Director Selection Process
Director Selection and Refreshment
The Corporate Governance Committee will consider nominees recommended by shareholders, provided that the
recommendation contains sufficient information for the committee to assess the suitability of the candidate and such nomination
complies with the Company’s bylaws. Candidates recommended by shareholders that comply with these procedures will
receive the same consideration that candidates recommended by the committee receive.

DIRECTOR SELECTION AND REFRESHMENT
When selecting directors, the Board of Directors reviews and considers many factors, including experience, business
understanding, achievement, available time, skills and independence. It also will consider ethical standards, integrity and any
conflict of interest. It considers recommendations primarily from shareholders of the Company and from members of the Board
of Directors and management. The Corporate Governance Committee conducts interviews with candidates who meet the
criteria of the Board of Directors and has full discretion in considering its nominations to the Board of Directors. The Board of
Directors adopted Corporate Governance Guidelines, which include criteria to assess the suitability of candidates for the Board
of Directors. These Corporate Governance Guidelines are posted under the “Conduct” tab on the Company’s website at
“www.take2games.com”.
Independent Directors
The Board of Directors has determined that Messrs. Dornemann, Gordon, Hernandez, Moses, Sheresky and Viera and Mses.
Siminoff, Srinivasan and Tolson are “independent” directors, and that Mr. Zelnick is not an “independent” director, in each case
as defined under the rules of The Nasdaq Stock Market. With respect to Mr. Gordon, at the time he joined the Board of
Directors in May of 2022, the Board of Directors determined he was not an “independent” director under the rules of The
Nasdaq Stock Market as a result of a pre-existing consulting services agreement between Zynga Inc. and Mr. Gordon. Because
this consulting services agreement was terminated effective as of June 15, 2022, which is more than three years ago, the
Board of Directors has now determined that Mr. Gordon currently qualifies as an “independent” director under the rules of The
Nasdaq Stock Market effective as of June 15, 2025. During fiscal 2025, the independent directors met in executive session
(outside the presence of management) on nine occasions.
Board Composition and Refreshment
The Board of Directors routinely reviews the composition of the Board and believes that it benefits from having a group of
directors with a wide range of viewpoints, including based on experience, backgrounds and other factors. The Board has taken
a deliberate approach to refreshment, with new directors joining in four of the prior eight years and five of our 10 director
nominees having served for eight years or less.
On an annual basis, the Corporate Governance Committee conducts a succession planning and refreshment review that covers
the Board of Directors, the Company’s executive officers and, in conjunction with the Company’s Chief Human Resources
Officer, a review of succession planning throughout the organization. Further information relating to our management
succession planning process is set forth below under “Management Development and Succession Planning” As a result of its
regular succession planning and refreshment reviews, the Board of Directors has made, and will make, the following changes
to the composition of the committees of the Board of Directors since fiscal 2024:
| Fiscal 2024 | Fiscal 2025 | Fiscal 2026 |
| •In September 2023, Ms. Srinivasan succeeded Mr. Dornemann as our Lead Independent Director, was appointed to serve as the Chair of the Executive Committee, and rotated off the Corporate Governance Committee. •Also at that time, Ms. Siminoff joined the Corporate Governance Committee. | •Effective on October 1, 2024, Mr. Dornemann rotated off the Corporate Governance and Audit Committees. •Also at that time, Mr. Sheresky rotated off the Executive Committee. | •Effective after this year’s Annual Meeting, Mr. Moses will rotate off the Compensation Committee and step down as Chair of the Corporate Governance Committee, but remain as a member of such committee.•Also at that time, Mr. Hernandez will join the Corporate Governance Committee and will serve as the new Chair of such committee, and Mr. Sheresky will rotate off the Corporate Governance Committee. |

ATTENDANCE AT SHAREHOLDER MEETINGS
Board Assessment Process
The Board of Directors and its committees conduct annual self-evaluations that include both the completion of a questionnaire
as well as biennial individual interviews of each director by an outside third party. These evaluations are utilized by the Board
and each committee to improve communication, strategy, and effectiveness, and to identify possible improvements that can be
made to the performance and composition of the Board and each of its committees. The Corporate Governance Committee
assists the Board of Directors in its review and reports to the full Board regarding its findings and recommendations, which are
considered and implemented as appropriate. Furthermore, the Compensation Committee performs an annual performance
review of the Chairman/CEO and other named executive officers and reports its findings to the full Board of Directors.
