Trustmark
Corporation (the “Company”) is changing the recordkeeper for the Company’s
401(k) Plan. As a result of this change in recordkeeper, a conversion period
is
necessary to transition account and 401(k) Plan records. On December 21,
2006,
the Company sent a notice to participants in the 401(k) Plan informing
them that
the 401(k) Plan would be changing its recordkeeper. The notice also stated
that
while this conversion is being made, participants in the 401(k) Plan would
not
be able access their accounts to direct or diversify their investments
or obtain
a distribution from the 401(k) Plan. Participants will not be able to effectuate
investment changes in the 401(k) Plan for the period starting on January
23,
2007 and ending on February 16, 2007. This period is referred to as the
"Blackout Period." Any fund transfers and future allocation changes must
be
processed by 3:00 pm (Central Time) on January 22, 2007 to occur at the
close of business on that date.
A
participant in the 401(k) Plan, a security holder or other interested person
may
obtain, without charge, information regarding the Blackout Period by contacting
T. Harris Collier, III, General Counsel and Secretary, at (601) 208-5088,
Trustmark Corporation, 248 East Capitol Street, Jackson, Mississippi
39201.
On
January 5, 2007, the Company sent a blackout trading restriction notice
(the
"BTR Notice") to its executive officers and directors informing them that,
pursuant to Section 306(a) of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the SEC’s rules
promulgated thereunder, they would be prohibited during the Blackout Period
from
purchasing and selling shares of the Company's common stock (including
derivative securities pertaining to such shares) acquired in connection
with
their employment as an executive officer or service as a
director.
A
copy of
the BTR Notice is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is incorporated herein
by
reference.
