Item 5.07

Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.

As previously announced, a special meeting (the “Special Meeting”) of stockholders of Dell Technologies Inc. (the “Company”) was held on December 11, 2018, at which the Company’s stockholders voted on the proposals set forth below relating to the Company’s previously announced transaction (the “Class V transaction”) in which holders of shares of Class V common stock of the Company may elect to receive in exchange for each share of Class V common stock either (i) such number of shares of Class C common stock of the Company as determined by the application of the exchange ratio, which will be between 1.5043 and 1.8130, or (ii) $120.00 in cash, without interest, subject to a cap of $14 billion on the aggregate amount of cash consideration. The terms of the Class V transaction and the related proposals are described in more detail in the Company’s definitive proxy statement/prospectus, dated October 19, 2018, which forms a part of a registration statement on Form S-4, as amended (File No. 333-226618), as supplemented by a supplement thereto, dated November 26, 2018, in each case filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

As of the close of business on October 18, 2018, the record date for the Special Meeting (the “Record Date”), an aggregate of 768,371,322 shares of the Company’s common stock were outstanding and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting, consisting of 409,538,423 shares of Class A common stock, 136,986,858 shares of Class B common stock, 22,489,450 shares of Class C common stock and 199,356,591 shares of Class V common stock.

The remaining 0.1%, or approximately 33,524 outstanding shares of Class V common stock, were held by our directors and executive officers and are excluded from the results for Proposal 1 and Proposal 2 set forth below with respect to the votes of holders of the outstanding shares of Class V common stock, voting as a separate class.
