        Our Underlying Values and Principles 
        OUR VALUES:  
         
        We believe that the capacity to accomplish our mission requires that we 
        have a clearly defined set of principles that are based on sound and 
        proven values. Achieving our mission requires that all of our team 
        members subscribe to the values and principles that we consider 
        essential. Our underlying values include, but are not limited to, the 
        following: Honesty, Integrity, Ethics, Respect for Others, Loyalty, 
        Passion for Serving Others, Accountability, Responsibility, Dedication, 
        Commitment, Teamwork, Focus and Proactive Behavior. While this is a 
        lengthy, and seeming long and idealistic listing, we believe that these 
        and similar values provide a good foundation for the principles which 
        guide our company. 
         
        OUR PRINCIPLES: 
         
        Principles are fundamental observations concerning the relationships 
        between action and the subsequent effects of that action on the 
        attainment of organizational objectives. Our Principles of Business 
        Conduct are based on the values we embrace and represent who we are and 
        what we stand for. We strive to earn and maintain the trust and respect 
        of all with whom we conduct business. 
         
        Each of us has an individual responsibility for ethical behavior. The 
        success of Jackson Property Company depends on our individual moral 
        character, commitment to the organization, and self-control. We cannot 
        achieve organizational success without individual success and vice 
        versa. While all of our team members are expected to read, understand 
        and commit to these principles, ensuring that they govern our actions is 
        a matter of individual spirit and intent. These principles include but 
        are not limited to the following: 
         
        1. Our responsibility to our employees: We respect the dignity of each 
        Jackson Property Company employee. Each of us wants and deserves a 
        workplace where we are respected, satisfied, and appreciated. Abusive, 
        harassing or offensive conduct, whether verbal, physical or visual, is 
        unacceptable. We are encouraged to speak out when a co-workers conduct 
        makes us uncomfortable, and to report harassment to our managers and to 
        Employee Resources when it occurs. 
         
        We are all responsible for conducting our work activities to the best of 
        our ability. Each of us will be familiar with the Jackson Property 
        Company Employee Handbook and other Company policy manuals and will 
        strive to comply with them in practice and in spirit 
         
        2. Our responsibility to our clients and our residents: Jackson Property 
        Company exists solely because of our clients, investors and our 
        residents and serving them is the basis of our business. 
         
        a. We will build long-term relationships 
        with our clients and our residents by demonstrating honesty and 
        integrity. All of our marketing and advertising will accurately 
        represent our products and services. 
         
        b. We must protect information about our clients, investors and our 
        residents just as carefully as we would our own and as the law requires. 
        Residents should be given access to personally signed documents in 
        accordance with company policy. Clients and investors will have full 
        access to all information concerning their property. 
         
        c. We will treat the investment of our client with all diligence and 
        care as if it were our own. 
         
        d. We have a responsibility to protect all assets entrusted to us from 
        loss, damage, misuse or theft. Client assets, such as funds or 
        computers, may only be used for business purposes. 
         
        e. We will safeguard all proprietary information by keeping it secure, 
        and limiting access to those who have a need to know in order to do 
        their jobs. Proprietary information includes any information that is not 
        generally known to the public and is helpful to Jackson Property 
        Company, or would be helpful to competitors. The obligation to preserve 
        proprietary information continues even after employment ends.  
        3. Accuracy of Company Records: We 
        require honest and accurate reporting of information in order to make 
        responsible business decisions. All financial books, records and 
        accounts must accurately reflect transactions and events, and conform 
        both to required accounting principles and to Jackson Property Company's 
        internal controls. No false, misleading or incomplete entries may be 
        made. 
         
        4. Business Communications: All business records and communications 
        should be clear, truthful and accurate. We will avoid comments 
        containing exaggeration, colorful language and the like in 
        communications of all kinds, including e-mail and informal notes or 
        memos. Business records and communications often become public through 
        litigation, government investigations and the media. Records should be 
        maintained according to Jackson Property Company=s record retention 
        practices. 
         
        5. Our responsibility to our vendors: Building quality relationships 
        with other companies gives Jackson Property Company a competitive 
        advantage as follows: 
        a. Doing Business with Others: We will 
        strive to ally with companies that share our commitment to ethics and 
        values. We will not do business with others if they violate the law, or 
        if a business relationship with them would likely harm our reputation. 
         
        b. Spending Practices: Decisions to spend or commit Company assets or 
        assets of our clients must be based solely on the best interests of our 
        client and our company. Vendors earn our business based on product or 
        service suitability, price, delivery and quality. Our purchase 
        agreements and contracts will clearly identify the services or products 
        to be provided, their costs and any other relevant terms. Costs must be 
        commensurate with the services or products provided.  
        6. The Decision Making Process: We will 
        make business decisions based on the best interest of our clients and 
        Jackson Property Company. Playing favorites or having conflicts of 
        interest in practice, or in appearance, is contrary to fair treatment 
        and good business judgment. We will avoid any relationship, influence, 
        or activity that might impair, or even appear to impair, our ability to 
        make objective and fair decisions when performing our jobs. When we are 
        required to disclose any relationship to our client or investor we will 
        always provide full disclosure. 
         
        7. We will endeavor to be a learning organization that respects and 
        encourages hard work, innovation and creativity. Our employees will be 
        encouraged, recognized and rewarded for their efforts, best practices 
        and the achievement of their goals for their property.
