BOARD COMMITTEES AND COMPENSATION

The two standing committees of the Board of Directors are the Audit Committee
and the Compensation Committee.

The Audit Committee, which is made up entirely of non-employee Directors, held
two meetings during the fiscal year and consulted with one another on Committee
matters between meetings. The Committee's purpose is to oversee the Company's
accounting and financial reporting policies and practices and to assist the
Board of Directors in fulfilling its fiduciary and corporate accountability
responsibilities. Its responsibilities include selecting the Company's
independent certified public accountants, reviewing and approving the scope of
the annual audit as proposed by the independent certified public accountants,
reviewing the results of the annual audit, and considering recommendations of
the independent certified public accountants regarding the Company's system of
internal accounting controls and financial reporting. The Company's independent
certified public accountants always have direct access to Audit Committee
members.

The Compensation Committee, which also is made up entirely of non-employee
directors, held one meeting during the fiscal year, took action on stock option
grants at regular board meetings, and consulted with one another on Committee
matters during the year. The Committee's purpose is to monitor management
compensation for consistency with corporate objectives and shareholders'
interests. It approves the annual salaries and incentive plans for executive
officers, monitors and administers retirement plans for executive officers,
grants options under the Company's employee stock option plans, and oversees and
monitors compensation plans for other key management positions.

The Board of Directors does not have a nominating committee.

During the fiscal year, there were six regular meetings of the Board of
Directors; combined attendance of incumbent directors at meetings of the Board
of Directors and of standing committees exceeded 96%.

Directors who are not officers or employees of the Company each received a
quarterly fee of $4,000, fees of $800 for each Board of Directors meeting
attended and $600 for each committee meeting attended, and an option grant for
6,000 shares of common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $12.063 per
share on January 3, 2000, pursuant to the 1996 Stock Option Plan for
Non-Employee Directors. Under the Stock Option Plan, each outside director
receives an annual grant of options to purchase 6,000 shares of Analysts
International common stock. The exercise price of the options is the fair market
value of Analysts International common stock on the date of grant, and each
option has a term of ten years and becomes exercisable in four equal
installments commencing on the first anniversary of the date of grant and
continuing for the three successive anniversaries thereafter. In the event of
the retirement (as defined in the Plan) or death of an outside director, all
options granted to such director shall become immediately exercisable.

                             EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION.

The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors administers the Company's
executive compensation program. The Compensation Committee, consisting of three
non-employee directors, meets formally and consults informally during the year.
A more complete description of the functions of the Compensation Committee is
set forth above under the caption "Board Committees and Compensation."

    COMPENSATION PHILOSOPHY AND OBJECTIVES.  The Company's executive
compensation philosophy is to pay for performance. The objectives of the
Company's executive compensation program are to:

/ /   Provide compensation that enables the Company to attract and retain key
      executives.

/ /   Reward the achievement of desired Company performance goals.

/ /   Align the interest of the Company's executives to shareholder return
      through long-term opportunities for stock ownership.

The executive compensation program provides an overall level of compensation
opportunity that the Compensation Committee believes, in its judgment and
experience, is competitive with other companies of comparable size and
complexity. Actual compensation levels may be greater or less than compensation
levels at other companies based upon annual and long-term Company performance as
well as individual performance. The Compensation Committee uses its discretion
to establish executive compensation at levels in its judgment are warranted by
external or internal factors as well as an executive's individual circumstances.
In arriving at what it considers appropriate levels and components of
compensation, the Compensation Committee from time to time utilizes industry
compensation data provided by Watson Wyatt Worldwide, a nationally recognized
compensation consulting firm.

    EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION PROGRAM COMPONENTS.  The Company's executive
compensation program consists of base salary, annual cash bonus incentives and
long-term incentives in the form of stock options. The particular elements of
the compensation program are discussed more fully below.

    BASE SALARY.  Base pay levels of executives are determined by the potential
impact of the individual on the Company and its performance, the skills and
experience required by the position, salaries paid by other companies for
comparable positions and personal and corporate development goals and the
overall performance of the Company. Base salaries for executives are maintained
at levels that the Compensation Committee believes, based on its own judgment
and experience, are competitive with other companies of comparable size and
complexity.

    ANNUAL CASH BONUS INCENTIVES.  The Compensation Committee emphasizes annual
cash bonus incentives as a means of rewarding executives for significant Company
and individual performance. Prior to the beginning of each fiscal year, the
Compensation Committee establishes objective performance criteria for incentive
compensation for each executive officer,

                                       7
<PAGE>
taking into account business conditions and profit projections for the coming
year. Incentive compensation for each executive officer is based on attainment
of the performance criteria so established. Performance criteria for each of the
past three fiscal years for Mr. Lang, CEO of the Company, Mr. LaVelle,
Ms. Spiess, Mr. Mahler, and Mr. Charpentier have been based on the Company's
attainment of specified pre-tax profit objectives.

The Compensation Committee believes that this incentive arrangement creates a
direct relationship between the most important measure of Company
performance--profit--and executive compensation.

    LONG-TERM INCENTIVES.  Long-term incentives are provided in the form of
stock options. The Committee and the Board of Directors believe the management's
ownership of a significant equity interest in the Company is a major incentive
in building shareholder wealth and aligning the long-term interests of
management and shareholders. Stock options, therefore, are granted at the market
value of the common shares on date of grant and typically vest in installments
of 25% per year beginning one year after grant. The value received by the
executive from an option granted depends completely on increases in the market
price of the Company's common shares over the option exercises price.
Consequently, the value of the compensation is aligned directly with increases
in shareholder value. Grants of stock options are made by the Compensation
Committee based upon the executive's contribution toward Company performance and
expected contribution toward meeting the Company's long-term strategic goals.

    TAX DEDUCTIBILITY CONSIDERATIONS. Deductibility of compensation paid to the
Company's executive officers is limited to $1 million per executive, except for
certain "performance-based" compensation as defined in Section 162(m) of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The Committee has been advised that
compensation attributable to stock options granted under plans approved by
shareholders will qualify as performance-based compensation. For 2001,
compensation in the form of salary and cash bonus incentives will not exceed the
limit and therefore will be fully deductible, and the Committee does not
anticipate that compensation in these forms for any individual executive officer
will exceed the deductibility limit in the foreseeable future. The Committee
will take appropriate action to preserve the deductibility of executive
compensation at such future time as it deems necessary.

provide that, following a change in control, the Company will (i) continue their
employment for 36 months without reduction in compensation or benefits and

                                       10
<PAGE>
(ii) provide them with a severance payment should the Company terminate their
employment during the 36 months. The amount of the severance payment would be
2.99 times annualized compensation. Other agreements provide that they are
entitled to receive incentive compensation under their incentive compensation
plans described above for the balance of the fiscal year in the event of a
change in control.

    SENIOR EXECUTIVE RETIREMENT PLANS. Three of the Company's executive officers
are eligible for retirement benefits under an executive retirement plan, which
provides for an annual payment at normal retirement age equal to 60% of average
cash compensation for Mr. Lang (subject to a cap of $300,000 per year), 45% for
Ms. Spiess and 30% for Mr. Mahler for the highest five years of the last ten
years of employment. Mr. LaVelle is eligible for retirement benefits under an
executive retirement plan which provides for an annual payment at normal
retirement age equal to 45% of average monthly compensation times years of
service divided by 20. Mr. Charpentier is eligible for retirement benefits under
a retirement plan, which provides for an annual payment of $40,000. The benefit
for each plan is payable for fifteen years in the case of retirement after age
65. Estimated annual benefits payable to Mr. Lang, Mr. LaVelle, Ms. Spiess and
Mr. Mahler under these plans following retirement at age 65 (age 72 for

STOCK PERFORMANCE GRAPH

The following graph compares the Company's five-year cumulative total return to
the NASDAQ Index and a peer group index selected by the Company over a five-year
period beginning July 1, 1995 and ending June 30, 2000. The total shareholder
return assumes $100 invested at the beginning of the period in Analysts
International Common Stock and in each of the foregoing indices. It also assumes
reinvestment of all dividends. Past financial performance should not be
considered to be a reliable indicator of future performance, and investors
should not use historical trends to anticipate results or trends in future
periods.

                               OTHER INFORMATION

OTHER BUSINESS

The two proposals that have been properly submitted for action by shareholders
at the Annual Meeting are as listed in the Notice of Annual Meeting of
Shareholders. Management is not aware of any other items of business which will
be presented for shareholder action at the Annual Meeting. Should any other
matters properly come before the meeting for action by shareholders, the shares
represented by proxies will be voted in accordance with the judgment of the
persons voting the proxies.

VOTING AT THE MEETING

This Proxy Statement is furnished in connection with the solicitation by the
Board of Directors of proxies in the accompanying form. Shares will be voted in
the manner directed by the shareholders through their proxies, Internet voting
or telephone voting. As of the record date, there were 22,606,826 shares of
common stock outstanding and entitled to be voted. Each share is entitled to one
vote. Cumulative voting is not permitted.

Proxy cards that are signed by shareholders but lack any such specification will
be voted in favor of the proposals as set forth herein. A shareholder giving a
proxy may revoke it at any time before it is exercised by (a) delivering to the
Secretary of the Company, at or prior to the meeting, a later dated duly
executed proxy relating to the same shares, or (b) delivering to the Secretary
of the Company, at or prior to the meeting, a written notice of revocation
bearing a later date than the proxy. Any written notice or proxy revoking a
proxy should be sent to Analysts International Corporation, 3601 West 76(th)
Street, Minneapolis, Minnesota 55435, Attention: Thomas R. Mahler, Secretary.

Alternatively, in lieu of returning signed proxy cards, shareholders of record
can vote their shares over the Internet or by calling a specially designated
telephone number. These Internet and telephone voting procedures are designed to
authenticate shareholders' identities, to allow shareholders to provide their
voting instructions, and to confirm that their instructions have been recorded
properly. Specific instructions for shareholders of record who wish to use the
Internet or telephone voting procedures are set forth on the enclosed proxy
card. The proxy card covers the number of shares to be voted, including any
shares held for those who own shares of Company Common Stock through the
Analysts International Savings and Investment Plan.

The enclosed proxy card also serves as a voting instruction to the Trustee of
the Savings and Investment Plan for Company shares held in the Plan as of the
record date, provided that instructions are furnished over the Internet or by
telephone by October 31, 2000, or that the card is signed, returned, and
received by October 25, 2000. If instructions are not received over the Internet
or by telephone by October 31, 2000, or if the signed proxy card is not returned
and received by October 25, 2000, the shares in the Plan will be voted by the
Trustee in proportion to the shares for which the Trustee timely receives voting
instructions.

Directors will be elected by a favorable vote of a plurality of the common
shares cast with respect to the election of directions. The affirmative vote of
a majority of the common shares represented

                                       13
<PAGE>
in person or by proxy at the meeting is required for the ratification of the
appointment of auditors.

All shares voted by proxy, including abstentions, will be counted in determining
whether a quorum is present at the meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes
will not affect the two proposals to be acted upon at the meeting.

SOLICITATION OF PROXIES

Expenses in connection with the solicitation of proxies will be paid by the
Company. Solicitation will be conducted primarily by mail, and, in addition,

reimburse brokerage houses and other custodians for their reasonable expenses in
forwarding proxy materials to beneficial owners of common stock. The Company has
retained D. F. King & Co., Inc., 77 Water Street, New York, New York 10005, to
assist with solicitation of proxies from brokerage houses and other custodians
who are record holders of shares owned beneficially by others, the estimated
cost of which is $4,500 plus out-of-pocket expenses.
