Item 4.01 CHANGES IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT.
(b) New Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
Effective July 1, 2005, the Audit Committee of Chordiant Software, Inc. ("Chordiant") engaged BDO Seidman, LLP ("BDO Seidman") as Chordiant's new independent registered public accounting firm.
During Chordiant's two most recently completed fiscal years, which ended December 31, 2003 and September 30, 2004, and through the subsequent interim period, neither Chordiant nor anyone on its behalf consulted BDO Seidman regarding either (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed; or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on Chordiant's financial statements, nor has BDO Seidman provided to Chordiant a written report or oral advice regarding such principles or audit opinion; or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions thereto) or a reportable event (as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).
Chordiant requested that BDO Seidman review this filing and provided BDO Seidman with the opportunity to furnish Chordiant with a letter addressed to the SEC containing any new information, clarification of Chordiant's expression of its views, or the respects in which it does not agree with the statements made by Chordiant in this filing. BDO Seidman has advised Chordiant that it has reviewed this filing and has no basis on which to submit a letter addressed to the SEC in response to Item 304 of Regulation S-K.
