SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION
[File No. 1-15169]
Issuer Delisting; Notice of Application of Perficient, Inc. To
Withdraw Its Common Stock, $.001 Par Value, From Listing and
Registration on the Boston Stock Exchange, Inc.
March 9, 2005.
On February 15, 2005, Perficient, Inc. a Delaware corporation
(``Issuer''), filed an application with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (``Commission''), pursuant to Section 12(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (``Act'')\1\ and Rule 12d2-2(d)
thereunder,\2\ to withdraw its common stock, $.001 par value
(``Security''), from listing and registration on the Boston Stock
Exchange, Inc. (``BSE'').

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
On February 7, 2005, the Board of Directors (``Board'') of the
Issuer approved resolutions to withdraw the Security from listing and
registration on BSE. In making the decision to delist the Security from
BSE, the Issuer stated that the following reason factored into its
decision. Over the course of the past twelve months, the Issuer has
periodically reviewed its ability to comply with the listing standards
of Nasdaq National Market (``Nasdaq'') in order to move the listing of
the Security from Nasdaq SmallCap Market to the Nasdaq. The Issuer was
aware that once the Security was listed on Nasdaq, the Security would
then be a covered security pursuant to Sections 18(b)(1)(A) of the
Securities Act of 1933 (``Securities Act'')\3\ and the Issuer would no
longer need to maintain the listing of the Security on BSE to qualify
for the exemption provided by Section 18 of the Securities Act. In
December 2004, the Issuer determined that it met the criteria for
listing the Security on Nasdaq. In January 2005, the Issuer applied to
Nasdaq to move the listing of the Security to Nasdaq and to begin
trading of the Security from Nasdaq SmallCap Market to Nasdaq on
February 2, 2005. Concurrent with its decision to apply for listing the
Security on Nasdaq, the Issuer received a request from BSE on January
3, 2005 to update the Issuer's number of shares listed on BSE, to
confirm compliance with the corporate governance requirements of the
Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, and to confirm the current number of
beneficial holders of the Security. On February 3, 2005, the Issuer
notified BSE that the Security was listed on
[[Page 12761]]
Nasdaq and that the Issuer desired to voluntary delist from BSE.

\3\ 15 U.S.C. 77r Sec. 18(b)(1)(A).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Issuer stated in its application that it has complied with BSE
procedures for delisting by filing the required documents governing the
withdrawal of securities from listing and registration on BSE.
The Issuer's application relates solely to withdrawal of the
Security from listing on BSE and from registration under Section 12(b)
of the Act,\4\ and shall not affect its obligation to be registered
under Section 12(g) of the Act.\5\
