If you are the shareholder of record as of the Record Date, you are entitled to the current dividend. To qualify as such, you would have had to make your share purchase(s) on or prior to April 13, 2021. If you purchased your shares on or after April 14, 2021, you are not entitled to the current dividend.

If you own your shares in your name as a registered shareholder with Activision Blizzard's transfer agent, Broadridge Corporate Issuer Solutions, the dividend is payable to you either by physical check or via Direct Deposit. If you have not previously elected to receive dividend payments by Direct Deposit but would like to do so, please complete the Direct Deposit Authorization Form (available here) or contact Broadridge toll free by dialing 866-804-4314. Broadridge’s representatives will be available to assist you from 9:00 am until 6:00 pm, Eastern Time, from Monday through Friday. In order to receive the dividend being paid on May 6, 2021 via Direct Deposit, you must complete and submitted the needed paperwork by March 18, 2021. If you own your shares through a broker/dealer in "street name," you will receive your cash dividend through your broker/dealer. Please contact your broker/dealer to get specific information on how you will receive your dividend.

If you are unsure of which of these categories apply to you, please contact Activision Blizzard Investor Relations via email at ir@activision.com or by phone at 310-255-2000.

Direct Registration is a method of recording shares of stock for registered shareholders in book-entry form. Brokers already use a book-entry form of ownership. Direct Registration book-entry means that your security is registered in your name on the books of Activision Blizzard's transfer agent, Broadridge Corporate Issuer Solutions, without the need for a physical certificate. Shares held in book-entry form have all the traditional rights and privileges as shares held in certificate form. If you are a shareholder of record and are interested in holding your shares via Direct Registration, please contact Broadridge toll free by dialing 800-685-4509, or by visiting their website at http://www.shareholder.broadridge.com/atvi/. Broadridge’s representatives will be available to assist you from 9:00 am until 6:00 pm, Eastern Time, from Monday through Friday.

We are unable to provide tax advice. Each shareholder should consult a tax advisor as to the particular consequences of the cash dividend to such shareholder under U.S. federal, state and local, and/or foreign tax laws.
