SECTION 16(A) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE
Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our directors and executive officers, and persons who own more
than ten percent of a registered class of our equity securities, to file with the SEC initial reports of ownership and
reports of changes in ownership of Class A common stock and other equity securities of LeapFrog. Officers,
directors and greater than ten percent stockholders are required by SEC regulation to furnish us with copies of all
Section 16(a) forms they file.
To our knowledge, except as follows, based solely on a review of the copies of such reports furnished to us
and written representations that no other reports were required, during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2009
all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to our officers, directors and greater than ten percent beneficial
owners were filed in a timely manner. On May 19, 2009, Paul T. Marinelli filed a beneficial ownership report on
Form 4 disclosing an automatic grant of a stock option to purchase Class A common stock granted to
Mr. Marinelli on May 15, 2009. In addition, on September 1, 2009, Thomas J. Kalinske, E. Stanton McKee, Jr.,
Stanley E. Maron, Caden Wang, David Nagel, William B. Chiasson, Michael J. Dodd, William K. Campbell,
Nancy G. MacIntyre, Peter M. O. Wong and Mark A. Etnyre filed beneficial ownership reports on Form 4
disclosing the cancellation of options and issuance of new options in the stock option exchange program effective
August 27, 2009. For all such filings, the individuals delegated to us the responsibility to file the reports on their
behalf and the filings were late due to logistical difficulties.
HOUSEHOLDING OF PROXY MATERIALS
The SEC has adopted rules that permit companies and intermediaries (e.g., brokers) to satisfy the delivery
requirements for proxy statements and annual reports, including Notices of Internet Availability of Proxy
Materials, with respect to two or more stockholders sharing the same address by delivering a single Notice of
Internet Availability of Proxy Materials or other proxy materials addressed to those stockholders. This process,
which is commonly referred to as “householding,” potentially means extra convenience for stockholders and cost
savings for companies.
This year, a number of brokers with account holders who are LeapFrog stockholders will be “householding”
our proxy materials. A single Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials or other proxy materials may be
delivered to multiple stockholders sharing an address unless contrary instructions have been received from the
affected stockholders. Once you have received notice from your broker that they will be “householding”
communications to your address, “householding” will continue until you are notified otherwise or you submit
contrary instructions. If, at any time, you no longer wish to participate in “householding” and would prefer to
receive a separate Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials or other proxy materials, you may: (1) notify
your broker; (2) direct your written request to our Director of Investor Relations, 6401 Hollis Street, Emeryville,
California 94608 or to [email protected] or (3) contact our Investor Relations department at [phone].
Stockholders who currently receive multiple copies of the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials or
other proxy materials at their addresses and would like to request “householding” of their communications
should contact their brokers. In addition, we will promptly deliver, upon written or oral request to the address or
telephone number above, a separate copy of the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials to a
stockholder at a shared address to which a single copy of the documents was delivered.
