	 	Re:	 	Termination Notice under Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated May 20, 2009 (“Merger
 Agreement”)

Dear Dan:

Pursuant to Section 8.1(h) of the Merger Agreement, I am notifying you of the following:

	 	(a)	 	on Monday, July 6, 2009, by an email sent by Joseph M. Tucci to Aneel Bhusri, EMC
Corporation (“EMC”), made an unsolicited Acquisition Proposal (as defined in the Merger
Agreement) pursuant to Amendment No. 6 to the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO
originally filed on June 2, 2009, as amended on June 3, 2009, June 9, 2009, June 15, 2009,
June 17, 2009 and June 26, 2009 (the “Schedule TO”) by EMC and Envoy Merger Corporation, a
Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of EMC, to acquire all outstanding shares
of Data Domain, Inc. (“Data Domain”) common stock for $33.50 per share in cash (the
“Tender Offer”);
	 
	 	(b)	 	the Data Domain board of directors (the “Data Domain Board”) has determined in good
faith (after consultation with its financial advisor and outside legal counsel) that the
Tender Offer constitutes a Superior Proposal (as defined in the Merger Agreement);
	 
	 	(c)	 	the Data Domain Board has determined in good faith (after consultation with its
financial advisor and outside legal counsel) that, in light of the Superior Proposal, the
failure to terminate the Merger Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(h) is reasonably likely
to be a breach of its fiduciary duties to the Data Domain stockholders under Delaware Law
(as defined in the Merger Agreement); and
	 
	 	(d)	 	the Data Domain Board gave NetApp, Inc. (“NetApp”) written notice on Tuesday, July 7,
2009:

	 	(i)	 	of the Tender Offer and (A) made available at the website listed
on Exhibit A the letter, dated July 6, 2009, from Joseph M. Tucci, the
Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer of EMC, to Aneel Bhusri, the
Chairman of the Data Domain Board (the “Letter”), (B) made available at the
website listed on Exhibit B the proposed agreement and plan of merger to
be entered into between EMC and Data Domain (the “EMC Merger Agreement”) and (C)
made available at the website listed on Exhibit C the Schedule TO, which
constitute all related agreements, commitment letters and other material
documents provided or otherwise furnished by EMC,

 

 

	 	(ii)	 	that the Data Domain Board intends to terminate the Merger
Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(h) of the Merger Agreement in response to the
Tender Offer, and
	 
	 	(iii)	 	of the opportunity to meet with the Data Domain Board and the
Company’s financial advisors and outside counsel at such times as NetApp may
reasonably request for the purpose of enabling NetApp and Data Domain to discuss
in good faith the Merger Agreement and the terms and conditions thereof, and any
modifications of the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement that NetApp
may propose in response thereto.

	 	(e)	 	later on Tuesday, July 7, 2009, NetApp waived the requirement pursuant to Section
8.1(h)(iv) and Section 8.1(h)(v) of the Merger Agreement that the Data Domain Board must
give NetApp at least five (5) Business Days prior written notice of the information
contained in (d) above, prior to Data Domain terminating the Merger Agreement under Section
8.1(h) of the Merger Agreement;
	 
	 	(f)	 	following NetApp’s waiver of the five (5) Business Day period, (i) NetApp has not made
a proposal at least as favorable or more favorable to the Data Domain stockholders as the
Tender Offer and (ii) the Data Domain Board has determined in good faith (after
consultation with its financial advisor and its outside legal counsel) that (A) the Tender
Offer continues to constitute a Superior Proposal, and (B) in light of such Superior
Proposal, the failure to terminate the Merger Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(h) of the
Merger Agreement is reasonably likely to be a breach of its fiduciary duties to the Data
Domain stockholders under Delaware Law;
	 
	 	(g)	 	the Data Domain Board has approved (i) the termination of the Merger Agreement and (ii)
the entry into the EMC Merger Agreement; and
	 
	 	(h)	 	concurrently with the termination of the Merger Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(h) of
the Merger Agreement (and as a condition to the effectiveness of such termination), Data
Domain is, concurrently with the delivery of this notice, (i) entering into a definitive
agreement for the Superior Proposal (i.e., the EMC Merger Agreement) and (ii) wiring to a
NetApp bank account designated by Steve Gomo, a fee equal to Fifty Seven Million Dollars
($57,000,000) pursuant to Section 8.3(b)(iv) of the Merger Agreement.

     NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

Form of Replacement Term A Note

REPLACEMENT TERM A NOTE

			
	 	 	 
	$25,000,000
	 	Dated as of August 31, 2009

     FOR VALUE RECEIVED, WINTRUST FINANCIAL CORPORATION, an Illinois corporation (the “Maker”)
promises to pay to the order of BANK OF AMERICA, N.A., as successor to LaSalle Bank National
Association (the “Bank”) the lesser of the principal sum of TWENTY-FIVE MILLION DOLLARS
($25,000,000), or the aggregate unpaid principal amount outstanding under the Credit Agreement
dated as of November 1, 2005 (as amended from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”) between the
Maker and the Bank, at the maturity or maturities and in the amount or amounts as stated on the
records of the Bank together with interest (computed on actual days elapsed on the basis of a 360
day year) on any and all principal amounts outstanding hereunder from time to time from the date
hereof until maturity. Interest shall be payable at the rates of interest and the times set forth
in the Credit Agreement. All unpaid principal, and accrued interest, if not paid sooner, shall be
due and payable in full on September 30, 2009.

     This Replacement Term A Note (this “Note”) shall be available for direct advances.

     Principal and interest shall be paid to the Bank at its office at 135 South LaSalle Street,
Chicago, Illinois 60603, or at such other place as the holder of this Note may designate in writing
to the Maker. This Note may be prepaid in whole or in part as provided for in the Credit Agreement.

     This Note evidences indebtedness incurred under the Credit Agreement dated as of November 1,
2005, as amended from time to time, between the Maker and the Bank, to which reference is hereby
made for a statement of the tams and conditions under which the clue date of the Note or any
payment thereon may be accelerated. The holder of this Note is entitled to all of the benefits
provided for in the Credit Agreement.

     The Maker agrees that in action or proceeding instituted to collect or enforce collection of
this Note, the amount on the Bank’s records shall be conclusive and binding evidence, absent
demonstrable error, of the unpaid principal balance of this Note.

     This Note is issued in replacement of and substitution for, but not in repayment of, that
certain Term A Note dated as of August 31, 2008, in the principal amount of One Hundred Million
Dollars ($100,000,000), executed by the maker and payable to the order of the Bank (the “Prior
Note”). The indebtedness evidenced by the Prior Note is continuing indebtedness evidenced hereby,
and nothing herein shall be deemed to constitute a payment, settlement or novation of the Prior
Note, or to release or otherwise adversely affect any lien, mortgage or security interest securing
such indebtedness.
