Explanatory Note

This current report on Form 8-K/A updates information provided on a Form 8-K dated May 4, 2011 relating to disclosures made under Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders, regarding the results of the EMC Corporation (the “Company”) Annual Meeting of Shareholders held on May 4, 2011 (the “2011 Annual Meeting”). The sole purpose of this Amendment is to disclose the decision of the Company’s Board of Directors regarding how frequently it will include a shareholder advisory vote on executive compensation in future proxy materials.

Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders

As previously reported, the results of the votes for the proposal regarding an advisory vote on the frequency of future advisory votes on executive compensation at the 2011 Annual Meeting were as follows:

 

One Year:

     1,267,293,602   

Two Years:

     17,355,450   

Three Years:

     178,923,838   

Abstain:

     3,711,501   

Broker Non-Votes:

     261,975,839   

In light of these voting results and other factors considered by the Board, the Board of Directors has determined that the Company will hold an advisory vote on executive compensation every year until the next shareholder advisory vote on frequency.
