Overview

              TTEC is a leading global customer experience technology and services company focused on the design, implementation and delivery of transformative customer experience solutions for many of the world's most iconic and disruptive brands. We help our clients deliver frictionless customer experiences, significantly improve their Net Promoter Score ("NPS") and lower their total cost to serve by enabling and delivering personalized, consistent and seamless customer experience across many interactive channels and phases of the customer lifecycle.

              In today's world of direct-to-customer ("DTC") revolution where experiences are everything, enterprises must become increasingly customer-centric and digitally-enabled. Digital transformation has become a requirement to serve customers, and it is our mission to enable and accelerate our clients' path to digital transformation. We are focused on improving the experience of our clients' customers, by leveraging existing and emerging technologies—Artificial Intelligence ("AI"), Machine Learning ("ML"), Robotic Process Automation ("RPA"), cloud, analytics, omnichannel and real-time messaging.

How We Serve Our Clients

              We provide strategic value and differentiation through our two business segments: TTEC Digital and TTEC Engage.

    TTEC Digital designs, builds and delivers tech-enabled, insights-based and outcome-driven customer experience solutions through our professional services and suite of technology offerings. These solutions are critical to enabling and accelerating digital transformation for our clients.

    TTEC Engage provides the essential technologies, human resources, infrastructure and processes to operate customer care, acquisition, and fraud detection and prevention services.

              TTEC Digital and TTEC Engage come together under our unified offering, Humanify™ Customer Experience as a Service ("CXaas"), which drives measurable results for clients through the delivery of personalized, omnichannel experiences to their customers. Our Humanify™ cloud platform provides a broad fully integrated ecosystem of Customer Experience ("CX") offerings, including omnichannel, messaging, AI, ML, RPA, analytics, cybersecurity, customer relationship management ("CRM"), knowledge management and journey orchestration in the cloud. Our end-to-end approach differentiates us from many competitors by combining design, strategic consulting, data analytics, process optimization, system integration, operational excellence and technology solutions and services. This unified offering is value-oriented, outcome-based and delivered on a global scale.

              We offer services to well established clients and to early phase growth companies that we serve through maturity to scale. To add scale to our offerings in our fast growing hypergrowth sector (as defined below), on October 26, 2019, we acquired a 70% interest in First Call Resolution, LLC ("FCR"). FCR provides customer care, social networking and business process solutions for born digital companies. FCR has approximately 2,000 employees based in the United States serving approximately 80 clients. FCR is now a part of our TTEC Engage business segment.

Approximately 1,300 CX professionals serve TTEC Digital clients. Approximately 47,200 professionals support TTEC Engage clients from 80 customer engagement centers and work-at-home locations, providing onshore, nearshore and offshore services on six continents to accommodate client requirements.

              As of September 30, 2019, we served approximately 275 diverse clients globally, including iconic blue-chip brands, Fortune 1000 companies and disruptive growth companies. The table below presents our total revenue by business segment for the twelve months ended September 30, 2019, the twelve months ended September 30, 2018 and the corresponding year over year growth rate; it also presents our income before income taxes and adjusted EBITDA and related margin percentages for the twelve months ended September 30, 2019.

Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin percentage are non-GAAP metrics. Please see the reconciliations of adjusted EBITDA to income before income taxes and adjusted EBITDA margin percentage to income before taxes margin percentage under "Summary Financial Information" beginning on page S-12 of this prospectus supplement.

              For the twelve months ended September 30, 2019, we had a net revenue retention rate of 95% with respect to our Digital clients. We calculate net revenue retention rate as of a period end starting with the last twelve-month revenue ("LTMR") from the cohort of all customers as of twelve months prior to such period end ("Prior Period LTMR"). We then calculate the LTMR from these same customers as of the current period end ("Current Period LTMR"). Current Period LTMR includes any expansion and is net of contraction or attrition over the last 12 months but excludes LTMR from new customers in the current period. We then divide the total Current Period LTMR by the total Prior Period LTMR to arrive at the net revenue retention rate. For the twelve months ended September 30, 2019, we had a net revenue retention rate of 98% with respect to our Engage clients.

Strategic High Growth High Margin Offerings

              Across our business segments and verticals, we offer solutions that support our clients' most critical customer experience strategies. These solutions include customer acquisition, fraud detection and prevention, work from home ("@Home"), cloud based omnichannel and systems integration, and our offerings to hypergrowth1 and automotive sector clients. These solutions historically have been high growth and high margin for us, and we believe that they will continue to contribute to our growth and profitability in the future.

              As shown in the table below, collectively these solution and sector offerings comprised $631.8 million of revenue in the twelve months ending September 30, 2019 versus $453.2 million in the prior twelve-month period, a 39.4% year over year revenue growth rate and gross margin of 29.3% versus the company's overall revenue growth rate of 5.6% and gross margin of 24.4%.

The clients that we consider "hypergrowth" are companies with digital, disruptive and direct-to-consumer business models such as ride-sharing, home-sharing, auto-sharing, e-banking, e-travel, e-tail and e-health. Our hypergrowth solution allows us to serve these born digital clients from early start-up through maturity and scale.

Trusted Leader for CX Transformation

              Our clients view us as a leader for CX digital transformation. In the second quarter of 2019, our clients ranked the overall company and both of our individual business segments at an NPS of +61 (on a scale of –100 to +100) via a survey that measures our clients' loyalty and satisfaction with our services and their willingness to recommend our products and services to other potential clients. We believe that client confidence in our services is also demonstrated by the long-term relationships we have with many of our clients. More than fifty percent of our total revenue for the twelve months ended September 30, 2019 was generated from clients with whom we have had a client relationship for at least 10 years.

Bookings

              Our bookings reached approximately $575 million in annualized contract value for the twelve months ended September 30, 2019, and approximately $513 million in annualized contract value for the twelve months ended September 30, 2018 (or, excluding a large, shorter-term government contract, $485 million and $513 million, respectively). Our bookings were approximately $444 million in annualized contract value for the twelve months ended September 30, 2017 and approximately $418 million in annualized contract value for the twelve months ended September 30, 2016. Our bookings have benefited from the overall growth in the CX market; our new and updated solutions; the expanding business verticals we serve in more geographies; our investment in sales, marketing, and digital demand generation; our relationships with new channel partners and expanding relationships with current channel partners; and from our acquisitions.

              For the twelve months ended September 30, 2019, approximately 66% of our bookings by annualized contract value came from recurring revenue. As of the same period, three client business verticals (government, automotive and financial services) accounted for approximately 57% of our total

Our Market Opportunity

              We estimate that the total annual CX technology and services spend for 2020 will be approximately $115 billion, and the total annual outsourced customer care BPO spend for 2020 will be approximately $80 billion. In addition, AI, ML, RPA and analytics are becoming increasingly important. We proactively approach our clients with solutions to help them improve their technologies to meet the ever-changing needs of their customers. The expanding addressable market for CX represents a large opportunity for us and we believe we are well positioned to capitalize on the technology-driven industry trends.

Our Industry

Direct-to-Consumer Revolution

              The DTC revolution has created a new generation of disruptive brands that do not have traditional barriers to entry and thrive on emotional connection and authentic relationships. These brands rely on passionate influencers and personalized service to win the hearts and minds of a growing customer base, one that requires an on-demand, curated buying experience. We believe DTC can enhance our customers' experience as clients look to us to design, build and operate their digital customer experience.

Evolution of Customer Behavior and CX Imperative

              Yesterday's customer experience is being replaced by today's direct experience, where each brand delivers a personalized end-to-end journey. As customers become more connected and share their experiences across a variety of social channels, the quality of the experience has a greater impact on brand loyalty and business performance. We believe customers are increasingly shaping their attitudes, behaviors and willingness to recommend or stay with a brand based on the totality of their experience, including not only the superiority of the product or service, but also the quality of their ongoing service and support interactions. Given the strong correlation between high customer satisfaction and improved profitability, we believe companies are increasingly focused on selecting partners who can deliver integrated insights-driven strategy, service and technology solutions that increase the lifetime value of customer relationships, rather than merely reducing costs.

Enterprise is Consolidating Partners

              An increasing percentage of companies are consolidating their customer engagement requirements with a few select partners who can deliver measurable business outcomes by offering an integrated, technology-enabled solution. We believe companies will continue to consolidate with partners such as TTEC that have demonstrated expertise in increasing brand value by delivering holistic, integrated customer-centric solutions spanning the entire customer experience journey, instead of inefficiently linking together a series of multiple point solutions.

CX Technology is Migrating to the Cloud

              Cloud investment is expected to continue to grow significantly. We believe the adoption of cloud technology to deliver omnichannel and other customer experience technology is still in its infancy. Our clients are embracing cloud-based CX technology solutions in a manner similar to how they seek cost-effective architecture and rapid deployment across other parts of their operations.

Our Competitive Strengths

              We have established ourselves as an industry leader in CX by leveraging the following competitive strengths:

Humanify Technology Platform and Insights-Driven Technology Solutions

              Innovation has been a priority since our inception 37 years ago. Our years of dedication and investment in transforming our business have differentiated our solutions portfolio and increased the value we deliver to our clients across the CX continuum.

              Our Humanify™ Technology Platform delivers an ecosystem of integrated CX applications, including omnichannel contact center platforms, the largest CRMs and innovative technology solutions that we fully integrate into our clients' broader technology systems. The platform is based on secure, scalable public and private data centers, in both pure cloud and hybrid environments. This architecture enables us to centralize and standardize our global delivery capabilities, resulting in scalability and improved quality of delivery for our clients, as well as lowering our capital and information technology operating costs.

              The foundation of these platforms is our network of global data centers on five continents. Our data centers provide an integrated suite of voice and data routing, workforce management, quality monitoring, business analytics and storage capabilities, enabling seamless operations from any location around the globe. This hub and spoke model enables us to provide our services at a competitive cost while increasing scalability, reliability, regulatory compliance and asset utilization across the full suite of our service offerings. It also provides effective redundancy for a timely response to system interruptions and outages due to natural disasters and other conditions outside of our control.

              Importantly, this platform has become the foundation for new, innovative offerings including TTEC's cloud-based offerings (e.g. Humanify™ Operations/Insights Platform), Humanify™ @Home for remote omnichannel agents and our suite of human capital solutions.

              Further, our Humanify™ Technology Platforms leverage reference architectures for multiple solutions whether we are operating the platforms and the services, implementing customized platforms for clients, or providing advanced managed services and continuous and automated development environments. We also provide clients with highly secure/compliant solutions with respect to regional (e.g., the European Union General Data Protection Regulation) and/or specific industry standards (e.g., the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard or the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act).

Innovative Human Capital Strategies

              Our global, highly trained employee base is a crucial component in the success of our business. We have made significant investments in proprietary technologies and management tools, methodologies and training processes in the areas of talent acquisition, learning services, knowledge management, workforce collaboration and performance optimization. These capabilities are the culmination of more than three decades of experience in managing a large, global workforce combined with the latest technology, innovation and strategy in the field of human capital management. This capability has enabled us to deliver a scalable and flexible workforce that is highly engaged in achieving and exceeding our clients' business objectives.

Globally Deployed Best Operating Practices

              Globally deployed best operating practices help us deliver a consistent, scalable, high-quality experience to our clients' customers from any of our global 80 customer engagement centers and work-from-home associate base. Standardized processes include our approach to attracting, screening, hiring, training, scheduling, evaluating, coaching and maximizing associate performance to meet our clients' needs. We also provide real-time reporting and analytics on performance across the globe to help ensure consistency of delivery. This information provides valuable insight into what is driving customer inquiries, enabling us to proactively recommend process changes that optimize their customers' experience.

              New customer engagement centers are established and existing centers are expanded or scaled down to accommodate anticipated business demands or specific client needs. As of September 30, 2019, we had significant capacity in the United States, Brazil, Bulgaria, Canada, Greece, India, Mexico, the Philippines, Poland and the United Kingdom to support customer demand and deliver superior cost efficiencies. We continue to explore opportunities in North America, Central Europe, South America and Africa to diversify our delivery footprint enabling near-shore and off-shore locations that support our multi-lingual service offerings and provide attractive client economics.

Robust Technology Partner Ecosystem

              Our strategic alliances with important digital channel partners enable our clients to deliver high-impact, personalized customer experiences more efficiently. We go to market with our Humanify™ cloud offering with our key strategic partners like Cisco. We continue to expand our relationships with existing channel partners and form new partnerships (such as LivePerson™) to fuel AI-powered digital transformation.

Our Growth Strategy

              We aim to grow our business and maintain our position as an industry leader by focusing on our core customer experience, engagement and growth solutions. We link these capabilities to technology-enabled platforms and managed services to drive a superior customer experience for our clients' customers. This approach yields differentiated customer experiences. To that end we continually strive to:

    Expand Client Relationships.  We pursue and grow new clients, many of whom were born digital and need a proven CX partner to further their success. We also build deeper, more strategic relationships with existing global clients to drive enduring, transformational change within their organizations.

    Deliver new capabilities and digital solutions.  We continue to invest in technology-enabled platforms and innovate through technology advancements, broader intellectual property

      protection and process optimization. We expand our product portfolio to serve digital CX needs with new cloud and technology offerings.

    Build differentiated partner relationships.  We strive to create new channel partnerships and work within our technology partners' ecosystems to deliver innovative solutions with expanding intellectual property through value-added applications, integrations, services and solutions.

    Execute Strategic acquisitions.  We intend to continue executing strategic acquisitions that further complement and expand our integrated solutions and global presence. We remain focused on leveraging scale and tuck-in acquisitions to advance our client base, especially in the growth category.

Income Before Income Taxes to Adjusted EBITDA Reconciliation

              The following table sets forth our revenue and gross margins, and a reconciliation of the income before income taxes to the adjusted EBITDA for the consolidated company and each of our two segments—TTEC Engage and TTEC Digital. Each column represents the previous twelve months ended September 30 of each noted year, and all amounts are in millions (except for margin %). We believe adjusted EBITDA allows investors to measure, analyze and compare our financial condition and results of operations in a meaningful and consistent manner. We cannot provide a reconciliation between adjusted EBITDA and net income without unreasonable effort as we are unable to allocate taxes by segment. As a result, we have reconciled adjusted EBITDA to income before taxes.

    our financial condition, results of operations and prospects;

    additions or departures of key management personnel; and

    the realization of any of the other risk factors presented in this prospectus supplement and in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 or any of our subsequently filed Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q.

              In the past, securities class action litigation has often been instituted against companies following periods of volatility in the price of their common stock. This type of litigation could result in substantial costs and divert our management's attention and resources, which could have an adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations, cash flow and the trading price of our common stock.

Market interest rates may have an adverse effect on the value of our common stock

              One of the factors that will influence the trading price of our common stock will be the dividend yield on our common stock (as a percentage of the price of our common stock) relative to market interest rates. An increase in market interest rates, which are currently at low levels relative to historical rates, may lead prospective purchasers of shares of our common stock to expect a higher dividend yield and higher interest rates, which would likely increase our borrowing costs and potentially decrease funds available for distribution. Thus, higher market interest rates could cause the trading price of our common stock to decrease.

If securities or industry analysts do not publish research or publish inaccurate or unfavorable research about our business, our stock price and trading volume could decline

              The trading market for our common stock depends in part on the research and reports that securities or industry analysts publish about us or our business. Currently, only a small number of securities analysts cover our stock. If more analysts do not commence coverage of us, or if industry analysts cease coverage of us or fail to publish reports on us regularly, the trading price for our common stock could be adversely affected. If one or more of the analysts who cover us downgrade our common stock or publish inaccurate or unfavorable research about our business, our common stock price would likely decline.

The number of shares of our common stock available for future issuance or sale could adversely affect the per share trading price of our common stock

              We cannot predict whether future issuances or sales of shares of our common stock or the availability of shares of our common stock for resale in the open market will decrease the per share trading price of our common stock. The issuance of substantial numbers of shares of our common stock in the public market, or the perception that such issuances might occur, could adversely affect the per share trading price of our common stock. Future issuances of shares of our common stock may also be dilutive to existing stockholders.

Future offerings of debt securities, which would be senior to our common stock upon liquidation, and/or preferred equity securities which may be senior to our common stock for purposes of dividend distributions or upon liquidation, may adversely affect the per share trading price of our common stock

              In the future, we may attempt to increase our capital resources by making offerings of debt or equity securities. Upon liquidation, holders of any debt securities or shares of preferred stock that we issue in the future and lenders with respect to other borrowings would be entitled to receive our available assets prior to distribution to the holders of our common stock. Additionally, any convertible or exchangeable securities that we issue in the future may have rights, preferences and privileges more

favorable than those of our common stock and may result in dilution to owners of our common stock. Holders of our common stock are not entitled to preemptive rights or other protections against dilution. Any shares of preferred stock we issue in the future could have a preference on liquidating distributions or a preference on dividend payments that could limit our ability to pay dividends to the holders of our common stock. Because our decision to issue securities in any future offering will depend on market conditions and other factors beyond our control, we cannot predict or estimate the amount, timing or nature of any such future offering. Thus, our stockholders bear the risk of our future offerings reducing the per share trading price of our common stock and diluting their interest in us.

Upon completion of this offering, the selling stockholder will continue to own a majority of our shares of common stock, which limits the ability of other stockholders to influence corporate matters

              As of September 30, 2019, the selling stockholder owned approximately 67.7% of our outstanding shares of common stock, and the selling stockholder's interest will decrease to approximately 60.3% of our outstanding shares of common stock immediately after the completion of this offering. The selling stockholder is also our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. Accordingly, the selling stockholder has, and after this offering will continue to exercise, significant influence and control over the management and strategic direction of our company, including the direction of our business and our dividend policy, and all matters requiring action by our stockholders, including the election of our entire board of directors and our capital structure. In addition, the selling stockholder will retain significant influence and control over the outcome of any change in control of our company or significant corporate transaction or other matter submitted to our stockholders for approval.

Delaware law and certain provisions in our restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws might discourage, delay or prevent a change of control of our company or changes in our management and, therefore, depress the price of our common stock

              Our restated certificate of incorporation and amended and restated bylaws contain provisions that could depress the market price of our common stock by acting to discourage, delay or prevent a change in control of our company or changes in our management that the stockholders of our company may deem advantageous. These provisions, among other things:

    authorize the issuance of "blank check" preferred stock that our board of directors could use to implement a stockholder rights plan;

    provide that special meetings of our stockholders may be called only by our Chairman, President or our board of directors;

    establish advance notice requirements for nominations for election to our board of directors or for proposing matters that can be acted upon by stockholders at annual stockholder meetings;

    permit the board of directors to establish the number of directors; and

    provide that the board of directors is expressly authorized to make, alter or repeal our amended and restated bylaws.

              In addition, Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law may discourage, delay or prevent a change in control of our company. Section 203 imposes certain restrictions on mergers, business combinations and other transactions between us and holders of 15% or more of our common stock.

DIVIDENDS

              In 2015, our board of directors adopted a dividend policy, with the intent to distribute a periodic cash dividend to stockholders of our common stock, after consideration of, among other things, TTEC's performance, cash flows, capital needs and liquidity factors. We paid the initial dividend in 2015 and have continued to pay a semi-annual dividend in April and October each year, in amounts progressively ranging between $0.18 and $0.32 per common share. The most recent dividend in the amount of $0.32 per common share was paid in October 2019. While it is our intention to continue to pay semi-annual dividends in 2020 and beyond, any decision to pay future cash dividends will be made by our board of directors. In addition, our credit facility restricts our ability to pay dividends in the event we are in default or do not satisfy certain covenants.

              Our common stock is listed and traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Market under the symbol "TTEC." The following table sets forth the high and low closing prices per share of common stock for the quarters indicated as reported on NASDAQ. The table also sets forth the cash dividends per share declared by TTEC with respect to its common stock. On September 30, 2019, there were 46,485,595 shares of TTEC common stock outstanding, which were held by stockholders of record.

MATERIAL U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES TO NON-U.S. HOLDERS OF COMMON STOCK

              The following is a summary of the material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the ownership and disposition of our common stock acquired in this offering by a Non-U.S. Holder (as defined below). For purposes of this discussion, a Non-U.S. Holder is a beneficial owner of our common stock that is not a "U.S. person" or partnership, including any entity or arrangement treated as a partnership and the equity holders therein, for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

              A U.S. person is any of the following:

    an individual citizen or resident of the United States;

    a corporation (or other entity treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) created or organized under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia;

    an estate, the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income tax regardless of its source; or

    a trust (i) whose administration is subject to the primary supervision of a U.S. court and which has one or more U.S. persons who have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust, or (ii) that has a valid election in effect under applicable Treasury Regulations to be treated as a U.S. person.

              If you are an entity or arrangement that is treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the U.S. federal income tax treatment of a partner will generally depend on the status of the partner and your activities. Partnerships holding our common stock and the partners in such partnerships are urged to consult their tax advisors as to particular U.S. federal income tax consequences to them of holding and disposing of our common stock.

              This discussion is based on the Code, administrative pronouncements, judicial decisions and final, temporary and proposed Treasury Regulations, changes to any of which subsequent to the date of this prospectus supplement may affect the tax consequences described herein, possibly with retroactive effect. We have not sought and will not seek any rulings from the Internal Revenue Service, or IRS, regarding the matters discussed below. There can be no assurance the IRS or a court will not take a contrary position to that discussed below regarding the tax consequences of the ownership and disposition of our common stock.

              This discussion is limited to Non-U.S. Holders who hold our common stock as a "capital asset" within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code (generally, property held for investment). This discussion does consider any specific facts or circumstances that may be relevant to holders subject to special rules under the U.S. federal income tax laws, including, without limitation, certain former citizens or long-term residents of the United States, a person who holds or receives our common stock pursuant to the exercise of an employee stock option or otherwise as compensation, partnerships (or arrangements classified as partnerships for U.S. federal income tax purposes) or other pass-through entities and the equity holders therein, "controlled foreign corporations," "passive foreign investment companies," corporations that accumulate earnings to avoid U.S. federal income tax, banks, financial institutions, investment funds, insurance companies, brokers, dealers or traders in securities, tax-exempt organizations, tax-qualified retirement plans or foreign pension funds, persons subject to the alternative minimum tax, persons subject to special tax accounting rules under Section 451(b) of the Code, persons that own, or have owned, actually or constructively, more than 5% of our common stock and persons holding our common stock as part of a hedging or conversion transaction or straddle, or a constructive sale, or other risk reduction strategy.

S-23


Table of Contents

              This discussion does not describe all of the U.S. federal income tax consequences that may be relevant to you in light of your particular circumstances, and does not address the potential application of the alternative minimum tax, Medicare contribution tax, estate or gift taxes and does not address any aspect of state, local or non-U.S. taxation, or any taxes other than income taxes. You should consult your tax adviser with regard to the application of the U.S. federal tax laws to your particular situation, as well as any tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, local or non-U.S. taxing jurisdiction.

              PROSPECTIVE INVESTORS SHOULD CONSULT THEIR TAX ADVISORS REGARDING THE PARTICULAR U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES TO THEM OF ACQUIRING, OWNING AND DISPOSING OF OUR COMMON STOCK, AS WELL AS ANY TAX CONSEQUENCES ARISING UNDER ANY STATE, LOCAL OR NON-U.S. TAX LAWS AND ANY OTHER U.S. FEDERAL TAX LAWS.

Distributions

              Distributions of cash or other property paid on our common stock will constitute dividends for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the extent paid from our current or accumulated earnings and profits, as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles. To the extent those distributions exceed our current and accumulated earnings and profits, they will constitute a return of capital, which will first reduce your basis in our common stock, but not below zero, and any excess will be treated as gain from the sale or other disposition of our common stock, as described below under "—Gain on Disposition of Our Common Stock."

              Dividends paid to you generally will be subject to withholding tax at a 30% rate or a reduced rate specified by an applicable income tax treaty. In order to obtain a reduced rate of withholding, subject to the discussion below under "—FATCA," you will be required to provide to us or our paying agent a properly executed IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or applicable successor form) certifying your entitlement to benefits under a treaty. This certification must be provided to us or our paying agent prior to the payment of dividends and must be updated periodically. If you hold our common stock through a financial institution or other agent acting on your behalf, you will be required to provide appropriate documentation to the agent, which then will be required to provide certification to us or our paying agent, either directly or through other intermediaries.

              If you do not timely provide the required certification, but qualify for a reduced treaty rate, you may obtain a refund of any excess amounts withheld by timely filing an appropriate claim for refund with the IRS.

              If dividends paid to you are effectively connected with your conduct of a trade or business in the United States (and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, are attributable to a permanent establishment or fixed base maintained by you in the United States), you will generally be taxed on the dividends on a net income basis in the same manner as a U.S. person. If you are a foreign corporation you also may be subject to an additional branch profits tax equal to 30% (or such lower rate specified by an applicable income tax treaty) of your effectively connected earnings and profits for the taxable year, as adjusted for certain items.

              If dividends paid to you are effectively connected with your conduct of a trade or business in the United States (and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, are attributable to a permanent establishment or fixed base maintained by you in the United States), you will be exempt from the withholding tax discussed in the preceding paragraph, although you will be required to provide a properly executed IRS Form W-8ECI in order to claim an exemption from withholding. You should consult your tax advisors regarding any applicable income tax treaties that may provide for different rules.

Gain on Disposition of Our Common Stock

              Subject to the discussions below under "—Information Reporting and Backup Withholding" and "—FATCA," you generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income or withholding tax on gain realized on a sale or other taxable disposition of our common stock unless:

    the gain is effectively connected with your conduct of a trade or business in the United States (and, if required by an applicable income tax treaty, is attributable to a permanent establishment or fixed base maintained by you in the United States);

    you are a nonresident alien individual present in the United States for 183 days or more during the taxable year of the disposition, and certain other requirements are met; or

    we are or have been a "United States real property holding corporation," as defined in the Code, or a USRPHC, at any time within the five-year period ending on the date of the taxable disposition or your holding period for such common stock, whichever period is shorter, and our common stock is not regularly traded on an established securities market or you hold more than 5% of our outstanding common stock, directly or indirectly, during the shorter of the five-year period ending on the date of the taxable disposition or the holding period for such common stock.

              You will generally be taxed on the gain described in the first bullet above in the same manner as a U.S. person. If you are a foreign corporation, you also may be subject to an additional branch profits tax equal to 30% (or such lower rate specified by an applicable income tax treaty) of your effectively connected earnings and profits for the taxable year, as adjusted for certain items.

              You will generally be subject to U.S. federal income tax at a flat 30% rate (or such lower rate specified by an applicable income tax treaty) on gain described in the second bullet point above, but may offset such tax with certain U.S.-source capital losses (even though you are not considered a resident of the United States), provided that you have timely filed U.S. federal income tax returns with respect to such losses.

              Generally, a corporation is a USRPHC only if the fair market value of its U.S. real property interests equals or exceeds 50% of the sum of the fair market value of its worldwide real property interests plus any of its assets used or held for use in a trade or business. Although there can be no assurance, we do not believe that we are, or have been, a UPRHC, or that we are likely to become one in the future. Even if we are a USRPHC, for so long as our common stock is regularly traded on an established securities market, sales of our common stock generally will not be subject to tax if you have not held more than 5% of our common stock, actually or constructively, during the five-year period preceding such sale or other disposition of our common stock (or your holding period, if shorter). No assurance can be provided that our common stock will continue to be regularly traded on an established securities market for purposes of the rules described above. You are encouraged to consult your own tax advisors regarding the possible consequences to you if we are, or were to become, a USRPHC.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding

              Information returns are required to be filed with the IRS in connection with payments of dividends on our common stock. Unless you comply with certification procedures to establish that you are not a U.S. person, information returns may also be filed with the IRS in connection with the proceeds from a sale or other disposition of our common stock. You may be subject to backup withholding on payments on our common stock or on the proceeds from a sale or other disposition of our common stock unless the applicable withholding agent does not have actual knowledge or reason to know that you are a U.S. person and you comply with certification procedures to establish that you are not a U.S. person or otherwise establish an exemption. Your provision of a properly executed

S-25


Table of Contents

applicable IRS Form W-8 certifying your non-U.S. status will permit you to avoid backup withholding, provided the applicable withholding agent does not have actual knowledge or reason to know that you are a U.S. person. Amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules are not additional taxes and may be refunded or credited against your U.S. federal income tax liability, provided the required information is timely furnished to the IRS.

FATCA

              Provisions of the Code commonly referred to as the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act, or FATCA, require withholding of 30% on payments of dividends on our common stock, and, subject to the discussion of certain proposed Treasury Regulations below, gross proceeds of dispositions of our common stock, to "foreign financial institutions" (which is broadly defined for this purpose and in general includes investment vehicles) and certain other non-U.S. entities unless various U.S. information reporting and due diligence requirements (generally relating to ownership by U.S. persons of interests in or accounts with those entities) have been satisfied, or an exemption applies. An intergovernmental agreement between the United States and an applicable foreign country may modify these requirements. Under certain circumstances, you may be eligible for refunds or credits of such taxes. The U.S. Treasury recently released proposed Treasury Regulations which, if finalized in their present form, would eliminate the federal withholding tax of 30% applicable to the gross proceeds of a sale or other disposition of our common stock. In its preamble to such proposed Treasury Regulations, the U.S. Treasury stated that taxpayers may generally rely on the proposed regulations until final regulations are issued. You should consult your tax adviser regarding the effects of FATCA on your investment in our common stock.

Option to Purchase Additional Shares

              The selling stockholder has granted an option to the underwriters, exercisable for 30 days after the date of this prospectus, to purchase up to 450,000 additional shares at the public offering price, less the underwriting discount. If the underwriters exercise this option, each will be obligated, subject to conditions contained in the underwriting agreement, to purchase a number of additional shares proportionate to that underwriter's initial amount reflected in the above table.

No Sales of Similar Securities

              We and the selling stockholder, our executive officers and directors have agreed not to sell or transfer any common stock or securities convertible into, exchangeable for, exercisable for, or repayable with common stock, for 90 days after the date of this prospectus without first obtaining the written consent of BofA Securities, Inc. and Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC.

              Specifically, we and these other persons have agreed, with certain limited exceptions, not to directly or indirectly:

    offer, pledge, sell or contract to sell any common stock;

    grant any option, right or warrant for the sale of any common stock;

    request or demand that we file a registration statement related to the common stock; or

    enter into any swap or other agreement that transfers, in whole or in part, the economic consequence of ownership of any common stock whether any such swap or transaction is to be settled by delivery of shares or other securities, in cash or otherwise.

              This lock-up provision applies to common stock and to securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for or repayable with common stock. It also applies to common stock owned now or acquired later by the person executing the agreement or for which the person executing the agreement later acquires the power of disposition.

NASDAQ Global Select Market Listing

              The shares are listed on the NASDAQ Global Select Market under the symbol "TTEC."

Price Stabilization, Short Positions

              Until the distribution of the shares is completed, SEC rules may limit underwriters and selling group members from bidding for and purchasing our common stock. However, the representatives may engage in transactions that stabilize the price of the common stock, such as bids or purchases to peg, fix or maintain that price.

              In connection with the offering, the underwriters may purchase and sell our common stock in the open market. These transactions may include short sales, purchases on the open market to cover positions created by short sales and stabilizing transactions. Short sales involve the sale by the

S-28


Table of Contents

underwriters of a greater number of shares than they are required to purchase in the offering. "Covered" short sales are sales made in an amount not greater than the underwriters' option to purchase additional shares described above. The underwriters may close out any covered short position by either exercising their option to purchase additional shares or purchasing shares in the open market. In determining the source of shares to close out the covered short position, the underwriters will consider, among other things, the price of shares available for purchase in the open market as compared to the price at which they may purchase shares through the option granted to them. "Naked" short sales are sales in excess of such option. The underwriters must close out any naked short position by purchasing shares in the open market. A naked short position is more likely to be created if the underwriters are concerned that there may be downward pressure on the price of our common stock in the open market after pricing that could adversely affect investors who purchase in the offering. Stabilizing transactions consist of various bids for or purchases of shares of common stock made by the underwriters in the open market prior to the completion of the offering.

              Similar to other purchase transactions, the underwriters' purchases to cover the syndicate short sales may have the effect of raising or maintaining the market price of our common stock or preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of our common stock. As a result, the price of our common stock may be higher than the price that might otherwise exist in the open market. The underwriters may conduct these transactions on the NASDAQ Global Select Market, in the over-the-counter market or otherwise.

              Neither we nor any of the underwriters make any representation or prediction as to the direction or magnitude of any effect that the transactions described above may have on the price of our common stock. In addition, neither we nor any of the underwriters make any representation that the representatives will engage in these transactions or that these transactions, once commenced, will not be discontinued without notice.

Passive Market Making

              In connection with this offering, the underwriters may engage in passive market making transactions in the common stock on the Nasdaq Global Select Market in accordance with Rule 103 of Regulation M under the Exchange Act during a period before the commencement of offers or sales of common stock and extending through the completion of distribution. A passive market maker must display its bid at a price not in excess of the highest independent bid of that security. However, if all independent bids are lowered below the passive market maker's bid, that bid must then be lowered when specified purchase limits are exceeded. Passive market making may cause the price of our common stock to be higher than the price that otherwise would exist in the open market in the absence of those transactions. The underwriter is not required to engage in passive market making and may end passive market making activities at any time.

Electronic Distribution

              In connection with the offering, certain of the underwriters or securities dealers may distribute prospectuses by electronic means, such as e-mail.

Other Relationships

              Some of the underwriters and their affiliates have engaged in, and may in the future engage in, commercial and investment banking, financial advisory and other commercial dealings in the ordinary course of business with us or our affiliates. They have received, or may in the future receive, customary fees and commissions for these transactions. One or more affiliates of BofA Securities, Inc. and HSBC Securities (USA) Inc. are lenders under our credit facility.

Such investments and securities activities may involve securities and/or instruments of ours or our affiliates. The underwriters and their affiliates may also make investment recommendations and/or publish or express independent research views in respect of such securities or financial instruments and may hold, or recommend to clients that they acquire, long and/or short positions in such securities and instruments.

              Each person in a Member State who initially acquires any shares or to whom any offer is made will be deemed to have represented, acknowledged and agreed to with us and the representatives that it is a qualified investor within the meaning of the Prospectus Regulation.

              In the case of any shares being offered to a financial intermediary as that term is used in Article 5(1) of the Prospectus Regulation, each such financial intermediary will be deemed to have represented, acknowledged and agreed that the shares acquired by it in the offer have not been acquired on a non-discretionary basis on behalf of, nor have they been acquired with a view to their offer or resale to, persons in circumstances which may give rise to an offer to the public other than their offer or resale in a relevant Member State to qualified investors, in circumstances in which the prior consent of the representatives has been obtained to each such proposed offer or resale.

              The company, the representatives and their affiliates will rely upon the truth and accuracy of the foregoing representations, acknowledgements and agreements.

              For the purposes of this provision, the expression an "offer to the public" in relation to any shares in any Member State means the communication in any form and by any means of sufficient information on the terms of the offer and any shares to be offered so as to enable an investor to decide to purchase or subscribe for any shares, and the expression "Prospectus Regulation" means Regulation (EU) 2017/1129.

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

        The following description of certain terms of our capital stock does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to, our restated certificate of incorporation, as amended (the "Certificate of Incorporation"), our amended and restated bylaws, as amended (the "Bylaws"), and the applicable provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "DGCL"). For more information on how you can obtain the Certificate of Incorporation and the Bylaws, see "Where You Can Find More Information."

General

        Under the Certificate of Incorporation, we are authorized to issue up to 150,000,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, and 10,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.01 per share. As of June 30, 2019, there were 46,386,727 shares of common stock outstanding and no shares of preferred stock outstanding.

Common Stock

        The holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote per share on all matters to be voted upon by the stockholders. Stockholders may not cumulate their votes in the election of directors. Subject to preferences that may be applicable to any outstanding preferred stock, the holders of common stock are entitled to receive ratably such dividends, if any, as may be declared from time to time by the Board of Directors out of funds legally available therefor. In 2015, our Board of Directors adopted a dividend policy, with the intent to distribute a periodic cash dividend to stockholders of our common stock, after consideration of, among other things, TTEC's performance, cash flows from operations, capital needs and liquidity factors. The Company paid the initial dividend in 2015 and has continued to pay a semi-annual dividend in October and April of each year.

        In the event of liquidation, dissolution or winding up of TTEC, the holders of common stock are entitled to share ratably in all assets remaining after payment of liabilities, subject to prior distribution rights of preferred stock, if any, then outstanding. The common stock has no preemptive or conversion rights or other subscription rights. There are no redemption or sinking fund provisions applicable to the common stock. All outstanding shares of common stock are fully paid and non-assessable.

Preferred Stock

        Our Board of Directors has the authority to issue our preferred stock in one or more series and to fix the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions thereof, including dividend rights, dividend rates, conversion rights, voting rights, terms of redemption, redemption prices, liquidation preferences and the number of shares constituting any series or the designation of such series, without further vote or action by the stockholders. The issuance of preferred stock may have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in control of TTEC without further action by the stockholders and may adversely affect the voting and other rights of the holders of common stock. Holders of preferred stock may be entitled to receive dividends (other than dividends of common stock) before any dividends are payable to holders of common stock.

        The prospectus supplement relating to any preferred stock being offered will include specific terms relating to the offering.

Anti-Takeover Effects of Delaware Law

    upon consummation of the transaction which resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, the stockholder owned at least 85% of the voting stock of the corporation outstanding at the time the transaction commenced, excluding for the purpose of determining the number of shares outstanding those shares owned by the corporation's officers and directors and by employee stock plans in which employee participants do not have the right to determine confidentially whether shares held subject to the plan will be tendered in a tender or exchange offer; or

    on or subsequent to such date the business combination is approved by the Board of Directors and authorized at an annual or special meeting of stockholders by the affirmative vote of at least 662/3% of the outstanding voting stock which is not owned by the interested stockholder.

        A "business combination" is defined to include mergers, asset sales and other transactions resulting in financial benefit to a stockholder. In general, an "interested stockholder" is a person who, together with affiliates and associates, owns (or within three years, did own) 15% or more of a corporation's voting stock. The statute could prohibit or delay mergers or other takeover or change in control attempts with respect to TTEC and, accordingly, may discourage attempts to acquire TTEC even though such a transaction may offer TTEC's stockholders the opportunity to sell their stock at a price above the prevailing market price.

        Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws.    Various provisions contained in the Certificate of Incorporation and the Bylaws could delay or discourage stockholder actions with respect to transactions involving an actual or potential change of control of us or a chance in our management and may limit the ability of our stockholders to remove current management or approve transactions that our stockholders may deem to be in their best interests. Among other things, these provisions:

    provide that special meetings of stockholders may be called only by the Board of Directors, the Chairman of the Board of Directors or by the Chief Executive Officer of our company and not by the stockholders;

    provide that any stockholder wishing to nominate persons for election as directors at, or bring other business before, an annual meeting must deliver to our secretary advance written notice of the stockholder's intention to do so;

    establish that state courts located within the State of Delaware (or, if no state court located within the State of Delaware has jurisdiction, the federal district court for the District of Delaware) are the sole and exclusive forum for certain disputes;

    provide that the Board of Directors may, by resolution adopted by a majority of the directors, increase or decrease the number of directors on the Board so long as the number of directors is not less than two nor more than eleven;

    do not permit cumulative voting for directors; and

    provide that vacancies in our Board of Directors may be filled only by the affirmative vote of a majority of the remaining directors.

        The applicable prospectus supplement and/or other offering materials will describe the material terms of the debt securities offered through that prospectus supplement as well as any general terms described in this section that will not apply to those debt securities. To the extent the applicable prospectus supplement or other offering materials relating to an offering of debt securities are inconsistent with this prospectus, the terms of that prospectus supplement or other offering materials will supersede the information in this prospectus.

General

        We may sell the debt securities, including original issue discount securities, at par or at a substantial discount below their stated principal amount. Unless we inform you otherwise in a prospectus supplement, we may issue additional debt securities of a particular series without the consent of the holders of the debt securities of such series outstanding at the time of issuance. Any such additional debt securities, together with all other outstanding debt securities of that series, will constitute a single series of securities under the applicable indenture. In addition, we will describe in the applicable prospectus supplement material U.S. federal income tax considerations and any other special considerations for any debt securities we sell which are denominated in a currency or currency unit other than U.S. dollars. Unless we inform you otherwise in the applicable prospectus supplement, the debt securities will not be listed on any securities exchange.

        We expect most debt securities to be issued in fully registered form without coupons and in denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples thereof. Subject to the limitations provided in the indenture and in the prospectus supplement, debt securities that are issued in registered form may be transferred or exchanged at the corporate office of the trustee or the principal corporate trust office of the trustee, without the payment of any service charge, other than any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

        If specified in the applicable prospectus supplement, certain of our subsidiaries will guarantee the debt securities. The particular terms of any guarantee will be described in the related prospectus supplement.

Governing Law

        The indentures and the debt securities will be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of New York.

DESCRIPTION OF PURCHASE CONTRACTS

        We may issue purchase contracts for the purchase or sale of:

    debt or equity securities issued by us or securities of third parties, a basket of such securities, an index or indices of such securities or any combination of the above as specified in the applicable prospectus supplement;

    currencies; or

    commodities.

        Each purchase contract will entitle the holder thereof to purchase or sell, and obligate us to sell or purchase, on specified dates, such securities, currencies or commodities at a specified purchase price, which may be based on a formula, all as set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement. We may, however, satisfy our obligations, if any, with respect to any purchase contract by delivering the cash value of such purchase contract or the cash value of the property otherwise deliverable or, in the case of purchase contracts on underlying currencies, by delivering the underlying currencies, as set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement. The applicable prospectus supplement will also specify the methods by which the holders may purchase or sell such securities, currencies or commodities and any acceleration, cancellation or termination provisions or other provisions relating to the settlement of a purchase contract.

        The purchase contracts may require us to make periodic payments to the holders thereof or vice versa, which payments may be deferred to the extent set forth in the applicable prospectus supplement, and those payments may be unsecured or prefunded on some basis. The purchase contracts may require the holders thereof to secure their obligations in a specified manner to be described in the applicable prospectus supplement. Alternatively, purchase contracts may require holders to satisfy their obligations thereunder when the purchase contracts are issued. Our obligation to settle such pre-paid purchase contracts on the relevant settlement date may constitute indebtedness. Accordingly, pre-paid purchase contracts will be issued under an indenture.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

        TTEC and/or the selling stockholder, if applicable, may sell the securities in one or more of the following ways (or in any combination) from time to time:

    through underwriters or dealers;

    directly to a limited number of purchasers or to a single purchaser;

    through agents;

    through a combination of any such methods; or

    through any other methods described in a prospectus supplement.

        The prospectus supplement will state the terms of the offering of the securities, including:

    the name or names of any underwriters, dealers or agents;

    the purchase price of such securities and the proceeds to be received by TTEC, if any;

    any underwriting discounts or agency fees and other items constituting underwriters' or agents' compensation;

    any initial public offering price;

    any discounts or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers; and

    any securities exchanges on which the securities may be listed.

        Any initial public offering price and any discounts or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers may be changed from time to time.

        If we and/or the selling stockholder, if applicable, use underwriters in the sale, the securities will be acquired by the underwriters for their own account and may be resold from time to time in one or more transactions, including:

    negotiated transactions;

    at a fixed public offering price or prices, which may be changed;

    at market prices prevailing at the time of sale;

    at prices related to prevailing market prices; or

    at negotiated prices.

        Unless otherwise stated in a prospectus supplement, the obligations of the underwriters to purchase any securities will be conditioned on customary closing conditions and the underwriters will be obligated to purchase all of such series of securities, if any are purchased.

        We and/or the selling stockholder, if applicable, may sell the securities through agents from time to time. The prospectus supplement will name any agent involved in the offer or sale of the securities and any commissions we pay to them. Generally, any agent will be acting on a best efforts basis for the period of its appointment.

        We and/or the selling stockholder, if applicable, may authorize underwriters, dealers or agents to solicit offers by certain purchasers to purchase the securities from TTEC at the public offering price set forth in the prospectus supplement pursuant to delayed delivery contracts providing for payment and delivery on a specified date in the future. The contracts will be subject only to those conditions set forth in the prospectus supplement, and the prospectus supplement will set forth any commissions we pay for solicitation of these contracts.

Table of Contents

        Underwriters and agents may be entitled under agreements entered into with TTEC and/or the selling stockholder, if applicable, to indemnification by TTEC and/or the selling stockholder, if applicable, against certain civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), or to contribution with respect to payments which the underwriters or agents may be required to make. Underwriters and agents may be customers of, engage in transactions with, or perform services for TTEC and its affiliates in the ordinary course of business.

        Each series of securities will be a new issue of securities and will have no established trading market other than the common stock, which is listed on the NASDAQ Global Select Market. Any underwriters to whom securities are sold for public offering and sale may make a market in the securities, but such underwriters will not be obligated to do so and may discontinue any market making at any time without notice. The securities, other than the common stock, may or may not be listed on a national securities exchange.
