(MIP)
Corporate SG&A for
Managers and Above
Effective: January 1, 2012
2012 Stream Global Services Management Incentive Plan
Corporate SG&A for Managers and Above
1. | Purpose |
The objective of the 2012 Stream Global Services Management Incentive Plan Corporate SG&A for Managers and Above (the Plan) is to recognize and reward the achievement of company-wide growth and profitability objectives that are essential to the success of Stream Global Services, Inc. (Stream or the Company).
2. | Effective Date |
The effective date for implementation of the Plan shall be January 1, 2012.
3. | Eligibility |
Employees in Corporate SG&A at the manager level and above whose roles and responsibilities are deemed by executive management to be critical to operations and/or who have direct responsibility for achieving the financial results of the Company are eligible for participation in the Plan. (Each such designated person is called a Participant in this Plan.) Target payouts, plan components and component weightings are defined by the Participants position, as further set forth below.
Stream will issue all Participants a notice of their eligibility and their individual components by providing a document in the form of Appendix B (the Plan Notice). Other eligibility requirements are listed in Section 7 below, and an individual may only become a Participant by complying with those requirements.
4. | Target and Target Components |
Participants will be assigned an annual target payout for the Plan as specified in the applicable Plan Notice (the Target). The Target will vary according to the Participants position and may be expressed as a percentage of base salary or as a specified amount. The Target represents the potential financial award that will be earned at 100% achievement of goals for all Plan components, as described below, at year-end.
Actual Plan payouts will be based on the following Plan components: (a) the achievement of the Company of its 2012 Revenue Plan (Revenue Performance) (b) the performance of the Company against its Customer Value Pass Rate objectives in 2012 (CV Pass Rate Performance) and (c) the performance of the individual Participant in 2012 (Individual Performance). Plan payouts will be calculated based upon the 2012 annual financial performance of the Company and its affiliates (Corporate Financial Performance). Targets are weighted based on the Participants job level in accordance with Table 1 below to reflect the Participants ability to influence Company performance.

5. | Measurement and Payment |
Each Participants Target payout shall be determined after the end of the 2012 calendar year based upon achievement of the individual performance objectives applicable to the Participant. In the event that any of the Revenue Performance, CV Pass Rate Performance or Individual Performance objectives is not achieved for a Participant, the Participant shall not be eligible to receive any Target payout in respect of such objective. After determination of the objectives that were achieved for the Participant in 2012, the Participants Target shall be adjusted to reflect only those applicable objectives that were achieved (the Achieved Target). For example, if a Director Participant did not achieve the Individual Performance objective but the Revenue Performance and CV Pass Rate Performance objectives were achieved, the Participants Achieved Target would be equal to 85% of the Target (i.e., the Target less the 15% attributable to the Directors Individual Performance).
Calculation will be subject to the completion of the Stream Global Services 2012 external audit by Ernst & Young and the 2012 Performance Management process. In the event that the Company fails to achieve the Corporate Financial Performance Threshold, as defined below, no Plan payouts will be made, regardless of the achievement of the Revenue Performance objective, the CV Pass Rate Performance objective or the Individual Performance objective.
Following the completion of the 2012 external audit of the Company, the Plan payouts that are due to each Participant will be calculated in accordance with this Plan and paid in accordance with the Companys normal payroll practices.

6. | The Plan Components |
The Management Incentive Plan payout for each Participant will be dependent upon the Participants role in the Company and determined based upon achievement against the following metrics, as set forth in Table 1 above: Revenue Performance, CV Pass Rate Performance and Individual Performance. In addition, Plan payments will be paid at a percentage determined by Corporate Financial Performance. These components are further described below.
A. | CORPORATE FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE: |
The Corporate Financial Performance funding mechanism is determined by the Companys financial performance in 2012. The Companys financial performance measurement for MIP purposes shall be the Companys 2012 Operating Income, plus depreciation and amortization, plus any employee stock compensation charges (including charges recorded under FAS 123R or other similar provisions related to stock compensation charges), and plus any non-recurring one-time items (initially contemplated as severance and related stock option acceleration, significant litigation settlements, site closure costs, and transaction costs related to M&A activity) (collectively, Adjusted EBIDTA). The Board of Directors and/or Compensation Committee shall review any such non-recurring one-time items and shall have the right to include or exclude such items in the determination of Adjusted EBITDA for MIP purposes at their sole discretion. In addition, the Board of Directors and/or Compensation Committee shall have the right to review the market lease adjustment to reduce such adjustment by any foreign exchange gains that may occur in 2012.
Plan payments will be determined in accordance with Table 2 below based on achievement by the Company of a targeted Adjusted EBITDA of $[***] in United States Dollars (the Corporate Financial Performance Metric).
