The Companys debt facilities contain restrictions on additional borrowing,
certain asset sales, capital expenditures, dividend payments, certain investments and related-party transactions, as well as requirements to maintain various financial ratios. At September 28, 2010, the Company was in compliance with all of its
debt covenants.

Under the provisions of the credit agreement for the Senior Secured Credit Facility, the Company is required
under certain circumstances to make an excess cash flow mandatory prepayment on the term loan notes not later than 120 days after each fiscal year end. Based upon the amount of excess cash flow generated during fiscal 2009 and the Companys
leverage at fiscal 2009 year end, each of which is defined in the credit agreement, the Company was required to make an excess cash flow mandatory prepayment of $31.3 million. This amount was included in the current portion of long-term debt at
December 29, 2009 and was paid utilizing cash reserves on March 30, 2010. Based on currently expected 2010 results, the Company anticipates that it will be required to make a mandatory prepayment of between $27 million and $33 million in
2011, depending upon the amount of excess cash flow generated during its fiscal year and its leverage at fiscal year-end. As this is a preliminary estimate, the final excess cash flow mandatory prepayment could ultimately differ
materially from the amounts reflected above and as such the Company has not reflected any of this estimate as a current liability. Such payment is due the earlier of 120 days after the end of the current fiscal year or 30 days after the Company
files its form 10-K for the current fiscal year.

Based upon independent trading data the estimated fair value of the
Companys debt facilities was as follows (in thousands):

The Company determined the estimated fair value using available
market information. However, the fair value estimates presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the amount that the Companys debt holders could realize in an actual market transaction.

Note 4  Income Taxes

For the 39 weeks ended September 28, 2010, the Company recorded income tax expense of $4.5 million which resulted in an effective income tax rate of 20.1% compared to income tax expense of $0.2
million during the 39 weeks ended September 29, 2009. For the 39 weeks ended September 28, 2010, the lower than statutory rate was primarily attributable to tax credits and the net tax benefit of $1.2 million associated with the change in
the liability for uncertain tax positions. During the 39 weeks ended September 29, 2009, the Company recorded a net tax benefit of $1.9 million associated with the change in the liability for uncertain tax positions. Additionally, during this
period the Company recorded $0.4 million of income tax benefit related to state tax rate changes and federal tax credit carry back adjustments. Excluding the impact of these discrete items totaling $2.3 million, the Companys income tax expense
would have been $2.1 million or 20.2% for the 39 weeks ended September 29, 2009.

Note 5  Commitments and Contingencies

On May 12, 2009, a lawsuit against the Company, entitled Jeffrey Wass, et al. v. NPC International, Inc., Case No. 2:09-CV-2254-JWL-KGS, was filed in the United States District Court for the
District of Kansas. A First Amended Complaint, entitled Jeffrey Wass and Mark Smith, et al. v. NPC International, Inc., was filed on July 2, 2009. The Complaint was brought by Plaintiffs Wass and Smith individually and on behalf of similarly
situated employees who work or previously worked as delivery drivers for NPC. The First Amended Complaint alleged a collective action under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) to recover unpaid wages and excessive deductions owed to
plaintiffs and similarly situated workers employed by NPC in 28 states, and as a class action under Colorado law on behalf of Plaintiff Smith and all other similarly situated workers employed by NPC in Colorado to recover unpaid minimum wages and
excess payroll deductions and certain costs relating to uniforms and special apparel. The First Amended Complaint alleged among other things that NPC deprived plaintiffs and other NPC delivery drivers of minimum wages by providing insufficient
reimbursements for automobile and other job-related expenses incurred for the purposes of delivering NPCs pizza and other food items.

On March 2, 2010, the Court entered an Order granting NPCs motions for judgment on the pleadings as to all claims brought by plaintiffs in the First Amended Complaint, with the exception of a
claim for the reimbursement of uniform costs under Colorado law. The Order provided that the claims failed to state a claim under the FLSA and Colorado law and, therefore, would be dismissed with prejudice unless plaintiffs filed a Second Amended
Complaint that cured the deficiencies in the First Amended Complaint. The Order also operated to moot plaintiffs then-pending motion for conditional collective action certification.

Plaintiffs filed a Second Amended Complaint on March 22, 2010, which alleged a collective action under the FLSA on behalf of
plaintiffs and similarly situated workers employed by NPC in 28 states, and a class action under Rule 23 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure on behalf of Plaintiff Smith and similarly situated workers employed in states in which the state
minimum wage is higher than the federal minimum wage. The Second Amended Complaint contended that NPC deprived delivery drivers of minimum wages by providing insufficient reimbursements for automobile expenses incurred for the purposes of
delivering NPCs pizza and other food items. NPC filed a motion to dismiss the Second Amended Complaint on April 8, 2010.

On June 24, 2010, the Court granted NPCs motion to dismiss the Second Amended Complaint as to all claims filed by Plaintiff Wass, all Plaintiffs who had opted in to the class and all putative
class members. The only claims not dismissed were the individual claims of one remaining class representative, Mark Smith. The Courts Order did not grant Plaintiffs leave to amend the Second Amended Complaint, but Plaintiffs filed a motion
seeking leave to amend. NPC filed an opposition to the motion on July 27, 2010.

On September 1, 2010, the Court
granted plaintiffs leave to file their Third Amended Complaint, which was filed on September 3, 2010, again asserting claims by Wass and all class members. NPC filed a motion for summary judgment as to named plaintiff Wass claims on
September 17, 2010. Wass filed his opposition on October 8, 2010. NPC replied on October 22, 2010. Because the motion is pending before the Court, NPC is not able to predict the outcome of this suit or possible loss ranges, nor, its
effect on NPCs operations or financial condition.

On September 30, 2010 the Court entered a routine scheduling
order, setting January 21, 2011 as the deadline for plaintiffs to file a motion for conditional certification of a collective action under FLSA. It also set deadlines for class discovery, but did not at that time set deadlines for Rule 23
certification, final discovery, dispositive motions, decertification, or trial. The Company believes the lawsuit is wholly without merit and will defend itself from all claims vigorously.

Note 6  Derivative Financial
Instruments

The Company participates in interest rate related derivative instruments to manage its exposure on its debt
instruments, which the Company designated as cash flow hedges. Gains and losses on derivative instruments designated as cash flow hedges are reported in other comprehensive income and reclassified into earnings in the periods in which earnings are
impacted by the hedged item. The following interest rate swap contracts were entered into as a hedge to fix a portion of the term loan notes under the Senior Secured Credit Facility and provide for fixed rates as compared to the three-month LIBOR
rate on the following notional amounts of floating rate debt at September 28, 2010:

The Company currently
estimates that earnings will be negatively impacted by approximately $2.1 million within the next twelve months, contemporaneously with the net settlement of the underlying interest payments, which may vary based on actual changes within the
LIBOR market rates.

The Company estimates the fair value of its interest rate swap contracts using independent market data
considered to be a Level 2 observable input. The Company uses a mark-to-market valuation based on observable interest rate yield curves which are adjusted for credit risk. During the third quarter and year-to-date periods of fiscal 2010 and 2009,
there was virtually no ineffectiveness related to cash flow hedges.

Note 8  Related-Party
Transactions

MLGPE Advisory Agreement.On May 3, 2006, the Company entered into an advisory agreement with an
affiliate of MLGPE pursuant to which such entity or its affiliates will provide advisory services to the Company. Under the agreement MLGPE or its affiliates will continue to provide financial, investment banking, management advisory and other
services on the Companys behalf for an annual fee of $1.0 million. The Company has paid $1.0 million to MLGPE for this fee for fiscal 2010 and fiscal 2009, which is being amortized ratably to expense.

Bank of America Merchant Services.In January 2009, Bank of America Corporation (BOA) acquired the parent company of
MLGPE, Merrill Lynch & Co., Inc. During both the 39 weeks ended September 28, 2010 and September 29, 2009, the Company paid Bank of America Merchant Services, an affiliate of BOA, $0.3 million for credit card processing
services.

Bank of America, N.A.In December 2009, the Company opened a money market account with Bank of America, N.A.,
an affiliate of BOA, to invest any excess cash balances on hand. As of September 28, 2010, the Company had $38.1 million invested in this account. These investments are trading securities, which are included in cash and cash equivalents, and
the fair value of the investment was determined using independent market data considered to be a Level 2 observable input.

Participation in Senior Secured Credit Facility. Bank of America, N.A., an affiliate of BOA, and Merrill Lynch Capital Corporation
(MLCC), an affiliate of MLGPE, were active participants in the Companys Senior Secured Credit Facility. As of September 28, 2010, Bank of America, N.A., held $1.9 million, or 1.0%, of the term loan notes outstanding and $12.5
million, or 16.7%, of the revolving credit facility, and MLCC held $7.5 million, or 10.0%, of the revolving credit facility. The Company had no amounts outstanding on the revolving credit facility as of September 28, 2010.

Note 9  New Accounting Pronouncements

In January 2010, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU No. 2010-06, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (ASU 2010-06), which amends ASC
820 and requires additional disclosure related to recurring and non-recurring fair value measurements in respect of transfers in and out of Levels 1 and 2 and activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. The update also clarifies existing disclosure
requirements related to the level of disaggregation and disclosure about inputs and valuation techniques. ASU 2010-06 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2009 except for disclosures related to activity in
Level 3 fair value measurements which are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010 and for interim periods within those fiscal years. The Company does not expect the provisions of ASU 2010-06 to have a material effect on the
financial position, results of operations or cash flows of the Company.

Overview

Who We Are.We are the largest Pizza Hut franchisee and the largest franchisee of any restaurant concept in the United States
according to the 2009 Top 200 Restaurant Franchisees by Franchise Times. We were founded in 1962 and, as of September 28, 2010 we operated 1,143 Pizza Hut units in 28 states with significant presence in the Midwest, South and

##### Table of Contents

Southeast. As of the third quarter 2010, our operations represented approximately 19% of the domestic Pizza Hut restaurant system and 21% of the domestic Pizza Hut franchised restaurant system as
measured by number of units, excluding licensed units which operate with a limited menu and no delivery in certain of our markets.

Our Fiscal Year.We operate on a 52- or 53-week fiscal year ending on the last Tuesday in December. Fiscal year 2010 and 2009 each contains 52 weeks.

Our Sales

Net
Product Sales.Net product sales are comprised of sales of food and beverages from our restaurants, net of discounts. For the 39 weeks ended September 28, 2010, pizza sales accounted for approximately 79% of net product sales. Various
factors influence sales at a given unit, including customer recognition of the Pizza Hut brand, our level of service and operational effectiveness, pricing, marketing and promotional efforts and local competition. Several factors affect our sales in
any period, including the number of units in operation, comparable store sales and seasonality. Comparable store sales refer to period-over-period net product sales comparisons for units under our operation for at least 12 months.

Fees and Other Income.Fees and other income are comprised primarily of delivery fees charged to customers, vending
receipts and other fee income and are not included in our comparable store sales metric.

Seasonality.Our business is
seasonal in nature with net product sales typically being higher in the first half of the fiscal year. Sales are largely driven by product innovation, advertising and promotional activities and can be adversely impacted by holidays and economic
times that generally negatively impact consumer discretionary spending, such as the back to school season. As a result of these seasonal fluctuations, our operating results may vary substantially between fiscal quarters. Further, results for any
quarter are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved for the full fiscal year.

Restaurant
formats. We operate our Pizza Hut restaurants through three different formats to cater to the needs of our customers in each respective market. Delivery units, or Delcos, are typically located in strip centers and provide delivery
and carry-out, with a greater proportion being located in more densely populated areas. Red Roof units, or RRs, are traditional free-standing, dine-in restaurants which offer on-location dining room service as well as carry-out service.
Restaurant-Based Delivery units, or RBDs, conduct delivery, dine-in, and carry-out operations from the same free-standing location. Approximately 45% of our units include the WingStreet product line at September 28, 2010. The
WingStreet menu includes bone-in and bone-out fried chicken wings which are tossed in one of eight sauces and appetizers which are available for dine-in, carry-out and delivery.

The following table sets forth certain information with respect to each year-to-date fiscal period:

Our Costs

Our operating costs and expenses are comprised of cost of sales, direct labor, other restaurant expenses and general and administrative expenses. Our cost structure is highly variable with approximately
70% of operating costs variable to sales and volume of transactions.

Cost of sales.Cost of sales includes the cost of
food and beverage products sold, less rebates from suppliers, as well as paper and packaging, and is primarily influenced by fluctuations in commodity prices. Historically, our cost of sales has primarily been comprised of the following: cheese:
30-35%; dough: 16-19%; meat: 13-17%; and packaging: 8-10%. These

costs can fluctuate from year-to-year due to a shift in product mix and given the commodity nature of the cost category, but are constant across regions. We are a member of the UFPC, a
cooperative set up to act as a central procurement service for the operators of Yum! Brands, Inc. restaurants, and participate in various cheese hedging and procurement programs that are directed by the UFPC for cheese, meat and certain other
commodities to help reduce the price volatility of those commodities from period-to-period. Based on information provided by the UFPC, the UFPC expects to hedge approximately 30% to 50% of the Pizza Hut systems anticipated cheese purchases
through a combination of derivatives taken under the direction of the UFPC.

Direct Labor.Direct labor includes the
salary, payroll taxes, fringe benefit costs and workers compensation expense associated with restaurant based personnel. Direct labor is highly dependent on federal and state minimum wage rate legislation given that the vast majority of our
workers are hourly employees. To control labor costs, we are focused on proper scheduling and adequate training of our store employees, as well as retention of existing employees.

Other restaurant operating expenses.Other restaurant operating expenses include all other costs directly associated with
operating a restaurant facility, which primarily represents royalties, advertising, rent and depreciation (facilities and equipment), utilities, delivery expenses, supplies, repairs, insurance, and other restaurant related costs.

Included within other restaurant operating expenses are royalties paid to Pizza Hut, Inc. (PHI). Our blended average royalty
rate for the year-to-date periods of both 2010 and 2009 was 4.8% of total sales.

General and administrative expenses.General and administrative expenses include field supervision and personnel costs and the corporate and administrative functions that support our restaurants, including employee wages and benefits, travel, information systems, recruiting and
training costs, professional fees, supplies, insurance and bank service and credit card transaction fees.

Trends and Uncertainties
Affecting Our Business

We believe that as a franchisee of such a large number of Pizza Hut restaurants, our financial
success is driven less by variable factors that affect regional restaurants and their markets, and more by trends affecting the food purchase industry  specifically the Quick Service Restaurants or QSR industry. The following
discussion describes certain key factors that may affect our future performance.

General Economic Conditions and Consumer Spending

Consumers continue to face high unemployment rates, lower home values and a more stringent credit environment. Low
consumer confidence as a result of these changes within the economic environment has caused the consumer to experience a real and perceived reduction in disposable income which has negatively impacted consumer spending in most segments of the
restaurant industry, including the segment in which we compete. While general economic conditions appear to be stabilizing, we believe pressures on low and lower-middle income customers continue to be significant, and we believe that these customers
are particularly interested in receiving value at a reasonable price in the current environment.

Competition

The QSR industry is a fragmented market, with competition from national and regional chains, as well as independent operators, which
affects pricing strategies and margins. Additionally, there is increasing competition in the pizza segment from the frozen pizza and take-and-bake alternatives. Limited product variability within our segment can make differentiation among
competitors difficult. Thus, competitors continuously promote and market new product introductions, price discounts and bundled deals, and rely heavily on effective marketing and advertising to drive sales.

Commodity Prices

Commodity prices of packaging products (liner board) and ingredients such as cheese, dough (wheat), and meat, can vary. The prices of
these commodities can fluctuate throughout the year due to changes in supply and demand. Our costs can also fluctuate as a result of changes in ingredients or packaging instituted by PHI.

Overall, our total commodity costs were higher during the third quarter of 2010 than the prior year, largely due to higher meat and
cheese costs which were partially offset by lower packaging costs. The average meat price for the third quarter of 2010 increased $0.42 per pound or 28% as compared to the third quarter of 2009. The average block cheese price was $1.62 per pound for
the third quarter of fiscal 2010, an increase of $0.36 or 29% versus the average price for the third quarter of 2009.

Labor Cost

The restaurant industry is labor intensive and known for having a high level of employee turnover given low hourly wages and the part-time
composition of the workforce. To the extent that our delivery sales mix increases due to acquisition of units or customer preference, our labor costs would be expected to increase due to the more labor intensive nature of the delivery transaction.
Direct labor is highly dependent on federal and state minimum wage rate legislation given the vast majority of workers are hourly employees whose compensation is either determined or influenced by the minimum wage rate. There has been legislation
passed in recent years to increase certain states and federal minimum wage rates. This has resulted in incremental direct labor expense which we have attempted to mitigate through pricing initiatives, productivity improvement in our
restaurants, better overall wage management tactics and other auxiliary cost reduction strategies. The federal tipped wage rate remained unchanged at $2.13 per hour. The expected impact on our direct labor costs for these changes is described below
under Inflation and Deflation.

The federal government and several state governments have proposed or enacted
legislation regarding health care, including legislation that in some cases requires employers to either provide health care coverage to their full-time employees, pay a penalty or pay into a fund that would provide coverage for them. We are
currently evaluating the effects on our business of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, which was signed into law on March 23, 2010, and the related Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010, which was signed into law on
March 30, 2010 (collectively, the Federal Health Care Acts). The provisions of the Federal Health Care Acts having the greatest potential financial impact on us are scheduled to become effective in 2014. Based upon our current
evaluation, we expect that the Federal Health Care Acts will likely increase our future costs and could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition, but we are currently unable to quantify the amount
of the impact with any degree of certainty.

Additionally, potential changes in federal labor laws, including the possible
enactment of the Employee Free Choice Act (EFCA), could result in portions of our workforce being subjected to greater organized labor influence. The EFCA, also referred to as the card check bill, if passed in its current
form could significantly change the nature of labor relations in the United States, specifically, how union elections and contract negotiations are conducted. Although we do not currently have union employees, the EFCA could impose more requirements
and union activity on our business, thereby potentially increasing our costs, and could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

Inflation and Deflation

Inflationary factors, such as increases in
food and labor costs, directly affect our operations. Because most of our employees are paid on an hourly basis, changes in rates related to federal and state minimum wage and tip credit laws will affect our labor costs. The rollover impact of the
July 24, 2009 federal minimum wage increase was approximately $3.0 million for fiscal year 2010. We are not always able to offset higher food, labor, fuel and other costs with price increases.

If the economy experiences deflation, which is a persistent decline in the general price level of goods and services, we may
suffer a decline in revenues as a result of the falling prices. In that event, given our fixed costs and minimum wage requirements, it is unlikely that we would be able to reduce our costs at the same pace as any declines in revenues. Consequently,
a period of prolonged or significant deflation would likely have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Similarly, if we reduce the prices we charge for our products as a result of declines in
comparable store sales or competitive pressures, we may suffer decreased revenues, margins, income and cash flow from operations.

Critical
Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are
based upon our unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The preparation of these financial statements requires estimation and judgment that affect the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets, and liabilities. We base our
estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not
readily apparent from other sources. If these estimates differ materially from actual results, the impact on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements may be material. Our critical accounting policies are available in Item 7 of
our 2009 Form 10-K. There have been no significant changes with respect to these policies during the first 39 weeks of fiscal 2010 except as described below.

Accounting for Goodwill. The Company has one operating segment and reporting unit for purposes of evaluating goodwill for impairment. Goodwill was $191.7 million as of September 28, 2010 and
December 29, 2009, respectively.

Goodwill primarily
originated with the acquisition of the Company by a new controlling shareholder in May 2006. Additional goodwill was recorded in connection with multiple acquisitions of Pizza Hut units since 2006.

We evaluate goodwill for impairment annually and at any other date when events or changes in circumstances indicate that potential
impairment is more likely than not and that the carrying amount of goodwill may not be recoverable.

The goodwill impairment
test involves a two-step process. The first step is a comparison of the reporting units fair value to its carrying value. If the carrying value exceeds fair value, goodwill is considered potentially impaired and we must complete the second
step of the goodwill impairment test. Under step two, the implied fair value of the reporting units goodwill is compared with the carrying amount of the reporting units goodwill. If the carrying amount of goodwill is greater than the
implied fair value of goodwill, an impairment loss would be recognized in an amount equal to the excess. The implied fair value of goodwill is calculated in the same manner as the amount of goodwill that is recognized in a business combination by
allocating fair value to all assets and liabilities (both recognized and unrecognized). The difference between the fair value and the sum of the amounts that are assigned to recognized and unrecognized assets and liabilities is the implied value of
goodwill.

Three calculation methodologies are considered when determining fair value of the reporting unit: the asset
approach, the market approach and the income approach. The asset approach was not used as we have significant intangible value that is dependent on our cash flow. The market approach was not used due to deficiencies in the quality and quantity of
comparable company data. The income approach explicitly recognizes that the current value of an investment or asset is premised upon the expected receipt of future economic benefits. When applied to a business ownership interest, a value indication
is developed by discounting expected cash flows to their present value at a rate of return that incorporates the risk-free rate for the use of the funds, the expected rate of inflation, and the risk associated with the particular investment. The
discount rate selected is generally based on the rates of return available from alternative investments of similar type and quality as of the valuation date. The discounted cash flow method provides an indication of value by discounting future net
cash flows available for distribution to their present worth at a rate that reflects both the current requirement of the market and the risk inherent in the specific investment. The income approach was used to determine our fair value.

Management judgment is a significant factor in determining whether an indicator of impairment has occurred. Management relies on
estimates in determining the fair value of each reporting unit, which include the following critical quantitative factors:

Anticipated future cash flows and terminal value for each reporting unit. The income approach to determining fair value relies on the timing and estimates of future cash flows, including an
estimate of terminal value. The projections use managements estimates of economic and market conditions over the projected period including growth rates in sales and estimates of expected changes in operating margins. Our projections of future
cash flows are subject to change if actual results are achieved that differ from those anticipated. We do not expect actual results to vary such that there would be a material change to the estimated fair value of our reporting unit.

Selection of an appropriate discount rate. The income approach requires the selection of an appropriate discount rate, which is
based on a weighted average cost of capital analysis. The discount rate is subject to changes in short-term interest rates and long-term yield as well as variances in the typical capital structure of marketplace participants in the quick service
restaurant industry. The discount rate is determined based on assumptions that would be used by marketplace participants, and for that reason, the capital structure of selected marketplace participants was used in the weighted average cost of
capital analysis. Given the current volatile economic conditions, it is possible that the discount rate could change.

We
completed our annual impairment testing during the second quarter of 2010 and determined that goodwill was not impaired. A key assumption on our fair value estimate using the income approach is the discount rate. We selected a weighted average cost
of capital of 10.8%.

Thirteen
Weeks Ended September 28, 2010 Compared to September 29, 2009

Net Product Sales.Net product sales
for the third quarter of 2010 compared to 2009, were $226.7 million and $205.1 million, respectively, an increase of $21.6 million, or 10.6%, resulting largely from a comparable store sales increase of 10.9% for the third quarter of 2010, rolling
over last years third quarter comparable store sales decrease of 12.9% and a 0.8% decrease in equivalent units. The improved comparable store sales results are largely a result of our continued sales momentum associated with our simplified
value pricing strategy and the introduction of the Big Italy pizza during the quarter.

Fees and Other Income.Fees and
other income were $10.4 million for the third quarter of 2010, compared to $8.8 million for the prior year, for an increase of $1.6 million or 17.8%. The increase was due to higher customer delivery charge income from increased delivery
transactions.

Cost of Sales.Cost of sales was $65.9 million for the third quarter of 2010, compared to $53.9 million
for the prior year for an increase of $12.0 million or 22.3%. Cost of sales increased 2.8%, as a percentage of net product sales, to 29.1%, compared to 26.3% in the prior year. This increase was largely due to lower net pricing and product mix
changes as well as higher ingredient costs which were partially offset by lower packaging costs, resulting in a higher cost of sales percentage as compared to prior period.

With the continuation of our value pricing strategy, we continued to realize a shift in both pizza size and toppings, which has resulted in a higher level of sales of large and specialty (3+ topping)
pizzas when compared to the prior year. Because our net selling price is significantly less than the prior year, it has resulted in a higher cost of sales percentage.

Direct Labor.Direct labor costs for the third quarter of 2010 were $69.3 million compared to $65.3 million for the prior year, an increase of $4.0 million, or 6.1%. Direct labor costs were 30.5% of net product sales for the third quarter of 2010, a 1.3%
decrease compared to the prior year. The favorable variance was primarily due to the sales leveraging impact on fixed and semi-fixed labor costs and decreased health insurance costs (approximately 50 basis points) due to favorable claims experience
as compared to the prior year.

Other Restaurant Operating Expenses.Other restaurant operating expenses for the 13
weeks ended September 28, 2010 and September 29, 2009 were $76.4 million and $73.4 million, respectively, an increase of $3.0 million, or 4%. Other operating expenses were 33.7% of net product sales for the third quarter of 2010 compared
to 35.8% of net product sales for the same period of the prior year, a decrease of 2.1%.

The changes in the other restaurant
operating expenses as a percentage of net product sales are explained as follows:

The favorable variance was largely due to the sales leveraging impact on fixed and semi-fixed costs,
primarily occupancy costs and depreciation, as well as lower telephone expense and outsourced call center expenses for a certain acquisition market in the prior year which was brought in-house in late third quarter 2009. These decreases were
partially offset by higher restaurant manager bonuses due to improved financial results.

Depreciation expense for store
operations was $8.4 million or 3.7% of net product sales for the third quarter of 2010 compared to $9.9 million or 4.8% of net product sales for the prior year. The decrease in depreciation expense as compared to the prior year is largely due to
short-lived assets from the 2008 and 2009 unit acquisitions becoming fully depreciated.

General and Administrative
Expenses.General and administrative expenses for the 13 weeks ended September 28, 2010 and September 29, 2009 were both $11.9 million. Higher credit card transaction fees from increased sales volume of $0.3 million were offset by
lower salaries and profit sharing expense as compared to the prior year.

Corporate Depreciation and Amortization.Corporate depreciation and amortization costs were $2.9 million and $3.0 million for the third quarter of 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Other.We recorded expense of $0.3 million and $0.7 million for other expenses during the third quarter of 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Interest Expense.Interest expense was $7.3 million for the third quarter of 2010 compared to $7.7 million for the prior year, a
decrease of $0.4 million due to lower average outstanding debt balances as compared to the prior year. Our cash borrowing rate was 6.5% for both the third quarter of 2010 and 2009 and our average outstanding debt balance decreased $35.0 million to
$402.4 million for the third quarter of 2010. Interest expense included $0.6 million and $0.5 million for amortization of deferred debt issuance costs in the third quarter 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Income Taxes.For the 13 weeks ended September 28, 2010, we recorded an income tax benefit of $0.2 million compared to an
income tax benefit of $3.2 million for the 13 weeks ended September 29, 2009. The income tax benefit for the third quarter of 2010 was largely due to a favorable discrete tax adjustment of $1.5 million related to the release of liabilities for
uncertain tax positions partially offset by tax expense for the quarter of $1.3 million. The income tax benefit for the third quarter of 2009 was largely due to a favorable discrete tax adjustment of $2.1 million related to the release of
liabilities for uncertain tax positions which was partially offset by an unfavorable discrete tax adjustment of $0.5 million for federal tax credit carry back adjustments. Additionally, during the third quarter last year, the 2009 anticipated annual
tax rate was decreased 11% to 20.2% excluding discrete items, due to lower projected taxable income which resulted in a third quarter 2009 tax benefit.

Net income.Net income for the 13 weeks ended September 28, 2010 was $3.5 million, compared to $1.3 million for the prior year. The increase was primarily due to the benefit of a 10.6%
increase in net product sales and increased customer delivery charge income which were partially offset by increased cost of sales, direct labor costs and other restaurant operating expenses.

Thirty-Nine Weeks Ended
September 28, 2010 Compared to September 29, 2009-adjusted for discontinued operations

Net Product Sales.Net product sales for the 39 weeks ended September 28, 2010 were $715.3 million compared to $641.8 million for the same period of 2009, an increase of $73.5 million, or 11.5%, resulting largely from a comparable store sales increase of
10.5% for the 39 weeks ended September 28, 2010, rolling over last years comparable store sales decline of 10.1%. The improved comparable store sales results are largely a result of our continued sales momentum associated with our $10 Any
Pizza promotion during the first half of the year and our simplified value pricing strategy introduced during the third quarter of 2010.

Fees and Other Income.Fees and other income were $33.1 million for the 39 weeks ended September 28, 2010, compared to $28.3 million for the prior year, for an increase of $4.8 million or
16.9%. The increase was due to higher customer delivery charge income from increased delivery transactions.

Cost of Sales.Cost of sales was $213.8 million for the 39 weeks ended September 28, 2010, compared to $170.8 million for the prior year for an increase of $43.0 million or 25.2%. Cost of sales increased 3.3%, as a percentage of net product sales, to
29.9%, compared to 26.6% in the prior year. This increase was largely due to lower net pricing and product mix changes due to the $10 Any Pizza promotion and our simplified pricing strategy, as well as higher ingredient costs, primarily meat. With
the $10 Any Pizza promotion and our simplified pricing, we realized a shift in both pizza size and toppings, which resulted in a higher level of sales of large and specialty (3+ topping) pizzas when compared to the prior year. Because our net
selling price is significantly less than the prior year, it has resulted in a higher cost of sales percentage.

Direct
Labor.Direct labor costs for the 39 weeks ended September 28, 2010 as compared to the prior year were $214.9 million and $197.0 million, respectively, an increase of $17.9 million, or 9.1%. Direct labor costs were 30.0% of net product
sales for the 39 weeks ended September 28, 2010, a 0.7% decrease compared to the prior year. The favorable variance was primarily due to the sales leveraging impact on fixed and semi-fixed labor costs and decreased health insurance costs
(approximately 20 basis points) due to favorable claims experience as compared to the prior year which were partially offset by increased average wage rates (approximately 40 basis points) related to the July 2009 minimum wage increase.

Other Restaurant Operating Expenses.Other restaurant operating expenses for the 39 weeks ended September 28, 2010 as
compared to the prior year were $229.0 million and $221.4 million, respectively, an increase of $7.6 million, or 3.4%. Other operating expenses were 32.0% of net product sales for the 39 weeks ended September 28, 2010 compared to 34.5% of net
product sales for the prior year, a decrease of 2.5%.

The changes in the other restaurant operating expenses as a percentage
of net product sales are explained as follows:

The favorable variance was largely due to the sales leveraging impact on fixed and semi-fixed costs,
primarily depreciation and occupancy costs, lower telephone expense and outsourced call center expenses for a certain acquisition market in the prior year which was brought in-house in late third quarter 2009. These decreases were partially offset
by increased delivery driver reimbursement expenses due to increased delivery transactions and higher fuel costs and higher restaurant manager bonuses.

Depreciation expense for store operations was $24.5 million or 3.4% of net product sales for the 39 weeks ended September 28, 2010 compared to $29.4 million or 4.6% of net product sales for the prior
year. The decrease in depreciation expense as compared to the prior year is largely due to short-lived assets from the 2008 and 2009 unit acquisitions becoming fully depreciated.

General and
Administrative Expenses.General and administrative expenses for the 39 weeks ended September 28, 2010 were $36.3 million compared to $36.7 million for the prior year, a decrease of $0.4 million or 0.9%. This decrease is largely due to a
reduction in certain employee related compensation expenses and targeted headcount reductions of approximately $1.1 million. Additionally, increased credit card transaction fees from higher sales volume in the current year of $1.2 million were
partially offset by approximately $0.5 million for non-recurring acquisition integration costs incurred in the first half of 2009.

Corporate Depreciation and Amortization.Corporate depreciation and amortization costs were $8.6 million and $8.8 million for the 39 weeks ended September 28, 2010 and September 29, 2009,
respectively.

Other.We recorded other expense of $1.1 million and $1.5 million for the 39 weeks ended
September 28, 2010 and September 29, 2009, respectively. Included in this category for the 39 weeks ended September 28, 2010 were facility impairment charges of $1.2 million compared to charges of $0.9 million for the same period of
the prior year. The 39 weeks ended September 29, 2009 also included direct acquisition costs which were required to be expensed under accounting guidance for business combinations effective for fiscal year 2009 of $0.5 million.

Interest Expense.Interest expense was $22.2 million for the 39 weeks ended September 28, 2010 compared to $23.4 million for
the prior year, a decrease of $1.2 million due to lower average outstanding debt balances as compared to the prior year. Our cash borrowing rate for the 39 weeks ended September 28, 2010 was flat as compared to the prior year at 6.5%, however,
our average outstanding debt balance decreased $36.0 million to $412.8 million for the 39 weeks ended September 28, 2010 largely due to the payment of our mandatory excess cash flow pre-payment of $31.3 million during the first quarter of 2010.
Interest expense included $1.9 million and $1.5 million for amortization of deferred debt issuance costs for the 39 week periods of 2010 and 2009, respectively.

Income Taxes.For the 39 weeks ended September 28, 2010, we recorded income tax expense of $4.5 million which resulted in an effective income tax rate of 20.1% compared to an income tax
benefit of $0.2 million for the prior year. For the 39 weeks ended September 28, 2010, the lower than statutory rate was primarily attributable to tax credits and the net tax benefit of $1.2 million associated with the change in the liability
for uncertain tax positions consisting of the release of liabilities due to the lapse of applicable statutes of limitations which was partially offset by additional interest and penalties accrued.

During 2009, we recorded a net tax benefit of $1.9 million associated with the change in the liability for uncertain tax positions
consisting of the release of liabilities due to the lapse of applicable statutes of limitations which was partially offset by additional interest and penalties accrued. Additionally, we recorded $0.4 million of income tax benefit related to state
tax rate changes and federal tax credit carry back adjustments. Excluding the impact of these discrete items totaling $2.3 million, our income tax expense would have been $2.1 million or 20.2% of net income before taxes for the 39 weeks ended
September 29, 2009. The lower than statutory rates for both years were due to the impact of tax credits in relation to income before taxes.

Income from Continuing Operations, net of taxes.Income from continuing operations for the 39 weeks ended September 28, 2010 was $18.1 million, compared to $10.7 million for the prior
year. The increase was primarily due to the benefit of an 11.5% increase in net product sales, increased customer delivery charge income and lower interest expense which were partially offset by increases in cost of sales, restaurant operating
expenses and direct labor and higher income tax expense.

Liquidity and Sources of Capital

Our short-term and long-term liquidity needs will arise primarily from: (1) interest and principal payments related
to our existing credit facility and the senior subordinated notes; (2) capital expenditures, including those for our re-imaging plan and maintenance capital expenditures; (3) opportunistic acquisitions of Pizza Hut restaurants or other
acquisition opportunities; and (4) working capital requirements as may be needed to support our business. We intend to fund our operations, interest expense, capital expenditures, acquisitions and working capital requirements principally from
cash from operations, cash reserves and borrowings on our revolving credit facility. Future acquisitions, depending on the size, may require borrowings beyond those available on our existing revolving credit facility and therefore may require
further utilization of the additional remaining term loan borrowing capacity under our credit facility described below as well as other sources of debt or additional equity capital.

Any additional debt incurred, beyond the parameters established in our current credit agreement, or refinancing of any of our existing
indebtedness may result in increased borrowing costs that are in excess of our current borrowing costs based on current credit market conditions. We will continue to evaluate the credit markets as we assess the future potential refinancing of our
existing credit facility and our acquisition and other growth opportunities.

Our working capital was a deficit of $25.5
million at September 28, 2010. Like many other restaurant companies, we are able to operate and generally do operate with a working capital deficit. We are able to operate with a working capital deficit because (i) restaurant revenues are
received primarily in cash or by credit card with a low level of accounts receivable; (ii) rapid turnover results in a limited investment in inventories; and (iii) cash from sales is usually received before related liabilities for food,
supplies and payroll become due. Because we are able to operate with a working capital deficit, we have historically utilized excess cash flow from operations and our revolving line of credit for debt reduction, capital expenditures and
acquisitions, and to provide liquidity for our working capital needs. At September 28, 2010, we had $58.1 million of borrowing capacity available under our revolving line of credit net of $16.9 million of outstanding letters of credit.

Cash flows from operating activities

Cash from operations is our primary source of funds. Changes in earnings and working capital levels are the two key factors that generally have the greatest impact on cash from operations. Our operating
activities provided net cash inflows of $69.0 million for the 39 weeks ended September 28, 2010 compared to $51.8 million for the prior year. Cash flows from operations during the 39 weeks ended September 28, 2010 were positively impacted
by a $11.6 million increase from net changes in working capital and a $5.8 million positive impact of after tax cash flows from operations (after adding back non-cash items to net income) as compared to the prior year.

Cash flows from investing activities

Cash flows used in investing activities were $11.8 million during the 39 weeks ended September 28, 2010 compared to $32.2 million for the 39 weeks ended September 29, 2009. For the 39 weeks
ended September 28, 2010, we invested $13.9 million in capital expenditures. Additionally, we received proceeds of $2.1 million from asset sales as PHI exercised its option to purchase five assets which were part of the fiscal 2008 and 2009
sale transactions. During 2009, we completed an asset purchase and sale transaction with PHI in which we purchased 55 units for $18.7 million and sold 42 units for $19.5 million. We also completed an acquisition of 50 units for $14.1 million. During
the 39 weeks ended September 29, 2009 we invested $19.5 million in capital expenditures, consisting of approximately $14.0 million in our existing operations (including approximately $1.6 million for WingStreetdevelopment at 36 units) and $5.5 million for acquisition
related information technology equipment.

We currently expect our capital expenditure investment to be approximately $24
million to $26 million in fiscal 2011. This estimate includes the development of 16 Delco units.

Cash flows from financing activities

Net cash outflows for financing activities were $30.5 million for the 39 weeks ended September 28, 2010 compared to
$14.5 million for the 39 weeks ended September 29, 2009. We are required, under certain circumstances as defined in our credit agreement, to make an excess cash flow mandatory prepayment on our term loan notes not later than 120
days after each fiscal year end. During the first quarter of 2010, we paid our mandatory excess cash flow prepayment of $31.3 million on our senior secured credit facility utilizing cash reserves. The mandatory prepayment during 2009 was made in the
second quarter last year and totaled $17.1 million. We had no net activity on our revolving credit facility during the first 39 weeks of 2010 compared to net repayments of $3.0 million for the same period of 2009.

During the third
quarter of 2010, we completed a sale-leaseback transaction on one fee owned property for $0.9 million. During the first half of 2009 we completed sale-leaseback transactions for six properties acquired in Virginia during the fourth quarter of 2008
for $2.9 million and completed sale-leaseback transactions on two formerly leased properties (purchased in 2008) for $0.9 million. Additionally, during the third quarter of 2009, we completed sale-leaseback transactions for two properties
constructed in 2009 for $2.6 million.

Based on currently expected 2010 results, we anticipate that we will be required to
make a mandatory prepayment of an amount between $27 million and $33 million in 2011 depending upon the amount of excess cash flow generated during our fiscal year and our leverage at fiscal year-end. The excess cash flow mandatory prepayment is an
annual requirement under the credit agreement and is due the earlier of 120 days after the end of our current fiscal year or 30 days after we file our Form 10-K for our current fiscal year. As the excess cash flow mandatory prepayment is an
estimate, the final excess cash flow mandatory prepayment could ultimately differ materially from the amounts reflected above and as such we have not reflected any of this estimate as a current liability.

As of September 28, 2010, we were in compliance with all of the financial covenants under our senior secured credit facility.
Further, as shown in the following table, our financial leverage ratio has declined from 4.51x at fiscal 2009 year end to 4.00x as a result of our $31.3 million payment on our senior secured credit facility and improved operating results. Such
ratios do not include the benefit of our cash balances. Our ratios under the foregoing financial covenants in our credit agreement as of September 28, 2010 were as follows:



|                                |  |        |       |  |                      |                     |  |

|                                |  |        |       |  |                      |                     | 
|Maximum leverage ratio          |  |        | 4.00x |  |                      | Not more than 4.75x | 
|Minimum interest coverage ratio |  |        | 1.94x |  |                      | Not less than 1.75x |  | 

Based upon the provisions of our credit agreement, the
financial covenants applicable to the Company adjust based on the following schedule:



|                                      |  |               |       | 
|------------------------------------- |  | ------------- | ----- | 
|Maximum total leverage ratio          |  | LeverageRatio |      
|December 30, 2009 - December 28, 2010 |  |               | 4.75x | 
|December 29, 2010 - December 27, 2011 |  |               | 4.25x | 
|December 28, 2011 and thereafter      |  |               | 4.00x | 
|                                      | 
|Minimum interest coverage ratio       |  | CoverageRatio |      
|December 30, 2009 - June 29, 2010     |  |               | 1.70x | 
|June 30, 2010 and thereafter          |  |               | 1.75x | 

The credit agreement
defines Leverage Ratio as the ratio of Consolidated Debt for Borrowed Money to Consolidated EBITDA; Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio is defined as the ratio of (x) Consolidated EBITDA plus Rent Expense to
(y) Consolidated Interest Expense plus Rent Expense. All of the foregoing capitalized terms are defined in the Credit Agreement, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on October 31, 2006 as Exhibit 10.2 to the
Companys Registration Statement on Form S-4 (File No 333-138338). The Credit Agreement provides that each of the above defined terms include the pro forma effect of acquisitions and divestitures on a full year basis. This pro forma effect used
in connection with the financial debt covenant ratio calculations is not the same calculation we use to determine Adjusted EBITDA, which we disclose to investors in our earnings releases and which is discussed below.

Based upon current operations, we believe that our cash flows from operations, together with borrowings that are available under the
revolving credit facility portion of our senior secured credit facility, will be adequate to meet our anticipated requirements for working capital, capital expenditures, and scheduled principal and interest payments through the next 12 months. At
September 28, 2010, we had $58.1 million of borrowing capacity available under our revolving line of credit net of $16.9 million of outstanding letters of credit. We will consider additional sources of financing to fund our long-term growth if
necessary, including the remaining $60.0 million of term loan capacity available under our existing credit facility.

Non-GAAP measures

Adjusted EBITDA is a supplemental measure of our performance that is not required by or presented in
accordance with GAAP. We have included Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental disclosure because we believe that Adjusted EBITDA provides investors a helpful measure for comparing our operating performance with the performance of other companies that
have different financing and capital structures or tax rates. We have substantial interest expense relating to the financing of the 2006 acquisition of us and substantial depreciation and amortization expense relating to this transaction and to our
acquisitions of units in recent years. We believe that the elimination of these items, as well as taxes, pre-opening and other expenses and facility impairment charges give investors useful information to compare the performance of our core
operations over different periods. The following is a reconciliation of net income to Adjusted EBITDA(1)(in thousands).

|(1) | The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as consolidated net income plus interest, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, facility impairment charges

substitute for analysis of, the Companys financial information reported under generally accepted accounting principles. Adjusted EBITDA as defined above may not be similar to EBITDA measures of other companies.

Letters of Credit

As
of September 28, 2010, we had letters of credit of $16.9 million issued under our existing credit facility in support of self-insured risks.



|Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
|------- | ----------------------------------------------------------

We are exposed to various market risks. Market risk is the potential loss arising from adverse changes in market prices and rates. We do not enter into derivative or other financial instruments for
trading or speculative purposes.

Interest Rate Risk. Our primary market risk exposure is interest rate risk. All of
our borrowings under our senior secured credit facility bear interest at a floating rate. As of September 28, 2010, we had $227.4 million in funded floating rate debt outstanding under our senior secured credit facility. We have interest rate
swap agreements that provide for fixed rates as compared to the three-month LIBOR rate on the following notional amounts of floating rate debt at September 28, 2010:





|               |  |                             |       |  |               |  |       |               |  |               |  |

|               |  |                             |       |  |               |  |       |               |  |               |  | 
|June 6, 2006   |  | $                           | 20.0  |  |               |  | 5.39% |               |  | Dec. 31, 2010 | 
|Jan. 31, 2008  |  |                             | 50.0  |  |               |  | 3.16% |               |  | Jan. 31, 2011 | 
|April 7, 2008  |  |                             | 50.0  |  |               |  | 2.79% |               |  | April 7, 2011 | 
|Nov. 18, 2008  |  |                             | 30.0  |  |               |  | 2.81% |               |  | Nov. 18, 2011 | 
|               |  |                             |       |  |               |  |       |               |  |               | 
|               |  | $                           | 150.0 |  |               |  |       |               |  |               | 
|               |  |                             |       |  |               |  |       |               |  |               | 

After giving effect to these swaps, which leaves us with $77.4 million of floating rate
debt, a 100 basis point increase in this floating rate would increase annual interest expense by approximately $0.8 million.

Commodity Prices. Commodity prices such as cheese can vary. The price of this commodity can change throughout the year due to
changes in supply and demand. Cheese has historically represented approximately 30-35% of our cost of sales. We are a member of the UFPC, and participate in cheese hedging programs that are directed by the UFPC to help reduce the volatility of this
commodity from period-to-period. Based on information provided by the UFPC, the UFPC expects to hedge approximately 30% to 50% of the Pizza Hut systems anticipated cheese purchases through a combination of derivatives taken under the direction
of the UFPC.

The estimated increase in our food costs from a hypothetical 10% adverse change in the average cheese block
price per pound (approximately $0.15 for the 39 weeks ended September 28, 2010 and $0.12 per pound for 2009) would have been approximately $5.4 million and $3.5 million for the 39 weeks ended September 28, 2010 and September 29,
2009, respectively, without giving effect to the UFPC directed hedging programs.

Evaluation
of Disclosure Controls and Procedures.

As of the end of the period covered by this report, we carried out an evaluation,
under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures, as such term is defined in Rule 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended (Exchange Act). Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of such date to provide reasonable assurance that
the information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commissions rules and forms,
and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in internal control over financial reporting.There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting
that occurred during our third fiscal quarter of 2010 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION



|Item 1. | Legal Proceedings.
|------- | ------------------

On
May 12, 2009, a lawsuit against the Company, entitled Jeffrey Wass, et al. v. NPC International, Inc., Case No. 2:09-CV-2254-JWL-KGS, was filed in the United States District Court for the District of Kansas. A First Amended Complaint,
entitled Jeffrey Wass and Mark Smith, et al. v. NPC International, Inc., was filed on July 2, 2009. The Complaint was brought by Plaintiffs Wass and Smith individually and on behalf of similarly situated employees who work or previously worked
as delivery drivers for NPC. The First Amended Complaint alleged a collective action under the Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA) to recover unpaid wages and excessive deductions owed to plaintiffs and similarly situated workers employed by
NPC in 28 states, and as a class action under Colorado law on behalf of Plaintiff Smith and all other similarly situated workers employed by NPC in Colorado to recover unpaid minimum wages and excess payroll deductions and certain costs relating to
uniforms and special apparel. The First Amended Complaint alleged among other things that NPC deprived plaintiffs and other NPC delivery drivers of minimum wages by providing insufficient reimbursements for automobile and other job-related expenses
incurred for the purposes of delivering NPCs pizza and other food items.

On March 2, 2010, the Court entered an
Order granting NPCs motions for judgment on the pleadings as to all claims brought by plaintiffs in the First Amended Complaint, with the exception of a claim for the reimbursement of uniform costs under Colorado law. The Order provided that
the claims failed to state a claim under the FLSA and Colorado law and, therefore, would be dismissed with prejudice unless plaintiffs filed a Second Amended Complaint that cured the deficiencies in the First Amended Complaint. The Order also
operated to moot plaintiffs then-pending motion for conditional collective action certification.

Plaintiffs filed a
Second Amended Complaint on March 22, 2010, which alleged a collective action under the FLSA on behalf of plaintiffs and similarly situated workers employed by NPC in 28 states, and a class action under Rule 23 of the Federal Rules of Civil
Procedure on behalf of Plaintiff Smith and similarly situated workers employed in states in which the state minimum wage is higher than the federal minimum wage. The Second Amended Complaint contended that NPC deprived delivery drivers of minimum
wages by providing insufficient reimbursements for automobile expenses incurred for the purposes of delivering NPCs pizza and other food items. NPC filed a motion to dismiss the Second Amended Complaint on April 8, 2010.

On June 24, 2010, the Court granted NPCs motion to dismiss the Second Amended Complaint as to all claims filed by Plaintiff
Wass, all Plaintiffs who had opted in to the class and all putative class members. The only claims not dismissed were the individual claims of one remaining class representative, Mark Smith. The Courts Order did not grant Plaintiffs leave to
amend the Second Amended Complaint, but Plaintiffs filed a motion seeking leave to amend. NPC filed an opposition to the motion on July 27, 2010.

On September 1, 2010, the Court granted plaintiffs leave to file their Third Amended Complaint, which was filed on September 3, 2010, again asserting claims by Wass and all class members. NPC
filed a motion for summary judgment as to named plaintiff Wass claims on September 17, 2010. Wass filed his opposition on October 8, 2010. NPC replied on October 22, 2010. Because the motion is pending before the Court, NPC is
not able to predict the outcome of this suit or possible loss ranges, nor, its effect on NPCs operations or financial condition.

On September 30, 2010 the Court entered a routine scheduling order, setting January 21, 2011 as the deadline for plaintiffs to file a motion for conditional certification of a collective action
under FLSA. It also set deadlines for class discovery, but did not at that time set deadlines for Rule 23 certification, final discovery, dispositive motions, decertification, or trial. The Company believes the lawsuit is wholly without merit and
will defend itself from all claims vigorously.

Pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission, we have filed or incorporated by reference the documents referenced below as exhibits to this Form 10-Q. The documents
include agreements to which the Company is a party or has a beneficial interest. The agreements have been filed to provide investors with information regarding their respective terms. The agreements are not intended to provide any other factual
information about the Company or its business or operations. In particular, the assertions embodied in any representations, warranties and covenants contained in the agreements may be subject to qualifications with respect to knowledge and
materiality different from those applicable to investors and may be qualified by information in confidential disclosure schedules not included with the exhibits. These disclosure schedules may contain information that modifies, qualifies and creates
exceptions to the representations, warranties and covenants set forth in the agreements. Moreover, certain representations, warranties and covenants in the agreements may have been used for the purpose of allocating risk between the parties, rather
than establishing matters as facts. In addition, information concerning the subject matter of the representations, warranties and covenants may have changed after the date of the respective agreement, which subsequent information may or may not be
