4.5. Short-term borrowings
The Company and General Physics Canada Ltd. (GP Canada), an Ontario corporation
and a wholly-owned subsidiary of General Physics, entered into a credit
agreement, dated as of June 15, 1998, as amended and restated as of August 31,
2000 (the "Amended and Restated Agreement") with various banks. As of June 15,
2001, the Company and GP Canada entered into the Third Amendment to the Amended
and Restated Agreement (the "Third Amendment"), which among other things, (i)
extended the maturity date of the revolving credit notes to October 15, 2001,
(ii) reduced the amount available under the revolving credit loan to
$42,000,000, (iii) amended the interest rate from LIBOR plus 2.50% to LIBOR plus
2.95% and (iv) amended certain financial covenants. The Third Amendment required
certain mandatory asset sales and refinancings by August 30, 2001, which
condition has been satisfied by the Company.
As of October 15, 2001, the Company and GP Canada entered into the Fourth
Amendment to the Amended and Restated Agreement with the various banks (the
"Fourth Amendment"), which among other things, (i) extended the maturity date of
the revolving credit notes to December 14, 2001, and (ii) required that the
Company sign a commitment letter for a new credit facility on or before October
22, 2001. The Company satisfied this requirement by signing a commitment letter
for a three year $49.5 million revolving credit and term loan agreement with a
financial institution.
The Company utilized the proceeds from such asset sales and refinancings to reduce its
term loan from $13,313,000 at December 31, 2000 to $7,769,000$5,723,000 at JuneSeptember 30,
2001. The term loan is payable in quarterly installments of $187,500, with a
final payment due on June 15, 2003.
At JuneSeptember 30, 2001, the amount outstanding under the revolving credit
facility is $30,093,000$32,477,000 and is included in Short-term borrowings in the
Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheet. At JuneSeptember 30, 2001, the Company had
approximately $11,000,000$8,000,000 available to be borrowed under the Credit Agreement and
was in compliance with all of its financial covenants.
Based upon ongoing discussions with its banks and the fact that the Company has
been in compliance with all financial covenants under its Amended and Restated
Agreement, the management of the Company believes that its credit facility will
either be further extended or refinanced by October 15, 2001, the current
expiration date of the Amended and Restated Agreement.

7. Asset impairment charge and restructuring chargescharge
During 1999, the Company adopted restructuring plans, primarily related to its
IT Business segment. The Company took steps in order to change the focus of the
IT group from open enrollment information technology training courses to project
oriented work for corporations, which was consistent with the focus of General
Physics Corporation's (GP) current business. In connection with the
restructuring, the Company recorded a charge of $7,374,000 in 1999.
The Company believed at that time that the strategic initiatives and cost
cutting moves taken in 1999 and the first quarter of 2000 would enable the IT
Group to return to profitability in the last six months of 2000. However, those
plans were not successful, and the Company determined that it could no longer
bring the open enrollment IT business to profitability. Additionally there had
been further impairment to intangible and other assets. In July 2000, as a
result of the continued operating losses incurred by the IT Group, as well as
the determination that revenues would not increase to profitable levels, the
Company decided to close its open enrollment IT business in the third quarter of
2000. As a result, the Company recorded asset impairment charges of $19,245,000
during the yearnine months ended December 31,September 30, 2000, related to write-offs of
intangible assets, property, plant and equipment, and other assets of the IT
Group.

7.8. Litigation
On January 4, 2001, the Company commenced an action alleging that MCI
Communications Corporation, Systemhouse, and Electronic Data Systems
Corporation, as successor to Systemhouse, committed fraud in connection with the
Company's 1998 acquisition of Learning Technologies from the defendants for
$24.3 million. The Company seeks actual damages in the amount of $117.9 million
plus interest, punitive damages in an amount to be determined at trial, and
costs. In February 2001, the defendants filed answers denying liability. No
counterclaims against the plaintiffs have been asserted. The case is currently
in discovery.
The complaint, which is pending in the New York State Supreme Court, alleges
that the defendants created a doctored budget to conceal the poor performance of
the United Kingdom operation of Learning Technologies. The complaint also
alleges that the defendants represented that Learning Technologies would
continue to receive business from Systemhouse even though defendants knew that
the sale of Systemhouse to EDS was imminent and that such business would cease
after such sale.

Recent accounting pronouncements
In July 2001, the FASB issued Statement No. 141, Business Combinations, and
Statement No. 142, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets. Statement 141 requires
that the purchase method of accounting be used for all business combinations
initiated after June 30, 2001 as well as all purchase method business
combinations completed after June 30, 2001. Statement 141 also specifies
criteria intangible assets acquired in a purchase method business combination
must meet to be recognized and reported apart from goodwill, noting that any
purchase price allocable to an assembled workforce may not be accounted for
separately. Statement 142 will require that goodwill and intangible assets with
indefinite useful lives no longer be amortized, but instead tested for
impairment at least annually in accordance with the provisions of Statement 142.
Statement 142 will also require that intangible assets with definite useful
lives be amortized over their respective estimated useful lives to their
estimated residual values, and reviewed for impairment in accordance with SFAS
No. 121, Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived
Assets to Be Disposed Of.
As of the date of adoption, the Company expects to have unamortized goodwill in
the amount of approximately $56,000,000 and unamortized identifiable intangible
assets in the amount of approximately $1,000,000 both of which will be subject
to the transition provisions of Statements 141 and 142. Amortization expense
related to goodwill was approximately $2,800,000 and $1,300,000$2,000,000 for the year
ended December 31, 2000 and the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2001,
respectively. Because of the extensive effort needed to comply with adopting
Statements 141 and 142, it is not practicable to reasonably estimate the impact
of adopting these Statements on the Company's financial statements at the date
of this report, including whether any transitional impairment losses will be
required to be recognized as the cumulative effect of a change in accounting
principle.
In August 2001, the FASB issued Statement No. 143, Accounting for Asset
Retirement Obligations, which addresses financial accounting and reporting for
obligations associated with the retirement of tangible long-lived assets and the
associated asset retirement costs. This Statement applies to all entities that
have legal obligations associated with the retirement of long-lived assets that
result from the acquisition, construction, development or normal use of the
asset. Enterprises are required to adopt Statement No. 143 for fiscal years
beginning after June 15, 2002. The Company has not yet determined the impact of
adopting this pronouncement on its financial statements.
In October 2001, the FASB issued Statement No. 144, Accounting for the
Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets, which addresses financial
accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets.
While statement No. 144 supersedes FASB Statement No. 121, Accounting for the
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to Be Disposed Of, it
retains many of the fundamental provisions of that Statement.
Statement No. 144 also supersedes the accounting and reporting provisions of APB
Opinion No. 30, Reporting the Results of Operations--Reporting the Effects of
Disposal of a Segment of a Business, and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently
Occurring Events and Transactions, for the disposal of a segment of a business.
However, it retains the requirement in Opinion 30 to report separately
discontinued operations and extends that reporting to a component of an entity
that either has been disposed of (by sale, abandonment, or in a distribution to
owners) or is classified as held for sale. By broadening the presentation of
discontinued operations to include more disposal transactions, the FASB has
enhanced management's ability to provide information that helps financial
statement users to assess the effects of a disposal transaction on the ongoing
operations of an entity. Statement No. 144 is effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2001 and interim periods within those fiscal years.
The Company has not yet determined the impact of adopting this pronouncement on
its financial statements.
Adoption of a Common European Currency
On January 1, 1999, eleven European countries adopted the Euro as their common
currency. From that date until January 1, 2002, debtors and creditors may choose
to pay or to be paid in Euros or in the former national currencies.
On and after January 1, 2002, the former national currencies will cease to be
legal tender.
The Company is currently reviewing its information technology systems and
upgrading them as necessary to ensure that they will be able to convert among
the former national currencies and the Euro, and process transactions and
balances in Euros, as required. The Company has sought and received assurances
from the financial institutions with which it does business that they will be
capable of receiving deposits and making payments both in Euros and in the
former national currencies. The Company does not expect that adapting its
information technology systems to the Euro will have a material impact on its
financial condition or results of operations. The Company is also reviewing
contracts with customers and vendors calling for payments in currencies that are
to be replaced by the Euro, and intends to complete in a timely way any required
changes to those contracts.
Adoption of the Euro is likely to have competitive effects in Europe, as prices
that had been stated in different national currencies become directly comparable
to one another. In addition, the adoption of a common monetary policy throughout
the countries adopting the Euro can be expected to have an effect on the economy
of the region. These competitive and economic effects cannot be predicted with
certainty, and there can be no assurance that they will not have a material
effect on the Company's business in Europe.
