Dear Joe,

This letter confirms our offer of employment to you as Senior Vice President and
Chief Financial Officer with Sapient Corporation ("Sapient" or the "Company") in
our offices located in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Your anticipated start date is
October 30, 2006. If you accept the offer of employment, your base compensation
will consist of an annualized base salary of $350,000 ($29,166 per month), paid
in accordance with Sapient's regular payroll practices. This offer is contingent
upon satisfactory results of a background check, which will include (but not
necessarily be limited to) a check on your educational and criminal history, as
well as your execution of the Sapient Confidentiality Agreement and the Sapient
Fair Competition Agreement, as described below.

In addition to your base salary, you will be granted 400,000 restricted stock
units (the "Performance RSUs") of Sapient Corporation common stock. The grant
date will be the first NASDAQ trading day in the month immediately following
your start date. Your Performance RSUs will vest in the following amounts if and
when the average 30-day closing price of the Company common stock on the Nasdaq
Stock Market (or principal market upon which the common stock trades) equals or
exceeds the following per share prices, provided you are still employed by the
Company on each such vesting date:

        100,000                               20.00
</TABLE>

Any Performance RSUs that have not vested on the fourth anniversary of the date
of grant shall be forfeited.

In addition to the Performance RSUs, you will be granted 75,000 restricted stock
units (the "Time-Based RSUs") of common stock (the "Initial Grant"). The grant
date for the Initial Grant will be the first NASDAQ trading day in the month
immediately following your start date. Your Initial Grant of Time-Based RSUs
will vest in two tranches: 25,000 shares will vest on the last day of the 18th
month following the grant date and 50,000 shares will vest on the day before the
3d anniversary of the grant date, provided you are still employed by the Company
on each such vesting date. You will receive an additional RSU Award of 75,000
Time-Based RSUs on each of the first and second anniversaries of the grant date
of the Initial Grant, on terms identical to those of the Initial Grant. You must
sign the Sapient standard form of RSU agreement in order for all grants of
Performance RSUs and Time-Based RSUs to become effective. This standard form
will be sent electronically by Sapient's 3rd party

equity administrator within sixty days of the Grant Date. The RSUs are subject
to the terms and conditions in such RSU agreement and any other restrictions or
limitations generally applicable to equity held by Company executives or
otherwise required by law.

You will also be eligible to earn up to four weeks paid vacation per calendar
year on a pro rata basis, in accordance with Sapient's current vacation policy.

You will be eligible to participate in Sapient's medical, dental, disability and
life insurance plans during your employment, subject to the terms of the
applicable plan documents and generally applicable Company policies. The
effective date of your participation in Sapient's medical, dental, disability
and life insurance plans will be the first day of the month following your start
date. The eligibility requirements and terms and conditions of the medical,
dental, disability and life insurance plans are set forth in their respective
summary plan descriptions, which are available from the Benefits Team.

In addition to your base compensation, you will be eligible to begin
participation in Sapient's 2006 bonus program. Specifically, you will be
eligible to participate in the 2006 Performance Bonus Plan (the "Bonus Plan"),
subject to the specific terms of the Bonus Plan, as well as in any future
incentive programs that may be made available to you in the Company's discretion
and for which you are eligible. You will be on the Director/VP Track, as
described in the Bonus Plan. As a participant on the Director/VP Track under the
current Bonus Plan, you will have a target bonus opportunity for 2006 of
$175,000 (guaranteed pro rated for the partial year of service), subject to the
specific terms and conditions of the Bonus Plan. Your target bonus for 2007 will
be no less than $175,000. Any amounts payable under the Bonus Plan shall be
payable not later than two and one-half months following the end of the fiscal
year for which the bonus was earned.

During your employment, you will also be eligible to participate in Sapient's
Employee Stock Purchase Plan ("ESPP") and 401(k) Savings Plan pursuant to the
terms of those plans. At this time, the ESPP permits a qualified participant to
purchase Sapient stock from the company at a 15% discount through payroll
deductions of up to 10% of a participant's cash compensation. At this time,
under the 401(k) Plan, Sapient may contribute $0.25 for every $1.00 you
contribute to your Sapient 401(k) account, up to a maximum Sapient contribution
of $1,250 per year. You will receive more detailed information about these and
other Sapient benefit programs at the beginning of your employment. Any
additional questions about our benefits can be directed to the Benefits Team.

Should a Change in Control, as defined below, occur and/or your employment with
Sapient end for one of the reasons specified below, Sapient agrees to provide
you with severance/Change in Control payments and benefits as detailed below;
provided, however, that any obligation of the Company to provide you with any
such pay and benefits is expressly conditioned upon your signing and returning
to the Company a timely and effective release of claims in the form provided by
the Company, and upon your continued compliance with your obligations to the
Company, including but not limited to your obligations pursuant

                                       2

to the Sapient Confidentiality Agreement and the Sapient Fair Competition
Agreement. For purposes of this letter, the general terms of such payments and
benefits are set forth below, although it is contemplated that these terms will
be memorialized in a separate agreement to be signed as soon as practicable
after you commence employment. The triggers for your entitlement to Change in
Control and post-termination payments and benefits are as follows. It is
understood and agreed that if your employment terminates for any reason other
than those set forth specifically below, you will not be eligible for any
severance or Change in Control payments or benefits, and your participation in
all of the Company's benefit plans shall terminate pursuant to the terms of the
applicable plans, except for any right you may have to continue medical or
dental plan participation pursuant to applicable law:

                  responsibilities, a change in your title or reporting
                  requirements from those in effect on your start date
                  (excluding an isolated, insubstantial and inadvertent action
                  not taken in bad faith and which is remedied by the Company

the first 18 months following the grant date, 25,000 shares will vest and 50,000
will be forfeited; if after the first 18 months but before the third anniversary
of the grant date, the next 50,000 will vest);

be payable to you. All other Performance RSUs will be forfeited;

      (5) for a period of eighteen months following the date of termination, you
will be entitled to participate in Sapient's medical, dental, disability and
life insurance plans, subject to any employee contribution applicable to you on
the date of termination; and your 401(k) plan will continue to vest, provided
you are eligible to continue such participation and vesting under applicable law

DEFINITION OF "CHANGE IN CONTROL"

A "Change in Control" shall be deemed to have occurred if any two or more of the
following events occur:

      -     Acquisition by a person or group (other than the two current largest

            outstanding shares of common stock,

      -     A change in a majority of the non-employee directors over a one-year
            period (other than by reason of election or nomination by directors
            constituting a majority of the directors on your start date or
            directors who were chosen by those directors),

                                       4
<PAGE>

      -     A merger, consolidation or other corporate transaction that results
            in shareholders before the transaction constituting less than 65% of
            the shareholders following the transaction,

      -     A liquidation or a sale of all or substantially all of Sapient's
            assets, or

      -     A determination by the Board of Directors that a change in control
            has occurred.

In the event of a Change in Control while you are employed hereunder, all of
your outstanding Performance RSUs and Time-Based RSUs shall become vested
effective as of the date of such Change in Control, provided, however, that no
benefits are payable to you under a separate plan or agreement as a result of
such Change in Control.

In addition, if a Change in Control occurs during your employment hereunder and
within two (2) years following such Change in Control your employment is
terminated by the Company without Cause (as defined above) or by you for Good
Reason (as defined below), then in lieu of any other severance payments or
benefits, pursuant to this agreement or otherwise, the Company will pay you a
lump-sum payment in cash equal to two hundred percent (200%) of your
then-current base salary and target bonus, subject to applicable withholding and
other customary deductions, within fifteen (15) days after such termination.

For purposes of termination by you for Good Reason following a Change in
Control, Good Reason is defined as any of the following, without your consent:

      (a)   Material diminution in the nature or scope of your responsibilities,
            duties or authority from those in effect on your start date,
            excluding an isolated, insubstantial and inadvertent action not
            taken in bad faith and which is remedied by the Company promptly
            after receipt of notice by yout thereof;

      (b)   Reducing your base salary;

      (c)   Reducing your targeted annual bonus opportunity;

      (d)   Failing to maintain your participation in the Company's long-term
            incentive plan, as amended from time to time in the Company's sole
            discretion, in a manner that is consistent with the participation of
            other senior executives at the Company;

      (e)   Failing to maintain the aggregate amount of your benefits under or
            relative level of participation in the Company's employee benefit or
            retirement plans, policies, practices, or arrangements in which you
            participate as of your start date;

      (f)   Relocation of the your principal place of business to a distance
            greater than 50 miles from the location in effect on your start
            date.

                                       5

The severance and Change in Control payments and benefits described above are
intended to be exempt from Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as
amended ("Section 409A"), pursuant to the short-term deferral provisions
thereof, and shall be construed accordingly. In the event that the Company
reasonably determines that such payments are subject to Section 409A, any and
all such amounts that constitute deferred compensation subject to Section 409A
and that would (but for this sentence) be payable within six months following
separation from service (as defined in Section 409A), shall instead be paid on
the date that follows the date of such separation from service by six (6)
months.

to the success of Sapient since its inception;

      WHEREAS, Greenberg has resigned from the positions of Chief Executive

<PAGE>

            4. Place of Performance/Computer/Executive Assistant. Greenberg

services hereunder and for such other uses he may choose, Sapient hereby agrees
to transfer to Greenberg all right, title and interest in the laptop computer
previously provided to him by Sapient; provided, however, that (i) Sapient's
obligation to transfer the laptop computer is conditioned upon its ability,

software licenses necessary to permit the transfer and (ii) prior to such
transfer, Sapient shall have the right to make a copy (or an "image") of the
hard drive of the laptop computer. Greenberg shall also be entitled to continue

to Greenberg, as compensation for the services to be performed by Greenberg
hereunder, an hourly consulting fee of $750.00; provided, however, Sapient shall

State income tax, Social Security tax, Unemployment Insurance tax, and any other
taxes or business license fees as required.

                  (b) Business Expenses. Sapient shall reimburse Greenberg for
all business expenses reasonably incurred by him in connection with his
performance of consulting services hereunder at actual cost.

                  (c) Group Medical Benefits. Greenberg shall be entitled to

the provisions of the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985
("COBRA"), such continuation coverage shall be at Greenberg's expense, and in
all respects be subject to the requirements, conditions and limitations of COBRA
and such plans, which may be amended from time to time.

                                                                               2

                  (a) Greenberg agrees that any material nonpublic information
concerning the business and affairs of Sapient ("Confidential Information")
shall be treated by Greenberg in full confidence and shall not be revealed to
any other individual, partnership, company or other organization except as may
be required by law, as directed by any regulatory authority or by order of any
court. Prior to disclosing any Confidential Information to a court or other
governmental authority, Greenberg shall notify Sapient so that Sapient may
protect any rights it may have, including by seeking a protective order or other
appropriate remedy or relief. This restriction shall continue to apply after the
termination of this Agreement, regardless of the reason for such termination.

                  (b) Greenberg will comply with the policies and procedures of
Sapient for protecting Confidential Information, including but not limited to
the Company's insider trading policy and the Company's Code of Ethics and
Conduct, and shall not use any Confidential Information for his own benefit or
gain.

                  (c) All documents, records, tapes and other media of every
kind and description relating to the business, present or otherwise, of Sapient
and any copies, in whole or in part, thereof (the "Documents"), whether or not
prepared by Greenberg, shall be the sole and exclusive property of Sapient.
Greenberg shall safeguard all Documents and shall surrender to Sapient at the
termination of this Agreement, or at such earlier time or times as the Board or
its designee may specify, all Documents then in Greenberg's possession or
control. For purposes of clarity, personal files and documents unrelated to the
business of Sapient on the laptop computer to be transferred under this
Agreement are not Documents.

            7. Restrictive Covenants. Greenberg shall not, during the Term,
without the prior written approval of the Board, directly or indirectly become
an officer, employee, agent, partner or director of, or serve as a consultant
for any other business that competes directly or indirectly with Sapient and
shall not undertake any planning for any business competitive with Sapient.

            8. Successors; Binding Agreement.

                  (a) This Agreement shall be binding on Sapient's successors,
and Sapient shall require any successor to all or substantially all of the
business or assets of Sapient to expressly assume and agree to perform this
Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that Sapient would be
required to perform it if no such succession had taken place. Except pursuant to
the foregoing sentence, neither Greenberg nor Sapient shall be permitted to
assign this Agreement or any rights or obligations hereunder.

                  (b) This Agreement and all rights of Greenberg hereunder shall
inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Greenberg's personal or legal
representatives, executors, administrators, successors, heirs, distributees,
devisees and legatees. This Agreement is personal to and may not be assigned by
Greenberg.

                                                                               3
<PAGE>

            9. Termination. Greenberg's engagement as a consultant hereunder and
the Term may be terminated by either Sapient or Greenberg at any time upon
written notice to the other party hereto. The Term shall terminate automatically
on the death or Disability of Greenberg. "Disability" shall mean an illness,
injury or other incapacitating condition as a result of which Greenberg is
unable to perform the consulting services required to be performed during the
Term for a continuous period of forty-five (45) days.

            10. Modification; Waiver; Discharge. No provisions of this Agreement
may be modified, waived or discharged unless such waiver, modification or
discharge is agreed to in writing signed by the parties hereto. No waiver by a
party hereto at any time of any breach by the other party hereto of, or
