The Board of Directors shall appoint a committee consisting of at least two members, selected from among the Companys President, CFO, General Counsel/Principal Legal Officer and Principal Compliance Officer, which committee shall be responsible for ensuring compliance with the Companys stock trading and market communications policy. That Committee will be designated the Trading Compliance Committee, and will be responsible for developing (with Board involvement), presenting to the Board for approval, and monitoring and updating (with Board involvement and approval) a comprehensive program (the Trading Compliance Program) designed to ensure compliance with the Companys trading policies. The Board will be responsible for direct oversight of the Trading Compliance Program and the Trading Compliance Committee, and the outside director (non-management) members of the

Board will have direct access to the Trading Compliance Committee, including the opportunity to meet with the Trading Compliance Committee outside the presence of any other member of management. At least once yearly, the outside director members of the Board will receive a report from the Trading Compliance Committee outside the presence of any other members of management. In addition to the above:
(a) The Trading Compliance Committee shall be responsible for pre-clearing in writing all transactions by the Companys directors or those employees subject to §16 (hereinafter Restricted Persons) of the Securities Exchange Act.
(b) The Company will acquire shares of its stock through Company-funded open market stock buy-backs only in accordance with an authorization adopted by a majority of the outside (non-management) directors (buy-back program). Sales of stock by Restricted Persons while the authorization is in effect shall be limited to either (1) sales pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 trading plan approved by the Trading Compliance Committee (or its functional equivalent before such time as the Trading Compliance Committee is created), or (2) sales pre-approved, in writing, by the Trading Compliance Committee (or its functional equivalent before such time as the Trading Compliance Committee is created). Such pre-approval shall expressly consider the impact and timing of open-market buy-backs by the Company authorized or made under such buy-back program in considering whether to approve the proposed sale by any Restricted Persons.
2. The Board (by and through the Trading Compliance Committee if the Board deems appropriate) shall implement a strict policy regarding stock sales by Restricted Persons to eliminate the possibility of future management abuse. This policy shall go beyond the requirement that all stock sales that are subject to 10b5-1 trading plans comply with the requirements of Rule 10b5-1. Failure to comply with the Companys trading policy shall result in appropriate sanctions, including, as appropriate, disgorgement by the individual to the Company of all profits from the transaction or termination.
3. No Restricted Person shall directly or indirectly short Activision stock or engage in put or call transactions involving the Companys stock.
