Item 4    Ownership:      
   Pursuant to a Voting Trust Agreement, dated as of September 21, 2006 (the “Agreement”), among Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. (the “Bank”), and Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC and certain of its affiliates, the Bank and its parent company, Wells Fargo & Company, may be deemed to beneficially own 14,577,860 shares of the common stock, par value $0.01 (“Common Stock”), of CommVault Systems, Inc. (“CommVault”). Under the Agreement, the shares have been deposited into a voting trust and are voted by the Bank in accordance with the Agreement. The Agreement requires that the Bank cause the shares of Common Stock subject to the Agreement to be represented at all CommVault stockholder meetings for purposes of determining a quorum, but the Bank is not required to vote the shares on any matter and any determination whether to vote the shares is required by the Agreement to be made by the Bank without consultation with Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC and its affiliates. If, however, the Bank votes the shares on any matter subject to a stockholder vote, including proposals involving the election of directors, change of control and other significant corporate transactions, the shares will be voted in the same proportion as votes cast “for” or “against” those proposals by other CommVault stockholders.      
   Holders of shares of Common Stock subject to the Agreement will retain the right to receive any dividends or distributions paid on the Common Stock. In order for a holder to cause shares covered by the Agreement to be distributed or transfered, the transfer must be deemed an “eligible transfer” under the Agreement, or such transfer must be in connection with a tender offer to purchase all of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. Generally, an eligible transfer under the Agreement is a transfer of shares that would not (i) subject to certain normal trading activity and customer account exceptions cause the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock held outside of the voting trust by Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC and its affiliates to equal or exceed 5% of the Common Stock then outstanding or (ii) cause the entity receiving the shares to be an affiliate of CommVault. The Agreement also permits the parties to the Agreement to make distributions-in-kind of shares of Common Stock subject to the Agreement upon the satisfaction of specified requirements.      
   The Agreement will terminate upon the earliest of:      
  

•     September 21, 2016;

     
  

•     the written election of Credit Suisse First Boston Private Equity, Inc., an affiliate of Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC, Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC or the holders of the majority of the shares of Common Stock subject to the Agreement and the satisfaction of specified requirements; or

     
  

•     the transfer of all of the shares of Common Stock subject to the Agreement in a matter permitted thereunder.

     
   The Agreement provides Credit Suisse First Boston Private Equity, Inc., Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC and the holders of a majority of the shares of Common Stock subject to the Agreement with the right to terminate the Agreement subject to the satisfaction of specified requirements, including that, immediately after giving effect to such termination, Credit Suisse First Boston Private Equity, Inc. and its affiliates will not be affiliates of CommVault within the meaning of Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933.      
   The foregoing discussion of the Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.      
Item 5    Ownership of Five Percent or Less of a Class:   
   If this statement is being filed to report the fact that as of the date hereof the reporting persons have ceased to be beneficial owners of more than five percent of the class of securities, check the following [    ].   
Item 6    Ownership of More than Five Percent on Behalf of Another Person:      
   Under the Agreement described in Item 4, other persons may be deemed to have the right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, or the proceeds from the sale of, the securities covered by this report. Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC and certain of its affiliates may be deemed to beneficially own more than 5% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding at October 31, 2006. See Item 4.      
Item 7    Identification and Classification of the Subsidiary Which Acquired the Security Being Reported on by the Parent Holding Company:
   See Attachment A.
Item 8    Identification and Classification of Members of the Group:      
   Not applicable.      
Item 9    Notice of Dissolution of Group:      
   Not applicable.      
Item 10    Certification:      
   By signing below I certify that, to the best of my knowledge and belief, the securities referred to above were not acquired and are not held for the purpose of or with the effect of changing or influencing the control of the issuer of the securities and were not acquired and are not held in connection with or as a participant in any transaction having that purpose or effect.
