(d) On June 16, 2011, upon the recommendation of the Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of CEC Entertainment, Inc. (the “Company”) appointed Bruce M. “Smokey” Swenson to the Board as a director effective immediately. Mr. Swenson will fill the vacancy that was created by the retirement of Larry T. McDowell and his term as a director will expire at the 2013 annual meeting of the Company’s stockholders. Mr. Swenson was also appointed by the Board to serve as Chairman of the Audit Committee and as a member of the Nominating/Corporate Governance Committee.

There is no arrangement or understanding between Mr. Swenson and any other persons pursuant to which Mr. Swenson was selected as a director. There are no transactions involving Mr. Swenson requiring disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.

In connection with his service as a director, Mr. Swenson will receive the Company’s standard non-employee director cash and equity compensation. Mr. Swenson will receive a pro rata portion of the $20,000 annual retainer for his service through the remaining portion of the year, $3,000 per regularly scheduled Board meeting for attendance in person or telephonically, $2,500 per specially called meeting of the Board for which attendance is requested in person or telephonically, and $1,250 per specially called committee meeting for which attendance is requested in person or telephonically. Mr. Swenson will also receive a pro rata portion of the $10,000 retainer for his service as Audit Committee Chair through the remaining portion of the year.

Upon his appointment, pursuant to the Board’s equity grant policy for non-employee directors under the Company’s Second Amended and Restated Non-Employee Directors Restricted Stock Plan (the “Plan”), Mr. Swenson received an initial non-employee director restricted stock award for the number of shares of common stock having the fair market value (as defined in the Plan) as of the date of grant equal to $100,000 multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days until the date of the next annual grant to non-employee directors and the denominator of which is 365. Subject to certain exceptions set forth in the Plan, the restricted stock award will vest in four equal annual installments upon the first, second, third and fourth anniversary of the grant date.
