Check the appropriate box below if the Form 8-K filing is intended to simultaneously satisfy the filing obligation of the registrant under any of the following provisions:

On June 19, 2013, BMC Software, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. (the “Trustee”), as trustee, entered into the second supplemental indenture (the “Second Supplemental Indenture”), relating to the indenture, dated as of June 4, 2008 (the “Base Indenture”), supplemented by the first supplemental indenture, dated as of June 4, 2008 (the “First Supplemental Indenture” and together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”), governing the Company’s 7.25% Notes due 2018.

The Second Supplemental Indenture was entered into in connection with the Company’s previously announced solicitation of consents (the “Consent Solicitation”) from the holders of the notes, which the Company commenced on June 7, 2013.

The Second Supplemental Indenture amends the Indenture in connection with the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of May 6, 2013, by and among the Company, Boxer Parent Company Inc., a Delaware corporation, and Boxer Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), as amended from time to time (the “Merger Agreement”), pursuant to which Merger Sub will be merged with and into the Company with the Company continuing as the surviving corporation (such transaction, the “Acquisition”).

The Second Supplemental Indenture amends the definition of “Change of Control” in the Indenture so that the Acquisition does not constitute a “Change of Control” or result in a “Change of Control Triggering Event” under the Indenture and makes certain other related changes to the Indenture (collectively, the “Amendments”). The Company executed the Second Supplemental Indenture as of June 19, 2013, but the Amendments will not become operative unless and until certain conditions, including the closing of the Acquisition, have been satisfied or waived.

The full text of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

The disclosure under Item 1.01 of this report is also responsive to Item 3.03 of this report and is incorporated herein by reference.

On June 20, 2013, the Company issued a press release announcing that, in connection with the Consent Solicitation, the Company received the requisite consents to approve the Second Supplemental Indenture and that the Second Supplemental Indenture was executed by the Company and the Trustee. The Consent Solicitation expired at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on Wednesday, June 19, 2013. A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.

In connection with the proposed transaction, the Company filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) a preliminary proxy statement and other documents relating to the proposed merger on May 24, 2013. When completed, a definitive proxy statement and a form of proxy will be filed with the SEC and mailed to the Company’s stockholders. BEFORE MAKING ANY VOTING DECISION, THE COMPANY’S STOCKHOLDERS ARE URGED TO READ THE DEFINITIVE PROXY STATEMENT IN ITS ENTIRETY WHEN IT BECOMES AVAILABLE AND ANY OTHER DOCUMENTS TO BE FILED WITH THE SEC IN CONNECTION WITH THE PROPOSED MERGER OR INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE IN THE PROXY STATEMENT BECAUSE THEY WILL CONTAIN IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT THE PROPOSED TRANSACTION AND THE PARTIES TO THE PROPOSED TRANSACTION. Investors and security holders may obtain a free copy of documents filed by BMC Software, Inc. with the SEC at the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov.

The Company and certain of its directors, executive officers, and certain other members of management and employees of the Company may be deemed to be participants in the solicitation of proxies from stockholders of the Company in favor of the proposed merger. Information about the directors and executive officers of the Company is set forth in the proxy statement for the Company’s 2012 annual meeting of stockholders, as filed with the SEC on Schedule 14A on June 5, 2012 (as amended by the proxy statement supplement filed on July 3, 2012).
