     AGREEMENT dated as of October 1, 2007 (the “Effective Date”) between BRIGHTPOINT, INC., an Indiana corporation (the “Employer” or the “Company”), and Michael K. Milland (the “Executive”).

W I T N E S S E T H :

     WHEREAS, the Employer desires to employ the Executive as its Co-Chief Operating Officer and President, International Operations to be assured of his services as such on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth; and

     WHEREAS, the Executive is willing to accept such employment on such terms and conditions;

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements hereinafter set forth, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the Employer and the Executive hereby agree as follows:

     I. Executive Duties.

     A. During the term of this Agreement, the Executive shall have the duties and responsibilities attached hereto as Exhibit A, reporting directly to the Chief Executive Officer of Employer and the Board of Directors of the Employer (the “Board”). It is understood that such duties and responsibilities shall be reasonably related to the Executive’s position.

     B. The Executive shall devote substantially all of his business time, attention, knowledge and skills faithfully, diligently and to the best of his ability, in furtherance of the business and activities of the Company. The principal place of performance by the Executive of his duties hereunder shall be the Company’s principal executive offices, although the Executive may be required to travel outside of the area where the Company’s principal executive offices are located in connection with the business of the Company.

     II. Compensation.

     A. During the term of this Agreement, the Employer shall pay the Executive a salary (the “Salary”) at a rate of US $530,880 per annum, payable in equal monthly installments on the first day of each month, or at such other times as may mutually be agreed upon between the Employer and the Executive. Such Salary may be increased from time to time at the discretion of the Board or the Board’s Compensation and Human Resources Committee (“Compensation Committee”). Any such increase shall be recorded in a countersigned addendum to this Agreement.

     B. In addition to the foregoing, the Executive shall be entitled to such other cash bonuses and such other compensation in the form of stock, stock options or other property or rights as may from time to time be awarded to him by the Board or the Compensation Committee during

or in respect of his employment hereunder, including, beginning with the Company’s fiscal year commencing January 1, 2008: (i) an annual cash bonus potential, pursuant to the Company’s Annual Executive Cash Bonus Plan, in an amount up to 25% of the Executive’s Salary (initially US $132,720), and (ii) participation in the Company’s annual incentive based Executive Equity Plan at an initial participation rate of 50% of the Executive’s Salary (initially US$265,440). The decision whether the Executive shall receive any or all of the potential bonus or earn the equity grant shall be determined by the Compensation Committee in its sole discretion based on its determination regarding whether specific goals were achieved.

     C. With respect to the Company’s fourth fiscal quarter of 2007, the Executive shall have the potential to receive a bonus of up to 25% of 25% of his Salary (US$33,180) (the “Potential Bonus”). The decision whether the Executive shall receive any or all of the Potential Bonus shall be determined by the Compensation Committee, in its sole discretion, based on, among other factors, the Executive’s success in integrating the Company’s business with the newly acquired Dangaard operations.

     III. Benefits.

     A. During the term of this Agreement, the Executive shall have the right to receive or participate in all existing and future benefits and plans which the Company may from time to time institute during such period for all of its full-time U.S. based employees and for which the Executive is eligible, except for those that are specifically excluded under the terms of this Agreement. Nothing paid to the Executive under any plan or arrangement presently in effect or made available in the future shall be deemed to be in lieu of the salary or any other obligation payable to the Executive pursuant to this Agreement.

     B. In addition to the foregoing, the Executive shall be entitled to an annual contribution by the Company of 6.6% of Executive’s base Salary to a pension plan maintained by the Executive and subject to such rules and regulations as govern such plans;

     C. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Executive shall be responsible for purchasing health insurance for himself and his family. The Executive may request that the Company allow him to participate in its group health insurance program for himself and his family by authorizing the Company to reduce his annual Relocation allowance to offset any Employer contribution and withhold the remaining monthly costs from his normal payroll.

     D. During the term of this Agreement, the Executive will be entitled to the number of paid holidays, personal days off, paid vacation days and sick leave days in each calendar year as are determined by the Company from time to time. For 2008, the Executive will be entitled to 24 days Paid Time Off and seven additional paid holidays. Such paid vacation may be taken in the Executive’s discretion with the prior approval of the Employer, and at such time or times as are not inconsistent with the reasonable business needs of the Company.

     IV. Travel Expenses. All travel and other expenses incident to the rendering of services reasonably incurred on behalf of the Company by the Executive during the term of this Agreement shall be paid by the Employer provided that such expenses are incurred in accordance with the Company’s policies. If any such expenses are paid in the first instance by the Executive, the Employer shall reimburse him therefor on presentation of appropriate receipts for any such expenses.

     A. The Employer and the Executive acknowledge that the services to be performed by the Executive under this Agreement are unique and extraordinary and, as a result of such employment, the Executive will be in possession of confidential information relating to the business practices of the Company. The term “confidential information” shall mean any and all information (verbal and written) relating to the Company or any of its affiliates, or any of their respective activities, other than such information which can be shown by the Executive to be in the public domain (such information not being deemed to be in the public domain merely because it is embraced by more general information which is in the public domain) other than as the result of breach of the provisions of this Section 10(a), including, but not limited to, information relating to: trade secrets, personnel lists, financial information, research projects, services used, pricing, customers, customer lists and prospects, product sourcing, marketing and selling and servicing. The Executive agrees that he will not, during or for a period of two years after the termination of employment, directly or indirectly, use, communicate, disclose or disseminate to any person, firm or corporation any confidential information regarding the clients, customers or business practices of the Company acquired by the Executive during his employment by Employer, without the prior written consent of Employer; provided, however, that the Executive understands that Executive will be prohibited from misappropriating any trade secret (as defined for purposes of Indiana law) at any time during or after the termination of employment.

     C. The Executive hereby agrees that he shall not, during the period of his employment and for a period of two (2) years following such employment, directly or indirectly, take any action which constitutes an interference with or a disruption of any of the Company’s business activities including, without limitation, the solicitations of the Company’s customers, or persons listed on the personnel lists of the Company. At no time during the term of this Agreement, or thereafter shall the Executive directly or indirectly, disparage the commercial, business or financial reputation of the Company.

     D. For purposes of clarification, but not of limitation, the Executive hereby acknowledges and agrees that the provisions of subparagraphs IX.B. and IX.C. above shall serve as a prohibition against him, during the period referred to therein, directly or indirectly, hiring, offering to hire, enticing, soliciting or in any other manner persuading or attempting to persuade any officer, employee, agent, lessor, lessee, licensor, licensee or customer who has been previously contacted by either a representative of the Company, including the Executive, (but only those suppliers existing during the time of the Executive’s employment by the Company, or at the termination of his employment), to discontinue or alter his, her or its relationship with the Company.

     E. Upon the termination of the Executive’s employment for any reason whatsoever, all documents, records, notebooks, equipment, price lists, specifications, programs, customer and prospective customer lists and other materials which refer or relate to any aspect of the business of the Company which are in the possession of the Executive including all copies thereof, shall be promptly returned to the Company.

     F. 1. The Executive agrees that all processes, technologies and inventions (“Inventions”), including new contributions, improvements, ideas and discoveries, whether patentable or not, conceived, developed, invented or made by him during his employment by Employer shall belong to the Company, provided that such Inventions grew out of the Executive’s work with the Company, are related in any manner to the business (commercial or experimental) of the Company or are conceived or made on the Company’s time or with the use of the Company’s facilities or materials. The Executive shall further: (a) promptly disclose such Inventions to the Company; (b) assign to the Company, without additional compensation, all patent and other rights to such Inventions for the United States and foreign countries; (c) sign all papers necessary to carry out the foregoing; and (d) give testimony in support of his inventorship;

          2. If any Invention is described in a patent application or is disclosed to third parties, directly or indirectly, by the Executive within two years after the termination of his employment by the Company, it is to be presumed that the Invention was conceived or made during the period of the Executive’s employment by the Company, unless such Invention is entirely unrelated to the Company’s business directly or indirectly; and

          3. The Executive agrees that he will not assert any rights to any Invention as having been made or acquired by him prior to the date of this Agreement, except for Inventions, if any, disclosed to the Company in writing prior to the date hereof.

     G. The Company shall be the sole owner of all products and proceeds of the Executive’s services hereunder, including, but not limited to, all materials, ideas, concepts, formats, suggestions, developments, arrangements, packages, programs and other intellectual properties that the Executive may acquire, obtain, develop or create in connection with and during the term of the Executive’s employment hereunder, free and clear of any claims by the Executive (or anyone claiming under the Executive) of any kind or character whatsoever (other than the Executive’s right to receive payments hereunder). The Executive shall, at the request of the Company, execute such assignments, certificates or other instruments as the Company may from time to time deem necessary or desirable to evidence, establish, maintain, perfect, protect, enforce or defend its right, or title and interest in or to any such properties.

     H. The parties hereto hereby acknowledge and agree that (i) the Company would be irreparably injured in the event of a breach by the Executive of any of his obligations under this Section 10, (ii) monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy for any such breach, and (iii) the Company shall be entitled to injunctive relief, in addition to any other remedy which it may have, in the event of any such breach.

     I. The parties hereto hereby acknowledge that, in addition to any other remedies the Company may have under Section IX.H. hereof, the Company shall have the right and remedy to require the Executive to account for and pay over to the Company all compensation, profits, monies, accruals, increments or other benefits (collectively, “Benefits”) derived or received by the Executive as the result of any transactions constituting a breach of any of the provisions of Section IX, and the Executive hereby agrees to account for and pay over such Benefits to the Company.

     J. Each of the rights and remedies enumerated in Section IX.H. and IX.I. shall be independent of the other, and shall be severally enforceable, and all of such rights and remedies shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other rights and remedies available to the Company under law or in equity.

     K. If any provision contained in this Section IX is hereafter construed to be invalid or unenforceable, the same shall not affect the remainder of the covenant or covenants, which shall be given full effect, without regard to the invalid portions.

     L. If any provision contained in this Section IX is found to be unenforceable by reason of the extent, duration or scope thereof, or otherwise, then the court making such determination shall have the right to reduce such extent, duration, scope or other provision and in its reduced form any

such restriction shall thereafter be enforceable as contemplated hereby.

     M. It is the intent of the parties hereto that the covenants contained in this Section IX shall be enforced to the fullest extent permissible under the laws and public policies of each jurisdiction in which enforcement is sought (the Executive hereby acknowledging that said restrictions are reasonably necessary for the protection of the Company). Accordingly, it is hereby agreed that if any of the provisions of this Section IX shall be adjudicated to be invalid or unenforceable for any reason whatsoever, said provision shall be (only with respect to the operation thereof in the particular jurisdiction in which such adjudication is made) construed by limiting and reducing it so as to be enforceable to the extent permissible, without invalidating the remaining provisions of this Agreement or affecting the validity or enforceability of said provision in any other jurisdiction.

     X. Indemnification. The Employer shall indemnify and hold harmless the Executive against any and all expenses reasonably incurred by him in connection with or arising out of (a) the defense of any action, suit or proceeding in which he is a party, or (b) any claim asserted or threatened against him, in either case by reason of or relating to his being or having been an employee, officer or director of the Company, whether or not he continues to be such an employee, officer or director at the time of incurring such expenses, except insofar as such indemnification is prohibited by law. Such expenses shall include, without limitation, the fees and disbursements of attorneys, amounts of judgments and amounts of any settlements, provided that such expenses are agreed to in advance by the Employer. The foregoing indemnification obligation is independent of any similar obligation provided in the Employer’s Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws, and shall apply with respect to any matters attributable to periods prior to the Effective Date, and to matters attributable to his employment hereunder, without regard to when asserted.

     XI. General. This Agreement is further governed by the following provisions:
