Transferred Shares Remain Subject to Underwriters' Lock-Up
NEW YORK--(Business Wire)--Genpact Limited (NYSE:G), which manages business processes for
companies around the world, announced today that GE has agreed to
sell, in a private transaction, approximately $100 million of Genpact
common shares to an affiliate of a limited partner in one of Genpact's
other shareholders. The shares sold will be subject to the same
lock-up agreement that GE entered into with the underwriters of
Genpact's initial public offering and, consequently, no shares will
enter the public trading market as a result of the transaction.

   "Genpact is a good partner and continues to provide valuable
support to our operations. This transaction is simply a part of our
normal and on-going portfolio management activities and we look
forward to a long and productive relationship," a GE spokesman noted.

   Pramod Bhasin, President and Chief Executive Officer of Genpact,
said: "We welcome this diversification of our ownership base. We
continue to have an excellent relationship with GE both as a client
and as a shareholder. Our continuing significant revenue growth from
GE is a reflection on the quality of this relationship."
