Item 2.04

Triggering Events that Accelerate or Increase a Direct Financial Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement

            On July 12, 2005, Ingram Micro Inc. (“Ingram Micro”) gave notice that it will redeem all of its outstanding $200,000,000 principal amount of 9 7/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2008 (the “Notes”) in accordance with the terms of its Indenture dated as of August 16, 2001 (the “Indenture”) with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (as successor to Bank One Trust Company, N.A.), as Trustee. Management elected to call the Notes because it believes Ingram Micro has more than adequate available financing capacity to fund Ingram Micro's operations for the foreseeable future at costs significantly lower than those of the outstanding Notes. The redemption date will be August 15, 2005.

            The Notes will be redeemed at a redemption price of 104.938% of the principal amount of each Note, plus accrued but unpaid interest. The redemption price will be paid on or after the redemption date, upon surrender to JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as paying agent, of the Notes being redeemed.

            Concurrently with the redemption of the Notes, Ingram Micro is closing, effective August 15, 2005, its position under the interest rate swap agreements entered into on August 16, 2001 with two financial institutions, the effect of which had been to swap its fixed-rate obligation on the Notes for a floating rate obligation equal to 90-day LIBOR plus 4.260%.
