Item 1.

Security and Issuer.

This statement on Schedule 13D relates to the shares of Class A Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Class A Common Stock”), of VMware, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”). The Issuer’s principal executive offices are located at 3401 Hillview Avenue, Palo Alto, California 94304.

 

Item 2.

Identity and Background.

This Schedule 13D is being filed by Dell Technologies Inc. (“Dell Technologies”), a Delaware corporation, EMC Corporation (“EMC”), a Massachusetts corporation, and Michael S. Dell (collectively, the “Reporting Persons”).

Dell Technologies is a global information technology company that delivers integrated IT solutions across customer segments. Dell Technologies is a holding company that conducts its business operations through its direct and indirect subsidiaries. Dell Technologies’ principal executive offices are located at One Dell Way, Round Rock, Texas 78682.

EMC is a company that manages a federation of businesses, each of which plays a role in the transformation of information technology. EMC’s principal executive offices are located at 176 South Street, Hopkinton, Massachusetts 01748.

Michael S. Dell is the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Dell Technologies. Mr. Dell beneficially owns voting securities of Dell Technologies representing a majority of the voting power of all voting securities of Dell Technologies and has the power to elect directors who control a majority of the total votes entitled to be cast on the Dell Technologies board of directors. Mr. Dell’s principal business address is c/o Dell Technologies Inc., One Dell Way, Round Rock, Texas 78682. Mr. Dell is a citizen of the United States.

EMC is the record holder of the following shares of common stock of the Issuer being reported on this Schedule 13D: (i) 43,025,308 shares of Class A Common Stock; and (ii) 300,000,000 shares of Class B Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Class B Common Stock”), convertible into an equal number of shares of Class A Common Stock at any time. EMC is indirectly wholly-owned by Dell Technologies through its directly and indirectly held wholly-owned subsidiaries, consisting of Denali Intermediate Inc., a Delaware corporation, and Dell Inc., a Delaware corporation. Dell Technologies, and each such subsidiary in the chain of subsidiaries through which Dell Technologies owns EMC (collectively, the “Dell Entities”), by reason of its ownership of the voting securities of the subsidiary below it in the chain, has the right to elect or appoint the members of the governing body of that subsidiary and, therefore, to direct the management and policies of that subsidiary. As a result, each Dell Entity shares, or has the right to acquire, voting and investment power over the Issuer’s common stock held of record by EMC.

The Reporting Persons have entered into a Joint Filing Agreement, a copy of which is filed with this Schedule 13D as Exhibit 1, pursuant to which the Reporting Persons have agreed to file this Schedule 13D jointly in accordance with the provisions of Rule 13d-1(k) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).

During the past five years, none of the Reporting Persons and, to their knowledge, none of the directors or executive officers listed on Annex A (i) has been convicted in any criminal proceeding (excluding traffic violations or similar misdemeanors) or (ii) has been a party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body of competent jurisdiction and as a result of such proceeding was or is subject to a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of, or prohibiting or mandating activities subject to, federal or state securities laws or finding any violation with respect to such laws.

Item 3.

Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

On September 7, 2016, Dell Technologies, formerly known as Denali Holding Inc., indirectly acquired EMC pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of October 12, 2015, as amended by the First Amendment to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of May 16, 2016, through the merger of Universal Acquisition Co., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Dell Technologies (“Merger Sub”), into EMC (the “Merger”). Among the EMC assets that were acquired in the Merger were (i) 43,025,308 shares of Class A Common Stock of the Issuer and (ii) 300,000,000 shares of Class B Common Stock of the Issuer convertible into an equal number of shares of Class A Common Stock at any time. As a result of the closing of the Merger, Dell Technologies and Mr. Dell became the indirect beneficial owners of 343,025,308 shares of the Issuer’s Class A Common Stock, which continue to be held of record and beneficially owned by EMC. Other than the consideration paid in the Merger to the former stockholders of EMC, no additional consideration was paid by Dell Technologies for the Issuer’s shares of common stock.

 

Item 4.

Purpose of Transaction.

As described in Item 3 above, Dell Technologies acquired EMC in the Merger on September 7, 2016. Dell Technologies acquired EMC because of its belief that (i) the combined company will be a leader in numerous high-growth areas of the information technology market, (ii) the combination will enable the combined company to address more of its customers’ needs and (iii) the transaction will strengthen the position of both EMC and Dell Technologies.

From time to time, but subject to the restrictions referred to below, the Reporting Persons may acquire additional shares of the Issuer’s Class A Common Stock or determine to dispose of all or a portion of the shares of common stock of the Issuer beneficially owned by them. The Reporting Persons intend to review their investment in the Issuer on a continuing basis and, upon further developments, including the ongoing evaluation of the Issuer’s business, financial condition, operating results and prospects, the business and prospects of Dell Technologies and EMC, other investment and business opportunities available to the Reporting Persons, general stock market and economic conditions, and tax considerations, may change their investment in the Issuer.

The ability of Dell Technologies to acquire additional shares of common stock of the Issuer is restricted. Dell Technologies has agreed with EMC that, from the completion of the Merger through the two-year anniversary of the completion of the Merger, Dell Technologies and its subsidiaries (other than the Issuer and its subsidiaries) will not purchase or otherwise acquire any shares of common stock of the Issuer if such acquisition would cause the common stock of the Issuer to no longer be publicly traded on a U.S. securities exchange or the Issuer will no longer be required to file reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Exchange Act, in each case unless such acquisition of the Issuer’s common stock is required in order for the Issuer to continue to be a member of the affiliated group of corporations filing a consolidated tax return with Dell Technologies for the purposes of Section 1502 of the Internal Revenue Code and the regulations thereunder.

Except as noted above, the Reporting Persons have no current plans or proposals which relate to, or would result in, any of the matters set forth in sub-items (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D.

 

Item 5.

Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

As of September 7, 2016, the Reporting Persons are the beneficial owners of an aggregate of 343,025,308 shares of Class A Common Stock of the Issuer, consisting of (i) 43,025,308 shares of Class A Common Stock and (ii) 300,000,000 shares of Class B Common Stock that are convertible into an equal number of shares of Class A Common Stock at any time. The 343,025,308 shares of Class A Common Stock represent approximately 80.8% of the shares of Class A Common Stock. 3/

 

3/

Based on 424,408,248 shares of common stock issued and outstanding as of July 31, 2016, as reported in the Issuer’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2016, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 8, 2016. The percentage of Class A Common Stock reported assumes the conversion of the Class B Common Stock into shares of Class A Common Stock.
