	GEORGE FELLOWS 	 	PLAN: 2004 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN

  
 1. Grant
of Option. Effective August 1, 2005 (“Effective Date”), you have been granted a Non-qualified Stock Option (“Option”) to buy shares of Callaway Golf Company (the “Company”) common stock upon the following
terms: 
  

								
	SHARES

	 	EXERCISE PRICE

	 	SCHEDULED VESTING DATE

	 	SCHEDULED EXPIRATION DATE

	133,334	 	$	14.93	 	August 1, 2006	 	August 1, 2015
	133,333	 	$	14.93	 	August 1, 2007	 	August 1, 2015
	133,333	 	$	14.93	 	August 1, 2008	 	August 1, 2015

  
 The Option is granted
to you pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Notice of Grant of Stock Option and Option Agreement (this “Agreement”), and the Company’s 2004 Equity Incentive Plan (as amended and restated from time to time, the
“Plan”), the provisions of which Plan are by this reference incorporated in this Agreement. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of the Plan and the provisions of this Agreement, the provisions of the Plan shall be
controlling. The Company has provided you with a copy of the Plan. 
  
 The exercise price must be paid in the form of cash, unless otherwise determined by the Board of Directors or Committee administering the plan (“Committee”) in their sole discretion. Upon exercise of the Option, you must pay in
the form of a check or cash or other cash equivalents to the Company any such additional amount as the Company determines that it is required to withhold under applicable laws in respect of such exercise; provided that you may satisfy such
withholding obligation by authorizing the Company to withhold from the shares otherwise issuable to you upon the exercise of the Option that number of shares having an aggregate Fair Market Value (as defined in the Plan), determined as of the date
the withholding tax obligation arises, equal to the amount of the total withholding tax obligation; provided, however, that, the number of shares so withheld shall not have an aggregate Fair Market Value in excess of the minimum required
withholding. 
  
 2. Vesting. Subject to
Section 3 (Term and Termination) and Section 4 (Cancellation, Forfeiture and Rescission) of this Agreement, and subject to the accelerated vesting provisions, if any, set forth in any employment agreement between you and the
Company or its subsidiary, as the same may be amended, modified, extended or renewed from time to time, the Option shall vest in accordance with the vesting schedule set forth above. The Committee may in its discretion accelerate the vesting
schedule (in which case it may impose whatever conditions it considers appropriate on the accelerated portion). In addition, the entire Option shall vest and become exercisable immediately prior to any Change in Control, if you are an employee of
the Company or its subsidiary at that time, provided, however, that the Board of Directors, or appropriate committee thereof, in its sole discretion, may provide that such Option does not vest and become exercisable immediately prior to any such
Change in Control, and instead provide that the Option shall be assumed or that an equivalent option or right shall be substituted by a successor company, in which case the amount and price of such assumed or substituted option shall be determined
by adjusting the amount and price of the Option consistent with the terms of the transaction giving rise to the Change in Control. For purposes hereof, “Change in Control” shall have the meaning set forth in Exhibit A attached
hereto. 
  
 3. Term and Termination. Subject to
Section 4 (Cancellation, Forfeiture and Rescission) hereof, the Option shall expire on the earlier of (i) the scheduled expiration date set forth above or (ii) in the case of an Option that has vested, one (1) year from
the date on which you cease to be an employee or consultant of the Company or its subsidiary for any reason including death. Subject to Section 2 (Vesting), if you cease for any reason to be an employee of the Company or its subsidiary,
that portion of the Option which has not yet vested shall be terminated. 

 4. Cancellation, Forfeiture and Rescission. 
  
 (a) If during your employment or during any period
thereafter that you are receiving Special Severance from the Company, you directly or indirectly disclose or misuse any confidential information or trade secrets of the Company then: 
  
 (1) any unexercised portion of the Option is automatically cancelled as of the date you first committed the
act or acts described above (the “Cancellation Date”); and 
  
 (2) any exercise of all or any portion of the Option exercised on or after the Cancellation Date or during the “Look-Back Period” preceding the Cancellation Date shall be rescinded, and you shall be required
to pay to the Company, within ten days of receiving written notice from the Company, the amount of any gain realized as the result of any such rescinded exercise (the “Option Gain”). 
  
 The Company shall notify you in writing of any such rescission within two years of any such
exercise. If you are still an employee on the Cancellation Date, the “Look-Back Period” is ninety days. If you are no longer an employee on the Cancellation Date, the “Look-Back Period” is the longer of ninety days or the number
of days elapsed from the date of termination of your employment to the Cancellation Date. For purposes of this Agreement, an “indirect” use of the Company’s confidential information or trade secrets shall be presumed to have occurred
if you take a comparable position with a competitor in which case you shall have the burden of proving that no use or disclosure of confidential information or trade secrets occurred or will occur. For purposes of this Agreement, and in the absence
of proof of actual gain on the date of exercise, “Option Gain” shall mean the New York Stock Exchange closing price on the date of exercise minus the exercise price of the Option, multiplied by the number of shares you purchased upon the
exercise, without regard to any subsequent market price decrease or increase. 
  
 (b) In lieu of paying to the Company any Option Gain required to be paid to Company pursuant to this Section 4, you may return to the Company the number of shares purchased upon exercise of the Option. You
hereby agree that the Company may set off against any amount the Company may now or hereafter owe you the amount of any Option Gain required to be paid by you to Company under this Section 4. This Section 4 does not limit any
other legal or equitable remedy available to the Company. As a condition of each exercise of all or any portion of the Option, you will be required to certify to the Company on a form of notice of exercise acceptable to the Company that you have not
committed any of the acts described in paragraph (a) above. 
  
 You
acknowledge that you have read each provision of this Section 4 and have had an opportunity to ask questions with respect to this Section. You acknowledge that you understand that the Company is granting the Option subject to the terms
of this Section 4. 
  
                      (Optionee) 
  
 5. Severability. The provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed to be severable and the invalidity or unenforceability of any
provision shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions hereof. If any provision of this Agreement, or the application thereof to any person or any circumstance, is held to be invalid or unenforceable under present or
future laws effective during the term of this Agreement, such provision shall be fully severed, and in lieu thereof there shall automatically be added as part of this Agreement a suitable and equitable provision in order to carry out, so far as may
be valid and enforceable, the intent and purpose of such invalid or unenforceable provision. 
  
 6. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware and applicable federal law. 
  
 7. Arbitration. 
  
 (a) You 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, that cannot be resolved by mutual agreement of the parties shall be submitted to binding arbitration. You and the
Company also 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) You and the Company agree that the arbitrator shall have the authority to issue provisional relief. You and the Company further
agree that each has the right 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. 
  

 2 

 (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 conducted pursuant to the procedural rules stated in the National Rules for Resolution of Employment
Disputes of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). 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. You and the Company must mutually agree on the arbitrator. If the
parties cannot agree on the arbitrator after their best efforts, an arbitrator from the American Arbitration Association will be selected pursuant to the American Arbitration Association National Rules for Resolution of Employment Disputes. 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 the
Federal Arbitration Act. 
  
 (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. The arbitrator shall allow reasonable discovery, but shall control the amount and scope of discovery. 
  
 (g) The provisions of this Section 7 shall survive
the expiration or termination of the Agreement, and shall be binding upon the parties. 
  
 THE PARTIES HAVE READ SECTION 7 AND IRREVOCABLY AGREE TO ARBITRATE ANY DISPUTE IDENTIFIED ABOVE. 
  
                      (Optionee)

  
 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the undersigned have executed this
Agreement as of the Effective Date.

 4Amendment to Employment Agreement

 Exhibit 10.1 
  
 AMENDMENT TO EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT 
  
 This agreement (the “Amendment”) between Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.
(“AMD”), and you, Hector Ruiz, is made as of October 27, 2005 and shall be effective as of July 1, 2005 (the “Amendment Effective Date”) and, to the extent provided herein, amends the
Employment Agreement between Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. and you dated January 31, 2002 as amended effective January 1, 2005 (the “Employment Agreement”) governing your service with AMD. 
  
 You and AMD agree to the following amendments to the Employment Agreement:

  
 1. A new Section 4(c) is hereby added to the
Employment Agreement to read in its entirety as follows: 
  
 (c)
You shall be eligible to participate in the 2005 AMD Long Term Incentive Plan (the “LTIP”) or in a replacement plan adopted by the Board during each fiscal year throughout the term of your employment. The target incentive
opportunity for your participation under the LTIP shall be an amount equal to two hundred percent (200%) of your Annual Base Salary, with a maximum incentive opportunity under such LTIP not to exceed four hundred percent (400%) of your
Annual Base Salary. You shall continue to be eligible for monthly transition participation in AMD’s long term incentive plans in effect for the three-year award cycles ending 2004, 2005 and 2006, and twenty-five percent (25%) (or such
lower percentage of any cash award as may be determined by AMD’s Compensation Committee) of any award paid to you for such cycles shall be paid in restricted stock issued under the AMD 2004 Equity Incentive Plan. The restrictions on any such
awards of restricted stock shall lapse over a two (2) year period, with the restrictions on 25% of the shares subject thereto lapsing on each six (6) month anniversary of the grant date. 
  
 2. Section 4(d) of the Employment Agreement is hereby amended to
read in its entirety as follows: 
  
 (d) The aggregate amount
payable to you under Section 4(a) and Section 4(c) in each fiscal year shall not be greater than $5,000,000 or such higher amount as may be permitted under the 1996 Executive Incentive Plan or deductible by the Company for Federal income
tax purposes for such fiscal year; provided, however, that until such time as such 1996 Executive Incentive Plan is amended to increase its $5,000,000 limit to an amount that AMD’s Compensation Committee determines in its sole discretion will
permit amounts paid to you under Sections 4(a) and (c) to be deductible for Federal income tax purposes, any non-deductible amounts that would otherwise be payable under Sections 4(a) and 4(c) that would exceed the maximum bonus payable in any
such fiscal year, if any, (the “Excess Bonus”) shall be carried over (on a “first-in, first-out” basis) and shall be added to the aggregate Annual Bonus and LTIP payments (if any) payable for any of the next three
(3) fiscal years, whether or not any one or more of such fiscal years ends before or after the end of the Employment Period; and provided further that the Excess Bonus, or portion thereof, may not cause the Annual Bonus and/or the LTIP payments
payable in any fiscal year to exceed $5,000,000 or such higher amount as may be permitted under the 1996 Executive Incentive Plan in such fiscal year.

 3. Section 10(a)(i)(A) of the Employment Agreement is hereby amended to read in its entirety
as follows: 
  
 (A) the amount equal to the sum of (x) the
product of (i) two multiplied by (II) your Annual Base Salary plus (y) the sum of the highest (i) Annual Bonus, (ii) Additional Bonus, and (iii) LTIP payment paid to you (measured, with respect to LTIP payments made in the
form of AMD’s Common Stock, using the closing price of AMD’s Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange as reported in the Wall Street Journal on the date on which the amount of such AMD Common Stock to be delivered to you was finally
determined by AMD’s Compensation Committee) for any of the three (3) years prior to the Date of Termination (this sum of the Annual Bonus, Additional Bonus and LTIP payment shall not exceed $5,000,000 in the aggregate and shall be referred
to as the “Recent Annual Bonus”)(including as paid for this purpose any compensation earned but deferred, whether or not at your election); 
  
 4. Section 10(a)(i)(C) of the Employment Agreement is hereby amended to read in its entirety as follows: 
  
 (C) a pro-rata portion (based on your months of service during each
applicable outstanding award cycle under the LTIP or any prior long term incentive plan) of any payments that you would have received under the LTIP or any other such plan for each award cycle in which you are a participant and had you remained
Chief Executive Officer through the last day of such award cycle without regard to your not being employed on such date; provided, however, that any determination of the amount of payments to which you are entitled under this subsection
(C) shall be made solely with reference to Company performance through the end of the calendar quarter that immediately precedes the Date of Termination and in the case of distributions under the LTIP, payment shall be made by distribution of
unrestricted shares of AMD Common Stock pursuant to the restricted stock unit award granted to you under the LTIP; and provided further that all payments shall be made as soon as practicable (but in no event more than 45 days) following the Date of
Termination; and 
  
 5. No Other Changes. Except as
provided in this Amendment to the Employment Agreement, the Employment Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.
