If, at the end of such period, Buyer and the Domestic Seller Companies do not resolve such items of dispute, the parties shall submit any disputed items, and only such disputed items, to Grant Thornton LLP (the "Arbitrating Accountant"). Buyer and Seller Companies may submit any relevant data and information to the Arbitrating Accountant, including a presentation of the facts, authorities and principles supporting such party's position with respect to the disputed items. Buyer and the Domestic Seller Companies shall have seven days to submit to the Arbitrating Accountant one written response to the initial submission from the other party. The Arbitrating Accountant shall determine, based solely on submissions and responses by Buyer and the Domestic Seller Companies, and not by independent review, only those items remaining in dispute regarding the Net Working Capital and the Earnout Payment. The Arbitrating Accountant shall not review any disputes that are subject to a breach of representation

and warranty or covenant claim, including whether any offset against the Earnout Payment was proper. The Arbitrating Accountant shall deliver a written determination to Buyer and Seller Companies of the final Net Working Capital and Earnout Payment. The Arbitrating Accountant's determination shall be conclusive and binding on the parties. The fees and expenses of the Arbitrating Accountant and the other reasonable costs and expenses (including attorneys' and accountants' fees) incurred by the parties related to or arising from the resolution of the Closing Date Dispute Notice or the Earnout Dispute Notice, as the case may be, shall be shared by Buyer and the Domestic Seller Companies as follows: of the aggregate amount in dispute, if the Arbitrating Accountant adopts Buyer's position absolutely, the Domestic Seller Companies shall pay all such fees, costs and expenses, and if the Arbitrating Accountant adopts the Domestic Seller Companies' position absolutely, Buyer shall pay all such fees, costs and expenses. If the Arbitrating Accountant adopts a compromise between the two positions, then Buyer and the Domestic Seller Companies shall share the fees, costs and expenses in inverse proportion to the relative success of each party, with the more successful party bearing a proportionately smaller share of the fees, costs and expenses.

2.09 Upfront Purchase Price Allocation. The Upfront Purchase Price shall be paid among the Seller Companies as set forth in this Agreement and the Indian Asset Purchase Agreement. Within 120 days after the Closing Date, Buyer shall provide to the Domestic Seller Companies a proposed allocation for Tax purposes of the Upfront Purchase Price described herein (as adjusted pursuant to Section 2.06) among the Acquired Assets and the Indian Assets and among the Seller Companies, which allocation shall be reasonable and in accordance with the principles of Section 1060 of the Code and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder (the "Draft Allocation Statement"). Under the Draft Allocation Statement, any payment made pursuant to Section 2.06(c) or 2.06(d), the Escrow Payment and the Earnout Payment, if any, shall be allocated to goodwill. Within 30 days following such provision, the Domestic Seller Companies shall have the right to object to the Draft Allocation Statement (by written notice to Buyer), and if the Domestic Seller Companies object, they shall notify Buyer (in such written notice) of such disputed item (or items) and the basis for its objection. If the Domestic Seller Companies do not object by written notice within such period, the Draft Allocation Statement shall be deemed to have been accepted and agreed upon, and be final and conclusive, for all purposes of this Agreement. Each of the Domestic Seller Companies and Buyer shall act in good faith to resolve any such dispute prior to the date on which Form 8594, or a comparable form with respect to foreign Tax Authorities, is required to be filed with the appropriate Tax Authority. If the Domestic Seller Companies and Buyer cannot resolve any disputed item, the item in question shall be resolved by the Arbitrating Accountant, and the decision of the Arbitrating Accountant shall be deemed to have been accepted and agreed upon, and be final and conclusive, for all purposes of this Agreement. The fees and expenses of such Arbitrating Accountant shall be apportioned and paid equally by the Domestic Seller Companies and Buyer. The Draft Allocation Statement, once accepted and agreed upon (or deemed accepted and agreed upon pursuant hereto) shall be referred to as the "Allocation Statement." Except with respect to any subsequent adjustments to the Upfront Purchase Price (which shall be allocated using the mechanism for allocating the Upfront Purchase Price in this Section 2.09), the Domestic Seller Companies and Buyer and their respective Affiliates (i) shall be bound by the determinations and the Allocation Statement determined pursuant to this Section 2.09 consistent therewith for purposes of determining any Taxes, (ii) shall prepare and file all Tax Returns required to be filed with any Tax Authority in a manner consistent with the Allocation Statement and (iii) shall take no position inconsistent with the Allocation Statement in any Tax Return, any proceeding before any Tax Authority or otherwise (in each case, unless required to do otherwise pursuant to a "determination" as defined in Section 1313 of the Code (a "Determination")). In the event that the Allocation Statement is disputed by any Tax Authority, the Person receiving notice of such dispute shall promptly notify and consult with the other parties concerning resolution of such dispute. Each of the Domestic Seller Companies and Buyer shall cooperate in the preparation and timely filing of (1) Form 8594 and any comparable state or local forms or reports, and (2) to the extent permissible by or required by law, any corrections, amendments, or supplements (or additional forms or reports) thereto (including any supplements, amendments, forms or reports arising as a result of any adjustments to the Upfront Purchase Price). Any Earnout paid to the Domestic Seller Companies will be allocated between the Domestic Seller Companies in the same manner as the Allocation Statement.

Unless required by law and after advance, prior written notice to Buyer, no Domestic Seller Company shall, prior to the end of such transition period, amend any of the benefit plans of such Domestic Seller Company in which any Continuing Domestic Employee participates under this Section 5.06(a). Each Domestic Seller Company shall be solely responsible for the compliance of its respective benefit plans in which any Continuing Domestic Employee participates under this Section 5.06(a) with all Applicable Law, including, but not limited to, requirements of the Code, ERISA and the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as amended.

With respect to such Buyer Plans, Buyer shall credit prior service of the Continuing Domestic Employees as reflected on the records of the Domestic Seller Companies provided to Buyer on or before the day immediately prior to the Closing Date for purposes of participation and vesting under any such Buyer Plan and for purposes of participation, vesting, and calculation of benefits for periods on or after the Closing Date with respect to vacation benefits to the extent that such service is recognized under the analogous benefit plans and programs maintained by or on behalf of Buyer (but this credit will not obligate Buyer to continue the employee benefit plans and programs maintained by Buyer or otherwise alter the terms and conditions of the Buyer Plans or Buyer's vacation benefits or any of them); provided, that such service need not be credited to the extent it will result in duplication of benefits.

(b) Tax Returns and Audits. The Domestic Seller Companies and the Principal shall cause to be timely paid, before the same shall become delinquent and before penalties accrue thereon, all Taxes (a) shown (or required to be shown) to be due on any Tax Return (or amendment thereto) filed (or required to be filed) by the Seller Companies with respect to Tax periods of any Seller Company ending on or before the day immediately prior to the Closing Date relating to the Acquired Assets, the Indian Assets or the Business whether such Tax Returns are required to be filed on, before or after the Closing Date and (b) that become due from, or payable by, a Seller Company relating to the Business, the Indian Assets or the Acquired Assets with respect to such periods (collectively, the "Pre-Closing Taxes").

The Domestic Seller Companies and Buyer shall retain or cause to be retained, until the applicable statutes of limitations (including any extensions) have expired, copies of all Tax Returns relating to the Acquired Assets, the Indian Assets or the Business for all tax periods beginning before the Closing Date, together with supporting work schedules and other records or information that may be relevant to such Tax Returns.

(d) Amended Returns. Following the Closing, no Domestic Seller Company shall amend or cause to be amended any Tax Return relating to any Seller Company with respect to the Business, the Indian Assets or the Acquired Assets which could affect the amount of any Taxes for which Buyer could be liable subsequent to the Closing without the prior approval of Buyer, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.

Whenever it is necessary for purposes of the Closing, any indemnification required under this Section 5.08 or any other provision of this Agreement to determine any liability for Taxes relating to the Business, the Indian Assets or the Acquired Assets attributable to a period or any portion thereof ending on the Closing Date or any period straddling the Closing Date, and the Tax Return in respect of such Tax liability relates to a taxable year or period beginning on or before and ending after the Closing Date (a "Straddle Period"), the determination shall be made by apportioning the total Taxes involved by treating the day immediately before the Closing Date as the end of a short taxable year of the applicable Seller Company and by treating the Closing Date as the beginning of a short taxable year of Buyer. In making this computation, exemptions, allowances, or deductions calculated on an annual basis, such as the deduction for depreciation, shall be apportioned as provided in the Code. All Periodic Taxes which are past due as of the Closing Date shall be paid by the Domestic Seller Companies (or if a Seller Company has objected to such Taxes, the Domestic Seller Companies shall assume or cause ZSP to assume responsibility for such Taxes), together with any penalty or interest thereon. Current Periodic Taxes shall be prorated and adjusted between the Domestic Seller Companies and Buyer as of the Closing Date on a per diem basis based on the number of days in the portion of such Straddle Period ending on the day immediately before the Closing Date ("Pre-Closing Period") and the number of days of such taxable period beginning on the Closing Date ("Post-Closing Period"). The Domestic Seller Companies and the Principal shall be liable for the proportionate amount of such Taxes that is attributable to the Pre-Closing Period, and Buyer shall be liable for the proportionate amount of such Taxes that is attributable to the Post-Closing Period.

5.11 Restriction Agreements. As additional consideration for Buyer, and as a material inducement for Buyer to enter into this Agreement and to consummate the Acquisition, each ZSI Interest Holder shall enter into the applicable Restriction Agreement, with Buyer on or before the Closing Date. No Domestic Seller Company shall transfer any portion of the Total Purchase Price set forth on Schedule 5.04(b) to any ZSI Interest Holder unless such ZSI Interest Holder has executed and delivered to Buyer the applicable Restriction Agreement. The Restriction Agreements shall require each such ZSI Interest Holder to agree to certain matters, including, but not limited to, certain transfer restrictions related to the extent shares of Buyer Common Stock are transferred to them by the applicable Domestic Seller Company and to certain noncompetition and nonsolicitation provisions as mutually agreed to between Buyer and such ZSI Interest Holder.

Any claims for indemnification in accordance with this ARTICLE VIII with respect to Damages resulting from any representation or warranty must be made (and will be null and void unless made) prior to the end of the applicable survival period. Upon expiration of such period, no Indemnifying Party shall have any liability for Damages under such indemnification obligations unless it has received written notice from an Indemnified Party claiming indemnification prior to the expiration of the applicable period as required.

8.03 Additional Provisions.

(a) Limitations on Indemnified Amounts of the Domestic Seller Companies and the Principal. In no event shall the aggregate indemnity obligations of the Domestic Seller Companies and the Principal hereunder and the aggregate indemnity obligations of ZSP and the Principal under the Indian Asset Purchase Agreement together exceed $12,500,000. The liability of the Domestic Seller Companies and the Principal for indemnification under this ARTICLE VIII by reason of or arising out of any breach by a Domestic Seller Company or the Principal of any representation, warranty or covenant shall not be modified, waived or diminished by any examination or investigation conducted by Buyer of the books, records or operations of the Domestic Seller Companies. Buyer shall not permit Perficient India to make an indemnification claim under the Indian Asset Purchase Agreement if the aggregate indemnity obligations of the Domestic Seller Companies and Principal hereunder and the aggregate indemnity obligations of ZSP and the Principal under the Indian Asset Purchase Agreement together exceed $12,500,000. Further, Buyer shall not permit Perficient India to make an indemnification claim under the Indian Asset Purchase Agreement until the Purchaser Indemnification Basket has been met.

(b) Limitations on Indemnified Amounts of Buyer. In no event shall Buyer's aggregate indemnity obligations hereunder and the aggregate indemnity obligations of Perficient India under the Indian Asset Purchase Agreement together exceed an amount equal to the maximum potential aggregate indemnification obligations of the Domestic Seller Companies, ZSP and the Principal as provided in Section 8.03(a), except for any payment of all or any portion of the Total Purchase Price. The liability of Buyer for indemnification under this ARTICLE VIII by reason of or arising out of any breach by Buyer of any representation, warranty or covenant shall not be modified, waived or diminished by any examination or investigation conducted by the Domestic Seller Companies of the books, records or operations of Buyer. The Domestic Seller Companies and the Principal shall not permit ZSP to make an indemnification claim under the Indian Asset Purchase Agreement if the aggregate indemnity obligations of Buyer hereunder and the aggregate indemnity obligations of Perficient India under the Indian Asset Purchase Agreement together exceed $12,500,000. Further, the Domestic Seller Companies and the Principal shall not permit ZSP to make an indemnification claim under the Indian Asset Purchase Agreement until the Seller Companies Indemnification Basket has been met.

(c) Satisfaction of Indemnification Obligations. Buyer agrees that all indemnifiable Damages payable by the Domestic Seller Companies or the Principal shall be satisfied as follows:

(i) First, against the Holdback Amount;

(ii) Second, with the Escrow Payment;

(iii) Third, against the Earnout, if any, that would otherwise be due to any of the Domestic Seller Companies pursuant to Section 2.07; and

(iv) Fourth, against the Principal and the Domestic Seller Companies, jointly and severally, subject to the maximum potential indemnification obligation of the Domestic Seller Companies and the Principal as provided in Section 8.03(a).

(d) No Limitation in Event of Fraud. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, nothing in this ARTICLE VIII (including the provisions of paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section 8.03) or otherwise shall limit, in any manner, any remedy at law or equity, to which any party may be entitled as a result of Fraud by any Indemnifying Party.

(e) Exclusivity of Remedy; Survival of Covenants. Following the Closing, except in respect of claims based upon Fraud or any violation of federal securities laws, the indemnification accorded by this ARTICLE VIII shall be the sole and exclusive remedy of the parties indemnified under this ARTICLE VIII in respect of any claim for Damages arising out of or in connection with this Agreement, any document or certificate delivered pursuant hereto or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. In the event of any breach or failure in performance after the Closing of any covenant or agreement, a non-breaching party shall also be entitled to seek specific performance, injunctive or other equitable relief against such breaching party. The covenants of any party in ARTICLE V shall terminate according to the terms of such covenant and the expiration of the applicable statutes of limitations, except that the pre-closing agreements in Section 5.1 shall survive for a period of 24 months after the Closing.

(f) Subrogation. Upon making any payment to an Indemnified Party for any indemnification claim pursuant to this ARTICLE VIII, an Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated, to the extent of such payment, to any rights that the Indemnified Party may have against any other persons with respect to the subject matter underlying such indemnification claim and the Indemnified Party shall take such actions as the Indemnifying Party may reasonably require to perfect such subrogation or to pursue such rights against such other persons as the Indemnified Party may have.

(g) Insurance. All Damages shall be computed net of any amounts that are reimbursable by insurance. The Purchaser Indemnitees shall use Commercially Reasonable Efforts to make any claims for insurance and indemnification available from a third party with respect to Damages for which it will seek indemnification hereunder and to diligently pursue such claims in good faith. If any such insurance proceeds or other amounts are received by any Purchaser Indemnitee with respect to any Damages already paid by Principal or the Domestic Seller Companies pursuant to this ARTICLE VIII, Buyer shall repay to the Principal and the Domestic Seller Companies, promptly after receipt of such insurance proceeds or other amounts, the amount of Damages that Principal and the Domestic Seller Companies would not have had to pay had such insurance proceeds or other amounts been received by the Buyer prior to such indemnification payment by under this ARTICLE VIII.

(h) Duty to Mitigate. Buyer shall take, and shall cause its Affiliates to take, Commercially Reasonable Efforts to mitigate any Damages upon becoming aware of any event which would reasonably be expected to, or which does, give rise thereto.

(i) No Duplication of Recovery. For purposes of this ARTICLE VIII, in computing the amount of any individual or aggregate amounts of Damages, the amount of Damages shall be net of any reserves or accruals set forth for such matter in the Closing Date Statement. Additionally, no Indemnified Party may recover duplicative Damages in respect of a single set of facts or circumstances, taking into account for these purposes, the amounts collected by an Indemnified Party, under or in connection with this Agreement or the Indian Asset Purchase Agreement.

8.04 Claim Notice; Definitions; Third Party Claim Procedures.

(a) Claim Notice. An Indemnified Party shall give each Indemnifying Party from whom indemnification is sought prompt written notice (a "Claim Notice") of any claim, demand, action, suit, proceeding or discovery of fact upon which the Indemnified Party intends to base the claim for indemnification under this ARTICLE VIII, which shall contain (i) a reasonably detailed description and a good faith estimate of the amount of any Damages incurred or reasonably expected to be incurred by the Indemnified Party, (ii) a statement stating the basis for which the Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification under this ARTICLE VIII for such Damages, and (iii) a demand for payment, provided, however, that no failure or delay to give such Claim Notice shall excuse any Indemnifying Party from any obligation hereunder except to the extent the Indemnifying Party is materially and actually prejudiced by such failure. Buyer, each of the Domestic Seller Companies and the Principal agree that the procedures set forth in the Escrow Agreement with respect to Claim Notices and responses thereto shall govern all claims made against the Escrow Payment. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, prior to Buyer's performance of any Domestic Seller Companies Warranty Liabilities, Buyer shall provide to the Domestic Seller Companies and the Principal (w) notice of and copy of any warranty claim that Buyer claims to be a Domestic Seller Companies Warranty Liability, (x) the Contract and the warranty giving rise to such warranty claim and any related documentation, (y) an opportunity to review with Buyer the information in clauses (w) and (x), and (z) a reasonable opportunity to communicate with Buyer regarding the scope of work and potential solutions in respect of such warranty claim, and then only thereafter, and if such becomes a Domestic Seller Companies Warranty Liability, Buyer will be entitled to claim indemnification pursuant to Section 8.01(a)(iv).

(b) Third Party Claim Procedures. The Indemnifying Party will have the right to defend the Third Party Claim with counsel of its choice reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, exercising commercially reasonable discretion, so long as (i) the Indemnifying Party acknowledges in writing to the Indemnified Party and without qualification (or reservation of rights) its indemnification obligations as provided in this ARTICLE VIII, and (ii) the Third Party Claim involves only money damages and does not seek an injunction or other equitable relief. The Indemnifying Party shall lose its right to defend and settle the Third Party Claim if it shall fail to diligently contest, defend, litigate and settle the Third Party Claim as provided herein. So long as the Indemnifying Party has not lost its right to contest, defend, litigate and settle and/or obligation to contest, defend, litigate and settle as herein provided, the Indemnifying Party shall have the exclusive right to contest, defend and litigate the Third Party Claim and shall have the right, upon receiving the prior written approval of the Indemnified Party (which shall not be unreasonably withheld unless such settlement does not fulfill the conditions set forth in the following sentence and which shall be deemed automatically given if a response has not been received within the 30-day period following receipt of the proposed settlement by the Indemnified Party), to settle any such matter, either before or after the initiation of litigation, at such time and upon such terms as it deems fair and reasonable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein contained, in connection with any settlement negotiated by an Indemnifying Party, no Indemnified Party or Indemnifying Party (as the case may be) that is not controlling the defense and/or settlement of the Third Party Claim (the "Non-Control Party") shall be required by an Indemnifying Party or Indemnified Party controlling the litigation to (and no such party shall) (x) enter into any settlement that does not include as an unconditional term thereof the delivery by the claimant or plaintiff to the Non-Control Party of a release from all liability in respect of such claim or litigation, (y) enter into any settlement that attributes by its terms liability to the Non-Control Party or which may otherwise have an adverse effect on the Indemnified Party's business, or (z) consent to the entry of any judgment that does not include as a term thereof a full dismissal of the litigation or proceeding with prejudice. All expenses (including attorneys' fees) incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with the foregoing shall be paid by the Indemnifying Party. No failure by an Indemnifying Party to acknowledge in writing its indemnification obligations under this ARTICLE VIII shall relieve it of such obligations to the extent they exist. If an Indemnified Party is entitled to indemnification against a Third Party Claim, and the Indemnifying Party fails to accept a tender of, or assume, the defense of a Third Party Claim pursuant to this ARTICLE VIII, or if, in accordance with the foregoing, the Indemnifying Party does not have the right or shall lose its right to contest, defend, litigate and settle such a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party shall have the right, without prejudice to its right of indemnification hereunder, in its discretion exercised in good faith and upon the advice of counsel, to contest, defend and litigate such Third Party Claim, and may settle such Third Party Claim, either before or after the initiation of litigation, at such time and upon such terms as the Indemnified Party deems fair and reasonable, provided that at least 20 days prior to any such settlement, written notice of its intention to settle is given to the Indemnifying Party. If, pursuant to this Section 8.04(b), the Indemnified Party so contests, defends, litigates or settles a Third Party Claim, for which it is entitled to indemnification hereunder as provided herein, the Indemnified Party shall be reimbursed by the Indemnifying Party for the Damages that constitute reasonable attorneys' fees and other expenses of defending, contesting, litigating and/or settling the Third Party Claim which are incurred from time to time, forthwith following the presentation to the Indemnifying Party of itemized bills for said attorneys' fees and other expenses. The Indemnified Party or the Indemnifying Party, as the case may be, shall furnish such information in reasonable detail as it may have with respect to a Third Party Claim (including copies of any summons, complaint or other pleading which may have been served on such party and any written claim, demand, invoice, billing or other document evidencing or asserting the same) to the other party if such other party is assuming defense of such claim, and make available all records and other similar materials which are reasonably required in the defense of such Third Party Claim and shall otherwise cooperate with and assist the defending party in the defense of such Third Party Claim.
