Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-looking Statements

        Information in these materials that involves expectations, plans, intentions or strategies regarding the future are forward-looking statements that are not facts and involve a number of risks and uncertainties. Activision generally uses words such as "anticipate," "believe," "could," "estimate," "expect," "forecast," "future," "intend," "may," "outlook," "plan," "positioned," "potential," "project," "remain," "scheduled," "set to," "subject to," "to be," "upcoming," "will" and other similar expressions to help identify forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are subject to business and economic risk, reflect management's current expectations, estimates and projections about our business, and are inherently uncertain and difficult to predict. Activision's actual results could differ materially.

        Factors that could cause actual future results to differ materially from those expressed in the forward-looking statements set forth in these materials include, but are not limited to, the timing and successful completion of the transactions described in these materials (including the timing and receipt of stockholder approval and the satisfaction of other closing conditions), the combined company's success in executing planned strategies and achieving assumed synergies and cost savings, sales of each company's titles, shifts in consumer spending trends, the seasonal and cyclical nature of the interactive game market, the ability of the combined company to predict consumer preferences among competing hardware platforms (including next-generation hardware), declines in software pricing, product returns and price protection, product delays, retail acceptance of the combined company's products, adoption rate and availability of new hardware and related software, industry competition, rapid changes in

technology and industry standards, protection of proprietary rights, maintenance of relationships with key personnel, customers, vendors and third-party developers, international economic and political conditions, integration of recent acquisitions and identification of suitable future acquisition opportunities, and foreign exchange rate changes.

        The forward-looking statements contained in these materials speak only as of the date on which they were made, and Activision disclaims any obligation to update any forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof. Forward-looking statements believed to be true when made may ultimately prove to be incorrect. These statements are not guarantees of future performance and are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors, some of which are beyond the companies' control and may cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations.
