| F1 | On March 18, 2024, pursuant to the terms of an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "Merger Agreement"), Spirit Merger Corp. merged with and into Splunk Inc. (the "Issuer"), with the Issuer continuing as the surviving corporation and a subsidiary of Cisco Systems, Inc. (the "Merger"). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the effective time of the Merger, each share of common stock of the Issuer ("Common Stock") outstanding was converted into the right to receive $ 157.00 per share in cash, subject to any required tax withholding (the "Merger Consideration"). Each restricted stock unit held by a non-employee member of the board of directors of the Issuer was converted into the right to receive an amount in cash, without interest, equal to the product of the number of shares subject to such award multiplied by the Merger Consideration. Mr. Kenneth Hao resigned from the board of directors of the Issuer effective upon closing of the Merger. |
| F2 | Includes 1,616 restricted stock units which were canceled in connection with the Merger and converted into the right to receive an amount of cash equal to the product of the number of shares subject to such restricted stock unit multiplied by the Merger Consideration. |
| F3 | These securities were held by Mr. Hao for the benefit of Silver Lake Technology Management, L.L.C., certain of its affiliates, and certain of the funds they manage ("Silver Lake").

Pursuant to Mr. Hao's arrangement with Silver Lake with respect to director compensation, upon the sale of these securities, the proceeds from such sale(s) are expected to be remitted to Silver Lake and/or its limited partners. |
| F4 | These securities are held by a trust for the benefit of Mr. Hao's family. |
| F5 | Following the Merger, the 0.75% Convertible Senior Notes due 2026 ("Convertible Notes") are no longer convertible into shares of Common Stock, but instead automatically became convertible into an amount of cash equal to the product of the number of shares issuable upon conversion of the principal amount thereof, based on a conversion rate of 6.2500 per $1,000 principal amount of Convertible Notes (equivalent to a conversion price of approximately $160.00 per share of Common Stock), as adjusted pursuant to the terms of the Indenture governing the Convertible Notes to reflect the increase in the conversion rate applicable to the Convertible Notes surrendered in connection with a make-whole fundamental change, multiplied by the Merger Consideration. |
| F6 | The Convertible Notes mature on July 15, 2026, subject to earlier redemption, repurchase or conversion in accordance with their terms. On March 19, 2024 the Convertible Notes were converted and an aggregate of $832,376,320 and $208,094,080 were received by SLP Spark Holdings, L.P. and SLA Spark Holdings, L.P., respectively. |
