Item 5.02.  Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

On October 3, 2013, Pilot SAS, a wholly-owned French subsidiary of Quiksilver, Inc. (the “Company”), entered into an amended and restated employment agreement and related amended and restated Corporate Mandate with Pierre Agnes, the Company’s Global Head of Apparel and President – Quiksilver Europe (collectively, the “Agnes Agreement”). The Agnes Agreement is effective as of July 1, 2013 and supersedes the previous employment agreement and related Corporate Mandate between Mr. Agnes and Pilot SAS dated March 6, 2012 (collectively, the “Previous Agreement”).

The purpose of the Agnes Agreement is to include Mr. Agnes’ additional duties as the Company’s Global Head of Apparel and to update certain immaterial clauses. The Agnes Agreement also modifies the proportion of Mr. Agnes’ base compensation payable pursuant to the employment agreement and the Corporate Mandate, without increasing or decreasing such compensation. Except for the foregoing modifications, the material terms of the Agnes Agreement are substantially identical to the Previous Agreement, as described by the Company on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 12, 2012.

Copies of the Agnes Agreement are attached hereto as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2 and are incorporated herein by reference.
