PROXY STATEMENT

This proxy statement contains information related to the annual meeting of our shareholders to be held on Wednesday, May 31, 2006, beginning at 10:00 a.m., local time, at our Santa Ana campus, 1600 E. Saint Andrew Place, Santa Ana, California 92705, and at any postponements or adjournments thereof. The enclosed form of proxy is solicited by our Board of Directors. The date of this proxy statement is April 26, 2006. It is first being mailed to our shareholders on April 26, 2006.

ABOUT THE MEETING

Purpose of the Annual Meeting

The purpose of the Annual Meeting is to elect directors and to conduct the business described in the Notice of Annual Meeting.

Quorum

A quorum is the minimum number of shares required to hold a meeting. The presence in person or by proxy of the holders of a majority of the shares of the outstanding shares of common stock will constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at the meeting. Votes cast by proxy or in person at the meeting will be counted by the persons appointed by the company to act as election inspectors for the meeting. The election inspectors will treat shares represented by proxies that reflect abstentions as shares that are present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum and for purposes of determining the outcome of any matter submitted to the shareholders for a vote. Abstentions, however, do not constitute a vote “for” or “against” any matter and thus will be disregarded in the calculation of a plurality or of “votes cast.”

The election inspectors will treat shares referred to as “broker non-votes” (i.e., shares held by brokers or nominees over which the broker or nominee lacks discretionary power to vote and for which the broker or nominee has not received specific voting instructions from the beneficial owner) as shares that are present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum.

Who May Vote

Holders of record of our Class A common stock at the close of business on April 3, 2006 may vote at the annual meeting. Each share of Ingram Micro common stock that you own entitles you to one vote.

How to Vote

You may vote in person at the meeting or by proxy. We recommend that you vote by proxy even if you plan to attend the meeting. You can always change your vote at the meeting.

If you are a registered shareholder (meaning your name is included on the shareholder file maintained by our transfer agent, Computershare Trust Company, N.A.), you can vote by proxy in any of the following ways:


	•	By Internet. If you have Internet access, you may submit your proxy from any location in the world by following the “To vote using the Internet” instructions on the proxy card. The deadline for voting electronically is 1:00 a.m. (Central Time) on May 31, 2006.


	•	By Telephone. You may submit your proxy by following the “To vote using the telephone (within U.S. and Canada) telephone” instructions on the proxy card. The deadline for voting by telephone is 1:00 a.m. (Central Time) on May 31, 2006.

	•	In Writing. You may do this by signing your proxy card, or for shares held in street name, the voting instruction card included by your broker, bank or other nominee, and mailing it in the accompanying enclosed, pre-addressed envelope. If you provide specific voting instructions, your shares will be voted as you instruct. If you sign, but do not provide instructions, we will vote your shares in favor of the director candidates. The deadline for voting by mail is 1:00 a.m. (Central Time) on May 31, 2006 (your proxy card must be received by that time).

If your shares are held in the name of a bank, broker or other holder of record, you will receive instructions from the holder of record that you must follow in order for your shares to be voted.

If you participate in our 401(k) Investment Savings Plan, you may vote an amount of shares of common stock equivalent to the interest in common stock credited to your account as of the record date. You may vote by instructing Fidelity Investments, the trustee of the plan, pursuant to the instruction card being mailed with this proxy statement to plan participants. The trustee will vote your shares in accordance with your duly executed instructions if they are received by May 25, 2006. If you do not provide the trustee with your voting instructions, the trustee will not vote on your behalf.

How Proxies Work

Our Board of Directors is asking for your proxy. Giving us your proxy means you authorize us to vote your shares at the meeting in the manner you direct. You may vote for all, some or none of our director candidates. You may also abstain from voting.

Proposal You are Asked to Vote on and the Board’s Voting Recommendation

If you properly fill in your proxy card and send it to us in time to vote, or vote by the Internet or telephone, one of the individuals named on your proxy card will vote your shares as your proxy and as you have directed. If you sign the proxy card but do not make specific choices, your proxy will follow the Board’s recommendations and vote your shares:


	•	“FOR” the election of all 4 nominees for director (see “Proposal 1 — Election of Directors”).

If any other matter is presented at the meeting, your proxy will vote in accordance with his best judgment. At the time this proxy statement went to press, we knew of no other matters to be acted on at the meeting.

Vote Necessary to Approve Proposal

Directors are elected by a plurality, and the four nominees who receive the most votes will be elected. Abstentions and broker non-votes will not be taken into account in determining the outcome of the election. Under current New York Stock Exchange rules, if your broker holds your shares in its name, your broker is permitted to vote your shares on Proposal 1 even if it does not receive voting instructions from you.

Revoking Your Proxy

You make revoke your proxy by: (1) sending in another signed proxy card with a later date; (2) providing subsequent Internet or telephone voting instructions; (3) notifying our Secretary in writing before the meeting that you have revoked your proxy; or (4) voting in person at the meeting.

Proxy Solicitation Costs

Our company will bear the costs of soliciting proxies.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS

The Board of Directors held ten meetings during fiscal 2005. All directors attended more than 75% of the total number of meetings of the Board and the committees on which he or she served. The Board regularly holds executive sessions of non-management directors without management present at all such meetings. Directors are encouraged and expected to attend the annual meeting of shareholders. All directors attended Ingram Micro’s 2005 annual meeting of shareholders.

Compensation of Board of Directors

Ingram Micro pays directors who are not employed by the company (“non-management directors”), (1) an annual retainer award of cash, stock options and restricted stock with an estimated value of $167,000 ($182,000 for committee chairs), and (2) meeting fees for attending meetings of the Board. The mix of cash, stock options and restricted stock for the annual retainer award must be selected by each non-management director prior to January 1 of each year or promptly upon initial election to the Board, as the case may be. The

award is prorated for partial year service. The mix of cash, stock options and restricted stock for the annual retainer award is subject to the following assumptions and restrictions:


	*Annual Retainer Award*


	•	Cash. If cash is selected as a component of compensation, the maximum amount that may be selected is $67,000. Committee chairs are paid a minimum of $15,000 cash and may elect a maximum amount of $82,000.

	•	Equity-based compensation. Equity-based compensation must be selected as a component of compensation. The equity-based compensation may consist of stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units or a combination thereof and must have a value of at least $100,000. The sum of the cash retainer and the value of the equity-based compensation selected may not exceed $167,000 ($182,000 for committee chairs).


	•	Stock Options. Options are granted as non-qualified stock options at the time of the first semi-annual stock option grant made to our management each year (historically the first business day in February, but starting in 2006, the first business day in January) (the “management grant date”). The number of options granted is based on the Black-Scholes calculation used to determine the management stock option grant. The options have an exercise price equal to at the closing price of our common stock on the NYSE on the date of grant, vest one-twelfth per month and have a term of ten years.

	•	Restricted Stock/ Restricted Stock Units. Restricted stock/restricted stock units are also granted on the management grant date. The number of shares granted are equal to the dollar value of the amount of restricted stock selected divided by the closing price of our common stock on the NYSE on the date of grant rounded up to the next whole share. Restrictions on disposition of the shares will lapse one year after the grant date. Restricted stock units were added in 2005 and, if elected, are allowed to be deferred in accordance with Internal Revenue Code Section 409A.


	*Meeting Fees*

Non-management directors also receive a cash fee of $1,000 for each Board and committee meeting they attend, whether in person or by conference telephone call.


	*Other*

Each director is required to achieve and maintain ownership of at least 15,000 shares of our common stock (with vested but unexercised stock options counted as outstanding shares) beginning five years from the date of his or her election to the Board. All current directors, other than Mr. Atkins (who owns 14,583 shares), meet this stock ownership requirement. Each director is also reimbursed for expenses incurred in attending meetings of the Board and Board committees. Beginning in 2004, each director was also able to elect to defer his or her cash compensation through a non-qualified deferral plan.


	*Additional Compensation for Non-Executive Chairman of the Board*

We also entered into an agreement with Mr. Foster to compensate him separately in his capacity as non-executive Chairman of the Board effective June 1, 2005. Mr. Foster will receive a $6 million cash retention bonus at the end of the two year term of the agreement if he remains as the non-executive Chairman of the Board throughout the term. Mr. Foster will also receive an annual non-executive Chairman’s fee equal to $650,000 payable in cash and equity-based compensation, plus the standard Board of Director’s annual retainer compensation package comprised of an annual award of cash and equity-based compensation, with an estimated value of approximately $167,000. If Mr. Foster were to select cash as part of the mix of his compensation, such election may not be greater than 40% of his total aggregate annual compensation. (See “Employment Arrangements — Agreement with Chief Executive Officer” for additional compensation information relating to Mr. Foster’s agreement.)

2005 Compensation of Non-Management Directors. The following table lists the 2005 non-management director compensation which comprised of: (1) an annual retainer award paid, based on each of their elections, in cash, stock options, restricted stock, restricted stock units or a combination thereof, and (2) meeting fees paid to for attending meetings of the Board.

Independence Determination for Directors

In March 2003, the Board of Directors adopted director independence standards as part of its Corporate Governance Guidelines. Pursuant to the Guidelines, the Board undertook its annual review of director independence in March 2006. During this review, the Board considered any transactions and relationships between each director or any member of his or her immediate family and our company and its subsidiaries and affiliates, including holdings of stock of the company by Martha, John and Orrin Ingram. The purpose of this review was to determine whether any such relationships or transactions were inconsistent with a determination that the director is independent.

As a result of this review, the Board determined that all of the directors nominated for election at the annual meeting, as well as all other directors serving on the Board are independent of our company and its management under the standards set forth in the Corporate Governance Guidelines, as well as under Audit Committee independence requirements of the SEC and the NYSE, with the exception of Kent Foster, Gregory Spierkel and Kevin Murai. Messrs. Foster, Spierkel and Murai are considered inside directors because of either their former employment or current employment (in the case of Messrs. Spierkel and Murai) as a senior executive of our company. All of the members of the Human Resources, Audit and Governance Committees are independent.

Audit Committee Financial Qualifications

Our Board of Directors has determined that each member of the Audit Committee: (1) meets the independence criteria prescribed by applicable law and rules of the SEC for Audit Committee membership and (2) is an “independent director” within the meaning of NYSE listing standards and the standards established by our company. Each member of the Audit Committee also meets the NYSE’s financial literacy requirements. No member of our Audit Committee serves on more than three audit committees of public corporations.

In addition, the Board of Directors has designated Michael Smith as an “audit committee financial expert” as such term is defined in Item 401(h) of Regulation S-K promulgated by the SEC, and has determined that he also meets the NYSE’s professional experience requirements through experience gained in his previous positions as former Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of Hughes Electronics Corporation, Vice Chairman of Hughes Electronics and Chairman of Hughes Aircraft Company, as Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of Hughes Electronics, and in nearly 20 years with General Motors Corporation in a variety of financial management positions.

Director Nominations

General Criteria and Process. In identifying and evaluating director candidates, the Governance Committee does not set specific criteria for directors. As expressed in the Governance Committee charter, in nominating candidates, the Governance Committee shall comply with the requirements of our company’s Bylaws and take into consideration such other factors as it deems appropriate. These factors may include judgment, skill, diversity, experience with businesses and other organizations of comparable size, the interplay of the candidate’s experience with the experience of other Board members, and the extent to which the candidate would be a desirable addition to the Board and any committees of the Board. The Governance Committee may use and pay for assistance from consultants, including obtaining background checks, and advice from outside counsel, to assist its review and evaluation.

Shareholder Nominations. Shareholders who wish to recommend nominees for consideration by the Governance Committee may submit their nominations in writing to our Corporate Secretary at the address set forth below under “Annual Report.” The Governance Committee may consider such shareholder recommendations when it evaluates and recommends nominees to the Board of Directors for submission to the shareholders at each annual meeting. In addition, shareholders may nominate directors for election by complying with the eligibility, advance notice and other provisions of the policy. Under the policy, the shareholder must provide timely notice of the nomination to us to be considered by the Governance Committee in connection with our company’s next annual meeting of shareholders. To be timely, the Corporate Secretary must receive the shareholder’s proposal and the information required in the policy on or before December 30th of the year immediately preceding such annual meeting. A copy of the policy is available on the Investor Relations section of our company’s website (www.ingrammicro.com).

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS

Agreements entered into in connection with our November 1996 split-off from our former parent, Ingram Industries

We were split-off from our former parent, Ingram Industries, in November 1996. We agreed to register at various times shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of certain Ingram Industries options and stock appreciation rights held by current or former employees or directors of Ingram Industries, its former subsidiary Ingram Entertainment or their subsidiaries, which options and stock appreciation rights were converted into options to purchase shares of our common stock in 1996. We have completed several registrations with respect to shares of common stock issuable upon exercise of these rollover stock options. The registration statement that we have agreed to keep current is described below.

Registration statements being kept current. We filed a registration statement on Form S-3 covering 10,949,298 shares of common stock that was declared effective on November 20, 1997. It relates to our offer and sale of up to 2,485,944 shares of common stock upon the exercise of options under the Ingram Micro Rollover Option Plan (which options have all expired pursuant to the terms of such option awards) and up to 250,000 shares under the Ingram Micro Amended and Restated 1996 Equity Incentive Plan. It also relates to the offer and sale by our 401(k) plan, the Ingram Thrift Plan, and the Ingram Entertainment Thrift Plan of a total of 8,213,354 shares of our common stock (resulting from the conversion of shares of Class B common stock held by these plans). We have agreed to keep the registration statement current.

Loans to executive officers

All loans to our executive officers discussed below were approved by the Human Resources Committee of the Board and were granted prior to July 30, 2002, the effective date of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. No material modifications or renewals to these loans have been made since that date except for a loan to Matthew A. Sauer which was repaid or forgiven in full as of April 2004 and which was made prior to his election as an executive officer of our company on February 17, 2003.

In connection with our request that Kevin M. Murai, an executive officer, relocate from Canada to the United States as President of Ingram Micro U.S. in 2000, we extended three loans to Mr. Murai, two of which were fully repaid on July 15, 2002. Mr. Murai’s third loan of $300,000 with an interest rate of 6.43% per annum was provided to Mr. Murai to assist him and his family’s transfer to and purchase of a home in Southern California. We agreed to forgive 20% of the outstanding principal and interest on May 30th of each year, commencing May 30, 2001, if Mr. Murai continues to be an employee in good standing with us on each such date. Additionally, we agreed to provide payments to cover the taxes that Mr. Murai may be liable to pay in connection with such forgiveness arrangement. We provided a taxgross-up in the amount of $45,208 to Mr. Murai in 2005 for such loan and $253,666 total taxgross-up since inception of the loan. We forgave

$79,554 ($60,000 in principal and $19,554 in accrued interest) on May 30, 2001; $75,643 ($60,000 in principal and $15,643 in accrued interest) on May 30, 2002; $71,542 ($60,000 in principal and $11,542 in accrued interest) on May 30, 2003; $67,716 ($60,000 in principal and $7,716 in accrued interest) on May 31, 2004; and $63,858 on May 31, 2005 ($60,000 in principal and $3,858 in accrued interest). As of May 31, 2005, the loan to Mr. Murai has now been completely forgiven.

The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors has furnished the following report.

The charter of the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of Ingram Micro Inc. (“Ingram Micro”) as revised in March 2006 specifies that the purpose of the Audit Committee is to discharge its responsibilities as set forth in Ingram Micro’s Amended and Restated Bylaws and to assist the Board’s oversight of:


	•	The integrity of Ingram Micro’s financial reporting process and systems of internal controls regarding finance, accounting, legal and ethical compliance;

	•	Ingram Micro’s compliance with legal and regulatory requirements; and

	•	The Audit Committee meets with management periodically to consider the adequacy of Ingram Micro’s disclosure and internal controls and compliance with applicable laws and company policies, as well as the quality of its financial reporting, including the application of critical accounting policies. As part of this process, the Audit Committee has, in connection with Ingram Micro’s compliance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“SOX 404”), reviewed on a periodic basis with management and Ingram Micro’s independent registered public accounting firm, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (“PwC”), Ingram Micro’s progress on and completion of its SOX 404 compliance project for 2005, and will continue this monitoring in subsequent years.

	•	As part of its oversight activities, the Audit Committee monitors the scope and adequacy of Ingram Micro’s internal auditing program, including reviewing staffing levels and steps taken to implement recommended improvements in internal controls. The Audit Committee discusses these matters with Ingram Micro’s independent registered public accounting firm and with appropriate company financial personnel and internal auditors.

	•	The Audit Committee’s meetings include, whenever appropriate, executive sessions with Ingram Micro’s independent registered public accounting firm and with Ingram Micro’s internal auditors, in each case without the presence of Ingram Micro’s management.

	•	The Audit Committee appoints Ingram Micro’s independent registered public accounting firm for the purpose of issuing an audit report on Ingram Micro’s annual financial statements or performing related work and approves the firm’s compensation.


	•	As part of its oversight of Ingram Micro’s financial statements, the Audit Committee reviews and discusses with both management and Ingram Micro’s independent registered public accounting firm all annual and quarterly financial statements, including reviewing Ingram Micro’s specific disclosures under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” prior to their issuance.

	•	During fiscal 2005, the Audit Committee discussed Ingram Micro’s financial statements with management, including significant accounting and disclosure matters. Management has represented to the Audit Committee that the financial statements were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The Audit Committee also discussed Ingram Micro’s earnings press releases, as well as financial information and earnings guidance provided to analysts and rating agencies, in accordance to the NYSE corporate governance rules.

	•	The Audit Committee received and reviewed the written disclosures and the letter from PwC required by Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1, Independence Discussions with Audit Committees.

	•	The Audit Committee discussed with PwC matters relating to its independence, including monitoring compliance with Ingram Micro’s pre-approval of non-audit services and performing a review of audit and non-audit fees. The Audit Committee also discussed with PwC the matters required to be discussed by Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61, Communication with Audit Committees and as amended by Statement on Auditing Standards No. 90, Audit Committee Communications, including the quality of Ingram Micro’s accounting principles, the reasonableness of significant judgments and the clarity of disclosures in the financial statements.

	•	Based on the reviews and discussions referred to above, the Audit Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the audited financial statements be included in Ingram Micro’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005, for filing with the SEC.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

The following Report of the Human Resources Committee and the stock performance graphs included elsewhere in this proxy statement do not constitute soliciting material and should not be deemed filed or incorporated by reference into any other Ingram Micro filing under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, except to the extent we specifically incorporate this Report or the stock performance graphs by reference therein.

Report of the Human Resources Committee

The Human Resources Committee of the Board of Directors has furnished the following report on executive compensation for fiscal 2005.


	*Our Philosophy of Executive Officer Compensation*

Ingram Micro’s executive officer compensation philosophy has the following key principles:


	•	To target pay at the market median (50^th percentile) for each element of pay and in total, allow compensation to vary based on company performance.


	•	To reward executives for company performance that contributes to growth in shareholder value.

	•	To carefully control the use of stock for compensation purposes in order to limit the dilution of shareholder interests.

	•	To achieve efficiency in delivering executive compensation from an accounting and a tax perspective.

In 2005, we approved a compensation program to executives using the following primary elements:


	•	Base salary;

	•	An annual performance-based cash incentive;

	•	Grants of stock options;

	•	Grants of three-year performance-based cash incentive awards; and

	•	Benefits.

We believe that this multi-component approach best serves the interest of Ingram Micro and its shareholders. It enables Ingram Micro to meet the requirements of the highly competitive business environment for executive talent, while ensuring that executive officer compensation advances shareholders’ short and long-term interests. In general, we seek to encourage and reward both profitable growth and operational efficiency.

We ensure that a high proportion of our executive officers’ current compensation is “at risk.” The only guaranteed forms of officer compensation are base salaries and benefit plans generally available to all associates. The remainder of compensation must be earned through performance.


	*Competitive Compensation for Executives*

Annually, Ingram Micro engages an executive compensation consulting firm, Hewitt Associates, to conduct a total compensation study of executive officers. The study examines the competitiveness of Ingram Micro’s executive compensation programs in total and by element (base pay, annual incentives and long-term incentives). In doing so, the value of each of Ingram Micro’s executive pay elements was compared to information available from survey databases for a selected group of companies drawn from theFORTUNE 500^tm.

We believe this group, which is broader than Ingram Micro’s direct business competitors, represents the labor market in recruiting for executive talent. TheFORTUNE500^tm group used for comparison in 2005 contained 130 non-financial companies in the consulting firm’s database with the following characteristics:


	•	Based in the United States;

	•	Global operations; and

	•	Under $100 billion in annual revenue.

On average, Ingram Micro’s executive compensation is targeted close to competitive levels, while actual pay vs. market varies by individual based on performance and other compensable factors. Based on the results of the study, we increased executive officer base salary ranges by 2.5%, effective January 1, 2006, maintained their short-term incentive target levels, and reduced long-term incentive award guidelines.


	*Approach to Determining Executive Pay*

Base Salaries.For executive roles, Ingram Micro establishes a series of salary grade ranges, with a “midpoint” that is designed to reflect market median levels. Executive roles are assigned to the salary grade that most closely approximates market median. All executive salaries are paid within the salary range for their role.

Individual executives are eligible for salary increases annually. The Human Resources Committee reviews recommendations for changes to salaries from our Chief Executive Officer. His recommendations

take into account factors such as the officer’s performance and overall contribution, as well as the level of salary vs. competitive median levels.

Annual Incentives.Ingram Micro’s 2005 annual executive incentive award program provided for performance-based bonuses for executives as well as management-level associates. The 2005 program was based on Ingram Micro’s performance relative to financial goals designed to encourage both profitability and the efficient use of capital, thus improving shareholder value.

Each executive role has an incentive target that is established as a percentage of base salary. For executive officers, this percentage ranged from 45% up to 100% in 2005 and will range from 45% up to 90% in 2006. If a threshold level of profit performance is not met, the incentive award would be zero. The maximum award for executive officers is two times the target award.

The Human Resources Committee has the ability to make discretionary adjustments to awards under the annual incentive plan, but expects to exercise this discretion only in exceptional circumstances.

Long-Term Incentives.In 2005, Ingram Micro granted two types of long-term incentives: equity-based awards in the form of stock options, and grants of performance-based cash long-term incentive program awards (“Cash LTIP”). Stock options and Cash LTIP are granted to reward achievement of goals that support increased shareholder value.

The Human Resources Committee established the eligibility criteria for executive officers and other key management personnel for these plans. For each executive officer, there is a dollar value guideline for each salary grade that reflects competitive long-term incentive grant levels. This guideline ranges from 150% to 400% of the salary grade midpoint. In 2005, executive officers received three-quarters of this value in stock options and one-quarter in Cash LTIP. Effective January 1, 2006 based upon a review of competitive long-term incentive information as well as the current salary grade midpoints of the executive officers, the dollar value guidelines were reduced and now range from 120% to 290% of salary grade midpoints. In addition executive officers will receive 60 percent of this value in stock options and 40 percent in performance-based long-term incentive awards paid in equity instead of cash.

The Chief Executive Officer recommends for consideration by the Human Resources Committee the number of options to be granted and the dollar value of the Cash LTIP, based on the Committee’s previously established guidelines for award amounts based upon salary grade levels. Historically and through 2005, stock option grants were made to executive officers upon initial employment or promotion, with semi-annual grants in each successive February and July. In 2005, the grant dates were February 1 and July 1. In most cases, options have a three-year vesting schedule and a ten-year term. Since 2002, executive officers have received Cash LTIP program awards which would be earned if Ingram Micro achieves pre-established financial performance goals generally over a three-year measurement period. Similar to the annual executive incentive plan, there is a threshold performance level for each metric; if these thresholds are not met, there will be no award. Except for the Cash LTIP program adopted in 2002, the maximum award opportunity is three times the target award.

We granted Cash LTIP awards in fiscal years 2002 (the “2002-2004 Cash LTIP program”), 2003 (the “2003-2005 Cash LTIP program”), 2004 (the “2004-2006 Cash LTIP program”), and under two separate programs adopted in 2005 (the “2005-2007 Cash LTIP program” and the “June 2005-2006 Cash LTIP program”).

Payments of awards under the 2002-2004 Cash LTIP program (for performance for the 2002-2004 timeframe) occurred in 2005. Payments of awards under the 2003-2005 Cash LTIP program, the 2004-2006 Cash LTIP program, the 2005-2007 Cash LTIP program and the June 2005-2006 Cash LTIP program (collectively, the “Cash LTIP Programs”) will be based on Ingram Micro’s performance against financial metrics during each measurement cycle and made following the conclusion of each cycle. The performance cycle for the 2003-2005 Cash LTIP program has concluded and the Committee anticipates that no payment will be made to any participants under the 2003-2005 Cash LTIP program.

The Human Resources Committee has the ability to make discretionary adjustments to awards under the Cash LTIP programs, but expects to exercise this discretion only in exceptional circumstances.

Benefits and Perquisites. In general, our executive officers participate in Ingram Micro’s broad-based health and welfare, life insurance and 401(k) programs. We do not seek to use benefit programs or perquisites as a primary compensatory element to attract or retain executives.


	*Tax and Accounting Matters*

Subject to the needs of Ingram Micro, the company generally attempts to design all incentive and equity-based programs to be deductible under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).

Also, Ingram Micro implemented provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (revised 2004), “Share-Based Payment” at the beginning of fiscal year 2006. The Committee has examined the impact of accounting expense associated with past and planned future annual equity grants, and has sought to limit dilution of shareholder interests by changing the long-term incentive design for 2006 grants. The changes are expected to generally reduce the accounting expense of executive compensation and the total number of shares used over time.


	*Chief Executive Officer Compensation*

Kent B. Foster retired as the company’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer on June 1, 2005, but remains the non-executive Chairman of the Board of the company. On the same day, Greg Spierkel was appointed as Chief Executive Officer.


	*Mr. Foster’s Compensation*

Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Foster was paid an annual salary of $1,219,595 until he retired on June 1, 2005. For 2005, Mr. Foster also received in March 2006 a prorated annual incentive award of $517,820 representing his award earned for five months service as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer.

On February 1, 2005, Mr. Foster received a grant of 148,080 stock options to purchase shares of common stock at an exercise price of $18.75. These options vest in three equal annual installments, beginning February 1, 2006. While he serves on the Board of Directors, Mr. Foster’s stock options will continue to vest in accordance with the terms of each original grant.

Mr. Foster also received an award under Ingram Micro’s June 2005-2006 Cash LTIP program, with a target value at 100% of $413,600, but which can range from zero up to $1,240,800 (up to 300% of target), depending upon the level of achievement against specific company performance measures. Mr. Foster is also eligible to receive, following the conclusion of the three-year performance cycles under the 2003-2005 Cash LTIP program, the 2004-2006 Cash LTIP program, and the 2005-2007 Cash LTIP program, an award with target values at 100% of $827,200 under these programs. Actual award payments can range from zero up to $2,481,600 under each of the programs (up to 300% of target), depending upon the level of achievement against specific company performance measures.

As discussed above, the Committee anticipates that no payment will be made to any participants under the 2003-2005 Cash LTIP program. In addition, if at the end of the performance cycle award payments would be made under both the 2004-2006 Cash LTIP program and the June 2005-2006 Cash LTIP program, Mr. Foster will receive only the greater of the two awards.

In 2005, Mr. Foster received a cash payment of $3,474,240, representing 420% of his target award under the 2002-2004 Cash LTIP program.

Non-Executive Chairman. The company entered into a new employment agreement in 2005 (the “Agreement”) with Mr. Foster to terminate Mr. Foster’s 2000 employment agreement with the company and to compensate him in his new role as non-executive Chairman for a period of two years from June 1, 2005. In determining the appropriate terms and conditions of the Agreement, the Human Resources Committee

retained Hewitt Associates, and the Governance Committee separately retained an independent advisor, to gather information that included competitive compensation data for non-executive Chairman positions. The Human Resources Committee and the Governance Committee jointly considered all of the information and guidance provided by the two advisors and recommended for consideration and approval by the full Board of Directors (outside the presence of Mr. Foster), the terms and conditions of the Agreement.

Under the Agreement, Mr. Foster receives annual compensation of $650,000 in cash and equity, in addition to the normal Board compensation valued at approximately $167,000. All stock options previously awarded to Mr. Foster will continue to vest according to their original terms during the time he continues to serve on the Board of Directors, and be exercisable until the earlier of: (i) the expiration date of such options or (ii) the fifth anniversary of the date Mr. Foster ceases to perform services for the company. Mr. Foster is also eligible to receive payments, if and when paid to other participants, as if he were a participant, under the Cash LTIP Programs, whether or not Mr. Foster completes his term as non-executive Chairman under the Agreement.

Mr. Foster will also receive a $6 million cash retention bonus at the end of the two year term of the Agreement if he remains as the non-executive Chairman throughout the term. If the company chooses to terminate such Agreement prior to the end of the term other than for cause, Mr. Foster will be entitled to receive in cash: (i) the full amount of the retention bonus, (ii) all accrued and unpaid director’s compensation and annual chairman’s fee to which he is entitled and (iii) all remaining amount of such annual chairman’s fee to which he would have been entitled if he had served through the term of the Agreement. If the company terminates the Agreement for cause, Mr. Foster will be entitled to receive in cash all accrued and unpaid director’s compensation and annual chairman’s fee. If Mr. Foster voluntarily retires before the end of the term and ceases to be the non-executive Chairman, he will receive: (i) all accrued and unpaid director’s compensation and annual chairman’s fees and (ii) a prorated portion of the retention bonus. If Mr. Foster dies or becomes disabled before the end of the term, he will receive: (i) all accrued and unpaid director’s compensation and annual chairman’s fee and (ii) the full amount of the retention bonus.


	*Mr. Spierkel’s Compensation*

Salary and Annual Incentives.When Mr. Spierkel became Chief Executive Officer, his base salary was set at $700,000 per year. Effective December 31, 2005, the Board approved a base salary increase of 4.0% to $728,000 per year. This increase occurred on the same date as salary adjustments for all other executive officers. As a newly promoted Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Spierkel receives a base salary that is well below the competitive norm.

For 2005, Mr. Spierkel received in March 2006 an annual executive incentive award that was prorated for the time spent in his prior role (as President) and his current role (as Chief Executive Officer). The total award was $556,688. For 2006, Mr. Spierkel’s target annual executive incentive award will be $655,200, which is 90% of his 2006 base salary.

Stock Options.Mr. Spierkel received options to purchase shares of common stock on two dates. On February 1, 2005, he received 83,340 stock options at an exercise price of $18.75; these options vest in three equal annual installments, beginning February 1, 2006. Also, Mr. Spierkel was granted options to purchase 91,890 shares of common stock on July 1, 2005. These options were granted at an exercise price of $15.59 and vest in three equal annual installments, beginning July 1, 2006.

Cash Long-Term Incentive Award. We issued an award in 2005 to Mr. Spierkel under the 2005-2007 Cash LTIP program, which, as described above, will allow him to earn a cash payment based upon the company’s achievement against pre-established objective performance measures over a three-year measurement period. Mr. Spierkel’s target payout at 100% is $465,600. At the end of such three-year period, Mr. Spierkel may receive a cash payout, which can range from zero up to $1,396,800 (up to 300% of target), depending upon the level of achievement against specific company performance measures.

Mr. Spierkel also received an award under the June 2005-2006 Cash LTIP program, with a target value at 100% of $223,398 at the conclusion of the performance cycle. At the end of the June 2005-2006 Cash LTIP

performance cycle, Mr. Spierkel may receive a cash payout, which can range from zero up to $670,194 (up to 300% of target), depending upon the level of achievement against specific company performance measures.

As discussed above, although Mr. Spierkel is a participant under the 2003-2005 Cash LTIP program, the Committee anticipates that no payments will be made to any participants under this program. Mr. Spierkel continues to be eligible to receive payment under the 2004-2006 Cash LTIP program and the 2005-2007 Cash LTIP program, which have target values at 100% of $446,796 and $465,600, respectively. Actual award amounts can range from zero up to $1,340,388 and $1,396,800, respectively (up to 300% of target), depending upon the level of achievement against specific company performance measures.

Further, as noted above, since Mr. Spierkel is a participant under both the 2004-2006 Cash LTIP program and the June 2005-2006 Cash LTIP program, if at the end of the performance cycle award payments would be made under both the 2004-2006 Cash LTIP program and the June 2005-2006 Cash LTIP program, Mr. Spierkel will receive only the greater of the two awards.

In 2005, Mr. Spierkel received a cash payment of $1,244,723, representing 420% of his target award under the 2002-2004 Cash LTIP program at the conclusion of the three-year performance cycle.

Long-Term Incentive Program Awards

Since 2002, executive officers have been granted two types of long-term incentives: stock options and grants of performance-based cash long-term incentive program awards (“Cash LTIP”). Cash LTIP awards are granted to reward achievement of goals that support increased shareholder value and which would be earned if Ingram Micro achieves pre-established financial performance goals generally over a three-year measurement period. If specific threshold performance levels are not met, no payments will be made under these Cash LTIP awards. Except for the Cash LTIP program adopted in 2002, the maximum award opportunity is three times the target award.

The following tables list Cash LTIP awards we have granted to named executives under two separate programs adopted in 2005, and under programs adopted in each of fiscal years 2004, 2003 and 2002.

2005-2007 LTIP Program. In fiscal 2005, we adopted the Ingram Micro Inc. 2005-2007 Long-Term Executive Cash Incentive Award Program (the “2005 LTIP Program”) pursuant to the Ingram Micro Inc. Executive Incentive Plan. The following table provides information with respect to threshold, target, and maximum award amounts that may be paid to each named executive officer under the 2005 LTIP Program.

Ingram Micro does not anticipate that any payments will be made under the 2003 LTIP Program because minimum pre-established objective performance measures were not met over the full three-year performance period.

Employment Arrangements

Change-in-Control Agreements. Ingram Micro does not have any written or unwritten arrangements with any executives that provide for payments at, following, or in connection with a change in control of the company.

Agreements with Kent B. Foster. Mr. Foster retired as our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and, upon his re-election to the Board at the 2005 annual meeting of shareholders, became our non-executive Chairman of the Board, effective June 1, 2005.

2000 Agreement — During the time that Mr. Foster served as our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer in 2005, the employment agreement that we entered into with Mr. Foster in March 2000 (the “2000 Agreement”) remained effective. The initial term of this agreement ran through the end of 2002, but was automatically extended for successive additional periods of one year.

The 2000 Agreement provides for payment of an annual base salary of $1,000,000 to Mr. Foster. We reviewed Mr. Foster’s total compensation on an annual basis and increased his base salary to $1,100,000 in

2001, $1,138,500 in 2002, $1,178,350 in 2003, $1,219,595 in 2004 and $1,219,595 in 2005. Mr. Foster had the opportunity to receive an annual executive incentive award equal to 100% of his annual base salary, with a maximum award opportunity of 200% of his annual base salary. The 2000 Agreement further allows Mr. Foster an opportunity to participate in health benefit programs as well as our 401(k) and supplemental investment savings plans. Mr. Foster did not participate in our health benefit programs; however, he received partial reimbursement for executive physicals.

2005 Agreement — The Board approved that effective June 1, 2005 our company mutually terminate with Mr. Foster the 2000 Agreement, with no further compensation or rights accruing or due to Mr. Foster under the 2000 Agreement. We entered into a new agreement with Mr. Foster effective June 1, 2005 for his new role as non-executive Chairman of the Board (the “2005 Agreement”).

The 2005 Agreement provides that all stock options previously awarded to Mr. Foster will continue to vest according to their original terms during the time he serves as the non-executive Chairman of the Board, and all unvested options will vest immediately when he retires from the Board of Directors. Mr. Foster’s 2005 annual incentive bonus, if any, will be paid on a pro-rata basis through June 1, 2005, at the time all other annual incentive bonuses for 2005, if any, are paid to executives.

The 2005 Agreement further provides Mr. Foster’s interest in all existing long-term executive cash incentive programs (the June 2005-2006 Long-Term Executive Cash Incentive Award Program, the 2005-2007 Long-Term Executive Cash Incentive Award Program, the 2004-2006 Long-Term Executive Cash Incentive Award Program, and the 2003-2005 Long-Term Executive Cash Incentive Award Program under the Ingram Micro Inc. Executive Incentive Plan) will continue to accrue irrespective of whether Mr. Foster completes his term as non-executive Chairman of the Board of the company and will be paid to Mr. Foster at the same time as payments are made (if they are made) to other participants.

Payments under these programs will be based on our company’s achievement against pre-established objective performance measures over a three-year period. Minimum performance standards have been established below which no payments will be made. The company does not anticipate that payments will be made under the 2003-2005 Long-Term Executive Cash Incentive Award Program to any of the participants. Further, if at the end of the performance cycle payments would be payable under both the June 2005-2006 Long-Term Executive Cash Incentive Award Program and the 2004-2006 Long-Term Executive Cash Incentive Award Program, Mr. Foster will receive only the greater of the two awards.

Mr. Foster will receive a $6 million cash retention bonus at the end of the two year term of the 2005 Agreement if he remains as the non-executive Chairman of the Board throughout the term. Mr. Foster will also receive an annual non-executive Chairman’s fee equal to $650,000 payable in cash and equity-based compensation, plus the standard Board of Director’s compensation package comprised of an annual award of cash and equity-based compensation, with an estimated value of approximately $167,000. If Mr. Foster were to select cash as part of the mix of his compensation, such election may not be greater than 40% of his total aggregate annual compensation.

If the company chooses to terminate the 2005 Agreement prior to the end of the term other than for cause, Mr. Foster will be entitled to receive in cash: (i) the full amount of the retention bonus, (ii) all accrued and unpaid director’s compensation and annual chairman’s fee to which he is entitled and (iii) all remaining amount of such annual chairman’s fee to which he would have been entitled if he had served through the term of the Agreement. If the company terminates the 2005 Agreement for cause, Mr. Foster will be entitled to receive in cash all accrued and unpaid director’s compensation and annual chairman’s fee.

If Mr. Foster voluntarily retires before the end of the term and ceases to be the non-executive chairman, he will receive: (i) all accrued and unpaid director’s compensation and annual chairman’s fees and (ii) a pro-rated portion of the retention bonus. If Mr. Foster dies or becomes disabled before the end of the term, he will receive: (i) all accrued and unpaid director’s compensation and annual chairman’s fee and (ii) the full amount of the retention bonus.

2001 Executive Retention Agreements with Named Executive Officers. We entered into executive retention agreements in 2001 with each of Messrs. Spierkel, Murai and Koppen and amended Mr. Koppen’s

agreement in 2003. These agreements and as amended provide that if the executive remains employed by us through March 1, 2006, the executive will be entitled to a lump sum cash retention payment of $2.5 million. The executive is not entitled to receive any payment if his employment is (1) terminated by the executive’s resignation for any reason other than his disability prior to March 1, 2006, or (2) terminated by us for cause or for not accepting a transfer of his principal office location to our then corporate headquarters or any of our then regional headquarters, prior to March 1, 2006.

Since these contingencies for non-payment did not occur and Messrs. Spierkel, Murai and Koppen remained employed in good standing with the company through March 1, 2006, they were entitled to receive such lump sum cash retention payments. However, pursuant to the company’s agreement with Mr. Koppen, the Human Resources Committee of the Board at its discretion, deferred payment of the award to Mr. Koppen until the year Mr. Koppen’s employment with the company terminates, or solely at the Human Resources Committee’s election, to an earlier date. Mr. Koppen’s award will be credited with earnings at 10% per year, compounded daily. The company will fund its obligations for Mr. Koppen’s award through a trust established with Wells Fargo Bank.

Executive Officer Severance Policy. In October 2003, the Human Resources Committee adopted the Executive Officer Severance Policy (the “Severance Policy”). The Severance Policy applies to the Chief Executive Officer, and executive officers of the company elected by the company’s Board of Directors who report to either the Chief Executive Officer or Chief Operating Officer (which include all the named executive officers), and to any other executive officers designated by our Board of Directors.

Subject to execution of a release and covenant agreement satisfactory to us, eligible executive officers will be entitled to the severance benefits described below in the event their employment is terminated by us without “cause” as determined under the Severance Policy.

The executive officer will receive an aggregate severance benefit equal to the greater of (x) the sum of the executive officer’s annual base salary and target annual bonus, each as in effect on the effective date of termination; and (y) the product of one-twelfth times the sum of the executive officer’s annual base salary and target annual bonus, each as in effect on the effective date, multiplied by the number of the executive officer’s full years of employment with our company (the “employment years”). The severance benefit will be payable in equal installments from the effective date of termination over the greater of (x) 12 months or (y) that number of months equal to the number of employment years (such greater period, the “Continuation Period”).

The executive officer will also be entitled to an amount in cash equal to executive officer’s actual annual bonus determined for the year in which the Continuation Period begins, prorated to reflect the executive officer’s period of employment in such year. Such payment will be otherwise calculated and paid on the same basis, and at the same time, as the annual bonus payments are made to actively employed Ingram Micro executive officers.

The executive officer and his or her dependents may continue to participate, at the executive officer’s expense, in company-sponsored health and welfare programs through the Continuation Period. The executive officer will also be entitled to participate in an outplacement program, paid for by us, with a maximum cost not to exceed $20,000.

Any unvested stock options, restricted stock awards, or other stock-based incentive compensation awards held by the executive officer will be cancelled on the effective date of termination. Any such vested awards will be governed by the terms of the plan and award agreements for each award. The executive officer’s participation in our Long-Term Executive Cash Incentive Award Programs shall cease on termination of employment; however, payments of earned awards through the date of termination will be made in accordance with the terms of the programs and if they are made, at the same time as to other participants.

Relocation Assistance Arrangements. We have an International Expatriate Assignment Policy applicable to all associates working for Ingram Micro who are transferred from their country of permanent residence and placed on an international assignment for a specified period of time and whom management has approved to be covered by this policy. We generally provide assistance relating to such relocation, including travel costs,

home leave for the associate and the associate’s family, reimbursements for necessary work and residency permits, disposition of home country automobile, transportation and storage of household goods and personal effects, relocation and housing assistance, reimbursements for customary and reasonable transaction expenses, dependent education costs, and tax preparation services.

In addition, Ingram Micro’s International Assignment Tax Equalization Policy is intended to eliminate tax inequities or benefits that normally result from accepting an expatriate foreign assignment. Ingram Micro associates covered under this policy will be provided tax equalization benefits. Accordingly, such associate will not recognize any income tax-related financial losses or gains as a result of an international assignment. In order to ensure that the associate pays no more or no less tax as a result of an international assignment, the associate will be responsible for a “stay-at-home” tax liability, an estimate of the home country tax the associate would have paid had he or she remained in the home country. To assist the associate in meeting the stay-at-home tax liability, an estimated amount of tax is withheld from the associate’s pay each pay period. In general, if upon final determination of the associate’s actual total tax liability for a tax year (which may be several years after such tax year), the total actual tax liability exceeds the associate’s hypothetical tax liability for that tax year (and which amount has been withheld from the associate’s pay), Ingram Micro will reimburse the associate for the difference. If too little has been withheld, the associate will reimburse Ingram Micro for the difference.

We have provided relocation assistance to each of our named executives other than Mr. Foster under one or both of these policies. In addition to these general benefits, we also provided to Mr. Spierkel a $400,000 relocation “sign-on” bonus, including taxgross-up in 2004, which would be forfeited in full to the company should Mr. Spierkel voluntarily terminate his employment with the company or be terminated for cause within three years from the bonus payment date. We relocated Mr. Maquet from France to the United States in 2005 as our Senior Vice President and President, Ingram Micro Latin America. We also agreed with Mr. Maquet that the terms of his French employment contract will not be applicable while he serves as the company’s Senior Vice President and President, Ingram Micro Latin America. However, we agreed that in accordance with his French employment contract, Mr. Maquet or the company (for any reason other than cause) is required to provide the other with six months notice prior to termination. We also agreed that should Mr. Maquet be terminated for any reason other than cause during his assignment, Ingram Micro will repatriate Mr. Maquet and his family to France under similar relocation terms and conditions and will provide severance pay equal to thirty months of average salary (defined as base salary and target bonus), which amount will be increased by one month of average salary for every year of service after January 1, 2007.

INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (“PwC”) served as Ingram Micro’s independent registered public accounting firm for the 2005 fiscal year. PwC has advised Ingram Micro that it has no direct or indirect financial interest in Ingram Micro. Representatives of PwC are expected to be present at the 2006 annual meeting of shareholders, with the opportunity to make a statement should they desire to do so, and will be available to respond to appropriate questions from shareholders. We anticipate that our Audit Committee will retain PwC to continue to serve as Ingram Micro’s independent registered public accounting firm for 2006. See “Report of the Audit Committee.”

The following fees were charged by PwC for 2004 and 2005 fiscal year services to Ingram Micro:


	Audit Fees. PwC’s fees for auditing Ingram Micro’s annual financial statements and for services that are normally provided by PwC in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements were as follows:


	•	Fiscal Year 2004 — $6,844,477, of which $3,221,250 was billed by PwC in fiscal year 2004 and the balance was billed by PwC in fiscal year 2005. Audit fees for fiscal 2004 also relate to PwC’s audit of our internal controls pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 for fiscal year 2004.

	•	Fiscal Year 2005 — $6,061,777, of which $3,957,592 was billed by PwC in fiscal year 2005 and the balance will be billed by PwC in fiscal year 2006. Audit fees for fiscal 2005 also relate to PwC’s audit of our internal controls pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 for fiscal year 2005.


	Audit-Related Fees. PwC’s fees for assurance and related services that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of our financial statements and are not reported under“Audit Fees” above were as follows:


	•	Fiscal Year 2004 — $1,297,249, relating to assistance with the documentation and evaluation of our internal controls pursuant to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and agreed-upon or attestation procedures not part of recurring audit services, including those required to be delivered in connection with our accounts receivable-based securitization programs, and consultations regarding the accounting or disclosure treatment of transactions or events and/or the actual or potential impact of proposed rules, standards or interpretations by regulatory or standard setting bodies.

	•	Fiscal Year 2005 — $27,513, relating to agreed-upon or attestation procedures that are required to be delivered by the company’s independent or statutory auditor pursuant to local law or regulations and/or corporate reorganization activities as well as consultations by the company’s management regarding the accounting or disclosure treatment of transactions or events and/or the actual or potential impact of proposed rules, standards or interpretations by the PCAOB, SEC, FASB, or other regulatory or standard setting bodies.


	Tax Fees. PwC fees for services which were principally related to tax compliance and consulting matters were $167,455 in fiscal year 2004 and $79,257 in fiscal year 2005. These tax fees related to consultations on tax technical matters, including federal, state and local tax and foreign tax matters, and tax return preparation services.

	All Other Fees. PwC neither billed us any fees nor provided any services not already reported under “Audit Fees,” “Audit-Related Fees” and “Tax Fees” above in or for fiscal years 2004 and 2005.

Since January 2003, management is required to review and obtain the prior approval of the Audit Committee for all non-audit services proposed to be provided by the independent accountants. We review whether the provision of such services by the independent accountants would be compatible with the maintenance of PwC’s independence in the performance of its auditing functions for us.

The Audit Committee further amended its existing pre-approval policy in August 2003 for audit and non-audit services performed by Ingram Micro’s independent registered public accounting firm and has since such date, reviewed its policy on an annual basis. Unless a proposed service to be provided by Ingram Micro’s independent registered public accounting firm has received general pre-approval in accordance with the guidelines discussed below, it will require specific pre-approval by the Audit Committee. Any proposed services exceeding pre-approved fee levels will require additional pre-approval by the Audit Committee.

The annual audit services engagement terms and fees are subject to the specific pre-approval of the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee must approve any significant changes in terms, conditions and fees resulting from changes in audit scope, company structure or other matters. Additional fees in excess of 10% of the amount initially approved in connection with the annual audit services require additional pre-approval by the Audit Committee. With respect to non-audit services, the Audit Committee has concluded that the provision of such services does not impair Ingram Micro’s independent registered public accounting firm’s independence, and the Audit Committee has provided (and the Audit Committee will annually review and provide) general pre-approved categories of services that may be provided by Ingram Micro’s independent registered public accounting firm without obtaining specific pre-approval for each specific non-audit assignment.

The term of any pre-approval is generally twelve months from the date of pre-approval, unless the Audit Committee specifically provides for a different period. The Audit Committee may revise the list of general pre-approved services from time to time, based on subsequent determinations. The Audit Committee may delegate pre-approval authority to one or more of its members. The member or members to whom such authority is delegated shall report any pre-approval decisions to the Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting. In addition, Ingram Micro’s management reports to the Audit Committee on a periodic basis, services actually provided by Ingram Micro’s independent registered public accounting firm pursuant to the Audit Committee’s pre-approval policy.

All audit and non-audit services described above were provided pursuant to pre-approval policies of the Audit Committee.
