AGREEMENT

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

(p)General Ledger and Certain Receivables. Such Seller Party shall maintain its consolidated general accounting ledger such that all indebtedness and other obligations owed to Originator or in which Originator has a security interest or other interest arising in connection with the sale of merchandise or the rendering of services by Originator and sold to Seller are recorded as part of general ledger category “company code US10”; provided however, that from and after December 28, 2010 indebtedness or other obligations owed to Originator or in which Originator has a security interest or other interest arising in connection with the sale of merchandise or the rendering of services by the business previously conducted by businesses acquired by Originator in an Excluded Acquisition shall not be recorded as part of general ledger category “company code US10” until such time, if any, as such indebtedness or other obligations are originated, serviced and collected in a manner substantially similar to the Receivables.

“Excluded Receivable” means all indebtedness and other obligations owed to Originator or in which Originator has a security interest or other interest (including, without limitation, any indebtedness, obligation or interest constituting an account, chattel paper, instrument or general intangible) arising in connection with the sale of merchandise or the rendering of services by Originator and further includes, without limitation, the obligation to pay any Finance Charges with respect thereto, which, in any case:

(i) the account debtor for which is Intelbras S.A. Industria de Telecomunicacao Eletronica Brasileira and such indebtedness or other obligation was originated after December 30, 2016;

(ii) the account debtor for which is 3M Company and such indebtedness or other obligation was originated after October 31, 2017; or

(iii) both (a) arises in connection with the sale of merchandise or the rendering of services by the business previously conducted by any businesses acquired by Originator in an Excluded Acquisition and (b) is not recorded or maintained in Avnet’s consolidated general ledger accounting records as part of general ledger category “company code US10” (other than any Receivables previously coded under “company code US10” that have been coded under any other category without the Agent’s prior written consent).

Indebtedness and other rights and obligations arising from any one transaction, including, without limitation, indebtedness and other rights and obligations represented by an individual invoice, shall constitute an Excluded Receivable separate from an Excluded Receivable consisting of the indebtedness and other rights and obligations arising from any other transaction; provided, that any indebtedness, rights or obligations referred to in the immediately preceding sentence shall be an Excluded Receivable regardless of whether the account debtor or Seller treats such indebtedness, rights or obligations as a separate payment obligation.”
