Rigrodsky & Long, P.A. Announces Investigation Of Chordiant Software, Inc.

Rigrodsky & Long, P.A. announces that it is investigating potential claims against the board of directors of Chordiant Software, Inc. (“Chordiant” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: CHRD) concerning possible breaches of fiduciary duty and other violations of law related to the Company’s entry into an agreement to be acquired by Pegasystems Inc. (“Pegasystems”) in a transaction valued at approximately $161.5 million.

Under the proposed agreement, Pegasystems will make a cash tender offer of $5.00 per share for each share of Chordiant common stock outstanding. Upon satisfaction of the conditions to the tender offer and after such time as all shares tendered in the tender offer are accepted for payment, the agreement provides for the parties to effect, subject to customary conditions, a merger to be completed following the completion of the tender offer which would result in all shares not tendered in the tender offer being converted into the right to receive $5.00 per share in cash.

If you own the common stock of Chordiant and purchased your shares before March 15, 2010, if you have information or would like to learn more about these claims, or if you wish to discuss these matters or have any questions concerning this announcement or your rights or interests with respect to these matters, please contact Seth D. Rigrodsky, Esquire or Noah R. Wortman, Case Development Director, of Rigrodsky & Long, P.A., 919 N. Market Street, Suite 980, Wilmington, Delaware, by telephone at [phone], or by e-mail to [e-mail].
