Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
As of December 31, 2013, Mattel’s disclosure controls and procedures were evaluated, with the
participation of Mattel’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, to assess whether they are
effective in providing reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by Mattel in the reports that
it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is accumulated and communicated to management,
including its principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions
regarding required disclosure and to provide reasonable assurance that such information is recorded, processed,
summarized and reported within the time periods specified in Securities and Exchange Commission rules and
forms. Based on this evaluation, Bryan G. Stockton, Mattel’s principal executive officer, and Kevin M. Farr,
Mattel’s principal financial officer, concluded that these disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of
December 31, 2013.
