This Amendment No. 9 amends and supplements the Statement on Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 8, 2013, as amended by Amendment No. 1 filed on February 12, 2013, Amendment No. 2 filed on March 5, 2013, Amendment No. 3 filed on March 15, 2013, Amendment No. 4 filed on May 10, 2013, Amendment No. 5 filed on May 13, 2013, Amendment No. 6 filed on May 16, 2013, Amendment No. 7 filed on June 18, 2013, and Amendment No. 8 filed on July 2, 2013 (the “Schedule 13D”), which relates to the common stock, par value $0.01 (the “Securities”) of Dell Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer”). Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined have the meaning assigned to such terms in the Schedule 13D. All items or responses not described herein remain as previously reported in the Schedule 13D.

Item 3.

Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration

Item 3 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

The respective investment advisory clients of Southeastern used approximately $1,044,789,511.00 in the aggregate to purchase the Securities reported in the Schedule 13D. All assets used to purchase Securities were assets of these respective clients and none were assets of Southeastern. In addition, none of the proceeds used to purchase the Securities were provided through borrowings of any nature.

Item 4.

Purpose of Transaction

Item 4 is hereby amended and supplemented by adding the following immediately after the fourteenth paragraph thereof:

On July 11, 2013, Carl C. Icahn appeared on Bloomberg TV at 4:00 pm, New York City time. Mr. Icahn discussed the Issuer and, among other things, stated that Mr. Icahn and his affiliates and Southeastern would be coming out with a revised proposal that would add a fraction of a warrant with a $20 per share strike price to the existing proposal. Mr. Icahn indicated that the precise terms of the warrants are still under discussion and that additional details regarding the revised proposal would be forthcoming shortly.

Item 5.

Interest in Securities of the Issuer

Item 5 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as follows:

(a) The aggregate number and percentage of Securities to which this Schedule 13D relates is 69,835,628 shares of the common stock of the Issuer, constituting approximately 4.0% of the 1,756,073,637 shares outstanding. This amount excludes 6,476,800 European style options that are only exercisable on the expiration date of the options and will not be exercisable within the next 60 days. The calculation of the foregoing percentage is based on the number of shares disclosed as outstanding as of June 6, 2013 by the Issuer in its Form 10-Q, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on June 12, 2013.

**Does not include 352,500 shares held by one non-discretionary account over which the filing parties have neither voting nor dispositive authority. Beneficial ownership is expressly disclaimed with respect to these shares.

Southeastern has agreed to act in concert with High River Limited Partnership, Hopper Investments LLC, Barberry Corp., Icahn Partners Master Fund LP, Icahn Partners Master Fund II LP, Icahn Partners Master Fund III LP, Icahn Offshore LP, Icahn Partners LP, Icahn Onshore LP, Icahn Capital LP, IPH GP LLC, Icahn Enterprises Holdings L.P., Icahn Enterprises G.P. Inc., Beckton Corp. and Carl C. Icahn (collectively, the “Icahn Parties”) solely for the purposes of promoting the transactions and proposals contained in the Stock Purchase Agreement, the Side Letter, and the May 9 Letter, including pursuing a superior proposal in connection with the proposed management buyout transaction, urging shareholders to vote against the proposed management buyout transaction, the joint solicitation for proxies for the 2013 Annual Meeting and the joint solicitation of proxies for the Special Meeting. Based on the foregoing, the Icahn Parties and Southeastern have formed a “group” within the meaning of Section 13(d)(3) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and may be deemed to beneficially own 222,314,278 Securities, constituting approximately 12.7% of the 1,756,073,637 Securities outstanding. However, Southeastern expressly disclaims beneficial ownership of the 152,478,650 Securities beneficially owned by the Icahn Parties and their related affiliates. Southeastern, in accordance with its fiduciary duties, also expressly retains the sole voting and investment power of the Securities it beneficially owns. The Icahn Parties and their related affiliates have filed a separate Schedule 13D with respect to their interests.

(b) Southeastern generally has the sole power to dispose of or to direct the disposition of the Securities held for discretionary accounts of its investment clients, and may be granted the sole power to vote or direct the vote of such Securities; such powers may be retained by or shared with the respective clients for shared or non-discretionary accounts. Shares held by any Series of Longleaf Partners Funds Trust are reported in the “shared” category.

(d) The investment advisory clients of Southeastern have the sole right to receive and, subject to notice, to withdraw the proceeds from the sale of the Securities, and the sole power to direct the receipt of dividends from any of the Securities held for their respective accounts. Such clients may also terminate the investment advisory agreements without penalty upon appropriate notice. Southeastern does not have an economic interest in any of the Securities reported herein.

(e) Not applicable.
