On June 6, 2006, we acquired RedOctane, Inc. (RedOctane) pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as of May 6, 2006, as amended (the Agreement) among Activision, Inc., Activision Publishing, Inc., Green Hydro Acquisition, Inc., RedOctane, and the holders of RedOctane Common Stock, Series A Preferred Stock, Series B-1 Preferred Stock and Series B-2 Preferred Stock (collectively, the Shareholders). In accordance with the Agreement, RedOctane merged with and into Green Hydro Acquisition, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Activision.
Upon completion of the merger, each Shareholder received cash and, subject to certain exceptions, their pro-rata portion of up to 2,382,077 shares of Activision, Inc. common stock, par value $.000001 per share. In addition, each Shareholder will receive, subject to certain exceptions, their pro-rata portion of the number of shares of Activision, Inc. common stock, par value $.000001 per share, equal to $39,000,000, based upon the ten-day trading average of such stock ending on the trading day two business days prior to the distribution to the Shareholders, subject to adjustment.

The total value of the shares which may be distributed as contingent consideration is $51,000,000. In the event the net income of the surviving corporation exceeds the Target Levels by certain amounts, then two shareholders who are also executives of RedOctane will each be entitled to receive up to 277,910 shares of Activision, Inc. common stock, par value $.000001 per share, for a total aggregate value of $7,000,000.
