"Person" shall mean a natural person, partnership, corporation, limited liability company, business trust, joint stock company, trust, unincorporated association, joint venture or other entity or organization.

"Subject Securities" shall mean, collectively, shares of VMware Common Stock and New VMware Common Stock.

For purposes of this Agreement, "capital stock" shall include interests in a partnership or limited liability company.

2. Agreement to Retain Subject Securities.

2.1 Transfer and Encumbrance of Subject Securities. Other than a Permitted Transfer, from the date of this Agreement until the Expiration Time, no MSD Stockholder shall, with respect to any Subject Securities Beneficially Owned by such MSD Stockholder, (a) Transfer any such Subject Securities, or (b) deposit any such Subject Securities into a voting trust or enter into a voting agreement or arrangement with respect to such Subject Securities or grant any proxy (except as otherwise provided herein) or power of attorney with respect thereto.

7. Notice of Certain Events. The MSD Stockholders shall notify Broadcom in writing as promptly as reasonably practicable of any fact, event or circumstance that would cause, or reasonably be expected to cause or constitute, a breach in any material respect of the representations and warranties of the MSD Stockholders under this Agreement; provided, however, that the delivery of any notice pursuant to this Section 7 shall not limit or otherwise affect the remedies available to any Party.

5

8. No Solicitation; No Acquisitions of Broadcom Common Stock. Each MSD Stockholder agrees that neither he nor it nor any of his or its Affiliates, trustees or Representatives acting on his or its behalf or at his or its direction shall, directly or indirectly, take any action that would violate Section 6.3 of the Merger Agreement if such MSD Stockholder were deemed VMware for purposes of Section 6.3 of the Merger Agreement, it being understood that each MSD Stockholder shall be entitled to take any action that would be permitted by Section 6.3 of the Merger Agreement. Each MSD Stockholder agrees that, without the prior written consent of Broadcom, such MSD Stockholder will not purchase or acquire, directly or indirectly, Beneficial Ownership of any shares of Broadcom Common Stock.

9. Distribution Taxes. Effective as of the Closing Effective Time, each of the MSD Stockholders, for itself and for each of its Affiliates, hereby generally, irrevocably, unconditionally and completely releases and forever discharges Broadcom, Dell Technologies, VMware, Broadcom's Affiliates (including, after the Closing, VMware), Dell Technologies' Affiliates, VMware's Affiliates and their respective officers, agents, directors, supervisors, insurers, trustees, partners, attorneys, employees, administrators, executors, predecessors, successors and assigns (hereinafter, the "Released Parties") from any and all Released Claims. Each of the MSD Stockholders shall not, in any federal court, state court, arbitration, regulatory agency, or other tribunal or forum commence, file, initiate, institute, cause to be instituted, assist in instituting, or permit to be instituted on their, his, her, or its behalf, or on behalf of any other Person, any Released Claims against any Released Party or challenging the validity of the release set forth in this Section 9.

For the purposes of this Agreement, (a) "Claims" means any actual or potential, charges, complaints, claims, counterclaims, duties, actions, causes of action in law or in equity, suits, liens, liabilities, debts due, sums of money, demands, obligations, accountings, damages, punitive damages, losses, costs or expenses, attorneys' fees of any nature whatsoever and liabilities of any kind or nature whatsoever and (b) "Released Claims" means all Claims, known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, whether arising under state, federal or other Law, or based on common law, statutory law, regulations or otherwise, that a MSD Stockholder or any of its Affiliates at any time had or claimed to have or may have or claim to have with respect to Distribution Taxes (as defined in the Tax Matters Agreement) resulting from the acquisition of equity securities of VMware by Broadcom pursuant to the Merger Agreement.

With respect to any and all Released Claims, each of the MSD Stockholders expressly waives the provisions, rights, and benefits of California Civil Code § 1542 and any provisions, rights, and benefits conferred by any law of any state or territory of the United States or principle of common law which is similar, comparable, or equivalent to California Civil Code § 1542, which provides:

A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS THAT THE CREDITOR OR RELEASING PARTY DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE AND THAT, IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER, WOULD HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR OR RELEASED PARTY.

6

The MSD Stockholders may after the date of this Agreement discover facts in addition to or different from those that any of them now knows or knows as of the date of this Agreement or believes to be true with respect to the subject matter of the Released Claims; however, each of the MSD Stockholders fully, finally, and forever settles and releases any and all Released Claims released hereunder, known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, contingent or non-contingent, whether or not concealed or hidden, without regard to the subsequent discovery or existence of such different or additional facts. Broadcom acknowledges that the foregoing waiver was separately bargained for and a key element of this Agreement of which this release is a part.

10. Waiver of Certain Actions. Each MSD Stockholder hereby agrees not to commence or participate in, and to take all actions necessary to opt out of any class in any class action with respect to, any Action, derivative or otherwise, against Broadcom, VMware or any of their respective Subsidiaries or successors (a) challenging the validity of, or seeking to enjoin or delay the operation of, any provision of this Agreement or the Merger Agreement (including any claim seeking to enjoin or delay the Closing) or (b) to the fullest extent permitted under Law, alleging a breach of any duty of the Board of Directors of VMware or Broadcom in connection with the Merger Agreement, this Agreement or the transactions contemplated thereby or hereby; provided, that this Section 10 shall not be deemed a waiver of any rights of any MSD Stockholder or any Permitted Transferee thereof for any breach of this Agreement or the Merger Agreement.

11. HSR Act. The MSD Stockholders shall use reasonable best efforts to determine, as promptly as practicable after the date hereof, whether a filing of a Notification and Report Form pursuant to the HSR Act by any of the MSD Stockholders is required in connection with the Transactions. Solely to the extent that the MSD Stockholders determine that such a filing is required, the MSD Stockholders agree to make such filing as promptly as practicable following the determination thereof. Broadcom agrees to make an appropriate responsive filing of a Notification and Report Form pursuant to the HSR Act with respect to any notice letter sent by any of the MSD Stockholders under 16 C.F.R. § 803.5(a)(1) as promptly as practicable, and in any event not later than the date prescribed by 16 C.F.R. § 803.5(b)(2), and each Party agrees to use reasonable best efforts to supply as promptly as reasonably practicable and advisable any additional information and documentary materials that may be requested pursuant to the HSR Act; provided, however, that materials required to be provided pursuant to the foregoing may be redacted (a) to remove references concerning the valuation of Broadcom, VMware or any of their respective Subsidiaries, (b) as necessary to comply with contractual arrangements existing as of the date hereof and (c) as necessary to address reasonable privilege or confidentiality concerns; provided, further, that each Party may, as each deems advisable and necessary, reasonably designate any competitively sensitive material provided to the other under this Section 11 as "Antitrust Counsel Only Material."

Each Party shall use commercially reasonable efforts to execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, such additional instruments, and shall take such further actions, as the other Party may reasonably request for the purpose of carrying out and furthering the intent of this Agreement.

13. Miscellaneous.

13.1 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is determined to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the remaining provisions of this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect. In the event of any such determination, the Parties agree to negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement to fulfill as closely as possible the original intent and purpose of this Agreement.

13.2 Successors and Assigns. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations of the Parties hereunder shall be assigned by any of the Parties (whether by operation of law or otherwise) without the prior written consent of the other Parties, and any attempt to make any such assignment without such consent shall be null and void; provided, that, for the avoidance of doubt, Broadcom's consent shall not be required for any Permitted Transfer. Subject to the preceding sentence, this Agreement will be binding upon, inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. This Section 13.2 shall not be deemed to prevent Broadcom from engaging in any merger, consolidation, reorganization or other business combination transaction.

13.3 Amendments and Modifications. No provision of this Agreement may be amended or modified unless such amendment or modification is in writing and signed by (a) Broadcom and (b) the MSD Stockholders. No failure or delay by any Party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by applicable Law.

13.5 Governing Law; Jurisdiction.

(a) This Agreement, and all claims, causes of action (whether in contract, tort or statute) or other matters that may directly or indirectly result from, arise out of, be in connection with or relating to this Agreement, or the execution or performance of this Agreement (the "Relevant Matters") shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the Laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to conflicts of laws principles that would result in the application of the Law of any other state.

(b) Each of the Parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, or, if (and only if) such court finds it lacks jurisdiction, the Federal court of the United States of America sitting in Delaware, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to any Relevant Matter or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment relating thereto, and each of the Parties hereby irrevocably and unconditionally (i) agrees not to commence any such action or proceeding, except in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, or, if (and only if) such court finds it lacks jurisdiction, the Federal court of the United States of America sitting in Delaware, and any appellate court from any thereof;

9

(ii) agrees that any claim in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, or, if (and only if) such court finds it lacks jurisdiction, the Federal court of the United States of America sitting in Delaware, and any appellate court from any thereof; (iii) waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any such action or proceeding in such courts; and (iv) waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in such courts. Each of the Parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by applicable Law. Each Party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process inside or outside the territorial jurisdiction of the courts referred to in this Section 13.5 in the manner provided for notices in Section 13.4. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any Party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by applicable Law.

13.6 Enforcement. The Parties agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms on a timely basis or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that the Parties shall be entitled to an injunction or other equitable relief (without the requirement of posting a bond or other security) to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in any Chosen Court, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity.

13.7 No Third Party Beneficiaries. Nothing in this Agreement shall confer any rights upon any Person other than the Parties and each such Party's respective heirs, successors and permitted assigns, except as otherwise set forth herein, except, from and after the Closing Date, for the provisions of Section 9 of this Agreement and the rights of the Released Parties set forth therein.

13.8 WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE RELEVANT MATTERS. EACH PARTY CERTIFIES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT (A) NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE SUCH WAIVERS, (B) IT UNDERSTANDS AND HAS CONSIDERED THE IMPLICATIONS OF SUCH WAIVERS, (C) IT MAKES SUCH WAIVERS VOLUNTARILY AND (D) IT HAS BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 13.8.

13.9 Entire Agreement.

10

13.10 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be considered one and the same agreement and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each of the Parties and delivered to each other Party (including by means of electronic delivery), it being understood that the Parties need not sign the same counterpart. Signatures to this Agreement transmitted by facsimile transmission, by electronic mail in "portable document format" (".pdf") form, or by any other electronic means intended to preserve the original graphic and pictorial appearance of a document, will have the same effect as physical delivery of the paper document bearing the original signature.

13.11 No Agreement Until Executed. Irrespective of negotiations among the Parties or the exchanging of drafts of this Agreement, this Agreement shall not constitute or be deemed to evidence a contract, agreement, arrangement or understanding between the parties hereto unless and until (a) the Merger Agreement is executed and delivered by all parties thereto, and (b) this Agreement is executed and delivered by the Parties.

13.12 Expenses. All costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement shall be paid by the Party incurring such cost or expense, whether or not the Transactions are consummated.

13.13 Action in MSD Stockholder Capacity Only. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (a) no Person executing this Agreement (or designee or Representative of such Person) who has been, is or becomes during the term of this Agreement a director or officer of VMware shall be deemed to make any agreement or understanding in this Agreement in such Person's capacity as a director of VMware and (b) the Parties acknowledge and agree that this Agreement is entered into by the MSD Stockholders solely in their capacity as the Beneficial Owners of shares of VMware Common Stock and nothing in this Agreement shall restrict in any respect any actions taken by the MSD Stockholders or their designees or Representatives who are a director of VMware solely in his or her capacity as a director of VMware. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section 13.13 shall in any way modify, alter or amend any of the terms of the Merger Agreement.

13.14 Documentation and Information. Except (a) for communications consistent with the final form of joint press release announcing the Merger Agreement and the investor presentation given to investors on the day of announcement of the Merger Agreement or (b) as may be required by applicable Law or stock exchange rule or regulation (provided that reasonable notice of any such disclosure will be provided to Broadcom), no MSD Stockholder shall make any public announcement regarding this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby without the prior written consent of Broadcom. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Broadcom consents to each MSD Stockholder publishing and disclosing in all documents and schedules filed with the SEC, and any press release or other disclosure document that such MSD Stockholder reasonably determines to be necessary in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the existence and terms of this Agreement (including filing a copy of this Agreement) (provided, that such MSD Stockholder shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide Broadcom with advance notice of any such disclosure and shall consider in good faith to the extent practicable the reasonable comments of Broadcom with respect to any such disclosure).

13.15 Obligation to Update Schedule A. The MSD Stockholders agree that in connection with any acquisitions or Transfers (to the extent permitted) of Subject Securities by any MSD Stockholder, the MSD Stockholders will, as promptly as practicable following the completion of such acquisition or Transfer, notify Broadcom in writing of such acquisition or Transfer and the Parties will update Schedule A to reflect the effect of such acquisition or Transfer.

11

13.17 Non-Recourse. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Agreement may only be enforced against, and any claim or cause of action based upon, arising out of, or to the extent related to this Agreement may only be brought against the person and entities that are expressly named as Parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns (and in the case of any MSD Stockholder, any Permitted Transferee to whom Subject Securities are transferred). Except as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, no past, present or future director, officer, manager, employee, incorporator, member, partner, stockholder, equityholder, controlling person, Affiliate, agent, attorney, advisor or representative of any Party hereto, and no past, present or future director, officer, manager, employee, incorporator, member, partner, stockholder, equityholder, controlling person, Affiliate, agent, attorney, advisor or representative of any of the foregoing (each, a "Non-Recourse Party") shall have any liability for any obligations or liabilities of any Party hereto under this Agreement (whether in tort, contract or otherwise). The Parties acknowledge and agree that the Non-Recourse Parties are third party beneficiaries of this Section 13.17, each of whom may enforce the provisions thereof.
