ITEM 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On July 12, 2012, Brightpoint, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into the Sixth Amendment to its Credit Agreement dated as of February 16, 2007 and amended effective July 31, 2007, November 20, 2007, March 12, 2009, November 23, 2010 and September 28, 2011. The Sixth Amendment, in association with the Company’s entrance on June 29, 2012 into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with Ingram Micro Inc and its subsidiary, Beacon Sub Inc., revises the definition of ‘Change of Control’ set forth in the Credit Agreement. The revision of the ‘Change of Control’ definition eliminates from that definition circumstances in which a contract or arrangement is entered into and, upon consummation of that contract or arrangement, a party or parties acting in concert acquire the power to exercise, directly or indirectly, a controlling influence over the management or policies of the Company, or control over the voting stock of the Company on a fully-diluted basis (and taking into account all such voting stock that such party or parties has the right to acquire pursuant to any option right) representing thirty-five percent (35%) or more of the combined voting power of such voting stock.
