미국 컴퓨터 대기업 델은 12일, 미국 투자 펀드 등과 함께 미국 IT기기 대기업 EMC를 약 670억 달러(약 77조 원)에 인수한다고 발표했다. 미 언론에 따르면, IT업계 과거 최대의 인수가 된다. 2016년 10월까지 인수 완료를 목표로 하고 있다. EMC는 ‘스토리지’로 불리는 대용량 데이터의 외부기억장치가 강점이다. 델은 이번 인수를 통해 법인 대상 데이터 보관 클라우드 서비스 등 성장 시장에서 공세를 강화하려는 의도가 있다. EMC는 주가가 정체됨에 따라 주주인 헤지펀드로부터 경영 개혁을 요구받아 왔다. 델은 장기적 시점에서 경영을 재건하기 위해 2013년에 비상장화하고 있다.【뉴욕 교도】

One of the largest tech mergers in history will be announced on Monday morning.

It seems to be happening.

EMC  EMC 1.72%  is planning to announce at 7 a.m. on Monday that it has agreed to be acquired by privately-owned Dell, according to multiple sources. [Update: It’s official]

The resulting company could be worth around $75 billion. The merger has been orchestrated by the two principals and Silver Lake, the private-equity firm that helped take Dell private in late 2013.

Current discussions point to a price of $33 per EMC share, plus another $7 per share related to VMware as a “tracking stock,” sources tell Fortune. EMC shares closed trading Friday at $27.86, and were nearly $29 in the aftermarket on Sunday evening.

Elliott Management, the activist investor that has been pushing for changes at EMC, including the sale of EMC’s stake in VMware  VMW -8.02% , is not believed to have been in the room during last-minute discussions between the two sides. But, EMC’s board, which was reportedly meeting Sunday to hammer out details, does include two Elliott-friendly directors.

In addition, Reuters reports that EMC is pushing for the inclusion of a ‘go-shop’ provision that would allow the storage giant to seek superior bids from other parties. That provision also would enable EMC to pay a lesser break-up fee to Dell if an alternate deal comes to fruition.

The goal is to take the resulting EMC entity private, sources said.

Neither EMC nor Dell has returned requests for comment.

Update, October 12, 2015: It’s official.
