TechTeam Global, Inc. intends to send the following e-mail to certain of its employees reminding them to take action to ensure that their shares are voted at its Special Meeting of Stockholders. The text of such e-mail is as follows:
Dear TechTeam employee and stockholder:
You have received or will soon receive the proxy material for our special meeting of stockholders called to approve the sale of TechTeam Government Solutions, Inc. to Jacobs Engineering Group (the “Sale”). The meeting is to be held on Tuesday, August 31, 2010, at 10:00 a.m. (local time), at The Langham Hotel, 250 Franklin Street, Boston, Massachusetts 02110.
For the reasons set forth in the proxy statement, dated July 30, 2010, the Board of Directors unanimously recommends that stockholders vote “FOR” all of the items on the agenda.
As approval of the Sale requires the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the shares of TechTeam’s outstanding common stock entitled to vote, your vote is extremely important, no matter how many shares you hold.
If you are a stockholder through TechTeam’s Retirement Savings Plan, you have the right to direct the trustee of that plan how to vote the shares allocated to your account. If you do not give the trustee any instructions, your shares will not be voted.
Please take a moment out of your busy day to vote. The two easiest ways to vote are:
  1.   Vote by Internet: Go to the website www.proxyvote.com. Use the Internet to transmit your voting instructions and for electronic delivery of information up to 11:59 P.M. Eastern Time the day before the meeting date. Have your voting instruction card in hand when you access the web site and follow the instructions to obtain your records and to create an electronic voting instruction form.
