Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On August 23, 2017, VMware, Inc. (“VMware”) entered into Purchase Commitment Supplement No. 2 (“Supplement No. 2”) under the Stock Purchase Agreement dated as of March 29, 2017 (the “Agreement”) with its controlling stockholder, Dell Technologies Inc. (“Dell”), and Dell’s wholly-owned subsidiary, EMC Equity Assets LLC (“EMC”), under which VMware has agreed to purchase an additional $300 million (the “Purchase Amount”) of VMware Class A Common Stock (the “Shares”) that are currently held by EMC.
Pursuant to Supplement No. 2:
| • | The purchase price per Share (the “Purchase Price”) will be fixed at a 3.5% discount to a volume-weighted average stock price of VMware’s Class A Common Stock (“VWAP”) based on trading on the New York Stock Exchange during a reference period, which VWAP will be no more than 25% higher or 25% lower than the closing price per share on September 11, 2017. |
| • | At an initial closing expected to occur on September 14, 2017, which is subject to customary closing conditions, VMware will deliver the Purchase Amount to EMC in exchange for an initial delivery of Shares. |
| • | A final closing, which is subject to customary closing conditions, is expected to occur three business days following the end of the reference period. |
| • | At the final closing, EMC will deliver to VMware a number of Shares necessary to true-up the total number of Shares being purchased (the “True-Up Amount”). The True-Up Amount will be $300 million divided by the Purchase Price minus the number of Shares delivered at the initial closing. |
Supplement No. 2 and the terms of the transaction were approved by the Related Persons Transactions Committee of VMware’s Board of Directors. The $300 million Purchase Amount is being repurchased pursuant to VMware’s previously disclosed stock repurchase authorizations.
The foregoing descriptions of Supplement No. 2 and the Agreement do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by the full text of Supplement No. 2 and the Agreement, copies of which are filed as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and Exhibit 10.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by VMware with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 30, 2017, respectively, and each is incorporated by reference herein.

The information in this Item 2.02 and Exhibit 99.2 attached hereto shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any filing under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Exchange Act, regardless of any general incorporation language in such filing.
