AMENDED AND RESTATED EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

     This Amended and Restated Employment Agreement, dated as of September 30, 2009, (the “ Effective Date ”) amends and restates the original Agreement entered into by and between CA, Inc.

     1.  Employment, Duties, Authority and Work Standards . The Company hereby agrees to employ the Employee on the Effective Date as Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer (“ CFO ”) and the Employee hereby accepts such positions and agrees to serve the Company in such capacities during the Employment Period (as defined below). The Employee shall report directly to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer. The Employee’s 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. The Employee will (a) serve the Company (and such of its subsidiary companies as the Company may designate) faithfully, diligently and to the best of the Employee’s ability under the direction of the Chief Executive Officer, (b) devote her full working time and best efforts, attention and energy to the performance of her duties to the Company and (c) not do anything inconsistent with her duties to the Company; provided however, that the Company agrees that the Employee may continue to serve as a director of Teradata Corporation, so long as such service does not significantly interfere with the Employee’s duties to the Company under this Agreement.

     2.  Laws; Other Agreements . The Employee represents that her employment hereunder will not violate any law or duty by which she is bound, and will not conflict with or violate any agreement or instrument to which the Employee is a party or by which she is bound.

     3.  Compensation .

          (a) In consideration of services that the Employee will render to the Company, the Company agrees to pay the Employee, during the Employment Period, the sum of $600,000 per annum (the “ Base Salary ”), payable semi-monthly concurrent with the Company’s normal payroll cycle, subject to annual review by the Compensation and Human Resources Committee of the Board of Directors (the “Compensation Committee”).

          (b) In addition to the Base Salary, during the Employment Period, the Employee shall have an opportunity to earn an annual cash bonus (“ Annual Bonus ”) under the Company’s Annual Performance Bonus program in accordance with Section 4.4 of the Company’s 2007 Incentive Plan, as amended and restated, or any successor thereto (the “Incentive Plan”). The Employee’s Annual Bonus target for the fiscal year commencing on April 1, 2010 shall equal $600,000, provided that such targeted amount and the other terms and conditions of such Annual Performance Bonus shall be subject to determination and approval of the Compensation Committee.

          (c) In addition, the Employee shall also be eligible to receive a targeted Long-Term Performance Bonus of $2,000,000 for the performance period commencing on April 1, 2010 under the Company’s Long-Term Performance Bonus program as set forth in Section 4.5 of the Incentive Plan, provided that such targeted amount and the other terms and conditions of such Long-Term Performance Bonus shall be subject to determination and approval of the Compensation Committee in accordance with the terms of the Incentive Plan.

     5.  Termination; Termination Payments.

          (a) Unless the Employee’s employment shall sooner terminate for any reason pursuant to Section 6 of this Agreement, the “ Employment Period ” shall commence on the Effective Date and shall initially terminate on September 30, 2010, except that beginning on September 30, 2010 and each September 30 thereafter, the Employment Period will automatically extend for one year unless either the Employee or the Company gives at least 90 days’ advanced written notice of non-extension (a “ Notice of Non-Extension ”). For purposes of this Agreement, “Employment Period” refers to the period of the Employee’s employment that is governed by the terms of this Agreement. Upon either party giving the other a Notice of Non-Extension, the Employment Period will end on September 30 of such year in which notice was given and except for, if applicable, the severance benefits expressly set forth in Section 5 of this Agreement, the Employee’s employment will no longer be subject to the terms of this Agreement.

Additionally, the Employee shall be eligible to receive a portion of any outstanding Annual Bonus and One-Year and Three-Year Performance Share Awards for which the performance cycle ends within two years of the Employee’s Termination Date, provided that such payment (i) shall be made only after the end of the applicable performance cycle, (ii) shall be based upon the actual performance achieved as determined in the sole discretion of the Company (provided, however, that negative discretion shall only be applied if, and to the extent, it is applied generally to the executive management team) and (iii) shall be pro-rated for the portion of the performance period that has been completed by the Employee through the Termination Date (provided, however that nothing herein shall be construed to accelerate the vesting of any Performance Share Award). Additionally, 20,000 shares of restricted stock granted to the Employee on July 28, 2009 shall automatically vest on the date of termination.
