On January 31, 2011, ITG Inc., as borrower, and Investment Technology Group, Inc. ("Parent Company"), as guarantor, entered into a $150 million three-year revolving credit agreement ("Credit Agreement") with a syndicate of banks and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent. The purpose of this credit line is to provide liquidity for ITG Inc.'s brokerage operations to satisfy clearing margin requirements and to finance temporary positions from delivery failures or non-standard settlements. The Credit Agreement includes an accordion feature that allows for potential expansion of the facility up to $250 million. Under the Credit Agreement, interest accrues at a rate equal to (a) a base rate, determined by reference to the higher of the (1) federal funds rate or (2) the one month Eurodollar London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) rate, plus (b) a margin of 2.50%. Available but unborrowed amounts under the Credit Agreement are subject to an unused commitment fee of 0.50%. As a result, the Company has additional flexibility with its existing cash and future cash flows from operations to strategically invest in growth initiatives and to return profits to stockholders. Depending on the borrowing base, availability under the Credit Agreement is limited to either (i) a percentage of the clearing deposit required by the National Securities Clearing Corporation, or (ii) a percentage of the market value of temporary positions pledged as collateral. Among other restrictions, the terms of the Credit Agreement include negative covenants related to (a) liens, (b) maintenance of a consolidated leverage ratio (as defined) and a liquidity ratio (as defined), as well as maintenance of minimum levels of tangible net worth (as defined) and regulatory capital (as defined), and (c) restrictions on investments, dispositions and other restrictions customary for financings of this type.

The events of default under the Credit Agreement include, among others, payment defaults, cross defaults with certain other indebtedness, breaches of covenants, loss of collateral, judgments, changes in control and bankruptcy events. In the event of a default, the Credit Agreement requires ITG Inc. to pay incremental interest at the rate of 2.0% and, depending on the nature of the default, the commitments will either automatically terminate and all unpaid amounts immediately become due and payable, or the lenders may in their discretion terminate their commitments and declare due all unpaid amounts outstanding.

At December 31, 2011 there were no amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement.

The four year term loan established under this agreement ("Term Loan") is secured by a security interest in existing furniture, fixtures and equipment owned by the Parent Company and certain U.S. subsidiaries as of June 1, 2011.

Along with the Term Loan Agreement, Parent Company entered into a $5.0 million master lease facility with Bank of America ("Master Lease Agreement"), under which purchases of new equipment may be financed. Each equipment lease under the Master Lease Agreement is structured as a capital lease and has a separate 48-month term from its inception date, at the end of which Parent Company may purchase the underlying equipment for $1. Each lease under the Master Lease Agreement requires principal repayment on a monthly schedule and accrues interest at the same rate prescribed for the Term Loan.

In September 2011, $2.6 million was drawn on the lease facility to finance purchased assets that had a fair value of $2.4 million on the date of financing, resulting in the recording of a principal balance of $2.4 million and deferred gain of $0.2 million.
