This charter (this “ Charter ”) sets forth the purpose, composition, responsibilities and authority of the Audit Committee (the “ Committee ”) of the Board of Directors (the “ Board ” ) of Performance Sports Group Ltd. (the  “ Corporation ”).

|- | ---------------------------------------

|  |                                                                                                                 
|- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|• | the integrity of the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting and management information systems;

|  |                                                                           
|- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------
|• | the qualifications and independence of the Corporation’s external auditor;

|  |                                                                                       
|- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|• | the performance of the Corporation’s internal audit function and external auditor; and

|  |                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 
|- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|• | any other matters assigned to the Committee by the Board pursuant to this Charter or as mandated by applicable laws, rules and regulations, as well as the Toronto Stock Exchange and New York Stock Exchange listing standards.

Although the Committee has the powers and responsibilities set forth in this Charter, the role of the Committee is oversight.  The members of the Committee (the “ Members ”) are not full-time employees of the Corporation and may or may not be accountants or auditors by profession or experts in the fields of accounting or auditing and, in any event, do not serve in such capacity.  Consequently, it is not the duty of the Committee to conduct audits or to determine that the Corporation’s financial statements and disclosures are complete and accurate and are in accordance with applicable financial reporting standards and other Applicable Regulatory Requirements.  These are the responsibilities of management and the Corporation’s external auditor.
