EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

On February 7, 2018, Activision Blizzard, Inc. (the “Company”) filed a Current Report on Form 8-K (the “Prior Report”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission to report, among other things, that the Board of Directors of the Company amended and restated the Company’s bylaws on February 1, 2018 to implement proxy access.  This Amendment No. 1 on Form 8-K/A is being filed because an incorrect version of the amended bylaws was inadvertently filed with the Prior Report.  Filed with this Amendment No. 1 on Form 8-K/A is the correct version of the amended bylaws. This Form 8-K/A does not otherwise modify or update any disclosure contained in the Prior Report.
