Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
On March 27, 2008, Genpact International, Inc., a Delaware corporation wholly owned by Genpact Limited (Genpact), and General Electric Company (together with its affiliates, GE) entered into an amendment to the master services agreement, dated as of December 30, 2004, as amended (the MSA), to extend the term of the MSA, including the minimum annual commitment, by one year. The MSA will now run through December 31, 2014. The MSA amendment provides that the minimum commitment for each year through 2011 is $360 million, and the annual commitment for each of the years 2012, 2013 and 2014 is $270 million, $180 million and $90 million, respectively.
Simultaneously, Genpact Limited, Genpact Investment Co. (Lux) Sicar S.A.R.L. (GICO) (the investment vehicle of General Atlantic LLC and Oak Hill Capital Partners), GE Capital (Mauritius) Holdings Ltd. (GECM) and GE Capital International (Mauritius) (GECIM), entered into an amendment to the shareholders agreement, dated as of August 7, 2007. GECM and GECIM are affiliates of GE and are referred to collectively as GE. The shareholders agreement amendment changes the date prior to which GE will not transfer Genpact common shares without the consent of GICO, if such transfer would result in GE owning less than 26,745,000 Genpact common shares, to March 20, 2009 from December 30, 2009. The shareholders agreement continues to provide that before such date, sales by GE are permitted pro rata with GICO if GICO engages in sales resulting in GICO owning an aggregate amount of less than 40,117,500 Genpact common shares.
The shareholders agreement amendment also provides that GE will no longer be entitled to appoint directors or send observers to Genpacts Board of Directors.
The foregoing summary is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the MSA amendment and the shareholders agreement amendment, which are filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1 and 10.2 and are incorporated herein by reference.
Item 5.02. Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
(b) In connection with the amendment to the shareholders agreement described above, Gary Reiner and Ferdinando Beccalli-Falco, two GE executives, have resigned from Genpacts Board of Directors effective March 27, 2008.
