CA, INC.

3.600% SENIOR NOTES DUE 2022

This Security is a Global Security evidencing a security of the duly authorized series of securities of the Company designated as its 3.600% Senior Notes due 2022 (the securities of such series are herein called the “Securities”), issued under an Indenture, dated as of June 1, 2008 (herein called the “Indenture”, which term shall have the meaning assigned to it in such instrument), between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (herein called the “Trustee”, which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture). The terms of this Global Security include those stated in, or made pursuant to, the Indenture. The Securities are subject to all such terms, and reference is made to the Indenture, all indentures supplemental thereto and all written instruments of the Company establishing such terms for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered.

The Securities shall be redeemable, at the Company’s option, in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time prior to the Par Call Date (as defined below), upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice. Upon redemption of the Securities, the Company shall pay a redemption price (the “Redemption Price”) equal to the greater of:

 

  (a) 100% of the principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed; and

 

  (b) the sum of the present values of the Remaining Scheduled Payments (as defined below) of the Securities to be redeemed, discounted to the date of redemption on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate (as defined below) plus 25 basis points, provided that the principal amount of each Security remaining outstanding after redemption in part will be $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof;

in each case plus accrued interest thereon to, but excluding, the date of redemption (the “Redemption Date”).

At any time on or after the Par Call Date, the Company may redeem, in whole or in part, the Securities, at 100% of the principal amount being redeemed plus accrued interest thereon to, but excluding, the Redemption Date.

If the Redemption Date is on or after an Interest Record Date and on or before the related Interest Payment Date, the accrued and unpaid interest, if any, will be paid to the Person in whose name the Securities are registered at the close of business on such Interest Record Date, and no additional interest will be payable to Holders whose Securities will be subject to redemption by the Company.

 

A-5


The following terms have the following meanings:

“Comparable Treasury Issue” means the United States Treasury security selected by an Independent Investment Banker as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term of the Securities to be redeemed (assuming, for this purpose, that the Securities mature on the Par Call Date) that would be used, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities having such comparable maturity.

“Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for that Redemption Date.

“Independent Investment Banker” means the Reference Treasury Dealer appointed by the Company.

“Par Call Date” means July 15, 2022.

“Reference Treasury Dealer” means (i) each of J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated and Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC and their respective successors and (ii) any other primary U.S. Government securities dealer in New York City selected by the Company.

“Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any Redemption Date, the average, as determined by the Independent Investment Banker, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Independent Investment Banker by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the third Business Day preceding that Redemption Date, after excluding the highest and lowest of such quotations, unless the Independent Investment Banker obtains fewer than four such quotations, in which case the average of all of such quotations.

“Remaining Scheduled Payments” means, with respect to each Security to be redeemed, the remaining scheduled payments of the principal thereof and interest thereon that would be due after the related Redemption Date therefor if such Security matured on the Par Call Date; provided, however, that, if that Redemption Date is not an Interest Payment Date, the amount of the next succeeding scheduled interest payment thereon shall be reduced by the amount of interest accrued thereon to that Redemption Date.

“Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity, computed as of the third Business Day immediately preceding that Redemption Date, of the Comparable Treasury Issue, assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for that Redemption Date.

Notice of any redemption shall be mailed by first-class mail at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of Securities to be

 

A-6


redeemed. If less than all the Securities are to be redeemed, the Securities to be redeemed shall be selected by the Trustee not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date by such method as the Trustee deems fair and appropriate. Unless the Company defaults in payment of the Redemption Price, on and after the Redemption Date, interest shall cease to accrue on the Securities or portions thereof called for redemption.

The Securities are not subject to any sinking fund requirement.

If a Change of Control Repurchase Event (as defined below) occurs, unless the Company has exercised its right to redeem all of the Securities as described above, each Holder of the Securities shall have the right to require the Company to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof) of such Holder’s Securities at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Securities plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of repurchase (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant Interest Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date); provided that after giving effect to the purchase, any of the Securities that remain outstanding shall have a denomination of $2,000 or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

Within 30 days following any Change of Control Repurchase Event, unless the Company has exercised its right to redeem all of the Securities as described above, the Company shall mail a notice (the “Change of Control Offer”) by first-class mail to each Holder, with a copy to the Trustee, stating:

(a)    that such Change of Control Repurchase Event has occurred and that such Holder has the right to require the Company to repurchase such Holder’s Securities at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Securities plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of repurchase (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant interest record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date) (the “Change of Control Payment”);

(b)    the date of repurchase (which shall be no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date the Change of Control Offer is mailed) (the “Change of Control Payment Date”);

(c)    the procedures determined by the Company, consistent with the Indenture, that a Holder must follow in order to have its Securities repurchased; and

(d)    if such notice is mailed prior to the date of consummation of the Change of Control, that the Change of Control Offer is conditioned upon the Change of Control being consummated on or prior to the Change of Control Payment Date.

On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Company shall, to the extent lawful:

(i)    accept for payment all Securities or portions of Securities (equal to $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof) properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer;

 

A-7


(ii)    deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all Securities or portions of Securities so tendered; and

(iii)    deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Securities so accepted together with an officers’ certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Securities or portions of Securities being repurchased by the Company.

The Paying Agent shall promptly mail to each Holder of Securities so tendered the Change of Control Payment for such Securities, and the Trustee shall promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to each Holder a new security equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Securities surrendered, if any, provided that each such new security shall be in a principal amount of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

If the Change of Control Payment Date is on or after an interest record date and on or before the related Interest Payment Date, any accrued and unpaid interest, if any, shall be paid to the Person in whose name the Security is registered at the close of business on such interest record date, and no additional interest shall be payable to Holders who tender pursuant to the Change of Control Offer.

Holders of Securities electing to have Securities purchased pursuant to a Change of Control Offer will be required to surrender their Securities, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” on the reverse of this Security completed, to the Paying Agent at the address specified in the notice, or transfer their Securities to the Paying Agent by book-entry transfer pursuant to the applicable procedures of the Paying Agent, prior to the close of business on the third Business Day prior to the Change of Control Payment Date.

The Company shall not be required to make the Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control Repurchase Event if a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in the Indenture applicable to the Change of Control Offer to be made by the Company and repurchases all Securities validly tendered and not withdrawn under the Change of Control Offer.

The Company shall comply, to the extent applicable, with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws or regulations in connection with the repurchase of Securities pursuant to the Change of Control Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with provisions of the Indenture, the Company shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations described in the Indenture by virtue of the conflict.

(REVERSE OF SECURITY)

CA, INC.

4.700% SENIOR NOTES DUE 2027

This Security is a Global Security evidencing a security of the duly authorized series of securities of the Company designated as its 4.700% Senior Notes due 2027 (the securities of such series are herein called the “Securities”), issued under an Indenture, dated as of June 1, 2008 (herein called the “Indenture”, which term shall have the meaning assigned to it in such instrument), between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (herein called the “Trustee”, which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture). The terms of this Global Security include those stated in, or made pursuant to, the Indenture. The Securities are subject to all such terms, and reference is made to the Indenture, all indentures supplemental thereto and all written instruments of the Company establishing such terms for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered.

The Securities shall be redeemable, at the Company’s option, in whole or in part, at any time or from time to time prior to the Par Call Date (as defined below), upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice. Upon redemption of the Securities, the Company shall pay a redemption price (the “Redemption Price”) equal to the greater of:

 

  (c) 100% of the principal amount of the Securities to be redeemed; and

 

  (d) the sum of the present values of the Remaining Scheduled Payments (as defined below) of the Securities to be redeemed, discounted to the date of redemption on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate (as defined below) plus 35 basis points, provided that the principal amount of each Security remaining outstanding after redemption in part will be $2,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000 in excess thereof;

in each case plus accrued interest thereon to, but excluding, the date of redemption (the “Redemption Date”).

At any time on or after the Par Call Date, the Company may redeem, in whole or in part, the Securities, at 100% of the principal amount being redeemed plus accrued interest thereon to, but excluding, the Redemption Date.

If the Redemption Date is on or after an Interest Record Date and on or before the related Interest Payment Date, the accrued and unpaid interest, if any, will be paid to the Person in whose name the Securities are registered at the close of business on such Interest Record Date, and no additional interest will be payable to Holders whose Securities will be subject to redemption by the Company.

 

B-5


The following terms have the following meanings:

“Comparable Treasury Issue” means the United States Treasury security selected by an Independent Investment Banker as having a maturity comparable to the remaining term of the Securities to be redeemed (assuming, for this purpose, that the Securities mature on the Par Call Date) that would be used, at the time of selection and in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities having such comparable maturity.

“Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for that Redemption Date.

“Independent Investment Banker” means the Reference Treasury Dealer appointed by the Company.

“Par Call Date” means December 15, 2026.

“Reference Treasury Dealer” means (i) each of J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated and Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC and their respective successors and (ii) any other primary U.S. Government securities dealer in New York City selected by the Company.

“Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any Redemption Date, the average, as determined by the Independent Investment Banker, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Independent Investment Banker by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the third Business Day preceding that Redemption Date, after excluding the highest and lowest of such quotations, unless the Independent Investment Banker obtains fewer than four such quotations, in which case the average of all of such quotations.

“Remaining Scheduled Payments” means, with respect to each Security to be redeemed, the remaining scheduled payments of the principal thereof and interest thereon that would be due after the related Redemption Date therefor if such Security matured on the Par Call Date; provided, however, that, if that Redemption Date is not an Interest Payment Date, the amount of the next succeeding scheduled interest payment thereon shall be reduced by the amount of interest accrued thereon to that Redemption Date.

“Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any Redemption Date, the rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity, computed as of the third Business Day immediately preceding that Redemption Date, of the Comparable Treasury Issue, assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for that Redemption Date.

Notice of any redemption shall be mailed by first-class mail at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date to each Holder of Securities to be redeemed. If less than all the Securities are to be redeemed, the Securities to be redeemed shall be selected by the Trustee not more than 60 days before the Redemption Date by such method as the Trustee deems fair and appropriate. Unless the Company defaults in payment of the Redemption Price, on and after the Redemption Date, interest shall cease to accrue on the Securities or portions thereof called for redemption.

 

B-6


The Securities are not subject to any sinking fund requirement.

If a Change of Control Repurchase Event (as defined below) occurs, unless the Company has exercised its right to redeem all of the Securities as described above, each Holder of the Securities shall have the right to require the Company to repurchase all or any part (equal to $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof) of such Holder’s Securities at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Securities plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of repurchase (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant Interest Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date); provided that after giving effect to the purchase, any of the Securities that remain outstanding shall have a denomination of $2,000 or integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

Within 30 days following any Change of Control Repurchase Event, unless the Company has exercised its right to redeem all of the Securities as described above, the Company shall mail a notice (the “Change of Control Offer”) by first-class mail to each Holder, with a copy to the Trustee, stating:

(e)    that such Change of Control Repurchase Event has occurred and that such Holder has the right to require the Company to repurchase such Holder’s Securities at a purchase price in cash equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Securities plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of repurchase (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant interest record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date) (the “Change of Control Payment”);

(f)    the date of repurchase (which shall be no earlier than 30 days nor later than 60 days from the date the Change of Control Offer is mailed) (the “Change of Control Payment Date”);

(g)    the procedures determined by the Company, consistent with the Indenture, that a Holder must follow in order to have its Securities repurchased; and

(h)    if such notice is mailed prior to the date of consummation of the Change of Control, that the Change of Control Offer is conditioned upon the Change of Control being consummated on or prior to the Change of Control Payment Date.

On the Change of Control Payment Date, the Company shall, to the extent lawful:

(iv)    accept for payment all Securities or portions of Securities (equal to $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof) properly tendered pursuant to the Change of Control Offer;

(v)    deposit with the Paying Agent an amount equal to the Change of Control Payment in respect of all Securities or portions of Securities so tendered; and

(vi)    deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee the Securities so accepted together with an officers’ certificate stating the aggregate principal amount of Securities or portions of Securities being repurchased by the Company.

 

B-7


The Paying Agent shall promptly mail to each Holder of Securities so tendered the Change of Control Payment for such Securities, and the Trustee shall promptly authenticate and mail (or cause to be transferred by book entry) to each Holder a new security equal in principal amount to any unpurchased portion of the Securities surrendered, if any, provided that each such new security shall be in a principal amount of $2,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.

If the Change of Control Payment Date is on or after an interest record date and on or before the related Interest Payment Date, any accrued and unpaid interest, if any, shall be paid to the Person in whose name the Security is registered at the close of business on such interest record date, and no additional interest shall be payable to Holders who tender pursuant to the Change of Control Offer.

Holders of Securities electing to have Securities purchased pursuant to a Change of Control Offer will be required to surrender their Securities, with the form entitled “Option of Holder to Elect Purchase” on the reverse of this Security completed, to the Paying Agent at the address specified in the notice, or transfer their Securities to the Paying Agent by book-entry transfer pursuant to the applicable procedures of the Paying Agent, prior to the close of business on the third Business Day prior to the Change of Control Payment Date.

The Company shall not be required to make the Change of Control Offer upon a Change of Control Repurchase Event if a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in the Indenture applicable to the Change of Control Offer to be made by the Company and repurchases all Securities validly tendered and not withdrawn under the Change of Control Offer.

The Company shall comply, to the extent applicable, with the requirements of Rule 14e-1 under the Exchange Act and any other securities laws or regulations in connection with the repurchase of Securities pursuant to the Change of Control Offer. To the extent that the provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with provisions of the Indenture, the Company shall comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have breached its obligations described in the Indenture by virtue of the conflict.

The following terms have the following meanings:

(i)    the direct or indirect sale, lease, transfer, conveyance or other disposition (other than by way of merger or consolidation), in one or a series of related transactions, of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets and the assets of the subsidiaries taken as a whole to any “person” (as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange Act) other than to the Company or one of its subsidiaries; or

(j)    the adoption by the Company’s stockholders of a plan or proposal for its liquidation or dissolution.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a transaction shall not be considered to be a Change of Control if (a) the Company becomes a direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiary of a holding company and (b) immediately following that transaction, (1) the direct or indirect holders of the Voting Stock of the holding company are substantially the same as the holders of the Company’s Voting Stock immediately prior to that transaction or (2) no person or group is the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of more than a majority of the Voting Stock of the holding company.

“Rating Decline” means the Securities cease to be rated Investement Grade by at least two of the three Rating Agencies on any date during the period from the date of the first public notice of an arrangement that could result in a Change of Control until 60 days following the consummation of such Change of Control (which period will be extended following the consummation of such Change of Control for so long as any of the Rating Agencies has publicly announced that it is considering a possible downgrade in its rating of the Securities).

B-10
