                     EXECUTIVE OFFICER EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

         This Executive Officer Employment Agreement ("Agreement") is entered
effective November 6, 2002 by and between CALLAWAY GOLF COMPANY, a Delaware
corporation (the "Company"), and PATRICE HUTIN ("Employee").

         A.       Callaway Golf Europe Ltd., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the
Company, and Employee are parties to that certain Director's Service Agreement
entered into as of September 14, 2000, as subsequently amended. The Company and
Employee desire to supersede and replace the Director's Service Agreement in the
manner set forth herein. The Director's Service Agreement shall no longer be of
any force or effect. To the extent there is any conflict between the Director's
Service Agreement and this Agreement, this Agreement shall control and all
agreements shall be construed so as to give the maximum force and effect to the
provisions of this Agreement.

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing and other
consideration, the value and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the
Company and Employee hereby agree as follows:

         1.       TERM.

                  (a)      The Company hereby employs Employee and Employee
hereby accepts employment pursuant to the terms and provisions of this Agreement
for the period commencing November 6, 2002 and terminating December 31, 2003.

                  (b)      On December 31, 2003, and on each December 31
thereafter (the "Extension Dates"), the expiration date of this Agreement shall
be automatically extended one year, through December 31 of the following year,
so long as (a) this Agreement is otherwise in full force and effect, (b)
Employee is still employed by the Company pursuant to this Agreement, (c)
Employee is not otherwise in breach of this Agreement, and (d) neither the
Company nor Employee has given notice as provided in Section 1(c) of this
Agreement.

                  (c)      At any time prior to an Extension Date, either
Employee or the Company may give written notice to the other ("Notice") that the
next automatic extension of the expiration date of this Agreement pursuant to
Section 1(b) shall be the final such automatic extension of the expiration date
of this Agreement. Thus, if either Employee or the Company gives Notice on or
before December 31, 2003, and all other conditions for automatic extension of
the expiration date of this Agreement pursuant to Section 1(b) exist, then on
December 31, 2003, the expiration date of this Agreement shall be extended
pursuant to Section 1(b) from December 31, 2003 to December 31, 2004, with this
Agreement expiring on that date (if not earlier terminated pursuant to its
terms) without any further automatic extensions.

                  (d)      Upon expiration of this Agreement, Employee's status
shall be one of at will employment.

         2.       SERVICES.

                  (a)      Employee shall serve as Executive Vice President,
Global Sales and Advertising, of the Company. Employee's duties shall be the
usual and customary duties of the offices in which Employee serves. Employee
shall report to such person as the Chief Executive Officer shall designate. The
Board of Directors and/or the Chief Executive Officer of the Company may change
employee's title, position and/or duties at any time.

                  (b)      Employee shall be required to comply with all
policies and procedures of the Company, as such shall be adopted, modified or
otherwise established by the Company from time to time.

<PAGE>

                  (c)      The Company and Employee agree that the services
being provided by Employee for the Company under the terms of this Agreement are
unique and intellectual in character and that Employee and Company are entering
into this Agreement so that the Company will have the exclusive benefit of those
services during the entire term of the Agreement and any extensions of the
Agreement.

         3.       SERVICES TO BE EXCLUSIVE. During the term hereof, Employee
agrees to devote his or her 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 and its Chief Executive Officer.
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 without the Company's prior written consent. Employee further
agrees to execute such secrecy, non-disclosure, patent, trademark, copyright and
other proprietary rights agreements, if any, as the Company may from time to
time reasonably require. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to preclude
Employee from having outside personal investments and involvement with
appropriate community activities, and 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.

         4.       COMPENSATION.

                  (a)      The Company agrees to pay Employee a base salary at
the rate of $450,000.00 per year, payable in equal increments in accordance with
the Company's current pay schedule.

                  (b)      The Company shall provide Employee an opportunity to
earn an annual bonus based upon participation in the Company's officer bonus
plan as it may or may not exist from time to time. Employee acknowledges that
currently all bonuses are discretionary, that the current officer bonus plan
does not include any nondiscretionary bonus plan, and that the Company does not
currently contemplate establishing any nondiscretionary bonus plan applicable to
Employee.

         5.       EXPENSES AND BENEFITS.

                  (a)      Reasonable and Necessary Expenses. In addition to the
compensation provided for in Section 4 hereof, 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 by submitting a signed statement itemizing such expenses prepared
in accordance with the policy set by the Company 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 Chief
Executive Officer.

                  (b)      Paid Time Off. Employee shall accrue thirty (30) days
of paid time off annually. With the exception of the accrual of paid time off,
all other portions of the Paid Time Off Program, as stated in the Company's
Employee Handbook, as may be modified from time to time, shall govern Employee's
paid time off. The time off may be taken any time during the year subject to
prior approval by the Company, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld.
The Company reserves the right to pay Employee for unused, accrued paid time off
benefits in lieu of providing time off.

                  (c)      Benefits. During Employee's employment with the
Company pursuant to this Agreement, the Company shall provide for Employee to:

insurance and disability insurance plans as the same may be modified from time
to time;

                           (ii)     receive, if Employee is insurable under
usual underwriting standards, term life insurance coverage on Employee's life,

$1,000,000.00 in coverage, provided that Employee's physical condition does not
prevent Employee from qualifying for such insurance coverage under reasonable
terms and conditions;

                           (iii)    participate in the Company's 401(k)
retirement investment plan pursuant to the terms of the plan, as the same may be
modified from time to time; and

                           (iv)     participate in the Company's Executive
Deferred Compensation Plan, as the same may be modified from time to time.

                           (v)      participate in any other benefit plans the
Company provides from time to time to senior executive officers. It is
understood that benefit plans within the meaning of this subsection do not
include compensation or bonus plans.

                  (d)      Estate Planning and Other Perquisites. To the extent
the Company provides tax and estate planning and related services, 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.

                  (e)      Club Membership. Employee shall be provided with
access to a country club in accordance with the Company's country club
membership policy, as modified from time to time. The club membership itself
shall belong to and be the property of the Company, not Employee.

                  (f)      Stock Options. Employee acknowledges that on
September 3, 2002, the Company granted Employee a stock option to purchase up to
75,000 shares of the common stock of Callaway Golf Company pursuant to the terms
and conditions of the Stock Option Agreement of even date therewith.

                  (g)      Relocation Reimbursement. The Company shall reimburse
Employee for expenses incurred in relocating his residences from Paris, France
and London, England to San Diego County, California, as set forth in the
Relocation Letter Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit C. The total amount of
the relocation reimbursement, including any gross-up for income tax purposes,
and Company-paid moving expenses shall not exceed $296,000.00.

         6.       TAX INDEMNIFICATION. Employee shall be indemnified by the
Company for certain excise tax obligations, as more specifically set forth in
Exhibit A to this Agreement.

         7.       BUSINESS ISSUES.

                  (a)      Other 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.

                  (b)      Other Employees. Except as may be required in the
performance of his or her 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.

                  (c)      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,

                                       3

<PAGE>

services or credit to the Company or any of its affiliates to diminish or cease
furnishing such goods, services or credit.

                  (d)      Conflict of Interest. While employed by the Company,
Employee shall not engage in any conduct or enterprise that shall constitute an
actual or apparent conflict of interest with respect to Employee's duties and
obligations to the Company.

                  (e)      Non-Interference. 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. Employee understands
that it is the policy of the Company that only the Chief Executive Officer, the
Senior Vice President of Global Press and Public Relations, and their specific
designees may speak to the press or media about the Company or its business, and
agrees not to interfere with the Company's press and public relations by
violating this policy.

         8.       TERMINATION.

                  (a)      Termination at the Company's Convenience. Employee's

severance. "Substantial cause" shall mean for purposes of this subsection
failure by Employee to substantially perform his or her duties, material breach
of this Agreement, or misconduct, including but not limited to, dishonesty,
theft, use or possession of illegal drugs during work, and/or felony criminal
conduct.

                  (c)      Termination by Employee for Substantial Cause.

or being unable to perform all or substantially all of Employee's duties under
this Agreement for a continuous period of more than six (6) months on account of
any physical or mental disability, either as mutually agreed to by the parties
or as reflected in the opinions of three 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
of a termination by the Company due to Employee's permanent disability, Employee
shall be entitled to (i) any compensation accrued and unpaid as of the date of
termination; (ii) severance payments equal to Employee's then current base
salary at the same rate and on the same schedule as in effect at the time of
termination for a period of twelve (12) months from the date of termination;
(iii) the immediate vesting of outstanding but unvested stock options held by
Employee as of such termination date in a prorated

                                       4

<PAGE>

amount based upon the number of days in the option vesting period that elapsed
prior to Employee's termination; (iv) the payment of premiums owed for COBRA
insurance benefits for a period of twelve (12) months from the date of
termination; and (v) no other severance. The Company shall be entitled to take,
as an offset against any amounts due pursuant to subsections (i) and (ii) above,
any amounts received by Employee pursuant to disability or other insurance, or
similar sources, provided by the Company.

                  (e)      Termination Due to Death. Employee's employment under

current base salary at the same rate and on the same schedule as in effect at
the time of death for a period of twelve (12) months from the date of death;

Employee as of the date of death in a prorated amount based upon the number of
days in the option vesting period that elapsed prior to Employee's death; and

                  (f)      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.

                  (g)      Pre-Termination Rights. The Company shall have the
right, at its option, to require Employee to vacate his or her 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.

         9.       RIGHTS UPON A CHANGE IN CONTROL.

                  (a)      If a Change in Control (as defined in Exhibit B
hereto) occurs before the termination of Employee's employment hereunder, then
this Agreement shall be automatically renewed (the "Renewed Employment
Agreement") in the same form and substance as in effect immediately prior to the
Change in Control for an initial term of three (3) years commencing with the
date the Change in Control was effective (the "Renewal Term"), with further
extensions as provided in Section 1 of this Agreement.

                  (b)      Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the
contrary, if upon or at any time within one (1) year following any Change in
Control that occurs during the term of this Agreement there is a Termination
Event (as defined below), Employee shall be treated as if he or she had been
terminated for the convenience of the Company pursuant to Section 8(a).
Furthermore, the provisions of Section 8 shall continue to apply during the term
of the Renewed Employment Agreement except that, in the event of a conflict
between Section 8 and the rights of Employee described in this Section 9, the
provisions of this Section 9 shall govern.

                  (c)      A "Termination Event" shall mean the occurrence of
any one or more of the following, and in the absence of Employee's permanent
disability (defined in Section 8(d)), Employee's death, or any of the factors
enumerated in Section 8(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;

                           (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;

                                       5

<PAGE>

                           (iv)     any reduction, limitation or failure to pay
or provide any of the compensation, reimbursable expenses, stock options,
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 he or she had immediately prior
to the Change in Control.

         10.      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

of the Company within the meaning of all federal, state and local laws and
regulations, including, but not limited to, laws and regulations governing

taxes.

         12.      TRADE SECRETS AND CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION.

                  (a)      As used in this Agreement, the term "Trade Secrets
and Confidential Information" means information, whether written or oral, not
generally available to the public, regardless of whether it is suitable to be
patented, copyrighted and/or trademarked, which is received from the Company
and/or its affiliates, either directly or indirectly, including but not limited
to (i) concepts, ideas, plans and strategies involved in the Company's and/or
its affiliates' products, (ii) the processes, formulae and techniques disclosed
by the Company and/or its affiliates to Employee or observed by Employee, (iii)
the designs, inventions and innovations and related plans, strategies and
applications which Employee develops during the term of this Agreement in

affiliates; and (iv) third party information which the Company and/or its
affiliates has/have agreed to keep confidential.

                  (b)      Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection 12(a),
the term "Trade Secrets and Confidential Information" does not include (i)
information which, at the time of disclosure or observation, had been previously
published or otherwise publicly disclosed; (ii) information which is published
(or otherwise publicly disclosed) after disclosure or observation, unless such
publication is a breach of this Agreement or is otherwise a violation of
contractual, legal or fiduciary duties owed to the Company, which violation is
known to Employee; or (iii) information which, subsequent to disclosure or
observation, is obtained by Employee from a third person who is lawfully in
possession of such information (which information is not acquired in violation
of any contractual, legal, or fiduciary obligation owed to the Company with
respect to such information, and is known by Employee) and who is not required
to refrain from disclosing such information to others.

                  (c)      While employed by the Company, Employee will have
access to and become familiar with various Trade Secrets and Confidential
Information. Employee acknowledges that the Trade Secrets and Confidential
Information are owned and shall continue to be owned solely by the Company
and/or its affiliates. Employee agrees that Employee will not, at any time,
whether during or subsequent to Employee's employment by the Company and/or its
affiliates, use or disclose Trade Secrets and

                                       6

<PAGE>

Confidential Information for any competitive purpose or divulge the same 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 disclose it 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.

                  (d)      The provisions of this Section 12 shall survive the
termination or expiration of this Agreement, and shall be binding upon Employee
in perpetuity.

         13.      ASSIGNMENT OF RIGHTS.

                  (a)      As used in this Agreement, "Designs, Inventions and
Innovations," whether or not they have been patented, trademarked, or
copyrighted, include, but are not limited to designs, inventions, innovations,
ideas, improvements, processes, sources of and uses for materials, apparatus,
plans, systems and computer programs relating to the design, manufacture, use,
marketing, distribution and management of the Company's and/or its affiliates'
products.

                  (b)      As a material part of the terms and understandings of
this Agreement, Employee agrees to assign to the Company all Designs, Inventions
and Innovations developed, conceived and/or reduced to practice by Employee,
alone or with anyone else, in connection with the work performed by Employee for
the Company during Employee's employment with the Company, regardless of whether
they are suitable to be patented, trademarked and/or copyrighted.

                  (c)      Employee agrees to disclose in writing to the Chief
Executive Officer of the Company any Design, Invention or Innovation relating to
the business of the Company and/or its affiliates, which Employee develops,
conceives and/or reduces to practice in connection with any work performed by
Employee for the Company, either alone or with 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 he or she is required under this
Agreement, or pursuant to California Labor Code Section 2870, to assign his or
her 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.

                  (d)      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:

                           (i)      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

                           (ii)     Result from any work performed by Employee
for the Company and/or its affiliates.

                  (e)      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

                                       7

<PAGE>

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

provisions of this Agreement is or are held invalid, the remaining provisions of
this Agreement shall not be affected thereby.

                  (e)      Advertising Waiver. Employee agrees to permit the

                  (f)      Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one

         19.      SPECIAL SEVERANCE.

                  (a)      Amount. Special Severance shall consist of (i)
severance payments equal to one-half of Employee's then current base salary at
the same rate and on the same payment schedule as in effect at the time of
termination for a period of time equal to the greater of twelve (12) months from
the date of termination or the remainder of any Renewal Term; (ii) the payment
of premiums owed for COBRA insurance benefits for a period of twelve (12) months
from the date of termination; and (iii) no other severance.

                  (b)      Conditions on Receiving Special Severance.
Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary, it is expressly understood that
any obligation of the Company to pay Special Severance pursuant to this
Agreement shall be subject to: (i) Employee's continued compliance with the
terms and conditions of Sections 7(b), 7(c), 7(e), 12, 13 and 17; and (ii)
Employee shall not, directly, indirectly or in any other way, disparage the
Company, its officers or employees, vendors, customers, products or activities,
or otherwise interfere with the Company's press, public and media relations.

         20.      INCENTIVE PAYMENTS.

                  (a)      Terms and Conditions. Incentive Payments shall be
equal to one-half of Employee's then-current base salary at the rate and on the
same payment schedule in effect at the time of termination for a period of time
equal to the greater of twelve (12) months from the date of termination or the
remainder of any Renewal Term. Incentive Payments shall be conditioned upon
Employee choosing 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
Incentive Payments for the period of time during which Employee chooses to do
so.

                  (b)      Sole Consideration. Employee and the Company agree
and acknowledge that the sole and exclusive consideration for the Incentive
Payments is Employee's agreement as described in subparagraph (a) above. In the
event that subparagraph (a) 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 Section 20 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 Section 20 shall have no effect upon the
validity or invalidity of the other provisions of this Agreement.

         21.      TREATMENT OF SPECIAL SEVERANCE AND INCENTIVE PAYMENTS. Any
Special Severance and Incentive Payments shall be subject to usual and customary
employee payroll practices and all applicable withholding requirements. Except
for the amounts specifically provided pursuant to Sections 8, 19 and 20,
Employee shall not be entitled to any further compensation, bonus, damages,
restitution, relocation benefits, or other severance benefits upon termination
of employment. The amounts

                                       10

<PAGE>

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 Sections
8, 19 and 20 any amounts earned by Employee in other employment after
termination of his or her 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 Sections
8, 19 and 20 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.

         IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have caused this Agreement to be
executed effective the date first written above.

                                    EXHIBIT A

                               TAX INDEMNIFICATION

         Pursuant to Section 6 of Employee's Agreement ("Section 6"), the
Company agrees to indemnify Employee with respect to certain excise tax
obligations as follows:

         1.       Definitions. For purposes of Section 6 and this Exhibit A, the
following terms shall have the meanings specified herein:

                  (a)      "Claim" shall mean any written claim (whether in the
form of a tax assessment, proposed tax deficiency or similar written
notification) by the Internal Revenue Service or any state or local tax
authority that, if successful, would result in any Excise Tax or an
Underpayment.

                  (b)      "Code" shall mean the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,
as amended. All references herein to any section, subsection or other provision
of the Code shall be deemed to refer to any successor thereto.

                  (c)      "Excise Tax" shall mean (i) any excise tax imposed by
Section 4999 of the Code or any comparable federal, state or local tax, and (ii)
any interest and/or penalties incurred with respect to any tax described in
1(c)(i).

                  (d)      Gross-Up Payment shall mean a cash payment as
specified in Section 2.

                  (e)      "Overpayment" and "Underpayment" shall have the
meanings specified in Section 4.

                  (f)      "Payment" shall mean any payment, benefit or
distribution (including, without limitation, cash, the acceleration of the
granting, vesting or exercisability of stock options or other incentive awards,
or the accrual or continuation of any other payments or benefits) granted or
paid to or for the benefit of Employee by the Company or by any person or
persons whose actions result in a Taxable Event (as defined in this Section), or
by any person affiliated with the Company or such person(s), whether paid or
payable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or otherwise. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, a Payment shall not include any Gross-Up Payment required under
Section 6 and this Exhibit A

                  (g)      "Taxable Event" shall mean any change in control or
other event which triggers the imposition of any Excise Tax on any Payment.

         2.       In the event that any Payment is determined to be subject to
any Excise Tax, then Employee shall be entitled to receive from the Company a
Gross-Up Payment in an amount such that, after the payment of all income taxes,
Excise Taxes and any other taxes imposed with respect to the Gross-Up Payment
(together with payment of all interest and penalties imposed with respect to any
such taxes), Employee shall retain a net amount of the Gross-Up Payment equal to
the Excise Tax imposed with respect to the Payments.

         3.       All determinations required to be made under Section 6 and
this Exhibit A, including, without limitation, whether and when a Gross-Up
Payment is required and the amount of such Gross-Up Payment, and the assumptions
to be utilized in arriving at such determinations, shall be made by a nationally
recognized public accounting firm selected by the Company, consistent with the
Company's policies and applicable law (hereinafter referred to as the
"Accounting Firm"). The Accounting Firm shall provide detailed supporting
calculations to the Company and to Employee regarding the amount of Excise Tax
(if any) which is payable, and the Gross-Up Payment (if any) required hereunder,
with respect to any Payment or Payments, with such calculations to be provided
at such time as may be requested by the Company but in no event later than
fifteen (15) business days following receipt of a written notice from Employee
that there has been a Payment that may be subject to an Excise Tax. All fees and
expenses of

                                       12

<PAGE>

the Accounting Firm shall be borne solely by the Company. Any Gross-Up Payment
as determined pursuant to Section 6 and this Exhibit A shall be paid by the
Company to Employee within five (5) business days after receipt of the
Accounting Firm's determination. If the Accounting Firm determines that no
Excise Tax is payable by Employee, the Accounting Firm shall furnish Employee
with a written opinion that failure to disclose, report or pay the Excise Tax on
Employee's federal or other applicable tax returns will not result in the
imposition of a negligence penalty, understatement penalty or other similar
penalty. All determinations by the Accounting Firm shall be binding upon the
Company and Employee in the absence of clear and indisputable mathematical
error. Following receipt of a Gross-Up Payment as provided herein, Employee
shall be obligated to properly and timely report his/her Excise Tax liability on
the applicable tax returns or reports and to pay the full amount of Excise Tax
with funds provided through such Gross-Up Payment. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, if the Company reasonably determines that Employee will be unable or
otherwise may fail to make such Excise Tax payment, the Company may elect to pay
the Excise Tax to the Internal Revenue Service and/or other applicable tax
authority on behalf of Employee, in which case the Company shall pay the net
balance of the Gross-Up Payment (after deduction of such Excess Tax payment) to
Employee.

         4.       As a result of uncertainty in the application of Section 4999
of the Code, it is possible that a Gross-Up Payment will not have been made by
the Company that should have been made (an "Underpayment") or that a Gross-Up
Payment is made that should not have been made (an "Overpayment"). In the event
that Employee is required to make a payment of any Excise Tax, due to an
Underpayment, the Accounting Firm shall determine the amount of Underpayment
that has occurred and any such Underpayment shall be promptly paid by the
Company to Employee in which case Employee shall be obligated to make a timely
payment of the full amount of the applicable Excise Tax to the applicable tax
authority, provided, however, the Company may elect to pay the Excise Tax to the
applicable tax authority on behalf of Employee consistent with the provisions of
Section 3, in which case the Company shall pay the net balance of the
Underpayment (after deduction of such Excise Tax payment) to Employee. In the
event that the Accounting Firm determines that an Overpayment has been made, any
such Overpayment shall be repaid by Employee to the Company within ninety (90)
days after written demand to Employee by the Company, provided, however, that
Employee shall have no obligation to repay any amount of the Overpayment that
has been paid to, and not recovered from, a tax authority, provided further,
however, in such event the Company may direct Employee to prosecute a claim for
a refund of such amount consistent with the principles set forth in Section 5.

         5.       Employee shall notify the Company in writing of any Claim.
Such notice (a) shall be given as soon as practicable, but in no event later
than fifteen (15) business days, following Employee's receipt of written notice
of the Claim from the applicable tax authority, and (b) shall include a compete
and accurate copy of the tax authority's written Claim or otherwise fully inform
the Company of the nature of the Claim and the date on which any payment of the
Claim must be paid, provided that Employee shall not be required to give notice
to the Company of facts of which the Company is already aware, and provided
further that failure or delay by Employee to give such notice shall not
constitute a breach of Section 6 or this Exhibit A except to the extent that the
Company is prejudiced thereby. Employee shall not pay any portion of a Claim
prior to the earlier of (a) the expiration of thirty (30) days following the
date on which Employee gives the foregoing notice to the Company, (b) the date
that any Excise Tax payment under the Claim is due, or (c) the date the Company
notifies Employee that it does not intend to contest the Claim. If, prior to
expiration of such period, the Company notifies Employee in writing that it
desires to contest the Claim, Employee shall:

                  (a)      give the Company any information reasonably requested
by the Company relating to the Claim;

                  (b)      take such action in connection with contesting the
Claim as the Company shall reasonably request in writing from time to time,
including, without limitation, accepting legal representation with respect to
the Claim by an attorney selected and compensated by the Company who is
reasonably acceptable to Employee;

                                       13

<PAGE>

                  (c)      cooperate with the Company in good faith in order to
effectively contest the Claim; and

                  (d)      permit the Company to participate (at its expense) in
any and all proceedings and conferences pertaining to the Claim; provided,
however, that the Company shall bear and pay directly all costs and expenses
(including, without limitation, additional interest and penalties and attorneys'
fees) incurred in connection with any such contest, and shall indemnify and hold
Employee harmless, on an after-tax basis, for any Excise Tax or income tax
(including, without limitation, interest and penalties with respect thereto) and
all costs imposed or incurred in connection with such contests. Without
limitation upon the foregoing provisions of this Section 5, and except as
provided below, the Company shall control all proceedings concerning any such
contest and, at its sole option, may pursue or forego any and all administrative
appeals, proceedings, hearings and conferences with tax authorities pertaining
to the Claim. At the written request of the Company, and upon payment to
Employee of an amount at least equal to the Claim plus any additional amount
necessary to obtain the jurisdiction of the appropriate tribunal and/or court,
Employee shall pay the same and sue for a refund or otherwise contest the Claim
in any permissible manner as directed by the Company. Employee agrees to
prosecute any contest of a Claim to a determination before any administrative
tribunal, in a court of initial jurisdiction and in one or more appellate
courts, as the Company shall determine, provided, however, that if the Company
requests Employee to pay the Claim and sue for a refund, the Company shall
indemnify and hold Employee harmless, on an after-tax basis, from any Excise Tax
or income tax (including, without limitation, interest and penalties with
respect thereto) and costs imposed or incurred in connection with such contest
or with respect to any imputed income attributable to any advances or payments
by the Company hereunder. Any extension of the statute of limitations relating
to assessment of any Excise Tax for the taxable year of Employee which is the
subject of a Claim is to be limited solely to the Claim. Furthermore, the
Company's control of a contest as provided hereunder shall be limited to issues
for which a Gross-Up Payment would be payable hereunder, and Employee shall be
entitled to settle or contest, as the case may be, any other issue raised by the
Internal Revenue Service or any other tax authority.

         6.       If Employee receives a refund from a tax authority of all or
any portion of an Excise Tax paid by or on behalf of Employee with amounts
advanced by the Company pursuant to Section 6 and this Exhibit A, Employee shall
promptly pay to the Company the amount of such refund (together with any
interest paid or credited thereon after taxes applicable thereto). Employee
shall, if so directed by the Company, file and otherwise prosecute a claim for
refund of any Excise Tax payment made by or on behalf of Employee with amounts
advanced by the Company pursuant to Section 6 and this Exhibit A, with any such
refund claim to be effected in accordance with the principles set forth in
Section 5. If a determination is made that Employee shall not be entitled to any
refund and the Company does not notify Employee in writing of its intent to
contest such denial of refund prior to the expiration of thirty (30) days after
such determination, then Employee shall have no further obligation hereunder to
contest such denial or to repay to the Company the amount involved in such
unsuccessful refund claim. The amount of any advances which are made by the
Company in connection with any such refund claim hereunder, to the extent not
refunded by the applicable tax authority to Employee, shall offset, as
appropriate consistent with the purposes of Section 6 and this Exhibit A, the
amount of any Gross-Up Payment required hereunder to be paid by the Company to
Employee.

                                CHANGE IN CONTROL

         A "Change in Control" means the following and shall be deemed to occur
if any of the following events occurs:

         1.       Any person, entity or group, within the meaning of Section
13(d) or 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") but
excluding the Company and its affiliates and any employee benefit or stock
ownership plan of the Company or its affiliates and also excluding an
underwriter or underwriting syndicate that has acquired the Company's securities
solely in connection with a public offering thereof (such person, entity or
group being referred to herein as a "Person") becomes the beneficial owner
(within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act) of 30% or
more of either the then outstanding shares of Common Stock or the combined
voting power of the Company's then outstanding securities entitled to vote
generally in the election of directors; or

         2.       Individuals who, as of the effective date hereof, constitute
the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Incumbent Board") cease for any
reason to constitute at least a majority of the Board of Directors of the
Company, provided that any individual who becomes a director after the effective
date hereof whose election, or nomination for election by the Company's
shareholders, is approved by a vote of at least a majority of the directors then
comprising the Incumbent Board shall be considered to be a member of the
Incumbent Board unless that individual was nominated or elected by any Person
having the power to exercise, through beneficial ownership, voting agreement
and/or proxy, 20% or more of either the outstanding shares of Common Stock or
the combined voting power of the Company's then outstanding voting securities
entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, in which case that
individual shall not be considered to be a member of the Incumbent Board unless
such individual's election or nomination for election by the Company's
shareholders is approved by a vote of at least two-thirds of the directors then
comprising the Incumbent Board; or

         3.       Consummation by the Company of the sale or other disposition

would result in the voting securities of the Company outstanding immediately
prior thereto (or, in the case of a reorganization or merger or consolidation
that is preceded or accomplished by an acquisition or series of related
acquisitions by any Person, by tender or exchange offer or otherwise, of voting
securities representing 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

                       DESCRIPTION OF RELOCATION BENEFITS

Your move must be completed within one year from the date you receive
authorization to work in the United States. All eligible expenses must be
submitted for reimbursement within this timeframe. If you voluntarily cancel
your move, all relocation payments will cease

In accordance with the specific benefit levels and programs defined in this
Agreement, Callaway Golf will provide assistance and/or reimbursement for the
following expenses:

MOVING EXPENSES
You will be provided with moving services best suited to provide you with
quality service based on your point(s) of origin and destination. Once a moving
service is selected, a representative will be contacting you to arrange for a
pre-move survey. This person will work with you in all subsequent scheduling of
packing, moving, delivery and unpacking. We will also pay for insurance during
transport and storage.

There are three separate moves included in your relocation:

     -   England to the U.S. to temporary housing or storage (one shipment)

     -   France to the U.S. to temporary housing or storage (one shipment, to be
         combined with your UK container)

     -   Temporary housing and/or storage to your permanent residence (up to two
         shipments)

Payment for moving services and insurance will be direct billed to Callaway Golf
and is non-taxable.

Please note that the following expenses and services are not covered:

     -   Shipment of hazardous materials such as explosives, chemicals,
         flammable materials or firearms.

     -   Shipment of firewood, lumber or other building materials.

     -   Valuables such as jewelry, currency, dissertations or publishable
         papers, collectibles or items of extraordinary value.

     -   Shipment of plants, food, or other perishables.

     -   Removal, disassembly, or installation of carpeting, drapery rods,
         storage sheds or other permanent fixtures.

     -   Shipment of recreational vehicles including snowmobiles and boats.
         Unusually heavy or cumbersome hobby materials, or inoperable
         automobiles.

     -   Satellite dishes.

     -   Voluntary tips to movers.

     -   Maid or cleaning service.

This list is not all-inclusive, and you should discuss any specific questions
around what you may or may not ship with the carrier.

Insurance at full replacement value is provided for your personal property while
in transit to a maximum of $100,000 coverage. The insurance does not cover:
jewelry, bills, deeds, evidence of debt, currency, letters of credit, passports,
airline or other tickets, securities, items of extraordinary value, including
collections. Please consult with your carrier regarding these or any other high
value items, including tax and bank records.

                                       17

<PAGE>

Additional insurance is at your expense, so please consult your personal
insurance policy representative for an explanation of coverage for items in
transit, as well as coverage for vacant property at the former and/or new
locations, if applicable. If you believe additional insurance above the $100,000
limit is required for your belongings, please contact Human Resources.

STORAGE FEES
Depending on when you decide to purchase a permanent residence, Callaway Golf
will pay on your behalf, up to eight (8) months of temporary storage. Payment
for moving services and storage for the first 30 days is non-taxable, and
thereafter, is considered taxable income. Tax assistance up to (7) months
storage will be provided. Storage fees will be direct billed to Callaway Golf.

LEASE CANCELLATION
Callaway Golf will reimburse you for termination fees for canceling the lease on
your apartment in England. Reimbursement will be coordinated through Callaway
Golf and is considered taxable income. Tax assistance will be provided.

HOME SALE ASSISTANCE AND TEMPORARY HOUSING EXPENSES
For the time being, you have decided to keep your home in France, and we
appreciate that this is a personal decision. Therefore, we have prepared two (2)
options for your consideration. Please let us know which one best meets your
needs on or before December 15, 2002.

OPTION 1: Within one year, if you choose to sell your home in France to a third
party, you will receive reimbursement for commission and closing costs
associated with the sale of that property. You will maintain responsibility for
all utilities and maintenance of the property in France until it is sold.
Callaway Golf will reimburse you for up to eight (8) months of temporary housing
expenses, to include utilities (but excluding renter's insurance). Reimbursement
will be coordinated through Callaway Golf and is considered taxable income. Tax
assistance will be provided.

OPTION 2: If you decide to sell your home in France in order to purchase a new
residence in the U.S., but you are unable to sell your home in order to complete
the purchase on your new U.S. residence, Callaway Golf will purchase your home
for fair market value, and give you three (3) months temporary housing paid for
by Callaway Golf. Under this scenario, you will not receive reimbursement for
commission and closing costs associated with the sale of your home in France,
and all resale profits, if any, will be retained by Callaway Golf.

To determine what constitutes fair market value, TranSafari will provide you
with a list of qualified relocation appraisers. The list includes appraisers who
are continuously monitored and evaluated for accuracy, timeliness, and
professionalism. You will be asked to select three (3) appraisers from the list
(you may not select an appraiser who has appraised your home within the last six
(6) months). One will serve as an alternate in case one of the others is
unavailable or in case a third appraisal is needed. Notify TranSafari of your
choices, and they will order two (2) appraisals using the appraisers you have
selected. In turn, each appraiser will contact you (or the person you designate)
to schedule an appointment.

The appraisers will determine the Anticipated Sales Price of your home; the
price at which the property is anticipated to sell in a competitive and open
market, assuming an arm's length transaction. In estimating the sales price, the
appraisers will look at competing listings, recent comparable sales, and other
market variables through the eyes of a typical buyer.

In conjunction with the appraisal process, TranSafari will order all appropriate
inspections for your area. Other inspections may be ordered, as recommended by
the appraisers, Realtors, or inspectors. The Appraised Value Offer cannot be
released without the results of all inspections.

                                       18

<PAGE>

The appraisers will contact TranSafari with the results of their appraisals and
will follow up with written appraisal reports. The reports will be reviewed for
accuracy and consistency. Approximately three (3) weeks from the date the last
appraiser visits your home, TranSafari will contact you to present the Appraised
Value Offer and all inspection results.

The Appraised Value Offer will be the average of the two (2) appraisals
performed on your home. If the two (2) appraisals differ by more than five
percent (5%), a third appraisal will be ordered (using the alternate appraiser
you have selected). In this case, the Appraised Value Offer will be the average
of the two (2) closest appraisals.

You will have 60 days to accept the offer starting upon the day the Appraised
Value Offer is communicated to you. Contracts of Sale, a deed package, and all
necessary documents required to sell your home to Callaway Golf will be
forwarded to you. Execution and notarization of these documents will be required
if you elect to accept the Appraised Value Offer.

If you wish to remain in your home after acceptance of the Appraised Value
Offer, you may do so for up to 30 days from the date of your acceptance. Please
be aware that TranSafari will be marketing the property on behalf of Callaway
Golf during the time you remain in the home. Your cooperation in keeping it in
order and scheduling showings is expected and appreciated.

Callaway Golf will assume responsibility of all mortgage payments, utilities,
and maintenance as of the date of possession. Possession is defined as the day
you contract or vacate, whichever is later. Before possession, all expenses will
remain your responsibility.

Your equity will be the Appraised Value Offer minus the mortgage balance,
mortgage interest prorations, tax prorations, costs of any repairs and all other
liens against the property.

Disclosure: it is the duty of the seller to make known or public to a buyer the
condition of the property, particularly any defect that could affect its value,
habitability, or desirability. If you do not disclose complete and accurate
information that is subsequently discovered, you may be held responsible for all
expenses involved in correcting the defect(s) and any possible litigation.

RENTING/LEASING BACK THE HOME IN FRANCE (OPTION 2 ONLY)
If you choose Option 2 as described under Home Sale Assistance in this
Agreement, and you find it necessary to lease back the home in France until
June, 2003, then Callaway Golf will obtain a recommendation from a Real Estate
professional to determine the market rate for rental value of the property.
Callaway Golf will rent back the property to you at the current market rate
until such time the home can be sold, and the new owner takes possession.
Callaway Golf will continue to actively market the property, and will include a
rent back contingency clause as a condition of sale to all prospective buyers,
that states the home must be leased back to us through June, 2003 if the home is
purchased prior to that date. Serving in the capacity of a lessor, Callaway Golf
will require prepayment of the last month's rent, and a reasonable security
deposit, to be determined. A separate agreement will be prepared for Callaway
Golf's and your signatures in the event you decide to lease back the home in
France after selling it to us. Please note that a condition of any rental
agreement will require the tenant's cooperation in keeping the home in order as
well as cooperation in scheduled showings.

HOME FINDING TRIPS
To assist you in this phase of your move, you and your spouse are eligible for
two (2) home finding trips to the new location (business class travel). You will
be reimbursed the actual and reasonable costs for the following:

-   Two (2) trips to the new location, not to exceed a total of seven (7)
    days (six (6) nights lodging)

-   Transportation, lodging and meal expenses

-   One child may accompany parents on two (2) trips

                                       19

-   Rental Car

Reimbursement will be coordinated through Callaway Golf and is considered
taxable income. Tax assistance will be provided.

HOME PURCHASE
There are numerous expenses associated with the closing of a new home in
California. Callaway Golf will arrange for you to be reimbursed for most typical
buyer's expenses in your new location. The following criteria must be met for
reimbursement:

     -   Your new home purchase must occur within one year of your effective
         date of authorization to work in the U.S.

     -   Fees and charges most commonly covered include:

         and radon

     -   Mortgage application fee

     -   Loan origination and points up to one percent (1%) of the mortgage
         amount. Should the mortgage interest rate exceed 8.01%, loan fees are
         increased by one percent (1%). [The interest rate used will be based
         upon the FNMA posted yield on the thirty-year mortgage commitment
         (priced at par), for delivery within sixty days. This rate is published
         daily in the "Money Rates" section of the Wall Street Journal.]

The following costs will NOT be reimbursed:

     -   Buydown points or fees, other than the terms listed above

     -   Property tax, insurance or interest

     -   Expenses normally charged to the seller

     -   Soil Reports (Geological Surveys)

     -   Home Warranty Insurance Program

     -   Private Mortgage Insurance

     -   Improvement Assessments by State, City, County taxing authorities

     -   Homeowner's Association Dues/Assessments

Reimbursement of the approved buyer's closing costs will be coordinated by
Callaway Golf and will be considered taxable income. Loan origination fees
/discount points are considered tax deductible and WILL NOT BE tax-assisted. The
remaining closing costs WILL BE tax-assisted.

AUTO LEASE/RENTAL
As you will not have transportation on arrival, Callaway Golf will reimburse you
for a total of six (6) months combined reimbursements for auto lease and rental,
as follows:

     -   Full reimbursement for automobile rental up to two (2) months.

     -   Up to $500 per month for automobile rental, lease or purchase for up to
         four more (4) months.

As your spouse will also require transportation, we will pay for up to two (2)
month's rental for an automobile for her use. Reimbursement will be coordinated
through Callaway Golf and is considered taxable income. Tax assistance will be
provided.

TAX ASSISTANCE
The IRS considers all those expenses paid to you, or on your behalf, as
compensation except those expenses associated with:

         -   Sale of your home

         -   Household goods shipment

         -   Thirty (30) days of household goods storage

         -   Final move expenses, excluding meals

Reimbursement payments will appear on your W-2 for the year that the payment was
disbursed to you. Payments that are considered taxable income are subject to tax
withholding in compliance with IRS regulations. To help minimize your tax burden
and to assist with the additional federal, state, and Medicare tax liability
that results from the reimbursed moving expenses, Callaway Golf will provide tax
assistance on many of the payments made to you. Those payments that are not
tax-assisted are identified as such in this document, as well as noted on the
tax summary information table located on the following page. The tax assistance
is based on taxable payments, other Company income and your filing status.

We encourage you to continue working with Price Waterhouse Cooper (PWC), and
Callaway Golf will pay PWC for tax return preparation for the tax years 2002 and
2003. In addition, we have retained AYCO Financial Services as part of our
Executive benefits package, and we strongly encourage you to take advantage of
this benefit. In addition to coordinating with PWC, they will also provide you
with comprehensive financial planning services to meet your specific needs.

Please note the following:

     -   It is imperative that you keep records and receipts of all your
         expenses to manage the tax return filing process at year end.

     -   A year end tax statement that will itemize all your relocation expenses
         will be prepared and sent to you by January 31 for the tax year(s)
         after your move. As it is likely you will receive relocation benefits
         for tax year 2002 and 2003, you will receive statements in January,
         2003 for your 2002 relocation benefits and in January, 2004 for
         relocation benefits paid in 2003. You will receive tax assistance at
         the time the statement is prepared.

     -   Consult a professional tax advisor for details on the tax implications
         of your relocation. Along with seeking the assistance of a professional
         tax advisor, consider reading the following IRS information guides:

               -    Publication 521 - Moving Expenses

               -    Publication 523 - Tax Information on Selling Your Home.

               -    Publication 530 - for first time home sellers.

         To order these guides or necessary tax forms call 1-800-TAX-FORM.
