     This Grant is made as of the 1^st day of March, 2010 (“Date of Grant”) by Anixter International Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Corporation”), to «FirstName» «LastName» (“Participant”).

     Section 1. Grant of Stock Units. On the terms and conditions stated herein, the Corporation hereby grants to the Participant «RSU_Grant» stock units (“Units”), convertible to shares of the Corporation on a one-for-one basis.

     Section 2. Vesting, Conversion and Forfeiture. One third of the Units shall vest on each anniversary of the Date of Grant beginning with the «RSUVest» anniversary of the Date of Grant. Units shall convert to shares of stock on the date they vest. If at a time the Units are not vested (i) Participant’s employment with Corporation is terminated or (ii) any transfer of the Units shall be made in violation of this Agreement, the Units and any distributions thereon shall be forfeited and, in the case of transfer, may be reacquired by the Corporation, upon notice to Participant or any transferee, at no cost to the Corporation.

     Section 3. Right of Recoupment. The Grant of the Units is expressly made subject to and conditioned on the following understanding. Participant acknowledges and agrees that if (i) the financial results of the Corporation for its fiscal year immediately preceding the Date of Grant are restated and (ii) the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Corporation (“Committee”) determines, in its sole discretion, that (A) Participant engaged in conduct that caused or partially caused the need for the restatement and (B) a lesser Grant would have been made to Participant under this Agreement based on the restated financial results then (i) the Corporation shall have the right to recoup from Participant the amount of any overpayment of compensation attributable to the Grant or such other amount, up to the full compensation realized by Participant with respect to the Grant, as the Committee determines, in its sole discretion, based on its review of the relevant facts (“Recoupment Amount”) and (ii) the Corporation shall have the right to effect such recoupment by (A) cancelling unvested Units or other options or restricted stock units held by Participant, (B) to the extent permitted by law, offsetting such recoupment obligation against any other obligation of the Corporation to Participant, or (C) demanding repayment from Participant. In the event that a restatement impacts more than one fiscal year, the Corporation may exercise this recoupment right with respect to each fiscal year that is subject to restatement. This recoupment right shall be a separate contract right enforceable by the Corporation against Participant and shall be in addition to, and not in substitution for, any and all other rights or remedies that the Corporation may have against Participant with respect to Participant’s conduct and the restatement, including any right the Corporation may have under Section 304 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. The Corporation shall also be entitled to (i) interest on the Recoupment Amount at a reasonable rate of interest and (ii) to reimbursement of all costs of collection.

     Section 4. Prohibited Transfers. Any sale, hypothecation, encumbrance or other transfer of Units is prohibited unless the same shall have been consented to in advance in writing by the Corporation (which consent may be withheld in the sole discretion of the Corporation).

     Section 5. Withholding Taxes. As a condition to the grant, vesting or conversion of the Units acquired hereunder, the Corporation shall withhold the number of whole Units required for the satisfaction of any Federal, state or local withholding tax obligations that may arise in connection therewith.
