Fees for audit services consisted of the audit of our annual financial statements and reports on internal controls required by the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, reviews of our quarterly financial statements and fees related to a review of our Uniform Franchise Offering Circular. Fees for audit-related services billed in 2006 related to procedures performed in connection with our acquisition of 13 franchised restaurants. 39 All other fees billed in 2006 and 2005 consisted of license fees related to Deloitte & Touches proprietary web-based research database. With respect to non-audit services provided from time to time, of which none were provided in 2006, the audit committee considers whether Deloittes provision of other non-audit services to the Company is compatible with maintaining Deloittes independence. The audit committee discussed these services with the independent auditor and Company management to determine that the services are permitted under the rules and regulations concerning auditor independence promulgated by the SEC to implement the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as well as the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants.
