(e) Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On August 7, 2008, the Compensation Committee of TeleTech Holdings, Inc.’s Board of Directors approved the following restricted stock unit (RSU) awards to TeleTech’s principal financial officer and certain other executive officers, all of whom were named in the Summary Compensation Table of TeleTech’s definitive proxy statement (as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 7, 2008):

Recipient   Position   Vesting of RSUs
Brian J. Delaney
  Executive Vice President and Chief Operations Officer     40,000  
Gregory G. Hopkins
  Executive Vice President of Global Accounts     25,000  
John R. Troka, Jr.
  Senior Vice President and Interim Chief Financial Officer     25,000  
 
           
Total
        90,000  
The Compensation Committee believes it is essential to provide equity compensation to our executive officers in order to link the interests and risks of our executive officers with those of our stockholders. The Compensation Committee approved the grant and issuance of the RSUs pursuant to the terms and conditions of the 1999 Stock Option and Incentive Plan, as amended and restated, and the related RSU Agreements (a form of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report of Form 8-K).
Vesting. The RSUs vest in four equal annual installments beginning on March 1, 2009, provided that the executive officer is continuously employed through the vesting date. Notwithstanding the above, unvested RSUs will become eligible for accelerated vesting in the event of a “Change in Control,” as specified in Section 3A of the RSU Agreement. When the RSUs vest, TeleTech issues shares of common stock to the executive officer without requiring the executive officer to take any further action or make any payment.
