CDW Corporation

Amended and Restated 2013 Long-Term Incentive Plan

Performance Share Unit Award Agreement

CDW Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), hereby grants to the individual (the “Holder”) named in the award notice attached hereto (the “Award Notice”) as of the date set forth in the Award Notice (the “Grant Date”), pursuant to the provisions of the CDW Corporation Amended and Restated 2013 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), a performance share unit award (the “Award”) with respect to the number of shares of the Company’s Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Stock”), set forth in the Award Notice, upon and subject to the restrictions, terms and conditions set forth in the Plan and this agreement (the “Agreement”). Capitalized terms not defined herein shall have the meanings specified in the Plan.

1.Award Subject to Acceptance of Agreement. The Award shall be null and void unless the Holder accepts this Agreement by executing the Award Notice in the space provided therefor and returning an original execution copy of the Award Notice to the Company (or electronically accepting this Agreement within the Holder’s stock plan account with the Company’s stock plan administrator according to the procedures then in effect).

2.Rights as a Stockholder. The Holder shall not be entitled to any privileges of ownership with respect to the shares of Stock subject to the Award unless and until, and only to the extent, such shares become vested pursuant to Section 3 hereof and the Holder becomes a stockholder of record with respect to such shares. As of each date on which the Company pays a cash dividend to record owners of shares of Stock (a “Dividend Date”), then the number of shares subject to the Award shall increase by (i) the product of the total number of shares subject to the Award immediately prior to such Dividend Date multiplied by the dollar amount of the cash dividend paid per share of Stock by the Company on such Dividend Date, divided by (ii) the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on such Dividend Date. Any such additional shares shall be subject to the same vesting conditions and payment terms set forth herein as the shares to which they relate.

3.Restriction Period and Vesting.

3.1.Performance-Based Vesting Conditions. Subject to the remainder of this Section 3, the Stock shall vest pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the Plan based on the achievement of the performance goals set forth in the Award Notice over the performance period as set forth in the Award Notice (the “Performance Period”), provided that that the Holder remains in continuous employment with the Company through the end of the Performance Period.   Attainment of the performance goals shall be determined and certified by the Committee in writing prior to the settlement of the Award.

3.2. Termination of Employment

(a)Termination due to Retirement, Death or Disability. If the Holder’s employment with the Company terminates prior to the end of the Performance Period and prior to a Change in Control by reason of the Holder’s Retirement, death or a termination by the Company due to Disability, the Performance Period shall continue through the last day thereof and the Holder shall be entitled to a prorated Award, provided that the Holder has continuously complied with the Restrictive Covenants. Such prorated Award shall be equal to the number of shares earned at the end of the Performance Period based on the actual performance during the Performance Period multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which shall equal the number of full months in the Performance Period during which the Holder was employed by the Company and the denominator of which shall equal 36.

(b)Termination other than due to Retirement, Death or Disability. If the Holder’s employment with the Company terminates prior to the end of the Performance Period and prior to a Change in Control by reason of (i) the Company’s termination of the Holder’s employment for any reason other than death or Disability or (ii) the Holder’s resignation for any reason other than Retirement, then the Award shall be immediately forfeited by the Holder and cancelled by the Company.

3.3. Change in Control.

(a)Satisfaction of Performance Goals. If a Change in Control occurs prior to the 24-month anniversary of the first day of the Performance Period, the performance goals set forth in Section 3.1 shall be deemed to have been satisfied at the target level. If the Change in Control occurs on or after the 24-month anniversary of the first day of the Performance Period, the number of shares of Stock earned pursuant to Section 3.1 shall be based on the projected level of performance through the end of the Performance Period, as determined by the Committee prior to the date of the Change in Control based on performance through the date of such determination. If the Change in Control occurs after the date on which the Participant’s employment is

1

terminated by reason of death, Disability or Retirement, pursuant to Section 3.2(a), the number of shares earned for purposes of such section shall be determined as of the date of the Change in Control in accordance with this Section 3.3(a) and shall be settled within 70 days following such Change in Control.

(b)Settlement of Award Not Assumed. In the event of a Change in Control prior to the end of the Performance Period pursuant to which the Award is not effectively assumed or continued by the surviving or acquiring corporation in such Change in Control (as determined by the Board or Committee, with appropriate adjustments to the number and kind of shares, in each case, that preserve the value of the shares subject to the Award and other material terms and conditions of the outstanding Award  as in effect immediately prior to the Change in Control), the Award shall vest as of the date of the Change in Control based on the performance level determined in accordance with Section 3.3(a) and shall be settled in cash within 70 days following the Change in Control.

(c)Settlement of Award Assumed. In the event of a Change in Control prior to the end of the Performance Period pursuant to which the Award is effectively assumed or continued by the surviving or acquiring corporation in such Change in Control (as determined by the Board or Committee, with appropriate adjustments to the number and kind of shares, in each case, that preserve the value of the shares subject to the Award and other material terms and conditions of the outstanding Award  as in effect immediately prior to the Change in Control) and (i) the Holder remains continuously employed through the end of the Performance Period, (ii) the Company terminates the Holder’s employment without Cause within 24 months following such Change in Control and the Holder executes and does not revoke a waiver and release of claims in the form prescribed by the Company within 60 days after the date of such termination or (iii) the Holder’s employment terminates due to death, Disability or Retirement following such Change in Control, in any such case, the Award shall vest based on the performance level determined in accordance with Section 3.3(a) hereof and shall be settled within 70 days following the end of the Performance Period or, if earlier, the Holder’s termination of employment.  In the case of a termination pursuant to clause (ii) of this Section 3.3(c) (termination without Cause), the Award shall be paid in full, and in the case of a termination pursuant to clause (iii) of this Section 3.3(c) (death, Disability or Retirement), the Award shall be prorated in accordance with, and subject to the terms of, Section 3.2(a). If, following a Change in Control, the Holder experiences a termination of employment other than as set forth in this Section 3.3(c), the Award shall be immediately forfeited by the Holder and cancelled by the Company.

2

vested shares of Stock to the Holder; provided, however, that in the event of vesting of the Award pursuant to Section 3.3(b), if the Award constitutes nonqualified deferred compensation (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code) and such Change in Control is not a “change in control event” (within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code), such Award shall be paid within 70 days after the earlier to occur of (i) the last day of the Performance Period and (ii) the Holder’s termination of employment. Such issuance or delivery shall be evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company.

The remedy provided by this Section shall be in addition to and not in lieu of any rights or remedies which the Company may have against the Holder in respect of a breach by the Holder of any duty or obligation to the Company.

5.2.Right of Setoff. The Holder agrees that by accepting the Award the Holder authorizes the Company and its affiliates to deduct any amount or amounts owed by the Holder pursuant to this Section 5 from any amounts payable by or on behalf of the Company or any affiliate to the Holder, including, without limitation, any amount payable to the Holder as salary, wages, vacation pay, bonus or the vesting or settlement of the Award or any stock-based award. This right of setoff shall not be an exclusive remedy and the Company’s or an affiliate’s election not to exercise this right of setoff with respect to any amount payable to the Holder shall not constitute a waiver of this right of setoff with respect to any other amount payable to the Holder or any other remedy.

6.Transfer Restrictions and Investment Representation.

6.1.Nontransferability of Award. The Award may not be transferred by the Holder other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution.  Except to the extent permitted by the foregoing sentence, the Award may not be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged, hypothecated, encumbered or otherwise disposed of (whether by operation of law or otherwise) or be subject to execution, attachment or similar process.  Upon any attempt to so sell, transfer, assign, pledge, hypothecate, encumber or otherwise dispose of the Award, the Award and all rights hereunder shall immediately become null and void.

7.Additional Terms and Conditions of Award.

7.1.Withholding Taxes. As a condition precedent to the issuance or delivery of the Stock upon the vesting of the Award, at the Company’s discretion either (i) the Holder shall pay to the Company such amount as the Company (or an affiliate) determines is required, under all applicable federal, state, local, foreign or other laws or regulations, to be withheld and paid over as income or other withholding taxes (the “Required Tax Payments”) with respect to the Award or (ii) the Company or an affiliate may, in its discretion, deduct any Required Tax Payments from any amount then or thereafter payable by the Company or an affiliate to the Holder, which may include the withholding of whole shares of Stock which would otherwise be delivered to the Holder having an aggregate Fair Market Value, determined as of the date on which such withholding obligation arises, equal to the Required Tax Payments, in either case in accordance with such terms, conditions and procedures that may be prescribed by the Company. Shares of Stock withheld may not have a Fair Market Value in excess of the amount determined by applying the maximum individual statutory tax rate in the Holder’s jurisdiction; provided that the Company shall be permitted to limit the number of shares so withheld to a lesser number if necessary, as determined by the Company, to avoid adverse accounting consequences or for administrative convenience; provided, however, that if a fraction of a share of Stock would be required to

3

satisfy the maximum individual statutory rate in the Holder’s jurisdiction, then the number of shares of Stock to be withheld may be rounded up to the next nearest whole share of Stock. No certificate representing a share of Stock shall be delivered until the Required Tax Payments have been satisfied in full. Any determination by the Company with respect to the withholding of shares of Stock to satisfy the Required Tax Payments shall be made by the Committee if the Holder is subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act.

7.2.Compliance with Applicable Law. The Award is subject to the condition that if the listing, registration or qualification of the shares of Stock subject to the Award upon any securities exchange or under any law, or the consent or approval of any governmental body, or the taking of any other action is necessary or desirable as a condition of, or in connection with, the delivery of shares hereunder, the shares of Stock subject to the Award shall not be delivered, in whole or in part, unless such listing, registration, qualification, consent, approval or other action shall have been effected or obtained, free of any conditions not acceptable to the Company. The Company agrees to use reasonable efforts to effect or obtain any such listing, registration, qualification, consent, approval or other action.

7.3.Award Confers No Rights to Continued Employment. In no event shall the granting of the Award or its acceptance by the Holder, or any provision of the Agreement or the Plan, give or be deemed to give the Holder any right to continued employment by the Company, any Subsidiary or any affiliate of the Company or affect in any manner the right of the Company, any Subsidiary or any affiliate of the Company to terminate the employment of any person at any time.

7.4.Decisions of Board or Committee. The Board or the Committee shall have the right to resolve all questions which may arise in connection with the Award. Any interpretation, determination or other action made or taken by the Board or the Committee regarding the Plan or this Agreement shall be final, binding and conclusive.

7.8.Agreement Subject to the Plan. This Agreement is subject to the provisions of the Plan and shall be interpreted in accordance therewith. In the event that the provisions of this Agreement and the Plan conflict, the Plan shall control. The Holder hereby acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan.
