ENGLEWOOD, Colo.–TeleTech Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: TTEC), one of the largest global providers of technology-enabled business process outsourcing (“BPO”), revenue generation and on-demand solutions, today announced it has secured a five-year, $350 million revolving credit facility with expanded foreign borrower and multi-currency flexibility.

The $350 million facility represents a $125 million increase from the Company’s previous $225 million facility and includes a $150 million accordion provision, providing TeleTech with an option to increase the size to $500 million. The new facility will be used to fund working capital, growth initiatives and other strategic pursuits.

“In light of tightened credit markets, the size, flexibility and length of our new credit facility reflects the strength of our cash flows and balance sheet with $126 million in net cash at June 30th, along with the overwhelming support of our corporate bank group,” said Kenneth Tuchman, chairman and chief executive officer of TeleTech. “Although our previous credit facility was not set to mature until September 2011, we chose to take advantage of the attractive market conditions to secure more flexible, longer term access to capital to support TeleTech’s growth initiatives.”

KeyBank N.A. (NYSE: KEY) is the lead bank on the new credit facility with participation from eight other prestigious banks including Wells Fargo Bank, Bank of America Merrill Lynch, JPMorgan Chase Bank, BBVA Compass Bank, HSBC Bank USA, Citi, Bank of the West and The Northern Trust Company. The facility will mature on September 30, 2015.
