Introduction

INVESTMENT BANKING DIVISION

Goldman Sachs would like to thank the Board of Directors for the opportunity to share our preliminary observations on several key questions regarding Denali today:

1 What is the public market’s perception of Denali and why does Denali trade the way that it does?

— Denali’s share price performance and public trading multiples have lagged those of its peers, likely due to a range of factors, including lower expectations of growth, EUC’s significant contribution to Denali and the market’s weak outlook for the PC sector, recent company underperformance, Denali’s significant cash balances and a broad disconnect from valuation fundamentals as a result of industry disruption

2 How do management’s financial projections compare in the context of public market perceptions?

— Wall Street research analyst estimates suggest a fundamentally lower outlook for growth compared to management’s financial projections

3 What are the standalone value implications of management’s financial projections?

— Illustrative standalone valuation analyses result in Denali value outcomes that are significantly higher than the current share price

4 What are some of the potential alternatives that are available to Denali today and what are the key financial, strategic, operational and transactional issues to consider?

— There are a range of alternatives that Denali could potentially consider, including, but not limited to, pursuing the current strategy, a take-private LBO, some form of a company separation via spin-off / spin-merger or return of capital initiatives

— While illustrative financial analyses of these alternatives may result in value outcomes significantly higher than the current share price as a result of assumptions such as purchase price, pro forma financials and pro forma trading multiples, there are significant issues to consider around the execution, complexity, costs and timing of pursuing these alternatives

In reaching our preliminary observations, we have relied upon management’s 9/21 Case financial projections (“management’s financial projections” or the “9/21 Case financial projections”) and have reviewed the July 2012 Board Strategy Plan financial projections and other documents provided by management in the data room Additional diligence and management discussions and input would be required in order to further develop and refine our preliminary observations and analyses

1 Public Market Perspectives on Denali

INVESTMENT BANKING DIVISION

Cont’d

Denali’s current valuation is likely attributable to a range of potential factors, including, but not limited to:

— Expectations of lower Denali growth – both revenue and EPS

— EUC segment financials overwhelming the financial contribution of other segments (EUC represents ~50% of revenues)

— Market outlook for the PC industry

— Overhang from recent stock and operating underperformance

Another reason for Denali’s current valuation could be because investors are not be attributing full value to its significant cash balances

— Cash is primarily offshore and, absent changes in tax regulations, would require tax payment on repatriation

— Some investors may have the view that the cash will be used for acquisitions that have limited near-term P&L benefit

Companies at the center of industries undergoing major structural changes often suffer from depressed valuations that seem “disconnected” from fundamentals

— Many investors believe that the shift to mobile computing represents a significant disruption to the traditional desktop and “notebook” ecosystem

— Investors are often reluctant to fight strong “secular headwinds” even when values become attractive in absolute and relative terms; as a result, valuations can remain depressed for protracted periods

An illustrative present value of future share price analysis results in share prices similar to the current share price assuming Denali trades at a consistent multiple to today. However, peer PEG multiples would suggest that Denali should trade at higher multiples (thus implying higher prices) given the EPS growth profile of management’s financial projections

Goldman Sachs B Illustrative Spin-Off Analysis INVESTMENT BANKING DIVISION

(US$ in millions, except per share amounts)

In order to evaluate the merits of a potential separation, a wide range of factors should be taken into consideration

— Potential benefits may include, but are not limited to, “unlocking” embedded shareholder value through potential multiple re-rating of the

Company, enhanced strategic, financial and operational flexibility; additionally, separated companies could become M&A candidates

— Potential issues for consideration include, but are not limited to, the nature, magnitude and impact of potential operating dissynergies (e.g. cross-selling, sales organization leverage, materials sourcing, share corporate costs, etc.), potential customer, supplier and employee reaction, and the timing and complexity of execution of such a separation

For illustrative purposes, we consider, based on management guidance, a separation into a “Client” business and an “Enterprise” business

— Client (FY2014 revenues / EBITDA: $36.7 billion / $1.8 billion): Consists of EUC, the consumer business of Services’ Support &

Deployment (~10% of Services revenue) and the consumer-related portion of S&P (~75% of S&P revenue)

— Enterprise (FY2014 revenues / EBITDA: $23.3 billion / $2.2 billion): Consists of Enterprise Solutions, Software, the corporate business of Services (~90% of Services revenue) and the corporate-related portion of S&P (~25 of S&P revenue)

Illustrative Spin-Merger Analysis

(In US$)

A spin-merger between Client and Strategic Party has the potential to enhance Denali shareholder value, assuming:

Multiple uplift of Client business if New Strategic Party (pro forma Client + Strategic Party) trades in-line with Strategic Party’s current standalone multiples

Potential revenue and cost synergies through a combination of Client and Strategic Party

Enterprise business multiple re-rating in line with Enterprise peer trading multiples

Other unquantified potential tax and structuring benefits related to New Strategic Party (e.g. foreign jurisdiction for new company)

However, issues around execution (including negotiating a merger with a third party), timing and post-transaction trading performance are some of the uncertainties in a spin-merger transaction, in addition to those found in a straight spin transaction

Goldman Sachs B Preliminary Separation Topics for Consideration INVESTMENT BANKING DIVISION

For the purposes of evaluating the potential benefits and consideration of a business separation, we consider, based on management guidance, an illustrative separation of Denali into:

— Client: Consists of EUC, the consumer business of Services’ Support & Deployment (~10% of Services revenue) and the consumer-related portion of S&P (~75% of S&P revenue)

— Enterprise: Consists of Enterprise Solutions, Software, the corporate business of Services (~90% of Services revenue) and the corporate-related portion of S&P (~25 of S&P revenue)

Potential Benefits

Potentially “unlock” embedded shareholder value through trading multiple re-rating and arbitrage

Allows each entity to pursue potentially unique strategic, operation and financial objectives

— Pursue and execute growth strategy

— Strategic flexibility and optionality

— Management focus

In a public market context, may allow each entity to target potentially different shareholder bases

Each entity could potentially become an acquisition/merger target

Potential Considerations

The nature, magnitude and impact of potential operating dissynergies, including the loss of:

— Revenue and cross-selling opportunities

– Sales organization leverage

— Entry into emerging markets via Client / PC pull-through of Enterprise

— COGS / materials sourcing scale and influence

— Shared corporate overhead and public company costs

— Scale / credit quality to provide financing services to customers

— Client cash flows for investment in Enterprise

Potential customer, supplier and employee reaction and impact

The management pipeline to fill senior management positions at both entities

Potential shareholder dislocation

Illustrative per share value outcomes to Denali shareholders in spin-off scenarios are driven by potentially achieving a public multiple re-rating to higher multiples that are more in-line with Client peers (~4.0x FY2014 EBITDA) and Enterprise peers (~7.0x FY2014 EBITDA) trading multiples today

Illustrative Sensitivity Analysis

Other spin-off variations include

— 100% spin-off with a cash dividend to shareholders that is funded by additional debt raised at Client and/or Enterprise

— Sponsored spin-off in which a sponsor makes an equity investment for up to a 49.9% stake in Client, with those cash proceeds being used to pay a cash dividend to shareholders

Additional leverage at either entity could potentially impact the pro forma trading multiples, thus changing the value shareholders may receive

Similarly, a sponsor’s investment in Client can be at a negotiated value discount, thereby also affecting the value shareholders may receive

Summary Dissynergy Assumptions

The illustrative spin-off analyses make a number of assumptions regarding potential operational, financial and transaction-related dissynergies, including:

— $580 million of annual dissynergies at Enterprise related to sourcing (~2.7% of Enterprise revenue and 5.5% of ESG revenue)

— $100 million each of additional annual corporate and public company costs at both separated entities that would need to be duplicated

— $1 billion of one-time, pre-tax transaction-related separation costs

— Does not assume any DFS related-financial impact

— 35% tax rate on repatriation of offshore cash balances for deleveraging purposes

— Lower leverage capacity as a result of lower pro forma EBITDA related to operational dissynergies

(US$ in millions, except per share amounts)

As a result of the difference between Denali’s current P / E multiple and the cost of newly issued debt or the cost of holding cash on the balance sheet (even factoring for a potential 35% repatriation tax), Denali could potentially deliver value accretion to shareholders through a debt or cash-funded one-time share repurchase or cash dividend

PRELIMINARY CONFIDENTIAL DRAFT – SUBJECT TO CHANGE AFTER FURTHER DILIGENCE AND REVIEW

Goldman Sachs Preliminary DFS Topics for Consideration INVESTMENT BANKING DIVISION

Summary of Selected Key Topics and Preliminary Perspectives

1 What is the impact of a sub-investment grade corporate credit rating on DFS?

There are likely two primary impacts of a credit downgrade on DFS:

— Inability to source funding via the commercial paper market

– Denali could potentially increase the size of the securitization program and / or access other forms of funding (e.g., an ABL revolver) to replace the commercial paper funding sources

— Higher funding costs across the range of funding sources

The Company should however continue to have access to the conduit and securitization markets, as well as the unsecured market

2 Could DFS be “ring-fenced” to mitigate the potential impacts of a corporate credit rating downgrade?

While there are examples of similar situations whereby the rating agencies have delineated between opco / holdco structures when dealing with captive financing subsidiaries (e.g., Ford), it is likely that the ring-fenced entity would be rated within 1-2 notches of the parent

— A range of other factors could influence the chances of benefitting from a ring-fence approach, including the nature of the protections / barriers put in place between the parent and subsidiary, the ownership structure of the subsidiary, the standalone credit quality of the subsidiary, perceptions around the parent’s credit strength and the level of co-dependence between the parent and subsidiary, among others

On balance, we do not believe the Company would materially benefit from a ring-fenced structure given the Company would still likely be able to access key funding markets, albeit at slightly higher funding costs

3 Would a separation of Denali into Client and Enterprise businesses automatically require a divestiture of DFS?

A separation, in and of itself, would not necessarily require a divestiture of DFS. There exists the potential to, in effect, separate the DFS portfolio and establish a DFS successor entity at each of Client and Enterprise

— Key factors to consider would include the credit quality and ratings of the new companies, the portfolio diversity of the receivables within each DFS successor entity and the resulting ability to access the funding markets and cost of funding

4 Are there potential third party alternatives available for DFS?

There is likely to be interest from third parties in acquiring all or a portion of DFS

There are examples of other companies that have outsourced their financing activities and established relationships with third party financing providers (e.g., Apple / Barclays, Kohl’s / Capital One)

— Key factors will likely center around what level of control Denali would like to maintain from a customer interfacing perspectives and determining a set of governance controls for the relationship (e.g., underwriting standards, financing terms, veto rights and final authority)
