T-MOBILE USA, INC. SERVICES AGREEMENT

CALL CENTER SERVICES

THIS SERVICES AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made effective as of October 1, 2007 (the “Effective Date”), between T-Mobile USA, Inc., a Delaware corporation with a principal place of business at 12920 SE 38th Street, Bellevue, Washington 98006 (“T-Mobile”) and StarTek USA, Inc., a corporation organized under Colorado, with a principal place of business at 44 Cook Street, 4^th Floor, Denver, Colorado 80206 (“Provider”).

For good and valuable consideration, T-Mobile and Provider (together, the “Parties” and individually, a “Party”) agree as follows:

1. Scope of Work.

1.1 Services.Provider shall perform the services described in one or more statements of work executed by the Parties and which specifically state that they are governed by this Agreement (each, a “Statement of Work”) (the “Services”). The Parties acknowledge and agree that each Party’s performance of its obligations pursuant to this Agreement is conditioned upon the full, proper and timely performance by the other Party of its obligations pursuant to this Agreement.

1.2 Performance of Services.Provider shall perform the Services in accordance with the Specifications. “Specifications,” for purposes of this Agreement, means any descriptions of the Services hereunder, including, but not limited to, the timing, components, capacities, features, quantities, functions, methods and other standards for Provider’s performance of the Services, as set forth in this Agreement, the Standard Terms (defined below), an applicable Statement of Work, Policies (defined in Section 1.4 below); and in Provider’s responses, if any, to T-Mobile’s requests for proposal, if any; and as otherwise agreed upon by the Parties in writing. “Standard Terms,” for purposes of this Agreement, means the Standard Terms and Conditions contained in Exhibit A hereto.

1.2.1 Timing of Performance.The Parties agree that time is of the essence for Provider’s performance hereunder. If the Parties do not agree upon a schedule for the performance of certain Services, then Provider shall perform such Services with due diligence under the circumstances. Provider shall notify T-Mobile immediately of any factor, occurrence or event that may affect Provider’s ability to perform the Services as set forth in the Specifications.

1.2.2 Facilities.Except to the extent expressly provided to the contrary in the Specifications, Provider shall provide its own facilities, including, but not limited to, all resources, premises, systems, networks, hardware, software and other equipment as necessary to provide the Services (to the extent actually used to provide Services, collectively, “Facilities”). Provider shall have all necessary rights and licenses to use all Facilities, and shall comply in all material respects with all applicable registration, licensing, permitting, approval and other governmental requirements so as to enable Provider to perform the Services (including, but not limited to, any such requirements imposed upon T-Mobile with respect to the Services). Provider’s use of the Facilities and performance of the Services will not infringe any trade name, trademark, services, copyright, patent, trade secret or other intellectual property or proprietary right of any third party.

1.2.3T-Mobile Equipment.In the event T-Mobile provides Provider with T-Mobile facilities or equipment (“T-Mobile Equipment”) for use in the performance of Services, Provider shall (a) not use such T-Mobile Equipment (including any equipment or facilities owned, leased or rented by Provider for performing its obligations under this Agreement) to perform services for any person or entity other than T-Mobile, without the prior written consent of T-Mobile; (b) assume the risk of loss for all such T-Mobile Equipment while in Provider’s care, custody or control; (c) take all reasonable precautions to protect such T-Mobile Equipment against loss, damage, theft or disappearance while in its care, custody or control; and (d) take no actions which affect T-Mobile’s title or interest in such T-Mobile Equipment.

1.3 Reports.Provider shall prepare and furnish to T-Mobile, upon request or as otherwise required in the Specifications, reports on Provider’s provision of the Services. Provider shall provide such reports in the form and content requested by T-Mobile from time to time.

1.4 Directed Changes; Compliance with Policies.T-Mobile may from time to time direct changes to the Services that do not materially change Provider’s time and expense to implement such changes (by way of example, and not limitation, revised call scripts or caller authentication procedures) (a “Directed Change”). Additionally, Provider shall immediately comply with T-Mobile’s applicable written policies which have been or will be posted to T-Mobile’s Streamline service or otherwise provided to Provider (“Policies”). If a change to the Services requested by T-Mobile or a new or revised Policy constitutes a Material Change, such change or new or revised Policy shall, as to Provider, be administered in accordance with Section 1.5 below. For purposes of this Agreement, a "Material Change” is a change to the Services, not otherwise contemplated by this Agreement, that is effected by way of a new or revised Policy, a request by T-Mobile that T-Mobile represents as a Directed Change or a written request by T-Mobile, (a) that materially and directly increases Provider’s reasonably incurred and unavoidable expenses of providing the Services to a significant and substantial extent, and (b) for which Provider can document and demonstrate, to T-Mobile’s reasonable satisfaction, such increase in Provider’s costs. By way of example, and not limitation, Material Changes may include material increases in the scope or amount of information security requirements, or material changes to one or more skill sets required at a given location at which any Services are performed (a “Site”) or for a given T-Mobile line of business (an “LOB”) if such increases or changes impose costs upon Provider meeting the cost threshold set forth above. For purposes of clarification, Material Changes do not include changes to Provider’s policies, procedures or operations that are otherwise required by applicable Specifications (e.g., changes to Safeguards (defined in Section 3) to maintain such Safeguards’ standards for performance required by this Agreement, or hiring to implement a Ramp Plan (defined in Section 7 of the Standard Terms and Conditions contained in Exhibit A)).

1.5 Change Orders.If T-Mobile notifies Provider of a new or revised Policy (including, without limitation, by posting the same on T-Mobile’s Streamline service), or otherwise notifies Provider of what T-Mobile represents as a Directed Change, Provider may, within five (5) days of T-Mobile’s provision of such notice, notify T-Mobile that Provider believes in good faith that such change or new or revised Policy constitutes a Material Change. If providing notice of a purported Material Change to T-Mobile under this Section 1.5, or if Provider receives from T-Mobile a written request for a change to the Services that T-Mobile identifies as a Material Change (“Change Order Request”), then Provider shall, within five (5) days of having provided such notice or having received such Change Order Request, provide to T-Mobile a written estimate that documents and demonstrates, to T-Mobile’s reasonable satisfaction, that such new or revised Policy or other change requested by T-Mobile constitutes a Material Change requiring a Change Order, and that sets forth any proposed equitable adjustment to the Service Fees (defined in Section 5.3 below) (a "Change Order Estimate”). If the Parties agree in writing upon the terms of any modifications to the Services and/or the Service Fees (a “Change Order”), each affected Statement of Work, and such other portions of the Specifications as expressly modified by such Change Order, will automatically be deemed amended to incorporate the agreed-upon revisions to the Services and/or Service Fees. T-Mobile may withdraw any Change Order Request, or any other request for changes to the Services that is deemed under Section 1.4 to constitute a Material Change, at any time prior to agreeing in writing to the corresponding Change Order.

1.6 Additional Services.T-Mobile may request from time to time that Provider perform additional services for T-Mobile that are not contemplated by this Agreement. To effect any such request, T-Mobile may either (a) provide Provider with a proposal that describes such additional Services, and which may contain some or all of the information described in clauses (b)(i)-(iv) of this Section 1.6; or (b) request that Provider prepare and submit to T-Mobile a written proposal that: (i) if applicable, assesses the expected impact of such request on any Services then being provided hereunder; (ii) defines and describes how Provider would fulfill or satisfy such request, and describes any additional Services to be provided by Provider pursuant thereto in reasonable detail; (iii) sets forth or references proposed Specifications; and (iv) sets forth any other information required by this Agreement to be in a Statement of Work. No additional Statement of Work will be binding upon T-Mobile or Provider unless mutually agreed upon, executed and delivered by authorized signatories of both Parties.

1.7 Subcontracting.Provider shall not subcontract or otherwise delegate performance of any Services to anyone other than its own employees without the prior written consent of T-Mobile. Prior to requesting any such consent, Provider shall deliver to T-Mobile a reasonably detailed written explanation of the reasons for engaging the subcontractor and of the subcontractor’s qualifications and rates. Provider will not be relieved of its obligations under this Agreement by use of any such subcontractors and shall be responsible for any breach hereof caused in whole or in part by a subcontractor. Provider shall ensure that only contractors and subcontractors that (a) T-Mobile has approved in writing pursuant to this Section 1.7 and (b) have a need to know Personal Information (as defined in Section 11.1 below) may access such information, and only (a) if Provider requires such contractors and subcontractors to comply with obligations with respect to Personal Information that are no less stringent than those applicable to Provider; (b) to the extent that is necessary for Provider to fulfill its obligations under this Agreement; and (c) subject to the other terms and conditions of this Agreement. If T-Mobile determines that the performance or conduct of any subcontractor is unsatisfactory, T-Mobile may notify Provider of its determination in writing, indicating the reasons therefor, in which event Provider shall immediately take all commercially reasonable actions necessary to remedy the performance or conduct of such subcontractor.

1.8 No Solicitation.Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Provider (a) shall not contact any current, former or prospective customer of T-Mobile using any T-Mobile Confidential Information or Personal Information except as expressly provided under this Agreement, or to the extent that the T-Mobile customers are Provider’s own current or former employees and the contact is in Provider’s capacity as employer, or with T-Mobile’s express prior written consent; and (b) agrees that any and all messages sent to current, former and prospective T-Mobile customers using any T-Mobile Confidential Information or Personal Information, except as outlined in (a), however delivered (e.g., short messaging service, e-mail, telephone), are subject to T-Mobile’s prior written approval. Any such messages sent in the ordinary course of Provider providing Services pursuant to this Agreement, any Statement of Work, or the Standard Terms shall be deemed to have been sent with T-Mobile’s prior written approval.

1.9 Personnel Removal.Provider shall, upon receipt of T-Mobile’s written request to Provider’s VP of Operations and/or the appropriate Site management, promptly (and in no event more than twenty-four (24) hours after any such request) suspend from the Services any person whom T-Mobile determines in its reasonable discretion to be unsuitable, unqualified or otherwise objectionable, and shall provide a suitable replacement for any person so removed. When removing any personnel from the Services pursuant to this Section 1.9, Provider shall ensure that such suspended persons do not provide any Services, any activities in support of the Services or engage in any other activities limited by this Agreement to Provider employees (including, without limitation, by ensuring that such persons cannot access any T-Mobile Confidential Information (defined in Section 10.1) or T-Mobile Resources (defined in Section 2), and deactivating any T-Mobile-associated log-ins or other access controls for such persons).

Following and/or concurrent to such suspension, Provider shall conduct an investigation evaluating T-Mobile’s request. Provider shall determine any action to be taken against its personnel in accordance with its policies and procedures, provided however, such personnel shall not be permitted to provide or resume provision of Services under this Agreement without the express written consent of T-Mobile

2. System Compatibility.If T-Mobile provides Provider information that is reasonably sufficient, Provider shall design to ensure that (a) all Facilities are successfully interfaced with, and compatible with, the services, systems, items and other resources of T-Mobile and its third-party service providers with which the Facilities will interoperate (collectively, the "T-Mobile Resources”); (b) all Facilities meet the requirements, specifications and performance targets as to system capacity, volume, response times and all other performance metrics specified in the Specifications; and (c) no Services or other items provided to T-Mobile by Provider will be adversely affected by, or will adversely affect, any T-Mobile Resources or any services provided by any such third-party providers in any material respect, whether as to functionality, speed, service levels, interconnectivity, reliability, availability, performance, response times or otherwise.

3. Information Security.Provider shall ensure the security of all Facilities, and will be fully responsible for any unauthorized collection, access, use and disclosure of Personal Information or other T-Mobile Confidential Information. Without limiting the foregoing, Provider shall implement and maintain administrative, physical and technical safeguards that are designed to prevent any collection, use or disclosure of, or access to, T-Mobile Confidential Information that this Agreement does not expressly authorize (“Safeguards”), including, without limitation, (a) an information security program that meets the highest standards of best industry practice to safeguard T-Mobile Confidential Information; (b) maintaining on Provider’s premises a secure location (that may include electronic storage), in which any and all T-Mobile Confidential Information is stored; (c) ensuring that any T-Mobile Confidential Information is accessible only by Authorized Employees (as defined below); (d) training its Authorized Employees regarding their confidentiality obligations hereunder; (f) ensuring that Personal Information is disseminated only to the minimum possible number of Provider’s full-time employees who have a need to know or otherwise access Personal Information to enable Provider to perform its obligations hereunder, and who are bound in writing by obligations of confidentiality sufficient to protect the Personal Information in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (each, an “Authorized Employee”); and (g) ensuring that all T-Mobile Confidential Information provided or made accessible to Provider under this Agreement that is stored, transmitted or otherwise processed outside of the United States is secured by industry-standard encryption at all times, both at rest and in transit.

Provider further agrees that it shall use appropriate precautions with respect to the employment of and access afforded to Provider personnel, including, without limitation, background checks and security clearances that assign specific access and modification privileges to individuals, appropriate policies and procedures that prohibit portable storage media, camera phones and other media or recording devices in all non-management areas at any Site (including, but not limited to, any call-handling areas), and a disciplinary process to address any unauthorized access, use or disclosure of Personal Information by any of Provider’s officers, partners, principals, employees, agents or independent contractors.

This shall not be a condition precedent to either Party’ power to seek or obtain injunctive relief for breach of this Agreement.

4.4 No Termination or Suspension of Services.Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, and even if any dispute arises between the Parties, in no event will Provider interrupt or delay the provision of Services to T-Mobile or perform any other action that prevents, slows or reduces in any way the provision of Services or T-Mobile’s ability to conduct its business, unless: (a) authority to do so is granted by the Senior Director for Service Partner Management (or more senior corporate officer) of T-Mobile in writing or conferred by a court of competent jurisdiction; or (b) this Agreement or the applicable Statement(s) of Work has been terminated pursuant to Section 6.

10.1 Confidential Information.The Parties acknowledge that each may be given access to certain confidential, proprietary or secret information including, but not limited to, financial information, Personal Information and other information regarding that Party’s business, organization, operations and plans (collectively, “Confidential Information”) under this Agreement. All Confidential Information will be the sole and exclusive property of the Party providing such information, and the receiving Party will not have any ownership interest in such Confidential Information or engage in any derivatives uses thereof. The receiving Party shall (a) use at least the same degree of care to prevent unauthorized use and disclosure of Confidential Information received from the other Party as the receiving Party uses with respect to its own confidential information (but in no event less than a reasonable degree of care); (b) use the other Party’s Confidential Information only in performance of its obligations or exercise of its rights under this Agreement; and (c) not disclose or grant access to such Confidential Information to any third party, without the express prior written consent of the disclosing Party. Consent is hereby given to disclose Confidential Information to each Party’s employees, consultants and service providers, but only (i) on a need-to-know basis and (ii) where the recipients are obligated (1) to maintain the confidentiality of such information as outlined under this Agreement and (2) to use it solely for the purpose for which it was provided under this Agreement.

In a circumstance in which disclosure is compelled under this subsection 10.2 the Party that is subject to such compelled disclosure shall give the other Party prompt prior notice of such compelled disclosure, unless prohibited by law or governmental or court order so that the other Party may seek to protect such information, and shall cooperate with the other Party to obtain a protective order or other reasonable assurance that confidential treatment will be afforded.

10.3 Return or Destruction of Confidential Information.The receiving Party shall return, or at the disclosing Party’s option, delete and destroy (and certify in writing such return or deletion and destruction) any and all Confidential Information in the receiving Party’s possession or control to the disclosing Party upon any termination of this Agreement and upon written request of the disclosing party from time to time.

STANDARD TERMS AND CONDITIONS

These Standard Terms and Conditions (“Standard Terms”) are to be attached to and incorporated into the Services Agreement between T-Mobile USA, Inc. (“T-Mobile”) and StarTek USA, Inc. (“Provider”) dated as of October 1, 2007 (for purposes of these Standard Terms, the “Services Agreement”). Unless otherwise specified, terms defined in the body of the Services Agreement shall have the same meanings when used in these Standard Terms with initial letters capitalized.

1.	Services.The Services will consist of receiving inbound customer service calls from T-Mobile customers (“Inbound Calls”); handling such Inbound Calls according to Specifications, including, without limitation, placing outbound calls to address Customer Care matters relating to such Inbound Calls (“Outbound Calls” and, together with Inbound Calls, “Calls”); and addressing all other matters provided for in the Services Agreement, these Standard Terms, one or more applicable Statements of Work and other applicable Specifications (collectively, this “Agreement”). Provider shall maintain a dedicated program to perform the Services. By way of illustration, and not limitation, Provider’s customer-facing representatives dedicated to the T-Mobile LOBs (“Agents”) will handle only T-Mobile calls, Provider’s team supervisors (“Supervisors”) will support only T-Mobile-dedicated Agents, and Provider’s team managers (“Managers”) will support only T-Mobile-dedicated Supervisors to perform the Services.
2.	Operation.Except as otherwise set forth expressly in an applicable Statement of Work, Provider shall provide the Services [*] hours per day, [*] days per year. All hours shall be defined in Pacific Time. Provider will not change or attempt to change the hours of operation for any T-Mobile LOB at any Site without prior written approval by a Director (or more senior executive) of T-Mobile. Provider shall not close or limit performance at any Site or reallocate any Provider employees to another physical location without first providing T-Mobile at least [*] days’ written notification thereof and a comprehensive written plan therefor that sets forth in detail how Provider will maintain the Services performed at such Site and will mitigate the impact of such change while preventing tangible and intangible costs to T-Mobile.
3.	FTEs.

3.1.	FTEs.Provider shall utilize Full-Time Equivalents (“FTEs”) in regard to scheduling, staffing, production and reporting. An FTE shall be defined as forty (40) hours of Services per week performed by an Agent, and an FTE is not equivalent to headcount. A headcount (“Headcount”) is equivalent to a person.
3.2.	Classification of FTEs.FTEs will be classified into the following categories with respect to each LOB:

3.2.1.	Production FTEs, which are FTEs performed by Agents who, having graduated from New Hire Training and TCC (each defined below), currently provide Services productive to the applicable LOB (“Production”);
3.2.2.	Training FTEs, which are FTEs performed by Agents in training and, as such, not yet eligible to engage in Production with respect to the applicable LOB;

3.2.4. LOA FTEs, which consist of Agents who cannot be classified into Production, Training or TCC with respect to the applicable LOB.

4. Forecasting.

4.1.	[*]-Month Forecast.T-Mobile shall deliver a [*]-month rolling forecast to Provider for each LOB (and, if applicable, each Site and skill), containing nonbinding forecasts of expected weekly call volume (“Volume”) for such period (each, a “[*]-Month Forecast”), on or before the fifteenth (15th) day of each calendar month during the Term (each, a “Month”).
4.2.	Final Forecast.T-Mobile shall deliver to Provider an updated daily Volume and AHT forecast for each LOB (and, if applicable, each Site and skill) for each Month no later than [*] days prior to such Month (“Final Forecast”), which will vary no more than [*] percent ([*]%) in call volume each week from the [*]-Day forecast. If the Final Forecast for an LOB or Site is not delivered in a timely fashion with respect to a particular Month, then, unless otherwise agreed upon by the Parties, who shall act reasonably with respect thereto, the portion of the most recent [*]-Month Forecast applicable to such Month shall be deemed the Final Forecast for such Month for that particular LOB or Site.
4.3.	[*] Forecasts.For informational purposes only—and not for purposes of any KPI calculations or other substantive matters hereunder—T-Mobile shall deliver to Provider a [*] forecast of expected Volume and AHT for each LOB.

5. Scheduling.Provider shall schedule an appropriate number of FTEs in half-hour intervals for each Month in accordance with the applicable Final Forecast. Within five (5) days of receiving a Final Forecast applicable to a given Month, Provider shall provide to T-Mobile a schedule of FTEs for such Month that details Provider’s FTEs for each half-hour period during such Month. Such schedule shall be accompanied by plans that illustrate Provider’s plans for meeting the KPIs in the Specifications applicable to such Month (each, a “KPI Plan”). Each KPI Plan shall include the number of required FTEs to meet the KPIs, the number of scheduled FTEs and the half-hourly service level objectives set forth in the Final Forecast, and all assumptions used by Provider to translate the Final Forecast into scheduled FTEs.

5.1.	The Parties shall cooperate to manage intraday schedule adjustments to manage actual Volume, and shall mutually agree upon and participate in the preparation of other Volume forecasts as reasonably required to meet the objectives of this Agreement. Such forecasts may include, but are not limited to, yearly, quarterly, monthly, weekly, daily and interval forecasts.
5.2.	Provider shall provide to T-Mobile a dedicated senior call management-planning specialist who will advise and assist T-Mobile regarding various matters related to the Services, including, without limitation, development of Volume forecasts for each LOB. Provider shall, upon T-Mobile’s reasonable request, replace such specialist with a specialist approved by T-Mobile.
5.3.	For each Month, with respect to the applicable KPI Plan, Provider shall recruit, train and staff Agents to at least [*] percent ([*]%) of the required FTE and to handle [*] percent ([*]%) of required Volume. In the event that the Volume forecast in a Final Forecast for a given Month exceeds the Volume in the Final Forecast for the immediately preceding Month by [*] percent ([*]%) or more, Provider may add additional Agents to service such increase; provided, that Provider may only add additional Agents under this Section 5.3 with the prior written consent of T-Mobile, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.
5.4.	In the event that the Production FTE count falls more than [*] percent ([*]%) below the FTE required to handle the Volume forecast for any Month in any [*]-Month Forecast, Provider shall recruit and hire Agents to back-fill such attrition. Provider shall commence training of such new hires within [*] days of Production FTE falling [*] percent ([*]%) below the forecasted required FTE.

T-Mobile USA Confidential

5.5.	Provider shall provide the forecasted required FTEs for the Term; provided, that Provider shall increase or decrease the number of FTEs upon T-Mobile’s written request given to Provider (a) at least [*] days in advance, if the requested increase or decrease is [*] percent ([*]%) or less; or (b) at least [*] days in advance, if the requested increase or decrease is greater than [*] percent ([*]%).
5.6.	T-Mobile may reduce forecast Volume at any time by more than [*] percent ([*]%) if: (a) Provider is staffed at less than [*] percent ([*]%) of forecasted required FTE for such LOB; or (b) Adjusted Service Level for such LOB or skill is substandard
5.7.	No [*]-Month Forecast, Final Forecast or other forecast provided for in this Agreement, or T-Mobile’s acknowledgment of FTE or any metric forecast in a KPI Plan or otherwise, shall in any way represent T-Mobile’s promise or commitment to provide any given volume or amount of anything to Provider.

6.	Average Handle Time.“Average Handle Time,” or “AHT,” with respect to Calls handled by Provider in performing the Services with respect to a particular LOB or Site, means the sum of (a) with respect to Inbound Calls, (i) average talk time on such Calls; (ii) average hold time while on such Calls and (iii) average time spent on after-Call work relating to such Calls; and (b) with respect to Outbound Calls, (i) average dialing and connection time for such Calls; (ii) average hold time while on such Calls; (iii) average talk time while on such Calls; and (iv) average time spent on post-Call work relating to such Calls. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in no event will any components of AHT overlap (e.g., if an Agent is on hold while handling one Call, and simultaneously performing post-Call work for another, such handling may only be attributed to one Call at any given time for purposes of AHT calculations). Provider shall use commercially reasonable efforts to meet or exceed the AHT goal, which may vary by LOB and skill set, as provided in the Statement of Work. Such AHT goal may be revised from time to time by mutual written agreement of the Parties based upon historical trending, changing call components or other mutually agreed material change.
7.	Ramp.“Ramp” means, with respect to any LOB or Site, any material FTE increase requested by T-Mobile or otherwise implemented by Provider in order to meet its obligations under this Agreement. “Ramp Plan” means a plan developed by Provider to implement a Ramp. Before implementing any Ramp Plan, Provider must submit a proposal of such Ramp Plan to T-Mobile for written approval by an Operations Senior Manager (or more senior corporate executive or manager) of T-Mobile. No Ramp Plan may be implemented without such approval. In the event of a new Ramp Plan for a given LOB, or a change to the General Customer Care LOB supported by Provider, the AHT monthly objectives for such LOB shall be adjusted in accordance with the procedure set forth in applicable Specifications.
8.	Training.

8.1.	Provider Training Obligation.Provider shall train all Agents in accordance with, and shall abide by all terms and conditions of, this Section 8 (“Training”).

8.3.	Costs and Expenses of Training.All costs and expenses for New Hire Training (defined in Section 8.5 below), training materials for new Agents and any initial and program extension training or changes or modifications to the Training program or continuing education training that exceeds [*] hours per Agent per month will be borne by T-Mobile, subject to Section 8.4 below. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if any Agent does not engage in full-time Production for a given T-Mobile LOB or Site at any time within [*] months of first performing Production for such LOB or Site, then Provider shall ensure such Agent completes all necessary training to effectively resume Production in such way that is not lesser than a recent training graduate. If Provider does not ensure the completion of such necessary training prior to the Agent returning to Production, Provider shall reimburse T-Mobile for all of T-Mobile’s costs of Training attributable to that Agent (such costs as determined by T-Mobile in its sole discretion). Provider shall pay to T-Mobile such costs or reflect the same as a service credit on an invoice to T-Mobile. Provider shall use online Training options in lieu of printed materials wherever reasonably available and shall reuse written materials where reasonably possible. Documented Training trackers must accompany all invoices for approval of Services Fees under this Agreement. Such trackers shall contain Agent name, Agent Training start date, Agent Training graduation date, Agent T-Mobile log-ins, attendance record and assessment and quality scores for each module; provided, that if any of the foregoing data elements may not be contained in trackers under applicable Law, then Provider shall (a) cite such applicable Law in writing to T-Mobile and (b) include in such trackers all such data elements as allowed by applicable Law. Provider shall track all continuing education classes via an auxiliary (AUX) or automatic call distributor (ACD) code and shall submit information regarding the same monthly with other reports required hereunder. Such information shall include each Agent’s name, the exact amount of time such Agent spent in each Training course, the name of each such Training course, and the total time in the month spent by such Agent in continuing education training. Provider shall deliver all appropriate Training within the timeframes provided in applicable Training curricula, subject to reasonable KPI considerations.
8.4.	Additional Training; Attrition Training; Removed Personnel.Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 8, if Provider fails to meet any applicable KPIs, then, if T-Mobile determines that additional “skill set” Training may help Provider meet such KPIs, Provider shall perform such Training in accordance with this Section 8 and shall bear all costs and expenses thereof. All costs associated with Training necessitated by attrition or T-Mobile requests for removal of personnel pursuant to Section 1.9 of the Services Agreement, including, but not limited to, new trainers and any associated materials, shall be borne by Provider.
8.5.	New Hire Training.No Agent will perform Production for any T-Mobile LOB who has not completed the T-Mobile New Hire Training Curriculum and graduated from TCC in accordance with this Section 8 (“New Hire Training”). [*]. T-Mobile may modify the T-Mobile New Hire Training Curriculum from time to time in its discretion in any and all respects, including, without limitation, with respect to content and hours required for completion; provided, however, that T-Mobile shall provide Provider with [*] days’ notice of any such changes, and provided further, that any changes that will materially impact Provider’s costs must be mutually agreed to by the Parties, who shall act reasonably in respect thereto. Any New Hire Training as a result of ramp or net growth must be approved in writing by a T-Mobile Senior Manager or more senior official. Provider will submit an approved baseline report. Such written approval must be attached to any and all invoices on which any New Hire Training is cited or listed as a basis for billing T-Mobile.

Provider shall promptly remove from the Services any Agent who shares or discloses application IDs in these manners (and shall provide a suitable replacement for the removed Agent and immediately notify T-Mobile of such removal).
8.5.2.	Access to T-Mobile Training-related Materials.Provider shall report to T-Mobile Training staff any Provider employee who no longer contributes to Production who has had access to T-Mobile Training-related materials and websites, such as CCS printing. Such reporting shall not relieve Provider of its obligation to maintain the confidentiality of T-Mobile Confidential Information and to ensure that its employees, agents and permitted subcontractors remain bound to maintain such confidentiality after termination of employment, engagement or other relationship with Provider.
8.5.3.	Attendance and Absenteeism.Provider shall only graduate a new hire Agent from New Hire Training to Production if such Agent has completed all required Training time and satisfied the requirements of this Section 8.5.3 and Section 8.5.4. If an Agent missed any Training classes or activities, such classes or activities (or an equivalent approved by T-Mobile) must be made up prior to such Agent’s graduation from New Hire Training or participation in Production.

8.5.6.	Training Standards.Provider shall ensure that all Training Managers and Training Quality Managers utilize T-Mobile’s Training Manager Toolkit (or Provider’s comparable documentation as pre-approved by T-Mobile) to manage, observe, assess and monitor Trainer performance. Provider shall, upon T-Mobile’s request, provide assessment and monitoring information gathered from the Training Manager Toolkit to T-Mobile.

8.6. Streamline Read Time.Provider shall schedule time for each Agent to read Streamline (“Streamline Read Time”) prior to each Agent shift in the amount of [*] minutes per day and no more than [*] minutes per Agent per week.

Provider shall attain, and demonstrate through reporting, [*] percent ([*]%) or greater aggregate Agent utilization of Streamline Read Time.

9.	Escalation Procedures.Provider shall utilize T-Mobile-provided escalation policies and procedures to handle Calls beyond a given Agent’s scope of training or where management support of a T-Mobile customer issue is necessary or appropriate. Unless expressly provided to the contrary in such T-Mobile-provided policies and procedures, Provider shall ensure that each Call that cannot be handled effectively by an Agent is handled by the Supervisor and up to the Manager before being transferred to T-Mobile for resolution. If a customer requires management support, Provider shall cause its Agents to transfer the call to a Manager, who will attempt to resolve the issue before transferring the Call to T-Mobile.

Overtime.

13.1.	If Volume on a given day will exceed that forecast in the Final Forecast by more than [*] percent ([*]%), Provider shall so notify T-Mobile and shall recruit trained Agents to handle such excess Volume (“Overtime”). If Volume exceeds that forecast in the Final Forecast by [*] percent ([*]%) or less, Provider shall recruit Agents to cover such excess and Provider shall be responsible for any expenses related thereto. Provider shall obtain prior written approval from T-Mobile for any other purported overtime that Provider believes may be required or incurred for the performance of the Services. T-Mobile will not compensate Provider for, and Provider will not invoice T-Mobile for, any Overtime unless such Overtime is approved in writing by T-Mobile in advance. T-Mobile agrees to pay Provider the Overtime rate set forth in the Pricing Schedule for all Volume handled in excess of [*] percent ([*]%) of that set forth in the Final Forecast, where such Overtime has been pre-approved in writing by T-Mobile.
13.2.	Provider shall employ the recruiting process for Overtime as soon as the circumstance causing the Volume variance is identified. If Provider identifies such circumstance at least [*] weeks before its expected occurrence, Provider shall use all reasonable efforts to minimize the financial impact of Overtime by modifying schedules to support the required staffing. Provider shall also recruit Agents to work overtime on a day-to-day basis when the intra-day Volume dictates additional staffing needs to maintain KPI goals.
13.3.	Overtime for the purposes of invoice payment at Overtime rates will be calculated by interval using the following formula: interval handled Volume in excess of [*] percent ([*]%) of the forecast volume multiplied by the lesser of interval AHT and [*] percent ([*]%) of the KPI AHT, such sum divided by [*]. These are the billable overtime minutes where T-Mobile has solicited overtime.

14. KPIs.The KPIs will be as follows for all LOBs at all Sites, unless explicitly specified to the contrary in an applicable Statement of Work. KPI performance will be used for adjustments to bonuses and/or penalties in accordance with the Pricing Schedule.

14.1. Average Handle Time (AHT).AHT shall be calculated as defined in Section 6 above, subject to adjustment during Ramp as set forth in Section 7 above. The AHT goal may, upon written agreement of the Parties, be adjusted based upon material changes to Call type and/or length.

14.3.	Call Volume.Provider shall answer the Volume provided in the applicable Final Forecasts. Handled Volume that exceeds the applicable Final Forecast by [*] percent ([*]%) for any half-hour interval, where Service Level KPIs are not met, will not be included in the Service Level KPI calculation for the applicable Month.
14.4.	Call Quality.Call Quality (“Quality”) will be measured as set forth in this Section 14.4.

14.4.1. For the purposes of ensuring Call quality, Provider and T-Mobile shall measure Agents’ Quality for all Agents handling calls, regardless of tenure or other factors, using the following types of observations:

14.4.1.1.	T-Mobile observation;
14.4.1.2.	Provider operations observation (minimum [*] per Agent/month);
14.4.1.3.	Provider quality observation (minimum [*] per Agent/month)

14.4.2.	The Quality KPI will be calculated based solely upon T-Mobile call quality scores. Provider operations and quality observations, while required, are collected for the purpose of providing immediate and monthly feedback to Agents and Provider management.
14.4.3.	For the purposes of billing, the scores for all of these observations will be amalgamated and a weighted average monthly score will be calculated. The Parties shall calibrate the assessments of Service Partner operations and Service Partner quality observations to within [*] of the T-Mobile weighted Quality score per Month. If either the Service Partner operations or the Service Partner quality observation is not calibrated as set forth above, the non-calibrated by-group will not be included in the billable quality score for the month.
14.4.4.	Provider shall cause all of its management, from Coach up to Site Director, including, but not limited to, training leadership, Quality Managers, and QA Specialists to attend at least [*] National Calibrations for their respective LOBs per month. T-Mobile shall notify and keep Provider informed as to the number of calibration sessions required for each LOB, such number not to exceed [*] per LOB per week.
14.4.5.	Provider shall use the Quality observation form(s) provided by T-Mobile, as T-Mobile may update the same from time to time. Provider shall use the data it obtains under this Section 14.4 to provide both immediate and monthly feedback to Agents, Managers, Supervisors and Provider management. Provider shall use its best efforts to provide each Agent with feedback and coaching within [*] hours of being monitored by T-Mobile, the Provider quality team or Provider operations. Provider shall keep written documentation of each feedback and coaching session. Provider shall ensure that such documentation is signed by the Agent and shall make all such documentation available to T-Mobile for review upon request. The Quality scoring criteria used by Provider shall match that used by T-Mobile. Call monitoring feedback sessions will be held between the Agent and the Agent’s direct supervisor and Provider’s Quality Team. Any monitored Calls containing an Agent’s use of profanity or customer abuse (as determined by T-Mobile) will result in immediate and permanent removal of such Agent from all T-Mobile LOBs.

In addition, Provider shall provide reports to T-Mobile reflecting measurements of all KPIs and other metrics described in this Section 15 within [*] days of each Month end. All reporting fed by data from the switch, any scheduling systems used to provide the Services, or by any other Facilities is not subject to non-standard report development costs. Provider shall include payroll reports with any reports regarding LOBs for which any amount is billed on an hourly basis, and such payroll reports must substantiate that billable hours do not exceed actual hours worked. T-Mobile and Provider shall mutually agree upon any other reports and the allocation of costs associated with development and provision of those reports. T-Mobile may request changes to the format of any reports to be provided under this Agreement; provided, that if T-Mobile requests material changes to the format of any reports provided for in this Section 15, Provider shall prepare a reasonable estimate of the expected costs related to such format change, based upon the Specified Labor Rate outlined in the Pricing Schedule, and shall not implement such format change without the prior written approval of T-Mobile. T-Mobile agrees to compensate Provider for its costs related to such format change; provided, that such costs will in no event exceed those approved in advance by T-Mobile in writing.

Monitoring.T-Mobile will have the right (but not the obligation), to the extent permitted by applicable Law and at no additional expense, to monitor at any time (either on-site or remotely) Calls and/or specific Agents to ensure compliance with KPIs and other applicable performance, operational and quality control standards. Provider shall provide T-Mobile with a secured remote monitoring solution and sufficient licenses to monitor no less than [*] calls per Agent per [*]. T-Mobile does not guarantee, however, that any Agent will be monitored more or less often than on [*] calls per [*], nor that any given Agent will be monitored at all. Any remote monitoring solution used by Provider to meet its obligations under this Section 16 shall meet such requirements (as to vendor, product, service, program or other factors) as T-Mobile may identify in writing before the Effective Date. Specific matters related to the implementation of the primary remote monitoring solution will be negotiated and mutually agreed upon by the Parties. In addition to the required primary monitoring tool, Provider must provide a toll-free dialup that allows T-Mobile to both monitor random calls as they come into the queue and to monitor specific agents, located by extension. Provider shall provide T-Mobile with security codes for such dialup access that allow T-Mobile to remotely monitor each individual specified by T-Mobile, and shall ensure that any such dialup access uses commercially reasonable security measures to prevent unauthorized access to, and use and disclosure of, the data stored in or retrievable by the remote monitoring solution. Provider shall use best efforts to ensure that access to both the primary and the toll-free dialup monitoring options have full connectivity within [*] days of the launch of a new Site or LOB. Provider shall use best efforts to ensure such access, and to the extent that lack of access is within the scope of control of Provider, for each [*] period in excess of such [*] period, Provider will pay to T-Mobile an amount equal to [*] percent ([*] %) of the Services Fees for one Month. Provider shall reflect such amount on the corresponding Month’s invoice or on a standalone credit memo corresponding to the date of the invoice. The rights and remedies of T-Mobile under this Section are in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other right or remedy afforded to T-Mobile under any other provision of this Agreement, by law or otherwise.

18.1.	Neither Provider nor any person or entity acting on Provider’s behalf will perform maintenance that could reasonably be expected to materially affect performance of the Services (“Maintenance”) except as set forth in this Section 18.1. In no event will interruption of Services for system maintenance constitute a failure of performance by Provider if Provider is in compliance with this Section 18. In the event Provider determines that any Maintenance is necessary, Provider shall notify T-Mobile of such necessity no later than [*] days before the date and time, if any, on which Provider proposes that such Maintenance be performed, and will commence such maintenance only on date(s) and time(s) for which T-Mobile has provided written approval. Provider shall ensure that all routine Maintenance takes place during off-peak or off-system hours.
18.2.	Provider shall immediately report to T-Mobile any failures, disruptions or material deprecation in performance of any Facilities.

18.4.

Where Provider is unable to perform the Services due to a failure of Facilities or T-Mobile Resources (“Downtime”), and such Downtime is due to a material failure of the T-Mobile Resources of which Provider had less than [*] hours advance notice from T-Mobile, then, assuming Provider is not in breach or default of any obligation under this Agreement, T-Mobile agrees to pay Service Fees for such Downtime based upon multiplying the forecasted volume for such intervals by the base rate set forth in the Rate Chart set forth in Section A of Schedule 1 to Standard Terms — Pricing, and dividing by [*]. Where actual AHT is unavailable due to zero (0) volume, the lesser of [*] percent ([*]%) of the KPI AHT and the actual AHT from the same interval and same day for the previous week will be substituted.

18.5.

Where Downtime is a result of failure of any Facilities that is not a force majeure event under Section 13.5 of the Services Agreement, and Provider is unable to accept the Volume T-Mobile is otherwise prepared to provide, then, for the purpose of determining KPI penalties, Provider shall use the Volume forecast in the applicable Final Forecast to determine KPI performance for the applicable time interval(s).

19.

Allocation of Resources.T-Mobile acknowledges that upon the occurrence of a force majeure event or in instances of unforeseeable and unusually high demand, demands on the Facilities may exceed such Facilities’ capacity. In any such instance, Provider may, upon written notice to T-Mobile, equitably prioritize Services and otherwise curtail utilization of the Facilities in a manner so that any degradation to the Services provided to T-Mobile is no greater than the level of degradation experienced by any other customer of Provider. In the event of any such prioritization or curtailment, T-Mobile will in no event pay Provider Service Fees for affected intervals based upon any Volume greater than that actually handled by Provider during such intervals. Upon the request of T-Mobile, Provider shall provide T-Mobile with reasonable evidence of its compliance with this Section 19.

The Service Fees will, for a given LOB and/or Site, consist of Billable Minutes (defined in Section 23.2 below) multiplied by the applicable rate(s) set forth in the Pricing Schedule, as modified by any penalties, bonuses or other adjustments in accordance with the procedure outlined therein and otherwise in accordance with this Agreement. In the event that Agents can be cross-utilized (and are sufficiently cross-trained) across LOB’s in a fashion pre-approved by T-Mobile in an effort to keep them productive, as well as to meet and maintain Service Level, such scenario shall be applied to the determination of Billable Minutes as set forth in 23.2 of the Standard Terms.

23.2.

“Billable Minutes,” for purposes of this Statement of Work, will have one of the following meanings:

23.2.1.

If, with respect to a given LOB, (a) Provider is staffed at no less than [*] percent ([*]%) of forecasted required weekly FTE for such LOB, and (b) Provider is meeting the Service Level KPI at set forth in 14.2 of the Standard Terms, and modified by 14.3 of the Standard Terms, Billable Minutes means the correlating rate in column “Reg” as compared to the percentage of volume offered against Forecast as set forth in column “% Offered to Forecast” in the Rate Chart set forth in Section A Schedule 1 to Standard Terms — Pricing.

23.2.2.

With respect to the holidays defined in 17 of the Standard Terms, if, with respect to a given LOB, (a) Provider is staffed at no less than [*] percent ([*]%) of forecasted required weekly FTE for such LOB, and (b) Provider is meeting the Service Level KPI at set forth in 14.2 of the Standard Terms, and modified by 14.3 of the Standard Terms, Billable Minutes means the correlating rate in column “Hol/OT ([*]%)” as compared to the percentage of volume offered against Forecast as set forth in column “% Offered to Forecast” in the Rate Chart set forth in Section A Schedule 1 to Standard Terms — Pricing. Such shall be specific to the day of the holiday, irrespective of meeting the requirements in 23.2.1.

23.4.	Forecast Adjustments.Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, (a) in the event that T-Mobile terminates this Agreement or the Services to be performed at any Site and/or for any LOB, the applicable Final Forecast(s) will automatically be amended to provide for zero (0) volume from and after the effectiveness of such termination; and (b) in the event that T-Mobile notifies Provider of any termination of this Agreement or the Services to be performed at any Site or for any LOB, T-Mobile may amend any and all existing Final Forecast(s) applicable to all dates subsequent to such notice.
23.5.	Downtime Payments.

23.5.1.	During Downtime caused by a failure of T-Mobile Resources, then, if Provider is staffed at no less than [*] percent ([*]%) of forecasted required FTE at such Site and/or for such LOB, Billable Minutes means multiplying the forecasted volume for such intervals by the base rate set forth in the Rate Chart set forth in Section A of Schedule 1 to Standard Terms — Pricing, and dividing by [*]. Where actual AHT is unavailable due to zero (0) volume caused by such Downtime, the lesser of [*] percent ([*]%) of the KPI AHT and the actual AHT from the same interval and same day the previous week will be substituted.
23.5.2.	In the event of any Downtime caused by anything other than a force majeure event under Section 13.5 of the Services Agreement, or a failure of T-Mobile Resources, and if Provider cannot or does not accept the Volume T-Mobile is otherwise prepared to provide, then, for the purposes of determining KPI penalties, Provider shall use the forecasted volume in the applicable Final Forecast to determine service levels for such Downtime period.
23.5.3.	T-Mobile agrees to pay to Provider an hourly rate as listed in the Pricing Schedule for the actual minutes of processing Downtime forms in accordance with Section 13 above.

23.6.

Costs and Expenses.Unless explicitly provided to the contrary in these Standard Terms, Provider shall be responsible for all costs and expenses related to recruitment, training and staffing of Agents, specialists and other personnel required to provide the Services on the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including, without limitation, wages, benefits and tax withholding, and all costs related thereto). In no event will Provider bill T-Mobile for any such costs or expenses.

23.7.

Overtime.Overtime will not be billed unless T-Mobile has provided written approval of such overtime. Overtime will be calculated one of two ways:

23.7.1.

Overtime for excess volume handling.Excess volume handling overtime will be calculated by interval using the following formula: interval handled Volume in excess of [*] percent ([*]%) multiplied by the lesser of [*] percent ([*]%) of the KPI AHT and interval AHT, such sum divided by [*].

23.7.2.

Overtime for redundancy mitigation.From time to time, T-Mobile may request overtime Services to help mitigate the inability of another site (whether internal to T-Mobile or another Provider) to take volume.
