Explanation of Responses:

* If the form is filed by more than one reporting person, see Instruction 4(b)(v).
** Intentional misstatements or omissions of facts constitute Federal Criminal Violations. See 18 U.S.C. 1001 and 15 U.S.C. 78ff(a).
(1) On January 27, 2006, the Reporting Person indirectly acquired 9,756 shares in a distribution from Silver Lake Partners Cayman, L.P. through its general partner to certain senior members of that general partner for the sole purpose of charitable giving. These 9,756 shares were issued in the name of The Davidson Living Trust, u/a/d January 22, 1996 and were previously reported as being indirectly beneficially owned by the Reporting Person. The Reporting Person donated these 9,756 shares on that same day to Episcopal Charities.
(2) Represents an aggregate of 31,811,080 common shares, par value $0.00001 per share (the "Common Shares") of Seagate Technology (the "Issuer") owned by Silver Lake Partners Cayman, L.P., Silver Lake Investors Cayman, L.P., Silver Lake Technology Investors Cayman, L.P. and Silver Lake New York, Inc. (collectively, the "Silver Lake Funds"). New SAC, the Issuer's former controlling stockholder and an affiliate of the Reporting Person, sold 1,572 Common Shares on February 1, 2006, which sale is being reported hereby. As a result of this sale, New SAC no longer holds any Common Shares of the Issuer.
(3) 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. Because of his affiliation with the Silver Lake Funds and New SAC, the Reporting Person may be deemed to have shared voting and dispositive power over the Issuer's Common Shares held by the Silver Lake Funds and those previously held by New SAC. The Reporting Person, however, disclaims beneficial ownership of any of the Issuer's Common Shares beneficially owned by the Silver Lake Funds and New SAC, except to the extent of any pecuniary interest therein.

Note: File three copies of this Form, one of which must be manually signed. If space is insufficient, see Instruction 6 for procedure.
