well EventArgs does not have any useful information so you wouldn't need to check if its null or not as you would never use the reference

Can i assign some string or integer to EventArgs?

class MyEventArgs : EventArgs
{
    string name;
    public string Name { get { return name; } }

    public MyEventArgs(string name)
    {
        this.name = name;
    }

    public static implicit operator MyEventArgs(string str)
    {
        return new MyEventArgs(str);

class Program

    static void Main(string[] args)
