PROXY STATEMENT
----------------
FOR 1999 ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS
TO BE HELD ON SEPTEMBER 8, 1999
August 10, 1999
This Proxy Statement is furnished in connection with the solicitation of
proxies by the Board of Directors of ASI Solutions Incorporated (the
"Company") for use at the 1999 Annual Meeting of Stockholders of the Company
to be held on Wednesday, September 8, 1999, and at any adjournments or
postponements thereof (the "Annual Meeting"). At the Annual Meeting,
stockholders will be asked to vote upon the election of eight directors of the
Company, to consider and act upon a proposal to approve an amendment to the
Company's 1996 Stock Option and Grant Plan (the "Option Plan"), to consider
and act upon a proposal to approve an amendment to the Company's 1996
Directors Stock Option Plan (the "Directors Plan"), and to act upon any other
matters properly brought before them.
This Proxy Statement and the accompanying Notice of Annual Meeting and Proxy
Card are first being sent to stockholders on or about August 10, 1999. The
Board of Directors has fixed the close of business on August 6, 1999 as the
record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to notice of and to
vote at the Annual Meeting (the "Record Date"). Only stockholders of record of
the Company's common stock, par value $.01 per share (the "Common Stock"), at
the close of business on the Record Date will be entitled to notice of and to
vote at the Annual Meeting. Holders of Common Stock outstanding as of the
close of business on the Record Date will be entitled to one vote for each
share held by them.
The presence, in person or by proxy, of holders of at least a majority of
the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding and entitled to vote is
necessary to constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at the Annual
Meeting. Both abstentions and broker non-votes (as defined below) will be
counted as present in determining the presence of a quorum. A plurality of
votes cast shall be sufficient for the election of directors. Abstentions and
broker non-votes will be disregarded in determining the "votes cast" for
purposes of electing directors and will not affect the election of the
candidates receiving a plurality of votes. The affirmative vote of the holders
of a majority of the shares of Common Stock present or represented and
entitled to vote is required to approve the amendment to the Option Plan and
the amendment to the Directors Plan. Abstentions will be included in
determining the number of shares of Common Stock present or represented and
entitled to vote for purposes of approval of the proposal to amend the Option
Plan and the proposal to amend the Directors Plan, and will therefore have the
effect of votes "against" such proposals. Broker non-votes will not be counted
in determining the number of shares of Common Stock present or represented and
entitled to vote to approve the amendment to the Option Plan or the amendment
to the Directors Plan, and will therefore not have the effect of votes either
"for" or "against" such proposals. A "broker non-vote" is a proxy from a
broker or other nominee indicating that such person has not received
instructions from the beneficial owner or other person entitled to vote the
shares which are the subject of the proxy on a particular matter with respect
to which the broker or other nominee does not have discretionary voting power.
Stockholders of the Company are requested to complete, sign, date and
promptly return the accompanying Proxy Card in the enclosed, postage-prepaid
envelope. Shares represented by a properly executed proxy received prior to
the vote at the Annual Meeting and not revoked will be voted at the Annual
Meeting as directed on the proxy. If a properly executed proxy is submitted
and no instructions
<PAGE>
are given, the proxy will be voted FOR the election of the nominees for
director of the Company named in this Proxy Statement and FOR the proposals to
approve the amendments to the Option Plan and the Directors Plan. It is not
anticipated that any matters other than the election of directors and the
amendments to the Option Plan and the Directors Plan will be presented at the
Annual Meeting. If other matters are presented, proxies will be voted in
accordance with the discretion of the proxy holders.
A stockholder of record may revoke a proxy at any time before it has been
exercised by filing a written revocation with the Secretary of the Company at
the address of the Company set forth above; by filing a duly executed proxy
bearing a later date; or by appearing in person and voting by ballot at the
Annual Meeting. Any stockholder of record as of the Record Date attending the
Annual Meeting may vote in person whether or not such stockholder has
previously given a proxy, but the presence (without further action) of a
stockholder at the Annual Meeting will not constitute revocation of a
previously given proxy.
The Company's 1999 Annual Report, including audited financial statements for
the fiscal year ended March 31, 1999 ("Fiscal 1999"), is being mailed to
stockholders concurrently with this Proxy Statement. The Annual Report,
however, is not part of the proxy solicitation materials.
PROPOSAL 1: ELECTION OF DIRECTORS
The Board of Directors of the Company currently consists of eight members.
At the Annual Meeting, eight directors will be elected to serve until the 2000
Annual Meeting of Stockholders and until their respective successors are duly
elected and qualified. The Board of Directors has nominated Bernard F.
Reynolds, Eli Salig, Seymour Adler, Ph.D., David Tory, Michael J. Boylan, Ilan
Kaufthal, Carl S. Koerner and F. Samuel Smith (each a "Nominee") to serve as
directors. Each of the Nominees is currently serving as a director of the
Company. The Board of Directors anticipates that each of the Nominees will
serve, if elected, as a director. However, if any Nominee is unable to accept
election, the proxies will be voted for the election of such other person or
persons as the Board of Directors may recommend. The Board of Directors will
consider a Nominee for election to the Board of Directors recommended by a
stockholder of record if the stockholder submits the nomination in compliance
with the requirements of the Company's Amended and Restated By-laws (the "By-
laws"). See "Other Matters--Stockholder Proposals" for a summary of these
requirements.
THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR EACH OF THE NOMINEES.

Employment Agreements
The Company has executive employment agreements with Messrs. Reynolds and
Salig and Dr. Adler (each an "Executive"). The current annual base salaries of
Messrs. Reynolds and Salig and Dr. Adler under their employment agreements are
$425,000, $330,000 and $305,000, respectively. Each Executive is entitled to
fringe benefits and an annual bonus to be determined by the Board of
Directors. Each Executive can be terminated for cause (as defined in the
employment agreements) with all future compensation ceasing. If the Executive
is terminated without cause, dies during the term, or is unable to competently
and continuously perform the duties assigned to him because of ill health or
other disability (as defined in the employment agreements), the Executive or
the Executive's estate or beneficiaries shall be entitled to full compensation
for three years following the date thereof. If the Executive resigns, his
compensation ceases as of the date of his resignation. During the period of
employment and for a period of three years thereafter, the Executives are
prohibited from competing with the Company. In order for a non-competition
clause to be enforceable under applicable state law, the clause must be
limited in terms of scope and duration. While the Company believes that the
non-competition clauses in the employment contracts are enforceable, there can
be no assurance that a court will declare them to be enforceable in all
circumstances.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE REPORT ON
EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors consists of Messrs.
Boylan, Kaufthal and Koerner.
The Compensation Committee is responsible for (i) reviewing the performance
and approving the compensation, including bonuses, of the Company's Chief
Executive Officer and the executive officers and key managers reporting
directly to the Chief Executive Officer, and (ii) administering, reviewing and
approving stock option grants and authorizing the number of shares of common
stock issuable under the Company's 1996 Stock Option and Grant Plan and the
Company's 1996 Directors Stock Option Plan (although its actions with respect
to such plans are subject to the approval of the full Board of Directors).
Compensation Philosophy and Practice
The Compensation Committee's philosophy is based upon the belief that
executive compensation should be closely aligned with the annual and long-term
financial performance of the Company and increases in stockholder value. The
Compensation Committee believes that leadership and motivation of the
Company's employees is critical to the continued success of the Company and
that appropriate compensation for performance is the foundation of any
successful enterprise. As such, the Compensation Committee closely monitors
the allocation of the Company's executives' compensation among salary, bonus
and stock option grants in order to create the optimum level of incentives for
such executives to manage the Company's affairs with the goal of improving the
Company's financial performance and increasing value to stockholders.
Each year the Compensation Committee conducts a full review of the
compensation level of each of the Company's executive officers. In determining
annual compensation, the Compensation Committee considers the Company's
performance based on rate of growth and ability to meet and surpass financial
projections. Additionally, in determining compensation for executive officers
individually, the Compensation Committee considers the performance of the
specific executive, the role and level of responsibility such executive has
assumed in the Company's performance as a whole, the particular executive's
importance to the future growth of the Company and the success of the
executive individually and collectively with the other members of the
management team in achieving short-term and long-term goals.
Based upon the complexity, revenues and growth potential of the Company and
in consideration of the caliber, level of experience and performance of the
Company's management, the Compensation Committee believes that the Company's
executive compensation practices maintain an overall level of compensation
that is competitive and beneficial to the Company.
As set forth above under "Executive Compensation--Option Grants in Fiscal
1999," stock options were granted to two of the executive officers of the
Company in Fiscal 1999. Stock options were also granted to various employees
and consultants of the Company in Fiscal 1999. The Compensation Committee
recommended and the Board of Directors approved the option grants based upon
the same factors considered in making the compensation decisions described
above.

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS
AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION
The Company's executive compensation is determined by the Compensation
Committee of the Board of Directors. Mr. Koerner, a member of the Compensation
Committee, is a managing partner of the law firm of Koerner Silberberg &
Weiner, LLP, which has served as counsel to the Company. See "Certain
Transactions."
CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS
Interest of Counsel
Koerner Silberberg & Weiner, LLP has been general counsel to the Company
since 1989. During Fiscal 1999, the Company paid legal fees of $241,000 to
Koerner Silberberg & Weiner, LLP. The Company believes that the fees paid to
Koerner Silberberg & Weiner, LLP are comparable to those fees that would have
been paid to an unrelated third party law firm.

PROPOSAL 2: APPROVAL OF AN AMENDMENT
TO THE COMPANY'S 1996 STOCK OPTION AND GRANT PLAN
Introduction
The Board of Directors has adopted, subject to stockholder approval at the
Annual Meeting, an amendment to the Option Plan (the "Plan Amendment")
pursuant to which the number of shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance
under the Option Plan will be increased from 1,200,000 to 1,600,000.
The Board of Directors believes that the Company's growth and long-term
success depend in large part upon retaining and motivating key personnel and
that such retention and motivation can be achieved in part through the grant
of stock options. The Board of Directors also believes that stock options can
play an important role in the success of the Company by encouraging and
enabling the officers and other employees of the Company, upon whose judgment,
initiative and efforts the Company depends for sustained growth and
profitability, to acquire a proprietary interest in the long-term performance
of the Company. The Board of Directors anticipates that providing such persons
with a direct stake in the Company will ensure a closer identification of the
interests of the participants in the Option Plan with those of the Company,
thereby stimulating the efforts of such participants to promote the Company's
future success and strengthen their desire to remain with the Company. The
Board of Directors believes that the proposed increase in the number of shares
issuable under the Option Plan will help the Company accomplish these goals
and will keep the Company's equity incentive compensation in line with that of
its competitors.
As of the date of this Proxy Statement, options to purchase 1,023,103 shares
of Common Stock currently reserved for issuance under the Option Plan have
been granted.
Recommendation
THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR APPROVAL OF THE
---
AMENDMENT TO THE OPTION PLAN.
Summary of the Option Plan
The following description of certain features of the Option Plan is intended
to be a summary only and does not describe every provision of the Option Plan.
Number of Shares Issuable. Subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock
dividends and similar events, 1,200,000 shares of Common Stock are currently
authorized and reserved for issuance under the Option Plan. If adopted, the
Plan Amendment would increase the number of shares of Common Stock authorized
and reserved for issuance to 1,600,000. Shares of Common Stock underlying any
grants of options under the Option Plan which expire or are canceled or
terminated (other than by exercise) shall be added back to the shares of
Common Stock available for issuance under the Option Plan.
Plan Administration; Eligibility. The Option Plan provides that it shall be
administered by the full Board of Directors or a committee of not less than
three non-employee directors as appointed by the Board of Directors from time
to time. The Option Plan is currently administered by the Compensation
Committee, which consists of Messrs. Boylan, Kaufthal and Koerner, although
the Compensation Committee's actions with respect to the Option Plan are
subject to the approval of the full Board of Directors. The Board of Directors
may discontinue or amend the Option Plan at any time provided that the rights
and obligations under any option issued prior to an amendment to the Option
Plan can not be adversely affected by such amendment without the consent of
the optionee and provided that certain amendments, if required by regulatory
requirements or in certain other circumstances, require the approval of the
Company's stockholders. The Compensation Committee has full power to select,
from among the persons eligible for awards under the Option Plan, the
individuals to whom awards will be granted, to make any combination of awards
to participants, and to determine the specific terms of each award, subject to
the provisions of the Option Plan. Incentive Options (as defined below) may be
granted only to officers or other employees of the Company or its
subsidiaries, including members of the Board of Directors who are also
employees of the Company or its subsidiaries. Non-Qualified Options (as
defined below) may be granted or issued to officers or other employees of the
Company, directors and to consultants and other key persons who provide
services to the Company (regardless of whether they are also employees).
11
<PAGE>
Material Terms of Options. The Option Plan permits the grant of (i) options
to purchase shares of Common Stock intended to qualify as incentive stock
options under Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended
("Incentive Options"), and (ii) options that do not so qualify ("Non-Qualified
Options"). The exercise price of each option granted under the Option Plan is
determined by the Compensation Committee but, in the case of Incentive
Options, may not be less than 100% of the fair market value of the underlying
shares on the date of grant. No Incentive Option may be granted under the
Option Plan to any employee of the Company or any subsidiary who owns at the
date of grant shares of stock representing in excess of 10% of the voting
power of all classes of stock of the Company or a parent or a subsidiary
unless the exercise price for the stock subject to such option is at least
110% of the fair market value of such stock at the time of grant and the
option term does not exceed five years. Each option may be exercised only by
the optionee during his or her lifetime.
The term of each option is fixed by the Compensation Committee and, in the
case of an Incentive Option, may not exceed ten years from the date of grant.
The Compensation Committee determines at what time or times each option may be
exercised and, subject to the provisions of the Option Plan, the period of
time during which options may be exercised, if any, after termination of
employment for any reason. Options may be made exercisable in installments,
and the exercisability of options may be accelerated by the Compensation
Committee. Upon the exercise of options, the option exercise price must be
paid in full (i) in cash or by certified or bank check or other instrument
acceptable to the Compensation Committee, (ii) if the applicable option
agreement permits, by delivery of shares of Common Stock already owned by the
optionee, or (iii) through a "cashless" exercise procedure, subject to certain
limitations.
The Option Plan provides that in the case of certain transactions
constituting a change in control of the Company, all outstanding options shall
become fully exercisable whether or not such options were exercisable
immediately prior thereto. In addition, the Option Plan and the options issued
thereunder shall terminate upon the effectiveness of any such transaction or
event, unless provision is made in connection with such transaction for the
assumption of options theretofore granted, or the substitution for such
options of new options of the successor entity or parent thereof, with
appropriate adjustment as to the number and kind of shares and the per share
exercise prices. In the event of such termination, each holder of outstanding
options shall be permitted to exercise all options for a period of at least 15
days prior to the date of such termination.
Tax Aspects Under the U.S. Internal Revenue Code. Under current federal tax
law, an employee who receives a Non-Qualified Option does not generally
realize any taxable income at the time the option is granted. However, upon
the exercise of such an option, the employee will recognize ordinary income
measured by the excess of the then fair market value of the Common Stock over
the exercise price, and the Company generally will be entitled to a tax
deduction for a corresponding amount. On the other hand, an employee who
receives an Incentive Option does not generally realize any taxable income at
the time the option is granted or at the time it is exercised. The excess of
the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of exercise over the
exercise price is a "tax preference item," however, that may cause the
employee to be subject to the alternative minimum tax. Upon the sale of stock
received upon exercise of any Incentive Option, the optionee will recognize a
capital gain or loss or, depending on the holding period of the shares of
Common Stock, ordinary income, equal to the difference between the sale price
and the exercise price. The Company is not entitled to a tax deduction with
respect to the grant or exercise of an Incentive Option.
New Option Plan Benefits. No grants have been made with respect to the
additional shares of Common Stock which will be reserved for issuance if the
Plan Amendment is approved by stockholders. The number of shares of Common
Stock that may be granted in the event the Plan Amendment is approved by
stockholders is indeterminable at this time.

PROPOSAL 3: APPROVAL OF AN AMENDMENT
TO THE COMPANY'S 1996 DIRECTORS STOCK OPTION PLAN
Introduction
The Board of Directors has adopted, subject to stockholder approval at the
Annual Meeting, an amendment to the Directors Plan (the "Directors Plan
Amendment") pursuant to which the number of shares of Common Stock reserved
for issuance under the Directors Plan will be increased from 50,000 to
100,000.
The Board of Directors believes that the Company's growth and long-term
success depend in large part upon attracting and retaining key non-employee or
"independent" directors and that this may be achieved in part through the
grant of stock options. The Board of Directors also believes that stock
options can play an important role in the success of the Company by
encouraging and enabling the independent directors of the Company, upon whose
judgment, initiative and efforts the Company depends for guidance and
innovation, to acquire a proprietary interest in the long-term performance of
the Company. The Board of Directors believes that the proposed increase in the
number of shares issuable under the Directors Plan will help the Company
accomplish these goals and will keep the Company's directors' equity incentive
compensation in line with that of its competitors.
As of the date of this Proxy Statement, options to purchase 50,000 shares of
Common Stock currently reserved for issuance under the Directors Plan have
been granted.
Recommendation
THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS A VOTE FOR APPROVAL OF THE
AMENDMENT TO THE DIRECTORS PLAN.
Summary of the Directors Plan
The following description of certain features of the Directors Plan is
intended to be a summary only and does not describe every provision of the
Directors Plan.
Number of Shares Issuable. Subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock
dividends and similar events, 50,000 shares of Common Stock are currently
authorized and reserved for issuance under the Directors Plan. If adopted, the
Plan Amendment would increase the number of shares of Common Stock authorized
and reserved for issuance to 100,000. Shares of Common Stock underlying any
grants of options under the Directors Plan which expire or are canceled or
terminated (other than by exercise) shall be added back to the shares of
Common Stock available for issuance under the Directors Plan.
Plan Administration; Eligibility. The Directors Plan provides that it shall
be administered by the full Board of Directors or a committee of the Board of
Directors, as appointed by the Board of Directors from time to time. The
Directors Plan is currently administered by the Compensation Committee, which
consists of Messrs. Boylan, Kaufthal and Koerner, although the Compensation
Committee's actions with respect to the Directors Plan are subject to the
approval of the full Board of Directors.. The Board of Directors may
discontinue or amend the Directors Plan at any time provided that the rights
and obligations under any option issued prior to an amendment to the Directors
Plan can not be adversely affected by such amendment without the consent of
the optionee and provided that certain amendments, if required by regulatory
requirements or in certain other circumstances, require the approval of the
Company's stockholders. The Compensation Committee has full power to select,
from among the directors eligible for awards under the Directors Plan, the
directors to whom awards will be granted, to make any combination of awards to
participants, and to determine the specific terms of each award, subject to
the provisions of the Directors Plan.
13
<PAGE>
Material Terms of Options. The Directors Plan permits the grant of Non-
Qualified Options. The exercise price of each option granted under the
Directors Plan is determined by the Compensation Committee. Each option may be
exercised only by the optionee during his or her lifetime. The term of each
option is fixed by the Compensation Committee. The Compensation Committee
determines at what time or times each option may be exercised and, subject to
the provisions of the Directors Plan, the period of time during which options
may be exercised, if any, after termination of service as a director for any
reason. Options may be made exercisable in installments, and the
exercisability of options may be accelerated by the Compensation Committee.
Upon the exercise of options, the option exercise price must be paid in full
(i) in cash or by certified or bank check or other instrument acceptable to
the Compensation Committee, (ii) if the applicable option agreement permits,
by delivery of shares of Common Stock already owned by the optionee, or (iii)
through a "cashless" exercise procedure, subject to certain limitations.
The Directors Plan provides that in the case of certain transactions
constituting a change in control of the Company, all outstanding options shall
become fully exercisable whether or not such options were exercisable
immediately prior thereto. In addition, the Directors Plan and the options
issued thereunder shall terminate upon the effectiveness of any such
transaction or event, unless provision is made in connection with such
transaction for the assumption of options theretofore granted, or the
substitution for such options of new options of the successor entity or parent
thereof, with appropriate adjustment as to the number and kind of shares and
the per share exercise prices. In the event of such termination, each holder
of outstanding options shall be permitted to exercise all options for a period
of at least 15 days prior to the date of such termination.
Tax Aspects Under the U.S. Internal Revenue Code. Under current federal tax
law, a director who receives a Non-Qualified Option under the Directors Plan
does not generally realize any taxable income at the time the option is
granted. However, upon the exercise of such an option, the director will
recognize ordinary income measured by the excess of the then fair market value
of the Common Stock over the exercise price, and the Company generally will be
entitled to a tax deduction for a corresponding amount.
New Directors Plan Benefits. No grants have been made with respect to the
additional shares of Common Stock which will be reserved for issuance if the
Directors Plan Amendment is approved by stockholders. The number of shares of
Common Stock that may be granted in the event the Directors Plan Amendment is
approved by stockholders is indeterminable at this time.

OTHER MATTERS
Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance
Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires the Company's executive officers
and directors, and persons who own more than 10% of a registered class of the
Company's equity securities, to file reports of ownership and changes in
ownership with the SEC and Nasdaq. Officers, directors and greater than 10%
stockholders are required by SEC regulations to furnish the Company copies of
all Section 16(a) forms they file. To the Company's knowledge, based solely on
a review of the copies of such reports provided to the Company and written
representations that no other reports were required during, or with respect
to, Fiscal 1999, all Section 16(a) filing requirements applicable to its
executive officers, directors and greater than 10% beneficial owners have been
satisfied, except that Mr. Reynolds inadvertently failed to file a timely
report on Form 5 relating to gifts of securities exempt from Section 16(b) of
the Exchange Act.
Independent Public Accountants
The accounting firm of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP served as the Company's
independent public accountants during Fiscal 1999 and is expected to continue
to do so for fiscal year 2000. A representative of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP
is expected to be present at the Annual Meeting, will be given an opportunity
to make a statement if he so desires and will be available to respond to
appropriate questions.
Expenses of Solicitation
The cost of solicitation of proxies will be borne by the Company. In an
effort to have as large a representation at the Annual Meeting as possible,
special solicitation of proxies may, in certain instances, be made personally
or by telephone, telegraph or mail by one or more employees of the Company.
The Company also may reimburse brokers, banks, nominees and other fiduciaries
for postage and reasonable clerical expenses of forwarding the proxy materials
to their principals who are beneficial owners of Common Stock.
Stockholder Proposals
Any stockholder proposals submitted pursuant to Exchange Act Rule 14a-8 and
intended to be presented at the Company's 2000 Annual Meeting of Stockholders
must be received by the Company at its principal executive office on or before
April 12, 2000 to be eligible for inclusion in the proxy statement and form of
