Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
     On June 30, 2008, TeleTech Holdings, Inc. entered into a Fourth Amendment Agreement (the “Fourth 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 Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on February 20, 2008, the Company’s Audit Committee has completed a self-initiated review of the Company’s accounting for equity-based compensation practices. Based on the Audit Committee’s review and management’s own additional review, the Company has determined that it will be necessary to restate its financial statements for fiscal years 2005 and 2006 and for the first two quarters of 2007. The Company is presently working with its auditors to finalize the quantification of restatement adjustments and allocations among the relevant accounting periods. As a result, the Company was not able to: (i) timely file its Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended September 30, 2007 and March 31, 2008 and its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2007 (collectively, the “Delayed 10-Qs and 10-K”) and (ii) prepare and deliver to the Lenders financial statements in accordance with GAAP, as required by the Credit Agreement.
     The Fourth Amendment permits the Company to deliver its financial statements for the fiscal quarters ended September 30, 2007 and March 31, 2008 and financial statements and the annual audit report for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007, to the Lenders by August 15, 2008. The Lenders also consented to (i) the filing of the Delayed 10-Qs and 10-K with the SEC on or before August 15, 2008, (ii) the restatement of the Company’s previously issued financial statements, and (iii) the NASDAQ Staff Determination Letters with respect to the possible delisting of the Company’s common stock from the NASDAQ Global Market due to the Delayed 10-Qs and 10-K. The Lenders’ consent is conditioned such that after giving effect to the terms of the Fourth Amendment and the foregoing consent, no other default or event of default may exist under the Credit Agreement.
     As a result of the Fourth 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: (i) deliver the required financial statements for the fiscal quarters ended September 30, 2007 and March 31, 2008 and for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007, and (ii) file the Delayed 10-Qs and 10-K with the SEC by August 15, 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 Fourth Amendment is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1.
