On January 20, 2015, Jason Industries, Inc.

Since the Company held a special meeting last year, in lieu of an annual meeting, it is reporting the deadline for the submission of shareholder proposals for the 2015 Annual Meeting.

Stockholders who intend to present a proposal at the 2015 Annual Meeting, and who wish to have the proposal included in the Company’s proxy statement for the 2015 Annual Meeting pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, must ensure that the proposal is received by the Corporate Secretary at the Company’s principal executive offices, at 411 East Wisconsin Avenue, Suite 2100, Milwaukee, Wisconsin 53202, on or before the close of business on February 19, 2015, which the Company has determined to be a reasonable time before it begins to print and mail its proxy materials. Any such proposal must meet the requirements set forth in the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission in order to be eligible for inclusion in the proxy statement for the 2015 Annual Meeting.

In addition, under the Company’s Bylaws, stockholders who intend to submit a proposal regarding a director nomination or other matter of business at the 2015 Annual Meeting, and who do not intend to have those proposals included in the Company’s proxy statement and form of proxy relating to the 2015 Annual Meeting, must ensure that notice of any such proposal (including certain additional information specified in the Company’s Bylaws) is received by the Corporate Secretary at the address specified above no later than the close of business on February 19, 2015.
