      Announces a Special Dividend to Shareholders</font></b>
    </p>
    <p>
      MERRIMACK, N.H.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--December 20, 2016--Connection (PC
      Connection, Inc.; NASDAQ: CNXN), an industry-leading National Technology
      Solutions Provider of a full range of information solutions to business,
      government, and education markets, today announced that its Board of
      Directors declared a special cash dividend of&#160;$0.34&#160;per share payable
      on&#160;January 12, 2017,&#160;to shareholders of record at the close of business
      on&#160;December 30, 2016. The total amount of the special dividend payment
      will be approximately&#160;$9.0 million&#160;based on the current number of shares
      outstanding. While&#160;Connection&#160;is pleased to be in a position to pay a
      special dividend again this year, any declaration of future cash
      dividends will depend upon its financial position, strategic plans, and
      general business conditions at the time.
    </p>
    <p>
      Timothy McGrath, President and Chief Executive Officer said, &quot;As
      reported, we earned record quarterly revenue and gross profit in the
      third quarter and generated significant positive cash flow in the nine
      months ended&#160;September 30, 2016. In addition, we completed two
      acquisitions this year: Softmart, expanding our software and cloud
      solutions capabilities; and GlobalServe, enhancing our ability to
      service customers on a global scale, and significantly increased
      shareholder value. The Company has successfully leveraged its assets and
      maintained a strong balance sheet. We believe that this special dividend
      is an additional way to reward shareholders for their support.&quot;
