Teleperformance

Proposed equity incentive plan

Paris, May 7, 2009 – Teleperformance has announced that an equity incentive plan, involving as many as three million shares, will be proposed at the upcoming Annual General Meeting on May 29, 2009.

The proposed plan is compliant with the AFEP/MEDEF recommendations and makes conditional and gradual awards of incentive shares of stock to about 200 senior executives, managers and employees throughout the world.

The purpose of the plan is to motivate and encourage our senior executives, managers and employees, particularly in these troubled economic times, and thus to maintain the Group's growth while increasing shareholder value.

Furthermore, as a demonstration of his complete objectivity in supporting this plan, Jacques Berrebi, Chairman of our Board of Directors, has declined to participate, so that it can benefit an even greater number of Group managers and employees.

These shares would vest four years after being awarded and solely for the benefit of recipients who

are employed by the Group at the end of these four years and
have met specific performance criteria as to revenue growth, profitability and improved stock price over this four-year period.

Each manager or employee will be awarded 100% of the shares originally allocated if he or she attains the highest score for every criterion.

Otherwise, he or she will receive some lower number of shares depending on the performance level achieved, past specific trigger values for each criterion.

The Group's Board of Directors, Supervisory Board, major shareholders and founders have all decided to vote in favor of the resolution to implement this plan.
