If you have already voted your shares, thank you.
If you have not voted and you hold more than 100 shares of Piper Jaffray common stock in either
restricted shares or the Piper Jaffray Retirement Plan, you will receive an e-mail on Thursday, May

.
Do not

In addition to the election of directors and the ratification of our independent auditor, the proxy
statement contains a proposal to approve an amended and restated version of our 2003 Annual and
Long-Term Incentive plan, which is being amended and restated principally to increase the number of
shares available for grant.
Your vote FOR the Incentive Plan is particularly important. Absent
shareholder approval of the Incentive Plan, we will be unable to meet important compensation
objectives.
Thank you for your consideration of this important issue and your continued partnership and
commitment to achieving our mission of building the leading, international middle-market investment
bank.
Sincerely,
Andrew
