(“SYGMA”) and The Institutional Jobbers Company (“IJ”) to provide warehousing and delivery of food and restaurant supplies to the Company’s system of franchised and Company-operated Pizza Inn® restaurants. Pursuant to the distribution service agreements, under which services will begin on November 1, 2006, (i) SYGMA, a subsidiary of SYSCO Corporation, will distribute to Pizza Inn restaurants in Arkansas, Florida, Missouri, New Mexico, Oklahoma, South Dakota and Texas, and (ii) IJ will distribute to Pizza Inn restaurants in Alabama, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee and Virginia.
On August 28, 2006, SYGMA and the Company also entered into a 35-month lease agreement at market rates for SYGMA’s lease of the Company’s 102,000 square foot warehouse and distribution facility in The Colony, Texas commencing on November 1, 2006. SYGMA and the Company have also entered into a one-month access agreement providing SYGMA with access to the facility commencing on October 1, 2006. During the term of the lease SYGMA will provide its services for the Company from that facility. In connection with its use of the facility, SYGMA has agreed to purchase or assume leases for certain of the Company’s assets used in connection with the operation of the facility and the performance of distribution services, including certain refrigerated trailers currently operating as a part of the distribution fleet of the Company’s operating division, Norco Restaurant Services Company (“Norco”). IJ has indicated that it may elect to purchase or assume leases for certain other refrigerated trailers.
Until November 1, 2006, the Company expects to continue to perform distribution services to its restaurants through Norco from The Colony, Texas warehouse. Beginning on November 1, 2006, Norco is expected to continue to provide services for the Company’s restaurants by performing certain purchasing, quality assurance, research and development, order acceptance and management, inventory control, customer service, logistics support, and billing functions.
