Item 5.  Other Events.

     Activision, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Activision" or the "Company"),
and Treyarch Invention LLC, a California limited liability company ("Treyarch"),
entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger on September 28, 2001, whereby
Treyarch merged with and into Treyarch Acquisition, Inc., a Delaware corporation
and wholly owned subsidiary of Activision. Treyarch was a privately held console
software developer based in Santa Monica, California.

     Pursuant to the merger, which was effective on October 1, 2001, Treyarch
became a wholly owned subsidiary of Activision. Treyarch equity holders and
employees received 545,974 shares of Activision common stock in connection
with the acquisition. Up to 224,077 additional shares of Activision common stock
also may be issued to Treyarch's equity holders and employees over the course of
several years depending on the satisfaction of certain performance requirements
and other criteria. The transaction was structured as a tax-free reorganization
and will be accounted for under the purchase accounting rules.

     The shares of common stock were issued to Treyarch equity holders and
employees pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act of
1933, as amended. The Company is required to use its reasonable best efforts to
file with the Securities and Exchange Commission, as soon as practicable, a
registration statement covering such shares for resale by the holders thereof.
