The Company has made these materials available to you on the Internet or, upon your request, has delivered printed copies to you by mail or electronic versions by e-mail. The Company will pay the expenses of solicitation of Proxies. We will request banks, brokers and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries to solicit Proxies from their customers and will reimburse those banks, brokers and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries for reasonable out-of-pocket costs for this solicitation. Further solicitation of Proxies may be made by mail, personal interview and/or telephone by officers, directors and other employees of the Company, none of whom will receive additional compensation for assisting with the solicitation.

DOMINO’S PIZZA, INC. 2017 PROXY STATEMENT 3 |  |

##### Table of Contents

Voting Information |  |

Record Date, Issued and Outstanding Shares

The record date for the determination of shareholders entitled to notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting was the close of business on March 1, 2017 (the “Record Date”). On the Record Date, there were 48,035,597 shares of common stock, $0.01 par value per share, the Company’s only voting securities, outstanding and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. Each share of common stock is entitled to one vote.

Quorum Requirement

Under the Company’s By-Laws, the holders of a majority of the shares of common stock outstanding and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting constitute a quorum for the transaction of business at the Annual Meeting. Shares of common stock represented in person or by proxy, including shares that abstain or do not vote with respect to one or more of the matters presented for shareholder approval, will be counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present.

Voting Procedures

The holders of common stock are entitled to one vote per share on any proposal presented at the Annual Meeting. Only shareholders of record at the close of business on the Record Date are entitled to notice of and to vote at the Annual Meeting and any adjournment thereof. Shareholders may choose to vote by any of the following methods: (i) by returning the enclosed Proxy card, (ii) electronically by accessing the Internet site or by using the toll-free telephone number, both of which are stated on the form of Proxy, or (iii) by attending the Annual Meeting and voting in person.

All properly executed Proxies received by mail, and properly authenticated electronic votes recorded through the Internet or by telephone, will be voted as directed by the shareholder. All properly executed Proxies received by mail that do not specify how shares should be voted will be voted in accordance with the Board’s recommendation (“FOR” the election of all Director nominees under Proposal One, “FOR” Proposals Two and Three, “ONE YEAR” for Proposal Four and “AGAINST” Proposal Five).

Revocation of Proxies

Any Proxy given pursuant to this solicitation may be revoked at any time before it is voted by: (i) signing and returning a new Proxy card with a later date, (ii) submitting a later-dated vote by telephone or via the Internet (only your latest telephone or Internet vote received by 11:59 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time on April 24, 2017 will be counted), (iii) filing with our Corporate Secretary a written notice of revocation dated later than the date of the Proxy being revoked, or (iv) attending the Annual Meeting and revoking or voting in person. Any written notice of revocation should be sent to: Corporate Secretary, Domino’s Pizza, Inc., 30 Frank Lloyd Wright Drive, Ann Arbor, Michigan 48105.

The Internet and telephone procedures for voting and for revoking or changing a vote are designed to authenticate shareholders’ identities, to allow shareholders to give their voting instructions and to confirm that shareholders’ instructions have been properly recorded. Shareholders that vote through the Internet should understand that there may be costs associated with electronic access, such as usage charges from Internet access providers and telephone companies, which will be borne by the shareholder.

Broker Non-Votes

Brokers are subject to the rules of the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”). The NYSE rules direct that certain matters submitted to a vote of shareholders are “routine” items and brokers generally may vote on behalf of beneficial owners who have not furnished voting instructions, subject to the rules of the NYSE concerning transmission of proxy materials to beneficial owners, and subject to any proxy voting policies and procedures of those brokerage firms. Brokers who hold shares in “street name” for customers who are beneficial owners of such shares are prohibited from giving a proxy to vote such customers’ shares on “non-routine” matters in the absence of specific instructions from such customers.

Under current NYSE rules, we believe Proposal Two is a routine matter. Accordingly, if your broker holds shares that you own in street name, the broker may vote your shares on Proposal Two even if the broker does not receive instructions

|  | 4 DOMINO’S PIZZA, INC. 2017 PROXY STATEMENT

##### Table of Contents

Voting Information (continued) |  |

from you. We believe Proposal One, Proposal Three, Proposal Four and Proposal Five are non-routine matters and, therefore, the broker may not vote your shares on such proposals without receiving instructions from you. If your broker does not vote on a proposal, this is commonly referred to as a “broker non-vote.” Broker non-votes will not be counted as having been voted in person or by proxy, but pursuant to Delaware corporate law, will be counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present.

Votes Required

Under Proposal One, Directors are elected by a plurality of the votes of the shares of common stock represented and voted at the Annual Meeting. If you withhold your vote for a particular nominee, then your vote will not count “FOR” such nominee. Broker non-votes and votes withheld will not be treated as votes cast with respect to the election of Directors and, therefore, will have no effect on the outcome of the election of Directors.

In addition, we have implemented a Majority Voting Policy for uncontested director elections (elections in which the number of nominees for election does not exceed the number of directors to be elected). In the event that the votes “WITHHELD” from a nominee’s election exceed the votes cast “FOR” that nominee’s election, such nominee shall be required to submit his or her resignation to the Board of Directors for consideration. The Board of Directors will then have the opportunity to determine whether to accept or reject such tendered resignation. The Board of Directors, in making its decision, may consider any factors or other information that it considers appropriate or relevant.

The Board of Directors will act within 120 days following certification of the shareholder vote. Thereafter, the Board of Directors will promptly publicly disclose, in a report furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), its decision regarding the tendered resignation, including its rationale for accepting or rejecting the tendered resignation. The Board of Directors may accept a Director’s resignation or reject the resignation. If the Board of Directors accepts a Director’s resignation, or if a nominee for Director is not elected and the nominee is not an incumbent Director, then the Board of Directors, in its sole discretion, may fill any resulting vacancy or may decrease the size of the Board of Directors, in each case pursuant to our Bylaws. If a Director’s resignation is not accepted by the Board of Directors, such Director will continue to serve until the next annual meeting of shareholders and until his or her successor is duly elected, or his or her earlier resignation or removal.

Approval of Proposal Two (ratification of independent registered public accountants), Proposal Three (say-on-pay) and Proposal Five (shareholder proposal regarding deforestation) requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares voted in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting. For Proposal Four, the frequency receiving a plurality of shares voted in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting will be taken into consideration by the Board of Directors in determining how often an advisory vote on executive compensation will be submitted to shareholders in the future. Broker non-votes, if any, and abstentions will not be treated as votes cast with respect to these proposals and, therefore, will have no effect on the outcome of the votes.

No matter is currently expected to be considered at the Annual Meeting other than those listed in this Proxy Statement. If any other matters are properly brought before the Annual Meeting for action, it is intended that the persons named in the proxy and acting thereunder will vote in accordance with their discretion on such matters.

DOMINO’S PIZZA, INC. 2017 PROXY STATEMENT 5 |  |

##### Table of Contents

Proposal One: Election of Directors |  |

At our 2015 annual meeting of shareholders, our shareholders authorized the Board of Directors to amend the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation to declassify the Board and to require that all Directors stand for annual election. Accordingly, this year we are asking our shareholders to re-elect the eight individuals listed below to terms ending with the 2018 annual meeting of shareholders, until his or her successor is elected or qualified or until his or her earlier death, resignation or removal. Each nominee is currently serving as a Director and has indicated his or her willingness to continue to serve, if elected. However, if a nominee should be unable to serve, the shares of common stock represented by Proxies may be voted for a substitute nominee designated by the Board. Management has no reason to believe that any of the above-mentioned persons will not serve his or her term as a Director.

Board Membership Criteria

Although our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee does not have any specific, delineated qualifications for the nomination of Director candidates, the Committee takes into account a number of factors, qualifications and skills that it deems appropriate, with the primary goal of ensuring the Board collectively serves the interest of shareholders. The Company and the Board, at a minimum, seek to have Directors with sound business judgment, wisdom and knowledge in his or her field of expertise. Identified and described below are additional key experiences, qualifications and skills that are important to the Company’s business and that were considered in the selection of the Directors, which factors may change from time to time. Director candidates are also evaluated according to the qualifications set forth in the Board’s Corporate Governance Principles, as further described beginning on page 12.

• |  | Business experience. The Company and the Board believe that the Company benefits from nominating Directors with a substantial degree of business experience. This may include accomplishments in his or her particular field of practice, and a history of achievements that reflect his or her high standards and sound business decisions.

• |  | Leadership experience. The Company and the Board believe that Directors with experience in significant leadership positions over an extended period, especially President or Chief Executive Officer positions, provide the Company with strategic insights. These Directors generally possess superior leadership qualities and the ability to identify and develop those qualities in others. They demonstrate a practical understanding of organizations, long-term strategy, risk management and the methods to drive change and growth.

• |  | Finance experience. The Company and the Board believe an understanding of finance and financial reporting processes is an important skill for our Directors. The Company uses financial measures to evaluate its performance as well as its accomplishment of financial performance targets. In addition, the Board and the Audit Committee oversee the required public disclosures of the Company that includes financial statements and related information.

• |  | Educational and industry experience. The Company and the Board seek to have directors with relevant education, business expertise and experience as executives, directors, investors or in other leadership positions in the retail sector, including the restaurant industry.

Corporate Governance Principles and Director Information |  |

Domino’s Pizza has a commitment to strong corporate governance practices. These practices provide a framework within which the Company’s Board and management can pursue the strategic objectives of Domino’s Pizza and ensure its long-term growth for the benefit of shareholders. The Company’s corporate governance principles and practices are reviewed annually by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and any changes are recommended to the Board for approval. The Company’s Corporate Governance Principles are posted on Domino’s corporate and investor website biz.dominos.com under the Investors—Profile—Corporate Governance section and are available free of charge upon request from the Company’s Corporate Secretary. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee Charter, the Compensation Committee Charter and the Audit Committee Charter are also posted on the Company’s corporate and investor website (“Investors—Profile—Corporate Governance” section on biz.dominos.com). All the referenced charters and the other documents referenced herein are available free of charge upon request from the Company’s Corporate Secretary.

The Corporate Governance Principles and the Charter of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee set forth the Company’s policies with respect to Board structure, membership (including nominee qualifications), performance, operations and management oversight. Pursuant to the Corporate Governance Principles, the Board meets at least quarterly in an independent director session, an executive session and in a non-management executive session. The current discussion leader for executive session is generally Mr. Brandon and the current discussion leader for the independent Director session is generally Mr. Balson. The independent Directors meet separately at each quarterly Board meeting.

The entire Board of Directors is engaged in risk management oversight. At the present time, the Board has not established a separate committee to facilitate its risk oversight responsibilities. The Board will continue to monitor and assess whether such a committee would be appropriate. In accordance with NYSE listed company rules, the Audit Committee assists the Board of Directors in its oversight of Domino’s Pizza’s company-wide risk management and the process established to identify, measure, monitor, and manage risks, in particular major financial risks. The Board of Directors receives regular reports from management, as well as from the Audit Committee and other standing committees regarding relevant risks and the actions taken by management to address those risks.

The Company is required to have a majority of its Board be independent Directors. The Company’s Corporate Governance Principles contain the Company’s standards for director independence. A Director will be designated as independent if he or she (i) has no material relationship with the Company or its subsidiaries, (ii) satisfies the other criteria specified by NYSE listed company rules, (iii) has no business conflict with the Company or its subsidiaries, and (iv) otherwise meets applicable independence criteria specified by law, regulation, exchange requirement or the Board. The Board has affirmatively determined that the following Directors who served in the 2016 fiscal year were independent under that definition:

C. Andrew Ballard

Andrew B. Balson

Diana F. Cantor

Richard L. Federico

James A. Goldman

Vernon “Bud” O. Hamilton (retired)

Gregory A. Trojan

The Corporate Governance Principles further provide that the Directors are invited and expected to attend the Company’s annual meetings of shareholders. All Directors serving at the time of the 2016 annual meeting of shareholders attended the meeting.

The Company has adopted a Code of Professional Conduct for Senior Financial Officers that applies to all executive officers of the Company, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as well as all of the Company’s other financial officers and other employees with senior financial roles. In addition, the Company has adopted a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics for Directors, Officers and Employees that applies to all Directors, officers and employees. The Code of Professional Conduct and the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics are posted on the Company’s corporate

and investor website (“Investors—Profile—Corporate Governance” section on biz.dominos.com). The Company intends to satisfy the disclosure requirement regarding any amendment to, or waiver of, a provision of the Code of Professional Conduct for the Chief Executive Officer, Chief Financial Officer, Corporate Controller or persons performing similar functions, by posting such information on its website.

A total of five meetings of the Board of Directors of the Company were held during 2016, and the Board acted via unanimous written consent on one other occasion. Each Director attended at least 75% of the aggregate of (i) the total number of meetings of the Board, and (ii) the total number of meetings held by all committees of the Board on which that Director served during the period each served as a Director.

In accordance with NYSE requirements, the Board has a Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, a Compensation Committee and an Audit Committee, all of which are comprised solely of “independent” Directors, as defined by Section 303A of the NYSE listed company rules and other applicable independence standards. Each committee of the Board has designated responsibilities and regularly reports on their activities to the entire Board.

The Company’s current leadership structure, as established in March 2010, separates the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer roles into two positions. David A. Brandon is the Chairman of the Board and J. Patrick Doyle is the Chief Executive Officer. The Company has determined what leadership structure it deems appropriate based on factors such as the experience of the applicable individuals, the current business environment of the Company, and other relevant criteria. After considering these factors, the Company determined that separating the positions of Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer is the appropriate leadership structure. The Chief Executive Officer is responsible for the strategic direction of the Company and the day-to-day leadership and performance of the Company, while the Chairman of the Board provides guidance to the Chief Executive Officer, sets the agenda for the Board meetings and presides over meetings of the Board. The Company and the Board believe that this is appropriate under current circumstances, because it allows management to make the operating decisions necessary to manage the business, while helping to keep a measure of independence between the oversight function of our Board of Directors and operating decisions. The Company and the Board feel that this division provides an appropriate balance of operational focus, flexibility and oversight.

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee

The members of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee are Messrs. Goldman (Chairperson) and Trojan and Ms. Cantor. The independence of each member of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is determined annually by the full Board of Directors in accordance with Section 303A.05 of the NYSE listed company rules. The Board of Directors has determined that each member of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is independent.

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee met two times during 2016. A Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee Charter, as approved by the Board, can be found on the Company’s corporate and investor website (“Investors—Profile—Corporate Governance” section on biz.dominos.com).

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee’s functions include assisting the Board in determining the desired qualifications of Directors, identifying potential individuals meeting those qualifications, proposing to the Board a slate of nominees for election by the shareholders and reviewing candidates nominated by shareholders. In addition, further functions include reviewing the succession planning process for senior management of the Company, reviewing the Corporate Governance Principles, making recommendations to the Board with respect to other corporate governance principles applicable to the Company, recommending Directors to serve on committees, overseeing the determinations of director independence, overseeing the annual evaluation of the Board and management and reviewing Board succession plans.

Evaluation of Director Candidates. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee meets regularly to discuss, among other things, identification and evaluation of potential candidates for nomination as a Director. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may use a paid outside search firm or tools to identify possible Directors. In

DOMINO’S PIZZA, INC. 2017 PROXY STATEMENT 11 |  |

##### Table of Contents

Corporate Governance Principles and Director Information (continued) |  |

addition to the experience, qualifications and skills for Directors listed under Proposal One, Director candidates will be evaluated according to the qualifications as set forth in the Board’s Corporate Governance Principles, including the following desirable characteristics:

• |  | High personal and professional ethics, integrity and values;

• |  | Possession of a range of talents, skills and expertise to provide sound and prudent guidance with respect to the operations and interests of the Company;

• |  | Expertise that is useful to the Company and complementary to the background and experience of other Board members;

• |  | Ability to devote the time necessary for the diligent performance of the duties and responsibilities of Board membership;

• |  | Commitment to serve on the Board over a period of several years to develop knowledge about the Company and its operations;

• |  | Willingness to represent the long-term interests of all shareholders and objectively appraise management’s performance; and

• |  | Board diversity and other relevant factors as the Board may determine.

Board Diversity. While the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee does not have a written policy regarding diversity in identifying director candidates, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee considers diversity in its search for the best candidates to serve on the Board of Directors. The Committee looks to incorporate diversity into the Board through a number of demographics, skills, experiences (including operational experience) and viewpoints, all with a view to identify candidates that can assist the Board with its decision making. The Committee believes that the current Board of Directors reflects diversity on a number of these factors.

Shareholder Submission of Director Nominees. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider nominees recommended by shareholders for the 2018 annual meeting of shareholders, provided that the names of such nominees are submitted in writing, not later than February 24, 2018, to the Corporate Secretary of Domino’s Pizza, Inc. at 30 Frank Lloyd Wright Drive, Ann Arbor, Michigan 48105. Each such submission must include a statement of the qualifications of the nominee, a consent signed by the nominee evidencing a willingness to serve as a Director, if elected, and a commitment by the nominee to meet personally with the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee members.

Other than the submission requirements set forth above, there are no differences in the manner in which the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee evaluates a nominee for Director recommended by a shareholder.

Compensation Committee

The members of the Compensation Committee are Messrs. Balson (Chairperson), Ballard and Federico. The independence of each member of the Compensation Committee is determined annually by the Board of Directors in accordance with Section 303A.05 of the NYSE listed company rules. The Board of Directors has determined that each member of the Compensation Committee is independent.

The Compensation Committee met three times during 2016, and acted via unanimous written consent on three other occasions, to conduct its required business in accordance with the Compensation Committee Charter. The Compensation Committee Charter authorizes the Compensation Committee to delegate any of its responsibilities to one or more subcommittees. The Compensation Committee Charter, as approved by the Board, reflects the Compensation Committee’s responsibilities, and the Compensation Committee reviews the charter at least once annually. The charter was last reviewed in July 2016 and can be found on the Company’s corporate and investor website (“Investors—Corporate Governance” section on biz.dominos.com).

The Compensation Committee’s functions include examining the levels and methods of compensation employed by the Company with respect to the Chief Executive Officer and other executive officers, making recommendations with respect

to other executive officer compensation, reviewing and approving the compensation package of the Chief Executive Officer, making recommendations to the Board with respect to Director compensation, making recommendations to the Board with respect to incentive compensation plans and equity-based plans, making plan administration and compensation decisions under equity compensation plans approved by the Board, and implementing and administering one or more incentive bonus plans, subject to shareholder approval, that will qualify as compensation paid thereunder as “performance-based compensation” within the meaning of Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Section 162(m)”).

Audit Committee

The members of the Audit Committee are Ms. Cantor (Chairperson) and Messrs. Goldman and Trojan. The independence of each member of the Audit Committee is determined annually by the full Board of Directors in accordance with Section 303A.05 of the NYSE listed company rules, the Exchange Act and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended. The Board of Directors has determined that each member of the Audit Committee is independent. Additionally, the Board has determined that each member of the Audit Committee is financially literate as required by Section 303A.07(a) of the NYSE listed company rules, and two of its members, Ms. Cantor and Mr. Trojan, are audit committee financial experts under Item 407(d)(5) of Regulation S-K.

The Audit Committee met five times during 2016. The Audit Committee Charter, as approved by the Board, can be found on the Company’s corporate and investor website (“Investors—Profile—Corporate Governance” section on biz.dominos.com). The Audit Committee’s functions include: (i) providing assistance to the Board in fulfilling its oversight responsibility relating to the Company’s financial statements and the financial reporting process, compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, the qualifications and independence of the Company’s independent registered public accountants, the Company’s system of internal controls, the internal audit function and the Company’s code of ethical conduct, (ii) retaining and, if appropriate, terminating the independent registered public accountants, and (iii) approving audit and non-audit services to be performed by the independent registered public accountants.

This policy can be found on the Company’s corporate and investor website (“Investors—Profile—Corporate Governance” section on biz.dominos.com).

Audit Committee Report |  |

The following Report of the Audit Committee does not constitute soliciting material and should not be deemed filed or incorporated by reference into any other Company filing under the Securities Act of 1933 or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, except to the extent the Company specifically incorporates this Report.

The Audit Committee is governed by a written charter which was adopted by the Company’s Board of Directors and is reviewed annually by the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee is responsible for overseeing the quality and integrity of the Company’s accounting, auditing, financial reporting and internal control practices. The Audit Committee is responsible for, in addition to other activities, the appointment, retention and compensation of the Company’s independent registered public accountants. The Audit Committee has a policy with respect to the pre-approval of non-audit services.

Each member of the Audit Committee is independent as required under the NYSE listed company rules, including those rules applicable to audit committee members. The Board has determined that two of its independent members during 2016, Ms. Cantor and Mr. Trojan, were audit committee financial experts under Item 407(d)(5) of Regulation S-K. The Audit Committee met five times during 2016.

In performing its responsibilities, the Audit Committee, in addition to other activities; (i) reviewed and discussed the Company’s audited financial statements with management, (ii) discussed with PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, the Company’s independent registered public accountants, the matters required to be discussed by Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (“PCAOB”) AS 1301 (Communications With Audit Committees), as modified or supplemented, and (iii) received the letter from PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP required by the PCAOB regarding the independent accountants’ communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence and discussed with PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP the firm’s independence. Based on these reviews, discussions and activities, the Committee recommended to the Board of Directors that the audited financial statements be included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2016 for filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

The Audit Committee considered whether the provision of non-audit services by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP was compatible with maintaining such firm’s independence. After reviewing the services provided by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, including all non-audit services, the Audit Committee, in accordance with its charter, authorized the reappointment of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as the independent registered public accountants of the Company, with such reappointment to be ratified by the shareholders at the Annual Meeting.

Respectfully submitted,

Audit Committee

Proposal Two: Ratification of Independent Registered Public Accountants |  |

The Company’s Audit Committee has selected PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as the independent registered public accountants of the Company for the current fiscal year. Management expects that representatives of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP will be present at the Annual Meeting with the opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so and will be available to respond to appropriate questions.

The affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the votes cast at the meeting in person or by proxy is necessary to ratify the selection of the Company’s independent registered public accountants for the current year. Under applicable law, listed company rules and the Company’s By-Laws, abstentions are not counted as votes cast and will have no effect on the outcome of the vote. Unless otherwise indicated, the persons named in the Proxy will vote all Proxies in favor of ratification. If the selection of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP is not ratified, the Audit Committee will reconsider the selection of independent registered public accountants.

Even if the selection of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP is ratified by shareholders, the Audit Committee, in its discretion, could decide to terminate the engagement of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP and to engage another firm if the Committee determines such action to be necessary or desirable. Conversely, if the selection of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP is not ratified by shareholders, the Audit Committee, in its discretion, could still decide to engage PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP for the 2017 audit if the Company determines such action to be necessary or desirable.

Our Board of Directors Unanimously Recommends a Vote FOR Ratification of the Selection of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLC as the Independent Registered Public Accountants of the Company for the 2017 Fiscal Year |  |  |  |

Executive Summary

Domino’s Pizza’s objective is to be a worldwide leader in the pizza industry and one of the top restaurant brands in the world. To accomplish this, the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors believes that Domino’s must recruit and retain qualified and high-performing executives to help attain the Company’s business goals and objectives, and we have established short and long-term compensation programs that we believe support this mission.

The Compensation Discussion and Analysis describes the Company’s executive compensation program, philosophy and objectives as they relate to our 2016 named executive officers listed below:

• |  | J. Patrick Doyle: President and Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”)

• |  | Russell J. Weiner: President-Domino’s USA

• |  | Richard E. Allison, Jr.: President-Domino’s International

• |  | Jeffrey D. Lawrence: Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer (“Chief Financial Officer”)

• |  | Judith L. Werthauser: Executive Vice President and Chief People Officer (“Chief People Officer”)

The Company’s performance during fiscal 2016, and for the three-year period ending with fiscal 2016, demonstrated significantly improved financial results and a corresponding strong growth in the Company’s stock price.

2016 Key Performance and Compensation Highlights. Key events with respect to the Company’s 2016 compensation program are as follows:

• |  | Base salaries of the named executive officers who received an adjustment in fiscal 2016 increased, on average, 5.275%;

• |  | For performance periods commencing in 2016, the designs of the Domino’s Pizza Senior Executive Annual Incentive Plan (the “AIP”) and the Amended Domino’s Pizza 2004 Equity Incentive Plan (the “EIP”) were modified in December 2015, as follows:

| - |  | With respect to the AIP, the Company eliminated the mid-year measurement period and payout, and increased the performance threshold from 85% of the full-year performance target to 90% of the full-year performance target; and

| - |  | With respect to the EIP, the Company increased the vesting performance threshold for performance shares from 85% of the full-year performance target to 90% of the full-year performance target;

• |  | Outcomes under the incentive plans for performance periods ending during 2016 were above target, reflecting industry-leading financial results; and

• |  | The 2016 performance in relation to the AIP (based on adjusted net segment income) was achieved at 106.06% of target, resulting in a payout of awards at 160.6% of target.

Compensation Discussion and Analysis (continued) |  |

Compensation Program Overview

The Compensation Committee is responsible for determining the compensation of our executive officers and administering the cash incentive and equity-based plans in which our executive officers, Directors and other employees participate. The goal of the Company’s compensation program is to attract, motivate and retain talented individuals to help us attain our business goals and objectives. We are committed to achieving long-term, sustainable growth and increasing shareholder value. Our compensation programs for named executive officers are designed to be compatible with and to enhance these commitments, as well as to encourage strong financial performance on both an annual and long-term basis.

The Compensation Committee uses total direct compensation as the primary measure of compensation for our named executive officers. The principal elements of total direct compensation for the CEO and our other named executive officers are: (i) annual base salary, (ii) annual target performance incentives under the AIP, and (iii) long-term incentive compensation consisting of stock options and performance shares granted under the EIP, as well as certain perquisites and other benefits.

Base Salary |  | + |  | Performance Incentive (cash award under AIP) |  | + |  | Long-term Incentive Compensation (performance shares and stock options under EIP) |  | = |  | TOTAL DIRECT COMPENSATION

The Compensation Committee places a significant focus on performance-based compensation, which is provided in the form of annual performance incentives under the AIP and stock options and performance shares under the EIP. For fiscal 2016, approximately 67% of the target total direct compensation for Messrs. Weiner, Allison and Lawrence is attributable to performance-based compensation, and approximately 60% of the target total direct compensation for Ms. Werthauser is attributable to performance-based compensation.

For our CEO, the Compensation Committee places even more emphasis on the performance-based components of total direct compensation, so that approximately 83% of Mr. Doyle’s target total direct compensation for fiscal 2016 is performance-based compensation. Our strong focus on performance-based compensation rewards strong Company financial performance and aligns the interests of our named executive officers with those of our shareholders.

Other aspects of the Company’s compensation program are intended to further align the interests of our named executive officers with those of our shareholders and to promote good corporate governance. These include:

• |  | Meaningful stock ownership guidelines for executives;

• |  | No obligations for the Company to provide tax gross-ups on change in control-related payments;

• |  | A cap on maximum annual performance incentives;

• |  | No special or supplemental pension or death benefits for our named executive officers;

• |  | A clawback policy on performance-based compensation for certain executive officers; and

• |  | Anti-pledging and anti-hedging provisions contained in our Insider Trading Policy.

Compensation Philosophy and Process

Compensation Committee Philosophy. The Compensation Committee determines the total direct compensation levels, the components thereof and relative weightings for our named executive officers. The Compensation Committee generally targets the 50th percentile of the applicable benchmark (i.e., peer group or broader quick service restaurant industry, as described below) when setting target total direct compensation levels for our CEO and other named executive officers. Employee performance and executive-specific considerations, actual performance related to the incentive plan measures used and stock price performance can result in our named executive officers’ actual total direct compensation being above or below the 50th percentile in any given year. Our use of peer groups and other data in making compensation decisions is described below.

DOMINO’S PIZZA, INC. 2017 PROXY STATEMENT 21 |  |

##### Table of Contents

Compensation Discussion and Analysis (continued) |  |

Compensation Setting Process. In order to evaluate and maintain the effectiveness of the Company’s current executive compensation program, the Compensation Committee annually reviews the reasonableness of executive compensation levels using independent professional compensation consultants, currently Willis Towers Watson (“WTW”), as well as public information about comparable companies within the Company’s industry, and evaluates such levels in light of individual performance as well as the Company’s growth and profitability. In making such determinations, the Compensation Committee reviews the nature and scope of each named executive officer’s responsibilities, as well as his or her effectiveness in supporting the Company’s long-term goals. The Compensation Committee attempts to set salary, annual performance incentives, long-term incentive compensation and other compensation at levels that will attract, motivate, and retain superior executive talent in a highly competitive environment.

In 2016, the Compensation Committee conducted a review of the total direct compensation of our named executive officers using data provided by WTW. The Compensation Committee generally targets the total direct compensation mix of our President-Domino’s USA, President-Domino’s International and Chief Financial Officer to be allocated equally among annual base salary (33%), annual performance incentive (33%) and long-term incentive compensation (34%), based on the grant date value of long-term incentive compensation and assuming target performance for annual performance incentives and long-term incentive compensation. For our Chief People Officer, this target mix is annual base salary (40%), annual performance incentive (20%) and long-term incentive compensation (40%), based on the grant date value of long-term incentive compensation and assuming target performance for annual performance incentives and long-term incentive compensation.

|  | 22 DOMINO’S PIZZA, INC. 2017 PROXY STATEMENT

##### Table of Contents

Compensation Discussion and Analysis (continued) |  |

As noted previously, for our CEO, the Compensation Committee places more emphasis on the performance-based components of total direct compensation so that his target mix for fiscal 2016 is generally allocated as annual base salary (17%), annual performance incentive (33%) and long-term incentive compensation (50%)%), based on the grant date value of long-term incentive compensation and assuming target performance for annual performance incentives and long-term incentive compensation. The Compensation Committee believes that, for our CEO, the proportion of his performance-based compensation as a component of total direct compensation should be greater than that of his annual base salary because performance-based compensation better serves to align our CEO’s interest with the interests of the Company’s shareholders.

For any given year, the annual base salary, annual performance incentives and long-term incentive compensation actually earned by or paid to our named executive officers may differ from the percentage allocations described above due to actual performance related to the applicable incentive plan measures and stock price performance. For fiscal 2016, the amount of annual performance incentive indicated in the Summary Compensation Table as earned by our named executive officers is greater than the respective stated target percentage due to overachievement by the Company in relation to the AIP.

Consideration of Say-On-Pay Vote and Shareholder Feedback. In evaluating the Company’s executive compensation program, the Compensation Committee also considered the results of the advisory vote on the “say-on-pay” proposal presented at the Company’s 2016 annual meeting of shareholders. At the 2016 annual meeting, 93.9% of votes cast were in support of the compensation provided to our named executive officers. In light of our shareholders’ continued support and the success of the executive compensation program, the Compensation Committee made minimal changes to the program during 2016 in response to the “say-on-pay” vote. The Compensation Committee concluded that the Company continues to provide a competitive pay-for-performance package that effectively incentivizes and retains executives. |  |

DOMINO’S PIZZA, INC. 2017 PROXY STATEMENT 23 |  |

##### Table of Contents

Compensation Discussion and Analysis (continued) |  |

In addition to considering the results of the 2016 “say-on-pay” vote as described above, the Company also engaged in discussions with certain key shareholders to solicit feedback regarding our executive compensation program. As a result of those discussions, the Compensation Committee identified select elements of the program as areas of interest to shareholders and has addressed the issues raised with respect to those areas of interest as follows:

Shareholder Area of Interest |  | How we addressed in 2016
Voting policy for Directors |  | Implemented a majority voting policy for Directors effective with the 2016 director election
Mid-year bonus payout |  | Eliminated mid-year AIP bonus payouts for executives, effective for 2016
Payout threshold for AIP |  | Increased the payout threshold for the AIP from 85% to 90% of target, effective for 2016
EIP vesting |  | Increased the vesting threshold for performance shares issued under the EIP from 85% to 90% of target, effective for 2016

Role of the Compensation Consultant. The Compensation Committee has the authority under its charter to engage the services of outside advisors, experts and others to assist the Compensation Committee and also to discontinue such services. In accordance with this authority, the Compensation Committee has engaged WTW as an independent compensation consultant to advise the Compensation Committee on matters related to executive compensation. The Company has assessed the independence of WTW pursuant to Item 407(e)(3)(iv) of Regulation S-K and concluded that no conflict of interest exists that would prevent WTW from independently representing the Compensation Committee. In 2016, WTW did not attend any Compensation Committee meetings. However, WTW prepared an executive compensation governance update that was provided to the Compensation Committee at the July 2016 meeting, and an analysis on executive competitive pay practices that was provided to the Compensation Committee at the December 2016 meeting. In addition, the Compensation Committee used WTW data in evaluating and determining our named executive officers’ total direct compensation, and the components thereof, as described below. The Compensation Committee has used, and intends to continue to use, WTW in 2017.

Benchmarking and Peer Group. The Compensation Committee evaluates executive compensation by measuring the total direct compensation of our named executive officers against benchmarks of the Company’s peer group and of other comparable companies. It conducts an annual review of executive compensation by analyzing several peer group and market surveys, including executive officer compensation studies prepared by WTW in each of 2015 and 2016 (the “WTW Studies”) which reflect relevant general industry and quick service restaurant industry compensation levels. The Compensation Committee generally uses a composite of these peer group and market surveys to determine compensation levels for our named executive officers and to determine the named executive officers’ total direct compensation and components thereof. For 2016, the Compensation Committee targeted the annual base salary for the CEO to be at the market median and total direct compensation for the CEO to be approximately 100% of the market median due to industry differences and the financial performance and other characteristics of the relevant companies as compared with the Company, as described in further detail under “Compensation of the Chief Executive Officer” below. The Compensation Committee targeted the annual base salary and total direct compensation for the other named executive officers, on average, to be within a competitive range around the market median for 2016. For 2016, the base salaries of the named executive officers other than Mr. Doyle ranged from 77% to 117% of the median base salary from the industry compensation survey data.

Compensation Discussion and Analysis (continued) |  |

In July 2015, the Company selected the following companies to include in its peer group for use in its executive compensation review applicable to the 2016 fiscal year. There were no changes made to the peer group selected in July 2016 for the Company’s executive compensation review relative to the 2017 fiscal year.

2016 Peer Group
Bloomin’ Brands, Inc. |  | Jack in the Box Inc.
Brinker International, Inc. |  | Marriott International, Inc.
Buffalo Wild Wings, Inc. |  | Panera Bread Co.
Chipotle Mexican Grill, Inc. |  | Papa John’s International Inc.
Cracker Barrel Old Country Store, Inc. |  | Restaurant Brands International, Inc.
Darden Restaurants, Inc. |  | The Cheesecake Factory Incorporated
Dunkin’ Brands Group, Inc. |  | The Wendy’s Company
Hyatt Hotels Corporation |  |

The following criteria were considered in determining the members of the Company’s 2016 peer group: publicly-traded, retail or hospitality industry companies, revenues generally between 0.25 times and 3.0 times that of the Company, and a similar business model, complexity of business and recruiting pool for executives.

Role of Executive Officers in Establishing Compensation. The Company’s executive officers have a limited role in the executive compensation process. The CEO, the Chief People Officer and the Chairperson of the Compensation Committee annually review the performance of each named executive officer (other than the CEO) and the Company’s other executive officers and make recommendations to the Compensation Committee. In addition, the Chairman of the Board and the Chairperson of the Compensation Committee review the performance of the CEO and make recommendations to the Compensation Committee. The scope of these reviews is to evaluate performance for a given year and make compensation recommendations for that year and the subsequent year. The conclusions reached and recommendations based on these reviews, including with respect to base salary adjustments and annual incentive awards under the AIP and EIP, are presented to the Compensation Committee for approval. The Compensation Committee may exercise its discretion to modify any recommended base salary adjustments or annual performance incentive or long-term incentive compensation awards to executives. The Compensation Committee ultimately makes all compensation decisions for our named executive officers, which are then ratified by our Board of Directors.

Use of Tally Sheets. The Compensation Committee, with the assistance of management of the Company, created tally sheets to facilitate the Compensation Committee’s review of the total direct compensation of our named executive officers. In preparation for making decisions on increases in base salary, target annual performance incentive awards and target long-term incentive compensation (equity) award grants, the Compensation Committee reviewed the tally sheets for our named executive officers. The tally sheets contained annual cash compensation (base salary and annual performance incentives), other compensation, stock option exercises, equity award vesting events and annual equity award grants under the EIP, and also includes Accounting Standards Codification 718 (“ASC 718”) fair market values for the grants, potential severance payments, and equity award holdings with the total in-the-money value at the end of the fiscal year.

Equity Award Processes. Equity awards are generally granted at the regularly scheduled meetings of the Compensation Committee in February and July of each year. The specific date of these meetings is set by the Board of Directors, along with other Board and committee meetings, generally one to three years in advance. On occasion, in connection with new hires, promotions or certain corporate events, equity awards have been granted at other times throughout the year. The Compensation Committee does not have any plans, practices or policies of timing these equity award grants in coordination with the release of material non-public information and the Company does not have any plans, practices or policies of timing the release of material non-public information with the timing of equity awards. The exercise price of stock options is set at the closing price of Domino’s Pizza, Inc. common stock on the NYSE on the date of the grant.

Compensation Discussion and Analysis (continued) |  |

Components of Total Direct Compensation

Annual Base Salary. The Compensation Committee annually reviews and approves the base salaries, and any adjustments thereto, of our named executive officers. In making these determinations, the Compensation Committee considers various factors such as:

• |  | Industry compensation survey data found in the WTW Studies;

• |  | Peer group compensation information found in the WTW Studies;

• |  | The executive’s employment agreement with the Company;

• |  | The executive’s individual performance, responsibilities, leadership and years of experience; and

• |  | The performance of the Company.

For 2016, the base salaries for our named executive officers, excluding Mr. Doyle, ranged from 77% to 117% of the median base salary from the industry compensation survey data, generally consistent with the Compensation Committee’s target to pay at the 50th percentile of the benchmark.

The 2016 base salaries for our named executive officers, including any year-over-year change, were as follows:

Executive |  | 2015 Base Salary |  |  | 2016 Base Salary |  |  | Overall % Change (Year-Over-Year) |
J. Patrick Doyle |  | $ | 975,000 |  |  | $ | 1,025,000 |  |  |  | 5.1 | %
Russell J. Weiner |  | $ | 550,000 |  |  | $ | 580,000 |  |  |  | 5.5 | %
Richard E. Allison, Jr. |  | $ | 550,000 |  |  | $ | 580,000 |  |  |  | 5.5 | %
Jeffrey D. Lawrence |  | $ | 400,000 |  |  | $ | 420,000 |  |  |  | 5.0 | %
Judith L. Werthauser |  |  | N/A | (1) |  | $ | 450,000 |  |  |  | N/A |

(1) | Ms. Werthauser’s employment with the Company began January 4, 2016.

Annual Performance Incentives. The following section describes the annual performance incentive for fiscal 2016 for each of our named executive officers under the AIP. For 2016, the annual performance targets for the CEO and named executive officers were as follows:

Executive |  | 2016 Annual Performance Incentive Target (% of annual base salary) |
J. Patrick Doyle |  |  | 200 | %
Russell J. Weiner |  |  | 100 | %
Richard E. Allison, Jr. |  |  | 100 | %
Jeffrey D. Lawrence |  |  | 100 | %
Judith L. Werthauser |  |  | 50 | %

The Compensation Committee establishes the performance measures and targets and approves annual performance incentive payouts for the named executive officers based on whether the pre-established performance targets associated with such incentives have been met. The Compensation Committee made annual performance incentive awards under the AIP to each of the named executive officers for fiscal 2016.

The Compensation Committee, Board of Directors and shareholders last approved the AIP in 2015. The AIP allows the Compensation Committee flexibility in establishing the participants, performance measures, performance periods and performance targets, including minimum and maximum annual payment thresholds. For fiscal 2016, 90% of the applicable performance target was required to be achieved in order for AIP participants to be eligible to receive an annual performance incentive payout and the maximum annual payout under the AIP was the lesser of (i) 250% of an individual’s annual performance incentive target, and (ii) $5,000,000 per participant, the maximum annual payment threshold. In February 2016, the Compensation Committee established the annual performance measure, list of participants and target incentive amounts under the AIP for senior executives of the Company for the 2016 fiscal year. For 2016, all of the named executive officers were participants under the AIP.

Compensation Discussion and Analysis (continued) |  |

For annual performance incentives granted with respect to fiscal 2016, the measurement of such performance, as applied to all of the named executive officers, was segment income as defined by the Company under Accounting Standards Codification 280 (“ASC 280”), with certain adjustments (referred to as “adjusted net segment income”), measured over the full 2016 fiscal year. The Compensation Committee believes that the use of adjusted net segment income is appropriate because it is a reliable barometer for the overall success of the Company and it is a primary measure used by management to internally evaluate operating performance and determine future performance targets and for long-range planning for the Company.

In December 2015, effective for the 2016 fiscal year, the Compensation Committee made the following changes to the AIP:

| (i) | the mid-year measurement period and mid-year payments available under the AIP in prior years were eliminated in favor of a full-year measurement period and once-per-year payout;

| (ii) | the performance threshold was increased from 85% of the full-year performance target to a more challenging 90%, meaning that participants would only be eligible to receive an annual performance incentive payout when performance exceeds 90% of the performance target;

| (iii) | the payment formula was revised to pay participants 1% of their annual performance incentive target for every incremental 0.1% in excess of the performance threshold achieved by the Company.

For illustrative purposes, assume a named executive officer had an annual base salary of $100,000 per year and was eligible for an annual performance incentive target of 100% of his annual salary. Further assume that the Company had an annual performance target of $10,000,000. The Compensation Committee determined the following:

• |  | If the annual performance result was $10,100,000, or 101.0% achievement of the annual performance target, the Company would pay the named executive officer 110% of his annual performance incentive target, or $110,000. In other words, for 1% outperformance versus target, an additional 10% of target would be awarded.

• |  | Conversely, assume the annual performance result was $9,500,000, or 95% achievement of the annual performance target. In this situation, the Company would pay the named executive officer 50% (1% for every 0.1% over the performance threshold) of his or her annual performance incentive target, or $50,000.

• |  | Finally, assume the annual performance result was $9,000,000 achievement of the annual performance target. Given the revised performance threshold, the Company would pay the named executive officer 0% of his or her annual performance incentive target in this situation.

Compensation Discussion and Analysis (continued) |  |

For the named executive officers, the annual performance target for fiscal 2016 was achievement of $482 million in adjusted net segment income. The annual performance target was set to be aggressive, yet realistic to sufficiently motivate executive performance. As shown below, the Compensation Committee has raised the annual performance target by 9.5% or more from the previous year’s target in each of the last seven fiscal years. This is an increase of 3.8% in 2016 from 2015’s actual results for the 53-week fiscal year, and annual performance targets increased by 5% over the previous year’s actual results in the each of the prior five years, thereby continuing to require superior performance in a highly-competitive market to achieve the annual performance target.

Fiscal Year |  | Performance Target Percentage Increase From Prior Year Performance Target |  |  | Performance Target Percentage Increase From Prior Year Actual Results |  |  | Performance Incentive Payout |

* | 53-week fiscal year

The Company believes that its annual performance incentive structure for executives that is closely tied to the Company’s performance objectives is relatively difficult to achieve, as evidenced by the payout of less than 70.0% of the annual performance incentive for fiscal 2006 and no annual performance incentive payout for fiscal 2007 and fiscal 2008. The Company’s current seven-year trend of higher than 100% achievement for performance targets has corresponded with the significant growth of the Domino’s business over that time. This growth has been driven by many factors, including the reformulation and launch of our hand-tossed pizza in 2009, an increased focus on technology platforms and creative advertising that highlights our growing brand and product offerings. The Company’s domestic sales performance continues to be top of the QSR industry with a 7-year domestic same store sales average increase of over 7%. Beginning in 2010, the Company’s domestic year-over-year same store sales increases were 9.9% in 2010, 3.5% in 2011, 3.1% in 2012, 5.4% in 2013, 7.5% in 2014, 12.0% in 2015 and 10.5% in 2016. In addition, the Company’s common stock has increased 3,281% from January 1, 2009 through December 31, 2016. These business results have led a very competitive industry and have manifested in overachievement in relation to the annual performance incentive targets during this same time period. In addition, because the annual performance targets set by the Compensation Committee were based on the Company’s performance as a whole, the likelihood of each named executive officer achieving his or her annual performance incentive targets was equal.

The specific performance targets established by the Compensation Committee are based on the financial planning of the Company and take into account a variety of factors including certain plans, programs, commodity pricing and discounts (including long-term supply contracts), product pricing and discounts, volume and sales predictions, marketing plans and expenses, domestic and international store count projections, product initiatives, technological initiatives, macroeconomic conditions and other meaningful information.

Compensation Discussion and Analysis (continued) |  |

The amount of the payouts for 2016 exceeded the target annual performance incentive payout because actual performance was 106.06% of target performance. Accordingly, pursuant to the terms of the plan described above, based on this level of performance, the Compensation Committee determined that 160.6% of the target incentive payout was earned by our named executive officers for fiscal 2016.

Long-term Incentive Compensation. The Compensation Committee believes that an equity component of executive compensation serves to align our named executive officers’ interests with the interests of our shareholders and creating value for those shareholders. To that end, the Compensation Committee provides and maintains a long-term incentive compensation program administered through the EIP.

In 2016, our Board of Directors approved the following awards under the EIP to our named executive officers:

Executive |  | Stock Options Granted (#) |  |  | Stock Option Grant Value ($) |  |  | Performance Shares Granted (#) |  |  | Performance Share Grant Value ($) |
J. Patrick Doyle |  |  | 83,590 |  |  | $ | 2,101,620 | (1) |  |  | 10,460 |  |  | $ | 1,230,201 | (4)

(1) | Based on a Black-Scholes value on February 24, 2016 of $25.142 per share.

(2) | Based on a Black-Scholes value on July 20, 2016 of $32.28 per share.

(3) | Represents (i) 15,990 stock options with a Black-Scholes value on January 4, 2016 of $25.018 per share, plus (ii) 6,980 stock options with a Black-Scholes value on July 20, 2016 of $32.28 per share.

(4) | Based on our closing stock price on February 24, 2016 of $117.61 per share.

(5) | Based on our closing stock price on July 20, 2016 of $136.89 per share.

(6) | Represents (i) 3,670 shares based on our closing stock price on January 4, 2016 of $109.23 per share, plus (ii) 1,650 shares based on our closing stock price on July 20, 2016 of $136.89 per share.

Performance Shares. In 2016, the Compensation Committee continued its use of performance shares as a vehicle for long-term incentive compensation. The Compensation Committee believes that performance shares align with peer group practices and are an important component in its diversified equity compensation strategy. Recipients of performance shares do not receive a benefit from the award unless the Company achieves the applicable performance goal. The actual value of the shares that are earned, if any, will depend on our stock price at the time the performance shares vest and shares are delivered to our named executive officers. Participation in the Company’s long-term incentive compensation program accomplishes the objective of linking each named executive officer’s opportunity for financial gain to Company performance and increases in shareholder wealth, as reflected by the market price of the Company’s common stock.

Performance share awards are full value awards that consist of Domino’s Pizza, Inc. common stock with both time-based and performance-based vesting conditions. The awards vest over four years in four separate vesting tranches, and each vesting tranche has its own performance-based vesting condition that is established annually by the Compensation Committee. For performance shares granted in 2016 (as well as prior years), the measurement of performance established by the Compensation Committee was segment income as defined by the Company under ASC 280, with certain adjustments (the same “adjusted net segment income” used by the Company for annual performance incentives, as described above).

DOMINO’S PIZZA, INC. 2017 PROXY STATEMENT 29 |  |

Compensation Discussion and Analysis (continued) |  |

For performance share grants awarded prior to fiscal 2016, the performance shares for each named executive officer vest only in the event that the Company achieves at least 85% of the annual performance target (with no additional performance shares earned for performance above 85% of the annual performance target). Beginning with grants issued in fiscal 2016, the required achievement percentage for vesting of performance share grants is 90% or more of the annual performance target (with no additional performance shares earned for performance above 90% of the annual performance target). If the achievement is less than 85% of the performance target, or less than 90% for grants issued in fiscal 2016 or later, each respective vesting tranche is canceled and forfeited for no consideration. The performance shares do not contain a provision for partial vesting. All unvested performance shares are canceled upon termination of the named executive officer’s employment, except in certain circumstances such as death and qualified retirement. The performance target with respect to the 2016 fiscal year was achieved for all performance shares previously granted with a 2016 vesting tranche.

The specified service and age requirements for qualified retirement by an employee are ten years of continuous service and 55 years of age. Upon the achievement of the qualified retirement requirements, in the event the named executive officer’s employment is terminated, the performance shares will continue to be eligible to vest upon the achievement of the applicable performance targets. Outstanding, unvested performance shares are also eligible for dividends. Dividends accrue on such unvested performance shares and are delivered to the named executive officers if and when the performance shares vest. As of January 1, 2017, there were no currently employed named executive officers who had achieved the qualified retirement requirements.

Stock Options. In 2016, the Compensation Committee continued its use of stock options as an additional vehicle for long-term incentive compensation. Recipients of stock option grants do not receive a benefit from stock options unless and until the market price of the Company’s common stock increases above the exercise price and the recipient exercises such stock options.

Stock options awarded under the EIP have a maximum term of ten years and vest ratably over four years. Vested options are exercisable for a limited period of time after termination of employment. Upon death and qualified retirement, any unvested stock options become immediately vested and the period of exercisability is extended until the end of the original term of the options. All options awarded under the EIP are granted with an exercise price equal to the closing price of Domino’s Pizza, Inc. common stock on the grant date of the award.

Additional Information Regarding the EIP. Under the EIP, the Compensation Committee may award incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, unrestricted stock, stock deliverable on a deferred basis, performance share awards, and cash payments intended to defray the cost of awards. The EIP also limits the maximum number of shares for which awards may be granted to any participant in any year to 1,000,000 shares per participant. The limit on shares available under the EIP, the individual limits, and other award terms are subject to adjustment to reflect stock splits or stock dividends, combinations, and certain other events. The EIP also includes provisions concerning the treatment of awards upon the termination of service of an individual employee, and in the case of a change in control of the Company, merger or similar corporate transaction by the Company. Grants of awards to our CEO and other named executive officers are presented to the Board of Directors by the Compensation Committee and are ratified by our Board of Directors.

Other Elements of Compensation

Employee Stock Payroll Deduction Plan. The Company maintains the Employee Stock Payroll Deduction Plan (the “ESPDP”), adopted in July 2004, to provide employees, including our named executive officers, with an opportunity to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock through payroll deductions at a 15% discount from the market price. The ESPDP is a qualified plan under Section 423 of the Internal Revenue Code. Shares of the Company’s common stock purchased under the ESPDP have a one-year holding period requirement before employees can sell the shares. The Compensation Committee believes the ESPDP is an attractive benefit that assists the Company in retaining key employees, securing new qualified employees and providing incentives for employees to work towards achieving the Company’s key objectives because it gives employees access to the Company’s equity at a discounted price.

Retirement and Pension Benefits. The Company does not maintain a defined benefit pension plan or retiree medical coverage for the named executive officers.

Compensation Discussion and Analysis (continued) |  |

Deferred Compensation. The Company maintains the Domino’s Pizza Deferred Compensation Plan (the “DCP”), a nonqualified elective deferred compensation plan, whereby our named executive officers, select senior management and Directors are permitted to defer their own compensation. Deferred amounts under the DCP are invested in mutual funds or other investments available under the DCP. The Company does not provide an employer match for amounts deferred in the DCP. The DCP is described more fully below.

Perquisites. The Company makes a limited amount of perquisites available to our named executive officers. The Company covers expenses for each participating named executive officer for the completion of an annual comprehensive physical for the executive and his or her spouse. The Company also reimburses each named executive officer for their personal purchases of Domino’s Pizza food items. Mr. Doyle is also entitled to a certain number of hours of personal use of the Company’s aircraft, as described below. Detailed information regarding perquisites provided to the named executive officers is set forth in the Summary Compensation Table in this Proxy Statement.

Other Benefits. The Company also maintains a benefits program comprised of retirement income and group insurance plans. The objective of the program is to provide our named executive officers and certain other full-time employees with reasonable and competitive levels of benefits for the four contingencies (retirement, death, disability and illness), which will interrupt the eligible employee’s employment and/or income received as an active employee. The retirement program consists of two savings plans; (i) a tax-qualified 401(k) savings plan (the Domino’s Pizza 401(k) Savings Plan), and (ii) a non-qualified deferred compensation plan (the DCP referenced above). The 401(k) savings plan is open to all employees age 21 or older who have also worked at least 1,000 hours for the Company. The Company provides a match on employee 401(k) contributions equal to 100% on the first three percent (3%) contributed by employees into their 401(k) funds and 50% on each of the fourth and fifth percent (4% and 5%) of employee 401(k) contributions.

The Company’s group insurance program consists of life, disability and health insurance benefit plans that are offered to all full-time employees. Umbrella insurance premiums are paid by the Company for participating named executive officers, and the amounts paid are recorded as compensation (and included in the Summary Compensation Table) for such named executive officers.

Compensation for Chief Executive Officer

Mr. Doyle’s annual salary was increased by the Compensation Committee from $975,000 to $1,025,000 on March 1, 2016. Additionally, Mr. Doyle’s employment agreement effective March 1, 2015 provides that Mr. Doyle be eligible for an annual performance incentive that is targeted at 200% of his annual base salary upon the achievement of the annual performance target, the actual amount of which being based on the Company’s achievement of such performance targets under the AIP. The employment agreement also granted him an annual allotment of 45 hours of personal use of the Company’s corporate aircraft during the term of the agreement at no charge to him to address bona fide business-oriented security concerns. For any personal use over the allotted 45 hours per year, the Company has a time-sharing agreement with Mr. Doyle that requires him to reimburse the Company for such personal use of the Company’s corporate aircraft pursuant to a statutory formula.

In February 2016, Mr. Doyle was awarded, as approved by the Board of Directors, long-term incentive compensation in the form of an equity grant under the EIP consisting of: (i) a stock option award of 83,590 shares with a four-year graded vesting period, a ten-year term and an exercise price equal to the closing price of our common stock on the date of the grant, and (ii) a performance share award of 10,460 shares that vest equally over four years in separate tranches. The performance shares have the same terms and conditions as those described above in the long-term incentive compensation section. In February 2017, Mr. Doyle was granted long-term incentive compensation awards under the EIP, as approved by the Board of Directors, consisting of: (i) a stock option award of 45,200 shares, and (ii) a performance share award of 7,720 shares, both with the same terms as the equity grants received in 2016.

Awards under the Company’s EIP in the form of stock options and performance shares are designed to reward demonstrated leadership, motivate future superior performance, align the interests of the CEO with the shareholders and to retain the CEO. The Compensation Committee believes that Mr. Doyle’s compensation is appropriate in relation to his experience, skills, past performance and market data.

Compensation Discussion and Analysis (continued) |  |

In December 2015, WTW provided an executive officer compensation study (the “2015 Study”) to the Compensation Committee that reflected relevant restaurant and quick service restaurant industry compensation levels. Among other factors, the Compensation Committee considered the results of the 2015 Study when it set Mr. Doyle’s annual base salary at $1,025,000 per year as of March 1, 2016 (approximately 1% above the 2015 Study median). In December 2016, WTW provided an executive officer compensation study (the “2016 Study”) to the Compensation Committee using a consistent methodology as the 2015 Study. Again, among other factors, the Compensation Committee considered the results of the 2016 Study when it made decisions relative to Mr. Doyle’s compensation for fiscal 2017, whereby it elected to (i) keep Mr. Doyle’s annual base salary at $1,025,000 per year, (ii) keep his target performance incentive at 200% of his annual base salary, and (iii) increase his target long-term incentive compensation to 350% of his annual base salary. The 2015 Study and 2016 Study are described in more detail above in the section titled “Benchmarking and Peer Group.”

The Compensation Committee believes that Mr. Doyle’s annual base salary in 2016 is an appropriate annual base salary for the CEO as it is approximately 100% of the market median according to the 2015 Study. Mr. Doyle’s 2016 annual base salary is slightly above the market median, his annual performance incentive target is above the market median and his long term incentive compensation is below the market median—resulting in his total direct compensation being above the market median. Mr. Doyle has more than seven years of experience as CEO of the Company and has served in an executive capacity at the Company for more than 20 years. He has overseen tremendous sales, store growth and earnings growth during his tenure. The Compensation Committee and Board of Directors have increased his compensation commensurate with these results. Mr. Doyle’s opportunities to increase his future compensation will depend on the Company’s future performance and the competitive pay practices of comparable positions within the food-service industry.

The Compensation Committee has continued the Company’s practice of using performance-based awards, consisting of stock options and performance shares, for equity compensation to named executive officers. The philosophy behind this practice is that stock options and performance shares require increased Company financial performance in order for the CEO and other executive officers to earn long-term incentive compensation. The Compensation Committee believes Mr. Doyle’s compensation package effectively links shareholder and financial performance to Mr. Doyle’s total direct compensation through the use of long-term incentive compensation awards and cash compensation that is primarily based on Company performance. With respect to financial performance, the Company’s global retail sales, defined as total worldwide retail sales at Company-owned and franchise stores, has increased 73% during Mr. Doyle’s seven-year tenure as CEO, and the Company’s segment income has increased 93% during this time. As it relates to an increase in shareholder value, the price of the Company’s common stock has increased from $12.29 per share to $187.45 per share, or 1,425%, during Mr. Doyle’s seven-year tenure as CEO.

Employment Agreements

Each of our named executive officers is party to a written agreement that governs their employment with the Company and includes both severance provisions as well as restrictive covenants that apply for two years following termination of employment. The provisions of the employment agreements relating to termination of employment and severance are described in more detail under “Potential Post Employment Payments to Executive Officers.” We believe entering into non-competition and non-solicitation arrangements with our named executive officers is important to protect the Company following the cessation of their employment and we also believe that severance provisions help attract and retain top-performing executive officers.

Stock Ownership Guidelines

The Compensation Committee reviews the Company’s stock ownership guidelines annually. In July 2015, the Compensation Committee amended the guidelines to require stock ownership after five years of employment or service with the Company at the individual’s current executive level equal to five times base salary for the CEO, four times base salary for President-level executives, and three times base salary for the other named executive officers. These stock ownership guidelines are designed to align management’s and shareholders’ interests and to encourage loyalty and long-term focus of executives. All of our named executive officers and directors who have completed their respective accumulation period under the guidelines are in compliance with such guidelines.

Clawback Policy

The Compensation Committee has adopted a clawback policy which provides that in the event of an accounting restatement due to material non-compliance with financial reporting requirement under the U.S. federal securities laws, the Compensation Committee has the right to use reasonable efforts to recover from any of our current or former executive officers under Section 16 of the Exchange Act who received incentive-based compensation (including annual cash incentives, performance-based compensation and time-based equity and equity-based awards) during the three-year period preceding the announcement by the Company of its financial statement restatement. Such recovery shall be equal to the amount of excess compensation awarded or paid to such executive officer as a result of the misstatement. This policy applies to cash bonus opportunities and performance-based compensation awards made on or after December 29, 2014. This clawback policy is intended to be interpreted in a manner consistent with any applicable rules or regulations adopted by the SEC or the NYSE as contemplated by the Dodd-Frank Act and any other applicable law and shall otherwise be interpreted by the Compensation Committee.

Tax and Accounting Considerations

Section 162(m) generally limits the tax deductibility of annual compensation paid by a publicly-held company to $1,000,000 per employee per year for certain executive officers. However, this limitation generally does not apply to performance-based compensation under a plan that is approved by the shareholders of a company that also meets certain other technical requirements. The Compensation Committee has utilized performance-based compensation programs that are intended to meet the requirements for performance-based compensation under Section 162(m). At the Company’s 2015 annual meeting of shareholders, the shareholders approved the AIP, under which compensation that is intended to qualify as exempt performance-based compensation under Section 162(m) may be paid. However, the Compensation Committee also realizes that in order to attract and retain individuals with superior talent, it must have the flexibility to pay, and it has paid, compensation that is not deductible under Section 162(m). The Compensation Committee views the tax deductibility of executive compensation as one factor to be considered in the context of an overall compensation philosophy, but not the only factor.

Risk Assessment Disclosure

In February 2017, the Compensation Committee, in consultation with WTW and senior human resource executives of the Company, reviewed the risk assessment for risks associated with the Company’s compensation practices and policies for employees. Based upon the assessment performed, the Committee believes that, through the counterbalance of risk-taking incentives and risk-mitigating features guided by relevant market practices and Company goals, the Company’s compensation practices and policies do not encourage unnecessary or excessive risk taking and are not reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on financial results of the Company.

Non-Qualified Deferred Compensation

A select group of management or highly compensated employees as defined by the Employee Retirement Income and Security Act of 1974, as amended, as well as the Company’s Directors, are eligible to participate in the Domino’s Pizza Deferred Compensation Plan, or the DCP. The purpose of the DCP is to provide supplemental retirement income and to permit eligible employees the option to defer receipt of compensation pursuant to the terms of the plan.

Participants are able to defer a portion of eligible compensation (including base salary and the annual performance incentive). Participants elect a specific date or event (such as termination of employment) for payment of deferred compensation and the form of the payment, either lump sum or installments. Participants are able to invest their deferrals in mutual funds selected by them from a lineup of options. The options available under the DCP for the fiscal year ended January 1, 2017 were as follows:

Boston Trust Small Cap Fund

Credit Suisse Commodity Return Strategy Fund

Dreyfus Mid Cap Index Fund

Fidelity 500 Index Institutional Fund

Fidelity Diversified International Fund

Fidelity Money Market Trust Retirement Money Market Portfolio

Fidelity Puritan Fund

Harding Loevner Institutional Emerging Markets Portfolio

Invesco Comstock Fund

MainStay Large Cap Growth Fund

PIMCO All Asset Fund

PIMCO Total Return Fund

Proposal Three: Advisory Vote to Approve Named Executive Officer Compensation |  |

At our 2016 annual meeting of shareholders, the Company provided shareholders with the opportunity to cast an advisory vote regarding the compensation of our named executive officers as disclosed in our 2016 Proxy Statement. This non-binding advisory vote is commonly referred to as say-on-pay. At our 2016 annual meeting, our shareholders approved the proposal with 93.9% of the votes cast voting in favor of the say-on-pay proposal.

In keeping with the preference expressed by our shareholders at the 2011 annual meeting, our Board of Directors elected to hold an annual say-on-pay vote. Accordingly, this year we are again asking our shareholders to vote FOR the approval of the compensation we pay to our named executive officers as disclosed in this Proxy Statement. In accordance with Rule 14a-21(b) of the Exchange Act, shareholders are being asked to vote again on how frequently we should hold future say-on-pay votes under Proposal Four of this Proxy Statement.

The objectives, philosophy and programs, along with the compensation paid to our named executive officers and the rationale for such compensation, are set forth in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, and the related tables and narrative disclosures in this Proxy Statement.

The Board of Directors, as required pursuant to Section 14A of the Exchange Act, is asking shareholders to cast a non-binding, advisory vote FOR the following resolution:

“RESOLVED, that the compensation paid to the Company’s named executive officers, as disclosed pursuant to Item 402 of Regulation S-K, including the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, compensation tables and any related material contained in this proxy statement, is hereby APPROVED.”

As we described in the Compensation Discussion and Analysis, our executive compensation program embodies a pay-for-performance philosophy that supports the Company’s business strategy and aligns the interests of our executives with our shareholders. In approving the 2016 compensation decisions for our named executive officers, the Compensation Committee considered the financial performance of the Company in 2015. In fiscal 2015, the Company’s financial results significantly exceeded its 2015 business plan and goals. The Company’s named executive officers contributed greatly to these achievements and, therefore, the compensation of our named executive officers was increased.

In addition, the Company has reviewed its compensation programs and engaged in discussions with our key shareholders to solicit feedback regarding our executive compensation programs. As a result, in fiscal 2016 the Company has (i) implemented a majority voting policy for directors, (ii) eliminated the mid-year annual incentive bonus payout under the AIP, (iii) increased the payout threshold under the AIP, and (iv) increased the vesting threshold for performance shares issued under the EIP.

For these reasons, the Board is asking shareholders to again support this “say-on-pay” proposal. Although the vote we are asking you to cast is non-binding, the Compensation Committee and the Board value the views of our shareholders and will continue to consider the outcome of the vote when determining future compensation arrangements for our named executive officers.

Proposal Four: Advisory Vote on Frequency of Future Named Executive Officer Compensation Advisory Votes |  |

In Proposal Three, the Company is asking shareholders to cast an advisory vote for the compensation disclosed in this Proxy Statement that we paid in fiscal 2016 to our named executive officers. This advisory vote is referred to as a “say-on-pay” vote. In this Proposal Four, the Board is asking shareholders to cast a non-binding, advisory vote on how frequently we should have say-on-pay votes in the future. Shareholders will be able to mark the enclosed proxy card or voting instruction form on whether to hold say-on-pay votes every one, two or three years. Alternatively, shareholders may abstain from voting. If you “abstain” from voting on this proposal, your shares will not be treated as votes cast with respect to this proposal and, therefore, will have no effect on the outcome of the vote.

This vote, like the say-on-pay vote itself, is not binding on the Board. The Board will consider the interval selected by the highest number of votes cast to be the recommendation of the shareholders.

The Board believes at this time that say-on-pay votes should be held annually. Although this advisory vote on frequency is not binding on the Board, the Board values shareholder views as to what is an appropriate frequency for advisory votes on executive compensation.

The Domino’s Pizza, Inc. 2004 Equity Incentive Plan was adopted by the Board on June 1, 2004 and was approved by the Company’s shareholders. An Amended Domino’s Pizza, Inc. 2004 Equity Incentive Plan (the EIP) was approved by shareholders at the 2008 annual meeting of shareholders, and a further amendment to the EIP was approved by shareholders at the 2009 annual meeting of shareholders.

The outstanding options issued under the EIP prior to July 2009 generally vest ratably over a five-year period, the outstanding options issued under the EIP beginning in July 2009 through February 2013 generally vest ratably over a three-year period, and outstanding options issued under the EIP beginning in February 2013 generally vest ratably over a four-year period. As of January 1, 2017, there were 2,498,310 options outstanding at a weighted average exercise price equal to $43.54 per share, of which 1,932,209 were exercisable at a weighted average exercise price equal to $27.05 per share, 7,770 shares of restricted stock and 268,450 performance shares currently issued and outstanding under the EIP. As of January 1, 2017, there were a total of 2,949,836 authorized but unissued shares under the EIP.

Under the EIP, there were a total of 2,774,530 options, performance shares and shares of restricted stock currently issued and outstanding and a total of 1,932,209 of such options were fully vested.

The Board may make grants to employees, directors, consultants and other service providers.

The maximum number of shares of stock for which options may be granted to any person in any calendar year or that may be delivered to any person in any calendar year is 1,000,000. Incentive stock options may be granted only to employees. The exercise price of all incentive stock options granted under the EIP must be at least equal to the fair market value of the common stock on the date of grant. The exercise price of non-statutory stock options granted under the EIP is determined by the Plan administrator, but with respect to non-statutory stock options intended to qualify as “performance-based compensation” within the meaning of Section 162(m), the exercise price must be at least equal to the fair market value of Domino’s Pizza, Inc. common stock on the date of grant. With respect to any participant who owns stock representing more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of the Company’s outstanding capital stock, the exercise price of any incentive stock option grant must be at least equal to 110% of the fair market value on the grant date, and the term of such incentive stock option must not exceed five years.

Proposal Five: Shareholder Proposal Regarding Deforestation |  |

The New York State Common Retirement Fund (the “Fund”) has advised the Company that it intends to present the following shareholder proposal at the Annual Meeting. In accordance with applicable proxy regulations, the proposed resolution and supporting statement, for which the Board of Directors and the Company accept no responsibility, are set forth below. The address and share ownership of the proponent will be furnished to any shareholder upon request. Approval of this proposal would require the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes properly cast in person or by proxy at the Annual Meeting. If you abstain, your shares will not be counted as having been voted on the matter. The Board of Directors recommends a vote AGAINST this proposal.

Shareholder Proposal

Domino’s utilizes beef, soy, palm oil, and pulp/paper in its products and supply chain. These are the leading drivers of deforestation globally.

Deforestation has attracted significant attention from civil society, business and government. It accounts for over 10% of global greenhouse gas emissions and contributes to biodiversity loss, soil erosion, disrupted rainfall patterns and community land conflicts. Moreover, the production of commodity drivers of deforestation, such as palm oil and cattle, is often associated with forced labor. Commercial agriculture accounted for over 70% of tropical deforestation between 2000 and 2012, half of which was illegal. Conserving forests by increasing agricultural productivity and use of already cleared land will stabilize soils and climate, regulate regional water flows, and provide habitat for pollinators and natural predators of agricultural pests.

The Consumer Goods Forum has pledge to help its member companies achieve zero net deforestation by 2020, which includes developing “specific time bound and cost effective action plans for the different challenges in sourcing commodities like palm oil, soya, beef, paper and board.”

Peer companies are working to sustainably source commodity drivers of deforestation. For example, McDonald’s, Colgate-Palmolive, Danone, Unilever and Nestlé committed to eliminate deforestation in their global supply chains. These companies also respond to CDP Forests questionnaire, a reporting framework supported by investors with over US$22 trillion in assets.

By contrast, Dominos has not made any public statements on deforestation. The company scores a 1/5 on the Forest 500 scorecard and 0/100 on the Union of Concerned Scientists palm oil scorecard, behind McDonalds, Yum Brands, and Restaurant Brands International.

Because Dominos lacks a commitment to a deforestation-free supply chain, the company may be exposed to significant business risks including supply chain reliability, reputation damage, and failure to meet shifting consumer and market expectations. According to Technomic, a leading food industry consultancy, “consumers are increasingly demanding that businesses become more responsible and transparent. In many cases, they are rewarding those they perceive to be good environmental stewards and corporate citizens.”

Resolved: Shareholders request Dominos develop a comprehensive, cross-commodity policy and implementation plan to eliminate deforestation and related human rights issues from its supply chain.

Supporting Statement:

Proponents believe a meaningful response could include:

• |  | A commitment to buy exclusively from suppliers independently verified as not engaged in 1) deforestation (including peatlands, high conservation value, or high carbon stock forests), or 2) human and labor rights abuses;

• |  | Evidence of proactive implementation efforts, such as a time-bound plan, verification processes, non-compliance protocols and regular reporting; and

• |  | A commitment to work towards strengthening third-party verification programs and multi-stakeholder initiatives to achieve compliance with the company’s policy.

Proposal Five: Shareholder Proposal Regarding Deforestation (continued) |  |

Board of Directors’ Statement in Opposition to Shareholder Proposal

The Board recommends shareholders vote AGAINST the shareholder resolution. Much of the information requested by the shareholder is publicly available on the Investors page of biz.dominos.com under the heading “social commitment” and will continue to be found there going forward. We would direct all shareholders to check there for company information and policy updates.

On the topic of deforestation, which is defined in the proxy proposal as the practices of the Company’s U.S.-based supply chain system related to the purchase of beef, soy, palm oil and cardboard, we can provide the following information. We believe this should alleviate concerns shareholders may have regarding our purchasing practices and negate the need for reporting beyond what is already publicly available.

Please note that the statements below apply only to the U.S.-based supply chain system, which primarily supplies stores in the U.S. and Canada. International master franchisees, which are independent businesses operating their own supply chain businesses, may have different purchasing policies that are at the discretion of their company management.

Palm Oil

Domino’s sources 100% certified sustainable mass balance palm oil product. Domino’s does not purchase raw palm oil, but a product made with palm oil for our pan pizza dough. Pan pizza dough does not comprise the majority of the dough used in our stores or produced at our supply chain centers. Additionally, palm oil is not found in the vast majority of products we produce and sell.

We are proud to say that Domino’s Pizza is a member of the Roundtable for Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO). Through our supplier, AAK USA, Domino’s is committed to sourcing 100% certified sustainable mass balance palm oil. Additionally, we are committed to sourcing palm oil that is produced without deforestation of High Conservation Value areas, High Carbon Stock forests or the destruction of peat land. Domino’s achieved its goal of 100% traceability back to the mill for all palm oil beginning in September 2015. Domino’s requires that AAK be a member in good standing of the RSPO.

Cardboard

The vast majority of the products Domino’s sells leaves the store in one kind of packaging—cardboard boxes. Domino’s now has two primary cardboard suppliers; one is our primary packaging producer that supplies the majority of our stores with a box that is roughly 40% recycled content and one is a box producer currently providing stores in select states with boxes made from 70% recycled content. The policies below reflect the standards set forth by our primary packaging supplier.

Our primary box supplier maintains certified fiber sourcing, controlled wood and chain-of-custody certifications using third party audits. Their policies do not allow the purchasing of fiber from illegal logging, the trade in illegal wood or forest products. Their policies state they will not purchase from anyone in violation of traditional or human rights in forestry operations. They do not purchase from operations that would have an adverse impact to regions of high conservation value. They have further policies and procedures in place to promote and utilize sustainable forestry and extensively participate in outreach and education with landowners on scientifically-supported sustainability practices.

They hold certifications with the Sustainable Forestry Initiative®, the Forest Stewardship Council®, Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification®, Brazilian Forest Certification Program and the American Tree Farm System Group.

Beef and Soy

Annually, Domino’s Pizza purchases:

• |  | Less than 1/10th of 1% of all beef purchased in the U.S. (0.08%) and

• |  | Less than 1% (0.14%) of all soy produced in the U.S.

DOMINO’S PIZZA, INC. 2017 PROXY STATEMENT 51 |  |

##### Table of Contents

Proposal Five: Shareholder Proposal Regarding Deforestation (continued) |  |

We are proud to say that 100% of the beef and soy we purchase is from the United States. The vast majority of the animals and plants involved in food production for Domino’s are raised on small and mid-sized family farms across America. Domino’s has stated publicly for many years that it supports America’s family farms. We believe their generations of experience in raising animals and crops to feed the country’s population make them best able to determine how to be good stewards of their farmland, using science-based policies, standards and procedures.

U.S.-sourced beef and soy are unlikely to trigger the deforestation and human rights concerns of the internationally-sourced products cited as a concern in the proxy resolution.

Given Domino’s track record of success, combined with our regularly-convened consumer panels, there is no indication consumers are avoiding our brand because of a lack of a clearly elucidated deforestation policy. We continue to research and act upon issues related to sustainability, food safety and other topics and are pleased with our progress. Therefore, we reiterate our recommendation against the shareholder resolution.

The Annual Meeting will be held on Tuesday, April 25, 2017 at 10:00 a.m. EDT at the Domino’s Pizza World Resource Center, 30 Frank Lloyd Wright Drive, Ann Arbor, Michigan 48105.

Shareholder Proposals and Director Nominations for Inclusion in Next Year’s Proxy Statement Pursuant to Rule 14a-8

In order to be considered for inclusion in the proxy statement distributed to shareholders prior to the annual meeting of shareholders in 2018, a shareholder proposal pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act must be received by the Corporate Secretary of Domino’s Pizza, Inc. no later than November 16, 2017 and must comply with the requirements of Rule 14a-8. Written requests for inclusion should be addressed to: Domino’s Pizza, Inc., 30 Frank Lloyd Wright Drive, Ann Arbor, Michigan 48105 Attention: Corporate Secretary. It is suggested that you mail your proposal by certified mail, return receipt requested.

Shareholder Proposals and Director Nominations other than Pursuant to Rule 14a-8

If a shareholder wishes to present a proposal or to nominate one or more directors at our 2018 annual meeting of shareholders and the proposal is not intended to be included in our proxy statement relating to that meeting, the shareholder must give advance written notice in accordance with the Company’s By-laws. Under the By-Laws, any shareholder of record of Domino’s Pizza, Inc. entitled to vote for the election of directors may nominate candidates for election to the Board or present other business at an annual meeting if a written notice is received by the Corporate Secretary of Domino’s Pizza, Inc. at the Company’s principal executive offices not less than 60 days nor more than 90 days prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting. Such written notice must set forth the following information: (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 the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (including such person’s written consent to being named in the proxy statement as a nominee and to serving as a Director if elected), (ii) as to any other business to be brought before the meeting, (a) a brief description of the business, (b) the reasons for conducting such business and (c) any material interest in such business of such shareholder and the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the proposal is made, and (iii) as to the shareholder and the beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the nomination or proposal is made, (a) the name and address of such shareholder and such beneficial owner and (b) the number of shares of common stock that are held of record by such shareholder and owned beneficially by such beneficial owner.

Accordingly, the deadline for receipt of timely notice of director nominations or other shareholder proposals for submission to the Domino’s Pizza annual meeting of shareholders without inclusion in the Company’s 2018 Proxy Statement is February 24, 2018. Unless such notice is received by Domino’s Pizza at its corporate headquarters, Attention: Corporate Secretary, on or before the foregoing date, proxies with respect to such meeting will confer discretionary voting authority with respect to any such matter.

Interested Persons and Shareholder Communications to the Board of Directors

Shareholders and interested persons may communicate with the Board or one or more Directors by sending a letter addressed to the Board or to any one or more Directors in care of Corporate Secretary, Domino’s Pizza, Inc., 30 Frank Lloyd Wright Drive, Ann Arbor, Michigan 48105, in an envelope clearly marked “shareholder communication.” The Corporate Secretary’s office will forward such correspondence unopened to either Ms. Cantor or to another independent Director as the Board may specify from time to time, unless the envelope specifies that it should be delivered to another Director.

“Householding” of Proxy Materials

The SEC has adopted rules that permit companies and intermediaries such as brokers to satisfy delivery requirements for proxy statements with respect to two or more shareholders sharing the same address by delivering a single proxy statement addressed to those shareholders. This process, which is commonly referred to as “householding,” potentially provides extra convenience for shareholders and cost savings for companies. The Company and some brokers

household proxy materials, delivering a single proxy statement to multiple shareholders sharing an address unless contrary instructions have been received from the affected shareholders. Once you have received notice from your broker or the Company that they will be householding materials to your address, householding will continue until you are notified otherwise or until you revoke your consent. If, at any time, you no longer wish to participate in householding and would prefer to receive a separate proxy statement, or if you are receiving multiple copies of the proxy statement and wish to receive only one, please notify your broker if your shares are held in a brokerage account or the Company if you hold registered shares. You can notify the Company by sending a written request to Domino’s Pizza, Inc., Investor Relations, 30 Frank Lloyd Wright Drive, Ann Arbor, Michigan 48105, or calling Investor Relations at (734) 930-3563.
