ELECTRONIC ARTS INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
DESCRIPTION OF REGISTRANT'S FISCAL YEAR 2001
EXECUTIVE BONUS PLAN
Target annual bonuses are set for each executive based upon a percentage of base
salary. Bonuses are generally paid in two parts, one of which relates only to
the Company's earnings results, and the second part is discretionary and is
measured against each individual executive's contributions. Some executives may
have a third part which relates to a specific business unit's or product's
financial performance achievement. Bonuses are paid after the end of the fiscal
year. If profits in any period are less than 85% of plan, no bonus based on the
Company's performance is paid for that period. If profits exceed plan during a
period, the bonus rate is accelerated for the incremental profits above plan,
with a maximum of 200% payout of the bonus target.
