11	Litigation

The Company is subject to various legal actions and proceedings in the normal course of business, including those related to product liability and environmental matters. The Company is insured against loss for certain of these matters. Although litigation is subject to many uncertainties and the ultimate exposure with respect to these matters cannot be ascertained, management does not believe the final outcome of any pending litigation will have a material adverse effect on the financial condition, results of operations, liquidity or cash flows of the Company.

On February 21, 2003, the Competition Department of the European Commission initiated formal proceedings in a case concerning certain provisions in the former distribution arrangements of the Company’s European SCUBAPRO UWATEC subsidiaries. On January 29, 2004, the Commission notified the Company of its decision to close the file without taking any further action.

On December 22, 2003, the Company entered into a confidential settlement agreement with a former employee. Under the terms of the agreement the Company is entitled to receive up to $2.0 million. Any consideration received pursuant to the settlement agreement will be recorded in the quarter in which it occurs.

See Note 10 in the notes to the consolidated financial statements for the definition of segment net sales and operating profits.

Net sales on a consolidated basis for the three months ended April 2, 2004 totaled $95.6 million, an increase of 14.8% or $12.3 million, compared to $83.3 million in the three months ended March 28, 2003. Foreign currency translations favorably impacted quarterly sales by $2.6 million. Three of the Company’s business units had sales growth over the prior year. The Motors business sales increased $4.6 million, or 16.7%, to $31.9 million as a result of sales of new products as well as continued distribution channel expansion. Sales for the Outdoor Equipment business increased $5.4 million, or 28.6%, to $24.2 million. Military sales in the current fiscal year accounted for this growth. The Company does not necessarily expect the same level of growth in Military sales in future years. The Watercraft business sales declined $0.2 million, or 1.3%, to $19.7 million. The Diving business sales increased $2.3 million, or 13.4%, to $20.0 million helped primarily by the strengthening of the Euro against the U.S. Dollar.

Net sales for the six months ended April 2, 2004 totaled $158.5 million, an increase of 14.7% or $20.3 million, compared to $138.2 million in the six months ended March 28, 2003. Foreign currency translations favorably impacted year-to-date sales by $5.2 million. All four of the Company’s business units had sales growth over the prior year. The Motors business sales increased $7.6 million, or 17.8%, to $49.9 million as a result of sales of new products as well as continued distribution channel expansion. Sales for the Outdoor Equipment business increased $9.3 million, or 30.2%, to $40.0 million mainly as a result of strength in Military sales. The Watercraft business sales increased $0.2 million, or 0.9%, to $32.1 million. The Diving business sales increased $2.8 million, or 8.3%, to $37.0 million, helped primarily by the strengthening of the Euro against the U.S. Dollar.

Relative to the U.S. dollar, the average values of most currencies of the countries in which the Company has operations were higher for the three months and six months ended April 2, 2004 as compared to the corresponding period of the prior year. The Diving business in particular was favorably impacted by foreign currency movements. The favorable impact of foreign currency movements on Companywide net sales was 3.1% and 3.5% for the three and six months ended April 2, 2004

Gross profit as a percentage of sales was 44.2% for the three months ended April 2, 2004 compared to 43.5% in the corresponding period in the prior year. Margins in the Motors and Diving businesses were improved over the prior year, while the Outdoor Equipment margins declined as expected on lower margin Military contracts and Watercraft business saw margins decline 2.3 percentage points due to continued operational efficiency issues, including unfavorable labor variances and unfavorable absorption variances.

The Motors business improved margins by 7.7 percentage points over the year ago quarter primarily from new products and product mix. The Diving business improved margins by 4.3 percentage points over the year ago quarter, primarily through manufacturing efficiencies and currency gains.

Gross profit as a percentage of sales was 43.7% for the six months ended April 2, 2004 compared to 43.3% in the corresponding period in the prior year. Margin improvements in the Motors and Diving businesses helped to offset declines in margins in the Outdoor Equipment and Watercraft businesses.

The Company recognized operating profit of $8.7 million for the three months ended April 2, 2004 compared to an operating profit of $6.1 million for the corresponding period of the prior year.

Operating profit improved when compared to the prior year. For the six months ended April 2, 2004 operating profit was $10.0 million compared to operating profit in the prior year period of $6.3 million. Higher sales in the Motors and Outdoor Equipment businesses and gross profit improvements in the Motors and Diving businesses drove the increase in operating profits. Watercraft operating profit was substantially below prior year, due to soft market conditions and operating inefficiencies.

Interest expense totaled $1.1 million for the three months ended April 2, 2004 compared to $1.3 million for the corresponding period of the prior year. In the current year, the Company benefited from scheduled reductions in overall debt. Interest expense totaled $2.4 million for the six months ended April 2, 2004 compared to $2.7 million for the corresponding period of the prior year.

Foreign currency gains (losses) realized from transactions were ($0.1) million for both the three and six months ended April 2, 2004 and $2.7 and $3.0 million in the corresponding periods of the prior year.

The Company’s effective tax rate for the six months ended April 2, 2004 was 37.3%, compared to 39.4% for the corresponding period of the prior year, primarily due to the geographic mix of earnings.

JOHNSON OUTDOORS INC.

Net Income

Net income for the three months ended April 2, 2004 was $4.8 million, or $0.55 per diluted share, compared to $4.3 million, or $0.50 per diluted share, for the corresponding period of the prior year.

Net income for the six months ended April 2, 2004 was $5.0 million, or $0.57 per diluted share, compared to $4.0 million, or $0.47 per diluted share, for the corresponding period of the prior year.

Going Private Proposal

On February 20, 2004, the Company received a nonbinding proposal to acquire outstanding shares of Class A and Class B common stock of the Company for a cash price of $18.00 per share. The proposal is from Samuel C. Johnson (majority shareholder and director of the Company) and Helen P. Johnson-Leipold (Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and director of the Company) and pertains to all shares of the Company not already owned by them, any member of their family or entities controlled by them.

According to the proposal, the intent is to return full ownership in the Company to the Johnson family, and for all other holders of outstanding common stock to receive cash for their shares, through a negotiated merger transaction. The proposal also states that Mr. Johnson and Ms. Johnson–Leipold have no interest in selling their shares and will not support an alternative transaction. The proposal further states that no changes are anticipated in the Company’s current business as a result of the proposed transaction.

In response to the proposal, the Board of Directors of the Company has appointed a special committee of independent directors to evaluate the proposal on behalf of the Company. The members of the special committee are Thomas F. Pyle, Jr., Terry E. London and John M. Fahey, Jr. The special committee has retained its own independent financial and legal advisors. The special committee is currently evaluating the proposal.

Subsequent Events

The Company will file additional information pertaining to the acquisition of Techsonic Industries, Inc. as required on Form 8-K.

Financial Condition

The Company’s cash flow from operating, investing and financing activities, as reflected in the consolidated statements of cash flows, is summarized in the following table:


(millions)			Three Months Ended
	April 2 2004			March 28 2003
Cash used for:
Operating activities	$	(42.2	)	$	(51.6	)
Investing activities		(3.2	)		(3.4	)
Financing activities		(8.0	)		(7.4	)
Effect of exchange rate changes		0.8			6.3

Decrease in cash and temporary cash investments	$	(52.7	)	$	(56.0	)

As of the end of the Company’s second fiscal quarter, it is heavily invested in operating assets to support the Company’s selling season, which is strongest in the second and third quarters of the Company’s fiscal year.

The Company’s debt to equity ratio has declined to 30% as of April 2, 2004 from 36% as of March 28, 2003, reflective of further strengthening the Company’s liquidity and strategic flexibility.

Operating Activities

Cash flows used for operations totaled $42.2 million for the six months ended April 2, 2004 compared with $51.6 million used for operations for the corresponding period of the prior year.

Accounts receivable increased $36.6 million for the six months ended April 2, 2004, compared to an increase of $30.2 million in the year ago period. Inventories increased by $16.2 million for the six months ended April 2, 2004 compared to an increase of $18.9 million in the prior year period. The inventory build in the current year is primarily related to a build-up of products for the Diving business and timing of Military tent orders in the Outdoor Equipment business. The Company believes it is producing products at levels adequate to meet expected customer demand.

Accounts payable and accrued liabilities increased $3.5 million for the six months ended April 2, 2004 versus a decrease of $5.4 million for the corresponding period of the prior year. This change is due to the timing of the settlement of short term accrued obligations.

Depreciation and amortization charges were $3.9 million for the six months ended April 2, 2004 and $4.0 million for the corresponding period of the prior year.

Investing Activities

Cash used for investing activities, consisting solely of expenditures for property, plant and equipment, totaled $3.2 million for the six months ended April 2, 2004 versus $3.4 million for the corresponding period of the prior year. The Company’s recurring investments are made primarily for tooling for new products and enhancements. In 2004, capitalized expenditures are anticipated to be in line with prior year levels. These expenditures are expected to be funded by working capital or existing credit facilities.

Financing Activities

Cash flows used for financing activities totaled $8.0 million for the six months ended April 2, 2004 and $7.4 million for the corresponding period of the prior year. The Company made principal payments on senior notes and other long-term debt of $9.5 million and $8.0 million in November 2003 and 2002, respectively.

-13-

JOHNSON OUTDOORS INC.

In addition to cash generated by operating activities, the Company has access to existing financing sources, including its $70.0 million unsecured revolving credit facility. This facility expires in August 2004. The Company expects to pursue a renewal of this facility. At April 2, 2004, the Company had no outstanding borrowings on this credit agreement.

Obligations and Off Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Company has obligations and commitments to make future payments under debt and operating leases. The following schedule details these obligations at April 2, 2004.


(millions)	Payment Due by Fiscal Years
	Total		Remaining 2004		2005/2006		2007/2008		After 2008

Long-term debt ⁽¹⁾	$	67.1	$	0.1	$	29.2	$	27.8	$	10.0
Operating lease obligations		18.6		2.6		7.3		4.1		4.6
Outstanding purchase orders		36.2		36.2		--		--		--

Total contractual obligations	$	122.2	$	38.9	$	36.5	$	31.9	$	14.6

⁽¹⁾ Excludes fair value adjustment of hedged debt.

The Company also utilizes letters of credit for trade financing purposes. Letters of credit outstanding at April 2, 2004 total $1.9 million.

The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements.

Market Risk Management

The Company is exposed to market risk stemming from changes in foreign exchange rates, interest rates and, to a lesser extent, commodity prices. Changes in these factors could cause fluctuations in earnings and cash flows. The Company may reduce exposure to certain of these market risks by entering into hedging transactions authorized under Company policies that place controls on these activities. Hedging transactions involve the use of a variety of derivative financial instruments. Derivatives are used only where there is an underlying exposure, not for trading or speculative purposes.

Foreign Operations

The Company has significant foreign operations, for which the functional currencies are denominated primarily in Euros, Swiss francs, Japanese yen and Canadian dollars. As the values of the currencies of the foreign countries in which the Company has operations increase or decrease relative to the U.S. Dollar, the sales, expenses, profits, assets and liabilities of the Company’s foreign operations, as reported in the Company’s consolidated financial statements, increase or decrease, accordingly. The Company has in the past mitigated a portion of the fluctuations in certain foreign currencies through the purchase of foreign currency swaps, forward contracts and options to hedge known commitments, primarily for purchases of inventory and other assets denominated in foreign currencies; however, no such transactions were entered into during fiscal 2003 or the first two quarters of fiscal 2004.

Interest Rates

The Company’s debt structure and interest rate risk are managed through the use of fixed and floating rate debt. The Company’s primary exposure is to United States interest rates. The Company also periodically enters into interest rate swaps, caps or collars to hedge its exposure and lower financing costs.

JOHNSON OUTDOORS INC.

Commodities

Certain components used in the Company’s products are exposed to commodity price changes. The Company manages this risk through instruments such as purchase orders and non-cancelable supply contracts. Primary commodity price exposures are metals, plastics and packaging materials.

Sensitivity to Changes in Value

The estimates that follow are intended to measure the maximum potential fair value or earnings the Company could lose in one year from adverse changes in market interest rates under normal market conditions. The calculations are not intended to represent actual losses in fair value or earnings that the Company expects to incur. The estimates do not consider favorable changes in market rates. The table below presents the estimated maximum potential one year loss in fair value of debt and earnings before income taxes from a 100 basis point movement in interest rates on the senior notes outstanding at April 2, 2004:


(millions)	Estimated Impact on
	Fair Value		Earnings Before Income Taxes

Interest rate instruments	$	1.3		$	0.7

The Company has outstanding $67.0 million in unsecured senior notes as of April 2, 2004. The senior notes have interest rates that range from 6.98% to 7.82% and principal payments through December 2008. The fair market value of the Company’s fixed rate debt was $75.2 million as of April 2, 2004.

The Company has entered into interest rate swap agreements on a portion of its senior notes. As of April 2, 2004, the notional amount of the swaps was $4.2 million. The swap agreements effectively reduced interest rates to a range of 4.55% to 3.90% on the notional amounts. The swap agreements expire in fiscal year 2005. The fair market value of the Company’s swap agreements was less than $0.1 million as of April 2, 2004.

On November 6, 2003, the Company terminated the swap instruments relating to the 1998 and 2001 debt instruments. The Company realized gains on the 1998 and 2001 instruments of $0.2 million and $0.7 million, respectively. The gains are being amortized as a reduction in interest expense over the remaining life of the underlying debt instruments.

Other Factors

The Company has not been significantly impacted by inflationary pressures over the last several years. The Company anticipates that changing costs of basic raw materials may impact future operating costs and, accordingly, the prices of its products. The Company is involved in continuing programs to mitigate the impact of cost increases through changes in product design and identification of sourcing and manufacturing efficiencies. Price increases and, in certain situations, price decreases are implemented for individual products, when appropriate.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The Company’s critical accounting policies are identified in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending October 3, 2003 in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations under the heading “Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates.” There were no significant changes to the Company’s critical accounting policies during the three and six months ended April 2, 2004.

6.4 PROCEDURES FOR INDEMNIFICATION . A claim for indemnification hereunder (“ Indemnification Claim ”) shall be made by the Indemnitee by delivery of a written notice to the Indemnitor requesting indemnification and specifying the basis on which indemnification is sought and the amount of the Losses incurred (if known) or to be incurred and, in the case of a Third Party Claim, containing (by attachment or otherwise) such other information as the Indemnitee shall have concerning such Third Party Claim. If the Indemnification Claim involves a Third Party Claim the procedures set forth in Section 6.4.2 hereof shall be observed by the Indemnitee and the Indemnitor.

6.4.1 General Claims . If the Indemnification Claim involves a matter other than a Third Party Claim and other than a claim relating to the Closing Working Capital, the Indemnitor shall have thirty (30) days to object to such Indemnification Claim by delivery of a written notice of such objection.

-31-

(a) Upon becoming aware of any Third Party Claim, the Indemnitee shall promptly notify the Indemnitor of all the facts and circumstances giving rise to the Third Party Claim known to the Indemnitee. The Indemnitor shall have thirty (30) days from receipt of such information from the Indemnitee to notify the Indemnitee, whether or not the Indemnitor disputes its Liability to the Indemnitee with respect to such Third Party Claim. Except where the Indemnitor timely disputes its Liability, the Indemnitor shall be conclusively liable for the Indemnitee’s Losses in connection with such Third Party Claim.

(b) For any Third Party Claim with respect to which the Indemnitor has acknowledged its indemnification obligation and sole responsibility for all Losses, the Indemnitor may elect upon written notice to the Indemnitee to assume the defense of such Third Party Claim at its own expense using counsel of its own choosing reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitee. In such case, the Indemnitee may elect to retain independent counsel and participate with respect to such Third Party Claim; provided, however, that the fees and expenses of such counsel incurred after the Indemnitee has been so notified by the Indemnitor that it will assume the defense shall be borne solely by the Indemnitee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indemnitor shall not be entitled to assume the defense of any Third Party Claim as to which the Indemnitee’s counsel shall have reasonably determined and notified the Indemnitor in writing that there may be a conflict of interest between the Indemnitor and the Indemnitee in the conduct of the defense of such Third Party Claim (a “ Conflict ”). Notwithstanding the assumption by the Indemnitor of the defense of any Third Party Claim, the Indemnitee shall be entitled to indemnification under this Section 6.4.2 for fees and expenses incurred in the defense of such Third Party Claim (A) if such Indemnitee’s counsel shall have reasonably determined and notified the Indemnitor in writing that there may be a Conflict; or (B) for periods prior to the date the Indemnitee receives written notice that the Indemnitor will assume the defense of such Third Party Claim.

(c) For all Third Party Claims other than Third Party Claims for which the Indemnitor has assumed the defense pursuant to Section 6.4.2(b) hereof, regardless of whether the Indemnitor disputes its indemnification obligation and responsibility for the Indemnitee’s Losses with respect to such Third Party Claim, the Indemnitee may engage counsel of its choosing and proceed to defend the Third Party Claim. The fees and expenses of such counsel shall be included as part of the Indemnitee’s Losses. The Indemnitor’s counsel may participate with respect to such Third Party Claim; provided, however, that the Indemnitee shall have sole discretion with respect to the settlement or compromise of any such Third Party Claim.

(d) The Indemnitee and Indemnitor shall cooperate with each other in all reasonable respects in connection with the defense of any Third Party Claim, including making available records relating to such Third Party Claim and furnishing, without expense to the defending party and/or its counsel, such employees of the Indemnitee and Indemnitor as may be reasonably necessary for the preparation of the defense of any such Third Party Claim or for testimony as witnesses in any proceeding relating to such Third Party Claim.

6.4.3 Certain Provisions Applicable to Indemnification Obligations . Except for any willful or knowing breach or misrepresentation or fraud or claims for breach of a representation or warranty made in or pursuant to Section 4.1.7 hereof, as to which claims may be brought without limitation, the right of any Indemnitee to indemnification of Losses for a breach or inaccuracy in any representation or warranty set forth herein or in the IP Purchase Agreement shall be subject to the following provisions:

-32-

(a) The amount of any Liability of an Indemnitor to indemnify for Losses, in the aggregate, shall not exceed an amount equal to thirty-five percent (35%) of the sum of (i) the Purchase Price, as finally determined pursuant to Section 2.3.3 or Section 2.3.4 hereof plus (ii) the IP Purchase Price.

(b) Except with respect to claims for breach of a representation or warranty made in or pursuant to Section 4.1.22 hereof or the third sentence of Section 4.1.26 (pertaining to retroactive insurance rate or premium adjustments), as to which claims may be brought, individually or in the aggregate, without the limitation of this Section 6.4.3(b), an Indemnitor shall not be required to indemnify, defend or hold harmless any Indemnitee, unless the cumulative amount of all Losses suffered in the aggregate by any or all of the Indemnitees of such Indemnitor exceeds one percent (1%) of the sum of (i) the Purchase Price, as finally determined pursuant to Section 2.3.3 or Section 2.3.4 hereof plus (ii) the IP Purchase Price (the “ Threshold Amount ”), whereupon only the amount of all such Losses exceeding the Threshold Amount shall be recoverable by the applicable Indemnitees to the extent otherwise entitled to indemnification pursuant to this Agreement.

(c) An Indemnitor shall only be required to indemnify, defend or hold harmless any Indemnitee with respect to Losses which are asserted by notice to such Indemnitor prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date which is within one (1) year following the Closing Date. Regardless of the foregoing, however, or any other provision of this Agreement:

(i) There shall be no time limitation on claims or actions brought for breach of any representation or warranty made in or pursuant to Section 4.1.4 hereof or the first sentence of Section 4.1.11 hereof, and Seller hereby waives all applicable statutory limitation periods with respect thereto.

(ii) Any claim or action brought for breach of any representation or warranty made in or pursuant to Section 4.1.22 hereof may be brought at any time until ninety (90) days after the Claim is barred by the latest applicable period of limitation under Laws relating thereto (as such period may be extended by waiver).

(iii) Any claim or action brought for breach of any representation or warranty made in or pursuant to Section 4.1.21 hereof may be brought at any time within eighteen (18) months following the Closing Date.

(iv) Any claim or action brought for breach of any representation or warranty made in or pursuant to Section 4.1.19 hereof may be brought at any time within seven (7) years following the Closing Date.

(v) If any act, omission, disclosure or failure to disclose shall form the basis for a claim for breach of more than one representation or warranty, and such claims have different periods of survival hereunder, the termination of the survival period of one claim shall not affect a party’s right to make a claim based on the breach of representation or warranty still surviving.

-33-

(d) Indemnification of an Indemnitee by the applicable Indemnitor shall be limited to the amount of any Liability that remains after deducting therefrom (and the cumulative amount of all Losses for purposes of determining the Threshold Amount above shall be reduced by the amount of) (i) any Tax Benefit to such Indemnitee, and (ii) any insurance proceeds or any indemnity or contribution payment actually received by such Indemnitee from any third party with respect thereto.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, (i) Seller shall have no Liability to indemnify any Indemnitee for any Losses to the extent that such Losses result from or arise out of actions taken by Buyer, the Company or any of their respective Affiliates after the Closing Date, (ii) except for any Liability to an Indemnitee arising out of or resulting from a Third Party Claim, which Liability shall not be limited hereby, Seller shall have no Liability to indemnify any Indemnitee for any consequential, punitive, exemplary, incidental or special damages, and (iii) in no event shall any such Losses be included in the determination of whether the Threshold Amount has been reached.

Exhibit 10.1

JOHNSON OUTDOORS INC.
1987 EMPLOYEES’ STOCK PURCHASE PLAN

1. Purpose.

The Johnson Worldwide Associates, Inc. 1987 Employees’ Stock Purchase Plan (the “Plan”) has been established by Johnson Worldwide Associates, Inc., a Wisconsin corporation (the “Company”), to allow employees of the Company and its subsidiaries to purchase shares of Class A Common Stock of the Company (“Company Shares”) and thereby share in the ownership of the Company. The Plan is intended to comply with the requirements of Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).

2. Company Shares Available for Purchase.

Subject to adjustment, in accordance with Paragraph 13, the maximum number of Company Shares which may be purchased pursuant to the Plan shall be 210,000. Company Shares issued under the Plan may be authorized and unissued shares or treasury shares of the Company.

3. Administration.

The Plan shall be administered by a committee of the Board of Directors of the Company consisting of not less than two (2) directors appointed for such purpose (the “Compensation Committee”). The members of the Compensation Committee shall not, during the one-year period preceding their appointment to the Compensation Committee or during such service, have been granted or awarded any equity securities, purchase rights or options pursuant to the Plan or any other plan of the Company or its subsidiaries, except as otherwise permitted for “disinterested persons” within the meaning of Rule 16b-3 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 or any successor provision. A majority of the members of the Compensation Committee shall constitute a quorum. All determinations of the Compensation Committee shall be made by at least a majority of its members. Any decision or determination reduced to writing and signed by all of the members of the Compensation Committee shall be fully as effective as it if had been made by a unanimous vote at a meeting duly called and held.

In accordance with the provisions of the Plan, the Compensation Committee shall establish such terms and conditions for the grants of purchase rights as the Compensation Committee may deem necessary or advisable, adopt such rules or regulations which may become necessary or advisable for the operation of the Plan, and make such determinations, and take such other actions, as are expressly authorized or contemplated in the Plan or as may be required for the proper administration of the Plan in accordance with its terms. The Compensation Committee, in its discretion, may appoint an individual (the “Plan Administrator”) to assist the Compensation Committee in corresponding with employees, with record keeping and in performing other administerial type functions in connection with the Plan; provided, however, that the Plan Administrator shall exercise no discretion with respect to the interpretation of the Plan or the of rights to purchase Company Shares pursuant to the Plan. The interpretation of any provision of the Plan by the Compensation Committee and any determination on the matters referred to in this paragraph shall be final.

4. Eligibility.

From time to time the Compensation Committee shall designate from the group consisting of the Company, its parent and subsidiary corporations (which may include corporations having become a parent or subsidiary of the Company after the effective date of the Plan), the corporations whose employees may participate in the Plan (a “Designated Corporation”). On any date as of which a determination of eligibility is made, the term “Eligible Employee” shall mean a “full-time” employee of a Designated Corporation who is of legal age for the purpose of executing a binding contract not subject to disaffirmance in the state of his residence, other than a “highly compensated employee” who has been granted or awarded a stock option, stock appreciation right or stock award under the Johnson Outdoors Inc. 2000 Long-Term Stock Incentive Plan. For purposes of the Plan, (a) “full-time” employee of a Designated Corporation means an employee thereof who customarily works at least 20 hours per week and more than five months per calendar year, (b) “subsidiary” and “parent” have the meanings given such terms in Section 425 of the Code, and (c) “highly compensated employee” has the meaning given to such term in Section 414(q) of the Code.

5. Grant of Purchase Rights.

In the discretion of the Compensation Committee, each calendar year, or more frequently if deemed appropriate, beginning on such date as the Committee may specify (the “Grant Date”), each employee who is then an Eligible Employee of a Designated Corporation shall automatically be granted the right to purchase a maximum of 250 Company Shares. In its discretion, the Compensation Committee may change the maximum number of Company Shares available for purchase by each Eligible Employee; provided that the maximum number of shares available for purchase shall be the same for all Eligible Employees and all Eligible Employees shall have the same rights and privileges with respect to the purchase of Company Shares under the Plan. However, nothing contained herein shall require the Compensation Committee to cause any purchase rights to be granted hereunder during any calendar year and the Compensation Committee may, in connection with any grant of rights, specify the maximum number of Company Shares in the aggregate available for purchase by all Eligible Employees during any Purchase Period (the “Maximum Number of Purchase Period Company Shares”).

Each purchase right shall be exercisable during the 30-day period following the Grant Date (such period is hereinafter referred to as the “Purchase Period”), subject to the limitations provided in paragraphs 2 and 8. In the event the Compensation Committee decides to cause any purchase rights to be granted under the Plan, the Company shall send to each Eligible Employee a written notice specifying the Grant Date and the terms and conditions of the right, including the purchase price per share of Company Shares subject to such right. No Company Shares may be issued pursuant to the exercise of purchase rights after the maximum number of Company Shares provided for in paragraph 2 has been purchased. Each purchase right granted pursuant to this paragraph 5 shall expire at 12:00 P.M., 30 days after the Grant Date.

-2-

6. Exercise of Purchase Rights.

Subject to the limitations elsewhere in the Plan, including the limitations on exercise set forth in paragraph 8, employees may exercise their rights to purchase Company Shares granted under the Plan, in whole, or in part, at any time during the Purchase Period; provided, however, that no employee shall be entitled to exercise his purchase rights for less than the Applicable Minimum Number, as defined below, of Company Shares. Employees wishing to exercise their rights to purchase Company Shares granted under the Plan shall make applications on forms prescribed by the Compensation Committee, which forms shall be deemed to include the full terms and conditions of the Plan. Each application to purchase Company Shares shall be accompanied by payment in full to the Company, in cash or its equivalent, of the purchase price for such Company Shares. An application on the prescribed form, properly completed and accompanied by the required payment, shall be deemed to be accepted as of the last day of the Purchase Period, subject to adjustment in the number of Company Shares which may be purchased by the Eligible Employee as provided for pursuant to this paragraph 6. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no application shall be accepted unless received by the Plan Administrator or postmarked, if delivered by mail, on or before the last day of the Purchase Period. For purposes of this paragraph 6, the “Applicable Minimum Number” of Company Shares which may be purchased during a Purchase Period shall be such number of shares as the Compensation Committee, in its discretion, may determine.

If applications to purchase a number of Company Shares in excess of the Maximum Number of Purchase Period Company Shares are received by the Plan Administrator, each employee properly exercising purchase rights during such Purchase Period shall be entitled to purchase the number of Company Shares determined by the sum of:

(a) the Applicable Minimum Number of Company Shares; and

(b) a pro rata portion of the Company Shares available after satisfying each employee’s minimum purchase rights based on the number of shares with respect to which such employee has exercised his purchase rights and the aggregate number of shares with respect to which all employees have exercised purchase rights during the Purchase Period.

Notwithstanding any other provisions in this paragraph 6, the Compensation Committee may adjust the number of Company Shares which may be purchased by an employee according to such non-discriminatory rules and regulations as the Compensation Committee may establish.

7. Purchase Price.

The purchase price per share of each purchase right granted under the Plan shall be the lesser of (a) 85% of the fair market value, as determined by the Compensation Committee, of a Company Share on the Grant Date and (b) 85% of the fair market value, as determined by the Compensation Committee, of a Company Share at the end of the Purchase Period. Unless otherwise determined by the Compensation Committee, the fair market value of a Company Share shall be the closing price of a Company Share in the over-the-counter market on the trading date preceding the specified date, as reported by the Nasdaq National Market (or if such day is a day for which no closing price for a Company Share is so set forth, the next preceding day for which a closing price is so set forth). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the purchase price per share of a Company Share shall in no event be less than the par value of a Company Share.

-3-

8. Individual Limitation.

No employee shall be granted the right to purchase any Company Shares hereunder if such employee would own, directly or indirectly, stock possessing 5% or more of the total combined voting power or value of all classes of stock of the Company or any subsidiary or any parent of the Company. For purposes of this 5% limitation, an employee will be considered as owning all stock which the employee may purchase under any outstanding right or option, regardless of the characterization and treatment of such right or option under the Code, and a right or option will be considered outstanding even though under its terms it may be exercised only in installments or only after the expiration of a fixed period of time. An employee will be considered as owning stock attributable to him pursuant to Section 425(d) of the Code. Moreover, no employee may be granted a right to purchase Company Shares under the Plan which permits such employee’s rights to purchase stock under the Plan and all employee stock purchase plans (as defined in Section 423 of the Code) of the Company and its parent and subsidiary corporations to accrue at a rate which exceeds $25,000 of the fair market value of such stock (determined at the time such right is granted) for each calendar year in which such right is outstanding at any time. The right to purchase Company Shares shall be deemed to accrue when the right or option (or any part thereof) first becomes exercisable during the calendar year.

9. Limitations on Exercise of Purchase Rights.

Purchase rights granted under the Plan shall not become exercisable until such time as the Company Shares which may be issued pursuant to the Plan (i) have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), and any applicable state and foreign securities laws; or (ii) in the opinion of the Company’s counsel, may be issued pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Act and in compliance with any applicable state and foreign securities laws.

10. Stock Certificates.

Certificates covering the Company Shares purchased under the Plan shall be issued as soon as reasonably practicable after the last day of the Purchase Period. The Company will pay all stamp taxes and the like, and all fees, in connection with such issue.

11. Nontransferability of Purchase Rights.

An employee’s right to exercise purchase rights under the Plan shall not be transferable by such employee and may be exercised only by the employee. An employee’s right to exercise purchase rights may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned or otherwise alienated or hypothecated.

-4-

12. Termination of Employment.

In the event of termination of employment of an employee, whether on account of death, discharge, resignation or any other reason, all rights of the employee to exercise purchase rights under the Plan shall terminate.

13. Adjustments.

In order to prevent dilution or enlargement of purchase rights, in the event of reorganization, recapitalization, stock split, stock dividend, combination of shares, merger, consolidation or other change in Company Shares, the Compensation Committee shall make appropriate changes in the number of Company Shares which may be purchased pursuant to the Plan, and the number of Company Shares covered by, and the purchase price under, each outstanding purchase right, and such other changes in the Plan and outstanding purchase rights as the Compensation Committee may deem appropriate under the circumstances. No rights to purchase a fractional Company Share shall result from any such change.

14. Restrictions on Stock Transferability.

The Compensation Committee shall impose such non-discriminatory restrictions on the transfer of any shares of stock acquired pursuant to the exercise of a purchase right under the Plan as it may deem advisable, including, without limitation, restrictions under applicable Federal securities law, under the requirements of any stock exchange upon which such shares of stock are then listed, if any, and under any state and foreign securities laws applicable to such shares.

15. Amendment/Termination.

The Board of Directors may amend or terminate the Plan at any time, but any such amendment or termination (other than an adjustment contemplated by paragraph 13) shall not affect purchase rights outstanding at the time thereof; provided, however, that the Board of Directors may not, without the approval of the shareholders of the Company, amend the Plan to (i) increase the maximum number of Company Shares which may be purchased pursuant to the Plan (except as provided in paragraph 13); (ii) modify the requirements as to eligibility for participation in the Plan; (iii) change the class of corporations whose employees will be granted purchase rights under the Plan; or (iv) materially increase the benefits to participants under the Plan.

16. Applicable Law.

The Plan shall, to the extent not inconsistent with applicable federal law, be construed under the laws of the State of Wisconsin.

17. Effective Date.

The Plan shall become effective as of the date of its adoption by the Board of Directors of the Company, subject to approval of the Plan by the shareholders within twelve months of such effective date. Purchase rights may be granted prior to such approval, provided that such purchase rights shall be subject to such approval and shall not be exercised until after such approval.

Last amended on December 4, 2003.

Exhibit 10.2

JOHNSON OUTDOORS INC.

2003 NON-EMPLOYEE DIRECTOR STOCK OWNERSHIP PLAN

Section 1: Purpose

The purpose of the Johnson Outdoors Inc. 2003 Non-Employee Director Stock Ownership Plan (the “Plan”) is to promote the long-term growth and financial success of Johnson Outdoors Inc. (the “Company”) by attracting and retaining non-employee directors of outstanding ability and assisting the Company in promoting a greater identity of interest between the Company’s non-employee directors and its shareholders.

Section 2: Definitions

As used in the Plan, the following terms have the respective meanings set forth below:

(a) “Award” means any Stock Option or Stock Award granted under the Plan.

(b) “Black-Scholes Model” means the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model, which shall be used to calculate the fair value of Stock Option grants under the Plan, as of the date of such grant. Six factors are required to calculate the value of a Stock Option using the Black-Scholes Model: the Stock Option’s exercise price; the current price of the Common Stock; the dividend yield of the Common Stock; the Stock Option’s time to expiration; the risk-free market rate of return; and the future volatility of the Common Stock. Only the future volatility of the Common Stock cannot be objectively determined. In connection with using the Black-Scholes Model to calculate the fair value of Stock Option grants under the Plan, the Committee may use such variations of the Black-Scholes Model and parameters and procedures respecting the Black-Scholes Model, including, without limitation, parameters and procedures used to measure the historical volatility of the Common Stock as of the relevant grant date, as the Committee deems reasonably appropriate in its sole discretion.

(d) “Committee” means a committee of the Board that the Board designates to administer the Plan. The Committee shall consist of not less than two directors, each of whom shall qualify as a “non-employee director” within the meaning of Rule 16b-3 (“Rule 16b-3”) under the 1934 Act, or any successor provisions thereto, as an “outside director” under Section 162(m)(4)(C) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), or any successor provisions thereto and as an “independent” director pursuant to the definition of independence in the listing requirements of the principal national securities exchange, national securities association or over-the-counter market on which the Common Stock is traded, if any. If at any time the Committee shall not be in existence, then the members of the Board that do qualify as non-employee directors, outside directors and independent directors shall administer the Plan and shall be deemed to be the Committee for purposes of the Plan.

(e) “Common Stock” means the Class A Common Stock, $.05 par value, of the Company and such other securities or property as may become subject to Awards pursuant to an adjustment made under Section 4(b) of the Plan.

(f) “Fair Market Value” means the fair market value of the Common Stock determined by such methods or procedures as shall be established from time to time by the Committee; provided, however, that the Fair Market Value shall not be less than the par value of the Common Stock; and provided further, that so long as the Common Stock is traded on the Nasdaq National Market, the Nasdaq Smallcap Market or another over-the-counter market, the Fair Market Value shall be the average of the bid and asked prices of a share of Common Stock in the applicable over-the-counter market on the specified date, as reported by the National Association of Securities Dealers (or if no sales occurred on such date, the last preceding date on which sales occurred); provided, however, that if the principal market for the Common Stock is then a national securities exchange, the Fair Market Value shall be the average of the high and low prices of a share of Common Stock on the principal securities exchange on which the Common Stock is traded on the specified date (or if no sales occurred on such date, the last preceding date on which sales occurred).

(g) “1934 Act” means the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended from time to time.

(h) “Participant” means a director of the Board who is not an employee of the Company, or any entity that is directly or indirectly controlled by the Company or any entity in which the Company has a significant interest as determined by the Committee.

(i) “Shares” means shares of Common Stock.

(j) “Stock Award” means an Award to a Participant comprised of Shares granted under Section 5(b) or 5(c) of the Plan.

(k) “Stock Option” means an award in the form of the right to purchase a specified number of Shares at a specified price during a specified period granted under Section 5(a) or 5(c) of the Plan.

Section 3: Effective Dates

The Plan shall become effective on December 4, 2003, subject to the approval of the Plan by the shareholders of the Company at the Company’s 2004 annual meeting of shareholders. To the extent that any Awards are granted under the Plan prior to its approval by shareholders, the grants shall be contingent on approval of the Plan by the shareholders of the Company. No Awards may be made under the Plan after December 4, 2013 or earlier termination of the Plan by the Board.

Section 4: Stock Available for Awards

(a) Common Shares Available. The maximum number of Shares available for Awards under the Plan may not exceed 150,000 shares of Common Stock (subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 4(b) hereof).

(b) Adjustments and Reorganizations. In the event that the Committee shall determine that any dividend (other than a normal cash dividend) or other distribution (whether in the form of cash, Common Stock, other securities or other property), recapitalization, stock split, reverse stock split, reorganization, merger, consolidation, split-up, spin-off, combination, repurchase or exchange of Common Stock or other securities of the Company, issuance of warrants or other rights to purchase Common Stock or other securities of the Company, or other similar corporate transaction or event affects the Common Stock such that an adjustment is determined by the Committee to be necessary or appropriate to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available to Participants under the Plan, then the Committee may, in such manner as it may deem equitable, adjust any or all of the (i) number and type of Shares available under the Plan and that thereafter may be made the subject of Awards under the Plan, and (ii) number and type and exercise price of Shares subject to outstanding Stock Options, provided any such adjustments are consistent with the effect on other shareholders arising from any such action. The Committee may also make such similar appropriate adjustments in the calculation of Fair Market Value as it deems necessary or appropriated to prevent dilution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available to Participants under the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (x) Stock Options subject to grant or previously granted under the Plan at the time of any event described above shall be subject to only such adjustment as shall be necessary to maintain the proportionate interest of the Participant and preserve, without exceeding, the value of such Stock Options, and (y) the number of Shares subject to Stock Awards under the Plan at the time of any event described above shall be subject to only such adjustment as shall be necessary to maintain the relative proportionate interest represented by such Shares immediately prior to any such event.

(c) Change of Control. In order to preserve a Participant’s rights under a Stock Option granted under the Plan in the event of any sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets, merger, consolidation, combination or other corporate reorganization, restructuring or change of control of the Company (“Change of Control”) (the Committee in its sole discretion will determine if there has been a Change of Control), the Committee in its discretion may, at the time the Stock Option is granted or at any time thereafter, take one or more of the following actions: (i) provide for the acceleration of any time period relating to the exercise of the Stock Option; (ii) provide for the purchase of the Stock Option for an amount of cash or other property that could have been received upon the exercise of the Stock Option had the Stock Option been currently exercisable or payable; (iii) adjust the terms of the Stock Option in the manner determined by the Committee to reflect the Change of Control; (iv) cause the Stock Option to be assumed, or new right substituted for the Stock Option, by another entity; or (v) make such other provision as the Committee may consider equitable and in the best interests of the Company. If the terms of Section 4(b) and Section 4(c) would apply to a transaction, then the transaction will be subject to this Section 4(c) and not Section 4(b).

(d) Common Stock Usage. If, after the effective date of the Plan, any Shares covered by an Award granted under the Plan, or to which any Award relates, are forfeited or if an Award otherwise terminates, expires or is cancelled prior to the delivery of all of the Shares or of other consideration issuable or payable pursuant to such Award and if such forfeiture, termination, expiration or cancellation occurs prior to the payment of dividends or the exercise by the holder of other indicia of ownership of the Shares to which the Award relates, then the number of Shares counted against the number of Shares available under the Plan in connection with the grant of such Award, to the extent of any such forfeiture, termination, expiration or cancellation, shall again be available for granting of additional Awards under the Plan.

Section 5: Awards

(a) Stock Options. Commencing with the 2004 annual meeting of shareholders, the Company shall issue to each Participant, on the first business day following each annual meeting of shareholders until the Plan is terminated or amended, Stock Options having a fair value (calculated as of the date of the Stock Option grant using the Black-Scholes Model) of $10,000, or such other amount as the Committee may approve in connection with a specific grant (each an “Annual Stock Option”), provided , however , that a Participant who is first elected as a director of the Company on the date of an annual meeting of shareholders and who receives on that date a Stock Option pursuant to Section 5(c) hereof shall not be eligible to begin to receive grants of Stock Options pursuant to this Section 5(a) until the first business day following the next succeeding annual meeting of shareholders. The Committee shall specifically approve each grant of an Annual Stock Option to a continuing director in advance. The per share exercise price of each such Stock Option shall be the Fair Market Value of a Share of Common Stock on the date of the grant. The exercise price shall be payable at the time of exercise in cash, previously acquired Shares valued at their Fair Market Value or such other forms or combinations of forms of consideration as the Committee may approve. Each such Stock Option shall have a term of ten years and shall become fully exercisable one year following the date on which it is granted unless vesting is accelerated pursuant to Section 4(c) or Section 6(d) or (f).

(b) Stock Awards. Commencing with the 2004 annual meeting of shareholders, the Company shall issue to each Participant, on the first business day following each annual meeting of shareholders until the Plan is terminated or amended, Shares having a Fair Market Value (calculated as of the date of such Stock Award) of $10,000, or such other amount as the Committee may approve in connection with a specific grant (each an “Annual Stock Award”), provided , however , that a Participant who is first elected as a director of the Company on the date of an annual meeting of shareholders and who receives on that date a Stock Award pursuant to Section 5(c) hereof shall not be eligible to begin to receive Stock Awards pursuant to this Section 5(b) until the first business day following the next succeeding annual meeting of shareholders. The Committee shall specifically approve each grant of an Annual Stock Award to a continuing director in advance.

(c) Awards Upon Election . On the date on which a Participant is first elected or appointed as a director of the Company during the existence of the Plan, such Participant shall automatically receive as an initial grant the Awards referenced above, as if such Participant had been a director on the first business day following the most recent annual meeting of shareholders (collectively, “Initial Awards”). The Committee shall specifically approve each grant of Initial Awards to a newly elected director in advance. These Awards shall be valued as of the date of grant.

Section 6: General Provisions Applicable to Awards

(a) Transferability of Stock Options. Stock Options granted under the Plan shall not be transferable other than by will or under the laws of descent and distribution, except as otherwise provided by the Committee.

(b) Non-Transferability of Stock Awards. Shares awarded under Section 5(b) or Section 5(c) hereof shall not be assignable, alienable, saleable or otherwise transferable by the respective Participant until such Participant ceases for any reason to serve on the Board or a Change of Control is effected. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the following transfers or other dispositions will not be deemed to be a violation of the transfer restrictions set forth herein:

A gift or other transfer of Shares issued to (i) any trust or other estate in which such Participant has a substantial beneficial interest or as to which such Participant serves as a trustee or in a similar capacity or (ii) any relative or spouse of such Participant, or any relative of such spouse, who has the same home as the Participant which in either case would not change the Participant’s beneficial ownership of those Shares for purposes of reporting under Section 16(a) of the 1934 Act; provided, that any Shares transferred by gift or otherwise pursuant to this subparagraph will continue to be subject to the non-transfer restrictions of this Section as though such Shares were held by the Participant.

(c) Legend on Certificates. The Committee may cause a legend or legends to be put on any certificates for shares delivered under the Plan pursuant to any Stock Award or upon the exercise of any Stock Option to make appropriate references to any applicable transfer restrictions.

(d) Termination of Directorship. If for any reason other than death a Participant ceases to be a director of the Company one year or more after the director’s initial election or appointment to the Board while holding a vested Stock Option granted under the Plan, such Stock Option shall continue to be exercisable for a period of three years after such termination or the remainder of the Stock Option term, whichever is shorter (any unvested Stock Option shall be cancelled as of the date of such termination). If for any reason other than death a Participant ceases to be a director of the Company within one year of the director’s initial election or appointment to the Board, the Stock Option granted under the Plan and held by the director shall be cancelled as of the date of such termination. In the event a Participant dies, any unvested Stock Option granted under the Plan to such Participant shall immediately vest and be exercisable by the designated beneficiary, or, in the absence of a designated beneficiary, by will or in accordance with the laws of descent and distribution for a period of three years following the date of death.

(e) Documentation of Grants. Awards made under the Plan shall be evidenced by written agreements or such other appropriate documentation as the Committee shall prescribe, including an option agreement. The Committee need not require the execution of any instrument or acknowledgment of notice of an Award under the Plan, including an option agreement, in which case acceptance of such Award by the respective Participant will constitute agreement to the terms of the Award.

(f) Plan Amendment. The Board may at any time amend, alter, suspend, discontinue or terminate the Plan, including without limitation an amendment to decrease or increase the amount of the Awards under Section 4; provided, however, that shareholder approval of any amendment of the Plan shall be obtained if otherwise required by (a) the Code or any rules promulgated thereunder, (b) the listing requirements of the principal national securities exchange, national securities association or over-the-counter market on which the Common Stock is then traded, or (c) any other applicable law. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Committee may also amend the Plan, including without limitation an amendment to decrease or increase the amount of the Awards under Section 4, provided that any such amendments by the Committee shall be reported to the Board. Termination of the Plan shall not affect the right of Participants with respect to Stock Options previously granted to them, and all unexpired Stock Options shall continue in force and effect after termination of the Plan except as they may lapse or be terminated by their own terms and conditions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board and Committee are prohibited from amending Section 6(g) of the Plan without shareholder approval.

(g) Repricing Prohibited. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, and except for the adjustments provided in Section 4(b), the Committee and the Board are prohibited from decreasing the exercise price for any outstanding Stock Option granted to a Participant under the Plan after the date of grant or allowing a Participant to surrender an outstanding Stock Option granted under the Plan to the Company as consideration for the grant of a new Stock Option with a lower exercise price.

(h) No Rights as Shareholder. No Participant shall have any voting or dividend rights or other rights as a shareholder with respect to any Shares subject to a Stock Option granted under the Plan before the date of transfer to the Participant of a certificate or certificates for such Shares and recording of the Participant’s name on the Company’s shareholder ledger as the holder of record of such Shares.
