EA Amends Take-Two Tender Offer and Extends Expiration Date to April 18, 2008



    Electronic Arts Inc. ("EA") (NASDAQ:ERTS) today announced that it
    is amending its tender offer for all of the currently outstanding
    shares of common stock of Take-Two Interactive Software, Inc.
    ("Take-Two") (NASDAQ:TTWO). The amendments are in light of the actions
    publicly disclosed by Take-Two on March 26, 2008, including its
    adoption of a poison pill and change to the date of its 2008 annual
    meeting of stockholders to April 17.

    The principal amendments to the offer include:

    -- EA has added a condition to its offer requiring either (1)
    that Take-Two´s Board of Directors redeem the preferred stock
    purchase rights issued as a result of Take-Two´s adoption on
    March 24, 2008 of the stockholder rights plan, or (2) that EA
    be satisfied that such rights have been invalidated or are
    otherwise inapplicable to its acquisition of Take-Two.

    -- EA has extended its tender offer for all of the common stock
    of Take-Two until 11:59 p.m., New York City time on Wednesday,
    April 18, 2008, unless further extended. The offer was
    previously set to expire at midnight, New York City time, on
    April 11, 2008.

    "The actions of the Take-Two Board may increase the risk for their
    stockholders by delaying a potential transaction," said Owen Mahoney,
    Senior Vice President of Corporate Development at EA. "We continue to
    believe that our $26.00 per share offer price is full and fair, and
    that a transaction between Take-Two and EA is the most compelling
    combination financially, strategically and operationally for all
    parties."

    EA commenced on March 13, 2008 its all-cash tender offer to
    purchase Take-Two shares for $26.00 per share, which represents a 64%
    premium over Take-Two´s closing stock price on February 15, the last
    trading day before EA sent its revised proposal to Take-Two.

    As of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on Thursday, March 27, 2008,
    approximately 5,000 shares of Take-Two had been tendered in and not
    withdrawn from the tender offer.
