Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On December 12, 2012, SYNNEX Corporation (the “Company”) and its wholly-owned subsidiary, SYNNEX Infotec Corporation (“Infotec Japan”) refinanced Infotec Japan's credit facility through a facility agreement (the “Infotec Credit Agreement”) with certain financial institutions. The Infotec Credit Agreement provides for a maximum commitment of JP¥14.0 billion. The Infotec Credit agreement is comprised of a JP¥6.0 billion long-term loan and a JP¥8.0 billion revolving credit facility. The interest rate for the long-term loan and revolving credit facility is based on the Tokyo Interbank Offered Rate plus a margin of 1.90% per annum. The Infotec Credit Agreement expires in December 2015. The long-term loan can be repaid at any time prior to maturity without penalty.

The Infotec Credit Agreement contains various loan covenants that restrict the ability of Infotec Japan to take certain actions, including restrictions on creation of liens, dispositions of assets, dividends, mergers, or changing the nature of its business. In addition, Infotec Japan is required to maintain a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio (as defined in the Infotec Credit Agreement) of at least 1.10 to 1.0 and to maintain a minimum net worth in an amount set forth in the Infotec Credit Agreement. Infotec Japan's obligations under the Infotec Credit Agreement are secured by its accounts receivable and inventories and are guaranteed by the Company.

The foregoing description of the Infotec Credit Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Infotec Credit Agreement which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated by reference herein.
