| Item 1.01 | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement |
On November 18, 2013, Take-Two Interactive Software, Inc. (the “Company”), following the approval of its Board of Directors, entered into an amendment (the “Amendment”) to the Non-Qualified Stock Option Agreement, dated August 27, 2007 (the “Option Agreement”), by and between the Company and ZelnickMedia Corporation (“ZelnickMedia”). Pursuant to the Option Agreement, and in connection with the Company’s Management Agreement with ZelnickMedia, in August 2007, the Company issued stock options to ZelnickMedia to acquire 2,009,075 shares of the Company’s common stock at an exercise price of $14.74 per share, which vested over 36 months and expire 10 years from the date of grant. All of the stock options are currently outstanding.
The Amendment permits ZelnickMedia to exercise the stock options under the Option Agreement on a “net exercise” basis by directing the Company to withhold a number of shares having a fair market value equal to aggregate exercise price. A net exercise of the ZelnickMedia options will result in less dilution to the market. The foregoing summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Amendment, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated in this Item 1.01 by reference.
