●

confidential information relating to the business, operations and financial condition of Transcat, Inc. and its subsidiaries (“Transcat”) is sensitive and needs to be safeguarded;

●

Federal and state law requires that you abstain from trading in Transcat’s securities while you are in possession of material non-public information concerning Transcat and that you refrain from disclosing such information to third parties; and

●

failure to observe this Policy could lead to serious adverse consequences for both Transcat and you (including substantial monetary liability, criminal penalties and termination of employment).

1.

Unauthorized Disclosure. No employee, officer or director of Transcat shall disclose internal information about Transcat to any person outside Transcat, except for such disclosures which have been specifically authorized by an executive officer of Transcat as being required to facilitate a related project or transaction.

2.

Communications with the Media, Analysts and Investors. Communications on behalf of Transcat with the media, securities analysts and other investors shall be made only by specifically designated representatives of Transcat. Unless you have been expressly authorized to make communications on behalf of Transcat, you must direct any inquiry from the media, a securities analyst or an investor to the Committee.

3.

Safeguarding Confidential Information. Because of the sensitive nature of internal information about Transcat and the importance of such information to Transcat, you must take extreme care to safeguard the confidentiality of such information. For example, documents containing sensitive information should not be left lying on desks and conference tables in open view, confidential information should be discussed with other Transcat personnel on a “need to know” basis only, and visitors should not be left unattended in offices containing internal Transcat documents.

1.

No Trading on Material Non-Public Information. No employee, officer or director, while in possession of material non-public information about Transcat, shall: (a) purchase or sell, or recommend or direct the purchase or sale of, any Transcat securities for their own account, any account in which they have a direct or indirect beneficial interest (including the account(s) of family members) or the account of any other person or entity; or (b) disclose or “tip” any such information to any other person. In addition, if you are aware of any material non-public information concerning another public company (for example, the possible acquisition of that company by Transcat), the foregoing rules apply, and you must not trade in the securities of the other company or disclose or “tip” any such information until after such information has been disclosed to the public.

2.

Permitted Trading Period. No officer, director or employee shall purchase or sell any Transcat securities for their own account or any account in which they have a direct or indirect beneficial interest (including the account(s) of family members) except during a 30-day period beginning 48 hours after the public release by Transcat of its quarterly or year-end financial results. However, in the event that, during any such 30-day trading period, officers, directors and employees are prevented from trading in Transcat securities because they are then in possession of material non-public information, the Committee may, in its discretion, establish a special permitted trading period, of 30 days or less, beginning 48 hours after the public release by Transcat of such material non-public information; provided, however, that such special permitted trading period must end ten days prior to Transcat’s next quarter-end. In addition, the Committee is authorized to make limited exceptions to this paragraph in the event of a tangible demonstration of a personal hardship to such officer, director or employee. Determinations by the Committee in this regard shall be final and not subject to further review.

3.

Event-Specific Blackouts. The Committee may impose event-specific blackout periods in its discretion. If the Committee imposes an event-specific blackout period, Insiders and others identified by the Committee may not engage in any trade of Transcat securities of any type under any circumstances. The existence of an event-specific blackout will generally not be announced, other than to those who are aware of the event giving rise to the blackout. If, however, an Insider requests permission to trade in Transcat securities during an event-specific blackout, that individual will be informed of the existence of a blackout period, without the Committee disclosing the reason for the blackout. Any person made aware of the existence of an event-specific blackout must not disclose the existence of the blackout to any other person.

4.

Preclearance Required for Insiders. In addition to the foregoing, no Insider shall purchase or sell any Transcat securities for their own account or any account in which they have a direct or indirect beneficial interest (including the account(s) of family members) unless the Insider has notified the Committee in writing at least five days prior to such purchase or sale, and has received written permission from the Committee to effect such transaction. The Committee will promptly respond (either affirmatively or negatively) to each such notice by email.

5.

Restrictions on Trading. You must understand that trading in Transcat securities includes not only the purchase or sale of Transcat securities, but also the purchase or sale of puts, calls, options and warrants relating to Transcat securities; speculatively trading or hedging Transcat securities; and pledging, hypothecating, or otherwise encumbering Transcat securities as collateral for indebtedness, including holding Transcat securities in a margin account or any other account that could cause the securities to be subject to a margin call or otherwise be available as collateral for a margin loan. Moreover, your spouse, members of your immediate family and those persons and entities (such as trusts) under your control may be deemed to be in possession of material non-public information known to you simply by virtue of your relationship with them. Further, Transcat securities owned by those persons may be deemed to be beneficially owned by you. Trading in Transcat securities by those persons while you are aware of material non-public information may cause legal problems for them and for you; consequently, those persons also should abstain from trading in Transcat securities until after the dissemination of information to the public in accordance with the policies set forth above.
