      Electronics Announces Additional $400 Million Share Repurchase Program</b></font></u>
    </p>
    <p>
      CENTENNIAL, Colo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--September 17, 2015--Arrow
      Electronics, Inc. (NYSE:ARW) announced today the approval by the
      company&#8217;s Board of Directors of the repurchase of up to an additional
      $400 million of common stock through a share repurchase program. The
      company has spent approximately $1.4 billion on share repurchases since
      the beginning of 2010.
    </p>
    <p>
      &#8220;Arrow&#8217;s capital allocation priorities continue to be organic
      investments that accelerate our growth, accretive acquisitions that
      expand our capabilities and reach, and the return of excess cash to our
      shareholders,&quot; said Michael J. Long, chairman, president, and chief
      executive officer. &#8220;Our company&#8217;s growth and the effective management of
      our balance sheet enabled the Board of Directors to increase the size of
      this authorization compared to prior authorizations.&#8221;
    </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.
