Ladies & Gentlemen
The Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of September 28, 2022 among, ScanSource, Inc., as the Borrower, the Subsidiary Borrowers from time to time party thereto, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as Administrative Agent, Swingline Lender and Issuing Bank AND THE Lenders thereto (the “Credit Agreement”).
1.We are writing to you in your capacity as Administrative Agent under the Credit Agreement. Unless otherwise defined in this letter, terms defined in the Credit Agreement have the same meaning when used in this letter. The term “CAD CDOR Loans” in this letter shall mean loans that are borrowed in Canadian Dollars that use CDOR as an interest rate and the term “CAD Loans” in this letter shall mean loans that are borrowed in Canadian Dollars.
1.Each Borrower acknowledges that Refinitiv Benchmark Services (UK) Limited, as administrator of the CDOR rate, has announced that it will cease publication of all tenors of CDOR after the publication on June 28, 2024 (the “2024 CDOR Cessation”).
1.For good and valuable consideration, including delaying the incurrence of costs required to update the terms of the Credit Agreement in connection with the 2024 CDOR Cessation, and in lieu of amending or waiving any term of the Credit Agreement, each of the Borrowers agrees with effect from April 10, 2024 to suspend its following rights under the Credit Agreement:
a.Each of the Borrowers agrees that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Credit Documents, from and after July 1, 2024, CAD CDOR Loans shall not be available under the Credit Agreement and no Lender shall be obligated to participate in any Borrowing under the Credit Agreement of CAD CDOR Loans (clause (a), the “Suspension of Rights”); and
a.Each of the Borrowers agrees that, if a notice or instruction is given under the Credit Agreement on or after June 28, 2024 that selects CDOR as the interest rate for a CAD Loan, such notice or instruction shall be deemed to be ineffective.
1.The Suspension of Rights shall cease to have effect (and all rights of the Borrowers under the Credit Agreement in respect of the terms set out in paragraph 3 above in effect immediately prior to the Suspension of Rights shall be in full force and effect) following notice from each of the Borrowers to the Administrative Agent, provided that, such notice shall only be effective if, prior to the date of such notice, amendments to the Credit Agreement to take account of the 2024 CDOR Cessation and to replace CDOR with a CORRA-based interest rate with respect to CAD Loans have become effective pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement.

Exhibit 10.1

1.This letter is hereby designated as a Credit Document and we acknowledge that this letter will be posted to the Approved Electronic Platform established for Lenders for the Credit Agreement. We acknowledge and agree that each Lender under the Credit Agreement may rely on and shall be a third party beneficiary of this letter.
