<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">On May 15, 2020, JAKKS Pacific, Inc. (the &ldquo;Company&rdquo;)
received written notice from the Listing Qualifications Staff of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (&ldquo;Nasdaq&rdquo;) notifying the
Company that the Company is required to maintain a minimum of $10,000,000 in stockholders&rsquo; equity for continued listing and
because the Company&rsquo;s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2020, reported stockholders&rsquo; equity
of $(9,838,000), the Company no longer complies with Nasdaq&rsquo;s Listing Rules (the &ldquo;May 15 Letter&rdquo;). The Company
has until November 11, 2020 to cure this deficiency and/or meet any of Nasdaq&rsquo;s other alternative continuing qualification
criteria.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; background-color: white">As previously reported, on December
26, 2019 the Company received written notice from Nasdaq that its common shares were subject to delisting from The Nasdaq Global
Select Market and were scheduled to be delisted on January 6, 2020 because its common shares, par value $.001, closed below the
$1.00 per share minimum bid price required by Nasdaq Listing Rule 5450(a)(1) for 30 consecutive business days. The Company appealed
the delisting determination to a Hearings Panel (the &ldquo;Panel&rdquo;) and the Panel granted the Company an extension until
June 23, 2020 (which period has since been extended to September 7, 2020) to meet the required minimum bid price, based, at least
in part, upon the Company&rsquo;s representation that if necessary it would implement a reverse stock split. In an effort to comply,
the Company has placed on the agenda at its 2020 Annual Meeting of Stockholders currently scheduled to be held (virtually) on June
12, 2020, an item seeking shareholder approval of a reverse stock split.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0">Accordingly, the May 15 Letter matter serves as an additional
basis for delisting the Company&rsquo;s securities from The Nasdaq Stock Market.</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; background-color: white">&nbsp;</P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0pt 0; background-color: white">The issuance of the May 15 Letter has
no immediate effect on the listing or trading of the Company&rsquo;s common shares, which will continue to trade on Nasdaq under
the symbol &ldquo;JAKK&rdquo; until the Panel concludes its determination with respect to the Company&rsquo;s compliance with Nasdaq&rsquo;s
Listing Rules.</P>
