R E C I T A L S

A. Borrower and the Lenders, including the Agent, are parties to that certain Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of June 30, 2008 (the “Credit Agreement”). Unless otherwise defined in this Amendment, capitalized terms used herein have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Credit Agreement.

B. In accordance with the Credit Agreement, Borrower has agreed to grant a security interest in its Accounts to and for the benefit of the Lenders and the Agent, which security interest shall be subordinate in all respects to the security interests in such Accounts in favor of the holders of Senior Indebtedness, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Amendment and in a new Security Agreement, all as more particularly described below.

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, and intending to be legally bound, the parties hereto agree as follows:

Section 1. Certain Acknowledgments.

(a) The Borrower hereby represents and warrants to the Lenders and the Agents that, pursuant to that certain Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement among the Borrower, Bell Microproducts – Future Tech, Inc., Rorke Data, Inc., Bell Microproducts Canada – Tenex Data ULC, Total Tec Systems, Inc. and Forefront Graphics US Inc., as borrowers, Bell Microproducts Canada Inc., and Bell Microproducts Mexico Shareholder, LLC, as guarantors, Wachovia Capital Finance Corporation (Western) (“Wachovia Capital Finance”), as Administrative Agent, Bank of America, N.A., as Co-Agent (together with Wachovia Capital Finance, the “Senior Bank Agents”), and the other lenders named therein, dated as of September 29, 2008 (the “New Senior Credit Agreement”), the Borrower and the other credit parties named therein have refinanced both the indebtedness previously evidenced and governed by the Wachovia Bank Group Senior ABL Agreement and the indebtedness previously evidenced and governed by the Wachovia Bank Group Senior ABS Agreement, and that the Wachovia Bank Group Senior ABS Agreement has been effectively terminated.

(b) Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, a refinancing, refunding, renewal or extension of the Senior Indebtedness referred to in Section 1(a) above will, itself, constitute “Senior Indebtedness”, as that term is defined in the Credit Agreement; provided, that any increase in the principal amounts of any such Indebtedness incurred in connection with any such extension, renewal, refunding or refinancing will not constitute Senior Indebtedness unless, at the time of such extension, renewal, refunding or refinancing, no Event of Default or Default then exists and, on a pro forma basis (assuming the full funding of such increased principal Indebtedness), the financial covenants contained in Sections 6.2(a), 6.2(g) and 6.2(h) of the Credit Agreement are satisfied. Accordingly, on or prior to the date hereof, Borrower has delivered to the Agent the certificate described in Section 4(g) below, evidencing the satisfaction of the foregoing financial covenants (the “Amendment Certificate”).

(c) Each of the Lenders and Agent hereby acknowledge that, based on the Amendment Certificate, the indebtedness evidenced and governed by the New Senior Credit Agreement constitutes “Senior Indebtedness”, as that term is defined in the Credit Agreement.

Section 2. Grant of Security Interest in Borrower’s Accounts. Pursuant to Section 2.4(c) of the Credit Agreement, the Borrower hereby agrees to grant a security interest in and to all of the Borrower’s Accounts, as additional Collateral for all of the Obligations, which security interest shall be subordinate in all respects to the Senior Indebtedness, but senior to any other claim with respect to such Accounts. Accordingly, and in order to ratify and confirm the previous grant of security interests in the Collateral owned by the Borrower as security for the Obligations pursuant to the 2000 Security Agreement and the 2007 Security Agreement, the Borrower hereby agrees to execute and deliver a Security Agreement in favor of the Agent and the Lenders, in substantially the form set forth as Exhibit A attached hereto (and with all attachments thereto completed), which Security Agreement will be delivered contemporaneously with the execution and delivery of this Agreement.
