The Reporting Persons are jointly filing this Form 3 pursuant to Rule 16a-3(j) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). This filing shall not be deemed an admission that any of the Reporting Persons is subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act. Mr. Hao and certain affiliates of the Reporting Persons have separately reported their beneficial ownership of securities of the Issuer (or its predecessor, Broadcom Ltd.) for purposes of Section 16 of the Exchange Act.

No securities are beneficially owned.
