Dear Shareholder:

You are cordially invited to attend a special meeting of the holders of shares of Computer Horizons Corp., a New York corporation, common stock, par value $.10 per share, to be held on February 14, 2007, at 10:00 a.m. local time, at the offices of Olshan Grundman, Frome Rosenzweig & Wolosky LLP, Park Avenue Tower, 65 East 55th Street, New York, New York 10022.

At the special meeting, you will be asked to consider and vote upon several proposals, including a proposal to approve the sale by us of substantially all of the assets of our Chimes, Inc. subsidiary (Proposal No. 1 in the proxy statement), a proposal to approve the sale by us of substantially all of the assets of our Commercial Services business (Proposal No. 2 in the proxy statement), and a proposal to approve and adopt a plan of complete liquidation and dissolution and to approve the transactions contemplated thereby pursuant to which our company will be dissolved and liquidated (Proposal No. 3 in the proxy statement).

As discussed in more detail in the accompanying proxy statement, in the event we receive shareholder approval of and consummate both asset sales, we estimate that the aggregate amount of distributions to our shareholders may be in the range of $4.68 to $4.81 per share of Computer Horizons common stock and that an initial distribution to shareholders in the range of $3.80 to $4.00 per share would be made by the end of the first quarter of 2007. However, uncertainties as to the precise net value of our assets and the ultimate amount of our liabilities make it impossible to predict with certainty the actual net amount that will ultimately be available for distribution to our shareholders or the timing of any such distribution.

Details of the proposals are set forth in the enclosed proxy statement, which you are urged to read carefully. The Board of Directors believes that the proposals are in our and your best interests. In arriving at its decision to recommend the proposals, the Board of Directors carefully reviewed and considered the terms and conditions of the proposals and the factors described in the enclosed proxy statement.

Your Board of Directors has unanimously approved each of the proposals and recommends that the holders of common stock vote FOR the approval of each of the proposals.

The Board of Directors has fixed December 29, 2006 as the record date for the special meeting. Only shareholders of record at the close of business on that date will receive notice of and be entitled to vote at the special meeting. All shareholders are cordially invited to attend the special meeting.

If you attend the special meeting, you may revoke your proxy and vote in person if you wish, even if you have previously returned your proxy card. Simply attending the special meeting, however, will not revoke your proxy; you must vote at the special meeting. If you do not attend the special meeting, you may still revoke your proxy at any time prior to the special meeting by providing a later dated proxy or by providing written notice of your revocation to our company's Secretary. Your prompt cooperation will be greatly appreciated.

The notice and proxy statement are first being mailed to our shareholders on or about January 5, 2007.

In this proxy statement, the terms "Computer Horizons," "Company," "CHC," "we," "our," "ours," and "us" refer to Computer Horizons Corp., a New York corporation, and its subsidiaries.

References to the Asset Sales are to the Chimes Asset Sale and the Commercial Services Asset Sale, collectively, each of which are described below. References to the Board or the Board of Directors are to the board of directors of Computer Horizons. Shareholders are urged to review carefully this proxy statement and the Annexes hereto in its entirety.

The Chimes Asset Sale (Proposal No. 1)

The Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement (See page 19)

Axium International, Inc., or Axium, a Delaware corporation, Diversity MSP, Inc., or Diversity MSP, a California corporation, and a subsidiary of Axium, Chimes and Computer Horizons entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement dated as of October 18, 2006 pursuant to which we agreed to sell to Diversity MSP substantially all of the assets of our Chimes Business, excluding operating cash and marketable securities, for a purchase price of $80,000,000 in cash. We refer to this transaction and this Asset Purchase Agreement in this proxy statement as the Chimes Asset Sale and the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement, respectively.

Representations and Warranties (See page 20)

The Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement contains customary representations and warranties of the parties relating to, among other things, their authority to enter into the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement and, in the case of Computer Horizons, various aspects of the Chimes Business.

Certain Covenants (See page 21)

The Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement contains customary covenants of the parties, including agreements by us to conduct the Chimes Business in the ordinary course in accordance with past practices and to refrain from certain actions between the time of signing the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement and the closing of the Chimes Asset Sale, to use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the requisite approval of our shareholders, and to provide certain transition services to Diversity MSP pursuant to a separate transition services agreement for up to ninety days after the closing.

Superior Offer (See page 21)

The Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement provides that the our Board may at any time prior to the Chimes Asset Sale closing, withdraw or modify its approval or recommendation of the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement or the Chimes Asset Sale or approve or recommend a superior offer to purchase the Chimes Business if our Board determines in good faith that such offer constitutes a superior offer and determines that the withdrawal or modification of its approval or recommendation of the Chimes Asset Sale is required to comply with the fiduciary duties of the Board.

Indemnification (See page 22)

The Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement provides that we, on the one hand, and Axium and Diversity MSP, on the other hand, will indemnify each other for any losses incurred by, among other things, breaches of representations, warranties and covenants, subject to specified dollar and time limitations.

Conditions to Closing (See page 23)

The obligations of the parties to consummate the Chimes Asset Sale are subject to certain customary closing conditions, including, among other things, that the Chimes Asset Sale has been approved by our shareholders and that the waiting period under Federal antitrust rules has terminated.

Termination (See page 23)

The Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement can be terminated:

•: by mutual agreement of the parties;
•: by Diversity MSP or us (assuming the terminating party is not in default thereunder) if the Chimes Asset Sale has not been consummated by March 18, 2007 or such earlier date as the parties might agree, or if there is a court order prohibiting the Chimes Asset Sale;
•: by Diversity MSP or us if a counterparty has breached the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement and the breach is not cured within five business days after notice; and
•: by us if our Board of Directors withdraws its approval of the Chimes Asset Sale in the event we receive a superior proposal to acquire our Chimes Business and Diversity MSP does not within a specified period make an offer that our Board of Directors determines to be at least as favorable to our shareholders as such superior offer.

Termination Payment and Expenses (See page 24)

If we terminate the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement following our receipt of a superior offer as described above, we are obligated to pay a $4,000,000 termination payment to Diversity MSP.

All parties to the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement have agreed that each party will pay its own expenses, but that the aggregate filing fees under Federal antitrust laws will be split equally and that if the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement is terminated by either side in the event of a breach by the other, the breaching party will pay the other party's expenses up to a maximum amount of $250,000.

Regulatory Approvals (See page 24)

We believe that no state or Federal regulatory approval is required in connection with the Chimes Asset Sale other than the expiration or termination of the waiting period under Federal antitrust laws.

Appraisal Rights in Respect of the Asset Sales (See page 24)

We believe each of the Asset Sales constitutes the sale of all or substantially all of our assets within the meaning of the New York Business Corporation Law. Accordingly, the appraisal rights under New York law discussed herein and set forth in Annex F apply. Shareholders who follow the procedures set forth in Sections 623 and 910 of the New York Business Corporation Law, or the Appraisal Statute, will be entitled to have their common stock appraised by a New York State Court and to receive payment of the "fair value" of such shares as determined by such court. The Appraisal Statute is reprinted in its entirety as Annex F to this proxy statement. If you wish to exercise such appraisal rights or to preserve the right to do so, you should review the discussion on page 25 of this proxy statement and Annex F carefully because failure to timely and properly comply with the procedures specified will

result in the loss of your dissenters' appraisal rights under the New York Business Corporation Law. Each party in any appraisal proceeding will bear its own costs and expenses, including the fees of counsel and any experts employed by it, unless the court determines otherwise.

Consummation of Chimes Asset Sale Not Conditioned on Diversity MSP Obtaining Financing (See page 27)

We understand that the total amount of funds required by Diversity MSP to pay the purchase price under the Chimes Asset Sale, and to pay related fees and expenses, is estimated to be approximately $80.5 million. Diversity MSP has indicated that it plans to fund this through its working capital and borrowings. Diversity MSP has received a financing commitment letter with respect to $62 million of debt financing with respect to the Chimes Asset Sale. The foregoing estimate does not take into account the results of the exercise by shareholders of dissenters' rights under New York law which may result in their receipt of amounts less than, more than or equal to the amount which may otherwise be paid to them in the event the Chimes Asset Sale is consummated.

Accounting Treatment (See page 27)

We will record the Chimes Asset Sale in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. Upon completion of the disposition we will recognize a financial reporting gain equal to the net proceeds (sum of purchase price less expenses of the sale) less the book value of the assets and liabilities sold.

Certain Federal Income Tax Consequences (See page 27)

The Chimes Asset Sale will be a taxable transaction for us. We will realize gain or loss measured by the difference between the proceeds received by us and our affiliates on such sale and our (or our affiliate's) tax basis in the assets sold. For purposes of calculating gain or loss, the proceeds received by us and our affiliates will include the cash we received, the amount of our indebtedness that is cancelled or assumed, and any other consideration we receive for our assets. It is anticipated that we will have sufficient losses (including net operating loss carryforwards) to offset the gain expected to be realized from the Chimes Asset Sale for regular Federal income tax purposes, subjecting us only to Federal alternative minimum tax.

We and/or our affiliates may be subject to state income taxes to the extent that gains exceed losses for state tax law purposes, but do not anticipate that such taxes, if any, will be significant. We and/or our affiliates may be subject to foreign taxes with respect to this transaction, but do not anticipate that such taxes, if any, will be significant.

We do not expect that the Chimes Asset Sale will result in any Federal income tax consequences to our shareholders.

Background of the Chimes Asset Sale (See page 28)

The current members of the Board of Directors and current senior executive officers of Computer Horizons took office in October 2005, as the result of a proxy contest led by shareholders of Computer Horizons who believed that the business decisions of Computer Horizons' prior directors and management were not maximizing the value of Computer Horizons. Immediately after taking office, the new Board and management began exploring strategic alternatives for Computer Horizons and its business units and requested Jefferies Broadview, a division of Jefferies & Company, Inc., or Jefferies Broadview, which had been retained previously by Computer Horizons, to continue as financial advisor in that effort. With the Board's frequent and extensive consultation and guidance throughout a process extending many months, management and Jefferies Broadview considered a number of strategic alternatives for Computer Horizons and its businesses. This included an analysis of the operating

history and prospects for growth of Computer Horizons as a whole and each business unit separately, including the Chimes Business.

In the course of the review, with the assistance of Jefferies Broadview, we contacted numerous parties that we believed might have an interest in entering into a strategic transaction to purchase our Chimes Business, either as part of a purchase of Computer Horizons as a whole or separately. As a result of these contacts, we received a number of expressions of interest in purchasing our Chimes Business. In response to these expressions of interest, our Board sent a letter to the interested parties, together with a proposed form of asset purchase agreement which we would be prepared to sign if a transaction were agreed to, and requested the recipients to make offers for our Chimes Business and give their comments, if any, to such form of asset purchase agreement. In response to this solicitation two interested parties, including Axium, submitted final bids and tendered revised asset purchase agreements. After considerable negotiation with Axium and the other bidder, we determined that a sale of our Chimes Business in accordance with the Chimes Asset Sale is in the best interests of Computer Horizons and our shareholders, and approved the Chimes Asset Sale and the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement.

Reasons for the Chimes Asset Sale (See page 31)

We considered the risks and challenges facing our Chimes Business in the future as compared with the opportunities available to us from the continued operation of our Chimes Business and concluded that sale of our Chimes Business in accordance with the terms of the Chimes Asset Sale is the best alternative for maximizing value to our shareholders.

In addition, we have determined that the Chimes Asset Sale represents an opportunity to sell our Chimes Business at an attractive valuation given current market conditions. In reaching this decision, we considered the terms of the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement, the fact that the Chimes Asset Sale represents the best offer available after diligent efforts by us and Jefferies Broadview to secure additional offers, the absence of credible expressions of interest in purchasing Computer Horizons as a whole and a fairness opinion delivered to the Board by Jefferies Broadview, described below. In light of the foregoing, we determined that, in our judgment, our entry into the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement and the consummation of the Chimes Asset Sale is fair to and in the best interests of Computer Horizons and our shareholders.

Opinion of Financial Advisor to the Board of Directors (See page 31)

On October 13, 2006, Jefferies Broadview rendered its oral opinion to our Board of Directors with respect to the Chimes Asset Sale, and subsequently confirmed in writing that, as of October 13, 2006, based upon and subject to certain assumptions, qualifications, limitations and factors described in the Jefferies Broadview opinion, the $80,000,000 purchase price to be received by Computer Horizons in the Chimes Asset Sale was fair, from a financial point of view, to Computer Horizons.

The opinion of Jefferies Broadview is addressed solely to our Board of Directors for our benefit and use, is directed only to the consideration to be paid in the Chimes Asset Sale and does not constitute a recommendation to our Board of Directors or you as to how to vote in connection with the Chimes Asset Sale or any other matter. The opinion of Jefferies Broadview does not address our underlying business decision to pursue the Chimes Asset Sale, the relative merits of the Chimes Asset Sale as compared to any alternative business strategies that might exist for us, the financing of the Chimes Asset Sale or the effects of any other asset sale in which we might engage. The full text of the opinion of Jefferies Broadview, dated October 13, 2006, with respect to the Chimes Asset Sale, which sets forth the procedures followed, limitations on the review undertaken, matters considered and assumptions made in connection with such opinion, is attached as Annex B to this proxy statement and is described more fully under "The Chimes Asset Sale (Proposal No. 1)—Opinion of Financial Advisor

to the Board of Directors" beginning on page 31 of this proxy statement. We recommend that you read the opinion carefully in its entirety.

Effect of the Asset Sales and the Plan of Complete Liquidation and Dissolution on Computer Horizons and Our Shareholders (See page 37)

If shareholder approval is obtained to consummate only one of the Asset Sales we will seek to complete such Asset Sale. In the event shareholder approval is obtained to consummate both Asset Sales we will seek to complete both Asset Sales. Following the completion of one or both Asset Sales, it is the Board's intention to distribute a substantial portion of the net proceeds received by Computer Horizons as a result of any Asset Sale that has been consummated, as promptly as practicable after the closing thereof. In the event we receive shareholder approval to consummate either or both Asset Sales, the Board currently expects the closing of each such Asset Sale to occur on or promptly after the date of the Special Meeting, which is currently scheduled for February 14, 2007, provided all conditions to closing are satisfied or waived.

In the event we receive shareholder approval of and consummate both Asset Sales, we estimate that the aggregate amount of distributions to shareholders may be in the range of $4.68 to $4.81 per share of the Company's Common Stock. Assuming the Special Meeting is held as scheduled on February 14, 2007 and both Asset Sales are consummated at substantially the same time, we currently expect that an initial distribution to shareholders would be made by the end of the first quarter of 2007 in the range of $3.80 to $4.00 per share of the Company's Common Stock and that one or more further distributions would be made thereafter. If both Asset Sales are approved by the shareholders, but they are not consummated at substantially the same time, the Board will consider the anticipated length of time between the two closings and will exercise its discretion in determining whether to await the consummation of both Asset Sales before making an initial distribution to shareholders.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, uncertainties as to the precise net value of our assets and the ultimate amount of our liabilities make it impossible to predict with certainty the aggregate net amounts that will ultimately be available for distribution to shareholders or the timing of any such distribution. Such amount and timing will depend on a number of factors, several of which cannot be determined at this time, including:

•: The ultimate amount of our known, unknown and contingent debts and liabilities;
•: The fees and expenses incurred by us in the liquidation of our assets and the dissolution of our company; and
•: Whether the purchasers in the Asset Sales meet their obligations to perform and discharge the Computer Horizons obligations and liabilities assumed by them.

As a result, the amount of cash remaining following completion of our liquidation and dissolution could vary significantly from our current estimates.

Assuming the proposed plan of complete liquidation and dissolution is approved by our shareholders and implemented by the Board of Directors, we will pursue those steps necessary to wind down and liquidate any remaining assets and operations in accordance with the plan of complete liquidation and dissolution and, after paying or making provision for all of our liabilities, distribute our remaining assets to our shareholders. In order to provide for contingent liabilities which cannot be determined until the expiry of statutory and contractual time limits, Computer Horizons expects that it would make such distributions of assets over a course of time, rather than in one single distribution.

laws. Upon delisting there may no longer be a public market for our common stock and upon deregistration our shareholders will no longer be entitled to receive annual reports, quarterly reports, current reports or other similar information from us under the federal securities laws. However, subsequent to any such deregistration, we and/or any liquidating trust to which our assets may be transferred may make financial information available to shareholders or holders of interests in any such trust, as the case may be, through press releases or other appropriate means, in the discretion of the Board or the trustees of any such trust.

If we fail to obtain shareholder approval for or to consummate both Asset Sales, then the Board of Directors will not seek to dissolve Computer Horizons and liquidate its assets. In such event, the Board will consider all strategic alternatives available to Computer Horizons and its prospects at such time, including the continued operation of Computer Horizons or the possible entry into a strategic transaction with respect to either or both of the operating divisions or Computer Horizons as a whole at a later time, but there can be no assurance that Computer Horizons would succeed in its efforts to continue to successfully conduct its business or undertake any other strategic transaction.

If we fail to obtain shareholder approval for or to consummate one of the Asset Sales while the other Asset Sale receives shareholder approval, then the Board of Directors will seek to consummate the Asset Sale which has received shareholder approval and will not at such time seek to dissolve Computer Horizons and liquidate its assets. Following the successful consummation of a single Asset Sale, the Board of Directors will continue to consider our strategic alternatives with respect to its other operating division, including the possible sale of that division at a later time, and the Board will consider alternatives for making available to our shareholders all or a substantial portion of the net proceeds of the Asset Sale that is consummated (after transaction costs and other appropriate reserves) as promptly as practicable, giving due consideration to tax and economic efficiencies. Such a distribution of proceeds may be in the form of a dividend, a return of capital or a self tender offer among other alternatives and is expected also to include net proceeds from the recent sale of our subsidiary, RGII Technologies, Inc., or RGII.

If shareholder approval is obtained to consummate both Asset Sales but the plan of complete liquidation and dissolution is not approved by shareholders or the Board of Directors fails to implement it, then Computer Horizons expects that it will become a "shell" corporation with cash assets and no operating business while other potential alternatives are evaluated.

Required Vote (See Page 39)

All holders of Computer Horizons' common stock as of the record date are entitled to vote on Proposal No. 1. The affirmative vote of the holders of two-thirds of the votes of all outstanding shares entitled to vote thereon is required to approve and adopt the Chimes Asset Sale and Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement. Abstentions and broker "non-votes" will have the same effect as votes against Proposal No. 1.

Recommendation of our Board of Directors

Our Board of Directors has concluded unanimously that the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement and the Chimes Asset Sale are in the best interests of our shareholders and recommends that you approve the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement and the Chimes Asset Sale and that you vote FOR the approval of Proposal No. 1.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE "FOR" PROPOSAL NO. 1.

The Commercial Services Asset Sale (Proposal No. 2)

The Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement (See page 40)

Allegis Group Inc., a Maryland corporation (and which we sometimes refer to in this proxy statement as Allegis), TEKsystems, Inc., a Maryland corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of Allegis (and which we sometimes refer to in this proxy statement as TEKsystems), certain other affiliates of Allegis, Computer Horizons, and certain other of our subsidiaries, entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement, dated as of November 7, 2006, pursuant to which we have agreed to sell to TEKsystems and its affiliates substantially all of the assets of our Commercial Services Business, excluding cash and cash equivalents and approximately $7.7 million relating to a tax receivable owing from the Province of Quebec, for a purchase price of $57,000,000 in cash, subject to a post closing working capital adjustment. TEKsystems and its affiliates are also assuming certain specified liabilities related to the Commercial Services Business. We refer to this transaction and this Asset Purchase Agreement in this proxy statement as the Commercial Services Asset Sale and the Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement, respectively.

Representations and Warranties (See page 43)

The Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement contains customary representations and warranties of the parties relating to, among other things, their authority to enter into the Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement and, in the case of Computer Horizons, relating to various aspects of our Commercial Services Business.

Exclusivity and "Fiduciary Out" (See page 46)

The Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement provides that we will not solicit or initiate any inquiry or proposal with respect to an alternative transaction for the purchase of our Commercial Services Business (other than a proposal to purchase Computer Horizons in its entirety), although we are permitted to engage in discussions and furnish information in response to an unsolicited inquiry to acquire our Commercial Services Business. Our Board is entitled to withdraw its approval or recommendation of the Commercial Services Asset Sale if we receive a proposal to purchase Computer Horizons in its entirety or if we receive an unsolicited proposal for an alternative transaction and our Board determines in good faith that it is a superior alternative transaction. In such a case, withdrawal of the Board's approval of the Commercial Services Asset Sale is required to comply with the Board's fiduciary duties.

Other Covenants (See page 47)

The Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement contains customary covenants of the parties, including agreements by us to conduct the Commercial Services Business in the ordinary course in accordance with past practice and to refrain from certain actions between the time of signing the Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement and the closing of the transaction, to use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the requisite approval of our shareholders, and to provide certain transition services pursuant to a separate transition services agreement for up to four months after the closing.

Indemnification (See page 48)

The Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement provides that we and TEKsystems will indemnify each other for any losses arising out of, among other things, breaches of representations, warranties and covenants made in the Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement, subject to certain dollar and time limitations.

Conditions to Closing (See page 49)

The obligations of the parties to the Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement to consummate the Commercial Services Asset Sale are subject to customary closing conditions, including, among other things, that the Commercial Services Asset Sale has been approved by our shareholders and that the waiting period under Federal antitrust laws has terminated.

The obligation of TEKsystems to consummate the Commercial Services Asset Sale is subject to the fulfillment (or waiver) of additional conditions, including that there shall have been no material adverse effect on our Commercial Services Business or on our ability to consummate the Commercial Services Asset Sale, that we shall have obtained certain customer consents, and that we shall have received certain confirmations from relevant Canadian governmental agencies.

Termination (See page 50)

The Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement can be terminated:

•: by mutual agreement of the parties;
•: by either TEKsystems or us if our Board of Directors withdraws or modifies adversely to TEKsystems its approval of the Commercial Services Asset Sale, or if there has been a material breach of the Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement by the other party that is not cured within 20 business days after notice, the closing does not occur by March 31, 2007 because of the non-satisfaction of a condition to the terminating party's obligation to close that is not within the terminating party's control, or there is a court order prohibiting the Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement; and
•: by Computer Horizons if we wish to accept an offer for a total company sale.

Termination Fee (See page 51)

Under the Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement, we are obligated to pay to TEKsystems a $2,000,000 termination fee if the Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement is terminated by us or TEKsystems in the event our Board has withdrawn or modified its approval of the Commercial Services Asset Sale or if we wish to accept an offer for a sale of Computer Horizons in its entirety.

Regulatory Approvals (See page 51)

We believe that no state or Federal regulatory approval is required in connection with the Commercial Services Asset Sale.

Appraisal Rights in Respect of the Asset Sales (See page 51)

We believe the Commercial Services Asset Sale constitutes the sale of all or substantially all of our assets within the meaning of the New York Business Corporation Law. Accordingly, the appraisal rights under New York law discussed herein and set forth in Annex F apply. Shareholders who follow the procedures set forth in Sections 623 and 910 of the New York Business Corporation Law, or the Appraisal Statute, will be entitled to have their common stock appraised by a New York State Court and to receive payment of the "fair value" of such shares as determined by such court. The Appraisal Statute is reprinted in its entirety as Annex F to this proxy statement. If you wish to exercise such appraisal rights or to preserve the right to do so, you should review the discussion on page 25 of this proxy statement and Annex F carefully because failure to timely and properly comply with the procedures specified will result in the loss of your dissenters' appraisal rights under the New York Business Corporation Law. Each party in any appraisal proceeding will bear its own costs and expenses, including the fees of counsel and any experts employed by it, unless the court determines otherwise.

Consummation of Commercial Services Asset Sale not Conditioned on TEKsystems Obtaining Financing (See page 51)

We understand that the total amount of funds required by TEKsystems to pay the purchase price under the Commercial Services Asset Sale, and to pay related fees and expenses, is estimated to be approximately $57.5 million. TEKsystems has indicated that it plans to fund this through its working capital and borrowings under existing lines of credit. The foregoing estimate does not take into account the results of the exercise by shareholders of dissenters' rights under New York law which may result in their receipt of amounts less than, more than or equal to the amounts which may otherwise be payable to them under the terms of the Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement.

Accounting Treatment (See page 52)

We will record the Commercial Services Asset Sale in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. Upon completion of the disposition we will recognize a financial reporting gain equal to the net proceeds (sum of purchase price less expenses of the sale) less the book value of the assets and liabilities sold.

Certain Federal Income Tax Consequences (See page 52)

The Commercial Services Asset Sale will be a taxable transaction for us. We will realize gain or loss measured by the difference between the proceeds received by us on such sale and our tax basis in the assets. For purposes of calculating gain or loss, the proceeds received by us and our affiliates will include the cash we received, the amount of our indebtedness that is cancelled or assumed, and any other consideration we receive for our assets. It is anticipated that we will have sufficient losses (including net operating loss carryforwards) to offset the gain expected to be realized from the Commercial Services Asset Sale for regular Federal income tax purposes, subjecting us only to Federal alternative minimum tax.

We do not expect that the Commercial Services Asset Sale will result in any Federal income tax consequences to our shareholders.

Background of the Commercial Services Asset Sale (See page 52)

The current members of the Board of Directors and current senior executive officers of the Company took office in October 2005, as the result of a proxy contest led by shareholders of Computer Horizons who believed that the business decisions of Computer Horizons' prior directors and management were not maximizing the value of Computer Horizons. Immediately after taking office, the new Board and management began exploring strategic alternatives for Computer Horizons and its business units and requested Jefferies Broadview, which had been retained previously by Computer Horizons, to continue as Computer Horizons' financial advisor in that effort. With the Board's frequent and extensive consultation and guidance throughout a process extending many months, management and Jefferies Broadview considered a number of strategic alternatives for Computer Horizons and its businesses. This included an analysis of the operating history and prospects for growth of Computer Horizons as a whole and each business unit separately, including the Commercial Service Business.

separately. As a result of these contacts, we received a number of expressions of interest in purchasing our Commercial Services Business. Based on our review of these expressions of interest, and after considerable negotiation with representatives of Allegis, our Board determined to enter into a letter of intent with Allegis. After due diligence investigation of the Commercial Services Business by Allegis and negotiation of definitive terms of an asset purchase agreement, our Board determined that a sale of the Commercial Services Business in accordance with the Commercial Services Asset Sale is in the best interests of Computer Horizons and our shareholders, and approved the Commercial Services Asset Sale and the Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement.

Reasons for the Commercial Services Asset Sale (See page 58)

We considered the risks and challenges facing the Commercial Services Business in the future as compared with the opportunities available to us from the continued operation of our Commercial Services Business and concluded that sale of the Commercial Services Business in accordance with the terms of the Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement is the best alternative for maximizing value to our shareholders.

In addition, we have determined that the Commercial Services Asset Sale represents an opportunity to sell the Commercial Services Business at an attractive valuation given current market conditions. In reaching this decision, we considered the terms of the Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement, the fact that the Commercial Services Asset Sale represents the best offer available after diligent efforts by us and Jefferies Broadview to secure additional offers, the absence of credible expressions of interest in purchasing Computer Horizons as a whole and the fairness opinion delivered to the Board by Jefferies Broadview, described below. In light of the foregoing, we determined that, in our judgment, our entry into the Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement and the consummation of the Commercial Services Asset Sale is fair to and in the best interests of Computer Horizons and our shareholders.

Opinion of Financial Advisor to the Board of Directors (See page 58)

On November 7, 2006, Jefferies Broadview rendered its oral opinion to our Board of Directors with respect to the Commercial Services Asset Sale, subsequently confirmed in writing that, as of November 7, 2006, based upon and subject to certain assumptions, qualifications, limitations and factors described in the Jefferies Broadview opinion, the $57,000,000 purchase price to be received by Computer Horizons in the Commercial Services Asset Sale was fair, from a financial point of view, to Computer Horizons.

The opinion of Jefferies Broadview is addressed solely to our Board of Directors for our benefit and use, is directed only to the consideration to be paid in the Commercial Services Asset Sale and does not constitute a recommendation to our Board of Directors or you as to how to vote in connection with the Commercial Services Asset Sale or any other matter. The opinion of Jefferies Broadview does not address our underlying business decision to pursue the Commercial Services Asset Sale, the relative merits of the Commercial Services Asset Sale as compared to any alternative business strategies that might exist for us, the financing of the Commercial Services Asset Sale or the effects of any other Commercial Services Asset Sale in which we might engage. The full text of the opinion of Jefferies Broadview, dated November 7, 2006, with respect to the Commercial Services Asset Sale, which sets forth the procedures followed, limitations on the review undertaken, matters considered and assumptions made in connection with such opinion, is attached as Annex D to this proxy statement and is described more fully under "The Commercial Services Asset Sale (Proposal No. 2)—Opinion of Financial Advisor to the Board of Directors" beginning on page 58 of this proxy statement. We recommend that you read the opinion carefully in its entirety.

Effect of the Asset Sales and the Plan of Complete Liquidation and Dissolution on Computer Horizons and our Shareholders (See page 64)

See "Summary Term Sheet—The Chimes Asset Sale (Proposal No. 1)—Effect of the Asset Sales and the Plan of Complete Liquidation and Dissolution on Computer Horizons and our shareholders."

Required Vote (See page 64)

All holders of Computer Horizons' common stock as of the record date are entitled to vote on Proposal No. 2. The affirmative vote of the holders of two-thirds of the votes of all outstanding shares entitled to vote thereon is required to approve and adopt the Commercial Services Asset Sale and Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement. Abstentions and broker "non-votes" will have the same effect as votes against Proposal No. 2.

Recommendation of our Board of Directors

Our Board of Directors has concluded unanimously that the Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement and the Commercial Services Asset Sale are in the best interests of our shareholders and recommends that you approve the Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement and the Commercial Services Asset Sale and that you vote FOR the approval of Proposal No. 2.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE "FOR" PROPOSAL NO. 2.

Plan of Complete Liquidation and Dissolution (Proposal No. 3)

We are seeking the approval of our shareholders of a plan of complete liquidation and dissolution of Computer Horizons, to be implemented after both Asset Sales are completed. The plan of complete liquidation and dissolution provides for the voluntary liquidation, winding up and dissolution of our company. The dissolution would take place following the completion of both Asset Sales. If the plan of complete liquidation and dissolution is approved by our shareholders and implemented by us, we will liquidate our remaining assets, satisfy or make reasonable provisions for the satisfaction of our remaining obligations, and make distributions to shareholders of any available liquidation proceeds, as well as other cash on hand. If at any time our Board of Directors determines that liquidation and dissolution are not in the best interests of our shareholders, our Board of Directors may direct that the plan of complete liquidation and dissolution be abandoned, or may amend or modify the plan of complete liquidation and dissolution to the extent permitted by New York law, without the necessity of further shareholder approval. For more information regarding the proposed liquidation and dissolution of Computer Horizons, see "Approval of Proposal to Adopt Plan of Complete Liquidation and Dissolution and to Liquidate and Dissolve the Company."

We estimate that if both Asset Sales are approved by the shareholders and consummated the aggregate amount of distributions to our shareholders may be in the range of $4.68 to $4.81 per share of Common Stock. Assuming the Special Meeting is held as scheduled on February 14, 2007 and both Asset Sales are consummated at substantially the same time, we currently expect that an initial distribution to shareholders would be made by the end of the first quarter of 2007 in the range of $3.80 to $4.00 per share of the Company's Common Stock and that one or more further distributions would be made thereafter. If both Asset Sales are approved by the shareholders, but they are not consummated at substantially the same time, the Board will consider the anticipated length of time between the two closings and will exercise its discretion in determining whether to await the consummation of both Asset Sales before making an initial distribution to shareholders.

distribution. Such amount and timing will depend on a number of factors, several of which cannot be determined at this time, including:

•: The ultimate amount of our known, unknown and contingent debts and liabilities;
•: The fees and expenses incurred by us in the liquidation of our assets and the dissolution of our company; and
•: Whether the purchasers in the Asset Sales meet their obligations to perform and discharge the Computer Horizons obligations and liabilities assumed by them.

As a result, the amount of cash remaining following completion of our liquidation and dissolution could vary significantly from our current estimates. See "Approval of Proposal to Adopt Plan of Complete Liquidation and Dissolution and to Liquidate and Dissolve the Company."

Conduct of Our Liquidation and Dissolution (See Page 65)

In conducting our liquidation and dissolution our Board of Directors and officers will:

•: settle and close our business;
•: convert to cash as many of our non-cash assets as possible;
•: withdraw from any jurisdiction where we are qualified to do business;
•: pay or make provision to pay our expenses and other liabilities;
•: prosecute and defend any lawsuits;
•: distribute our remaining assets to the shareholders; and
•: engage in any other acts necessary to wind up and liquidate our business and affairs.

See "Approval of Proposal to Adopt Plan of Complete Liquidation and Dissolution and to Liquidate and Dissolve the Company—Conduct of our Liquidation and Dissolution."

Distributions to Shareholders (See Page 66)

Before distributing any assets to our shareholders, we will pay and discharge, or make provisions reasonably likely to provide sufficient compensation for, all of our claims and obligations, including pending, contingent, conditional, or unmatured claims as well as claims that have not arisen but that are likely to arise after our dissolution. See "Approval of Proposal to Adopt Plan of Complete Liquidation and Dissolution and to Liquidate and Dissolve the Company—Distributions to Shareholders."

Liquidating Trusts (See Page 67)

Although no decision has been made, our Board of Directors may, in its absolute discretion, transfer some or all of our assets to one or more liquidating trusts in connection with our liquidation and dissolution. See "Approval of Proposal to Adopt Plan of Complete Liquidation and Dissolution and to Liquidate and Dissolve the Company—Liquidating Trusts."

Potential Creditor Claims if Reserves Insufficient (See Page 68)

If we fail to create an adequate contingency reserve for payment of our expenses and liabilities, creditors could assert claims against each shareholder receiving a distribution for the payment of any shortfall, up to the amounts previously received by the shareholder in distributions from us. See "Approval of Proposal to Adopt Plan of Complete Liquidation and Dissolution and to Liquidate and Dissolve the Company—Continuing Liability of Shareholders After Dissolution."

Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Dissolution (See Page 68)

Each shareholder will generally recognize a capital gain or loss equal to the difference between the aggregate amount of the distribution made to the shareholder in connection with our liquidation and the adjusted tax basis of such shareholder's shares. See "Approval of Proposal to Adopt Plan of Complete Liquidation and Dissolution and to Liquidate and Dissolve the Company—Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Dissolution."

Required Vote (See Page 71)

All holders of Computer Horizons' common stock as of the record date are entitled to vote on the dissolution proposal. The affirmative vote of the holders of two-thirds of the votes of all outstanding shares entitled to vote thereon is required to approve and adopt the plan of complete liquidation and dissolution and to approve the liquidation and dissolution of the Company. Abstentions and broker "non-votes" will have the same effect as votes against Proposal No. 3.

Recommendation of our Board of Directors (See Page 71)

Our Board of Directors has concluded unanimously that the plan of complete liquidation and dissolution and the liquidation and dissolution proposal are in the best interests of our shareholders and recommends that you approve the plan of complete liquidation and dissolution and the liquidation and dissolution proposal and that you vote FOR the approval of Proposal No. 3.

OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE "FOR" PROPOSAL NO. 3.

Adjournment of the Special Meeting (Proposal No. 4)

We may ask our shareholders to vote on a proposal to adjourn the special meeting, if necessary or appropriate, in order to allow for the solicitation of additional proxies if there are insufficient votes at the time of the special meeting to approve and adopt any of Proposal Nos. 1, 2 or 3.

Required Vote

The approval of the adjournment proposal requires the approval of the holders of a majority of the shares of common stock voting at the special meeting. Shares that are voted "FOR" or "AGAINST" the proposal will be counted towards the vote requirement. Neither broker "non-votes" nor abstentions are included in the tabulation of the voting results and, therefore, they do not have the effect of votes against Proposal No. 4.

Recommendation of our Board of Directors

Our Board of Directors has concluded unanimously that the adjournment proposal is in the best interests of our shareholders and recommends that you approve Proposal No. 4.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE "FOR" PROPOSAL NO. 4.

THE SPECIAL MEETING

Time, Date and Place; Matters to be Considered

The special meeting will be held on February 14, 2007, at 10:00 a.m. local time, at the offices of Olshan Grundman Frome Rosenzweig & Wolosky LLP, Park Avenue Tower, 65 East 55th Street, New York, New York 10022. At the special meeting, shareholders will be asked to consider and vote upon each of the proposals and conduct such other business as may properly come before the special meeting and any adjournment thereof.

Voting and Record Date

The Board of Directors has fixed December 29, 2006, as the record date for determining holders of shares of our common stock of record entitled to receive notice of and to vote at the special meeting. Each holder of record of shares of our common stock on the record date is entitled to cast one vote per share, exercisable in person or by a properly executed proxy, with respect to the approval of the proposals and any other matter to be submitted to a vote of shareholders at the special meeting.

Approval of Proposal Nos. 1, 2 and 3 will require in each case an affirmative vote of the holders of two-thirds of the votes of all outstanding shares entitled to vote thereon. Abstentions and broker "non-votes" will have the same effect as votes against each of Proposal Nos. 1, 2 and 3. Approval of Proposal No. 4, requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares of our common stock voting on the proposal. Neither broker "non-votes" nor abstentions will be included in the tabulation of the voting results and, therefore, they do not have the effect of votes against Proposal No. 4.

The Board has unanimously approved each of the proposals and recommends a vote FOR the approval of each of the proposals. We are seeking requisite shareholder approval of each of the proposals.

Quorum

The required quorum for the transaction of business at the special meeting is a majority of the votes of shares entitled to vote thereat by holders of shares of our common stock outstanding on the record date. Shares that are voted "FOR" or "AGAINST" a proposal or marked "ABSTAIN" are treated as being present at the special meeting for purposes of establishing a quorum and are also treated as shares entitled to vote at the special meeting with respect to such proposal. New York law provides that the shareholders present may adjourn the special meeting despite the absence of a quorum.

Abstentions and Broker Non-Votes

Broker "non-votes" and the shares of common stock as to which a shareholder abstains are included for purposes of determining whether a quorum of shares of common stock is present at a meeting. A broker "non-vote" occurs when a nominee holding shares of common stock for the beneficial owner does not vote on a particular proposal because the nominee does not have discretionary voting power with respect to that item and has not received instructions from the beneficial owner. Since Proposals Nos. 1, 2 and 3 require the approval of the holders of two-thirds of the votes of all outstanding shares entitled to vote thereon, both broker "non-votes" and abstentions would have the same effect as votes against such proposals. With respect to Proposal No. 4, to approve the adjournment of the special meeting if deemed necessary, neither broker "non-votes" nor abstentions are included in the tabulation of the voting results and, therefore, they do not have the effect of votes against such proposal.

Brokerage Accounts

If any of your shares are held in the name of a brokerage firm, bank, bank nominee or other institution, only it can vote such shares and only upon receipt of your specific instructions. Accordingly, please contact the person responsible for your account and instruct that person to execute the proxy card representing your shares. In addition, if you hold your shares in a brokerage or bank account, your broker or bank may allow you to provide your voting instructions by telephone or Internet. Please consult the materials you receive from your broker or bank prior to authorizing a proxy by telephone or Internet. We urge you to confirm in writing your instructions to us directly at 49 Old Bloomfield Avenue, Mountain Lakes, NJ 07046-1495 so that we will be aware of all instructions given and can attempt to ensure that such instructions are followed.

Proxies

Our Board of Directors is asking for your proxy. Giving the Board of Directors your proxy means you authorize it to vote your shares at the special meeting in the manner you direct. You may vote for or against the proposals or abstain from voting. All valid proxies received prior to the special meeting will be voted. All shares of common stock that are represented at the special meeting by properly executed proxies received prior to or at the special meeting, and not duly and timely revoked, will be voted at the special meeting in accordance with the choices marked thereon by the shareholders. Unless a contrary choice is marked, the shares represented by each proxy will be voted FOR approval of each of the proposals. At the time this proxy statement was mailed to shareholders, we were not aware that any other matters not referred to herein would be presented for action at the special meeting. If any other matters properly come before the special meeting, the persons designated in the proxy intend to vote the shares represented thereby in accordance with their best judgment.

Any proxy given pursuant to this solicitation may be revoked by the person giving it at any time before it is voted. Proxies may be revoked by (i) filing with our corporate Secretary at or before the taking of the vote at the special meeting, a written notice of revocation bearing a later date than the proxy, (ii) duly executing a later-dated proxy relating to the same shares and delivering it to our corporate Secretary before the taking of the vote at the special meeting or (iii) attending the special meeting and voting in person (although attendance at the special meeting will not in and of itself constitute a revocation of a proxy).

Attendance at the Special Meeting

Only holders of common stock, their proxy holders and guests we may invite may attend the special meeting. If you wish to attend the special meeting in person but you hold your shares through someone else, such as a stockbroker, you must bring proof of your ownership and identification with a photo at the special meeting. For example, you could bring an account statement showing that you beneficially owned shares of common stock of Computer Horizons as of the record date as acceptable proof of ownership.

Costs of Solicitation

We will bear the cost of printing and mailing proxy materials, including the reasonable expenses of brokerage firms and others for forwarding the proxy materials to beneficial owners of common stock. In addition to solicitation by mail, solicitation may be made by certain of our directors, officers and employees, or firms specializing in solicitation; and may be made in person or by telephone or telegraph. No additional compensation will be paid to any of our directors, officers or employees for such solicitation. We have retained Mackenzie Partners, Inc., 105 Madison Avenue, 14th Floor, New York, New York 10016, as proxy solicitor, for a fee of $7,500 plus out-of-pocket expenses.

SPECIAL FACTORS

Risks Related to the Asset Sales

Failure to complete one or both of the Asset Sales may have an adverse effect on our stock price

Each Asset Sale is subject to a number of conditions to closing. As a result, we cannot assure you that either of the Asset Sales will be completed. The failure to complete one or both of the Asset Sales may result in a decrease in the market value of our common stock and may create substantial doubt as to our ability to effectively implement our current business strategies.

We may be left with a less diversified business if our shareholders only approve one of the Asset Sales

If one of the Asset Sales is approved but not the other, then we will proceed solely with the approved Asset Sale. In such a case, we would be left with a significantly less diversified business following the consummation of the Asset Sale that receives shareholder approval. We cannot assure you that we can grow the revenues of our remaining business or conduct it on a profitable basis. Until the remaining business is sold, if ever, our revenue and profitability will depend on our ability to maintain and generate additional customers and to maintain and grow any remaining business. A reduction in demand for the products and services of any remaining business would have a material adverse effect on our business.

We cannot assure you that we would be able to maintain or increase our current level of revenues or profits from any remaining business in future periods.

The Asset Sales subject us to potential termination payments and expenses

Under the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement, we are obligated to pay to Diversity MSP $4,000,000 if we terminate the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement in order to accept a superior offer. In addition, we have agreed, in the event that the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement is terminated by Axium or Diversity MSP as a result of our breach of the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement, to pay the reasonably documented expenses of Axium and Diversity MSP up to a maximum amount of $250,000.

Under the Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement, we are obligated to pay to TEKsystems a $2,000,000 termination fee if we or TEKsystems terminates the Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement because our Board has withdrawn or modified its approval of the Commercial Services Asset Sale or we terminate the Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement in order to accept an offer to purchase Computer Horizons in its entirety.

We have indemnification obligations under each of the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement and the Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement

Under the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement, we have agreed to indemnify Axium, Diversity MSP and their affiliates and other related parties among other things, any losses incurred by them arising out of our breach of the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement, subject to certain dollar and time limitations.

Under the Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement, we have agreed to indemnify TEKsystems and its affiliates for, among other things, any losses incurred by them arising out of our breach of the Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement, subject to certain dollar and time limitations.

Risks Related to the Liquidation and Dissolution

If we liquidate and dissolve, our Board will need to make provision for the satisfaction of all of our known and unknown liabilities, which could substantially delay or limit our ability to make distribution in full to shareholders.

If we liquidate and dissolve, our Board of Directors will be required to make adequate provision to satisfy our liabilities, including known and unknown claims against us, before authorizing any distribution to shareholders. Although we expect to make a substantial initial distribution as promptly as practicable after the consummation of the Asset Sales, the process of accounting for our liabilities, including those that are presently unknown, may involve difficult valuation decisions, which could adversely impact the Board's ability to make distribution in full in a timely manner. Substantial time may be required for us to determine the extent of our liabilities to known third party creditors and claimants and for us to settle or judicially resolve any claims that are contested. Furthermore, pursuant to the New York Business Corporation Law, we may be subject to claims being commenced against us for liabilities unknown to us for a period of time after dissolution. Assuming we have sufficient remaining cash, a period of time must elapse after dissolution before we would be able to make any distribution in full to shareholders of our assets remaining after satisfying or providing for all our liabilities and obligations, and such distribution may likely be made in more than one installment over an extended period of time.

If our contingent reserves are insufficient to satisfy our liabilities, creditors could assert claims against us seeking to prevent distributions or against our shareholders to the extent of distributions received.

If a court holds at any time that we have failed to make adequate provision for our expenses and liabilities or if the amount ultimately required to be paid in respect of such liabilities exceeds the amount available from the contingency reserve, our creditors could seek an injunction against the making of distributions on the grounds that the amounts to be distributed are needed to provide for the payment of our expenses and liabilities. Any such action could delay or substantially diminish the amount of any cash distributions to shareholders.

The Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement

On October 18, 2006, Axium, Diversity MSP, Chimes and the Company entered into the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement providing for the sale to Diversity MSP of substantially all of the assets and liabilities of the Chimes Business, other than certain excluded assets, for an aggregate purchase price of $80,000,000 in cash.

The following is a summary of the material provisions of the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement, a copy of which is attached as Annex A to this proxy statement.

Assets to be Sold

The assets to be sold include all of the Company's right, title and interest of Chimes in and to its business assets, properties, rights and claims (other than certain excluded assets described below), including all of Chimes's inventory, intellectual property rights, personal property leases, contracts, permits, interests in office leases, scheduled accounts receivable, claims and other causes of action, marketing materials, backlog, client lists, security deposits and prepaid expenses, goodwill, and certain cash held in client-specific bank accounts for disbursement to vendors of such clients or held for disbursement to Chimes' vendors pursuant to client arrangements.

The assets excluded from the Chimes Asset Sale are the corporate records, insurance policies (except as they relate to warranty obligations assumed by Axium), cash and marketable securities (except for certain cash held in client-specific bank accounts for disbursement to vendors of such clients or held for disbursement to Chimes's vendors pursuant to client arrangements), income tax credits and refunds for the period ending on the Closing Date, employee benefit plans, rights and assets of Chimes with respect to any liabilities not assumed by Axium and Diversity MSP, all rights of Chimes or the

Company under the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement, and documents related thereto, including the purchase price to be paid thereunder and the right to receive mail and other communication with respect to the excluded assets referred to above.

Liabilities to be Assumed

In the event the Chimes Asset Sale is consummated, Diversity MSP has agreed to assume all liabilities and commitments of the Chimes Business, including accounts payable, accrued liabilities relating to the assets transferred as shown on Chimes' June 30, 2006 balance sheet, liabilities and commitments arising under the permits, personal property leases, office leases and contracts transferred to Diversity MSP and warranty obligations.

Certain Covenants

The Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement contains certain covenants and agreements of the Company and Chimes regarding the relationship prior to and after Closing between the Company and Chimes, on the one hand, and Diversity MSP and Axium, on the other. These covenants include agreements by all of the parties to protect the confidentiality of the matters covered by the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement and to use reasonable efforts to do all things necessary to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement.

The covenants also include agreements by the Company and Chimes, among other things:

•: from October 18, 2006 until the Chimes Asset Sale closing, to conduct Chimes's business in the ordinary course in accordance with past practices and refrain from certain actions specified in the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement and to provide notice to Diversity MSP of events that could result in a default under the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement;
•: until ninety days after the Chimes Asset Sale closing, to preserve and allow Diversity MSP reasonable access to Chimes' records and provide such additional financial and operational data as Diversity MSP may reasonably request;
•: to use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the requisite approval of our shareholders;
•: for a period of three years after the Chimes Asset Sale closing, not to engage in or compete with the Chimes Business (other than the conduct and operation of the Commercial Services Business); and
•: for a period of up to 90 days after the closing of the Chimes Asset Sale, to provide certain transition services to Diversity MSP and Axium pursuant to a transition services agreement.

The Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement also includes an agreement by Diversity MSP to offer full-time employment to substantially all (i.e., at least 90% and up to 100%) of the employees who are employed by Chimes as of the closing of the Chimes Asset Sale on terms and conditions comparable to the terms and conditions of Diversity MSP in similar job classifications and grades, and to hire all such employees who accept such offer, and to maintain for the benefit of such employees a package of employee benefits that is comparable in the aggregate to the employee benefit programs for current employees of Diversity MSP in similar job classifications and grades.

Superior Offer

The Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement provides that the Company's Board may at any time prior to the Chimes Asset Sale closing, withdraw or modify its approval or recommendation of the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement or the Chimes Asset Sale or approve or recommend a superior offer if: a bona fide written offer is made to the Company by a third party for an acquisition proposal, and such offer is not withdrawn, the Board determines in good faith, after consultation with its financial advisor, that such offer constitutes a superior offer; following consultation with outside legal counsel, the Board or a committee of disinterested directors determines that the withdrawal or modification of its approval or recommendation of the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement or the Chimes Asset Sale is required to comply with the fiduciary duties of the Board to our shareholders; such approval or recommendation is not withdrawn or modified in a manner adverse to Diversity MSP at any time prior to five business days after Diversity MSP and Axium receive written notice from the Company confirming that the

Board has determined that such offer is a superior offer, setting forth in reasonable detail all material terms of such superior offer; and at the end of such five business day period, after taking into account any adjustment or modification of the terms of the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement proposed by Diversity MSP or Axium (and any adjustment or modification of the terms of such acquisition proposal), the Board again makes the determination in good faith that the withdrawal or modification of such approval or recommendation of the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement or the Chimes Asset Sale is required to comply with the fiduciary duties of the Board to our shareholders.

As used herein, the term superior offer means an acquisition proposal on terms that the Company's Board determines, in good faith, based upon consultations with its outside legal counsel and its financial advisor, that if consummated, is more favorable to our shareholders than the Chimes Asset Sale or the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement and is reasonably likely to be consummated, taking into account all legal, financial and regulatory aspects of the offer and the person making the offer and would, if consummated, be in the best interests of the Shareholders of the Company. Also, as used herein, the term acquisition proposal means (other than Chimes Asset Sale) any inquiry, proposal or offer from any person relating to; any direct or indirect acquisition or purchase of our Chimes Business, any direct or indirect acquisition or purchase of assets representing 20% or more of the assets of the Company, any issuance, sale, or other disposition of (including by way of merger, consolidation, business combination, share exchange, joint venture, or any similar transaction) securities (or options, rights or warrants to purchase, or securities convertible into or exchangeable for, such securities) representing 20% or more of the voting power of the Company, any tender offer, exchange offer or other transaction in which, if consummated, any person shall acquire beneficial ownership, or the right to acquire beneficial ownership, or any "group" shall have been formed which beneficially owns or has the right to acquire beneficial ownership, of 20% or more of the outstanding voting capital stock of the Company, or any merger, consolidation, share exchange, business combination, recapitalization, liquidation or dissolution involving the Company.

Indemnification

Under the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement, the Company and Chimes have jointly and severally agreed to indemnify Axium, Diversity MSP and their affiliates and other related parties against any damages, losses or liabilities, including reasonable legal fees and expenses, which arise out of, result from or relate to:

•: any inaccuracy in or any breach of any representation and warranty, or any breach of any covenant or agreement, of Chimes or the Company contained in the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement or in any document or other papers delivered pursuant to thereto, provided that a claim for indemnity is asserted on or before the expiration of six months after the closing date of the Chimes Asset Sale, provided that the indemnification liability of Chimes and the Company to Axium and Diversity MSP under the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement shall not exceed $8,000,000 and that neither Axium nor Diversity MSP shall make any claim for indemnification by Chimes and the Company until the total claims for indemnification of Axium or Diversity MSP are at least $250,000; and
•: any claim for indemnification, or any litigation, by Hewlett-Packard Company, or its affiliates or subsidiaries, for any loss which arises out of, results from or relates to occurrences prior to or at the closing of the Chimes Asset Sale. Axium requested indemnification for any such claim or litigation, not subject to the dollar cap on indemnification set forth above. Hewlett Packard has asserted that Chimes is obligated to indemnify Hewlett Packard against any loss it might suffer as a result of two lawsuits filed against Hewlett Packard. In each of these lawsuits, subcontractors furnished to Hewlett Packard by suppliers arranged for by Chimes asserted claims against Hewlett Packard. The Company and Chimes agreed to Axium's request for indemnification for claims by Hewlett Packard without a cap because of the Company's and

Chimes's belief that neither the Company nor Chimes will have any material liability with respect to claims by Hewlett Packard, including claims for indemnity such as those referred to above, as well as the fact that the Company and Chimes have indemnification from the suppliers with respect to the claims referred to above.

Conditions to Closing

The obligations of the Company and Chimes, on the one hand, and Axium and Diversity MSP, on the other hand, to consummate the Chimes Asset Sale are subject to the fulfillment (or waiver) of certain conditions including, among other things, that:

•: the Chimes Asset Sale has been approved by our shareholders;
•: no law, rule or regulation has been enacted or investigation, action, suit or proceeding has been threatened or instituted against any of the parties which in the reasonable judgment of the Company or Chimes, on the one hand, or Axium or Diversity MSP, on the other hand, prohibits or precludes the consummation of the Chimes Asset Sales, or which claims, or might give rise to a claim for, damages against Chimes or the Company as a result of the consummation of the Chimes Asset Sale;
•: the representations and warranties of the other party in the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement are true and correct and the other party has performed all of their obligations under the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement to be performed by them on or before the closing of the Chimes Asset Sale;
•: all required governmental approvals have been received; and
•: the waiting period under Federal antitrust laws has expired without adverse action by the applicable governmental authority.

Termination

The Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement may be terminated at any time prior to the closing of the Chimes Asset Sale:

•: by mutual written agreement of the parties;
•: by Diversity MSP, Chimes or the Company (provided such party has not previously been declared in default of the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement) if closing has not occurred by March 18, 2007 (or such later date as the parties may agree);
•: by Diversity MSP, Chimes or the Company if there shall be in effect a final non-appealable court order restraining, enjoining or otherwise prohibiting the consummation of the Chimes Asset Sale;
•: by Diversity MSP (provided neither Chimes nor the Company has previously terminated pursuant to the following clause), if Chimes or the Company breaches any of their respective material representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement and (if curable) such breach is not cured within five business days after written notice thereof;
•: by Chimes or the Company (provided neither Diversity MSP nor Axium has previously terminated pursuant the preceding paragraph), if Diversity MSP or Axium breaches any of its material representations, warranties, covenants or agreements contained in the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement and (if curable) such breach is not cured within five business days after written notice thereof; and

•: by the Company or Chimes, if the Company's Board withdraws (or modifies in a manner adverse to Diversity MSP) its approval or recommendation of the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement or the Chimes Asset Sale in accordance with the provisions described above under "—Superior Offer", but only (i) after providing written notice to Diversity MSP (a "notice of superior offer") advising Diversity MSP that the Board has received a superior offer, specifying the material terms and conditions of such superior offer in reasonable detail and identifying the person making such superior offer, and (ii) if Diversity MSP does not, within five business days of Diversity MSP's receipt of the notice of superior offer, make an offer that the Board determines, in its good faith judgment (after consultation with its advisors), to be at least as favorable to our shareholders as the superior offer; provided that during such five business day period, the Company shall negotiate in good faith with Diversity MSP (to the extent Diversity MSP wishes to negotiate) to enable Diversity MSP to make such an offer; and provided that Diversity MSP acknowledges and agrees that concurrently with such termination the Company may enter into a definitive agreement providing for implementation of such superior offer.

Termination Payment and Expenses

Under the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement, the Company and Chimes are obligated to pay $4,000,000 to Diversity MSP if Chimes or the Company terminates the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement in connection with a superior offer as described above. In addition, the parties have agreed that all expenses incurred in connection with the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement and the Chimes Asset Sale shall be paid by the party incurring such expenses except that the parties shall split equally their total filing fees under Federal antitrust laws and that if the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement is terminated as provided above by Diversity MSP in the event of a breach thereof by Chimes or the Company or by Chimes or the Company in the event of a breach thereof by Diversity MSP or Axium, the breaching party will pay the reasonably documented expenses of the terminating party up to a maximum amount of $250,000.

Regulatory Approvals

The Company believes that no state or Federal regulatory approval is required in connection with the Chimes Asset Sale other than the expiration or termination of a waiting period under Federal antitrust laws.

Appraisal Rights in Respect of the Asset Sales

The Company believes that each of the Asset Sales constitutes the sale of all or substantially all of the Company's assets within the meaning of the New York Business Corporation Law. Accordingly, under Section 910 of the New York Business Corporation Law, shareholders who follow the procedures set forth in the Appraisal Statute will be entitled to have their common stock appraised by a New York State court and to receive payment of the "fair value" of such shares as determined by such court. The Appraisal Statute is reprinted in its entirety as Annex F to this proxy statement. While the following discussion summarizes all material terms of the law pertaining to appraisal rights under the New York Law, it is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Appraisal Statute. Any shareholder who wishes to exercise such appraisal rights or to preserve the right to do so, should review the following discussion and Annex F carefully because failure to timely and properly comply with the procedures specified will result in the loss of dissenters' appraisal rights under the New York Business Corporation Law.

All references in the Appraisal Statute and in this discussion to a shareholder are to the record holder of our company's common stock on the record date specified in the Notice of Special Meeting. A person having a beneficial interest in shares of our common stock that are held of record by another person such as a broker or nominee must act promptly to cause the record holder to follow the steps

summarized below properly and in a timely manner to perfect whatever appraisal rights the beneficial owner may have.

A shareholder wishing to exercise appraisal rights must (i) deliver to us, prior to or at the special meeting but before the vote is taken on Proposal No. 1 or Proposal No. 2 as the case may, a written objection to the proposed Asset Sale as provided in Proposal No. 1 or Proposal No. 2, as the case may be, such objection notice, the Notice of Election, which must include a notice of his election to dissent, the shareholder's name, residence address, the number of shares as to which the shareholder dissents and a demand for payment of the fair value of such shares (which Notice of Election must be in addition to and separate from any proxy or vote against the proposed Asset Sale under Proposal No. 1 or Proposal No. 2, as the case may be) and (ii) not vote for approval of such Asset Sale. BECAUSE A PROXY WHICH DOES NOT CONTAIN VOTING INSTRUCTIONS WILL, UNLESS REVOKED, BE VOTED FOR APPROVAL OF PROPOSAL NO. 1 AND PROPOSAL NO. 2, AS THE CASE MAY BE, A SHAREHOLDER WHO VOTES BY PROXY AND WHO WISHES TO EXERCISE APPRAISAL RIGHTS MUST (A) VOTE AGAINST APPROVAL OF PROPOSAL NO. 1 OR PROPOSAL NO. 2, AS THE CASE MAY BE, OR (B) ABSTAIN FROM VOTING ON PROPOSAL NO. 1 OR PROPOSAL NO. 2, AS THE CASE MAY BE. Neither a vote against the asset sale, in person or by proxy, nor a proxy directing such vote or an abstention, will in and of itself constitute a written objection to the asset sale under the Appraisal Statute (Shareholders who timely file such Notice of Election and who do not vote in favor of the asset sale are referred to as Dissenting Shareholders).

A shareholder may not dissent as to less than all of the shares, as to which such shareholder has a right to dissent, held by such shareholder of record and owned beneficially. A nominee or fiduciary may not dissent on behalf of any beneficial owner as to less than all of the shares held of record by such nominee or fiduciary on behalf of such owner and as to which such nominee or fiduciary has a right to dissent. All Notices of Election should be addressed to Computer Horizons Corp., 49 Old Bloomfield Avenue, Mountain Lakes, NJ 07046-1495, Attn: Secretary.

Within 10 days after the date on which shareholders approve Proposal No. 1 or Proposal No. 2, as the case may be, we must send written notice by registered mail to each Dissenting Shareholder to such effect. At the time of the completion of the Asset Sale contemplated by Proposal No. 1 or Proposal No. 2, as the case may be, each Dissenting Shareholder will cease to have any rights of a shareholder except the right to be paid the fair value of his shares and rights under the Appraisal Statute.

A Notice of Election may be withdrawn by a Dissenting Shareholder prior to his acceptance in writing of an offer made by us to pay the value of such Dissenting Shares, except that a Notice of Election may not be withdrawn later than 60 days following the Effective Time unless we fail to make a timely offer to pay such value, in which case such Dissenting Shareholder shall have 60 days from the date an offer is made to withdraw his election. In either event, after such time, a Notice of Election may not be withdrawn without our written consent. In order to be effective, withdrawal of a Notice of Election must be accompanied by a return to us of any advance payment made by us to the Dissenting Shareholder as described below.

Upon filing the Notice of Election, or within one month thereafter, Dissenting Shareholders must submit to us the certificates representing their shares of common stock, at the address set forth above or to our transfer agent, Registrar and Transfer Company, and there will be noted thereon that a Notice of Election has been filed and the certificates will be returned to the Dissenting Shareholders. Any Dissenting Shareholders who fail to submit such certificates for such notation will, at our option exercised by written notice to such Dissenting Shareholders within 45 days of the date of filing of such Notice of Election, lose their appraisal rights unless a court, for good cause shown, shall otherwise direct.

Within 15 days after the expiration of the period within which shareholders may file their Notice of Election, or within 15 days after the Asset Sale closing, whichever is later (but in no case later than 90 days after the shareholders' vote to approve the Asset Sale contemplated by Proposal No. 1 or Proposal No. 2, as the case may be), we must make a written offer to pay for the Dissenting Shares held by such Dissenting Shareholder at a price which we consider to be their fair value. This offer will be accompanied by a statement setting forth the aggregate number of shares, which will be at the same price for all Dissenting Shares, with respect to which Notices of Election to dissent have been received and the aggregate number of holders of such shares.

If the Asset Sale closing has occurred at the time the offer is made, the offer will be accompanied by (i) advance payment to each Dissenting Shareholder who has submitted certificates for notation thereon of the election to dissent of an amount equal to 80% of such offer or (ii) as to each Dissenting Shareholder who has not yet submitted certificates for notation thereon of the election to dissent, a statement that advance payment of an amount equal to 80% of the amount of such offer will be made by us promptly upon submission of certificates. If the Asset Sale closing contemplated by Proposal No. 1 or Proposal No. 2, as the case may be, has not occurred at the time of the making of such offer, such advance payment or statement as to advance payment will be sent to each Dissenting Shareholder entitled thereto upon the Asset Sale closing. Acceptance of such advance payment by a Dissenting Shareholder will not constitute a waiver of dissenter's rights. If the Asset Sale contemplated by Proposal No. 1 or Proposal No. 2, as the case may be, is not completed within 90 days after approval of such Asset Sale by shareholders, such offer will be conditioned upon consummation of such Asset Sale.

If within 30 days after making such offer, we and any Dissenting Shareholder agree on the price to be paid for such Dissenting Shareholder's Dissenting Shares, we will pay the agreed price to such holder within 60 days after the later of the date such offer was made or the Asset Sale closing, upon surrender of certificates representing such holder's shares of common stock.

If we fail to make an offer within the 15-day period described above, or if we make an offer and any Dissenting Shareholder fails to agree within 30 days of the making of such offer, we must, within 20 days thereafter, institute a special proceeding in an appropriate court to determine the rights of Dissenting Shareholders and to fix the fair value of the shares. If we do not institute such a proceeding within such 20-day period, any Dissenting Shareholder may, within 30 days after such 20-day period expires, institute a proceeding for the same purpose. If such proceeding is not instituted by any Dissenting Shareholder within such 30-day period, all dissenters' rights will be extinguished unless the New York Supreme Court, for good cause shown, otherwise directs. All Dissenting Shareholders, other than those who agree with us to the price to be paid for their shares, will be made parties to such proceeding.

With respect to Dissenting Shareholders entitled to payment, the court will proceed to fix the value of our common stock, which will be the fair value as of the close of business on the day prior to the special meeting. In fixing the fair value of the shares of our common stock, the court will consider the nature of the asset sale and the effects on us and our shareholders, the concepts and methods then customary in relevant securities and financial markets for determining fair value of shares of a corporation engaging in a similar transaction under comparable circumstances and all other relevant factors.

The court will determine the fair value of such shares without a jury and without referral to an appraiser or referee. The final order by the court will include an allowance for interest (unless the court finds the refusal of any Dissenting Shareholder to accept our offer thereof as arbitrary, vexatious, or otherwise not in good faith) of such rate as the court finds to be equitable, accruing from the Asset Sale closing to the date of payment.

Each party in the appraisal proceeding will bear its own costs and expenses, including the fees of counsel and any experts employed by it. The court may, however, in its discretion, assess any of the

costs, fees and expenses incurred by us against Dissenting Shareholders (including those who withdraw their Notice of Election) if the court finds that their refusal to accept our offer was arbitrary, vexatious or otherwise not in good faith. Similarly, the costs, fees and expenses incurred by Dissenting Shareholders may be assessed by the court in its discretion, against us if the fair value of the shares as determined by the court materially exceeds the amount that we offered to pay, we failed to follow certain procedures of the Appraisal Statute or our manner of compliance with the Appraisal Statute was arbitrary, vexatious or not otherwise in good faith.

Within 60 days after the final determination of the proceeding, we will pay to each Dissenting Shareholder the amount found in such proceeding to be due such shareholder, upon the Dissenting Shareholder's surrender of certificates of the our common stock.

Any shareholder who duly demands, prior to the special meeting, an appraisal in compliance with the Appraisal Statute will not, after the Asset Sale closing, be entitled to vote the shares subject to such demand for any purpose or to the payment of dividends or other distributions on those shares, except dividends or other distributions payable to shareholders of record as of a date prior to the Asset Sale closing.

Failure to follow the steps required by the Appraisal Statute for perfecting appraisal rights may result in the loss of such rights. IN VIEW OF THE COMPLEXITY OF THE PROVISIONS OF THE APPRAISAL STATUTE, SHAREHOLDERS WHO ARE CONSIDERING DISSENTING FROM AN ASSET SALE SHOULD CONSULT THEIR LEGAL ADVISORS.

Consummation of Chimes Asset Sale Not Conditioned on Diversity MSP Obtaining Financing

The total amount of funds required by Diversity MSP to pay the consideration to be paid under the Chimes Asset Sale, and to pay related fees and expenses, is estimated to be approximately $80.5 million. Diversity MSP has indicated that it plans to fund this through its working capital and borrowings. Diversity MSP has received a financing commitment letter with respect to $62 million of debt financing with respect to the Chimes Asset Sale. The foregoing estimate does not take into account the results of the exercise by shareholders of dissenters' rights under New York law which may result in their receipt of consideration less than, more than or equal to the Chimes Asset Sale purchase price which would have been payable to them under the terms of the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement.

Accounting Treatment

The Company will record the Chimes Asset Sale in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. Upon completion of the disposition the Company will recognize a financial reporting gain equal to the net proceeds (sum of purchase price less expenses of the sale) less the book value of the assets and liabilities sold.

Certain Federal Income Tax Consequences

The sale of the Company's and its affiliates assets pursuant to the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement will be a taxable transaction with respect to the Company. The Company will realize gain or loss measured by the difference between the proceeds received by it and its affiliates on such sale and the Company's (or an affiliate's) tax basis in the assets. For purposes of calculating gain or loss, the proceeds received by the Company and its affiliates will include the cash received by them, the amount of their indebtedness that is cancelled or assumed, and any other consideration received by them for their assets. It is anticipated that the Company will have sufficient losses (including net operating loss carryforwards) to offset the gain expected to be realized from the Chimes Asset Sale for regular Federal income tax purposes, subjecting the Company only to Federal alternative minimum tax.

The Company and its affiliates may be subject to state income taxes to the extent that gains exceed losses for state tax law purposes, but does not anticipate that such taxes, if any, will be significant. We and/or our affiliates may be subject to foreign taxes with respect to this transaction, but do not anticipate that such taxes, if any, will be significant.

The Company does not expect that the Chimes Asset Sale will result in any Federal income tax consequences to our shareholders. The subsequent liquidation and dissolution of the Company, however, may result in Federal income tax consequences for shareholders. Shareholder are urged to read carefully the information set forth under the caption "Approval of Proposal to Adopt Plan of Liquidation and Dissolution and to Liquidate and Dissolve the Company—Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Dissolution" and to consult their tax advisors for a full understanding of the tax consequences of the liquidation and dissolution for them.

Background of the Chimes Asset Sale

The current members of the Board of Directors and current senior executive officers of the Company took office in October 2005, as the result of a proxy contest led by shareholders of the Company who believed that the business decisions of the Company's prior directors and management were not maximizing the value of the Company. Immediately after taking office, the new Board and management began exploring strategic alternatives for the Company and its business units and requested Jefferies Broadview, which had been retained previously by the Company, to continue as the Company's financial advisor in that effort. With the Board's frequent and extensive consultation and guidance throughout a process extending many months, management and Jefferies Broadview considered a number of strategic alternatives for the Company and its businesses. This included an analysis of the operating history and prospects for growth of the Company as a whole and each business unit separately, including the Chimes Business.

In the course of the review, the Company and Jefferies Broadview contacted more than 50 parties that they believed might have an interest in entering into a strategic transaction to purchase the Chimes Business, either as part of a purchase of the Company as a whole or separately. Approximately 60% of the parties contacted were strategic buyers and the balance were financial buyers.

As a result of the contacts with potentially interested parties, the Company received a number of expressions of interest in evaluating a purchase of the Chimes Business and entered into non-disclosure agreements with several of the potentially interested parties, including Axium, which executed and returned a non-disclosure agreement on March 17, 2006.

On March 20, 2006, a representative of Axium called Jefferies Broadview with questions about valuation, process and timing. Jefferies Broadview, at the direction of the Company, advised Axium that valuation would have to exceed $70 million to be competitive. The Axium representative indicated that he would consult with Lazard Ltd., Axium's financial advisor in the matter.

On March 27, 2006, a representative of Axium called a representative of Jefferies Broadview and indicated that Axium was thinking of a valuation in the low $50 million range up to possibly $60 million and asked that Jefferies Broadview get back to him if the Company's valuation expectations decreased.

Between April 21 and May 9, Jefferies Broadview sent out process letters to interested parties describing the due diligence process for parties interested in Chimes and received indications of interest from three parties, each of which showed a valuation in excess of $80 million.

On May 10, 2006, a representative of Axium contacted a representative of Jefferies Broadview by email inquiring about the status of Chimes. Jefferies Broadview, at the direction of the Company, advised Axium that the process was highly competitive, that valuations had increased since their last contact and that Axium needed to be above $80 million to be competitive.

On May 12, 2006, a representative of Axium advised Jefferies Broadview that Axium's valuation remained below $80 million and, accordingly, it would not submit a new offer for the Chimes Business.

From May 9 to mid-July 2006, the other parties that had given indications of interest continued their due diligence investigations of the Company.

On May 30, 2006, Jefferies Broadview sent a process letter to a representative of Axium and on May 31, 2006 Jefferies Broadview received an indication of interest from Axium at a valuation of $90 million.

On June 5, 2006, Jefferies Broadview representatives spoke with Axium's financial advisers at Lazard and discussed Axium's level of commitment to and ability to finance a transaction.

On June 6, 2006, Jefferies Broadview contacted a representative of Lazard to schedule management meetings between Axium and Company representatives and to arrange for transmitting business due diligence information to Axium.

On June 9, 2006, a representative of Lazard informed Jefferies Broadview that Axium, upon further consideration, was withdrawing from the bidding citing various factors. On or around June 23, 2006, a representative of Jefferies Broadview received a call from representatives of Axium and a representative of Lazard expressing continued interest in Chimes and a desire to be contacted should the structure of the process change.

On July 19, 2006, Jefferies Broadview sent a process letter to each of the other three interested parties outlining a confirmatory due diligence process and inviting each bidder to submit a definitive and binding offer for the purchase of Chimes containing its best and final offer and to return a copy of a draft asset purchase agreement to be furnished by the Company marked to show any changes the bidder would require to proceed with the transaction.

On July 21, 2006, in response to emails from Axium, a representative of Jefferies Broadview held a telephone conversation with representatives of Axium, who asked the Jefferies Broadview representative if there were a number at which Axium could pre-empt the bidding process for Chimes. At the Company's direction, the Jefferies Broadview representative responded that such a figure would have to be substantially higher than $100 million for any such preemption to be considered. The Axium representatives stated that they were interested in purchasing the Chimes Business and were prepared to pay a price of $90 million and wished to have this communicated to the board.

On July 22, 2006, a representative of Jefferies Broadview called a representative of Lazard to confirm the nature and level of Axium's interest.

On July 25, 2006, a representative of Jefferies Broadview spoke again with a representative of Lazard who advised that he had spoken to Axium and its lender and that Axium was serious about the transaction although the valuation Axium would place on the Chimes Business was unclear. The representative of Lazard confirmed that Lazard would be acting as Axium's advisor if Axium moved forward on the transaction and that Axium would like to know as soon as possible if they could be involved.

On August 1, 2006, Jefferies Broadview sent an email to the representative of Lazard indicating that Jefferies Broadview was working to accommodate Axium's late entry into the competitive process, and requesting information needed in that regard, and sent the process letter and draft Asset Purchase Agreement to a representative at Axium.

On August 8, 2006, one of the other interested parties, the Other Bidder submitted a letter to Jefferies Broadview setting forth a non-binding proposal to acquire the Chimes Business for $81 million, all cash, and providing for exclusivity and submitted a markup of the draft Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement, with extensive comments.

By August 11, 2006, two of the other interested parties had indicated that they would not be submitting bids.

On August 12, 2006, Axium submitted a proposal letter to acquire the Chimes Business for $66 million, all cash, and submitted a markup of the draft Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement, with relatively few comments.

On August 17, 2006, at the Company's direction Jefferies Broadview spoke with a representative of Lazard and indicated that Axium's bid would have to increase substantially and that, although the Company appreciated the fact that Axium's markup of the draft Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement was relatively light, there were still issues presented by that markup that would have to be addressed. The representative of Lazard raised the issue of exclusivity and, at the Company's direction, was told by Jefferies Broadview that the Company was unlikely to grant it.

On August 17, 2006, representatives of Jefferies Broadview spoke with the Chief Executive Officer of the Other Bidder and expressed concern about the price and the extensive nature of their markup and the business issues raised thereby.

On August 18, 2006, Axium submitted a revised bid of $73 million, all cash.

On August 22, 2006, at the Company's direction, Jefferies Broadview spoke with a representative of Lazard and advised him that there was still a gap between Axium's improved bid and the competition. The representative of Lazard urged that the Company's Board consider exclusivity for Axium.

On August 24, 2006, at the Company's direction, Jefferies Broadview spoke with a representative of Lazard and advised him that in order to win the bidding, Axium would have to increase its bid to $82 million, agree to some adjustments in the draft Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement and present a commitment letter establishing its lender's financial commitment.

On August 28, Axium submitted a revised bid of $80 million, all cash.

On August 30, 2006, at the Company's direction, Jefferies Broadview advised a representative of Lazard that the Company's Board was considering the Axium proposal and would be meeting on the matter and that the Company expected to propose a package of changes to Axium's proposed terms, including the breakup fee and indemnification, and to insist on a superior proposal provision. Jefferies Broadview also indicated at the Company's direction that the Board did not expect to agree to exclusivity and that Axium would have to move quickly to signing.

On August 31, 2006, a representative of Jefferies Broadview spoke to a representative of Lazard and indicated that a revised Asset Purchase Agreement would be sent to Axium by the next day and discussed some of the issues in the draft Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement raised by the Company, including the breakup fee and the need for approval by the Company's shareholders, and Axium's request for exclusivity.

On September 6, 2006, a representative of Lazard sent an email to Jefferies Broadview describing Axium's proposed debt and equity financing for the transaction.

On September 11, 2006, the Company's counsel sent a revised draft of the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement to counsel for Axium.

Between September 15 and October 13, 2006, the Company and Axium, with the assistance of their legal and financial advisors, negotiated and agreed upon the outstanding issues in the Axium draft Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement and on the form of a transition services agreement and other exhibits to the draft Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement.

From August 21, 2006 to October 8, 2006, representatives of the Other Bidder and the Company, their respective counsel and Jefferies Broadview held a number of telephone calls and meetings to discuss and attempt to resolve differences over the Other Bidder's request for exclusivity and issues raised by the Other Bidder's proposed changes to the draft Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement. Ultimately, the Other Bidder advised the Company that its Board had concluded that the $81 million bid should be withdrawn, and verbally indicated a new price of $72 million.

From October 11 to October 13, 2006, representatives of the Company, Axium and Axium's lender negotiated and reached agreement on a form of financing commitment letter from Axium's lender to Axium.

On October 13, 2006, the Company's Board met and considered the Asset Purchase Agreement with Axium and the transaction contemplated thereby. At the meeting, Jefferies Broadview reviewed its financial analyses of the $80,000,000 in cash to be paid in the Chimes Asset Sale. Jefferies Broadview then rendered its oral opinion to our Board of Directors with respect to the Chimes Asset Sale, subsequently confirmed in writing, that, as of October 13, 2006, based upon and subject to certain assumptions, qualifications, limitations and factors described in the Jefferies Broadview opinion, the $80,000,000 in cash to be received by the Company in the Chimes Asset Sale was fair, from a financial point of view, to the Company. After discussion, the Board unanimously approved the Asset Purchase Agreement with Axium and the transaction contemplated thereby, subject to receipt of a signed copy of the financing commitment from Axium's lender to Axium.

On October 17, 2006, counsel to Axium and the Company completed execution copies of the Asset Purchase Agreement and the Exhibits and schedules thereto and exchanged executed signature pages to the Asset Purchase Agreement to be released the following day.

On October 18, 2006, the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement was entered into by the parties and the Company issued a press release announcing the Chimes Asset Sale.

Reasons for the Chimes Asset Sale

Our Board of Directors considered the risks and challenges facing Chimes in the future as compared with the opportunities available to the Company from the continued operation of Chimes and concluded that the Chimes Asset Sale is the best alternative for maximizing value to our shareholders.

In addition, our Board of Directors has determined that the Chimes Asset Sale represents an opportunity to sell the Chimes Business at an attractive valuation given current market conditions. In reaching its decision with respect to the Chimes Asset Sale, the Board considered the terms of the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement, the fact that the Chimes Asset Sale represents the best offer available after diligent efforts by the Company and its financial advisor, Jefferies Broadview, to secure additional offers, the absence of credible expressions of interest in purchasing the Company as a whole and a fairness opinion delivered to the Board by Jefferies Broadview described below. In light of the foregoing, the Board of Directors determined that, in its judgment, the Chimes Asset Sale is fair to and in the best interests of the Company and our shareholders.

Opinion of Financial Advisor to the Board of Directors

media companies. At the Company's Board meeting on October 13, 2006, Jefferies Broadview rendered its oral opinion, subsequently confirmed in writing, that, as of October 13, 2006, based upon and subject to certain assumptions and limitations described in the Jefferies Broadview opinion, the right to receive the Chimes Asset Sale purchase price for the Chimes Business was fair, from a financial point of view, to the Company.

Jefferies Broadview's opinion, which describes the assumptions made, matters considered and limitations on the review undertaken by Jefferies Broadview, is attached as Annex B to this proxy statement. The Company's shareholders are urged to, and should, read the Jefferies Broadview opinion carefully and in its entirety. Jefferies Broadview's opinion was directed solely to the Board and addresses only the fairness from a financial point of view of the Chimes Asset Sale purchase price to be received by the Company. The Jefferies Broadview opinion does not address any other aspect of the Chimes Asset Sale and does not constitute a recommendation to any shareholder of the Company or any other person as to how to vote or act with respect to the Chimes Asset Sale. The summary of the Jefferies Broadview opinion set forth in this proxy statement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such opinion.

In connection with rendering its opinion, Jefferies Broadview, among other things:

•: reviewed a draft of the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement dated as of October 11, 2006, which for purposes of the Jefferies Broadview opinion, Jefferies Broadview assumed to be identical in all material respects to the definitive Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement;
•: reviewed certain financial and other information about the Company that was publicly available;
•: reviewed information concerning Chimes and the Company furnished to Jefferies Broadview by the managements of Chimes and the Company, including certain internal financial forecasts and analyses, budgets, reports and other information;
•: held discussions with senior management of Chimes and the Company concerning the Chimes Business' historical and current operations, financial condition and prospects, including recent financial performance, as well as the importance of engaging in the Chimes Asset Sale in light of the Company's other business plans and strategic objectives;
•: reviewed the valuations of publicly traded companies in lines of business that Jefferies Broadview deemed comparable in certain respects to the Chimes Business;
•: reviewed, to the extent publicly available, the financial terms of selected acquisition transactions involving companies in lines of business that Jefferies Broadview deemed comparable in certain respects to the business of the Chimes Business;
•: assisted in negotiations and discussions related to the Chimes Asset Sale among Chimes, the Company and Axium and their respective financial and legal advisors; and
•: reviewed the offer submitted by Axium.

With respect to the financial forecasts provided Jefferies Broadview and examined by Jefferies Broadview, Jefferies Broadview noted that projecting future results of any company is inherently subject

to uncertainty. The Company and Chimes informed Jefferies Broadview, however, and Jefferies Broadview assumed, that such financial forecasts were reasonably prepared on bases reflecting the best currently available estimates and good faith judgments of the management of the Company and Chimes as to the future performance of the Chimes Business. Jefferies Broadview expressed no opinion as to any financial forecasts or the assumptions on which they were made. In addition, in rendering the Jefferies Broadview opinion, Jefferies Broadview assumed that the Chimes Business would perform in accordance with the financial forecasts for the Chimes Business for all periods specified therein. Although such financial forecasts did not form the principal basis for the Jefferies Broadview opinion, but rather constituted one of many items that Jefferies Broadview employed, changes to such financial forecasts could affect the Jefferies Broadview opinion.

Jefferies Broadview's opinion did not address the relative merits of the Chimes Asset Sale as compared to other business strategies that might have been available to the Company, nor did it address the underlying business decision of the Company to proceed with the Chimes Asset Sale. Jefferies Broadview expressed no view as to the Federal, state or local tax consequences of the Chimes Asset Sale.

Jefferies Broadview's opinion was based upon market, economic, financial, and other conditions as they existed and could be evaluated as of the date of the Jefferies Broadview opinion. Jefferies Broadview further noted that although subsequent developments may affect the Jefferies Broadview opinion, Jefferies Broadview had no obligation to update, revise or reaffirm the Jefferies Broadview opinion.

Jefferies Broadview's analyses must be considered as a whole. Considering any portion of such analyses or the factors considered, without considering all analyses and factors, could create a misleading or incomplete view of the process underlying the conclusions expressed in the Jefferies Broadview opinion. Jefferies Broadview expressly disclaimed any undertaking or obligation to advise any person of any change in any fact or matter affecting our opinion of which Jefferies Broadview became aware after the date of the Jefferies Broadview opinion.

In its review, Jefferies Broadview did not obtain any independent evaluation or appraisal of the assets or liabilities of, nor did Jefferies Broadview conduct a comprehensive physical inspection of any of the assets of, Chimes, nor was Jefferies Broadview furnished with any such evaluations or appraisals or reports of such physical inspections, nor did Jefferies Broadview assume any responsibility to obtain any such evaluations, appraisals or inspections. The Jefferies Broadview opinion was based on economic, monetary, regulatory, market and other conditions existing and which can be evaluated as of the date of the Jefferies Broadview opinion. Jefferies Broadview made no independent investigation of any legal or accounting matters affecting Chimes, and Jefferies Broadview assumed the correctness in all respects material to Jefferies Broadview's analysis of all legal and accounting advice given to the Company and its Board of Directors, including, without limitation, advice as to the legal, accounting and tax consequences of the terms of, and transactions contemplated by, the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement.

In its opinion, Jefferies Broadview also assumed with the Company's consent that: (i) the Chimes Asset Sale would be consummated on the terms described in the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement without any waiver of any material terms or conditions which would affect the amount or timing of receipt of the Chimes Asset Sale purchase price; (ii) there was not as of the date of the Jefferies Broadview opinion, and there will not as a result of the consummation of the Chimes Asset Sale be, any default, or event of default, under any indenture, credit agreement or other material agreement or instrument to which Chimes or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates is a party; and (iii) all material assets and liabilities (contingent or otherwise, known or unknown) of the Chimes Business were as set forth in the consolidated financial statements provided to Jefferies Broadview as of the dates of such financial statements.

Jefferies Broadview noted in its opinion that the Company publicly announced in September 2005 that its Board of Directors had retained the services of Jefferies Broadview to assist the Company in exploring strategic alternatives, including the possible sale of all or certain parts of the Company. Jefferies Broadview also noted in its opinion that, at the Company's request, Jefferies Broadview contacted more than 50 parties during the eleven months prior to the date of the Jefferies Broadview opinion to solicit their interest in acquiring the Chimes Business.

The following is a brief summary of the material sources of information and valuation methodologies employed by Jefferies Broadview in rendering its opinion. These analyses were presented to the Board at its meeting on October 13, 2006. This summary includes the financial analyses used by Jefferies Broadview and deemed by it to be material, but does not purport to be a complete description of the analyses performed by Jefferies Broadview in arriving at its opinion. Except as otherwise expressly noted below, Jefferies Broadview did not explicitly assign any relative weights to the various factors and analyses considered. This summary of financial analyses includes information presented in tabular format. In order to fully understand the financial analyses used by Jefferies Broadview, the tables must be read together with the text of each corresponding summary. The tables alone do not constitute a complete description of the financial analyses performed.

Public Company Comparables Analysis

Jefferies Broadview considered ratios of market capitalization, adjusted for cash and debt when appropriate, to selected historical and projected operating metrics in order to derive multiples placed on a company in a particular market segment. In order to perform this analysis, Jefferies Broadview compared financial information of Chimes with publicly available information for a select group of companies comparable to Chimes based on market focus and business model. Jefferies Broadview reviewed the following seven public company comparables in the human resources business process outsourcing industry that are profitable and growing from a financial point of view (and which we refer to in this proxy statement as the Chimes Comparable Index):

1.: Paychex, Inc.;
2.: TALX Corporation;
3.: Automatic Data Processing, Inc.;
4.: Ceridian Corporation;
5.: Convergys Corporation;
6.: Hewitt Associates, Inc.; and
7.: Gevity HR, Inc.

The following table presents, as of October 12, 2006, the median multiples and the range of multiples for the companies contained in the Chimes Comparable Index of Total Enterprise Value, or TEV, which is defined as equity market capitalization plus total debt minus cash and cash equivalents, divided by selected operating metrics:

	Median Multiples	Range of Multiples
Trailing Twelve Months ("TTM")TEV/Revenue	2.12x	0.92x - 7.98x
TTM TEV/EBITDA	10.58x	6.93x - 18.64x
Projected 12/31/06 TEV/Revenue	2.04x	0.89x - 7.72x
Projected 12/31/06 TEV/EBITDA	9.45x	7.33x - 18.15x
Projected 12/31/07 TEV/Revenue	1.90x	0.78x - 6.77x
Projected 12/31/07 TEV/EBITDA	8.55x	5.88x - 15.85x

The following table presents, as of October 12, 2006, the median implied equity values for Chimes, calculated by using the multiples shown above and the appropriate Chimes metric. For analyses employing Chimes's TTM financials, Jefferies Broadview utilized figures for the TTM ended June 30, 2006, as reported by the Company in its Form 10-Q for such period.

	Median Implied Equity Value		Range of Implied Equity Values
	(Dollars in Thousands)
TTM TEV/Revenue	$	64,890	$28,060 - $243,674
TTM TEV/EBITDA	$	37,530	$24,590 - $ 66,124
Projected 12/31/06 TEV/Revenue	$	68,095	$29,682 - $257,855
Projected 12/31/06 TEV/EBITDA	$	47,857	$37,119 - $ 91,975
Projected 12/31/07 TEV/Revenue	$	76,051	$31,398 - $270,975
Projected 12/31/07 TEV/EBITDA	$	56,904	$39,162 - $105,474

No company included in the Chimes Comparable Index is identical to Chimes. In evaluating such comparables, Jefferies Broadview made numerous assumptions with respect to the human resources business process outsourcing industry's performance and general economic conditions, many of which are beyond the control of the Company. Mathematical analysis, such as determining the average, median or range, is not in itself a meaningful method of using comparable company data.

Transaction Comparables Analysis

Jefferies Broadview considered ratios of equity purchase price, adjusted for the seller's cash and debt when appropriate, to selected historical operating metrics in order to indicate the value strategic and financial acquirors have been willing to pay for companies in a particular market segment. In order to perform this analysis, Jefferies Broadview reviewed a number of transactions, including those involving companies deemed by Jefferies Broadview to be comparable to Chimes based on financial performance, market focus, business model and size. Jefferies Broadview reviewed six comparable merger and acquisition ("M&A") transactions announced from January 1, 2005 to October 12, 2006 involving sellers in the human resources business process outsourcing industry from a financial point of view, including each transaction's: Adjusted Price (which we refer to as equity price plus debt minus cash); seller TTM Revenue; and Adjusted Price/TTM Revenue ratio. These transactions were selected from Jefferies Broadview's proprietary database of published and confidential M&A transactions in the information technology, communications and media industries. These transactions consisted of the acquisitions of:

1.: Jon-Jay Associates, Inc. by TALX Corporation;
2.: Manpower Inc. (Manpower Business Solutions Service Center AB) by Tietoenator Oyj (Personec Group);
3.: Towers Perrin (Human Resources Outsourcing Unit) by Electronic Data Systems Corporation;
4.: Mellon Financial Corporation (HR Processing Division) by Affiliated Computer Services, Inc.;
5.: Regions Financial Corporation (Strategic Outsourcing Inc.) by Clarion Capital Partners, LLC through Management Buyout; and
6.: ClearPoint Business Resources, Inc. by Terra Nova Acquisition Corporation.

The following table presents, as of October 12, 2006, the median multiple and the range of multiples of Adjusted Price divided by the seller's TTM revenue for the transactions listed above:

		Median Adjusted Multiple		Range of Multiples
Adjusted Price / Revenue		1.16x		0.28x - 2.82x

The following table presents, as of October 12, 2006, the median implied equity value and the range of implied equity values of the Chimes Business, calculated by multiplying the multiples shown above by the appropriate the Chimes Business operating metric:

		Median Implied Equity Value			Range of Implied Equity Values
		(Dollars in Thousands)
Adjusted Price / Revenue		$	35,450		$8,430 - $86,239

No transaction utilized as a comparable in the transaction comparables analysis is identical to the Chimes Asset Sale. In evaluating the comparable transactions, Jefferies Broadview made numerous assumptions with respect to the human resources business process outsourcing industry's performance and general economic conditions, many of which are beyond the control of the Company. Mathematical analysis, such as determining the average, median or range, is not in itself a meaningful method of using comparable transaction data.

Consideration Of The Discounted Cash Flow Valuation Methodology

While discounted cash flow analysis is a commonly used valuation methodology, Jefferies Broadview did not employ such an analysis for the purposes of the Jefferies Broadview opinion. Discounted cash flow analysis is most appropriate for companies that exhibit relatively steady or somewhat predictable streams of future cash flow. For a company such as Chimes, with very limited intermediate and long-term visibility, a preponderance of the value in a valuation based on discounted cash flow will be in the terminal value of the entity, which is extremely sensitive to assumptions about the sustainable long-term growth rate of the Chimes Business. Given the lack of consistent and reliable long-term forecasts and the uncertainty in forecasting the product mix, operating performance, future cash flows and sustainable long-term growth rate for the Chimes Business, Jefferies Broadview considered a discounted cash flow analysis inappropriate for valuing the Chimes Business in the context of the Jefferies Broadview opinion.

The preparation of a fairness opinion is a complex process and is not necessarily susceptible to partial analysis or summary description. In arriving at its opinion, Jefferies Broadview considered the results of all of its analyses as a whole and, except as expressly noted above, did not attribute any particular weight to any analysis or factor considered by it. Furthermore, Jefferies Broadview believes that selecting any portion of its analysis, without considering all analyses, would create an incomplete view of the process underlying its opinion.

The Chimes Asset Sale purchase price and other terms of the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement were determined through negotiations between the Company and Axium, and were approved by the Board. Jefferies Broadview did not recommend any specific consideration to the Board or that any specific consideration constituted the only appropriate consideration with respect to the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Chimes Asset Sale. In addition, Jefferies Broadview's opinion and presentation to the Board was one of many factors taken into consideration by the Board in making its decision to approve and adopt the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement and approve the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Chimes Asset Sale. Consequently, the Jefferies Broadview analyses as described above should not be viewed as determinative of the opinion of the Board of Directors with respect to the value of the Chimes Business or whether the Board of Directors would have been willing to agree to different consideration.

Based upon and subject to the foregoing qualifications and limitations and those set forth below, Jefferies Broadview was of the opinion that, as of October 13, 2006, the Chimes Asset Sale purchase price to be received by the Company pursuant to the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement, was fair, from a financial point of view, to the Company.

Jefferies Broadview acted as financial advisor to the Board, received a customary fee from the Company upon delivery of its opinion and will receive an additional customary fee upon the successful conclusion of the Chimes Asset Sale. In addition, the Company has agreed to indemnify Jefferies Broadview and its affiliates and related parties in connection with its engagement, including liabilities under the Federal securities laws, and to reimburse certain of their expenses. Jefferies Broadview was not requested to provide, or to identify potential sources of, financing to the Company. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, no limitations were imposed on Jefferies Broadview by the Board with respect to the investigations made or procedures followed by Jefferies Broadview in rendering its opinion. In the ordinary course of their businesses, Jefferies and its affiliates may publish research reports regarding the securities of the Company, may actively trade or hold such securities for their own accounts and for the accounts of their customers and, accordingly, may at any time hold long or short positions in those securities.

Effect of the Asset Sales and the Plan of Complete Liquidation and Dissolution on Computer Horizons and our shareholders

•: The ultimate amount of our known, unknown and contingent debts and liabilities;
•: The fees and expenses incurred by us in the liquidation of our assets and the dissolution of our company; and
•: Whether the purchasers in the Asset Sales meet their obligations to perform and discharge the Computer Horizons obligations and liabilities assumed by them.

As a result, the amount of cash remaining following completion of our liquidation and dissolution could vary significantly from our current estimates. See "Computer Horizons Corp. Unaudited Condensed Pro Forma Liquidation Consolidated Balance Sheet."

If we successfully complete both Asset Sales, we expect that we will no longer be engaged in any business activities. Thereafter, in order to reduce expenses, Computer Horizons may seek to delist our common stock from trading on the Nasdaq Global Market and, if permitted by applicable law, to deregister our common stock from the public company reporting obligations under federal securities laws. Upon delisting there may no longer be a public market for the Company's common stock and upon deregistration our shareholders will no longer be entitled to receive annual reports, quarterly reports, current reports or other similar information from the Company under the federal securities laws. However, subsequent to any such deregistration, we and/or any liquidating trust to which our assets may be transferred may make financial information available to shareholders or holders of interests in any such trust, as the case may be, through press releases or other appropriate means, in the discretion of the Board or the trustees of any such trust.

distribution of proceeds may be in the form of a dividend, a return of capital or a self tender offer among other alternatives and is expected also to include net proceeds from the recent sale of our subsidiary, RGII Technologies, Inc.

Required Vote

All holders of Computer Horizons' common stock as of the record date are entitled to vote on Proposal No. 1. The affirmative vote of the holders two-thirds of the votes of all outstanding shares entitled to vote thereon is required to approve and adopt the Chimes Asset Sale and Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement. Abstentions and broker "non-votes" will have the same effect as votes against Proposal No. 1.

Recommendation of the Board of Directors with Respect to Proposal No. 1

The Board of Directors believes that the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement and the Chimes Asset Sale is fair to and in the best interests of the Company and our shareholders. Accordingly, the Board of Directors has unanimously approved the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement and the Chimes Asset Sale and recommends to our shareholders that they vote FOR the approval of Proposal No. 1.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE "FOR" PROPOSAL NO. 1.

Post-Closing Collection and Remittance of Accounts Receivable

The Company has agreed to promptly remit to TEKsystems any amounts collected by the Company or any of its affiliates (other than those entities transferred to TEKsystems) with respect to accounts receivable included in the transferred assets. TEKsystems has agreed to use reasonable efforts to collect, and to remit to the Company any amounts collected with respect to, accounts receivable related to the Business that were not included in the transferred assets and the Quebec Tax Receivable. TEKsystems has also agreed to take such other actions as the Company reasonably requests with respect to collection of the Quebec Tax Receivable. The TEKsystems Purchasers are entitled to keep 5%, and are obligated to remit to the Company 95%, of:

•: any collections TEKsystems makes within 60 days after the Commercial Services Asset Sale closing of accounts receivable included in the transferred assets that were aged over 180 days as of that closing; and
•: the aggregate of collections TEKsystems makes within 60 days after the Commercial Services Asset Sale closing of accounts receivable included in the transferred assets that were aged over 90 days and less than 181 days as of that closing, to the extent such collections exceed the aggregate amount of such receivables that are reserved as uncollectible for purposes of calculating the Company's net working capital as of that closing.

Non-Competition Agreement

The Company has also agreed, pursuant to a separate non-competition agreement, that neither the Company nor its affiliates will engage in the Commercial Services Business in the United States, Canada or India for a period of five years after the Commercial Services Asset Sale closing (other than the conduct and operation of the Chimes Business), and that the Company will maintain the confidentiality of confidential or proprietary information about the Commercial Services Business.

Exclusivity and "Fiduciary Out"

The Company has agreed that, except with respect to a Total Company Sale (that is, a merger or consolidation in which the Company is not the surviving entity or the acquisition of all or substantially all of the Company's assets or all of the Company's outstanding capital stock), the Company will not, without the prior written consent of TEKsystems: (1) solicit, initiate, facilitate or encourage, or furnish information with respect to any of the Company, in connection with any inquiry, proposal or offer with respect to an Alternative Transaction (as defined below); (2) negotiate, discuss, explore or otherwise communicate or cooperate in any way with any third person with respect to any Alternative Transaction; or (3) enter into any agreement, arrangement or understanding with respect to an Alternative Transaction or requiring any Company to abandon, terminate or refrain from consummating the Commercial Services Asset Sale. However, the Company may, in response to an unsolicited bona fide written inquiry, offer or proposal with respect to an Alternative Transaction furnish confidential or nonpublic information to (pursuant to a customary confidentiality agreement), and engage in discussions and negotiate with, the potential acquirer making such written inquiry, offer or proposal.

The Company is required to notify TEKsystems orally and in writing no later than 48 hours after receipt by the Company of any inquiry, offer or proposal with respect to an Alternative Transaction or Total Company Sale, including the identity of the potential acquirer and stating the terms thereof, and to keep TEKsystems reasonably informed of any material change in the status of any discussions or

negotiations with such potential acquirer and any material changes to the terms and conditions of such Alternative Transaction or Total Company Sale, and to promptly give TEKsystems a copy of any business or financial information related to any Company delivered to such potential acquirer which has not previously been reviewed by TEKsystems.

However, the Board of Directors may at any time prior to the effectiveness of the shareholders' approval, withdraw or modify its approval or recommendation of the Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement and the Commercial Services Asset Sale, or approve or recommend an Alternative Transaction or a Total Company Sale provided that, in the case of an Alternative Transaction: (A) an unsolicited bona fide written offer or proposal is made to the Company by a third party with respect to such Alternative Transaction and such offer or proposal for an Alternative Transaction is not withdrawn; (B) the Board determines in good faith, after consultation with its financial advisor, that such offer or proposal constitutes a Superior Alternative Transaction (as defined below); and (C) following consultation with outside legal counsel, the Board or a committee of disinterested directors determines that the withdrawal or modification of its approval or recommendation of the Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement or the Commercial Services Asset Sale is required to comply with the fiduciary duties of the Board to our shareholders.

As used in this proxy statement, "Alternative Transaction" means (other than the transactions contemplated by the Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement) a transaction involving the acquisition of all or a substantial portion of the assets to be transferred to TEKsystems (but not a material portion of any of the Company's other assets) whether through asset purchase, merger, consolidation or other business combination.

As used in this proxy statement, "Superior Alternative Transaction" means an Alternative Transaction on terms that the Board of Directors of the Company determines, in good faith, based upon consultations with its outside legal counsel and its financial advisor, that if consummated, is more favorable to our shareholders than the Commercial Services Asset Sale.

Post-Closing Transition

Pursuant to a separate transition services agreement, the Company will agree to provide certain transition services to TEKsystems for a period of up to four months after the Commercial Services Asset Sale closing. In addition, TEKsystems will grant a license to the Company, allowing the Company to use the "Computer Horizons" name for a period of up to nine months after the Commercial Services Asset Sale closing in connection with the winding-up of the Company, and as the Company's corporate name and domain name until liquidation or dissolution of the Company.

Other Covenants

The Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement contains certain other covenants and agreements of the parties with respect to, among other things:

•: using commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the requisite approval of the Company's shareholders;
•: press releases about the Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement or the Commercial Services Asset Sale;
•: honoring the existing confidentiality agreement between the Company and Allegis Group Services, Inc., an affiliate of Allegis;

•: equal sharing of any transfer or similar taxes on the transfer of the transferred assets.

In addition, the Company has agreed to afford TEKsystems' representatives, upon reasonable notice, access to the Company's assets, properties, officers, employees and books and records and to provide such financial and operating data and other information with respect to the Commercial Services Business as TEKsystems may reasonably request. The Company has agreed to turn over to TEKsystems all records related to the Commercial Services Business within 90 days after closing of the Commercial Services Asset Sale.

The Company has agreed that, from and after the Commercial Services Asset Sale closing, it will indemnify, defend, protect and hold harmless the TEKsystems Purchasers and their respective assigns, successors and affiliates from, against and in respect of all actions, claims, proceedings arbitration or suit or any appeal therefrom asserted against, and all damages, liabilities, losses, penalties, judgments, awards, costs or expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees or other reasonable out-of-pocket expenses) actually suffered, sustained, incurred or paid by, any of them in connection with, resulting from or arising out of:

actually suffered, sustained, incurred or paid by, any of them in connection with, resulting from or arising out of:

•: the breach of any representation or warranty of TEKsystems set forth in the Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement, any transfer document in connection therewith or TEKsystems' closing date compliance certificate (to the effect that TEKsystems' representations and warranties are true as of Commercial Services Asset Sale closing of the Commercial Services Asset Sale and the covenants required to be performed by TEKsystems on or before Commercial Business Asset Sale closing of the Commercial Services Asset Sale have been performed);

In addition, the aggregate liability of the Company, on the one hand, and TEKsystems, on the other hand, for indemnification claims under the Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement is limited, with respect to each of them, to a maximum amount of $10,000,000. Indemnification claims may not be asserted the Company, on the one hand, or TEKsystems, on the other hand, until the total aggregate cumulative amount of such claims exceeds $100,000, in which case the Company or TEKsystems, as the case may be, will be liable for the entire amount of such claims, including the $100,000 threshold amount (not to exceed the $10,000,000 cap described in the preceding sentence).

The Company has also agreed that it will maintain assets reasonably sufficient to satisfy its reasonably foreseeable indemnification obligations under the Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement at all times during the claims period and that it will not finally liquidate or dissolve prior to the end of the claims period unless a liquidating trust has assumed in writing all of the obligations of the Seller Parties under the Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement and the Company has given notice to Purchaser of such event.

Regulatory Approvals

The Company believes that no state or Federal regulatory approval is required in connection with the Commercial Services Asset Sale.

Appraisal Rights in Respect of the Asset Sales

Please see the discussion set forth under Proposal No. 1 for a description of appraisal rights that will apply in respect of both Asset Sales.

Consummation of Commercial Services Asset Sale not Conditioned on TEKsystems Obtaining Financing

Accounting Treatment

The Company will record the Commercial Services Asset Sale in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. Upon completion of the disposition the Company will recognize a financial reporting gain equal to the net proceeds (sum of purchase price less expenses of the sale) less the book value of the assets and liabilities sold.

Certain Federal Income Tax Consequences

The sale of the Company's and its affiliates assets pursuant to the Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement will be a taxable transaction with respect to the Company. The Company will realize gain or loss measured by the difference between the proceeds received by it and its affiliates on such sale and the Company's (or an affiliate's) tax basis in the assets. For purposes of calculating gain or loss, the proceeds received by the Company and its affiliates will include the cash received by them, the amount of their indebtedness that is cancelled or assumed, and any other consideration received by them for their assets. It is anticipated that the Company will have sufficient losses (including net operating loss carryforwards) to offset the gain expected to be realized from the Commercial Services Asset Sale for regular Federal income tax purposes, subjecting the Company only to Federal alternative minimum tax.

The Company does not expect that the Commercial Services Asset Sale will result in any Federal income tax consequences to its Shareholders. The subsequent liquidation and dissolution of the Company, however, may result in Federal income tax consequences for shareholders. Shareholder are urged to read carefully the information set forth under the caption "Approval of Proposal to Adopt Plan of Liquidation and Dissolution and to Liquidate and Dissolve the Company—Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Dissolution" and to consult their tax advisors for a full understanding of the tax consequences of the liquidation and dissolution for them.

Background of the Commercial Services Asset Sale

The current members of the Board of Directors and current senior executive officers of the Company took office in October 2005, as the result of a proxy contest led by shareholders of the Company who believed that the business decisions of the Company's prior directors and management were not maximizing the value of the Company. Immediately after taking office, the new Board and management began exploring strategic alternatives for the Company and its business units and requested Jefferies Broadview, which had been retained previously by the Company, to continue as the Company's financial advisor in that effort. With the Board's frequent and extensive consultation and guidance throughout a process extending many months, management and Jefferies Broadview considered a number of strategic alternatives for the Company and its businesses. This included an analysis of the operating history and prospects for growth of the Company as a whole and each business unit separately, including the Commercial Services Business.

In the course of the review, the Company and Jefferies Broadview contacted more than 45 parties that they believed might have an interest in entering into a strategic transaction to purchase the Commercial Services Business, either as part of a purchase of the Company as a whole or separately. Approximately 60% of the parties contacted were strategic buyers and the balance were financial buyers.

As a result of the contacts with potentially interested parties, the Company received a number of expressions of interest in evaluating a purchase of the Commercial Services Business and entered into non-disclosure agreements with several of the potentially interested parties, including Allegis, which executed and returned a non-disclosure agreement on January 6, 2006. Based on these initial contacts, Jefferies Broadview sent a letter to approximately 25 parties, including to Allegis on January 9, inviting them to submit, on or before January 23, 2006, initial indications of interest in acquiring the Company as a whole, or to acquire one or more of its business units. Thereafter, Jefferies Broadview sent similar letters to other potentially interested parties.

On January 9, 2006, Jefferies Broadview sent such a letter to representatives of another potential bidder that had expressed an interest in the Commercial Services Business only, or Other Bidder No. 1.

On January 20, 2006, Jefferies Broadview received a telephone call from a representative of Allegis indicating that Allegis had concluded it did not have an interest in pursuing a purchase of the entire Company.

On January 23, 2006, Other Bidder No. 1 submitted a preliminary indication of interest in purchasing the Commercial Services Business for $45 million.

On February 16, 2006 representatives of Allegis and Jefferies Broadview held a telephone conversation in which the Allegis representative indicated that Allegis had an interest in looking at the Company's business units individually and requested additional financial information on the individual business units. Jefferies Broadview asked Allegis to specify the information desired.

On February 16, 2006, representatives of Other Bidder No. 1 and Jefferies Broadview held a telephone conversation in which the other bidder's representative advised that they remained interested in purchasing the Commercial Services Business, but were not as interested as they had been in a cash transaction, stating a preference for the Company to first sell its Chimes and RGII Technologies businesses and then merge the remaining entity into Other Bidder No. 1 for stock.

On March 1, 2006, by telephone call to Jefferies Broadview, Allegis requested certain financial information for the Company's individual business units, which information was furnished shortly thereafter.

On March 10, 2006, Jefferies Broadview spoke with a representative of Allegis and requested a preliminary indication of interest for the Company's respective business units.

On March 13, 2006, Allegis submitted an indication of interest for each of the Commercial Services Business, Chimes and RGII Technologies, Inc., with value ranges expressed as multiples of "adjusted" EBITDA for each unit. On March 14, 2006, representatives of Jefferies Broadview and Allegis exchanged messages clarifying certain aspects of the indication of interest.

On March 14, 2006, Jefferies Broadview received an inquiry from another party, or Other Bidder No. 2, indicating a possible interest in acquiring the Commercial Services Business. On March 23, 2006, after several further conversations, Other Bidder No. 2 signed and returned a non-disclosure agreement and its representative participated in a management presentation with the Company.

On March 24, 2006, Allegis's representatives attended a meeting with the management of the Commercial Services Business and of Chimes.

On March 30, 2006, after several conversations between representatives of Other Bidder No. 2 and Jefferies Broadview, Other Bidder No. 2 submitted an indication of interest in purchasing the Commercial Services Business with a range of values from $30 million to $50 million. In subsequent telephone conversations, Other Bidder No. 2 indicated to Jefferies Broadview that Other Bidder No. 2 would likely value the Commercial Services Business at approximately $40 million or slightly higher, and would not be competitive if the price moved above $50 million.

On April 4, 2006, Other Bidder No. 2 attended a meeting with Company management.

On April 17, 2006 Jefferies Broadview sent a bid process letter to each of Other Bidder No. 1 and Other Bidder No. 2 requesting final indications of interest.

On April 18, 2006, Jefferies Broadview received a fax communication from Other Bidder No.1 and held a follow up telephone conversation with a representative of Other Bidder No. 1, in which Jefferies Broadview was advised that Other Bidder No. 1 had decided not to submit a bid for the Commercial Services Business.

On April 19, 2006, representatives of Allegis attended a meeting with the management of RGII.

On April 20, 2006. Allegis sent an email to Jefferies Broadview indicating that Allegis intended to submit an indication of interest for the Commercial Services Business only.

On April 21, 2006, Allegis submitted a final indication of interest in purchasing the Commercial Services Business for a price of $60 million to $63 million in cash and Other Bidder No. 2 submitted a final indication of interest in purchasing the Commercial Services Business for a price of $37 million to $42 million in cash.

Between April 20 and 27, 2006, representatives of Jefferies Broadview held several conversations with representatives of Other Bidder No. 1 concerning the Commercial Services Business and the possibility of Other Bidder No. 1 submitting a bid for the purchase of that business.

On May 1, 2006, Other Bidder No. 1 submitted a final indication of interest in purchasing the Commercial Services Business for a price of $17.5 million in cash.

Between April 21 and May 8, 2006, a representative of Other Bidder No. 2 had a number of conversations with Company management and indicated that Other Bidder No. 2 would be willing to pay as much as $60 million for the Commercial Services Business (despite its final indication of interest of $37 million to $42 million) and would also be interested in purchasing the entire Company. On May 9, 2006, representatives of Jefferies Broadview spoke with representatives of Other Bidder No. 2 and were told that its proposed price for the Commercial Services Business was in the mid-$50 million range and that any proposal to purchase the entire Company would be subject to a number of price adjustments to protect Other Bidder No 2 against exposure to unforeseen liabilities.

On May 10, 2006, a representative of Jefferies Broadview spoke by telephone with a representative of Other Bidder No. 1, and advised him that the Company had received bids higher than both the preliminary and final indications that had been submitted by Other Bidder No. 1 but that the Company would be receptive to a more competitive bid. The representative of Other Bidder No. 1 indicated that Other Bidder No. 1 would not be increasing its bid.

On May 12, 2006, representatives of Jefferies Broadview and Allegis held a telephone conversation in which the Allegis representative reiterated that Allegis was not interested in acquiring the Company as a whole, but was interested in moving quickly with respect to an acquisition of the Commercial Services Business and had sufficient availability of financing under existing facilities to effect such a transaction.

On May 12, 2006, representatives of Jefferies Broadview spoke by telephone with a representative of Other Bidder No. 2 and asked for more clarity as to how Other Bidder No. 2 proposed to finance a purchase, including asking for direct contact between Jefferies Broadview and the proposed financing source(s). On May 15, a representative of Jefferies Broadview had a conversation with Bidder No. 2's potential financing source regarding Other Bidder No. 2's financing.

On May 17, 2006, Jefferies Broadview advised Other Bidder No. 2 that, based on a number of factors, including price and certainty of closing, the Company had decided to grant exclusivity to another bidder.

On May 19, 2006, Jefferies Broadview sent to Allegis a copy of the Allegis indication of interest marked with the Company's comments and requested Allegis to draft a letter of intent based on the indication of interest as marked up.

On May 24, 2006, representatives of Allegis and Jefferies Broadview held a telephone conversation in which they discussed several issues raised by the Allegis indication of interest and the Company's markup, including among others the Company's comments that the letter of intent should state a flat purchase price, not a range of prices, and proposing a price of $63 million, and that a holdback in escrow of a portion of the purchase price provided for in the indication of interest should be eliminated. The Allegis representative responded that Allegis wanted to state a range of prices pending further due diligence concerning the Company and that Allegis would consider the possibility of a trade off between the purchase price and the escrow provision.

On May 25, 2006, Jefferies Broadview sent Allegis additional information, including April 2006 financial results for the Commercial Services Business and information on a tax receivable owing to the Company's Canadian subsidiary by the Province of Quebec.

On June 9, 2006 Allegis submitted a draft letter of intent to Jefferies Broadview, reflecting a flat purchase price, but decreased to $58 million, and an escrow of $5 million of the purchase price for six months. A representative of Allegis telephoned Jefferies Broadview to explain Allegis's analysis of various elements of the Commercial Services Business that, in their view, warranted the lower price. In the course of the conversation, the Allegis representative indicated that Allegis would consider a $55 million price with no holdback in lieu of the $58 million price and $5 million escrow holdback.

On June 12, 2006, representatives of the Company, Jefferies Broadview and Allegis held a further conversation on the letter of intent and the analysis behind the Allegis decision to lower the purchase price.

On June 19, 2006, Jefferies Broadview sent Allegis a revised draft of the letter of intent reflecting the Company's comments, prepared by outside counsel for the Company, including a revision of the purchase price to $59 million with no escrow.

On June 20, 2006, representatives of Jefferies Broadview held a telephone conversation with a representative of Allegis in which various open issues in the letter of intent were discussed, including the price. The Allegis representative indicated that Allegis would probably agree to a $57 million price with no escrow but would probably not go higher than that.

From June 21, 2006 to July 6, 2006, telephone conversations were held among representatives of Jefferies Broadview and Allegis and the respective outside legal counsel for the Company and Allegis, during the course of which the parties agreed to a price of $57 million dollars with no escrow and resolved other issues on the letter of intent and further revised drafts of the letter of intent were exchanged.

On July 6, 2006, the letter of intent was executed by Allegis and the Company.

On July 11, 2006, Allegis sent due diligence requests to Jefferies Broadview and from July 12, 2006 to August 15, 2006, Allegis conducted a detailed due diligence examination of the Commercial Services Business, including meetings and telephone calls between Company representatives and representatives of Allegis and Jefferies Broadview.

On July 27, 2006, outside counsel for Allegis sent a draft Asset Purchase Agreement to Jefferies Broadview.

On August 16, 2007, the Company and Allegis executed an amendment of the letter of intent extending the exclusivity period therein to September 15, 2006.

From August 17, 2006 to August 22, 2006, telephone conversations were held among representatives of Jefferies Broadview, Allegis and Allegis' outside accountants, and Company personnel and among representatives of the Company's Canadian subsidiary and Allegis's Canadian counsel, concerning various due diligence items.

On September 6, 2006, a revised draft of the Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement was sent to Allegis by the Company's outside counsel.

On September 15, 2006, a representative of Jefferies Broadview and a representative of the Company held a telephone conversation with representatives of Allegis in which they discussed progress to date and open issues on the draft Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement.

On September 19, 2006, representatives of the Company, Jefferies Broadview, Allegis and outside counsel for Allegis and the Company held a conference call in which they discussed outstanding issues on the draft Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement.

On September 20, 2006, representatives of Allegis and Jefferies Broadview exchanged e-mails concerning key employees of the Commercial Services Business and on October 2 and 3, 2006, Allegis requested monthly financial statements for July and August 2006, and other information.

On September 22, 2006, the letter of intent was amended to extend the exclusivity period to September 29, 2006.

On October 12, 2006, the letter of intent was amended to extend the exclusivity period to October 23, 2006.

On October 20, 2006, representatives of the Company and Allegis held a telephone call to discuss outstanding issues on the draft Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement.

From October 26, 2006 to November 6, 2006, representatives of the Company and Allegis and their respective United States and Canadian counsel held a number of telephone conversations concerning issues raised by various provisions of the draft Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement, and the Company and Allegis, with the assistance of their respective advisors, negotiated and agreed upon all outstanding issues in the draft Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement.

In telephone calls on November 1 and November 6, 2006, a representative of another potentially interested party that had previously expressed an interest in purchasing the entire Company advised Jefferies Broadview that they had an interest in purchasing the Commercial Services Business for between $50 million and $55 million, but indicated that they would not pay more than $55 million.

On November 7, 2006, the Company's Board met and considered the draft Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement with Allegis and the transactions contemplated thereby. At the meeting, Jefferies Broadview reviewed its financial analysis of the $57,000,000 in cash to be paid in the Commercial Services Asset Sale. Jefferies Broadview then rendered its oral opinion to the Company's Board with respect to the Commercial Services Asset Sale, subsequently confirmed in writing, that, as of November 7, 2006, based upon and subject to certain assumptions, qualifications, limitations and factors described in the Jefferies Broadview opinion, the $57,000,000 in cash to be received by the Company in the Commercial Services Asset Sale was fair, from a financial point of view, to the Company. After discussion, the Board unanimously approved the final form of the Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement with Allegis and the transactions contemplated thereby.

On November 7, 2006, Allegis, the Company and the other parties thereto entered into the Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement.

On November 8, 2006, the Company issued a press release announcing the Commercial Services Asset Sale.

In November 2006, the Company and Jefferies Broadview were contacted by a representative of another party (the "Other Party") expressing an interest in acquiring the Company after consummation of the Chimes Asset Sale. The Other Party was informed that any proposal that it might wish to make should be submitted to the Company in writing.

Thereafter, the Other Party sent a letter to the Company dated November 18, 2006, in which it proposed a transaction in which the Other Party, a public company, would acquire 100% of the Company's issued and outstanding stock for an unspecified price consisting of cash and shares of the Other Party's stock, using the Company's currently available cash and the cash proceeds of the Chimes Asset Sale, and requested certain nonpublic information about the Company in order to provide an indication of value.

In response to this inquiry, at the direction of the Company, Jefferies Broadview advised the Other Party that the Company could not respond to its inquiry without receipt of a specific written proposal containing the proposed purchase price for the Company, the breakdown between cash and stock and other details of their proposal.

Thereafter, the Company received another letter from the Other Party dated December 6, 2006 proposing a merger transaction in which the Company would be valued at a price in the range of approximately $5.25 for each share of Company common stock outstanding, payable in the form of cash and the Other Party's common stock with between $3.10 and $3.70 per share payable in cash and the balance payable in the Other Party's common stock. The cash payable in the transaction would consist in part of the Company's currently available cash and cash generated by the Chimes Asset Sale.

At a meeting of the Board of Directors held on December 11, 2006, the Board of Directors considered the Other Party's proposal as set forth in its December 6 letter. Since the proposal is subject to the consummation of the Chimes Asset Sale and the Company has no operations other than Chimes and the Commercial Services Business, the Other Party's proposal is a proposal to acquire the Commercial Services Business. As such, the Board determined that in order for it to recommend acceptance of such a proposal in lieu of the Commercial Services Asset Sale embodied in the Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement, it would have to determine that the Other Party's proposal constitutes a Superior Alternative Transaction within the meaning of the Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement.

After consideration of the Other Party's proposal and input from the Company's financial advisor concerning the Other Party, based on publicly-available information, and the Other Party's proposal, the Board concluded that: (1) the Other Party's proposal as set forth in the December 6 letter was not detailed or specific enough to permit the Board to determine that it constitutes a Superior Alternative Transaction and (2) even with greater detail, it seemed unlikely that a proposal from the Other Party along the lines of the December 6 letter could be fashioned so as to constitute a Superior Alternative Transaction. The Board's conclusions were based on a number of considerations, including the Board's judgment: (a) that the price "in the range of approximately $5.25 for each share" of the Company's common stock is both approximate and subject to change based on further due diligence; (b) that the payment of a substantial portion of the price in the Other Party's stock is unattractive for a number of reasons, including that the Other Party's stock is currently illiquid, making it very difficult for Company shareholders to sell the stock received by them in the transaction in material amounts without drastically reducing the stock price; (c) the Other Party's market capitalization is much smaller than the Company's current market capitalization; (d) consummation of the Other Party's proposal is subject to a number of conditions, including completion of the Chimes Asset Sale and, given the number of shares of stock the Other Party would need to issue to consummate the transaction as proposed, would require the approval of the Other Party's shareholders, and is potentially subject to other conditions not specified in the proposal letter, and (e) under the Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement, the Company is obligated to pay a termination fee of $2,000,000 if it accepts a Superior Alternative

Transaction. The Board was mindful of the fact that a transaction structured as a merger, as is the Other Party's proposal, would relieve the Company (and therefore its shareholders) of a portion of the winddown costs and liquidation expenses attendant upon a liquidation and dissolution, but concluded that any such savings do not outweigh the considerations set forth above.

Based on the foregoing, the Company has advised the Other Party that the Company does not believe that the Other Party's proposal as embodied in its letter of December 6, 2006 would be in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders.

Reasons for the Commercial Services Asset Sale

Our Board of Directors considered the risks and challenges facing the Commercial Services Business in the future as compared with the opportunities available to the Company from the continued operation of Commercial Services and concluded that sale of Commercial Services in accordance with the terms of the Commercial Services Asset Sale is the best alternative for maximizing value to our Shareholders.

In addition, our Board of Directors has determined that the Commercial Services Asset Sale represents an opportunity to sell the Commercial Services Business at an attractive valuation given current market conditions. In reaching its decision with respect to the Commercial Services Asset Sale, the Board considered the terms of the various transaction documents, the fact that the Commercial Services Asset Sale represents the best offer available after diligent efforts by the Company and Jefferies Broadview to secure additional offers, the absence of credible expressions of interest in purchasing the Company as a whole and a fairness opinion delivered to the Board by Jefferies Broadview described below. In light of the foregoing, the Board of Directors determined that, in its judgment, the Commercial Services Asset Sale is fair to and in the best interests of the Company and the Shareholders.

Opinion of Financial Advisor to the Board of Directors

Pursuant to a letter agreement dated as of October 27, 2005, the Company's Board of Directors requested that Jefferies Broadview render its opinion as to the fairness, from a financial point of view, to the Company of the right to receive the $57,000,000 Commercial Services Asset Sale purchase price for the Commercial Services Business Asset Sale provided for in the Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement. The Board selected Jefferies Broadview based on its reputation and experience in providing investment banking services, including merger and acquisition advisory services, to information technology, communications and media companies. At the Company's Board meeting on November 7, 2006, Jefferies Broadview rendered its oral opinion, subsequently confirmed in writing, that, as of November 7, 2006, based upon and subject to certain assumptions and limitations described in the Jefferies Broadview opinion, the right to receive the Commercial Services Asset Sale purchase price provided for in the Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement was fair, from a financial point of view, to the Company.

Jefferies Broadview's opinion, which describes the assumptions made, matters considered and limitations on the review undertaken by Jefferies Broadview, is attached Annex D to this proxy statement. The Company's shareholders are urged to, and should, read the Jefferies Broadview opinion carefully and in its entirety. Jefferies Broadview's opinion was directed solely to the Board and addresses only the fairness from a financial point of view of the Commercial Services Business purchase price to be received by the Company. The Jefferies Broadview opinion does not address any other aspect of the Commercial Services Asset Sale and does not constitute a recommendation to any shareholder of the Company or any other person as to how to vote or act with respect to the Commercial Services Asset Sale. The summary of the Jefferies Broadview opinion set forth in this proxy statement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of such opinion.

In connection with rendering its opinion, Jefferies Broadview, among other things:

•: reviewed a draft of the Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement dated as of November 2, 2006, which for purposes of the Jefferies Broadview opinion, Jefferies Broadview assumed to be identical in all material respects to the definitive Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement;
•: reviewed certain financial and other information about the Company that was publicly available;
•: reviewed information concerning Commercial and the Company furnished to Jefferies Broadview by the management of the Company, including certain internal financial forecasts and analyses, budgets, reports and other information;
•: held discussions with senior management of the Company regarding the importance of engaging in the Commercial Services Asset Sale in light of the Company's other business plans and strategic objectives;
•: reviewed the valuations of publicly traded companies in lines of business that Jefferies Broadview deemed comparable in certain respects to the Commercial Services Business;
•: reviewed, to the extent publicly available, the financial terms of selected acquisition transactions involving companies in lines of business that Jefferies Broadview deemed comparable in certain respects to the Commercial Services Business;
•: assisted in negotiations and discussions related to the Commercial Services Asset Sale; and
•: evaluated and assessed the offer submitted by the TEKsystems Purchasers.

In Jefferies Broadview's review and analysis and in rendering the Jefferies Broadview opinion, Jefferies Broadview assumed and relied upon, but did not assume any responsibility to independently investigate or verify, the accuracy, completeness and fair presentation of all financial and other information that was provided to Jefferies Broadview by the Company, or that was publicly available (including, without limitation, the information described above), or that was otherwise reviewed by Jefferies Broadview. Specifically, Jefferies Broadview also assumed, with the Company's permission, that the allocation of the Company's corporate expenses to Commercial provided to Jefferies Broadview by management of the Company accurately reflected the portion of such expenses directly applicable to Commercial, and that such allocated expenses represented a true cost of doing business for Commercial. The Jefferies Broadview opinion was expressly conditioned upon such information (whether written or oral) being complete, accurate and fair in all respects material to Jefferies Broadview's analysis.

With respect to the financial forecasts provided to Jefferies Broadview and examined by Jefferies Broadview, Jefferies Broadview noted that projecting future results of any company is inherently subject to uncertainty. The Company informed Jefferies Broadview, however, and Jefferies Broadview assumed, that such financial forecasts were reasonably prepared on bases reflecting the best currently available estimates and good faith judgments of the management of the Company as to the future performance of the Commercial Services Business. Jefferies Broadview expressed no opinion as to any financial forecasts or the assumptions on which they were made. In addition, in rendering the Jefferies Broadview opinion, Jefferies Broadview assumed that the Commercial Services Business would perform in accordance with the financial forecasts for Commercial for all periods specified therein. Although such financial forecasts did not form the principal basis for the Jefferies Broadview opinion, but rather constituted one of many items that Jefferies Broadview employed, changes to such financial forecasts could affect the Jefferies Broadview opinion.

Jefferies Broadview's opinion did not address the relative merits of the Commercial Services Asset Sale as compared to other business strategies that might have been available to the Company, nor did

it address the underlying business decision of the Company to proceed with the Commercial Services Asset Sale. Jefferies Broadview expressed no view as to the Federal, state or local tax consequences of the Commercial Services Asset Sale.

Jefferies Broadview's opinion was based upon market, economic, financial, and other conditions as they existed and could be evaluated as of the date of the Jefferies Broadview opinion. Jefferies Broadview further noted that although subsequent developments may affect its opinion, it had no obligation to update, revise or reaffirm the Jefferies Broadview opinion.

In its review, Jefferies Broadview did not obtain any independent evaluation or appraisal of the assets or liabilities of, nor did Jefferies Broadview conduct a comprehensive physical inspection of any of the assets of, the Commercial Services Business, nor was Jefferies Broadview furnished with any such evaluations or appraisals or reports of such physical inspections, nor did Jefferies Broadview assume any responsibility to obtain any such evaluations, appraisals or inspections. The Jefferies Broadview opinion was based on economic, monetary, regulatory, market and other conditions existing and which can be evaluated as of the date of the Jefferies Broadview opinion. Jefferies Broadview made no independent investigation of any legal or accounting matters affecting Commercial, and Jefferies Broadview assumed the correctness in all respects material to Jefferies Broadview's analysis of all legal and accounting advice given to the Company and its Board of Directors, including, without limitation, advice as to the legal, accounting and tax consequences of the terms of, and transactions contemplated by, the Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement.

In rendering its opinion, Jefferies Broadview also assumed with the Company's consent that: (i) the transactions contemplated by the Commercial Services Asset Sale would be consummated on the terms described in the Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement without any waiver of any material terms or conditions which would affect the amount or timing of receipt of the Commercial Services Asset Sale purchase price; (ii) there was not as of the date of the Jefferies Broadview opinion, and there will not as a result of the consummation of the Commercial Services Asset Sale be, any default, or event of default, under any indenture, credit agreement or other material agreement or instrument to which the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates is a party; and (iii) all material assets and liabilities (contingent or otherwise, known or unknown) of the Company were as set forth in the consolidated financial statements provided to Jefferies Broadview as of the dates of such financial statements.

the various factors and analyses considered. This summary of financial analyses includes information presented in tabular format. In order to fully understand the financial analyses used by Jefferies Broadview, the tables must be read together with the text of each corresponding summary. The tables alone do not constitute a complete description of the financial analyses performed.

Public Company Comparables Analysis

Jefferies Broadview considered ratios of market capitalization, adjusted for cash and debt when appropriate, to selected historical and projected operating metrics in order to derive multiples placed on a company in a particular market segment. In order to perform this analysis, Jefferies Broadview compared financial information of Commercial with publicly available information for a select group of companies comparable to Commercial based on market focus and business model. Jefferies Broadview reviewed from a financial point of view the following six public company comparables in the IT Staffing Services industry with Trailing Twelve Months, Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (which we refer to as EBITDA) Margin of less than 5% (which we refer to as the Commercial Comparable Index):

1.: CDI Corp.;
2.: COMFORCE Corporation;
3.: Volt Information Sciences, Inc.;
4.: Computer Task Group, Incorporated;
5.: Spherion Corporation; and
6.: Analysts International Corporation.

The following table presents, as of November 7, 2006, the median multiples and the range of multiples for the companies contained in the Commercial Comparable Index of Total Enterprise Value (which we refer to as TEV) which is defined as equity market capitalization plus total debt minus cash and cash equivalents, divided by selected operating metrics:

	Median Multiples	Range of Multiples
TTM TEV/Revenue	0.23x	0.17x - 0.37x
TTM TEV/EBITDA	7.78x	6.75x - 13.56x
Projected 12/31/06 TEV/Revenue	0.23x	0.19x - 0.37x
Projected 12/31/06 TEV/EBITDA	6.96x	6.84x - 9.96x
Projected 12/31/07 TEV/Revenue	0.21x	0.18x - 0.34x
Projected 12/31/07 TEV/EBITDA	6.11x	5.66x - 8.33x

The following table presents, as of November 7, 2006, the median implied equity values for Commercial, calculated by using the multiples shown above and the appropriate Commercial metric. For analyses employing Commercial's TTM financials, Jefferies Broadview utilized figures for the TTM ended September 30, 2006, as reported by the Company in its Form 10-Q for such period.

	Median Implied Equity Value		Range of Implied Equity Values
	(Dollars in Thousands)
TTM TEV/Revenue	$	42,206	$31,302 - $67,907
TTM TEV/EBITDA		NV	NV - NV
Projected 12/31/06 TEV/Revenue	$	42,850	$35,064 - $68,630
Projected 12/31/06 TEV/EBITDA	$	7,212	$7,093 - $10,326
Projected 12/31/07 TEV/Revenue	$	43,193	$36,195 - $68,990
Projected 12/31/07 TEV/EBITDA	$	10,612	$9,826 - $14,464

No company included in the Commercial Comparable Index is identical to Commercial. In evaluating such comparables, Jefferies Broadview made numerous assumptions with respect to the IT Staffing Services industry's performance and general economic conditions, many of which are beyond the control of the Company. Mathematical analysis, such as determining the average, median or range, is not in itself a meaningful method of using comparable company data.

Transaction Comparables Analysis

Jefferies Broadview considered ratios of equity purchase price, adjusted for the seller's cash and debt when appropriate, to selected historical operating metrics in order to indicate the value strategic and financial acquirors have been willing to pay for companies in a particular market segment. In order to perform this analysis, Jefferies Broadview reviewed a number of transactions, including those involving companies deemed by Jefferies Broadview to be comparable to Commercial based on financial performance, market focus, business model and size. Jefferies Broadview reviewed seven comparable merger and acquisition ("M&A") transactions announced from January 1, 2004 to November 6, 2006 involving sellers in the IT Staffing Services industry from a financial point of view, including each transaction's: Adjusted Price ("Adjusted Price" defined as Equity Price plus debt minus cash); seller TTM Revenue; and Adjusted Price/TTM Revenue ratio ("P/R"). These transactions were selected from Jefferies Broadview's proprietary database of published and confidential M&A transactions in the information technology, communications, healthcare technology and media industries.

These transactions consisted of the acquisitions of:

1.: iGate Mastech Ltd. by Brainhunter Inc.;
2.: Alternative Resources Corporation by Pomeroy IT Solutions, Inc.;
3.: Volante Group Ltd. by Commander Communications Limited;
4.: Venturi Partners, Inc. by COMSYS Holding, Inc.;
5.: RemedyTemp, Inc. by SELECT Personnel Services;
6.: RS Staffing Services, Inc. by TeamStaff, Inc.; and
7.: Canterbury Consulting Group, Inc. by CCG Group, Inc. (Management Buyout).

The following table presents, as of November 6, 2006, the median multiple and the range of multiples of Adjusted Price divided by the seller's TTM revenue for the transactions listed above:

		Median Adjusted Multiple		Range of Multiples
Adjusted Price / Revenue		0.25x		0.11x - 0.35x

The following table presents, as of November 6, 2006, the median implied equity value and the range of implied equity values of the Commercial Services Business, calculated by multiplying the multiples shown above by the appropriate Commercial Services Business operating metric:

		Median Implied Equity Value			Range of Implied Equity Values
		(Dollars in Thousands)
Adjusted Price / Revenue		$	45,305		$20,523 - $64,955

No transaction utilized as a comparable in the transaction comparables analysis is identical to the Commercial Services Asset Sale. In evaluating the comparable transactions, Jefferies Broadview made numerous assumptions with respect to the IT Staffing Services industry's performance and general

economic conditions, many of which are beyond the control of the Company. Mathematical analysis, such as determining the average, median or range, is not in itself a meaningful method of using comparable transaction data.

Consideration Of The Discounted Cash Flow Valuation Methodology

While discounted cash flow analysis is a commonly used valuation methodology, Jefferies Broadview did not employ such an analysis for the purposes of the Jefferies Broadview opinion. Discounted cash flow analysis is most appropriate for companies that exhibit relatively steady or somewhat predictable streams of future cash flow. For a business such as the Commercial Services Business, with very limited intermediate and long-term visibility, a preponderance of the value in a valuation based on discounted cash flow will be in the terminal value of the entity, which is extremely sensitive to assumptions about the sustainable long-term growth rate of the Commercial Services Business. Given the lack of consistent and reliable long-term forecasts and the uncertainty in forecasting the product mix, operating performance, future cash flows and sustainable long-term growth rate for the Commercial Services Business, Jefferies Broadview considered a discounted cash flow analysis inappropriate for valuing the Commercial Services Business in the context of the Jefferies Broadview opinion.

In performing its analyses, Jefferies Broadview made numerous assumptions with respect to industry performance and general business and economic conditions and other matters, many of which are beyond the control of the Company. The analyses performed by Jefferies Broadview are not necessarily indicative of actual values or actual future results, which may be significantly more or less favorable than suggested by such analyses. Jefferies Broadview made its determination as to fairness on the basis of its experience and professional judgment after considering the results of all such analyses. The foregoing summary does not purport to be a complete description of the analyses performed by Jefferies Broadview. Additionally, analyses relating to the value of businesses or securities are not appraisals. Accordingly, such analyses and estimates are inherently subject to substantial uncertainty. The Commercial Services purchase price and other terms of the Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement were determined through negotiations between the Company and TEKsystems, and were approved by the Board. Jefferies Broadview did not recommend any specific consideration to the Board or that any specific consideration constituted the only appropriate consideration with respect to the Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Commercial Services Asset Sale. In addition, Jefferies Broadview's opinion and presentation to the Board was one of many factors taken into consideration by the Board in making its decision to approve and adopt the Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement and approve the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Commercial Services Asset Sale. Consequently, the Jefferies Broadview analyses as described above should not be viewed as determinative of the opinion of the Board of Directors with respect to the value of Commercial or whether the Board of Directors would have been willing to agree to different consideration.

Based upon and subject to the foregoing qualifications and limitations and those set forth below, Jefferies Broadview was of the opinion that, as of November 7, 2006, the Commercial Services Asset Sale purchase price to be received by the Company pursuant to the Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement, was fair, from a financial point of view, to the Company.

Effect of the Asset Sales and the Plan of Complete Liquidation and Dissolution on Computer Horizons and our Shareholders

See "The Chimes Sale (Proposal No. 1)—Effect of the Asset Sales and the Plan of Complete Liquidation and Dissolution on Computer Horizons and our Shareholders."

Required Vote

Recommendation of the Board of Directors with Respect to Proposal No. 2

The Board of Directors believes that the Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement and the Commercial Services Asset Sale are fair to and in the best interests of the Company and our shareholders. Accordingly, the Board of Directors has unanimously approved the Commercial Services Asset Purchase Agreement and the Commercial Services Asset Sale and recommends to our shareholders that they vote FOR the approval of Proposal No. 2.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE "FOR" PROPOSAL NO. 2.

APPROVAL OF PROPOSAL TO ADOPT PLAN OF LIQUIDATION AND DISSOLUTION
AND TO LIQUIDATE AND DISSOLVE THE COMPANY
(PROPOSAL NO. 3)

Our Board of Directors unanimously approved the proposed plan of complete liquidation and dissolution of Computer Horizons (referred to herein as the "plan of complete liquidation and dissolution") on December 11, 2006, subject to the approval of our shareholders at the special meeting. The plan of complete liquidation and dissolution provides that upon its approval by our shareholders, the Board of Directors, without further action by the shareholders, may:

•: dissolve the Company;
•: liquidate our assets;
•: pay, or provide for the payment of, any remaining, legally enforceable obligations of the Company; and
•: distribute any remaining assets to the shareholders.

A copy of the proposed plan of complete liquidation and dissolution is attached as Annex E to this proxy statement.

Certain material features of the plan of complete liquidation and dissolution are summarized below. This summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the plan of complete liquidation and dissolution. A complete copy of the plan of complete liquidation and dissolution is attached to this proxy statement as Annex E. Shareholders should carefully read the plan of complete liquidation and dissolution and the accompanying statutory provisions in their entirety.

Liquidation and Dissolution Procedure

Following approval of the plan of complete liquidation and dissolution by our shareholders and consummation of the Asset Sales, we will the steps necessary to wind up our affairs described below at such times as the Board of Directors, in its absolute discretion, deems necessary, appropriate or advisable to maximize the value of our assets upon liquidation and we expect to file a certificate of dissolution with the Department of State of the State of New York. The dissolution will be effective on the effective date of such certificate. Once our certificate of dissolution is filed and effective, we will cease to conduct business except for the purpose of winding up our affairs.

Revocation of the Plan of Complete Liquidation and Dissolution

The plan of complete liquidation and dissolution provides that it may be revoked by Board of Directors. By approving the plan of complete liquidation and dissolution, shareholders will also be granting the Board of Directors the authority, notwithstanding the shareholder approval of the plan of complete liquidation and dissolution, to abandon the plan of complete liquidation and dissolution without further shareholder action, if the Board of Directors determines that liquidation and dissolution are not in the best interests of the Company and our shareholders.

Conduct of our Liquidation and Dissolution

In conducting our liquidation and dissolution, we will undertake the following tasks:

•: settle and close our business;
•: convert to cash, by sales, as much of our remaining non-cash assets as possible;
•: withdraw from any jurisdiction where we are qualified to do business;
•: pay or make provision for the payment of all of our expenses and liabilities;

•: prosecute and defend lawsuits, if any;
•: distribute our remaining assets, which should be primarily cash, but which may consist of other financial assets, to the shareholders; and
•: do any other act necessary to wind up and liquidate our business and affairs.

Our Board of Directors and our remaining officers will oversee our liquidation and dissolution. As compensation for the foregoing, our remaining officers will continue to receive salary and benefits as determined by Board of Directors. We also anticipate that members of Board of Directors will receive compensation during this period, although the form and amount of such compensation has not been finally determined.

Sale of any Remaining Assets

The plan of complete liquidation and dissolution gives the Board of Directors, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the authority to sell all of our assets. Accordingly, shareholder approval of the plan of complete liquidation and dissolution will constitute, to the fullest extent permitted by law, approval of our sale of any and all of our remaining assets, on such terms and conditions as Board of Directors, in its absolute discretion and without further shareholder approval, may determine.

Payment of Claims and Obligations

Before distributing any assets to shareholders, we will pay and discharge, or make provisions as will be reasonably likely to provide sufficient compensation for, the following:

•: all claims and obligations, including all contingent, conditional or unmatured contractual claims known to us;
•: any claim against the Company which is the subject of a pending action, suit or proceeding to which we are a party; and
•: claims that have not been made known to us or that have not arisen, but that, based on facts known to us, are likely to arise or become known to us after the certificate of dissolution become effective.

At any time after dissolution, Section 1007 of the New York Business Corporation Law allows us to give a notice requiring all creditors and claimants, including any with unliquidated or contingent claims and any with whom we have unfulfilled contracts, to present their claims in writing and in detail at a specified place and by a specified day, which shall not be less than six months after the first publication of such notice. Section 1007 has requirements concerning the manner and frequency of such publication. The claim of any such person and all other claims which are not timely filed as provided in such notice except claims which are the subject of litigation on the date of the first publication of such notice, and all claims which are so filed but are disallowed by a court under Article 10 of the New York Business Corporation Law, shall be forever barred as against the corporation, its assets, directors, officers and shareholders, except to such extent, if any, as the court may allow them against any remaining assets of the corporation in the case of a creditor who shows satisfactory reason for his failure to file his claim as so provided.

Distributions to Shareholders

Claims, liabilities and expenses from operations, including operating costs, salaries, income taxes, payroll and local taxes, and miscellaneous office expenses, will continue to be incurred following approval of the plan of complete liquidation and dissolution. We anticipate that expenses for professional fees and other expenses of liquidation may be significant. These expenses will reduce the amount of assets available for ultimate distribution to shareholders.

Before making any distribution to shareholders, the Board of Directors must first make adequate provision for the payment, satisfaction and discharge of all known, unknown, or contingent debts and liabilities, including costs and expenses incurred and anticipated to be incurred in connection with the sale of any assets remaining after the certificate of dissolution are filed.

Our Board of Directors will determine, in its sole discretion and in accordance with applicable law, the timing, the amount and kind of, and the record date for, any distribution made to shareholders. Liquidating distributions will be made to shareholders on a pro rata basis. We will reserve assets in a contingency reserve deemed by management and the Board of Directors to be adequate to provide for such liabilities and obligations. Although the Board of Directors has not established a firm timetable for any distribution to shareholders, the Board of Directors expects to make a substantial distribution as promptly as practicable after consummation of the Asset Sales and, subject to exigencies inherent in winding up our business, to make further distributions thereafter.

•: The ultimate amount of our known, unknown and contingent debts and liabilities;
•: The fees and expenses incurred by us in the liquidation of our assets and the dissolution of our company; and
•: Whether the purchasers in the Asset Sales meet their obligations to perform and discharge the Computer Horizons obligations and liabilities assumed by them.

As a result of the foregoing, no assurance can be given as to the ultimate amounts to be distributed, or the timing of any distributions. See "Computer Horizons Corp. Unaudited Condensed Pro Forma Liquidation Consolidated Balance Sheet."

The Board is currently exploring various alternatives with respect to the treatment of outstanding stock options in connection with the liquidation and dissolution of the Company. The effect of the treatment of stock options has been taken into account in the Company's estimate of the aggregate amount that may be distributed to shareholders referred to in this proxy statement.

Shareholders should not send their stock certificates with the enclosed proxy. Shareholders will be sent additional instructions for receiving distributions.

Liquidating Trusts

Although no decision has been made, if deemed advisable by Board of Directors for any reason, we may, following dissolution, transfer any of our assets to one or more trusts established for the benefit of shareholders, subject to the claims of creditors. Thereafter, these assets will be sold or

distributed on terms approved by the trustees. Our Board of Directors is authorized to appoint one or more trustees of each liquidating trust and to cause the Company to enter into a liquidating trust agreement with the trustee(s) of each such trust on such terms and conditions as may be approved by Board of Directors. Shareholder approval of the plan of complete liquidation and dissolution will also constitute approval of any such appointment and any liquidating trust agreement.

Potential Creditor Claims if Reserves Insufficient

Accounting Treatment

Upon our dissolution, we plan to change our basis of accounting from the going-concern basis which contemplates realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the normal course of business to the liquidation basis. Under the liquidation basis of accounting, assets are stated at their estimated net realizable values and liabilities are stated at their estimated settlement amounts. Recorded liabilities will include the estimated costs associated with carrying out the plan of complete liquidation and dissolution. For periodic reporting, a statement of net assets in liquidation will summarize the liquidation value per outstanding share of common stock. Valuations presented in the statement will represent management's estimates, based on present facts and circumstances, of the net realizable values of assets and costs associated with carrying out the plan of complete liquidation and dissolution based upon management assumptions.

The valuation of assets and liabilities will necessarily require many estimates and assumptions, and there will be substantial uncertainties in carrying out the provisions of the plan of complete liquidation and dissolution. Ultimate values of assets and settlement amounts for liabilities are expected to differ from estimates recorded in interim statements.

Regulatory Matters

Except for the consent of the state tax commission of the State of New York prior to our filing the certificate of dissolution with the Department of State of New York, we are not subject to any Federal or state regulatory requirements, nor are we required to obtain any Federal or state approval in order to consummate the dissolution.

Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Dissolution

The following discussion is a general summary of the material U.S. Federal income tax consequences of the liquidation and dissolution of the corporation pursuant to the plan of complete liquidation and dissolution to Computer Horizons and its shareholders, but does not purport to be a complete analysis of all the potential tax effects. The discussion addresses neither the tax consequences that may be relevant to particular categories of investors subject to special treatment under certain U.S. Federal income tax laws (such as dealers in securities, banks, insurance companies, tax-exempt organizations, and foreign individuals and entities) nor any tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, local or foreign jurisdiction.

The discussion is based upon the Code, Treasury Regulations, administrative rulings and judicial decisions now in effect, all of which are subject to change at any time, either prospectively or retrospectively, by legislative, administrative or judicial action. The following discussion has no binding effect on the Internal Revenue Service, or IRS, or the courts. No ruling has been requested from the IRS with respect to the anticipated tax treatment of the liquidation and dissolution of the corporation pursuant to the plan of complete liquidation and dissolution, and we will not seek an opinion of counsel with respect to the anticipated tax treatment summarized herein. There is no assurance that any liquidating trust, if created, will be treated as a liquidating trust for Federal income tax purposes or that the distributions made pursuant to the plan of complete liquidation and dissolution, if any, will be treated as liquidating distributions. If any of the conclusions stated herein proves to be incorrect, the result could be increased taxation to Computer Horizons and/or its shareholders, thus reducing the benefit to Computer Horizons and its shareholders from the liquidation and dissolution.

U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences to Computer Horizons

Even if we liquidate, we will continue to be subject to tax on our taxable income until the liquidation and dissolution is complete (i.e., until all of our remaining assets have been distributed to our shareholders or the liquidating trust). We will recognize gain or loss upon any liquidating distribution of property to shareholders or to the liquidating trust as if such property were sold to our shareholders or the liquidating trust. Ordinarily, corporate gain or loss (unless certain exceptions to loss recognition apply) is recognized in an amount equal to the amount of such gain or loss, which will equal the difference between our adjusted tax basis for each asset and the asset's fair market value on the date of distribution. It is anticipated that Computer Horizons will not incur any material tax liability from either both Asset Sales or any asset distribution.

U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences to our Shareholders

Our shareholders will not recognize any gain or loss for tax purposes as a result of a sale by us of our assets, including both Asset Sales pursuant to the amended and restated asset purchase agreement. If we effect the dissolution and liquidate, a shareholder will recognize gain or loss equal to the difference between (i) the sum of the amount of money and the fair market value of property (other than money) distributed to such shareholder directly or to the liquidating trust on the shareholder's behalf, and (ii) such shareholder's tax basis for his or her shares of common stock. A shareholder's tax basis in his or her shares will generally equal the shareholder's cost for his or her shares of common stock. The gain or loss will be a capital gain or loss, assuming the common stock is held as a capital asset. Long-term capital gain realized by a shareholder that is an individual, estate or trust is generally taxed at a maximum rate of 15%. A capital gain or loss will be long term with respect to stock that has been held by a shareholder for more than one year. Capital losses can generally be used to offset capital gains and, for individuals, estates or trusts, up to $3,000 of ordinary income. The tax basis of any property other than cash received by each shareholder upon our complete liquidation will be the fair market value of the property at the time of the distribution.

If we effect the dissolution and liquidate, shareholders may receive one or more liquidating distributions, including a deemed distribution of cash and property transferred to the liquidating trust. A shareholder's gain or loss will be computed on a "per share" basis so that gain or loss is calculated separately for blocks of stock acquired at different dates and different prices. Each liquidating distribution will be allocated proportionately to each share of stock owned by a shareholder. Gain will be recognized in connection with a liquidating distribution only to the extent that the aggregate value of all liquidating distributions received by a shareholder with respect to a share exceeds such shareholder's tax basis for that share. If the amount of the distributions is less than the shareholder's basis in his or her shares of common stock, the shareholder will generally recognize a loss in the year the final distribution is received by the shareholder or by the liquidating trust on behalf of the shareholder.

If we effect the dissolution and liquidate, we will, at the close of each taxable year, provide shareholders and the IRS with a statement of the amount of cash and our best estimates of the fair market value of any property distributed to the shareholders (or transferred to the liquidating trust) during that year as determined by us, at such time and in such manner as required by the Treasury Regulations.

U.S. Income Tax Consequences of a Liquidating Trust

If we transfer assets to the liquidating trust in connection with the dissolution, we intend to structure such trust so that shareholders will be treated for tax purposes as having received a distribution at the time of transfer of their pro rata share of money and the fair market value of property other than money transferred to the liquidating trust, reduced by the amount of known liabilities assumed by the liquidating trust or to which the property transferred is subject, and then having contributed such property to the trust. The distribution will be treated as a distribution in liquidation of the shareholder's common stock. The effect of the distribution on a shareholder's tax basis in his or her shares of common stock is discussed above in "—U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences to our Shareholders."

Upon formation of a liquidating trust, shareholders, as owners of the trust, must take into account for U.S. Federal income tax purposes their pro rata portion of any income, expense, gain or loss recognized by the liquidating trust. The income, expense, gain or loss recognized by the liquidating trust will not affect the shareholder's basis in his or her common stock.

As a result of the transfer of property to a liquidating trust and the ongoing activities of the liquidating trust, shareholders should be aware that they may be subject to tax whether or not they have received any actual distributions from the liquidating trust with which to pay such tax. The liquidating trust itself should not be subject to income tax.

U.S. Income Tax Consequences of Backup Withholding

Unless a shareholder complies with certain reporting and/or certification procedures or is an exempt recipient under applicable provisions of the Code and Treasury Regulations, he, she or it may be subject to back-up withholding tax with respect to any payments received under the liquidation. The back-up withholding tax is imposed at a rate of 28%. Back-up withholding generally will not apply to payments made to some exempt recipients such as a corporation or financial institution or to a shareholder who furnishes a correct taxpayer identification number or provides a certificate of foreign status and provides certain other required information. If back-up withholding applies, the amount withheld is not an additional tax, but is credited against the shareholder's U.S. Federal income tax liability.

Certain U.S. State and Local Income Tax Consequences of Dissolution

We may be subject to liability for state and local taxes with respect to the sale of assets. Shareholders may also be subject to liability for state and local taxes with respect to the receipt of liquidating distributions and their interests in the liquidating trust. State and local tax laws may differ in various respects from Federal income tax law. Shareholders should consult their tax advisors with respect to the state and local tax consequences of the proposed liquidation and dissolution pursuant to the plan of complete liquidation and dissolution.

Taxation of Other Non-United States Shareholders

Foreign corporations or persons who are not citizens or residents of the United States should consult their tax advisors with respect to the U.S. and non-U.S. tax consequences of the proposed liquidation and dissolution pursuant to the plan of complete liquidation and dissolution.

Taxation Generally

The foregoing summary of certain income tax consequences is included for general information only and does not constitute legal advice to any shareholder. The tax consequences of the proposed liquidation and dissolution pursuant to the plan of complete liquidation and dissolution may vary depending upon the particular circumstances of the shareholder. We recommend that each shareholder consult his or her own tax advisor regarding the tax consequences of the proposed liquidation and dissolution pursuant to the plan of complete liquidation and dissolution.

Required Vote

All holders of Computer Horizons' common stock as of the record date are entitled to vote on Proposal No. 3. The affirmative vote of the holders of two-thirds of the votes of all outstanding shares entitled to vote thereon is required to approve and adopt the plan of complete liquidation and dissolution and to approve the liquidation and dissolution of the Company. Abstentions and broker "non-votes" will have the same effect as votes against Proposal No. 3.

Recommendation of our Board of Directors and Reasons for the Dissolution

On December 11, 2006, our Board of Directors concluded unanimously that the plan of complete liquidation and dissolution is in the best interests of our shareholders under the current circumstances, authorized and approved the plan of complete liquidation and dissolution, and recommended that our shareholders approve it.

The Board's recommendation to liquidate and dissolve Computer Horizons is based on:

•: assuming the successful consummation of both Assets Sales, we will have no remaining operations; and
•: the desire of the Board of Directors to provide shareholders with an opportunity to liquidate their investment in the Company.

Our Board of Directors has identified and considered a number of potentially negative factors in their deliberations concerning the proposed liquidation and dissolution of the company, including that such course of action forecloses Computer Horizons from entering into any future strategic business transaction that could enhance shareholder value should any such transaction arise and be successfully consummated, the potential loss of benefits to shareholders of remaining investors in a publicly traded "shell" company, and that a dissolution necessarily has the effect of liquidating each shareholder's investment in the company. After due consideration, our board concluded that no reasonable business alternatives currently exist for Computer Horizons and that the potential benefits of the proposed dissolution to our shareholders outweigh the potential disadvantages associated with the proposed dissolution. If Computer Horizons were to continue in existence, it would continue to incur accounting, legal and other expenses in connection with its required filings with the SEC, and its day-to-day operations. The Board has determined that the benefit to our shareholders of receiving cash pursuant to an orderly liquidation of Computer Horizons over time outweighs any potential for future development of a profitable business opportunity by Computer Horizons, particularly in view of the Board's extensive efforts to identify and implement strategic and financial alternatives for the company during the past year. In addition, any potential future transaction would give rise to additional accounting, legal and financial advisory expenses for the company with no assurance that such transaction could be completed on terms favorable to our shareholders.

OUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE "FOR" PROPOSAL NO. 3.

ADJOURNMENT OF THE SPECIAL MEETING (PROPOSAL NO. 4)

The Company may ask its shareholders to vote on a proposal to adjourn the special meeting, if necessary or appropriate, in order to allow for the solicitation of additional proxies if there are insufficient votes at the time of the meeting to approve and adopt any of Proposal Nos. 1, 2 or 3.

Required Vote

Recommendation of our Board of Directors

Our Board of Directors has concluded unanimously that the adjournment proposal is in the best interests of our shareholders and recommends that shareholders approve Proposal No. 4.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE "FOR" PROPOSAL NO. 4.

INTERESTS OF CERTAIN PERSONS IN MATTERS TO BE ACTED UPON

ELECTION OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS
FOLLOWING OCTOBER 2005 PROXY CONTEST

On July 22, 2005, a group comprised of Crescendo Partners II, L.P., Series R, Crescendo Investments II, LLC, Eric Rosenfeld, F. Annette Scott Florida Trust, Richard L. Scott Florida Trust, Scott Family Florida Partnership Trust, Richard L. Scott, Stephen T. Braun and The Computer Horizons Full Value Committee, or the Full Value Committee, filed a Schedule 13D with the SEC disclosing their opposition to the Company's previously announced proposed merger with Analysts International Corporation a Minnesota Corporation, or Analysts, and their intention to solicit the Company's shareholders to vote against the Company's proposals in furtherance of such merger.

In the Schedule 13D, the Full Value Committee disclosed its intention to call a special meeting of the Company's shareholders in order to remove up to all of the Company's existing directors and to replace them with the Full Value Committee's own slate of director nominees. At the Company's special meeting of shareholders held on September 2, 2005, the Company's shareholders voted not to approve the proposals related to the proposed merger with Analysts and, as such, the proposed merger with Analysts was not consummated.

On July 27, 2005, the Company received from the Full Value Committee a request that a special meeting of the shareholders of the Company be called for the following purposes: (i) to remove all of the existing directors serving on the Company's Board of Directors without cause, (ii) to fix the number of members comprising the Board at five, and (iii) to elect five director nominees selected by the Full Value Committee.

NOTES TO CHIMES HISTORICAL CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

1. Basis of Presentation

Financial statements of Chimes, Inc. are presented as of the nine months ended September 30, 2006, September 30, 2005, and the years ended December 31, 2005, December 31 2004, and December 31, 2003. Chimes is a wholly owned subsidiary of Computer Horizons Corp. Included are the Chimes condensed consolidated balance sheet, the condensed consolidated statements of operations, the condensed consolidated statement of cash flows, and the condensed consolidated statements of equity which includes Chimes and its wholly owned subsidiaries. These statements have been prepared by the Company without audit. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for all periods presented have been made.

It is suggested that these Chimes consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the Computer Horizons Corp. (CHC) financial statements and notes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005 filed by the CHC, the September 30, 2006 and September 30, 2005 financial statements included in the quarterly report of CHC on Form 10-Q. The results from operations for the periods ended September 30, 2006 and 2005 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the respective full years.

2. Cash

Included in cash and cash equivalents is restricted cash as outlined below. Restricted cash represents funds received by Chimes and held in client-specific bank accounts, to be used to make payments to vendors of the applicable client. Cash and cash equivalents also include cash to be disbursed to Chimes vendors in accordance with the client payment terms.

Restricted Cash		167		204		219		191		2,157
Other Vendor Cash		11,845		21,093		29,400		2,100		3,864

Total Cash and Cash Equivalents	$	16,445	$	23,315	$	32,893	$	8,025	$	8,377

3. Revenue

Chimes recognizes revenue on a transaction fee basis. The Chimes service offering aggregates the suppliers of temporary workers to the customer and renders one invoice to the customer. Upon payment from the customer, Chimes deducts a transaction fee and remits the balance of the client payment to the applicable vendors. Chimes recognizes only the fee for the service as revenue, not the aggregate billing to the customer. The gross amount of the customer invoicing is not considered revenue nor a receivable to Chimes because there is no earnings process for the gross amount and by contract terms, Chimes is not obligated to pay the vendor until paid by the customer.

4. Income Taxes

In accordance with Accounting for Income Taxes-an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (FIN 18), the Company has recorded its quarterly tax provision using the effective tax rate. The Company has determined that this method will yield a more reliable tax provision calculation due to

the inclusion of the valuation allowance created during the prior year for the discontinued operations. This is a change from the prior year method as the Company was able to determine an annual effective tax rate during the year ended December 31, 2005. Accordingly, the Company is not in a position to disclose its projected December 31, 2006 annual effective tax rate but will update the actual 2006 quarterly effective tax rate in the subsequent reporting periods.

For the third quarter ended September 30, 2006, the Company calculated its actual effective tax rate to be 2.4%. For the third quarter ended September 30, 2005, the Company calculated its actual effective tax rate to be 0.4%.

5. Restructuring Charges

During 2003, the Company recorded restructuring charges of approximately $245,000 relating to the closing of several Chimes offices in the United States, and the United Kingdom. During 2004, an additional $466,684 was recorded relating to severance costs in these same locations. As of December 31, 2005 all severance costs were fully paid. The remaining lease obligations relate to a single location in London, which lease has continuing obligations until January 26, 2013.

6. Corporate Allocation

Corporate services consisting of general and administrative services are provided from a centralized location by Computer Horizons to its business segments, including Chimes. Such costs are allocated to the applicable segments based on a combination of services received and segment revenue. Allocations may not be indicative of costs incurred if Chimes was a stand alone business.

7. Legal Matters

The Company is involved in various and routine litigation matters, which arise through the normal course of business. Management believes that the resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position or results of operations.

NOTES TO CHIMES, INC. UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED
CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Pro forma adjustments reflect only those adjustments which are supportable and directly attributable to the transaction and do not include the impact of contingencies. Pro forma adjustments include the following ($ in thousands):

Sale of Chimes:

(a): To record cash proceeds consisting of $80 million consideration, net of transaction costs of $3 million.
(b): To record operating cash of $4,433,000 not included in the sale of Chimes.
(c): Adjustments represent the impact to the consolidated provision for the sale of the assets for Chimes, Inc. The consolidated provision was recalculated based upon the proforma income before income taxes as presented above. The proforma income was determined as if Chimes, Inc. was no longer part of the consolidated group. When preparing the proforma provision calculation, the Company assumed that all categories of permanent and temporary tax differences, as originally stated in the tax provision from December 31, 2003 to September 30, 2006, would have remained with the Company.

Other assumptions made with respect to the calculation of the provision:

1.: As of September 2006, the stand alone operations of Chimes, Inc. would not have been required to report a valuation allowance as the operations had cumulative income for the past three years, as outlined within Financial Accounting Standard 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. This is a different result with respect to the remaining operations of Computer Horizons as the Company maintained a full valuation allowance at this time.
2.: Note that as of September 30, 2006, the Company is presenting the proforma balance sheet as if the Company would have been required to accrue and pay Federal, State and Foreign income taxes and record the applicable deferred taxes associated with its normal operations. As the stand alone Chimes, Inc. would have been profitable during the 2005 and 2006, there would not have been a net operating loss available to the operations to offset current taxable income. This is a different result with respect to the remaining operations of Computer Horizons as the Company has certain net operating losses available to offset taxable income.

(d): Adjustment to Equity of $81,348,000 consists of net assets Computer Horizons sold to Axium International of $4,666,000, plus retained cash of $4,433,000, less the tax adjustment of $85,000 and the pro-forma estimated pre-tax gain as of September 30, 2006 on sale of Chimes of $72,334,000. The sale of the Company's affiliate's assets pursuant to the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement will be a taxable transaction with respect to the Company to the extent that any gain or loss is realized. The Company will realize gain or loss measured by the difference between the proceeds received by it and its affiliates on such sale and the Company's (or an affiliate's) tax basis in the assets. For purposes of calculating gain or loss, the proceeds received by the Company and its affiliates will include the cash received by them, the amount of their indebtedness that is cancelled or assumed, and any other consideration received by them for their assets. It is anticipated that the Company will have sufficient current losses to offset most of the gain expected to be realized from the Chimes Asset Sale for regular Federal income tax purposes and otherwise incur approximately $1.3 million in alternative minimum taxes. The Company and/or its affiliates may be subject to state income taxes to the extent that gains exceed losses for state tax law purposes, but does not anticipate

that such taxes, if any, will be significant. Based upon current projections, such state taxes are estimated to be approximately $1 million after taking into account the availability of state losses to offset the gain.

(e): To adjust previously allocated corporate general expenses. The adjustment was made following the sale of the Company's Federal Division, RGII, to NetStar, Inc. on September 29, 2006, to remove RGII specific legal expense originally incurred at corporate on behalf of RGII, and then reallocate the revised corporate expense to the Chimes. Adjustments to the corporate allocation to RGII are as follows:

NOTES TO COMMERCIAL HISTORICAL CONSOLIDATED
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(unaudited)

1. Basis of Presentation

Financial statements of the Computer Horizons Corp. ("CHC") Commercial Services Division ("Commercial") are presented as of the nine months ended September 30, 2006, September 30, 2005, and the years ended December 31, 2005, December 31 2004, and December 31, 2003. Commercial is an operating division of CHC. Included are the Commercial consolidated balance sheet, the consolidated statements of operations, the statement of cash flows, and a statement of equity which includes Commercial and its wholly owned subsidiaries. These statements have been prepared by the Company without audit. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (which include normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for all periods presented have been made.

It is suggested that these Commercial consolidated financial statements be read in conjunction with the CHC financial statements and notes thereto included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2005 filed by CHC, and the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and September 30, 2005 financial statements included in the quarterly report of CHC on Form 10-Q. The results from operations for the periods ended September 30, 2006 and 2005 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the respective full years.

Background

The Commercial business consists of providing technology consultants to large organizations on a temporary hire basis and is classified in two general categories, staff augmentation and solutions work. For the quarter ended September 30, 2006, this segment represented approximately 85% of total revenues from continuing operations, including $30 million of staff augmentation revenue and $15 million of commercial solutions revenue. For nine months ended September 30, 2006, this segment represented approximately 85% of total revenues, including $93 million of staff augmentation revenue and $43 million of commercial solutions revenue.

For staff augmentation assignments, the consultant work is supervised and managed by the customer. Staff augmentation tends to be a lower risk, lower gross margin business with very competitive pricing. The Company's solutions work tends to be higher margin, higher risk business, due to the fact that the Company is responsible for project deliverables and other conditions contained in statements of work and/or contracts with clients. Virtually all projects performed by the Commercial solutions group are IT related and consist of practices such as application development, outsourcing arrangements, government services, technology training and managed services.

The Company's customer relationships are memorialized in master agreements that address the terms and conditions that define the client engagement. Depending on the service to be performed for the client, either a task order (in the case of a staffing engagement) or a Statement of Work ("SOW") (in the case of a solutions engagement) is generated. The SOW is signed by both the Company and the customer. In general, no solutions work is done unless there is a SOW because the SOW provides the technical details of the work to be done. The SOW, although falling under the corresponding master agreement, is a stand-alone binding contractual document, typically outlining the project objectives, describing the personnel who will work on the project, describing phases of the project, the timeframes for work performance, and the rate of compensation. In the event that the parameters of the project expand or otherwise change, a Project Change Request is implemented to memorialize whatever change has occurred to the deliverables, personnel and/or time and materials. The master agreements,

101

in conjunction with the SOWs, are written to define, with as much detail as possible, the client relationship and all aspects of the work to be performed for the client. With regard to revenues expected in future periods, each SOW has a defined term or sets forth the anticipated length of a project. Where a client engagement is on-going, like certain "Help Desk" type services, the master agreements would still have a term length, but would recite that the agreement was renewable. Generally, commercial solutions engagements are for a year or less. Staff augmentation engagements can and do last for more than a year, with variations in the number of consultants being provided at any given time. Staffing engagements are generally cancelable by clients with a two to four week notice period.

2. Cash

The Commercial Division has historically financed its operations through cash generated from operations, borrowings against bank lines of credit and the public sale of its common stock. Because Commercial cash is managed by CHC Corporate and the bank accounts are not separately maintained for this division, and because cash is not a part of the assets to be sold to the Allegis Group, these amounts are presented in CHC Corporate rather than Commercial for all periods presented.

3. Revenue

Commercial recognizes staff augmentation and solutions revenues either on a time-and-materials basis or on a fixed fee basis. Under a typical time-and-materials billing arrangement, customers are billed on a regularly scheduled basis, such as biweekly or monthly. At the end of each accounting period, revenue is estimated and accrued for services performed since the last billing cycle. These unbilled amounts are billed the following month.

For fixed fee contracts, revenue is recognized on the basis of the estimated percentage of completion. Each fixed fee contract has different terms, milestones and deliverables. The milestones and deliverables primarily relate to the work to be performed and the timing of the billing. At the end of each reporting period an assessment of revenue recognized on the percentage of completion and milestones achieved criteria is made. If it becomes apparent that estimated cost will be exceeded or required milestones or deliverables will not have been obtained, an adjustment to revenue and/or costs will be made. The cumulative effect of revisions in estimated revenues and costs are recognized in the period in which the facts that give rise to the impact of any revisions become known.

Unbilled accounts receivable represent amounts recognized as revenue based on services performed in advance of customer billings principally on a time-and-materials basis. At the end of each accounting period, revenue is accrued for services performed since the last billing cycle. For solutions contracts, unbilled revenues occur when the contractual criteria for billing are met after the final quarterly billing cycle. These unbilled amounts are billed the following month.

4. Montreal Centre Refundable Tax Credit

The Quebec Government through Invest Quebec has granted the Montreal Outsourcing Centre ("MOC") a 35% refundable tax credit ("The Program") on certain qualifying job positions in Information Technology. The Program has been available to the MOC since 2002.

102

5. Evaluation of Bad Debt Reserve

The Commercial Division determines its allowance by considering a number of factors, including the length of time trade accounts receivable are past due, previous loss history, the customer's current ability to pay its obligation to the Company and the condition of the general economy and the industry as a whole. Commercial writes off accounts receivable when they become uncollectible, and payments subsequently received on such receivables are credited to the allowance for doubtful accounts.

6. Goodwill

In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 141 "Business Combinations" ("FAS 141"), and Financial Accounting Standards No. 142 "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets" ("FAS 142"), all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 must be accounted for under the purchase method. In addition, all intangible assets acquired that are obtained through contractual or legal right, or are capable of being separately sold, transferred, licensed, rented or exchanged are recognized as an asset apart from goodwill. Goodwill and intangibles with indefinite lives are not subject to amortization, but are subject to at least an annual assessment for impairment by applying a fair value based test.

Goodwill in the Commercial Services Business was impaired and recorded a non-cash charge of $20.3 million, related to the write-off of Commercial Solutions.

7. Comprehensive Income/(Loss)

Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 130, "Reporting Comprehensive Income" (FAS 130), requires that items defined as other comprehensive income/ (loss), such as foreign currency translation adjustments and unrealized gains and losses, be separately classified in the financial statements and that the accumulated balance of other comprehensive income/ (loss) be reported separately from retained earnings and additional paid-in capital in the equity section of the balance

sheet. The components of comprehensive loss for the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and 2005 and the years ended December 31, 2005, 2004 and 2003 are as follows:

	Nine Months Ended					Years Ended December 31,

8. Income Taxes

In accordance with Accounting for Income Taxes-an interpretation of FASB Statement No. 109 (FIN 18), the Company has recorded its quarterly tax provision using the actual effective tax rate. The Company has determined that this method will yield a more reliable tax provision calculation due to the inclusion of the valuation allowance created during the prior year (see note below). This is a change from the prior year method as the Company was able to determine an annual effective tax rate during the year ended December 31, 2005. Accordingly, the Company is not in a position to disclose its

104

projected December 31, 2006 annual effective tax rate but will update the actual 2006 quarterly effective tax rate in the subsequent reporting periods. If the Company utilizes its existing net operating losses, in a jurisdiction by jurisdiction basis, additional tax provisions could be recorded in the remaining quarter of the year.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2006 and September 30, 2005, the Company has an actual effective tax rate of 0%. This is due to a loss from continuing operations and continued maintenance of a full valuation allowance against the Company's deferred tax assets.

Deferred Tax Asset and Valuation Allowance

The Company records deferred tax assets for the future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statement carrying amounts of existing assets and their respective tax bases, and operating loss carryforwards. Deferred tax assets are reduced by a valuation allowance if, based on available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, management considers the scheduled reversal periods of the deferred tax assets, whether sustained profitability has been achieved and tax planning strategies.

The Company has significant deferred tax assets resulting from net operating loss carryforwards, capital loss carryforwards, and deductible temporary differences that may reduce taxable income in future periods. The Company has provided full valuation allowances on the future tax benefits related to capital losses, foreign net operating losses, and all state net operating losses. The Company believes that the valuation allowance is appropriate because these deferred tax assets have relatively short carryforward periods or relate to taxing jurisdictions which do not allow the filing of consolidated tax returns. The Company expects to continue to maintain a valuation allowance on these deferred tax assets until an appropriate level of profitability has been achieved in the applicable taxing jurisdictions, or strategies are developed that would enable the Company to conclude that it is more likely than not that a portion of these deferred tax assets will be realized.

In prior years, management relied primarily on future projected income in assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets resulting from federal net operating loss carryforwards and other deductible temporary differences. As of December 31, 2005, it was determined that because of continued losses through the fourth quarter of the prior year, it was no longer appropriate to rely on future projected income until sustained profitability has been achieved. Accordingly, the Company recorded a full valuation allowance on its remaining net deferred tax assets for the year end and quarter end, respectively.

9. Restructuring Charges

During 2003, the Company recorded restructuring charges of approximately $817,000 relating to the closing of several offices in the United States and Canada. During 2004, an additional $1,282,000 was recorded relating to additional severance costs and lease obligations in these same locations. As of December 31, 2005 all of these severance costs were fully paid, and an additional $410,000 in severance and $530,000 in lease obligations was booked for the United States and Canada. The lease obligation is calculated based on current rent commitments, less an estimated sublease amount.

NOTES TO COMMERCIAL SERVICES BUSINESS
PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Sale of Commercial Services Business:

(a) To record cash proceeds consisting of $57 million consideration less an estimated Working Capital adjustment (using September 30, 2006 balances) of $600,642, net of transaction costs of $2 million.

(b) To record assets not included in the sale of the Commercial Services Business, consisting of a refundable tax credit of $7,672,000. The Quebec Government ("Revenu Quebec") through Invest Quebec has granted the Montreal Outsourcing Centre a refundable tax credit on certain qualifying job positions in Information Technology. This Program has been available to the MOC since 2002. To date tax refunds have been collected for 2002, 2003 and 2004. The refund is received in cash net of any taxes owing. The main categories qualified for the Program are salary and vacation pay.

(c) Adjustment to Equity of $62,071,000 consists of net assets Computer Horizons sold to Allegis Group, Inc. of $25,688,000, plus net assets retained of $7,672,000, and the pro-forma estimated pre-tax gain as of September 30, 2006 on sale of the Commercial Services Business of $28,711,000. The sale of the Commercial Services Business assets pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement will be a taxable transaction with respect to the Company to the extent that any gain or loss is realized. The Company will realize gain or loss measured by the difference between the proceeds received by it and its affiliates on such sale and the Company's (or an affiliate's) tax basis in the assets. For purposes of calculating gain or loss, the proceeds received by the Company and its affiliates will include the cash received by them, the amount of their indebtedness that is cancelled or assumed, and any other consideration received by them for their assets. It is anticipated that the Company will have sufficient current losses to offset most of the gain expected to be realized from the Commercial Services Asset Sale for regular Federal income tax purposes and otherwise incur approximately $134,000 in alternative minimum taxes. The Company and/or its affiliates may be subject to state income taxes to the extent that gains exceed losses for state tax law purposes, but does not anticipate that such taxes, if any, will be significant.

(d) To adjust previously allocated corporate general expenses. The adjustment was made following the sale of the Company's Federal Division, RGII, to NetStar, Inc. on September 29, 2006, to remove RGII specific legal expense originally incurred at corporate on behalf of RGII, and then reallocate the revised corporate expense to the Commercial Services Business. Adjustments to the corporate allocation to RGII are as follows:

NOTES TO COMMERCIAL SERVICES BUSINESS
PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Continued)

Tax Provision Disclosure—Pro Forma Assumptions

(e) Adjustments represent the impact to the consolidated provision for the sale of the assets for Commercial. The consolidated provision was recalculated based upon the Pro Forma income before income taxes as presented above. The Pro Forma income was determined as if Commercial was no longer part of the consolidated group.

Other assumptions made with respect to the calculation of the provision:

As of December 31, 2002 the stand alone operations of Commercial would have been required to report a valuation allowance as the operations had cumulative losses for the past three years, as outlined within Financial Accounting Standard 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. This is a similar result with respect to the remaining operations of Computer Horizons Corp. as the Company maintained a full valuation allowance at this time.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CHIMES, INC. AND

COMMERCIAL SERVICES BUSINESS COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Sale of Chimes, Inc.:

(a): To record cash proceeds consisting of $80 million consideration, net of transaction costs of $3 million.
(b): To record operating cash of $4,433,000 not included in the sale of Chimes.
(c): Adjustments represent the impact to the consolidated provision for the sale of the assets for Chimes, Inc. The consolidated provision was recalculated based upon the pro forma income before income taxes as presented above. The pro forma income was determined as if Chimes, Inc. was no longer part of the consolidated group. When preparing the pro forma provision calculation, the Company assumed that all categories of permanent and temporary tax differences, as originally stated in the tax provision from December 31, 2003 to September 30, 2006, would have remained with the Company.

Other assumptions made with respect to the calculation of the provision:

1.: As of September 2006, the stand alone operations of Chimes, Inc. would not have been required to report a valuation allowance as the operations had cumulative income for the past three years, as outlined within Financial Accounting Standard 109, Accounting for Income Taxes. This is a different result with respect to the remaining operations of Computer Horizons as the Company maintained a full valuation allowance at this time.
2.: Note that as of September 30, 2006, the Company is presenting the pro forma balance sheet as if the Company would have been required to accrue and pay Federal, State and Foreign income taxes and record the applicable deferred taxes associated with its normal operations. As the stand alone Chimes, Inc. would have been profitable during the 2005 and 2006, there would not have been a net operating loss available to the operations to offset current taxable income. This is a different result with respect to the remaining operations of Computer Horizons as the Company has certain net operating losses available to offset taxable income.

(d): Adjustment to Equity of $81,348,000 consists of net assets Computer Horizons sold to Axium International of $4,666,000, plus retained cash of $4,433,000, less the tax adjustment of $85,000 and the pro-forma estimated pre-tax gain as of September 30, 2006 on sale of Chimes of $72,334,000. The sale of the Company's affiliate's assets pursuant to the Chimes Asset Purchase Agreement will be a taxable transaction with respect to the Company to the extent that any gain or loss is realized. The Company will realize gain or loss measured by the difference between the proceeds received by it and its affiliates on such sale and the Company's (or an affiliate's) tax basis in the assets. For purposes of calculating gain or loss, the proceeds received by the Company and its affiliates will include the cash received by them, the amount of their indebtedness that is cancelled or assumed, and any other consideration received by them for their assets. It is anticipated that the Company will have sufficient current losses to offset most of the gain expected to be realized from the Chimes transaction for regular Federal income tax purposes and otherwise incur approximately $1.3 million in alternative minimum taxes. The Company and/or its affiliates may be subject to state income taxes to the extent that gains exceed losses for state tax law purposes, but does not anticipate

123

(e): To adjust previously allocated corporate general expenses. The adjustment was made following the sale of the Company's Federal Division, RGII, to NetStar, Inc. on September 29, 2006, to remove RGII specific legal expense originally incurred at corporate on behalf of RGII, and then reallocate the revised corporate expense to the Chimes. Adjustments to the corporate allocation to RGII are as follows:

		Corporate Allocation		RGII Legal Expense		Total Adjustment

	12/31/2005	$	1,809	$	443	$	1,366

Sale of Commercial Services Business:

(f): To record cash proceeds consisting of $57 million consideration less an estimated Working Capital adjustment (using September 30, 2006 balances) of $600,642, net of transaction costs of $2 million.
(g): To record assets not included in the sale of the Commercial Services Business, consisting of a refundable tax credit of $7,672,000 from the Quebec government. The Quebec Government ("Revenu Quebec") through Invest Quebec has granted the Montreal Outsourcing Centre a refundable tax credit on certain qualifying job positions in Information Technology. This Program has been available to the MOC since 2002. To date tax refunds have been collected for 2002, 2003 and 2004. The refund is received in cash net of any taxes owing. The main categories qualified for the Program are salary and vacation pay.
(h): Adjustment to Equity of $62,071,000 consists of net assets Computer Horizons sold to Allegis Group, Inc. of $25,688,000, plus net assets retained of $7,672,000, and the pro-forma estimated pre-tax gain as of September 30, 2006 on sale of the Commercial Services Business

124

of $28,711,000. The sale of the Commercial Services Business assets pursuant to the Asset Purchase Agreement will be a taxable transaction with respect to the Company to the extent that any gain or loss is realized. The Company will realize gain or loss measured by the difference between the proceeds received by it and its affiliates on such sale and the Company's (or an affiliate's) tax basis in the assets. For purposes of calculating gain or loss, the proceeds received by the Company and its affiliates will include the cash received by them, the amount of their indebtedness that is cancelled or assumed, and any other consideration received by them for their assets. It is anticipated that the Company will have sufficient current losses to offset most of the gain expected to be realized from the Commercial Services Asset Sale for regular Federal income tax purposes and otherwise incur approximately $134,000 in alternative minimum taxes. The Company and/or its affiliates may be subject to state income taxes to the extent that gains exceed losses for state tax law purposes, but does not anticipate that such taxes, if any, will be significant.

(i): To adjust previously allocated corporate general expenses. The adjustment was made following the sale of the Company's Federal Division, RGII, to NetStar, Inc. on September 29, 2006, to remove RGII specific legal expense originally incurred at corporate on behalf of RGII, and then reallocate the revised corporate expense to the Commercial Services Business.

Notes related to the Liquidation Estimates and Analysis

Uncertainties as to the precise net value of assets and the ultimate amount of liabilities make it impossible to predict the actual net amount that will ultimately be available for distribution to shareholders. The actual amount of cash available for distribution following dissolution and liquidation will depend on a number of factors, several of which are outside the control of the company. The liquidation balance sheet does not consider any amounts, if any, that may have to be paid under the indemnity provisions of the Asset Sale agreements. In addition, the balance sheet assumes that the balance sheet at the time of the closing will approximate the September 30, 2006 balance sheet.

As a result of the above, the amount of cash remaining following completion of dissolution and liquidation could vary significantly from current estimates.

The beginning pro forma balance sheet is taken from information appearing elsewhere in this document

Pursuant to General Instruction B(2) and (6) of Form 8-K, the portions of such reports submitted under Items 2.02 are not deemed to be "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Exchange Act or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section. We are not incorporating by reference those portions of such report that are not deemed to be "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Exchange Act, and will not incorporate by reference those portions of future filings of reports on Form 8-K into a filing under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act or into this proxy statement that are not deemed to be "filed" for purposes of Section 18 of the Exchange Act.

All documents filed by the Company under Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act, after the date hereof and before the date of the special meeting are deemed to be incorporated by reference into and to be a part of this proxy statement from the date of filing of those documents.

131

Any person, including any beneficial owner, to whom this proxy statement is delivered may request copies of reports, proxy statements or other information concerning us, including any information incorporated into this proxy statement by reference, without charge, by written or telephonic request directed to us at 49 Computer Horizons Corp., 49 Old Bloomfield Avenue, Mountain Lakes, NJ 07046-1495, Telephone: (973) 402-7986, Attention: Secretary.

No persons have been authorized to give any information or to make any representations other than those contained in this proxy statement and, if given or made, such information or representations must not be relied upon as having been authorized by us or any other person. You should not assume that the information contained in this proxy statement is accurate as of any date other than the date on which this proxy statement is first mailed to Shareholders, and the mailing of this proxy statement to Shareholders shall not create any implication to the contrary.

OTHER MATTERS

The SEC has adopted rules that permit companies and intermediaries, such as brokers, to satisfy delivery requirements for proxy statements with respect to two or more shareholders sharing the same address by delivering a single proxy statement addressed to those shareholders. This process, known as "householding," potentially means extra convenience for shareholders and cost savings for companies. In connection with this proxy solicitation, a number of brokers with customers who are our shareholders will be "householding" our proxy materials unless contrary instructions have been received from the customers. We will promptly deliver, upon oral or written request, a separate copy of the proxy statement to any shareholder sharing an address to which only one copy was mailed. Requests for additional copies should be directed to Computer Horizons Corp., Attention: Secretary.

Once a shareholder has received notice from his or her broker that the broker will be "householding" communications to the shareholder's address, "householding" will continue until the shareholder is notified otherwise or until the shareholder revokes his or her consent. If, at any time, a shareholder no longer wishes to participate in "householding" and would prefer to receive separate copies of the proxy statement, the shareholder should so notify his or her broker. Any shareholder who currently receives multiple copies of the proxy statement at his or her address and would like to request "householding" of communications should contact his or her broker or, if shares are registered in the Shareholder's name, or the Company at the address or telephone number provided above.

REQUEST TO SIGN, DATE AND RETURN PROXIES

If you do not intend to be present at the special meeting on February 14, 2007 please sign, date and return the enclosed proxy card at your earliest convenience or follow the instructions for telephone or Internet voting detailed thereon.

(d) Governmental Consents; Permits. Except pursuant to the HSR Act and as set forth on Schedule 4.2(d), no action, waiver or consent by any Governmental Authority is necessary to make this Agreement and the Seller Agreements, as appropriate, valid instruments binding upon Seller in accordance with their respective terms and Seller is not required to submit any notice, report or other filing with any Governmental Authority in connection with the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement or any of the Seller Agreements, except where the failure to do so would not have a Seller Material Adverse Effect. The Permits listed on Schedule 1.1(a)(v) are all of the permits necessary to sell the products and services of the Business being sold as of the date hereof.

(e) Conflicts; Absence of Default. Neither the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement or any of the Seller Agreements by Seller, nor the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement by CHC, nor the consummation by Seller or CHC of the transactions contemplated by such documents to which it is a party, nor compliance by Seller or CHC with any of the provisions of such documents to which it is a party will (i) in the case of Seller, conflict with or violate Seller's Certificate of Incorporation or bylaws, and in the case of CHC, conflict with or violate CHC's Certificate of Incorporation or bylaws; (ii) conflict with or violate any Law applicable to the Business or any of the Property, which would have a Seller Material Adverse Effect; or (iii) breach, conflict with, violate or cause a default under any material contract, license or agreement, permit, instrument, or obligation (the "Seller Contracts") to which Seller or any of its assets is or may be bound, except for any such breach, conflict, violation or default which would not reasonably be expected to cause a Seller Material Adverse Effect. Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Seller Agreements, in the case of Seller, nor the execution and delivery of this Agreement, in the case of CHC, nor the consummation by Seller or CHC of the transactions contemplated by such documents to which it is a party will require any consent, waiver, approval, exemption, registration, declaration, license, authorization or permit of, or filing with or notification to, any other person or entity, except for the HSR Act (as herein defined) and such consents, waivers, approvals, exemptions, registrations, declarations, licenses authorizations, permits, filings or notifications which have been obtained or are listed on Schedule 4.2(e), or which, if not obtained or made, will not allow for the termination, cancellation or acceleration of any obligation to repay under, any of the terms, conditions or provisions of any Contract or obligation. Seller's inability to obtain consents to the assignment of Contracts to Buyer shall not constitute a breach or default of any provision of this Agreement. Neither the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement or any of the Seller Agreements by Seller, nor the execution, delivery or performance of this Agreement by CHC, nor the consummation by Seller or CHC of the transactions contemplated by such documents to which it is a party, nor compliance by Seller or CHC with any of the provisions of such documents to which it is a party, will constitute a default (in and of itself or with the giving of notice, passage of time or both) under the Seller Contracts, or result in the creation or imposition of any encumbrance upon, or giving to any other party or parties any claim, interest or right including rights of termination or cancellation in, or with respect to, the Business or Property, which would have a Seller Material Adverse Effect; or result in the loss of any license, franchise or legal privilege possessed by Seller or give a right of termination to any party to any agreement or other instrument to which Seller is a party or by which any of the Property or the Business is bound, which would have a Seller Material Adverse Effect.

A-20

Section 7.2 Indemnification of CHC and Seller. Subject to the limitations contained in this Article VII, both Axium and Buyer, jointly and severally, agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless Seller and CHC from and against any and all Losses which, directly or indirectly, arise out of, result from or relate to any inaccuracy in or any breach of any representation and warranty, or any breach of any covenant or agreement, of Axium or Buyer contained in this Agreement or in any documents or other papers delivered pursuant to this Agreement, provided that a claim for indemnity is asserted on or before the expiration of six (6) months after the Closing Date, provided that the indemnification liability of Axium and Buyer to Seller and CHC under this Article VII shall not exceed the aggregate amount of eight million dollars ($8,000,000) and that neither Seller nor CHC shall make any claim for indemnification by Axium and Buyer until the total claims for indemnification of Seller or CHC are at least two hundred fifty thousand dollars ($250,000).

Section 7.3 Method of Asserting Claims. The party making a claim under this Article VII is referred to as the "Indemnified Party" and the party against whom such claims are asserted under this Article VII is referred to as the "Indemnifying Party." All claims by any Indemnified Party under this Article VII shall be asserted and resolved as follows:

(a) In the event that any claim or demand for which an Indemnifying Party would be liable to an Indemnified Party hereunder is asserted against or sought to be collected from such Indemnified Party by a third party, said Indemnified Party shall with reasonable promptness, but in no event later than thirty (30) days after knowledge of the claim or demand, notify in writing the Indemnifying Party of such claim or demand, specifying the basis for such claim or demand, and the amount or the estimated amount thereof to the extent then determinable (which estimate shall not be conclusive of the final amount of such claim and demand; the "Claim Notice"); provided, however, that any failure to give such Claim Notice will not be deemed a waiver of any rights of the Indemnified Party except to the extent the rights of the Indemnifying Party are actually prejudiced by such failure. The Indemnifying Party, upon request of the Indemnified Party, shall retain counsel (who shall be reasonably acceptable to the Indemnified Party) to represent the Indemnified Party and shall pay the reasonable fees and disbursements of such counsel with regard thereto, provided, however, that any Indemnified Party is hereby authorized prior to the date on which it receives written notice from the Indemnifying Party designating such counsel, to retain counsel, whose reasonable fees and expenses shall be at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, to file any motion, answer or other pleading and take such other action which it reasonably shall deem necessary to protect its interests or those of the Indemnifying Party until the date on which the Indemnified Party receives such notice from the Indemnifying Party. After the Indemnifying Party shall retain such counsel, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to retain its own counsel, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such Indemnified Party unless (x) the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party shall have mutually agreed to the retention of such counsel or (y) the named parties in any such proceeding (including any impleaded parties) include both the Indemnifying Party and the Indemnified Party and representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate due to actual or potential differing interests between them. The Indemnifying Party shall not, in connection with any proceedings or related proceedings in the same jurisdiction, be liable for the fees and expenses of more than one such firm for the Indemnified Party (except to the extent the Indemnified Party retained counsel to protect its (or the Indemnifying Party's) rights prior to the selection of counsel by the Indemnifying Party.) If requested by the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnified Party agrees to cooperate with the Indemnifying Party and its counsel in contesting any claim or demand which the Indemnifying Party defends. A claim or demand may not be settled by the Indemnifying Party without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld) unless, as part of such settlement, the Indemnified Party shall receive a full and unconditional release reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party.

A-21

(b) In the event any Indemnified Party shall have a claim against any Indemnifying Party hereunder which does not involve a claim or demand being asserted against or sought to be collected from it by a third party, the Indemnified Party shall send a Claim Notice with respect to such claim to the Indemnifying Party.

(c) After delivery of a Claim Notice, so long as any right to indemnification exists pursuant to this Article VII, the affected parties each agree to retain all Books and Records related to such Claim Notice. In each instance, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to be kept fully informed by the Indemnifying Party and its legal counsel with respect to any legal proceedings. Any information or documents made available to any party hereunder and designated as confidential by the party providing such information or documents and which is not otherwise generally available to the public and not already within the knowledge of the party to whom the information is provided (unless otherwise covered by the confidentiality provision of any other agreement among the parties hereto, or any of them), and except as may be required by applicable law, shall not be disclosed to any third Person (except for the representatives of the party being provided with information, in which event the party being provided with the information shall request its representatives not to disclose any such information which it otherwise required hereunder to be kept confidential).

Section 7.4 Exclusive Remedy. Except for fraud, willful or intentional misrepresentation or willful or intentional breach of warranty, covenant or agreement, the indemnification provided in this Article VII shall be the sole and exclusive post-Closing remedy available to any party against any other party for any claim arising out of any breach of a representation, warranty or covenant made pursuant to this Agreement.

Section 8.3 Termination Payment. CHC and Seller, jointly and severally, agree that in order to compensate Buyer for the direct and substantial expense and damages suffered by Buyer in the event of termination of this Agreement under certain circumstances, which damages cannot be determined with reasonable certainty, CHC and Seller shall pay to Buyer an amount equal to four million dollars ($4,000,000) (the "Termination Payment") if Seller or CHC terminates this Agreement pursuant to Section 8.1(f) hereof.

Section 8.4 Expenses.

ANNEX B



		Jefferies Broadview 520 Madison Avenue, 10th Floor New York, NY 10022 www.jefferiesbroadview.com
		A division of Jefferies & Company, Inc.

October 13, 2006

The Board of Directors
Computer Horizons Corp.
49 Old Bloomfield Avenue
Mountain Lakes, NJ 07046

Members of the Board:

We understand that Computer Horizons Corp. ("Computer Horizons"), Chimes, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Computer Horizons ("Chimes" or the "Company"), Axium International ("Axium") and Diversity MSP, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Axium (the "Acquiror") propose to enter into an Asset Purchase Agreement, substantially in the form of the draft dated as of October 11, 2006 (the "Agreement"), pursuant to which Computer Horizons will sell to the Acquiror (the "Transaction") substantially all of the assets of Chimes and assign certain liabilities of Chimes, each as more particularly described in the Agreement, for $80.0 million in cash (the "Consideration"). The terms and conditions of the Transaction are more fully set forth in the Agreement.

Jefferies Broadview, a division of Jefferies & Company, Inc. ("Jefferies Broadview"), as part of its investment banking business, is regularly engaged in the valuation of businesses and their securities in connection with mergers and acquisitions, negotiated underwritings, competitive biddings, secondary distributions of listed and unlisted securities, private placements, financial restructurings and other financial services. We have been engaged by Computer Horizons to act as its financial advisor in connection with the Transaction and will receive a fee for our services, a substantial portion of which is payable upon consummation of the Transaction. We also will be reimbursed for expenses incurred. Computer Horizons has agreed to indemnify Jefferies Broadview against liabilities arising out of or in connection with the services rendered and to be rendered by Jefferies Broadview under such engagement. We are currently providing financial advisory services to Computer Horizons and may in the future provide services to Computer Horizons and the Acquiror and/or their affiliates, and we have received, and may receive, fees for the rendering of such services. In the ordinary course of our business, we and our affiliates may trade or hold securities of Computer Horizons for our own account and for the accounts of our customers and, accordingly, may at any time hold long or short positions in those securities.

You have asked for our opinion as investment bankers as to whether the Consideration to be received by the Company pursuant to the Transaction is fair, from a financial point of view, to Computer Horizons.

In conducting our analysis and arriving at the opinion expressed herein, we have, among other things, (i) reviewed a draft of the Agreement dated as of October 11, 2006, which for purposes of this opinion we have assumed to be identical in all material respects to the definitive Agreement; (ii) reviewed certain financial and other information about Computer Horizons that was publicly available; (iii) reviewed information concerning the Company and Computer Horizons furnished to us by the managements of the Company and Computer Horizons, including certain internal financial forecasts and analyses, budgets, reports and other information; (iv) held discussions with senior management of the Company and Computer Horizons concerning the Company's historical and current operations, financial condition and prospects, including recent financial performance; (v) held discussions with senior management of the Company and Computer Horizons concerning the Company's historical and current operations, financial condition and prospects, including recent financial performance, as well as the importance of engaging in the Transaction in light of Computer Horizons' other business plans and strategic objectives; (vi) reviewed the valuations of publicly traded companies in lines of business that we deemed comparable in certain respects to the Company; (vii) reviewed, to the extent publicly available, the financial terms of selected acquisition transactions involving companies in lines of business that we deemed comparable in certain respects to the business of the Company; (viii) assisted in negotiations and discussions related to the Transaction among the Company, Computer Horizons and Axium and their respective financial and legal advisors; and (ix) reviewed the offer submitted by Axium. In addition, in rendering this opinion we have conducted such other quantitative reviews, analyses and inquiries relating to the Company as we considered appropriate and took into account various qualitative factors described to the Board of Directors of Computer Horizons under separate cover regarding the Company's current situation.

With respect to the financial forecasts provided to and examined by us, we note that projecting future results of any company is inherently subject to uncertainty. The Company and Computer Horizons have informed us, however, and we have assumed, that such financial forecasts were reasonably prepared on bases reflecting the best currently available estimates and good faith judgments of the management of the Company and Computer Horizons as to the future performance of the Company. We express no opinion as to any financial forecasts or the assumptions on which they are made. In addition, in rendering this opinion, we have assumed that the Company will perform in accordance with the financial forecasts for the Company for all periods specified therein. Although such financial forecasts did not form the principal basis for our opinion, but rather constituted one of many items that we employed, changes to such financial forecasts could affect the opinion rendered herein.

Accordingly, Jefferies Broadview's analyses must be considered as a whole. Considering any portion of such analyses or the factors considered, without considering all analyses and factors, could create a misleading or incomplete view of the process underlying the conclusions expressed herein. We expressly disclaim any undertaking or obligation to advise any person of any change in any fact or matter affecting our opinion of which we become aware after the date hereof.

B-2

In our review, we did not obtain any independent evaluation or appraisal of the assets or liabilities of, nor did we conduct a comprehensive physical inspection of any of the assets of, the Company, nor have we been furnished with any such evaluations or appraisals or reports of such physical inspections, nor do we assume any responsibility to obtain any such evaluations, appraisals or inspections. Our opinion is based on economic, monetary, regulatory, market and other conditions existing and which can be evaluated as of the date hereof. We have made no independent investigation of any legal or accounting matters affecting the Company, and we have assumed the correctness in all respects material to our analysis of all legal and accounting advice given to Computer Horizons and its Board of Directors, including, without limitation, advice as to the legal, accounting and tax consequences of the terms of, and transactions contemplated by, the Agreement.

In rendering this opinion we have also assumed with your consent that: (i) the transactions contemplated by the Agreement will be consummated on the terms described in the Agreement without any waiver of any material terms or conditions which would affect the amount or timing of receipt of the Consideration; (ii) there is not now, and there will not as a result of the consummation of the Transaction be, any default, or event of default, under any indenture, credit agreement or other material agreement or instrument to which the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates is a party; and (iii) all material assets and liabilities (contingent or otherwise, known or unknown) of the Company were as set forth in the consolidated financial statements provided to us as of the dates of such financial statements.

We note that Computer Horizons publicly announced in September 2005 that its Board of Directors had retained the services of Jefferies Broadview to assist Computer Horizons in exploring strategic alternatives, including the possible sale of all or certain parts of Computer Horizons. We also note that, at Computer Horizons' request, we have contacted more than 50 parties during the past eleven months to solicit their interest in acquiring the Company.

It is understood that our opinion is solely for the use and benefit of the Board of Directors of Computer Horizons in its consideration of the Transaction, and our opinion does not address the relative merits of the Transaction as compared to any alternative transactions that might be available to Computer Horizons, nor does it address the underlying business decision by Computer Horizons to engage in the Transaction or the terms of the Agreement or the documents referred to therein. We express no opinion as to the price at which shares of Computer Horizons' common stock will trade at any future time. Our opinion may not be used or referred to by Computer Horizons, or quoted or disclosed to any person in any matter, without our prior written consent.

Based upon and subject to the foregoing, we are of the opinion as investment bankers that, as of the date hereof, the Consideration to be received by the Company pursuant to the Transaction is fair, from a financial point of view, to Computer Horizons.

	Very truly yours,
	/s/ JEFFERIES BROADVIEW JEFFERIES BROADVIEW A division of Jefferies & Company, Inc.

7.7 Personnel Matters.

(a) Employment of Seller's Employees. Purchaser will offer employment to a substantial number of Business Personnel employed or engaged by Seller or Healthcare Sub. Purchaser may, upon prior notice to Seller, interview and discuss potential employment with all Business Personnel. Purchaser will provide Seller with a list of Business Personnel to whom Purchaser has made an offer of employment that has been accepted to be effective upon the Closing (the "Transferred Personnel") (the foregoing is in addition to, and not in limitation of, any rights of access provided to Purchaser pursuant to Section 7.4). After the Closing, Seller and Healthcare Sub shall be solely responsible for, and shall pay and discharge, all Liabilities (including any severance benefits or dues, whether statutory or otherwise) arising in connection with the end of the independent contractor relationship or employment (as applicable) with Seller or Healthcare Sub of all Transferred Personnel. The foregoing sentence shall not apply to any termination by any Purchaser Entity of the independent contractor relationship or employment (as applicable) of any person except that Seller shall reimburse Canada Sub for any severance obligations Canada Sub is required to be pay to those employees of Canada Sub the employment of whom Purchaser has notified Seller in writing prior to Closing that it intends to terminate.

(b) Employee Benefit Arrangements.

(i) Seller shall cause all group health plans that are US Plans and under which Business Personnel and their beneficiaries are covered on the Closing Date to continue to cover such Business Personnel until 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on the last calendar day of the month in which the Closing Date occurs (the "Benefit Cutoff Time"). As of the Benefit Cutoff Time, all Transferred Personnel shall cease participation in all US Plans, except with respect to benefits accrued as of, or claims incurred on or prior to, such time. Purchaser shall bear all responsibility for providing to Transferred Personnel and their beneficiaries who are otherwise eligible under the terms of Purchaser's group health plans, coverage under a group health plan beginning as of the Benefit Cutoff Time.

(ii) Seller shall continue to maintain a "group health plan" (within the meaning of Section 4980B(g)(2) of the Code) until the date that Seller completes the winding up of its business. Seller shall provide Purchaser with written notice at least 30 days before Seller will cease to maintain a group health plan. Such notice will include such information regarding the individuals covered under Seller's group health plan as Purchaser may reasonably request in order to permit Purchaser to comply with any obligations it might have under COBRA when Seller ceases to maintain the group health plan.

(iii) Purchaser assumes no liability with respect to, and receives no right or interest in, any Controlled Group Benefit Plan.

(iv) With respect to claims by Transferred Personnel and their beneficiaries and dependents for workers' compensation or for the type of benefits described in Section 3(1) of ERISA (whether or not covered by ERISA), (i) Seller shall assume and be responsible for such claims that are incurred on or prior to the Closing Date; and (ii) Purchaser shall assume and be responsible for such claims that are incurred after the Closing Date. For purposes of the foregoing, a medical/dental claim shall be considered incurred when the medical services are rendered or medical supplies are provided, and not when the condition arose; provided that claims relating to a hospital confinement that commences on or prior to the Closing Date but continuing thereafter shall be treated as incurred on or prior to the Closing Date. A disability or workers' compensation claim shall be considered incurred on or prior to the Closing Date if the injury or condition giving rise to the claim occurred on or prior to the Closing Date.

C-39

(v) Seller shall not offer to any Business Personnel healthcare flexible spending account coverage for 2007.

(vi) Seller shall be responsible for satisfying any and all obligations and liabilities under the continuation coverage provisions of the Consolidated Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act of 1985, as amended ("COBRA"), and any applicable state Law to provide continuation coverage to or with respect to all employees or former employees of Seller and Healthcare Sub and their beneficiaries as a result of any "qualifying event" occurring prior to the Closing or as a result of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Seller shall not take any action or cause any action to be taken that would trigger liability to Purchaser with respect to any M&A qualified beneficiary within the meaning of Section 54.4980B-9 of the Treasury Regulations of the Code.

(vii) Purchaser will absorb all accrued but unpaid vacation pay for all Transferred Personnel up to forty hours per Transferred Person. All bonuses due to employees to be paid in the year of closing shall be prorated between Seller and Purchaser as of the Closing Date with the Seller being responsible for the fraction of such bonus equal to the number of days from the first day of the calendar year in which the Closing Date occurs to the Closing Date divided by 365. Any severance pay due to Transferred Personnel who are subsequently terminated by the Purchaser shall be payable by the Purchaser. All bonuses paid or payable to Transferred Personnel with respect to 2006 shall be paid by Seller.

(c) WARN Act Notices. In respect of notices and payments relating to events occurring on or prior to the Closing, Seller shall be responsible for and assume all liability for any and all notices, payments, fines or assessments due to any government authority, pursuant to any Law with respect to the employment, discharge or layoff of Business Personnel by any Seller Entity as of or before the Closing, including but not limited to the WARN Act.

(d) No Third Party Rights. Nothing expressed or implied in this Section 7.7 will confer upon any Business Personnel, any employee or independent contractor of Purchaser, or any legal representative of any such Person, any rights or remedies, including any right to employment or continued employment for any specified period, of any nature or kind whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement. Except as provided in Section 7.7(b)(ii), nothing in this Agreement will limit or restrict in any way the right of the Seller or the Purchaser to modify, amend, terminate or establish employee benefit plans or arrangements in whole or in part at any time after the Closing Date.

(e) Number of Employees. Seller agrees to cause Canada Sub to maintain the employment of Eligible Employees so that the number of Eligible Employees employed by Canada Sub on December 31, 2006 and on each day thereafter up to and including the Closing Date shall be equal to or greater than three hundred fifteen (315).

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Section 7.8(b)(ii) shall not apply with respect to Actions or other disputes between the Parties.

(iii) In the event and for so long as any Party actively is pursuing an affirmative recovery or contesting or defending against any charge, complaint, action, suit, proceeding, hearing, investigation, claim or demand in connection with (i) any transaction contemplated under this Agreement or any Acquisition Agreement or (ii) any fact, situation, circumstance, status, condition, activity, practice, plan, occurrence, event, incident, action, failure to act or transaction on or prior to the Closing Date involving the Business or the Assets, the other Party will cooperate with such Party and its counsel in the pursuit, contest or defense as may be reasonably requested.

The Party requiring assistance shall reimburse the other Party for all reasonable out of pocket costs incurred as a direct result thereof (excluding costs of time expended by employees and representatives), but only if and to the extent that the first Party was informed of and approved of the costs prior to the provision of assistance. Access to records and information relating to Taxes shall be governed by this Section 7.8(c)(ii), and not Section 7.8(b)(ii).

(b) If the Indemnifying Party (i) does not respond to the Third Party Action Notice by 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the last day of the Response Period, (ii) responds to the Third Party Action Notice, but disputes the claim for indemnity hereunder and elects not to assume the defense, or (iii) responds to the Third Party Action Notice and does not dispute the claim for indemnity but elects not to assume the defense, in each case within the period allowed after delivery of the Third Party Action Notice, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to defend against any such Third Party Action by appropriate proceedings or to settle or pay any such Third Party Action for such an amount as the Indemnified Party shall deem appropriate and the Indemnifying Party shall promptly pay all Damages resulting from such Third Party Action in accordance with subparagraph (e) below; provided that in the case of clause (ii), any right of the Indemnified Party to recover from the Indemnifying Party shall depend on the resolution of the dispute as to the right of indemnity in accordance with Section 11.11 hereof.

C-48

(c) If the Indemnifying Party affirmatively disputes the right to indemnity, but nevertheless elects to defend against any such Third Party Action or settle or pay any such Third Party Action, any right of the Indemnified Party to recover from the Indemnifying Party shall depend on the resolution of the dispute as to the right of indemnity in accordance with Section 11.11 hereof.

(d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party that it will defend against or settle any Third Party Action:

(i) such defense or settlement shall be at the sole cost and expense of the Indemnifying Party, except for costs and expenses of the Indemnified Party's counsel, if any, pursuant to items (v) and (vi) below;

(ii) the Indemnifying Party and its counsel shall conduct such defense or settlement at all times in good faith;

(iii) the Indemnifying Party and its counsel shall, at the reasonable request of the Indemnified Party, provide periodic updates to the Indemnified Party in order to keep the Indemnified Party reasonably informed as to its conduct of such defense or settlement, and shall not compromise or settle such Third Party Action without the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) unless such settlement or compromise does not subject the Indemnified Party to any monetary liability, and includes a complete, unconditional release of the Indemnified Party from all Liability with respect to such Third Party Action;

(iv) the Indemnified Party shall reasonably cooperate with the Indemnifying Party, including making available to the Indemnifying Party, all relevant witnesses and pertinent documents and information and appropriate personnel;

(v) the Indemnified Party may elect to employ its own counsel and participate in such defense or settlement at the Indemnified Party's sole cost and expense, but the control of such defense and the settlement shall rest with the Indemnifying Party;

(vi) notwithstanding the Indemnifying Party's election to defend against or settle the Third Party Action, the Indemnified Party may, upon written notice to the Indemnifying Party, elect to employ its own counsel (who shall be reasonably acceptable to the Indemnifying Party) at the Indemnifying Party's expense (except that the Indemnifying Party shall not be obligated to pay the fees of more than one separate counsel for all Indemnified Parties, taken together) if (A) the Indemnifying Party is also a Person against whom the Third Party Action is made and the Indemnified Party has been advised by counsel that (x) representation of both parties by the same counsel would be inappropriate under applicable standards of professional conduct or (y) the Indemnified Party has available to it one or more defenses or counterclaims that are inconsistent with, different from, or in addition to one or more of those that may be available to the Indemnifying Party with respect to such Third Party Action; or (B) the Indemnifying Party shall not in fact have employed counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party for the defense or settlement of such Third Party Action; provided, however, that the assumption of control of the defense or settlement of a Third Party Action by the Indemnified Party pursuant to this item (vi) shall not relieve the Indemnifying Party of its obligation to indemnify and hold the Indemnified Party harmless; and

(vii) in no event shall the Indemnified Party consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement with respect to such Third Party Action without the prior written consent of the Indemnifying Party (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

C-49

(e) Subject to the other provisions of this Section 9.4, the Damages resulting from the settlement or the final, non-appealable adjudication of such Third Party Action, or that portion thereof as to which the defense is unsuccessful, shall promptly be paid by the Indemnifying Party to (x) Purchaser, if any Purchaser Indemnitee is the Indemnified Party, or (y) Seller, if any Seller Indemnitee is the Indemnified Party, if, in either case, the Indemnifying Party:

(i) does not respond to a Third Party Action Notice by 5:00 p.m., New York City time on the last day of the Response Period;

(ii) does not elect to defend against any Third Party Action for which it does not dispute the Indemnified Party's right to indemnity;

(iii) does not elect to defend against any Third Party Action for which it disputes the Indemnified Party's right to indemnity, and such dispute is resolved, in accordance with Section 11.11, in a manner affirming the Indemnified Party's right to indemnity;

(iv) elects to defend against any Third Party Action for which it does not dispute the Indemnified Party's right to indemnity hereunder; or

(v) elects to defend against any Third Party Action for which it does dispute the right to indemnity, to the extent the dispute is resolved, in accordance with Section 11.11, in a manner affirming the Indemnified Party's right to indemnity.

9.5 Claims Period; Survival.

(a) The period during which a claim for indemnification may be asserted under this Agreement by an Indemnified Party (the "Claims Period") shall begin on the Closing Date and shall terminate on the date that is nine (9) months after the date of this Agreement; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing, the Claims Period during which a claim for indemnification may be asserted with respect to Sections 5.2 and 5.8 shall begin on the Closing Date and shall continue until the final liquidation or dissolution of Seller.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, prior to the close of business on the last day of the Claims Period, an Indemnifying Party shall have been properly notified of a claim for indemnity hereunder and such claim shall not have been finally resolved or disposed of at such date, such claim shall continue to survive and shall remain a basis for indemnity hereunder until such claim is finally resolved or disposed of in accordance with the terms hereof.

(d) Seller shall maintain assets reasonably sufficient to satisfy its reasonably foreseeable indemnification obligations hereunder at all times during the Claims Period. Seller shall not finally liquidate or dissolve prior to the end of the Claims Period unless a liquidating trust has assumed in writing all of the obligations of the Seller Parties under this Agreement and Seller has given notice to Purchaser of such event.

9.6 Limits on Indemnification.

The Parties' liability under this Article IX shall be limited as follows:

(a) Threshold. No Purchaser Indemnitee, on the one hand, and no Seller Indemnitee, on the other hand, shall be entitled to assert any claim for indemnification pursuant to this Article IX unless and until the total aggregate cumulative Damages incurred by all Purchaser Indemnitees or all Seller Indemnitees, as applicable, exceed One Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000) (the "Threshold"), in

C-50

which case such Indemnified Party shall be entitled to recover the full amount of such Damages (including the initial Threshold amount).

(b) Maximum Liability. The aggregate monetary liability of Seller, on one hand, and Purchaser, on the other hand, pursuant to this Article IX shall be limited, with respect to each of them, to a maximum amount of Ten Million Dollars ($10,000,000).

9.7 Exclusive Remedy.

Except for fraud, willful or intentional misrepresentation or willful or intentional breach of warranty, covenant or agreement, the indemnification provided in this Article IX shall be the sole and exclusive post-Closing remedy available to any party against any other party for any claim arising out of any breach of a representation, warranty or covenant made in or pursuant to this Agreement, any Transfer Document or the Seller Compliance Certificate or for any Excluded Liability or Assumed Liability.

		A division of Jefferies & Company, Inc.

November 7, 2006

Board of Directors
Computer Horizons Corp.
49 Old Bloomfield Avenue
Mountain Lakes, NJ 07046-1495

Dear Members of the Board:

We understand that Computer Horizons Corp. ("Computer Horizons"), GBS Holdings Private Limited and CHC Healthcare Solutions, LLC (together with Computer Horizons, the "Seller Parties"), TEKsystems, Inc., TEKsystems EF&I Solutions, LLC and Allegis Group Canada Corporation (collectively, "TEKsystems" or the "Acquiror"), and Allegis Group, Inc. ("Allegis" or the "Sponsor") propose to enter into an Asset Purchase Agreement, substantially in the form of the draft dated as of November 2, 2006 (the "Agreement"), pursuant to which the Seller Parties will sell to the Acquiror (the "Transaction") substantially all of the assets of Computer Horizons' Commercial Services Business Unit ("Commercial") and assign certain liabilities of Commercial, each as more particularly described in the Agreement, for $57.0 million in cash (the "Consideration"). The terms and conditions of the Transaction are more fully set forth in the Agreement.

Jefferies Broadview, a division of Jefferies & Company, Inc. ("Jefferies Broadview"), as part of its investment banking business, is regularly engaged in the valuation of businesses and their securities in connection with mergers and acquisitions, negotiated underwritings, competitive biddings, secondary distributions of listed and unlisted securities, private placements, financial restructurings and other financial services. We have been engaged by Computer Horizons to act as its financial advisor in connection with the Transaction and will receive a fee for our services, a substantial portion of which is payable upon consummation of the Transaction. We will also be reimbursed for expenses incurred. Computer Horizons has agreed to indemnify Jefferies Broadview against liabilities arising out of or in connection with the services rendered and to be rendered by Jefferies Broadview under such engagement. We are currently providing financial advisory services to Computer Horizons and may in the future provide services to Computer Horizons and the Acquiror and/or their affiliates, and we have received, and may receive, fees for the rendering of such services. In the ordinary course of our business, we and our affiliates may trade or hold securities of Computer Horizons for our own account and for the accounts of our customers and, accordingly, may at any time hold long or short positions in those securities.

You have asked for our opinion as investment bankers as to whether the Consideration to be received by Computer Horizons pursuant to the Transaction is fair, from a financial point of view, to Computer Horizons.

In conducting our analysis and arriving at the opinion expressed herein, we have, among other things, (i) reviewed a draft of the Agreement dated as of November 2, 2006, which for purposes of this opinion we have assumed to be identical in all material respects to the definitive Agreement; (ii) reviewed certain financial and other information about Computer Horizons that was publicly available; (iii) reviewed information concerning Commercial and Computer Horizons furnished to us by the management of Computer Horizons, including certain internal financial forecasts and analyses, budgets, reports and other information; (iv) held discussions with senior management of Computer Horizons concerning Commercial's historical and current operations, financial condition and prospects, including recent financial performance; (v) held discussions with senior management of Computer Horizons regarding the importance of engaging in the Transaction in light of Computer Horizons' other business plans and strategic objectives; (vi) reviewed the valuations of publicly traded companies in lines of business that we deemed comparable in certain respects to Commercial; (vii) reviewed, to the extent publicly available, the financial terms of selected acquisition transactions involving companies in lines of business that we deemed comparable in certain respects to the business of Commercial; (viii) assisted in negotiations and discussions related to the Transaction among Computer Horizons, the Acquiror and the Sponsor and their respective financial and legal advisors; and (ix) evaluated and assessed the offer submitted by the Acquiror. In addition, in rendering this opinion we have conducted such other quantitative reviews, analyses and inquiries relating to Commercial as we considered appropriate and took into account various qualitative factors described to the Board of Directors of Computer Horizons under separate cover regarding Commercial's current situation.

In our review and analysis and in rendering this opinion, we have assumed and relied upon, but have not assumed any responsibility to independently investigate or verify, the accuracy, completeness and fair presentation of all financial and other information that was provided to us by Computer Horizons, or that was publicly available (including, without limitation, the information described above), or that was otherwise reviewed by us. Specifically, we have also assumed, with your permission, that the allocation of Computer Horizons' corporate expenses to Commercial provided to us by management accurately reflects the portion of such expenses directly applicable to Commercial, and that such allocated expenses represent a true cost of doing business for Commercial. This opinion is expressly conditioned upon such information (whether written or oral) being complete, accurate and fair in all respects material to our analysis.

With respect to the financial forecasts provided to and examined by us, we note that projecting future results of any company is inherently subject to uncertainty. Computer Horizons has informed us, however, and we have assumed, that such financial forecasts were reasonably prepared on bases reflecting the best currently available estimates and good faith judgments of the management of Computer Horizons as to the future performance of Commercial. We express no opinion as to any financial forecasts or the assumptions on which they are made. In addition, in rendering this opinion, we have assumed that Commercial will perform in accordance with the financial forecasts for Commercial for all periods specified therein. Although such financial forecasts did not form the principal basis for our opinion, but rather constituted one of many items that we employed, changes to such financial forecasts could affect the opinion rendered herein.

D-2

is based on economic, monetary, regulatory, market and other conditions existing and which can be evaluated as of the date hereof. We have made no independent investigation of any legal or accounting matters affecting Commercial, and we have assumed the correctness in all respects material to our analysis of all legal and accounting advice given to Computer Horizons and its Board of Directors, including, without limitation, advice as to the legal, accounting and tax consequences of the terms of, and transactions contemplated by, the Agreement.

In rendering this opinion we have also assumed with your consent that: (i) the transactions contemplated by the Agreement will be consummated on the terms described in the Agreement without any waiver of any material terms or conditions which would affect the amount or timing of receipt of the Consideration; (ii) there is not now, and there will not as a result of the consummation of the Transaction be, any default, or event of default, under any indenture, credit agreement or other material agreement or instrument to which Computer Horizons or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates is a party; and (iii) all material assets and liabilities (contingent or otherwise, known or unknown) of Commercial were as set forth in the consolidated financial statements provided to us as of the dates of such financial statements.

We note that Computer Horizons publicly announced in September 2005 that its Board of Directors had retained the services of Jefferies Broadview to assist Computer Horizons in exploring strategic alternatives, including the possible sale of all or certain parts of Computer Horizons. We also note that, at Computer Horizons' request, we have contacted approximately 50 parties during the past eleven months to solicit their interest in acquiring Commercial.

Based upon and subject to the foregoing, we are of the opinion as investment bankers that, as of the date hereof, the Consideration to be received by Computer Horizons pursuant to the Transaction is fair, from a financial point of view, to Computer Horizons.

Sincerely,

/s/ JEFFERIES BROADVIEW

Jefferies Broadview,
a division of Jefferies & Company, Inc.

ANNEX E

PLAN OF COMPLETE LIQUIDATION AND DISSOLUTION

OF

COMPUTER HORIZONS CORP.

This Plan of Complete Liquidation and Dissolution (the "Plan") provides for the complete liquidation and dissolution of Computer Horizons Corp., a New York corporation (the "Corporation"), in accordance with the New York Business Corporation Law (the "BCL") and Section 331 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code").

1. The Board of Directors of the Corporation (the "Board") has heretofore adopted a plan to liquidate the Corporation and has entered into asset purchase agreements to sell certain of its affiliates. The Board has adopted this Plan and called a meeting (the "Meeting") of the Corporation's shareholders to take action on the Plan. If shareholders holding a majority of the Corporation's outstanding common stock, par value $.10 per share (the "Common Stock"), vote for the adoption of this Plan, the Plan shall constitute the adopted Plan of the Corporation as of the date of the Meeting, or such later date on which shareholders approve the Plan if the Meeting is adjourned to a later date (the "Adoption Date").

2. The Corporation shall submit a certificate of dissolution (the "Certificate of Dissolution") to the Department of State of the State of New York (the "Department of State") in accordance with the BCL on or after the Adoption Date. Promptly after the Department of State files the Certificate of Dissolution, the Corporation shall commence the liquidation process by providing notice to creditors as required under Section 1007 of the BCL. Thereafter, the Corporation shall cease to be a going concern, and shall continue its activities merely for the purpose of preserving the value of the Corporation's assets, winding up its affairs, paying its debts and distributing the balance of its assets to its shareholders. In addition, on or after Adoption Date, at the discretion of the Board, the Corporation will close its stock transfer books and discontinue recording transfers of Common Stock, and thereafter certificates representing Common Stock will not be assignable or transferable on the books of the Corporation except by will, intestate succession, or operation of law.

3. Following the Adoption Date, the Corporation shall sell, exchange, transfer, lease, license or otherwise dispose of all of the Corporation's property and assets, to the extent and at such time(s), for such consideration (which may consist in whole or in part of forgiveness of obligations of the Corporation, money or other property), and upon such other terms and conditions, as the Board deems expedient and in the best interests of the Corporation and its shareholders, without any further vote or action by the Corporation's shareholders. Following adoption of the Plan by the Corporation's shareholders, the Board shall be authorized to take appropriate actions with a view towards consummating as soon as possible one or more of the transactions referred to in this paragraph 3, in an effort to attain the highest value for the Corporation's properties and assets and maximize the value for the Corporation's shareholders. The Corporation's properties and assets may be sold, exchanged, transferred, leased, licensed or otherwise disposed of in bulk to one person or entity or to a small number of persons or entities or on a piecemeal basis to numerous persons or entities. The Corporation will not be required to obtain appraisals or other third party opinions as to the value of its properties and assets in connection with this liquidation process. As part of the liquidation of its property and assets, the Corporation shall collect, or make provision for the collection of, all accounts receivable, debts and claims owing to the Corporation to the extent feasible and cost efficient.

4. Approval and adoption of the Plan by the Corporation's shareholders shall constitute approval by the shareholders of any sale, exchange, transfer, lease, license or other disposition in liquidation of the property and assets of the Corporation, whether such sale, exchange, transfer, lease, license or other disposition occurs in one transaction or a series of transactions, and shall also constitute ratification of (a) all contracts and any related instruments for the sale, exchange, transfer, lease, license or other disposition of any of the Corporation's property or assets which are conditioned on

approval and adoption of the Plan by the Corporation's shareholders and (b) all actions previously or thereafter taken by any director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation, including without limitation the incurrence and payment by the Corporation of related fees, costs and expenses, to facilitate or cause or permit the Corporation to enter into any such contract or other instrument.

5. Following the Adoption Date, the Corporation shall also:

(a) pay, or make reasonable provision to pay, all claims and obligations, including all contingent, conditional, or unmatured contractual claims, and all expenses relating to the sale of the Corporation's assets and the liquidation and dissolution of the Corporation (collectively, "Claims") known to the Corporation;

(b) make such provision as will be reasonably likely to be sufficient to provide compensation for any claim against the Corporation which is the subject of a pending action, suit or proceeding to which the Corporation is a party; and

(c) make such provision as will be reasonably likely to be sufficient to provide compensation for claims that have not been made known to the Corporation or that have not arisen but that, based on facts known to the Corporation, are likely to arise or to become known to the Corporation.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Corporation will not be required to pay or make adequate provisions for any claims or other claims that are assumed by a buyer or buyers or other third party in connection with a sale, exchange, transfer, lease, license or other disposition of property or assets of the Corporation as contemplated by paragraph 3 above, if and to the extent that the Board or the trustee(s) of a Trust referred to in paragraph 10 below determine that such buyer, buyers or other third party is reasonably capable of satisfying such claims.

6. Claims shall be paid in full and any provisions required by subparagraphs 5(b) and 5(c) hereof shall be provided for in full if there are sufficient assets. If there are insufficient assets for the payment of Claims and the provisions referred to above, Claims and provisions shall be paid or provided for according to their priority and, among claims of equal priority, ratably to the extent of assets legally available therefore.

7. Subject to paragraph 8 and paragraph 10 below, all assets of the Corporation remaining after payment of Claims and the making of the provisions required by subparagraphs 5(b) and 5(c) will be distributed pro rata to the Corporation's shareholders in complete liquidation of the Corporation. Such distribution may occur in a single distribution or in a series of distributions and shall be in cash or assets, in such amounts, and at such time or times, as the Board or the Trustees (as defined in paragraph 10 below), in their absolute discretion, may determine.

8. If and to the extent deemed necessary, appropriate or desirable by the Board, in its absolute discretion, the Corporation may establish and set aside a reasonable amount of cash and/or property (the "Contingency Reserve") to satisfy actual, contingent or anticipated claims against the Corporation, including, without limitation, tax obligations, and all expenses of the sale of the Corporation's property and assets, of the collection and defense of the Corporation's property and assets, and the liquidation and dissolution provided for in the Plan.

9. If any distribution to a shareholder cannot be made, whether because the shareholder cannot be located, has not surrendered its certificates evidencing Common Stock as may be required hereunder or for any other reason, the distribution to which such shareholder is entitled (unless transferred to a Trust established pursuant to paragraph 10 hereof) shall be transferred, at such time as the final liquidating distribution is made by the Corporation, to the official of such state or other jurisdiction authorized by applicable law to receive the proceeds of such distribution. The proceeds of such distribution shall thereafter be held solely for the benefit of and for ultimate distribution to such shareholder as the sole equitable owner thereof and shall be treated as abandoned property and

E-2

escheat to the applicable state or other jurisdiction in accordance with applicable law. In no event shall the proceeds of any such distribution revert to or become the property of the Corporation.

10. If deemed necessary, appropriate or desirable by the Board, in its absolute discretion, the Corporation may at any time transfer to one or more liquidating trusts (each a "Trust"), for the benefit of the Corporation's shareholders, any of the then remaining property and assets of the Corporation, including, if determined by the Board, all amounts in any Contingency Reserve. The Corporation and any officer thereof, as authorized by the Board, may appoint one or more corporations, partnerships or other persons or entities, or any combination thereof, including, without limitation, any one or more officers, directors, employees, agents or representatives of the Corporation, to act as the initial trustee or trustees of a Trust ("Trustees"). Each Trust shall succeed to all right, title and interest of the Corporation of any kind and character with respect to the property and assets transferred to it and, to the extent of the property and assets so transferred, shall assume all of the liabilities and obligations of the Corporation, including, without limitation, any unsatisfied claims and unascertained or contingent liabilities. For the purposes of the Plan, any conveyance of property and assets to a Trust shall be deemed to be a distribution of property and assets by the Corporation to the shareholders, subject to such liabilities, followed by a contribution of such property and assets, subject to such liabilities, to such Trust in exchange for a pro rata interest therein. The Corporation, subject to this paragraph 10 and as authorized by the Board, in its absolute discretion, may enter into a liquidating trust agreement with the Trustees of each Trust, on such terms and conditions as the Board, in its absolute discretion, may deem necessary, appropriate or desirable. Approval and adoption of the Plan by the Corporation's shareholders shall constitute the approval by the shareholders of such appointment, any such liquidating trust agreement and the transfer of property and assets by the Corporation to a Trust pursuant thereto.

11. Any distributions to the Corporation's shareholders pursuant to paragraph 7 of the Plan shall be in complete redemption and cancellation of all of the outstanding Common Stock of the Corporation. No distribution of property or assets representing earned but unreported income will be made by the Corporation to its shareholders in the liquidation. No part of the consideration to be received by any shareholder of the Corporation pursuant to paragraph 7 will be received by a shareholder of the Corporation as a creditor, employee, or in any other capacity other than that of a shareholder. Moreover, no property or assets will be retained or used to satisfy claims of any shareholders with respect to their stock. As a condition to such distributions to the Corporation's shareholders, the Board or the Trustees, in their absolute discretion, may (but shall not be required to) require shareholders to surrender their certificates evidencing Common Stock to the Corporation, the Trustees, or an agent for cancellation. Under such circumstances, if a shareholder's certificate for shares of Common Stock has been lost, stolen or destroyed, such shareholder may be required, as a condition to the disbursement of any distribution to such shareholder under the Plan, to furnish to the Corporation, the Trustees or an agent satisfactory evidence of the loss, theft or destruction thereof, together with a surety bond or other security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to the Corporation, such Trustees or such agent.

12. The Corporation shall continue to indemnify its officers, directors, employees and agents in accordance with its certificate of incorporation, bylaws and any contractual arrangements as therein or elsewhere provided, and such indemnification shall apply to acts or omissions of such persons in connection with the adoption and implementation of the Plan and the winding up of the affairs of the Corporation. The Corporation's obligation to indemnify such persons may be satisfied out of any cash of the Corporation on hand from time to time, any Contingency Reserve or out of property or assets transferred to a Trust, if any. The Board and the Trustees are authorized to obtain and maintain such directors and officers or other fiduciary liability insurance coverage as they determine to be appropriate in connection with the Plan and its implementation.

E-3

13. In connection with and for the purposes of implementing the Plan, the Corporation may, in the absolute discretion of the Board, pay any brokerage, agency, professional and other fees and expenses of persons rendering services to the Corporation in connection with the collection, sale, exchange, transfer, lease, license or other disposition of the Corporation's property and assets and otherwise in connection with the implementation of the Plan.

14. In connection with and for the purpose of implementing and assuring completion of the Plan, the Corporation may, in the absolute discretion of the Board, pay the Corporation's officers, directors, employees, agents and representatives, compensation or additional compensation above their regular compensation, in money or other property, as severance, bonus, acceleration of vesting of stock or stock options or in recognition of any extraordinary efforts they, or any of them, will be required to undertake, or actually undertake, in connection with carrying out the Plan. Approval and adoption of the Plan by the Corporation's shareholders shall constitute approval by the Corporation's shareholders of the payment of any such compensation.

15. Notwithstanding any approval and adoption of the Plan and the transactions contemplated hereby by the shareholders of the Corporation, the Board may modify, amend, or abandon the Plan and the transactions contemplated hereby without further action by the shareholders to the extent permitted under the BCL; provided, however, that the Corporation will not amend or modify the Plan under circumstances that would require additional shareholder approval under the BCL or the Federal securities laws without complying with the BCL or the Federal securities laws, as applicable.

16. The Board and the officers of the Corporation are authorized to approve changes to the terms of any of the transactions referred to herein, to interpret any of the provisions of the Plan, and to make, execute and deliver such other agreements, conveyances, assignments, transfers, certificates and other documents and take such other action as the Board and/or the officers of the Corporation deem necessary or desirable in order to carry out the provisions of the Plan and effect the complete liquidation and dissolution of the Corporation in accordance with the Code, the BCL and other applicable law, rules or regulations including, without limitation, any instruments of dissolution or other documents, and any withdrawal of any qualification to conduct business in any state in which the Corporation is so qualified, as well as the preparation and filing of any tax returns.

ANNEX F

Copy of Sections 623 and 910 of the New York Business Corporation Law
Explaining Appraisal Rights

Section 623. Procedure to enforce shareholder's right to receive payment for shares

(a) A shareholder intending to enforce his right under a section of this chapter to receive payment for his shares if the proposed corporate action referred to therein is taken shall file with the corporation, before the meeting of shareholders at which the action is submitted to a vote, or at such meeting but before the vote, written objection to the action. The objection shall include a notice of his election to dissent, his name and residence address, the number and classes of shares as to which he dissents and a demand for payment of the fair value of his shares if the action is taken. Such objection is not required from any shareholder to whom the corporation did not give notice of such meeting in accordance with this chapter or where the proposed action is authorized by written consent of shareholders without a meeting.

(b) Within ten days after the shareholders' authorization date, which term as used in this section means the date on which the shareholders' vote authorizing such action was taken, or the date on which such consent without a meeting was obtained from the requisite shareholders, the corporation shall give written notice of such authorization or consent by registered mail to each shareholder who filed written objection or from whom written objection was not required, excepting any shareholder who voted for or consented in writing to the proposed action and who thereby is deemed to have elected not to enforce his right to receive payment for his shares.

(c) Within twenty days after the giving of notice to him, any shareholder from whom written objection was not required and who elects to dissent shall file with the corporation a written notice of such election, stating his name and residence address, the number and classes of shares as to which he dissents and a demand for payment of the fair value of his shares. Any shareholder who elects to dissent from a merger under section 905 (Merger of subsidiary corporation) or paragraph (c) of section 907 (Merger or consolidation of domestic and foreign corporations) or from a share exchange under paragraph (g) of section 913 (share exchanges) shall file a written notice of such election to dissent within twenty days after the giving to him of a copy of the plan of merger or exchange or an outline of the material features thereof under section 905 or 913.

(d) A shareholder may not dissent as to less than all of the shares, as to which he has a right to dissent, held by him of record, that he owns beneficially. A nominee or fiduciary may not dissent on behalf of any beneficial owner as to less than all of the shares of such owner, as to which such nominee or fiduciary has a right to dissent, held of record by such nominee or fiduciary.

(e) Upon consummation of the corporate action, the shareholder shall cease to have any of the rights of a shareholder except the right to be paid the fair value of his shares and any other rights under this section. A notice of election may be withdrawn by the shareholder at any time prior to his acceptance in writing of an offer made by the corporation, as provided in paragraph (g), but in no case later than sixty days from the date of consummation of the corporate action except that if the corporation fails to make a timely offer, as provided in paragraph (g), the time for withdrawing a notice of election shall be extended until sixty days from the date an offer is made. Upon expiration of such time, withdrawal of a notice of election shall require the written consent of the corporation. In order to be effective, withdrawal of a notice of election must be accompanied by the return to the corporation of any advance payment made to the shareholder as provided in paragraph (g). If a notice of election is withdrawn, or the corporate action is rescinded, or a court shall determine that the shareholder is not entitled to receive payment for his

shares, or the shareholder shall otherwise lose his dissenters' rights, he shall not have the right to receive payment for his shares and he shall be reinstated to all his rights as a shareholder as of the consummation of the corporate action, including any intervening preemptive rights and the right to payment of any intervening dividend or other distribution or, if any such rights have expired or any such dividend or distribution other than in cash has been completed, in lieu thereof, at the election of the corporation, the fair value thereof in cash as determined by the board as of the time of such expiration or completion, but without prejudice otherwise to any corporate proceedings that may have been taken in the interim.

(f) At the time of filing the notice of election to dissent or within one month thereafter the shareholder of shares represented by certificates shall submit the certificates representing his shares to the corporation, or to its transfer agent, which shall forthwith note conspicuously thereon that a notice of election has been filed and shall return the certificates to the shareholder or other person who submitted them on his behalf. Any shareholder of shares represented by certificates who fails to submit his certificates for such notation as herein specified shall, at the option of the corporation exercised by written notice to him within forty-five days from the date of filing of such notice of election to dissent, lose his dissenter's rights unless a court, for good cause shown, shall otherwise direct. Upon transfer of a certificate bearing such notation, each new certificate issued therefor shall bear a similar notation together with the name of the original dissenting holder of the shares and a transferee shall acquire no rights in the corporation except those which the original dissenting shareholder had at the time of transfer.

(g) Within fifteen days after the expiration of the period within which shareholders may file their notices of election to dissent, or within fifteen days after the proposed corporate action is consummated, whichever is later (but in no case later than ninety days from the shareholders' authorization date), the corporation or, in the case of a merger or consolidation, the surviving or new corporation, shall make a written offer by registered mail to each shareholder who has filed such notice of election to pay for his shares at a specified price which the corporation considers to be their fair value. Such offer shall be accompanied by a statement setting forth the aggregate number of shares with respect to which notices of election to dissent have been received and the aggregate number of holders of such shares. If the corporate action has been consummated, such offer shall also be accompanied by (1) advance payment to each such shareholder who has submitted the certificates representing his shares to the corporation, as provided in paragraph (f), of an amount equal to eighty percent of the amount of such offer, or (2) as to each shareholder who has not yet submitted his certificates a statement that advance payment to him of an amount equal to eighty percent of the amount of such offer will be made by the corporation promptly upon submission of his certificates. If the corporate action has not been consummated at the time of the making of the offer, such advance payment or statement as to advance payment shall be sent to each shareholder entitled thereto forthwith upon consummation of the corporate action.

Every advance payment or statement as to advance payment shall include advice to the shareholder to the effect that acceptance of such payment does not constitute a waiver of any dissenters' rights. If the corporate action has not been consummated upon the expiration of the ninety-day period after the shareholders' authorization date, the offer may be conditioned upon the consummation of such action. Such offer shall be made at the same price per share to all dissenting shareholders of the same class, or if divided into series, of the same series and shall be accompanied by a balance sheet of the corporation whose shares the dissenting shareholder holds as of the latest available date, which shall not be earlier than twelve months before the making of such offer, and a profit and loss statement or statements for not less than a twelve month period ended on the date of such balance sheet or, if the corporation was not in existence throughout such twelve month period, for the portion thereof during which it was in existence. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the corporation shall not be required to furnish a balance sheet or profit and loss statement or statements to any shareholder to whom such balance sheet or profit

F-2

and loss statement or statements were previously furnished, nor if in connection with obtaining the shareholders' authorization for or consent to the proposed corporate action the shareholders were furnished with a proxy or information statement, which included financial statements, pursuant to Regulation 14A or Regulation 14C of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. If within thirty days after the making of such offer, the corporation making the offer and any shareholder agree upon the price to be paid for his shares, payment therefor shall be made within sixty days after the making of such offer or the consummation of the proposed corporate action, whichever is later, upon the surrender of the certificates for any such shares represented by certificates.

(h) The following procedure shall apply if the corporation fails to make such offer within such period of fifteen days, or if it makes the offer and any dissenting shareholder or shareholders fail to agree with it within the period of thirty days thereafter upon the price to be paid for their shares:

(1) The corporation shall, within twenty days after the expiration of whichever is applicable of the two periods last mentioned, institute a special proceeding in the supreme court in the judicial district in which the office of the corporation is located to determine the rights of dissenting shareholders and to fix the fair value of their shares. If, in the case of merger or consolidation, the surviving or new corporation is a foreign corporation without an office in this state, such proceeding shall be brought in the county where the office of the domestic corporation, whose shares are to be valued, was located.

(2) If the corporation fails to institute such proceeding within such period of twenty days, any dissenting shareholder may institute such proceeding for the same purpose not later than thirty days after the expiration of such twenty-day period. If such proceeding is not instituted within such thirty-day period, all dissenter's rights shall be lost unless the supreme court, for good cause shown, shall otherwise direct.

(3) All dissenting shareholders, excepting those who, as provided in paragraph (g), have agreed with the corporation upon the price to be paid for their shares, shall be made parties to such proceeding, which shall have the effect of an action quasi in rem against their shares. The corporation shall serve a copy of the petition in such proceeding upon each dissenting shareholder who is a resident of this state in the manner provided by law for the service of a summons, and upon each nonresident dissenting shareholder either by registered mail and publication, or in such other manner as is permitted by law. The jurisdiction of the court shall be plenary and exclusive.

(4) The court shall determine whether each dissenting shareholder, as to whom the corporation requests the court to make such determination, is entitled to receive payment for his shares. If the corporation does not request any such determination or if the court finds that any dissenting shareholder is so entitled, it shall proceed to fix the value of the shares, which, for the purposes of this section, shall be the fair value as of the close of business on the day prior to the shareholders' authorization date. In fixing the fair value of the shares, the court shall consider the nature of the transaction giving rise to the shareholder's right to receive payment for shares and its effects on the corporation and its shareholders, the concepts and methods then customary in the relevant securities and financial markets for determining fair value of shares of a corporation engaging in a similar transaction under comparable circumstances and all other relevant factors. The court shall determine the fair value of the shares without a jury and without referral to an appraiser or referee. Upon application by the corporation or by any shareholder who is a party to the proceeding, the court may, in its discretion, permit pretrial disclosure, including, but not limited to, disclosure of any expert's reports relating to the fair value of the shares whether or not

F-3

intended for use at the trial in the proceeding and notwithstanding subdivision (d) of section 3101 of the civil practice law and rules.

(5) The final order in the proceeding shall be entered against the corporation in favor of each dissenting shareholder who is a party to the proceeding and is entitled thereto for the value of his shares so determined.

(6) The final order shall include an allowance for interest at such rate as the court finds to be equitable, from the date the corporate action was consummated to the date of payment. In determining the rate of interest, the court shall consider all relevant factors, including the rate of interest which the corporation would have had to pay to borrow money during the pendency of the proceeding. If the court finds that the refusal of any shareholder to accept the corporate offer of payment for his shares was arbitrary, vexatious or otherwise not in good faith, no interest shall be allowed to him.

(7) Each party to such proceeding shall bear its own costs and expenses, including the fees and expenses of its counsel and of any experts employed by it. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the court may, in its discretion, apportion and assess all or any part of the costs, expenses and fees incurred by the corporation against any or all of the dissenting shareholders who are parties to the proceeding, including any who have withdrawn their notices of election as provided in paragraph (e), if the court finds that their refusal to accept the corporate offer was arbitrary, vexatious or otherwise not in good faith. The court may, in its discretion, apportion and assess all or any part of the costs, expenses and fees incurred by any or all of the dissenting shareholders who are parties to the proceeding against the corporation if the court finds any of the following:

(A) that the fair value of the shares as determined materially exceeds the amount which the corporation offered to pay;

(B) that no offer or required advance payment was made by the corporation;

(D) that the action of the corporation in complying with its obligations as provided in this section was arbitrary, vexatious or otherwise not in good faith.

In making any determination as provided in clause (A), the court may consider the dollar amount or the percentage, or both, by which the fair value of the shares as determined exceeds the corporate offer.

(8) Within sixty days after final determination of the proceeding, the corporation shall pay to each dissenting shareholder the amount found to be due him, upon surrender of the certificates for any such shares represented by certificates.

(i) Shares acquired by the corporation upon the payment of the agreed value therefor or of the amount due under the final order, as provided in this section, shall become treasury shares or be cancelled as provided in section 515 (Reacquired shares), except that, in the case of a merger or consolidation, they may be held and disposed of as the plan of merger or consolidation may otherwise provide.

F-4

(j) No payment shall be made to a dissenting shareholder under this section at a time when the corporation is insolvent or when such payment would make it insolvent. In such event, the dissenting shareholder shall, at his option:

(1) Withdraw his notice of election, which shall in such event be deemed withdrawn with the written consent of the corporation; or

(2) Retain his status as a claimant against the corporation and, if it is liquidated, be subordinated to the rights of creditors of the corporation, but have rights superior to the non-dissenting shareholders, and if it is not liquidated, retain his right to be paid for his shares, which right the corporation shall be obliged to satisfy when the restrictions of this paragraph do not apply.

(3) The dissenting shareholder shall exercise such option under subparagraph (1) or (2) by written notice filed with the corporation within thirty days after the corporation has given him written notice that payment for his shares cannot be made because of the restrictions of this paragraph. If the dissenting shareholder fails to exercise such option as provided, the corporation shall exercise the option by written notice given to him within twenty days after the expiration of such period of thirty days.

(k) The enforcement by a shareholder of his right to receive payment for his shares in the manner provided herein shall exclude the enforcement by such shareholder of any other right to which he might otherwise be entitled by virtue of share ownership, except as provided in paragraph (e), and except that this section shall not exclude the right of such shareholder to bring or maintain an appropriate action to obtain relief on the ground that such corporate action will be or is unlawful or fraudulent as to him.

(l) Except as otherwise expressly provided in this section, any notice to be given by a corporation to a shareholder under this section shall be given in the manner provided in section 605 (Notice of meetings of shareholders).

(m) This section shall not apply to foreign corporations except as provided in subparagraph (e) (2) of section 907 (Merger or consolidation of domestic and foreign corporations).

Section 910. Right of shareholder to receive payment for shares upon merger or consolidation, or sale, lease, exchange or other disposition of assets, or share exchange

(a) A shareholder of a domestic corporation shall, subject to and by complying with section 623 (Procedure to enforce shareholder's right to receive payment for shares), have the right to receive payment of the fair value of his shares and the other rights and benefits provided by such section, in the following cases:

(1) Any shareholder entitled to vote who does not assent to the taking of an action specified in clauses (A), (B) and (C).

(A) Any plan of merger or consolidation to which the corporation is a party; except that the right to receive payment of the fair value of his shares shall not be available:

(i) To a shareholder of the parent corporation in a merger authorized by section 905 (merger of parent and subsidiary corporations), or paragraph (c) of section 907 (merger or consolidation of domestic and foreign corporations); or

F-5

(ii) To a shareholder of the surviving corporation in a merger authorized by this article, other than a merger specified in subclause (i), unless such merger effects one or more of the changes specified in subparagraph (b) (6) of section 806 (Provisions as to certain proceedings) in the rights of the shares held by such shareholder; or

(iii) Notwithstanding subclause (ii) of this clause, to a shareholder for the shares of any class or series of stock, which shares or depository receipts in respect thereof, at the record date fixed to determine the shareholders entitled to receive notice of the meeting of shareholders to vote upon the plan of merger or consolidation, were listed on a national securities exchange or designated as a national market system security on an interdealer quotation system by the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.

(B) Any sale, lease, exchange or other disposition of all or substantially all of the assets of a corporation which requires shareholder approval under section 909 (Sale, lease, exchange or other disposition of assets) other than a transaction wholly for cash where the shareholders' approval thereof is conditioned upon the dissolution of the corporation and the distribution of substantially all of its net assets to the shareholders in accordance with their respective interests within one year after the date of such transaction.

(C) Any share exchange authorized by section 913 in which the corporation is participating as a subject corporation; except that the right to receive payment of the fair value of his shares shall not be available to a shareholder whose shares have not been acquired in the exchange or to a shareholder for the shares of any class or series of stock, which shares or depository receipt in respect thereof, at the record date fixed to determine the shareholders entitled to receive notice of the meeting of shareholders to vote upon the plan of exchange, were listed on a national securities exchange or designated as a national market system security on an interdealer quotation system by the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc.

(2) Any shareholder of the subsidiary corporation in a merger authorized by section 905 or paragraph (c) of section 907, or in a share exchange authorized by paragraph (g) of section 913, who files with the corporation a written notice of election to dissent as provided in paragraph (c) of section 623.

(3) Any shareholder, not entitled to vote with respect to a plan of merger or consolidation to which the corporation is a party, whose shares will be cancelled or exchanged in the merger or consolidation for cash or other consideration other than shares of the surviving or consolidated corporation or another corporation.
