                     UNSECURED SUBORDINATED PROMISSORY NOTE
                                    ("Note")

$13,000,000                                                    November 25, 2002

               FOR VALUE RECEIVED, DECKERS OUTDOOR CORPORATION, a Delaware
corporation ("Maker"), promises to pay to Mark Thatcher or order ("Holder"), in
lawful money of the United States, the principal sum of Thirteen Million Dollars
($13,000,000), together with interest in arrears on the unpaid principal balance
at an annual rate equal to Nine Percent (9%) in the manner provided below.
Interest shall be calculated on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as
applicable, and charged for the actual number of days elapsed.

        1. Payments.

               1.1 Interest. Interest only at the rate of Seven Percent (7%) per
annum on the unpaid balance of this Note (including, without limitation, amounts
compounded and added to the principal balance, pursuant to the next sentence)
shall be due and payable annually, one (1) year from the date of this Note,
commencing on the same day of each year thereafter. Interest at the rate of Two
Percent (2%) per annum (the "Deferred Interest") will be compounded annually on
the anniversary date of this Note and added to the outstanding principal balance
and be accrued until due and payable on [November 25], 2008 (the "Final Maturity
Date").

               1.2 Principal. The principal amount of this Note together with
all accrued and unpaid interest and other charges shall be due and payable upon
the Final Maturity Date.

               1.3 Prohibited Payments of Interest and Principal.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Note, Maker shall not pay and
Holder shall not collect or

<PAGE>

receive payment upon any of the obligations owed by Maker to Holder hereunder
including, without limitation, any principal, interest, costs, charges or other
liabilities or obligations, to the extent such payment is prohibited by the
Subordination Agreement (defined herein).

               1.4 Manner of Payment. All payments of principal and interest on
this Note shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an
account designated by Holder in writing. If any payment of principal or interest
on this Note is due on a day which is not a Business Day, such payment shall be
due on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall be
taken into account in calculating the amount of interest payable under this
Note. "Business Day" means any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or legal
holiday in the State of Arizona.

               1.5 Prepayment. Maker may, without premium or penalty, at any
time and from time to time, prepay all or any portion of the outstanding
principal balance due under this Note, provided that each such prepayment is
accompanied by accrued interest (including, without limitation, any Deferred
Interest) on the amount of principal prepaid calculated to the date of such
prepayment and further provided that the Maker shall not make any such
prepayment and Holder shall not collect or receive any such prepayment to the
extent such prepayment is prohibited by the Subordination Agreement, as
hereinafter defined in Section 4.

        2. Defaults.

               2.1 Events of Default. The occurrence of any one or more of the
following events with respect to Maker shall constitute an event of default
hereunder ("Event of Default"):

                      (a) If Maker shall fail to pay when due any payment of
        principal or interest on this Note and such failure continues for ten
        (10) days.

                      (b) The aggregate term debt constituting part of the
        Senior Debt exceeds Thirty Million Dollars ($30,000,000) without
        Holder's prior written consent.

                      (c) If, pursuant to or within the meaning of the United
        States Bankruptcy Code or any other federal or state law relating to
        insolvency or relief of debtors (a "Bankruptcy Law"), Maker shall (i)
        commence a voluntary case or proceeding; (ii) consent to the entry of an
        order for relief against it in an involuntary case; (iii) consent to the
        appointment of a trustee, receiver, assignee, liquidator or similar
        official; (iv) make an assignment for the benefit of its creditors; or
        (v) admit in writing its inability to pay its debts as they become due.

                                      -2-
<PAGE>

                      (d) If a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order
        or decree under any Bankruptcy Law that (i) is for relief against Maker
        in an involuntary case, (ii) appoints a trustee, receiver, assignee,
        liquidator or similar official for Maker or substantially all of Maker's
        properties, or (iii) orders the liquidation of Maker, and in each case
        the order or decree is not dismissed within 90 days.

                      (e) All or any part of the property of Maker valued in the
        aggregate in excess of Five Hundred Thousand Dollars ($500,000) is
        attached, levied upon, or otherwise seized by legal process, and such
        attachment, levy, or seizure is not quashed, stayed, released or bonded
        pending appeal within 30 days of the date thereof.

                      (f) The occurrence of any default, event of default or
        similar event or condition leading to the acceleration of the Senior
        Debt (as defined in the Subordination Agreement).

               2.2 Remedies. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default
hereunder (unless all Events of Default have been cured or waived by Holder in
Holder's sole and absolute discretion), Holder may, at its option, (i) by
written notice to Maker, declare the entire unpaid principal balance of this
Note, together with all accrued interest thereon, immediately due and payable
regardless of any prior forbearance, and (ii) exercise any and all rights and
remedies available to it under applicable law, including, without limitation,
the right to collect from Maker all sums due under this Note including
reasonable attorney's fees, provided that Holder shall not exercise any such
rights or remedies to the extent the exercise of any such right or remedy would
be prohibited by the Subordination Agreement (defined herein).

               3. Default Interest. If any payment of interest and/or principal
is not received by the holder hereof when such payment is due or if any Event of
Default occurs, then the principal hereof shall bear interest at the rate of
Eleven Percent (11%) per annum, which interest shall be due and payable upon
demand.

               4. Subordination. The indebtedness evidenced by this Note is
subordinated to the indebtedness of the Maker pursuant to the Subordination
Agreement, dated November 25, 2002 (the "Subordination Agreement"), entered into
by and among Maker, the Holder, Comerica Bank-California, and Peninsula. The
terms and conditions of the Subordination Agreement are incorporated herein by
reference. Capitalized terms used in this Note but defined herein shall have the
definitions as set forth in the Subordination Agreement.

               5. Reliance of Subordination. The terms and conditions of the
Subordination Agreement shall constitute a continuing offer to all persons or
entities who, in reliance upon such provisions, become a holder of, or continue
to hold Senior Debt, and such provisions are made for the benefit of the holders
of Senior Debt, and

                                      -3-
<PAGE>

each such holder is made an obligee hereunder and they or each of them may
enforce such provisions.

               6. Further Assurances. The holder of this Note shall give,
execute and deliver any notice, statement, instrument, document, agreement or
other papers, and shall permit the holders of Senior Debt, upon request to make
any notation or endorsement upon any promissory note or other instrument or
documents evidencing or securing the indebtedness of this Note, that may be
necessary or desirable, or that the holders of Senior Debt may request in order
to create, preserve or validate the rights of the holders of Senior Debt to
exercise or enforce their rights hereunder, or otherwise to effect the purposes
of this Note.

               7. Application of Payments. All payments shall be applied first
to accrued interest and costs of collection and the remainder, if any, to
principal. All payments hereunder shall be paid without demand, counterclaim,
reduction or setoff.

               8. Relative Rights. This Section defines the relative rights of
the Holder of this Note and the holders of Senior Debt pursuant to the
Subordination Agreement. Nothing in this Note shall:

               (a) impair, as between Maker and the holder of this Note, the
        obligation of Maker, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay
        principal of or interest on this Note in accordance with its terms;

               (b) affect the relative rights of the holder of this Note and
        other creditors of Maker other than the holders of Senior Debt; or

               (c) prevent the holder of this Note from exercising its available
        remedies upon a default hereunder, subject to the rights of the holders
        of the Senior Debt otherwise payable to the holder of this Note.

               9. Miscellaneous.

                      9.1 Waiver. The rights and remedies of Holder under this
Note shall be cumulative and not alternative. No waiver by Holder of any right
or remedy under this Note shall be effective unless in a writing signed by
Holder. Neither the failure nor any delay in exercising any right, power or
privilege under this Note will operate as a waiver of such right, power or
privilege and no single or partial exercise of any such right, power or
privilege by Holder will preclude any other or further exercise of such right,
power or privilege or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. To
the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, (a) no claim or right of Holder
arising out of this Note can be discharged by Holder, in whole or in part, by a
waiver or renunciation of the claim or right unless in a writing, signed by
Holder; (b) no waiver that may be given by Holder will be applicable except in
the specific instance for which it is

                                      -4-
<PAGE>

given; and (c) no notice to or demand on Maker will be deemed to be a waiver of
any obligation of Maker or of the right of Holder to take further action without
notice or demand as provided in this Note. Maker hereby waives presentment,
demand, protest and notice of dishonor and protest.

                      9.2 Notices. Any notice required or permitted to be given
hereunder shall be given in accordance with the Subordination Agreement. Maker
shall promptly notify the holder of this Note of any facts known to cause Maker
a payment that would cause a payment of principal or interest in this Note to
violate the terms of the Subordination Agreement, but failure to give such
notice shall not affect the Subordination of this Note to Senior Debt provided
for under the Subordination Agreement.

                      9.3 Severability. If any provision in this Note is held
invalid or unenforceable by any court of competent jurisdiction, the other
provisions of this Note will remain in full force and effect. Any provision of
this Note held invalid or unenforceable only in part or degree will remain in
full force and effect to the extent not held invalid or unenforceable.

                      9.4 Governing Law. This Note will be governed by the laws
of the State of Arizona without regard to conflicts of laws principles.

                      9.5 Parties In Interest. This Note shall bind Maker and
its successors and assigns. This Note shall not be assigned or transferred by
Holder without the express prior written consent of Maker (which shall not be
unreasonably withheld), except by will or the laws of descent.

                      9.6 Section Headings, Construction. The headings of
Sections in this Note are provided for convenience only and will not affect its
construction or interpretation. All references to "Section" or "Sections" refer
to the corresponding Section or Sections of this Note unless otherwise
specified. All words used in this Note will be construed to be of such gender or
number as the circumstances require. Unless otherwise expressly provided, the
words "hereof" and "hereunder" and similar references refer to this Note in its
entirety and not to any specific section or subsection hereof.

                      9.7 Costs of Collection. In the event any holder hereof
utilizes the services of an attorney in attempting to collect the amounts due
hereunder or to enforce the terms hereof or of any agreements related to this
indebtedness, or if any holder hereof becomes party plaintiff or defendant in
any legal proceeding in relation to the property described in any instrument
securing this Note or for the recovery or protection of the indebtedness
evidenced hereby, Maker, its successors and assigns, shall repay to such holder
hereof, on demand, all costs and expenses so incurred, including reasonable
attorney's fees, including those costs, expenses and attorney's fees incurred
after the filing by or against the Maker of any proceeding under any chapter of
the

                                      -5-
<PAGE>

Bankruptcy Law, or similar federal or state statute, and whether incurred in
connection with the involvement of any holder hereof as creditor in such
proceedings or otherwise.

                      9.8 Waivers. Subject to the Subordination Agreement, the
Maker and all sureties, endorsers and guarantors of this Note waive demand,
presentment for payment, notice of nonpayment, protest, notice of protest and
all other notice, filing of suit and diligence in collecting this Note or the
release of any part primarily or secondarily liable hereon and further agree
that it will not be necessary for any holder hereof, in order to enforce payment
of this Note by any of them, to first institute suit or exhaust its remedies
against any maker or others liable herefor, and consent to any extension or
postponement of time or payment of this Note or any other indulgence with
respect hereto without notice thereof to any of them.

                      9.9 Rate of Interest. Notwithstanding any provision
contained herein to the contrary, the effective interest rate under this Note
shall include the applicable interest rate described herein plus any
compensating balance requirement and any additional charges, costs and fees
incident to the loan evidenced hereby to the extent they are deemed to be
interest under applicable Arizona law. Should the interest rate as calculated
under this Note at any time exceed that allowed by law, the applicable rate
hereunder will be the maximum rate of interest allowed by applicable Arizona law
to be charged on any contracts.

                      9.10 Submission to Jurisdiction. THE COURTS OF ARIZONA,
FEDERAL OR STATE, SHALL HAVE EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF ALL LEGAL ACTIONS ARISING
OUT OF THIS NOTE. BY EXECUTING THIS NOTE, THE UNDERSIGNED SUBMITS TO THE
JURISDICTION OF THE FEDERAL AND STATE COURTS OF ARIZONA.

                      9.11 Replacement of Senior Debt. The Maker of this Note
may, at any time, without the consent of the Holder, replace, substitute or
exchange any provider of Senior Debt with any new primary lender for a revolving
credit agreement or asset based loan agreement for any amount and up to
$30,000,000 in term loans from either a primary lender or a senior subordinated
lender provided that any new lender agrees to the subordination provisions set
forth in this Note and the Subordination Agreement or otherwise agrees to
subordination terms acceptable to the Holder and the other parties.

                             NOTE PURCHASE AGREEMENT

        This NOTE PURCHASE AGREEMENT (this "Agreement"), dated as of November
25, 2002, is by and among DECKERS OUTDOOR CORPORATION, a Delaware corporation
(the "Company"), and THE PENINSULA FUND III LIMITED PARTNERSHIP, a Delaware
limited partnership (the "Purchaser"). Capitalized terms used in this Agreement
are defined in Section 11.1.

        To induce Purchaser to purchase the Senior Subordinated Note from the
Company, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and
sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to
be legally bound, agree as follows:

             ARTICLE 1. DESCRIPTION OF SENIOR SUBORDINATED NOTE AND
                                   COMMITMENT

        1.1 Description of Senior Subordinated Note.

               The Company will authorize the issuance and sale of its Senior
Subordinated Note which shall be dated as of the Closing Date, shall be in the
aggregate original principal amount of $14,000,000, and shall bear interest at
the fixed rate of sixteen and three quarters percent (16.75%) per annum;
provided, however, that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default and during
the continuance thereof, the unpaid principal amount of the Senior Subordinated
Note shall bear interest at the rate of 18.75% per annum. Interest on the Senior
Subordinated Note shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days
elapsed over a 365 or 366 day year, as the case may be. The Senior Subordinated
Note shall be substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A-1.

        1.2 Commitment; Funding.

               Subject to the terms and conditions hereof and on the basis of
the representations and warranties hereinafter set forth, the Company agrees to
issue and sell to Purchaser and Purchaser agrees to purchase from the Company,
the Senior Subordinated Note in the principal amount of $14,000,000 at a price
of one hundred percent (100%) of such principal amount. The Senior Subordinated
Note will be delivered to Purchaser, and shall be issued in its name or the name
of its nominee, provided that such nominee is a Holder.

        1.3 Origination Points.

               The Company shall pay to Purchaser origination points in the
amount of 2.0% of the principal amount of the Senior Subordinated Note in
immediately available funds, which shall be paid on or prior to the Closing
Date. All origination points paid under this Section 1.3 are fully earned and
nonrefundable.

<PAGE>

        1.4 Use of Proceeds.

               The proceeds from the sale of the Senior Subordinated Note shall
be used solely (a) to finance the Acquisition, (b) to pay all fees, costs and
expenses payable pursuant to this Agreement and the Other Agreements, and (c)
prior to such proceeds being used for the purposes set forth in the preceding
clauses (a) and (b), for Permitted Investments on a temporary basis.

          ARTICLE 2. PAYMENT AND PREPAYMENT OF SENIOR SUBORDINATED NOTE

        2.1 Principal and Interest Payments.

               2.1.1. Unless otherwise accelerated pursuant to the terms hereof,
principal and interest on the Senior Subordinated Note shall be due and payable
as follows:

               (a) Principal shall be due and payable in quarterly payments on
the last day of the quarter each in the amount of $1,500,000 commencing on the
earlier of (i) the last day of the month which is six months after payment in
full of the Senior Term Debt, and (ii) November 30, 2007, and continuing until
the Maturity Date, when the outstanding principal amount of the Senior
Subordinated Note shall be due and payable.

               (b) Interest shall be due and payable (i) monthly in arrears on
each Interest Payment Date, commencing in December, 2002, and (ii) on the
Maturity Date.

               (c) At the Company's sole option, the Company may elect, on any
Interest Payment Date with respect to the interest payment then due on the
Senior Subordinated Note, by giving notice to Purchaser on such Interest Payment
Date, to pay in cash a portion of such interest payment at a rate not less than
twelve percent (12%) per annum, and to defer the remaining portion of the
accrued but unpaid interest then due (the "Partial Deferral"). If the Company
elects to defer a portion of the interest then due, the Company will execute and
deliver to Purchaser a note, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A-2
(together with any and all notes issued in replacement or substitution therefor,
the "Deferral Note"), which note will be in the amount of the deferred interest,
will bear interest at the rate of 16.75% per annum prior to an Event of Default
and 18.75% subsequent to and during the continuance of an Event of Default,
payable monthly on each Interest Payment Date, and will be due and payable on
the Maturity Date. On each succeeding Interest Payment Date, the Company, at its
sole option, will be entitled to elect a Partial Deferral for the interest
payment then due on the Senior Subordinated Note, and to elect to either pay the
interest then due on the Deferral Note in cash or to defer the payment of such
interest (a "Subsequent Interest Deferral"). On any Interest Payment Date that
the Company elects a Partial Deferral, a Subsequent Interest Deferral or both,
the Company will execute and deliver a replacement Deferral Note in the new
principal amount equal to the principal amount of the then existing Deferral
Note, plus the interest deferred on the Senior Subordinated Note pursuant to the
then-elected Partial Deferral, if any, plus the interest deferred pursuant to
the then-elected Subsequent Interest Deferral, if any. The outstanding principal
amount of the Deferral Note, together with all accrued and unpaid interest
thereon, shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date.

                                       2
<PAGE>

        2.1.2. If any payment of principal is not received by Purchaser on or
before its due date, or any payment of interest and or other amounts payable
hereunder is not received by Purchaser on or before the second day after such
payment is due, the Company shall pay a late fee equal to the greater of (a)
$1,000 or (b) five percent (5%) of the amount due.

        2.2 Optional Prepayments.

        2.2.1. At the Company's option, upon notice given as provided below and
subject to the terms of the Senior Subordination Agreement, the Company may, at
any time and from time to time on the last Business Day of any month, prepay all
or any part of the principal of the Senior Subordinated Note, by payment to
Purchaser of an amount equal to (a) the principal amount to be prepaid, plus (b)
accrued unpaid interest on the principal amount so prepaid, plus (c) any expense
or indemnification amounts for which Purchaser may be entitled to receive
payment or reimbursement hereunder or, if the Senior Subordinated Note is being
prepaid in full, the aggregate amount of all other Senior Subordinated
Obligations (including without limitation any Deferral Note outstanding), plus
(d) a premium equal to the percentage of the principal amount so prepaid which
is applicable in accordance with the following table based on the date on which
such prepayment is made (a "Prepayment Fee"):

<TABLE>
<CAPTION>

        <S>                                                             <C>
        Closing Date through November 24, 2003                             5%
        November 25, 2003 through November 24, 2004                        4%
        Thereafter                                                         0%
</TABLE>

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Prepayment Fee shall be payable with respect
to (a) prepayments made by the Company with the prior consent of the Senior
Lender and the Purchaser (which consent by the Purchaser shall not be
unreasonably withheld) during the period between November 25, 2003 through
November 24, 2004 to the extent such prepayments do not exceed $2,000,000 (the
"Two Million Dollar Prepayment Limit"), or (b) prepayments of any principal of
and interest on any Deferral Note. The amount of any prepayment on any Deferral
Note during this period between November 25, 2003 through November 24, 2004
shall not be included in the Two Million Dollar Prepayment Limit.

        2.2.2. Each partial prepayment under this Section 2.2 shall be made on
the last Business Day of a month in a principal amount of not less than
$1,000,000 or, if greater than $1,000,000, then in integral multiples of
$250,000. Each prepayment under this Section 2.2 shall be applied first to
accrued interest on the principal amount prepaid, second to the Deferral Note,
if any, third to the Prepayment Fee, fourth to any expenses to which Purchaser
may be entitled, fifth to installments of principal in the inverse order of
their maturities, and sixth if the Senior Subordinated Note is being prepaid in
full, the aggregate amount of all other Senior Subordinated Obligations. The
amount of any such prepayment or any prepayment under Section 2.3 may not be
reborrowed from the Purchaser by the Company. The Company shall give notice of
any optional prepayment to Purchaser not less than thirty (30) days nor more
than sixty (60) days before the date for prepayment, specifying in each such
notice the date upon which prepayment is to be made (which must be the last
Business Day of a month) and the principal

                                       3
<PAGE>

amount of the Senior Subordinated Note (together with accrued interest and any
applicable Prepayment Fee) to be prepaid on such date. Notice of prepayment
having been so given, the applicable prepayment amount shall become due and
payable on the specified prepayment date. The Company shall have no right to
prepay the Senior Subordinated Note except as provided in this Section 2.2 or in
Section 2.3. No Prepayment Fee shall apply to any scheduled principal payment
under Section 2.1.1(a).

        2.3 Mandatory Prepayments.

               The Company shall, subject to the terms of and to the extent
permitted by the Senior Subordination Agreement and subject to Purchaser's right
in its sole discretion to waive such prepayments, make mandatory prepayments in
each of the following circumstances:

        2.3.1. Intentionally omitted.

        2.3.2. If during any fiscal year the Company or its Subsidiaries shall
sell or otherwise dispose of (other than as permitted by Section 6.9 or Section
7.3) any property or properties, then the Company shall prepay the Senior
Subordinated Obligations in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the aggregate
Net Cash Proceeds of such sales or other dispositions or (ii) the aggregate
amount of all Senior Subordinated Obligations (including any Prepayment Fee),
such prepayment to be made within five (5) Business Days of receipt of such Net
Cash Proceeds, all subject to the terms of and to the extent permitted by the
Senior Subordination Agreement.

        2.3.3. Intentionally omitted.

        2.3.4. In the event of any collection of or realization by the Purchaser
upon any Collateral following an Event of Default, the Company shall prepay the
Senior Subordinated Obligations in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the
aggregate Net Cash Proceeds of all collections or other realizations of
Collateral by Purchaser or (ii) the aggregate amount of all Senior Subordinated
Obligations (including any Prepayment Fee), such prepayment to be made within
five (5) Business Days of receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds, all subject to the
terms of and to the extent permitted by the Senior Subordination Agreement.

        2.3.5. In the event of any sale or other disposition of all or
substantially all of the stock or assets of the Company or any Subsidiary of the
Company in a single transaction or series of transactions (other than as
permitted by Section 6.9 or Section 7.3), the Company shall prepay the Senior
Subordinated Obligations in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the aggregate
Net Cash Proceeds of such sales or dispositions or (ii) the aggregate amount of
all Senior Subordinated Obligations (including any Prepayment Fee), prepayment
to be made within five (5) Business Days of receipt of such net proceeds, all
subject to the terms of and to the extent permitted by the Senior Subordination
Agreement.

        Any prepayment under this Section 2.3 made prior to November 24, 2004
shall be subject to payment of a Prepayment Fee, and shall be applied first to
accrued interest on the Senior Subordinated Note, second to the Deferral Note,
if any, third to any Prepayment Fee, fourth to any expenses for which Purchaser
may be entitled, fifth to installments of principal in the inverse

                                       4
<PAGE>

order of their maturities on the Senior Subordinated Note, and sixth if the
Senior Subordinated Note is being prepaid in full, the aggregate amount of all
other Senior Subordinated Obligations. The amount of any such mandatory
prepayment may not be reborrowed by the Company from the Purchaser.

        2.4 Reasonableness of Prepayment Fee.

               The Company agrees and acknowledges that any Prepayment Fee
payable pursuant to Section 2.2 or Section 2.3 is the product of arm's length
negotiation between the parties and the amount thereof constitutes reasonable
compensation for loss by the Purchaser of the opportunity to recover loan
origination expenses and profits over the balance of the term of this Agreement,
and is not a penalty.

        2.5 Additional Payments.

               Unless otherwise provided herein or in the Other Agreements, all
Senior Subordinated Obligations, other than principal and interest on the Senior
Subordinated Note and the Deferral Note, if any, shall be payable by the Company
to the Holder thereof, on demand, and shall bear interest from the date of
demand until paid at the rate of interest then applicable under Section 1.1.
Payment of fees and expenses due and payable on the Closing Date to Purchaser
and the reasonable fees and expenses of Purchaser's legal counsel shall be paid
in full on the Closing Date.

        2.6 Direct Payment.

               The Company will pay all sums becoming due hereunder and on the
Senior Subordinated Note and the Deferral Note to Purchaser at the address
specified for Purchaser on Annex I hereto, by wire transfer in U.S. Dollars of
Federal Reserve or other immediately available funds, to the account specified
for Purchaser on Annex I or at such other address or in such other form as
Purchaser shall have designated by notice to the Company at least five Business
Days prior to the date of any payment, in each case without presentment and
without notations being made thereon. All payments by the Company shall be made
without defense, set-off or counterclaim. Any wire transfer shall identify such
payment as "Deckers Outdoor Corporation 16.75% Senior Subordinated Note" and
shall identify the payment as principal, premium, interest and/or reimbursement
of costs and expenses, together with the applicable date or period to which it
relates.

        2.7 Payments Payable on Business Days.

               Payments of all amounts due hereunder or under the Senior
Subordinated Note or Deferral Note shall be made on a Business Day. Any payment
due on a day that is not a Business Day shall be made on the immediately
preceding Business Day, together with all interest (if any) accrued to and
including such preceding Business Day.

                                       5

        2.8 Interest Laws.

        2.8.1. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this
Agreement or any Other Agreement, the Company shall not be required to pay, and
Purchaser shall not be permitted to contract for, take, reserve, charge or
receive, any compensation which constitutes interest under applicable law in
excess of the maximum amount of interest permitted by law ("Excess Interest").
If any Excess Interest is provided for or determined by a court of competent
jurisdiction to have been provided for in this Agreement or in any Other
Agreement or otherwise contracted for, taken, reserved, charged or received,
then in such event: (i) the provisions of this Section 2.8 shall govern and
control; (ii) the Company shall not be obligated to pay any Excess Interest;
(iii) any Excess Interest that Purchaser may have contracted for, taken,
reserved, charged or received hereunder shall be, at Purchaser's option, (A)
applied as a credit against the outstanding principal balance of the Senior
Subordinated Obligations or accrued and unpaid interest (not to exceed the
maximum amount permitted by law), (B) refunded to the payor thereof, or (C) any
combination of the foregoing; (iv) the interest provided for shall be
automatically reduced to the maximum lawful rate allowed from time to time under
applicable law (the "Maximum Rate"), and this Agreement and the Other Agreements
shall be deemed to have been, and shall be, reformed and modified to reflect
such reduction; and (v) the Company shall have no action against Purchaser for
any damages arising due to any Excess Interest.

        2.8.2. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if for any period of time interest
on any Senior Subordinated Obligations is calculated at the Maximum Rate rather
than the applicable rate under this Agreement, and thereafter such applicable
rate becomes less than the Maximum Rate, the rate of interest payable on such
Senior Subordinated Obligations thereafter shall remain at the Maximum Rate
until Purchaser shall have received the amount of interest which Purchaser would
have received during such period on such Senior Subordinated Obligations had the
rate of interest not been limited to the Maximum Rate during such period. All
sums paid or agreed to be paid hereunder or under the Other Agreements for the
use, forbearance or detention of sums due shall, to the extent permitted by
applicable law, be amortized, pro-rated, allocated and spread throughout the
full term of the Senior Subordinated Obligations until payment in full so that
the rate or amounts of interest on account of the Senior Subordinated
Obligations does not exceed the Maximum Rate. The terms of this Section 2.8
shall be deemed incorporated into each Other Agreement and any other document or
instrument between the Company and Purchaser or directed to the Company by
Purchaser, whether or not specific reference to this Section 2.8 is made.

             ARTICLE 3. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF PURCHASER

        Purchaser represents and warrants to the Company as follows:

        3.1 Existence.

               It is a Delaware limited partnership duly organized, validly

            ARTICLE 4. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE COMPANY

        To induce Purchaser to enter into this Agreement, the Company represents
and warrants to Purchaser that, after giving effect to the transactions
contemplated by the Acquisition Documents, Senior Loan Documents, this Agreement
and the Other Agreements:

        4.1 Corporate Existence and Authority.

               Each of the Company and Guarantors (a) is a corporation duly
organized, validly existing, and in good standing under the laws of its state of
incorporation, (b) has all requisite power and authority to own its respective
assets and carry on its respective business as now conducted; and (c) is
qualified to do business in all jurisdictions in which the nature of its
business makes such qualification necessary and where failure to so qualify
would have a Material Adverse Effect. Each of the Company and its Subsidiaries
has the power and authority to execute, deliver, and perform its obligations
under this Agreement, the Acquisition Documents, the Senior Loan Documents, and
all Other Agreements to which it is, or in connection with the transactions
contemplated hereby may become, a party.

        4.2 Financial Statements.

               The Company has delivered to Purchaser (a) audited consolidated
financial statements of the Company and its Subsidiaries as at and for the
fiscal years ended December 31, 1999, 2000, and 2001, unaudited financial
statements of the Company for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2002,
and (b) cash flow projections of the Company and its Subsidiaries for the
five-year period following the Closing Date together with a written statement of
the assumptions underlying them. The financial statements referred to in clause
(a) of this Section 4.2 are true and correct in all material respects, have been
prepared in accordance with GAAP (except as otherwise noted therein), and fairly
and accurately present in all material respects the financial condition of the
Company and its Subsidiaries as of the respective dates indicated therein and
the results of the Company's and its Subsidiaries' operations for the respective
periods indicated therein. The cash flow projections referred to in clause (b)
of this Section 4.2 have been prepared in good faith and are based on what the
Company believes to be a reasonable assessment of the future performance of the
Company, subject to general business conditions, world events, and economic
factors which may be beyond its control or other unanticipated future events
which could have an unforeseen impact on the performance or condition of the
Company. The projections involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and
other factors, including those outlined in the risk factors section of the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31,
2001, that may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of the
Company, or industry results, to differ materially from any future results,
performance or achievements expressed or implied in the projections. At December
31, 2001 and September 30, 2002, neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries
had any liabilities or obligations (absolute, accrued, contingent or otherwise)
of a nature required by GAAP to be reflected in such financial statements which
are, individually or in the aggregate, material to the financial condition or
operations of the Company as of that date which are not reflected on such
financial statements. There has been no material adverse change in the financial
condition or operations of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries since
September 30, 2002, nor has there otherwise occurred a Material Adverse Effect.
The representations and warranties contained in

                                       8

obligations of the Company, which are absolute and unconditional, to pay to

Subordinated Note and the Deferral Note and all other Senior Subordinated
Obligations as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with

otherwise permitted by applicable law upon a Default or an Event of Default
