Item 1.01
Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Asset Purchase Agreement

On November 21, 2007, Perficient, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) by and among the Company, ePairs Inc. (“ePairs”), a California corporation, Ganesan Swaminathan (Kumar Nathan) (the “Principal”) and Uma Swaminathan (together with Ganesan Swaminathan, the “Seller Shareholders”), pursuant to which the Company purchased substantially all of ePairs’ assets and properties used or held for use in connection with the Business (as such term is defined in the Purchase Agreement) and assumed certain liabilities of ePairs (the “Acquisition”). The Acquisition closed on November 21, 2007. The consideration paid by the Company to ePairs in the transaction is approximately $5.0 million, and includes $2.5 million in cash and 138,604 shares of the Company's common stock worth approximately $2.5 million (based on the average closing price of the Company's common stock on the Nasdaq Global Select Market for the thirty trading days immediately preceding the closing date of the Acquisition; GAAP accounting will require using the closing price of the Company's common stock at or near the closing date of the Acquisition in reporting the value of the stock consideration paid in the Acquisition).  The total consideration paid excludes transaction costs and is subject to certain post-closing adjustments.
 
The Purchase Agreement contains other customary terms and provisions. The assets acquired in the Acquisition include accounts receivable, personal property, the rights and benefits under certain contracts and intangible assets of ePairs. Prior to the Acquisition, the assets of ePairs were used to provide information technology consulting and staffing solutions to their customers. The Company intends to continue such uses for the assets acquired in the Acquisition.  Also as part of the assets acquired in the Acquisition, the Company acquired an 80% equity interest in ePairs India Private Limited, an India Private Limited company (“ePairs India”), which operates a technology consulting recruiting office in Chennai, India.

The foregoing summary of the Purchase Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Purchase Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 2.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

The information set forth in Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K regarding the Purchase Agreement and the Acquisition is incorporated by reference into this Item 2.01.

As described under Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K, on November 21, 2007, the Company issued 138,604 shares of the Company's common stock (or approximately $2.5 million based on the average closing price of the Company's common stock on the Nasdaq Global Select Market for the thirty trading days immediately preceding the closing date of the Acquisition) to ePairs as part of the total consideration for the Acquisition. The shares were issued in reliance on an exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “ Securities Act”), provided by Section 4(2) of the Securities Act and/or Regulation D promulgated thereunder.
