        10.60**
  **Chordiant
        Fiscal Year 2008 Executive Incentive Bonus Plan**
  **Executive
        Bonus Plan**
 The
        Executive Bonus Plan will cover all Executive Officers and Vice Presidents
        of
        the Company (excepting those paid on sales commission plans).  Bonuses
        under this plan will be calculated and paid (if applicable) quarterly based
        on
        corporate results filed on Forms 10-Q and 10-K versus Chordiant’s established
        FY2008 Financial Plan as compared against four quantitative measures: contract
        value (Bookings), GAAP Revenue, Non-GAAP Operating Profit, Cash Flow (as
        defined
        below) and one discretionary component managed by the Chief Executive Officer.
        Total bonuses paid for the fiscal year under the plan shall not exceed 300%
        of
        the bonus opportunity for any one individual.  Payment and earnings in
        any one quarter will be limited to a maximum of 100% of the participant’s
        targeted bonus for that quarter.  At the end of the fiscal year, the
        Company will calculate performance in total for the plan year and evaluate
        attainment against full plan year goals. Performance in excess of 100% of
        the
        total plan year goal, but no greater than 300% of the total plan year goal
        for
        each element or in aggregate,  will be paid not later than 60 days
        after fiscal year end (or later if audited results are not completed) according
        to the acceleration schedule for each measure.

 **Weighting
        – 10% for executives other than the CEO**
 
 This
        component is paid at the sole discretion of the CEO.  Should the
        quantitative metrics specified above justify a bonus payment above 100% for
        the
        quantitative portion of this bonus plan, then the payment under this opportunity
        increases proportionately.
 
 
 **Bookings**
 
 Contract
        value (“Bookings”) is a basis for measurement under the Executive Bonus
        Plan.  Bookings under this plan will be defined as the booking amount
        measured and represented by the non-cancelable portion of revenue under a
        contract or contracts plus executed statements of work.  The
        cancelable portion of a contract will receive booking credit when the customer
        and/or Chordiant performs tasks specified in the contract or a time limitation
        contained in the contract expires such that the contract relating to that
        portion of Bookings is no longer cancelable by the customer.  For each
        fiscal quarter, total Bookings will be determined utilizing the Company’s
        internal financial statements measured against the Company’s 2008 Annual
        Financial Plan.
 The
        portion of an executive’s bonus opportunity related to Bookings (a “Bookings
        Portion”) is determined and (if applicable) distributed equally across the
        fiscal year, with 25% of the Bookings Portion eligible for payment each
        quarter.  Whether the Bookings Portion qualifies for payment, however,
        is determined entirely by actual Company performance against the Company’s
        Bookings goals according to the following schedule:
  ·  If
        the Company does not achieve at least 80% of its Bookings goal for the quarter,
        then none of the Bookings Portion will qualify for payment that
        quarter.
  ·  If
        the Company achieves at least 80% of its Bookings goal for the quarter, but
        less
        than 100% of its Bookings goal for the quarter, then 50% of an executive’s
        target for the Bookings Portion will qualify for payment, with an additional
        2.5% of an executive’s target for the Bookings Portion qualifying for payment
        for each 1% above 80% to 100% of the Bookings goal that was achieved for
        the
        quarter.
  ·  If
        the Company achieves greater than 100% of its Bookings goal but less than
        120%
        of its Bookings goal, then an additional 5% of an executive’s target will
        qualify for payment after year end for each 1% above 100% of Bookings goal
        to
        120% of Bookings goal. From 120% of Bookings goal to 130% of Bookings
        goal,  an additional 10% of an executive’s target will qualify for
        payment after year end for each 1% above 120% of Bookings goal to 130% of
        Bookings goal until the maximum payout of 300% is reached.
  
 **Revenue**
 Revenue
        is the second measure for the Executive Bonus Plan and is defined as revenue
        as
        recognized under GAAP on the Company’s quarterly consolidated statement of
        operations in $US.
 
 ·  If
        the Company does not achieve at least 80% of its revenue goal for the quarter,
        then none of the Revenue Portion will qualify for payment that
        quarter.
  ·  If
        the Company achieves at least 80% of its revenue goal for the quarter then
        25%
        of an executive’s target for the revenue portion will qualify for payment, with
        an additional 3.75% of an executive’s target for the revenue portion qualifying
        for payment for each 1% above 80% of revenue goal to 100% of the revenue
        goal
        that was achieved for the quarter.
  ·  If
        the Company achieves greater than 100% of its revenue goal, then an additional
        5% of an executive’s target will qualify for payment after year end for each 1%
        above 100% of revenue goal until the payment of 200% at 120% of goal is reached.
        From 120% of revenue goal to 130% of revenue goal, then an additional 10%
        of an
        executive’s target will qualify for payment after year end for each 1% above
        120% of Revenue goal to 130% of revenue goal until the maximum payout of
        300% is
        reached.
  
  
  
  **Non
        GAAP Operating Profit**
  Non-GAAP
        Operating Profit is the third measure for the Executive Bonus Plan and is
        defined as Non-GAAP Operating Profit reported on  the Company’s
        quarterly Non-GAAP consolidated statement of operations in
        $US.  Historically, these Non-GAAP results exclude amortization of
        intangible assets and capitalized software development, stock-based compensation
        and other non-recurring charges.
 
 ·  If
        the Company does not achieve at least 80% of its Non-GAAP Operating Profit
        goal
        for the quarter, then none of the Non-GAAP Operating Profit portion will
        qualify
        for payment that quarter.
  ·  If
        the Company achieves at least 80% of its Non-GAAP Operating
        Profit  goal for the quarter then 25% of an executive’s target for the
        Non-GAAP Operating profit portion will qualify for payment, with an additional
        3.75% of an executive’s target for the Non-GAAP operating profit portion
        qualifying for payment for each 1% above 80% of revenue goal to 100% of the
        Non-GAAP Operating Profit goal that was achieved for the quarter.
  **·**  If
        the Company achieves greater than 100% of its Non-GAAP Operating Profit goal,
        then an additional 5% of an executive’s target will qualify for payment after
        year end for each 1% above 100% of Non-GAAP Operating Profit goal until the
        payment of 200% at 120% of goal is reached. From 120% of Non-GAAP Operating
        Profit goal to 130% of Non-GAAP Operating Profit goal, then an additional
        10% of
        an executive’s target will qualify for payment after year end for each 1% above
        120% of Non-GAAP Operating profit goal to 130% of Non-GAAP Operating Profit
        goal
        until the maximum payout of 300% is reached.
  **Cash
        Flow**
  Cash
        Flow is the fourth  measure for the Executive Bonus Plan and is
        defined as the periodic Change in Reported Cash, Cash Equivalents, Marketable
        Securities and Restricted Cash)  reported on  the Company’s
        quarterly consolidated statement of balance sheets in $US.
 
 ·  If
        the Company does not achieve at least 80% of its revenue goal for the quarter,
        then none of the Revenue Portion will qualify for payment that
        quarter.
  ·  If
        the Company achieves at least 80% of its Non-GAAP Operating Profit goal for
        the
        quarter then 25% of an executive’s target for the Non-GAAP Operating profit
        portion will qualify for payment, with an additional 3.75% of an executive’s
        target for the Non-GAAP operating profit portion qualifying for payment for
        each
        1% above 80% of revenue goal to 100% of the Non-GAAP Operating Profit goal
        that
        was achieved for the quarter.
  ·  If
        the Company achieves greater than 100% of its Cash Flow goal, then an additional
        5% of an executive’s target will qualify for payment after year end for each 1%
        above 100% of Cash Flow goal until the payment of 200% at 120% of goal is
        reached. From 120% of Cash Flow goal to 130% of  Cash Flow goal, then
        an additional 10% of an executive’s target will qualify for payment after year
        end for each 1% above 120% of Cash Flow goal to 130% of Cash Flow goal until
        the
        maximum payout of 300% is reached.
  **Calculations**
 
 Calculations
        of quarterly payouts will be done on a quarterly stand-alone basis. At the
        end
        of the fiscal year the calculation of any payment in excess of 100% will
        be
        based on the results for the full year.  Executives joining the Company
        mid-year will only be entitled to a pro-rata portion of the bonus amount
        that
        exceeds 100%.
 
 
 **Payment**
  The
        final decision to pay a bonus will remain the decision of the Board of Directors
        or the Compensation Committee if so delegated by the Board.  The Board
        may in its own discretion, determine to pay or not pay a bonus based upon
        the
        factors listed above or other Company performance criteria it deems
        appropriate.  The factors listed above are guidelines to assist the
        Board, or the Committee, as the case may be, in its judgment but the final
        decision to pay or not pay is in the discretion the Board.  In its
        discretion, the Committee may recommend, and the Board has the authority
        to
        approve, a payment of up to 50% of an executive’s bonus opportunity to an
        individual(s) without regard to the performance criteria set forth in this
        plan.
 
 Bonuses
        are generally calculated within thirty (30) days after the end of any given
        quarter and are generally paid within forty-five (45) days after the end
        of a
        given quarter, and generally not later than 60 days following the end of
        such
        quarter.  Bonuses are then paid in the next regularly-scheduled
        paycheck.  Payment for achievement of greater than 100% of plan goal
        generally will be made not later than 60 days following the close of the
        Company’s fiscal year.  These payment dates are contingent upon the
        Company filing its periodic forms 10-Q and 10-K.
  No
        bonus is earned until it is paid under this plan.  Therefore, in the
        event the employment of an executive eligible under this plan  is
        terminated (either by the Company or by the eligible executive, whether
        voluntarily or involuntarily) before a bonus is paid, then the executive
        will
        not be deemed to have earned that bonus, and will not be entitled to any
        portion
        of that bonus.
  Questions
        regarding the Plan should be directed to the Chief Executive Officer or the
        Vice
        President of Human Resources.  Acceptance of payment(s) under the Plan
        constitutes full and complete acceptance of its terms and
        conditions.  Any eligible employee wishing to not participate in the
        Plan must notify the Vice President, Human Resources in writing of their
        desire
        and intent.
  Nothing
        in this Plan is intended to alter the at-will nature of employment with the
        Company, that is, the executive’s right or the Company’s right to terminate the
        executive’s employment at will, at any time with or without cause or advance
        notice.  In addition, acceptance of this Plan shall not be construed
        to imply a guarantee of employment for any specified period of
        time.
  This
        Plan contains the entire agreement between the Company and its executives
        on
        this subject, and supersedes all prior bonus compensation plans or programs
        of
        the Company and all other previous oral or written statements regarding any
        such
        bonus compensation programs or plans.
  The
        contents of this Plan are Company confidential.  This Plan shall be
        governed by and construed under the laws of the State of
        California.
