(1) As reported on a Form 4 dated and filed May 19, 2005, Dr. Rich received a grant of 2,000 Restricted Stock Units ("RSUs" or "Units") with dividend equivalent rights on May 19, 2005. On May 19, 2007, 50% of these RSUs vested, along with 50% of the additional 118 Units that she had received pursuant to dividend equivalent rights, resulting in the issuance of 1,059 shares of Mattel common stock.
(2) The option was granted on May 18, 2007, pursuant to the Mattel, Inc. 2005 Equity Compensation Plan (the "2005 Plan"). The option vests and becomes exercisable as to (a) 33% of the shares on the earlier of (i) the day before the first annual meeting of Mattel's stockholders ("Annual Meeting") that occurs after the grant date or (ii) the first anniversary of the grant date; (b) an additional 33% of the shares on the earlier of (i) the day before the second Annual Meeting that occurs after the grant date or (ii) the second anniversary of the grant date, and (c) the remaining 34% of the shares on the earlier of (i) the day before the third Annual Meeting that occurs after the grant date or (ii) the third anniversary of the grant date.
(3) The RSUs were granted on May 18, 2007, pursuant to the 2005 Plan. Each unit represents a contingent right to receive one share of 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.
(4) The RSUs vest as to (a) 50% of the Units on the earlier of (i) the day before the second Annual Meeting that occurs after the grant date or (ii) the second anniversary of the grant date; and (b) the remaining 50% of the Units on the earlier of (i) the day before the third Annual Meeting that occurs after the grant date or (ii) the third anniversary of the grant date. On each vesting date, for each Unit vesting on such date, 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 date of vesting).
