heirs, executors or administrators and all persons acting by, through, under,
or in concert with them, or any of them (each, a "Mossimo Released Party" and
collectively, "Mossimo Released Parties"), of and from any and all manner of
action or actions, causes or causes of action, in law or in equity, suits,
debts, liens, contracts, agreements, promises, liabilities, claims, demands,
damages, losses, costs or expenses, of any nature whatsoever, known or
unknown, fixed or contingent (the "Claims"), which Lewis now has or may
hereafter have against Mossimo Released Parties by reason of any and all

Date, except as expressly provided herein; provided, however, that
notwithstanding the foregoing release if any Mossimo Released Party (other

PRINCIPLES OF SIMILAR EFFECT.

release of the ADEA claims under this Agreement:

an attorney.
(6) Lewis will have the right to revoke
the Agreement under the ADEA within seven (7) days of signing the Agreement. In
the event that Lewis elects to revoke the Agreement, he shall deliver within the
time period herein to the Chairperson of the Compensation Committee of the
Company's Board of Directors, a writing stating that he is revoking the
Agreement. In the event the Agreement is revoked, this Agreement will be null
and void in its entirety.

and warrants to the Mossimo Released Parties that there has been no assignment
or other transfer of any interest in any Claim which Lewis may have against the
Mossimo Released Parties, or any of them, and Lewis agrees to indemnify and hold
the Mossimo Released Parties harmless from any liability, claims, demands,
damages, costs, expenses and attorneys' fees incurred as a result of any person

hereafter commences, joins in, or in any manner seeks relief through any suit
arising out of, based upon, or relating to any of the Claims released hereunder

effect of this Agreement knowingly, voluntarily and with the intent of being
bound by this Agreement.
8. SEVERABILITY. If any provision of this Agreement
shall be found invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part, then such
provisions shall be deemed to be modified or restricted to the extent and in the
manner necessary to render the same valid and enforceable or shall be deemed
excised from this Agreement as such circumstances may require, and this

as if such provision had been originally incorporated herein as so modified or

dispute arising out of the terms of this Agreement and/or any dispute arising
out of or relating to Lewis' employment with the Company in any way, to private
and confidential arbitration by a single neutral arbitrator through
JAMS/Endispute. Subject to the terms of this Section 10, the arbitration
proceedings shall be governed by the then current JAMS/Endispute rules governing
employment disputes. The decision of the arbitrator shall be final and binding
on all Parties, and judgment thereon may be entered in any court having
jurisdiction. The Parties shall share equally the arbitrator's fee and all costs
of services provided by the arbitrator and arbitration organization; however,
all costs of the arbitration proceeding or litigation to enforce this Agreement,
including attorneys' fees and witness expenses, shall be paid as the arbitrator
or court awards in accordance with applicable law. Except for claims for
5
<PAGE>
emergency equitable or injunctive relief which cannot be timely addressed

any, to a jury trial with respect to any claim subject to this Section 10.
11. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS. This Agreement shall be
binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Parties and
their respective successors and assigns. Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither
this Agreement nor any rights hereunder may be assigned by any Party without the
prior written consent of the other Parties.
12. ENTIRE AGREEMENT. Each Party represents and warrants
that no promise or inducement has been offered or made except as set forth
herein and the consideration stated herein is the sole consideration for this
Agreement and that this is the entire agreement of the Parties as to the subject
hereof, superseding all previous agreements between or among the Parties or any
of them; provided, however, that this Agreement does not supersede (i) the Stock
Option Termination Agreement among the Parties dated as of March 28, 2000; or
(ii) the Indemnification Agreement between Lewis and the Company dated as of
March 28, 2000.
13. GOVERNING LAW. The Parties agree that this Agreement
shall be construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of
California.
14. CONSTRUCTION. This Agreement shall be construed
without regard to the Party or Parties responsible for its preparation, and it
shall be deemed to have been prepared jointly by the Parties. Any ambiguity or
uncertainty arising herein shall not be interpreted or construed against any
Party hereto.
15. COUNTERPARTS. This Agreement may be executed in any
number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original and all
of which together shall constitute one and the same document.
