Who can attend the meeting?

All shareholders as of the record date, or their duly appointed proxies, may attend the meeting, and each may be accompanied by one guest. Please also note that if you hold your shares in “street name” (that is, through a broker or other nominee), you will need to bring a copy of a brokerage statement reflecting your stock ownership as of the record date.

What constitutes a quorum?

The presence at the meeting, in person or by proxy, of the holders of common stock representing a majority of the combined voting power of the outstanding shares of stock on the record date will constitute a quorum, permitting the meeting to conduct its business.

What vote is required to approve each item?

For purposes of electing directors at the annual meeting, the nominees receiving the greatest numbers of votes of common stock shall be elected as directors. The affirmative vote of a majority of votes of common stock present, in person or by proxy at the annual meeting and voting together as a single class, is required for the approval of any other matter that may be submitted to a vote of our shareholders.

The inspector of election for the annual meeting shall determine the number of shares of common stock represented at the meeting, the existence of a quorum and the validity and effect of proxies, and shall count and tabulate ballots and votes and determine the results thereof. Proxies received but marked as abstentions and broker non-votes will be included in the calculation of the number of shares considered to be present at the meeting for purposes of determining a quorum but will not be counted as votes cast “for” or “against” the election of directors. On other matters that may be submitted for a vote, broker non-votes will not be considered in tallying votes cast, and abstentions will be treated as a vote “against.” If less than a majority of the combined voting power of the outstanding shares of common stock are represented at the annual meeting, a majority of the shares so represented may adjourn the annual meeting from time to time without further notice.

Based solely on our review of the copies of these forms received or representations from certain reporting persons that no Form 5 was required, we believe that all of our officers, directors, and greater than ten percent beneficial owners complied with all filing requirements applicable to them with respect to transactions during 2005.

What committees has the Board established?

The Board of Directors has established three committees: (1) the audit committee, (2) the compensation committee and (3) the nominating and corporate governance committee.

Audit Committee

The audit committee held 11 meetings in fiscal 2005. The audit committee selects the independent registered public accounting firm and reviews the independence of such firm, approves the scope of the annual audit activities of the independent registered public accounting firm, approves the audit fee payable to the independent registered public accounting firm and reviews audit results with the independent registered public accounting firm. The audit committee currently is comprised of H. Arthur Bellows, Jr., James J. Gaffney and Wilson B. Sexton, each of whom meets the independence criteria prescribed by applicable law and the rules of the SEC for audit committee membership and is an “independent director” as defined in Nasdaq Marketplace Rule 4200(a)(15).

The compensation committee held two meetings in fiscal 2005. The duties of the compensation committee are to provide a general review of our compensation and benefit plans to ensure that they meet our objectives. In addition, the compensation committee reviews the chief executive officer’s recommendations on compensation of our executive officers and makes recommendations for adopting and changing major compensation policies and practices. The compensation committee reports its recommendations to the full board of directors for approval and authorization. It also makes recommendations to the board with respect to the compensation of the chief executive officer and administers our stock plans. The compensation committee is comprised of three directors who are independent under Nasdaq listing standards, who are non-employee directors (as defined in Rule 16b-3 under the Securities Exchange Act) and who do not have “interlocking” or other relationships with us that would detract from their independence as committee members. At all times, at least two members of the committee shall be outside directors (as defined in Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code). The current members of the compensation committee are James J. Gaffney, Wilson B. Sexton and Peter M. Gotsch.

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee

The nominating and corporate governance committee held one meeting in fiscal 2005. The nominating and corporate governance committee is responsible for identifying and recommending potential candidates qualified to become board members and recommending directors for appointment to board committees. The nominating and corporate governance committee is currently comprised of James J. Gaffney, Wilson B. Sexton and Peter M. Gotsch, each of whom is independent under Nasdaq listing standards.

When identifying, evaluating and considering potential candidates for membership on our board, including those who might be recommended or nominated by shareholders, the nominating and corporate governance committee considers among other factors, relevant business and financial experience, integrity and willingness to devote the necessary time and energy. The nominating and corporate governance committee will consider nominees for our board of directors recommended by shareholders, using the

9

same criteria as for other candidates. Recommendations should be submitted in writing to David Grace, our secretary, at our principal executive offices. The recommendation should include the name and address of the shareholder making the recommendation and evidence of his or her ownership of our common stock, including the number of shares and period of ownership, the name and address of the director candidate, and his or her resume or listing of qualifications, and the candidate’s signed consent to serve as a director if elected and to be named in the Proxy Statement. To be considered, the recommendation must be received by the secretary not less than 90 days and not more than 120 days before the one-year anniversary date of our most recent annual meeting of shareholders. The nominating and corporate governance committee may consider advice and recommendations from others, including search firms as it deems appropriate.

AUDIT COMMITTEE MATTERS

Audit Committee’s Pre-Approval and Procedures

The audit committee is responsible for the appointment, compensation, retention and oversight of the work of Ernst & Young LLP, our independent registered public accounting firm. The independent registered public accounting firm reports directly to the audit committee. As part of their responsibility, the Committee established a policy requiring the pre-approval of all audit and permissible non-audit services performed by the registered public accounting firm. In pre-approving services, the audit committee considers whether such services are consistent with the SEC’s rules on auditor independence.

Prior to the engagement of the registered public accounting firm for an upcoming audit/non-audit service period, defined as a twelve-month timeframe, Ernst & Young LLP submits a detailed list of services expected to be rendered during that period as well as an estimate of the associated fees for each of the following four categories of services to the Audit Committee for approval.

Audit Services consist of services rendered by an external auditor for the audit of our annual consolidated financial statements (including tax services performed to fulfill the auditor’s responsibility under generally accepted auditing standards) and internal controls and reviews of financial statements included in Form 10-Qs, and includes services that generally only an external auditor can reasonably provide, such as comfort letters, statutory audits, attest services, consents and assistance with and review of documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Audit-Related Services consist of assurance and related services (e.g. due diligence) by an external auditor that are reasonably related to audit or review of financial statements, including employee benefit plan audits, due diligence related to mergers and acquisitions, and accounting consultations.

Tax Services consist of services not included in Audit Services above, rendered by an external auditor for tax compliance, tax consulting and tax planning.

Other Non-Audit Services are any other permissible work that is not an Audit, Audit-Related or Tax Service.

Circumstances may arise during the twelve-month period when it may become necessary to engage the independent auditor for additional services not contemplated in the original pre-approval. In those instances, the audit committee requires specific pre-approval before engaging the independent auditor. The chairman of the audit committee, acting pursuant to delegated authority, may pre-approve such services.

11

Audit and Non-Audit Fees

The table below summarizes the fees billed by our independent registered public accounting firm, Ernst & Young LLP, for the fiscal years ended September 24, 2005 and September 25, 2004.

Audit fees include fees for professional services rendered for the audit of our annual consolidated financial statements and, beginning in fiscal 2005, the audit of our internal controls and the reviews of the interim financial statements included in our Forms 10-Q. For 2005, the audit fees include $107,600 for services performed in connection with the filings of our Forms S-3 and S-8. For 2004, the audit fees include fees of $995,200 associated with Ernst & Young LLP’s work on our initial public offering and the related filings with the SEC.

There were no audit-related fees for fiscal 2005 and 2004.

Tax fees represent professional services related to tax compliance and consulting.

The audit committee has considered the compatibility of the provision of services covered by the preceding paragraph with the maintenance of the principal accountant’s independence from the Company and has determined that the provision of such services is not incompatible with the maintenance of such independence.

The audit committee annually reviews the performance of the independent registered public accounting firm and the fees charged for their services.

Report of the Audit Committee

The role of the audit committee is to assist the board of directors in its oversight of the integrity of the Company’s financial reporting process and compliance with legal and regulatory requirements. The audit committee reviews the Company’s financial reporting process on behalf of the Company’s board of directors. Management has the primary responsibility for the financial statements and the reporting process, including the system of internal controls.

In this context, the audit committee has met and held discussions with management and the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm. The audit committee has reviewed and discussed the audited financial statements with management and the independent registered public accounting firm. The audit committee discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm matters required to be discussed by Statement on Auditing Standards No. 61, Communication with Audit Committees. In addition, the audit committee has discussed with the independent registered public accounting firm the auditor’s independence from the Company and management, including matters in the written disclosures provided by the independent registered public accounting firm to the audit committee as required by the Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1, Independence Discussions with Audit Committees.

12

Management and the independent registered public accounting firm recently completed their first assessment of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as required by Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002.

What other compensation arrangements does the Company have with its executive officers?

Employment Agreement

We entered into an employment agreement with Robert Buck, our President and CEO, with a term that extends through November 19, 2006. It provided for a base salary of $430,000 for fiscal year 2004 and $445,000 for fiscal year 2005. After fiscal year 2005, our board reviews his base salary annually and may increase (but not decrease) it. Mr. Buck’s base salary for 2006 was set by the board at $500,000. Mr. Buck’s employment agreement also entitles him to an annual bonus of up to 100% of base salary, depending on whether we reach the performance target that the board sets near the beginning of each fiscal year. The performance target for 2006 is based on EBITDA. The bonus varies from 0% of base salary (if we achieve 85% or less of the target for that fiscal year) to 100% of base salary (if we achieve 115% or more of the target for that year). In between 85% of the target and 115% of the target, the bonus varies on a straight line basis. The employment agreement also provided that if Mr. Buck relocated his residence at our request before September 30, 2005, we would reimburse him for all expenses incurred for the relocation. Mr. Buck relocated to the Reston, Virginia area where we now have a corporate office. For the period before he relocated his residence, we agreed to rent an apartment for his use in the Boston area and reimburse him for travel expenses for up to two round trips per month for him and his wife between their primary residence and the Boston area. Mr. Buck also receives a $1,000 per month car allowance that is included in his reported annual salary amount in the compensation table above. Under his employment agreement, Mr. Buck is entitled to severance equal to 12 months base salary if we terminate his employment without cause, as that term is defined in his employment agreement, or if we are not willing to renew his employment agreement at the end of the term. The employment agreement limits Mr. Buck’s ability to compete with us for 18 months after his employment ends.

Were there any issues regarding compensation committee interlocks and insider participation during 2005?

The Compensation Committee consists of James Gaffney, Peter Gotsch and Wilson Sexton. Prior to our initial public offering, Mr. Gotsch was a non-employee officer of the Company. There are no Compensation Committee interlocks.

Report of the Compensation Committee on Compensation of Executive Officers of the Company

The Company’s executive compensation programs are based on three components: base salary, annual incentives and long-term compensation; each is intended as an important piece of the overall compensation philosophy.

Base salary is used to attract and retain the Company’s key executives and is calculated using comparisons with the Company’s industry competitors and/or companies of similar market value. Salaries are reviewed by the Compensation Committee on an annual basis.

Annual incentives are a significant component of executive compensation, reflecting the Company’s belief that management’s contribution to long-term shareholder returns (via increasing stock prices) comes from maximizing earnings and the potential of the Company. The Company’s Chief Executive Officer has an annual incentive opportunity based upon the Company’s meeting or exceeding certain established performance targets. In 2005, these performance targets were based on budgeted EBITDA. By its reliance on this incentive compensation system, the Company links a substantial portion of the Chief Executive Officer’s annual pay directly to profitability. As a result of this approach, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer’s total compensation is likely to vary from year to year, perhaps more significantly than the pay of

16

executives of many of the Company’s competitors. Certain other executive officers and employees have their pay levels set primarily in relation to comparisons to similar executives of competitors, with additional annual incentives based on the attainment of specific objectives supporting the overall goals of the Company.

Mr. Buck and other key executives of the Company received a significant portion of their fiscal 2005 total compensation through incentive and other forms of long-term compensation. In order to promote an increase in net worth of the Company, maximize the return to shareholders and effectively motivate senior management, the executive compensation philosophy of the Company has been to link compensation with Company performance. Therefore, Mr. Buck received 37% of his aggregate cash compensation during fiscal 2005 from incentives. The committee believes that this represents evidence of the strong and explicit link between executive compensation and the creation of long-term shareholder value.

In terms of long-term compensation, management incentives generally are provided to the Company’s executives through grants of stock options to retain and motivate executives to improve the Company’s stock value. Since the Company’s initial public offering, stock options have been granted at an exercise price equal to the closing price of the Company’s common stock as reported by Nasdaq. Accordingly, grants of stock options will produce value only if there are increases in the underlying stock price. Stock option grants are made by the compensation committee. The Company provides no defined benefit pension plan or supplemental executive retirement plan but does provide a 401(k) plan, with profit-sharing contributions when feasible, for all of its employees employed for at least one year.

Recommendations with regard to compensation of the Company’s executives are made to the board by the members of the compensation committee, which holds meetings at least once a year and more often when the need arises. Each member of the compensation committee is a non-employee director . The executive compensation practices of the Company are constantly re-evaluated to ensure their relevance, their support of the strategic goals of the Company and their contribution to the creation of long-term shareholder value.

Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, generally disallows a public company’s deduction for compensation to a Named Executive Officer in excess of $1 million per year unless the compensation meets the definition of “performance-based compensation.” The committee does not anticipate that this limit will affect the deductibility of compensation paid by the company in 2005.

The Report of the Compensation Committee and the Report of the Audit Committee included in this proxy statement do not constitute soliciting material and should not be deemed filed or incorporated by reference into any of our other filings under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, except to the extent we specifically incorporate the reports by reference in that filing.
