While we cannot predict all of the risks and uncertainties, they include, but are not limited to, our ability to predict our financial performance, the level of market demand for our services, the highly-competitive market for the types of services

businesses, our ability to attract and retain qualified personnel, our ability to reduce costs and conserve cash, currency fluctuations and market conditions in India and elsewhere around the world, political and military tensions in India and South

Business Overview



The use of Offshore Outsourcing Services for IT and Business Process
Outsourcing Services (BPO) has emerged as a global trend in numerous countries and industries. Our clients recognize that offshore outsourcing is a very effective way to provide high quality, timely and cost-effective IT and BPO
services.



IT Services which we deliver using our offshore
centers include software application development and maintenance, implementation and support of enterprise applications, data management and integration, business intelligence and embedded systems development. We believe that we deliver to our
clients high quality solutions at a substantial savings by using our global pool of highly talented people.

##### Table of Contents

Going forward, our principal strategy is to offer offshore-based BPO services to our clients in various
industries. Some of our current service offerings are non-IT related and include services as diverse as call centers, clinical trials management and mortgage and claims processing. We will continue to expand our BPO service offerings through
acquisitions and strategic relationships and internal initiatives. We believe that such services can be or are being performed offshore, at savings as high as 50% over US/European labor and infrastructure costs.



Business Development



On August 10, 2004, we modified the terms of the acquisition agreement dated as of August 21, 2003 relating to our
acquisition of Quintant Inc. (Initial Quintant Transaction Structure), and entered into a new agreement with the founders and principal shareholders of Quintant (Modified Quintant Transaction Structure). The principal reasons
that the Quintant acquisition structure was modified were (a) to have the Quintant co-founders more closely aligned to the stock value of iGS, rather than the Companys common stock, and (b) to simplify the ownership structure of Quintant
whereby Quintant will be owned 100% by iGS, rather than the original ownership structure where Quintant was jointly owned by iGS and iGate.



Under the Initial Quintant Transaction Structure, we granted 2.1 million restricted shares of our common stock to three Quintant Co-Founders and granted
0.5 million stock options with a $0.00 exercise price to a fourth Quintant Co-Founder. Under the terms of the Modified Quintant Transaction Structure, our restricted shares were cancelled and recorded as a reduction of additional paid in capital,
and all discounted options previously granted were cancelled with no re-issuance.



As part of the Modified Quintant Transaction Structure, we paid the Quintant Co-Founders $4.0 million in cash in August 2004 and $8.9 million in cash in October 2004. The cash payments made in October 2004 were used
by the Quintant Co-Founders to purchase 1,526,211 shares (iGS new shares) of newly issued shares of iGate Global Solutions, our majority-owned Indian subsidiary (iGS). The iGS new shares were purchased at a discount from the
prevailing market value by the Quintant Co-Founders.



Since
August 21, 2003, we recognized compensation expense based upon the vesting of the restricted stock and stock options granted. In October 2004, we accelerated our recognition of compensation expense in the amount of $4.8 million, of which $3.1
million is related to the cancellation of the 2.1 million shares of our restricted stock and $1.7 million related to the cancelled $0.00 exercise price stock options. In addition, we recorded compensation expense in the amount of $5.2 million
related to the Modified Quintant Transaction Structure cash payments and $0.5 million related to the iGS new shares purchased at a discount. These costs were recorded as part of our iGate Solutions segment.



On August 25, 2004, we issued 455,924 shares of iGate Common Stock to two key
employees of Quintant and cancelled 103,222 of stock options issued on August 21, 2003 at $0.00 exercise price. The closing share price of the stock at the date of issuance was $2.92. We recorded compensation expense in the amount of $1.3 million
related to the issuance of the shares and $0.3 million related to the cancelled stock options. These costs were recorded as part of our iGate Solutions segment.



In June 2004, we sold our Australia affiliate, iGate Asia Pacific Pty Ltd. (iGate Australia). In April 2004, we sold our Scotland based
affiliate Direct Resources Pty Ltd. (DRI). Cash received from these transactions approximated $9.8 million. As required under accounting rules, these dispositions were presented as discontinued operations, net of applicable statutory
taxes. Refer to Note 13 to notes to consolidated financial statements for further discussion.



In 2004 and 2003, we made several acquisitions and alliances. The results of the acquired businesses are included in our 2004 and 2003 reportable segments and consolidated results from the date of acquisition of each
company. The following is a brief summary of the acquisitions and alliances that we made in 2004 and 2003. The acquisitions are listed in descending order and by reportable segment, beginning with our most recent acquisition in 2004.

operating segments without the operations of iGate Australia Pty Ltd. and Direct Resources Ltd., which are being treated as discontinued operations. Prior to their sale both entities were part of our IPS operating segment.



The following are brief descriptions of each of our segments.



iGate Solutions



The iGATE Solutions segments service offerings include outsourcing of
IT and BPO (business process outsourcing) services using an onsite / offshore delivery model. This delivery model helps clients achieve greater cost effectiveness through labor arbitrage.



IT services offered include enterprise data management and data warehousing, business intelligence and analytics, design,
development, system integration, package evaluation and implementation, re-engineering and maintenance.



BPO services offered include contact center services and transaction processing services. The contact center services are offered to clients across all
industries and are not industry specifics. The transaction processing services offered are focused on the mortgage banking, insurance and capital market industries, except for the delivery of finance and accounting functionssuch as accounts
payable, billing & collectionwhich can be performed for clients across all industries.



iGS also recently started to offer a combination of IT and BPO services through its innovative Integrated Technology and Operations (ITOPs)
service offering . These services consist in optimizing a clients process and technology, through the use of iGSs proprietary tolls and business accelerators and finally deliver the process from offshore. Clients are expected
to benefit from this innovative business model through more efficient processes and labor arbitrage.



iGate Solutions has ODCs located in Bangalore, Hyderabad, Chennai, Delhi, and Pune, India and Wuxi, China. iGate Solutions has global development centers
(GDCs) located in Canada and the U.S. The centers can deliver both near shore (work performed primarily at the client site) and offshore services, dependent upon customer location and expectations. iGate Solutions operates in
India, Canada, the U.S., Europe, Singapore, Malaysia, Japan and Australia.



The iGate Solutions segment revenues are derived through iGS, our publicly-held Indian subsidiary. Our iGate Solutions segment has approximately 3,710 employees.



The majority of our clients in the iGate Solutions segment have headquarters
in the U.S. and operations throughout the world. We believe our ODCs and GDCs are strategically located in order to service any client regardless of size, scale or geographic location.



The iGate Solutions segment markets its service offerings to large and medium-sized organizations. Certain contracts are
based upon a fixed price with payment based upon deliverables and/or project milestones reached. Certain contracts are time-and-materials based where contract payments are based on the number of consultant hours worked on the project. Customers
typically have the right to cancel contracts with minimal notice. Certain contracts with no stated deliverables, with a designated workforce assigned, recognize revenues on a straight-line basis over the life of the contract, which are typically one
year in duration. Contracts with deliverables or project milestones can provide for certain penalties if the deliverables or project milestones are not met within contract timelines.



The iGate Solutions segment services customers in a wide range of industries. The segments largest customer is General
Electric Company (GE) which accounted for 37%, 35% and 33% of its revenues for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively. iGS is a Global Preferred Partner of GE. Its Global Preferred Partnership status extends
through the end of 2006.

iGate Professional Services (IPS)



The iPS segment provides a variety of client-managed and supervised IT
staffing services. These service offerings include design, development and maintenance of custom applications as well as implementation, integration and support of enterprise packaged applications such as ERP and CRM software provided by third party
vendors such as SAP, Oracle, PeopleSoft and Siebel.



To satisfy
a large client relationship in Canada, iPS also offers billing pass through services on behalf of this client. This is a unique and single situation whereby iPS acts as a vendor management service provider and collects a small fee for its services.
iPS does not expect to offer this service as line of service.



The IPS segment markets its services to application development managers and information technology directors within prospective customers companies. The IPS segment also responds to requests for proposals in order to obtain preferred
vendor status to secure long-term engagement relationships. IPS contracts provide for payments on a time-and-materials basis, based on the number of consultant hours worked on the project. Certain contracts are based upon a fixed price with payment
based upon deliverables and/or project milestones recorded. Clients typically have the right to cancel contracts with minimal notice.



The IPS segment serves a wide variety of customers in numerous industries in the U.S. and Canada. The segments largest customers are International
Business Machine Corporation (IBM) and Wachovia Bank, which account for approximately 23% and 13% of IPS revenues in 2004. In 2003, IBM accounted for 22% of revenue. Wachovia did not have a significant concentration in 2003 and 2002. IPS
has approximately 1,120 employees.



iGate Corporate
(iGate)



Our iGate Corporate segment includes
the operations of jobcurry Systems Private Ltd. (jobcurry), ICRI, DiagnoSearch and corporate and other unallocated costs. jobcurry continues to provide recruiting and placement services for iGate and outside customers. ICRI and
DiagnoSearch contract with pharmaceutical companies to conduct clinical trials on their behalf. DiagnoSearch performs offshore clinical trials. These entities are excluded from the above segments due largely to their dissimilar service offerings and
certain economic characteristics. This segment has approximately 150 employees.



The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies in Note 1 to the notes to the consolidated financial statements. We evaluate segment
performance based upon profit or loss from operations. We do not allocate income taxes, other income or expense, equity in losses of affiliated companies, minority interest, loss on venture investments and affiliated companies, gain on sale of stock
of subsidiaries and gain on deconsolidation of subsidiaries to segments. In addition, we account for inter-segment sales and transfers at current market prices. All inter-segment sales have been eliminated in consolidation.



Seasonality



Our operations are generally not affected by seasonal fluctuations. However, our consultants billable hours are
affected by national holidays and vacation policies, which vary by country and by operating company.



Competition



The IT
services and Offshore Outsourcing services industries are highly competitive, and are served by numerous global, national, regional and local firms. Primary competitors in the IT industry include participants from a variety of market segments,
including the major consulting firms, systems consulting and implementation firms, Internet services and consulting companies, applications software firms, Indian based Offshore Outsourcing companies, service groups of computer equipment companies,
general management consulting firms, programming companies and temporary staffing firms. We believe that the principal competitive factors in the IT services and Offshore Outsourcing markets include the range of services offered, size and scale of
service

##### Table of Contents

provider, global reach, technical expertise, responsiveness to client needs, speed in delivery of IT solutions, quality of service and perceived value. We
believe that we compete favorably with our principal competitors with respect to these factors. Competition for acquisition candidates, as well as for clients and strategic relationships, may also develop among subsidiaries of iGate or between iGate
and one or more of our operating subsidiaries or other companies in which we have equity investments.



Our Partner Companies and Affiliates



The following is a listing as of March 31, 2005 of all of our principal operating subsidiaries and affiliates, including the percentage of our ownership in each of these companies:

All of our ownership positions set forth in the chart in this Item 1 have been calculated based on the issued and outstanding common stock or membership
interests, as the case may be, of each company/entity, assuming the issuance of common stock on the conversion or exercise of preferred stock and convertible notes, but excluding the effect of unexercised options, warrants and unvested restricted
stock, except for the Quintant acquisition discussed more fully in the Notes.



Intellectual Property Rights



We rely upon a
combination of nondisclosure and other contractual arrangements and trade secrets, copyright and trademark laws to protect our proprietary rights and the proprietary rights of third parties from



6

##### Table of Contents

whom we license intellectual property. We enter into confidentiality agreements with our employees and limit the distribution of proprietary information.
There can be no assurance that the steps we take in this regard will be adequate to deter misappropriation of proprietary information or that we will be able to detect unauthorized use and take appropriate steps to enforce our intellectual property
rights.



Generally, all software that we develop in connection
with a client engagement is typically assigned to the client. In limited situations, we may retain ownership or obtain a license from our client, which permits us or a third party to market the software for the joint benefit of the client and iGate
or for our sole benefit.



Human Resources



Our success depends in large part on our ability to attract, develop,
motivate and retain highly skilled IT professionals. We recruit in a number of countries, including India, the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Singapore, Australia, the Philippines, Russia, Ukraine and South Africa. We advertise in
newspapers and trade magazines. In addition, our employees are a valuable recruiting tool and are actively involved in referring new employees and screening candidates for new positions.



We have a focused retention strategy that includes career planning, training, benefits and an incentive plan. Our benefits
package includes subsidized health insurance, a 401(k) plan, group life insurance and a long-term disability plan. We intend to continue to use stock options as part of our recruitment and retention strategy. We also have a training infrastructure.
We train employees on a variety of platforms and help them transition from legacy to advanced architecture skills by providing cross-platform training in new technologies. We have implemented an Intranet to allow our employees to access our
courseware and computer-based training modules via the Internet so that the training is available to all employees worldwide at their individual convenience and pace.



At December 31, 2004, iGate (including its operating subsidiaries) had approximately 4,980 non-unionized employees comprised
of approximately 4,405 IT professionals (including subcontractors) and approximately 575 individuals working in sales, recruiting, general and administrative roles. As of December 31, 2004, approximately 24% of our U.S. workforce was working under
H-1B temporary work permits in the United States. We believe that our relationships with our employees are good.



RISK FACTORS



Our New Business Strategy is Unproven



We have
significantly reorganized our business to reflect our business strategy to increase our focus on our offshore delivery business in India and to expand our offshore business to BPO services, including non-IT related BPO services, and there is no
guarantee that this reorganization will be successful. The success of our new business strategy depends in part on the ability of the iGate companies to work collaboratively, share information and leverage their collective resources to optimize
strategic opportunities and our ability to effectively identify non-IT related BPO services and deliver cost effective solutions. We cannot be certain that this strategy will improve our performance, and it is possible that the strategy will detract
from our performance. The recent difficult economic conditions in many sectors of our business have exacerbated these challenges. In addition, if we cannot convince potential strategic partners of the value of our business model, our ability to
acquire new companies and businesses may be adversely affected and our strategy for continued growth may not succeed.



Recruitment and Retention of IT Professionals



Our business involves the delivery of professional services and is labor-intensive. Our success depends upon our ability to attract, develop, motivate and
retain highly skilled IT professionals and project managers, who possess the technical skills and experience necessary to deliver our services. Despite the general economic



7



---

##### Table of Contents

slowdown, qualified IT professionals are in demand worldwide and are likely to remain a limited resource for the foreseeable future. There can be no
assurance that qualified IT professionals will continue to be available to us in sufficient numbers, or that we will be successful in retaining current or future employees. Failure to attract or retain qualified IT professionals in sufficient
numbers could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition. Historically, we have done most of our recruiting outside of the countries where the client work is performed. Accordingly, any perception among
our IT professionals, whether or not well founded, that our ability to assist them in obtaining temporary work visas and permanent residency status has been diminished, could lead to significant employee attrition.



Government Regulation of Offshore Outsourcing



Recently, some organizations have expressed concerns about a perceived
association between offshore outsourcing and the loss of jobs in the United States. Within the last 12 months, some U.S. states have enacted legislation restricting government agencies from outsourcing their back office processes and IT solutions
work to companies outside the United States. It is also possible that U.S. private sector companies that work with these states may be restricted from outsourcing their work related to government contracts. We currently do not have significant
contracts with U.S. federal or state government entities, however, there can be no assurance that these restrictions will not extend to private companies, such as our clients. Any changes to existing laws or the enactment of new legislation
restricting offshore outsourcing may adversely impact our ability to do business in the United States, particularly if these changes are widespread.



Government Regulation of Immigration



We recruit IT professionals on a global basis and, therefore, must comply with the immigration laws in the countries in which we operate, particularly the
United States. As of December 31, 2004, approximately 24% of our U.S. workforce were working under H-1B temporary work permits in the United States. Statutory law limits the number of new H-1B petitions that may be approved in a fiscal year, and if
we are unable to obtain H-1B visas for our employees in sufficient quantities or at a sufficient rate for a significant period of time, our business, operating results and financial condition could be adversely affected. On October 1, 2003, the H-1B
visa annual quota reverted to 65,000 from 195,000 because the increase in the American Competitiveness in the Twenty-First Century Act was for a three-year period. As a result, the quota for fiscal year 2004 was exhausted in mid-February
of 2004. The quota for fiscal year 2005 was fully allocated in early October of 2004.



On December 8, 2004, the President signed the H-1B Reform Act of 2004. This legislation provides for up to an additional 20,000 H-1B visas per year provided that the H-1B worker possesses at least a
Masters degree awarded by a U.S. college or university. Historically, the iGate operating companies have hired few H-1B workers with this educational profile.



The H-1B Reform Act of 2005 also reinstated the H-1B Dependent attestations and the penalties for their noncompliance. The
legislation also reinstated the special H-1B training-filing fee and increased the amount to $1,500.



In recent years, approximately 98% of our H-1B hires were not subject to the annual quota because they were already in the U.S. in H-1B visa status with
another employer. As a result, the negative impact on recruiting of the exhaustion of the fiscal year 2004 and 2005 H-1B quotas was not substantial. However, unless Congress substantially increases the annual H-1B quota, the pool of H-1B worked in
the U.S. who were charged against previous years quotas will decline. Such a development would make H-1B recruiting more difficult. In the long term, the pool of available H-1B workers in the U.S. that are not subject to the annual quota will
eventually be depleted.



Variability of Quarterly Operating Results



The revenues and operating results of many of the iGate
companies are subject to significant variations from quarter to quarter depending on a number of factors, including the timing and number of client projects



8



---

##### Table of Contents

commenced and completed during the quarter, the number of working days in a quarter, employee hiring, attrition and utilization rates and the mix of
time-and-materials projects versus proportional performance and maintenance projects during the quarter. Certain of the iGate companies recognize revenues on time-and-materials projects as the services are performed, while revenues on proportional
performance projects are recognized using the proportional performance method. Certain contracts with no stated deliverables, with a designated workforce assigned, recognize revenues on a straight-line basis over the life of the contract, which are
typically one year in duration. Although proportional performance projects have not contributed significantly to revenues and profitability to date, operating results may be adversely affected in the future by cost overruns on proportional
performance projects. Because a high percentage of the expenses of many of the iGate companies are relatively fixed, variations in revenues may cause significant variations in operating results. Additionally, the iGate companies periodically incur
cost increases due to both the hiring of new employees and strategic investments in infrastructure in anticipation of future opportunities for revenue growth.



Increasing Significance of Non-U.S. Operations and Risks of International Operations



Our international consulting and offshore software development depend greatly upon business immigration and technology
transfer laws in those countries, and upon the continued development of technology infrastructure. There can be no assurance that our international operations will be profitable or support our growth strategy. The risks inherent in our international
business activities include:



| |  |  | unexpected changes in regulatory environments;
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------



| |  |  | foreign currency fluctuations;
| | - |  | ------------------------------



| |  |  | tariffs and other trade barriers;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------



| |  |  | difficulties in managing international operations; and
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the burden of complying with a wide variety of foreign laws and regulations.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------



Our failure to manage growth, attract and retain personnel, manage major development efforts, profitably deliver services, or a significant
interruption of our ability to transmit data via satellite, could have a material adverse impact on our ability to successfully maintain and develop our international operations and could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating
results and financial condition.



Exposure to Regulatory and General
Economic Conditions in India



Our subsidiary iGS utilizes
offshore software development centers based in Bangalore, Chennai, Hyderabad, Pure and Noida, India. iGS also operates recruiting and training centers in India. The Indian government exerts significant influence over its economy. In the recent past,
the Indian government has provided significant tax incentives and relaxed certain regulatory restrictions in order to encourage foreign investment in certain sectors of the economy, including the technology industry. Certain of these benefits that
directly affect us include, among others, tax holidays (temporary exemptions from taxation on operating income), liberalized import and export duties and preferential rules on foreign investment and repatriation. To be eligible for certain of these
tax benefits, we must continue to meet certain conditions. A failure to meet such conditions in the future could result in the cancellation of the benefits. There can be no assurance that such tax benefits will be continued in the future at their
current levels. Changes in the business or regulatory climate of India could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.



Our wage costs in India have historically been significantly lower than wage costs in the United States and Europe for
comparably skilled professionals, and this has been one of our competitive advantages. However, wage increases in India may prevent us from sustaining this competitive advantage and may negatively affect our profit margins. We may need to increase
the levels of our employee compensation more rapidly than in the past to retain talent. Unless we are able to continue to increase the efficiency and productivity of our employees, wage increases in the long term may reduce our profit margins.

Risks Associated with Covenants in Certain Financing Instruments



In September 2004, we renewed our $25.0 million secured credit facility
(the PNC Facility) with PNC Bank, N.A (PNC) for 365 days. The PNC Facility contains restrictive covenants that require us to meet certain financial criteria on a quarterly basis. We may not be able to continue to satisfy the
financial covenants in these documents. If we cannot satisfy such covenants and we are not able to renegotiate the terms and conditions thereof, we may not have access to funds under the PNC Facility. Currently, the most restrictive covenant is the
obtainment of Tangible Net Worth of at least $88 million. In addition, the PNC Facility requires that we maintain an aggregate of $30 million in cash and cash equivalents at all times during the term of the PNC Facility, of which cash and cash
equivalents in the amount of $25 million have been pledged to PNC for the term of the PNC Facility. Due to our inability to file our Form 10-K by March 31, 2005, we violated an Affirmative Covenant under the PNC Facility requiring us to deliver
audited financial statements to PNC. PNC has waived the default provision. These restrictions on our cash and cash equivalents may restrict our ability to make investments in new and existing businesses. iGS cannot borrow funds under the PNC
Facility.



Intense Competition in the IT and Offshore Outsourcing Services
Industries



The IT and Offshore Outsourcing services
industries are highly competitive and served by numerous global, national, regional and local firms. Primary competitors include participants from a variety of market segments, including the major consulting firms, systems consulting and
implementation firms, India based Offshore Outsourcing services, applications software firms, service groups of computer equipment companies, specialized interest consulting firms, programming companies and temporary staffing firms. Many of these
competitors have substantially greater financial, technical and marketing resources and greater name recognition than we have. There are relatively few barriers to entry into our markets and we may face additional competition from new entrants into
our markets. In addition, there is a risk that clients may elect to increase their internal resources to satisfy their applications solutions needs. Further, the IT services industry is undergoing consolidation, which may result in increasing
pressure on margins. These factors may limit our ability to increase prices commensurate with increases in compensation. There can be no assurance that we will compete successfully with existing or new competitors in the IT and Offshore Outsourcing
services markets.



iGate Companies May Compete with Each Other



iGate Companies may compete with each other for
customers, talented employees and strategic relationships and for acquisition opportunities in the IT and Offshore Outsourcing services industries. Such competition may make it more difficult or costly for iGate Corporation or other iGate companies
to enter into strategic relationships, negotiate acquisitions or conduct business.



Risks Related to Inability to Acquire Additional Businesses



We plan to gradually continue to expand our operations through the acquisition of, or investment in, additional businesses and companies. We may be unable to identify businesses that complement our strategy for
growth. If we do succeed in identifying a company with such a business, we may not be able to proceed to acquire the company, its relevant business or an interest in the company for many reasons, including:



| |  |  | a failure to agree on the terms of the acquisition or investment;
| | - |  | -----------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | incompatibility between iGate Corporation and the management of the company which we wish to acquire or invest;
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | competition from other potential acquirors;
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------



| |  |  | a lack of capital to make the acquisition or investment; and
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | the unwillingness of the company to partner with us.
| | - |  | ----------------------------------------------------



If we are unable to continue acquiring and investing in attractive businesses, our strategy for growth may not succeed.

Risks Related to Completed Acquisitions



There can be no assurance that we will be able to profitably manage additional businesses or successfully integrate any
acquired businesses without substantial expenses, delays or other operational or financial problems. Further, acquisitions may involve a number of special risks, including diversion of managements attention, failure to retain key acquired
personnel, unanticipated events or circumstances and legal liabilities and amortization of acquired intangible assets, some or all of which could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition. Client
satisfaction or performance problems at a single acquired firm could have a material adverse impact on our reputation as a whole. In addition, there can be no assurance that acquired businesses, if any, will achieve anticipated revenues and
earnings. Our failure to manage our acquisition strategy successfully could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.



Risks Associated with Capital Markets



We currently hold interests in non wholly-owned companies. While we generally do not anticipate selling such interests, if we were to divest all or part
of them, we might not receive maximum value for these interests. With respect to such entities with publicly traded stock, we may be unable to sell our interest at then quoted market prices. Furthermore, for those entities that do not have publicly
traded stock, the realizable value of our interest may ultimately prove to be lower than the carrying value currently reflected in our Consolidated Financial Statements. Due to market conditions, it may be difficult for private companies in which we
have invested to undertake public offerings.



Impairment Analysis May Lead
to Recognition of Losses



The carrying amount of the
goodwill on our balance sheet was $9.4 million as of December 31, 2004. We periodically assess the potential impairment of our long-lived assets, such as goodwill, as appropriate. If, as a result of such an assessment, we were to determine that the
carrying amount of this goodwill was not recoverable, we would reduce the carrying amount in the period in which the determination was made. Any reduction would result in the recognition of a one-time impairment loss, which would have an adverse
effect on our financial results in the period in which the loss was recognized.



The carrying amount of our investments in unconsolidated affiliates was $4.0 million as of December 31, 2004. If we were to determine that the value of such investments had declines judged to be permanent or other
than temporary, we would reduce the carrying amount of the investments. Any reduction would result in the recognition of a one-time impairment loss, which would have an adverse effect on our financial results in the period in which the loss was
recognized.



Concentration of Revenues; Risk of Termination



Our revenues are highly dependent on clients primarily located in the
United States, as well as clients concentrated in certain industries, and economic slowdowns, changes in U.S. law and other restrictions or factors that affect the economic health of the United States and these industries may affect our business. In
the year ended December 31, 2004, approximately 72% of our revenues were derived from the United States. Consequently, if the current economic slowdown in the United States is prolonged, our clients may reduce or postpone their IT spending
significantly, which may in turn lower the demand for our services and negatively affect our revenues and profitability. Further, any significant decrease in the growth of the financial services or other industry segments on which we focus may
reduce the demand for our services and negatively affect our revenues and profitability.



We have in the past derived, and may in the future derive, a significant portion of our revenues from a relatively limited number of clients. Our five largest clients represented approximately 46%, 38% and 30% of
revenues for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively. In the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, GE accounted for 19%, 22% and 19% of our revenues, respectively. Most of our projects

are terminable by the client without penalty. An unanticipated termination of a major project could result in the loss of substantial anticipated revenues
and could require us to maintain or terminate a significant number of unassigned IT professionals, resulting in a higher number of unassigned IT professionals and/or significant termination expenses. The loss of any significant client or project
could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.



Rapid Technological Change; Dependence on New Solutions



The IT and Offshore Outsourcing services industries are characterized by rapid technological change, evolving industry standards, changing client
preferences and new product introductions. Our success will depend in part on our ability to develop IT solutions that keep pace with industry developments. There can be no assurance that we will be successful in addressing these developments on a
timely basis or that, if these developments are addressed, we will be successful in the marketplace. In addition, there can be no assurance that products or technologies developed by others will not render our services noncompetitive or obsolete.
Our failure to address these developments could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.



A significant number of organizations are attempting to migrate business applications from a mainframe environment to advanced technologies. As a result,
our ability to remain competitive will be dependent on several factors, including our ability to help existing employees maintain or develop mainframe skills and to train and hire employees with skills in advanced technologies. Our failure to hire,
train and retain employees with such skills could have a material adverse impact on our business. Our ability to remain competitive will also be dependent on our ability to design and implement, in a timely and cost-effective manner, effective
transition strategies for clients moving from legacy systems to advanced architectures. Our failure to design and implement such transition strategies in a timely and cost-effective manner could have a material adverse effect on our business,
operating results and financial condition.



Dependence on Principals



Our success is highly dependent on the efforts and
abilities of Sunil Wadhwani and Ashok Trivedi, the Co-Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of iGate Corporation and the Co-Chairman and President of iGate Corporation, respectively. Although Messrs. Wadhwani and Trivedi have entered into employment
agreements containing noncompetition, nondisclosure and nonsolicitation covenants, these contracts do not guarantee that they will continue their employment with us or that such covenants will be enforceable. The loss of the services of either of
these key executives for any reason could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.



Risk of Preferred Vendor Contracts



We are party to several preferred vendor contracts and we are seeking additional similar contracts in order to obtain new or additional
business from large or medium-sized clients. Clients enter into these contracts to reduce the number of vendors and obtain better pricing in return for a potential increase in the volume of business to the preferred vendor. While these contracts are
expected to generate higher volumes, they generally result in lower margins. Although we attempt to lower costs to maintain margins, there can be no assurance that we will be able to sustain margins on such contracts. In addition, the failure to be
designated a preferred vendor, or the loss of such status, may preclude us from providing services to existing or potential clients, except as a subcontractor, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, operating results and
financial condition.



Risks Associated with Intellectual Property Rights



Our success depends in part upon certain methodologies
and tools we use in designing, developing and implementing applications systems and other proprietary intellectual property rights. We rely upon a combination of nondisclosure and other contractual arrangements and trade secrets, copyright and
trademark laws to protect



12



---

##### Table of Contents

our proprietary rights and the proprietary rights of third parties from whom we license intellectual property. We enter into confidentiality agreements with
our employees and limit distribution of proprietary information. There can be no assurance that the steps we take in this regard will be adequate to deter misappropriation of proprietary information or that we will be able to detect unauthorized use
and take appropriate steps to enforce our intellectual property rights.



Although we believe that our services do not infringe on the intellectual property rights of others and that we have all rights necessary to utilize the intellectual property employed in our business, we are subject to the risk of
litigation alleging infringement of third-party intellectual property rights. Any claims, whether or not meritorious, could:



| |  |  | be expensive and time-consuming to defend;
| | - |  | ------------------------------------------



| |  |  | cause significant installation delays;
| | - |  | --------------------------------------



| |  |  | divert managements attention and resources; and/or
| | - |  | ---------------------------------------------------



| |  |  | require us to enter into royalty or licensing arrangements, which may not be available on acceptable terms, or may not be available at all.
| | - |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



A successful claim of product infringement against us or our failure or
inability to license the infringed or similar technology could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.



Fixed-Price Projects



We undertake certain projects billed on a fixed-price basis. We recognize revenue from these contracts on a proportional performance basis, which is
different from our principal method of billing, the time-and-materials basis. Failure to complete such projects within budget would expose us to risks associated with cost overruns, which could have a material adverse effect on our business,
operating results and financial condition.



Potential Liability to Clients



Many of our engagements involve projects that are
critical to the operations of our clients businesses and provide benefits that may be difficult to quantify. Although we attempt to contractually limit our liability for damages arising from errors, mistakes, omissions or negligent acts in
rendering our services, there can be no assurance that our attempts to limit liability will be successful. Our failure or inability to meet a clients expectations in the performance of our services could result in a material adverse change to
the clients operations and therefore could give rise to claims against us or damage our reputation, adversely affecting our business, operating results and financial condition.



Failure to achieve and maintain effective internal controls could result in a negative market reaction



We are in the process of documenting and testing our internal control
procedures in order to satisfy the requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, which requires annual management assessments of the effectiveness of our internal controls over financial reporting and report by our Independent Registered
Public Accountants addressing these assessments. During the course of testing, we have identified certain deficiencies relating to ineffective controls over the application and monitoring of cash payments received from customers and issuance of
customer credit memos and discounts. These deficiencies or any other failure to maintain the adequacy of our internal controls could impair our ability to provide reliable financial reports or prevent fraud. Such deficiencies could also cause
investors to lose confidence in our reported financial information, and could result in a negative market reaction. As a result of these deficiencies, our management believes that a material weakness exists and, therefore, we have disclosed in this
Form 10-K that our internal control over financial reporting was not effective as of December 31, 2004. We anticipate that our independent registered public accounting firm will issue an adverse opinion on the operating effectiveness of our internal
control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2004. There can be no assurance that additional deficiencies will not be detected as a result of the continuing review.

|ITEM 7. | MANAGEMENTS DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
|------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Overview



iGate Corporation, formerly named iGate Capital Corporation, through its operating subsidiaries, is a worldwide provider of IT and Offshore Outsourcing
services to large and medium-sized organizations. From inception and through February 2000, we conducted the majority of our business under the name of Mastech Corporation through our wholly owned subsidiary Mastech Systems Corporation, a
Pennsylvania corporation that was formed in July 1986.



In
March 2000, we transferred substantially all of the assets of Mastech Systems Corporation to subsidiary operating companies. This reorganization was done to enable us to identify and penetrate emerging IT markets quickly and effectively. In
addition, this strategy enabled us to expand our existing portfolio of services as well as to create new service offerings. We also acquired majority interests or made strategic investments in a number of companies in the internal related services
market sector.



Our operating subsidiaries provide clients with
a source for a broad range of IT applications solutions and Offshore Outsourcing Services including: client/server design and development, conversion/migration services, ERP package implementation and integration services, software development and
applications maintenance outsourcing.



As discussed in our
Business Developments section, we modified the terms of the Quintant acquisition and sold iGate Australia and DRI.



Critical Accounting Policies



The following explains our most critical accounting policies. See Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements set forth on pages 45 to 52 of this Form
10-K for a complete description of our significant accounting policies.



Use
of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements



The preparation of our financial statements requires us to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reporting period. All of the estimates that we make in preparing our financial statements are in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America. Actual results could differ from our estimates, which could impact our earnings.



Revenue Recognition



We
recognize revenue on time-and-materials contracts as the services are performed. Time and materials contracts typically bill at an agreed upon hourly rate. Revenue is earned when our consultants are working on projects. Revenue recognition is
negatively impacted by holidays and consultant vacation and sick days. We also have fixed price arrangements with certain customers. A price for an entire project is agreed upon before the project starts for a predetermined fee. We recognize
revenues on fixed-price contracts using the proportional performance method. We prepare a budget for each fixed price project, and based upon the budget that we prepare, we estimate what our costs should be. We determine performance by comparing the
actual cost of work performed to date to the estimated total cost for each contract. We recognize revenue based upon costs incurred by our consultants during the period. If our estimates indicate a loss on a particular fixed-price contract, we
record a provision for the estimated loss without regard to the stage of completion. Changes in job performance, conditions and estimated profitability may result in revisions to costs and revenues and are recognized in the period in which the
changes are identified. Certain contracts with no stated deliverables, with a designated workforce assigned, recognize revenues on a straight-line basis over the life of the contract, which are typically one year in duration. Revenue on these
contracts is ratable and predetermined based upon the negotiated contract.

Accounts Receivable and Allowance for Uncollectible Accounts



We extend credit to clients based upon managements assessment of their
creditworthiness. Substantially all of our revenues (and the resulting accounts receivable) are from Fortune 500 companies, major systems integrators and U.S. governmental agencies.



Unbilled receivables represent amounts recognized as revenues for the periods presented based on services performed in
accordance with the terms of client contracts that will be invoiced in subsequent periods.



We review accounts receivable periodically to determine the probability of loss. The allowance for uncollectible accounts is determined using the combination of the specific identification method for balances deemed
uncollectible, as well as judgments made by us based upon historical and expected charge-off experience. If the financial condition of our customers deteriorates or if economic conditions worsen, additional allowances may be necessary, which may
impact earnings.



Investments



Investments in money market funds are stated at cost, which approximates
fair value. Investments in marketable equity securities are accounted for in accordance with Statements of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities (SFAS 115). We
have determined that certain of our investments in marketable equity securities are classified as available-for-sale and recorded at fair value, utilizing the investments closing price at each reporting period. These investments are recorded
on the balance sheet at market value, with the unrealized gains or losses, net of tax, reported as a component of comprehensive loss in the Consolidated Statement of Shareholders Equity and Comprehensive Loss. The unrealized gain or loss is
the difference between our original cost for an investment and the investments fair value at each reporting period. Realized gains or losses on securities sold are calculated using the specific identification method.



If management determines that an investment in available-for-sale securities
has sustained an other-than-temporary decline in its value, the investment is written down to its fair value by a charge to earnings. Such evaluation is dependent on the specific facts and circumstances of the respective investment. Factors that are
considered by us in determining whether an other-than-temporary decline in value has occurred include: the market value of the security in relation to its cost basis; the financial condition of the investee; and the intent and ability to retain the
investment for a sufficient period of time to allow for recovery in the market value of the investment.



In evaluating these factors, management presumes a decline in value to be other-than-temporary if the market price of the security is 20% or more below
the investments cost basis for a period of six months or more (the 20% criteria). However, the presumption of an other-than-temporary decline in these instances may be overcome if there is persuasive evidence indicating that the
decline is temporary in nature (e.g., strong operating performance of investee, historical volatility of investee, etc.). Additionally, there may be instances where impairment losses are recognized even if the 20% criteria is not satisfied (e.g.,
plan to sell the security in the near term and the fair value is below our cost basis). During 2002, we incurred impairment losses deemed to be other-than-temporary. These impairments are discussed in Note 4 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.



We account for investments in businesses in which we own
between 20% and 50% of equity or otherwise acquire management influence using the equity method as prescribed by Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 18, The Equity Method of Accounting for Investments in Common Stock(APB18). Investments in which we acquire less than a 20% interest, or in which we do not acquire management influence are accounted for using the cost method of accounting or, if publicly traded, as available-for-sale
securities. For investments accounted for using the cost or equity method of accounting, management evaluates information (e.g., budgets,

business plans, financial statements, etc.) in addition to quoted market price, if any, in determining whether an other-than-temporary decline in value
exists. Factors indicative of an other-than-temporary decline include recurring operating losses, credit defaults and subsequent rounds of financings at an amount below the cost basis of an investment. This list is not all-inclusive and management
weighs all quantitative factors in determining if an other-than-temporary decline in value of an investment has occurred.



Goodwill and Intangible Assets



Goodwill is the excess of purchase price over the value of the net assets acquired. Goodwill is assessed for impairment at least annually or as triggering
events occur. In making this assessment, we rely on a combination of factors including operating results, business plans, economic projections, anticipated cash flows and our current market value. There are inherent uncertainties related to these
factors and managements judgment in applying them to the analyses of goodwill impairment. Under SFAS 142, goodwill impairment is deemed to exist if the net book value of a reporting unit exceeds its estimated fair value. Estimated fair values
of reporting units underlying the segments were estimated using either a discounted cash flow methodology, recent comparable transactions or a combination thereof. For further discussions, see Note 5 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.



Stock Based Compensation



At December 31, 2004, the Company had three stock-based employee
compensation plans, which are described more fully in Note 11. SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation (SFAS 123), gives companies the option to adopt the fair value method for expense recognition of employee stock
options or to continue to account for employee stock options using the intrinsic value method, as outlined under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees(APB 25). The Company has
elected to continue to apply the intrinsic value method to account for employee stock options and discloses the pro forma effect as if the fair value method had been applied in Note 11. The following table illustrates the effect on net loss per
share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS 123 to stock-based employee compensation:

Income Taxes



We record an estimated liability for income and other taxes based on what we
determine will likely be paid in the various tax jurisdictions in which we operate. Management uses its best judgment in the determination of these amounts. However, the liabilities ultimately realized and paid are dependent on various matters,
including the resolution of the tax audits in the various affected tax jurisdictions, and may differ from the amounts recorded. An adjustment to the estimated liability would be recorded through income in the period in which it becomes probable that
the amount of the actual liability differs from the amount recorded.



We record valuation allowances to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount that is more likely than not to be realized. When assessing the need for valuation allowances, we consider future taxable income and ongoing prudent and feasible tax
planning strategies. Should a change in circumstances lead to a change in judgment

about the realizability of deferred tax assets in future years, we would adjust related valuation allowances in the period that the change in circumstances
occurs, along with a corresponding increase or charge to income.



Results of
Operations of Our Operating Segments: iGate Solutions, IPS and iGate Corporate for the Year Ended December 31, 2004 as Compared to the Year Ended December 31, 2003:



Effective April 1, 2004, we recast our segments to include the operations of GFS as part of the IPS segment. Previously, GFS
was included in the iGate Solutions segment. All prior periods have been reclassified to reflect the change to our segment reporting. The following discussion also compares our operating segments without the operations of iGate Australia Pty Ltd.
and Direct Resources Ltd., which are being treated as discontinued operations. Prior to their sale in 2004 both entities were part of our IPS operating segment.

iGate Solutions



Revenues for iGate Solutions for the year ended December 31, 2004 were $131.5 million, a decrease of $14.4 million or 9.9%,
as compared to $145.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2003. During the year, our customers have moved portions of the work we used to do for them in the U.S. to India, at much lower billing rates, negatively affecting our revenue base. In
addition, we have experienced revenue declines in our top ten customer base, have begun to wind down some revenue streams that do not have an offshore focus and have been unable to increase our non-GE revenues as rapidly as we expected. Sales cycles
in the offshore outsourcing solutions business may extend to twelve months from the initial sales meeting before a services contract is finalized and a sale is made. Because of this, we cannot accurately forecast what impact our revised marketing
approach will have on revenues in the upcoming year.



The gross
margin as a percentage of sales (gross margin percentage) for iGate Solutions was 29.8% for the year ended December 31, 2004, as compared to 31.0% for the year ended December 31, 2003. The factors contributing to the decline in gross
margins were a combination of pricing pressures from customers, higher utilization of subcontracted labor versus salaried consultants, wage increases and project cost overruns related to direct labor on projects.



Selling, general and administrative expenses (S,G&A) include
all costs that are not directly associated with our iGate Solutions segments revenue generating consultants. S,G&A expenses include non-consultant salaries and employee benefits, recruiting and training costs, rent, depreciation and
amortization, as well as communications and facilities costs. Also included in S,G&A costs are compensation charges incurred as a result of the modification of the Quintant transaction and amortization of acquired intangible assets incurred as a
result of acquisitions within iGate Solutions. S,G&A costs for the year ended December 31, 2004 were $55.2 million or 42.0% of revenues, as compared to $47.7 million or 32.7% of revenues for the year ended December 31, 2003. While S,G&A
costs increased $7.5 million on a comparative basis, $12.1 million was related to the acceleration of compensation expense related to the modification of the Quintant transaction. Without the accleration of compensation expense, SGA costs would have
been $43.1 million, a decrease of $4.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2004. Salary related costs decreased $5.1 million from 2003, through employee attrition and the restructuring and winding down of Red Brigade in the U.K. In addition,
travel and other related costs decreased $2.0 million as we continue to migrate our projects and workers permanently offshore decreasing the need for travel. Those savings were offset by increases in depreciation and rent in the amount of $2.5
million related to 2003 iGS acquisitions. Unless we experience significant growth, we expect our costs to approximate 30% of revenues during the upcoming year.



Additional operating items included costs associated with a termination of leased office space in the U.K. in the amount of $4.9 million and during the
year ended December 31, 2004, we sold a tract of land in India and realized a gain of $3.6 million.



Operating loss as a percentage of sales (operating loss percentage) for the year ended December 31, 2004 was 13.2%, as compared to an
operating loss percentage of 2.1% for the year ended December 31, 2003. Our operating loss for the current period was due to lower gross margins and increases in S,G&A costs attributable to accelerated compensation expense related to the
modification of the Quintant transaction and continued investments in our offshore infrastructure. We believe we have the necessary cost infrastructure in place to become profitable if revenue grows.



iGate Professional Services (IPS)



Revenues for IPS for the year ended December 31, 2004 were $131.2 million,
an increase of $38.1 million or 40.9%, as compared to $93.1 million. This includes adjustments recorded in 2004 in the amount of $0.8 million related to adjustments of certain customer accounts receivable balances. These adjustments were due to
customer credits and discounts. Overall demand for our staffing services has increased for the period as we continue to see favorable trends in the IT services market.

##### Table of Contents

Gross margin percentage for IPS was 20.7% for the year ended December 31, 2004, as compared to 24.8% for
the year ended December 31, 2003. The contributing factors to the decline in gross margin were a combination of pricing pressures, increases in subcontractor versus salaried consultants and increases in business from the preferred vendor
pass-through arrangement in our Canadian staffing operations. Pass through arrangements allow for minimal profit margins on services rendered. As we continue to increase the pass through portion of our business our gross margins will continue to be
negatively impacted.



S,G&A costs for the year ended
December 31, 2004 were $17.0 million or 13.0% of revenues, as compared to $13.9 million or 14.9% of revenues. We increased our bad debt expense by $2.0 million for certain accounts that we believe will not be collectible. While our S,G&A costs
increased in absolute dollars, it has decreased as a percentage of revenues.



Additional operating items included $0.9 million of costs associated with a termination of leased office space in Canada.



Operating income percentage was 7.0% for the years ended December 31, 2004 and 9.9% for the year ended December 31, 2003. Operating income decreased by
$0.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2004, due to increases in revenue which were offset by increases in S,G&A costs.



iGate Corporate (iGate)



Revenues for iGate for the year ended December 31, 2004 were $1.9 million, an increase of $0.3 million from revenues of $1.6 million for the comparable
year ended December 31, 2003. This increase in revenue over the comparable period was due to our acquisition of DiagnoSearch and increases in revenue from jobcurry.



Gross margin percentage was 39.9% for the year ended December 31, 2004, as compared to 42.3% for the year ended December 31,
2003. Our gross margins have remained consistent for comparable periods as revenue increases in jobcurry of $0.4 million have offset decreases in gross margins of DiagnoSearch.



S,G&A costs were $9.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2004, as compared to $11.4 million. Our S,G&A costs
decreased due to decreases in accounting and legal costs in 2004. Our costs in 2003 included restructuring costs of $0.1 million.



Other Income (Expense) Components



Interest income for the year ended December 31, 2004 was $0.9 million, a decrease of $1.8 million, as compared to $2.7 million for the year ended December
31, 2003. The decrease was due to decreases in investment yields and uninvested cash.



Interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2004 was $0.1 million and was consistent with interest expense of $0.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2003. Interest expense for both years is related to
discounted liabilities for an employment agreement and restructuring costs.



Other income, net for the year ended December 31, 2004 was $0.6 million as compared to other expense, net of $0.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2003. Other income for 2004 consisted of favorable foreign
currency translation gains on our intercompany debt and a favorable settlement on escrowed claims related to a prior acquisition. Components of expense for 2003 consisted of foreign currency translation losses of $0.2 million and interest
accretion of $0.7 million related to a put option and bonus accrual and miscellaneous expense of $0.1 million.



We recognized a loss on affiliated companies of $0.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2004, as compared to a loss of $0.1 million for the year
ended December 31, 2003. These losses were related to our investments in CIBER and Software AG.

Minority interest expense was $0.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2004 and relates to the income
of iGS and the losses incurred by Quintant and DiagnoSearch. Minority interest expense was $0.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2003 and included the income of iGS and the losses of Quintant and DiagnoSearch.



In 2003, we recorded an impairment charge on our investment in Air2Web of
$0.3 million and recognized a $0.3 million gain on our sale of Red Hat stock. These gain and losses are included as a component of Loss on Venture Investments and Affiliated Companies in the Consolidated Statement of Operations.



Our income tax provision was $5.1 million at a negative effective rate of
30.4% for the year ended December 31, 2004. The significant items comprising our effective tax rate were valuation allowances recorded against certain deferred tax assets. As a result of the asset sale of Red Brigade, deferred tax assets of
approximately $2.9 million from net operating losses generated in prior years will expire and not be utilized. iGS will renew an Indian tax holiday related to its new Whitefield campus. The tax holiday will extend through 2009. Our income tax
provision was $2.2 million on a loss from continuing operations of $3.4 million at a negative effective rate of approximately 63% for the year ended December 31, 2003. The significant items comprising our negative effective rate include the
additional tax on deemed distributions from iGS as a result of the eJiva transaction.



On a consolidated basis, we incurred a net loss from continuing operations of $22.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2004, as compared to net loss of $5.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2003. Our net
loss is primarily due to our increased investment in infrastructure costs of our offshore locations, the restructuring charges related to our UK operations and valuation allowances recorded against deferred tax assets.



For the year ended December 31, 2004, our discontinued operations, which is
comprised of our Australian and DRI entities, had after tax income of $3.8 million, as compared with a net loss of $3.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2003. In June 2004, we sold Australia and DRI, recognizing a gain of approximately $3.7
million. The income in 2004 was mainly due to the gain on the sale of Australia which occurred in June 2004. The loss in 2003 was mainly due to goodwill impairments related to Australia.

iGate Solutions



Revenues for our iGate Solutions segment for the year ended December 31, 2003 were $145.8 million, an increase of $3.3
million, or 2.3%, as compared to $142.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2002. During the year ended December 31, 2003, the acquisition of AquaRegia, Quintant, IdeaSpace and certain businesses of IT&T by iGS contributed $2.8 million of
revenue to the iGate Solutions segment. Without these 2003 acquisitions, revenues for the iGate Solutions segment would have been slightly higher from the prior fiscal year, which is a result of not being able to significantly grow our non-GE
revenues and due to the reorganization of our sales and marketing team.



The gross margin percentage for iGate Solutions were 31.0% for the year ended December 31, 2003, as compared to 33.4% for the year ended December 31, 2002. Our acquisitions had a 0.8% favorable impact on iGate Solutions gross margins for
the year ended December 31, 2003. We cannot determine what impact iGate Solutions acquisitions will have on gross margins in future periods. The contributing factors that led to the decline in gross margins were a combination of pricing pressures
from customers, higher utilization of subcontracted labor versus salaried consultants, increases in wage and bench costs, project cost overruns and the unfavorable impact of blended rate contracts, which contributed approximately 14% of iGate
Solutions revenues. Billing rates for blended rate contracts are determined based upon the anticipated utilization of onsite/near shore services (services provided primarily in North America) and offshore services (services
provided primarily in India) for the particular project. Once established, these rates are fixed for purposes of these contracts.



S,G&A expenses include all costs that are not directly associated with our iGate Solutions segments revenue generating consultants. S,G&A expenses
included non-consultant salaries and employee benefits, recruiting and training costs, rent, depreciation and amortization, communications, facilities costs, restructuring costs and goodwill impairment. Also included in S,G&A costs are deferred
compensation charges incurred as a result of the acquisition of Quintant and amortization of acquired intangible assets incurred as a result of acquisitions within iGate Solutions. S,G&A costs for the iGate Solutions segment for the year ended
December 31, 2003 were $47.7 million or 32.7% of revenues, which included $0.5 million of additional restructuring costs. In 2002, iGate Solutions S,G&A costs were $42.9 million or 30.1% of revenues, which included $3.4 million of restructuring
costs and $24.3 million of goodwill impairment charges. Our S,G&A costs increased $8.4 million due to our acquisitions of AquaRegia, IT&T, Quintant and IdeaSpace. Deferred compensation expense of $1.5 million and amortization of intangible
assets of $0.9 million were incurred as a result of the iGate Solutions acquisitions.



Operating loss for the iGate Solutions segment for the year ended December 31, 2003 was 2.1% as compared to an operating loss percentage of 16.0% for the year ended December 31, 2002. The operating loss percentage in
2003 included $6.2 million for the iGate Solutions acquisitions and without these losses, the iGate solutions segment would have had operating income.



Operating loss in 2002 was mainly attributable to restructuring costs and write-offs of impaired goodwill associated with prior acquisitions.



iGate Professional Services (IPS)



Revenues for our IPS segment for the year ended December 31, 2003 were $93.1
million, a decrease of $14.5 million or 13.5% as compared to $107.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2002. Factors contributing to the decrease in revenues for IPS were attributable to continued weakness in IT spending specifically in the
U.K., decreases in consultant utilization and declines in overall billable consultant headcount. Because of competitive pricing pressures, billing rates for consultants for comparable years have had a negative impact on revenues.



The gross margin percentage for our IPS segment, including billable expenses,
was 24.8% for the year ended December 31, 2003, as compared to 27.8% for the year ended December 31, 2002. The decrease in gross margin percentage in this segment was attributable to a combination of pricing pressures, increases in employee related
costs and benefits, as well as increased usage of subcontractor labor. During the year, we have also

expanded an existing relationship as a preferred vendor in Canada, in which we act as a vendor management provider. Our margins on these engagements are
minimal, and due to this, our overall IPS gross margin percentage is impacted.



S,G&A costs for the IPS segment for the year ended December 31, 2003 were $13.9 million or 14.9% of revenues, as compared to $18.9 million, or 17.6% of revenues for the year ended December 31, 2002. Factors
contributing to the decline in S,G&A costs were attributable to better management of employee headcount and other operating costs. We incurred goodwill impairment charges of $1.7 million in 2002.



Operating income percentage for the year ended December 31, 2003 was 9.9%, as
compared to an operating income percentage of 8.6% for the year ended December 31, 2002. The operating income in 2002 was attributable to better management of S,G&A costs.



iGate Corporate



iGate Corporate reports the results of ICRI, DiagnoSearch and jobcurry. ICRI and DiagnoSearch were acquired in 2003. jobcurry continues to provide
recruiting and placement services for iGate Corporate and outside customers. Revenues for the segment for the year ended December 31, 2003 were $1.7 million, an increase of $1.1 million, or 182.1% from revenues of $0.6 million for the year ended
December 31, 2002. The increase in revenues on a comparable basis was due to the acquisitions of ICRI and DiagnoSearch, the deconsolidation of itiliti and the closure of MobileHelix, which both occurred in 2002. ICRI and DiagnoSearch contributed
$0.9 million to iGate Corporate revenues for 2003.



Due to our
2003 acquisition of ICRI and DiagnoSearch, gross margins were 42.3% for the year ended December 31, 2003 and 5.3% for the year ended December 31, 2002.



iGate Corporate segment S,G&A expenses for the year ended December 31, 2003 were $11.4 million, an increase of $0.7 million from S,G&A costs of
$10.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2002. S,G&A costs on a comparative basis increased from year to year due to costs incurred related to our 2003 acquisitions. Restructuring costs incurred were $0.8 million in 2002. Our acquisitions
related to Quintant, IT &T, ICRI and DiagnoSearch contributed $1.5 million of additional corporate S,G&A costs.

interest amounted to expense of $0.3 million and $0.4 million for the years ended December 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively. The minority interest expense in 2003 was the minority share of the net income of iGS offset by the net losses of ICRI,
Quintant and DiagnoSearch. The minority interest expense in 2002 consisted of the minority share of the net income of iGS.

Investing Activities



Cash used by investing activities was $0.9 million in 2004 as compared to

Our capital expenditures were $14.9 million, $6.3 million and $1.4 million in 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively. Significant portions of capital expenditures in 2004 and 2003 were due to the construction of our
Whitefield (Whitefield) campus located in India, while 2002 capital expenditures were due to normal business purposes.



We have decreased our short-term investment portfolios by approximately $4.3 million and $13.4 million in 2004 and 2003, respectively, using portions of
the proceeds of the sales for the construction of our Whitefield campus. In 2002, we purchased $9.1 million of short-term investments.



During the year ended December 31, 2004, we sold Australia and DRI for cash proceeds of $7.2 million. We also sold a tract of land held in India for $4.8
million. We purchased Saint Life for $0.6 million in cash and invested $1.6 million in our two joint ventures CIBER and Software AG.

Financing Activities



Cash provided by financing activities was $3.0 million in 2004 and $1.0 million in 2003, as compared to a $9.5 million use of cash in 2002. Sources of
cash related to stock option exercises of $1.9 million and $1.0 million for 2004 and 2003, respectively. In 2004, we issued 220,873 shares of iGS stock to Concours for proceeds of $1.1 million. In 2002, we paid GE $10.0 million related to the

Restructurings



We restructured our businesses in 2004, 2003, 2002 and 2001. As a result of these restructurings, we will be required to make cash payments in future
years. The nature of the payments and the reasons for the restructurings are discussed more fully in Note 6 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. The following table details the cash payments that we will be required to make in the future years:

During 2004, iGS
invested approximately $1.1 million to establish an alliance with The Concours Group, and invested $0.4 million into joint ventures with Software AG and CIBER. iGS may be required to continue to fund these two joint ventures in proportion to their

We renewed our secured credit
facility (New Facility) with PNC Bank on September 16, 2004 for 365 days. Our borrowing availability under the new facility is $25.0 million. We have no outstanding borrowings on the New Facility at December 31, 2004. As part of our
agreement with PNC Bank, we are required to maintain cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments of at least $30.0 million and maintain net tangible worth of at least $88 million. Due to our inability to file our form 10-K by March 31,
2005, we violated an Affirmative Covenant under the New Facility requiring us to deliver audited financial statements to PNC. PNC has waived the default provision.



Unless otherwise discussed, we did not use our cash reserves for any other significant financing or investing activities,
with the exception of cash being transferred from money-market accounts or other short-term investments (purchases of $36.4 million and sales of $40.7 million), certain capital expenditures that were incurred during the normal course of business
(net additions of $14.9 million) and the exercise of employee stock options of $1.9 million.



ICRI and Quintant, Inc. are development stage companies. While both companies have their own cash reserves for operating purposes, we may be required to fund their operations, if cash reserves are not adequate.



Contractual Commitments



As part of our acquisition of DiagnoSearch, we may be required to fund their
existing operations for an amount of up to $3.0 million, based upon mutually agreed upon operating needs. We funded $0.5 million of this requirement in 2004 and $0.3 million in 2003.

Off-Balance Sheet
Arrangements



We do not have any off-balance arrangements.



Market Risk Factors



We are exposed to market risks from adverse changes in foreign exchange
rates, interest rates, especially the Indian Rupee (Rupee). We do not engage in speculative or leveraged transactions, nor do we hold or issue financial instruments for trading purposes.



Foreign Exchange Rate Sensitivity



iGSs cash flow and earnings are subject to fluctuations due to
exchange rate variation between the Rupee and USD. This foreign currency risk exists based upon the nature of the iGSs operations. The majority of iGSs customers and revenue are U.S. based, which provides an inherent foreign currency
risk between US and Rupee exchange rates.

##### Table of Contents

We attempt to limit our exposure to changing Rupee rates mainly through financial market transactions.
These transactions may include entering into forward or option contracts to hedge existing exposures. The instruments are used to reduce risk by essentially creating offsetting currency exposures. The following table presents information related to
foreign currency contracts held by the Company:

The net unrealized gains/(losses) were
calculated using a Rupee Exchange rate of 43.253.



As of
December 31, 2004, our forward contracts to hedge intercompany cash flows mature within one year. As each contract matures, iGS will receive Rupees at the contracted (strike price) rate while delivering the USD equivalent of Rupees at
the prevailing Rupee exchange rate. Contracts that meet qualifying criteria are accounted for as foreign currency cash flow hedges. Accordingly, the effective portion of gains and losses is deferred as a component of other comprehensive loss and is
recognized in earnings at the time the hedged item affects earnings. Any gains and losses due to hedge ineffectiveness or related to contracts which do not qualify for hedge accounting are recorded in current period earnings in other income and
expense. At December 31, 2004, the forward contracts to hedge intercompany cash flows did not meet qualifying criteria to receive hedge accounting and, as such, iGS appropriately recorded the net unrealized gain of $0.1 million as Other Income.



As of December 31, 2004, our option contracts to hedge
intercompany cash flows mature within one year. As each contract matures and dependent upon prevailing Rupee exchange rates, iGS will have the option to either buy USDs at each contracted put strike price or sell USDs at each contracted
call strike price. Contracts that meet qualifying criteria are accounted for as foreign currency cash flow hedges. Accordingly, the effective portion of gains and losses is deferred as a component of other comprehensive loss and is
recognized in earnings at the time the hedged item affects earnings. Any gains and losses due to hedge ineffectiveness or related to

contracts which do not qualify for hedge accounting are recorded in current period earnings in other income and expense. At December 31, 2004, the option
contracts to hedge intercompany cash flows did not meet qualifying criteria to receive hedge accounting and, as such, iGS appropriately recorded the net unrealized gain of $0.1 million as Other Income.



As of December 31, 2004, our principal swaps to hedge intercompany debt from
iGS to iGate have maturity dates that range from three to eighteen months. Contracts that meet qualifying criteria are accounted for as foreign currency cash flow hedges. Accordingly, the effective portion of gains and losses is deferred as a
component of other comprehensive loss and is recognized in earnings at the time the hedged item affects earnings. Any gains and losses due to hedge ineffectiveness or related to contracts which do not qualify for hedge accounting are recorded in
current period earnings in other income and expense. At December 31, 2004, the principal swaps to hedge intercompany debt did not meet qualifying criteria to receive hedge accounting and iGS appropriately recorded the net unrealized loss of $0.1
million as Other Income.



Substantially all of the
Companys foreign affiliates financial instruments are denominated in their respective functional currencies. Accordingly, exposure to exchange risk on foreign currency financial instruments is not material. (See Note 3 to the
consolidated financial statements.)



Interest Rate
Sensitivity



The Company is exposed to changes in interest
rates primarily as a result of its intercompany debt borrowing and investing activities used to maintain liquidity and fund business operations. The nature and amount of the Companys long-term and short-term debt can be expected to vary as a
result of future business requirements, market conditions and other factors. The Companys net intercompany debt obligation totaled $10.0 million at December 31, 2004. The Companys debt obligation is discussed in its Related Party
Transactions Note 18.



In order to manage interest rate
exposure, iGS utilizes interest rate swaps. These derivatives are primarily accounted for as fair value hedges. Accordingly, changes in the fair value of these derivatives, along with changes in the fair value of the hedged debt obligations that are
attributable to the hedged risk, are recognized as Interest Expense.



Effect of Hypothetical 10% Fluctuation In Market Prices



Our primary net foreign currency exposure includes the Indian Rupee (INR). The fair value of foreign exchange contracts is subject to changes in foreign currency exchange rates.



As of December 31, 2004, the potential gain or loss in the fair value of the
Companys outstanding foreign currency contracts and interest rate contracts assuming a hypothetical 10% fluctuation in currency rates and swap rates, respectively, would be approximately:



|                             |  |                       |    
|---------------------------- |  | --------------------- | ---
|                             |  | Fair Value Effect    
|                             |  | (Dollars in millions)
|Foreign currency contracts   |  | $                     | 0.3
|Interest rate swap contracts |  | $                     | 0.1



However, it should be
noted that any change in the fair value of the contracts, real or hypothetical, would be significantly offset by an inverse change in the value of the underlying hedged items. In relation to currency contracts, this hypothetical calculation assumes
that each exchange rate would change in the same direction relative to the USD.



Inflation



We do not believe that inflation
had a significant impact on our results of operations for the periods presented. On an ongoing basis, we attempt to minimize any effects of inflation on our operating results by controlling operating costs and whenever possible, seeking to insure
that billing rates reflect increases in costs due to inflation.

For all significant foreign operations, the functional currency is the local currency. Assets and
liabilities of these operations are translated at the exchange rate in effect at each period end. Statement of Operations accounts are translated at the average exchange rate prevailing during the year. Translation adjustments arising from the use
of differing exchange rates from period to period are included as a component of other comprehensive income (loss). Realized gains and losses from foreign currency transactions are included in net loss for the periods presented. Exchange rate
transaction gains (losses) did not have a significant impact on operations for the year ended December 31, 2004.



Seasonality



Our operations are generally not affected by seasonal fluctuations. However, our consultants billable hours are affected by national holidays and
vacation policies, which vary by country and by operating company.



Economic
Trends and Outlook



Recent reporting data that focused on
the Indian IT and BPO markets indicates that the IT industry is expected to post approximately 30% growth during 2005. The data also notes that medium-sized firms are increasing their own IT outsourcing in order to cut costs.



Worldwide spending on IT services grew by approximately 6.7% to $607.8
billion in 2004, which after factoring in the decline of the USD was estimated to be 2.2% in absolute dollar terms.



We are committed to the BPO market so evidenced by our construction of our Whitefield campus, and our 2003 acquisitions that focused on serving the BPO
market. We believe we have the necessary infrastructure in place to take advantage of our opportunities in the BPO market.



Recently Issued Accounting Standards



Share-based Payment



In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued FASB No. 123 (R), Share-based Payment.FASB No. 123 (R)
requires employers to value share-based payments using the fair value method, eliminating the option to use the intrinsic method to value such payments. FASB No. 123 (R) is effective for the third quarter of 2005. The Company is currently evaluating
the effect of the provisions of this statement on its Consolidated Financial Statements.



Variable Interest Entities



In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46 (FIN 46), Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities.FIN 46 requires unconsolidated variable interest entities to be consolidated by their primary beneficiaries if
the entities do not effectively disperse the risk and rewards of ownership among their owners and other parties involved. The provisions of FIN 46 are effective immediately to all variable entities created after January 1, 2003 and variable interest
entities in which an enterprise obtains an interest in after that date. For variable interest entities created before this date, the provisions are effective July 31, 2003. On October 8, 2003, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. 46-e, which
allows public entities, who meet certain criteria, to defer the effective date for applying the provisions of FIN No. 46 to interests held by the public entity in certain variable interest entities or potential variable interest entities until the
end of the first interim or annual period ending after December 15, 2003. On December 24, 2003, the FASB extended the effective date to periods ending after March 15, 2004. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on our
Consolidated Financial Statements.

Foreign Earnings Repatriation Provisions



The Financial Accounting Standards (FASB) issued FASB Staff
Position (FSP) No. 109-2, Application of FASB No. 109, Accounting and Disclosure Guidance for the Foreign Earnings Repatriation Provisions with the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 in December 2004. FSP 109-2 addresses the
appropriate point at which a company should reflect in its financial statements the effect of the one-time tax benefit on the repatriation of foreign earnings. We have decided not to repatriate earnings under the Act.



ITEM 7A.    QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK



Short-term investments are invested in highly liquid securities such as money market funds and certain corporate bonds with maturities of one year or
less, and marketable equity securities. These securities are generally classified as available for sale and consequently, are recorded on the balance sheet at fair value with unrealized gains or losses reported as a separate component of accumulated
other comprehensive income (loss), net of tax. Part of this portfolio includes minority equity investments in several publicly traded companies, the values of which are subject to market price volatility. We have also invested in one privately held
company (Air2Web), which can still be considered in the startup or development stage. This type of investment has an inherent risk as the market for the technologies or products they have under development are typically in the early stages and may
never materialize. We could lose our entire remaining investment in this company.



The following analysis presents the hypothetical changes in fair values of public equity investments that are sensitive to changes in the stock market (in millions):



|                   |  |                                                               |     |                                   |   |                                                              |  |   |     |  |     |     |     |   |     |  |   |     |  |   |

|Corporate equities |  | $                                                             | 0.1 |                                   | $ | 0.2                                                          |  | $ | 0.3 |  | $   | 0.5 |     | $ | 0.6 |  | $ | 0.7 |  | $ | 0.8
|                   |  |                                                               |     |                                   |   |                                                              |  |   |     |  |     |     |     |   |     |  |   |     |  |   |    



These equity
securities are held for purposes other than trading. The model technique used measures the hypothetical change in fair values arising from selected hypothetical changes in each stocks price. Stock price fluctuations of plus or minus 25%, 50%,
and 75% were selected based on the probability of their occurrence.



The Companys cash flow and earnings are subject to fluctuations due to exchange rate variation. Foreign currency risk exists by nature of the Companys global operations. The Company sells its services in a number of locations
around the world, and hence foreign currency risk is diversified.



When appropriate, the Company may attempt to limit its exposure to changing foreign exchange rates through both operational and financial market actions. These actions may include entering into forward contracts to hedge existing exposures.
The instrument is used to reduce risk by essentially creating offsetting currency exposure.



Substantially all of the Companys foreign affiliates financial instruments are denominated in their respective functional currencies. Accordingly, exposure to exchange risk on foreign currency financial
instruments is not material.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM



To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of iGate Corporation:



We were engaged to perform an integrated audit of iGate Corporations 2004 consolidated financial statements and of its internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2004 in accordance with the
standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). We have audited the Companys 2004, 2003 and 2002 consolidated financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board
(United States). Our opinion on the consolidated financial statements, based on our audits of those consolidated financial statements, is presented below. However, as explained more fully below, the scope of our work was not sufficient to enable us
to express, and we do not express, an opinion on the effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2004.



Consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedule



In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements listed in the index appearing under Item 15 (a)(1) present fairly, in
all material respects, the financial position of iGate Corporation and its subsidiaries at December 31, 2004 and 2003, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2004 in
conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. In addition, in our opinion, the financial statement schedule listed in the index appearing under Item 15(a)(2) presents fairly, in all material respects, the
information set forth therein when read in conjunction with the related consolidated financial statements. These financial statements and financial statement schedule are the responsibility of the Companys management. Our responsibility is to
express an opinion on these financial statements and financial statement schedule based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit of financial statements includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits
provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.



Internal
control over financial reporting



The Company has not
reported on its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, the scope of our work was not sufficient to enable us to express, and we do not express, an opinion on the effectiveness of the Companys
internal control over financial reporting.



A material weakness
is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. Although management has not
reported on its assessment of the effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2004, management has identified the following material weaknesses as of December 31, 2004.



Management has concluded that, as of December 31, 2004, the Company did not
maintain effective controls over the accounting for customer accounts receivable and the corresponding revenue, the Company had ineffective controls over the application and monitoring of cash payments received from customers and the issuance of
customer credit memos and discounts. This deficiency resulted in an audit adjustment to the fourth quarter 2004 consolidated financial statements. Additionally, this control deficiency could result in a misstatement to customer accounts receivable
that could result in a material misstatement to the annual or interim consolidated financial statements that would not be prevented or detected. Accordingly, management has concluded that this control deficiency constitutes a material weakness.



Also, management has concluded that, as of December 31, 2004,
the Company did not maintain effective controls over the calculation and review of deferred compensation and the corresponding compensation

expense. Specifically, the Companys controls did not identify a computational error in determining the amount of compensation expense to be recognized
from the cancellation of 2.1 million shares of restricted stock and the related cash payments made to the Quintant Inc. founders. This deficiency resulted in an audit adjustment to the fourth quarter 2004 consolidated financial statements.
Additionally, this deficiency could result in a misstatement to deferred compensation expense that would result in a material misstatement to the annual or interim consolidated financial statements that would not be prevented or detected.
Accordingly, management has concluded that this control deficiency constitutes a material weakness.



The existence of one or more material weaknesses as of December 31, 2004 would preclude a conclusion that the Companys internal control over
financial reporting was effective as of that date. These material weaknesses were considered in determining the nature, timing, and extent of audit tests applied in our audit of the 2004 consolidated financial statements, and our disclaimer of
opinion regarding the effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial reporting does not affect our opinion on those consolidated financial statements.

NOTES TO
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS



AS OF DECEMBER 31,
2004 AND 2003



1.    Summary of Significant Accounting Policies



(a) Nature of Business



iGate Corporation (the Company) is a worldwide provider of
information technology (IT) and Offshore Outsourcing services to large and medium-sized organizations.



(b) Principles of Consolidation



The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of the Company and its wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries. All material intercompany
transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. The Company accounts for investments in businesses in which it owns between 20% and 50% of equity or otherwise acquires management influence using the equity method as prescribed by
Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 18, The Equity Method of Accounting for Investments in Common Stock. Investments in which the Company acquires less than a 20% interest, or in which the Company does not acquire management influence,
are accounted for using the cost method of accounting or, if publicly traded, as available-for-sale securities.



(c) Uses of Estimates



The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to
make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.



(d) Reclassifications



Certain amounts in
previously issued financial statements were reclassified to conform to 2004 presentations. See Note 13 for further information.



(e) Cash and Cash Equivalents



Cash and cash equivalents are defined as cash and highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less when purchased. Cash equivalents are
stated at cost, which approximates market value.



(f)
Short-Term Investments



Short-term investments consist of
money market funds and corporate bonds and are stated at cost which approximates fair value.



(g) Accounts Receivable and Unbilled Receivables



The Company extends credit to clients based upon managements assessment of their creditworthiness. Substantially all of the Companys revenues (and the resulting accounts receivable) are from Fortune 500
companies, major systems integrators and governmental agencies.



Unbilled receivables represent amounts recognized as revenues for the periods presented based on services performed in accordance with the terms of client contracts that will be invoiced in subsequent periods.

Accounts receivables are reviewed periodically to determine the probability
of loss. The allowance for uncollectible accounts is determined using the combination of the specific identification method for balances deemed uncollectible, as well as judgments made by the Company based upon historical and expected charge-off
experience.



(i) Employee Advances



Employees can be advanced up to $2,500 at the discretion of the Company.
Normally, advances are based upon financial need at date of hire. Advances are deducted from the employees salary over a six-month period or until paid in full.



(j) Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates



The Company accounts for its investments in marketable equity securities in accordance with Statements of Financial Accounting Standards
(SFAS) No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities (SFAS 115). The Company has determined that certain of its investments in marketable equity securities are classified as
available-for-sale and recorded at fair value, utilizing the investments closing price at each reporting period. These investments are recorded on the balance sheet at market value, with the unrealized gains or losses, net of tax, reported as a
component of accumulated other comprehensive income in the Consolidated Statement of Shareholders Equity and Comprehensive Loss. The unrealized gain or loss is the difference between the Companys original cost for an investment and the
investments fair value at each reporting period. Realized gains or losses on securities sold are calculated using the specific identification method.



If management determines that an investment in available for sale securities has sustained an other-than-temporary decline in its value, the investment is
written down to its fair value, by a charge to earnings. Such evaluation is dependent on the specific facts and circumstances. Factors that are considered by the Company in determining whether an other-than-temporary decline in value has occurred
include: the market value of the security in relation to its cost basis; the financial condition of the investee; and the intent and ability to retain the investment for a sufficient period of time to allow for recovery in the market value of the
investment.



In evaluating these factors above, management
presumes a decline in value to be other-than-temporary if the market price of the security is 20% or more below the investments cost basis for a period of six months or more (the 20% criteria). However, the presumption of an
other-than-temporary decline in these instances may be overcome if there is persuasive evidence indicating that the decline is temporary in nature (e.g., strong operating performance of investee, historical volatility of investee, etc.).
Additionally, there may be instances where impairment losses are recognized even if the 20% criteria is not satisfied (e.g., plan to sell the security in the near term and the fair value is below the Companys cost basis). During 2003 and 2002,
the Company incurred impairment losses deemed to be other-than-temporary. These impairments are disclosed in Note 6. No such impairment losses were incurred in 2004.



For investments accounted for using the cost or equity method of accounting, management evaluates information (e.g.,
budgets, business plans, financial statements, etc.) in addition to quoted market price, if any, in determining whether an other-than-temporary decline in value exists. Factors indicative of an other-than-temporary decline include recurring
operating losses, credit defaults and subsequent rounds of financings at an amount below the cost basis of an investment. This list is not all inclusive and management weighs all quantitative factors in determining if an other-than-temporary decline
in value of an investment has occurred.

(k) Land, Building, Equipment and Leasehold Improvements



Property and equipment are stated at cost. The Company provides for
depreciation using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives. Upon disposal, assets and related accumulated depreciation are removed from the Companys accounts and the resulting gains and losses are reflected in loss from
operations in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Repairs and maintenance are charged to expense as incurred. Improvement and betterments that extend the useful life of an asset are capitalized.



The estimated useful lives of depreciable assets are as follows:



|                       |  |                                                                                
|---------------------- |  | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|Building               |  | 25 years                                                                       
|Equipment              |  | 35 years                                                                      
|Leasehold Improvements |  | Shorter of the life of the improvement or lease term ranging from 3 to 10 years



(l) Goodwill and
Intangible Assets



Goodwill is the excess of purchase
price over the value of the net assets acquired. Under SFAS 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets, goodwill and intangibles with indefinite useful lives are no longer amortized but will be subject to, at a minimum, an annual impairment
assessment of their carrying value. Under SFAS 142, goodwill impairment is deemed to exist if the net book value of a reporting unit exceeds its estimated fair value. Estimated fair values of reporting units underlying the segments were estimated
using either a discounted cash flow methodology, recent comparable transactions or a combination thereof. For further discussions, see Note 5.



The cost of other acquired intangibles is amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives.



The estimated useful lives of intangible assets are as follows:



|                                |  |          
|------------------------------- |  | ---------
|Intellectual property           |  | 35 years
|Customer relationships          |  | 36 years
|Beneficial employment contracts |  | 4 years  



The Company assesses
the carrying value of its long-lived assets, including land, building, equipment and leasehold improvement and amortizable intangible assets, whenever economic events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying values of the assets may
not be recoverable. Long-lived assets are considered to be impaired when the sum of the undiscounted expected future net operating cash flows is less than the carrying values of the related assets.



(m) Income Taxes



Deferred income taxes are provided for the temporary differences between the
financial reporting basis and the tax basis of the Companys assets and liabilities. The Company has evaluated its deferred tax asset and has recorded a valuation allowance where appropriate.

AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2004 AND 2003



Historically, the government of India has provided incentives, in the form of tax holidays, to
encourage foreign investment. Under the Indian Income Tax Act, 1961, the Companys Indian subsidiary is eligible to claim a tax holiday for 10 consecutive assessment years on profits derived from the export of software services from divisions
registered under the Software Technology Parks at Bangalore, Chennai and Pune. The benefits of the holiday will expire for certain of the units beginning in 2005.



The Company has not provided for U.S. deferred income taxes or foreign withholding tax on basis differences in its non-U.S.
subsidiaries of $5.8 million that result primarily from undistributed earnings the Company intends to reinvest indefinitely. Determination of the deferred income tax liability on these basis differences is not practicable because such liability, if
any, is dependent on circumstances existing if and when remittance occurs.



(n) Minority Interest



Minority interest represents the proportionate share of outside equity holders. At December 31, 2004 and 2003, the Company had outside equity holders for the following Companies:



|                                      |  |                             |   |  |      |

iGS is a publicly held
Company in India. All outside shareholders may vote.



(o)
Disclosures about Fair Value of Financial Instruments



The
following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instrument for which it is practicable to estimate that fair value:



Cash and short-term investmentsThe carrying amount approximates market value.



Accounts receivableThe carrying amount approximates market.



Revolving credit facilityThe carrying amount
approximates market value. The outstanding balance is reflected at its outstanding face value, excluding unpaid accrued interest at an interest rate at the lesser of the current LIBOR rate+1.25% or the Prime rate +0.25%, calculated on a per annum
basis.



Accounts payableThe carrying amount
approximates market.

(p) Derivatives Instruments and Hedging Activities



The Company uses derivative financial instruments for the purpose of hedging
currency, price, and interest rate exposures, which exist as part of ongoing business operations. The Company carries derivative instruments on the balance sheet at fair value, determined by reference to quoted market prices. Derivatives are
included in other assets and other liabilities based on the instruments fair value. The accounting for changes in the fair value of a derivative instrument depends on whether it has been designated and qualifies as part of hedging relationship
and, if so, the reason for holding it. The cash flows related to derivative instruments are classified in the consolidated statements of cash flows within operating activities as a component of other items, net.



The Company recorded $0.1 million in other income in 2004 and $0.1 million in
other expense in 2002 related to its foreign currency hedging transactions. The Company had no derivative gains or losses in 2003.



At December 31, 2002, the Company liquidated its only foreign exchange contract for $6.0 million Canadian dollars at rate of 1.5738 or U.S. $3.8 million.
As a result of the sale, the Company realized a loss of $0.1 million in 2002.



(q) Stock-Based Employee Compensation



The Company has stock-based employee compensation plans, which are described more fully in Note 11. SFAS No. 123, Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation, (SFAS 123) gives companies the option to
adopt the fair value method for expense recognition of employee stock options or to continue to account for employee stock options using the intrinsic value method, as outlined under Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 25, Accounting for
Stock Issued to Employees(APB 25). The Company has elected to continue to apply the intrinsic value method to account for employee stock options and discloses the pro forma effect as if the fair value method had been applied.
The following table illustrates the effect on net loss per share if the Company had applied the fair value recognition provisions of SFAS 123 to stock-based employee compensation:

(r) Currency
Translation Adjustment



For all significant foreign
operations, the functional currency is the local currency. Assets and liabilities of these operations are translated at the exchange rate in effect at each year-end. Statement of Operations accounts are translated at the average exchange rate
prevailing during the year. Translation adjustments arising from the use of differing exchange rates from period to period are included as a component of other comprehensive loss. Gain and losses from foreign currency transactions are included in
other (expense) income, net for the periods presented.



Foreign
exchange gains or losses on intercompany loans from the Company to its operating subsidiaries are recorded as a component of other income if payment is expected in the foreseeable future based upon mutually agreed upon payment terms.



(s) Revenue Recognition



The Company recognizes revenue on time-and-materials contracts as the
services are performed. Revenue is earned when the Company consultants are working on projects. Revenue recognition is negatively impacted by national holidays and consultant vacation and sick days. Revenues on fixed-price contracts are recognized
using the proportional performance method. Performance is determined by relating the actual cost of work performed to date to the estimated total cost for each contract and revenue is recognized based upon costs incurred by the Companys
consultants during the period. If the estimate indicates a loss on a particular fixed-price contract, a provision is made for the entire estimated loss without reference to the stage of completion. Changes in job performance, conditions and
estimated profitability may result in revisions to costs and revenues and are

AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2004 AND 2003



recognized in the period in which the changes are identified. Contracts with deliverables or project milestones recognize revenue as the deliverables or
project milestones are achieved. Contracts with deliverables or project milestones can provide for certain penalties if the deliverables or project milestones are not met within contract timelines. Certain maintenance type contracts with no stated
deliverables, with a designated workforce assigned, recognize revenues on a straight-line basis over the life of the contract, which are typically one year in duration. Revenue on these contracts is ratable and predetermined based upon the
negotiated contract.



In certain client situations, where the
nature of the engagement requires it, we utilize the services of other companies in our industry. If these services are provided under an arrangement whereby we agree to retain only a fixed portion of the amount billed to the client to cover our
management and administrative costs, we classify the amount billed to the client as subcontractor revenue. These revenues, however, are recorded on a gross versus net basis because we retain credit risk and are the primary obligor to our client. All
revenue derived from services provided by our employees or other independent contractors who work directly for us are recorded as direct revenue.



(t) Software Implementation Costs



The Company accounts for costs incurred for its own information systems upgrades in accordance with Statement of Position 98-1 (SOP 98-1)
Accounting for the Costs of Computer Software Developed or Obtained for Internal Use. SOP 98-1 requires that both internal and external costs incurred during the preliminary project stage should be charged to operations as
incurred. Such costs incurred during the application developement stage should be capitalized; training costs incurred in this stage should, however, be expensed. Costs of upgrades and enhancements should be capitalized (but only during the
application development stage) if it is probable that the expenditures will result in added functionality for the software. During the post-implementation/operation stage, training costs (both internal and external) and maintenance costs should be
charged to operations.



(u) Gains on Issuance of Stock by
Subsidiaries



At the time a subsidiary sells its stock to
unrelated parties at a price in excess of its book value, the Companys investment in that subsidiarys net assets increases. If at that time, the subsidiary is not a newly- formed, non-operating entity, nor a research and development,
start-up, or development-stage company, nor is there a question as to the subsidiarys ability to continue in existence, the Company records the increase as a gain in its Consolidated Statement of Operations.



(v) Acquisitions



The Companys acquisitions are accounted for using the purchase method.
The purchase price is allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their estimated fair market values. Any excess purchase price over the fair market value of the net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. For all
acquisitions, operating results are included in the Consolidated Statement of Loss since the dates of the acquisitions. See Note 12 for additional information.



(w) Discontinued Operations



The Company adopted SFAS No. 144, Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, (SFAS 144) effective January 1,
2002. This standard establishes accounting and reporting requirements for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets. The Company applied the provisions of SFAS 144 related to the sale of its Australian (Australia) and Direct
Resources International (DRI) subsidiaries in 2004.

AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2004 AND 2003



Managements plan to divest and the divestures both occurred within the same period for
reporting purposes. Australia and DRI were classified in the Consolidated Financial Statements as discontinued operations. The balance sheet amounts and statement results were reclassified to discontinued operations for both the Balance Sheet and
Statement of Operations presentation. The discontinued operations on the Statement of Operations were reported, net of applicable statutory taxes and net of gains on the sales of Australia and DRI. Additionally, segment information does not include
the results of businesses classified as discontinued operations. The Companys management does not expect any continuing involvement with these businesses following the sales.



(x) Net Loss per Share



The Company calculates net loss per share based on the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Because the Company was in a loss position,
it did not include any stock options outstanding whose exercise price were below the average market price or the effect of a convertible promissory note (Note 15) as their effect would be considered antidulitive.



(y) Recently Issued Accounting Standards



In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
(FASB) issued FASB No. 123 (R), Share-based Payment.FASB No. 123 (R) requires employers to value share-based payments using the fair value method, eliminating the option to use the intrinsic method to value such payments. FASB
No. 123 (R) is effective for the third quarter of 2005. The Company is currently evaluating the effect of the provision of this statement on its Consolidated Financial Statements.



In January 2003, the FASB issued Interpretation No. 46 (FIN 46), Consolidation of Variable Interest
Entities. FIN 46 requires unconsolidated variable interest entities to be consolidated by their primary beneficiaries if the entities do not effectively disperse the risk and rewards of ownership among their owners and other parties involved.
The provisions of FIN 46 are effective immediately to all variable entities created after January 1, 2003 and variable interest entities in which an enterprise obtains an interest in after that date. For variable interest entities created before
this date, the provisions are effective July 31, 2003. On October 8, 2003, the FASB issued FASB Staff Position No. 46-e, which allows public entities, who meet certain criteria, to defer the effective date for applying the provisions of FIN No. 46
to interests held by the public entity in certain variable interest entities or potential variable interest entities until the end of the first interim or annual period ending after December 15, 2003. On December 24, 2003, the FASB extended the
effective date to periods ending after March 15, 2004. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Companys Consolidated Financial Statements.



The Financial Accounting Standards (FASB) issued FASB Staff Position (FSP) No. 109-2, Application
of FASB No. 109, Accounting and Disclosure Guidance for the Foreign Earnings Repatriation Provisions with the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004 in December 2004. FSP 109-2 addresses the appropriate point at which a company should reflect in its
financial statements the effect of the one-time tax benefit on the repatriation of foreign earnings. We have decided not to repatriate earnings under the Act.



2.    Restricted Cash and Investments



The Company has short-term investments consisting of money market funds and corporate bonds that totaled $35.9 million and $39.6 million at December 31,
2004 and 2003, respectively. Approximately $10.9 million and $14.6 million of these funds at December 31, 2004 and 2003 are to be used exclusively by iGS due to Indian governmental restrictions.

The Company had compensating balances classified on the Consolidated Balance Sheet as short-term
investments which consisted of money market funds that totaled $25.0 million at December 31, 2004 and 2003. The restrictions related to the Credit Facility are discussed in Note 7. The compensating balance may be withdrawn, but the availability of
short-term lines of credit is dependent upon maintenance of such compensating balances.



3.    Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities



Summarized below are derivatives instruments consisting of foreign exchange contracts and a principal only SWAP agreement whose carrying values are not equal to their fair value at December 31, 2004. Fair values are
based on quoted market prices at prevailing exchange rates and other available market information.

Loss on Venture
Investments and Affiliated Companies



In 2002, the United
States economy had experienced a broad decline in the public equity markets, particularly in technology stocks, including investments held in the Companys investment portfolio. Similarly, the Company experienced a significant decline in value
of its privately held investment in Air2Web. As a result, the Company recorded noncash pretax charges to reduce the carrying value of its Speechworks investment by approximately $0.6 million and its Air2Web investment by approximately $6.8 million
in the fourth quarter of 2002. These investments experienced other-than-temporary declines using the criteria discussed in Note 1. In 2002, the Company sold its shares in Versata stock at a loss of $0.2 million.



In 2003, management evaluated its available-for-sale investment portfolio and
determined that no other-than-temporary decline existed under guidelines discussed in Note 1, and accordingly, no other-than-temporary losses were recorded. Management evaluated its investment in Air2Web and using guidelines previously discussed in
Note 1, recorded a $0.3 million charge to reduce the carrying value in Air2Web. In 2003, the Company sold the remaining investment it held in Red Hat, Inc., recognizing a gain of $0.3 million. No additional impairment charges against the
Companys investments in unconsolidated affiliates were recorded in 2004.

Equity in Losses of
Affiliated Companies



The Company incurred equity losses
of $0.3 million in 2004 and $0.1 million in 2003 related to CIBER and Software AG. In 2002, the Company did not incur any equity losses.



Gain on Deconsolidation of Subsidiary



On March 15, 2002, through the combination of a sale of new shares by itiliti to strategic investors and conversion of its bridge loan financing vehicle
to voting equity securities, the Companys ownership interest in itiliti was reduced from 90% to 49%. Subsequent to the transaction date, the Company accounted for its interest in itiliti under the equity method of accounting due to its lack of
a controlling interest in itiliti. In addition, the Company will have no future obligation to fund additional operating or financing requirements of itiliti. For the year ended December 31, 2002, the Company recorded a gain on deconsolidation of
$7.1 million.

AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2004 AND 2003



In 2003, the Company recorded $0.1 million in severance related costs associated with the offshore
outsourcing of certain of its back office finance and accounting functions at iGate Corporate. The 13 employees who were severed ranged from clerical to middle management. These costs were recognized in accordance with SFAS No. 146.



The following paragraphs discuss the Companys restructurings of its
business. All costs associated with restructurings occurring in 2002 and 2001 were accounted for in accordance with EITF 94-3, Liability Recognition for Costs to Exit an Activity.



During the fourth quarter of 2002, the Company incurred $4.2 million of costs associated with a restructuring of certain of
its business units as well as departments within the iGate corporate structure. The restructuring was due in part to iGSs agreed upon purchase of eJivas stock, to align the Companys business units to increase focus on global
offshore delivery and to consolidate the Companys back office operations. The back office consolidation of operations included legal, accounting, marketing and human resource departments. As part of the restructuring, the Company vacated all
non-essential properties and all remaining employees were relocated to a centralized location. As part of the restructuring, the Company eliminated 96 U.S. positions. These employees were executive level, back office support and administrative
positions that were no longer being utilized. These actions were necessary due to the streamlining of the Companys back office operations and due to redundancies of effort. Of the total costs incurred as part of the restructuring, non-cash
charges totaling $0.8 million were related to write-offs of leasehold improvements on abandoned leased property. In 2003, the Company adjusted its original estimate of restructuring reserves, recognizing additional costs of $0.5 million related
to rent expense due to the Companys inability to sub-lease its excess space.



In the third quarter of 2001, the continued economic downturn caused the Company to do an extensive review of its operations and certain overhead costs associated with each reportable segment. In August 2001, the
Company approved a restructuring plan (the plan). Based upon its revenue trends and the general economic environment, the Company decided to put a plan in place that would serve to cut excess costs in certain of the operating segments.
As part of this plan, the Company recorded severance costs in the amount of $1.0 million. The Company reduced employee headcount by 84. These employees ranged from executive level through administrative assistants, and affected the iGate Solutions,
iGate Professional Services and iGate Corporate segments. The Company also recorded a $2.4 million charge for a bonus for one of its key executives. The Company also performed an extensive fixed asset inventory in each reportable segment, in order
to identify any fixed assets, such as laptops and computer equipment that were deemed to be in excess due to the headcount reduction. Based upon the fixed asset inventory, the Company recorded write-downs of $2.1 million. These write-downs of excess
equipment were recorded in the iGate Solutions, iGate Professional Services and iGate Corporate segments. The Company also decided to exit its training function at the iGate Corporate level in favor of a more decentralized approach. Exit costs
associated with the training department were $0.8 million and consisted of education-related licensing agreements entered into that would no longer be utilized. In the iGate Professional Services segment, the Company recorded a charge of $1.3
million for lease costs associated with the closure of its office in San Francisco. The Companys total charge for the plan totaled $7.6 million. These steps were necessary due to declines in demand and overall headcount.



In December 2001, the Company severed 3 employees of its wholly owned
subsidiary Global Financial Services of Nevada, ranging from executive level to general and administrative support and incurred a charge of $0.2 million. In December 2001, Innovative Resource Group, Inc. (IRG), a majority-owned
subsidiary of the Company, merged with and into eJiva. As part of the merger, eJiva incurred $1.4 million of merger related exit costs associated with a leased space in Pittsburgh, PA. The merged eJiva entity relocated to IRG office space.

Goodwill Impairment



As discussed in Note 1 on January 1, 2002, the Company
adopted SFAS 142, which requires companies to cease amortizing goodwill and certain intangible assets with an indefinite useful life. Instead, SFAS 142 requires that goodwill and intangible assets deemed to have an indefinite useful life be reviewed
for impairment upon adoption of SFAS 142 and, at a minimum, annually thereafter.

AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2004 AND 2003



Under SFAS 142, goodwill impairment is deemed to exist if the net book value of a reporting unit
exceeds its estimated fair value. Other than the allocation of goodwill, which is discussed below, the net book value of each of the Companys segments was generally based upon its carrying value. The Companys reporting units are
generally consistent with the operating segments underlying the segments identified in Note 16. The Company performed a transitional impairment review during the first quarter of 2002, and concluded that no impairment was necessary.



During the fourth quarter of 2003, the Company reviewed its indefinite lived
goodwill for impairment, using a discounted cash model to determine the market value of certain reporting units with assigned goodwill. Based upon the review, the Company was required to record impairment charges of $3.9 million related to its
discontinued Australian operations.



During the fourth quarter
of 2002, the Companys majority owned Indian subsidiary, iGS agreed to purchase its sister company, eJiva. The purchase consideration was $9.5 million. As part of Indian regulatory requirements, iGS was required to engage a third party to
perform an independent valuation of eJiva in order to determine the purchase price consideration. The results of the valuation indicated that eJivas fair value was less than its carrying value. Due to this circumstance and in light of the
continued economic downturn, the Company assessed its intangible assets for impairment in each one of its reporting units. As a result of the assessment of its reporting units, the Company recorded a noncash charge of approximately $29.7 million to
reduce the carrying value of its goodwill. Goodwill was reduced by $24.3 million in the iGate Solutions segment and $1.7 million in the iGate Professional Services segment. An impairment charge of $26.0 million was recorded as a separate line item
in the Companys 2002 Consolidated Statements of Operations. Impairment charges in the amount of $3.7 million related to the Companys Australian operations is included as part of discontinued operations. The charge reflects overall
market declines during 2002 in each of its operating segments.



7.    Credit Facilities



On
September 16, 2004, the Company renewed its secured credit facility (Renewed Facility) with PNC Bank N.A. (PNC). The Renewed Facility provides a maximum loan amount of $25.0 million and is secured entirely by the
Companys cash and cash equivalents. The provisions of the Renewed Facility requires the Company to maintain unrestricted cash and cash equivalents of at least $30.0 million and maintain tangible net worth of at least $88.0 million. The Company
had one letter of credit outstanding in the amount of $0.3 million on the Renewed Facility as of December 31, 2004 and 2003, respectively. The Company did not file its Form 10-K by March 31, 2005. As a result, the Company violated an Affirmative
Covenant under the Renewed Facility that requires the Company to deliver audited financial statements to PNC. PNC has waived the default provision.

approximately $6.1 million, $4.9 million and $4.9 million for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively.



Other Commitments



As discussed in Note 6, the Company negotiated a severance bonus for a key executive in connection with a restructuring plan in 2001. At December 31,
2001, the Company recorded a liability in the amount of $2.4 million, which was the present value of the future obligation under the agreement. The interest rate used to discount the liability was 5.75%. The Company paid the executive $1.0 million
and $0.4 million, in 2004 and 2003, respectively, as part of the agreement. The Company will ultimately pay the executive $4.0 million through the expiration of the agreement on October 1, 2006.



In October 2003, the Company paid its entire $9.3 million obligation under a
put option related to the Companys December 2001 eJiva merger. The payments were made to the three existing co-founders of IRG, which had previously been acquired by eJiva.



9.    Contingencies



The Company settled its lawsuit with Convergys Information Management Group Inc. (Convergys) and Chubb Custom Insurance Group in May 2004.
Under the Settlement, the Company agreed to pay a total of $0.4 million to Convergys to settle and dismiss any and all claims. The actual out-of pocket cost to the Company was $0.1 million as all other amounts including attorneys fees were
reimbursed by our insurance carriers.



The Company is currently
involved in a lawsuit in Australia with Cytel Pty. Ltd. (Cytel). Cytel is alleging certain consultants that were provided to Cytel were unqualified and incompetent. As a result, Cytels business reputation with their customer was
damaged and they failed to receive further projects from this customer. Cytel is seeking $3.8 million in damages. The Company has vehemently denied the accusations and considers the claim completely frivolous and merely an attempt to avoid paying
the Company less than $0.1 million for services previous rendered. The Company believes that the claim is covered by its insurance policies, and out-of pocket costs to the Company will be limited to its deductible, which is less than $0.1 million.

Modified Quintant Transaction Structure



On August 10, 2004, the Company modified the terms of the acquisition agreement dated as of August 21, 2003 relating to its acquisition of Quintant Inc.
(Initial Quintant Transaction Structure), and entered into a new agreement with the founders and principal shareholders of Quintant (Modified Quintant Transaction Structure).



In conjunction with the Modified Quintant Transaction Structure, the Company
was required to accelerate its recognition of unearned compensation expense in the amount of $5.1 million, which consisted of $3.1 million related to the cancellation of 2.1 million shares of Company restricted stock and $2.0 million related to the
cancellation of $0.00 exercise price stock options. In addition, the Company recognized $0.5 million of compensation expense related to iGS shares purchased at a discount by the Quintant Co-Founders. At December 31, 2004, the Company had $1.7
million of deferred compensation to be recognized over future periods. These costs were recorded as part of the iGate Solutions segments.



On August 25, 2004, the Company issued 455,924 common shares to two key employees of Quintant and cancelled 103,222 of stock options issued on August 21,
2003, at $0.00 exercise price. The closing price of the Companys Common Stock at the date of issuance was $2.92. The Company recorded compensation expense in the amount of $1.3 million related to the issuance of shares and $0.3 million related
to the canceling of stock options. These costs were recorded as part of iGate Solutions segment.



Deferred compensation in the amount of $10.5 million was recorded in conjunction with the August 21, 2003 acquisition of Quintant, which is more fully
described in Note 12. The deferred compensation included 2.1 million shares of iGate restricted stock, 0.6 million iGate options granted at a $0.00 exercise price, 0.1 million iGate options granted at a $3.78 exercise price, and 0.8 million of iGS
options granted at a discount from market value to continuing Quintant employees. As noted above, portions of the deferred compensation were accelerated and recognized in 2004.



The iGate restricted stock, which was granted to key employees of Quintant, was valued based upon the closing price of the
Companys stock at August 20, 2003, which was $4.89 per share. Deferred compensation was being recognized over a weighted average vest period of four years. Deferred compensation not including accelerated compensation expense recognized for the
years ended December 31, 2004 and 2003 was approximately $0.9 million and $0.9 million, respectively, for the restricted stock.

AS OF DECEMBER 31, 2004 AND 2003



All options issued at $0.00 exercise price and $3.78 exercise price were valued based upon the
closing price of the Company stock at the date of grant. Deferred compensation was being recognized ratably over a four year vesting period. Deferred compensation not including accelerated compensation expense recognized for the year ended December
31, 2004 and 2003 was approximately $0.6 million and $0.4 million, respectively, for these options.



On August 20, 2003, 0.3 million iGS options were issued at a $2.18 exercise price with a market value of $5.11 per share on the same date. On August 22,

Other Stock Transactions



On October 1, 2004, the Company awarded 0.1 million shares of restricted Company Common Stock to a key executive as part of his employment agreement.
These shares vest ratably over a two year period with a compensation charge equal to the fair value of the shares awarded at date of grant. Had compensation costs for these shares been determined consistent with SFAS 123, net loss and loss per share
for the year ended December 31,2004 would have increased by approximately $0.3 million or less than $0.01 per share. Deferred compensation recognized for these shares for the year ended December 31, 2004, was less than $0.1 million.



On April 1, 2001, Michael J. Zugay, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial
Officer, was awarded 0.15 million shares of restricted iGate Common Stock as part of his employment agreement. These shares vest ratably over a three year period with a compensation charge equal to the fair value of the shares awarded at date of
grant. Had compensation costs for these shares been determined consistent with SFAS 123, net loss and diluted loss per share for the year ended December 31, 2001 would have increased by approximately $0.2 million or less than $0.01 per share.
Deferred compensation recognized for these shares for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002 were $0.0 million, $0.1 million and $0.1 million, respectively.

12. Acquisitions



The following paragraphs describe each of the acquisitions made by the
Company during 2004 and 2003. There were no acquisitions in 2002. Descriptions regarding each acquisition will vary dependent upon the complexity of the transaction and materiality and are presented in chronological order. Unless otherwise noted,
pro forma disclosure regarding these purchases have not been provided because they are not material to the operations of the Company.



The Company has calculated each purchase price allocation in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141, Business
Combinations. All purchase price allocations have been finalized at December 31, 2004. All amortizable intangible assets acquired consist of intellectual property, beneficial employment contracts and customer relationships. Please refer to Note
5 for information pertaining to amortization expense.



In the
fourth quarter of 2004, the Company acquired the remaining 10% of ICRI it did not own from the University of Pittsburgh Cancer Institute Cancer Services (UPCI). Pursuant to the transaction, ICRI transferred certain clinical research
related study agreements to UPCI for the remaining 10% ownership, whose value was immaterial.



On August 10, 2004, the Company modified the terms of the acquisition agreement dated as of August 21, 2003 relating to its acquisition of Quintant Inc. (Initial Quintant Transaction Structure), and
entered into a new

agreement with the founders and principal shareholders of Quintant (Modified Quintant Transaction Structure). The principal reasons that the
Quintant acquisition structure was modified were (a) to have the Quintant co-founders more closely aligned to the stock value of iGS, rather than the Companys common stock, and (b) to simplify the ownership structure of Quintant whereby
Quintant will be owned 100% by iGS, rather than the original ownership structure where Quintant was jointly owned by iGS and iGate.



Under the terms of the Modified Quintant Transaction Structure, the Company was required to accelerate compensation expense, which is more fully discussed
in Note 11, and to pay the Quintant Co-Founders an additional $3.9 million in cash consisting of $3.2 million paid to Quintants Indian Co-Founder and $0.7 million paid in aggregate to the four Quintant Co-Founders. The costs associated with
the Modified Quintant Transaction Structure did not affect the Companys original purchase price allocation, which is discussed below.



All costs incurred as part of the Modified Quintant Transaction Structure were recorded as compensation expense in the period incurred and are included in
the Companys Consolidated Statements of Income as part of iGate Solutions segment.



In July 2004, iGS acquired the remaining 8% it did not own in Saint Life Pharmaceutical Research Laboratories Private Limited (Saint Life) for approximately $0.2 million.



On June 1, 2004, the Companys majority-owned subsidiary Symphoni
Interactive LLC was sold to iGS for proceeds of $0.5 million.



In May 2004, the Companys sold the assets of its majority-owned subsidiary Red Brigade UK Ltd. to iGS for proceeds of $0.3 million.



In May 2004, iGS acquired an additional 5% of stock ownership in The Concours Group (Concours) for approximately $1.25 million, increasing its
ownership to approximately 10%.



In February 2004, iGS acquired
92% of Saint Life for approximately $0.5 million. iGS acquired Saint Life primarily for the land that it owns that is adjacent to the iGS Whitefield Campus in Bangalore, India.



On October 20, 2003, iGS acquired the assets of IdeaSpace Solutions Ltd. (IdeaSpace) through its wholly owned
subsidiary IT&T Technologies Services, Ltd. for approximately $1.5 million. IdeaSpace specializes in bank technology and operations. The purchase price allocation resulted in non-deductible goodwill of $0.3 million, which was assigned to the
iGate Solutions segment, and $1.1 million of intangible assets with a weighted average useful life of 2.4 years. The acquisition was effective December 10, 2003.



In September 2003, iGate Inc. acquired a 95% interest in DiagnoSearch for $1.5 million. DiagnoSearch is an Indian based
clinical research company. The purchase price allocation resulted in non-deductible goodwill of $0.5 million, which was assigned to the iGate Corporate segment, and $0.9 million of intangible assets with a weighted average useful life of 1.2 years.

interest in the entity. There were no intangibles recorded as a result of the acquisition.

Under the Indian Income Tax Act, 1961, the Companys Indian subsidiary is eligible to claim a
tax holiday for 10 consecutive assessment years on profits derived from the export of software services from divisions registered under the Software Technology Parks at Bangalore, Chennai and Pune. For the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003
and 2002, the tax holiday resulted in benefits of $0.3 million, $1.3 million and $2.6 million, respectively, when calculated at the statutory US rate. The benefits of the holiday will expire for certain of the units beginning in 2005.



The components of the deferred tax assets and liabilities were

The number of
outstanding options to purchase common shares for which the option exercise prices exceeded the average market price of the common shares aggregated 1.3 million, 1.5 million and 2.0 million shares for the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and
2002, respectively. These options were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share under the treasury stock method.



In addition, the calculation of diluted earnings per share for 2004, 2003 and 2002, respectively, would have included 0.4 million, 0.4 million and 0.3
million shares for assumed exercise of options under the Companys share incentive plans, and 0.5 million shares during 2002 for the vested portion of the G.E. Note. However, because the Company was in a net loss position inclusion of such
shares would have been anti-dilutive.



16.    Segment
Reporting



The Companys reportable segments are
iGate Solutions, iGate Professional Services and iGate Corporate. No operating segments have been aggregated. Effective April 1, 2004, we recast our segments to include the operations of Global Financial Services (GFS) as part of the
iGate Professional Services (IPS ) segment. Previously, GFS was included in the iGate Solutions segment. All prior periods have been reclassified to reflect the change to our segment reporting. The following discussion also compares our
operating segments without the operations of iGate Australia Pty Ltd. and Direct Resources Ltd., which are being treated as discontinued operations. Prior to their sale in 2004 both entities were part of our IPS operating segment.



iGate Solutions



The iGate Solutions segments services offerings include offshore
outsourcing of IT services and IT systems maintenance. Other offerings include enterprise applications implementation and related custom development of applications such as Oracle, SAP and PeopleSoft. The Segment also offers application maintenance
outsourcing, business intelligence services and data management and application re-engineering through its offshore development centers (ODCs).

iGate Corporate



In 2004 and 2003, iGate Corporate includes the operations of jobcurry Systems Private Ltd., ICRI acquired on February 26, 2003 and DiagnoSearch acquired
October 28, 2003 and corporate and other unallocated costs. In 2002, iGate Corporate included itiliti, which was deconsolidated in March 2002, and MobileHelix, which ceased operations in February 2002.



The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in
the summary of significant accounting policies in Note 1. We evaluate segment performance based upon profit or loss from operations. We do not allocate income taxes, other income or expense and non-recurring charges to segments. In addition, we
account for inter-segment sales and transfers at current market prices. All inter-segment sales have been eliminated in consolidation, which are not material.



The following tables present selected financial information for the Companys reporting segments, as reclassified for discontinued operations, for
the years ended December 31, 2004, 2003 and 2002:

|(1) |  | Corporate activities include general corporate expenses, interest income and expense, equity in losses of unconsolidated affiliates, minority interest, loss from joint ventures and
restructuring charges not identified to a specific segment, and other unallocated charges. The Company evaluates segments based on income (loss) from operations. Since certain administrative and other operating expenses or income sources have not
been allocated to the operating business segments, this basis is not necessarily a measure computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and it may not be comparable to other companies.

opinion of management, contains all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, if necessary, for a fair presentation thereof. Earnings per share amounts for each quarter are required to be computed independently, and therefore may
not equal the amount computed for the entire year.

ITEM 9.    CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACCOUNTING AND

FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE



ITEM 9A.    CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES



Disclosure Controls and Procedures



The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that the
Company files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SECs rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to the
Companys management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.



As of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with
the participation of Company management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to the Securities Exchange Act of
1934 (Exchange Act) Rules 13a-15(b) and 15d-15(b). Based upon, and as of the date of this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Companys disclosure controls and procedures were
not effective because of the material weaknesses discussed below. Due to these material weaknesses, the Company performed additional analysis and other post-closing procedures to ensure that the consolidated financial statements were prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, management believes that the financial statements included in this report fairly present in all material respects the Companys financial position, results of operations and
cash flows for the periods presented.



Status of
Managements Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting



Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. The Companys internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to
provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Because of its inherent limitations,
internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become ineffective because of changes in conditions
or that the degree of compliance with established policies or procedures may deteriorate.



Management is in the process of conducting an evaluation of the Companys internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2004. In making its assessment of internal control over financial reporting,
management is using the criteria described inInternal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.



A material weakness is a control deficiency, or combination of control deficiencies, that results in more than a remote
likelihood that a material misstatement of the annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected. Management has not yet completed its assessment of the effectiveness of the Companys internal control over financial
reporting. However, to date, management has identified certain control deficiencies which represent material weaknesses:



As of December 31, 2004, the Company did not maintain effective controls over the accounting for customer accounts receivable and the corresponding
revenue. Specifically, the Company had ineffective controls over the application and monitoring of cash payments received from customers and the issuance of customer credit memos and discounts. This deficiency resulted in an audit adjustment to the
fourth quarter 2004 consolidated financial statements. Additionally, this control deficiency could result in a misstatement to customer

accounts receivable and the corresponding revenue that could result in a material misstatement to the annual or interim consolidated financial statements
that would not be prevented or detected. Accordingly, management has concluded that this control deficiency constitutes a material weakness; and



As of December 31, 2004, the Company did not maintain effective controls over the calculation and review of deferred compensation and the related
compensation expense. Specifically, the Companys controls did not identify a computational error in determining the amount of compensation expense to be recognized from the cancellation of 2.1 million shares of restricted stock and the related
cash payments made to the Quintant Inc. co-founders. This deficiency resulted in an audit adjustment to the fourth quarter 2004 consolidated financial statements. Additionally, this deficiency could result in a misstatement to deferred compensation
expense that would result in a material misstatement to the annual or interim consolidated financial statements that would not be prevented or detected. Accordingly, management has concluded that this control deficiency constitutes a material
weakness.



The existence of one or more material weaknesses at
December 31, 2004 would preclude management from concluding that the Companys internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2004. Upon completion of our assessment, management expects to conclude that as of
December 31, 2004, the Company did not maintain effective internal control over financing reporting.



The Companys evaluation of its internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2004 is not complete. In connection with our ongoing
evaluation, we may identify additional control deficiencies and once we have completed our evaluation of all deficiencies we may determine that the deficiencies, either alone or in combination with others, constitute one or more additional
weaknesses.



We intend to file an amendment to this Form 10-K
to include (i) the report of management on internal control over financial reporting and the associated report of our independent registered public accounting firm as required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and (ii) revised certifications
as required by Section 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and Rule 13a-14(a) and Rule 15d-14(a) of the Securities Exchange Act, once we have completed our assessment of internal control over financial reporting.



Managements Remediation Efforts



The material weaknesses described above resulted in audit adjustments to the
fourth quarter 2004 consolidated financial statements of approximately $800,000 and $1,300,000, respectively. To address these material weaknesses, the Company performed additional analysis and other post-closing procedures to ensure that the
consolidated financial statements were prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Accordingly, management believes that the financial statements included in this report fairly present in all material respects the
Companys financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented.



Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting



There has been no change in iGates internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the fourth quarter that has materially affected,
or is reasonably likely to materially affect, such internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2004.
