Articles of Incorporation (the &#147;Articles of Incorporation&#148;) limit the personal liability of its directors for monetary damages to the fullest extent permitted by the California General Corporation Law (the &#147;California Law&#148;).
Under the California Law, a director&#146;s liability to a company or its shareholders may not be limited with respect to the following items: (i)&nbsp;acts or omissions that involve intentional misconduct or a knowing and culpable violation of law,
(ii)&nbsp;acts or omissions that a director believes to be contrary to the best interests of the company or its shareholders or that involve the absence of good faith on the part of the director, (iii)&nbsp;any transaction from which a director
derived an improper personal benefit, (iv)&nbsp;acts or omissions that show a reckless disregard for the director&#146;s duty to the company or its shareholders in circumstances in which the director was aware, or should have been aware, in the
ordinary course of performing a director&#146;s duties, of a risk of a serious injury to the company or its shareholders, (v)&nbsp;acts or omissions that constitute an unexcused pattern of inattention that amounts to an abdication of the
director&#146;s duty to the company or its shareholders, (vi)&nbsp;contracts or transactions between the company and a director within the scope of Section&nbsp;310 of the California Law, (vii)&nbsp;improper distributions, loans and guarantees under
Section&nbsp;316 of the California Law, (viii)&nbsp;acts or omissions occurring prior to the date such provision eliminating or limiting the personal liability of a director became effective or (ix)&nbsp;acts or omissions as an officer,
notwithstanding that the officer is also a director or that his or her actions, if negligent or improper, have been ratified by the directors. The limitation of liability does not affect the availability of injunctions and other equitable remedies
available to Broadcom&#146;s shareholders for any violation by a director of the director&#146;s fiduciary duty to Broadcom or its shareholders. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:12pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Articles of Incorporation also include an authorization for Broadcom to indemnify its &#147;agents&#148; (as defined in Section&nbsp;317
of the California Law) through bylaw provisions, by agreement or otherwise, to the fullest extent permitted by law. Pursuant to this provision, Broadcom&#146;s Amended and Restated Bylaws, as amended through August&nbsp;16, 2012 (&#147;Bylaws&#148;)
provide for indemnification of the company&#146;s directors and officers. In addition, Broadcom may, at its discretion, provide indemnification to persons whom it is not obligated to indemnify, including its employees and other agents. The Bylaws
also allow Broadcom to enter into indemnity agreements with individual directors, officers, employees and other agents. Such indemnity agreements have been entered into with all directors and executive officers and certain non-executive officers and
provide the maximum indemnification permitted by law. These agreements, together with Broadcom&#146;s Bylaws and Articles of Incorporation, may require Broadcom, among other things, to indemnify these directors or officers (other than for liability
resulting from willful misconduct of a culpable nature), to advance expenses to them as they are incurred, provided that they undertake to repay the amount advanced if it is ultimately determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that they are
not entitled to indemnification, and to obtain directors&#146; and officers&#146; insurance if available on reasonable terms. Section&nbsp;317 of the California Law and Broadcom&#146;s Bylaws makes provision for the indemnification of officers,
directors and other corporate agents in terms sufficiently broad to indemnify such persons, under certain circumstances, for liabilities (including reimbursement of expenses incurred) arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
&#147;Securities Act&#148;). </P> <P STYLE="font-size:18pt;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt">&nbsp;</P>

Item 6.
Indemnification of Directors and Officers
Broadcom's Second Amended and Restated
Articles of Incorporation (the "Articles of Incorporation") limit the personal liability of its directors for monetary damages to the fullest extent permitted by the California General Corporation Law (the "California Law").
Under the California Law, a director's liability to a company or its shareholders may not be limited with respect to the following items: (i) acts or omissions that involve intentional misconduct or a knowing and culpable violation of law,
(ii) acts or omissions that a director believes to be contrary to the best interests of the company or its shareholders or that involve the absence of good faith on the part of the director, (iii) any transaction from which a director
derived an improper personal benefit, (iv) acts or omissions that show a reckless disregard for the director's duty to the company or its shareholders in circumstances in which the director was aware, or should have been aware, in the
ordinary course of performing a director's duties, of a risk of a serious injury to the company or its shareholders, (v) acts or omissions that constitute an unexcused pattern of inattention that amounts to an abdication of the
director's duty to the company or its shareholders, (vi) contracts or transactions between the company and a director within the scope of Section 310 of the California Law, (vii) improper distributions, loans and guarantees under
Section 316 of the California Law, (viii) acts or omissions occurring prior to the date such provision eliminating or limiting the personal liability of a director became effective or (ix) acts or omissions as an officer,
notwithstanding that the officer is also a director or that his or her actions, if negligent or improper, have been ratified by the directors. The limitation of liability does not affect the availability of injunctions and other equitable remedies
available to Broadcom's shareholders for any violation by a director of the director's fiduciary duty to Broadcom or its shareholders.
The Articles of Incorporation also include an authorization for Broadcom to indemnify its "agents" (as defined in Section 317
of the California Law) through bylaw provisions, by agreement or otherwise, to the fullest extent permitted by law. Pursuant to this provision, Broadcom's Amended and Restated Bylaws, as amended through August 16, 2012 ("Bylaws")
provide for indemnification of the company's directors and officers. In addition, Broadcom may, at its discretion, provide indemnification to persons whom it is not obligated to indemnify, including its employees and other agents. The Bylaws
also allow Broadcom to enter into indemnity agreements with individual directors, officers, employees and other agents. Such indemnity agreements have been entered into with all directors and executive officers and certain non-executive officers and
provide the maximum indemnification permitted by law. These agreements, together with Broadcom's Bylaws and Articles of Incorporation, may require Broadcom, among other things, to indemnify these directors or officers (other than for liability
resulting from willful misconduct of a culpable nature), to advance expenses to them as they are incurred, provided that they undertake to repay the amount advanced if it is ultimately determined by a court of competent jurisdiction that they are
not entitled to indemnification, and to obtain directors' and officers' insurance if available on reasonable terms. Section 317 of the California Law and Broadcom's Bylaws makes provision for the indemnification of officers,
directors and other corporate agents in terms sufficiently broad to indemnify such persons, under certain circumstances, for liabilities (including reimbursement of expenses incurred) arising under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Securities Act").

Item 9.
Undertakings
(a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
(1) to file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:
(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of this Registration Statement (or the most recent
post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in this Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities
offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the
Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective
registration statement; and
II-3
Table of Contents
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not
previously disclosed in this Registration Statement or any material change to such information in this Registration Statement;
Provided, however,
That:
(A) Paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the registration statement is on Form S-8, and the information required to be included
in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the SEC by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference into the
registration statement; and
(B) Paragraphs (a)(1)(i), (a)(1)(ii) and (a)(1)(iii) do not apply if the registration statement is on Form
S-3 or
Form F-3 and
the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the SEC by the registrant pursuant to
Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement, or is contained in a form of prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of the registration statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a
new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial
bona fide
offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the
termination of the offering.
(b) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the
Securities Act, each filing of the registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to
Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference into this Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that
time shall be deemed to be the initial
bona fide
offering thereof.
(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under
the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that, in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against
public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer
or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the
opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be
governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
