Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

On August 31, 2007, David M. Meyer was appointed Chairman of the Board of Directors (the "Board") of Ashworth, Inc. (the "Company") upon the retirement as Chairman of James B. Hayes. Mr. Hayes will continue to serve as a Director of the Company.

In connection with the appointment of Mr. Meyer as the (non-executive) Chairman of the Board and in recognition of the time commitment associated with this position, in addition to the standard cash and equity-based compensation for all non-employee Directors, Mr. Meyer will receive an annual grant of stock options to purchase 100,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, vesting quarterly over a 12-month period, with an exercise price of 100% of fair market value on the date of grant. The date of this option grant shall be two business days after the Company's public earnings announcement for its third quarter of fiscal 2007. The standard compensation for all non-employee Directors includes (1) $30,000 in annual cash compensation plus $1,000 for in-person attendance and $500 for telephonic attendance at each Board meeting or Committee meeting that is not held in conjunction with a Board meeting, and (2) an option to purchase 10,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, vesting quarterly over a 12-month period. Mr. Meyer will also be eligible to receive restricted stock in an amount to be agreed in the future as part of an incentive plan, the metrics of which have not yet been determined, that is tied to the Company’s management incentive plan for fiscal 2008.

The Board also confirmed that Mr. Meyer’s stock options, as well as those of all the non-employee Directors, will vest immediately on or after a "Change in Control."
