EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Form 20-F/A (the “Amended Filing”) is being filed by Top Image Systems Ltd. (the “Company” , or “TIS") to amend its Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2009 (the “Original Filing”), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on June 23, 2010, as amended by Amendment No. 1 (“Amendment No.1”) filed with the SEC on June 28, 2010 to:

 
·
amend Item 16F as to the periods for which disclosure is being made with respect to (i) the absence of disagreements with and other reportable events related to, KPMG who formerly audited the financial statements of our subsidiary Top Image Systems (Asia Pacific) Pte. Ltd. (formerly known as Asiasoft Global Pte. Ltd.) and its consolidated subsidiaries (“Asiasoft”),  and (ii) Asiasoft not consulting with E&Y regarding the matters described in Item 16F(a)(2)(i) or (ii) of Form 20-F; and
 
 
·
amend Item 19 to (i) replace the letter from KPMG which was attached to the Original Filing as Exhibit 15.3 with a currently-dated letter confirming the amended disclosure, and (ii) contain currently dated certifications from our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, limited to only those the matters required by Question 161.01 of the Compliance and Disclosure Interpretations of the Division of Corporation Finance of the SEC. Such currently-dated certifications are attached hereto as Exhibits 12.1 and 12.2. Because no financial statements are contained in this Amendment, we are not including certifications required by Section 906 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (18 U.S.C. § 1350).
 
Except set forth herein, no other changes are being made to the Original Filing. Unless expressly stated, this Amended Filing does not reflect events occurring after the filing of the Original Filing, nor does it modify or update in any way the disclosures contained in the Original Filing. Accordingly, this Amendment should be read in conjunction with our Original Filing and our other documents filed with or furnished to the SEC subsequent to the filing of the Original Filing.
 
ITEM 16F.                      CHANGE IN REGISTRANT’S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANTS

On April 21, 2009 we have been advised by KPMG, who audited the financial statements of our subsidiary, Asiasoft, that KPMG does not wish to stand for reelection as the auditor of Asiasoft. Effective November 26, 2009 E&Y, which has been our independent certifying public accountant and has been auditing our financial statement since 2003 has been elected to serve as our independent certifying public accountant and to audit the financial statements of TIS including Asiasoft for the year ended December 31, 2009.

During the Company's last two fiscal years, the KPMG’s reports on the financial statements of Asiasoft did not contain an adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they qualified or modified as to audit scope, procedure or accounting principles.
  
During the six months ended December 31, 2007, the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008 and the subsequent interim period from January 1, 2009 through April 21, 2009 there were (i) no disagreements between the Company and KPMG on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of KPMG, would have caused it to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreement in connection with their reports on the financial statements of Asiasoft; and (ii) no reportable events as described in Item 16F(a)(1)(v) of this form 20-F.
 
During the six months ended December 31, 2007, the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008 and the subsequent interim period from January 1, 2009 through November 26, 2009, Asiasoft did not consult with E&Y with respect to the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Asiasoft’s financial statements, or any other matters or reportable events as set forth in Items 16F(a)(2)(i) or (ii) of this form 20-F. E&Y has audited the financial statements of the Company, including Asiasoft for the year ended December 31, 2009.
 
 
 

 
 
The Company has provided KPMG with a copy of this report and requested that KPMG furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the Securities and Exchange Commission stating whether it agrees with the statements made by the Company herein and, if not, stating the respects in which it does not agree.  A copy of the letter from KPMG to the Securities and Exchange Commission is filed as Exhibit 15.3 to this Annual Report on form 20-F/A.
