Papa John's International, Inc. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)

June 28, 1998

1. Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim
financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of
Regulation S - X.  Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and
footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete
financial statements.  In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting
of normal recurring accruals, considered necessary for a fair presentation have
been included.  Operating results for the three and six months ended June 28,
1998, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the
year ended December 27, 1998.  For further information, refer to the
consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Papa
John's International, Inc. Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
December 28, 1997.

2. Advertising and Related Costs

Advertising and related costs include the costs of Company-owned restaurant
activities such as mail coupons, door hangers and promotional items and, through
December 28, 1997, Company-owned restaurant contributions to the Papa John's
Marketing Fund, Inc. (the "Marketing Fund") and local market cooperative
advertising funds as incurred. Contributions by Company-owned and franchised
restaurants to the Marketing Fund and the cooperative advertising funds are
based on an established percentage of monthly restaurant revenues. The Marketing
Fund is responsible for developing and conducting marketing and advertising for
the Papa John's system.  The local market cooperative advertising funds are
responsible for developing and conducting advertising activities in a specific
market, including the placement of electronic and print materials developed by
the Marketing Fund.  Such funds are accounted for separately and are not
included in the consolidated financial statements of the Company, except as
described below beginning with the first quarter of 1998.

Effective December 29, 1997, the Company began recognizing Company-owned
restaurant contributions to the Marketing Fund and to those local market
cooperative advertising funds deemed to be controlled by the Company
(collectively, the "Controlled Funds"), as advertising and related costs at the
time the Controlled Funds actually incurred such expenses. Through December 28,
1997, the Controlled Funds generally incurred expenses as contributions were
received; therefore, the impact of this change was not material to the Company's
first and second quarter 1998 financial statements.

3. Accounting Pronouncement

In May 1998, the Accounting Standards Executive Committee of the American
Institute of Certified Public Accountants issued Statement of Position 98-5,
"Reporting on the Costs of Start-up Activities" (the "SOP"), which will require
adoption at the beginning of 1999. The Company's initial application of the SOP
will require the write-off of deferred pre-opening costs as of the date of
adoption, and such write-off will be reported, on a net of tax basis, as the
cumulative effect of a change in accounting principle. The Company does not
expect the adoption of the SOP to materially impact future operating income.
Deferred pre-opening costs as of June 28, 1998, were $3.2 million.

4. Subsequent Event

During 1997, the Company acquired a 49% equity ownership interest in Mountain
Pizza Group, L.L.C. ("MPG"), for $150,000 in cash. In July 1998, the Company
acquired the remaining 51% for $565,000 in cash. In connection with the 
acquisition, the Company also assumed $2.4 million in MPG debt. MPG, an entity
which operates seven Papa John's restaurants in Denver, Colorado, was owned by
the President of the Company.

Results of Operations

Revenues.  Total revenues increased 28.6% to $162.3 million for the three months
ended June 28, 1998, from $126.2 million for the comparable period in 1997, and
33.6% to $315.2 million for the six months ended June 28, 1998, from $235.9
million for the comparable period in 1997.

Restaurant sales increased 25.7% to $79.9 million for the three months ended
June 28, 1998, from $63.6 million for the comparable period in 1997, and 33.8%
to $155.9 million for the six months ended June 28, 1998, from $116.5 million
for the comparable period in 1997. These increases were primarily due to
increases of 21.6% and 26.1% in the number of equivalent Company-owned
restaurants open during the three and six months ended June 28, 1998,
respectively, compared to the same periods in the prior year. "Equivalent
restaurants" represent the number of restaurants open at the beginning of a
given period, adjusted for restaurants opened, acquired, closed or sold during
the period on a weighted average basis. Also, sales increased 5.9% for the three
months ended June 28, 1998, over the comparable period in 1997, and 9.5% for the
six months ended June 28, 1998, over the comparable period in 1997, for Company-
owned restaurants open throughout both periods.

Franchise royalties increased 35.2% to $8.1 million for the three months ended
June 28, 1998, from $6.0 million for the comparable period in 1997, and 36.7% to
$15.4 million for the six months ended June 28, 1998, from $11.3 million for the
comparable period in 1997.  These increases were primarily due to increases of
28.9% and 29.1% in the number of equivalent franchised restaurants open during
the three and six months ended June 28, 1998, respectively, compared to the same
periods in the prior year.  Also, sales increased 7.8% for the three months
ended June 28, 1998, over the comparable period in 1997,and 9.1% for the six
months ended June 28, 1998, over the comparable period in 1997, for franchised
restaurants open throughout both periods.

Franchise and development fees decreased 8.6% to $1.3 million for the three
months ended June 28, 1998, from $1.4 million for the comparable period in 1997,
and 8.1% to $2.4 million for the six months ended June 28, 1998, from $2.6
million for the comparable period in 1997.  These decreases were primarily due
to the 140 franchised restaurants opened during the six months ended June 28,
1998, versus the 142 opened during the comparable 

                                       7

period in 1997, and the nature and mix of development agreements under which the
restaurants were opened. The average dollar amount of fees per franchised
restaurant opening may vary from period to period, as restaurants opened
pursuant to older development agreements and "Hometown restaurants" generally
have lower required fees than restaurants opened pursuant to more recent
development agreements. "Hometown restaurants" are located in smaller markets,
generally markets with less than 9,000 households.

Commissary sales increased 36.0% to $62.0 million for the three months ended
June 28, 1998, from $45.6 million for the comparable period in 1997, and 37.6%
to $119.6 million for the six months ended June 28, 1998, from $86.9 million for
the comparable period in 1997.  These increases were primarily the result of the
increases in equivalent franchised restaurants and comparable sales for
franchised restaurants previously noted.

Equipment and other sales increased 13.6% to $11.0 million for the three months
ended June 28, 1998, from $9.7 million for the comparable period in 1997, and
18.0% to $21.9 million for the six months ended June 28, 1998 from $18.6 million
for the comparable period in 1997.  These increases were primarily the result of
the previously noted increase in equivalent franchised restaurants and sales of
the Papa John's PROFIT System, a proprietary point of sale system, and related
PROFIT support services to franchisees.

Costs and Expenses.  Restaurant cost of sales, which consists of food, beverage
and paper costs, decreased as a percentage of restaurant sales to 25.9% for the
three months ended June 28, 1998, from 26.3% for the comparable period in 1997,
and decreased to 26.2% for the six months ended June 28, 1998, from 26.4% for
the comparable period in 1997. These decreases were primarily due to restaurant
efficiencies, partially offset by increases in the average cheese block market
prices.  Cheese, representing approximately 40% of food cost, and other 
commodities are subject to seasonal fluctuations, weather, demand and other 
factors.  Most of the factors affecting cost are beyond the control of the 
Company.  An increase in the cost of cheese, or other operating costs, could 
adversely affect profitability of the Company.

Restaurant salaries and benefits as a percentage of restaurant sales decreased
to 27.1% for the three months ended June 28, 1998, from 27.4% for the comparable
period in 1997, and decreased to 26.9% for the six months ended June 28, 1998,
from 27.2% for the comparable period in 1997, as a result of certain
efficiencies gained on a higher sales base, partially offset by an increase in
the federal minimum wage in September 1997. Occupancy costs remained relatively
consistent at 4.8% and 4.7%, respectively, for the three and six months ended
June 28, 1998, as compared to 4.8% and 4.9% for the comparable periods in 1997.

Advertising and related costs decreased to 9.0% for the three months ended June
28, 1998, from 9.4% for the comparable period in 1997, and decreased to 9.0% for
the six months ended June 28, 1998, from 9.2% for the comparable period in 1997.
This decrease is not considered unusual as advertising for the Company often
varies based on the timing of market-level promotions.

Other restaurant operating expenses decreased as a percentage of restaurant
sales to 13.1% for the three months ended June 28, 1998, from 13.3% for the
comparable period in 1997, and decreased as a percentage of restaurant sales to
13.2% for the six months ended June 28, 1998, from 13.7% for the comparable
period in 1997.  Other operating expenses include an allocation of commissary
operating expenses equal to 3% of Company-owned restaurant sales in order to
assess a portion of the costs of dough production and food and equipment
purchasing and storage to Company-owned restaurants.  The decrease in other
operating expenses as a percentage of restaurant sales was primarily due to
training efficiencies and lower worker's compensation costs.

Commissary, equipment and other expenses include cost of sales and operating
expenses associated with sales of food, paper, equipment, information systems,
and printing and promotional items to franchisees and other customers. These
costs decreased as a percentage of combined commissary sales and equipment and
other sales to 90.5% for the three months ended June 28, 1998, as compared to
92.8% for the same period in 1997, and to 91.0% for the six months ended June
28, 1998, from 91.9% for the comparable period in 1997.

Cost of sales as a percentage of combined commissary sales and equipment and
other sales decreased to 77.6% from 78.9% for the comparable period in 1997, due
to the mix of commissary sales to equipment and other sales which have a higher
margin. Cost of sales remained relatively consistent at 78.0% for the six months
ended June 28, 1998, as compared to 77.9% for the comparable period in 1997.

Salaries and benefits as a percentage of combined commissary sales and equipment
and other sales decreased to 5.6% for the three months ended June 28, 1998, from
5.8% for the comparable period in 1997 and to 5.6% for the six months ended June
28, 1998, from 5.9% for the comparable period in 1997. Other operating expenses

                                       8
<PAGE>
 
decreased to 7.2% for the three months ended and 7.4% for the six months ended
June 28, 1998, from 8.1% for the comparable periods in 1997. These decreases
were due primarily to higher costs related to the opening of two commissary
facilities in the comparable periods in 1997, as compared to one commissary
facility opened in the current comparable periods.

General and administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenues increased
to 7.6% for the three months ended June 28, 1998, from 7.4% for the comparable
period in 1997, and decreased to 7.4% for the six months ended June 28, 1998,
from 7.6% for the comparable period in 1997.  The increase for the three months
ended was due principally to the decrease in deferral of system development
costs, partially offset by the receipt of incentives under the Kentucky Jobs
Development Act (the "KJDA incentives") related to certain corporate employment
increases. The reduction in costs for the six months ended, June 28, 1998 was
due to leveraging expenses on a higher sales base and the KJDA incentives.

Depreciation and amortization were relatively consistent as a percentage of
total revenues at 3.7% and 3.8%, respectively, for the three and six months
ended June 28, 1998, as compared to 3.8% and 3.7% for the comparable periods in
1997.

Investment Income.  Investment income increased to $1.2 million for the three
months ended June 28, 1998, from $1.1 million for the comparable period in 1997,
and remained consistent at $2.2 million for the six months ended June 28, 1998,
and the comparable period in 1997 due to relatively consistent invested balances
and yields.

Income Tax Expense.  Income tax expense reflects a combined federal, state and
local effective tax rate of 37% for the three and six months ended June 28, 1998
and June 29, 1997, representing statutory rates applied to pre-tax income as
adjusted by the impact of tax-exempt investment income and other items.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The Company requires capital primarily for the development and acquisition of
restaurants, the addition of new commissary and support services facilities and
equipment, the enhancement of corporate systems and facilities, and the funding
of franchisee loans. Capital expenditures of $27.8 million and loans to
franchisees of $1.7 million (net of repayments) for the six months ended June
28, 1998, were funded by cash flow from operations.

Cash flow from operations increased to $30.0 million for the six months ended
June 28, 1998, from $15.9 million for the comparable period in 1997, due
primarily to the higher level of net income for the first six months of 1998 and
changes in working capital.

In addition to restaurant development and potential acquisitions, significant
capital projects for the next 12 months are expected to include the development
of  full-service commissaries in Dallas, Texas and Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania by
mid-1999.  In early-1999, the Company also expects to open a 240,000 square foot
facility in Louisville, Kentucky, approximately 40% of which will accommodate
relocation and expansion of the Louisville commissary operations and Novel
Approach promotional division, and the remainder of which will accommodate
relocation and consolidation of corporate offices.

The Company has been approved to receive up to $21.0 million in incentives under
the Kentucky Jobs Development Act in connection with the relocation of the
corporate offices.  Based upon the expected timing of completion of the
facility, the Company expects to earn approximately $14.0 million of such
incentives through 2007.

Additionally, during the remainder of 1998 the Company expects to fund up to
$2.3 million in additional loans under existing franchisee loan program
commitments.  Approximately $16.8 million was outstanding under this program as
of June 28, 1998. The Company does not expect to significantly expand the
program beyond existing commitments.

Capital resources available at June 28, 1998, include $24.1 million of cash and
cash equivalents, $59.9 million of investments and $8.2 million under a line of
credit expiring in June 1999. The  Company expects to fund planned capital
expenditures for the next twelve months from these resources and operating cash
flows.

                        PAPA JOHN'S INTERNATIONAL, INC.
                      1993 STOCK OWNERSHIP INCENTIVE PLAN


     A.  Papa John's International, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Company"), 
has adopted, and the stockholders of the Company have approved, the Papa John's 
International, Inc. 1993 Stock Ownership Incentive Plan ("Plan").

     B.  The Company desires to increase the number of shares of Common Stock 
reserved for issuance under the Plan.

     NOW THEREFORE, the Plan is hereby amended as follows:

     1. AMENDMENT OF PLAN.  Section 4.1 of the Plan is hereby deleted and the 
following substituted in its place:

           "4.1 Number of Shares. Subject to adjustment as provided in Section
           4.3 the number of shares of Common Stock reserved for issuance under
           the Plan is 6,000,000. Any Common Stock issued under the Plan may
           consist, in whole or in part, of authorized and unissued shares or
           treasury shares. If and to the extent an Award shall expire or
           terminate for any reason without having been exercised in full
           (including a cancellation and regrant of an Option), or shall be
           forfeited, without, in either case, the Participant having realized
           any of the economic benefits of a shareholder (such as the receipt of
           dividends or other distributions paid on shares of Restricted Stock),
           the shares (including Restricted Stock) associated with such Awards
           shall again become available for Awards under the Plan."

     2. CONTINUATION OF BALANCE OF PLAN.  Except as amended hereby, the Plan is
unchanged and remains in full force and effect.

     3. GOVERNING LAW.  This Amendment shall be governed by, and construed in 
accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware without regard to its 
conflict of laws rules.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Amendment has been adopted by the Company as of 
the 21st day of May, 1998.
