Control of the Company (as that term may be defined therein), (i) Options
(and share appreciation rights) immediately vest and become fully exercisable, (ii) restrictions

Plan, a Change of Control shall mean an event described in the applicable document evidencing the Award or such other event as determined in the sole discretion of the Board of Directors of the Company. The Committee, in its discretion, may determine that, upon the occurrence of a Change of Control of the Company, each Option and share appreciation right outstanding hereunder shall terminate within a specified number of days after notice to the Participant or Holder, and such Participant or Holder shall receive, with respect to each Share subject to such Option or share appreciation right, an amount equal to the excess of the Fair Market Value of such Share immediately prior to the occurrence of such Change of Control over the exercise price per share of such Option or share appreciation right; such amount to be payable in cash, in one or more kinds of property (including the property, if any, payable in the transaction) or in a combination thereof, as the Committee, in its discretion, shall determine.
This excerpt taken from the ATVI 10-K filed Jun 9, 2005. Change of Control. If the Holder is an active employee of the Company or any of
its subsidiaries at the time there occurs a Change of Control of the Company
and the Holders employment is terminated by the Company or any of its
subsidiaries other than for Cause (as defined below) within twelve (12) months
following such Change of Control, or such longer period as the Committee may
determine, the portion, if any, of this Option with respect to which the right
to exercise has not yet accrued, shall immediately vest and be exercisable in
full, effective upon such termination, for a period of 30 days thereafter, or
such longer period as the Committee may determine. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event
the Holder has a written employment agreement with the Company which contains
terms relating to a Change of Control, all such terms shall supplement this Section 7,
and to the extent that there may be conflicting terms between this Option and
the terms of such employment agreement, the terms of such employment agreement
shall govern the treatment of this Option in the event of a Change of Control
of the Company. For purposes of this
Option, Change of Control shall have the meaning specified in the Holders
written employment agreement with the Company, if any. In the event (i) such term is not
defined in the Holders employment agreement with the Company or (ii) the
Holder does not have a written employment agreement with the Company, a Change
of Control of the Company shall be deemed to occur if:
a. there shall have occurred a Change of Control of a nature that would be required to be reported in response to Item 6(e) of Schedule 14A of Regulation 14A

promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange Act), as in effect on the date hereof, whether or not the Company is then subject to such reporting requirement, | EXCERPTS ON THIS PAGE:
