INFORMATION CONCERNING SOLICITATION AND VOTING

This Proxy Statement is furnished to the holders of our common stock in connection with the solicitation of proxies on behalf of our Board of Directors for use at the Annual Meeting or for use at any adjournment or postponement thereof, for the purposes set forth herein and in the accompanying Notice of Annual Meeting of Stockholders. The Annual Meeting will be held on Thursday, June 6, 2024 at 8:00 AM Eastern online at https://web.lumiagm.com/298043967.

Stockholders can attend the Annual Meeting by visiting https://web.lumiagm.com/298043967.

The Annual Meeting will begin promptly at 8:00 AM Eastern. We encourage you to access the meeting 15 minutes prior to the start time, allowing ample time to log in to the meeting webcast and test your computer audio system. If you encounter any difficulty accessing the Annual Meeting, please visit https://go.lumiglobal.com/faq for assistance.

In accordance with the rules of the SEC, we are furnishing proxy materials, including the Notice, this Proxy Statement, our 2023 Annual Report to Stockholders, including financial statements, and a Proxy Card for the Annual Meeting, by providing access to them on the Internet to save printing costs and reduce impact on the environment. These materials were first available on the Internet on April 12, 2024. On or about April 25, 2024 we will mail a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials to our stockholders of record and beneficial owners as of April 9, 2024, the record date for the Annual Meeting. This Proxy Statement and the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials contain instructions for accessing and reviewing our proxy materials on the Internet and for voting by proxy over the Internet. You will need to obtain your own Internet access if you choose to access the proxy materials and/or vote over the Internet. If you prefer to receive printed copies of our proxy materials, the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials contains instructions on how to request the materials by mail. You will not receive printed copies of the proxy materials unless you request them. If you elect to receive the materials by mail, you may also vote by proxy on the Proxy Card or Voter Instruction Card that you will receive in response to your request.

Each holder of our common stock is entitled to one vote for each share held as of the record date with respect to all matters that may be considered at the Annual Meeting. Stockholder votes will be tabulated by persons appointed by our Board of Directors to act as inspectors of election for the Annual Meeting.

We bear the expense of soliciting proxies. Our directors, officers, or employees may also solicit proxies personally or by telephone, telegram, facsimile, or other means of communication. We do not intend to pay additional compensation for doing so. In addition, we might reimburse banks, brokerage firms, and other custodians, nominees, and fiduciaries representing beneficial owners of our common stock, for their expenses in forwarding soliciting materials to those beneficial owners.

1

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THE 2024 ANNUAL MEETING

Q: Why am I receiving these proxy materials?

A: We are furnishing you these proxy materials in connection with the solicitation of proxies on behalf of our Board of Directors for use at the Annual Meeting. This Proxy Statement includes information that we are required to provide under the SEC rules and is designed to assist you in voting your shares.

Proxies in proper form received by us at or before the time of the Annual Meeting will be voted as specified. Stockholders may specify their choices by marking the appropriate boxes on their Proxy Card. If a Proxy Card is dated, signed and returned without specifying choices, the proxies will be voted in accordance with the recommendations of our Board of Directors set forth in this Proxy Statement, and, in their discretion, upon such other business as may properly come before the Annual Meeting. Business transacted at the Annual Meeting will be confined to the purposes stated in the Notice of Annual Meeting. Shares of our common stock, par value $0.01 per share, cannot be voted at the Annual Meeting unless the holder attends the Annual Meeting or is represented by proxy.

Q: Who may vote at the Annual Meeting?

A: Our Board of Directors set April 9, 2024 as the record date for the Annual Meeting. If you owned shares of our common stock at the close of business on April 9, 2024, you may attend and vote at the Annual Meeting. On all matters to be voted on, each stockholder is entitled to one vote for each share of common stock held by such stockholder. As of April 9, 2024, there were 10,747,847 shares of our common stock outstanding and entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting.

Q: How do I attend the Annual Meeting?

A: The Annual Meeting will begin promptly at 8:00 AM Eastern. Online check-in will begin 15 minutes prior to the start of the Annual Meeting to allow ample time to log in to the meeting webcast and test your computer audio system.

You may attend the Annual meeting and vote your shares by visiting https://web.lumiagm.com/298043967. In order to be admitted to the virtual meeting website, you will need to use the unique 11-digit control number previously provided with proxy materials and type the password “jjill2024” to log in to the meeting. If you encounter any difficulty accessing the Annual Meeting, please visit https://go.lumiglobal.com/faq for assistance.

Q: What is the difference between holding shares as a stockholder of record and as a beneficial owner?

A: If your shares are registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, Equiniti Trust Company, LLC (formerly known as American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC), you are considered, with respect to those shares, a stockholder of record. As a stockholder of record, you have the right to vote electronically at the Annual Meeting.

If your shares are held in a brokerage account or by another nominee or trustee, you are considered the beneficial owner of shares held in street name. In that case, the Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials or proxy materials have been forwarded to you by your broker, bank or other holder of record who is considered, with respect to those shares, the stockholder of record. As the beneficial owner, you have the right to direct your broker, bank or other holder of record on how to vote your shares by using the voting instructions included in the Notice of Internet Availability or proxy materials.

2

Q: What is the quorum requirement for the Annual Meeting?

A: Holders of a majority of the voting power of all of our outstanding shares of stock entitled to vote at the meeting must be present in person (virtually) or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting in order for us to hold the Annual Meeting and conduct business. This is called a quorum. Your shares will be counted as present at the Annual Meeting if you:

• Are present virtually and entitled to vote electronically at the Annual Meeting; or

• Properly submitted a Proxy Card or Voter Instruction Card.

If you are attending the Annual Meeting or represented by proxy, but withhold your vote or abstain from voting on any or all proposals, your shares are still counted as present and entitled to vote. Each of the proposals listed in this Proxy Statement identifies the votes needed to approve the proposed action.

Q: What proposals will be voted on at the Annual Meeting?

A: The two proposals to be voted on at the Annual Meeting are as follows:

1. To elect one director to our Board of Directors, to serve as Class I director for a term of three years expiring at the Annual Meeting of Stockholders to be held in 2027 and until such director’s successor has been duly elected and qualified; and

2. To ratify the appointment of Grant Thornton as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending February 1, 2025.

We will also consider any other business that properly comes before the Annual Meeting. As of the record date, we are not aware of any other matters to be submitted for consideration at the Annual Meeting. If any other matters are properly brought before the Annual Meeting, the proxy named in the Proxy Card or Voter Instruction Card will vote the shares it represents using its best judgment.

Q: What is the vote required for each proposal and what are my voting choices?

A: With respect to Proposal 1, the election of directors, you may vote FOR or WITHHOLD. A plurality of the votes cast is required to be elected as a director. A “plurality of the votes cast” means that the director nominee will be elected if she receives a greater number of votes cast “FOR” her election than “WITHHOLD” votes. If you WITHHOLD from voting on Proposal 1, the withheld vote will have no effect on the outcome of the vote (only because the outcome is determined by the number of affirmative votes for each director).

With respect to Proposal 2, you may vote FOR, AGAINST or ABSTAIN, and the vote required is the affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of shares of stock present virtually or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote thereon. If you ABSTAIN from voting on Proposal 2, the abstention will have the same effect as an AGAINST vote.

Q: How does our Board of Directors recommend that I vote?

A: Our Board of Directors recommends that you vote:

1. FOR the election of the director nominee named in this Proxy Statement; and

2. FOR the ratification of the appointment of Grant Thornton as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending February 1, 2025.

3

Q: What is the effect of a broker non-vote?

A: Brokers or other nominees who hold shares for a beneficial owner have the discretion to vote on routine proposals when they have not received voting instructions from the beneficial owner at least 10 days prior to the Annual Meeting. A broker non-vote occurs when a broker or other nominee does not receive instructions from the beneficial owner regarding how to vote on a particular proposal and does not have the discretion to direct the voting of the shares. Broker non-votes will be counted for purposes of calculating whether a quorum is present virtually at the Annual Meeting but will not be counted for purposes of determining the number of votes cast with respect to Proposal 1. Accordingly, a broker non-vote will not impact our ability to obtain a quorum or the outcome of voting on Proposal 1. Because brokers may exercise discretion to vote on Proposal 2, we do not anticipate any broker non-votes with regard to this proposal. If you hold shares in street name and do not vote on Proposal 1, your shares will not be voted in respect of Proposal 1, and will be counted as broker non-votes.

Q: Can I access these proxy materials on the Internet?

A: Yes. The Notice of Annual Meeting, Proxy Statement, and 2023 Annual Report to Stockholders (including the Annual Report on Form 10-K for Fiscal Year 2023) will be available for viewing, printing, and downloading at www.astproxyportal.com/ast/JJill. They are also available under the Investor Relations— Financial Information—SEC Filings section of our website at www.jjill.com and through the SEC’s EDGAR system at http://www.sec.gov. All materials will remain posted on www.astproxyportal.com/ast/JJill at least until the conclusion of the Annual Meeting.

Q: How may I vote my shares electronically at the Annual Meeting?

A: If your shares are registered directly in your name with our transfer agent, Equiniti Trust Company, LLC (formerly known as American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC), you are considered, with respect to those shares, the stockholder of record. As the stockholder of record, you have the right to vote electronically at the Annual Meeting. If your shares are held in a brokerage account or by another nominee or trustee, you are considered the beneficial owner of shares held in street name. As the beneficial owner, you are also invited to attend the Annual Meeting. Because a beneficial owner is not the stockholder of record, you may not vote these shares electronically at the Annual Meeting unless you obtain a “legal proxy” from the broker, nominee, or trustee that holds your shares, giving you the right to vote the shares at the Annual Meeting. Please contact your broker, nominee or trustee if you wish to obtain such a “legal proxy.”

Q: How can I vote my shares without attending the Annual Meeting?

A: If your shares are held by a broker, bank or other nominee, they should send you instructions that you must follow in order to have your shares voted. If you hold shares in your own name, you may vote by proxy in any one of the following ways:

• Via the Internet by following the instructions provided in the Notice of Internet Availability; or

• By requesting that printed copies of the proxy materials be mailed to you pursuant to the instructions provided in the Notice of Internet Availability and completing, dating, signing and returning the Proxy Card that you receive in response to your request.

Even if you plan to attend the Annual Meeting, we encourage you to vote in advance by Internet or mail so that your vote will be counted if you later decide not to attend the Annual Meeting.

The Internet voting procedures are designed to authenticate stockholders’ identities by use of a control number to allow stockholders to vote their shares and to confirm that stockholders’ instructions have been properly recorded. Voting via the Internet must be completed by 11:59 PM Eastern on June 5, 2024. Of course, as described in the immediately preceding question and answer, you can always attend the Annual Meeting and

4

vote your shares electronically. If you submit or return a Proxy Card without giving specific voting instructions, your shares will be voted as recommended by our Board of Directors, as permitted by law.

Q: How can I change my vote after submitting it?

A: If you are a stockholder of record, you can revoke your proxy before your shares are voted at the Annual Meeting by:

• Filing a written notice of revocation bearing a later date than the proxy with our Secretary and General Counsel at 4 Batterymarch Park, Quincy, Massachusetts 02169 at or before the taking of the vote at the Annual Meeting;

• Duly executing a later-dated proxy relating to the same shares and delivering it to our Secretary and General Counsel at 4 Batterymarch Park, Quincy, Massachusetts 02169 at or before the taking of the vote at the Annual Meeting;

• Attending the Annual Meeting and voting electronically (although attendance at the Annual Meeting will not in and of itself constitute a revocation of a proxy); or

• If you voted via the Internet, voting again by the same means prior to 11:59 PM Eastern on June 5, 2024 (your latest Internet vote, as applicable, will be counted and all earlier votes will be disregarded).

If you are a beneficial owner of shares, you may submit new voting instructions by contacting your bank, broker, or other holder of record. You may also vote electronically at the Annual Meeting if you obtain a legal proxy from them.

Q: How can I submit questions in the Annual Meeting?

A: You are encouraged to submit your questions during the Annual Meeting at https://web.lumiagm.com/ 298043967, by using your unique 11-digit control number previously provided with proxy materials and type the password “jjill2024” to log in.

We reserve the right to exclude questions regarding topics that are not pertinent to meeting matters or company business. If we receive substantially similar questions, we may group questions together and provide a single response to avoid repetition. We may decide in our sole discretion whether to address a question during the Annual Meeting or to address a question at a later date, either directly with the party asking the question or on our Investor Relations webpage. If you encounter any difficulty submitting your questions or accessing the Annual Meeting, please visit https://go.lumiglobal.com/faq for assistance.

Q: Is TowerBrook entitled to designate any director nominees for election to our Board of Directors?

A: Under the Stockholders Agreement, dated as of March 14, 2017 (the “Stockholders Agreement”), TI IV JJill Holdings, LP (“TI IV”), an affiliate of TowerBrook Capital Partners L.P. (“TowerBrook”), based on its beneficial ownership of 61.4% of our outstanding common stock taking into account Towerbrook’s warrants exercisable for shares of our common stock, as of April 9, 2024, has the right to designate as nominees (the “TowerBrook Nominees”) a majority of director nominees for election to our Board of Directors. Towerbrook’s ownership percentage of our common stock, without taking into account Towerbrook’s warrants exercisable for shares of our common stock, is 49.5%.

Q: Where can I find the voting results of the Annual Meeting?

A: We will announce the preliminary voting results at the Annual Meeting. We will publish the results in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC within four business days of the Annual Meeting. If the official results are not available at that time, we will provide preliminary voting results in the Current Report on Form 8-K and will provide the final results in an amendment to the Current Report on Form 8-K as soon as they become available.

5

Q: For how long can I access the proxy materials on the Internet?

A: The Notice of Annual Meeting, Proxy Statement, 2023 Annual Report to Stockholders, and Annual Report on Form 10-K for Fiscal Year 2023 will remain posted at www.astproxyportal.com/ast/JJill until the conclusion of the Annual Meeting, and also are and will remain available, free of charge, in PDF and HTML format under the Investor Relations—Financial Information—SEC Filings section of our website at www.jjill.com.

PROPOSAL ONE

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS

The Board currently consists of eight directors, with no vacancies, and the term of the Class I Directors expires at the Annual Meeting. Mr. James Scully is retiring from the Board effective as of the Annual Meeting and is therefore not standing for re-election. Due to Mr. Scully’s retirement, the size of the Board will be reduced from eight directors to seven directors, effective as of the Annual Meeting.

At the Annual Meeting, stockholders will vote to elect the nominee named in this Proxy Statement as the Class I director. The Class I director elected at the Annual Meeting will hold office until the 2027 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and until her successor has been duly elected and qualified. Our Board of Directors has nominated Jyothi Rao to serve as Class I director for a term expiring at the 2027 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and until her successor has been duly elected and qualified. The persons named as proxies will vote to elect Jyothi Rao unless a stockholder indicates that his or her shares should be withheld with respect to the nominee.

In the event that the nominee for Class I director becomes unavailable or declines to serve as a director at the time of the Annual Meeting, the persons named as proxies will vote the proxies in their discretion for any nominee who is designated by the current Board of Directors to fill the vacancy.

If you are a beneficial owner of shares held in street name and you do not provide your broker with voting instructions, your broker may not vote your shares on the election of the director. Therefore, it is important that you vote.

In connection with our initial public offering in March 2017 (our “IPO”), we entered into the Stockholders Agreement with TI IV, an affiliate of TowerBrook, which provides that TI IV, for so long as TI IV beneficially owns at least 50% of our common stock, is entitled to designate for nomination a majority of our Board of Directors. When TI IV beneficially owns less than 50% of our common stock but owns at least 10% of our common stock, TI IV is entitled to designate for nomination a number of directors in proportion to its ownership of our common stock, rounded up to the nearest whole person. When TI IV owns less than 10% of our common stock but owns at least 5% of our common stock, TI IV is entitled to designate for nomination the greater of (i) a number of directors in proportion to its ownership of our common stock, rounded up to the nearest whole person, and (ii) one director.

Our Board of Directors recommends that you vote FOR the nominee for our Board of Directors in this Proposal 1.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE MATTERS

Information about our Board of Directors

In accordance with our certificate of incorporation, as amended, and our by-laws, a majority of our Board of Directors may fix the number of directors, which is currently set at eight. Each director is to hold office until his or her successor is duly elected and qualified or until his or her earlier death, resignation, disqualification or removal. At any meeting of our Board of Directors, the presence in person (or virtually) of a majority of the total number of directors then in office will constitute a quorum for all purposes. Pursuant to the Stockholders Agreement, TI IV currently has the ability to designate as nominees five directors.

Director Independence

We are a “controlled company” for the purposes of the NYSE’s rules and corporate governance standards because more than 50% of the voting power of our common stock is owned by TI IV. As a “controlled company,” we may elect not to comply with certain NYSE corporate governance requirements, including those that would otherwise require our Board of Directors to have a majority of independent directors and require that we either establish Compensation and Nominating, Governance and ESG Committees, each comprised entirely of independent directors, or otherwise ensure that the compensation of our executive officers and nominees for directors are determined or recommended to our Board of Directors by the independent members of our Board of Directors.

Our Board of Directors has determined that Michael Eck, Shelley Milano, Michael Rahamim, Jyothi Rao and James Scully are “independent directors,” as defined by the applicable NYSE rules.

Family Relationships

There is no family relationship between any director, executive officer or person nominated to become our director or executive officer.

Selection of Nominees for our Board of Directors

The Nominating, Governance and ESG Committee of our Board of Directors has the responsibility of identifying individuals qualified to become members of our Board of Directors, consistent with criteria approved by our Board of Directors. The committee also recommends to our Board of Directors for approval director nominees, consistent with our director qualification criteria and any obligations under our contractual arrangements, including the Stockholders Agreement.

With respect to director nominee procedures, the Nominating, Governance and ESG Committee utilizes a broad approach for identification of director nominees and may seek recommendations from our directors, officers or stockholders, or it may choose to engage a search firm. In evaluating and determining whether to ultimately recommend a person as a candidate for election as a director, the Nominating, Governance and ESG Committee considers the qualifications set forth in our corporate governance guidelines, including the highest personal and professional ethics, integrity and values, demonstrated business acumen, experience and ability to use sound judgment to contribute to effective oversight of our business or financial affairs, strategic planning, diversity and independence from management. It also takes into account specific characteristics and expertise that it believes will enhance the diversity of knowledge, expertise, background and personal characteristics of our Board of Directors. The Nominating, Governance and ESG Committee may engage a third party to conduct or assist with the evaluation. Ultimately, the Nominating, Governance and ESG Committee seeks to recommend to our Board of Directors those nominees whose specific qualities, experience and expertise will augment our current Board of Directors’ composition and whose past experience evidences that they will: (1) dedicate sufficient time, energy and attention to ensure the diligent performance of Board of Directors duties; (2) comply

12

with the duties and responsibilities set forth in our corporate governance guidelines and in our by-laws; (3) comply with all duties of care, loyalty and confidentiality applicable to them as directors of publicly traded corporations organized in our jurisdiction of incorporation; and (4) adhere to our Code of Conduct and Ethics, including, but not limited to, the policies on conflicts of interest expressed therein.

The Nominating, Governance and ESG Committee considers stockholder recommendations of qualified nominees when such recommendations are submitted in accordance with the procedures described in our by-laws. Each notice of nomination submitted in this manner must contain the information specified in our by-laws, including, but not limited to, information with respect to the beneficial ownership of our common stock or derivative securities that have a value associated with our common stock held by the proposing stockholder and its associates and any voting or similar agreement the proposing stockholder has entered into with respect to our common stock. To be timely, the notice must be received at our principal executive offices not less than 90 days nor more than 120 days prior to the first anniversary of the date of the prior year’s annual meeting of stockholders. If the annual meeting of stockholders is advanced by more than 30 days, or delayed by more than 60 days, from the anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting of stockholders, or if no annual meeting of stockholders was held in the preceding year, notice by the stockholder, to be timely, must be received no earlier than the 120th day prior to the annual meeting of stockholders and no later than the later of (1) the 90th day prior to the annual meeting of stockholders and (2) the 10th day following the day on which we notify stockholders of the date of the annual meeting of stockholders, either by mail or other public disclosure. See our by-laws for additional information regarding stockholder nominees.

= Member

Mr. James Scully has announced that he will be retiring from the Company’s Board, effective as of the Annual Meeting, and therefore he is not standing for re-election. We extend our deepest gratitude to Mr. Scully for his service to our Board and stockholders.

Audit Committee

Our Audit Committee consists of Michael Eck, Michael Rahamim, Shelley Milano and James Scully. Our Board of Directors has determined that Mr. Eck qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” as such term is defined in Item 407(d)(5) of Regulation S-K. Our Board of Directors has determined that Mr. Eck, Ms. Milano, Mr. Rahamim and Mr. Scully are independent within the meaning of the NYSE listing rules and meet the additional test for independence for Audit Committee members imposed by SEC regulation and the NYSE listing rules. As of the date of this Proxy Statement, our Audit Committee is fully independent and is in compliance with the applicable SEC and NYSE rules and regulations.

Our Audit Committee met 7 times during Fiscal Year 2023. Our Audit Committee assists our Board of Directors in monitoring the audit of our financial statements, our independent registered public accounting firm’s qualifications and independence, the performance of our internal audit function and systems of internal controls, our independent auditors and our compliance with legal and regulatory requirements. The Audit Committee has direct responsibility for the appointment, compensation, retention (including termination) and oversight of our independent auditors, and our independent auditors report directly to the Audit Committee. The Audit Committee also reviews and approves related party transactions as required by the applicable NYSE rules.

Compensation Committee

Our Compensation Committee consists of Shelley Milano, Jyothi Rao Michael Recht, Andrew Rolfe and James Scully. Because we are a controlled company under the NYSE listing rules, our Compensation Committee is not required to be fully independent. Our Compensation Committee met 5 times during Fiscal Year 2023. Our Compensation Committee is responsible for reviewing and recommending policies relating to the compensation and benefits of our directors and employees, including our Chief Executive Officer and other executive officers.

14

The Compensation Committee has the sole authority to retain and terminate any compensation consultant to assist in the evaluation of employee compensation and to approve the consultant’s fees and the other terms and conditions of the consultant’s retention. The Compensation Committee may form and delegate authority to subcommittees where appropriate, provided that the subcommittees are composed entirely of directors who satisfy the applicable independence requirement of our Corporate Governance Guidelines and the NYSE listing rules, subject to any applicable controlled company or other exemption.

The Compensation Committee has engaged the services of F.W.Cook (“FWC”) as its outside independent compensation consultant. FWC provides general executive compensation consulting services to the Compensation Committee and advises it on a range of executive and director compensation matters including plan design, competitive market assessments, trends, best practices and technical and regulatory developments. FWC provides services to the Compensation Committee related only to executive and director compensation, and provides no other services to the Compensation Committee or the Company.

In accordance with the Compensation Committee’s charter, our Chief Executive Officer may not be present during voting or deliberations of the Committee regarding his or her compensation and the Committee reserves the right to request any executive officer present during voting or deliberations of the Committee regarding such executive officer’s compensation to recuse himself or herself.

Nominating, Governance and ESG Committee

Our Nominating, Governance and ESG Committee consists of Shelley Milano, Michael Rahamim, Andrew Rolfe and Jyothi Rao. Because we are a controlled company under the NYSE listing rules, our Nominating, Governance and ESG Committee is not required to be fully independent. Our Nominating, Governance and ESG Committee met 4 times during Fiscal Year 2023. Our Nominating, Governance and ESG Committee is responsible for selecting or recommending that our Board of Directors select candidates for election to our Board of Directors, developing and recommending to our Board of Directors corporate governance guidelines that are applicable to us and overseeing Board of Directors and management evaluations. Our Nominating, Governance and ESG Committee is also responsible for reviewing and providing guidance to us on environmental, social and governance (“ESG”) issues.

Board Leadership Structure and Board of Directors’ Role in Risk Oversight

Our Corporate Governance Guidelines provide that the roles of the Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief Executive Officer may be combined or separated. Our Board of Directors believes that the Company and its stockholders are best served by maintaining flexibility to have any director serve as Chairman and therefore believes that a permanent policy on whether the Chairman of the Board of Directors and the Chief Executive Officer positions should be separated or combined is not appropriate.

As of the date hereof, Ms. Spofford serves as our Chief Executive Officer and President and Mr. Rahamim serves as our Chairman of the Board of Directors. Our Board of Directors believes that this leadership structure, separating the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer roles, is appropriate for the Company at this time, since it allows Ms. Spofford to focus on the operational leadership and strategic direction of the Company. At the same time, Mr. Rahamim can focus on leadership of the Board of Directors, including calling and presiding over meetings of our Board of Directors and executive sessions of the independent directors, preparing meeting agendas in collaboration with the Chief Executive Officer and serving as a liaison and supplemental channel of communication between independent directors and the Chief Executive Officer.

Our Board of Directors has an oversight role, as a whole and also at the committee level, in overseeing management of our risks. The Audit Committee regularly reviews information regarding our credit, liquidity and operations, as well as the risks associated with each. Additionally, the Audit Committee oversees our cybersecurity risks and Enterprise Risk Management program and reports up to our Board of Directors on a

15

recurring and as needed basis. The Nominating, Governance and ESG Committee oversees and guides our evaluation of ESG risks. The Compensation Committee is responsible for overseeing the management of risks relating to our employee compensation plans and arrangements, and the Audit Committee oversees the management of financial risks. While each committee is responsible for evaluating certain risks and overseeing the management of such risks, the entire Board of Directors is regularly informed through committee reports about such risks.

Executive Sessions of our Board of Directors

In order to promote open discussion among non-management directors, and as required under applicable NYSE rules, the non-management members of our Board of Directors meet in regularly scheduled executive sessions at least quarterly without management directors or any other members of the Company’s management present. In addition, the independent members of our Board of Directors meet in a regularly scheduled executive session at least annually. Our Chairman of our Board of Directors, Michael Rahamim, presides at all regularly scheduled executive sessions.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

None of the members of our Compensation Committee in Fiscal Year 2023 was, at any time during Fiscal Year 2023 or at any other time, an officer or employee of the Company. None of our executive officers serves, or in the past has served, as a member of the Board of Directors or compensation committee of any entity, or other committee serving an equivalent function, of any entity that has one or more executive officers who serve as members of our Board of Directors or our compensation committee.

Code of Conduct and Ethics

Our Board of Directors has adopted a Code of Conduct and Ethics that applies to all of our directors, officers and employees and is intended to comply with the relevant listing requirements for a code of conduct as well as qualify as a “code of ethics” as defined by the rules of the SEC. The Code of Conduct and Ethics contains general guidelines for conducting our business consistent with the highest standards of business ethics. We intend to disclose any future amendments to certain provisions of our Code of Conduct and Ethics, or waivers of such provisions applicable to any principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer and controller, or persons performing similar functions, and our directors, on our website at www.jjill.com. The Code of Conduct and Ethics is available on our website under Governance Documents in the Investor Relations—Corporate Governance section of our website at www.jjill.com.

The Company’s Management Incentive Plan for Fiscal Year 2023 was measured based on the Company’s Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“Adjusted EBITDA”) EBITDA. Adjusted EBITDA, represents net income (loss) plus net interest expense, provision (benefit) for income taxes, depreciation and amortization, equity-based compensation expense, goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets impairment, write-off of property and equipment, loss on debt refinancing, adjustment for exited retail stores, fair value adjustments, and other non-recurring expenses, primarily consisting of outside legal and professional fees associated with certain non-recurring transactions and events. Threshold and target Adjusted EBITDA performance goals were established along with their corresponding payout opportunities. To the extent that actual Adjusted EBITDA exceeds the target performance goal, the payout for Fiscal Year 2023 is capped at a payout multiplier of 2.0x. The annual target bonus (as a percentage of base salary) for each of Ms. Spofford, Mr. Webb and Ms. Polischuk under the Company’s Annual Incentive Plan for Fiscal Year 2023 was 100%, 70% and 50%, respectively. The following table outlines the Adjusted EBITDA performance objectives and the payout multiplier for Fiscal Year 2023:

	Below Threshold	Threshold	Above Threshold but Below Target	Target	Above Target	Well Above Target	Maximum
Adjusted EBITDA	< $87.6 million	< $87.6 million	> $87.6 million, but < $109.4 million	$109.4 million	> $109.4 million but < $120.4 million	< $120.4 million	> $131.3 million
Payout Multiplier / Bonus Pool Increment	No payout	.5x	$0.12 added to the bonus pool for every $1.00 of Adjusted EBITDA generated	1.0x	$0.25 added to the bonus pool for every $1.00 of Adjusted EBITDA generated	$0.25 added to the bonus pool for every $1.00 of Adjusted EBITDA generated	2.0x

In Fiscal Year 2023, the Company achieved an Adjusted EBITDA of $112.2 million.

In Fiscal Year 2023, Ms. Polischuk received and accrued but unused vacation time payout of $14,696.

Potential Payments Upon Termination of Employment or Change in Control

Claire Spofford

Termination without “Cause” and/or “Good Reason” Resignation: The Spofford Employment Agreement provides that, upon a termination of employment by the Company without “cause” or a resignation Ms. Spofford for “good reason,” in either case, absent a “change in control” (as defined below), then upon the execution of an irrevocable release of claims and continued compliance with the terms of the restrictive covenants set forth in her employment agreement, Ms. Spofford would be entitled to:

• payment of any accrued benefits including accrued base salary and benefits;

• 12 months of base salary and medical and dental coverage continuation (unless such coverage is otherwise obtained through a new employer);

• a pro-rated bonus for the year of termination based on actual performance (with any personal non-financial performance goals deemed achieved at 100%); and

• accelerated vesting of a prorated portion of the restricted stock units scheduled to vest on the next vesting date following such termination.

If such a qualifying termination of employment occurs at any time following a “change in control” of the Company (as such term is defined in the J.Jill, Inc. 2017 Amended and Restated Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (the “2017 Plan”)) as a result of which the Company or its successor does not have any stock trading on a nationally recognized securities exchange, then upon the execution of an irrevocable release of claims and continued compliance with the terms of the restrictive covenants set forth in her employment agreement, Ms. Spofford would be entitled to, in addition to accrued benefits, (i) an amount equal to the sum of two times her (x) then-current annual base salary and (y) target annual bonus, payable over 12 months following such termination of employment and (ii) 24 months (or, if later, the period from Ms. Spofford’s termination through the completion of the employment term) of medical and dental continuation.

If the severance payments and vesting described above would be a “parachute payment” resulting in a lost tax deduction for the Company under Section 280G of the Code and excise tax to the executive under Section 4999 of the Code, such payments and vesting would be reduced to the extent necessary to avoid the imposition of any excise tax or loss in tax deduction.

Additionally, in accordance with the 2017 Plan and the terms of Ms. Spofford’s PSU award agreements: (A) in the event of a “change in control” within 12 months of the grant date, and either (i) her outstanding equity awards are not assumed or substituted for equivalent awards, or (ii) her outstanding equity awards are assumed or substituted for equivalent awards and, within 12 months following such “change in control,” if Ms. Spofford’s employment is terminated by the Company without “cause” (other than due to death or disability) or by Ms. Spofford for “good reason,” then all outstanding PSUs convert to RSUs assuming target performance criteria

24

have been achieved and based on the closing price of the Company’s stock on the date of the “change in control”; and (B) in the event of a “change in control” after 12 months of the grant date, and either (i) her outstanding equity awards are not assumed or substituted for equivalent awards, or (ii) her outstanding equity awards are assumed or substituted for equivalent awards and, within 12 months following such “change in control,” if Ms. Spofford’s employment is terminated by the Company without “cause” (other than due to death or disability) or by Ms. Spofford for “good reason,” then all outstanding PSUs for which actual performance criteria have been achieved for completed years shall convert to RSUs on the basis of such actual performance results and based on the closing price of the Company’s stock on the date of the “change in control.”

Additionally, in accordance with the 2017 Plan and the terms of Ms. Spofford’s RSU award agreements, in the event of a “change in control” and either (i) her outstanding equity awards are not assumed or substituted for equivalent awards, or (ii) her outstanding equity awards are assumed or substituted for equivalent awards and, within 12 months following such “change in control,” Ms. Spofford’s employment is terminated by the Company without “cause” (other than due to death or disability) or by Ms. Spofford for “good reason,” then the unvested portion of her outstanding equity awards will accelerate and vest in full.

Mark Webb

Termination without “Cause” and/or “Good Reason” Resignation: The Webb Offer Letter provides that, upon a termination of employment by the Company without “cause” or a resignation by Mr. Webb for “good reason,” then upon the execution of an irrevocable release of claims and continued compliance with the terms of the restrictive covenants set forth in his offer letter, Mr. Webb would be entitled to:

• payment of any accrued benefits including accrued base salary and benefits;

• any unpaid annual bonus earned but not yet paid for the fiscal year preceding the fiscal year in which employment was terminated;

• base salary continuation for a period of 12 months following the date of termination; and

• medical and dental coverage continuation for 12 months following the date of termination with the costs of the premiums shared in the same proportion as before the termination of his employment (unless such coverage is otherwise obtained through a new employer).

If the severance payments and vesting described above would be a “parachute payment” resulting in a lost tax deduction for the Company under Section 280G of the Code and excise tax to the executive under Section 4999 of the Code, such payments and vesting would be reduced to the extent necessary to avoid the imposition of any excise tax or loss in tax deduction.

Additionally, in accordance with the 2017 Plan and the terms of Mr. Webb’s PSU award agreements, (A) in the event of a “change in control” within 12 months of the grant date, and either (i) his outstanding equity awards are not assumed or substituted for equivalent awards, or (ii) his outstanding equity awards are assumed or substituted for equivalent awards and, within 12 months following such “change in control,” if Mr. Webb’s employment is terminated by the Company without “cause” (other than due to death or disability) or by Mr. Webb for “good reason,” then all outstanding PSUs convert to RSUs assuming target performance criteria have been achieved and based on the closing price of the Company’s stock on the date of the “change in control”; and (B) in the event of a “change in control” after 12 months of the grant date, and either (i) his outstanding equity awards are not assumed or substituted for equivalent awards, or (ii) his outstanding equity awards are assumed or substituted for equivalent awards and, within 12 months following such “change in control,” if Mr. Webb’s employment is terminated by the Company without “cause” (other than due to death or disability) or by Mr. Webb for “good reason,” then all outstanding PSUs for which actual performance criteria have been achieved for completed years shall convert to RSUs on the basis of such actual performance results and based on the closing price of the Company’s stock on the date of the “change in control.”

25

Additionally, in accordance with the 2017 Plan and the terms of Mr. Webb’s RSU award agreements, in the event of a “change in control” and either (i) his outstanding equity awards are not assumed or substituted for equivalent awards, or (ii) his outstanding equity awards are assumed or substituted for equivalent awards and, within 12 months following such “change in control,” if Mr. Webb’s employment is terminated by the Company without “cause” (other than due to death or disability) or by Mr. Webb for “good reason,” then the unvested portion of his outstanding equity awards will accelerate and vest in full.

Termination without “Good Reason” and/or Death/Disability: The Webb Offer Letter provides that, upon termination of employment due to death or disability or resignation without “good reason,” Mr. Webb will be entitled to accrued base salary, any unpaid annual bonus earned but not yet paid for the fiscal year preceding the fiscal year in which employment was terminated and benefits through the date of termination.

All other terminations of employment: Mr. Webb’s offer letter provides that, upon any other termination of employment, Mr. Webb will be entitled only to accrued base salary and benefits through the date of termination.

Kyle Polischuk

Termination without “Cause” and/or “Good Reason” Resignation: The Company’s offer letter with Ms. Polischuk provided that, upon a termination of employment by the Company without “cause” or a resignation by Ms. Polischuk for “good reason,” then upon the execution of an irrevocable release of claims and continued compliance with the terms of the restrictive covenants set forth in her offer letter, Ms. Polischuk would have been entitled to:

If the severance payments and vesting described above would be a “parachute payment” resulting in a lost tax deduction for the Company under Section 280G of the Code and excise tax to the executive under Section 4999 of the Code, such payments and vesting would have been reduced to the extent necessary to avoid the imposition of any excise tax or loss in tax deduction.

Additionally, in accordance with the 2017 Plan and the terms of Ms. Polischuk’s RSU award agreements, in the event of a “change in control” and either (i) her outstanding equity awards were not assumed or substituted for equivalent awards, or (ii) her outstanding equity awards were assumed or substituted for equivalent awards and, within 12 months following such “change in control,” Ms. Polischuk’s employment was terminated by the Company without “cause” (other than due to death or disability) or by Ms. Polischuk for “good reason,” then the unvested portion of her outstanding equity awards would have been accelerated and vested in full.

The dollar amounts do not reflect the actual amount of compensation earned by or paid to such executives during the applicable year. In accordance with the requirements of Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, the following adjustments were made to the total compensation for each year to determine the compensation actually paid:

The dollar amounts do not reflect the actual average amount of compensation earned by or paid to the Non-PEO NEOs as a group during the applicable year. In accordance with the requirements of Item 402(v) of Regulation S-K, the following adjustments were made to the average total compensation for the Non-PEO NEOs as a group for each year to determine the compensation actually paid, using the same methodology described in Note 2 above:

PROPOSAL TWO

RATIFICATION OF APPOINTMENT OF INDEPENDENT

REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Our Board of Directors, including our Audit Committee, has selected Grant Thornton as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending February 1, 2025, and recommends that our stockholders vote to ratify this appointment. If our stockholders ratify this appointment, our Audit Committee, in its discretion, may appoint a different independent registered public accounting firm at any time during the year if it believes that doing so would be in the best interests of our stockholders. If our stockholders do not ratify this appointment, our Audit Committee may reconsider, but might not change, its appointment.

Grant Thornton has audited our financial statements since Fiscal Year 2021. Representatives of Grant Thornton are expected to be virtually present at the Annual Meeting with the opportunity to make a statement if they desire to do so and are expected to be available to respond to appropriate questions.

Summary of Fees

The Audit Committee has adopted a policy for the pre-approval of all audit and permitted non-audit services that may be performed by our independent registered public accounting firm. Under the policy, the Audit Committee must give prior approval for any amount or type of service within four categories – audit, audit-related, tax services or, to the extent permitted by law, other services-that the independent auditor provides. Prior to the annual engagement, the Audit Committee may grant general pre-approval for independent auditor services within these four categories. During the fiscal year, circumstances may arise when it may become necessary to engage the independent auditor for additional services not contemplated in the original pre-approval and, in those instances, such service will require separate pre-approval by the Audit Committee if it is to be provided by the independent auditor. For any pre-approval, the Audit Committee will consider whether such services are consistent with the SEC’s rules on auditor independence, whether the auditor is best-positioned to provide the most cost-effective and efficient service and whether the service might enhance our ability to manage or control risk or improve audit quality. The Audit Committee may delegate to one or more of its members authority to approve a request for pre-approval, provided the member reports any approval so given to the Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting. All fees incurred subsequent to our IPO were pre-approved by the Audit Committee.

The following table summarizes the aggregate fees billed for professional services rendered by Grant Thornton to us for Fiscal Year 2022 and Fiscal Year 2023. A description of these various fees and services follows the table.

Name	Fiscal 2022		Fiscal 2023
Audit Fees	$	1,100,000	$	979,545
Audit-Related Fees		—		—
Tax Fees		—		—
All Other Fees		—		—
Total	$	1,100,000	$	979,545

Audit Fees

The aggregate fees billed to us by Grant Thornton in Fiscal Years2022 and 2023 reflected as audit fees above consist of fees billed related to the audit of our annual consolidated financial statements included in our annual report on Form 10-K and the review of our quarterly consolidated financial statements included in our quarterly reports on Form 10-Q.

33

Vote Required

Based on this evaluation, our Board of Directors is requesting that our stockholders ratify Grant Thornton’s appointment for the 2024 fiscal year. Approval of the proposal to ratify Grant Thornton’s appointment requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the voting power of shares of stock present virtually or represented by proxy at the Annual Meeting and entitled to vote thereon. Abstentions will be counted for purposes of determining the number of shares present or represented at the virtual Annual Meeting and, accordingly will have the same effect as an AGAINST vote on this proposal.

We are not required to seek ratification from stockholders of our selection of independent auditor but are doing so as a matter of good governance. If the selection is not ratified, the Audit Committee will consider whether it is appropriate to select another independent auditor. Even if the selection is ratified, the Audit Committee in its discretion may select a different independent auditor at any time during the year if it determines that such a change would be in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders.

Our Board of Directors unanimously recommends that stockholders vote FOR the ratification of the appointment of Grant Thornton as our independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending February 1, 2025.

34

AUDIT COMMITTEE REPORT

Our Audit Committee has (1) reviewed and discussed with management the audited financial statements for Fiscal Year 2023, (2) discussed with Grant Thornton, our independent registered public accounting firm, the matters required to be discussed by Auditing Standard No. 61, as adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, and (3) received the written disclosures and the letter from Grant Thornton concerning applicable requirements of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board regarding Grant Thornton’s communications with the Audit Committee concerning independence, and has discussed with Grant Thornton its independence. Based upon these discussions and reviews, the Audit Committee recommended to our Board of Directors that the audited financial statements be included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for Fiscal Year 2023, which is filed with the SEC.

Our Board of Directors has determined that Michael Eck, Shelley Milano, Michael Rahamim and James Scully are independent within the meaning of the NYSE listing rules and meet the additional requirements for independence for Audit Committee members imposed by Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act (collectively, the “Audit Committee Independence Requirements”). As a result, our Audit Committee is composed entirely of directors who are independent within the meaning of the NYSE listing rules and meet the Audit Committee Independence Requirements. Our Board of Directors has determined that Mr. Eck qualifies as an “audit committee financial expert” as such term is defined in Item 407(d)(5) of Regulation S-K. Our Audit Committee operates under a written charter adopted by our Board of Directors, a copy of which is available under Governance Documents in the Investor Relations — Corporate Governance section of our website at www.jjill.com.

Grand Thornton is responsible for performing an independent audit of the consolidated financial statements and expressing an opinion on the conformity of those financial statements with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The Audit Committee’s responsibility is to monitor, evaluate and oversee these processes. The Audit Committee members are not our employees, and are not professional accountants or auditors. The Audit Committee’s primary purpose is to assist our Board of Directors to fulfill its oversight responsibilities by reviewing the financial information provided to stockholders and others, the systems of internal controls that management has established to preserve the Company’s assets and the audit process. It is not the Audit Committee’s duty or responsibility to conduct auditing or accounting reviews or procedures or to determine that our financial statements are complete and accurate and in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The Audit Committee has reviewed and discussed the audited financial statements with management. In giving the Audit Committee’s recommendation to our Board of Directors, it has relied on management’s representations that the consolidated financial statements have been prepared with integrity and objectivity and in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and on the representations of the independent registered public accounting firm, Grand Thornton, included in its report on our consolidated financial statements.

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Other than compensation arrangements for our named executive officers and directors, we describe below each transaction or series of similar transactions, since beginning of Fiscal Year 2023, to which we were a party or will be a party, in which:

• the amounts involved exceeded or will exceed $120,000; and

• any of our directors, executive officers or holders of more than 5% of our capital stock, or any member of the immediate family of the foregoing persons, had or will have a direct or indirect material interest.

Compensation arrangements for our named executive officers and directors are described in the sections entitled “Executive Compensation” and “Director Compensation.”

Indemnification arrangements for our named executive officers and directors are described below under “Indemnification Agreements.”

Policies and Procedures for Related Party Transactions

We have adopted a written Related Person Transaction Policy (the “policy”), which sets forth our policy with respect to the review, approval, ratification and disclosure of all related person transactions by our Audit Committee. In accordance with the policy, our Audit Committee has overall responsibility for the implementation and compliance with the policy.

For purposes of the policy, a “related person transaction” is a transaction, arrangement or relationship (or any series of similar transactions, arrangements or relationships) in which we were, are or will be a participant and the amount involved exceeded, exceeds or will exceed $120,000 and in which any related person (as defined in the policy) had, has or will have a direct or indirect material interest. A “related person transaction” does not include any employment relationship or transaction involving an executive officer and any related compensation resulting solely from that employment relationship that has been reviewed and approved by our Board of Directors or Compensation Committee.

The policy requires that notice of a proposed related person transaction be provided to our legal department prior to entering into such transaction. If our legal department determines that such transaction is a related person transaction, the proposed transaction will be submitted to our Audit Committee for consideration at its next meeting. Under the policy, only our Audit Committee will be permitted to approve those related person transactions that are in, or not inconsistent with, our best interests and the best interests of our stockholders. In the event we become aware of a related person transaction that has not been previously reviewed, approved or ratified under the policy and that is ongoing or is completed, the transaction will be submitted to our Audit Committee so that it may determine whether to ratify, rescind or terminate the related person transaction.

The policy also provides that our Audit Committee will review certain previously approved or ratified related person transactions that are ongoing to determine whether the related person transaction remains in our best interests and the best interests of our stockholders. Additionally, we will make periodic inquiries of directors and executive officers with respect to any potential related person transaction of which they may be a party or of which they may be aware.

Stockholders Agreement

In connection with our IPO, on March 14, 2017 we entered into a Stockholders Agreement with TI IV, which, as further described below, contains certain rights for TI IV.

37

Consent Rights

For so long as TI IV beneficially owns at least 50% of our common stock, TI IV will have prior approval rights over the following transactions:

• Any increase or decrease in the size of our Board of Directors;

• Any incurrence of indebtedness (other than (i) debt existing as of the date of the Stockholders Agreement or refinancing thereof, (ii) capital leases approved by our Board of Directors and (iii) intercompany debt) in excess of $10.0 million;

• Any authorization, creation (by way of reclassification, merger, consolidation or otherwise) or issuance of equity securities (including preferred stock) other than issuances (i) pursuant to an equity compensation plan, (ii) by a subsidiary to us or another wholly owned subsidiary or (iii) upon conversion of convertible securities or exercise of options or warrants outstanding as of the date of the Stockholders Agreement or issued in compliance with the Stockholders Agreement;

• Any redemption or repurchase of our equity securities, other than (i) from any director, officer, independent contractor or employee in connection with the termination of the employment or services of such director, officer or employee as contemplated by the applicable equity compensation plan or award agreement or (ii) pursuant to an offer made pro rata to all stockholders party to the Stockholders’ Agreement;

• Any material acquisition of the assets or equity interests of any other entity in any single transaction or series of related transactions;

• Any fundamental changes to the nature of our business that involve the entry into any new line of business;

• The adoption, approval or issuance of any “poison pill,” stockholder or similar rights plan by us or our subsidiaries or any amendment of such plan;

• Any amendment, restatement or modification of our certificate of incorporation, as amended, or by-laws;

• Any payment or declaration of any dividend or other distribution on any of our equity securities or entering into a recapitalization transaction the primary purpose of which is to pay a dividend, other than dividends required to be made pursuant to the terms of any outstanding preferred stock;

• Appointment or removal of the chairperson of our Board of Directors or any officer of the Corporation that would be subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act;

• The consummation of a change of control or entry into any contract or agreement the effect of which would be a change of control; and

• Our or any of our subsidiaries’ entry into any voluntary liquidation, dissolution or commencement of bankruptcy or insolvency proceedings, the adoption of a plan with respect to any of the foregoing or the decision not to oppose any similar proceeding commenced by a third party.

The effect of the Stockholders Agreement will be that TI IV may maintain control over our significant corporate transactions.

Composition of our Board of Directors

The Stockholders Agreement also provides TI IV with certain rights with respect to the designation of directors to serve on our Board of Directors. As set forth in the Stockholder’s Agreement, for so long as TI IV beneficially owns at least 50% of our common stock, it is entitled to designate for nomination a majority of our Board of Directors. When TI IV beneficially owns less than 50% of our common stock but owns at least 10% of

38

our common stock, TI IV is entitled to designate for nomination a number of directors in proportion to its ownership of our common stock, rounded up to the nearest whole person. When TI IV owns less than 10% of our common stock but owns at least 5% of our common stock, TI IV is entitled to designate for nomination the greater of (i) a number of directors in proportion to its ownership of our common stock, rounded up to the nearest whole person, and (ii) one director.

Registration Rights Agreement

In connection with our IPO, we entered into a registration rights agreement on March 14, 2017 that provides TI IV an unlimited number of “demand” registrations and customary “piggyback” registration rights, and provides certain members of our management with customary “piggyback” registration rights. The registration rights agreement also provides that we will pay certain expenses relating to such registrations and indemnify the registration rights holders against certain liabilities which may arise under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

Services Agreement

We are party to a services agreement with TowerBrook, pursuant to which TowerBrook has performed and will perform management support advisory services, planning and finance services for us. Under the services agreement, we agreed to pay and reimburse reasonable out of pocket expenses to TowerBrook for conducting these advisory services. In Fiscal Year 2023, we reimbursed TowerBrook $14,300 in relation to these services.

Indemnification Agreements

We have entered into customary indemnification agreements with our executive officers and directors that provide, in general, that we will provide them with customary indemnification in connection with their service to us or on our behalf.

These indemnification agreements require us, among other things, to indemnify our directors and officers against liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service as directors or officers, other than liabilities arising from willful misconduct. These indemnification agreements also require us to advance any expenses incurred by the directors or officers as a result of any proceeding against them as to which they could be indemnified and to obtain directors’ and officers’ insurance, if available on reasonable terms.

Subordinated Facility

On September 30, 2020, in connection with our out-of-court restructuring, we entered into the subordinated facility, with a group of lenders that includes TI IV and Mr. Rahamim (the “Subordinated Facility” and the lenders thereunder, the “Subordinated Lenders”). The Subordinated Facility provides for a secured term loan facility in an aggregate principal amount equal to $15.0 million with an additional incremental capacity subject to certain customary conditions and its proceeds have been used for general corporate purposes.

In accordance with the Subordinated Facility, the Company issued warrants to the Subordinated Lenders, which, upon exercise, would grant the Subordinated Lenders 3,820,658 shares (after giving effect to the 5-for-1 reverse stock split) of common stock of the Company. In the first quarter of Fiscal Year 2023, 254,627 of such warrants were exercised.

39

STOCKHOLDER PROPOSALS

To be considered for inclusion in next year’s proxy statement and form of proxy, stockholder proposals for the 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders must be received at our principal executive offices no later than December 13, 2025 unless the date of the 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders is more than 30 days before or after June 6, 2025 in which case the proposal must be received a reasonable time before we begin to print and mail our proxy materials.

For any proposal or director nomination that is not submitted for inclusion in next year’s proxy statement pursuant to the process set forth above, but is instead sought to be presented directly at the 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, stockholders are advised to review our by-laws as they contain requirements with respect to advance notice of stockholder proposals and director nominations. To be timely, the notice must be received at our principal executive offices no earlier than 120 days and no later than 90 days prior to the first anniversary of the date of the prior year’s annual meeting of stockholders. Accordingly, any such stockholder proposal or director nomination must be received between February 6, 2025 and March 8, 2025 for the 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. In the event that the 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders is convened more than 30 days prior to or delayed by more than 60 days after June 6, 2025, notice by the stockholder, to be timely, must be received no earlier than the 120th day prior to the 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and no later than the later of (1) the 90th day prior to the 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders and (2) the 10th day following the day on which we notify stockholders of the date of the 2025 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, either by mail or other public disclosure.

In addition to satisfying the foregoing requirements under our by-laws, to comply with the universal proxy rules, shareholders who intend to solicit proxies in support of director nominees other than the Company’s nominees must provide notice that sets forth the information required by Rule 14a-19 under the Exchange Act, which notice must be postmarked or transmitted electronically to the Company and its principal executive offices no later than April 7, 2025. However, if the date of the 2025 Annual Meeting is changed by more than 30 calendar days from the anniversary date of the 2024 annual meeting, then notice must be provided by the later of 60 calendar days prior to the date of the 2025 Annual Meeting or the 10th calendar day following the day on which public announcement of the date of the 2025 Annual Meeting is first made by the Company.

All proposals should be sent to our principal executive offices at J.Jill, Inc., Attn: Secretary and General Counsel, 4 Batterymarch Park, Quincy, Massachusetts 02169.

We advise you to review our by-laws for additional stipulations relating to the process for identifying and nominating directors, including advance notice of director nominations and stockholder proposals. Copies of the pertinent by-law provisions are available on request to the Secretary and General Counsel at the address set forth above.

HOUSEHOLDING MATTERS

The SEC has adopted rules that permit companies to deliver a single Notice of Internet Availability or a single copy of proxy materials to multiple stockholders sharing an address unless a company has received contrary instructions from one or more of the stockholders at that address.
