ARTICLE II

THE CREDIT FACILITIES

2.01

The Revolving Credit Facility Commitment.

(a) Revolving Credit Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions and relying upon the representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement, the Notes and the other Loan Documents, the Bank agrees to make loans (a “Revolving Credit Loan” or the “Revolving Credit Loans”) to the Borrowers at any time or from time to time on or after the Closing Date and to and including the Business Day immediately preceding the Expiration Date in an aggregate principal amount which, when combined with the aggregate Letters of Credit Outstanding, shall not exceed at any one time outstanding Twenty-Five Million and 00/100 Dollars ($25,000,000.00) (the “Revolving Credit Facility Commitment”). Within the limits of time and

amounts set forth in this Section 2.01, and subject to the other provisions of this Agreement including, without limitation, the Bank’s right to demand repayment of the Revolving Credit Loans upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Borrowers may borrow, repay and reborrow under this Section 2.01; provided, however, that if the Borrowers prepay any Libor Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the applicable Interest Period for such Libor Rate Loan, then the Borrowers shall comply with the terms and conditions of Section 2.11(c) with respect to such prepayment.

(b) Revolving Credit Note. The obligations of the Borrowers to repay the unpaid principal amount of the Revolving Credit Loans made to the Borrowers by the Bank and to pay interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof will be evidenced in part by the Revolving Credit Note of the Borrowers, dated the Closing Date, in substantially the form of Exhibit “A” attached hereto and made a part hereof, with the blanks appropriately filled. The executed Revolving Credit Note shall be delivered by the Borrowers to the Bank on the Closing Date.

(c) Making, Renewing or Converting of Revolving Credit Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and provided that the Borrowers have satisfied all applicable conditions specified in Article IV hereof, the Bank shall make the proceeds of the Revolving Credit Loans available to the Borrowers which, as selected by the Borrowers pursuant to this Section 2.01(c), shall be Base Rate Loans or Libor Rate Loans. In addition, subject to the terms and conditions set forth below, the Borrowers shall have the opportunity (x) to convert Base Rate Loans into Libor Rate Loans, (y) to convert Libor Rate Loans into Base Rate Loans or (z) to renew Libor Rate Loans as Libor Rate Loans for additional Interest Periods.

(i) Each Revolving Credit Loan that is made as or converted (from a Libor Rate Loan) into a Base Rate Loan shall be made or converted on such Business Day and in such amount as an Authorized Representative shall request by written notice received by the Bank no later than 10:00 a.m. (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania time) on the Business Day prior to the date of requested disbursement of or conversion into the requested Base Rate Loan. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Bank shall make the proceeds of the Base Rate Loan available to the Borrowers at the Bank’s Office in immediately available funds not later than 2:00 p.m. (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania time) on the date of requested disbursement. Unless an Authorized Representative shall provide the Bank with the required written notice to convert a Base Rate Loan into a Libor Rate Loan on the third (3rd) Business Day prior to the date of requested conversion, such Base Rate Loan shall automatically renew as a Base Rate Loan.

(ii) Each Revolving Credit Loan that is made as, renewed as or converted (from a Base Rate Loan) into a Libor Rate Loan shall be made, renewed or converted on such Business Day, in such amount (greater than or equal to Two Million Five Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($2,500,000.00) provided, however, that any amount in excess of Two Million Five Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($2,500,000.00) may only be in increments of Five Hundred Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($500,000.00), and with such an Interest Period as an Authorized Representative shall request by written notice received by the Bank no later than 10:00 a.m. (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania time) on the third (3rd) Business Day prior to the requested date of disbursement of, renewal of or conversion into the requested Libor Rate Loan. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Bank shall make the

proceeds of the Libor Rate Loan available to the Borrowers at the Bank’s Office in immediately available funds, no later than 2:00 p.m. (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania time) on such borrowing date. In addition, in the event that the Borrowers desire to renew a Libor Rate Loan for an additional Interest Period, an Authorized Representative shall provide the Bank with written notice thereof on the third (3rd) Business Day prior to the expiration of the applicable Interest Period. In the event that an Authorized Representative fails to provide the Bank with the required written notice on the third (3rd) Business Day prior to the expiration of the applicable Interest Period for a Libor Rate Loan, unless repaid, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have given written notice that such Libor Rate Loan shall be converted into a Base Rate Loan on the last day of the applicable Interest Period. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, there shall not be more than eight (8) Revolving Credit Loans outstanding at any time. Each written notice of any Libor Rate Loan shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrowers and the Borrowers shall indemnify the Bank against any loss or expense incurred by the Bank as a result of any failure by the Borrowers to consummate such transaction calculated as set forth in Section 2.11(c) hereof.

(d) Maximum Principal Balance of Revolving Credit Loans and Letters of Credit Outstanding. The sum of the aggregate principal amount of all Revolving Credit Loans outstanding and the Letters of Credit Outstanding shall not exceed the Revolving Credit Facility Commitment. The Borrowers agree that if at any time the sum of the aggregate principal amount of all Revolving Credit Loans outstanding and the Letters of Credit Outstanding exceeds the Revolving Credit Facility Commitment (the “Excess Amount”), the Borrowers shall promptly pay to the Bank such Excess Amount. If not sooner paid, the entire principal balance of all outstanding Revolving Credit Loans, together with all unpaid accrued interest thereon, and all other sums and costs owed to the Bank by the Borrowers with respect to the Revolving Credit Loans shall be immediately due and payable on the Expiration Date, without notice, presentment or demand of any kind.

2.02

Interest Rates.

(a) Interest on Revolving Credit Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, at all times during the term of this Agreement, the aggregate outstanding principal balance of all Revolving Credit Loans shall be, at the option of the Borrowers, as elected pursuant to Section 2.01(c), (i) Libor Rate Loans which shall bear interest during each applicable Interest Period at the Libor Rate Applicable Rate, or (ii) Base Rate Loans which shall bear interest for each day at the Base Rate Applicable Rate.

(b) Interest Payments. The Borrower shall pay to the Bank interest on the aggregate outstanding balance of the Revolving Credit Loans that are Base Rate Loans, in arrears, on October 1, 2003 and on the first (1^st) day of each successive calendar month thereafter through and including the Expiration Date. The Borrower shall pay to the Bank interest on the unpaid principal balance of the Revolving Credit Loans that are Libor Rate Loans on the earlier of (i) the last day of the applicable Interest Period for such Loan or (ii) for such Loans with an applicable Interest Period exceeding three (3) Months, on the three (3) Month anniversary of each Loan during the period from the Closing Date through and including the Expiration Date. After maturity of any part of the Loans (whether upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, by acceleration or otherwise), interest on such part of the Loans shall be immediately due and

payable without notice, presentment or demand. If not sooner paid, the entire principal balance of all outstanding Loans, all unpaid accrued interest thereon and all other sums and costs owed to the Bank by the Borrower pursuant to the Loans shall be immediately due and payable on the Expiration Date, without notice, presentment or demand of any kind.

(c) Adjustment to Base Rate; Calculation of Interest and Fees. In the event of any change in the Base Rate, the rate of interest applicable to each Base Rate Loan shall be adjusted to immediately correspond with such change; except any interest rate charged hereunder shall not exceed the Maximum Rate. Interest on Loans, unpaid fees and other sums payable hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of three hundred sixty (360) days and paid for the actual number of days elapsed.

(d) Interest After Maturity or Default; Interest Laws. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, (i) the unpaid principal amount of the Loans or any portion thereof, accrued interest thereon, any fees or any other sums payable hereunder shall thereafter until paid in full bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Rate plus two percent (2.00%); (ii) each Libor Rate Loan shall automatically convert into a Base Rate Loan at the end of the applicable Interest Period; and (iii) no Loans may be made as, renewed as or converted into a Libor Rate Loan. Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the Borrowers shall not be required to pay, and the Bank shall not be permitted to collect, any amount of interest in excess of the maximum amount of interest permitted by applicable Law (“Excess Interest”). If any Excess Interest is provided for or determined by a court of competent jurisdiction to have been provided for in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, then, in such event: (1) the provisions of this subsection shall govern and control; (2) the Borrowers shall not be obligated to pay any Excess Interest; (3) any Excess Interest that the Bank may have received hereunder shall be, at the Bank’s option, (a) applied as a credit against the outstanding principal balance of the Debt or accrued and unpaid interest (not to exceed the maximum amount permitted by Law), (b) refunded to the payor thereof, or (c) any combination of the foregoing; (4) the interest rate(s) provided for herein shall be automatically reduced to the maximum lawful rate allowed from time to time under applicable Law (the “Maximum Rate”), and this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be deemed to have been and shall be, reformed and modified to reflect such reduction; and (5) the Borrowers shall have no action against the Bank for any damages arising out of the payment or collection of any Excess Interest. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if for any period of time interest on any Debt is calculated at the Maximum Rate rather than the Applicable Rate, and thereafter such Applicable Rate becomes less than the Maximum Rate, the rate of interest payable on such Debt shall remain at the Maximum Rate until the Bank shall have received the amount of interest which the Bank would have received during such period on such Debt had the rate of interest not been limited to the Maximum Rate during such period.

2.03

Fees.

The Borrowers shall pay to the Bank:

(a) A non-refundable commitment fee, on or before the Closing Date, in the amount of Thirty Thousand and 00/100 Dollars ($30,000.00) (the “Commitment Fee”); and

(b) The Letter of Credit Commission pursuant to Section 2.06 hereof.

2.04

Payments.

All payments to be made in respect of principal, interest, fees or other amounts due from the Borrowers under this Agreement or under the Notes are payable by 12:00 noon (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania time), on the day when due, without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind, all of which are expressly waived, and an action for the payments will accrue immediately. All such payments must be made to the Bank at its Office in U.S. Dollars and in funds immediately available at such Office, without setoff, counterclaim or other deduction of any nature. The Bank may in its discretion deduct such payments from the Borrowers’ demand or deposit accounts with the Bank on the due date. All such payments shall be applied at the option of the Bank to accrued and unpaid interest, outstanding principal and other sums due under this Agreement in such order as the Bank, in its sole discretion, shall elect. All such payments shall be made absolutely net of, without deduction or offset, and altogether free and clear of any and all present and future taxes, levies, deductions, charges and withholdings and all liabilities with respect thereto, excluding income and franchise taxes imposed on the Bank under the Laws of the United States or any state or political subdivision thereof. If the Borrowers are compelled by Law to deduct any such taxes or levies (other than such excluded taxes) or to make any such other deductions, charges, or withholdings (collectively, the “Required Deductions”), the Borrowers will pay to the Bank an additional amount equal to the sum of (i) the aggregate amount of all Required Deductions and (ii) the aggregate amount of United States, federal or state income taxes required to be paid by the Bank in respect of the Required Deductions.

2.05

Agreement to Issue Letters of Credit.

From time to time during the period from the Closing Date to the thirtieth (30^th) day preceding the Expiration Date, subject to the further terms and conditions hereof, including those required in connection with the making of Revolving Credit Loans, the Bank shall issue letters of credit (collectively, the “Letters of Credit”) for the account of the Borrowers in an amount not to exceed Five Million and 00/100 Dollars ($5,000,000.00) in the aggregate, as a subfacility of the Revolving Credit Facility Commitment; provided, however, that on any date that the Borrowers request a Letter of Credit, and after giving effect to the Letter of Credit Face Amount of such Letter of Credit, the sum of the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans and Letters of Credit Outstanding shall not exceed the Revolving Credit Facility Commitment.

Each request for a Letter of Credit shall be delivered to the Bank no later than 10:00 a.m. (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania time) on the third (3rd) Business Day, or such shorter period as may be agreed to by the Bank, prior to the proposed date of issuance. Each such request shall be in a form acceptable to the Bank and shall specify the Letter of Credit Face Amount thereof, the account party, the beneficiary, the intended date of issuance, the expiry date thereof, and the nature of the transaction to be supported thereby. All such Letters of Credit shall be issued by the Bank in accordance with its then current practice relating to the issuance of Letters of Credit including, but not limited to, the execution and delivery to the Bank of applications and agreements required by the Bank and the payment by the Borrowers of all applicable fees required by Section 2.06 hereof.

2.06

Letter of Credit Fees.

The Borrowers shall pay to the Bank (i) the Bank’s customary issuance fee with respect to each Letter of Credit issued hereunder, such fee to be paid on the date of issuance of each Letter of Credit, (ii) the Bank’s standard amendment fees for each amendment of any Letter of Credit issued hereunder, such fee to be paid on the date of the amendment of such Letter of Credit, and (iii) any out-of-pocket expenses and costs incurred by the Bank for the issuance of any Letter of Credit issued hereunder, such costs and expenses to be paid on demand. The Borrowers shall also pay to the Bank a fee (the “Letter of Credit Commission”), based on a daily calculation equal to the amount of the Letters of Credit Outstanding on each day multiplied by one and one quarter percent (1.25%) per annum, such fee to be paid quarterly in arrears beginning on October 1, 2003 and continuing on the first (1^st) day of each January, April, July and October thereafter and on the Expiration Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Letter of Credit Commission, as calculated above, shall be increased by two percent (2.0%) per annum.

2.07

Payments and Nature of Borrowers’ Obligations Under Letters of Credit.

(a) Upon a draw under any Letter of Credit, the Borrowers shall immediately reimburse the Bank for such drawing under a Letter of Credit. If (i) the Borrowers shall not have immediately reimbursed the Bank for such drawing under such Letter of Credit, (ii) the Bank must for any reason return or disgorge such reimbursement or (iii) the Borrowers are required to make a payment under Section 7.02(a)(ii) hereof and fail to make such payment, then the amount of each unreimbursed drawing under such Letter of Credit and payment required to be made under Section 7.02(a)(ii) hereof shall automatically be converted into a Revolving Credit Loan which shall be a Base Rate Loan made on the date of such drawing for all purposes of this Agreement.

(b) The Borrowers’ obligations to the Bank under any Letter of Credit or Letter of Credit Related Documents are absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid and performed in accordance with the terms hereof and thereof irrespective of any act, omission, event or condition, including, without limitation (i) the form of, any lack of power or authority of any signer of, or the lack of validity, sufficiency, accuracy, enforceability or genuineness of (or any defect in or forgery of any signature or endorsement on) any draft, demand, document, certificate or instrument presented in connection with any Letter of Credit, or any fraud or alleged fraud in connection with any Letter of Credit or any obligation underlying any Letter of Credit, in each case, even if the Bank or any of its correspondents have been notified thereof; (ii) any claim of breach of warranty that might be made by a Borrower or the Bank against any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit, or the existence of any claim, set off, recoupment, counterclaim, cross-claim, defense, or other right that a Borrower may at any time have against any beneficiary, any successor beneficiary, any transferee or assignee of the proceeds of a Letter of Credit, the Bank or any correspondent or agent of the Bank, or any other person, however arising; (iii) any acts or omissions by, or the solvency of, any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit, or any other person having a role in any transaction or obligation relating to a Letter of Credit; (iv) any failure by the Bank to issue any Letter of Credit in the form requested by a Borrower, unless the Bank receives written notice from such Borrower of such failure within three (3) Business Days after the Bank shall have furnished such Borrower (by facsimile

transmission or otherwise) a copy of such Letter of Credit and such error is material; and (v) any action or omission (including failure or compulsion to honor a presentation under any Letter of Credit) by the Bank or any of its correspondents in connection with a Letter of Credit, draft or other demand for payment, document, or any property relating to a Letter of Credit, and resulting from any censorship, Law, regulation, order, control, restriction, or the like, rightfully or wrongly exercised by any Official Body, or from any other cause beyond the reasonable control of the Bank or any of its correspondents, or for any loss or damage to such Borrower or to anyone else, or to any property of such Borrower or anyone else, resulting from any such action or omission.

(c) The Bank is authorized to honor any presentation under a Letter of Credit without regard to, and without any duty on the Bank’s part to inquire into, any transaction or obligation underlying such Letter of Credit, or any disputes or controversies between a Borrower and any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit, or any other person, notwithstanding that the Bank may have assisted a Borrower in the preparation of the wording of any Letter of Credit or any Letter of Credit Documents related thereto required to be presented thereunder or that the Bank may be aware of any underlying transaction or obligation or be familiar with any of the parties thereto.

(d) Each Borrower agrees that any action or omission by the Bank or any of its correspondents in connection with any Letter of Credit or presentation thereunder shall be binding on such Borrower and shall not result in any liability of the Bank or any of its correspondents to such Borrower in the absence of the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Bank. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Bank and each of its correspondents (i) may rely on any oral or other communication believed in good faith by the Bank or such correspondent to have been authorized or given by or on behalf of a Borrower; (ii) may honor any presentation if the documents presented appear on their face substantially to comply with the terms and conditions of the relevant Letter of Credit; (iii) may honor a previously dishonored presentation under a Letter of Credit, whether such dishonor was pursuant to a court order, to settle or compromise any claim of wrongful dishonor, or otherwise, and shall be entitled to reimbursement to the same extent as if such presentation had initially been honored, together with any interest paid by the Bank; (iv) may honor any drawing that is payable upon presentation of a statement advising negotiation or payment, upon receipt of such statement (even if such statement indicates that a draft or other document is being separately delivered), and shall not be liable for any failure of any such draft or other document to arrive, or to conform in any way with the relevant Letter of Credit; and (v) may pay any paying or negotiating bank claiming that it rightfully honored under the Laws or practices of the place where such bank is located. In no event shall the Bank be liable to any Borrower for any indirect, consequential, incidental, punitive, exemplary or special damages or expenses (including without limitation attorneys’ fees), or for any damages resulting from any change in the value of any property relating to a Letter of Credit.

(e) If a Borrower or any other person seeks to delay or enjoin the honor by the Bank of a presentation under a Letter of Credit, the Bank shall have no obligation to delay or refuse to honor the presentation until validly so ordered by a court of competent jurisdiction.

2.08

Period of Issuance and Term of Letters of Credit.

The term of any Letter of Credit issued by the Bank for the account of the Borrowers hereunder shall expire not less than thirty (30) days prior to the Expiration Date.

2.09

Booking of Libor Rate Loans.

The Bank may make, carry or transfer Libor Rate Loans at, to or for the account of, any of its branch offices or the office of an affiliate of the Bank; provided, however, that no such action shall result in increased liability or cost to the Borrowers, including any liability or cost pursuant to Section 2.11 or 2.12 hereof.

2.10

Assumptions Concerning Funding of Libor Rate Loans.

Calculation of all amounts payable to the Bank under Section 2.11(c) shall be made as though the Bank had actually funded its relevant Libor Rate Loan through the purchase of a Libor deposit bearing interest at the Libor Rate in an amount equal to the amount of that Libor Rate Loan and having maturity comparable to the relevant Interest Period and through the transfer of such Libor deposit from an offshore office to a domestic office in the United States of America; provided, however, that the Bank may fund each of its Libor Rate Loans in any manner it sees fit and the foregoing assumption shall be utilized only for the calculation of amounts payable under Section 2.11(c).

2.11

Additional Costs.

(a) If, due to either (i) the introduction of, or any change in, or in the interpretation of, any Law or (ii) the compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or other Official Body (whether or not having the force of Law), there shall be any increase in the cost to, or reduction in income receivable by, the Bank of making, funding or maintaining Loans (or commitments to make the Loans), then the Borrowers shall from time to time, upon demand by the Bank, pay to the Bank additional amounts sufficient to reimburse the Bank for any such additional costs or reduction in income. A certificate of the Bank submitted to the Borrowers in good faith as to the amount of such additional costs shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. Within five (5) Business Days after the Bank notifies the Borrowers of any such additional costs pursuant to this Section 2.11(a), the Borrowers may either (A) prepay in full all Loans of any types so affected then outstanding, together with interest accrued thereon to the date of such prepayment or (B) convert all Loans of any type so affected then outstanding into Loans of any other type not so affected upon not less than four (4) Business Days’ notice to the Bank. If any such prepayment or conversion of any Libor Rate Loan occurs on any day other than the last day of the applicable Interest Period for such Loan, the Borrowers also shall pay to the Bank such additional amounts as set forth in Section 2.11(c).

(b) If either (i) the introduction of, or any change in, or in the interpretation of, any Law or (ii) the compliance with any guideline or request from any central bank or other Official Body (whether or not having the force of Law), affects or would affect the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by the Bank or any corporation controlling the Bank and the Bank determines that the amount of such capital is increased by or based upon the existence of the Loans (or commitment to make the Loans) and other extensions of credit (or

commitments to extend credit) of similar type, then, upon demand by the Bank, the Borrowers shall pay to the Bank from time to time as specified by the Bank, additional amounts sufficient to compensate the Bank in the light of such circumstances, to the extent that the Bank reasonably determines such increase in capital to be allocable to the existence of the Bank’s Loans (or commitment to make the Loans). A certificate of the Bank in good faith submitted to the Borrowers as to such amounts shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. Within five (5) Business Days after the Bank notifies the Borrowers of any such additional costs pursuant to this Section 2.11(b), the Borrowers may either (A) prepay in full all Loans of any types so affected then outstanding, together with interest accrued thereon to the date of such prepayment or (B) convert all Loans of any type so affected then outstanding into Loans of any other type not so affected upon not less than four (4) Business Days’ notice to the Bank. If any such prepayment or conversion of any Libor Rate Loan occurs on any day other than the last day of the applicable Interest Period for such Loan, the Borrowers also shall pay to the Bank such additional amounts as set forth in Section 2.11(c).

(c) If the Borrowers shall prepay any Libor Rate Loan on a day other than the last day of the applicable Interest Period for such Loan (whether such prepayment is permitted by (i) this Section 2.11 or Section 2.12, (ii) as a result of the failure by the Borrowers to consummate a transaction after providing notice as set forth in Section 2.01(c), (iii) otherwise permitted by the Bank or (iv) otherwise permitted or required under the terms of this Agreement), the Borrowers shall pay to the Bank on demand such additional amounts as are sufficient to indemnify the Bank against any reasonable loss, cost or expense incurred by the Bank as a result of such prepayment including, without limitation, any loss (including loss of anticipated profits), costs or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by the Bank to fund such Loan, and a certificate as to the amount of any such loss, cost or expense submitted by the Bank to the Borrowers in good faith shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.

Illegality; Impracticability.

Notwithstanding any other provision contained in this Agreement, if: (a) it is unlawful, or any central bank or other Official Body shall determine that it is unlawful, for the Bank to perform its obligations hereunder to make or continue Loans hereunder; or (b) on any date on which a Libor Rate would otherwise be set, the Bank shall have in good faith determined (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that (i) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining a Libor Rate, (ii) a contingency has occurred which materially and adversely affects the interbank markets, or (iii) the effective cost to the Bank of funding a proposed Libor Rate Loan exceeds the Libor Rate then (y) upon notice thereof by the Bank to the Borrowers, the obligation of the Bank to make or continue a Loan of a type so affected shall thereafter be an obligation to make Base Rate Loans whenever any written notice requests any type of Loans so affected and (z) within five (5) Business Days after demand therefor by the Bank to the Borrowers, the Borrowers shall (i) forthwith prepay in full all Loans of the type so affected then outstanding, together with interest accrued thereon or (ii) request that the Bank, upon five (5) Business Days’ notice, convert all Loans of the type so affected then outstanding into Loans of a type not so affected. If any such prepayment or conversion of any Libor Rate Loan occurs on any day other than the last day of the applicable Interest Period for such Libor Rate Loan, the Borrowers also shall pay to the Bank such additional amounts as set forth in Section 2.11(c).

2.13

The Bank shall record in the Loan Account the principal amount of the Loans owing to the Bank from time to time. Except in the case of manifest error in computation, the Loan Account will be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers as to the accuracy of the information contained therein. Failure by the Bank to make any such notation or record shall not affect the obligations of the Borrowers to the Bank with respect to the Loans.

Each Borrower irrevocably appoints the Bank as its agent and attorney to execute any such financing statements or other instruments described above in its name or, if applicable, to file any such financing statements or other instruments described above without such Borrower’s signature.

TAXES

eJiva LLC (f/k/a eJiva, Inc.), Emplifi, Inc. and Mastech Application Services, Inc were incorporated in Pennsylvania on February 24, 2000, as wholly-owned subsidiaries of iGate, Inc. (f/k/a Mastech Systems Corporation) as part of iGate Corporation’s reorganization. On May 1, 2000, iGate Inc. contributed operating assets to each of these subsidiaries. On that same date, iGate, Inc. ceased operations and became a holding company in nature. The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania has challenged the timing of iGate Inc.’s holding company status. The Commonwealth’s position is that iGate Inc. elected status as a holding company should not have been utilized in calculating Pennsylvania Capital Stock Tax. The amount in question, $156,413.00, is the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania’s redetermination of Capital Stock Tax due, plus applicable interest and penalties. iGate, Inc. filed an appeal of this decision with the Pennsylvania Board of Appeals on June 13, 2003. The hearing on this issue is scheduled for September 19, 2003.

SCHEDULE 3.12

LITIGATION

IGC is a named defendant in a matter involving Convergys Information Management Group Inc. IGC has retained local counsel in Cincinnati, Ohio to represent it in this matter. IGC also notified all applicable insurance carriers that it will be seeking coverage reimbursement in the event that any damages are awarded. IGC believes that IGC’s financial exposure is limited to a $100,000 deductible under its Professional Liability Policy. A hearing date has been tentatively scheduled for April 2004.

IGC is named as a defendant in a third-party complaint filed by Comprehensive Software Systems, Inc. The parties are currently involved in the discovery process of the case. IGC also notified all applicable insurance carriers that it will be seeking coverage reimbursement in the event that any damages are awarded. It is therefore expected that IGC’s only financial exposure would be limited to applicable deductibles on the appropriate insurance policies. IGC denies all liability in this matter. A hearing date has been tentatively scheduled for February 2004. IGC does not expect the suit to have a Maternal Adverse Effect to its business.
