 RESTRICTED STOCK AGREEMENT 
 THIS AMENDMENT, effective as of April 17, 2013, is to the Restricted Stock Agreement (the “Restricted Stock Agreement”) by and between Dell Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
“Company”), and you in effect as of April 17, 2013, in connection with that number of shares awarded to you pursuant to the Restricted Stock Agreement (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, subject to the terms
and conditions therein. All terms used herein with their initial letters capitalized shall have the meanings given them in the Restricted Stock Agreement or the Dell Inc. Amended and Restated 2002 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “Plan”)
unless otherwise defined herein. 
 On April 17, 2013, the Leadership Development and Compensation Committee (the “Committee”) of
the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) determined to amend certain outstanding equity awards to provide certain benefits to holders of such awards in the event of a Change in Control (as defined below). Accordingly, the
Restricted Stock Agreement is hereby amended as follows: 
  

	1.	Change in Control — In the event of a Change in Control (as defined below), either of the Committee or the Board shall have the right, in its
discretion, prior to or at the effective time of the consummation of such Change in Control, to direct that in lieu of being eligible to receive the Shares that may become vested under the Restricted Stock Agreement you instead will be eligible to
receive either (a) a payment in cash equal to the value of such Shares (without interest or earnings), based on the amount payable to the Company’s stockholders in connection with the Change in Control under any agreement pursuant to which
the transactions constituting the Change in Control are effected (the “Transaction Agreement”) or, in the case of a Change in Control effected without a Transaction Agreement to which the Company is a party, the fair market value of a
Share at the date the Change in Control occurs (the “Substitute Cash Consideration”), or (b) shares of the capital stock of any Person successor to the Company or affiliate of such successor Person, or other consideration (the
“Substitute Property Consideration” and together with the Substitute Cash Consideration, the “Substitute Consideration”), so long as such Substitute Property Consideration is, in the good faith judgment of the Committee or the
Board, as applicable, of value equal to or greater than the value of such Shares. You will be entitled to payment or delivery of your Shares or Substitute Consideration if, when and to the extent you satisfy the service-based vesting conditions that
apply to the Shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if your employment is terminated by the Company or the Company affiliate with which you are employed without Cause (as defined below) on or following the effective time of the Change in Control and
prior to the 24 month anniversary of the effective time of the Change in Control, you will become 100% vested as of your date of employment termination as to all of the Shares deliverable or payable under the Restricted Stock Agreement (or if the
Committee or the Board shall have determined that your rights under the Restricted Stock Agreement shall be settled in Substitute Cash Consideration or Substitute Property Consideration, such Substitute Consideration) and payment or delivery thereof
shall be made within ten days following your date of employment termination.

Conduct or a fiduciary duty to the Company or its stockholders; or (d) the determination by the senior management of the Company that you violated state or federal law relating to the workplace environment, including, without limitation, laws
relating to sexual harassment or age, sex, race, or other prohibited discrimination.

(50%) of the total voting power of the Voting Stock of the Company; 
 (b) individuals who on the date of
this Amendment constitute the Board (together with any new directors whose election by such Board or whose nomination by such Board for election by the stockholders of the Company was approved by a vote of at least a majority of the members of such
Board then in office who either were members of such Board on the date of this Amendment or whose election or nomination for election was previously so approved) cease for any reason to constitute a majority of the members of such Board then in
office; 







 (c) the Company consolidates with, or merges with or into, any Person, or
any Person consolidates with, or merges with or into, the Company, other than any such transaction in which the holders of securities that represented one hundred percent (100%) of the Voting Stock of the Company immediately prior to such
transaction (or other securities into which such securities are converted as part of such merger or consolidation transaction) own directly or indirectly at least a majority of the voting power of the Voting Stock of the surviving Person in such
merger or consolidation transaction immediately after such transaction; 
 (d) there is consummated any direct or
indirect sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition (other than by way of merger or consolidation), in one transaction or a series of related transactions, of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries,
