On January 17, 2007, StarTek, Inc. (“StarTek”) entered into a Separation Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Steven D. Butler pursuant to his previously announced termination of employment. His employment with StarTek ended effective January 17, 2007 (the “Termination Date”). Under the terms of the Agreement, Mr. Butler was paid a lump sum payment of salary (less applicable withholding) and vacation pay as if he had been employed through April 4, 2007, and will be entitled to receive $472,500 in severance pay, payable in equal monthly installments commencing on StarTek’s first regular payday that is no less than six months after the Termination Date and continuing according to the Company’s regular payroll schedule through April 8, 2008. Mr. Butler will also be reimbursed for certain insurance premiums that he will pay in April 2007 for coverage through April 2008.

The Agreement also stipulates that options granted to Mr. Butler during his tenure with StarTek will vest in accordance with the terms and provisions of each option agreement that existed on the Termination Date as if Mr. Butler’s employment with StarTek had terminated on April 4, 2007, and all of such vesting options will be exercisable through December 31, 2007.
