Explanation of Responses:

* If the form is filed by more than one reporting person, see Instruction 4(b)(v).
** Intentional misstatements or omissions of facts constitute Federal Criminal Violations. See 18 U.S.C. 1001 and 15 U.S.C. 78ff(a).
(1) As reported on a Form 4 dated September 25, 2007 and filed on September 26, 2007, the reporting person received a grant of 10,000 Restricted Stock Units ("RSUs" or "Units") on September 25, 2007. The RSUs vest as to 50% of the Units on the second anniversary of the date of grant and as to the remaining 50% of the Units on the third anniversary of the date of grant. On each vesting date, for each Unit vesting on such date, the reporting person will receive one share of Mattel common stock (or, at the election of Mattel, a cash amount equal to the fair market value of one share of common stock on the date of vesting), subject to tax withholding. On September 25, 2009, the first 50% of these RSUs vested, resulting in the issuance of 5,000 shares of Mattel common stock.
(2) Pursuant to the terms of the September 25, 2007 RSU grant, 1,788 shares of Mattel common stock were automatically withheld at vesting to cover required tax withholding.

Note: File three copies of this Form, one of which must be manually signed. If space provided is insufficient, see Instruction 6 for procedure.
