                      NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1.       Basis of Presentation

         The consolidated financial statements of Interim Services Inc. and
         subsidiaries (the "Company"), included herein, do not include all
         footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial
         statements and, therefore, should be read in conjunction with the
         Company's financial statements and notes thereto for each of the
         fiscal years in the three year period ended December 25, 1998
         included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K.

         The consolidated financial statements for the three and six months
         ended June 25, 1999 and June 26, 1998 are unaudited and, in the
         opinion of management, reflect all adjustments (consisting only of
         normal recurring adjustments) necessary for fair presentation of
         financial position, results of operations and cash flows for such
         periods. Results for the three and six months ended June 25, 1999
         are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the
         full fiscal year ending December 31, 1999.

2.       Comprehensive Income

         Comprehensive income, which totaled $12.4 million and $6.1 million
         for the three months ended June 25, 1999 and June 26, 1998,
         respectively, is comprised of net earnings of $18.8 million and
         $10.8 million, respectively, and foreign currency translation
         adjustments of ($6.4 million) and ($4.7 million).

         Comprehensive income, which totaled $14.8 million and $18.2 million
         for the six months ended June 25, 1999 and June 26, 1998,
         respectively, is comprised of net earnings of $34.7 million and
         $21.4 million, respectively, and foreign currency translation
         adjustments of ($19.9 million) and ($3.2 million).

3.       Earnings Per Share

         Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing the Company's
         earnings by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during
         the period.

         Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing the Company's
         earnings by the weighted average number of shares outstanding and
         the impact of all dilutive potential common shares, primarily stock
         options, convertible subordinated notes, restricted stock and
         deferred stock units. The dilutive impact of stock options is
         determined by applying the treasury stock method and the dilutive
         impact of the convertible subordinated notes is determined by
         applying the "if converted" method.

         The following table reconciles the numerator (earnings) and
         denominator (shares) of the basic and diluted earnings per share
         computations for net earnings.

4.       Segment Information

         The Company operates within the staffing industry in 12 countries
         around the world: Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Hong Kong,
         Italy, New Zealand, Singapore, Spain, The Netherlands, the United
         Kingdom and the United States. The Company considers its operating
         segments to be North America, Europe and Australia/Asia. These
         operating segments generally follow the management organization
         structure of the Company and also represent, in the opinion of
         management, the most meaningful aggregation of the Company's
         multiple operating units across the world. This aggregation is based
         upon geographic similarities including market growth rates,
         profitability, foreign currency exposure and local laws and
         regulations. In each of these operating segments the Company's four
         services, consulting, managed services, search/recruitment and
         flexible staffing, are provided. The Company evaluates the
         performance of its operating segments and allocates resources to
         them based on revenues, gross profit and segment contribution.
         Segment contribution is defined as income before central costs,
         interest and income taxes. All intercompany revenues and expenses
         are eliminated in computing segment revenues, gross profit and

5.       Acquisitions

         During the six months ended June 25, 1999, the Company completed
         acquisitions for total cash consideration of approximately $40 million
         and made the final payment associated with the 1998 acquisition of
         Computer Power Group Limited ("Computer Power") in the amount of
         approximately $111 million.

6.       Norrell Merger

         On July 2, 1999, the Company completed its previously announced merger
         with Norrell Corporation ("Norrell"). Norrell shareholders received
         either 0.9 shares of Interim common stock or a cash payment of $18.7622
         per share. The holders of approximately 12% of Norrell's common stock
         elected to receive cash in lieu of Interim stock and Interim issued
         approximately 21 million shares to former Norrell shareholders and
         converted existing Norrell stock options into options to purchase
         approximately 1.6 million shares of Interim common stock. The value of
         the transaction based upon the closing price of Interim stock on June
         30, 1999, and debt assumed was approximately $650 million.

         In contemplation of the merger with Norrell and subsequent to June 25,
         1999, the Company completed a plan of financing which included
         increasing the size of the senior credit facility from $359.2 million
         to $675.0 million, issuing $150.0 million in debt backed by the
         Company's accounts receivable and issuing $53.0 million in Australian
         dollar term financing. The existing senior credit facility's term was
         extended five years to 2008. The outstanding balance under this
         facility was $256.0 million at June 25, 1999. The debt backed by
         accounts receivable and the Australian financing were used to repay
         existing indebtedness of Norrell, fund the cash portion of the purchase
         price and fund transaction costs associated with the merger.

         The merger will be accounted for using the purchase method of
         accounting, and Norrell's tangible and intangible assets and
         liabilities will be adjusted to their fair market values at the date of
         the completion of the merger. Any

                                       6

<PAGE>

         excess consideration paid by Interim over the fair market value of
         Norrell's net assets will be allocated to goodwill and other
         intangibles. The final determination of the required purchase
         accounting adjustments, including the amount recorded as goodwill
         and other intangibles, has not been completed and the amounts
         included in these pro forma financial statements are preliminary.

         The combined company will operate through approximately 1,300 offices
         throughout North America, Europe and Asia Pacific, with pro forma
         revenues of approximately $4 billion in 1999. See Item 5 for pro forma
         financial information for the combined company.

7.       Extraordinary Item

         In June 1998 the Company used a portion of net proceeds from the Common
         Stock and Notes Offerings to repay its U.S. dollar denominated term
         loan (the "term loan") and U.S. dollar denominated amounts outstanding
         under its revolving credit facility. The prepayment of the term loan
         and the termination of the related interest rate swap agreements
         resulted in an extraordinary charge for early extinguishment of debt of
         $2.8 million ($4.6 million before tax) or $0.06 per diluted share in
         1998.

THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 25, 1999 COMPARED WITH THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 26,
1998

REVENUES. Revenues for the three months ended June 25, 1999 increased 31.5%
to $607.1 million from $461.6 million in the prior year. Consulting revenues
increased 64.0% reflecting the fourth quarter 1998 acquisitions of Computer
Power Group Limited ("Computer Power") in Australia and Ouranos Informatica
Groep B.V. ("Ouranos") in The Netherlands, both of which provide IT
consulting, as well as strong organic growth in IT consulting. Managed
services revenues increased 26.2% reflecting the continued expansion in North
America of both the Interim On-Premise program and technology help-desk
services. Search/recruitment revenues increased 17.6% due to strong organic
growth primarily in European finance and accounting recruitment. Flexible
staffing revenues increased 28.1% reflecting the acquisitions of AGO
Uitzendbureau ("AGO") in The Netherlands in July 1998, Computer Power in
December 1998 and Tutor Recursos Humanos ("Tutor") in March 1999; and
continued strong organic growth in European and Australian/Asian finance and
accounting flexible staffing. North American administrative and light
industrial flexible staffing also contributed to flexible staffing growth in
the second quarter.

GROSS PROFIT. Gross profit for the three months ended June 25, 1999 increased
27.0% to $200.6 million from $158.0 million in the prior year. Gross profit
margin was 33.0% compared with 34.2% in the prior year. Margins were lower
principally due to the inclusion this year of Computer Power's flexible
staffing, lower pricing associated with business expansion at existing
On-Premise clients and higher self-insured workers' compensation costs.

SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. Selling, general and
administrative expenses increased 29.3% to $140.3 million from $108.5 million
in the prior year period. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a
percentage of revenues were 23.1% compared with 23.5% a year ago with higher
revenues allowing greater leveraging of expenses. The Company also continued
to deploy new technology including a new front-office system within its North
American flexible staffing offices and continued the consolidation of North
American back office operations.

LICENSEE COMMISSIONS. Licensee commissions increased 6.0% to $13.5 million
from $12.7 million in the prior year period and consistent with the growth of
license revenue.

AMORTIZATION OF INTANGIBLES. Amortization expense increased 23.6% to $6.9
million from $5.6 million in the prior year period reflecting the increase in
intangible assets arising from acquisitions.

INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense decreased 11.0% to $6.9 million from $7.7
million last year. This decrease primarily resulted from the refinancing of a
portion of the Company's existing credit facilities at lower rates in May
1998 from the issuance of $207 million, 4 1/2% convertible subordinated notes
partially offset by higher average borrowings. The Company had average
borrowings outstanding during 1999 of $507.0 million at an average rate of
interest, including the effects of interest rate swaps, of 5.4 % compared
with $461.0 million outstanding during 1998 at an average rate of interest of
6.7%.

INTEREST  INCOME. Interest  income  decreased to $0.6 million  from $0.9
million in the prior year period.

INCOME TAXES.  The  effective  tax rate for the first quarter of 1999 was
44.0%  compared with 44.2% in 1998.

NET EARNINGS. Net earnings increased 74.2% to $18.8 million ($0.40 per
diluted share) from $10.8 million ($0.25 per diluted share) in the prior year
period. This represents a 60.0% increase in per share net earnings. Net
earnings for 1998 include an extraordinary loss on the early extinguishment
of debt in the after-tax amount of $2.8 million. Before this extraordinary
loss, net earnings and earnings per share increased 38.7% and 29.0%,
respectively. The weighted average number of shares (as adjusted for the
dilutive impact of potential common stock) increased to 50.6 million from
45.4 million in the prior year, primarily due to the issuance of 7.0 million
shares of common stock and $207.0 million of convertible subordinated debt in
the second quarter of 1998, partially offset by the repurchase

                                       8

of approximately 3 million shares by the Company of its common stock in April
1999 in contemplation of the Norrell merger.

REVENUES. Revenues for the six months ended June 25, 1999 increased 33.6% to
$1,173.1 million from $877.8 million in the prior year. Consulting revenues
increased 70.9% reflecting the fourth quarter 1998 acquisitions of Computer
Power and Ouranos, as well as strong organic growth in North American IT
consulting. Managed services revenues increased 23.8% reflecting the
continued expansion in North America of both the Interim On-Premise program
and technology help-desk services. Search/recruitment revenues increased
22.9% due to strong organic growth primarily in European finance and
accounting recruitment. Flexible staffing revenues increased 29.6% reflecting
the acquisitions of Crone Corkill Group PLC ("Crone Corkill") in the United
Kingdom in March 1998, AGO in July 1998, Computer Power in December 1998 and
Tutor in March 1999. Continued strong organic growth in European and
Australian/Asian finance and accounting flexible staffing also contributed to
1999 revenue growth. North American administrative and light industrial
flexible staffing also contributed to flexible staffing growth in 1999.

GROSS PROFIT. Gross profit for the six months ended June 25, 1999 increased
30.7% to $389.0 million from $297.5 million in the prior year. Gross profit
margin was 33.2% compared with 33.9% in the prior year. Margins were lower
principally due to the inclusion this year of Computer Power's flexible
staffing pricing, lower pricing associated with business expansion at
existing On-Premise clients and higher self-insured workers' compensation
costs.

SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. Selling, general and
administrative expenses increased 34.9% to $275.9 million from $204.5 million
in the prior year period. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a
percentage of revenues were 23.5% compared with 23.3% a year ago due to the
increase in consulting revenues as a percentage of total revenues in 1999 as
a result of acquisitions made in the latter half of 1998, deployment of
technology and consolidation of North American back office operations
partially offset by leveraging of other costs as revenues continued to grow.

LICENSEE COMMISSIONS. Licensee commissions increased 3.6% to $25.2 million
from $24.4 million in the prior year period and consistent with the growth of
license revenue.

AMORTIZATION OF INTANGIBLES. Amortization expense increased 26.3% to $13.8
million from $10.9 million in the prior year period reflecting the increase
in intangible assets arising from acquisitions.

INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense decreased 14.7% to $13.5 million from
$15.8 million last year. This decrease primarily resulted from the
refinancing of a portion of the Company's existing credit facilities at lower
rates in May 1998 from the issuance of $207 million, 4 1/2% convertible
subordinated notes partially offset by higher average borrowings. The Company
had average borrowings outstanding during 1999 of $481.0 million at an
average rate of interest, including the effects of interest rate swaps, of
5.6% compared with $452.7 million outstanding during 1998 at an average rate
of interest of 6.9%.

INTEREST INCOME. Interest income increased to $1.4 million from $1.2 million
in the prior year period.

INCOME TAXES.  The effective tax rate for the second half of 1999 was 44.0%
compared with 44.2% in 1998.

NET EARNINGS. Net earnings increased 62.5% to $34.7 million ($0.73 per
diluted share) from $21.4 million ($0.51 per diluted share) in the prior year
period. This represents a 43.1% increase in per share net earnings. Net
earnings for 1998 include an extraordinary loss on the early extinguishment
of debt in the after tax amount of $2.8 million. Before this extraordinary
loss, net earnings and earnings per share increased 43.9% and 28.1%,
respectively. The weighted average number of shares (as adjusted for the
dilutive impact of potential common stock) increased to 52.0 million from
43.1 million in the prior year, primarily due to the issuance of 7.0 million
shares of common stock and $207.0 million of convertible subordinated notes
in the second quarter of 1998 offset by the repurchase of approximately 3
million shares by the Company of its common stock in April.

THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 25, 1999 COMPARED WITH THREE MONTHS ENDED JUNE 26, 1998

NORTH AMERICA. North American revenues, which represented 65.1% of total
revenues for the three months ended June 25, 1999, increased 16.6% to $395.4
million from $339.0 million. Gross profit for the three months ended June 25,
1999 in North America increased 13.8% over the prior year period and the
gross profit margin was slightly lower than in the prior year period. Segment
contribution (income before central costs, interest and income taxes)

                                10

<PAGE>

increased 27.0% over the prior year period. Higher revenues for the three
months ended June 25, 1999, compared with the prior year period resulted from
strong organic growth rates in most service offerings with particularly
strong growth in both IT related consulting and flexible staffing and the
expansion of Interim On-Premise. Segment contribution rates increased in 1999
compared with 1998 as the Company was able to leverage fixed costs more
efficiently. This improvement was partially offset by the deployment of new
technology including a new front-office system within its North American
flexible staffing offices and the consolidation of the North American back
office operations.

EUROPE. European revenues, which represented 24.4% of total revenues for the
three months ended June 25, 1999, increased 34.2% to $148.1 million from
$110.3 million in the prior year. Gross profit in Europe increased 25.7% over
the prior year and the gross profit margin decreased to 44.1% from 47.1% in
the prior year. Segment contribution increased 12.6% over the prior year
period. Factors contributing to the increase in revenues, gross profit and
segment contribution include the acquisitions of AGO in July 1998, Ouranos in
November 1998 and Tutor in March 1999 combined with continued organic growth
in both finance and accounting flexible staffing and search/recruitment and
IT consulting. The decrease in European gross profit margin is primarily due
to increased flexible staffing revenues as a percentage of total revenues.
Flexible staffing gross profit margins are lower than search/recruitment
margins. The decline in gross profit margin was partially offset by an
increase in IT related consulting revenues. The decrease in segment
contribution as a percentage of revenues from 14.0% in 1998 to 11.8% in 1999
resulted primarily from the lower gross profit margin.

AUSTRALIA/ASIA. Australian/Asian revenue, which represented 10.5% of total
revenues for the three months ended June 25, 1999, increased significantly to
$63.6 million from $12.3 million due primarily to the acquisition of Computer
Power. Gross profit increased to $21.0 million from $5.6 million and segment
contribution increased to $4.9 million from $1.3 million in the prior year
for the same reason. The decrease in Australian/Asian gross profit margin
from 45.6% to 32.9% is due to the addition of a significant amount of
flexible staffing revenue with the acquisition of Computer Power.

</TABLE>

NORTH AMERICA. North American revenues, which represented 64.9% of total
revenues for the six months ended June 25,

                                   11

<PAGE>

1999, increased 16.3% to $761.9 million from $655.2 million. Gross profit for
the six months ended June 25, 1999 in North America increased 14.7% over the
prior year period and the gross profit margin was slightly lower than in the
prior year period. Segment contribution increased 17.4% over the prior year
period. Higher revenues for the six months ended June 25, 1999, compared with
the prior year period resulted from strong organic growth rates in most
service offerings with particularly strong growth in both IT related
consulting and flexible staffing and the expansion of Interim On-Premise.
Segment contribution rates increased in 1999 compared with 1998 as the
Company was able to leverage fixed costs more efficiently. This improvement
was partially offset by the deployment of new technology including a new
front-office system within its North American flexible staffing offices and
the consolidation of the North American back office operations.

EUROPE. European revenues, which represented 24.7% of total revenues for the
six months ended June 25, 1999, increased 45.1% to $289.4 million from $199.4
million in the prior year. Gross profit in Europe   increased 36.8% over the
prior year and the gross profit margin   decreased to 44.5% from 47.3% in the
prior year. Segment contribution increased 26.6% over the prior year period.
Factors contributing to the increase in revenues, gross profit and segment
contribution include the acquisitions of Crone Corkill in March 1998, AGO in
July 1998, Ouranos in November 1998 and Tutor in March 1999 combined with
continued organic growth in both finance and accounting flexible staffing and
search/recruitment and IT consulting. The decrease in European gross profit
margin is primarily due to increased flexible staffing revenues as a
percentage of total revenues. The decline in gross profit margin was
partially offset by an increase in IT related consulting revenues.  The
decrease in segment contribution as a percentage of revenues from 14.1% in
1998 to 12.3% in 1999 resulted primarily from the lower gross profit margin.

AUSTRALIA/ASIA. Australian/Asian revenue, which represented 10.4% of total
revenues for the six months ended June 25, 1999, increased significantly to
$121.8 million from $23.2 million due primarily to the acquisition of
Computer Power. Gross profit increased to $39.0 million from $10.6 million
and segment contribution increased to $7.8 million from $2.1 million in the
prior year for the same reasons. The decrease in Australian/Asian gross
profit margin from 45.8% to 32.0% is due to the addition of a significant
amount of flexible staffing revenue.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

CASH FLOW

Cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 25, 1999
was $32.4 million compared with $12.6 million in the prior year. Higher
operating cash flows resulted from increased earnings and higher amortization
and depreciation primarily as a result of acquisitions during the last half
of 1998. Cash used for working capital items was about the same in both
periods with an increase in accruals as a result of growth and acquisitions
largely offset by an increase in accounts receivable due primarily to higher
sales and days sales outstanding.

Investing activities used $172.6 million for the six months ended June 25,
1999 primarily due to the remaining payments on the December 1998 acquisition
of Computer Power as well as first quarter 1999 acquisitions in the areas of
European and North American flexible staffing. Investing activities also
included $21.9 million of capital expenditures, primarily for new computer
hardware and software to continue to upgrade and expand the Company's
information technology capabilities and new office related expenditures.

Cash provided by financing activities was $19.5 million for the six months
ended June 25, 1999 and primarily reflects $56.6 million of net borrowings in
the United Kingdom under the senior credit facility, offset by $51.7 million
of purchases of the Company's common stock. The Company repurchased
approximately 3.2 million shares of common stock in contemplation of the
Norrell Merger.

In contemplation of the merger with Norrell and subsequent to June 25, 1999,
the Company completed a plan of financing which included increasing the size
of the senior credit facility from $359.2 million to $675.0 million, issuing
$150.0 million in debt backed by the Company's accounts receivable and
issuing $53.0 million in Australian dollar term financing. The existing
senior credit facility's term was extended five years to 2008. The
outstanding balance under this facility was $256.0 million at June 25, 1999.
The debt backed by accounts receivable and the Australian financing were used
to repay existing indebtedness of Norrell, fund the cash portion of the
purchase price and fund transaction costs associated with the merger.

After completion of these transactions, the Company's outstanding
indebtedness was approximately $736.0

                                        12

<PAGE>

million, an increase of $224 million from the balance outstanding at June 25,
1999. The Company has over $400 million of available capacity under its
current credit facilities to fund its operating requirements.

YEAR 2000 COMPLIANCE

As discussed in the Company's 1998 Annual Report on Form 10-K, the Company
determined it will be required to upgrade certain application systems to
ensure operability after the year 1999. To ensure that the Company's computer
systems are Year 2000 compliant, the Company continues to utilize internal
and external resources for testing and project management of the Year 2000
modifications ("Year 2000 project" or "project").

Substantially all of the Company's applications are tested, implemented and
validated. The Company has contacted all material vendors and others on whom
it relies to assure that their systems will be converted in a timely fashion.
Based on current information received, the Company does not foresee any
material potential risk with its significant vendors and business partners,
but is in the process of obtaining final certifications from vendors which
have only recently completed their efforts. However, there can be no
assurance that the systems of other companies on which the Company's systems
rely will be converted timely, or that a failure to convert by another
company would not have a material adverse effect on the Company.

The Company estimates that the total cost of the project (excluding Norrell)
will be approximately $750,000, which includes both personnel costs related
to project management, programming and hardware and software upgrades. Of
this total, approximately $585,000 has been incurred as of June 25, 1999. If
certain systems or systems of other companies on which the Company relies
fail to be converted timely, the Company will develop a contingency plan in
the last half of 1999.

As discussed in Norrell's 1998 Annual Report on Form 10-K, Norrell has
developed a comprehensive Year 2000 project plan which addresses both
technological and non-IT systems, including embedded systems for all business
units. Norrell has designated a multi-phase approach consisting of both
internal and external resources to identify, correct and test systems to
achieve Year 2000 compliance. In addition, Norrell is also reviewing the Year
2000 readiness of third parties that provide goods or services essential to
its operations.

Norrell's key operational systems, which include, but are not limited to
payroll, billing, and accounts receivable, are also being remediated for year
2000 compliance. Norrell's primary payroll and billing system is Year 2000
ready. The general ledger and other major payroll systems are expected to be
Year 2000 ready during the third quarter. The Company expects that most of
Norrell's operational systems will be abandoned in early 2000 when they are
converted to Interim's operational systems.

Total estimated costs to remediate the Norrell systems continue to be $18.0
million to $22.0 million of which $16.5 million has been incurred and
expensed prior to the merger with Interim.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

As of June 25, 1999, the Company maintains a portion of its cash and cash
equivalents in financial instruments with original maturities of three months
or less. These financial instruments are subject to interest rate risk and
will decline in value if interest rates increase. Due to the short duration
of these financial instruments, an immediate increase of 1% in interest rates
would not have a material effect on the Company's financial condition.

The Company's outstanding debt under the revolving Credit Facility and other
borrowings, excluding the convertible subordinated notes, at June 25, 1999
were $304.5 million. Interest rates on these borrowings are based on LIBOR
plus a variable margin. Based on the outstanding balance, a change of 1.0% in
the interest rate would cause a change in interest expense of approximately
$3.0 million on an annual basis not considering the offset of the interest
rate swap discussed below.

The Company utilizes interest rate swap agreements to reduce the impact on
interest expense of fluctuating interest

                                   13

<PAGE>

rates on its variable rate debt. The Company had a variable to variable
interest rate swap agreement outstanding as of June 25, 1999 with the
notional amount of $119.0 million which effectively converts interest from a
British Pound LIBOR basis to a broader index and caps the Company's exposure
to upward movement in rates at 8.5%. This agreement expires in 2002. The cost
to terminate this interest rate swap as of June 25, 1999 was $2.5 million.

In May 1998, the Company issued $207.0 million of 4 1/2% Convertible
Subordinated Notes due June 2005. The fair value of the Company's fixed rate
convertible subordinated debt as of June 25, 1999 was $177.0 million compared
with the related carrying value of $207.0 million.

The purpose of the Company's foreign exchange hedging activities is to
mitigate the impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The
Company attempts to hedge transaction exposures through natural offsets. To
the extent this is not practicable, exposure areas which are considered for
hedging include foreign currency denominated receivables and payables,
intercompany loans and firm committed transactions. The Company uses
financial instruments, principally forward exchange contracts, in its
management of foreign currency exposures. The Company does not enter into
forward contracts for trading purposes. At June 25, 1999 the Company had
outstanding foreign currency forward contracts which are designated as a
hedge of an intercompany loan to sell Australian dollars in the notional
amount of $118.0 million. The cost to terminate the foreign currency forward
contracts as of June 26, 1999 was not material.

ITEM 5. -- OTHER INFORMATION

Unaudited pro forma financial information for Interim and Norrell

Attached are the unaudited pro forma financial statements of Interim and
Norrell for their latest reported quarterly reporting periods. The merger
closed on July 2, 1999 and the attached pro forma financial statements
present the latest pro forma information available. Interim's quarter ended
on June 25, 1999 and Norrell's quarter ended on May 2, 1999. In preparing
this data, Interim's June 25, 1999 balance sheet was combined with Norrell's
balance sheet as of May 2, 1999. The unaudited statements of earnings were
combined for Interim's six months ended June 25, 1999 and Norrell's six
months ended May 2, 1999. After the merger, Norrell will change its fiscal
reporting periods to conform to Interim's reporting periods.

The merger will be accounted for using the purchase method of accounting, and
Norrell's tangible and intangible assets and its liabilities will be adjusted
to their fair market values at the date of the completion of the merger. Any
excess consideration paid by Interim over the fair market value of Norrell's
net assets will be allocated to goodwill and other intangibles. The final
determination of the required purchase accounting adjustments, including the
amount recorded as goodwill and other intangibles, has not been completed and
the amounts included in these pro forma financial statements are preliminary.

The attached pro forma financial statements include only those pro forma
adjustments based on known information currently available and these
assumptions do not include potential cost savings that may result from the
merger. Therefore, it is likely that the combined company would have
performed differently from the attached pro forma financial statements
indicate.

</TABLE>

     Goodwill represents the excess of cost over book value of the net assets
     acquired. The accrued liabilities above include severance for certain
     executives, field employees and administrative personnel at Norrell. No
     estimate has been made in our pro forma financial information for
     certain costs such as office closures, employee relocation and other
     items that will be incurred in the combination of the businesses once
     Interim completes its final allocation of the merger consideration.

b)   Represents additional borrowings of long-term debt to fund the cash
     portion of the consideration to be paid by Interim in the merger and to
     fund approximately $6.456 million in transaction costs to issue debt and
     additional shares of Interim stock, including $5.616 million in costs
     capitalized as other assets related to the issuance of new debt. This
     debt will be funded by additional borrowings under Interim's amended and
     restated credit facility at an assumed interest rate of 5.6% for the
     first half of 1999.

c)   Represents the elimination of the existing Norrell equity balance and
     the issuance of shares to complete the merger. This equity value was
     derived by using the price of Interim common shares for the twenty
     business days ending June 30, 1999, which is the price paid to Norrell
     shareholders of $20.8469 per share.

d)   Represents the reduction of amortization expense associated with the
     abandonment of Norrell management information system software which was
     written down to its estimated fair value.

e)   Represents amortization of the goodwill acquired in the merger over a
     period of 40 years.

f)   Represents interest expense on approximately $86.8 million estimated
     borrowing under Interim's credit facility at the assumed rate of 5.6%
     for the first half of 1999. This amount also includes estimated debt
     issuance costs associated with an amendment to increase the availability
     under the credit facility and an extension of the term. The debt
     issuance costs are amortized on a straight-line basis over a period of
     five years. The interest rate on borrowing under the credit facility may
     differ from the assumption set forth in Note b above.

g)   Represents the tax impact of the pro forma adjustments using Interim's
     statutory tax rate of 39%.

h)   Represents basic and diluted weighted average outstanding Interim common
     shares as of June 25, 1999 plus additional Interim common shares issued
     in the merger as discussed in Note c above. Total dilutive securities
     are comprised of Interim weighted average dilutive shares of 51,977,000
     plus Norrell's dilutive shares of 21,029,000

                                       18

     and the dilutive impact of Norrell stock options (26,815,765 total Norrell
     common shares exchanged at 0.9 Norrell common shares for each Interim
     common share and with 12.87% of the shares exchanged for cash).
