Email from Scott McGregor to Broadcom Employees

Broadcom Colleagues,

Today Avago Technologies and Broadcom Corporation announced that all regulatory approvals have been obtained, and that the election period for Broadcom Shareholders will begin on or about December 11, 2015 in preparation for a closing targeted for February 1, 2016.

You can read the press release here (http://www.broadcom.com/press/release.php?id=s945830).

As I said when the transaction was announced, I believe this merger will benefit all of Broadcom’s key stakeholders. Customers will gain access to a greater breadth of technology. Employees will have new opportunities as part of the third largest semiconductor company in the world. For shareholders the transaction provides both compelling up-front value as well as the opportunity to participate in the future upside of the combined business. The new company, Broadcom Limited, will build on the strengths of both companies as a leader in both the communications markets as well as the broader semiconductor industry.

I appreciate your focus as we continue to operate as separate companies until close. Thank you for your support during the integration planning over the past several months and for your contributions to Broadcom. I am proud of the legacy that we have created together.

Scott.
