PART I. FINANCIAL INFORMATION
REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Board of Directors and Stockholders
CA, Inc.:
We have reviewed the condensed consolidated balance sheet of CA, Inc. and subsidiaries as of June 30, 2014 , and the related condensed consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, and cash flows for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 . These condensed consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management.
We conducted our review in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). A review of interim financial information consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.
Based on our review, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the condensed consolidated financial statements referred to above for them to be in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the consolidated balance sheet of CA, Inc. and subsidiaries as of March 31, 2014 , and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the year then ended (not presented herein); and in our report dated May 19, 2014, we expressed an unqualified opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheet as of March 31, 2014 , is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

CA, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS


NOTE A – ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation: The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of CA, Inc. (Company) have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP), as defined in Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) 270, for interim financial information and with the instructions to Rule 10-01 of Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. For further information, refer to the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014 ( 2014 Form 10-K).
In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. All such adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Although these estimates are based on management’s knowledge of current events and actions it may undertake in the future, these estimates may ultimately differ from actual results.
Operating results for the three months ended June 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2015 .
Divestitures: In the first quarter of fiscal year 2015, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to divest its CA arcserve data protection solution assets (arcserve). In the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2014, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to divest its CA ERwin Data Modeling solution assets (ERwin). The results of operations associated with these businesses have been presented as discontinued operations in the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013. The effects of the discontinued operations were immaterial to the Company's Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at June 30, 2014 and March 31, 2014. See Note B, “Divestitures,” for additional information.
Cash and Cash Equivalents: The Company’s cash and cash equivalents are held in numerous locations throughout the world, with approximately 67% being held by the Company’s foreign subsidiaries outside the United States at June 30, 2014 .
Fair Value Measurements: Fair value is the price that would be received for an asset or the amount paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. The Company is required to classify certain assets and liabilities based on the following fair value hierarchy:
Level 1: Quoted prices in active markets that are unadjusted and accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities;
Level 2: Quoted prices for identical assets and liabilities in markets that are not active, or quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or financial instruments for which significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly; and
Level 3: Prices or valuations that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable.
See Note H, “Fair Value Measurements,” for additional information.
Deferred Revenue (Billed or Collected): The Company accounts for unearned revenue on billed amounts due from customers on a gross basis. Unearned revenue on billed installments (collected or uncollected) is reported as deferred revenue in the liability section of the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Deferred revenue (billed or collected) excludes unbilled contractual commitments executed under license and maintenance agreements that will be billed in future periods. See Note F, “Deferred Revenue,” for additional information.
New Accounting Pronouncements: In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09 (ASU 2014-09), Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) , which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. ASU 2014-09 will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective. The new standard is effective for annual and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016. Early application is not permitted. ASU 2014-09 is effective for the Company in its first quarter of fiscal year 2018 using either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. The Company is evaluating the effect that ASU 2014-09 will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. ASU 2014-09 is expected to have a significant impact on the Company's revenue recognition policies and disclosures. The Company has not yet selected a transition method nor has it determined the effect of the standard on its ongoing financial reporting.

NOTE B – DIVESTITURES
In the first quarter of fiscal year 2015, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to divest arcserve. In the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2014, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to divest ERwin. The Company currently expects to close the sale of each of arcserve and ERwin during fiscal year 2015. The sale of each of arcserve and ERwin results from an effort to rationalize the Company's product portfolio within the Enterprise Solutions segment.
The income from operations of discontinued components for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 consisted of the following:

NOTE C – SEVERANCE AND EXIT COSTS
Fiscal Year 2014 Rebalancing Plan : In fiscal year 2014, the Company's Board of Directors approved and committed to a rebalancing plan (Fiscal 2014 Plan) to better align its business priorities. This included a termination of approximately 1,800 employees and global facility consolidations. Costs associated with the Fiscal 2014 Plan are presented in "Other expenses, net" in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. The total amount incurred to date for severance and facility exit costs under the Fiscal 2014 Plan is approximately $158 million and $22 million , respectively. The Company expects total costs of the Fiscal 2014 Plan to be approximately $190 million (including severance costs of approximately $168 million and global facility exit costs of approximately $22 million ). Severance and facility consolidation actions under the Fiscal 2014 Plan were substantially completed by the end of fiscal year 2014.
Accrued severance and exit costs and changes in the accruals during the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 were as follows:

The severance liabilities are included in “Accrued salaries, wages and commissions” in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The facility exit liabilities are included in “Accrued expenses and other current liabilities” and “Other noncurrent liabilities” in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The Company evaluates the useful lives and recoverability of capitalized software and other intangible assets when events or changes in circumstances indicate that an impairment may exist. These evaluations require complex assumptions about key factors such as future customer demand, technology trends and the impact of those factors on the technology the Company acquires and develops for its products. Impairments or revisions to useful lives could result from the use of alternative assumptions that reflect reasonably possible outcomes related to future customer demand or technology trends for assets within the Enterprise Solutions segment.

NOTE G – DERIVATIVES
The Company is exposed to financial market risks arising from changes in interest rates and foreign exchange rates. Changes in interest rates could affect the Company’s monetary assets and liabilities, and foreign exchange rate changes could affect the Company’s foreign currency denominated monetary assets and liabilities and forecasted transactions. The Company enters into derivative contracts with the intent of mitigating a portion of these risks.
Interest Rate Swaps: The Company has interest rate swaps with a total notional value of $500 million , which swap a total of $500 million of its 6.125% Senior Notes due December 2014 into floating interest rate debt through December 1, 2014. These swaps are designated as fair value hedges.
At June 30, 2014 , the fair value of these derivatives was an asset of approximately $5 million , which is included in “Other current assets” in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.
At March 31, 2014 , the fair value of these derivatives was an asset of approximately $8 million , which is included in “Other current assets” in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Foreign Currency Contracts: The Company enters into foreign currency option and forward contracts to manage foreign currency risks. The Company has not designated its foreign exchange derivatives as hedges. Accordingly, changes in fair value from these contracts are recorded as “Other expenses, net” in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
At June 30, 2014 , foreign currency contracts outstanding consisted of purchase and sales contracts with a total gross notional value of approximately $1,079 million and durations of less than nine months . The net fair value of these contracts at June 30, 2014 was a net asset o f approximately $8 million , of which approximately $10 million is included in “Other current assets” and approximately $2 million is included in “Accrued expenses and other current liabilities” in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.
At March 31, 2014 , foreign currency contracts outstanding consisted of purchase and sales contracts with a total gross notional value of approximately $250 million and durations of less than three months . The net fair value of these contracts at March 31, 2014 was a net asset of approximately $1 million , of which approximately $2 million is included in “Other current assets” and approximately $1 million is included in “Accrued expenses and other current liabilities” in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet.
A summary of the effect of the interest rate and foreign exchange derivatives on the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations was as follows:

The Company is subject to collateral security arrangements with most of its major counterparties. These arrangements require the Company or the counterparty to post collateral when the derivative fair values exceed contractually established thresholds. The aggregate fair values of all derivative instruments under these collateralized arrangements were in a net asset position at June 30, 2014 and March 31, 2014 . The Company posted no collateral at June 30, 2014 or March 31, 2014 . Under these agreements, if the Company’s credit ratings had been downgraded one rating level, the Company would still not have been required to post collateral.

At June 30, 2014 and March 31, 2014 , the facility exit reserve included approximately $10 million and $11 million , respectively, in “Accrued expenses and other current liabilities” and approximately $15 million and $18 million , respectively, in “Other noncurrent liabilities” in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets (Level 3).

NOTE I – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

On March 24, 2014, the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) filed under seal in the United States District Court for the District of Columbia a complaint against the Company in partial intervention under the qui tam provisions of the civil False Claims Act (FCA). The underlying complaint was filed under seal by an individual plaintiff on August 24, 2009. On May 29, 2014, the case was unsealed. Both the DOJ and the individual plaintiff have filed amended complaints. The current complaints relate to government sales transactions under the Company’s General Services Administration (GSA) schedule contract, entered into in 2002 and extended until present through subsequent amendments. In sum and substance, the current complaints allege that the Company provided inaccurate commercial discounting information to the GSA during contract negotiations and that, as a result, the GSA’s contract discount was lower than it otherwise would have been. In addition, the complaints allege that the Company failed to apply the full negotiated discount in some instances and to pay sufficient rebates pursuant to the contract’s price reduction clause. In addition to FCA claims, the current complaints also assert common law causes of action. The DOJ complaint seeks an unspecified amount of damages, including treble damages and civil penalties. The complaint by the individual plaintiff alleges that the U.S. government has suffered damages in excess of $100 million and seeks an unspecified amount of damages, including treble damages and civil penalties. The Company has filed motions to dismiss the current complaints. Those motions are pending and discussions with the DOJ and GSA are continuing. The Company cannot predict the amount of damages likely to result from this matter. Although the timing and ultimate outcome of this matter cannot be determined, the Company believes that the material aspects of the liability theories set forth in the complaints are unfounded. The Company also believes that it has meritorious defenses and intends to vigorously contest the lawsuit.
Based on the Company's experience, management believes that the damages amounts claimed in a case are not a meaningful indicator of the potential liability. Claims, suits, investigations and proceedings are inherently uncertain and it is not possible to predict the ultimate outcome of cases. The Company believes that it has meritorious defenses in connection with its current lawsuits and material claims and disputes, and intends to vigorously contest each of them.
In the opinion of the Company's management based upon information currently available to the Company, while the outcome of these lawsuits, claims and disputes is uncertain, the likely results of these lawsuits, claims and disputes are not expected, either individually or in the aggregate, to have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows, although the effect could be material to the Company's results of operations or cash flows for any interim reporting period. For some of these matters, the Company is unable to estimate a range of reasonably possible loss due to the stage of the matter and/or other particular circumstances of the matter. For others, a range of reasonably possible loss can be estimated. For those matters for which such a range can be estimated, the Company estimates that, in the aggregate, the range of reasonably possible loss is from zero to $30 million . This is in addition to amounts, if any, that have been accrued for those matters.
The Company is obligated to indemnify its officers and directors under certain circumstances to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law. As a part of that obligation, the Company may, from time to time, advance certain attorneys' fees and expenses incurred by officers and directors in various lawsuits and investigations, as permitted under Delaware law.

NOTE J – STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY
Stock Repurchases:  In May 2014, the Company's Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program that authorizes the Company to acquire up to $1 billion of its common stock. During the three months ended June 30, 2014 , the Company repurchased approximately 1.7 million shares of its common stock for approximately $50 million . At June 30, 2014 , the Company remained authorized to purchase approximately $950 million of its common stock under its current stock repurchase program.
Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss: Foreign currency translation losses included in "Accumulated other comprehensive loss" in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at June 30, 2014 and March 31, 2014 were approximately $161 million and $171 million , respectively.

NOTE K – INCOME FROM CONTINUING OPERATIONS PER COMMON SHARE
Basic net income per common share excludes dilution and is calculated by dividing net income allocable to common shares by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted net income per common share is calculated by dividing net income allocable to common shares by the weighted average number of common shares, as adjusted for the potential dilutive effect of non-participating share-based awards.
The following table presents basic and diluted income from continuing operations per common share information for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 :

For the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 , respectively, approximately 1 million and 4 million shares of Company common stock underlying restricted stock awards and options to purchase common stock were excluded from the calculation because their effect on income per share was anti-dilutive during the respective periods. Weighted average restricted stock awards of approximately 4 million and 5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 , respectively, were considered participating securities in the calculation of net income allocable to common stockholders.

There were no capitalized share-based compensation costs for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 .
The value of performance share unit (PSU) awards is determined using the closing price of the Company’s common stock on the last trading day of the quarter until the PSUs are granted. Compensation costs for the PSUs are amortized over the requisite service periods based on the expected level of achievement of the performance targets. At the conclusion of the performance periods for the PSUs, the applicable number of shares of restricted stock awards (RSAs), restricted stock units (RSUs) or unrestricted shares granted may vary based upon the level of achievement of the performance targets and the approval of the Company’s Compensation and Human Resources Committee (which may reduce any award for any reason in its discretion).

The risk-free rate for periods within the contractual term of the stock options is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the time of grant.
(3)
The expected life is the number of years the Company estimates that options will be outstanding prior to exercise. The Company’s computation of expected life was determined based on the simplified method (the average of the vesting period and option term).
The shares under the 1-year PSU awards for the fiscal year 2014 and 2013 incentive plan years under the Company's long-term incentive plans were granted in the first quarter of fiscal years 2015 and 2014 , respectively.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan: The Company maintains the 2012 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (ESPP) for all eligible employees. The ESPP offer period is semi-annual and allows participants to purchase the Company’s common stock at 95% of the closing price of the stock on the last day of the offer period. The ESPP is non-compensatory. For the six-month offer period ended June 30, 2014 , the Company issued approximately 0.1 million shares under the ESPP at $27.30 per share. As of June 30, 2014 , approximately 29.5 million shares are available for future issuances under the ESPP.

NOTE M – INCOME TAXES
Income tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2014 was approximately $87 million compared with an income tax benefit of approximately $122 million for the three months ended June 30, 2013 . For the three months ended June 30, 2013 , the Company recognized a net discrete tax benefit of approximately $181 million , resulting primarily from the resolutions of uncertain tax positions upon the completion of the examination of the Company's U.S. federal income tax returns for the tax years ended March 31, 2005, 2006 and 2007.
The Company’s estimated annual effective tax rate, which excludes the impact of discrete items, for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 was 29.0% and 28.5% , respectively. Changes in tax laws, the outcome of tax audits and any other changes in potential tax liabilities may result in additional tax expense or benefit in fiscal year 2015 , which are not considered in the Company's estimated annual effective tax rate. While the Company does not currently view any such items as individually material to the results of the Company's consolidated financial position or results of operations, the impact of certain items may yield additional tax expense or benefit in the remaining quarters of fiscal year 2015 and the Company is anticipating a fiscal year 2015 effective tax rate of approximately 30% .
While it is difficult to predict the final outcome or the timing of resolution of any particular tax matter, the Company believes that its financial statements reflect the probable outcome of uncertain tax positions. The Company may adjust these uncertain tax positions, as well as any related interest or penalties, in light of changing facts and circumstances, including the settlement of income tax audits and the expirations of statutes of limitation. To the extent a settlement differs from the amounts previously reserved, that difference generally would be recognized as a component of income tax expense in the period of resolution. Although the timing of the resolution of income tax examinations is highly uncertain, it is reasonably possible that settlements, payments and new information in the next 12 months related to certain federal, foreign and state tax issues may result in changes to the Company’s uncertain tax positions, including issues involving taxation of international operations and other matters. The Company believes that such reasonably possible changes within the next 12 months may reduce the balance of unrecognized tax benefits by an amount up to $30 million .

NOTE N – SUPPLEMENTAL STATEMENT OF CASH FLOWS INFORMATION
For the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 , interest payments, net were approximately $25 million and $26 million , respectively, and income taxes paid, net were approximately $30 million and $195 million , respectively. For the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 , the excess tax benefits from share-based incentive awards included in financing activities from continuing operations were approximately $3 million and $3 million , respectively.

Table of Contents
CA, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Non-cash financing activities for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 consisted of treasury common shares issued in connection with the following: share-based incentive awards issued under the Company’s equity compensation plans of approximately $42 million (net of approximately $27 million of income taxes withheld) and $46 million (net of approximately $27 million of income taxes withheld), respectively; and discretionary stock contributions to the CA, Inc. Savings Harvest Plan of approximately $26 million and $28 million , respectively. Non-cash financing activities for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 included approximately $3 million and $2 million , respectively, in treasury common shares issued in connection with the Company’s Employee Stock Purchase Plan.
The Company uses a notional pooling arrangement with an international bank to help manage global liquidity. Under this pooling arrangement, the Company and its participating subsidiaries may maintain either cash deposit or borrowing positions through local currency accounts with the bank, so long as the aggregate position of the global pool is a notionally calculated net cash deposit. Because it maintains a security interest in the cash deposits and has the right to offset the cash deposits against the borrowings, the bank provides the Company and its participating subsidiaries favorable interest terms on both.

NOTE O – SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Company’s Mainframe Solutions and Enterprise Solutions segments comprise its software business organized by the nature of the Company’s software offerings and the platform on which the products operate. The Services segment comprises product implementation, consulting, customer education and customer training, including those directly related to the Mainframe Solutions and Enterprise Solutions software that the Company sells to its customers.
Segment expenses do not include share-based compensation expense; amortization of purchased software; amortization of other intangible assets; certain foreign exchange derivative hedging gains and losses; costs associated with the Company's Fiscal 2014 Plan; and other miscellaneous costs. The Company considers all costs of internally developed software as segment expense in the period the costs are incurred and as a result, the Company will add back capitalized internal software costs and exclude amortization of internally developed software costs previously capitalized from segment expenses. A measure of segment assets is not currently provided to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and has therefore not been disclosed.

Item 2: MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements
This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (Form 10-Q) contains certain forward-looking information relating to CA, Inc. (which we refer to as the “Company,” “Registrant,” “CA Technologies,” “CA,” “we,” “our” or “us”), that is based on the beliefs of, and assumptions made by, our management as well as information currently available to management. When used in this Form 10-Q, the words “believes,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “estimates,” “targets” and similar expressions relating to the future are intended to identify forward-looking information. Forward-looking information includes, for example, the statements relating to the future made in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (MD&A), but also statements relating to the future that appear in other parts of this Form 10-Q. This forward-looking information reflects our current views with respect to future events and is subject to certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions.
The declaration and payment of future dividends is subject to the determination of the Company’s Board of Directors, in its sole discretion, after considering various factors, including the Company’s financial condition, historical and forecast operating results, and available cash flow, as well as any applicable laws and contractual covenants and any other relevant factors.

Repurchases under the Company’s stock repurchase program are expected to be made with cash on hand and may be made from time to time, subject to market conditions and other factors, in the open market, through solicited or unsolicited privately negotiated transactions or otherwise. The program does not obligate the Company to acquire any particular amount of common stock, and it may be modified or suspended at any time at the Company’s discretion.
A number of important factors could cause actual results or events to differ materially from those indicated by forward-looking statements, including: the ability to achieve success in the Company’s strategy by, among other things, effectively managing the Company’s sales force to enable the Company to maintain and enhance its strong relationships in its traditional customer base and to increase penetration and accelerate growth in customer segments and geographic regions where the Company currently may not have a strong presence or the Company has underserved, enabling the sales force to sell new products, improving the Company’s brand, technology and innovation awareness in the marketplace and ensuring the Company’s set of cloud computing, application development and IT operations (DevOps), Software-as-a-Service, mobile device management and other new offerings address the needs of a rapidly changing market, while not adversely affecting the demand for the Company’s traditional products or its profitability; global economic factors or political events beyond the Company’s control; general economic conditions and credit constraints, or unfavorable economic conditions in a particular region, industry or business sector; the failure to innovate and/or adapt to technological changes and introduce new software products and services in a timely manner; competition in product and service offerings and pricing; the failure to expand partner programs; the ability to retain and attract adequate qualified personnel; the ability of the Company's products to remain compatible with ever-changing operating environments, platforms or third-party products; the ability to successfully integrate acquired companies and products into the Company's existing business; the ability to adequately manage, evolve and protect the Company's information systems, infrastructure and processes; risks associated with sales to government customers; breaches of the Company's data center, network and software products, and the IT environments of the Company's vendors and customers; discovery of errors or omissions in the Company’s software products or documentation and potential product liability claims; the failure to protect the Company’s intellectual property rights and source code; events or circumstances that would require the Company to record an impairment charge relating to the Company's goodwill or capitalized software and other intangible assets balances; access to software licensed from third parties; risks associated with the use of software from open source code sources; third-party claims of intellectual property infringement or royalty payments; fluctuations in the number, terms and duration of the Company’s license agreements as well as the timing of orders from customers and channel partners; the failure to renew large license transactions on a satisfactory basis; potential tax liabilities; changes in market conditions or the Company’s credit ratings; fluctuations in foreign currencies; the failure to effectively execute the Company’s workforce reductions, workforce rebalancing and facilities consolidations; successful and secure outsourcing of various functions to third parties; and other factors described more fully in this Form 10-Q and the Company’s other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties occur, or should our assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from the forward-looking information described in this Form 10-Q as believed, planned, anticipated, expected, estimated, targeted or similarly identified. We do not intend to update these forward-looking statements, except as otherwise required by law. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date hereof. This MD&A is provided as a supplement to, and should be read in conjunction with, our financial statements and the accompanying notes to the financial statements.

OVERVIEW
We are one of the world’s leading providers of information technology (IT) management software and solutions. Our solutions help organizations of all sizes develop, manage, and secure complex IT environments that increase productivity and enhance the competitiveness in their businesses. We do this across a wide range of environments such as mainframe, distributed, cloud, and mobile. The majority of the Global Fortune 500 relies on us to help manage their IT environments.
Our objective is to be the world’s leading independent software provider for IT management and security solutions to help organizations and enterprises develop, manage, and secure modern IT architectures, across mainframe, distributed, mobile and cloud environments. To accomplish this, key elements of our strategy include:
Innovating in key product areas to extend our market leadership and differentiation. Our product development strategy is built around three key growth areas, where we are focused on innovating and delivering differentiated products and solutions: application development and IT operations (DevOps), Management Cloud, and Security across multiple platforms.
Addressing shifts in market dynamics and technology. We will innovate to deliver new differentiated solutions that enable our customers to manage the challenges and capture the opportunities of disruptive technologies such as the ability to harvest big data, the shift to software-defined IT, the proliferation of mobile technologies, social access (or social credentials) authentication, and the always on, ubiquitously connected “Internet of Things.”
Accelerating growth in our global customer base. We are focused on maintaining strong relationships with our core, large enterprise customer base, and will proactively target growth with these customers as well as new large enterprises we do not currently serve. In parallel, we are broadening our customer base to new buyer segments beyond the customer’s Chief Information Officer and IT department and increasingly to geographic regions we have underserved.
Pursuing new business models and expanded routes to market. While our traditional on-premise software delivery remains core to our enterprise customers, we see Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) and managed services as increasingly attractive for our customers. This simplifies their decision-making and accelerates the value they can derive from new solution investments.
We have a broad and deep portfolio of software solutions with which to execute our business strategy. We organize our offerings in Mainframe Solutions, Enterprise Solutions and Services segments.
Mainframe Solutions products are designed mainly for the IBM System z mainframe platform, which runs many of our largest customers’ mission-critical applications. We help customers seamlessly manage their mainframe as part of their evolving data center through flexible management approaches, cross-platform visibility and workload portability.
Enterprise Solutions products operate on non-mainframe platforms and include our DevOps, Management Cloud, and Security product groups. DevOps includes application delivery, application performance management and infrastructure management. Management Cloud helps customers optimize their investments, projects, resources and processes. Security delivers identity-centric security solutions to meet the needs of today’s mobile, cloud-connected, open enterprise.
Services helps customers reach their IT and business goals by enabling the rapid implementation and adoption of our mainframe solutions and enterprise solutions.
Our traditional core customers generally consist of large enterprises that have computing environments from multiple vendors and are highly complex. We currently serve customers across most major industries worldwide, including banks, insurance companies, other financial services providers, government agencies, global service providers, telecommunication providers, manufacturers, technology companies, retailers, educational organizations and health care institutions.
We offer our solutions through our direct sales force and indirectly through our partners. We remain focused on strengthening relationships with our core customers--which we refer to as our “Platinum” customers, consisting of our top 500 accounts-- through product leadership, account management and a differentiated customer experience. We believe enhanced relationships in our traditional customer base of large enterprises with multi-year enterprise license agreements will drive renewals and provide opportunities to increase account penetration that will help to drive revenue growth.
At the same time, we continue to dedicate sales resources and deploy additional solutions to address opportunities to sell to new enterprises and to expand our relationship with existing non-core customers--which we refer to as our “Named” customers. In addition to this dedication of additional sales resources, we service some of these customers through partners. We believe we can grow our business and increase market share by delivering differentiated technology and collaborating with partners, including service providers, to leverage their relationships, market reach and implementation capacity. We are deploying new routes to market, and simplifying the buying and deployment process for our customers.
This customer focus allows us to better align marketing and sales resources with how customers want to buy. We have also implemented broad-based business initiatives to drive accountability for sales execution.

Work is underway to deploy an updated global branding and marketing program for CA Technologies to significantly enhance our connection with new and existing customers, introduce the market to new areas of our capability and contribute directly to business growth and new customer acquisitions. Marketing efforts are key to our ability to expand our customer base, reach new segments and grow in key global markets.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Our first quarter results are in-line with our expectations, strengthened by continued financial discipline and a strong performance in connection with renewals. New sales associated with renewals with our Platinum customer accounts performed well. Professional services performance unfavorably affected both revenue and bookings for the quarter. Lastly, we announced the divestiture of the CA arcserve data protection business (arcserve), further managing our portfolio and sharpening our focus.
A summary of key results for the first quarter of fiscal 2015 compared with the first quarter of fiscal 2014 is as follows:
Revenue:
Total revenue declined 2% as a result of a decrease in subscription and maintenance revenue and a decrease in professional services revenue. The decrease in professional services revenue was primarily due to a decrease in the size and number of professional services engagements during the first quarter of fiscal 2015, including non-core engagements with government customers that are not directly related to our software product sales. The decrease in subscription and maintenance revenue in the first quarter of fiscal 2015 compared with the first quarter of fiscal 2014 was primarily attributable to a decrease in prior period new product and mainframe capacity sales. We currently expect the percentage decline in professional services revenue to be greater than the percentage decline in total revenue for fiscal 2015 compared with fiscal 2014. This decline is primarily a result of the decrease in non-core professional services engagements with government customers that are not directly related to our software product sales. 
As a result of prior period sales under-performance, we continue to expect a year-over-year decrease in total revenue for fiscal 2015 compared with fiscal 2014 due to the high percentage of our revenue that is recognized from license agreements with customers signed in prior periods that are being recognized ratably. Excluding the effect of foreign exchange, we currently expect the year-over-year percentage decline in total revenue for fiscal 2015 compared with fiscal 2014 to be similar to the year-over-year percentage decline in total revenue for fiscal 2014 compared with fiscal 2013.
Bookings:
Total bookings decreased 9% primarily due to a year-over-year decrease in professional services bookings and to a lesser extent, a decrease in subscription and maintenance bookings.
Mainframe solutions renewals decreased year-over-year. The decrease was partially offset by an increase in enterprise solutions renewals primarily due to the composition of our renewal portfolio being more heavily weighted to enterprise solutions renewals in the quarter.
Total new product sales, a subset of our total bookings, for the first quarter of fiscal 2015 was consistent with the first quarter of fiscal 2014. For the first quarter of fiscal 2015, mainframe solutions new sales including capacity were down in the high-single-digit percentage range. The decrease in mainframe solutions new product sales was primarily due to the composition of the renewal portfolio. Enterprise solutions new product sales increased by a mid-single-digit percentage as a result of new sales in connection with renewals within our Platinum customer accounts and good sales execution in the Europe, Middle East and Africa region during the first quarter of fiscal 2015.
We expect our fiscal 2015 renewal portfolio to decline by a high-single-digit percentage compared with fiscal 2014. Excluding the impact from a contract renewal with a large system integrator which occurred during the third quarter of fiscal 2014, we expect the value of our fiscal 2015 renewal portfolio to be consistent with the value of our fiscal 2014 renewal portfolio. For the second quarter of fiscal 2015, we expect renewals to decline compared with the second quarter of fiscal 2014 and as a result, we expect lower new product and capacity sales in connection with renewals.
Expenses:
Total expenses before interest and income taxes decreased compared with the year-ago period, primarily due to a decrease in cost associated with our fiscal 2014 workforce rebalancing plan (Fiscal 2014 Plan). The decrease was also attributable to the timing of selling and marketing expenses and a decrease in personnel-related costs, partially offset by an increase in product development and enhancements expenses. We expect an increase in the third quarter of fiscal 2015 for selling and marketing expenses, as a result of the timing of CA World ‘14.

Table of Contents

Income taxes:
Income tax expense for the first quarter of fiscal 2015 was $87 million , compared with an income tax benefit for the first quarter fiscal 2014 of $122 million . During the first quarter of fiscal 2014, we recognized a net discrete tax benefit of $181 million, resulting primarily from the resolutions of uncertain tax positions from final settlement of the examination of our U.S. federal income tax returns.
We expect a fiscal 2015 effective tax rate of 30% .
Diluted income per common share from continuing operations:    
Diluted income per common share decreased to $0.48 from $0.72 , primarily due to the income tax benefit of $122 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2014 compared with the income tax expense of $87 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2015.
Segment results:
Mainframe Solutions revenue for the first quarter of fiscal 2015 decreased slightly compared with the year-ago period primarily due to the decrease in prior period new product and mainframe capacity sales. The increase in operating margin for the first quarter of fiscal 2015 compared with the year-ago period was primarily the result of the timing of selling and marketing expenses and an overall decrease in personnel-related costs.
Enterprise Solutions revenue for the first quarter of fiscal 2015 decreased compared with the year-ago period primarily due to a decrease in new product sales in the prior fiscal year. This decline in prior year new product sales was primarily due to a decrease in sales of certain mature product lines, partially offset by an increase in sales of recently acquired products. Enterprise Solutions operating margin for the first quarter of fiscal 2015 increased compared with the year-ago period as a result of the timing of selling and marketing expenses and an overall decrease in personnel-related costs.
Services revenue for the first quarter of fiscal 2015 decreased compared with the first quarter of fiscal 2014 primarily as a result of a decrease in the size and number of professional services engagements during the first quarter of fiscal 2015, including non-core engagements with government customers that are not directly related to our software product sales, as well as the timing of the revenue recognition for some engagements that were associated with product sales for which the revenue will be recognized on a ratable basis. We expect the percentage decline in professional services revenue to be greater than the percentage decline in total revenue for fiscal 2015 compared with fiscal 2014. Operating margin for our Services segment decreased in the first quarter of fiscal 2015 compared with the first quarter of fiscal 2014 as a result of lower utilization rates for professional services personnel due to the decrease in the number of professional services engagements.
Cash flows from continuing operations:
Net cash provided by operating activities increased $163 million compared with the year-ago period primarily due to a decrease in income tax payments of $165 million and a decrease in vendor disbursements and payroll of $45 million . These favorable effects were partially offset by a decrease in cash collections of $44 million and an increase in payments associated with the Fiscal 2014 Plan of $10 million.

QUARTERLY UPDATE
In May 2014, the Company appointed Amit Chatterjee as its Executive Vice President, Enterprise Solutions and Technology Group. Mr. Chatterjee will have overall responsibility for strategy and execution across the full portfolio of Enterprise Solutions businesses, from development to commercialization.
In June 2014, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to divest arcserve.

Refer to the discussion in the “Liquidity and Capital Resources” section of this MD&A for additional information on expected future cash collections from committed contracts and revenue backlog.
Analyses of our performance indicators shown above and our segment performance can be found in the “Results of Operations” and “Liquidity and Capital Resources” sections of this MD&A.
Total Revenue — Total revenue is the amount of revenue recognized during the reporting period from the sale of license, maintenance and professional services agreements. Amounts recognized as subscription and maintenance revenue are recognized ratably over the term of the agreement. Professional services revenue is generally recognized as the services are performed or recognized on a ratable basis over the term of the related software license. Software fees and other revenue generally represents license fee revenue recognized at the inception of a license agreement (up-front basis) and also includes our SaaS revenue, which is recognized as services are provided.
Total Bookings — Total bookings, or sales, includes the incremental value of all subscription, maintenance and professional services contracts and software fees and other contracts entered into during the reporting period and is generally reflective of the amount of products and services during the period that our customers have agreed to purchase from us. Revenue for bookings attributed to sales of software products for which license fee revenue is recognized on an up-front basis is reflected in “Software fees and other” in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations.
As our business strategy has evolved, our management looks within total bookings at renewal bookings, which we define as bookings attributable to the renewable value of a prior contract ( i.e. , the maintenance value and, in the case of non-perpetual licenses, the license value), and at total new product sales, which we define as sales of mainframe and enterprise solutions products, and mainframe solutions capacity that are new or in addition to products or mainframe solutions capacity previously contracted for by a customer. Mainframe solutions capacity and new product sales growth can be inconsistent on both a quarterly and annual basis. We believe the period-over-period change in mainframe solutions new sales and capacity combined is a more appropriate measure of performance. Starting this quarter, we will provide only total mainframe solutions new sales information, which will include mainframe solutions capacity.

Table of Contents

The amount of new product sales for a period, as currently tracked by us, requires estimation by management and has not been historically reported. Within a given period, the amount of new product sales may not be material to the change in our total bookings or revenue compared with prior periods. New product sales can be reflected as subscription and maintenance bookings in the period (for which revenue would be recognized ratably over the term of the contract) or in software fees and other bookings (which are recognized as software fees and other revenue in the current period).
Subscription and Maintenance Bookings — Subscription and maintenance bookings is the aggregate incremental amount we expect to collect from our customers over the terms of the underlying subscription and maintenance agreements entered into during a reporting period. These amounts include the sale of products directly by us and may include additional products, services or other fees for which we have not established vendor specific objective evidence (VSOE). Subscription and maintenance bookings also includes indirect sales by distributors and volume partners, value-added resellers and exclusive representatives to end-users, where the contracts incorporate the right for end-users to receive unspecified future software products, and other contracts without these rights entered into in close proximity or contemplation of such agreements. These amounts are expected to be recognized ratably as subscription and maintenance revenue over the applicable term of the agreements. Subscription and maintenance bookings excludes the value associated with perpetual licenses for which revenue is recognized on an up-front basis, SaaS offerings and professional services arrangements.
The license and maintenance agreements that contribute to subscription and maintenance bookings represent binding payment commitments by customers over periods that range generally from three to five years, although in certain cases customer commitments can be for longer or shorter periods. These current period bookings are often renewals of prior contracts that also had various durations, usually from three to five years. The amount of new subscription and maintenance bookings recorded in a period is affected by the volume, duration and value of contracts renewed during that period. Subscription and maintenance bookings typically increases in each consecutive quarter during a fiscal year, with the first quarter having the least bookings and the fourth quarter having the most bookings. However, subscription and maintenance bookings may not always follow the pattern of increasing in consecutive quarters during a fiscal year, and the quarter-to-quarter differences in subscription and maintenance bookings may vary. Given the varying durations of the contracts being renewed, year-over-year comparisons of bookings are not always indicative of the overall bookings trend.
Within bookings, we also consider the yield on our renewals. We define “renewal yield” as the percentage of the renewable value of a prior contract ( i.e., the maintenance value and, in the case of non-perpetual licenses, the license value) realized in current period bookings. The renewable value of a prior contract is an estimate affected by various factors including contractual renewal terms, price increases and other conditions. Price increases after December 31, 2012 are not considered as part of the renewable value of the prior period contract. We estimate the aggregate renewal yield for a quarter based on a review of material transactions representing a substantial majority of the dollar value of renewals during the current period. There may be no correlation between year-over-year changes in bookings and year-over-year changes in renewal yield, since renewal yield is based on the renewable value of contracts of various durations, most of which are longer than one year.
Additionally, period-to-period changes in subscription and maintenance bookings do not necessarily correlate to changes in cash receipts. The contribution to current period revenue from subscription and maintenance bookings from any single license or maintenance agreement is relatively small, since revenue is recognized ratably over the applicable term for these agreements.
Weighted Average Subscription and Maintenance License Agreement Duration in Years — The weighted average subscription and maintenance license agreement duration in years reflects the duration of all subscription and maintenance agreements executed during a period, weighted by the total contract value of each individual agreement. Weighted average subscription and maintenance license agreement duration in years can fluctuate from period to period depending on the mix of license agreements entered into during a period. Weighted average duration information is disclosed in order to provide additional understanding of the volume of our bookings.
Total Revenue Backlog — Total revenue backlog represents the aggregate amount we expect to recognize as revenue in the future as either subscription and maintenance revenue, professional services revenue or software fees and other revenue associated with contractually committed amounts billed or to be billed as of the balance sheet date. Total revenue backlog is composed of amounts recognized as liabilities in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as deferred revenue (billed or collected) as well as unearned amounts yet to be billed under subscription and maintenance and software fees and other agreements. Classification of amounts as current and noncurrent depends on when such amounts are expected to be earned and therefore recognized as revenue. Amounts that are expected to be earned and therefore recognized as revenue in 12 months or less are classified as current, while amounts expected to be earned in greater than 12 months are classified as noncurrent. The portion of the total revenue backlog that relates to subscription and maintenance agreements is recognized as revenue evenly on a monthly basis over the duration of the underlying agreements and is reported as subscription and maintenance revenue in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. Generally, we believe that an increase or decrease in the current portion of revenue backlog on a year-over-year basis is a favorable or unfavorable indicator of future subscription and maintenance revenue performance, respectively, due to the high percentage of our revenue that is recognized from license agreements that are already committed and being recognized ratably.

Revenue
Total Revenue
As more fully described below, the decrease in total revenue in the first quarter of fiscal 2015 compared with the first quarter of fiscal 2014 was primarily attributable to a decrease in subscription and maintenance revenue and professional services revenue.
As a result of under-performance of prior period sales, we continue to expect a year-over-year decrease in total revenue for fiscal 2015 compared with fiscal 2014 due to the high percentage of our revenue that is recognized from license agreements with customers signed in prior periods that are being recognized ratably. Excluding the effect of foreign exchange, we currently expect the year-over-year percentage decline in total revenue for fiscal 2015 compared with fiscal 2014 to be similar to the year-over-year percentage decline in total revenue for fiscal 2014 compared with fiscal 2013.

26

Table of Contents

Subscription and Maintenance
Subscription and maintenance revenue is the amount of revenue recognized ratably during the reporting period from: (i) subscription license agreements that were in effect during the period, generally including maintenance that is bundled with and not separately identifiable from software usage fees or product sales, (ii) maintenance agreements associated with providing customer technical support and access to software fixes and upgrades that are separately identifiable from software usage fees or product sales, and (iii) license agreements bundled with additional products, maintenance or professional services for which VSOE has not been established. These amounts include the sale of products directly by us, as well as by distributors and volume partners, value-added resellers and exclusive representatives to end-users, where the contracts incorporate the right for end-users to receive unspecified future software products, and other contracts entered into in close proximity or contemplation of such agreements.
The decrease in subscription and maintenance revenue in the first quarter of fiscal 2015 compared with the first quarter of fiscal 2014 was primarily attributable to a decrease in prior period new product and mainframe capacity sales. If there is an increase in amount of products sold on a stand-alone basis that is recognized within software fees and other revenue, this could have an unfavorable effect on our ability to sell such software in connection with a renewal, which could negatively affect our subscription and maintenance revenue.
Professional Services
Professional services revenue primarily includes product implementation, consulting, customer education and customer training. Professional services revenue for the first quarter of fiscal 2015 decreased compared with the first quarter of fiscal 2014 as a result of a decrease in the size and number of professional services engagements during the first quarter of fiscal 2015, including non-core engagements with government customers that are not directly related to our software product sales. In addition, the decrease was also attributable to the timing of the revenue recognition for some engagements that were associated with product sales for which the revenue will be recognized on a ratable basis. We currently expect the percentage decline in professional services revenue to be greater than the percentage decline in total revenue for fiscal 2015 compared with fiscal 2014. This decline is primarily a result of the decrease in non-core professional services engagements with government customers that are not directly related to our software product sales. We are also refocusing on professional services engagements that drive new product sales. In addition, for the long-term, we expect new versions of our on-premise software to be easier to implement and a higher percentage of our business to shift to a SaaS-based model, which could potentially reduce the demand for our professional services engagements.
Software Fees and Other
Software fees and other revenue consists primarily of revenue that is recognized on an up-front basis. This includes revenue associated with enterprise solutions products sold on an up-front basis directly by our sales force or through transactions with distributors and volume partners, value-added resellers and exclusive representatives (sometimes referred to as our “indirect” or “channel” revenue). It also includes our SaaS revenue, which is recognized as the services are provided, generally ratably over the term of the SaaS arrangement, rather than up-front.
Software fees and other revenue decreased for the first quarter of fiscal 2015 compared with the first quarter of fiscal 2014 as a result of a decrease in sales of enterprise solutions products recognized on an up-front basis and a decrease in non re-occurring fees which have been recognized as other revenue. The decrease in these sales of enterprise solutions products was primarily due to the increase in the amount of enterprise solutions product sales made in connection with renewal transactions that are recognized ratably within subscription and maintenance revenue. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in revenue from our SaaS offerings.

Revenue in the United States decreased primarily due to a decrease in subscription and maintenance revenue and professional services revenue. International revenue decreased primarily due to a decrease in subscription and maintenance revenue in our Asia Pacific Japan and Latin America regions.
Price changes do not have a material effect on revenue in a given period as a result of our ratable subscription model.
Expenses
Operating expenses for the first quarter of fiscal 2015 decreased compared with the first quarter of fiscal 2014 primarily as a result of a decrease in costs associated with our Fiscal 2014 Plan. The decrease was also attributable to the timing of selling and marketing expenses and a decrease in personnel-related costs, partially offset by an increase in product development and enhancements expenses. We expect an increase in the third quarter of fiscal 2015 for selling and marketing expenses, as a result of the timing of CA World ‘14.
Costs of Licensing and Maintenance
Costs of licensing and maintenance include technical support, royalties, and other manufacturing and distribution costs. The increase in costs of licensing and maintenance in the first quarter of fiscal 2015 compared with the first quarter of fiscal 2014 was primarily attributable to an increase in cost of goods sold related our SaaS hosting services and the distribution of enterprise solutions products.
Cost of Professional Services
Cost of professional services consists primarily of our personnel-related costs associated with providing professional services and training to customers. Cost of professional services for the first quarter of fiscal 2015 decreased compared with the first quarter of fiscal 2014 as a result of the decrease in the size and number of professional services engagements during the quarter, including non-core engagements with government customers that are not directly related to our software product sales. Operating margin for professional services decreased to 7% for the first quarter of fiscal 2015 compared with 10% for the first quarter of fiscal 2014 . The decrease in operating margin for professional services was primarily attributable to lower utilization rates for professional services personnel due to the decrease in the number of professional services engagements.
Operating margin for professional services does not include certain additional direct costs that are included within the Services segment (see “Performance of Segments” below). Expenses for the Services segment consist of cost of professional services and other direct costs included within selling and marketing and general and administrative expenses.
Amortization of Capitalized Software Costs
Amortization of capitalized software costs consists of the amortization of both purchased software and internally generated capitalized software development costs. Internally generated capitalized software development costs relate to new products and significant enhancements to existing software products that have reached the technological feasibility stage.
Amortization of capitalized software costs for the first quarter of fiscal 2015 increased slightly when compared with the first quarter of fiscal 2014 as a result of an increase in software development projects that have reached general availability in recent periods.
Our product offerings and go-to-market strategy continue to evolve to include solutions and product suites that may be delivered either on-premise or via SaaS or cloud platforms. We expect our product offerings to continue to become available to customers at more frequent intervals than our historical release cycles. We have also adopted the Agile development methodologies, which are characterized by a more dynamic development process with more frequent revisions to a product release's features and functions as the software is being developed. Due to these factors we have commenced capitalization much later in the development life cycle. As a result, product development and enhancements expenses have increased as the amount capitalized for internally developed software costs decreases. We no longer capitalize any significant amounts of internally developed software costs and as a result, future amortization of capitalized software costs is expected to decrease.
Selling and Marketing
Selling and marketing expenses include the costs relating to our sales force, channel partners, corporate and business marketing and customer training programs. For the first quarter of fiscal 2015 , the decrease in selling and marketing expenses compared with the first quarter of fiscal 2014 was primarily attributable to the unfavorable effect of $15 million in expenses associated with CA World ‘13, our promotional and marketing conference for current and prospective customers, which occurred during the first quarter of fiscal 2014. The decrease was also attributable to a decrease in commissions expenses due to the lower bookings during the first quarter of fiscal 2015, and a decrease in personnel-related costs, which was due to a reduced headcount as a result of the Fiscal 2014 Plan. For the third quarter of fiscal 2015, we expect an increase in selling and marketing expenses related to CA World ‘14, which is scheduled to take place during that quarter.
General and Administrative
General and administrative expenses include the costs of corporate and support functions, including our executive leadership and administration groups, finance, legal, human resources, corporate communications and other costs such as provisions for doubtful accounts. General and administrative expenses for the first quarter of fiscal 2015 were consistent with the first quarter of fiscal 2014 .

Table of Contents

Product Development and Enhancements
For the first quarters of fiscal 2015 and fiscal 2014 , product development and enhancements expenses represented 14% and 12% of total revenue, respectively. The increase in product development and enhancements expenses was primarily attributable to the decrease in capitalized software development costs of $23 million (see “Amortization of Capitalized Software Costs” above), partially offset by a decrease in personnel-related costs from a reduced headcount as a result of the Fiscal 2014 Plan.
Product development and enhancements expenses are expected to increase in future periods compared with the respective year-ago periods as the amount of capitalized software development costs decreases (see “Amortization of Capitalized Software Costs” above).
Depreciation and Amortization of Other Intangible Assets
For the first quarter of fiscal 2015 , depreciation and amortization expense decreased slightly compared with the first quarter of fiscal 2014 primarily due to a decrease in property and equipment depreciation expense.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2015, we reclassified $3 million of severance costs for the first quarter of fiscal 2014 to discontinued operations. Refer to Note B, “Divestitures,” in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
In fiscal 2014, the Company's Board of Directors approved and committed to the Fiscal 2014 Plan to better align its business priorities. The Company expects total costs of the Fiscal 2014 Plan to be $190 million. The total cumulative amount incurred to date for severance and facility exit costs under the Fiscal 2014 Plan is $180 million. Refer to Note C, "Severance and Exit Costs," in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
Interest Expense, Net
Interest expense, net for the first quarter of fiscal 2015 increased compared with the first quarter of fiscal 2014 as a result of additional interest expense relating to our debt offering that occurred during the second quarter of fiscal 2014. This was partially offset by an increase in interest income from higher cash and cash equivalent balances for the first quarter of fiscal 2015 compared with the first quarter of fiscal 2014.
Income Taxes
Income tax expense for the first quarter of fiscal 2015 was $87 million compared with an income tax benefit of $122 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2014 . For the first quarter of fiscal 2014 , we recognized a net discrete tax benefit of $181 million , resulting primarily from the resolutions of uncertain tax positions upon the completion of the examination of our U.S. federal income tax returns for the tax years ended March 31, 2005, 2006 and 2007.
Our estimated annual effective tax rate, which excludes the impact of discrete items, for the first quarter of fiscal 2015 and fiscal 2014 was 29.0% and 28.5% , respectively. Legislative changes in tax laws, the outcome of tax audits and any other changes in potential tax liabilities may result in additional tax expense or benefit in fiscal 2015 , which are not considered in our estimated annual effective tax rate. While we do not currently view any such items as individually material to the results of our consolidated financial position or results of operations, the impact of certain items may yield additional tax expense or benefit in the remaining quarters of fiscal 2015 and we are anticipating a fiscal 2015 effective tax rate of approximately 30% .

While it is difficult to predict the final outcome or the timing of resolution of any particular tax matter, we believe that our financial statements reflect the probable outcome of uncertain tax positions. We may adjust these uncertain tax positions, as well as any related interest or penalties, in light of changing facts and circumstances, including the settlement of income tax audits and the expirations of statutes of limitation. To the extent a settlement differs from the amounts previously reserved, that difference generally would be recognized as a component of income tax expense in the period of resolution. Although the timing of the resolution of income tax examinations is highly uncertain, it is reasonably possible that settlements, payments and new information in the next 12 months related to certain federal, foreign and state tax issues may result in changes to our uncertain tax positions, including issues involving taxation of international operations and other matters. We believe that such reasonably possible changes within the next 12 months may reduce the balance of unrecognized tax benefits by an amount up to $30 million .
Discontinued Operations
In the first quarter of fiscal year 2015, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to divest arcserve. In the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2014, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to divest its CA ERwin Data Modeling solution assets (ERwin). The results of discontinued operations for the first quarter of fiscal 2015 and fiscal 2014 included revenue of $31 million and $33 million, respectively, and income from operations, net of taxes, of $5 million and $5 million, respectively.
We expect to close the sale of each of arcserve and ERwin during fiscal 2015.
Refer to Note B, “Divestitures,” in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
Performance of Segments
Our Mainframe Solutions and Enterprise Solutions segments comprise our software business organized by the nature of our software offerings and the platform on which the products operate. The Services segment comprises product implementation, consulting, customer education and customer training, including those directly related to the Mainframe Solutions and Enterprise Solutions software that we sell to our customers.
Segment expenses do not include share-based compensation expense; amortization of purchased software; amortization of other intangible assets; certain foreign exchange derivative hedging gains and losses; costs associated with the Fiscal 2014 Plan; and other miscellaneous costs. We consider all costs of internally developed software as segment expense in the period the costs are incurred, and as a result, we will add back capitalized internal software costs and exclude amortization of internally developed software costs previously capitalized from segment expenses.

Enterprise Solutions revenue for the first quarter of fiscal 2015 decreased compared with the year-ago period primarily due to a decrease in new product sales in the prior fiscal year. This decline in prior year new product sales was primarily due to a decrease in sales of certain mature product lines, partially offset by an increase in sales of recently acquired products. Enterprise Solutions operating margin for the first quarter of fiscal 2015 increased compared with the year-ago period as a result of the timing of selling and marketing expenses and an overall decrease in personnel-related costs.

Services revenue for the first quarter of fiscal 2015 decreased compared with the first quarter of fiscal 2014 primarily as a result of a decrease in the size and number of professional services engagements during the first quarter of fiscal 2015, including non-core engagements with government customers that are not directly related to our software product sales. In addition, the decrease was also attributable to the timing of the revenue recognition for some engagements that were associated with product sales for which the revenue will be recognized on a ratable basis. We currently expect the percentage decline in services revenue to be greater than the percentage decline in total revenue for fiscal 2015 compared with fiscal 2014. This decline is primarily a result of the decrease in non-core professional services engagements with government customers that are not directly related to our software product sales. We are also refocusing on professional services engagements that drive new product sales. In addition, for the long-term, we expect new versions of our on-premise software to be easier to implement and a higher percentage of our business to shift to a SaaS-based model, which could potentially reduce the demand for our professional services engagements. Operating margin for our Services segment decreased to 6% in the first quarter of fiscal 2015 compared with 8% in the first quarter of fiscal 2014 as a result of lower utilization rates for services personnel due to the decrease in the number of professional services engagements.
Refer to Note O, “Segment Information,” in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
Bookings
Total Bookings
For the first quarter of fiscal 2015 and 2014 , total bookings were $724 million and $796 million , respectively. The decrease in bookings was primarily due to a year-over-year decrease in professional services bookings of $48 million, which was due to a decrease in the size and number of professional services engagements during the first quarter of fiscal 2015, including non-core engagements with government customers that are not directly related to our software product sales. Additionally, professional services bookings in the first quarter of fiscal 2014 were positively affected by several large engagements. To a lesser extent, there was also a decrease in subscription and maintenance bookings primarily due to a decrease in renewals.
Total renewals decreased from the year-ago-period by a mid-single-digit percentage, as a result of the decrease in mainframe solutions renewals, which was partially offset by an increase in enterprise solutions renewals.
Total new product sales, a subset of our total bookings, for the first quarter of fiscal 2015 was consistent with the first quarter of fiscal 2014.
Mainframe solutions capacity and new product sales growth can be inconsistent on both a quarterly and annual basis. We believe the period-over-period change in mainframe solutions new sales and capacity combined is a more appropriate measure of performance. Starting this quarter, we will provide only total mainframe solutions new sales information, which will include mainframe solutions capacity. For the first quarter of fiscal 2015, mainframe solutions new sales were down in the high-single-digit percentage range. The decrease in mainframe solutions new sales was primarily due to the composition of the renewal portfolio being more heavily weighted to enterprise solutions renewals in the quarter. Overall, we expect our mainframe solutions revenue to perform in line with the mainframe market. Enterprise solutions new product sales increased by a mid-single-digit percentage as a result of new sales in connection with renewals within our Platinum customer accounts and good sales execution in the Europe, Middle East and Africa region during the first quarter of fiscal 2015. New sales associated with renewals with our Platinum customer accounts performed well. We believe we need to increase our sales outside renewals with our Named and partner customer segments. We currently expect these customer segments to make a more significant contribution to total new product and mainframe solutions capacity sales in the second half of fiscal 2015.
Total new product sales increased in the United States and Asia Pacific Japan region, offset by a decrease in the Europe, Middle East and Africa and Latin America regions.

Table of Contents

Total bookings in the first quarter of fiscal 2015 compared with the year-ago period decreased in all regions except the United States. The increase in total bookings in the United States was primarily as a result of a contract renewal with a large financial services company.
Generally, quarters with smaller renewal inventories result in a lower level of bookings both because renewal bookings will be lower and, to a lesser extent, because renewals also remain an important opportunity for new product sales.
Subscription and Maintenance Bookings
For the first quarter of fiscal 2015 and fiscal 2014 , subscription and maintenance bookings were $603 million and $617 million , respectively. The decrease in subscription and maintenance bookings was primarily attributable to a decrease in our renewals.
During the first quarter of fiscal 2015 , we executed a total of eight license agreements with incremental contract values in excess of $10 million each, for an aggregate contract value of $330 million . During the first quarter of fiscal 2014 , we executed a total of nine license agreements with incremental contract values in excess of $10 million each, for an aggregate contract value of $323 million . Renewal bookings, as we report them, do not include new product and capacity sales and professional services arrangements. For the first quarter of fiscal 2015 renewal bookings decreased by a mid-single-digit percentage compared with the first quarter of fiscal 2014 .
Mainframe solutions renewals decreased year-over-year. The decrease was partially offset by an increase in enterprise solutions renewals primarily due to the composition of our renewal portfolio. Renewals can close before their scheduled renewal date for a number of reasons, including customer preference, customer needs for additional products or capacity, or our preference. The level of contracts closed prior to scheduled expiration dates and the reasons for such closings can vary from quarter to quarter. For the first quarter of fiscal 2015 , our percentage renewal yield was in the low 90 percent range. We expect our fiscal 2015 renewal portfolio to decline by a high-single-digit percentage compared with fiscal 2014. Excluding the impact from a contract renewal with a large system integrator which occurred during the third quarter of fiscal 2014, we expect the value of our fiscal 2015 renewal portfolio to be consistent with the value of our fiscal 2014 renewal portfolio. For the second quarter of fiscal 2015, we expect renewals to decline compared with the second quarter of fiscal 2014 and as a result, we expect lower new product and capacity sales in connection with renewals.
Annualized subscription and maintenance bookings is an indicator that normalizes the bookings recorded in the current period to account for contract length. It is calculated by dividing the total value of all new subscription and maintenance license agreements entered into during a period by the weighted average subscription and license agreement duration in years for all such subscription and maintenance license agreements recorded during the same period. For the first quarter of fiscal 2015 , annualized subscription and maintenance bookings decreased from $199 million in the prior year period to $168 million . The decrease in annualized subscription and maintenance bookings was primarily a result of the lower level of renewal bookings and an increase in the weighted average duration in years for contacts executed during the first quarter of fiscal 2015 compared with the first quarter of 2014. The weighted average subscription and maintenance license agreement duration in years increased from 3.10 in the first quarter of fiscal 2014 to 3.60 in the first quarter of fiscal 2015 . This increase was primarily attributable to the aforementioned contract renewal with a large financial services company.
Although each contract is subject to terms negotiated by the respective parties, we do not expect the weighted average subscription and maintenance agreement duration in years to change materially from historical levels for end-user contracts.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Our cash and cash equivalent balances are held in numerous locations throughout the world, with 67% held in our subsidiaries outside the United States at June 30, 2014 . Cash and cash equivalents totaled $3,255 million at June 30, 2014 , representing an increase of $3 million from the March 31, 2014 balance of $3,252 million . During the first quarter of fiscal 2015 , there was a $1 million favorable translation effect from foreign currency exchange rates on cash held outside the United States in currencies other than the U.S. dollar.
Although 67% of our cash and cash equivalents is held by foreign subsidiaries, we currently neither intend nor expect a need to repatriate these funds to the United States in the foreseeable future. We expect existing domestic cash, cash equivalents and cash flows from operations to be sufficient to fund our domestic operating activities and our investing and financing activities, including, among other things, the payment of regular quarterly dividends, compliance with our debt repayment schedules, repurchases of our common stock and the funding for capital expenditures, for at least the next 12 months and for the foreseeable future thereafter. In addition, we expect existing foreign cash, cash equivalents and cash flows from foreign operations to be sufficient to fund our foreign operating activities and investing activities, including, among other things, the funding for capital expenditures, acquisitions and research and development, for at least the next 12 months and for the foreseeable future thereafter.

Sources and Uses of Cash
Under our subscription and maintenance agreements, customers generally make installment payments over the term of the agreement, often with at least one payment due at contract execution, for the right to use our software products and receive product support, software fixes and new products when available. The timing and actual amounts of cash received from committed customer installment payments under any specific agreement can be affected by several factors, including the time value of money and the customer’s credit rating. Often, the amount received is the result of direct negotiations with the customer when establishing pricing and payment terms. In certain instances, the customer negotiates a price for a single up-front installment payment and seeks its own internal or external financing sources. In other instances, we may assist the customer by arranging financing on the customer’s behalf through a third-party financial institution. Alternatively, we may decide to transfer our rights to the future committed installment payments due under the license agreement to a third-party financial institution in exchange for a cash payment. Once transferred, the future committed installments are payable by the customer to the third-party financial institution. Whether the future committed installments have been financed directly by the customer with our assistance or by the transfer of our rights to future committed installments to a third party, these financing agreements may contain limited recourse provisions with respect to our continued performance under the license agreements. Based on our historical experience, we believe that any liability that we may incur as a result of these limited recourse provisions will be immaterial.
Amounts billed or collected as a result of a single installment for the entire contract value, or a substantial portion of the contract value, rather than being invoiced and collected over the life of the license agreement, are reflected in the liability section of our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as “Deferred revenue (billed or collected).” Amounts received from either a customer or a third-party financial institution that are attributable to later years of a license agreement have a positive impact on billings and cash provided by operating activities in the current period. Accordingly, to the extent these collections are attributable to the later years of a license agreement, billings and cash provided by operating activities during the license’s later years will be lower than if the payments were received over the license term. We are unable to predict with certainty the amount of cash to be collected from single installments for the entire contract value, or a substantial portion of the contract value, under new or renewed license agreements to be executed in future periods.
For the first quarter of fiscal 2015 , gross receipts related to single installments for the entire contract value, or a substantial portion of the contract value, were $68 million , of which $8 million was billed in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014. For the first quarter of fiscal 2014 , gross receipts related to single installments for the entire contract value, or a substantial portion of the contract value, were $53 million , of which $21 million was billed in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2013.
In any quarter, we may receive payments in advance of the contractually committed date on which the payments were otherwise due. In limited circumstances, we may offer discounts to customers to ensure payment in the current period of invoices that have been billed, but might not otherwise be paid until a subsequent period because of payment terms. Historically, any such discounts have not been material.
Amounts due from customers from our subscription licenses are offset by deferred revenue related to these license agreements, leaving no or minimal net carrying value on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets for those amounts. The fair value of these amounts may exceed or be less than this carrying value but cannot be practically assessed since there is no existing market for a pool of customer receivables with contractual commitments similar to those owned by us. The actual fair value may not be known until these amounts are sold, securitized or collected. Although these customer license agreements commit the customer to payment under a fixed schedule, to the extent amounts are not yet due and payable by the customer, the agreements are considered executory in nature due to our ongoing commitment to provide maintenance and unspecified future software products as part of the agreement terms.
We can estimate the total amounts to be billed from committed contracts, referred to as our “billings backlog,” and the total amount to be recognized as revenue from committed contracts, referred to as our “revenue backlog.” The aggregate amounts of our billings backlog and trade receivables already reflected in our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets represent the amounts we expect to collect in the future from committed contracts.

The increase in billings backlog at June 30, 2014 compared with June 30, 2013 was primarily a result of a favorable effect of foreign exchange. Billings backlog at June 30, 2014 was generally consistent with the billings backlog amount at March 31, 2014 .
The increase in expected future cash collections at June 30, 2014 compared with June 30, 2013 was primarily driven by an increase in billings backlog, as described above. The decrease in expected future cash collections at June 30, 2014 compared with March 31, 2014 was primarily driven by a decrease in trade accounts receivable.
Total revenue backlog at June 30, 2014 was generally consistent with the total revenue backlog at June 30, 2013 . Excluding the favorable effect of foreign exchange, total revenue backlog would have decreased 1% at June 30, 2014. Total revenue backlog at June 30, 2014 decreased compared with March 31, 2014, as a result of a typical decrease in first quarter bookings compared with fourth quarter bookings.
Revenue to be recognized in the next 12 months increased by 1% at June 30, 2014 compared with June 30, 2013 . Excluding the favorable effect of foreign exchange, revenue to be recognized in the next 12 months would have decreased slightly.
Revenue to be recognized in the next 12 months decreased by 3% at June 30, 2014 compared with March 31, 2014 . This decrease was a result of the factors described above.
We expect the current portion of revenue backlog to show improvement by the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015, excluding the effect of foreign exchange.
Generally, we believe that a change in the current portion of revenue backlog on a year-over-year basis is an indicator of future subscription and maintenance revenue performance due to the high percentage of our revenue that is recognized from license agreements that are already committed and being recognized ratably.

For the first quarter of fiscal 2015 , amount includes $30 million of payments associated with the Fiscal 2014 Plan, interest, prior period restructuring plans and miscellaneous receipts and disbursements. For the first quarter of fiscal 2014 , amount includes $20 million of payments associated with the Fiscal 2014 Plan, interest, prior period restructuring plans, and miscellaneous receipts and disbursements.
First  Quarter Comparison Fiscal 2015 Versus Fiscal 2014
Operating Activities:
Net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations for the first quarter of fiscal 2015 was $166 million , representing an increase of $163 million compared with the first quarter of fiscal 2014 . Net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations was favorably affected by a decrease in income tax payments of $165 million and a decrease in vendor disbursements and payroll of $45 million . These favorable effects were partially offset by a decrease in cash collections of $44 million and an increase in payments associated with the Fiscal 2014 Plan of $10 million.
Product development and enhancements expenses are expected to increase in future periods compared with the year-ago period as the amount of capitalized software development costs decreases (see “Amortization of Capitalized Software Costs” above). This resulted in additional operating cash outflows for the first quarter of fiscal 2015 and we expect that this will continue to have an unfavorable effect on operating cash flows for the remainder of fiscal 2015.
Investing Activities:
Net cash used in investing activities from continuing operations for the first quarter of fiscal 2015 was $32 million compared with net cash provided by investing activities from continuing operations of $24 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2014 . The change in net investing activities was primarily due to the maturities of short-term investments during the first quarter of fiscal 2014 of $184 million, offset by a decrease in cash paid for acquisitions and purchased software of $111 million and a decrease in capitalized software development costs of $25 million. The year-over-year change in our investment amounts is a result of a change in the allocation of our investment portfolio, which reduced our investments in instruments with maturities greater than 90 days.
Financing Activities:
Net cash used in financing activities from continuing operations for the first quarter of fiscal 2015 was $140 million compared with $138 million for the first quarter of fiscal 2014 . The increase in net cash used in financing activities was primarily due to the decrease in proceeds from the exercise of common stock options of $16 million, offset by an increase in net borrowings from our notional pooling arrangement of $9 million and a decrease in dividends paid of $3 million.

Other Indebtedness
We have available an unsecured and uncommitted multi-currency line of credit to meet short-term working capital needs for our subsidiaries operating outside the United States. We use guarantees and letters of credit issued by financial institutions to guarantee performance on certain contracts. At both June 30, 2014 and March 31, 2014 , $49 million of this line of credit was pledged in support of bank guarantees and other local credit lines. At June 30, 2014 , none of these arrangements were drawn down by third parties. At March 31, 2014 , less than $1 million of these arrangements were drawn down by third parties.
We use a notional pooling arrangement with an international bank to help manage global liquidity. Under this pooling arrangement, we and our participating subsidiaries may maintain either cash deposit or borrowing positions through local currency accounts with the bank, so long as the aggregate position of the global pool is a notionally calculated net cash deposit. Because it maintains a security interest in the cash deposits and has the right to offset the cash deposits against the borrowings, the bank provides us and our participating subsidiaries favorable interest terms on both. The activity under this cash pooling arrangement for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013 was as follows:

Effect of Exchange Rate Changes
There was a $1 million favorable impact to our cash balances in the first quarter of fiscal 2015 predominantly due to the weakening of the U.S. dollar against the British pound sterling (3%), the Brazilian real (3%), Israeli shekel (2%), the Australian dollar (2%) and the Japanese yen (2%), offset by the strengthening of the U.S. dollar against the Norwegian krone (2%) and the euro (1%).
There was a $29 million unfavorable impact to our cash balances in the first quarter of fiscal 2014 predominantly due to the strengthening of the U.S. dollar against the Australian dollar (12%), the Brazilian real (9%) and the Japanese yen (5%), offset by the weakening of the U.S. dollar against the euro (1%).

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND BUSINESS PRACTICES
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue and expenses. We base our estimates on historical experience and various other assumptions that we believe are reasonable under the circumstances. Our estimates form the basis for making judgments about amounts and timing of revenue and expenses, the carrying values of assets and the recorded amounts of liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates and the estimates may change if the underlying conditions or assumptions change. Information with respect to our critical accounting policies that we believe could have the most significant effect on our reported results or require subjective or complex judgments by management is contained in our 2014 Form 10-K under Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. At June 30, 2014 , there was no material change to this information.
New Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09 (ASU 2014-09), Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) , which requires an entity to recognize the amount of revenue to which it expects to be entitled for the transfer of promised goods or services to customers. ASU 2014-09 will replace most existing revenue recognition guidance in U.S. GAAP when it becomes effective. The new standard is effective for annual and interim periods in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016. Early application is not permitted. ASU 2014-09 is effective for our first quarter of fiscal year 2018 using either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. We are evaluating the effect that ASU 2014-09 will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. ASU 2014-09 is expected to have a significant impact on our revenue recognition policies and disclosures. We have not yet selected a transition method nor have we determined the effect of the standard on our ongoing financial reporting.

Item 3: QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
We are exposed to a variety of risks, including foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, interest rate changes and changes in the market value of our investments. In the normal course of business, we employ established policies and procedures to manage these risks including the use of derivative instruments. There have been no material changes in our financial risk management strategy or our portfolio management strategy, which is described in our 2014 Form 10-K, subsequent to March 31, 2014 .

Item 4: CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, the Company has evaluated the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (Exchange Act). Based on that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer have concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures are effective as of the end of the period covered by this quarterly report.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, as that term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, that occurred during the period covered by this quarterly report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
Refer to Note I, “Commitments and Contingencies,” in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for information regarding certain legal proceedings, the contents of which are herein incorporated by reference.

Item 1A. RISK FACTORS
Current and potential stockholders should consider carefully the risk factors described in more detail in our 2014 Form 10-K. We believe that as of June 30, 2014 , there has been no material change to this information. Any of these factors, or others, many of which are beyond our control, could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, operating results, cash flow and stock price.

On May 14, 2014, our Board of Directors approved a stock repurchase program that authorizes us to acquire up to $1 billion of our common stock. We expect to complete the program in approximately three years. We expect to fund the program with available cash on hand and repurchase shares on the open market, through solicited or unsolicited privately negotiated transactions or otherwise from time to time based on market conditions and other factors.
During the first quarter of fiscal 2015 , we repurchased 1.7 million shares of our common stock for $50 million . At June 30, 2014 , we remained authorized to purchase $950 million of our common stock under the current stock repurchase program.

Re: Employment Letter – Lauren P. Flaherty
Dear Lauren:
This is your Employment Letter (the “ Letter ”) with CA, Inc. , a Delaware corporation (the “ Company ”). It sets forth the terms of your employment with the Company and your service to the Company and its affiliates from time to time (together, the “ Group ”).
1.
Your Position, Performance and Other Activities
(a)      Position . You will be employed in the position of Executive Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer of the Company.
(b)      Authority, Responsibilities and Reporting . You will report directly to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. Your duties, responsibilities and authority shall be such duties, responsibilities and authority as are consistent with the above job titles and such other duties, responsibilities and authority as the Chief Executive Officer shall from time to time specify commensurate with your position.
(c)      Performance . During your employment, you will (a) serve the Group faithfully, diligently and to the best of the your ability under the direction of the Chief Executive Officer, (b) devote your full working time and best efforts, attention and energy to the performance of your duties to the Group and (c) not do anything inconsistent with your duties to the Group. During your employment, (i) prior to your permanent relocation to the New York, NY metropolitan area as set forth in Section 4(d) of this Letter, which is scheduled to occur within 90 days of your Start Date, it is the intention that you will have your office and work primarily in California, although it is expected that you will travel to CA offices in New York and other locations as needed; and (ii) following your permanent relocation to the New York, NY metropolitan area, your principal place of performance of your responsibilities under this Letter will be Islandia, New York or New York, New York.

However, you may (1) serve on corporate, civic or charitable boards, (2) manage personal investments, or (3) deliver lectures, or fulfill speaking engagements or teach at educational institutions, so long as (A) these activities do not interfere with your performance of your responsibilities under this Letter and



(B) any service on a corporate, civic, charitable board or any other outside organization must be approved by the Company in advance and in writing in accordance with the Company’s written policies as in effect from time to time.
2.
Term of Your Employment

References in this Letter to “ your employment ” are to your employment under this Letter.
(b)      You and the Company agree that your employment with the Company is “at-will” which means that either you or the Company may terminate your employment at any time, for any reason whatsoever, with or without Cause or Good Reason (as such terms are defined herein), in accordance with the terms of this Letter.

1.
Your salary, all applicable benefits and vesting of equity will continue through June 30, 2014 (the “Termination Date”); until the Termination Date, you will be expected to assist with transition issues, on an “as needed basis,” at the reasonable request of the Chief Human Resources Officer.

Appendix A

Non-Competition Agreement

1.
I acknowledge that in my capacity as a senior executive of the Releasee I was privy to a wide range of confidential information. Some examples of the types of confidential information that I learned in my role include (but are not limited to): The Releasee's short-term and long-term business and technology strategy and overall strategic plan; the strategies the Releasee utilized and the strategies the Releasee was developing to compete effectively in the marketplace; information about the Releasee's growth strategy including entities it was considering acquiring or developing strategic partnerships with; information about the Releasee's sales strategies and pricing plans; information concerning existing or prospective customers; and, information about the Releasee's product roadmap.

2.
I agree that the Releasee would be severely damaged if I disclosed confidential information that I learned during my tenure to a competitor or if I accepted a position with a competitor that involved sales or sales-related activities or the development or oversight of corporate or technology strategy. I further acknowledge that it would be impossible for me to work in a sales or strategic position with the Releasee's competitors without inevitably using and/or disclosing confidential information that I learned in my senior executive role with the Releasee. Therefore, in furtherance of my duty of loyalty to the Releasee and to prevent this harm, I promise that until June 15, 2015, I will not:

a.
accept or act in an executive or senior position (as an owner, employee, consultant or in any other capacity) involving sales or sales-related activities, software development or the development or oversight of corporate or technology strategy with any of the following companies or their affiliates, subsidiaries or successors in interest (the “Restricted” Company or Companies): Gartner, BMC, Compuware, HP, EMC, Oracle, VMWare, ServiceNow, Solar Winds, AppDynamics or New Relic. Notwithstanding the above, I understand that after June 15, 2014, the Releasee will permit me to accept employment with a division of a Restricted Company only if (1) such division does not license or lease products or provide services that are competitive with products that are licensed or leased or services that are provided by the Releasee; and, (2) my employment at the Restricted Company will not involve or influence the strategy, software development or sales of any division of a Restricted Company that is competitive with the business of the Releasee. I understand and agree that before accepting such position with a division of a Restricted Company, I must request and receive the written approval of the Releasee’s Chief Human Resources Officer, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld;





b.
solicit, call on, service or induce others to solicit, call on or service any "Customer" for the purpose of inducing it to license or lease a product or purchase a service that competes with a product or service offered by the Releasee. A "Customer," for purposes of this Agreement, is any person or business entity that licensed or leased a Releasee product or purchased a service within the 18 months preceding my Termination Date;

c.
solicit, call on, or induce others to solicit or call on, any "Prospective Customer" for the purpose of inducing it to license or lease a product or purchase a service which competes with a product or service offered by the Releasee. A "Prospective Customer," for purposes of this Agreement, is any person or business entity that I solicited (whether directly or through another employee or agent of the Releasee at my direction) on behalf of the Releasee anytime within the 9 months preceding my Termination Date; and,

d.
solicit or encourage or endeavor to cause, directly or indirectly, any employee or contractor of the Releasee to leave his or her employment or placement with the Releasee, or breach his or her Confidentiality Agreement or employment or placement agreement with the Releasee.

I agree that the foregoing restrictions are severable, reasonable and necessary. I acknowledge that I can harm the Releasee from any geographic location by providing my services or acquired knowledge of the Releasee's confidential information to any of the Restricted Companies.

In exchange for my compliance with the promises set forth in this Non-Competition Agreement, the Releasee has agreed to pay me the amounts set-out in the letter to me, dated June16, 2014, and in my employment agreement, dated April 26, 2011.

3.
This Non-Competition Agreement shall be governed by and, for all purposes, construed in accordance with the laws of Ontario, Canada.

4.
This Non-Competition Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and may be enforced by Releasee, its successors and assigns. I understand and agree that this Non-Competition Agreement is personal to me and I may not assign it.

5.
If the Releasee is successful in a suit or proceeding to enforce any of the terms of this Non-Competition Agreement, I will pay the Releasee’s costs of bringing such suit or proceeding, including its reasonable attorney’s fees and litigation expenses (including expert witness and deposition expenses).

The Company hereby grants to the Participant the number of shares of Restricted Stock (the "Restricted Stock") set forth above on the grant date set forth above (the "Grant Date") subject to the vesting Restriction noted in Section 2 below and such other the terms outlined below.
2.
Vesting of Restricted Shares. The Restricted Stock will vest with respect to 34% of the underlying shares of Restricted Stock on the first anniversary of the Grant Date and with respect to an additional 33% of the underlying shares of Restricted Stock on each of the second and third anniversaries of the Grant Date; provided that the Company achieves its Qualified Performance Measure at the end of the Performance Cycle and the Committee has certified the achievement of the Qualified Performance Measure in accordance with the Plan. Except as otherwise provided in Section 6 of this Agreement, unvested shares of Restricted Stock shall be forfeited by the Participant (i) upon the Participant's Termination of Employment, as defined in the Plan, for any reason other than death or Termination of Employment due to Disability, as defined in the Plan and (ii) if the Qualified Performance Measure established by the Committee is not achieved at the end of the Performance Cycle.
3.
Timing of Grant Acceptance. Participant must electronically accept his/her grant of Restricted Stock award within 90 days from the Grant Date (the “Grant Acceptance Date”) or he/she will forfeit this Restricted Stock award. A Participant who forfeits his/her Restricted Stock award for failure to accept the award by the Grant Acceptance Date has no right of ownership or other rights as stockholder under this Restricted Stock award and may not be eligible for future Restricted Stock awards or other equity awards granted by the Company.

The amount of the gain calculated pursuant to this Section 6 shall not take into account any taxes paid by or withheld from the Participant in respect of the Affected Restricted Stock.

Appendix A

1.
Prohibited Activities. The Participant recognizes that the Company is engaged in a highly competitive business and that its customer, employee, licensee, supplier and financial relationships are of a highly sensitive nature. As a reasonable means to protect the Company's Confidential Information (as defined in the subclause (a) below), investment, relationships, and goodwill, and in consideration for this Restricted Stock grant, the Participant agrees that, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Participant will not, either during his or her employment or for a period of 12 months following the termination of his or her employment (or such longer period specified below) for any reason engage in any of the following " Prohibited Activities ":

(a)
Engage in any business activity in a Restricted Area that competes with the business activities of the Company and its corporate affiliates about which Participant either had (i) a job responsibility to promote, or (ii) access to Confidential Information. "Restricted Area" for purposes of this Agreement, means a geographic area that the Participant served or covered on behalf of the Company at any time within the 18 months preceding the end of his or her employment with the Company. " Confidential Information, " for the purposes of this Agreement, means information, including information that is conceived or developed by the Participant that is not generally known to the public and that is used by the Company in connection with its business. By way of example, the term "Confidential Information" would include: trade secrets; processes; formulas; research data; program documentation; algorithms; source codes; object codes; know-how; improvements; inventions; techniques; training materials and methods; product information; corporate strategy; sales forecast and pipeline information; research and development; plans or strategies for marketing and pricing; and information concerning existing or potential customers, partners, or vendors. The Participant understands that this list is not all-inclusive and merely serves as examples of the types of information that falls within the definition of Confidential Information.

(b)
Solicit, call on, service or induce others to solicit, call on or service any "Customer" for the purpose of inducing it to license or lease a product or provide it with services that compete with a product or service offered by the Company. A "Customer," for purposes of this Agreement, means any person or business entity that licensed or leased a Company product or obtained Company services within the 18 months preceding the end of the Participant's employment with the Company and that the Participant had solicited, called on, or served on the Company's behalf anytime within that 18-month time period.

(c)
Solicit, call on, or induce others to solicit or call on, any "Prospective Customer" for the purpose of inducing it to license or lease a product or provide it with services which compete with a product or service offered by the Company. A "Prospective Customer," for purposes of this Agreement, is any person or business entity that the Participant solicited or called on (whether directly or through another Company agent at the Participant's direction) on behalf of the Company anytime within the 12 months preceding the end of the Participant's employment with the Company.

(d)
Directly or indirectly through others, hire any employee or contractor of the Company, or solicit or induce, or attempt to solicit or induce, any Company employee or contractor to leave the Company for any reason.





(e)
For any period following the termination of the Participant's employment, violate a non-competition, non-solicitation or non-disclosure covenant or agreement between the Participant and the Company or any Related Company (including, without limitation, the Employment and Confidentiality Agreement signed at or around the time of the Participant's hire).

Different restrictions apply if, at or prior to termination, the Participant was or had been a programmer, software engineer, analyst, support technician, quality assurance technician, technical documentation writer and/or a manager in a research and development capacity. If so, then the Participant's obligations under this Paragraph 1 shall be satisfied if the Participant does not, for one year following Termination of Employment for any reason, work on any program or product which may be competitive with any program or product of the Company with which the Participant was involved in a research and development or support capacity anytime within the 18 months preceding the end of the Participant's employment with the Company.

2.
Tolling of Covenants in the Event of Breach. In the event the Participant engages in any of the Prohibited Activities, the time period of the violated covenant(s) shall be tolled throughout the duration of any violation and shall continue until the Participant has complied with such covenant(s) for a period of 12 consecutive full months.

3.
Injunction. The Participant acknowledges that, by virtue of the Participant's employment with the Company, the Participant will have access to Confidential Information of the Company, the disclosure of which will irreparably harm the Company. The Participant further acknowledges that the Company will suffer irreparable harm if the Participant breaches any of the Participant's obligations under this Agreement. Therefore, the Participant agrees that the Company will be entitled, in addition to its other rights, to enforce the Participant's obligations through an injunction or decree of specific performance from a court having proper jurisdiction. Any claims the Participant may assert against the Company shall not constitute a defense in any injunction action brought by the Company to force the Participant to keep the promises the Participant made in this Agreement.

4.
Authorization to Modify Restrictions. The Participant agrees that the restrictions contained in this Agreement are reasonable. However, if any court having proper jurisdiction holds a particular restriction to be unreasonable, that restriction shall be modified only to the extent necessary in the court's opinion to make it reasonable and the remaining provisions of this Agreement including without limitation Appendix A shall nonetheless remain in full force and effect. The other provisions of this Agreement are likewise severable.

5.
General.

(a)
The Participant understands and agrees that, if the Company is successful in a suit or proceeding to enforce any of the terms of this Agreement, the Participant will pay the Company's costs of bringing such suit or proceeding, including its reasonable attorney's fees and litigation expenses (including expert witness and deposition expenses).

(b)
This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and may be enforced by the Company, its successors and assigns. This Agreement is personal to the Participant and the Participant may not assign it.

(c)
The Company’s rights under this Agreement shall be in addition to any rights it may have under any other Agreement with Participant.





(d)
Any failure to enforce the terms of this Agreement with any other employee of the Company shall not be deemed a waiver by the Company to enforce its rights under this Agreement. Further, any waiver by the Company of any breach by the Participant of any provision of this Agreement, shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach hereof.

the Plan is established voluntarily by the Company, is discretionary in nature and may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by the Company at any time, unless otherwise provided in the Plan and this Agreement;

(c)
all decisions with respect to future Restricted Stock Units, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company;

in consideration of the grant of the Restricted Stock Units, no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall arise from termination of the Restricted Stock Units or diminution in value of the Restricted Stock Units or shares acquired through vesting of the Restricted Stock Units resulting from termination of the Participant’s employment by the Company or the Employer, and the Participant irrevocably releases the Company and the Employer from any




such claim that may arise; if, notwithstanding the foregoing, any such claim is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen, then, by signing this Agreement, the Participant will be deemed irrevocably to have waived his or her entitlement to pursue such claim; and

Appendix A

1.
Prohibited Activities. The Participant recognizes that the Company is engaged in a highly competitive business and that its customer, employee, licensee, supplier and financial relationships are of a highly sensitive nature. As a reasonable means to protect the Company’s Confidential Information (as defined in the subclause (a) below), investment, relationships, and goodwill, and in consideration for this Restricted Stock Unit grant, the Participant agrees that, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Participant will not, either during his or her employment or for a period of 12 months following the termination of his or her employment (or such longer period specified below) for any reason engage in any of the following “ Prohibited Activities ”:

(a)
Engage in any business activity in a Restricted Area that competes with the business activities of the Company and its corporate affiliates about which Participant either had (i) a job responsibility to promote, or (ii) access to Confidential Information. “Restricted Area” for purposes of this Agreement, means a geographic area that the Participant served or covered on behalf of the Company at any time within the 18 months preceding the end of his or her employment with the Company. “ Confidential Information, ” for the purposes of this Agreement, means information, including information that is conceived or developed by the Participant that is not generally known to the public and that is used by the Company in connection with its business. By way of example, the term “Confidential Information” would include: trade secrets; processes; formulas; research data; program documentation; algorithms; source codes; object codes; know-how; improvements; inventions; techniques; training materials and methods; product information; corporate strategy; sales forecast and pipeline information; research and development; plans or strategies for marketing and pricing; and information concerning existing or potential customers, partners, or vendors. The Participant understands that this list is not all-inclusive and merely serves as examples of the types of information that falls within the definition of Confidential Information.

(b)
Solicit, call on, service or induce others to solicit, call on or service any “Customer” for the purpose of inducing it to license or lease a product or provide it with services that compete with a product or service offered by the Company. A “Customer,” for purposes of this Agreement, means any person or business entity that licensed or leased a Company product or obtained Company services within the 18 months preceding the end of the Participant’s employment with the Company and that the Participant had solicited, called on, or served on the Company’s behalf anytime within that 18-month time period.

(c)
Solicit, call on, or induce others to solicit or call on, any “Prospective Customer” for the purpose of inducing it to license or lease a product or provide it with services which compete with a product or service offered by the Company. A “Prospective Customer,” for purposes of this Agreement, is any person or business entity that the Participant solicited or called on (whether directly or through another Company agent at the Participant’s direction) on behalf of the Company anytime within the 12 months preceding the end of the Participant’s employment with the Company.

(d)
Directly or indirectly through others, hire any employee or contractor of the Company, or solicit or induce, or attempt to solicit or induce, any Company employee or contractor to leave the Company for any reason.





(e)
For any period following the termination of the Participant’s employment, violate a non-competition, non-solicitation or non-disclosure covenant or agreement between the Participant and the Company or any Related Company (including, without limitation, the Employment and Confidentiality Agreement signed at or around the time of the Participant’s hire).

Different restrictions apply if, at or prior to termination, the Participant was or had been a programmer, software engineer, analyst, support technician, quality assurance technician, technical documentation writer and/or a manager in a research and development capacity. If so, then the Participant’s obligations under this Paragraph 1 shall be satisfied if the Participant does not, for one year following Termination of Employment for any reason, work on any program or product which may be competitive with any program or product of the Company with which the Participant was involved in a research and development or support capacity anytime within the 18 months preceding the end of the Participant’s employment with the Company.


2.
Tolling of Covenants in the Event of Breach. In the event the Participant engages in any of the Prohibited Activities, the time period of the violated covenant(s) shall be tolled throughout the duration of any violation and shall continue until the Participant has complied with such covenant(s) for a period of 12 consecutive full months.

3.
Injunction. The Participant acknowledges that, by virtue of the Participant’s employment with the Company, the Participant will have access to Confidential Information of the Company, the disclosure of which will irreparably harm the Company. The Participant further acknowledges that the Company will suffer irreparable harm if the Participant breaches any of the Participant’s obligations under this Agreement. Therefore, the Participant agrees that the Company will be entitled, in addition to its other rights, to enforce the Participant’s obligations through an injunction or decree of specific performance from a court having proper jurisdiction. Any claims the Participant may assert against the Company shall not constitute a defense in any injunction action brought by the Company to force the Participant to keep the promises the Participant made in this Agreement.

4.
Authorization to Modify Restrictions. The Participant agrees that the restrictions contained in this Agreement are reasonable. However, if any court having proper jurisdiction holds a particular restriction to be unreasonable, that restriction shall be modified only to the extent necessary in the court’s opinion to make it reasonable and the remaining provisions of this Agreement including without limitation Appendix A shall nonetheless remain in full force and effect. The other provisions of this Agreement are likewise severable.
    
5.
General.

(a)
The Participant understands and agrees that, if the Company is successful in a suit or proceeding to enforce any of the terms of this Agreement, the Participant will pay the Company’s costs of bringing such suit or proceeding, including its reasonable attorney’s fees and litigation expenses (including expert witness and deposition expenses).

(b)
This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and may be enforced by the Company, its successors and assigns. This Agreement is personal to the Participant and the Participant may not assign it.





(c)
The Company’s rights under this Agreement shall be in addition to any rights it may have under any other Agreement with Participant.

(d)
Any failure to enforce the terms of this Agreement with any other employee of the Company shall not be deemed a waiver by the Company to enforce its rights under this Agreement. Further, any waiver by the Company of any breach by the Participant of any provision of this Agreement, shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach hereof.

1.
Grant of Restricted Shares . The Company hereby grants to the Participant the number of shares of Restricted Stock (the "Restricted Stock") set forth above on the grant date set forth above (the "Grant Date") subject to the terms outlined below.

2.
Vesting of Restricted Shares. The Restricted Stock will vest with respect to 34% of the underlying shares of Restricted Stock on the first anniversary of the Grant Date and with respect to an additional 33% of the underlying shares of Restricted Stock on each of the second and third anniversaries of the Grant Date. Shares of Restricted Stock shall fully vest upon the Participant's death or Termination of Employment due to Disability. Except as otherwise provided in Section 6 of this Agreement, unvested shares of Restricted Stock shall be forfeited by the Participant upon the Participant's Termination of Employment, as defined in the Plan, for any reason other than death or Termination of Employment due to Disability, as defined in the Plan.

3.
Timing of Grant Acceptance. Participant must electronically accept his/her grant of Restricted Stock award within 90 days from the Grant Date (the “Grant Acceptance Date”) or he/she will forfeit this Restricted Stock award. A Participant who forfeits his/her Restricted Stock award for failure to accept the award by the Grant Acceptance Date has no right of ownership or other rights as stockholder under this Restricted Stock award and may not be eligible for future Restricted Stock awards or other equity awards granted by the Company.

4.
Delivery of Restricted Stock. Restricted Stock award shall be registered in the name of the Participant and the Restricted Stock will be held for the Participant by the Company until vesting. Upon grant of the shares of Restricted Stock, the Participant shall thereupon have all the rights of a stockholder with respect to such shares, including the right to vote and receive dividends or other distributions made or paid with respect to such shares, except that such shares shall be subject to the vesting and forfeiture provisions of Section 2 above. As promptly as practicable after the





Restricted Stock has vested in accordance with Section 2, the Company shall deliver to the Participant (or in the event of the Participant's death, to the Participant’s estate or any person who acquires the Participant’s interest in the Restricted Stock by bequest or inheritance) the shares of the Common Stock of the Company.

5.
Restrictions on Transfer. Shares of Restricted Stock that are included in this award may not be transferred by the Participant prior to vesting.

6.
Forfeiture and Recovery of Restricted Shares. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or the Plan to the contrary, the Restricted Stock may be forfeited without consideration if the Participant, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, engages in any Prohibited Activities (as defined in Appendix A ). If the Participant engages in any Prohibited Activities, the Participant shall, at the sole discretion of the Committee, return any shares of Common Stock or forfeit any gain realized in respect of Restricted Stock that vested within 12 months prior to the Participant's Termination of Employment (the "Affected Restricted Stock"). The gain pursuant to this Section 6 shall be deemed to be an amount equal to the Fair Market Value, on the applicable vesting date, of the shares of Common Stock deemed delivered to the Participant in respect of the Affected Restricted Stock (including any dividends and distributions thereon and any shares withheld to cover any portion of the tax withholding obligations). It will be at the Company's discretion as to whether shares of Common Stock or cash equal to the gain realized in respect of the Affected Restricted Stock shall be returned to the Company and such return or reimbursement shall be made by the Participant immediately after demand by the Company, but not later than ten days following such demand. The amount of the gain calculated pursuant to this Section 6 shall not take into account any taxes paid by or withheld from the Participant in respect of the Affected Restricted Stock.

The foregoing provision will be applied in compliance with applicable laws, including, without limitation, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, and the Participant will be subject to such forfeiture and recovery and reimbursement policies that the Company or any of its Related Companies may establish for any reason from time to time.

7.
Tax Withholding. As a condition to the delivery of any shares pursuant to the vesting of the Restricted Stock, the Participant is required to pay tax withholding obligations that arise in connection with the vesting of the Restricted Stock. The Company shall satisfy the tax withholding obligations arising in connection with release of restrictions on Shares of Restricted Stock held by Participant (where withholding is required at the time of release of restrictions on Shares of Restricted Stock or as may be determined by the Company from time to time) by withholding shares of Common Stock that would otherwise be available for delivery upon the vesting of this award having a Fair Market Value on the date of the release equal to the minimum statutory withholding obligation or such other withholding obligation required by applicable law or require a Participant satisfy its withholding obligation in some other form as determined Company from time to time and in accordance with applicable law.

8.
Changes In Stock. The Restricted Stock is subject to the adjustment provisions set forth in Sections 4.11, 5.3 and 5.4 of the Plan.

9.
No Guarantee of Employment or Service. This award will not obligate the Company or any Related Company to retain the Participant in its employ or service for any period.





10.
Governing Law; Severability; Choice of Law. This Agreement will be governed by the internal substantive laws, and not the choice of law rules, of the State of New York and construed accordingly, to the extent not superseded by applicable federal law. If any provision of the Agreement is held unlawful or otherwise invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in part, the unlawfulness, invalidity or unenforceability will not affect any other provision of this Agreement or part thereof, each of which will remain in full force and effect. Any action related to this Agreement shall be brought exclusively in the federal or state courts of the State of New York, County of Suffolk. The Participant will accept service of process as provided under New York law or by registered mail, return receipt requested, and waive any objection based upon forum non conveniens or as to personal jurisdiction over the Participant in federal or state courts of the State of New York, County of Suffolk.

1.
Grant of Option . The Company hereby grants to the Optionee an option (the "Option") to purchase the number of shares of Common Stock set forth above at an exercise price per share set forth above which is equal to the Fair Market Value of such shares on the date the Option is granted (the "Grant Date"). The Option is not an "incentive stock option" within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code.

2.
Vesting of Option. The Option will vest with respect to 34% of the underlying shares of Common Stock on the first anniversary of the Grant Date and with respect to an additional 33% of the underlying shares of Common Stock on each of the second and third anniversaries of the Grant Date. Except as provided in Section 9 of this Agreement, the Option will expire and will not be exercisable after ten years from Grant Date (the "Expiration Date").

4.
Exercise of Option . To the extent that the Option is exercisable, the Optionee may exercise the Option by delivering to the Company or its agent a properly executed exercise notice on a form approved by the Committee. The Company will not permit the exercise of the Option if the Company



determines, in its sole and absolute discretion, that issuance of shares underlying the Option could violate any law or regulation.

In the event of the Optionee's death, the Option may be exercised by the executor or administrator of a deceased Optionee's estate, or by the person or persons to whom the Option has been transferred by the Optionee's will or the applicable laws of descent and distribution, provided that the Company will be under no obligation to deliver shares underlying the Option unless and until the Company is satisfied that the person exercising the Option is the duly appointed executor or administrator of the deceased Optionee or the person to whom the Option has been transferred by the Optionee's will or by the applicable laws of descent and distribution.

5.
Payment of Exercise Price. Payment of the exercise price of the Option may be made in cash or by certified check, bank draft, wire transfer or postal or express money order or any other form of consideration approved by the Committee. Alternatively, payment of the exercise price may be made by (a) delivering to the Company, or its agent, a properly executed exercise notice, together with irrevocable instructions to a broker to deliver promptly to the Company the amount of sale proceeds with respect to the portion of the shares to be acquired upon exercise having a Fair Market Value on the date of exercise equal to the sum of the applicable portion of the exercise price being so paid and appropriate tax withholding, (b) tendering (actually or by attestation) to the Company previously acquired Shares that have been held by the Optionee for at least six months having a Fair Market Value on the date prior to the date of exercise equal to the applicable portion of the Exercise Price being paid and appropriate tax witholding, or (c) any combination of the foregoing. Payment of the exercise price of the Option must be made in full for all shares for which the Option is exercised at the time of such exercise, and no shares will be delivered until such payment is made. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a form of payment will not be available if the Company determines, in its sole and absolute discretion, that such form of payment could violate any law or regulation.

Death or Termination of Employment Due to Disability . If the Optionee dies or incurs a Termination of Employment due to Disability while employed by or providing services to the Company, any portion of the Option that has not become exercisable as of the date of the Optionee's death or Termination of Employment due to Disability will become exercisable in full and will remain exercisable (a) in the case of the Optionee's death, by the estate of the deceased Optionee or the person given authority to exercise the Option by the Optionee's will or by operation of law for a period of one year following the Optionee's death, but not later than the expiration date of the Option; and (b) in the case of the Optionee's Termination of Employment or Disability, by the Optionee for a period of one year following the Optionee's Termination of Employment due to Disability, but not later than the Expiration Date.

If the Optionee engages in any of the Prohibited Activities, the Optionee shall, at the sole discretion of the Committee, forfeit any gain realized in respect of any Option that has been exercised within 12 months prior to the Optionee's Termination of Employment (the "Affected Option"), which gain shall be deemed to be an amount equal to aggregate of the difference between the Exercise Price of the Affected Option and the corresponding Fair Market Value (as defined in the Plan), on the applicable exercise date, of the shares of Common Stock deemed delivered to the Optionee (including any shares sold or withheld to cover any portion of the payment of its exercise price and/or tax withholding). The Optionee shall repay such gain to the Company immediately after demand by the Company, but not later than ten days following such demand. The amount of the gain calculated pursuant to this Section 10 shall not take into account any taxes paid by or withheld from the Optionee in connection with the exercise of the Affected Option.




The foregoing provision will be applied in compliance with applicable laws, including without limitation the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, and the Optionee will be subject to such forfeiture and recovery and reimbursement policies that the Company or any of its Related Companies may establish for any reason from time to time.

11.

No Guarantee of Employment or Service. The Option will not obligate the Company or any Related Company to retain the Optionee in its employ or service for any period.

14.
Governing Law; Severability; Choice of Law . This Agreement will be governed by the internal substantive laws, and not the choice of law rules, of the State of New York and construed accordingly, to the extent not superseded by applicable federal law. If any provision of the Agreement is held unlawful or otherwise invalid or unenforceable, in whole or in part, the unlawfulness, invalidity or unenforceability will not affect any other provision of this Agreement or part thereof, each of which will remain in full force and effect. Any action related to this Agreement shall be brought exclusively in the federal or state courts of the State of New York, County of Suffolk. The Optionee will accept service of process as provided under New York law or by registered mail, return receipt requested, and waive any objection based upon forum non conveniens or as to personal jurisdiction over the Optionee in federal or state courts of the State of New York, County of Suffolk.

Appendix A

1.
Prohibited Activities. The Optionee recognizes that the Company is engaged in a highly competitive business and that its customer, employee, licensee, supplier and financial relationships are of a highly sensitive nature. As a reasonable means to protect the Company's Confidential Information (as defined in the subclause (a) below), investment, relationships, and goodwill, and in consideration for the Option grant, the Optionee agrees that, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Optionee will not, either during his or her employment or for a period of 12 months following the termination of his or her employment (or such longer period specified below) for any reason engage in any of the following " Prohibited Activities ":

(a)
Engage in any business activity in a Restricted Area that competes with the business activities of the Company and its corporate affiliates about which Optionee either had (i) a job responsibility to promote, or (ii) access to Confidential Information. "Restricted Area" for purposes of this Agreement, means a geographic area that the Optionee served or covered on behalf of the Company at any time within the 18 months preceding the end of his or her employment with the Company. " Confidential Information, " for the purposes of this Agreement, means information, including information that is conceived or developed by the Optionee that is not generally known to the public and that is used by the Company in connection with its business. By way of example, the term "Confidential Information" would include: trade secrets; processes; formulas; research data; program documentation; algorithms; source codes; object codes; know-how; improvements; inventions; techniques; training materials and methods; product information; corporate strategy; sales forecast and pipeline information; research and development; plans or strategies for marketing and pricing; and information concerning existing or potential customers, partners, or vendors. The Optionee understands that this list is not all-inclusive and merely serves as examples of the types of information that falls within the definition of Confidential Information.

(b)
Solicit, call on, service or induce others to solicit, call on or service any "Customer" for the purpose of inducing it to license or lease a product or provide it with services that compete with a product or service offered by the Company. A "Customer," for purposes of this Agreement, means any person or business entity that licensed or leased a Company product or obtained Company services within the 18 months preceding the end of the Optionee's employment with the Company and that the Optionee had solicited, called on, or served on the Company's behalf anytime within that 18-month time period.

(c)
Solicit, call on, or induce others to solicit or call on, any "Prospective Customer" for the purpose of inducing it to license or lease a product or provide it with services which compete with a product or service offered by the Company. A "Prospective Customer," for purposes of this Agreement, is any person or business entity that the Optionee solicited or called on (whether directly or through another Company agent at the Optionee's direction) on behalf of the Company anytime within the 12 months preceding the end of the Optionee's employment with the Company.

(d)
Directly or indirectly through others, hire any employee or contractor of the Company, or solicit or induce, or attempt to solicit or induce, any Company employee or contractor to leave the Company for any reason.




(e)
For any period following the termination of the Optionee's employment, violate a non-competition, non-solicitation or non-disclosure covenant or agreement between the Optionee and the Company or any Related Company (including, without limitation, the Employment and Confidentiality Agreement signed at or around the time of the Optionee's hire).

Different restrictions apply if, at or prior to termination, the Optionee was or had been a programmer, software engineer, analyst, support technician, quality assurance technician, technical documentation writer and/or a manager in a research and development capacity. If so, then the Optionee's obligations under this Paragraph 1 shall be satisfied if the Optionee does not, for one year following Termination of Employment for any reason, work on any program or product which may be competitive with any program or product of the Company with which the Optionee was involved in a research and development or support capacity anytime within the 18 months preceding the end of the Optionee's employment with the Company.


2.
Tolling of Covenants in the Event of Breach. In the event the Optionee engages in any of the Prohibited Activities, the time period of the violated covenant(s) shall be tolled throughout the duration of any violation and shall continue until the Optionee has complied with such covenant(s) for a period of 12 consecutive full months.

3.
Injunction. The Optionee acknowledges that, by virtue of the Optionee's employment with the Company, the Optionee will have access to Confidential Information of the Company, the disclosure of which will irreparably harm the Company. The Optionee further acknowledges that the Company will suffer irreparable harm if the Optionee breaches any of the Optionee's obligations under this Agreement. Therefore, the Optionee agrees that the Company will be entitled, in addition to its other rights, to enforce the Optionee's obligations through an injunction or decree of specific performance from a court having proper jurisdiction. Any claims the Optionee may assert against the Company shall not constitute a defense in any injunction action brought by the Company to force the Optionee to keep the promises the Optionee made in this Agreement.

4.
Authorization to Modify Restrictions. The Optionee agrees that the restrictions contained in this Agreement are reasonable. However, if any court having proper jurisdiction holds a particular restriction to be unreasonable, that restriction shall be modified only to the extent necessary in the court's opinion to make it reasonable and the remaining provisions of this Agreement including without limitation Appendix A shall nonetheless remain in full force and effect. The other provisions of this Agreement are likewise severable.

5.
General.

(a)
The Optionee understands and agrees that, if the Company is successful in a suit or proceeding to enforce any of the terms of this Agreement, the Optionee will pay the Company's costs of bringing such suit or proceeding, including its reasonable attorney's fees and litigation expenses (including expert witness and deposition expenses).
 
(b)
This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and may be enforced by the Company, its successors and assigns. Except as otherwise permitted by this Agreement, this Agreement is personal to the Optionee and the Optionee may not assign it.




(c)
The Company’s rights under this Agreement shall be in addition to any rights it may have under any other Agreement with Optionee.

(d)
Any failure to enforce the terms of this Agreement with any other employee of the Company shall not be deemed a waiver by the Company to enforce its rights under this Agreement. Further, any waiver by the Company of any breach by the Optionee of any provision of this Agreement, shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach hereof.

Vesting of Option. The Option will vest with respect to 34% of the underlying shares of Common Stock on the first anniversary of the Grant Date and with respect to an additional 33% of the underlying shares of Common Stock on each of the second and third anniversaries of the Grant Date. Except as provided in Section 9 of this Agreement, the Option will expire and will not be exercisable after ten years from Grant Date (the "Expiration Date").

3.
Timing of Grant Acceptance. Participant must electronically accept his/her grant of Option within 90 days from the Grant Date (the “Grant Acceptance Date”) or he/she will forfeit this Option.

4.
Exercise of Option . To the extent that the Option is exercisable, the Optionee may exercise the Option by delivering to the Company or its agent a properly executed exercise notice on a form approved by the Committee. The Company will not permit the exercise of the Option if the Company



determines, in its sole and absolute discretion, that issuance of shares underlying the Option could violate any law or regulation.

In the event of the Optionee's death, the Option may be exercised by the executor or administrator of a deceased Optionee's estate, or by the person or persons to whom the Option has been transferred by the Optionee's will or the applicable laws of descent and distribution, provided that the Company will be under no obligation to deliver shares underlying the Option unless and until the Company is satisfied that the person exercising the Option is the duly appointed executor or administrator of the deceased Optionee or the person to whom the Option has been transferred by the Optionee's will or by the applicable laws of descent and distribution.

5.
Payment of Exercise Price. Payment of the exercise price of the Option may be made in cash or by certified check, bank draft, wire transfer or postal or express money order or any other form of consideration approved by the Committee. Alternatively, payment of the exercise price may be made by (a) delivering to the Company, or its agent, a properly executed exercise notice, together with irrevocable instructions to a broker to deliver promptly to the Company the amount of sale proceeds with respect to the portion of the shares to be acquired upon exercise having a Fair Market Value on the date of exercise equal to the sum of the applicable portion of the exercise price being so paid and appropriate tax withholding, (b) tendering (actually or by attestation) to the Company previously acquired Shares that have been held by the Optionee for at least six months having a Fair Market Value on the date prior to the date of exercise equal to the applicable portion of the Exercise Price being paid, or (c) any combination of the foregoing. Payment of the exercise price of the Option must be made in full for all shares for which the Option is exercised at the time of such exercise, and no shares will be delivered until such payment is made. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a form of payment will not be available if the Company determines, in its sole and absolute discretion, that such form of payment could violate any law or regulation.

6.
Delivery of Shares . The Company will not be obligated to deliver any shares underlying the Option unless and until the Company is satisfied that (a) proper arrangements have been made with the Company for the payment of any applicable tax withholding obligations, (b) all requirements of all applicable laws have been met, (c) in the event the outstanding Common Stock is at the time listed upon any stock exchange, the shares to be delivered have been listed, or authorized to be listed, upon official notice of issuance upon the exchanges where it is listed, and (d) all legal matters in connection with the issuance and delivery of the shares have been approved by counsel of the Company. The Optionee will have no rights of a stockholder until the shares are actually delivered to the Optionee. Common Stock to be delivered upon the exercise of the Option may constitute an original issue of authorized stock or may consist of treasury stock.

7.
Transferability of Option . Except as provided below, the Option may not be transferred by the Optionee other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution and during the Optionee's lifetime the Option may be exercised only by the Optionee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Option may be transferred by the Optionee to his or her family members or to one or more trusts for the benefit of such family members or to one or more limited partnerships in which such family members are the only partners; provided that (a) the Optionee does not receive any consideration for such transfer, (b) written notice of any proposed transfer and the details thereof will have been furnished to the Committee at least three days in advance of such transfer, and (c) the Committee consents to the transfer in writing. If the Option is transferred pursuant to this provision, it will continue to be subject to the same terms and conditions that were applicable to such Option immediately prior to transfer and the Option may be exercised by the transferee only to the same extent that the option



could have been exercised by the Optionee had no transfer been made. For this purpose, the Optionee's "family members" will include the Optionee's spouse, children, grandchildren, parents, grandparents (whether natural, step, adopted or in-laws) siblings, nieces, nephews and grandnieces and grandnephews.

8.
Death or Termination of Employment Due to Disability . If the Optionee dies or incurs a Termination of Employment due to Disability while employed by or providing services to the Company, any portion of the Option that has not become exercisable as of the date of the Optionee's death or Termination of Employment due to Disability will become exercisable in full and will remain exercisable (a) in the case of the Optionee's death, by the estate of the deceased Optionee or the person given authority to exercise the Option by the Optionee's will or by operation of law for a period of one year following the Optionee's death, but not later than the expiration date of the Option; and (b) in the case of the Optionee's Termination of Employment or Disability, by the Optionee for a period of one year following the Optionee's Termination of Employment due to Disability, but not later than the Expiration Date.

Forfeiture and Recovery and Reimbursement of Option Gain. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or the Plan to the contrary, the Option will be terminated and become null and void without consideration if the Optionee, as determined by the Committee in its sole discretion, engages in any Prohibited Activities (as defined in Appendix A ).

If the Optionee engages in any of the Prohibited Activities, the Optionee shall, at the sole discretion of the Committee, forfeit any gain realized in respect of any Option that has been exercised within 12 months prior to the Optionee's Termination of Employment (the "Affected Option"), which gain shall be deemed to be an amount equal to aggregate of the difference between the Exercise Price of the Affected Option and the corresponding Fair Market Value (as defined in the Plan), on the applicable exercise date, of the shares of Common Stock deemed delivered to the Optionee (including any shares sold or withheld to cover any portion of the payment of its exercise price and/or tax withholding). The Optionee shall repay such gain to the Company immediately after demand by the Company, but not later than ten days following such demand. The amount of the gain calculated pursuant to this Section 10 shall not take into account any taxes paid by or withheld from the Optionee in connection with the exercise of the Affected Option.

Appendix A

1.
Prohibited Activities. The Optionee recognizes that the Company is engaged in a highly competitive business and that its customer, employee, licensee, supplier and financial relationships are of a highly sensitive nature. As a reasonable means to protect the Company's Confidential Information (as defined in the subclause (a) below), investment, relationships, and goodwill, and in consideration for the Option grant, the Optionee agrees that, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Optionee will not, either during his or her employment or for a period of 12 months following the termination of his or her employment (or such longer period specified below) for any reason engage in any of the following " Prohibited Activities ":

(a)
Engage in any business activity in a Restricted Area that competes with the business activities of the Company and its corporate affiliates about which Optionee either had (i) a job responsibility to promote, or (ii) access to Confidential Information. "Restricted Area" for purposes of this Agreement, means a geographic area that the Optionee served or covered on behalf of the Company at any time within the 18 months preceding the end of his or her employment with the Company. " Confidential Information, " for the purposes of this Agreement, means information, including information that is conceived or developed by the Optionee that is not generally known to the public and that is used by the Company in connection with its business. By way of example, the term "Confidential Information" would include: trade secrets; processes; formulas; research data; program documentation; algorithms; source codes; object codes; know-how; improvements; inventions; techniques; training materials and methods; product information; corporate strategy; sales forecast and pipeline information; research and development; plans or strategies for marketing and pricing; and information concerning existing or potential customers, partners, or vendors. The Optionee understands that this list is not all-inclusive and merely serves as examples of the types of information that falls within the definition of Confidential Information.

(b)
Solicit, call on, service or induce others to solicit, call on or service any "Customer" for the purpose of inducing it to license or lease a product or provide it with services that compete with a product or service offered by the Company. A "Customer," for purposes of this Agreement, means any person or business entity that licensed or leased a Company product or obtained Company services within the 18 months preceding the end of the Optionee's employment with the Company and that the Optionee had solicited, called on, or served on the Company's behalf anytime within that 18-month time period.

(c)
Solicit, call on, or induce others to solicit or call on, any "Prospective Customer" for the purpose of inducing it to license or lease a product or provide it with services which compete with a product or service offered by the Company. A "Prospective Customer," for purposes of this Agreement, is any person or business entity that the Optionee solicited or called on (whether directly or through another Company agent at the Optionee's direction) on behalf of the Company anytime within the 12 months preceding the end of the Optionee's employment with the Company.

(d)
Directly or indirectly through others, hire any employee or contractor of the Company, or solicit or induce, or attempt to solicit or induce, any Company employee or contractor to leave the Company for any reason.




(e)
For any period following the termination of the Optionee's employment, violate a non-competition, non-solicitation or non-disclosure covenant or agreement between the Optionee and the Company or any Related Company (including, without limitation, the Employment and Confidentiality Agreement signed at or around the time of the Optionee's hire).

Different restrictions apply if, at or prior to termination, the Optionee was or had been a programmer, software engineer, analyst, support technician, quality assurance technician, technical documentation writer and/or a manager in a research and development capacity. If so, then the Optionee's obligations under this Paragraph 1 shall be satisfied if the Optionee does not, for one year following Termination of Employment for any reason, work on any program or product which may be competitive with any program or product of the Company with which the Optionee was involved in a research and development or support capacity anytime within the 18 months preceding the end of the Optionee's employment with the Company.


2.
Tolling of Covenants in the Event of Breach. In the event the Optionee engages in any of the Prohibited Activities, the time period of the violated covenant(s) shall be tolled throughout the duration of any violation and shall continue until the Optionee has complied with such covenant(s) for a period of 12 consecutive full months.

3.
Injunction. The Optionee acknowledges that, by virtue of the Optionee's employment with the Company, the Optionee will have access to Confidential Information of the Company, the disclosure of which will irreparably harm the Company. The Optionee further acknowledges that the Company will suffer irreparable harm if the Optionee breaches any of the Optionee's obligations under this Agreement. Therefore, the Optionee agrees that the Company will be entitled, in addition to its other rights, to enforce the Optionee's obligations through an injunction or decree of specific performance from a court having proper jurisdiction. Any claims the Optionee may assert against the Company shall not constitute a defense in any injunction action brought by the Company to force the Optionee to keep the promises the Optionee made in this Agreement.

4.
Authorization to Modify Restrictions. The Optionee agrees that the restrictions contained in this Agreement are reasonable. However, if any court having proper jurisdiction holds a particular restriction to be unreasonable, that restriction shall be modified only to the extent necessary in the court's opinion to make it reasonable and the remaining provisions of this Agreement including without limitation Appendix A shall nonetheless remain in full force and effect. The other provisions of this Agreement are likewise severable.

5.
General.

(a)
The Optionee understands and agrees that, if the Company is successful in a suit or proceeding to enforce any of the terms of this Agreement, the Optionee will pay the Company's costs of bringing such suit or proceeding, including its reasonable attorney's fees and litigation expenses (including expert witness and deposition expenses).
 
(b)
This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and may be enforced by the Company, its successors and assigns. Except as otherwise permitted by this Agreement, this Agreement is personal to the Optionee and the Optionee may not assign it.




(c)
The Company’s rights under this Agreement shall be in addition to any rights it may have under any other Agreement with Optionee.

(d)
Any failure to enforce the terms of this Agreement with any other employee of the Company shall not be deemed a waiver by the Company to enforce its rights under this Agreement. Further, any waiver by the Company of any breach by the Optionee of any provision of this Agreement, shall not operate or be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach hereof.
