(1)   Percentages are based on 25,540,813 shares of common stock that were
      issued and outstanding as of February 10, 2000.

          The Company entered into an agreement and plan of reorganization
(the "Merger Agreement") with Neversoft Entertainment and Joel Jewett,
Michael West and Christopher Ward, who were the sole shareholders of
Neversoft.  The transaction contemplated by the Merger Agreement was
consummated on September 30, 1999.

          In order to ensure that the representations, warranties and
covenants made by the former Neversoft stockholders under the Merger
Agreement are not breached, and in order to provide a source of
indemnification to Activision pursuant to such agreement, each of the former
Neversoft stockholders deposited in escrow pursuant to a warranty escrow
agreement ten percent (10%) of the total number of shares of Common Stock
issued to such stockholder in connection with the transaction, an aggregate
of 69,885 shares of Common Stock, to be held until the earlier of (i)
September 30, 2000, (ii) the date on which Activision's auditors complete
their first fiscal year end audit of financial statements containing combined
operations of Activision's and Neversoft's businesses, or (iii) the date set
forth in a joint written direction executed by Activision and the former
Neversoft stockholders.

          Prior to the acquisition of Neversoft by Activision, Neversoft was
party to various development agreements with Activision.  Other than such
contracts and the fact that the selling stockholders are employees of
Neversoft, which became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company in September
1999 pursuant to the Merger Agreement, none of the selling stockholders has
had a material relationship with the Company within past three years.
