Explanation of Responses:

1. On March 2, 2021, the Reporting Person was granted a performance-based stock option award to purchase up to 1,000,000 shares of common stock (the "Award") if and to the extent the five equal tranches of the Award are earned based on the achievement of certain absolute revenue and stock price goals. On September 19, 2023, achievement of the revenue goal for the fourth tranche of 200,000 shares under the Award was certified, which resulted in the creation of the derivative security reported in this filing. The applicable $95 stock price goal achievement for the fourth tranche had previously been certified, and, as a result, the 200,000 shares associated therewith were earned and became exercisable.

2. Each restricted stock unit represents a contingent right to receive one share of SMCI common stock.

3. Subject to the Reporting Person's spouse's continued service to the Issuer, the restricted stock units vest in four equal annual increments on July 1 of each year, beginning on July 1, 2024. Vested units are settled in shares of SMCI common stock.
