ACQUISITION OR DISPOSITION OF ASSETS. THE CURRENT REPORT ON FORM 8-K CONTAINS FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS WITHIN THE MEANING OF SECTION 27A OF THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "SECURITIES ACT") AND SECTION 21E OF THE SECURITIES EXCHANGE ACT OF 1934, AS AMENDED, RELATED TO ZAMBA CORPORATION, A DELAWARE CORPORATION ("ZAMBA"), AND ZAMBA'S ACQUISITION OF CAMWORKS, INC., A MINNESOTA CORPORATION ("CAMWORKS"), THAT MAY INVOLVE SUBSTANTIAL RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES. THESE UNCERTAINTIES INCLUDE RISKS RELATING TO THE INTEGRATION OF ZAMBA AND CAMWORKS. ACTUAL RESULTS AND DEVELOPMENTS THEREFORE MAY DIFFER MATERIALLY FROM THOSE DESCRIBED OR INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE IN THIS REPORT. FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT ZAMBA AND RISKS ARISING WHEN INVESTING IN ZAMBA, YOU ARE DIRECTED TO ZAMBA'S MOST RECENT REPORTS ON FORM 10-K AND FORM 10-Q, AS FILED WITH THE SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION (THE "COMMISSION"). On December 28, 1999, Zamba, ZCA Corp., a Minnesota corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Zamba ("Merger Sub") and Camworks entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger and Reorganization (the "Agreement") providing for the merger of Camworks with and into Merger Sub (the "Merger"). The terms of the Agreement, including the consideration paid, were determined through arms' length negotiations between Zamba and Camworks. Zamba is a customer care consulting company. Camworks is a provider of web-based ecommerce software integration services. The Merger became effective on December 29, 1999, when the Articles of Merger were filed with the Minnesota Secretary of State (the "Effective Time"). In accordance with the terms of the Agreement, at the Effective Time: (a) the separate corporate existence of Camworks ceased; with Merger Sub continuing as the surviving corporation; and (b) each outstanding share of Camworks capital stock was automatically converted into the right to receive 9,300 shares of Zamba common stock. Zamba issued an aggregate of 1,000,000 shares of Zamba common stock under Regulation D of the Securities Act in connection with the Merger. The Merger is intended to be a tax-free reorganization under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and will be accounted for as a pooling of interests. The foregoing discussion regarding the Agreement and the Merger is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Agreement, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 2.1, and which is hereby incorporated by reference. The Merger will result in the integration of two companies that have previously operated independently. As soon as practicable following the Merger, Zamba intends to integrate certain aspects of the operations of Camworks into Zamba. However, there can be no assurance that Zamba will successfully integrate the operations of Camworks with those of Zamba or that any or all of the benefits expected from such integration will be realized. Any delays or unexpected costs incurred in connection with such integration could have an adverse effect on Zamba's business, operating or financial condition. Furthermore, there can be no assurance that the operations, management and personnel of the two companies will be compatible or that Zamba will not experience the loss of key personnel and clients. There can be no assurance that combining the business of Zamba and Camworks, even if achieved in an efficient and effective manner, will result in combined results of operations and financial condition that are superior to what would have been achieved by Zamba or Camworks independently. In addition, certain costs are generally associated with transactions such as the Merger. While these costs have not been currently identified, any such costs will adversely affect operating results of Zamba in the period in which they are incurred. Finally, the parties intend that the transaction will be eligible for tax-free treatment, but failure to obtain such status could increase the costs of the transaction. ITEM 5. OTHER EVENTS In connection with the Merger, Zamba entered into a Registration and Rights Agreement dated as of December 28, 1999 providing the shareholders of Camworks with certain rights to require registration with the Commisssion of the Zamba common stock being issued to them in connection with the Merger, which agreement is filed as Exhibit 4.1, and is hereby incorporated by reference.

This Agreement may be terminated and the Merger may be abandoned at any time prior to the Effective Time, notwithstanding any requisite approval and adoption of this Agreement, as follows: (a) by mutual written consent duly authorized by the Boards of Directors of each of Parent, Merger Sub and Camworks; (b) by either Parent or Camworks, if the Effective Time shall not have occurred on or before January 1, 2000 (the "DROP DEAD DATE"); provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement under this Section 8.1(b) shall not be available to any party whose material breach of a representation or warranty of covenant has been the cause of, or resulted in, the failure of the Effective Time to occur by such time; (c) by Camworks, upon a material breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement on the part of Parent or Merger Sub set forth in this Agreement, or if any representation or warranty of Parent shall have become untrue, in either case such that the conditions set forth in Section 7.3(a) or (b) would not be satisfied (a "TERMINATING PARENT BREACH"); provided, however, that, if such Terminating Parent Breach is curable by Parent through the exercise of its best efforts and for so long as Parent continues to exercise such best efforts, Camworks may not terminate this Agreement under this Section 8.1(e); (d) by Parent, upon breach of any representation, warranty, covenant or agreement on the part of Camworks or the Shareholders set forth in this Agreement, or if any representation or warranty of Camworks or the Shareholders shall have become untrue, in either case such that the conditions set forth in Sections 7.2(a) or (b) would not be satisfied ("TERMINATING CAMWORKS BREACH"); provided, however, that, if such Terminating Camworks Breach is curable by Camworks or the Shareholders through best efforts and for so long as Camworks and the Shareholders continue to exercise such best efforts, Parent may not terminate this Agreement under this Section 8.1(f); (e) by either Parent or Camworks, if any Governmental Entity shall have issued an order or taken any other action permanently restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and such order or other action shall have become final and nonappealable. SECTION 8.2 EFFECT OF TERMINATION. Subject to Section 11.1 hereof, in the event of termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1, this Agreement shall forthwith become void, there shall be no liability under this Agreement on the part of Parent, Merger Sub or Camworks or any of their respective officers or directors and all rights and obligations of each party hereto shall cease; provided, however, that nothing herein shall relieve any party from liability for the willful breach of any of its representations, warranties, covenants or agreements set forth in this Agreement. SECTION 8.3 AMENDMENT. This Agreement may be amended by the parties hereto by action taken by or on behalf of their respective Boards of Directors at any time prior to the Effective Time; provided, however, that, after the approval and adoption of this Agreement by the Shareholders of Camworks, there shall not be any amendment that by Law requires further approval by the Shareholders of Camworks without the further approval of such stockholders. This Agreement may not be amended except by an instrument in writing signed by the parties hereto. SECTION 8.4 WAIVER. At any time prior to the Effective Time, any party hereto may (a) extend the time for the performance of any obligation or other act of any other party hereto, (b) waive any inaccuracy in the representations and warranties contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto and (c) waive compliance with any agreement or condition contained herein. Any such extension or waiver shall be valid if set forth in an instrument in writing. ARTICLE IX INDEMNIFICATION AND ESCROW SECTION 9.1 INDEMNIFICATION BY CAMWORKS' SHAREHOLDERS. From and after the Closing, each Shareholder shall jointly and severally indemnify Parent and the Surviving Corporation and any employee, director, officer or agent (the "PARENT INDEMNIFIED PARTIES") of each of them against, hold each of them harmless from, and reimburse each of them for any claim, costs, loss, liability or expense (including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses) or other damage (including, without limitation, expectation, actual, punitive and consequential damages) (collectively, "DAMAGES") arising, directly or indirectly, from or in connection with: (a) any inaccuracy in any of the warranties or representations of Camworks or any Shareholder in this Agreement (other than the Several Representations, for which only the Shareholder making such representation is liable), (b) any failure by Camworks or any Shareholder to perform or comply with any covenant or obligation in this Agreement, or (c) any Third Party Claim (as defined below) relating to an inaccuracy or failure referred to in clause (a) or (b) above, including any claim to ownership of shares of Camworks Common Stock or proceeds thereof by any spouse or former spouse of a Shareholder. SECTION 9.2 INDEMNIFICATION BY PARENT. From and after the Closing, the Parent shall indemnify each Shareholder ("CAMWORKS INDEMNIFIED PARTIES") against, and hold each of them harmless from, and reimburse each of them for any Damages arising, directly or indirectly, from or in connection with: (a) any inaccuracy in any of the warranties or representations of Parent and Merger Sub in this Agreement, (b) any failure by Parent or Merger Sub to perform or comply with any covenant or obligation in this Agreement, or (c) any Third Party Claim relating to an inaccuracy or failure referred to in clause (a) or (b) above. Any Parent Indemnified Party or Camworks Indemnified Party entitled to indemnification under this Article IX is referred to herein as an "INDEMNIFIED PARTY", and any party against whom such indemnification is sought is referred to as an "INDEMNIFYING PARTY." SECTION 9.3 PROCEDURE FOR THIRD PARTY CLAIMS. Promptly after receipt by an Indemnified Party of notice of the commencement of any action or demand or claim by a third party (a "THIRD PARTY CLAIM") which may give rise to Damages, such Indemnified Party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against a Shareholder, give notice to the Shareholder Representative, and if such claim is to be made against Parent, give notice to Parent, of its assertion of such claim for indemnification and provide reasonable detail with respect thereto. Failure so to notify the Indemnifying Party shall not relieve any Indemnifying Party of any liability that it may have to any Indemnified Party except to the extent that the defense of such action or Third Party Claim is materially prejudiced thereby. If any such action shall be brought or a Third Party Claim shall be asserted against an Indemnified Party and the Indemnified Party shall give notice to the Indemnifying Party of the commencement or assertion thereof, the Indemnifying Party (which in the case of a claim against the Shareholders, shall be the Shareholder Representative) shall be entitled, at its own expense (and with respect to the Shareholders, without recourse to the Escrowed Property), to participate therein and, to the extent that it shall wish, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnified Party. If an Indemnifying Party (which in the case of the Shareholders, shall be the Shareholder Representative) receives notice of any action or Third Party Claim, it shall promptly notify the Indemnified Party as to whether, at it expense (and with respect to the Shareholders, without recourse to the Escrowed Property), it intends to control the defense thereof. If the Indemnifying Party defends an action, it shall have full control over the litigation, including settlement and compromise thereof, subject only to the following: no compromise or settlement thereof may be effected without the Indemnified Party's consent (which shall not be unreasonably withheld) unless (i) there is no finding or admission of any violation of law and no effect on any other claims that may be made against the Indemnified Party and (ii) the soe relief provided is monetary damages that are paid in full by the Indemnifying Party. If notice is given to the Indemnifying Party of the commencement of any action and it does not, within 20 days after the Indemnified Party's notice is given, give notice to the Indemnified Party of its election to assume the defense thereof, the Indemnified Party shall have full control over the litigation, including settlement and compromise thereof. SECTION 9.4 PROCEDURES RELATED TO OTHER CLAIMS. In the event an Indemnified Party shall have a claim against an Indemnifying Party that does not involve a Third Party Claim being asserted against or sought to be collected from such Indemnified Party, the Indemnified Party shall deliver notice of such claim with reasonable promptness to the Indemnifying Party. The failure by any Indemnified Party to so notify an Indemnifying Party shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability which it may have to the Indemnified Party, except to the extent that the Indemnifying Party has been actually prejudiced by such failure. SECTION 9.5 INDEMNITY PERIOD. No claim for indemnification under Article IX of this Agreement may be made unless notice is given by the Indemnified Party to the Indemnifying Party on or prior to the earlier of March 31, 2001 and the date Parent shall have filed its Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2000, except for claims of breaches of the representations and warranties in (i) Section 3.14, for which a notice of claim must be made within six years of the Closing Date and (ii) Sections 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.4, 2.5, 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4, 3.7, 3.23, 4.1, 4.2 and 4.3, for which a notice of claim must be made within the applicable statutes of limitation related to any such claim. SECTION 9.6 BASKET; CAP. (a) The Shareholders shall not be liable to the Parent Indemnified Parties, unless and until the aggregate claims by the Parent Indemnified Parties exceed $50,000, and then only to the extent such claims exceed $50,000. Parent shall not be liable to the Camworks Indemnified Parties, unless and until the aggregate claims by the Camworks Indemnified Parties exceed $50,000, and then only to the extent such claims exceed $50,000. (b) The Shareholders shall not be liable to the Parent Indemnified Parties to the extent aggregate claims indemnified hereunder by the Shareholders exceed 25% of the Aggregate Merger Consideration. In addition, no Shareholder shall be liable for more than the pro-rata share (based on the Allocation Ratio) of the dollar value of the Aggregate Merger Consideration received by such Shareholder. "AGGREGATE MERGER CONSIDERATION" means the product of the number of shares of Parent Common Stock issued to the Shareholders pursuant to Section 1.6(a) multiplied by the Average Parent Stock Price. The limit set forth in this paragraph shall not apply to Damages resulting from (i) breaches of the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.4, 2.5, 3.1, 3.2, 3.3, 3.4 or 3.7; (ii) breaches of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 3.23 if Camworks or any Shareholder knew or should have known about the facts giving rise to such Damages; or (iii) Camworks' or any Shareholder's fraud or willful or intentional misrepresentation or intentional or willful breach. (c) Parent shall not be liable to the Camworks Indemnified Parties to the extent aggregate claims indemnified hereunder by Parent exceed 25% of the Aggregate Merger Consideration. The limit set forth in this paragraph shall not apply to Damages resulting from (i) breaches of the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 4.1, 4.2 or 4.3 or (ii) Parent's fraud or willful or intentional misrepresentation or intentional or willful breach. SECTION 9.7 SATISFACTION OF INDEMNIFICATION CLAIM. In the event any Shareholder shall have any liability for indemnification or otherwise to any Indemnified Party under this Article IX, the liability may be satisfied first with recourse against the Escrowed Property, then, to the extent that the aggregate amount of outstanding indemnification claims by Parent Indemnified Parties against the Shareholders exceeds the value of the Escrowed Property, with recourse against the Shareholders directly. SECTION 9.8 THE SHAREHOLDER REPRESENTATIVE. (a) The Shareholder Representative has been authorized, designated and appointed to act as the sole and exclusive agent, attorney-in-fact and representative of each of the Shareholders by the consent of the Shareholders and as such has been authorized and directed to (i) take any and all actions (including without limitation executing and delivering any documents, incurring any costs and expenses for the account of the Shareholders and making any and all determinations required by this Agreement) which may be required in carrying out his duties under this Agreement, (ii) exercise such other rights, power and authority as are authorized, delegated and granted to the Shareholder Representative under this Agreement in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, and (iii) exercise such rights, power and authority as are incidental to the foregoing. Any such actions taken, exercises of rights, power or authority, and any decision or determination made by the Shareholder Representative consistent therewith shall be absolutely and irrevocably binding on each Shareholder as if such Shareholder personally had taken such action, exercised such rights, power or authority or made such decision or determination in such Shareholder's individual capacity. (b) The Shareholder Representative shall have no duties towards the Shareholders, and shall not incur any liability to the Shareholders, and the Shareholders shall have no claims, including those that may arise in the future, against the Shareholder Representative for any action or inaction taken or not taken by him in connection with his service as the Shareholder Representative, except to the extent that such action or inaction shall have been held by a court of competent jurisdiction to constitute willful misconduct. (c) Each of the Shareholders hereby appoints Timothy A. Cameron as the Shareholder Representative, and the Shareholder Representative hereby accepts such appointment. ARTICLE X DISPUTE RESOLUTION SECTION 10.1 INITIAL MEETING. In the event that there is a dispute arising out of or relating to this Agreement, the parties shall attempt in good faith to resolve such disputes promptly by negotiation between the parties. Any party may give the other parties written notice that a dispute exists (a "NOTICE OF DISPUTE"). The Notice of Dispute shall include a statement of such party's position. Within ten (10) days of the delivery of the Notice of Dispute, the parties shall meet at a mutually acceptable time and place, and thereafter as long as they reasonably deem necessary, to attempt to resolve the dispute. All documents and other information or data on which each party relies concerning the dispute shall be furnished or made available on reasonable terms to the other party at or before the first meeting of the parties as provided by this Section 10.1. SECTION 10.2 MEDIATION. If the dispute has not been resolved by negotiation within thirty (30) days of the delivery of a Notice of Dispute, or if the parties have failed to meet within ten (10) days of the Notice of Dispute, the parties shall endeavor to settle the dispute by mediation under the then current CPR Model Mediation Procedure for Business Disputes. Unless otherwise agreed, the parties shall select a mediator from the CPR Panels of Neutrals and shall notify CPR to initiate the selection process. SECTION 10.3 BINDING ARBITRATION. Any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any agreement or document in connection therewith, the breach, termination or validity thereof, or the transactions contemplated herein (including any question arising as to whether or not any dispute falls within the terms of this Section or the selection of arbitrators) if not settled by negotiation or mediation as provided in Section 10.1 and Section 10.2, shall be settled by arbitration in Minneapolis, Minnesota, in accordance with the CPR Rules for Non-Administrative Arbitration of Business Disputes by three arbitrators. Any party may initiate arbitration from and after 60 days following the delivery of a Notice of Dispute if the dispute has not then been settled by negotiation or mediation. The arbitrators shall be appointed by the parties as provided by CPR Rule 5, Selection of Arbitrators. The arbitration procedure shall be governed by the United States Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. Section 1-16, and the award rendered by the arbitrators shall be final and binding on the parties and may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. SECTION 10.4 DISCOVERY. Each party shall have discovery rights as provided by the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure; provided, however, that all such discovery shall be commenced and concluded within ninety (90) days of the initiation of arbitration. SECTION 10.5 EXPEDITIOUS PROCEEDINGS. It is the intent of the parties that any arbitration shall be concluded as quickly as reasonably practicable. Unless the parties otherwise agree, once commenced, the hearing on the disputed matters shall be held four days a week until concluded, with each hearing date to begin at 9:00 a.m. and to conclude at 5:00 p.m. The arbitrators shall use all reasonable efforts to issue the final award or awards within a period of five (5) business days after closure of the proceedings. Failure of the arbitrators to meet the time limits of this Section 10.5 shall not be a basis for challenging the award. SECTION 10.6 ARBITRATION COSTS. Each party shall bear its own costs in connection with the arbitration and shall share equally the fees and expenses of the arbitrators. SECTION 10.7 ENFORCEMENT OF AWARDS. Each party agrees that any legal proceeding instituted to enforce an arbitration award hereunder will be brought in a court of competent jurisdiction (either state or federal) in Minneapolis, Minnesota and hereby submits to personal jurisdiction therein and irrevocably waives any objection as to venue therein, and further agrees not to plead or claim in any such court that any such proceeding has been brought in an inconvenient forum. SECTION 10.8 EQUITABLE RELIEF. Nothing herein shall be construed to prevent any party from seeking equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to restrain or prohibit any breach or threatened breach of any covenant of the parties set forth in this Agreement, whether or not the parties have first sought to resolve the dispute through negotiation, mediation or arbitration pursuant to this Article X. ARTICLE XI GENERAL PROVISIONS SECTION 11.1 REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES AND AGREEMENTS.

SECTION 11.7 OTHER REMEDIES; SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE. Except as otherwise provided herein, any and all remedies herein expressly conferred upon a party will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby, or by law or equity upon such party, and the exercise by a party of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy.

It is accordingly agreed that the parties shall be entitled to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in any court of the United States or any state having jurisdiction, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity.

("CAMWORKS"), a Minnesota corporation. This Agreement is made in connection with the execution of the Agreement and Plan of Reorganization dated as of December 28, 1999 (the "MERGER AGREEMENT") pursuant to which Camworks is merging with and into a wholly-owned subsidiary of Zamba and Zamba is issuing shares of its Common Stock ("ZAMBA COMMON STOCK") to Holders of the outstanding Camworks Shares. All capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings given to them in the Merger Agreement. The parties hereto agree as follows: SECTION 1 - REGISTRATION RIGHTS 1.1 RESALE REGISTRATION. Zamba will use its best efforts, with respect to the Shares, within 75 days after the Closing Date under the Merger Agreement (so long as any audited financial statements of Camworks necessary to be included in such filing are available), to prepare and file a Registration Statement (the "RESALE REGISTRATION STATEMENT") on Form S-3 (or any similar registration statement then in effect) under the Securities Act covering the resale by each Holder of the Holder's shares of Zamba Common Stock received pursuant to the Merger Agreement in the amounts set forth on Exhibit I hereto (the "Shares"), as applicable, from time to time in transactions not involving an underwritten public offering and will use reasonable efforts to cause the Registration Statement to be declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "COMMISSION") as soon as practicable thereafter and to keep the Registration Statement covering the Shares continuously effective for the period ending one year after the Closing Date, but in no event after the date on which any Holder no longer holds any Shares registered under the Registration Statement (the "EFFECTIVE PERIOD"). 1.2 PIGGY-BACK REGISTRATION. (a) If prior to the time the Resale Registration statement is filed, and before the end of the Effective Period, Zamba proposes to file a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to an offering by Zamba for its own account or for the account of other holders of Zamba Common Stock to be offered for cash (other than in connection with the registration of securities issuable pursuant to an employee stock option, stock purchase or similar plan or pursuant to a merger, exchange offer or a transaction of the type specified in Rule 145(a) under the Securities Act), then Zamba shall in each case give written notice of such proposed filing to the Holders at least 20 days before the filing date, and such notice shall offer such Holders the opportunity to register such number of Shares as each such Holder may request (the "PIGGY-BACK REGISTRATION"). If such offer is accepted by written notice to Zamba from the Holders of at least 20% of the Shares then held by the Holders (with a proportional adjustment for any stock split or stock dividend or other issuance of securities with respect to such Shares) within 15 days of the giving of the written notice provided for in the preceding sentence, Zamba shall use its best efforts to permit, or (in the case of a proposed underwritten offering) to cause the managing underwriter or underwriters thereof to permit, the Holders of Shares requested to be included, in the registration for such offering to include such Shares in such offering on the same terms and conditions as the corresponding securities of Zamba included therein; PROVIDED that (i) if, at any time after giving written notice of its intention to register any securities and prior to the effective date of the registration statement filed in connection with such registration, Zamba shall determine for any reason not to proceed with the proposed registration, Zamba may, at its election, give written notice of such determination to each Holder of Shares requested to be included in such registration and thereupon shall be relieved of its obligation to register any Shares in connection with such registration (but not from its obligation to pay the Registration Expenses (defined below) in connection therewith) and (ii) if such registration involves an underwritten offering by Zamba (underwritten, at least in part, by Persons who are not affiliates or associates of Zamba or any Holder), all Holders requesting to have Shares included in Zamba's registration must sell their Shares to such underwriters who shall have been selected by Zamba on the same terms and conditions as apply to Zamba, with such differences, including any with respect to indemnification and contribution, as may be customary or appropriate in combined primary and secondary offerings. If a proposed registration pursuant to this Section 1.2 involves such an underwritten public offering, any Holder making a request under this Section 1.2 in connection with such registration may elect in writing, prior to the effective date of the registration statement filed in connection with such registration, to withdraw such request and not to have such securities registered in connection with such registration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the managing underwriter or underwriters of a proposed underwritten offering advise Zamba in writing that in their opinion the total amount or kind of securities that the Holders have requested to be included in such offering would adversely affect the success of such offering, then the amount of securities to be offered for the accounts of Holders of Shares and securities to be offered for the account of other stockholders shall be reduced pro rata to the extent necessary to reduce the total amount of securities to be included in such offering to the amount recommended by such managing underwriter or underwriters. 1.3 PROCEDURES. In connection with any Registration Statement (defined below): (a) Zamba will promptly (subject to Section 1.4) prepare and file with the Commission such amendments and post-effective amendments to the Registration Statement as may be necessary to keep the Registration Statement effective for as long as such registration is required to remain effective hereunder; will cause the Prospectus (defined below) to be supplemented by any required Prospectus supplement, and, as so supplemented, to be filed pursuant to Rule 424 under the Securities Act; and will comply with the provisions of the Securities Act applicable to it with respect to the disposition of all Shares covered by such Registration Statement during the applicable period in accordance with the intended methods of disposition by the Holders set forth in the Registration Statement or supplement to the Prospectus. (b) Zamba will promptly furnish to each Holder such number of copies of the Prospectus (including each preliminary Prospectus) and any amendments or supplements thereto as the Holder may reasonably request in order to facilitate the public sale or other disposition of the Shares being sold by the Holder. (c) Zamba will, on or prior to the date on which the Registration Statement is declared effective, use reasonable efforts to register or qualify the Shares covered by the Registration Statement under such securities or "blue sky" laws, if any, as may be applicable of such states of the United States as any Holder reasonably requests; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that Zamba shall not be required to qualify generally to do business in any jurisdiction where it would not otherwise be required to qualify or to file any general consent to service of process. (d) Zamba will promptly give notice to each Holder (i) when the Prospectus or any Prospectus supplement or post-effective amendment has been filed and, with respect to the Registration Statement or any post-effective amendment, when the same has become effective, (ii) of any request by the Commission or any state securities authority with jurisdiction for amendments and supplements to the Registration Statement and Prospectus or for additional information after the Registration Statement has become effective, (iii) of the issuance by the Commission of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement, (iv) of the issuance by any state securities commission or other regulatory authority with jurisdiction of any order suspending the qualification or exemption from qualification of any of the Shares under any applicable state securities or "blue sky" laws and (v) of the happening of any event which makes any statement made in the Registration Statement or related Prospectus untrue or which requires the making of any changes in the Registration Statement or Prospectus so that they will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. As soon as practicable following any of such events, but in any case not later than the expiration of the period for suspension of disposition of the Shares under Section 1.4, Zamba will prepare and file with the Commission and furnish such supplement or amendment to such Prospectus as may be necessary so that, as thereafter deliverable to the purchasers of the Shares, such Prospectus will not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statement therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. 1.4 SUSPENSION PERIOD. Upon receipt of a notice under clauses (ii) through (v) of Section 1.3(d), each Holder will forthwith discontinue disposition of the Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement until the Holder's receipt of the copies of the supplemented or amended Prospectus contemplated by Section 1.3(d) or until the Holder is advised in writing by Zamba that the use of the Prospectus may be resumed and has received copies of any additional or supplemental filings which are incorporated by reference in the Prospectus, and, if so directed by Zamba, the Holder will deliver to Zamba (at Zamba's expense) all copies, other than permanent file copies then in the Holder's possession, of the Prospectus covering the Shares current at the time of receipt of such notice; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that in no event will the period of suspension of disposition of the Shares under this Section 1.4 exceed 90 days. 1.5 REGISTRATION EXPENSES. Zamba will bear all expenses incurred in connection with the registration of the Shares pursuant to this Section 1 ("Registration Expenses"), including without limitation all printing, legal and accounting expenses incurred by Zamba and all registration and filing fees imposed by the Commission, any state securities commission or the Nasdaq Stock Market or, if the common stock of Zamba is not then listed on such market, the principal national securities exchange or national market system on which the common stock is then traded or quoted. Each Holder will be responsible for any brokerage commissions and taxes of any kind (including, without limitation, transfer taxes) with respect to any disposition, sale or transfer of the Holder's Shares and for any legal, accounting and other expenses incurred by the Holder. 1.6 INDEMNIFICATION. (a) INDEMNIFICATION BY ZAMBA. Zamba agrees to indemnify and hold harmless, to the full extent permitted by law, each Holder, its partners, officers, directors, trustees, stockholders, employees and agents, and each person who controls such Holder within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, or is under common control with, or is controlled by, such Holders, together with the partners, officers, directors, trustees, stockholders, employees and agents of such controlling person (collectively, the "CONTROLLING PERSONS"), from and against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses, including without limitation reasonable legal fees and expenses (collectively, the "DAMAGES"), incurred by such Holder and any such Controlling Person arising out of or based upon any untrue or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto), or any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary to make the statements therein in light of the circumstances under which they were made not misleading, or any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Prospectus (as amended or supplemented if Zamba shall have furnished any amendments or supplements thereto), or any omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary to make the statements therein in light of the circumstances under which they were made not misleading, except insofar as such Damages arise out of or are based upon any such untrue statement or omission based upon information relating to such Holder furnished in writing to Zamba by such Holder specifically for use therein; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that Zamba shall not be liable to any Holder under this Section 1.6(a) to the extent that any such Damages were caused by the fact that such Holder sold the Shares to a person as to whom it shall be established that there was not sent or given, at or prior to the written confirmation of such sale, a copy of the Prospectus as then amended or supplemented if, and only if (i) Zamba has previously furnished copies of such amended or supplemented Prospectus to such Holder and (ii) such Damages were caused by any untrue statement or omission or alleged untrue statement or omission contained in the Prospectus so delivered which was corrected in such amended or supplemented Prospectus. (b) INDEMNIFICATION BY THE HOLDERS. Each Holder agrees, severally and not jointly, to indemnify and hold harmless Zamba, its directors, officers and each person, if any, who controls Zamba within the meaning of either Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act to the same extent as the foregoing indemnity from Zamba to such Holder, but only with reference to information relating to such Holder furnished in writing to Zamba by such Holder specifically for use in the Registration Statement (or any amendment thereto) or any Prospectus (or any amendment or supplement thereto); PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that such selling Holder shall not be obligated to provide such indemnity to the extent that such Damages result from the failure of Zamba to promptly amend or take action to correct or supplement the Registration Statement or Prospectus on the basis of corrected or supplemental information provided by such Holder to Zamba expressly for such purpose. In no event shall the liability of any Holder of the Shares hereunder be greater in amount than the amount of the proceeds received by such Holder upon the sale of the Shares giving rise to such indemnification obligation. (c) PROCEDURE. Each party entitled to indemnification under this Section 1.6 (the "INDEMNIFIED PARTY") shall give prompt notice of any claim as to which indemnification may be sought to the party required to provide indemnification (the "INDEMNIFYING PARTY"), provided that failure to give such notice shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligations hereunder except to the extent of actual prejudice. The Indemnifying Party shall be entitled to assume the defense of any such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party. The Indemnified Party may participate in such defense at its own expense, provided that the Indemnifying Party will pay such expense if representation of the Indemnified Party by the counsel retained by the Indemnifying Party would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between the Indemnified Party and any other party represented by such counsel in such proceeding. No Indemnifying Party shall, except with the consent of the Indemnified Party, agree to any settlement that does not include a release of the Indemnified Party from all liability in respect of such claim, and the Indemnified Party shall not settle such claim without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party. 1.7 RESTRICTIONS ON SALE. In the event of an underwritten public offering for the account of Zamba, upon the written request of the managing underwriter or underwriters of such offering, each Holder agrees not to effect any public sale or distribution of any securities similar to those being registered in such offering, including without limitation, through sales of the Shares pursuant to the Registration Statement, during the 21 days prior to, and during the 90-day period beginning on, the effective date of the Registration Statement relating to such offering. In the event of the delivery of such a request, the right of a Holder to sell under the Registration Statement and the obligations of Zamba to keep the Registration Statement current shall be suspended for the period specified in the preceding sentence, provided that the periods during which Zamba is obligated to keep any Registration Statement effective pursuant to Section 1.1 shall be extended for a period equal to the length of any such suspension. Zamba hereby confirms that it has no current plan to engage in an underwritten public offering for its account. 1.8 CERTAIN DEFINITIONS.
