    Cautions regarding Forward Looking Statements:



    All statements included or incorporated by reference in this release

and Broadcom's presentations at the conferences reference above, other than

statements or characterizations of historical fact, are forward-looking

statements. These forward-looking statements are based on our current

expectations, estimates and projections about our business and industry,

management's beliefs, and certain assumptions made by us, all of which are

subject to change. Forward-looking statements can often be identified by

words such as "anticipates," "expects," "intends," "plans," "predicts,"

"believes," "seeks," "estimates," "may," "will," "should," "would,"

"could," "potential," "continue," "ongoing," similar expressions, and

variations or negatives of these words. These forward-looking statements

are not guarantees of future results and are subject to risks,

uncertainties and assumptions that could cause our actual results to differ

materially and adversely from those expressed in any forward-looking

statement.






    These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to:



    -- general economic and political conditions and specific conditions in

       the markets we address, including the continuing volatility in the

       technology sector and semiconductor industry, trends in the broadband

       communications markets in various geographic regions, including

       seasonality in sales of consumer products into which our products are

       incorporated, and possible disruption in commercial activities related

       to terrorist activity or armed conflict;

    -- the timing, rescheduling or cancellation of significant customer orders

       and our ability, as well as the ability of our customers, to manage

       inventory;

    -- our dependence on a few significant customers for a substantial portion

       of our revenue;

    -- the gain or loss of a key customer, design win or order;

    -- the rate at which our present and future customers and end-users adopt

       Broadcom's technologies and products in our target markets;

    -- our ability to specify, develop or acquire, complete, introduce, market

       and transition to volume production new products and technologies in a

       cost-effective and timely manner;

    -- the availability and pricing of third party semiconductor foundry,

       assembly and test capacity and raw materials;

    -- intellectual property disputes and customer indemnification claims and

       other types of litigation risk;

    -- risks and uncertainties resulting from Broadcom's equity award review,

       including potential claims and proceedings related to such matters,

       such as shareholder litigation and any action by the SEC, U.S.

       Attorney's Office or other governmental agency that has resulted in,

       and could result in, further civil or criminal sanctions against the

       company and/or certain of our current or former officers, directors or

       employees, or other actions taken or required as a result of the

       review, and the extent to which we are able to receive reimbursement of

       our expenses related to such litigation and actions through our

       directors' and officers' insurance carriers. In the event that the

       company's coverage under these policies is reduced or denied, our

       financial exposure would be increased;

    -- our ability to retain, recruit and hire key executives, technical

       personnel and other employees in the positions and numbers, with the

       experience and capabilities, and at the compensation levels needed to

       implement our business and product plans;

    -- the effectiveness of our expense and product cost control and reduction

       efforts;

    -- our ability to scale our operations in response to changes in demand

       for our existing products and services or demand for new products

       requested by our customers;

    -- the quality of our products and any potential remediation costs;

    -- competitive pressures and other factors such as the qualification,

       availability and pricing of competing products and technologies and the

       resulting effects on sales and pricing of our products;

    -- our ability to timely and accurately predict market requirements and

       evolving industry standards and to identify opportunities in new

       markets;

    -- the risks of producing products with new suppliers and at new

       fabrication and assembly and test facilities;

    -- problems or delays that we may face in shifting our products to smaller

       geometry process technologies and in achieving higher levels of design

       integration;

    -- delays in the adoption and acceptance of industry standards in our

       target markets;

    -- changes in our product or customer mix;

    -- the volume of our product sales and pricing concessions on volume

       sales;

    -- the timing of customer-industry qualification and certification of our

       products and the risks of non-qualification or non-certification;

    -- fluctuations in the manufacturing yields of our third party

       semiconductor foundries and other problems or delays in the

       fabrication, assembly, testing or delivery of our products;

    -- the risks and uncertainties associated with our international

       operations, particularly in light of terrorist activity, armed conflict

       or political unrest; and

    -- the level of orders received that can be shipped in a fiscal quarter.



    Our Annual Report on Form 10-K, subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form

10-Q, recent Current Reports on Form 8-K, and other Securities and Exchange

Commission filings discuss the foregoing risks as well as other important

risk factors that could contribute to such differences or otherwise affect

our business, results of operations and financial condition. The

forward-looking statements in this release and Broadcom's presentations at

the conferences referenced above speak only as of the date they are made.
