PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

The following summary is qualified in its entirety by, and should be read in
conjunction with, the more detailed information and the Consolidated Financial
Statements and the related Notes thereto appearing elsewhere in this
Prospectus. Unless otherwise indicated, the information contained in this
Prospectus assumes (i) no exercise of the Underwriters' over-allotment option,
and (ii) a public offering price of $8.50 per share. The term "Company" as used
in this Prospectus means ACSYS, Inc. and its subsidiaries on a consolidated
basis.

THE COMPANY

ACSYS, Inc. is one of the leading accounting and finance temporary staffing
and permanent placement firms in the United States. The Company operates 16
offices serving the Atlanta, Charlotte, Central New Jersey, Orlando,
Philadelphia, Tampa and Washington, D.C. metropolitan markets. The Company was
formed in March 1997 and since its formation has acquired seven accounting and
finance specialty professional staffing companies which had operating histories
ranging from five to 23 years with an average operating history of 15 years.
The Company's goal is to build a national specialty professional staffing
business with offices in major United States metropolitan markets. The
Company's clients include Fortune 1000 companies, middle market companies,
governmental agencies and nonprofit organizations.

The Company's operating strategy is based on a focus on client relationships
and its philosophy that the central function of corporate management is to
support the staffing consultants who directly interact with clients. The
Company carries out its strategy through its decentralized "Hub-Center"
management model, which the Company believes fosters an entrepreneurial
environment. Hub-Centers, located in major metropolitan markets, are managed by
Division Presidents who are responsible for achieving the Company's operational
and financial goals and have significant latitude over such matters as hiring,
recruiting, compensation, pricing and sales management. Division Presidents are
supported by the Company's corporate services which include advertising,
marketing, public relations, management information systems support, training,
human resources, accounting and other back office functions. The Company
believes that its decentralized management structure enables it to be more
responsive to its clients' needs. Further, the Company believes that its
specialty professional focus makes it more attractive to staffing consultants
and temporary and permanent placement candidates.

The Company's goal is to build a national specialty professional staffing
business with offices in major United States metropolitan markets by pursuing
strategic acquisitions, enhancing and expanding existing offices, introducing
new services and opening new offices. The Company seeks to acquire specialty
professional staffing businesses with strong management and a significant
presence in what the Company believes to be desirable, growing markets. The
Company believes it will have a strategic advantage in competing for
acquisitions based on: (i) its focus on the specialty professional staffing
segment of the staffing industry; (ii) the personal relationships of its senior
executives with managers and owners of other specialty professional staffing
firms; (iii) the Company's entrepreneurial operating environment and Hub-Center
management model; (iv) the Company's merger and acquisition execution
capabilities; and (v) the Company's greater visibility and resources as a
public company. The Company plans to enhance and expand its existing offices by
adding quality personnel, pursuing new clients, expanding relationships with
its current clients and replicating its most successful sales, marketing and
business techniques in offices that are not currently using those techniques.
The Company also intends to introduce new specialty professional staffing
services in addition to its core accounting and finance staffing services. For
example, the Company recently introduced information technology ("IT") staffing
in several locations. The Company may develop or expand new services internally
by leveraging its existing staffing expertise and specialty professional
staffing reputation or it may acquire existing businesses that offer such new
specialty professional staffing services. Furthermore, the Company intends to
grow by opening new offices in both its current markets and new geographic
markets.

The Company derived 72.9% and 77.1% of its pro forma service revenues from
its temporary staffing operations for the nine months ended September 30, 1997
and the year ended December 31, 1996, respectively. Within the temporary
staffing sector, the Company competes primarily in the specialty professional
segment

3
<PAGE>

which, based on the Staffing Industry Report, had 1996 revenues of $5.0 billion
and was projected to grow 22% in 1997. The specialty professional segment
includes services such as accounting and finance, legal, laboratory and other
professional staffing services but excludes IT staffing. The IT segment of the
temporary staffing sector had 1996 revenues of $11.7 billion and was projected
to grow 27% in 1997. The IT segment includes services such as consulting,
systems and network integration and support, and supplemental staffing.
Specialty professional and IT staffing assignments generally have profit
margins greater than those of traditional clerical and light industrial
temporary staffing assignments. The Company believes that organizations are
increasingly accepting the idea of using specialty professional temporary
employees in traditional permanent professional roles and are planning to use
such employees as a continuing corporate strategy. Furthermore, traditional
accounting and finance services that were historically performed internally are
being outsourced.

The Company also operates in the placement and search sector of the staffing
industry, which had 1996 revenues of $9.1 billion and was projected to grow 14%
in 1997. The Company derived 27.1% and 22.9% of its pro forma service revenues
from its permanent placement operations for the nine months ended September 30,
1997 and the year ended December 31, 1996, respectively. Permanent placement
firms fulfill their clients' needs by identifying, evaluating and recommending
qualified candidates for positions. The Company believes that companies have
become increasingly reliant on permanent placement firms for several reasons,
including the increased difficulty of finding talented candidates, the reduced
costs and increased efficiency of outsourcing the recruiting process, and the
ability of placement firms to provide objective feedback on candidates and
advice regarding the appropriate qualifications and compensation for a
particular position.

(2) Excludes 2,000,000 shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under the
Company's 1997 Amended and Restated Stock Option Plan (the "Option Plan")
and 109,622 shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under options
otherwise outstanding. Options to purchase 244,820 shares of Common Stock
have been granted and were exercisable at September 30, 1997 with a
weighted average exercise price of $5.61 per share. The Company intends to
grant options to purchase approximately 950,000 shares of Common Stock upon
consummation of this Offering at an exercise price equal to the initial
public offering price per share. See "Management -- 1997 Stock Option
Plan."

----------------

On or before April 1, 1998, the Company expects to distribute to the persons
who were shareholders during the period the Company was treated as an S
corporation an amount which approximates such shareholders' unpaid federal and
state income taxes on the Company's taxable income for such period (the
"Distribution"). The Company estimates that the amount of the Distribution
would have been approximately $800,000 if the closing of the Offering had
occurred on September 30, 1997; that amount is reflected in the Consolidated
Financial Statements. The termination of the Company's S corporation status
will also result in the Company recording a nonrecurring income tax expense and
a corresponding net deferred income tax liability (the "Deferred Tax
Liability"). This amount would have been approximately $2.6 million if the
termination of S corporation status had occurred on September 30, 1997. The
actual amounts of the Distribution and the Deferred Tax Liability will be
determined as of the date of the termination of the Company's S corporation
status. As a result of the Deferred Tax Liability, the Company expects to incur
a net loss for the quarter, and possibly the year, in which the Company's S
corporation status is terminated. See "Prior S Corporation Status" and "Use of
Proceeds."

RISK FACTORS

An investment in the shares of Common Stock offered hereby involves a high
degree of risk. In addition to the other information in this Prospectus, the
following factors should be considered carefully in evaluating an investment
in the Common Stock offered hereby. This Prospectus contains "forward-looking
statements" relating to, without limitation, future economic performance,
plans and objectives of management for future operations and projections of
revenues and other financial items that are based on the beliefs of the
Company's management, as well as assumptions made by, and information
currently available to, the Company's management. The words "expect,"
"estimate," "anticipate," "believe" and similar expressions and variations
thereof are intended to identify forward-looking statements. The cautionary
statements set forth in this "Risk Factors" section and elsewhere in this
Prospectus identify important factors with respect to such forward-looking
statements, including certain risks and uncertainties, that could cause actual
results to differ materially from those in such forward-looking statements.

BRIEF COMBINED OPERATING HISTORY

The Company was incorporated in March 1997 and acquired the Acquired
Companies in transactions that occurred from May 1997 to September 1997. The
members of the Company's senior management have worked together and managed
the Company as a combined business for only a short time. There can be no
assurance that management will be able to oversee the Company and effectively
implement the Company's operating or growth strategies or that the Company
will be able to achieve any cost savings or effectively manage the combined
enterprise. The Company's historical financial results cover periods when the
Company was not under common control or management and, therefore, may not be
indicative of the Company's future financial or operating results. The
Company's inability to integrate the Acquired Companies could have a material
adverse effect on the Company's business, operating results and financial
condition and could make it unlikely that the Company's operations and
strategies will be successful. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations," "Management" and "Certain
Transactions."

ABILITY TO ACHIEVE AND MANAGE GROWTH

The Company intends to grow through acquisitions and internal growth,
including opening new offices. There can be no assurance that the Company will
be able to expand its market presence in its current locations or successfully
enter other markets through acquisitions or the opening of new offices. The
Company's ability to grow will depend on a number of factors, including the
availability of capital to fund acquisitions, existing and emerging
competition, the ability to maintain sufficient profit margins despite pricing
pressures and the strength of demand for temporary and permanent employees in
the Company's markets. The Company must also manage costs in a changing
regulatory environment, adapt its infrastructure and systems to accommodate
growth and recruit and train additional qualified personnel. Implementation of
the Company's acquisition and internal growth strategies, including
integrating acquired companies, introducing new services and opening new
offices, may divert management's attention, and the costs associated with such
activities may adversely affect the Company's profitability. The Company's
failure or inability to implement and manage its growth strategy successfully
may have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, operating
results and financial condition. See " -- Expected Losses" and "Management's
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations."

ACQUISITION RISKS

There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully
identify suitable acquisition candidates, complete acquisitions or integrate
acquired businesses into its operations. Once integrated, acquired companies
may not achieve levels of revenues, profitability or productivity comparable
to those of the Company's existing locations or otherwise perform as expected.
Acquisitions also involve special risks, including risks associated with
unanticipated problems, liabilities and contingencies, diversion of management
attention and possible adverse effects on earnings resulting from increased
goodwill amortization, increased interest costs, the issuance of additional
securities and difficulties related to the integration of the acquired
business, some or

6
<PAGE>

all of which could have a material adverse effect on the Company's business,
operating results and financial condition. The Company is unable to predict
whether or when any prospective acquisition candidate will become available or
the likelihood that any acquisition will be completed. In addition, the value
of Common Stock held by shareholders at the time of any acquisition may be
diluted if the Company issues Common Stock to complete such acquisition. See
"Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations -- Liquidity and Capital Resources," "Business -- Growth Strategy,"
"Business -- Legal Proceedings" and "Description of Capital Stock."

RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH OPENING NEW OFFICES

The Company also intends to grow by opening new offices. The Company
anticipates that new offices initially will produce significant operating
losses and will place demands on the Company's operational, administrative and
financial resources. In addition, the Company's future performance and
profitability will depend, in part, on its ability to successfully attract and
retain qualified personnel to manage the growth and operations of the new
offices. The Company has limited experience in opening new offices to date,
and there can be no assurance that the Company's new offices will be
successful. The opening of additional offices, individually or in the
aggregate, may have a material adverse effect on the Company's business,
operating results and financial condition. See "Management's Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and "Business --
Growth Strategy."

RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH NEW SERVICES

The Company also intends to grow by offering services other than those
presently provided by the Company. The Company's ability to successfully
develop new services depends on a number of factors, including its ability to
identify and effectively integrate new services into the Company's existing
operating structure. The identification and offering of new services in which
the Company has little or no experience or expertise could result in diversion
of management's attention, place significant demands on the Company's
operational, administrative and financial resources and produce operating
losses. There can be no assurance that the Company will be successful in
offering new services or that such services will not have a material adverse
effect upon the Company's business, operating results and financial condition.
See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations," "Business -- Growth Strategy" and "Business -- Services."

DEPENDENCE ON AVAILABILITY OF QUALIFIED PERSONNEL

The Company depends on its ability to attract and retain candidates and
staffing consultants who possess the skills and experience necessary to meet
the requirements of its clients. Competition for individuals with proven
skills in finance and accounting is intense. There can be no assurance that
qualified personnel will continue to be available to the Company in sufficient
numbers and on economic terms acceptable to the Company. The inability to
attract and retain such qualified personnel could have a material adverse
effect on the Company's business, operating results and financial condition.
See "Business -- Operating Strategy."

EXPECTED LOSSES

As a result of the restructuring of the employment relationship with Mark E.
Strassman, the Company's former President, the Company will record a
nonrecurring expense of approximately $512,000 in the quarter ended December
31, 1997. The Company anticipates that this expense, when coupled with
increased operating expenses incurred to support the Company's growth and
integrate the Acquired Companies, will result in an operating loss for such
quarter of as much as $500,000. Furthermore, as a result of the termination of
its S corporation status in connection with this Offering, the Company will
record a nonrecurring income tax expense and a corresponding net deferred
income tax liability. This amount would have been approximately $2.6 million
if the termination of S corporation status had occurred on September 30, 1997,
but the actual amount will be adjusted based on the tax effect of differences
in the bases in assets and liabilities for financial reporting and income tax
purposes as of the date of the termination of S corporation status. The
Company will pay the tax

7
<PAGE>

liability over a four-year period. As a result of this tax liability, the
Company expects to incur a net loss for the quarter, and possibly the year, in
which the Company's S corporation status is terminated. See "Prior S
Corporation Status," "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations" and "Certain Transactions --
Acquisitions -- Don Richard Associates of Washington."

DEPENDENCE ON KEY CLIENTS

Substantially all of the Company's contracts to perform services may be
cancelled or modified by the Company's clients at will without penalty. No one
client accounted for more than 4.5% of the Company's pro forma service
revenues for the year ended December 31, 1996 or the nine months ended
September 30, 1997. For the year ended December 31, 1996 and the nine months
ended September 30, 1997, the Company's six largest clients accounted for
approximately 13.2% and 14.1%, respectively, of the Company's pro forma
service revenues. The loss of or a material reduction in revenues from one or
more large clients could have a material adverse effect on the Company's
business, operating results and financial condition.

IMMEDIATE AND SUBSTANTIAL DILUTION

Purchasers of Common Stock offered hereby will experience immediate dilution
in the pro forma net tangible book value per share of Common Stock of $7.62
per share. See "Dilution."

EFFECT OF ECONOMIC FLUCTUATIONS

Demand for staffing services is significantly affected by the general level
of economic activity and unemployment in the United States. During periods of
slowed economic activity, the use of permanent placement firms tends to
decline significantly and many companies also reduce their use of temporary
employees. In addition, the Company may experience more competitive pricing
pressure during such periods of economic downturn. Therefore, any significant
economic downturn could have a material adverse effect on the Company's
business, operating results and financial condition.

COMPETITIVE MARKET

The staffing industry is highly competitive, with limited barriers to entry.
The Company competes for employees, candidates, clients and acquisitions in
national, regional and local markets with full service and specialized
staffing companies. A significant number of competitors have greater
marketing, financial and other resources than the Company and could provide
new or increased competition to the Company. Price competition in the staffing
industry is intense and pricing pressures from competitors and customers are
increasing. The Company expects that the level of competition will remain high
in the future, which could limit the Company's ability to maintain or increase
its market share or maintain adequate gross profits, either of which could
have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, operating results
and financial condition. There can be no assurance that the Company will
compete effectively with existing or potential competitors, or that
competition, particularly from companies with greater financial resources than
the Company, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's
business, operating results and financial condition. See "Business -- The
Staffing Industry" and "Business -- Competition."

DEPENDENCE ON MANAGEMENT

The continued growth and success of the Company's business is highly
dependent upon the continued services of its management, including David C.
Cooper, Chairman of the Board; Timothy Mann, Jr., Chief Executive Officer;
Edward S. Baumstein, President and Chief Operating Officer; and Beth Monroe-
Chase, Chief Development Officer. Currently, the loss of the services of one
or more of these key individuals could have a material adverse effect upon the
Company's business, operating results and financial condition. The loss of the
services of one or more of Messrs. Cooper, Mann or Ms. Monroe-Chase would
trigger an event of default under the Company's $15 million revolving credit
facility (the "Credit Facility"). The Company has entered into preliminary
discussions with its lender to amend the Credit Facility to eliminate this
provision upon the closing

8
<PAGE>

of the Offering. The Company does not maintain key person insurance policies
on the lives of any of these individuals. The Company's continued growth also
will depend upon its ability to attract and retain additional skilled
management personnel. See "Management."

INCREASED COSTS FROM GOVERNMENT REGULATION

The Company is required to pay a number of federal, state and local payroll
and related costs, including unemployment taxes, workers' compensation and
insurance, FICA, and Medicare, for its employees and personnel. Significant
increases in the effective rates of any payroll related costs likely would
have a material adverse effect upon the Company. The Company's costs could
also increase as a result of health care reforms or the possible imposition of
additional requirements and restrictions related to the placement of
personnel. Federal and state legislative proposals have included provisions
extending health insurance benefits to personnel who currently do not receive
such benefits. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to
increase the fees charged to its clients in a timely manner and in a
sufficient amount to cover increased costs, if any such proposals are adopted.
There is also no assurance that the Company will be able to adapt to future
regulatory changes made by the Internal Revenue Service, the Department of
Labor, or other state and federal regulatory agencies. The Company's inability
to increase its fees or adapt to future regulatory changes could have a
material adverse effect upon the Company's business, operating results and
financial condition. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations."

INDUSTRY RISKS

Temporary staffing services providers employ and place people generally in
the workplace of other businesses. Attendant risks of such activity include
possible claims of discrimination and harassment, employment of illegal
aliens, violations of wage and hour requirements, errors and omissions of its
temporary employees, and, particularly for the actions of professionals (e.g.,
accountants), misuse of client proprietary information, misappropriation of
funds, other criminal activity or torts and other similar claims. In some
instances the Company, pursuant to a written contract, has agreed to indemnify
clients against some or all of the foregoing matters. Moreover, in certain
circumstances, the Company may be held responsible for the actions at a
workplace of persons not under the Company's direct control. Although the
Company historically has not had any significant problems in this area, there
can be no assurance that the Company will not experience such problems in the
future or that the Company's insurance, if any, will be sufficient in amount
or scope to cover any such liability. The failure of any Company employee or
personnel to observe the Company's policies and guidelines, relevant client
policies and guidelines, or applicable federal, state or local laws, rules and
regulations, or other circumstances that cannot be predicted, could have a
material adverse effect upon the Company's business, operating results and
financial condition. Temporary staffing services providers are also affected
by fluctuations and interruptions in the business of their clients. For
example, inclement weather or work stoppages, which may require clients to
close or reduce their hours of operation, could have a material adverse effect
on the Company's business, operating results and financial condition.

NO PRIOR PUBLIC MARKET

Before this Offering, there has been no public market for the Common Stock
and there can be no assurance that an active trading market will develop or
continue following the Offering or that the market price of the Common Stock
will not decline below the initial public offering price. The initial public
offering price for the Common Stock will be determined by negotiation between
the Company and the Representatives (as defined herein) based on several
factors and may not be indicative of the market price for the Common Stock
after this Offering. See "Underwriting."

VOLATILITY OF STOCK PRICE; POTENTIAL FLUCTUATIONS IN QUARTERLY RESULTS

The Company believes that various factors such as general economic
conditions and changes or volatility in the financial markets, changing market
conditions in the accounting and finance industry and quarterly or annual
variations in the Company's financial results, some of which may be unrelated
to the Company's performance, could cause the market price of the Common Stock
to fluctuate substantially. In particular, quarterly revenues are difficult to
forecast, and the Company's expense levels are based, in part, on its
expectations as to future

9
<PAGE>

revenues. If revenue levels are below expectations, the Company may be unable
or unwilling to reduce expenses proportionately and operating results would
likely be adversely affected. As a result, the Company believes that period-
to-period comparisons of its results of operations are not necessarily
meaningful and should not be relied upon as indications of future performance.
Due to all of the foregoing factors, it is likely that in some future quarter
the Company's operating results will be below the expectations of public
market analysts and investors. In such event, the market price of the Common
Stock would likely be materially adversely affected.

SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE; POSSIBLE ADVERSE EFFECT ON MARKET PRICE

A substantial number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, as well as
shares of Common Stock issuable on exercise of stock options granted or to be
granted under the Option Plan, are or will be eligible for future sale in the
public market at prescribed times pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). Sales of such shares in the
public market, or the perception that such sales may occur, could adversely
affect the market price of the Common Stock or impair the Company's ability to
raise additional capital in the future through the sale of equity securities.
Upon completion of the Offering, there will be 10,923,220 outstanding shares
of Common Stock (11,335,720 outstanding shares if the Underwriters' over-
allotment option is exercised). In addition, the Company currently has
outstanding options to purchase 244,820 shares of Common Stock and anticipates
that it will grant options to purchase approximately 950,000 shares of Common
Stock prior to completion of the Offering. Of the total shares to be
outstanding after the Offering, the 2,750,000 shares of Common Stock sold in
the Offering (3,162,500 shares if the Underwriters' over-allotment option is
exercised in full) will be freely tradable by persons other than "affiliates"
of the Company without restriction under the Securities Act. The remaining
8,173,220 shares of Common Stock will be "restricted" securities within the
meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities Act and may not be sold in the
absence of registration under the Securities Act unless an exemption from
registration is available, including the exemptions contained in Rule 144. All
current shareholders of the Company have agreed not to sell, contract to sell,
or otherwise dispose of any shares of the Common Stock currently owned by them
for a period of 180 days after the date of this Prospectus without the prior
written consent of J.C. Bradford & Co. The Company plans to register the
shares issuable upon exercise of options granted under the Option Plan and,
upon such registration, such shares will be eligible for resale in the public
market unless such resale is contractually restricted. In addition, the
Company plans to register up to an additional 2,000,000 shares of its Common
Stock with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act as
soon as practicable after completion of this Offering for use by the Company
as all or a portion of the consideration to be paid in future acquisitions.
These shares may be freely tradable after their issuance, unless the sale of
such shares is contractually restricted. See "Management -- 1997 Stock Option
Plan," "Shares Eligible for Future Sale" and "Underwriting."

VOTING CONTROL BY MANAGEMENT

After the Offering, the executive officers and directors of the Company will
own approximately 49.5% of the outstanding Common Stock (approximately 47.7%
if the Underwriters' over-allotment option is exercised in full; these
percentages do not reflect currently exercisable options held by such
persons). As a result, the executive officers and directors of the Company,
voting together, will as a practical matter be able to control the outcome of
matters requiring a shareholder vote, including the election of directors,
adopting or amending provisions of the Company's Articles of Incorporation and
Bylaws, and approving certain mergers or other similar transactions, such as
sales of substantially all the Company's assets. Purchasers in this Offering
will become minority shareholders of the Company and will be unable to control
the management or business policies of the Company. See "Management" and
"Principal and Selling Shareholders."

INTANGIBLE ASSETS

As of September 30, 1997, approximately $15.8 million, or 55.2%, of the
Company's pro forma total assets were intangible assets. This amount is likely
to increase as the Company acquires other staffing companies in the future.
Any impairment or write-off of such assets could have a material adverse
effect on the Company's earnings, business, operating results and financial
condition.

10
<PAGE>

POTENTIAL ANTI-TAKEOVER EFFECTS OF ARTICLES OF INCORPORATION, BYLAWS, THE
GEORGIA BUSINESS CORPORATION CODE AND EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS

The Company's Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws, the Georgia Business
Corporation Code (the "GBCC") and employment agreements between the Company
and its executive officers contain certain provisions that could have the
effect of delaying, deferring or preventing an unsolicited change in the
control of the Company, which may adversely affect the market price of the
Common Stock or the ability of shareholders to participate in a transaction in
which they might otherwise receive a premium for their shares over the then-
current market price. The Company's Articles of Incorporation authorize the
Board of Directors to issue preferred stock ("Preferred Stock") without
shareholder approval and on such terms as the Board of Directors may
determine. Although no shares of Preferred Stock are currently outstanding and
the Company has no present plans to issue any shares of Preferred Stock, the
rights of the holders of Common Stock will be subject to, and may be adversely
affected by, the rights of holders of any Preferred Stock that may be issued
in the future. See "Description of Capital Stock -- Preferred Stock." The
Company's Bylaws provide that special meetings of shareholders may be called
by shareholders only upon a written request made by the holders of a majority
of the votes entitled to be cast on an issue and require compliance with
certain advance notice procedures to bring business before an annual meeting
of shareholders and to nominate directors. The "fair price" and "business
combinations" statutes under the GBCC may restrict certain business
combinations by interested shareholders. See "Description of Capital Stock--
Anti-Takeover Provisions and Georgia Law." The Company's executive officers
have entered into employment agreements with the Company that contain change
in control provisions. The change in control provisions may hinder, delay,
deter or prevent a tender offer, proxy contest or other attempted takeover
because the covered employees can terminate their employment if such
provisions are triggered and thereby receive severance pay of a lump sum equal
to three times the sum of (i) such officer's annual salary then in effect plus
(ii) the amount of such officer's bonus as calculated based on the results of
operations for the twelve months prior to such termination. See "Management --
Executive Compensation; Employment Agreements; Covenants Not to Compete."

DIVIDEND POLICY; RESTRICTIONS ON PAYMENT

The Company currently anticipates that after completion of this Offering all
of its earnings will be retained for development and expansion of its
business, provided that the Company anticipates that it will, on or before
April 1, 1998, make the Distribution to the persons who were shareholders
during the period the Company was treated as an S corporation. The Company
does not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. In
addition, the Credit Facility prohibits the payment of cash dividends without
the lender's consent. See "Prior S Corporation Status" and "Dividend Policy."

THE COMPANY

ACSYS, Inc., a Georgia corporation, is one of the leading providers of
accounting and finance temporary staffing and permanent placement services in
the United States. The Company was formed in March 1997 as a result of the
personal and professional relationships among the key executives and owners of
David C. Cooper & Associates (David C. Cooper) and Don Richard Associates of
Washington (Beth Monroe-Chase and Mark E. Strassman), which culminated in the
Company's acquisition of their respective firms in May 1997 and the
commencement of combined operations. Since its formation, the Company has
acquired seven temporary staffing businesses (the "Acquired Companies") as
summarized in the table below. For a description of the transactions pursuant
to which certain of these businesses were acquired, see "Certain
Transactions -- Acquisitions." The Company maintains its principal executive
offices at 2000 Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W., Suite 7650, Washington, D.C. 20006,
and its telephone number is (202) 872-0303. The Company maintains various
sites on the Internet's world wide web. Information contained in the Company's
world wide web sites shall not be deemed to be part of this Prospectus.
Industry information presented is based on sources which the Company believes
to be reliable but has not independently verified.

PRIOR S CORPORATION STATUS

Because the Company has been an S corporation for federal and certain state
income tax purposes, the Company's income has been allocated and taxable to
the Company's individual shareholders rather than to the Company. The Company
will terminate its S corporation status prior to the closing of this Offering
and will thereafter be taxed as a C corporation for federal and state income
tax purposes. On or before April 1, 1998, the Company expects to make the
Distribution to the persons who were shareholders during the period the
Company was treated as a S corporation. The Distribution will approximate the
amount that such shareholders will need to fund the payment of federal and
state income taxes payable on the Company's taxable income during that period.
The Company estimates that the amount of the Distribution would have been
approximately $800,000 if the termination of the Company's S corporation
status had occurred on September 30, 1997. The actual amount of the
Distribution will reflect the Company's taxable income through the termination
of its S corporation status. A portion of the proceeds of the Offering will be
used to make the Distribution. See "Use of Proceeds" and Note 2 of Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company's shareholders have agreed to
indemnify the Company for any federal, state and other income taxes (including
interest) incurred by the Company for the period for which it reported its
taxable income as an S corporation.

In addition, as a result of the termination of its S corporation status in
connection with this Offering, the Company will record a nonrecurring income
tax expense and a corresponding net deferred income tax liability (the
"Deferred Tax Liability"). The amount of the Deferred Tax Liability would have
been approximately $2.6 million if the termination of the Company's S
corporation status had occurred on September 30, 1997, but the actual amount
will be adjusted based on the tax effect of differences in the bases in assets
and liabilities for financial reporting and income tax purposes as of the date
of the termination of S corporation status. The Company will pay the Deferred
Tax Liability over a four-year period. As a result of the Deferred Tax
Liability, the Company expects to incur a net loss for the quarter, and
possibly the year, in which the Company's S corporation status is terminated.

DIVIDEND POLICY

On or before April 1, 1998, the Company expects to make the Distribution to
the persons who were shareholders during the period the Company was treated as
a S corporation. See "Prior S Corporation Status." The Company does not
anticipate paying any cash dividends on its Common Stock in the foreseeable
future because it intends to retain its earnings, if any, to finance the
expansion of its business and for general corporate purposes, including future
acquisitions. Any payment of future dividends will be at the discretion of the
Board of Directors and will depend upon, among other things, the Company's
earnings, financial condition, capital requirements, level of indebtedness,
contractual restrictions with respect to the payment of dividends and other
factors that the Company's Board of Directors deems relevant. The Credit
Facility currently prohibits the payment of dividends without the lender's
consent.

<PAGE>

USE OF PROCEEDS

The net proceeds to the Company from the sale of the 2,430,000 shares of
Common Stock offered by the Company in this Offering are estimated to be
approximately $17.2 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and other
offering expenses, all of which are payable by the Company. The Company will
not receive any proceeds from the sale of the shares offered by the Selling
Shareholders. See "Principal and Selling Shareholders."

The Company intends to use the net proceeds of this Offering as follows: (i)
approximately $11.1 million to repay the outstanding indebtedness under the
Credit Facility; (ii) approximately $1.0 million for capital expenditures,
primarily to enhance management information systems; (iii) approximately
$800,000 to fund the Distribution; and (iv) the balance of the net proceeds,
expected to be approximately $4.3 million, for working capital and general
corporate purposes, including acquisitions and opening new offices. The
Company estimates that the amount of the Distribution would have been
approximately $800,000 if the termination of the Company's S corporation
status had occurred on September 30, 1997. The actual amount of the
Distribution will reflect the Company's taxable income through the date of
termination of its S corporation status. See "Prior S Corporation Status."

The outstanding indebtedness under the Credit Facility was used to pay
certain obligations of the Acquired Companies and to pay for expenses incurred
in connection with acquisitions. Interest on the Credit Facility is due
quarterly and outstanding principal is due on May 31, 2000. Interest is
payable at a rate equal to, at the election of the Company, either: (A) the
greater of (i) the prime rate or (ii) the federal funds rate plus 0.5%, plus a
variable amount between 0% and 0.75%; or (B) LIBOR plus a variable amount
between 1.25% and 2.5%. The Credit Facility is secured by substantially all
assets of the Company and a pledge of 100% of the stock of all subsidiaries.
As of December 31, 1997, the amount outstanding under the Credit Facility was
approximately $11.1 million. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations -- Liquidity and Capital
Resources."

The Company continues to evaluate potential acquisitions and carry on
discussions with several potential acquisition candidates. The Company is not
currently a party to any binding agreements or commitments with respect to any
such acquisitions. There can be no assurance that any acquisitions will be
consummated on terms favorable to the Company, if at all. Pending application
of the net proceeds as described above, the Company intends to invest the net
proceeds in short-term, interest-bearing, investment grade securities. See
"Business -- Growth Strategy."

DILUTION

The pro forma deficit in net tangible book value of the Company at September
30, 1997 was $7.6 million, or $0.90 per share. See Pro Forma Consolidated
Financial Statements. The pro forma deficit in net tangible book value per
share represents the amount by which the Company's total liabilities exceed
the Company's net tangible assets divided by the pro forma number of shares of
Common Stock outstanding. After giving effect to the sale of the 2,430,000
shares of Common Stock offered by the Company in this Offering and the
application of the net proceeds as set forth under "Use of Proceeds," the
Company's pro forma net tangible book value as of September 30, 1997 would
have been $9.6 million, or $0.88 per share, representing an immediate increase
of $1.78 in net tangible book value per share to existing shareholders and an
immediate dilution of $7.62 in net tangible book value per share to persons
purchasing shares in the Offering. The following table illustrates this per
share dilution:

price of $8.50 per share.

The following table sets forth the number of shares of the Common Stock
purchased from the Company, the total consideration paid and the average price
per share paid by the Company's existing shareholders and to be paid by new
investors in this Offering, and before deducting estimated Offering expenses
and underwriting discounts.

Sales by Selling Shareholders in this Offering will reduce the number of
shares held by existing shareholders to 8,173,220, or 74.8%, and will increase
the number of shares to be held by new investors to 2,750,000, or 25.2%, of
the total number of shares of the Common Stock to be outstanding after this
Offering (3,162,500 shares, or 27.9%, if the Underwriters over-allotment
option is exercised in full). See "Principal and Selling Shareholders."

The foregoing tables assume no exercise of outstanding stock options. At
September 30, 1997, there were outstanding options to purchase 244,820 shares
of Common Stock at a weighted average exercise price of $5.61 per share. See
Note 8 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company also plans
to grant options to purchase approximately 950,000 shares of Common Stock to
substantially all of its full-time internal staff employees upon consummation
of the Offering.

with a weighted average exercise price of $5.61 per share. The Company
intends to grant options to purchase an aggregate of approximately 950,000
shares of Common Stock upon consummation of this Offering at an exercise
price equal to the initial public offering price per share. See
"Management -- 1997 Stock Option Plan."

SELECTED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL DATA

All of the financial data set forth below has been restated to give effect
to the Company's acquisitions of the Acquired Companies (other than C.P.A.
Staffing), each of which has been accounted for under the pooling of interests
method of accounting. See "The Company." Prior to the Offering, the Company
was an S corporation; accordingly, certain financial data may not be
comparable to or indicative of post-Offering results. The following table
contains certain financial and operating data and is qualified by the more
detailed Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included
elsewhere in this Prospectus. The Balance Sheet Data as of December 31, 1995
and 1996 and September 30, 1997 and the Statements of Operations Data for the
years ended December 31, 1994, 1995 and 1996 and the nine months ended
September 30, 1997 were derived from the Consolidated Financial Statements and
Notes thereto that have been audited by Arthur Andersen LLP, independent
public accountants, and are included elsewhere in this Prospectus. The Balance
Sheet Data as of December 31, 1992, 1993 and 1994 and the Statements of
Operations Data for the years ended December 31, 1992 and 1993 and the nine
months ended September 30, 1996 have been derived from the unaudited financial
statements of the Company which, in the opinion of management, have been
prepared on the same basis as the audited financial statements and include all
adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, which management
considers necessary for a fair presentation of the selected financial data
shown. The financial data shown for the nine months ended September 30, 1997
are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire
year ending December 31, 1997. The financial data shown below should be read
in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and the related
Notes thereto and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition
and Results of Operations" included elsewhere in this Prospectus.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

This Prospectus contains certain forward-looking statements relating to,
without limitation, future economic performance, plans and objectives of
management for future operations and projections of revenues and other
financial items that are based on the beliefs of the Company's management, as
well as assumptions made by, and information currently available to, the
Company's management. The cautionary statements set forth in the "Risk
Factors" section and elsewhere in this Prospectus identify important factors
with respect to such forward-looking statements, including certain risks and
uncertainties, that could cause actual results to differ materially from those
in such forward-looking statements. See "Risk Factors" for a discussion of
factors that could cause or contribute to such material differences. The
following discussion should be read in connection with the Consolidated
Financial Statements and the related Notes thereto included elsewhere in this
Prospectus.

INTRODUCTION

Each of the Company's acquisitions, other than C.P.A. Staffing, was
accounted for as a pooling of interests. Prior to its combination with the
Company in September 1997, AcSys Resources acquired C.P.A. Staffing in August
1997 in a transaction that was accounted for as a purchase. The Company's
historical financial statements have been restated to reflect the results of
operations and financial positions of the Acquired Companies (other than
C.P.A. Staffing). The results of operations for the year ended December 31,
1994 include the results of operations of Don Richard Associates of Washington
for the 10 months ended December 31, 1994. The results of operations of Don
Richard Associates of Tampa are included for the periods beginning on January
1, 1996, and the results of operations of C.P.A. Staffing are included
beginning August 12, 1997. As a result, historical combined results may not be
comparable to or indicative of future performance. The Company's revenues and
expenses may be significantly affected by the number and timing of the
acquisition of additional businesses, the opening of additional offices or the
introduction of new services. The timing of such expansion activities may also
affect period-to-period comparisons.

Temporary staffing service revenues are recognized based on hours worked by
assigned personnel. Generally, the Company bills its clients a fixed sum per
hour for the hours its temporary employees work. Temporary personnel placed by
the Company are generally Company employees; accordingly, the Company is
responsible for workers' compensation, unemployment compensation insurance,
Medicare and Social Security taxes and general payroll expenses. These
expenses are included within direct cost of services. Because the Company pays
its temporary employees only for the hours they actually work, wages for the
Company's temporary personnel are a variable cost that increases or decreases
in proportion to service revenues. The Company's gross profit is determined by
deducting the direct cost of services from the Company's service revenues.
Some of the temporary employees placed by the Company may decide to accept an
offer of permanent employment from the client and thereby "convert" the
temporary position to a permanent position, and a fee is generally paid to the
Company. Such fees are included in temporary staffing revenues herein.

Permanent placement service revenues are recognized when the employment
offer and acceptance has occurred and the candidate's employment start date
has been established. The Company's fee is usually structured as a percentage
of the placed candidate's first-year annual compensation. Generally, if a
candidate placed by the Company is terminated or resigns during a specified
guaranty period (typically 90-180 days), the Company either fills the position
without further charge or provides a prorated refund. The primary costs
associated with permanent placement service revenues are sales commissions to
staffing consultants. Commissions vary proportionately with permanent
placement service revenues. Consistent with industry practices, the Company
classifies all costs associated with permanent placement services as selling,
general and administrative expenses. Other selling, general and administrative
expenses include payroll for management and administrative employees, office
occupancy costs, sales and marketing expenses and other general and
administrative costs.

<PAGE>

Prior to their acquisition by the Company, the Acquired Companies were
managed as private companies with significant equity ownership by management.
The results of operations of the Company reflect the S corporation tax
structures of the Acquired Companies (except for Don Richard Associates of
Charlotte, a C corporation) which influenced, among other things, the
historical levels of their owners' compensation. The income taxes related to
Don Richard Associates of Charlotte are immaterial to the Consolidated
Financial Statements and are included in other expenses therein. The former
owners of the Acquired Companies agreed to adjustments in their compensation
and benefits, effective as of the dates of the respective acquisitions. The
following results of operations do not include those contractual compensation
adjustments for periods prior to the dates of the respective acquisitions.

The Company will terminate its S corporation status and become a C
corporation in connection with this Offering. On or before April 1, 1998, the
Company expects to make the Distribution to the persons who were shareholders
during the period the Company was an S corporation. The Distribution will
approximate the amount that such shareholders will need to fund the payment of
federal and state income taxes payable on the Company's taxable income during
that period. The Company estimates that the amount of the Distribution would
have been approximately $800,000 if the termination of the Company's S
corporation status had occurred on September 30, 1997; this amount is
reflected in the Consolidated Financial Statements. The actual amount of the
Distribution will reflect the Company's taxable income through the termination
of the Company's S corporation status.

As a result of the termination of its S corporation status in connection
with this Offering, the Company will record the Deferred Tax Liability. The
amount of the Deferred Tax Liability would have been approximately $2.6
million if the termination of the Company's S corporation status had occurred
on September 30, 1997. The actual amount will be adjusted based on the tax
effect of differences in the bases in assets and liabilities for financial
reporting and income tax purposes as of the date of the termination of S
corporation status. The Company will pay the Deferred Tax Liability over a
four-year period. As a result of the Deferred Tax Liability, the Company
expects to incur a net loss for the quarter, and possibly the year, in which
the Company's S corporation status is terminated. See "Prior S Corporation
Status" and "Use of Proceeds."

RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

Beginning in the third quarter of 1997, the Company undertook a number of
different activities intended to support the Company's growth. These
activities included the hiring of additional temporary and permanent placement
staffing consultants, the expansion of its IT and high-end accounting business
lines, the opening of new offices in Orlando, Florida and Washington, D.C. and
the augmentation of the Company's corporate infrastructure to enable it to
operate as a public entity. In the third and fourth quarters of 1997, the
Company hired 45 new temporary and permanent placement staffing consultants,
thereby increasing its total number of consultants to 163 at December 31,
1997. In addition, in the fourth quarter of 1997 the Company integrated the
operations of David C. Cooper & Associates and C.P.A. Staffing to create a
single Hub-Center in the Atlanta market. As a result of these growth
initiatives and integration activities, the Company's operating expenses
increased materially in the third and fourth quarters of 1997.

RESULTS FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1997 COMPARED TO RESULTS FOR
THE NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 1996

Service Revenues. Service revenues increased $8.2 million, or 24.3%, to
$42.0 million in the first nine months of 1997 from $33.8 million in the first
nine months of 1996. Temporary staffing service revenues increased $4.3
million, or 16.9%, to $29.9 million in the first nine months of 1997 from
$25.6 million in the first nine months of 1996. Professional temporary
staffing service revenues increased $5.0 million, or 22.8%, to $26.7 million
in the first nine months of 1997 from $21.7 million in the first nine months
of 1996, and clerical temporary staffing service revenues decreased $626,000,
or 16.3%, to $3.2 million in the first nine months of 1997 from $3.8 million
in the first nine months of 1996. Temporary staffing service revenues
increased primarily as a result of increased billings to existing clients, the
addition of new clients, increased revenues from offices opened in 1996 and
1995 and increased billing rates. This increase was offset by the Company's
elimination of certain high-volume, low-margin temporary staffing service
assignments in its Tampa and Charlotte Hub-Centers. Permanent placement
service revenues increased $3.9 million, or 47.3%, to $12.1 million in the
first nine months of 1997 from $8.2 million in the first nine months of 1996.
Permanent placement service revenues increased primarily due to increases in
permanent placements, the number of consultants, the productivity of
consultants and billings to existing clients. In addition, service revenues
for the first nine months of 1997 include service revenues of C.P.A. Staffing
from its acquisition date of August 12, 1997.

Gross Profit. Gross profit increased $5.2 million, or 30.6%, to $22.2
million in the first nine months of 1997 from $17.0 million in the first nine
months of 1996. Gross profit as a percentage of service revenues increased to
52.8% in the first nine months of 1997 from 50.3% in the first nine months of
1996, primarily due to an increase in the percentage of service revenues
derived from permanent placement services which increased to 28.7% of total
service revenues in the first nine months of 1997 from 24.2% in the first nine
months of 1996. Permanent placement service revenues generate higher gross
profits than temporary staffing service revenues because sales commissions and
other costs associated with permanent placement services are included in
selling, general and administrative expenses.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and
administrative expenses increased $5.2 million, or 40.4%, to $18.2 million in
the first nine months of 1997 from $12.9 million in the first nine months of
1996. Approximately $1.0 million of the increase was the result of an increase
in owners' compensation and $2.0 million of the increase was attributable to
sales commissions associated with the increase

21
<PAGE>

in service revenues. Owners' compensation was adjusted upon the Company's
acquisition of each of the Acquired Companies. In addition, the Company
incurred expenses in the first nine months of 1997 in connection with the
addition of personnel to support the Company's increased sales and marketing
efforts and the introduction of IT temporary staffing services. As a result of
the above factors, selling, general and administrative expenses as a
percentage of revenues increased to 43.2% in the first nine months of 1997
from 38.3% in the first nine months of 1996.

Combination Expenses. In the first nine months of 1997, the Company
recognized an expense of $1.7 million, or 4.1% of service revenues, for legal,
accounting and other related expenses in connection with the acquisitions of
the Acquired Companies.

Amortization and Depreciation. Amortization and depreciation decreased
$104,000, or 19.9%, to $417,000 in the first nine months of 1997 from $520,000
in the first nine months of 1996 because the amortization of a non-compete
agreement was completed in 1996. This decrease was offset by an increase in
amortization of goodwill acquired in the acquisition of C.P.A. Staffing, the
amortization of capitalized costs associated with the Credit Facility and
depreciation of office equipment and furniture.

Severance and Franchise Termination Costs. In the first nine months of 1996,
the Company incurred $459,000 in severance payments to a former employee of
AcSys Resources in connection with his departure from the Company. The Company
incurred no severance costs in the first nine months of 1997. In the first
nine months of 1997, Don Richard Associates of Tampa terminated its franchise
agreement and made a one-time payment to the franchisor of $170,000. Prior to
May 31, 1994, AcSys Resources operated under a franchise agreement, which
provided for various marketing and royalty payments to the franchisor based on
revenues. Effective May 31, 1994, AcSys Resources and the franchisor entered
into an agreement (the "AcSys Franchise Termination Agreement") which
terminated the franchise agreement and provided for payments to the franchisor
of $360,000, which were made and recorded as an expense in 1994. In addition,
AcSys Resources was required to pay to the franchisor 1% of revenues for the
period June 1, 1994 through May 31, 1995, and 2% of revenues for the period
June 1, 1995 through May 31, 1996. In the first nine months of 1996, the
Company incurred $108,000 of franchise termination costs under the AcSys
Franchise Termination Agreement. Because the obligations under the AcSys
Franchise Termination Agreement were satisfied in 1996, the Company did not
incur such costs in the first nine months of 1997. The Company is not
currently a party to any franchise agreements.

Operating Income. As a result of the above factors, operating income
decreased $1.3 million, or 42.2%, to $1.7 million in the first nine months of
1997 from $3.0 million in the first nine months of 1996. Operating income as a
percentage of service revenues decreased to 4.1% in the first nine months of
1997 from 8.8% in the first nine months of 1996.

Other Expense. Other expense, which is primarily comprised of net interest
expense, decreased to $588,000 in the first nine months of 1997 from $666,000
in the first nine months of 1996.

Income Before Income Taxes. As a result of the above factors, income before
income taxes decreased $1.2 million, or 51.1%, to $1.1 million in the first
nine months of 1997 from $2.3 million in the first nine months of 1996. Income
before income taxes as a percentage of service revenues decreased to 2.7% in
the first nine months of 1997 from 6.8% in the first nine months of 1996.

RESULTS FOR 1996 COMPARED TO RESULTS FOR 1995

Service Revenues. Service revenues increased $11.4 million, or 33.1%, to
$45.9 million in 1996 from $34.5 million in 1995. Temporary staffing service
revenues increased $8.2 million, or 30.8%, to $34.8 million in 1996 from $26.6
million in 1995. The increase in temporary staffing service revenues is
primarily a result of increased billings to existing clients, the addition of
new clients, increased billing rates and increased revenues from offices
opened in 1996 and 1995. Permanent placement service revenues increased $3.2
million, or 40.8%, to $11.2 million in 1996 from $7.9 million in 1995.
Permanent placement service revenues increased primarily due to an increase in
the number of permanent placements made in 1996, additional permanent
placement consultants and increased productivity. In addition, 1996 service
revenues reflect $2.5 million in total service revenues from Don Richard
Associates of Tampa. Due to a change in ownership of Don Richard Associates of
Tampa as of January 1, 1996, the Company's operating results for 1995 do not
include the operating results of that entity.

22
<PAGE>

Gross Profit. Gross profit increased $6.3 million, or 37.5%, to $23.0
million in 1996 from $16.8 million in 1995. Gross profit as a percentage of
service revenues increased to 50.2% in 1996 from 48.6% in 1995, primarily
because permanent placement service revenues comprised a larger portion of
total service revenues, increasing to 24.3% of total service revenues in 1996
from 23.0% in 1995. The Company's direct cost of services as a percentage of
temporary staffing service revenues decreased to 65.8% in 1996 from 66.7% in
1995, primarily as a result of the Company's focus on higher gross margin
temporary staffing assignments and increased billing rates.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and
administrative expenses increased $6.0 million, or 46.7%, to $18.8 million in
1996 from $12.8 million in 1995. Approximately $2.1 million of the increase
was attributable to sales commissions associated with the increase in
permanent placement revenues, and $1.4 million was the result of an increase
in owners' compensation of the Acquired Companies. In addition, 1996 selling,
general and administrative expenses reflect the expenses of Don Richard
Associates of Tampa whereas 1995 selling, general and administrative expenses
do not. Selling, general and administrative expenses also increased as a
result of corporate expenses incurred in 1996 to support the Company's growth.
Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of service
revenues increased to 40.9% in 1996 from 37.1% in 1995, due to the increase in
owners' compensation and an increase in sales commission rates.

Amortization and Depreciation. Amortization and depreciation decreased
$13,000, or 1.9%, to $661,000 in 1996 from $674,000 in 1995.

Severance and Franchise Termination Costs. In 1996, the Company incurred
$459,000 in severance payments to a former employee of AcSys Resources in
connection with his departure from the Company and $108,000 of costs
associated with the AcSys Franchise Termination Agreement, compared with
$166,000 of franchise termination costs in 1995.

Operating Income. As a result of the above factors, operating income
decreased $86,000, or 2.8%, to $3.0 million in 1996 from $3.1 million in 1995.
Operating income as a percentage of service revenues decreased to 6.7% in 1996
from 9.0% in 1995.

Other Expense. Other expense, which is primarily comprised of net interest
expense, decreased to $803,000 in 1996 from $865,000 in 1995 principally due
to lower average debt levels.

Income Before Income Taxes. As a result of the above factors, income before
income taxes decreased $24,000, or 1.1%, to $2.2 million in 1996 from $2.3
million in 1995. Income before income taxes as a percentage of service
revenues decreased to 4.9% in 1996 from 6.5% in 1995.

RESULTS FOR 1995 COMPARED TO RESULTS FOR 1994

Service Revenues. Service revenues increased $7.1 million, or 25.9%, to
$34.5 million in 1995 from $27.4 million in 1994. Temporary staffing service
revenues increased $5.4 million, or 25.6%, to $26.6 million in 1995 from $21.2
million in 1994. The increase in temporary staffing service revenues was
primarily due to the opening of new offices, improved marketing strategies and
changes in operating procedures including the implementation of consultant
training to improve productivity. Permanent placement service revenues
increased $1.7 million, or 26.8%, to $7.9 million in 1995 from $6.2 million in
1994. The increase in permanent placement service revenues is primarily due to
an increase in the number of permanent placements made in 1995, additional
permanent placement consultants and increased productivity. In addition, 1995
service revenues reflect 12 months of service revenues from Don Richard
Associates of Washington as compared to only 10 months of service revenues in
1994.

Gross Profit. Gross profit increased $3.4 million, or 25.3%, to $16.8
million in 1995 from $13.4 million in 1994. Gross profit as a percentage of
service revenues remained relatively constant at 48.6% for 1995 compared to
48.8% in 1994.

23
<PAGE>

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses. Selling, general and
administrative expenses increased $2.6 million, or 25.2%, to $12.8 million in
1995 from $10.2 million in 1994. Approximately $894,000 of the increase was
attributable to sales commissions associated with the increase in permanent
placement revenues. In addition, the Company incurred 12 months of selling,
general and administrative expenses at Don Richard Associates of Washington in
1995 as compared to only 10 months of selling, general and administrative
expenses in 1994. To a lesser extent, the increase was due to the addition of
consultants. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of
service revenues decreased slightly to 37.1% in 1995 from 37.3% in 1994.

Amortization and Depreciation. Amortization and depreciation increased
$128,000, or 23.3%, to $674,000 in 1995 from $547,000 in 1994. The increase
resulted from depreciation related to capital expenditures for information
technology systems made at the beginning of 1995 and the end of 1994 and a
full year of amortization of intangible assets acquired in connection with the
acquisition of the Don Richard Associates of Washington operations in 1994.

Severance and Franchise Termination Costs. In 1995, the Company incurred
$166,000 of costs associated with the AcSys Franchise Termination Agreement
compared with $561,000 of franchise termination costs in 1994. No severance
payments were made in either 1995 or 1994.

Operating Income. As a result of the above factors, operating income
increased $1.1 million, or 52.6%, to $3.1 million in 1995 from $2.0 million in
1994. Operating income as a percentage of service revenues increased to 9.0%
in 1995 from 7.4% in 1994.

Other Expense. Other expense, which is primarily comprised of net interest
expense, increased to $865,000 in 1995 from $853,000 in 1994.

Income Before Income Taxes. As a result of the above factors, income before
income taxes increased $1.1 million, or 89.2%, to $2.3 million in 1995 from
$1.2 million in 1994. Income before income taxes as a percentage of service
revenues increased to 6.5% in 1995 from 4.3% in 1994.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Net cash provided by operating activities was $1.4 million, $2.8 million and
$1.9 million in 1994, 1995 and 1996 and $2.4 million and $1.6 million for the
nine months ended September 30, 1996 and 1997, respectively. The decrease in
cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30,
1997 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 1996 was due to a
decrease in net income and an increase in accounts receivable, partially
offset by an increase in accrued liabilities. The reduction in net cash
provided by operating activities in 1996 as compared to 1995 was primarily due
to a significant increase in accounts receivable in 1996.

24
<PAGE>

The increase in net cash provided by operating activities in 1995 as compared
to 1994 was due to higher net income before amortization and depreciation in
1995.

Net cash used in investing activities was $126,000, $274,000, $487,000 and
$2.3 million in 1994, 1995, 1996 and the first nine months of 1997,
respectively. Cash used in investing activities for the periods presented was
attributable to the acquisition of C.P.A. Staffing in the nine month period
ended September 30, 1997 and capital expenditures, including computer and
telecommunications equipment, furniture and office equipment. The Company
expects to make capital expenditures of $1.0 million, primarily to enhance
management information systems.

Net cash provided by financing activities was $1.2 million for the nine
month period ended September 30, 1997 and was primarily attributable to
borrowings for the acquisition of C.P.A. Staffing. Net cash used in financing
activities was $669,000, $1.8 million and $1.8 million in 1994, 1995 and 1996,
respectively. Cash used in financing activities for these periods was
primarily attributable to net repayments of long-term debt and capital lease
obligations and distributions to shareholders.

The Company's principal uses of cash are to fund: temporary employee payroll
expense and employer related payroll taxes; investment in capital equipment
such as IT systems; start-up expenses of new offices; expansion of services
offered; and costs relating to unusual transactions such as acquisitions,
severance and franchise termination costs and the Deferred Tax Liability,
which will be paid over a four-year period. Temporary employees are paid
weekly, and customer remittances are generally received by the Company within
45 days from the time work was performed by temporary employees. Expansion of
the Company's services requires expenditures for marketing and personnel costs
at varied levels up to six months in advance of generating any service
revenues. In addition, for the first nine months of 1997, approximately
$900,000 of cash was used to pay Combination Expenses and costs related to
obtaining the Credit Facility.

The Company entered into the Credit Facility on May 16, 1997. Borrowings
under the Credit Facility are available for working capital and other
corporate purposes, including acquisitions, and have been used to repay
certain debt of the Acquired Companies and to pay for expenses incurred in
connection with acquisitions. Interest on the Credit Facility is due
quarterly, and outstanding principal is due on May 31, 2000. Interest is
payable at a rate equal to, at the election of the Company, either: (A) the
greater of (i) the prime rate or (ii) the federal funds rate plus 0.5%, plus a
variable amount between 0% and 0.75%; or (B) LIBOR plus a variable amount
between 1.25% and 2.5%. At December 31, 1997 the Company owed $11.1 million in
principal on the Credit Facility. The Credit Facility contains covenants
requiring the maintenance of certain financial ratios and specified net worth
and limiting the incurrence of additional indebtedness, the sale of
substantial assets, consolidations or mergers by the Company and the payment
of dividends. As a result of a nonrecurring expense and certain growth
initiative and integration costs incurred by the Company in the third and
fourth quarters of 1997, the Company is in default under certain covenants in
the Credit Facility. The Company has, however, obtained a waiver of such
defaults from the lender. See "--Recent Developments." The Credit Facility is
secured by all assets of the Company and a pledge of 100% of the stock of all
subsidiaries, which have guaranteed the repayment of indebtedness under the
Credit Facility.

The net proceeds from the Offering, after deducting underwriting discounts
and offering expenses, are expected to total approximately $17.2 million. The
Company intends to use the net proceeds of this Offering as follows: (i)
approximately $11.1 million to repay the outstanding indebtedness under the
Credit Facility; (ii) approximately $1.0 million for capital expenditures,
primarily to enhance management information systems; (iii) approximately
$800,000 to fund the Distribution; and (iv) the balance of the net proceeds,
expected to be approximately $4.3 million, for working capital and general
corporate purposes, including acquisitions and opening new offices. The
Company also intends to register up to an additional 2,000,000 shares of its
Common Stock as soon as practicable after completion of this Offering to use
as consideration in connection with future acquisitions.

While there can be no assurance, the Company believes that the proceeds of
this Offering, funds currently available on hand, funds to be provided by
operations and funds available under the Credit Facility will be sufficient to
meet the Company's anticipated needs for working capital for the next twelve
months. The Company's estimate of the time that the proceeds of this Offering,
funds currently on hand, funds provided by operations and funds available
under the Credit Facility will be sufficient to meet the Company's working
capital

needs is a forward-looking statement that is subject to risks and
uncertainties. Actual results and working capital needs could differ
materially from those estimated due to a number of factors, including the use
of such proceeds to fund acquisitions. In addition, acquisitions may require
additional debt and equity financing.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB")
issued Statement No. 128, "Earnings Per Share." This statement establishes
standards for computing and presenting earnings per share and is effective for
financial statements issued for periods ending after December 15, 1997.
Earlier application of this statement is not permitted and, upon adoption,
requires restatement (as applicable), of all prior-period earnings per share
data presented. Management believes that the implementation of this standard
will not have a material effect on the Company's calculation of earnings per
share.

In February 1997, the FASB issued Statement No. 129, "Disclosure of
Information about Capital Structure." This statement establishes standards for
disclosing information about an entity's capital structure. Management intends
to comply with the disclosure requirements of this statement, which are
effective for periods ending after December 15, 1997. Management believes that
the implementation of this standard will not have a material effect on the
Company's financial statements.

In June 1997, the FASB issued Statement No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive
Income" ("SFAS 130"). This statement requires companies to classify items of
other comprehensive income by their nature in a financial statement and
display the accumulated balance of other comprehensive income separately from
retained earnings and additional paid-in capital in the equity section of a
statement of financial position. SFAS 130 is effective for financial
statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 1997.
Management believes that SFAS 130 will not have a material effect on the
Company's financial statements.

In June 1997, the FASB issued Statement No. 131, "Disclosure About Segments
of an Enterprise and Related Information" ("SFAS 131"). This statement
establishes additional standards for segment reporting in the financial
statements and is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15,
1997. Management believes that SFAS 131 will not have a material effect on the
Company's financial statements.

BUSINESS

GENERAL

ACSYS, Inc. is one of the leading accounting and finance temporary staffing
and permanent placement firms in the United States. The Company operates 16
offices serving the Atlanta, Charlotte, Central New Jersey, Orlando,
Philadelphia, Tampa and Washington, D.C. metropolitan markets. Since its
formation in March 1997, the Company has acquired seven accounting and finance
specialty professional staffing companies which had operating histories
ranging from five to 23 years with an average operating history of 15 years.
The Company's goal is to build a national specialty professional staffing
business with offices in major United States metropolitan markets. The
Company's clients include Fortune 1000 companies, middle market companies,
governmental agencies and nonprofit organizations.

The Company's operating strategy is based on a focus on client relationships
and its philosophy that the central function of corporate management is to
support the staffing consultants who directly interact with clients. The
Company carries out its strategy through its decentralized "Hub-Center"
management model, which the Company believes fosters an entrepreneurial
environment. Hub-Centers, located in major metropolitan markets, are managed
by Division Presidents who are responsible for achieving the Company's
operational and financial goals and have significant latitude over such
matters as hiring, recruiting, compensation, pricing and sales management.
Division Presidents are supported by the Company's corporate services which
include advertising, marketing, public relations, management information
systems support, training, human resources, accounting and other back office
functions. The Company believes that its decentralized management structure
enables it to be more responsive to its clients' needs. Further, the Company
believes that its specialty professional focus makes it more attractive to
staffing consultants and temporary and permanent placement candidates.

The Company's goal is to build a national specialty professional staffing
business with offices in major United States metropolitan markets by pursuing
strategic acquisitions, enhancing and expanding existing offices, introducing
new services and opening new offices. The Company seeks to acquire specialty
professional staffing businesses with strong management and a significant
presence in what the Company believes to be desirable, growing markets. The
Company believes it will have a strategic advantage in competing for
acquisitions based on: (i) its focus on the specialty professional staffing
segment of the staffing industry; (ii) the personal relationships of its
senior executives with managers and owners of other specialty professional
staffing firms; (iii) the Company's entrepreneurial operating environment and
Hub-Center management model; (iv) the Company's merger and acquisition
execution capabilities; and (v) the Company's greater visibility and resources
as a public company. The Company plans to enhance and expand its existing
offices by adding quality personnel, pursuing new clients, expanding
relationships with its current clients and replicating its most successful
sales, marketing and business techniques in offices that are not currently
using those techniques. The Company also intends to introduce new specialty
professional staffing services in addition to its core accounting and finance
staffing services. For example, the Company recently introduced IT staffing in
several locations. The Company may develop or expand new services internally
by leveraging its existing staffing expertise and specialty professional
staffing reputation or it may acquire existing businesses that offer such new
specialty professional staffing services. Furthermore, the Company intends to
grow by opening new offices in both its current markets and new geographic
markets.

THE STAFFING INDUSTRY

The staffing industry generally consists of companies which provide four
basic services to clients: temporary staffing, placement and search,
professional employer organization services and outplacement. Based on
information from the Staffing Industry Report, staffing industry revenues
increased from approximately $31.4 billion in 1991 to approximately $74.4
billion in 1996, representing a compound annual growth rate of 19%. According
to industry sources, in 1996 the staffing industry employed approximately 5.2
million people per day, or approximately 4% of the entire United States
workforce. While the industry has undergone consolidation in the last few
years, it remains fragmented with over 9,300 temporary staffing firms and over
3,400 placement and search firms. Within the overall staffing industry, the
Company primarily provides services in the temporary staffing sector, which
had 1996 revenues of $47.1 billion and grew from 1991 revenues of $21.5
billion representing a compound annual growth rate of 17%. The Company also
provides services in the placement and

27
<PAGE>

search sector, which had 1996 revenues of $9.1 billion and grew from 1991
revenues of $4.2 billion also representing a compound annual growth rate of
17%.

The Company's temporary staffing services are currently focused on the
accounting and finance portion of the specialty professional segment, which
had 1996 revenues of $5.0 billion, representing 11% of the $47.1 billion
temporary staffing sector. The Staffing Industry Report recently estimated
that the specialty professional segment will grow 22% in 1997. In addition to
accounting and finance, the specialty professional segment, as defined by the
Staffing Industry Report, includes legal, laboratory and other professional
staffing services (excluding IT and technical services). The specialty
professional segment is one of the fastest growing segments of the temporary
staffing sector, with profit margins greater than those of the traditional
clerical and light industrial temporary staffing business. The Company has
also recently begun to offer IT staffing services. The IT/technical segment of
the temporary staffing sector had 1996 revenues of $11.7 billion, representing
25% of the temporary staffing sector, and was expected to grow 27% in 1997.
This segment includes IT services such as consulting, systems and network
integration and support, and IT supplemental staffing.

Temporary staffing has become widely accepted as a valuable tool for
managing personnel costs and for meeting specialized or fluctuating employment
requirements. Temporary staffing companies offer a means of dealing with
uneven or peak work loads caused by such predictable events as vacations, tax
work, month-end activities, special projects, and seasonal increases in work
volume, and such unpredictable events as illnesses, resignations and
emergencies. In addition, employees increasingly look to temporary assignments
as a way to build experience, make contacts, and receive training and valuable
exposure to a variety of work settings, as well as a means to gain full-time
employment. The Company believes that more companies are not only accepting
the idea of using professional temporary employees in traditional permanent
professional roles, but are planning to use such employees as a continuing
corporate strategy. Furthermore, traditional accounting services that were
historically performed internally are being outsourced.

The placement and search sector of the staffing industry had 1996 revenues
of $9.1 billion, representing 12% of the staffing industry. This sector was
expected to grow 14% in 1997, according to the Staffing Industry Report.
Personnel placed by companies in this sector cover a wide range of industries
and a variety of position levels. Placement and search firms fulfill their
clients' needs by identifying, evaluating and recommending qualified
candidates for positions. Placement and search firms are generally
characterized as either retained search or contingency placement, depending
upon how their fees are determined. Retained search firms receive a retainer
at the outset of an assignment, whereas contingency firms, such as the
Company, receive compensation upon successful completion of a search and
placement of a recommended candidate. Contingency firms typically fill mid-
level positions for a fee equal to a percentage of the candidate's first year
annual salary.

The Company believes that companies have become increasingly reliant on
placement and search firms for a number of reasons. The continued strength and
growth of the economy has reduced the pool of available specialty
professionals and increased the difficulty of finding talented candidates.
Professional employee turnover has increased as more employees spend their
careers with a number of different organizations in various locations. Many
companies are outsourcing non-core activities, such as recruiting, to reduce
costs and increase efficiencies. A permanent placement firm may also serve in
a consultative role to the client by providing objective feedback on
candidates and advice regarding the appropriate qualifications and
compensation for a particular position.

The Company believes that a number of factors may increase demand for
specialty professional temporary staffing and permanent placement services.
These factors include:

. Use of temporary employees to fill higher-skilled positions.

. Employers' difficulty locating qualified employees.

. Desire of employers to utilize candidates with the latest training and
current skill sets demanded in the increasingly technology-reliant
business environment.

28
<PAGE>

. Trend to outsource non-core functions to reduce costs and increase
efficiencies.

. Employment candidates' attraction to industry-focused specialty service
providers.

. Employment candidates seeking more flexibility and opportunities to gain
experience in a variety of work settings.

OPERATING STRATEGY

The key elements of the Company's operating strategy are as follows:

Focus on Specialty Professional Markets. The Company focuses on staffing
positions that require specialized skills such as accounting, finance and
banking. The Company believes that its years of experience, recognized local
brand names, reputation for client service and the industry expertise of its
staffing consultants give it a competitive advantage. For example, many of the
Company's staffing consultants are certified public accountants. The Company
believes that these specialized characteristics also provide an opportunity
for the Company to generate higher margins than those of traditional clerical
and light industrial staffing companies.

Emphasize Client Relationships. The Company believes that client
relationships and the staffing consultants who are responsible for developing
and maintaining those relationships are the Company's most important assets.
These consultants are encouraged to respond directly and innovatively to
satisfy clients' staffing needs, and the Company has built its corporate level
services to support its consultants in that effort. Moreover, the Company
believes that the central function of management, including the Company's
senior executive team, is to support the consultants who directly interact
with the client.

Foster Entrepreneurial Environment with Hub-Center Management Model. The
Company employs a decentralized operating strategy which it has termed its
Hub-Center management model. The Company's operations in each market,
including any satellite offices in that market, are managed by local managers
called Division Presidents. The Company believes it has a strong market share
in each of its major markets largely due to the commitment, ability and
creativity of the Division Presidents who drive each local business. The
Company fosters this entrepreneurial environment by giving its Division
Presidents the authority to respond quickly and creatively to client needs.
Division Presidents are responsible for achieving operational and financial
objectives, including revenues and earnings growth, and have authority over
hiring, recruiting, compensation, pricing and sales management. The Company
believes that this coupling of accountability and authority, combined with the
support of the Company's corporate level support services, enables its
Division Presidents to compete successfully in the local marketplace. The
Company also believes this entrepreneurial environment allows the Company to
attract talented managers and successfully serve its clients' needs.

Provide Corporate Level Support. The Company's philosophy is that the
central function of corporate management is to support the staffing
consultants who directly interact with clients. The Company offers its
Division Presidents corporate level support to lessen their administrative
burden and allow them to focus on servicing clients and growing the business.
These support functions include advertising, marketing, public relations,
management information systems support, training, human resources, accounting
and other back office functions. The Company's corporate management has
identified and continues to identify "best practices" for its Division
Presidents to use in their day-to-day operations.

The Company's focus on client relationships and its philosophy of servicing
those relationships with its Hub-Center management model and corporate level
support is graphically depicted as follows:

[CHART APPEARS HERE]

Support Services." Between the bottom oval and the middle oval is a wide two-
pronged arrow pointing upward to the middle oval, and between the middle oval
and the top oval is a narrower single arrow pointing toward the top oval.]

Attract, Motivate and Retain Staffing Consultants with Specialty
Professional Skills. The Company places great emphasis on attracting,
motivating and retaining highly-skilled staffing consultants. The staffing
industry has generally been characterized by a high degree of employee
turnover. The Company believes its decentralized, entrepreneurial environment
and focus on the specialty professional market enhance the attractiveness of
the Company to staffing consultants. In addition, the Company believes that
its compensation policies effectively motivate its personnel. The Company also
plans to grant stock options to substantially all of its operating personnel
upon consummation of the Offering, which the Company believes will further
motivate its operating personnel.

GROWTH STRATEGY

The Company's goal is to build a national specialty professional staffing
business with offices in major United States metropolitan markets. The key
elements of its growth strategy in order of relative importance are as
follows:

Pursue Strategic Acquisitions. The Company intends to acquire accounting and
finance temporary staffing and permanent placement businesses and other
specialty professional staffing businesses, such as IT and legal staffing
companies. The Company seeks acquisition candidates with characteristics such
as attractive geographic market locations, strong market shares, recognized
local brand names and new or expanded specialties that can be added to the
Company's existing services. The Company also focuses on acquisition targets
that have strong management teams and complementary cultures. The Company
believes it will have a strategic advantage in competing for acquisitions
based on: (i) its focus on the specialty professional staffing segment of the
staffing

30
<PAGE>

industry; (ii) the personal relationships of its key executives with managers
and owners of other specialty professional staffing firms; (iii) the Company's
entrepreneurial operating environment and Hub-Center management model; (iv)
the Company's merger and acquisition execution capabilities; and (v) the
Company's greater visibility and resources as a public company. To accomplish
acquisitions, the Company plans to use equity, debt, available cash and
combinations of all three as consideration. In addition, the Company intends
to register up to 2,000,000 additional shares of its Common Stock as soon as
practicable after the completion of the Offering for use in future
acquisitions. The Company continues to evaluate potential acquisitions and
carry on discussions with several potential acquisition candidates. The
Company is not currently a party to any binding agreements or commitments with
respect to any such acquisitions, and there can be no assurance that any
acquisitions will be consummated on terms favorable to the Company, if at all.
See "--Acquisitions."

Enhance and Expand Existing Offices. The Company plans to develop and expand
its current offices by adding temporary staffing and permanent placement
consultants, pursuing new clients, expanding current client relationships,
cross-marketing temporary and permanent services, and replicating successful
sales, marketing and business techniques in offices that are not currently
using those techniques. The Company relies on its Division Presidents to drive
this internal growth and to determine which sales, marketing and business
techniques are most appropriate for their respective local markets.

Introduce New Services. The Company plans to develop new specialty
professional staffing services internally by leveraging its existing expertise
and reputation in specialty professional staffing services, particularly in
markets where the Company's clients have solicited the Company for those new
services. Examples of the Company's internal development of new service
offerings are its recent commencement of IT staffing services in several
offices, with plans to offer IT services in other offices, and ACSYS Advantage
Accountant, a program in which the Company seeks to staff higher-end positions
such as chief financial officers and controllers on an interim basis. The
Company currently has several new service development projects in process,
including: professional sales permanent placement; litigation support;
outsourced internal audit function; and vendor-on-premise, contract services
or project management. All of these potential new services are currently
offered only on a limited basis, and there can be no assurance that they will
be offered throughout the Company. The Company may also acquire specialty
staffing services firms with new or expanded services and market those
services through its existing offices.

Open New Offices. The Company has opened three offices since its formation
and plans to continue to grow its business by opening new offices. The Company
will open two types of new offices, spin-offs from existing offices and "de
novo" offices. A spin-off office is opened in an existing geographic market by
breaking a branch office in two. The purpose of such an office opening is to
provide the Company greater geographic coverage and increased market
penetration at a low marginal cost. The Company has recently opened two spin-
off offices, one in Alexandria, Virginia (a spin-off from the Company's
existing Tyson's Corner, Virginia office), and one in Landover, Maryland (a
spin-off from the Company's Washington, D.C. office). The Company will also
open de novo offices that will represent the Company's initial presence in new
geographic markets. The Company recently opened a de novo office in Orlando,
Florida. The Company has established a team of experienced management
personnel led by Beth Monroe-Chase, the Company's Chief Development Officer,
who will lead the Company's future de novo office opening efforts and oversee
the management of these new offices until they reach a level of performance
the Company believes is sufficient to allow them to operate as stand-alone
Hub-Centers led by a Division President.

SERVICES

The Company currently offers the following services:

Accounting and Finance Temporary Staffing. The Company's accounting and
finance temporary staffing operations are the core of the Company's business
and accounted for approximately 68.5% and 66.1% of its pro forma service
revenues in 1996 and the first nine months of 1997, respectively. The Company
provides temporary staffing services to clients in a variety of industries,
such as telecommunications, banking,

31
<PAGE>

manufacturing and government. Its temporary staffing clients are principally
Fortune 1000 companies, middle market companies, governmental agencies and
nonprofit organizations. Some of the temporary employees placed by the Company
may decide to accept an offer of permanent employment from the client and
thereby "convert" the temporary position to a permanent position. During a
typical week, the Company has more than 1,000 accounting and finance temporary
personnel on assignment at an average bill rate for temporary staffing
employees of approximately $21 per hour.

Accounting and Finance Permanent Placement. The Company's accounting and
finance permanent placement business accounted for 22.9% and 27.1% of its pro
forma service revenues in 1996 and the first nine months of 1997,
respectively. The Company's permanent placement business specializes in
placing mid-level accounting, financial, tax and banking personnel in
permanent positions with a diverse mix of companies ranging from small
businesses and nonprofit organizations to Fortune 1000 companies.
Substantially all of the Company's permanent placement business is on a
contingency basis; thus, the Company is not compensated for a permanent
placement assignment unless a candidate recommended by the Company is hired by
a client. Fees for successful permanent placements are paid only by the
employer and are generally equal to a percentage of the new employee's first-
year annual compensation. Generally, if a candidate placed by the Company is
terminated or resigns during a specified guaranty period (typically 90-180
days), the Company either fills the position without further charge or
provides a prorated refund. The Company placed a total of 1,509 permanent
placement candidates during 1996 and 1,394 candidates during the first nine
months of 1997, respectively. The Company's average placement fee was
approximately $7,900 and $9,000 in 1996 and the first nine months of 1997,
respectively, on a pro forma basis.

Types of positions in which the Company places temporary staffing employees
and permanent candidates include:

</TABLE>

Information Technology. The Company began offering IT staffing services in
the third quarter of 1997 in its Philadelphia, Central New Jersey, Charlotte
and Tampa Hub-Centers. The Company generally offers both IT temporary staffing
and IT permanent placement services. The Company is leveraging its existing
client contacts in the accounting and finance area by seeking to fill their IT
staffing needs as well. The Company may expand its IT business into other
offices and also may acquire other IT staffing firms as it seeks to diversify
its staffing services.

Other Staffing Services. The Company's corporate staffing services place
temporary office and administrative personnel, ranging from executive
assistants to office managers. The Company began offering these services in
its Washington, D.C. Hub-Center in response to clients' desire to staff
candidates with a stronger base of skills than those typically available from
other staffing providers. These services accounted for 8.6% and 6.8% of the
Company's pro forma service revenues in 1996 and the first nine months of
1997, respectively, and are included under temporary staffing service revenues
in the Consolidated Financial Statements.

ACQUISITIONS

A key element of the Company's growth strategy is to acquire accounting and
finance and other specialty professional staffing businesses. While the
industry has undergone significant consolidation in the last few years, it
remains a fragmented market with over 9,300 temporary staffing firms and over
3,400 placement and search firms. To accomplish acquisitions, the Company
plans to use equity, debt, available cash and combinations of all three as
consideration. In addition, the Company intends to register up to 2,000,000
additional shares of its

32
<PAGE>

Common Stock as soon as practicable after the completion of the Offering for
use in future acquisitions. The Company believes that it will have a strategic
advantage in competing for acquisitions as a result of: (i) its focus on the
specialty professional staffing segment of the staffing industry; (ii) the
personal relationships of its key executives with managers and owners of other
professional staffing firms; (iii) the Company's decentralized,
entrepreneurial operating environment and Hub-Center management model; (iv)
the Company's merger and acquisition execution capabilities; and (v) the
Company's greater visibility and resources as a public company.

The Company believes that its focus on the specialty professional segment of
the staffing industry gives it a strategic advantage in attracting acquisition
candidates that prefer to affiliate with a professionally-focused company
rather than a traditional clerical and light industrial-based staffing
company. A number of the members of the Company's management have been active
or currently hold leadership positions in national and regional specialty
professional staffing trade associations, including the American Association
of Finance and Accounting, a national association of privately held accounting
and finance staffing firms. In addition, members of the Company's management
have previous work experience with national staffing companies or "Big Six"
accounting firms. As a result, these persons have developed personal
relationships with the owners of many independent specialty professional
staffing firms. The Company also believes that its commitment to maintaining a
strong professional permanent placement business will give it a strategic
advantage in attracting acquisition candidates whose businesses have a
permanent placement focus. Furthermore, the Company believes it can use its
temporary staffing expertise to build significant temporary staffing
businesses from these established professional permanent placement bases.

The Company has established an internal integration team led by its Chief
Executive Officer that is charged with quickly and cost effectively
integrating acquired companies into the Company's operating environment. An
immediate integration goal will be to consolidate back office administrative
functions to allow local management to devote more time and attention to
increased sales and profitability.

The Company will generally make two kinds of acquisitions --"platform"
acquisitions and "tuck-under" acquisitions. A platform acquisition represents
the Company's entry into a new geographic market through the acquisition of a
company that has a material share of its sector of the specialty professional
staffing business in that market and which will serve as a Hub-Center for that
market. Most of these companies' clients are likely to be middle market
businesses but may also include Fortune 1000 companies. In addition, a
platform acquisition may increase the Company's services and provide the base
from which to introduce such services into the Company's other locations.
Tuck-under acquisitions are acquisitions of smaller companies that fit well
with the Company's existing locations and present growth opportunities via
synergies with the Company's existing business. Such acquisitions may present
an alternative to opening a spin-off office.

Since its formation in March 1997 the Company has acquired seven accounting
and finance staffing companies. The Acquired Companies are described briefly
below.

HUB-CENTER MANAGEMENT MODEL

The Company's decentralized operating strategy uses a Hub-Center management
model in which the Company's operations in each market are managed by Division
Presidents. See "-- Operating Strategy -- Foster Entrepreneurial Environment
with Hub-Center Management Model." The Company's current Hub-Centers, offices
and 1996 pro forma service revenues for each Hub-Center are listed below:

CORPORATE SUPPORT SERVICES

The Company offers or is planning to offer the following corporate level
support functions to its Hub-Centers:

Training. The Company offers its staffing consultants and other employees a
two week orientation and training program as well as ongoing courses offering
instruction and training in client service and development, team building,
management techniques and employment law. The primary objective is to teach
employees how to build client relationships and manage others utilizing proven
business techniques. With respect to its Division Presidents in particular,
the Company seeks talented and motivated managers to serve as Division
Presidents and believes that its entrepreneurial Hub-Center operating
philosophy requires its Division Presidents to be exceptionally strong
managers and leaders. The Company seeks to cultivate these qualities in its
Division Presidents by using both training materials developed in-house and
outside consultants to conduct training sessions. In addition, the Company is
creating a company-wide database of "best practices" for its Division
Presidents to use in their day-to-day operations.

Information Systems. The Company has a management information systems
department that is actively reviewing its IT assets and needs and currently
plans to maintain and enhance each of the systems now in place. The Company is
in the process of implementing technology systems in each of the Acquired
Companies to provide several back office support functions. The Company is
building a corporate "Intranet" to facilitate the sharing of corporate
resources. The Company is also migrating to a common desktop computing office
suite platform.

Advertising, Marketing and Public Relations. The Company has developed and
continues to develop a full range of advertising, marketing and public
relations services, including development of classified advertising, regional
print advertising campaigns, radio advertising, premiums, public relations,
direct mail and promotions. These programs focus on both clients and
employment candidates.

Risk Management. The Company is centralizing the risk management function
and is reviewing its insurance coverage in an effort to maintain adequate
coverage at a reasonable cost. In addition, as part of its training effort,
the Company conducts seminars on pertinent topics (particularly employment
law-related matters) for its employees to help educate its work force and
reduce the Company's exposure to losses.

Human Resources. The Company has a human resources team designed and
committed to establishing and maintaining systems that assist and enhance
employee work-life, while helping to ensure the growth and health of the
organization as a whole. The Human Resources department is full-service with
responsibility for employee relations, compensation, training and development
and employee benefits. Because of the unique nature of the staffing industry,
Human Resources is also responsible for compliance issues in the recruitment
process. The Human Resources department structure is decentralized with a core
staff working at the corporate office combined with regional Human Resources
consultants strategically placed in key markets to provide local, in-person
assistance and support.

Legal Services. The Company is centralizing its legal services function and
is developing detailed policies regarding the retention of legal counsel and
certain guidelines within which Division Presidents are limited in making
decisions relating to legal issues.

Treasury Management. The Company has centralized its treasury management
function by establishing a lock box cash management system. In this system,
all customer payments are received at a central location maintained by the
Company's bank. The Company believes this system results in better internal
control by centralizing the cash collection portion of the revenue cycle.

Accounting. All accounting functions, including management financial
information, are being centralized. The processing of customer invoices and
temporary employee payroll, which are critical to customer service,

35
<PAGE>

will remain in the Hub-Centers. Division Presidents will be unencumbered by
routine accounting matters and will be supplied with timely and accurate
financial information allowing them to focus on operations and results.

RECRUITING

The Company uses a variety of methods to recruit qualified temporary
staffing and permanent placement candidates. The Company's primary recruiting
methods are networking and direct solicitation by staffing consultants. The
Company also has recruiting managers in several offices whose primary
responsibility is to market the Company's services to potential candidates.
Other recruiting methods include: advertising in newspaper classified ads and
in various other print media, including Yellow Pages and local and national
trade journals; advertising on radio; maintaining an Internet website;
recruiting on college campuses; participating in job fairs; offering referral
bonuses for new temporary employees; conducting direct mail campaigns; and
maintaining a good reputation and high visibility within the community through
community service. The Company receives a significant number of referrals from
past candidates due to its professional reputation, quality service and the
draw of the Company's permanent placement practice. Furthermore, the Company
believes that candidates are attracted to the Company by the number and
quality of the positions the Company has available, and that the availability
of good candidates increases its client base.

LOCAL SALES AND MARKETING

The Company emphasizes local sales and marketing efforts, which are
generally conducted by each Hub-Center. In addition to the Company's Division
Presidents and staffing consultants, the Company has 25 salespersons in its
Hub-Centers whose primary responsibility is to market the Company's services
to potential new clients. The Company's client-oriented advertising primarily
consists of print advertisements in national newspapers, Yellow Pages,
magazines and trade journals; and radio advertisements. Direct marketing
through mail and telephone solicitation also constitutes a significant portion
of the Company's total advertising. The Company also seeks endorsements and
affiliations with local and regional accounting and finance professional
organizations and conducts public relations activities designed to enhance
recognition of the Company and its services. Local employees are encouraged to
be active in civic organizations and industry trade groups.

EMPLOYEES

The Company had 250 full-time internal staff employees as of December 31,
1997. Temporary employees placed by the Company are the Company's employees
while they are working on assignments. Neither the Company's internal staff
nor its temporary employees are represented by a collective bargaining
agreement. Hourly wages for the Company's temporary employees are determined
according to market conditions. The Company pays mandated costs of employment,
including the employer's share of social security taxes (FICA), federal and
state unemployment taxes, unemployment compensation insurance, general payroll
expenses and workers' compensation insurance. The Company offers access to
various insurance programs and benefits to its temporary employees. The
Company believes its employee relations are satisfactory.

COMPETITION

The staffing industry is highly competitive, with limited barriers to entry.
The Company believes that availability and quality of employment candidates,
reliability of service and price of services are the most significant
competitive factors in the specialty professional staffing sector. The Company
believes it derives a competitive advantage from its long experience with and
commitment to the specialty professional staffing market, its strong local
market presence and reputation, and its various marketing activities. A number
of firms offer services similar to the Company's on a national, regional or
local basis. The Company competes for clients, candidates and acquisitions
with many local and regional companies and also faces competition from a
number of international and national specialty professional staffing companies
that include Robert Half International Inc., Romac International, Inc.,
Accountants, Inc., Source Services, Inc. and Accountants On Call, as well as
professional staffing divisions of larger general staffing firms, such as
Interim Services Inc., Norrell, Inc. and Olsten Corporation. These firms have
materially greater financial and operating resources than the Company.

SERVICE MARKS AND TRADENAMES

The Company operates under the following tradenames and service marks: AcSys
Resources, Inc.(R), the AcSys Resources, Inc. logo, AcSys Resources, Inc.
Providing the Perfect Fit(R), C.P.A. Staffing, David C. Cooper &
Associates(R), DCCA Professional Temporaries, DCCA(R), the DCC&A logo, Rylan
Forbes Consulting Group, Signature Staffing, Don Richard Associates of

FACILITIES

The Company owns no real property. It leases its corporate office and all of
its local offices. The Company believes its facilities are adequate for its
needs and does not anticipate any material difficulty in replacing such
facilities or securing facilities for new offices.

LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

On November 13, 1997, a lawsuit was filed against the Company, Cama of
Tampa, Inc. ("Cama") and Stephen S. Tutwiler ("Tutwiler") by L. Robert Frank,
Jr. ("Frank") and L. Robert Frank & Associates, Inc. in the Circuit Court of
the Thirteenth Judicial Circuit, Hillsborough County, Florida. The lawsuit
alleges Frank and Tutwiler agreed to form a corporation owned one half by each
to provide IT staffing services; that such services were instead provided
through a division of Cama; and that Frank was entitled to a portion of the
stock of Cama and thus to a portion of the 131,143 shares of Common Stock
issued to Tutwiler when it acquired Cama. The plaintiffs assert numerous
claims, including fraud, civil conspiracy and alleged misstatements and
omissions in this Prospectus regarding the Company's ownership of Cama. The
plaintiffs seek to recover (i) $27,000 allegedly due to Frank, (ii) his
alleged portion of Tutwiler's shares of Common Stock, and (iii) compensatory
and other damages. Frank also seeks an accounting and employment by the
Company. The Company has moved to dismiss the claim against it and to compel
arbitration of the claims against Cama and Tutwiler. The Company intends to
vigorously defend the plaintiffs' allegations. An adverse result could have a
material effect on the Company. There is no other pending litigation which the
Company considers material.

39
<PAGE>

COMPENSATION COMMITTEE INTERLOCKS AND INSIDER PARTICIPATION

The Board of Directors intends to establish a Compensation Committee at the
first meeting of the Board of Directors following the closing of the Offering.
The Board of Directors has not previously had a Compensation Committee, and
the functions of the Compensation Committee historically have been performed
by the Board of Directors. See "-- Committees of the Board of Directors."

DIRECTOR COMPENSATION

Directors who are employees of the Company do not receive additional
compensation for serving as directors. Each director who is not an employee of
the Company ("Non-Employee Directors") will receive $1,000 for each meeting of
the Board of Directors attended and for each meeting of a committee of the
Board of Directors (unless the committee meeting is held on the same day as a
meeting of the Board of Directors). All directors of the Company are
reimbursed for out-of-pocket expenses incurred in attending meetings of the
Board of Directors or its committees and for other expenses incurred in their
capacity as Directors.

The Company will grant to each Non-Employee Director, upon his or her
initial appointment to the Board of Directors, a stock option to purchase
50,000 shares of Common Stock pursuant to the Option Plan. In addition, the
Company will grant to each Non-Employee Director, once each quarter during the
Non-Employee Director's term as a director, options to purchase 4,000 shares,
with a lifetime cap of 150,000 shares per Non-Employee Director. The option
price will be equal to the fair market value at the date of each grant, and
each option will have a 10-year term. One third of the options will vest on
each of the first three anniversaries of the date of grant, provided that all
unvested options will vest upon a change in control of the Company (as defined
in the option agreement) or the death of the Non-Employee Director.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION; EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENTS; COVENANTS NOT TO COMPETE

The Company was incorporated in March 1997 and conducted no operations in
1996. The Company anticipates that during 1997 its most highly compensated
executive officers will be Ms. Monroe-Chase and Messrs. Cooper, Mann,
Baumstein and Gallagher (the "Named Executive Officers").

Each of Messrs. Cooper, Mann, Baumstein and Ms. Monroe-Chase has entered
into employment agreements with the Company that provide for an annual base
salary of $200,000. Each executive officer (except Messrs. Mann and Gallagher)
will also receive a bonus to be agreed upon and based upon certain performance
criteria as set forth in his or her agreement. Mr. Mann's agreement provides
for an annual bonus equal to 2.0% of the year-to-year increase in the
Company's earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, and
the grant of stock options as described under "-- Option Grants." Mr.
Gallagher's agreement provides for an annual base salary of $125,000, such
bonus as the Board of Directors may determine up to an amount equal to 15% of
his then-current base salary, and the grant of stock options as described
under "-- Option Grants." None of the Company's executive officers is expected
to receive perquisites the value of which exceeds the lesser of $50,000 or 10%
of the salary and bonus of such executive. Executive bonuses for 1997 have not
yet been determined.

Each employment agreement for the Named Executive Officers is for a term of
three years and continues thereafter for additional one year terms until
either the Company or the executive officer elects not to renew the agreement.
Each of these agreements provides that, in the event of a termination of
employment either (i) by the Company without cause (as defined in the
agreement) or (ii) by the employee following a change in control (as defined
in the agreement) or a breach by the Company of such executive's employment
agreement or the registration rights agreement described in "Description of
Capital Stock -- Registration Rights," such executive officer will be entitled
to receive from the Company a lump sum severance payment equal to three times
the sum of his or her then-current annual salary plus the amount of his or her
bonus calculated using the results of the operations of the Company for the
twelve months prior to such termination. In such event, the non-compete
provisions discussed below would not apply to such executive officer. If an
executive officer resigns for any other reason, such executive officer will be
entitled to receive from the Company a lump sum severance payment equal to his
or her then current annual salary. If an executive is terminated upon a
determination by the Board of Directors that such executive officer failed to
meet performance expectations, then such executive officer will be entitled to
receive a lump sum severance payment equal to his or her base salary for the
greater of the remainder of the term of his or her employment agreement or one
year.

40
<PAGE>

Each Named Executive Officer employment agreement contains a covenant not to
compete with the Company for a period of two years immediately following
termination of employment and an obligation not to solicit any employees or
customers of the Company for a period of one year following termination of
employment.

OPTION GRANTS

The Company has granted and agreed to grant stock options to two of the
Named Executive Officers, Timothy Mann, Jr. and Lester E. Gallagher, III, as
described below.

Timothy Mann, Jr. Pursuant to Mr. Mann's employment agreement, the Company
has granted him options to purchase 135,198 shares of Common Stock at an
exercise price of $8.00 per share, the fair market value of the Common Stock
on the date of the grant as determined by the Board based upon the report of
an independent appraiser. These options are fully vested and have a 10-year
term. In addition, also pursuant to Mr. Mann's employment agreement, the
Company has agreed to grant to Mr. Mann, upon the effective date of the
Offering, options to purchase a number of additional shares of Common Stock
equal to 1% of the shares of Common Stock outstanding on the date of the
Offering, assuming the Underwriters' over-allotment option is exercised in
full, at an exercise price equal to the public offering price of the shares
sold in the Offering. Therefore, upon the effective date of the Offering the
Company will grant to Mr. Mann options to purchase 113,357 shares of Common
Stock at an exercise price equal to the offering price of shares in the
Offering. One-half of these options vest on each of the first two
anniversaries of the effective date of the Offering, and the options have a
10-year term. All of Mr. Mann's unvested options vest immediately if he is
terminated without cause or resigns for good reason or upon a change in
control (as such terms are defined in his employment agreement).

Lester E. Gallagher, III. In January 1997 AcSys Resources granted options to
Mr. Gallagher that were converted into options to purchase 18,771 shares of
Common Stock at a price of $2.66 per share in connection with the Company's
acquisition of AcSys Resources. These options are fully vested and expire in
2006. In addition, pursuant to Mr. Gallagher's employment agreement, the
Company has agreed to grant to him, upon the effective date of the Offering,
options to purchase 66,229 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price equal
to the offering price of shares in the Offering. One third of these options
vest on each of first, second and third anniversaries of the effective date of
the Offering. All of Mr. Gallagher's unvested options vest immediately if he
is terminated without cause or resigns for good reason or upon a change in
control (as such terms are defined in his employment agreement).

1997 STOCK OPTION PLAN

The Board of Directors and the Company's shareholders approved the Option
Plan which became effective in May 1997. The purpose of the Option Plan is to
advance the interests of the Company and its shareholders by affording certain
employees and directors of the Company, as well as key consultants and
advisors to the Company, an opportunity to acquire or increase their
proprietary interests in the Company. The objective of the issuance of stock
options under the Option Plan is to promote the growth and profitability of
the Company because the optionees will be provided with an additional
incentive to achieve the Company's objectives through participation in its
success and growth and by encouraging their continued association with or
service to the Company. The Company intends to grant options to purchase
approximately 950,000 shares of Common Stock to substantially all of its full-
time internal staff employees upon consummation of this Offering at an
exercise price equal to the initial public offering price per share.

Awards under the Option Plan are granted by the Board of Directors but will
be granted by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors when it is
established. Awards under the Option Plan may include incentive stock options
("ISOs") and/or non-qualified stock options ("NQSOs"). The Compensation
Committee of the Board of Directors will administer the Option Plan and
generally has discretion to determine the terms of an option grant, including
the number of option shares, option price, term, vesting schedule, the post-
termination exercise period and whether the grant will be an ISO or NQSO.
Notwithstanding this discretion: (i) the number of shares subject to options
granted to any individual in any calendar year may not exceed 500,000 shares;
(ii) if an option is intended to be an ISO and is granted to a shareholder
holding more than 10% of the combined voting power of all classes of the
Company's stock or of its parent or subsidiary on the date of the

41
<PAGE>

grant of the option, the option price per share of Common Stock may not be
less than 100% of the fair market value of such share at the time of grant or
110% of the fair market value of such shares; and (iii) the term of any option
may not exceed 10 years, or 5 years if the option is intended to be an ISO and
is granted to a shareholder owning more than 10% of total combined voting
power of all classes of stock on the date of the grant of the option.

The maximum number of shares of Common Stock that currently may be subject
to outstanding options, determined immediately after the grant of any option,
is 2,000,000 shares. The Option Plan provides that the number of shares of
Common Stock available for issuance thereunder shall be automatically
increased on the first trading day of each calendar year by the lesser of (i)
three percent of the number of shares outstanding on the preceding trading day
or (ii) 500,000 shares. Shares of Common Stock which are attributable to
awards which have expired, terminated or been canceled or forfeited during any
calendar year are available for issuance or use in connection with future
awards during such calendar year.

The Option Plan will remain in effect until terminated by the Board of
Directors. No ISO may be granted after May 2007. The Option Plan may be
amended by the Board of Directors without the consent of the shareholders of
the Company, except that any amendment, although effective when made, will be
subject to shareholder approval within one year after approval by the Board of
Directors if the amendment increases the total number of shares issuable
pursuant to ISOs or changes the class of employees eligible to receive ISOs
that may participate in the Option Plan.

The Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1993 added Section 162(m) to the
Internal Revenues Code of 1986, as amended. Section 162(m) generally disallows
a public company's tax deduction for compensation to the chief executive
officer and four other most highly compensated executive officers in excess of
$1,000,000 in any tax year beginning on or after January 1, 1994. Compensation
that qualifies as "performance-based compensation" is excluded from the
$1,000,000 deductibility cap, and therefore remains fully deductible by the
company that pays it. The Company intends that options granted with an
exercise price at least equal to 100% of fair market value of the underlying
stock at the date of grant will qualify as such "performance-based
compensation," although other awards under the Option Plan may not so qualify.

CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS

ACQUISITIONS

Since the Company's formation in March 1997, it has acquired seven
accounting and finance professional staffing companies. All of the Acquired
Companies now operate as wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company. In certain
of these acquisitions persons who were previously shareholders of Acquired
Companies who are now executive officers, directors or holders of at least 5%
of the Company's outstanding Common Stock received consideration from the
Company in connection with the applicable acquisition. The following table
summarizes the total number of shares of Common Stock issued by the Company to
such persons in those acquisitions:

---------
Total............................................................ 7,017,172
=========
</TABLE>

These acquisitions are described in more detail below:

David C. Cooper & Associates. David C. Cooper received 1,573,714 shares of
Common Stock in connection with the mergers of wholly-owned subsidiaries of
the Company with and into David C. Cooper & Associates in May 1997.

Don Richard Associates of Washington. The following directors, executive
officers and/or 5% shareholders received shares of Common Stock in connection
with the merger of a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company with and into Don
Richard Associates of Washington in May 1997: Mark E. Strassman -- 671,143
shares; Beth Monroe-Chase -- 671,143 shares; Kevin W. Cole -- 447,428 shares;
and Rosemarie Mahoney -- 447,428 shares. Other Don Richard Associates of
Washington shareholders who are not directors, executive officers and/or 5%
shareholders received the balance of 298,284 shares issued by the Company. In
May 1997 the Company entered into a three-year employment agreement with Mr.
Strassman, a director of the Company, under which Mr. Strassman served as the
Company's President until October 1997 at an annual base salary of $200,000
(The employment agreement was otherwise substantially similar to the
employment agreements for the Named Executive Officers.) Mr. Strassman's
employment agreement was subsequently modified to provide that he would
consult with the Company's senior management and to provide that upon its
termination Mr. Strassman would continue to be paid the same compensation and
benefits through November 2000 instead of receiving a lump-sum severance
payment. In December 1997 it was determined that Mr. Strassman would no longer
play an active role in the Company's management. As a result, the Company will
record a nonrecurring expense of approximately $512,000 (the present value of
the payments due to Mr. Strassman under his employment agreement) in the
quarter ended December 31, 1997. See "Management's Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operation -- Recent Developments."

AcSys Resources. The following directors, executive officers and/or 5%
shareholders received shares of Common Stock in connection with the AcSys
Resources merger in September 1997: Edward S. Baumstein -- 993,521 shares;
Harry J. Sauer -- 993,521 shares; John R. Ficquette -- 609,637 shares; and
Louis Boohaker -- 609,637 shares. Certain of those shares are currently in
escrow to secure certain representations and warranties in the merger
agreement and are anticipated to be released on approximately March 1, 1998,
as follows: Mr. Baumstein -- 35,023 shares; Mr. Sauer -- 35,023 shares; Mr.
Ficquette -- 21,491 shares; and Mr. Boohaker -- 21,491 shares. Other AcSys
Resources shareholders who are not directors, executive officers and/or 5%
shareholders received the balance of 453,186 shares issued by the Company. In
addition, the Company owes Messrs. Baumstein and Sauer approximately $86,000
and $41,000, respectively, for compensation earned prior to the Company's
acquisition of AcSys Resources but not yet paid. These obligations are payable
on demand.

Albert Detorre, a former shareholder of AcSys Resources, has the contractual
right (the "Put Right") to require the Company to purchase 122,012 shares of
the Company's Common Stock that he received in connection with the AcSys
Resources acquisition (which includes 4,302 shares currently in escrow to
secure certain representations and warranties in the merger agreement and
which are anticipated to be released on

44
<PAGE>

approximately March 1, 1998) at a price equal to the "fair market value" of
such shares at the time Mr. Detorre exercises such right. In connection with
this Offering, Mr. Detorre has agreed to waive the Put Right. See Note 8 of
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

Prior to their acquisition by the Company, certain of the Acquired Companies
incurred indebtedness that was personally guaranteed by their shareholders. As
of December 31, 1997, the Company had borrowed an aggregate of approximately
$11.1 million under the Credit Facility to repay such indebtedness upon the
acquisition of such Acquired Companies. Obligations which are guaranteed by
certain of the Company's current shareholders having a principal balance of
approximately $1.1 million remain outstanding. See Note 3 of Notes to
Consolidated Financial Statements.

COMPANY POLICY

Following the closing of this Offering, all transactions with the Company's
shareholders, officers and directors or their affiliates, if any, will be
subject to the approval of a majority of the independent and disinterested
Outside Directors and will be conducted on terms no less favorable than could
be obtained from unaffiliated third parties on an arm's-length basis.

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

GENERAL

The authorized capital stock of the Company consists of 45,000,000 shares of
Common Stock without par value and 5,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock without
par value. The following description of the terms and provisions of the shares
of stock of the Company and certain other matters does not purport to be
complete and is subject to and qualified in its entirety by reference to the
applicable provisions of the GBCC and the Company's Articles of Incorporation
and Bylaws.

COMMON STOCK

Each holder of shares of Common Stock is entitled to one vote at
shareholders' meetings for each share held. The Company's Articles of
Incorporation will be amended upon the consummation of this Offering to
eliminate cumulative voting for the election of directors. Subject to the
prior rights of any series of Preferred Stock that may be issued, holders of
shares of Common Stock are entitled to receive, pro rata, such dividends as
may be declared by the Board of Directors out of funds legally available
therefor, and are also entitled to share, pro rata, in any other distributions
to the shareholders. The Company anticipates that for the foreseeable future
its earnings will be retained for the operation and expansion of its business
and that it will not pay cash dividends. See "Dividend Policy." There are no
redemption or sinking fund provisions applicable to the Common Stock. The
Credit Facility prohibits the payment of dividends without the lender's prior
consent. Holders of shares of Common Stock do not have any preemptive rights
or other rights to subscribe for additional shares. The outstanding shares of
Common Stock are, and the shares sold by the Company pursuant to this Offering
will be, when issued and paid for, fully paid and non-assessable.

PREFERRED STOCK

Under the Articles of Incorporation, the Board of Directors may issue,
without any further action by the shareholders, up to 5,000,000 shares of
Preferred Stock of one or more series, including any preferences, conversion
and other rights, voting powers, restrictions, limitations, qualifications and
terms and conditions of redemption as shall be set forth in resolutions
adopted by the Board of Directors. The designation of any Preferred Stock with
greater rights, privileges and preferences than those applicable to the Common
Stock may adversely affect the voting power, market price and other rights and
privileges of the Common Stock, and may hinder or delay the removal of
directors, attempted tender offers, proxy contests or takeovers, or other
attempts to change control of the Company, some or all of which may be desired
by holders of the Common Stock.

45
<PAGE>

Articles of amendment must be filed with the Georgia Secretary of State prior
to the issuance of any shares of Preferred Stock of the applicable series.

REMOVAL OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS; NO CLASSIFICATION OF THE BOARD

The entire Board of Directors or any individual director may be removed with
cause by the shareholders. Directors may not be removed without cause. The
Board of Directors is not divided into classes, and the terms of office of all
of the Directors expire at the next annual meeting of shareholders.

SPECIAL MEETINGS

Under the Bylaws, special meetings of the shareholders may be called by
shareholders only if such shareholders hold outstanding shares representing a
majority of all votes entitled to be cast on any issue proposed to be
considered at any such special meeting.

ADVANCE NOTICE OF NEW BUSINESS AND DIRECTOR NOMINATIONS

The Company's Bylaws provide that, with respect to an annual meeting of
shareholders, the proposal of business to be considered by shareholders and
nominations of persons for election to the Board of Directors may be made only
(i) by or at the direction of the Board of Directors, the Chairman of the
Board or the President, or (ii) by a shareholder who has complied with the
advance notice procedures set forth in the Company's Bylaws.

INDEMNIFICATION AND LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

The Articles of Incorporation eliminate, subject to certain exceptions, the
personal liability of a director to the Company or its shareholders for
monetary damage for breaches of such director's duty of care or other duties
as a director. The Articles do not provide for the elimination of or any
limitation on the personal liability of a director for (i) any appropriation,
in violation of the director's duties, of any business opportunity of the
Company, (ii) acts or omissions that involve intentional misconduct or a
knowing violation of law, (iii) unlawful corporate distributions, or (iv) any
transactions from which the director derived an improper personal benefit. The
Articles of Incorporation of the Company further provide that if the GBCC is
amended to authorize corporate action further eliminating or limiting the
personal liability of directors, then the liability of a director of the
Company shall be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by the
GBCC, as amended, without further action by the shareholders. These provisions
of the Articles of Incorporation will limit the remedies available to a
shareholder in the event of breaches of any director's duties to such
shareholder or the Company.

The Company's Bylaws require the Company to indemnify and hold harmless any
director who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party, to any
threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding whether civil,
criminal, administrative or investigative (including any action or suit by or
in the right of the Company) because he or she is or was a director of the
Company, against expenses (including, but not limited to, attorney's fees and
disbursements, court costs and expert witness fees), and against judgments,
fines, penalties, and amounts paid in settlement incurred by him or her in
connection with the action, suit or proceeding. Indemnification would be
disallowed under any circumstances where indemnification may not be authorized
by action of the Board of Directors, the shareholders or otherwise.

The Company has entered into separate indemnification agreements with each
of its directors and executive officers, whereby the Company agreed, among
other things, to provide for indemnification and advancement of expenses in a
manner and subject to terms and conditions similar to those set forth in the
Bylaws. These agreements also provide that the Company shall purchase and
maintain liability insurance for the benefit of its directors and executive
officers. These agreements may not be abrogated by action of the shareholders.
There is no pending litigation or proceeding involving a director, officer,
employee or other agent of the Company as to which indemnification is being
sought, nor is the Company aware of any pending or threatened litigation that
may result in claims for indemnification by any director, officer, employee or
other agent. The Company has also agreed to hold the shareholders harmless
from, against and in respect of federal income tax liabilities, including
interest and penalties imposed thereon (and any state and local income tax
liabilities as provided by applicable law), if any, incurred by the
shareholders as a result of a final determination of an adjustment (by reason
of an amended return, claim for refund, audit, judicial decision or otherwise)
to the taxable income of the Company for any period during the time the
Company was treated as an S Corporation for federal and state income tax
purposes which results in a decrease for any such period in the Company's
taxable income and a corresponding increase for any such period in the taxable
income of the shareholders. See "Prior S Corporation Status."

<PAGE>

REGISTRATION RIGHTS

The Company's current shareholders have the right in the event the Company
proposes to register under the Securities Act any Common Stock for its own
account or for the account of others, subject to certain exceptions, to
require the Company to include their shares in the registration, subject to
the right of any managing underwriter of any such offering to exclude some or
all of the shares for marketing reasons. In addition, through September 3,
1999, and upon the affirmative vote of the holders of at least 2,123,305
shares of Common Stock issued by the Company prior to the date of the
Offering, these shareholders have certain limited demand registration rights
to require the Company to register shares held by them, provided that the
aggregate estimated public offering price of all shares to be sold in the
offering is at least $5,000,000 and that any such demand must be accompanied
by either (i) the written consent of (a) David C. Cooper, (b) either Mark E.
Strassman or Beth Monroe-Chase and (c) either Edward S. Baumstein or Harry J.
Sauer to a registration pursuant to such request, or (ii) a written valuation
from a reputable investment banking firm that is a member of the New York
Stock Exchange which opines that the value of the Company in an offering made
pursuant to such request would be at least $100 million.

The Company generally is required to bear the expense relating to the sale
of the shareholders' securities under these registration rights, except for
underwriting discounts and commissions, and in certain cases the fees and
expenses of the shareholders' counsel and filing fees related to the
registration statement. The Company also is obligated to indemnify the
shareholders whose shares are included in any of the Company's registrations
against certain losses and liabilities, including liabilities under the
Securities Act and state securities laws. Each of the shareholders has waived
his or her right to include in this Offering shares which are not being sold
in this Offering.

ANTI-TAKEOVER PROVISIONS AND GEORGIA LAW

The Articles of Incorporation contain provisions that could have the effect
delaying, deferring or preventing an unsolicited change in control of the
Company.

Issuance of Preferred Stock. The Board of Directors has the power to issue
5,000,000 shares of Preferred Stock, in one or more classes or series and with
such rights and preferences as determined by the Board of Directors, all
without shareholder approval. Because the Board of Directors has the power to
establish the preferences and rights of each class or series of Preferred
Stock, it may afford the holders in any series of Preferred Stock preferences,
powers and rights, voting or otherwise, senior to the rights of holders of
Common Stock. The Board of Directors has no present plans to issue any shares
of Preferred Stock.

Georgia Anti-Takeover Statutes. The GBCC generally restricts a company from
entering into certain business combinations with an interested shareholder
(which is defined as any person or entity that is the beneficial owner of at
least 10% of the company's voting stock) or its affiliates for a period of
five years after the date on which such shareholder became an interested
shareholder, unless (i) the transaction is approved by the board of directors
of the company prior to the date such person became an interested shareholder,
(ii) the interested shareholder acquires 90% of the company's voting stock in
the same transaction in which it exceeds 10%, or (iii) subsequent to becoming
an interested shareholder, such shareholder acquires 90% of the company's
voting stock and the business combination is approved by the holders of a
majority of the voting stock entitled to vote thereon (the "Business
Combination Statute"). The GBCC provides that the Business Combination Statute
will not apply unless the bylaws of the corporation specifically provide that
the Business Combination Statute is applicable to the corporation. The Company
has not elected to be covered by such statute, but it could do so by action of
the Board of Directors at any time.

The GBCC also contains provisions that impose certain fair price and other
procedural requirements applicable to certain business combinations (the "Fair
Price Statute") with any person who owns 10% or more of the common stock (an
"interested shareholder"). These statutory requirements restrict business
combinations with, and accumulations of shares of voting stock of, certain
Georgia corporations. The Fair Price Statute will apply to a company only if
the company elects to be covered by the restrictions imposed by these
statutes. The Company has elected to be covered by the Fair Price Statute.

TRANSFER AGENT AND REGISTER

The transfer agent and registrar for the Common Stock is SunTrust Bank,
Atlanta, Georgia.

SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE

Upon completion of this Offering, the Company will have 10,923,220 shares of
Common Stock outstanding. The 2,750,000 shares sold in this Offering
(3,162,500 shares if the Underwriters over-allotment option is exercised in
full) will be freely tradable by persons other than affiliates of the Company,
without restriction. The remaining 8,173,220 shares of Common Stock will be
"restricted" securities within the meaning of Rule 144 under the Securities
Act and may not be sold in the absence of registration under the Securities
Act unless an exemption from registration is available, including exemptions
contained in Rule 144. Of this amount, 5,402,679 shares will be beneficially
owned by persons who are affiliates of the Company and, commencing 90 days
after the date of this Prospectus, would be eligible for public sale pursuant
to Rule 144, subject to the volume restrictions discussed below. The Company
and all current shareholders of the Company, however, have agreed not to sell
or otherwise dispose of any shares of Common Stock for a period of 180 days
after the date of this Prospectus without the prior written consent of the
J.C. Bradford & Co., except that the Company may issue shares of Common Stock
in connection with acquisitions or upon the exercise of options granted under
the Option Plan. See "Underwriting." These shareholders, however, have the
right in the event the Company proposes to register under the Securities Act
any Common Stock for its own account or for the account of others, subject to
certain exceptions, to require the Company to include their shares in the
registration, subject to the right of any managing underwriter of any such
offering to exclude some or all of the shares for marketing reasons. In
addition, through September 3, 1999, and upon the affirmative vote of the
holders of at least 2,123,305 shares of Common Stock issued by the Company
prior to the date of the Offering, these shareholders have certain limited
demand registration rights to require the Company to register shares held by
them, provided that the aggregate estimated public offering price of all
shares to be sold in the offering is at least $5,000,000 and that any such
demand must be accompanied by either (i) the written consent of (a) David C.
Cooper, (b) either Mark E. Strassman or Beth Monroe-Chase and (c) either
Edward S. Baumstein or Harry J. Sauer to a registration pursuant to such
request, or (ii) a written valuation from a reputable investment banking firm
that is a member of the New York Stock Exchange which opines that the value of
the Company in an offering made pursuant to such request would be at least
$100 million.

In general, under Rule 144 as currently in effect, a person (or persons
whose shares are aggregated) who has beneficially owned his or her shares of
Common Stock for at least one year (including the prior holding period of any
prior owner other than an affiliate) is entitled to sell within any three-
month period that number of shares which does not exceed the greater of 1% of
the outstanding shares of Common Stock and the average weekly trading volume
during the four calendar weeks preceding each such sale. Sales under Rule 144
are also subject to certain manner of sale provisions, notice requirements and
the availability of current public information about the Company. A person (or
persons whose shares are aggregated) who is not deemed an "affiliate" of the
Company for at least three months and who has beneficially owned shares for at
least two years (including the holding period of any prior owner other than an
affiliate) would be entitled to sell such shares under Rule 144 without regard
to the limitations described above. Rule 144 defines "affiliate" of a company
as a person that directly, or indirectly through one or more intermediaries,
controls, or is controlled by, or is under common control with, such company.
Affiliates of a company generally include its directors, officers and
principal shareholders.

The Company intends to grant under the Option Plan options to purchase up to
an aggregate of 2,000,000 shares of Common Stock. The Company intends to
register the shares issuable upon exercise of options granted under the Option
Plan and the 109,622 shares issuable upon exercise of options otherwise
outstanding. Upon such registration, such shares will be eligible for resale
in the public market without restrictions by persons who are not affiliates of
the Company, and to the extent they are held by affiliates, pursuant to Rule
144 without observance of the holding period requirements.

As soon as practical after the closing of this Offering, the Company intends
to register up to 2,000,000 shares of its Common Stock under the Securities
Act for use by the Company in connection with future

48
<PAGE>

acquisitions. These shares will generally be freely tradable after their
issuance, unless the sale thereof is contractually restricted. The
registration rights described above do not apply to the registration statement
related to these 2,000,000 shares.

Prior to this Offering, there has been no public market for the Common
Stock, and no prediction can be made as to the effect, if any, that the sale
of shares or the availability of shares for sale will have on the market price
prevailing from time to time. Nevertheless, sales of substantial amounts of
Common Stock in the public market could adversely affect prevailing market
prices and the ability of the Company to raise equity capital in the future.

UNDERWRITING

Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Underwriting Agreement,
the Company and the Selling Shareholders have agreed to sell to each of the
Underwriters listed below, and the Underwriters, for whom J.C. Bradford & Co.
and Janney Montgomery Scott Inc. are acting as representatives (the
"Representatives"), have severally agreed to purchase, the respective number
of shares of the Common Stock set forth opposite their names below:

The Underwriting Agreement provides that the obligations of the several
Underwriters thereunder are subject to approval of certain legal matters by
their counsel and to various other conditions. The Underwriters are obligated
to purchase all the shares of the Common Stock offered hereby, excluding
shares covered by the over-allotment option granted to the Underwriters, if
any such shares are purchased.

The Company and the Selling Shareholders have been advised by the
Representatives that the Underwriters propose to offer the Common Stock to the
public at the initial public offering price set forth on the cover page of
this Prospectus and to certain dealers at such price, less a concession of not
in excess of $ per share, and that the Underwriters and such dealers may
reallow a concession of not in excess of $ per share to other dealers. The
public offering price and concessions and reallowances to dealers may be
changed by the Representatives after the initial public offering.

The Company has granted to the Underwriters an option, exercisable within 30
days after the date of the initial public offering, to purchase up to an
additional 412,500 shares of Common Stock to cover over-allotments, at the
same price per share to be paid by the Underwriters for the other shares
offered hereby. If the Underwriters purchase any such additional shares
pursuant to this option, each of the Underwriters will be committed to
purchase such additional shares in approximately the same proportion as set
forth in the above table. The Underwriters may purchase such shares only to
cover over-allotments, if any, in connection with the offering.

The Company, the Selling Shareholders and the Underwriters have agreed to
indemnify, or to contribute to payments made by, each other against certain
civil liabilities, including certain civil liabilities under the Securities
Act.

Before the offering, there has been no public market for the Common Stock.
The initial public offering price for the Common Stock was determined by
negotiation among the Company, the Selling Shareholders and the
Representatives. The factors considered in determining the initial public
offering price include the history of and prospects for the business in which
the Company operates, past and present operations, revenues and earnings of

the Company and the trend of such earnings, the prospects for such earnings,
the general condition of the securities markets at the time of the offering
and the demand for similar securities of reasonably comparable companies.

In August 1997, AcSys Resources borrowed $650,000 from Janney Montgomery
Scott Inc. ("Janney") pursuant to a promissory note issued in conjunction with
AcSys Resources' acquisition of C.P.A. Staffing. The note carried an interest
rate of 8.5% and was paid in full in September 1997 upon the Company's
acquisition of AcSys Resources. In October 1996, Janney was engaged to serve
as a financial advisor to AcSys Resources. In consideration of its financial
advisory services, Janney earned $384,000 (including reimbursement of out-of-
pocket expenses) from the Company in connection with the acquisition by the
Company of AcSys Resources.

The Representatives have informed the Company and the Selling Shareholders
that the Underwriters do not intend to make sales to any accounts over which
they exercise discretionary authority.

The Company and all of its existing shareholders have agreed not to sell,
contract to sell or otherwise dispose of any shares of the Common Stock for a
period of 180 days after the date of this Prospectus without the prior written
consent of J.C. Bradford & Co. See "Shares Eligible for Future Sale."

In connection with the Offering, the Underwriters may purchase and sell the
Common Stock in the open market, which transactions may include over-allotment
and stabilizing transactions and purchases to cover syndicate short positions
created by the Underwriters in connection with the Offering. Stabilizing
transactions consist of certain bids or purchases for the purpose of
preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of the Common Stock, and
syndicate short positions involve the sale by the Underwriters of a greater
number of shares of Common Stock than they are required to purchase from the
Company in the Offering. The Underwriters also may impose a penalty bid,
whereby selling concessions allowed to syndicate members or other broker-
dealers in respect of the securities sold in the Offering for their account
may be reclaimed by the syndicate if such securities are repurchased by the
syndicate in stabilizing or covering transactions. These activities may
stabilize, maintain or otherwise affect the market price of the Common Stock,
which may be higher than the price that might otherwise prevail in the open
market; and these activities, if commenced, may be discontinued at any time.
These transactions may be effected on the Nasdaq National Market, in over-the-
counter market or otherwise.

The Underwriters have reserved up to 137,500 shares for sale at the initial
public offering price to certain consultants, employees, clients and other
persons associated with the Company. The number of shares of Common Stock
available for sale to the general public will be reduced to the extent any of
such persons purchase such reserved shares. Any reserved shares not so
purchased will be offered by the Underwriters to the general public on the
same basis as the other shares of Common Stock offered hereby.

LEGAL MATTERS

The validity of shares of Common Stock offered hereby is being passed upon
for the Company by Nelson Mullins Riley & Scarborough, L.L.P., Atlanta,
Georgia. Certain legal matters related to this Offering will be passed upon
for the Underwriters by Latham & Watkins, Washington, D.C.

BASIS OF PRESENTATION

(UNAUDITED)

ACSYS, Inc. (the "Company") was formed on March 10, 1997. On May 16, 1997,
the Company acquired all of the issued and outstanding common stock of
Infinity Enterprises, Inc.; David C. Cooper & Associates, Inc.; DCCA
Professional Temporaries, Inc.; and EKT, Inc. in exchange for shares of the
Company's Common Stock. The Company also acquired all of the issued and
outstanding common stock of Cama of Tampa, Inc., Rylan Forbes Consulting
Group, Inc. ("Rylan Forbes") and AcSys Resources, Inc. ("AcSys Resources"), on
May 19, 1997, July 25, 1997 and September 3, 1997, respectively, in the same
manner. The above acquisitions have been accounted for under the pooling of
interests method of accounting. The historical financial statements of the
Company have been restated to include the accounts and operating results of
the acquired companies for all dates and periods prior to the combinations,
except for Infinity Enterprises, Inc. and Cama of Tampa, Inc., which are
reflected only from their respective dates of formation of March 1, 1994 and
January 1, 1996, respectively.

Prior to the acquisition of AcSys Resources by the Company, AcSys Resources
acquired C.P.A. Staffing, Inc., C.P.A. Search, Inc. and Career Placement
Associates, Inc. (together, "C.P.A. Staffing") on August 12, 1997. The
acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method of accounting and is
reflected in the financial statements of the Company from the date of
acquisition. The accompanying pro forma financial statements give effect to
the acquisition of C.P.A. Staffing, the Offering and certain other pro forma
adjustments. See Notes to Pro Forma Consolidated Financial Statements.

The pro forma balance sheet gives effect to the Offering as if it had
occurred on September 30, 1997. The pro forma statements of operations give
effect to the acquisition of C.P.A. Staffing and the Offering as if they had
occurred on January 1, 1996. See Notes to Pro Forma Consolidated Financial
Statements.

The pro forma adjustments are based on estimates, available information and
certain assumptions that management deems appropriate. The pro forma financial
data do not purport to represent what the Company's financial position or
results of operations would actually have been if such transactions had
occurred on those dates and are not necessarily representative of the
Company's financial position or results of operations for any future period.

other financial statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in this
Prospectus. See "Risk Factors" included elsewhere herein.

5. PRO FORMA NET INCOME PER SHARE:

The shares used in computing pro forma net income per share are as follows:

<TABLE>
<S> <C>
Outstanding shares of Common Stock............................... 8,493,220
Common Stock equivalents for stock options granted............... 83,270
----------
Pro forma shares............................................... 8,576,490
Shares issued in the Offering necessary to pay expenses of the
Offering, repay indebtedness and pay distributions to certain
shareholders for income taxes on S corporation earnings......... 1,775,358
----------
Pro forma, as adjusted shares.................................. 10,351,848
==========
</TABLE>

The remaining shares to be sold in the Offering have been excluded. Options
that will be issued upon the Offering are also excluded.

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission,
common stock equivalents issued by the Company during the twelve months
preceding the Offering are included in the calculation of the shares used in
computing pro forma net income per share as if they were outstanding for all
periods presented using the treasury stock method. As of September 30, 1997,
there were 244,820 options issued and outstanding, all of which were issued
within 12 months preceding the offering.

The Company accounts for its option grants under APB Opinion No. 25,
"Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees" and includes a disclosure of the
fair value based method of accounting for stock-based compensation plans in
accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123,
"Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" (SFAS 123). Had the Company
recognized compensation cost for its stock option grants consistent with the
provisions of SFAS 123, and assuming the 950,000 options issued upon the
Offering are considered outstanding on January 1, 1997 with an exercise price
of $8.50 per share, the following pro forma as adjusted net income per share
would have resulted:

==========

==========
</TABLE>

The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using
the Black-Scholes option pricing model, with a risk-free interest rate of
6.5%, a volatility of 55%, no expected dividend yield and an expected life of
five years.

the results for the interim period. The results of operations for the nine
months ended September 30, 1997 are not necessarily indicative of the results
to be expected for the full year.

RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

The Company's future results of operations involve a number of risks and
uncertainties. Factors that could affect the Company's future operating
results and cause actual results to vary materially from expectations include,
but are not limited to, the Company's brief operating history, the competitive
market for temporary staffing services, dependence on availability of
qualified personnel, dependence on key personnel and risks associated with
opening new offices and offering new services.

Credit risk with respect to accounts receivable is dispersed due to the
nature of the business, the large number of customers, and the diversity of
industries serviced. At December 31, 1995 and 1996 and September 30, 1997, no
one customer represented greater than 10% of accounts receivable or greater
than 10% of revenues for the periods then ended.

PRINCIPLES OF CONSOLIDATION

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company
and its subsidiaries, all of which are wholly owned. All significant
intercompany transactions and accounts have been eliminated.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

The Company considers cash on deposit with financial institutions and all
highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months
or less to be cash equivalents. At the balance sheet dates, cash equivalents
were comprised primarily of investments in money market funds and certificates
of deposit.

RESTRICTED CASH

Restricted cash represents funds held by a financing institution as
collateral for a line of credit.

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

Property and equipment are stated at cost. Depreciation is provided on the
straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Leasehold
improvements are depreciated using the straight-line method over the shorter
of the estimated useful life of the asset or the remaining term of the lease.

acquisition on January 1, 1996 of common stock from the previous shareholders
of Cama of Tampa, Inc. and the acquisition on August 12, 1997 of C.P.A.
Staffing (see Note 9). Goodwill is being amortized on a straight-line basis
over 40 years.

The non-compete agreements were entered into on February 28, 1994 between
Infinity Enterprises, Inc. and its predecessor and were amortized on a
straight-line basis over 30 months.

Deferred financing costs are being amortized over the three-year term of the

LONG-LIVED ASSETS

The Company has adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS")
No. 121 "Accounting for Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived
Assets to Be Disposed Of." SFAS No. 121 requires that long-lived assets and
certain identifiable intangibles to be held and used by the Company be
reviewed for possible impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances
indicate that the carrying amount of an asset may not be recoverable. If
changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset that an
entity expects to hold and use may not be recoverable, future cash flows
expected to result from the use of the asset and its disposition must be
estimated. If the undiscounted value of the future cash flows is less than the
carrying amount of the asset, an impairment will be recognized. Management
believes that there has been no impairment of long-lived assets as of
September 30, 1997.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

The Company recognizes permanent placement revenues when the employment
offer and acceptance has occurred and the candidate's employment start date
has been established. Revenues from permanent placements are reported in the
statements of operations net of estimated adjustments due to placed candidates
that terminate employment within the Company's guarantee period (generally 90-
180 days). The net adjustment in each of the periods presented is immaterial.
The Company recognizes temporary staffing revenues when the services are
performed.

GROSS PROFIT

Gross profit is determined by deducting the direct cost of services for
temporary staffing revenues (temporary and contract personnel payroll, payroll
taxes and insurance costs) from total service revenues. The primary costs
associated with permanent placement revenues are sales commissions, which
increase in proportion with service revenue from permanent placements.
Consistent with industry practice, these costs are included in selling,
general and administrative expenses.

SUPPLEMENTAL CASH FLOW INFORMATION

For the years ended December 31, 1994, 1995 and 1996 and the nine months
ended September 30, 1996 and 1997, the Company paid interest of $764,768,
$919,280, $865,417, $646,962 and $601,989, respectively. The Company financed
equipment purchases under capital leases of $61,219 and $100,000 for the years
ended December 31, 1995 and 1996, respectively, and purchased Common Stock for
debt in the amount of $442,785 for the year ended December 31, 1996.

INCOME TAXES

The Company is an S corporation for federal and state income tax reporting
purposes. As such, all taxable income and loss of the Company is included in
the shareholders' tax returns. If the S corporation status had been terminated
as of September 30, 1997, the Company would have recorded a net deferred tax
liability of approximately $2,567,000 representing the tax effect of
differences in the bases in assets and liabilities for financial reporting and
income tax purposes. The differences primarily relate to the use of the cash
basis of accounting for tax purposes and the accrual basis of accounting for
financial reporting purposes, as well as differences in depreciation and
amortization methods. Pro forma income taxes represent the income tax expense
that would have resulted if the Company was a C corporation for the periods
presented.

PRO FORMA NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE

Pro forma net income (loss) per Common share was calculated by dividing pro
forma net income (loss) available to Common shareholders by the weighted
average number of shares outstanding of 7,235,204 for the year ended December
31, 1996 and 7,373,210 for the nine months ended September 30, 1997, which
include Common Stock equivalents of 83,270, unless otherwise anti-dilutive.
The average number of shares outstanding excludes the redeemable Common
shares, as the accretion on the redeemable Common Stock of $223,780 for the
year ended December 31, 1996 and $932,174 for the nine months ended September
30, 1997, is deducted in arriving at pro forma net income (loss) available to
Common shareholders. The average number of shares outstanding has been
retroactively restated to include the shares issued for the business
combinations accounted for as poolings of interests.

PERVASIVENESS OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

Management believes that the carrying amounts of certain financial
instruments, including cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable,
accounts payable and accrued expenses approximate their fair values as of each
balance sheet date given the relatively short maturity of these instruments.
The fair values of long-term debt instruments have been estimated by
discounting future cash flows based on the current interest rate environment
and remaining term to maturity.

RECENTLY ISSUED ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the "FASB")
issued Statement No. 128, "Earnings per share." This statement establishes
standards for computing and presenting earnings per share and is effective for
financial statements issued for periods ending after December 15, 1997.
Earlier application of this statement is not permitted and, upon adoption,
requires restatement (as applicable) of all prior-period earnings per share
data presented. Management believes that the implementation of this standard
will not have a material effect on the Company's calculation of earnings per
share.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED)

On May 16, 1997, the Company entered into an agreement with a bank which
provides for a $15,000,000 Revolving Credit Facility (the "Credit Facility")
to be repaid on May 31, 2000. The Company can draw on the Credit Facility in
increments of $250,000 or more. The Company can elect at the time of its draws
to pay interest at either: (A) the greater of (i) the bank's prime rate or
(ii) the federal funds rate plus 0.5%, plus a margin which ranges up to 0.75%;
or (B) at LIBOR plus a margin, which ranges from 1.25% to 2.50%. Borrowings
under the Credit Facility are collateralized by all of the assets of the
Company and a pledge of all of the stock of its subsidiaries. The Credit
Facility also contains various financial and non-financial covenants. At
September 30, 1997, the Company had outstanding borrowings under the Credit
Facility of $11,050,000 and for the nine months ended September 30, 1997
incurred $237,461 of interest expense under the Credit Facility.

The Company has discounted the non-compete obligations and certain other
notes payable to reflect their fair market value based on average borrowing
rates available to the Company. The rate used to determine the discount was
approximately 9.25%. The discount is being amortized over the term of the
notes using the effective interest rate method. Amortization expense included
in interest expense in the accompanying statements of operations for the years
ended December 31, 1994, 1995 and 1996, and for the nine months ended
September 30, 1996 and 1997 was $57,000, $73,000, $71,000, $53,000 and
$58,000, respectively.

The obligations under the non-compete agreements with former shareholders
are secured by certain property and equipment and Common Stock of the Company,
and are personally guaranteed by certain shareholders of the Company.

Annual maturities of long-term debt as of December 31, 1996 are as follows:

In 1995 and 1996, the Company entered into capital leases for equipment with
terms ranging from two to three years. The implicit interest rates under these

The Company had four separate line of credit agreements with different
banks, which provided for maximum borrowings of $1,200,000. These lines bore
interest at rates between 9.25% and 10.0% as of December 31, 1996. At December
31, 1995 and 1996, the Company had outstanding borrowings under these lines of
$550,000 and $925,000, respectively. Interest expense under these lines was
$66,700, $108,000 and $48,300 for the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1996
and for the nine months ended September 30, 1997, respectively. Three of these
lines were repaid in May 1997 and the fourth line was repaid in September 1997
with borrowings under the Credit Facility.

4. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:

In connection with the business combinations, the Company entered into
employment agreements with certain shareholders who are also officers or
employees of the Company. The employment agreements provide for a guaranteed
base salary over a three-year period and a discretionary bonus to be
determined by the Board of Directors. For the years ending December 31, 1997,
1998, 1999 and 2000, the Company is obligated to pay $1,352,500, $2,575,000,
$2,575,000, and $1,222,500, respectively, in salaries under these agreements.
The agreements contain non-compete covenants and can be terminated based on
certain events, as defined. In addition, the agreements provide for lump sum
payments equal to three times current salary upon certain triggering events
such as a change in control, among other events.

The Company leases office space under noncancellable operating leases.
Certain leases require additional payments for taxes and operating expenses
and provide for renewal options. Future minimum payments required under
operating leases that have an initial or remaining noncancellable lease term
in excess of one year at December 31, 1996 are as follows:

On November 13, 1997, a lawsuit was filed against the Company, Cama of
Tampa, Inc. ("Cama") and the former owner of Cama, Stephen S. Tutwiler. The
lawsuit alleges that the plaintiff and Mr. Tutwiler agreed to form a
corporation to provide certain staffing services; that such services were
instead provided through a division of Cama; and that the plaintiff was
entitled to a portion of the stock of Cama and thus to a portion of the shares
of Common Stock issued to Mr. Tutwiler when it acquired Cama. The plaintiff
asserts numerous claims, including fraud, civil conspiracy and alleged
misstatements and omissions regarding the Company's ownership of Cama in a
prospectus filed by the Company. The plaintiff seeks to recover $27,000
allegedly due to the plaintiff, his alleged portion of Mr. Tutwiler's shares
of Common Stock, and compensatory and other damages. The plaintiff also seeks
an accounting and employment by the Company. The Company intends to vigorously
defend the plaintiff's allegations. An adverse result could have a material
effect on the Company and result in a charge to the statement of operations in
the period in which the litigation is resolved. There is no other pending
litigation which the Company considers material.

$919,732, $714,372 and $729,074, respectively.

5. TERMINATION OF FRANCHISE AGREEMENTS:

Prior to May 31, 1994, AcSys Resources operated as a franchisee under a
franchise agreement, which provided for various marketing and royalty payments
to the franchisor based on revenues. Effective May 31, 1994, AcSys Resources
and the franchisor terminated the agreement. The termination agreement
provided for payments to the franchisor of $360,000, which were made and
recorded as an expense in 1994. In addition, AcSys Resources was required to
pay to the franchisor 1% of revenues for the period June 1, 1994 through May
31, 1995, and 2% of revenues for the period June 1, 1995 through May 31, 1996,
resulting in an expense of $201,000 in 1994, $166,000 in 1995, and $108,000 in
1996. In May 1997, Cama of Tampa, Inc. terminated its franchise agreement and
made a one-time payment to the franchisor of $170,000, which was recorded as
an expense for the nine months ended September 30, 1997. Costs under the
franchise termination agreements and

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED)

severance expense (see Note 8) have been recorded as a separate line item in
the accompanying consolidated statements of operations.

6. RETIREMENT SAVINGS PLAN:

AcSys Resources has a defined contribution retirement plan for the benefit
of all eligible employees. The plan qualifies under Section 401(k) of the
Internal Revenue Code and allows for eligible employees to contribute to the
plan up to 15% of their pretax compensation, subject to the maximum
contributions allowed by the Internal Revenue Code. The plan provides for
discretionary matching contributions by AcSys Resources based on a percentage
of the participant's contributions to the plan and a discretionary profit
sharing contribution based on employee compensation. AcSys Resources made
$17,911, $23,083 and $30,449 in 1994, 1995 and 1996, respectively, in matching
contributions and no discretionary contributions were made to the plan.

7. RELATED PARTIES:

At December 31, 1995 and 1996, AcSys Resources had loans due from its
shareholders of $69,720 and $61,567, respectively, at an interest rate of 5%.
The loans are due on demand. These loans are included in other assets in the
accompanying consolidated balance sheets. In addition, AcSys Resources owes
three shareholders a total of $197,638 at September 30, 1997 for compensation
earned but not paid.

8. CAPITAL TRANSACTIONS:

REDEMPTION AND SEVERANCE AGREEMENTS

In September 1996, AcSys Resources entered into a Stock Redemption Agreement
with one of its shareholders. Under this agreement, AcSys Resources
repurchased a portion of the shares owned by this shareholder for $458,500.
The shareholder can require AcSys Resources to repurchase his remaining
122,012 shares of Common Stock at a price based on an earnings formula defined
in the Stock Redemption Agreement. In connection with the Stock Redemption
Agreement, AcSys Resources and the shareholder entered into a severance
agreement. Under this agreement, the shareholder is to receive $458,500, which
was charged to expense in 1996. An initial payment of $200,000 was made to the
shareholder upon execution of the agreements, with the remaining $717,000
payable in equal semi-monthly installments beginning in January 1997. In
September 1997, the remaining balance was repaid by the Company.

STOCK OPTION PLAN

In May 1997, the Company established the 1997 Stock Option Plan (the "Option
Plan"). The maximum number of shares of Common Stock that currently may be
subject to outstanding options, determined immediately after the grant of any
option, is 2,000,000 shares. The Option Plan provides that the number of
shares of Common Stock available for issuance thereunder shall be
automatically increased on the first trading day of each calendar year by the
lesser of (i) three percent of the number of shares outstanding on the
preceding trading day or (ii) 500,000 shares. Shares of Common Stock which are
attributable to awards which have expired, terminated or been canceled or
forfeited during any calendar year are available for issuance or use in
connection with future awards during such calendar year.

In January 1997, AcSys Resources issued stock options under the AcSys
Resources 1996 Equity Compensation Plan (the "AcSys Resources Plan") to its
officers and employees. In September 1997, the AcSys Resources Plan stock
options were exchanged for 111,687 stock options at an exercise price of $2.66
per share. The exchange ratio was based on the exchange ratio used to effect
the merger between AcSys Resources and the Company on September 3, 1997. In
connection with this merger, these options became fully vested in accordance

F-21
<PAGE>

ACSYS, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS--(CONTINUED)

with the change of control provision included in the AcSys Resources Plan. In
May 1997, the Company issued 97,698 non-qualified stock options and 37,500
qualified stock options to an officer of the Company at an exercise price of
$8.00 per share.

As of September 30, 1997, there were 244,820 stock options outstanding and
exercisable under the Option Plan and the AcSys Resources Plan with a weighted
average exercise price of $5.61 per share.

The Company accounts for its option plan under APB Opinion No. 25,
"Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees." In 1995, the Financial Accounting
Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 123,
"Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation" (SFAS 123). SFAS 123 established a
fair value based method of accounting for stock-based compensation plans. SFAS
123 requires that an employer's financial statements include certain
disclosures about stock-based employee compensation arrangements regardless of
the method used to account for the plan. Had the Company recognized
compensation cost for its stock option plans consistent with the provisions of
SFAS 123, the following pro forma net loss per Common share for the nine
months ended September 30, 1997 would have resulted:

The fair value of each option grant is estimated on the date of grant using
the Black-Scholes option pricing model, with a risk-free interest rate of
6.5%, no expected dividend yield and an expected life of five years. As of
September 30, 1997, the weighted average fair value of the options outstanding
was $1.56 per option.

9. ACQUISITION OF C.P.A. STAFFING:

AcSys Resources acquired C.P.A. Staffing, Inc., C.P.A. Search, Inc. and
Career Placement Associates, Inc. (together, "C.P.A. Staffing") on August 12,
1997. The acquisition was accounted for under the purchase method of
accounting. The total purchase price was approximately $9,700,000 and
consisted of cash of $1,900,000, 1,219,274 shares of Common Stock with a fair
market value of $7,700,000 and transaction costs of $144,000. The purchase
price was allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The
$8,600,000 excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair market value
of the net assets acquired was recorded as goodwill and is being amortized on
a straight-line basis over 40 years.

The following table summarizes the unaudited pro forma results of operations
of the Company for the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1996 and the nine
months ended September 30, 1997, assuming that the acquisition of C.P.A.
Staffing had occurred on January 1, 1995:

NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS:

C.P.A. Staffing, Inc., C.P.A. Search, Inc. and Career Placement Associates,
Inc. (together, the "Company"), specialize in the placement of temporary and
permanent employees in the accounting, banking, finance and information
technology fields. The Company's primary market is Atlanta, Georgia.

On August 12, 1997, an agreement and plan of merger was entered into among
AcSys Resources, Inc. ("AcSys"), the Company and the shareholders of the
Company, whereby AcSys agreed to purchase all of the outstanding common stock
of the Company for approximately $9,600,000.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

PRINCIPLES OF COMBINATION

The financial statements reflect the combined financial position, results of
operations and cash flows of C.P.A. Staffing, Inc., C.P.A. Search, Inc. and
Career Placement Associates, Inc. The companies are engaged in related
operations and are owned, in the same percentages, by the same shareholders.
The financial statements reflect the elimination of all significant
intercompany accounts and transactions.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

The Company recognizes permanent placement revenues when the employment
offer and acceptance has occurred and the candidate's employment start date
has been established. Revenue from permanent placements is reported in the
combined statements of operations net of estimated adjustments due to placed
candidates that terminate employment within the Company's guarantee period
(generally 90 days). The net adjustment in each of the periods presented is
immaterial. The Company recognizes temporary staffing revenues when the
services are performed.

GROSS PROFIT

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

The Company considers cash on deposit with financial institutions and all
highly liquid investments purchased with an original maturity of three months
or less to be cash equivalents. At December 31, 1996 and August 12, 1997, cash
equivalents consisted primarily of investments in money market funds.

PROPERTY AND EQUIPMENT

Property and equipment is stated at cost. Depreciation is provided on the
straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, which are
generally five to seven years for furniture, computer and office equipment.

INCOME TAXES

The Company is an S corporation and, as such, the Company is not subject to
federal and state income taxes and all taxable income and loss of the Company
is included in the shareholders' tax returns.

F-28
<PAGE>

C.P.A. STAFFING, INC., C.P.A. SEARCH, INC.
AND CAREER PLACEMENT ASSOCIATES, INC.

NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

In the event of the termination of the S corporation status, the Company
would be required to record a deferred tax liability of approximately $367,000
as of August 12, 1997, in accordance with the provisions of Financial
Accounting Standards No. 109, "Accounting for Income Taxes."

PERVASIVENESS OF ESTIMATES

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
reported period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

4. LINE OF CREDIT:

The Company has a revolving line of credit with a bank, which provides for
maximum borrowings of $250,000. Borrowings under the line are limited to 75%
of accounts receivable, as defined. The line is collateralized by
substantially all of the assets of the Company and is personally guaranteed by
the Company's shareholders. Interest on borrowings is payable monthly and
accrues at prime plus 1.50%. The line of credit expires in April 1998. At
December 31, 1996 and August 12, 1997, there were no borrowings on the line.
The maximum borrowed under the line in 1996 was $30,000 and the average amount
outstanding was approximately $4,000. The maximum borrowed under the line
during the period ended August 12, 1997 was $150,000 and the average amount
outstanding during this period was approximately $8,500. Interest expense for
the year ended December 31, 1996 and for the period ended August 12, 1997 was
not material.

5. MAJOR CUSTOMERS AND CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT:

For the year ended December 31, 1996, the Company had three customers which
accounted for 22%, 17% and 11% of total service revenues. For the period from
January 1, 1997 to August 12, 1997, the same three customers accounted for
17%, 17% and 11% of revenues. At December 31, 1996, the Company had two
customers which accounted for 31% and 12% of accounts receivable. At August
12, 1997, the Company had two customers which accounted for 24% and 13% of
accounts receivable.

6. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:

The Company leases office space and equipment under operating leases through
October 31, 2001. Rent expense, was approximately $32,000 and $34,000, for the
year ended December 31, 1996 and for the period from January 1, 1997 to August
12, 1997, respectively. Future minimum lease payments under the Company's
operating leases for the years ended December 31 are as follows:

The Company is party to various claims and other matters arising in the
normal course of business. In the opinion of management, the outcome of these
matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial
position or results of operations.

7. EMPLOYEE AGREEMENT:

In July 1996, the Company entered into an agreement with an employee which
provides for a cash payment in the event of the sale of the Company, as
defined. The cash payment is based on performance criteria and is limited to
10% of the staffing company's sale price, less any amount paid to the employee
under the termination clause of the agreement. As a result of the sale of the
Company's common stock on August 12, 1997 (see Note 1), the Company issued a
$280,000 demand note and a $422,465 note, payable over seven years with 8%
interest, as full consideration under this agreement. Both notes were assumed
by the shareholders of the Company. This assumption was recorded as a capital
contribution by the shareholders in the accompanying financial statements.

ITEM 14. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

The Company's Articles of Incorporation eliminate, subject to certain
limited exceptions, the personal liability of a director to the Company or its
shareholders for monetary damage for any breach of duty as a director. There
is no elimination of liability for (i) a breach of duty involving
appropriation of a business opportunity of the Company; (ii) an act or
omission which involves intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law;
(iii) any transaction from which the director derives an improper personal
benefit; or (iv) as to any payments of a dividend or any other type of
distribution that is illegal under Section 14-2-832 of the Georgia Business
Corporation Code (the "GBCC"). In addition, if at any time the GBCC is amended
to authorize further elimination or limitation of the personal liability of a
director, then the liability of each director of the Company shall be
eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by such provisions, as
so amended, without further action by the shareholders, unless the provisions
of the GBCC require such action. The provision does not limit the right of the
Company or its shareholders to seek injunctive or other equitable relief not
involving payments in the nature of monetary damages.

The Company's bylaws contain certain provisions which provide
indemnification to directors of the Company that is broader than the
protection expressly mandated in Sections 14-2-852 and 14-2-857 of the GBCC.
To the extent that a director or officer of the Company has been successful,
on the merits or otherwise, in the defense of any action or proceeding brought
by reason of the fact that such person was a director or officer of the
Company, Sections 14-2-852 and 14-2-857 of the GBCC would require the Company
to indemnify such persons against expenses (including attorney's fees)
actually and reasonably incurred in connection therewith. The GBCC expressly
allows the Company to provide for greater indemnification rights to its
officers and directors, subject to shareholder approval.

The indemnification provisions in the Company's bylaws require the Company
to indemnify and hold harmless any director who was or is a party or is
threatened to be made a party, to any threatened, pending or completed action,
suit or proceeding whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative
(including any action or suit by or in the right of the Company) because he or
she is or was a director of the Company, against expenses (including, but not
limited to, attorney's fees and disbursements, court costs and expert witness
fees), and against judgments, fines, penalties, and amounts paid in settlement
incurred by him or her in connection with the action, suit or proceeding.
Indemnification would be disallowed under any circumstances where
indemnification may not be authorized by action of the Board of Directors, the
shareholders or otherwise. The Board of Directors of

II-1
<PAGE>

the Company also has the authority to extend to officers, employees and agents
the same indemnification rights held by directors, subject to all the
accompanying conditions and obligations. Indemnified persons would also be
entitled to have the Company advance expenses prior to the final disposition
of the proceeding. If it is ultimately determined that they are not entitled
to indemnification, however, such amounts would be repaid. Insofar as
indemnification for liability arising under the Securities Act may be
permitted to officers and directors of the Company pursuant to the foregoing
provisions, the Company has been informed that in the opinion of the
Securities and Exchange Commission, such indemnification is against public
policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable.

The Company has entered into separate indemnification agreements with each
of its directors and executive officers, whereby the Company agreed, among
other things, to provide for indemnification and advancement of expenses in a
manner and subject to terms and conditions similar to those set forth in the
Bylaws. These agreements also provide that the Company shall purchase and
maintain liability insurance for the benefit of its directors and exeuctive
officers. These agreements may not be abrogated by action of the shareholders.
There is no pending litigation or proceeding involving a director, officer,
employee or other agent of the Company as to which indemnification is being
sought, nor is the Company aware of any pending or threatened litigation that
may result in claims for indemnification by any director, officer, employee or
other agent. The Company has also agreed to hold the shareholders harmless
from, against and in respect of federal income tax liabilities, including
interest and penalties imposed thereon (and any state and local income tax
liabilities as provided by applicable law), if any, incurred by the
shareholders as a result of a final determination of an adjustment (by reason
of an amended return, claim for refund, audit, judicial decision or otherwise)
to the taxable income of the Company for any period which results in a
decrease for any period in the Company's taxable income and a corresponding
increase for any period in the taxable income of the shareholders.

sold by the Company within the past three years except for the following:

Schedule II: Valuation and Qualifying Accounts

ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS.

The Company hereby undertakes to provide to the underwriter at the closing
specified in the underwriting agreement, certificates in such denominations
and registered in such names as required by the underwriter to permit prompt
delivery to each purchaser.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act
of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the
Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Company has
been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission
such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is,
therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification
against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Company of expenses
incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the
registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is
asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with
the securities being registered, the Company will, unless in the opinion of
its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a
court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by
it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by
the final adjudication of such issue.

The Company hereby undertakes that:

(1) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of
1933, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of
this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a
form of prospectus filed by the Company pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4),
or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this
registration statement as of the time it was declared effective.

(2) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act
of 1933, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus
shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the
securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that
time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

S CORPORATION TAX ALLOCATION AND
INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT

This S Corporation Tax Allocation and Indemnification Agreement (this
"Agreement") is made by and between ACSYS, Inc., a Georgia corporation (the
"Company"), the shareholders of the Company listed on the signature page hereto
(each individually, a "Shareholder" and collectively, the "Shareholders"), and
the following wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Company: David C. Cooper &
Associates, Inc., DCCA Professional Temporaries, Inc., Infinity Enterprises,
Inc., Cama of Tampa, Inc., Rylan Forbes Consulting Group, Inc., and AcSys
Resources, Inc. (each a "Subsidiary" and collectively, the "Subsidiaries"). The
term "ACSYS" shall mean the Company and the Subsidiaries.

WHEREAS, the Company is an S corporation, within the meaning of section
1361 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended ("Code");

WHEREAS, each Subsidiary is a qualified subchapter S subsidiary, within
the meaning of section 1361(b)(3) of the Code;

WHEREAS, the Company and certain of the Shareholders intend to enter
into an underwriting agreement to sell common stock of the Company in an initial
public offering (the "Public Offering");

WHEREAS, the Shareholders are currently the only shareholders of the
Company and will continue to be so until the Closing; and

WHEREAS, in connection with the Public Offering, and in order to induce
the investment by the public in the Company, the Company and the Shareholders
desire to provide for an S corporation termination, tax allocation, distribution
and indemnification agreement in connection with tax periods prior to and
following the Termination Date (as defined below), as well as the termination of
ACSYS as an S corporation;

NOW, THEREFORE, for mutual consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of
which are hereby acknowledged, ACSYS and the Shareholders do hereby covenant and
agree as follows:

ARTICLE I
DEFINITIONS

The following terms, as used herein, have the following meanings:

"Closing" shall mean the closing and completion of the offering by the
Company of shares of its stock, as described in the Registration Statement on
Form S-1 (the "Registration Statement"), initially filed by the Company with the
Securities and Exchange Commission on October 22, 1997, as amended.

"Code" shall mean the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
<PAGE>

"C Short Year" shall have the meaning set forth in section 1362(e)(1)(B)
of the Code.

"S corporation" shall have the meaning set forth in section 1361 of the
Code.

"S corporation Taxable Income" shall mean, for periods beginning on or
after the date ACSYS became an S corporation and ending with the S Short Year,
the sum of (i) ACSYS' items of separately stated income and gain (within the
meaning of section 1366(a)(1)(A) of the Code) reduced, to the extent applicable,
by ACSYS' separately stated items of deduction and loss (within the meaning of
section 1366(a)(1)(A) of the Code) and (ii) ACSYS' nonseparately computed net
income (within the meaning of section 1366(a)(1)(B) of the Code).

"S Short Year" shall have the meaning set forth in section 1362(e)(1)(A)
of the Code.

"Termination Date" shall mean the date on which ACSYS' status as an S
corporation is terminated by reason of revocation of the election for ACSYS to
be an S corporation pursuant to section 1362(d)(1) of the Code, which date shall
be not less than two days prior to the date of the Closing.

ARTICLE II
THE TERMINATION; TERMINATION DATE

2.1 Termination of S Corporation Status. The Company represents that it
-----------------------------------
terminated its status as an S corporation pursuant to an election, as permitted
pursuant to section 1362(d)(1) of the Code, on the date of pricing of the shares
of common stock to be offered and sold in the Public Offering (the "Termination
Date").

2.2 Short Taxable Years. The parties acknowledge that the taxable year
-------------------
in which the S corporation status of ACSYS is terminated will be an S
Termination Year for tax purposes, as defined in section 1362(e)(4) of the Code.
Pursuant to section 1362(e)(1) of the Code, the S Termination Year of ACSYS
shall be divided into two short taxable years: an "S Short Year" and a "C Short
Year." As defined in section 1362(e)(1)(A) of the Code, the S Short Year shall
be that portion of ACSYS' S Termination Year ending on the day immediately
preceding the Termination Date. Pursuant to section 1362(e)(1)(B) of the Code,
that portion of the S Termination Year beginning on the Termination Date and
ending on the last day of the taxable year shall be the C Short Year of ACSYS.

ARTICLE III
ALLOCATION OF INCOME

ACSYS and the Shareholders agree that for federal tax purposes
(including for purposes of determining ACSYS' S corporation Taxable Income for
its fiscal year ending December 31, 1998) ACSYS shall allocate its items of
income, gain, loss, deduction and credit for its fiscal year ending December 31,
1998 between the S Short Year and the C Short Year in accordance with normal tax
accounting rules (the "closing of the books method"), as permitted by section
1362(e)(3) of the Code. ACSYS will make the election permitted by section
1362(e)(3) in a timely manner. The Shareholders agree to consent to such
election and to provide ACSYS with the statement of consent of all Shareholders
described in section 1.1362-6(a)(5) and section 1.1362-6(b) of the Treasury
Regulations. ACSYS and the Shareholders agree to make, and to provide such
information and obtain such

2
<PAGE>

consents as are necessary to make, any comparable election required under
applicable state and local income tax laws.

ARTICLE IV
TAXES

4.1 Liability for Taxes Incurred During the S Short Year and for Tax
----------------------------------------------------------------
Periods Ending Prior to the Termination Date. The Shareholders, severally,
- --------------------------------------------
represent, covenant and agree that: (i) the Shareholders have duly included, or
will duly include, in their own federal income tax returns (and in their state
and local income tax returns, as permitted by applicable law) all items of
income, gain, loss, deduction, or credit attributable to the S Short Year of
ACSYS or to any prior period (or that portion of any period) during which ACSYS
was an S corporation as required by applicable law; (ii) such returns have
included and shall include their allocable share of S corporation Taxable Income
of ACSYS from all sources through and including the close of business on the
last day of the S Short Year of ACSYS; and (iii) the Shareholders have timely
paid and shall timely pay any and all taxes they are required to pay, as a
result of being a shareholder of ACSYS, for all taxable periods (or that portion
of any period) during which ACSYS was an S corporation.

4.2 Shareholder Indemnification for Tax Liabilities. The Shareholders,
-----------------------------------------------
severally (according to the percentage of the outstanding shares of the
Company's common stock owned by each Shareholder on the last day of any
applicable period to which a liability described below relates) hereby indemnify
and hold ACSYS harmless from, against and in respect of any federal, state and
local income tax liabilities of ACSYS, including interest and penalties imposed
thereon (i) which are attributable to any taxable period (or portion thereof)
ending on or prior to the Termination Date, or (ii) which are incurred by ACSYS
as a result of a final determination of an adjustment (by reason of an amended
return, claim for refund, audit, judicial decision or otherwise) to the taxable
income of the Shareholders for any period (including, without limitation, the S
Short Year) which (in the case of this clause (ii)) results in a decrease for
any period in the Shareholders' taxable income and a corresponding increase for
any period in the taxable income of ACSYS.

4.3 ACSYS' Indemnification for Tax Liabilities. ACSYS hereby
------------------------------------------
indemnifies and agrees to hold the Shareholders harmless from, against and in
respect of federal, state and local income tax liabilities, including interest
and penalties imposed thereon, if any, incurred by the Shareholders as a result
of a final determination of an adjustment (by reasons of an amended return,
claim for refund, audit, judicial decision or otherwise) to the taxable income
of ACSYS for any period which results in a decrease for any period beginning
after the Termination Date in ACSYS' taxable income and a corresponding increase
for any period ending on or prior to the Termination Date in the taxable income
of the Shareholders.

4.4 Payments. The Shareholders or ACSYS, as the case may be, shall make
--------
any payment required under Section 4.2 or Section 4.3 of this Agreement within
14 days after receipt of notice from the other party that a final determination
has occurred and a payment is due by such party to the appropriate taxing
authority.

3
<PAGE>

4.5 Refunds. If ACSYS receives a refund of any income tax (including
-------
penalties and interest) as to which it has previously been indemnified by the
Shareholders, it shall pay an amount equal to such refund, within 14 days after
receipt thereof, to the Shareholders in accordance with the percentage of the
outstanding shares of ACSYS common stock owned by each such Shareholder on the
last day of any applicable period to which the refund relates. If the
Shareholders receive a refund of any income tax (including penalties and
interest) as to which they have previously been indemnified by ACSYS, they
shall, within 14 days after receipt thereof, remit an amount equal to such
refund to ACSYS.

4.6 Notice and Control of Proceedings. Each of ACSYS and the
---------------------------------
Shareholders agrees that (i) within 10 days of receiving written notice of any
income tax examinations, claims, settlements, proposed adjustments or related
matters that may affect in any way the income tax liability of a party under
this Agreement, such person shall provide written notice thereof to such other
party, and (ii) the party or parties who would be responsible for the payment of
the applicable taxes if the matter in question were to be resolved adversely
shall be entitled, in his or its reasonable discretion and at his or its sole
expense, to handle, control and compromise or settle the defense thereof, so
long as such party or parties are acting diligently and in good faith. Such
party or parties shall keep the other party(ies) apprised of the status thereof
and shall consult with such other party(ies) concerning the conduct of the
defense thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, the party handling such
matters shall not compromise or settle any matter which could adversely affect
the tax liability of another party without such other party's prior written
consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. The parties hereto shall
execute all instruments required to effectuate the provisions of this Section
4.6.

4.7 Cooperation. The parties will make available to one another, as
-----------
reasonably requested, and to any taxing authority, all information, records or
documents relating to the liability for taxes covered by this Agreement and will
preserve any such information, records or documents until the expiration of the
applicable statute of limitations or extensions thereof. The party requesting
such information shall reimburse the other party for all reasonable out-of-
pocket costs incurred in producing such information.

4.8 Costs. Except as otherwise provided herein, each party shall bear
-----
his or its own costs in administering this Agreement.

ARTICLE V
TAX DISTRIBUTIONS

5.1 Disproportionate Tax Liability. ACSYS and the Shareholders
------------------------------
acknowledge that Shareholders became Shareholders at different times during 1997
due to the timing of the Company's various 1997 acquisitions, and that the
Shareholders' individual tax liabilities for 1997 are accordingly not
proportionate to the percentage of the outstanding shares of ACSYS common stock
owned by each such Shareholder on the last day of 1997 and on the Termination
Date.

5.2 Calculation and Payment of Tax Distributions. ACSYS and the
--------------------------------------------
Shareholders acknowledge and agree that each of them understood, as a condition
of the Public Offering and as described in the Registration Statement, that

4
<PAGE>

ACSYS would distribute to each Shareholder an amount which approximates such
Shareholder's unpaid federal, state and local taxes such Shareholder will be
required to pay, as a result of being a shareholder of ACSYS, for all taxable
periods (or that portion of any period) during which ACSYS was an S corporation
(the "Distributions"). ACSYS and the Shareholders further acknowledge and agree
that ACSYS shall calculate and pay the Distributions in the following manner:
ACSYS shall first allocate ACSYS' S corporation Taxable Income to each
Shareholder for the S Short Year and all applicable prior periods as prescribed
by section 1377(a)(1) of the Code. Pursuant to section 1377(a)(1) of the Code,
each Shareholder will take into account that Shareholder's "pro rata share" of
corporate items. Section 1377(a)(1) of the Code defines a "pro rata share" as
determined (i) by dividing an item into equal portions for each day in the
taxable year and (ii) by dividing each day's portion among the shares
outstanding on that day. ACSYS shall then determine the amount of the
Distribution for each Shareholder by multiplying (x) the amount of ACSYS' S
corporation Taxable Income allocated to each Shareholder for the S Short Year
and all applicable prior periods, by (y) forty-four percent (44%), which the
Shareholders agree fairly approximates the marginal federal, state and local
income tax rate that will apply to the portion of ACSYS' S corporation Taxable
Income that will be allocated to each Shareholder. ACSYS shall pay the
Distributions to the Shareholders not later than April 1, 1998. The parties
hereto intend that this provision comply with the requirements of section
1.1361-1(1)(2)(iv) of the Treasury Regulations, and this provision shall be
interpreted consistently therewith.

ARTICLE IV
MISCELLANEOUS

6.1 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each
------------
of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which counterparts collectively
shall constitute an instrument representing the Agreement between the parties
hereto.

6.2 Construction of Terms. Nothing herein expressed or implied is
---------------------
intended, or shall be construed, to confer upon or give any person, firm or
corporation, other than the parties hereto or their respective successors, any
rights or remedies under or by reason of this Agreement.

6.3 Intent of Parties. It is the parties' intent that the liability for
-----------------
income taxes arising from the operations of ACSYS will be borne by the
Shareholders for the period through and including the S Short Year and by ACSYS
for periods beginning with the C Short Year, and this Agreement shall be
construed so as most equitably to achieve such intent.

6.4 Governing Law. This Agreement between the parties hereto shall be
-------------
governed by and construed in accordance with the substantive laws of the State
of Georgia without regard to its choice of law rules.

6.5 Severability. In the event that any one or more of the provisions
