Recommendation of the Board of Directors
 
 Our Board of Directors recommends a vote FOR approval of all the proposals set forth in this Proxy Statement.
 
Record Date; Outstanding Securities; Quorum
 
Only holders of record of our Ordinary Shares, par value (nominal value) NIS 0.10 per share, as of the close of business on November 14, 2011 (the “record date”), are entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Meeting.  As of November 1, 2011, there were outstanding 38,108,823 Ordinary Shares.  Each Ordinary Share entitles the holder to one vote.
 
Consistent with our Articles of Association and the Israeli Companies Law, the quorum at the Meeting shall be two shareholders present, in person or by proxy, holding or representing at least twenty five percent (25%) of the voting rights in the Company.  If within half an hour from the time appointed for the holding of the meeting a quorum is not present, the meeting shall stand adjourned to Thursday, December 29, 2011 at the same time and place or any other date and place as the directors shall designate and state in a notice to the shareholders entitled to vote at the original meeting.  This notice shall serve as notice of such adjourned meeting if no quorum is present at the original date and time, and no further notice of the adjourned meeting will be given to shareholders. If, at such adjourned meeting, a quorum is not present within half an hour from the time appointed for holding the meeting, any two shareholders present in person or by proxy shall constitute a quorum.
 
Voting and Proxies                                           
 
Shares eligible to be voted and for which a proxy card is properly signed and returned at least 48 hours prior to the beginning of the Meeting will be voted as directed.  If directions are not given or directions are not in accordance with the options listed on a signed and returned proxy card, such shares will be voted in accordance with the recommendation of the Board of Directors. Unsigned or unreturned proxies, including those not returned by banks, brokers, or other record holders, will not be counted for quorum or voting purposes. However, abstentions and broker non-votes are counted as shares present for determination of a quorum. For purposes of determining whether a matter is approved by the shareholders, abstentions and broker non-votes will not be treated as either votes “for” or “against” the matter.
 
We will bear the cost of soliciting proxies from our shareholders.  Proxies will be solicited chiefly by mail and may also be solicited personally or by telephone by our directors, officers and employees; none of whom will receive additional compensation therefore. However, we may retain an outside professional to assist in the solicitation of proxies. We will reimburse brokerage houses and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries for their expenses in accordance with the regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, or the SEC, concerning the sending of proxies and proxy material to the beneficial owners of stock.
 
You may vote by submitting your proxy with voting instructions by mail if you promptly complete, sign, date and return the accompanying proxy card in the enclosed self-addressed envelope to our transfer agent or to our registered office in Israel at least 48 hours prior to the Meeting. You may revoke your proxy at any time prior to the exercise of authority granted in the proxy by giving a written notice of revocation to our Corporate Secretary, by submitting a subsequently dated, validly executed proxy, or by voting in person.
 
Joint holders of shares should take note that, pursuant to Article 40 of our Articles of Association, the vote of the senior of joint holders of any share who tenders a vote, whether in person or by proxy, will be accepted to the exclusion of the vote(s) of the other registered holder(s) of the share, and for this purpose seniority will be determined by the order in which the names stand in our register of shareholders.

ITEM 2 – ELECTION OF EXTERNAL DIRECTOR
(Item 2 on the Proxy Card)

Background

Companies incorporated under the laws of Israel whose shares have been offered to the public inside or outside of Israel are required by the Companies Law to appoint at least two external directors.

To qualify as an external director, an individual (or the individual’s relative, partner, employer or any entity under the individual's control) may not have, and may not have had at any time during the previous two years, any "affiliation" with (i) the company, the company's controlling shareholder or its relative, or another entity affiliated with the company or its controlling shareholder, or (ii) in a company without a controlling shareholder (or a shareholder that owns more than 25% of its voting power) such as Attunity, affiliation  with any person who, at the time of appointment, is the chairman, the chief executive officer, the chief financial officer or a 5% shareholder of the company. Under the Companies Law, the term “affiliation” includes: an employment relationship; a business or professional relationship; control; and service as an office holder. In addition, no individual may serve as an external director if the individual’s position or other activities create or may create a conflict of interest with his or her role as an external director.

Under the Companies Law, each committee of a company’s board of directors empowered with powers of the board of directors is required to include at least one external director, except that the audit committee must be comprised of at least three directors, including all of the external directors.

Pursuant to the Companies Law, (1) an external director must have either “accounting and financial expertise” or “professional qualifications” (as such terms are defined in regulations promulgated under the Companies Law) and (2) at least one of the external directors must have “accounting and financial expertise.”

The external directors generally must be elected by the shareholders. The initial term of an external director is three years and he or she may be reelected for up to two additional terms of three years each.

Ms. Tali Alush-Aben was elected as an external director of the Company on December 31, 2008 for a three-year term that expires on December 30, 2011. Pursuant to the recommendation of our Board of Directors, shareholders will be asked at the meeting to re-elect Ms. Alush-Aben as an external director for an additional term of three years.

The Company has received a declaration from Ms. Alush-Aben, confirming her qualifications under the Companies Law to be elected as an external director of the Company. In addition, our Board of Directors has determined that Ms. Alush-Aben satisfies the requisite “professional qualifications” described above. For details about beneficial ownership of our shares held by such nominee, see in Item 1 above under the caption “Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management.” For details about compensation to be granted to such nominee, see in Item 1 above under the caption “Executive Compensation” as well as Items 5 and 7 below. A brief biography of the nominee is set forth below. Such information is based upon the records of the Company and information furnished to it by the nominee.

Tali Alush-Aben has been an external director since December 2008. She is currently an independent consultant. Until January 2008, she was a General Partner at Gemini, an Israeli venture capital fund she joined in 1994. Her focus in Gemini was primarily on software companies, with recent activities in Cleantech. Prior to joining Gemini, she served as Marketing Director of RadView, then a start-up software company, and as Senior Product Marketing Manager at SunSoft Inc. From 1990 to 1992, she served as Marketing Director for Mercury Interactive Corporation. Ms. Alush-Aben is also a member of the board of directors of Vizrt Ltd. She holds a B.Sc. degree in mathematics and computer science and an MBA degree, both from Tel Aviv University.

The Proposed Resolutions

It is proposed that at the Meeting the following resolution be adopted:

RESOLVED, that Ms. Tali Alush-Aben be elected as an external director of Attunity for a term of three years.”

Required Vote

Approval of the above resolution will require the affirmative vote of a majority of Ordinary Shares present at the Meeting, in person or by proxy, and voting on the resolution, provided that (i) the shares voting in favor of such resolution include at least a majority of the shares voted by shareholders who are not “controlling shareholders” or having a "personal interest" in the matter as a result of relations with the controlling shareholder (as such terms are defined in the Companies Law) ("Unaffiliated Shareholders"), or (ii) the total number of shares voted against the resolution by Unaffiliated Shareholders does not exceed two percent (2%) of Attunity’s outstanding shares. As of the date hereof, the Company has no controlling shareholder within the meaning of the Companies Law. Subject to the Companies Law, in the event that Ms. Tali Alush-Aben should be unable to serve, the proxies will be voted for the election of such other person as shall be determined by the persons named in the proxy in accordance with their best judgment to be suitable to serve as an external director.

The Board of Directors recommends a vote FOR the election of the nominee named above as an external director.

According to Sections 95(a) and 121(c) of the Israeli Companies Law, the chief executive officer of a public company is permitted to serve also as the chairman of the board of directors only if approved by the shareholders. The shareholders may give such approval for a period of up to three years from the date of approval.
 
Mr. Shimon Alon was appointed Chairman of our Board of Directors in May 2004 and, as approved by our shareholders, was also appointed our Chief Executive Officer in June 2008. 
 
 
- 10 -

 
 
Our Board of Directors believes that it is in the best interest of the Company to allow Mr. Alon to continue to act as both the Chairman of our Board and our Chief Executive Officer in light of, among others, Mr. Alon’s experience and familiarity with the Company’s business. Even if this matter is approved, Mr. Alon, if nominated by our Board of Directors, will be required to stand for reelection as a director at each annual general meeting of our shareholders. In addition, his service as Chairman and as Chief Executive Officer will each continue to be at the pleasure of our Board of Directors.
 
Mr. Alon is not entitled to any additional compensation for his service as Chairman of our Board of Directors. He will, however, continue to be entitled to receive the compensation we pay him as chief executive officer (see Item 4 below) for as long as he serves in such position (i.e., even in the event that the proposed resolution in this Item 3 shall not be adopted).

The Proposed Resolution

It is therefore proposed that at the Meeting the following resolutions be adopted:

RESOLVED, to authorize Shimon Alon to serve as both the Company’s Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer for a three-year term.”

Required Vote

The affirmative vote of a majority of the ordinary shares represented at the Meeting in person or by proxy and voting thereon is required to adopt said resolution, provided that (i) the shares voting in favor of such resolution include at least two-thirds (2/3) of the shares voted by shareholders who are not “controlling shareholders” or do not have a "personal interest" in the matter (as such terms are defined in the Companies Law) ("Unaffiliated Shareholders"), or (ii) the total number of shares voted against the resolution by Unaffiliated Shareholders does not exceed two percent (2%) of Attunity’s outstanding shares. The Companies Law requires that each shareholder voting on the proposed resolution indicate whether or not the shareholder has a personal interest in the proposed resolution. Under the Companies Law, a “personal interest” of a shareholder (i) includes a personal interest of any members of the shareholder’s family (or spouses thereof) or a personal interest of a company with respect to which the shareholder (or such family member) serves as a director or the CEO, owns at least 5% of the shares or has the right to appoint a director or the CEO and (ii) excludes an interest arising solely from the ownership of our Ordinary Shares.

As of the date hereof, the Company has no controlling shareholder within the meaning of the Companies Law. However, Mr. Alon will be deemed to have a personal interest in this matter. To avoid confusion, the enclosed form of proxy card includes a certification that you do NOT have a personal interest in this matter. If you do have a personal interest, please contact the Company's CFO at telephone number: +972-9-899-3000; fax number: +972-9–899-3011; or email dror.elkayam@attunity.com for instructions on how to vote your shares and indicate that you do have a personal interest or, if you hold your shares in "street name", you may also contact the representative managing your account, who could then contact the Company on your behalf.

The Board of Directors recommends a vote FOR approval of the foregoing resolution.
 
ITEM 4  CEO EMPLOYMENT TERMS
(Item 4 on the Proxy Card)

Background

Mr. Shimon Alon began serving as a director of our company on July 1, 2004. We entered into an employment agreement with Mr. Alon, under which he agreed to serve as our Chief Executive Officer effective June 1, 2008. Pursuant to the employment agreement, Mr. Alon has agreed to devote his full working time and best efforts to our business and affairs, and to the performance of his duties under the agreement as long as he is employed by us. Pursuant to the employment agreement (as modified from time to time), we agreed to provide Mr. Alon the following payments and benefits (NIS figures are based on an exchange rate of NIS 3.65 to $1.00):
 
 
·
A gross monthly salary (denominated in NIS) equal to the NIS equivalent of $25,685 during the term of his employment;
 
 
- 11 -

 
 
 
·
A company car and all related expenses, except related taxes;
 
 
·
Company contributions for the benefit of Mr. Alon to our Managers Insurance Policy in the amount of 18.33% of Mr. Alon’s gross salary and Education Fund (“Keren Hishtalmut”) in the amount of 7.5% of Mr. Alon’s gross salary. Part of the contributions to the Managers  Insurance  Policy are for  severance pay to which Mr. Alon  would be entitled;
 
 
·
Options to purchase 960,000 ordinary shares, at an exercise price equal to $0.30 per share. In December 2009, we granted Mr. Alon options to purchase 250,000 additional ordinary shares, at an exercise price equal to $0.25 per share. In December 2010, we granted Mr. Alon additional options to purchase 100,000 ordinary shares, at an exercise price equal to $0.70 per share. All such options are subject to the terms of our 2003 Israeli Stock Option Plan and become exercisable (1) with respect to the initial grant of 960,000 options - in three equal installments, at the end of each of the three years following the date of commencement of Mr. Alon’s employment; all of these options are currently fully vested; and (2) with respect to the additional grants - one third of the options will become exercisable one year after the grant date and the balance vests in eight equal quarterly installments. The vesting of all options is accelerated in certain change of control events;
 
 
·
An annual bonus (denominated in NIS) that will not exceed the NIS equivalent of $123,288 gross. The bonus shall be paid on a quarterly basis, subject to Mr. Alon achieving certain milestones that will be set by our Audit Committee and Board of Directors;
 
 
·
Up to 22 days paid vacation per year;
 
 
·
10 days recreation payment a year in an amount normally paid by our company; and
 
 
·
In the event of termination of Mr. Alon’s employment for any reason (except if the company  terminates his employment under such  circumstances that he is not entitled to severance  pay under  Israeli law, or if he resigns without giving  the  required  prior  notice),  Mr. Alon  will be entitled  to an  adjustment  period of 12 months following  the end of the prior notice  period under the  agreement (or from the date that he actually ceased to provide services should we choose to waive the prior notice period).  During the adjustment period, Mr. Alon will be entitled to all rights to which he is  entitled  under the  agreement,  except  that the options  granted  to him will  cease to vest;  however  he will be  entitled  to exercise vested options during such period. The employee-employer relationship will only terminate at the end of the adjustment period.  Mr. Alon will be entitled to reimbursement of all expenses in connection with his employment.
 
The employment agreement contains customary confidentiality and non-solicitation provisions as well as an undertaking of Mr. Alon not to compete with us or our field of business for 12 months following termination of his employment.
 
The agreement (as well as the amendments thereto) with Mr. Alon was approved by our Audit Committee, Board of Directors and our shareholders. In February 2009, Mr. Alon agreed to reduce his annual base salary by 10% (and, until January 2010, also waived certain associated social benefits) until further notice by him. In February 2011, Mr. Alon agreed to a 4% reduction in his annual base salary (in lieu of the previous 10% waiver).

Proposed Modifications (including Grant of Stock Options)

Our success depends to a significant extent on the performance of Mr. Alon. In recognition of Mr. Alon's contribution to the Company, the Board of Directors has approved, after receipt of recommendation and approval of the Audit Committee, the following modifications to Mr. Alon's compensation terms (NIS figures are based on an exchange rate of NIS 3.65 to $1.00):
 
 
·
Increase Mr. Alon's gross monthly salary (denominated in NIS) by approximately 6.7% to the NIS equivalent of $27,397;
 
 
·
Increase Mr. Alon's annual bonus (denominated in NIS) by approximately 33% to an annual bonus that will not exceed the NIS equivalent of $164,384 gross, which reflects approximately six (6) monthly gross salaries (instead of approximately five (5) monthly gross salaries). The bonus shall be paid on a quarterly basis, subject to Mr. Alon achieving certain milestones that will be set by our Audit Committee and Board of Directors; and
 
 
·
An additional grant of options to purchase up to 200,000 Ordinary Shares on the following key terms:
 
 
·
One third of the options will become exercisable after one year and the balance will vest in eight equal quarterly installments. The vesting of the options will be accelerated in certain change of control events.
 
 
·
The exercise price of all options shall be equal to the fair market value of the Ordinary Shares on the date of the grant (i.e., the closing price of the Company’s stock on the date of the Meeting).
 
 
·
All other terms and conditions in connection with the above options shall be as set forth in our 2003 Israeli Stock Option Plan.
 
For the sake of clarity, in the event that the proposed resolution shall not be adopted, then Mr. Alon's compensation terms shall continue unchanged.
 
The Proposed Resolution

Pursuant to the Companies Law, the terms of compensation for directors of a public company, such as Attunity, including grants of options, require approval of the audit committee, board of directors and shareholders, in that order. As described above, our Audit Committee and Board of Directors have previously approved the proposed modifications, including grant of stock options, to Mr. Alon's compensation terms. It is therefore proposed that at the Meeting the following resolution be adopted:

RESOLVED, that the proposed modifications, including grant of stock options, to Mr. Alon's compensation terms as described in Item 4 of the Proxy Statement, dated November 14, 2011 is hereby approved.”

Required Vote

The affirmative vote of a majority of the Ordinary Shares represented at the Meeting in person or by proxy and voting thereon is required to adopt the foregoing resolution.

The Board of Directors recommends a vote FOR approval of the foregoing resolution.

ITEM 5 – GRANT OF STOCK OPTIONS
(Item 5 on the Proxy Card)

Background

As more fully described under "Executive Compensation" above, we adopted a stock option policy for non-employee directors, according to which each of our non-employee directors who may serve from time to time (regardless of whether they are former employees or consultants of the Company), including our external directors, will be granted options, as follows:
 
 
·
a grant of options under our stock option plans to purchase 60,000 ordinary shares every three years for which such non-employee director holds office, which options vest in three equal installments over three years following the grant date (i.e., one third of the options become vested each year);
 
 
·
an exercise price of all options equal to the fair market value of the ordinary shares on the date of the grant (i.e., the closing price of our shares on the date of the annual general meeting of shareholders in which such director is elected or reelected); and
 
 
·
the portion of outstanding options that is scheduled to vest during the year at which the director’s service with us is terminated or expires will be accelerated and become fully vested and exercisable for a period of 180 days thereafter, unless termination was due to the director’s resignation or for one of the causes set forth in the Companies Law.

The foregoing stock options policy was approved by the shareholders in December 2008 and ratified in December 2009.

Proposed Modification to Stock Option Policy
 
In October 2011, our Audit Committee and Board of Directors revised the said stock options policy, such that, subject to approval of our shareholders, each of our non-employee directors, who may serve the Company from time to time (regardless of whether they are former employees or consultants of the Company), including our external directors, will receive a grant of options under our stock option plans to purchase 80,000 Ordinary Shares (rather than 60,000) every three years for which such non-employee director holds office, which options vest in three equal installments over three years. All other terms of the stock options policy described above will remain unchanged.
 
If the proposed modification to the stock option policy is adopted, each of our non-employee directors, including Ms. Alush-Aben, will be entitled (subject to their reelection at the Meeting) to receive a grant of options under our stock option plans to purchase 80,000 Ordinary Shares (rather than 60,000) at an exercise price equal to the closing price of our shares on the date of the Meeting, because they have completed a term of three years.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Mr. Weiser, whose three-year term is scheduled to expire only in December 2013, will be entitled to receive an additional grant of options under our stock option plans to purchase 20,000 Ordinary Shares, at an exercise price equal to the closing price of our shares on the date of the Meeting (for the sake of clarity, the 20,000 options vest in three equal installments over three years following the grant date), so as to provide him the same level of equity award as the other non-employee directors. Pursuant to regulations promulgated under the Companies Law, we generally may not change the terms of compensation of an external director during his or her term, except when a new external director is elected and only if such revised terms are for the benefit of the continuing external director.  Accordingly, the following resolution, with respect to Mr. Weiser, our continuing external director, is also subject to the election of Ms. Tali Alush-Aben (see Item 2 above).

For the sake of clarity, in the event that the proposed resolution shall not be adopted, then the stock options policy and the grants of stock options thereunder, shall continue unchanged.

The Proposed Resolution

It is therefore proposed that at the Meeting the following resolution be adopted:

RESOLVED, that the proposed change to the stock options policy, including the grant of stock options, as described in the Company’s Proxy Statement, dated November 14, 2011, are ratified and approved in all respects.”

Required Vote

Approval of the above resolution will require the affirmative vote of a majority of Ordinary Shares present at the Meeting, in person or by proxy, and voting on the resolution.

The Board of Directors recommends a vote FOR approval of the foregoing resolution.
 
ITEM 6 AMENDMENTS TO THE ARTICLES OF ASSOCIATION
(Item 6 on the Proxy Card)
 
Background

Our Board of Directors approved, as part of its ongoing corporate governance review, the proposed amendments to Articles 1 and 98 of the Company’s Articles of Association (as amended and restated) set forth in Appendix A hereto.

The proposed amendments are primarily intended to incorporate recent changes in the Companies Law and the Israeli Securities Law, 1968 (such amendments shall be referred to as the "Administrative Enforcement Law") relating to indemnification and insurance of directors and officers for expenses they incur as a result of administrative proceedings that may be instituted against them under the Administrative Enforcement Law and for payments made to injured persons under specific circumstances thereunder, which amendments will permit us to continue to indemnify our directors and office holders to the fullest extent permitted by law.

Our Board of Directors believes that the proposed amendments are in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders.

For the full version of the Company’s Articles of Association as currently in effect, see Exhibit 1.2 to our annual report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2010 (filed with the SEC on March 31, 2011), which may be viewed on our website – www.attunity.com or through the EDGAR website of the SEC at www.sec.gov.

The Proposed Resolution

It is therefore proposed that at the Meeting the following resolution be adopted:

RESOLVED, that Articles 1 and 98 of the Articles of Association of the Company be amended as set forth in Appendix A to the Proxy Statement dated November 14, 2011; and that the Company may restate the Articles of Association of the Company in accordance with such amendment.”

The Board of Directors recommends a vote FOR approval of the foregoing resolution.
 
ITEM 7
REVISED INDEMNITY AGREEMENT
(Item 7 on the Proxy Card)
 
Background
 
The Israeli Companies Law and the Company’s Articles of Association permit the indemnification of office holders of the Company. The Company has provided indemnification letters in favor of the Company’s directors and officers in a form that was approved by the shareholders in 2005.
 
In light of the Administrative Enforcement Law described in Item 6 of this Proxy Statement, the Company’s audit committee and board of directors have approved modifications to such indemnification letters, in the form of the revised agreement attached as Appendix B hereto, to ensure that the Company’s directors and officers have indemnification to the fullest extent permitted by law. In particular, pursuant to the Administrative Enforcement Law, we are not allowed to indemnify or insure our office holders for certain proceedings and for certain financial sanctions resulting from such proceedings. However, the Administrative Enforcement Law allows us to indemnify and insure our office holders with respect to the expenses incurred by them as a result of such proceedings and with respect to certain payments made to the injured parties of such violations as described in the Administrative Enforcement Law.
 
Pursuant to the Companies Law, the amendments to the indemnification letters will not be made if the proposed related amendments to the Company’s Articles of Association in Item 6 above are not approved.
 
The Board of Directors believes that providing indemnification to directors is an important factor in attracting and retaining highly-qualified individuals to serve on the Company’s Board of Directors and in motivating such individuals to devote their maximum efforts toward the advancement of the Company.
 
The Proposed Resolution
 
It is proposed that at the Meeting the following resolution be adopted:
 
RESOLVED, that the Company’s undertaking to enter into an Indemnification Agreement with each of the Company’s directors, in the form of the agreement attached as Appendix B to the Proxy Statement dated November 14, 2011, be, and it hereby is, ratified and approved;
 
RESOLVED, that for the purposes of the foregoing resolution, the term “director” shall include all present and future directors of the Company, including external directors, as shall serve from time to time.”
 
Required Vote

The affirmative vote of a majority of the Ordinary Shares represented at the Meeting in person or by proxy and voting thereon is required to adopt the foregoing resolution.
 
The Board of Directors recommends a vote FOR approval of the foregoing resolution.

ITEM 8 RE-APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT AUDITORS
(Item 8 on the Proxy Card)

Background

Our Board of Directors first appointed Kost Forer Gabbay & Kasierer, Certified Public Accountants (Israel), a member of Ernst & Young Global, as our auditors in 1992 and has reappointed the firm as our auditors since such time.

At the Meeting, the shareholders will be asked to approve the re-appointment of Kost Forer Gabbay & Kasierer as our independent auditors, pursuant to the recommendation of our Audit Committee and Board of Directors. Kost Forer Gabbay & Kasierer, and other accountants affiliated with Ernst & Young Global, also serve as auditors of our subsidiaries. They have no relationship with us or with any of our affiliates except as auditors and, to a limited extent, as tax consultants and providers of some other audit related services. Our Audit Committee and Board of Directors believe that the independence of Kost Forer Gabbay & Kasierer is not affected by such limited non-audit function and that, as a result of their familiarity with our operations and their reputation in the auditing field, they have the necessary personnel and professional qualifications to act as our auditors.

At the Meeting, the shareholders will also be asked to authorize our Board of Directors to delegate to our Audit Committee the authority to fix the compensation of our independent auditors. With respect to the year 2010, we paid Kost Forer Gabbay & Kasierer $106,179 (compared to $115,839 for 2009) for auditing and audit-related services, $3,340 ($0 in 2009) for tax related services and no fees ($1,250 in 2009) for other services.

The Proposed Resolution

It is therefore proposed that at the Meeting the following resolution be adopted:

RESOLVED, that the reappointment of the Kost Forer Gabbay & Kasierer as independent auditors of the Company until immediately following the next annual general meeting of shareholders be, and it hereby is, approved and that the Board of Directors be, and it hereby is, authorized to delegate to the Audit Committee of the Board the authority to fix the remuneration of said independent auditors in accordance with the volume and nature of their services.”

Required Vote

The affirmative vote of a majority of the Ordinary Shares represented at the Meeting in person or by proxy and voting thereon is required to adopt the foregoing resolution.

The Board of Directors recommends a vote FOR approval of the foregoing resolution.
 
DISCUSSION OF AUDITORS’ REPORT AND FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

At the Meeting, the Auditors’ Report and our audited Consolidated Financial Statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010 will be presented for discussion, as required by the Companies Law. The said Auditors’ Report and Consolidated Financial Statements, as well as our annual report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2010 (filed with the SEC on March 31, 2011), may be viewed on our website – www.attunity.com or through the EDGAR website of the SEC at www.sec.gov.
 
Any shareholder may receive a copy of the said annual report on Form 20-F, without charge, upon written request to the Company (attention: Mr. Dror Harel-Elkayam, Chief Financial Officer and Secretary). None of the Auditors’ Report, the Consolidated Financial Statements, the Form 20-F and the contents of our website form part of the proxy solicitation material.
 
This item will not involve a vote of the shareholders.

OTHER MATTERS

The Board of Directors currently knows of no other business to be transacted at the Meeting, other than as set forth in the Notice of 2011 Annual Meeting of Shareholders; but, if any other matter is properly presented at the Meeting, the persons named in the enclosed form of proxy will vote upon such matters in accordance with their best judgment.

Re: Indemnification Agreement

Dear _____________:

WHEREAS, it is in the best interest of Attunity Ltd. (the “Company”) to retain and attract as directors, officers and/or employees the most capable persons available, and such persons are becoming more reluctant to serve publicly-held companies unless they are provided with adequate protection thorough insurance, indemnification and exculpation in connection with such service; and

WHEREAS, you are a director, officer and/or employee of the Company and/or its subsidiaries, and in order to enhance your continued service to the Company in an effective manner, the Company desires to provide hereunder for your indemnification and exculpation to the fullest extent permitted by law;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of your continuing to serve the Company, the parties agree as follows:

1.
Indemnification.  The Company shall indemnify you, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, for the following events (“Indemnifiable Events”):

 
1.1
any financial obligation imposed on you in favor of a third party by a court judgment, including a settlement or an arbitrator’s award approved by court, for an act or omission performed by you in your capacity as a director, officer and/or employee of the Company and/or its subsidiaries;

 
1.2
all reasonable litigation expenses, including attorney’s fees, expended by you as a result of an investigation or proceeding instituted against you by a competent authority, provided that such investigation or proceeding concluded without the filing of an indictment against you and either (A) concluded without the imposition of any financial liability in lieu of criminal proceedings or (B) concluded with the imposition of a financial liability in lieu of criminal proceedings but relates to a criminal offense that does not require proof of criminal intent or in connection with a financial sanction; and

 
1.3
all reasonable legal expenses, including attorneys’ fees, expended by or charged to you or adjudicated against you, by a court in a proceeding commenced against you by the Company or on its behalf or by another person, or in any criminal proceedings in which you were acquitted, or in any criminal proceedings which does not require proof of intent (in which you were convicted), all in respect of actions or omissions performed in your capacity as a director, officer and/or employee of the Company and/or its subsidiaries; and

 
1.4
a payment which he is obligated to make to an injured party as set forth in Section 52(54)(a)(1)(a) of the Securities Law, if applicable, and expenses that he incurred in connection with a proceeding under Chapters H'3, H'4 or I'1 of the Securities Law, if applicable, including reasonable legal expenses, which term includes attorney fees.

The above indemnification will also apply to any action taken by you in your capacity as a director, officer and/or employee of any other company controlled, directly or indirectly, by the Company (a “Subsidiary”) or in your capacity as a director, or observer at board of directors’ meetings, of a company not controlled by the Company but where your appointment as such a director or observer results from the Company’s holdings in such company or is made at the Company's request (“Affiliate”).
 
 
 

 
 
The Company will indemnify you even if at the relevant time you are no longer a director, officer or employee of the Company or of a Subsidiary or a director or board observer of an Affiliate, provided that the obligations are in respect of actions taken by you while you were a director, officer, employee and/or board observer, as aforesaid, and in such capacity, including if taken prior to the date hereof.
 
2.
Scope of Indemnity. The Company will not indemnify you for any amount you may be obligated to pay in respect of:

 
2.1
a breach of your duty of loyalty, except for a breach while acting in good faith and having reasonable cause to assume that such act would not prejudice the interests of the Company;
 
 
2.2
a willful breach of the duty of care or reckless disregard for the circumstances or the consequences of a breach of the duty of care;
 
 
2.3
an act with intent to unlawfully realize personal gain; or
 
 
2.4
a fine or penalty imposed upon you for an offense.
 
3.
Advancements. If so requested by you, the Company shall advance an amount (or amounts) to cover your reasonable legal expenses, including attorneys’ fees, with respect to which you are entitled to be indemnified under paragraph 1 above.  These advancements will be made available to you on the date on which such amounts are first payable by you, and with respect to items referred to in paragraph 1.2 above, even prior to a court decision.

The obligation of the Company to make such advances shall be subject to the condition that, if, when and to the extent that it is determined that you were not entitled to be so indemnified under applicable law, you hereby agree to promptly reimburse the Company for all such amounts theretofore advanced, except that advances given to cover legal expenses in criminal proceedings will be repaid by you to the Company if you are found guilty of a crime, which requires criminal intent.  As part of the aforementioned undertaking, the Company will make available to you any security or guarantee that you may be required to post in accordance with an interim decision given by a court or an arbitrator, including for the purpose of substituting liens imposed on your assets.

6.1
You shall promptly notify the Company of any legal proceedings initiated against you and of all possible or threatened legal proceedings without delay following your first becoming aware thereof, and you deliver to the Company, or to such person as it shall advise you, without delay all documents you receive in connection with these proceedings. Similarly, you must advise the Company on an ongoing and current basis concerning all events that you suspect may give rise to the initiation of legal proceedings against you.

 
6.2
Other than with respect to proceedings that have been initiated against you by the Company or in its name, the Company shall be entitled to undertake the conduct of your defense in respect of such legal proceedings and/or to hand over the conduct thereof to any attorney which the Company may choose for that purpose, except to an attorney who is not, upon reasonable grounds, acceptable to you. The Company and/or the attorney as aforesaid shall be entitled, within the context of the conduct as aforesaid, to conclude such proceedings, all as it shall see fit, including by way of settlement. At the request of the Company, you shall execute all documents required to enable the Company and/or its attorney as aforesaid to conduct your defense in your name, and to represent you in all matters connected therewith, in accordance with the aforesaid.

6.3
You will fully cooperate with the Company and/or any attorney as aforesaid in every reasonable way as may be required of you within the context of their conduct of such legal proceedings, including but not limited to the execution of power(s) of attorney and other documents, provided that the Company shall cover all costs incidental thereto such that you will not be required to pay the same or to finance the same yourself.

 
6.4
If, in accordance to paragraph 6.2, the Company has taken upon itself the conduct of your defense, the Company will have no liability or obligation pursuant to this Agreement or the above resolutions to indemnify you for any legal expenses, including any legal fees, that you may expend in connection with your defense, except to which the Company in its absolute discretion shall agree.
