These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by the Plan s management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. 5 In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for plan benefits of the Plan as of April 1, 1995 and April 2, 1994, and the changes in its net assets available for plan benefits for the years then ended, in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The accompanying supplemental schedules are presented to comply with the Department of Labor Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure Under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 and are not a required part of the basic financial statements. The supplemental schedules have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole. /s/ GRANT THORNTON LLP Houston, Texas July 6, 1995 4 6 KENT ELECTRONICS CORPORATION Tax-Deferred Savings and Retirement Plan and Trust STATEMENTS OF NET ASSETS AVAILABLE FOR PLAN BENEFITS April 1, 1995 and April 2, 1994 April 2, April 1, 1995 1994 ----------------------------------------------------------- ----------- Kent Electronics Equity Corporation Stock Common Money Mutual Stock Market Fund Investment Investment Investment Total Account Account Account Total ------------- ------------- ---------- ------------- ----------- ASSETS Cash equivalents $ 819,920 $ 27,569 $ 786,354 $ 5,997 $ 736,670 Employer and employee contribution receivables 204,121 130,537 23,656 49,928 163,256 Interfund receivables (payables) -

DESCRIPTION OF PLAN The following brief description of the Kent Electronics Corporation Tax-Deferred Savings and Retirement Plan and Trust (the Plan) is provided for general information purposes only. Participants should refer to the Plan agreement for more complete information. 1. GENERAL The Plan is a 401(k) savings and profit sharing plan which was adopted March 30, 1987 for officers and employees of Kent Electronics Corporation, Inc. and subsidiaries (the Company). The Plan is generally subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA). The purpose of the Plan is to allow participants to make elective contributions to be treated as deferred compensation for income tax purposes and for the Company to make elective contributions as a retirement vehicle for employees. 2. ELIGIBILITY Participation in the Plan is voluntary. Membership in the Plan is available to all employees of the Company who have attained the age of 21 years and have completed six months of service. 3. TRUSTEE The Smith Barney Trust Company has been designated and appointed as Trustee of the Plan for the plan years ended April 1, 1995 and April 2, 1994. The Trustee maintains all assets of the Plan in safekeeping. 4. EMPLOYEE ELECTIVE CONTRIBUTIONS Participants may contribute from 1% up to 12% of their earnings as elective contributions. The maximum amount of employee deferral contribution which may be made by a participant for tax years beginning in 1994 was limited to $9,240. Additionally, Internal Revenue Service regulations set a limit on the amount of compensation that highly- paid individuals can defer. 5. EMPLOYER THRIFT MATCHING CONTRIBUTIONS The Company shall contribute to the Plan s trust (as a thrift contribution) an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of the employee elective contribution up to a maximum of three percent (3%) of eligible compensation. Such contribution is invested in the Company common stock. 7 9 KENT ELECTRONICS CORPORATION Tax-Deferred Savings and Retirement Plan and Trust NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED April 1, 1995 and April 2, 1994 NOTE A - DESCRIPTION OF PLAN - CONTINUED 6. EMPLOYER PROFIT SHARING CONTRIBUTIONS The Company may contribute (from its net income or accumulated earnings and profit) to the Plan s trust such amount representing a profit sharing contribution, if any, as shall be determined by the Board of Directors of the employer. Such contribution is invested in the Company common stock. 7. ALLOCATIONS Each account that is in existence on the valuation date will be credited or charged with its pro rata portion of the income/loss of the Plan. Profit sharing contributions are to be allocated based upon the ratio of each participant s compensation to total compensation of all eligible participants. 8. VESTING SCHEDULE A participant s thrift matching and profit sharing accounts vested percentage will be determined in accordance with the following table: Years of Vesting Service Vested Percentage ------------------------ ----------------- Less than 2 years 0% 2 years 40% 3 years 60% 4 years 80% 5 years or more 100% Participant contributions vest immediately. 9. BENEFITS The Plan provides for various benefits to participants who have fulfilled or met the following requirements: Normal Retirement - Participants of the Plan who retire on or after their normal retirement dates (the first day of the month on or after which the participant reaches normal retirement age of 65) will receive the full value of their account in accordance with terms set forth in the Plan. 8 10 KENT ELECTRONICS CORPORATION Tax-Deferred Savings and Retirement Plan and Trust NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - CONTINUED April 1, 1995 and April 2, 1994 NOTE A - DESCRIPTION OF PLAN - CONTINUED Early Retirement - Participants who are fifty-five (55) or more years of age, but who have not attained normal retirement date and who have completed five (5) years of participation in the Plan may retire and receive the full value of their account in accordance with terms as set forth in the Plan. Disability - If participants become totally and permanently disabled, they will be paid the full value of their account in accordance with terms as set forth in the Plan. Death - If participants in the Plan die, their beneficiary will be paid the full value of their account in accordance with terms as set forth in the Plan. Termination - If participants terminate their employment with the Company for any reason other than retirement, total and permanent disability, or death, they will be paid the vested value of their account in accordance with terms as set forth in the Plan. 10. FORFEITURES Participant s forfeited amounts of employer thrift matching or profit sharing contributions due to termination are used to reduce subsequent employer contributions. 11. ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES Administrative expenses are paid directly by the Plan. 12. TOP-HEAVY PLAN PROVISIONS In the event the Plan should be Top-Heavy for any plan year, as defined by Internal Revenue Code Section 401(a), provisions are set forth in the Plan to remedy such condition. 13.

BASIS OF ACCOUNTING The accompanying financial statements are presented on the accrual basis of accounting. Investments held in the Plan are stated at their fair market value as reported by the Trustee. 2. DETERMINATION OF REALIZED AND UNREALIZED GAIN OR LOSS ON INVESTMENTS Unrealized appreciation or depreciation of fair market values of investments held at year end and gain or loss on sale of investments during the year are determined using the basis of the applicable investment at the beginning of the year or purchase price, if acquired during the year. 3. TERMINATION OF PLAN The Company expects to continue the Plan indefinitely, but reserves the right to change it from time to time, or to terminate it if necessary.
