Dear Gerhard

As you are aware Electronic Arts (“EA”) is seeking to establish a European operation based in Geneva to be run by a new Electronic Arts Swiss company (“EA Swiss Co”). EA Swiss Co will be offering certain employees employment in Geneva.

In connection with the establishment of EA Swiss Co’s European operation, EA is proposing that certain functions might be terminated at Electronic Arts Limited (“EA Ltd”) and certain comparable functions will be created at EA Swiss Co. The principal economic terms upon which it is proposed you would be relocated to Geneva are set out below.

Appendix A

This details certain terms of the proposed Transfer Offer, including the following:

• Your job title

• Your gross annual salary and target bonus

• Your gross annual car cash allowance

• Benefits

• All other payments or assistance to be given to you to help with the relocation

• Provisions relating to termination of employment

• An example of the form of acceptance of the terms which you need to sign if you wish to accept the offer when you have made your decision.

If you are unable to, or choose not to relocate to Geneva, and after full consultation and a search for alternative roles, there is no alternative role; your role is likely to be redundant. Attached at Appendix B are the terms of the compensation you would receive if those circumstances were to arise.

Appendix B

This includes the following:
