the possibility of lower revenue or price pressure from our clients experiencing a business
downturn or merger in their business; greater than anticipated competition in the BPO services
market, causing adverse pricing and more stringent contractual terms; risks associated with losing
or not renewing client relationships, particularly large client agreements, or early termination of
a client agreement; the risk of losing clients due to consolidation in the industries we serve;
consumers concerns or adverse publicity regarding our clients products; our ability to find cost

Executive Compensation Philosophy and Policies
Elements of Executive Compensation
Our primary compensation philosophy is: (i) to develop a compensation package that attracts highly
qualified executives to work for TeleTech; (ii) to provide appropriate incentives and to reward
superior executive performance that creates long-term investor value; and (iii) to encourage
executives who deliver that performance to remain with TeleTech and to continue that level of
performance. Under the supervision of the compensation committee, TeleTech has developed and
implemented compensation policies, plans and programs that are designed to closely align the
financial interests of the senior executives with those of our stockholders in order to enhance the
long-term growth and profitability of our company and therefore the creation of long-term
stockholder value. Our compensation programs provide a balanced mix of cash, incentive and
equity-based compensation that we believe meets these goals.
Executive Compensation Policies
We approve all of the policies, plans and programs under which compensation is paid to executive
management. We strive to ensure that executive compensation relates to the measures of TeleTechs
financial performance that are important to investors, such as revenue, EBIT, and operating income
as well as completion of strategic projects and demonstration of success principles including
innovation to continuously improve performance, open communication, hands on business problem
solving, wise business decisions and business ownership. We identify, quantify and assess
performance goals of executive management and annually review the collective and individual
performance of these executives.
The main components used to support these objectives are base salary, annual bonus, stock awards
and certain other benefits. The combined mix of these pay elements is what allows us to provide a
competitive total rewards package to our executives. To date, we have not specified a target
percentage of the overall compensation package to be represented by the various compensation
elements but equity compensation represents the largest component. For each element of
compensation, our strategy has been to examine peer group compensation practices and set target
awards around the 50th percentile of the peer group for each element of compensation.
This is the same target pay position for all our employee levels. However, we have historically
approved actual compensation levels for officers above and below the 50th percentile
target as these approvals were based on individual and company performance relative to internal
goals and the peer group to ensure an appropriate pay-for-performance alignment. Moreover, the
heavy emphasis on variable, or at-risk compensation, helps calibrate actual compensation to
performance since executives do not receive value if TeleTech does not meet its performance
objectives.
Overall Factors Considered in Making Specific Compensation Decisions
Our executive compensation program is designed around five overreaching principles:
|
1. |
|
Structure compensation programs with a significant portion of variable,
or at-risk, compensation to ensure that the actual compensation realized by executive
officers is directly and demonstrably linked to individual and company performance,
such that actual executive officer compensation is significantly below target in
low-performing years and above-target in high-performing years. |
|
|
2. |
|
Offer market competitive compensation opportunities that will allow us
to attract and retain executive officers capable of leading us to the fulfillment of
our business objectives. |
|
|
3. |
|
Ensure that our executive officers are focused on individual
operational goals to build the foundation for our longer-term success. |
|
|
4. |
|
Align the interests of executive officers and stockholders to achieve
long-term stock price performance by incentivizing executive officers through equity
compensation. |
|
|
5. |
|
Maintain an egalitarian culture with respect to compensation programs,
such that, generally, all employees are eligible to participate in the same programs
as the executive officers. |
We retain the services of independent compensation consultants to review and benchmark our
compensation policies and results. An independent consultant provides additional assurance that
our programs are reasonable and consistent with our companys objectives. We regularly meet in
executive session without any management or employee directors present.
Compensation Benchmarking
We engage an independent consultant on at least an annual basis to benchmark our executives
compensation results to those companies in our peer group to assess the competitiveness of our
executive compensation. The peer group we examined in 2006 included 12 BPO and service provider
companies that were similar to us with respect to several metrics, principally including: business
strategy, labor market competitors, market capitalization, revenue and number of employees. The
peer group companies include some, but not all, of the companies that are included in the market
indices in the graph.
The companies in the peer group have the following profile (as of December 2006):

In addition, we evaluated the pay practices of a number of BPO and service provider companies
that are larger than us with respect to market capitalization, revenue and employees. The purpose
of this evaluation is to understand compensation practices of industry leaders to help us plan for
our next stage of anticipated growth. These pay levels are reviewed for informational purposes and
are not included in the market comparables used to make compensation decisions.
We review the companies in our peer group at least annually and make adjustments as necessary to
ensure the group continues to properly reflect the market in which we compete for talented
executives. We also review annually the executive pay practices of other similarly situated
companies as reported in industry surveys and reports from compensation consulting firms. We
request customized reports of these surveys so that the compensation data reflects the practices of
companies that are similar to us. This information is also considered when making recommendations
for each element of compensation.
Elements of Compensation
Annual Base Salaries
The chief executive officer has authority to hire all members of executive management, subject to
the compensation committees approval of the compensation to be paid to such executives. Subject to
the approval of the compensation committee, the chief executive officer also determines the
compensation payable to persons offered executive level employment and annual salary increases for
members of executive management. The board, at the recommendation of the compensation committee,
determines adjustments to the chief executive officers compensation and evaluates the performance
of the chief executive officer. In determining and approving the amount of compensation for
executive management, the chief executive officer and the compensation committee consider factors
such as the executives contribution to overall operating effectiveness, strategic success and
profitability; the executives role in developing and maintaining key client relationships; the
level of responsibility, scope and complexity of such executives position relative to other
executive management; and the executives leadership growth and management development over the
past year. Additionally, as stated earlier, compensation is determined in a manner consistent with
remaining competitive (between the 50th and 75th percentile) with that paid
to industries that we believe have financial, operational and risk factors sufficiently similar to
the Company and to provide an adequate degree of financial stability to those individuals who are
crucial to our business both strategically and operationally. The salaries of the named executive
officers, which are listed in the Summary Compensation Table located elsewhere in this proxy
statement, are governed primarily by written agreements or the terms contained in offers of
employment.
Short Term/Annual Incentive Compensation
Management Incentive Plan
TeleTech pays annual incentive compensation to executive officers under the management incentive
plan. Pursuant to the management incentive plan, cash performance bonuses for executives are
determined and approved annually by the compensation committee based on achievement of an operating
income goal set by the board of directors. Each participants
award can vary from zero to 200% of
their incentive target. In addition to operating income
goals, the Company also considers completion of strategic projects and
demonstration of TeleTechs success principles including innovation to continuously improve
performance, open communication, hands on business problem solving, wise business decisions and
business ownership. In February 2006, the compensation committee conducted annual performance
reviews of all executive management.
In December 2006, the compensation committee approved the 2007 management incentive plan which
supersedes all previous incentive/bonus plans for eligible participants.
Sales Incentive Plan (Sales Executive)
The TeleTech sales incentive plan (sales executive) is intended to reward sales executives for
their substantial efforts in securing profitable long term revenue under a new logo contract (i.e.
a new client introduction with no pre-existing relationship with TeleTech) and to reward sales
executives for their continued efforts in ensuring customer satisfaction under new logo contracts
they are responsible for securing.
Incentive
payments are based on securing new logos business in four business
areas. Payments are calculated based upon projected annualized
revenue, the length of the contract and other financial and strategic measures.
Sales Incentive Plan (Client Executive)
The TeleTech sales incentive plan (client executive) is intended to reward sales executives for
their substantial efforts in maintaining and growing long term revenue under existing client
relationships and to reward sales executives for their continued efforts in ensuring customer
satisfaction and growing accounts.
Payments are calculated based upon two components including quarterly booked revenue incentive
targeted at 50% of participants base pay based on meeting quarterly booked revenue goals for
assigned clients and new program incentive based on the successful generation of new contracts for
assigned clients.
General Manager Incentive Plan
The general manager incentive plan is designed to motivate the eligible executives to achieve the
revenue, operating income, and EBIT goals and objectives contained in TeleTechs strategic plan as
approved by the board of directors for each region or business unit for which they are responsible.
The plan includes an annual incentive target of 100% of base pay with a stretch goal of 200% of
base pay calculated based upon metrics which set a target based upon annual revenue achieved and
annual EBIT percentage.
Site Management Incentive Plan
The site management incentive plan is designed to motivate each sites management team to achieve
the goals and objectives of TeleTechs strategic plan. The plan is applicable to all full time
regular employees hired prior to the start of a performance period and dedicated to one site. The
plan is designed to generate an incentive pool for each site based on the relative achievement of
its monthly employee related gross margin goal. Payouts under the plan occur in a two-step
process: (i) an incentive pool is created based on the level of achievement of our pre-set employee
related gross margin goals; and (ii) individual incentive payouts are determined based on each
employees relative achievement of goals and objectives, impact on business and financial results
and the available incentive pool.
Long-Term Incentive Compensation
Long term incentive compensation is primarily comprised of
equity based incentive in the form of (i) options and more
recently (ii) RSUs. Stock-based compensation is an important element of our compensation policy. Stock options have
generally been offered to induce an executive to accept employment with TeleTech. The compensation
committee believed that stock options, which vest over time and are subject to forfeiture, align
the interests of executive management with the interests of TeleTechs stockholders. In February
2007, we moved to a
RSU program. Under the RSU program,
shares of restricted stock are granted to eligible employees. RSUs vest in two ways: time based
and performance based. The RSU program operates under the same philosophy as stock options, and the
compensation committee also believes that substantial equity ownership by individuals in leadership
positions ensure that these individuals will remain focused on building stockholder value. An
executive officer level committee, consisting of the chief executive officer, the chief financial
officer and the
executive vice president of global human capital, has the authority to administer
the stock option and RSU plans with respect to grants of not more than 100,000 RSUs to employees
who are not executive officers. Any grants in excess of 100,000 RSUs or to an executive officer
must be approved by the compensation committee.
In December 2004, the board of directors approved the long term incentive plan under which
executive management and other key leaders were eligible. Under the long term incentive plan,
participants were eligible to earn an incentive award upon completion of the 2007 fiscal year
provided the company met certain revenue and EBIT targets approved by the board of directors. In
February 2007, the long term incentive plan was replaced by the RSU program and participating
individuals received grants of RSUs which contain vesting based upon company performance and time.
Share Retention and Securities Trading Policy
We believe that to the extent our executive officers hold significant ownership in TeleTech, their
interests will remain aligned with those of our stockholders, and they will be appropriately
motivated to enhance TeleTechs performance and value. We encourage our executive officers and
board members to hold a significant ownership interest. TeleTech is currently reviewing several
options for a stock ownership program including: (i) a multiple of salary; (ii) a fixed number of
shares; (iii) a retention ratio; and (iv) a combination of a retention ratio and multiple of
salary. The compensation committee expects to implement a share retention plan during 2007. Our
executive officers and directors are also subject to a pre-clearance policy whereby directors and
executive officers and any other persons designated by the legal department as being subject to
TeleTechs pre-clearance procedures, together with their family members, may not engage in any
transaction involving TeleTech securities (including a stock plan transaction such as an option
exercise, a gift, a loan or pledge or hedge, a contribution to a trust, or any other transfer)
without first obtaining pre-clearance of the transaction from the legal department. A request for
pre-clearance is submitted to the legal department which then determines whether the transaction
may proceed and, if so, assist in complying with reporting requirements. All directors, executive
officers and key personnel are also subject to TeleTechs insider trading policy and regular
blackout periods thereunder.
Compensation of the Chief Executive Officer
Mr. Tuchman was originally paid a base salary of
$250,000. In September 2004, the board of directors increased Mr. Tuchmans salary to $350,000. Mr.
Tuchman also received a cash bonus for 2005 of $500,000 that was paid in February 2006. Based upon
its review of proxy statements filed by similarly situated companies, the compensation committee
believes this compensation is in line with the compensation paid to similarly situated chief
executive officers. The board reviews Mr. Tuchmans performance once annually.
Fiscal year 2006 compensation for Mr. Tuchman can be categorized as

Review of All Components of Executive Compensation
Limitations on the Deductibility of Compensation. Under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended, and applicable Treasury regulations, no tax deduction is allowed for
annual compensation in excess of $1 million paid to the five most highly compensated executive
officers. Performance-based compensation that has been disclosed to and approved by stockholders,
by a majority of the vote in a separate stockholder vote before the payment of such compensation,
is excluded from the $1 million limit if, among other requirements, the compensation is payable
only upon attainment of pre-established, objective performance goals and the board committee that
establishes such goals consists only of outside directors as defined for purposes of Section
162(m). Each of the members of the compensation committee qualify as outside directors. The
compensation committee intends to maximize the extent of
tax deductibility of executive compensation under the provisions of Section 162(m) so long as doing
so is compatible with its determinations as to the most appropriate methods and approaches for the
design and delivery of compensation to executive officers.
Benefits We provide benefit programs to executive officers and to other employees. The following

We provide company-paid long term disability insurance to eligible full-time employees

In December 2006, TeleTech approved the 2007 management incentive plan which supersedes
all previous incentive/bonus plans for eligible participants. |
|

|
The performance period for the long term incentive plan was January 1, 2005 through
December 31, 2007 and funding was based on extraordinary revenue and profitability growth goals by
December 31, 2007. In February 2007, the plan was replaced by the RSU program whereby individuals
eligible to participate in the plan received grants of RSUs for which vesting is 2/3
performance based and 1/3 time based. |

The Company has implemented a non-qualified deferred compensation plan that allows
executive officers and certain management-level employees to defer receipt of certain salary and
cash bonus payments on a pre-tax basis. |
We believe perquisites for executive officers should be extremely limited in scope and value. As a
result, TeleTech has historically given nominal perquisites. The following table generally

Employees may defer up to seventy five percent of their salary
or bonus and/or commissions. Deferrals and investment earnings
are tax deferred until withdrawn or paid. There are no penalties
on any scheduled withdrawals. Nonscheduled withdrawals are not
available except in the case of unforeseeable emergencies.
Employees may specify among different deemed investment options.
The investment crediting choices are not publicly traded mutual
funds and are only available through variable insurance products.
With respect to previous reporting periods, Mr. Simon did
not participate in the Companys non-qualified deferred
compensation plan in prior years and Mr. Troka was not a
named executive officer in prior years. The Company noted in
appropriate prior years that Mr. Tuchman deferred one
hundred percent of his salary.
Messrs. Tuchman, Troka and Simon did not make any
withdrawals during the past three fiscal years.
Compensation of Directors
Directors who are also employees of TeleTech receive no remuneration for serving as directors
or committee members. Non-employee directors receive (i) an annual retainer of $40,000 paid
quarterly, (ii) a meeting fee of $1,000 for each board and committee meeting attended and (iii) a
meeting fee of $500 for each telephonic board and committee meeting attended. The chairmen of the
compensation and nominating and governance committees receive an additional fee of $5,000 per year
and the chairman of the audit committee receives an additional fee of $20,000 per year.
Non-employee directors also receive options pursuant to our 1999 stock option and incentive plan.
Each non-employee director who is first elected or appointed to the board receives an option to
purchase 10,000 shares of common stock. Each non-employee director also receives an option to
purchase 15,000 shares of common stock on the day of each annual meeting of shareholders subsequent
to his or her election or appointment to the board, provided that he or she continues in office
after the annual meeting. The exercise price for each option granted is 100% of the market value of
the common stock on the date of grant as evidenced by the closing share price on the NASDAQ Stock
Market. Options vest immediately upon date of grant and are exercisable into restricted stock for
which restrictions shall lapse one year after the date of grant.
As of December 31, 2006, our current independent directors (over the length of their service):
|
|
|
had received in the aggregate the option to purchase 60,000 shares of common stock in
connection with their annual retainer; |
|
|
|
|
had been granted in the aggregate options to purchase 240,000 shares of common stock at
an average weighted exercise price of $9.18 per share; |
|
|
|
|
had converted in the aggregate 40,000 options into shares of common stock; |
|
|
|
|
had exercised in the aggregate options for 25,000 shares of common stock; and |
|
|
|
|
had been granted no shares of restricted stock. |

ITEM 13. CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
We have entered into agreements pursuant to which Avion, LLC and AirMax, LLC provide certain
aviation flight services to and as requested by the Company. Such services include the use of an
aircraft and flight crew. Kenneth D. Tuchman, our chief executive officer and chairman of the
board, has a direct beneficial ownership interest equal to 100% in Avion. During 2006, we paid an
aggregate of $1,034,483 to Avion for services provided to TeleTech. Mr. Tuchman also purchases
services from AirMax from time to time and provides short-term loans to AirMax. During 2006, the
Company paid to AirMax an aggregate of $1,397,302 for services provided to the Company. The audit
committee of the board of directors reviewed these transactions quarterly and determined that the
fees charged by Avion and Airmax are at fair market value.
During 2006, we utilized the services of Salesforce.com. Shirley Young, one of our directors, is
also a director of Salesforce.com. During 2006, we paid approximately $372,619 to Salesforce.com.
Ms. Youngs only remuneration from Salesforce.com consists of board fees for services as a director
of Salesforce.com.
TeleTech believes that all transactions disclosed above have been, and TeleTechs board of
directors intends that any future transactions with its officers, directors, affiliates or
principal stockholders will be, on terms that are no less favorable to TeleTech than those that are
obtainable in arms length transactions with unaffiliated third parties.
All
related party transactions are reviewed annually by the audit
committee and are compared to other vendors competitive bids to
ensure that the terms with such related parties are fair and
equitable. Upon approval, the audit committee submits their
recommendation to the full board of directors for review and
approval. All related party transactions named herein have been
approved by the audit committee and board of directors and deemed to
be fair and equitable.
Director Independence
The board of directors determined that William Linnenbringer, Ruth Lipper, Shrikant Mehta and
Shirley Young are independent under the NASDAQ listing standards. Beginning in 2003, we held
regularly scheduled executive sessions at least four times each year, at which only our independent
directors were present.

Independent
Registered Public Accounting Firm
On May 7, 2007, the Chairman of the Audit Committee of the
Board of Directors (the Audit Committee) of TeleTech
Holdings, Inc. (the Company) was notified by
Ernst & Young LLP (Ernst &
Young) that it is declining to stand for re-election as
the Companys independent registered public accounting firm
for the year ending December 31, 2007. Ernst &
Young will perform the procedures specified by the Public
Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) for a review
of the interim financial information as described in AU 722,
Interim Financial Information on the unaudited consolidated
financial statements included in the Companys Quarterly
Report on
Form 10-Q
for the quarter ended March 31, 2007. Ernst &
Young completed its review on May 9, 2007.
During the two years ended December 31, 2006 and
December 31, 2005 and the quarter ended March 31, 2007
and for the period through May 9, 2007, there were no
disagreements between the Company and Ernst & Young on
any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial
statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure that, if
not resolved to Ernst & Youngs satisfaction,
would have caused it to make reference to the matter in
connection with its report on the Companys consolidated
financial statements for the relevant year.
Ernst & Youngs audit reports on the
Companys consolidated financial statements for the fiscal
years ended December 31, 2005 and December 31, 2006
did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor
were they qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope
or accounting principles.
Ernst & Youngs report on the December 31,
2006 financial statements included a reference to the adoption
of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
No. 123®
effective January 1, 2006.
On May 7, 2007, the Audit Committee of the Board of
Directors of the Company, after reviewing competitive proposals
from several independent registered public accounting firms
during the first quarter of 2007 as a part of its periodic
review and corporate governance practices, determined to engage
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (PwC) as the
Companys independent registered public accounting firm
beginning May 9, 2007.
During the two years ended December 31, 2005 and
December 31, 2006, the quarter ended March 31, 2007
and through May 9, 2007, neither the Company, nor anyone on
its behalf, consulted with PwC with respect to either
(i) the application of accounting principles to a specified
transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit
opinion that might be rendered on the Companys
consolidated financial statements, and no written report or oral
advice was provided by PwC to the Company that PwC concluded was
an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a
decision as to the accounting, auditing or financial reporting
issue or (ii) any matter that was the subject of either a
disagreement as defined in Item 3.04 (a)(1)(iv) of
Regulation S-K
or a reportable event as described in Item 3.04(a)(1)(v) of
Regulation S-K.
Policy on Audit Committee Pre-Approval of Audit and Permissible Non-Audit Services
In accordance with the audit committees charter, the audit committee has established a policy to
pre-approve audit and permissible non-audit services provided by the independent registered public
accounting firm as follows:
Any and all services to be provided by TeleTechs external audit firm must be approved by the audit
committee. Any director, officer or employee of the company proposing to engage the services of
TeleTechs external audit firm for any reason (regardless of scope of the project or associated
costs) must submit a request for approval, in writing, to TeleTechs corporate controller. The
corporate controller will review the request and, if necessary, obtain additional information from
the requestor.
If the proposed services fall into one of the specified prohibited services categories as set forth
in the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, the corporate controller will deny the request.
Both the corporate controller and the assistant general counsel will review requests that are not
clearly determined to fall into the prohibited services category. Requests that are approved by the
corporate controller and assistant general counsel will then be forwarded to the corporate chief
financial officer for further review.
Requests that are approved by the corporate chief financial officer will be forwarded to the audit
committee chairperson (projects with a total expected cost of less than or equal to $100,000) or to
the audit committee (projects with a total expected cost of more than $100,000) by the assistant
general counsel. The audit committee chairperson reports all pre-approvals to the full audit
committee at each regularly scheduled meeting and all such pre-approvals are ratified by the full
audit committee.
The corporate controller will be responsible for tracking the status of all requests and for
reporting the final disposition to the requestor and to the assistant general counsel. The
assistant general counsel will be responsible for maintaining documentation supporting the
disposition of all requests. No contracts or engagement letters may be signed and no work may
commence until the requisite written approval has been received.
