Pizza Inn, Inc. today announced that it believes it has regained compliance with the minimum shareholders' equity requirement of $2,500,000 set forth in Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4310(c)(2)(B). On November 9, 2006, the Company received a staff deficiency letter from the Nasdaq Stock Market regarding the Company's failure to comply with Rule 4310(c)(2)(B), which requires listed companies to maintain certain levels of shareholders' equity, market value, or net income. Pizza Inn believes it was able to regain compliance with the listing standards as a result of the Company's financial results during its fiscal second quarter ended December 24, 2006, which benefited from a gain in excess of $500,000 realized on the previously announced sale of the Company's headquarters office building and distribution facility. Furthermore, the Company believes that its financial performance in future periods will allow it to maintain compliance with the Nasdaq shareholders' equity requirement. Nasdaq will continue to monitor the Company's ongoing compliance with the shareholders' equity requirement and, if the Company's Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended December 24, 2006 does not evidence such compliance, then the Company may be subject to delisting.

In a separate matter, on January 8, 2007, Pizza Inn received a staff deficiency letter from Nasdaq indicating that the Company fails to comply with the audit committee composition requirements set forth in Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4350(d)(2)(A) due to one vacancy on the audit committee of the Board of Directors of Pizza Inn. In the letter, Nasdaq notified Pizza Inn that Nasdaq will provide the Company until April 16, 2007 to regain compliance. Pizza Inn is currently considering its alternatives for regaining compliance with the Nasdaq audit committee composition requirements.
