On February 26, 2013, Avago Technologies Ltd. (“Avago” or the “Company”) issued a press release announcing its unaudited financial results for the first quarter ended February 3, 2013.

The foregoing description is qualified in its entirety by reference to the press release dated February 26, 2013, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.

(b) and (c) On February 26, 2013, the Company announced that Douglas R. Bettinger, the Company’s Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, has resigned his position with the Company effective March 8, 2013.

Mr. Bettinger has also resigned as a proxy holder in respect of the Company’s 2013 Annual General Meeting of Shareholders, scheduled to take place on April 10, 2013.

In connection with Mr. Bettinger’s departure, the Company announced that Anthony Maslowski, the Company’s Vice President and Corporate Controller, will serve as the Company’s interim Chief Financial Officer and interim principal financial officer, with effect from March 8, 2013, during a search for Mr. Bettinger’s replacement. Mr. Maslowski, age 52, joined the Company in 2006 as Vice President of Internal Audit. Prior to joining the Company, Mr. Maslowski served as the Chief Financial Officer for Allegro Manufacturing Pte Ltd and prior to that, he held senior finance management positions at Lam Research Corporation and Hitachi Data Systems Corporation. Mr. Maslowski holds a Bachelor of Business Administration degree from University of Michigan. As at February 26, 2013, Mr. Maslowski beneficially owned 7,500 ordinary shares of the Company (representing less than 1% of the Company’s outstanding shares), including 3,000 shares that Mr. Maslowski has the right to acquire within 60 days thereafter upon the exercise of share options.

A copy of the press release dated February 26, 2013, announcing the foregoing management changes is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.2 and is incorporated by reference herein.

For Avago, particular uncertainties that could materially affect future results include global economic conditions and concerns; cyclicality in the semiconductor industry or in our target markets; quarterly and annual fluctuations in operating results; loss of our significant customers; increased dependence on the volatile, wireless handset market; our competitive performance and ability to continue achieving design wins with our customers; our dependence on contract manufacturing and outsourced supply chain and our ability to improve our cost structure through our manufacturing outsourcing program; prolonged disruptions of our or our contract manufacturers’ manufacturing facilities or other significant operations; our dependence on outsourced service providers for certain key business services and their ability to execute to our requirements; our ability to maintain gross margin; our ability to maintain tax concessions in certain jurisdictions; our ability to protect our intellectual property and any associated increases in litigation expenses; dependence on and risks associated with distributors of our products; any expenses associated with resolving customer product and warranty and indemnification claims; our ability to achieve the growth prospects and synergies expected from acquisitions we may make; delays, challenges and expenses associated with integrating acquired companies with our existing businesses; and other events and trends on a national, regional and global scale, including those of a political, economic, business, competitive and regulatory nature. Our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on December 17, 2012 and other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or “SEC” (which you may obtain for free at the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov) discuss some of the important risk factors that may affect our business, results of operations and financial condition.
