Item 8.01. Other Events
 
Take-Two Interactive Software, Inc. (the “Company”) received two virtually identical complaints filed by the same law firm for purported class actions against the Company and its subsidiary, Rockstar Games, Inc. (“Rockstar”), which were filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. The plaintiffs, alleged purchasers of the Company’s Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas game, allege that the Company and Rockstar engaged in consumer deception, false advertising and common law fraud and were unjustly enriched as a result of the alleged failure of the Company and Rockstar to disclose that Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas contained “hidden” content, which resulted in the game receiving a Mature 17+ (“M”) rating from the Entertainment Software Rating Board rather than an Adults Only 18+ (“AO”) rating.
 
The complaints seek unspecified damages, declarations of various violations of law and litigation costs.  The Company believes the complaints are without merit and intends to vigorously defend and seek dismissals of these actions.
