Each Stockholder acknowledges that none of the Common Stock (except any shares of Class C Common Stock registered under the Securities Act (1) on Form S-8 prior to the Closing Date, (2) in connection with the Merger or (3) after the Closing Date) has been registered under the Securities Act and such unregistered

shares may not be transferred, except as otherwise provided herein, pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act or pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act. Each Stockholder agrees that it will not transfer any Common Stock at any time if such action would (i) constitute a violation of any securities laws of any applicable jurisdiction or a breach of the conditions to any exemption from registration of Common Stock under any such laws or a breach of any undertaking or agreement of such Stockholder entered into pursuant to such laws or in connection with obtaining an exemption thereunder, (ii) cause the Company to become subject to the registration requirements of the U.S. Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended from time to time, or (iii) be a non-exempt “prohibited transaction” under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code or cause all or any portion of the assets of the Company to constitute “plan assets” for purposes of fiduciary responsibility or prohibited transaction provisions of Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code. Each Stockholder agrees it shall not be entitled to any certificate for any or all of the Common Stock, unless the Board shall otherwise determine.

(i) Each certificate (or book-entry share) evidencing Common Stock held by a Stockholder shall, unless Section 4.1(d)(ii) or Section 4.1(d)(iii) applies, bear the following restrictive legend, either as an endorsement or on the face thereof:

THE SALE, ASSIGNMENT, TRANSFER OR OTHER DISPOSITION OF THE SECURITIES EVIDENCED BY THIS CERTIFICATE IS RESTRICTED BY THE TERMS OF A SLP STOCKHOLDERS AGREEMENT, DATED AS OF [●], 2018, AS IT MAY BE AMENDED, MODIFIED OR SUPPLEMENTED FROM TIME TO TIME, COPIES OF WHICH ARE ON FILE WITH THE ISSUER OF THIS CERTIFICATE.

(iii) In the event that any or all of the paragraphs in the restrictive legend set forth in Section 4.1(d)(i) or Section 4.1(d)(ii) have ceased to be applicable, the Company shall provide any Stockholder, or their respective transferees, at their request, without any expense to such Persons (other than applicable transfer taxes and similar governmental charges, if any), with new certificates (or evidence of book-entry share) for such Common Stock of like tenor not bearing such paragraph(s) of the legend with respect to which the restriction has ceased and terminated (it being understood that the restriction referred to in the first paragraph of the legend in Section 4.1(d)(i) and in the legend in Section 4.1(d)(ii) shall cease and terminate only upon the termination of this ARTICLE IV with respect to the Stockholder holding such Common Stock).

(e) No Other Proxies or Voting Agreements. No Stockholder shall grant any proxy or enter into or agree to be bound by any voting trust with respect to any DTI Securities or enter into any agreements or arrangements of either kind with any person with respect to any DTI Securities inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement (whether or not such agreements and arrangements are with other Stockholders or holders of DTI Securities who are not parties to this Agreement), including agreements or arrangements with respect to the acquisition, disposition or voting (if applicable) of any DTI Securities, nor shall any Stockholder act, for any reason, as a member of a group or in concert with any other persons in connection with the acquisition, disposition or voting (if applicable) of any DTI Securities in any manner which is inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement.

Section 4.2. Restrictions on Transfers During Restricted Period. Prior to the 181st day following the Closing Date (the “Restricted Period”), no Stockholder (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any Permitted Transferee of a Stockholder) may transfer any DTI Securities without the prior written consent of the Company (which Company consent shall require approval by the Special Committee), except for transfers of DTI Securities:

(a) in a Qualified Sale Transaction;

(b) pursuant to the “tag-along” rights of such Stockholder under Section 4.4 in respect of (x) any transfer by the MD Stockholders that has been approved in advance by the SLP Stockholders or (y) a Sale Transaction that either is a Qualified Sale Transaction or has been approved by the SLP Stockholders; or

(c) to a Permitted Transferee of such Stockholder (provided that, in the case of a transfer pursuant to this Section 4.2(c), the Permitted Transferee of such Stockholder shall agree to hold such DTI Securities subject to the transfer restriction in this Section 4.2 for the balance of the Restricted Period).

Section 4.3. Permitted Transfers. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, each Stockholder and its Permitted Transferees may transfer DTI Securities held by him, her or it to a Permitted Transferee of such Stockholder without complying with the provisions of this ARTICLE IV, other than Section 4.1 and Section 4.2; provided, that such Permitted Transferee shall have executed and delivered to the Company a Joinder Agreement in the form attached hereto as Annex A-1 as contemplated in Section 4.1(a) and ARTICLE VI, or otherwise agreed with all parties hereto, in a written instrument reasonably satisfactory to the Company, that he, she or it will immediately convey record and beneficial ownership of all such DTI Securities and all rights and obligations hereunder to such Stockholder or another Permitted Transferee of such Stockholder if, and immediately prior to such time that, he, she or it ceases to be a Permitted Transferee of such Stockholder.

Section 4.4. Tag-Along Rights.

(a) Subject to Section 4.4(h) and receipt of prior written approval of the Company as may be required pursuant to Section 4.2, (x) if any Initiating Tag-Along Seller proposes to transfer all or a portion of their DTI Securities equal to 10% or more of the then outstanding Common Stock to any single Person or “group” (within the meaning of Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules thereunder) (other than to a Permitted Transferee of such Initiating Tag-Along Seller) or (y) if a Sale Transaction is entered into by the MD Stockholders that either is a Qualified Sale Transaction or has been approved by the SLP Stockholders (each of the transfers in the foregoing clauses (x) and (y), a “Tag-Along Sale”), then the Initiating Tag-Along Seller shall give, or direct the Company to give and the Company shall so promptly give, written notice (a “Tag-Along Sale Notice”) of such proposed transfer to all Eligible Tag-Along Sellers with respect to such Tag-Along Sale at least fifteen (15) days prior to each of the consummation of such proposed transfer and the delivery of a Tag-Along Sale Notice setting forth (i) the number and type of each class of DTI Securities proposed to be transferred, (ii) the consideration to be received for such DTI Securities by such Initiating Tag-Along Seller, including any Additional Consideration to be received, (iii) the identity of the purchaser (the “Tag-Along Buyer”), (iv) a copy of all definitive documents relating to such Tag-Along Sale, including all documents that the Eligible Tag-Along Seller would be required to execute in order to participate in such Tag-Along Sale and all other agreements or documents referred to, or referenced, therein, (v) a detailed summary of all material terms and conditions of the proposed transfer, (vi) the fraction, expressed as a percentage, determined by dividing the number of DTI Securities to be purchased from the Initiating Tag-Along Seller and its Permitted Transferees by the total number of DTI Securities held by the Initiating Tag-Along Seller and its Permitted Transferees (the “Tag-Along Sale Percentage”) and (vii) an invitation to each Eligible Tag-Along Seller to irrevocably agree to include in the Tag-Along Sale up to a number of DTI Securities held by such Eligible Tag-Along Seller equal to the product of the total number of DTI Securities held by such Eligible Tag-Along Seller multiplied by the Tag-Along Sale Percentage, subject to adjustment pursuant to the Tag-Along Sale Priority and the Tag-Along Sale Proration as contemplated in Section 4.4(c) (such amount of DTI Securities with respect to each Eligible Tag-Along Seller, such Eligible Tag-Along Seller’s “Tag-Along Shares”). In the event that any MD Related Party directly or indirectly receives any compensation or other consideration or

benefit arising out of or in connection with the applicable Tag-Along Sale (other than any bona fide cash and/or equity compensation (whether in the form of an initial equity grant or otherwise) for service as an executive officer of the acquiring or surviving company or any of their Subsidiaries or, with respect to MD Related Parties, any bona fide commercial arrangement that is not a “Related Party Transaction” because of the proviso of the definition thereof between an MD Related Party and the proposed Tag-Along Buyer or any of its Affiliates which commercial arrangement has been binding and in full force and effect (or, in the absence of a binding legal arrangement, to the extent a course of dealing has been in place) for at least twelve (12) months prior to the date that the Tag-Along Sale Notice is provided to the Eligible Tag-Along Seller) pursuant to any non-competition, non-solicitation, no-hire or other arrangement separate from the transfer of the DTI Securities (“Additional Consideration”), the value of such Additional Consideration (as reasonably determined by the Board, subject to the consent of the SLP Stockholders not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) shall be deemed to have been part of the consideration paid or payable to the MD Stockholders in respect of their DTI Securities in such Tag-Along Sale and shall be reflected in the amount offered by the Tag-Along Buyer set forth in the applicable Tag-Along Sale Notice. In the event that more than one MD Stockholder proposes to execute a Tag-Along Sale as an Initiating Tag-Along Seller, then all such transferring MD Stockholders shall be treated as the Initiating Tag-Along Seller, and the DTI Securities held and to be transferred by such MD Stockholders shall be aggregated as set forth in Section 8.17, including for purposes of calculating the applicable Tag-Along Sale Percentage. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 4.4 to the contrary, but subject to Section 4.4(c), if the Initiating Tag-Along Seller is transferring Common Stock or vested in-the-money Company Stock Options in such Tag-Along Sale, each of the Eligible Tag-Along Sellers shall be entitled to transfer the same proportion of DTI Securities held by such Eligible Tag-Along Seller as the proportion of the Initiating Tag-Along Seller’s Common Stock and vested in-the-money Company Stock Options relative to the Initiating Tag-Along Seller’s total number of such DTI Securities that are being sold by the Initiating Tag-Along Seller in such Tag-Along Sale. For the avoidance of doubt, no DTI Securities that are subject to any vesting or similar condition may be transferred prior to such time as such DTI Securities have fully vested; provided, that it is understood that if such DTI Securities vest in connection with such Tag-Along Sale, such DTI Securities may be transferred in connection therewith in accordance with this Section 4.4.

(b) Upon delivery of a Tag-Along Sale Notice, each Eligible Tag-Along Seller may elect to include all or a portion of such Eligible Tag-Along Seller’s Tag-Along Shares in such Tag-Along Sale (Eligible Tag-Along Sellers who make such an election being an “Electing Tag-Along Seller” and, together with the Initiating Tag-Along Seller and all other Persons (other than any Affiliates of the Initiating Tag-Along Seller) who otherwise are transferring, or have exercised a contractual or other right to transfer, DTI Securities in connection with such Tag-Along Sale, the “Tag-Along Sellers”), at the same price per share equivalent of Common Stock and pursuant to the same terms and conditions as agreed to by the Initiating Tag-Along Seller and otherwise in accordance with this Section 4.4, by sending an irrevocable written notice (a “Tag-Along Participation Notice”) to the Initiating Tag-Along Seller within fifteen (15) days of the date the Tag-Along Sale Notice is received by such Eligible Tag-Along Seller, indicating such Electing Tag-Along Seller’s irrevocable election, subject to Section 4.4(d), to include its Tag-Along Shares in the Tag-Along Sale and setting forth the number of Eligible Tag-Along Seller’s Tag-Along Shares it elects to include. Following such fifteen (15) day period, each Electing Tag-Along Seller that has delivered a Tag-Along

Participation Notice shall be entitled to sell to such proposed transferee, on the same terms and conditions as, and concurrently with, the other Electing Tag-Along Sellers and the Initiating Tag-Along Seller, such Electing Tag-Along Seller’s Tag-Along Shares it elects to include, which terms and conditions have been set forth in the Tag-Along Sale Notice, subject to the Tag-Along Sale Priority and the Tag-Along Sale Proration as contemplated in Section 4.4(c). Each Eligible Tag-Along Seller who does not deliver a Tag-Along Participation Notice within such fifteen (15) day period shall have waived and be deemed to have waived all of such Eligible Tag-Along Seller’s rights with respect to such Tag-Along Sale. For the avoidance of doubt, it is understood that in order to be entitled to exercise its right to include Tag-Along Shares in a Tag-Along Sale pursuant to this Section 4.4, each Electing Tag-Along Seller must agree to make the same representations and warranties, covenants, indemnities and agreements to the Tag-Along Buyer as made by the Initiating Tag-Along Seller and any Electing Tag-Along Seller in connection with the Tag-Along Sale (and shall be subject to the same escrow or other holdback arrangements as such Persons so long as such escrows or other holdbacks are proportionately based on the amount of consideration received for the sale of DTI Securities in such Tag-Along Sale transaction); provided, that:

(i) each Electing Tag-Along Seller shall be entitled to receive its pro rata portion (based on the relative amount (and taking into account the per share equivalent of Common Stock) of DTI Securities sold in such Tag-Along Sale transaction) of any deferred consideration or indemnification payments relating to such Tag-Along Sale (provided, however, that, with respect to any unexercised Company Stock Options proposed to be transferred in such Tag-Along Sale by any Tag-Along Seller, the per share consideration in respect thereof shall be reduced by the exercise price of such options or, if required pursuant to the terms of such options or such Tag-Along Sale, such Tag-Along Seller must exercise the relevant option and transfer the relevant shares of Common Stock (rather than the option) (in each case, net of any amounts required to be withheld by the Company in connection with such exercise));

(ii) the aggregate amount of liability of each Electing Tag-Along Seller shall not exceed the proceeds received by such Electing Tag-Along Seller in such Tag-Along Sale;

(iii) all indemnification obligations (other than with respect to the matters referenced in Section 4.4(b)(iv)) shall be on a several and not joint basis to the Tag-Along Sellers pro rata (based on the amount of consideration received by each Tag-Along Seller in the Tag-Along Sale transaction);

(iv) no Electing Tag-Along Seller shall be responsible for any indemnification obligations and/or liabilities (including through escrow or hold back arrangements) for (A) breaches or inaccuracies of representations and warranties made with respect to any other Tag-Along Seller’s (1) ownership of and title to DTI Securities, (2) organization and authority or (3) conflicts and consents and any other matter concerning such other Person and/or (B) breaches of any covenant specifically relating to any other Tag-Along Seller; and

(v) no Stockholders that have elected to be an Electing Tag-Along Seller shall be required in connection with such Tag-Along Sale transaction to agree to (A) any employee, customer or other non-solicitation, no-hire or other similar provision, (B) any non-competition or similar restrictive covenant and/or (C) any term that purports to bind any portfolio company or investment of any Electing Tag-Along Seller or any of their respective Affiliates.

(c) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 4.4 to the contrary, if the Initiating Tag-Along Seller is any of the MD Stockholders (or, for the avoidance of doubt, any of their Permitted Transferees) and such Initiating Tag-Along Seller seeks to transfer Common Stock representing a majority of the Common Stock beneficially owned by the MD Stockholders immediately following the Original Closing, then the number of Tag-Along Shares that an Eligible Tag-Along Seller may include in any Tag-Along Sale pursuant to this Section 4.4 shall be an amount equal to 100% of the equity securities in the Company, Dell and their respective Subsidiaries held by such Eligible Tag-Along Seller (such right, the “Tag-Along Sale Priority”). Further, in the event that Stockholders having the right to participate in a Tag-Along Sale (including the Initiating Tag-Along Seller, the “Participating Sellers”) have elected to include more DTI Securities in the aggregate than the Tag-Along Buyer is willing to purchase (the “Tag-Along Demand”), the number of DTI Securities permitted to be sold by the Participating Sellers shall be reduced such that each Tag-Along Seller is permitted to sell only its pro rata share of the Tag-Along Demand (in proportion to the number of DTI Securities held by each Participating Seller) (the “Tag-Along Sale Proration”); provided that, in a Tag-Along Sale subject to Tag-Along Sale Priority rights, the number of DTI Securities to be sold by Participating Sellers with Tag-Along Sale Priority shall not be reduced.

(d) Notwithstanding the delivery of any Tag-Along Sale Notice, all determinations as to whether to complete any Tag-Along Sale and as to the timing, manner, price and, subject to Section 4.4(b)(i) through (v), other terms and conditions of any such Tag-Along Sale shall be at the sole discretion of the Initiating Tag-Along Seller, and none of the Initiating Tag-Along Seller, its Affiliates and their respective Representatives shall have any liability to any Electing Tag-Along Seller arising from, relating to or in connection with the pursuit, consummation, postponement, abandonment or terms and conditions of any proposed Tag-Along Sale except to the extent such Initiating Tag-Along Seller failed to comply with the provisions of this Section 4.4; provided, that (i) if the Initiating Tag-Along Seller agrees to amend, restate, modify or supplement the terms and/or conditions of the Tag-Along Sale after such time that any Stockholder has elected to be an Electing Tag-Along Seller in accordance with the terms of this Section 4.4, the Initiating Tag-Along Seller shall promptly notify the Company and each Electing Tag-Along Seller of such amendment, restatement, modification and/or supplement and (ii) each such Electing Tag-Along Seller shall have the right to withdraw its Tag-Along Participation Notice by delivering written notice of such withdrawal to the Initiating Tag-Along Seller within five (5) Business Days of the date of receipt of such notice from the Initiating Tag-Along Seller.

(e) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 4.4 to the contrary, this Section 4.4 shall not apply to (i) any transfers of DTI Securities to a Permitted Transferee of the transferring Stockholder and/or (ii) any transfer of Common Stock in a registered public offering (whether in a Demand Registration, Piggyback Registration, Marketed Underwritten Shelf Take-

Down or otherwise), it being understood that participation rights in connection with transfers of Common Stock in a registered public offering (whether in a Demand Registration, Piggyback Registration, Marketed Underwritten Shelf Take-Down or otherwise) shall be governed by the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement.

(f) All reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Company, its Subsidiaries and/or the Tag-Along Sellers in connection with such Tag-Along Sale shall be allocated and borne on a pro rata basis by each Tag-Along Seller in accordance with the amount of consideration otherwise received by each Tag-Along Seller in such Tag-Along Sale. For the avoidance of doubt, it is understood that this Section 4.4(f) shall not prevent any Tag-Along Sale to be structured in a manner such that some or all of the such costs and expenses result in a pro rata reduction in the consideration received by the Tag-Along Sellers in such Tag-Along Sale.

(g) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the Initiating Tag-Along Seller has not completed the proposed Tag-Along Sale within one hundred twenty (120) days following delivery of the Tag-Along Sale Notice in accordance with this Section 4.4, the Initiating Tag-Along Seller may not then effect such proposed Tag-Along Sale without again complying with the provisions of this Section 4.4; provided, that if such proposed Tag-Along Sale is subject to, and conditioned on, one or more prior regulatory approvals, then such one hundred twenty (120) day period shall be extended solely to the extent necessary until no later than the expiration of ten (10) days after all such approvals shall have been received.

(h) The “tag-along” rights described in this Section 4.4 shall survive the Closing and shall automatically terminate upon the earlier of (i) the 18-month anniversary of the Closing Date and (ii) such time following the Closing Date that the MD Stockholders no longer beneficially own Common Stock representing a majority of the Common Stock beneficially owned by the MD Stockholders immediately following the Original Closing Date, provided, that in addition to any other applicable provisions in this Section 4.4 (including the Tag-Along Sale Priority and the Tag-Along Sale Proration), such transfer of DTI Securities shall also be subject to the Priority Sell-Down pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement; provided, further, that any registered offering of DTI Securities shall be governed by the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement.

Section 4.5. Diligence Access and Cooperation. The Company agrees to provide, and shall cause its Subsidiaries and controlled Affiliates and its and their respective officers, employees, financial advisors, attorneys, accountants, consultants, agents and other representatives to provide, such cooperation as may reasonably be requested (including with respect to timeliness) in connection with and to assist in the structuring and/or facilitation of any sale or transfer of DTI Securities by any SLP Stockholder and/or their respective Permitted Transferees permitted by this ARTICLE IV. Such reasonable cooperation will include (a) participation in meetings, drafting sessions and due diligence sessions, (b) access to the properties, facilities, material contracts and books and records, including financial statements, projections and accountants’ work papers, (c) access to the officers, management, employees, financial advisors, attorneys, accountants, consultants, agents and other representatives of the Company and its Subsidiaries as may be required or requested in connection with such transaction, (d) promptly furnishing to the transferor, transferee or acquiror and its or their

advisors and representatives financial and other pertinent information regarding the Company and its Subsidiaries as may be reasonably requested by the transferor and (e) assisting the transferor and their advisors and/or representatives in the preparation and execution of any documents in connection with such transfer or sale, each of subclauses (a) through (e) to the extent reasonably requested and required for such sale or transfer to be effectuated. Prior to the Company, its Subsidiaries or its or their respective officers, employees, financial advisors, attorneys, accountants, consultants, agents and other representatives providing any Confidential Information to a third party as contemplated in this Section 4.5, such third party shall be required to execute a confidentiality agreement as provided for in Section 5.3(c)(ii).

ARTICLE V

ADDITIONAL AGREEMENTS

Section 5.1. Further Assurances. From time to time, at the reasonable request of the SLP Stockholders and without further consideration, each party hereto shall execute and deliver such additional documents and take all such further action as may be necessary or appropriate to consummate and make effective, in the most expeditious manner practicable, the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

In the event that a Covered Person acquires knowledge of a potential transaction or matter which may constitute a corporate opportunity for both (x) the Covered Person in his or her capacity as a partner, member, employee, officer or director of the SLP Stockholders and (y) the Company or any Specified Subsidiary, the Covered Person shall not have any duty to offer or communicate information regarding such corporate opportunity to the Company or any Specified Subsidiary.

(a) Each Stockholder agrees to keep confidential and not disclose to any third party any materials and/or information provided to it by or on behalf of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (which for the purposes of this Section 5.3 shall include VMware and its subsidiaries), and, subject to Section 5.3(b), not to use any such information other than in connection with its investment in the Company (“Confidential Information”); provided, however, that the term “Confidential Information” does not include information that:

(i) is already in such recipient’s possession (provided, that such information is not subject to another confidentiality agreement with or other obligation of secrecy to any Person);

(ii) is or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure, directly or indirectly, by such recipient or its Representatives;

(iii) is or becomes available to such recipient on a non-confidential basis from a source other than any of the Stockholders or any of their respective Representatives (provided, that such source is not known by such recipient to be bound by a confidentiality agreement with or other obligation of secrecy to any Person); and/or

(iv) is or was independently developed by such recipient or its Representatives without the use of any Confidential Information.

(b) The Company acknowledges that the SLP Stockholders’ (including its affiliated private equity funds’) review of the Confidential Information will inevitably enhance their knowledge and understanding of the Company’s and its Subsidiaries’ industries in a way that cannot be separated from such Stockholder’s or its affiliated private equity funds’ other knowledge and the Company agrees that Section 5.3(a) shall not restrict such Stockholder’s (including its affiliated private equity funds’) use of such overall knowledge and understanding of such industries, including in connection with the purchase, sale, consideration of and decisions related to other investments and serving on the boards of such investments.

(c) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 5.3 to the contrary, any such Stockholder may disclose Confidential Information to:

(i) such Stockholder’s and its Affiliates’ Representatives who are subject to a customary confidentiality obligation to such Stockholder or its Affiliates;

(vi) other Person(s) with the Company’s prior written consent.

Section 5.4. Certain Tax Matters.

(a) Each of the SLP Stockholders and the Company acknowledge that, in connection with the Original Merger, (i) the contribution by the MD Stockholders of shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Dell and cash to the Company in exchange for shares of Original Stock and (ii) the contribution by the other Stockholders of shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of Dell and cash to the Company in exchange for shares of Original Stock, in each case, at the Original Closing, taken together (the “Contribution”), were intended to qualify as an exchange described in Section 351 of the Code. In connection therewith, each of the Initial SLP Stockholders agreed, without the prior written consent of the MD Stockholders (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); provided, that it shall be deemed to be unreasonable to withhold such consent if the MD Stockholders have been advised by their counsel that the Contribution fails to qualify as an exchange described in Section 351 of the Code), (x) not to take any position inconsistent with the treatment of the Contribution as an exchange described in Section 351 of the Code, except to the extent otherwise required pursuant to a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code or a change in law after the date of the Contribution and (y) not to take any action that could reasonably be expected to cause the Contribution to fail to qualify as an exchange described in Section 351 of the Code (including any action that is inconsistent with the representations warranties or covenants made by such Stockholder in the Original Agreement).

(b) Each Stockholder that was required to deliver a tax representation letter to counsel to the MD Stockholders pursuant to Section 2.17 of the Interim Investors Agreement (a “Tax Representation Letter”), hereby represents and warrants to the MD Stockholders, as of the Original Closing Date, as follows: (i) such Stockholder has delivered the Tax Representation Letter in accordance with the requirements of Section 2.17 of the Interim Investors Agreement and (ii) the representations and warranties of such Stockholder set forth in such Tax Representation Letter were true, correct and complete as of the Original Closing Date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any Tax Representation Letter delivered by the Company, in no event shall the Company be liable to any party (including the MD Stockholders) for the failure of any representation, warranty or covenant contained in its Tax Representation Letter to be true, correct or complete or for the Company’s failure to comply with any covenant contained in such Tax Representation Letter.

To the extent permitted by Section 8.9,

ARTICLE VII

INDEMNIFICATION; INSURANCE

Section 7.1. Indemnification of Directors. In addition to any other indemnification rights that the directors have pursuant to the Organizational Documents of the Company, each of the directors of the Company shall have the right to enter into, and the Company agrees to enter into, an indemnification agreement substantially in the form of Annex C attached hereto (the “Director Indemnification Agreements”).

Section 7.2. Indemnification of Stockholders.

(a) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Company will, and will cause each of the Specified Subsidiaries to, indemnify, exonerate and hold the Stockholders and each of their respective partners, stockholders, members, Affiliates, directors, officers, fiduciaries, managers, controlling Persons, employees and agents and each of the partners, stockholders, members, Affiliates, directors, officers, fiduciaries, managers, controlling Persons, employees and agents of each of the foregoing (collectively, the “Indemnitees”) free and harmless from and against any and all actions, causes of action, suits, claims, proceedings, liabilities, losses, damages and costs and out-of-pocket expenses in connection therewith (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred by the Indemnitees or any of them before or after the date of this Agreement (collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”), arising out of any action, cause of action, suit, arbitration or claim arising directly or indirectly out of, or in any way relating to, (i) such Stockholder’s or its Affiliates’ ownership of Securities or such Stockholder’s or its Affiliates’ control or ability to influence the Company or any of its Subsidiaries (which for purposes of this ARTICLE VII shall include VMware and its subsidiaries) or their respective predecessors or successors (other than any such Indemnified Liabilities (x) to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities arise out of any willful breach of this Agreement by such Indemnitee or its Affiliates or other related Persons or (y) without limiting any other rights to indemnification, to the extent such control or the ability to control the Company or any of its Subsidiaries derives from such Stockholder’s or its Affiliates’ capacity as an officer or director of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries) or (ii) the business, operations, properties, assets or other rights or liabilities of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries; provided, however, that if and to the extent that the foregoing undertaking may be unavailable or unenforceable for any reason, the Company will, and will cause the Specified Subsidiaries to, make the maximum contribution to the payment and satisfaction of each of the Indemnified Liabilities which is permissible under applicable law. For the purposes of this Section 7.2, none of the circumstances described in the limitations contained in the proviso in the immediately preceding sentence shall be deemed to apply absent a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to such effect, in which case to the extent any such limitation is so determined to apply to any Indemnitee as to any previously advanced indemnity payments made by the Company or any of the Specified Subsidiaries, then such payments shall be promptly repaid by such Indemnitee to the Company and the Specified Subsidiaries, as applicable. The rights of any Indemnitee to indemnification hereunder will be in addition to any other rights any

such Person may have under any other agreement or instrument to which such Indemnitee is or becomes a party or is or otherwise becomes a beneficiary or under law or regulation or under the Organizational Documents of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries.

(b) The Company acknowledges and agrees that the Company shall, and to the extent applicable shall cause the Specified Subsidiaries to, be fully and primarily responsible for the payment to the Indemnitee in respect of Indemnified Liabilities in connection with any Jointly Indemnifiable Claim, pursuant to and in accordance with (as applicable) the terms of (i) applicable law, (ii) the Organizational Documents of the Company, (iii) the Director Indemnification Agreements, (iv) this Agreement, (v) any other agreement between the Company or any Specified Subsidiary and the Indemnitee pursuant to which the Indemnitee is indemnified, (vi) the laws of the jurisdiction of incorporation or organization of any Specified Subsidiary and/or (vii) the Organizational Documents of any Specified Subsidiary (clauses (i) through (vii) collectively, the “Indemnification Sources”), irrespective of any right of recovery the Indemnitee may have from any Indemnitee-Related Entities. Under no circumstance shall the Company or any Specified Subsidiary be entitled to any right of subrogation or contribution by the Indemnitee-Related Entities and no right of advancement or recovery the Indemnitee may have from the Indemnitee-Related Entities shall reduce or otherwise alter the rights of the Indemnitee or the obligations of the Company or any Specified Subsidiary under the Indemnification Sources. In the event that any of the Indemnitee-Related Entities shall make any payment to the Indemnitee in respect of indemnification with respect to any Jointly Indemnifiable Claim, (x) the Company shall, and to the extent applicable shall cause the Specified Subsidiaries to, reimburse the Indemnitee-Related Entity making such payment to the extent of such payment promptly upon written demand from such Indemnitee-Related Entity, (y) to the extent not previously and fully reimbursed by the Company and/or any Specified Subsidiary pursuant to clause (x), the Indemnitee-Related Entity making such payment shall be subrogated to the extent of the outstanding balance of such payment to all of the rights of recovery of the Indemnitee against the Company and/or any Specified Subsidiary, as applicable, and (z) the Indemnitee shall execute all papers reasonably required and shall do all things that may be reasonably necessary to secure such rights, including the execution of such documents as may be necessary to enable the Indemnitee-Related Entities effectively to bring suit to enforce such rights.

(c) The Company and Stockholders agree that each of the Indemnitees and Indemnitee-Related Entities shall be third-party beneficiaries with respect to this Section 7.2, entitled to enforce this Section 7.2 as though each such Indemnitee and Indemnitee-Related Entity were a party to this Agreement. The Company shall cause each of the Specified Subsidiaries to perform the terms and obligations of this Section 7.2 as though each such Specified Subsidiary were a party to this Agreement.

Section 7.3. Insurance. The Company shall, and shall cause the Specified Subsidiaries to, at all times maintain a policy or policies of insurance providing directors’ and officers’ liability insurance to the extent reasonably satisfactory to the SLP Stockholders, and the Indemnitees shall be covered by such policy or policies, in accordance with its or their terms, to the maximum extent of the coverage provided to any other director or officer of the Company or any Specified Subsidiary. If, at the time the Company or any of the Specified Subsidiaries receives from an Indemnitee any notice of the commencement of any action, cause of action,

suit, claim or proceeding, and the Company or a Specified Subsidiary has such insurance in effect which would reasonably be expected to cover such action, cause of action, suit, claim or proceeding, the Company shall give prompt notice of the commencement of such action, cause of action, suit, claim or proceeding to the insurers in accordance with the procedures set forth in such policy or policies. The Company shall thereafter take all necessary or reasonably desirable action to cause such insurers to pay, on behalf of the Indemnitees, all amounts payable as a result of such action, cause of action, suit, claim or proceeding in accordance with the terms of such policy or policies.

Section 8.2. Effectiveness. This Agreement shall become effective on the Closing Date upon execution of this Agreement by each of the Company and the SLP Stockholders. In the event that the Merger Agreement is terminated for any reason without the Closing having occurred, this Agreement shall not become effective and shall be void ab initio.

Section 8.3. Termination of First Restated Agreement. The parties hereto hereby agree that effective as of the effectiveness of this Agreement, and conditioned upon the concurrent effectiveness of the MD Stockholders Agreement and MSD Partners Stockholders Agreement, all rights and obligations of the Stockholders pursuant to the First Restated Agreement shall terminate; provided, that (i) Section 5.6 and ARTICLE VII of the First Restated Agreement shall survive such termination and remain in full force and effect in respect of any reimbursable expenses or rights to indemnification, as applicable, arising prior to the effectiveness of this Agreement and (ii) the foregoing shall not terminate, restrict or otherwise prejudice any other rights the Stockholders are entitled to pursuant to the First Restated Agreement arising prior to the effectiveness of this Agreement.

Section 8.4. Specific Performance. The parties hereto agree that the obligations imposed on them in this Agreement are special, unique and of an extraordinary character, and that, in the event of breach by any party, damages would not be an adequate remedy and each of

the other parties shall be entitled to specific performance and injunctive and other equitable relief in addition to any other remedy to which it may be entitled, at law or in equity. The parties hereto further agree to waive any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with the obtaining of any such injunctive or other equitable relief.

Section 8.5. Governing Law. This Agreement and all claims or causes of action (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) that may be based upon, arise out of or relate to this Agreement or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement (including any claim or cause of action based upon, arising out of or related to any representation or warranty made in or in connection with this Agreement) shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, regardless of the laws that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts of laws.

Section 8.6. Submissions to Jurisdictions; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL.

(a) Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably acknowledges and consents that any legal action or proceeding brought with respect to this Agreement or any of the obligations arising under or relating to this Agreement shall be brought and determined exclusively in the Court of Chancery in the State of Delaware (or, only if the Court of Chancery in the State of Delaware declines to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, any Federal court of the United States of America sitting in the State of Delaware), and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably submits to and accepts with regard to any such action or proceeding, for itself and in respect of its property, generally and unconditionally, the exclusive jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery in the State of Delaware (or, only if the Court of Chancery in the State of Delaware declines to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, any Federal court of the United States of America sitting in the State of Delaware). Each party hereby further irrevocably waives any claim that the Court of Chancery in the State of Delaware (or, only if the Court of Chancery in the State of Delaware declines to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, any Federal court of the United States of America sitting in the State of Delaware) lacks jurisdiction over such party, and agrees not to plead or claim, in any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby brought in the Court of Chancery in the State of Delaware (or, only if the Court of Chancery in the State of Delaware declines to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, any Federal court of the United States of America sitting in the State of Delaware), that any such court lacks jurisdiction over such party.

(b) Each party irrevocably consents to the service of process in any legal action or proceeding brought with respect to this Agreement or any of the obligations arising under or relating to this Agreement by the mailing of copies thereof by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, to such party, at its address for notices as provided in Section 8.14, such service to become effective ten (10) days after such mailing. Each party hereby irrevocably waives any objection to such service of process and further irrevocably waives and agrees not to plead or claim in any action or proceeding commenced hereunder or under any other documents contemplated hereby that service of process was in any way invalid or ineffective. Subject to Section 8.6(c), the foregoing shall not limit the rights of any party to serve process in any other manner permitted by applicable law. The foregoing consents to jurisdiction shall not constitute general consents to service of process in the State of Delaware for any purpose except as provided above and shall not be deemed to confer rights on any Person other than the respective parties to this Agreement.

(c) Each of the parties hereto hereby waives any right it may have under the laws of any jurisdiction to commence by publication any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement or any of the obligations under or relating to this Agreement. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives the objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any suit, action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement or any of the obligations arising under or relating to this Agreement in the Court of Chancery in the State of Delaware (or, only if the Court of Chancery in the State of Delaware declines to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, any Federal court of the United States of America sitting in the State of Delaware), and hereby further irrevocably waives and agrees not to plead or claim that the Court of Chancery in the State of Delaware (or, only if the Court of Chancery in the State of Delaware declines to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, any Federal court of the United States of America sitting in the State of Delaware) is not a convenient forum for any such suit, action or proceeding.

(d) The parties hereto agree that any judgment obtained by any party hereto or its successors or assigns in any action, suit or proceeding referred to above may, in the discretion of such party (or its successors or assigns), be enforced in any jurisdiction, to the extent permitted by applicable law.

(e) EACH OF THE PARTIES HEREBY WAIVES TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY WITH RESPECT TO ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. EACH OF THE PARTIES (I) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF ANY SUIT, ACTION OR PROCEEDING, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (II) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 8.6(E).

Section 8.7. Obligations. All obligations hereunder shall be satisfied in full without set-off, defense or counterclaim.

Section 8.8. Consents, Approvals and Actions. All actions required to be taken by, or approvals or consents of, the SLP Stockholders under this Agreement, the Management Stockholders Agreement, the Class A Stockholders Agreement, the Class C Stockholders Agreement and the Registration Rights Agreement shall be taken by consent or approval by, or agreement of, the holders of a majority of the DTI Securities held by the SLP Stockholders, and in each case such consent, approval or agreement shall constitute the necessary action, approval or consent by the SLP Stockholders.

Section 8.9. Amendment; Waiver.

(a) Except as set forth in Section 8.9(b), any amendment, modification, supplement or waiver to or of any provision of this Agreement shall require the prior written approval of the SLP Stockholders and the Company; provided, that if the express terms of any such amendment, modification, supplement or waiver disproportionately and adversely affects a Stockholder (other than the SLP Stockholders), it shall require the prior written consent of the holders of a majority of the DTI Securities held by such affected Stockholders and their Permitted Transferees in the aggregate.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) any addition of a transferee of DTI Securities or a recipient of DTI Securities as a party hereto pursuant to ARTICLE VI shall not constitute an amendment hereto and the applicable Joinder Agreement need be signed only by the Company and such transferee or recipient and (ii) the Company shall promptly amend the books and records of the Company appropriately and as and to the extent necessary to reflect the removal or addition of a Stockholder, any changes in the amount and/or type of DTI Securities beneficially owned by each Stockholder and/or the addition of a transferee of DTI Securities or a recipient of any DTI Securities, in each case, pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(c) Any amendment, modification, supplement or waiver to or of any provision of the MSD Partners Stockholders Agreement by the Company (except for Section 4.1(a) and Section 4.2 of the MSD Partners Stockholders Agreement) shall require the prior written approval of the SLP Stockholders for so long as the SLP Stockholders own DTI Securities. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any addition of a transferee of DTI Securities or a recipient of DTI Securities as a party to the MSD Partners Stockholders Agreement pursuant to ARTICLE VI thereto shall not constitute an amendment of the MSD Partners Stockholders Agreement and the applicable Joinder Agreement (as defined in the MSD Partners Stockholders Agreement) need be signed only by the Company and such transferee or recipient.

(d) Any failure by any party at any time to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement shall not be construed as a waiver of such provision or any other provisions hereof. The waiver by any party hereto of a breach of any provision of this Agreement shall not operate or be construed as a further or continuing waiver of such breach or as a waiver of any other or subsequent breach. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, no failure on the part of any party to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder, or otherwise available in respect hereof at law or in equity, shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of such right, power or remedy by such party preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy.

Section 8.10. Assignment of Rights By Stockholders.

(a) Subject to Section 8.10(b), no Stockholder may assign or transfer its rights under this Agreement except with the prior consent of the Company. Any purported assignment of rights or obligations under this Agreement in derogation of this Section 8.10 shall be null and void.

(b) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary (but without limiting the restrictions on transfer contained in ARTICLE IV), the SLP Stockholders may assign or transfer all of their rights under this Agreement to any Person to whom the SLP Stockholders transfer DTI Securities beneficially owned by the SLP Stockholders (and such transferee who is transferred such rights shall be deemed to be the SLP Stockholders for all purposes hereunder); provided, that the SLP Stockholders may only assign or transfer all of their rights under or pursuant to ARTICLE III (and thereafter the SLP Stockholders shall retain no such rights) to any Person or group of Affiliated Persons to whom the SLP Stockholders transfer greater than a majority of the DTI Securities beneficially owned by the SLP Stockholders immediately following the EMC Closing (as adjusted for any stock split, stock dividend, reverse stock split or similar event occurring after the EMC Closing) (and such transferee who is transferred such rights shall be deemed to be the SLP Stockholders for all purposes hereunder); provided, further, that the SLP Stockholders shall retain the right, at their election, to be deemed the “SLP Stockholders” for purposes of ARTICLE IV.

Section 8.11. Binding Effect. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the provisions hereof shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the parties’ successors and permitted assigns.

Section 8.12. Third Party Beneficiaries. Except for Section 3.4, Section 5.2, ARTICLE VII and Section 8.15 (which will be for the benefit of the Persons set forth therein, and any such Person will have the rights provided for therein), this Agreement does not create any rights, claims or benefits inuring to any Person that is not a party hereto, and it does not create or establish any third party beneficiary hereto.

Section 8.13. Termination of this Agreement. This Agreement shall terminate only (i) by written consent of the SLP Stockholders (for so long as the SLP Stockholders own DTI Securities) and the Company (which Company consent shall require the approval of the Special Committee during the Restricted Period); provided, that the SLP Stockholders may, in their sole discretion, terminate the SLP Stockholders’ rights and obligations under Section 3.1 at any time that they beneficially own less than 5.0% of the issued and outstanding Class C Common Stock (calculated in accordance with Rule 13d-3(d)(1)(i) of the Exchange Act or any successor thereto) or (ii) upon the dissolution or liquidation of the Company; provided, that Section 3.4 shall survive any such termination and remain in full force and effect; provided, further, that in the case of a termination pursuant to clause (i), Section 5.5 and ARTICLE VII shall survive any such termination and remain in full force and effect unless and solely to the extent expressly waived in writing, with reference to such provisions, by the SLP Stockholders.

Annex C

FORM OF DIRECTOR INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT

INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT

This Indemnification Agreement (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into, effective , by and between Dell Technologies Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and (“Indemnitee”). This Agreement shall supersede the prior indemnification agreement between the Company and Indemnitee dated as of and, for the avoidance of doubt, this Agreement shall apply to any Expenses, Indemnifiable Claims and Indemnifiable Losses incurred or arising on, prior to or after the date of this Agreement.

Recitals

Competent and experienced persons are reluctant to serve or to continue to serve as directors or officers of corporations unless they are provided with adequate protection through insurance or indemnification (or both) against claims against them arising out of their service and activities as directors.

B.	Uncertainties relating to the availability of adequate insurance for directors and officers have increased the difficulty for corporations to attract and retain competent and experienced persons to serve as directors or officers.

The Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) has determined that the continuation of present trends in litigation will make it more difficult to attract and retain competent and experienced persons to serve as directors or officers of the Company and, in some cases, of its subsidiaries, that this situation is detrimental to the best interests of the Company’s stockholders and that the Company should act to assure its directors and officers that there will be increased certainty of adequate protection in the future.

D.	It is reasonable, prudent and necessary for the Company to obligate itself contractually to indemnify its directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law in order to induce them to serve or continue to serve as directors or officers of the Company or its subsidiaries.

E.	Indemnitee’s willingness to continue to serve in his or her current capacity is predicated, in substantial part, upon the Company’s willingness to indemnify him or her to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of the State of Delaware and upon the other undertakings set forth in this Agreement.

In recognition of the need to provide Indemnitee with substantial protection against personal liability, in order to procure Indemnitee’s continued service, and to enhance Indemnitee’s ability to serve the Company in an effective manner, and in order to provide such protection pursuant to express contract rights (intended to be enforceable irrespective of any amendment to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws (collectively, the “Constituent Documents”), any

Change of Control (as defined in Section 1(a)) or any change in the composition of the Board), the Company wishes to provide in this Agreement for the indemnification of and the advancement of Expenses (as defined in Section 1(e)) to Indemnitee as set forth in this Agreement.

Now, therefore, for and in consideration of the foregoing premises, Indemnitee’s agreement to continue to serve the Company in his or her current capacity and the mutual covenants and agreements contained herein, the parties hereby agree as follows:

1.	*Certain Definitions —* In addition to terms defined elsewhere herein, the following terms shall have the respective meanings indicated below when used in this Agreement:

(A)

any acquisition directly from the Company or any Controlled Affiliate of the Company;

(B)

any acquisition by the Company or any Controlled Affiliate of the Company;

(C)

any acquisition by any employee benefit plan (or related trust) sponsored or maintained by the Company or any Controlled Affiliate of the Company;

Dell, his Affiliates or Associates (as such terms are defined in Rule 12b-2 promulgated under the Exchange Act), his heirs or any trust or foundation to which he has transferred or may transfer Outstanding Company Common Stock or Outstanding Company Voting Securities; or

(E)

any acquisition by any entity or its security holders pursuant to a transaction that complies with clauses (A), (B), and (C) of paragraph (iii) below;

(ii)

Individuals who, as of the date of this Agreement, constitute the Board (collectively, the “Incumbent Directors”) cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority of the Board; provided, however, that any individual who becomes a director of the Company subsequent to the date of this Agreement and whose election or appointment by the Board or nomination for election by the Company’s stockholders was approved by a vote of at least a majority of the then Incumbent Directors, shall be considered as an Incumbent Director, unless such individual’s initial assumption of office occurs as a result of an actual or threatened election contest with respect to the election or removal of directors or other actual or threatened solicitation of proxies or consents by or on behalf of a Person other than the Board;

(iii)

Consummation of a reorganization, merger, consolidation, sale or other disposition of all or substantially all the assets of the Company or an acquisition of assets of another corporation (a “Business Combination”), unless, in each case, following such Business Combination (A) all or substantially all of the individuals and entities who were the beneficial owners, respectively, of the Outstanding Company Common Stock and Outstanding Company Voting Securities immediately prior to such Business Combination beneficially own, directly or indirectly, more than 50% of, respectively, the then outstanding shares of common stock and the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, as the case may be, of the corporation resulting from such Business Combination (including a corporation that as a result of such transaction owns the Company or all or substantially all of the Company’s assets either directly or through one or more subsidiaries) in substantially the same proportions as their ownership, immediately prior to such Business Combination, of the Outstanding Company Common Stock and Outstanding Company Voting Securities, as the case may be, (B) no Person (excluding any employee benefit plan (or related trust) of the Company or the corporation resulting from such Business Combination and any Person referred to in clause (D) of paragraph (i) above) beneficially owns, directly or indirectly, 15% or more of, respectively, the then outstanding shares of common stock of the corporation resulting from such Business Combination or the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities of such corporation except to the extent that such ownership of the Company existed prior to the Business Combination and (C) at least a majority of the members of

the board of directors of the corporation resulting from such Business Combination were Incumbent Directors at the time of the execution of the initial agreement, or of the action of the Board, providing for such Business Combination;

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall a Change in Control be deemed to have occurred if, after the occurrence of any of the events described in Sections 1(a)(i), 1(a)(ii), 1(a)(iii), 1(a)(iv) or 1(a)(v), Dell Technologies Inc., a Delaware corporation, directly or indirectly through a Controlled Affiliate, beneficially owns a majority of the combined voting power of the then outstanding voting securities entitled to vote generally in the election of directors.

(b)

For purposes of this definition, the term “control” shall mean the possession, directly or indirectly, of the power to direct or cause the direction of the management or policies of an entity or enterprise, whether through the ownership of voting securities, through other voting rights, by contract or otherwise; provided, however, that direct or indirect beneficial ownership of capital stock or other interests in an entity or enterprise entitling the holder to cast 20% or more of the total number of votes generally entitled to be cast in the election of directors (or persons performing comparable functions) of such entity or enterprise shall be deemed to constitute “control” for purposes of this definition.

(e)

“Expenses” shall mean all costs, expenses (including attorneys’ and experts’ fees and expenses) and obligations paid or incurred in connection with investigating, defending (including affirmative defenses and counterclaims), being a witness in or participating in (including on appeal), or preparing to investigate, defend, be a witness in or participate in (including on appeal), any Claim relating to an Indemnifiable Claim.

(f)

“Indemnifiable Claim” shall mean any Claim based upon, arising out of or resulting from any of the following:

(i)

Any actual, alleged or suspected act or failure to act by Indemnitee in his or her capacity as a director or officer of the Company or as a director, officer, employee, member, manager, trustee, fiduciary or agent (collectively, a “Representative”) of any Controlled Affiliate or other corporation, limited liability company, partnership, joint venture, employee benefit plan, trust or other entity or enterprise, whether or not for profit, as to which Indemnitee is or was serving at the request of the Company as a Representative;

(ii)

Any actual, alleged or suspected act or failure to act by Indemnitee with respect to any business, transaction, communication, filing, disclosure or other activity of the Company or any other entity or enterprise referred to in clause (i) of this Section 1(f); or

In addition to any service at the actual request of the Company, for purposes of this Agreement, Indemnitee shall be deemed to be serving or to have served at the request of the Company as a Representative of another entity or enterprise if Indemnitee is or was serving as a director, officer, employee, member, manager, trustee, fiduciary or agent of such entity or enterprise and (A) such entity or enterprise is or at the time of such service was a Controlled Affiliate, (B) such entity or enterprise is or at the time of such service was an employee benefit plan (or related trust) sponsored or maintained by the Company or a Controlled Affiliate or (C) the Company or a Controlled Affiliate directly or indirectly caused Indemnitee to be nominated, elected, appointed, designated, employed, engaged or selected to serve in such capacity.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the term “Independent Counsel” shall not include any person who, under the applicable standards of professional conduct then prevailing, would have a conflict of interest in representing either the Company or Indemnitee in an action to determine Indemnitee’s rights under this Agreement.

(i)

“Losses” means any and all Expenses, damages (including punitive, exemplary and the multiplied portion of any damages), losses, liabilities, judgments, payments, fines, penalties (whether civil, criminal or other), awards and amounts paid in settlement (including all interest, assessments and other charges paid or incurred in connection with or with respect to any of the foregoing).

Indemnification Obligation — Subject to Section 9, the Company shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless Indemnitee, to the fullest extent permitted by the laws of the State of Delaware in effect on the date hereof or as such laws may from time to time hereafter be amended to increase the scope of such permitted indemnification, against any and all Indemnifiable Claims and Indemnifiable Losses.

3.	*Exclusions* – Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement, the Company shall not be obligated under this Agreement to make any indemnification payment in connection with any Claim involving Indemnitee:

(a)

for which payment has actually been made to or on behalf of Indemnitee under any insurance policy or other indemnity provision, except with respect to any excess Losses beyond the amount paid under any insurance policy or other indemnity provision; or

(b)

for (i) an accounting of profits made from the purchase and sale (or sale and purchase) by Indemnitee of securities of the Company within the meaning of Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act or similar provisions of state statutory law or common law, (ii) any reimbursement of the Company by Indemnitee of any bonus or other incentive-based or equity-based compensation or of any profits realized by Indemnitee from the sale of

securities of the Company, as required in each case under the Exchange Act (including any such reimbursements that arise from an accounting restatement of the Company pursuant to Section 304 of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ Act of 2002 (the “▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ Act”), or the payment to the Company of profits arising from the purchase and sale by Indemnitee of securities in violation of Section 306 of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ Act) or (iii) any reimbursement of the Company by Indemnitee of any compensation pursuant to any compensation recoupment or clawback policy adopted by the Board or the compensation committee of the Board, including but not limited to any such policy adopted to comply with stock exchange listing requirements implementing Section 10D of the Exchange Act; or

(c)

except as provided in Sections 5 and 24 of this Agreement, in connection with any Claim initiated by Indemnitee, including any Claim initiated by Indemnitee against the Company or its directors, officers, employees or other indemnitees, unless (i) the Board authorized the Claim prior to its initiation or (ii) the Company provides the indemnification, in its sole discretion, pursuant to the powers vested in the Company under applicable law.

Advancement of Expenses — Indemnitee shall have the right to advancement by the Company prior to the final disposition of any Indemnifiable Claim of any and all Expenses relating to, arising out of or resulting from any Indemnifiable Claim paid or incurred by Indemnitee and as to which Indemnitee provides supporting documentation. Indemnitee’s right to such advancement is not subject to the satisfaction of any standard of conduct. Without limiting the generality or effect of the foregoing, within 15 calendar days after any request by Indemnitee, the Company shall, in accordance with such request (but without duplication), (a) pay such Expenses on behalf of Indemnitee, (b) advance to Indemnitee funds in an amount sufficient to pay such Expenses or (c) reimburse Indemnitee for such Expenses; provided, however, that Indemnitee shall repay, without interest, any amounts actually advanced to Indemnitee that, at the final disposition of the Indemnifiable Claim to which the advance related, were in excess of amounts paid or incurred by Indemnitee with respect to Expenses relating to, arising out of or resulting from such Indemnifiable Claim. Indemnitee shall qualify for advances upon the execution and delivery to the Company of this Agreement, which shall constitute an undertaking providing that Indemnitee undertakes to repay the amounts advanced (without interest) to the extent that it ultimately is determined that Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified by the Company. No other form of undertaking shall be required other than the execution of this Agreement. This Section 4 shall not apply to any claim made by Indemnitee for which indemnity is excluded pursuant to Section 3.

5.	*Indemnification for Additional Expenses —* Without limiting the generality or effect of the foregoing, the Company shall indemnify and hold harmless Indemnitee against and, if requested by Indemnitee, shall reimburse

Indemnitee for, or advance to Indemnitee, within 15 calendar days of such request accompanied by supporting documentation for specific Expenses to be reimbursed or advanced, any and all Expenses paid or incurred by Indemnitee in connection with any Claim made, instituted or conducted by Indemnitee for (a) indemnification or reimbursement or advance payment of Expenses by the Company under any provision of this Agreement or under any other agreement or provision of the Constituent Documents now or hereafter in effect relating to Indemnifiable Claims or (b) recovery under any directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policies maintained by the Company, regardless in each case of whether Indemnitee ultimately is determined to be entitled to such indemnification, reimbursement, advance or insurance recovery, as the case may be; provided, however, that Indemnitee shall return, without interest, any such advance of Expenses (or portion thereof) that remains unspent at the final disposition of the Claim to which the advance related.

Indemnification For Expenses of a Witness — Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law and to the extent that Indemnitee is, by reason of an Indemnifiable Claim, a witness or otherwise asked to participate in any Claim to which Indemnitee is not a party, Indemnitee shall be indemnified against all Expenses actually and reasonably incurred by Indemnitee or on Indemnitee’s behalf in connection therewith.

Partial Indemnity — If Indemnitee is entitled under any provision of this Agreement to indemnification by the Company for some or a portion of any Indemnifiable Loss but not for all of the total amount thereof, the Company shall nevertheless indemnify Indemnitee for the portion thereof to which Indemnitee is entitled.

Procedure for Notification — To obtain indemnification under this Agreement with respect to an Indemnifiable Claim or Indemnifiable Loss, Indemnitee shall submit to the Company a written request therefor, including a brief description (based upon information then available to Indemnitee) of such Indemnifiable Claim or Indemnifiable Loss. If, at the time of the receipt of such request, the Company has directors’ and officers’ liability insurance in effect under which coverage for such Indemnifiable Claim or Indemnifiable Loss is potentially available, the Company shall give prompt written notice of such Indemnifiable Claim or Indemnifiable Loss to the applicable insurers in accordance with the procedures set forth in the applicable policies. The Company shall provide to Indemnitee a copy of such notice delivered to the applicable insurers and copies of all subsequent correspondence between the Company and such insurers regarding the Indemnifiable Claim or Indemnifiable Loss, in each case substantially concurrently with the delivery or receipt thereof by the Company. The failure by Indemnitee to timely notify the Company of any Indemnifiable Claim or Indemnifiable Loss shall not relieve the Company from any liability hereunder unless, and only to the extent that, the Company did not otherwise learn of such Indemnifiable Claim or Indemnifiable Loss and such failure results in forfeiture by the Company of substantial defenses, rights or insurance coverage.

9.	*Determination of Right to Indemnification —*

(a)

To the extent that Indemnitee shall have been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any Indemnifiable Claim or any portion thereof or in defense of any issue or matter therein, including dismissal without prejudice, Indemnitee shall be indemnified against all Indemnifiable Losses relating to, arising out of or resulting from such Indemnifiable Claim in accordance with Section 2 and no Standard of Conduct Determination (as defined in paragraph (b) below) shall be required.

(b)

To the extent that the provisions of Section 9(a) are inapplicable to an Indemnifiable Claim that shall have been finally disposed of, any determination of whether Indemnitee has satisfied any applicable standard of conduct under Delaware law that is a legally required condition precedent to indemnification of Indemnitee hereunder against Indemnifiable Losses relating to, arising out of or resulting from such Indemnifiable Claim (a “Standard of Conduct Determination”) shall be made as follows:

(i)

If a Change of Control has not occurred, or if a Change of Control has occurred but Indemnitee has requested that the Standard of Conduct Determination be made pursuant to this clause (i):

(A)

By a majority vote of the Disinterested Directors, even if less than a quorum of the Board;

(B)

If such Disinterested Directors so direct, by a majority vote of a committee of Disinterested Directors designated by a majority vote of all Disinterested Directors; or

(C)

If there are no such Disinterested Directors, by Independent Counsel in a written opinion addressed to the Board, a copy of which shall be delivered to Indemnitee; and

(ii)

If a Change of Control has occurred and Indemnitee has not requested that the Standard of Conduct Determination be made pursuant to clause (i) above, by Independent Counsel in a written opinion addressed to the Board, a copy of which shall be delivered to Indemnitee.

Indemnitee will cooperate with the person or persons making such Standard of Conduct Determination, including providing to such person or persons, upon reasonable advance request, any documentation or information which is not privileged or otherwise protected from disclosure

and which is reasonably available to Indemnitee and reasonably necessary to such determination. The Company shall indemnify and hold harmless Indemnitee against and, if requested by Indemnitee, shall reimburse Indemnitee for, or advance to Indemnitee, within 15 calendar days of such request, accompanied by supporting documentation for specific expenses to be reimbursed or advanced, any and all costs and expenses (including attorneys’ and experts’ fees and expenses) incurred by Indemnitee in so cooperating with the person making such Standard of Conduct Determination.

(c)

The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause any Standard of Conduct Determination required under Section 9(b) to be made as promptly as practicable. If (i) the person or persons empowered or selected under Section 9(b) to make the Standard of Conduct Determination shall not have made a determination within 30 days after the later of (A) receipt by the Company of written notice from Indemnitee advising the Company of the final disposition of the applicable Indemnifiable Claim (the date of such receipt being the “Notification Date”) and (B) the selection of an Independent Counsel, if such determination is to be made by Independent Counsel, that is permitted under the provisions of Section 9(e) to make such determination and (ii) Indemnitee shall have fulfilled his or her obligations set forth in the second sentence of Section 9(b), then Indemnitee shall be deemed to have satisfied the applicable standard of conduct; provided, however, that such 30-day period may be extended for a reasonable time, not to exceed an additional 30 days, if the person making such determination in good faith requires such additional time to obtain or evaluate documentation or information relating thereto.

(d)

If (i) Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification hereunder against any Indemnifiable Losses pursuant to Section 9(a), (ii) no determination of whether Indemnitee has satisfied any applicable standard of conduct under Delaware law is a legally required condition precedent to indemnification of Indemnitee hereunder against any Indemnifiable Losses or (iii) Indemnitee has been determined or deemed pursuant to Section 9(b) or (c) to have satisfied any applicable standard of conduct under Delaware law that is a legally required condition precedent to indemnification of Indemnitee hereunder against any Indemnifiable Losses, then the Company shall pay to Indemnitee, within 15 calendar days after the later of (x) the Notification Date with respect to the Indemnifiable Claim or portion thereof to which such Indemnifiable Losses are related, out of which such Indemnifiable Losses arose or from which such Indemnifiable Losses resulted and (y) the earliest date on which the applicable criterion specified in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) above shall have been satisfied, an amount equal to the amount of such Indemnifiable Losses.

(e)

If a Standard of Conduct Determination is to be made by Independent Counsel pursuant to Section 9(b)(i), the Independent Counsel shall be selected by the Board and the Company shall give written notice to Indemnitee advising him or her of the identity of the Independent Counsel so selected. If a Standard of Conduct Determination is to be made by Independent Counsel pursuant to Section 9(b)(ii), the Independent Counsel shall be selected by Indemnitee and Indemnitee shall give written notice to the Company advising it of the identity of the Independent Counsel so selected. In either case, Indemnitee or the Company, as applicable, may, within five business days after receiving written notice of selection from the other, deliver to the other a written objection to such selection; provided, however, that such objection may be asserted only on the ground that the Independent Counsel so selected does not satisfy the criteria set forth in the definition of “Independent Counsel” in Section 1(h) and the objection shall set forth with particularity the factual basis of such assertion. Absent a proper and timely objection, the person or firm so selected shall act as Independent Counsel. If such written objection is properly and timely made and substantiated, (i) the Independent Counsel so selected may not serve as Independent Counsel unless and until such objection is withdrawn or a court has determined that such objection is without merit and (ii) the non-objecting party may, at its option, select an alternative Independent Counsel and give written notice to the other party advising such other party of the identity of the alternative Independent Counsel so selected, in which case the provisions of the two immediately preceding sentences and clause (i) of this sentence shall apply to such subsequent selection and notice. If applicable, the provisions of clause (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence shall apply to successive alternative selections. If no Independent Counsel that is permitted under the foregoing provisions of this Section 9(e) to make the Standard of Conduct Determination shall have been selected within 30 days after the Company gives its initial notice pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 9(e) or Indemnitee gives its initial notice pursuant to the second sentence of this Section 9(e), as the case may be, either the Company or Indemnitee may petition the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware for resolution of any objection that has been made by the Company or Indemnitee to the other’s selection of Independent Counsel or for the appointment as Independent Counsel of a person selected by the Court or by such other person as the Court shall designate, and the person or firm with respect to whom all objections are so resolved or the person or firm so appointed will act as Independent Counsel. In all events, the Company shall pay all of the reasonable fees and expenses of the Independent Counsel incurred in connection with the Independent Counsel’s determination pursuant to Section 9(b).

10.	*Presumption of Entitlement —* In making any Standard of Conduct Determination, the person or persons making such determination shall presume that Indemnitee has satisfied the applicable standard of conduct, and the

Company shall, to the fullest extent not prohibited by law, have the burden of proof to overcome that presumption in connection with the making by any person, persons or entity of any determination contrary to that presumption. Any Standard of Conduct Determination that is adverse to Indemnitee may be challenged by Indemnitee in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware. No determination by the Company (including by its directors or any Independent Counsel) that Indemnitee has not satisfied any applicable standard of conduct shall be a defense to any Claim by Indemnitee for indemnification by the Company hereunder or create a presumption that Indemnitee has not met any applicable standard of conduct.

11.

No Other Presumption — For purposes of this Agreement, the termination of any Claim by judgment, order, settlement (whether with or without court approval) or conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, or an entry of an order of probation prior to judgment, shall not create a presumption that Indemnitee did not meet any applicable standard of conduct or that indemnification hereunder is otherwise not permitted.

12.

Non-Exclusivity — The rights of Indemnitee hereunder shall be in addition to any other rights Indemnitee may have under the Constituent Documents, the substantive laws of the State of Delaware, any other contract or otherwise (collectively, “Other Indemnity Provisions”). No amendment, alteration or repeal of this Agreement or of any provision hereof shall limit or restrict any right of Indemnitee under this Agreement in respect of any action taken or omitted by Indemnitee prior to such amendment, alteration or repeal. To the extent that a change in Delaware law, whether by statute or judicial decision, permits greater indemnification or advancement of Expenses than would be afforded currently under the Constituent Documents and this Agreement, it is the intent of the parties hereto that Indemnitee shall enjoy by this Agreement the greater benefits so afforded by such change. No right or remedy herein conferred is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every other right and remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. Subject to Section 15, the assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other right or remedy.

13.

Liability Insurance and Funding — For the duration of Indemnitee’s service as a director or officer of the Company and thereafter for so long as Indemnitee shall be subject to any pending or possible Indemnifiable Claim, to the extent the Company maintains policies of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance providing coverage for directors and officers of the Company, Indemnitee shall be covered by such policies, in accordance with their terms, to the maximum extent of the coverage available for any other director or officer of the Company. Upon request of Indemnitee, the Company shall provide Indemnitee with a copy of all directors’ and officers’ liability insurance applications, binders, policies, declarations, endorsements and other related

materials and shall provide Indemnitee with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on the same. Without limiting the generality or effect of the two immediately preceding sentences, no discontinuation or significant reduction in the scope or amount of coverage from one policy period to the next shall be effective (a) without the prior approval thereof by a majority vote of the Incumbent Directors, even if less than a quorum, or (b) if at the time that any such discontinuation or significant reduction in the scope or amount of coverage is proposed there are no Incumbent Directors, without the prior written consent of Indemnitee (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). In all policies of directors’ and officers’ liability insurance obtained by the Company, Indemnitee shall be named as an insured in such a manner as to provide Indemnitee the same rights and benefits, subject to the same limitations, as are accorded to the Company’s directors and officers most favorably insured by such policy. The Company may, but shall not be required to, create a trust fund, grant a security interest or use other means, including a letter of credit, to ensure the payment of such amounts as may be necessary to satisfy its obligations to indemnify and advance expenses pursuant to this Agreement.

14.

Subrogation — The Company hereby acknowledges that Indemnitee may have certain rights to indemnification, advancement of expenses and/or insurance provided by an Indemnitee-Related Entity (as defined herein). The Company hereby agrees that (i) it is the indemnitor of first resort (i.e., its obligations to Indemnitee are primary and any obligation of the Indemnitee-Related Entity to advance expenses or to provide indemnification for the same expenses or liabilities incurred by Indemnitee are secondary), (ii) it shall be required to advance the full amount of Expenses incurred by Indemnitee and shall be liable for the full amount of all Expenses, judgments, penalties, fines and amounts paid in settlement to the extent legally permitted and as required by the Certificate of Incorporation or By-laws (or any agreement between the Company and Indemnitee), without regard to any rights Indemnitee may have against the Indemnitee-Related Entity, and (iii) it irrevocably waives, relinquishes and releases the Indemnitee-Related Entity from any and all claims against the Indemnitee-Related Entity for contribution, subrogation or any other recovery of any kind in respect thereof. The Company further agrees that no advancement or payment by the Indemnitee-Related Entity on behalf of Indemnitee with respect to any claim for which Indemnitee has sought indemnification from the Company shall affect the foregoing and the Indemnitee-Related Entity shall have a right of contribution and/or be subrogated to the extent of such advancement or payment to all of the rights of recovery of Indemnitee against the Company. The term “Indemnitee-Related Entity” means any company, corporation, limited liability company, partnership, joint venture, trust, employee benefit plan or other enterprise (other than the Company or the insurer under and pursuant to an insurance policy of the Company) from whom an Indemnitee may be entitled to indemnification or advancement of Expenses with respect to which the Company may also have an indemnification or advancement obligation.

15.

No Duplication of Payments — Subject to the provisions of Section 14 of this Agreement, the Company shall not be liable under this Agreement to make any payment to Indemnitee with respect to any Indemnifiable Losses to the extent Indemnitee has otherwise actually received payment (net of Expenses incurred in connection therewith) under any insurance policy, the Constituent Documents or Other Indemnity Provisions or otherwise (including from any entity or enterprise referred to in clause (i) of the definition of “Indemnifiable Claim” in Section 1(f)) with respect to such Indemnifiable Losses otherwise indemnifiable hereunder.

16.

Defense of Claims — The Company shall be entitled to participate in the defense of any Indemnifiable Claim or to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to Indemnitee; provided, however, that if Indemnitee believes, after consultation with counsel selected by Indemnitee, that (a) the use of counsel chosen by the Company to represent Indemnitee would present such counsel with an actual or potential conflict, (b) the named parties in any such Indemnifiable Claim (including any impleaded parties) include both the Company and Indemnitee and Indemnitee shall conclude that there may be one or more legal defenses available to him or her that are different from or in addition to those available to the Company or (c) any such representation by such counsel would be precluded under the applicable standards of professional conduct then prevailing, then Indemnitee shall be entitled to retain separate counsel (but not more than one law firm plus, if applicable, local counsel with respect to any particular Indemnifiable Claim) at the Company’s expense. The Company shall not be liable to Indemnitee under this Agreement for any amounts paid in settlement of any threatened or pending Indemnifiable Claim effected without the Company’s prior written consent. The Company shall not, without the prior written consent of Indemnitee, effect any settlement of any threatened or pending Indemnifiable Claim that Indemnitee is or could have been a party unless such settlement solely involves the payment of money and includes a complete and unconditional release of Indemnitee from all liability on any claims that are the subject matter of such Indemnifiable Claim. Neither the Company nor Indemnitee shall unreasonably withhold its consent to any proposed settlement; provided, however, that Indemnitee may withhold consent to (i) any settlement that does not provide a complete and unconditional release of Indemnitee or (ii) any settlement which imposes a monetary payment obligation upon Indemnitee which is not being paid in full by the Company, insurance coverage or any other party for the benefit of Indemnitee.

17.	*Successors and Binding Agreement —*

(a)

The Company shall require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation, reorganization or otherwise) to all or substantially all the business or assets of the Company, by agreement in form and substance satisfactory to Indemnitee and his or her counsel, expressly to assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent the Company would be required to perform if no such succession had taken place. This Agreement shall be

binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Company and any successor to the Company, including any person acquiring directly or indirectly all or substantially all the business or assets of the Company whether by purchase, merger, consolidation, reorganization or otherwise (and such successor will thereafter be deemed the “Company” for purposes of this Agreement), but shall not otherwise be assignable or delegatable by the Company.

(b)

This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Indemnitee’s personal or legal representatives, executors, administrators, successors, heirs, distributees, legatees and other successors.

(c)

This Agreement is personal in nature and neither of the parties hereto shall, without the consent of the other, assign or delegate this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder except as expressly provided in Sections 17(a) and 17(b). Without limiting the generality or effect of the foregoing, Indemnitee’s right to receive payments hereunder shall not be assignable, whether by pledge, creation of a security interest or otherwise, other than by a transfer by Indemnitee’s will or by the laws of descent and distribution, and in the event of any attempted assignment or transfer contrary to this Section 17(c), the Company shall have no liability to pay any amount so attempted to be assigned or transferred.

18.

Duration of Agreement — This Agreement shall continue until and terminate upon the later of: (a) ten (10) years after the date that Indemnitee shall have ceased to serve as a director or officer of the Company or (b) one (1) year after the final termination of any proceeding then pending in respect of an Indemnifiable Claim and of any proceeding commenced by Indemnitee pursuant to Section 24 of this Agreement relating thereto.

19.

Notices — For all purposes of this Agreement, all communications, including notices, consents, requests or approvals, required or permitted to be given hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given when hand delivered or dispatched by electronic facsimile transmission (with receipt thereof orally confirmed), or five business days after having been mailed by United States registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid or one business day after having been sent for next-day delivery by a nationally recognized overnight courier service, addressed to the Company (to the attention of the Secretary of the Company) and to Indemnitee at the addresses shown on the signature page hereto, or to such other address as any party may have furnished to the other in writing and in accordance herewith, except that notices of changes of address will be effective only upon receipt.

20.	*Governing Law —* The validity, interpretation, construction and performance of this Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the substantive laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to the principles

of conflict of laws of such State. The Company and Indemnitee each hereby irrevocably consent to the jurisdiction of the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware for all purposes in connection with any action or proceeding that arises out of or relates to this Agreement and agree that any action instituted under this Agreement shall be brought only in the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware.

21.

Validity — If any provision of this Agreement or the application of any provision hereof to any person or circumstance is held invalid, unenforceable or otherwise illegal, the remainder of this Agreement and the application of such provision to any other person or circumstance shall not be affected, and the provision so held to be invalid, unenforceable or otherwise illegal shall be reformed to the extent, and only to the extent, necessary to make it enforceable, valid or legal. In the event that any court or other adjudicative body shall decline to reform any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, unenforceable or otherwise illegal as contemplated by the immediately preceding sentence, the parties thereto shall take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate to replace the provision so held to be invalid, unenforceable or otherwise illegal with one or more alternative provisions that effectuate the purpose and intent of the original provisions of this Agreement as fully as possible without being invalid, unenforceable or otherwise illegal.

22.

Amendments; Waivers — No provision of this Agreement may be amended, modified, waived or discharged unless such amendment, modification, waiver or discharge is agreed to in writing signed by Indemnitee and the Company. No waiver by either party hereto at any time of any breach by the other party hereto or compliance with any condition or provision of this Agreement to be performed by such other party shall be deemed a waiver of similar or dissimilar provisions or conditions at the same or at any prior or subsequent time.

23.	*Complete Agreement —* No agreements or representations, oral or otherwise, expressed or implied with respect to the subject matter hereof have been made by either party that are not set forth expressly in this Agreement.

24.

Legal Fees and Expenses — It is the intent of the Company that Indemnitee not be required to incur legal fees or other Expenses associated with the interpretation, enforcement or defense of Indemnitee’s rights under this Agreement by litigation or otherwise because the cost and expense thereof would substantially detract from the benefits intended to be extended to Indemnitee hereunder. Accordingly, without limiting the generality or effect of any other provision hereof, if it should appear to Indemnitee that the Company has failed to comply with any of its obligations under this Agreement or in the event that the Company or any other person takes or threatens to take any action to declare this Agreement void or unenforceable or institutes any litigation or other action or proceeding designed to deny, or to recover from, Indemnitee the benefits provided or intended to be provided to Indemnitee hereunder, the Company irrevocably authorizes Indemnitee from time to time to retain counsel of Indemnitee’s choice, at the expense of the Company as hereafter provided, to

advise and represent Indemnitee in connection with any such interpretation, enforcement or defense, including the initiation or defense of any litigation or other legal action, whether by or against the Company or any director, officer, stockholder or other person affiliated with the Company, in any jurisdiction. Notwithstanding any existing or prior attorney-client relationship between the Company and such counsel, the Company irrevocably consents to Indemnitee’s entering into an attorney-client relationship with such counsel, and in that connection the Company and Indemnitee agree that a confidential relationship shall exist between Indemnitee and such counsel. Without respect to whether Indemnitee prevails, in whole or in part, in connection with any of the foregoing, the Company will pay and be solely financially responsible for any and all attorneys’ and related fees and expenses incurred by Indemnitee in connection with any of the foregoing.

25.	*Certain Interpretive Matters —*

(a)

No provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in favor of, or against, either of the parties hereto by reason of the extent to which any such party or its counsel participated in the drafting thereof or by reason of the extent to which any such provision is inconsistent with any prior draft hereof or thereof.

(b)

It is the Company’s intention and desire that the provisions of this Agreement be construed liberally, subject to their express terms, to maximize the protections to be provided to Indemnitee hereunder.

(c)

All references in this Agreement to Sections, paragraphs, clauses and other subdivisions refer to the corresponding Sections, paragraphs, clauses and other subdivisions of this Agreement unless expressly provided otherwise. Titles appearing at the beginning of any Sections, subsections or other subdivisions of this Agreement are for convenience only, do not constitute any part of such Sections, subsections or other subdivisions and shall be disregarded in construing the language contained in such subdivisions. The words “this Agreement,” “herein,” “hereby,” “hereunder,” and “hereof,” and words of similar import, refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular subdivision unless expressly so limited. The word “or” is not exclusive, and the word “including” (in its various forms) means “including without limitation.” Pronouns in masculine, feminine or neuter genders shall be construed to state and include any other gender, and words, terms and titles (including terms defined herein) in the singular form shall be construed to include the plural and vice versa, unless the context otherwise expressly requires.

26.	*Counterparts* — This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed to be an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

In witness whereof, Indemnitee has executed, and the Company has caused its duly authorized representative to execute, this Agreement as of the date first above written.
