PLEASE READ THESE RULES CAREFULLY TO ENSURE THAT YOU UNDERSTAND EACH PROVISION. SECTION 18 (BINDING ARBITRATION) CONTAINS A MANDATORY INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION AGREEMENT AND CLASS ACTION/JURY TRIAL WAIVER PROVISION THAT REQUIRE, WITH ONLY SPECIFIED EXCEPTIONS IN SECTION 18, THE EXCLUSIVE USE OF FINAL AND BINDING ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS ONLY TO RESOLVE DISPUTES, RATHER THAN JURY TRIALS OR CLASS, COLLECTIVE, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTIONS OR PROCEEDINGS.

17. GOVERNING LAW:

Except as otherwise set forth in Section 18, these Rules and your use of the Site will be governed by the laws of the State of California, as applied to contracts entered into between California residents and performed in California. Any disputes arising out of these Rules or your use of the Site will be heard only in the state or federal courts located in San Diego County, California, USA, and you hereby consent and submit to the personal jurisdiction of such courts. Notwithstanding the preceding sentences with respect to the substantive law, the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16) (“FAA”) governs the interpretation and enforcement of the Arbitration Agreement in Section 18 and preempts all state laws to the fullest extent permitted by law. If the FAA is determined to not apply to any issue that arises from or relates to the Arbitration Agreement, then that issue shall be resolved under and governed by the law of your state of residence.

18. BINDING ARBITRATION:

a. NOTICE: PLEASE READ THIS SECTION OF THESE RULES CAREFULLY. IT LIMITS CERTAIN RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHTS TO TRY CLAIMS IN COURT BEFORE A JUDGE OR JURY AND THE RIGHT TO BRING OR PARTICIPATE IN ANY CLASS, COLLECTIVE, OR REPRESENTATIVE CLAIM OR ACTION TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.

b. MANDATORY INFORMAL DISPUTE RESOLUTION: If you or Topgolf Callaway Brands have a Claim (defined below), you and Topgolf Callaway Brands agree to make a good faith effort to resolve it informally prior to initiating a formal arbitration proceeding. The party that intends to initiate an arbitration proceeding must first send a notice to the other party that describes the Claim. The notice must include the initiating party’s name and contact information (address, telephone number, and email address) and a detailed description of (1) the nature and basis of the Claim and (2) the nature and basis of the relief sought, with a detailed calculation. Your notice shall be sent by mail to 2180 Rutherford Rd., Carlsbad, CA 92008, Attn: Law Department. You must personally sign the notice. Topgolf Callaway Brands’ notice to you shall be sent to the most recent contact information we have on file for you. If requested by the party that receives the notice, the other party must personally participate in a telephone settlement conference (if a party is represented by counsel, counsel may also participate) to discuss the Claim. If the Claim is not resolved within sixty (60) days after receipt of the notice (which period can be extended by agreement of you and us), you or Topgolf Callaway Brands may commence an arbitration proceeding consistent with the process set forth below. Compliance with and completing this informal dispute resolution process is a condition precedent to filing a demand for arbitration. The statute of limitations and any filing fee deadlines for a formal arbitration proceeding shall be tolled while the parties engage in this informal dispute resolution process. If the sufficiency of a notice or compliance with this informal dispute resolution process is at issue, it may be decided by a court at either party’s election, and any arbitration proceeding shall be stayed pending resolution of the issue. A court of competent jurisdiction shall have the authority to enforce this condition precedent to arbitration, which includes the power to enjoin the filing or prosecution of a demand for arbitration.

c. AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE: If we are unable to resolve a Claim through the mandatory informal dispute resolution process, you and Topgolf Callaway Brands agree that, except as set forth below, all Claims between you and us will be resolved entirely through the binding individual arbitration process set forth in this Section to the maximum extent permitted by law. For purposes of this Section, “Topgolf Callaway Brands,” “we,” “our,” and “us” include Topgolf Callaway Brands and its employees, officers, directors, parents, agents, controlling persons, subsidiaries, affiliates, predecessors, acquired entities, successors, and assigns.

d. CLAIMS: “Claims” subject to this Section include all of the following: (1) claims relating to or arising out of these Rules or any prior or later versions of these Rules, as well as any changes to the terms of these Rules; (2) claims relating to or arising out of any aspect of any relationship between you and us; (3) claims relating to or arising out of your access of, use of the Site, or any transactions through, by, or using the Topgolf Callaway Brands Property, including receipt of any advertising, marketing, or other communications from Topgolf Callaway Brands; and (4) claims relating to the interpretation, scope, applicability, or enforceability of these Rules or this Section except as set forth in Section 18(b), Section 18(k), and Section 18(l). Except as provided below, (1) all claims and issues are subject to arbitration whether they are based in contract, tort, federal or state statute, constitution, regulation, or any other legal theory, or whether they seek legal or equitable remedies; (2) all claims are subject to arbitration whether they arose in the past, may currently exist, or may arise in the future; and (3) claims include claims or disputes that arose before the parties entered into these Rules or after termination of these Rules to the maximum extent permitted by law.

e. CLAIMS NOT COVERED BY ARBITRATION: Claims filed by you or by us in a small claims court are not subject to arbitration, so long as the dispute remains in such court and advances only an individual claim for relief. Claims filed by you or us in court to enjoin infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights are also not subject to arbitration. Section 18(k) set forth additional claims not subject to arbitration.

f. COMMENCING AN ARBITRATION: Except as set forth Section 18(l), unless the parties agree to select a different arbitration administrator, the arbitration shall be administered by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA“) as follows: under AAA’s Commercial Rules for commercial disputes and under AAA’s Consumer Arbitration Rules for consumers with non-commercial disputes, except as modified by this Section. AAA’s rules may be obtained from www.adr.org or 1-800-778-7879 (toll-free). If AAA is for any reason unable to serve and the parties are unable to agree on an alternative arbitration administrator, then a court of competent jurisdiction shall appoint an arbitration administrator. To commence an arbitration proceeding, you or Topgolf Callaway Brands must send a personally signed demand for arbitration that describes (1) the nature and basis of the Claim(s), and (2) the nature and basis of the relief sought, including a detailed calculation, along with a certification that you or we are party to this Section and completed the informal dispute resolution process referenced above. The notice shall include an original personal signature of the party seeking arbitration.  If represented by legal counsel, the notice shall also include an original personal signature of any legal counsel.  An original personal signature is intended to certify that the Claim is: (i) warranted by existing law; (ii) supported by good-faith factual and legal contentions; and (iii) not being brought for an improper purpose, including to increase the costs to litigate or harass the other party. The original personal signature by the party seeking arbitration shall also verify under penalty of perjury that the statements contained in the Claim are true and correct. Your notice shall be sent to 2180 Rutherford Rd., Carlsbad, CA 92008, Attn: Law Department. Topgolf Callaway Brands’ notice shall be sent to the most recent contact information we have on file for you. You or Topgolf Callaway Brands must also contact AAA or chosen arbitration administrator and follow its appropriate procedures to commence the arbitration.

g. ARBITRATION PROCEDURE:

i. Unless you and we agree otherwise in writing, the arbitration shall be decided by a single, neutral arbitrator, who shall be a retired judge or a lawyer with at least ten years of experience, selected in accordance with the chosen arbitration administrator’s rules.

ii. The arbitrator will decide the Claim or Claims in accordance with the terms these Rules and applicable substantive and procedural law, including the FAA, and applicable statutes of limitation. The arbitrator shall honor claims of privilege recognized at law. Except as provided in Section (k) below, the arbitrator may award damages or other relief (including injunctive relief) available to the individual claimant under applicable law.

iii. The parties may file such dispositive or other motions as would be permitted by the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure. Upon the filing of a motion, the arbitrator may stay all further actions and deadlines in the arbitration until deciding such motion is decided in the interest of arbitral economy and efficiency.

iv. If all Claims are for $10,000 or less, you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator, through a telephonic hearing, or by an in-person hearing in accordance with the arbitration administrator’s rules. You and a Topgolf Callaway Brands representative shall personally appear (with counsel if you and we are represented) at an initial telephone conference with a case manager before an arbitrator is appointed and at a hearing should one be scheduled by the arbitrator.

v. At your or our request, the arbitrator will issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based. The arbitrator shall not have authority to commit errors of law or legal reasoning. The arbitrator’s award shall be final and binding except that any party may appeal any award: (1) relating to a Claim for more than $100,000 or for injunctive relief; or (2) any award that is based on an error of law or legal reasoning, to a three-arbitrator panel appointed by the arbitration administrator, which will reconsider de novo any aspect of the appealed award. The panel’s decision will be final and binding. In either event, you or we may seek to have the award vacated or confirmed and entered as a judgment in any court having jurisdiction. If the arbitrator(s) find(s) that a party’s claim, counterclaim, or appeal is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose, the arbitrator shall award the opposing party its reasonable attorneys’ fees, costs, and expenses, including but not limited to any amounts charged by the arbitration administrator.

h. ARBITRATION COSTS: Payment of all filing, administration, and arbitrator fees will be governed by the applicable AAA rules as set forth above or, if a different arbitration administrator is selected, its rules. If you are a consumer with a non-commercial dispute, we will pay any filing, administration, or arbitrator fees the arbitration administrator requires you to pay if, in a writing signed by you: (1) you claim to be unable to afford it; and (2) you demonstrate that you sought, but were unable to obtain, a waiver of that fee from the arbitration administrator. To the extent allowed by applicable law and our agreements, the arbitrator may award arbitration costs and attorneys’ fees to the prevailing party.

i. JURY WAIVER AND LIMITATION OF RIGHTS: You and we agree that, by agreeing to arbitrate any Claims, the parties are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or a trial before a judge in court (except for matters that may be taken to a court pursuant to this Section). You and we acknowledge that arbitration will limit our legal rights, including the right to participate in a class action, the right to a jury trial, the right to conduct full discovery, and the right to appeal.

j. CLASS ACTION AND REPRESENTATIVE ACTION WAIVER: You and we agree that each may bring Claims against the other only in an individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class or representative proceeding. Further, unless mutually agreed to by you and us, the claims of two or more persons may not be joined, consolidated, or otherwise brought together in the same arbitration. The arbitrator shall have no authority to conduct any class, private attorney general or other representative proceeding to the maximum extent permitted by law. This Section 18(j) does not apply to requests for public injunctive relief, which are addressed in Section 18(k).

k. PUBLIC INJUNCTIVE RELIEF WAIVER: Neither you nor we will have the right to seek public injunctive relief as a remedy for any Claim against one another (a “Public Injunctive Relief Request”) in arbitration, if such a waiver is permitted by the FAA. If such a waiver is deemed unenforceable, you and we agree that the Public Injunctive Relief Request shall be severed from any other Claims and/or remedies you have. The Public Injunctive Relief Request must be adjudicated by a court after all your other Claims to be decided in arbitration under this Section are resolved in arbitration. The validity, enforceability, and effect of this Section 18(k) shall be determined exclusively by a court, and not by any arbitration administrator or arbitrator.

l. ADDITIONAL PROCEDURES FOR MASS ARBITRATION:

1. 1. If twenty-five (25) or more similar Claims of consumers with non-commercial disputes are asserted against Topgolf Callaway Brands by the same or coordinated counsel or are otherwise coordinated (and your Claim is one such claim), you understand and agree that the resolution of your Claim might be delayed. You also agree to the following process and application of the AAA Multiple Consumer Case Filing Fee Schedule and Supplementary Rules.
   2. Counsel for the claimants and counsel for Topgolf Callaway Brands shall each select ten (10) Claims (per side) to proceed first in individual arbitration proceedings as part of a bellwether process (the “Bellwether Process”). Each of the Claims subject to the Bellwether Process shall be assigned by AAA (or the arbitration administrator) to a different arbitrator chosen from its national roster. After ninety (90) days from the date all Claims subject to the Bellwether Process have been arbitrated and any appeals exhausted, any remaining Claims subject to this paragraph may be filed pursuant to the terms within this agreement.
   3. If the parties are unable to resolve the remaining Claims after the conclusion of the initial twenty (20) proceedings, the parties shall participate in a global mediation session before a retired judge, and Topgolf Callaway Brands shall pay the mediator’s fee. If the parties are unable to resolve the remaining Claims in mediation at this time, the remaining arbitration Claims will be filed and resolved pursuant to the terms below.
   4. If 250 arbitration Claims or less remain, the arbitration provider shall: (i) group the Claims into batches of no less than 25 arbitration demands per group; and (ii) provide for resolution of each group or batch as a single arbitration with one set of filing and administrative fees and a single arbitrator assigned per group or batch.
   5. If more than 250 arbitration Claims remain, the arbitration provider shall: (i) group the Claims into batches of no less than 250 arbitration demands per group; and (ii) provide for resolution of each group or batch as a single arbitration with one set of filing and administrative fees and a single arbitrator assigned per group or batch.
   6. A single arbitrator shall preside over each Claim or group of Claims. Only one Claim or group of Claims may be assigned to each arbitrator unless the parties agree otherwise consistent with this agreement. The statute of limitations and any filing fee deadlines shall be tolled for Claims subject to this Section 18(l) from the time the first cases are selected for the initial Bellwether Process until the time your case is selected, withdrawn, or otherwise resolved.
   7. If either party refuses to follow the protocols set forth in this Section 18(l) for mass arbitration, a court of competent jurisdiction shall have the authority to enforce this Section 18(l) by enjoining the mass filing or prosecution of arbitration demands against Topgolf Callaway Brands. Should a court of competent jurisdiction decline to enforce this Section 18(l), you and we agree that your and our counsel shall engage in good faith discussions with the assistance of an arbitrator to devise and implement procedures that ensure that arbitration remains efficient and cost-effective for all parties. Either party may engage with the AAA to address reductions in arbitration fees consistent with the AAA Supplementary Rules for Multiple Case Filings.

m. GOVERNING LAW: Notwithstanding any other section in these Rules to the contrary, you and we agree that you and we are participating in transactions that involve interstate commerce and that this Section and any resulting arbitration are governed by the FAA. Notwithstanding any section in these Rules to the contrary, to the extent state law applies, the laws of California without regard to conflicts of law principles shall apply. No state statute pertaining to arbitration shall apply.
