AWARD CERTIFICATE TERMS AND CONDITIONS

1.Grant of Award. ScanSource, Inc. (the “Company”) hereby grants to the Participant named on Page 1 hereof (the “Participant”), subject to the restrictions and the other terms and conditions set forth in the ScanSource, Inc. 2013 Long-Term Incentive Plan, as it may be amended and/or restated (the “Plan”), and in this Award Certificate, a Restricted Stock Unit Award (the “Award”) for the number of Shares indicated on Page 1 hereof of the Company’s common stock. For the purposes herein, the Shares subject to the Award are units that will be reflected in a book account maintained by the Company and that will be settled in shares of Stock if and only to the extent permitted under the Plan and this Award Certificate. Prior to issuance of any Shares upon vesting of the Award, the Award shall represent an unsecured obligation of the Company, payable (if at all) only from the Company’s general assets. Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Plan.

2. Restrictions; Forfeiture. The Award and the underlying Shares are subject to the following restrictions. No right or interest of the Participant in the Award, to the extent restricted, may be pledged, encumbered or hypothecated to or in favor of any party other than the Company or an Affiliate or shall be subject to any lien, obligation or liability of the Participant to any other party other than the Company or an Affiliate. Except as otherwise provided in the Plan, the Award shall not be transferable (including by sale, assignment, pledge or hypothecation) other than by will or the laws of intestate succession. Prior to vesting, the Shares subject to the Award may not be sold, transferred, exchanged, assigned, pledged, hypothecated or otherwise encumbered. Except as may be otherwise provided in the Plan or this Award Certificate, if the Participant’s employment with the Company terminates for any reason (whether by the Company or the Participant and whether voluntary or involuntary) other than as set forth in paragraphs (b) or (c) of Section 3 hereof, then the Participant shall forfeit all of the Participant’s right, title and interest in and to the Award and the Shares to the extent the Award (and corresponding Shares) were not vested as of the date the Participant’s Continuous Status as a Participant terminates. The restrictions imposed under this section shall apply to all Shares or other securities issued with respect to Shares hereunder in connection with any merger, reorganization, consolidation, recapitalization, stock dividend or other change in corporate structure affecting the Stock of the Company.

3. Expiration and Termination of Restrictions. The restrictions imposed under Section 2 will expire on the earliest to occur of the following (the period prior to such expiration being referred to herein as the “Restricted Period”):

(a) With respect to such ratable portion of the Shares as is specified on page 1 hereof, on each of the three annual vesting installment dates as specified on page 1 hereof, provided the Participant is still employed by the Company on each respective anniversary of the Grant Date and has been employed since the Grant Date; or

(b) As to all of the Shares, upon the termination of the Participant’s employment due to death, Disability or a separation from service (as defined under Code Section 409A) due to Retirement; or

(c) As to all of the Shares, in the event of a Change in Control, as follows:

(i) To the extent that the successor or surviving company in the Change in Control event does not assume or substitute for the Award (or in which the Company is the ultimate parent corporation and does not continue the Award) on substantially similar terms or with substantially equivalent economic benefits (as determined by the Committee) as Awards outstanding under the Plan immediately prior to the Change in Control event, any restrictions, including but not limited to the restriction period, performance period and/or performance criteria applicable to the Award shall be deemed to have been met, and the Award shall become fully vested, earned and payable to the fullest extent of the original grant of the Award.

(ii) Further, in the event that the Award is substituted, assumed or continued as provided in Section 3(c)(i) herein, the Award will nonetheless become vested in full if the employment or service of the Participant is terminated by the Company within six months before (in which case vesting shall not occur until the effective date of the Change in Control) or one year after the effective date of a Change in Control if such termination of employment or service (A) is by the Company not for Cause or (B) is by the Participant for Good Reason.

(d) For clarification, for the purposes of this Section 3, “Retirement,” “Cause” and “Good Reason” shall have the meaning given such term in the Plan, and “Disability” shall have the meaning given such term in the Plan, except that the phrase “12 months” shall be replaced by the phrase “six months”.

4. Settlement of Award; Delivery of Shares. No certificate or certificates for the Shares shall be issued at the time of grant of the Award. A certificate or certificates for the Shares underlying the Award (or, in the case of uncertificated Shares, other written evidence of ownership in accordance with applicable laws) shall be issued in the name of the Participant (or his beneficiary) only in the event, and to the extent, that the Award has vested. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following provisions shall apply: (a) except as provided under Section 4(b) herein or to the extent otherwise required or permitted under Code Section 409A, any Shares or other benefits payable pursuant to the Award shall, upon vesting of the Award, be distributed to the Participant (or his beneficiary) no later than the later of (i) the 15th day of the third month following the end of the Participant’s first taxable year in which the amount is no longer subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture, or (ii) the 15th day of the third month following the end of the Company’s first taxable year in which the amount is no longer subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture; and (b) in the event that the Participant is subject to taxation under Code Section 409A and the Restriction Period ends (and the Award vests) due to a separation from service (as defined under Code Section 409A) upon Retirement, then the Shares shall be delivered to the Participant (or his beneficiary) within ninety (90) calendar days after the end of the Restriction Period (provided that if such ninety (90)-day period begins in one calendar year and ends in another, the Participant (or his beneficiaries) shall not have the right to designate the calendar year of payment), and, provided, further, if the Participant is or may be a “specified employee” (as defined under Code Section 409A), and the distribution is due to separation from service, then such distribution shall be subject to delay as provided in Section 18.22 of the Plan (or any successor provision thereto).

5. Voting and Dividend Rights. The Participant shall not be deemed to be the holder of any Shares subject to the Award and shall not have any dividend rights, voting rights or other rights as a shareholder unless and until (and only to the extent that) the Award has vested and certificates for such Shares have been issued to him (or, in the case of uncertificated shares, other written evidence of ownership in accordance with applicable laws shall have been provided).

6. No Right of Continued Employment or to Future Awards. Nothing in this Award Certificate shall interfere with or limit in any way the right of the Company or any Affiliate to terminate the Participant’s employment or service at any time, nor confer upon the Participant any right to continue in the employ or service of the Company or any Affiliate. The grant of the Award does not create any obligation to grant further awards.

7. Tax Matters. The Participant will, no later than the date as of which any amount related to the Shares first becomes includable in the Participant’s gross income for federal income tax purposes, pay to the Company, or make other arrangements satisfactory to the Committee regarding payment of, any federal, state, local and foreign taxes (including any Federal Insurance Contributions Act (FICA) taxes) required by law to be withheld with respect to such amount. The withholding requirement may be satisfied, in whole or in part, unless the Committee determines otherwise, by withholding from this Award Shares having a Fair Market Value on the date of withholding equal to the minimum amount (and not any greater amount) required to be withheld for tax purposes, all in accordance with such procedures as the Committee establishes. The obligations of the Company under this Award Certificate will be conditional on such payment or arrangements, and the Company, or, where applicable, its Affiliates, will, to the extent permitted by law, have the right to deduct any such taxes from any payment of any kind otherwise due to the Participant. The Participant acknowledges that the Company has made no warranties or representations to the Participant with respect to the legal, tax or investment consequences (including but not limited to income tax consequences) related to the grant of the Award or receipt or disposition of the Shares (or any other benefit), and the Participant is in no manner relying on the Company or its representatives for legal, tax or investment advice related to the Award or the Shares. The Participant acknowledges that there may be adverse tax consequences upon the grant of the Award and/or the acquisition or disposition of the Shares (or other benefit) subject to the Award and that the Participant has been advised that he should consult with his or her own attorney, accountant and/or tax advisor regarding the transactions contemplated by the Award and this Award Certificate. The Participant also acknowledges that the Company has no responsibility to take or refrain from taking any actions in order to achieve a certain tax result for the Participant.

A beneficiary, legal guardian, legal representative, or other person claiming any rights hereunder is subject to all terms and conditions of this Award Certificate and the Plan and to any additional restrictions deemed necessary or appropriate by the Committee.
