Re: SERP Credit

Dear Rick:

     The purpose of this letter is to recognize in a tangible, although
deferred, way the valuable service which you have been rendering, and are
expected to continue to render, to Pioneer-Standard Electronics Inc. (the
"Company"). Because you were hired in mid-career, it will be impossible under
the terms of the Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (the "SERP") maintained
by the Company for you to achieve a full service benefit by the time you
otherwise would be eligible to retire because eligibility for a full service
benefit under the SERP requires 15 years of "Continuous Service." Given the
valuable nature of your contributions to the Company and the level of your
responsibility at the Company, it is appropriate that arrangements be made to
overcome this inequity.

     For that reason, this letter is to provide that upon you remaining fully
employed with the Company until the later of age 55 or seven years of Continuous
Service as measured under the SERP, you will be considered to have 15 years of
Continuous Service for purposes of calculating your Accrued Annual Retirement
Benefit under the SERP. To the extent that the benefit calculated on the basis
of the foregoing Continuous Service credit is not payable under the SERP, it
will be a separate obligation of the Company payable in accordance with the
payment timing and other procedures of the SERP.

     If this provision is satisfactory to you, please sign, date and return a
copy of this letter to me at your earliest convenience. It will be effective
immediately upon your acceptance.

                                        Very truly yours,

                                        PIONEER-STANDARD ELECTRONICS, INC.

                                            Officer

Accepted and agreed to this 16th day
of April, 2002.
