Non-Compete, Non-Solicitation and Non-Disparagement Agreement

This agreement (the “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of August 1, 2008 between lululemon athletica inc. (the “Company”) and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇ (the “Executive”).

IN ACCORDANCE WITH the letter of employment between the Company and the Executive dated August 1, 2008 (the “Employment Agreement”) and the terms and conditions of employment set out therein;

AND IN CONSIDERATION OF the payment of good and valuable consideration by the Company to the Executive as set out in Employment Agreement, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the Executive covenants, warrants and agrees as follows:

CONFIDENTIALITY

For the purposes of this Agreement, “Confidential Information” means information disclosed to or known by the Executive as a consequence of or through her employment with the Company and not otherwise known in the industry in which the Company is engaged, about the Company’s or any of its subsidiaries’ products, operations, research, processes or services, including but not limited to information relating to research, development, inventions, copyrights, patents, licences, manufacture, production, distribution, purchasing, accounting, financing, engineering, marketing, merchandising, selling, or other technical or business information or trade secrets of the Company or its subsidiaries, or about any of the Company’s or its subsidiaries’ customers, suppliers, vendors or business affiliates. The term “Confidential Information” also includes any information that the Company has received from others that the Company is obligated to treat as confidential or proprietary. All information described above in this section shall be considered Confidential Information and shall be the sole property of the Company and the Company’s assigns.

The Executive will not directly or indirectly use, disseminate or disclose any Confidential Information for her own benefit or the benefit of any other person or entity. The Executive will take all necessary precautions against unauthorized disclosure of the Confidential Information.

If the Executive is requested or ordered by law to disclose any Confidential Information, she will advise the Company forthwith of such request or order and provide to the Company all information concerning such request or order and the opportunity for the Company to object or intervene, prior to making any disclosure of Confidential Information.

To the extent any of the rights, title and interest in any Company Innovation cannot be assigned by her to the Company, the Executive hereby grants to the Company an exclusive, royalty-free, transferable, irrevocable, worldwide license (with rights to sublicense through multiple tiers of sublicensees) to practice such rights, title and interest. Finally, to the extent any of the rights, title and interest can be neither assigned nor licensed, the Executive hereby irrevocably waives and agrees never to assert such rights, title and interest against the Company or any of the Company’s successors in interest to such rights. This Section 4 (Assignment of Innovations) shall be construed to apply to all Company Innovations with which the Executive is involved from this date forward, as well as all Company Innovations with which the Executive has been involved since her employment with the Company began.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Executive agrees that she will not incorporate, or permit to be incorporated, any Innovation owned by her into any Company Innovation without the Company’s prior written consent.

Cooperation. The Executive will execute any proper oath or verify any proper document in connection with carrying out the terms of this Agreement. If, because of her mental or physical incapacity or for any other reason whatsoever, the Company is unable to secure the Executive’s signature to apply for or to pursue any application process concerning Innovations assigned to the Company as stated above, the Executive hereby irrevocably designates and appoints the Company and its duly authorized officers and agents as her agent and attorney in fact, to act for her and on her behalf to execute and file any such applications and to do all other lawfully permitted acts to further the prosecution and issuance of all appropriate procedures thereon with the same legal force and effect as if executed by her. The Executive will testify at the Company’s request and expense in any interference, litigation, or other legal proceeding that may arise during or after her employment.

NON-DISPARAGEMENT

The Executive undertakes and covenants that she will permanently refrain from directly or indirectly disclosing, expressing, publishing or broadcasting, or causing to be disclosed, expressed, published or broadcast, or otherwise disseminated or distributed in any manner, in her own name, anonymously, by pseudonym or by a third party, to any person whatsoever, any comments, statements or other communications (the “Statements”), which a reasonable person would regard as reflecting adversely on the character, reputation or goodwill of the

A-2

Company or any of its subsidiaries or any of its or their employees, officers, directors, investors, shareholders or agents, or which a reasonable person would regard as reflecting adversely on their publications, products, or services, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, such Statements shall not be made by means of oral communications, press releases, articles, letters, telephone calls, telephone messages, e-mail messages, or in postings on the Internet on websites, or to newsgroups or to listservers.

NON-COMPETITION AND NON-SOLICITATION

For the purposes of this Release, “Competing Business” means:

	(a)		the design, manufacture or distribution of active lifestyle apparel and accessories (including, without limitation, yoga and other athletic apparel and accessories); and
