As previously disclosed, on September 28, 2025, Electronic Arts Inc. ("<u>Electronic Arts</u>" or the "<u>Company</u>") entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the "<u>Merger Agreement</u>") by and among the Company, Oak-Eagle AcquireCo, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("<u>Parent</u>"), and Oak-Eagle MergerCo, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Parent ("<u>Merger Sub</u>"), pursuant to and subject to the terms and conditions of which Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company (the "<u>Merger</u>"), with the Company surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent. Parent and Merger Sub are owned by the Public Investment Fund ("<u>PIF</u>"), and funds affiliated with Silver Lake Technology Management, L.L.C. ("<u>Silver Lake</u>") and A Fin Management LLC ("<u>Affinity</u>," and, together with PIF and Silver Lake, the "<u>Consortium</u>").

In connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, Electronic Arts filed a definitive proxy statement (the "<u>Definitive Proxy Statement</u>") with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "<u>SEC</u>") on November 20, 2025, which Electronic Arts first mailed to its stockholders on or about November 20, 2025.

Following the announcement of the Merger Agreement and as of the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K, purported stockholders of Electronic Arts filed the following lawsuits against Electronic Arts and the individual members of the Electronic Arts board of directors: *John Thompson* vs*. Electronic Arts Inc. et al.,* Case No. 656221/2025 (N.Y. Sup. Ct. Dec. 2, 2025), *Michael Kent* vs. *Electronic Arts Inc. et al.,* Case No. 656269/2025 (N.Y. Sup. Ct. Dec. 3, 2025) and *Robert Garfield* vs. *Electronic Arts Inc. et al.,* Case No. C25-03557 (Cal. Super. Ct. Dec. 3, 2025) (collectively, the "<u>Complaints</u>"). Additionally, beginning on November 17, 2025, Electronic Arts received demand letters from counsel representing other individual purported stockholders of Electronic Arts (collectively, the "<u>Demands</u>" and, together with the Complaints, the "<u>Matters</u>"). The Matters allege, among other things, that the defendants omitted material information from the Definitive Proxy Statement and/or committed negligence and negligent misrepresentation and concealment under state common law.

The outcome of the matters described above cannot be predicted with certainty. Electronic Arts believes that the claims asserted in the Matters are without merit and supplemental disclosures are not required or necessary under applicable laws. However, in order to avoid the risk that the Matters delay or otherwise adversely affect the Merger, and to minimize the costs, risks and uncertainties inherent in litigation, and without admitting any liability or wrongdoing, Electronic Arts is supplementing the Definitive Proxy Statement as described in this Current Report on Form 8-K. Electronic Arts and the other named defendants deny that they have violated any laws. Nothing in this Current Report on Form 8-K shall be deemed an admission of the legal necessity or materiality under applicable laws of any of the disclosures set forth herein or in the Definitive Proxy Statement. To the contrary, Electronic Arts and the other named defendants specifically deny all allegations in the Matters and that any additional disclosure was or is required in the Definitive Proxy Statement. If additional, similar demands or complaints are received by or filed against Electronic Arts, absent new or different allegations that are material, Electronic Arts will not necessarily announce such occurrences.

#### Supplemental Disclosures to the Definitive Proxy Statement

#### The section of the Definitive Proxy Statement entitled "The Merger—Opinion of the Company's Financial Advisor" starting on page 41 is hereby supplemented as follows:
*The first full paragraph on page 43 is amended and supplemented as follows:*

*Illustrative Discounted Cash Flow Analysis*. Using the Financial Forecasts and the Tax Asset Forecasts, Goldman Sachs performed an illustrative discounted cash flow analysis on the Company to derive a range of illustrative present values per share of Company common stock**, using a number of fully diluted shares outstanding provided by Company management based on 249.3 million outstanding shares of Company common stock, 0.003 million outstanding Company Options (using the treasury stock method), 8.0 million outstanding Company RSUs and 1.4 million outstanding Company PSUs (assuming target performance)**. Using the mid-year convention for discounting cash flows and discount rates ranging from 7.5% to 9.5%, reflecting estimates of the Company's weighted average cost of capital **(as estimated by Goldman Sachs by application of the Capital Asset Pricing Model ("CAPM")**, Goldman Sachs discounted to present value as of June 30, 2025 (i) estimates of unlevered free cash flow for the Company for the fiscal years 2026 through 2031, as reflected in the Financial Forecasts, and (ii) a range of illustrative terminal values for the Company, which were calculated by applying perpetuity growth rates ranging from 2% to 3%, to a terminal year estimate of the unlevered free cash flow to be generated by the Company, as reflected in the Financial Forecasts (which analysis implied perpetuity growth rates ranging from 2% to 3%). The range of perpetuity growth rates was estimated by Goldman Sachs utilizing its professional judgment and experience, taking into account the Financial Forecasts and market expectations regarding long-term real growth of gross domestic product and inflation. In addition, using a discount rate of 8.5%, reflecting an estimate of the Company's cost of equity **(as estimated by Goldman Sachs by application of the CAPM)**, Goldman Sachs discounted to present value as of September 25, 2025, the estimated benefits of the Company's NOLs and certain other tax benefits for the years 2026 through 2031, as reflected in the Tax Asset Forecasts. Goldman Sachs derived such discount rates by application of the CAPM, which requires certain company-specific inputs, including the Company's target capital structure weightings, the cost of long-term debt, after-tax yield on permanent excess cash, if any, future applicable marginal cash tax rate and a beta for the Company, as well as certain financial metrics for the United States financial markets generally.

*The paragraph beginning on page 43 and continuing on page 44 is amended and restated as follows:*

Goldman Sachs then subtracted the amount of the Company's total debt and debt-like items and added the amount of the Company's cash and cash equivalents for each of the fiscal years 2026 to 2028, each as provided by and approved for Goldman Sachs' use by the management of the Company, from the respective implied enterprise values in order to derive a range of illustrative equity values as of March 31 for the Company for each of the fiscal years 2026 to 2028. Goldman Sachs then divided these implied equity values by the projected year-end number of fully diluted outstanding Shares **for** each of fiscal years 2026 to 2028, **using a number of fully diluted shares outstanding based on 255.6 million outstanding shares of Company common stock for fiscal year 2026, 250.3 million outstanding shares of Company common stock for fiscal year 2027 and 243.3 million outstanding shares of Company common stock for fiscal year 2028, in each case,** calculated using information provided by and approved for Goldman Sachs' use by the management of the Company, to derive a range of implied future values per share of Company common stock. Goldman Sachs then discounted these implied future values per share of Company common stock to June 30, 2025 using an illustrative discount rate of 8.5%, reflecting an estimate of the Company's cost of equity **(as estimated by Goldman Sachs by application of the CAPM)**. Goldman Sachs then added the present values of the cumulative dividends per share of Company common stock expected to be paid to holders of shares of Company common stock through the end of each of fiscal years 2026 to 2028, using the Financial Forecasts. Goldman Sachs derived such discount rate by application of the CAPM, which requires certain company-specific inputs, including a beta for the company, as well as certain financial metrics for the United States financial markets generally. This analysis resulted in a range of implied present value per share of Company common stock of $157 to $236.

*The first two full paragraphs on page 44 are amended and restated as follows:*

*Premia Paid Analysis.* Goldman Sachs reviewed and analyzed, using publicly available information **published by FactSet as of September 25, 2025**, the acquisition premia for all-cash acquisition transactions announced from July 30, 2015 through September 25, 2025 involving a public company based in the United States as the target where the disclosed enterprise values for the transaction were greater than or equal to $5 billion, **representing a total of 179 transactions.** For the entire period, using **such** publicly available information, Goldman Sachs calculated the median, 25<sup>th</sup> percentile and 75<sup>th</sup> percentile premiums of the price paid in the 179 transactions relative to the target's last undisturbed closing stock price prior to announcement of the transaction**, as follows:**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•  **<u>For the 11 of such transactions announced during 2015, a median premium of 40%;</u>** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•  **<u>For the 17 of such transactions announced during 2016, a median premium of 35%;</u>** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•  **<u>For the 12 of such transactions announced during 2017, a median premium of 24%;</u>** 

------

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•  **<u>For the 20 of such transactions announced during 2018, a median premium of 30%;</u>** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•  **<u>For the 14 of such transactions announced during 2019, a median premium of 42%;</u>** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•  **<u>For the 10 of such transactions announced during 2020, a median premium of 56%;</u>** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•  **<u>For the 22 of such transactions announced during 2021, a median premium of 23%;</u>** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•  **<u>For the 24 of such transactions announced during 2022, a median premium of 29%;</u>** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•  **<u>For the 16 of such transactions announced during 2023, a median premium of 56%;</u>** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•  **<u>For the 19 of such transactions announced during 2024, a median premium of 29%; and</u>** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;•  **<u>For the 14 of such transactions reported through September 25, 2025, a median premium of 31%.</u>** 

This analysis indicated a median premium of 32% across the period. This analysis also indicated a 25<sup>th</sup> percentile premium of 20% and 75<sup>th</sup> percentile premium of 51% across the period. Using this analysis, Goldman Sachs applied a reference range of illustrative premiums of 20% to 51% to the undisturbed closing price per share of Company common stock of $168.32 as of September 25, 2025 and calculated a range of implied equity values per share of Company common stock of $203 to $255.

Goldman Sachs also reviewed and analyzed, using publicly available information **published by FactSet as of September 25, 2025**, the acquisition premia for all-cash acquisition transactions announced from January 1, 2019 through September 25, 2025 involving a public company based in the United States as the target where the disclosed enterprise values for the transaction were greater than or equal to $500 million**, representing a total of approximately 480 transactions**. For the entire period, using **such** publicly available information, Goldman Sachs calculated the median, 25<sup>th</sup> percentile and 75<sup>th</sup> percentile premiums of the price paid in the approximately 480 transactions relative to the target's highest closing price in the 52-week period prior to announcement of the transaction. This analysis indicated a median premium of 6% across the period. This analysis also indicated a 25<sup>th</sup> percentile premium of (9)% and 75<sup>th</sup> percentile premium of 22% across the period. Using this analysis, Goldman Sachs applied a reference range of illustrative premiums of (9)% to 22% to the 52-week high closing price per share of Company common stock of $179.01 (August 14, 2025) prior to September 25, 2025 and calculated a range of implied equity values per share of Company common stock of $163 to $218.

#### The section of the Definitive Proxy Statement entitled "The Merger—Potential Employment Arrangements with Parent" starting on page 56 is hereby supplemented as follows:
*The last full paragraph on page 56 is amended and restated as follows:*

Any of the Company's executive officers who become officers or employees or who otherwise are retained to provide services to Parent or the surviving corporation may, before, on, or following the closing, enter into new individualized compensation arrangements with Parent or the surviving corporation and may participate in cash or equity incentive or other benefit plans maintained by Parent or the surviving corporation. **None of the Consortium's proposals or indications of interest in pursuing a Transaction referred to in the section entitled "*The Merger—Background of the Merger"* included proposals with respect to the terms on which senior management of the Company would be employed by Parent. Parent and the Company currently intend that, following the closing of the Transaction, most or all of the Company's current senior management team will continue to lead the surviving corporation.** As of the date of this proxy statement, no new individualized compensation arrangements between the Company's executive officers and Parent or the surviving corporation have been established.

------

#### The section of the Definitive Proxy Statement entitled "The Merger—Certain Other Relationships" on page 58 is hereby supplemented as follows:
*The fourth bullet on page 58 is amended and restated as follows:*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Andrew Wilson served as a special advisor to Silver Lake from December 11, 2024 to September 12, 2025, pursuant to an engagement approved by the Board. Under the engagement, Mr. Wilson received an annual retainer fee of $250,000, paid in
 monthly increments, and participation rights in certain Silver Lake funds. The engagement was terminated on September 12, 2025. Mr. Wilson also maintains a social relationship with certain senior representatives of Silver Lake **, <u>including with Egon Durban.</u>**
