if, for any other reason, we do not consummate the exchange offer on or before ~~July 13, 2018~~April 5, 2024, April 9, 2025, May 8, 2025 or ~~April 10, 2019,~~May 21, 2025, as applicable;

if an initial purchaser of the outstanding notes notifies us following consummation of the exchange offer that outstanding notes held by it are not eligible to be exchanged for exchange notes in the exchange offer; or

certain holders are prohibited by law or SEC policy from participating in the exchange offer or may not resell the exchange notes acquired by them in the exchange offer to the public without delivering a prospectus.

If we fail to comply with specified obligations under the registration rights agreements, we will be required to pay additional interest to holders of the outstanding notes. Such additional interest will generally be required to be paid if:

we fail to consummate the exchange offer on or before ~~July 13, 2018~~April 5, 2024, April 9, 2025, May 8, 2025 or ~~April 10, 2019,~~May 21, 2025, as applicable;

we are required to file a shelf registration statement, and we fail to file the shelf registration statement with the SEC on or before the 90th day after the date on which the shelf registration statement is required to be filed; or

after the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part or the shelf registration statement, as the case may be, is effective, such registration statement thereafter ceases to be effective or usable (subject to certain exceptions).

If you wish to exchange your outstanding notes for exchange notes in the exchange offer, you will be required to make the following written representations:

you will acquire the exchange notes in the ordinary course of your business;

at the time of the commencement of the exchange offer, you have no arrangement or understanding with any person to participate in the distribution (within the meaning of the Securities Act) of the exchange notes in violation of the provisions of the Securities Act;

you are not our “affiliate” or an “affiliate” of any guarantor of the notes, as defined by Rule 405 of the Securities Act, or if you are an “affiliate,” you will comply with the registration and prospectus-delivery requirements of the Securities Act to the extent applicable; and

you are not engaged in, and do not intend to engage in, a distribution of exchange notes.

Each broker-dealer that receives exchange notes for its own account in exchange for outstanding notes, where the broker-dealer acquired the outstanding notes as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities, must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of such exchange notes. See “Plan of Distribution.”

Resale of Exchange Notes

Based on interpretations by the SEC set forth inno-action letters issued to third parties, we believe that you may resell or otherwise transfer exchange notes issued in the exchange offer without complying with the registration and prospectus-delivery provisions of the Securities Act, if:

you are acquiring the exchange notes in the ordinary course of your business;

you do not have an arrangement or understanding with any person to participate in a distribution of the exchange notes;

you are not our “affiliate” or an “affiliate” of any guarantor of the notes as defined by Rule 405 of the Securities Act; and

you are not engaged in, and do not intend to engage in, a distribution of the exchange notes.

If you are our “affiliate,” or are engaging in, or intend to engage in, or have any arrangement or understanding with any person to participate in, a distribution of the exchange notes, or are not acquiring the exchange notes in the ordinary course of your business, then:

•

you cannot rely on the position of the SEC set forth inMorgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated ~~(available~~(available June 5, 1991) andExxon Capital Holdings Corporation ~~(available~~(available May 13, 1988), as interpreted in the SEC’s letter toShearman & Sterling, dated July 2, 1993, or similarno-action letters; and

in the absence of an exception from the position stated immediately above, you must comply with the registration and prospectus-delivery requirements of the Securities Act in connection with any resale of the exchange notes.

This prospectus may be used for an offer to resell, or for the resale or other transfer of exchange notes only as specifically set forth in this prospectus. With regard to broker-dealers, only broker-dealers that acquired the outstanding notes as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities may participate in the exchange offer. Each broker-dealer that receives exchange notes for its own account in exchange for outstanding notes where such outstanding notes were acquired by such broker-dealer as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of the exchange notes. Please read “Plan of Distribution” for more details regarding the transfer of exchange notes.

Terms of the Exchange Offer

OnUpon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this prospectus and in the accompanying letters of transmittal, we will accept for exchange in the exchange offer any outstanding notes that are validly tendered and not validly withdrawn prior to the expiration date. Outstanding notes may only be tendered in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess of $2,000. We will issue $2,000 principal amount or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof of exchange notes in exchange for a corresponding principal amount of outstanding notes surrendered in the exchange offer. In exchange for each outstanding note surrendered in the exchange offer, we will issue exchange notes with a like principal amount.

The form and terms of the exchange notes will be identical in all material respects to the form and terms of the outstanding notes, except that the offer and sale of the exchange notes will be registered under the Securities Act and the exchange notes will not contain terms with respect to transfer restrictions, registration rights and additional payments upon a failure to fulfill certain of our obligations under the registration rights agreements. The exchange notes will be issued under and entitled to the benefits of the indentures that authorized the issuance of the outstanding notes. For a description of the indentures, see “Description of Notes.”

The exchange offer is not conditioned upon any minimum aggregate principal amount of outstanding notes being tendered for exchange.

As of the date of this prospectus, there is outstanding a total of ~~$17.55 billion~~$24,180,261,000 aggregate principal amount of the outstanding notes. This prospectus and the letters of transmittal are being sent to all registered holders of outstanding notes. There will be no fixed record date for determining registered holders of outstanding notes entitled to participate in the exchange offer.

We intend to conduct the exchange offer in accordance with the provisions of the registration rights agreements, the applicable requirements of the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations of the SEC.

Outstanding notes that are not tendered for exchange in the exchange offer will remain outstanding and continue to accrue interest and be entitled to the rights and benefits that such holders have under the indentures relating to such holders’ series of outstanding notes and the registration rights agreements, except we will not have any further obligations to provide for the registration of the outstanding notes under the registration rights agreements.

We will be deemed to have accepted for exchange properly tendered outstanding notes when we have given written notice of the acceptance to the exchange agent. The exchange agent will act as agent for the tendering holders for the purposes of receiving the exchange notes from us and delivering exchange notes to holders. Subject to the terms of the registration rights agreements, we expressly reserve the right to amend or terminate the exchange offer and to refuse to accept outstanding notes for exchange upon the occurrence of any of the conditions specified below under “—Conditions to the Exchange Offer.”

If you tender your outstanding notes in the exchange offer, you will not be required to pay brokerage commissions or fees or, subject to the instructions in the letter of transmittal, transfer taxes with respect to the exchange of outstanding notes. We will pay all charges and expenses, other than certain applicable taxes described below, in connection with the exchange offer. It is important that you read the information under the caption “—Fees and Expenses” below for more details regarding fees and expenses incurred in the exchange offer.

Expiration Date; Extensions, Amendments

As used in this prospectus, the term “expiration date” means 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on , ~~2018.~~2020. However, if we, in our sole discretion, extend the period of time for which the exchange offer is open, the term “expiration date” will mean the latest time and date to which we shall have extended the expiration of such exchange offer.

To extend the period of time during which an exchange offer is open, we will notify the exchange agent of any extension by written notice, followed by notification by press release or other public announcement to the registered holders of the outstanding notes no later than 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the next business day after the previously scheduled expiration date. The notification will set forth, among other things, the approximate number of outstanding notes tendered to date.

We reserve the right, in our sole discretion:

to delay accepting for exchange any outstanding notes (only in the case that we amend or extend the exchange offer);

to extend the exchange offer or to terminate the exchange offer if any of the conditions set forth below under “—Conditions to the Exchange Offer” have not been satisfied by giving written notice of such delay, extension or termination to the exchange agent; and

subject to the terms of the registration rights agreements, to amend the terms of the exchange offer in any manner. In the event of a material change in the exchange offer, including the waiver of a material condition, we will extend the offer period, if necessary, so that at least five business days remain in such offer period following notice of the material change.

Any delay in acceptance, extension, termination or amendment will be followed as promptly as practicable by written notice to the registered holders of the outstanding notes. If we amend the exchange offer in a manner that we determine to constitute a material change, we will promptly disclose the amendment in a manner reasonably calculated to inform the holders of applicable outstanding notes of that amendment.

Conditions to the Exchange Offer

Despite any other term of the exchange offer, we will not be required to accept for exchange, or to issue exchange notes in exchange for, any outstanding notes, and we may terminate or amend the exchange offer as provided in this prospectus prior to the expiration date if in our reasonable judgment:

the exchange offer, or the making of any exchange by a holder violates any applicable law or interpretation of the SEC; or

any action or proceeding has been instituted or threatened in writing in any court or by or before any governmental agency with respect to the exchange offer that, in our judgment, would reasonably be expected to impair our ability to proceed with the exchange offer.

In addition, we will not be obligated to accept for exchange the outstanding notes of any holder that has not made to us:

the representations described under “—Purpose and Effect of the Exchange Offer and “—Procedures for Tendering Outstanding Notes” and “Plan of Distribution;” and

any other representations as may be reasonably necessary under applicable SEC rules, regulations, or interpretations to make available to us an appropriate form for registration of the offer and sale of the exchange notes under the Securities Act.

We expressly reserve the right at any time or at various times to extend the period of time during which the exchange offer is open. Consequently, we may delay acceptance of any outstanding notes by giving oral or written notice of such extension to their holders. We will return any outstanding notes that we do not accept for exchange for any reason without expense to their tendering holder promptly after the expiration or termination of the exchange offer.

We expressly reserve the right to amend or terminate the exchange offer and to reject for exchange any outstanding notes not previously accepted for exchange upon the occurrence of any of the conditions of the exchange offer specified above. We will give oral (promptly followed up by written notice) or written notice of any extension, amendment,non-acceptance or termination to the exchange agent and holders of the outstanding notes as promptly as practicable. In the case of any extension, such notice will be issued no later than 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the next business day after the previously scheduled expiration date.

These conditions are for our sole benefit, and we may assert them regardless of the circumstances that may give rise to them or waive them in whole or in part at any or at various times prior to the expiration date in our sole discretion. If we fail at any time to exercise any of the foregoing rights, this failure will not constitute a waiver of such right. Each such right will be deemed an ongoing right that we may assert at any time or at various times prior to the expiration date.

In addition, we will not accept for exchange any outstanding notes tendered, and will not issue exchange notes in exchange for any such outstanding notes, if at such time any stop order is threatened or in effect with respect to the registration statement of which this prospectus constitutes a part or the qualification of the indentures under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended.

Procedures for Tendering Outstanding Notes

To tender your outstanding notes in the exchange offer, you must comply with either of the following:

comply with DTC’s Automated Tender Offer Program procedures described below; or

complete, sign and date the letter of transmittal or a facsimile of the applicable letter of transmittal, have the signature(s) on such letter of transmittal guaranteed if required by the letter of transmittal and mail or deliver such letter of transmittal or facsimile thereof to the exchange agent at the address set forth below under “—Exchange Agent” prior to the expiration ~~date; or~~date.

~~comply with DTC’s Automated Tender Offer Program procedures described below.~~

In addition, you must comply with either of the following conditions:

the exchange agent must receive certificates for outstanding notes along with the applicable letter of transmittal prior to the expiration date; or

the exchange agent must receive a timely confirmation of book-entry transfer of outstanding notes into the exchange agent’s account at DTC according to the procedures for book-entry transfer described below or a properly transmitted agent’s message prior to the expiration ~~date; or~~

date.

~~you must comply with the guaranteed delivery procedures described below.~~

Your tender, if not withdrawn prior to the expiration date, constitutes an agreement between us and you upon the terms and subject to the conditions described in this prospectus and the applicable letter of transmittal.

The method of delivery of outstanding notes, letters of transmittal and all other required documents to the exchange agent is at your election and risk. We recommend that instead of delivery by mail, you use an overnight or hand delivery service, properly insured. In all cases, you should allow sufficient time to assure timely delivery to the exchange agent before the expiration date. You should not send letters of transmittal or certificates representing outstanding notes to us. You may request that your broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or nominee effect the above transactions for you.

If you are a beneficial owner whose outstanding notes are held in the name of a broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee and you wish to tender your outstanding notes, you should promptly instruct the registered holder to tender outstanding notes on your behalf. If you wish to tender the outstanding notes yourself, you must, prior to completing and executing the letter of transmittal and delivering your outstanding notes, either:

make appropriate arrangements to register ownership of the outstanding notes in your name; or

obtain a properly completed bond power from the registered holder of outstanding notes.

The transfer of registered ownership may take considerable time and may not be able to be completed prior to the expiration date. We are not responsible for any delays in any such transfer.

Signatures on the letter of transmittal or a notice of withdrawal, as the case may be, must be guaranteed by a member firm of a registered national securities exchange or of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc., a commercial bank or trust company having an office or correspondent in the United States or another “eligible guarantor institution” within the meaning of Rule17A(d)-15 under the Exchange Act, unless the outstanding notes surrendered for exchange are tendered:

by a registered holder of the outstanding notes who has not completed the box entitled “Special Registration Instructions” or “Special Delivery Instructions” on the letter of transmittal; or

for the account of an eligible guarantor institution.

If the letter of transmittal is signed by a person other than the registered holder of any outstanding notes listed on the outstanding notes, such outstanding notes must be endorsed or accompanied by a properly completed bond power. The bond power must be signed by the registered holder as the registered holder’s name appears on the outstanding notes and an eligible guarantor institution must guarantee the signature on the bond power.

If the letter of transmittal or any certificates representing outstanding notes or bond powers are signed by trustees, executors, administrators, guardians,attorneys-in-fact, officers of corporations, or others acting in a fiduciary or representative capacity, those persons should also so indicate when signing and, unless waived by us, they should also submit evidence satisfactory to us of their authority to so act.

Any financial institution that is a participant in DTC’s system may use DTC’s Automated Tender Offer Program to tender. Participants in the program may, instead of physically completing and signing the letter of

transmittal and delivering it to the exchange agent, electronically transmit their acceptance of the exchange by

causing DTC to transfer the outstanding notes to the exchange agent in accordance with DTC’s Automated Tender Offer Program procedures for transfer. DTC will then send an agent’s message to the exchange agent. The term “agent’s message” means a message transmitted by DTC, received by the exchange agent and forming part of the book-entry confirmation, which states that:

DTC has received an express acknowledgment from a participant in its Automated Tender Offer Program that is tendering outstanding notes that are the subject of the book-entry confirmation;

the participant has received and agrees to be bound by the terms of the letter of ~~transmittal, or in the case of an agent’s message relating to guaranteed delivery, that such participant has received~~transmittal; and ~~agrees to be bound by the notice of guaranteed delivery; and~~

we may enforce that agreement against such participant.

DTC is referred to herein as a “book-entry transfer facility.”

There are not any guaranteed delivery procedures applicable to the exchange offer.

Acceptance of Exchange Notes

In all cases, we will promptly issue exchange notes for outstanding notes that we have accepted for exchange under the exchange offer only after the exchange agent timely receives:

outstanding notes or a timely book-entry confirmation of such outstanding notes into the exchange agent’s account at the book-entry transfer facility; and

a properly completed and duly executed letter of transmittal and all other required documents or a properly transmitted agent’s message.

By tendering outstanding notes pursuant to the exchange offer, you will represent to us that, among other things:

you are not our “affiliate” or an “affiliate” of any guarantor of the notes within the meaning of Rule 405 under the Securities Act;

you are not engaged in, and do not intend to engage in, and you do not have an arrangement or understanding with any person or entity to participate in a distribution of the exchange notes; and

you are acquiring the exchange notes in the ordinary course of your business.

In addition, each broker-dealer that is to receive exchange notes for its own account in exchange for outstanding notes must represent that such outstanding notes were acquired by that broker-dealer as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities and must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus that meets the requirements of the Securities Act in connection with any resale of the exchange notes. The letter of transmittal states that by so acknowledging and by delivering a prospectus, a broker-dealer will not be deemed to admit that it is an “underwriter” within the meaning of the Securities Act. See “Plan of Distribution.”

Our interpretation of the terms and conditions of the exchange offer, including the letters of transmittal and the instructions to the letters of transmittal, and our resolution of all questions as to the validity, form, eligibility, including time of receipt, and acceptance of outstanding notes tendered for exchange will be final and binding on all parties. We reserve the absolute right to reject any and all tenders of any particular outstanding notes not properly tendered or to not accept any particular outstanding notes if the acceptance might, in our or our counsel’s judgment, be unlawful. We also reserve the absolute right to waive any defects or irregularities as to any particular outstanding notes prior to the expiration date.

Unless waived, any defects or irregularities in connection with tenders of outstanding notes for exchange must be cured before the expiration date. Neither we, the exchange agent, nor any other person will be under any

duty to give notification of any defect or irregularity with respect to any tender of outstanding notes for

exchange, nor will we or any of them incur any liability for any failure to give notification. Any outstanding notes received by the exchange agent that are not properly tendered and as to which the irregularities have not been cured or waived will be returned by the exchange agent to the tendering holder, unless otherwise provided in the letter of transmittal, promptly after the expiration date.

Book-Entry Delivery Procedures

Promptly after the date of this prospectus, the exchange agent will establish an account with respect to the outstanding notes at DTC, as the book-entry transfer facility, for purposes of the exchange offer. Any financial institution that is a participant in the book-entry transfer facility’s system may make book-entry delivery of the outstanding notes by causing the book-entry transfer facility to transfer those outstanding notes into the exchange agent’s account at the facility in accordance with the facility’s procedures for such transfer. To be timely, book-entry delivery of outstanding notes requires receipt of a confirmation of a book-entry transfer, which we refer to as a “book-entry confirmation,” prior to the expiration date. In addition, although delivery of outstanding notes may be effected through book-entry transfer into the exchange agent’s account at the book-entry transfer facility, the letter of transmittal or a manually signed facsimile thereof, together with any required signature guarantees and any other required documents, or an “agent’s message,” as defined below, in connection with a book-entry transfer, must, in any case, be delivered or transmitted to and received by the exchange agent at its address set forth on the cover page of the letter of transmittal prior to the expiration date to receive exchange notes for tendered outstanding ~~notes, or the guaranteed delivery procedure described below must be complied with.~~notes. Tender will not be deemed made until such documents are received by the exchange agent. Delivery of documents to the book-entry transfer facility does not constitute delivery to the exchange agent.

Holders of outstanding notes who are unable to deliver confirmation of the book-entry tender of their outstanding notes into the exchange agent’s account at the book-entry transfer facility or all other documents required by the letter of transmittal to the exchange agent on or prior to the expiration date must tender their outstanding notes according to the guaranteed delivery procedures described below.

~~Guaranteed Delivery Procedures~~

If you wish to tender your outstanding notes, but your outstanding notes are not immediately available or you cannot deliver your outstanding notes, the letter of transmittal or any other required documents to the exchange agent or comply with the procedures under DTC’s Automatic Tender Offer Program, prior to the expiration date, you may still tender if:

~~the tender is made through an eligible guarantor institution;~~

prior to the expiration date, the exchange agent receives from such eligible guarantor institution either a properly completed and duly executed notice of guaranteed delivery, by facsimile transmission, mail or hand delivery or a properly transmitted agent’s message and notice of guaranteed delivery, that (1) sets forth your name and address, the certificate number(s) of such outstanding notes and the principal amount of outstanding notes tendered; (2) states that the tender is being made thereby; and (3) guarantees that, within three Nasdaq Global Select Market trading days after the expiration date, the letter of transmittal, or facsimile thereof, together with the outstanding notes or a book-entry confirmation, and any other documents required by the letter of transmittal, will be deposited by the eligible guarantor institution with the exchange agent; and

the exchange agent receives the properly completed and executed letter of transmittal or facsimile thereof, as well as certificate(s) representing all tendered outstanding notes in proper form for transfer or a book-entry confirmation of transfer of the outstanding notes into the exchange agent’s account at DTC and all other documents required by the letter of transmittal, within three Nasdaq Global Select Market trading days after the expiration date.

~~Upon request, the exchange agent will send to you a notice of guaranteed delivery if you wish to tender your outstanding notes according to the guaranteed delivery procedures.~~

Withdrawal Rights

Except as otherwise provided in this prospectus, you may withdraw your tender of outstanding notes at any time prior to the expiration date. For a withdrawal to be effective:

the exchange agent must receive a written notice, which may be by telegram, telex, facsimile or letter, of withdrawal at its address set forth below under “—Exchange Agent;” or

you must comply with the appropriate procedures of DTC’s Automated Tender Offer Program system.

Any notice of withdrawal must:

specify the name of the person who tendered the outstanding notes to be withdrawn;

identify the outstanding notes to be withdrawn, including the certificate numbers and principal amount of the outstanding notes; and

where certificates for outstanding notes have been transmitted, specify the name in which such outstanding notes were registered, if different from that of the withdrawing holder.

If certificates for outstanding notes have been delivered or otherwise identified to the exchange agent, then, prior to the release of such certificates, you must also submit:

the certificate numbers of the particular certificates to be withdrawn; and

a signed notice of withdrawal with signatures guaranteed by an eligible guarantor institution, unless you are an eligible guarantor institution.

If outstanding notes have been tendered pursuant to the procedures for book-entry transfer described above, any notice of withdrawal must specify the name and number of the account at the book-entry transfer facility to be credited with the withdrawn outstanding notes and otherwise comply with the procedures of the facility. We

will determine, in our reasonable discretion, all questions as to the validity, form and eligibility, including time of receipt of notices of withdrawal, and our determination will be final and binding on all parties. Any outstanding notes so withdrawn will be deemed not to have been validly tendered for exchange for purposes of the exchange offer. Any outstanding notes that have been tendered for exchange but that are not exchanged for any reason will be returned to their holder, without cost to the holder, or, in the case of book-entry transfer, the outstanding notes will be credited to an account at the book-entry transfer facility, promptly after withdrawal, rejection of tender or termination of the exchange offer. Properly withdrawn outstanding notes may be retendered by following the procedures described under “—Procedures for Tendering Outstanding Notes” above at any time on or prior to the expiration date.

Fees and Expenses

The registration rights agreements provide that we will bear all expenses in connection with the performance of our obligations relating to the registration of the exchange notes and the conduct of the exchange offer. These expenses include registration and filing fees, accounting and legal fees and printing costs, among others. We will pay the exchange agent reasonable and customary fees for its services and reasonableout-of-pocket expenses. We will also reimburse brokerage houses and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries for customary mailing and handling expenses incurred by them in forwarding this prospectus and related documents to their clients that are holders of outstanding notes and for handling or tendering for such clients.

We have not retained any dealer-manager in connection with the exchange offer and will not pay any fee or commission to any broker, dealer, nominee or other person for soliciting tenders of outstanding notes pursuant to the exchange offer.

Accounting Treatment

We will record the exchange notes in our accounting records at the same carrying value as the outstanding notes, which is the aggregate principal amount as reflected in our accounting records on the date of exchange.

Accordingly, we will not recognize any gain or loss for accounting purposes upon the consummation of the exchange offer. We will capitalize the expenses of the exchange offer and amortize them over the life of the notes.

Transfer Taxes

We will pay all transfer taxes, if any, applicable to the exchanges of outstanding notes under the exchange offer. The tendering holder, however, will be required to pay any transfer taxes, whether imposed on the registered holder or any other person, if:

certificates representing outstanding notes for principal amounts not tendered or accepted for exchange are to be delivered to, or are to be issued in the name of, any person other than the registered holder of outstanding notes tendered;

tendered outstanding notes are registered in the name of any person other than the person signing the letter of transmittal; or

a transfer tax is imposed for any reason other than the exchange of outstanding notes under the exchange offer.

If satisfactory evidence of payment of such taxes is not submitted with the letter of transmittal, the amount of such transfer taxes will be billed to that tendering holder.

Consequences of Failure to Exchange

If you do not exchange your outstanding notes for exchange notes under the exchange offer, your outstanding notes will remain subject to the restrictions on transfer of such outstanding notes:

as set forth in the legend printed on the outstanding notes as a consequence of the issuance of the outstanding notes pursuant to the exemptions from, or in transactions not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws; and

as otherwise set forth in the offering memoranda distributed in connection with the private offerings of the outstanding notes.

In general, you may not offer or sell your outstanding notes except in transactions that are registered under the Securities Act or if the offer or sale is exempt from, or not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act and applicable state securities laws. Except as required by the registration rights agreements, we do not intend to register resales of the outstanding notes under the Securities Act.

Other

Participating in the exchange offer is voluntary, and you should carefully consider whether to participate. You are urged to consult your financial and tax advisors in making your own decision on what action to take.

We may in the future seek to acquire untendered outstanding notes in open market or privately negotiated transactions, through subsequent exchange offers or otherwise. We have no present plans to acquire any outstanding notes that are not tendered in the exchange offer or to file a registration statement to permit resales of any untendered outstanding notes.

The following summary is not a complete description of the terms of these debt obligations and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the applicable governing agreements, which are included as exhibits to Broadcom’s filings with the SEC and incorporated by reference in this prospectus.

November 2019 Term Loans

On November 4, 2019, in connection with the purchase of certain assets and assumption of certain liabilities of the Symantec Corporation Enterprise Security business, we entered into the November 2019 Credit Agreement, which provides for a $7,750 million unsecured termA-3 facility and a $7,750 million unsecured termA-5 facility (collectively, the “November 2019 Term Loans”). Interest on our November 2019 Term Loans is based on a floating rate and is payable monthly. Our obligations under the November 2019 Credit Agreement are guaranteed on an unsecured basis by Broadcom Corporation (“BRCM”) and Broadcom Technologies Inc.

(“BTI”). Beginning the second quarter of fiscal year 2020, we are required to repay 2.5% of the original principal borrowed under our November 2019 Term Loans every quarter until their respective maturity dates, unless and to the extent any amounts prepaid under the November 2019 Term Loans are applied to these required amortization payments. In May 2020, we repaid an aggregate of $5,424 million, or $2,712 million of each of our unsecured termA-3 facility and unsecured termA-5 facility.

May 2019 Term Loans

In January 2020, we repaid an aggregate of $1,000 million of term loans consisting of $500 million of each of our unsecured termA-5 andA-7 facilities under the credit agreement entered into in the May 2019 Credit Agreement (the “May 2019 Term Loans”), using net proceeds from issuances of Commercial Paper, as defined below. Our obligations under the May 2019 Credit Agreement are guaranteed on an unsecured basis by BRCM and BTI.

In addition to these unsecured term facilities, the May 2019 Credit Agreement provides for a five-year $5 billion unsecured revolving facility (the “Revolving Facility”), of which $500 million is available for the issuance of multi-currency letters of credit. The issuance of letters of credit and certain other instruments reduce the aggregate amount otherwise available under the Revolving Facility for revolving loans. Subject to the terms of the May 2019 Credit Agreement, we are permitted to borrow, repay and reborrow revolving loans at any time, prior to the earlier of (a) May 7, 2024 or (b) the date of termination, in whole of the revolving lenders’ commitments under the May 2019 Credit Agreement in accordance with the terms thereof. We had no borrowings outstanding as of June 12, 2020 under the Revolving Facility.

Commercial Paper

In February 2019, we established a commercial paper program pursuant to which we may issue unsecured commercial paper notes (“Commercial Paper”) in principal amount of up to $2 billion outstanding at any time with maturities of up to 397 days from the date of issue. Commercial Paper is sold under customary terms in the commercial paper market and may be issued at a discount from par or, alternatively, may be sold at par and bear interest at rates dictated by market conditions at the time of their issuance. As of June 12, 2020, we had $0 of Commercial Paper outstanding.

Except as described herein, beneficial interests in the global notes are shown on, and transfers thereof are effected only through, records

maintained by DTC and its direct and indirect participants. We do not intend to list the notes on any national securities exchange or include the notes in any automated quotation system.

Payments of principal of and interest on the notes issued in book-entry form are made as described below under “—Book-Entry Delivery and Form—Depositary Procedures.” Payments of principal of and interest on the notes issued in definitive form, if any, are made as described below under “—Book-Entry Delivery and Form—Payment and Paying Agents.”

Interest payable on any interest payment date or the maturity date is the amount of interest accrued from, and including, the next preceding interest payment date in respect of which interest has been paid or duly provided for (or from and including the issue date, if no interest has been paid or duly provided for with respect to the notes) to, but excluding, such interest payment date or maturity date, as the case may be.

Unless the context otherwise requires, references to “notes” for all purposes under the indentures and this description include any additional notes that may be issued.

The indentures do not contain any provisions that would limit the Obligors’ ability to incur additional unsecured indebtedness or require the maintenance of financial ratios or specified levels of net worth or liquidity.

Because the guarantees of each series of notes are not secured, they are effectively subordinated to any existing and future secured indebtedness of the Guarantors to the extent of the value of the collateral securing that indebtedness.

“Comparable Treasury Issue” means the United States Treasury security selected by an Independent Investment Banker as having an actual or interpolated maturity comparable to the remaining term of the notes to be redeemed, as if such notes matured on their applicable Par Call Date, that would be utilized, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the remaining term of the notes to be redeemed.

“Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any redemption date (1) the average of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such redemption date, after excluding the highest and lowest of the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, (2) if the Independent Investment Banker obtains fewer than four Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations, the average of all of these quotations or (3) if only one Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation is received, such quotation.

“Independent Investment Banker” means one of the Reference Treasury Dealers appointed by us.

“Par Call Date” means the April 2019 Par Call Dates, the April 2020 Par Call Dates, the May 2020 Par Call Dates and the June 2020 Par Call Dates.

Selection and Notice of Redemption

The notice of redemption will state the amount of notes to be redeemed and the redemption date. At our request given at least five Business Days prior to the date such notice is to be sent, the trustee shall give the notice of redemption in our name. In the event that we choose to redeem less than all of the notes, selection of the notes for redemption will be made by the trustee pro rata, by lot or by such method as the trustee shall deem fair and appropriate (and in the case of global notes, in accordance with the applicable procedures of DTC).

Notice of any redemption of any series of Notes may, at the Issuer’s discretion, be subject to one or more conditions precedent with respect to completion of a corporate transaction (including, but not limited to, any merger, acquisition, disposition, asset sale or corporate restructuring or reorganization) or financing (including, but not limited to, any incurrence of indebtedness (or entering into a commitment with respect thereto), sale and leaseback transaction, issuance of securities, equity offering or contribution, liability management transaction or other capital raise) and may be given prior to the completion thereof. If such redemption or purchase is so subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such notice shall describe each such condition, and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been satisfied by the redemption date. In addition, the Issuer may provide in such notice that payment of the redemption price and performance of the Issuer’s obligations with respect to such redemption may be performed by another person.

No notes of a principal amount of $2,000 or less shall be redeemed in part. Notice of redemption will be delivered at least 30 (in the case of the April 2019 notes) or 15 (in the case of the April 2020 notes, May 2020 notes or the June 2020 notes) but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each registered holder of notes to be redeemed. Unless we default in payment of the redemption price, on and after the redemption date, interest will cease to accrue on notes or portions thereof called for redemption. Additionally, at any time, we may repurchase notes in the open market and may hold such notes or surrender such notes to the trustee for cancellation.

Redemption for Taxation Reasons

The ~~Issuers~~Issuer may redeem the notes of a series, at ~~their~~its option, in whole, but not in part, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount thereof, upon not less than 30 (in the case of the April 2019 notes) or 15 (in the case of the April 2020 notes, May 2020 notes or the June 2020 notes) nor more than 60 days’ prior notice to the holders of notes (which notice shall be irrevocable), together with accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to (but not including) the date fixed for redemption (a “Tax Redemption Date”) (subject to the right of holders of record on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date falling prior to the Tax Redemption Date) and all Additional Amounts (as defined under “—Additional Amounts”), if any, then due or that will become due on the Tax Redemption Date as a result of the redemption or otherwise, if any, if the ~~Issuers determine~~Issuer determines in good faith that, as a result of:

(1)

any change in, or amendment to, the law or treaties (or any regulations, protocols or rulings promulgated thereunder) of a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction (as defined under “—Additional Amounts”) affecting taxation; or

(2)

any change in, or amendment to, an official position or the introduction of an official position regarding the application, administration or interpretation of such laws, treaties, regulations, protocols

or rulings (including a holding, judgment or order by a government agency or court of competent jurisdiction or a change in published administrative practice) (each of the foregoing in clauses (1) and (2), a “Change in Tax Law”),

anynon-U.S. Payor (as defined under “—Additional Amounts”), with respect to the notes or a guarantee of the notes is, or on the next date on which any amount would be payable in respect of the notes or a guarantee of the notes would be, required to pay any Additional Amounts, and such obligation cannot be avoided by taking reasonable measures available to suchnon-U.S. Payor (including the appointment of a new paying agent or the payment through anothernon-U.S. Payor).

In the case of anynon-U.S. Payor, the Change in Tax Law must have become effective on or after the date of the applicable offering memorandum (or, if the applicable Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction becomes a Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction after the date of the applicable offering memorandum, such a change that occurs after such later date). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such notice of redemption will be given earlier than 90 days prior to the earliest date on which thenon-U.S. Payor would be obligated to make such payment of Additional Amounts. Prior to the publication, mailing or delivery of any notice of redemption of the notes pursuant to the foregoing, the ~~Issuers~~

Issuer will deliver to the trustee (a) an officer’s certificate stating that ~~they are~~it is entitled to effect such redemption and setting forth a statement of facts showing that the conditions precedent to ~~their~~its right so to redeem have been satisfied and (b) an opinion of an independent tax counsel of recognized standing to the effect that thenon-U.S. Payor would be obligated to pay Additional Amounts as a result of a Change in Tax Law. The trustee will accept such officer’s certificate and opinion as sufficient evidence of the satisfaction of the conditions precedent described above, in which event it will be conclusive and binding on the holders.

The foregoing provisions will applymutatis mutandisto the laws and official positions of any jurisdiction in which any successor to anon-U.S. Payor is organized or otherwise considered to be a resident for tax purposes or any political subdivision or taxing authority or agency thereof or therein. The foregoing provisions will survive any termination, defeasance or discharge of the indentures.

Additional Amounts

~~All payments made by or on behalf~~After the occurrence of aNon-U.S. Domicile Transaction (as defined below) with respect to any ~~Issuer or any Guarantor~~Obligor or any successor in interest to ~~any of the foregoing~~an Obligor (each such Obligor or successor, a ~~“Payor”~~“non-U.S. Payor”), all payments made by anon-U.S. Payor on or with respect to the notes or any guarantee of the notes will be made without withholding or deduction for, or on account of, any present or future tax, duty, levy, impost, assessment or other similar governmental charge (collectively, “Taxes”) unless such withholding or deduction is required by law or by the interpretation of administration of law. If any deduction or withholding for, or on account of, any Taxes imposed or levied by or on behalf of:

(1)

any jurisdiction (other than the United States or any political subdivision or governmental authority thereof or therein having power to tax) from or through which payment on the notes or any guarantee of the notes is made by or on behalf of ~~such~~anon-U.S. Payor, or any political subdivision or governmental authority thereof or therein having the power to tax; or

(2)

any jurisdiction (other than the United States or any political subdivision or governmental authority thereof or therein having the power to tax) in which anon-U.S. Payor that actually makes a payment on the notes or its guarantee of the notes is organized or otherwise considered to be a resident for tax purposes, or any political subdivision or governmental authority thereof or therein having the power to tax

(each of clauses (1) and (2), a “Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction”), will at any time be required from any payments made with respect to the notes or any guarantee of the notes, including payments of principal, redemption price, interest or premium, if any, thenon-U.S. Payor will pay (together with such payments) such additional amounts (the “Additional Amounts”) as may be necessary in order that the net amounts received in

respect of such payments by the holder after such withholding or deduction (including any such deduction or withholding from such Additional Amounts), will not be less than the amounts that would have been received in respect of such payments on the notes or the guarantees of the notes in the absence of such withholding or deduction;provided,however, that no such Additional Amounts will be payable for or on account of:

(1)

any Taxes that would not have been so imposed or levied but for the existence of any present or former connection between the relevant holder (or between a fiduciary, settlor, beneficiary, partner, member or shareholder of, or possessor of power over, the relevant holder, if such holder is an estate, nominee, trust, partnership, limited liability company or corporation) and the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction (including being a citizen or resident or national of, or carrying on a business or maintaining a permanent establishment in, or being physically present in, the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction) but excluding, in each case, any connection arising solely from the acquisition, ownership or holding of such notes or any guarantee of the notes or the enforcement or receipt of any payment in respect thereof;

(2)

any Taxes that would not have been so imposed or levied if the holder of the note had complied with a reasonable request in writing of thenon-U.S. Payor (such request being made at a time that would enable such holder acting reasonably to comply with that request) to make a declaration of nonresidence or any other claim or filing or satisfy any certification, identification, information or reporting requirement for

exemption from, or reduction in the rate of, withholding to which it is entitled (providedthat such declaration of nonresidence or other claim, filing or requirement is required by the applicable law, treaty, regulation or official administrative practice of the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction as a precondition to exemption from, or reduction in the rate of deduction or withholding of, any such Taxes);

(3)

any Taxes that are payable otherwise than by withholding from a payment on or with respect to the notes or any guarantee of the notes;

(4)

any estate, inheritance, gift, sales, excise, transfer, personal property or similar Taxes;

(5)

any Taxes imposed in connection with a note presented for payment (where presentation is required for payment) by or on behalf of a holder or beneficial owner who would have been able to avoid such Tax by presenting the relevant note to, or otherwise accepting payment from, another paying agent;

(6)

any Taxes payable under Sections 1471 through 1474 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), as of the date of the applicable offering memorandum (or any amended or successor version that is substantively comparable and not materially more onerous to comply with), any current or future regulations or official interpretations thereof, any agreements entered into pursuant thereto, and any intergovernmental agreements implementing the foregoing (including any legislation or other official guidance relating to such intergovernmental agreements); or

(7)

any combination of the above.

Such Additional Amounts will also not be payable (x) if the payment could have been made without such deduction or withholding if the beneficiary of the payment had presented the note for payment (where presentation is required) within 30 days after the relevant payment was due and first made available for payment to the holder (providedthat notice of such payment is given to the holders), except to the extent that the holder or beneficial owner or other such person would have been entitled to Additional Amounts on presenting the note for payment on any date during such30-day period or (y) where, had the beneficial owner of the note been the holder of the note, such beneficial owner would not have been entitled to payment of Additional Amounts by reason of any of clauses (1) to (7) inclusive above.

Thenon-U.S. Payors will (i) make or cause to be made any required withholding or deduction and (ii) remit or cause to be remitted the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant taxing authority of the Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction in accordance with applicable law. Thenon-U.S. Payors will use reasonable efforts to obtain

certified copies of tax receipts evidencing the payment of any Taxes so deducted or withheld from each relevant taxing authority of each Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction imposing such Taxes and will provide such certified copies to the trustee and the holders. If, notwithstanding the efforts of suchnon-U.S. Payors to obtain such receipts, the same are not obtainable, suchnon-U.S. Payors will provide the trustee and the holders with other reasonable evidence.

If anynon-U.S. Payor will be obligated to pay Additional Amounts under or with respect to any payment made on the notes, at least 30 days prior to the date of such payment, thenon-U.S. Payor will deliver to the trustee an officer’s certificate stating the fact that Additional Amounts will be payable and the amount so payable and such other information necessary to enable the paying agent to pay Additional Amounts to holders on the relevant payment date (unless such obligation to pay Additional Amounts arises less than 45 days prior to the relevant payment date, in which case thenon-U.S. Payor shall deliver such officer’s certificate and such other information as promptly as practicable after the date that is 30 days prior to the payment date). The trustee shall be entitled to rely solely on such officer’s certificate as conclusive proof that such payments are necessary.

Wherever in the indentures, the notes, any guarantee of the notes or this “Description of Notes” there is mention of, in any context:

(1)

the payment of principal;

(2)

redemption prices or purchase prices in connection with a redemption or purchase of notes;

(3)

interest; or

(4)

any other amount payable on or with respect to any of the notes or any guarantee of the notes;

such reference shall be deemed to include payment of Additional Amounts as described under this heading to the extent that, in such context, Additional Amounts are, were or would be payable in respect thereof.

Thenon-U.S. Payors will pay any present or future stamp, court or documentary Taxes, or any other excise, property or similar Taxes that arise in any Relevant Taxing Jurisdiction from the execution, delivery, issuance, initial resale, registration or enforcement of any notes, the indentures or any other document or instrument in relation thereto (other than a transfer of the notes). The foregoing obligations will survive any termination, defeasance or discharge of the indentures and will applymutatis mutandisto any jurisdiction in which any successor to anon-U.S. Payor is organized or otherwise considered to be a resident for tax purposes or any political subdivision or taxing authority or agency thereof or therein.

~~Agreed Tax Treatment~~

~~The portion, if any, of the proceeds of each series of notes that was borrowed by Broadcom Corporation (the “U.S.Co-Issuer”)~~ ~~and the portion, if any, of the proceeds of each series of notes that was borrowed by Cayman Finance (the “CaymanCo-Issuer”),~~ in each case, on the issue date of such series, have been posted at http://investors.broadcom.com/phoenix.zhtml?c=203541&p=irol-taxinformation. Each Issuer intends to repay the interest and principal associated with the proceeds it borrowed on each issue date. Although the notes (and the corresponding exchange notes) are~~co-issued~~ ~~by the U.S.Co-Issuer~~ ~~and the CaymanCo-Issuer~~ and, therefore, each Issuer is liable for repayment of the notes (and the corresponding exchange notes) in their entirety, for tax purposes the Issuers agree, and by acquiring an interest in the exchange notes each holder of a note agrees, to treat for U.S. federal income tax purposes the U.S.~~Co-Issuer~~ ~~and the CaymanCo-Issuer,~~ respectively, as the issuer of only the portion, if any, of the debt borrowed by each such Issuer on the applicable issue date. Any future changes to such allocation shall promptly be posted in the same manner. In addition, we intend to treat each Issuer as paying the interest and principal due on the portion that it borrowed.

Purchase of Notes upon a Change of Control Triggering Event

Upon the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event, unless we have exercised our option to redeem the notes as described above under “—Optional Redemption” or “—Redemption for Taxation Reasons” each holder of notes will have the right to require that we purchase all or a portion (equal to $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof) of such holder’s notes pursuant to the offer described below (the “Change of Control Offer”), at a purchase price equal to 101% of the aggregate principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the date of purchase (the “Change of Control Payment”), subject to the rights of holders of notes on the relevant record date to receive interest due on the relevant interest payment date.

Within 30 days following the date upon which the Change of Control Triggering Event occurred or, at our option, prior to and conditioned on the occurrence of, any Change of Control, but after public announcement of the transaction that constitutes or may constitute the Change of Control, we must deliver a notice to each holder of notes, with a copy to the trustee, which notice shall govern the terms of the Change of Control Offer. Such notice shall state, among other things, the purchase date, which must be no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is sent and, if the notice is sent prior to the Change of Control, no earlier than the date of the occurrence of the Change of Control, other than as may be required by law (the “Change of Control

Payment Date”). The notice will, if sent prior to the date of consummation of the Change of Control, state that the Change of Control Offer is conditioned on the Change of Control Triggering Event occurring on or prior to the Change of Control Payment Date. Holders of definitive notes electing to have a note purchased pursuant to a Change of Control Offer will be required to surrender the note, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” on the reverse of the note completed, to the paying agent at the address specified in the notice. Holders

of global notes must transfer their notes to the paying agent by book-entry transfer pursuant to the applicable procedures of the paying agent and DTC (in the case of global notes), in each case prior to the close of business on the third Business Day prior to the Change of Control Payment Date.

Our ability to pay cash to the holders of notes following the occurrence of a Change of Control Triggering Event may be limited by our then-existing financial resources and, accordingly, sufficient funds may not be available when necessary to make any required purchases.

We will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer if a third party makes such an offer in the manner and at the times required and otherwise in compliance with the requirements applicable to such an offer had it been made by us, and such third party purchases all notes properly tendered and not withdrawn under its offer. In addition, we may not repurchase any notes if there has occurred and is continuing on the Change of Control Payment Date an event of default under the indentures, other than a default in the payment of the Change of Control Payment upon a Change of Control Triggering Event.

We will comply with the requirements of Rule14e-1 under the Exchange Act, and any other securities laws and regulations thereunder to the extent such laws and regulations are applicable in connection with the purchase of notes pursuant to a Change of Control Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any such securities laws or regulations conflict with the “Change of Control Triggering Event” provisions of the indentures, we will comply with those securities laws and regulations and shall not be deemed to have breached our obligations under the “Change of Control Triggering Event” provisions of the indentures by virtue of any such conflict.

For the purposes of determining compliance with this covenant, in the event that any Secured Debt meets the criteria of more than one of the types of Secured Debt described above, ~~Broadcom Parent,~~the Issuer, in its sole discretion, will classify such Secured Debt and only be required to include the amount and type of such Secured Debt in one of clauses (1) through (9) above or under the provision described in “—Exempted Indebtedness” below, and Secured Debt may be divided and classified at the time of incurrence into more than one of the types of Secured Debt described above or under the provision described in “—Exempted Indebtedness” below.

Limitation on Sale and Lease-Back Transactions

~~Broadcom Parent~~The Issuer will not (nor will ~~Broadcom Parent~~the Issuer permit any of its subsidiaries to) enter into any sale and lease-back transaction for the sale and leasing back of any Principal Property (a “Sale and Lease-Back Transaction”), whether now owned or hereafter acquired, of ~~Broadcom Parent~~the Issuer or any subsidiary of ~~Broadcom Parent,~~the Issuer, unless:

(5)

~~Broadcom Parent~~

the Issuer applies an amount equal to the fair market value of the Principal Property sold, within 180 days of such sale and lease-back transaction, to any of (or a combination of) (a) the prepayment or retirement of the notes, (b) the prepayment or retirement of Indebtedness for borrowed money of ~~Broadcom Parent~~the Issuer or a subsidiary of ~~Broadcom Parent~~the Issuer (other than Indebtedness that is contractually subordinated to the notes) or (c) the purchase, construction, development, expansion or improvement of Principal Property.

Exempted Indebtedness

Notwithstanding the limitations on Secured Debt and Sale and Lease-Back Transactions described above, ~~Broadcom Parent~~the Issuer and any one or more of its subsidiaries may, without securing the notes, issue, assume, or guarantee Secured Debt or enter into any Sale and Lease-Back Transaction that would otherwise be subject to the foregoing restrictions, provided that, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate amount of such Secured Debt then outstanding ~~(not including~~(other than Secured Debt permitted under the foregoing exceptions) and the Attributable Liens of Sale and Lease-Back Transactions, other than Sale and Lease-Back Transactions described in the preceding paragraph, at such time does not exceed the greater of (i) 15% of the Consolidated Net Tangible Assets of ~~Broadcom Parent~~the Issuer calculated as of the date of the creation or incurrence of such Secured Debt or Sale and Lease-Back Transactions and (ii) ~~$1.25 billion~~$1,750 million (in the case of ~~the January indenture) or $1.75 billion (in the case~~each of the ~~October~~April 2019 indenture, the April 2020 indenture, the May 2020 indenture or the June 2020 indenture), in each case after giving effect to such incurrence and the application of the proceeds therefrom.

Limitation on Mergers and Other Transactions

None of the Obligors may consolidate with or merge with or into, or convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all of its properties and assets to, any person, which we refer to as a “successor person,” unless:

(1)

such Obligor is the surviving person or the successor person (if other than an Obligor) is a person organized and validly existing under the laws of any U.S. domestic jurisdiction, any current or former

member state of the European Union, Canada or any province of Canada, the United Kingdom, Switzerland, the Republic of Singapore, Bermuda or the Cayman Islands and expressly assumes by supplemental indenture such Obligor’s obligations on the notes and under the ~~indentures;~~indentures (any such transaction resulting in an entity organized or existing under the laws of any jurisdiction other than a U.S. domestic jurisdiction, a“Non-U.S. Domicile Transaction”);

(2)

immediately after giving effect to the transaction, no default or event of default shall have occurred and be continuing under the indentures; and

Documents filed by us with the SEC via the EDGAR system (or any successor thereto) will be deemed to be delivered to the trustee as of the time such documents are filed via EDGAR, it being understood that the trustee shall not be responsible for determining whether such filings have been made. Delivery of the information, documents and other reports described above to the trustee is for informational purposes only, and the trustee’s receipt of such shall not constitute constructive notice of any information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the Obligors’ compliance with any of the covenants under the indentures (as to which the trustee is entitled to conclusively rely on an officer’s certificate).

So long as an Obligor complies with, or would comply with, the requirements of Rule~~3-10~~13-01 of RegulationS-X promulgated by the SEC (or any successor provision), the reports, information and other documents required to be filed and furnished to holders of the notes pursuant to this covenant may, at the option of the ~~Issuers,~~Issuer, be filed by and be those of such Obligor rather than ~~Broadcom Parent.~~the Issuer.

Certain Definitions

As used in this section, the following terms have the meanings set forth below.

“Attributable Liens” means, in connection with a Sale and Lease-Back Transaction, the lesser of:

(1)

the fair market value of the assets subject to such transaction (as determined in good faith by the board of directors of ~~Broadcom Parent~~the Issuer or a committee thereof); and

(2)

the present value (discounted at a rate per annum equal to the average interest borne by all outstanding debt securities issued under the indentures (which may include debt securities in addition to the notes) determined on a weighted average basis and compounded semi-annually) of the obligations of the lessee for rental payments during the term of the related lease.

“Capital Lease” means any Indebtedness represented by a lease obligation of a person incurred with respect to real property or equipment acquired or leased by such person and used in its business that is required to be recorded as a capital lease in accordance with GAAP.

“Consolidated Net Tangible Assets” of any specified person means, as of any date on which we effect a transaction requiring such Consolidated Net Tangible Assets to be measured hereunder, the aggregate amount of all assets of such person and its subsidiaries on a consolidated basis (less applicable reserves) after deducting therefrom: (a) all current liabilities, except for current maturities of long-term debt and obligations under Capital Leases; and (b) intangible assets, to the extent included in said aggregate amount of assets, as of the end of our most recently completed accounting period for which financial statements are then available and computed in accordance with GAAP applied on a consistent basis.

“GAAP” means accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America set forth in the opinions and pronouncements of the Accounting Principles Board of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants and statements and pronouncements of the Financial Accounting Standards Board or in such other statements by such other entity as have been approved by a significant segment of the accounting profession, which are in effect as of the issue date.

“Indebtedness” of any specified person means, without duplication, any indebtedness in respect of borrowed money or that is evidenced by bonds, notes, debentures or similar instruments or letters of credit (or reimbursement agreements with respect thereto (other than obligations with respect to letters of credit securing obligations entered into in the ordinary course of business of such person to the extent such letters of credit are not drawn upon or, if and to the extent drawn upon, such drawing is reimbursed no later than the fifth business day following receipt by such person of a demand for reimbursement following payment on the letter of credit)) or representing the balance deferred and unpaid of the purchase price of any Property (including pursuant to Capital Leases), except any such balance that constitutes an accrued expense or trade payable, if and to the extent any of the foregoing indebtedness would appear as a liability upon a balance sheet of such person prepared in accordance with GAAP (but does not include contingent liabilities which appear only in a footnote to a balance sheet). In addition, the term “Indebtedness” includes all of the following items, whether or not any such items would appear as a liability on a balance sheet of the specified person in accordance with GAAP:

(1)

all Indebtedness of others secured by a lien on any asset of the specified person (whether or not such Indebtedness is assumed by the specified person); and

(2)

to the extent not otherwise included, any guarantee by the specified person of Indebtedness of any other person.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the term “Indebtedness” excludes any indebtedness of ~~Broadcom Parent~~the Issuer or any of ~~Broadcom Parent’s~~the Issuer’s subsidiaries to ~~Broadcom Parent~~the Issuer or a subsidiary of ~~Broadcom Parent.~~the Issuer.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the land, improvements, buildings, fixtures and/or equipment (including any leasehold interest therein) constituting (i) the principal corporate offices or primary campuses of ~~Broadcom Parent~~the Issuer (whether owned or leased by ~~Broadcom Parent~~the Issuer or a ~~wholly-owned~~wholly- owned subsidiary of ~~Broadcom Parent)~~the Issuer) and (ii) the office campus located in Irvine, California, in each case shall not constitute Principal Property.

“Property” means any property or asset, whether real, personal or mixed, or tangible or intangible, including shares of capital stock.

“Secured Debt” means indebtedness for borrowed money that is secured by a security interest in any Principal Property.

Events of Default

Each of the following is an “event of default” with respect to the notes:

(1)

default in the payment of any interest, including any additional interest, on the notes of such series when it becomes due and payable, and continuance of that default for a period of 30 days (unless the entire amount of such payment is deposited by us with the trustee or with a paying agent prior to the expiration of such30-day period);

(2)

default in the payment of principal of the notes of such series when due and payable;

(3)

default in the performance or breach of any other covenant or warranty by us in the indentures (other than a covenant or warranty that has been included in the indentures solely for the benefit of a series of debt securities other than the notes of such series), which default continues uncured for a period of

60 days after we receive written notice from the trustee or we and the trustee receive written notice from the holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the outstanding notes of such series as provided in the indentures;

(4)

certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the ~~Issuers~~Issuer or ~~Broadcom Parent;~~any Guarantor; and

(5)

except as permitted under the indentures, any Guarantee ~~(other than the guarantee by Broadcom Cayman L.P.)~~ shall for any reason cease to exist or shall not be in full force and effect and enforceable in accordance with its terms.

No event of default with respect to a series of notes (except as to certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization) necessarily constitutes an event of default with respect to any other series of debt securities. The occurrence of an event of default may constitute an event of default under any bank credit agreements that may be in existence from time to time. In addition, the occurrence of certain events of default or acceleration under the indentures may constitute an event of default under certain of the Obligors’ other indebtedness that may be outstanding from time to time.

If an event of default with respect to a series of notes occurs and is continuing (other than an event of default regarding certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the ~~Issuers~~Issuer or ~~Broadcom Parent)~~Guarantors), then the trustee or the holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the outstanding notes of that series may declare the principal amount of and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all notes of that series to be due and payable immediately, by a notice in writing to us (and to the trustee if given by the holders), and upon such declaration such principal amount and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, shall become immediately due and payable. In the case of an event of default resulting from certain events of bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization of the ~~Issuers~~Issuer or ~~Broadcom Parent,~~the Guarantors, the principal of and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on all outstanding notes will become and be immediately due and payable without any declaration or other act on the part of the trustee or any holder of outstanding notes. At any time after such a declaration of acceleration with respect to a series of notes has been made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the trustee as provided in the indentures, the holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding notes of that series, by written notice to us and the trustee, may rescind and annul such a declaration and its consequences if all events of default with respect to the notes of that series, other than thenon-payment of accelerated principal and interest, if any, with respect to the notes of that series, have been cured or waived as provided in the indentures.

The indentures provide that the trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by the indentures at the request or direction of any of the holders of notes, unless such holders have offered (and if requested, provided) the trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to the trustee against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction. Subject to certain rights of the trustee, the holders of a majority in principal amount of the notes of the affected series shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred on the trustee, with respect to the notes of such series.

No holder of any note of any series has any right to institute any proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to the indentures, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any remedy under the indentures, unless:

that holder has previously given written notice to the trustee of a continuing event of default with respect to the notes of that series; and

the holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the notes of that series shall have made written request to the trustee, and offered (and if requested, provided) indemnity or security satisfactory to the trustee, to institute proceedings in respect of such event of default in its own name as trustee under the indentures, and the trustee has not received from the holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding notes of that series a direction inconsistent with such written request and has failed to institute such proceeding within 60 days after receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity or security.

trustee, to institute proceedings in respect of such event of default in its own name as trustee under the indentures, and the trustee has not received from the holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding notes of that series a direction inconsistent with such written request and has failed to institute such proceeding within 60 days after receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity or security.

The indentures require us, within 120 days after the end of ~~Cayman Finance’s~~the Issuer’s fiscal year, to furnish to the trustee a statement as to compliance with the indentures. The indentures provide that the trustee may withhold notice to the holders of the notes of any default or event of default (except in payment on any notes of that series) with respect to notes of that series if it in good faith determines that withholding notice is in the interest of the holders of those notes.

Modification and Waiver

Except as described below, we may modify and amend the indentures and the notes only with the consent of the holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the notes of a series. We may not make any modification or amendment without the consent of each holder of each affected series of notes issued under the indentures then outstanding if that amendment will:

reduce the principal amount of notes of a series whose holders must consent to an amendment or waiver;

reduce the rate of or extend the time for payment of interest (including default interest) on any note;

reduce the principal of or premium on or change the fixed maturity of any note;

waive a default in the payment of the principal of, or premium and interest on, any note (except a rescission of acceleration of notes by the holders of at least a majority in aggregate principal amount of the notes and a waiver of the payment default that resulted from such acceleration);

make the principal of, or premium and interest on, any note payable in currency other than U.S. dollars;

amend the contractual right to institute suit for the enforcement of any payment of the principal of, and premium and interest (including Additional Amounts) on, the notes on or after the due dates expressed or provided for in such notes;

make any change to the provisions relating to waivers or amendments;

waive a redemption payment with respect to any note; provided that such redemption is made at our option;

make any change to the provisions relating to the guarantee by ~~Broadcom Parent~~the Guarantors in any manner adverse to the holders of the notes; or

make any change in the provisions of the indentures described under “—Additional Amounts” that adversely affects the right of any holder of such notes or amends the terms of such notes in a way that would result in a loss of an exemption from any of the Taxes described thereunder or an exemption from any obligation to withhold or deduct Taxes so described thereunder unless thenon-U.S. Payor agrees to pay Additional Amounts, if any, in respect thereof.

Except for certain specified provisions, the holders of at least a majority in principal amount of the notes of a series may on behalf of the holders of all notes of such series waive our compliance with provisions of the indentures. The holders of a majority in principal amount of the notes may on behalf of the holders of all notes waive any past default under the indentures with respect to the notes and its consequences, except a default in the payment of the principal of, or premium and any interest on, the notes;provided, however,that the holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding notes of a series may rescind an acceleration and its consequences, including any related payment default that resulted from the acceleration.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, without the consent of any holder of notes, we and the trustee may modify and amend the indentures or the notes to:

cure any ambiguity, to correct any mistake, to correct or supplement any provision in the indentures that may be defective or inconsistent with any other provision in the indentures, or to make other provisions in regard to matters or questions arising under the indentures;

evidence that another person has become a successor of an Obligor and that the successor assumes such Obligor’s covenants, agreements, and obligations in the indentures and in the notes in accordance with the indentures;

surrender any of the Obligors’ rights or powers under the indentures, including the removal of all or any portion of the guarantee release provisions with respect to Broadcom Cayman L.P. described under the third paragraph of the section above under “—Guarantees”, or add to the Obligors’ covenants further covenants for the protection of the holders of all or any series of notes;

add any additional events of default for the benefit of the holders of all or any series of notes;

conform any provision in the indentures to this “Description of Notes;”

secure the notes;

provide for uncertificated notes in addition to or in place of certificated ~~notes;~~notes (provided, that the uncertificated notes are issued in registered form for purposes of Section 163(f) of the Code);

make any change that does not adversely affect the rights of any holder of notes;

evidence and provide for the acceptance of appointment of a successor trustee with respect to the notes and add to or change any provisions of the indentures as necessary to provide for or facilitate the administration of the trusts under the indentures by more than one trustee; or

comply with the requirements of the SEC in order to effect or maintain the qualification of the indentures under the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the “Trust Indenture Act”).

Defeasance and Discharge

Legal Defeasance. The indentures provide that we may be discharged from any and all obligations in respect of the notes (except for certain obligations to register the transfer or exchange of the notes, to replace stolen, lost or mutilated notes, and to maintain paying agencies and certain provisions relating to the treatment of funds held by paying agents). We will be so discharged upon the deposit with the trustee, in trust, of money and/or U.S. government obligations that, through the payment of interest and principal in accordance with their terms, will provide money in an amount sufficient in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants to pay and discharge each installment of principal, premium and interest on and any mandatory sinking fund payments in respect of the notes on the stated maturity of those payments in accordance with the terms of the indentures and the notes.

This discharge may occur only if, among other things, we have delivered to the trustee an opinion of counsel stating that we have received from, or there has been published by, the U.S. Internal Revenue Service a ruling or, since the date of execution of the indentures, there has been a change in the applicable U.S. federal income tax law, in either case to the effect that, and based thereon such opinion shall confirm that, the holders and beneficial owners of the notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of the deposit, defeasance and discharge and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts and in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if the deposit, defeasance and discharge had not occurred.

Defeasance of Certain Covenants. The indentures provide that upon compliance with certain conditions:

we may omit to comply with most covenants set forth in the indentures; and

~~��~~

~~any omission to comply with those covenants will not constitute a default or an event of default with respect to the notes, or covenant defeasance.~~

any omission to comply with those covenants will not constitute a default or an event of default with respect to the notes, or covenant defeasance.

The conditions include:

depositing with the trustee money and/or U.S. government obligations that, through the payment of interest and principal in accordance with their terms, will provide money in an amount sufficient in the opinion of a nationally recognized firm of independent public accountants to pay and discharge each installment of principal of, premium and interest on and any mandatory sinking fund payments in respect of the notes on the stated maturity of those payments in accordance with the terms of the indentures and the notes; and

delivering to the trustee an opinion of counsel to the effect that the holders and beneficial owners of the notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a result of the deposit and related covenant defeasance and will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on the same amounts and in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if the deposit and related covenant defeasance had not occurred.

Satisfaction and Discharge

The indentures will be discharged and cease to be of any further effect (except as to the surviving rights of the trustee and the ~~Issuers’~~Issuer’s obligations in connection therewith and of registration or exchange of notes, as expressly provided for in the indentures) as to all outstanding notes of any series if:

we have delivered to the trustee for cancellation all notes of that series (with certain limited exceptions); or

all notes of that series not previously delivered to the trustee for cancellation have become due and payable, will become due and payable within one year, or are to be called for redemption within one year under arrangements satisfactory to the trustee, and in any such case we have deposited with the trustee as trust funds the entire amount sufficient to pay at maturity or upon redemption all of the principal, premium and interest due with respect to those notes;

and if, in either case, we also pay or cause to be paid all other sums payable under the indentures by us and deliver to the trustee an officer’s certificate and opinion of counsel stating that all conditions precedent to the satisfaction and discharge of the indentures have been complied with.

Book-Entry, Delivery and Form

The notes are issued in registered, global form in minimum denominations of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. Notes were issued only against payment in immediately available funds.

The global notes were deposited upon issuance with the trustee as custodian for DTC, and registered in the name of DTC or its nominee in each case for credit to an account of a direct or indirect participant in DTC as described below. Global notes may be transferred, in whole and not in part, only to another nominee of DTC or to a successor of DTC or its nominee.

Beneficial interests in the global notes may be held through the Euroclear System (“Euroclear”) and Clearstream Banking, S.A. (“Clearstream”) (as indirect participants in DTC). Beneficial interests in the global notes may not be exchanged for notes in certificated form (“certificated notes”) except in the limited circumstances described below. See “—Exchange of Global Notes for Certificated Notes.”

Transfers of beneficial interests in the global notes will be subject to the applicable rules and procedures of DTC and its direct or indirect participants (including, if applicable, those of Euroclear and Clearstream), which may change from time to time.

Exchange of Global Notes for Certificated Notes

The global notes are exchangeable for certificated notes in definitive, fully registered form without interest coupons only in the following limited circumstances:

DTC (1) notifies us that it is unwilling or unable to act as a depositary for such global note or (2) ceases to be a clearing agency registered under the Exchange Act, and, in either case, we fail to appoint a successor depositary registered as a clearing agency under the Exchange Act within 90 days; or

we, at our option, notify the trustee in writing that we elect to cause the issuance of the certificated notes.

In all cases, certificated notes delivered in exchange for any global notes or beneficial interests therein will be registered in such names as DTC shall direct in writing in an aggregate principal amount equal to the principal amount of the global notes with like tenor and terms.

Depositary Procedures

The following description of the operations and procedures of DTC, Euroclear and Clearstream are provided solely as a matter of convenience. These operations and procedures are solely within the control of the respective settlement systems and are subject to changes by them. We do not take any responsibility for these operations and procedures and urge investors to contact the system or their participants directly to discuss these matters.

DTC has advised us that DTC is a limited-purpose trust company created to hold securities for its participating organizations (collectively, the “Participants”) and to facilitate the clearance and settlement of transactions in those securities between the Participants through electronic book-entry changes in accounts of its Participants. The Participants include securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations and certain other organizations. Access to DTC’s system is also available to other entities such as banks, brokers, dealers and trust companies that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a Participant, either directly or indirectly (collectively, the “Indirect Participants”). Persons who are not Participants may beneficially own securities held by or on behalf of DTC only through the Participants or the Indirect Participants. The ownership interests in, and transfers of ownership interests in, each security held by or on behalf of DTC are recorded on the records of the Participants and Indirect Participants.

DTC has also advised us that, pursuant to procedures established by it:

upon deposit of the global notes, DTC will credit the accounts of the Participants designated by the trustee with portions of the principal amount of the global notes; and

ownership of these interests in the global notes will be shown on, and the transfer of ownership of these interests will be effected only through, records maintained by DTC (with respect to the Participants) or by the Participants and the Indirect Participants (with respect to other owners of beneficial interest in the global notes).

Investors in the global notes who are Participants may hold their interests therein directly through DTC. Investors in the global notes who are not Participants may hold their interests therein indirectly through organizations (including Euroclear and Clearstream) that are Participants in such system. Euroclear and Clearstream will hold interests in the global notes on behalf of their participants through customers’ securities accounts in their respective names on the books of their respective depositories, which are Euroclear Bank S.A./N.V., as operator of Euroclear, and Citibank, N.A., as operator of Clearstream. All interests in a global note, including those held through Euroclear or Clearstream, may be subject to the procedures and requirements of DTC.

Those interests held through Euroclear or Clearstream may also be subject to the procedures and requirements of such systems.

The laws of some states require that certain persons take physical delivery in definitive form of securities that they own. Consequently, the ability to transfer beneficial interests in a global note to such persons will be limited to that extent. Because DTC can act only on behalf of the Participants, which in turn act on behalf of the Indirect Participants, the ability of a person having beneficial interests in a global note to pledge such interests to persons that do not participate in the DTC system, or otherwise take actions in respect of such interests, may be affected by the lack of a physical certificate evidencing such interests.

Except as described above, owners of beneficial interests in the global notes will not have notes registered in their names, will not receive physical delivery of notes in certificated form and will not be considered the registered owners or “Holders” thereof under the indentures for any purpose.

Payments in respect of the principal of, and interest, additional interest and premium, if any, on a global note registered in the name of DTC or its nominee will be payable to DTC in its capacity as the registered holder of the notes under the indentures. Under the terms of the indentures, we and the trustee will treat the persons in whose names the notes, including the global notes, are registered as the owners of the notes for the purpose of receiving payments and for all other purposes. Consequently, neither we nor the trustee nor any of our respective agents has or will have any responsibility or liability for:

any aspect of DTC’s records or any Participant’s or Indirect Participant’s records relating to, or payments made on account of, beneficial ownership interests in the global notes or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any of DTC’s records or any Participant’s or Indirect Participant’s records relating to the beneficial ownership interests in the global notes; or

any other matter relating to the actions and practices of DTC or any of its Participants or Indirect Participants.

DTC has advised us that its current practice, upon receipt of any payment in respect of securities such as the notes (including principal and interest), is to credit the accounts of the relevant Participants with the payment on the payment date unless DTC has reason to believe it will not receive payment on such payment date. Each relevant Participant is credited with an amount proportionate to its beneficial ownership of an interest in the principal amount of the relevant security as shown on the records of DTC. Payments by the Participants and the Indirect Participants to the beneficial owners of notes will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices and will be the responsibility of the Participants or the Indirect Participants and will not be the responsibility of DTC, the trustee or us. Neither we nor the trustee will be liable for any delay by DTC or any of the Participants or the Indirect Participants in identifying the beneficial owners of the notes, and we and the trustee may conclusively rely on and will be protected in relying on instructions from DTC or its nominee for all purposes.

Transfers between the Participants will be effected in accordance with DTC’s procedures and will be settled insame-day funds, and transfers between participants in Euroclear and Clearstream will be effected in accordance with their respective rules and operating procedures.

Cross-market transfers between the Participants in DTC, on the one hand, and Euroclear or Clearstream participants, on the other hand, will be effected through DTC in accordance with DTC’s rules on behalf of Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, by their respective depositary; however, such cross-market transactions will require delivery of instructions to Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, by the counterparty in such system in accordance with the rules and procedures and within the established deadlines (Brussels time) of such system. Euroclear or Clearstream, as the case may be, will, if the transaction meets its settlement requirements, deliver instructions to its respective depositary to take action to effect final settlement on its behalf by delivering or receiving interests in the relevant global note in DTC, and making or receiving payment in accordance with normal procedures forsame-day funds settlement applicable to DTC. Euroclear participants and Clearstream participants may not deliver instructions directly to the depositories for Euroclear or Clearstream.

DTC has advised us that it will take any action permitted to be taken by a holder of notes only at the direction of one or more Participants to whose account DTC has credited the interests in the global notes and only in respect of such portion of the aggregate principal amount of the notes as to which such Participant or Participants has or have given such direction. However, if there is an event of default under the notes, DTC reserves the right to exchange the global notes for certificated notes, and to distribute such notes to the Participants.

Although DTC, Euroclear and Clearstream have agreed to the foregoing procedures to facilitate transfers of interests in the global notes among participants in DTC, Euroclear and Clearstream, they are under no obligation to perform or to continue to perform such procedures, and may discontinue such procedures at any time. Neither we nor the trustee nor any of our respective agents (including, without limitation, the exchange agent) will have any responsibility for the performance by DTC, Euroclear or Clearstream or their respective participants or indirect participants of their respective obligations under the rules and procedures governing their operations.

Payment and Paying Agents

Payments on the global notes will be made in U.S. dollars by wire transfer. If we issue definitive notes, the holders of definitive notes will be able to receive payments of principal of and interest on their notes at the office of our paying agent. Payment of principal of a definitive note may be made only against surrender of the note to our paying agent. We have the option, however, of making payments of interest by wire transfer or by mailing checks to the address of the holder appearing in the register of note holders maintained by the registrar.

We will make any required interest payments to the person in whose name a note is registered at the close of business on the record date for the interest payment.

The trustee will be designated as our paying agent for payments on the notes. We may from time to time designate additional paying agents, rescind the designation of any paying agent or approve a change in the office through which any paying agent acts.

Notices

Any notices required to be given to the holders of the notes will be given to DTC, as the registered holder of the global notes. In the event that the global notes are exchanged for notes in definitive form, notices to holders of the notes will be delivered to the addresses that appear on the register of noteholders maintained by the registrar.

The Trustee

The trustee’s current address is Wilmington Trust, National Association, ~~246 Goose Lane,~~50 South Sixth Street, Suite ~~105, Guilford, Connecticut 06437,~~1290, Minneapolis, Minnesota 55402, Attn: Broadcom ~~Corporation~~Inc. Administrator.

The indentures provide that, except during the continuance of an event of default, the trustee will perform only those duties that are specifically set forth in the indentures and no others. If an event of default has occurred and is continuing, the trustee shall exercise the rights and powers vested in it by the indentures and use the same degree of care and skill in its exercise as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs.

The indentures and provisions of the Trust Indenture Act, incorporated by reference in the indentures contain limitations on the rights of the trustee, should it become our creditor, to obtain payment of claims in certain cases or to liquidate certain property received by it in respect of any such claim as security or otherwise. The trustee is permitted to engage in other transactions with us or any of our affiliates. If the trustee acquires any conflicting interest (as defined in the indentures or in the Trust Indenture Act), it must eliminate that conflict or resign.

Governing Law

The indentures and the notes, including any claim or controversy arising out of or relating to the indentures or the notes, are governed by the laws of the State of New York.

~~LIMITATIONS ON VALIDITY AND ENFORCEABILITY OF THE GUARANTEES~~

Set forth below is a summary of certain limitations on the enforceability of the guarantees in each of the jurisdictions in which guarantees are being provided. It is a summary only, and proceedings of bankruptcy, insolvency or a similar event could be initiated in any of these jurisdictions and in the jurisdiction of organization of a future guarantor of the notes. The application of these various laws in multiple jurisdictions could trigger disputes over which jurisdiction’s law should apply, and could adversely affect your ability to enforce your rights and to collect payment in full under the notes and the guarantees.

Also set out below is a brief description of certain aspects of insolvency law, in force as of the date hereof, in the Cayman Islands and Singapore. In the event that any one or more of the Guarantors experiences financial difficulty, it is not possible to predict with certainty in which jurisdiction or jurisdictions insolvency or similar proceedings would be commenced, or the outcome of such proceedings.

~~Cayman Islands~~

Cayman Finance is an exempted company incorporated with limited liability under the laws of the Cayman Islands, and Broadcom Cayman L.P. is an exempted limited partnership registered under the laws of the Cayman Islands.

Enforcement of the obligations of each of Cayman Finance and Broadcom Cayman L.P. as a Guarantor, may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, reorganization, readjustment of debts or moratorium and other laws of general application relating to or affecting the rights of creditors or by prescription or lapse of time.

~~Voidable Preferences~~

Every conveyance or transfer of property, or charge thereon, and every payment obligation and judicial proceeding, made, incurred, taken or suffered by a Cayman Islands company in favor of any creditor at a time when the Cayman Islands company was unable to pay its debts within the meaning of Section 93 of the Companies Law (2016 Revision) (the “Cayman Companies Law”), with a view to giving such creditor a preference over the other creditors of the Cayman Islands company, would be invalid pursuant to Section 145(1) of the Cayman Companies Law, if made, incurred, taken or suffered within the six months preceding the commencement of a liquidation of the Cayman Islands company.

Such actions will be deemed to have been made with a view to giving such creditor a preference if such creditor is a “related party” of the Cayman Islands company. A creditor shall be treated as a related party if it has the ability to control the Cayman Islands company or exercise significant influence over the Cayman Islands company in making financial and operating decisions.

~~The concept of a “conveyance” has a wide meaning and these provisions could potentially impact on a wide range of transactions.~~

~~Dispositions at an Undervalue~~

Any disposition of property made below market value by or on behalf of the Cayman Islands company and with an intent to defraud its creditors (which means an intention to willfully defeat an obligation owed to a creditor), shall be voidable:

~~(i)~~

~~under Section 146(2) of the Cayman Companies Law at the instance of the Cayman Islands company’s official liquidator; and~~

~~(ii)~~

~~under the Fraudulent Dispositions Law (1996 Revision), at the instance of a creditor thereby prejudiced,~~

~~provided that in either case, no such action may be commenced more than six years after the date of the relevant disposition.~~

~~The concept of a “disposition of property” is potentially very wide and this provision could potentially impact on a wide range of transactions.~~

~~Fraudulent Trading~~

Pursuant to section 147 of the Cayman Companies Law, if in the course of the winding up of the Cayman Islands company, it appears that any business of the Cayman Islands company has been carried on with intent to defraud creditors of the Cayman Islands company or creditors of any other person or for any fraudulent purpose, the courts of the Cayman Islands (“Cayman Court”) may, upon application of the liquidator declare that any persons who were knowingly parties to the carrying on of the business of the Cayman Islands company in such manner are liable to make such contributions, if any, to the Cayman Islands company’s assets as the Cayman Court thinks proper.

~~Singapore~~

~~Corporate Authorization and Capacity~~

~~Broadcom Parent is a public limited company incorporated under the laws of the Republic of Singapore.~~

Generally, a company incorporated in Singapore (the “Singapore Company”) must have the requisite capacity and power to enter into guarantees within the parameters of its constitutional documents. This would also involve ensuring that the Singapore Company has taken all corporate action, including the passing of corporate resolutions required under its constitutional documents, to authorize the execution by it of the guarantees and the exercise by it of its rights and the performance by it of its obligations under the guarantees.

~~Unfair Preferences and Undervalue Transactions~~

The guarantee given by a Singapore Company might be subject to challenges by a liquidator or a judicial manager under Singapore laws including those relating to transactions at an undervalue or preferential transactions.

On the application of a liquidator or judicial manager, the Singapore courts may make such an order as they think fit for restoring the position to what it would have been if the Singapore Company subject to the application had not entered into, inter alia, any of the following types of transactions:

a transaction with any person at an undervalue which took place at any time within the period of five years ending on the date of the commencement of the winding up or the judicial management, as the case may be;

a transaction under which an unfair preference is given by the Singapore Company to a person who is connected with the Singapore Company (otherwise than by reason only of being its employee), and which is not a transaction at an undervalue, at any time within the period of two years ending on the date of the commencement of the winding up or the judicial management, as the case may be; or

in any other case of a transaction under which an unfair preference is given by the Singapore Company, and which is not a transaction at an undervalue, at any time within the period of six months ending on the date of the commencement of the winding up or the judicial management, as the case may be;

~~provided~~ that the Singapore Company was insolvent when it entered into the transaction or became insolvent as a result of the transaction. Where the transaction was entered into with a person who is connected with the Singapore Company (otherwise than by reason only of being its employee), the requirement that the

~~Singapore Company was insolvent at the time of the transaction or became insolvent as a result of the transaction shall be presumed to be satisfied unless the contrary is shown.~~

~~A Singapore Company will be treated as having entered into a transaction with a person at an undervalue if:~~

~~it makes a gift to that person or otherwise enters into a transaction with that person on terms that provide for it to receive no consideration; or~~

it enters into a transaction with that person for a consideration the value of which, in money or money’s worth, is significantly less than the value, in money or money’s worth, of the consideration provided by the Singapore Company.

The Singapore courts shall not make any order in respect of a transaction at an undervalue if it is satisfied that the Singapore Company entered into the transaction in good faith and for the purpose of carrying on its business and that, at the time it entered into the transaction, there were reasonable grounds for believing that the transaction would benefit the Singapore Company.

~~The Singapore Company will be treated as having given an unfair preference to another person if:~~

~~that person is a creditor of the Singapore Company or a surety or guarantor for a debt or other liability of the Singapore Company; and~~

the Singapore Company does anything or suffers anything to be done that (in either case) has the effect of putting the person into a position which, in the event of the winding up of the Singapore Company, will be better than the position he would have been in if that thing had not been done.

The Singapore courts shall not make an order in respect of an unfair preference given to any person unless the Singapore Company, when giving the unfair preference, was influenced in deciding to give the unfair preference by a desire to produce in relation to that person the effect referred to in the second bullet point immediately preceding this paragraph. If the Singapore Company gave an unfair preference to a person who was, at the time the unfair preference was given, was connected with the Singapore Company (otherwise than by reason only of being its employee), the Singapore Company shall be presumed, unless the contrary is shown, to have been influenced in deciding to give the unfair preference by the desire referred to above.

~~Difference in Insolvency Law~~

~~One of the guarantors, Broadcom Limited, is incorporated under the laws of Singapore.~~

Any insolvency proceedings applicable to it will be likely to be governed by Singapore insolvency laws. Singapore insolvency laws differ from the insolvency laws of the United States and may make it more difficult for creditors to recover the amount in respect of Broadcom Limited’s guarantee than they would have recovered in a liquidation or bankruptcy proceeding in the United States.

~~Priority of Secured Creditors~~

With limited exceptions, Singapore insolvency laws generally recognize the priority of secured creditors over unsecured creditors. Such exceptions include certain costs of insolvency practitioners (e.g. liquidators and judicial managers) and employee related claims to have priority over floating charges and for certain Singapore government related liabilities to have high priority.

~~Preferential Creditors~~

~~Under Section 328 of the Singapore Companies Act, in awinding-up~~ ~~of a Singapore company, generally, certain preferential debts are required to be paid in priority to the general body of unsecured creditors.~~

~~The preferential debts covered by Section 328 of the Singapore Companies Act, and their respective priorities, are described broadly below:~~

~~first, costs and expenses of the winding up;~~

~~second, employees’ wages and salaries (including any allowances or reimbursements payable to an employee on termination of his services);~~

•

~~third, retrenchment benefits or~~~~ex gratia~~ ~~payments under employment contracts;~~

~~fourth, work injury compensation under the Work Injury Compensation Act (Cap. 354 of Singapore);~~

~~fifth, certain amounts due under employees’ superannuation or provident funds or under any scheme of superannuation which is an approved scheme under Singapore income tax laws;~~

~~sixth, other remuneration payable in respect of employees’ vacation leave; and~~

~~seventh, taxes assessed and goods and services tax.~~

Items one to six have priority over floating charges. In addition, apart from Section 328 of the Singapore Companies Act, there are certain other laws which confer priority over the general body of unsecured creditors and these include certain other employee and revenue related claims.

~~Disclaimer of Onerous Contracts~~

Section 332 of the Singapore Companies Act provides that where any property of a company consists of either an estate or interest in land that is burdened with onerous covenants, shares in corporations, unprofitable contracts or any other property that is unsaleable, or not readily saleable, by reason of its binding the company to the performance of any onerous act, or to the payment of any sum of money, the liquidator may with the leave of court or the committee of inspection, disclaim such property within 12 months of (i) commencement of~~winding-up~~ or (ii) (where any such property has not come to the knowledge of the liquidator within one month after the commencement of the winding up) within 12 months of such time as the liquidator becomes aware of such property, or such extended period as is allowed by the court.

~~SERVICE OF PROCESS AND ENFORCEMENT OF CIVIL LIABILITIES~~

~~Cayman Islands~~

The courts of the Cayman Islands are unlikely (i) to recognize or enforce against Cayman Finance or Broadcom Cayman L.P. judgments of courts of the United States predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any State; and (ii) in original actions brought in the Cayman Islands, to impose liabilities against Cayman Finance or Broadcom Cayman L.P. predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the securities laws of the United States or any State, so far as the liabilities imposed by those provisions are penal in nature. In those circumstances, although there is no statutory enforcement in the Cayman Islands of judgments obtained in the United States, the courts of the Cayman Islands will recognize and enforce a foreign money judgment of a foreign court of competent jurisdiction without retrial on the merits based on the principle that a judgment of a competent foreign court imposes upon the judgment debtor an obligation to pay the sum for which judgment has been given provided certain conditions are met. For such a foreign judgment to be enforced in the Cayman Islands, such judgment must be final and conclusive and for a liquidated sum, and must not be in respect of taxes or a fine or penalty, inconsistent with a Cayman Islands judgment in respect of the same matter, impeachable on the grounds of fraud or obtained in a manner, or be of a kind the enforcement of which is, contrary to natural justice or the public policy of the Cayman Islands (awards of punitive or multiple damages may well be held to be contrary to public policy). A Cayman Islands court may stay enforcement proceedings if concurrent proceedings are being brought elsewhere.

~~Singapore~~

Broadcom Limited is incorporated in Singapore under the Companies Act, Chapter 50 of Singapore. Some of its directors reside outside the United States and a substantial portion of its assets are located outside the United States. As a result, it may not be possible for investors to effect service of process within the United States upon Broadcom Parent or to enforce against it in United States courts, judgments obtained in such courts predicated upon the civil liability provisions of the federal securities laws of the United States.

There is uncertainty as to whether judgments of courts in the United States based upon the civil liability provisions of the federal securities laws of the United States would be recognized or enforceable in Singapore courts, and there is doubt as to whether Singapore courts would enter judgments in original actions brought in Singapore courts based solely upon the civil liability provisions of the federal securities laws of the United States. A final and conclusive judgment in the federal or state courts of the United States under which a fixed sum of money is payable, other than a sum payable in respect of taxes, fines, penalties or similar charges, may be enforced by commencing an action in the courts of Singapore for the amount due under the judgment.

Civil liability provisions of the federal and state securities laws of the United States permit the award of punitive damages against Broadcom Parent, its directors and officers. Singapore courts would not recognize or enforce judgments against Broadcom Parent, its directors and officers to the extent that the judgment is punitive or penal. It is uncertain as to whether a judgment of the courts of the United States under civil liability provisions of the federal securities laws of the United States would be determined by the Singapore courts to be or not be punitive or penal in nature. Such a determination has yet to be made by any Singapore court. The Singapore courts also may not recognize or enforce a foreign judgment if the foreign judgment is procured by fraud, its enforcement would be contrary to public policy, or the proceedings in which the judgment was obtained were opposed to natural justice.

UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS

The following discussion is a summary of ~~the material United States~~certain U.S. federal income tax considerations relevant to the exchange of the outstanding notes for the exchange notes pursuant to the exchange offer, but does not purport to be a complete analysis of all potential tax effects. This discussion is based upon the Code, United States Treasury Regulations issued thereunder, administrative rulings and pronouncements and judicial decisions now in effect, all of which are subject to change at any time. Any such change may be applied retroactively in a manner that could adversely affect a holder of the notes. We have not sought and do not intend to seek any rulings from the United States Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) regarding the matters discussed below. There can be no assurance that the IRS or a court will not take positions concerning the tax consequences of the exchange of the outstanding notes for the exchange notes pursuant to the exchange offer that are different from those discussed below or that any such positions would not be sustained.

This discussion does not address all of the U.S. federal income tax consequences that may be relevant to a holder’s particular circumstances, orincluding the Medicare contribution tax on net investment income. In addition it does not address consequences to holders subject to special rules under U.S. federal income tax laws, such as:

banks, thrifts and other financial institutions;

controlled foreign corporations and passive foreign investment ~~companies~~companies;

U.S. expatriates;

insurance companies;

dealers in securities or currencies and traders in securities that have elected themark-to-market method of accounting for their securities;

entities or arrangements treated as partnerships or other pass-through entities or arrangements for U.S. federal income tax purposes or investors in such ~~entities;~~entities or arrangements;

United States persons (as defined in the Code) whose functional currency is not the United States dollar;

holders subject to the alternative minimum tax;

tax-exempt organizations;

persons subject to special tax accounting rules as a result of any item of gross income with respect to the notes being taken into account in an applicable financial statement;

regulated investment companies and real estate investment trusts; and

persons holding the notes as part of a straddle, hedge, conversion transaction or other integrated ~~transaction.~~transaction for tax purposes.

~~Persons considering the purchase~~Holders of the notes should consult their ~~own~~ advisors concerning the application of U.S. federal income, estate and gift tax laws, as well as the laws of any state, local or foreign taxing jurisdiction or under any applicable tax treaty, to their particular situations.

Exchange Pursuant to the Exchange Offer

The exchange of the outstanding notes for the exchange notes in the exchange offer will not be treated as an “exchange” for U.S. federal income tax purposes because the exchange notes will not be considered to differ materially in kind or extent from the outstanding notes of the applicable series. Accordingly, the exchange of outstanding notes for exchange notes will not be a taxable event to holders for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Moreover, the exchange notes will have the same tax attributes as the outstanding notes exchanged therefor and the same tax consequences to holders as the exchange notes have to holders, including, without limitation, the same issue price, adjusted issue price, adjusted tax basis and holding period.

~~CERTAIN CAYMAN ISLANDS TAX CONSIDERATIONS~~

The following is a discussion on certain Cayman Islands income tax consequences of an investment in the notes. The discussion is a general summary of present law, which is subject to prospective and retroactive change. It is not intended as tax advice, does not consider any investor’s particular circumstances and does not consider tax consequences other than those arising under Cayman Islands law.

~~Existing Cayman Islands Laws~~

Payments of interest and principal on the notes will not be subject to taxation in the Cayman Islands and no withholding will be required on the payment of interest and principal of the notes, as the case may be, nor will gains derived from the disposal of the notes be subject to Cayman Islands income or corporation tax. The Cayman Islands currently have no income, corporation or capital gains tax and no estate duty, inheritance tax or gift tax.

~~No stamp duty is payable in respect of the issue of the notes. An instrument of transfer in respect of a notes is stampable if executed in or brought into the Cayman Islands.~~

~~The Tax Concessions Law (2011 Revision)—Undertaking as to Tax Concessions~~

Cayman Finance has been incorporated under the laws of the Cayman Islands as an exempted company with limited liability and, as such, has obtained an undertaking from the Governor in Cabinet of the Cayman Islands in the following form:

~~“In accordance with the provision of section 6 of The Tax Concessions Law (2011 Revision), the Governor in Cabinet undertakes with Cayman Finance:~~

~~(i)~~

~~That no law which is hereafter enacted in the Islands imposing any tax to be levied on profits, income, gains or appreciations shall apply to Cayman Finance or its operations; and~~

~~(ii)~~

~~In addition, that no tax to be levied on profits, income, gains or appreciations or which is in the nature of estate duty or inheritance tax shall be payable:~~

~~on or in respect of the shares, debentures or other obligations of Cayman Finance; or~~

~~by way of the withholding in whole or part, of any relevant payment as defined in Section 6(3) of the Tax Concessions Law (2011 Revision).~~

~~These concessions shall be for a period of twenty years from 9 June 2015”.~~

~~FATCA~~

The Cayman Islands has entered into a Model 1 intergovernmental agreement (the “US IGA”) with the United States. Under the terms of the US IGA, Cayman Finance is required to register with the IRS to obtain a Global Intermediary Identification Number (“GIIN”) and then comply with the Cayman Islands Tax Information Authority Law (2017 Revision) together with regulations and guidance notes made pursuant to such Law (the “Cayman FATCA Legislation”) that give effect to, amongst other things, the US IGA. As such, Cayman Finance or its agent is required to collect and report to the Cayman Islands Tax Information Authority substantial information regarding certain holders of notes. Under the terms of the US IGA (i) the Cayman Islands Tax Information Authority will exchange such information with the IRS and (ii) withholding will not be imposed on payments made to Cayman Finance unless the IRS has specifically listed Cayman Finance as a~~non-participating~~ financial institution, or on payments made by Cayman Finance to the holders of notes unless Cayman Finance has otherwise assumed responsibility for withholding under United States tax law. Cayman Finance has obtained a GIIN and intends to comply with the Cayman FATCA Legislation.

~~UK FATCA and the OECD Common Reporting Standard~~

The Cayman Islands has also (i) entered into a similar intergovernmental agreement (the “UK IGA”) with the United Kingdom, which imposes requirements similar to those under the US IGA with respect to holders of notes who are resident in the United Kingdom for tax purposes and (ii) signed, along with over 80 other countries, a multilateral competent authority agreement to implement the OECD Standard for Automatic Exchange of Financial Account Information—Common Reporting Standard (the “CRS”), which requires “Financial Institutions” to identify, and report information in respect of, specified persons in the jurisdictions which sign and implement the CRS. Cayman Finance must also adopt and implement written policies and procedures setting out how it will address its obligations under the CRS.

~~Cayman Islands Anti-Money Laundering Legislation~~

Cayman Finance is subject to the Anti-Money Laundering Regulations, 2017 of the Cayman Islands (“Regulations”). The Regulations apply to anyone conducting “relevant financial business” in or from the Cayman Islands intending to form a business relationship or carry out a~~one-off~~ transaction. The Regulations require a financial service provider to maintain certain anti-money laundering procedures including those for the purposes of verifying the identity and source of funds of an “applicant for business”; e.g. an investor, as well as the identity of the beneficial owner/controller of the investor, where applicable. Except in certain circumstances, including where an entity is regulated by a recognized overseas regulatory authority and/or listed on a recognized stock exchange in an approved jurisdiction, Cayman Finance will likely be required to verify each investor’s identity and the source of the payment used by such investor for purchasing the notes in a manner similar to the obligations imposed under the laws of other major financial centers. Application of an identity verification exemption at the time of purchase of the notes may nevertheless require verification of identity prior to payment of proceeds from the notes. In addition, if any person in the Cayman Islands knows or suspects, or has reasonable grounds for knowing or suspecting that another person is engaged in criminal conduct or money laundering, or is involved with terrorism or terrorist financing and property, and the information for that knowledge or suspicion came to their attention in the course of business in the regulated sector, or other trade, profession, business or employment, the person will be required to report such knowledge or suspicion to (i) the Financial Reporting Authority of the Cayman Islands (the “FRA”), pursuant to the Proceeds of Crime Law (2017 Revision) of the Cayman Islands (the “PCL”), if the disclosure relates to criminal conduct or money laundering, or (ii) a police officer of the rank of constable or higher, or the FRA, pursuant to the Terrorism Law (2017 Revision) of the Cayman Islands, if the disclosure relates to involvement with terrorism or terrorist financing and property. If Cayman Finance were determined by the Cayman Islands authorities to be in violation of the PCL, the Terrorism Law or the Regulations, Cayman Finance could be subject to substantial criminal penalties and/or administrative fines. Cayman Finance may be subject to similar restrictions in other jurisdictions. Such a violation could materially adversely affect the timing and amount of payments by Cayman Finance to the holders of the notes.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

Each broker-dealer that receives exchange notes for its own account pursuant to the exchange offer must acknowledge that it will deliver a prospectus in connection with any resale of the exchange notes. This prospectus, as it may be amended or supplemented from time to time, may be used by a broker-dealer in connection with resales of exchange notes received in exchange for outstanding notes where the outstanding notes were acquired as a result of market-making activities or other trading activities. In addition, all dealers effecting transactions in the exchange notes may be required to deliver a prospectus. To the extent any such broker-dealer participates in the exchange offer, we have agreed that for a period of up to 180 days after the day the registered exchange offer expires (or such shorter period if a broker-dealer is no longer required to deliver a prospectus), we will make this prospectus, as amended or supplemented, available to such broker-dealer for use in connection with any such resale, and will deliver as many additional copies of this prospectus and each amendment or supplement to this prospectus and any documents incorporated by reference in this prospectus as such broker-dealer may request in the letter of transmittal.

We will not receive any proceeds from any sale of exchange notes by broker-dealers.

~~In addition, no director, secretary or other officer~~The amended and restated certificate of incorporation of Broadcom Inc. and the certificate of incorporation of Broadcom Technologies Inc., in each case as currently in effect, provide that its ~~subsidiaries~~directors and ~~affiliates shall~~officers will be ~~liable for~~indemnified by Broadcom Inc. and Broadcom Technologies Inc., as the ~~acts, receipts, neglects~~case may be, to the fullest extent authorized by Delaware law as it now exists or ~~defaults of any other~~may in the future be amended, against all expenses, liabilities and loss incurred in connection with their service as a director or officer or for joining in any receipt or other act for conformity, or for any loss or expense incurred by Broadcom, through the insufficiency or deficiency of title to any property acquired by order of the directors for or on behalf of ~~Broadcom or for~~ the ~~insufficiency or deficiency of any security in or upon which any~~corporation.

Broadcom Corporation

Section 317(b) of the California Corporations Code (the “California Code”), empowers a corporation to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any proceeding (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor) by reason of the fact that the person is or was an agent of the corporation, as defined in that section, against expenses, judgments, fines, settlements, and other amounts actually and reasonably incurred in connection with the proceeding if that person acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in the best interests of the corporation and, in the case of a criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe the conduct of the person was unlawful.

Section 317(c) of the California Code further empowers a corporation to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending, or completed action by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that the person is or was an agent of the corporation, against expenses actually and reasonably incurred by that person in connection with the defense or settlement of the action if the person acted in good faith, in a manner the person believed to be in the best interests of the corporation and its shareholders.

Section 317 of the California Code further provides that indemnification is precluded under certain circumstances, including, (i) in respect of a claim, issue or matter as to which the person has been adjudged to be liable to the corporation in the performance of that person’s duty to the corporation and its shareholders, unless and only to the extent that the court in which the proceeding is or was pending determines upon application that, in view of all the circumstances of the case, the person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for expenses and then only to the extent that the court determines (ii) of amounts paid in settling or otherwise disposing of a pending action without court approval, and (iii) of expenses incurred in defending a pending action which is settled or otherwise disposed of without court approval. To the extent that an agent of a corporation has been successful on the merits in defense of any proceeding referred to in Section 317(b) or Section 317(c) or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, such agent will be indemnified against expenses actually and reasonably incurred in connection therewith. Otherwise, Section 317 requires that indemnification must be authorized in each specific instance by either a majority vote of a quorum consisting of directors who are not parties to such proceeding, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion if such a quorum of directors is not obtainable, by approval of the shareholders, with shares owned by the person to be indemnified not being entitled to vote, or by the court in which the proceeding is or was pending upon application by the corporation or an agent or attorney or other person rendering services in connection with the defense. Expenses incurred in defending any proceeding may be advanced by the corporation prior to the final disposition of the proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of the agent to repay that amount if it is ultimately determined that such person is not entitled to be indemnified under Section 317.

Section 317 of the California Code also provides that the indemnification provided for under Section 317 shall not be deemed exclusive of any additional rights to indemnification for breach of duty to the corporation and its shareholders while acting in the capacity of a director or officer of the corporation to the extent such additional rights are properly authorized. The indemnification provided for under Section 317 for acts, omissions, or transactions while acting in the capacity of, or while serving as, a director or officer of the corporation but not involving breach of duty to the corporation and its shareholders will not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification may be entitled under any bylaw, agreement, vote of shareholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise, to the extent the additional rights to indemnification are authorized in the articles of the corporation. The rights to such indemnification will continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent and will inure to the benefit of such person’s heirs, executors and administrators. Section 317 also empowers the corporation to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any agent of the corporation against any liability asserted against or incurred by the agent in that capacity or arising out of the agent’s status as such whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify the agent against that liability under Section 317.

II-2

The amended and restated articles of incorporation of Broadcom Corporation provide that the corporation is authorized to provide indemnification of agents (as defined in Section 317 of the California Code) through bylaw provisions, agreements with agents, vote of shareholders or disinterred directors, or otherwise in excess of the indemnification otherwise permitted by Section 317, subject only to the applicable limits set forth in Section 204 of the California Code with respect to actions for breach of duty to the corporation and its shareholders. Pursuant to this provision, Broadcom Corporation’s bylaws provide for indemnification of Broadcom Corporation’s directors and officers. In addition, Broadcom Corporation may, at its discretion, provide indemnification to persons whom it is not obligated to indemnify, including its employees and other agents. The bylaws also allow Broadcom Corporation to enter into indemnity agreements with individual directors, officers, employees and other agents. These provisions may require Broadcom Corporation, among other things, to indemnify directors or executive officers (other than for liability resulting from willful misconduct of a culpable nature), to advance expenses to them as they are incurred, provided that they undertake to repay the amount advanced if it is ultimately determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that they are not entitled to indemnification, and to obtain directors’ and officers’ insurance if available on reasonable terms. Section 317 of the California Code and Broadcom Corporation’s bylaws makes provision for the indemnification of officers, directors and other corporate agents in terms sufficiently broad to indemnify such persons, under certain circumstances, for liabilities (including reimbursement of expenses incurred) arising under the ~~SCA.~~Securities Act.
