         Employment Agreement and Severance Arrangements

         On June 27, 1994 the Company entered into an employment agreement with
Mr. Corder for a term until June 26, 2000.  On January 24, 2000 Mr. Corder
retired from the Company.  Base salary payable under the agreement at the time
of his retirement was $300,000.   Mr. Corder's employment agreement provided for
the following:

         Upon termination of Mr. Corder's employment without cause, Mr. Corder
would continue to receive salary and benefits for 24 months, and receive a bonus
equal to the amount of bonuses received by him during the 24 months prior to
termination. During such period any stock options held by Mr. Corder would
continue to vest and he would have

                                      - 6 -
<PAGE>
the right to exercise such options that are or become exercisable during such
period. If Mr. Corder resigned his employment for "cause" (as defined in the
employment agreement), he would continue to receive salary and benefits for 36
months. During such period any stock options held by Mr. Corder would continue
to vest and he would have the right to exercise such options that were or became
exercisable during such period. If Mr. Corder were terminated by the Company for
"cause" (as defined in the employment agreement) he would not be entitled to
receive any termination pay or benefits beyond the effective date of
termination. If Mr. Corder terminated his employment without "cause" the Company
could accept his resignation or require him to continue his employment at the
same salary and benefits for a period not to exceed six months. In the event of
termination upon a change of control (as defined in the employment agreement)
the aggregate amount of severance paid under the employment agreement or
otherwise (but exclusive of any amount payable under any incentive benefit plan
upon a change of control) would not include any amount that the Company is
prohibited from deducting under Section 2806 of the Internal Revenue Code or any
successor provision. If Mr. Corder died or became disabled (as defined in the
employment agreement) his salary would continue to be paid to his designee for
12 months after his death or termination by reason of disability. The Company
also provided Mr. Corder with a $250,000 life insurance policy (plus $250,000
accidental death coverage) payable to his designated beneficiaries.

         Under the employment agreement Mr. Corder agreed that during the term
of the employment agreement he would not, directly or indirectly, engage in any
activities in conflict with the best interests of the Company. He further agreed
not to be employed by or otherwise engage or be interested in any other
business, whether or not in competition with the Company, with certain
exceptions. In addition, Mr. Corder agreed that he would not at any time
disclose any confidential information of the Company that he obtained as a
result of his employment with the Company.

         The Company is in the process of negotiating a severance agreement with
Mr. Corder.

         Report of the Compensation Committee

         The Compensation Committee follows established rationale and policies
for compensating the Company's executive officers. The following Report of the
Compensation Committee describes these policies and rationales with respect to
the compensation paid to such executive officers for the fiscal year ended
September 30, 1999.

         Policy. The Compensation Committee's fundamental policy is to provide a
compensation program for executive officers that will (i) enable the Company to
attract and retain the services of highly-qualified individuals and (ii) offer
the Company's executive officers competitive compensation opportunities based
upon overall Company performance and their individual contribution to the
financial success of the Company. It is the Committee's objective to have a
substantial portion of each officer's compensation contingent upon the Company's
performance, as well as upon such officer's own level of performance.
Accordingly, each executive officer's compensation package is comprised of three
elements: (i) base salary, which is designed to be competitive with salary
levels of similar companies that compete with the Company for executive talent
and reflects individual performance; (ii) annual variable performance awards
payable in cash and tied to the Company's achievement of financial performance
goals and the executive's contribution; and (iii) long-term stock option awards,
which create common interests for the executive officers and the shareholders.

         Base Salary. Individual salaries are determined based on individual
experience, performance and breadth of responsibility within the Company. The
Compensation Committee reviews these factors for each executive officer each
year. In addition, the Compensation Committee considers executive officers'
salaries for relative competitiveness within the Company's industry.

                                      - 7 -
<PAGE>
         Bonuses. On September 26, 1991, the Compensation Committee adopted an
Incentive Bonus Plan for its executive officers. The Incentive Bonus Plan is
based on the year-to-year growth in net profit and on the return on equity. In
fiscal 1999, two executive officers were paid bonuses in an aggregate of
$100,000 under the plan.

         Stock Option Plans. The Company has the Analytical Surveys, Inc. 1993
Non-Qualified Stock Option Plan and the Analytical Surveys, Inc. 1997 Incentive
Stock Option Plan, as amended and supplemented (the "Option Plans"). The Option
Plans are long-term incentive plans for employees and are intended to align
shareholder and employee interests by establishing a direct link between
long-term rewards and the value of the Company's stock. The Compensation
Committee believes that long-term stock incentives for executive officers and
employees are an important factor in retaining valued employees and in achieving
growth in share value. The options utilize vesting periods that encourage
employees to continue in the employ of the Company. Because the value of an
option bears a direct relationship to the Company's stock price, the
Compensation Committee believes that options motivate officers and employees to
manage the Company in a manner that will benefit all shareholders.

         The size of stock option grants is determined by a number of factors,
including comparable grants to executive officers and employees by other similar
companies, as well as the relative position and responsibilities of executive
officers and other employees with the Company, the individual performance of the
executive officer or employee over the previous fiscal year and the anticipated
contribution of the executive officer or employee to the attainment of the
Company's long-term strategic performance goals. The exercise price per share of
each stock option is equal to the closing market price of a share of the
Company's common stock on the date such option is granted. The Committee views
stock option grants as an important component of its long-term,
performance-based compensation philosophy.

         CEO Compensation. The compensation of Sidney Corder, Chairman of the
Board, President and Chief Executive Officer during fiscal 1999 consisted of
base salary, typically an annual bonus and occasionally stock options. The Board
of Directors periodically reviews the Chief Executive Officer's base salary and
bonus and revises his compensation based on the Board's overall evaluation of
his performance toward the achievement of the Company's financial, strategic and
other goals, with consideration given to chief executive officer compensation
information at similar companies. The Compensation Committee believes that the
Company's success is dependent in part upon the efforts of its Chief Executive
Officer. In fiscal 1999, Mr. Corder earned a base salary of $300,000 as
recommended by the Compensation Committee and approved by the Board of
Directors. Application of the Incentive Bonus Plan was deferred. No stock
options were granted to Mr. Corder in fiscal 1999.

         Deductibility of Executive Compensation. The Compensation Committee is
responsible for addressing the issues raised by Internal Revenue Code Section
162(m) ("Section 162(m)"). This Section limits to $1 million the Company's
deduction for compensation paid to certain executive officers of the Company
which does not qualify as "performance-based." To qualify as performance based
under Section 162(m), compensation payments must be made pursuant to a plan that
is administered by a committee of outside directors and must be based on
achieving objective performance goals. In addition, the material terms of the
plan must be disclosed to and approved by shareholders, and the Compensation
Committee must certify that the performance goals were achieved before payments
can be awarded. The Company believes that all compensation paid to its executive
officers listed in the Summary Compensation Table in fiscal 1998 is fully
deductible and that compensation paid under the plans will continue to be
deductible. The Committee's present intention is to comply with the requirements
of Section 162(m) unless and until the Committee determines that compliance
would not be in the best interest of the Company and its shareholders.

                                      - 8 -

         Option Repricing. On December 11, 1998, upon the recommendation of the
Compensation Committee, the Board met to consider repricing of options granted
in fiscal 1998. The Board concluded that the price at which the options were
originally priced was exceptionally high due to unusually high market conditions
in February 1998, the time when the options were granted. The Board also
concluded that the grant had largely lost the incentive the outstanding options
were intended to create. The Board considered the market prices of the common
stock for the year and determined to re-price those grants to $33. The new
option price was approximately the average of ASI's stock price for the year and
was above the market price ($25) at the date of re-pricing.
