Additional Equity FAQ for Broadcom/Avago Transaction

July 30, 2015

On July 29, 2015 a joint preliminary proxy statement/prospectus regarding Avago’s proposed acquisition of Broadcom was filed with the SEC and is available at: http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1649338/000119312515268522/d949371ds4.htm , such document referred to as the “joint preliminary proxy statement/prospectus.” The joint preliminary proxy statement/prospectus includes a range of answers to recently submitted employee questions. Please see the below current questions and answers or references to page numbers of answers included in the joint preliminary proxy statement/prospectus.

A: Please see “What will Broadcom shareholders receive in the Broadcom Merger?” and “How does the proration work?” on page 4 of the joint preliminary proxy statement/prospectus.

A: As with the answer in #1 above, please see “What will Broadcom shareholders receive in the Broadcom Merger?” and “How does the proration work?” on page 4 of the joint preliminary proxy statement/prospectus.

A: Generally all RSUs are unvested. For an explanation of treatment of unvested RSUs, please see “What will happen to unvested Broadcom equity awards in the merger?” on page 11 of the joint preliminary proxy statement/prospectus.

Shares you have previously received from the vesting of RSUs generally will be treated like any other Broadcom shares. Please see “What will Broadcom shareholders receive in the Broadcom Merger?” and “How does the proration work?” on page 4 of the joint preliminary proxy statement/prospectus.

A: Shares you have previously received from the ESPP generally will be treated like any other Broadcom shares. Please see “What will Broadcom shareholders receive in the Broadcom Merger?” and “How does the proration work?” on page 4 of the joint preliminary proxy statement/prospectus. Please also see Question/Answer 5 below.

A: Broadcom’s ESPP program will terminate effective as of immediately prior to the closing date. Prior to the termination of the Broadcom ESPP, all payroll deductions for the then-ongoing offering period will automatically be applied to the purchase of Broadcom Common Shares immediately prior to the closing date. The purchase price for these shares will be equal to eighty-five percent (85%) of the lower of (i) the fair market value of Broadcom Common Shares on your applicable entry date into the offering period or (ii) the fair market value of Broadcom Common Shares immediately prior to the closing date.

Since the final purchase date for the ESPP will occur after the “Election Deadline” (which is 5:00 p.m. New York City time on the date five business days prior to Avago’s good faith estimate of the effective time of the Broadcom Merger, or such other date as may be mutually agreed to by Avago and Broadcom), the Broadcom Common Shares issued as a result of such ESPP purchase date will be treated as non-electing shares and the holders of such shares will receive $54.50 in cash per Broadcom Common Share, subject to proration in accordance with the Merger Agreement.

A: Shares you have previously received from the exercise of your vested options generally will be treated like any other Broadcom shares. Please see “What will Broadcom shareholders receive in the Broadcom Merger?” and “How does the proration work?” on page 4 of the joint preliminary proxy statement/prospectus.

However, if the date you exercise any of your options is after the Election Deadline, any Broadcom Common Shares issued after the Election Deadline will be treated as non-electing shares and will receive $54.50 in cash per Broadcom Common Share, subject to proration in accordance with the Merger Agreement.

A: Broadcom’s Stock Incentive Plan provides that in the event of a change in control, outstanding stock options may be assumed but to the extent not assumed they will terminate and cease to be outstanding. The Stock Incentive Plan does not mandate assumption of any awards, and the option award agreements incorporate the terms of the plan and expressly state the award is granted pursuant to the plan and is limited by and subject to all the terms of the plan.

A: Please see “What will happen to vested Broadcom equity awards in the merger?” on page 11 of the joint preliminary proxy statement/prospectus.

A: Please see “What will happen to unvested Broadcom equity awards in the merger?” on page 11 of the joint preliminary proxy statement/prospectus.
