Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On December 15, 2013, LSI Corporation (the “Company”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) by and among the Company, Avago Technologies Limited, a limited company organized under the laws of the Republic of Singapore (“Avago”), Avago Technologies Wireless (U.S.A.) Manufacturing Inc., a Delaware corporation and an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Avago (“Parent”) and Leopold Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), providing for the merger of Merger Sub with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company surviving the Merger as an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of Avago. The Merger Agreement was unanimously approved by the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”).

At the effective time of the Merger, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, each share of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 (“Company Common Stock”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to such time (other than shares of Company Common Stock held by the Company as treasury stock or directly owned by Parent or Merger Sub, which will be cancelled, and shares of the Company Common Stock with respect to which appraisal rights are properly exercised and not withdrawn under Delaware law) shall be automatically cancelled and converted into the right to receive $11.15 in cash, without interest.

Consummation of the Merger is subject to customary conditions, including without limitation (i) the required approval of the Merger Agreement by the Company’s stockholders, (ii) the expiration or early termination of the waiting period applicable to the consummation of the Merger under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1974, as amended, and the receipt of regulatory clearance under certain foreign antitrust laws, (iii) the absence of any law or order that is in effect and restrains, enjoins or otherwise prohibits the Merger, (iv) the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the parties and compliance by the parties with their respective obligations under the Merger Agreement (subject to customary materiality qualifiers), (v) the conclusion of any review by the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States, (vi) the absence of certain pending proceedings by a governmental authority with respect to the Merger; and (vii) the absence of any change, event or occurrence that has had or would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the Company.

Avago intends to fund the transaction with $1 billion of cash from the combined balance sheet and fully-committed financing from the following sources: a (i) $4.6 billion term loan from a group of banks; and (ii) $1 billion investment from Silver Lake Partners IV, L.P., which is expected to be in the form of a seven year 2% convertible note with a conversion price of $48.04 per share or preferred stock with equivalent economic terms.

The Company has made customary representations and warranties and covenants in the Merger Agreement. Among other things, the Company may not solicit or initiate discussions (and has agreed to cease any existing discussions) with third parties regarding other proposals to acquire the Company and has agreed to certain restrictions on its ability to respond to such proposals. In addition, until the termination of the Merger Agreement or the effective time of the Merger, the Company has agreed to operate its business in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice and has agreed to certain other negative covenants.

The Merger Agreement contains certain termination rights for the Company and Parent. Upon termination of the Merger Agreement under specified circumstances, the Company will be required to pay Parent a termination fee of $200 million. The Merger Agreement also provides that Parent will be required to pay the Company a reverse termination fee of $400 million under certain circumstances specified in the Merger Agreement. In addition to the foregoing termination rights, either party may terminate the Merger Agreement if the Merger is not consummated before September 23, 2014.

The representations, warranties and covenants of the Company contained in the Merger Agreement have been made solely for the benefit of Avago, Parent and Merger Sub. In addition, such representations, warranties and covenants (i) have been made only for purposes of the Merger Agreement; (ii) have been qualified by matters specifically disclosed in any reports filed by the Company with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) prior to the date of the Merger Agreement and confidential disclosures made to Avago, Parent and Merger Sub in connection with the Merger Agreement negotiations; (iii) are subject to materiality qualifications contained in the Merger Agreement that may differ from what may be viewed as material by investors; (iv) were made only as of the date of the Merger Agreement or such other date as is specified in the Merger Agreement; and (v) have been included in the Merger Agreement for the purpose of allocating risk between the contracting parties rather than establishing matters as fact. Accordingly, the Merger Agreement is included with this filing only to provide investors with information regarding the terms of the Merger Agreement, and not to provide investors with any other factual information regarding the Company or its business. Investors should not rely on the representations, warranties and covenants or any descriptions thereof as characterizations of the actual state of facts or condition of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of the representations and warranties may change after the date of the Merger Agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in the Company’s public disclosures. The Merger Agreement should not be read alone, but should instead be read in conjunction with the other information regarding the Company that is or will be contained in, or incorporated by reference into, the Forms 10-K, Forms 10-Q and other documents that the Company files or has filed with the SEC.

The foregoing description of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the Merger Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1, which is incorporated herein by reference.

The foregoing review of important factors that could cause actual events to differ from expectations should not be construed as exhaustive and should be read in conjunction with statements that are included herein and elsewhere, including the risk factors included in LSI’s and Avago’s respective most recent Annual Reports on Form 10-K, and LSI’s and Avago’s more recent reports filed with the SEC. LSI and Avago can give no assurance that the conditions to the Merger will be satisfied.

Section 3.02 Election Procedures; Surrender and Payment.

(a) Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall select a reputable bank or trust company to act as Paying Agent in the Merger (the “Paying Agent”) for the payment of (i) the Merger Consideration in respect of each share of Company Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time represented by a Certificate and each Book Entry Share outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, in each case, other than the Cancelled Shares and except for any Dissenting Shares and (ii) the Option Consideration and RSU Consideration payable by the Paying Agent pursuant to Section 3.05. Prior to the Effective Time, Ultimate Parent shall cause Parent to, and Parent shall, deposit or cause to be deposited with the Paying Agent cash in an amount sufficient to pay the aggregate Merger Consideration, RSU Consideration and Option Consideration required to be paid by the Paying Agent in accordance with this Agreement (such cash shall be referred to in this Agreement as the “Exchange Fund”). In the event the Exchange Fund shall be insufficient to make the payments in connection with the Merger Consideration contemplated by Section 3.01 or the Option Consideration or RSU Consideration contemplated by Section 3.05, Ultimate Parent shall cause Parent to, and Parent shall, promptly deposit or cause to be deposited additional funds with the Paying Agent in an amount that is equal to the deficiency in the amount required to make such payment. The Paying Agent shall, pursuant to irrevocable instructions, deliver the Merger Consideration contemplated to be issued pursuant to Section 3.01 and the Option Consideration and RSU Consideration contemplated to be issued pursuant to Section 3.05 out of the Exchange Fund. The Exchange Fund shall not be used for any other purpose.

(b) As soon as reasonably practicable after the Effective Time and in any event not later than the fifth Business Day following the Effective Time, Parent will cause the Paying Agent to send to each holder of record of shares of Company Common Stock (other than the Cancelled Shares and except for any Dissenting Shares) (i) a letter of transmittal (which shall specify that delivery shall be effected, and risk of loss and title to the Certificates shall pass, only upon proper delivery of the Certificates (or effective affidavits of loss in lieu thereof) or Book-Entry Shares to the Paying Agent) in such form as Parent and the Company may reasonably agree, for use in effecting delivery of shares of Company Common Stock to the Paying Agent, and (ii) instructions for use in effecting the surrender of Certificates (or effective affidavits of loss in lieu thereof) or Book-Entry Shares in exchange for the Merger Consideration.

(c) Upon (i) surrender to the Paying Agent of Certificates (or effective affidavits of loss in lieu thereof) for cancellation, together with such letter of transmittal, duly completed and validly executed in accordance with the instructions thereto, and such other documents as may be reasonably required pursuant to such instructions or (ii) compliance with the reasonable procedures established by the Paying Agent for delivery of Book-Entry Shares, the holder of such Certificates or Book-Entry Shares shall be entitled to receive in exchange therefor, in cash, the aggregate Merger Consideration in respect of each share of Company Common Stock formerly represented by such Certificate or Book-Entry Share, and the Certificates or Book-Entry Shares so surrendered shall forthwith be cancelled. No interest shall be paid or will accrue on any cash payable to holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares pursuant to the provisions of this Article 3.

(d) If any cash payment is to be made to a Person other than the Person in whose name the applicable surrendered Certificate is registered, it shall be a condition of such payment that the Person requesting such payment shall pay any transfer Taxes required by reason of the

20

making of such cash payment to a Person other than the registered holder of the surrendered Certificate or shall establish to the satisfaction of the Paying Agent that such Tax has been paid or is not payable. If any portion of the Merger Consideration is to be registered in the name of a Person other than the Person in whose name the applicable surrendered Certificate is registered, it shall be a condition to the registration thereof that the surrendered Certificate shall be properly endorsed or otherwise be in proper form for transfer and that the Person requesting such delivery of the Merger Consideration shall pay to the Paying Agent any transfer Taxes required as a result of such registration in the name of a Person other than the registered holder of such Certificate or establish to the satisfaction of the Paying Agent that such Tax has been paid or is not payable.

(e) After the Effective Time, there shall be no further registration of transfers of shares of Company Common Stock. From and after the Effective Time, the holders of Certificates or Book-Entry Shares representing shares of Company Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time shall cease to have any rights with respect to such shares of Company Common Stock except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or by Applicable Law. If, after the Effective Time, Certificates are presented to the Paying Agent, the Surviving Corporation or Parent, they shall be cancelled and exchanged for the consideration provided for, and in accordance with the procedures set forth, in this Article 3.

(f) Any portion of the Exchange Fund that remains unclaimed by the holders of shares of Company Common Stock or holders of Cashed Out Compensatory Awards after the date which is one year following the Effective Time shall be returned to Parent upon demand. Any holder of shares of Company Common Stock who has not exchanged his shares of Company Common Stock for the Merger Consideration in accordance with this Section 3.02 and any holder of a Cashed Out Compensatory Award who has not received the Option Consideration and RSU Consideration in accordance with Section 3.05 prior to that time shall thereafter look only to Parent for delivery of the Merger Consideration, RSU Consideration or Option Consideration in respect of such holder’s shares of Company Common Stock or Cashed Out Compensatory Award. Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of Ultimate Parent, Parent, the Company or the Surviving Corporation shall be liable to any holder of shares of Company Common Stock or Cashed Out Compensatory Awards for any Merger Consideration, RSU Consideration or Option Consideration delivered to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar laws. Any Merger Consideration, RSU Consideration or Option Consideration remaining unclaimed by holders of shares of Company Common Stock or holders of Cashed Out Compensatory Awards immediately prior to such time as such amounts would otherwise escheat to or become property of any Governmental Authority shall, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, become property of Parent free and clear of any claims or interest of any Person previously entitled thereto.

(g) Any portion of the Merger Consideration deposited with the Paying Agent pursuant to this Section 3.02 to pay for shares for which appraisal rights shall have been perfected shall be returned to Parent upon demand.

(h) All Merger Consideration, RSU Consideration or Option Consideration issued and paid upon conversion of the Company Common Stock or the Cashed Out Compensatory Awards, respectively, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, shall be deemed to have been issued and paid in full satisfaction of all rights pertaining to such Company Common Stock or Cashed Out Compensatory Awards, as the case may be.

21

Section 3.03 Lost Certificates. If any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed, upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed and, if required by Parent or the Surviving Corporation, the posting by such Person of a bond, in such reasonable amount as the Surviving Corporation may reasonably direct, as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it with respect to such Certificate, the Paying Agent will issue in exchange for such lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate the Merger Consideration to be paid in respect of the shares of Company Common Stock represented by such Certificate as contemplated by this Article 3.

Section 3.04 Withholding Rights. Each of Ultimate Parent, Parent, Merger Sub and the Surviving Corporation shall be entitled to deduct and withhold, or cause the Paying Agent to deduct and withhold, from the consideration otherwise payable to any Person pursuant to this Agreement such amounts as it is required to deduct and withhold with respect to the making of such payment pursuant to the Code or under any provision of federal, state, local or foreign Tax law. To the extent that amounts are so deducted or withheld and paid over to the appropriate taxing authority by Ultimate Parent, Parent, Merger Sub, the Surviving Corporation or the Paying Agent, as the case may be, such deducted or withheld amounts shall be treated for all purposes of this Agreement as having been paid to the Person in respect of which such deduction and withholding was made.

Section 3.05 Treatment of Company Compensatory Awards.

(a) At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holders thereof, each In-the-Money Company Option that is outstanding and vested (including any unvested Company Options that are not assumed pursuant to Section 3.05(b) and vest in connection with the Transaction contemplated by this Agreement by virtue of such non-assumption pursuant to the terms of the applicable Company Stock Plan) as of immediately prior to the Effective Time other than Company Options set forth in Section 3.05(a) of the Company Disclosure Schedule (“Cashed Out Company Options”) shall be cancelled immediately prior to the Effective Time and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to the product obtained by multiplying (i) the aggregate number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company Option immediately prior to the Effective Time and (ii) the excess, if any, of the Merger Consideration less the exercise price per share of such Company Option (the “Option Consideration”). In the event that any Cashed Out Company Option is subject to Section 409A of the Code, as jointly determined by Parent and the Company, the payment of the amount of cash with respect thereto shall be delayed to the extent necessary to comply with Section 409A of the Code. Each holder of an outstanding In-the-Money Company Option shall be entitled to receive in exchange for the cancellation thereof the Option Consideration with respect to each share of Company Common Stock subject to such outstanding In-the-Money Company Option and the Company shall cause such payment to be made to the holder of such Company Option, if a current or former employee of the Company, through the payroll system of the Surviving Corporation or, if not a current or former employee of the Company, through the Paying Agent, in each case, payable as soon as practicable following the Closing Date (and, in the case of current or former employees of the Company, in no event later than the next regularly scheduled payroll run of the Surviving Corporation following the Closing Date).

22

(b) At the Effective Time, each Company Option that is either outstanding and unvested immediately prior to the Effective Time and is held by an Acquired Company Employee or Acquired Company Service Provider or set forth in Section 3.05(b) of the Company Disclosure Schedule shall be assumed by Ultimate Parent and converted automatically at the Effective Time into an option denominated in Ultimate Parent Ordinary Shares having the same terms and conditions as the Company Option (each, an “Assumed Option”), except that (i) each such Assumed Option will be exercisable (or will become exercisable in accordance with its terms) for that number of whole Ultimate Parent Ordinary Shares equal to the product of (A) the number of shares of Company Common Stock that were issuable upon exercise of such Company Option immediately prior to the Effective Time, multiplied by (B) a fraction (such ratio, the “Exchange Ratio”), the numerator of which is the Merger Consideration and the denominator of which is the volume weighted average price for an Ultimate Parent Ordinary Share for the five trading days immediately prior to (and excluding) the Closing Date as reported by Bloomberg, L.P., and rounding such product down to the nearest whole number of Ultimate Parent Ordinary Shares, (ii) the per share exercise price for the Ultimate Parent Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of such Assumed Option will be equal to the quotient determined by dividing (A) the exercise price per share of Company Common Stock at which such Company Option was exercisable immediately prior to the Effective Time by (B) the Exchange Ratio, and rounding such quotient up to the nearest whole cent and (iii) all references to the “Company” in the applicable Company Stock Plans and the stock option agreements will be references to Ultimate Parent. The Company will not take any action to accelerate the vesting of any Company Options (other than to implement any existing agreements or arrangements for such acceleration in effect as of the date of this Agreement). As soon as reasonably practicable, Ultimate Parent will use reasonable best efforts to issue to each Person who holds an Assumed Option a document evidencing the foregoing assumption of such Company Option by Ultimate Parent.

(c) All Company Options which are not In-the-Money Company Options or Assumed Options shall be cancelled as of immediately prior to the Effective Time in exchange for no consideration. In no event shall the Company Options described in this Section 3.05(c) be assumed by Ultimate Parent.

(d) At the Effective Time each Company RSU that is outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and is held by an Acquired Company Employee or Acquired Company Service Provider shall be assumed by Ultimate Parent and converted automatically at the Effective Time into a restricted stock unit denominated in Ultimate Parent Ordinary Shares having the same terms and conditions as the Company RSU (each, an “Assumed RSU”), except that (i) each such Company RSU will entitle the holder, upon settlement, to that number of whole Ultimate Parent Ordinary Shares equal to the product of (A) the number of shares of Company Common Stock that were issuable with regard to such Company RSU immediately prior to the Effective Time, multiplied by (B) the Exchange Ratio, and rounding such product down to the nearest whole number of Ultimate Parent Ordinary Shares, (ii) all references to the “Company” in the applicable Company Stock Plans and the Company RSU agreements will be references to Ultimate Parent and (iii) the

23

performance-based vesting criteria, if any, shall be deemed met at the Effective Time with respect to such Company RSU at a level that would result in the payout of a Target Award (as defined in the applicable award agreement relating to such Company RSU as in effect on the date of this Agreement). The Company will not take any action to accelerate the vesting of any Company RSU (other than to implement any existing agreements or arrangements for such acceleration in effect as of the date of this Agreement). As soon as reasonably practicable, Ultimate Parent will issue to each Person who holds an assumed Company RSU a document evidencing the foregoing assumption of such Company RSU by Ultimate Parent.

(e) At the Effective Time, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holders thereof, each Company RSU that is not an Assumed RSU (“Cashed Out Company RSUs” and together with Cashed Out Company Options, “Cashed Out Compensatory Awards”) shall vest in full and be cancelled immediately prior to the Effective Time and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to the product obtained by multiplying (i) the aggregate number of shares of Company Common Stock subject to such Company RSU immediately prior to the Effective Time and (ii) the Merger Consideration (the “RSU Consideration”). In the event that any Cashed Out Company RSU is subject to Section 409A of the Code, as jointly determined by Parent and the Company, the payment of the amount of cash with respect thereto shall be delayed to the extent necessary to comply with Section 409A of the Code. Each holder of an outstanding Cashed Out Company RSU shall be entitled to receive in exchange for the cancellation thereof the RSU Consideration with respect to each share of Company Common Stock subject to such outstanding Company RSU and the Company shall cause such payment to be made to the holder of such Company RSU, if a current or former employee of the Company, through the payroll system of the Surviving Corporation or, if not a current or former employee of the Company, through the Paying Agent, in each case, payable as soon as practicable following the Closing Date (and, in the case of current or former employees of the Company, in no event later than the next regularly scheduled payroll run of the Surviving Corporation following the Closing Date).

(f) At the Effective Time, each share of Company Common Stock issued in connection with a Company Compensatory Award, which share is then subject to vesting or other lapse restrictions (collectively, the “Company Restricted Stock”) shall, by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of the holder thereof, be cancelled and converted into the right to receive a cash payment, from Ultimate Parent, upon vesting, equal to the Merger Consideration (the “Company Restricted Cash”). Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, the Company Restricted Cash shall have the same terms and conditions as the Company Restricted Stock.

(g) Not less than 30 days prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall send a written notice in a form reasonably acceptable to Parent to each holder of an outstanding Company Option or Company RSU that shall inform such holder of the treatment of the Company Options and Company RSUs provided in this Section 3.05.

(h) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 3.05 or otherwise in this Agreement to the contrary, the conversion of Company Options and Company RSUs provided for in this Section 3.05 shall be effected in a manner consistent with Section 409A of the Code.

24

(i) Following the Effective Time, no holder of a Company Compensatory Award or any participant in any Company Stock Plan, or other Company Employee Plan or employee benefit arrangement of the Company or under any employment agreement shall have any right hereunder to acquire any capital stock or other equity interests (including any “phantom” stock or stock appreciation rights) in the Company, any of its Subsidiaries or the Surviving Corporation.

Section 3.06 Dissenting Shares.

(a) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, with respect to each share of Company Common Stock as to which the holder thereof shall have (i) not voted in favor of the Merger, (ii) properly complied with the provisions of Section 262 of the DGCL as to appraisal rights or (iii) not effectively withdrawn or lost its rights to appraisal (each, a “Dissenting Share”), if any, such holder shall be entitled to payment, solely from the Surviving Corporation, of the appraisal value of the Dissenting Shares to the extent permitted by and in accordance with the provisions of Section 262 of the DGCL; provided, however, that (x) if any holder of Dissenting Shares, under the circumstances permitted by and in accordance with the DGCL, affirmatively withdraws or loses (through failure to perfect or otherwise) the right to dissent or its right for appraisal of such Dissenting Shares, (y) if any holder of Dissenting Shares fails to establish his entitlement to appraisal rights as provided in the DGCL or (z) if any holder of Dissenting Shares takes or fails to take any action the consequence of which is that such holder is not entitled to payment for his shares under the DGCL, such holder or holders (as the case may be) shall forfeit the right to appraisal of such shares of Company Common Stock and such shares of Company Common Stock shall thereupon cease to constitute Dissenting Shares, and each such share of Company Common Stock shall, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, thereafter be deemed to have been converted into and to have become, as of the Effective Time, the right to receive, without interest thereon, the Merger Consideration.

(b) The Company shall give Parent prompt notice of any written demands received by the Company for appraisal of shares of Company Common Stock and the right to participate in all negotiations and proceedings with respect to such demands for appraisal under Section 262 of the DGCL. The Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of Parent, (i) voluntarily make any payment with respect to any demands for appraisal for Dissenting Shares, (ii) offer to settle any such demands, (iii) waive any failure to timely deliver a written demand for appraisal in accordance with the DGCL or (iv) agree to do any of the foregoing.

Section 6.02 Stockholder Approval; Notice.

(a) The Company shall take all action in accordance with Applicable Law and the certificate of incorporation and bylaws of the Company to establish a record date, duly call, give notice of, convene and hold a meeting of the holders of Company Common Stock to vote on the adoption of this Agreement (the “Company Stockholder Meeting”). The Company Stockholder Meeting shall be held on a date selected by the Company in consultation with Parent as promptly as reasonably practicable, and in any event (to the extent permissible under Applicable Law) the Original Date shall be within 45 days following the date on which the Proxy Statement is cleared by the SEC, for the purpose of obtaining the Required Company Stockholder Approval. The Company shall (i) ensure that the Company Stockholder Meeting is called, noticed, convened, held and conducted, and that all Persons solicited in connection with the Company Stockholder Meeting are solicited, in compliance with all Applicable Law and (ii) subject to and without limiting the rights of the Company Board of Directors to effect a Change of Board Recommendation pursuant to Section 6.03(f),

52

use reasonable best efforts to solicit from its stockholders proxies in favor of the adoption of this Agreement and to obtain the Required Company Stockholder Approval, including such actions as are required by Applicable Law. The adoption of this Agreement, the adjournment of the Company Stockholder Meeting, as necessary, to solicit additional proxies if there are insufficient votes in favor of adoption of this Agreement, and the advisory vote required by Rule 14a-21(c) under the Exchange Act shall be the only matters which the Company shall propose to be acted on by the Company’s stockholders at the Company Stockholder Meeting unless otherwise approved in writing by Parent.

(b) The Company shall consult with Parent regarding the date of the Company Stockholder Meeting and shall not postpone or adjourn the Company Stockholder Meeting without the prior written consent of Parent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); provided, however, if on the date for which the Company Stockholder Meeting is scheduled (the “Original Date”), the Company has not received proxies representing a sufficient number of shares for the Required Company Stockholder Approval, whether or not a quorum is present, Parent shall have the right to require the Company, and the Company shall have the right, to postpone or adjourn the Company Stockholder Meeting to a date which shall not be more than 30 days after the Original Date. If the Company continues not to receive proxies representing a sufficient number of shares for the Required Company Stockholder Approval, whether or not a quorum is present, the Company may, in its sole discretion, make one or more successive postponements or adjournments of the Company Stockholder Meeting as long as the date of the Company Stockholder Meeting is not postponed or adjourned to a date beyond the End Date in reliance on this subsection. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company may postpone or adjourn the Company Stockholder Meeting if (i) the Company is required to postpone or adjourn the Company Stockholder Meeting by Applicable Law or (ii) the Company Board of Directors or any authorized committee thereof shall have determined in good faith (after consultation with outside legal counsel) that it is necessary or appropriate to postpone or adjourn the Company Stockholder Meeting in order to give Company Stockholders sufficient time to evaluate any information or disclosure that the Company has sent to Company Stockholders or otherwise made available to Company Stockholders by issuing a press release, filing materials with the SEC or otherwise (including in connection with any Change of Board Recommendation).

(c) Subject to Section 6.03: (i) the Proxy Statement shall include the Company Board Recommendation and (ii) the Company Board Recommendation shall not be withdrawn, modified or qualified in any manner adverse to Parent, and no resolution by the Company Board of Directors or any committee thereof to withdraw or modify the Company Board Recommendation in a manner adverse to Parent shall be adopted or proposed (any of the foregoing a “Change of Board Recommendation”).

(d) Nothing contained in this Section 6.02 shall prohibit the Company Board of Directors from disclosing to the stockholders of the Company a position contemplated by Rule 14e-2(a) and Rule 14d-9 promulgated under the Exchange Act; provided, however, that any disclosure other than a “stop, look and listen” or similar communication of the type contemplated by Rule 14d-9(f) under the Exchange Act, an express rejection of any applicable Acquisition Proposal or an express reaffirmation of the Company’s recommendation to the stockholders of the Company in favor of the adoption of the Agreement, together with a factual description of

53

events or actions leading up to such disclosure that have been taken by the Company and that are permitted under Section 6.03 or actions taken or notices delivered to Ultimate Parent or Parent by the Company that are required by Section 6.03 shall, in each case, be deemed to be a Change of Board Recommendation hereunder, including for purposes of Section 9.01(f).

(e) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company agrees that, unless this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Section 9.01, (i) the Company’s obligation to duly call, give notice of, convene and hold the Company Stockholder Meeting shall not be affected by the withdrawal, amendment or modification of the Company Board Recommendation and (ii) the Company’s obligations pursuant to this Section 6.02 shall not be affected by the commencement, public proposal, public disclosure or communication to the Company of any Acquisition Proposal (whether or not a Superior Proposal). Unless this Agreement is terminated in accordance with Section 9.01, the Company agrees that it shall not submit to the vote of the stockholders of the Company any Acquisition Proposal (whether or not a Superior Proposal) prior to the vote of the Company’s stockholders with respect to the adoption of this Agreement at the Company Stockholder Meeting.

Section 6.03 No Solicitation.

(a) The Company shall, and shall cause each of its Representatives and each of the other Acquired Companies (and each of their respective Representatives) to, immediately cease and cause to be terminated any and all existing activities, discussions or negotiations with any Persons (other than Ultimate Parent, Parent and their Representatives) conducted on or prior to the date of this Agreement with respect to any Acquisition Proposal, and shall promptly after the date of this Agreement instruct each Person that has in the twelve months prior to the date of this Agreement executed a confidentiality agreement relating to an Acquisition Proposal with or for the benefit of the Company to promptly return or destroy, in accordance with the terms of such confidentiality agreement, all information, documents and materials relating to the Acquisition Proposal or to the Acquired Companies and their businesses previously furnished by or on behalf of the Acquired Companies or any of their respective Representatives to such Person or such Person’s Representatives. Promptly following the date of this Agreement, the Company shall provide Parent with a certificate signed by the Company’s Chief Executive Officer that shall certify the Company’s compliance with this Section 6.03(a).

(b) Except as expressly permitted by this Section 6.03, from the date of this Agreement until the earlier of the Effective Time or the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 9.01, the Company shall not, and shall cause each of its Representatives and each of the other Acquired Companies (and each of their respective Representatives) not to, directly or indirectly: (i) solicit, initiate, seek or knowingly encourage, facilitate, induce or support, or knowingly take any action to solicit, initiate, seek or knowingly encourage, facilitate, induce or support any announcement, communication, inquiry, expression of interest, proposal or offer that constitutes or that could reasonably be expected to lead to, an Acquisition Proposal from any Person (other than Ultimate Parent, Parent and their Representatives); (ii) enter into, participate in, maintain or continue any discussions or negotiations relating to, any Acquisition Proposal with any Person (other than Ultimate Parent, Parent and their Representatives), other than solely to state that the Acquired Companies and their Representatives are prohibited hereunder from engaging in any such discussions or negotiations; (iii) furnish to any Person

54

(other than Ultimate Parent, Parent and their Representatives) any non-public information that could reasonably be expected to be used for the purposes of formulating any inquiry, expression of interest, proposal or offer relating to an Acquisition Proposal from a Person (other than any information disclosed in the ordinary course consistent with past practices and not known by the Company to be used for the purposes of formulating any inquiry, expression of interest, proposal or offer relating to an Acquisition Proposal); (iv) accept any Acquisition Proposal or enter into any agreement, arrangement or understanding relating to any Acquisition Proposal (other than a confidentiality agreement pursuant to Section 6.03(d)) with any Person (other than Ultimate Parent, Parent and their Representatives); or (v) submit any Acquisition Proposal or any matter related thereto to the vote of the stockholders of the Company.

(c) From the date of this Agreement until the earlier of the Effective Time or the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 9.01, the Company shall promptly (and in any event within 24 hours) provide Parent with: a copy (if in writing) or written summary of material terms (if oral, which written summary may be delivered by email) of any expression of interest, proposal or offer relating to an Acquisition Proposal (including any material modification thereto, which shall include any communications as to the proposed amount or form of consideration, financing terms, if any, and closing conditions), or a copy (if in writing) or written summary (if oral, which written summary may be delivered by email) of any request for non-public information that could reasonably be expected to be used for the purposes of formulating any inquiry, expression of interest, proposal or offer relating to an Acquisition Proposal from a Person (other than any information disclosed in the ordinary course consistent with past practices and not known by the Company to be used for the purposes of formulating any inquiry, expression of interest, proposal or offer relating to an Acquisition Proposal), that is received by any Acquired Company or any Representative of any Acquired Company from any Person (other than Parent), including in such description the identity of the Person from which such inquiry, expression of interest, proposal, offer or request for information was received (the “Other Interested Party”). Without limiting the foregoing, the Company shall promptly (and in any event within 24 hours) notify Parent orally and in writing (which may be by email) if the Company determines to begin providing information or to engage in discussions or negotiations concerning an Acquisition Proposal pursuant to Section 6.03(d).

(d) Notwithstanding Section 6.03(b), if at any time prior to the adoption of this Agreement by the Required Company Stockholder Approval: (i) the Company has received a bona fide written Acquisition Proposal from a third party; (ii) the Company has not materially breached this Section 6.03; (iii) the Company Board of Directors determines in good faith, after consultation with its financial advisors and outside counsel, that such Acquisition Proposal constitutes or is reasonably likely to result in a Superior Proposal; and (iv) after consultation with its outside counsel, the Company Board of Directors determines in good faith that such action is necessary to comply with its fiduciary duties to the stockholders of the Company under the DGCL, then the Company may (A) furnish information with respect to the Acquired Companies to the Person making such Acquisition Proposal and its Representatives and (B) participate in discussions or negotiations with the Person making such Acquisition Proposal and its Representatives regarding such Acquisition Proposal; provided that the Company (x) shall not, and shall not allow any of its Representatives or any other Acquired Company or any of its Representatives to, disclose any information to such Person without first entering into a confidentiality agreement containing customary limitations on the use and disclosure of all

55

nonpublic written and oral information furnished to such Person by or on behalf of any of the Acquired Companies and containing “standstill” provisions no less favorable to the Company than the “standstill” provisions contained in the Confidentiality Agreement and (y) shall promptly provide to Parent any information concerning the Acquired Companies provided to such other Person which was not previously provided to Parent.

(e) The Company shall not, and shall cause each other Acquired Company not to, terminate, waive, amend or modify any provision of, or grant permission under, any standstill or confidentiality agreement to which any Acquired Company is a party, and the Company shall, and shall cause each other Acquired Company to, enforce the provisions of each such agreement.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, at any time prior to the adoption of this Agreement by the Required Company Stockholder Approval, the Company Board of Directors may make a Change of Board Recommendation for a reason unrelated to an Acquisition Proposal (it being understood and agreed that any Change of Board Recommendation proposed to be made in relation to an Acquisition Proposal may only be made pursuant to and in accordance with the terms of Section 6.03(g)) if the Company Board of Directors has determined in good faith, after consultation with its outside counsel, that, in light of an Intervening Event and taking into account the results of any negotiations with Parent as contemplated by clause (ii) below and any offer from Parent contemplated by clause (iii) below, that such action is necessary to comply with fiduciary duties owed by the Company Board of Directors to the stockholders of the Company under the DGCL; provided, however, that the Company Board of Directors may not withdraw, modify or amend the Company Board Recommendation in a manner adverse to Ultimate Parent or Parent pursuant to the foregoing unless:

(i) the Company shall have provided prior written notice to Parent, at least four Business Days in advance (the “Intervening Event Notice Period”), of the Company’s intention to make a Change of Board Recommendation (it being understood that the delivery of such notice and any amendment or update thereto and the determination to so deliver such notice, update or amendment shall not, by itself, constitute a Change of Board Recommendation or otherwise give rise to a Triggering Event), which notice shall specify the Company Board of Directors’ reason for proposing to effect such Change of Board Recommendation;

(ii) prior to effecting such Change of Board Recommendation, the Company shall, and shall cause the Company Representatives to, during the Intervening Event Notice Period negotiate with Parent in good faith (to the extent Parent desires to negotiate) to make such adjustments in the terms and conditions of this Agreement in such a manner that would obviate the need for the Company Board of Directors to effect such Change of Board Recommendation; and

(iii) Parent shall not have, within the aforementioned four Business Day period, made a written, binding and irrevocable (through the expiration of such period) offer to modify the terms and conditions of this Agreement that the Company Board of Directors has in good faith determined (after consultation with its outside legal counsel and its financial advisor) would obviate the need for the Company Board of Directors to effect such Change of Board Recommendation.

56

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if the Company receives an Acquisition Proposal that the Company Board of Directors determines in good faith, after consultation with outside counsel and its financial advisors, constitutes a Superior Proposal, after giving effect to all of the adjustments to the terms of this Agreement that may be offered by Parent (including pursuant to clause (ii) below), the Company Board of Directors may at any time prior to the adoption of this Agreement by the Required Company Stockholder Approval, if the Company Board of Directors determines in good faith, after consultation with outside counsel, that such action is necessary to comply with fiduciary duties owed by the Company Board of Directors to the stockholders of the Company under the DGCL, (y) effect a Change of Board Recommendation with respect to such Superior Proposal or (z) terminate this Agreement to enter into a definitive agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal; provided, however, that the Company shall not terminate this Agreement pursuant to the foregoing clause (z), and any purported termination pursuant to the foregoing clause (z) shall be void and of no force or effect, unless the Company complies with the provisions of Section 9.01(g) and Section 9.03 in the time frames specified therein; and provided, further that the Company Board of Directors may not withdraw, modify or amend the Company Board Recommendation in a manner adverse to Ultimate Parent or Parent pursuant to the foregoing clause (y) or terminate this Agreement pursuant to the foregoing clause (z) unless (A) the Acquired Companies shall not have materially breached this Section 6.03 and (B):

(i) the Company shall have provided prior written notice to Parent, at least four Business Days in advance (the “Notice Period”), of the Company’s intention to take any action permitted under clause (y) or (z) above with respect to such Superior Proposal, which notice shall specify the material terms and conditions of such Superior Proposal (including the identity of the party making such Superior Proposal), and shall have contemporaneously provided a copy of the relevant proposed transaction agreements with the party making such Superior Proposal and all other material documents, including the definitive agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal (the “Alternative Acquisition Agreement”); and

(ii) prior to effecting such Change of Board Recommendation or terminating this Agreement to enter into a definitive agreement with respect to such Superior Proposal, the Company shall, and shall cause its Representatives to, during the Notice Period, negotiate with Parent in good faith (to the extent Parent desires to negotiate) to make such adjustments in the terms and conditions of this Agreement so that such Acquisition Proposal ceases to constitute a Superior Proposal. In the event of any revisions to the Superior Proposal, the Company shall be required to deliver a new written notice to Parent and to comply with the requirements of this Section 6.03(g) with respect to such new written notice, except that references to the four Business Day period above shall be deemed references to a two Business Day period.

For the avoidance of doubt, any actions taken by the Company in accordance with this Section 6.03(g)(B) shall not be deemed to constitute a Change of Board Recommendation.

57

(h) Neither the Company nor the Company Board of Directors shall take any action to exempt any Person (other than Parent, Merger Sub and their respective Affiliates) from the provisions of “control share acquisitions” contained in Section 203 of the DGCL or any other Anti-Takeover Law or otherwise cause such restrictions not to apply, in each case unless such actions are taken simultaneously with a termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.01(g).

(i) The Company agrees that any violation of the restrictions set forth in this Section 6.03 by any Representative of any of the Acquired Companies shall be deemed to be a breach of this Agreement (including this Section 6.03) by the Company.

Section 6.04 Access to Information. Subject to Applicable Law, from the date of this Agreement until the Effective Time, upon reasonable notice and during normal business hours, the Company shall and shall cause each other Acquired Company to (a) give Parent and its Representatives reasonable access to the offices, properties, books and records of the Acquired Companies, (b) furnish to Parent and its Representatives such financial and operating data and other information relating to the Acquired Companies as such Persons may reasonably request and (c) instruct the Representatives of the Acquired Companies to cooperate with Parent in its investigation of the Acquired Companies; provided, however, that the Acquired Companies shall not be required to provide access to any information or documents which would, in the reasonable judgment of the Company (after consultation with outside legal counsel), (i) breach any agreement with any Person to which the Acquired Companies are party or otherwise bound, (ii) constitute a waiver of the attorney-client or other privilege held by any of the Acquired Companies, or (iii) otherwise violate any Applicable Law (it being agreed that the Company shall give notice to Parent of the fact that it is withholding such information or documents pursuant to clauses (i) through (iii) above and thereafter the Company and Parent shall reasonably cooperate (including by entering into a joint defense or similar agreement) to cause such information to be provided in a manner that would not reasonably be expected to waive the applicable privilege or protection or violate the applicable restriction). Any investigation pursuant to this Section 6.04 shall be conducted in such manner as not to interfere unreasonably with the conduct of the business of the Acquired Companies. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Parent shall not have access to personnel records of the Acquired Companies relating to individual performance or evaluation records, medical histories or other information, the disclosure of which would result in the violation of Applicable Law.

Section 6.05 Termination of Employee Plans. Unless Parent directs the Company otherwise in writing no later than five Business Days prior to the Effective Time, the Company Board of Directors (or the board of directors of the applicable Acquired Company) shall adopt resolutions terminating, effective at least one day prior to the Effective Time, any Employee Plan qualified under Section 401(a) of the Code and containing a Code Section 401(k) cash or deferred arrangement (each, a “401(k) Plan”). Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall provide Parent with executed resolutions of its Board of Directors (or the board of directors of the applicable Acquired Company) authorizing such termination and amending any such 401(k) Plan commensurate with its termination to the extent necessary to comply with all Applicable Laws. The Company shall also take (and shall cause each applicable Acquired Company to take) such other actions in furtherance of the termination of each 401(k) Plan as Parent may reasonably require.

58

(i) cause the information supplied or to be supplied by or on behalf of Ultimate Parent, Parent and Merger Sub in writing expressly for inclusion or incorporation by reference in the Proxy Statement not to contain, on the date of the mailing to the Company’s stockholders and at the time of the Company Stockholder Meeting, any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading; and

(a) Ultimate Parent and the Company hereby acknowledge and agree to continue to be bound by the Mutual Confidentiality Agreement dated as of October 1, 2013, by and between Ultimate Parent and the Company (the “Confidentiality Agreement”).

(b) Without limiting any other provision of this Agreement, each of Ultimate Parent and the Company shall consult with the other and issue a joint press release with respect to the execution of this Agreement. Thereafter, neither the Company nor Ultimate Parent, nor any of their respective Subsidiaries, shall issue any press release or other announcement (to the extent not previously publicly disclosed or made in accordance with this Agreement) with respect to this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or any Acquisition Proposal without the prior consent of the other party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), except (i) as such press release or other announcement may be required by Applicable Law or the applicable rules of a national securities exchange, in which case the party required to issue the release or make the announcement shall use its reasonable best efforts to provide the other party with a reasonable opportunity to review and comment on such release or announcement in advance of its issuance or (ii) in connection with a Change of Board Recommendation if and to the extent permitted by the terms of this Agreement.

Section 7.04 Form S-8; ESPP; Assumption of Company Compensatory Awards.

(a) With respect to the Company Options and Company RSUs assumed pursuant to Section 3.05, Ultimate Parent shall prepare and file with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-8 with respect to the Ultimate Parent Ordinary Shares issuable upon exercise of the assumed Company Compensatory Awards promptly, but in any event no later than 15 Business Days, following the Effective Time. The Company and its counsel shall cooperate with and assist Ultimate Parent in the preparation of such registration statement. For the avoidance of doubt, the Form S-8 registration statement shall not cover any Cashed Out Compensatory Awards.

(b) The Company shall take such action as may be necessary to (i) cause any offering period (or similar period during which shares may be purchased) underway as of the date hereof under the Company ESPP to be terminated as of the last day of the payroll period ending immediately preceding the Effective Time (the “Final Exercise Date”); (ii) make any pro-rata adjustments that may be necessary to reflect the shortened offering period (or similar period), but otherwise treat such shortened offering period (or similar period) as a fully effective and completed offering period for all purposes under the Company ESPP; (iii) cause each participant’s shares purchase right under the Company ESPP (the “Company ESPP Rights”) to be exercised as of the Final Exercise Date; (iv) provide that no further offering periods (or similar period during which shares may be purchased) shall commence under the Company ESPP on or following the date of this Agreement; (v) provide that no individual who is not participating in the Company ESPP as of the date hereof may hereafter commence participation in the Company ESPP; and (vi) terminate the Company ESPP as of the Final Exercise Date. Each outstanding option under the Company ESPP on the Final Exercise Date shall be exercised on such date for the purchase of Company Common Stock in

64

accordance with the terms of the Company ESPP. On the Final Exercise Date, the funds credited as of such date under the Company ESPP within the associated accumulated payroll withholding account for each participant under the Company ESPP will be used to purchase shares in accordance with the terms of the Company ESPP, and each share purchased thereunder immediately prior to the Effective Time will be cancelled at the Effective Time and converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to Section 3.01, subject to withholding of applicable income and employment withholding Taxes. No further Company ESPP Rights will be granted or exercised under the Company ESPP after the Final Exercise Date (except for the right to receive the Merger Consideration pursuant to this Section 7.04(b)). The Company shall provide timely notice of the setting of the Final Exercise Date and termination of the Company ESPP in accordance with the Company ESPP.

(c) As soon as reasonably practicable following the date of this Agreement and in any event prior to the Effective Time, the Company Board of Directors (or, if appropriate, any committee administering the Company Stock Plans) shall adopt such resolutions that are necessary for the assumption and conversion of the Company Compensatory Awards and for the treatment of Cashed Out Compensatory Awards as set forth in Section 3.05.

Section 7.05 Indemnification of Officers and Directors.

(a) Parent and Merger Sub agree that, subject to Applicable Law, all rights to exculpation or indemnification for acts or omissions occurring prior to the Effective Time existing as of the date of this Agreement in favor of the current and former directors and officers of any Acquired Company and his heirs and personal representatives (each, a “D&O Indemnitee”), as provided in the Company’s or each of its Subsidiaries’ respective articles or certificates of incorporation or bylaws (or comparable organizational or governing documents) or in any agreement between any Acquired Company and such D&O Indemnitee, shall survive the Transaction and shall continue in full force and effect in accordance with their terms following the Effective Time, and Parent shall cause the Surviving Corporation to fulfill and honor such obligations to the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Law. In addition, for a period of six years following the Effective Time, Parent shall, and shall cause the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries to, cause the certificate of incorporation and bylaws (or comparable organizational or governing documents) of the Surviving Corporation and its Subsidiaries to contain provisions with respect to indemnification and exculpation that are at least as favorable as the indemnification and exculpation provisions contained in the certificate of incorporation and bylaws (or comparable organizational or governing documents) of the Company and its Subsidiaries, as applicable, immediately prior to the Effective Time, and during such six-year period, such provisions shall not be amended, repealed or otherwise modified in any manner that would adversely affect the rights of any D&O Indemnitee, except as required by Applicable Law.

(b) Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall obtain and fully pay the premium for the non-cancellable extension of the directors’ and officers’ liability coverage of the Company’s existing directors’ and officers’ insurance policies and the Company’s existing fiduciary liability insurance policies (collectively, the “D&O Insurance”), in each case for a claims reporting or discovery period of at least six years from and after the Effective Time with respect to any claim related to any period of time at or prior to the Effective

65

Time from an insurance carrier with the same or better credit rating as the Company’s current D&O Insurance carrier with respect to directors’ and officers’ liability insurance in an amount and scope at least as favorable as the Company’s existing policies; provided, however, that in no event shall the cost of such policies exceed 250% of the last annual premium paid therefor prior to the Effective Time; provided further, that if the annual premiums of such insurance coverage exceed such amount, the Company shall be obligated to obtain a policy with the greatest coverage available, with respect to matters occurring prior to the Effective Time, for a cost not exceeding such amount.

(c) The provisions of this Section 7.05 shall survive the Closing and are intended to be for the benefit of, and enforceable by, each D&O Indemnitee, and nothing in this Agreement shall affect any indemnification rights that any such D&O Indemnitee may have under the certificate of incorporation or bylaws of any Acquired Company or any Contract or Applicable Law. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the obligations under this Section 7.05 shall not be terminated or modified in such a manner as to adversely affect any D&O Indemnitee without the consent of such D&O Indemnitee.

(d) In the event that the Company, the Surviving Corporation or any of their Subsidiaries (or any of their respective successors or assigns) shall consolidate or merge with any other person and shall not be the continuing or surviving corporation or entity in such consolidation or merger, or transfers at least fifty percent (50%) of its properties and assets to any other person, then in each case proper provision shall be made so that the continuing or surviving corporation or entity (or its successors or assigns, if applicable), or transferee of such assets, as the case may be, shall, unless such corporation or entity (or its successors or assigns, if applicable) is otherwise bound by the obligations set forth in this Section 7.05 by Applicable Law, assume the obligations set forth in this Section 7.05.

Section 7.06 Section 16 Matters. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall take such actions as are required to cause the disposition of Company Common Stock, Company Options, Company RSUs or other convertible securities in connection with the Merger by each individual who is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act with respect to the Company to be exempt from Section 16(b) of the Exchange Act pursuant to Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act.

Section 7.07 Stockholder Litigation. The Company shall (a) keep Parent fully informed on a current basis regarding any stockholder litigation against the Company or its directors or officers relating to the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, whether commenced prior to or after the execution and delivery of this Agreement, and (b) give Parent the opportunity to participate in the defense or settlement of any such stockholder litigation.

Section 7.08 Financing.

(a) The Company agrees to use reasonable best efforts to provide such assistance (and to cause the other Acquired Companies, and to use reasonable best efforts to cause its and their respective Representatives, to provide such assistance) with the Debt Financing as is reasonably requested by Parent. Such assistance shall include, at the reasonable request of Parent, the following: (i) participation in, and assistance with, the Marketing Efforts related to

66

the Debt Financing; (ii) participation by senior management of the Acquired Companies in, and assistance with, the preparation of rating agency presentations and a reasonable number of meetings with rating agencies; (iii) timely delivery to Parent and its Financing Sources of the Financing Information by the times required in the Debt Commitment Letters; (iv) participation by senior management of the Company in the negotiation of the Debt Financing Documents (to the extent applicable) and the execution (to the extent applicable) and delivery of the Financing Deliverables; provided, that no obligation of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries under the agreement, pledge or grant pursuant to the Financing Deliverables shall be effective until the Effective Time; (v) taking such actions as may be required to permit any cash and marketable securities of the Acquired Companies available at the Effective Time to be made available to finance, in part, the Merger on the Closing Date; and (vi) using reasonable best efforts to ensure that the Debt Financing benefits from the existing lending relationships of the Acquired Companies. The Company will provide to Parent and its Financing Sources such information as may be necessary so that the Financing Information and Marketing Material (in the case of Marketing Material, to the extent related to the Acquired Companies and delivered to the Company) is complete and correct in all material respects and does not and will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements contained therein, in the light of the circumstances under which such statements are made, not materially misleading. The Company hereby consents to the use of all of its and its Subsidiaries’ logos in connection with the Debt Financing in a manner customary for the arrangement of financings similar to the Debt Financing; provided, that such logos are used solely in a manner that is not intended to harm or disparage the Company or any of its Affiliates or their reputation or goodwill. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, (i) neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall be required to pay any commitment or other similar fee or enter into any definitive agreement or incur any other liability or obligation in connection with the Debt Financing (or any alternative financing) prior to the Effective Time and (ii) none of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries shall be required to take any action that will conflict with or violate the Company’s or such Subsidiary’s organizational documents or any Applicable Laws or result in the contravention of, or that would reasonably be expected to result in a violation or breach of or default under, any Contract to which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries is a party. Parent shall reimburse the Company for any reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses and costs incurred in connection with the Company’s or its Affiliates’ obligations under this Section 7.08(a) promptly upon presentment of invoices therefor. The Company, its Affiliates and their respective Representatives (collectively, the “7.08 Indemnitees”) shall be indemnified and held harmless by Parent and Merger Sub for and against any and all losses, damages, claims, costs, expenses (including advancing attorneys’ fees and expenses in advance of the final disposition of any claim, suit, proceeding or investigation), interest, awards, judgments and penalties suffered or incurred by the 7.08 Indemnitees in connection with the arrangement of the Debt Financing (or any alternative financing) and/or any information provided by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries expressly for use in connection therewith, except to the extent such losses, damages, claims, costs, expenses, interest, awards, judgments or penalties arose out of or resulted from the fraud, willful misconduct, gross negligence or intentional misrepresentation of any 7.08 Indemnitee. Any information provided to Parent or any other Person pursuant to this Section shall be subject to the Confidentiality Agreement.

67

(b) Parent shall use reasonable best efforts to arrange the Debt Financing as promptly as practicable following the date of this Agreement and to consummate the Debt Financing on the Closing Date. Such actions shall include, but not be limited to, the following: (i) maintaining in effect the Debt Commitment Letters; provided that Parent may replace or amend any Debt Commitment Letter so long as such replacement or amendment would not adversely impact or delay in any material respect the ability of Parent to consummate the Merger or the Debt Financing; (ii) participation by senior management of Parent in, and assistance with, the preparation of rating agency presentations and meetings with rating agencies; (iii) satisfying on a timely basis all financing conditions that are within Parent’s or any of its Affiliates’ control; (iv) negotiating, executing and delivering Debt Financing Documents that reflect the terms contained in the Debt Commitment Letters (including any “market flex” provisions related thereto) or on such other terms acceptable to Parent and its Financing Sources; provided that such other terms would not adversely impact or delay in any material respect the ability of Parent to consummate the Merger or the Debt Financing; (v) drawing the full amount of the Debt Financing, in the event that the conditions set forth in Section 8.01 and Section 8.02 and the financing conditions have been satisfied or, upon funding would be satisfied; and (vi) using reasonable best efforts to enforce the Debt Commitment Letters to cause any lender to provide such Debt Financing. Parent shall give the Company prompt notice of any breach or repudiation by any party to the Debt Commitment Letters of which Parent or its Affiliates becomes aware; provided that in no event will Parent be under any obligation to disclose any information that is subject to any applicable legal privileges (including the attorney-client privilege). Without limiting Parent’s other obligations under this Section 7.08(b), if a Financing Failure Event occurs, then Parent shall (x) promptly notify the Company of such Financing Failure Event and the reasons therefor, (y) use reasonable best efforts to obtain alternative financing from alternative financing sources on terms (including structure, covenants and pricing) not materially less beneficial to Parent than the unavailable financing (giving effect to any “flex” provisions), in an amount sufficient to make the Closing Date Payments and consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, as promptly as practicable following the occurrence of such event, and (z) obtain, and when obtained, provide the Company with a copy of, a new financing commitment that provides for such alternative financing and the executed fee letter associated therewith (provided, that the fee amounts and other economic terms set forth in such fee letter, none of which could adversely affect the conditionality, enforceability, availability, termination or aggregate principal amount of the Debt Financing, may be redacted). Neither Parent nor any of its Affiliates shall amend, modify, supplement, restate, assign, substitute or replace any of the Debt Commitment Letters or any Debt Financing Document except for substitutions and replacements pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence.

Section 7.09 Employee Matters.

(a) For a period of one year following the Closing Date, Ultimate Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation to, provide each Acquired Company Employee with base salary, bonus opportunity, severance, health and welfare benefits which are no less favorable than the base salary, bonus opportunity, severance, health and welfare benefits each such Acquired Company Employee is entitled or eligible to receive from any Acquired Company as of immediately prior to the Effective Time.

68

(b) Ultimate Parent further agrees that, from and after the Closing Date, Ultimate Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation, to the extent permitted under such plans and under Applicable Law, to grant all of the Acquired Company Employees credit for any service with such Acquired Company earned prior to the Closing Date (i) for eligibility and vesting purposes and (ii) for purposes of vacation accrual and severance benefit determinations under any benefit or compensation plan, program, agreement or arrangement that may be established or that is maintained by Ultimate Parent or the Surviving Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries on or after the Closing Date (but not benefit accrual under any defined benefit plan or frozen benefit plan or vesting under any equity incentive plan) to the same extent as such Acquired Company Employee was entitled, before the Effective Time, to credit for such service under any similar plan in which such Acquired Company Employee participated or was eligible to participate immediately prior to the Effective Time; provided, however, that such service shall not be recognized or credited to the extent that such recognition would result in a duplication of benefits provided to the Acquired Company Employee, for purposes of qualifying for subsidized early retirement benefits or to the extent that such service was not recognized under any similar Employee Plan of the Company. In addition, for purposes of each benefit plan of Ultimate Parent or the Surviving Corporation or any of its Subsidiaries on or after the Closing Date (“Parent Plans”) providing medical, dental, pharmaceutical, vision and/or other health benefits to any Acquired Company Employee, Ultimate Parent shall use reasonable best efforts to (A) cause to be waived all pre-existing condition exclusions and actively-at-work requirements and similar limitations, eligibility waiting periods and evidence of insurability requirements to the extent waived or satisfied by an Acquired Company Employee and his or her covered dependents under any Employee Plan as of the Closing Date and (B) for the plan year in which the Effective Time occurs, cause any deductible, co-insurance and covered out-of-pocket expenses paid by any Acquired Company Employee (or covered dependent thereof) during the portion of the plan year in which such Acquired Company Employee participated in an Employee Plan to be taken into account for purposes of satisfying the corresponding deductible, coinsurance and maximum out-of-pocket provisions after the Closing Date under any applicable Parent Plan in the applicable plan year.

(c) As soon as administratively practicable following the Effective Time, all participants in any 401(k) Plan of the Company shall become participants in the comparable 401(k) Plan arrangement of Ultimate Parent or an Affiliate of Ultimate Parent, and Ultimate Parent shall establish or designate a comparable 401(k) Plan arrangement of Ultimate Parent or an Affiliate of Ultimate Parent to receive any rollover distributions from such 401(k) Plans of the Company, including rollover of any outstanding loans held by participants of such plans.

(d) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, as of the Effective Time, Ultimate Parent shall, or shall cause the Surviving Corporation, to honor the change in control and severance agreements, arrangements and policies set forth in Section 7.09 of the Company Disclosure Schedule (each a “Company Separation Agreement”), and to refrain from amending or terminating any such Company Separation Agreement prior to the first anniversary of the Effective Time, except such amendments as may be necessary to avoid the imposition of a tax under Section 409A of the Code; provided that, nothing herein shall prevent Ultimate Parent or an Affiliate of Ultimate Parent from amending any such agreement or plan thereafter in accordance with its terms.

69

(e) The provisions of this Section 7.09 are not intended to confer upon any person other than the parties hereto any rights or remedies hereunder or create any third-party beneficiary rights in any employee or former employee (including any beneficiary or dependent thereof) or service provider or former service provider (including any beneficiary or dependent thereof) of the Acquired Companies in any respect, including in respect of continued employment (or resumed employment), or create any such rights in any such persons in respect of any benefits that may be provided, directly or indirectly, under any Employee Plan, Parent Plan or any employee or service provider program or arrangement of Ultimate Parent or any of its subsidiaries (including any Employee Plan of the Company prior to the Effective Time), and nothing herein shall be deemed to amend any Employee Plan or Parent Plan to reflect the terms of this Section 7.09.

Section 7.10 Third Party Consents. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in connection with obtaining any approval or consent in connection with the Transaction that may be required from any Person under any Contract, (i) without the prior written consent of Parent (which such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), none of the Company or any Acquired Company shall pay or commit to pay to such Person whose approval or consent is being solicited any material cash or other consideration or incur any material liability or other obligation due to such Person (other than any payments which are expressly required pursuant to the terms of such Contract with such Person in effect as of the date of this Agreement) and (ii) none of Ultimate Parent, Parent or Merger Sub shall be required to pay or commit to pay to such Person whose approval or consent is being solicited any cash or other consideration, make any commitment or incur any liability or other obligation.

(d) Each of the Company, Ultimate Parent, Parent and Merger Sub acknowledges that (i) the agreements contained in this Section 9.03 are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) without these agreements, Ultimate Parent, Parent, Merger Sub and the Company would not enter into this Agreement and (iii) any amount payable pursuant to this Section 9.03 is not a penalty, but rather is liquidated damages in a reasonable amount that will compensate the Company, Ultimate Parent, Parent and Merger Sub in the circumstances in which such amount is payable.

Any amounts payable pursuant to this Section 9.03 shall be paid by wire transfer of same day funds in accordance with this Section 9.03 to an account designated by the party receiving the amounts payable pursuant to this Section 9.03, provided that such payments can be delayed and such delay will not give rise to a breach of a party’s obligations under this Section 9.03 if the party who is to receive the applicable payment fails to provide the paying party with wiring instructions at least two Business Days prior to the date such fee is to be paid. If the Company or Parent, as applicable, fails to pay when due any amount payable under this Section 9.03, then (i) such party shall reimburse the other party for all reasonable, documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including fees and disbursements of counsel) incurred in connection with the collection of such overdue amount and the enforcement by the other party of its rights under this Section 9.03 and (ii) such party shall pay to the other party interest on such overdue amount (for the period commencing as of the date such overdue amount was originally required to be paid and ending on the date such overdue amount is actually paid to Parent in full) at the rate of interest per annum equal to the “Prime Rate” as set forth on the date such payment became past due in The Wall Street Journal “Money Rates” column, plus 350 basis points.

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, but subject to the rights of Ultimate Parent, Parent and Merger Sub set forth in Section 10.02, if the Company fails to effect the Closing for any or no reason or otherwise breaches this Agreement or fails to perform hereunder, then the sole and exclusive remedy of Ultimate Parent, Parent and Merger Sub (whether at law, in equity, in contract, in tort or otherwise) against the Company for any breach, loss or damage shall be to terminate this Agreement as provided, and only to the extent provided, in Section 9.01, and either (i) receive payment of the Company Termination Fee and other amounts, if any, referenced in Section 9.03(e) and upon payment of the Company Termination Fee and such other amounts, no Person shall have any rights or claims against the Company under this Agreement or otherwise, whether at law or equity, in contract in tort or otherwise, and the Company shall not have any further liability relating to or arising out of this Agreement or the Transaction or (ii) seek damages in respect of a Willful Breach by the Company.

Nothing in this Section 9.03(i) shall in any way expand or be deemed or construed to expand the circumstances in which the Company or any other member of the Company Group may be liable under this Agreement or the Transaction (including the Debt Financing). For the avoidance of doubt, while Ultimate Parent, Parent or Merger Sub may pursue both a grant of specific performance of the type contemplated by Section 10.02 and either the payment of (y) the Company Termination Fee pursuant to Section 9.03(b)(i)–(iv), as the case may be, or (z) damages in respect of a Willful Breach by the Company, under no circumstances shall Ultimate Parent, Parent or Merger Sub be permitted or entitled to receive both a grant of specific performance of the type contemplated by Section 10.02 and monetary damages, including all or any portion of the Company Termination Fee or damages in respect of a Willful Breach.

Each of the parties agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief on the basis that any other party has an adequate remedy at law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a termination of this Agreement under circumstances in which the Parent Termination Fee is paid, the Company will not be entitled to seek or obtain a decree or order of specific performance to enforce the observance or performance of, and will not be entitled to seek or obtain an injunction restraining the breach of, or to seek or obtain damages or any other remedy at law or in equity relating to any breach of, any covenant or obligation of Ultimate Parent, Parent or Merger Sub. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a termination of this Agreement under circumstances in which the Company Termination Fee is paid, none of Ultimate Parent, Parent or Merger Sub will be entitled to seek or obtain a decree or order of specific performance to enforce the observance or performance of, and will not be entitled to seek or obtain an injunction restraining the breach of, or to seek or obtain damages or any other remedy at law or in equity relating to any breach of, any covenant or obligation of the Company.

(b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, subject to the Company’s right to seek specific performance of Parent’s and Ultimate Parent’s obligation to enforce the Debt Commitment in accordance with Section 7.08(b), the Company shall not be entitled to specific performance or any other equitable relief in order to cause Parent and Merger Sub to consummate the Merger or the Transaction unless:

(i) all of the conditions set forth in Section 8.01 and Section 8.02 (other than conditions which are to be satisfied by actions taken at the Closing) have been satisfied;

80

(ii) Parent and Merger Sub have failed to complete the Closing by the date the Closing is required to occur pursuant to Section 2.01;

(iii) the Debt Financing has been funded in accordance with the terms thereof or would be funded at the Closing; and

(iv) the Company has irrevocably confirmed to Parent in writing that if specific performance is granted and the Debt Financing is funded, then the Closing will occur.

Section 10.03 No Survival of Representations and Warranties. The representations and warranties of contained herein and in any certificate or other writing delivered at the Closing pursuant hereto shall not survive the Effective Time.

Section 10.04 Amendments and Waivers.

(a) Any provision of this Agreement may be amended or waived prior to the Effective Time if, but only if, such amendment or waiver is in writing and is signed, in the case of an amendment, by each party to this Agreement or, in the case of a waiver, by each party against whom the waiver is to be effective; provided, however, that no amendment or waiver shall be made subsequent to receipt of the Required Company Stockholder Approval which requires further approval of the stockholders of the Company pursuant to the DGCL without such further stockholder approval.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Section 9.03(f), Section 9.03(g), Section 9.03(j), Section 10.07 and Section 10.08(b) and this Section 10.04(b) (and any provision of this Agreement to the extent a modification, waiver or termination of such provision would modify the substance of Section 9.03(f), Section 9.03(g), Section 9.03(j), Section 10.07 and Section 10.08(b) and this Section 10.04(b)) may not be modified, waived or terminated in a manner that impacts or is adverse in any respect to the Financing Sources without the prior written consent of the Financing Sources.

(c) No failure or delay by any party in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. The rights and remedies herein provided shall be cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by Applicable Law.

Section 10.05 Disclosure Schedule References. The parties hereto agree that any reference in a particular Section of the Company Disclosure Schedule or Parent Disclosure Schedule, as the case may be, shall only be deemed to be an exception to (or, as applicable, a disclosure for purposes of) (a) the representations and warranties (or covenants, as applicable) of the relevant party that are contained in the corresponding Section of this Agreement and (b) any other representations and warranties of such party that are contained in this Agreement, but only if the relevance of that reference as an exception to (or a disclosure for purposes of) such representations and warranties would be reasonably apparent to an individual who has read that reference and such representations and warranties. The listing of any matter on a party’s

81

Disclosure Schedule shall not be deemed to constitute an admission by such party, or to otherwise imply, that any such matter is material, is required to be disclosed by such party under this Agreement or falls within relevant minimum thresholds or materiality standards set forth in this Agreement. No disclosure in a party’s Disclosure Schedule relating to any possible breach or violation by such party of any Contract or Applicable Law shall be construed as an admission or indication that any such breach or violation exists or has actually occurred.

Any purported assignment in violation of this Section 10.06(b) shall be void.

Section 10.07 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to principles of conflicts of laws that would require the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement and all disputes or controversies arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby (whether in law, contract, tort, equity or otherwise), in each case, solely to the extent relating to the Debt Commitment Letters or the Financing Sources shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of New York.

Exhibit 99.1

Dec. 16, 2013

To Our Valued Customers and Partners,

We are excited to inform you that LSI has signed a definitive agreement whereby Avago Technologies has agreed to acquire LSI in an all-cash transaction.

Avago is a leading semiconductor company with a 50-year history of innovation, $2.52 billion in annual revenue and a market capitalization of $11.4 billion. The company currently develops products for wireless communications, including handsets, wired enterprise infrastructure, and industrial and automotive electronics.

The combination of Avago and LSI will create a stronger, highly competitive company focused on serving multiple attractive end markets in storage, networking and handsets. The combined company will have nearly $5 billion in sales, more than 10,000 employees, over 15,000 patents, and operations across North America, Asia and Europe.

Together, we also will have greater ability to scale with our customers, innovate and drive growth. We will continue our respective customer commitments that reflect, in many cases, decades of technical collaboration and critical expertise, including substantial systems-level knowledge.

The agreement is subject to regulatory approvals in various jurisdictions, customary closing conditions and LSI stockholder approval. The closing is expected to occur in the first half of 2014.

Upon closing, LSI will become a wholly owned subsidiary of Avago. Until then, LSI and Avago will operate as two independent companies, as we always have. LSI’s commitment to you and interactions with you remain unchanged.

The news release announcing the acquisition is available at www.lsi.com. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me or your senior account representative.

As always, thank you for your commitment to LSI.

Forward Looking Statements

This communication may contain forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements may be typically identified by such words as “may,” “will,” “should,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “likely,” “believe,” “estimate,” “project,” “intend,” and other similar expressions among others. These forward-looking statements are subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from the expectations expressed in the forward-looking statements. Although Avago Technologies Limited (“Avago”) and LSI Corporation (“LSI”) believe that the expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are reasonable, any or all of such forward-looking statements may prove to be incorrect. Consequently, no forward-looking statements may be guaranteed and there can be no assurance that the actual results or

Exhibit 99.2

December 16, 2013

To the LSI Team,

This morning we announced a definitive agreement under which Avago Technologies will acquire LSI in an all-cash transaction for $11.15 per share of LSI stock or about $6.6 billion overall. While this announcement is no doubt a surprise to you, I believe it is an exciting and important next step in our evolution, and is in the best interests of our customers, stockholders and employees.

Headquartered in San Jose, Calif., and Singapore, Avago is a leading semiconductor company with a 50-year history of innovation, $2.52 billion in annual revenue and a market capitalization of $11.4 billion. The company develops products for wireless communications, including handsets, wired enterprise infrastructure, and industrial and automotive electronics.

Over the past few years, your hard work and commitment have enabled us to build LSI into a strong, successful company. We are focused on datacenters, mobile networks and client storage, and have developed a market-leading product portfolio and engagements with top-tier customers worldwide. As we built our business, I have continually emphasized the importance of growing and diversifying our revenues while improving our profitability. I believe that growth, diversification and profitability are now best served by joining forces with Avago.

The combination of Avago and LSI will create a stronger, highly competitive company focused on innovation and able to serve multiple attractive end markets in storage, networking and handsets. Together, we will have greater scale to invest and drive growth with nearly $5 billion in sales, more than 10,000 employees, over 15,000 patents, and operations across North America, Asia and Europe.

The agreement is subject to regulatory approvals in various jurisdictions, customary closing conditions and LSI stockholder approval. The two companies will operate as separate entities until the closing, which is expected to occur in the first half of 2014.

Avago CEO Hock Tan will lead the combined company, and he and I will work closely over the next few months to ensure a seamless integration. The first step in that process will be to form an integration task force of leaders from both companies. The team will report out periodically on various tracks related to the integration.

You’ll have a chance to hear from Hock in a separate note today and meet him in person or via a webcast that will be scheduled later this week.

At 11 a.m. PT today, I will host an employee webcast to discuss the announcement in more detail. The invitation to the webcast will follow this note. A note also will be sent later today with the time for a webcast for our employees in Asia.

In addition, you can find more information by reading today’s news release and a set of FAQs. You also can submit questions to abhiquestions@lsi.com. We’ll post updated FAQs on Insight from now until the closing. You can learn more about Avago by visiting www.avagotech.com.

I want to stress that today’s announcement should not affect how we do our jobs. It’s vitally important that we all remain focused on the work at hand to ensure that we continue to meet our commitments to our customers, stockholders and each other.

I know that while this is a positive step for LSI, change always brings challenges and some uncertainty. I’m confident that we will navigate both well and realize even greater success in the future.

Letter to LSI Employees

TO: LSI Employees

FROM: Hock Tan

SUBJECT: Avago and LSI Corporation

December 16, 2013

Dear LSI Employees,

As you have heard from Abhi, today Avago and LSI announced the exciting news that Avago will acquire LSI for $11.15 per share in cash. This combination will create a significantly larger company that will bring important benefits to the employees, customers and other stakeholders of both organizations. Together, we will be a highly diversified semiconductor leader across multiple attractive end markets.

On behalf of Avago and our worldwide employees, I am pleased to welcome you to our organization. Like LSI, Avago prioritizes a culture built on innovation, passion, and strong community. In addition to our shared cultural values, our businesses also provide a complementary product set to a worldwide customer base. As part of LSI, you have achieved many important accomplishments over a long period and I am quite excited by the possibilities of what we can accomplish in the next phase of our two companies’ joint evolution. The employees of both Avago and LSI will be integral to our future success and we look forward to investing in both our people and our technologies in order to drive profitable growth.

Even though we made this announcement today, we will continue to operate as separate companies until the acquisition closes, which we expect to happen sometime in the first half of calendar 2014. Avago’s Chief Operating Officer, Bryan Ingram, and I will be joining Abhi for an all-hands webcast meeting later this week where we will discuss this exciting news. We look forward to introducing ourselves to you and sharing our vision for the combined company.

Regards,

/s/ Hock Tan

FAQs

Dec. 16, 2013

GENERAL

Q1. What was announced today? What are the terms of the deal?

Avago is buying LSI for $11.15 per share in an all-cash transaction, or about $6.6 billion overall. The boards of both companies have unanimously approved the transaction. The agreement is subject to regulatory approvals in various jurisdictions, customary closing conditions and the approval of LSI’s stockholders. The two companies will operate as separate entities until the closing, which is expected to occur in the first half of 2014.

Q2. Why are LSI and Avago entering into this agreement?

The combination of Avago and LSI will create a stronger, highly competitive company focused on innovation and able to serve multiple attractive end markets in storage, networking and handsets. Together, we will have greater scale to invest and drive growth with nearly $5 billion in sales, more than 10,000 employees, over 15,000 patents, and operations across North America, Asia and Europe.

Q3. It seemed like LSI was well positioned to grow independently. Why are we selling the company now?

While we remain well positioned in our markets and with key customers, and are confident in future growth, the agreement will yield benefits through increased scale and greater depth across our markets. The combined company will also have greater relevance at key customers due to a broader and deeper portfolio of standard and custom products.

Q4. How did this transaction evolve? Were there any other companies interested in acquiring us?

LSI was not looking to be acquired. Avago approached us, and after careful deliberation our Board of Directors decided it was in the best interests of the company and our stockholders to enter into this transaction. More details about the transaction process may be found in our proxy statement, which will be available prior to the stockholder vote.

Q5. When will the transaction be completed?

The agreement is subject to regulatory approvals in various jurisdictions, customary closing conditions and LSI stockholder approval. The two companies will operate as separate entities until the closing, which is expected to occur in the first half of 2014.

Q6. What are the plans to integrate the two companies?

A joint integration task force, led by senior management and including representatives of both companies, will be formed to begin planning for the closing of the transaction and managing the details of integrating LSI and Avago. The integration team will communicate periodically about progress.

Q7. What can we expect in the interim?

We need to operate our business as usual. Until the transaction is approved by stockholders and regulators and closed, we will continue to operate independently from Avago and even compete with Avago at certain customers, as we always have. It’s vitally important for all of us to remain focused on the work at hand and deliver on our commitments to our customers and stockholders.

As we go forward, LSI will file a proxy statement and hold a stockholder meeting to approve the transaction, and the two companies will pursue regulatory approvals in the U.S. and other countries, and prepare for the integration.

Q8. What should I do if I receive a question from the media?

Our Media Relations team is responsible for communicating with reporters. If you receive an inquiry, please contact Dave Miller at dave.c.miller@lsi.com.

Q9. What can I communicate to customers?

All communications with customers are being coordinated through LSI Sales. Any exception to this should be discussed with your manager and approved by the Senior VP, Worldwide Sales, or his direct staff. We have prepared communication documents, including a news release, a presentation discussing overall rationales and benefits, and letters for customers and suppliers. These documents, which were included in a recent Sales Alert, provide information that you can share with customers and suppliers if you are authorized to communicate. It’s important that you closely follow the prepared documents so that we convey consistent messages and emphasize that we will operate the business as usual until closing.

ORANIZATION STRUCTURE

Q10. How will engineering, sales, marketing, operations and other functions be integrated into Avago? Will the organization structure change?

Until the closing, there are no expected changes to LSI’s organizational structure. Upon the closing of the transaction, LSI will become a wholly owned subsidiary of Avago, which will continue to be led by CEO Hock Tan. More information will be communicated as the integration team works through the process.

Q11. Will the LSI executive team be part of the combined company after the closing?

It is still too early to discuss management composition or organization. This will be worked by the integration team over the coming months.

Q12. What will happen to LSI facilities around the world?

The integration planning team will develop recommendations, if any, regarding changes to our geographic footprint. For example, there may be opportunities to co-locate LSI and Avago employees in existing LSI or Avago facilities.

COMPENSATION & BENEFITS

Q13. What happens to compensation and benefits for LSI employees?

All LSI compensation, severance and benefits will remain fully in place for one year after the transaction closes. Beyond the one year, Avago will determine how best to integrate the two companies

Q14. What will happen to the pension plan for former Agere employees?

Nothing will happen to the pension or your vested pension benefits because the pension plan is frozen.

Q15. How can I learn more about Avago’s benefits programs?

Avago has agreed to keep LSI’s compensation, severance and benefits programs in place for one year after closing. Avago will provide you with information about its benefit programs and the transition to its benefit programs at an appropriate time.

Q16. Will Avago recognize my years of service with LSI?

Avago will recognize years of service under its benefit programs once LSI employees transition to the Avago benefit plans.

Q17. What will happen to my existing LSI RSUs and stock options? When can I sell my RSUs or exercise my stock options?

Between now and closing, any shares you received from the vesting of RSUs or that you purchased under the ESPP can be sold and you can exercise any vested stock options unless you are subject to one of the blackouts, like our earnings blackout, contained in our Stock Trading Policy.

Until the transaction closes, RSUs and stock options continue to vest in accordance with their original vesting schedules. On the date the transaction closes, any unvested RSUs and unvested stock options will be converted into Avago RSUs or stock options with the same terms, including vesting, as the original grant, except that adjustments will be made to the number of shares covered by the award and, in the case of stock options, the exercise price, to maintain the value of the award at the time of conversion. Any

vested stock options you hold that have an exercise price less than $11.15 per share will be cashed out and canceled. After the closing, you will receive for each vested stock option, an amount equal to the difference between $11.15 and the exercise price of the stock option, multiplied by the number of shares of LSI stock for which the option was exercisable. If any vested stock option has an exercise price of $11.15 or higher, it will be canceled.

Q18. The price to be paid for LSI stock in the transaction is $11.15 per share. Why is LSI currently trading at a lower price?

LSI’s current stock price takes into account a number of market factors, including investors’ expectations of the amount of time it will take to close the transaction.

EMPLOYEE IMPACT

Q19. Will we follow the usual performance management process at the beginning of 2014? Will there be an opportunity for raises or promotion at the next focal? Will I still be eligible for a 2013 bonus to be paid in 2014?

Our annual focal process that begins with self-reviews and culminates in compensation adjustments (such as salary adjustments, bonuses and stock awards, if eligible and earned) will proceed normally in early 2014 in accordance with our customary practice.

Q20. Will there be any layoffs as a result of the agreement?

Prior to closing LSI, will continue to conduct business as usual and may make changes to our product line investments. Any such changes would be consistent with our normal planning process and not the result of the transaction. Upon closing, Avago will address areas of overlap or redundancy.

Q21. If an employee is terminated as a result of the agreement, will severance be provided and at what level?

LSI’s severance policies will continue to apply for a period of one year after closing. That means that affected employees will generally receive a severance amount based on the years of service at LSI, or in the case of directors and above, an amount based on their level.

Q22. Will employees still be required to take 5 mandatory vacation days in Q1 2014?

Yes. Until the closing, we need to continue to operate the business as usual. The mandatory vacation requirement is in line with our commitment to hold our non-GAAP operating expenses to $230 million per quarter.

Q23. Will restricted hiring continue pending the closing of the transaction?

Yes, although there will be some limited hiring of critical skill sets starting in January. This is part of a broader effort to tightly manage costs toward our commitment of holding non-GAAP operating expenses to $230 million per quarter and achieve business model performance of 20 to 22 percent non-GAAP operating margin.

Q24. Where can I get more information?

Abhi will hold an all-employee webcast on Monday, Dec. 16, to discuss the transaction and address common employee concerns. In addition, as more information is developed, it will be posted to Insight.

Q25. What if I have more questions?

You can send questions to abhiquestions@lsi.com. Those questions that can be addressed will be posted as part of an updated FAQ and posted on Insight.

Conference Call Script

Operator 

Welcome to Avago’s conference call to discuss its proposed acquisition of LSI. At this time, I would like to turn the call over to Tom Krause, Vice President of Corporate Development, for opening remarks and introductions. Please go ahead sir.

Tom

Thank you, operator and good morning everyone. Welcome to Avago’s conference call to discuss our proposed acquisition of LSI. Joining me today are Hock Tan, Avago’s President and CEO, Abhi Talwalkar, President and CEO of LSI, and Tony Maslowski, Chief Financial Officer of Avago Technologies. All have prepared comments.

We will limit today’s call to 45 minutes. After prepared comments, we will open the lines for your questions.

The press release and the supplemental presentation slides summarizing the transaction are available in the Investors section of Avago’s website at www.Avagotech.com. This conference call is being webcast live and a recording will be available via telephone playback. It will also be archived in the Investors section of our website at Avagotech.com.

As a reminder, today’s call will include forward-looking statements regarding the expected timing and completion of the transaction as well as financial impacts to Avago. These statements include risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results to differ materially from the statements made on this call. Please refer to our press release today and our recent filings with the SEC for information on the specific risk factors.

Now, over to Hock.

Hock

Thank you, Tom and good morning everyone. Let me first say that we are very excited by the strategic opportunities this acquisition will create for Avago, as well as the compelling financial benefits of this transformative transaction.

I would like to refer you to the first slide of our presentation, which summarizes the strategic rationale for this deal.

[Page 3] First, the LSI acquisition opens up an area where Avago has not been a major player until now – enterprise storage. In this space, LSI brings their leadership in storage connectivity and HDD products.

The transaction also significantly expands Avago’s offerings and capabilities in the wired infrastructure market, particularly by bringing deep system-level expertise, including architecture and software engineering resources. This complements our high-performance SerDes and optical components capabilities and allows us to develop more robust product roadmaps for our mutual datacenter, networking and storage customers.

Bringing these two companies together significantly increases our scale. Importantly, it also diversifies our revenue across several large addressable markets, bringing down Avago’s current concentration in wireless.

The transaction will be immediately accretive to free cash flow and earnings per share on a non-GAAP basis. Importantly, as Tony will describe in more detail, we intend to drive the operating profitability of LSI towards a level consistent with what Avago delivers today.

[Pause]

[Page 4] Turning to the next slide, for those of you who aren’t familiar with LSI, the company is a $2.4 billion dollar revenue fabless semiconductor business. The company is a leader in the enterprise storage and wired infrastructure markets. In enterprise storage, with a SAM of over $5 billion, LSI’s storage server connectivity, HDD, and Flash businesses make us a leader overnight.

2

On the networking side, LSI’s network processors and custom silicon solutions are sold to leading enterprise and service provider OEMs. By joining forces with LSI, we are strengthening our capabilities, and will now be able to deliver a broader set of product solutions to key customers in networking, as well as expand into the service provider market.

[Page 5] Talking about wired infrastructure, the next slide shows Avago has strengths in fiber optics and SerDes, while LSI brings leading system-level capabilities, including software and SoC’s. With these core ingredients, we are well-positioned to deliver comprehensive and optimized solutions in optics and silicon to the wired infrastructure market, turning what was a SAM of $2B into a SAM of $4B.

[Page 6] This next slide is really important. It demonstrates how this acquisition significantly increases our scale and balances our end market exposure by adding a market leader in enterprise storage to our growing wireless, wired and industrial businesses.

Wireless, which represents almost 50% of Avago’s business today, should make up about a quarter of our combined business. As discussed in our last earnings call, we expect to see continued volatility in wireless arising from the timing of product launches of leading OEM customers. This volatility is likely to substantially increase going forward, as we see our market position strengthening further. This combination will mitigate it.

Now I’ll pass it on to Tony for more details.

Tony

Thank you, Hock.

I want to take a moment to cover the basics of today’s announcement, which you can see on this Transaction Overview slide on page 7…

[Page 7] Avago will acquire LSI for $11.15 per share in cash, or approximately $6.6 billion dollars in total equity value. The transaction will be financed with available cash from the combined balance sheet, a new $4.6 billion term loan that has been fully committed by a group of banks and a $1.0 billion investment from Silver Lake. The transaction was approved by the boards of both companies. We anticipate closing this transaction during the first half of calendar year 2014, subject to receiving regulatory approvals in various jurisdictions and the

3

satisfaction of customary closing conditions, as well as the approval of LSI’s stockholders. We plan to provide more specific guidance once the transaction has closed and integration planning is completed.

This acquisition is a highly profitable combination. Before taking into account synergies, the combined company generates nearly $5 billion of revenue and well over $1 billion of EBITDA on an LTM basis. Additionally, I would point out that LSI’s gross margin is above our long term target and will help us shift the range to a new range of 52 to 55 percent. LSI’s operating margin is below ours, however, we remain committed to our long term operating margin target of 29 to 32 percent.

[Page 8] The transaction is expected to be significantly and immediately accretive to Avago’s non-GAAP free cash flow and EPS. Avago currently anticipates achieving annual cost savings at a run rate of $200 million by the end of the fiscal year ending November 1, 2015, the first full fiscal year after closing. In time, this increased cash flow will allow Avago to support future growth, increase value for our stockholders and eventually reduce leverage.

Avago has a proven track record of deleveraging. We retired nearly all of our LBO debt in less than 5 years and this was done through one of the worst financial recessions most of us have ever seen. Our focus on technology differentiation coupled with sound operating discipline helped us retire debt in the past and we plan on doing the same in the future. On an LTM basis, our total leverage will be 3.7x pro-forma EBITDA with synergies and 3.1x excluding the convertible note. The term loan that Avago is securing as part of its financing package will be fully pre-payable at par after six months. We believe this structure allows us to retire debt without incurring any costly prepayment penalties or tender premiums. The term loan has a variable rate and based on current conditions, the interest rate would be approximately 3.5% today. We will provide a further update when the financing is placed. It’s also important to note that the convertible note or preferred stock that makes up $1 billion of the financing is there to give us a much better overall capital structure that we think sets us up well to achieve the targets we have laid out.

We also remain committed to returning cash to stockholders. We plan to continue our dividend policy in the future. We have also negotiated flexibility in our debt agreements to do share buybacks consistent with the strategy of limiting dilution from annual employee equity awards.

4

We are pleased to have LSI’s CEO, Abhi Talwalkar, here with us this morning. Now, I’ll pass the call over to Abhi for a few remarks.

Abhi Talwalkar

Thank you Tony.

Many of you on the call have been investors in, covering, or following LSI since I joined the company in 2005. All of us at LSI are proud of what we have accomplished and our position today as a leading storage and networking semiconductor company, centered within the key secular trends of data & traffic growth. We are recognized leaders in the segments we serve and are contributing to the success of customers who are the true leaders in the IT and datacenter markets. We have made significant improvements in our financial performance and are excited to begin the next chapter of our business evolution and the opportunities this brings.

We believe the transaction benefits all of LSI’s key stakeholders. For our customers, there will be greater scale to support critical investments and a broader product portfolio of differentiated products. Our employees will benefit from opportunities in joining a larger, diversified organization. And for our stockholders, the transaction provides very compelling value and represents an approximate 40% premium above Friday’s closing price.

With that, I’ll turn the call back to Hock.

Hock

Thank you, Abhi.

We look forward to working together with the LSI team to create tremendous value for our stockholders, customers and employees.

That concludes our prepared remarks. Operator, please open up the call for questions.

Investor Q&A

Hock Tan - Avago Technologies Limited - President and CEO

This will now conclude our prepared remarks. Operator, please open up the call for any questions.

Operator

(Operator Instructions)

James Schneider with Goldman Sachs.

James Schneider - Goldman Sachs - Analyst

Good morning. Thanks for taking my question. I was wondering if you could discuss any areas in terms of the broad focus of LSI where you might consider paring back the focus, whether that’s on the storage or networking side, or any lower marketing areas you might look to reduce investment in?

Hock Tan - Avago Technologies Limited - President and CEO

James, good to hear from you. I have to admit, this is still — first and foremost, let me add, we’re very impressed with the market positioning of the various LSI products. And we wouldn’t have done this transaction otherwise. We are very. At this stage in the game, though, I think it’s a bit premature and definitely very early to comment on any of that. We have to understand precisely what we have and the dynamics of each of those markets. But within those markets, as I indicated in my remarks very clearly, we see very strong franchises. And we certainly intend to maintain those franchises.

James Schneider - Goldman Sachs - Analyst

Great. And then maybe as a follow-up, can I maybe ask, at least in your view, if you had to think about Avago’s growth rate before the transaction and now what the natural top-line growth rate would be after the transaction, both on a top line and EPS basis, how do you think this transaction changes that?

Tony Maslowski - Avago Technologies Limited - CFO

Jim, it’s Tony here. Again, as you’ve heard us say before, our long-term growth model of Avago was high single digits, low double digits. I think with the transaction we’re getting to probably a combined range of 6% to 8% going forward for the long-term model.

Hock Tan - Avago Technologies Limited - President and CEO

And if I could add, that’s top line. We see, as Tony said correctly, we see on a combined basis realistically of 6% to 8%, thereabout. Basically from high to 10% before to probably mid to high single digits where we see it. That’s on the top line. On the bottom line, from an earnings per share point of view, because of our financial structure of this deal, and the accretion we expect to come over the long term, we see earnings per share growing much faster than what you have here. We do see earnings per share growing in the double digits on an annual basis.

James Schneider - Goldman Sachs - Analyst

Thank you very much.

Operator

Ross Seymore with Deutsche Bank.

Ross Seymore - Deutsche Bank - Analyst

Hi, guys. Thanks for letting me ask a question. Tony, any way to benchmark what sort of accretion? When you talk about things being significantly and immediately accretive, any magnitude you could put around that for us?

Tony Maslowski - Avago Technologies Limited - CFO

Again, I think if you just do the simple math of the combination and where they are today on an EPS basis, and obviously we’re not issuing any shares through this, so I think that’s the way you get to the math on it. If you’re trying to leak into the ideas of what were immediate synergies, we have a goal in mind and we’ll be describing that more as we go forward.

2

Ross Seymore - Deutsche Bank - Analyst

And then as far as the operating margin improvement that you’re going to put into place, Hock, is it going to be a combination of both revenue synergies where you might trim some areas? Somewhat like Jim’s question. Is it going to be just on the revenue side or is it primarily going to be a cost exercise?

Hock Tan - Avago Technologies Limited - President and CEO

You’re right, Ross, it will definitely be both. We’ll look at it on a total basis. And we’ll look at it beyond just one. Think about it this way. We have two companies, two sets of businesses, two companies that we will be integrating on one single common platform. That’s the purpose of this particular transaction. We will put both sets of businesses on a common platform. And we will do it in a very disciplined and expeditious manner, but also in a very careful and thoughtful manner in terms of various businesses. And we are not talking of just one, we’re talking of both.

And the synergies obviously a lot to come from an SG&A platform. There’s no hiding that. There’s an element of that. Simply because we spends 6.5% on SG&A and LSI spends 11.5%. And the combined total might even be more interesting. But also, beyond that, from some of my prepared remarks, we’re talking about strategic opportunities that now open up, especially in wired infrastructure and networking, that both our capabilities would leverage much better on. And we see making wired infrastructure and enterprise storage a particular area of focus in this combination.

Ross Seymore - Deutsche Bank - Analyst

Great. Hock, one last one, if I could sneak it in. You mentioned about the volatility of the wireless side. It’s still going to be 25% of your business.

Hock Tan - Avago Technologies Limited - President and CEO

At least.

Ross Seymore - Deutsche Bank - Analyst

Right. What were you getting at with mentioning that? It seems like you’re clear that there’s going to be even bigger volatility going forward. Can you give us a little more color, to the extent you can, on what you’re really pointing to there?

3

Hock Tan - Avago Technologies Limited - President and CEO

No, I can’t. And I won’t. But just believe me, if it is going — basically we expect wireless to continue to be a very good growth business. And as I pointed out in my last earnings call, which many of you guys picked up on, that volatility, as we grow, and grow bigger, in the wireless business, because of the characteristic of this business of few leading OEMs with major product ramps, the volatility during any year, the seasonal volatility, so to speak, to be precise, enhances, increases for us. And we see that going up even more for us, rather than less. And that’s really the extent to which I’d like to comment.

Ross Seymore - Deutsche Bank - Analyst

Great. Thank you.

Operator

Blayne Curtis with Barclays.

Blayne Curtis - Barclays Capital - Analyst

Hi, guys. Congrats. And, Abhi and the LSI team, congrats to you guys. I wanted to go back to synergies. There’s actually not a lot of overlap in the Company. So I was just wondering where those synergies are coming from. And then the timing of which. How long will it take you to realize those?

Hock Tan - Avago Technologies Limited - President and CEO

I think in some ways the beautiful thing is the lack of overlap. But, at the same time, there is very clear complementary benefits from putting parts of our business together with Abhi’s part of his business. And that’s relates a lot into the space we both loosely call either wired infrastructure or networking, one and the same. Those two parts do overlap and we do serve some common customers, as you pointed out. But more than that, for those common customers we now will have, as the combination, present very strong capabilities.

As I mentioned, repeating what I said earlier, in this area, which is going to be the largest area in the both combined entities, Avago has fiber optics, in fact we are the leader in technology in fiber optics and extremely strong SerDes. Equally, LSI has extremely strong architectures and SoC capability, very well-known through that and included in it is the strength in also multi-core processors. Those various capabilities under one roof focus on this set of data center, enterprise, end networking set of customers and service providers.

4

We’ll basically be able to, as I mentioned, optimize solutions of fiber together with silicon chips for those various customers. Something that we do not see out there today. We see very disparate players. We don’t see a player that can offer both the transmission of data as well as the processing of data in those switches and routers. We can provide both. And through that ability to provide solutions — and I mean not just hardware, but architecture, as well as software — we believe we will add value to those customers, and, through that, create value for our business model.

Blayne Curtis - Barclays Capital - Analyst

Thanks for that. Then just a question, Tony, on maybe capital structure and use of cash. You’ve been committed to increasing the dividend. Obviously the combined Company will have significant cash flow. Can you talk about is there any change to the dividend plans. And then going forward how do you think about levels of debt on the Company? Would you be paying it down or is there some level that you would be happy keeping long term?

Tony Maslowski - Avago Technologies Limited - CFO

On the dividend specifically, you know our dividend policy. And I think I stressed in my prepared remarks that we’ll continue the dividend policy. The increases and so forth we have always looked at those on a quarterly basis with our Board and so forth. But I believe this deal provides us the flexibility to continue some of the things we’ve done in the past. As far as capital structure, I think long term we will pay down the debt to a level that we’re comfortable with, and then consider those opportunities, depending on what the debt markets look like, as well as how our free cash flow and some of the synergies are going. That’s a two-year-out question and we’re keeping all possibilities open.

Blayne Curtis - Barclays Capital - Analyst

Okay. Thanks for that.

Operator

Doug Freedman with RBC.

5

Doug Freedman - RBC Capital Markets - Analyst

Great. Thanks for taking my question, guys. And congratulations on putting a deal this size together. If I could, Hock, could you talk a little bit about — you mentioned putting the teams together under one roof. Do you look at putting these R&D teams together? Or are you going to operate LSI’s business units pretty much as they’re operating? How do you envision the merged company execution-wise?

Hock Tan - Avago Technologies Limited - President and CEO

That’s a very interesting question and I’m sure it’s a question very much suited when we close the deal. I’ll be honest. I think it’s premature. We have to understand what we have here, just as the LSI team has to understand what Avago is. It’s a mutual thing. As I say, it’s about putting two sets of business on a common platform. And I’m sure there will be inter-consolidation and integration where it makes a lot of sense. As example, in our custom silicon business.

But there are others which are very much standalone franchises on both sides, which makes sense to keep doing what they’re doing very well. So it will be a mix. But we’ll be very deliberate and thoughtful as we put these two companies together, once we’re able to do so upon closing. And it’s probably better addressed, and I’ll be in a bit better position to give you guys a sense of that down the road, after closing. At this point, just keep in mind the possibilities are huge and we are very open about that.

Doug Freedman - RBC Capital Markets - Analyst

Tony, could you share with us what the long pole in the tent is to getting this deal closed? Is there regulatory concerns or is it just — if you could share with us what is in the critical path?

Tony Maslowski - Avago Technologies Limited - CFO

Again, I think the single longest pole is some of the country antitrust type things you have to go through, specifically in Asia. That’s the longest pole in the tent. We don’t expect anything, but, again, we have to be watchful and respond quickly. So, again, that’s why we set the six months into the calendar year. We’re pretty of confident it will get done in that time frame.

Doug Freedman - RBC Capital Markets - Analyst

Great. Thank you.

Operator

Vivek Arya with Bank of America-Merrill Lynch.

Vivek Arya - BofA Merrill Lynch - Analyst

Thanks for taking my question. Maybe one more on operating synergies because that’s an important component of this deal. Hock, your operating margin’s at about 30%. And I think LSI in the past has set operating targets of 20% to 22%. So, when you combine the two companies, isn’t it more realistic to assume the combined margins best case would be somewhere in the mid-20%s rather than in the high 20%s? And where I’m going with that is, some parts of LSI business, like the hard disk drive business, there is some customer concentration. And in the data center business on the flash side it’s still in somewhat early stages, so probably needs more investment. So, I’m just trying to get a realistic feel for where operating margins can be a year out of the deal.

Hock Tan - Avago Technologies Limited - President and CEO

I think, Tony, in these prepared remarks, what you said factually is very precise. But you will also hear what Tony said in his prepared remarks, which I stand solidly behind. Long term, we are very convinced we will combine these two companies on a common platform that will deliver a 30% operating profit margin to our shareholders. Now, the specific deals of that I think it is probably premature at this early stage. And, as I said, this is definitely a combination with a lot of opportunities, both financial, but also, don’t forget, strategic very clearly for Avago, as well as for LSI businesses. And there are plenty of areas where we can basically add a lot of value to each other.

As an early question perceived. So, because of that, even though we do expect realistically to gauge growth for this combined company to be mitigated on a combined basis from around 10% a year, which is one Avago historically has been achieving, to probably mid to high single digit, we believe we will make up — more than make up — for it with profitability and earnings per share growth. And part of it is also from the way we are structuring the financing of this deal. That we can get our earnings per share up at least double digits per year on a long-term basis, on a sustained long-term basis. And it starts from the fact that, as Tony said, we will drive operating profitability to the Avago model.

Vivek Arya - BofA Merrill Lynch - Analyst

Got it. And then maybe one follow-up for Tony. Tony, is there something that stands out that increases the risk of not getting any regulatory approval? Is there anything in the business product combination, customer concentration, et cetera, that in any way increases that risk at all? And just another housekeeping — how to model interest expenses and from what time. Thank you.

Tony Maslowski - Avago Technologies Limited - CFO

Again, on the regulatory side, we don’t expect anything. It’s just we’re watchful of what’s been happening in certain countries. So you can see some randomness in some countries in the way the filings happen and the time delay. So, we don’t expect anything different from that. There’s nothing unique, I think, about our profile and so forth. It’s just the country-by-country ticking that we have to do. Again, that’s why we set the six months.

And then on the interest basis, we gave you an interest rate as of today. And, again, I think what we’ll do is we’ll, in the future, give you some targets about how our maintenance on cash is going. And then we’ll just simply be paying down debt, anything over that maintenance level on our cash balance. That’s the way you’d have to model it going forward, is some steady decline in the overall term loan as we go forward.

Vivek Arya - BofA Merrill Lynch - Analyst

Is it a minimum level of cash you need to hold, Tony, for the combined company? That’s my last question. Thank you.

Tony Maslowski - Avago Technologies Limited - CFO

Yes, that’s what I’m saying. We’re still working through all that. But I think in our models and all the rest we’re pretty comfortable with the number that we’ll disclose to you in the future, and then that will help you model interest rates going forward versus the cash flow of the Company.

Vivek Arya - BofA Merrill Lynch - Analyst

Okay. Thank you. Good luck.

Romit Shah - Nomura Asset Management - Analyst

Yes, thanks a lot. The deal looks very accretive. I wanted to press you guys a little bit, though, on the long-term combined growth rate of the two companies. Hock, if I look at LSI’s historical growth rate really over any period, one, three, five years, it’s been negative. So, I’m just curious how you got comfortable with the revenue performance, because the historical data would imply that the long-term growth rate of the Company is going to be more like 3%. Thank you.

Hock Tan - Avago Technologies Limited - President and CEO

I guess the assumptions, Romit, you start with, are probably incorrect.

Abhi Talwalkar - LSI Corporation - President and CEO

Romit, this is Abhi. I’m not sure how familiar you are with the Company. But I think your growth rate probably factors into the divestitures that we’ve made in the last three, four years. In particular, our systems business. And we transformed the Company into a pure play semiconductor company. If you look at the growth rate of the Company from 2009 through 2012 ending, the Company averaged 17% growth rate, or CAGR. Which was really in the top 10 percentile of the industry. So, we’re very confident. And obviously very confident in terms of product cycles that we’ve talked to many of our investors over the past several quarters as we go into 2014 and 2015. Frankly, across all our product lines.

Hock Tan - Avago Technologies Limited - President and CEO

Okay. Starting with that assumption, obviously for you guys in terms of our forward-looking statements here, we have mitigated that and applied over that the Basel long-term model and hence, we come to that mid to high single digit. Frankly, one thing here is there’s a core here in LSI, and just as there’s a core here in Avago, and we are looking at the core businesses going forward, combining the core business to drive that particular growth rate, Romit. And that’s why we feel very comfortable with mid to high single-digit top-line growth rate over the next several years.

Romit Shah - Nomura Asset Management - Analyst

Okay. That’s helpful. Are there any pieces of the LSI platform, Hock, that you find in particular very attractive? Thank you.

Hock Tan - Avago Technologies Limited - President and CEO

We believe LSI is a very strong player in those couple areas we mentioned earlier. One is hard disk drive and the other area where a big part of their business is very driven and focused really on data center and enterprise. Less so on kline. And that we find of particular value and particular sustainability going forward. And the second area that is also practically a franchise is LSI’s leadership in the area of storage and server connectivity, areas of particular products of SaaS, [sasler], controllers and rate adaptive counts and systems, all for storage, enterprise storage in particular and server connectivity, where it’s practically a franchise and a very strong leadership. We find those two businesses extremely profitable, very well known, in fact, and extremely stable and sustainable.

Romit Shah - Nomura Asset Management - Analyst

Okay. Thank you. Good luck.

Thanks so much for taking my question. I’m wondering what percentage of revenues is LSI exposed to networking? And, specifically, will Avago be seeing its Cisco exposure as a percentage of sales going up, down, stay the same? Thank you.

Abhi Talwalkar - LSI Corporation - President and CEO

From an LSI overall revenue composition standpoint, about 78% of the business is storage and about 17% or so is networking. Of that 17% networking, it’s split across, I’d say, evenly across wired as well as telecom infrastructure. Wired being data center or enterprise switching.

10

Hock Tan - Avago Technologies Limited - President and CEO

And if I could, in the overlap, to extent that. And there is overlap in products and customers. Less so, obviously, in capabilities which extend across all service providers and enterprise networking. But the overlap on a particular customer side is, you’re right, among others, is the enterprise custom ASIC business, in particular.

Obviously Avago doesn’t do standard products. LSI does do standard products. But when it comes to custom ASIC, there is some overlap, not necessarily in all customers. Obviously, Cisco is one.

And to answer your question directly, will, on a combined basis the Cisco percent of our overall business, Avago’s business, be diluted — yes, initially. Initially it will be. We are confident as we would hopefully come up with, and we plan to come up with, very strong optimized and comprehensive solutions, as I mentioned, between fiber and silicon as our two teams combine to work together and do that. That we will over the longer term grow businesses in customers, among others, enterprise networking customers like Cisco. But in the short term, mathematically, it will be dilution.

Alex Gauna - JMP Securities - Analyst

Quick question in terms of how you founder and manufacture the products. Are you on the same process nodes? How long would it take for you guys to start merging product road maps? Thank you.

Hock Tan - Avago Technologies Limited - President and CEO

I think we are very — depending on the particular businesses, but I assume you’re referring to enterprise networking — very similar. And the foundry, we both use TSMC.

Alex Gauna - JMP Securities - Analyst

Okay. And then one last quick one. I know you’ve spent a number of years paring down some of your legacy consumer exposure, consumer PC exposure. You’re going to be getting some of that back with the storage assets of LSI. Can you talk about how that fits into your thinking in your business model?

11

Hock Tan - Avago Technologies Limited - President and CEO

Yes, happy to do that. In fact, we see, as I mentioned, as I responded to an earlier question, we see two particular areas, among others, of very strong interest and attractiveness to us. One is, as I mentioned, the hard disk drive business and combined, in a way, with flash. And here we see that concentration of business in this particular sector for LSI is in data centers and enterprises, less so on [klines], particular notebooks. Their strength is very much on the server side, the enterprises and some desktops, as well. All these are big businesses, end markets that are, as you may know, particularly stable, as opposed to the declining notebook, mobile PC market. And that’s the big difference here in this whole sector. Abhi might want to add.

Abhi Talwalkar - LSI Corporation - President and CEO

Just to add also, again, for those of you that may not know the Company well, from a revenue composition standpoint approximately 50% of our revenues are exposed to data centers, large to hyper scale, as well. And obviously we’ve got 17% of the business in the networking space. The other thing I think that’s important to mention is our hard disk drive business is heavily exposed across enterprise drives and 3.5-inch near-line drives, which are also going into cloud and data center environments. And, yes, there’s a desktop exposure but we have very little to no exposure in the notebook space. And that’s partly been also by design. And, as we see our share gains over the coming one to two years, those share gains will actually be in enterprise, as well as in desktops. And desktops we believe are a much more stable part of the client storage marketplace.

Craig Hettenbach - Morgan Stanley - Analyst

Thank you. Hock, just a question going back to the organic growth rate. Because I know at the time when you did CyOptics a while back there was some questions on growth. And, obviously, you guys have talked about how strategic it is to you. And then now doing this deal. So if you can go back to the Avago side in terms of that high single-digit to low double-digit growth, if you can just talk about the positioning there over the next year or two.

12

Hock Tan - Avago Technologies Limited - President and CEO

Okay. The CyOptics deal, to begin with, since you touch on that, has been going very well. In fact, it’s going extremely well, much better than we thought it would, simply from the fact it’s very strategic. We’re developing products that in single mode, longer reach fiber, I should say, using automating lasers from CyOptics that are going to be used in data centers, something we would be challenged to do using our own technology previously. So that’s a strategic side.

But from a business point of view, they’re doing very well because, to be honest, I think we’re in a telecom bubble. Fiber to the home in China seems to be very strong. That helped the fab utilization CyOptics. Also, from long reach networks, which is one of CyOptics’ sweet spot is, especially the 100G coherent lasers. We’re basically out of capacity at this stage. And we’re obviously consolidating it into Avago now to improve productivity from that area.

So that just addresses optics. But from an overall business point of view, you heard about, what we talked about in our recent earnings call, especially in respect in the near term our fiscal quarter that will end in January, nothing much has changed. We’re in a bit of a seasonal trough for industrial, somewhat. And obviously some year-end budget spending on enterprise.

Having said that, the wireless business, which used to be seasonally down in our fiscal Q1, the quarter ending January, is sustaining. I guess is the uniqueness of concentration in the smartphone business that we’re addressing. That is our biggest market now. And, as I pointed out, very much, is sustaining very well this quarter. And we see our market positioning, as I pointed out earlier, strengthening in next-generation OEM designs, which will put us in a nice position if you look over one year. What it says, though, if you look at it on a quarterly basis, will just put us on very high volatility going forward.

Craig Hettenbach - Morgan Stanley - Analyst
