Annual Meeting of Shareholders
May 21, 2013

PROXY STATEMENT

GENERAL INFORMATION

Outstanding Shares and Voting Rights

This Proxy Statement is furnished in connection with the solicitation by the Board of Directors of proxies in the accompanying form, for use at the 2013 Annual Meeting of Shareholders of the Company on May 21, 2013, at the location and for the purposes set forth in the Notice of Annual Meeting, and at any adjournment thereof. Shares will be voted in the manner directed by the shareholders through their proxies, Internet voting or telephone voting. As of the record date, April 1, 2013, there were 5,110,127 shares of common stock outstanding and entitled to be voted. Each share is entitled to one vote. Cumulative voting is not permitted.

Proxy cards that are signed by shareholders but lack any such specification will be voted in favor of the proposals as set forth herein. A shareholder giving a proxy may revoke it at any time before it is exercised by (a) delivering to the Secretary of the Company, at or prior to the meeting, a later dated duly executed proxy relating to the same shares, or (b) delivering to the Secretary of the Company, at or prior to the meeting, a written notice of revocation bearing a later date than the proxy. Any written notice or proxy revoking a previously submitted proxy should be sent to Analysts International Corporation, 7700 France Avenue South, Suite 200, Edina, Minnesota 55435, Attention: Robert E. Woods, Secretary.

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

The proxy card also serves as a voting instruction to the Trustee of the Analysts International Savings and Investment Plan for shares held in the Plan as of the record date, provided that instructions are furnished over the Internet or by telephone by 1:00 a.m. Central Daylight Time on May 21, 2013, or that the card is signed,

returned and received by the Trustee no later than the close of business on May 20, 2013. If instructions are not received over the Internet or by telephone by 1:00 a.m. Central Daylight Time on May 21, 2013, or if the signed proxy card is not returned and received by the close of business on May 20, 2013, the shares in the Plan will be voted by the Trustee in proportion to the shares for which the Trustee receives timely voting instructions.

Directors will be elected by a favorable vote of a plurality of the common shares cast with respect to the election of directors (Proposal Number One). With respect to the ratification of our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending December 28, 2013 (Proposal Number Two) and the non-binding advisory "say-on-pay" vote on executive compensation (Proposal Number Three), the affirmative vote of a majority of the common shares present and entitled to vote at the meeting is required for approval. With respect to the non-binding advisory vote on the frequency of say-on-pay votes (Proposal Number Four), the shareholders will be deemed to have selected the frequency option that receives the most votes.

All shares voted by proxy, including abstentions, will be counted in determining whether a quorum is present at the meeting. If a shareholder abstains from voting as to any matter, then the shares held by such shareholder shall be deemed present at the meeting for purposes of determining a quorum and for purposes of calculating the vote with respect to such matter, but shall not be deemed to have been voted in favor of such matter. Accordingly, an abstention will have the effect of a negative vote with respect to all proposals other than the non-binding advisory vote on the frequency of say-on-pay votes (Proposal Number Four), on which an abstention will have no effect. If a broker returns a "non-vote" proxy, indicating a lack of voting instructions by the beneficial holder of the shares and a lack of discretionary authority on the part of the broker to vote on a particular matter, then the shares covered by such non-vote proxy shall be deemed present at the meeting for purposes of determining a quorum but shall not be deemed to be represented at the meeting for purposes of calculating the vote required for approval of such matter.

Pursuant to amendments to the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") rules, brokers do not have discretion to vote shares on the election of directors or on executive compensation matters. This NYSE rule governs all brokers. Consequently, this amendment affects all public companies that have shares held in "street name," not just NYSE-listed companies. Accordingly, if your shares are held in street name and you do not submit voting instructions to your broker, your shares will not be counted in determining the outcome of (i) the election of the director nominees, (ii) the advisory vote on executive compensation, or (iii) the advisory vote on the frequency of advisory votes on executive compensation.

Solicitation of Proxies

Solicitation will be conducted primarily by mail, and, in addition, directors, officers and employees of the Company may solicit proxies personally, by telephone or by mail at no additional compensation to them. The Company will reimburse brokerage houses and other custodians for their reasonable expenses in forwarding proxy materials to beneficial owners of common stock. The Company has retained D. F. King, 48 Wall Street, 22 ^nd Floor, New York, NY 10005 to assist with solicitation of proxies from brokerage houses and other custodians who are record holders of shares owned beneficially by others, the estimated cost of which is $9,000 plus out-of-pocket expenses.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE

The business and affairs of the Company are conducted under the direction of the Board of Directors in accordance with the Minnesota Business Corporation Act and the Company's Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws. Members of the Board of Directors are informed of the Company's business through discussions with management, by reviewing materials provided to them and by participating in meetings of the Board of Directors and its committees, among other activities. The corporate governance practices that the Company follows are summarized below.

Director Independence and Board Meetings, Independent Board Committees and Committee Meetings, Other Corporate Governance Matters

Director Independence

Majority Independent Board

The Company's Board of Directors currently is comprised of a total of seven members. Five of the members of the current Board are "independent" as defined by the listing standards of The Nasdaq Global Market. Nasdaq's definition of "independence" includes a requirement that our Board also review the relationships concerning independence of each new director on a subjective basis. In accordance with that review, our Board has made a subjective determination as to each independent director that no relationships exist that, in our Board's opinion, would interfere with his or her exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director. In making these determinations, the directors reviewed and discussed information provided by the directors and by us with regard to each director's business and personal activities as they may relate to our business and our management. None of the directors is related to any other director or to any executive officer of the Company.

Each of our directors, other than Brittany McKinney, our President and CEO, and Robert E. Woods, our Secretary, qualifies as "independent" in accordance with the listing standards of The Nasdaq Global Market. Mr. Woods is precluded from being considered independent because he has received compensation from the Company in excess of $120,000 during the 12-month period preceding the date on which this Proxy Statement was mailed. The current independent directors are: Brigid A. Bonner, Krzysztof K. Burhardt, Joseph T. Dunsmore, Galen G. Johnson and Douglas C. Neve.

Nominee Independence

Five of the nominees proposed for election herein are "independent" as defined by the listing standards of The Nasdaq Global Market (Ms. McKinney and Mr. Woods are not independent).

Board Meetings

Board Meetings

During the 2012 fiscal year, the Board of Directors held seven meetings. The Board of Directors also took one written action without meeting during the fiscal year. No incumbent director attended less than 75% of the aggregate of all Board of Directors meetings and all meetings held by any committee of the Board of Directors on which such director served.

Executive Sessions

The independent directors hold regularly scheduled executive sessions, generally in

conjunction with regularly scheduled Board meetings, but in no event less than two times per year.

Independent Audit, Compensation and Nominating and Governance Committees

The Company has standing audit, compensation and nominating and governance committees.

Audit Committee

The members of the Audit Committee are: Douglas C. Neve (Chair), Galen G. Johnson and Krzysztof K. Burhardt. Each member of the Audit Committee is "independent" as defined by the listing standards of The Nasdaq Global Market and meet the definition of "independence" in Rule 10A-3(b)(1) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. The Committee held five meetings during the past fiscal year and took no action without meeting during the fiscal year. Committee members consulted with one another on Committee matters between meetings. The Committee's purpose, as stated in its charter, is to oversee the majority of the Company's accounting and financial reporting policies and practices and to assist the Board of Directors in fulfilling its fiduciary and corporate accountability responsibilities.

Audit Committee Duties and Responsibilities

The Committee's responsibilities include: (i) appointment, retention, compensation, evaluation, termination and oversight of the Company's independent registered public accounting firm, including resolution of disagreements between management and the independent auditors regarding financial reporting; (ii) review and approval of the overall scope, plans and staffing of the annual audit as proposed by the independent registered public accounting firm; (iii) review of the results of the annual audit and quarterly reviews conducted by the independent registered public accounting firm; (iv) discussions with the independent auditors of critical accounting policies and procedures used by the Company; (v) review and pre-approval of services to be rendered by the Company's independent registered public accounting firm; (vi) maintaining a system for anonymous reporting of accounting irregularities, ethics concerns and violations; (vii) administration and oversight of the Company's Code of Ethical Business Conduct and Code of Ethics for Senior Financial Executives; (viii) review and discussion with management and the independent auditors of the Company's financial statements and other financial information to be included in the Company's public filings or otherwise disclosed; (ix) review of and consideration of recommendations of the independent registered public accounting firm regarding the Company's system of internal accounting controls and financial reporting; (x) review and oversight of the Company's related-party policy and approval of related-party transactions, if any; and (xi) annual review of the Committee's performance.

The Committee's responsibilities also include (a) conducting executive sessions with the external auditors, management, the Chief Financial Officer and internal audit resources as necessary; (b) reviewing and evaluating the performance of the external auditors and discharging them if necessary; (c) discussing with management and the independent auditors, prior to filing thereof, the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K, its quarterly reports on Form 10-Q and the Company's annual Proxy Statement; and (d) approving the appointment of internal audit personnel,

reviewing significant reports to management presented by the internal audit function and providing assistance to the Board's monitoring of internal audit controls. The Company's independent registered public accounting firm always has direct access to Audit Committee members. The Committee is required to prepare and present an annual report to the Board as called for in the Committee's Charter. This Proxy Statement provides further information about the Audit Committee under the caption "Report of the Audit Committee."

The Audit Committee Charter, previously adopted and amended by the Company's Board of Directors on November 4, 2009, as further amended on November 1, 2011, describes the role of the Audit Committee in overseeing the Company's financial reporting process. The Charter is available free of charge in the Investor Relations section of the Company's website at www.analysts.com . At a regular meeting held in fiscal 2012 the Committee reviewed the Audit Committee Charter and resolved to retain the Charter in its current form.

Audit Committee Financial Expert

The Board of Directors has determined that Messrs. Neve and Johnson are "audit committee financial experts" as defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Each of them possesses: (i) an understanding of generally accepted accounting principles and financial statements; (ii) the ability to assess the general application of such principles in connection with the accounting for estimates, accruals and reserves; (iii) experience preparing, auditing, analyzing or evaluating financial statements with a breadth and level of complexity commensurate with those presented by the Company's financial statements; (iv) an understanding of internal control over financial reporting; and (v) an understanding of audit committee functions.

Compensation Committee

The members of the Compensation Committee are: Krzysztof K. Burhardt (Chair), Joseph T. Dunsmore and Galen G. Johnson. All of the members of the Compensation Committee are "independent" as defined by the listing standards of The Nasdaq Global Market. The Committee held seven meetings during the past fiscal year and took one written action without meeting to review and approve a proposed offer of employment to a senior vice president and recommend that the Board of Directors grant stock options and award restricted stock units upon the effective date of the senior vice president's employment should the offer be accepted. Committee members also consulted with one another on Committee matters during the year.

A copy of the Compensation Committee Charter, previously adopted and amended by the Company's Board of Directors on February 24, 2010, further describes the role of Committee. The Charter is available free of charge in the Investor Relations section of the Company's website at www.analysts.com. At a meeting held in fiscal 2012 the Committee reviewed the Compensation Committee Charter and resolved to retain the Charter in its current form.

Compensation Committee Duties and Responsibilities

The Compensation Committee is responsible for: (i) an annual recommendation of a suitable, high-level compensation and benefits strategy to the Board of Directors; (ii) periodic evaluation and review with management of the

Company's compensation philosophy; (iii) annual review and approval of corporate goals and objectives, in consultation with other independent members of the Board of Directors, relevant to the compensation program for and performance of our Chief Executive Officer; (iv) setting the Chief Executive Officer's compensation in alignment with the annual review and approval of CEO goals and objectives; (v) annual review and approval of total compensation for the executive officers of the Company; (vi) recommending to the Board of Directors submission of all new equity-based incentive plans to the Company's shareholders; (vii) granting options under the Company's equity-based incentive plans; (viii) to the extent required by SEC rules and regulations, reviewing and discussing a Compensation Discussion and Analysis, if any, to be included in the Company's Proxy Statement or Annual Report on Form 10-K; (ix) periodic review of director compensation levels; (x) approval of any settlement of employment-related lawsuits exceeding $100,000; and (xi) annual performance evaluation of the Committee. The charter of the Compensation Committee does not provide for delegation of its authority.

Outside Compensation Consultants

In 2012, The Delves Group, an independent outside compensation consulting firm, was engaged to assist the Compensation Committee in developing a more comprehensive compensation philosophy for the Company and to conduct a competitive market analysis of executive and director compensation. Based on a competitive market analysis, The Delves Group provided the Compensation Committee with recommendations specific to the long-term incentive program for the CEO and other executives, as well as for the directors. The Company did not engage The Delves Group for any other services during fiscal year 2012.

No compensation consultant provided additional services to the Company or its affiliates in an amount in excess of $120,000 during the last completed fiscal year.

Compensation Philosophy

As an IT staffing and services company, we operate in a highly competitive industry. Attracting, retaining and motivating talented executives who will drive our marketplace success is a critical component of our ongoing financial performance. Because of this, the Committee believes that our compensation program should be designed with a dual purpose: to provide a level of total compensation required to attract and retain talented and experienced key executives and to provide balanced incentives to motivate individual performance in a manner designed for us to achieve long-term growth in shareholder value. Specifically, the Committee seeks to:

•: Provide a total compensation package comprised of base salary and performance-based annual and long-term equity incentives that are competitive with compensation packages and practices of those peer group companies with which we compete for talent, as well as IT services companies in general;
•: Condition a significant portion of executive compensation upon the achievement or surpassing of targeted results or goals in key performance measures at the corporate, business unit and individual level, as specified by the Committee, designed to emphasize sustained profitable growth and encourage appropriate risk taking;

•: Align executive compensation with the long-term financial performance of the Company and the interests of our shareholders by providing long-term compensation through stock incentives; and
•: Continue to focus on good corporate governance procedures in the establishment of compensation packages and allocation of compensation to employees.

The Committee believes that the ideal set of incentive plans should include a system of performance measures that capture the key value drivers of the Company, including revenue growth and profitability. The Committee further believes that the structure of the overall compensation program should reflect and promote a high level of collaboration and a team-oriented environment for senior leaders as well as for the rest of the Company. Individual performance objectives should recognize the unique and personal contribution employees add to long-term value creation at the Company as well as individual growth, leadership and development of employees, overall employee engagement and client satisfaction.

Setting Executive Compensation;
Role of Executive Officers

In making decisions with respect to each element of executive compensation, the Committee takes into consideration the total value of the compensation elements for each executive and all executives as a group, with the assistance of compensation consultants from time to time as the Committee deems necessary. The Committee also examines the compensation practices of the peer companies with which we believe we compete in recruiting executive talent. In addition to reviewing compensation levels against those of our peers, the Committee has considered or may consider compensation data from other sources such as proprietary compensation surveys of our compensation consultant, surveys of other human resources consulting firms, information from our internal human resources personnel and other publicly available data.

The Committee meets both in executive session and with the Chief Executive Officer to deliberate and act on compensation matters. In making its compensation decisions, the Committee will consider the input and recommendations from the Chief Executive Officer and the Company's human resources department concerning compensation matters involving the Chief Executive Officer as well as other officers, including base salary, cash incentives, stock option and restricted stock awards and severance and change in control arrangements. The Chief Executive Officer may not be present during deliberations or voting relating to his or her compensation.

Director Compensation

During fiscal year 2012 the Compensation Committee also met once to review the market competitiveness of the compensation paid to members of the Board of Directors and committees of the Board. As part of its review process, the Committee reviewed materials compiled by both the Committee and other members of the Board reflecting current levels of, and trends in, compensation for members of boards of directors of comparable publicly traded companies. Based on this review the Committee recommended that compensation for all members of the Board of Directors remain unchanged during fiscal year 2013. Director compensation is discussed in the "Narrative Disclosure of Director Compensation" section of this Proxy Statement.

Nominating and Governance Committee

The members of the Nominating and Governance Committee are: Brigid A. Bonner (Chair) and Joseph T. Dunsmore. Each member of the committee is "independent" as defined by the listing standards of The Nasdaq Global Market. The Committee held two meetings during the fiscal year and took no action without meeting during the fiscal year. Committee members consulted with one another on Committee matters throughout the year.

Nominating and Governance Committee Duties and Responsibilities

The Committee is responsible for: (i) identifying and evaluating individuals qualified to serve on the Board of Directors or to fill open positions and periodically reviewing each incumbent director and new director candidates; (ii) developing and recommending criteria for service on the Board and reviewing the skills composition of members of and candidates for the Board of Directors; (iii) making annual recommendations of individuals for election at the Company's annual meeting or to be added to the Board at other times as necessary; (iv) recommending to the Board of Directors the compositions of the Board's committees and the members to chair the committees; (v) developing, reviewing and revising the Company's corporate governance standards, including size of the Board of Directors and the orientation and continuing education of Board members; (vi) overseeing organization, membership and evaluation of Board committee members; (vii) requiring each committee and the Board of Directors as a whole to maintain an annual review process to evaluate their performance and overseeing the annual review of and reporting the results of such review to the Board of Directors; and (viii) conducting an annual self-assessment of the performance of the Committee.

A copy of the Nominating and Governance Committee Charter, as adopted by the Company's Board of Directors on October 28, 2008, and which further describes the role of Committee, is available free of charge in the Investor Relations section of the Company's website at www.analysts.com . At a meeting held in fiscal 2012 the Committee reviewed the Charter and resolved to retain the Charter in its current form.

Policies Concerning Nomination Process

The Nominating and Governance Committee generally believes that candidates for directors should have certain minimum qualifications, including possessing the ability to read and understand basic financial statements; being under 72 years of age (except those directors already serving on the Board prior to December 13, 2002); having experience with the Company's business and industry or experience in general business practices; having high moral character and mature judgment; being an independent thinker who is also able to work collegially with others; and not currently serving on more than four boards of public companies. The Nominating and Governance Committee reserves the right to modify these minimum qualifications from time to time.

The Nominating and Governance Committee will consider those candidates for nomination as a director recommended by shareholders, directors, third party search firms engaged by the Company and other sources. In evaluating director nominees, the Committee considers the following factors: (i) the appropriate size and the diversity of the Company's Board of Directors; (ii) the needs of the Board

with respect to the particular talents and experience of its directors; (iii) the knowledge, skills and experience of nominees, including experience in light of prevailing business conditions and the knowledge, skills and experience already possessed by other members of the Board; (iv) diversity among members of the Board in terms of knowledge, experience, skills, expertise and other demographics that contribute to the Board's diversity; (v) familiarity with domestic and international business matters; (vi) experience with accounting rules and practices; (vii) appreciation of the relationship between the Company's business and changes in the Company's industry and business in general; and (viii) the desire to balance the considerable benefit of board continuity with the periodic injection of the fresh perspective provided by new members. Other factors to be considered may include a history of supporting and instituting change in company culture, business processes, infrastructure or financials; experience with strategic planning; analytical skills; a history of achieving results and success as an executive; current connection to the business world, especially in geographic areas where the Company operates; and experience in the Company's industry, finance, marketing, management, technology, a public company or corporate transactions.

A shareholder who wishes to recommend one or more directors must provide a written recommendation to the Company at the address below. Notice of a recommendation must include the name and address of the shareholder making the recommendation and the class and number of shares such shareholder owns. With respect to the person being recommended, the shareholder should include the recommended person's name, age, business address, residence address, current principal occupation, five-year employment history with employer names and a description of the employer's business, particular experience, qualifications, attributes or skills that lead the shareholder to conclude that this person should serve as a director, disclosure of any involvement in legal proceedings bearing on the fitness of the candidate serve as a director, the number of shares beneficially owned by the recommended person, whether such person can read and understand basic financial statements, and any board membership currently held or held during the past five years.

The Nominating and Governance Committee will consider the attributes of the candidates and the needs of the Board and will review all candidates in the same manner, regardless of the source of the recommendation.

Other Corporate Governance Matters

Attendance at Annual Shareholders Meeting

The Company expects directors to attend the Annual Shareholders Meeting and has adopted a formal policy that all directors attend the Annual Meeting. The policy also provides that, in the event that a director is unable to attend the Annual Meeting, the director must send a written notice at least ten (10) days prior to such meeting, or as soon as practicable in the event of sudden or emergent circumstances. All of our Board members attended the 2012 Annual Shareholders Meeting.

Code of Ethical Business Conduct and Code of Ethics for Senior Financial Executives

The Board of Directors has adopted a Code of Ethical Business Conduct that applies to all employees of the Company (ratified with no substantive changes on December 11, 2012) and a Code of Ethics for Senior Financial Executives (amended February 19, 2013) (collectively, the "Codes"). The Codes are publicly available free of charge in the Investor Relations section of the Company's website at www.analysts.com . If any substantive amendments to the Codes are made or a waiver granted to the Company's executive officers, including any implicit waiver, from a provision of the Codes, the Company will disclose the nature of such amendments or waiver on the Company's website at www.analysts.com or in a report on Form 8-K.

Leadership Structure

Since 2003 the Company has had separate individuals serving as Chairman of the Board and as Chief Executive Officer. The CEO is responsible for setting the strategic direction of the Company and managing the day-to-day leadership and performance of the Company, while the Chairman provides guidance to the CEO, sets the agenda for meetings of the Board of Directors and presides over meetings of the full Board. The Company believes this structure strengthens the role of the Board in fulfilling its oversight responsibility and fiduciary duties to the Company's shareholders while recognizing the day-to-day management direction of the Company by its CEO, Brittany McKinney.

Oversight of Risk Management

The Company is exposed to a number of risks and has developed a process that (a) ranks and prioritizes identified risks, (b) assigns senior executives ownership of specific areas of risk who are charged with creating risk management action plans, (c) implements and monitors risk mitigation action plans, and (d) encourages internal audit, the Board of Directors and senior executive management to select possible areas of internal audits based on identified risks.

The Board of Directors believes that analysis and management of business risks should be integrated into the Company's strategic plans, and in furtherance of that view the Company and the Board of Directors have initiated a process intended to identify enterprise-wide business risks and provide oversight of those risks. The Board bears overall responsibility for risk management while the Audit Committee is primarily responsible for oversight of risks involving financial and financial reporting matters.

On behalf of the Board of Directors, the Audit Committee plays a key role in the oversight of the Company's risk management function in the areas of financial matters and financial reporting. In that regard, the CFO meets with the Audit Committee periodically to discuss the risks facing the Company, highlighting any new risks that may have arisen since they last met. The Audit Committee also reports to the Board of Directors on a regular basis to apprise the Board of its discussions with the CFO regarding the Company's Risk Management efforts, and the CFO reports to the Board of Directors regularly to apprise the Board of the Company's ongoing risk management efforts.

Communications with the Board

The Board provides a process for shareholders to send communications to the Board or any of the directors.

Shareholders may send written communications to the Board or any of the directors c/o Secretary, Analysts International Corporation, 7700 France Avenue South, Suite 200, Edina, MN 55435. All communications will be compiled by the Secretary of the Company and submitted to the Board or the individual directors on a periodic basis.

PROPOSAL NUMBER ONE

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

Nominees

The Bylaws of the Company provide that the Board of Directors shall consist of between five and nine persons. Article VI of the Company's Bylaws allows the Board of Directors to increase or decrease the number of directors above the minimum number of five (but within the range of five to nine).

The Nominating and Governance Committee recommended to the Board the following seven persons to be elected as directors of the Company for a term of one year, in all cases until their successors are elected and qualified and subject to prior death, resignation, retirement, disqualification or removal from office. Following is information about each nominee, including biographical data for at least the last five years and the particular experience, qualifications, attributes or skills that led the Board to conclude that this person should serve as a director for the Company. Should one or more of these nominees become unavailable to accept nomination or election as a director, the individuals named as proxies on the enclosed proxy card will vote the shares that they represent for the election of such other persons as the Board may recommend. Unless otherwise instructed by the shareholder, the proxy holders will vote the proxies received by them for the Company's nominees named below.

Composition

The Board of Directors believes it is important that the Board be comprised of members whose collective judgment, experience, qualifications, attributes and skills ensure that the Board will be able to fulfill its responsibilities that the Company is governed in a manner consistent with the interests of the shareholders of the Company and in compliance with applicable laws, regulations, rules and orders, and to satisfy its oversight responsibilities effectively.

The Nominating and Governance Committee identifies individuals qualified to become members of the Board and evaluates both existing members of the Board and candidates for service on the Board. The Committee then makes recommendations to the Board as to the slate of directors to be nominated for election at the annual shareholders' meeting.

When identifying and evaluating candidates for director, the Nominating and Governance Committee considers the general and specific qualifications, experience and characteristics which may have been approved by the Board or determined by the Committee from time to time including qualifications reflecting the individual's integrity, business ethics, strength of character, judgment, experience, competence as a member of the Board, availability and independence. Although the Company has no formal policy regarding diversity, the Nominating and Governance Committee considers diversity in a broad sense when evaluating a director nominee, taking into account various factors including but not limited to differences of viewpoint, professional experience, education, skill, race, gender and national origin.

When considering whether directors and nominees have the requisite judgment, experience, qualifications, attributes and skills, taken as a whole, to enable the Board of Directors to fulfill its responsibilities that the Company is governed in a manner consistent with the interests of the shareholders of the Company, the Nominating and Governance Committee and the Board of Directors focused primarily on the information discussed in each of the directors' individual biographies set forth below.

PROPOSAL NUMBER TWO

RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT
REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

The Audit Committee has selected Deloitte & Touche LLP as our independent registered public accounting firm to audit our financial statements for the fiscal year ending December 28, 2013, and to perform other appropriate audit-related services. While the Audit Committee is directly responsible for the appointment, retention, compensation, evaluation, termination and oversight of the work of the independent auditors, the Audit Committee is submitting the selection of Deloitte & Touche LLP for approval and ratification as a matter of best practices.

Management believes that neither Deloitte & Touche LLP nor any of its partners presently has or has held within the past three years any direct or indirect interest in the Company.

Approval of the ratification of the appointment of our independent registered public accounting firm requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the shares present and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting, where a quorum is present. Unless otherwise directed by the shareholders, shares represented by proxy at the meeting will be voted in favor of approval and ratification of the appointment of the firm of Deloitte & Touche LLP to audit our financial statements for the fiscal year ending December 28, 2013.

A representative of Deloitte & Touche LLP is expected to be present at the annual meeting and will be given an opportunity to make a statement if so desired and to respond to appropriate questions.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT THE
SHAREHOLDERS VOTE "FOR" THE PROPOSAL TO RATIFY THE
APPOINTMENT OF DELOITTE & TOUCHE LLP.

Audit Committee Pre-Approval Policy

The Audit Committee has established pre-approval policies and procedures in compliance with 17 C.F.R. 210.2-01(c)(7)(i) which include criteria for considering whether the provision of the services would be compatible with maintaining the independence of our registered public accounting firm and a process by which the Audit Committee may approve such audit and non-audit services.

PROPOSAL NUMBER THREE

ADVISORY VOTE ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

We are providing shareholders an advisory vote on executive compensation. This is a new item for our Annual Meeting in 2013. This vote is now required under Section 14A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act").

We have described our compensation philosophy in the "Corporate Governance" section of this proxy statement under the heading "Compensation Committee—Compensation Philosophy." Shareholders are urged to read this disclosure and the accompanying discussion regarding how our compensation policies and procedures implement our compensation philosophy, as well as the "Summary Compensation Table" and other related tables and narrative disclosure which describe the compensation of our chief executive officer and the other named executive officers of the Company set forth under "Executive Compensation" below. The Compensation Committee and the Board believe the policies and procedures articulated in this proxy statement are effective in implementing our compensation philosophy and in achieving our goals and that the compensation of our named executive officers reflects and supports these compensation policies and procedures.

Shareholders are being asked to vote on the following resolution:

RESOLVED, the shareholders of Analysts International Corporation approve, on an advisory basis, the compensation of the Company's named executive officers, as disclosed pursuant to Item 402 of Regulation S-K and related disclosures contained in the section of the proxy statement for the 2013 Annual Meeting of Shareholders captioned "Executive Compensation."

This advisory vote on executive compensation, commonly referred to as a "say-on-pay" advisory vote, is not binding on our Board. Although the final decision on the compensation and benefits of our executive officers remains with the Board and the Compensation Committee, the Board and the Compensation Committee will carefully consider and take into account the result of the vote when determining future executive compensation arrangements and when making future executive compensation decisions.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT THE SHAREHOLDERS VOTE "FOR" THE ADOPTION OF THE RESOLUTION SET FORTH IN THIS PROPOSAL NUMBER THREE.

PROPOSAL NUMBER FOUR

ADVISORY VOTE ON FREQUENCY OF ADVISORY VOTE
ON EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION

We are providing shareholders an advisory vote on the frequency with which our shareholders shall have the advisory "say-on-pay" vote on executive compensation as provided for in Proposal #3 above. This is also a new item for our Annual Meeting in 2013. This vote is now required under Section 14A of the Exchange Act.

Shareholders are able to choose to recommend that an advisory vote on executive compensation be held annually, every second year, or every third year. Although the vote on the frequency of future say-on-pay votes is not binding, the Board and the Compensation Committee greatly value the input of the Company's shareholders and will use the result of the vote as an important consideration when determining how frequently future say-on-pay votes will be held.

The Company is presenting this proposal which gives you, as a shareholder, the opportunity to express your view on the appropriate frequency of conducting future say-on-pay votes, by voting for one of the options described:

RESOLVED, that the shareholders approve, on an advisory basis, that Analysts International Corporation conduct an advisory vote on the compensation of its named executive officers, as described in its proxy statement for the relevant year, once every: [SELECT ONLY ONE OF THE OPTIONS LISTED BELOW]

o: 1 Year;
o: 2 Years;
o: 3 Years; or
o: Abstain.

As discussed under the caption "Executive Compensation," the Company's compensation philosophy is to provide compensation in a manner that maximizes long-term shareholder value. The Board has determined that an annual, or "1 Year," frequency for say-on-pay votes is the best approach for the Company. The Board believes that annual votes will provide the clearest and most useful feedback from shareholders to the Company and the Compensation Committee in this important area, and will confirm the Company's commitment to frequent and transparent communications with investors.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT THE SHAREHOLDERS SELECT AN ANNUAL FREQUENCY FOR CONDUCTING SHAREHOLDER SAY-ON-PAY VOTES BY VOTING FOR THE "1 YEAR" OPTION ON THIS PROPOSAL NUMBER FOUR.

Employment Agreements/Arrangements—Named Executive Officers Currently Employed by the Company

The information provided below relates to named executive officers who are currently employed by the Company.

Brittany B. McKinney

Term; Base Salary; Cash (Non-Equity) and Long-Term (Equity) Incentives

Ms. McKinney is the Company's President and CEO, effective March 1, 2011. Before that, she served as the Company's Interim President and CEO (from September 29, 2010 through the date of her appointment as President and CEO).

Prior to being appointed Interim President and CEO, Ms. McKinney was the Company's Senior Vice President, Central Region and, before that, Ms. McKinney served as AIC's Vice President of Corporate Development. Prior to joining AIC in November 2007, Ms. McKinney served as Director of Operations and Integration Program Manager at Fujitsu Consulting. Prior to its acquisition by Fujitsu in 2005, Ms. McKinney served as a director-level employee at BORN Information Services, Inc. where she contributed to corporate strategy and planning initiatives.

Ms. McKinney and the Company entered into an Employment Agreement (the "Agreement"), effective as of March 1, 2011, which provides for an initial term of one year, with automatic one-year renewals unless either party gives proper notice of nonrenewal. The Agreement was automatically renewed on March 1, 2013 (the anniversary of its effective date) as neither the Company nor Ms. McKinney provided written notice of non-renewal.

The Agreement also provides that the Board of Directors would nominate Ms. McKinney as a candidate for election as a director at the Company's 2011 Annual Meeting of Shareholders and that she would continue to serve as a member of the Board until termination of her employment, her resignation from Board, the Board's failure to nominate her for re-election (and the subsequent completion of her term as a member of the Board of Directors), her removal from the Board pursuant to Minnesota statutes, or her failure to be reelected to the Board by the Company's shareholders.

The Agreement provides that Ms. McKinney will receive base compensation of $325,000 per year and will be eligible to earn an annual cash incentive payment in the target amount of 50% of her annual base compensation for the year in which the bonus was earned, contingent

upon meeting certain individual and company performance objectives set by the Compensation Committee of the Company's Board of Directors (the "Committee") on an annual basis. The Agreement further provides that the Company will grant Ms. McKinney 50,000 stock options and 50,000 restricted stock awards simultaneously with the parties' execution of the Agreement. Additional information concerning these grants is set forth below under " The 2011 Equity Grants ."

2012 Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation

Ms. McKinney did not receive an annual incentive for services rendered during fiscal year 2012 as the Company did not achieve the targeted financial performance stated in the Company's 2012 Annual Management Incentive Plan (AMIP). (See "Annual Cash (Non-Equity) Incentive Compensation" below for further information on the AMIP.)

2011 Non-Equity Incentive Plan Compensation

Ms. McKinney was paid an annual incentive in the amount of $129,257 for services rendered during fiscal year 2011 for meeting certain Company performance measures during that year

Equity Grants

The 2012 Equity Grants

Effective March 15, 2012 the Board of Directors, acting on the recommendation of the Compensation Committee, granted Ms. McKinney options to acquire 16,250 shares of the Company's common stock at the closing price on the date of grant ($5.78 per share). One-quarter of the options vested immediately, and the remainder will vest ratably on an annual basis over the following three years. The 2012 options were granted under the Company's 2004 Equity Incentive Plan, which does not contain any provision which would automatically accelerate the vesting of the 2012 options upon a change in control. The 2004 Equity Incentive Plan does, however, permit the Board of Directors to provide, among other things, for the equitable acceleration of the exercisability of any outstanding options in the event of an acquisition of the Company through the sale of substantially all of the Company's assets and the consequent discontinuance of its business or through a merger, consolidation, exchange, reorganization, reclassification, extraordinary dividend, divestiture or liquidation of the Company.

Also effective March 15, 2012 the Company awarded Ms. McKinney 16,250 restricted stock units. One-quarter of the restricted stock unit award vested immediately and the remainder will vest ratably on an annual basis over the following three years. The 2012 restricted stock unit award was made under the Company's 2009 Equity Incentive Plan, and the Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement pursuant to which the 2012 restricted stock unit award was granted provides that in the event of a change of control (as defined in the 2009 Equity Incentive Plan), the 2012 restricted stock unit award will become fully vested and exercisable.

The 2011 Equity Grants

Effective March 1, 2011, in connection with her appointment as President and CEO and pursuant to the terms of her Employment Agreement, the Company

granted Ms. McKinney options to acquire 50,000 shares of the Company's common stock at the closing price on the date of grant ($4.40 per share). One-quarter of the options vested immediately, and the remainder will vest ratably on an annual basis over the following three years. The 2011 grant of options was made under the Company's 2009 Equity Incentive Plan, and the Incentive Stock Option Agreement pursuant to which the options were granted provides that in the event of a change of control (as defined in the 2009 Equity Incentive Plan), the 2011 options will become fully vested and exercisable.

Also effective March 1, 2011 (and also in connection with her appointment as President and CEO and pursuant to the terms of her Employment Agreement), the Company awarded Ms. McKinney 50,000 restricted stock units. One-quarter of the restricted stock unit award vested immediately and the remainder will vest ratably on an annual basis over the following three years. The 2011 restricted stock unit award was made under the Company's 2009 Equity Incentive Plan, and the Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement pursuant to which the 2011 restricted stock unit award was granted provides that in the event of a change of control (as defined in the 2009 Equity Incentive Plan), the 2011 restricted stock unit award will become fully vested and exercisable.

Deferred Compensation

Ms. McKinney is the only remaining participant in the Company's Restated SERP (nonqualified deferred compensation plan). Effective January 3, 2010, the Company discontinued all basic employer contributions under the Restated SERP. Existing SERP balances continue to receive interest contributions equal to the 10 year Treasury rate plus one to three percent as determined each year by the Board of Directors. The amounts of $472 and $674, incurred by the Company in fiscal years 2012 and 2011 respectively, are included in the "All Other Compensation" column for Ms. McKinney's compensation in the Summary Compensation Table. No above-market interest was accrued by the Company in fiscal years 2012 and 2011.

Termination, Severance and Change of Control

Termination and Severance

Either the Company or Ms. McKinney may terminate the Agreement, and her employment, at any time.

In the event Ms. McKinney's employment is terminated by the Company without "Good Cause" (as defined in the Agreement) or by Ms. McKinney on the basis of a constructive termination without Cause (as defined in the Agreement), the Company will pay to Ms. McKinney a lump sum equal to her annual base salary then in effect and will also pay her an incentive compensation bonus for the then-current fiscal year, prorated over the portion of the fiscal year for which she was employed, to the extent accrued as of the date of termination without Cause, and reimburse her for medical insurance premium payments made under COBRA for a period of up to six months, following her execution (and non-revocation) of a general release of claims in form and substance acceptable to the Board of Directors.

Under the terms of the Agreement, the Company may at any time immediately terminate Ms. McKinney's employment for Good Cause. In the event of a termination for cause, the Company is required to

deliver a written notice to Ms. McKinney stating the basis for such cause but is not obligated to pay any form of severance or other compensation to Ms. McKinney.

Change of Control

Although Ms. McKinney's Employment Agreement does not itself provide change of control protections, she is a participant in the Analysts International Corporation Change in Control Severance Pay Plan described below.

Lynn L. Blake

Term; Base Salary; Cash (Non-Equity) and Long-Term (Equity) Incentives

Lynn L. Blake is the Company's Senior Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer, effective July 2, 2012. Prior to this appointment, since June 2007, Ms. Blake served as the Vice President of Finance and Chief Accounting Officer at Entegris, Inc., a publicly traded, $700 million global provider of products and materials used in advanced high-technology manufacturing. Before then, from February 2002 through June 2007, Ms. Blake served as Corporate Controller at MTS Systems Corporation, a publicly traded global manufacturing company.

On June 8, 2012, the Company and Ms. Blake entered into an Employment Agreement (the "Agreement") with an effective date of July 2, 2012, which provides that Ms. Blake will be employed as Senior Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer of the Company for an initial term of one year. Thereafter, the Agreement automatically renews for successive one-year renewal terms (each, a "Renewal Term") until the Company or Ms. Blake provides notice of non-renewal in writing to the other at least 30 days prior to the applicable renewal date.

The Agreement provides that Ms. Blake will receive base compensation of $250,000 per year and, during any Renewal Term, will be eligible to earn an annual cash incentive payment in an amount up to 50% of her annual base compensation for the year in which the bonus was earned, contingent upon meeting certain individual and company performance objectives set by the Compensation Committee of the Company's Board of Directors (the "Committee") on an annual basis. For the Company's fiscal year 2012, which ended on December 29, 2012, the Agreement provides that Ms. Blake will be eligible to receive a bonus in an amount to be established by the Compensation Committee based on the achievement of certain performance goals to be mutually agreed within 90 days after the effective date of July 2, 2012.

The Agreement additionally provides that Ms. Blake will be granted 25,000 stock options and awarded 25,000 restricted stock units under the Company's 2004 Equity Incentive Plan and 2009 Equity Incentive Plan, respectively. Additional information concerning these grants is set forth below under " The 2012 Equity Grants ."

2012 Bonus

Ms. Blake was paid a discretionary bonus for services rendered during fiscal year 2012 in the amount of $75,000, based on the achievement of certain performance goals, as approved and ratified by the Compensation Committee.

One-quarter of the options vested immediately, and the remainder will vest ratably on an annual basis over the following three years. The 2012 options were granted under the Company's 2004 Equity Incentive Plan, which does not contain any provision which would automatically accelerate the vesting of the 2012 options upon a change in control. The 2004 Equity Incentive Plan does, however, permit the Board of Directors to provide, among other things, for the equitable acceleration of the exercisability of any outstanding options in the event of an acquisition of the Company through the sale of substantially all of the Company's assets and the consequent discontinuance of its business or through a merger, consolidation, exchange, reorganization, reclassification, extraordinary dividend, divestiture or liquidation of the Company.

Also effective July 2, 2012 (and also in connection with her appointment as Senior Vice President, Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer and pursuant to the terms of her Employment Agreement), the Company awarded Ms. Blake 25,000 restricted stock units. One-quarter of the restricted stock unit award vested immediately and the remainder will vest ratably on an annual basis over the following three years. The 2012 restricted stock unit award was made under the Company's 2009 Equity Incentive Plan, and the Restricted Stock Unit Award Agreement pursuant to which the 2012 restricted stock unit award was granted provides that in the event of a change of control (as defined in the 2009 Equity Incentive Plan), the 2012 restricted stock unit award will become fully vested and exercisable.

Termination, Severance and Change of Control

Termination and Severance

Notwithstanding the term of the Agreement, either party has the right to terminate the Agreement and Ms. Blake's employment at any time. In the event Ms. Blake's employment is terminated by the Company during the original term or any renewal term without "Cause" (as defined in the Agreement), the Company will pay severance to Ms. Blake by continuing to pay her base compensation for six months after any such termination (which increases to 12 months if Ms. Blake has completed three years of service under the Agreement), provided that she first signs all appropriate paperwork, including providing a full release (not later revoked within the statutory period) of all claims against the Company, in form and substance acceptable to the Company. If the Company terminates Ms. Blake's employment for Cause, no severance is payable and the Company will have no further obligation or liability to her. If the Company elects not to renew the Agreement beyond expiration of the then-current term, the Company will pay severance to Ms. Blake by continuing to pay her base compensation for four (4) months after the Agreement expires, provided that she first signs all appropriate paperwork, including providing a full release (not later revoked within the statutory period) of all claims against the

Company, in form and substance acceptable to the Company.

Change of Control

Although Ms. Blake's Employment Agreement does not itself provide change of control protections, she is a participant in the Analysts International Corporation Change in Control Severance Pay Plan described below.

Change in Control Severance Pay Plan

Certain senior executives are covered by the Analysts International Corporation Change in Control Severance Pay Plan (the "Plan"). The purpose of the Plan, which took effect on March 1, 2011, is to provide benefits to certain "qualified employees" whose employment is terminated in connection with a "Change of Control" (as defined in the Plan). For purposes of the Plan, the term "qualified employee" means any individual who (i) is either (a) an officer of the Company in the position of Senior Vice President or above whose employment has been approved by the Board or the Compensation Committee of the Board (the "Committee"), or (b) a management level or other highly compensated employee of the Company who is selected as a "qualified employee" by the Board or the Committee; (ii) is not a party to a separate written agreement with the Company which expressly provides that the individual is not eligible to participate in the Plan; and (iii) is not a party to a separate written agreement with the Company that provides severance benefits to the individual in the event of a Change in Control.

A participant in the Plan will be entitled to certain severance payments and benefits if (i) the participant's employment is terminated by the Company without "Cause" or by the participant for "Good Reason" (as such terms are defined in the Plan), and (ii) such termination occurs either (a) within the period beginning on the date of a change in control and ending on the last day of the twelfth month that begins after the month in which the change in control occurs, or (b) prior to a change in control if the termination occurs in connection with the change in control.

If terminated or separated from the Company under the circumstances set forth above, a participant will be entitled to a lump sum payment equal to the participant's annual base salary then in effect. In addition, following such termination or separation, all non-competition agreements (or non-competition provisions within other agreements) restricting the activities of the participant will be null and void and of no further force and effect.

Severance Arrangements with Named Executive Officers Who Are No Longer Employed by the Company

The information below provides disclosures as to the severance and other post-employment arrangements with one named executive officer who is no longer employed by the Company. Although Mr. Wolff is no longer employed by the Company, he was one of our two most highly compensated executive officers other than the CEO during the last completed fiscal year (2012), which is why information about his compensation is included in this Proxy Statement.

William R. Wolff (former Senior Vice President, Chief Financial Officer)

William R. Wolff was the Company's Senior Vice President, Chief Financial Officer from August 8, 2011 until June 12,

2012, when he resigned from his employment effective as of the close of business on June 29, 2012.

On June 12, 2012, the Company entered into a Separation Agreement and Release of Claims with Mr. Wolff (the "Separation Agreement"). The Separation Agreement provided, among other things, that as severance compensation Mr. Wolff would continue to receive his regular base salary of $230,000 per annum through (and ending on) December 7, 2012, and would receive reimbursement of his medical insurance premium payments made under the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act ("COBRA") through December 31, 2012 (not to exceed $1,800 per month). The Separation Agreement included a release of all claims arising out of or relating to Mr. Wolff's employment with the Company or the termination of that employment. In accordance with the requirements of Minnesota law, the Separation Agreement provided that Mr. Wolff had the right to revoke the release of claims contained in the agreement within 15 calendar days after signing the agreement, and also provided for a concurrent revocation period of seven calendar days after signing the agreement under the federal Age Discrimination in Employment Act.

Status of Equity Grants

Effective March 15, 2012 the Board of Directors, acting on the recommendation of the Compensation Committee, granted Mr. Wolff options to acquire 7,500 shares of the Company's common stock at the closing price on the date of grant ($5.78 per share). One-quarter of the options vested immediately, and the remainder were to vest ratably on an annual basis over the following three years. Also effective March 15, 2012 the Company awarded Mr. Wolff 7,500 restricted stock units. One-quarter of the restricted stock unit award vested immediately and the remainder were to vest ratably on an annual basis over the following three years.

Effective August 9, 2011, in connection with his appointment as Senior Vice President, Chief Financial Officer, the Board of Directors approved the grant to Mr. Wolff of options to acquire 20,000 shares of the Company's common stock at the closing price on the date of the grant ($3.10 per share). One-quarter of the options vested immediately, and the remainder were to vest ratably on an annual basis over the following three years. Also effective August 9, 2011 the Company awarded Mr. Wolff 20,000 restricted stock units. One-quarter of the restricted stock unit award vested immediately and the remainder were to vest ratably on an annual basis over the following three years.

In accordance with the provisions of the applicable Incentive Stock Option and Restricted Stock Unit Agreements, all rights to future vesting under his option awards and all unvested restricted stock units were forfeited upon his resignation and all stock options held by Mr. Wolff terminated in their entirety on the three-month anniversary of such resignation.

Pursuant to the applicable Restricted Stock Unit Agreements, in fiscal year 2012 Mr. Wolff was issued 1,875 shares of Company Common Stock and in fiscal year 2011 he was issued 5,000 shares of Company Common Stock.

Annual Cash (Non-Equity) Incentive Compensation

During fiscal year 2011 the Compensation Committee approved the Company's 2012 Annual Management Incentive Plan

(AMIP). In general, the AMIP reflects the view of the Compensation Committee, shared by the Board, that executive compensation arrangements should be structured to reflect rewards for achievement of goals that are consistent with the creation of shareholder value.

Fiscal Year 2012

The Company did not achieve the targeted financial performance stated in the AMIP for fiscal year 2012 and accordingly no bonuses were paid pursuant to the AMIP.

Fiscal Year 2011

Based on Company performance during fiscal year 2011, the Compensation Committee recommended, and the Board of Directors approved, discretionary incentive compensation for fiscal year 2011.

Equity Incentive Compensation

Under the Company's equity incentive plans, the Compensation Committee has made stock option grants and/or restricted stock awards from time to time to named executives and other employees in connection with entering into an employment agreement or in recognition of individual contributions to our performance. These plans also allow the Company to continue to make stock option grants and award restricted stock to attract and maintain a talented management team for the benefit of our shareholders.

When making such stock option grants or when issuing restricted stock or restricted stock unit awards, the Compensation Committee takes into account:

•: the employee's performance and contribution to our financial performance and operational objectives;
•: the number and value of shares awarded and options granted previously to the employee;
•: the number of shares available for grant under our plans;
•: the value of the shares underlying stock options and restricted stock awards; and
•: the overall net stock dilution created by the stock option grants and restricted stock awards.

Tax and Accounting Implications

Deductibility of Executive Compensation

Section 162(m) limits deductions for certain executive compensation in excess of $1,000,000 in any given year. Since corporate objectives may not always be consistent with the requirements for full deductibility, our Compensation Committee is prepared, if it deems appropriate, to enter into compensation arrangements under which payments may not be deductible under section 162(m). The Committee will consider deductibility of executive compensation, but deductibility will not be the sole factor used by the Committee in ascertaining appropriate levels or modes of compensation. When it is feasible to do so, we will seek to maximize the deductibility for tax purposes of all elements of compensation under section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code. Certain types of compensation are deductible only if performance criteria are specified in detail and payments are contingent upon shareholder approval of the compensation arrangement.

Narrative Disclosure of Director Compensation

Cash Compensation

Pursuant to a resolution of the Board of Directors adopted in December 2011, during fiscal year 2012 each of our independent directors (other than the Chair) was paid an annual retainer of $55,000, plus expenses, and the Chair was paid an annual retainer of $95,000, plus expenses. Also, the chair of the Nominating and Governance Committee was paid an additional $5,000 per year; the chair of the Compensation Committee was paid an additional $7,500; and the chair of the Audit Committee was paid an additional $10,000 per year. All such amounts were paid quarterly.

No director is paid a separate fee for attending Board or Committee meetings. In accordance with Company policies, employee and related-person directors did not receive compensation for their service as directors during 2012.

Equity Compensation

A portion of our directors' annual compensation includes annual stock option grants and stock awards. On the first business day after the first of each calendar year, the Chair of the Board is granted an option to purchase 2,400 shares of our common stock while the other independent directors are granted options to purchase 1,600 shares of our common stock. The exercise price of the options is the fair market value of our common stock at the close of trading on the date of grant. Each option has a term of ten years and becomes exercisable in four equal installments commencing on the first anniversary of the date of grant and continuing for the three successive anniversaries thereafter. In the event of the retirement (as defined in the Plan), disability or death of an independent director, all options granted to such director under the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan (as amended May 25, 2006) are immediately exercisable. In addition, on the first business day of each calendar year, the Chair of the Board receives an equity grant of 400 shares of our common stock and the other independent directors receive 200 shares of common issued from the 2004 Equity Incentive Plan (as amended May 25, 2006).

Indemnification

Our Bylaws instruct us to indemnify our directors and officers to the fullest extent to which officers and directors may be indemnified under Minnesota corporate law.

Report of the Audit Committee

The role of the Audit Committee is to oversee the Company's financial reporting process. Management is responsible for the Company's financial statements and reporting process, including the Company's systems of internal controls. The Company's independent registered public accounting firm is responsible for auditing the Company's financial statements and expressing an opinion as to their conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. A copy of the Audit Committee Charter, which was revised and adopted by the Company's Board of Directors on November 4, 2009 and further amended on November 1, 2011, describes the role of the Audit Committee in overseeing the Company's financial reporting process. The Charter is available free of charge on the Company's Investor Relations page of its website.

In performing its functions, the Audit Committee reports that:

•: The Committee met with the Company's independent registered public accounting firm, with and without management present, to discuss the overall scope and plans for their audit, the results of their examination, their evaluation of the Company's internal controls, and the overall quality of the Company's financial reporting;
•: The Committee reviewed and discussed with management the audited financial statements included in the Company's Annual Report, management's representations regarding the financial statements and the Company's internal controls;
•: The Committee discussed with the Company's independent registered public accounting firm the matters required to be discussed by Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61 (Codification of Statements on Auditing Standards AU § 380), as modified, amended or supplemented;
•: The Committee received the written disclosures and the letter from the Company's independent registered public accounting firm required by applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding the independent accountant's communications with the Committee concerning independence, and discussed with them matters relating to their independence;
•: The Committee received information from management and the independent registered public accounting firm with respect to non-audit services provided by the Company's independent registered public accounting firm, and considered whether the provision of those services is compatible with maintaining the auditors' independence; and
•: The individual Committee members and the Committee as a whole comply with the independence requirements set forth in applicable regulations.

Based upon its reviews and discussions with the independent registered public accounting firm and management, the Audit Committee has recommended to the Board of Directors that the audited financial statements be included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2012 for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

OTHER INFORMATION

Other Business

Management is not aware of any other items of business which will be presented for shareholder action at the Annual Meeting. Should any other matters properly come before the meeting for action by shareholders, the shares represented by proxies will be voted in accordance with the judgment of the persons voting the proxies.

2014 Shareholder Proposals

The proxy rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission permit shareholders of a company, after timely notice to the company, to present proposals for shareholder action in the company's Proxy Statement where such proposals are consistent with applicable law, pertain to matters appropriate for shareholder action and are not properly omitted by company action in accordance with the proxy rules. Shareholder proposals (other than director nominations) that are submitted for inclusion in our Proxy Statement for our 2014 annual meeting of shareholders must follow the procedures set forth in Rule 14a-8 promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and our bylaws. To be timely under Rule 14a-8, such proposals must be received by us at our main headquarters office not later than December 17, 2013.

Pursuant to our bylaws, in order for any other proposal to be properly brought before the next annual meeting by a shareholder, including a nominee for director to be considered at the next annual meeting, a shareholder must give written notice of such shareholder's intent to bring a matter before the annual meeting, or nominate the director, in a timely manner. To be timely under our bylaws, generally speaking the notice must be given by such shareholder to the Company's Secretary not less than 120 days before the first anniversary of the date of the preceding year's annual meeting of shareholders. As set forth in greater detail in our bylaws, each such notice must contain certain information with respect to the shareholder who intends to bring such matters before the meeting and the item of business the shareholder proposes to bring before the meeting. Shareholders are advised to review our bylaws carefully regarding the requirements for proposals and director nominations. Under Article III, Sections 5 and 6 of the Company's By-Laws, as amended, shareholder proposals received after January 21, 2014 will not be considered.

SECTION 16(a) BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP REPORTING COMPLIANCE

Section 16(a) of the 1934 Act requires the Company's directors, and executive officers, and persons who beneficially own more than ten percent (10%) of the Company's Common Stock, to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("Commission") initial reports of beneficial ownership and reports of changes in beneficial ownership of common shares of the Company. Specific due dates for those reports have been established, and the Company is required to disclose in this Proxy Statement any failure to file by those due dates during fiscal 2012. Directors, officers and greater than ten percent shareholders are required by the regulations of the Commission to furnish the Company with copies of all Section 16(a) reports they file. To the Company's knowledge, based solely on review of the copies of such reports furnished to the Company, or written representations that no other reports were required, the Company believes that during the fiscal year ended December 29, 2012, all Form 3, Form 4 and Form 5 filing requirements were met for fiscal year 2012.

ANNUAL REPORT/FORM 10-K
