Electronic Arts 2007 Annual Report Download - page 58

To EA’s knowledge, based solely upon review of such reports furnished to us and written representations that
no other reports were required, we believe that, except as described in the following sentence, during the fiscal
year ended March 31, 2007, all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to our officers, directors and
greater-than-ten-percent stockholders were complied with on a timely basis. As the result of an administrative
error, a late Form 4 was filed on May 23, 2006, for Kenneth A. Barker to report his receipt of a stock option
on April 18, 2006 to purchase 20,000 shares.
STOCKHOLDER PROPOSALS FOR 2008 ANNUAL MEETING
If you would like us to consider a proposal to be included in our 2008 proxy statement and proxy card, you
must deliver it to the Company’s Corporate Secretary at our principal executive office no later than
February 21, 2008.
Stockholders who otherwise wish to present a proposal at the 2008 Annual Meeting of Stockholders must
deliver written notice of the proposal to our Corporate Secretary c/o Electronic Arts Inc., 209 Redwood Shores
Parkway, Redwood City, CA 94065, no earlier than March 22, 2008 and no later than April 21, 2008
(provided, however, that if the 2008 Annual Meeting is held earlier than June 26, 2008 or later than August 25,
2008, proposals must be received no earlier than the close of business on the later of the 90th day prior to the
2008 Annual Meeting or the 10th day following the day on which public announcement of the 2008 Annual
Meeting is first made). The submission must include certain information concerning the stockholder and the
proposal, as specified in the Company’s amended and restated bylaws. Our amended and restated bylaws are
included as an exhibit to a Current Report on Form 8-K we filed with the SEC on November 13, 2006, which
you may access through the SEC’s electronic data system called EDGAR at www.sec.gov. You may also
request a copy of our amended and restated bylaws by contacting our Corporate Secretary at the address
above.
HOUSEHOLDING OF PROXY MATERIALS
The SEC has adopted rules that permit companies and intermediaries (e.g., brokers) to satisfy the delivery
requirements for proxy statements and annual reports with respect to two or more stockholders sharing the
same address by delivering a single proxy statement and annual report addressed to those stockholders. This
process, which is commonly referred to as “householding”, potentially means extra convenience for stockhold-
ers and cost savings for companies.
This year, a number of brokers with account holders who are EA stockholders will be “householding” our
proxy materials. A single proxy statement will be delivered to multiple stockholders sharing an address unless
contrary instructions have been received from the affected stockholders. Once you have received notice from
your broker that they will be “householding” communications to your address, “householding” will continue
until you are notified otherwise or until you revoke your consent. If, at any time, you no longer wish to
participate in “householding” and would prefer to receive a separate proxy statement and annual report, please
notify your broker, direct your written request to our Corporate Secretary at our principal executive office, or
contact our Corporate Secretary at [phone]. Stockholders who currently receive multiple copies of the
proxy statement and annual report at their address and would like to request “householding” of their
communications should contact their broker.
REQUESTS TO THE COMPANY
The Company will provide without charge, to each person to whom a proxy statement is delivered, upon
request of such person and by first class mail within one business day of receipt of such request, a copy of the
2000 Equity Incentive Plan and 2000 Employee Stock Purchase Plan. Any such request should be directed as
follows: Stock Administration Department, Electronic Arts Inc., 209 Redwood Shores Parkway, Redwood City,
CA 94065 — telephone number [phone].
