[FORM OF]

EMC CORPORATION
Amended and Restated 2003 Stock Plan
Restricted Stock Unit Agreement

1.     Grant of Restricted Stock Units

        EMC Corporation, a Massachusetts corporation (the "Company"), hereby grants to you (the "Participant"), on the grant date referenced above (the "Grant Date"), a restricted stock unit award (the "Award") with respect to the number of units of the Company's common stock referenced under "Units Granted" above (the "Units"). The Award is made pursuant to and is subject to the provisions of this Restricted Stock Unit Agreement and the Company's Amended and Restated 2003 Stock Plan, as amended from time to time (the "Plan"). Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Restricted Stock Unit Agreement shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Plan.

2.     Units

        The Participant's rights to the shares of the Company's common stock ("Shares") underlying the Units are subject to the restrictions described in this Restricted Stock Unit Agreement and the Plan, in addition to such restrictions, if any, as may be imposed by law.

3.     Forfeiture Restrictions

        The Units are subject to certain forfeiture restrictions, as described below. These restrictions are referred to in this Restricted Stock Unit Agreement as the "Forfeiture Restrictions." The Forfeiture Restrictions lapse with respect to Units as set forth in Section 4 below and the applicable provisions of the Plan. To the extent Units are no longer subject to the Forfeiture Restrictions, they are referred to in this Restricted Stock Unit Agreement as "Vested Units" and are treated as set forth in Section 5 below. Units subject to the Forfeiture Restrictions are referred to in this Restricted Stock Unit Agreement as "Unvested Units."

        No Unvested Units may be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise disposed of except as provided in this Restricted Stock Unit Agreement and in the Plan. Any attempt to dispose of any Units in contravention of this Restricted Stock Unit Agreement or the Plan shall be null and void and without effect.

        In the event that the Participant's Service Relationship terminates for any reason, except as otherwise provided in the Plan or this Restricted Stock Unit Agreement with respect to termination by reason of death or Disability or as otherwise provided in the Change in Control Severance Agreement by and between the Participant and the Company, all Unvested Units shall be automatically and immediately forfeited.

4.     Lapse of the Forfeiture Restrictions

        The Forfeiture Restrictions shall lapse in accordance with this Section 4 and the applicable provisions of the Plan as follows:

    (a)
    (i) On [            ] anniversary of the Grant Date, the Forfeiture Restrictions with respect to [                        ] of the Units shall lapse and such Units shall constitute Vested Units.

      (ii)
      On the [                        ] anniversary of the Grant Date, the Forfeiture Restrictions with respect to [                        ] of the Units shall lapse and such Units shall constitute Vested Units.

      (iii)
      On the [            ] anniversary of the Grant Date, the Forfeiture Restrictions with respect to [                        ] of the Units shall lapse and such Units shall constitute Vested Units.

      (iv)
      On the [            ] anniversary of the Grant Date, the Forfeiture Restrictions with respect to [                        ] of the Units shall lapse and such Units shall constitute Vested Units.

    (b)
    Units may also vest if provided in the Plan or this Restricted Stock Unit Agreement with respect to termination of the Participant's Service Relationship (i) by reason of death or Disability or (ii) as provided in the Change in Control Severance Agreement by and between the Participant and the Company. Except as set forth in this Section 4, none of the Forfeiture Restrictions shall lapse with respect to any Units on any date specified above unless the Participant's Service Relationship is then in effect. The termination of the Participant's Service Relationship must constitute a "separation from service" for purposes of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder (collectively, "Section 409A") in order for the vesting described in the first sentence of this Section 4(b) to occur. Section 6.6.3 of the Plan (Termination of a Participant's Service Relationship by Reason of Retirement) shall not apply to this Award. Accordingly, if a Participant's Service Relationship terminates by reason of Retirement, Units shall be governed by Section 6.6.4 of the Plan (Termination of a Participant's Service Relationship for any Other Reason).

5.     Settlement of Units

        If Units become Vested Units, a Share shall be issued or credited to the Participant in respect of each such Vested Units promptly, and in no case later than the fifteenth (15th) day of the third calendar month following the year in which the Units became Vested Units; provided, however, that if the Units vest as a result of the termination of the Participant's Service Relationship then, to the extent necessary to avoid the application of an accelerated or additional tax under Section 409A, the payment of amounts otherwise due during the first six months following the Participant's "separation from service" shall be delayed until the end of such six month period if the Participant is a "specified employee" (defined generally under Section 409A as one of the 50 most highly compensated officers) with respect to the Company and then paid within five (5) days following the end of such period.

6.     Dividends

        The Participant shall be eligible to receive any and all dividends or other distributions paid with respect to a number of Shares that correspond to the number of Units held by the Participant; provided, however, that any property (other than cash) distributed with respect to a Unit (the "associated unit") acquired hereunder, including without limitation a distribution of the Company's common stock by reason of a stock dividend, stock split or otherwise, or a distribution of other securities with respect to an associated unit, shall be subject to the restrictions of this Performance Restricted Stock Unit Agreement in the same manner and for so long as the associated unit remains subject to such restrictions, and shall be promptly forfeited if and when the associated unit is so forfeited; and further provided, that any cash distribution with respect to the Units shall be converted to additional Units based on the fair market value of Shares as determined by the Committee and shall be subject to the restrictions of this Performance Restricted Stock Unit Agreement in the same manner and for so long as the associated unit remains subject to such restrictions, and shall be promptly forfeited if and when the associated unit is so forfeited. References in this Performance Restricted Stock Unit Agreement to the Units shall include any such restricted amounts.

7.     Taxes

        The Participant acknowledges and agrees that he or she is solely responsible for any and all taxes that may be assessed by any taxing authority in the United States or any other jurisdiction arising in


any way out of the Award, the Units or the Shares and that neither the Company nor any Company subsidiary is liable for any such assessments. The grant of the Award and the vesting of the Units, the conversion of Units to Shares and the payment or crediting of dividends with respect to the Units, may give rise to taxable income subject to withholding. The Participant expressly acknowledges and agrees that the Company will automatically withhold from the Shares issuable in respect of the Units such number of Shares having a value sufficient to provide for the minimum applicable withholding taxes required by law in connection with such grant, vesting or payment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Committee determines that under applicable law and regulations the Company or any Company subsidiary could be liable for the withholding of any income or social taxes with respect to the foregoing, the Company may withhold Shares to be delivered to the Participant unless the Participant gives such security as the Committee deems adequate to meet the potential liability of the Company or such Company subsidiary for the withholding of tax and agrees to augment such security from time to time in an amount reasonably determined by the Committee to preserve the adequacy of such security.

8.     Non-transferability of Award

        The Award is not transferable by the Participant except by will or the laws of descent and distribution.

9.     Provisions of the Plan

        This Restricted Stock Unit Agreement and the Award are subject to the provisions of the Plan, a copy of which has been furnished to the Participant herewith.

10.   Entire Agreement

        This Restricted Stock Unit Agreement (including the documents referred to herein) constitutes the entire agreement with respect to the Award and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, whether oral or written, between the Participant and the Company with respect to the foregoing.
