Rich Sargente

Dear Mr. Sargente:

This letter sets forth an offer made by Skullcandy (the “Company”) to Rich Sargente (“Employee”) of special severance benefits in exchange for the following agreement (“Agreement”). The terms of the offer are as follows:

1. Termination of Employment. Employee acknowledges Employee’s employment with the Company was terminated, effective August 18, 2013 (“Separation Date”), after which date Employee performed no further duties, functions or services for the Company.

2. Payment of Moneys Owed. Employee acknowledges the Company has paid all compensation owed to Employee as a result of Employee’s employment with the Company, including but not limited to Employee’s salary/wages through August 18, 2013, all accrued but unused vacation/flex time through that date, all commissions and/or bonuses owed to Employee, and all business expenses, if any, incurred by Employee as a result of Employee’s employment with the Company. Employee further agrees that he has no present claim for wages or benefits, and that he is not and would not be entitled to any future wages, monies, or benefits pursuant to any claims.

3. Additional Payments. The Company agrees to pay Employee additional amounts in the gross sum of $37,914.23, as a transition bonus for continuing his role with the Company through August 18, 2013, and $63,190.38, as severance, less statutorily-required deductions and outstanding debts owed to the Company (if any). The transition bonus is payable in a lump sum on August 30, 2013 and the severance is payable in a lump sum within fourteen (14) days following Employee’s execution of this Agreement. The payment of these additional amounts do not constitute continued employment by the Company, and is more than Employee is otherwise entitled to.

4. Medical Insurance Continuation. If Employee elects to continue coverage for himself and his family under the Company’s group medical plan pursuant to COBRA, the Company shall pay the premiums to continue such coverage from September 1, 2013 through November 30, 2013, for a period of three (3) months. Thereafter, Employee shall be solely responsible for any COBRA payments or continued coverage under the Company’s medical plan (under the terms of COBRA)

5. Acknowledgment of Full Payment. Employee acknowledges the payments and arrangements described in paragraphs 2 through 4 above shall constitute full and complete satisfaction of any and all amounts due and owing to Employee as a result of Employee’s employment with the Company and/or the termination of employment, and that in the absence of this Agreement, Employee would not be entitled to, among other things, the payments specified in paragraph 3 above and the continued medical insurance coverage specified in the first sentence of paragraph 4 above.

7. Unemployment Benefits. The Company will not contest Employee’s application for unemployment insurance benefits, if any, as a result of this Agreement. However, if requested by the appropriate agency, the Company will respond truthfully regarding the reasons for separation if required. The Company does not admit or deny, by so doing, that Employee had a right to receive unemployment insurance benefits.

8. Non-Disclosure of Confidential Information.
