RE: "Black-Out" Period for Investor Communications and Stock Trading
Due to concerns regarding stock price fluctuations prior to our quarterly earning releases, all employees are instructed not to discuss the Company's financial performance with investors, stock analysts, or other persons outside the Company for a "black-out" period beginning weeks prior to the end of a quarter until the date of the earnings release following the end of the quarter. Trading is discouraged during this period. Please check with the Legal Department prior to trading in [Your Company]'s stock. For the quarter of [Year], the black-out period will be in effect beginning immediately.
The "black-out" rule is a permanent safeguard and supplements the Company's normal rules governing confidential Company information. While you may periodically receive reminders, please remember that it is your responsibility to abide by these rules.
Please contact me at ext. [Phone of employer] if you have any questions.
