Item 8.01 Other Events.

As previously announced, on July 24, 2018, notification and report forms under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 (the “HSR Act”) were filed with the United States Federal Trade Commission and the United States Department of Justice with respect to the proposed merger between Broadcom Inc. and CA, Inc. At 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on August 23, 2018, the waiting period with respect to the notification and report forms filed under the HSR Act expired.

The expiration of the waiting period under the HSR Act satisfies a condition to the closing of the proposed merger. The parties continue to expect the transaction to close in the fourth calendar quarter of 2018, subject to other customary closing conditions, including the approval of CA, Inc.’s stockholders and the receipt of other required regulatory approvals.

Additional Information and Where to Find It

This communication is being made in respect of the proposed transaction involving CA, Inc. (“CA”) and Broadcom Inc. (“Broadcom”). In connection with the proposed transaction, CA intends to file relevant materials with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), including a definitive proxy statement on Schedule 14A that was filed with the SEC on August 10, 2018. CA subsequently mailed the definitive proxy statement and a proxy card to each stockholder of CA entitled to vote at the special meeting relating to the proposed transaction. This communication is not a substitute for the proxy statement or any other document that CA has filed with the SEC or has sent to its stockholders in connection with the proposed transaction. BEFORE MAKING ANY VOTING DECISION, STOCKHOLDERS OF CA ARE URGED TO READ THESE MATERIALS (INCLUDING ANY AMENDMENTS OR SUPPLEMENTS THERETO) AND ANY OTHER RELEVANT DOCUMENTS IN CONNECTION WITH THE PROPOSED TRANSACTION THAT CA HAS FILED WITH THE SEC BECAUSE THEY CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT CA AND THE PROPOSED TRANSACTION. The definitive proxy statement and other relevant materials in connection with the proposed transaction, and any other documents filed by CA with the SEC, may be obtained free of charge at the SEC’s website (http://www.sec.gov) or at CA’s website (http://www.ca.com) or by contacting CA’s Investor Relations at traci.tsuchiguchi@ca.com.

CA and its directors and executive officers may be deemed to be participants in the solicitation of proxies from CA’s stockholders with respect to the proposed transaction. Information about CA’s directors and executive officers and their ownership of CA’s common stock is set forth in CA’s proxy statement on Schedule 14A filed with the SEC on June 29, 2018, and CA’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2018, which was filed with the SEC on May 9, 2018.
