(a) On March 16, 2010, Bruce Bennett filed a class action lawsuit in the Superior Court of the State of California, County of Santa Clara, purportedly on behalf of the stockholders of Chordiant Software, Inc. (Chordiant), against Chordiant, its directors, Pegasystems Inc. (Pegasystems) and Maple Leaf Acquisition Corp., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Pegasystems (Acquisition Sub), alleging, among other things, that Chordiant and its directors, aided and abetted by Pegasystems and Acquisition Sub, breached their fiduciary duties owed to Chordiant stockholders in connection with the proposed acquisition of Chordiant by Pegasystems and Acquisition Sub. The complaint seeks, among other things, to enjoin the defendants from completing the acquisition as currently contemplated. Chordiant intends to take all appropriate actions to defend the suit. It is possible that additional similar complaints may be filed in the future. If this does occur, Chordiant does not intend to announce the filing of any similar complaints unless they contain allegations that are substantially distinct from those made in the pending action.

Chordiant Software, Inc. et al. Case No. CV 08-0019 (N.D. Cal.). On March 17, 2010, the Court issued an Order rescheduling the trial, which is now set to commence on April 27, 2010.
