CIBER Temporarily Increases Line of Credit to $75 Million
To Support Offer For Remaining Novasoft Shares

Greenwood Village, Colorado—October 7, 2004—CIBER, Inc. (NYSE: CBR) announced today it has amended its Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. credit facility, to temporarily increase the revolving line of credit from $50 million to $75 million. On September 10, 2004, CIBER acquired 67 percent of the net outstanding shares of Novasoft AG (FSE: NOVG.DE). The line of credit increase is in anticipation of CIBER's compulsory cash offer for the remaining Novasoft AG shares owned by public shareholders. The line of credit will automatically reduce to $60 million on March 31, 2005 and reduce again to $50 million on September 30, 2005.

        "Once again, Wells Fargo has helped support CIBER's acquisition strategy by increasing our line of credit," said David Durham, CIBER's Chief Financial Officer. "The temporary nature of the increase and the return back to the prior $50 million level within one year is consistent with our stated goals for 2005 of using operating cash flow to reduce debt and re-purchase our shares."
