REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Plan Administrator and Participants of

Kimberly-Clark Corporation 401(k) and Retirement Contribution Plan:

We have audited the accompanying statements of net assets available for benefits of the Kimberly-Clark Corporation 401(k) and Retirement Contribution Plan, (the “Plan”) as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the related statements of changes in net assets available for benefits for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Plan is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Plan's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, such financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the changes in net assets available for benefits for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental Schedule of Assets (held at end of year) as of December 31, 2012, and the Schedule of Reportable Transactions for the year ended December 31, 2012, are presented for the purpose of additional analysis and are not a required part of the basic financial statements but are supplementary information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. These schedules are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Such schedules have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in our audit of the basic 2012 financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects whenconsidered in relation to the basic 2012 financial statements taken as a whole.

KIMBERLY-CLARK CORPORATION

401(K) AND RETIREMENT CONTRIBUTION PLAN

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1. Description of the Plan

The following brief description of the Kimberly-Clark Corporation 401(k) and Retirement Contribution Plan (the “Plan”) is provided for general information purposes only. Participants should refer to the Plan document for more complete information.

General

Until December 31, 2009 (Date of Merger), the Kimberly-Clark Corporation Incentive Investment Plan (“IIP”) and the Kimberly-Clark Corporation Retirement Contribution Plan, participated in the Kimberly-Clark Corporation Defined Contribution Plans Trust (“Master Trust”) for investment and administrative purposes. By resolution from Kimberly-Clark Corporation (the "Corporation"), dated April 17, 2009, as of the end of the day on December 31, 2009, the Retirement Contribution Plan was merged into the Incentive Investment Plan to form a single plan. Effective January 1, 2010, the merged Incentive Investment Plan was amended and restated as the Plan, and the applicable assets were transferred to the Kimberly-Clark Corporation 401(k) and Profit Sharing Plan (“PSP”) or remained in the Plan dependent upon participant eligibility. The assets of the Plan are held with The Northern Trust Company (“Trustee”).

The Plan, sponsored by the Corporation, is a defined contribution plan covering eligible employees of the Corporation, and its participating subsidiaries. Effective September 1, 1994, the Incentive Investment Plan became an employee stock ownership plan, as defined in Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”). The Plan is designed to invest primarily in qualifying employer securities, as defined in Section 409(l) of the Code. Hourly union employees at certain units of the Corporation and its participating U.S. subsidiaries (collectively, the “Employer”) are eligible to participate in the Plan. The Board of Directors of the Corporation or its delegate may change the eligibility and other provisions of the Plan from time to time. The named fiduciary for the Plan is the Benefits Administration Committee.

Contributions

An eligible employee who is considered non-highly compensated may elect to make contributions that are deducted from compensation paid by the Employer before federal income taxes are withheld (“401(k) contributions”), after-tax contributions, and Roth 401(k) contributions in any combination up to 75% (in whole percentages or flat dollar amounts) of base salary or 20% for highly compensated employees. A non-highly compensated employee is an employee whose prior year annual compensation was $115 thousand or less. Participants that are new hires or re-hires are automatically enrolled in the Plan at a 6% 401(k) contribution rate.

Employer matching contributions are determined based upon a percentage of qualifying employee contributions. The Corporation makes a matching contribution of seventy-five cents for each dollar contributed by the employee on the first 2% of base pay plus fifty cents for each dollar invested on the next 3% of base pay. Employer matching contributions are accounted for separately and share in the net appreciation or depreciation in fair value of investments, dividends, interest and expenses in the same manner as contributions made by a participant. All employer matching contributions are invested according to the participants' contribution investment elections. Employer matching contributions and future earnings (losses) on that amount can be reallocated to another investment fund within the Plan.

The Code contains certain limitations on the amount of contributions which can be made to the Plan by and on behalf of a participant. Specifically, there are limitations on 401(k) contributions, after-tax contributions, Roth 401(k) contributions, and employer matching contributions made on behalf of highly compensated eligible employees to ensure that no prohibited discrimination takes place under the Code. A participant affected by such limitations may have the 401(k) contributions deemed to be after-tax contributions and may also have a portion of the after-tax contributions refunded. 401(k), after-tax, and Roth 401(k) contributions qualify for employer matching contributions as described above. For the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, there were no re-classification of contributions.

The Employer makes a retirement contribution for each eligible employee based on an annual formula calculated considering the employee's age and eligible earnings. These contributions are made monthly.

Employee contributions receivable as of December 31, 2012, presented on the Statement of Net Assets Available for Benefits includes 401(k) contributions receivable of $1 thousand. The employee contributions presented on the Statement of Changes in

6

Net Assets Available for Benefits for year ended December 31, 2012 of $13.5 million includes 401(k) contributions of $11.8 million and after-tax, Roth 401(k), and rollover contributions, collectively, of $1.7 million.

Employee contributions receivable as of December 31, 2011, presented on the Statement of Net Assets Available for Benefits of $481 thousand includes 401(k) contributions receivable of $446 thousand and after-tax and Roth 401(k) contributions receivable, collectively, of $35 thousand. The employee contributions presented on the Statement of Changes in Net Assets Available for Benefits for year ended December 31, 2011 of $15.7 million includes 401(k) contributions of $14.2 million and after-tax, Roth 401(k), and rollover contributions, collectively, of $1.5 million.

Participant Accounts

Individual accounts are maintained for each Plan participant. Each participant's account is credited with the participant's contribution, the employer matching contributions, Plan earnings, and charged with an allocation of Plan losses, including expenses.

Investments

All investment elections are held by the Trustee and participant contributions allocated to a specific fund are commingled with those of other participants and are invested in accordance with the nature of the specific fund. Pending such investment, the Trustee is authorized to invest in short-term securities of the United States of America or in other investments of a short-term nature. Participants can elect to have their contributions in any of the twenty fund options available. The fund options consist of Kimberly-Clark Corporation Stock Fund (“K-C Stock Fund”), two different collective funds offered by Columbia Management (formerly, Ameriprise), which are the Money Market and Stable Income Fund and sixteen collective funds offered by BlackRock which include the Russell 1000 Value Index Non-Lendable Fund F, Russell 2000 Index Non-Lendable Fund F, Russell 1000 Growth Index Non-Lendable Fund F, U.S. Debt Index Non-Lendable Fund F, Russell 1000 Index Non-Lendable Fund F, MSCI ACWI ex-U.S. IMI Index Non-Lendable Fund F, and ten LifePath Index Non-Lendable Fund F funds which are the Retirement Fund, 2015 Fund, 2020 Fund, 2025 Fund, 2030 Fund, 2035 Fund, 2040 Fund, 2045 Fund, 2050 Fund, and 2055 Fund. The participant can also choose from a broad range of funds and certain other investments offered through a brokerage account.

During 2012, the following LifePath Index Non-Lendable Funds were added to the investment options: 2020 Fund, 2030 Fund, 2040 Fund, 2050 Fund, and 2055 Fund. The following funds were also added and assets were transferred from the closed funds as follows: Russell 1000 Growth Index Non-Lendable Fund F from Russell 1000 Growth Fund T, Russell 1000 Value Index Non-Lendable Fund F from Russell 1000 Value Fund T, Russell 1000 Index Non-Lendable Fund F from Equity Index Non-Lendable Fund F, and MSCI ACWI ex-U.S. IMI Index Non-Lendable Fund F from MSCI EAFE Equity Index Non-Lendable Fund F. The addition of the new funds and changes to the existing funds were made to broaden investment options.

Vesting

Participants are immediately vested in their 401(k), after-tax, Roth 401(k), and rollover contributions. Vesting in company match and retirement contributions occurs after three years of service.

Participant Loans

Participants may borrow from their fund accounts a minimum of $1 thousand up to a maximum of 50% or $50 thousand of their vested account balance, whichever is less. The loans are secured by the balance in the participant's account and bear interest at the prime +1 percent interest rate as published in the Wall Street Journal on the 15th of the month prior to the first day of the month to which it applies. Principal and interest are paid ratably through payroll deductions. A participant may have only one outstanding loan. A loan processing fee of fifty dollars is charged to the participant. A loan may be a general purpose loan, which must be repaid within a maximum of four years, or a primary residence loan, which must be repaid within a maximum of ten years.

Distributions

Upon termination of a participant's employment and after three years or more of qualified service, or because of death, the value of the participant's accounts, including the value of all employer matching contributions, is distributable in either a lump sum or partial amount per the participant's request. An automatic distribution will occur within 90 days if the participant's balance is $5 thousand or less. If the balance is $1 thousand or less, the distribution will be in the form of cash. If the balance is less than $5 thousand but more than $1 thousand, the balance will automatically be rolled over to Millennium Trust, a financial services company serving individuals, where a separate IRA account will be established for the participant. If termination occurs other than as noted above, the value of nonvested employer matching contributions is forfeited and used to reduce subsequent employer matching contributions to the Plan.

A participant invested in the K-C Stock Fund earns dividends quarterly and has the option to reinvest the dividends earned into the fund or receive a distribution. Dividends distributed to participants during the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 were

7

$552 thousand and $525 thousand, respectively and are presented on the statement of changes in net assets as distributions of employee account balances.

Withdrawals

A participant may withdraw the value of their after-tax accounts and the value of employer matching contributions, if vested. Subject to certain conditions, a participant may withdraw the value of 401(k) contributions, Roth 401(k) contributions and earnings credited in the case of hardship or after attaining age 59½. The participant will be required to suspend subsequent contributions to the Plan for six months following any hardship withdrawal of 401(k) contributions and earnings thereon.

Forfeited Accounts

For the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, forfeitures totaled $111 thousand and $147 thousand, respectively. The forfeitures are used to offset employer contributions.

Voting of Company Stock

A participant has the right to direct the Trustee as to the manner in which to vote at each annual meeting and special meeting of the stockholders of the Corporation the number of whole shares of the Corporation's common stock held by the Trustee and attributable to his or her K-C Stock Fund account as of the valuation date coincident with the record date for the meeting. In addition, the participant has the right to determine whether whole shares of the Corporation's common stock held by the Trustee and attributable to his or her K-C Stock Fund account should be tendered in response to offers thereof.

Note 2. Accounting Principles and Practices

Basis of Accounting

The accompanying financial statements for the Plan have been prepared on the accrual basis and are in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") for defined contribution benefit plans. The significant accounting policies employed in the preparation of the accompanying financial statements are as follows:

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of net assets available for benefits and changes therein. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Investment Valuation and Income Recognition

All investments are stated at fair value. The Plan primarily invests in collective funds that have underlying investments and the fair value is determined by the Plan's proportionate share of the underlying investments and is estimated using the net asset value per share.  Funds with underlying investments in benefit-responsive investment contracts are valued at fair market value of the underlying investments and then adjusted by the issuer to contract value. The fair value of the Corporation's common stock held by the Plan is determined as the last selling price on the last business day of the year, as published by an independent source. Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Cash equivalents represent the following: 1) funds held for distributions and transfers in the K-C Stock Fund, 2) funds held for pending participant disbursements in the clearing account, and 3) funds invested in cash equivalent securities and pending transactions in the SDBA. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Net appreciation (depreciation) includes the Plan's gains and losses on investments bought and sold as well as held during the year.

The Stable Income Fund is a stable value fund which is invested in other funds that are commingled pools sponsored by Columbia Management (formerly, Ameriprise). These funds may invest in fixed interest insurance investment contracts, money market funds, corporate and government bonds, mortgage-backed securities, bond funds, and other fixed income securities. Participants may ordinarily direct the withdrawal or transfer of all or a portion of their investment at contract value. Contract value represents contributions made to the fund, plus earnings, less participant withdrawals. There are no redemption restrictions in the Stable Income Fund.

Notes Receivable from Participants

Notes receivable from participant loans are valued at their unpaid principal balance plus any accrued but unpaid interest.

Administrative Expenses

Administrative expenses of the Plan are paid by the Plan as provided in the Plan document.

8

Benefits Paid to Participants

Distributions are recorded when paid. Amounts allocated to accounts of participants who have elected to withdraw from the Plan, but have not yet been paid, were $109 thousand and $82 thousand at December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

Transfers into or from the Plan

For the year ended December 31, 2011, other transfers, including transfers from the Plan related to employment status changes, were $1.2 million. Kimtech hourly union became eligible to participate in the PSP effective January 1, 2011 and total assets transferred from the Plan was $6.5 million in January 2011.

New Accounting Standards

In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2011-04, Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP, to provide largely identical guidance about fair value measurement and disclosure requirements. The ASU does not extend the use of fair value but, rather, provides guidance about how fair value should be applied where it is already required or permitted under U.S. GAAP. The Plan adopted ASU No. 2011-04 on January 1, 2012. The adoption of this update did not have a material impact on the financial statements.

Note 3. Fair Value Measurements

ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, provides the framework for measuring fair value. That framework provides a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy under ASC 820 are described as follows:

Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets accessible at the reporting date for identical assets and liabilities.

Level 2 – Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets. Quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not considered active or financial instruments for which all significant inputs are observable, either directly or indirectly.

Level 3 – Prices or valuations that require inputs that are significant to the valuation and are unobservable.

The fair value measurement level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Valuation techniques used maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs.

The following tables set forth by level, within the fair value hierarchy a summary of the Plan's investments measured at fair value as of December 31, 2012 and 2011:

As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, there were no assets with a Level 3 fair value determination. The availability of observable market data is monitored to assess the appropriate classification of financial instruments within the fair value hierarchy. Changes in economic conditions or model-based valuation techniques may require the transfer of financial instruments from one fair value level to another. The Plan's policy is to recognize significant transfers between levels at the end of the year. We evaluate the

10

significance of transfers between levels based upon the nature of the financial instrument and size of the transfer relative to total net assets available for benefits. During the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, there were no significant transfers among level 1 or 2 fair value determinations.

Following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for the Plan's investments that have been measured at level 2 fair value. There have been no changes in the methodologies used at December 31, 2012 and 2011.

Cash equivalents: The cash equivalents are a result of the cash liquidity held in the K-C Stock Fund, SDBA, and clearing account. The valuation of the cash equivalents is considered a level 2 due to the cash being held in a fund or short-term cash that has movement between funds or out of the Plan.

US government and municipal fixed income securities: The valuation is determined by observing the value at the closing price reported in the active market in which the individual securities are traded and the trading activity in the market place.

Multi-Sector fixed income mutual and pooled funds: The net asset value of the units of the pooled fund as determined by the investment manager is used as a practical expedient to estimate fair value.

US equity, non-US equity and multi-asset class: The investments include K-C Stock Fund and equity collective funds. Fair value of the Corporation's common stock held in the K-C Stock Fund is determined based on the unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets and the valuation of the common stock is considered a level 2 due to the common stock being held in a fund with cash equivalents.

Note 4. Net Asset Value (NAV) Per Share

The following table for December 31, 2012 and 2011, sets forth a summary of the Plan's investments with a reported NAV.

	Fair Value Estimated Using NAV per Share
	December 31, 2012		December 31, 2011
Investment	Fair Value (a)		Fair Value (a)		Unfunded Commitment		Redemption Frequency	Other Redemption Restrictions	Redemption Notice Period
	(Thousands of dollars)

Equity index funds (e)	140,678		126,656		—		Daily	None	Daily

^(a) The fair values of the investments have been estimated using the NAV of the investment.

^(b) Short-term investment fund strategies seek to invest in high-quality, short-term securities which is included in cash and cash equivalents.

^(c) Fixed income fund strategies seek to replicate the Barclays Capital Aggregate Bond Index or provide capital preservation and income.

^(d) Multi-asset class funds are target date funds that seek to provide a diversified asset allocation consistent with the participants' current stage of life.

^(e) Equity index fund strategies seek to replicate the return of an index of a specific financial market, such as the S&P 500 Index or Russell 2000 Index.

Note 5. Investments

At December 31, 2012, the Plan held 403 thousand shares of the Corporation's common stock at a fair value of $34 million. During the year ended December 31, 2012, 779 thousand shares were acquired, and 727 thousand shares were disposed.

At December 31, 2011, the Plan held 351 thousand shares of the Corporation's common stock at a fair value of $25.9 million. During the year ended December 31, 2011, 1.1 million shares were acquired, and 1.1 million shares were disposed.

The market value recorded on the Statement of Net Assets Available for Benefits includes the fourth quarter dividend payable that is not included in the common stock recorded above for years ended 2012 and 2011.

All of the above transactions are exempt from the prohibitions against party-in-interest transactions under ERISA.

Note 7. Plan Termination

Although it has not expressed any intention to do so, the Corporation has the right under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and to terminate the Plan subject to the provisions set forth in ERISA. In the event that the Plan is terminated, participants would become 100% vested in their accounts.

Note 8. Federal Income Tax Status

The Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) has issued a favorable determination letter dated April 24, 2009. The Corporation filed a request for a new determination letter in June 2011 and the IRS sent an acknowledgment of receipt in July 2011. The Plan qualifies under Section 401(a) of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) and the Plan is exempt from income tax under Section 501(a) of the Code. The federal income tax status of participants with respect to the Plan is as follows: A participant's after-tax contributions, in whatever form, are not tax-deductible by the participant; however, the portion of a distribution attributable to such contributions is not taxable upon distribution. Participant 401(k) contributions are considered contributions by the Employer rather than the participant and, as a result, are not taxable until the year in which they are distributed. Employer contributions and the earnings on employer and participant contributions are generally not taxable to the participant until the year in which they are distributed.

US GAAP require plan management to evaluate tax positions taken by the Plan and recognize a tax liability (or asset) if the Plan has taken an uncertain position that more likely than not would not be sustained upon examination by the IRS. The Plan is subject to routine audits by taxing jurisdictions; however, there are currently no audits for any tax periods in progress. The plan administrator believes it is no longer subject to income tax examinations for years prior to 2007.

Note 9. Changes to the Plan

During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Plan was amended to remove the 30 day restriction from the MSCI ACWI ex-U.S. IMI Index Non-Lendable Fund F, effective October 5, 2012.

During the year ended December 31, 2011, the Plan was amended to (a) provide that any hourly organized employee at the Everett facility who participated in the Pension Plan as of 11:59 p.m. on December 31, 2011 shall cease participating in the Pension Plan and will become a participant in the Plan effective January 1, 2012 and (b) provide that the three year vesting requirement is waived for eligible employees in the Plan who remain on the job until involuntarily terminated by the Corporation due to the closure of the Everett mill effective October 1, 2011.

Plan assets are invested in funds and securities as directed by plan participants. These investment securities, in general, are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, credit, and overall market volatility. Accordingly, it is reasonably possible that changes in the values of investment securities will occur in the near term and that such changes could materially affect the amounts reported in the Statements of Net Assets Available for Benefits.
