Explanation of Responses:

* If the form is filed by more than one reporting person, see Instruction 4(b)(v).
** Intentional misstatements or omissions of facts constitute Federal Criminal Violations. See 18 U.S.C. 1001 and 15 U.S.C. 78ff(a).
(1) The price per share paid for the Class A Common Stock sold in the reported transaction was calculated in the manner reported in the Form 4 filed by the Reporting Person on December 20, 2016.
(2) The 1,461,514 shares of Class A Common Stock sold in the reported transaction, which is expected to close on February 15, 2017, were held directly by EMC Equity Assets LLC, a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of EMC Corporation ("EMC"). Following the reported transaction, EMC is the record holder of 35,139,359 shares of the 36,788,652 shares of Class A Common Stock reported in Column 5 of Table I, and EMC Equity Assets LLC is the record holder of the remainder of the shares of Class A Common Stock reported in Column 5 of Table I. EMC is directly wholly owned by Dell Inc., which in turn is indirectly wholly owned by Dell Technologies Inc. (the "Company") through its directly held wholly-owned subsidiary Denali Intermediate Inc. The reporting person may be deemed to beneficially own securities held by EMC and EMC Equity Assets LLC by reason of his ownership of securities representing a majority of the voting power represented by all voting securities of the Company. [footnote cont'd]
(3) [continuation] The reporting person disclaims beneficial ownership of the shares of Class A Common Stock held by EMC and EMC Equity Assets LLC except to the extent of his pecuniary interest therein.
