(1) Glenn H. Hutchins (the "Reporting Person") is a shareholder and a director of Silver Lake (Offshore) AIV GP LTD., which is the general partner of each of Silver Lake Technology Associates Cayman, L.P. and Silver Lake Technology Investors Cayman, L.P. Silver Lake Technology Associates Cayman, L.P. is the general partner of each of Silver Lake Partners Cayman, L.P. and Silver Lake Investors Cayman, L.P. As of December 9, 2004, Silver Lake Technology Investors Cayman, L.P., Silver Lake Partners Cayman, L.P. and Silver Lake Investors Cayman, L.P. (collectively, the "Silver Lake Funds") owned approximately 31.8% of the outstanding ordinary shares of New SAC. New SAC is the controlling shareholder of Seagate Technology (the "Issuer"). New SAC entered into the forward contract reported hereby.
(2) The Reporting Person is also a member of New SAC's board of directors. Because of his affiliation with the Silver Lake Funds and as a director of New SAC, the Reporting Person may be deemed to have shared voting and dispositive power over the securities held by New SAC. The Reporting Person, however, disclaims beneficial ownership of any of the securities beneficially owned by New SAC, except to the extent of any pecuniary interest therein.
(3) New SAC entered into a forward sale agreement with Goldman Sachs Financial Markets, L.P. on December 9, 2004 relating to 30,000,000 of the Issuer's common shares, par value $0.00001 per share (the "Shares"). The arrangement is reflected in Table II as a futures contract. Under the forward sale agreement, New SAC has agreed to deliver the Shares to Goldman Financial Markets, L.P. To secure New SAC's delivery obligations to Goldman Sachs Financial Markets, L.P. under the forward sale agreement, New SAC has pledged 30,000,000 of the Issuer's Common Shares to Goldman Sachs Financial Markets, L.P. Under the forward sale agreement, New SAC expects to receive payment for the shares in January 2005.
