 5. 

 (i) an amount equal to six (6) months of the Executive’s Base Salary in
effect at the time of termination (calculated prior to any reduction in Base Salary that would give rise to the Executive’s right to resign for Good Reason pursuant to Section 4.6.2(iii)), less standard deductions and withholdings, to be paid
to the Executive in a single lump sum within five (5) days of the effective date of the Release (as defined therein); and

 (iii) if the termination date is on or before the first anniversary of the Effective Date, vesting of the Executive’s Options
shall be accelerated such that, on the effective date of the Release, the Executive shall receive immediate accelerated vesting of the number of shares subject to each of the three Options that will bring the Executive’s total percentage of
vested shares under each of the three Options to 20%. For example, if the Executive’s employment were terminated three (3) months after the Effective Date, the Executive would be entitled to immediate accelerated vesting of 20% of the
shares subject to each of the three Options. If the Executive’s employment were terminated six (6) months and one day after the Effective Date, such that the Executive would already be vested in 12.5% of the shares subject to each of the
three Options under Section 3.1.2, the Executive would be entitled to immediate accelerated vesting of 7.5% of the shares subject to each of the three Options. 
 4.4.4 Without Cause or For Good Reason In Connection with a Change in Control. If the Companies terminate the
Executive’s employment without Cause, or if the Executive terminates his employment for Good Reason, at any time during the three (3) months immediately preceding, or the twelve (12) months immediately following, a Change in Control

withholdings. In addition, if the Executive furnishes to the Companies the Release within the time period set forth therein, but in no event later than forty-five days following Executive’s termination, and permits the Release to become
effective in accordance with its terms, the Executive shall be entitled to the following: 
 (i) an amount equal to
twelve (12) months of the Executive’s Base Salary in effect at the time of termination (calculated prior to any reduction in Base Salary that would give rise to the Executive’s right to resign for Good Reason pursuant to
Section 4.6.2(iii)), less standard deductions and withholdings, to be paid to the Executive in a single lump sum within five (5) days of the effective date of the Release; and 
 (ii) in the event the Executive timely elects continued coverage under COBRA, the Companies will pay the same portion of the
Executive’s COBRA health insurance premiums as the percentage of health insurance premiums it paid during the Executive’s employment for the twelve (12) month period commencing on the first day of the first full calendar month
following the effective date of the Release; and 
  

 6.

 4.6 Definitions. For purposes of this Agreement, the following terms shall have the following meanings: 
 4.6.1 Complete Disability. “Complete Disability” shall mean the inability of the Executive to
perform the Executive’s duties under this Agreement, whether with or without reasonable accommodation, because the Executive has become permanently disabled within the meaning of any policy of disability income insurance covering employees of
either of the Companies then in force. In the event the Companies have no policy of disability income insurance covering employees of the Companies in force when the Executive becomes disabled, the term “Complete Disability”
shall mean the inability of the Executive to perform the Executive’s duties under this Agreement, whether with or without reasonable accommodation, by reason of any incapacity, physical or mental, which the Companies’ Boards, based
upon medical advice or an opinion provided by a licensed physician acceptable to the Boards, determines to have incapacitated the Executive from satisfactorily performing all of the Executive’s usual services for the Companies, with or without
reasonable accommodation, for a period of at least one hundred twenty (120) days during any twelve (12) month period (whether or not consecutive). Based upon such medical advice or opinion, the determination of the Boards shall be final
and binding and the date such determination is made shall be the date of such Complete Disability for purposes of this Agreement. 
 4.6.2 Good Reason. “Good Reason” for the Executive to terminate the Executive’s employment hereunder shall mean the occurrence of any of the following events without the Executive’s consent:

 (i) a material reduction in Executive’s duties, authority, or responsibilities relative to the duties,
authority, or responsibilities in effect immediately prior to such reduction; 
 (ii) the relocation of the
Executive’s principal place of business to a point more than twenty-five (25) miles from San Diego, California; or 
 (iii) a material reduction by the Companies of the Executive’s Base Salary as initially set forth herein or as the same may be increased from time to time. 
 Provided however that, such termination by the Executive shall only be deemed for Good Reason pursuant to the foregoing definition if: (i) the Executive gives the Companies written notice of the
intent to terminate for Good Reason within thirty (30) days following the first occurrence of the condition(s) that the Executive believes constitutes Good Reason, which notice shall describe such condition(s); (ii) the Companies fail to
remedy such condition(s) within thirty (30) days following receipt of the written notice (the “Cure Period”); and (iii) the Executive terminates his employment within thirty (30) days following the end of the
Cure Period. 
  

 7. 

 4.6.3 Cause. “Cause” for the Companies to terminate
the Executive’s employment hereunder shall mean the occurrence of any of the following events: 
 (i) the
Executive’s conviction of any felony or crime involving moral turpitude; 
 (ii) the Executive’s engaging or
in any manner participating in any activity that violates any provisions of the Executive’s Proprietary Information and Inventions Agreement with the Companies; 
 (iii) the Executive’s engaging or in any manner participating in any material act of misconduct against the Companies, their
Affiliates, employees, agents or customers, including but not limited to fraud or the use or intentional appropriation for his personal use or benefit of any funds or properties of the Companies not authorized by the Board to be so used or
appropriated; 
 (iv) the Executive’s breach of this Agreement or of a policy or procedure of the Companies that
results in material injury the Companies; 
 (v) the Executive’s refusal to implement or follow a lawful policy
or directive of the Companies following a written request or order to do so; or 
 (vi) the Executive’s failure
to perform the Executive’s job duties diligently and/or professionally, if Executive fails to cure said failure within thirty (30) days of receiving written notice from the Companies. 
 4.6.4 Change in Control. For purposes of this Agreement, “Change in Control” means: (i) a sale
of all or substantially all of the assets of Insert, Calando, or the Merged Entity; (ii) a merger or consolidation in which Insert, Calando, or the Merged Entity is not the surviving entity and in which the holders of Insert’s,
Calando’s, or the Merged Entity’s outstanding voting stock immediately prior to such transaction own, immediately after such transaction, securities representing less than fifty percent (50%) of the voting power of the entity
surviving such transaction or, where the surviving entity is a wholly-owned subsidiary of another entity, the surviving entity’s parent; (iii) a reverse merger in which Insert, Calando, or the Merged Entity is the surviving entity but the
shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately preceding the merger are converted by virtue of the merger into other property, whether in the form of securities of the surviving entity’s parent, cash or otherwise, and in which the holders of
the Insert’s, Calando’s, or the Merged Entity’s outstanding voting stock immediately prior to such transaction own, immediately after such transaction, securities representing less than fifty percent (50%) of the voting power of
Insert, Calando, or the Merged Entity, or where Insert, Calando, or the Merged Entity is a wholly-owned subsidiary of another entity, Insert’s, Calando’s, or the Merged Entity’s parent; or (iv) an acquisition by any person,
entity or group within the meaning of Section 13(d) or 14(d) of the Exchange Act, or any comparable successor provisions (excluding any employee benefit plan, or related trust, sponsored or maintained by the Insert, Calando, or the Merged
Entity or subsidiary of Insert, Calando, or the Merged Entity or other entity controlled by Insert, Calando, or the Merged Entity) of the beneficial ownership (within the 

  

 8. 

 
meaning of Rule 13d-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act, or comparable successor rule) of securities of Insert, Calando, or the Merged Entity representing
at least seventy five percent (75%) of the combined voting power entitled to vote in the election of directors; provided, however, that nothing in this paragraph shall apply to a sale of assets, merger or other transaction effected
exclusively for the purpose of changing the domicile of Insert, Calando, or the Merged Entity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the anticipated merger of Insert and Calando into the Merged Entity shall not constitute a Change in Control for
purposes of this Agreement. 
 4.7 Parachute Payment. If any payment or benefit the Executive would receive
pursuant to this Agreement (“Payment”) would (i) constitute a “Parachute Payment” within the meaning of Section 280G of the Internal Revenue Code (the
“Code”), and (ii) but for this sentence, be subject to the excise tax imposed by Section 4999 of the Code (the “Excise Tax”), then such Payment shall be reduced to the Reduced Amount. The
“Reduced Amount” shall be either (x) the largest portion of the Payment that would result in no portion of the Payment being subject to the Excise Tax or (y) the largest portion of the Payment, which such amount,
after taking into account all applicable federal, state and local employment taxes, income taxes, and the Excise Tax (all computed at the highest applicable marginal rate), results in the Executive’s receipt, on an after-tax basis, of the
greater amount of the Payment notwithstanding that all or some portion of the Payment may be subject to the Excise Tax. If a reduction in payments or benefits constituting Parachute Payments is necessary so that the Payment equals the Reduced
Amount, reduction shall occur in the following order unless the Executive elects in writing a different order (provided, however, that such election shall be subject to the Companies’ approval if made on or after the effective date of
the event that triggers the Payment): reduction of cash payments; cancellation of accelerated vesting of stock awards; reduction of employee benefits. In the event that acceleration of vesting of stock award compensation is to be reduced, such
acceleration of vesting shall be cancelled in the reverse order of the date of grant of the Executive’s stock awards unless the Executive elects in writing a different order for cancellation. 
 An accounting firm then engaged by either of the Companies for general audit purposes shall perform the foregoing calculations. The Companies shall bear
all expenses with respect to the determinations by such accounting firm required to be made hereunder. 
 The accounting firm engaged to make
the determinations hereunder shall provide its calculations, together with detailed supporting documentation, to the Executive and the Companies within fifteen (15) calendar days after the date on which the Executive’s right to a Payment
is triggered (if requested at that time by the Executive or the Companies) or such other time as requested by the Executive or the Companies. If the accounting firm determines that no Excise Tax is payable with respect to a Payment, either before or
after the application of the Reduced Amount, it shall furnish the Executive and the Companies with an opinion reasonably acceptable to the Executive that no Excise Tax will be imposed with respect to such Payment. Any good faith determinations of
the accounting firm made hereunder shall be final, binding and conclusive upon the Executive and the Companies. 
 4.8
Application of Internal Revenue Code Section 409A. Severance benefits payable pursuant to this Agreement are to be payable pursuant to the “short-term deferral” rule set forth in Section 1.409A-1(b)(4) of the Treasury
Regulations.

assignable by the Executive. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Companies and their successors, assigns and legal representatives, including but not limited to the Merged Entity. Any such successor of the Companies
will be deemed substituted for the Companies under the terms of this Agreement for all purposes. For this purpose, “successor” means any person, firm, corporation or other business entity which at any time, whether by purchase, merger or

 4.Employment Agreement between the Company and Karen R. Bowman

 Exhibit 10.3 to 2007 10-Q 
 August 16, 2007 
 Ms. Karen R. Bowman 
  

	 	Re:	Employment Offer 

 Dear Karen: 
 This letter describes the terms and conditions of your continued employment with Convergys Corporation. The terms of this Employment Offer are effective
September 1, 2007 and will remain in effect from the date of execution through and including May 31, 2010, subject to early termination as described in paragraphs 7, 8 and 9 
  

	1.	You will serve with Convergys Corporation as General Counsel and Corporate Secretary, reporting to the Chief Executive Officer. This is a full-time position with duties assigned by
the CEO commensurate with the role. 

  

	2.	Your base salary will be a minimum of $27,083 per month, which equates to $325,000 on an annualized basis. 

  

	3.	You will participate in the Convergys annual incentive plan, Effective September 1, 2007, your annual incentive target will be $200,000 at 100% goal attainment (prorated for
2007) 

  

	4.	You will participate in the Convergys long term incentive plan. Your 2008 annual long term incentive award target will be valued at no less than $595,000 and the awards are subject
to the terms of the LTIP and the applicable award agreements. 

  

	5.	You will participate in the current benefit Plans commensurate with your G-Level position, subject to change or elimination in accordance with the terms of the Plans or, where there
is no Plan, by action of the CEO, the Compensation and Benefits Committee of the Board of Directors, or the Board of Directors. 

  

	6.	You will continue to participate in the Convergys Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan (“SERP”). 

  

	7.	 Your employment with Convergys may be terminated by you or Convergys, with or without cause. Upon termination of your employment, the terms of this Employment Offer
will automatically terminate. If Convergys terminates your employment without cause, other than as described in paragraph 8, Convergys will provide you with severance and benefits as follows: 12 months’ base salary plus target annual incentive;
12 months’ continuation of medical, dental, vision, and life insurance coverage at the same level and cost applicable to active employees; eligibility for post-retirement benefits to the extent that you would have been eligible for such
benefits if employment had continued for an additional 12 months; 12 months of additional service credit under each non-qualified pension plan in which you participate; ability for 12 months following the

termination date to retain and exercise stock options that had vested or will vest before that date (provided that no exercises will be permitted after the
expiration of the original ten year term of a stock option); restrictions on restricted stock that would have lapsed within 12 months of termination will lapse; an amount equal to any forfeitable benefits under a pension or 401 (k) plan that
would have vested prior to 12 months following the termination date, and; an amount equal to the present value of the additional vested benefits that would have accrued (at the salary and annual incentive targets existing at termination) under any
qualified pension plan had you remained employed for 12 months following the termination date. 

 Eligibility for such
severance and benefits will require your execution of a comprehensive Severance Agreement and Release of All Claims prepared by Convergys. All severance and benefits will be subject to applicable tax withholding and reporting. 
 Such severance and benefits will not be offered where termination is for “cause,” is initiated by you, or results from your death or other
situation rendering you unable to perform essential duties of your position. Convergys will have “cause” to terminate your employment if it determines that you have violated Convergys’ Code of Business Conduct, have acted recklessly
in the performance of your duties or been convicted of a felony. Upon written notice to you, and for the purposes of investigating the possible existence of “cause”, Convergys may suspend you from your duties for up to 60 days with full
pay and benefits. Such a suspension will not constitute a “meaningful diminution in your responsibilities or position” under paragraph 8. 
  

	8.	In the event of a Change-in-Control (as defined in Convergys’ long term incentive plan) that results, within two years of the date of such Change-in-Control, in your
termination or voluntary termination because of a (i) reduction in your compensation, (ii) meaningful diminution in your responsibilities or position with Convergys, or (iii) requirement that you relocate more than 50 miles from your
employment location immediately prior to the Change-in-Control, the terms of this Employment Offer will automatically terminate and you will be provided with severance and benefits as follows: the same severance and benefits listed above in
paragraph 7 except for a period of 24 months and, if the present value of all payments, benefits and accelerated vesting of benefits or awards that you receive pursuant to this letter or otherwise from Convergys constitutes a “parachute
payment” as defined in Section 280G(b)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code, and such parachute payment exceeds the limitation under Section 280G (i.e., 3 times the base amount, (as defined in Section 280G(b)(3)) by more than 15%, an
amount equal to the excise tax imposed under Section 4999 of the Code, including any interest or penalties with respect to such excise tax, which amount will be grossed-up to cover the taxes applicable to such payment, excluding any income
taxes and penalties imposed pursuant to Section 409A of the Code. Such amount will be paid at the same time the severance benefits payable in cash under this Employment Offer are paid but in no event later than the year next following the year
in which you remit such excise taxes to the taxing authority. 

 Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the present value of all
payments, benefits and accelerated vesting of benefits or awards that you receive pursuant to this Employment Offer or otherwise from Convergys constitutes a “parachute payment” as defined in 

  

 Convergys Corporation

Section 280G(b)(2) and such parachute payment does not exceed the limitation under Section 280G by more than 15%, the amount of the cash payment
you are otherwise entitled to receive under the terms of this Employment Offer will be reduced to an amount that does not exceed the 280G limitation (but not below zero). 
 Eligibility for such severance and benefits will require your execution of a comprehensive Severance Agreement and Release of All Claims prepared by the successor. All severance and benefits will be subject to
applicable tax withholding and reporting. 
  

	9.	You agree to give Convergys 60 days’ advance, written notice of your decision to resign and 6 months’ advance, written notice of your decision to retire (if eligible). You
and Convergys may mutually agree to a greater or shorter period. The terms of this Employment Offer will terminate automatically effective as of your date of resignation or retirement. 

  

	10.	You agree to execute, simultaneously with the execution of this letter, Convergys’ current Non-Disclosure and Non-Competition Agreement for Directors and Above, which, among
other things, restricts you from engaging in any activity in competition with Convergys for a two-year period following your termination for any reason. 

  

	11.	Except for issues pertaining to your Non-Disclosure and Non-Competition Agreement, any disputes between you and Convergys or its officers or agents regarding termination, change in
position, an intentional tort, or harassment, retaliation, or discrimination based on local, state, or federal law will be subject to confidential, final and binding arbitration in Cincinnati, Ohio in accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act
and/or applicable Ohio law and, to the extent not specified here, AAA rules. You and Convergys waive our rights to a judge or jury trial in court, although you are permitted to file a charge with, and/or assist, an administrative agency like the
Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. A claim must be made within six months of a party’s knowledge of the disputed matter or it is waived, and remedies are actual, compensatory, liquidated, and punitive damages, and attorney fees, but do
not include reinstatement or promotion (for which front pay may be awarded instead). Convergys will pay the arbitrator’s fees and expenses, but each party is responsible for their attorneys’ fees, costs of witnesses, and evidence. Each
side will limit discovery to two depositions, except that the arbitrator may permit additional discovery. Judgment upon the arbitration award may be entered in state or federal court. A termination or expiration of the terms of this Employment Offer
will not affect the rights and obligations of the parties under this paragraph 11, the terms of which will survive termination and/or expiration of this Employment Offer. 

 It is understood and agreed by the parties that prior to the expiration of the terms of this Employment Offer, the Compensation and Benefits Committee will establish and adopt a market-competitive policy providing for
severance payments and benefits to be paid to each Executive Committee member in the event of a Change-in-Control and/or a termination without cause. 
 Your
employment will be governed by Ohio law. If you are a “specified employee” (within the meaning of Section 409A) at the time of your termination and to the extent that any amounts payable or other benefits receivable by you pursuant to
this Employment Offer 

  

 Convergys Corporation

provide for a “deferral of compensation” within the meaning of Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Section
409A”), then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, such payment or benefits will be provided, to the extent necessary to comply with Section 409A, no earlier than the first business day following the six month
anniversary of your termination. In determining whether a termination of employment has occurred for purposes of applying the terms of this Employment Offer, the provisions of Section 409A and the regulations issued thereunder will control.

 Please indicate your acceptance of these terms by signing below and returning a copy to me by September 1, 2007. 
 By accepting these terms with the signatures below, you and Convergys are voluntarily agreeing that the provisions in your Employment Agreement originally dated
January 1, 1998 (including any subsequent updates or modifications to that Agreement) (“prior Employment Agreement”), that, prior to the effective date of this Employment Offer, remained in effect (i.e., those provisions identified in
Section 13.F. of your prior Employment Offer) are void as of the effective date of this Employment Offer. You agree to waive all rights, claims, or benefits under the prior Employment Agreement. You also agree the consideration provided to you
under this Employment Offer is adequate for your waiver of all rights under the prior Employment Agreement. Both you and Convergys have had sufficient time to review and consider this letter before signing below. 
 Sincerely,
