Introductory Note
On June 17, 2011, GSI Commerce, Inc. (GSI), a Delaware corporation, completed its merger (the
Merger) with Gibraltar Acquisition Corp. (Merger Sub), a wholly-owned subsidiary of eBay Inc.
(eBay), pursuant to the terms of the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of March 27, 2011
(the Merger Agreement), among GSI, eBay and Merger Sub. As a result of the Merger, GSI is now
wholly owned by eBay.
Item 3.01 | Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule of Standard; Transfer of Listing |
As contemplated by the Merger Agreement, on June 17, 2011, GSI notified the NASDAQ Stock
Market (NASDAQ) of GSIs intent to remove its Common Stock from listing on NASDAQ and
requested that the NASDAQ file with the Securities and Exchange Commission an application on Form
25 to report that the shares of Common Stock are no longer listed on NASDAQ.
Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders
On June 17, 2011, GSI held a Special Meeting of Stockholders to consider and vote on a
proposal to adopt the Merger Agreement. Adoption of the Merger Agreement required the affirmative
vote of the holders of at least a majority of the shares of GSIs Common Stock outstanding at the
close of business on May 9, 2011, the record date. The votes in favor of the adoption of the
Merger Agreement represented 80.12% of the outstanding shares of GSI Common Stock as of the record
date. The stockholders of GSI also voted to approve the proposal to adjourn the special meeting,
if necessary or appropriate, to solicit additional proxies. This proposal to adjourn the special
meeting to a later date was not implemented because the proposal to adopt the Merger Agreement was
approved by the stockholders of GSI.
Set forth below, with respect to each such proposal, are the number of votes cast for or against,
the number of abstentions and the number of broker non-votes.

limited liability company wholly-owned by GSIs former Chairman, President and Chief Executive
Officer, Mr. Michael Rubin, (Purchaser), completed the previously announced acquisition whereby
