Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement, Other Events, Financial Statements and Exhib
On July 8, 2009, EMC Corporation ("EMC"), Envoy Merger Corporation, a wholly
owned subsidiary of EMC ("Purchaser") and Data Domain, Inc. ("Data Domain")
entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement"). As
previously announced and as contemplated by the terms of the Merger Agreement,
(a) EMC and Purchaser have commenced a cash tender offer (the "Offer") for all
outstanding shares (the "Shares") of Data Domain's common stock at a purchase
price of $33.50 per share, net to the seller in cash, without interest (the
"Offer Price") and (b) following consummation of the Offer, Purchaser will merge
with and into Data Domain with Data Domain surviving as a wholly-owned
subsidiary of EMC (the "Merger").
The terms of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Offer and the Merger, are set forth in Amendment No. 7 to the Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO originally filed by EMC and Purchaser with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on June 2, 2009, as amended on June 3, 2009, June 9, 2009, June 15, 2009, June 17, 2009, June 26, 2009, July 6, 2009 and July 9, 2009 (as amended, the "Schedule TO"), relating to the Offer. A copy of Amendment No. 7 to the Schedule TO is filed as Exhibit 99.1 hereto and is incorporated herein by reference.
The description of the Merger Agreement contained in the Schedule TO is only a
summary, does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by
reference to the Merger Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 2.1
hereto and is incorporated herein by reference. The Merger Agreement contains
representations and warranties by each of the parties to the Merger Agreement.
These representations and warranties have been made solely for the benefit of
the other parties to the Merger Agreement and: (a) should not in all instances
be treated as categorical statements of fact, but rather as a way of allocating
the risk to one of the parties if those statements prove to be inaccurate;
(b) have been qualified by disclosures that were made to the other party in
connection with the execution of the Merger Agreement, which disclosures are not
necessarily reflected in the Merger Agreement; (c) may apply standards of
materiality in a way that is different from what may be viewed as material to
you or other investors; and (d) were made only as of the date of the Merger
Agreement or such other date or dates as may be specified in the Merger
Agreement and are subject to more recent developments. Accordingly, these
representations and warranties may not describe the actual state of affairs as
of the date they were made or at any other time. Additional information about
EMC may be found elsewhere in this Current Report on Form 8-K and EMC's other
public filings, which are available without charge through the SEC's website at
www.sec.gov.

EMC and Purchaser have filed with the SEC a tender offer statement on Schedule TO containing an offer to purchase, forms of letters of transmittal and other documents relating to the tender offer, and these documents have been mailed to the stockholders of Data Domain. These documents contain important information about the tender offer and stockholders of Data Domain are urged to read them. Investors and stockholders of Data Domain are able to obtain a free copy of these documents and other documents filed by EMC and Purchaser with the SEC at the website maintained by the SEC at www.sec.gov. In addition, the tender offer statement and related materials may also be obtained by investors and stockholders of Data Domain free of charge by directing a request to the Information Agent for the offer, Morrow & Co., LLC at (800) 662-5200, or by email at emc.info@morrowco.com.
