                              AMENDED AND RESTATED
                             AUDIT COMMITTEE CHARTER

            This Audit Committee Charter ("Charter") has been adopted by the
Board of Directors (the "Board") of Atari, Inc. (f/k/a Infogrames, Inc.) (the
"Company"). The Audit Committee of the Board (the "Audit Committee") shall be
appointed by the Board and shall be constituted and have the authority and
responsibility described herein. The purpose of the Audit Committee is to
oversee the accounting and financial reporting processes of the Company and the
audits of the financial statements of the Company. The Audit Committee shall
review and reassess the adequacy of this Charter annually and recommend any
proposed changes to the Board for approval.

                       ROLE AND INDEPENDENCE; ORGANIZATION

            The Audit Committee assists the Board in fulfilling its
responsibility for oversight of the quality and integrity of the accounting,
auditing and financial reporting practices of the Company; independent auditor's
qualifications and independence the performance of the Company's internal and
external auditors;; the Company's compliance with ethics policies and legal
regulatory requirements; and the overall integrity of the Company's financial
statements and information systems. It may also have such other duties as may
from time to time be assigned to it by the Board.

            The membership of the Audit Committee shall consist of at least
three directors, each of whom is independent of management and the Company.
Members of the Audit Committee shall be considered independent as long as they
do not accept any consulting, advisory, or other compensatory fee from the
Company (other than in his or her capacity as a member of the Board and any
Board committee) and are not an affiliated person of the Company or its
subsidiaries, and meet the independence requirements of the stock exchange
listing standards. Each Audit Committee member shall also meet the financial
literacy and related audit committee requirements of the listing standards of
the Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc. All members of the Audit Committee shall be
financially literate and at least one member of the Audit Committee shall be an
"audit committee financial expert", as that term is defined by Securities and
Exchange Commission ("SEC") regulations.

            The Audit Committee shall maintain free and open communication with
the independent auditors, the internal auditors and Company management and shall
meet at least annually with the chief financial officer and the independent
auditor in separate executive sessions. In discharging its oversight role, the
Audit Committee shall have full access to all Company books, records,
facilities, personnel and outside professionals. The Audit Committee shall have
the authority to retain special, independent, legal, accounting or other
consultants or experts as advisors for any matters relating to the purpose of
the Audit Committee. Prior to engaging any such consultant or expert, the Audit
Committee shall first propose to the Board that such engagement may be necessary
and discuss the matter with the Board.

<PAGE>

            The Audit Committee shall meet at least four times a year and make a
report to the Board following each meeting. Such meetings may be in conjunction
with the review of quarterly reports or otherwise and may be in person or
telephonic. One member of the Audit Committee shall be appointed as chair. The
chair shall be responsible for leadership of the Audit Committee, including
scheduling and presiding over meetings, preparing agendas and making regular
reports to the Board. The chair will also maintain regular liaison with the CEO,
CFO, the lead independent audit partner and the director of internal audit.

                                RESPONSIBILITIES

            While the Audit Committee has the responsibility and authority set
forth in this Charter, it is not the duty of the Audit Committee to plan or
conduct audits or to determine that the Company's financial statements are
complete and accurate and are in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles. Management is responsible for the preparation of the Company's
financial statements and the independent auditors are responsible for auditing
those financial statements. The Audit Committee and the Board recognize that
management (including the internal audit staff) and the independent auditors
have more resources and time, and more detailed knowledge and information
regarding the Company's accounting, financial and auditing practices than do
Audit Committee members; accordingly, the Audit Committee's oversight role does
not provide any expert or special assurance as to the Company's financial
statements or any certification as to the work of the independent auditors.

            Although the Audit Committee may wish to consider other duties from
time to time, the general recurring activities of the Audit Committee in
carrying out its oversight role are described below. The Audit Committee shall
have sole and exclusive responsibility for:

      -     Selecting and evaluating the performance of the Company's
            independent auditors (including resolution of disagreements between
            management and the independent auditors regarding financial
            reporting) and, if appropriate, terminating, replacing or rotating
            the independent auditors, subject to any requisite action by the
            Board and ratification by the Company's stockholders at the annual
            meeting of the stockholders. Prior to taking any such action with
            respect to the engagement of the independent auditors, the Audit
            Committee shall first propose to the Board that such action may be
            necessary and discuss the matter with the Board. It is a policy of
            the Board and the Audit Committee that the ultimate accountability
            of the independent auditors shall be owed to the Board and the Audit
            Committee as representative of the Company's stockholders.

      -     Pre-approval of all audit and non-audit services provided by the
            independent auditors and shall not engage the independent auditors
            to perform the specific non-audit services proscribed by law or
            regulation. The Audit Committee may delegate pre-approval authority
            to a member of the Audit Committee. The decisions of any Audit
            Committee member to whom pre-approval authority is delegated must be
            presented to the full Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting.

            Audit Committee shall actively engage in a dialogue with the
            independent auditors with respect to any disclosed relationship that
            may impact the objectivity and independence of the auditors and
            shall take or recommend that the Board take appropriate actions to
            oversee the auditors' independence.

      -     Inquiring of the independent auditors whether the auditors believe

            basis and discussing them with management and the independent

            discussions shall include the matters required to be discussed under
            Statement of Auditing Standards No. 61 and consideration of the
            quality, not just the acceptability, of the Company's accounting
            principles as applied in its financial reporting. Such discussions
            may include a review of particularly sensitive accounting estimates,

            adjustments (whether or not recorded), review of risk exposures that

            and other such inquiries as the Audit Committee or the independent
            auditors shall deem appropriate. Based on its review, the Audit
            Committee shall make its recommendation to the Board as to the
            inclusion of the Company's audited financial statements in the
            Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K (or the Form 10-K). Also, the
            Audit Committee shall discuss the results of the annual review and
            any other matters required to be communicated to the Audit Committee
            by the independent auditors under generally accepted auditing
            standards.

            auditors any problems or difficulties the auditors may have

            and the Company's response to such letters; and providing the
            auditors full access to the Audit Committee and the Board to report
