Explanation of Responses:

* If the form is filed by more than one reporting person, see Instruction 4(b)(v).
** Intentional misstatements or omissions of facts constitute Federal Criminal Violations. See 18 U.S.C. 1001 and 15 U.S.C. 78ff(a).
(1) On 06/14/2007 the Reporting Person entered into a prepaid variable forward sales contract ("Forward Contract") with an unaffiliated third-party buyer (the "Buyer") pursuant to a Master Agreement relating to the disposition by the Reporting Person to the Buyer of not more than 60,036 shares (the "Shares") of Brightpoint, Inc. common stock ("Common Stock") (or an eqivalent amount of cash, if elected by the Reporting Person), on the Maturity Date of the Forward Contract (06/13/2008, or an earlier date if the Reporting Person determines to terminate the Forward Contract early).
(2) The Reporting Person received from the Buyer a cash payment of $697,161.34 (or $11.61 per share) as of the date of entering into the Forward Contract. The Reporting Person pledged the 60,036 Shares (the "Pledged Shares") to secure its obligations under the Master Agreement. On the Maturity Date, the Reporting Person, at his option, may deliver to the Buyer either the number of Pledged Shares determined pursuant to a formula (described below) or the cash equivalent of such Shares (the share prices of the Common Stock reflected below are subject to adjustment for certain events specified in the Master Agreement).
(3) If the last bid price (in the case of settlement with Pledged Shares) or the last offer price (in the case of settlement by cash) (collectively the "Settlement Price") of the Common Stock on the Maturity Date is less than or equal to $12.7298 (the "Floor Price"), the Reporting Person would deliver to the Buyer the entire amount of the Shares; if the Settlement Price of the Common Stock on the Maturity Date is greater than the Floor Price and less than $16.9730 (the "Ceiling Price") the Reporting Person would deliver to the Buyer a number of shares of Common Stock determined by multiplying the Pledged Shares by a fraction determined by dividing the Floor Price by the Settlement Price. This explanation is continued in Footnote 4.
(4) If the Settlement Price is greater than or equal to the Ceiling Price, the Reporting Person would deliver to the Buyer a number of shares of Common Stock determined by multiplying the Pledged Shares by a fraction determined by subtracting from 1 the quotient of (x) the Ceiling Price minus the Floor Price, divided by (y) the Settlement Price.

Note: File three copies of this Form, one of which must be manually signed. If space is insufficient, see Instruction 6 for procedure.
