      Electronics Announces Additional Share Repurchase Program</b></font></u>
    </p>
    <p>
      MELVILLE, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 26, 2011--Arrow Electronics, Inc.
      (NYSE:ARW) announced today the approval by the company&#8217;s Board of
      Directors of the repurchase of an additional $100 million of common
      stock through a share repurchase program. The company had previously
      announced a repurchase program in February 2011 for $50 million, that
      has been completed through the second quarter of 2011.
    </p>
    <p>
      This action will permit the company to continue repurchasing shares of
      its common stock as market and business conditions warrant. The program
      can be terminated at any time. The company may enter into Rule 10b5-1
      plans to facilitate repurchases under the program. A Rule 10b5-1 plan
      would generally permit the company to repurchase shares at times when it
      might otherwise be prevented from doing so under certain securities laws.
