</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><U>Agreement as to Ashworth, Inc. Executive Employment Agreement with Randall L. Herrel, Sr.</U>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;In connection with certain Board and management changes (described below in Item&nbsp;8.01), on
September&nbsp;12, 2006, Ashworth, Inc. (the &#147;Company&#148;) and Randall L. Herrel, Sr., the Company&#146;s Chief
Executive Officer, entered into the Agreement as to Ashworth, Inc. Executive Employment Agreement
with Randall L. Herrel, Sr. (the &#147;Herrel Agreement&#148;), which amends and confirms certain
understandings regarding the Second Amended and Restated Executive Employment Agreement dated
February&nbsp;28, 2006 between the Company and Mr.&nbsp;Herrel (the &#147;Employment Agreement&#148;). The Herrel
Agreement provides for, among other matters, (1)&nbsp;Mr.&nbsp;Herrel&#146;s confirmation that he will no longer
be Chairman of the Board of Directors or President, and (2)&nbsp;continued service as Chief Executive
Officer until such service is scheduled to terminate automatically on October&nbsp;17, 2006, unless
earlier terminated pursuant to the Herrel Agreement. Concurrent with the Herrel Agreement, Mr.
Herrel submitted a letter of resignation (the &#147;Resignation Letter&#148;), which confirmed that Mr.
Herrel&#146;s resignation of all employment and Director positions effective October&nbsp;17, 2006 was not a
result of any material disagreement with the Company as to its operations, policies or practices.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If Mr.&nbsp;Herrel&#146;s employment terminates on October&nbsp;17, 2006 in accordance with the Resignation
Letter or if he resigns earlier for Constructive Discharge (as defined in the Herrel Agreement),
Mr.&nbsp;Herrel will receive (1)&nbsp;severance compensation in a cash amount equal to $629,349, (2)
immediate vesting of all outstanding stock options upon termination, which will remain exercisable
for two years after the date of termination, <U>provided</U>, <U>however</U>, that no option can
be exercised beyond its original expiration date, (3)&nbsp;certain employee and other benefits for one
year after the date of termination, including medical, dental, life and disability insurance, an
automobile allowance of $1,250 per month, monthly dues for a country club membership (but not for
any special assessments), and an Ashworth <SUP style="font-size: 85%; vertical-align: text-top">&#174;</SUP> clothing allowance up to $100 per month, and (4)
reimbursement for accrued but unpaid vacation and out-of-pocket business expenses reimbursable
under the Employment Agreement.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If Mr.&nbsp;Herrel is terminated without Cause (as defined in the Herrel Agreement) or by death or
disability prior to October&nbsp;17, 2006, then Mr.&nbsp;Herrel will receive (1)&nbsp;severance compensation in a
cash amount equal to $608,973 plus $582 per each calendar day that Mr.&nbsp;Herrel is employed by the
Company after September&nbsp;12, 2006 (including weekends and holidays) until the date of his
termination, (2)&nbsp;immediate vesting of all outstanding stock options upon termination, which will
remain exercisable for two years after the date of termination, <U>provided</U>, <U>however</U>,
that no option can be exercised beyond its original expiration date, (3)&nbsp;certain employee and other
benefits for one year after the date of termination, including medical, dental, life and disability
insurance, an automobile allowance of $1,250 per month, monthly dues for a country club membership
(but not for any special assessments), and an Ashworth clothing allowance up to $100 per month, and
(4)&nbsp;reimbursement for accrued but unpaid vacation and out-of-pocket business expenses reimbursable
under the Employment Agreement.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If Mr.&nbsp;Herrel is terminated prior to October&nbsp;17, 2006, either for Cause by the Company or
because Mr.&nbsp;Herrel resigns earlier for any reason other than Constructive Discharge (as defined in
the Herrel Agreement), then the amount (if any) of severance compensation and benefits shall be
determined in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Employment Agreement.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;A copy of the Herrel Agreement is filed herewith as Exhibit&nbsp;10.1 and is incorporated herein by

Board (described below in Item&nbsp;8.01) and in recognition of the time commitment associated with this
position, Mr.&nbsp;Hayes will receive aggregate cash compensation for all services as Chairman of the

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 12pt"><U>Agreement with Peter M. Weil</U>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Concurrent with his appointment to the Office of the Chairman (described below in Item&nbsp;8.01),
Peter M. Weil, who is currently a Director of the Board, entered into an agreement with the Company
whereby Mr.&nbsp;Weil will provide expertise and counsel on corporate management and operations and
decision-making within the Office of the Chairman (the &#147;Weil Agreement&#148;) on an at-will basis. All
assignments under the Weil Agreement must be approved by mutual agreement of Mr.&nbsp;Weil and either
the Chairman of the Board or the Board. In consideration of the essentially full-time commitments
associated with the duties under the Weil Agreement, as well as his continuing duties as Director,
Mr.&nbsp;Weil will receive a cash retainer of $30,000 per month and a non-qualified stock option grant
to purchase 25,000 shares with an exercise price equal to 100% of fair market value of the stock on
the grant date and vesting over a three-month period on a daily basis. If the Weil Agreement is
not terminated earlier, an option grant to purchase 25,000 shares with comparable terms and
conditions shall be made on each three-month anniversary of September&nbsp;12, 2006. Vesting shall
cease upon termination of the Weil Agreement, and the options will be exercisable for a period of
five years after the grant date. The options granted pursuant to the Weil Agreement are in
addition to, and not in lieu of, options grants to Mr.&nbsp;Weil for his continuing service on the
Board. Mr.&nbsp;Weil will not receive a separate cash retainer or per Board meeting fees for his
continuing service as Director of the Board. Provided that he submits verification of expenses as
the Company may reasonably require, Mr.&nbsp;Weil shall be reimbursed for reasonable out-of-pocket
expenses incurred in connection with the performance of his services under the Weil Agreement.

<DIV align="center" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 18pt"><B>PETER WEIL AGREEMENT</B>
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B>THIS AGREEMENT</B>, dated as of September&nbsp;12, 2006, is between ASHWORTH, INC., a Delaware
corporation and its successors or assignees (&#147;Ashworth&#148;) and PETER M. WEIL, an individual (&#147;Mr.
Weil&#148;).
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B>1.&nbsp;ENGAGEMENT OF SERVICES. </B>Ashworth is engaging the services, advice, expertise and counsel
of Mr.&nbsp;Weil on subjects of corporate management and operations and decision-making within the
Office of the Chairman. Subject to the terms of this Agreement, Mr.&nbsp;Weil will, to the best of his
ability, render these duties which, during the term of this Agreement, will essentially require Mr.
Weil&#146;s full-time attention. All assignments to Mr.&nbsp;Weil must be approved by mutual agreement of
Mr.&nbsp;Weil and either the Chairman of the Ashworth Board or the Ashworth Board of Directors (the
&#147;Board&#148;) itself, and the scope of Mr.&nbsp;Weil&#146;s authority and services with respect to such
assignments will be similarly determined by mutual agreement. Mr.&nbsp;Weil agrees to serve as a member
of Ashworth&#146;s Office of the Chairman, which reports directly to the Chairman of the Board of
Directors of the Company. Mr.&nbsp;Weil&#146;s engagement hereunder is at will, and nothing in this
Agreement shall confer any right with respect to the continuation of Mr.&nbsp;Weil&#146;s engagement by
Ashworth. Ashworth will make its employees, facilities and equipment reasonably available to Mr.
Weil in order for him to perform his duties under this Agreement. Mr.&nbsp;Weil may not subcontract or
otherwise delegate his obligations under this Agreement without Ashworth&#146;s prior written consent.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B>2.&nbsp;COMPENSATION. </B>In view of the time commitments associated with his duties under this
Agreement as well as his continuing duties a Director on the Board, and until further action of the
Board, Mr.&nbsp;Weil shall be compensated for all services under this Agreement and as a Director for
the duration of service under this Agreement with an aggregate cash retainer of $30,000 per month
(or pro rata portion of each month, as relevant), payable at the end of each month of service. In
this regard and during the term of this Agreement, Mr.&nbsp;Weil shall not receive a separate cash
retainer or per Board Meeting fees for his continuing service as a Director of the Board.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;As additional compensation, Ashworth hereby grants to Mr.&nbsp;Weil a non-qualified stock option
grant covering 25,000 shares of Ashworth&#146;s common stock, with an exercise price equal to 100% of
fair market value of the common stock on the date of grant. The foregoing option shall vest over a
three-month period on a daily basis (inclusive of week-ends and holidays). Vesting shall cease
upon termination of this Agreement, for any reason, and the option shall remain exercisable for a
period of five (5)&nbsp;years after the date of grant. The foregoing option grant, and any future
grants made pursuant to this Section&nbsp;2, are in addition to, and not in lieu of, any and all stock
option grants to Mr.&nbsp;Weil for his continuing service on the Board.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;If this Agreement is not terminated earlier, a comparable stock option grant covering 25,000
shares of common stock shall be made on each three-month anniversary of the Effective Date with
comparable terms and conditions.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Mr.&nbsp;Weil will promptly be reimbursed for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in
connection with the performance of services under this Agreement provided Mr.&nbsp;Weil submits

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">verification of such expenses as Ashworth may reasonably require. Upon termination of this
Agreement for any reason, Mr.&nbsp;Weil will be paid fees and expenses earned or accrued through the
date of termination.
</DIV>


<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<B>3.&nbsp;INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR RELATIONSHIP. </B>Mr.&nbsp;Weil&#146;s relationship with Ashworth will be that of
an independent contractor and nothing in this Agreement should be construed to create a
partnership, joint venture, or employer-employee relationship. Mr.&nbsp;Weil will not be entitled to
any of the benefits that Ashworth may make available to its employees, such as group insurance,
profit-sharing or retirement benefits. Mr.&nbsp;Weil will be solely responsible for all tax returns and
payments required to be filed with or made to any federal, state or local tax authority with
respect to his performance of services and receipt of fees under this Agreement. Ashworth will
regularly report amounts paid to Mr.&nbsp;Weil by filing Form 1099-MISC with the Internal Revenue
Service as required by law. Because Mr.&nbsp;Weil is an independent contractor, Ashworth will not
withhold or make payments for social security; make unemployment insurance or disability insurance
contributions; or obtain worker&#146;s compensation insurance on Mr.&nbsp;Weil&#146;s behalf. Mr.&nbsp;Weil agrees to
accept exclusive liability for complying with all applicable state and federal laws governing
self-employed individuals, including obligations such as payment of taxes, social security,
disability and other contributions based on fees paid to Mr.&nbsp;Weil , his agents or employees under
this Agreement. Mr.&nbsp;Weil hereby agrees to indemnify and defend Ashworth against any and all such
taxes or contributions, including penalties and interest.

time of signing this Agreement (&#147;Prior Work Product&#148;) has been disclosed in writing to Ashworth and

obtain, and from time to time enforce, United States and foreign Proprietary Rights relating to
Ashworth Work Product in any and all countries. To that end Mr.&nbsp;Weil will execute, verify and
deliver such documents and perform such other acts (including appearances as a witness) as Ashworth
may reasonably request for use in applying for, obtaining, perfecting, evidencing, sustaining and
enforcing such Proprietary Rights and the assignment thereof. In addition, Mr.&nbsp;Weil will execute,
verify and deliver assignments of such Proprietary Rights to Ashworth or its designee. Mr.&nbsp;Weil&#146;s
obligation to assist Ashworth with respect to Proprietary Rights relating to such Ashworth Work
Product in any and all countries shall continue beyond the termination of this Agreement, but
Ashworth shall compensate Mr.&nbsp;Weil at a reasonable rate after such termination for the time

specified in the preceding <U>Sections&nbsp;4.8 and 4.9</U>, Mr.&nbsp;Weil hereby irrevocably designates and

preceding paragraph with the same legal force and effect as if executed by Mr.&nbsp;Weil. Mr.&nbsp;Weil

<DIV align="center" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 18pt"><B>ASHWORTH, INC. ANNOUNCES RESIGNATION OF CEO AND OTHER<BR>
ORGANIZATIONAL CHANGES</B>
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt"><B>CARLSBAD, Calif. &#151; September&nbsp;12, 2006 &#151; </B>Ashworth, Inc. (NASDAQ: ASHW), a leading designer of
golf-inspired lifestyle sportswear, today announced several Board of Directors and executive
officer changes to be fully implemented over the next five weeks.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">After ten years of service as Ashworth&#146;s CEO and six years as Chairman of the Board, Randall L.
Herrel Sr., today announced his resignation effective October&nbsp;17, 2006. During the interim Mr.
Herrel will work closely with the new Chairman of the Board to ensure a smooth, graceful transition
as the fiscal year comes to a close. A search for a new CEO will commence immediately.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Mr.&nbsp;Herrel commented, &#147;During the last 10&nbsp;years, Ashworth, Inc. has grown into a clear industry
leader in the design and marketing of golf-inspired lifestyle
sportswear. The Ashworth&#174; golf
shirt has been acknowledged for each of the past 10&nbsp;years as the most popular golf shirt brand in
the United States, combining classic design with performance. Other accomplishments include one of
the most successful apparel launches ever, as Ashworth and Callaway Golf Company aligned to
introduce new lines of Callaway Golf apparel in the US and Europe. Also noteworthy is the
successful acquisition of Ashworth East (Gekko Brands, LLC) which added headwear to the Company&#146;s
product line and expanded the Company&#146;s distribution channels and cross-selling opportunities.
These and other achievements have served our customers well and enabled the Company to develop its
global multi-brand, multi-channel growth strategy.&#148;
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company announced that James B. Hayes has been elected Chairman of the Board, effective
immediately. Mr.&nbsp;Hayes previously served as the Company&#146;s Lead Independent Director.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">The Company also announced that Gary I. (&#147;Sims&#148;) Schneiderman has today been named President of
Ashworth, Inc. Mr.&nbsp;Sims previously served as the Company&#146;s Executive Vice President of Sales,
Marketing and Customer Service and has over 20&nbsp;years of experience in the apparel industry.
</DIV>

<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">To assist in the executive transition process, the Company has created a new Office of the Chairman
which will report directly to the Chairman of the Board. The initial members of the Office of the
Chairman will be Mr.&nbsp;Herrel and Peter M. Weil, a current Director of the Company.
Upon Mr.&nbsp;Herrel&#146;s departure, Mr.&nbsp;Sims and Winston E. Hickman, the Company&#146;s Chief Financial
Officer, will become members of the Office of the Chairman. Mr.&nbsp;Weil has also entered into a
separate agreement with the Company to provide additional resources and expertise to the Company&#146;s
management team as it moves forward.

<DIV style="font-family: 'Times New Roman',Times,serif">



<DIV align="left" style="font-size: 10pt; margin-top: 6pt">Mr.&nbsp;Hayes noted, &#147;We believe the structural and organizational changes announced today will help
ensure a smooth transition as the Company maintains its focus on continued operational improvement
and enhanced financial results. Gary Sims is a proven executive with keen insights into our
business and industry, while Peter Weil&#146;s breadth of retail and apparel experience will be of great
value in his new role. We also greatly appreciate Randy Herrel&#146;s leadership over the last 10&nbsp;years
and congratulate him on his many noteworthy accomplishments in developing and implementing the
Company&#146;s strategic growth plan.&#148;
