date on which the Optionee ceases to be a Director, as the Board of Directors shall have fixed in the Option Agreement evidencing such Options, but may be exercised only by such Non-Employee Director or by the person or persons to whom the right to exercise such Option shall have passed by will or the laws of descent and distribution. Such Option shall continue to become exercisable as provided in paragraph 4 of this Article V after the date on which the Optionee ceases to be a Director. At the end of the aforesaid period of up to five years, such Option (unless it shall sooner have been surrendered for termination or have expired) shall terminate and cease to be exercisable.

8. Notwithstanding the provisions of the second sentence of paragraph 6 and the second sentences of paragraphs 7 and 7a above, (a) no Option shall in any event be exercisable after the day prior to the tenth anniversary of the date of the granting thereof, and (b) any Option for which accelerated exercisability, authorized pursuant to Article IV, paragraph 3 or 3a hereof, was in effect at the date of the original Optionee’s death or at the date of termination of the Optionee’s employment or membership on the Board of Directors due to disability, retirement, cessation of membership on the Board of Directors or otherwise as may be determined by the Committee or the Board of Directors in its sole discretion, as the case may be, shall be subject to the proviso to Article IV, paragraph 3 or 3a.

ARTICLE VI

Stock Appreciation Rights

1. Stock Appreciation Rights may be granted to Eligible Employees in the discretion of the Committee and to Non-Employee Directors in the discretion of the Board of Directors, upon such terms and conditions as the Committee or the Board of Directors may prescribe. Each SAR shall be granted in connection with and shall relate to all or part of a specific Option simultaneously or previously granted under the Plan. In the discretion of the Committee or the Board of Directors, an SAR may be granted at any time prior to the exercise, expiration or termination of the Option related thereto, and may be modified at any time the related Option is modified.

2. Upon exercise of a Stock Appreciation Right, the Optionee shall be entitled to receive (a) shares of Stock having a Fair Market Value at the date of exercise, or (b) cash in the amount of such Fair Market Value, or (c) a combination of shares of Stock and cash equal in the aggregate to such Fair Market Value, equivalent to all or part of the difference between the aggregate exercise price of the portion of the related Option which is being surrendered for termination and the Fair Market Value at such date of the shares of Avnet’s Common Stock for which such SAR is being exercised.

3. Each Stock Appreciation Right granted to an Eligible Employee shall be exercisable on such dates or during such periods as may be determined by the Committee, and each Stock Appreciation Right granted to a Non-Employee Director shall be exercisable on such dates or during such periods as may be determined by the Board of Directors, provided that no SAR shall be exercisable at a time when the Option related thereto could not be exercised nor may it be exercised with respect to a number of shares in excess of the number for which such Option could then be exercised.

4. A Stock Appreciation Right may be exercised only upon surrender by the Optionee, for termination, of the portion of the related Option, which is then exercisable to purchase the number of shares for which the Stock Appreciation Right is being exercised. Shares covered by the terminated Option or portion thereof shall not be available for subjection to other Options under the Plan.

5. The Committee may impose any other conditions upon the exercise of Stock Appreciation Rights granted to Eligible Employees, and the Board of Directors may impose any other conditions upon the exercise of Stock Appreciation Rights granted to Non-Employee Directors, which conditions may include a condition that any particular SARs or any class of SARs may only be exercised in accordance with rules adopted by the Committee or the Board of Directors, as appropriate, from time to time. Such rules may govern the right to exercise SARs granted prior to the adoption or amendment of such rules as well as SARs granted thereafter.

6. The Committee or the Board of Directors may at any time amend, terminate or suspend any Stock Appreciation Right theretofore granted by it under this Plan, provided that the terms of any SAR after any amendment shall conform to the provisions of the Plan. Each SAR shall terminate and cease to be exercisable upon the termination (other than a termination required in connection with exercise of the SAR) or expiration of the Option related thereto.

ARTICLE VII

Additional Terms and Provisions

1. The Committee or the Board of Directors shall, promptly after the granting of any Option or Stock Appreciation Right or the modification of any outstanding Option or SAR, cause such Optionee to be notified of such action and shall cause Avnet to deliver to such Optionee an Option Agreement (which Option Agreement is to be signed on behalf of Avnet by an officer of Avnet with appropriate authorization therefor) evidencing the Option so granted or modified and the terms and conditions thereof and including (when appropriate) an addendum evidencing the SAR so granted or modified and the terms and conditions thereof.

2. The date on which the Committee or the Board of Directors approves the granting of any Option or Stock Appreciation Right, or approves the modification of any outstanding Option or SAR, shall be deemed the date on which such Option or SAR is granted or modified, regardless of the date on which the Option Agreement evidencing the same is executed.

3. To the extent that any Option or Stock Appreciation Right shall have become exercisable as provided in Article V or Article VI above, such Option or SAR may be exercised by the Optionee at any time and from time to time by written notice to Avnet stating the number of shares of Stock with respect to which such Option or SAR is being exercised, accompanied (as to an Option exercise) by payment in full therefor as prescribed below and (as to an SAR exercise) by an instrument effecting surrender for termination of the relevant portion of the Option related thereto. As soon as practicable after receipt of such notice, Avnet shall, without requiring payment of any transfer or issue tax by the Optionee, deliver to the Optionee, at the principal office of Avnet (or such other place as Avnet may designate), a certificate or certificates representing the shares of Stock acquired upon such exercise; provided, however, that the date for any such delivery may be postponed by Avnet for such period as it may require, in the exercise of reasonable diligence (a) to register the shares of Stock so purchased (together with any part or all of the balance of the shares of Stock which may be delivered pursuant to the exercise of Options and/or Stock Appreciation Rights) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and/or to obtain the opinions of counsel referred to in clauses (B) and (E) of paragraph 7 below, and (b) to comply with the applicable listing requirements of any national securities exchange or with any other requirements of law. If any Optionee shall fail to accept delivery of all or any part of the shares of Stock with respect to which such Option or SAR is being exercised, upon tender thereof, the right of such Optionee to exercise such Option and the related SAR, or to exercise such SAR and the related Option, with respect to such unaccepted shares may, in the discretion of the Committee (in the case of an Option granted to an Eligible Employee) or the Board of Directors (in the case of an Option granted to a Non-Employee Director), be terminated. For purposes of this paragraph 3, payment upon exercise of an Option may be made (i) by check (certified, if so required by Avnet) in the amount of the aggregate exercise price of the portion of the Option being exercised, or (ii) in the form of certificates representing shares of Stock (duly endorsed or accompanied by appropriate stock powers, in either case with signature guaranteed if so required by Avnet) having a Fair Market Value, at the date of receipt by Avnet of such certificates and the notice above mentioned, equal to or in excess of such aggregate exercise price, or (iii) by a combination of check and certificates for shares of Stock.

4. Notwithstanding paragraph 3 of this Article VII, upon each exercise of an Option, the Optionee shall pay to Avnet an amount required to be withheld under applicable income tax laws in connection with such exercise. An Optionee whose transactions in Common Stock are subject to the provisions of Section 16(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Act”) may, in the discretion of the Committee and subject to any rules as the Committee may adopt (in the case of an Optionee who was an Eligible Employee on the date of grant), or in the discretion of the Board of Directors and subject to such rules as the Board of Directors may adopt (in the case of an Optionee who was a Non-Employee Director on the date of grant), elect to satisfy such obligation, in whole or in part, by electing to have Avnet withhold shares of Stock having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount required to be so withheld (an “election”). The Fair Market Value of a share of Stock shall be the Fair Market Value on the date that the amount to be withheld is determined (the “Tax Date”). An Optionee shall pay Avnet in cash for any fractional share that would otherwise be required to be withheld. Each Election with respect to the exercise of an Option shall be subject to the following restrictions:

(A) The Election must be made on or prior to the Tax Date;

(B) The Election shall be irrevocable;

(C) The Election is subject to the disapproval of the Committee (in the case of an Optionee who was an Eligible Employee on the date of grant) or the Board of Directors (in the case of an Optionee who was a Non-Employee Director on the date of grant);

(D) An Election by an Optionee may not be made within six months of the grant of the Option with respect to which such Election is made; provided, however that this restriction shall not apply in the event that the Optionee shall die or become disabled prior to the expiration of such six-month period; and

5. The Plan shall not confer upon any Optionee any right with respect to continuance of employment by the Company or continuance of membership on the Board of Directors, nor shall it interfere in any way with his or her right, or the Company’s right, to terminate his or her employment at any time.

6. No Optionee shall acquire or have any rights as a shareholder of Avnet by virtue of any Option or any SAR until the certificates representing shares of Stock issued pursuant to the exercise of such Option or SAR are delivered to such Optionee in accordance with the terms of the Plan, but the rights as a shareholder of record as of the date of giving notice of the exercise of such Option or SAR and making delivery to Avnet of the funds, certificates and/or other instruments as provided in paragraph 3 above.

7. While it is Avnet’s present intention to register under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the shares of Stock which may be delivered pursuant to the exercise of Options and/or Stock Appreciation Rights granted under the Plan, nevertheless, any provisions in this Plan to the contrary notwithstanding, Avnet shall not be obligated to sell or deliver any shares of Stock pursuant to the exercise of any Option or any SAR unless (A) (i) such shares have at the time of such exercise been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (ii) no stop order suspending the effectiveness of such registration statement has been issued and no proceedings therefor have been instituted or threatened under said Act, and (iii) there is available at the time of such exercise a prospectus containing certified financial statements and other information meeting the requirements of Section 10(a)(3) of said Act, or (B) Avnet shall have received from its counsel an opinion that registration of such shares under said Act is not required, (C) such shares are at the same time of such exercise, or upon official notice of issuance will be, listed on each national securities exchange on which the Stock is then listed, (D) the prior approval of such sale has been obtained from any State regulatory body having jurisdiction (but nothing herein contained shall be deemed to require Avnet to register or qualify as a foreign corporation in any State nor, except as to any matter or transaction relating to the sale or delivery of such shares, to consent to service of process in any State), and (E) Avnet shall have received an opinion from its counsel with respect to compliance with the matters set forth in clauses (A), (C), and (D) above.

1. In the event that the Stock shall be split up, divided or otherwise reclassified into or exchanged for a greater or lesser number of shares of Stock or into shares of Common Stock and/or any other securities of Avnet by reason of recapitalization, reclassification, stock split or reverse split, combination of shares or other reorganization, the term “Stock” as used herein shall thereafter mean the number and kind of shares or other securities into which the Stock shall have been so split up, divided or otherwise reclassified or for which the Stock shall have been so exchanged; and the remaining number of shares of Stock which may, in the aggregate, thereafter be delivered pursuant to the exercise of Options and/or Stock Appreciation Rights (as specified in paragraph 1 of Article III hereof) and the remaining number of shares of Stock which may thereafter be delivered pursuant to the exercise of any Options and/or Stock Appreciation Rights then outstanding shall be correspondingly adjusted. In the event that any dividend payable in shares of Stock is paid to the holders of outstanding shares of Stock, the remaining number of shares of Stock which may, in the aggregate, thereafter be delivered pursuant to the exercise of Options and/or Stock Appreciation Rights (as specified in paragraph 1 of Article III hereof) and the remaining number of shares of Stock which may thereafter be delivered pursuant to the exercise of any Options and/or Stock Appreciation Rights then outstanding shall be increased by the percentage which the number of shares of Stock so paid as a dividend bears to the total number of shares of Stock outstanding immediately prior to the payment of such dividend.

2. In the event that the Stock shall be split up, divided or otherwise reclassified or exchanged as provided in the preceding paragraph, the purchase price per share of Stock upon exercise of outstanding Options shall be correspondingly adjusted.

3. Anything in this Article VIII to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that, upon any adjustment made in accordance with paragraph 1 above, the remaining number of shares of Stock which may thereafter be delivered pursuant to the exercise of any Option or Stock Appreciation Right then outstanding shall include a fractional share of Stock, such fractional share of Stock shall be disregarded for all purposes of the Plan and the Optionee holding such Option or SAR shall become entitled neither to purchase the same nor to receive cash or scrip in payment therefor or in lieu thereof.

ARTICLE IV
ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN

1. This Plan shall be administered by the Committee with respect to Options and SARs granted to Eligible Employees, and shall be administered by the Board of Directors with respect to Options and SARs granted to Non-Employee Directors. The Committee and the Board of Directors each shall have full and exclusive power to construe and interpret the Plan, and to establish and amend rules and regulations for the administration of the Plan, in connection with Options and SARs granted to the persons within their respective spheres of administrative responsibility as provided in the preceding sentence.

2. In addition to paragraph 1 of this Article IV (and without limiting the generality thereof), the Committee shall have plenary authority (subject to the provisions of Articles II, III, V and VI hereof) in its discretion to determine the time or times at which Options and/or Stock Appreciation Rights shall be granted to Eligible Employees, the Eligible Employees to whom Options and/or Stock Appreciation Rights shall be granted, the number of shares of Stock to be covered by each such Option and/or Stock Appreciation Right, and (to the extent not inconsistent with the provisions of this Plan) the terms and conditions upon which each such Option and/or Stock Appreciation Right may be exercised. The granting of Options and/or Stock Appreciation Rights by the Committee shall be entirely discretionary; the terms and conditions (not inconsistent with this Plan) prescribed or approved for any Option Agreement with an Eligible Employee shall similarly be within the discretion of the Committee; and nothing in this Plan shall be deemed to give any Eligible Employee any right to receive Options and/or Stock Appreciation Rights. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Committee, in its discretion, may grant Options to any Eligible Employee upon such terms and conditions as may be necessary for such Options to qualify as incentive stock options within the meaning of section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

2a. In addition to paragraph 1 of this Article IV (and without limiting the generality thereof), the Board of Directors shall have plenary authority (subject to the provisions of Articles II, III, V and VI hereof) in its discretion to determine the time or times at which Options and/or Stock Appreciation Rights shall be granted to Non-Employee Directors, the Non-Employee Directors to whom Options and/or Stock Appreciation Rights shall be granted, the number of shares of Stock to be covered by each such Option and/or Stock Appreciation Right, and (to the extent not inconsistent with the provisions of this Plan) the terms and conditions upon which each such Option and/or Stock Appreciation Right may be exercised; provided that the members of the Committee shall abstain from participating in any action taken by the Board of Directors with respect to Options and/or Stock Appreciation Rights granted or to be granted to any such members. The granting of Options and/or Stock Appreciation Rights by the Board of Directors shall be entirely discretionary; the terms and conditions (not inconsistent with this Plan) prescribed or approved for any Option Agreement with a Non-Employee Director shall similarly be within the discretion of the Board of Directors; and nothing in this Plan shall be deemed to give any Non-Employee Director any right to receive Options and/or Stock Appreciation Rights.

3. The Committee is also specifically authorized, in the event of a public solicitation, by any person, firm or corporation other than Avnet, of tenders of 50% or more of the then outstanding Stock (known conventionally as a “tender offer”), to accelerate exercisability of any or all Options and any or all of the related Stock Appreciation Rights held by Optionees then employed as an Eligible Employee, so that such Options and Stock Appreciation Rights will immediately become exercisable in full; provided that such accelerated exercisability shall continue in effect only until expiration, termination or withdrawal of such “tender offer”, whereupon such Options and related Stock Appreciation Rights will be (and continue thereafter to be) exercisable only to the extent that they would have been exercisable if no such acceleration of exercisability had been authorized.

3a. The Board of Directors is also specifically authorized, in the event of a tender offer, by any person, firm or corporation other than Avnet, for 50% or more of the then outstanding Stock, to accelerate exercisability of any or all Options and any or all of the related Stock Appreciation Rights held by Optionees then serving as Non-Employee Directors, so that such Options and/or Stock Appreciation Rights will immediately become exercisable in full; provided that such accelerated exercisability shall continue in effect only until expiration, termination or withdrawal of such “tender offer,” whereupon such Options and related Stock Appreciation Rights will be (and continue thereafter to be) exercisable only to the extent they would have been exercisable if no such acceleration of exercisability had been authorized.

4. A majority of the members of the Committee (but not less than two) shall constitute a quorum, and all acts, decisions or determinations of the Committee shall be by majority vote of such of its members as shall be present at a meeting duly held at which a quorum is so present. Any act, decision, or determination of the Committee reduced to writing and signed by a majority of its members (but not less than two) shall be fully effective as if it had been made, taken or done by vote of such majority at a meeting duly called and held.

5. The Committee shall deliver a report to the Board of Directors with reasonable promptness following the taking of any action(s) in the administration of this Plan, which report shall set forth in full the action(s) so taken. The Committee shall also file such other reports and make such other information available as may from time to time be prescribed by the Board of Directors.

ARTICLE V
AWARD AND MODIFICATION OF OPTIONS

1. Options may be granted by the Committee to Eligible Employees, and may be granted by the Board of Directors to Non-Employee Directors, from time to time in their discretion prior to November 21, 2009 or the earlier termination of the Plan as provided in Article IX.

2. During the period when any Option granted by the Committee to an Eligible Employee is outstanding, the Committee may, for such consideration (if any) as may be deemed adequate by it and with the prior consent of the Optionee, modify the terms of such Option, with respect to the unexercised portion thereof, except that such Option may not be repriced, replaced or regranted through cancellation, or by lowering the exercise price of said Option. During the period when any Option granted by the Board of Directors to a Non-Employee Director is outstanding, the Board of Directors may, for such consideration (if any) as may be deemed adequate by it and with the prior consent of the Optionee, modify the terms of the Option, with respect to the unexercised portion thereof, except that such Option may not be repriced, replaced or regranted through cancellation, or by lowering the exercise price of said Option.

3. The price per share at which Stock subject to any Option may be purchased shall be determined by the Committee (in the case of any Option granted to an Eligible Employee) or by the Board of Directors (in the case of any Option granted to a Non-Employee Director) at the time such Option is granted, but shall be no less than 85% of the Fair Market Value of the Stock at the date of the granting thereof; provided, however, (i) that the purchase price per share of Stock shall in no event be less than the par value per share of the Stock and (ii) Options whose purchase price per share on exercise is less than 100% of the Fair Market Value at the date of the granting thereof may be granted only in lieu of a reasonable amount of cash compensation.

4. The term of each Option granted under the Plan shall be such period of time as the Committee (in the case of an Option granted to an Eligible Employee) or the Board of Directors (in the case of an Option granted to a Non-Employee Director) shall determine but in no event shall an Option be exercisable after the day prior to the tenth anniversary of the granting thereof. Unless sooner forfeited or otherwise terminated pursuant to the terms hereof or of the applicable Option Agreement, each Option granted under the Plan shall expire at the end of its term. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Plan to the contrary, no Option granted hereunder may be exercised after the expiration of its term.

5. Each Option granted under the Plan shall become exercisable, in whole or in part, at such time or times during its term as the Option Agreement evidencing the grant of such Option shall specify; provided, however, that the exercisability of any Option may be accelerated in whole or in part, at any time, by the Committee (in the case of an Option granted to an Eligible Employee) or by the Board of Directors (in the case of an Option granted to a Non-Employee Director). Each option granted under the Plan that has become exercisable pursuant to the preceding sentence shall remain exercisable thereafter for such period of time prior to the expiration of its term (including during any period subsequent to the Optionee’s termination of employment with the Company for any reason, if the Optionee is an Eligible Employee, or subsequent to the Optionee’s ceasing to be a Director for any reason, if the Optionee is a Non-Employee Director) as the Option Agreement evidencing the grant of such Option shall provide. An Option may be exercised, at any time or from time to time during its term, as to any or all shares as to which the Option has become and remains exercisable.

6. The aggregate number of shares of Stock with respect to which Options may be granted hereunder to any Optionee in any calendar year may not exceed 350,000.

7. Except as may otherwise be provided in the Option Agreement evidencing the grant of any Option hereunder, the Option is so granted shall not be assignable or transferable by the Optionee other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution upon the death of such Optionee, nor shall any Option be exercisable during the lifetime of the Optionee except by such Optionee.

ARTICLE VI
STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS

1. Stock Appreciation Rights may be granted to Eligible Employees in the discretion of the Committee and to Non-Employee Directors in the discretion of the Board of Directors, upon such terms and conditions as the Committee or the Board of Directors may prescribe. Each SAR shall be granted in connection with and shall relate to all or part of a specific Option simultaneously or previously granted under the Plan. In the discretion of the Committee or the Board of Directors, an SAR may be granted at any time prior to the exercise, expiration or termination of the Option related thereto, and may be modified at any time the related Option is modified.

2. Upon exercise of a Stock Appreciation Right, the Optionee shall be entitled to receive (a) shares of Stock having a Fair Market Value at the date of exercise, or (b) cash in the amount of such Fair Market Value, or (c) a combination of shares of Stock and cash equal in the aggregate to such Fair Market Value, equivalent to all or part of the difference between the aggregate exercise price of the portion of the related Option which is being surrendered for termination and the Fair Market Value at such date of the shares of Avnet’s Common Stock for which such SAR is being exercised.

3. Each Stock Appreciation Right granted to an Eligible Employee shall be exercisable on such dates or during such periods as may be determined by the Committee, and each Stock Appreciation Right granted to a Non-Employee Director shall be exercisable on such dates or during such periods as may be determined by the Board of Directors, provided that no SAR shall be exercisable at a time when the Option related thereto could not be exercised nor may it be exercised with respect to a number of shares in excess of the number for which such Option could then be exercised.

4. A Stock Appreciation Right may be exercised only upon surrender by the Optionee, for termination, of the portion of the related Option, which is then exercisable to purchase the number of shares for which the Stock Appreciation Right is being exercised. Shares covered by the terminated Option or portion thereof shall not be available for further grants of Options under the Plan.

5. The Committee may impose any other conditions upon the exercise of Stock Appreciation Rights granted to Eligible Employees, and the Board of Directors may impose any other conditions upon the exercise of Stock Appreciation Rights granted to Non-Employee Directors, which conditions may include a condition that any particular SARs or any class of SARs may only be exercised in accordance with rules adopted by the Committee or the Board of Directors, as appropriate, from time to time. Such rules may govern the right to exercise SARs granted prior to the adoption or amendment of such rules as well as SARs granted thereafter.

6. The Committee or the Board of Directors may at any time amend, terminate or suspend any Stock Appreciation Right theretofore granted by it under this Plan, provided that the terms of any SAR after any amendment shall conform to the provisions of the Plan. Each SAR shall terminate and cease to be exercisable upon the termination (other than a termination required in connection with exercise of the SAR) or expiration of the Option related thereto.

ARTICLE VII
ADDITIONAL TERMS AND PROVISIONS

1. The Committee or the Board of Directors shall, promptly after the granting of any Option or Stock Appreciation Right or the modification of any outstanding Option or SAR, cause such Optionee to be notified of such action and shall cause Avnet to deliver to such Optionee an Option Agreement (which Option Agreement shall be signed on behalf of Avnet by an officer of Avnet with appropriate authorization therefor) evidencing the Option so granted or modified and the terms and conditions thereof and including (when appropriate) an addendum evidencing the SAR so granted or modified and the terms and conditions thereof.

2. The date on which the Committee or the Board of Directors approves the granting of any Option or Stock Appreciation Right, or approves the modification of any outstanding Option or SAR, shall be deemed the date on which such Option or SAR is granted or modified, regardless of the date on which the Option Agreement evidencing the same is executed.

3. To the extent that any Option or Stock Appreciation Right shall have become exercisable as provided in Article V or Article VI above, such Option or SAR may be exercised by the Optionee at any time and from time to time by written notice to Avnet stating the number of shares of Stock with respect to which such Option or SAR is being exercised, accompanied (as to an Option exercise) by payment in full therefor as prescribed below and (as to an SAR exercise) by an instrument effecting surrender for termination of the relevant portion of the Option related thereto. As soon as practicable after receipt of such notice, Avnet shall, without requiring payment of any transfer or issue tax by the Optionee, deliver to the Optionee, at the principal office of Avnet (or such other place as Avnet may designate), a certificate or certificates representing the shares of Stock acquired upon such exercise; provided, however, that the date for any such delivery may be postponed by Avnet for such period as it may require, in the exercise of reasonable diligence (a) to register the shares of Stock so purchased (together with any part or all of the balance of the shares of Stock which may be delivered pursuant to the exercise of Options and/or Stock Appreciation Rights) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and/or to obtain the opinions of counsel referred to in clauses (B) and (E) of paragraph 7 below, and (b) to comply with the applicable listing requirements of any national securities exchange or with any other requirements of law. If any Optionee shall fail to accept delivery of all or any part of the shares of Stock with respect to which such Option or SAR is being exercised, upon tender thereof, the right of such Optionee to exercise such Option and the related SAR, or to exercise such SAR and the related Option, with respect to such unaccepted shares may, in the discretion of the Committee (in the case of an Option granted to an Eligible Employee) or the Board of Directors (in the case of an Option granted to a Non-Employee Director), be terminated. For purposes of this paragraph 3, payment upon exercise of an Option may be made (i) by check (certified, if so required by Avnet) in the amount of the aggregate exercise price of the portion of the Option being exercised, or (ii) in the form of certificates representing shares of Stock (duly endorsed or accompanied by appropriate stock powers, in either case with signature guaranteed if so required by Avnet) having a Fair Market Value, at the date of receipt by Avnet of such certificates and the notice above mentioned, equal to or in excess of such aggregate exercise price, or (iii) by a combination of check and certificates for shares of Stock.

4. Notwithstanding paragraph 3 of this Article VII, upon each exercise of an Option, the Optionee shall pay to Avnet an amount required to be withheld under applicable income tax laws in connection with such exercise. An Optionee may, in the discretion of the Committee and subject to any rules as the Committee may adopt (in the case of an Optionee who was an Eligible Employee on the date of grant), or in the discretion of the Board of Directors and subject to such rules as the Board of Directors may adopt (in the case of an Optionee who was a Non-Employee Director on the date of grant), elect to satisfy such obligation, in whole or in part, by having Avnet withhold shares of Stock having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount required to be so withheld. For purposes of the foregoing, the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock shall be its Fair Market Value on the date that the amount to be withheld is determined. An Optionee shall pay Avnet in cash for any fractional share that would otherwise be required to be withheld.

5. The Plan shall not confer upon any Optionee any right with respect to continuance of employment by the Company or continuance of membership on the Board of Directors, nor shall it interfere in any way with his or her right, or the Company’s right, to terminate his or her employment at any time.

6. No Optionee shall acquire or have any rights as a shareholder of Avnet by virtue of any Option or any SAR until the certificates representing shares of Stock issued pursuant to the exercise of such Option or SAR are delivered to such Optionee in accordance with the terms of the Plan.

7. While it is Avnet’s present intention to register under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the shares of Stock which may be delivered pursuant to the exercise of Options and/or Stock Appreciation Rights granted under the Plan, nevertheless, any provisions in this Plan to the contrary notwithstanding, Avnet shall not be obligated to sell or deliver any shares of Stock pursuant to the exercise of any Option or any SAR unless (A)(i) such shares have at the time of such exercise been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (ii) no stop order suspending the effectiveness of such registration statement has been issued and no proceedings therefor have been instituted or threatened under said Act, and (iii) there is available at the time of such exercise a prospectus containing certified financial statements and other information meeting the requirements of Section 10(a)(3) of said Act, or (B) Avnet shall have received from its counsel an opinion that registration of such shares under said Act is not required, (C) such shares are at the same time of such exercise, or upon official notice of issuance will be, listed on each national securities exchange on which the Stock is then listed, (D) the prior approval of such sale has been obtained from any State regulatory body having jurisdiction (but nothing herein contained shall be deemed to require Avnet to register or qualify as a foreign corporation in any State nor, except as to any matter or transaction relating to the sale or delivery of such shares, to consent in service of process in any State), and (E) Avnet shall have received an opinion from its counsel with respect to compliance with the matters set forth in clauses (A), (C), and (D) above.

ARTICLE VIII
ADJUSTMENTS UPON CHANGES IN CAPITALIZATION

1. In the event that the Stock shall be split up, divided or otherwise reclassified into or exchanged for a greater or lesser number of shares of Stock or into shares of Common Stock and/or any other securities of Avnet by reason of recapitalization, reclassification, stock split or reverse split, combination of shares or other reorganization, the term “Stock” as used herein shall thereafter mean the number and kind of shares or other securities into which the Stock shall have been so split up, divided or otherwise reclassified or for which the Stock shall have been so exchanged; and the remaining number of shares of Stock which may, in the aggregate, thereafter be delivered pursuant to the exercise of Options and/or Stock Appreciation Rights (as specified in paragraph 1 of Article III hereof) and the remaining number of shares of Stock which may thereafter be delivered pursuant to the exercise of any Options and/or Stock Appreciation Rights then outstanding, shall be correspondingly adjusted. In the event that any dividend payable in shares of Stock is paid to the holders of outstanding shares of Stock, the remaining number of shares of Stock which may, in the aggregate, thereafter be delivered pursuant to the exercise of Options and/or Stock Appreciation Rights (as specified in paragraph 1 of Article III hereof) and the remaining number of shares of Stock which may thereafter be delivered pursuant to the exercise of any Options and/or Stock Appreciation Rights then outstanding, shall be increased by the percentage which the number of shares of Stock so paid as a dividend bears to the total number of shares of Stock outstanding immediately prior to the payment of such dividend.

2. In the event that the Stock shall be split up, divided or otherwise reclassified or exchanged as provided in the preceding paragraph, the purchase price per share of Stock upon exercise of outstanding Options, and the aggregate number of shares of Stock with respect to which Options may be granted to any Optionee in any calendar year (as specified in paragraph 6 of Article V hereof), shall be correspondingly adjusted.

3. Anything in this Article VIII to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that, upon any adjustment made in accordance with paragraph 1 above, the remaining number of shares of Stock which may thereafter be delivered pursuant to the exercise of any Option or Stock Appreciation Right then outstanding shall include a fractional share of Stock, such fractional share of Stock shall be disregarded for all purposes of the Plan and the Optionee holding such Option or SAR shall become entitled neither to purchase the same nor to receive cash or scrip in payment therefor or in lieu thereof.

ARTICLE IX
AMENDMENT OR TERMINATION OF THE PLAN

1. The Plan shall automatically terminate on November 21, 2009, unless it is sooner terminated pursuant to paragraph 2 below.

2. The Board of Directors may amend the Plan from time to time as the Board may deem advisable and in the best interests of Avnet and may terminate the Plan at any time (except as to Options and Stock Appreciation Rights then outstanding hereunder); provided, however, that unless approved by the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at a meeting of the shareholders of Avnet duly called and held for that purpose, no amendment to the Plan shall be adopted which shall (a) affect the composition or functioning of the Committee, (b) increase the aggregate number of shares of Stock which may be delivered pursuant to the exercise of Options and SARs, (c) increase the aggregate number of shares of Stock with respect to which Options may be granted to any Optionee during any calendar year, (d) decrease the minimum purchase price per share of Stock (in relation to the Fair Market Value thereof at the respective dates of grant) upon the exercise of Options, or (e) extend the ten year maximum period within which an Option is exercisable, or the period within which an SAR is exercisable, or the termination date of the Plan.

SHARES RESERVED FOR THE PLAN

1

3. If any Award shall be surrendered and terminated or for any other reason shall terminate or expire, whether in whole or in part (except for terminations of Options in connection with exercises of Stock Appreciation Rights), the number of shares of Stock covered by such Award immediately prior to such termination or expiration shall thereupon be added to the number of shares of Stock otherwise available for further grants of Awards hereunder.

4. If a Participant pays for any Option or other Award with previously owned Stock, the number of shares of Stock available for Awards shall be increased by the number of shares surrendered by the Participant.

5. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, in no event shall the number of Options with a price per share of less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of the Stock at the date of grant exceed five percent (5%) of the Stock authorized pursuant to Article III(1) (as adjusted pursuant to Article X), provided that this limitation shall not apply in the case of Options assumed or granted in substitution for other options in a merger, acquisition, or similar corporate transaction context.

ARTICLE IV
ADMINISTRATION OF THE PLAN

1. This Plan shall be administered by the Committee with respect to Awards granted to Eligible Employees, and shall be administered by the Board of Directors with respect to Awards granted to Non-Employee Directors. The Committee and the Board of Directors each shall have full and exclusive power to construe and interpret the Plan, and to establish and amend rules and regulations for the administration of the Plan, in connection with Awards granted to the persons within their respective spheres of administrative responsibility as provided in the preceding sentence. Subject to Section 6 of this Article IV, the Committee and/or Board of Directors may delegate their authority hereunder to one or more Company officers to the extent permitted by and not inconsistent with any requirements of applicable law.

2. In addition to paragraph 1 of this Article IV (and without limiting the generality thereof), the Committee shall have plenary authority (subject to the provisions hereof) in its discretion to determine the time or times at which Awards shall be granted to Eligible Employees, the Eligible Employees to whom Awards shall be granted, the number of shares of Stock to be covered by each such Award, and (to the extent not inconsistent with the provisions of this Plan) the terms and conditions upon which each such Award may be exercised. The granting of Awards by the Committee shall be entirely discretionary; the terms and conditions (not inconsistent with this Plan) prescribed or approved for any Agreement with an Eligible Employee shall similarly be within the discretion of the Committee; and nothing in this Plan shall be deemed to give any Eligible Employee any right to receive Awards. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Committee, in its discretion, may grant Options to any Eligible Employee upon such terms and conditions as may be necessary for such Options to qualify as incentive stock options within the meaning of section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

2

2a. In addition to paragraph 1 of this Article IV (and without limiting the generality thereof), the Board of Directors shall have plenary authority (subject to the provisions hereof) in its discretion to determine the time or times at which Awards shall be granted to Non-Employee Directors, the Non-Employee Directors to whom Awards shall be granted, the number of shares of Stock to be covered by each such Award, and (to the extent not inconsistent with the provisions of this Plan) the terms and conditions upon which each such Award may be exercised; provided that the members of the Committee shall abstain from participating in any action taken by the Board of Directors with respect to Awards granted or to be granted to any such members. The granting of Awards by the Board of Directors shall be entirely discretionary; the terms and conditions (not inconsistent with this Plan) prescribed or approved for any Agreement with a Non-Employee Director shall similarly be within the discretion of the Board of Directors; and nothing in this Plan shall be deemed to give any Non-Employee Director any right to receive Awards.

3. The Committee is also specifically authorized, in the event of a public solicitation, by any person, firm or corporation other than Avnet, of tenders of 50% or more of the then outstanding Stock (known conventionally as a “tender offer”), to accelerate exercisability of and lift any restrictions with respect to any or all Awards held by Participants then employed as an Eligible Employee, so that such Awards will immediately become exercisable, vested, and transferable in full; provided that such accelerated exercisability and lifting of restrictions shall continue in effect only until expiration, termination or withdrawal of such tender offer, whereupon such Awards will be (and continue thereafter to be) exercisable, vested, and transferable only to the extent that they would have been if no such acceleration of exercisability and lifting of restrictions had been authorized.

3a. The Board of Directors is also specifically authorized, in the event of a tender offer, by any person, firm or corporation other than Avnet, for 50% or more of the then outstanding Stock, to accelerate exercisability of and lift any restrictions with respect to any or all Awards held by Participants then serving as Non-Employee Directors, so that such Awards will immediately become exercisable, vested, and transferable in full; provided that such accelerated exercisability and lifting of restrictions shall continue in effect only until expiration, termination or withdrawal of such tender offer, whereupon such Awards will be (and continue thereafter to be) exercisable, vested, and transferable only to the extent they would have been if no such acceleration of exercisability and lifting of restrictions had been authorized.

4. A majority of the members of the Committee (but not less than two) shall constitute a quorum, and all acts, decisions or determinations of the Committee shall be by majority vote of such of its members as shall be present at a meeting duly held at which a quorum is so present. Any act, decision, or determination of the Committee reduced to writing and signed by a majority of its members (but not less than two) shall be fully effective as if it had been made, taken or done by vote of such majority at a meeting duly called and held.

5. The Committee shall deliver a report to the Board of Directors with reasonable promptness following the taking of any action(s) in the administration of this Plan, which report shall set forth in full the action(s) so taken. The Committee shall also file such other reports and make such other information available as may from time to time be prescribed by the Board of Directors.

3

6. The Committee (and, with respect to Non-Employee Directors, the Board of Directors), shall have sole and complete discretion in determining those Eligible Employees who shall participate in the Plan. The Committee may request recommendations for individual Awards from the Chief Executive Officer of the Company and, to the extent permitted by applicable law, may delegate to the Chief Executive Officer of the Company the authority to make Awards to Participants who are not Executive Officers of the Company or Covered Participants, subject to a fixed maximum Award amount for such a group and a maximum Award amount for any one Participant, as determined by the Committee. Awards made to the Executive Officers or Covered Participants shall be determined by the Committee.

7. All determinations and decisions made by the Committee and Board of Directors pursuant to the provisions of the Plan shall be final, conclusive, and binding upon all persons, including the Company, its stockholders, employees, Participants, and designated beneficiaries, except when the terms of any sale or award of shares of Stock or any grant of rights or Options under the Plan are required by law or by the Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws of the Company to be approved by the Company’s Board of Directors or stockholders prior to any such sale, award or grant.

8. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, the Committee may impose such conditions on any Award, and the Board may amend the Plan in any such respects, as may be required to satisfy the requirements of Rule 16b-3 or Section 162(m).

9. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, no Award shall be granted to a Non-Employee Director unless such grant is approved by a majority of the Non-Employee Directors.

ARTICLE V
AWARD AND MODIFICATION OF OPTIONS

1. Options may be granted by the Committee to Eligible Employees, and may be granted by the Board of Directors to Non-Employee Directors, from time to time in their discretion prior to September 18, 2013 or the earlier termination of the Plan as provided in Article XI.

2. During the period when any Option granted by the Committee to an Eligible Employee is outstanding, the Committee may, for such consideration (if any) as may be deemed adequate by it and with the prior consent of the Optionee, modify the terms of such Option, with respect to the unexercised portion thereof, except that such Option may not be repriced, replaced or regranted through cancellation, or by lowering the exercise price of said Option, without shareholder approval. During the period when any Option granted by the Board of Directors to a Non-Employee Director is outstanding, the Board of Directors may, for such consideration (if any) as may be deemed adequate by it and with the prior consent of the Optionee, modify the terms of the Option, with respect to the unexercised portion thereof, except that such Option may not be repriced, replaced or regranted through cancellation, or by lowering the exercise price of said Option, without shareholder approval.

3. The price per share at which Stock subject to any Option may be purchased shall be determined by the Committee (in the case of any Option granted to an Eligible Employee) or by the Board of Directors (in the case of any Option granted to a Non-Employee Director) at the time such Option is granted, but shall be no less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of the Stock at the date of grant in the case of ISOs, and no less than 85% of the Fair Market Value of the Stock at the date of grant in the case of nonqualified Options (except in the case of Options assumed or granted in substitution for other options in a merger, acquisition, or similar corporate transaction context); provided, however, that the purchase price per share of Stock shall in no event be less than the par value per share of the Stock. The “date of grant” shall be the date on which the Committee or Board of Directors, as appropriate, completes its action constituting the making of an Award, regardless of whether or not such Award is subject to future shareholder approval or other conditions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Options with a price per share of less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of the Stock at the date of grant shall be granted only in connection with either (a) a new hire (or rehire) of an employee by the Company or a Subsidiary or (b) a merger, acquisition, disposition, reorganization, or similar corporate transaction.

4. The term of each Option granted under the Plan shall be such period of time as the Committee (in the case of an Option granted to an Eligible Employee) or the Board of Directors (in the case of an Option granted to a Non-Employee Director) shall determine but in no event shall an Option be exercisable after the day prior to the tenth anniversary of the granting thereof. Unless sooner forfeited or otherwise terminated pursuant to the terms hereof or of the applicable Agreement, each Option granted under the Plan shall expire at the end of its term. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Plan to the contrary, no Option granted hereunder may be exercised after the expiration of its term.

5. Each Option granted under the Plan shall become exercisable, in whole or in part, at such time or times during its term as the Agreement evidencing the grant of such Option shall specify; provided, however, that the exercisability of any Option may be accelerated in whole or in part, at any time, by the Committee (in the case of an Option granted to an Eligible Employee) or by the Board of Directors (in the case of an Option granted to a Non-Employee Director). Each option granted under the Plan that has become exercisable pursuant to the preceding sentence shall remain exercisable thereafter for such period of time prior to the expiration of its term (including during any period subsequent to the Optionee’s termination of employment with the Company for any reason, if the Optionee is an Eligible Employee, or subsequent to the Optionee’s ceasing to be a Director for any reason, if the Optionee is a Non-Employee Director) as the Option Agreement evidencing the grant of such Option shall provide. An Option may be exercised, at any time or from time to time during its term, as to any or all shares as to which the Option has become and remains exercisable.

6. The aggregate number of shares of Stock with respect to which Options may be granted hereunder to any Optionee in any calendar year may not exceed 500,000.

7. Except as may otherwise be provided in paragraph 10 of Article IX of the Plan or the Agreement evidencing the grant of any Option hereunder, the Option so granted shall not be assignable or transferable by the Optionee other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution upon the death of such Optionee, nor shall any Option be exercisable during the lifetime of the Optionee except by such Optionee.

8. Options shall be exercised by the delivery of a written notice from the Participant to the Company in the form prescribed by the Committee setting forth the number of Shares with respect to which the Option is to be exercised, accompanied by full payment of the exercise price for the shares. The exercise price shall be payable to the Company in full in cash, or its equivalent, or, to the extent permitted by applicable law and not in violation of any instrument or agreement to which the Company is a party, by delivery of Shares (not subject to any security interest or pledge) valued at Fair Market Value at the time of exercise, or by a combination of the foregoing, or in any other form of payment acceptable to the Committee. The Committee reserves the right to require any Shares delivered by the Participant in full or partial payment of the exercise price to be limited to those Shares already owned by the Participant for at least six (6) months. In addition, at the request of the Participant, and subject to applicable laws and regulations, the Company may (but shall not be required to) cooperate in a cashless exercise of the Option. As soon as practicable, after receipt of written notice and payment, but subject to the terms and conditions of Article IX, the Company shall deliver to the Participant stock certificates in an appropriate amount based upon the number of Shares with respect to which the Option is exercised, issued in the Participant’s name.

ARTICLE VI
STOCK APPRECIATION RIGHTS

1. Stock Appreciation Rights may be granted to Eligible Employees in the discretion of the Committee and to Non-Employee Directors in the discretion of the Board of Directors, upon such terms and conditions as the Committee or the Board of Directors may prescribe. Each SAR may be free standing, or granted in connection with and relate to all or part of a specific Option simultaneously or previously granted under the Plan. In the discretion of the Committee or the Board of Directors, an SAR may be granted at any time prior to the exercise, expiration or termination of the Option related thereto, and may be modified at any time the related Option is modified.

2. Upon exercise of a Stock Appreciation Right, the grantee or Optionee shall be entitled to receive (a) shares of Stock having a Fair Market Value at the date of exercise, or (b) cash in the amount of such Fair Market Value, or (c) a combination of shares of Stock and cash equal in the aggregate to such Fair Market Value, equivalent to all or part of the difference between the aggregate exercise price of the portion of the SAR or the related Option which is being surrendered for termination and the Fair Market Value at such date of the shares of Avnet’s Common Stock for which such SAR is being exercised.

3. Each Stock Appreciation Right granted to an Eligible Employee shall be exercisable on such dates or during such periods as may be determined by the Committee, and each Stock Appreciation Right granted to a Non-Employee Director shall be exercisable on such dates or during such periods as may be determined by the Board of Directors, provided that if an SAR relates to all or part of a specific Option, such SAR shall not be exercisable at a time when the Option related thereto could not be exercised nor may it be exercised with respect to a number of shares in excess of the number for which such Option could then be exercised.

4. A Stock Appreciation Right related to all or part of a specific Option may be exercised only upon surrender by the Optionee, for termination, of the portion of the related Option, which is then exercisable to purchase the number of shares for which the Stock Appreciation Right is being exercised. Shares covered by the terminated Option or portion thereof shall not be available for further grants of Options under the Plan.

5. The Committee may impose any other conditions upon the exercise of Stock Appreciation Rights granted to Eligible Employees, and the Board of Directors may impose any other conditions upon the exercise of Stock Appreciation Rights granted to Non-Employee Directors, which conditions may include a condition that any particular SARs or any class of SARs may only be exercised in accordance with rules adopted by the Committee or the Board of Directors, as appropriate, from time to time. Such rules may govern the right to exercise SARs granted prior to the adoption or amendment of such rules as well as SARs granted thereafter.

6. The Committee or the Board of Directors may at any time amend, terminate or suspend any Stock Appreciation Right theretofore granted by it under this Plan, provided that the terms of any SAR after any amendment shall conform to the provisions of the Plan. Each SAR related to all or part of a specific Options shall terminate and cease to be exercisable upon the termination (other than a termination required in connection with exercise of the SAR) or expiration of the Option related thereto.

ARTICLE VII
RESTRICTED STOCK AND
RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS

1. Subject to the terms and provisions of the Plan and applicable law, the Committee (or, with respect to Non-Employee Directors, the Board of Directors), at any time and from time to time, may grant shares of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units under the Plan to such Participants, and in such amounts and with such vesting periods, Period of Restriction and/or conditions for removal of restrictions as it shall determine. Participants receiving shares of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units are not required to pay the Company cash therefor (except for applicable tax withholding). Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan to the contrary, with respect to a Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Unit Grant to an Eligible Employee (i) such Awards shall vest no faster than pro rata over the three (3) years after the date of grant with respect to Awards that do not vest based at least in part on the satisfaction of performance criteria and (ii) such Awards shall not vest sooner than one (1) year after the date of grant with respect to Awards that vest at least in part based on the satisfaction of performance criteria. The immediately preceding sentence shall also apply with respect to any ad hoc grant (as opposed to annual grants that are part of the director compensation package) of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units to any Non-Employee Director.

2. Each Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Unit grant shall be evidenced by an Agreement that shall specify any vesting requirements with respect to such Award, any Period of Restriction with respect to such Award, and the conditions which must be satisfied prior to removal of any additional restrictions as the Committee (or, with respect to Non-Employee Directors, the Board of Directors), shall determine. The Committee (or, with respect to Non-Employee Directors, the Board of Directors), may specify, but is not limited to, the following types of restrictions in the Agreement: (i) restrictions on acceleration or achievement of terms of vesting based on any business or financial goals of the Company, including, but not limited to, absolute or relative increases in total stockholder return, revenues, sales, net income, earnings per share, return on equity, cash flow, operating margin or net worth of the Company, any of its Subsidiaries, divisions or other areas of the Company; and (ii) any other further restrictions that may be advisable under the law, including requirements set forth by the Exchange Act, the Securities Act, any securities trading system or Stock exchange upon which such shares of stock are listed.

3. Except as provided in paragraph 10 of Article IX of the Plan or this Article VII and subject to applicable law, the shares of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units granted under the Plan may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, exchanged, encumbered or otherwise alienated or hypothecated until (A) both of the following have occurred: (i) the applicable portions of such Awards have vested (and, in the case of Restricted Stock Units, shares of Stock have been issued in respect thereof), and (ii) the applicable Period of Restriction has terminated, or (B) upon earlier satisfaction of such conditions as specified by the Committee (or, with respect to Non-Employee Directors, the Board of Directors), in its sole discretion and set forth in the Agreement. Except as provided herein, all rights with respect to the Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units granted to a Participant under the Plan shall be exercisable only by such Participant or his or her guardian or legal representative.

4. Except as otherwise noted in this Article VII, shares of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units covered by an Award shall be provided to (or in the case of Restricted Stock Units, shares of Stock shall be issued therefor in accordance with Paragraph 6 of this Article VII) and become freely transferable by the Participant (i) upon the vesting of the applicable Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Unit Award, and (ii) after the last day of the Period of Restriction and/or upon the satisfaction of other conditions as determined by the Committee (or, with respect to Non-Employee Directors, the Board of Directors). The Committee (or with respect to Non-Employee Directors, the Board of Directors) in its sole discretion may reduce or remove the restrictions or reduce or remove or accelerate vesting provisions or the Period of Restriction with respect to Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units upon the Eligible Employee’s (or, as appropriate, Non-Employee Director’s) death, retirement, layoff, termination in connection with a Change in Control or other termination where the Committee determines that such treatment is appropriate and in the Company’s best interests, as well as upon assumption of, or in substitution for, restricted stock or restricted stock units of a company with which the Company participates in an acquisition, separation, merger, or similar corporate transaction.

5. Prior to vesting and during the Period of Restriction, Participants in whose name Restricted Stock is granted under the Plan may exercise full voting rights with respect to those shares. Subsequent to vesting of Restricted Stock Units and the issuance of shares of Stock in respect thereof, during any subsequent Period of Restriction, Participants who have received shares of Stock in respect of such Restricted Stock Units may exercise full voting rights with respect to those shares.

6. Upon all or a portion of an Award of Restricted Stock Units vesting (the date of each such vesting being a “Vest Date”), one share of Stock shall be issuable for each Restricted Stock Unit that vests on such Vest Date (the “RSU Shares”), subject to the terms and provisions of the Plan and relevant Agreement. Thereafter, the Company will transfer such RSU Shares to the Participant upon satisfaction of any required tax withholding obligations and upon the expiration of any applicable Period of Restriction. No fractional shares shall be issued with respect to vesting of Restricted Stock Units. No Participant shall have any right in, to or with respect to any of the shares of Stock (including any voting rights or rights with respect to dividends paid on the Stock, except as set forth in paragraph 7 of this Article VII) issuable under the Award until the Award is settled by the issuance of such shares of Stock to such Participant.

7. Prior to vesting, and during the Period of Restriction, Participants in whose name Restricted Stock is granted shall be entitled to receive all dividends and other distributions paid with respect to those Awards, as set forth in this Paragraph 7. Participants in whose name Restricted Stock Units are granted shall not be entitled to receive any dividends or other distributions paid with respect to the Company’s Stock unless the specific Award document so provides. With respect to shares of Restricted Stock, dividends paid in cash shall be automatically reinvested in additional shares of Restricted Stock at a purchase price per share equal to Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the date of such dividend is paid; provided, however that the Company shall not issue fractional shares, and any amount that would have been invested in a fractional share shall be paid to Participant. Any such additional shares of Stock received by any Participant in respect of a Restricted Stock Award, whether through reinvestment or through a dividend paid in shares of Stock, shall be subject to the same restrictions on transferability as the Restricted Stock with respect to which they were distributed.

ARTICLE VIII
OTHER STOCK UNIT AWARDS

1. Subject to the terms and provisions of the Plan and applicable law, the Committee (or, with respect to Non-Employee Directors, the Board of Directors), at any time and from time to time, may issue to Participants, either alone or in addition to other Awards made under the Plan, Other Stock Unit Awards which may be in the form of Common Stock or other securities. The value of each such Award shall be based, in whole or in part, on the value of the underlying Common Stock or other securities. The Committee (or, with respect to Non-Employee Directors, the Board of Directors), in its sole and complete discretion, may determine that an Other Stock Unit Award may provide to the Participant (i) dividends or dividend equivalents (payable on a current or deferred basis) and (ii) cash payments in lieu of or in addition to an Award. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Committee (or, with respect to Non-Employee Directors, the Board of Directors), in its sole and complete discretion shall determine the terms, restrictions, conditions, vesting requirements, and payment rules (all of which are sometimes hereinafter collectively referred to as “Rules”) of the Award. The Agreement shall specify the Rules of each Award as determined by the Committee (or, with respect to Non-Employee Directors, the Board of Directors). However, each Other Stock Unit Award need not be subject to identical Rules.

2. The Committee (or, with respect to Non-Employee Directors, the Board of Directors), in its sole and complete discretion, may grant an Other Stock Unit Award subject to the following Rules:

  (a)   Except as provided in paragraph 10 of Article IX of the Plan, all rights with respect to such Other Stock Unit Awards granted to a Participant shall be exercisable during his or her lifetime only by such Participant or his or her guardian or legal representative.

  (b)   Other Stock Unit Awards may require the payment of cash consideration by the Participant upon receipt of the Award or provide that the Award, and any Common Stock or other securities issued in conjunction with the Award be delivered without the payment of cash consideration.

  (c)   The Committee (or, with respect to Non-Employee Directors, the Board of Directors), in its sole and complete discretion may establish certain performance criteria that may relate in whole or in part to receipt of the Other Stock Unit Awards.

  (d)   Other Stock Unit Awards may be subject to a deferred payment schedule.

  (e)   The Committee (or, with respect to Non-Employee Directors, the Board of Directors), in its sole and complete discretion, as a result of certain circumstances, including, without limitation, the assumption of, or substitution of stock unit awards of a company with which the Company participates in an acquisition, separation, or similar corporate transaction, may waive or otherwise remove, in whole or in part, any restriction or condition imposed on an Other Stock Unit Award at the time of grant.

ARTICLE IX
ADDITIONAL TERMS AND PROVISIONS

1. The Committee or the Board of Directors shall, promptly after the granting of any Award or the modification of any outstanding Award, cause such Participant to be notified of such action and shall cause Avnet to deliver to such Participant an Agreement (which Agreement shall be signed on behalf of Avnet by an officer of Avnet with appropriate authorization therefor) evidencing the Award so granted or modified and the terms and conditions thereof and including (when appropriate) an addendum evidencing the SAR so granted or modified and the terms and conditions thereof.

2. The date on which the Committee or the Board of Directors approves the granting of any Award, or approves the modification of any outstanding Award, shall for purposes of this Plan be deemed the date on which such Award is granted or modified, regardless of whether (i) the date on which the Agreement evidencing the same is executed or (ii) the grant or modification of such Award is subject to a contingency.

3. To the extent that any Award shall have become exercisable, such Award may be exercised by the Participant at any time and from time to time by written notice to Avnet stating the number of shares of Stock with respect to which such Award is being exercised, accompanied (as to an Option exercise) by payment in full therefor as prescribed below and (as to an SAR exercise) by an instrument effecting surrender for termination of the relevant portion of the Option related thereto. As soon as practicable after receipt of such notice, Avnet shall, without requiring payment of any transfer or issue tax by the Participant, deliver to the Participant, at the principal office of Avnet (or such other place as Avnet may designate), a certificate or certificates representing the shares of Stock acquired upon such exercise; provided, however, that the date for any such delivery may be postponed by Avnet for such period as it may require, in the exercise of reasonable diligence (a) to register the shares of Stock so purchased (together with any part or all of the balance of the shares of Stock which may be delivered pursuant to the exercise of Awards) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and/or to obtain the opinions of counsel referred to in clauses (B) and (E) of paragraph 7 below, and (b) to comply with the applicable listing requirements of any national securities exchange or with any other requirements of law. If any Participant shall fail to accept delivery of all or any part of the shares of Stock with respect to which such Award is being exercised, upon tender thereof, the right of such Participant to exercise such Award, with respect to such unaccepted shares may, in the discretion of the Committee (in the case of an Award granted to an Eligible Employee) or the Board of Directors (in the case of an Award granted to a Non-Employee Director), be terminated. For purposes of this paragraph 3, payment upon exercise of an Award may be made (i) by check (certified, if so required by Avnet) in the amount of the aggregate exercise price of the portion of the Award being exercised, or (ii) in the form of certificates representing shares of Stock (duly endorsed or accompanied by appropriate stock powers, in either case with signature guaranteed if so required by Avnet) having a Fair Market Value, at the date of receipt by Avnet of such certificates and the notice above mentioned, equal to or in excess of such aggregate exercise price, or (iii) by a combination of check and certificates for shares of Stock, or (iv) in any other manner acceptable to the Committee (with respect to an Award granted to an Eligible Employee) or the Board of Directors (with respect to award to a Non-Employee Director), in each case in the discretion of the Committee or the Board of Directors, as the case may be.

5

4. Notwithstanding paragraph 3 of this Article IX, upon each exercise of an Award or vesting of Restricted Stock (or filing of a Code Section 83(b) election with respect thereto), or upon a Restricted Stock Unit or Other Stock Unit Award becoming taxable, the Participant shall pay to Avnet an amount required to be withheld under applicable income tax laws in connection with such exercise or vesting or Section 83(b) election or other taxable event. A Participant may, in the discretion of the Committee and subject to any rules as the Committee may adopt (in the case of a Participant who was an Eligible Employee on the date of grant), or in the discretion of the Board of Directors and subject to such rules as the Board of Directors may adopt (in the case of a Participant who was a Non-Employee Director on the date of grant), elect to satisfy such obligation, in whole or in part, by having Avnet withhold shares of Stock having a Fair Market Value equal to the amount required to be so withheld. For purposes of the foregoing, the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock shall be its Fair Market Value on the date that the amount to be withheld is determined. A Participant shall pay Avnet in cash for any fractional share that would otherwise be required to be withheld.

5. The Plan shall not confer upon any Participant any right with respect to continuance of employment by the Company or continuance of membership on the Board of Directors, nor shall it interfere in any way with his or her right, or the Company’s right, to terminate his or her employment at any time.

6. Except as provided in Articles VII and VIII, no Participant shall acquire or have any rights as a shareholder of Avnet by virtue of any Award until the certificates representing shares of Stock issued pursuant to the Award or the exercise are delivered to such Participant in accordance with the terms of the Plan.

7. While it is Avnet’s present intention to register under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the shares of Stock which may be delivered pursuant to the granting and exercise of Awards under the Plan, nevertheless, any provisions in this Plan to the contrary notwithstanding, Avnet shall not be obligated to sell or deliver any shares of Stock pursuant to the granting or exercise of any Award unless (A)(i) such shares have at the time of such exercise been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, (ii) no stop order suspending the effectiveness of such registration statement has been issued and no proceedings therefor have been instituted or threatened under said Act, and (iii) there is available at the time of such grant and/or exercise a prospectus containing certified financial statements and other information meeting the requirements of Section 10(a)(3) of said Act, or Avnet shall have received from its counsel an opinion that registration of such shares under said Act is not required; (B) such shares are at the same time of such grant and/or exercise, or upon official notice of issuance will be, listed on each national securities exchange on which the Stock is then listed, (C) the prior approval of such sale has been obtained from any State regulatory body having jurisdiction (but nothing herein contained shall be deemed to require Avnet to register or qualify as a foreign corporation in any State nor, except as to any matter or transaction relating to the sale or delivery of such shares, to consent in service of process in any State), and (D) Avnet shall have received an opinion from its counsel with respect to compliance with the matters set forth in clauses (A), (B), and (C) above.

8. The Committee may require, as a condition of any payment or share issuance, that certain agreements, undertakings, representations, certificates, and/or information, as the Committee may deem necessary or advisable, be executed or provided to the Company to assure compliance with all applicable laws or regulations. Any certificates for shares of the Restricted Stock and/or Stock delivered under the Plan may be subject to such stock-transfer orders and such other restrictions as the Committee may deem advisable under the rules, regulations, or other requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission, any stock exchange upon which the Stock is then listed, and any applicable federal or state securities law. In addition, if, at any time specified herein (or in any Agreement or otherwise) for (a) the making of any Award, or the making of any determination, (b) the issuance or other distribution of Restricted Stock and/or other Stock, or (c) the payment of amounts to or through a Participant with respect to any Award, any law, rule, regulation, or other requirement of any governmental authority or agency shall require the Company, any Affiliate, or any Participant (or any estate, designated beneficiary, or other legal representative thereof) to take any action in connection with any such determination, any such shares to be issued or distributed, any such payment, or the making of any such determination, as the case may be, shall be deferred until such required action is taken. With respect to persons subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, transactions under the Plan are intended to comply with all applicable conditions of Rule 16b-3. To the extent any provision of the Plan or any action by the administrators of the Plan fails to so comply with such rule, it shall be deemed null and void, to the extent permitted by law and deemed advisable by the Committee.

9. The Committee (or, with respect to a Non-Employee Director, the Board of Directors), may permit a Participant to elect to defer receipt of any payment of cash or any delivery of shares of Common Stock that would otherwise be due to such Participant by virtue of the exercise, earn-out, or settlement of any Award made under the Plan. If such election is permitted, the Committee shall establish rules and procedures for such deferrals, including, without limitation, the payment or crediting of dividend equivalents in respect of deferrals credited in units of Common Stock. The Committee (or, with respect to a Non-Employee Director, the Board of Directors), may also provide in the relevant Agreement for a tax reimbursement cash payment to be made by the Company in favor of any Participant in connection with the tax consequences resulting from the grant, exercise, settlement or earn-out of any Award made under the Plan.

10. No Award and no rights or interests therein may be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, exchanged, encumbered or otherwise alienated or hypothecated, except (i) by testamentary disposition by the Participant or the laws of descent and distribution or, except in the case of an ISO, by a qualified domestic relations order; and (ii) in the case of Awards other than Incentive Stock Options, transfers made with the prior approval of the Committee and on such terms and conditions as the Committee in its sole discretion shall approve, to (a) the child, step-child, grandchild, parent, stepparent, grandparent, spouse, former spouse, sibling, niece, nephew, mother-in-law, son-in-law, daughter-in-law, brother-in-law, sister-in-law, including adoptive relationships, and any person sharing the Participant’s household (other than a tenant or employee) of the Participant (an “Immediate Family Member”), (b) a trust in which Immediate Family Members have more than fifty percent of the beneficial interest, (c) a foundation in which Immediate Family Members or the Employee control the management of the assets, (d) any other entity in which Immediate Family Members or the Employee own more than 50% of the voting interests, or (e) any other transferee that is approved by the Committee in its sole discretion (each a Permitted Transferee); provided, however, that, without the prior approval of the Committee, no Permitted Transferee shall further transfer an Award, other than by testamentary disposition or the laws of descent and distribution, either directly or indirectly, including, without limitation, by reason of the dissolution of, or a change in the beneficiaries of, a Permitted Transferee that is a trust, the sale, merger, consolidation, dissolution, or liquidation of a Permitted Transferee that is a partnership (or the sale of all or any portion of the partnership interests therein), or the sale, merger, consolidation, dissolution or liquidation of a Permitted Transferee that is a corporation (or the sale of all or any portion of the stock thereof). Further, no right or interest of any Participant in an Award may be assigned in satisfaction of any lien, obligation, or liability of the Participant.

11. The Plan, and its rules, rights, agreements and regulations, shall be governed, construed, interpreted and administered solely in accordance with the laws of the state of New York. In the event any provision of the Plan shall be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable, in whole or in part, for any reason, such determination shall not affect the validity, legality or enforceability of any remaining provision, portion of provision or the Plan overall, which shall remain in full force and effect as if the Plan had been absent the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision or portion thereof

12. By acceptance of an applicable Award, subject to the conditions of such Award, each Participant shall be considered in agreement that all shares of stock sold or awarded and all Options granted under this Plan shall be considered special incentive compensation and will be exempt from inclusion as “wages” or “salary” in pension, retirement, life insurance, and other employee benefits arrangements of the Company, except as determined otherwise by the Company. In addition, each designated beneficiary of a deceased Participant shall be in agreement that all such Awards will be exempt from inclusion in “wages” or “salary” for purposes of calculating benefits of any life insurance coverage sponsored by the Company.

13. In its sole and complete discretion, the Committee may elect to legend certificates representing shares of stock sold or awarded under the Plan, to make appropriate references to the restrictions imposed on such shares.

14. All Agreements for Participants subject to Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act shall be deemed to include any such additional terms, conditions, limitations and provisions as Rule 16b-3 requires, unless the Committee in its discretion determines that any such Award should not be governed by Rule 16b-3. All performance-based Awards shall be deemed to include any such additional terms, conditions, limitations and provisions as are necessary to comply with the performance-based compensation exemption of Section 162(m) unless the Committee in its discretion determines that any such Award to a Covered Participant is not intended to qualify for the exemption for performance-based compensation under Section 162(m).

15. In the event of a Change in Control, the Committee is permitted to accelerate the payment or vesting and release any restrictions on any Awards.

ARTICLE X
ADJUSTMENTS UPON CHANGES IN CAPITALIZATION

1. In the event that the Stock shall be split up, divided or otherwise reclassified into or exchanged for a greater or lesser number of shares of Stock or into shares of Common Stock and/or any other securities of Avnet by reason of recapitalization, reclassification, stock split or reverse split, combination of shares or other reorganization, the term “Stock” as used herein shall thereafter mean the number and kind of shares or other securities into which the Stock shall have been so split up, divided or otherwise reclassified or for which the Stock shall have been so exchanged; and the remaining number of shares of Stock which may, in the aggregate, thereafter be delivered pursuant to the grant or exercise of an Award (as specified in paragraph 1 of Article III hereof) and the remaining number of shares of Stock which may thereafter be delivered pursuant to the exercise of any Options and/or Stock Appreciation Rights then outstanding, shall be correspondingly adjusted. In the event that any dividend payable in shares of Stock is paid to the holders of outstanding shares of Stock, the remaining number of shares of Stock which may, in the aggregate, thereafter be delivered pursuant to the exercise or grant of Awards (as specified in paragraph 1 of Article III hereof) and the remaining number of shares of Stock which may thereafter be delivered pursuant to the exercise of any Awards then outstanding, shall be increased by the percentage which the number of shares of Stock so paid as a dividend bears to the total number of shares of Stock outstanding immediately prior to the payment of such dividend.

2. In the event that the Stock shall be split up, divided or otherwise reclassified or exchanged as provided in the preceding paragraph, the purchase price per share of Stock upon exercise of outstanding Options, and the aggregate number of shares of Stock with respect to which Awards may be granted to any Participant in any calendar year shall be correspondingly adjusted.

3. Anything in this Article X to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event that, upon any adjustment made in accordance with paragraph 1 above, the remaining number of shares of Stock which may thereafter be delivered pursuant to the exercise of any Award then outstanding shall include a fractional share of Stock, such fractional share of Stock shall be disregarded for all purposes of the Plan and the Optionee holding such Award shall become entitled neither to purchase the same nor to receive cash or scrip in payment therefor or in lieu thereof.

ARTICLE XI
AMENDMENT OR TERMINATION OF THE PLAN

1. The Plan shall automatically terminate on September 18, 2013, unless it is sooner terminated pursuant to paragraph 2 below.

2. The Board of Directors may amend the Plan from time to time as the Board may deem advisable and in the best interests of Avnet and may terminate the Plan at any time (except as to Awards then outstanding hereunder); provided, however, that unless approved by the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast at a meeting of the shareholders of Avnet duly called and held for that purpose, no amendment to the Plan shall be adopted which shall (a) affect the composition or functioning of the Committee, (b) increase the aggregate number of shares of Stock which may be delivered pursuant to the exercise of Awards, (c) increase the aggregate number of shares of Stock with respect to which Options or other Awards may be granted to any Participant during any calendar year, (d) decrease the minimum purchase price per share of Stock (in relation to the Fair Market Value thereof at the respective dates of grant) upon the exercise of Options, or (e) extend the ten year maximum period within which an Award is exercisable, or the termination date of the Plan.

AVNET, INC.
STANDARD TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR
EMPLOYEE NONQUALIFIED STOCK OPTIONS

These Standard Terms and Conditions apply to any Options granted under the Avnet, Inc. 2003 Stock Compensation Plan (the “Plan”) that are identified as nonqualified stock options and are evidenced by a Term Sheet or an action of the Committee that specifically refers to these Standard Terms and Conditions.

    TERMS OF OPTION

AVNET, INC. (the “Company”), has granted to the Participant named in the Term Sheet provided to said Participant herewith (the “Term Sheet”) a nonqualified stock option (the “Option”) to purchase up to the number of shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Stock”), set forth in the Term Sheet, at the purchase price per share and upon the other terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Term Sheet, these Standard Terms and Conditions (as amended from time to time), and the Plan. For purposes of these Standard Terms and Conditions and the Term Sheet, any reference to the Company shall include a reference to any Subsidiary.

    NON-QUALIFIED STOCK OPTION

The Option is not intended to be an incentive stock option under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) and will be interpreted accordingly.

    EXERCISE OF OPTION

The Option shall not be exercisable as of the grant date (the “Grant Date”) set forth in the Term Sheet. After the Grant Date, to the extent not previously exercised, and subject to termination or acceleration as provided in these Standard Terms and Conditions and the Plan, the Option shall be exercisable to the extent it becomes vested, as described in the Term Sheet, to purchase up to that number of shares of Stock as set forth in the Term Sheet provided that (except as set forth in Section 4 below) Participant remains employed with the Company and does not experience a termination of employment. The vesting period and/or exercisability of an Option may be adjusted by the Committee to reflect the decreased level of employment during any period in which the Participant is on an approved leave of absence or is employed on a less than full time basis, provided that the Committee may take into consideration any accounting consequences to the Company.

To exercise the Option (or any part thereof), Participant shall deliver to the Company a “Notice of Exercise” on a form specified by the Committee, specifying the number of whole  shares of Stock Participant wishes to purchase and how Participant’s shares of Stock should be registered (in Participant’s name only or in Participant’s and Participant’s spouse’s names as community property or as joint tenants with right of survivorship).

The exercise price (the “Exercise Price”) of the Option is set forth in the Term Sheet. The Company shall not be obligated to issue any shares of Stock until Participant shall have paid the total Exercise Price for that number of shares of Stock. The Exercise Price and/or any required tax withholding may be paid in cash or by certified or cashiers’ check, by “cashless” exercise methods such as direct share withholding, or by such other method (including transfer of Stock previously owned by the Participant, or broker-assisted Regulation T simultaneous exercise and sale), as permitted by the Committee.

Fractional shares may not be exercised. Shares of Stock will be issued as soon as practical after exercise.

Notwithstanding the above, the Company shall not be obligated to deliver any shares of Stock during any period if either (a) the Participant has not satisfied any applicable tax withholding obligations, (b) the Stock is not properly registered or subject to an applicable exemption therefrom, (c) the Stock is not listed on the stock exchanges on which the Company’s Stock is otherwise listed, or (d) the Company determines that the exercisability of the Option or the delivery of shares hereunder would violate any federal or state securities or other applicable laws, and the Option may be rescinded if necessary to ensure compliance with federal, state or other applicable laws. The Participant shall not acquire or have any rights as a shareholder of the Company by virtue of this Standard Terms and Conditions or the Term Sheet (or the Award evidenced thereby) until certificates representing shares of Stock issuable upon exercise of the Option are actually issued and delivered to the Participant in accordance herewith.

    EXPIRATION OF OPTION

Except as provided in this Section 4, the Option shall expire and cease to be exercisable as of the Expiration Date set forth in the Term Sheet.

  A.   In the event that the Participant shall cease to be employed by the Company prior to a Change in Control for any reason other than death, disability, Retirement, or other reasons determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, the Option evidenced hereby shall immediately expire and cease to be exercisable.

  B.   In the event that the Participant shall cease to be employed by the Company as a result of Retirement (as defined below), the Option evidenced hereby shall continue to vest as set forth in the Term Sheet and this Standard Terms and Conditions and shall remain exercisable for five years after the date of the Participant’s cessation of employment, but in no event later than the Expiration Date (unless such Option shall sooner be surrendered for termination or expire), and only by the Participant or by the person or persons to whom the right to exercise such Option shall have passed by will or the laws of descent and distribution. At the end of such period, the Option (unless it shall sooner have been surrendered for termination or have expired) shall terminate and cease to be exercisable. For purposes hereof, a qualifying “Retirement” shall have occurred if at the time of cessation of employment (a) the employee is at least age 55 and has at least five years of service with the Company, (b) the combination of the employee’s age plus years of service equals at least 65, and (c) the employee has signed a two-year non competition agreement in a form acceptable to the Company.

  C.   In the event that the Participant shall cease to be employed by the Company as a result of disability (as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion), the Option shall remain exercisable for three months after the date of such cessation of employment, but in no event later than the Expiration Date (unless such Option shall sooner be surrendered for termination or expire), and only (a) by the Participant or by the person or persons to whom the right to exercise such Option shall have passed by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and (b) if and to the extent that such Option was exercisable by the Participant at such date of cessation of employment. At the end of such period, the Option (unless it shall sooner have been surrendered for termination or have expired) shall terminate and cease to be exercisable.

  D.   In the event of the death of the Participant either while in the employ of the Company or within five (5) years after Retirement from the employ of the Company (as defined above), the Option shall become exercisable (unless such Option shall sooner be surrendered or expire) for one year after the date of death of the Participant; provided, however, that the Option must be exercised no later than the Expiration Date, and only (a) by the person or persons to whom the right to exercise such Option shall have passed by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and (b) if and to the extent that the Option shall have been exercisable by the Participant at the date of death. At the end of such period, such Option (unless it shall sooner have been surrendered or have expired) shall terminate and cease to be exercisable.

  E.   Notwithstanding any other provision of these Standard Terms and Conditions to the contrary, in the event of a Change in Control (as defined in the Plan), the Option evidenced hereby shall become immediately exercisable in full (unless it shall sooner have been surrendered for termination or have expired),

  F.   The Committee may, in the event of a public solicitation by any person, firm or corporation other than the Company, of tenders of 50% or more of the then outstanding Stock (known conventionally as a “tender offer”), accelerate exercisability of the Option evidenced hereby if the Participant is then employed with the Company, so that the Option shall become immediately exercisable in full; provided that any such accelerated exercisability shall cease upon the expiration, termination or withdrawal of such “tender offer,” whereupon the Option evidenced hereby shall be (and shall continue thereafter to be) exercisable only to the extent that it would have been exercisable if no such acceleration or exercisability had been authorized.

  G.   Upon the forfeiture, cancellation, or expiration of this Option, any shares of Stock issuable under this Option that have not been exercised shall again be available for issuance or Award under the Plan.

    RESTRICTIONS ON RESALES OF OPTION SHARES

The Company may impose such restrictions, conditions or limitations as it determines appropriate as to the timing and manner of any resales by the Participant or other subsequent transfers by the Participant of any shares of Stock issued as a result of the exercise of the Option, including without limitation (a) restrictions under an insider trading policy, (b) restrictions designed to delay and/or coordinate the timing and manner of sales by Participant and other optionholders and (c) restrictions as to the use of a specified brokerage firm for such resales or other transfers.

    INCOME TAXES

To the extent required by applicable federal, state, local or foreign law, the Participant shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Company for the satisfaction of any withholding tax obligations that arise by reason of an Option exercise or disposition of shares issued as a result of an Option exercise. The Company shall not be required to issue shares or to recognize the disposition of such shares until such obligations are satisfied. The Committee, in its sole discretion, may permit Participant to satisfy all or part of such tax obligation through withholding of the number of shares of Stock otherwise issuable to Participant; by the Participant transferring to the Company nonrestricted shares of Stock previously owned by the Participant; and/or by permitting Participant to engage in a broker-assisted Regulation T simultaneous exercise and sale.

    NON-TRANSFERABILITY OF OPTION

The Option granted hereunder shall be exercisable during Participant’s lifetime only by Participant and may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, exchanged, encumbered or otherwise alienated or hypothecated, except (i) by testamentary disposition by the Participant or the laws of descent and distribution or by a qualified domestic relations order; or (ii) certain transfers described in the Plan that are made with the prior approval of the Committee and on such terms and conditions as the Committee in its sole discretion shall approve.

    THE PLAN AND OTHER AGREEMENTS

In addition to these Terms and Conditions, the Option shall be subject to the terms of the Plan, which are incorporated into these Standard Terms and Conditions by this reference. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning set forth in the Plan.

The Term Sheet, these Standard Terms and Conditions and the Plan constitute the entire understanding between the Participant and the Company regarding the Option. Any prior agreements, commitments or negotiations concerning the Option are superseded.

    LIMITATION OF INTEREST IN SHARES SUBJECT TO OPTION

Neither the Participant (individually or as a member of a group) nor any beneficiary or other person claiming under or through the Participant shall have any right, title, interest, or privilege in or to any shares of Stock allocated or reserved for the purpose of the Plan or subject to the Term Sheet or these Standard Terms and Conditions except as to such shares of Stock, if any, as shall have been issued to such person upon exercise of the Option or any part of it. Nothing in the Plan, in the Term Sheet, these Standard Terms and Conditions or any other instrument executed pursuant to the Plan shall confer upon the Participant any right to continue in the Company’s employ or service nor limit in any way the Company’s right to terminate the Participant’s employment at any time for any reason. Neither the Award of this Option nor any shares of Stock issuable pursuant thereto shall be considered “compensation” for purposes of any Company employee benefit plan, unless such plan expressly so provides otherwise.

    GENERAL

In the event that any provision of these Standard Terms and Conditions is declared to be illegal, invalid or otherwise unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, such provision shall be reformed, if possible, to the extent necessary to render it legal, valid and enforceable, or otherwise deleted, and the remainder of these Standard Terms and Conditions shall not be affected except to the extent necessary to reform or delete such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision.

The headings preceding the text of the sections hereof are inserted solely for convenience of reference, and shall not constitute a part of these Standard Terms and Conditions, nor shall they affect its meaning, construction or effect.

Neither the Plan nor these Standard Terms and Conditions shall confer upon the Participant any right with respect to continuance of employment by the Company, nor shall it interfere in any way with the Participant’s right, or the Company’s right, to terminate the Participant’s employment at any time.

These Standard Terms and Conditions shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective permitted heirs, beneficiaries, successors and assigns.

The Participant acknowledges that a copy of the Plan, the Plan prospectus and a copy of the Company’s most recent annual report to its shareholders has been delivered to the Participant.

The Plan and these Standard Terms and Conditions shall be governed, construed, interpreted and administered solely in accordance with the laws of the state of New York, without regard to principles of conflicts of law.

All questions arising under the Plan or under these Standard Terms and Conditions shall be decided by the Committee in its total and absolute discretion.

AVNET, INC.
STANDARD TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR
NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTOR NONQUALIFIED STOCK OPTIONS

These Standard Terms and Conditions apply to any Options granted under the Avnet, Inc. 2003 Stock Compensation Plan (the “Plan”) that are identified as nonqualified stock options and are evidenced by a Term Sheet or an action of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) that specifically refers to these Standard Terms and Conditions.

    TERMS OF OPTION

AVNET, INC. (the “Company”), has granted to the Participant named in the Term Sheet provided to said Participant herewith (the “Term Sheet”) a nonqualified stock option (the “Option”) to purchase up to the number of shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Stock”), set forth in the Term Sheet, at the purchase price per share and upon the other terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Term Sheet, these Standard Terms and Conditions (as amended from time to time), and the Plan. For purposes of these Standard Terms and Conditions and the Term Sheet, any reference to the Company shall include a reference to any Subsidiary.

    NON-QUALIFIED STOCK OPTION

The Option is not intended to be an incentive stock option under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) and will be interpreted accordingly.

    EXERCISE OF OPTION

The Option shall not be exercisable as of the grant date (the “Grant Date”) set forth in the Term Sheet. After the Grant Date, to the extent not previously exercised, and subject to termination or acceleration as provided in these Standard Terms and Conditions and the Plan, the Option shall be exercisable to the extent it becomes vested, as described in the Term Sheet, to purchase up to that number of shares of Stock as set forth in the Term Sheet provided that (except as set forth in Section 4 below) Participant remains a director of the Company and does not experience a termination as a director.

To exercise the Option (or any part thereof), Participant shall deliver to the Company a “Notice of Exercise” on a form specified by the Board, specifying the number of whole shares of Stock Participant wishes to purchase and how Participant’s shares of Stock should be registered (in Participant’s name only or in Participant’s and Participant’s spouse’s names as community property or as joint tenants with right of survivorship).

The exercise price (the “Exercise Price”) of the Option is set forth in the Term Sheet. The Company shall not be obligated to issue any shares of Stock until Participant shall have paid the total Exercise Price for that number of shares of Stock. The Exercise Price and/or any required tax withholding may be paid, in cash or by certified or cashiers’ check, by “cashless” exercise methods such as direct share withholding, or by such other method (including transfer of Stock previously owned by the Participant, or broker-assisted Regulation T simultaneous exercise and sale), as permitted by the Board.

Fractional shares may not be exercised. Shares of Stock will be issued as soon as practical after exercise.

Notwithstanding the above, the Company shall not be obligated to deliver any shares of Stock during any period if either (a) the Stock is not properly registered or subject to an applicable exemption therefrom, (b) the Stock is not listed on the stock exchanges on which the Company’s Stock is otherwise listed, or (c) the Company determines that the exercisability of the Option or the delivery of shares hereunder would violate any federal or state securities or other applicable laws, and the Option may be rescinded if necessary to ensure compliance with federal, state or other applicable laws. The Participant shall not acquire or have any rights as a shareholder of the Company by virtue of this Standard Terms and Conditions or the Term Sheet (or the Award evidenced thereby) until certificates representing shares of Stock issuable upon exercise of the Options are actually issued and delivered to Participant in accordance herewith.

    EXPIRATION OF OPTION

Except as provided in this Section 4, the Option shall expire and cease to be exercisable as of the Expiration Date set forth in the Term Sheet.

  A.   In the event that Participant shall cease to be a Director prior to a Change in Control for any reason other than death, disability, the normal expiration of the Participant’s term as a Director without re-election, or other reasons determined by the Board in its sole discretion, the Option evidenced hereby shall forthwith, with or without written notice from the Board or the Company to the Participant, terminate and cease to be exercisable.

  B.   In the event that the Participant shall cease to be a Director due to disability (as determined by the Board in its discretion), the normal expiration of the Participant’s term as a Director without re-election, or other reasons determined by the Board in its sole discretion, the Option evidenced hereby shall continue to vest and shall remain exercisable for five years after the date on which the Participant ceases to be a Director, but in no event later than the day prior to the Expiration Date (unless such option shall sooner be surrendered for termination or expire), and only by the Participant or by the person or persons to whom the right to exercise the Option shall have passed by will or the laws of descent and distribution. At the end of such period, the Option (unless it shall sooner have been surrendered for termination or have expired) shall terminate and cease to be exercisable.

  C.   In the event of the death of the Participant either while serving as a Director or within five (5) years of the disability or normal expiration of the Participant’s term as a Director without re-election, the Option shall become exercisable (unless such Option shall sooner be surrendered or expire) for one year after the date of death of the Participant; provided, however, that the Option must be exercised no later than the Expiration Date, and only (a) by the person or persons to whom the right to exercise such Option shall have passed by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and (b) if and to the extent that the Option shall have been exercisable by the Participant at the date of death. At the end of such period, such Option (unless it shall sooner have been surrendered or have expired) shall terminate and cease to be exercisable.

  D.   Notwithstanding any other provision of these Standard Terms and Conditions to the contrary, in the event of a Change in Control (as defined in the Plan), the Option evidenced hereby shall become immediately exercisable in full (unless it shall sooner have been surrendered for termination or have expired).

  E.   The Board may, in the event of a public solicitation by any person, firm or corporation other than the Company, of tenders of 50% or more of the then outstanding Stock (known conventionally as a “tender offer”), accelerate exercisability of the Option evidenced hereby if the Participant is then employed with or serving as a Director of the Company, so that the Option shall become immediately exercisable in full; provided that any such accelerated exercisability shall cease upon the expiration, termination or withdrawal of such “tender offer,” whereupon the Option evidenced hereby shall be (and shall continue thereafter to be) exercisable only to the extent that it would have been exercisable if no such acceleration or exercisability had been authorized.

  F.   Upon the forfeiture, cancellation, or expiration of this Option, any shares of Stock issuable under the Option that have not been exercised shall again be available for issuance or Award under the Plan.

    RESTRICTIONS ON RESALES OF OPTION SHARES

The Company may impose such restrictions, conditions or limitations as it determines appropriate as to the timing and manner of any resales by the Participant or other subsequent transfers by the Participant of any shares of Stock issued as a result of the exercise of the Option, including without limitation (a) restrictions under an insider trading policy, (b) restrictions designed to delay and/or coordinate the timing and manner of sales by Participant and other optionholders and (c) restrictions as to the use of a specified brokerage firm for such resales or other transfers.

    INCOME TAXES

To the extent required by applicable federal, state, local or foreign law, the Participant shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Company for the satisfaction of any withholding tax obligations that arise by reason of an Option exercise or disposition of shares issued as a result of an Option exercise. The Company shall not be required to issue shares or to recognize the disposition of such shares until such obligations are satisfied.

    NON-TRANSFERABILITY OF OPTION

The Option granted hereunder shall be exercisable during Participant’s lifetime only by Participant and may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, exchanged, encumbered or otherwise alienated or hypothecated, except (i) by testamentary disposition by the Participant or the laws of descent and distribution or by a qualified domestic relations order; or (ii) certain transfers described in the Plan that are made with the prior approval of the Board and on such terms and conditions as the Board in its sole discretion shall approve.

    THE PLAN AND OTHER AGREEMENTS

In addition to these Terms and Conditions, the Option shall be subject to the terms of the Plan, which are incorporated into these Standard Terms and Conditions by this reference. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning set forth in the Plan.

The Term Sheet, these Standard Terms and Conditions and the Plan constitute the entire understanding between the Participant and the Company regarding the Option. Any prior agreements, commitments or negotiations concerning the Option are superseded.

    LIMITATION OF INTEREST IN SHARES SUBJECT TO OPTION

Neither the Participant (individually or as a member of a group) nor any beneficiary or other person claiming under or through the Participant shall have any right, title, interest, or privilege in or to any shares of Stock allocated or reserved for the purpose of the Plan or subject to the Term Sheet or these Standard Terms and Conditions except as to such shares of Stock, if any, as shall have been issued to such person upon exercise of the Option or any part of it. Nothing in the Plan, in the Term Sheet, these Standard Terms and Conditions or any other instrument executed pursuant to the Plan shall confer upon the Participant any right to continue in the Company’s employ or service nor limit in any way the Company’s right to terminate the Participant’s employment or service at any time for any reason.

    GENERAL

In the event that any provision of these Standard Terms and Conditions is declared to be illegal, invalid or otherwise unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, such provision shall be reformed, if possible, to the extent necessary to render it legal, valid and enforceable, or otherwise deleted, and the remainder of these Standard Terms and Conditions shall not be affected except to the extent necessary to reform or delete such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision.

The headings preceding the text of the sections hereof are inserted solely for convenience of reference, and shall not constitute a part of these Standard Terms and Conditions, nor shall they affect its meaning, construction or effect.

Neither the Plan nor these Standard Terms and Conditions shall confer upon the Participant any right with respect to continuance of membership on the Board, nor shall it interfere in any way with the Participant’s right to resign from the Board at any time.

These Standard Terms and Conditions shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective permitted heirs, beneficiaries, successors and assigns.

The Participant acknowledges that a copy of the Plan, the Plan prospectus and a copy of the Company’s most recent annual report to its shareholders has been delivered to the Participant.

The Plan and these Standard Terms and Conditions shall be governed, construed, interpreted and administered solely in accordance with the laws of the state of New York, without regard to principles of conflicts of law.

All questions arising under the Plan or under these Standard Terms and Conditions shall be decided by the Board in its total and absolute discretion.

AVNET, INC.
STANDARD TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR
EMPLOYEE INCENTIVE STOCK OPTIONS

These Standard Terms and Conditions apply to any Options granted under the Avnet, Inc. 2003 Stock Compensation Plan (the “Plan”) that are identified as incentive stock options and are evidenced by a Term Sheet or an action of the Committee that specifically refers to these Standard Terms and Conditions.

    TERMS OF OPTION

AVNET, INC. (the “Company”), has granted to the Participant named in the Term Sheet provided to said Participant herewith (the “Term Sheet”) an incentive stock option (the “Option”) to purchase up to the number of shares of the Company’s common stock (the “Stock”), set forth in the Term Sheet, at the purchase price per share and upon the other terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Term Sheet, these Standard Terms and Conditions (as amended from time to time), and the Plan. For purposes of these Standard Terms and Conditions and the Term Sheet, any reference to the Company shall include a reference to any Subsidiary.

    EXERCISE OF OPTION

The Option shall not be exercisable as of the grant date (the “Grant Date”) set forth in the Term Sheet. After the Grant Date, to the extent not previously exercised, and subject to termination or acceleration as provided in these Standard Terms and Conditions and the Plan, the Option shall be exercisable to the extent it becomes vested, as described in the Term Sheet, to purchase up to that number of shares of Stock as set forth in the Term Sheet provided that (except as set forth in Section 3 below) Participant remains employed with the Company and does not experience a termination of employment. The vesting period and/or exercisability of an Option may be adjusted by the Committee to reflect the decreased level of employment during any period in which the Participant is on an approved leave of absence or is employed on a less than full time basis, provided that the Committee may take into consideration any accounting consequences to the Company.

To exercise the Option (or any part thereof), Participant shall deliver to the Company a “Notice of Exercise” on a form specified by the Committee, specifying the number of whole  shares of Stock Participant wishes to purchase and how Participant’s shares of Stock should be registered (in Participant’s name only or in Participant’s and Participant’s spouse’s names as community property or as joint tenants with right of survivorship).

The exercise price (the “Exercise Price”) of the Option is set forth in the Term Sheet. The Company shall not be obligated to issue any shares of Stock until Participant shall have paid the total Exercise Price for that number of shares of Stock. The Exercise Price and/or any required tax withholding may be paid in cash or by certified or cashiers’ check, by “cashless” exercise methods such as direct share withholding, or by such other method (including transfer of Stock previously owned by the Participant, or broker-assisted Regulation T simultaneous exercise and sale), as permitted by the Committee.

Fractional shares may not be exercised. Shares of Stock will be issued as soon as practical after exercise.

Notwithstanding the above, the Company shall not be obligated to deliver any shares of Stock during any period if either (a) the Stock is not properly registered or subject to an applicable exemption therefrom, (b) the Stock is not listed on the stock exchanges on which the Company’s Stock is otherwise listed, or (c) the Company determines that the exercisability of the Option or the delivery of shares hereunder would violate any federal or state securities or other applicable laws, and the Option may be rescinded if necessary to ensure compliance with federal, state or other applicable laws. Participant shall not acquire or have any rights as a shareholder of the Company by virtue of this Standard Terms and Conditions or the Term Sheet (or the Award evidenced thereby) until certificates representing shares of Stock issuable upon exercise of the Option are actually issued and delivered to the Participant in accordance herewith.

    EXPIRATION OF OPTION

Except as provided in this Section 3, the Option shall expire and cease to be exercisable as of the Expiration Date set forth in the Term Sheet.

  A.   In the event that the Participant shall cease to be employed by the Company prior to a Change in Control for any reason other than death, disability, Retirement, or other reasons determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, the Option evidenced hereby shall immediately expire and cease to be exercisable.

  B.   In the event that the Participant shall cease to be employed by the Company as a result of Retirement (as defined below), the Option evidenced hereby shall continue to vest as set forth in the Term Sheet and this Standard Terms and Conditions and shall remain exercisable for five years after the date of the Participant’s cessation of employment, but in no event later than the Expiration Date (unless such Option shall sooner be surrendered for termination or expire), and only by the Participant or by the person or persons to whom the right to exercise such Option shall have passed by will or the laws of descent and distribution. At the end of such period, the Option (unless it shall sooner have been surrendered for termination or have expired) shall terminate and cease to be exercisable. Participant acknowledges that the Option shall generally cease to be an incentive stock option three (3) months after Retirement and shall thereafter be a nonqualified stock option. For purposes hereof, a qualifying “Retirement” shall have occurred if at the time of cessation of employment (a) the employee is at least age 55 and has at least five years of service with the Company, (b) the combination of the employee’s age plus years of service equals at least 65, and (c) the employee has signed a two-year non competition agreement in a form acceptable to the Company.

  C.   In the event that the Participant shall cease to be employed by the Company as a result of disability (as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion), the Option shall remain exercisable for three months after the date of such cessation of employment, but in no event later than the Expiration Date (unless such Option shall sooner be surrendered for termination or expire), and only (a) by the Participant or by the person or persons to whom the right to exercise such Option shall have passed by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and (b) if and to the extent that such Option was exercisable by the Participant at such date of cessation of employment. At the end of such period, the Option (unless it shall sooner have been surrendered for termination or have expired) shall terminate and cease to be exercisable.

  D.   In the event of the death of the Participant either while in the employ of the Company or within five (5) years after Retirement from the employ of the Company (as defined above), the Option shall become exercisable (unless such Option shall sooner be surrendered or expire) for one year after the date of death of the Participant; provided, however, that the Option must be exercised no later than the Expiration Date, and only (a) by the person or persons to whom the right to exercise such Option shall have passed by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and (b) if and to the extent that the Option shall have been exercisable by the Participant at the date of death. At the end of such period, such Option (unless it shall sooner have been surrendered or have expired) shall terminate and cease to be exercisable.

  E.   Notwithstanding any other provision of these Standard Terms and Conditions to the contrary, in the event of a Change in Control (as defined in the Plan), the Option evidenced hereby shall become immediately exercisable in full (unless it shall sooner have been surrendered for termination or have expired),

  F.   The Committee may, in the event of a public solicitation by any person, firm or corporation other than the Company, of tenders of 50% or more of the then outstanding Stock (known conventionally as a “tender offer”), accelerate exercisability of the Option evidenced hereby if the Participant is then employed with the Company, so that the Option shall become immediately exercisable in full; provided that any such accelerated exercisability shall cease upon the expiration, termination or withdrawal of such “tender offer,” whereupon the Option evidenced hereby shall be (and shall continue thereafter to be) exercisable only to the extent that it would have been exercisable if no such acceleration or exercisability had been authorized.

  G.   Upon the forfeiture, cancellation, or expiration of the Option, any shares of Stock issuable under this Option that have not been exercised shall again be available for issuance or Award under the Plan.

    RESTRICTIONS ON RESALES OF OPTION SHARES

The Company may impose such restrictions, conditions or limitations as it determines appropriate as to the timing and manner of any resales by the Participant or other subsequent transfers by the Participant of any shares of Stock issued as a result of the exercise of the Option, including without limitation (a) restrictions under an insider trading policy, (b) restrictions designed to delay and/or coordinate the timing and manner of sales by Participant and other optionholders and (c) restrictions as to the use of a specified brokerage firm for such resales or other transfers.

    INCOME TAXES

To the extent required by applicable federal, state, local or foreign law, the Participant shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Company for the satisfaction of any withholding tax obligations that arise by reason of an Option exercise or disposition of shares issued as a result of an Option exercise. The Company shall not be required to issue shares or to recognize the disposition of such shares until such obligations are satisfied.

The Option is intended to qualify as an incentive stock option under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and will be interpreted accordingly. Section 422 of the Code provides, among other things, that the Participant shall not be taxed upon the exercise of a stock option that qualifies as an incentive stock option provided the Participant does not dispose of the shares of Stock acquired upon exercise of such option until the later of two years after such option is granted to the Participant and one year after such option is exercised. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Section 422 of the Code provides that incentive stock options (including, possibly, the Option) shall not be treated as incentive stock options if and to the extent that the aggregate fair market value of shares of Stock (determined as of the time of grant) with respect to which such incentive stock options are exercisable for the first time by the Participant during any calendar year (under all plans of the Company and its subsidiaries) exceeds $100,000, taking options into account in the order in which they were granted. Thus, if and to the extent that any shares of Stock issued under a portion of the Option exceeds the foregoing $100,000 limitation, such shares shall not be treated as issued under an incentive stock option pursuant to Section 422 of the Code.

    NON-TRANSFERABILITY OF OPTION

The Option granted hereunder shall be exercisable during Participant’s lifetime solely by Participant and may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, exchanged, encumbered or otherwise alienated or hypothecated, except by testamentary disposition by the Participant or the laws of descent and distribution.

    THE PLAN AND OTHER AGREEMENTS

In addition to these Terms and Conditions, the Option shall be subject to the terms of the Plan, which are incorporated into these Standard Terms and Conditions by this reference. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning set forth in the Plan.

The Term Sheet, these Standard Terms and Conditions and the Plan constitute the entire understanding between the Participant and the Company regarding the Option. Any prior agreements, commitments or negotiations concerning the Option are superseded.

    LIMITATION OF INTEREST IN SHARES SUBJECT TO OPTION

Neither the Participant (individually or as a member of a group) nor any beneficiary or other person claiming under or through the Participant shall have any right, title, interest, or privilege in or to any shares of Stock allocated or reserved for the purpose of the Plan or subject to the Term Sheet or these Standard Terms and Conditions except as to such shares of Stock, if any, as shall have been issued to such person upon exercise of the Option or any part of it. Nothing in the Plan, in the Term Sheet, these Standard Terms and Conditions or any other instrument executed pursuant to the Plan shall confer upon the Participant any right to continue in the Company’s employ or service nor limit in any way the Company’s right to terminate the Participant’s employment at any time for any reason. Neither the Award of this Option nor any shares of Stock issuable pursuant thereto shall be considered “compensation” for purposes of any Company employee benefit plan, unless such plan expressly so provides otherwise.

    GENERAL

In the event that any provision of these Standard Terms and Conditions is declared to be illegal, invalid or otherwise unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, such provision shall be reformed, if possible, to the extent necessary to render it legal, valid and enforceable, or otherwise deleted, and the remainder of these Standard Terms and Conditions shall not be affected except to the extent necessary to reform or delete such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision.

The headings preceding the text of the sections hereof are inserted solely for convenience of reference, and shall not constitute a part of these Standard Terms and Conditions, nor shall they affect its meaning, construction or effect.

Neither the Plan nor these Standard Terms and Conditions shall confer upon the Participant any right with respect to continuance of employment by the Company, nor shall it interfere in any way with the Participant’s right, or the Company’s right, to terminate the Participant’s employment at any time.

These Standard Terms and Conditions shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective permitted heirs, beneficiaries, successors and assigns.

The Participant acknowledges that a copy of the Plan, the Plan prospectus and a copy of the Company’s most recent annual report to its shareholders has been delivered to the Participant.

The Plan and these Standard Terms and Conditions shall be governed, construed, interpreted and administered solely in accordance with the laws of the state of New York, without regard to principles of conflicts of law.

All questions arising under the Plan or under these Standard Terms and Conditions shall be decided by the Committee in its total and absolute discretion.

STANDARD TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR
PERFORMANCE STOCK UNITS

FISCAL 2007 – 2009 PERFORMANCE PERIOD

These Standard Terms and Conditions apply to any Performance Stock Units granted under the Avnet, Inc. 2003 Stock Compensation Plan (the “Plan”) for the Fiscal 2007 – 2009 Performance Period (as defined below)that are identified as performance stock units and are evidenced by an action of the Committee.

1.   TERMS OF PERFORMANCE STOCK UNITS

Avnet, Inc, (the “Company”), has granted to the Participant restricted stock units (the “Performance Stock Units” or “PSUs”) covering the number of shares of its common stock (the “Stock”) as set forth on the cover page hereto, subject to the conditions set forth in these Standard Terms and Conditions and the Plan.

2.   VESTING AND PERFORMANCE

The PSUs shall vest based on a 3-year cumulative performance cycle, beginning as of July 2, 2006 and ending on June 27, 2009 – Fiscal 2007 thru 2009 — (the “Performance Period”). The vesting of the Performance Stock Units shall be subject to the Company achieving by the end of the Performance Period both Absolute Economic Profit (“EP”) Improvement and Relative EP Improvement (each as defined herein and as determined by the Committee) equal to at least the Threshold levels set forth below. The “Absolute EP Improvement” means the cumulative increase in the Company’s economic profit during the Performance Period Fiscal 2007 thru 2009) as compared with the cumulative EP over the prior three-year period (Fiscal 2004 thru 2006.) The “Relative EP Improvement” means the cumulative increase in the Company’s economic profit during the Performance Period over the prior three-year period as compared with the cumulative increase during the Performance Period in the economic profit of an index of peer companies consisting of the corporations listed on Exhibit A hereto, adjusted for size, and expressed as the percentage by which the Company’s economic profit increase exceeds or is exceeded by that of the index.

For purposes hereof, “economic profit” means operating income after tax less a capital charge on the amount of capital invested in the business. For purposes hereof, “operating income” excludes certain items as determined by the Committee such as restructuring charges, asset writedowns, impairments, financial impacts of accounting, tax or regulatory rule changes, etc.

Subject to the forgoing, and provided that the Participant has remained continuously employed by or in the service of the Company from the Grant Date through the last day of the Performance Period, the number of PSUs that will vest based on the Company’s level of achievement with respect to the Absolute and Relative EP Improvement goals set forth above, which vesting shall occur as of the last day of the Performance Period (the “Vest Date”), shall be determined in accordance with the following matrix:

                                     
        Percentage of Performance Stock Units Vesting

        3-year Cumulative EP Improvement (Absolute)

In the event that the Company’s actual Absolute and/or Relative EP Improvement is between the achievement levels set forth in the table above, the percentage vesting shall be determined by interpolation.

Following the end of the Performance Period and the collection of relevant data necessary to determine the extent to which the performance goals set forth in this Paragraph 2 have been satisfied, the Committee will determine: (a) the amount of Absolute EP Improvement and Relative EP Improvement that was achieved by the Company over the Performance Period; and (b) the percentage of the Performance Stock Units that vested as of the last day of the Performance Period. The Committee shall make these determinations in its sole discretion. The level of achievement of Absolute EP Improvement and Relative EP Improvement shall be evidenced by the Committee’s written certification, in accordance with Code Section 162(m). For the avoidance of doubt, any Performance Stock Units that do not vest in accordance with the forgoing on the Vest Date shall expire without consideration on the Vest Date.

Upon the vesting of all or a portion of the PSUs, one share of Stock shall be issuable for each Performance Stock Unit that vests on the Vest Date (the “PSU Shares”). Thereafter, the Company will transfer such PSU Shares to the Participant upon the Committee’s written certification as set forth in this Paragraph 2 and the satisfaction of any required tax withholding obligations, securities law registration or other requirements, and applicable stock exchange listing. No fractional shares shall be issued with respect to vesting of Performance Stock Units. The Participant shall not acquire or have any rights as a shareholder of the Company by virtue of these Standard Terms and Conditions (or the Award evidenced hereby) until the certificates representing shares of Stock issuable pursuant to this Award are actually issued and delivered to the Participant in accordance with the terms of the Plan and these Standard Terms and Conditions.

3.   TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT OR SERVICE

Except as provided below in the case of death, disability, retirement, or change in control, in the event that the Participant shall cease to be employed by or in the service of the Company for any reason before the Performance Stock Units have fully vested pursuant to Paragraph 2, Participant shall immediately forfeit all of the Performance Stock Units.

4.   DEATH OR DISABILITY OF PARTICIPANT

If Participant’s employment or service with the Company is terminated by reason of the Participant’s death or disability (as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion), the Participant shall vest (on the Vest Date) in a pro-rata share of the PSUs equal to the number of PSUs that would have become vested had Participant remained continuously employed by the Company through the end of the Performance Period, multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of full calendar quarters completed as of the date of death or disability, and the denominator of which is 12. One share of Stock shall be issued for each vested PSU following the end of the Performance Period in accordance with Paragraph 2 above, and any non-vested PSU shall be forfeited.

5.   RETIREMENT

If Participant’s employment or service with the Company is terminated by reason of Retirement (as defined herein), the Participant shall vest (on the Vest Date) in the PSUs equal to the number of PSUs that would have become vested had Participant remained continuously employed by the Company through the end of the Performance Period. For purposes hereof, a qualifying “Retirement” shall have occurred if at the time of cessation of employment all of the following conditions are satisfied: (a) Participant is at least age 55 and has at least five years of service with the Company, (b) the combination of Participant’s age plus years of service equals at least 65, and (c) Participant has signed a non-competition agreement in a form acceptable to the Company in the period of time from Retirement through the normal vesting period for each award, or two years, whichever is greater. One share of Stock shall be issued for each vested PSU in accordance with Paragraph 2 above, and any non-vested PSU shall be forfeited.

6.   CHANGE IN CONTROL

Notwithstanding any other provision of these Standard Terms and Conditions to the contrary, in the event of a Change in Control (as defined in the Plan), all restrictions on the Performance Stock Units shall lapse, the Performance Stock Units shall become immediately and fully vested and payable, and one share of Stock shall be issued for each Performance Stock Unit in accordance with Paragraph 2 above.

7.   INCOME TAXES

Participant acknowledges that the delivery of unrestricted shares of Stock following vesting of a Performance Stock Unit may give rise to a withholding tax liability, and that no shares of Stock are issuable hereunder until such withholding obligation is satisfied in full. The Participant agrees to remit to the Company the amount of any taxes required to be withheld. The Committee, in its sole discretion, may permit Participant to satisfy all or part of such tax obligation through withholding of the number of shares of Stock otherwise issued to the Participant, with the amount of the withholding to be credited based on the current Fair Market Value of the Stock.

8.   THE PLAN

In addition to these Terms and Conditions, the Performance Stock Units shall be subject to the terms of the Plan, which are incorporated into these Standard Terms and Conditions by this reference. In the event of a conflict between the terms of these Standard Terms and Conditions and the Plan, the Plan shall control. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meaning set forth in the Plan.

These Standard Terms and Conditions and the Plan constitute the entire understanding between the Participant and the Company regarding the Performance Stock Units. Any prior agreements, commitments or negotiations concerning the Performance Stock Units are superseded.

9.   RESTRICTIONS ON RESALES

The Company may impose such restrictions, conditions or limitations as it determines appropriate as to the timing and manner of any resales by the Participant or other subsequent transfers by the Participant of any shares of Stock issued pursuant to the Performance Stock Units, including without limitation (a) restrictions under an insider trading policy, (b) restrictions designed to delay and/or coordinate the timing and manner of sales by Participant and other holders of awards granted under the Plan and (c) restrictions as to the use of a specified brokerage firm for such resales or other transfers.

10.   NO ASSIGNMENT

Performance Stock Units granted under the Plan may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, exchanged, encumbered or otherwise alienated or hypothecated until the Performance Stock Units have vested and the corresponding shares of Stock have been issued, except as specifically provided in the Plan.

11.   MISCELLANEOUS

In the event that any provision of these Standard Terms and Conditions is declared to be illegal, invalid or otherwise unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, such provision shall be reformed, if possible, to the extent necessary to render it legal, valid and enforceable, or otherwise deleted, and the remainder of these Standard Terms and Conditions shall not be affected except to the extent necessary to reform or delete such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision.

The headings preceding the text of the sections hereof are inserted solely for convenience of reference, and shall not constitute a part of these Standard Terms and Conditions, nor shall they affect its meaning, construction or effect.

These Standard Terms and Conditions shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective permitted heirs, beneficiaries, successors and assigns. The Participant acknowledges that a copy of the Plan, the Plan prospectus and a copy of the Company’s most recent annual report to its shareholders has been delivered to the Participant.

Neither the Plan nor these Standard Terms and Conditions shall confer upon the Participant any right with respect to continuance of employment by the Company and/or service on the Company’s Board of Directors, nor shall it interfere in any way with the Participant’s right, or the Company’s right, to terminate the Participant’s employment or service at any time.

Neither this Award nor any Stock issuable hereunder shall be considered “compensation” for purposes of any Company employee benefit plan, unless such plan expressly so provides otherwise.

The Plan and these Standard Terms and Conditions shall be governed, construed, interpreted and administered solely in accordance with the laws of the state of New York, without regard to principles of conflicts of law.

All questions arising under the Plan or under these Standard Terms and Conditions shall be decided by the Committee in its total and absolute discretion. It is expressly understood that the Committee is authorized to administer, construe and make all determinations necessary or appropriate to the administration of the Plan and these Standard Terms and Conditions, all of which shall be binding upon the Participant to the maximum extent permitted by the Plan.
