follows:

      1.    Separation. Effective as of June 23, 2004 (the "SEPARATION DATE"),
Executive hereby resigns from his positions as President and Chief Executive
Officer of the Company, from all other positions which Executive holds with the
Company, its subsidiaries or its affiliates, including Executive's position on
the Board of Directors of the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates, and
the Company hereby accepts such resignations as of the Separation Date.

      2,    Separation Benefits. (a) Subject to this Agreement becoming
effective and Executive's continued compliance with the provisions of this
Agreement and of the Confidentiality Agreement, the Executive shall be entitled
to the following:

                  (i)   The Company shall continue to pay Executive's current
            base salary for six months after the Separation Date for an
            aggregate payment of $125,000, payable in accordance with the
            Company's standard payroll practices.

                  (ii)  Promptly after the end of the Consulting Period and
            subject to repayment of the Loan, the Company shall pay Executive

            the Options listed on Exhibit A (including the Non-Plan Option)
            shall continue to vest on its current vesting schedule. At the end
            of the Consulting Period, the Options will cease vesting, and the
            vested portion of the Options will remain exercisable for the period
            specified in the applicable option agreement after termination of
            service (which is generally three months after termination of
            service).

                  (iv)  In accordance with the terms of the Options as
            previously modified by the Change of Control Agreement, in the event
            that a Change of Control (as defined in the Change of Control

            the Company's health plan (or the Company shall pay for Executive's
            continued coverage under COBRA at the same cost to Executive as
            before the Separation Date) until the earlier of (x) 12 months

            eligible for group health coverage with another employer.

                  (vi)  The Company shall reimburse Executive for actual
            attorney fees incurred in negotiating and finalizing this Agreement,
            in an amount not to exceed $10,000. The Company shall pay such
            amount directly to Executive's attorneys promptly upon receipt of an
            invoice for such attorney fees.

                  (vii) The Company shall allow Executive to retain the items
            identified on Exhibit B previously provided for his use and hereby
            transfers any ownership interest currently held by the Company in
            such items to Executive; provided that all confidential and/or
            proprietary information of the Company, its subsidiaries and its
            affiliated entities shall be removed from such items to the
            reasonable satisfaction of the Company.

                  (viii) With respect to the period of Executive's service as an
            officer or director of the Company, the Company agrees to use
            commercially reasonable efforts to cause Executive to continue to be
            covered under its director and officer insurance policies consistent
            with coverage afforded to the Company's other officers and directors
            during and for such time periods.

The Company's obligations to make any payments or provide any benefits
(including continued vesting of options) pursuant to this Section 2 are
expressly conditioned on Executive's continued compliance with the terms of this
Agreement.

            (b)   Executive understands and agrees with the following:

                  (i)   Executive agrees to repay the Loan promptly after the
            end of the Consulting Period (or such earlier date as may be
            required by the terms of the Loan Documents). Executive hereby
            authorizes and directs the Company to withhold, from the payments
            due to Executive pursuant to Section 2(a)(ii) above at the end of
            the Consulting Period, an amount equal to the outstanding balance of
            the Loan (including principal and accrued and unpaid interest) as of
            such date and to apply such amount to the repayment of the Loan.

                  (ii)  Executive will, within 2 business days after the
            execution and delivery of this Agreement, deliver the items set
            forth on Exhibit B to the Company for removal of confidential and/or
            proprietary information, and the Company shall return such items to
            Executive as promptly as is reasonably practicable thereafter.

                  (iii) Any stock options not exercised within three months
            after the Separation Date will be treated as non-qualified stock
            options for purposes of U.S. tax laws.

                                       3

                  (iv)  To Executive's knowledge, the Company has paid Executive
            all accrued compensation through the Separation Date.

      3.    Consultant . (a) Beginning as of the date hereof and ending on
December 23, 2004 (such period, the "CONSULTING PERIOD"), Executive agrees to
serve as a consultant to the Company and to render such advice and services to
the Company as may be reasonably required by the Company, taking into account
and making reasonable accommodation for Executive's other responsibilities and
commitments at the time. In this capacity, Executive shall report directly to
the Chairman of the Board of Directors.

            (b)   Executive shall be reimbursed in accordance with the policies
      of the Company for necessary and reasonable business expenses that are
      approved in advance by the Company and incurred by Executive in connection
      with the performance of Executive's duties hereunder.

            (c)   As a consultant, Executive shall not be an employee of the
      Company and shall not be entitled to participate in any employee benefit
      plans or other benefits or conditions of employment (including any bonus
      plans) available to the employees of the Company. Executive shall have no
      authority to act as an agent of the Company, except on authority
      specifically so delegated, and Executive shall not represent the contrary
      to any person. Executive shall not direct the work of any employee of the
      Company, or make any management decisions, or undertake to commit the
      Company to any course of action in relation to third persons.

      4.    Releases, (a) The parties acknowledges that the following releases
shall extend to unknown, as well as known claims, and hereby waives the
application of any provision of law, including, without limitation, Section 1542
of the California Civil Code, that purports to limit the scope of a general
release. Section 1542 of the California Civil Code provides:

            "A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES
            NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING
            THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY HIM MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS
            SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR."

            (b)   Executive agrees to and does fully and completely release,
      discharge and waive for himself and for his dependents, successors,
      assigns, heirs, executors and administrators (and his and their legal
      representatives of any kind), any and all claims, complaints, causes of
      action or demands of whatever kind, arising in Executive's capacity as an
      employee, officer or director of the Company, as a stockholder of the
      Company or otherwise in any capacity whatsoever, which Executive has or
      may have against the Company, its

                                       4
<PAGE>

      subsidiaries, divisions, subsidiaries, affiliates, predecessors and
      successors and all their officers, directors, employees, agents, counsel
      and other representatives by reason of any event, matter, cause or thing
      which has occurred prior to the effective date of this Agreement
      (hereinafter "EXECUTIVE CLAIMS"). Executive understands and accepts that
      this Agreement specifically covers, but is not limited to, any and all
      Executive Claims which Executive has or may have against the Company
      relating in any way to his employment arrangements, or to compensation, or
      to his equity interests in the Company, or to any other terms, conditions
      or circumstances of his former employment with the Company, and to the
      resignation of such employment, whether for severance or based on
      statutory or common law claims for employment discrimination (including
      discrimination on the basis of sex, age, religion or disability, including
      specifically any claims under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act
      (the "ADEA"), Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended or the
      Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990), wrongful discharge, breach of
      contract or any other theory, whether legal or equitable. Notwithstanding
      the foregoing, Executive does not waive any rights to which he may be
      entitled (i) to seek to enforce this Agreement, or (ii) to seek
      indemnification with respect to liability incurred by Executive in his
      capacity as an officer or director or former employee of the Company in
      accordance with the bylaws of the Company, the Indemnification Agreement
      and applicable law.

            (c)   Executive further understands and acknowledges that:

                  (i)   The release provided for in this Section, including
            claims under the ADEA, is in exchange for the additional
            consideration provided for in this Agreement to which Executive was
            not heretofore entitled;

                  (ii)  Executive has been advised by the Company to consult
            with legal counsel prior to executing this Agreement and the release
            provided for in this Section, has had an opportunity to consult with
            and to be advised by legal counsel of his choice, fully understands
            the terms of this Agreement, and enters into this Agreement freely,
            voluntarily and intending to be bound;

                  (iii) Executive has been given a period of 21 days to review
            and consider the terms of this Agreement and the release contained
            herein, and Executive may use as much of the 21-day period as
            Executive desires; and

                  (iv)  Executive may, within seven days after execution, revoke
            this Agreement by delivering a written notice of revocation to the
            Chief Financial Officer of the Company. For such revocation to be
            effective, written notice must be actually received by the Chief
            Financial Officer of the Company no later than the close of business
            on the seventh day after Executive executes the Agreement. If
            Executive does exercise his right

                                       5
<PAGE>

            to revoke this Agreement, all of the terms and conditions of the
            Agreement shall be of no force and effect and the Company shall have
            no obligation to satisfy the terms or provide any payments or
            benefits to Executive as set forth in this Agreement.

            (d)   The Company agrees to and does fully and completely release,
      discharge and waive any and all claims, complaints, causes of action or
      demands of whatever kind which the Company has or may have against
      Executive by reason of any event, matter, cause or thing related to
      Executive's employment or the termination thereof which has occurred prior
      to the date hereof (hereinafter "COMPANY CLAIMS") except any claims,
      complaints, causes of action or demands of whatever kind which are founded
      upon or relate to allegations of fraud or other criminal conduct in office
      or as a director, or conduct for which the Company, under applicable law,
      may not indemnify Executive in any action, suit or proceeding brought or
      threatened by a third party directly or in the right of the Company, or
      any claims relating to the Promissory Note executed by Executive in favor
      of the Company in the principal amount of $47,718 dated January 7, 1998
      (the "EXEMPT CLAIMS"). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company does not
      waive any rights to which it may be entitled to seek to enforce this
      Agreement.

      5.    Confidentiality; No Disparagement. (a) Except as otherwise required
by law, Executive agrees not to cause or participate in the publication to
anyone of any information, or otherwise communicate with any party, concerning
the Company, the facts underlying the termination of his employment with the
Company or the terms and conditions of this Agreement. This provision shall not
prevent Executive from disclosing such information to his legal counsel and
accountants in order to obtain professional advice or to his spouse; provided
that they are advised as to and agree to observe the confidentiality of such
information.

            (b)   Executive agrees that he shall not make negative statements or
      representations, or otherwise communicate negatively, directly or
      indirectly, in writing, orally, or otherwise, or take any action which
      may, directly or indirectly, disparage or be damaging to the Company, its
      subsidiaries, affiliates, successors or their officers, directors,
      employees, business or reputation.

            (c)   The Company agrees that it shall not, and shall not authorize
      any officer, director, or other representative of the Company to, make
      negative statements or representations, or otherwise communicate
      negatively, directly or indirectly, in writing, orally, or otherwise, or
      take any action which may, directly or indirectly, disparage or be
      damaging to Executive or his business or reputation.

            (d)   The parties acknowledge that the Company has provided notice
      to Executive of, and has issued, a press release dated June 24, 2004, and
      that nothing in such press release violates any provision of this
      Agreement.

                                       6
<PAGE>

      6.    Proprietary Information. Executive acknowledges and agrees that he
will continue to be bound by the Confidentiality Agreement. Executive has signed
and delivered to the Company a "Termination Certification" in the form attached
as Exhibit C to the Confidentiality Agreement (and attached as Exhibit C
hereto).

      7.    Non-Solicitation of Employees. Executive agrees, for a period of 12
months after the Separation Date, not to directly or indirectly solicit, induce,
recruit, or encourage any of the Company's employees to leave their employment,
or take away such employees, or attempt to solicit, induce, recruit, encourage
or take away employees of the Company, either for Executive or for any other
person or entity.

      8.    Cooperation. Executive agrees to provide assistance to and shall
cooperate with the Company upon its reasonable request with respect to matters
and specifically with respect to any claim, suit, demand, regulatory
investigation or other matter relating to Executive's employment or service as
an officer or director of the Company. The Company agrees and acknowledges that
it shall, to the maximum extent possible under then prevailing circumstances,
coordinate (or cause an affiliate to coordinate) any such request with
Executive's other commitments and responsibilities to minimize the degree to
which such request interferes with such commitments and responsibilities. The
Company shall pay Executive reasonable compensation to the extent Executive
provides such assistance after the Consulting Period that requires more than a
de minimis amount of time.

      9.    Breach of Agreement. If Executive breaches this Agreement, the
Consulting Period shall end as of, and the Company shall have no further
obligations to continue the benefits and payments pursuant to Section 2 hereof
after, the date of such breach; provided that if such breach is capable of being
cured without damage to the Company, Executive shall have 10 days after
receiving written notice of the alleged breach to cure such breach and if the
breach is not cured within such period of time, the Consulting Period shall end
as of, and the Company shall have no further obligations to continue the
benefits and payments pursuant to Section 2 hereof after, the date of such
breach. A written notice of the breach shall include language sufficient to
permit the recipient to understand the facts constituting the breach and the
provisions of this Agreement that are alleged to have been breached.

      10.   Arbitration and Remedies. (a) Any dispute or controversy arising out
of or relating to any interpretation, construction, performance or breach of
this Agreement shall be settled by arbitration to be held in Santa Clara County,
California, in accordance with the rules then in effect of the American
Arbitration Association. The arbitrator may grant injunctions or other relief in
such dispute or controversy. The decision of the arbitrator shall be final,
conclusive and binding on the parties to the arbitration. Judgment may be
entered on the arbitrator's decision in any court having jurisdiction. The
Company and Executive shall each pay one-half of the costs and expenses of such
arbitration, and each party shall separately pay its own counsel fees and
expenses.

                                       7
<PAGE>

            (b)   Executive acknowledges and agrees that the Company's remedies
      at law for a breach or threatened breach of any of the provisions of
      Sections 5, 6, 7, and 8 would be inadequate and, in recognition of this
      fact, Executive agrees that, in the event of a breach or threatened
      breach, in addition to any remedies at law, the Company, without posting
      any bond, shall be entitled to obtain equitable relief in the form of
      specific performance, temporary restraining order, temporary or permanent
      injunction or any other equitable remedy which may then be available.

            (c)   It is expressly understood and agreed that although Executive
      and the Company consider the restrictions contained in Sections 5, 6, 7,
      and 8 to be reasonable, if a final judicial determination is made by a
      court of competent jurisdiction or arbitrator that any restriction
      contained in this Agreement is an unenforceable restriction against
      Executive, the provisions of this Agreement shall not be rendered void but
      shall be deemed amended to apply to the maximum extent as such court or
      arbitrator determines or indicates to be enforceable. If any restriction
      contained in this Agreement is unenforceable, and such restriction cannot
      be amended so as to make it enforceable, such finding shall not affect the
      enforceability of any of the other restrictions contained herein.

      11.   Tax Withholding. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the
contrary, the Company shall be entitled to withhold from any amounts payable
under this Agreement, and shall pay over such amounts to the appropriate
government agency, all federal, state, city, or other taxes as are legally
required to be withheld.

      12.   Entire Agreement: Amendment. This Agreement, together with the
Confidentiality Agreement, contains the entire understanding of the parties with
respect to the termination of Executive's employment and supercedes all other
agreements between the Company and Executive related to Executive's severance or
termination rights (including but not limited to the Employment Agreement and
the Change of Control Agreement). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Confidentiality Agreement, the Indemnification Agreement, the Loan Documents,
and the agreements evidencing the Options shall remain in effect, except as
modified by this Agreement. This Agreement may not be altered, modified or
amended except by a written agreement signed by both parties hereto.

      13.   Effectiveness. Executive has been advised, and understands, that (i)
he has 21 days to consider this Agreement (which period shall be considered
waived should Executive execute this letter prior to the lapse of such 21 days),
(ii) Executive can revoke this Agreement (other than Section 1 hereof) during a
period of 7 days following its execution and (iii) this Agreement (other than
Section 1 hereof, which is effective as of the Separation Date) will become
effective and enforceable upon the expiration of such 7-day revocation period.

                                       8
<PAGE>

      14.   No Waiver. The failure of a party to insist upon strict adherence to
any term of this Agreement on any occasion shall not be considered a waiver of
such party's rights or deprive such party of the right thereafter to insist upon
strict adherence to that term or any other term of this Agreement.

      15.   Severability. In the event that any one or more of the provisions of
this Agreement shall be or become invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any
respect, the validity, legality or enforceability of the remaining provisions of
this Agreement shall not be affected thereby, provided that if the release set
forth in Section 4 hereof is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable and
Executive brings a claim against the Company otherwise released pursuant to
Section 4, the Consulting Period shall end and the Company shall have no
obligation to continue provide the payments and benefits set forth in Section 2
hereof, Executive shall repay to the Company amounts previously paid pursuant to
Section 2(a)(i), (ii), (v) and (vi) hereof, except that Executive shall be
entitled to retain an amount for any actual consulting services requested by the
Company and performed by Executive on the basis of the value of the services
provided (quantum meruit).

      16.   Assignment. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be
binding upon the parties hereto and their respective heirs, representatives,
successors and assigns. This Agreement shall not be assignable by Executive and
shall be assignable by the Company only to a direct or indirect wholly owned
subsidiary of the Company or to a successor of the Company.

      17.   Acknowledgment. Executive acknowledges that he has carefully read
this Agreement, fully understands and accepts all of its provisions and signs it
voluntarily of Executive's own free will. Executive further acknowledges that he
has been provided a full opportunity to review and reflect on the terms of this
Agreement and to seek the advice of legal counsel of his choice.

      18.   Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in
accordance with the laws of the State of California.

      19.   Counterparts. This Agreement may be signed in several counterparts,
each of which shall be an original, with the same effect as if the signatures
thereto and hereto were on the same instrument.

[CALLIDUS SOFTWARE LETTERHEAD]

July 14, 2004

Mr. David B. Pratt
12324 Melody Lane
Los Altos Hills, CA 94022

Dear David:

I am pleased to offer you the position of interim President and CEO, reporting
to the Board of Directors of Callidus Software Inc. The position will commence
not later than June 24, 2004, for an initial period of six months ("Initial
Employment") which may be terminated by either party upon thirty days' notice.
Thereafter, the parties may extend your employment upon mutually agreeable
terms.

Your starting salary will be $40,000.00 per month. As a further incentive,
effective July 31, 2004, you will be granted an option to purchase 120,000
shares of Callidus Software Inc. common stock which shall vest 20,000 shares per
month beginning on June 24, 2004, subject to the terms and conditions of the
Company's stock plan. These 120,000 options will also be subject to the change
of control provisions applicable to the executive management team as shall be
set forth under separate cover. All Board of Director options granted to you
prior to June 24, 2004, shall continue to vest under their terms. However, you
shall not be entitled to any other non-employee Director compensation (including
any new non-employee Director grants) during your Initial Employment or, should
your employment be extended, during any extension of your employment with the
Company. Your non-employee Director compensation shall resume following the
period of your employment with the Company, provided you remain a Director.

As a regular, full-time employee, you are eligible to participate in Callidus'
benefits programs, including medical, vision, and dental insurance, and 401 (k)
and ESPP plans, as set forth in our Callidus Benefits Guidebook. Our standard
policy requires that you participate in our direct deposit payroll program and
have a reasonably clean driving record and credit history.

We are an "at will" employer, which means that after your Initial Employment,
the employment relationship may be terminated at any time by either us or by
you, with or without notice and with or without cause. By signing below, you
acknowledge that after your Initial Employment, your employment is for an
unspecified duration, and neither this letter, nor your acceptance thereof,
constitutes a contract of employment.

In accordance with our standard policy, this offer is contingent upon your
completing and executing an Employment, Confidential Information and Invention
Assignment Agreement ("Employment Agreement") and upon your providing us with
the legally required proof of your identity. We also require proof of
eligibility to work in the United States.

David, on behalf of Callidus Software, we very much look forward to your
acceptance of this offer. I have enclosed two executed copies of this offer
letter. As evidence of your acceptance, please sign both letters and return one
original, along with the signed Employment Agreement, to Ron Fior, Chief
Financial Officer, not later than 5:00PM July 20, 2004.

Sincerely,

/s/ Michael A. Braun
Michael A. Braun
Chairman, Board of Directors

Agreed and Accepted: /s/ David B. Pratt                 Date: 7/19/04
                     ------------------

628, Pratt
