 6. Representations and Warranties of the Stockholder. The Stockholder, as to itself, hereby represents and warrants to
VMware as follows: 
 (a) Power: Organization: Binding Agreement. The Stockholder has full power and authority to execute and deliver
this Agreement, to perform its obligations hereunder and to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. If the Stockholder is an entity, the Stockholder is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its jurisdiction
of formation. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Stockholder, and, assuming this Agreement constitutes a valid and binding obligation of VMware, constitutes a valid and binding obligation of the Stockholder, enforceable
against the Stockholder in accordance with its terms, except that such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar Laws affecting creditors’ rights generally. 

(b) No Conflicts. None of the execution and delivery by the Stockholder of this Agreement, the performance by the Stockholder of its
obligations hereunder or the consummation by the Stockholder of the transactions contemplated hereby will (i) result in a violation or breach of any agreement to which the Stockholder is a party or by which the Stockholder may be bound,
including any voting agreement or voting trust, (ii) violate any applicable Law or (iii) if the Stockholder is an entity, violate its organizational documents. 

  
 3 

 (c) Ownership of Covered Shares. The Stockholder (together with such
Stockholder’s spouse if such Stockholder is married and the Shares constitute community property under applicable Laws) is the record or beneficial owner of the Covered Shares. All Covered Shares are free and clear of any Liens (other than
Permitted Liens) and no person has a right to acquire any of such securities. As of the date hereof, other than the Owned Shares, the Stockholder does not own beneficially or of record any (i) shares of capital stock or voting securities of
Pivotal, (ii) securities of Pivotal convertible into or exchangeable for shares of capital stock or voting securities of Pivotal or (iii) options or other rights to acquire from Pivotal any capital stock, voting securities or securities
convertible into or exchangeable for capital stock or voting securities of Pivotal. 
 (d) Voting Power. The Stockholder has the
requisite voting power, power of disposition, power to issue instructions with respect to the matters set forth herein, and power to agree to all of the matters set forth in this Agreement necessary to take all actions required under this Agreement,
in each case with respect to all of the securities subject to this Agreement, with no limitations, qualifications or restrictions on such rights, subject to applicable federal securities laws and those arising under the terms of this Agreement. 

(e) Reliance by VMware. The Stockholder understands and acknowledges that VMware and Merger Sub are entering into the Merger Agreement
in reliance upon its execution and delivery of this Agreement. 
 (f) Consents and Approvals. The execution and delivery of this
Agreement by the Stockholder does not, and the performance by the Stockholder of its obligations under this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will not, require the Stockholder to obtain any consent, approval,
authorization or permit of, or to make any filing with or notification to, any Governmental Entity, except in each case for filings with the SEC or where the failure to obtain such consents, approvals, authorizations or permits, or to make such
filings and notifications, would not, either individually or in the aggregate, prevent or delay the performance by the Stockholder of any of its obligations hereunder. 

7. Certain Restrictions. 

(a) The Stockholder shall not, directly or indirectly, take any action that would make any of its representations or warranties contained
herein untrue or incorrect in any respect. 
 (b) Prior to the Termination Date, in the event that the Stockholder acquires record or
beneficial ownership of, or the power to vote or direct the voting of, any additional Shares or other voting interests with respect to Pivotal, such Shares or voting interests will, without further action of the parties, be deemed Covered Shares and
subject to the provisions of this Agreement, the number of Shares held by the Stockholder will be deemed amended accordingly, and such Shares or voting interests will automatically become subject to the terms of this Agreement. The Stockholder shall
promptly notify VMware and Pivotal of any such event. 
 (c) The Stockholder hereby agrees to notify VMware in writing within 24 hours after
receipt of any Acquisition Proposal and to disclose the material terms of such Acquisition Proposal. For the avoidance of doubt, in the event that a third party contacts the Stockholder or a Representative of the Stockholder regarding a potential
Acquisition Proposal, 

  
 4 

 
the Stockholder will not be in breach of this Agreement in any respect to the extent such Stockholder or its Representative responds to such third party that it is bound by the terms of this
Agreement and is unable to discuss or respond to such matters without first complying with the procedures set forth herein with respect to any such discussions, provided that such Stockholder provides written notice of such communication to VMware
promptly following such communication. 
 8. Disclosure. The Stockholder consents to VMware publishing and disclosing in all documents
and schedules filed with the SEC, and any press release or other disclosure document that VMware determines to be necessary or desirable in connection with the Merger (including any filings by Pivotal) and any transactions related to the Merger, the
terms and nature of the Stockholder’s commitments, arrangements and understandings under this Agreement. 
 9. No Ownership
Interest. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, nothing contained in this Agreement will be deemed to vest in VMware any direct or indirect ownership or incidence of ownership of or with respect to any securities subject to the terms
of this Agreement. All rights, ownership and economic benefits relating to such securities will remain vested in and belong to the Stockholder. 

10. Waiver of Appraisal Rights. The Stockholder hereby waives any rights of appraisal or rights to dissent from the Merger that the
Stockholder may have under applicable Law. 
 11. Further Assurances. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, upon
request of VMware, the Stockholder shall use commercially reasonable efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary to fulfill its obligations under this Agreement, including cooperation with
any SEC filings. 
 12. Stop Transfer Instructions. At all times commencing with the execution and delivery of this Agreement and
continuing until the Termination Date, in furtherance of this Agreement, the Stockholder hereby authorizes VMware or its counsel to instruct Pivotal to instruct its transfer agent to put in place a stop transfer order with respect to all of the
securities of Pivotal held of record by the Stockholder (and that this Agreement places limits on the voting and transfer of). 
 13.
Termination. This Agreement and all rights and obligations of the parties hereunder and thereunder, will terminate and have no further force or effect as of the Termination Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing set forth in this
section 13 or elsewhere in this Agreement relieves either party hereto from liability, or otherwise limits the liability of either party hereto, for any intentional breach of this Agreement prior to such termination. 

14. Director Resignation. If the Stockholder is a member of the Pivotal Board or a member of the board of directors of any Subsidiary of
Pivotal, he or she hereby resigns from each such board of directors and any committees thereof, effective as of, and contingent upon, the Effective Time. 

  
 5 

 15. Miscellaneous. 

(a) Severability. If any term or provision of this agreement or the application of any such term or provision to any Person or
circumstance is held by final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any situation in any jurisdiction, all other conditions and provisions of this agreement will nevertheless remain in full force
and effect. If the final judgment of such court declares that any term or provision hereof is invalid, void or unenforceable, the parties agree to, as applicable, (a) reduce the scope, duration, area or applicability of the term or provision,
to delete specific words or phrases, or (b) replace any invalid, illegal or unenforceable term or provision with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the original intention of the invalid,
illegal or unenforceable term or provision. 
 (b) Assignment. No party hereto may assign either this Agreement or any of its rights,
interests, or obligations hereunder, by operation of Law or otherwise, without the prior written approval of the other parties. This Agreement will be binding upon and will inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the parties hereto and their
respective successors and permitted assigns. No assignment by any party hereto will relieve such party of any of its obligations hereunder. Any purported assignment of this Agreement without the consent required by this section 14(b) is null and
void. 
 (c) Amendment and Modification. Subject to applicable Law, this Agreement may be amended by the parties hereto at any time by
execution of an instrument in writing signed on behalf of each of the Stockholder and VMware. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement will constitute a waiver of any other provisions hereof (whether or not similar) nor will such waiver
constitute a continuing waiver. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement will be effective unless it is in writing signed by the party making such waiver. The failure of a party to insist upon strict adherence to any term of this
Agreement on one or more occasions will not be considered a waiver or deprive that party of the right thereafter to insist upon strict adherence to that term or any other term of this Agreement. 

(d) Specific Performance. The parties hereto acknowledge that irreparable damage for which monetary damages, even if available, would
not be an adequate remedy would occur in the event that the parties hereto do not perform the provisions of this Agreement (including any party hereto failing to take such actions as are required of it hereunder) in accordance with its specified
terms or otherwise breach such provisions. The parties acknowledge and agree that each party will be entitled to an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the
terms and provisions hereof in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, except that if jurisdiction is not then available in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, then in any federal court located in the State of Delaware or any
other Delaware state court, this being in addition to any other remedy to which such party is entitled at law or in equity. Each of the parties hereby further waives (a) any defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law
would be adequate and (b) any requirement under any law to post security as a prerequisite to obtaining equitable relief.

7. VMware Information Statement. 

(a) As soon as reasonably practicable following the execution of this Agreement, VMware will prepare and file with the SEC a preliminary
information statement on Schedule 14C relating to the VMware Stockholder Approval (together with any amendments thereof or supplements thereto, the “Information Statement”), and VMware shall, or shall cause its affiliates to,
prepare and file with the SEC all other documents required by the Exchange Act in connection with the VMware Stockholder Approval, and Dell, on the one hand, and VMware, on the other hand, shall cooperate with each other in connection with the
preparation of the Information Statement and any such other filings. All documents that VMware is responsible for filing with the SEC in connection with the VMware Stockholder Approval will comply in all material respects with the applicable
requirements of the Exchange Act. Subject to applicable Law, prior to filing or mailing the Information Statement or filing any other required filings (or, in each case, any amendment thereof or supplement thereto) or responding to any comments of
the SEC with respect thereto, VMware shall give Dell and its counsel a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on such document or response and shall give due consideration to all reasonable additions, deletions or changes suggested thereto by
Dell and its counsel.

 (b) Each of VMware and Dell shall as promptly as reasonably practicable notify the other of
the receipt of any comments of the SEC with respect to the Information Statement and of any request by the SEC for any amendment or supplement thereto or for additional information and shall as promptly as reasonably practicable provide to the other
copies of all written correspondence with the SEC with respect to the Information Statement or the transactions contemplated hereby. VMware shall use its reasonable best efforts to (i) promptly provide responses to the SEC with respect to all

such filing. VMware shall cause the definitive Information Statement to be mailed to the stockholders of VMware sufficiently in advance of the Effective Time such that the Information Statement and the actions contemplated thereby are effective
prior to the Effective Time. 
 (c) If, at any time prior to the mailing of the Information Statement, any information relating to Dell,
VMware or any of their respective affiliates should be discovered by the Dell or VMware which, in the reasonable judgment of the applicable party, should be set forth in an amendment of, or a supplement to, the Information Statement so that the
Information Statement would not contain any misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, the party that
discovers such information shall promptly notify the other party, and Dell and VMware shall cooperate in the prompt filing with the SEC of any necessary amendment of, or supplement to, the Information Statement and, to the extent required by
applicable Law, in disseminating the information contained in such amendment or supplement to the stockholders of VMware. 
 (d) Without

Agreement without the prior written consent of Dell (not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). If at any time prior to obtaining the Pivotal Stockholder Approvals, any information relating to Dell, this Agreement, the Merger,
Pivotal, VMware, Merger Sub or any of their respective Affiliates, directors or officers should be discovered by Dell and/or VMware that should be set forth in an amendment or supplement to the Proxy Statement and Schedule 13E-3 so that each such document would not contain any misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were
made, not misleading, the applicable party shall promptly notify the other, and VMware shall, pursuant to section 5.3 of the Merger Agreement, provide such information to Pivotal. Notwithstanding the foregoing, prior to the filing or mailing the
Schedule 

  
 5 

 
13E-3 and Proxy Statement (or, in each case, any amendment or supplement thereto) or responding to any comments of the SEC with respect thereto, VMware
shall give Dell and its counsel a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on such document or response and shall give due consideration to all reasonable additions, deletions or changes suggested thereto by Dell and its counsel and shall

authorization or permit of, or to make any filing with or notification to, any Governmental Entity, except in each case for filings with the SEC or where the failure to obtain such consents, approvals, authorizations or permits, or to make such
filings and notifications, would not, either individually or in the aggregate, prevent or delay the performance by Dell and EMC LLC of any of their obligations hereunder. 

11. Representations and Warranties of VMware. VMware hereby represents and warrants to each of Dell and EMC LLC as follows: 

(a) Power: Organization: Binding Agreement. VMware has full power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement, to perform its

permits, or to make such filings and notifications, would not, either individually or in the aggregate, prevent or delay the performance by VMware of any of its obligations hereunder. 

12. Certain Restrictions.

18. Miscellaneous. 
 (a)
Severability. If any term or provision of this agreement or the application of any such term or provision to any Person or circumstance is held by final judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in
any situation in any jurisdiction, all other conditions and provisions of this agreement will nevertheless remain in full force and effect. If the final judgment of such court declares that any term or provision hereof is invalid, void or
unenforceable, the parties agree to, as applicable, (a) reduce the scope, duration, area or applicability of the term or provision, to delete specific words or phrases, or (b) replace any invalid, illegal or unenforceable term or provision
with a term or provision that is valid and enforceable and that comes closest to expressing the original intention of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable term or provision. 

  
 9 

 (b) Assignment. No party hereto may assign either this Agreement or any of its
rights, interests, or obligations hereunder, by operation of Law or otherwise, without the prior written approval of the other parties. This Agreement will be binding upon and will inure to the benefit of, and be enforceable by, the parties hereto
and their respective successors and permitted assigns. No assignment by any party hereto will relieve such party of any of its obligations hereunder. Any purported assignment of this Agreement without the consent required by this section 18(b) is
null and void. 
 (c) Amendments; Waiver. Subject to applicable Law, this Agreement may be amended by the parties hereto at any time
by execution of an instrument in writing signed on behalf of each of Dell, EMC LLC and VMware. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement will constitute a waiver of any other provisions hereof (whether or not similar) nor will such waiver
constitute a continuing waiver. No waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be effective unless it is in writing signed by the party making such waiver. The failure of a party to insist upon strict adherence to any term of this
Agreement on one or more occasions will not be considered a waiver or deprive that party of the right thereafter to insist upon strict adherence to that term or any other term of this Agreement. 

(d) Specific Performance. The parties hereto acknowledge that irreparable damage for which monetary damages, even if available, would
not be an adequate remedy would occur in the event that the parties hereto do not perform the provisions of this Agreement (including any party hereto failing to take such actions as are required of it hereunder) in accordance with its specified
terms or otherwise breach such provisions. The parties acknowledge and agree that each party will be entitled to an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the
terms and provisions hereof in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, except that if jurisdiction is not then available in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, then in any federal court located in the State of Delaware or any
other Delaware state court, this being in addition to any other remedy to which such party is entitled at law or in equity. Each of the parties hereby further waives (a) any defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law
would be adequate and (b) any requirement under any law to post security as a prerequisite to obtaining equitable relief.

Affiliate that is included in a Consolidated Return or Combined Return attributable to any Tax period beginning on or after January 1, 2007 other than any Tax Assets of Pivotal that arose during a
Pre-Closing Period (or portion thereof); provided, however, that, although the VMware Separate Tax Liability is to be computed on a hypothetical basis as if VMware and each VMware Affiliate were
separate from the members of the Dell Technologies Group, the fact that VMware or any VMware Affiliate is included in a Consolidated Return or a Combined Return and the effect that such inclusion has on the calculation of any Tax Item, shall
nevertheless be taken into account for purposes of computing the VMware Separate Tax Liability (for example, for purposes of calculating its R&D credit, VMware shall be entitled to its allocable share of the consolidated R&D credit of the
Dell Technologies Group); provided, further, that the VMware Separate Tax Liability shall not exceed for any relevant Tax period the amount of the Tax liability VMware would have incurred had the VMware Group not been a member of the Dell Affiliated
Group for such period. For the avoidance of doubt, the VMware Separate Tax Liability shall be computed for the relevant Tax period without regard to whether or not VMware or any VMware Affiliate would be able, on a hypothetical basis separate from
the members of the Dell Technologies Group, to utilize in an earlier or later Tax period a Tax Asset resulting from such computation. 

  
 7 

 Section 2. Preparation and Filing of Tax Returns. 

2.01 Dell Technologies’ Responsibility. Subject to the other applicable provisions of this Agreement, Dell Technologies shall have
sole and exclusive responsibility for the preparation and filing of: 
 (a) all Consolidated Returns and all Combined Returns for any taxable
period; 
 (b) all Income Tax Returns (other than Consolidated Returns and Combined Returns) with respect to Dell Technologies and/or any
Dell Technologies Affiliate for any taxable period; and 
 (c) all Non-Income Tax Returns with
respect to Dell Technologies, any Dell Technologies Affiliate, or the Dell Technologies Business or any part thereof for any taxable period. 

2.02 VMware’s Responsibility. Subject to the other applicable provisions of this Agreement, VMware shall have sole and exclusive
responsibility for the preparation and filing of: 
 (a) all Income Tax Returns (other than Consolidated Returns and Combined Returns) with
respect to VMware and/or any VMware Affiliate that are required to be filed (taking into account any extension of time which has been requested or received); and 

(b) all Non-Income Tax Returns with respect to VMware, any VMware Affiliate, or the VMware Business or
any part thereof for any taxable period. 
 2.03 Agent. Subject to the other applicable provisions of this Agreement, VMware hereby
irrevocably designates, and agrees to cause each VMware Affiliate to so designate, Dell Technologies as its sole and exclusive agent and attorney-in-fact to take such
action (including execution of documents) as Dell Technologies, in its sole discretion, may deem appropriate in any and all matters (including Audits) relating to any Tax Return described in Section 2.01 of this Agreement. 

2.04 Manner of Tax Return Preparation. 

(a) Unless otherwise required by a Taxing Authority, the parties hereby agree to prepare and file all Tax Returns, and to take all other
actions, in a manner consistent with (1) this Agreement, (2) any Tax Opinion, (3) any Supplemental Tax Opinion, (4) any Ruling, and (5) any Supplemental Ruling. All Tax Returns shall be filed on a timely basis (taking into
account applicable extensions) by the party responsible for filing such returns under this Agreement. 
 (b) Dell Technologies shall have the
exclusive right, in its sole discretion, with respect to any Tax Return described in Section 2.01 of this Agreement, to determine (1) the manner in which such Tax Return shall be prepared and filed, including the elections, method of
accounting, positions, conventions and principles of taxation to be used and the manner in which any Tax Item shall be reported, (2) whether any extensions shall be requested, (3) the elections that will be made by Dell Technologies, any
Dell Technologies Affiliate, VMware, and/or any VMware Affiliate on such Tax Return, (4) whether any amended Tax Returns shall be filed, (5) whether any claims for refund shall be made, (6) whether any refunds shall be paid by way of

  
 8 

 
refund or credited against any liability for the related Tax, and (7) whether to retain outside firms to prepare and/or review such Tax Returns; provided, however, that Dell
Technologies shall consult with VMware prior to changing any method of accounting if such action would solely impact VMware or VMware Affiliates. In the case of any Consolidated Return or Combined Return that reports a VMware Separate Tax Liability
in excess of five million dollars ($5,000,000), Dell Technologies shall provide to VMware a pro forma draft of the portion of such Tax Return that reflects the VMware Separate Tax Liability and a statement showing in reasonable detail Dell
Technologies’ calculation of the VMware Separate Tax Liability (including copies of all worksheets and other materials used in preparation thereof) at least twenty-one (21) days prior to the due date
(with applicable extensions) for the filing of such Tax Return for VMware’s review and comment. VMware shall provide its comments to Dell Technologies at least ten (10) days prior to the due date (with applicable extensions) for the filing
of such Tax Return. In the case of a dispute regarding the reporting of any Tax Item on such Tax Return or the requesting of a change of method of accounting which would solely impact VMware or VMware Affiliates, which the parties cannot resolve,
Dell Technologies and VMware shall jointly retain a nationally recognized accounting firm that is mutually agreed upon by Dell Technologies and VMware (the “Independent Accountant”) to determine whether the proposed reporting of
Dell Technologies or VMware is more appropriate. If Dell Technologies and VMware are unable to agree, the Independent Accountant shall be Deloitte Tax LLP. The relevant Tax Item shall be reported in the manner that the Independent Accountant
determines is more appropriate, and such determination shall be final and binding on Dell Technologies and VMware. If VMware has not provided its comments on the pro forma draft of the portion of the Tax Return, or in the case of a dispute regarding
the reporting of any Tax Item, such dispute has not been resolved by the due date (with applicable extension) for the filing of any Tax Return, Dell Technologies shall file such Tax Return reporting all Tax Items in the manner as originally set
forth on the pro forma draft of the portion of the Tax Return provided to VMware; provided, however, that Dell Technologies agrees that it will thereafter file an amended Tax Return, if necessary, reporting any disputed Tax Item in the
manner determined by the Independent Accountant, and any other Tax Item as agreed upon by Dell Technologies and VMware. The fees and expenses incurred in retaining the Independent Accountant shall be borne equally by Dell Technologies and VMware,
except that if the Independent Accountant determines that the proposed reporting of the disputed Tax Item(s) submitted to the Independent Accountant for its determination by a party is frivolous, has not been asserted in good faith or for which
there is not substantial authority, one hundred percent (100%) of the fees and expenses of the Independent Accountant shall be borne by such party. 

(c) Information. VMware shall timely provide, in accordance with Dell Technologies’ internal tax return calendar, which will be
provided to VMware on a rolling one-year schedule, all information necessary for Dell Technologies to prepare all Tax Returns and compute all estimated Tax payments (for purposes of Section 7.01 of this
Agreement). If VMware does not meet these deadlines, the Section 2.04(b) notice period to VMware shall be waived. 

  
 9 

 Section 3. Liability for Taxes. 

3.01 VMware’s Liability for Taxes. VMware and each VMware Affiliate shall be jointly and severally liable for the following Taxes,
and shall be entitled to receive and retain all refunds of Taxes previously incurred by VMware, any VMware Affiliate, or the VMware Business with respect to such Taxes: 

(a) all Taxes with respect to Tax Returns described in Section 2.01(a) of this Agreement to the extent that such Taxes are related to
(i) the VMware Separate Tax Liability, or (ii) the VMware Business, for any taxable period; 
 (b) all Taxes with respect to Tax
Returns described in Section 2.02 of this Agreement; and 
 (c) all Taxes imposed by any Taxing Authority with respect to the VMware
Business, VMware or any VMware Affiliate (other than in connection with the required filing of a Tax Return described in Sections 2.01(a) or 2.02 of this Agreement) for any taxable period. 

3.02 Dell Technologies’ Liability for Taxes. Dell Technologies shall be liable for the following Taxes, and shall be entitled to
receive and retain all refunds of Taxes previously incurred by Dell Technologies, any Dell Technologies Affiliate, or the Dell Technologies Business with respect to such Taxes: 

(a) except as provided in Section 3.01(a) of this Agreement, all Taxes with respect to Tax Returns described in Section 2.01(a) of
this Agreement; 
 (b) all Taxes with respect to Tax Returns described in Sections 2.01(b) or 2.01(c) of this Agreement; and 

(c) all Taxes imposed by any Taxing Authority with respect to Dell Technologies, any Dell Technologies Affiliate, or the Dell Technologies
Business (other than in connection with the required filing of a Tax Return described in Section 2.01 of this Agreement) for any taxable period. 

3.03 Taxes, Refunds and Credits. Notwithstanding Sections 3.01 and 3.02 of this Agreement, (i) Dell Technologies shall be liable
for all Taxes incurred by any person with respect to the Dell Technologies Business for all periods and shall be entitled to all refunds and credits of Taxes previously incurred by any person with respect to such Taxes, and (ii) VMware and each
VMware Affiliate shall be jointly and severally liable for all Taxes incurred by any person with respect to the VMware Business for all periods and shall be entitled to all refunds and credits of Taxes previously incurred by any person with respect
to such Taxes. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to require compensation, by payment, credit, offset or otherwise, by Dell Technologies (or any Dell Technologies Affiliate) to
VMware (or any VMware Affiliate) for any loss, deduction, credit or other Tax attribute arising in connection with, or related to, VMware, any VMware Affiliate, or the VMware Business, that is shown on, or otherwise reflected with respect to, any
Tax Return described in Section 2.01 of this Agreement; provided, however, that in the event that the VMware Separate Tax Liability with respect to a particular taxable period is less than zero, Dell Technologies shall pay to
VMware an amount equal to the Tax Benefit that the Dell Technologies Group recognizes as a result of the VMware Separate Tax Liability being less than zero for such taxable period. 

  
 10 

 3.04 Payment of Tax Liability. If one party is liable or responsible for Taxes, under
Sections 3.01 through 3.03 of this Agreement, with respect to Tax Returns for which another party is responsible for filing, or with respect to Taxes that are paid by another party, then the liable or responsible party shall pay the Taxes (or a
reimbursement of such Taxes) to the other party pursuant to Section 7.05 of this Agreement. 
 3.05 Computation. Dell
Technologies shall provide VMware with a written calculation in reasonable detail (including, upon reasonable request, copies of all work sheets and other materials used in preparation thereof) setting forth the amount of any VMware Separate Tax
Liability or estimated VMware Separate Tax Liability (for purposes of Section 7.01 of this Agreement) and any Taxes related to the VMware Business. VMware shall have the right to review and comment on such calculation. Any dispute with respect
to such calculation shall be resolved pursuant to Section 10.03 of this Agreement; provided, however, that, notwithstanding any dispute with respect to any such calculation, in no event shall any payment attributable to the amount
of any VMware Separate Tax Liability or estimated VMware Separate Tax Liability be paid later than the date provided in Section 7 of this Agreement. 

Section 3A. Section 965 Toll Charge. 

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, VMware’s liability for amounts pursuant to Section 965 of the Code shall
be solely governed by the Section 965 Letter Agreement dated April 1, 2019. Any Tax of Pivotal arising in connection with Section 965 shall be deemed to be attributable to a Pre-Closing Period
for purposes of this Agreement. 
 Section 4. Deconsolidation Events. 

4.01 Tax Allocations. Although neither party has any plan or intent to effectuate any transaction that would constitute a
Deconsolidation Event, the parties have set forth how certain Tax matters with respect to a Deconsolidation Event would be handled in the event that, as a result of changed circumstances, a transaction that constitutes a Deconsolidation Event is
pursued at some future time. 
 (a) Allocation of Tax Items. In the case of a Deconsolidation Event, all Tax computations for
(1) any Pre-Deconsolidation Periods ending on the date of the Deconsolidation Event and (2) the immediately following taxable period of VMware or any VMware Affiliate, shall be made pursuant to the
principles of section 1.1502-76(b) of the Treasury Regulations or of a corresponding provision under the laws of other jurisdictions, as reasonably determined by Dell Technologies, taking into account all
reasonable suggestions made by VMware with respect thereto. 
 (b) Allocation of Tax Assets. In the case of a Deconsolidation Event,
Dell Technologies and VMware shall cooperate in determining the allocation of any Tax Assets among Dell Technologies, each Dell Technologies Affiliate, VMware, and each VMware Affiliate. The parties hereby agree that in the absence of controlling
legal authority or unless otherwise provided under this Agreement, Tax Assets shall be allocated to the legal entity that is required under Section 3 of this Agreement to bear the liability for the Tax associated with such Tax Asset, or in the
case where no party is required hereunder to bear such liability, the party 

  
 11 

 
that incurred the cost or burden associated with the creation of such Tax Asset. For the avoidance of doubt, no Tax Asset taken into account for VMware’s benefit in determining the VMware
Separate Tax Liability for any relevant period prior to a Deconsolidation Event shall again be allocated to VMware upon a Deconsolidation Event. 

4.02 Carrybacks. 
 (a)
In General. In the case of a Deconsolidation Event, Dell Technologies agrees to pay to VMware the Tax Benefit from the use in any Pre-Deconsolidation Period of a carryback of any Tax Asset of the VMware
Group from a Post-Deconsolidation Period (other than a carryback of any Tax Asset attributable to Distribution Taxes for which the liability is borne by Dell Technologies or any Dell Technologies Affiliate). If subsequent to the payment by Dell
Technologies to VMware of the Tax Benefit of a carryback of a Tax Asset of the VMware Group, there shall be a Final Determination which results in a decrease (1) to the amount of the Tax Asset so carried back or (2) to the amount of such
Tax Benefit, VMware shall repay to Dell Technologies any amount which would not have been payable to VMware pursuant to this Section 4.02(a) had the amount of the benefit been determined in light of these events. Nothing in this
Section 4.02(a) shall require Dell Technologies to file an amended Tax Return or claim for refund of Income Taxes; provided, however, that Dell Technologies shall use its reasonable efforts to use any carryback of a Tax Asset of
the VMware Group that is carried back under this Section 4.02(a). 
 (b) Net Operating Losses. In the case of a Deconsolidation
Event, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, VMware hereby expressly agrees to elect (under section 172(b)(3) of the Code and, to the extent feasible, any similar provision of any state, local or
non-U.S. Tax law, including section 1.1502-21T(b)(3) of the Treasury Regulations) to relinquish any right to carryback net operating losses to any Pre-Deconsolidation Periods of Dell Technologies (in which event no payment shall be due from Dell Technologies to VMware in respect of such net operating losses). 

4.03 Continuing Covenants. 

(a) Generally. Each of Dell Technologies (for itself and each Dell Technologies Affiliate) and VMware (for itself and each VMware Affiliate)
agrees (1) not to take any action reasonably expected to result in an increased Tax liability to the other, a reduction in a Tax Asset of the other or an increased liability to the other under this Agreement, and (2) to take any action
reasonably requested by the other that would reasonably be expected to result in a Tax Benefit or avoid a Tax Detriment to the other, provided, in either such case, that the taking or refraining to take such action does not result in any additional
cost not fully compensated for by the other party or any other adverse effect to such party. The parties hereby acknowledge that the preceding sentence is not intended to limit, and therefore shall not apply to, the rights of the parties with
respect to matters otherwise covered by this Agreement. 
 (b) Actions with Respect to Pivotal. Each of Dell Technologies (for itself
and each Dell Technologies Affiliate) and VMware (for itself and each VMware Affiliate) agrees not to take, and to cause Pivotal (and its affiliates) not to take, any of the following actions without the prior written consent of Dell Technologies:
(i) the liquidation or deemed liquidation of 

  
 12 

 
Pivotal for U.S. federal income tax purposes, (ii) the transfer by Pivotal or its subsidiaries of any material amount of assets outside the ordinary course of business, (iii) the merger
of Pivotal or any subsidiary of Pivotal into any other entity, or (iv) the sale, transfer or other disposition of equity interests in Pivotal; provided, that (x) VMware shall not be required to seek Dell Technologies’ consent for any
such action if VMware determines in good faith that the risk such action would cause VMware to cease to be a member of the Dell Affiliated Group is de minimis and (y) if VMware is required to seek Dell Technologies’ consent, Dell
Technologies may not withhold such consent unless Dell Technologies determines, in its good faith sole discretion that such action could reasonably be expected to cause VMware to cease to be a member of the Dell Affiliated Group. VMware shall keep
Dell Technologies reasonably informed in advance of any non-de minimis action described in clauses (i)-(iv) of this Section 4.03(b). 

Section 5. Distribution Taxes. 
 5.01
Liability for Distribution Taxes. Although neither party has any plan or intent to effectuate a Distribution, the parties have set forth how certain Tax matters with respect to a Distribution would be handled in the event that, as a result of
changed circumstances, a Distribution is pursued at some future time. 
 (a) Dell Technologies’ Liability for Distribution Taxes.
In the event of a Distribution, notwithstanding Sections 3.01 through 3.03 of this Agreement, Dell Technologies and each Dell Technologies Affiliate shall be jointly and severally liable for any Distribution Taxes, to the extent that such
Distribution Taxes are attributable to, caused by, or result from, one or more of the following: 
 (i) any action or omission by Dell
Technologies (or any Dell Technologies Affiliate) inconsistent with any information, covenant, representation, or material related to Dell Technologies, any Dell Technologies Affiliate, or the Dell Technologies Business in an Officer’s
Certificate, Tax Opinion, Supplemental Tax Opinion, Ruling Documents, Supplemental Ruling Documents, Ruling, or Supplemental Ruling (for the avoidance of doubt, disclosure of any action or fact that is inconsistent with any information, covenant,
representation, or material submitted to Tax Counsel, the IRS, or other Taxing Authority, as applicable, in connection with an Officer’s Certificate, Tax Opinion, Supplemental Tax Opinion, Ruling Documents, Supplemental Ruling Documents,
Ruling, or Supplemental Ruling shall not relieve Dell Technologies (or any Dell Technologies Affiliate) of liability under this Agreement); 

(ii) any action or omission by Dell Technologies (or any Dell Technologies Affiliate), including a cessation, transfer to affiliates, or
disposition of its active trades or businesses, or an issuance of stock, stock buyback or payment of an extraordinary dividend by Dell Technologies (or any Dell Technologies Affiliate) following a Distribution; 

(iii) any acquisition of any stock or assets of Dell Technologies (or any Dell Technologies Affiliate) by one or more other persons (other
than VMware or a VMware Affiliate) prior to or following a Distribution; or 

  
 13 

 (iv) any issuance of stock by Dell Technologies (or any Dell Technologies Affiliate), or
change in ownership of stock in Dell Technologies (or any Dell Technologies Affiliate). 
 (b) VMware’s Liability for Distribution
Taxes. In the event of a Distribution, notwithstanding Sections 3.01 through 3.03 of this Agreement, VMware and each VMware Affiliate shall be jointly and severally liable for any Distribution Taxes, to the extent that such Distribution Taxes
are attributable to, caused by, or result from, one or more of the following: 
 (i) any action or omission by VMware (or any VMware
Affiliate) after a Distribution at any time, that is inconsistent with any information, covenant, representation, or material related to VMware, any VMware Affiliate, or the VMware Business in an Officer’s Certificate, Tax Opinion, Supplemental
Tax Opinion, Ruling Documents, Supplemental Ruling Documents, Ruling, or Supplemental Ruling (for the avoidance of doubt, disclosure by VMware (or any VMware Affiliate) to Dell Technologies (or any Dell Technologies Affiliate) of any action or fact
that is inconsistent with any information, covenant, representation, or material submitted to Tax Counsel, the IRS, or other Taxing Authority, as applicable, in connection with an Officer’s Certificate, Tax Opinion, Supplemental Tax Opinion,
Ruling Documents, Supplemental Ruling Documents, Ruling, or Supplemental Ruling shall not relieve VMware (or any VMware Affiliate) of liability under this Agreement); 

(ii) any action or omission by VMware (or any VMware Affiliate) after the date of a Distribution (including any act or omission that is in
furtherance of, connected to, or part of a plan or series of related transactions (within the meaning of section 355(e) of the Code) occurring on or prior to the date of a Distribution) including a cessation, transfer to affiliates or disposition of
the active trades or businesses of VMware (or any VMware Affiliate), stock buyback or payment of an extraordinary dividend; 
 (iii) any
acquisition of any stock or assets of VMware (or any VMware Affiliate) by one or more other persons (other than Dell Technologies or any Dell Technologies Affiliate) prior to or following a Distribution; or 

(iv) any issuance of stock by VMware (or any VMware Affiliate) after a Distribution, including any issuance pursuant to the exercise of
employee stock options or other employment related arrangements or the exercise of warrants, or change in ownership of stock in VMware (or any VMware Affiliate) after a Distribution. 

(c) Joint Liability for Remaining Distribution Taxes. Dell Technologies shall be liable for fifty percent (50%) and VMware and each
VMware Affiliate shall be jointly and severally liable for fifty percent (50%), of any Distribution Taxes not otherwise allocated by Sections 5.01(a) or (b) of this Agreement. 

5.02 Continuing Covenants. 

(a) VMware Restrictions. VMware agrees that, so long as a Distribution could, in the reasonable discretion of Dell Technologies, be
effectuated, VMware will not knowingly take or fail to take, or permit any VMware Affiliate to knowingly take or fail to take, any action that could reasonably be expected to preclude Dell Technologies’ ability to effectuate

  
 14 

 
a Distribution. In the event of a Distribution, VMware agrees that (1) it will take, or cause any VMware Affiliate to take, any action reasonably requested by Dell Technologies in order to
enable Dell Technologies to effectuate a Distribution and (2) it will not take or fail to take, or permit any VMware Affiliate to take or fail to take, any action where such action or failure to act would be inconsistent with any information,
covenant, representation, or material that relates to facts or matters related to VMware (or any VMware Affiliate) or within the control of VMware and is contained in an Officer’s Certificate, Tax Opinion, Supplemental Tax Opinion, Ruling
Documents, Supplemental Ruling Documents, Ruling, or Supplemental Ruling (except where such information, covenant, representation, or material was not previously disclosed to VMware) other than as permitted by Section 5.02(c) of this Agreement.
For this purpose an action is considered inconsistent with a representation if the representation states that there is no plan or intention to take such action. In the event of a Distribution, VMware agrees that it will not take (and it will cause
the VMware Affiliates to refrain from taking) any position on a Tax Return that is inconsistent with such Distribution qualifying under section 355 of the Code. 

(b) Dell Technologies Restrictions. In the event of a Distribution, Dell Technologies agrees that it will not take or fail to take, or
permit any Dell Technologies Affiliate to take or fail to take, any action where such action or failure to act would be inconsistent with any material, information, covenant or representation that relates to facts or matters related to Dell
Technologies (or any Dell Technologies Affiliate) or within the control of Dell Technologies and is contained in an Officer’s Certificate, Tax Opinion, Supplemental Tax Opinion, Ruling Documents, Supplemental Ruling Documents, Ruling, or
Supplemental Ruling. For this purpose an action is considered inconsistent with a representation if the representation states that there is no plan or intention to take such action. In the event of a Distribution, Dell Technologies agrees that it
will not take (and it will cause the Dell Technologies Affiliates to refrain from taking) any position on a Tax Return that is inconsistent with such Distribution qualifying under section 355 of the Code. 

(c) Certain VMware Actions Following a Distribution. In the event of a Distribution, VMware agrees that, during the two (2) year
period following a Distribution, without first obtaining, at VMware’s own expense, either a supplemental opinion from Tax Counsel that such action will not result in Distribution Taxes (a “Supplemental Tax Opinion”) or a
Supplemental Ruling that such action will not result in Distribution Taxes, unless in any such case Dell Technologies and VMware agree otherwise, VMware shall not (1) sell all or substantially all of the assets of VMware or any VMware
Affiliate, (2) merge VMware or any VMware Affiliate with another entity, without regard to which party is the surviving entity, (3) transfer any assets of VMware in a transaction described in section 351 (other than a transfer to a
corporation which files a Consolidated Return with VMware and which is wholly-owned, directly or indirectly, by VMware) or subparagraph (C) or (D) of section 368(a)(1) of the Code, (4) issue stock of VMware or any VMware Affiliate (or any
instrument that is convertible or exchangeable into any such stock) in an acquisition or public or private offering, or (5) facilitate or otherwise participate in any acquisition of stock in VMware that would result in any shareholder owning
five percent (5%) or more of the outstanding stock of VMware. VMware (or any VMware Affiliate) shall only undertake any of such actions after Dell Technologies’ receipt of such Supplemental Tax Opinion or Supplemental Ruling and pursuant to the
terms and conditions of any such Supplemental Tax Opinion or Supplemental Ruling or as otherwise consented to in writing in advance by Dell Technologies. The parties hereby agree that they will 

  
 15 

 
act in good faith to take all reasonable steps necessary to amend this Section 5.02(c), from time to time, by mutual agreement, to (i) add certain actions to the list contained herein,
or (ii) remove certain actions from the list contained herein, in either case, in order to reflect any relevant change in law, regulation or administrative interpretation occurring after the date of this Agreement. 

(d) Notice of Specified Transactions. Not later than twenty (20) days prior to entering into any oral or written contract or
agreement, and not later than five (5) days after it first becomes aware of any negotiations, plan or intention (regardless of whether it is a party to such negotiations, plan or intention), regarding any of the transactions described in
paragraph (c), VMware shall provide written notice of its intent to consummate such transaction or the negotiations, plan or intention of which it becomes aware, as the case may be, to Dell Technologies. 

(e) VMware Cooperation. VMware agrees that, at the request of Dell Technologies, VMware shall cooperate fully with Dell Technologies to
take any action necessary or reasonably helpful to effectuate a Distribution, including seeking to obtain, as expeditiously as possible, a Tax Opinion, Supplemental Tax Opinion, Ruling, and/or Supplemental Ruling. Such cooperation shall include the
execution of any documents that may be necessary or reasonably helpful in connection with obtaining any Tax Opinion, Supplemental Tax Opinion, Ruling, and/or Supplemental Ruling (including any (i) power of attorney, (ii) Officer’s
Certificate, (iii) Ruling Documents, (iv) Supplemental Ruling Documents, and/or (v) reasonably requested written representations confirming that (a) VMware has read the Officer’s Certificate, Ruling Documents, and/or
Supplemental Ruling Documents and (b) all information and representations, if any, relating to VMware, any VMware Affiliate or the VMware Business contained therein are true, correct and complete in all material respects). 

(f) Earnings and Profits. Dell Technologies will advise VMware in writing of the decrease in Dell Technologies earnings and profits or
the earnings and profits of a Dell Technologies Affiliate attributable to a Distribution under section 312(h) of the Code on or before the first anniversary of a Distribution; provided, however, that Dell Technologies shall provide
VMware with estimates of such amounts (determined in accordance with past practice) prior to such anniversary as reasonably requested by VMware. 

Section 6. Indemnification. 
 6.01
In General. Dell Technologies and each member of the Dell Technologies Group shall jointly and severally indemnify VMware, each VMware Affiliate, and their respective directors, officers and employees, and hold them harmless from and against
any and all Taxes for which Dell Technologies or any Dell Technologies Affiliate is liable under this Agreement and any loss, cost, damage or expense, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, that is attributable to, or results from, the
failure of Dell Technologies, any Dell Technologies Affiliate or any director, officer or employee to make any payment required to be made under this Agreement. VMware and each member of the VMware Group shall jointly and severally indemnify Dell
Technologies, each Dell Technologies Affiliate, and their respective directors, officers and employees, and hold them harmless from and against any and all Taxes for which VMware or any VMware Affiliate is liable under this Agreement and any loss,
cost, damage or expense, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, that is attributable to, or results from, the failure of VMware, any VMware Affiliate or any director, officer or employee to make any payment required to be made under
this Agreement. 

  
 16 

 6.02 Inaccurate or Incomplete Information. Dell Technologies and each member of the
Dell Technologies Group shall jointly and severally indemnify VMware, each VMware Affiliate, and their respective directors, officers and employees, and hold them harmless from and against any cost, fine, penalty, or other expense of any kind
attributable to the failure of Dell Technologies or any Dell Technologies Affiliate in supplying VMware or any VMware Affiliate with inaccurate or incomplete information, in connection with the preparation of any Tax Return. VMware and each member
of the VMware Group shall jointly and severally indemnify Dell Technologies, each Dell Technologies Affiliate, and their respective directors, officers and employees, and hold them harmless from and against any cost, fine, penalty, or other expenses
of any kind attributable to the failure of VMware or any VMware Affiliate in supplying Dell Technologies or any Dell Technologies Affiliate with inaccurate or incomplete information, in connection with the preparation of any Tax Return. 

6.03 No Indemnification for Tax Items. Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as a guarantee of the existence or amount of any
loss, credit, carryforward, basis or other Tax Item, whether past, present or future, of Dell Technologies, any Dell Technologies Affiliate, VMware or any VMware Affiliate. In addition, for the avoidance of doubt, for purposes of determining any
amount owed between the parties hereto, all such determinations shall be made without regard to any financial accounting tax asset or liability or other financial accounting items. 

Section 7. Payments. 
 7.01
Estimated Tax Payments. Not later than three (3) days prior to each Estimated Tax Installment Date with respect to a taxable period for which a Consolidated Return or a Combined Return will be filed, VMware shall pay to Dell Technologies
on behalf of the VMware Group an amount equal to the amount of any estimated VMware Separate Tax Liability that VMware otherwise would have been required to pay to a Taxing Authority on such Estimated Tax Installment Date. If the VMware Separate Tax
Liability for such taxable period is less than zero, then Dell Technologies shall pay to VMware an amount equal to the Tax Benefit that the Dell Technologies Group anticipates it will recognize for the entire year as a result of the VMware Separate
Tax Liability being less than zero for such taxable period. Not later than seven (7) days prior to each such Estimated Tax Installment Date, Dell Technologies shall provide VMware with a written notice setting forth the amount payable by VMware
in respect of such estimated VMware Separate Tax Liability and a calculation of such amount. 
 7.02
True-Up Payments. Not later than ten (10) business days after receipt of any VMware Separate Tax Liability computation pursuant to Section 3.05 of this Agreement, VMware shall pay to Dell
Technologies, or Dell Technologies shall pay to VMware, as appropriate, an amount equal to the difference, if any, between the (i) VMware Separate Tax Liability and (ii) the amount equal to (A) the aggregate amount paid by VMware to
Dell Technologies with respect to such period under Section 7.01 of this Agreement minus (B) the aggregate amounts paid by Dell Technologies to VMware with respect to such period under Section 7.01 of this Agreement. 

  
 17 

 7.03 Redetermination Amounts. In the event of a redetermination of any Tax Item
reflected on any Consolidated Return or Combined Return (other than Tax Items relating to Distribution Taxes), as a result of a refund of Taxes paid, a Final Determination or any settlement or compromise with any Taxing Authority which in any such
case would affect the VMware Separate Tax Liability, Dell Technologies shall prepare a revised pro forma Tax Return in accordance with Section 2.04(b) of this Agreement for the relevant taxable period reflecting the redetermination of such Tax
Item as a result of such refund, Final Determination, settlement or compromise. VMware shall pay to Dell Technologies, or Dell Technologies shall pay to VMware, as appropriate, an amount equal to the difference, if any, between the VMware Separate
Tax Liability reflected on such revised pro forma Tax Return and the VMware Separate Tax liability for such period as originally computed pursuant to this Agreement. 

7.04 Payments of Refunds, Credits and Reimbursements. If one party receives a refund or credit of any Tax to which the other party is
entitled pursuant to Section 3.03 of this Agreement, the party receiving such refund or credit shall pay to the other party the amount of such refund or credit pursuant to Section 7.05 of this Agreement. If one party pays a Tax with
respect to which the other party is liable of responsible pursuant to Sections 3.01 through 3.03 of this Agreement, then the liable or responsible party shall pay to the other party the amount of such Tax pursuant to Section 7.05 of this
Agreement. 
 7.05 Payments Under This Agreement. In the event that one party is required to make a payment to another party (the
“Owed Party”) pursuant to this Agreement, then such payments shall be made according to this Section 7.05. 
 (a) In
General. All payments shall be made to the Owed Party or to the appropriate Taxing Authority as specified by the Owed Party within the time prescribed for payment in this Agreement, or if no period is prescribed, within ten (10) days after
delivery of written notice of payment owing together with a computation of the amounts due. 
 (b) Treatment of Payments. Unless
otherwise required by any Final Determination, the parties agree that any payments made by one party to another party pursuant to this Agreement (other than (i) payments for the VMware Separate Tax Liability for any Post-Deconsolidation Period,
(ii) payments of interest pursuant to Section 7.05(e) of this Agreement, and (iii) payments of After Tax Amounts pursuant to Section 7.05(d) of this Agreement) shall be treated for all Tax and financial accounting purposes as
nontaxable payments (dividend distributions or capital contributions, as the case may be) made immediately prior to the Deconsolidation Event and, accordingly, as not includible in the taxable income of the recipient or as deductible by the payor.

 (c) Prompt Performance. All actions required to be taken (including payments) by any party under this Agreement shall be performed
within the time prescribed for performance in this Agreement, or if no period is prescribed, such actions shall be performed promptly. 

  
 18 

 (d) After Tax Amounts. If pursuant to a Final Determination it is determined that the
receipt or accrual of any payment made under this Agreement (other than payments of interest pursuant to Section 7.05(e) of this Agreement) is subject to any Tax, the party making such payment shall be liable for (a) the After Tax Amount
with respect to such payment and (b) interest at the rate described in Section 7.05(e) of this Agreement on the amount of such Tax from the date such Tax accrues through the date of payment of such After Tax Amount. A party making a demand
for a payment pursuant to this Agreement and for a payment of an After Tax Amount with respect to such payment shall separately specify and compute such After Tax Amount. However, a party may choose not to specify an After Tax Amount in a demand for
payment pursuant to this Agreement without thereby being deemed to have waived its right subsequently to demand an After Tax Amount with respect to such payment. VMware’s liability for any and all payments of the VMware Separate Tax Liability
for any Post-Deconsolidation Period shall be increased by the After Tax Amount with respect to such payment and decreased by the corresponding Tax Benefit, if any, attributable to such VMware Separate Tax Liability. 

(e) Interest. Payments pursuant to this Agreement that are not made within the period prescribed in this Agreement (the “Payment
Period”) shall bear interest for the period from and including the date immediately following the last date of the Payment Period through and including the date of payment at a per annum rate equal to the prime rate as published in The
Wall Street Journal on the last day of such Payment Period. Such interest will be payable at the same time as the payment to which it relates and shall be calculated on the basis of a year of three hundred sixty-five (365) days and the
actual number of days for which due. 
 Section 8. Tax Proceedings. 

8.01 In General. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, (i) with respect to Tax Returns described in Section 2.01 of
this Agreement, Dell Technologies and (ii) with respect to Tax Returns described in Section 2.02 of this Agreement, VMware (in either case, the “Controlling Party”), shall have the exclusive right, in its sole discretion,
to control, contest, and represent the interests of Dell Technologies, any Dell Technologies Affiliate, VMware, and/or any VMware Affiliate in any Audit relating to such Tax Return and to resolve, settle or agree to any deficiency, claim or
adjustment proposed, asserted or assessed in connection with or as a result of any such Audit. The Controlling Party’s rights shall extend to any matter pertaining to the management and control of an Audit, including execution of waivers,
choice of forum, scheduling of conferences and the resolution of any Tax Item. Any costs incurred in handling, settling, or contesting an Audit shall be borne by the Controlling Party. 

8.02 Participation of non-Controlling Party. Except as otherwise provided in Section 8.04
of this Agreement, the non-Controlling Party shall have control over decisions to resolve, settle or otherwise agree to any deficiency, claim or adjustment with respect to any Sole Responsibility Item. Except
as otherwise provided in Section 8.04 of this Agreement, the Controlling Party and the non-Controlling Party shall have joint control over decisions to resolve, settle or otherwise agree to any
deficiency, claim or adjustment with respect to any Joint Responsibility Item. Except as otherwise provided in Section 8.04 of this Agreement, the Controlling Party shall not settle any Audit it controls concerning a Tax Item on a basis that
would reasonably be expected to adversely affect the non-Controlling Party by at least one hundred fifty thousand dollars ($150,000) without obtaining such non-Controlling Party’s consent, which consent
shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed if failure to consent would adversely affect the Controlling Party. 

  
 19 

 8.03 Notice. Within ten (10) business days after a party becomes aware of the
existence of a Tax issue that may give rise to an indemnification obligation under this Agreement, such party shall give prompt notice to the other party of such issue (such notice shall contain factual information, to the extent known, describing
any asserted tax liability in reasonable detail), and shall promptly forward to the other party copies of all notices and material communications with any Taxing Authority relating to such issue. Notwithstanding any provision in Section 10.15
of this Agreement to the contrary, if a party to this Agreement fails to provide the other party notice as required by this Section 8.03, and the failure results in a detriment to the other party then any amount which the other party is
otherwise required to pay pursuant to this Agreement shall be reduced by the amount of such detriment. 
 8.04 Control of Distribution Tax
Proceedings. In the event of a Distribution, Dell Technologies shall have the exclusive right, in its sole discretion, to control, contest, and represent the interests of Dell Technologies, any Dell Technologies Affiliate, VMware, and/or any
VMware Affiliate in any Audits relating to Distribution Taxes and to resolve, settle or agree to any deficiency, claim or adjustment proposed, asserted or assessed in connection with or as a result of any such Audit; provided, however,
that Dell Technologies shall not settle any such audit with respect to Distribution Taxes with a Taxing Authority that would reasonably be expected to result in a material Tax cost to VMware or any VMware Affiliate, without the prior consent of
VMware, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. Dell Technologies’ rights shall extend to any matter pertaining to the management and control of such Audit, including execution of waivers, choice of forum,
scheduling of conferences and the resolution of any Tax Item; provided, however, that to the extent that VMware is obligated to bear at least fifty percent (50%) of the liability for any Distribution Taxes under Section 5.01 of
this Agreement, Dell Technologies and VMware shall have joint control over decisions to resolve, settle or otherwise agree to any deficiency, claim or adjustment. VMware may assume sole control of any Audits relating to Distribution Taxes if it
acknowledges in writing that it has sole liability for any Distribution Taxes under Section 5.01 of this Agreement that might arise in such Audit and can demonstrate to the reasonable satisfaction of Dell Technologies that it can satisfy its
liability for any such Distribution Taxes. If VMware is unable to demonstrate to the reasonable satisfaction of Dell Technologies that it will be able to satisfy its liability for such Distribution Taxes, but acknowledges in writing that it has sole
liability for any Distribution Taxes under Section 5.01 of this Agreement, VMware and Dell Technologies shall have joint control over the Audit. 

Section 9. Stock Options and Restricted Stock. 

9.01 In General. 
 (a) The
parties hereto agree that, so long as VMware continues to be a member of the Consolidated Group of which Dell Technologies is the common parent, Dell Technologies shall be entitled to any Tax Benefit arising by reason of (i) exercises of
Options to purchase shares of Dell Technologies stock and (ii) the lapse of any restrictions with respect to shares of Dell Technologies stock subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture (within the meaning

  
 20 

 
of section 83 of the Code). The parties hereto agree (i) to report all Tax deductions with respect to exercises of Options to purchase shares of Dell Technologies stock and the lapse of any
restrictions with respect to shares of Dell Technologies stock subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture (within the meaning of section 83 of the Code) consistently with this Section 9.01(a), to the extent permitted by the Tax law, and
(ii) that such Tax deductions shall not be considered Tax deductions of VMware or any VMware Affiliate for purposes of computing the VMware Separate Tax Liability. 

(b) The parties hereto agree that, once VMware ceases to be a member of the Consolidated Group of which Dell Technologies is the common parent,
so long as Dell Technologies and/or any Dell Technologies Affiliate own shares of VMware stock possessing at least twenty percent (20%) of the total voting power of all of the issued and outstanding shares of VMware stock, VMware shall pay the
amount of the Tax Benefit arising by reason of (i) exercises of Options to purchase shares of Dell Technologies stock and (ii) the lapse of any restrictions with respect to shares of Dell Technologies stock subject to a substantial risk of
forfeiture (within the meaning of section 83 of the Code) to Dell Technologies. 
 (c) The parties hereto agree that, once the shares of
VMware stock owned by Dell Technologies and any Dell Technologies Affiliates possess less than twenty percent (20%) of the total voting power of all of the issued and outstanding shares of VMware stock, then upon the exercise of any Option to
purchase shares of Dell Technologies stock by any VMware Group employee of former employee, VMware shall pay to Dell Technologies an amount equal to the excess of (i) the fair market value of such shares of Dell Technologies stock issued, over
(ii) the strike price paid by the VMware Group employee of former employee with respect thereto. 
 9.02 Notices, Withholding,
Reporting. Dell Technologies shall promptly notify VMware of any event giving rise to income to any VMware Group employees or former employees in connection with exercises of Options to purchase shares of Dell Technologies stock or the lapse of
any restrictions with respect to shares of Dell Technologies stock subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture (within the meaning of section 83 of the Code). If required by the Tax law, VMware shall withhold applicable Taxes and satisfy applicable
Tax reporting obligations in connection therewith. 
 9.03 Adjustments. If VMware or any VMware Affiliate as a result of a Final
Determination or any settlement or compromise with any Taxing Authority receives any Tax Benefit to which Dell Technologies is entitled under Section 9.01 of this Agreement, VMware shall pay the amount of such Tax Benefit to Dell Technologies.
If Dell Technologies or any Dell Technologies Affiliate as a result of a Final Determination or any settlement or compromise with any Taxing Authority receives any Tax Benefit to which VMware is entitled under Section 9.01 of this Agreement,
Dell Technologies shall pay the amount of such Tax Benefit to VMware. 
 Section 10. Miscellaneous Provisions.

 21 

 10.02 Other Tax Sharing Agreements.

Section 10.02(b)), (i) the Prior TSA shall continue in full force and effect with respect to taxable periods ending prior to and including the Effective Time, (ii) the First Amended and Restated TSA shall continue in full force and effect
with respect to taxable periods (or portions thereof) ending after the Effective Time and on or before the Amendment Date (“Pre-Closing Periods”) and (iii) this Agreement shall be
effective with respect to taxable periods (or portions thereof) beginning after the Amendment Date (“Post-Closing Periods”). 

(b) Pivotal Tax Sharing Agreement. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the provisions of the Pivotal Tax Sharing Agreement
shall survive and remain in effect with respect to Pre-Closing Periods; provided that in the event of any conflict between the Pivotal Tax Sharing Agreements, on the one hand, and the Prior TSA, the First
Amended and Restated TSA, or this Agreement (as applicable), on the other, the provisions of the Prior TSA, the First Amended and Restated TSA, or this Agreement (as applicable) shall control, and, for the avoidance of doubt: 

(i) If any Taxes of Pivotal attributable to a Pre-Closing Period (or portion thereof) during which
Pivotal was consolidated with Dell Technologies for U.S. federal income tax purposes are paid in a Post-Closing Period, Dell Technologies shall not require Pivotal to make a payment under the Pivotal Tax Sharing Agreement in respect of such Taxes.

 (ii) If any Taxes of Pivotal attributable to a Pre-Closing Period (or portion thereof) during
which Pivotal was not consolidated with Dell Technologies for U.S. federal income tax purposes are paid in a Post-Closing Period, Dell Technologies shall pay Pivotal an amount (in cash) sufficient to put Pivotal in the same position it would have
been in had no such Tax been paid. 
 (iii) Neither Pivotal nor VMware shall be required to make any payment to Dell Technologies in respect
of Pivotal Tax Assets that Pivotal is able to use to reduce its Tax liability with respect to a Post-Closing Period during which Pivotal is not consolidated with VMware for U.S. federal income tax purposes. 

(iv) With respect to any Post-Closing Period during which Pivotal is consolidated with VMware for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the
taxable income of Pivotal will be included in, and certain Tax Assets of Pivotal will be excluded from, the calculation of VMware Separate Tax Liability, in each case as provided in (and subject to) the definition of VMware Separate Tax Liability.

 (v) With respect to any Pre-Closing Periods of Pivotal, Dell Technologies shall control Tax
Returns and Audits pursuant to Section 2 and Section 8.01 of this Agreement as if Pivotal were a Dell Technologies Affiliate for all such periods.

duplication of payments with respect to Taxes or Tax benefits under this Agreement, the First Amended and Restated TSA and the Pivotal Tax Sharing Agreement. 

10.03 Cooperation and Exchange of Information. 

(a) Cooperation. VMware and Dell Technologies shall each cooperate fully (and each shall cause its respective affiliates to cooperate
fully) with all reasonable requests from another party for information and materials not otherwise available to the requesting party in connection with the preparation and filing of Tax Returns, claims for refund, and Audits concerning issues or
other matters covered by this Agreement or in connection with the determination of a liability for Taxes or a right to a refund of Taxes. Such cooperation shall include: 

(i) the retention until the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations, and the provision upon request, of copies of all Tax Returns,
books, records (including information regarding ownership and Tax basis of property), documentation and other information relating to the Tax Returns, including accompanying schedules, related work papers, and documents relating to rulings or other
determinations by Taxing Authorities; 
 (ii) the execution of any document that may be necessary or reasonably helpful in connection with
any tax proceeding, or the filing of a Tax Return or refund claim by a member of the Dell Technologies Group or the VMware Group, including certification, to the best of a party’s knowledge, of the accuracy and completeness of the information
it has supplied; and 
 (iii) the use of the party’s reasonable best efforts to obtain any documentation that may be necessary or
reasonably helpful in connection with any of the foregoing. Each party shall make its employees and facilities available on a reasonable and mutually convenient basis in connection with the foregoing matters. 

(b) Retention of Records. Any party that is in possession of documentation of Dell Technologies (or any Dell Technologies Affiliate) or
VMware (or any VMware Affiliate) relating to the VMware Business, including books, records, Tax Returns and all supporting schedules and information relating thereto (the “VMware Business Records”) shall retain such VMware Business
Records for a period of seven (7) years following the Effective Time. Thereafter, any party wishing to dispose of VMware Business Records in its possession (after the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations), shall provide written
notice to the other party describing the documentation proposed to be destroyed or disposed of sixty (60) business days prior to taking such action. The other party may arrange to take delivery of any or all of the documentation described in
the notice at its expense during the succeeding sixty (60) day period. 
 10.04 Dispute Resolution. In the event that Dell
Technologies and VMware disagree as to the amount or calculation of any payment to be made under this Agreement, or the interpretation or application of any provision under this Agreement, the parties shall attempt in good faith to resolve such
dispute. If such dispute is not resolved within sixty (60) business days following the commencement of the dispute, Dell Technologies and VMware shall jointly retain 

  
 23 

 
a nationally recognized law or accounting firm, which firm is independent of both parties (the “Independent Firm”), to resolve the dispute. The Independent Firm shall act as an
arbitrator to resolve all points of disagreement and its decision shall be final and binding upon all parties involved. Following the decision of the Independent Firm, Dell Technologies and VMware shall each take or cause to be taken any action
necessary to implement the decision of the Independent Firm. The fees and expenses relating to the Independent Firm shall be borne equally by Dell Technologies and VMware, except that if the Independent Firm determines that the position advanced by
either party is frivolous, has not been asserted in good faith or for which there is not substantial authority, one hundred percent (100%) of the fees and expenses of the Independent Firm shall be borne by such party. Notwithstanding anything in
this Agreement to the contrary, the dispute resolution provisions set forth in this Section 10.03 shall not be applicable to any disagreement between the parties relating to Distribution Taxes and any such dispute shall be settled in a court of
law or as otherwise agreed to by the parties. 
 10.05 Notices. All notices and other communications required or permitted to be given
hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed given upon (a) a transmitter’s confirmation of a receipt of a facsimile transmission (but only if followed by confirmed delivery of a standard overnight courier the following business day
or if delivered by hand the following business day), (b) confirmed delivery of a standard overnight courier or when delivered by hand or (c) the expiration of ten (10) business days after the date mailed by certified or registered mail
(return receipt requested), postage prepaid, to the parties at the following addresses (or at such other addresses for a party as shall be specified by like notice):

 Attention: Legal Department 

Either party may, by written notice to the other parties, change the address or the party to which any notice, request, instruction or other
documents is to be delivered. 
 10.06 Changes in Law. 

(a) Any reference to a provision of the Code or a law of another jurisdiction shall include a reference to any applicable successor provision
or law. 

  
 24 

 (b) If, due to any change in applicable law or regulations or their interpretation by any
court of law or other governing body having jurisdiction subsequent to the date of this Agreement, performance of any provision of this Agreement or any transaction contemplated thereby shall become impracticable or impossible, the parties hereto
shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to find and employ an alternative means to achieve the same or substantially the same result as that contemplated by such provision. 

10.07 Confidentiality. Each party shall hold and cause its directors, officers, employees, advisors and consultants to hold in strict
confidence, unless compelled to disclose by judicial or administrative process or, in the opinion of its counsel, by other requirements of law, all information (other than any such information relating solely to the business or affairs of such
party) concerning the other parties hereto furnished it by such other party or its representatives pursuant to this Agreement (except to the extent that such information can be shown to have been (1) in the public domain through no fault of
such party or (2) later lawfully acquired from other sources not under a duty of confidentiality by the party to which it was furnished), and each party shall not release or disclose such information to any other person, except its directors,
officers, employees, auditors, attorneys, financial advisors, bankers and other consultants who shall be advised of and agree to be bound by the provisions of this Section 10.06. Each party shall be deemed to have satisfied its obligation to
hold confidential information concerning or supplied by the other party if it exercises the same care as it takes to preserve confidentiality for its own similar information. 

10.08 Successors. This Agreement shall be binding on and inure to the benefit and detriment of any successor, by merger, acquisition of
assets or otherwise, to any of the parties hereto, to the same extent as if such successor had been an original party. 
 10.09
Affiliates. Dell Technologies shall cause to be performed, and hereby guarantees the performance of, all actions, agreements and obligations set forth herein to be performed by any Dell Technologies Affiliate, and VMware shall cause to be
performed, and hereby guarantees the performance of, all actions, agreements and obligations set forth herein to be performed by any VMware Affiliate; provided, however, that, if it is contemplated that a Dell Technologies Affiliate
may cease to be a Dell Technologies Affiliate as a result of a transfer of its stock or other ownership interests to a third party in exchange for consideration in an amount approximately equal to the fair market value of the stock or other
ownership interests transferred and such consideration is not distributed outside of the Dell Technologies Group to the shareholders of Dell Technologies, then (a) VMware shall execute a release of such Dell Technologies Affiliate from its
obligations under this Agreement effective as of such transfer provided that Dell Technologies shall have confirmed in writing its obligations and the obligations of its remaining Dell Technologies Affiliates with respect to their own obligations
and the obligations of the departing Dell Technologies Affiliate and that such departing Dell Technologies Affiliate shall have executed a release of any rights it may have against VMware or any VMware Affiliate by reason of this Agreement, or
(b) Dell Technologies shall acknowledge in writing no later than thirty (30) days prior to such cessation that it shall bear one hundred percent (100%) of the liability for the obligations of Dell Technologies and each Dell Technologies
Affiliate (including the departing Dell Technologies Affiliate) under this Agreement. If at any time VMware shall, directly or indirectly, obtain beneficial ownership of more than fifty percent (50%) of the total combined voting power of any other
entity, VMware shall cause such entity to become a party to this Agreement by executing together with Dell Technologies an agreement in substantially the same form as set forth in Schedule 10.09 and such entity shall have all rights and obligations
of an VMware Affiliate under this Agreement. 

  
 25 

 10.10 Authorization, Etc. Each of the parties hereto hereby represents and warrants
that it has the power and authority to execute, deliver and perform this Agreement, that this Agreement has been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of such party, that this Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding
obligation of each such party and that the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement by such party does not contravene or conflict with any provision of law or of its charter or bylaws or any agreement, instrument or order binding on
such party. 
 10.11 Entire Agreement. This Agreement contains the entire agreement among the parties hereto with respect to the
subject matter hereof and supersedes any prior tax sharing agreements between Dell Technologies (or any Dell Technologies Affiliate) and VMware (or any VMware Affiliate) and such prior tax sharing agreements shall have no further force and effect.
If, and to the extent, the provisions of this Agreement conflict with any agreement entered into in connection with a Distribution or another Deconsolidation Event, the provisions of this Agreement shall control. 

10.12 Applicable Law; Jurisdiction. EACH OF THE PARTIES TO THIS AGREEMENT HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY (i) AGREES THAT
THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND ALL DISPUTES, CONTROVERSIES OR CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE BREACH, TERMINATION OR VALIDITY HEREOF SHALL BE GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE,
EXCLUDING ANY CONFLICTS OF LAW RULES, (ii) TO BE SUBJECT TO, AND HEREBY CONSENTS AND SUBMITS TO, THE JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE AND OF THE FEDERAL COURTS SITTING IN THE STATE OF DELAWARE, (iii) TO THE EXTENT SUCH
PARTY IS NOT OTHERWISE SUBJECT TO SERVICE OF PROCESS IN THE STATE OF DELAWARE, HEREBY APPOINTS THE CORPORATION TRUST COMPANY, AS SUCH PARTY’S AGENT IN THE STATE OF DELAWARE FOR ACCEPTANCE OF LEGAL PROCESS AND (iv) AGREES THAT SERVICE MADE
ON ANY SUCH AGENT SET FORTH IN (iii) ABOVE SHALL HAVE THE SAME LEGAL FORCE AND EFFECT AS IF SERVED UPON SUCH PARTY PERSONALLY WITHIN THE STATE OF DELAWARE. 

10.13 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of
which together shall constitute one and the same Agreement. 
 10.14 Severability. If any term, provision, covenant, or restriction of
this Agreement is held by a court of competent jurisdiction (or an arbitrator or arbitration panel) to be invalid, void, or unenforceable, the remainder of the terms, provisions, covenants, and restrictions set forth herein shall remain in full
force and effect, and shall in no way be affected, impaired, or invalidated. In the event that any such term, provision, covenant or restriction is held to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the parties hereto shall use their best efforts to find
and employ an alternate means to achieve the same or substantially the same result as that contemplated by such terms, provisions, covenant, or restriction. 

  
 26 

 10.15 No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement is solely for the benefit of Dell
Technologies, the Dell Technologies Affiliates, VMware and the VMware Affiliates. This Agreement should not be deemed to confer upon third parties any remedy, claim, liability, reimbursement, cause of action or other rights in excess of those
existing without this Agreement. 
 10.16 Waivers, Etc. No failure or delay on the part of a party in exercising any power or right
hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the
exercise of any other right or power. No modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement nor consent to any departure by the parties therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing, and then such waiver or
consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. 
 10.17 Setoff. All payments to be made
by any party under this Agreement may be netted against payments due to such party under this Agreement, but otherwise shall be made without setoff, counterclaim or withholding, all of which are hereby expressly waived. 

10.18 Other Remedies. VMware recognizes that any failure by it or any VMware Affiliate to comply with its obligations under
Section 5 of this Agreement would, in the event of a Distribution, result in Distribution Taxes that would cause irreparable harm to Dell Technologies, Dell Technologies Affiliates, and their stockholders. Accordingly, Dell Technologies shall
be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement, this being in addition to any other remedy to which Dell Technologies is entitled at law or in
equity. 
 10.19 Amendment and Modification. This Agreement may be amended, modified or supplemented only by a written agreement
signed by all of the parties hereto. 
 10.20 Waiver of Jury Trial. Each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally waives
all right to trial by jury in any litigation, claim, action, suit, arbitration, inquiry, proceeding, investigation or counterclaim (whether based in contract, tort or otherwise) arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the actions of the
parties hereto in the negotiation, administration, performance and enforcement thereof. 
 10.21 Interpretations. The headings
contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. Whenever the words “include,” “includes” or “including” are used in this
Agreement they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.” The words “hereof,” “herein” and “herewith” and words of similar import shall, unless otherwise stated, be construed to refer to
this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision of this Agreement, and article, section, paragraph, exhibit and schedule references are to the articles, sections, paragraphs, exhibits and schedules of this Agreement unless otherwise
specified. The meaning assigned to 

  
 27 

 
each term defined herein shall be equally applicable to both the singular and the plural forms of such term, and words denoting any gender shall include all genders. Where a word or phrase is
defined herein, each of its other grammatical forms shall have a corresponding meaning. The parties have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation
arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any provisions of this Agreement. 

  
 28 

 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, each of the parties hereto has caused this Agreement to be executed by a
duly authorized officer as of the date first above written.
