	 	 	NON-QUALIFIED STOCK OPTION granted by CA, Inc., a Delaware corporation, (the “Company”) to the
above-named option holder (the “Optionee”), an employee or consultant of the Company or one of its
subsidiaries, pursuant to the CA, Inc. 2007 Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), the terms of which are
incorporated herein by reference and which, in the event of any conflict, shall control over the
terms contained herein.
	 
	1.	 	Grant and Vesting Option
	 
	 	 	The Company hereby grants to the Optionee an option to purchase on the terms herein provided a
total of the number of shares of common stock, $.10 par value, of the Company set forth above, at
an exercise price per share as set forth above.
	 
	 	 	This option vests immediately upon grant provided however that it shall become exercisable only at
the rate of twenty percent (20%) per year on each anniversary of the Option Date. Except as
provided in section 8, below, this option shall expire and shall not be exercisable after six (6)
years from the Option Date (the “expiration date”).
	 
	2.	 	Stock to be Delivered
	 
	 	 	Stock to be delivered upon the exercise of this option may constitute an original issue of
authorized stock or may consist of treasury stock.
	 
	3.	 	Exercise of Option
	 
	 	 	Each election to exercise this option shall be made, by 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 or loan proceeds with respect to the portion of shares
to be acquired upon exercise. Exercise of this option will not be permitted if the Company
determines, in its sole and absolute discretion, that issuance of shares at that time could
violate any law or regulation.
	 
	 	 	In the event an option is exercised by the executor or administrator of a deceased Optionee, 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, the Company shall be under no obligation to deliver
stock there under unless and until the Company is satisfied that the person or persons exercising
the option is or are the duly appointed executor(s) or 




 









 






	 	 	administrator(s) 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.






	4.	 	Payment for and Delivery of Stock
	 
	 	 	Payment in full by cash, certified check, bank draft, wire transfer or postal or express money
order shall be made for all shares for which this option is exercised at the time of such
exercise, and no shares shall be delivered until such payment is made.
	 
	 	 	Alternatively, payment may be made by (i) delivering to the Company a properly executed exercise
notice, together with irrevocable instructions to a broker to deliver promptly to the Company the
amount of sale or loan 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, (ii) tendering to the Company (by physical delivery
or by attestation) certificates representing shares of outstanding common stock, par value $.10,
of the Company that have been held by the Optionee for at least six months prior to exercise,
having a Fair Market Value on the day prior to the date of exercise equal to the applicable
portion of the exercise price being so paid, together with stock powers duly executed and with
signature guaranteed; or (iii) any combination of the foregoing. 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.
	 
	 	 	The Company shall not be obligated to deliver any stock unless and until (i) satisfactory
arrangements have been made with the Company for the payment of any applicable tax withholding
obligations, (ii) all applicable federal and state laws and regulations have been complied with,
(iii) 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 (iv) all legal matters in connection with the
issuance and delivery of the shares have been approved by counsel of the Company. The Optionee
shall have no rights of a stockholder until the stock is actually delivered to him.
	 
	5.	 	Recovery and Reimbursement of Option Gain
	 
	 	 	The Company shall have the right to recover, or receive reimbursement for, any compensation or
profit realized by the exercise of this option or by the disposition of any option shares to the
extent that the Company has such a right of recovery or reimbursement under applicable securities
laws.
	 
	6.	 	Transferability of Options
	 
	 	 	Except as provided below, this option may not be transferred by the Optionee otherwise than by
will or the laws of descent and distribution or pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order
as defined in Section 414(p) of the Internal Revenue Code, and during the Optionee’s lifetime this
option may be exercised only by the Optionee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this option may be
transferred by the Optionee to members of his or her immediate family or to one or more trusts for
the benefit of such family members or to one or more partnerships in which such family members are
the only partners provided that (i) the optionee does not receive any consideration for such
transfer, (ii) written notice of any proposed transfer and the details thereof shall have been
furnished to the Compensation and Human Resources Committee at least three (3) days in advance of
such transfer, and (iii) the Compensation and Human Resources Committee consents to the transfer
in writing. Options transferred pursuant to this provision will continue to be subject to the
same terms and conditions that were applicable to such options 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” shall include the Optionee’s spouse, children, grandchildren, parents,
grandparents (whether natural step, adopted or in-laws) siblings, nieces, nephews and grandnieces
and grand nephews.





 









 






	7.	 	Termination of Employment or Consultancy
	 
	 	 	Upon termination of service from the Board any portion of this option that as of such date has not
been exercised shall terminate on the expiration date of the option.
	 
	8.	 	Death
	 
	 	 	If the Optionee dies while employed by the Company, any unexercised portion of this option held by
the Optionee at his date of death will become exercisable in full and will remain exercisable by
the estate of the deceased Optionee or the person given authority to exercise his options by his
will or by operation of law for a period of one (1) year, but not later than the expiration date
of the Option, provided, however, that if the Optionee’s death occurs within six (6) months prior
to the expiration date of the option the option shall remain exercisable up until six (6) months
from the Optionee’s death.
	 
	9.	 	Changes In Stock
	 
	 	 	In the event of any stock split, reverse stock split, dividend or other distribution (whether in
the form of cash, shares, other securities or other property), extraordinary cash dividend,
recapitalization, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, reorganization, combination,
repurchase or exchange of shares or other securities, the issuance of warrants or other rights to
purchase shares or other securities, or other similar corporate transaction or event, the number
and kind of shares of stock of the Company covered by this option, the option price and other
relevant provisions may shall be appropriately adjusted by the Compensation and Human Resource
Committee, in its discretion, to the extent necessary to prevent dilution or enlargement of the
benefits or potential benefits intended to be provided by this option.
	 
	10.	 	Continuance of Employment
	 
	 	 	This option shall not be deemed to obligate the Company or any subsidiary to retain the Optionee
in its employ for any period.
	 
	 	 	IN WITNESS WHEREOF, CA, Inc. has caused this certificate to be executed by the Executive Vice
President of Global Human Resources. This option is granted at the Company’s principal executive
office, One CA Plaza, Islandia, New York 11749, on the date stated above.
