                               PROSPECTUS SUMMARY
 
    YOU SHOULD READ THE FOLLOWING SUMMARY TOGETHER WITH THE MORE DETAILED
INFORMATION AND OUR FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND NOTES TO THOSE STATEMENTS APPEARING
ELSEWHERE IN THIS PROSPECTUS.
 
                                   PERFICIENT
 
    We provide virtual professional services organizations to Internet software
companies. A virtual professional services organization is a dedicated team of
information technology professionals that plans, manages and executes software
product implementations. This allows the Internet software companies we work
with to focus on their core business of improving and selling their software
without maintaining a large in-house professional services organization. We
believe this enables them to bring products to market faster and respond more
quickly to their end-user customer needs, which helps them achieve success in
the marketplace.
 
    We refer to the Internet software companies with which we work as
"partners." Our partners license their Internet software products to their
end-user customers. We then deploy a team that analyzes end-user customer goals
and requirements, defines the scope of the implementation project, designs a
project plan and installs, configures, implements and integrates our partner's
Internet software products. Our partners are responsible for billing and
collecting payments from their end-user customers and paying us for the services
performed by our professional services organizations.
 
    We established our first partner relationship with Vignette Corporation, an
Internet relationship management company, in February 1998. We have recently
established partner relationships with Interwoven, Inc., an enterprise Web
production company, Motive Communications, Inc., a support chain automation
company, and Ventix Systems Inc., a knowledge support company.
 
                              INDUSTRY BACKGROUND
 
    With the recent explosion of Internet activity, an industry of Internet
software companies has emerged. These companies develop software to perform or
support Web-enabled interaction, whether between businesses or between
businesses and consumers. Internet software includes software designed to
facilitate, among others, the following tasks:
 
<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
- - customer relationship management         - knowledge management
<S>                                        <C>
- - e-commerce                               - customer support
- - site analysis                            - e-mail management
- - marketing automation                     - e-billing management
</TABLE>
 
    We focus on the Internet software market because we believe it exhibits the
high-growth, intense competition and short product lifecycles that create a
demand for our services. Forrester Research estimates that the market for
Internet professional services will grow from $5.4 billion in 1998 to $32.7
billion in 2002, representing a compound annual growth rate of 56.9%.
 
                                    STRATEGY
 
    Our objective is to become the leading provider of virtual professional
services organizations to rapidly growing Internet software companies. To
achieve this objective, our strategy is to:
 
    - focus on high-growth, service-intensive segments of the Internet software
      market;
 
    - establish partner relationships with emerging leaders in identified
      high-growth segments;
 
    - build and acquire a portfolio of high-growth, low-overhead dedicated
      boutique virtual professional services organizations; and
 
                                       2
<PAGE>
    - support those boutique organizations through a national infrastructure
      that provides business development, partner service, human resources,
      performance appraisal, financial reporting and budgeting services.
 
                                  OUR OFFICES

                                  RISK FACTORS
 
    THIS OFFERING INVOLVES A HIGH DEGREE OF RISK. YOU SHOULD CAREFULLY CONSIDER
THE FOLLOWING RISKS AND THE OTHER INFORMATION IN THIS PROSPECTUS BEFORE DECIDING
TO PURCHASE SHARES OF OUR COMMON STOCK.
 
OUR LIMITED OPERATING HISTORY MAKES EVALUATING OUR BUSINESS DIFFICULT
 
    We began our business in September 1997 and we only began providing services
on any significant basis in mid-1998 and primarily to only one partner. As a
result, we have a limited operating history upon which you may evaluate our
business and prospects. Companies in an early stage of development frequently
encounter greater risks and unexpected expenses and difficulties. Our long-term
success will depend on our ability to achieve satisfactory results for our
partners and their end-user customers and to form long-term relationships with
our partners. We have not been in operation long enough to judge whether our
partners will perceive our work as being beneficial to their businesses or
desire to form any long-term business relationships. Also, because of our
limited operating history, our business reputation is based on a limited number
of engagements. All of our partners have only limited experience with the
services performed by our virtual professional services organizations.
Accordingly, we cannot assure you that our partners will call upon us again in
the future. Because of our limited operating history, it is difficult to
evaluate whether we will be successful in forming such long-term relationships.
 
WE HAVE LOST MONEY DURING MOST OF THE QUARTERS DURING WHICH WE HAVE BEEN IN
  BUSINESS AND EXPECT TO LOSE MONEY IN THE FUTURE.
 
    We have incurred operating losses in most of the quarters during which we
have been in business. In future quarters, our operating results may not meet
public market analysts' and investors' expectations. If that happens, the price
of our common stock may fall. Many factors can cause these fluctuations,
including:
 
    - the number, size, timing and scope of our projects;
 
    - customer concentration;
 
    - long and unpredictable sales cycles;
 
    - contract terms of projects;
 
    - degrees of completion of projects;
 
    - project delays or cancellations;
 
    - competition for and utilization of employees;
 
    - how well we estimate the resources we need to complete projects;
 
    - the integration of acquired businesses;
 
    - pricing changes in the industry; and
 
    - economic conditions specific to the Internet and information technology
      consulting.
 
    A high percentage of our operating expenses, particularly personnel and
rent, are fixed in advance of any particular quarter. We expect to increase
substantially our number of employees and our business infrastructure following
this offering in anticipation of the growth of our marketing efforts. As a
result, we will likely report losses for the immediate future and experience
large variations in quarterly operating results and losses in any particular
quarter.
 
THE LOSS OF SALES TO VIGNETTE CORPORATION WOULD HAVE A MATERIAL ADVERSE EFFECT
  ON OUR BUSINESS
 
    Vignette Corporation accounted for 91% of our revenue during 1998 and 100%
of our revenue during the three months ended March 31, 1999. Any termination of
our relationship with Vignette would have a
 
                                       5
<PAGE>
material adverse effect on our operating results and financial condition. Our
agreement with Vignette does not obligate Vignette to use our services, contains
no minimum requirements and may be terminated at any time by Vignette. Vignette
only retains our services on a case-by-case basis and may choose to use any
other firm or provide the services that we perform for itself. Therefore, any
downturn in Vignette's business or any shift in its decisions to continue to use
our services could also result in substantially reduced sales by us.
 
OUR PARTNERS ARE NOT OBLIGATED TO USE OUR SERVICES
 
    Our contracts with our partners do not obligate them to use our services. A
partner may choose to use another consulting firm or perform the services we
provide through an internal services organization at any time. Any termination
of a relationship with a partner, or a partner's decision to employ other
consulting firms or perform services in-house, could seriously harm our
business. Many of our potential partners that are in the early stages of
development may be unable to retain our services because of financial
constraints. In addition, our existing partners can generally reduce the scope
of or cancel their use of our services without penalty and with little or no
notice. If a partner defers, modifies or cancels an engagement or chooses not to
retain us for additional projects, we must be able to rapidly redeploy our
employees to other engagements in order to minimize under-utilization of
employees and the resulting harm to our operating results. Our operating
expenses are relatively fixed and cannot be reduced on short notice to
compensate for unanticipated variations in the number or size of engagements in
progress. These factors make it difficult for us to predict our revenues and
operating results. Our failure to accurately predict our revenues may seriously
harm our financial condition and operating results because we incur costs based
on our expectations of future revenues.
 
WE MAY ALIGN OURSELVES WITH PARTNERS THAT FAIL
 
    In selecting our partners, we seek to identify Internet software companies
which we believe will develop into market leaders. However, our partners compete
in new and rapidly changing markets. In certain of these markets, only a few
companies will survive. If we align ourselves with companies that fail to become
market leaders, our business may suffer because our partners will not have
significant demand for our services. We invest substantial resources to train
our information technology professionals regarding the use and features of our
partner's software and this investment will be lost if our partners fail.
 
WE HAVE AGREED NOT TO PERFORM SERVICES FOR COMPETITORS OF OUR PARTNERS WHICH
  LIMITS OUR POTENTIAL MARKET
 
    We have agreed with each of our partners not to perform services for their
competitors. These non-compete agreements substantially reduce the number of our
prospective partners. In addition, these agreements increase the importance of
our partner selection process because many of our partners compete in markets
where only a limited number of companies gain significant market share. If we
agree not to perform services for a particular partner's competitors and our
partner fails to gain meaningful market share, we are unlikely to receive future
material revenues in that particular market.
 
WE ARE FOCUSED SOLELY ON THE MARKET FOR INTERNET SOFTWARE
 
    Our business is dependent upon continued growth in the use of the Internet
by our partners, prospective partners and their end-user customers. If use of
the Internet does not continue to grow, or grows more slowly than expected, our
growth would decline and our business would be seriously harmed. There are a
variety of unresolved issues concerning the Internet that may cause a downturn
in the use of the Internet, including:
 
    - lack of access and ease of use;
 
    - congestion of Internet traffic;
 
                                       6
<PAGE>
    - inconsistent quality of service;
 
    - increases in access costs to the Internet;
 
    - delays in the development of security and authentication technology;
 
    - excessive governmental regulation;
 
    - uncertainty regarding intellectual property ownership;
 
    - reluctance to adopt new business methods; and
 
    - costs associated with the obsolescence of existing infrastructure.
 
    Any downturn in the market for Internet software would harm our business,
financial condition and operating results.
 
WE INTEND TO INCREASE OUR OVERHEAD IN ORDER TO EXPAND OUR BUSINESS WHICH WILL
  LIKELY RESULT IN LOSSES
 
    We expect to incur operating losses at least through the end of 1999. We
plan to increase our expenditure on sales and marketing, infrastructure
development, personnel and general and administrative in connection with our
efforts to expand our business. As a result, we will need to generate
significant revenues to achieve profitability. Even if we do achieve
profitability, we may not be able to sustain or increase profitability on a
quarterly or annual basis in the future. Although our revenues have grown in
recent quarters, you should not view our historical growth rates as indicative
of our future revenues.
 
WE MAY NOT GROW OR WE MAY BE UNABLE TO MANAGE OUR GROWTH
 
    Our business plan is to rapidly expand the number of partners and teams of
information technology professionals. However, we may not grow as planned or at
all. If we do grow, such growth will place significant strains on our management
personnel and other resources. It will be difficult to manage information
technology professionals who will be widely dispersed around the country. In
order to manage our growth, we will need to continue to improve our operational,
administrative and accounting systems and to continue to attract, train, retain,
motivate and manage our employees. In addition, our future success will depend
in large part on our ability to maintain high rates of employee utilization,
maintain project quality and meet delivery dates, while simultaneously
increasing our number of projects and partners. If we are unable to manage our
growth and projects effectively, our quality of services and ability to retain
key personnel will be adversely affected, and our business could be harmed.
 
WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO ATTRACT AND RETAIN INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY PROFESSIONALS
  WHICH COULD AFFECT OUR ABILITY TO COMPETE EFFECTIVELY
 
    Our business is labor intensive. Accordingly, our success depends in large
part upon our ability to attract, train, retain, motivate and manage highly
skilled information technology professionals. Because of the recent rapid growth
of the Internet, individuals who have Internet expertise and can perform the
services we offer are scarce. Qualified information technology professionals are
in great demand worldwide and are likely to remain a limited resource for the
foreseeable future. Furthermore, there is a high rate of attrition among such
personnel. Our business model requires that a significant number of our
employees travel to end-customer sites to perform services, which may make a
position with us less attractive to potential employees. Any inability to
attract, train and retain highly skilled information technology professionals
would impair our ability to adequately manage and staff our existing projects
and to bid for or obtain new projects, which in turn would adversely affect our
operating results. In addition, certain companies have adopted a strategy of
suing or threatening to sue its former employees and their new employers. As we
hire new employees from our current or potential competitors, we are likely to
be
 
                                       7
<PAGE>
sued. Any such litigation, regardless of merit, could result in substantial
costs and divert management's attention.
 
OUR BUSINESS MAY SUFFER IF WE LOSE OUR KEY PERSONNEL
 
    We believe that our success will depend on the continued employment of our
senior management team and key technical personnel, including our President,
Bryan Menell, and our Chief Executive Officer, John T. McDonald. This dependence
is particularly important in our business because personal relationships are a
critical element of obtaining and maintaining our partners. If any of these
people stop working for us, our level of management, technical, marketing and
sales expertise could be significantly diminished. These people would be
difficult to replace and our business could be seriously harmed.
 
OUR BUSINESS WILL BE NEGATIVELY AFFECTED IF WE DO NOT KEEP UP WITH RAPID
  TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGE, EVOLVING INDUSTRY STANDARDS OR CHANGING PARTNER
  REQUIREMENTS
 
    The Internet professional services market is characterized by rapidly
changing technology, evolving industry standards and changing partner needs.
Accordingly, our future success will depend, in part, on our ability to:
 
    - effectively use leading technologies;
 
    - continue to develop our strategic and technical expertise;
 
    - enhance our current services;
 
    - develop new services that meet changing partner and end-user customer
      needs;
 
    - advertise and market our services; and
 
    - influence and respond to emerging industry standards and other
      technological changes.
 
    All of these tasks must be accomplished in a timely and cost-effective
manner. We cannot assure you that we will succeed in effectively doing any of
these tasks and our failure to do so could have a material and adverse effect on
our business, financial condition or results of operations.
 
WE MAY NEED TO RAISE ADDITIONAL CAPITAL THAT MAY NOT BE AVAILABLE ON
  SATISFACTORY TERMS
 
    We anticipate that the net proceeds of this offering will be sufficient to
fund our operations and capital requirements for at least 12 months following
this offering. After that, we may need to raise additional funds. We cannot be
certain that we will be able to obtain additional financing on favorable terms,
if at all. If we need additional capital and cannot raise it on acceptable
terms, we may not be able to:
 
    - open new offices;
 
    - hire, train and retain employees;
 
    - respond to competitive pressures or unanticipated requirements; or
 
    - pursue acquisition opportunities.
 
OUR QUARTERLY OPERATING RESULTS WILL BE VOLATILE AND MAY CAUSE OUR STOCK PRICE
  TO FLUCTUATE
 
    Our quarterly revenue, expenses and operating results have varied
significantly in the past and are likely to vary significantly from quarter to
quarter in the future. Such quarterly fluctuations are based on a number of
factors, including:
 
    - The number, size, scope and contractual terms of projects in which we are
      engaged;
 
                                       8
<PAGE>
    - Our ability to attract, train and retain skilled management and
      information technology professionals;
 
    - Our employee utilization rates, including our ability to transition our
      information technology professionals from one project to another;
 
    - Changes in our pricing policies;
 
    - Our ability to manage costs; and
 
    - Costs related to acquisitions of other businesses.
 
    In addition, many factors affecting our operating results are outside of our
control. Some of these factors include:
 
    - Demand for Internet software;
 
    - End-user customer budget cycles;
 
    - Changes in end customers' desire for our partners' products and our
      services;
 
    - Pricing changes in our industry;
 
    - Government regulation and legal developments regarding the use of the
      Internet; and
 
    - General economic conditions.
 
    We derive all of our revenue from information technology professional
services, which we generally provide on a time-and-materials basis. A large
percentage of our operating expenses, particularly personnel and rent, are fixed
in advance of any particular quarter. While the number of information technology
professionals we employ may be adjusted to reflect active projects, such
adjustments take time, and we must maintain a sufficient number of information
technology professionals to oversee existing partner relationships and to focus
on securing new partner relationships. As a result, unanticipated variations in
our projects or in employee utilization rates may cause significant variations
in our operating results in any particular quarter and could adversely affect
our overall business and financial condition. Any failure to meet expectations
of securities analysts or the market in general could adversely affect the
market price of our common stock. Securities class action litigation is
frequently brought against companies following a sharp decline in their stock
price. Any such litigation, regardless of merit, could result in substantial
costs and a diversion of our management's attention away from the operation of
our business.
 
    Although we have limited historical financial data, we expect that we will
experience seasonal fluctuations in revenues. We expect that revenues in the
quarter ending December 31 will typically be lower than our other quarters
because there are fewer billable days in this quarter due to vacations and
holidays. This seasonal trend may materially affect our quarter-to-quarter
operating results.
 
OUR MARKET IS HIGHLY COMPETITIVE AND HAS LOW BARRIERS TO ENTRY
 
    The market for services to Internet software companies is relatively new,
intensely competitive, rapidly evolving and subject to rapid technological
change. Our competitors include:
 
    - Systems integrators, such as Cambridge Technology Partners, Sapient
      Corporation, Scient Corporation and Viant Corporation;
 
    - Large consulting firms, such as Andersen Consulting and the consulting
      arms of the large accounting firms;
 
    - Outsourcing firms, such as Computer Sciences Corporation, Electronic Data
      Systems and Perot Systems;
 
    - Information technology staffing firms, such as Keane, Inc. and Renaissance
      Worldwide;
 
                                       9
<PAGE>
    - Internet service firms, such as Proxicom, Inc. and USWeb Corporation; and
 
    - In-house information technology departments of our current and potential
      partners.
 
    We expect to face additional competition from new entrants into the market
because there are relatively low barriers to entry into this market. Many of our
current and potential competitors have longer operating histories, established
reputations and greater financial, technical and marketing resources than we do.
This may place us at a disadvantage in responding to our competitors' pricing
strategies, technological advances, advertising campaigns, strategic
partnerships and other initiatives. Many of our competitors have
well-established relationships with our potential partners and have extensive
knowledge of our industry. These competitors may be able to respond more quickly
to new or emerging technologies and changes in customer requirements and devote
more resources to the development, promotion and sale of their services than we
can.
 
WE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO ESTABLISH THE PERFICIENT BRAND NAME
 
    We hope to establish and maintain awareness of the Perficient brand name. We
plan to increase our marketing expenses to promote our brand name, which may
cause our operating margins to decline. Our brand may be closely associated with
the success or failure of our high-profile partners. Such partners are pursuing
new business opportunities in unproven markets. Any failure by one of our
partners could also damage the Perficient brand name.
 
OUR REPUTATION MAY BE DAMAGED AND WE MAY BE HELD LIABLE IF WE DO NOT
  SATISFACTORILY PERFORM OUR SERVICES
 
    Many of our projects are critical to the operations of our partner's
end-customers' businesses. Our failure to meet an end-customer's expectations in
the performance of our services could damage our reputation, result in a claim
for damages and adversely affect our ability to attract new business.
Unsatisfactory performance or unanticipated difficulties or delays in completing
such projects may result in partner dissatisfaction and a reduction in payment
to us or payment of damages by us. We may not be able to limit our liability,
through contractual provisions, insurance or otherwise.
 
WE FACE RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH FINDING AND INTEGRATING ACQUISITIONS
 
    A component of our growth strategy includes possibly acquiring other
information technology consulting companies. Our success will depend in part on
our ability to identify suitable acquisition candidates, acquire those companies
on acceptable terms and integrate their operations successfully. Acquisitions
would involve a number of potential risks including:
 
    - Adverse effects on operating results from increased goodwill amortization,
      acquired in-process research and development, stock compensation expense
      and increased compensation expense attributable to newly hired employees;
 
    - Diversion of management attention from other aspects of our business;
 
    - Failure to retain acquired personnel;
 
    - Harm to our reputation if an acquired company turns out to perform poorly;
      and
 
    - Assumption of liabilities of acquired companies, including potentially
      hidden liabilities.
 
    To the extent we use our available cash for acquisitions, we may not be able
to obtain additional financing on favorable terms or at all. To the extent we
use stock for acquisitions, such issuances will dilute the ownership of our
existing stockholders.
 
                                       10
<PAGE>
THE PROPOSED ELIMINATION OF POOLING OF INTERESTS ACCOUNTING TREATMENT MAY MAKE
  ACQUISITIONS DETRIMENTAL TO OUR OPERATING RESULTS
 
    The Financial Accounting Standards Board recently announced that it intends
to eliminate the possibility of accounting for an acquisition as a pooling of
interests. If we cannot account for an acquisition as a pooling of interests, we
would be required to amortize the difference between the price paid for the
acquired company and the book value of the acquired company over a period of
years. This would reduce our reported net income and could depress the market
price of our common stock.
 
YEAR 2000 RISKS MAY HARM OUR BUSINESS
 
    Many older computer systems and software products currently in use are coded
to accept only two digit entries in the date code field. These date code fields
will need to accept four digit entries to distinguish the year 1900 from the
year 2000. As a result, in less than 12 months, computer systems and software
used by many companies will need to be upgraded to comply with such "Year 2000"
requirements.
 
    We believe that the purchasing patterns of end-customers may be affected by
Year 2000 issues in a variety of ways. Many current or potential end-user
customers of our partners and potential partners are expending significant
resources to make their current systems Year 2000 compliant. Such expenditures
may reduce the funds available to purchase our partners' software and pay for
our implementation services in connection with such software.
 
    We have discussed the Year 2000 issues with our partners. We are in the
early stages of conducting a survey of our partners as to the Year 2000
compliance of their software. If we implement our partners' software that is not
Year 2000 compliant, we may have liability to their end-user customers. Any such
litigation, regardless of merit, could result in substantial costs and a
diversion of our management's attention away from the operation of our business.
 
    We have established procedures for evaluating and managing the risks and
costs associated our internal systems and believe that our internal systems are
currently Year 2000 compliant. The failure of our internal systems to operate
without Year 2000 complications could harm our business and require us to incur
significant unanticipated expenses to remedy any problems. In addition, we are
subject to external forces that might generally affect industry and commerce,
such as utility company Year 2000 compliance failures and related service
interruptions.
 
    Any of the foregoing, including costs of defending and resolving Year
2000-related disputes, reductions in software purchasing by our partners'
potential end-user customers or our failure to adequately resolve any internal
Year 2000 compliance issues could harm our business and adversely affect our
operating results.
 
OUR SHARE PRICE MAY BE VOLATILE BECAUSE OUR SHARES HAVE NOT BEEN PUBLICLY TRADED
  BEFORE
 
    Prior to this offering, you could not buy or sell our common stock publicly.
An active public market for our common stock may not develop or be sustained
after this offering. You may not be able to resell your shares at or above the
initial public offering price due to a number of factors, including:
 
    - fluctuations in our operating results;
 
    - changes in expectations as to our future financial performance, including
      changes in financial estimates of securities analysts;
 
    - increased competition;
 
    - departures of key personnel; or
 
    - operating and stock price performance of other comparable companies.
 
                                       11
<PAGE>
    In addition, the stock market in general has recently experienced extreme
volatility that often has been unrelated to the operating performance of
particular companies. These broad market and industry fluctuations may adversely
affect the trading price of our common stock regardless of our actual operating
performance. You should read the "Underwriting" section of this prospectus for a
more complete discussion of the factors to be considered in determining the
initial public offering price.
 
WE ARE, AND WILL CONTINUE TO BE, CONTROLLED BY OUR OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS, WHICH
  COULD RESULT IN OUR TAKING ACTIONS THAT OTHER STOCKHOLDERS DO NOT APPROVE
 
    Our executive officers, directors and existing 5% and greater stockholders
will beneficially own or control, collectively, 2,380,892 shares of our common
stock, representing approximately 68% of the voting power of our company, after
this offering. After this offering, such persons, if they were to act together,
would be in a position to elect and remove directors and control the outcome of
most matters submitted to stockholders for a vote. Additionally, such persons
would be able to significantly influence any proposed amendment to our charter,
a merger proposal, a proposed sale of assets or other major corporate
transaction or a non-negotiated takeover attempt. Such concentration of
ownership may discourage a potential acquiror from making an offer to buy us,
which, in turn, could adversely affect the market price of our common stock. You
should read "Management," "Principal Stockholders" and "Description of Capital
Stock" for more information on control of Perficient.
 
WE MAY INVEST OR SPEND THE PROCEEDS OF THIS OFFERING IN WAYS WITH WHICH YOU MAY
  NOT AGREE
 
    We intend to use a large portion of the proceeds from this offering for
working capital and general corporate purposes. Our management will therefore
have a greater deal of discretion in determining how the proceeds are used.
Furthermore, because of the number and variability of factors that determine our
use of the net proceeds from this offering, we cannot assure you that these uses
will not vary substantially from our current intentions. Pending these uses, we
intend to invest the net proceeds from this offering in government securities
and other short-term, investment-grade, interest-bearing instruments.
 
IT MAY BE DIFFICULT FOR ANOTHER COMPANY TO ACQUIRE US AND THIS COULD DEPRESS OUR
  STOCK PRICE
 
    Provisions of our certificate of incorporation, bylaws and Delaware law
could make it difficult for a third party to acquire us, even if doing so would
be beneficial to our stockholders. You should read "Description of Capital
Stock" for more information on the anti-takeover effect of provisions of our
Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws and Delaware law.
 
OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS CAN ISSUE PREFERRED STOCK WITH RIGHTS ADVERSE TO THE
  HOLDERS OF COMMON STOCK
 
    After the offering, our board of directors will be authorized, without
further stockholder approval, to issue up to 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock
with such rights, preferences and privileges as our board of directors may
determine. Issuance of preferred stock with rights to distributions, voting
rights or other rights superior to the common stock would be adverse to the
holders of common stock.
 
PURCHASERS IN THIS OFFERING WILL INCUR IMMEDIATE AND SUBSTANTIAL DILUTION
 
    The initial public offering price of our common stock will be substantially
higher than the book value per share of our outstanding common stock. As a
result, investors purchasing common stock in this offering will incur immediate
and substantial dilution.
 
                                       12
<PAGE>
THE PRICE PER SHARE OF OUR COMMON STOCK IN THIS OFFERING MAY NOT BE INDICATIVE
  OF THE MARKET PRICE THAT WILL PREVAIL AFTER THIS OFFERING
 
    Since our stock has not yet traded publicly, our management and the
underwriters will negotiate the common stock's initial public offering price per
share. The price they determine may not be indicative of the market price that
will prevail after this offering. As a result, you may suffer a loss if the
market price that prevails after this offering is less than the price you paid
per share.
 
FUTURE SALES OF OUR COMMON STOCK IN THE PUBLIC MARKET COULD LOWER OUR STOCK
  PRICE AND IMPAIR OUR ABILITY TO RAISE FUNDS IN NEW STOCK OFFERINGS
 
    Sales of a substantial number of shares of common stock after this offering
could adversely affect the market price of our common stock and could impair our
ability to raise capital through the sale of additional equity securities. For a
description of the shares of our common stock that are available for future
sale, see "Shares Eligible for Future Sale."
 
                           FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
 
    This prospectus contains forward-looking statements that involve substantial
risks and uncertainties. You can identify these statements by forward-looking
words such as "may," "will," "expect," "anticipate," "believe," "estimate" and
"continue" or similar words. You should read statements that contain these words
carefully because they discuss our future expectations, contain projections of
our future operating results or of our financial condition or state other
"forward-looking" information. We believe that it is important to communicate
our future expectations to our investors. However, there may be events in the
future that we are not able to accurately predict or control. The factors listed
in the sections captioned "Risk Factors" and "Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," as well as any
cautionary language in this prospectus, provide examples of risks, uncertainties
and events that may cause our actual results to differ materially from the
expectations we describe in our forward-looking statements. Before you invest in
our common stock, you should be aware that the occurrence of the events
described in the "Risk Factors" section, the "Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" section and elsewhere
in this prospectus could have a material adverse effect on our business,
operating results and financial condition.

                                USE OF PROCEEDS
 
    Our net proceeds from the sale of the 1,000,000 shares of common stock we
are offering hereby are estimated to be approximately $6,000,000 after deducting
underwriting discounts and estimated offering expenses payable by us. If the
underwriters exercise their over-allotment option in full, we estimate that the
aggregate net proceeds will be approximately $7,000,000. We expect to use the
net proceeds, assuming no exercise of the underwriters' over-allotment option,
approximately as follows:

    RECRUITING, TRAINING AND EQUIPPING INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY
PROFESSIONALS.  Represents anticipated costs associated with hiring additional
information technology professionals. We believe that we must hire and keep on
staff a sufficient number of information technology professionals so that we may
be able to respond quickly to the demands of our customers.
 
    EXPANDING OUR MANAGEMENT AND TECHNOLOGY INFRASTRUCTURE.  Represents costs
associated with recruiting and compensating additional management personnel and
the purchase of information systems and equipment to manage our planned growth.
 
    EXPANDING OUR PHYSICAL FACILITIES.  Represents costs associated with
obtaining larger office space and possible additional offices to accommodate our
planned growth.
 
    WORKING CAPITAL AND GENERAL CORPORATE PURPOSES.  Represents funds that may
be used, among other things, to pay salaries, rent, trade payables, professional
fees and other operating expenses. If opportunities arise, these funds may be
used to acquire complementary businesses. We have no present understandings,
commitments or agreements with respect to any acquisition.
 
    The allocation of the net proceeds from this offering set forth above
represents our best estimate based upon our currently proposed plans and
assumptions relating to our operations and certain assumptions regarding general
economic conditions. If any of these factors change, we may find it necessary or
advisable to reallocate some of the proceeds within the above-described
categories or to use portions for other purposes.
 
    We anticipate that the net proceeds of this offering will be sufficient to
fund our operations and capital requirements for at least 12 months following
this offering. We cannot assure you, however, that such funds will not be
expended earlier due to unanticipated changes in economic conditions or other
circumstances that we cannot foresee. In the event our plans change or our
assumptions change or prove to be inaccurate, we could be required to seek
additional financing sooner than currently anticipated.
 
    Pending such uses, we intend to invest the net proceeds from this offering
in government securities and other short-term, investment-grade,
interest-bearing instruments.

                                    DILUTION
 
    Our net tangible book value as of March 31, 1999 was approximately $407,827,
or $0.16 per share of common stock. Net tangible book value per share represents
the amount of our total tangible assets reduced by the amount of our total
liabilities, divided by the number of shares of common stock outstanding. After
giving effect to our sale of 1,000,000 shares of common stock in this offering
(at an assumed initial public offering price of $7.50 per share) and after
deducting underwriting discounts and estimated offering expenses payable by us
and the application of the net proceeds, our net tangible book value as adjusted
as of March 31, 1999 would have been approximately $6,407,827, or $1.83 per
share. This represents an immediate increase in net tangible book value of $1.67
per share to our existing stockholders and an immediate dilution of $5.67 per
share to new investors purchasing shares of our common stock in this offering.
The following table illustrates the per share dilution:

    Assuming the exercise in full of the underwriters' over-allotment option,

approximately $7,420,327, or $2.03 per share, representing an immediate increase
in net tangible book value of $1.87 per share to our existing stockholders and
an immediate dilution in net tangible book value of $5.47 per share to new
investors.

                      MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
                OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
    THE FOLLOWING DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF OUR FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS
OF OPERATIONS SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH OUR FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND
NOTES THERETO AND THE OTHER FINANCIAL INFORMATION INCLUDED ELSEWHERE IN THIS
PROSPECTUS. IN ADDITION TO HISTORICAL INFORMATION, THIS MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION
AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND OTHER PARTS OF
THIS PROSPECTUS CONTAIN FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION THAT INVOLVE RISKS AND
UNCERTAINTIES. OUR ACTUAL RESULTS COULD DIFFER MATERIALLY FROM THOSE ANTICIPATED
BY SUCH FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION AS A RESULT OF CERTAIN FACTORS, INCLUDING
BUT NOT LIMITED TO, THOSE SET FORTH UNDER"RISK FACTORS" AND ELSEWHERE IN THIS
PROSPECTUS.
 
    We were incorporated in September 1997 and began generating revenue in
February 1998. We generate revenues from professional services performed for
end-user customers of our partners and associated reimbursable out-of-pocket
expenses. To date, our limited number of partners have consisted of Internet
software companies and we expect that Internet software companies will comprise
our partners for the foreseeable future. Our contractual relationships are with
our partners rather than their end-user customers. We perform services on a
time-and-materials basis and are reimbursed for expenses. We recognize revenue
for fees as services are performed and reimbursable expenses as incurred.
 
    We established our first partner relationship with Vignette in February 1998
and we have generated only limited revenues from our other partners. As of April
30, 1999, we had completed 15 projects for end-user customers of Vignette.
During the first four months of 1999, we established partner relationships with
three additional Internet software companies. Most of our revenues for the near
future are expected to be derived from Vignette with much smaller portions
derived from these newer partner relationships. As a result, our revenues and
operating results are subject to substantial variations based on Vignette's
sales and the frequency with which we are chosen to perform services for
Vignette's end-user customers. Our agreement with Vignette may be terminated at
any time by Vignette or us. The agreement does not obligate Vignette to use our
services for any minimum amount or at all, and Vignette may use the services of
our competitors. Nevertheless, we are restricted, for as long as the agreement
is in place, from performing services for Vignette's competitors.
 
    Our plan is to establish additional partner relationships with Internet
software companies and increase our number of information technology
professionals. In connection with our planned expansion, we expect to undertake
an expansive growth program following the offering and to incur substantial
expenses in anticipation of identifying and being retained by new partners.
Therefore, we expect that we will continue to incur losses through at least the
remainder of 1999. We plan to spend significant amounts on:
 
    - Recruiting, training and equipping information technology professionals;
 
    - Expanding our management and technology infrastructure;
 
    - Expanding our physical facilities; and
 
    - Working capital and general corporate purposes.
 
    Our number of information technology professionals increased from zero at
December 31, 1997 to eight at December 31, 1998 and to 12 at March 31, 1999. We
expect our number of information technology professionals to grow significantly
during the next 12 months. Mr. McDonald, our Chief Executive Officer, has not
been paid a salary to date and has agreed that he will not be paid a salary
until July 16, 1999. Our personnel costs represent a high percentage of our
operating expenses and are relatively fixed in advance of each quarter.
Accordingly, if revenues do not increase at a rate equal to expenses, we will
incur continuing losses and our business, financial condition, operating results
and liquidity could be materially and adversely affected.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
 
    THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, 1998 AND MARCH 31, 1999
 
    CONSULTING REVENUES.  Revenues increased from $39,000 for the three months
ended March 31, 1998 to $312,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1999. The
increase in revenues reflected the increase in the number of projects performed
and in the number of information technology professionals employed. We only
commenced operations during the first three months of 1998, and therefore, do
not believe that the periods are comparable. Our revenues for the three months
ended March 31, 1999 consisted of $266,000 in fees generated by our information
technology professionals and $46,000 of reimbursable expenses. During the period
ended March 31, 1999, all of our revenues came from Vignette.
 
    COST OF CONSULTING REVENUES.  Cost of revenues consist primarily of salaries
and benefits for information technology professionals assigned to projects,
training costs and reimbursable expenses. The number of our information
technology professionals increased from one for the three months ended March 31,
1998 to 12 for the three months ended March 31, 1999.
 
    SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE.  Selling, general and administrative
consist primarily of marketing activities to solicit partners, salaries and
benefits, travel costs and non-reimbursable expenses. Selling, general and
administrative expenses increased from $32,000 for the three months ended March
31, 1998 to $127,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1999. The increase in
selling, general and administrative expenses was related to our increased
marketing activities to solicit additional partners and to overhead costs
necessary to support the growth in our workforce. We expect these expenses to
increase in absolute dollar amounts in connection with our planned expansion.
These costs also increased due to an increase in an officer's salary from a
nominal amount to a higher level for the periods ended March 31, 1998 and 1999,
respectively.
 
    PERIOD FROM SEPTEMBER 17, 1997 (INCEPTION) THROUGH DECEMBER 31, 1997 AND
     FISCAL YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1998
 
    CONSULTING REVENUES.  We were incorporated in September 1997 and were in a
start-up phase stage during 1997. We generated no revenues during 1997 and,
therefore, management does not believe that 1997 is comparable to 1998. Our
revenues during 1998 were $825,000. Such revenues consisted of $693,000 in fees
and $132,000 of reimbursable out-of-pocket expenses. Ninety-one percent of such
revenues came from Vignette during 1998.
 
    COST OF CONSULTING REVENUES.  Cost of revenues increased from $0 to $401,000
for 1997 and 1998, respectively. The number of our information technology
professionals increased from zero on December 31, 1997 to eight on December 31,
1998. Cost of revenues for 1998 was approximately 49% of revenues. We expect
cost of revenues to increase in absolute dollar amounts as we hire additional
information technology professionals.
 
    SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE.  Selling, general and administrative
expenses were $19,000 and $357,000 for 1997 and 1998, respectively. The increase
in selling, general and administrative expenses was related to our increased
marketing activities to solicit additional partners and to overhead costs
necessary to support the growth in our workforce. We expect these expenses to
increase in absolute dollar amounts in connection with our planned expansion.
 
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
 
    Since inception, we have financed our operations primarily through equity
financings and bank borrowings. Through March 31, 1999, we have raised $400,000
from private sales of our common stock. We also have an agreement with a bank
which allows us to borrow up to $300,000 against our qualifying
 
                                       19
<PAGE>
accounts receivables. Borrowings under this agreement will bear interest at 15%
per annum. As of March 31, 1999, there was $173,487 borrowed under this loan
agreement.
 
    Our negative cash flow from operating activities was $56,000 in 1998 and
$100,000 for the three months ended March 31, 1999. The increasing negative cash
flow in 1999 resulted from higher expenses attributable to our continued
expansion of our operations, which were only slightly offset by a modest
increase in revenues and collection of accounts receivable.
 
    As of March 31, 1999, we had $97,000 in cash and working capital of
$372,000. We anticipate that the net proceeds of this offering will be
sufficient to fund our operations and capital requirements for at least 12
months following this offering. However, because of our expansion and growth
plans and the increased spending that will accompany any growth, we expect to
experience operating losses and negative cash flow from operations during 1999.
The timing and amount of our capital requirements will depend on a number of
factors, including demand for our services, the need to develop new partner
relationships, competitive pressures and the availability of complementary
businesses that we may wish to acquire.
 
    If our capital is insufficient to fund our activities in either the short or
long term, we may need to raise additional funds. If we raise additional funds
through the issuance of equity securities, our existing stockholders' percentage
ownership will be diluted. Such equity securities may also have rights superior
to our common stock. Additional debt or equity financing may not be available
when needed or on satisfactory terms. If adequate funds are not available on
acceptable terms, we may be unable to expand our services, respond to
competition or continue our operations.
 
YEAR 2000
 
    Many currently installed computer systems and software products are coded to
accept or recognize only two digit entries in the date code field. These systems
and software products will need to accept four digit entries to distinguish the
year 2000 from the year 1900. As a result, computer systems and software used by
many companies and governmental agencies may need to be upgraded to comply with
such Year 2000 requirements to avoid system failures or miscalculations causing
disruptions of normal business activities.
 
    STATE OF READINESS
 
    We have made a preliminary assessment of the Year 2000 readiness of our
operating, financial and administrative systems. The assessment plan consists
of:
 
    - determining our material hardware and software;
 
    - assessing repair or replacement requirements;
 
    - repairing or replacing non-compliant hardware and software; and
 
    - creating contingency plans in the event of Year 2000 failures.
 
    Since third parties developed the operating, financial and administrative
systems that we use, steps will be taken to ensure that these third-party
systems are Year 2000 compliant. We plan to confirm this compliance through a
combination of representations by these third parties of their products' Year
2000 compliance and specific testing of these systems. We plan to complete this
process prior to the end of the third quarter of 1999. Until such testing is
completed, we will not be able to completely evaluate whether our systems will
need to be revised or replaced.
 
    We have contacted our partners to determine the extent to which they are
vulnerable to Year 2000 risks. We have not made a full assessment of the extent
to which our partners might be vulnerable to Year 2000 risks.
 
                                       20
<PAGE>
    COSTS
 
    To date, we have incurred immaterial costs on Year 2000 compliance issues.
Most of our expenses are related to, and are expected to continue to be related
to, the operating costs associated with time spent by employees in the
evaluation process and Year 2000 compliance matters generally. Such expenses, if
higher than anticipated, could have a material adverse effect on our business,
results of operations and financial condition.
 
    YEAR 2000 RISKS
 
    We are not currently aware of any Year 2000 problems relating to our
operating, financial and administrative systems that would have a material
adverse effect on our business, results of operations or financial condition.
However, we may discover Year 2000 problems in the future or Year 2000 problems
may go undetected. Our failure to fix or replace these services on a timely
basis could result in lost revenues, increased operating costs or the loss of
customers and other business interruptions.
 
    If we fail to provide Year 2000 compliant solutions to the end-user
customers of our partners, we may incur reputational harm and legal liability.
Furthermore, if our partners fail to fix or replace any Year 2000 non-compliant
software products or their internal systems on a timely basis, it could result
in an indirect adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results
of operation.
 
    In addition, there can be no assurance that governmental agencies, utility
companies, third-party service providers and others outside of our control will
be Year 2000 compliant. The failure by such entities to be Year 2000 compliant
could result in a systematic failure beyond our control such as a transportation
systems, telecommunications or electrical failure, which could also prevent us
from delivering our services to our partners' end-user customers.

    YOU SHOULD READ THE FOLLOWING DESCRIPTION OF OUR BUSINESS IN CONJUNCTION
WITH THE INFORMATION INCLUDED ELSEWHERE IN THIS PROSPECTUS. THIS DESCRIPTION
CONTAINS CERTAIN FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS THAT INVOLVE RISKS AND
UNCERTAINTIES. OUR ACTUAL RESULTS COULD DIFFER SIGNIFICANTLY FROM THE RESULTS
DISCUSSED IN THE FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS AS A RESULT OF CERTAIN OF THE
FACTORS SET FORTH IN "RISK FACTORS" AND ELSEWHERE IN THIS PROSPECTUS.
 
OVERVIEW
 
    We provide virtual professional services organizations to Internet software
companies. A virtual professional services organization is a dedicated team of
information technology professionals that plans, manages and executes software
product implementations. This allows the Internet software companies we work
with to focus on their core business of improving and selling their software
without maintaining a large in-house professional services organization. We
believe this enables them to bring products to market faster and respond more
quickly to their end-user customer needs, which helps them achieve success in
the marketplace.
 
    We refer to the Internet software companies with which we work as
"partners." Our partners license their Internet software products to their
end-user customers. We then deploy a team that analyzes end-user customer goals
and requirements, defines the scope of the implementation project, designs a
project plan and installs, configures, implements and integrates our partner's
Internet software products. Our partners are responsible for billing and
collecting payments from their end-user customers and paying us for the services
performed by our professional services organizations.
 
    We established our first partner relationship with Vignette Corporation, an
Internet relationship management company, in February 1998. We have recently
established partner relationships with Interwoven, Inc., an enterprise Web
production company, Motive Communications, Inc., a support chain automation
company, and Ventix Systems Inc., a knowledge support company.
 
    Our strategy is to continue to build, through both internal growth and
acquisitions, a variety of teams of information technology professionals, each
of which is focused on the products of a particular emerging Internet software
company. These teams share services designed to support business development,
partner service, human resources, performance appraisals, financial reporting
and budgeting. Each team participates in a standardized program designed to
build and share institutional knowledge regarding the best practices for various
applications. We believe this strategy will enable us to maintain an
organization with minimal overhead that is focused and responsive to our
partners and their end-user customers, and capable of achieving significant
growth. In addition, we believe this structure will facilitate the efficient
acquisition of existing boutique professional services firms and their
integration into our business model.
 
INDUSTRY BACKGROUND AND LIMITATIONS OF TRADITIONAL APPROACHES
 
    Increasing numbers of individuals and businesses now use the Internet to
search for information, communicate with others, conduct business and seek
entertainment. With the recent explosion of Internet activity, an industry of
Internet software companies has emerged. These companies develop software to
perform or support Web-enabled interaction, whether between businesses or
between businesses and consumers. We focus on the Internet software market
because we believe it exhibits the high-growth, intense competition and short
product lifecycles that create a demand for our services. Forrester Research
estimates that the market for Internet professional services will grow from $5.4
billion in 1998 to $32.7 billion in 2002, representing a compound annual growth
rate of 56.9%.
 
    Internet software includes software designed to facilitate, among others,
the following tasks:
 
    - CUSTOMER RELATIONSHIP MANAGEMENT--manages the relationship that a consumer
      has with a business over the Internet.
 
                                       22
<PAGE>
    - E-COMMERCE--allows people to purchase goods and services over the
      Internet.
 
    - SITE ANALYSIS--collects and analyzes customer interactions with the
      Internet in order to customize the behavior of the Web-site the next time
      the customer visits.
 
    - MARKETING AUTOMATION--enables marketing campaigns over the Internet (or
      through e-mail) to attract or retain potential customers to a Web site.
 
    - KNOWLEDGE MANAGEMENT--manages and presents business knowledge to Internet
      users.
 
    - CUSTOMER SUPPORT--allows Internet users to support themselves and resolve
      their own issues by presenting knowledge and information to them in text,
      video and audio.
 
    - E-MAIL MANAGEMENT--manages high volume e-mail traffic.
 
    - E-BILLING MANAGEMENT--presents bills to customers through the Internet,
      thereby decreasing billing costs and improving cash management.
 
    Internet software requires substantial configuration in order for the user
to realize its full benefits because each business user has its own unique
requirements, infrastructure and business processes. Emerging Internet software
companies which are focused on product innovation may not be inclined or able to
devote resources to integrate and implement their software with a customer's
existing computer systems and software. To address the need to have their
products properly implemented, software companies have tried several
alternatives:
 
    - hire and maintain an in-house professional services organization;
 
    - employ various individual independent contractors; and
 
    - engage large consulting firms.
 
    These alternatives present a variety of problems. Hiring and maintaining an
in-house staff of information technology professionals requires a significant
investment of time and money. It also increases a company's fixed personnel
costs so that any downturn in the software company's business will result in
greater losses because these costs cannot be reduced to match revenues in the
short term. Managing a group of independent contractors also requires a
significant amount of time and results may be unpredictable. Large consulting
firms may be expensive and we believe, may only find it attractive to provide
services when technology has become widely used. Furthermore, we believe that
large consulting firms may work with several competing software companies,
raising concerns over loyalty and confidentiality.
 
SOLUTION
 
    We believe that the growing markets for Internet software combined with the
limitations of these alternatives combine to create a significant market
opportunity. Our virtual professional services organizations provide the
following advantages to our partners:
 
    - REDUCED COSTS. Each of our partners may save money by minimizing the size
      of its in-house professional services organization. We expect to be able
      to manage fluctuations in services demand associated with any one partner
      if we can develop a portfolio of Internet software partners. We can
      reallocate our information technology professionals as our partners' needs
      change.
 
    - ALIGNED INCENTIVES. We intend to invest a significant amount of time in
      each of our partners and, by virtue of our assignments being likely to
      increase if their business grows, we will have a vested interest in their
      success. We have agreed in the past and may agree in the future to not
      work for our partners' competitors.
 
    - DEDICATED INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY PROFESSIONALS. We intend to dedicate a
      team of our information technology professionals to master each particular
      partner's software products, enabling them to
 
                                       23
<PAGE>
      provide higher quality of service to our partners and their end-user
      customers. If we can provide services across a spectrum of software
      customers, we can harvest best practices knowledge, build development
      frameworks to increase productivity, generate a project delivery
      methodology and create a learning organization in a way that a group of
      unaffiliated independent contractors cannot.
 
    - FOCUS ON CORE BUSINESS. Our partners can remain focused on their core
      business of developing and selling high-quality software, while leveraging
      a small, focused internal services organization across more customers with
      better success than building and maintaining a large internal full-time
      staff.
 
STRATEGY
 
    Our objective is to become the leading provider of virtual professional
service organizations to rapidly growing Internet software companies. To achieve
this objective, our strategy is to:
 
    FOCUS ON HIGH-GROWTH, SERVICE-INTENSIVE SEGMENTS OF THE INTERNET SOFTWARE
     MARKET
 
    We view Internet software as the most attractive sector of the software
industry. Within the Internet software market, we will try to identify segments
that we believe will grow rapidly and will require significant services. We
focus on Internet software so that we can more readily acquire leading-edge
specialized skills that are in high demand in the marketplace. We intend to
leverage our accumulated technical talent and stay current on the best
methodology for solving problems that are consistently encountered in the
Internet software arena.
 
    ESTABLISH PARTNER RELATIONSHIPS WITH EMERGING LEADERS IN IDENTIFIED
     HIGH-GROWTH SEGMENTS
 
    Once we identify an attractive segment of the Internet software market, we
will focus on establishing a partner relationship with an emerging leader in
that segment. We will initially identify potential partners before their
products are accepted as mainstream. If any partner's products meet with
widespread success, we will have the benefit of a pre-existing dedicated team,
established working relationship and strong track record of success. We believe
these factors will allow us to compete effectively with larger consulting firms.
 
    BUILD AND ACQUIRE A PORTFOLIO OF HIGH-GROWTH, LOW OVERHEAD DEDICATED
     BOUTIQUE VIRTUAL PROFESSIONAL SERVICES ORGANIZATIONS
 
    Our strategy is to build, through both internal growth and acquisitions, a
portfolio of boutique virtual professional services organizations, each
dedicated to deploying the products of a particular Internet software partner.
We believe that we may improve the performance of any acquired companies by
relieving them of many of the administrative burdens of running their business,
such as human resources, financial reporting and budgeting, performance
appraisals and knowledge sharing.
 
    BUILD A NATIONAL INFRASTRUCTURE TO LEVERAGE ECONOMIES OF SCALE
 
    Each virtual professional services organization will utilize the services of
the centralized corporate support structure. This will allow our information
technology professionals to remain focused on generating revenue. These
economies of scale include centrally-provided services such as business
development programs, partner support assistance, human resources, financial
reporting and budgeting, performance appraisals and a standardized program to
design, build and share institutional knowledge regarding the best practices for
various applications.
 
SERVICES AND SUPPORT
 
    Our partners license their Internet software products to their end-user
customers. We then deploy a team that analyzes the end-user customer goals and
requirements, defines the scope of the implementation
 
                                       24
<PAGE>
project, designs a project plan and installs, configures, implements and
integrates our partner's Internet software products. In connection with
providing our services, we may perform the following activities:
 
    - PROJECT SCOPING--define end-user customer's broad goals for the software.
 
    - PROJECT DEFINITION--document in detail the specific business requirements.
 
    - GAP ANALYSIS--determine the gap between what our partner's software
      product does when installed and the end-user customer's specific business
      requirements.
 
    - PROJECT PLANNING--create a detailed work plan that defines specific tasks,
      timelines, human resources, costs and contingencies.
 
    - IMPLEMENTATION--configure our partner's software and write new software
      programs to adapt our partner's software to the end-user customer's needs.
 
    - COMPONENT TESTING--test the installed software at the individual component
      level.
 
    - INTEGRATION--write new software programs to allow our partner's software
      to communicate with the end-user customer's existing information system.
 
    - SYSTEM TESTING--test the installed software on a system-wide level.
 
    - TRAINING--teach the end-user customer's personnel how to operate our
      partner's software.
 
    - MONITORING--monitor the performance of the software over the initial
      period following deployment.
 
    In addition to implementation and integration services, we also provide
formal feedback to our partners. This enables them to improve their products so
they may be deployed more rapidly and with higher quality.
 
OUR PARTNERS
 
    We established our first partner relationship with Vignette in April 1998.
Vignette is a leading provider of Internet relationship management software
designed to enable businesses to create interactive Web-sites. When retained by
Vignette, we adapt Vignette's software to its end-user customer's needs.
Vignette works with a variety of partners worldwide in the areas of systems
integration, consulting, reselling and technology integration. As of April 30,
1999, we have completed 15 projects for end-user customers of Vignette. From
inception through March 31, 1999, Vignette has accounted for 93% of our revenue.
 
    Our arrangement with Vignette allows Vignette to issue assignment orders to
us, but they are not committed to use our services. We are paid for time and
materials and are reimbursed for expenses. The agreement may be terminated by
Vignette or us at any time upon minimal notice. Upon termination, we remain
obligated to complete any unfinished assignments. The agreement also provides
that we will not work for Vignette's competitors and neither party may hire the
other party's employees. Our chairman of the board, Steven G. Papermaster, sits
on the board of directors of Vignette.
 
    We have recently added three additional partners: Motive Software, a
provider of support chain automation, Interwoven, a provider of enterprise web
production software and Ventix, a provider of knowledge support software. Our
partner relationships with these three companies have only recently begun to
generate revenues. Our contracts with each of these companies is similar to our
contract with Vignette and none of these companies is obligated to use our
services.
 
SALES AND MARKETING
 
    Since our partners sell their software and our services to their end-user
customers, our sales and marketing consists of soliciting new partners and
expanding our relationships with existing partners. Our
 
                                       25
<PAGE>
senior management identifies attractive segments of the Internet software market
and evaluates the emerging companies competing in that segment. Once we have
identified a company that we believe will become a market leader within that
segment, our senior management attempts to establish a partner relationship.
Once a partner relationship is established, we assign a Relationship Director to
interact with that partner. A Relationship Director is responsible for
coordinating projects on behalf of a partner and convincing a partner to use our
services more often.
 
    We have two people involved in sales and marketing on a full-time basis. We
typically encounter sales cycles ranging from two to six months from our initial
meeting with a prospective partner. We also market our services by establishing
informal relationships with venture capital firms, accounting firms, law firms
and other service providers that work with emerging Internet software companies.
These relationships help us identify and form partner relationships with
emerging companies.
 
COMPETITION
 
    We compete in the Internet professional services market which is relatively
new and intensely competitive. We expect competition to intensify as the market
further develops and evolves. The principal competitive factors in our market
include quality of service, speed of implementation, price and reputation. We
believe that our competitors fall into several categories, including:
 
    - Systems integrators, such as Cambridge Technology Partners, Sapient
      Corporation, Scient Corporation and Viant Corporation;
 
    - Large consulting firms, such as Andersen Consulting and the consulting
      arms of the large accounting firms;
 
    - Outsourcing firms, such as Computer Sciences Corporation, Electronic Data
      Systems and Perot Systems;
 
    - Information technology staffing firms, such as Keane, Inc. and Renaissance
      Worldwide;
 
    - Internet service firms, such as Proxicom, Inc. and USWeb Corporation; and
 
    - In-house information technology departments of our current and potential
      partners.
 
    In addition, there are relatively low barriers to entry into this market and
we expect to face additional competition from new entrants.
 
    Most of our competitors have longer operating histories, larger client
bases, greater name recognition and possess significantly greater financial,
technical and marketing resources than we do. As a result, our competitors may
be able to better attract Internet software companies to which we market our
services and adapt more quickly to new technologies or evolving customer
requirements. Many competitive factors are outside of our control, such as the
ability of our competitors to hire, retain and motivate qualified information
technology professionals.
 
EMPLOYEES
 
    Our most important assets are our information technology professionals that
perform services for our partners' end-customers. We are dedicated to hiring,
developing and retaining these individuals. Because our partners tend to be
emerging leaders, our information technology professionals have an opportunity
to work with the latest in cutting-edge information technology. This helps us
recruit superior professionals, who actively seek these types of assignments. We
foster professional development by training our information technology
professionals in the skills critical to successful consulting engagements such
as implementation methodology and project management. We hire information
technology professionals based upon their skills and abilities, as opposed to
proximity to end-user customers. We only require that
 
                                       26
<PAGE>
our professionals live close to major metropolitan airports. This allows us to
hire talented people from smaller markets and gives them project opportunities
that their home city may not provide.
 
    Significant competition exists for employees with the skills required to
perform the services we offer. Qualified information technology professionals
are in great demand and are likely to remain a limited resource for the
foreseeable future.
 
    As of May 1, 1999, we had 19 full-time employees, 9 of whom are based at our
Austin, Texas headquarters. Of our total employees, 12 were information
technology professionals and 7 were involved in sales, general administration
and marketing. Our employees are not represented by any collective bargaining
unit, and we have never experienced a work stoppage. We believe our employee
relations are good.
 
PROPERTIES
 
    We lease approximately 950 square feet of office space in Austin, Texas from
Powershift Ventures, LLC, under a month to month lease. The rent is currently
$2,200 per month. Our Chairman of the Board, Steven G. Papermaster, is the
president and a beneficial owner of Powershift Ventures, LLC.
 
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
 
    We are not involved in any material legal proceedings.

BOARD COMPOSITION AND COMMITTEES
 
    We currently have four directors, each serving a term until the next annual
meeting of stockholders. We expect to have two additional individuals serving as
directors within a short period of time. These two directors will qualify as
outside directors.
 
    Gilford Securities Incorporated may designate one person for election to our
board for the next three years. Gilford has not yet designated any persons to
the board. In the event Gilford does not elect to designate a board nominee,
then Gilford may designate one person to attend meetings of our board as an
observer during such three year period.
 
    Upon appointment of these two additional directors, we will establish a
compensation committee and an audit committee. The compensation committee will
make recommendations to the board concerning salaries and incentive compensation
for our officers and employees and administer our 1999 Stock Option/ Stock
Issuance Plan. The audit committee will make recommendations to the board of
directors regarding the selection of independent auditors, review the results
and scope of audits and other accounting-related services and reviews and
evaluate our internal control functions. At each annual meeting of stockholders,
six directors will be elected by the holders of the common stock, with the six
nominees receiving the greatest number of votes serving as directors.
 
DIRECTOR COMPENSATION
 
    Directors receive no cash remuneration for serving on the board of directors
but are reimbursed for reasonable expenses incurred by them in attending board
and committee meetings.
 
LIMITATION OF LIABILITY AND INDEMNIFICATION MATTERS
 
    Our bylaws provide for mandatory indemnification of directors and officers
to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law. Prior to consummation of this
offering, we intend to obtain additional directors' and officers' liability
insurance and expect to enter into indemnity agreements with all of our
directors and executive officers. In addition, our certificate of incorporation
limits the liability of our directors to us or to our stockholders for breaches
of the directors' fiduciary duties to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware
law.

401(k) PROFIT SHARING PLAN
 
    We have adopted a 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan. Our 401(k) plan is available
to all employees who have attained age 21. An employee may contribute, on a
pre-tax basis, up to 20% of his or her wages, subject to limitations specified
under the Internal Revenue Code. Under the terms of our 401(k) plan, we may make
a discretionary matching contribution equal to a percentage of the employee's
contribution to the 401(k) Profit Sharing Plan and a discretionary amount
determined annually by us and divided among eligible participants based upon an
employee's annual compensation in relation to the aggregate annual compensation
of all eligible participants. Contributions are allocated to each employee's
individual account and are, at the employee's election, invested in one, all or
some combination of the investment funds available under the 401(k) Profit
Sharing Plan. Employee contributions are fully vested and non-forfeitable. Any
matching or discretionary contributions vest 25% for each year of service. To
date, we have not made any matching contributions under the 401(k) Profit
Sharing Plan.
 
1999 STOCK OPTION/STOCK ISSUANCE PLAN
 
    Our 1999 Stock Option/Stock Issuance Plan was adopted by the board of
directors and approved by our stockholders on May 3, 1999. The plan became
effective upon its adoption by the board.
 
    We have reserved 279,666 shares of our common stock for issuance under the
1999 Stock Option/ Stock Issuance Plan. However, in no event may any one
participant in the 1999 Stock Option/Stock Issuance Plan receive option grants
or direct stock issuances for more than 75,000 shares in the aggregate per
calendar year.
 
    The 1999 Stock Option/Stock Issuance Plan has three separate programs: (i)
the discretionary option grant program under which eligible individuals in our
employ or service (including officers, non-employee
 
                                       30
<PAGE>
board members and consultants) may be granted options to purchase shares of our
common stock, (ii) the stock issuance program under which such individuals may
be issued shares of common stock directly, through the purchase of such shares
or as a bonus tied to the performance of services and (iii) the automatic option
grant program under which option grants will automatically be made at periodic
intervals to eligible non-employee board members.
 
    The discretionary option grant and stock issuance programs will be
administered by the compensation committee of our board of directors. This
committee will determine which eligible individuals are to receive option grants
or stock issuances, the time or times when such option grants or stock issuances
are to be made, the number of shares subject to each such grant or issuance, the
exercise or purchase price for each such grant or issuance, the status of any
granted option as either an incentive stock option or a non-statutory stock
option under the federal tax laws, the vesting schedule to be in effect for the
option grant or stock issuance and the maximum term for which any granted option
is to remain outstanding. Neither the compensation committee nor the board will
exercise any administrative discretion with respect to option grants made under
the automatic option grant program for the non-employee board members.
 
    The exercise price for the options may be paid in cash or in shares of our
common stock valued at fair market value on the exercise date. The option may
also be exercised through a same-day sale program without any cash outlay by the
optionee. In addition, the compensation committee may allow a participant to pay
the option exercise price or direct issue price (and any associated withholding
taxes incurred in connection with the acquisition of shares) with a
full-recourse, interest-bearing promissory note.
 
    In the event that we are acquired, whether by merger or asset sale or
board-approved sale by the stockholders of more than 50% of our voting stock,
each outstanding option under the discretionary option grant program which is
not to be assumed by the successor corporation or otherwise continued will
automatically accelerate in full, and all unvested shares under the
discretionary option grant and stock issuance programs will immediately vest,
except to the extent our repurchase rights with respect to those shares are to
be assigned to the successor corporation or otherwise continued in effect. The
compensation committee may grant options under the discretionary option grant
program which will accelerate in the acquisition even if the options are assumed
or which will accelerate if the optionee's service is subsequently terminated.
The compensation committee may grant options and issue shares which accelerate
in connection with a hostile change in control effected through a successful
tender offer for more than 50% of our outstanding voting stock or by proxy
contest for the election of board members) or the options and shares may
accelerate upon a subsequent termination of the individual's service.
 
    Stock appreciation rights may be issued under the discretionary option grant
program which will provide the holders with the election to surrender their
outstanding options for an appreciation distribution from us equal to the fair
market value of the vested shares subject to the surrendered option less the
aggregate exercise price payable for such shares. Such appreciation distribution
may be made in cash or in shares of our common stock.
 
    The compensation committee has the authority to cancel outstanding options
under the discretionary option grant in return for the grant of new options for
the same or different number of option shares with an exercise price per share
based upon the fair market value of the common stock on the new grant date.
 
    Under the automatic option grant program, each individual who first joins
our board of directors after the effective date of this offering as a
non-employee board member will automatically be granted an option for 10,000
shares of our common stock at the time of his or her commencement of board
service. In addition, on the date of each annual stockholders meeting, beginning
with the 2000 meeting, each individual who is to continue to serve as a
non-employee board member and was not a member of our board prior to this
offering will receive an option grant to purchase 5,000 shares of our common
stock, provided he or she has served on the board at least six months. Each of
these options will be fully-vested upon grant.
 
                                       31
<PAGE>
    Limited stock appreciation rights will automatically be included as part of
each grant made under the automatic option grant program and may be granted to
one or more officers as part of their option grants under the discretionary
option grant program. Options with such a limited stock appreciation right may
be surrendered to us upon the successful completion of a hostile tender offer
for more than 50% of our outstanding voting stock. In return for the surrendered
option, the optionee will be entitled to a cash distribution from us in an
amount per surrendered option share equal to the highest price per share of
common stock paid in connection with the tender offer less the exercise price
payable for such share.
 
    The board may amend of modify the 1999 Stock Option/Stock Issuance Plan at
any time, subject to any required stockholder approval. The 1999 Stock
Option/Stock Issuance Plan will terminate no later than May 2, 2009.
 
OTHER STOCK OPTION GRANTS
 
    Prior to the adoption of our 1999 Stock Option/Stock Issuance Plan, we
granted options to purchase shares of our common stock to employees and a
recruiting consultant. None of these options have been exercised, and options
are currently outstanding to purchase 420,334 shares of our common stock at
exercise prices ranging from $0.05 to $4.00 per share.
 
    Mr. Hinners, our Chief Financial Officer, was granted an option to purchase
60,000 shares of our common stock on January 1, 1999 at an exercise price of
$0.50 per share in connection with consulting services performed for us during
1998. This option may be exercised in installments: for 20,000 shares on January
1, 2000 and for an additional 5,000 shares at the end of each three-month period
following January 1, 2000.

                           DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES
 
    We are authorized to issue 20,000,000 shares of common stock, par value
$0.001 per share, and 5,000,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.001 per
share. As of the date of this prospectus, we have outstanding 2,500,000 shares
of common stock owned by approximately 17 holders of record.
 
                                       34
<PAGE>
COMMON STOCK
 
    The holders of our common stock are entitled to one vote for each share held
of record in the election of directors and in all other matters to be voted on
by the stockholders. There is no cumulative voting with respect to the election
of directors. As a result, the holders of more than 50 percent of the shares
voting for the election of directors can elect all of the directors. Holders of
common stock are entitled:
 
    - to receive any dividends as may be declared by the board of directors out
      of funds legally available for such purpose; and
 
    - in the event of our liquidation, dissolution, or winding up, to share
      ratably in all assets remaining after payment of liabilities and after
      provision has been made for each class of stock, if any, having preference
      over the common stock.
 
    All of the outstanding shares of common stock are, and the shares of common
stock offered through this prospectus will be, upon issuance and sale, validly
issued, fully paid and nonassessable. Holders of our common stock have no
preemptive right to subscribe for or purchase additional shares of any class of
our capital stock.
 
PREFERRED STOCK
 
    The board of directors has the authority, within the limitations stated in
our certificate of incorporation, to provide by resolution for the issuance of
shares of preferred stock, in one or more classes or series, and to fix the
rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions thereof, including dividend
rights, conversion rights, voting rights, terms of redemption, liquidation
preferences and the number of shares constituting any series or the designation
of such series. The issuance of preferred stock could have the effect of
decreasing the market price of our common stock and could adversely affect the
voting and other rights of the holders of our common stock.
 
TRANSFER AGENT AND REGISTRAR
 
    The transfer agent and registrar for the common stock is Continental Stock
Transfer and Trust Company, 2 Broadway, New York, New York 10004.
 
REPORTS TO STOCKHOLDERS
 
    We have agreed, subject to the sale of the shares of common stock in this
offering, that on or before the date of this prospectus we will register our
common stock under the provisions of Section 12(g) of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934 and we will use our best efforts to maintain registration. Such
registration will require us to comply with periodic reporting, proxy
solicitation and certain other requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934.
 
SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE
 
    Upon the consummation of this offering and assuming no exercise of
outstanding options and warrants, we will have 3,500,000 shares of common stock
outstanding, of which the 1,000,000 shares offered hereby will be freely
tradable without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act,
except for any shares purchased by an "affiliate," which will be subject to the
resale limitations of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act.
 
    All of the remaining 2,500,000 shares of common stock currently outstanding
are "restricted securities" or owned by "affiliates," as those terms are defined
in Rule 144, and may not be sold publicly unless they are registered under the
Securities Act or are sold pursuant to Rule 144 or another exemption from
registration. The 2,500,000 restricted shares will be eligible for sale, without
registration, under Rule 144, 90 days following the date of this prospectus.
 
                                       35
<PAGE>
LOCKUP AGREEMENT
 
    Holders of all of the 2,500,000 outstanding shares of common stock have
agreed for a period of 12 months following the date of this prospectus that,
without the representative's prior written consent, they shall not sell or
otherwise dispose of any shares of common stock in any public market transaction
including pursuant to Rule 144.
 
RULE 144
 
    Generally, under Rule 144 as currently in effect, subject to the
satisfaction of certain other conditions, a person, including an affiliate of
ours or persons whose shares are aggregated with an affiliate, who has owned
restricted shares of common stock beneficially for at least one year, is
entitled to sell, within any three-month period, a number of shares that does
not exceed the greater of:
 
    - 1% of our then outstanding shares of common stock; or
 
    - the average weekly trading volume of shares of our common stock during the
      four calendar weeks preceding such sale.
 
RULE 144(K)
 
    A person who is not an affiliate, has not been an affiliate within three
months prior to sale, and has beneficially owned the restricted shares for at
least two years, is entitled to sell such shares under Rule 144(k) without
regard to any of the limitations described above.
 
NO PRIOR MARKET
 
    Prior to this offering, there has been no market for our common stock and no
prediction can be made as to the effect, if any, that market sales of shares of
common stock or the availability of such shares for sale will have on the market
prices of our common stock prevailing from time to time. Nevertheless, the
possibility that substantial amounts of common stock may be sold in the public
market may adversely affect prevailing market prices for our common stock and
could impair our ability to raise capital through the sale of our equity
securities.
 
CERTAIN CHARTER AND BYLAWS PROVISIONS AND DELAWARE ANTI-TAKEOVER STATUTE
 
    We are subject to Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law
regulating corporate takeovers. This section prevents Delaware corporations from
engaging under certain circumstances, in a "business combination," which
includes a merger or sale of more than 10% of the corporation's assets, with any
"interested stockholder," or a stockholder who owns 15% or more of the
corporation's outstanding voting stock, as well as affiliates and associates of
any such persons, for three years following the date such stockholder became an
"interested stockholder," unless:
 
    - the transaction in which such stockholder became an "interested
      stockholder" is approved by the board of directors prior to the date the
      "interested stockholder" attained such status;
 
    - upon consummation of the transaction that resulted in the stockholder
      becoming an interested stockholder, the interested stockholder owned at
      least 85% of the voting stock of the corporation outstanding at the time
      the transaction commenced, excluding those shares owned by persons who are
      directors and also officers; or
 
    - on or after the date the business combination is approved by the board of
      directors and authorized at an annual or special meeting of stockholders
      by the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the outstanding voting
      stock that is not owned by the interested stockholder.
 
                                       36
<PAGE>
    Our certificate of incorporation eliminates the right of stockholders to act
by written consent without a meeting, and our bylaws eliminate the right of
stockholders to call special meetings of stockholders. Our certificate of
incorporation and bylaws do not provide for cumulative voting in the election of
directors. The authorization of undesignated preferred stock makes it possible
for the board of directors to issue preferred stock with voting or other rights
or preferences that could impede the success of any attempt to effect a change
in our control. These and other provisions may have the effect of deferring
hostile takeovers or delaying changes in our control or management.

    We and the underwriters named below have entered into an underwriting
agreement with respect to the shares being offered. Subject to certain
conditions, each underwriter has severally agreed to purchase the number of

Total......................................................................       1,000,000
</TABLE>
 
    The underwriters are committed to purchase all of the shares of common stock
offered by us if any shares are purchased.
 
    The underwriters initially will offer the common stock to the public at the
price specified on the cover page of this prospectus. The underwriters may allow
to some dealers a concession of not more than $        per share of common
stock. The underwriters also may allow, and any other dealers may re-allow, a
concession of not more than $        per share of common stock to some other
dealers. If all the shares are not sold at the initial public offering price,
the underwriters may change the offering price and other selling terms.
 
    If the underwriters sell more shares than the total number set forth in the
table above, the underwriters have an option to buy up to an additional 150,000
shares from us to cover such sales at the initial public offering price less the
underwriting discounts and non-accountable expense allowance. If any shares are
purchased pursuant to this option, the underwriters will severally purchase
shares in approximately the same proportion as set forth above.
 
    We have agreed to indemnify the underwriters against certain liabilities,
including liabilities under the Securities Act. We have also agreed to pay to
the representative a non-accountable expense allowance equal to three percent of
the gross proceeds derived from the sale of the shares of common stock
underwritten, $50,000 of which has been paid to date.
 
    We will apply to list the common stock on the Nasdaq SmallCap Market under
the symbol PRFT.
 
    In connection with this offering, the underwriters may purchase and sell
shares of common stock in the open market. These transactions may include short
sales, stabilizing transactions and purchases to cover positions created by
short sales. Short sales involve the sale by the underwriters of a greater
number of shares than they are required to purchase in this offering.
Stabilizing transactions consist of certain bids or purchases made for the
purpose of preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of the common
stock while this offering is in progress.
 
    The underwriters also may impose a penalty bid. This occurs when a
particular underwriter repays to the underwriters a portion of the underwriting
discount received by it because the representatives have repurchased shares sold
by or for the account of such underwriter in stabilizing or short covering
transactions.
 
    These activities by the underwriters may stabilize, maintain or otherwise
affect the market price of the common stock. As a result, the price of the
common stock may be higher than the price that otherwise might exist in the open
market. If these activities are commenced, they may be discontinued by the
underwriters at any time. These transactions may be effected on the Nasdaq
SmallCap Market, in the over-the-counter market or otherwise.
 
                                       38
<PAGE>
    The underwriters do not expect sales to discretionary accounts to exceed
five percent of the total number of shares offered.
 
    We, along with our directors, officers and stockholders have agreed with the
underwriters not to dispose of or hedge any common stock or securities
convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for shares of common stock
during the period from the date of this prospectus continuing through the date
12 months after the date of this prospectus, without the prior written consent
of the representative. Our officers and directors and the holders of all of our
shares of common stock have agreed that, for 12 months following the effective
date of the registration statement, any sales of our securities shall be made
through the representative in accordance with its customary brokerage practices
either on a principal or agency basis. An appropriate legend shall be marked on
the face of the certificates representing all such securities.
 
    We have agreed to issue and sell to the representative and/or its designees,
for nominal consideration, five- year warrants to purchase 100,000 shares of
common stock. The representative's warrants are exercisable for a period of four
years commencing one year after the date of this prospectus, at a price equal to
120% of the initial public offering price of the common stock. The
representative's warrants are restricted from sale, transfer, assignment or
hypothecation for a period of 12 months from the date of this prospectus, except
to officers of the representative. The representative's warrants contain
anti-dilution provisions providing for adjustments of the number of shares of
common stock issuable on exercise and the exercise price upon the occurrence of
some events, including stock dividends, stock splits, mergers, acquisitions and
recapitalization. The representative's warrants grant to the holders of the
warrants and to the holders of the underlying securities the right to register
the securities underlying the representative's warrants.
 
    We have an agreement with the underwriters that we will not grant options to
purchase our common stock at an exercise price below the fair market value on
the date of grant.
 
    We have agreed that for three years from the effective date of the
registration statement, the representative may designate one person for election
to our board of directors. In the event that the representative elects not to
designate one person for election to the board of directors, then it may
designate one person to attend all meetings of the board of directors for a
period of five years. We have also agreed to reimburse the representative's
designee for all out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with the
designees' attendance at meetings of the board of directors.
 
    Prior to this offering, there has been no public market for our common
stock. The initial public offering price of the common stock will be determined
by negotiation between us and the representatives. Among the factors to be
considered in determining such prices and terms, will be the prevailing market
conditions, including the history of and the prospects for the industry in which
we compete, an assessment of our management, our prospects and our capital
structure. The offering price does not necessarily bear any relationship to our
assets, results of operations or net worth.
 
                                 LEGAL MATTERS
 
    The validity of the common stock offered hereby will be passed upon for
Perficient by Brobeck, Phleger & Harrison LLP, Austin, Texas. Certain legal
matters in connection with this offering will be passed upon for the
Underwriters by Gibbons, Del Deo, Dolan, Griffinger & Vecchione, New York, New
York.

                         REPORT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
 
The Board of Directors
Perficient, Inc.
 
    We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Perficient, Inc. (the
"Company"), as of December 31, 1997 and 1998, and the related statements of
operations, stockholders' equity and cash flows for the period from September
17, 1997 (Inception) through December 31, 1997 and for the year ended December
31, 1998. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's
management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits.
 
    We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing
standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material
misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting
the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
 
    In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly,
in all material respects, the financial position of Perficient, Inc. at December
31, 1997 and 1998, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the
period from September 17, 1997 (Inception) through December 31, 1997 and for the
year ended December 31, 1998, in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

                         NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
 
1. BUSINESS OVERVIEW
 
    Perficient, Inc. (the "Company") works with Internet software companies by
providing them a professional services organization to implement and integrate
the software products. The Company effectively operates as an internal services
organization. The Company was incorporated on September 17, 1997 in Texas. The
Company began operations in 1997 and is structured as a "C" corporation.
Subsequent to December 31, 1998 the Company reincorporated in Delaware (see Note
10).
 
2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
UNAUDITED INTERIM INFORMATION
 
    The accompanying financial information as of March 31, 1999 and for the
three month period then ended has been prepared by the Company without an audit,
pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission.
The financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring
accruals which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to fairly present
such information in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.
 
USE OF ESTIMATES
 
    The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and
accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
REVENUE RECOGNITION
 
    Consulting revenues are comprised of revenues from consulting fees
recognized on a time and material basis as performed.
 
ADVERTISING EXPENSE
 
    The cost of advertising is expensed as incurred. Advertising cost for the
period from September 17, 1997 to December 31, 1997 and for the year ended
December 31, 1998 was immaterial to the financial statements.
 
COMPREHENSIVE INCOME
 
    In June 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued
Statement of Financial Accounting Standard ("SFAS") 130, REPORTING COMPREHENSIVE
INCOME. The Company adopted SFAS 130 during the year ended December 31, 1998.
There was no impact to the Company as a result of the adoption of SFAS 130, as
there was no difference between net income and comprehensive income.
 
PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT
 
    Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation on property and
equipment is computed using the straight-line method over the estimated useful
lives, which is three years.
 
SEGMENTS
 
    Effective January 1, 1998, the Company adopted the FASB's SFAS No. 131,
DISCLOSURES ABOUT SEGMENTS OF AN ENTERPRISE AND RELATED INFORMATION. The
adoption of SFAS 131 did not have a significant

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
effect on the disclosure of segment information as the Company continues to
consider its business activities as a single segment.
 
    The Company has elected to follow Accounting Principles Board ("APB") 25,
ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK ISSUED TO EMPLOYEES, and related interpretations in
accounting for its employees stock options. Under APB 25, because the exercise
price of the Company's employee stock options equals the estimated market price
of the underlying stock on the date of grant, no compensation expense is
recognized.
 
3. NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE
 
    The Company follows the provisions of SFAS No. 128, EARNINGS PER SHARE.
Basic net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss)
available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of common shares
outstanding during the period. Net income per share, assuming dilution, includes
the effect of dilutive potential common stock issuable upon exercise of stock
options using the treasury stock method.
 
    Diluted net loss per share has not been presented for the period from
September 17, 1997 to December 31, 1997, as the effect of the assumed exercise
of stock options is antidilutive due to the Company's net loss.
 
    Computations of the net income (loss) per share for the period from
September 17, 1997 (Inception) through December 31, 1997 and for the year ended
December 31, 1998 are as follows:

4. CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK AND SIGNIFICANT CUSTOMERS
 
    Cash and accounts receivable potentially expose the Company to
concentrations of credit risk, as defined by SFAS 105, DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION
ABOUT FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE-SHEET RISK AND FINANCIAL
INSTRUMENTS WITH CONCENTRATIONS OF CREDIT RISK. Excess cash is placed with
highly rated financial institutions. The Company provides credit, in the normal
course of business, to its customers. The Company performs ongoing credit
evaluations of its customers and maintains allowances for potential credit
losses. The Company generally requires certain up-front payments from customers,
and customers can be denied access to services in the event of non-payment. One
customer accounted for approximately 100% of accounts receivable and 91% of
revenues at December 31, 1998 and for the year then ended, respectively.
 
5. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN
 
    During 1998, the Company created a qualified 401(k) profit sharing plan
available to full-time employees who meet the plan's eligibility requirements.
This defined contribution plan permits employees to make contributions up to
maximum limits allowed by Internal Revenue Code. The Company, at its discretion,
matches a portion of the employee's contribution under a predetermined formula
based on the level of contribution and years of vesting services. No
contributions were made to the plan during 1998. The Company's related costs for
the plan during 1998 was $1,750.
 
6. STOCK OPTIONS
 
    Pro forma information regarding net income is required by SFAS 123,
ACCOUNTING FOR STOCK BASED COMPENSATION, which also requires that the
information be determined as if the Company had accounted for its employee stock
options granted under the fair value method prescribed by SFAS 123. The fair
value for these options was estimated at the date of grant using the
Black-Scholes pricing model with the following weighted-average assumptions:
 
<TABLE>
<S>                                                                  <C>
Risk-free interest rate............................................    6.00%
Dividend yield.....................................................    0.00%
Weighted-average expected life of options..........................   5 years
Expected volatility................................................     .65
</TABLE>
 
    The Company has granted stock options to various employees under the terms
of the respective employee agreements. The stock options generally vest over
three years. The term of each option is ten years from the date of grant.

10. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
 
    On January 12, 1999, the Company issued 500,000 shares of its Common Stock
for $250,000 to an existing shareholder in exchange for a shareholder
receivable. Subsequent to March 31, 1999 and prior to the issuance of the
audited financial statements the shareholder receivable was paid in full.
 
    On January 12, 1999, the Company entered into an agreement with a bank to
factor the Company's accounts receivable with full recourse. Under the contract,
the bank shall purchase the accounts receivable under the following terms: 80%
of the balance is remitted at the sale date, 15% is remitted upon receipt of the
balance due from the customer and the remaining 5% is the commission fee charged
by the bank.
 
    On May 3, 1999, the Board approved a change in the Company's state of
incorporation from Texas to Delaware. In conjunction with this change the Board
approved a change in the par value of the common stock from $.01 to $.001 per
share; eliminated the Class B Common Stock; authorized 5,000,000 shares of
Preferred Stock; and authorized a total of 20,000,000 shares of Common Stock.
 
    In addition, the Board approved the exchange of one share for every five
shares of outstanding stock. The common and Preferred shares authorized above
reflect this change. All share and per share information in the financial
statements and related notes have been retroactively restated to reflect this
exchange and the change in authorized shares and par value.

                     INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS
 
ITEM 24. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.
 
    Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law provides, in effect,
that we may, and in certain cases must, indemnify any person made a party to any
action by reason of the fact that he is or was one of our directors, officers,
employees or agents against, in the case of a non-derivative action, judgments,
fines, amounts paid in settlement and reasonable expenses (including attorneys'
fees) incurred by him as a result of such action, and in the case of a
derivative action, against expenses (including attorneys' fees), if in either
type of action he acted in good faith and in a manner he reasonably believed to
be in or not opposed to our best interests. This indemnification does not apply,
in a derivative action, to matters as to which it is adjudged that the director,
officer, employee or agent is liable to us, unless upon court order it is
determined that, despite such adjudication of liability, but in view of all the
circumstances of the case, he is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for
expenses, and, in a non-derivative action, to any criminal proceeding in which
such person had reasonable cause to believe his conduct was unlawful.
 
    Article 6 of our certificate of incorporation provides that no director
shall be liable to us or our stockholders for monetary damages for breach of
fiduciary duty as a director to the fullest extent permitted by Delaware law.
 
    Article 11 of our bylaws provide that we shall indemnify, to the fullest
extent permitted by Delaware law, any and all of our directors and officers, or
former directors and officers, or any person who may have served at our request
as a director or officer of another corporation, partnership, joint venture,
trust or other enterprise.
 
    Reference is made to Section    of the Underwriting Agreement to be filed as
Exhibit 1.1 hereto, pursuant to which the Underwriter has agreed to indemnify
officers and directors of Perficient against certain liabilities under the
Securities Act.
 
    We have entered into Indemnity Agreements with each of our directors and
officers, a form of which is filed as Exhibit 10.4 to this Registration
Statement. Under these agreements, we will be obligated, to the extent permitted
by Delaware Law, to indemnify such directors and officers against all expenses,
judgments, fines and penalties incurred in connection with the defense or
settlement of any actions brought against them by reason of the fact that they
served as directors or officers or assumed certain responsibilities at our
direction. We also intend to purchase directors and officers liability insurance
in order to limit our exposure to liability for indemnification of directors and
officers.

ITEM 28. UNDERTAKINGS.
 
    The registrant hereby undertakes to provide to the underwriter at the
closing specified in the underwriting agreement, certificates in such
denominations and registered in such names as required by the underwriter to
permit prompt delivery to each purchaser.
 
    Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
registrant, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the
Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy
as expressed in the Securities Act, and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the
event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the
payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or
controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action,
suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person
in connection with the securities being registered hereunder, the registrant
will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by
controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the
question of whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as
expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication
of such issue.
 
    The registrant hereby undertakes that:
 
        1.  For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act,
    the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this
    registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of
    prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1), or (4), or
    497(h) under the Securities Act as part of this registration statement as of
    the time the Securities and Exchange Commission declared it effective.
 
        2.  For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act,
    each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be
    deemed to be a new registration statement for the securities offered
    therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to
    be the initial BONA FIDE offering thereof.

                                     ARTICLE I.

          The name of this Corporation shall be Perficient, Inc.

                                     ARTICLE III.

          The purpose of the Corporation is to engage in any lawful act or

                                     ARTICLE IV.

          The name and mailing address of the incorporator of the Corporation
is:

                    Bryan R. Menell
                    7600-B North Capital of Texas Highway
                    Suite 220
                    Austin, Texas 78731

          B.   COMMON STOCK.  Each share of Common Stock shall have one vote on

to the provisions of applicable law and the rights of the holders of the
outstanding shares of Preferred Stock, if any, the holders of shares of Common
Stock shall be entitled to receive, when and as declared by the Board of
Directors of the Corporation, out of the assets of the Corporation legally

<PAGE>

Corporation.  The holders of shares of Common Stock shall be entitled to

required to be paid or distributed to holders of outstanding shares of 
Preferred Stock, if any, are so paid or distributed.

          C.   PREFERRED STOCK.  The Preferred Stock may be issued from time to

designations, preferences, conversion and other rights, voting powers,
restrictions, limitations as to dividends, qualifications, and terms and
conditions of redemption shall be as set forth in resolutions adopted by the
Board of Directors.

          The Board of Directors is expressly authorized, at any time, by
adopting resolutions providing for the issuance of, or providing for a change in
the number of, shares of any particular series of Preferred Stock and, if and to
the extent from time to time required by law, by filing certificates of
amendment or designation which are effective without stockholder action, to
increase or decrease the number of shares included in each series of Preferred
Stock, but not below the number of shares then issued, and to set in any one or
more respects the designations, preferences, conversion or other rights, voting
powers, restrictions, limitations as to dividends, qualifications, or terms and
conditions of redemption relating to the shares of each such series.  The
authority of the Board of Directors with respect to each series of Preferred
Stock shall include, but not be limited to, setting or changing the following:

          a.   the dividend rate, if any, on shares of such series, the times of
          payment and the date from which dividends shall be accumulated, if
          dividends are to be cumulative;

          b.   whether the shares of such series shall be redeemable and, if so,
          the redemption price and the terms and conditions of such redemption; 

          c.   the obligation, if any, of the Corporation to redeem shares of
          such series pursuant to a sinking fund; 

          d.   whether shares of such series shall be convertible into, or
          exchangeable for, shares of stock of any other class of classes and,
          if so, the terms and conditions of such conversion or exchange,
          including the price or prices or the rate or rates of conversion or
          exchange and the terms of adjustment, if any;

          e.   whether the shares of such series shall have voting rights, in
          addition to the voting rights provided by law, and, if so, the extent
          of such voting rights;

          f.   the rights of the shares of such series in the event of voluntary
          or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of the
          Corporation; and

          g.   any other relative rights, powers, preferences, qualifications,
          limitations or restrictions thereof relating to such series.

                                     ARTICLE VI.

          A director of the Corporation shall not be personally liable to the
Corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary
duty as a director, except for liability (i) for any breach of the director's
duty of loyalty to the Corporation or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or
omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing
violation of law, (iii) under Section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation
Law, or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived any improper
personal benefit.  If the Delaware General Corporation Law is amended after
approval by the stockholders of this Article to authorize corporate action
further eliminating or limiting the personal liability of directors, then the
liability of a director of the Corporation shall be eliminated or limited to the
fullest extent permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law as so amended.

                                     ARTICLE VII.

          The management of the business and the conduct of the affairs of the
Corporation shall be vested in its Board of Directors.  The number of directors
which shall constitute the whole Board of Directors shall be fixed by, or in the
manner provided in, the Bylaws of the Corporation.

                                    ARTICLE VIII.

          Meetings of stockholders may be held within or without the State of
Delaware, as the Bylaws may provide.  The books of the Corporation may be kept
(subject to any provision contained in the statutes) outside the State of
Delaware at such place or places as may be designated from time to time by the
Board of Directors or in the Bylaws of the Corporation.

                                     ARTICLE IX.

          Election of directors at an annual or special meeting of stockholders
need not be by written ballot unless the Bylaws of the Corporation shall so
provide.

                                      ARTICLE X.

          In furtherance and not in limitation of the powers conferred by
statute, the Board of Directors is expressly authorized to make, alter, amend or
repeal the Bylaws of the Corporation.

                                     ARTICLE XI.

          Effective upon the closing of the initial public offering of the
corporation's capital stock pursuant to an effective registration statement
filed under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, stockholders of the
Corporation may not take action by written consent in lieu of a meeting but must
take any actions at a duly called annual or special meeting.

                                    ARTICLE I

                                     OFFICES

     SECTION 1.1  REGISTERED OFFICE.  The registered office of the 
corporation shall be the registered office named in the certificate of 
incorporation of the corporation, or such other office as may be designated 
from time to time by the Board of Directors in the manner provided by law.

     SECTION 1.2  OTHER OFFICES.  The corporation may have offices at such 
other places both within and without the State of Delaware as the Board of 
Directors may from time to time determine or the business of the corporation 
may require. The books of the corporation may be kept (subject to any 
provision contained in the Delaware General Corporation Law) outside the 
State of Delaware at such place or places as may be designated from time to 
time by the Board of Directors or in these Bylaws.

                                   ARTICLE II

                                 CORPORATE SEAL

     The corporate seal shall consist of a die bearing the name of the

                                  ARTICLE III

                             STOCKHOLDERS' MEETINGS

     SECTION 3.1  PLACE OF MEETINGS.  Meetings of the stockholders of the 
corporation shall be held at such place, either within or without the State 
of Delaware, as may be designated from time to time by the Board of 
Directors, or, if not so designated, then at the principal executive offices 
of the corporation.

     SECTION 3.2  ANNUAL MEETING.

     (a) The annual meeting of the stockholders of the corporation, for the
purpose of election of Directors and for such other business as may lawfully
come before it, shall be held on such date and at such time as may be designated
from time to time by the Board of Directors. 

<PAGE>

     (b) At an annual meeting of the stockholders, only such business shall be
conducted as shall have been properly brought before the meeting. To be properly
brought before an annual meeting, business must be: (A) specified in the notice
of meeting (or any supplement thereto) given by or at the direction of the Board
of Directors; (B) otherwise properly brought before the meeting by or at the
direction of the Board of Directors; or (C) otherwise properly brought before
the meeting by a stockholder. For business to be properly brought before an
annual meeting by a stockholder, the stockholder must have given timely notice
thereof in writing to the Secretary of the corporation. To be timely, a
stockholder's notice must be delivered to or mailed and received at the
principal executive offices of the corporation not less than one hundred twenty
(120) calendar days in advance of the date of the Notice of Annual Meeting
released to stockholders in connection with the previous year's annual meeting
of stockholders; provided, however, that in the event that no annual meeting was
held in the previous year or the date of the annual meeting has been changed by
more than thirty (30) days from the date contemplated at the time of the
previous year's Notice of Annual Meeting, notice by the stockholder to be timely
must be so received a reasonable time before the Notice of Annual Meeting is
released to stockholders. A stockholder's notice to the Secretary shall set
forth as to each matter the stockholder proposes to bring before the annual
meeting: (i) a brief description of the business desired to be brought before
the annual meeting and the reasons for conducting such business at the annual
meeting; (ii) the name and address, as they appear on the corporation's books,
of the stockholder proposing such business; (iii) the class and number of shares
of the corporation which are beneficially owned by the stockholder; (iv) any
material interest of the stockholder in such business; and (v) any other
information that is required to be provided by the stockholder pursuant to
Regulation 14A under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "1934
ACT"), in such stockholder's capacity as a proponent of a stockholder proposal.
Notwithstanding anything in these Bylaws to the contrary, no business shall be
conducted at any annual meeting except in accordance with the procedures set
forth in this paragraph. The chairman of the annual meeting shall, if the facts
warrant, determine and declare at the meeting that business was not properly
brought before the meeting and in accordance with the provisions of this
paragraph, and, if the chairman should so determine, the chairman shall so
declare at the meeting that any such business not properly brought before the
meeting shall not be transacted.

     (c) Only persons who are nominated in accordance with the procedures set
forth in this paragraph shall be eligible for election as Directors. Nominations
of persons for election to the Board of Directors of the corporation may be made
at a meeting of stockholders by or at the direction of the Board of Directors or
by any stockholder of the corporation entitled to vote in the election of
Directors at the meeting who complies with the notice procedures set forth in
this paragraph. Such nominations, other than those made by or at the direction
of the Board of Directors, shall be made pursuant to timely notice in writing to
the Secretary of the corporation in accordance with the provisions of paragraph
(b) of this Section 3.2. Such stockholder's notice shall set forth (i) as to
each person, if any, whom the stockholder proposes to nominate for election or
re-election as a Director: (A) the name, age, business address and residence
address of such person; (B) the principal occupation or employment of such
person; (C) the class and number of shares of the corporation which are
beneficially owned by such person; (D) a description of all arrangements or
understandings between the stockholder and each nominee and any other person or
persons (naming such person or persons) pursuant to which the nominations are to
be made by the stockholder; and (E) any other information relating 


                                       2
<PAGE>

to such person that is required to be disclosed in solicitations of proxies 
for election of Directors, or is otherwise required in each case pursuant to 
Regulation 14A under the 1934 Act (including without limitation such person's 
written consent to being named in the proxy statement, if any, as a nominee 
and to serving as a Director if elected); and (ii) as to such stockholder 
giving notice, the information required to be provided pursuant to paragraph 
(b) of this Section 3.2. At the request of the Board of Directors, any person 
nominated by a stockholder for election as a Director shall furnish to the 
Secretary of the corporation that information required to be set forth in the 
stockholder's notice of nomination which pertains to the nominee. No person 
shall be eligible for election as a Director of the corporation unless 
nominated in accordance with the procedures set forth in this paragraph. The 
chairman of the meeting shall, if the facts warrant, determine and declare at 
the meeting that a nomination was not made in accordance with the procedures 
prescribed by these Bylaws, and if the chairman should so determine, the 
chairman shall so declare at the meeting, and the defective nomination shall 
be disregarded.

     SECTION 3.3 SPECIAL MEETINGS.

     (a) Special meetings of the stockholders of the corporation may only be
called, for any purpose or purposes, by (i) the Chairman of the Board of
Directors, (ii) the President or (iii) the Board of Directors pursuant to a
resolution adopted by a majority of the total number of authorized directors
(whether or not there exist any vacancies in previously authorized directorships
at the time any such resolution is presented to the Board of Directors for
adoption). 

     (b) If a special meeting is called pursuant to paragraph (a) above by any
person or persons other than the Board of Directors, the request shall be in
writing, specifying the general nature of the business proposed to be
transacted, and shall be delivered personally or sent by registered mail or by
telegraphic or other facsimile transmission to the Chairman of the Board of
Directors, the President, or the Secretary of the corporation. No business may
be transacted at such special meeting otherwise than specified in such notice.
The Board of Directors shall determine the time and place of such special
meeting, which shall be held not less than thirty-five (35) nor more than one
hundred twenty (120) days after the date of the receipt of the request. Upon
determination of the time and place of the meeting, the officer receiving the
request shall cause notice to be given to the stockholders entitled to vote, in
accordance with the provisions of Section 3.4 of these Bylaws. If the notice is
not given within sixty (60) days after the receipt of the request, the person or
persons requesting the meeting may set the time and place of the meeting and
give the notice. Nothing contained in this paragraph (b) shall be construed as
limiting, fixing or affecting the time when a meeting of stockholders called by
action of the Board of Directors may be held.

     SECTION 3.4  NOTICE OF MEETINGS.  Except as otherwise provided by law or 
the certificate of incorporation of the corporation, as the same may be 
amended or restated from time to time and including any certificates of 
designation thereunder (hereinafter, the "CERTIFICATE OF INCORPORATION"), 
written notice of each meeting of stockholders shall be given not less than 
ten (10) nor more than sixty (60) days before the date of the meeting to each 
stockholder entitled to vote at such meeting, such notice to specify the 
place, date, time and purpose or purposes of the meeting. Notice of any 
meeting of stockholders may be waived in writing, signed by the person 
entitled to notice thereof, either before or after such meeting, and will be 
waived by any 


                                       3
<PAGE>

stockholder by his attendance thereat in person or by proxy, except when the 
stockholder attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting, at the 
beginning of the meeting, to the transaction of any business because the 
meeting is not lawfully called or convened. Any stockholder so waiving notice 
of such meeting shall be bound by the proceedings of any such meeting in all 
respects as if due notice thereof had been given.

     SECTION 3.5  QUORUM.  At all meetings of stockholders, except where 
otherwise provided by statute or by the Certificate of Incorporation, or by 
these Bylaws, the presence, in person or by proxy duly authorized, of the 
holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of stock entitled to vote 
shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. In the absence of 
a quorum, any meeting of stockholders may be adjourned, from time to time, 
either by the chairman of the meeting or by vote of the holders of a majority 
of the shares represented thereat, but no other business shall be transacted 
at such meeting. The stockholders present at a duly called or convened 
meeting, at which a quorum is present, may continue to transact business 
until adjournment, notwithstanding the withdrawal of enough stockholders to 
leave less than a quorum. Except as otherwise provided by law, the 
Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, all action taken by the holders 
of a majority of the votes cast, excluding abstentions, at any meeting at 
which a quorum is present shall be valid and binding upon the corporation; 
provided, however, that Directors shall be elected by a plurality of the 
votes of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting 
and entitled to vote on the election of Directors. Where a separate vote by a 
class or classes is required, a majority of the outstanding shares of such 
class or classes, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute 
a quorum entitled to take action with respect to that vote on that matter and 
the affirmative vote of the majority (plurality, in the case of the election 
of Directors) of shares of such class or classes present in person or 
represented by proxy at the meeting shall be the act of such class.

     SECTION 3.6  ADJOURNMENT AND NOTICE OF ADJOURNED MEETINGS. Any meeting 
of stockholders, whether annual or special, may be adjourned from time to 
time either by the chairman of the meeting or by the vote of a majority of 
the shares casting votes, excluding abstentions. When a meeting is adjourned 
to another time or place, notice need not be given of the adjourned meeting 
if the time and place thereof are announced at the meeting at which the 
adjournment is taken. At the adjourned meeting, the corporation may transact 
any business which might have been transacted at the original meeting. If the 
adjournment is for more than thirty (30) days or if after the adjournment a 
new record date is fixed for the adjourned meeting, a notice of the adjourned 
meeting shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at the 
meeting.

     SECTION 3.7  VOTING RIGHTS. For the purpose of determining those 
stockholders entitled to vote at any meeting of the stockholders, except as 
otherwise provided by law, only persons in whose names shares stand on the 
stock records of the corporation on the record date, as provided in Section 
3.9 of these Bylaws, shall be entitled to vote at any meeting of 
stockholders. Every person entitled to vote or execute consents shall have 
the right to do so either in person or by an agent or agents authorized by a 
written proxy executed by such person or his duly authorized agent, which 
proxy shall be filed with the Secretary at or before the meeting at which it 
is to be used. An agent so appointed need not be a stockholder. No proxy 
shall be voted after three (3) years from its date of creation unless the 
proxy provides for a longer 


                                       4
<PAGE>

period. Elections of Directors need not be by written ballot, unless 
otherwise provided in the Certificate of Incorporation.

     SECTION 3.8  JOINT OWNERS OF STOCK.  If shares or other securities 
having voting power stand of record in the names of two (2) or more persons, 
whether fiduciaries, members of a partnership, joint tenants, tenants in 
common, tenants by the entirety, or otherwise, or if two (2) or more persons 
have the same fiduciary relationship respecting the same shares, unless the 
Secretary is given written notice to the contrary and is furnished with a 
copy of the instrument or order appointing them or creating the relationship 
wherein it is so provided, their acts with respect to voting shall have the 
following effect: (a) if only one (1) votes, his act binds all; (b) if more 
than one (1) votes, the act of the majority so voting binds all; or (c) if 
more than one (1) votes, but the vote is evenly split on any particular 
matter, each faction may vote the securities in question proportionally, or 
may apply to the Delaware Court of Chancery for relief as provided in the 
General Corporation Law of Delaware, Section 217(b). If the instrument filed 
with the Secretary shows that any such tenancy is held in unequal interests, 
a majority or even-split for the purpose of clause (c) shall be a majority or 
even-split in interest.

     SECTION 3.9  LIST OF STOCKHOLDERS. The Secretary shall prepare and make, 
at least ten (10) days before every meeting of stockholders, a complete list 
of the stockholders entitled to vote at said meeting, arranged in 
alphabetical order, showing the address of each stockholder and the number of 
shares registered in the name of each stockholder. Such list shall be open to 
the examination of any stockholder, for any purpose germane to the meeting, 
during ordinary business hours, for a period of at least ten (10) days prior 
to the meeting, either at a place within the city where the meeting is to be 
held, which place shall be specified in the notice of the meeting, or, if not 
specified, at the place where the meeting is to be held. The list shall be 
produced and kept at the time and place of meeting during the whole time 
thereof and may be inspected by any stockholder who is present.

     SECTION 3.10  NO ACTION WITHOUT MEETING. Effective upon the closing of 
the corporation's initial public offering (the "Initial Public Offering") of 
its capital stock pursuant to an effective registration statement filed under 
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the stockholders of the corporation 
may not take action by written consent without a meeting and must take any 
actions at a duly called annual or special meeting.

     SECTION 3.11 ORGANIZATION.

     (a) At every meeting of stockholders, unless another officer of the
corporation has been appointed by the Board of Directors, the Chairman of the
Board of Directors, or, if a Chairman has not been appointed, is absent, or
designates the next senior officer present to so act, the President, or, if the
President is absent, the most senior Vice President present, or, in the absence
of any such officer, a chairman of the meeting chosen by a majority in interest
of the stockholders entitled to vote, present in person or by proxy, shall act
as chairman. The Secretary, or, in his absence, an Assistant Secretary directed
to do so by the President, shall act as secretary of the meeting.


                                       5

     (b) The Board of Directors of the corporation shall be entitled to make
such rules or regulations for the conduct of meetings of stockholders as it
shall deem necessary, appropriate or convenient. Subject to such rules and
regulations of the Board of Directors, if any, the chairman of the meeting shall
have the right and authority to prescribe such rules, regulations and procedures
and to do all such acts as, in the judgment of such chairman, are necessary,
appropriate or convenient for the proper conduct of the meeting, including,
without limitation, establishing an agenda or order of business for the meeting,
rules and procedures for maintaining order at the meeting and the safety of
those present, limitations on participation in such meeting to stockholders of
record of the corporation and their duly authorized and constituted proxies and
such other persons as the chairman shall permit, restrictions on entry to the
meeting after the time fixed for the commencement thereof, limitations on the
time allotted to questions or comments by participants and regulation of the
opening and closing of the polls for balloting on matters which are to be voted
on by ballot. Unless and to the extent determined by the Board of Directors or
the chairman of the meeting, meetings of stockholders shall not be required to
be held in accordance with rules of parliamentary procedure.

                                   ARTICLE IV

                                    DIRECTORS

     SECTION 4.1  NUMBER AND TERM OF OFFICE; CLASSIFICATION.

     The number of directors which shall constitute the whole Board of Directors
shall be determined from time to time by the Board of Directors (provided that
no decrease in the number of directors which would have the effect of shortening
the term of an incumbent director may be made by the Board of Directors),
provided that the number of directors shall be not less than one (1). At each
annual meeting of stockholders, Directors of the corporation shall be elected to
hold office until the next annual meeting of stockholders or until their
successors have been duly elected and qualified or until such Director's earlier
death, resignation or due removal; except that if any such election shall not be
so held, such election shall take place at a stockholders' meeting called and
held in accordance with the Delaware General Corporation Law. Directors need not
be stockholders unless so required by the Certificate of Incorporation. If, for
any reason, the Directors shall not have been elected at an annual meeting, they
may be elected as soon thereafter as convenient at a special meeting of the
stockholders called for that purpose in the manner provided in these Bylaws.

     SECTION 4.2  POWERS. The powers of the corporation shall be exercised, 
its business conducted and its property controlled by the Board of Directors, 
except as may be otherwise provided by statute or by the Certificate of 
Incorporation.

     SECTION 4.3  VACANCIES AND NEWLY CREATED DIRECTORSHIPS. Vacancies and 
newly created directorships resulting from any increase in the authorized 
number of directors may be filled by vote of a majority of the remaining 
members of the Board of Directors, although less than a quorum, at any 
meeting of the Board of Directors, or by a sole remaining Director. Each 
Director so elected shall hold office for the unexpired portion of the term 
of the Director whose 


                                         6

<PAGE>


place shall be vacant and until his or her successor shall have been duly 
elected and qualified or until such Director's earlier death, resignation or 
due removal.

     SECTION 4.4  RESIGNATION. Any Director may resign at any time by 
delivering his or her written resignation to the Secretary, such resignation 
to specify whether it will be effective at a particular time, upon receipt by 
the Secretary or at the pleasure of the Board of Directors. If no such 
specification is made, it shall be deemed effective at the pleasure of the 
Board of Directors. When one or more Directors shall resign from the Board of 
Directors, effective at a future date, a majority of the Directors then in 
office, including those who have so resigned, shall have power to fill such 
vacancy or vacancies, the vote thereon to take effect when such resignation 
or resignations shall become effective, and each Director so chosen shall 
hold office for the unexpired portion of the term of the Director whose place 
shall be vacated and until his successor shall have been duly elected and 
qualified.

     SECTION 4.5  MEETINGS.

     (a) ANNUAL MEETINGS. Unless the Board shall determine otherwise, the annual
meeting of the Board of Directors shall be held immediately before or after the
annual meeting of stockholders and at the place where such meeting is held. No
notice of an annual meeting of the Board of Directors shall be necessary and
such meeting shall be held for the purpose of electing officers and transacting
such other business as may lawfully come before it.

     (b) REGULAR MEETINGS. Except as hereinafter otherwise provided, regular
meetings of the Board of Directors shall be held in the principal executive
offices of the corporation. Unless otherwise restricted by the Certificate of
Incorporation, regular meetings of the Board of Directors may also be held at
any place within or without the State of Delaware which has been designated by
resolution of the Board of Directors or the written consent of all directors.


     (c) SPECIAL MEETINGS. Unless otherwise restricted by the Certificate of
Incorporation, and subject to the notice requirements contained herein, special
meetings of the Board of Directors may be held at any time and place within or
without the State of Delaware whenever called by the Chairman of the Board, the
President or any two of the Directors.

     (d) TELEPHONE MEETINGS. Any member of the Board of Directors, or of any
committee thereof, may participate in a meeting by means of conference telephone
or similar communications equipment by means of which all persons participating
in the meeting can hear each other, and participation in a meeting by such means
shall constitute presence in person at such meeting. 

     (e) NOTICE OF MEETINGS. Written notice of the time and place of all special
meetings of the Board of Directors shall be given at least one (1) day before
the date of the meeting. Such notice need not state the purpose or purposes of
such meeting, except as may otherwise be required by law or provided for in the
Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws. Notice of any meeting may be
waived in writing at any time before or after the meeting and will be deemed
waived by any Director by attendance thereat, except when the Director attends
the 


                                      7

<PAGE>

meeting solely for the express purpose of objecting, at the beginning of the
meeting, to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully
called or convened.

     (f) WAIVER OF NOTICE. The transaction of all business at any meeting of the
Board of Directors, or any committee thereof, however called or noticed, or
wherever held, shall be as valid as though had at a meeting duly held after
regular call and notice, if a quorum be present and if, either before or after
meeting, each of the Directors not present shall sign a written waiver of
notice, or a consent to holding such meeting, or an approval of the minutes
thereof. All such waivers, consents or approvals shall be filed with the
corporate records or made a part of the minutes of the meeting.

     SECTION 4.6  QUORUM AND VOTING.

     (a) Unless the Certificate of Incorporation requires a greater number and
except with respect to indemnification questions arising under Article XI
hereof, for which a quorum shall be one-third of the exact number of Directors
fixed from time to time in accordance with Section 4.1 hereof, but not less than
one (1), a quorum of the Board of Directors shall consist of a majority of the
exact number of directors fixed from time to time in accordance with Section 4.1
of these Bylaws, but not less than one (1); provided, however, at any meeting
whether a quorum be present or otherwise, a majority of the Directors present
may adjourn from time to time until the time fixed for the next regular meeting
of the Board of Directors, without notice other than by announcement at the
meeting.

     (b) At each meeting of the Board of Directors at which a quorum is present,
all questions and business shall be determined by a vote of the majority of the
Directors present, unless a different vote is required by law, the Certificate
of Incorporation or these Bylaws.

     SECTION 4.7  ACTION WITHOUT MEETING. Unless otherwise restricted by the 
Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, any action required or 
permitted to be taken at any meeting of the Board of Directors or of any 
committee thereof may be taken without a meeting, if all members of the Board 
of Directors or committee, as the case may be, consent thereto in writing, 
and such writing or writings are filed with the minutes of proceedings of the 
Board of Directors or committee.

     SECTION 4.8  FEES AND COMPENSATION. Directors shall be entitled to such 
compensation for their services as may be approved by the Board of Directors, 
including, if so approved, by resolution of the Board of Directors, a fixed 
sum and expenses of attendance, if any, for attendance at each regular or 
special meeting of the Board of Directors and at any meeting of a committee 
of the Board of Directors. Nothing herein contained shall be construed to 
preclude any Director from serving the corporation in any other capacity as 
an officer, agent, employee, or otherwise and receiving compensation therefor.

     SECTION 4.9  COMMITTEES.

     (a) COMMITTEES. The Board of Directors may, by resolution passed by a 
majority of the whole Board of Directors, from time to time appoint one or 
more committees as may be permitted by law. Such other committees appointed 
by the Board of Directors shall consist of one (1) or more members of the 
Board of Directors and shall have such powers and 


                                    8
<PAGE>


perform such duties as may be prescribed by the resolution or resolutions 
creating such committees, but in no event shall such committee have the power 
or authority to amend the Certificate of Incorporation, to adopt an agreement 
of merger or consolidation, to recommend to the stockholders the sale, lease 
or exchange of all or substantially all of the corporation's property and 
assets, to recommend to the stockholders of the corporation a dissolution of 
the corporation or a revocation of a dissolution, or to amend these Bylaws.

     (b) TERM. Each member of a committee of the Board of Directors shall 
serve a term on the committee coexistent with such member's term on the Board 
of Directors. The Board of Directors, subject to the provisions of paragraphs 
(a) and (b) of this Section 4.9 may at any time increase or decrease the 
number of members of a committee or terminate the existence of a committee. 
The Board of Directors may at any time for any reason remove any individual 
committee member and the Board of Directors may fill any committee vacancy 
created by death, resignation, removal or increase in the number of members 
of the committee. The Board of Directors may designate one or more Directors 
as alternate members of any committee, who may replace any absent or 
disqualified member at any meeting of the committee, and, in addition, in the 
absence or disqualification of any member of a committee, the member or 
members thereof present at any meeting and not disqualified from voting, 
whether or not he or they constitute a quorum, may unanimously appoint 
another member of the Board of Directors to act at the meeting in the place 
of any such absent or disqualified member.

     (c) MEETINGS. Unless the Board of Directors shall otherwise provide, 
regular meetings of any committee appointed pursuant to this Section 4.9 
shall be held at such times and places as are determined by the Board of 
Directors, or by any such committee, and when notice thereof has been given 
to each member of such committee, no further notice of such regular meetings 
need be given thereafter. Special meetings of any such committee may be held 
at any place which has been determined from time to time by such committee, 
and may be called by any Director who is a member of such committee, upon 
written notice to the members of such committee of the time and place of such 
special meeting given in the manner provided for the giving of written notice

Vice Chairman or if the Vice Chairman is not present, a chairman chosen by a 
majority of the directors present shall act as chairman of such meeting. The 
Secretary of the corporation or, in the absence of the Secretary, any person 
appointed by the Chairman shall act as secretary of the meeting.

documents requiring the corporate seal, and certificates of shares of stock
owned by the corporation, shall be executed, signed or endorsed by the Chairman

                                 SHARES OF STOCK

     SECTION 7.1  FORM AND EXECUTION OF CERTIFICATES. Certificates for the 
shares of stock of the corporation shall be in such form as is consistent

in the name of the corporation by the Chairman or Vice Chairman of the Board 
of Directors, the Chief Executive Officer, the President or any Vice 
President and by the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary or the Treasurer or 
an Assistant Treasurer, certifying the number of shares and the class or 
series owned by him in the corporation. Where such certificate is 
countersigned by a transfer agent other than the corporation or its employee, 
or by a registrar other than the corporation or its employee, any other 
signature on the certificate may be a facsimile. In case any officer, 
transfer agent, or registrar who has signed or whose facsimile signature has 
been placed upon a certificate shall have ceased to be such officer, transfer 
agent, or registrar before such certificate is issued, it may be issued with 
the same effect as if he were such officer, transfer agent, or registrar at

be issued in place of any certificate or certificates theretofore issued by 
the corporation alleged to have been lost, stolen, or destroyed, upon the 
making of an affidavit of that fact by the person claiming the certificate of 
stock to be lost, stolen, or destroyed. The corporation may require, as a 
condition precedent to the issuance of a new certificate or certificates, the 
owner of such lost, stolen, or destroyed certificate or certificates, or his 
legal representative, to advertise the same in such manner as it shall 
require or to give the corporation a surety bond in such form and amount as 
it may direct as indemnity against any claim that may be made against the 
corporation with respect to the certificate alleged to have been lost, stolen 
or destroyed.

     SECTION 7.3  TRANSFERS.

     (a) Transfers of record of shares of stock of the corporation shall be made
only on its books by the holders thereof, in person or by attorney duly
authorized and upon the surrender of a properly endorsed certificate or
certificates for a like number of shares. Upon surrender to the corporation or a
transfer agent of the corporation of a certificate for shares duly endorsed or
accompanied by proper evidence of succession, assignment or authority to
transfer, it shall be the duty of the corporation to issue a new certificate to
the person entitled thereto, cancel the old certificate and record the
transaction upon its books. The Board of Directors shall have the power and
authority to make all such other rules and regulations as they may deem
expedient concerning the issue, transfer and registration or the replacement of
certificates for shares of capital stock of the corporation.

     (b) The corporation shall have power to enter into and perform any
agreement with any number of stockholders of any one or more classes of stock of
the corporation to restrict the transfer of shares of stock of the corporation
of any one or more classes owned by such stockholders in any manner not
prohibited by the Delaware General Corporation Law.

     SECTION 7.4  FIXING RECORD DATES.

     (a) In order that the corporation may determine the stockholders entitled
to notice of or to vote at any meeting of stockholders or any adjournment
thereof, the Board of Directors may fix, in advance, a record date, which record
date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date
is adopted by the Board of Directors, and which record date shall not be more
than sixty (60) nor less than ten (10) days before the date of such meeting. If
no record date is fixed by the Board of Directors, the record date for
determining stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of
stockholders shall be at the close of business on the day next preceding the day
on which notice is given, or if notice is waived, at the close of business on
the day next preceding the day on which the meeting is held. A determination of
stockholders of record entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of
stockholders shall apply to any adjournment of the meeting; provided, however,
that the Board of Directors may fix a new record date for the adjourned meeting.

     (b) In order that the corporation may determine the stockholders entitled
to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment of any
rights or the stockholders entitled to exercise any rights in respect of any
change, conversion or exchange of stock, or for the purpose of any other lawful
action, the Board of Directors may fix, in advance, a record date, which record
date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date
is adopted, and which record date shall be not more than sixty (60) days prior
to such action. If no record date is fixed by the Board of Directors, the record
date for determining stockholders for any such purpose shall be at the close of
business on the day on which the Board of Directors adopts the resolution
relating thereto.

     SECTION 7.5  REGISTERED STOCKHOLDERS. The corporation shall be entitled 
to recognize the exclusive right of a person registered on its books as the 
owner of shares to receive dividends, and to vote as such owner, and shall

share or shares on the part of any other person whether or not it shall have 
express or other notice thereof, except as otherwise provided by the laws of 
Delaware.

     SECTION 8.1  EXECUTION OF OTHER SECURITIES. All bonds, debentures and 
other corporate securities of the corporation, other than stock certificates 
(covered in Section 7.1), may be signed by the Chairman or Vice Chairman of 
the Board of Directors, the Chief Executive Officer, the President or any 
Vice President, or such other person as may be authorized by the Board of 
Directors, and the corporate seal impressed thereon or a facsimile of such 
seal imprinted thereon and attested by the signature of the Secretary or an 
Assistant Secretary, or the Treasurer or an Assistant Treasurer; provided, 
however, that where any such bond, debenture or other corporate security 
shall be authenticated by the manual signature of a trustee under an 
indenture pursuant to which such bond, debenture or other corporate security 
shall be issued, the signatures of the persons signing and attesting the 
corporate seal on such bond, debenture or other corporate security may be the 
imprinted facsimile of the signatures of such persons.

Interest coupons appertaining to any such bond, debenture or other corporate 
security, authenticated by a trustee as aforesaid, shall be signed by the 
Treasurer or an Assistant Treasurer of the corporation or such other person 
as may be authorized by the Board of Directors, or bear imprinted thereon the 
facsimile signature of such person. In case any officer who shall have signed 
or attested any bond, debenture or other corporate security, or whose 
facsimile signature shall appear thereon or on any such interest coupon, 
shall have ceased to be such officer before any bond, debenture or other 
corporate security so signed or attested shall have been delivered, such 
bond, debenture or other corporate security nevertheless may be adopted by 
the corporation and issued and delivered as though the person who signed the 
same or whose facsimile signature shall have been used thereon had not ceased 
to be such officer of the corporation.

                                   ARTICLE IX

                                    DIVIDENDS

of the corporation, subject to the provisions of the Certificate of 
Incorporation, if any, may be declared by the Board of Directors pursuant to 
law at any regular or special meeting. Dividends may be paid in cash, in 
property, or in shares of the capital stock, subject to the provisions of the 
Certificate of Incorporation.

     SECTION 9.2  DIVIDEND RESERVE.  Before payment of any dividend, there may
be set aside out of any funds of the corporation available for dividends such 
sum or sums as the Board of Directors from time to time, in their absolute 
discretion, think proper as a reserve or reserves to meet contingencies, or 
for equalizing dividends, or for repairing or maintaining any property of the 
corporation, or for such other purpose as the Board of Directors shall think 
conducive to the interests of the corporation, and the Board of Directors may 
modify or abolish any such reserve in the manner in which it was created.

                                   ARTICLE XI

                          INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS,
                      OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES AND OTHER AGENTS

      SECTION 11.1  DIRECTORS AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS. The corporation shall 
indemnify its Directors and executive officers to the fullest extent not 
prohibited by the Delaware General Corporation Law; PROVIDED, HOWEVER, that 
the corporation may limit the extent of such indemnification by individual 
contracts with its Directors and executive officers; and, PROVIDED,


                                      16
<PAGE>

FURTHER, that the corporation shall not be required to indemnify any Director 
or executive officer in connection with any proceeding (or part thereof) 
initiated by such person or any proceeding by such person against the 
corporation or its Directors, officers, employees or other agents unless (i) 
such indemnification is expressly required to be made by law, (ii) the 
proceeding was authorized by the Board of Directors of the corporation, or 
(iii) such indemnification is provided by the corporation, in its sole 
discretion, pursuant to the powers vested in the corporation under the 
Delaware General Corporation Law.

     SECTION 11.2 OTHER OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES AND OTHER AGENTS. The 
corporation shall have power to indemnify its other officers, employees and 
other agents as set forth in the Delaware General Corporation Law.

     SECTION 11.3 GOOD FAITH.

     (a) For purposes of any determination under this Article XI, a Director or
executive officer shall be deemed to have acted in good faith and in a manner
such officer reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests
of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, to
have had no reasonable cause to believe that such officer's conduct was
unlawful, if such officer's action is based on information, opinions, reports
and statements, including financial statements and other financial data, in each
case prepared or presented by:

          (i)   one or more officers or employees of the corporation whom the
     Director or executive officer believed to be reliable and competent in the
     matters presented;

          (ii)  counsel, independent accountants or other persons as to matters
     which the Director or executive officer believed to be within such person's
     professional competence; and

          (iii) with respect to a Director, a committee of the Board upon which
     such Director does not serve, as to matters within such committee's
     designated authority, which committee the Director believes to merit
     confidence; so long as, in each case, the Director or executive officer
     acts without knowledge that would cause such reliance to be unwarranted.

     (b) The termination of any proceeding by judgment, order, settlement,
conviction or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent shall not, of
itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a
manner which such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best
interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal proceeding, that
such person had reasonable cause to believe that his conduct was unlawful.

     (c) The provisions of this Section 11.3 shall not be deemed to be exclusive
or to limit in any way the circumstances in which a person may be deemed to have
met the applicable standard of conduct set forth by the Delaware General
Corporation Law.


                                        17

<PAGE>


     SECTION 11.4  EXPENSES. The corporation shall advance, prior to the 
final disposition of any proceeding, promptly following request therefor, all 
expenses incurred by any Director or executive officer in connection with 
such proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such person 
to repay said amounts if it should be determined ultimately that such person 
is not entitled to be indemnified under this Article XI or otherwise.

     Notwithstanding the foregoing, unless otherwise determined pursuant to
Section 11.5 of this Article XI, no advance shall be made by the corporation if
a determination is reasonably and promptly made (i) by the Board of Directors by
a majority vote of a quorum consisting of Directors who were not parties to the
proceeding, or (ii) if such quorum is not obtainable, or, even if obtainable, a
quorum of disinterested directors so directs, by independent legal counsel in a
written opinion, that the facts known to the decision-making party at the time
such determination is made demonstrate clearly and convincingly that such person
acted in bad faith or in a manner that such person did not believe to be in or
not opposed to the best interests of the corporation.

     SECTION 11.5  ENFORCEMENT. Without the necessity of entering into an 
express contract, all rights to indemnification and advances to Directors and 
executive officers under this Article XI shall be deemed to be contractual 
rights and be effective to the same extent and as if provided for in a 
contract between the corporation and the Director or executive officer. Any 
right to indemnification or advances granted by this Article XI to a Director 
or executive officer shall be enforceable by or on behalf of the person 
holding such right in any court of competent jurisdiction if (i) the claim 
for indemnification or advances is denied, in whole or in part, or (ii) no 
disposition of such claim is made within ninety (90) days of request 
therefor. The claimant in such enforcement action, if successful in whole or 
in part, shall also be entitled to be paid the expense of prosecuting his 
claim. The corporation shall be entitled to raise as a defense to any such 
action that the claimant has not met the standards of conduct that make it 
permissible under the Delaware General Corporation Law for the corporation to 
indemnify the claimant for the amount claimed. Neither the failure of the 
corporation (including its Board of Directors, independent legal counsel or 
its stockholders) to have made a determination prior to the commencement of 
such action that indemnification of the claimant is proper in the 
circumstances because such person has met the applicable standard of conduct 
set forth in the Delaware General Corporation Law, nor an actual 
determination by the corporation (including its Board of Directors, 
independent legal counsel or its stockholders) that the claimant has not met 
such applicable standard of conduct, shall be a defense to the action or 
create a presumption that claimant has not met the applicable standard of 
conduct.

     SECTION 11.6  NON-EXCLUSIVITY OF RIGHTS. The rights conferred on any 
person by this Article XI shall not be exclusive of any other right which 
such person may have or hereafter acquire under any statute, provision of the 
Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws, agreement, vote of stockholders or 
disinterested Directors or otherwise, both as to action in his official 
capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding office. The 
corporation is specifically authorized to enter into individual contracts 
with any or all of its Directors, officers, employees or agents respecting 
indemnification and advances, to the fullest extent not prohibited by the 
Delaware General Corporation Law.


                                   18

<PAGE>


     SECTION 11.7  SURVIVAL OF RIGHTS. The rights conferred on any person by 
this Article XI shall continue as to a person who has ceased to be a 
Director, officer, employee or other agent and shall inure to the benefit of

General Corporation Law, the corporation, upon approval by the Board of 
Directors, may purchase insurance on behalf of any person required or 
permitted to be indemnified pursuant to this Article XI.

     SECTION 11.9  AMENDMENTS. Any repeal or modification of this Article XI 
shall only be prospective and shall not affect the rights under this Article 
XI in effect at the time of the alleged occurrence of any action or omission 
to act that is the cause of any proceeding against any agent of the 
corporation.

     SECTION 11.10  SAVINGS CLAUSE. If this Article XI or any portion hereof 
shall be invalidated on any ground by any court of competent jurisdiction, 
then the corporation shall nevertheless indemnify each Director and executive

law.

     SECTION 11.11  CERTAIN DEFINITIONS. For the purposes of this Article XI,

     (a) The term "proceeding" shall be broadly construed and shall include,

director, officer, employee or agent of such constituent corporation, or is or
was serving at the request of such constituent corporation as a director,
officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture,
trust or other enterprise, shall stand in the same position under the provisions
of this Article XI with respect to the resulting or surviving corporation as he

plan, its participants, or beneficiaries; and a person who acted in good faith
and in a manner he reasonably believed to be in the interest of the participants
and beneficiaries of an employee benefit plan shall be deemed to have acted in a

this Article XI.

                                  ARTICLE XII

                                    NOTICES

     SECTION 12.1  NOTICE TO STOCKHOLDERS. Unless the Certificate of 
Incorporation requires otherwise, whenever, under any provisions of these 
Bylaws, notice is required to be given to any stockholder, it shall be given 
in writing, timely and duly deposited in the United States mail, postage 
prepaid, and addressed to such stockholder's last known post office address 
as shown by the stock record of the corporation or its transfer agent.

     SECTION 12.2  NOTICE TO DIRECTORS. Any notice required to be given to any
Director may be given by the method stated in Section 12.1, or by facsimile, 
telex or telegram, except that such notice other than one which is delivered 
personally shall be sent to such address as such Director shall have filed in 
writing with the Secretary, or, in the absence of such filing, to the last 
known post office address of such Director. It shall not be necessary that 
the same method of giving notice be employed in respect of all Directors, but 
one permissible method may be employed in respect of any one or more, and any 
other permissible method or methods may be employed in respect of any other 
or others.

     SECTION 12.3  ADDRESS UNKNOWN. If no address of a stockholder or 
Director be known, notice may be sent to the principal executive officer of 
the corporation.

     SECTION 12.4  AFFIDAVIT OF MAILING. An affidavit of mailing, executed by 
a duly authorized and competent employee of the corporation or its transfer 
agent appointed with respect to the class of stock affected, specifying the 
name and address or the names and addresses of the stockholder or 
stockholders, or Director or Directors, to whom any such notice or notices 
was or were given, and the time and method of giving the same, shall be 
conclusive evidence of the statements therein contained.

     SECTION 12.5  TIME NOTICES DEEMED GIVEN. All notices given by mail, as 
above provided, shall be deemed to have been given as at the time of mailing, 
and all notices given by facsimile, telex or telegram shall be deemed to have 
been given as of the sending time recorded at the time of transmission.

     SECTION 12.6  FAILURE TO RECEIVE NOTICE. The period or limitation of time
within which any stockholder may exercise any option or right, or enjoy any 
privilege or benefit, or be required to act, or within which any Director may 
exercise any power or right, or enjoy any 


                                        20

<PAGE>


privilege, pursuant to any notice sent such person in the manner above 
provided, shall not be affected or extended in any manner by the failure of 
such stockholder or such Director to receive such notice.

     SECTION 12.7  NOTICE TO PERSON WITH WHOM COMMUNICATION IS UNLAWFUL. 
Whenever notice is required to be given, under any provision of law or of the 
Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws of the corporation, to any person with 
whom communication is unlawful, the giving of such notice to such person 
shall not be required and there shall be no duty to apply to any governmental 
authority or agency for a license or permit to give such notice to such 
person. Any action or meeting which shall be taken or held without notice to 
any such person with whom communication is unlawful shall have the same force 
and effect as if such notice had been duly given. In the event that the 
action taken by the corporation is such as to require the filing of a 
certificate under any provision of the Delaware General Corporation Law, the 
certificate shall state, if such is the fact and if notice is required, that 
notice was given to all persons entitled to receive notice except such 
persons with whom communication is unlawful.

     SECTION 12.8  NOTICE TO PERSON WITH UNDELIVERABLE ADDRESS. Whenever 
notice is required to be given, under any provision of law or the Certificate 
of Incorporation or Bylaws of the corporation, to any stockholder to whom (i) 
notice of two consecutive annual meetings, and all notices of meetings to 
such person during the period between such two consecutive annual meetings, 
or (ii) all, and at least two, payments (if sent by first class mail) of 
dividends or interest on securities during a twelve-month period, have been 
mailed addressed to such person at such person's address as shown on the 
records of the corporation and have been returned undeliverable, the giving 
of such notice to such person shall not be required. Any action or meeting 
which shall be taken or held without notice to such person shall have the 
same force and effect as if such notice had been duly given. If any such 
person shall deliver to the corporation a written notice setting forth such 
person's then current address, the requirement that notice be given to such 
person shall be reinstated. In the event that the action taken by the 
corporation is such as to require the filing of a certificate under any 
provision of the Delaware General Corporation Law, the certificate need not 
state that notice was not given to persons to whom notice was not required to 
be given pursuant to this paragraph.

                                  ARTICLE XIII

                                   AMENDMENTS

     SECTION 13.1  AMENDMENTS. Except as otherwise set forth in Section 11.9 
of these Bylaws, these Bylaws may be amended or repealed and new Bylaws 
adopted by the Board of Directors or by the stockholders entitled to vote.

     SECTION 13.2  APPLICATION OF BYLAWS. In the event that any provisions of 
these Bylaws is or may be in conflict with any law of the United States, of 
the state of incorporation of the corporation or of any other governmental 
body or power having jurisdiction over this corporation, or over the subject 
matter to which such provision of these Bylaws applies, or may apply, such 
provision of these Bylaws shall be inoperative to the extent only that the 
operation 


                                     21

<PAGE>

thereof unavoidably conflicts with such law, and shall in all other respects 
be in full force and effect.

                                  ARTICLE XIV

                               LOANS TO OFFICERS

     The corporation may lend money to, or guarantee any obligation of, or
otherwise assist any officer or other employee of the corporation or of its
subsidiaries, including any officer or employee who is a Director of the
corporation or its subsidiaries, whenever, in the judgment of the Board of
Directors, such loan, guarantee or assistance may reasonably be expected to
benefit the corporation. The loan, guarantee or other assistance may be with or
without interest and may be unsecured, or secured in such manner as the Board of
Directors shall approve, including, without limitation, a pledge of shares of
stock of the corporation. Nothing in this Bylaw shall be deemed to deny, limit
or restrict the powers of guaranty or warranty of the corporation at common law
or under statute.

                                   ARTICLE XV

                                 ANNUAL REPORT

     At such time as the corporation becomes subject to the reporting
requirements of Rules 12(b) and 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934,
the Board of Directors shall cause an annual report to be sent to each
stockholder of the corporation not later than one hundred twenty (120) days
after the close of the corporation's fiscal year. Such report shall include a
balance sheet as of the end of such fiscal year and an income statement and
statement of changes in financial position for such fiscal year, accompanied by
any report thereon of independent accounts or, if there is no such report, the
certificate of an authorized officer of the corporation that such statements
were prepared without audit from the books and records of the corporation. Such
report shall be sent to stockholders at least fifteen (15) days prior to the
next annual meeting of stockholders after the end of the fiscal year to which it
relates. If and so long as there are fewer than 100 holders of record of the
corporation's shares, the requirement of sending of an annual report to the
stockholders of the corporation is hereby expressly waived.

                                      SUBLEASE 

     This Sublease is entered into effective as of April 1, 1999, at Travis
County, Texas by and between POWERSHIFT VENTURES, LLC, ("SUBLESSOR"), and
PERFICIENT, INC. ("SUBLESSEE").

                                     RECITALS:

     A.   Pursuant to the Office Building Lease Agreement dated October 15,
1998, between Sublessor, as tenant, and Austin Lakewood on the Park, Ltd., as
landlord (the "MAIN LEASE") Sublessor has leased certain premises described
therein consisting of 102,086 square feet of space (the "LEASED PREMISES"), in
the office building known as Building B of Lakewood on the Park in Austin, Texas
(the "BUILDING");

     B.   Hub Properties Trust ("LANDLORD") is the successor in interest to
Austin Lakewood on the Park, Ltd. and is the current owner of the Building and
the rights and interests of the landlord under the Lease; and

     C.   Sublessor desires to sublease the portion of the Leased Premises as
described on EXHIBIT A attached hereto (the "PREMISES"), together with the
office furniture and fixtures located therein, to Sublessee and Sublessee
desires to sublease the Premises from Sublessor, subject to and conditioned upon
agreements hereinafter set forth.

     In consideration of the mutual promises contained herein, Sublessor hereby
subleases the Premises to Sublessee, subject to the terms of the Main Lease, and
subject further to the provisions of this Sublease, as follows:

1.   PREMISES, COMMON AREAS.   During the term of this Sublease, Sublessee shall
     have the right to use and occupy the Premises and shall also have the right
     to use and occupy equally with Sublessor the front lobby, kitchens, and
     reasonable common areas in the Leased Premises.

2.   TERM AND TERMINATION.  The term of this Sublease shall commence as of April
     1, 1999 and shall continue from month to month thereafter unless terminated
     by either party on thirty (30) days written notice. 

3.   INCORPORATION OF MAIN LEASE.  Insofar as the provisions of the Main Lease
     do not conflict with the specific provisions of this Sublease, they and
     each of them are incorporated into this Sublease as if fully completely
     rewritten herein, and Sublessee agrees to be bound to the Sublessor with
     respect to the Premises by all the terms of the Main Lease and to assume
     towards Sublessor and perform all the obligations and responsibilities
     accruing from and after the commencement date of the term of this Sublease
     that Sublessor, by the Main Lease, assumes towards the Landlord, except for
     the payment of rent by Sublessee to Sublessor, which is governed by
     Paragraph 4 herein.  Terms not defined in this Sublease shall have the
     meanings given such terms in the Main Lease.  Sublessee agrees to look
     solely to Landlord for any and all remedies it may seek for any damages of
     any kind related to the Main Lease, except as expressly provided in this
     Sublease; provided, however, the foregoing shall not impair Sublessee's
     right to seek any remedies it may have against Sublessor due to Sublessor's
     breach of this Sublease.  Sublessor shall have no liability to Sublessee
     for any wrongful action or default on the part of Landlord pursuant to the
     terms of the Main Lease, and Sublessee hereby agrees to look solely to
     Landlord in event of any such wrongful action or default; provided,
     however, that Sublessor shall not do anything nor permit anything to be
     done that would cause the Main Lease to be terminated or forfeited because
     of any right of termination or forfeiture reserved or vested in Landlord,
     Sublessor, or any other party under the Main Lease. 

4.   RENT.  Sublessee agrees to pay to Sublessor in advance, on or before the
     first day of each month, rent in the amount of $2,200 per month. 

5.   EQUIPMENT, FIXTURES, FURNITURE, AND FURNISHINGS

     5.1  TITLE, USE, ENJOYMENT.  The parties recognize and acknowledge that
     Sublessor and/or its affiliates have placed certain equipment, fixtures,
     furniture and furnishings in service in the Leased Premises necessary for
     the operation of business offices in the Premises (the "PERSONAL
     PROPERTY"). Sublesseee agrees to use reasonable 


                                       1
<PAGE>

     care in the proper use and enjoyment of all Personal Property located 
     within the Premises and in the common areas. 
     
     5.2  ADDITIONAL PERSONAL PROPERTY. Sublessor or Sublessee may from time to
     time purchase additional personal property.  All such additional personal
     property shall be acquired by each party individually and not as tenants in
     common.

6.   ALTERATIONS AND IMPROVEMENTS; SUBLEASE.  Sublessee shall make no
     alterations or improvements to the Premises without Sublessor's and
     Landlord's prior written consent pursuant to the terms and provisions of
     the Main Lease (which consent by Sublessor shall not be unreasonably
     withheld or delayed); any permitted alterations or improvements shall be at
     Sublessee's sole cost and expense.  Sublessee may, without Landlord's
     consent, erect such shelves, bins, office equipment and trade fixtures as
     it desires, as may be permitted under the Main Lease.  Sublessee shall have
     no right to assign or sublet any interest in this Sublease without first
     obtaining the written consent of the Landlord and Sublessor, which consent
     may or may not be granted by the Landlord or Sublessor in their sole
     opinion, judgment or discretion.

7.   INSURANCE.  Sublessee agrees to cause Sublessor to be named as an
     additional insured and to provide Sublessor with proof of insurance on
     request.

8.   SEPARATE INDEPENDENT BUSINESSES.  The parties expressly agree that this
     Sublease shall not create nor be construed to create an employer/employee,
     principal/agent, shareholder, or partnership relationship.  It is further
     understood that no party has control over, or any influence upon any of the
     other parties or the employees and agents of the other parties with respect
     to the manner in which such parties carry on their respective businesses. 
     Each party agrees to conduct its separate business and agrees further not
     to give, or authorize any third party to give, any person or entity the
     express or implied understanding that it is associated or connected with
     the other parties in any fashion except as provided in this Sublease.

9.   DEFAULT.  The following events shall be deemed to be events of default by
     Sublessee under this Sublease: any events of default by Sublessee, listed
     as events of default by Tenant set forth in the Main Lease, or any default
     in the provisions of this Sublease.  Upon the occurrence of any such events
     of default, and in addition to any other available remedies provided by law
     or in equity, Sublessor shall have all remedies granted to Landlord in the
     Main Lease.

10.  BROKERS.  Sublessor and Sublessee warrant and represent to each other that
     no brokers are entitled to receive a commission in connection with this
     Sublease.  Each party hereto hereby indemnifies and holds the other party
     harmless from and against any and all claims for realtors' or brokers'
     commissions in connection with this Sublease made by parties claiming by,
     through or under the other party.
