(1) Each grant was approved on the approval date indicated above by our Executive Compensation and
Leadership Committee for grant on the specific grant date indicated above. For more information regarding
our grant date policy, see “Equity Awards Grant Practices” in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis
above.
(2) The amounts shown represent the target and maximum amount of potential cash bonus plan awards provided
for under the Electronic Arts Executive Bonus Plan. The target amounts are pre-established as a percentage of
salary and the maximum amounts represent the greatest payout, which could have been made if the
pre-established performance level was met or exceeded. For more information regarding the bonuses paid to
our NEOs in fiscal 2011, see the sections titled “Individual NEO Compensation” and “Executive Bonus Plan”
in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis above.
(3) Represents awards of RSUs granted under our 2000 Equity Incentive Plan. Upon vesting, each restricted stock
unit automatically converts into one share of EA common stock, and does not have an exercise price or
expiration date. The RSUs are not entitled to receive dividends, if any, paid by EA on its common stock.
(4) Represents the aggregate grant-date fair value calculated using the closing price of our common stock on the
date of grant. For a more detailed discussion of the valuation methodology and assumptions used to calculate
fair value, see Note 13, “Stock-Based Compensation and Employee Benefit Plans”, of the Consolidated
Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2011. The
amounts reflected in this column represent the value determined by EA for financial statement
reporting purposes and the amounts shown do not reflect the actual value that will be realized by the
recipient.
(5) RSUs vest as to one-third 12 months from the grant date, then vest as to an additional one-third 24 months
from the grant date and then vest as to the remaining one-third 36 months from the grant date.
(6) Mr. Schappert resigned and ceased being EA’s Chief Operating Officer effective April 25, 2011.
