| Explanation of Responses: |
| 1. The number of shares acquired represents the number of shares that vested, effective on November 1, 2025, under certain performance-based restricted stock units granted to the Reporting Person on August 23, 2022 ("PSUs"). The Issuer's Compensation and People Committee certified the achievement of the performance conditions under the PSUs effective as of November 1, 2025. |
| 2. In connection with the vesting of of the PSUs described in Footnote 1, the Reporting Person elected to defer these shares pursuant to the Palo Alto Networks, Inc. Deferred Compensation Plan (the "Deferred Compensation Plan"). |
| 3. This transaction is not a sale of shares by the Reporting Person. Instead, this represents shares that have been withheld by the Issuer to satisfy its income tax and withholding and remittance obligations in connection with the vesting and net settlement of PSUs. |
| 4. Pursuant to the Deferred Compensation Plan, each share of phantom stock represents the Reporting Person's right to receive one share of common stock of the Issuer. Releases of the common stock shares are expected to be in installments beginning on or about January 31, 2030 and ending on or about January 31, 2034. |
