Item 1.01  Entry into Material Definitive Agreement
  
Agreement with Wellpoint, Inc.
 
On June 29, 2007, Chordiant Software, Inc (the “Company”) entered into a Master Agreement and a related Order Schedule (collectively, the “Agreement”) with a new customer, Wellpoint, Inc..

The material terms of the Agreement are:
 
1. The Company has granted perpetual licenses for Foundation Server, associated server and tool products, and Chordiant Call Center Advisor Browser Edition to WellPoint, Inc. and its affiliates (“WellPoint”). WellPoint is a health insurance benefits company serving the needs of millions of members in the United States.
 
2. In consideration for the licenses, Wellpoint will pay the Company a license fee of $12.0 million. The initial payment of $6.0 million is due September 15, 2007. The remaining balance due is payable in two installments over the next twelve months.

3. There will be no charge for support and maintenance through December 31, 2007. For the period of January 1, 2008 through December 31, 2008 support and maintenance will be purchased by Wellpoint for a fee payable to the Company equal to $1.8 million per annum. The initial annual fee is due on or before December 31, 2007.


Anticipated Accounting Treatment for Financial Reporting Purposes:

Because support and maintenance is being provided at no cost through December 31, 2007, a portion of the license fees, currently estimated to aggregate approximately $0.9 million, will be reallocated to support and maintenance revenue and recognized over the approximate six month period ending December 31, 2007. It is anticipated that the remaining license revenues of approximately $11.1 million will be recognized for financial statement purposes under the percentage of completion method of accounting. While many factors can impact the amount of revenue recognized in any particular quarterly time period, currently the Company anticipates that the implementation period will be approximately one year. Due to the timing of the Agreement, license revenues associated with this transaction for the quarter ended June 30, 2007 are not expected to be significant.
