Adrian Kowalewski

Tom Casey, who joined American Apparel in October 2010 to help the ailing company recover its financial standing, has resigned from his role as acting president just two months shy of his 15-month contract. He's the third major name to jump ship in the past two months.

New York City -- Former American Apparel CFO Adrian Kowalewski resigned as executive VP corporate strategy, according to a regulatory filing with the Securities & Exchange Commission this morning, Women’s Wear Daily reported. Kowalewski entered into a separation agreement, in which he will receive an unpaid base salary through the Oct. 7 separation date, any unreimbursed expenses and vesting of the 1,066,666 unvested shares of restricted stock previously awarded to him, the report said.
