ITEM 8.01 OTHER EVENTS
On November 30, 2005, with an effective date of December 1, 2005, Anthony W.
Boor, the Chief Financial Officer of Brightpoint, Inc. (the "Company") entered
into a Sales Plan with a brokerage firm under Securities Exchange Act Rule
10b5-1. Such plans allow a corporate insider to gradually diversify holdings of
his company's common stock while minimizing any market effects of such trades by
spreading them out over an extended period of time and eliminating any market
concern that such trades were made by a person while in possession of material
nonpublic information. Consistent with Rule 10b5-1, the Company's guidelines
permit personnel to implement 10b5-1 trading plans provided that, among other
things, they are not in possession of any material nonpublic information at the
time that they adopt such plans.
Pursuant to the 10b5-1 plan entered into by Mr. Boor, up to 11,250 shares of the
Company's common stock may be traded upon exercise of the stock options
contributed to the plan. All sales under the 10b5-1 plan are subject to the
terms and conditions thereof, including predetermined minimum price conditions.
The 10b5-1 plan entered into by Mr. Boor has a term of one year.
