CALLAWAY GOLF COMPANY 

AMENDED & RESTATED OFFICER EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT 

This Amended & Restated Officer Employment Agreement (“Agreement”) is entered into as of March 24, 2014 (the
“Effective Date”) by and between Callaway Golf Company, a Delaware corporation, (the “Company”) and Oliver G. Brewer, III (“Employee”). 

1. TERM. The Company hereby employs Employee and Employee hereby accepts employment pursuant to the terms and provisions of this
Agreement for the period commencing on the Effective Date and terminating April 30, 2015, unless this Agreement is earlier terminated as hereinafter provided. If Employee is still employed upon expiration of this Agreement, Employee’s
status shall be one of at-will employment. At all times during the term of this Agreement, Employee shall be considered an employee of the Company within the meaning of all federal, state and local laws and regulations, including, but not limited
to, laws and regulations governing unemployment insurance, workers’ compensation, industrial accident, labor and taxes. 
 2. TITLE;
POSITIONS. 
 (a) Employee shall serve as President and Chief Executive Officer of the Company. Employee’s duties shall be the
usual and customary duties of the offices in which Employee serves. Employee shall report to the Board of Directors. 
 (b) So long as
Employee continues to meet the standards required of a director, Employee shall continue to be nominated for election as a director at each subsequent annual meeting of shareholders during the term of Employee’s employment. Employee
acknowledges that he will not be deemed to be an independent director while serving as Chief Executive Officer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Employee’s employment is terminated for any reason whatsoever, Employee agrees to resign
immediately from the Board of Directors and from any and all positions Employee has as an officer or director of any of the Company’s direct or indirect subsidiaries and any other entity in which the Employee is serving as an officer or
director at the request of the Company. 
 3. SERVICES TO BE EXCLUSIVE. Employee agrees to devote Employee’s full productive
time and best efforts to the performance of Employee’s duties hereunder pursuant to the supervision and direction of the Company’s Board of Directors. Employee further agrees, as a condition to the performance by the Company of each and
all of its obligations hereunder, that so long as Employee is employed by the Company, Employee will not directly or indirectly render services of any nature to, otherwise become employed by, or otherwise participate or engage in any other business,
including serving as a member of the board of directors of any other public or private entities, without the Company’s prior written consent. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to preclude Employee from having outside personal investments
and involvement with appropriate community or charitable activities, or from devoting a reasonable amount of time to such matters, provided that this shall in no manner interfere with or derogate from Employee’s work for the Company or result
in a potential conflict of interest. 
 4. COMPENSATION. 

(a) Base Salary. In accordance with the Company’s usual review and pay practices, the Company agrees to pay Employee a base salary
at the rate of $750,000 per year (prorated for any partial years of employment), payable in equal installments on regularly scheduled Company pay dates. Employee’s base salary will be reviewed on an annual basis by the Board of Directors or
committee thereof. 
 (b) Annual Bonus. The Company shall provide Employee an opportunity to earn an annual bonus based upon
participation in the Company’s applicable bonus plan as it may or may not exist from time to time. Employee’s target bonus percentage is 100% of Employee’s annual base salary. Any annual bonus earned pursuant to an applicable bonus
plan shall be payable in the first quarter of the following year. 







 (c) Long-Term Incentives. The Company shall provide Employee an opportunity to participate
in the Company’s applicable long-term incentive programs as they may or may not exist from time to time. 
 5. EXPENSES AND
BENEFITS. 
 (a) Reasonable and Necessary Expenses. In addition to the compensation provided for in Section 4, the Company
shall reimburse Employee for all reasonable, customary and necessary expenses incurred in the performance of Employee’s duties hereunder. Employee shall first account for such expenses in accordance with the policies and procedures set by the
Company from time to time for reimbursement of such expenses. The amount, nature, and extent of such expenses shall always be subject to the control, supervision and direction of the Company and its Board of Directors, or its designee. 

(b) Paid Time Off. Employee shall accrue paid time off in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Company’s Paid Time Off
Program, as may be modified from time to time. Subject to the maximum accrual permitted under the Paid Time Off Program, Employee shall accrue paid time off at the rate of twenty-five (25) days per year. The time off may be taken any time
during the year subject to prior approval by the Company. The Company reserves the right to pay Employee for unused, accrued benefits in lieu of providing time off. 

(c) Insurance/Death Benefit. During Employee’s employment with the Company pursuant to this Agreement, the Company shall provide
the following: 
 (i) Employee may participate in the Company’s health insurance and disability insurance plans as the same may be
modified from time to time; 
 (ii) Subject to all applicable laws, and satisfaction of the conditions set forth below, Employee may be
eligible for an additional disability benefit if Employee becomes permanently disabled. Permanent Disability shall be defined as Employee’s failure to perform or being unable to perform all or substantially all of Employee’s duties under
this Agreement for a continuous period of six (6) months or more on account of any physical or mental disability, either as mutually agreed to by the parties or as reflected in the opinions of three (3) qualified physicians, one of which
has been selected by the Company, one of which has been selected by Employee, and one of which has been selected by the two other physicians jointly. In the event that Employee is declared permanently disabled (the “Permanent Disability
Date”), then Employee shall be entitled to (i) any compensation accrued and unpaid as of the Permanent Disability Date; (ii) a cash payment based on the amount of annual bonus the Employee would have received had the Employee
continued to perform services pursuant to this Agreement through the completion of the relevant performance period under the bonus plan and the evaluation of whether, and the degree to which, the performance criteria have been met (with any
individual objectives deemed to be achieved at “target”), and pro-rated to the Permanent Disability Date; (iii) a lump sum payment equal to six (6) months of Employee’s then current base salary at the same rate as in effect
on the Permanent Disability Date; (iv) the vesting of (A) the 300,000 restricted stock units granted to Employee effective as of Employee’s date of hire (the “Initial RSUs”) and (B) all other unvested long-term
incentive compensation awards held by Employee that would have vested had Employee continued to perform services pursuant to this Agreement for a period of eighteen (18) months from the Permanent Disability Date; (v) subject to
Section 7(g)(iii)(2) below, the payment of premiums owed for COBRA insurance benefits for a period of eighteen (18) months from the Permanent Disability Date; and (vi) no other payments. The payment of the benefits described in
(i) and (iii) of this subsection, as well as any vested time-based long-term incentive compensation awards described in (iv) of this sub-section shall be made as soon as administratively practicable following the Permanent Disability
Date, but in no event later than seventy (70) days after the Permanent Disability Date; and the payment of any benefits described in (ii) of this subsection, as well as any performance-based long-term incentive compensation awards
described in (iv) of this sub-section shall be paid after the completion of the relevant performance period and the evaluation of whether, and the degree to which, the performance criteria have been met. The payment of this benefit shall not
eliminate Employee’s right to permanent disability insurance benefits if the Employee so qualifies, and shall not eliminate the right of the Company to terminate Employee’s employment (e.g., a termination for substantial cause pursuant to
section 7(b)) without any further payment pursuant to this Agreement. Employee agrees that the Company shall be entitled to take as an offset against any amounts to be paid pursuant to this subsection any amounts received by Employee pursuant to
disability or other insurance or similar income sources provided by the Company; and

 (iii) Employee shall receive, if Employee is insurable under usual underwriting standards, term
life insurance coverage on Employee’s life, payable to whomever Employee directs, in an amount of $1,500,000 in coverage, provided that Employee completes the required health statement and application and that Employee’s physical condition
does not prevent Employee from qualifying for such insurance coverage under reasonable terms and conditions. 
 (iv) In the event of
Employee’s death, all Initial RSUs and all outstanding unvested service-based full value long-term incentive awards (e.g., restricted stock units and phantom stock units) held by Employee shall immediately vest. 

(d) Retirement. Employee shall be permitted to participate in the Company’s 401(k) retirement investment plan pursuant to the
terms of such plan, as the same may be modified from time to time, to the extent such plan is offered to other officers of the Company. 

(e) Financial Planning, Annual Executive Physical, and Other Perquisites. To the extent the Company provides financial, tax and estate
planning and related services, annual executive physicals, or any other perquisites and personal benefits to other officers generally from time to time, such services and perquisites shall be made available to Employee on the same terms and
conditions. 
 (f) Golf Expenses. Employee shall be entitled to reimbursement for golf expenses in accordance with the Company’s
golf reimbursement policy as the same may exist from time to time. 
 (g) Business Expense Allowance. Employee shall receive a gross
payment of $25,000 annually to cover any business expenses not otherwise reimbursable under the Company’s policies. 
 6. TAXES.
Employee acknowledges that Employee is responsible for all taxes, including imputed income taxes, related to Employee’s compensation and benefits except for those taxes for which the Company is obligated to pay under applicable law or
regulation. Employee agrees that the Company may withhold from Employee’s compensation any amounts that the Company is required to withhold under applicable law or regulation. 

7. TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT. 

(a) Termination by the Company Without Substantial Cause. Employee’s employment under this Agreement may be terminated by the
Company at any time without substantial cause. In the event of a termination by the Company without substantial cause, Employee shall be entitled to receive (i) any compensation accrued and unpaid as of the date of termination; (ii) a cash
payment based on the amount of annual bonus the Employee would have received had the Employee continued to perform services pursuant to this Agreement through the completion of the relevant performance period under the bonus plan and the evaluation
of whether, and the degree to which, the performance criteria have been met (with any individual objectives deemed to be achieved at “target”), pro-rated over the portion of the year actually employed; and (iii) the vesting of
(A) all Initial RSUs and (B) all other unvested long-term incentive compensation awards (e.g. SARs, stock options, and other long-term equity-based incentive awards), held by Employee that would have vested had Employee continued to
perform services pursuant to this Agreement for a period of eighteen (18) months from the date of termination; provided that any unvested long-term incentive compensation awards that are subject to performance-based vesting will vest only if,
and to the degree that, the performance goals are satisfied. The payment of the benefits described in (i) of this sub-section, as well as any vested time-based long-term incentive compensation awards described in (iii) of this sub-section,
shall be made as soon as administratively practicable following the date of termination; and the payment of any benefits described in (ii) of this subsection, as well as any performance-based long-term incentive compensation awards described in
(iii) of this sub-section shall be paid after the completion of the relevant performance period and the evaluation of whether, and the degree to which, the performance criteria have been met. In addition to the foregoing and subject to the
provisions thereof, Employee shall be eligible to receive Special Severance as described in subsection 7(g) and Incentive Payments as described in subsection 7(h).

 (b) Termination by the Company for Substantial Cause or by Employee Without Good Reason.
Employee’s employment under this Agreement may be terminated immediately and at any time by the Company for substantial cause or by Employee without good reason. In the event of such a termination, Employee shall be entitled to receive
(i) any compensation accrued and unpaid as of the date of termination; and (ii) no other severance. “Substantial cause” shall mean Employee’s (1) failure to substantially perform Employee’s duties;
(2) material breach of this Agreement; (3) intentional misconduct, including but not limited to, use or possession of illegal drugs during work and/or any other action that is damaging or detrimental in a significant manner to the Company;
(4) conviction of, or plea of guilty or nolo contendere to, a felony; or (5) failure to cooperate with, or any attempt to obstruct or improperly influence, any investigation authorized by the Board of Directors or any governmental
or regulatory agency.  
 (c) Termination by Employee for Good Reason or Non-Renewal. 

(i) Employee’s employment under this Agreement may be terminated immediately by Employee for good reason at any time. In the event of a
termination by Employee for good reason, Employee shall be entitled to receive (1) any compensation accrued and unpaid as of the date of termination; (2) a cash payment based on the amount of annual bonus the Employee would have received
had the Employee continued to perform services pursuant to this Agreement through the completion of the relevant performance period under the bonus plan and the evaluation of whether, and the degree to which, the performance criteria have been met
(with any individual objectives deemed to be achieved at “target”), pro-rated over the portion of the year actually employed; and (3) the vesting of all (A) Initial RSUs and (B) all other unvested long-term incentive
compensation awards (e.g. SARs, stock options, and other long-term equity-based incentive awards) held by Employee that would have vested had Employee continued to perform services pursuant to this Agreement for a period of eighteen (18) months
from the date of termination; provided that any unvested long-term incentive compensation awards that are subject to performance-based vesting will vest only if, and to the degree that, the performance goals are satisfied. The payment of the
benefits described in (1) of this sub-section, as well as any vested time-based long-term incentive compensation awards described in (3) of this sub-section, shall be made as soon as administratively practicable following the date of
termination; and the payment of any benefits described in (2) of this subsection, as well as any performance-based long-term incentive compensation awards described in (3) of this sub-section, shall be paid after the completion of the
relevant performance period and the evaluation of whether, and the degree to which, the performance criteria have been met. In addition to the foregoing and subject to the provisions thereof, Employee shall be eligible to receive Special Severance
as described in subsection 7(g) and Incentive Payments as described in subsection 7(h). “Good Reason” shall mean (X) a material breach of this Agreement by the Company, (Y) any material diminishment in the title, position,
duties, responsibilities or status that Employee had with the Company, as a publicly traded entity, immediately prior to such diminishment, or (Z) any requirement that Employee relocate or any assignment to Employee of duties that would make it
unreasonably difficult for Employee to maintain the principal residence Employee had immediately prior to such requirement or assignment. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no basis for a termination for Good Reason will be deemed to exist
(a) unless Employee notifies the Company in writing, within ninety (90) days after the Employee knows that Employee is entitled to terminate for Good Reason, that he intends to terminate his employment no earlier than thirty (30) days
after providing such notice; (b) the Company does not cure such condition within thirty (30) days following its receipt of such notice or states unequivocally in writing that it does not intend to attempt to cure such condition; and
(c) the Employee resigns from employment prior to expiration of ninety (90) days after the end of the period described in (b) above.

(ii) Should this Agreement expire pursuant to its terms and Employee becomes an at-will employee pursuant to Section 1, and provided
further that the Company has not offered Employee a new employment agreement on substantially the same or better terms and has not otherwise terminated Employee’s employment for substantial cause or due to permanent disability, then Employee
shall have the option for forty-five (45) days following the expiration of this Agreement to terminate Employee’s employment due to the Company’s non-renewal. In the event of a termination of employment by Employee for non-renewal,
Employee shall be entitled to receive (1) any compensation accrued and unpaid as of the date of termination; (2) a cash payment based on the amount of annual bonus the Employee would have received had the Employee continued to perform
services pursuant to this Agreement through the completion of the relevant performance period under the bonus plan and the evaluation of whether, and the degree to which, the performance criteria have been met (with any individual objectives deemed
to be achieved at “target”), pro-rated over the portion of the year actually employed; and (3) the vesting of (A) all Initial RSUs and (B) all 

  

					
		  	4	  	Oliver G. Brewer, III









 
other unvested long-term incentive compensation awards (e.g. SARs, stock options, and other long-term equity-based incentive awards) held by Employee that would have vested had Employee continued
to perform services pursuant to this Agreement for a period of eighteen (18) months from the date of termination; provided that any unvested long-term incentive compensation awards that are subject to performance-based vesting will vest only
if, and to the degree that, the performance goals are satisfied. The payment of the benefits described in (1) of this sub-section, as well as any vested time-based long-term incentive compensation awards described in (3) of this
sub-section, shall be made as soon as administratively practicable following the date of termination; and the payment of any benefits described in (2) of this subsection, as well as any performance-based long-term incentive compensation awards
described in (3) of this sub-section, shall be paid after the completion of the relevant performance period and the evaluation of whether, and the degree to which, the performance criteria have been met. In addition to the foregoing and subject
to the provisions thereof, Employee shall be eligible to receive Special Severance as described in subsection 7(g) and Incentive Payments as described in subsection 7(h). It is expressly understood that if Employee and the Company enter into a new
written employment agreement, or if the Company offers Employee a new written employment agreement on substantially the same or better terms, then Employee shall have no right or option to terminate employment for non-renewal of this Agreement. It
is further understood that any termination of Employee’s employment by the Company during any such 45 day period for reasons other than substantial cause or permanent disability shall be deemed to be a termination by Employee for non-renewal
pursuant to this section. 
 (d) Reserved. 

(e) Termination by Mutual Agreement of the Parties. Employee’s employment pursuant to this Agreement may be terminated at any time
upon the mutual agreement in writing of the parties. Any such termination of employment shall have the consequences specified in such agreement. 

(f) Pre-Termination Rights. The Company shall have the right, at its option, to require Employee to vacate Employee’s office or
otherwise remain off the Company’s premises and to cease any and all activities on the Company’s behalf without such action constituting a termination of employment or a breach of this Agreement. 

(g) Special Severance.  

(i) Amount in Event of a Termination Pursuant to Section 7(a) or 7(c). In the event of a termination pursuant to Sections 7(a) or
7(c) of this Agreement, Special Severance shall consist of a total amount equal to 0.75 times the sum of Employee’s most recent annual base salary and annual target bonus, payable in equal installments on the same pay schedule as in effect at
the time of termination over a period of eighteen (18) months from the date of termination. 
 (ii) Amount in the Event of a
Termination Pursuant to Section 9. In the event of a termination pursuant to Section 9 of this Agreement, then Special Severance shall consist of a total amount equal to 1.00 times the sum of the Employee’s most recent annual base
salary and annual target bonus, payable in equal installments on the same pay schedule as in effect at the time of termination over a period of twenty-four (24) months from the date of termination. All such Special Severance shall be subject to
the provisions of Section 9(c). 
 (iii) Additional Special Severance. 

(1) In addition to the Special Severance referenced above, Employee shall be entitled to the payment of premiums owed for COBRA and/or
CalCOBRA insurance benefits and the continuation of the financial, tax and estate planning services (on the then-existing terms and conditions) through the period during which Employee is receiving Special Severance. In addition, the Company shall
offer to provide, at Company expense, up to one (1) year of outplacement services through a professional outplacement firm of the Company’s choosing. 

(2) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company determines, in its sole discretion, that the Company cannot provide COBRA premium benefits
under this Agreement without potentially incurring financial costs or penalties under applicable law (including, without limitation, Section 

  

					
		  	5	  	Oliver G. Brewer, III









 
2716 of the Public Health Service Act), the Company shall, in lieu thereof, pay Employee a taxable cash amount, which payment shall be made if Employee has elected health care continuation
coverage (the “Health Care Benefit Payment”). If applicable, the Health Care Benefit Payment shall be paid in a single lump sum as soon as administratively practicable following the date of termination, but in no event later than seventy
(70) days after the date of termination of employment or the Permanent Disability Date, as applicable. The Health Care Benefit Payment shall be equal to the amount that the Company would have otherwise paid for COBRA insurance premiums (at the
level of healthcare benefits Employee and Employee’s dependents are enrolled in as of the termination date) calculated based on the premium for the first month of coverage. 

(iv) Conditions on Receiving Special Severance and/or Additional Special Severance. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary, it
is expressly understood that any obligation of the Company to pay Special Severance and/or Additional Special Severance pursuant to this Agreement shall be subject to Employee’s continued compliance with the terms and conditions of
Sections 8 and 11; Employee’s continued forbearance from directly, indirectly or in any other way, disparaging the Company, its officers or employees, vendors, customers, products or activities, or otherwise interfering with the
Company’s press, public and media relations; and Employee’s execution, prior to receiving any Special Severance or Additional Special Severance, of an effective release in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B within the time period set
forth therein (but in no event later than sixty (60) days after the date of termination of employment). Additionally, none of the Special Severance or Additional Special Severance benefits will be paid or otherwise delivered prior to the
effective date of the release, so that amounts otherwise payable prior to the release effective date will accrue and be paid as soon as administratively practicable, except as required by section 7(k) below. 

(h) Incentive Payments.  

(i) Amount in the Event of a Termination Pursuant to Sections 7(a) or 7(c). In the event of a termination pursuant to Sections 7(a) or
7(c) of this Agreement, Employee shall be offered the opportunity to receive Incentive Payments in a total amount equal to 0.75 times the sum of Employee’s most recent annual base salary and target bonus, payable in equal installments on the
same pay schedule in effect at the time of termination over a period of eighteen (18) months from the date of termination. 
 (ii)
Amount in the Event of a Termination Pursuant to Section 9. In the event of a termination pursuant to Section 9 of this Agreement, Employee shall be offered the opportunity to receive Incentive Payments in a total amount equal to
1.00 times the sum of Employee’s most recent annual base salary and annual target bonus, payable in equal installments on the same pay schedule as in effect at the time of termination over a period of twenty-four (24) months from the date
of termination. All such Incentive Payments shall be subject to the provisions of Section 9(c). 
 (iii) Terms and Conditions for
Incentive Payments. Employee may receive Incentive Payments so long as Employee chooses not to engage (whether as an owner, employee, agent, consultant, or in any other capacity) in any business or venture that competes with the business of the
Company or any of its affiliates. If Employee chooses to engage in such activities, then the Company shall have no obligation to make further Incentive Payments commencing upon the date which Employee chooses to do so. 

(iv) Sole Consideration. Employee and the Company agree and acknowledge that the sole and exclusive consideration for the Incentive
Payments is Employee’s forbearance as described in subsection 7(h)(iii) above. In the event that subsection 7(h)(iii) is deemed unenforceable or invalid for any reason, then the Company will have no obligation to make Incentive Payments for the
period of time during which it has been deemed unenforceable or invalid. The obligations and duties of this subsection 7(h) shall be separate and distinct from the other obligations and duties set forth in this Agreement, and any finding of
invalidity or unenforceability of this subsection 7(h) shall have no effect upon the validity or invalidity of the other provisions of this Agreement. 

(i) Treatment of Special Severance, Additional Special Severance and Incentive Payments. Any Special Severance, Additional Special
Severance and Incentive Payments shall be subject to usual and customary employee payroll practices and all applicable withholding requirements.

 (j) Other. Except for the amounts specifically provided pursuant to this Section 7,
Employee shall not be entitled to any further compensation, bonus, damages, restitution, relocation benefits, or other severance benefits upon termination of employment. The amounts payable to Employee pursuant to these Sections shall not be treated
as damages, but as compensation to which Employee may be entitled by reason of termination of employment under the applicable circumstances. The Company shall not be entitled to set off against the amounts payable to Employee pursuant to this
Section 7 any amounts earned by Employee in other employment after termination of Employee’s employment with the Company pursuant to this Agreement, or any amounts which might have been earned by Employee in other employment had Employee
sought such other employment. The provisions of this Section 7 shall not limit Employee’s rights under or pursuant to any other agreement or understanding with the Company regarding any pension, profit sharing, insurance or other employee
benefit plan of the Company to which Employee is entitled pursuant to the terms of such plan. 
 (k) Compliance with
Section 409A. Each installment of severance benefits is a separate “payment” for purposes of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 and the regulations governing Section 409A (collectively “Section
409A”), and the severance benefits are intended to satisfy the exemptions under Section 409A. It is intended that if Employee is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A at the time of a separation from
service, then, to the extent necessary, the severance benefits will not be paid until at least six (6) months after separation from service.

(l) Forfeiture. 
 (i) If
the Company is required to prepare an accounting restatement due to the material noncompliance of the Company, as a result of the intentional misconduct or gross negligence of the Employee, with any financial reporting requirement under the United
States securities laws, then the Employee shall forfeit and reimburse the Company for all of the following: (i) any bonus or incentive compensation paid based upon such erroneously stated financial information, (ii) any bonus or incentive
compensation or equity compensation received by Employee during the twelve (12) month period following the earlier of the first public issuance or filing with the SEC of the financial document embodying the financial reporting requirement,
(iii) any profits realized from the sale of Company securities during that same twelve (12) month period, (iv) if Employee is terminated or has been terminated, the right to receive Special Severance and Incentive Payments, and
(v) if Employee is terminated or has been terminated, any unvested and/or unexercised long-term incentive compensation awards. 
 (ii)
Employee is one of the persons subject to automatic forfeiture under Section 304 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. If the Company is required to prepare an accounting restatement due to the material noncompliance of the Company, as a result of
misconduct (within the meaning of said Section 304 but other than as a result of Employee’s intentional misconduct or gross negligence, which is governed by the preceding subsection), with any financial reporting requirement under the
United States securities laws, then the Employee shall forfeit and reimburse the Company for all of the following: (i) any bonus or incentive compensation or equity compensation received by Employee during the twelve (12) month period
following the earlier of the first public issuance or filing with the SEC of the financial document embodying the financial reporting requirement and (ii) any profits realized from the sale of Company securities during that same twelve
(12) month period. 
 (iii) Employee acknowledges that Section 954 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection
Act, among other things, requires the United States Securities and Exchange Commission to direct the national securities exchanges to prohibit the continued listing of the securities of an issuer unless the issuer develops and implements a policy
providing, among other things, for the recovery of certain erroneously awarded compensation. Upon the Company’s adoption of such a policy, Employee agrees that this Agreement shall be automatically amended without any further consideration to
incorporate the recovery provisions set forth in the policy. Upon the request of the Company, Employee agrees without further consideration to execute an amendment evidencing the incorporation of said provisions into this Agreement. 

(iv) No forfeiture or recovery of compensation under such this sub-section (l) will be an event giving rise to a right for Employee to
resign for Good Reason.

to any person other than the Company or persons with respect to whom the Company has given its written consent, unless Employee is compelled to make disclosure by governmental process. In the event Employee believes that Employee is legally required
to disclose any Trade Secrets or Confidential Information, Employee shall give reasonable notice to the Company prior to disclosing such information and shall assist the Company in taking such legally permissible steps as are reasonable and
necessary to protect the Trade Secrets or Confidential Information, including, but not limited to execution by the receiving party of a non-disclosure agreement in a form acceptable to the Company. 

(iii) Employee agrees to execute such secrecy, non-disclosure, patent, trademark, copyright and other proprietary rights agreements, if any,

anyone else, while employed by the Company and/or within twelve (12) months of the termination of employment. Employee shall disclose all Designs, Inventions and Innovations to the Company, even if Employee does not believe that Employee is
required under this Agreement, or pursuant to California Labor Code Section 2870, to assign Employee’s interest in such Design, Invention or Innovation to the Company. If the Company and Employee disagree as to whether or not a Design,
Invention or Innovation is included within the terms of this Agreement, it will be the responsibility of Employee to prove that it is not included. 

(iv) Pursuant to California Labor Code Section 2870, the obligation to assign as provided in this Agreement does not apply to any
Design, Invention or Innovation to the extent such obligation would conflict with any state or federal law. The obligation to assign as provided in this Agreement does not apply to any Design, Invention or Innovation that Employee developed entirely
on Employee’s own time without using the Company’s equipment, supplies, facilities or Trade Secrets and Confidential Information, except those Designs, Inventions or Innovations that either relate at the time of conception or reduction to
practice to the Company’s and/or its affiliates’ business, or actual or demonstrably anticipated research of the Company and/or its affiliates; or result from any work performed by Employee for the Company and/or its affiliates. 

(v) Employee agrees that any Design, Invention and/or Innovation which is required under the provisions of this Agreement to be assigned to
the Company shall be the sole and exclusive property of the Company. Upon the Company’s request, at no expense to Employee, Employee shall execute any and all proper applications for patents, copyrights and/or trademarks, assignments to the
Company, and all other applicable documents, and will give testimony when and where requested to perfect the title and/or patents (both within and without the United States) in all Designs, Inventions and Innovations belonging to the Company. 

(vi) The provisions of this subsection 8(c) shall survive the termination or expiration of this Agreement, and shall be binding upon Employee
in perpetuity. 
 (d) Competing Business. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Employee agrees that, while employed by the
Company, Employee will not, directly or indirectly (whether as employee, agent, consultant, holder of a beneficial interest, creditor, or in any other capacity), engage in any business or venture which conflicts with Employee’s duties under
this Agreement, including services that are directly or indirectly in competition with the business of the Company or any of its affiliates, or have any interest in any person, firm, corporation, or venture which engages directly or indirectly in
competition with the business of the Company or any of its affiliates. For purposes of this section, the ownership of interests in a broadly based mutual fund shall not constitute ownership of the stocks held by the fund. 

(e) Other Employees. Except as may be required in the performance of Employee’s duties hereunder, Employee shall not cause or
induce, or attempt to cause or induce, any person now or hereafter employed by the Company or any of its affiliates to terminate such employment. This obligation shall remain in effect while Employee is employed by the Company and for a period of
one (1) year thereafter. 
 (f) Suppliers. While employed by the Company, and for one (1) year thereafter, Employee shall
not cause or induce, or attempt to cause or induce, any person or firm supplying goods, services or credit to the Company or any of its affiliates to diminish or cease furnishing such goods, services or credit. 

(g) Conflict of Interest. While employed by the Company, Employee shall comply with all Company policies regarding actual or apparent
conflicts of interest with respect to Employee’s duties and obligations to the Company.

 (h) Non-Disparagement. While employed by the Company, and for one (1) year
thereafter, Employee shall not in any way undertake to harm, injure or disparage the Company, its officers, directors, employees, agents, affiliates, vendors, products, or customers, or their successors, or in any other way exhibit an attitude of
hostility toward them. 
 (i) Surrender of Equipment, Books and Records. Employee understands and agrees that all equipment, books,
records, customer lists and documents connected with the business of the Company and/or its affiliates are the property of and belong to the Company. Under no circumstances shall Employee remove from the Company’s facilities any of the
Company’s and/or its affiliates’ equipment, books, records, documents, lists or any copies of the same without the Company’s permission, nor shall Employee make any copies of the Company’s and/or its affiliates’ books,
records, documents or lists for use outside the Company’s office except as specifically authorized by the Company. Employee shall return to the Company and/or its affiliates all equipment, books, records, documents and customer lists belonging
to the Company and/or its affiliates upon termination of Employee’s employment with the Company. 
 9. RIGHTS UPON A CHANGE IN
CONTROL. 
 (a) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if upon or at any time during the term of this Agreement
there is a Termination Event (as defined below) that occurs within one (1) year following any Change in Control (as defined in Exhibit A), Employee shall be treated as if Employee had been terminated by the Company without substantial cause
pursuant to Section 7(a). 
 (b) A “Termination Event” shall mean the occurrence of any one or more of the following, and in
the absence of Employee’s death, or any of the factors enumerated in Section 7(b) providing for termination by the Company for substantial cause: 

(i) the termination or material breach of this Agreement by the Company; 

(ii) a failure by the Company to obtain the assumption of this Agreement by any successor to the Company or any assignee of all or
substantially all of the Company’s assets or business; 
 (iii) any material diminishment in the title, position, duties,
responsibilities or status that Employee had with the Company, as a publicly traded entity, immediately prior to the Change in Control; 

(iv) any reduction, limitation or failure to pay or provide any of the compensation, reimbursable expenses, long-term incentive compensation
awards, incentive programs, or other benefits or perquisites provided to Employee under the terms of this Agreement or any other agreement or understanding between the Company and Employee, or pursuant to the Company’s policies and past
practices as of the date immediately prior to the Change in Control; or 
 (v) any requirement that Employee relocate or any assignment to
Employee of duties that would make it unreasonably difficult for Employee to maintain the principal residence Employee had immediately prior to the Change in Control. 

(c) To the extent that any or all of the payments and benefits provided for in this Agreement and pursuant to any other agreements with
Employee constitute “parachute payments” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”) and, but for this Section 9, would be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the
Code, then the aggregate amount of such payments and benefits shall be reduced by the minimum amounts necessary to equal one dollar less than the amount which would result in such payments and benefits being subject to such excise tax. The
reduction, unless the employee elects otherwise, shall be in such order that provides employee with the greatest after-tax amount possible. All determinations required to be made under this Section 9, including whether a payment would result in
a parachute payment and the assumptions to be utilized in arriving at such determination, shall be made by a nationally recognized accounting firm agreed to by the Company and Employee. The Company shall pay the cost of the accounting firm, and the
accounting firm shall provide detailed supporting calculations both to the Company and the Employee. The determination of the accounting firm shall be final and binding upon the Company and the Employee, except that if, as a result of subsequent
events or conditions (including 

  

					
		  	10	  	Oliver G. Brewer, III









 
a subsequent payment or the absence of a subsequent payment or a determination by the Internal Revenue Service or applicable court), it is determined that the excess parachute payments, excise
tax or any reduction in the amount of payments and benefits, is or should be other than as determined initially, an appropriate adjustment shall be made, as applicable, to reflect the final determination. 

10. MISCELLANEOUS. 
 (a)
Assignment. This Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and the successors and assigns of the Company. Employee shall have no right to assign Employee’s rights, benefits, duties, obligations
or other interests in this Agreement, it being understood that this Agreement is personal to Employee. 
 (b) Entire Understanding.
This Agreement sets forth the entire understanding of the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof, and no other representations, warranties or agreements whatsoever as to that subject matter have been made by Employee or the
Company. This Agreement shall not be modified, amended or terminated except by another instrument in writing executed by the parties hereto. As of the Effective Date, except as otherwise explicitly provided herein, this Agreement replaces and
supersedes any and all prior understandings or agreements between Employee and the Company regarding employment. 
 (c) Notices. Any
notice, request, demand, or other communication required or permitted hereunder, shall be deemed properly given when actually received or within five (5) days of mailing by certified or registered mail, postage prepaid, to Employee at the
address currently on file with the Company, and to the Company at: 
  

			
	Company:	  	Callaway Golf Company
		  	2180 Rutherford Road
		  	Carlsbad, California 92008
		  	Attn: Chairman of the Board

 or to such other address as Employee or the Company may from time to time furnish, in writing, to the other. 

(d) Headings. The headings of the several sections and paragraphs of this Agreement are inserted solely for the convenience of
reference and are not a part of and are not intended to govern, limit or aid in the construction of any term or provision hereof. 
 (e)
Waiver. Failure of either party at any time to require performance by the other of any provision of this Agreement shall in no way affect that party’s rights thereafter to enforce the same, nor shall the waiver by either party of any
breach of any provision hereof be held to be a waiver of any succeeding breach of any provision or a waiver of the provision itself. 
 (f)
Applicable Law. This Agreement shall constitute a contract under the internal laws of the State of California and shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of said state as to both interpretation and performance. 

(g) Severability. In the event any provision or provisions of this Agreement is or are held invalid, the remaining provisions of this
Agreement shall not be affected thereby. 
 (h) Advertising Waiver. Employee agrees to permit the Company and/or its affiliates, and
persons or other organizations authorized by the Company and/or its affiliates, to use, publish and distribute advertising or sales promotional literature concerning the products of the Company and/or its affiliates, or the machinery and equipment
used in the manufacture thereof, in which Employee’s name and/or pictures of Employee taken in the course of Employee’s provision of services to the Company and/or its affiliates, appear. Employee hereby waives and releases any claim or
right Employee may otherwise have arising out of such use, publication or distribution. 
 (i) Counterparts. This Agreement may be
executed in one or more counterparts which, when fully executed by the parties, shall be treated as one agreement.

 11. IRREVOCABLE ARBITRATION OF DISPUTES. 

(a) Employee and the Company agree that any dispute, controversy or claim arising hereunder or in any way related to this Agreement, its
interpretation, enforceability, or applicability, or relating to Employee’s employment, or the termination thereof, that cannot be resolved by mutual agreement of the parties shall be submitted to binding arbitration. This includes, but is not
limited to, alleged violations of federal, state and/or local statutes, claims based on any purported breach of duty arising in contract or tort, including breach of contract, breach of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing, violation of
public policy, violation of any statutory, contractual or common law rights, but excluding workers’ compensation, unemployment matters, or any matter falling within the jurisdiction of the state Labor Commissioner. The parties agree that
arbitration is the parties’ only recourse for such claims and hereby waive the right to pursue such claims in any other forum, unless otherwise provided by law. Any court action involving a dispute which is not subject to arbitration shall be
stayed pending arbitration of arbitrable disputes. 
 (b) Employee and the Company agree that the arbitrator shall have the authority
to issue provisional relief. Employee and the Company further agree that each has the right, pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure section 1281.8, to apply to a court for a provisional remedy in connection with an arbitrable dispute so as
to prevent the arbitration from being rendered ineffective. 
 (c) Any demand for arbitration shall be in writing and must be
communicated to the other party prior to the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations. 
 (d) The arbitration shall be
administered by JAMS pursuant to its Employment Arbitration Rules and Procedures. The arbitration shall be conducted in San Diego by a former or retired judge or attorney with at least 10 years experience in employment-related disputes, or a
non-attorney with like experience in the area of dispute, who shall have the power to hear motions, control discovery, conduct hearings and otherwise do all that is necessary to resolve the matter. The parties must mutually agree on the arbitrator.
If the parties cannot agree on the arbitrator after their best efforts, an arbitrator will be selected from JAMS pursuant to its Employment Arbitration Rules and Procedures. The Company shall pay the costs of the arbitrator’s fees. 

(e) The arbitration will be decided upon a written decision of the arbitrator stating the essential findings and conclusions upon which the
award is based. The arbitrator shall have the authority to award damages, if any, to the extent that they are available under applicable law(s). The arbitration award shall be final and binding, and may be entered as a judgment in any court having
competent jurisdiction. Either party may seek review pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure section 1286, et seq. 
 (f) It
is expressly understood that the parties have chosen arbitration to avoid the burdens, costs and publicity of a court proceeding, and the arbitrator is expected to handle all aspects of the matter, including discovery and any hearings, in such a way
as to minimize the expense, time, burden and publicity of the process, while assuring a fair and just result. In particular, the parties expect that the arbitrator will limit discovery by controlling the amount of discovery that may be taken (e.g.,
the number of depositions or interrogatories) and by restricting the scope of discovery only to those matters clearly relevant to the dispute. However, at a minimum, each party will be entitled to at least one (1) deposition and shall have
access to essential documents and witnesses as determined by the arbitrator. 
 (g) The provisions of this Section shall survive the
expiration or termination of the Agreement, and shall be binding upon the parties. 
 THE PARTIES HAVE READ SECTION 11 AND IRREVOCABLY AGREE TO
ARBITRATE ANY DISPUTE IDENTIFIED ABOVE.

5% or more of the combined voting power of all securities of the Company, immediately prior to such acquisition or the first acquisition in such series of acquisitions) continuing to represent, either by remaining outstanding or by being converted

transactions involving such a reorganization or merger or consolidation), or

 EXHIBIT B 

RELEASE OF CLAIMS – GENERAL RELEASE 

This Release of Claims – General Release (“Release”) is effective as of the date provided for in Section 10 below, and is
made by and between                  (“Employee”), pursuant to the Officer Employment Agreement (the “Agreement”) to which this document is
attached, and Callaway Golf Company (the “Company”), a Delaware corporation. This Release is entered into in light of the fact that Employee’s employment with the Company will terminate and Employee will be eligible to receive
Special Severance pursuant to Section 7 of the Agreement. 
 1. Consideration. In consideration for the payment of Special
Severance, Employee agrees to the terms and provisions set forth in this Release. 
 2. Release. 

(a) Employee hereby irrevocably and unconditionally releases and forever discharges the Company, its predecessors, successors, subsidiaries,
affiliates and benefit plans, and each and every past, present and future officer, director, employee, representative and attorney of the Company, its, predecessors, successors, subsidiaries, affiliates and benefit plans, and their successors and
assigns (collectively referred to herein as the “Releasees”), from any, every, and all charges, complaints, claims, causes of action, and lawsuits of any kind whatsoever, including, to the extent permitted under the law, all claims which
Employee has against the Releasees, or any of them, arising from or in any way related to circumstances or events arising out of Employee’s employment by the Company, including, but not limited to, harassment, discrimination, retaliation,
failure to progressively discipline Employee, termination of employment, violation of state and/or federal wage and hour laws, violations of any notice requirement, violations of the California Labor Code, or breach of any employment agreement,
together with any and all other claims Employee now has or may have against the Releasees through and including Employee’s date of termination from the Company, provided, however, that Employee does not waive or release the right to enforce the
Agreement, the right to enforce any stock option, restricted stock, retirement, welfare or other benefit plan, agreement or arrangement, or any rights to indemnification or reimbursement, whether pursuant to charter and by-laws of the Company or its
affiliates, applicable state laws, D&O insurance policies, or otherwise. EMPLOYEE ALSO SPECIFICALLY AGREES AND ACKNOWLEDGES THAT EMPLOYEE IS WAIVING ANY RIGHT TO RECOVERY AGAINST RELEASEES BASED ON STATE OR FEDERAL AGE, SEX, PREGNANCY, RACE,
COLOR, NATIONAL ORIGIN, MARITAL STATUS, RELIGION, VETERAN STATUS, DISABILITY, SEXUAL ORIENTATION, MEDICAL CONDITION OR OTHER ANTI-DISCRIMINATION LAWS, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, TITLE VII, THE AMERICANS WITH DISABILITIES ACT, THE CALIFORNIA FAIR
HOUSING AND EMPLOYMENT ACT, THE AGE DISCRIMINATION IN EMPLOYMENT ACT OF 1967, THE FAMILY MEDICAL RIGHTS ACT, THE CALIFORNIA FAMILY RIGHTS ACT OR BASED ON THE EMPLOYEE RETIREMENT INCOME SECURITY ACT OR THE WORKER ADJUSTMENT AND RETRAINING
NOTIFICATION ACT, ALL AS AMENDED, WHETHER SUCH CLAIM BE BASED UPON AN ACTION FILED BY EMPLOYEE OR A GOVERNMENTAL AGENCY. 
 (b) Employee
understands that rights or claims under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act of 1967 (29 U.S.C. § 621, et seq.) that may arise after the date this Release is executed are not waived. Nothing in this Release shall be construed to
prohibit Employee from exercising Employee’s right to file a charge with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission or from participating in any investigation or proceeding conducted by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. 

(c) Employee understands and agrees that if Employee files such a charge, the Company has the right to raise the defense that the charge is
barred by this Release. 
 3. Employee also waives all rights under section 1542 of the Civil Code of the State of California.
Section 1542 provides as follows: 
 A general release does not extend to claims which the creditor does not know or suspect 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.

this Release, its interpretation, enforceability, or applicability, or relating to Employee’s employment, or the termination thereof, that cannot be resolved by mutual agreement of the parties shall be submitted to binding arbitration. This

dealing, violation of public policy, violation of any statutory, contractual or common law rights, but excluding workers’ compensation, unemployment matters, or any matter falling within the jurisdiction of the state Labor Commissioner. The

shall have the authority to issue provisional relief. Employee and the Company further agree that each has the right, pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure section 1281.8, to apply to a court for a provisional remedy in connection with an
arbitrable dispute so as to prevent the arbitration from being rendered ineffective. 
 (c) Any demand for arbitration shall be in
writing and must be communicated to the other party prior to the expiration of the applicable statute of limitations. 
 (d) The
arbitration shall be administered by JAMS pursuant to its Employment Arbitration Rules and Procedures. The arbitration shall be conducted in San Diego by a former or retired judge or attorney with at least 10 years experience in employment-related
disputes, or a non-attorney with like experience in the area of dispute, who shall have the power to hear motions, control discovery, conduct hearings and otherwise do all that is necessary to resolve the matter. The parties must mutually agree on
the arbitrator. If the parties cannot agree on the arbitrator after their best efforts, an arbitrator will be selected from JAMS pursuant to its Employment Arbitration Rules and Procedures. The Company shall pay the costs of the arbitrator’s
fees.

upon which the award is based. The arbitrator shall have the authority to award damages, if any, to the extent that they are available under applicable law(s). The arbitration award shall be final and binding, and may be entered as a judgment in any
court having competent jurisdiction. Either party may seek review pursuant to California Code of Civil Procedure section 1286, et seq.
