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).

Timothy
P. Taft, our former President and CEO, entered into an employment agreement
with
the Company on March 31, 2005, which Mr. Taft agreed to amend effective November 30,
2006. His employment agreement was for a term that extended through
June 30, 2007. It provided Mr. Taft with a total salary in the first
12 months of $1.00 plus any bonus determined by the Board. During the
six-month period between April 2006 and September 2006, Mr. Taft agreed
to be paid a total salary of approximately $12,000. Pursuant to
his employment agreement, Mr. Taft began receiving a salary of $300,000 per
year
in October 2006. In June 2007, Mr. Taft was eligible for a total
bonus potential of $338,000, of which $138,000 was guaranteed. His
employment agreement also provided for a grant of 500,000 non-qualified stock
options on March 31, 2005, with 50,000 of such options vesting immediately
and
the remainder vesting over three years. On August 15, 2007 Mr. Taft
submitted his resignation to the Company. In connection with Mr.
Taft’s resignation, the Company agreed to pay Mr. Taft severance of $300,000
representing one year of salary, payable in twelve equal monthly
installments.

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.

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.
