Initial Announcement of Definitive Transaction Agreement with Aegis

To be Sent to the SRT Everyone Distribution List Immediately After Press Release Clears Wire

STARTEK Brand Warriors:

During STARTEK’s 30-year history, we’ve achieved many important milestones on our journey to achieving sustainable, predictable, profitable growth. Today, we are taking another critical step toward achieving this goal as I am pleased to announce we have entered into a definitive transaction agreement with Aegis, an affiliate of Capital Square Partners (CSP) and leading global business service provider of customer experience management. Together with Aegis, we will establish a global enterprise with over 50,000 employees and operations in 12 countries across five continents.

The complementary nature of this arrangement is truly unprecedented. We have limited overlapping engagement centers and clients, a combination which will provide our combined company with global economies of scale to enhance margins and profitability. Additionally, both companies and our clients will benefit by:

• Delivering meaningful scale with combined revenues of approximately $700 million;

• Offering a new global reach, which now includes some of the world’s most rapidly growing markets, multi-lingual offerings, and the institution of operational best practices across the globe;

• Significantly leveraging automation, artificial intelligence, and other technology-led innovations to develop exponential value; and

• Providing significant client diversification, as our top three combined clients will now represent less than 30% of total revenue, compared to 53% for STARTEK in 2017.

Most importantly, we believe this is an excellent opportunity for each of you who will benefit from new opportunities for professional growth and advancement as we harness the combined power of our two organizations.

I will discuss this transaction in greater detail on our Earnings call this morning at 9:00 AM ET. Additionally, we will host a special Good Morning STARTEK call following the Earnings call to exclusively discuss the merger and provide time to answer your questions regarding this agreement. Please make every effort to attend this call. Following Good Morning STARTEK, members of the senior leadership team will also set up time to meet with their leaders and share more specific details regarding our communication plan. We will also share more information in the coming days and weeks as we work through details of the transaction process with Aegis.

Once again, we believe this is a very exciting time in STARTEK’s history and represents a new stage of growth and opportunity for our employees, our clients, their customers, and our shareholders. The opportunity we now have with a diverse customer base, global scale, and access to other growth markets best positions STARTEK to achieve this goal and provide meaningful value creation for all stakeholders.

Onward and upward!

Chad
