Quarterly, restaurant teams are measured against benchmarks for identified Key Performance Indicators. Based on the restaurant’s overall results, teams are rewarded relative to their performance. Quarterly, restaurant teams also receive additional bonus compensation for exceeding budgeted profit levels.

Based on sales and profit the company will determine how much, if any, discretionary contribution will be made to the 401(k) plan each year.
