5. Closing

5.1 Time for Closing

Closing will take place at the offices of Clayton Utz, Solicitors at Level 34, 1 O’Connell Street, Sydney at l lam on the later of

(a) 1 June 2004; and

(b) the date which is the same day as the condition precedent in clause 2A is satisfied or waived in accordance with clause 2A, or such other day as the Seller and the Buyer agree.

5.2 Seller’s obligations

At Closing, the Seller must give to the Buyer:

(a) share certificates: the share certificate(s) for the Sale Shares;

(b) transfer: a completed transfer of the Sale Shares to the Buyer as transferee, in registrable form (other than the impression of Duty) and signed by the Seller as transferor;

(c) certificate of registration and common seal: the certificates of registration or incorporation and any common seals of the Sale Group Companies;

(d) corporate records: complete and up to date copies of all corporate records and registers (including statutory registers, minutes of meetings of directors and members and other record books), financial records (including asset registers, management accounts, budgets, ledgers, journals and books of account) and all other records, documents and other business papers of any kind of each of the Sale Group Companies;

(e) resignations: written resignations of all directors, secretaries and public officers of each of the Sale Group Companies;

-14-

provided that the documents and other items referred to in clauses 5.2(c), (d), (f) and (g) may be given to the Buyer either by delivering the documents and other items to the Buyer or by leaving the documents and other items in a safe and appropriate place at the Premises.

5.3 Subscription Shares and Debt Repayment and Trade Debts Receivables

(a) Immediately prior to Closing on the Closing Date the Seller will procure the occurrence of the events referred to in clause 3.3 of the Share Subscription and Debt Repayment Agreement such that as at Closing:

(i) the Seller will be the holder of the Subscription Shares; and

(ii) the Sale Company will cease to owe any amounts to the Seller (or any Related Body Corporate of the Seller).

(b) In the period between the Signing Date and the Closing Date the Seller will procure that the Sale Company does not repay any of the Intercompany Debt except:

(i) in accordance with the Share Subscription and Debt Repayment Agreement; and

(ii) reimbursements under clause 8.6.

(c)

(i) On Closing the Seller will cause the Sale Company to forgive the Trade Debts Receivables as at the day immediately prior to the Closing Date and the Buyer promises that it will procure that the Sale Company makes no claims after Closing for payment of the same.

(ii) Nothing in clause 5.3(c)(i), however, shall apply to any Trade Debts Receivables coming into existence after Closing as to which the Seller will cause the same to be paid within 30 days after receipt by iGate Global Solutions Ltd of periodic invoices from the Sale Company.

(iii) For the avoidance of all doubt the Trade Debts Receivables as at 31 March 2004 are excluded from the Balance Sheet and the Trade Debts Receivables as at the balance date of the Closing Accounts will be excluded from the Closing Accounts. However, if any Trade Debts Receivables are actually paid up to the balance date of either the Balance Sheet or the Closing Accounts then the cash proceeds will be reflected in cash in the Balance Sheet or the Closing Accounts as the case may be. For example, if there is a Trade Debt Receivable of $1000 as at 31 March 2004 which is paid in April 2004 then the Closing Accounts will include that $1000 amount in cash. That by itself will result in the Purchase Price being $1000 higher than otherwise but on the other hand the Sale Company will actually have the cash and the $1000 will not be required to be forgiven under clause 5.3(c)(i) (and correspondingly iGate Global Solutions Ltd will have paid out the cash).

-15-

(d) Any amounts owing by iGate Global Solutions Ltd to the Sale Company in respect of:

(i) infrastructure facilities and administration charges invoiced by the Sale Company and iGate Global Solutions; and

(ii) Staffing Business debt invoiced by the Sale Company to iGate Global Solutions Ltd in its capacity as a customer of the Sale Company,

A. are, if owing as at 31 March 2004, included in the Balance Sheet;

B. will, if owing as at the balance date of the Closing Accounts, be included in the Closing Accounts;

C. will, if owing as at the Closing Date, be paid by iGate Global Solutions Ltd to the Sale Company within 30 days after invoice (and the Seller will procure that such payment is made).

5.4 Board Meetings

At or by Closing the Seller must have procured the holding of meetings of the directors of each of the Sale Group Companies at which it is resolved (subject to Closing) to:

(a) approve registration: in the case of the Sale Company approve registration of the Buyer as the holder of the Sale Shares, subject to payment of any Duty on the transfer of the Sale Shares;

(b) new share certificate: in the case of the Sale Company issue a new share certificate in respect of the Sale Shares in the name of the Buyer;

(c) change officers: accept the resignations of the officers of the Sale Group Company concerned referred to in clause 5.2(e) with effect from the conclusion of the meeting and appoint their replacements, being the persons nominated for that purpose by the Buyer not less than 2 Business Days prior to the Closing Date and having consented in writing to their appointments if required under applicable law; and

If the Buyer fails to satisfy those obligations on the date specified in the notice, the Seller may, without affecting or limiting any other rights the Seller might have:

(a) terminate this document; or

(b) seek specific performance of this document, failing which the Seller may elect to terminate this document and after any such termination the Seller will be entitled to either sue the Buyer for breach of contract, or resell the Sale Shares as owner and the deficiency (if any) arising on such resale and all expenses of and incidental to such resale or attempted resale and Buyer’s default will, be recoverable by the Seller from the Buyer as liquidated damages, provided that proceedings for the recovery of the deficiency are commenced within 12 months of the termination of this document; and

(c) retain any money paid by the Buyer on account of the Purchase Price as security for any deficiency arising on a resale or for any damages or compensation awarded to the Seller for the Buyer’s default, provided that proceedings for recovery of such damages or compensation are commenced within 12 months of the termination of this document.

5.7 Interdependence

(a) Closing is conditional on both the Buyer and the Seller complying with all of their obligations under this clause 5, and accordingly the requirements of this clause 5 are interdependent and must be carried out contemporaneously. No delivery or payment or other event referred to in this clause 5 will be deemed to have been made or occurred until all such deliveries and payments have been made and events occurred.

(b) If the Seller or the Buyer fails to fully comply with its obligations under this clause 5 and Closing does not happen, then:

(i) the Buyer must return to the Seller all documents delivered to the Buyer, and the Seller must return to the Buyer all documents delivered to the Seller, under this clause 5; and
