PROXY STATEMENT

ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS

MAY 10, 2006

SOLICITATION, VOTING AND REVOCABILITY OF PROXIES

This Proxy Statement and the accompanying Notice of Annual Meeting and proxy card are being furnished, on or about April 6, 2006, to the shareholders of Answerthink, Inc. (the “Company”), in connection with the solicitation of proxies by the Board of Directors of the Company to be voted at the 2006 Annual Meeting of Shareholders of the Company to be held on Wednesday, May 10, 2006 at 11:00 a.m. (local time) at the JW Marriott Hotel Miami, 1109 Brickell Avenue, Miami, Florida, and any postponement or adjournment thereof.

If the enclosed form of proxy is properly executed and returned to the Company in time to be voted at the annual meeting, the shares represented thereby will be voted in accordance with the instructions thereon.

Executed but unmarked proxies will be voted

• “FOR” Proposal 1 to elect the Board of Directors’ nominees for directors;

• “FOR” Proposal 2 to approve an amendment to the Company’s 1998 Stock Option and Incentive   Plan; and

• “FOR” Proposal 3 to re-approve the Company’s 1998 Stock Option and Incentive Plan   performance goals for purposes of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code.

If any other matters are properly brought before the annual meeting, proxies will be voted in the discretion of the proxy holders. The Company is not aware of any such matters that are proposed to be presented at the annual meeting.

Instead of submitting a signed proxy card, shareholders may submit their proxies by telephone or through the Internet as instructed on the proxy card. Telephone and Internet proxies must be used in conjunction with, and will be subject to, the information and terms contained on the proxy card. These procedures may not be available to shareholders that hold their shares through a broker, nominee, fiduciary or other custodian. If your shares are held in this manner, please check your proxy card or contact your broker, nominee, fiduciary or other custodian to determine whether you will be able to vote by telephone or through the Internet.

The cost of soliciting proxies in the form enclosed herewith will be borne entirely by the Company. In addition to the solicitation of proxies by mail, proxies may be solicited by directors, officers and regular employees of the Company, without extra remuneration, by personal interviews, telephone or otherwise. The Company will request persons, firms and corporations holding shares in their name or in the names of their nominees, which are beneficially owned by others, to send proxy materials to and obtain proxies from the beneficial owners and will reimburse the holders for their reasonable expenses in doing so.

The securities that may be voted at the annual meeting consist of shares of the Company’s common stock. Each outstanding share of common stock entitles its owner to one vote on each matter as to which a vote is taken at the annual meeting. The close of business on March 15, 2006 has been fixed by the Board of Directors as the record date for determination of shareholders entitled to vote at the annual meeting. On the record date, 45,230,632 shares of common stock were issued and outstanding and entitled to vote. The presence, in person or by proxy, of at least a majority of the shares of common stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote on the

1

record date is necessary to constitute a quorum at the annual meeting. Shares can be voted only if the shareholder is present in person or by proxy. Whether or not you plan to attend in person, you are encouraged to sign and return the enclosed proxy card or vote by telephone or through the Internet as instructed on the proxy card.

Assuming the presence of a quorum at the annual meeting, a plurality of the votes cast in person or represented by proxy at the annual meeting is required for election of the directors, and a majority of the votes present in person or represented by proxy and entitled to vote is required to approve the amendment to the Company’s 1998 Stock Option and Incentive Plan and to re-approve the Company’s 1998 Stock Option and Incentive Plan performance goals for purposes of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code. Unless otherwise required by law, the Company’s current certificate of incorporation or the Company’s bylaws, any other matter put to a shareholder vote will be decided by the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes present in person or represented by proxy at the annual meeting and entitled to vote on the matter.

Abstentions and broker non-votes will be treated as shares that are present, in person or by proxy, and entitled to vote for purposes of determining the presence of a quorum at the annual meeting. For example, a “broker non-vote” occurs when a nominee holding shares for a beneficial owner votes on one proposal, but does not vote on another proposal because the nominee does not have discretionary voting power and has not received instructions from the beneficial owner. Abstentions and broker non-votes will not have any effect on the approval of Proposal 1. Because abstentions will be counted for purposes of determining the shares present or represented at the annual meeting and entitled to vote, abstentions will have the same effect as a vote “against” Proposals 2 and 3. Broker non-votes are not counted for any purpose in determining whether a matter has been approved, so they will not have any effect on the approval of Proposals 2 and 3.

The presence of a shareholder at the annual meeting will not automatically revoke such shareholder’s proxy. Shareholders may, however, revoke a proxy at any time prior to its exercise by filing with the Secretary of the Company a written notice of revocation, by delivering to the Company a duly executed proxy bearing a later date or by attending the annual meeting and voting in person. If you submitted your proxy by telephone or through the Internet, you may also revoke it by submitting a new proxy using the same procedures at a later date. The telephone and Internet voting facilities for shareholders of record will close at 1:00 a.m. Central Time on the day of the meeting.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS THAT SHAREHOLDERS VOTE FOR

APPROVAL OF THE PROPOSALS SET FORTH IN THIS PROXY STATEMENT.

PROPOSAL 1

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

General

The Company’s certificate of incorporation provides that the Board of Directors shall consist of not fewer than five directors nor more than fifteen directors. The Company’s bylaws provide that the number of directors, within such limits, shall be determined by resolution of the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors currently is composed of seven directors. After our Annual Meeting of Shareholders, the Board of Directors will be composed of six directors. Allan R. Frank, our President, is not seeking re-election to the Board and a replacement has not been nominated for election. The Board of Directors is divided into three classes, as equal in number as possible. Typically, one class is elected each year for a term of three years. This year, two directors will be elected for a term of three years. One director will be elected for a term of two years.

Three directors will be elected at the annual meeting. The Board of Directors has nominated David N. Dungan, Richard N. Hamlin and John R. Harris for the positions. If elected, Messrs. Dungan and Hamlin each will serve for a three-year term expiring at the annual meeting in 2009. Mr. Harris replaced Jeffrey Keisling who resigned on January 10, 2006. If elected, Mr. Harris will serve a two-year term expiring at the annual meeting in 2008 which is date on which Mr. Keisling’s term would have expired. You can find more information about Messrs. Dungan, Hamlin and Harris below.

Unless otherwise instructed on the proxy, it is the intention of the persons named in the proxy to vote the shares represented by each properly executed proxy for the election as directors of the persons named below as nominees. The Board of Directors believes that all such nominees will stand for election and will serve if elected. However, if any of the persons nominated by the Board of Directors fails to stand for election or is unable to accept election, proxies will be voted by the proxy holders for the election of such other person or persons as the Board of Directors may recommend. Directors are elected by a plurality of the votes cast at the annual meeting.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR” THE ELECTION OF

MESSRS. DUNGAN, HAMLIN AND HARRIS AS DIRECTORS.

Corporate Governance and Other Matters

After our Annual Meeting of Shareholders, the Board of Directors will consist of six members, a majority of which are considered “independent directors” under the current listing standards of the Nasdaq Stock Market. Our independent directors are Richard N. Hamlin, John R. Harris, Edwin A. Huston and Alan T.G. Wix. The Board of Directors currently has three committees, the Audit Committee, the Compensation Committee and the Nominating Committee.

The Compensation Committee is responsible for determining the compensation of the Company’s executive officers and approving compensation and human resource programs for the Company. The current members of the Compensation Committee are Messrs. Huston (Chairman), Hamlin, Harris and Wix. For further information on the Compensation Committee, please refer to the “Compensation Committee Report on Executive Compensation” on page 12 of this Proxy Statement.

The Nominating Committee is responsible for identifying individuals qualified to become members of the Board of Directors and recommending to our Board of Directors candidates for election or re-election to the Board of Directors. The current members of the Nominating Committee are Messrs. Wix (Chairman), Hamlin, Harris and Huston. The Nominating Committee is governed by a written charter, which can be found at our website at http://www.answerthink.com/06_investor/02_governance.html.

The Company does not have a formal policy with regard to the consideration of director candidates recommended by security holders. However, the process for the submission of potential candidates for election to the Board by our shareholders is set forth in detail below.

The Nominating Committee selects and must approve by at least a majority vote all candidates to stand for election as directors. Pursuant to the Company’s bylaws, other candidates may also be nominated by any shareholder, provided each such other nomination is submitted in writing and received by the Secretary of the Company at the principal executive offices of the Company not less than 60 days nor more than 90 days prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting; provided, however, that in the event that the date of the annual meeting is advanced by more than 30 days or delayed by more than 60 days from such anniversary date, the shareholder must so deliver the notice not earlier than the 90th day prior to such annual meeting and not later than the close of business on the later of the 60th day prior to such annual meeting or the tenth day following the day on which public announcement of the date of such meeting is first made. In the event that the number of directors to be elected to the board is increased and there is no public announcement by the Company naming all of the nominees for director or specifying the size of the increased board at least 70 days prior to the first anniversary of the preceding annual meeting, then a shareholder wishing to nominate a director for the new position must deliver the notice not later than the close of business on the tenth day following the day on which such public announcement is first made. For a discussion of the requirements for including information with respect to a shareholder’s nominee in the Company’s proxy statement, see “Shareholder Proposals for the Annual Meeting in 2007” on page 28 in this Proxy Statement.

5

The shareholder’s notice referred to in the preceding paragraph must set forth: (i) as to each person whom the shareholder proposes to nominate for election as a director, all information relating to such person that is required to be disclosed in solicitations of proxies for election of directors pursuant to Section 14(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the rules and regulations thereunder (together with such person’s written consent to being named in the proxy statement as a nominee and to serving as a director if elected); and (ii) as to the shareholder giving the notice and the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the nomination is made, the name and address of the shareholder, as it appears on the Company’s books, and of such beneficial owner, the class and number of shares of the Company that are owned of record and beneficially by such shareholder and beneficial owner, respectively, and a representation that the shareholder intends to appear in person or by proxy at the annual meeting to bring such business before the meeting.

The Nominating Committee has not established minimum qualifications for director nominees nor has it established a description of specific skills that the directors feel are necessary for the Company’s directors to possess. However, when evaluating candidates for nomination, the Nominating Committee considers personal qualifications such as intelligence, integrity and strength of character as well as experience qualifications including the role, length of service and relevant experience. These qualities would be considered as they relate to any candidate, whether suggested by management or by one or more of the Company’s shareholders.

The Audit Committee reviews, acts on, and reports to the Board of Directors with respect to various auditing and accounting matters. The Audit Committee is directly responsible for the appointment, compensation, evaluation, retention and oversight of the Company’s independent auditors. The primary functions of the Audit Committee are to assist the Board of Directors in its responsibility for oversight of (a) the quality and integrity of the Company’s financial statements and its financial reporting and disclosure practices, (b) the Company’s systems of internal controls regarding finance and accounting compliance, (c) the independence and performance of the Company’s independent auditors, and (d) the Company’s ethical compliance programs. The Audit Committee performs all functions required of audit committees of public companies under applicable laws, rules and regulations and the requirements of the Nasdaq Stock Market.

The current members of the Audit Committee are Messrs. Hamlin (Chairman), Harris, Huston and Wix. Rules adopted by the Nasdaq Stock Market and the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) impose strict independence requirements for all members of the audit committee. In addition to meeting the Nasdaq’s tests for director independence, directors on audit committees must meet two basic criteria set forth in the SEC’s rules. First, audit committee members are barred from accepting, directly or indirectly, any consulting, advisory or other compensatory fee from the issuer or an affiliate of the issuer, other than in the member’s capacity as a member of the board of directors and any board committee. The second basic criterion for determining independence provides that a member of an audit committee may not be an affiliated person of the issuer or any subsidiary of the issuer apart from his or her capacity as a member of the board and any board committee. Each member of the Audit Committee meets these independence requirements, in addition to the independence criteria established by the Nasdaq Stock Market. The Board has determined that Mr. Hamlin and Mr. Huston are both audit committee financial experts, as that term is defined under SEC rules.

The Audit Committee is governed by a written charter approved by the Board of Directors. A copy of the charter, which was adopted and became effective on March 26, 2003, is attached to this Proxy Statement as Appendix A and can be found at our website at http://www.answerthink.com/06_investor/02_governance.html. For further information on the Audit Committee, please refer to the “Report of the Audit Committee” on page 16 in this Proxy Statement.

During the fiscal year ended December 30, 2005, the Board of Directors held seven meetings, the Compensation Committee held six meetings, the Nominating Committee held one meeting and the Audit Committee held 12 meetings. During that same time period, no director attended fewer than 75% of the total number of all meetings of the Board of Directors and any committee on which he served. Our independent directors regularly meet as a group in executive session outside of the presence of management.

6

Our shareholders may communicate with our Board members via written correspondence mailed to the individual addresses found in the Beneficial Ownership of Common Stock table on page 27 of this Proxy Statement.

As is the case with all regularly scheduled meetings of the Board of Directors and its Committees, all of the Company’s directors are expected to attend our annual meetings of shareholders in person. All of the Company’s directors attended the 2005 Annual Meeting of Shareholders.

The Company has adopted a Code of Conduct and Ethics that is applicable to all directors, officers and employees of the Company. It complies with the requirements of Section 406(c) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. More importantly, it reflects the Company’s policy of dealing with all persons, including its customers, employees, investors, regulators and vendors, with honesty and integrity. A copy of the Company’s Code of Conduct and Ethics can be found on our website at http://www.answerthink.com/06_investor/02_governance.html.

Director Compensation

Directors who are officers or employees of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company receive no additional compensation for serving on the Board of Directors or any of its committees. Directors who are not officers or employees of the Company (“Outside Directors”) receive, upon initial election to the Board, an award of 7,000 restricted stock units subject to an aggregate value limit of $35,000 which is based on the fair market value of our Common Stock on the date of grant. Outside Directors also receive annual restricted stock unit grants. An Outside Director who serves as a committee chairman receives an award of 3,500 restricted stock units each year and all other Outside Directors receive an award of 2,500 restricted stock units each year. Annual grants are also subject to an aggregate value limit of $20,000 and $15,000 for Committee Chairmen and non-Committee Chairmen, respectively. All restricted stock units granted under this program vest in three equal annual installments beginning on the first anniversary of the grant. The Board reserves the right to make additional stock option or restricted stock unit grants to directors who are not officers of the Company on a discretionary basis during any fiscal year. Outside Directors receive an annual cash retainer of $5,000. Outside Directors also receive a cash fee of $4,000 for each regularly scheduled Board meeting attended in person and a cash fee of $1,500 for each regularly scheduled Board meeting attended by telephone. Committee members also receive a cash fee of $1,000 for each regularly scheduled committee meeting attended, whether in person or otherwise. Both Board and Committee members also receive a cash fee of $750 for each special meeting attended, whether in person or otherwise. All directors are reimbursed for travel expenses incurred in connection with attending board and committee meetings.

Answerthink, Inc. 1998 Stock Option and Incentive Plan Information

The following table contains information as of December 30, 2005 relating solely to the Answerthink, Inc. 1998 Stock Option and Incentive Plan. This Plan has been approved by our shareholders.

The sublimit is a part of the total remaining authorization under the Plan and is not in addition to the total remaining authorization. In Proposal 2 beginning on page 19 of this Proxy Statement the Company and the Board of Directors are seeking shareholder approval for an amendment to the Plan to raise the sublimit for restricted stock and restricted stock issuances by an additional 1,5000,000 shares. If approved, this amendment would not increase the total number of shares authorized under the Plan. This amount would remain 20,000,000.

Compensation Committee Interlocks

The Compensation Committee consists of Messrs. Huston (Chairman), Hamlin, Harris and Wix. No current or former member of the Compensation Committee is, or has ever been, an officer or employee of the Company. No current or former member of the Compensation Committee serves as a member of the Board of Directors or compensation committee of any entity that has one or more executive officers serving as a member of the Board of Directors or the Compensation Committee.

Compensation Committee Report on Executive Compensation

The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors has prepared the following report on the Company’s policies with respect to the compensation of executive officers for the fiscal year ended December 30, 2005. This report, as well as the Shareholder Return Performance Presentation on page 15, are not soliciting materials, are not deemed filed with the SEC and are not incorporated by reference in any filing of the Company under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, whether made before or after the date of this Proxy Statement and irrespective of any general incorporation language in any such filing.

The Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors consists of Messrs. Huston (Chairman), Hamlin, Harris and Wix. The Compensation Committee is responsible for approving all of the policies under which compensation is paid or awarded to the Company’s executive officers and evaluates and recommends compensation and human resource programs for the Company. The Compensation Committee endeavors to meet no less than four times per year to ensure there is independent review and approval of strategic management decisions affecting compensation. This includes the review of salary, bonus, restricted stock and restricted stock unit issuances, stock option issuances, employee benefit and welfare programs and human resource policies that enable the Company and its Human Resources Department to continue to attract, retain and motivate the highest level of talent available.

The Compensation Committee has adopted a compensation program that addresses both short-term and long-term business objectives. By contemplating both long and short-term business objectives, management must focus on the growth and current profitability of the Company. The long-term objectives require management to increase the strength of the Company by providing more customer value through the building of comprehensive service offerings and attracting and developing the right employee base that will position the Company for future opportunities. The short-term objectives require management to maintain the Company’s competitive position in a deliberate, thoughtful way that minimizes expenses and maximizes profitability, which leads to increased shareholder value. The Board and its Compensation Committee are focused on operating performance, earnings growth and share price appreciation. This is reflected throughout our executive compensation programs. The Board and its Compensation Committee are also dedicated to providing programs for our delivery associates that reward them for delivering superior client service. This is also reflected in our programs as well.

The Company has four primary compensation plans: an Executive Compensation Plan for our executive and senior leadership teams, a Senior Director/Practice Leader Plan for the leaders of our service offerings, an Enterprise Incentive Plan for senior practice members and functional leaders and a Project Bonus Plan for our billable associates.

12

The Company’s Executive Compensation Plan applies to our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer. This program is designed to commit our executive officers to the fulfillment of exceptional operating results and provides significant incentive opportunities tied to the attainment of specific financial performance goals. It is the result of research performed on behalf of our Compensation Committee by a human resources consulting firm that considered companies in our industry with similar scale. Compensation models employed by privately held peers were also considered in the design of the program. The program includes base salaries which we believe are at market competitive levels for companies of similar size within our industry. Cash and equity bonuses are tied to the achievement of pro-forma earnings per share targets based on a Board approved operating plan. If Company performance falls short of the Board of Directors’ goals for business growth, then the bonus compensation paid in connection with this program is reduced or eliminated. Further, if shareholder realized gains measured in share price appreciation does not follow the operating results of the Company, equity awards can be reduced through the application of dilution caps which are determined by our stock price. More information regarding the Company’s performance-based compensation programs can be found in Proposal 2 beginning on page 19 of this Proxy Statement.

Our Senior Director/Practice Leader Plan also includes market competitive salaries and provides for cash and equity bonuses based on targets established by our Chief Operating Officer for sales, revenue managed, and practice contribution margin by individual practice or geography.

Practice Leaders, functional department leaders and other associates that have not been assigned specific annual plans are eligible to participate in our Enterprise Incentive Plan. Enterprise Incentive Plan participants are eligible for quarterly bonuses based on significant achievement across the following metrics: practice management, sales, client relations, and strategic contribution. Delivery associates that are otherwise eligible for the Project Bonus (which is described below) are recognized from time to time for significant quarterly contributions from the Enterprise Incentive Plan.

The Project Bonus Plan is designed to align employee compensation with quality service delivery, knowledge capital, contribution, achievement of planned project and operating performance goals. The Plan assesses project team performance across three dimensions:

Project Realization (40%)

Client Satisfaction (40%)

Client Service Cycle Compliance (20%)

The Project Bonus is intended to reward superior project team performance, as well as superior individual contribution. The size of the Project Bonus pool is based on project team performance and the level of the Company’s profitability. Project team performance is evaluated based on project scores for the weighted components seen above. Individual project bonus allocations are determined by the project director and are based on individual member contribution.

Policies Regarding Compensation of Executive Officers

On an annual basis, the Compensation Committee reviews and approves the Executive Compensation Plan which includes base salary and performance-based cash, stock option or restricted stock unit bonus award programs and considers adjustments based on individual performance and Company results. Performance-based cash and equity bonuses may be awarded upon the achievement of specific annual pro-forma earnings per share targets based on an operating plan approved by the Board of Directors. Base salaries are targeted at competitive market levels based on each executive’s experience and role in the organization. The Compensation Committee reviewed and approved base salaries and restricted stock unit awards for the Company’s executive officers for fiscal year 2006 at its meeting held on February 17, 2006 and approved a program for our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer that would pay annual cash and equity bonuses related to 2006 performance subject to the achievement of a Board approved operating plan.

Chief Executive Officer Compensation

Mr. Fernandez is in his ninth year as Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer, titles that he has held since the Company’s inception. Mr. Fernandez continues to demonstrate the ability to position the Company to take full advantage of its unique intellectual capital and market opportunities. Mr. Fernandez was awarded cash bonuses totaling $250,000 and a restricted stock units award of 158,824 restricted stock units based on the Company’s 2005 performance pursuant to the incentive compensation program established for 2005 by the Compensation Committee. Mr. Fernandez’ 2005 salary was $750,000.

Compensation Deductibility Policy

Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code limits tax deductions for compensation paid to the Company’s chief executive officer and four other most highly compensated executive officers as of the end of the taxable year to $1 million. There are several exemptions to Section 162(m), including one for qualified “performance-based compensation.” The Compensation Committee designed the performance-based cash and equity awards for our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer to qualify for the “performance-based compensation” exception to Section 162(m) for 2006. To be qualified, performance-based compensation must meet various requirements, including shareholder approval. The Compensation Committee believes that tax deductibility is an important consideration in determining compensation for the Company’s executive officers, however, it retains the flexibility to pay compensation to senior executives based on other considerations.

Respectfully submitted,

Compensation Committee

Report of the Audit Committee

The members of the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors currently consists of Messrs. Hamlin (Chairman), Harris, Huston, and Wix. The Audit Committee is composed of “independent” directors as defined in standards promulgated by the SEC and the National Association of Securities Dealers. The Board of Directors determined that Mr. Hamlin and Mr. Huston, both independent directors, are audit committee financial experts under the SEC rules. The Audit Committee is governed by a written charter approved by the Board of Directors. A copy of the charter, which was adopted and became effective on March 26, 2003, is attached to this Proxy Statement as Appendix A and can be found at our website at http://www.answerthink.com/06_investor/02_governance.html. All members of the Audit Committee share equally the responsibility for the performance of the functions set forth below.

On August 26, 2005, the Company dismissed its current independent registered public accounting firm, PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (“PwC”), and on August 31, 2005, the Company engaged BDO Seidman, LLP (“BDO”) as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm to audit the Company’s financial statements for its fiscal year ending December 30, 2005. The dismissal of PwC and the engagement of BDO were approved by the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company.

The reports of PwC on the consolidated financial statements of the Company for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2004 and January 2, 2004 did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principle. During the fiscal years ended December 31, 2004 and January 2, 2004 and through August 26, 2005, there were no disagreements with PwC on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure which, if not resolved to PwC’s satisfaction, would have caused PwC to make reference thereto in connection with its reports on the financial statements of the Company for such years; and for the same periods there were no reportable events as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K.

The Audit Committee reviewed with BDO all matters required to be discussed by Statement of Auditing Standards No. 61 “Communications with Audit Committees.” In addition, the Committee has discussed with BDO the auditors’ independence from management and the Company, including the written disclosures delivered to the Committee by BDO as required by the Independence Standards Board Standard No. 1, and considered the compatibility of non-audit services with BDO’ independence.

The Audit Committee discussed with BDO the overall scope and plans for their audit. The Committee meets with BDO, without management present when appropriate, to discuss the results of their quarterly reviews and annual examination, their evaluations of the Company’s internal controls, and the overall quality of the Company’s financial reporting. The Committee held 12 meetings during fiscal year 2005.

The Audit Committee has approved all audit and non-audit services provided by PwC and BDO in 2005 and by BDO in the 2006 year to date. See “Pre-approval of Non-Audit Services” below.

The Audit Committee will consider the re-appointment of BDO as the Company’s independent auditors for the fiscal year ended December 29, 2006 at its regularly scheduled meeting to be held in August of 2006.

The Audit Committee oversees the Company’s financial reporting process on behalf of the Board of Directors. Management has the primary responsibility for the financial statements and the reporting process, including the systems of internal controls. In performing its oversight responsibilities, the Audit Committee reviewed and discussed the audited financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 30, 2005 with management and with representatives of BDO. The Audit Committee also reviewed, and discussed with management and representatives of BDO, management’s assessment and report and BDO’s report and attestation on the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting in accordance with Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002. In reliance on the reviews and discussions referred to above, the Committee recommended to the Board of Directors (and the Board has approved) that the audited financial statements be included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 30, 2005, for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Pre-approval of Non-Audit Services

All audit related services, tax services and other services were pre-approved by the Audit Committee, which concluded that the provision of such services by BDO was compatible with the maintenance of that firm’s independence in the conduct of its auditing functions. The Audit Committee’s Policy for Pre-Approval of Non-Audit Services provides for pre-approval of audit-related, tax and other services specifically described by the Committee on an annual basis. In addition, individual engagements anticipated to exceed pre-established thresholds must be separately approved. If the entire Audit Committee is not able to convene so that permitted non-audit services desired to be performed by the Company’s independent auditors can be reviewed and approved on timely basis, the Audit Committee Chairman is authorized to approve such services and make a verbal report to the full Committee as to the nature and cost of such services at the next Committee meeting following such approval.

PROPOSAL 2

TO APPROVE AN AMENDMENT TO THE 1998 STOCK OPTION AND INCENTIVE PLAN

TO RAISE THE SUBLIMIT FOR RESTRICTED STOCK AND RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS

ISSUANCES THEREUNDER FROM 5,000,000 SHARES TO 6,500,000 SHARES

Increase in Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Unit Sublimit by an additional 1,500,000 Shares.

The Board of Directors believes that the continued growth and success of the Company depends, in large part, upon its ability to attract, retain and motivate key employees. The Board of Directors also believes that to attract and retain key employees, the Company must be able to issue long term incentives in the form of restricted stock and restricted stock units under its 1998 Stock Option and Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The Board of Directors believes that prospective employees and existing employees place a much greater value on restricted stock units than they do on stock options. In addition, recently enacted accounting rules have made it more complex and expensive to issue stock options. Accordingly, a large number of companies have transitioned the equity components of their compensation plans from stock options to restricted stock or restricted stock units. The Company issued no stock options to employees in 2005. The Plan authorizes the issuance of up to 20,000,000 shares of Common Stock pursuant to awards, provided that no more than 5,000,000 shares of Common Stock can be issued in connection with the issuance of restricted stock or restricted stock units. In order to implement the programs approved by the Compensation Committee, which are further discussed below, the Company and its Board of Directors are seeking the approval of a proposed amendment to the Plan which would raise the sublimit with respect to the awards of restricted stock and restricted stock units from 5,000,000 shares to 6,500,000 shares. The proposed amendment does not increase the total number of shares authorized for issuance under the Plan. As of the March 15, 2006, an aggregate of 10,590,701 shares were available for issuance under the Plan, which includes a sub-limit of 437,100 shares available for issuance of restricted stock or restricted stock units. If this Proposal 2 is approved, an aggregate of 1,937,100 shares of Common Stock will be available for grants of restricted stock or restricted stock units under the Plan.

The Board expects that the Company will continue to use restricted stock and restricted stock units as its primary equity-based long term incentive vehicle to attract, motivate and retain key employees but retains the right to modify its practice in accordance with the terms of the Plan in the future. For 2006 the Board and its Compensation Committee established earnings per share growth and underlying practice operating performance goals that they believe will lead to share price appreciation. These earnings per share growth and underlying operating performance goals have been incorporated into, and are a critical component of, the performance-based long term equity incentive component of the compensation program for our executive team, including our Chief Executive Officer, Chief Operating Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as well as the senior leaders of our Hackett Group subsidiary and Best Practice Solutions Group. The long term equity incentive awards associated with this program are intended to be in the form of restricted stock units. If the Compensation Committee approved performance goals are not met, no restricted stock units will be issued. Further, each operating target has a dilution cap assigned to it. As such, the number of restricted stock units earned by the achievement of the performance goals will be decreased if the issuance of all earned awards would result in a dilutive impact greater than that assigned to the level of performance obtained.

The following table illustrates the long term equity incentive features of our 2006 performance based compensation program:

2006 Long Term Equity Incentive Program Structure

	Board Approved Performance Criteria
Participants	Commence	Goal	Superior
	Minimum EPS or EBITDA Growth Target	Target EPS or EBITDA Growth Target	Superior EPS or EBITDA Growth Target
Number of Participants—Named Executive Officers, Hackett Group and Best Practice Solutions Group Leaders	11	12	13
Expected aggregate number of shares underlying 2006 restricted stock unit awards (assumes year end price of Answerthink Common Stock of $6, $7 and $8, respectively)	158,021	507,054	677,109
If proposal is not approved, expected aggregate number of shares underlying stock options to be granted, assuming a multiple of three times expected RSU Issuances	474,063	1,521,162	2,021,327

Key 2006 Program Features:

• Individual restricted stock unit awards are limited to a percentage of the participant’s base salary and can also be reduced in the event the total number of units that must be issued in total exceeds the dilution cap defined in the program for each threshold.

• The number of restricted stock units included in each award is also determined based on the fair market value of our Common Stock as of the end of the fiscal year. Pro-rata awards are issued for amounts earned between thresholds. Awards vest one third on the first, second and third anniversaries of the date of grant.

• Restricted stock unit awards are issued based on targeted pro-forma earnings per share growth and underlying practice plans consistent with the Board of Directors short-term and long-term shareholder value creation goals.

• Program features for future periods are subject to change.

If Proposal 2 is not approved, the Company will be required to issue a larger number of stock options in lieu of restricted stock units upon the achievement of target performance levels. The grant of stock options will require, in most circumstances, a higher and more volatile expense item on our profit and loss statement than would exist if restricted stock units are issued. The foregoing is a broad summary of the 2006 long term equity incentive program. The Board retains the right to modify the program in the future.

As discussed in greater detail below, the Plan authorizes the issuance of up to 20,000,000 shares of Common Stock pursuant to an award, provided that no more than 5,000,000 shares of Common Stock can be issued in connection with the issuance of restricted stock or restricted stock units. In order to implement the programs approved by the Compensation Committee, the Company and its Board of Directors are seeking shareholder approval to raise the sublimit with respect to awards of restricted stock and restricted stock units under the Plan from 5,000,000 shares to 6,500,000 shares. The amendment does not increase the total number of shares reserved for issuance under the Plan.

At the Annual Meeting, the shareholders of the Company will be asked to vote to approve the above amendment to the Plan. Unless otherwise instructed on the proxy, properly executed proxies will be voted in favor of Proposal 2 to approve the amendment to the Plan. The affirmative vote of a majority of the shares of Common Stock present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the proposal is required to approve the amendment to the Plan.

Material Features of the Plan

The following description of the material terms of the Plan, as amended, is intended to be a summary only. This summary is qualified in its entirety by the complete text of the Plan, which is included as Appendix B to this Proxy Statement. Except for (i) the increase in the sublimit for awards of restricted stock and restricted stock units and (ii) adjustments to the terms applicable to performance-based awards, discussed in further detail below in Proposal 3, the proposed amendments for which stockholder approval is sought make no changes in the Plan as previously in effect.

Purpose. The purpose of the Plan is to advance the interests of the Company by providing eligible individuals an opportunity to acquire or increase a proprietary interest in the Company, which thereby will create a stronger incentive to expend maximum effort for the growth and success of the Company and will encourage such eligible individuals to remain employed by the Company. The Board of Directors believes that the opportunity to acquire an equity interest in the Company, especially through restricted stock and restricted stock units, will attract and encourage the continued employment and service of officers and other key employees by facilitating their acquisition of an equity interest in the Company. Further, approval of the Plan to increase the aggregate number of shares available for the issuance of restricted stock or restricted stock units will afford the Company the ability to sustain existing performance-based compensation plans and the additional flexibility in making awards deemed necessary to support the goals of the Company in the future.

Eligible Individuals. The Plan provides for grants to officers, directors, employees, consultants and other service providers of the Company and its subsidiaries.

Shares Available for Issuance; Award Restrictions. The Plan, as amended, authorizes the issuance of up to 20,000,000 shares of Common Stock, plus any shares of Common Stock awarded under any prior stock option plan of the Company that are forfeited or otherwise terminate without the delivery of stock. If this Proposal is approved, the number of shares that can be awarded as restricted stock or restricted stock units will be increased to 6,500,000. During any calendar year, the maximum number of options that may be granted to any one person is 1,000,000 and the maximum number of shares underlying the issuance of restricted stock and restricted stock units that may be issued to any one person is 400,000. Each of these limits is subject to anti-dilution adjustments in the event of a stock split, recapitalization or similar transaction. As of the record date for the 2006 Annual Meeting, 10,590,701 shares were available for issuance under the Plan, which includes a sub-limit of 437,100 shares available for issuance as restricted stock or restricted stock units. Please see the Equity Compensation Plan Information table on page 9.

Administration. The Board of Directors has such powers and authorities related to the administration of the Plan as are consistent with the Company’s certificate of incorporation, By-laws and applicable law. The Board of Directors, from time to time, may delegate to a committee such powers and authorities related to the administration and implementation of the Plan as the Board of Directors shall determine. The Board of Directors has the full power and authority to take all actions and to make all determinations required or provided for under the Plan and to take all such other actions and make all such other determinations not inconsistent with the specific terms and provisions of the Plan that the Board of Directors deems to be necessary or appropriate to the administration of the Plan. To the extent an award is intended to constitute performance-based compensation for purposes of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code, it will be granted and administered by a committee consisting solely of “outside directors” as that term is defined in Section 162(m). The Company’s Compensation Committee currently has authority to administer the Plan.

Stock Subject to the Plan. The shares issued or to be issued under the Plan are shares of our Common Stock. On March 28, 2006, the market price of our Common Stock on the Nasdaq National Market was $6.27.

Types of Awards. Awards under the plan include incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, restricted stock and restricted stock units.

21

Stock Options. The Board of Directors may, from time to time grant nonqualified stock options or incentive stock options (within the meaning of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code). The exercise price of all stock options generally may not be less than 100% (110% in the case of incentive stock options granted to individuals who own more than 10% of the Company’s voting securities) of the fair market value of a share of Common Stock on the date of grant. Stock options expire ten years after the date of grant (five years in the case of incentive stock options granted to individuals who own more than 10% of the Company’s voting securities). Unless otherwise determined by the Board of Directors (i) upon a termination of a grantee’s employment other than for death or disability, unvested options will terminate immediately and vested options will remain exercisable for 90 days, (ii) upon a grantee’s termination due to death all options will vest and will remain exercisable for one year and (iii) upon a grantee’s termination of employment due to disability, all options will continue to vest and shall remain exercisable for one year. Stock options are intended to constitute “performance-based compensation for purposes of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code.

Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units. The Board of Directors may from time to time grant restricted stock or restricted stock units to persons eligible to receive grants under the Plan, subject to such restrictions, conditions and other terms as the Board of Directors may determine. A restricted stock unit represents a conditional right to receive a share of Common Stock in the future. At the time a grant of restricted stock or restricted stock units is made, the Board of Directors shall establish a period of time over which the grant vests subject to the continued employment of the grantee (the “Restricted Period”). Each grant of restricted stock or restricted stock units may be subject to a different Restricted Period. The Board of Directors may, in its sole discretion, at the time a grant of restricted stock or restricted stock units is made, prescribe restrictions in addition to or other than the expiration of the Restricted Period, including the satisfaction of corporate or individual performance objectives, which may be applicable to all or any portion of the restricted stock or restricted stock units. The Board of Directors also may, in its sole discretion, shorten or terminate the Restricted Period or waive any other restrictions applicable to all or a portion of the restricted stock or restricted stock units. Unless otherwise determined by the Board of Directors (i) upon a termination of a grantee’s employment other than for death or disability, unvested restricted stock and restricted stock units will terminate immediately, (ii) upon a grantee’s termination due to death all restricted stock and restricted stock units will vest immediately and (iii) upon a grantee’s termination of employment due to disability, all restricted stock and restricted stock units will continue to vest for one year.

Performance-Based Awards. The Committee may designate any restricted stock or restricted stock units awarded under the Plan as “performance-based compensation” as that term is used in Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code. The performance targets that may be used by the Committee for such grants will be based on the achievement of measurable and attainable financial targets selected by the Committee from the following list with respect to the Company or its subsidiaries, divisions, departments, regions, functions or business units:

costs, expense targets, market share, net income, revenue, net revenue, operating cash flow, operating margin, operating revenue, revenue growth rates, pretax income, pretax operating income, operating income growth, net operating profit, return on assets, return on net assets, sales, total shareholder return, relative total shareholder return (versus an index or peer group), stock price, return on equity, return on capital, total earnings, operating earnings, earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT), earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA), basic or diluted earnings per share or earnings per share growth calculated on a pro-forma basis or based on generally accepted accounting principles, operating efficiency ratios, economic value added, cash flow return on investment, free cash flow, net cash provided by operations, gross margin, internal rate of return, or a combination thereof as selected by the Committee.

The performance targets may be measured on an absolute or cumulative basis or on the basis of a percentage of improvement over time and may be measured in terms of the performance of the Company (or its subsidiaries, departments, divisions, regions, functions, or business units) or measured relative to selected peer companies or a market index. The applicable performance goals will be established by the Committee within 90 days following the commencement of the applicable performance period (or such earlier or later date as permitted or required by Section 162(m)). Each grantee will be assigned a target number of shares of stock payable if the specified

22

performance targets are achieved. At the end of the performance period, the Committee will certify the attainment of the performance targets and payment of the awards will be conditioned upon such certification. The Committee may provide that the number of shares of Common Stock payable under a grant will exceed the target number, but in no event can the amounts exceed the limits described below. In addition, the Committee may reduce any award in its sole discretion even if the performance goals are satisfied. The terms of performance-based awards will be made and administered in accordance with Section 162(m). Stock options will also constitute performance-based compensation for purposes of Section 162(m).

Repricing of Options. The Plan prohibits repricing of stock options. For these purposes, to reprice a stock option means (i) to reduce the exercise price, or (ii) to grant a new award with a lower exercise or grant price in exchange for the cancellation of the original award.

Transferability. Except as otherwise provided in the Plan or an applicable award agreement, during the lifetime of a grantee, only the grantee (or, in the event of legal incapacity or incompetence, the grantee’s guardian or legal representative) may exercise an option. Except as otherwise provided in the Plan or an applicable award agreement, no option shall be assignable or transferable by the grantee to whom it is granted, other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution. Notwithstanding the forgoing, the Board of Directors may permit a grantee to transfer an option without consideration to an immediate family member or a trust or partnership formed for the benefit of immediate family members. Neither restricted stock nor restricted stock units may be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged or otherwise encumbered or disposed of during the Restricted Period or prior to the satisfaction of any other restrictions prescribed by the Board of Directors with respect to such restricted stock or restricted stock units other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution.

Term; Amendment. The Plan will remain in effect until terminated by the Board of Directors, however, no incentive stock options may be granted on or after the 10^th anniversary of the effective date of the Plan. The Board of Directors may generally amend or terminate the Plan at any time to the extent permitted by applicable laws, rules and regulations.

Change in Control. Awards granted under the Plan may vest upon a change of control of the Company (as defined in the Plan), if the awards are not assumed or substituted for by an acquiring company. Outstanding options and other awards will be adjusted in the event of a stock split or other similar corporate transactions.

Summary of U.S. Federal Tax Consequences. The following is a brief and general discussion of the U.S. Federal income tax rules applicable to awards granted under the Plan.

Options Generally. The grant of an option is not a taxable event for the optionee or the Company.

Incentive Stock Options. A grantee will not recognize taxable income upon exercise of an incentive stock option (except that the alternative minimum tax may apply), and any gain realized upon a disposition of shares of Common Stock received pursuant to the exercise of an incentive stock option will be taxed as long-term capital gain if the grantee holds the shares of Common Stock for at least two years after the date of grant and for one year after the date of exercise (the “holding period requirement”). The Company will not be entitled to any business expense deduction with respect to the exercise of an incentive stock option, except as discussed below.

For the exercise of an incentive stock option to qualify for the foregoing tax treatment, the grantee generally must be an employee of the Company from the date the option is granted through a date within three months before the date of the option is exercised. In the case of a grantee who is disabled or dies, the three-month period is extended to one year.

If all of the requirements for incentive stock option treatment are met except for the holding period requirement, the grantee will recognize ordinary income upon the disposition of shares of Common Stock received pursuant to the exercise of an incentive stock option in an amount equal to the excess of the fair market value of the shares of Common Stock at the time the option was exercised over the exercise price. The balance of the realized gain, if any, will be taxed at applicable capital gains tax rates. The Company will be allowed a business expense deduction to the extent the optionee recognizes ordinary income, subject to the limitations under Section 162(m) of the Code.

23

Non-Qualified Stock Options. Upon exercising a stock option that is not an incentive stock option, a grantee will recognize ordinary income in an amount equal to the difference between the exercise price and the fair market value of the shares of Common Stock on the date of exercise. Upon a subsequent sale or exchange of shares of Common Stock acquired pursuant to the exercise of a non-qualified stock option, the grantee will have taxable gain or loss, measured by the difference between the amount realized on the disposition and the tax basis of the shares of Common Stock (generally, the amount paid for the shares of Common Stock plus the amount treated as ordinary income at the time the option was exercised).

The Company will be entitled to a business expense deduction in the same amount and generally at the same time as the grantee recognizes ordinary income provided that the deduction is not disallowed under Section 162(m) of the Code. The options are intended to comply with the exception to Section 162(m) for “qualified performance-based compensation.”

Restricted Stock. A grantee will not recognize any taxable income for federal income tax purposes in the year restricted stock is granted, provided that the shares of Common Stock are subject to restrictions (that is, the restricted stock is nontransferable and subject to a substantial risk of forfeiture). However, the grantee may elect under Section 83(b) of the Internal Revenue Code to recognize compensation income in the year of the award in an amount equal to the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date of the award, determined without regard to the restrictions. If the grantee does not make a Section 83(b) election, the fair market value of the Common Stock on the date the restrictions lapse will be treated as compensation income to the grantee and will be taxable in the year the restrictions lapse. The Company generally will be entitled to a deduction for compensation paid in the same amount treated as compensation income to the grantee in the year the grantee is taxed on the income subject to Section 162(m).

Restricted Stock Units. There are no immediate tax consequences upon the grant of restricted stock units under the Plan. A grantee who is awarded restricted stock units will be required to recognize ordinary income in an amount equal to the fair market value of the Common Stock issued to such grantee at the end of the restriction period or, if later, the payment date. The Company generally will be entitled to a deduction for compensation paid in the same amount treated as compensation income to the grantee in the year the grantee is taxed on the income subject to Section 162(m).

The forgoing is not to be considered as tax advice to any person who may be a participant in the Plan and any such persons are advised to consult their own tax counsel. The forgoing is intended to be a general discussion and does not cover all aspects of an individual’s unique tax situation such as the tax consequences of deferred compensation or state and local taxes.

New Plan Benefits. Because the granting of awards under the Plan is completely within the discretion of the Compensation Committee, it is not possible to determine at this time the awards that may be made to officers or other employees under the Plan in the future. However, under the existing incentive compensation plans for our executive team and Hackett leadership, the grant of restricted stock units is conditioned upon attainment of certain performance targets The Board reserves the right to make additional grants under either of these programs in its sole discretion.

The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes present in person and entitled to vote is required to approve the amendments to the Plan.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR” PROPOSAL 2.

PROPOSAL 3

TO APPROVE THE PERFORMANCE GOALS UNDER THE 1998 STOCK OPTION AND INCENTIVE

PLAN FOR PURPOSES OF SECTION 162(m) OF THE

INTERNAL REVENUE CODE

Approval of Performance Criteria for Purposes of Section 162(m).

US federal tax laws generally do not permit publicly-held companies to obtain tax deductions for compensation of more than $1 million paid in any year to their Chief Executive Officer and the four other most highly paid executive officers. One exception to this limitation on deductibility is compensation that satisfies the criterion of “performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”). One of the requirements for compensation to be performance-based for purposes of Section 162(m) is that the Company must obtain shareholder approval of the material terms of the applicable performance goals. The material terms that must be approved by shareholders include:

(i) the group of employees whose compensation would be subject to the performance goals;

(ii) the business measurements on which each of the performance goals is based; and

(iii) the maximum amounts payable to any executive officer under each performance goal.

To the extent that a plan provides the Company with the discretion to select the performance goals applicable to an award from a list of shareholder approved goals, shareholder approval must be obtained every five years.

On March 24, 2006, the Board of Directors amended, subject to shareholder approval, the terms applicable to performance-based awards granted under the Company’s 1998 Stock Option and Incentive Compensation Plan (the “Plan”) in the manner described below to allow the Company to grant options, restricted stock and restricted stock units that satisfy the requirements of the performance-based compensation exemption under Section 162(m). The amendment modifies the list of performance criteria that the Committee may utilize in granting performance-based awards in the future and clarifies certain terms applicable to performance-based awards. The following is a summary of the terms applicable to Section 162(m) performance-based awards granted under the Plan:

The Committee may designate any restricted stock or restricted stock units awarded under the Plan as “performance-based compensation” as that term is used in Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code. The performance targets that may be used by the Committee for such grants will be based on the achievement of measurable and attainable financial targets selected by the Committee from the following list with respect to the Company or its subsidiaries, divisions, departments, regions, functions or business units:

costs, expense targets, market share, net income, revenue, net revenue, operating cash flow, operating margin, operating revenue, revenue growth rates, pretax income, pretax operating income, operating income growth, net operating profit, return on assets, return on net assets, sales, total shareholder return, relative total shareholder return (versus an index or peer group), stock price, return on equity, return on capital, total earnings, operating earnings, earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT), earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA), basic or diluted earnings per share or earnings per share growth calculated on a pro-forma basis or based on generally accepted accounting principles, operating efficiency ratios, economic value added, cash flow return on investment, free cash flow, net cash provided by operations, gross margin, internal rate of return, or a combination thereof as selected by the Committee.

The performance targets may be measured on an absolute or cumulative basis or on the basis of a percentage of improvement over time and may be measured in terms of the performance of the Company (or its subsidiaries, departments, divisions, regions, functions, or business units) or measured relative to selected peer companies or a market index. The applicable performance goals will be established by the Committee within 90 days following the commencement of the applicable performance period (or such earlier or later date as permitted or required by

25

Section 162(m)). Each grantee will be assigned a target number of shares of stock payable if the specified performance targets are achieved. At the end of the performance period, the Committee will certify the attainment of the performance targets and payment of the awards will be conditioned upon such certification. The Committee may provide that the number of shares of Common Stock payable under a grant will exceed the target number, but in no event can the amounts exceed the limits described below. In addition, the Committee may reduce any award in its sole discretion even if the performance goals are satisfied. The terms of performance-based awards will be made and administered in accordance with Section 162(m). Stock options will also constitute performance-based compensation for purposes of Section 162(m).

A more complete description of the Plan is set forth on page 21 of this Proxy Statement with respect to Proposal 2 approving additional amendments to the Plan. In addition, a copy of the plan is attached as Appendix B to this Proxy Statement and the summary contained herein is qualified in its entirety by the complete text of the Plan. Awards under the plan may be granted to any officer, director employee or consultant or other service provider of the Company and its subsidiaries. As discussed in Proposal 2 above, the maximum number of shares of common stock that may be granted to an individual with respect to stock options in any one calendar year is 1,000,000. Moreover, the maximum number of shares of common stock that may be granted to an individual with respect to restricted stock and restricted stock units in any one calendar year is 400,000.

The Board of Directors believes that it is in the best interest of the Company and its shareholders to have the ability to grant options, restricted stock and restricted stock units that are eligible to qualify as performance-based compensation under Section 162(m). The Board of Directors also believes that it is in the Company’s best interest to have as broad a list of performance criteria as possible on which to base performance grants.

At the Annual Meeting, the shareholders of the Company will be asked to vote to approve the above amendment to the Plan. Unless otherwise instructed on the proxy, properly executed proxies will be voted in favor of Proposal 3 to approve the amendment to the Plan. The affirmative vote of a majority of the shares of Common Stock present in person or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote on the proposal is required to approve the amendment to the Plan.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS RECOMMENDS A VOTE “FOR” PROPOSAL 3.

ANSWERTHINK, INC

AUDIT COMMITTEE CHARTER

PURPOSE

The primary functions of the Audit Committee (the “Audit Committee” or “Committee”) of Answerthink, Inc. (the “Company”) are (1) to assist the Board of Directors in its responsibility for oversight of (a) the quality and integrity of the Company’s financial statements and its financial reporting and disclosure practices, (b) the Company’s systems of internal controls regarding finance and accounting compliance, (c) the independence and performance of the Company’s outside auditors, and (d) the Company’s ethical compliance programs, and (2) to perform the other functions required of audit committees of public companies under applicable laws, rules and regulations and the requirements of the Nasdaq Stock Market or any other national securities exchange on which the securities of the Company are then listed (the “Relevant Stock Market”). The Audit Committee shall have the authority to and be directly responsible for the appointment, compensation, evaluation, retention and oversight of the Company’s outside auditor engaged for the purpose of preparing or issuing an audit opinion or performing other audit, review or attest services for the Company. The Company’s outside auditor shall report directly to the Audit Committee.

The outside auditors are ultimately accountable to the Audit Committee. While the Committee has the oversight, supervisory and other powers and responsibilities set forth in this Charter and the Company’s Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws, it is not the responsibility of the Committee to plan or conduct audits, to implement internal controls, or to determine or certify that the Company’s financial statements are complete and accurate or are in compliance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. These matters and tasks are the responsibility of the Company’s management and the outside auditors. Likewise, it is the responsibility of the Company’s management and/or the outside auditors to bring appropriate matters to the attention of the Committee, and to keep the Committee informed of matters which the Company’s management or the outside auditors believe require attention, guidance, resolution or other actions, the bases therefore and other relevant considerations. While it is not the duty of the Audit Committee to conduct investigations or to assure compliance with applicable laws, rules and regulations, the Committee may take such actions with respect to such matters as it deems necessary or advisable in fulfilling its duties.

To the fullest extent permissible under applicable law, each member of the Committee is entitled to rely in good faith upon the records of the Company and upon such information, opinions, reports or statements presented to the Committee by any of the Company’s officers, employees, or committees, the outside auditors or any other person as to matters the member reasonably believes are within such other person’s professional or expert competence and who has been selected with reasonable care by or on behalf of the Company.

I. CONTINUOUS ACTIVITIES—GENERAL

1. Serve as an independent and objective body to oversee the Company’s financial reporting processes and related internal control systems. Provide an open avenue of communication among the outside auditors, management and the Board of Directors, and resolve any disagreements between management and the outside auditors regarding financial reporting.

2. Meet four times per year or more frequently as circumstances require. The Committee may ask members of management or others to attend meetings and provide pertinent information as necessary.

3. Confirm and assure the independence of the outside auditor by:

• periodically reviewing management consulting services, information technology services, and other non-audit services, if any, and the respective related fees, provided by and to the outside auditors, which

A-1

shall have been subject to pre-approval by the Audit Committee, and any transactional or other relationships between the Company and the outside auditors; and considering whether, under applicable laws, rules and regulations and the requirements of the Relevant Stock Market and under criteria the Audit Committee determines to be appropriate, the outside auditors’ provision of non-audit services to the Company is compatible with maintaining the independence of the outside auditors,

• requesting and reviewing a written disclosure letter from the Company’s outside auditors relating to their independence as required by Independent Standards Board (“ISB”) Standard No. 1,

• and discuss with the auditors any disclosed relationships or services that may impact the objectivity and independence of the outside auditors.

4. Inquire of management and the outside auditor about significant risks or exposures and assess the steps management has taken to minimize such risk to the Company. Also, review and assess the Company’s processes for identifying and assessing significant risks or exposures and for formulating and implementing steps to minimize such risks and exposures to the Company.

5. Consider and review with the outside auditor and management:

• The adequacy and effectiveness of the Company’s internal controls and procedures for financial reporting including computerized information system controls and security.

• Related findings and recommendations of the outside auditor together with management’s responses.

6. Consider and review with management and the outside auditor:

• Significant findings during the year, including the status of previous audit recommendations, and management’s responses thereto.

• Any difficulties encountered in the course of audit work including any restrictions on the scope of activities or access to required information.

7. As circumstances dictate, meet with the outside auditor and management in separate executive sessions to discuss any matters that the Committee or these groups believe should be discussed privately with the Audit Committee.

8. Report periodically to the Board of Directors on significant results of the foregoing activities.

9. Instruct the outside auditor that ultimately it is accountable to the Audit Committee, and that as the shareholders’ representatives, the Audit Committee possess the ultimate authority to appoint, compensate, evaluate, retain and, where appropriate, replace the outside auditor. Advise the outside auditor that it may communicate directly with the members of the Audit Committee outside of regularly scheduled committee meetings, as it deems appropriate.

10. Ensure compliance with all then current and applicable Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and the rules and regulations of the Relevant Stock Market as to Audit Committee membership and composition including, but not limited to, the requirements that the Committee be comprised of solely independent directors in accordance with the guidance issued by the Relevant Stock Market, each of whom are able to read and understand fundamental financial statements, with at least one member having previous employment experience in finance or accounting.

11. Establish, implement and conduct an annual review of the procedures for (i) the receipt, retention and treatment of complaints received by the Company regarding accounting controls or auditing matters and (ii) the confidential, anonymous submission by employees of the Company of concerns regarding questionable accounting or auditing matters.

A-2

II. INTERNAL REPORTING POLICIES

1. Advise management and the outside auditor they are expected to provide a timely analysis of significant current financial reporting issues and practices.

2. Provide that management and the outside auditor discuss with the Audit Committee their qualitative judgments about the appropriateness, not just the acceptability, of accounting principles and financial disclosure practices used or proposed to be adopted by the Company and, particularly, about the degree of aggressiveness or conservatism of its accounting principles and underlying estimates.

3. Inquire as to the auditor’s outside qualitative judgments about the quality and appropriateness, not just the acceptability, of the accounting principles as applied in its financial reporting and the clarity of the financial disclosure practices used or proposed to be adopted by the Company. For all critical underlying accounting principles, review with the outside auditor alternative accounting treatment permitted under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles that have been discussed with management of the Company, ramifications of the use of such alternative disclosures and treatments, the treatment preferred by the outside auditors.

4. Inquire as to the auditor’s views about whether management’s choices of accounting principles are conservative, moderate, or aggressive from the perspective of income, asset, and liability recognition, and whether those principles are common practices or are minority practices.

5. Inquire of management and the outside auditor about the Company’s material financial risks and its liquidity and how issues associated with risk and liquidity are identified and managed.

6. Determine, as regards to new transactions or events, the auditor’s reasoning for the appropriateness of the accounting principles and disclosure practices adopted by management.

7. Review policies and procedures with respect to Company transactions in which officers or directors have an interest; where appropriate, including when their review is requested by management or the outside auditors, review policies and procedures with regard to officers’ expense accounts and perquisites, including their use of corporate assets and consider the results of any review of these areas by the outside auditors. Review such related party transactions, transactions which involve parties whose relationship with the Company may enable them to negotiate terms more favorable than those available to other, more independent parties and all other transactions to the extent required by the Relevant Stock Market or applicable law to be approved by an audit committee or comparable body.

8. Assure that the auditor’s reasoning is described in determining the appropriateness of changes in accounting principles and disclosure practices.

III. EXTERNAL REPORTING POLICIES

Include in proxy statements prepared for votes of shareholders an Audit Committee report. This report shall state:

1. Whether the Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed the issuer’s audited financial statements with management.

2. Whether the Audit Committee has discussed with the outside auditors the matters required to be discussed by Statement on Auditing Standards (SAS) 61 “Communications with Audit Committees”.

3. Whether the Audit Committee has received the written disclosures and letter from the issuer’s outside auditors relating to their independence as required by Independent Standards Board (“ISB”) Standard No. 1, has discussed with the auditors the auditors’ independence, has considered whether the non-audit services provided by the outside auditor may affect its independence and has approved all non-audit services performed by the outside auditors.

During any time when the Company has a class of equity security registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act, the maximum number of shares of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units that can be awarded under the Plan to any person eligible for a Grant under Section 6 hereof is 400,000 per calendar year (subject to adjustment as provided in Section 16 hereof).

7.2 Limitations on Incentive Stock Options.

An Option shall constitute an Incentive Stock Option only (i) if the Grantee of such Option is an employee of the Company or any Subsidiary of the Company; (ii) to the extent specifically provided in the related Award Agreement; and (iii) to the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value (determined at the time the Option is granted) of the shares of Stock with respect to which all Incentive Stock Options held by such Grantee become exercisable for the first time during any calendar year (under the Plan and all other plans of the Grantee’s employer and its affiliates) does not exceed $100,000. This limitation shall be applied by taking Options into account in the order in which they were granted.

B-5

8. AWARD AGREEMENT

Each Grant pursuant to the Plan shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement, in such form or forms as the Board shall from time to time determine. Award Agreements granted from time to time or at the same time need not contain similar provisions but shall be consistent with the terms of the Plan. Each Award Agreement evidencing a Grant of Options shall specify whether such Options are intended to be non-qualified stock options or Incentive Stock Options, and in the absence of such specification such options shall be deemed non-qualified stock options.

9. OPTION PRICE

The Option Price of each Option shall be fixed by the Board and stated in the Award Agreement evidencing such Option. The Option Price shall be no lower than the Fair Market Value on the Grant Date of a share of Stock; provided, however, that in the event that a Grantee would otherwise be ineligible to receive an Incentive Stock Option by reason of the provisions of Sections 422(b)(6) and 424(d) of the Code (relating to ownership of more than ten percent of the Company’s outstanding Stock), the Option Price of an Option granted to such Grantee that is intended to be an Incentive Stock Option shall be not less than the greater of the par value or 110 percent of the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the Grant Date. In no case shall the Option Price of any Option be less than the par value of a share of Stock. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary in this Section 9, the Board shall have the authority under the Plan to make a one time grant of non-qualified options with an Option Price less than the Fair Market Value of the Stock on the Grant Date to employees of the Company or its Subsidiaries who were participants in the Company’s Employee Stock Purchase Plan (“ESPP”) during the Offering Period ending December 31, 2000, and participants who enrolled in the ESPP for the Offering Period beginning January 1, 2001. The Board’s authority to make option grants at an Option Price of less than the Fair Market Value of the Stock on the Grant Date shall be limited to this one time grant.

10. VESTING, TERM AND EXERCISE OF OPTIONS

10.1 Vesting and Option Period.

Subject to Sections 10.2 and 16.3 hereof, each Option granted under the Plan shall become exercisable at such times and under such conditions as shall be determined by the Board and stated in the Award Agreement. For purposes of this Section 10.1, fractional numbers of shares of Stock subject to an Option shall be rounded down to the next nearest whole number. The period during which any Option shall be exercisable shall constitute the “Option Period” with respect to such Option.

10.2 Term.

Each Option granted under the Plan shall terminate, and all rights to purchase shares of Stock thereunder shall cease, upon the expiration of ten years from the date such Option is granted, or under such circumstances and on such date prior thereto as is set forth in the Plan or as may be fixed by the Board and stated in the Award Agreement relating to such Option (the “Termination Date”); provided, however, that in the event that the Grantee would otherwise be ineligible to receive an Incentive Stock Option by reason of the provisions of Sections 422(b)(6) and 424(d) of the Code (relating to ownership of more than ten percent of the outstanding Stock), an Option granted to such Grantee that is intended to be an Incentive Stock Option shall not be exercisable after the expiration of five years from its Grant Date.

10.3 Acceleration.

Any limitation on the exercise of an Option contained in any Award Agreement may be rescinded, modified or waived by the Board, in its sole discretion, at any time and from time to time after the Grant Date of such Option, so as to accelerate the time at which the Option may be exercised. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, no Option shall be exercisable in whole or in part prior to the date the Plan is approved by the shareholders of the Company as provided in Section 5.1 hereof.

B-6

10.4 Termination of Employment or Other Relationship.

Upon the termination of a Grantee’s employment or other relationship with the Company other than by reason of death or “permanent and total disability” (within the meaning of Section 22(e)(3) of the Code), any Option or portion thereof held by such Grantee that has not vested in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.1 hereof shall terminate immediately, and any Option or portion thereof that has vested in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.1 hereof but has not been exercised shall terminate at the close of business on the 90th day following the Grantee’s termination of employment or other relationship (or, if such 90th day is a Saturday, Sunday or holiday, at the close of business on the next preceding day that is not a Saturday, Sunday or holiday), unless the Board, in its discretion, extends the period during which the Option may be exercised (which period may not be extended beyond the original term of the Option). Upon termination of an Option or portion thereof, the Grantee shall have no further right to purchase shares of Stock pursuant to such Option or portion thereof. Whether a leave of absence or leave on military or government service shall constitute a termination of employment or other relationship for purposes of the Plan shall be determined by the Board, which determination shall be final and conclusive. For purposes of the Plan, a termination of employment, service or other relationship shall not be deemed to occur if the Grantee is immediately thereafter employed with the Company or any other Service Provider, or is engaged as a Service Provider or an Outside director of the Company. Whether of termination of a Service Provider’s or an Outside Director’s relationship with the Company shall have occurred shall be determined by the Committee, which determination shall be final and conclusive.

10.5 Rights in the Event of Death.

If a Grantee dies while employed by or providing services to the Company, all Options granted to such Grantee shall fully vest on the date of death, and the executors or administrators or legatees or distributees of such Grantee’s estate shall have the right, at any time within one year after the date of such Grantee’s death (or such longer period as the Board, in its discretion, may determine prior to the expiration of such one-year period) and prior to termination of the Option pursuant to Section 10.2 above, to exercise any Option held by such Grantee at the date of such Grantee’s death.

10.6 Rights in the Event of Disability.

If a Grantee’s employment or other relationship with the Company is terminated by reason of the “permanent and total disability” (within the meaning of Section 22(e)(3) of the Code) of such Grantee, such Grantee’s Options shall continue to vest, and shall be exercisable to the extent that they are vested, for a period of one year after such termination of employment or service (or such longer period as the Board, in its discretion, may determine prior to the expiration of such one-year period), subject to earlier termination of the Option as provided in Section 10.2 above. Whether a termination of employment or service is to be considered by reason of “permanent and total disability” for purposes of the Plan shall be determined by the Board, which determination shall be final and conclusive.

10.7 Limitations on Exercise of Option.

Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, in no event may any Option be exercised, in whole or in part, prior to the date the Plan is approved by the shareholders of the Company as provided herein, or after ten years following the date upon which the Option is granted, or after the occurrence of an event referred to in Section 16 hereof which results in termination of the Option.

10.8 Method of Exercise.

An Option that is exercisable may be exercised by the Grantee’s delivery to the Company of written notice of exercise on any business day, at the Company’s principal office, addressed to the attention of the Board. Such notice shall specify the number of shares of Stock with respect to which the Option is being exercised and shall be accompanied by payment in full of the Option Price of the shares for which the Option is being exercised. The

B-7

minimum number of shares of Stock with respect to which an Option may be exercised, in whole or in part, at any time shall be the lesser of (i) 100 shares or such lesser number set forth in the applicable Award Agreement and (ii) the maximum number of shares available for purchase under the Option at the time of exercise. Payment of the Option Price for the shares purchased pursuant to the exercise of an Option shall be made (i) in cash or in cash equivalents; (ii) through the tender to the Company of shares of Stock, which shares, if acquired from the Company, shall have been held for at least six months and which shall be valued, for purposes of determining the extent to which the Option Price has been paid thereby, at their Fair Market Value on the date of exercise; or (iii) by a combination of the methods described in (i) and (ii). The Board may provide, by inclusion of appropriate language in an Award Agreement, that payment in full of the Option Price need not accompany the written notice of exercise provided that the notice of exercise directs that the certificate or certificates for the shares of Stock for which the Option is exercised be delivered to a licensed broker acceptable to the Company as the agent for the individual exercising the Option and, at the time such certificate or certificates are delivered, the broker tenders to the Company cash (or cash equivalents acceptable to the Company) equal to the Option Price for the shares of Stock purchased pursuant to the exercise of the Option plus the amount (if any) of federal and/or other taxes which the Company may in its judgment, be required to withhold with respect to the exercise of the Option. An attempt to exercise any Option granted hereunder other than as set forth above shall be invalid and of no force and effect. Unless otherwise stated in the applicable Award Agreement, an individual holding or exercising an Option shall have none of the rights of a shareholder (for example, the right to receive cash or dividend payments or distributions attributable to the subject shares of Stock or to direct the voting of the subject shares of Stock) until the shares of Stock covered thereby are fully paid and issued to such individual. Except as provided in Section 16 hereof, no adjustment shall be made for dividends, distributions or other rights for which the record date is prior to the date of such issuance.

10.9 Delivery of Stock Certificates.

Promptly after the exercise of an Option by a Grantee and the payment in full of the Option Price, such Grantee shall be entitled to the issuance of a stock certificate or certificates evidencing his or her ownership of the shares of Stock subject to the Option.

10.10 Repricing of Options.

Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, an Option shall not be granted in substitution for a previously granted Option being canceled or surrendered as a condition of receiving a new Grant if the new Grant would have a lower exercise price than the Grant it replaces, nor shall the exercise price of an Option be reduced once the Option is granted. The foregoing shall not prevent adjustments pursuant to Section 16.

11. TRANSFERABILITY OF OPTIONS

11.1 General Rule.

Except as provided in Section 11.2, during the lifetime of a Grantee, only the Grantee (or, in the event of legal incapacity or incompetency, the Grantee’s guardian or legal representative) may exercise an Option. Except as provided in Section 11.2, no Option shall be assignable or transferable by the Grantee to whom it is granted, other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution.

11.2 Family Transfers.

If authorized in the applicable Award Agreement, a Grantee may transfer all or part of an Option that is not an Incentive Stock Option to (i) any Immediate Family Member, (ii) a trust or trusts for the exclusive benefit of any Immediate Family Member, or (iii) a partnership in which Immediate Family Members are the only partners, provided that (x) there may be no consideration for any such transfer, and (y) subsequent transfers of transferred Options are prohibited except those in accordance with this Section 11.2 or by will or the laws of descent and distribution. Following transfer, any such Option shall continue to be subject to the same terms and conditions as

B-8

were applicable immediately prior to transfer, provided that for purposes of Section 11.2 hereof the term “Grantee” shall be deemed to refer the transferee. The events of termination of the employment or other relationship of Section 10.4 hereof shall continue to be applied with respect to the original Grantee, following which the Option shall be exercisable by the transferee only to the extent, and for the periods specified in Sections 10.4, 10.5 or 10.6.

12. RESTRICTED STOCK AND RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS

12.1 Grant of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units.

The Board may from time to time grant Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units to persons eligible to receive Grants under Section 6 hereof, subject to such restrictions, conditions and other terms as the Board may determine.

12.2 Restrictions.

At the time a Grant of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units is made, the Board shall establish a period of time (the “Restricted Period”) applicable to such Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units. Each Grant of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units may be subject to a different Restricted Period. The Board may, in its sole discretion, at the time a Grant of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units is made, prescribe restrictions in addition to or other than the expiration of the Restricted Period, including the satisfaction of corporate or individual performance objectives, which may be applicable to all or any portion of the Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units. Subject to the second sentence of this Section 12.2, the Board also may, in its sole discretion, shorten or terminate the Restricted Period or waive any other restrictions applicable to all or a portion of the Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units. Neither Restricted Stock nor Restricted Stock Units may be sold, transferred, assigned, pledged or otherwise encumbered or disposed of during the Restricted Period or prior to the satisfaction of any other restrictions prescribed by the Board with respect to such Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units.

12.3. Performance-Based Grants.

The Committee may determine whether any Grant under the Plan is intended to be “performance-based compensation” as that term is used in Section 162(m) of the Code. Any such Grants designated to be “performance-based compensation” shall be conditioned on the achievement of one or more performance targets, to the extent required by Section 162(m) of the Code and will be subject to all other conditions and requirements of Section 162(m). The performance targets that may be used by the Committee for such Grants will be comprised of specified levels of one or more of the following as the Committee deems appropriate: costs, expense targets, market share, net income, revenue, net revenue, operating cash flow, operating margin, operating revenue, revenue growth rates, pretax income, pretax operating income, operating income growth, net operating profit, return on assets, return on net assets, sales, total shareholder return, relative total shareholder return (versus an index or peer group), Stock price, return on equity, return on capital, total earnings, operating earnings, earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT), earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA), basic or diluted earnings per share or earnings per share growth calculated on a pro-forma basis or based on generally accepted accounting principles, operating efficiency ratios, economic value added, cash flow return on investment, free cash flow, net cash provided by operations, gross margin, internal rate of return, or a combination thereof. The performance targets may be described in terms of objectives that are related to the individual Grantee or objectives that are Company-wide or related to a Subsidiary, division, department, region, function or business unit and may be measured on an absolute or cumulative basis or on the basis of percentage of improvement over time, and may be measured in terms of Company performance (or performance of the applicable Subsidiary, division, department, region, function or business unit) or measured relative to selected peer companies or a market index.

B-9

The Grantees will be designated, and the applicable performance targets will be established, by the Committee within ninety (90) days following the commencement of the applicable performance period (or such earlier or later date permitted or required by Section 162(m) of the Code). Each Grantee will be assigned a target number of shares of Stock payable if performance targets are achieved. Any payment of a Grant with performance targets shall be conditioned on the written certification of the Committee in each case that the performance targets and any other material conditions were satisfied. The Committee may determine, at the time a Grant is made, that if performance exceeds the specified performance targets, the Grant may be settled with payment greater than the target number of shares of Stock, but in no event may such payment exceed the limits set forth in Section 7.1. The Committee retains the right to reduce any Grant if it believes that individual performance does not warrant the Grant calculated by reference to the result. In the event that all members of the Committee are not “outside directors” as that term is defined in Section 162(m) of the Code, the grant and terms of Grants intended to qualify as “performance-based compensation” will be made, and the Grant will be administered, by a subcommittee of the Committee or the Board of Directors consisting of two or more “outside directors” for purposes of Section 162(m) of the Code.

12.4 Restricted Stock Certificates.

The Company shall issue, in the name of each Grantee to whom Restricted Stock has been granted, stock certificates representing the total number of shares of Restricted Stock granted to the Grantee, as soon as reasonably practicable after the Grant Date. The Secretary of the Company shall hold such certificates for the Grantee’s benefit until such time as the Restricted Stock is forfeited to the Company, or the restrictions lapse.

12.5 Rights of Holders of Restricted Stock.

Unless the Board otherwise provides in an Award Agreement, holders of Restricted Stock shall have the right to vote such Stock and the right to receive any dividends declared or paid with respect to such Stock. The Board may provide that any dividends paid on Restricted Stock must be reinvested in shares of Stock, which may or may not be subject to the same vesting conditions and restrictions applicable to such Restricted Stock. All distributions, if any, received by a Grantee with respect to Restricted Stock as a result of any stock split, stock dividend, combination of shares, or other similar transaction shall be subject to the restrictions applicable to the original Grant.

12.6 Rights of Holders of Restricted Stock Units.

Unless the Board otherwise provides in an Award Agreement, holders of Restricted Stock Units shall have no rights as stockholders of the Company. The Board may provide in an Award Agreement evidencing a Grant of Restricted Stock Units that the holder of such Restricted Stock Units shall be entitled to receive, upon the Company’s payment of a cash dividend on its outstanding Stock, a cash payment for each Restricted Stock Unit held equal to the per-share dividend paid on the Stock. Such Award Agreement may also provide that such cash payment will be deemed reinvested in additional Restricted Stock Units at a price per unit equal to the Fair Market Value of a share of Stock on the date that such dividend is paid.

12.7 Termination of Employment or Other Relationship.

Upon the termination of the employment of a Grantee with the Company or a Service Provider or of a Service Provider’s relationship with the Company, in either case other than, in the case of individuals, by reason of death or “permanent and total disability” (within the meaning of Section 22(e)(3) of the Code), any shares of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units held by such Grantee that have not vested, or with respect to which all applicable restrictions and conditions have not lapsed, shall immediately be deemed forfeited, unless the Board, in its discretion, determines otherwise. Upon forfeiture of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units, the Grantee shall have no further rights with respect to such Grant, including but not limited to any right to vote Restricted Stock or any right to receive dividends with respect to shares of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units.

B-10

Whether a leave of absence or leave on military or government service shall constitute a termination of employment or other relationship for purposes of the Plan shall be determined by the Board, which determination shall be final and conclusive. For purposes of the Plan, a termination of employment, service or other relationship shall not be deemed to occur if the Grantee is immediately thereafter employed with the Company or any other Service Provider, or is engaged as a Service Provider or an Outside Director of the Company. Whether a termination of a Service Provider’s or an Outside Director’s relationship with the Company shall have occurred shall be determined by the Committee, which determination shall be final and conclusive.

12.8 Rights in the Event of Death.

If a Grantee dies while employed by the Company or a Service Provider, or while serving as a Service Provider, all Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units granted to such Grantee shall fully vest on the date of death, and the shares of Stock represented thereby shall be deliverable in accordance with the terms of the Plan to the executors, administrators, legatees or distributees of the Grantee’s estate.

12.9 Rights in the Event of Disability.

If a Grantee’s employment or other relationship with the Company or a Service Provider, or while serving as a Service Provider, is terminated by reason of the “permanent and total disability” (within the meaning of Section 22(e)(3) of the Code) of such Grantee, such Grantee’s Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units shall continue to vest in accordance with the applicable Award Agreement for a period of one year after such termination of employment or service (or such longer period as the Board, in its discretion, may determine prior to the expiration of such one-year period), subject to the earlier forfeiture of such Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units in accordance with the terms of the applicable Award Agreement. Whether a termination of employment or service is to be considered by reason of “permanent and total disability” for purposes of the Plan shall be determined by the Board, which determination shall be final and conclusive.

12.10 Delivery of Stock and Payment Therefor.

Upon the expiration or termination of the Restricted Period and the satisfaction of any other conditions prescribed by the Board, the restrictions applicable to shares of Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units shall lapse, and, upon payment by the Grantee to the Company, in cash or by check, of the aggregate par value of the shares of Stock represented by such Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units, a stock certificate for such shares shall be delivered, free of all such restrictions, to the Grantee or the Grantee’s beneficiary or estate, as the case may be.

13. PARACHUTE LIMITATIONS

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Plan or of any other agreement, contract, or understanding heretofore or hereafter entered into by a Grantee with the Company or any Subsidiary, except an agreement, contract, or understanding hereafter entered into that expressly modifies or excludes application of this paragraph (an “Other Agreement”), and notwithstanding any formal or informal plan or other arrangement for the direct or indirect provision of compensation to the Grantee (including groups or classes of participants or beneficiaries of which the Grantee is a member), whether or not such compensation is deferred, is in cash, or is in the form of a benefit to or for the Grantee (a “Benefit Arrangement”), if the Grantee is a “disqualified individual,” as defined in Section 280G(c) of the Code, any Option, Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Unit held by that Grantee and any right to receive any payment or other benefit under this Plan shall not become exercisable or vested (i) to the extent that such right to exercise, vesting, payment, or benefit, taking into account all other rights, payments, or benefits to or for the Grantee under this Plan, all Other Agreements, and all Benefit Arrangements, would cause any payment or benefit to the Grantee under this Plan to be considered a “parachute payment” within the meaning of Section 280G(b)(2) of the Code as then in effect (a “Parachute Payment”) and (ii) if, as a result of receiving a Parachute Payment, the aggregate after-tax amounts received by the Grantee from the Company under this Plan, all Other Agreements, and all Benefit Arrangements would be less than the maximum after-tax

B-11

amount that could be received by the Grantee without causing any such payment or benefit to be considered a Parachute Payment. In the event that the receipt of any such right to exercise, vesting, payment, or benefit under this Plan, in conjunction with all other rights, payments, or benefits to or for the Grantee under any Other Agreement or any Benefit Arrangement would cause the Grantee to be considered to have received a Parachute Payment under this Plan that would have the effect of decreasing the after-tax amount received by the Grantee as described in clause (ii) of the preceding sentence, then the Grantee shall have the right, in the Grantee’s sole discretion, to designate those rights, payments, or benefits under this Plan, any Other Agreements, and any Benefit Arrangements that should be reduced or eliminated so as to avoid having the payment or benefit to the Grantee under this Plan be deemed to be a Parachute Payment.

14. REQUIREMENTS OF LAW

14.1 General.

The Company shall not be required to sell or issue any shares of Stock under any Grant if the sale or issuance of such shares would constitute a violation by the Grantee, any other individual exercising an Option, or the Company of any provision of any law or regulation of any governmental authority, including without limitation any federal or state securities laws or regulations. If at any time the Company shall determine, in its discretion, that the listing, registration or qualification of any shares subject to a Grant upon any securities exchange or under any governmental regulatory body is necessary or desirable as a condition of, or in connection with, the issuance or purchase of shares hereunder, no shares of Stock may be issued or sold to the Grantee or any other individual exercising an Option pursuant to such Grant unless such listing, registration, qualification, consent or approval shall have been effected or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to the Company, and any delay caused thereby shall in no way affect the date of termination of the Grant. Specifically, in connection with the Securities Act, upon the exercise of any Option or the delivery of any shares of Restricted Stock or Stock underlying Restricted Stock Units, unless a registration statement under such Act is in effect with respect to the shares of Stock covered by such Grant, the Company shall not be required to sell or issue such shares unless the Board has received evidence satisfactory to it that the Grantee or any other individual exercising an Option may acquire such shares pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act. Any determination in this connection by the Board shall be final, binding, and conclusive. The Company may, but shall in no event be obligated to, register any securities covered hereby pursuant to the Securities Act. The Company shall not be obligated to take any affirmative action in order to cause the exercise of an Option or the issuance of shares of Stock pursuant to the Plan to comply with any law or regulation of any governmental authority. As to any jurisdiction that expressly imposes the requirement that an Option shall not be exercisable until the shares of Stock covered by such Option are registered or are exempt from registration, the exercise of such Option (under circumstances in which the laws of such jurisdiction apply) shall be deemed conditioned upon the effectiveness of such registration or the availability of such an exemption.

14.2 Rule 16b-3.

During any time when the Company has a class of equity security registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act, it is the intent of the Company that Grants pursuant to the Plan and the exercise of Options granted hereunder will qualify for the exemption provided by Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act. To the extent that any provision of the Plan or action by the Board does not comply with the requirements of Rule 16b-3, it shall be deemed inoperative to the extent permitted by law and deemed advisable by the Board, and shall not affect the validity of the Plan. In the event that Rule 16b-3 is revised or replaced, the Board may exercise its discretion to modify this Plan in any respect necessary to satisfy the requirements of, or to take advantage of any features of, the revised exemption or its replacement.

14.3 Section 162(m) of the Code.

The Plan is intended to comply in all respects with Section 162(m) of the Code; provided, however, that in the event the Committee determines that compliance with Section 162(m) of the Code is not desired with respect

B-12

to a particular Grant, compliance with Section 162(m) of the Code will not be required. In addition, if any provision of this Plan would cause Grants that are intended to constitute “qualified performance-based compensation” under Section 162(m) of the Code, to fail to do so qualify, that provision shall be severed from, and shall be deemed not to be a part of, the Plan with respect to such Grant, but the other provisions hereof shall remain in full force and effect.

15. AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION OF THE PLAN

15.1 General.

The Board may, at any time and from time to time, amend, suspend, or terminate the Plan as to any shares of Stock as to which Grants have not been made; provided, however, that the Board shall not, without approval of the Company’s shareholders, amend the Plan such that it does not comply with the Code. The Company may retain the right in an Award Agreement to cause a forfeiture of the gain realized by a Grantee on account of the Grantee taking actions in “competition with the Company,” as defined in the applicable Award Agreement. Furthermore, the Company may annul a Grant if the Grantee is an employee of the Company or an affiliate and is terminated “for cause” as defined in the applicable Award Agreement. Except as permitted under this Section 15 or Section 16 hereof, no amendment, suspension, or termination of the Plan shall, without the consent of the Grantee, alter or impair rights or obligations under any Grant theretofore awarded under the Plan.

15.2 Section 409A of the Code.

Notwithstanding any contrary provision in the Plan or an Award Agreement, if any provision of the Plan or an Award Agreement contravenes any regulations or guidance promulgated under Section 409A of the Code or could cause a Grant to be subject to additional taxes, accelerated taxation, interest and/or penalties under Section 409A of the Code, such provision of the Plan or Award Agreement may be modified by the Committee without consent of the Grantee in any manner the Committee deems reasonable or necessary. In making such modifications the Committee shall attempt, but shall not be obligated, to maintain, to the maximum extent practicable, the original intent of the applicable provision without contravening the provisions of Section 409A of the Code. Moreover, any discretionary authority that the Committee may have pursuant to the Plan shall not be applicable to a Grant that is subject to Section 409A of Code to the extent such discretionary authority would contravene Section 409A of the Code or the guidance promulgated thereunder.

16. EFFECT OF CHANGES IN CAPITALIZATION

16.1 Changes in Stock.

If the number of outstanding shares of Stock is increased or decreased or the shares of Stock are changed into or exchanged for a different number or kind of shares or other securities of the Company on account of any recapitalization, reclassification, stock split, reverse split, combination of shares, exchange of shares, stock dividend or other distribution payable in capital stock, or other increase or decrease in such shares effected without receipt of consideration by the Company occurring after the Effective Date, the number and kinds of shares for which Grants of Options, Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units may be made under the Plan shall be adjusted proportionately and accordingly by the Company. In addition, the number and kind of shares for which Grants are outstanding shall be adjusted proportionately and accordingly so that the proportionate interest of the Grantee immediately following such event shall, to the extent practicable, be the same as immediately before such event. Any such adjustment in outstanding Options shall not change the aggregate Option Price payable with respect to shares that are subject to the unexercised portion of an Option outstanding but shall include a corresponding proportionate adjustment in the Option Price per share. The conversion of any convertible securities of the Company shall not be treated as an increase in shares effected without receipt of consideration.

B-13

16.2 Reorganization in Which the Company Is the Surviving Entity and in Which No Change of Control Occurs.

Subject to Section 16.3 hereof, if the Company shall be the surviving entity in any reorganization, merger, or consolidation of the Company with one or more other entities in which no Change in Control occurs, any Option theretofore granted pursuant to the Plan shall pertain to and apply to the securities to which a holder of the number of shares of Stock subject to such Option would have been entitled immediately following such reorganization, merger, or consolidation, with a corresponding proportionate adjustment of the Option Price per share so that the aggregate Option Price thereafter shall be the same as the aggregate Option Price of the shares remaining subject to the Option immediately prior to such reorganization, merger, or consolidation. Subject to any contrary language in an Award Agreement evidencing a Grant of Restricted Stock, any restrictions applicable to such Restricted Stock shall apply as well to any replacement shares received by the Grantee as a result of the reorganization, merger or consolidation.

16.3 Reorganization, Sale of Assets or Sale of Stock Which Involves a Change of Control.

Subject to the exceptions set forth in the last sentence of this Section 16.3, (i) upon the occurrence of a Change of Control, all outstanding shares of Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units shall be deemed to have vested, and all restrictions and conditions applicable to such shares of Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units shall be deemed to have lapsed, immediately prior to the occurrence of such Change of Control, and (ii) fifteen days prior to the scheduled consummation of the Change of Control, all Options outstanding hereunder shall become immediately exercisable and shall remain exercisable for a period of fifteen days. Any exercise of an Option during such fifteen-day period shall be conditioned upon the consummation of the event and shall be effective only immediately before the consummation of the event. Upon consummation of any Change of Control, the Plan and all outstanding but unexercised Options shall terminate. The Board shall send written notice of an event that will result in such a termination to all individuals who hold Options not later than the time at which the Company gives notice thereof to its shareholders. This Section 16.3 shall not apply to any Change of Control to the extent that (A) provision is made in writing in connection with such Change of Control for the continuation of the Plan or the assumption of the Options, Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units theretofore granted, or for the substitution for such Options, Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units of new options, restricted stock and restricted stock units covering the stock of a successor entity, or a parent or subsidiary thereof, with appropriate adjustments as to the number and kinds of shares or units and exercise prices, in which event the Plan and Options, Restricted Stock and Restricted Stock Units theretofore granted shall continue in the manner and under the terms so provided or (B) a majority of the full Board determines that such Change of Control shall not trigger application of the provisions of this Section 16.3 subject to Section 24.

16.4 Adjustments.

Adjustments under this Section 16 related to shares of Stock or securities of the Company shall be made by the Board, whose determination in that respect shall be final, binding and conclusive. No fractional shares or other securities shall be issued pursuant to any such adjustment, and any fractions resulting from any such adjustment shall be eliminated in each case by rounding downward to the nearest whole share.

16.5 No Limitations on Company.

The making of Grants pursuant to the Plan shall not affect or limit in any way the right or power of the Company to make adjustments, reclassifications, reorganizations, or changes of its capital or business structure or to merge, consolidate, dissolve, or liquidate, or to sell or transfer all or any part of its business or assets.

17. DISCLAIMER OF RIGHTS

No provision in the Plan or in any Grant or Award Agreement shall be construed to confer upon any individual the right to remain in the employ or service of the Company or any affiliate, or to interfere in any way

B-14

with any contractual or other right or authority of the Company or a Service Provider either to increase or decrease the compensation or other payments to any individual at any time, or to terminate any employment or other relationship between any individual and the Company. In addition, notwithstanding anything contained in the Plan to the contrary, unless otherwise stated in the applicable Award Agreement, no Grant awarded under the Plan shall be affected by any change of duties or position of the Optionee, so long as such Grantee continues to be a director, officer, consultant or employee of the Company. The obligation of the Company to pay any benefits pursuant to this Plan shall be interpreted as a contractual obligation to pay only those amounts described herein, in the manner and under the conditions prescribed herein. The Plan shall in no way be interpreted to require the Company to transfer any amounts to a third party trustee or otherwise hold any amounts in trust or escrow for payment to any participant or beneficiary under the terms of the Plan. No Grantee shall have any of the rights of a shareholder with respect to the shares of Stock subject to an Option except to the extent the certificates for such shares of Stock shall have been issued upon the exercise of the Option.

18. NONEXCLUSIVITY OF THE PLAN

Neither the adoption of the Plan nor the submission of the Plan to the shareholders of the Company for approval shall be construed as creating any limitations upon the right and authority of the Board to adopt such other incentive compensation arrangements (which arrangements may be applicable either generally to a class or classes of individuals or specifically to a particular individual or particular individuals) as the Board in its discretion determines desirable, including, without limitation, the granting of stock options otherwise than under the Plan.

19. WITHHOLDING TAXES

The Company or a Subsidiary, as the case may be, shall have the right to deduct from payments of any kind otherwise due to a Grantee any Federal, state, or local taxes of any kind required by law to be withheld with respect to the vesting of or other lapse of restrictions applicable to Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units or upon the issuance of any shares of Stock upon the exercise of an Option. At the time of such vesting, lapse, or exercise, the Grantee shall pay to the Company or the Subsidiary, as the case may be, any amount that the Company or the Subsidiary may reasonably determine to be necessary to satisfy such withholding obligation. Subject to the prior approval of the Company or the Subsidiary, which may be withheld by the Company or the Subsidiary, as the case may be, in its sole discretion, the Grantee may elect to satisfy such obligations, in whole or in part, (i) by causing the Company or the Subsidiary to withhold shares of Stock otherwise issuable to the Grantee or (ii) by delivering to the Company or the Subsidiary shares of Stock already owned by the Grantee. The shares of Stock so delivered or withheld shall have an aggregate Fair Market Value equal to such withholding obligations. The Fair Market Value of the shares of Stock used to satisfy such withholding obligation shall be determined by the Company or the Subsidiary as of the date that the amount of tax to be withheld is to be determined. A Grantee who has made an election pursuant to this Section 19 may satisfy his or her withholding obligation only with shares of Stock that are not subject to any repurchase, forfeiture, unfulfilled vesting, or other similar requirements.

20. CAPTIONS

The use of captions in this Plan or any Award Agreement is for the convenience of reference only and shall not affect the meaning of any provision of the Plan or such Award Agreement.

21. OTHER PROVISIONS

Each Grant awarded under the Plan may contain such other terms and conditions not inconsistent with the Plan as may be determined by the Board, in its sole discretion.

B-15

22. NUMBER AND GENDER

With respect to words used in this Plan, the singular form shall include the plural form, the masculine gender shall include the feminine gender, etc., as the context requires.

23. SEVERABILITY

If any provision of the Plan or any Award Agreement shall be determined to be illegal or unenforceable by any court of law in any jurisdiction, the remaining provisions hereof and thereof shall be severable and enforceable in accordance with their terms, and all provisions shall remain enforceable in any other jurisdiction.

24. POOLING

Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, if any right under or feature of the Plan would cause to be ineligible for pooling of interest accounting a transaction that would, but for the right or feature hereunder, be eligible for such accounting treatment, the Board may modify or adjust the right or feature so that the transaction will be eligible for pooling of interest accounting. Such modification or adjustment may include payment of cash or issuance to a Grantee of Stock having a Fair Market Value equal to the cash value of such right or feature.

25. GOVERNING LAW

The validity and construction of this Plan and the instruments evidencing the Grants awarded hereunder shall be governed by the laws of the State of Florida.
