Re: TeleTech Holdings, Inc.
Registration Statement on Form S-1
FILED PURSUANT TO RULE 462(b)
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We are counsel to TeleTech Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
""Company''), and, in such capacity, we have assisted in the preparation and
filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 462(b)
promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, of the Company's
Registration Statement on Form S-1 (the "Registration Statement") relating to
the proposed offering by certain stockholders of the Company (the "Selling
Stockholders") of 400,000 shares of the common stock, $.01 par value per
share (the "Common Stock"), of the Company (and, if the underwriters'
over-allotment option is exercised, by the Company of up to 60,000 shares of
Common Stock).
As such counsel, we have examined the Registration Statement, and such
other papers, documents and certificates of public officials and
certificates of the Selling Stockholders and of officers of the Company
as we have deemed necessary and appropriate as the basis for the opinions
hereinafter expressed. In such examinations, we have assumed the genuineness
of all signatures, the legal capacity of natural persons, the authenticity of
all documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity to original
documents of all documents submitted to us as conformed or photostatic
copies. As to any facts material to this opinion, we have relied upon
statements and representations of (a) the Company, its officers and its other
representatives, (b) the Selling Stockholders and, if applicable, their
officers and other representatives, and (c) public officials.
Based upon the foregoing, and subject to the limitations, qualifications,
exceptions, and assumptions set forth herein, we are of the opinion that the
shares of Common Stock covered by the Registration Statement to be sold by
the Selling Stockholders (and, if the underwriters' over-allotment option is
exercised, to be issued and sold by the Company), when delivered in
accordance with the terms described in the Registration Statement, will be
duly and validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable.
We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as an exhibit to the
Registration Statement and to the reference to our firm under the caption
"Legal Matters" in the prospectus contained therein.
Very truly yours,
/s/ Neal, Gerber & Eisenberg
