Director Resignation

On September 25, 2009, Stephen D.R. Moore notified the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Stream Global Services, Inc. (the “Company”) that he is resigning from the Board and from any committee of the Board effective upon the closing (the “Closing”) of the share exchange contemplated by the Share Exchange Agreement dated August 14, 2009, by and among the Company and the other parties thereto (as amended, the “Exchange Agreement”). Mr. Moore’s resignation was not the result of a disagreement with the Company on any matter relating to the Company’s operations, policies or practices.

Election of Directors

On September 25, 2009, pursuant to the terms of the Stockholders Agreement dated August 14, 2009, by and among the Company and the other parties thereto (as amended, the “Stockholders Agreement”), a copy of which was attached as Exhibit 4.1 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K that was filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on August 20, 2009, the Board elected Gerardo C. Ablaza, Jr., Alfredo I. Ayala, Julie G. Richardson and R. Davis Noell to the Board, effective immediately following the Closing. Descriptions of the biographies for each of Messrs. Ablaze, Ayala and Noell and Ms. Richardson are contained in the Company’s Definitive Information Statement on Form 14C, filed with the SEC on September 4, 2009, in the section entitled “THE SHARE EXCHANGE – Board of Directors and Management of the Combined Company.” The Board also elected Mr. Ayala and Ms. Richardson to serve on the Compensation Committee of the Board and elected Messrs. Ablaza and Noell to serve on the Nominating Committee of the Board, in each case, effective immediately following the Closing.

Item 8.01. Other Events.

On September 29, 2009, the Company and Stream Holdings Corporation, Stream International, Inc., Stream New York, Inc. and Stream International Europe BV, each a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into a definitive agreement to sell $200 million aggregate principal amount of 11.25% senior secured notes due 2014 (the “Notes”) in a private placement to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”). The issue price is 95.454% of the principal amount of the Notes. The Notes will be guaranteed by certain of the Company’s direct and indirect subsidiaries on a senior secured basis.

The closing of the sale of the Notes is expected to occur on or about October 1, 2009, subject to the closing of the Company’s previously announced combination with eTelecare Global Solutions, Inc. (“eTelecare”), the concurrent closing of a new asset-based revolving credit facility providing for borrowing of up to $100 million, subject to borrowing base limitations, and customary closing conditions.

The proceeds from the offering of the Notes, together with available cash, will be used to repay all amounts outstanding under the Company’s existing revolving credit facility and bank term loans, to repay all amounts outstanding under the existing bank loan of EGS. Corp., the parent of eTelecare, and loans by EGS Corp. to certain of its affiliates, and to pay the fees, expenses and other costs relating to the offering of the Notes, the Company’s entry into a new asset-based revolving credit facility and the share exchange contemplated by the Exchange Agreement.
