<FONT SIZE="2">
On October 25, 2006, the board of directors of Ashworth, Inc. (the "Company") appointed Peter Holmberg as Executive Vice President of Green Grass Sales and Merchandising.  In connection with such appointment, the Company and Mr. Holmberg entered into the Amended and Restated Employment Agreement (the "Employment Agreement"), effective as of October 25, 2006.  Under the Employment Agreement, Mr. Holmberg shall receive an annual base salary of $225,000 and is eligible to earn an annual bonus up to a maximum of 40% of his annual base salary based and conditioned on the Company&#x2019;s achievement of certain financial targets.  Mr. Holmberg shall, among other things, also receive an automobile allowance of $1,000 per month.  <br><br>	If Mr. Holmberg is terminated within two years of the effective date of the Employment Agreement as a result of a Qualifying Termination (as defined in the Employment Agreement) and if Mr. Holmberg delivers and does not revoke a fully executed release and waiver of all claims against the Company, then the Company shall pay Mr. Holmberg the equivalent of 12 months of his then-current annual base salary, which is in lieu of any other severance payment benefits that otherwise may at that time be available under the Company&#x2019;s applicable policies; provided, however, that the Employment Agreement is not intended to modify or supersede the change in control agreement between the Company and Mr. Holmberg.  <br><br>	The foregoing description of the Employment Agreement is qualified in its entirety by the terms of such agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.<br>

<P align="center" style="font-size: 12pt"><B>AMENDED &#038; RESTATED EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT</B>



<P align="left" style="font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 4%">This Amended &#038; Restated Employment Agreement (this &#147;Agreement&#148;) is effective as of October&nbsp;25,
2006 (the &#147;Effective Date&#148;), and is entered into by and between Peter Holmberg (&#147;Holmberg&#148;) and
Ashworth, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the &#147;Company&#148;).


<P align="left" style="font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 4%">1.&nbsp;<U><B>Employment</B></U>. As of the Effective Date, the Company hereby employs Holmberg to serve
in the capacity of Executive Vice President of Green Grass Sales and Merchandising (&#147;EVP-GGS
&#038;&nbsp;M&#148;), reporting to the President. The Company&#146;s President, Board of Directors (the &#147;Board&#148;), the
Office of The Chairman (the &#147;OC&#148;) and/or CEO may provide such additional designations of title to
Holmberg as may be deemed appropriate in its discretion.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 4%">Holmberg agrees to perform the executive duties and functions customarily associated with the
office of EVP-GGS &#038; M and as specified from time to time by the President, Board, OC and/or CEO.
Except for legal holidays, vacations and absences due to temporary illness, Holmberg shall devote
his time, attention and energies to the business of the Company on a full-time basis. Holmberg
represents and warrants to the Company that he is under no restriction, limitation or other
prohibition to perform his duties as described herein.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 4%">2.&nbsp;<U><B>Release</B></U>. Holmberg voluntarily accepts this position, together with an increase to
his prior annual base salary in the amount of twenty-two thousand five hundred dollars
($22,500.00); thus, Holmberg&#146;s annual salary shall now be two hundred twenty-five thousand dollars
($225,000.00). Holmberg acknowledges and agrees that his current compensation is not being
adversely modified in any material respect without his effective consent and that his authority or
duties are not being materially changed without his effective consent. Holmberg also acknowledges
that there is no diminution or adverse modification to his title, status, overall position or
responsibilities.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 4%">In consideration of the aforementioned, Holmberg fully and forever releases and discharges the
Company from, and covenants not to sue or otherwise institute or cause to be instituted any legal
or administrative proceedings against the Company with respect to, any matter arising out of or
relating to this change in compensation and title and responsibilities or any acts of the Company,
including, without limitation, any claims and causes of action against the Company which relate to
conduct occurring before and up to the date this Agreement is executed. Moreover, Holmberg hereby
releases, acquits, and discharges the Company, and each of its agents, predecessors and/or
successors in interest from any and all rights, actions, claims, demands, costs, contracts,
allegations, liabilities, obligations, damages and causes of action, whether known, suspected or
unknown, which Holmberg had or now has or may claim to have had by reason of any act or omission
from the beginning of time through and including the date of this Agreement.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 4%">In addition, and in further consideration of the foregoing, Holmberg hereby agrees that
nothing contained in this Agreement shall constitute or be treated as an admission of liability or
wrongdoing by the Company, which liability the Company expressly denies.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 4%">Holmberg further represents that he has neither filed any claims, charges, complaints or
actions against the Company, nor has he assigned any charges, complaints, claims or actions against
the Company.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 4%">3.&nbsp;<U><B>Employment Compensation and Benefits</B></U>.



<P align="left" style="margin-left:4%; font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 4%">a. <U>Base Salary</U>. Holmberg&#146;s base salary (&#147;Base Salary&#148;) shall be at the annual
rate of two hundred twenty-five thousand dollars ($225,000.00). The Board&#146;s Compensation
and Human Resources Committee shall annually review Holmberg&#146;s salary for possible
adjustment based on his performance and the Company&#146;s financial success and progress.



<P align="left" style="margin-left:4%; font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 4%">b. <U>Annual Bonus</U>. Holmberg will be <U>eligible</U> to earn an annual bonus up
to a maximum of 40% of Base Salary based and conditioned on the Company&#146;s achievement of
certain financial targets as annually specified on or about the beginning of the new fiscal
year and Holmberg&#146;s continued employment on the payment date. The annual bonus, if any,
will be paid following the close of final accounting records for the previous fiscal year.



<P align="left" style="margin-left:4%; font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 4%">c. <U>Automobile Allowance</U>. The Company shall pay Holmberg an automobile expense
allowance of one thousand dollars ($1,000) per month to defray the cost of business related
automobile expense.



<P align="left" style="margin-left:4%; font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 4%">d. <U>Vacation</U>. Holmberg shall be entitled to annual vacations in a manner
commensurate with his service tenure with the Company and the Company&#146;s vacation policies in
effect during the term of this Agreement.



<P align="left" style="margin-left:4%; font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 4%">e. <U>Expense Reimbursement</U>. The Company shall reimburse Holmberg for all
reasonable amounts actually expended by Holmberg in the course of performing his duties for
the Company and in accordance with all Company-established guidelines where Holmberg tenders
receipts or other documentation reasonably substantiating the amounts as required by the
Company.



<P align="left" style="margin-left:4%; font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 4%">f. <U>Other Benefits</U>. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, Holmberg
shall be entitled to receive all of the rights, benefits and privileges of an executive
officer of the Company under any retirement, pension, profit-sharing, group medical
insurance, group dental insurance, group-term life insurance, disability insurance and other
employee benefit plans which may be now in effect or hereafter adopted.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 4%">4.&nbsp;<U><B>Non-Compete</B></U>. Holmberg agrees that during the term of this Agreement he will not,
directly or indirectly, own, manage, operate, control, be employed by, consult for, participate in,
or be connected in any manner with the ownership, management, operation, or control of any business
which designs, manufactures or sells golf-inspired sportswear and which is distributed in one or
more of the same channels of distribution as the then current channels of distribution of the
Company; <U>provided</U>, <U>however</U>, that if Holmberg&#146;s employment is terminated for reasons
which provide for severance compensation, the non-compete term shall be extended to the period for
which he receives such severance compensation.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 4%">5.&nbsp;<U><B>Termination</B></U>.



<P align="left" style="margin-left:4%; font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 4%">a. <U>At Will</U>. The Company shall employ Holmberg at will, and either Holmberg or
the Company may terminate Holmberg&#146;s employment with the Company at any time and for any
reason, with or without cause.



<P align="left" style="margin-left:4%; font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 4%">b. <U>Severance Payment and Benefits</U>. If Holmberg&#146;s employment is terminated
within two (2)&nbsp;years of the effective date of this Agreement as a result of a Qualifying
Termination, as defined below, and if Holmberg delivers and does not revoke a fully executed
release and waiver of all claims against the Company in the form attached hereto as
Exhibit&nbsp;A (the &#147;Release Agreement&#148;), then, upon expiration of any applicable revocation
period contained in the Release Agreement, the Company shall pay or provide Holmberg the
following severance payment and benefits:



<P align="left" style="margin-left:8%; font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 4%">i. Holmberg shall receive the equivalent of twelve&nbsp;(12) months of his
then-current Base Salary (the &#147;Severance Payment&#148;), which shall be payable in equal
monthly installments beginning on the first day of the first full month following
Holmberg&#146;s Qualifying Termination and continuing on the first day of each month
thereafter until fully paid. The Severance Payment is in lieu of any and all other
severance payment benefits which otherwise may at that time be available under the
Company&#146;s applicable policies; <U>provided</U>, <U>however</U>, that nothing in
this Agreement is intended to modify or supersede the Agreement re: Change In
Control entered into between Holmberg and the Company as of September&nbsp;16, 2005, and
as thereafter amended, and Holmberg shall be entitled to receive whatever additional
severance pay benefits, if any, for which he may qualify according and subject to
the terms and conditions of his Agreement re: Change In Control with the Company.



<P align="left" style="margin-left:8%; font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 4%">ii. For the twelve-month period following a Qualifying Termination of his
employment, Holmberg, upon exercising his rights under COBRA, shall be entitled, at
the Company&#146;s expense, to continue participation in the following Executive Benefit
Programs which had been made available to him and his family before the Qualifying
Termination: group medical insurance and group dental insurance. The programs shall
be continued in substantially the same way and at the same level as immediately
prior to the Qualifying Termination, except as the same may be modified for all
executive officers of the Company. Holmberg&#146;s participation in each of such
Executive Benefit Programs shall be earlier terminated or reduced, as applicable, if
and to the extent Holmberg receives benefits as a result of concurrent coverage
through another program.



<P align="left" style="margin-left:4%; font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 4%">c. <U>Qualifying Termination</U>. Holmberg&#146;s termination shall be considered a
&#147;Qualifying Termination&#148; unless:



<P align="left" style="margin-left:8%; font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 4%">i. Holmberg voluntarily terminates his employment with the Company or its
affiliated companies.



<P align="left" style="margin-left:8%; font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 4%">ii. The termination is on account of Holmberg&#146;s death or Disability. For such
purposes, &#147;Disability&#148; shall mean a physical or mental incapacity as a result of
which Holmberg becomes unable to continue the performance of his responsibilities
for the Company and its affiliated companies for a period of six&nbsp;(6) months.



<P align="left" style="margin-left:8%; font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 4%">iii. Holmberg is involuntarily terminated for &#147;Cause.&#148; For this purpose,
&#147;Cause&#148; shall mean:

employment for any reason whatsoever, Holmberg shall promptly deliver to the Company all
Company property, including, but not limited to, documents, data, and other information
pertaining to Confidential Information, as defined below. Holmberg shall not take with him
any documents or other information, or any reproduction, summary or excerpt thereof,
electronic or otherwise, containing or pertaining to any Confidential Information.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 4%">6.&nbsp;<U><B>Nondisclosure of Confidential Information</B></U>. Holmberg acknowledges that during the
term of his employment with the Company, he will have access to and become acquainted with
information of a confidential, proprietary or secret nature which is or may be either applicable
to, or related in any way to, the present or future business of the Company, the research and
development or investigation of the Company, or the business of any customer of the Company
(collectively, &#147;Confidential Information&#148;). For example, Confidential Information includes, but is
not limited to, devices, secret inventions, processes and compilations of information, records,
specifications, designs, plans, proposals, software, codes, marketing and sales programs, financial
projections, cost summaries, pricing formula, and all concepts or ideas, materials or information
related to the business, products or sales of the Company and its customers and vendors. Holmberg
shall not disclose any of Confidential Information, directly or indirectly, or use them in any way,
either during the term of this Agreement or at any time thereafter, except as required in the
course of employment with the Company. Holmberg also agrees to comply with the Company&#146;s policies
and regulations, as established from time to time for the protection of its Confidential
Information, including, for example, executing the Company&#146;s standard confidentiality agreements.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 4%">7.&nbsp;<U><B>Non-Solicitation</B></U>. Holmberg agrees that so long as he is employed by the Company
and for a period of two&nbsp;(2) years after termination of his employment for any reason, he shall not
(a)&nbsp;directly or indirectly solicit, induce or attempt to solicit or induce any Company employee,
sales representative or consultant to discontinue his or her employment, sales representation or
consultancy with or for the Company; (b)&nbsp;usurp any opportunity of the Company of which Holmberg
became aware during his tenure at the Company or which is made available to him on the basis of the
belief that Holmberg is still employed by the Company; or (c)&nbsp;directly or indirectly solicit or
induce or attempt to influence any person or business that is an account, customer or client of the
Company to reduce, restrict or cancel the business of any such account, customer or client with the
Company.

<P align="left" style="margin-left:4%; font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 4%">a. This Agreement is personal to Holmberg and shall not be assignable by Holmberg.
This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and shall be binding upon Holmberg&#146;s legal
representatives and heirs.



<P align="left" style="margin-left:4%; font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 4%">b. The rights and obligations of the Company under this Agreement shall inure to the
benefit of and shall be binding upon the successors and assigns of the Company.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 4%">9.&nbsp;<U><B>Governing Law</B></U>. This Agreement is made and entered into in the State of California,
and the internal laws of California shall govern its validity and interpretation in the performance
by the parties hereto of their respective duties and obligations hereunder.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 4%">10.&nbsp;<U><B>Modifications</B></U>. This Agreement may be amended or modified only by an instrument in
writing executed by both of the parties hereto.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 4%">11.&nbsp;<U><B>Entire Agreement</B></U>. Except as otherwise set forth herein, this Agreement, together
with the exhibit attached hereto, supersedes any and all prior written or oral agreements between
Holmberg and the Company, and contains the entire understanding of the parties hereto with respect
to the terms and conditions of Holmberg&#146;s employment with the Company; provided, however, that this
Agreement is not intended to supersede the Agreement re: Change In Control between Holmberg and the
Company, which they entered into as of September&nbsp;16, 2005 and as thereafter amended, or any
agreements which Holmberg may previously have entered into regarding the protection of trade
secrets and confidential information.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 4%">12.&nbsp;<U><B>Dispute Resolution</B></U>. Holmberg and the Company will utilize a system of binding
arbitration to resolve all disputes that may arise out of the employment context or this Agreement.
Both the Company and Holmberg agree that any claim, dispute, and/or controversy that either
Holmberg may have against the Company (or its owners, directors, officers, managers, employees,
agents, and parties affiliated with its employee benefit and health plans) or the Company may have
against Holmberg, arising from, related to, or having any relationship or connection whatsoever
arising out of this Agreement or with Holmberg&#146;s seeking employment with, employment by, or other
association with the Company, shall be submitted to and determined exclusively by binding
arbitration under the Federal Arbitration Act, in conformity with the procedures of the California
Arbitration Act (Cal. Code Civ. Proc. sec&nbsp;1280 et seq., including Section&nbsp;1283.05 and all of the
Act&#146;s other mandatory and permissive rights to discovery). Included within the scope of this
Agreement are all disputes, whether based on tort, contract, statute (including, but not limited
to, any claims of discrimination and harassment, whether they be based on the California Fair
Employment and Housing Act, Title&nbsp;VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended, or any other
state or federal law or regulation), equitable law, or otherwise. However, nothing herein shall
prevent Holmberg from filing and pursuing proceedings before the California Department of Fair
Employment and Housing, or the United States Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (although if
Holmberg chooses to pursue a claim following the exhaustion of such administrative remedies, that
claim would be subject to the provisions of this Agreement). In addition to any other requirements
imposed by law, the arbitrator selected shall be a retired California Superior Court Judge and
shall be subject to disqualification on the same grounds as would apply to a judge of such court.
To the extent applicable in civil actions in California courts, the following shall apply and be
observed: all rules of pleading (including the right of demurrer), all rules of evidence, and all
rights to resolution of the dispute by means of motions for summary judgment, judgment on the
pleadings, and judgment under Code of Civil Procedure Section&nbsp;631.8. Resolution of the dispute
shall be based solely upon the law governing the claims and defenses pleaded, and the arbitrator
may not invoke any basis (including but not limited to, notions of &#147;just cause&#148;) other than such
controlling law. The arbitrator shall have the immunity of a judicial officer from civil liability
when acting in the capacity of an arbitrator, which immunity supplements any other existing
immunity. Likewise, all communications during or in connection with the arbitration proceedings
are privileged in accordance with Cal. Civil Code Section&nbsp;47(b). As reasonably required to allow
full use and benefit of this Agreement&#146;s modification to the Act&#146;s procedures, the arbitrator shall
extend the times set by the Act for the giving of notices and setting of hearings. Awards shall
include the arbitrator&#146;s written reasoned opinion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties
acknowledge and agree that this provision shall not preclude either party from requesting temporary
and/or preliminary injunctive relief to enforce Sections&nbsp;4, 6 or 7 of this Agreement until such
time as an arbitrator can assume jurisdiction and render a decision over any such claims or
requests.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 4%">13.&nbsp;<U><B>Notices</B></U>. Any notice or communications required or permitted to be given to the
parties hereto shall be delivered personally or be sent by United States registered or certified
mail, postage prepaid and return receipt requested, and addressed or delivered as follows, or at
such other addresses the party addressed may have substituted by notice pursuant to this Section:

<P align="left" style="font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 4%">I, Peter Holmberg, hereby enter into this Release Agreement (this &#147;Agreement&#148;), pursuant to
Paragraph&nbsp;4(b) of my Employment Agreement with Ashworth, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
&#147;Company&#148;), in consideration for which the Company shall make the Severance Payment as described in
my Amended &#038; Restated Employment Agreement entered into effective as of October&nbsp;25, 2006
(&#147;Employment Agreement&#148;).


<P align="left" style="font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 4%">1.&nbsp;The date of my Qualifying Termination is <U>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</U>, and I have received a final
paycheck for all wages due, including all accrued vacation, through that date. Other than the
Severance Payment and continued participation, at the Company&#146;s expense, in the designated
Executive Benefit Programs (each as described in my Employment Agreement) and whatever additional
severance pay benefits, if any, for which I may qualify according and subject to the terms and
conditions of my Agreement re: Change in Control with the Company, the foregoing payments and
benefits are the only amounts which I am entitled to receive from the Company, and I hereby waive
any and all other payments and claims for payments.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 4%">2.&nbsp;As consideration for the Severance Payment and benefits as described in my Employment
Agreement, I hereby release the Company, its successors, affiliates, directors, employees and
agents (past, present and future) from any and all claims or lawsuits (including but not limited to
any and all claims or demands relating to salary, wages, bonuses, commissions, stock, stock
options, vacation pay, fringe benefits, expense reimbursements, any and all tort claims, contract
claims (express or implied), wrongful termination claims, public policy claims, whistleblower
claims, implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing claims, retaliation claims, personal injury
claims, emotional distress claims, invasion of privacy claims, defamation claims, fraud claims,
attorneys&#146; fees claims, all claims arising under any federal, state or other governmental statue,
law, regulation or ordinance including, but not limited to, Title&nbsp;VII of the Civil Rights Act of
1964, as amended, the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Family and Medical Leave Act, the
California Fair Employment &#038; Housing Act, the California Labor Code, the Age Discrimination in
Employment Act of 1967 (&#147;ADEA&#148;), the Older Workers&#146; Benefit Protection Act (&#147;OWBPA&#148;)) which I may
have based either on my employment, my termination, or any other event occurring prior to the date
of this Agreement. This Agreement is intended to settle any and all claims that I may have against
the Company. Accordingly, I waive any and all rights conferred under Section&nbsp;1542 of the
California Civil Code, which provides: &#147;<B>A general release does not extend to claims which the
creditor does not know or suspect to exist in his favor at the time of executing the release which
if known by him must have materially affected his settlement with the debtor</B>.&#148;


<P align="left" style="font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 4%">3.&nbsp;I acknowledge and understand my continuing obligation (a)&nbsp;to maintain the confidentiality
of the Company&#146;s trade secrets, confidential and proprietary information, and (b)&nbsp;not to solicit
the Company&#146;s customers, employees and others as set forth in Sections&nbsp;4, 6 and 7 of my Employment
Agreement. I also warrant and represent that I have returned all Company materials as required in
Section&nbsp;5(d) of my Employment Agreement.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 4%">4.&nbsp;I acknowledge that I fully understand my right to discuss this Agreement with an attorney,
and I have carefully read and fully understand this entire Agreement, and I am entering into this
Agreement voluntarily.


<P align="left" style="font-size: 12pt; text-indent: 4%">5.&nbsp;I understand that I shall have twenty-one&nbsp;(21) days from the date of receipt of this
Agreement to consider this Agreement, I shall have seven&nbsp;(7) days following the signing of this
Agreement to revoke it in writing, and this Agreement shall not be effective or enforceable until
this revocation period has expired.
