Expiration Date:
June 13, 2024
This Option may expire earlier as described in Sections 1, 2 and 3 below.

In order to promote Awardee’s long-term commitment to Deckers Outdoor
Corporation (the “Company”), to compensate Awardee for the Company’s performance
measured on a long-term basis, and to provide an incentive for Awardee to
continue to provide Continuous Service to the Company and exert added effort
towards its growth and success, the Company hereby grants a nonqualified stock
option (the “Option”) to purchase the Total Number of Shares (as listed above)
for a per share exercise price equal to the Exercise Price Per Share (as listed
above), subject to the terms, restrictions and conditions of the Deckers Outdoor
Corporation 2015 Stock Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) and this Performance Stock
Option Agreement (the “Agreement”). Any term not defined herein shall have the
meaning set forth in the Plan.
1.    Vesting.
(a)    This Option shall vest based upon the achievement by the Company of the
performance criteria as set forth on Exhibit A (“Performance Criteria”),
provided that the Awardee shall have provided Continuous Service to the Company
through March 31, 2020 (the “Vesting Date”). The Committee shall determine
whether or not the Performance Criteria has been achieved as soon as reasonably
practicable following the Company’s receipt of the report of the independent
registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2020. If
the Committee determines the Performance Criteria has not been achieved, this
Option will expire immediately without any further action by the Company or
Awardee and no vesting shall occur.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(b)    For purposes of this Agreement, the term “Continuous Service” means (i)
Awardee’s employment by either the Company or any parent or subsidiary
corporation of the Company, or by a corporation or a parent or subsidiary of a
corporation assuming this Agreement or issuing New Incentives, as defined in
Section 3 below, which is uninterrupted except for vacations, illness (except
for permanent disability, as defined in Section 22(e)(3) of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”)), or leaves of absence which are approved
in writing by the Company or any of such other employer corporations, if
applicable, or (ii) so long as Awardee is engaged as a Consultant or providing
Service.
2.    Forfeiture or Pro Rata Vesting Upon Termination of Employment.
(a)    Termination of Employment Generally. If Awardee ceases to provide
Continuous Service to the Company, then, except as otherwise provided in
Sections 2(b) or (c) below, or Section 3 below, this Option will expire at the
close of business at the Company’s headquarters on the date on which Awardee’s
Continuous Service ceases. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if this Option has
vested pursuant to Section 1(a) above prior to the Awardee’s Continuous Service
ceasing, this Option will expire at the close of business at the Company’s
headquarters on the date three (3) months after Awardee’s Continuous Service
ceases; provided, however, this Option shall expire immediately unless the
Awardee complies with each of the provisions of Section 7 below until this
Option expires or is exercised. If the Awardee’s Continuous Service is
terminated for Cause, this Option will expire upon the date of such termination.
(b)    Vesting Upon Death or Disability.
(i)    Notwithstanding Section 2(a) above, if (i) Awardee’s Continuous Service
ceases due to Awardee’s death or disability (as defined in the Plan) and (ii)
this Option later vests pursuant to Section 1(a) above, then a Pro-Rata Portion
(as defined in Section 3(c)(iv) below) of this Option shall become vested
effective upon the Vesting Date. Promptly following the date of the Committee’s
final determination of the achievement of the Performance Criteria, the Company
shall deliver a notice to the Awardee (or his/her estate in the event of death)
confirming the vesting of a Pro-Rata Portion of this Option. If this Section
2(b)(i) is applicable, this Option will expire at the close of business at the
Company’s headquarters on the date twelve (12) months after the Vesting Date.
(ii)    Notwithstanding Section 2(a) above, if Awardee’s Continuous Service
ceases, after this Option has vested pursuant to Section 1(a) above, due to
Awardee’s death or disability (as defined in the Plan), this Option shall expire
at the close of business at the Company’s headquarters on the date twelve (12)
months after the date Awardee’s Continuous Service ceases.
(c)    Vesting Upon Retirement.
(i)    Notwithstanding Section 2(a) above, if (i) Awardee’s Continuous Service
ceases due to Awardee’s Retirement (as defined in Section 3(c)(v) below) and
(ii) this Option

2

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

later vests pursuant to Section 1(a) above, then a Pro Rata Portion (as defined
in Section 3(c)(iv) below) of this Option shall become vested effective upon the
Vesting Date; provided, however, that no vesting shall occur hereunder unless
the Awardee complies with the provisions of Section 7 below until this Option
expires or is exercised. Promptly following the date of the Committee’s final
determination of the achievement of the Performance Criteria, the Company shall
deliver a notice to the Awardee confirming the vesting of a Pro-Rata Portion of
this Option. If this Section 2(c)(i) is applicable, this Option will expire at
the close of business at the Company’s headquarters on the date twelve (12)
months after the Vesting Date.
(ii)    Notwithstanding Section 2(a) above, if Awardee’s Continuous Service
ceases, after this Option has vested pursuant to Section 1(a) above, due to
Awardee’s Retirement (as defined in Section 3(c)(v) below), this Option shall
expire at the close of business at Company’s headquarters on the date twelve
(12) months after the date Awardee’s Continuous Service ceases; provided,
however, this Option shall expire immediately hereunder unless the Awardee
complies with the provisions of Section 7 below until this Option expires or is
exercised.
3.    Vesting Upon Corporate Transaction.
(a)Notwithstanding Section 1(a) above, if prior to the Vesting Date, a Corporate
Transaction occurs, and the acquiring or successor entity (or parent thereof)
does not agree to provide for the continuance or assumption of this Agreement or
the substitution for this Agreement of a new agreement of comparable value
covering shares of a successor corporation (“New Incentives”), then this Option
shall become immediately and unconditionally vested in full effective
immediately prior to and conditioned upon the consummation of such Corporate
Transaction, regardless of the Company’s achievement (or projected achievement)
with respect to the Performance Criteria.
(b)Notwithstanding Section 3(a) above, if the acquiring or successor entity (or
parent thereof) provides for the continuance or assumption of this Agreement or
the substitution for this Agreement of a new agreement of comparable value
covering New Incentives, then vesting of this Option shall not accelerate in
connection with such Corporate Transaction to the extent (but only to the
extent) this Agreement is continued, assumed or substituted for New Incentives;
provided, however:
(i)    if Awardee’s Continuous Service is terminated without Cause or pursuant
to a Constructive Termination (as defined in Section 3(c)(ii) below) within
twenty-four (24) months following such Corporate Transaction, this Option (or
New Incentives to the extent issued in substitution for this Option) shall vest
in full effective upon such termination, regardless of the Company’s achievement
(or projected achievement) with respect to the Performance Criteria; or
(ii)    if, following a Corporate Transaction, Awardee shall have provided
Continuous Service through the Vesting Date, then this Option (or New Incentives
to the extent issued in substitution for this Option) shall vest in full
effective on the Vesting Date, regardless of the Company’s achievement of the
Performance Criteria as of the Vesting Date.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(c)For purposes of this Agreement, the following terms shall have the meanings
set forth below:
(i)    “Cause” means the termination by the Company of Awardee’s Service for any
of the following reasons: (a) the continued, unreasonable refusal or omission by
the Awardee to perform any material duties required of him or her by the Company
if such duties are consistent with duties customary for the position held with
the Company; (b) any material act or omission by the Awardee involving
malfeasance or gross negligence in the performance of the Awardee’s duties to,
or material deviation from, any of the policies or directives of, the Company;
(c) conduct on the part of the Awardee which constitutes the breach of any
statutory or common law duty of loyalty to the Company, including the
unauthorized disclosure of material confidential information or trade secrets of
the Company; or (d) any illegal act by the Awardee which materially and
adversely affects the business of the Company or any felony committed by the
Awardee, as evidenced by conviction thereof, provided that the Company may
suspend the Awardee with pay while any allegation of such illegal or felonious
act is investigated. In the event that the Awardee is a party to an employment
agreement or other similar agreement with the Company or any Affiliate that
defines a termination on account of “Cause” (or a term having a similar
meaning), such definition shall apply as the definition of a termination on
account of “Cause” for purposes hereof, but only to the extent that such
definition provides the Awardee with greater rights. A termination on account of
Cause shall be communicated by written notice to the Awardee, and shall be
deemed to occur on the date such notice is delivered to the Awardee.
(ii)    “Constructive Termination” shall mean a termination of the Awardee’s
Service within sixty (60) days following the occurrence of any one or more of
the following events without the Awardee’s written consent (a) any material
reduction in overall responsibilities, base compensation, annual incentive
compensation opportunity or aggregate employee benefits, or (b) a change of the
Awardee's location of employment by more than fifty (50) miles. In the event
that the Awardee is a party to an employment agreement or other similar
agreement with the Company or any Affiliate (or a successor entity) that defines
a termination on account of “Constructive Termination,” “Good Reason” or “Breach
of Agreement” (or terms having similar meanings), such definitions shall apply
as the definition of “Constructive Termination” for purposes hereof in lieu of
the foregoing, but only to the extent that such definitions provides the Awardee
with greater rights. A Constructive Termination shall be communicated by written
notice to the Committee, and shall be deemed to occur on the date such notice is
delivered to the Committee, unless the circumstances giving rise to the
Constructive Termination are cured within thirty (30) days of such notice.
(iii)    [INTENTIONALLY DELETED].
(iv)    “Pro-Rata Portion” shall be determined by (x) multiplying the Total
Number of Shares (as set forth above) by (y) a fraction, the numerator of which
is the number of full months of Awardee’s Continuous Service from April 1, 2017
until the date of termination of Continuous Service, and the denominator of
which is 36.

4

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(v)    “Retirement” shall be deemed to occur where Awardee both (a) attains age
sixty-two (62), and (b) completes ten (10) years of Continuous Service
4.    Exercise of Option.
(a)    Right to Exercise. This Option may be exercised only to the extent it is
vested. This Option is exercisable during its term in accordance with the
applicable provisions of the Plan and this Agreement. This Option may not be
exercised for a fraction of a Share. Awardee will not be allowed to exercise
this Option unless Awardee makes arrangements acceptable to the Company to pay
any withholding taxes that may be due as a result of this Option exercise.
(b)    Method of Exercise. This Option is exercisable by delivery of an exercise
notice in a form specified by the Company (the “Exercise Notice”), which shall
state the election to exercise this Option, the number of Shares in respect of
which this Option is being exercised (the “Exercised Shares”), and such other
representations and agreements as may be required by the Company pursuant to the
provisions of the Plan. The Exercise Notice shall be delivered in person, by
mail, via electronic mail or facsimile or by other authorized method to the
Chief Financial Officer of the Company or other person designated by the
Company. The Exercise Notice shall be accompanied by payment of the aggregate
exercise price as to all Exercised Shares (if applicable). This Option shall be
deemed to be exercised upon receipt by the Company of a fully executed Exercise
Notice accompanied by the aggregate exercise price (if applicable) and any
applicable tax withholding due upon exercise of this Option.
(c)    Exercise by Another. If another person wants to exercise this Option
after it has been transferred to him or her in compliance with this Agreement,
that person must prove to the Company’s satisfaction that he or she is entitled
to exercise this Option. That person must also complete the proper Exercise
Notice form (as described above) and pay the exercise price (as described below)
and any applicable tax withholding due upon exercise of this Option (as
described below).
5.    Method of Payment. Payment of the aggregate exercise price shall be by any
of the following, or a combination thereof, at Awardee’s election:
(a)    Awardee’s personal check, wire transfer, or a cashier’s check;
(b)    shares of Company stock that Awardee owns, along with any forms needed to
effect a transfer of those shares to the Company; the value of the shares,
determined as of the effective date of this Option exercise, will be applied to
this Option exercise price. Instead of surrendering shares of Company stock,
Awardee may attest to the ownership of those shares on a form provided by the
Company and have the same number of shares subtracted from this Option shares
issued to Awardee. However, Awardee may not surrender, or attest to the
ownership of, shares of Company stock in payment of the exercise price of
Awardee’s Option if Awardee’s action would cause the Company to recognize
compensation expense (or additional compensation expense) with respect to this
Option for financial reporting purposes;

5

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(c)    waiver of compensation due or accrued to Awardee for Awardee’s services
rendered (or to be rendered) to the Company or a parent or subsidiary of the
Company;
(d)    cashless exercise through irrevocable directions to a securities broker
approved by the Company to sell all or part of the Shares covered by this Option
and to deliver to the Company from the sale proceeds an amount sufficient to pay
this Option exercise price and any withholding taxes. The balance of the sale
proceeds, if any, will be delivered to Awardee. The directions must be given by
signing a special notice of exercise form provided by the Company; or
(e)    other method authorized by the Company.
6.    Non-Transferability of Option. In general, except as provided below, only
Awardee may exercise this Option prior to Awardee’s death. Awardee may not
transfer or assign this Option, except as provided below. For instance, Awardee
may not sell this Option or use it as security for a loan. If Awardee attempts
to do any of these things, this Option will immediately become invalid. Awardee
may, however, dispose of this Option in Awardee’s will or in a beneficiary
designation. However, the Committee may, in its sole discretion, allow Awardee
to transfer this Option as a gift to one or more family members. For purposes of
this Agreement, “family member” means a child, stepchild, grandchild, parent,
stepparent, grandparent, spouse, former spouse, sibling, niece, nephew,
mother-in-law, father-in-law, son-in-law, daughter-in-law, brother-in-law or
sister-in-law (including adoptive relationships), any individual sharing
Awardee’s household (other than a tenant or employee), a trust in which one or
more of these individuals have more than 50% of the beneficial interest, a
foundation in which Awardee or one or more of these persons control the
management of assets, and any entity in which Awardee or one or more of these
persons own more than 50% of the voting interest. In addition, the Committee
may, in its sole discretion, allow Awardee to transfer this Option to Awardee’s
spouse or former spouse pursuant to a domestic relations order in settlement of
marital property rights. The Committee will allow Awardee to transfer this
Option only if both Awardee and the transferee(s) execute the forms prescribed
by the Committee, which include the consent of the transferee(s) to be bound by
this Agreement. This Option may not be transferred in any manner other than by
will or by the laws of descent or distribution or court order and may be
exercised during the lifetime of Awardee only by Awardee, Awardee’s guardian, or
legal representative, as permitted in the Plan. The terms of the Plan and this
Agreement shall be binding upon the executors, administrators, heirs, successors
and assigns of Awardee.
7.    Restrictive Covenants. This Section shall apply if Awardee’s Continuous
Service is terminated pursuant to Section 2(a) or Section 2(c) above during any
period in which this Option of the Awardee continues to be outstanding. Nothing
in this Section 7 shall in any way limit or eliminate any other restrictions or
obligations to which Awardee may be subject following the termination of
Awardee’s Continuous Service:
(a)    Non-Competition. The Awardee shall not, without the Board’s prior written
consent, directly or indirectly engage in, have any equity interest in, or
assist, manage or participate in

6

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(whether as a director, officer, employee, agent, representative, security
holder, consultant or otherwise) any Competitive Business; provided, however,
that: (i) the Awardee shall be permitted to acquire a passive stock or equity
interest in such a Competitive Business provided the stock or other equity
interest acquired is not more than 5% of the outstanding interest in such a
Competitive Business; and (ii) the Awardee shall be permitted to acquire any
investment through a mutual fund, private equity fund or other pooled account
that is not controlled by the Awardee and in which the Awardee has less than a
5% interest.  For purposes of this provision, the term “Competitive Business” a
business or businesses activity which is the same as, substantially similar to,
or in competition with, business of the Company.
(b)    Non-Solicitation.  The Awardee will not, directly or indirectly, recruit
or otherwise solicit or induce any non-clerical employee, director, consultant,
customer, vendor or supplier of the Company to terminate his, her or its
employment or arrangement with the Company or otherwise change his, her or its
relationship with the Company.
(c)    Confidentiality.  The Awardee shall maintain in confidence and shall not
directly, indirectly or otherwise, use, disseminate, disclose or publish, or use
for his or her benefit or the benefit of any person, firm, corporation or other
entity, any confidential or proprietary information or trade secrets of or
relating to the Company, including, without limitation, information with respect
to the Company’s operations, processes, products, inventions, business
practices, finances, principals, vendors, suppliers, customers, potential
customers, marketing methods, costs, prices, contractual relationships, business
plans, designs, marketing or other business strategies, compensation paid to
employees or other terms of employment, or deliver to any person, firm,
corporation or other entity any document, record, notebook, computer program or
similar repository of or containing any such confidential or proprietary
information or trade secrets.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary,
nothing shall prohibit the Awardee from disclosing any information that is
generally known by the public or preclude any conduct protected under 18 U.S.C.
Section 1514A(a) or any similar state or federal law providing “whistleblower”
protection to the Awardee.
(d)    Non-Disparagement. The Awardee will not criticize, defame, be derogatory
toward or otherwise disparage the Company (or the Company’s past, present and
future officers, directors, stockholders, attorneys, agents, representatives,
employees or affiliates), or its or their business plans or actions, to any
third party, either orally or in writing; provided, however, that this provision
will not preclude the Awardee from giving testimony in response to a lawful
subpoena or preclude any conduct protected under 18 U.S.C. Section 1514A(a) or
any similar state or federal law providing “whistleblower” protection to the
Awardee.
8.    Term of Option. Subject to earlier expiration of this Option as described
in Sections 1, 2 and 3 above, this Option shall expire on June 13, 2024.
9.    Tax Consequences. Awardee should consult a tax adviser for tax
consequences relating to this Option in the jurisdiction in which Awardee is
subject to tax. AWARDEE SHOULD CONSULT A TAX ADVISER BEFORE EXERCISING THIS
OPTION OR DISPOSING OF THE SHARES.

7

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

10.    Withholding Taxes and Stock Withholding. Regardless of any action the
Company or Awardee’s actual employer (the “Employer”) takes with respect to any
or all income tax, social insurance, payroll tax, payment on account or other
tax-related withholding (“Tax-Related Items”), Awardee acknowledges that the
ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items legally due by Awardee is and
remains Awardee’s responsibility and that the Company and/or the Employer
(a) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any
Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of this Option grant, including
the grant, vesting or exercise of this Option, the subsequent sale of Shares
acquired pursuant to such exercise and the receipt of any dividends; and (b) do
not commit to structure the terms of the grant or any aspect of this Option to
reduce or eliminate Awardee’s liability for Tax-Related Items.  Awardee
acknowledge that if Awardee is subject to Tax-Related Items in more than one
jurisdiction, the Company and/or the Employer may be required to withhold or
account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction.  Prior to exercise
of this Option, Awardee shall pay or make adequate arrangements satisfactory to
the Company and/or the Employer to satisfy all withholding and payment on
account obligations of the Company and/or the Employer.  In this regard, Awardee
authorize the Company and/or the Employer to withhold all applicable Tax-Related
Items legally payable by Awardee from Awardee’s wages or other cash compensation
paid to Awardee by the Company and/or the Employer.  With the Company’s consent,
these arrangements may also include, if permissible under local law,
(a) withholding Shares that otherwise would be issued to Awardee when Awardee
exercises this Option, provided that the Company only withholds the amount of
Shares necessary to satisfy the minimum statutory withholding amount, (b) having
the Company withhold taxes from the proceeds of the sale of the Shares, either
through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on
Awardee’s behalf and Awardee hereby authorizes such sales by this
authorization), (c) Awardee’s payment of a cash amount, or (d) any other
arrangement approved by the Company; all under such rules as may be established
by the Committee and in compliance with the Company’s Insider Trading Policy and
10b5-1 Trading Plan Policy, if applicable; provided however, that if Awardee are
a Section 16 officer of the Company under the Exchange Act, then the Committee
(as constituted in accordance with Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act) shall
establish the method of withholding from alternatives (a)-(d) above, and the
Committee shall establish the method prior to the Tax-Related Items withholding
event.  The Fair Market Value of these Shares, determined as of the effective
date of this Option exercise, will be applied as a credit against the
withholding taxes.  Awardee shall pay to the Company or the Employer any amount
of Tax-Related Items that the Company or the Employer may be required to
withhold as a result of Awardee’s participation in the Plan or Awardee’s
purchase of Shares that cannot be satisfied by the means previously described. 
Finally, Awardee acknowledge that the Company has no obligation to deliver
Shares to Awardee until Awardee has satisfied the obligations in connection with
the Tax-Related Items as described in this Section.
11.    Compliance with Laws and Regulations. This Option and the offer, issuance
and delivery of securities under this Agreement are subject to compliance with
all applicable federal and state laws, rules and regulations (including but not
limited to federal and state securities laws) and to such approvals by any
listing, regulatory or governmental authority as may, in the opinion of counsel
for the Company, be necessary or advisable in connection therewith. The Awardee
will, if requested by

8

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

the Company, provide such assurances and representations to the Company as the
Company may deem necessary or desirable to assure compliance with all applicable
legal requirements. The Company will cause such action to be taken, and such
filings to be made, so that the grant hereunder shall comply with the rules of
the New York Stock Exchange or the principal stock exchange on which the
Company’s shares are then listed for trading.
12.    No Guarantee of Continued Service; Stockholder Rights. This Agreement and
the transactions contemplated hereunder constitute neither an express nor
implied promise of continued engagement of Awardee as a provider of Service
through the Vesting Date, for any period, or at all, and shall not interfere
with Awardee’s right or the Company’s right to terminate Awardee’s Service at
any time, with or without Cause, subject to any other written employment
agreement to which the Company and Awardee may be a party. The Awardee shall
have no rights as a stockholder of the Company until Shares are actually issued
and held of record by the Awardee upon exercise of the vested Option.
13.    Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the Plan constitute the entire
agreement of the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede
in their entirety all prior undertakings and agreements of the Company and the
Awardee with respect to the subject matter hereof, and may not be modified
adversely to the Awardee’s interest except by means of a writing signed by the
Company and the Awardee.
14.    Conflict of Provisions. The terms contained in the Plan are incorporated
into and made a part of this Agreement and this Agreement shall be governed by
and construed in accordance with the Plan. In the event of any actual or alleged
conflict between the provisions of the Plan and the provisions of this
Agreement, the provisions of the Plan shall be controlling and determinative.
15.    Assignment. Awardee shall have no right, without the prior written
consent of the Company, to (a) sell, assign, mortgage, pledge or otherwise
transfer any interest or right created hereby, or (b) delegate his or her duties
or obligations under this Agreement. This Agreement is made solely for the
benefit of the parties hereto, and no other person, partnership, association or
corporation shall acquire or have any right under or by virtue of this
Agreement.
16.    Restrictions on Resale. The Awardee agrees not to sell or transfer any
Shares that have been issued pursuant to the exercise of this Option at a time
when applicable laws, Company policies, or any agreement or understanding
between the Company and its underwriters prohibit a sale. This restriction shall
apply as long as the Awardee is providing Service and for such period after the
Awardee’s termination of Service as the Committee may specify.
17.    Severability. Should any provision or portion of this Agreement be held
to be unenforceable or invalid for any reason, the remaining provisions and
portions of this Agreement shall be unaffected by such holding.

same or of any right, remedy, power or privilege, nor shall any waiver of any

occurrence. No waiver shall be effective unless it is in writing and is signed
by the party asserted to have granted such waiver.
23.    Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts,
