EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

THIS EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT (hereinafter the “Agreement”) between ScanSource, Inc., a South Carolina corporation (hereinafter, the “Company”), and Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx (hereinafter, “Executive”) is effective as of June 20, 2007 (hereinafter the “Effective Date”).

BACKGROUND

The Company desires to employ Executive in the position stated on Exhibit A, and Executive is willing to serve in such capacity, in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and of the mutual covenants and agreements set forth herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

1. Employment. On the Effective Date, Executive shall hereby be employed in the capacity indicated above and shall have the responsibilities commensurate with such position as shall be assigned to him by the Board of Directors or the CEO of the Company.

2. Employment Period. Unless earlier terminated herein in accordance with Section 5 hereof, Executive’s employment shall be for a term (the “Employment Period”), beginning on the Effective Date and ending on June 30, 2009, the Employment Period End Date.

3. Extent of Service. During the Employment Period, and excluding any periods of vacation and sick leave to which Executive is entitled, Executive agrees to devote his business time, attention, skill and efforts exclusively to the faithful performance of his duties hereunder; provided, however, that it shall not be a violation of this Agreement for Executive to (i) devote reasonable periods of time to charitable and community activities and, with the approval of the Company, industry or professional activities, and/or (ii) manage personal business interests and investments, so long as such activities do not interfere with the performance of Executive’s responsibilities under this Agreement.

4. Compensation and Benefits.

(a) Base Salary. During the Employment Period, the Company will pay to Executive a base salary at the rate specified on Exhibit A to this Agreement (“Base Salary”), less normal withholdings, payable in equal monthly or more frequent installments as are customary under the Company’s payroll practices from time to time. The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company shall review Executive’s Base Salary annually and in its sole discretion, subject to approval of the Board of Directors of the Company, may increase Executive’s Base Salary from year to year. The annual review of Executive’s Base Salary by the Board of Directors of the Company will consider, among other things, Executive’s own

performance and the Company’s performance. In the event Executive becomes eligible during the Employment Period to receive benefits under the Company’s short-term disability policy, the Company shall continue to pay Executive’s Base Salary, provided, however, that Executive’s Base Salary during such period shall be reduced by any amounts Executive receives under the short-term disability policy.

(b) Incentive Compensation, Savings and Retirement Plans. During the Employment Period, Executive shall be entitled to participate in all deferred compensation, savings and retirement plans, practices, policies and programs applicable to staff officers of the Company (“Peer Executives”). Without limiting the foregoing, during the Employment Period, Executive will be eligible to receive certain incentive compensation (“Incentive Compensation”) based on financial and/or performance criteria established from year to year by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company, as specified on Exhibit A to this Agreement.

(c) Welfare Benefit Plans. During the Employment Period, Executive and Executive’s eligible dependents shall be eligible for participation in the welfare benefit plans, practices, policies and programs provided by the Company which may include medical prescription, dental, disability, employee life, group life, accidental death and travel accident insurance plans and programs) (“Welfare Plans”) to the extent applicable generally to Peer Executives. Bi-weekly payroll contributions will be required by Executive. The Company reserves the right, in its sole discretion to modify, change, or eliminate its Welfare Plans.

(d) Expenses. During the Employment Period, Executive shall be entitled to receive reimbursement for all reasonable expenses incurred by Executive in accordance with the policies, practices and procedures of the Company to the extent applicable generally to Peer Executives.

(e) Fringe Benefits. During the Employment Period, Executive shall be entitled to fringe benefits in accordance with the plans, practices, programs and policies of the Company in effect for Peer Executives.

(f) Vacation. During each fiscal year during the Employment Period, Executive will be entitled to the number of days of paid vacation specified on Exhibit A to this Agreement. Executive may take such vacation days at the time or times Executive reasonably requests, subject to the prior approval of the person specified on Exhibit A to this Agreement. Unused vacation time does not carry over to the next fiscal year and is not paid upon termination of employment.

5. Termination of Employment.

(a) Death, Retirement or Disability. Executive’s employment shall terminate automatically upon Executive’s death or Retirement during the Employment Period. For purposes of this Agreement, “Retirement” shall mean normal retirement as defined in the Company’s then-current retirement plan, or if there is no such retirement plan, “Retirement” shall

- 2 -

mean voluntary termination after age 65 with ten years of service. If the Company determines that the Disability of Executive has occurred during the Employment Period (pursuant to the definition of Disability set forth below), it may give to Executive written notice of its intention to terminate Executive’s employment. In such event, Executive’s employment with the Company shall terminate effective on the 30th day after receipt of such written notice by Executive (the “Disability Effective Date”), provided that, within the 30 days after such receipt, Executive shall not have returned to full-time performance of Executive’s duties. For purposes of this Agreement, “Disability” shall mean a mental or physical disability as determined by the Board of Directors of the Company in accordance with standards and procedures similar to those under the Company’s employee long-term disability plan, if any. At any time that the Company does not maintain such a long-term disability plan, “Disability” shall mean the inability of Executive, as determined by the Board, to perform the essential functions of his regular duties and responsibilities, with or without reasonable accommodation, due to a medically determinable physical or mental condition which has lasted (or can reasonably be expected to last) for twelve workweeks in any twelve-month period. At the request of Executive or his personal representative, the Board’s determination that the Disability of Executive has occurred shall be certified by two physicians mutually agreed upon by Executive, or his personal representative, and the Company. Failing such independent certification (if so requested by Executive), Executive’s termination shall be deemed a termination by the Company without Cause and not a termination by reason of his Disability.

(b) Termination by the Company. The Company may terminate Executive’s employment during the Employment Period with or without Cause. For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” shall mean:

(i) The failure of Executive to satisfactorily perform Executive’s duties with the Company (other than any such failure resulting from incapacity due to physical or mental illness), after a written demand for satisfactory performance is delivered to Executive by the Board of Directors or CEO of the Company, which specifically identifies the manner in which the Board or the CEO believes that Executive has not satisfactorily performed Executive’s duties. The decision of whether Executive has satisfactorily performed his duties with the Company is in the discretion of the Company; or

(ii) Engaging in unethical or illegal conduct or gross misconduct that is materially injurious to the Company, whether financially or otherwise.

(c) Termination by Executive. Executive’s employment may be terminated by Executive for Good Reason or no reason. For purposes of this Agreement, “Good Reason” shall mean:

(i) without the consent of Executive, the assignment to Executive of any duties materially inconsistent for a member of the management team, excluding for this purpose an isolated, insubstantial, and inadvertent action not taken in bad faith and which is remedied by the Company promptly after receipt of notice thereof given by Executive;

- 3 -

(ii) a reduction by the Company in Executive’s Base Salary as in effect on the Effective Date or as the same may be increased from time to time;

(iii) the failure by the Company (a) to continue in effect any compensation plan in which Executive participates as of the Effective Date that is material to Executive’s total compensation, unless an equitable arrangement (embodied in an ongoing substitute or alternative plan) has been made with respect to such plan, or (b) to continue Executive’s participation therein (or in such substitute or alternative plan) on a basis not materially less favorable in terms of the amount of benefits provided;

(iv) the Company’s requiring Executive, without his consent, to be based at any office or location other than in Greenville County, South Carolina;

(v) any failure by the Company to comply with and satisfy Section 12(c) of this Agreement;

(vi) the material breach of this Agreement by the Company; or

(vii) if no new employment agreement has been entered into by Executive and the Company or its successor after or in contemplation of a Change in Control, termination by Executive for any reason or no reason during the 60-day period beginning on the six-month anniversary of a Change in Control.

Good Reason shall not include Executive’s death or Disability. The Company shall have an opportunity to cure any claimed event of Good Reason (other than under clauses (v) or (vii) above) within 30 days of notice from Executive and the Board’s good faith determination of cure shall be binding. The Company shall notify Executive of the timely cure of any claimed event of Good Reason and the manner in which such cure was effected, and any Notice of Termination delivered by Executive based on such claimed Good Reason shall be deemed withdrawn and shall not be effective to terminate the Agreement.

(d) Notice of Termination. Any termination of Executive’s employment by the Company or by Executive shall be communicated by Notice of Termination to the other party hereto given in accordance with Section 13(f) of this Agreement. For purposes of this Agreement, a “Notice of Termination” means a written notice which (i) indicates the specific termination provision in this Agreement relied upon, including whether such termination is for Cause or Good Reason, (ii) if such termination is for Cause or Good Reason, sets forth in reasonable detail the facts and circumstances claimed to provide a basis for termination of Executive’s employment under the provision so indicated, and (iii) specifies the termination date. The failure by Executive or the Company to set forth in the Notice of Termination any fact or circumstance which contributes to a showing of Good Reason or Cause shall not waive any right of Executive or the Company, respectively, hereunder or preclude Executive or the Company, respectively, from asserting such fact or circumstance in enforcing Executive’s or the Company’s rights hereunder.

- 4 -

(e) Date of Termination. “Date of Termination” means the date specified in the Notice of Termination or, if Executive’s employment is terminated by reason of death, Retirement or Disability, the date of death or Retirement or the Disability Effective Date, as the case may be.

6. Obligations of the Company upon Termination.

(a) Termination by Executive for Good Reason; Termination by Company Other Than for Cause, Disability or In Connection with Change of Control. If, during the Employment Period, the Company shall terminate Executive’s employment: (i) for other than for Cause or Disability; (ii) Executive shall terminate employment for Good Reason within a period of 30 days after the occurrence of the event giving rise to Good Reason; (iii) if Executive’s employment is terminated within 12 months after, or otherwise in contemplation of, a Change in Control, as defined in Exhibit C, and Executive’s employment is so terminated other than for Cause or Disability; or (iv) if within 60 days after the Employment Period End Date, the Company (for reasons other than Cause or Disability) terminates the employment of Executive, and, with respect to the payments and benefits described in clauses (i)(B) and (ii) below, only if Executive executes a Release in substantially the form of Exhibit B hereto (the “Release”):

(i) within 30 days after the later of (a) Date of Termination or (b) the date Executive executes the Release (or such longer period as may be required for the Company to determine the amount of earned unpaid Incentive Compensation under any program which is dependent on quantifying quarterly financial results), the Company shall pay to Executive in a lump sum in cash the aggregate of the following amounts:

(A) the sum of (1) Executive’s Base Salary earned through the Date of Termination to the extent not theretofore paid, and (2) unpaid Incentive Compensation earned to the Date of Termination; (the sum of the amounts described in clauses (1) and (2) shall be hereinafter referred to as the “Accrued Obligations”). For purposes of determining the amount of unpaid Incentive Compensation earned in the event the Date of Termination is in the middle of a fiscal quarter, the Company shall pro-rate and reduce the amount it determines would have been earned for the complete quarter, based on the ratio of the number of days the Executive was employed in the quarter over the number of actual days in the quarter; and

(B) an amount equal to a multiple (the “Severance Multiple”), times the highest combined annual Base Salary and Incentive Compensation earned by Executive from the Company, including any such amounts earned but deferred, in the last three fiscal years prior to the Date of Termination (the “Severance Benefits”). The Severance Multiple shall be one (1).

(C) for up to 12 months after Date of Termination, the Company will reimburse Executive for COBRA payments made by Executive which are in excess of the monthly rates paid by active employees, with respect to medical and dental insurance benefits, but only until such time as Executive is eligible to receive similar benefits under another employer-provided or group plan (which plan may be the plan of the Executive’s new employer or his spouse’s employer.)

- 5 -

(iii) to the extent not theretofore paid or provided, the Company shall timely pay or provide to Executive any other amounts or benefits required to be paid or provided or which Executive is eligible to receive under any plan, program, policy or practice or contract or agreement of the Company (such other amounts and benefits shall be hereinafter referred to as the “Other Benefits”) only if such Other Benefits were earned as of the Date of Termination.

(b) Death. If Executive’s employment is terminated by reason of Executive’s death during the Employment Period, this Agreement shall terminate without further obligations to Executive’s legal representatives under this Agreement, other than for payment of Accrued Obligations and the timely payment or provision of Other Benefits. Accrued Obligations shall be paid to Executive’s estate or beneficiary, as applicable, in a lump sum in cash within 30 days of the Date of Termination. With respect to the provision of Other Benefits, the term Other Benefits as used in this Section 6(b) shall include, without limitation, and Executive’s estate and/or beneficiaries shall be entitled to receive, benefits under such plans, programs, practices and policies relating to death benefits, if any, as are applicable to Executive on the date of his death.

(c) Disability. If Executive’s employment is terminated by reason of Executive’s Disability during the Employment Period, this Agreement shall terminate without further obligations to Executive, other than for payment of Accrued Obligations and the timely payment or provision of Other Benefits. Accrued Obligations shall be paid to Executive in a lump sum in cash within 30 days of the Date of Termination. With respect to the provision of Other Benefits, the term Other Benefits as used in this Section 6(c) shall include, without limitation, and Executive shall be entitled after the Disability Effective Date to receive, disability and other benefits under such plans, programs, practices and policies relating to disability, if any, as are applicable to Executive and his family on the Date of Termination.

(d) Retirement. If Executive’s employment is terminated by reason of Executive’s Retirement during the Employment Period, this Agreement shall terminate without further obligations to Executive, other than for payment of Accrued Obligations and the timely payment or provision of Other Benefits. Accrued Obligations shall be paid to Executive in a lump sum in cash within 30 days of the Date of Termination. With respect to the provision of Other Benefits, the term Other Benefits as used in this Section 6(d) shall include, without limitation, and Executive shall be entitled after the Date of Termination to receive, retirement and other benefits under such plans, programs, practices and policies relating to retirement, if any, as applicable to Executive on the Date of Termination.

(e) Cause or Voluntary Termination without Good Reason. If Executive’s employment is terminated for Cause during the Employment Period, or if Executive voluntarily terminates employment during the Employment Period without Good Reason, this Agreement shall terminate without further obligations to Executive, other than for payment of Accrued Obligations.

- 6.-

(f) Normal Expiration of Employment Period. If Executive’s employment is terminated due to the normal expiration of the Employment Period or is terminated within 60 days after the Employment Period End Date (for reasons other than Cause or Disability), this Agreement shall terminate without further obligations to Executive, other than for payment of Accrued Obligations, Severance Benefits and the timely payment or provision of Other Benefits. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Company is not required to provide notice if the Agreement will not be renewed or if a new employment agreement will not be offered in a situation where the Executive will remain an employee of the Company in the same position or in a management capacity without an employment agreement but as an at-will employee. In that instance, he or she remains subject to the Restrictions on Conduct described in section 11 herein.

7. Non-exclusivity of Rights. Nothing in this Agreement shall prevent or limit Executive’s continuing or future participation in any plan, program, policy or practice provided by the Company and for which Executive may qualify, nor, subject to Section 13(d), shall anything herein limit or otherwise affect such rights as Executive may have under any contract or agreement with the Company. Amounts which are vested benefits or which Executive is otherwise entitled to receive under any plan, policy, practice or program or any contract or agreement with the Company at or subsequent to the Date of Termination shall be payable in accordance with such plan, policy, practice or program or contract or agreement except as explicitly modified by this Agreement.

8. Mandatory Reduction of Payments in Certain Events.

(a) Anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, in the event it shall be determined that any benefit, payment or distribution by the Company to or for the benefit of Executive (whether paid or payable or distributed or distributable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise) (a “Payment”) would be subject to the excise tax (the “Excise Tax”) imposed by Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), then, prior to the making of any Payment to Executive, a calculation shall be made comparing (i) the net benefit to Executive of all Payments after payment of the Excise Tax, to (ii) the net benefit to Executive if the Payment had been limited to the extent necessary to avoid being subject to the Excise Tax. If the amount calculated under (i) above is less than the amount calculated under (ii) above, then the Payments shall be limited to the extent necessary to avoid being subject to the Excise Tax (the “Reduced Amount”). In that event, Executive shall direct which Payments are to be modified or reduced.

(b) The determination of whether an Excise Tax would be imposed, the amount of such Excise Tax, and the calculation of the amounts referred to in Section 8(a)(i) and (ii) above shall be made by the Company’s regular independent accounting firm at the expense of the Company or, at the election and expense of Executive, another nationally recognized independent accounting firm (the “Accounting Firm”) which shall provide detailed supporting calculations. Any determination by the Accounting Firm shall be binding upon the Company and Executive. As a result of the uncertainty in the application of Section 4999 of the Code at the time of the initial determination by the Accounting Firm hereunder, it is possible that Payments which Executive was entitled to, but did not receive pursuant to Section 8(a), could have been made

- 7 -

without the imposition of the Excise Tax (“Underpayment”). In such event, the Accounting Firm shall determine the amount of the Underpayment that has occurred and any such Underpayment shall be promptly paid by the Company to or for the benefit of Executive.

(c) In the event that the provisions of Code Section 280G and 4999 or any successor provisions are repealed without succession, this Section 8 shall be of no further force or effect.

9. Costs of Enforcement. Subject to Section 8(b), each party hereto shall pay its own costs and expenses incurred in enforcing or establishing its rights hereunder, including, without limitation, attorneys’ fees, whether the suit be brought or not, and whether or not incurred in trial, bankruptcy, or appellate proceedings.

10. Representations and Warranties. Executive hereby represents and warrants to the Company that Executive is not a party to, or otherwise subject to, any covenant not to compete with any person or entity, and Executive’s execution of this Agreement and performance of his obligations hereunder will not violate the terms or conditions of any contract or obligation, written or oral, between Executive and any other person or entity.

11. Restrictions on Conduct of Executive.

(a) General. Executive and the Company understand and agree that the purpose of the provisions of this Section 11 is to protect legitimate business interests of the Company, as more fully described below, and is not intended to eliminate Executive’s post-employment competition with the Company per se, nor is it intended to impair or infringe upon Executive’s right to work, earn a living, or acquire and possess property from the fruits of his labor. Executive hereby acknowledges that Executive has received good and valuable consideration for the post-employment restrictions set forth in this Section 11 in the form of compensation and benefits provided herein and the grant of stock options from time to time by the Company. Executive hereby further acknowledges that the post-employment restrictions set forth in this Section 11 are reasonable and that they do not, and will not, unduly impair his ability to earn a living after the termination of this Agreement.

In addition, the parties acknowledge: (A) that Executive’s services under this Agreement require special expertise and talent in the provision of Competitive Services and that Executive will have substantial contacts with customers, suppliers, advertisers and vendors of the Company; (B) that pursuant to this Agreement, Executive will be placed in a position of trust and responsibility and he will have access to a substantial amount of Confidential Information and Trade Secrets and that the Company is placing him in such position and giving him access to such information in reliance upon his agreement not to compete with the Company during the Restricted Period; (C) that due to his management duties, Executive will be the repository of a substantial portion of the goodwill of the Company and would have an unfair advantage in competing with the Company; (D) that due to Executive’s special experience and talent, the loss of Executive’s services to the Company under this Agreement cannot reasonably or adequately be compensated solely by damages in an action at law; (E) that Executive is capable of competing with the Company; and (F) that Executive is capable of obtaining gainful, lucrative and desirable employment that does not violate the restrictions contained in this Agreement.

- 8 -

Therefore, subject to the limitations of reasonableness imposed by law, Executive shall be subject to the restrictions set forth in this Section 11.

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, Executive shall not be restricted from disclosing or using Confidential Information that is required to be disclosed by law, court order or other legal process; provided, however, that in the event disclosure is required by law, Executive shall provide the Company with prompt notice of such requirement so that the Company may seek an appropriate protective order prior to any such required disclosure by Executive.

(ii) Nonsolicitation of Protected Employees. Executive understands and agrees that the relationship between the Company and each of its Protected Employees constitutes a valuable asset of the Company and may not be converted to Executive’s own use. Accordingly, Executive hereby agrees that during the Restricted Period Executive shall not directly or indirectly on Executive’s own behalf or as a Principal or Representative of any Person or otherwise solicit or induce any Protected Employee to terminate his or her employment relationship with the Company or to enter into employment with any other Person.

(iii) Restriction on Relationships with Protected Customers.

Executive

- 11 -

acknowledges that in the performance of his duties for the Company he is charged with operating on the Company’s behalf throughout the Restricted Territory and he hereby acknowledges, therefore, that the Restricted Territory is reasonable.

(d) Enforcement of Restrictive Covenants.

(i) Rights and Remedies Upon Breach. In the event Executive breaches, or threatens to commit a breach of, any of the provisions of the Restrictive Covenants, the Company shall have the following rights and remedies, which shall be independent of any others and severally enforceable, and shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other rights and remedies available to the Company at law or in equity:

(A) the right and remedy to enjoin, preliminarily and permanently, Executive from violating or threatening to violate the Restrictive Covenants and to have the Restrictive Covenants specifically enforced by any court of competent jurisdiction, it being agreed that any breach or threatened breach of the Restrictive Covenants would cause irreparable injury to the Company and that money damages would not provide an adequate remedy to the Company; and

(B) the right and remedy to require Executive to account for and pay over to the Company all compensation, profits, monies, accruals, increments or other benefits derived or received by Executive as the result of any transactions constituting a breach of the Restrictive Covenants.

(ii) Severability of Covenants. Executive acknowledges and agrees that the Restrictive Covenants are reasonable and valid in time and scope and in all other respects. The covenants set forth in this Agreement shall be considered and construed as separate and independent covenants. Should any part or provision of any covenant be held invalid, void or unenforceable in any court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity, voidness or unenforceability shall not render invalid, void or unenforceable any other part or provision of this Agreement. If any portion of the foregoing provisions is found to be invalid or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction because its duration, the territory, the definition of activities or the definition of information covered is considered to be invalid or unreasonable in scope, the invalid or unreasonable term shall be redefined, or a new enforceable term provided, such that the intent of the Company and Executive in agreeing to the provisions of this Agreement will not be impaired and the provision in question shall be enforceable to the fullest extent of the applicable laws.

(iii) Reformation. The parties hereunder agree that it is their intention that the Restrictive Covenants be enforced in accordance with their terms to the maximum extent possible under applicable law. The parties further agree that, in the event any court of competent jurisdiction shall find that any provision hereof is not enforceable in accordance with its terms, the court shall reform the Restrictive Covenants such that they shall be enforceable to the maximum extent permissible at law.

- 12 -

(iv) Elective Right of the Company. In the event that Executive challenges the enforceability of the Restrictive Covenants (or asserts an affirmative defense to an action seeking to enforce the Restrictive Covenants) based on an argument that the Restrictive Covenants are (x) not enforceable as a matter of law, (y) unreasonable in geographical scope or duration or (z) void as against public policy, the Company shall have the right to cease making the payments required under Section 6 above and, upon demand, to have Executive repay, within 10 business days of any such demand, any such payments already made. Any right afforded to, or exercised by, the Company hereunder shall in no way affect the enforceability of the Restrictive Covenants or any other right of the Company hereunder.

12. Assignment and Successors.

(a) This Agreement is personal to Executive and without the prior written consent of the Company shall not be assignable by Executive otherwise than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Executive’s legal representatives.

(b) This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Company and its successors and assigns.

(c) The Company will require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all or substantially all of the business and/or assets of the Company to assume expressly and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company would be required to perform it if no such succession had taken place. As used in this Agreement, “Company” shall mean the Company as herein before defined and any successor to its business and/or assets as aforesaid which assumes and agrees to perform this Agreement by operation of law, or otherwise.

13. Miscellaneous.

(a) Waiver.

EXHIBIT A to EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

Executive: R. Xxxxx Xxxxxxxx

Title: President Worldwide Operations

Base Salary: $300,000.00 annualized

Variable Compensation earned in fiscal year 2008 shall be based on the following:

The amount of variable pay is determined based on ScanSource, Inc. consolidated operating income. The amount earned is 0.35% of operating income (“target variable compensation”). The actual amount may be more or less depending on actual operating income achieved.

The amounts earned will be paid to Executive in monthly installments with each monthly installment being equal to Seventy percent (70%) of the incentive bonus computed using the operating income determined by the financial statement prepared for each month during the term of this Agreement. The balance of the Incentive Bonus shall be paid with respect to each fiscal year immediately following the auditor’s approval of the release of the Company’s year-end earnings. The Company shall have no right of reimbursement in the event the amount advanced in monthly installments exceeds the incentive bonus as finally computed.

The amount of variable compensation will be calculated as follows:

• If return on invested capital (“ROIC”) is greater than or equal to 30%, variable compensation will equal 115% of target variable compensation

• If return on invested capital (“ROIC”) is at or between 25% and 29%, variable compensation will equal 110% of target variable compensation

• If return on invested capital (“ROIC”) is at or between 20% and 24%, variable compensation will equal 100% of target variable compensation

• If return on invested capital (“ROIC”) is less than 20%, variable compensation will equal 90% of target variable compensation

The Company’s calculation of operating income, return on invested capital, and variable compensation shall be conclusive and binding absent fraud or manifest or material error.

An Incentive Compensation plan for fiscal year 2009 shall be determined and communicated in writing no later than July 31, 2008.
