Debt Financing for the Merger

Senior Secured Credit Facilities

Overview. On September 7, 2016, Denali Intermediate Inc. (“Denali Intermediate”), Dell, Dell International L.L.C. (“Dell International”), Merger Sub, the Company and certain other direct and indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries of Denali Intermediate entered into a credit agreement (the “Senior Secured Credit Agreement”) with Credit Suisse AG, Cayman Islands Branch, as term loan B administrative agent and as collateral agent, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as term loan A / revolver administrative agent and swingline lender, and certain other financial institutions as agents, issuing banks and/or lenders.

The Senior Secured Credit Agreement provides for senior secured credit facilities (the “Senior Secured Credit Facilities”) in the aggregate principal amount of $17,575 million comprising (a) term loan facilities consisting of a $5,000 million term loan B facility, a $3,700 million term loan A-1 facility, a $3,925 million term loan A-2 facility and a $1,800 million term loan A-3 facility and (b) a $3,150 million senior secured revolving credit facility, which includes capacity for up to $500 million of letters of credit and for borrowings of up to $400 million under swing-line loans. Dell International and the Company are the borrowers under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities.

The Senior Secured Credit Facilities provide that the borrowers have the right at any time subject to customary conditions to request incremental term loans or incremental revolving commitments in an aggregate principal amount of up to (a) the greater of (i) $10,000 million and (ii) 100% of Consolidated EBITDA (as defined in the Senior Secured Credit Agreement) plus (b) an amount equal to voluntary prepayments of the term loan facilities and the revolving credit facility, subject to certain requirements, plus (c) an additional unlimited amount subject to a pro forma net first lien leverage ratio of 3.25:1.0.

Interest Rate and Fees. Borrowings under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities bear interest at a rate per annum equal to an applicable margin, plus, at the borrowers’ option, either (a) a base rate, which, under the term loan B facility, is subject to an interest rate floor of 1.75% per annum, and under all other borrowings is subject to an interest rate floor of 0% per annum, or (b) a LIBOR rate, which, under the term loan B facility, is subject to an interest rate floor of 0.75% per annum, and under all other borrowings is subject to an interest rate floor of 0% per annum. The applicable margin under the term loan B facility is subject to reduction based on a first lien leverage ratio test. The applicable margins under the term loan A-1 facility, the term loan A-2 facility, the term loan A-3 facility and the revolving credit facility vary based upon a corporate ratings-based pricing schedule.

The borrowers are required to pay a commitment fee on any unutilized commitments under the revolving credit facility. The borrowers are also required to pay customary letter of credit fees.

Prepayments. The term loan facilities require the borrowers to prepay outstanding term loans, subject to certain exceptions, with a portion of certain excess cash flow, net cash proceeds of certain non-ordinary course asset sales or other dispositions of property, and net cash proceeds of certain debt not permitted to be incurred under the term loan facilities. In addition, the borrowers may voluntarily repay outstanding loans under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities at any time without premium or penalty, other than customary “breakage” costs with respect to LIBOR loans, except that voluntary prepayments of the term loan B facility are subject to a 1% prepayment premium in the event of certain voluntary prepayments or refinancings thereof that reduce the effective yield of the term loan B facility during the six-month period commencing on the date of the consummation of the Merger.

Amortization and Maturity. The term loan A-1 facility will mature on December 31, 2018 and has no amortization. The term loan A-2 facility will mature on September 7, 2021 and amortizes in equal quarterly installments in aggregate annual amounts equal to 5% of the original principal amount in each of the first two years after the date of the consummation of the Merger, 10% of the original principal amount in each of the third and fourth years after the date of the consummation of the Merger and 70% of the original principal amount in the fifth year after the date of the consummation of the Merger. The term loan A-3 facility will mature on December 31, 2018 and has no amortization. The term loan B facility will mature on September 7, 2023 and amortizes in equal quarterly installments in aggregate annual amounts equal to 1% of the original principal amount.

All obligations of the borrowers under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities and certain swap agreements, cash management arrangements and certain letters of credit provided by any lender or agent party to the Senior Secured Credit Facilities or any of their affiliates and certain other persons are unconditionally guaranteed by Denali Intermediate, certain subsidiaries of Denali Intermediate, Dell and each existing and subsequently acquired or organized direct or indirect material wholly-owned domestic restricted subsidiary of Dell, with customary exceptions.

All such obligations under the Senior Secured Credit Facilities (and the guarantees thereof) and certain swap agreements, cash management arrangements and certain letters of credit provided by any lender or agent party to the Senior Secured Credit Facilities or any of its affiliates and certain other persons are secured, subject to permitted liens and other exceptions, by:

a first priority security interest in certain tangible and intangible assets of the borrowers and the guarantors; and

•

a first-priority pledge of 100% of the capital stock of the borrowers, Dell and of each wholly-owned material restricted subsidiary of the borrowers and the guarantors (which pledge, in the case of any non-U.S. subsidiary of a U.S. subsidiary, will not include more than 65% of the voting stock of such non-U.S. subsidiary), in each case subject to certain thresholds, exceptions and permitted liens.

The collateral does not include, among other assets, (a) a pledge of the assets or equity interests of certain Dell subsidiaries, including SecureWorks Corp., Boomi Inc., Virtustream, Inc., Pivotal Software, Inc. and VMware, Inc.

Certain Covenants and Events of Default. The Senior Secured Credit Facilities contain customary affirmative covenants including, among others: delivery of annual audited and quarterly unaudited financial statements; delivery of notices of defaults, material litigation and material ERISA events; submission to certain inspections; maintenance of property and

customary insurance; payment of taxes; and compliance with laws and regulations. The Senior Secured Credit Facilities also contain customary negative covenants that, subject to certain exceptions, qualifications and “baskets,” generally limit the ability of Denali Intermediate, Dell and Dell’s and Denali Intermediate’s other restricted subsidiaries to incur debt, create liens, make fundamental changes, enter into asset sales, make certain investments, pay dividends or distribute or redeem certain equity interests, prepay or redeem certain debt and enter into certain transactions with affiliates. The term loan A-1 facility, the term loan A-2 facility, the term loan A-3 facility and revolving credit facility are subject to a first lien leverage ratio test that will be tested at the end of each fiscal quarter of Dell with respect to the preceding four consecutive fiscal quarters of Dell.

The Senior Secured Credit Facilities also contain certain customary events of default (including an event of default upon a change of control).
