Chief Executive Officer

Islandia, NY 11749
Mr. McCracken:
We are writing to commend you on CAs recent initiatives to increase significantly the return of capital to shareholders. We believe the larger dividend and accelerated share repurchase are a powerful signal to investors that management intends to run the business in a more shareholder-friendly manner. The substantial increase in CAs share price following the announcement of these actions reflects the markets approval for this approach. We continue to see meaningful opportunities for the company to enhance shareholder value, including further increasing margins in the enterprise solutions business, better aligning management compensation with shareholder interests, and returning additional capital to shareholders.
As you know, since the time of our initial 13D filing on January 11, 2012, CAs stock has returned over 30% based upon the March 19, 2012 closing price. The value of our investment in CA has increased accordingly and, as a result, we have elected to reduce our position for risk management purposes. Although the impact of this reduction will be to move our percentage ownership below the 5% threshold, CA remains our largest equity holding. We believe the stock has substantial upside and we intend to continue to work toward maximizing shareholder value.
Sincerely,
/s/ Kenneth D. Brody |
