Intcomex, Inc. Announces Pricing of Senior Secured Notes due 2014

MIAMI, Fla. — Intcomex, Inc. (“Intcomex”) announced today that it priced a private offering to eligible purchasers (the “Offering”) of $120,000,000 aggregate principal amount of Second Priority Senior Secured Notes due 2014 (the “Notes”). The Notes mature on December 15, 2014 and will bear interest at a rate of 13.25% per year, payable semi-annually on June 15 and December 15 of each year, commencing on June 15, 2010. The Notes are offered at an initial offering price of 94.43% of par, or an effective yield to maturity of approximately 14.875%. The Offering is expected to settle and close on December 22, 2009, subject to customary closing conditions.

Intcomex intends to use the net proceeds from this Offering to, among other things, repay borrowings under its senior secured revolving credit facility, fund the repurchase, redemption or other discharge of its 113/4% Second Priority Senior Secured Notes due 2011, for which it is conducting a tender offer, and for general corporate purposes.

The Notes will be guaranteed by all of Intcomex’s existing and future domestic restricted subsidiaries that guarantee its obligations under its senior secured revolving credit facility.

The Notes will be offered in the United States (“U.S.”) only to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The Notes will be offered outside the U.S. to non-U.S. persons pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act. The Notes will not be registered under the Securities Act and will not be offered or sold in the U.S. without an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall there be any sale of the Notes in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such jurisdiction.
