Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

On August 13 and 14, 2015, Callaway Golf Company (the “Company”) entered into exchange agreements with holders of $67,595,000 in aggregate principal amount of the Company’s 3.75% Convertible Senior Notes due August 15, 2019. Pursuant to the exchange agreements, the holders will transfer the notes to the Company and the Company will deliver to the holders a total of 9,012,665 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”), and make cash payments to the holders representing an exchange inducement and accrued and unpaid interest through the closing date of the exchange transactions. The notes, which are currently convertible into 9,012,665 shares of Common Stock, will be retired upon completion of the exchange transactions. The exchange transactions are expected to close on or about August 17 and 18, 2015.

The issuance of Common Stock in the exchange transactions will be made pursuant to the exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, provided by Section 4(a)(2) thereof, on the basis that the exchange did not involve any public offering.

This current report on Form 8-K does not constitute an offer to exchange the notes or other securities of the Company for Common Stock or other securities of the Company.
