1. On March 3, 2008, Mr. Perlmutter received a compensatory grant of 170,974 shares of restricted stock pursuant to Marvel's 2005 Stock Incentive Plan in respect of 2007 performance.
2. On March 3, 2008, 39,063 shares of Mr. Perlmutter's restricted stock (one-quarter of a compensatory grant made in 2007) vested and were transferred by Mr. Perlmutter in a private transaction to the Isaac Perlmutter Trust 01/28/1993, a Florida revocable trust (the "Perlmutter Trust"). The transfer was made by Mr. Perlmutter for estate planning purposes and has no effect on his beneficial ownership of Common Stock. Mr. Perlmutter is the sole beneficiary and a trustee of the Perlmutter Trust. Mr. Perlmutter may be deemed to possess the sole power to vote and dispose of an aggregate amount of 29,366,636 shares of Common Stock. This amount includes 500,000 stock options granted pursuant to the Issuer's 1998 Stock Incentive Plan, all of which are immediately exercisable. See Exhibit 99.2 for details regarding the Reporting Persons' ownership of Common Stock.
