     On December 23, 2010, WESCO International, Inc. (the “Company”) announced that it completed its previously announced redemption (the “Redemption”) of all of its outstanding 2.625% Convertible Senior Debentures due 2025 (the “Debentures”). In accordance with the Redemption, the Company redeemed $2,509,000 aggregate principal amount of outstanding Debentures in exchange for an aggregate of approximately $2.5 million in cash, including accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, December 23, 2010.
     Prior to the Redemption, holders of $89,815,000 aggregate principal amount of Debentures converted their Debentures pursuant to the terms of the Debentures (the “Conversion”). The consideration paid by the Company in the Conversion was based on the closing price of the Company’s common stock over a 20-trading-day cash settlement averaging period. In settlement of the Conversion, the Company paid an aggregate of approximately $89.8 million in cash, including cash in lieu of fractional shares, and issued 340,213 shares of its common stock in the aggregate. No Debentures remain outstanding following the Redemption and Conversion.
