Human Resources: Quiznos Selects Halogen for Fresh Approach to Talent Management

OTTAWA, ON – March 17, 2008 – Halogen Software Inc., a leading provider of
web-based employee performance and talent management software, today
announced that it has been selected by Quiznos to provide a system for its
employees at the company's Denver-based headquarters. Quiznos is a
national chain with over 5000 franchise restaurants, designed for today's
busy consumers who are looking for a tasty, fresher alternative to traditional
fast food restaurants. The company is consistently ranked as a top
restaurant chain and receives high marks for its customer service, facilities
and food offerings. Halogen Software makes powerful, simple-to-use and
affordable employee performance and talent management applications, which
make HR best-practices accessible to companies of all sizes.

As a growing company, Quiznos' leadership places a strong emphasis on the
employee performance and talent management process, aligning employees to
corporate initiatives and target metrics. In the past, the process was
inconsistent for different parts of the business and time intensive to conduct
using paper-based tools.

"We were using a manual system, and with a quarterly review process, we
were spending hours coordinating, chasing paper and ensuring everyone was
doing what they were supposed to," explained Lyssa Marie Hansard, Director,
Compensation and HR Systems, Quiznos. "In conducting reviews and planning
for succession, we need to ensure employees, managers and executives are
getting the information and results they need. We selected Halogen based on
the solution's proven ability to not only streamline the process, but to enable
us to drive more value out of our employee performance management."

Cynthia Baxter-Diggles, Senior Director of Human Resources says, "Using the
Halogen system has made our process more structured and efficient. This has
allowed managers and HR business partners to spend time on value-added
activities like training, communications, calibration and follow-up on
performance."
