**AMENDMENT TO THE PROXY STATEMENT**

**FOR THE ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS OF**

**JACK IN THE BOX INC.**

**TO BE HELD ON FEBRUARY 27, 2026**

This amendment, dated February 20, 2026 (which we refer to as this "**amendment**"), amends and supplements the definitive proxy statement, dated January 21, 2026, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "**Proxy Statement**") filed by Jack in the Box Inc. (the "**Company**"). The Proxy Statement relates to the solicitation of proxies by the Company's Board of Directors (the "**Board**") for use at the Company's 2026 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (the "**2026 Annual Meeting**"). The Annual Meeting will be held on February 27, 2026, at 8:30 a.m., Pacific Time. The Annual meeting will be held virtually at www.cesonlineservices.com/jack26_vm. Terms used in this amendment that are not defined have the meanings given to them in the Proxy Statement.

In Proposal Four of the Proxy Statement, the Company is seeking shareholder approval of amendments to its 2023 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the "**2023 Plan**") to increase the aggregate number of shares of the Common Stock that may be issued under the 2023 Plan by 2,260,000 shares, subject to adjustment for certain changes in our capitalization.

**As described below, the Company has determined to reduce the requested number of shares to be added to the share reserve, from 2,260,000 shares to 1,900,000 shares.**

Except as specifically stated in this amendment, the information set forth in the Proxy Statement remains unchanged. If information in this amendment differs from or updates information contained in the Proxy Statement, then the information in this amendment is more current and supersedes the different information contained in the Proxy Statement. **THIS AMENDMENT SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE PROXY STATEMENT**.

**Additional Information Regarding Proposal Four**

Pursuant to this amendment, **we are reducing the requested number of additional shares to be added to the 2023 Plan share reserve, from 2,260,000 shares to 1,900,000 shares**. As a result of this change, if Proposal Four is approved by our shareholders, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued under the 2023 Plan will not exceed the sum of (i) 2,500,000 shares (which were approved at our 2023 Annual Meeting of Shareholders); (ii) an additional 1,900,000 shares that are subject to approval by our shareholders under this Proposal Four; and (iii) the Prior Plan Returning Shares, as such shares become available from time to time, as further described in Proposal Four of the Proxy Statement. The actual sum of (i), (ii) and (iii) will not be known until the time of the 2026 Annual Meeting, but will not exceed 4,415,898 shares.

We have made no other changes to the 2023 Plan or the amendment to the 2023 Plan contemplated by Proposal Four.
