ADDITIONAL MATTERS
Solicitation of Proxies
This year, we are using the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, notice and access rule that allows us to furnish our
proxy materials over the internet to our stockholders instead of mailing paper copies of those materials to each stockholder. As a result,
beginning on or about April 30, 2009, we sent to most of our stockholders by mail a notice containing instructions on how to access our
proxy materials over the internet and vote online. This notice is not a proxy card and cannot be used to vote your shares. If you
received only a notice this year, you will not receive paper copies of the proxy materials unless you request the materials by following
the instructions on the notice or on the website referred to in the notice.
The proxy statement and annual report on Form 10-K for fiscal year 2008 are available at www.proxyvote.com.
The cost of soliciting proxies for the Annual Meeting will be borne by the Company. In addition to solicitation by mail and over
the internet, solicitations may also be made by personal interview, fax and telephone. Arrangements will be made with brokerage
houses and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries to send proxies and proxy material to their principals, and the Company will
reimburse them for expenses in so doing. Consistent with the Company’ s confidential voting procedure, Directors, officers and other
regular employees of the Company, as yet undesignated, may also request the return of proxies by telephone or fax, or in person.
Stockholder Proposals
Stockholder proposals intended to be presented at the Annual Meeting, including proposals for the nomination of Directors, must
be received by February 12, 2010, to be considered for the 2010 annual meeting pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange
Act. Stockholders proposals should be mailed to Systemax Inc., Attention: Investor Relations, 11 Harbor Park Drive, Port Washington,
NY 11050.
Other Matters
The Board does not know of any matter other than those described in this proxy statement that will be presented for action at the
meeting. If other matters properly come before the meeting, the persons named as proxies intend to vote the Shares they represent in
accordance with their judgment.
A COPY OF THE COMPANY’S FORM 10-K FOR FISCAL YEAR 2008 IS INCLUDED AS PART OF THE COMPANY’S
ANNUAL REPORT ALONG WITH THIS PROXY STATEMENT, WHICH ARE AVAILABLE AT www.proxyvote.com. AN
ADDITIONAL COPY MAY BE OBTAINED WITHOUT CHARGE UPON WRITTEN REQUEST. Such request should be
sent to: Systemax Inc., 11 Harbor Park Drive, Port Washington, New York 11050, Attention: Investor Relations or via email to
investinfo@systemax.com.
Available Information
The Company maintains an internet web site at www.systemax.com. The Company files reports with the Securities and Exchange
Commission and makes available free of charge on or through this web site its annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form
10-Q and current reports on Form 8-K, including all amendments to those reports. These are available as soon as is reasonably
practicable after they are filed with the SEC. All reports mentioned above are also available from the SEC’ s web site
(www.sec.gov). The information on the Company’ s web site or any report the Company files with, or furnishes to, the SEC is not part
of this proxy statement.
