Explanation of Responses:

Id	Content
F1	Each share is represented by a performance-based restricted stock unit ("PSU"). The number of shares acquired represents the achievement of performance conditions, as certified by the Issuer's Compensation Committee on October 18, 2023, with respect to PSUs granted to the Reporting Person on August 20, 2021. The PSUs vest on October 20, 2023, subject to the Reporting Person continuing to be a Service Provider through that vesting date.
F2	In connection with the vesting of PSUs, the Reporting Person elected to defer these shares pursuant to the Palo Alto Networks, Inc. Deferred Compensation Plan (the "Deferred Compensation Plan").
F3	Shares are held by Bacchey Investments L.P., of which Bacchey Management LLC (the "LLC") is the General Partner. The Reporting Person is the manager of the LLC. The sole member of the LLC is the Aurora Trust, for which the Reporting Person serves as a trustee.
F4	Pursuant to the Deferred Compensation Plan, each share of phantom stock represents the Reporting Person's right to receive one share of common stock of the Issuer. The common stock shares will be released on or about January 31, 2027.
