Other Events.

 

On February 10, 2009, Activision Blizzard, Inc. (the “Company”) announced that its 2009 annual meeting of stockholders will be held on June 5, 2009 in Beverly Hills, California.  The record date for determining stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting will be April 7, 2009.

 

Because of the recent change in the Company’s fiscal year end, the date of the 2009 annual meeting will be more than 30 days prior to the anniversary of the 2008 annual meeting.

 

Pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act, stockholders may present proposals for inclusion in the Company’s proxy statement for the 2009 annual meeting by submitting their proposals to the Company a reasonable time before the Company begins to print and send its proxy materials. The Company’s Board of Directors has set the deadline for receipt of stockholder proposals pursuant to Rule 14a-8 as March 7, 2009.  In order for a proposal under Rule 14a-8 to be considered timely, it must be received by the Company on or prior to March 7, 2009 at the Company’s principal executive offices at 3100 Ocean Park Boulevard, Santa Monica, California 90405 and be directed to the attention of the Corporate Secretary.  All stockholder proposals must be in compliance with applicable laws and regulations in order to be considered for inclusion in the proxy statement for the 2009 annual meeting.

 

Under the Company’s bylaws, stockholders may also present a proposal or director nomination at the 2009 annual meeting if advance written notice is timely given to the Secretary of the Company, at the Company’s principal executive offices, in accordance with the Company’s bylaws.  To be timely, notice by a stockholder of any proposal or nomination must be provided not later than the close of business on March 7, 2009, which is the 90th day prior to the 2009 annual meeting.  The Company’s bylaws specify requirements relating to the content of the notice that stockholders must provide.
