                         COMPROMISE SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT


1. PARTIES.

         This Compromise Settlement Agreement (this "Agreement") is executed and
entered into by and between:

1.1. Mobility Electronics, Inc. ("Mobility");

1.2. Portsmith, Inc. ("Portsmith") f/k/a Mobility Europe Holding, Inc.,
successor by merger to Portsmith, Inc.;

1.3. Holmes Lundt ("Lundt");

1.4. Jess Asla ("Asla");

1.5. Richard Neff ("Neff");

1.6. Dan Axtman ("Axtman") (Lundt, Asla, Neff, and Axtman will be referred to
collectively as the "Individual Defendants"; Portsmith and the Individual
Defendants will be referred to collectively as the "Defendants"); and,

1.7. Richard C. Liggitt as an individual and as the personal representative of
Portable Technologies, Inc. ("Liggitt") (Liggitt and Defendants will be referred
to collectively as the "Parties.")

2. RECITALS AND DEFINITIONS.

2.1. Liggitt and the Defendants are parties to a lawsuit (the "Lawsuit"), styled
Richard C. Liggitt vs. Portsmith, Inc., Holmes Lundt, Jess Asla, Richard Neff
and Dan Axtman, pending in the Superior Court of the State of California, County
of Orange, Case No. 02-CC-03308, wherein Liggitt has asserted against Defendants
claims for fraud, breach of fiduciary duty, wrongful termination, breach of
contract and alter ego and seeking, inter alia, alleged actual damages,

Action").

breach of contract and breach of fiduciary duties (collectively, the "Portsmith

Richard C. Liggitt vs. Snell & Wilmer, William T. Gay, and David S. Beard,

2.5. The Lawsuit and the Labor Complaint arise from that certain Agreement and
Plan of Merger (the "PTI Merger Agreement") dated on or about October 6, 2000,
between Portsmith, an entity known as Portable Technologies, Inc. ("PTI"), and
Liggitt, as the sole shareholder of PTI. The PTI Merger Agreement resulted in
the merger of PTI into Portsmith effective October 12, 2000.

2.6. In connection with the PTI Merger, Liggitt and Portsmith entered into an
employment agreement (the "Employment Agreement") and a noncompetition agreement
(the "Noncompetition Agreement").

2.7. On or about February 21, 2002, Mobility Europe Holdings, Inc., a wholly
owned subsidiary of Mobility, entered into a merger (the "Mobility Merger") with
Portsmith, Inc. and the surviving corporation was Mobility Europe Holdings,
Inc., which subsequently changed its name to Portsmith, Inc. The Mobility Merger
was effected pursuant to that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger (the
"Mobility Merger Agreement") dated as of February 20, 2002.

2.8. Liggitt and the Defendants have denied all liability to each other in
response to the respective claims made in the Lawsuit.

2.9. While continuing to deny liability and acting solely for the purposes of
compromising and settling their disputes and the Lawsuit, and in order to avoid
the risk, cost, and burden of further litigation and participation therein, the
Parties desire to settle all matters in controversy between them.

2.10. The Parties intend for this Agreement, and all of their obligations
hereunder, to be contingent and expressly conditioned upon an order from the
court presiding over the Lawsuit (the "Court") that this settlement is
reasonable and in good faith under and pursuant to California Code of Civil
Procedure section 877.6.

2.11. The "Effective Date" of this Agreement shall be the date upon which the
Court enters its determination that this settlement is reasonable and in good
faith under and pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure section 877.6.


NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, the obligations in this
Agreement and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency
of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereby agree as follows:

3. CONDITION PRECEDENT

3.1. The Parties agree that this Agreement, and all of their obligations
hereunder, are contingent and expressly conditioned upon an order from the Court
that this settlement is reasonable and in good faith under and pursuant to
California Code of Civil Procedure section 877.6 (hereinafter "Good Faith
Settlement Determination"). In the event that the Court refuses to make a Good
Faith Settlement Determination, then this Agreement, and all the Parties'
obligations hereunder, shall be null and void.

<PAGE>


         to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release, which if
         known by him must have materially affected his settlement with the
         debtor.

Parties nonetheless expressly acknowledge that they are waiving the protections
of section 1542 and of any comparable statutory or common law provision of any
other jurisdiction.

being released by this Agreement.
