In connection with the Issuers acquisition of Dell Inc., Denali Co-Invest, SLP IV and SLTI IV, along with Silver Lake Partners III, L.P. (SLP III) and Silver Lake Technology Investors III, L.P. (SLTI III and together with SLP III, Silver Lake III) acquired an aggregate of 97,122,164 shares of Series B common stock of the Issuer for an aggregate price of $1,335,429,751 in October 2013. Such shares, when combined with the 913,951 shares issued to Denali Co-Invest and an aggregate 145,704 shares issued to SLP III and SLTI III as a result of a contemporaneous rollover and a recapitalization of the Issuers common stock, respectively, in the acquisition of Dell Inc., resulted in 98,181,818 shares of Series B common stock held by affiliates of SLG. In connection with the Issuers acquisition of EMC Corporation in September 2016, each share of Series B common stock was converted into one share of Class B Common Stock and the above entities purchased an aggregate of 38,805,040 additional shares of Class B Common Stock for an aggregate purchase price of $1,067,138,600, or $27.50 per share. On February 14, 2019, Silver Lake III sold an aggregate of 21,963,541 shares of Class B Common Stock to SLP V and SLTI V, with SLP V and SLTI V purchasing 21,697,586 and 265,955 shares of Class B Common Stock, respectively, in each case, at a price determined by reference to a volume weighted average price per share over a reference period of 15 trading days beginning on January 11, 2019, equal to $45.53 per share. The 39,047,589 remaining shares of Class B Common Stock originally held by Silver Lake III and not sold to SLP V or SLTI V were contributed to SPV-2, which currently holds such remaining shares. The source of funds for all such purchases were from general funds available to such purchasers, including capital contributions from their respective investors, and in the case of shares purchased by SLP V, for cash management purposes in advance of a capital call, short-term borrowings under an existing revolving credit facility, which amounts are expected to be repaid upon the funding of capital contributions from its investors.

Item 4.

Purpose of Transaction

The information set forth in or incorporated by reference in Item 3 and Item 6 of this Schedule 13D is incorporated by reference in its entirety into this Item 4.    

Each of the Reporting Persons acquired the Class B Common Stock for long-term investment purposes and the attendant rights with respect to the Issuer, further described below in Item 6. As previously stated publicly by a Managing Director of Silver Lake, the fund-to-fund transaction described herein allows Silver Lake to reaffirm its commitment to and extend its investment horizon in the Issuer.

Mr. Egon Durban and Mr. Simon Patterson, each a Managing Director of Silver Lake, currently serve as members of the board of directors of the Issuer.

Although no Reporting Person currently has any specific plan or proposal to sell the Class B Common Stock (or the Class C Common Stock receivable upon conversion) and/or otherwise increase or decrease their investment in the Issuer, other than as described in Item 6 below, each Reporting Person, consistent with its investment purpose and subject to the agreements described in Item 6 below, at any time and from time to time may acquire additional securities of the Issuer or dispose of any or all of its securities of the Issuer (including, without limitation, distributing some or all of such shares of Class B Common Stock (or the Class C Common Stock receivable upon conversion) to such Reporting Persons members, partners, stockholders or beneficiaries, as applicable and in accordance with the agreements described in Item 6 below), depending upon an ongoing evaluation of its investment in the Issuer, the price and availability of the Issuers securities, the Issuers business and the Issuers prospects, applicable legal restrictions, prevailing market conditions, other investment opportunities, tax considerations, liquidity requirements of such Reporting Person and/or other investment considerations. Subject to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement (described in Item 6 below), the SLP stockholders (as defined below) may request or demand a registration statement be filed by the Issuer and be made available and effective so that they may, if they later decide, deliver to the Issuer take-down notices in connection therewith or otherwise to sell shares of Class C Common Stock utilizing such registration statement.

Each Reporting Person, solely in its capacity as a stockholder of the Issuer, may engage in communications with one or more other stockholders or other securityholders of the Issuer, one or more officers of the Issuer and/or one or more members of the board of directors of the Issuer and/or one or more representatives of the Issuer regarding the Issuer. Each of the Reporting Persons, in its capacity as a stockholder of the Issuer, may discuss ideas that, if effected, may relate to or result in any of the matters listed in Items 4(a) through (j) of Schedule 13D.

Other than as described above, none of the Reporting Persons nor, to the knowledge of each Reporting Person, any individuals listed in Annex A attached hereto, currently has any plans or proposals that relate to, or would result in, any of the matters listed in Items 4(a) through (j) of Schedule 13D, although the Reporting Persons may, at any time and from time to time, review or reconsider their position, change their purpose and/or formulate plans or proposals with respect thereto. As a result of these activities, one or more of the Reporting Persons may suggest or take a position with respect to potential changes in the operations, management, or capital structure of the Issuer as a means of enhancing stockholder value. Such suggestions or positions may include one or more plans or proposals that relate to or would result in any of the actions described in Items 4(a) through (j) of Schedule 13D.

(a) (b) The Reporting Persons may be deemed to beneficially own an aggregate of 136,986,858 shares of the Issuers Class B Common Stock, which constitutes approximately 19.1% of the total outstanding common stock of the Issuer, based on 718,434,605 shares of common stock outstanding in total as of December 28, 2018, as set forth in the Issuers Current Report on Form 8-K, filed on December 28, 2018.

Subject to the terms of the Issuers amended and restated certificate of incorporation, each holder of record of: (1) Class A Common Stock is entitled to 10 votes per share of Class A Common Stock; (2) Class B Common Stock is entitled to 10 votes per share of Class B Common Stock; (3) Class C Common Stock is entitled to one vote per share of Class C Common Stock; and (4) Class D Common Stock is not entitled to any vote on any matter except to the extent required by provisions of Delaware law (in which case such holder is entitled to one vote per share of Class D Common Stock), in the case of each of (1) through (4), which is outstanding in such holders name on the books of the Company and which is entitled to vote. The board of directors of the Issuer has a class consisting of the Group I Directors (as defined in the Issuers Fifth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation) and, beginning with the second annual meeting following the closing of the Issuers repurchase of the Class V Common Stock, a class consisting of the Group IV Director (as defined in the Issuers Fifth Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation). The holders of shares of all series of common stock outstanding will vote as one class with respect to the election of all Group I Directors and, beginning with the second annual meeting of stockholders of the Company following the closing of the Issuers repurchase of the Class V Common Stock, and annually thereafter, the holders of Class C Common Stock will vote separately as a series with respect to the election of the Group IV Director. With respect to all other matters to be voted on by stockholders of the Company, the holders of shares of all series of common stock outstanding will vote as one class. As a result of the above, the 136,986,858 shares of Class B Common Stock beneficially owned in the aggregate by the Reporting Persons is entitled to approximately 24.3% of the combined voting power of the common stock of the Issuer, based on 718,434,605 shares of common stock outstanding in total, including 171,909,324 shares of Class C Common Stock outstanding, as of December 28, 2018, as set forth in the Issuers Current Report on Form 8-K, filed on December 28, 2018.

The Reporting Persons may be deemed to beneficially own an aggregate of 136,986,858 shares of the Issuers Class C Common Stock, based on 136,986,858 shares of the Issuers Class B Common Stock, which are convertible into shares of Class C Common Stock on a one-for-one basis at any time at the holders election, representing approximately 44.3% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Issuers Class C Common Stock calculated on the basis of Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act. The percentages of beneficial ownership in this Schedule 13D are based on 171,909,324 shares of Class C Common Stock of the Issuer outstanding as of December 28, 2018, as set forth in the Issuers Current Report on Form 8-K, filed on December 28, 2018, and assuming conversion of all outstanding shares of Class B Common Stock which may be deemed to be beneficially owned by the Reporting Persons into shares of Class C Common Stock.

Information with respect to the beneficial ownership of Class C Common Stock by the individuals listed in Annex A is set forth in Annex A attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference in response to this Item 5.

The references to and description of the Issuers amended and restated certificate of incorporation set forth above is not intended to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such certificate, which is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to the Issuers Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 28, 2018.

(c) Except as set forth in Item 3 and Annex A of this Schedule 13D, none of the Reporting Persons, or, to the best knowledge of the Reporting Persons, any other person listed in Annex A, have effected any transaction in Class C Common Stock during the past 60 days.

(d) Not applicable.

(e) As described in the Explanatory Note, certain entities previously reporting beneficial ownership of shares of Class C Common Stock (as a result of ownership of Class B Common Stock) on a Schedule 13G, filed on February 14, 2019 are no longer beneficial owners of Class C Common Stock as of February 14, 2019. As a result, this filing represents an exit filing for each of Silver Lake Partners III, L.P. and Silver Lake Technology Investors III, L.P., as the interests in the Issuer previously held through Silver Lake Partners III, L.P. and Silver Lake Technology Investors III, L.P. were either sold to SLP V and SLTI V, or contributed and held by SPV-2.

Each of the MD stockholders and the SLP stockholders have the right to nominate a number of individuals for election as directors of the Issuer which is equal to (1) in the case where the MD stockholders and SLP stockholders beneficially own more than 70% of the total voting power for the regular election of directors of the Issuer, the percentage of (x) the total voting power for the regular election of directors beneficially owned by the MD stockholders or by the SLP stockholders, as the case may be, multiplied by (y) the number of directors then on the board of directors (and any vacancy thereon) who are not members of the audit committee, or (2) in the case where the MD stockholders and SLP stockholders beneficially own 70% or less of the total voting power for the regular election of directors of the Issuer, the percentage of (x) the total voting power for the regular election of directors beneficially owned by the MD stockholders or by the SLP stockholders, as the case may be, multiplied by (y) the number of directors then on the board of directors (and any vacancy thereon), in each case rounded up to the nearest whole number. Further, so long as the SLP stockholders beneficially own at least 5% of the total voting power for the regular election of directors of the Issuer, the SLP stockholders are entitled to nominate at least one individual for election to the board of directors as a Group I Director.

If any person nominated by the MD stockholders or the SLP stockholders ceases to serve on the board of directors as a Group I Director for any reason (except as a result of a reduction in such stockholders right to nominate Group I Directors pursuant to, with respect to the SLP stockholders, the SLP Stockholders Agreement and, with respect to the MD stockholders, the MD Stockholders Agreement (as defined below)), then the stockholder who nominated such Group I Director is entitled to nominate a replacement so long as the stockholder is entitled to nominate at least one Group I Director to the board of directors at such time.

So long as the MD stockholders, together with MSDC Denali Investors, L.P. and MSDC Denali EIV, LLC (together with their permitted transferees, the MSD Partners stockholders), in the aggregate beneficially own common stock representing a majority of the total voting power of the Issuers outstanding common stock, the SLP stockholders will use their reasonable best efforts to expand the size of the board of directors to up to 21 directors at the request of the MD stockholders.

Support Obligations

Chairman and CEO Approval Right

For so long as the SLP stockholders beneficially own at least 5% of the Issuers outstanding common stock (without regard to voting power), if Mr. Dell experiences a Disabling Event (as defined in the SLP Stockholders Agreement), the SLP stockholders shall have the right to approve the appointment of a new Chairman of the Board and/or Chief Executive Officer of the Issuer.

Transfer Restrictions

The SLP stockholders generally are subject to provisions that, with specific exceptions, restrict their sale or other transfer of outstanding shares of any class of the Issuers common stock (including the Class B Common Stock and Class C Common Stock) or any equity or debt securities convertible or exercisable for shares of the Issuers common stock (such securities, together with the Issuers common stock, the DTI securities) until June 27, 2019, the 181^st day following the consummation of the Issuers repurchase of the Class V Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Issuer (the Class V Common Stock).

Tag-along Rights

If the MD stockholders propose to (1) transfer all or a portion of their DTI securities equal to 10% or more of the then-outstanding common stock to any person (other than their permitted transferees) or (2) enter into a sale or business combination transaction with any person not affiliated with the MD stockholders or the Issuer involving the transfer of a majority of the fully-diluted common stock or of the aggregate voting power of the common stock or substantially all of the assets of the Issuer and its subsidiaries (subject to specified qualifications and exceptions), the SLP stockholders may exercise tag-along rights to sell their DTI securities on the same terms, conditions and price as the MD stockholders, subject to certain limitations. These tag-along rights will expire on the earlier to occur of (a) June 28, 2020 and (b) such date as the MD stockholders no longer beneficially own common stock of the Issuer representing a majority of the common stock of the Issuer beneficially owned by them immediately following the closing of Dell Inc.s going-private transaction on October 29, 2013.

Consent Right

For so long as the SLP stockholders own any DTI securities, they have a consent right over any amendment to or waiver by the Issuer under the MSD Partners Stockholders Agreement (as defined below). This consent right generally excludes amendments to or waivers of provisions of the MSD Partners Stockholders Agreement relating to transfer restrictions.

Renunciation of Corporate Opportunities and Indemnification

The Registration Rights Agreement also contains certain customary cross-indemnification and expense provisions. The Registration Rights Agreement will terminate with respect to all parties with the prior written consent of the MD stockholders and the SLP stockholders or, with respect to any individual stockholder party, at such time as such party does not beneficially own any registrable shares subject to the Registration Rights Agreement.
