Explanation of Responses:

(1) On the Transaction Date, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors of APAC Customer Services, Inc. approved the options pursuant to the Company's Second Amended 1995 Incentive Stock Plan. Subject to acceleration in the event of termination of the Reporting Person's employment under specified circumstances or a change in control of the issuer, the options vest in four equal increments beginning on the first anniversary of the date of original grant as defined in the Plan ("Grant Date"), and thereafter on each subsequent anniversary date, and expire one day prior to the 10-year anniversary of the Grant Date unless earlier terminated pursuant to the terms of the Plan as a result of a termination of employment. The Reporting Person may surrender shares to the Issuer in order to pay the exercise price of an option or to satisfy the tax withholding consequences of an option exercise.
