 <P STYLE="margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman"><B>Item&nbsp;1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. </B></P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">On September&nbsp;10, 2013, SYNNEX Corporation, a Delaware corporation (&#147;SYNNEX&#148;), issued a press release announcing that it has entered into a
Master Asset Purchase Agreement (the &#147;Purchase Agreement&#148;), by and between SYNNEX and International Business Machines Corporation, a New York corporation (&#147;IBM&#148;), pursuant to which SYNNEX will acquire certain assets of IBM (the
&#147;Acquisition&#148;). Each of SYNNEX and IBM is sometime hereinafter referred to as a &#147;Party&#148; and collectively as the &#147;Parties&#148;. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, at the closing of the Acquisition, SYNNEX will acquire the customer care business from IBM (the
&#147;Assets&#148;) for an aggregate purchase price of $505 million, subject to post-closing adjustments (the &#147;Purchase Price&#148;). A portion of the Purchase Price will be paid in shares of SYNNEX common stock, $0.001 par value per share
(&#147;Common Stock&#148;), up to the lesser of $75 million or 5% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (the &#147;Stock Consideration&#148;). At the closing SYNNEX will issue the Stock Consideration and $430 million in cash to IBM or affiliate
of IBM, less $75 million to be held back in the event a portion of the Assets are not transferred to SYNNEX at the initial closing. If a portion of the Assets are not transferred at the initial closing, IBM will operate the Assets for the benefit of
SYNNEX pending one or more subsequent closings, which are to occur no later June&nbsp;30, 2015. In connection with the Acquisition, SYNNEX intends to offer employment to approximately 35,000 employees in locations around the world, including the
United States, the United Kingdom, India and the Philippines. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">SYNNEX anticipates the initial closing to occur in its fiscal first quarter of 2014. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Completion of the Acquisition is subject to customary closing conditions, including, but not limited to, expiration or termination of the applicable waiting
period under Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, and other regulatory approvals. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Board of Directors of SYNNEX,
unanimously approved the Purchase Agreement, and determined that the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Acquisition, were advisable, fair to and in the best interest of SYNNEX and its stockholders. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The foregoing description of the Purchase Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Purchase Agreement, a copy of which is
attached hereto as Exhibit&nbsp;2.1 and is incorporated herein by reference. The Purchase Agreement has been attached to provide investors with information regarding its terms. It is not intended to provide any other factual information about the
Parties. In particular, the assertions embodied in the representations and warranties contained in the Purchase Agreement are qualified by information in confidential Disclosure Schedules provided by each Party in connection with the signing of the
Purchase Agreement. These confidential Disclosure Schedules contain information that modifies, qualifies and creates exceptions to the representations and warranties set forth in the Purchase Agreement. Moreover, certain representations and
warranties in the Purchase Agreement were used for the purpose of allocating risk between the Parties rather than establishing matters as facts. Accordingly, you should not rely on the representations and warranties in the Purchase Agreement as
characterizations of the actual state of facts about the Parties. </P> <P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The full text of SYNNEX&#146; press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this report

Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On September 10, 2013, SYNNEX Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("SYNNEX"), issued a press release announcing that it has entered into a
Master Asset Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement"), by and between SYNNEX and International Business Machines Corporation, a New York corporation ("IBM"), pursuant to which SYNNEX will acquire certain assets of IBM (the
"Acquisition"). Each of SYNNEX and IBM is sometime hereinafter referred to as a "Party" and collectively as the "Parties".
Pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, at the closing of the Acquisition, SYNNEX will acquire the customer care business from IBM (the
"Assets") for an aggregate purchase price of $505 million, subject to post-closing adjustments (the "Purchase Price"). A portion of the Purchase Price will be paid in shares of SYNNEX common stock, $0.001 par value per share
("Common Stock"), up to the lesser of $75 million or 5% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock (the "Stock Consideration"). At the closing SYNNEX will issue the Stock Consideration and $430 million in cash to IBM or affiliate
of IBM, less $75 million to be held back in the event a portion of the Assets are not transferred to SYNNEX at the initial closing. If a portion of the Assets are not transferred at the initial closing, IBM will operate the Assets for the benefit of
SYNNEX pending one or more subsequent closings, which are to occur no later June 30, 2015. In connection with the Acquisition, SYNNEX intends to offer employment to approximately 35,000 employees in locations around the world, including the
United States, the United Kingdom, India and the Philippines.
SYNNEX anticipates the initial closing to occur in its fiscal first quarter of 2014.
Completion of the Acquisition is subject to customary closing conditions, including, but not limited to, expiration or termination of the applicable waiting
period under Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, and other regulatory approvals.
The Board of Directors of SYNNEX,
unanimously approved the Purchase Agreement, and determined that the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Acquisition, were advisable, fair to and in the best interest of SYNNEX and its stockholders.
The foregoing description of the Purchase Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Purchase Agreement, a copy of which is
attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1 and is incorporated herein by reference. The Purchase Agreement has been attached to provide investors with information regarding its terms. It is not intended to provide any other factual information about the
Parties. In particular, the assertions embodied in the representations and warranties contained in the Purchase Agreement are qualified by information in confidential Disclosure Schedules provided by each Party in connection with the signing of the
Purchase Agreement. These confidential Disclosure Schedules contain information that modifies, qualifies and creates exceptions to the representations and warranties set forth in the Purchase Agreement. Moreover, certain representations and
warranties in the Purchase Agreement were used for the purpose of allocating risk between the Parties rather than establishing matters as facts. Accordingly, you should not rely on the representations and warranties in the Purchase Agreement as
characterizations of the actual state of facts about the Parties.
The full text of SYNNEX' press release is attached as Exhibit 99.1 to this report
and incorporated herein by reference. SYNNEX and IBM also issued a joint press release, which is attached at Exhibit 99.2 to this report and incorporated herein by reference.
