Item 3.01   Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

On February 18, 2005, Chordiant Software, Inc. (the "Company" or "Chordiant") disclosed that the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Department notified the Company on February 15, 2005 that the Company was not in compliance with the requirements of Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(14) for failing to file certain required reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on a timely basis, that an "E" would be affixed to the Company's trading symbol and that delisting proceedings would begin. In its Transition Report on Form 10-K/T filed with the SEC, the Company disclosed that the Company attended a hearing on March 17, 2005 before a Nasdaq Listing Qualifications Panel (the "Panel") and requested a conditional listing of the Company's securities on the Nasdaq National Market ("Nasdaq") until April 22, 2005 to provide the Company an opportunity to file its periodic reports with the SEC and become complaint with the Nasdaq listing requirements.

On April 19, 2005, Nasdaq notified the Company that the Panel determined to grant the Company's request to continue the Nasdaq listing. As a result, the Company must file its Form 10-Q for the quarter ended December 31, 2004 with the SEC on or before April 30, 2005 and demonstrate its compliance with all requirements to continue being listed on the Nasdaq National Market.
