Annual Report
As of March 31, 2015, we were committed to pay approximately $1,584 million to content licensors, independent
software developers, and co-publishing and/or distribution affiliates, but performance remained with the
counterparty (i.e., delivery of the product or content or other factors) and such commitments were therefore not
recorded in our Consolidated Financial Statements. See Note 13 for further information on our developer and
licensor commitments.
