Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On November 30, 2007, TeleTech Holdings, Inc. entered into a Second Amendment Agreement (the
Second Amendment) to its Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of September 28, 2006
(the Credit Agreement) with the lender parties thereto (the Lenders), KeyBank National
Association, as lead arranger, sole book runner and administrative agent and Wells Fargo Bank,
N.A., as syndication agent. The Credit Agreement is a revolving credit facility which permits the
Company to borrow up to $180 million from the Lenders.
As disclosed in the Companys current report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (SEC) on November 9, 2007, the Companys Audit Committee is conducting a
self-initiated review of the Companys accounting for equity-based compensation practices. Until
the review is complete, the Company is not able to prepare and deliver to the Lenders financial
statements in accordance with GAAP, as required by the Credit Agreement. The Company was also not
able to timely file its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended September 30, 2007 (the
Delayed 10-Q).
The Second Amendment, which, by agreement, was made effective as of November 15, 2007, permits the
Company to deliver its financial statements for the fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2007 to the
Lenders by March 31, 2008. The Lenders also consented to (i) the filing of the Delayed 10-Q with
the SEC on or before March 31, 2008, (ii) the restatement of the Companys previously issued
financial statements, if necessary, and (iii) the NASDAQ Staff Determination Letter with respect to
the possible delisting of the Companys common stock from the NASDAQ Global Market due to the
Delayed 10-Q. The Lenders consent is conditioned such that after giving effect to the terms of
the Second Amendment and the foregoing consent, no other default or event of default may exist
under the Credit Agreement. In addition, the Company may be required to pay the Lenders higher
interest for past periods to the extent a higher rate would have been applicable under the Credit
Agreement based on the Companys restated financial statements for the relevant prior periods, if
such restatements occur.
As a result of the Second Amendment, there is presently no basis for the Lenders to declare an
event of default under the Credit Agreement and the Company may continue to borrow funds
thereunder. However, if the Company fails to deliver the required financial statements for the
fiscal quarter ended September 30, 2007 and file the Delayed 10-Q with the SEC by March 31, 2008,
the Lenders may declare an event of default under the Credit Agreement, terminate their commitment
to lend to the Company and require that the Company immediately repay all amounts then outstanding
under the Credit Agreement.
A copy of the Second Amendment is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1.
