Related Party Transactions | 13. Related Party Transactions DellEMC and VMware Agency Arrangements Dell, including DellEMC and VMware, are our customers. Since our formation, we have also entered into agency arrangements with DellEMC and VMware that enable our sales team to sell our subscriptions and services leveraging the DellEMC and VMware enterprise relationships and end customer contracts. These transactions result in DellEMC or VMware invoicing customers and collecting on our behalf. In exchange, we pay an agency fee, which is based on a percentage of the invoiced contract amounts, for their services. Such percentage ranged from 1.5% to 5% for the six months ended August 3, 2018 and August 4, 2017, respectively. In aggregate, we paid DellEMC and VMware $2.1 million and $1.6 million for the three months ended August 3, 2018 and August 4, 2017, respectively, and $5.7 million and $2.9 million for the six months ended August 3, 2018 and August 4, 2017, respectively, which was deferred and amortized to sales and marketing expense over the term of the underlying customer arrangements. Sales of our Products and Services to DellEMC and VMware From time to time, we have sold our software products and professional, software support and other services to DellEMC and VMware for their internal use. Revenue recognized for sales of our products and services to DellEMC was $3.1 million and $2.5 million for the three months ended August 3, 2018 and August 4, 2017, respectively, and was $6.8 million and $4.8 million for the six months ended August 3, 2018 and August 4, 2017, respectively.

DellEMC and VMware Transition Services and Employee Matters Agreements We and DellEMC engage in several ongoing related party transactions which resulted in costs to us. DellEMC acts as a paying agent for certain of our expenses including payments to vendors and other expenses such as payroll. Pursuant to ongoing shared services and employee matters agreements, we are charged by DellEMC for certain management and administrative services, including routine management, administration, finance and accounting based upon estimates and allocations. Additionally, in certain geographic regions where we do not have an established legal entity, we contract with DellEMC subsidiaries for support services. We are charged for overhead items such as facilities and IT systems for our employees that work from DellEMC office locations. The costs incurred by DellEMC on our behalf related to these employees are charged to us with a markup. These costs are included as expenses in our consolidated statements of operations and primarily include salaries, benefits, travel and rent. These expenses are charged to us on the basis of direct usage when identifiable, with the remainder charged primarily on the basis of headcount or other measures. Management believes the basis on which the expenses have been allocated to be a reasonable reflection of the utilization of services provided to or the benefit received by us during the periods presented. Charges received from DellEMC for the three months ended August 3, 2018 and August 4, 2017 were $7.6 million and $28.1 million, respectively, and for the six months ended August 3, 2018 and August 4, 2017 were $16.2 million and $61.9 million, respectively. Dell Technologies Tax Sharing Agreement Pursuant to a tax sharing agreement Pivotal has historically received payments from Dell Technologies for the tax benefits derived from the inclusion of our losses in certain Dell Technologies U.S federal and state group returns. As of a result of stock issued during our IPO, Pivotal no longer qualifies for inclusion in the Dell Technologies U.S federal consolidated tax return. This reduces the amount of benefit or expense we receive from the tax sharing agreement in prospective periods to the benefit or expense that Dell Technologies realizes from our inclusion in their unitary state returns. As of August 3, 2018, the tax sharing agreement receivable of $0.2 million is included in the due from Parent and additional paid in capital financial statement lines.
