This Amendment No. 2 to Schedule 13D (this “Amendment No. 2”) amends and supplements the statement on Schedule 13D filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 28, 2022, as amended by Amendment No. 1 to Schedule 13D filed with the SEC on April 26, 2022 (together with Amendment No. 2, this “statement”) relating to the common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), of Quantum Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Issuer” or the “Company”), the principal executive offices of which are located at 224 Airport Parkway, Suite 550, San Jose, California 95110. Items 4 and 5 and Schedule A are hereby amended and/or supplemented as set forth below.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

Item 4 is hereby supplemented as follows:

Mr. Chris Neumeyer, an Executive Vice President at PIMCO and an observer on the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”), has been nominated by the Board for election as a director to the Board at the Company’s upcoming annual shareholder meeting, scheduled to take place on August 16, 2022.

Item 5. Interest in Securities of the Issuer.

Sections (a) and (b) of Item 5 are hereby amended and restated in their entirety as follows:

(a) and (b)

Items 7-13 of page 2 of this Amendment No. 2 are incorporated herein by reference.

The securities reported in this Schedule 13D are held by investment advisory clients or discretionary accounts of which PIMCO is the investment adviser, as described in Item 2. When an investment management contract (including a sub-advisory agreement) delegates to PIMCO investment discretion or voting power over the securities held in the investment advisory accounts that are subject to that agreement, PIMCO considers the agreement to grant it sole investment discretion or voting authority, as the case may be, unless the agreement specifies otherwise. Accordingly, PIMCO reports on Schedule 13D that it has sole investment discretion and voting authority over the securities covered by any such investment management agreement and may be deemed to beneficially own the securities held by its clients or accounts within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

In accordance with SEC Release No. 34-39538 (January 12, 1998), this Schedule 13D reports the securities beneficially owned or deemed to be beneficially owned by PIMCO. It does not include securities, if any, beneficially owned by PIMCO’s affiliates, whose ownership of securities is disaggregated from that of PIMCO in accordance with that release.

After reasonable inquiry and to the best of my knowledge and belief, I certify that the information set forth in this statement is true, complete and correct.
