Any statement contained herein or made in a document incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference herein shall be deemed to be modified or superseded for purposes of this Registration Statement to the extent that a statement contained herein or in any other subsequently filed document which is also incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference herein modifies or supersedes such statement.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES Not applicable, see Item 3(3) above. ITEM 5. INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL Not applicable. ITEM 6. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS Reference is made to section 102(b)(7) of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "DGCL"), which enables a corporation in its certificate of incorporation to eliminate or limit the personal liability of a director for violations of the director's fiduciary duty, except (i) for breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) pursuant to section 174 of the DGCL (providing for liability of directors for unlawful payment of dividends or unlawful stock purchases or redemptions) or (iv) for any transaction from which a director derived an improper personal benefit. The Registrant's certificate of incorporation eliminates the 3 4 liability of directors to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware Law. Reference is made to section 145 of the DGCL which provides that a corporation may indemnify directors and officers as well as other employees and agents against expenses (including attorney's fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement in connection with specified actions, suits or proceedings, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation (a "derivative action") if they act in good faith and in a manner they reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe their conduct was unlawful. A similar standard is applicable in the case of derivative actions, except that indemnification only extends to expenses (including attorney's fees) incurred in connection with defense or settlement of such action, and the statute requires court approval before there can be indemnification that may be granted by a corporation's charter, by-laws, disinterested director vote, stockholder vote, agreement or otherwise. The Registrant's certificate of incorporation provides for indemnification of its directors, officers. Employees and agents to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware Law. In addition, the Registrant has purchased and maintains directors' and officers' liability insurance. ITEM 7. EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION CLAIMED Not applicable. ITEM 8. EXHIBITS

UNDERTAKINGS (a) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes: (1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement: (i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933; (ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of this Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in this Registration Statement. 4 5 Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high and of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in this Registration Statement; and (iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration Statement or any material change to such information in this Registration Statement; provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the registration statement is on Form S-3, Form S-8 or Form F-3, and the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference into this Registration Statement; (2) That for the purpose of determining any liability under the 1933 Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof; and (3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering. (b) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the Registrant's Annual Report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and where applicable, each filing of the Plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new Registration Statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. (c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the 1933 Act may be permitted to directors, officers or controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the1933 Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the 1933 Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

certificates of public officials and other instruments as we have deemed
necessary for the purposes of rendering this opinion.

            Upon the basis of the foregoing, and assuming the due execution and
delivery of certificates representing the Shares, we are of the opinion that the
Shares deliverable pursuant to the Plan have been duly authorized and, when and
to the extent issued pursuant to the Plan upon receipt by the Company of
adequate consideration therefor, will be validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable.

Plan, the Committee shall have full power and authority to: (i) determine
whether, to what extent, and under what circumstances Options may be settled or
exercised in cash, Shares, other securities or other property, or suspended and
the method or methods by which Options may be settled, exercised or suspended;
(ii) determine whether, to what extent, and under what circumstances cash,
Shares, other securities, other property and other amounts payable with respect
to an Option shall be deferred either automatically or at the election of the
holder thereof or of the Committee; (iii) interpret and administer the Plan and
any instrument or agreement relating to, or Option made under, the Plan; (iv)
establish, amend, suspend, or waive such rules and regulations and appoint such
agents as it shall deem appropriate for the proper administration of the Plan;
and (v) make any other determination and take any other action that the
Committee deems necessary or desirable for the administration of the Plan. The
Committee shall treat each Participant equally under this Section 3(a) and
without regard to whether any such Participant is employed by Micro,
Entertainment or Industries or any of their respective parent or subsidiary
corporations, as the case may be.

         (b) Committee Discretion Binding. Unless otherwise expressly provided
in the Plan, all designations, determinations, interpretations and other
decisions under or with respect to the Plan or any Option shall be within the
sole discretion of the Committee, may be made at any time and shall be final,
conclusive and binding upon all Persons, including any Ingram Company, any
Participant, any holder or beneficiary of any Option, any shareholder and any
Employee.

         SECTION 4. SHARES AVAILABLE FOR OPTIONS.

         (a) Shares Available. Subject to adjustment as provided in Section
4(b), the number of Shares with respect to which Options may be granted under
the Plan shall be 12,000,000.

         (b) Adjustments. In the event that the Committee determines that any
dividend or other distribution (whether in the form of cash, Shares, other
securities or other property), recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock
split, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, split-off, spin-off,
combination, repurchase or exchange of Shares or other securities of Micro or
other similar corporate transaction or event affects the Shares such that an
adjustment is determined by the Committee to be appropriate in order to preserve
the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under the Plan,
then the Committee shall, in such manner as it may deem equitable, adjust any or
all of (i) the number of Shares of Micro (or number and kind of other securities
or property) with respect to which Options may thereafter be granted, (ii) the
number of Shares or other securities of Micro (or number and kind of other
securities or property) subject to outstanding Options, and (iii) the exercise
price with respect to any Option, or, if deemed appropriate, make provision for
a cash payment to the holder of an outstanding Option; provided, in each case,
that except to the extent deemed desirable by the Committee (A) with respect to
Options that are intended to qualify as Incentive Stock Options, no such
adjustment shall be authorized to the extent that such adjustment would cause
the Plan to violate Section 422(b)(1) of the Code and (B) with respect to any
Option, no such adjustment shall be authorized to the extent that such authority
would be inconsistent with the Plan's meeting the requirements of Section 162(m)
of the Code.



                                       16
   5
         (c) Sources of Shares Deliverable Under Options. Any Shares delivered
pursuant to an Option may consist, in whole or in part, of authorized and
unissued Shares or of treasury Shares.

         SECTION 5. ELIGIBILITY. Participation in the Plan is limited to those
Employees who qualify as Participants as of the Closing.

         SECTION 6. STOCK OPTIONS.

         (a) Grant. The Employees to whom Options shall be granted, the number
of Shares to be covered by each Option, the option price therefor, the type of
Option and the conditions and limitations applicable to the exercise of the
Option shall be determined in accordance with the Conversion Agreement,
including Schedule 1 thereto. Options will be Incentive Stock Options,
Non-Qualified Stock Options or both, as provided in the Conversion Agreement. In
the case of Incentive Stock Options, the terms and conditions of such grants
shall be subject to and comply with such rules as may be prescribed by Section
422 of the Code.

         (b) Exercise Price. The Committee shall establish the exercise price as
provided in Schedule 1 to the Conversion Agreement.

         (c) Exercise. Each Option shall be exercisable at such times and
subject to such terms and conditions as the Committee may, subject to the
Conversion Agreement, specify in the applicable Option Agreement or thereafter.
The Committee may impose such conditions with respect to the exercise of
Options, including without limitation, any relating to the application of
federal or state securities laws, as it may deem necessary or advisable.

         (d) Payment. No Shares shall be delivered pursuant to any exercise of
an Option until payment in full of the option price therefor is received by
Micro. Such payment may be made in cash, or its equivalent, or, if and to the
extent permitted by the Committee, by exchanging Shares owned by the optionee
(which are not the subject of any pledge or other security interest), or by a
combination of the foregoing, provided that the combined value of all cash and
cash equivalents and the Fair Market Value of any such Shares so tendered to
Micro as of the date of such tender is at least equal to such option price.

         SECTION 7. TERMINATION OR SUSPENSION OF EMPLOYMENT. The following
provisions shall apply in the event of the Participant's termination of
employment unless the Committee shall have provided otherwise, either at the
time of the grant of the Option or thereafter.

         (a) Non-Qualified Stock Options.

         (i) Termination of Employment. Except as the Committee may at any time
otherwise provide or as required to comply with applicable law, if the
Participant's employment with the Participant's Employer or any of its
Subsidiaries is terminated for any reason other than death, permanent and total
disability, retirement or Cause, the Participant's right to exercise any
Non-Qualified Stock Option shall terminate, and such Option shall expire, on the
earlier of (A) the 60th day following such termination of employment or (B) the
date such Option would have expired had it not been for the termination of
employment. The Participant shall have the right to exercise such Option prior
to such expiration to the extent it was exercisable at the date of such
termination of employment and has not subsequently been exercised.

         (ii) Death, Disability or Retirement. Except as the Committee may at
any time otherwise provide or as required to comply with applicable law, if the
Participant's employment with the Participant's Employer or any of its
Subsidiaries is terminated by reason of death, permanent and total disability,
or retirement, the Participant or his successor (if employment is terminated by
death) shall have the right to exercise any Non-Qualified Stock Option during
the one-year period following such termination of employment, to the extent it
was exercisable and outstanding at the date of such 



                                       17
   6
termination of employment, but in no event shall such option be exercisable
later than the date the Option would have expired had it not been for the
termination of such employment. The meaning of the terms "permanent and total
disability" and "retirement" shall be determined by the Committee.

         (iii) Cause. On the date the Participant's employment with the
Participant's Employer or any of its Subsidiaries is terminated for Cause, the
Participant's right to exercise any Non-Qualified Stock Option shall terminate
and such Option shall expire.

         (iv) Acceleration and Extension of Exercisability. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Committee may, in its discretion, provide at any time (A) that an
Option granted to a Participant may terminate at a date later than that set
forth above, provided such date shall not be beyond the date the Option would
have expired had it not been for the termination of the Participant's employment
and (B) that an Option may become immediately exercisable when it finds that
such acceleration would be in the best interests of Micro.

         (b) Incentive Stock Options. Except as otherwise determined by the
Committee at the time of grant or otherwise or as required to comply with
applicable law, if the Participant's employment with the Participant's Employer
or any of its Subsidiaries is terminated for any reason other than for Cause,
the Participant shall have the right to exercise any Incentive Stock Option
during the 60 days after such termination of employment to the extent it was
exercisable at the date of such termination, but in no event later than the date
the Option would have expired had it not been for the termination of such
employment. If the Participant does not exercise such Option to the full extent
permitted by the preceding sentence, the remaining exercisable portion of such
Option automatically will be deemed a Non-Qualified Stock Option, and such
Option will be exercisable during the period set forth in Section 7(a) of the
Plan, provided that in the event that employment is terminated because of death
or the Participant dies in such 60-day period the Option will continue to be an
Incentive Stock Option to the extent provided by Section 421 or Section 422 of
the Code, or any successor provision, and any regulations promulgated
thereunder. On the date the Participant's employment with his Employer or any of
its Subsidiaries is terminated for Cause, the Participant's right to exercise
any Incentive Stock Option shall terminate and such Option shall expire.

         (c) Any time spent by a Participant in the status of "leave without
pay" shall be disregarded for purposes of determining the extent to which any
Option or portion thereof has vested or otherwise become exercisable or
nonforfeitable.

         SECTION 8. AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION.

         (a) Amendments to the Plan. Subject to the provisions of the Conversion
Agreement, the Board may amend, alter, suspend, discontinue, or terminate the
Plan or any portion thereof at any time; provided that no such amendment,
alteration, suspension, discontinuation or termination shall be made without
shareholder approval if such approval is necessary to comply with any tax or
regulatory requirement, including for these purposes any approval requirement
which is a prerequisite for exemptive relief from Section 16(b) of the Exchange
Act, for which or with which the Board deems it necessary or desirable to
qualify or comply. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the
Committee may amend the Plan in such manner as may be necessary so as to have
the Plan conform with local rules and regulations in any jurisdiction outside
the United States.

         (b) Amendments to Options. Subject to the provisions of the Conversion
Agreement, the Committee may waive any conditions or rights under, amend any
terms of, or alter or suspend any Option theretofore granted, prospectively or
retroactively; provided that any such waiver, amendment, alteration or
suspension that would adversely affect the rights of any Participant or any
holder or beneficiary of any Option theretofore granted shall not to that extent
be effective without the consent of the affected Participant, holder or
beneficiary.



                                       18
   7
         (c) Cancellation. Any provision of this Plan or any Option Agreement to
the contrary notwithstanding, the Committee may cause any Option granted
hereunder to be canceled in consideration of a cash payment or alternative
Option made to the holder of such canceled Option equal in value to the Fair
Market Value of such canceled Option on the date of cancellation.

         SECTION 9. GENERAL PROVISIONS.

         (a) Nontransferability. No Option shall be assigned, alienated,
pledged, attached, sold or otherwise transferred or encumbered by a Participant,
except by will or the laws of descent and distribution provided, however, that
an Option other than an Incentive Stock Option may be transferable, to the
extent set forth in the applicable Option Agreement, (i) if such Option
Agreement provisions do not disqualify such Option for exemption under Rule
16b-3 or (ii) if such Option is not intended to qualify for exemption under such
rule.

         (b) No Rights to Options. Except as provided in the Conversion
Agreement or herein, no Employee, Participant or other Person shall have any
claim to be granted any Option, and there is no obligation for uniformity of
treatment of Employees, Participants, or holders or beneficiaries of Options.
The terms and conditions of Options need not be the same with respect to each
recipient.

         (c) Share Certificates. All certificates for Shares or other securities
of Micro or any Subsidiary delivered under the Plan pursuant to any Option or
the exercise thereof shall be subject to such stop transfer orders and other
restrictions as the Committee may deem advisable under the Plan or the rules,
regulations and other requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission or
any stock exchange upon which such Shares or other securities are then listed
and any applicable laws or rules or regulations, and the Committee may cause a
legend or legends to be put on any such certificates to make appropriate
reference to such restrictions.

         (d) Withholding. A Participant may be required to pay to the
Participant's Employer and such Employer shall have the right and is hereby
authorized to withhold from any payment due or transfer made under any Option or
under the Plan or from any compensation or other amount owing to a Participant
the amount (in cash, Shares, other securities or other property) of any
applicable withholding taxes in respect of an Option, its exercise, or any
payment or transfer under an Option or under the Plan and to take such other
action as may be necessary in the opinion of the Employer to satisfy all
obligations for the payment of such taxes.

         (e) Option Agreements. Each Option hereunder shall be evidenced by an
Option Agreement which shall be delivered to the Participant and shall specify
the terms and conditions of the Option and any rules applicable thereto.

         (f) No Limit on Other Compensation Arrangements. Nothing contained in
the Plan shall prevent Micro or any of its Subsidiaries from adopting or
continuing in effect other compensation arrangements, which may, but need not,
provide for the grant of options, restricted stock and Shares (subject to
shareholder approval if such approval is required), and such arrangements may be
either generally applicable or applicable only in specific cases.

         (g) No Right to Employment. The grant of an Option shall not be
construed as giving a Participant the right to be retained in the employ of the
Participant's Employer or any other Ingram Company. Further, the Participant's
Employer may at any time dismiss a Participant from employment, free from any
liability or any claim under the Plan or otherwise, unless otherwise expressly
provided in the Plan or in any Option Agreement.



                                       19
   8
         (h) Rights as a Stockholder. Subject to the provisions of the
applicable Option, no Participant or holder or beneficiary of any Option shall
have any rights as a stockholder with respect to any Shares to be distributed
under the Plan until he or she has become the holder of such Shares.

         (i) Governing Law. The validity, construction, and effect of the Plan
and any rules and regulations relating to the Plan and any Option Agreement
shall be determined in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware.

         (j) Severability. If any provision of the Plan or any Option is or
becomes or is deemed to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any
jurisdiction or as to any Person or Option, or would disqualify the Plan or any
Option under any law deemed applicable by the Committee, such provision shall be
construed or deemed amended to conform to the applicable laws, or if it cannot
be construed or deemed amended without, in the determination of the Committee,
materially altering the intent of the Plan or the Option, such provision shall
be stricken as to such jurisdiction, Person or Option and the remainder of the
Plan and any such Option shall remain in full force and effect.

         (k) Other Laws. The Committee may refuse to issue or transfer any
Shares or other consideration under an Option if, acting in its sole discretion,
it determines that the issuance or transfer of such Shares or such other
consideration might violate any applicable law or regulation or entitle Micro to
recover the same under Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act, and any payment
tendered to Micro by a Participant in connection therewith shall be promptly
refunded to the relevant Participant, holder or beneficiary. Without limiting
the generality of the foregoing, no Option granted hereunder shall be construed
as an offer to sell securities of Micro, and no such offer shall be outstanding,
unless and until the Committee in its sole discretion has determined that any
such offer, if made, would be in compliance with all applicable requirements of
the U.S. federal securities laws and any other laws to which such offer, if
made, would be subject.

         (l) No Trust or Fund Created. Neither the Plan nor any Option shall
create or be construed to create a trust or separate fund of any kind or a
fiduciary relationship between Micro or any of its Subsidiaries and a
Participant or any other Person. To the extent that any Person acquires a right
to receive payments from Micro or any of its Subsidiaries pursuant to an Option,
such right shall be no greater than the right of any unsecured general creditor
of Micro or any of its Subsidiaries.

         (m) No Fractional Shares. No fractional Shares shall be issued or
delivered pursuant to the Plan or any Option, and the Committee shall determine
whether cash or other securities or other property shall be paid or transferred
in lieu of any fractional Shares or whether such fractional Shares or any rights
thereto shall be cancelled, terminated, or otherwise eliminated.

         (n) Execution of Purchase Agreement; Disposition of Shares. Prior to a
Public Offering, no Shares shall be issued pursuant to the exercise of an Option
unless and until a Purchase Agreement shall be executed by Micro and the
Participant. Each certificate representing Shares so acquired shall bear an
appropriate legend setting forth the restrictions on transfer of such Shares as
provided by such Purchase Agreement.

         (o) Headings. Headings are given to the Sections and subsections of the
Plan solely as a convenience to facilitate reference. Such headings shall not be
deemed in any way material or relevant to the construction or interpretation of
the Plan or any provision thereof.

         SECTION 10. TERM OF THE PLAN.

         (a) Effective Date. The Plan shall be effective as of August 20, 1996,
subject to approval by the shareholders of Micro.

         (b) Expiration Date. Subject to earlier termination by Micro, the Plan
shall expire 90 days after the Closing. Unless otherwise expressly provided in
the Plan or in an applicable Option 


                                       20
   9
Agreement, any Option granted hereunder may, and the authority of the Board or
the Committee to amend, alter, adjust or suspend any such Option or to waive any
conditions or rights under any such Option shall, continue after the authority
for grant of new Options hereunder has been exhausted or terminated.


                                       21
