each Ness Associate who is transferred from the Chordiant - EPC in Bangalore,
India to work on a customer project or an internal Chordiant project for an
engagement of pre-determined duration of three months or less, such Ness
Associate will be paid at the same rate as if the Ness Associate was still
located at the Chordiant – EPC in Bangalore, India and will be entitled to
reimbursement for their travel and lodging expenses.  The provisions
of the preceding sentence shall supersede the provisions of Section 2 and 3
above.  Additionally, Chordiant will be invoiced for such Ness
Associate under the applicable Line of Business SOW for the EPC, not under this
Professional Services Line of Business SOW.  If, however, at the end
of the pre-determined three month period, the Ness Associate who transferred

policy for such resource will be subject to the applicable provisions of Section

    c.           At
the end of any engagement by a Ness Associate who is transferred from the
Chordiant – EPC in Bangalore, India, (i) they may return to the Chordiant – EPC
in Bangalore, India, or (ii) they may added to Exhibit A hereto, as determined
by Chordiant in its sole discretion on a case-by-case basis.

    7. Travel
and Expense Policy.

     

    Travel & Expenses
(T&E):  Chordiant will reimburse Ness for travel, lodging
and per diem expenses of each Ness Associate deployed to a Chordiant customer
location at actual costs as per Chordiant’s travel and expense
policy.  In the case that Chordiant has agreed with a customer to use
their travel and expense policy, such travel and expense policy will take
precedence over Chordiant’s travel and expense policy, as long as the customer
travel and expense policy is consistent with the agreed upon intentions of Ness
and Chordiant, and is generally consistent with industry
practices.  Expenses for Ness Associates living in the city where the
customer location is will not be reimbursed unless such expenses are reimbursed
by the customer.

     

    All
Travel and Expenses will be pre-approved by the Chordiant Project Manager or the
Chordiant PSO Program Manager, and these will be used as the basis for billing
T&E to Chordiant. All other

    T&E
(Visa, flybacks to India, or other non-billable (to Chordiant customer) travel)
must be pre-approved by the Chordiant PSO Program
Manager or the VP of North America Consulting.

     

    Time
Sheets will be approved by Chordiant Professional Services Manager, and these
will be used as the basis for billing Service Fees to Chordiant.

     

    8.           Billing
Frequency

     

    Ness
will bill Chordiant for services on a monthly basis, to be paid Net 30 days of
date of receipt of Invoice.

     

    Travel
& Expenses (T&E) will be billed to Chordiant on a two week basis to be
paid Net 15 days of Date of Invoice.  The Ness Associates will be
required to enter all time and expense information into Chordiant’s T&E
system, OpenAir, within 1 business day following month-end.  Chordiant
will issue an electronic mail reminder to all Ness Associates that have not
submitted their time information within 3 business days from the end of the
billing cycle.  The Ness Associates will be required to input all of
their time by close of business the second business day after the month
close. The Ness Associates will be required to input all of their expenses by
close of business the fifth business day after the month
close. Failure to enter time or expense in a timely manner will result in
the forfeiture of fees or out-of-pocket expenses. If an expense report is
submitted after the fifth business day after the month close, due to a Chordiant
internal issue or an operational failure of the time entry system, or a delay in
receiving invoices or bills from third party vendors, such amounts will not
result in forfeiture.

     

    9.           Quality
and Remedy:

     

    From
and after the Effective Date, in case of a performance
issue with any Ness Associate(s) identified in writing by Chordiant to Ness,
Chordiant may place such Ness Associate(s) in a “Remedy Period” of two (2)
weeks.  Chordiant and Ness shall mutually agree on what remedial
action should be taken with respect to such Ness Associate(s) during the Remedy
Period.  Upon completion of the Remedy Period, the Ness Associate will
be either reassigned to an assignment or terminated by Chordiant. All the above
actions (identification of performance issue, completion of the Remedy Period,
the action taken after the Remedy Period) will be taken upon notification to
Ness by Chordiant, and will be accompanied by all the required supporting
documentation.

     

    During
the Remedy Period the Associate can either be onsite or be sent back to
Ness–India, as determined by Chordiant in its sole discretion. Upon completion
of the Remedy Period, in case the Program Managers agree to terminate the Ness
Associate, Chordiant will pay 50% of all services fees incurred while the Ness
Associate was onsite during the Remedy Period, but will not pay any services
fees while the Ness Associate was offshore during the Remedy
Period.  After the Remedy Period, Chordiant may also place a Ness
Associate on unpaid status, pending assignment to his or her next internal or
customer project.

     

    10.           Personnel
Equipment

     

    Ness
will provide the appropriate infrastructure (laptop computer, software) for all
Ness Associates.  Ness will provide the desktops to the Ness
Associates while working at Ness-Mumbai. Ness will also provide network
connectivity between the Chordiant-EPC in Bangalore-India and
Ness-Mumbai.
