COMPENSATION DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

The following compensation discussion and analysis (“CD&A”) should be read in conjunction with the “Summary Compensation Table” and related tables that are presented elsewhere in this report.

Introduction and Summary

The purpose of this CD&A is to provide information about each material element of compensation that we pay or award to, or that is earned by: (1) each person who served as our principal executive officer during fiscal 2007; (2) each person who served as our principal financial officer during fiscal 2007; and (3) our three most highly compensated executive officers as of June 24, 2007 with compensation during fiscal 2007 of $100,000 or more (the “Named Executive Officers”), and to explain the numerical and related information contained in the tables located below.  For our 2007 fiscal year, our Named Executive Officers included:

·  
Charles R. Morrison, our CFO, Interim President and CEO;
·  
Ward T. Olgreen, our Senior Vice President of World Wide Franchising;
·  
Danny K. Meisenheimer, our Vice President of Brand Management; and
·  
Darrell G. Smith, our Vice President of Development.

Timothy P. Taft, our former President and CEO, Jack A. Odachowski, our former Vice President of Supply Chain, Kevin A. Kleiner, our former Controller and CFO, and Clinton J. Coleman, our former Interim CFO, were also Named Executive Officers during our 2007 fiscal year because each served in their respective positions during our 2007 fiscal year or, with respect to Mr. Odachowski, would have qualified as a Named Executive Officer but for the fact that he was not serving as an executive officer at the end of our 2007 fiscal year.

The Compensation Committee

The three members of the Compensation Committee are Steven J. Pully (Chairman), Ramon D. Phillips and Steven M. Johnson.  The Company’s Board has determined that each of the members of the Compensation Committee is “independent” under NASDAQ Marketplace Rules.

Role of Executives in Determining Executive Compensation

The Compensation Committee acts on behalf of the Board to establish the Company’s general compensation policies for its executive officers. The Board determines whether the Compensation Committee will make determinations as a committee or will make recommendations to the Board.  In fiscal 2007, the Compensation Committee determined the compensation of the Company’s executive officers and delegated compensation determinations for other employees to Timothy P. Taft, the Company’s former President and CEO.  It is the Company’s practice to have the CEO make recommendations to the Compensation Committee with regard to compensation for its non-executive employees.

Significant Compensation Events in Fiscal 2007

On  January 31, 2007, the Company entered into an Employment Letter with Charles R. Morrison, pursuant to which Mr. Morrison agreed to serve as the Company’s CFO.  On August 15, 2007, following the Company’s former President and Chief Executive Officer  Timothy P. Taft’s resignation, Mr. Morrison was appointed Interim President and CEO.  Please see the section entitled “Employment Agreements” for a more detailed description of Mr. Morrison’s Employment Letter.

Compensation Philosophy and Objectives

The Company has developed a compensation program for executives and employees designed to meet the following goals:

·  
align the interest of executives and employees with those of the Company’s shareholders;
·  
reward performance and further the long-term interests of its shareholders;
·  
attract, motivate and retain executives and employees with competitive compensation for the Company’s industry and the labor markets in which it operates;
·  
build and encourage ownership of the Company’s shares; and
·  
balance short-term and long-term strategic goals.

Compensation Program Structure and Elements

Compensation Program Structure in the Fiscal Year Ended June 24, 2007

Our compensation program consists of base salary, discretionary cash bonuses and equity-based compensation.  In fiscal 2007, each Named Executive Officer’s compensation was primarily comprised of base salary and discretionary cash bonuses.  This compensation structure fit into the Company’s overall compensation objective because it afforded us control over the expense incurred by the Company in connection with the compensation of its Named Executive Officers and allowed us to limit compensation to levels that we believe are comparable to those offered in the local marketplace.

Base Salary

Base salary, which is designed to attract and retain qualified executives, provides a fixed amount of cash to our Named Executive Officers.  Base salaries for Named Executive Officers are generally determined on an individual basis by evaluating each executive’s scope of responsibility, performance, prior experience and salary history.  In setting fiscal 2007 base salaries, the Compensation Committee also considered executive compensation in the Company’s industry.  The Compensation Committee does not assign relative weight or rankings to these factors, but instead makes a subjective determination based upon the consideration of all of these factors.  Salary levels are typically considered annually as part of our performance review process as well as upon a promotion or other change in job responsibility.

Discretionary Cash Bonuses

We believe that some portion of the executive’s compensation should be contingent upon successful achievement of our corporate objectives. Therefore, as part of the Company’s compensation program, each of the Named Executive Officers is eligible to receive discretionary cash bonuses.  Bonuses paid to Named Executive Officers are determined by evaluating the financial performance of the Company against its annual budget as well as the successful completion of stated personal and Company goals.  All goals and objectives are subject to approval by the Compensation Committee at the beginning of the fiscal year.  We intend that our discretionary cash bonus program will focus management on achieving key financial and other performance objectives on a short-term basis, motivate certain desired individual behaviors and reward substantial achievement of financial and other performance objectives and individual goals on a short-term basis.

Equity-Based Compensation

The purpose of the equity-based compensation component is to instill the economic incentives of ownership in our Named Executive Officers and to create long-term incentives for management to increase shareholder value.  The Company uses vesting periods in its awards to encourage executives to remain with it and to focus on longer-term results.

Equity-based compensation is awarded pursuant to our 2005 Employee Stock Option Plan (the “2005 Plan”).  The Compensation Committee administers the 2005 Plan.  Subject to the terms of the 2005 Plan, the Compensation Committee determines the persons who are to receive awards, the number of shares subject to each such award and the terms, types and conditions of such awards.

In fiscal year 2007, the Compensation Committee reviewed and discussed the Company’s current compensation objectives, and the desired mix of cash and equity compensation.  No equity-based grants were made in fiscal 2007 under the 2005 Plan.

Other Compensation

Our Named Executive Officers also either participate or are eligible to participate in our other benefit plans and programs on the same terms as other employees, including a 401(k) plan, medical and dental insurance, term life insurance, short-term disability insurance, and long-term disability insurance.

Tax Code Considerations

Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code disallows a corporate income tax deduction for executive compensation paid to its chief executive officer or any of its four other highest compensated “covered employees” in excess of $1 million per year unless it is performance-based and is paid under a plan satisfying the requirements of Section 162(m).  Qualifying performance-based compensation is not subject to the deduction limit if certain requirements are met.  The Compensation Committee believes that the compensation arrangements with the Company’s executive officers will not exceed the limits on deductibility during the current fiscal year.  The Compensation Committee currently intends to structure the performance-based portion of the compensation of executive officers in a manner that complies with Section 162(m).

Item 13.
Certain Relationships and Related Transactions.

Transactions with Related Persons

There has not been any transaction, since the beginning of the Company’s last fiscal year, and is not any currently proposed transaction, in which (i) the Company was or is to be a participant, (ii) the amount involved exceeds $120,000, and (iii) any related person had or will have a direct or indirect material interest, that is required to be disclosed herein pursuant to Item 404 of Regulation S-K.

Review, Approval or Ratification of Transactions with Related Persons

It is the Company’s policy that all employees must avoid any activity that is or has the appearance of being hostile, adverse or competitive with the Company, or that interferes with the proper performance of their duties, responsibilities or loyalty to the Company.  These policies are included in the Company’s Code of Business Conduct and can be viewed at the Company’s website at http://www.pizzainn.com.  Each director and executive officer is instructed to always inform the Board when confronted with any situation that may be perceived as a conflict of interest, even if the person does not believe that the situation would violate the Company’s guidelines.  If, in a particular circumstance, it is concluded that there is or may be a perceived conflict of interest, the Board will instruct the Company’s legal department to work with the relevant departments within the Company to determine if there is a conflict of interest.  Any waivers of these conflict rules with regard to a director or executive officer require the prior approval of the Board or the Audit Committee.

Conflict of interest situations are also governed by the NASDAQ rules defining “independent” director status.  Each of the Company’s directors qualify as “independent” in accordance with the NASDAQ rules.  The NASDAQ rules include a series of objective tests that would not allow a director to be considered independent if the director had certain employment, business or family relationships with the Company.  The NASDAQ independence definition includes a requirement that the Board also review the relations of each independent director to the Company on a subjective basis.  In accordance with that review, the Board has made a subjective determination as to each independent director that no relationships exist that, in the opinion of the Board, would interfere with the exercise of independent judgment in carrying out the responsibilities of a director.  In making these determinations, the directors reviewed and discussed information provided by the directors and the Company with regard to each director’s business and personal activities as they may relate to the Company and the Company’s management.

 
 
Item 14.
Principal Accounting Fees and Services.

The following table discloses fees billed for or in each of the last two fiscal years for products or services rendered or provided by the Company’s principal accountant:

 
BDO Seidman
 
2006
2007
Audit Fees
$175,194
$175,434
Audit-Related Fees
    15,149
25,000
Tax Fees
      7,950
--
All Other Fees
    --
17,833
      Total
 $198,293
$218,267

Audit Fees.  This category represents aggregate fees billed by BDO Seidman, LLP for professional services rendered for the audit of the Company’s annual financial statements for the fiscal years ended June 25, 2006 and June 24, 2007, respectively, and the reviews of the financial statements included in the Company’s Forms 10-Q for those years.

Audit-Related Fees.  These fees consist of assurance and related services that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit or review of the Company’s financial statements.  This category includes fees related to the performance of audits and attest services not required by statute or regulations, audits of the Company’s benefits plans, review of the Company’s 2007 Uniform Franchise Offering Circular and providing consent to include audited financial statements, and accounting consultations regarding the application of generally accepted accounting principles to proposed transactions.

Tax Fees.  These fees consist of amounts billed by BDO Seidman, LLP for tax services, including preparation and review of the Company’s federal and state income tax returns, during fiscal years 2006 and 2007.

All Other Fees.  These fees consist of amounts billed by BDO Seidman, LLP for work related to the distribution outsourcing and sale leaseback transaction in the second quarter of fiscal 2007..

In considering and authorizing these payments to the independent auditors for services unrelated to performance of the audit of the Company’s financial statements, the Audit Committee has determined that all such services undertaken by the independent auditors are not inconsistent with the independent auditor’s performance of the audit and financial statement review functions and are compatible with maintaining the independent auditor’s independence.

Audit Committee's Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures

The Audit Committee is responsible for appointing, setting compensation for, and overseeing the work of, the independent auditor.  In accordance with Audit Committee policy and the requirements of law, all services to be provided by BDO Seidman, LLP are pre-approved by the Audit Committee.  Pre-approval applies to audit services, audit-related services, tax services and other services. In some cases, pre-approval is provided by the full Audit Committee for up to a year, and relates to a particular defined task or scope of work and is subject to a specific budget.  In other cases, the Chairman of the Audit Committee has the delegated authority from the Audit Committee to pre-approve additional services, and such pre-approvals are then communicated to the full Audit Committee.  All services described above were approved by the audit committee pursuant to Rule 2-01(c)(7)(i)(C) of Regulation S-X.
