INSIDER INFORMATION

Employees of Jackson Hewitt may, in the course of performing their duties, come into possession of material non-public information about Jackson Hewitt, or other companies with whom Jackson Hewitt does business. “Material non-public information” is defined as any information that a reasonable investor would consider important in making a decision to buy or sell securities. In short, it includes any information that could be expected to affect the price of securities, either positively or negatively. Buying or selling securities based on such information is referred to as “insider trading” and can result in substantial fines and imprisonment.

It is illegal for a Jackson Hewitt employee to, directly or indirectly, buy or sell shares of stocks or bonds based on material non-public information or to discuss such information with others who might buy or sell such securities, including shares of stock or bonds.

For example, if in the course of your work and prior to a public announcement, you become aware of a change in dividends and earnings, an acquisition, or a major change in management that would materially affect Jackson Hewitt, you may be guilty of insider trading if you bought or sold securities of Jackson Hewitt based on this knowledge or passed this information to anyone who then bought or sold such securities. Certain employees are subject to Jackson Hewitt’s Procedures and Guidelines Governing Securities Trades by Company Personnel. For questions on this policy or any other questions on insider trading, please consult Jackson Hewitt’s Chief Compliance Officer.
