    Item 1.01
    Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

    Agreement and Plan of Merger

    On September 28, 2025, Electronic Arts Inc. (“Electronic Arts” or the “Company”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) by and among the Company, Oak-Eagle AcquireCo, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), and Oak-Eagle MergerCo, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”) pursuant to which the Company is to be acquired by an investor consortium comprised of The Public Investment Fund (“PIF”), private investment funds affiliated with Silver Lake Group, L.L.C. (“Silver Lake”) and private investment funds affiliated with Affinity Partners (“Affinity,” and, together with PIF and Silver Lake, the “Consortium”).

    Merger

    On the terms and subject to the conditions of the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company (the “Merger”), with the Company surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of Parent.

    Merger Consideration

    At the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), each issued and outstanding share of common stock of the Company, par value $0.01 per share (the “Company Common Stock”) (other than (i) shares of Company Common Stock that, immediately prior to the Effective Time, are owned by the Company and not held on behalf of third parties, (ii) shares of Company Common Stock that are owned by Parent or Merger Sub, in each case immediately prior to the Effective Time and (iii) shares of Company Common Stock that are issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and that are held by stockholders who have properly demanded appraisal of such shares of Company Common Stock pursuant to Section 262 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware) will be converted into the right to receive $210 per share in cash, without interest (the “Merger Consideration”).

    The Merger Agreement provides that, at the Effective Time, (i) each outstanding vested stock option will be converted into the right to receive, for each share of Company Common Stock subject to such option, the excess, if any, of the Merger Consideration over the per share exercise price; (ii) each outstanding compensatory restricted stock unit (“RSU”) that is vested or held by a non-employee director of the Company shall be converted into the right to receive, for each share of Company Common Stock subject to such RSU, the Merger Consideration, and (iii) each outstanding unvested stock option and each outstanding unvested RSU will be converted into a corresponding restricted cash award based on the Merger Consideration, subject to the same terms and conditions as applied to such awards immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than the performance conditions), with any performance goals with an incomplete performance period or for which performance has not been certified as of immediately prior to the Effective Time deemed to be earned at the greater of target and the actual performance measured through the latest practicable date prior to the Effective Time.

    Board Recommendation

    The board of directors of the Company (the “Board”) has, by unanimous vote of the directors voting, approved the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby and, subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Merger Agreement, resolved to recommend that the Company’s stockholders approve the adoption of the Merger Agreement.  The stockholders of the Company will be asked to vote on the adoption of the Merger Agreement at a stockholder meeting that will be held on a date, and at a time and place, to be announced.

    Delisting

    If the Merger is consummated, the Company Common Stock will be delisted from the NASDAQ Stock Market and deregistered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”).


    Conditions to the Merger

    The completion of the Merger is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain customary conditions, including (a) the adoption of the Merger Agreement by holders of a majority of the aggregate voting power of the outstanding shares of Company Common Stock entitled to vote thereon, (b) the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended, and the receipt of certain other specified regulatory approvals, including other applicable U.S. and foreign antitrust approvals, approval by the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS), and approval under foreign investment reviews, and (c) the absence of any law or order by specified governmental authorities enjoining or otherwise prohibiting consummation of the Merger.  The obligation of each party to consummate the Merger is also conditioned upon the accuracy of the other party’s representations and warranties (subject, in certain cases, to certain materiality exceptions) and the compliance in all material respects by the other party of its obligations under the Merger Agreement.  The consummation of the Merger is not subject to any financing condition.

    Termination Fees

    The Merger Agreement contains certain termination fees payable by Parent or the Company in certain circumstances.

    The Company will be required to pay a termination fee to Parent equal to $1 billion if:


    •
    the Merger Agreement is terminated by Parent as a result of a change of recommendation by the Board,


    •
    the Merger Agreement is terminated by the Company in order to enter into a Superior Proposal (provided that the termination fee payable by the Company will be reduced to $540 million if the Superior Proposal is made within the 45-day period following the date of the Merger Agreement and the termination occurs within the 75-day period following the date of the Merger Agreement), or


    •
    the Merger Agreement is terminated by either party as a result of the Company’s stockholders failure to approve the Merger, and prior to the Company’s stockholder meeting, an acquisition proposal was made publicly or announced and the Company enters into an agreement for, or consummates, an alternative acquisition transaction within 12 months of such termination.

    Parent will be required to pay a termination fee to the Company equal to $1 billion if:


    •
    the Merger Agreement is terminated by either party (1) as a result of reaching the outside date (which is September 28, 2026, but is subject to extension in certain circumstances), and, at the time of such termination, the closing conditions relating to the receipt of required regulatory approvals have not been satisfied and the other closing conditions are satisfied or capable of being satisfied or (2) as a result of an illegality relating to a regulatory law prohibiting the closing from occurring, or


    •
    the Merger Agreement is terminated by the Company as a result of Parent’s willful and material breach or its failure to close when required to close.

    Financing

    Parent has obtained equity and debt financing commitments for the purpose of financing the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement. PIF, certain private investment funds affiliated with Silver Lake and certain private investment funds affiliated with Affinity have severally committed to capitalize Parent at the closing of the Merger with equity financing for the transaction, subject to the conditions set forth in certain equity commitment letters.

    In addition, PIF, private investment funds affiliated with Silver Lake and private investment funds affiliated with Affinity have guaranteed their respective portion of certain payments, including payment of the termination fee payable by Parent under certain circumstances pursuant to the Merger Agreement, as well as certain indemnification and reimbursement obligations that may be owed by Parent pursuant to the Merger Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement and the limited guarantees provided.


    Pursuant to a debt commitment letter, certain financing sources have committed to Parent to provide it with $20 billion of debt financing to fund in part, the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement. The obligations of the lenders to provide debt financing under the debt commitment letter are subject to the satisfaction (or waiver) of certain closing conditions described in the debt commitment letter.

    Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Company is required to use reasonable best efforts to provide Parent with customary cooperation in connection with the debt financing.

    Other Terms of the Merger Agreement

    The Company has made customary representations, warranties and covenants in the Merger Agreement, including, among others, covenants to use commercially reasonable efforts to conduct its business in the ordinary course during the period between the date of the Merger Agreement and the closing of the Merger.  The parties have agreed to use reasonable best efforts to take all actions necessary, proper or advisable under applicable laws to consummate the Merger, including cooperating to obtain the regulatory approvals necessary to complete the Merger.

    The Company will be subject to certain restrictions on its ability to solicit alternative acquisition proposals from third parties, engage in discussions with third parties regarding alternative acquisition proposals and change its recommendation that stockholders vote in favor of the Merger. In the event the Company receives an unsolicited acquisition proposal from a third party that the Board determines in good faith constitutes or is reasonably likely to result in a Superior Proposal, the Company may engage in discussions with a third party that has made such a proposal.

    Voting, Support and Rollover Agreement; Voting and Support Agreements

    Concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement, PIF entered into a voting, support and rollover agreement with the Company and Parent, dated as of the date of the Merger Agreement (the “Support and Rollover Agreement”), pursuant to which, among other things, PIF has agreed (a) to support and vote for the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and (b) to contribute the shares of Company Common Stock owned by PIF to Parent, in exchange for equity of a newly formed holding entity of Parent.  The Support and Rollover Agreement terminates upon the earlier to occur of (i) the Effective Time and (ii) the valid termination of the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms.

    In addition, certain directors and officers of the Company (the “Supporting Stockholders”) entered voting and support agreements, dated as of the date of the Merger Agreement (the “Voting Agreements”), pursuant to which, among other things, each such Supporting Stockholder has agreed to support and vote for the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement. The Voting Agreements terminate upon the earlier to occur of (i) the Effective Time, (ii) the valid termination of the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms and (iii) a change of recommendation by the Board.

    The foregoing description of the Merger Agreement, the Support and Rollover Agreement and the Voting Agreements does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the Merger Agreement, the Support and Rollover Agreement and the Voting Agreements, copies of which are filed as Exhibits 2.1, 10.1 and 10.2 hereto respectively and are incorporated herein by reference. The Merger Agreement, the Support and Rollover Agreement, the Voting Agreements and the above descriptions have been included to provide investors with information regarding their terms.  They are not intended to provide any other factual information about the Company, Parent, Merger Sub, PIF, the Supporting Stockholders or their respective affiliates.  The representations, warranties and covenants contained in the Merger Agreement, the Support and Rollover Agreement and the Voting Agreements were made only for the purposes of the applicable agreement, as of the specific dates therein, were solely for the benefit of the parties to such agreements, may be subject to limitations agreed upon by the contracting parties, including being qualified by confidential disclosures made for the purposes of allocating contractual risk among the parties to such agreements instead of establishing these matters as facts, and may be subject to standards of materiality applicable to the contracting parties that differ from those applicable to investors.  Investors should not rely on the representations, warranties and covenants or any descriptions thereof as characterizations of the actual state of facts or condition of the parties thereto or any of their respective subsidiaries or affiliates.  Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of representations and warranties may change after the date of such agreements, which subsequent information may or may not be reflected in the Company’s public disclosures.  The Merger Agreement, the Support and Rollover Agreement and the Voting Agreements should not be read alone, but should instead be read in conjunction with the other information regarding the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement that will be contained in or attached as an annex to the proxy statement that the Company will file in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, as well as in the other filings that the Company will make with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).
