The EU competition watchdog said the extension was agreed with Broadcom, which is looking to diversify into enterprise software.

The Commission is expected to warn Broadcom about potential anti-competitive effects of the proposed deal in the coming weeks, sources close to the matter have told Reuters.

The U.S. and UK antitrust agencies are also investigating the proposed acquisition.
