GME 2018 Proxy Statement

Annual Board Evaluation Process The Board recognizes that a robust and constructive evaluation process is an essential part of good corporate governance and board effectiveness. The evaluation processes utilized by the Board are designed and implemented under the direction of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and aim to assess Board and committee effectiveness as well as individual Director performance and contribution levels. The Corporate Governance Committee and full Board consider the results of the annual evaluations in connection with their review of Director nominees to ensure the Board continues to operate effectively. Each year our Directors complete governance questionnaires and self-assessments. These questionnaires and assessments, and feedback from discussions between members of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and individual Directors, facilitate a candid assessment of: (i) the Board’s performance in areas such as business strategy, risk oversight, talent development and succession planning and corporate governance; (ii) the Board’s structure, composition and culture; and (iii) the mix of skills, qualifications and experiences of our Directors. 16 | 2018 Proxy Statement Corporate Governance Codes of Ethics The Company has adopted a Code of Ethics for Senior Financial and Executive Officers that is applicable to the Company’s Executive Chairman, Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operating Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Accounting Officer, and any Executive Vice President of the Company or Vice President of the Company employed in a finance or accounting role. The Company also has adopted a Code of Standards, Ethics and Conduct applicable to all of the Company’s management-level employees and non-employee directors. The Code of Ethics for Senior Financial and Executive Officers and the Code of Standards, Ethics and Conduct are available on the Company’s website at http://investor.gamestop.com and are available in print to any stockholder who requests them in writing to the Company’s Secretary, GameStop Corp., 625 Westport Parkway, Grapevine, Texas 76051.

Claw-back Policy The Company has adopted a claw-back policy which requires the Board, when permitted by law, to require reimbursement of annual incentive payments or long-term incentive payments from a current or former executive officer of the Company where the payment was predicated upon achieving certain financial results or other operating metrics, and either (1) the Board determines in its good faith judgment that such financial results or other operating metrics were achieved in whole or part as a result of fraud or other misconduct on the part of such executive, or fraud or other misconduct of other employees of the Company of which such executive had knowledge, whether or not such conduct results in any restatement of Company financial statements filed with the SEC, or (2) such financial results or other operating metrics were the subject of a restatement of Company financial statements filed with the SEC, and a lower payment would have been made to the executive officer based upon the restated financial results. The Company will, to the fullest extent possible under applicable law, seek to recover from the individual executive officer, in the case of (1), the full amount of the individual executive officer’s incentive payments for the relevant period (including, at a minimum, for the three-year period prior to such financial results), and in the case of (2), the amount by which the individual executive officer’s incentive payments for the relevant period (including, at a minimum, for the three- year period prior to the restatement of financial results) exceeded the lower payment that would have been made based on the restated financial results. Equity Ownership Policy The Board believes that it is important for each executive officer and non-employee director of the Company to have a financial stake in the Company to help align the executive officer’s and non-employee director’s interests with those of the Company’s stockholders. To that end, the Company has an equity ownership policy requiring that each executive officer and non-employee director of the Company maintain ownership of common stock with a value of at least the following: Executive Officer or Non-employee Director Fiscal 2017 Stock Ownership Guidelines Executive Chairman 5 times base salary Chief Executive Officer 5 times base salary Chief Operating Officer or Executive Vice President 3 times base salary Non-employee Director $275,000 New executive officers or non-employee directors of the Company will be given a period of five (5) years to attain full compliance with these requirements. These requirements will be reduced by 50% for executive officers after the executive officer reaches the age of 62 in order to facilitate appropriate financial planning.
