This document contains statements concerning the timing, structure and
ramifications of the proposed spin-off and related transactions that are
intended to be "forward-looking statements," as that phrase is defined by the
Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements,
which can be identified by the use of terms such as "plan", "anticipate",
"will", "would", "expect", "estimate" or variations of such terms, may not occur
as presently anticipated in the event necessary approvals are not obtained or
are not obtained on acceptable terms or in the event of adverse developments in
the market for Jefferies Group or ITGI securities or in securities markets in
general. As a result, no forward-looking statement should be regarded as a
representation by Jefferies Group, ITGI or any other person that the presently
anticipated events will occur as described herein.

PLANNED TRANSACTION
================================================================================
Jefferies Group, Inc. is a holding company for two principal lines of business:
a full-service global investment bank serving institutions and small- to
medium-sized corporations (referred to in this document as "New JEF"); and
approximately 81 percent-owned Investment Technology Group, Inc. (referred to in
this document as "ITGI"), the leading provider of technology-based equity
trading services and transaction research to institutional investors and
brokers.
On March 17, 1998, Jefferies Group, Inc. and ITGI announced plans to separate
New JEF and ITGI through a spin-off. After the spin-off, Jefferies Group
stockholders will own 100% of New JEF and approximately 81% of ITGI. The public
ITGI stockholders will continue to own approximately 19% of ITGI. The spin-off
will be accomplished by a tax-free distribution of 100% of the shares of a new
holding company, New JEF, to Jefferies Group stockholders. Jefferies Group's 15
million shares of ITGI would then be its only asset. (As of December 31, 1998,
total outstanding shares of ITGI were 18.6 million). The spin-off would be
followed immediately by a tax-free merger of Jefferies Group and ITGI.
Leading up to the spin-off and merger, certain events will take place regarding
both the capital and legal structures of Jefferies Group, New JEF and ITGI. The
following is a summary of the events relating to the spin-off:
1) In January 1999, Jefferies Group liquidated substantially all of the
Capital Accumulation Plan (see pages 5-7 for details).
2) Obtain favorable tax ruling from IRS.
3) Obtain Board of Director approvals for both Jefferies Group
and ITGI.
4) Solicit and obtain Jefferies Group and ITGI stockholder approvals.
5) ITGI to declare and pay special cash dividend of $4 per share to
all stockholders, including Jefferies Group.
6) Transfer all non-ITGI assets and liabilities, including long term
debt, from Jefferies Group to New JEF or its subsidiaries (see table
II on page 3).
7) Spin-off New JEF to Jefferies Group stockholders (see table III on
page 3).
1
<PAGE> 4
8) Merge ITGI into Jefferies Group, Inc. (merged company referred to in
this document as "New ITGI"). In conjunction with the merger, the
publicly-traded shares of ITGI common stock (other than those held by
Jefferies Group) will be exchanged for shares of New ITGI pursuant to
the exchange ratio. The exchange ratio has been established to
provide:
o the non-Jefferies Group stockholders of ITGI with the same
proportionate common stock ownership of New ITGI that
they held of ITGI prior to the spin-off (approximately 19%),
and
o the Jefferies Group stockholders, as an entirety, with
the same collective percentage ownership of New ITGI that
Jefferies Group held of ITGI prior to the merger (approximately
81%).
The exchange ratio is the ratio of the number of shares of Jefferies
Group common stock at the time of the spin-off (estimated to be 23.9
million -- see pages 5-7 for details) divided by the number of ITGI
common shares held by Jefferies Group (15 million). (see table IV on
page 3).
In summary, a stockholder of Jefferies Group is expected to receive
one share of New JEF and one share of New ITGI (the equivalent of
0.628 shares of ITGI), after the special cash dividend of $4 by ITGI,
for each share of Jefferies Group.
9) Rename New JEF to "Jefferies Group, Inc." and New ITGI to "Investment
Technology Group, Inc." Both of the new companies are expected to
trade on the New York Stock Exchange.

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA FINANCIAL DATA -- "New JEF"
================================================================================
UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL CONDITION OF
NEW JEF (EXCLUDING DISCONTINUED OPERATION)
The following unaudited pro forma condensed consolidated Statement of Financial
Condition of New JEF as of December 31, 1998 has been derived from unaudited
financial statements prepared by New JEF. These financial statements reflect the
financial condition of New JEF assuming the transfer and spin-off are
consummated. In the opinion of management, the unaudited pro forma statement of
financial condition, which gives effect to the spin-off as if it had occurred on
December 31, 1998, includes all significant, normal and recurring adjustments
necessary for the fair presentation of the financial position. The unaudited pro
forma information is presented for illustrative purposes only and is not
necessarily indicative of the financial position that will actually occur when
the transaction is consummated.
In connection with the spin-off, it is anticipated that certain events will take
place that will increase both New JEF's stockholders' equity and the number of
shares outstanding. Following is a summary of such events:
1. Prior to the spin-off, ITGI will declare and pay a special cash dividend
to all of its shareholders, including Jefferies Group. For purposes of
this pro forma statement of financial condition, the special cash dividend
is assumed to be $4 per share. Jefferies Group owns 15 million shares of
ITGI and would receive approximately $60 million. Prior to the spin-off,
Jefferies Group will contribute its entire share of the special cash
dividend to New JEF or its subsidiaries.
2. In January 1999, Jefferies Group liquidated substantially all of the
Jefferies Group Capital Accumulation Plan which resulted in the issuance
of approximately 1.5 million shares of Jefferies Group stock and a cash
payment of approximately $40 million (the "Jefferies Group CAP Plan
Termination"). In connection with the Jefferies Group CAP Plan
Termination, Jefferies Group expects to realize a tax benefit of
approximately $23 million. The obligation under the Jefferies Group CAP
Plan, which had been fully accrued on Jefferies Group's statement of
financial condition, was eliminated upon the issuance of shares and
payment of cash pursuant to, and coincident with, the liquidation of the
Jefferies Group CAP Plan.
3. Prior to the spin-off, Jefferies Group will accelerate the vesting of all
outstanding options issued prior to January 1, 1998 and issue restricted
stock to certain employees. Jefferies Group will not adjust the terms of
the outstanding stock options that were issued prior to January 1, 1998 to
reflect the economic impact of the spin-off. As such, it is anticipated
that all options issued prior to January 1, 1998, will be exercised before
the spin-off and will result in net exercise proceeds of $9 million and a
related tax benefit of $12 million for purposes of this pro forma
statement of financial condition (based on the closing price of Jefferies
Group Common Stock on the NYSE on February 19, 1999 of $39.75 per share).
The exact amount of the tax benefit will be dependent upon the fair market
value of Jefferies Group Common Stock on the date of issuance of the
shares. Assuming a Jefferies Group Common Stock price range of $35 to $50,
the expected tax benefit will range from approximately $11 million to
approximately $14 million. The exercise of options and issuance of
restricted shares is expected to result in an increase of Jefferies Group
common shares outstanding of 1.2 million.
4. New JEF's share of the transaction costs for 1999 is expected to be
approximately $6.3 million.
