        <footnote id="F1">The Restricted Stock Units (&quot;RSUs&quot; or &quot;Units&quot;) were granted on February 5, 2024 pursuant to the Mattel, Inc. Amended and Restated 2010 Equity and Long-Term Compensation Plan, as amended (the &quot;Plan&quot;). Each Unit represents a contingent right to receive one share of Mattel, Inc. Common Stock (or, at the election of Mattel, Inc., a cash amount equal to the fair market value of such share). The RSUs are accompanied by dividend equivalent rights.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F2">The RSUs are fully vested on the date of grant. Vested RSUs generally will be settled on the third anniversary of the date of grant. On the settlement date, for each vested RSU, the Reporting Person will receive one share of Common Stock (or, at the election of Mattel, Inc., a cash amount equal to the fair market value of one share of Common Stock on the settlement date).</footnote>
