payroll practices. Any increase in salary beyond the above table will be solely
at the discretion of the Compensation Committee.
(b) Bonus. The Executive shall continue to be eligible to
receive an annual bonus of up to 75% of the Executive's base salary (the
"Bonus"), with a target of 50% of base salary, to be determined consistent with
the criteria used to determine the payment of Bonuses to other executives having
duties and responsibilities generally comparable to Executive's, unless such
criteria are modified by mutual agreement of the Executive and the Company's
Chief Executive Officer. On or before December 31 of each year, the Company
shall pay to Executive the amount of any Bonus due hereunder with respect to the
previous fiscal year. All Bonus payments shall be subject to withholding and all
other applicable taxes.
Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, if Executive
voluntarily terminates employment with the Company except for Good Reason as
defined in Section 12, or is terminated by the Company for cause (under Section
12), the Executive shall receive no Bonus for the year in which he leaves the
Company.
(c) Reimbursement of Expenses. The Company shall reimburse the
Executive for all ordinary and necessary business expenses incurred and paid by
the Executive in the course of the performance of the Executive's duties
pursuant to this Agreement and consistent with the Company's policies in effect
from time to time with respect to travel, entertainment and other business
expenses, and subject to the Company's requirements with respect to the manner
of reporting such expenses.
4. BENEFITS.
(a) Benefits. The Executive shall receive additional benefits
consistent with those provided to other executives having responsibility
commensurate to that of the Executive, and such benefits as may be from time to
time agreed upon in writing between the Executive and the Company.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Executive shall receive, for the term of this
2
Agreement, the additional benefits listed in the attached Exhibit A, which is
incorporated herein.
(b) Vacation. The Executive shall receive four (4) weeks of
vacation annually for the first three (3) years of this Agreement. For years
four (4) and five (5), 2005 and 2006, the Executive shall receive sixteen (16)
weeks of vacation annually. For year six (6), 2007, the Executive shall receive
eighteen (18) weeks of vacation annually. For years seven (7) and eight (8),

5. STOCK OPTIONS.
(a) The Company hereby grants to Executive as of the date of
this Agreement a nonqualified stock option (the "Option") to purchase 20,000
shares of the Company's common stock (the "Shares") at the market price per
share as of the close of business on the date on which this Agreement is
executed pursuant to the Rawlings Sporting Goods Company, Inc.'s 1994 Long-Term
Incentive Plan and the Nonqualified Stock Option Agreement (the "Plan"). The
Option shall vest and become exercisable immediately upon execution of this
Agreement and may be exercised at any time thereafter at the Executive's sole
discretion in accordance with the Plan as approved by the Stock Option Committee
(the "Committee") thereunder. The number of Shares with respect to which the
Option may be exercised shall be cumulative so that if the full number of Shares
shall not have been purchased, any such unpurchased Shares shall continue to be
included in the number of Shares with respect to which the Option shall then be
exercisable along with any other Shares as to which the Option may become
exercisable.
If the Company experiences a Change of Control as defined by
the Plan or if this Agreement terminates for any reason (any of which may be
defined as the "triggering event"), the Executive may choose to exercise and may
sell his shares, in accordance with the Plan as approved by the Committee
thereunder, in exchange for a lump sum payment equivalent to the difference
between the purchase price per share at the time of the triggering event and the
market price per share as of the close of business on the date on which this
Agreement is executed.
(b) The Executive shall be eligible for additional stock
option grants solely at the discretion of the Compensation Committee.
(c) The options described in (a) and (b) above are not
transferable to any third party by the Executive except to a revocable living
trust established by the Executive of which the Executive is a trustee and the
primary beneficiary. The options may be exercised only to purchase whole Shares.
No fractional
3
shares will be issued upon exercise of the options. The options shall be
exercised and payment made to the Company in accordance with procedures provided
by the Compensation Committee of the Company.
(d) Notwithstanding any provision within this Agreement to the
contrary, all stock options granted to Executive prior to this Agreement shall
remain in effect consistent with their granted terms.
6. DUTIES. The Executive agrees that so long as he is employed under
this Agreement he will (i) devote his best efforts to properly further the
interests of the Company, (ii) at all times be subject to the Company's
direction and control with respect to his activities on behalf of the Company,
(iii) comply with all rules, orders and regulations of the Company, (iv)
truthfully and accurately maintain and preserve such records and make all
reports as the Company may require, and (v) fully account for all monies and
other property of the Company of which he may from time to time have custody and
deliver the same to the Company whenever and however directed to do so.
Furthermore, the Executive is employed primarily to lead and manage the
Company's purchasing, inventory control, customer service and human resources
functions in his role as President. Any additional duties will be mutually
agreed to by the Executive and the Company's Chief Executive Officer. It is
contemplated that as the Executive ceases working full-time beginning January 1,
2005, the scope of the Executive's responsibilities may be reduced to reflect
his increased vacation time. These reductions will be mutually agreed to by the
Executive and the Company's Chief Executive Officer. If the parties can not
agree, the parties will mediate the disagreement per the terms of Section 20.
7. COVENANT NOT TO DISCLOSE CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. The Executive
acknowledges that during the course of his employment with the Company he has or
will have access to and knowledge of certain information and data which the
Company considers confidential and that the release of such information or data
to unauthorized persons would be extremely detrimental to the Company. As a
consequence, the Executive hereby agrees and acknowledges that he owes a duty to
the Company not to disclose, and agrees that, during or after the term of his
employment, without the prior written consent of the Company he will not
communicate, publish or disclose, to any person anywhere or use any Confidential
Information (as hereinafter defined) for any purpose other than carrying out his
duties as President. The Executive will return to the Company all Confidential
Information in the Executive's possession or under the Executive's control
whenever the Company shall so request, and in any event will promptly return all
such Confidential Information if the Executive's relationship with the Company
is terminated for any or no reason and will not retain any copies thereof. For
purposes hereof the term "Confidential Information" shall mean any information
or data used by or belonging or relating to the Company that is not known
generally to the industry in which the Company
4
is or may be engaged, including without limitation, any and all trade secrets,
proprietary data and information relating to the Company's past, present or
future business and products, price lists, customer lists, processes, procedures
or standards, manuals, business strategies, records, drawings, specifications,
designs, financial information, whether or not reduced to writing, or
information or data which the Company advises the Executive should be treated as
Confidential Information.
8. COVENANT NOT TO COMPETE. The Executive acknowledges that during his
employment with the Company he, at the expense of the Company, has been and will
be specially trained in the business of the Company, has and will establish
favorable relations with the customers, clients and accounts of the Company and
has and will have access to inventions, trade secrets and Confidential
Information of the Company. Therefore, in consideration of such training and
relations and to further protect the inventions, trade secrets and Confidential
Information of the Company, the Executive agrees that during the term of his
employment by the Company and for a period of two (2) years from and after the
termination of such employment by the Company for cause or by the Executive
without "Good Reason" or any or no reason, he will not, directly or indirectly,
without the express written consent of the Company, except when and as requested
to do in and about the performance of his duties under this Agreement:
(a) Own or have any interest in or act as an officer,
director, partner, principal, employee, agent, representative, consultant or
independent contractor of, or in any way assist in, any business located in or
doing business in the United States or in any other country, territory or
possession in which the Company has engaged in business during the Executive's
employ, that is engaged in direct competition with any business of the Company
at any time during the last two (2) years of the Executive's employment
hereunder;
(b) Solicit, divert or attempt to divert clients, customers
(whether or not such persons have done business with the Company once or more
than once), accounts of the Company, or prospective clients, customers or
accounts which the Company has contacted within the two (2) years immediately
preceding Executive's termination; or solicit, entice or induce or in any manner
influence any person who is or shall be in the employ or service of the Company
to leave such employ or service for the purpose of engaging in a business that
may be in competition with the Company.
(c) Solicit, entice or induce or in any manner influence any
person who is or shall be in the employ or service of the Company to leave such
employ or service for the purpose of engaging in a business that may be in
competition with the Company; or
5
Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, Executive may
own up to 1% of the outstanding equity securities of stock in any corporation
which is listed upon a national stock exchange or actively traded in the
over-the-counter market.
9. SUCCESSORSHIP. The Company shall exercise its best efforts to
require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by purchase, merger,
consolidation, or otherwise) of all or substantially all of the business and/or
assets of the Company or of any division or subsidiary thereof to expressly
assume and agree to perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same
extent that the Company would be required to perform it if no such succession
had taken place. Failure of the Company to obtain such assumption and agreement
prior to the effectiveness of any such succession shall be a breach of this
Agreement and shall entitle the Executive to compensation from the Company in
the same amount and on the same terms as he would be entitled hereunder if
terminated voluntarily by Executive for Good Reason or without Cause by the
Company as defined in and pursuant to Section 12 hereof, and consistent with the
provisions of Section 5 except that for the purposes of implementing the
foregoing the date on which any such succession becomes effective shall be
deemed the Effective Date of Termination.
10. SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE. Recognizing that irreparable damage will
result to the Company in the event of the breach or threatened breach of any of
the foregoing covenants and assurances by the Executive contained in Sections 7
or 8 hereof, and that the Company's remedies at law for any such breach or
threatened breach will be inadequate, the Company and its successors and
assigns, in addition to such other remedies which may be available to them,
shall be entitled to, seek an injunction to be issued by any court of competent
jurisdiction ordering compliance with this Agreement or enjoining and
restraining the Executive, and each and every person, firm or company acting in
concert or participation with him, from the continuation of such breach and, in
addition thereto, he shall pay to the Company all ascertainable damages,
including costs and reasonable attorneys' fees sustained by the Company by
reason of the breach or threatened breach of said covenants and assurances. The
Company shall pay to the Executive all costs and reasonable attorneys' fees
incurred by the Executive in defending against any action instituted by the
Company or in enforcing this Agreement if a court of competent jurisdiction
finds that the Executive is the prevailing party in such action. The obligations
of the Executive and the rights of the Company, its successors and assigns under
Sections 7, 8, 10, 11, 13, 17, 19 and 20 of this Agreement shall survive the
termination of this Agreement. The covenants and obligations of the Executive
set forth in Sections 7 and 8 hereof are in addition to and not in lieu of or
exclusive of any other obligations and duties of the Executive to the Company,
whether express or implied in fact or in law.
6
11. POTENTIAL UNENFOREABILITY OF ANY PROVISION. If a final judicial
determination is made that any provision of this Agreement is an unenforceable
restriction against the Executive, the provisions hereof shall be rendered void
only to the extent that such judicial determination finds such provisions
unenforceable, and such unenforceable provisions shall automatically be
reconstituted and become a part of this Agreement, effective as of the date
first written above, to the maximum extent that is lawfully enforceable. A
judicial determination that any provision of this Agreement is unenforceable
shall in no instance render the entire Agreement unenforceable, but rather the
Agreement will continue in full force and effect absent any unenforceable
provision to the maximum extent permitted by law.
12. TERMINATION.
(a) This Agreement shall terminate immediately upon the death,
Disability as defined herein or adjudication of legal incompetence of the
Executive by a court of competent jurisdiction. Disability is defined as any
significant impairment of a major life activity that prevents the Executive from
performing the essential functions of his position for a period of six (6)
months as determined by an independent medical practitioner.
In the event this Agreement is terminated, the parties'
obligations under this Agreement shall terminate immediately (except as
otherwise provided herein), and neither the Executive nor his estate, heirs,
successors or assigns shall be entitled to any further compensation hereunder.
(b) If the Company terminates the Executive employment, other
than for cause (as defined below), prior to the end of the contract term or if
the Executive voluntarily terminates his employment with the Company for "Good
Reason", which shall mean the occurrence of any one of the following events
unless Executive specifically agrees in writing that such event shall not be a
"Good Reason": (i) assignment of Executive to duties materially inconsistent
with the Executive's authorities, duties, responsibilities, and status
(including offices, titles, and reporting requirements), (ii) a reduction or
alteration in the nature or status of Executive's authorities, duties, or
responsibilities, other than an insubstantial and inadvertent act that is
remedied by the Company, it being understood, however, that the parties are
maintaining the Executive's daily oversight of the Purchasing, Inventory
Control, Human Resources and Customer Service departments and his direct
reporting to the Chief Executive Officer for the first three (3) years of this
Agreement and this direct oversight and/or reporting may be discontinued or
changed if, after the completion of the thirty-sixth (36th) month of this
Agreement, the Company determines in its sole discretion that oversight by a
full-time Executive would be preferable, or (iii) a reduction of Executive's
Base Salary other than, pursuant to Section 3 (a) above, or (iv) the relocation
of the Executive, to a work site more than forty (40) miles from the office at
which the Executive was based as of the date hereof, except for
7
required travel on the business of the Company to an extent substantially
consistent with the Executive's present business obligations, or (v) in the
event of a change of control, as defined in Paragraph 5 of this Agreement, and
the Company shall fail to require any successor (whether direct or indirect, by
purchase, merger, consolation, or otherwise) to expressly assume and agree to
perform this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the
Company would be required to perform the Agreement if no succession had taken
place, including but not limited to the obligations of the Company contained
within paragraph 5, and in no other circumstances during the term hereof (e.g.,
the Executive's death or disability or voluntary termination for any reason
other than herein before set forth), the Company shall be required to pay
Executive:
(i) The Executive's accrued Base Salary.
(ii) A lump sum cash payment equal to the product of the
Executive's remaining Base Salary under the contract, multiplied by 1.5
reflecting a 50% target bonus for the remaining years.
(iii) A lump sum cash payment equal to the sum of the
remaining additional compensation paid by the Company to Executive's deferred
account as outlined in Section 3(a).
(iv) Distribution upon the Executive's request all sums in
deferred compensation accounts accrued.
(v) Any additional payments or benefits explicitly provided
under the terms of any plan, policy, program of the Company or in this Agreement
in effect at the time of the Executive's termination or as otherwise required by
applicable law.
For purposes of this Section 12, "Cause" shall mean the
occurrence of any of the following events:
1. Performance by the Executive of a negligent or intentional
act of fraud, dishonesty, breach of fiduciary duty or conviction of a felony or
plea of nolo contendre to a felony charge of embezzlement or theft, as
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction relating to the activities of
the Company;
2. Violation by the Executive of the convenants and agreements
as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction contained in Sections 7 and 8
hereof;
3. Repeated violations by the Executive of the Executive's
obligations under Section 6 of this Agreement which are demonstrably willful and
deliberate on the Executive's part;
8
Provided that Cause as defined in clause (b) above shall not constitute Cause
unless Executive is provided with written notice ("Notice to Cure") of such
Cause including the specific reasons which form the basis for such consideration
and the Executive fails to cure it within a reasonable time (not more than
thirty (30) days) after receipt of the Notice to Cure; and provided further that
Cause as defined in clause (b) above shall not mean: (A) any act or omission
believed by the Executive in good faith to have been in or not opposed to the
interest of the Company (without intent of the Executive to gain therefrom,
directly or indirectly, a profit to which the Executive was not legally
entitled); or (B) any act or omission with respect to which notice of
termination of employment of the Executive is given more than twelve (12) months
after the earliest date on which the Company knew or should have known of such
act or omission. Any and all disputes shall be resolved by arbitration in
accordance with Section 20 hereof.
13. WAIVER OF BREACH. Failure of the Company to demand strict
compliance with any of the terms, covenants or conditions hereof shall not be
deemed a waiver of the term, covenant or condition, nor shall any waiver or
relinquishment by the Company of any power right or power hereunder at any one
time or more times be deemed a waiver or relinquishment of the right or power at
any other time or times.
14. NO CONFLICTS. The Executive represents and warrants to the Company
that neither the execution nor delivery of this Agreement, nor the performance
of the Executive's obligations hereunder will conflict with, or result in a
breach of, any term, condition, or provision of, or constitute a default under,
any obligation, contract, agreement, covenant or instrument to which the
Executive is a party or under which the Executive is bound, including without
limitation, the breach by the Executive of a fiduciary duty to any former
employers.
15. INDEMNIFICATION.
(a) The Company shall indemnify Executive if he is or was a
party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending, or
completed action, suit or proceeding, whether criminal, civil, administrative or
investigative, including without limitation any action by or in the right of the

or is or was a director or officer of the Company who is or was serving at the
request of the Company as a director, officer, agent, employee, partner or
trustee of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other
enterprise; against expenses, including for attorneys' fees, judgments, fines,
taxes and amounts paid in settlement, actually and reasonably incurred by him in
connection with such action, suit or proceeding if Executive's conduct is not
finally adjudged to be knowingly fraudulent, deliberately dishonest or willful
misconduct. The right to indemnification conferred in this Section shall include
the right to be paid by the Company expenses incurred in defending any actual or
threatened civil or criminal action, suit or proceeding in advance of the final
disposition of such
9
action, suit or proceeding. Such right will be conditioned upon receipt of an
undertaking by or on behalf of Executive to repay such amount if it shall
ultimately be determined that he is not entitled to be indemnified by the
Company as authorized in this Section. Such right shall survive any amendment or
modification of this Agreement with respect to expenses incurred in connection
with claims, regardless of when such claims are brought, arising out of acts or
omissions occurring prior to such amendment or modification.
(b) The indemnification provided by this Section shall not be
deemed exclusive of any other rights to which Executive may be entitled under
any by-law, agreement, vote of disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to
action in his official capacity and as to action in another capacity while
holding such office, and shall continue as to Executive whether he has ceased to
be a director, officer, employee, partner, trustee or agent and shall inure to
the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of Executive.
(c) The Company shall obtain directors' and officers'
liability insurance ("D&O Insurance") as may be or become available in
reasonable amounts from established and reputable insurers with respect to which
the Executive is named as an insured. Notwithstanding any other provision of
this Agreement, the Company shall not be obligated to indemnify Executive for
such expenses that have been paid directly to the Executive by D&O Insurance. If
the Company has D&O Insurance in effect at the commencement of a proceeding, the
Company shall give prompt notice of the commencement of such proceeding to the
insurers in accordance with the procedures set forth in the policy. The Company
shall thereafter take all necessary or desirable action to cause such insurers
to pay, on behalf of Executive, all amounts payable as a result of such
proceeding in accordance with the terms of such policy.
(d) For purposes of this Section, the term "other enterprise"
shall include employee benefit plans; the term "fines" shall include any excise
taxes assessed on a person with respect to any employee benefit plan; and the
term "serving at the request of the Company" shall include any service as a
director, officer, employee, partner, trustee or agent of, or at the request of,
the Company which imposes duties on, or involves services by, such director,
officer, employee, partner, trustee or agent with respect to an employee benefit
plan, its participants, or beneficiaries.

Executive but it may be assigned by the Company in accordance with Section 9
hereof upon notice to the Executive and shall thereafter be binding upon and
enforceable by any person which shall acquire or succeed to substantially all of
the business or assets of the Company (and such person shall be deemed included
in the definition of the "Company" for all purposes of this Agreement) but is
not otherwise assignable by the Company.
20. ARBITRATION. Except with respect to disputes or controversies
arising out of Sections 7 and 8 hereof, any dispute between any of the parties
hereto or claim by a party against another party arising out of or in relation

subject matter of this Agreement and of the dispute.
The decision rendered by the arbitrator or arbitrators shall be
accompanied by a written opinion in support thereof. The decision shall be final
and binding upon the parties in dispute without right of appeal. Judgment upon
the decision may be entered into in any court having jurisdiction thereof, or
application may be made to that court for a judicial acceptance of the decision
and an order of enforcement. Costs of the arbitration shall be assessed by the
arbitrator or arbitrators against any or all of the parties in dispute, and
shall be paid promptly by the party or parties so assessed.
