Large Hardee's Franchise Selects Par's Total Integrated Solution For Their Restaurants

* Paradigm Investment Group, LLC will install PAR hardware, software, and utilize PAR's complete service offerings for their stores * PAR will also integrate existing in-store self-service kiosks into new point-of-sale technology solution

(Wednesday, April 16, 2008) - ParTech, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of PAR Technology Corporation (NYSE: PTC), and a leading provider of technology solutions to the hospitality and retail industries, today announced that Paradigm Investment Group, LLC has selected PAR as their next generation technology provider for their restaurants. Paradigm will install PAR's integrated solution in all of their restaurants.

Paradigm Investment Group, LLC is one of the largest franchise operators of Hardee's quick service restaurants with nearly 100 stores in 4 states.

Paradigm Investment Group has selected PAR's InFusion™ software for restaurant management. InFusion offers fast and cost-effective restaurant-to-enterprise Point-of-Sale (POS) solutions for hospitality operations of all sizes. The software suite is a true multi-concept, multi-service POS software system, functioning equally well in quick-service, full-service or even in delivery operations. The hardware platform emphasizes a fully-open architecture design. Paradigm has selected PAR's ViGo™ terminal with its integrated 8.4" customer display. The display allows Paradigm to deliver Point of Purchase (POP) Marketing. When the terminal is not in use, the 8.4" touchscreen can display POP messaging: when it is in use, it acts as an order confirmation display. PAR's hardware platform features an ergonomic design and has one of the most reliable operating performance standards in the industry. ViGo is designed for high-level performance in the harshest of restaurant environments.

Paradigm has also integrated an innovative self-service solution to enhance the customer experience, increase the average check and improve speed of service. Completing the solution is PAR's dedicated service offering that includes professional implementation, 24x7 Call Center and on-site field support.

"We set out to find the best integrated point-of-sale solution available for the restaurant industry -- one that would allow us to enhance our operations management, improve service to our customers, and present a single view of the entire customer relationship at our restaurants," said Greg May, Chief Technology Officer at Paradigm Investment Group. "Not only are PAR's software and hardware products among the industry's best, featuring the latest technology innovations, but we have also been able to benefit by working with the experienced individuals at PAR with their vast experience in restaurant technology/in-store requirements and have played an integral role in helping us meet our needs."

"The selection of PAR by Paradigm represents yet another endorsement of PAR's ability to deliver integrated technology to one of the elite restaurant organizations in the industry," commented Greg Cortese, CEO & President of ParTech, Inc. "A mark of distinction for PAR is that we provide the knowledge acquired of nearly 30 years of restaurant technology experience, as well as powerful business solutions that allow our clients to operate their businesses more efficiently and effectively. In turn, customer service is considerably enhanced, and customer retention is improved. The result is a technology solution designed to give organizations like Paradigm enhanced customer service, improved business practices and provide access to data at the point of sale."
