FUTURE STOCKHOLDER PROPOSALS
Activision Blizzard will hold an annual meeting of stockholders in 2022, which we refer to as the “Activision Blizzard 2022 annual meeting,” only if the merger has not already been completed.
Pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act and the Activision Blizzard bylaws, any stockholder proposals intended to be presented at the Activision Blizzard 2022 annual meeting and considered for inclusion in Activision Blizzard’s proxy materials must have been received by Activision Blizzard no later than December 31, 2021 (unless the date of our Activision Blizzard 2022 annual meeting is advanced by more than 30 days or delayed by more than 30 days from the anniversary date of the previous annual meeting in which case the proposal must be received a reasonable time before we begin to print and mail our proxy materials for our Activision Blizzard 2022 annual meeting). Such proposals must also have met the other requirements and procedures prescribed by Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act relating to stockholder proposals.
Under the Activision Blizzard bylaws, stockholder proposals made outside of Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act and nominees for director submitted by stockholders must have been received by Activision Blizzard by March 16, 2022 (unless the date of our Activision Blizzard 2022 annual meeting is advanced by more than 30 days or delayed by more than 30 days from the anniversary date of the previous annual meeting, in which case the notice must be submitted no earlier than 120 days prior to the Activision Blizzard 2022 annual meeting and no later than the later of the 90th day before the Activision Blizzard 2022 annual meeting and the 10th day following the day on which notice of the date of the Activision Blizzard 2022 annual meeting is first mailed to the shareholders or public disclosure of the date of the Activision Blizzard 2022 annual meeting is first made, whichever first occurs). Such proposals must be in writing and meet the requirements set forth in the Activision Blizzard bylaws and must pertain to business that is a proper matter for stockholder action under the DCGL.
