6.   PERFORMANCE STANDARDS:
  6.1   Cingular and StarTek have developed the standards set forth in this SOW, (hereinafter “Performance Standards”) to ensure the delivery of high quality, efficient customer service. Effective upon signature of this SOW by both parties (“Execution Date”), Performance Standard measurements for Sites existing on the Execution Date shall begin the month following the Execution Date, or for the Performance Standards related to First Call Resolution and Overall Customer Satisfaction, the next full or prorated per complete months remaining, as the case may be, calendar quarter. Performance Standards for Sites opening after the Execution Date shall be applicable to Services performed from a particular Site/Line Group ninety (90) days after Site opening, or as outlined in the Performance Measurements attached hereto as Exhibit C. Furthermore, anytime a particular Site/Line Group increases by more than [*] over a two (2) month period, Performance Standards shall not apply with respect to such Site/Line Group until ninety (90) days after the incremental Site/Line Group staff has been in Production handling customer calls. Before the application of any of the Performance Standards, the parties agree to meet and discuss in good faith changes to the Performance Standards set forth and the relevant Cingular invoice credits and StarTek earned debits or bonuses with respect to such Performance Standards based on performance prior to such Performance Standards taking effect. Performance Standards hereunder shall be measured by Line Group at each Site and shall exclude calls handled by the IVR and those calls subject to waivers as set forth herein this SOW. Any invoice credits owed or debits earned by StarTek shall only apply to the Services invoiced for the particular Site/Line Group subject to Section 1.2 herein for which it was measured and shall be assessed to Billable Hours only. Any invoice debits earned by StarTek will be used to offset Cingular invoice credits only except for Section 6.3.3 Occupancy which may earn a true debit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, StarTek may earn a Bonus subject to Sections 6.3.1 and 6.3.2. Cingular invoice credits, StarTek earned debits to Cingular invoice credits, and bonuses will be calculated monthly and shall be applied on a quarterly basis.
 
  6.2   Call Volume Forecasting / Staffing. Each month on a by Site/Line Group basis, Cingular shall provide StarTek three (3) written forecasts to be used by StarTek as a guide for recruitment, planning and staffing activities. The three (3) written forecasts are as follows:
  1.   [*] with the required number of Full Time Equivalents (“FTEs”) by Site/Line Group for recruitment purposes (“[*]-Day Commitment”)
 
  2.   [*] with the estimated daily number of calls by Site/Line Group for planning purposes
 
  3.   [*] with daily call arrival patterns by Site/Line Group
StarTek shall provide FTE staffing pursuant to the mutually agreed upon [*] based upon the [*], which will include an assumption of [*] of initial Program training and [*] of Nesting, by Site/Line Group. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that Cingular requests training to extend beyond [*] of initial Program training and [*] of Nesting and StarTek determines that the change will affect StarTek’s ability to staff accurately, the parties shall address the change subject to Exhibit 5 of the Agreement.
The mutually agreed upon [*] represents a commitment by Cingular and StarTek with respect to staffing levels. Once the [*] is agreed to, Cingular agrees to compensate StarTek for the Billable Hours incurred for the applicable months which shall be no less than [*] of the [*], and it is StarTek’ responsibility to staff to the [*] as mutually agreed upon. In cases where StarTek has duplicate Line Groups across Sites, StarTek reserves the right to increase or decrease volumes at a Site level as long as the [*] remains unchanged
Each [*] will be prepared on a Site/Line Group basis in [*] intervals and will include estimated call volumes, estimated average handle times, estimated shrinkage percentages and, when available, any other information which would be relevant for StarTek in providing the Services.
Both Cingular and StarTek will need to agree upon the volume forecasts and related staffing when the [*] from the previous [*], as it may require additional new hire training. The parties shall mutually agree upon adjusted staffing for the modified forecast volumes pursuant to Exhibit 5 of the Agreement.

A [*] bonus may apply on a per Site basis if stretch targets are achieved for both FCR and Overall Satisfaction collectively (“Bonus”). The stretch target for Overall Customer Satisfaction is [*] or better. The Bonus shall be calculated as follows: 1) The monthly invoice credit(s) /debit(s) shall be calculated (“Offset Result”), then (2) The Bonus shall be applied to the Offset Result.
 
  6.3.3   Occupancy Rate Target of [*]-[*]%: The Occupancy Rate will be measured monthly and shall be determined by subtracting total idle time from total logged in time and dividing the difference by total logged in time. The Occupancy Performance Standard will be waived in the event that the actual Occupancy Rate is less than Cingular’s 30-Day Rolling Forecast, which shall include the forecasted modification training for the month, by [*] or more, or if the actual Occupancy Rate is less than the 30-Day Commitment by [*] or more. Any individual days where the actual call volumes are less than the 30-Day Rolling Forecast by [*] or more and the Occupancy target is missed will be excluded from the monthly calculation of Occupancy. The Cingular invoice credits and StarTek earned debits will be applied in the following fashion based on Occupancy Rate scores:
     
below [*]%
  [*]% Cingular invoice credit
above [*]%
  [*]% StarTek earned debit
      Not to exceed [*]% Cingular invoice credit.
 
      Notwithstanding the foregoing, StarTek may only earn a debit for Occupancy if it is staffed to at least [*] of the mutually agreed upon 90 Day Commitment.
 
  6.3.4   Productivity: The measurement for productivity will be measured monthly and shall be calculated as follows: Billable Hours minus breaks divided by Billable Hours. Productivity will be waived if voluntary go home time associated with low volumes drives lower productivity.
