EMC CORPORATION

Amended and Restated 2003 Stock Plan
  Stock Option Agreement (Version [      ])  

1.     Grant of Option

        EMC
Corporation, a Massachusetts corporation (the "Company"), hereby grants to you (the "Participant") on the grant date referenced above (the "Grant Date") an option (the "Option") to
purchase the number of shares of the Company's common stock referenced under "Shares Granted" above (the "Shares") at the option exercise price per Share referenced under "Grant Price" above, which is
not less than the fair market value of the Shares on the Grant Date. The Option is made pursuant to and is subject to the provisions of this Stock Option Agreement and the Company's Amended and
Restated 2003 Stock Plan, as amended from time to time (the "Plan"). The final exercise date of the Option is the expiration date which shall be the tenth (10th) anniversary of the Grant
Date (the "Expiration Date"). This Option shall be a non-statutory stock option under Section 422(a) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Capitalized terms used
but not defined in this Stock Option Agreement shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Plan. You must accept this Stock Option Agreement, without amendment, within the acceptance period
referenced under "Days Left to Accept" above. 

        The
Option is exercisable in the following installments prior to the Expiration Date: 

	•
	On
or after [                        ] of the Grant Date, you will be entitled to purchase
[                        ] of the Shares subject to
the Option; and

	•
	On
or after each of the next [                        ] successive anniversaries of the Grant Date, you will be entitled to purchase
an additional
[                        ] of the Shares subject to the Option. 

        The
Option may not be exercised to any extent after the Expiration Date. 

2.     Exercise of Option  

        The Option may be exercised by delivery of a written election to exercise to the Company and payment in full of the aggregate option exercise price in accordance
with the provisions of the Plan, or in such other manner as the Company may otherwise from time to time permit. Each election to exercise the Option in whole or in part shall be in writing, signed by
the Participant or by his or her executor, administrator or the person(s) to whom the Option is transferred by will or applicable laws of descent and distribution (the "Legal Representative"), and
received by the Company at its principal office, accompanied by this Stock Option Agreement, and payment in full of the aggregate option exercise price in accordance with the provisions of the Plan.
The option exercise price may be paid by delivery of cash, certified check, bank draft or money order. In the event that the Option is exercised by such Legal Representative, the Company shall be
under no obligation to deliver Shares hereunder unless and until the Company is satisfied as to the authority of the person(s) exercising the Option. To the extent the Company is required to withhold
any taxes with respect to the exercise of the Option, the Participant or the Legal Representative, as the case may be, shall remit to the Company, or its agent, a check in the amount of all such
taxes. 

3.     Application of Stock Transfer Agreement  

        If, at the time the Option is exercised, the Company is a party to any agreement restricting the transfer of any outstanding shares of its Common Stock, the
Option may be exercised only if the Shares acquired upon such exercise are made subject to the transfer restrictions set forth in that agreement or, if more than one such agreement is then in effect,
the agreement specified by the Committee. 

4.     Tax Assessments  

        Participant acknowledges and agrees that he or she is solely responsible for any and all taxes that may be assessed by any taxing authority in the United States
or any other jurisdiction arising out of the grant or the exercise of the Option and that the Company or any Company subsidiary is not liable for any such assessments. 

5.     Retirement  

        Section 6.6.3 of the Plan (Termination of a Participant's Service Relationship by Reason of Retirement) shall only apply if the Participant has attained at
least two and a half years of continuous service from the Grant Date. 

6.     Agreement to Provide Security  

        If, at the time the Option is exercised, the Committee determines that under applicable law and regulations the Company or any Company subsidiary could be liable
for the withholding of any income or social taxes with respect to any Shares acquired upon exercise or disposition of the Option, the Option may not be exercised unless the person exercising the
Option gives such security as the Committee deems adequate to meet the potential liability of the Company or such Company subsidiary for the withholding of tax and agrees to augment such security from
time to time in an amount reasonably determined by the Committee to preserve the adequacy of such security. 

7.     Non-transferability of Option  

        The Option is not transferable by the Participant except by will or the laws of descent and distribution, and is exercisable during the Participant's lifetime
only by the Participant, in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Plan. 

8.     Provisions of the Plan  

        This Stock Option Agreement and the Option are subject to the provisions of the Plan, a copy of which is furnished to the Participant herewith. 

Acceptance, Acknowledgment and Receipt  

        By accepting this Stock Option Agreement, I, the Participant, hereby:

  EMC CORPORATION
  Amended and Restated 2003 Stock Plan
  Performance Stock Option Agreement    
    

1.     Grant of Option  

        EMC Corporation, a Massachusetts corporation (the "Company"), hereby grants to you (the "Participant") on the grant date referenced above (the "Grant Date") an
option (the "Option") to purchase the number of shares of the Company's common stock referenced under "Shares Granted" above (the "Shares") at the option exercise price per Share referenced under
"Grant Price" above, which is not less than the fair market value of the Shares on the Grant Date. The Option is made pursuant to and is subject to the provisions of this Performance Stock Option
Agreement and the Company's Amended and Restated 2003 Stock Plan, as amended from time to time (the "Plan"). The final exercise date of the Option is the expiration date which shall be the tenth
(10th) anniversary of the Grant Date (the "Expiration Date"); provided, however, that if the Company does not achieve at least threshold performance of each stock option vesting
performance goal established by the Committee in respect of the Company's [            ] fiscal year (each, a "[            ]
Performance Option
Vesting Goal"), the Expiration Date of the Option shall be accelerated to the date upon which the Committee determines that such performance was not achieved. This Option shall be a nonstatutory stock
option under Section 422(a) of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Performance Stock Option Agreement shall have the meanings
ascribed to them in the Plan. You must accept this Performance Stock Option Agreement, without amendment, within the acceptance period referenced under "Days Left to Accept" above. 

        In
order for any portion of this Option to become exercisable, both of the following conditions must be satisfied: (1) the Company must achieve at least threshold performance of
each [            ] Performance Option Vesting Goal and (2) the Participant's Service Relationship must remain continuously in effect, except as noted in
Section 3 below. 

2.     Exercise of the Option—the Performance Condition  

        The percentage of the Option that is eligible to become exercisable shall be determined by the Committee based upon the achievement of the
[            ] Performance Option Vesting Goals. If the [            ] Performance Option Vesting Goals are fully achieved, 100%
of this Option
shall be eligible to become exercisable. The Participant shall be given written notification of (i) the [            ] Performance Option Vesting Goals,
(ii) the
method by which the Committee will determine the percentage of this Option, if any, that will be eligible for exercise if the [            ] Performance Option Vesting Goals
are not fully achieved and (iii) the percentage of this Option, if any, that is eligible to be exercised based upon the actual achievement of the [            ]
Performance Option Vesting Goals. All determinations regarding the achievement by the Company of the [            ] Performance Option Vesting Goals shall be made by the
Committee, in its sole discretion, and shall be made within sixty (60) days after the end of the Company's [            ] fiscal year. No portion of this Option shall
be eligible to become exercisable unless the Committee, in its sole discretion, shall so determine. If a Change in Control (as defined in the Change in Control Severance Agreement by and between the
Participant and the Company) occurs prior to the date the Committee determines whether the [            ] Performance Option Vesting Goals have been achieved, the
[            ] Performance Option Vesting Goals shall be deemed to have been fully achieved. 

3.     Exercise of the Option—the Service Condition  

        The portion of this Option that the Committee determines are eligible to be exercisable pursuant to Section 2 above may be exercised by the Participant as

	•
	On
or after [                        ], the Participant will be entitled to purchase a number of Shares subject to this Option equal

(x) [                        ] of the Shares subject to the Option and (y) the percentage of the Option that the
Committee determines is eligible for exercise pursuant to
Section 2 above; and

	•
	On
or after each of the next [            ] successive anniversaries of
