EMC lead director William Green said last week that the deal will close “unless an act of god happens.”

Meanwhile, Dell chief integration officer Rory Read said this week in a letter to Dell employees that the company’s legal and government affairs teams “are working through all the required regulatory review cycles in the applicable countries.”

The letter by Read was filed with the SEC on Tuesday.

“I want to address some of the chatter over the past few weeks about possible financing headwinds with the transaction,” Read wrote. “I can assure you any suggestions our debt financing is in jeopardy are off-target and do not reflect our financing terms and the progress of our financing to date.”
