Report of Independent Auditors
The Board of Trustees
The Retirement Plan of Pioneer-Standard Electronics, Inc.
We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits of The Retirement Plan of Pioneer-Standard Electronics, Inc. as of December 31, 2001 and 2000, and the related statement of changes in net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 2001. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plans management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan at December 31, 2001 and 2000 and the changes in its net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 2001 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule of assets (held at end of year) as of December 31, 2001 is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the financial statements but is supplementary information required by the Department of Labors Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosures under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. This supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the Plans management. The supplemental schedule has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our audits of the financial statements, and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole.

The Retirement Plan of Pioneer-Standard Electronics, Inc.
A. Description of Plan
The following description of The Retirement Plan of Pioneer-Standard Electronics, Inc. (the Plan) provides only general information. Participants should refer to the summary Plan document for a more complete description of the Plans provisions.
General
The Plan is a defined contribution plan covering all employees of Pioneer-Standard Electronics, Inc. and certain of its subsidiaries (the Company and Plan Administrator) as defined in the summary plan document.
The Plan is subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA).
Contributions
Participants may elect to contribute 1 to 15 percent of their annual pre-tax compensation. The Company will match 50 percent of the participants contributions on the first four percent of their compensation contributed. The Plan also provides for the Company to make additional annual contributions to the Plan in an amount of ten percent of its current profits in excess of the highest amount of profits before profit sharing costs and income taxes in any fiscal year since March 31, 1972 to employees credited with one thousand hours of service in the Plan year who are Plan participants at the end of the Plan year. The annual contributions may be made in cash or in Pioneer-Standard Electronics, Inc. Common Shares (Shares) provided that not more than fifty percent of the aggregate contribution for a Plan Year is made in Shares. The Plan further provides, however, that the Companys Board of Directors is authorized to establish the Companys additional contribution at a different amount, if any. For the year ended December 31, 2001, the Company elected to not make a profit sharing contribution.
Participants may elect one or more of the Plans investment options available for the investment of their contributions, their allocation of the Companys matching contributions and any additional contributions not made in Shares. The Company may direct that Shares contributed to the Plan for annual contributions be invested initially in the Pioneer-Standard Stock Pool. Participant and Company contributions are eligible to be transferred to any of the fund options of the Plan.
Participant Accounts
Each participants account is credited with the participants contribution, the Companys matching contribution and an allocation of (a) the Companys profit sharing contribution based on the proportion of the participants compensation to the total compensation within certain limits of all eligible participants, (b) Plan earnings, gains or losses, and (c) forfeitures of

Notes to Financial Statements
A. Description of Plan (continued)
nonvested account balances. Allocations are based on participant compensation within certain limits or account balances, as defined. At December 31, 2001, approximately $447,900 of forfeitures were used to reduce the Companys contribution. The participants account determines the benefit that will ultimately be received upon retirement or termination.
Vesting
Participants are immediately vested in their voluntary contributions plus actual earnings thereon. Vesting in the remainder of their accounts starts after the first year and is based on years of continuous service. A participant who has at least one hour of service after December 31, 1997 is 100 percent vested after five years of credited service. Participants who do not have an hour of service after December 31, 1997 were 100 percent vested after seven years of credited service.
A participant may withdraw at any time, pursuant to reasonable and uniform notice, any amount of the actual value of employee after-tax or rollover contributions. Withdrawal of funds representing the participants vested interest in matching, discretionary, and profit sharing contributions including earnings may only be made upon attainment of age 59-1/2 or upon determination that a serious financial hardship exists (e.g., medical expenses, tuition, purchase of a principal residence).
Participant Loans
Participants are permitted to borrow up to 50 percent of their vested interest, as defined, not to exceed $50,000. Loan terms range from 1 to 5 years or up to fifteen years for the purchase of a primary residence. The loans are secured by the balance in the participants account and accrue interest at one percentage point above the prime rate which is in effect on the first business day of the month prior to the month in which the loan application is issued. Principal and interest is paid ratably by the participants through biweekly or semi-monthly payroll deductions.
Payment of Benefits
On termination of participation in the Plan, for benefits commencing prior to July 1, 2002, a participant may elect to receive either a lump-sum payment equal to the vested interest in their account, or an annuity. For benefits commencing subsequent to July 1, 2002 upon termination of participation in the Plan, the normal method of distribution of the amounts distributable to a Participant will be a lump-sum payment. Distribution of the participants account must commence by April 1st following the attainment of age 70-1/2 if the participants ownership interest is five percent or more.

A. Description of Plan (continued)
Plan Termination
Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has the right under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and to terminate the Plan subject to the provisions of ERISA. In the event of Plan termination, participants will become 100 percent vested in their accounts.
B. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements are prepared on the accrual basis of accounting.
Investment Valuation
The shares of registered investment companies are valued at quoted market prices that represent the net asset value of shares held by the Plan at year-end. The common trust funds are stated at fair value as determined by American Express Trust Company (the Trustee). Equity securities, including Pioneer-Standard Electronics, Inc. Common Shares, are valued at the quoted market price at year-end in an active market. Participant loans are valued at their outstanding balances, which approximate fair value.
Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade-date basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results may differ from those estimates.
C. Transactions with Parties in Interest
Party-in-interest transactions include the investment in the funds of the Trustee, Pioneer-Standard Electronics, Inc. Common Shares and related dividend income, and the payment of administrative expenses by the Plan, which are reimbursed by the Company. Such transactions are exempt from being prohibited transactions.

F. Income Tax Status
The Plan received a determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service dated May 28, 1997, stating that the Plan is qualified under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code (the Code) and, therefore, the related trust is exempt from taxation. Once qualified, the Plan is required to operate in conformity with the Code to maintain its qualification. The Plan Administrator believes the Plan is being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the Code and, therefore, believes that the Plan is qualified and the related trust is tax exempt.
The Plan was restated and amended on December 21, 2000 generally effective January 1, 2001. The Plan has applied for but has not received a determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service stating that the amended Plan is qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code. However, the Plan Administrator believes that the Plan, as amended, is qualified and, therefore, the related trust is exempt from taxation.
