How we handle your data → Privacy
Each company listed discloses JILL in its own benchmarking peer group, as disclosed in each company's most recent proxy statement within the last two proxy seasons. Two companies are therefore absent by design: one that named JILL in an earlier year and no longer does, and one whose own most recent disclosure is older than the last two seasons.
One page per director: the seat, the committees and the fee table, read for one person at a time.

| Clawback policy | In 2023, the Compensation Committee approved the J.Jill, Inc. Incentive-Base Compensation Recovery Policy (the 'Clawback Policy') in compliance with NYSE listing standards. The Clawback Policy requires the Compensation Committee, subject to certain narrow exceptions permitted by the NYSE listing standards, to recover from current and former executive officers erroneously awarded compensation in the event of a restatement of our financial statements due to material noncompliance with federal securities laws. |

Each peer's compensation is from its most recently filed proxy; fiscal years differ by company. Each peer's figures come from its own filings; the subject company is highlighted. Peers whose chief executive compensation is outside our coverage universe are stated as such, never left blank.
Answers are drawn only from the figures disclosed in this brief and cited to their location in the source filing. Where a figure required for an answer is not disclosed, that is stated rather than estimated.
Each figure's location is given both for the eye (section · page · table · row · column) and for a script (table/row/column index and exact character span in the filed document). Any figure can be independently confirmed against the source.
