HASBRO, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

Condensed Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Thousands of Dollars and Shares Except Per Share Data)

(Unaudited)

(1) Basis of Presentation

In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited interim financial statements contain all normal and recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position of Hasbro, Inc. and all majority-owned subsidiaries ("Hasbro" or the "Company") as of March 27, 2016 and March 29, 2015, and the results of its operations and cash flows for the periods then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP"). The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and notes thereto. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The quarters ended March 27, 2016 and March 29, 2015 are each 13-week periods.

The results of operations for the quarter are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full year, nor were those of the comparable 2015 period representative of those actually experienced for the full year 2015.

These condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and disclosures normally included in the consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The Company filed audited consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 27, 2015 in its Annual Report on Form 10-K, which includes all such information and disclosures and, accordingly, should be read in conjunction with the financial information included herein.

The Company's accounting policies are the same as those described in Note 1 to the Company's consolidated financial statements in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 27, 2015.

(2) Earnings Per Share

Net earnings per share data for the quarters ended March 27, 2016 and March 29, 2015 were computed as follows:

	2016				2015
Quarter	Basic		Diluted		Basic		Diluted
Net earnings attributable to Hasbro, Inc.	$	48,751		48,751		26,667		26,667

Average shares outstanding		125,266		125,266		124,853		124,853
Effect of dilutive securities:
Options and other share-based awards		-		1,682		-		1,489
Equivalent Shares		125,266		126,948		124,853		126,342

Net earnings attributable to Hasbro, Inc. per common share	$	0.39		0.38		0.21		0.21

For the quarters ended March 27, 2016 and March 29, 2015, options and restricted stock units totaling 492 and 782, respectively, were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per share because to include them would have been antidilutive.

(3) Other Comprehensive Earnings (Loss)

Components of other comprehensive earnings (loss) are presented within the consolidated statements of comprehensive earnings. The following table presents the related tax effects on changes in other comprehensive earnings (loss) for the quarters ended March 27, 2016 and March 29, 2015.

		Quarter Ended
		March 27,		March 29,
		2016		2015

Other comprehensive earnings (loss), tax effect:
Tax benefit (expense) on cash flow hedging activities		$	3,256		(4,815)
Tax expense on unrealized holding gains			(953)		(128)
Reclassifications to earnings, tax effect:
	Tax expense (benefit) on cash flow hedging activities		1,749		342
	Tax benefit on unrecognized pension and postretirement
	amounts reclassified to the consolidated statements of operations		(667)		(684)
Total tax effect on other comprehensive earnings (loss)		$	3,385		(5,285)

Changes in the components of accumulated other comprehensive loss for the three months ended March 27, 2016 and March 29, 2015 are as follows:

					Unrealized
					Holding				Total
			Gains		Gains on		Foreign		Accumulated
	Pension and		(Losses) on		Available-		Currency		Other
	Postretirement		Derivative		for-Sale		Translation		Comprehensive
	Amounts		Instruments		Securities		Adjustments		Earnings (Loss)
2016
Balance at December 27, 2015	$	(102,931)		79,317		1,258		(123,645)		(146,001)
Current period other comprehensive earnings (loss)		1,175		(33,347)		1,680		12,140		(18,352)
Balance at March 27, 2016	$	(101,756)		45,970		2,938		(111,505)		(164,353)

2015
Balance at December 27, 2014	$	(113,092)		43,689		1,900		(27,951)		(95,454)
Current period other comprehensive earnings (loss)		1,204		54,339		226		(47,311)		8,458
Balance at March 29, 2015	$	(111,888)		98,028		2,126		(75,262)		(86,996)

At March 27, 2016, the Company had remaining net deferred gains on foreign currency forward contracts, net of tax, of $65,046 in accumulated other comprehensive loss ("AOCE"). These instruments hedge payments related to inventory purchased in the first quarter of 2016 or forecasted to be purchased during the remainder of 2016 and, to a lesser extent, 2017 through 2020, intercompany expenses expected to be paid or received during 2016 and 2017, cash receipts for sales made at the end of the first quarter of 2016 or forecasted to be made in the remainder of 2016 and, to a lesser extent, 2017 through 2018. These amounts will be reclassified into the consolidated statements of operations upon the sale of the related inventory or recognition of the related sales or expenses.

In addition to foreign currency forward contracts, the Company entered into hedging contracts on future interest payments related to the long-term notes due 2021 and 2044. At the date of debt issuance, these contracts were terminated and the fair value on the date of settlement was deferred in AOCE and is being amortized to interest expense over the life of the related notes using the effective interest rate method. At March 27, 2016, deferred losses, net of tax of $19,076 related to these instruments remained in AOCE. For the quarters ended March 27, 2016 and March 29, 2015, losses of $450 were reclassified from AOCE to net earnings.

Of the amount included in AOCE at March 27, 2016, the Company expects approximately $44,500 to be reclassified to the consolidated statements of operations within the next 12 months. However, the amount ultimately realized in earnings is dependent on the fair value of the hedging instruments on the settlement dates.

(4) Financial Instruments

The Company's financial instruments include cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, short-term borrowings, accounts payable and certain accrued liabilities. At March 27, 2016, March 29, 2015 and December 27, 2015, the carrying cost of these instruments approximated their fair value. The Company's financial instruments at March 27, 2016, March 29, 2015 and December 27, 2015 also include certain assets and liabilities measured at fair value (see Notes 6 and 8) as well as long-term borrowings. The carrying costs which are equal to the outstanding principal amounts, and fair values of the Company's long-term borrowings as of March 27, 2016, March 29, 2015 and December 27, 2015 are as follows:

	March 27, 2016				March 29, 2015				December 27, 2015
	Carrying		Fair		Carrying		Fair		Carrying		Fair
	Cost		Value		Cost		Value		Cost		Value
6.35% Notes Due 2040	$	500,000		560,900		500,000		597,900		500,000		556,300
6.30% Notes Due 2017		350,000		370,965		350,000		389,305		350,000		374,045
5.10% Notes Due 2044		300,000		287,610		300,000		316,260		300,000		286,710
3.15% Notes Due 2021		300,000		302,880		300,000		308,970		300,000		300,060
6.60% Debentures Due 2028		109,895		122,456		109,895		131,039		109,895		121,269
Total long-term debt	$	1,559,895		1,644,811		1,559,895		1,743,474		1,559,895		1,638,384
Less: Deferred debt expenses		12,461		-		13,726		-		12,780		-
Long-term debt	$	1,547,434		1,644,811		1,546,169		1,743,474		1,547,115		1,638,384

The fair values of the Company's long-term debt are considered Level 3 fair values (see Note 6 for further discussion of the fair value hierarchy) and are measured using the discounted future cash flows method. In addition to the debt terms, the valuation methodology includes an assumption of a discount rate that approximates the current yield on a similar debt security. This assumption is considered an unobservable input in that it reflects the Company's own assumptions about the inputs that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The Company believes that this is the best information available for use in the fair value measurement.

In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, Interest – Imputation of Interest (ASC 835-30), which simplifies the presentation of debt issuance costs. ASU 2015-03 requires debt issuance costs related to long-term debt to be presented in the balance sheet as a reduction to the carrying amount of the related debt liability, consistent with the presentation of discounts. The Company adopted ASU 2015-03 at December 27, 2015 and deferred debt costs are presented as a reduction of long-term debt. Debt issuance costs of $13,726 have been reclassified from other assets in the consolidated balance sheet for March 29, 2015 to reflect this change in accounting principle.

(5) Income Taxes

The Company and its subsidiaries file income tax returns in the United States and various state and international jurisdictions. In the normal course of business, the Company is regularly audited by U.S. federal, state and local and international tax authorities in various tax jurisdictions.

The Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal income tax examinations for years before 2013. With few exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to U.S., state or local and non-U.S. income tax examinations by tax authorities in its major jurisdictions for years before 2009. The Company is currently under income tax examination in several U.S., state and local and non-U.S. jurisdictions.

In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-17, Income Taxes, which simplifies the presentation of deferred income taxes by removing the requirement to bifurcate deferred income tax assets and liabilities between current and non-current. The Company adopted ASU 2015-17 as of December 27, 2015 and deferred income tax assets and liabilities are presented as non-current in the consolidated balance sheets. This adoption was applied retrospectively and $73,230 has been reclassified from prepaid expenses and other current assets to other assets and $3,658 has been reclassified from accrued liabilities to other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet as of March 29, 2015.

(6) Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The Company measures certain financial instruments at fair value. The fair value hierarchy consists of three levels: Level 1 fair values are based on quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the entity has the ability to access; Level 2 fair values are those based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; and Level 3 fair values are based on inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities.

Accounting standards permit entities to measure many financial instruments and certain other items at fair value and establish presentation and disclosure requirements designed to facilitate comparisons between entities that choose different measurement attributes for similar assets and liabilities. The Company has elected the fair value option for certain available-for-sale investments. At March 27, 2016, March 29, 2015 and December 27, 2015, these investments totaled $22,665, $23,141 and $22,539, respectively, and are included in prepaid expenses and other current assets in the consolidated balance sheets. The Company recorded net gains and interest income of $83 and $17 on these investments in other (income) expense, net for the quarters ended March 27, 2016 and March 29, 2015, respectively, related to the change in fair value of such instruments.

At March 27, 2016, March 29, 2015 and December 27, 2015, the Company had the following assets and liabilities measured at fair value (excluding assets for which the fair value is measured using net assets value per share) in its consolidated balance sheets:

Total Liabilities	$	29,600		-		1,240		28,360

Available-for-sale securities include equity securities of one company quoted on an active public market.

The Company's derivatives consist primarily of foreign currency forward contracts. The Company used current forward rates of the respective foreign currencies to measure the fair value of these contracts. The option agreement included in other liabilities at March 27, 2016, March 29, 2015 and December 27, 2015, is valued using an option pricing model based on the fair value of the related investment. Inputs used in the option pricing model include the volatility and fair value of the underlying company which are considered unobservable inputs as they reflect the Company's own assumptions about the inputs that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The Company believes that this is the best information available for use in the fair value measurement. There were no changes in these valuation techniques during the three-month period ended March 27, 2016.

The following is a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances of the fair value measurements of the Company's financial instruments which use significant unobservable inputs (Level 3):

	2016		2015
Balance at beginning of year	$	(28,360)		(25,340)
Gain from change in fair value		440		420
Balance at end of first quarter	$	(27,920)		(24,920)

In addition to the above, the Company has three investments for which the fair value is measured using net asset value per share. At March 27, 2016, March 29, 2015 and December 27, 2015, these investments had fair values of $22,665, $23,141 and $22,539, respectively. Two of the investments have net asset values that are predominantly based on underlying investments which are traded on an active market and are redeemable within 45 days. The third investment invests in hedge funds which are generally redeemable on a quarterly basis with 30 – 90 days notice.

(7) Pension and Postretirement Benefits

The components of the net periodic cost of the Company's defined benefit pension and other postretirement plans for the quarters ended March 27, 2016 and March 29, 2015 are as follows:

	Quarter Ended
	Pension				Postretirement
	March 27,		March 29,		March 27,		March 29,
	2016		2015		2016		2015
Service cost	$	998		1,011		132		150
Interest cost		4,606		4,605		294		285
Expected return on assets		(5,507)		(5,479)		-		-
Net amortization and deferrals		2,132		2,201		-		(114)
Net periodic benefit cost	$	2,229		2,338		426		321

During the three months ended March 27, 2016, the Company made cash contributions to its defined benefit pension plans of approximately $370 in the aggregate. The Company expects to contribute approximately $3,130 during the remainder of fiscal 2016.

(8) Derivative Financial Instruments

Hasbro uses foreign currency forward contracts to mitigate the impact of currency rate fluctuations on firmly committed and projected future foreign currency transactions. These over-the-counter contracts, which hedge future currency requirements related to purchases of inventory, product sales and other cross-border transactions not denominated in the functional currency of the business unit, are primarily denominated in United States and Hong Kong dollars, and Euros. All contracts are entered into with a number of counterparties, all of which are major financial institutions. The Company believes that a default by a single counterparty would not have a material adverse effect on the financial condition of the Company. Hasbro does not enter into derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes.

Cash Flow Hedges

The Company uses foreign currency forward contracts to reduce the impact of currency rate fluctuations on firmly committed and projected future foreign currency transactions. All of the Company's designated foreign currency forward contracts are considered to be cash flow hedges. These instruments hedge a portion of the Company's currency requirements associated with anticipated inventory purchases, product sales and other cross-border transactions in 2016 through 2020.

At March 27, 2016, March 29, 2015 and December 27, 2015, the notional amounts and fair values of the Company's foreign currency forward contracts designated as cash flow hedging instruments were as follows:

	March 27, 2016				March 29, 2015				December 27, 2015
	Notional		Fair		Notional		Fair		Notional		Fair
Hedged transaction	Amount		Value		Amount		Value		Amount		Value
Inventory purchases	$	1,277,977		69,748		912,376		135,512		1,380,488		108,521
Sales		82,072		258		232,643		(6,769)		97,350		803
Royalties and Other		270,207		(4,077)		84,518		(2,766)		54,360		(1,886)
Total	$	1,630,256		65,929		1,229,537		125,977		1,532,198		107,438

The Company has a master agreement with each of its counterparties that allows for the netting of outstanding forward contracts. The fair values of the Company's foreign currency forward contracts designated as cash flow hedges are recorded in the consolidated balance sheets at March 27, 2016, March 29, 2015 and December 27, 2015 as follows:

	March 27,		March 29,		December 27,
	2016		2015		2015
Prepaid expenses and other current assets
Unrealized gains	$	53,774		74,219		78,910

Unrealized gains	$	1,349		-		241
Unrealized losses		(3,954)		-		(437)
Net unrealized loss	$	(2,605)		-		(196)

Net gains (losses) on cash flow hedging activities have been reclassified from other comprehensive earnings (loss) to net earnings for the quarters ended March 27, 2016 and March 29, 2015 as follows:

	Quarter Ended
	March 27,		March 29,
	2016		2015
Statements of Operations Classification
Cost of sales	$	15,698		10,063
Sales		98		(1,354)
Royalties and Other		7		43
Net realized gains	$	15,803		8,752

In addition, gains of $3,957 were reclassified to earnings as a result of hedge ineffectiveness for the quarter ended March 27, 2016. There were no reclassifications as a result of hedge ineffectiveness during the first quarter of 2015.

Undesignated Hedges

The Company also enters into foreign currency forward contracts to minimize the impact of changes in the fair value of intercompany loans due to foreign currency fluctuations. Due to the nature of the derivative contracts involved, the Company does not use hedge accounting for these contracts. At March 27, 2016, March 29, 2015 and December 27, 2015 the total notional amounts of the Company's undesignated derivative instruments were $88,862, $119,395 and $341,389, respectively.

At March 27, 2016, March 29, 2015 and December 27, 2015, the fair values of the Company's undesignated derivative financial instruments were recorded in the consolidated balance sheets as follows:

	March 27,		March 29,		December 27,
	2016		2015		2015
Prepaid expenses and other current assets
Unrealized gains	$	-		1,088		-
Unrealized losses		-		(28)		-
Net unrealized gain		-		1,060		-

Accrued liabilities
Unrealized gains		321		-		416
Unrealized losses		(462)		-		(1,460)
Net unrealized loss		(141)		-		(1,044)

Total unrealized gain (loss), net	$	(141)		1,060		(1,044)

The Company recorded net gains of $3,255 and $10,071 on these instruments to other (income) expense, net for the quarters ended March 27, 2016 and March 29, 2015, respectively, relating to the change in fair value of such derivatives, substantially offsetting gains and losses from the change in fair value of intercompany loans to which the contracts relate.

For additional information related to the Company's derivative financial instruments see Notes 4 and 6.

(9) Segment Reporting

Hasbro is a worldwide leader in children's and family leisure time products and services with a broad portfolio of brands and entertainment properties spanning toys, games, licensed products ranging from traditional to high-tech and digital, and film and television entertainment. The Company's segments are (i) U.S. and Canada, (ii) International, (iii) Entertainment and Licensing, and (iv) Global Operations.

The U.S. and Canada segment includes the marketing and selling of action figures, arts and crafts and creative play products, electronic toys and related electronic interactive products, fashion and other dolls, infant products, play sets, preschool toys, plush products, sports action blasters and accessories, vehicles and toy-related specialty products, as well as traditional board games, and trading card and role-playing games primarily within the United States and Canada. Within the International segment, the Company markets and sells both toy and game products in markets outside of the U.S. and Canada, primarily in the European, Asia Pacific, and Latin and South American regions. The Company's Entertainment and Licensing segment includes the Company's consumer product licensing, digital gaming, movie and television entertainment operations. The Global Operations segment is responsible for sourcing finished products for the Company's U.S. and Canada and International segments.

Segment performance is measured at the operating profit level. Included in Corporate and Eliminations are certain corporate expenses, including the elimination of intersegment transactions and certain assets benefiting more than one segment. Intersegment sales and transfers are reflected in management reports at amounts approximating cost. Certain shared costs, including global development and marketing expenses and corporate administration, are allocated to segments based upon expenses and foreign exchange rates fixed at the beginning of the year, with adjustments to actual expenses and foreign exchange rates included in Corporate and Eliminations. The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those referenced in note 1.

Results shown for the quarter are not necessarily representative of those which may be expected for the full year 2016, nor were those of the comparable 2015 period representative of those actually experienced for the full year 2015. Similarly, such results are not necessarily those which would be achieved were each segment an unaffiliated business enterprise.

Information by segment and a reconciliation to reported amounts for the quarters ended March 27, 2016 and March 29, 2015 are as follows:

	Quarter Ended

	$	4,364,695		4,247,116		4,720,717

(a) The Global Operations segment derives substantially all of its revenues, and thus its operating results, from intersegment activities.

(b) Certain long-term assets, including property, plant and equipment, goodwill and other intangibles, which benefit multiple operating segments, are included in Corporate and Eliminations. Allocations of certain expenses related to these assets to the individual operating segments are done at the beginning of the year based on budgeted amounts. Any differences between actual and budgeted amounts are reflected in Corporate and Eliminations because allocations are translated from the US Dollar to local currency at budget rates when recorded, and Corporate and Eliminations also includes the elimination of inter-company balance sheet amounts.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The Company strives to do this through deep consumer engagement and the application of consumer insights, the use of immersive storytelling to build brands, product innovation and development of global business reach. Hasbro applies these principles to leverage its beloved owned and controlled brands, including LITTLEST PET SHOP, MAGIC: THE GATHERING, MONOPOLY, MY LITTLE PONY, NERF, PLAY-DOH and TRANSFORMERS, as well as partner brands. From toys and games, to television programming, motion pictures, digital gaming and a comprehensive consumer product licensing program, Hasbro fulfills the fundamental need for play and connection for children and families around the world. The Company's wholly-owned Hasbro Studios creates entertainment brand-driven storytelling across mediums, including television, film and more.

Each of these elements is executed globally in alignment with Hasbro's strategic game plan, its brand blueprint. At the center of this blueprint, Hasbro re-imagines, re-invents and re-ignites its owned and controlled brands and imagines, invents and ignites new brands, through toy and game innovation, immersive entertainment offerings, including television programming and motion pictures, and a broad range of licensed products. Hasbro generates revenue and earns cash by developing, marketing and selling products based on global brands in a broad variety of consumer goods categories including toy and game products and distribution of television programming based on the Company's properties, as well as through the out-licensing of rights for third parties to use its properties in connection with products, including digital media and games and lifestyle products. Hasbro also leverages its competencies to develop and market products based on well-known licensed brands, including, but not limited to, DISNEY PRINCESS and FROZEN, DISNEY DESCENDANTS, JURASSIC WORLD, MARVEL, SESAME STREET and STAR WARS. MARVEL and STAR WARS are owned by The Walt Disney Company.

The Company's business is separated into three principal business segments: U.S. and Canada, International and Entertainment and Licensing.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS – CONSOLIDATED

The quarters ended March 27, 2016 and March 29, 2015 were each 13-week periods. Net earnings and net earnings attributable to Hasbro, Inc. increased to $47.0 million and $48.8 million, respectively, for the quarter ended March 27, 2016, from $25.8 million and $26.7 million, respectively, for the comparable period of 2015. Diluted earnings per share attributable to Hasbro, Inc. increased to $0.38 in the first quarter of 2016 from $0.21 in the first quarter of 2015.

Consolidated net revenues for the quarter ended March 27, 2016 increased approximately 16% compared to the quarter ended March 29, 2015 despite a negative impact by foreign currency translation of approximately $28.6 million as a result of the stronger U.S. dollar in 2016 compared to 2015. Absent the impact of foreign currency, consolidated net revenues grew 20% in the first quarter of 2016 compared to 2015. Higher net revenues from NERF and PLAY-DOH more than offset lower net revenues from TRANSFORMERS, and, to a lesser extent, lower net revenues from MAGIC: THE GATHERING and LITTLEST PET SHOP. Overall, franchise brands increased 1% during the first quarter of 2016 compared to 2015. Absent the impact of foreign exchange, franchise brands grew 4% for the quarter. Partner Brands also increased due to continued demand for STAR WARS: THE FORCE AWAKENS products and the addition of DISNEY PRINCESS and FROZEN products.

The following table presents net revenues by product category for the quarters ended March 27, 2016 and March 29, 2015.

	Quarter Ended
	March 27,		March 29,		%
	2016		2015		Change
Boys	$	336.9		272.6	24	%
Games		231.1		235.6	-2	%
Girls		165.4		117.1	41	%
Preschool		97.8		88.1	11	%
Net revenues	$	831.2		713.5	16	%

BOYS: Net revenues in the boys' category increased 24% in 2016 compared to 2015. Higher net revenues from Franchise Brand NERF were partially offset by lower revenues from TRANSFORMERS, which in the first quarter of 2015 continued to experience benefits from the June 2014 theatrical release TRANSFORMERS: AGE OF EXTINCTION. Higher net revenues from Partner Brand STAR WARS, which benefited from the December 2015 theatrical release STAR WARS: THE FORCE AWAKENS, were partially offset by lower first quarter 2016 net revenues from MARVEL products.

GAMES: Net revenues from the games category decreased approximately 2% in the first quarter of 2016 compared to the first quarter of 2015. Higher net revenues from PIEFACE as well as other games brands, particularly YAHTZEE, DUEL MASTERS, TRIVIAL PURSUIT, JENGA and RISK, were more than offset by lower net revenues from franchise brands MAGIC: THE GATHERING and MONOPLY as well as certain other games brands.

GIRLS: Net revenues in the girls' category increased 41% in the first quarter of 2016 compared to 2015. The first quarter of 2016 marked the on-shelf date for Hasbro’s line of DISNEY PRINCESS and FROZEN fashion and small dolls. The addition of these Partner Brands along with DISNEY’S DESCENDANTS and growth in BABY ALIVE more than offset declines in Furby as well as Franchise Brands NERF, LITTLEST PET SHOP and MY LITTLE PONY.

PRESCHOOL: Net revenues in the preschool category increased 11% in 2016 compared to 2015. Higher net revenues from PLAY-DOH products as well as sales of product related to the December 2015 theatrical release of STAR WARS: THE FORCE AWAKENS were slightly offset by lower net revenues from TRANSFORMERS.

Operating profit for the quarter ended March 27, 2016 increased 59% to $85.9 million, or 10.3% of net revenues, from $54.2 million, or 7.6% of net revenues, for the quarter ended March 29, 2015. Absent the impact of foreign currency, operating profit grew 67% in the first quarter of 2016 compared to 2015. Higher net revenues combined with lower intangible asset amortization and programming costs, partially offset by higher operating expenses, contributed to the growth in operating profit.

First Quarter of 2016

The following table presents net external revenues and operating profit data for the Company's three principal segments for the quarters ended March 27, 2016 and March 29, 2015.

	Quarter Ended
	March 27,		March 29,		%
	2016		2015		Change
Net Revenues
U.S. and Canada segment	$	443.6		345.7	28	%
International segment		345.0		305.7	13	%

International segment		2.9		1.9	50	%
Entertainment and Licensing segment		5.4		16.4	-67	%

U.S. and Canada Segment

The U.S. and Canada segment net revenues for the quarter ended March 27, 2016 increased 28% compared to 2015. Foreign currency translation did not have a significant impact on this segment's net revenues. In the first quarter of 2016, higher net revenues from the boys, girls and preschool categories more than offset lower net revenues from the games category.

The boys category benefited from higher net revenues from STAR WARS, NERF and YOKAI WATCH products which were partially offset by lower net revenues from MARVEL, JURASSIC WORLD and TRANSFORMERS products. Games category net revenues declined primarily related to lower net revenues from MAGIC: THE GATHERING products, partially offset by higher net revenues from DUEL MASTERS and PIE FACE. In the Preschool category higher net revenues from PLAY-DOH were partially offset by lower revenues from other Preschool brands products. In the girls' category higher net revenues primarily from the debut of the Company’s DISNEY PRINCESS and FROZEN fashion and small dolls products were partially offset by lower net revenues in Franchise Brand NERF.

U.S. and Canada segment operating profit for the quarter ended March 27, 2016 was $78.3 million, or 17.7% of net revenues, compared to $41.4 million, or 12% of segment net revenues, for the quarter ended March 29, 2015. Operating profit improved due to the impact of higher net revenues, partially offset by higher expense levels.

International Segment

International segment net revenues increased 13% to $345.0 million for the quarter ended March 27, 2016 from $305.7 million for the quarter ended March 29, 2015. International segment net revenues for the first quarter of 2016 included unfavorable foreign currency translation of approximately $26.7 million as a result of the stronger U.S. dollar in 2016 compared to 2015. Absent the impact of foreign currency translation, International segment net revenues increased approximately 22% in the first quarter 2016 compared to the first quarter of 2015. The following table presents net revenues by geographic region for the Company's International segment for the quarters ended March 27, 2016 and March 29, 2015.

	Quarter Ended
	March 27,		March 29,		%
	2016		2015		Change
Europe	$	$224.1		$195.9	14	%
Latin America		$55.6		$57.6	-3	%

Foreign currency translation negatively impacted the major geographic regions as follows: Europe - $9.8 million, Latin America - $13.0 million and Asia Pacific - $3.9 million. Absent foreign currency translation, the underlying business grew across all major geographic regions, up 33% in Europe, 19% in Latin America and 19% in Asia Pacific. Excluding the impact of unfavorable foreign exchange, net revenues in emerging markets increased approximately 6% in the first quarter of 2016 compared to 2015.

In the first quarter of 2016, all four product categories experienced net revenue growth. In the boys' category higher net revenues from Franchise Brand NERF and Partner Brand STAR WARS more than offset lower net revenues from TRANSFORMERS and MARVEL products. In the games category, higher net revenues from PIE FACE and MAGIC: THE GATHERING more than offset lower net revenues from other game brands, including MONOPOLY. Lower girls category net revenues from FURBY, NERF and LITTLEST PET SHOP products in the first quarter of 2016 compared to 2015 were more than offset by higher net revenues from DISNEY PRINCESS and FROZEN dolls, DISNEY DECENDANTS and BABY ALIVE. In the preschool category higher net revenues from PLAY-DOH products more than offset lower net revenues from core MARVEL, PLAYSKOOL and TRANSFORMERS products.

International segment operating profit increased 50% to $2.9 million, or 0.8% of net external revenues, for the quarter ended March 27, 2016 from $1.9 million, or 0.6% of segment net external revenues, for the quarter ended March 29, 2015. The increase in operating profit was primarily due to the increase in revenues discussed above, partially offset by higher administrative costs including a $13.8 million bad debt provision for a potentially uncollectable receivable.

Entertainment and Licensing Segment

Entertainment and Licensing segment net revenues for the quarter ended March 27, 2016 decreased 30% to $42.5 million compared to $60.6 million for the quarter ended March 29, 2015. Lower net revenues from entertainment and consumer product licensing, were only partially offset by an increase in Digital Gaming. Entertainment net revenues in 2015 included revenue from a multi-year streaming deal for Hasbro Studios television programming.

Entertainment and Licensing segment operating profit decreased to $5.4 million, or 12.8% of external net revenues, for the quarter ended March 27, 2016 from $16.4 million, or 27.1% of segment net revenues, for the quarter ended March 29, 2015. Overall, Entertainment and Licensing segment operating profit and operating profit margin declined primarily due to the decline in revenues.

Global Operations

Global Operations segment operating profit increased to $3.4 million for the quarter ended March 27, 2016 compared to a loss of $3.8 million for the quarter ended March 29, 2015 attributable to increased sourcing volume as well as lower overhead costs in 2016.

Corporate and Eliminations

The operating loss in Corporate and eliminations totaled $4.2 million for the first quarter of 2016 compared to $1.7 million for the first quarter of 2015.

OPERATING COSTS AND EXPENSES

First Quarter of 2016

The Company's costs and expenses, stated as percentages of net revenues, are illustrated below for the quarters ended March 27, 2016 and March 29, 2015.

	Quarter Ended
	March 27,		March 29,
	2016		2015
Cost of sales	34.9	%	34.7	%
Royalties	8.4		8.3
Product development	6.9		7.3
Advertising	9.6		9.5
Amortization of intangibles	1.0		1.8
Program production cost amortization	0.7		1.6
Selling, distribution and administration	28.1		29.3

Cost of sales increased 17.2% from $247.7 million, or 34.7% of net revenues, for the quarter ended March 29, 2015 to $290.2, or 34.9% of net revenues for the quarter ended March 27, 2016. Costs of sales increased in dollars primarily due to higher net revenues compared to the first quarter of 2015. As a percent of net revenues, the relatively flat costs of sales reflects a combination of a more favorable product mix and foreign exchange hedges related to product purchases, offset by the impact of lower entertainment and licensing revenues and lower MAGIC: THE GATHERING revenues. This more favorable product mix in part reflects higher net revenues from royalty-bearing products, specifically those related to the STAR WARS brand which generally carry higher pricing and, therefore, have a lower cost of sales as a percentage of net revenues.

Royalty expense for the quarter ended March 27, 2016 was $70.0 million, or 8.4% of net revenues, compared to $59.1 million, or 8.3% of net revenues, for the quarter ended March 29, 2015. Fluctuations in royalty expense are generally related to the volume of entertainment-driven products sold in a given period, especially if there is a major motion picture release. Growth in net revenues from partner brands, particularly related to STAR WARS, and DISNEY PRINCESS and FROZEN products, generated higher royalty expense in dollars and slightly higher as a percentage of net revenues during the first quarter of 2016 compared to the same period in 2015.

Product development expense for the quarter ended March 27, 2016 was $57.2 million, or 6.9% of net revenues, compared to $51.9 million, or 7.3% of net revenues, for the quarter ended March 29, 2015. Higher product development expense, in dollars, primarily reflects the Company’s continued investment in innovation across our brand portfolio in both Franchise and Partner brands.

Advertising expense for the quarter ended March 27, 2016 was $79.9 million, or 9.6% of revenues, compared to $67.7 million, or 9.5% of net revenues, for the quarter ended March 29, 2015. In dollars, the increase primarily reflects growth in revenue. Advertising expense was fairly consistent as a percentage of net revenues.

Amortization of intangibles was $8.7 million, or 1.0% of net revenues, compared to $13.0 million, or 1.8% of net revenues, for the quarter ended March 29, 2015. The decrease is primarily due to certain assets which became fully amortized during 2015.

Program production cost amortization decreased to $6.2 million or 0.7% of net revenues, for the quarter ended March 27, 2016 from $11.1 million, or 1.6% of net revenues, for the quarter ended March 29, 2015. Program production costs are capitalized as incurred and amortized using the individual-film-forecast method. The decrease in the first quarter of 2016 primarily relates to higher first quarter revenues in 2015 due to the multi-year digital distribution agreement for Hasbro Studios Programming.

For the quarter ended March 27, 2016, the Company's selling, distribution and administration expenses increased to $233.2 million, or 28.1% of net revenues, from $208.8 million, or 29.3% of net revenues, for the quarter ended March 29, 2015. Higher selling, distribution and administrative costs primarily reflect higher marketing and sales, administration, and distribution costs in the first quarter of 2016 compared to 2015. Foreign exchange resulted in a decrease of approximately $7.7 million. Administration costs in the first quarter of 2016 includes $13.8 million related to a provision for bad debt related to a customer in the International segment. Other increases in administration and marketing and sales included increased compensation, including stock compensation, and continued investments in our brands. The increase in distribution costs during the first quarter of 2016 was primarily due to higher revenue volume and inventory levels.

NON-OPERATING (INCOME) EXPENSE

Interest expense for the first quarter totaled $24.0 million compared to $24.6 million for the comparable period of 2015.

Interest income was $2.2 million for the first quarter of 2016 compared to $0.9 million in the first quarter of 2015. Higher invested cash balances in 2016 compared to 2015 were partially offset by lower average interest rates, particularly in international jurisdictions.

Other expense, net of $4.9 million for the quarter ended March 27, 2016 compared to other income, net of $3.8 million for the quarter ended March 29, 2015. Improved earnings from the Company’s joint venture television network in the first quarter of 2016 compared to 2015 were more than offset by increased foreign exchange losses in 2016 compared to the first quarter of 2015.

INCOME TAXES

Income taxes totaled $12.2 million on pre-tax earnings of $59.2 million in the first quarter compared to income taxes of $8.5 million on pre-tax earnings of $34.3 million in the first quarter of 2015. Both periods, as well as the full year 2015, were impacted by certain discrete tax events including the accrual of potential interest and penalties on certain tax positions. During the first three months of 2016, favorable discrete tax adjustments were a net benefit of $3.4 million compared to a net benefit of $0.8 million in the first three months of 2015. The favorable discrete tax adjustment for the first three months of 2016 includes benefits related to expiration of statutes of limitation for certain tax positions. Absent discrete items, the adjusted tax rate for the first quarters of 2016 and 2015 were 26.5% and 27.0%, respectively. The adjusted rate of 26.5% for the three months ended March 27, 2016 is comparable to the full year 2015 adjusted rate of 26.4%.

OTHER INFORMATION

Historically, the Company's revenue pattern has shown the second half of the year to be more significant to its overall business than the first half. The Company expects that this concentration will continue, particularly as more of its business has shifted to larger customers with order patterns concentrated in the second half of the year. The concentration of sales in the second half of the year increases the risk of (a) underproduction of popular items, (b) overproduction of less popular items, and (c) failure to achieve compressed shipping schedules.

The toy and game business is characterized by customer order patterns which vary from year to year largely because of differences each year in the degree of consumer acceptance of product lines, product availability, marketing strategies and inventory policies of retailers, the dates of theatrical releases of major motion pictures for which the Company has product licenses, and changes in overall economic conditions. As a result, comparisons of the Company's unshipped orders on any date with those at the same date in a prior year are not necessarily indicative of the Company's expected sales for that year. Moreover, quick response inventory management practices result in fewer orders being placed significantly in advance of shipment and more orders being placed for immediate delivery. Although the Company may receive orders from customers in advance, it is a general industry practice that these orders are subject to amendment or cancellation by customers prior to shipment and, as such, the Company does not believe that these unshipped orders, at any given date, are indicative of future sales.

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB"), in cooperation with the International Accounting Standards Board ("IASB"), issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (ASC 606). This ASU supersedes the revenue recognition requirements in Accounting Standards Codification 605 – Revenue Recognition and most industry-specific guidance throughout the Codification. This new guidance provides a five-step model for analyzing contracts and transactions to determine when, how and if revenue is recognized. Revenue should be recognized to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the company expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. This ASU is now effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, and for interim periods within those fiscal years, and may be adopted early but not before December 15, 2016. The Company is evaluating the requirements of ASU 2014-09 and its potential impact on the Company's financial statements and does not presently believe the adoption of this new standard will have a material impact on the Company’s results or financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) (ASU 2016-02), which will require lessees to recognize a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for virtually all of their leases. The liability will be based on the present value of lease payments and the asset will be based on the liability. For income statement purposes, a dual model was retained requiring leases to be either classified as operating or finance. Operating leases will result in straight-line expense while finance leases will result in a front-loaded expense pattern. Additional quantitative and qualitative disclosures will be required. ASU 2016-02 is required for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018 and must be adopted using a modified retrospective transition. The Company is evaluating the requirements of ASU 2016-02 and its potential impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting, which amends ASC Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation. The ASU includes provisions intended to simplify various aspects related to how share-based payments are accounted for and presented in the financial statements including (1) a requirement to record all of the tax effects related to share-based payments at settlement (or expiration) through the income statement; (2) a requirement that all tax-related cash flows resulting from share-based payments be reported as operating activities on the statement of cash flows; (3) the removal of the requirement to withhold shares upon settlement of an award at the minimum statutory withholding requirement; (4) a requirement that all cash payments made to taxing authorities on the employees’ behalf for withheld shares shall be presented as financing activities in the statements of cash flows; (5) entities will be permitted to make an accounting policy election for the impact of forfeitures on the recognition of expense for share-based payment awards choosing either to estimate forfeitures as required today or recognize forfeitures as they occur. ASU 2016-09 is effective for public companies for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2016, and interim periods within that reporting period. Early adoption will be permitted in any interim or annual period, with any adjustments reflected as of the beginning of the year of adoption. The Company is evaluating the requirements of ASU 2016-09 and its potential impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In July 2015, the FASB issued ASU 2015-11, Simplifying the Measurement of Inventory (“ASU 2015-11), which replaces the concept of market price with the single measurement of net realizable value. ASU 2015-11 is effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2016 and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017. The Company has evaluated the requirements of ASU 2015-11 and does not presently believe that the adoption of the new standard will have a material impact on the Company’s results or financial statements.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

The Company has historically generated a significant amount of cash from operations. In 2015 the Company funded its operations and liquidity needs primarily through cash flows from operations, and, when needed, using borrowings under its available lines of credit and commercial paper program.

During the first quarter of 2016, the Company continued to fund its working capital needs primarily through cash flows from operations and, when needed, lines of credit and commercial paper. The Company believes that the funds available to it, including cash expected to be generated from operations and funds available through its available lines of credit and commercial paper program, are adequate to meet its working capital needs for the remainder of 2016. However, unexpected events or circumstances such as material operating losses or increased capital or other expenditures may reduce or eliminate the availability of external financial resources. In addition, significant disruptions to credit markets may also reduce or eliminate the availability of external financial resources. Although management believes the risk of nonperformance by the counterparties to the Company's financial facilities is not significant, in times of severe economic downturn in the credit markets it is possible that one or more sources of external financing may be unable or unwilling to provide funding to the Company.

As of March 27, 2016 the Company's cash and cash equivalents totaled $1,095.9 million, substantially all of which is held outside of the United States. Deferred income taxes have not been provided on the majority of undistributed earnings of international subsidiaries as such earnings are indefinitely reinvested by the Company. Accordingly, such international cash balances are not available to fund cash requirements in the United States unless the Company changes its reinvestment policy. The Company currently has sufficient sources of cash in the United States to fund cash requirements without the need to repatriate any funds. If the Company changes its policy of permanently reinvesting international earnings, it would be required to accrue for any additional income taxes representing the difference between the tax rates in the United States and the applicable tax jurisdiction of the international subsidiaries. If the Company repatriated the funds from its international subsidiaries, it would then be required to pay the additional U.S. income tax. The majority of the Company's cash and cash equivalents held outside of the United States as of March 27, 2016 is denominated in the U.S. dollar.

Because of the seasonality in the Company's cash flow, management believes that on an interim basis, rather than discussing only its cash flows, a better understanding of its liquidity and capital resources can be obtained through a discussion of the various balance sheet categories as well. Also, as several of the major categories, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, inventories and short-term borrowings, fluctuate significantly from quarter to quarter, again due to the seasonality of its business, management believes that a comparison to the comparable period in the prior year is generally more meaningful than a comparison to the prior quarter or prior year-end.

At March 27, 2016, cash and cash equivalents, net of short-term borrowings, increased to $1,006.9 million from $849.5 million at March 29, 2015. Net cash provided by operating activities in the first quarter of 2016 was $293.6 million compared to $315.3 million in the first quarter of 2015. On a trailing twelve month basis, the Company generated $530.8 million in operating cash flows as of the end of the first quarter of 2016 compared to $527.7 million as of the end of the first quarter of 2015 and $552.4 million for the fiscal year ended December 27, 2015.

Accounts receivable increased 19% to $670.7 million at March 27, 2016 from $563.3 million at March 29, 2015 and includes a decrease of approximately $20.9 million due to a stronger U.S. dollar at March 27, 2016 compared to March 29, 2015. Absent the impact of foreign currency translation, accounts receivable increased approximately 23% reflecting the aforementioned 20% revenue growth, absent foreign exchange translation, in the first quarter of 2016 compared to 2015. Days sales outstanding increased from 71 days at March 29, 2015 to 73 days at March 27, 2016.

Inventories increased 36% to $461.7 million at March 27, 2016 from $340.7 million at March 29, 2015. The inventory balance at March 27, 2016 includes a decrease of approximately $17.8 million resulting from a stronger U.S. dollar. Absent the impact of foreign currency translation, inventories increased approximately 41% in support of 2016 initiatives, growth in the business, as well as the timing of entertainment in 2016.

Prepaid expenses and other current assets decreased 15% to $295.8 million at March 27, 2016 from $346.7 million at March 29, 2015. The majority of decrease is due to lower prepaid royalties as well as a decrease in the value of foreign exchange contracts at 2016 compared to 2015. These decreases were partially offset by higher balances related to income taxes at March 27, 2016.

Accounts payable and accrued liabilities increased 16% to $679.4 million at March 27, 2016 from $585.2 million at March 29, 2015. The increase was primarily due to higher accrued royalties at March 27, 2016 as advances made in 2015 were fully earned in that year. In addition, accounts payable increased reflecting higher inventory purchases.

Goodwill and other intangible assets, net decreased to $864.9 million at March 27, 2016 from $904.3 million at March 29, 2015. The decrease was due to amortization of intangible assets over the last twelve months.

Other assets decreased approximately 4% to $734.5 million at March 27, 2016 from $767.1 million at March 29, 2015. The decrease was primarily related to a lower value of long-term foreign exchange contracts as well as lower long-term royalty advances. These were partially offset by an increase due to a long-term note receivable related to the sale of the Company’s manufacturing operations in August 2015.

Other liabilities increased 2% to $402.3 million at March 27, 2016 from $396.1 million at March 29, 2015. The increase in 2016 compared to 2015 reflects higher uncertain tax positions partially offset by lower pension liabilities, primarily due to changes in actuarial assumptions, including higher discount rates.

Net cash utilized by investing activities was $27.6 million in the first quarter of 2016 compared to $33.1 million in the first quarter of 2015. Additions to property, plant and equipment were $31.2 million in both 2016 and 2015. 2015 investing activity also includes a $3 million capital contribution to a 50% joint venture with Guangdong Alpha Animation and Culture Co., Ltd while 2016 investing activity includes a $4.2 million distribution from the Discovery Family Channel joint venture.

Net cash utilized by financing activities was $151.7 million in the first quarter of 2016 compared to $82.5 million in the first quarter of 2015. Cash payments related to purchases of the Company's common stock were $33.7 million in the first quarter of 2016 compared to $26.5 million in the first quarter of 2015. At March 27, 2016, the Company had $443.5 million remaining available under its current share repurchase authorization approved by the Board of Directors. Dividends paid in the first quarter of 2016 totaled $57.4 million compared to $53.5 million in the first quarter of 2015. Repayments of short-term borrowings were $75.5 million in the first quarter of 2016 compared to $20.3 million in the first quarter of 2015.

The Company has an agreement with a group of banks for a commercial paper program (the "Program"). Under the Program, at the request of the Company and subject to market conditions, the banks may either purchase from the Company, or arrange for the sale by the Company, of unsecured commercial paper notes. Under the Program the Company may issue notes from time to time up to an aggregate principal amount outstanding at any given time of $700 million. The maturities of these notes will vary but may not exceed 397 days. The notes will be sold under customary terms in the commercial paper market and will be issued at a discount or par, or alternatively, will be sold at par and will bear varying interest rates based on a fixed or floating rate basis. The interest rates will vary based on market conditions and the ratings assigned to the notes by the credit rating agencies at the time of issuance. Subject to market conditions, the Company intends to utilize the Program as its primary short-term borrowing facility and does not intend to sell unsecured commercial paper notes in excess of the available amount under the revolving credit agreement, discussed below. If, for any reason, the Company is unable to access the commercial paper market, the Company intends to use the revolving credit agreement to meet the Company's short-term liquidity needs. At March 27, 2016 the Company had $89.0 million in borrowings outstanding related to the Program.

The Company has a revolving credit agreement (the "Agreement"), which provides it with a $700 million committed borrowing facility. The Agreement contains certain financial covenants setting forth leverage and coverage requirements, and certain other limitations typical of an investment grade facility, including with respect to liens, mergers and incurrence of indebtedness. The Company was in compliance with all covenants as of and for the quarter ended March 27, 2016. The Company had no borrowings outstanding under its committed revolving credit facility at March 27, 2016. However, the Company had letters of credit outstanding under this facility as of March 27, 2016 of approximately $0.8 million and borrowings under the Company’s commercial paper program of approximately $89.0 million. Amounts available and unused under the committed line, less outstanding balances under the commercial paper program, as of March 27, 2016 were approximately $610.2 million. The Company also has other uncommitted lines from various banks, of which approximately $33.2 million was utilized at March 27, 2016, all of which represents outstanding letters of credit.

The Company has principal amounts of long-term debt at March 27, 2016 of $1,559.9 million due at varying times from 2017 through 2044. The Company also had letters of credit and other similar instruments of approximately $34.0 million and purchase commitments of approximately $366.5 million outstanding at March 27, 2016.

Other contractual obligations and commercial commitments, as detailed in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 27, 2015, did not materially change outside of payments made in the normal course of business and as otherwise set forth in this report. The table of contractual obligations and commercial commitments, as detailed in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 27, 2015, does not include certain tax liabilities recorded related to uncertain tax positions. These liabilities were $67.5 million at March 27, 2016, and are included as a component of other liabilities in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.

The Company believes that cash from operations, and, if necessary, its committed line of credit and other borrowing facilities, will allow the Company to meet these and other obligations listed.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND SIGNIFICANT ESTIMATES

The Company prepares its consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. As such, management is required to make certain estimates, judgments and assumptions that it believes are reasonable based on the information available. These estimates and assumptions affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses for the periods presented. The significant accounting policies which management believes are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating the Company's reported financial results include sales allowances, program production costs, recoverability of goodwill and intangible assets, recoverability of royalty advances and commitments, pension costs and obligations and income taxes. These critical accounting policies are the same as those detailed in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 27, 2015.

FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

The Company is exposed to market risks attributable to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates, primarily as the result of sourcing products priced in U.S. dollars, Hong Kong dollars and Euros while marketing those products in more than twenty currencies. Results of operations may be affected primarily by changes in the value of the U.S. dollar, Hong Kong dollar, Euro, British pound sterling, Swiss franc, Canadian dollar, Brazilian real, Russian ruble and Mexican peso and, to a lesser extent, other currencies in European, Latin American and Asia Pacific countries.

To manage this exposure, the Company has hedged a portion of its forecasted foreign currency transactions for fiscal years 2015 through 2020 using foreign exchange forward contracts. The Company is also exposed to foreign currency risk with respect to its net cash and cash equivalents or short-term borrowing positions in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. The Company believes, however, that the on-going risk on the net exposure should not be material to its financial condition. In addition, the Company's revenues and costs have been, and will likely continue to be, affected by changes in foreign currency rates. A significant change in foreign exchange rates can materially impact the Company's revenues and earnings due to translation of foreign-denominated revenues and expenses. The Company does not hedge against translation impacts of foreign exchange. From time to time, affiliates of the Company may make or receive intercompany loans in currencies other than their functional currency. The Company manages this exposure at the time the loan is made by using foreign exchange contracts. Other than as set forth above, the Company does not hedge foreign currency exposures.

The Company reflects all forward contracts at their fair value as an asset or liability on the consolidated balance sheets. The Company does not speculate in foreign currency exchange contracts. At March 27, 2016, these contracts had net unrealized gains of $65.8 million, of which $46.9 million are recorded in prepaid expenses and other current assets, $22.8 million are recorded in other assets, $1.3 million are recorded in accrued liabilities and $2.6 million are recorded in other liabilities. Included in accumulated other comprehensive loss at March 27, 2016 are deferred gains, net of tax, of $65.0 million, related to these derivatives.

At March 27, 2016, the Company had fixed rate long-term debt of $1,559.9 million. Of this long-term debt, $600 million represents the aggregate issuance of long-term debt in May 2014 which consisted of $300 million of 3.15% Notes Due 2021 and $300 million of 5.10% Notes Due 2044. The Company had forward-starting interest rate swap agreements with a total notional value of $500 million related to the May 2014 issuance which hedged the anticipated underlying U.S. Treasury interest rate. These interest rate swaps were matched with this debt issuance and were designated and effective as hedges of the change in future interest payments. At the date of debt issuance, the Company terminated these interest rate swap agreements and their fair value was recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss and is being amortized through the consolidated statements of operations using an effective interest rate method over the life of the related debt. Included in accumulated other comprehensive loss at March 27, 2016 are deferred losses, net of tax, of $19.1 million related to these derivatives.

Legal Proceedings.

The Company is currently party to certain legal proceedings, none of which it believes to be material to its business or financial condition.

Item 1A.

Risk Factors.

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains "forward-looking statements," within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, concerning management's expectations, goals, objectives, and similar matters. These forward-looking statements may include statements concerning the Company's product and entertainment plans, anticipated product and entertainment performance, business opportunities and strategies, financial and business goals, expectations for achieving the Company's financial and business goals, cost savings and efficiency enhancing initiatives and other objectives and anticipated uses of cash and may be identified by the use of forward-looking words or phrases such as "anticipate," "believe," "could," "expect," "intend," "look forward," "may," "planned," "potential," "should," "will," and "would" or any variations of words with similar meanings. These forward-looking statements are inherently subject to known and unknown risks and uncertainties.

The Company's actual results or experience may differ materially from those expected or anticipated in the forward-looking statements. The Company has included, under Item 1A. of its Annual Report on Form 10-K, for the year ended December 27, 2015 (the "Annual Report"), a discussion of factors which may impact these forward-looking statements. In furtherance, and not in limitation, of the more detailed discussion set forth in the Annual Report, specific factors that might cause such a difference include, but are not limited to:

· the Company's ability to successfully re-imagine, re-invent and re-ignite its existing brands, products and product lines, including through the use of immersive entertainment experiences, to maintain and further their success;

· the Company's ability to successfully design, develop, produce, introduce, market and sell innovative new brands, products and product lines which achieve and sustain interest from retailers and consumers and keep pace with changes in consumer preferences and lifestyles;

· the Company's ability to offer products that (i) expand consumer demand for its product offerings and do not significantly compete with the Company's other existing product offerings and (ii) consumers want to purchase and select over competitors' products;

· the Company's ability to source and ship products in a timely and cost-effective manner and customers' and consumers' acceptance and purchase of those products in quantities and at prices that will be sufficient to profitably recover the Company's costs for developing, marketing and selling those products;

· recessions, other economic downturns or challenging economic conditions affecting the Company's markets which can negatively impact the financial health of the Company's retail customers and consumers, and which can result in lower employment levels, lower consumer disposable income and spending, including lower spending on purchases of the Company's products;

· potential difficulties or delays the Company may experience in implementing its cost savings and efficiency enhancing initiatives or the realization of fewer benefits than are expected from such initiatives;

· currency fluctuations, including movements in foreign exchange rates, which can lower the Company's net revenues and earnings, and significantly impact the Company's costs;

· other economic and public health conditions or regulatory changes in the markets in which the Company and its customers and suppliers operate, which could create delays or increase the Company's costs, such as higher commodity prices, labor costs or higher transportation costs or outbreaks of diseases;

· delays, increased costs or difficulties associated with the development and offering of our or our partners' planned digital applications or media initiatives based on the Company's brands;

· the concentration of the Company's retail customers, potentially increasing the negative impact to the Company of difficulties experienced by any of the Company's retail customers or changes in their purchasing or selling patterns;

· the Company's ability to generate sales during the fourth quarter, particularly during the relatively brief holiday shopping season, which is the period in which the Company derives a substantial portion of its revenues and earnings;

· the inventory policies of the Company's retail customers, including the retailers' potential decisions to lower their inventories, even if it results in lost sales, as well as the concentration of the Company's revenues in the second half and fourth quarter of the year, which coupled with reliance by retailers on quick response inventory management techniques, increases the risk of underproduction of popular items, overproduction of less popular items and failure to achieve compressed shipping schedules;

· work stoppages or disruptions which may impact the Company's ability to manufacture or deliver products in a timely and cost-effective manner;

· concentration of manufacturing of the substantial majority of the Company's products by third party vendors in the People's Republic of China and the associated impact to the Company of social, economic or public health conditions and other factors affecting China, the movement of people and products into and out of China, the cost of producing products in China and the cost of exporting them to the Company's other markets or affecting the exchange rates for the Chinese Renminbi, including, without limitation, the impact of tariffs or other trade restrictions being imposed upon goods manufactured in China;

· consumer interest in and acceptance of the Discovery Family channel, the Company's cable television joint venture with Discovery Communications, the programming appearing on Discovery Family, products related to Discovery Family's programming, and other factors impacting the financial performance of the Discovery Family channel;

· consumer interest in and acceptance of programming and entertainment created by Hasbro Studios and/or our other entertainment partners, as well as products related to such programming and entertainment;

· the ability to develop and distribute compelling entertainment, including television, motion pictures and digital content, based on our brands, in a timely and financially profitable manner, and the success of that entertainment in driving consumer interest in and engagement with our brands;

· the ability of the Company to hire and retain key officers and employees who are critical to the Company's success;

· the costs of complying with product safety and consumer protection requirements worldwide, including the risk that greater regulation in the future may increase such costs, may require changes in the Company's products and/or may impact the Company's ability to sell some products in particular markets in the absence of making changes to such products;

· the risk that one of the Company's third-party manufacturers will not comply with applicable labor, consumer protection, product safety or other laws or regulations, or with aspects of the Company's Global Business Ethics Principles, and that such noncompliance will not be promptly detected, either of which could cause damage to the Company's reputation, harm sales of its products, result in product recalls and potentially create other liabilities for the Company;

· an adverse change in purchasing policies or promotional programs or the bankruptcy or other economic difficulties or lack of success of one or more of the Company's significant retailers comprising its relatively concentrated retail customer base, which could negatively impact the Company's revenues or bad debt exposure;

· the risk that the market appeal of the Company's licensed products will be less than expected or that sales revenue generated by these products will be insufficient to cover the minimum guaranteed royalties or other commitments;

· the risk the Company will lose rights to a significant licensed property or properties, which will harm the Company's revenues and earnings;

· the risk that the Company may face product recalls or product liability suits relating to products it manufactures or distributes which may have significant direct costs to the Company and which may also harm the reputation of the Company and its products, potentially harming future product sales;

· the impact of competition on revenues, margins and other aspects of the Company's business, including the ability to offer Company products which consumers choose to buy instead of competitor products, the ability to secure, maintain and renew popular licenses and the ability to attract and retain employees;

· the risk that anticipated benefits of acquisitions may not occur or be delayed or reduced in their realization;

· the Company's ability to obtain and enforce intellectual property rights both in the United States and other worldwide territories;

· the risk that any litigation or arbitration disputes or government and regulatory investigations could entail significant resources and expense and result in significant fines or other harm to the Company's business or reputation;

· the Company's ability to maintain or obtain external financing on terms acceptable to it in order to meet working capital needs;

· the risk that one or more of the counterparties to the Company's financing arrangements may experience financial difficulties or otherwise be unable or unwilling to allow the Company to access financing under such arrangements;

· the Company's ability to generate sufficient available cash flow to service its outstanding debt;

· restrictions that the Company is subject to under its credit agreement;

· unforeseen circumstances, such as severe softness in or collapse of the retail environment that may result in a significant decline in revenues and operating results of the Company, thereby causing the Company to be in non-compliance with its debt covenants and the Company being unable to utilize borrowings under its revolving credit facility, a circumstance likely to occur when operating shortfalls would result in the Company being in the greatest need of such supplementary borrowings;

· market conditions, third party actions or approvals, the impact of competition and other factors that could delay or increase the cost of implementation of the Company's programs, or alter the Company's actions and reduce actual results;

· the risk that the Company may be subject to governmental penalties, fines, sanctions or additional taxes for failure to comply with applicable laws or regulations in any of the markets in which it operates, or that governmental regulations or requirements will require changes in the manner in which the company does business and/or increase the costs of doing business;

· failure to operate our information systems and implement new technology effectively, as well as maintain the systems and processes designed to protect our electronic data;

· the risk that the Company's reported goodwill may become impaired, requiring the Company to take a charge against its income; or

· other risks and uncertainties as are or may be detailed from time to time in the Company's public announcements and filings with the SEC, such as filings on Forms 8-K, 10-Q and 10-K.

The Company undertakes no obligation to revise the forward-looking statements contained in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q to reflect events or circumstances occurring after the date of the filing of this report.

In February 2015, the Company announced that its Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of an additional $500 million in common stock. Purchases of the Company's common stock may be made from time to time, subject to market conditions. These shares may be repurchased in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions. The Company has no obligation to repurchase shares under this authorization, and the timing, actual number, and value of the shares that are repurchased will depend on a number of factors, including the price of the Company's stock. The Company may suspend or discontinue the program at any time and there is no expiration date.

HASBRO, INC.

RESTATED 2003 STOCK INCENTIVE PERFORMANCE PLAN

STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT FOR EMPLOYEES

(WITH NON-COMPETE)

[____________] GRANT

AGREEMENT, made effective as of [___________], by and between HASBRO, INC., a Rhode Island corporation (the "Company") and the designated option grant recipient (the "Optionee").

WHEREAS, Optionee is an employee of the Company or of a direct or indirect subsidiary of the Company and is eligible to participate in the Company's Restated 2003 Stock Incentive Performance Plan, as amended (the "Plan"), and

WHEREAS, contingent upon and in consideration for the Optionee having executed and delivered to the Company’s designated contact no later than [___________] a Non-Competition, Non-Solicitation and Confidentiality Agreement between the Optionee and the Company in the form provided to the Optionee by the Company, the Compensation Committee (the "Committee") of the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board") acting in accordance with the provisions of the Plan is granting to Optionee a non-qualified stock option to purchase the specified number of shares of Common Stock of the Company, par value $.50 per share (the "Common Stock"), at a price determined by said Committee to be not less than the fair market value of such Common Stock on the date of said grant, subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan and as hereinafter set forth.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and other good and valuable consideration, the parties hereto agree as follows:

W I T N E S S E T H:

1. Contingent upon and in consideration for the Optionee having executed and delivered to the Company’s designated contact no later than [___________] a Non-Competition, Non-Solicitation and Confidentiality Agreement (the “Non-Compete Agreement”) between the Optionee and the Company in the form provided to the Optionee by the Company, the Company hereby grants to the Optionee effective on [___________],

pursuant to the Plan, a copy of which is attached hereto as Appendix A and the provisions of which are incorporated herein as if set forth in full, a stock option to purchase all or any part of the number of shares of Common Stock (the "Shares"), described in Paragraph 3 below (the "Option"), subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan and the Non-Compete Agreement and the additional terms and conditions hereinafter set forth. The Option is evidenced by this Agreement. In the event of any inconsistency between the provisions of this Agreement and the provisions of the Plan, the provisions of the Plan shall govern. Terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meaning set forth in the Plan. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Optionee has not executed and delivered to the Company’s designated contact the Non-Compete Agreement on or before [___________] the Option represented by this Agreement will never take effect and will be null and void.

2. By accepting this award the Optionee hereby acknowledges and agrees that (i) this Option, and any shares the Optionee may acquire under this Option in the future or any of the proceeds of exercising this Option or selling any shares acquired pursuant to this Option, as well as any other incentive compensation the Optionee is granted after adoption of the Clawback Policy, are subject to the Company’s Clawback Policy, which was adopted by the Company’s Board of Directors in October 2012, and (ii) this Option, and any shares the Optionee may acquire under this Option in the future or any of the proceeds of exercising this Option or selling any shares acquired pursuant to this Option, as well as any other incentive compensation the Optionee is granted after adoption of the Clawback Policy, will be subject to the terms of such Clawback Policy, as it may be amended from time to time by the Board in the future. Such acknowledgement and agreement was a material condition to receiving this Option, which would not have been granted to the Optionee otherwise. Additionally, the Optionee acknowledges and agrees that if the Optionee is or becomes subject to the Hasbro, Inc. Executive Ownership Policy, effective as of March 1, 2014, as it may be amended from time to time by the Board in the future (the “Stock Ownership Policy”), then by accepting this award and any shares that the Optionee may acquire in the future pursuant to this award, as well as any other equity-based incentive compensation the Optionee is granted after the Optionee becomes subject to the Stock Ownership Policy, the Optionee agrees that the Optionee will be subject to the terms of the Stock Ownership Policy, including without limitation the requirement to retain an amount equal to at least 50% of the net shares received

as a result of the exercise, vesting or payment of any equity awards granted until the Optionee’s applicable requirement levels are met.

3. This Agreement relates to an Option to purchase the specified number of shares which have been communicated to the Optionee at an exercise price of $[___________] per share (the "Exercise Price Per Share"). (Hereinafter, the term "Exercise Price" shall mean the Exercise Price Per Share multiplied by the number of shares being exercised.) Subject to the provisions of the Plan and of this Agreement, the Optionee shall be entitled to exercise the Option on a cumulative basis until the day preceding the seventh anniversary of the date of the grant in accordance with the following schedule:

Cumulative

Percent of Option

Period Exercisable

[___________] to [___________] 0%

[___________] to [___________] 33 1/3%

[___________] to [___________] 66 2/3%

[___________] to [___________] 100%

In determining the number of shares exercisable in accordance with the above table, fractional shares shall be disregarded.

4. In the event that Optionee wishes to purchase any of the shares then purchasable under the Option as provided in Paragraph 3 hereof, Optionee shall deliver or shall transmit to the Company or to the Company’s designee, in the manner designated by or on behalf of the Company, a notice in the form and/or in the manner designated by or on behalf of the Company or its designee, as the same may be amended or supplemented from time to time by or on behalf the Company, together with a check payable to Hasbro, Inc. or its designee, if applicable, (or accompanied by wire transfer to such account of the Company or its designee as the Company may designate) in United States dollars, in the aggregate amount of the Exercise Price, or shares of Common Stock held by the Optionee for at least six (6) months (duly endorsed to the Company or its designee, if applicable, or accompanied by an executed stock power, in each case with signatures guaranteed by a bank or broker if required by the Company or its designee) having a Fair Market Value (as defined in the Plan) equal to the Exercise Price,

or a combination of such shares having a Fair Market Value less than the Exercise Price and a check in United States dollars for the balance of the Exercise Price.

Unless an Optionee shall have made advance alternative arrangements satisfactory to the Company, or to the Company’s designee, each Optionee shall deliver to the Company or its designee, together with the required notice of exercise and payment of the Exercise Price as aforesaid, a check payable to Hasbro, Inc. or its designee, if applicable, or a wire transfer to such account of the Company or its designee, if applicable, as the Company may designate, in United States dollars, in the amount of any withholding required by law for any and all federal, state, local or foreign taxes payable as a result of such exercise. Each Optionee shall consult with the Company or the Company’s designee in advance of the exercise so as to determine the amount of withholding taxes due. An Optionee may also elect to satisfy any withholding taxes payable as a result of such exercise (the "Taxes"), in whole or in part, either (i) by having the Company or its designee withhold from the shares of Common Stock to be issued upon exercise of the Option or (ii) delivering to the Company or its designee shares of Common Stock already owned by the Optionee and held by the Optionee for at least six (6) months (represented by stock certificates duly endorsed to the Company or accompanied by an executed stock power in each case with signatures guaranteed by a bank or broker to the extent required by the Company or its designee), in each case in an amount whose Fair Market Value on the date of exercise is either equal to the Taxes or less than the Taxes, provided that a check payable to Hasbro, Inc. or its designee, if applicable, or a wire transfer to such account of the Company or its designee as the Company may designate, in United States dollars for the balance of the Taxes is also delivered to the Company, or its designee, at the time of exercise.

In addition, the Optionee shall comply with such other requirements and provide such additional information and documentation as is reasonably required by the Company, or the Company’s designee, to process any exercise of this option and resulting delivery of shares. As soon as practicable after receipt of the notice of exercise, Exercise Price, Taxes, and such other information and documentation as the Company or its designee shall require, the Company or its designee shall deliver or cause to be delivered to Optionee the shares in respect of which the Option was so exercised (less any shares deducted to pay Taxes in accordance with Optionee's election).

5. (a) If an Optionee who is an employee of the Company or of a direct or indirect subsidiary of the Company retires at his or her Normal Retirement Date (as defined below), or an Optionee with at least one year of Credited Service of the Company suffers a permanent physical or mental disability (as defined below) or dies, in each case without the Optionee having fully exercised any Option granted to the Optionee, then the Optionee, the executor, administrator or trustee of the Optionee’s estate, or the Optionee’s legal representative, as the case may be, shall have the right to exercise any Option under the Plan, for a period of not more than one (1) year after such retirement, such disability, or in the case of death, the appointment and qualification of such executor, administrator or trustee (except that in no event other than death may such Option be exercised later than the day preceding the seventh anniversary of the date of the grant of such Option). In each such case, the Option will be exercisable with respect to all or any part of the number of shares to which the Option relates, whether or not said Option was fully exercisable in accordance with the schedule set forth in Section 3 of this Agreement as of the date of such retirement, disability or death. Thereafter, such Option, to the extent not so exercised during such one-year period shall be deemed to have expired regardless of the expiration date otherwise specified in Section 2 hereof.

(b) If an Optionee who is an employee of the Company or of a direct or indirect subsidiary of the Company retires at an Early Retirement Date (as defined below), without the Optionee having fully exercised any Option granted to him or her, the Optionee shall have the right to exercise the unexercised portion of any Option theretofore granted, but only to the extent said Option was then exercisable in accordance with the schedule set forth in Section 3 of this Agreement, for a period of not more than three (3) months after the date of early retirement (but in no event shall the exercise period extend beyond the day preceding the seventh anniversary of the date of grant of the Option). Thereafter, the Option, to the extent not exercised during such three-month period shall be deemed to have expired, regardless of the expiration date otherwise specified in Section 3 hereof.

(c) If an Optionee ceases to be employed by the Company or by a direct or indirect subsidiary of the Company for any reason other than the reasons set forth in subsections (a), (b) and (d) of this Section 5, he or she shall have the right to exercise the unexercised portion of any Option theretofore granted to Optionee, but only to the extent said Option was then exercisable in accordance with the schedule set forth in Section 3 of this Agreement as of the

date of termination, for a period of not more than three (3) months after any such termination (but not, in any event, later than the day preceding the seventh anniversary date of the grant of such Option). Thereafter, such Option, to the extent not so exercised during such three-month period, shall be deemed to have expired, regardless of the expiration date otherwise specified in Section 3 hereof.

For purposes of subsections (a) and (b) above:

* A year of "Credited Service" shall mean a calendar year in which the Optionee is paid for at least 1,000 hours of service (as defined in the frozen Hasbro Pension Plan) as an employee of the Company or of a subsidiary of the Company. A Optionee does not need to be, or have been, a participant in the Hasbro Pension Plan.

* "Early Retirement Date" shall mean: the day on which an Optionee who has attained age fifty-five (55), but has not reached age sixty-five (65), with ten (l0) or more years of Credited Service, retires. An Optionee is eligible for early retirement on the first day of the calendar month coincidental with or immediately following the attainment of age fifty-five (55) and the completion of ten (l0) years of Credited Service, and "early retirement" shall mean retirement by an eligible Optionee at the Early Retirement Date.

* "Normal Retirement Date" shall mean: the day on which an Optionee who has attained age sixty-five (65) with five (5) or more years of Credited Service, retires. An Optionee is eligible for normal retirement on the first day of the calendar month coincident with or immediately following the Optionee's attainment of age sixty-five (65) and completion of five (5) or more years of Credited Service, and "normal retirement" shall mean the retirement by an eligible Optionee at the Normal Retirement Date.

* "permanent physical or mental disability" shall mean: an Optionee's inability to perform his or her job or any position which the Optionee can reasonably perform with his or her background and training by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment which can be expected to result in death or to be of long, continued and indefinite duration.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Optionee acknowledges and agrees that this Option, and any and all rights the Optionee may have hereunder, including any rights with respect to any portion of this Option which may have vested in accordance with the Schedule set forth in Section 3 above, shall terminate immediately upon a termination of the Optionee’s

employment with the Company for cause or for any such other reason that casts such discredit on the Optionee as to make termination of the Option appropriate. Whether an Optionee has been terminated for cause or for such other reason that casts such discredit on the Optionee as to make termination of the Option appropriate will be determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion, and in making this determination the Administrator will not be limited by any definition of “Cause” which appears in the Plan. The Optionee’s agreement to the terms in this Section 5(d) are a material condition to the grant of this Option and this Option would not be granted to the Optionee if the Optionee did not agree to such terms.

6. The adjustment provisions set forth in Section 8 of the Plan shall apply to this Option.

7. This Option shall not be transferable by the Optionee, in whole or in part, except in accordance with Section 7 of the Plan, and shall be exercisable only as hereinbefore provided. Any purported assignment, transfer, pledge, hypothecation or other disposition of the Option or any interest therein contrary to the provisions of the Plan, and the levy of any execution to, or the attachment or similar process upon, the Option or any interest therein, shall be null and void and without effect.

8. Subject to the applicable provisions of the Plan, and particularly to Section 7 of the Plan, this Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of Optionee, Optionee's successors and permitted assigns, and the Company and its successors and assigns.

9. In connection with a Change in Control the Option will be treated in the manner set forth in the Plan, as such Plan has been amended by the Company’s shareholders through the date of such Change in Control.

10. This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations and applicable Federal law.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company and the Optionee have entered into this Agreement effective as of the day and year first above written. By accepting the terms of the award represented by this Agreement through an electronic form offered by the Company, or the Company’s designee, the Optionee hereby agrees to the terms of this Agreement with the same effect as if the Optionee had signed this Agreement.

5. (a) If the Optionee retires at his Normal Retirement Date (as defined below), or the Optionee suffers a Disability (as defined below) or dies, in each case without the Optionee having fully exercised the Option granted to the Optionee, then the Optionee, the executor, administrator or trustee of the Optionee’s estate, or the Optionee’s legal representative, as the case may be, shall have the right to exercise any Option under the Plan, for a period of not more than one (1) year after such retirement, such Disability, or in the case of death, the appointment and qualification of such executor, administrator or trustee (except that in no event other than

Following the end of the Performance Period, the Committee will determine the Company’s cumulative EPS and Revenues and average ROIC over the Performance Period. The Committee will certify the Company’s cumulative EPS, Revenues and average ROIC over the Performance Period as promptly as is reasonably possible following the completion of the Performance Period, but in no event later than 75 days following the completion of the Performance Period.

GAAP: (i) they will be computed excluding the impact of any changes in accounting rules that are effective after the date of this Agreement and which impact the Company’s reported net earnings or Revenues results by $10,000,000 or more, individually or in the aggregate, in any fiscal year during the Performance Period, (ii) they will exclude the impact of any acquisitions (whether paid for in cash, shares of the Company’s stock, other property, or any combination thereof) or dispositions, including the impact of compensation expense associated with the transaction, consummated by the Company during the Performance Period which have, individually or in the aggregate, either a total acquisition price, or total sale price, respectively, of $100 million or more, as such acquisition price or sales price is determined in good faith by the Committee, (iii) they will be calculated excluding the impact of any major discrete restructuring activities, including pension termination or settlement, undertaken by the Company after the date of this Agreement which result in costs or charges to the Company of $10,000,000 or more, individually, in any fiscal year during the Performance Period, (iv) they will be calculated excluding the impact of any payments made or entered into in connection with new license amendments or license extensions, or other contractual arrangements or contract amendments entered into after the date the goals are set, which were not contemplated in the Company’s budget and operating plan used for purposes of determining the performance goals, and which individually exceed $50,000,000 during any plan year, (v) they will be calculated excluding the impact of any judgments, fines, penalties or expenses associated with litigations, arbitrations, or regulatory matters, or settlements of ongoing or potential disputes or regulatory matters, which individually exceed $50,000,000 in any given year and (vi) they will be calculated based on actual results translated at exchange rates established at the beginning of the Performance Period.

5. The target number of shares of Common Stock which may be issuable under this Award in the event of 100% achievement of the pre-established cumulative EPS and Revenue and average ROIC measures over the Performance Period is the specified number of shares communicated to the Participant (the “Target Shares”). The tables appearing on Exhibit A to this Agreement set forth the contingent number of shares of Common Stock which the Participant may actually earn under this Award, as a percentage of the Target Shares, based upon certain performances by the Company in achieving the EPS, Revenues and average ROIC targets.

To compute the actual number of shares of Common Stock, if any, which may be earned by the Participant the respective cumulative EPS and Revenues and average ROIC performances of the Company, as certified by the Committee following completion of the Performance Period, are applied to the tables on Exhibit A. The appropriate boxes in the tables corresponding with the highest threshold achieved by the Company’s actual cumulative EPS and Revenues and average ROIC performance, as so certified by the Committee, sets forth the number of shares of Common Stock, if any, as a percentage of the Target Shares, which are earned by the Participant over the Performance Period due to the Company’s performance in achieving those metrics. The Company’s achievement against its EPS metric is weighted at 34% in determining the final shares earned by the Participant. The Company’s achievement against its Revenues metric is weighted at 33%, and the Company’s achievement against its average ROIC metric is also weighted at 33%.

By way of illustration, if the Company’s cumulative Revenues over the Performance Period are at least $[___________] (but below $[___________]), the percentage of the Revenues target achieved is [___________]% and the percentage of the target number of contingent shares earned due to that performance is [____________]%. If the Company’s cumulative EPS over the Performance Period is at least $[___________] (but less than $[___________]), the percentage of the EPS target achieved is [___________]%, and the percentage of the target number of contingent shares earned due to that EPS performance is [___________]%. If the Company’s average ROIC over the Performance Period is at least [___________]% (but less than [___________]%), the percentage of the average ROIC target achieved is [____________]%, and the percentage of the target number of contingent shares earned due to that ROIC performance is [___________]%. In that case, the Participant would earn (.33*[___________]%) + (.34*[___________]%) + (.33*[___________]%), or [___________]% of the Target Shares of Common Stock subject to the Award. If the number of Target Shares of Common Stock subject to the Award was [____________] shares, the Participant would earn [____________] shares of Common Stock. If the number of shares earned is not a whole number, the Participant will earn the next highest whole number of shares.

6. Once the Company has determined the number of shares of Common Stock, if any, which have been earned by the Participant based on the cumulative EPS and Revenues and average ROIC performance of the Company, the Company or its designee will as promptly as possible thereafter, but in all events not later than the 15^th day of the third month following the end of the calendar year in which the Performance Period ends, issue any such shares of Common Stock which have been deemed earned to the Participant.

7. The Participant shall consult with the Company or its designee in advance of the issuance of any shares pursuant to this Award so as to designate the manner in which the Participant wishes to pay any withholding taxes due, and any such Participant’s designation must be made by the Participant affirmatively to the Company, in the manner specified by the Company, and on or before the date selected by the Company. Each Participant who elects to pay withholding taxes in cash shall deliver to the Company or its designee, a check payable to Hasbro, Inc. or its designee, or a wire transfer to such account of the Company or its designee, as the Company may designate, in United States dollars, in the amount of any withholding required by law for any and all federal, state, local or foreign taxes payable as a result of the Participant earning any shares under this Award or being issued any shares pursuant to the provisions below based on certain other events. Alternatively, a Participant may elect to satisfy the minimum withholding taxes required by law payable as a result of the issuance of any shares pursuant to this Award (the "Taxes"), in whole or in part, either (i) by having the Company withhold from the shares of Common Stock to be issued pursuant to this Award or (ii) delivering to the Company or its designee shares of Common Stock already owned by the Participant and held by the Participant for at least six (6) months (represented by stock certificates duly endorsed to the Company or its designee or accompanied by an executed stock power in each case with signatures guaranteed by a bank or broker to the extent required by the Company or its designee), in each case in an amount whose Fair Market Value on the date the Participant has become entitled to such shares pursuant to this Award is either equal to the Taxes or less than the Taxes, provided that a check payable to Hasbro, Inc. or its designee, or a wire transfer to such

account of the Company or its designee as the Company may designate, in United States dollars for the balance of the Taxes is also delivered to the Company, or its designee, at the time of issuance. If the Participant fails to timely pay the withholding taxes in some other manner pursuant to the preceding provisions, or otherwise does not timely remit payment of the required withholding taxes, then the Participant’s tax withholding requirements will be satisfied through the withholding of shares of Common Stock and to the extent a fractional share needs to be withheld, the Company or its designee will withhold the next highest number of full shares and will remit the value of the fraction of a share which exceeds the required withholding to the Participant. As soon as practicable after receipt of the withholding taxes and any other materials or information reasonably required by the Company or its designee, the Company or its designee shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Participant, using the method of delivery determined by the Company or its designee, the shares payable pursuant to the Award (less any shares deducted to pay Taxes).

8. Until such time, if any, that actual shares of Common Stock become due and are issued to the Participant in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Participant will not have any dividend or voting rights with respect to any shares which may be issuable in the future pursuant to this Award. The Participant’s rights under this Award shall be no greater than those of an unsecured general creditor of the Company, and nothing herein shall be construed as requiring the Company or any other person to establish a trust or to set aside assets to meet the Company’s obligations hereunder.

9. (a) If a Participant who is an employee of the Company or of a direct or indirect subsidiary of the Company dies before the Performance Period is completed, then the Company will issue the number of shares of Common Stock to the executor, administrator or trustee of the Participant’s estate, or the Participant’s legal representative, as the case may be, that is computed by multiplying: (i) the number of shares of Common Stock which would have been issuable to the Participant pursuant to the Award assuming completion of the Performance Period and the Company’s achievement over the Performance Period of cumulative EPS and Revenues and

average ROIC equal to target in each case by (ii) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days from the start of the Performance Period to the date that the Participant died and the denominator of which is the total number of days in the Performance Period. This pro-rated target award will be payable as soon following the Participant’s death as is reasonably practicable. If a Participant dies after the end of the Performance Period, but prior to the delivery of any shares of Common Stock issuable pursuant to this award, then the Company or its designee will issue to the Participant’s estate, or the Participant’s legal representative, as the case may be, the number of shares of Common Stock, if any, which would have otherwise been issuable to the Participant if the Participant had not died.

(b) If a Participant with at least one year of Credited Service of the Company suffers a permanent physical or mental disability (as defined below), before the Performance Period is completed, then the Participant’s Award will remain outstanding during the remaining portion of the Performance Period. At the end of the Performance Period the Committee will compute how many, if any, shares of Common Stock would be issuable pursuant to the Award based on the Company’s performance against its cumulative EPS and Revenues and average ROIC targets. That actual number of shares of Common Stock which would have been earned under the Award over the entire Performance Period will then be multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days from the start of the Performance Period to the date that the Participant became disabled and the denominator of which is the total number of days in the Performance Period. This pro-rated number of shares will then be issuable to the Participant in the same manner as shares are issued to other Participants.

(c) If a Participant who is an employee of the Company or of a direct or indirect subsidiary of the Company retires at either an Early Retirement Date or a Normal Retirement Date (each as defined below), before the Performance Period is completed, then the Participant’s Award will remain outstanding during the remaining portion of the Performance Period. At the end of the Performance Period the Committee will compute how many, if any, shares of Common Stock would be issuable pursuant to the Award based on the Company’s performance

against its cumulative EPS and Revenues and average ROIC targets. That actual number of shares of Common Stock which would have been earned under the Award over the entire Performance Period will then be multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days from the start of the Performance Period to the date that the Participant retired and the denominator of which is the total number of days in the Performance Period. This pro-rated number of shares will then be issuable to the Participant in the same manner as shares are issued to other Participants.

(d) If a Participant ceases to be employed by the Company or by a direct or indirect subsidiary of the Company before the end of the Performance Period for any reason other than the reasons set forth in subsections (a), (b) and (c) of this Section 9, including, without limitation, if the Participant’s employment is terminated by the Company for cause or for such other reason that casts such discredit on the Participant as to make termination of the Participant’s employment appropriate (cause or such other reasons being determined in the sole discretion of the Administrator and the Administrator not being limited to any definition of Cause in the Plan), the Award will be forfeited and the Participant will not have any further

rights under the Award, including, without limitation, any rights to receive shares of Common Stock.

For purposes of subsections (a), (b) and (c) above:

* A year of "Credited Service" shall mean a calendar year in which the Participant is paid for at least 1,000 hours of service (as defined in the frozen Hasbro Pension Plan) as an employee of the Company or of a subsidiary of the Company. A Participant does not need to be, or have been, a participant in the Hasbro Pension Plan.

* "Early Retirement Date" shall mean: the day on which a Participant who has attained age fifty-five (55), but has not reached age sixty-five (65), with ten (l0) or more years of Credited Service, retires. A Participant is eligible for early retirement on the first day of the calendar month coincidental with or immediately following the attainment of

age fifty-five (55) and the completion of ten (l0) years of Credited Service, and "early retirement" shall mean retirement by an eligible Participant at the Early Retirement Date.

* "Normal Retirement Date" shall mean: the day on which a Participant who has attained age sixty-five (65) with five (5) or more years of Credited Service, retires. A Participant is eligible for normal retirement on the first day of the calendar month coincident with or immediately following the Participant's attainment of age sixty-five (65) and completion of five (5) or more years of Credited Service, and "normal retirement" shall mean the retirement by an eligible Participant at the Normal Retirement Date.

* "permanent physical or mental disability" shall mean: a Participant's inability to perform his or her job or any position which the Participant can reasonably perform with his or her background and training by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment which can be expected to result in death or to be of long, continued and indefinite duration, all as determined by the Committee in its discretion.

10. In the event of a Change in Control (as defined in the Plan) prior to the end of the Performance Period, this Award will be treated in accordance with the provisions of the Plan applicable to a Change in Control, provided, however, that for purposes of computing the payment due to the Participant as a result of a termination of employment following a Change in Control under the terms set forth in the Plan, (i) the full number of Target Shares will be used (as opposed to the actual number of shares, if any, that may be issuable based on performance through the date of the termination of employment following the Change in Control) and (ii) no pro-ration of the Award will be applied to account for less than the full Performance Period having had elapsed as of the date of the termination of employment following a Change in Control.

11. The adjustment provisions set forth in Section 8 of the Plan shall apply to this Award.

12. This Award shall not be transferable by the Participant, in whole or in part, except in accordance with Section 7 of the Plan. Any purported assignment, transfer, pledge, hypothecation or other disposition of the Award or any interest therein contrary to the provisions of the Plan, and the levy of any execution to, or the attachment or similar process upon, the Award or any interest therein, shall be null and void and without effect.

13. Subject to the applicable provisions of the Plan, and particularly to Section 7 of the Plan, this Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of Participant, Participant 's successors and permitted assigns, and the Company and its successors and assigns.

14. This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations and applicable Federal law.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Company and the Participant have entered this Agreement effective as of the day and year first above written. By accepting the terms of the award represented by this Agreement through an electronic form offered by the Company, or the Company’s designee, the Participant hereby agrees to the terms of this Agreement with the same effect as if the Participant had signed this Agreement.

RESTATED 2003 STOCK INCENTIVE PERFORMANCE PLAN

CONTINGENT STOCK PERFORMANCE AWARD

(THREE PERFORMANCE METRICS WITHOUT NON-COMPETE)

[______________] GRANT

BRIAN GOLDNER

WHEREAS, the Participant is eligible to participate in the Company's Restated 2003 Stock Incentive Performance Plan, as amended (the "Plan"), and

WHEREAS, the Compensation Committee (the "Committee") of the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Board"), acting in accordance with the provisions of the Plan, is granting to Participant a contingent stock performance award dated [____________] designed to reward the Participant for the Participant’s efforts in contributing to the Company’s achievement of certain stated financial goals, and

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of these premises and other good and valuable consideration, the parties hereto agree as follows:

W I T N E S S E T H:

1. The Company hereby grants to the Participant effective on [____________], and pursuant to the Plan, a copy of which is attached hereto as Appendix A and the provisions of which are incorporated herein as if set forth in full, a contingent stock performance award (the “Award”) subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth in the Plan and the additional terms and conditions hereinafter set forth. The Award is evidenced by this Agreement. In the event of any inconsistency between the provisions of this Agreement and the provisions of the Plan, the provisions of the Plan shall govern, provided that to the extent the provisions of the Plan or this Agreement are inconsistent with the terms of the Employment Agreement (as defined below), the provisions of the Employment Agreement shall govern. Terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the meaning set forth in the Plan.

2. By accepting this Award the Participant hereby acknowledges and agrees that (i) this Award, and any shares the Participant may acquire under this Award in the future or any of the proceeds of selling any shares acquired pursuant to this Award, as well as any other incentive compensation the Participant is granted after adoption of the Clawback Policy, are subject to the Company’s Clawback Policy, which was adopted by the Company’s Board of Directors in October 2012, and (ii) this Award, and any shares the Participant may acquire under this Award in the future or any of the proceeds of selling any shares acquired pursuant to this Award, as well as any other incentive compensation the Participant is granted after adoption of the Clawback Policy, will be subject to the terms of such Clawback Policy, as it may be amended from time to time by the Board in the future. Such acknowledgement and agreement was a material condition to receiving this Award, which would not have been granted to the Participant otherwise. Additionally, the Participant acknowledges and agrees that if the Participant is or becomes subject to the Hasbro, Inc. Executive Stock Ownership Policy, effective as of March 1, 2014, as it may be amended from time to time by the Board in the future (the “Stock Ownership Policy”), then by accepting this Award and any shares that the Participant may acquire in the future pursuant to this Award, as well as any other equity-based incentive compensation the Participant is granted after the Participant becomes subject to the Stock Ownership Policy, the Participant agrees that the Participant will be subject to the terms of the Stock Ownership Policy, including without limitation the requirement to retain an amount equal to at least 50% of the net shares received as a result of the exercise, vesting or

payment of any equity awards granted until the Participant’s applicable requirement levels are met.

EPS $[____________]

Revenues $[____________]

Average ROIC [____________]%

4. For purposes of this Award, the Company’s cumulative EPS and Revenues and average ROIC over the Performance Period will be computed on a consolidated basis in the same manner used by the Company in computing its consolidated financial performance under generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), except for the following deviations from GAAP: (i) they will be computed excluding the impact of any changes in accounting rules that are effective after the date of this Agreement and which impact the Company’s reported net earnings or Revenues results by $10,000,000 or more, individually or in the aggregate, in any fiscal year during the Performance Period, (ii) they will exclude the impact of any acquisitions (whether paid for in cash, shares of the Company’s stock, other property, or any combination thereof) or dispositions, including the impact of compensation expense associated with the transaction, consummated by the Company during the Performance Period which have,

individually or in the aggregate, either a total acquisition price, or total sale price, respectively, of $100 million or more, as such acquisition price or sales price is determined in good faith by the Committee, (iii) they will be calculated excluding the impact of any major discrete restructuring activities, including pension termination or settlement, undertaken by the Company after the date of this Agreement which result in costs or charges to the Company of $10,000,000 or more, individually, in any fiscal year during the Performance Period, (iv) they will be calculated excluding the impact of any payments made or entered into in connection with new license amendments or license extensions, or other contractual arrangements or contract amendments entered into after the date the goals are set, which were not contemplated in the Company’s budget and operating plan used for purposes of determining the performance goals, and which individually exceed $50,000,000 during any plan year, (v) they will be calculated excluding the impact of any judgments, fines, penalties or expenses associated with litigations, arbitrations, or regulatory matters, or settlements of ongoing or potential disputes or regulatory matters, which individually exceed $50,000,000 in any given year and (vi) they will be calculated based on actual results translated at exchange rates established at the beginning of the Performance Period.

earned by the Participant over the Performance Period due to the Company’s performance in achieving those metrics. The Company’s achievement against its EPS metric is weighted at 34% in determining the final shares earned by the Participant. The Company’s achievement against its Revenues metric is weighted at 33%, and the Company’s achievement against its average ROIC metric is also weighted at 33%.

By way of illustration, if the Company’s cumulative Revenues over the Performance Period are at least $[____________] (but below $[____________]), the percentage of the Revenues target achieved is [____________]% and the percentage of the target number of contingent shares earned due to that performance is [____________]%. If the Company’s cumulative EPS over the Performance Period is at least $[____________] (but less than $[____________]), the percentage of the EPS target achieved is [____________]%, and the percentage of the target number of contingent shares earned due to that EPS performance is [____________]%. If the Company’s average ROIC over the Performance Period is at least [____________]% (but less than [____________]%), the percentage of the average ROIC target achieved is [____________]%, and the percentage of the target number of contingent shares earned due to that ROIC performance is [____________]%. In that case, the Participant would earn (.33*[____________]%) + (.34*[____________]%) + (.33*[____________]%), or [____________]% of the Target Shares of Common Stock subject to the Award. If the number of Target Shares of Common Stock subject to the Award was [____________] shares, the Participant would earn [____________] shares of Common Stock. If the number of shares earned is not a whole number, the Participant will earn the next highest whole number of shares.

7. The Participant shall consult with the Company or its designee in advance of the issuance of any shares pursuant to this Award so as to designate the manner in which the

Participant wishes to pay any withholding taxes due, and any such Participant’s designation must be made by the Participant affirmatively to the Company, in the manner specified by the Company, and on or before the date selected by the Company. Each Participant who elects to pay withholding taxes in cash shall deliver to the Company or its designee, a check payable to Hasbro, Inc. or its designee, or a wire transfer to such account of the Company or its designee, as the Company may designate, in United States dollars, in the amount of any withholding required by law for any and all federal, state, local or foreign taxes payable as a result of the Participant earning any shares under this Award or being issued any shares pursuant to the provisions below based on certain other events. Alternatively, a Participant may elect to satisfy the minimum withholding taxes required by law payable as a result of the issuance of any shares pursuant to this Award (the "Taxes"), in whole or in part, either (i) by having the Company withhold from the shares of Common Stock to be issued pursuant to this Award or (ii) delivering to the Company or its designee shares of Common Stock already owned by the Participant and held by the Participant for at least six (6) months (represented by stock certificates duly endorsed to the Company or its designee or accompanied by an executed stock power in each case with signatures guaranteed by a bank or broker to the extent required by the Company or its designee), in each case in an amount whose Fair Market Value on the date the Participant has become entitled to such shares pursuant to this Award is either equal to the Taxes or less than the Taxes, provided that a check payable to Hasbro, Inc. or its designee, or a wire transfer to such account of the Company or its designee as the Company may designate, in United States dollars for the balance of the Taxes is also delivered to the Company, or its designee, at the time of issuance. If the Participant fails to make a timely pay the withholding taxes in some other manner pursuant to the preceding provisions, or otherwise does not timely remit payment of the required withholding taxes, then the Participant’s tax withholding requirements will be satisfied through the withholding of shares of Common Stock and to the extent a fractional share needs to be withheld, the Company or its designee will withhold the next highest number of full shares and will remit the value of the fraction of a share which exceeds the required withholding to the

Participant. As soon as practicable after receipt of the withholding taxes and any other materials or information reasonably required by the Company or its designee, the Company or its designee shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Participant, using the method of delivery determined by the Company or its designee, the shares payable pursuant to the Award (less any shares deducted to pay Taxes).

9. (a) If the Participant’s employment is terminated by death or because of Disability (as defined in the Amended and Restated Employment Agreement, dated October 4, 2012, between the Participant and the Company, as such agreement may be amended from time to time (hereafter referred to as the “Amended Employment Agreement”)), before the Performance Period is completed, then the Participant’s Award will remain outstanding during the remaining portion of the Performance Period. At the end of the Performance Period the Committee will compute how many, if any, shares of Common Stock would be issuable pursuant to the Award based upon the Company’s performance against its cumulative EPS and Revenues and average ROIC targets, all over the Performance Period. That actual number of shares of Common Stock earned over the full Performance Period will then be issuable to the Participant in the same manner as shares are issued to other participants.

(b) If the Participant’s employment is terminated at the election of the Company (or its successor, in the event there has been a Change in Control) without Cause or at the election of the Participant with Good Reason (as the terms Cause, Good Reason and Change in Control are defined in the Amended Employment Agreement, it being understood the Amended Employment

Agreement provides different definitions of Cause and Good Reason based upon whether the termination occurs within three (3) years following a Change in Control, or occurs outside such a window), and provided Participant executes a full and complete Release (as defined in the Amended Employment Agreement) which becomes effective, all in accordance with the Amended Employment Agreement, then the Participant’s Award will remain outstanding during the remaining portion of the Performance Period. At the end of the Performance Period the Committee will compute how many, if any, shares of Common Stock would be issuable pursuant to the Award based upon the Company’s performance against its cumulative EPS and Revenues and average ROIC targets, all over the Performance Period. That actual number of shares of Common Stock which would have been earned under the Award over the entire Performance Period, if any, will then be multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days from the start of the Performance Period to the date that the Participant’s employment was terminated and the denominator of which is the total number of days in the Performance Period. This pro-rated number of shares will then be issuable to the Participant in the same manner as shares are issued to other participants.

(c) If the Participant remains employed with the Company through December 31, 2017 and retires from employment with the Company following December 31, 2017 but before the Performance Period is completed, then the Participant’s Award will remain outstanding during the remaining portion of the Performance Period. At the end of the Performance Period the Committee will compute how many, if any, shares of Common Stock would be issuable pursuant to the Award based on the Company’s performance against its cumulative EPS and Revenues and average ROIC targets. That actual number of shares of Common Stock which would have been earned under the Award over the entire Performance Period will then be multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days from the start of the Performance Period to the date that the Participant retired and the denominator of which is the total number of days in the Performance Period. This pro-rated number of shares will then be issuable to the Participant in the same manner as shares are issued to other Participants.

(d) If the Participant’s employment is terminated (A) by the Company for Cause (as defined in the Amended Employment Agreement) or (B) at Participant’s election prior to December 31, 2017 and for other than Good Reason (as defined in the Amended Employment Agreement), then the Award will be forfeited and become null and void and the Participant will not have any further rights under the Award, including, without limitation, any rights to receive shares of Common Stock.

10. The adjustment provisions set forth in Section 8 of the Plan shall apply to this Award.

11. This Award shall not be transferable by the Participant, in whole or in part, except in accordance with Section 7 of the Plan. Any purported assignment, transfer, pledge, hypothecation or other disposition of the Award or any interest therein contrary to the provisions of the Plan, and the levy of any execution to, or the attachment or similar process upon, the Award or any interest therein, shall be null and void and without effect.

12. Subject to the applicable provisions of the Plan, and particularly to Section 7 of the Plan, this Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of Participant, Participant 's successors and permitted assigns, and the Company and its successors and assigns.

13. This Agreement shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations and applicable Federal law.

Exhibit A

Exhibit 10.5

RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AGREEMENT

(WITH NON-COMPETE)

[_____________]GRANT

THIS AGREEMENT, entered into effective as of the Grant Date (as defined in paragraph 1), is made by and between the Participant (as defined in paragraph 1) and Hasbro, Inc. (the “Company”).

WHEREAS, the Company maintains the Restated 2003 Stock Incentive Performance Plan, as amended (the “Plan”), a copy of which is annexed hereto as Exhibit A and the provisions of which are incorporated herein as if set forth in full, and the Participant has been selected by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Committee”), which administers the Plan, to receive an award of restricted stock units under the Plan;

NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS AGREED, by and between the Company and the Participant, as follows:

1. Terms of Award. The following terms used in this Agreement shall have the meanings set forth in this paragraph 1:

A. The “Participant” is the designated restricted stock unit award recipient.

B. The “Grant Date” is [___________].

C. The “Vesting Period” is the period beginning on the Grant Date and ending on [_____], with the Participant becoming vested, subject to the terms of this Agreement, in one-third (33 1/3%) of the Stock Units and the Stock Unit Account on each of [_],[_] and [_____] (each of such dates referred to hereafter as an “Annual Vesting Date”).

D. Stock Units are notional shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $.50 per share (“Common Stock”) granted under this Agreement and subject to the terms of this Agreement and the Plan.

E. Contingent upon and in consideration for the Participant having executed and delivered to the Company’s designated contact no later than [___________] a Non-Competition, Non-Solicitation and Confidentiality Agreement (the “Non-Compete Agreement”) between the Participant and the Company in the form provided to the Participant by the Company, the Company hereby grants to the Participant effective on the Grant Date, pursuant to the Plan, the Stock Units. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Participant has not executed and delivered to the Company’s designated contact the Non-Compete Agreement on or before [___________], the grant of the Stock Units represented by this Agreement will never take effect and will be null and void.

F. By accepting this Award the Participant hereby acknowledges and agrees that (i) this Award, and any Stock Units or shares of Common Stock the Participant may become entitled to under this Award in the future, and any proceeds from selling any such shares of Common Stock, as well as any other incentive compensation the Participant is granted after adoption of the Clawback Policy, are subject to the Company’s Clawback Policy, which was adopted by the Company’s Board of Directors in October 2012, and (ii) this Award, and any Stock Units or shares of Common Stock the Participant may become entitled to under this Award in the future, and any proceeds from selling any such shares of Common Stock, as well as any other incentive compensation the Participant is granted after adoption of the Clawback Policy, will be subject to the terms of such Clawback Policy, as it may be amended from time to time by the Board in the future. Such acknowledgement and agreement was a material condition to receiving this Award, which would not have been made to the Participant otherwise. Additionally, the Participant acknowledges and agrees that if the Participant is or become subject to the Hasbro, Inc. Executive Stock Ownership Policy, effective as of March 1, 2014, as it may be amended from time to time by the Board in the future (the “Stock Ownership Policy”), then by accepting this Award and any shares that the Participant may acquire in the future pursuant to this Award, as well as any other equity-based incentive compensation the Participant is granted after the Participant becomes subject to the Stock Ownership Policy, the Participant agrees that the Participant will be subject to the terms of the Stock Ownership Policy, including without limitation the requirement to retain an amount equal to at least 50% of the net shares received as a result of the exercise, vesting or payment of any equity awards granted until the Participant’s applicable requirement levels are met.

G. For record-keeping purposes only, the Company shall maintain an account with respect to this restricted stock unit award (a “Stock Unit Account”) for the Participant where Stock Units related to this award shall be accumulated and accounted for by the Company. Without limiting the provisions of Section 8(b) of the Plan, in the event the Company pays a stock dividend or reclassifies or divides or combines its outstanding Common Stock then an appropriate adjustment shall be made in the number of Stock Units held in the Stock Unit Account. The Stock Unit Account will reflect notional fractional shares of Common Stock to the nearest hundredth of a share on a one Stock Unit for one share of Common Stock basis.

Other terms used in this Agreement are defined pursuant to paragraph 7 or elsewhere in this Agreement.

2. Award. The Participant is hereby granted the number of Stock Units set forth in paragraph 1.

3. No Dividends and No Voting Rights. The Participant shall not be entitled to any (i) dividends, other than stock dividends (which will be reflected in an adjustment to the number of Units), or (ii) voting rights with respect to the Stock Units or the Stock Unit Account.

4. Vesting and Forfeiture of Units. Subject to earlier vesting (either in whole or in part as applicable) only in the situations and under the terms which are explicitly provided for in the following paragraphs, on each Annual Vesting Date the Participant shall become vested in the portion of the Stock Units and Stock Unit Account subject to this Agreement that is specified in

Section 1.C. of this Agreement, provided that the Participant has remained employed and remains employed with the Company through and including the last day of the period ending on the applicable Annual Vesting Date.

A. If a Change in Control (as defined below), occurs prior to the end of the Vesting Period, then in connection with such Change in Control the Stock Units will be treated in the manner set forth in the Plan, as such Plan has been amended by the Company’s shareholders through the date of such Change in Control.

B. The Participant shall otherwise become vested in a pro-rata portion of any then unvested Stock Units and Stock Unit Account subject to this Agreement as of the Participant’s Date of Termination prior to the end of the Vesting Period, but only if the Participant’s Date of Termination occurs by reason of either (i) the Participant’s retirement at his or her Normal Retirement Date (as defined below) or Early Retirement Date (as defined below), or (ii) for a Participant who has at least one year of Credited Service (as defined below), the Participant’s death or Participant’s suffering a Permanent Physical or Mental Disability (as defined below). In the case of a Termination of Employment covered by this paragraph 4.B., the Participant will become entitled, as of the date of the Termination of Employment, to a portion of any then unvested Stock Units and Stock Unit Account subject to this Agreement, which portion is computed by multiplying the full number of any then unvested Stock Units subject to this Agreement by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days in the remaining Vesting Period after the most recent Annual Vesting Date that has been achieved, if any (i.e. the number of days elapsed since the Grant Date or any later Annual Vesting Date that has occurred) which have already elapsed as of the day of the Participant’s Termination of Employment, inclusive of the actual day on which there is a Termination of Employment, and the denominator of which is the total number of days in the Vesting Period remaining since either the Grant Date or any later Annual Vesting Date that has occurred. The Participant will forfeit that portion of the Stock Unit Account which has not vested in accordance with the foregoing provision.

C. If the Participant’s Date of Termination occurs prior to the end of the Vesting Period for any reason other than the reasons set forth in the preceding Section 4.B., including, without limitation, if the Participant’s employment is terminated by the Company for cause or for such other reason that casts such discredit on the Participant as to make termination of the Participant’s employment appropriate (cause or such other reasons being determined in the sole discretion of the Administrator and the Administrator not being limited to any definition of Cause in the Plan), then the remaining award of Stock Units pursuant to this Agreement shall be forfeited and terminate effective as of such Date of Termination, and the Participant shall not be entitled to any further stock pursuant to this award or any other benefits of this award.

D. The Stock Units and the Stock Unit Account may not be sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or otherwise encumbered, except to the extent otherwise provided by either the terms of the Plan or by the Committee.

5. Settlement in Shares of Common Stock. Provided that a portion of the Participant’s interest in the Stock Units and the Stock Unit Account has vested in accordance with the provisions of Section 4 above, the Participant’s Stock Unit Account, or applicable portion

thereof, shall be converted into actual shares of Common Stock upon the date of such vesting. Such conversion: (i) if it occurs in connection with a termination of the Participant’s employment following a Change in Control under the conditions set forth in the Plan, will occur upon the Date of Termination, (ii) will occur upon the Date of Termination, in the case that Section 4.B. is applicable, or (iii) will occur on the applicable Annual Vesting Date, in the case that the Participant has remained employed through the end of the applicable Annual Vesting Date. The conversion will occur on the basis of one share of Common Stock for every one Stock Unit which vests. Such shares of Common Stock shall be registered in the name of the Participant effective as of the date of conversion and delivered to the Participant within a reasonable time thereafter in the manner determined by the Company in the Company’s election, which may be by electronic delivery of such shares of Common Stock to an account of the Participant or in such other manner as designated by the Company, subject to any different treatment called for or allowed by the terms of the Plan relating to a Change in Control. To the extent that there are notional fractional shares of Common Stock in a Stock Unit Account which have vested upon settlement, such notional fractional shares shall be rounded to the nearest whole share in determining the number of shares of Common Stock to be received upon conversion.

6. Income Taxes. The Participant shall pay to the Company promptly upon request, and in any event at the time the Participant recognizes taxable income in respect of the shares of Common Stock received by the Participant upon the conversion of all or a portion of the Participant’s Stock Unit Account, an amount equal to the taxes the Company determines it is required to withhold under applicable tax laws with respect to such shares of Common Stock. Such payment shall be made in the form of cash, the delivery of shares of Common Stock already owned or by withholding such number of actual shares otherwise deliverable pursuant to this Agreement as is equal to the withholding tax due, or in a combination of such methods. In the event that the Participant does not affirmatively instruct the Company ahead of the applicable vesting date that he or she wishes to pay withholding taxes in another manner specified above, the Company shall withhold shares from the settlement of the Award.

7. Definitions. For purposes of this Agreement, the terms used in this Agreement shall be subject to the following:

A. Change in Control. The term “Change in Control” shall have the meaning ascribed to it in the Plan.

B. Credited Service. A year of “Credited Service” shall mean a calendar year in which the Participant is paid for at least 1,000 hours of service (as defined in the frozen Hasbro Pension Plan) as an employee of the Company or of a Subsidiary of the Company. A Participant does not need to be, or have been, a participant in the Hasbro Pension Plan.

C. Date of Termination. The Participant’s “Date of Termination” shall be the first day occurring on or after the Grant Date on which the Participant is not employed (a “Termination of Employment”) by the Company or any entity directly or indirectly controlled by the Company (a “Subsidiary”), regardless of the reason for the termination of employment; provided that a termination of employment shall not be deemed to occur by reason of a transfer of the Participant between the Company and a Subsidiary or between two Subsidiaries; and

further provided that the Participant’s employment shall not be considered terminated while the Participant is on a leave of absence from the Company or a Subsidiary approved by the Participant’s employer. If, as a result of a sale or other transaction, the Participant’s employer ceases to be a Subsidiary (and the Participant’s employer is or becomes an entity that is separate from the Company), the occurrence of such transaction shall be treated as the Participant’s Date of Termination caused by the Participant being discharged by the employer.

D. Early Retirement Date. The term "Early Retirement Date" shall mean: the day on which a Participant who has attained age fifty-five (55), but has not reached age sixty-five (65), with ten (l0) or more years of Credited Service, retires. A Participant is eligible for early retirement on the first day of the calendar month coincidental with or immediately following the attainment of age fifty-five (55) and the completion of ten (l0) years of Credited Service, and "early retirement" shall mean retirement by an eligible Participant at the Early Retirement Date.

E. Normal Retirement Date. The term “Normal Retirement Date” shall mean the day on which a Participant who has attained age sixty-five (65), with five (5) years of Credited Service, retires. A Participant is eligible for normal retirement on the first day of the calendar month coincident with or immediately following the Participant’s attainment of age sixty-five (65) and completion of five (5) years of Credited Service, and “normal retirement” shall mean the retirement by an eligible Participant at the Normal Retirement Date.

F. Permanent Physical or Mental Disability. The term “Permanent Physical or Mental Disability” shall mean the Participant’s inability to perform his or her job or any position which the Participant can perform with his or her background and training by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment which can be expected to result in death or to be of long, continued and indefinite duration.

G. Plan Definitions. Except where the context clearly implies or indicates the contrary, a word, term, or phrase used in the Plan is similarly used in this Agreement.

8. Heirs and Successors. This Agreement shall be binding upon, and inure to the benefit of, the Company and its successors and assigns, including upon any person acquiring, whether by merger, consolidation, purchase of assets or otherwise, all or substantially all of the Company’s assets and business, and the Participant and the successors and permitted assigns of the Participant, including but not limited to, the estate of the Participant and the executor, administrator or trustee of such estate, and the guardian or legal representative of the Participant.

9. Administration. The authority to manage and control the operation and administration of this Agreement shall be vested in the Committee, and the Committee shall have all powers with respect to this Agreement as it has with respect to the Plan. Any interpretation of the Agreement by the Committee and any decision made by it with respect to the Agreement is final and binding.

10. Plan Governs. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the terms of this Agreement shall be subject to the terms of the Plan.

11. No Employment Contract. The Participant acknowledges that this Agreement does not constitute a contract for employment for any period of time and does not modify the at will nature of the Participant’s employment with the Company, pursuant to which both the Company and the Participant may terminate the employment relationship at any time, for any or no reason, with or without notice.

12. Amendment. This Agreement may be amended by written Agreement of the Participant and the Company, without the consent of any other person.

13. Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the Plan contain the entire agreement and understanding of the parties hereto with respect of the award contained herein and therein and supersede all prior communications, representations and negotiations in respect thereof.

14. Severability. The invalidity or unenforceability of any provision of this Agreement shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any other provision of this Agreement, and each other provision of this Agreement shall be severable and enforceable to the extent permitted by law and any court determining the unenforceability of any provisions shall have the power to reduce the scope or duration of such provision to render such provision enforceable.

(g) If any restriction set forth in this Section 2 is found by any court of competent jurisdiction to be unenforceable because it extends for too long a period of time or over

3. Date of Termination.

Your “Date of Termination” shall be the first day after you are not employed by the Company or any entities directly or indirectly controlled by the Company (a “Subsidiary” or “Subsidiaries”), regardless of the reason for the termination of your employment; provided that your employment shall not be considered terminated by reason of your transfer between the Company and a Subsidiary or between two Subsidiaries; and further provided that your employment shall not be considered terminated while you are on an approved leave of absence from the Company or a Subsidiary.
