FARM Farmer Brothers Company

INSIDER TRADING POLICY Date: January 31, 2024 To: ALL EMPLOYEES, OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, CONSULTANTS AND OTHER ASSOCIATES OF FARMER BROS. CO. AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES (COLLECTIVELY, "FARMER BROS." OR THE "COMPANY") Re: INSIDER TRADING Introduction Generally, there are laws that prohibit trading in the securities of a company on the basis of material nonpublic information (sometimes referred to as "inside" information). Anyone violating these laws is subject to personal liability and could face criminal penalties. In light of the severity of the possible sanctions, both to you individually and to us as a company, we have established this Insider Trading Policy (this "Policy") to assist all of us in complying with our obligations. In order to preserve your and the Company's reputation, it is important not only to avoid, but also to avoid the appearance of, trading on material nonpublic information or the tipping of material nonpublic information to others. Farmer Bros. has worked hard over the years to establish a reputation for integrity and ethical conduct, and will work steadfastly in the future to preserve this reputation. This Policy is not intended to replace your responsibility to understand and comply with the applicable laws and regulations on insider trading where you work or do business. If you have specific questions regarding this Policy, please contact our Compliance Officer at the number set forth in this Policy below. Applicability of this Policy This Policy applies to all transactions in the Company's securities, including common stock, options for common stock, and any other securities the Company may issue from time to time, such as preferred stock, warrants and convertible debentures, as well as to derivative securities relating to the Company's stock, whether or not issued by the Company, such as exchange-traded options, for example. This Policy applies to you, as an employee, officer, director, consultant or other associate of the Company, who receives or has access to material nonpublic information. It applies regardless of position or location. This Policy also applies to your family members who reside with you, anyone else who lives in your household, and family members who do not live in your household but whose securities transactions are directed by you or are subject to your influence or control, as well as trusts or other entities for which you make investment decisions. You may be responsible for the transactions of these persons and, therefore, you should make them aware of the need to confer with you before they trade in the Company's securities or the securities of a company they or you know is a Farmer Bros. Business 1

Associate (as defined below). The persons to whom this Policy applies are referred to as "Covered Persons." Because of their particular access to financial and key business information concerning the Company, Section 16 Individuals and Other Restricted Persons (each as defined below), in addition to being Covered Persons, have additional responsibilities relating to pre-clearance of all trades in the Company's securities and prohibition of trading during certain blackout periods, each as more fully described below. Every Covered Person has the individual responsibility to comply with this Policy. A Covered Person may, from time to time, have to forego a proposed transaction in the Company's securities even if he or she planned to make the transaction before learning of the material nonpublic information and even though the Covered Person believes he or she may suffer an economic loss or forego anticipated profit by waiting. What is Farmer Bros. Insider Trading Policy? Except for the limited exceptions set forth below (see "What are the Limited Exceptions to this Policy?"), you may NOT: · • Buy or sell Farmer Bros. securities for your own account or for any account in which you have a direct or indirect beneficial interest (including an account held by or for any of your family members) while aware of material information concerning Farmer Bros. that has not been disclosed to the general public (so-called "material nonpublic information"). • Pass along (or recommend or express an opinion regarding a transaction in Farmer Bros. securities based on) any material nonpublic information concerning Farmer Bros. to others ("tip" others), including co-workers, customers, suppliers, friends and family members. Penalties can be imposed whether or not you trade in the securities and whether or not you receive any benefit. • Buy or sell securities of any company, including any of our vendors, suppliers and customers (collectively, "Farmer Bros. Business Associates"), for your own account or any account in which you have a direct or indirect beneficial interest (including an account held by or for your family members) while aware of, or tip others of, material nonpublic information concerning such Farmer Bros. Business Associate obtained in the course of employment with, or the performance of services on behalf of, the Company. • Disclose material nonpublic information relating to the Company or any Farmer Bros. Business Associate to third parties. • Comment on stock price movement or rumors of other corporate developments that are of possible significance to the investing public unless it is part of your job (such as Investor Relations) or you have been specifically authorized by the President and Chief Executive Officer or Chief Financial Officer in each instance. • Enter into certain other transactions as described below under "Other Prohibited Transactions." • If you are a Section 16 Individual or Other Restricted Person, buy or sell Farmer Bros. securities without first seeking pre-clearance or during any of the four "Blackout Periods" 2

that occur during each fiscal year (see "Pre-Clearance Procedure, Blackout Periods and Suspension of Trading" below). This does not mean that you cannot ever buy or sell Farmer Bros. securities or the securities of a Farmer Bros. Business Associate. It only means that you cannot buy or sell such securities if you have material nonpublic information until the information is deemed public, subject to the pre-clearance procedures and Blackout Periods in the case of Section 16 Individuals and Other Restricted Persons described below. See "When is Information Deemed Public?" below. When in doubt as to whether information in your possession is material or if you are unsure as to whether the information has been disclosed to the public, you should contact our Compliance Officer who will advise you concerning whether you may make the proposed transaction. Transactions that may be necessary or justifiable for independent reasons (such as the need to raise money for an emergency expenditure) are not excepted from this Policy. The securities laws do not recognize such mitigating circumstances, and, in any event, the appearance of an improper transaction must be avoided to preserve the Company's reputation for adhering to the highest standards of conduct. What is Nonpublic Information? In general, "nonpublic information" is any information relating to the business of Farmer Bros. or a Farmer Bros. Business Associate that is not deemed public. Information received under circumstances indicating that it is not yet deemed public, or where you know or should know that the information could only have been provided on a confidential basis, is also deemed nonpublic information until it is deemed public. When is Information Deemed Public? Information is considered public (and no longer "nonpublic information") if it has been made generally available to the securities marketplace and sufficient time has passed for the information to become available in the market. To show that information is public, it is generally necessary to point to some fact verifying that the information has become generally available, such as disclosure by filing a report on Form 10-Q, Form 10-K, Form 8-K or other report with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), or disclosure by press release to a national business and financial wire service (such as Dow Jones or Reuters), a national news service, or a national newspaper (such as The Wall Street Journal). The circulation of rumors or "talk on the street," even if accurate, widespread and reported in the media, does not constitute public disclosure. Similarly, only disclosing part of the information does not constitute public disclosure. So long as any material portion of the information has yet to be publicly disclosed, the information is deemed "nonpublic" and may not be misused. In the case of information concerning the Company, we believe that at least one full trading day should elapse before you buy or sell any Farmer Bros. securities (e.g., if Farmer Bros. issues its press release containing certain matters on a Tuesday, and assuming there is no intervening holiday, you could buy or sell Farmer Bros. securities beginning on Thursday, subject to any pre-clearance procedures or Blackout Periods, if applicable, and provided you are not aware of any other material nonpublic information). What is Material Information? In general, material information is any information, positive or negative, for which there is a substantial likelihood that a reasonable investor would consider such information important in 3

making his or her investment decisions, or information that likely would affect the trading price of a company's stock. Information can be material even if it relates to future, speculative or contingent events and even if it is significant only when considered in combination with publicly available information. It is important to remember that materiality will be judged with the benefit of hindsight, which is always 20/20. While it is not possible to define all categories of material information, there are various categories of information that are particularly sensitive and, as a general rule, should always be considered material. Examples of such information include: • Financial results, including quarterly or annual earnings; • Earnings estimates or changes in previously announced earnings estimates; • Determination that there is an impairment to one or more of the Company's assets; • Change in the Company's fiscal year; • Proposal or agreement for a significant merger, acquisition, divestiture, tender offer or joint venture, or the termination of such agreement; • Purchase or sale of a significant asset; • New products; • Developments regarding customers or suppliers, or the acquisition or loss of a significant contract; • Change in control of the Company; • Changes in management or the departure or election of a director; • Major labor dispute, including a strike or lockout; • Amendment to the Company's Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws; • The waiver of a provision of the Company's Code of Conduct and Ethics; • A change in the Company's independent auditor; • Discovery of an error in the Company's financial statements or notification from the Company's independent auditor that the Company may no longer rely on a previously issued audit report or completed interim review; • Creation of a financial obligation of the Company, including long-term or short-term debt, capital or operating leases, and off-balance sheet arrangements; • Increase or acceleration of, or default on, a financial obligation of the Company; • Change in dividend policy; • Stock split or stock dividend; 4

• Failure by Farmer Bros. to satisfy a rule or standard for the continued listing of the Company's common stock on Nasdaq; • Significant litigation or government investigation; • Significant financial liquidity problems; and • Other favorable or unfavorable significant business developments. The foregoing are examples only. If you have any question as to whether information is material, please err on the side of caution and direct an inquiry to our Compliance Officer. What Should I Do if a Securities Analyst, the Media or Someone Else Asks Me Questions Regarding Material Nonpublic Information? The SEC's Regulation FD prohibits the selective disclosure of material nonpublic information to securities market professionals and investors who may trade on the basis of the information. Regulation FD requires that any disclosure of material nonpublic information must be made by simultaneous broad dissemination. Accordingly, the following procedures should be followed in handling inquiries from the media, stock exchanges, securities analysts and other outside parties regarding Farmer Bros. Only those employees who have been specifically authorized to do so may answer questions about or disclose information concerning Farmer Bros. Only specifically designated spokespersons should deal with inquiries from the media, stock exchanges and others regarding rumors, unusual trading activity, acquisitions and other material information. The President and Chief Executive Officer will designate official spokespersons from time to time. Inquiries from the financial media, Nasdaq or the SEC should be referred to the Chief Financial Officer. Those employees who interact with the media, analysts and the stock exchanges should refer any inquiries concerning material information to the spokespersons designated above. If such inquiries are made to directors, officers or employees of Farmer Bros. (other than a designated spokesperson), the following response generally will be appropriate: "As to these types of matters, the Farmer Bros. spokesperson is the President and Chief Executive Officer or the Chief Financial Officer. If there is any comment, he or she would be the one to speak with." Care should be taken not to make statements such as, "there is or the Company knows of no corporate development." Even if Farmer Bros. has no material nonpublic information at the time such a statement is made, by making such a statement, it may be undertaking an affirmative disclosure obligation if the facts change, and also may make reliance on a "no comment" policy considerably more difficult in the future. How can I protect material nonpublic information? Material nonpublic information (and all other Farmer Bros. confidential information) should be communicated only to those people who need to know it for a legitimate business purpose and who are authorized to receive the information in connection with their employment responsibilities. In accordance with this Policy, you should NOT: 5

• Discuss material nonpublic information in public, not even in a public setting on the Company's premises. • Discuss material nonpublic information on cellular or wireless telephones. These are open airways that can be overheard, deliberately or inadvertently. • Discuss material nonpublic information in Internet chat rooms or message boards, or post it on Internet websites. • Send material nonpublic information by e-mail to anyone, except persons who need such information to do their work. • Discuss material nonpublic information with friends or family. Even seemingly inadvertent releases of this information can expose the Company, you and your friends and family to civil and criminal penalties. Keep in mind that friends and family may not fully understand the consequences of disclosing or using material nonpublic information. • Be careless when working with written material containing material nonpublic information in public settings, including on public transportation. Always put confidential documents away when not in use. Do not leave documents containing confidential information where they may be seen by persons who do not have a need to know the content of the documents. • Give your computer IDs and passwords to any other person. Password protect computers and log off when they are not in use. What are the limited exceptions to this Policy? Stock Option Exercises This Policy does not apply to the exercise of stock options for cash under the Company's Omnibus or Long Term Incentive Plans (but does apply to the sale of shares issued upon such exercise and to any cashless exercised accomplished by the sale of a portion of the shares issued upon exercise of an option), since the other party to these transactions is the Company itself and the price does not vary with the market, but is fixed by the terms of the option agreement or plan, as applicable. Employee Stock Ownership Plan This Policy does not apply to allocations of stock through our Employee Stock Ownership Plan (but does apply to the sale of any such shares). Mutual Funds This Policy does not apply to transactions in mutual funds that are invested in securities of the Company. Rule 10b5-1 Plan Rule 1 0b5-1 under the Exchange Act provides a defense from insider trading liability under Rule 1 0b-5. In order to be eligible to rely on this defense, a person subject to this Policy must 6

enter into a Rule 1 0b5-1 plan for transactions in Company securities that meets certain conditions specified in the Rule (a "Rule 10b5-1 Plan"). If the plan meets the requirements of Rule 10b5-1, Company securities may be purchased or sold without regard to certain insider trading restrictions. To comply with the Policy, a Rule 10b5-1 Plan must be approved in advance by the Compliance Officer and meet the requirements of Rule 10b5-1 and the Individual Rule 10b5-1 Trading Plan Guidelines attached to this Policy as Appendix A. In general, a Rule 10b5-1 Plan must be entered into at a time when the person entering into the plan is not aware of material nonpublic information. Once the plan is adopted, the person must not exercise any influence over the amount of securities to be traded, the price at which they are to be traded or the date of the trade. The plan must either specify the amount, pricing and timing of transactions in advance or delegate discretion on these matters to an independent third party. Persons subject to this Policy who desire to establish a Rule 10b5-1 contract, instruction or plan should consult with their counsel and broker (who may have a preferable form). Rule 10b5-1 Plans do not exempt individuals from complying with Section 16 short-swing profit rules or liability. Furthermore, Rule 10b5-1 Plans only provide an "affirmative defense" in the event there is an insider trading lawsuit. A Rule 1 0b5-1 Plan will not prevent someone from bringing a lawsuit. PLEASE NOTE THAT FARMER BROS. CANNOT GUARANTEE AND MAKES NO REPRESENTATION THAT CONTRACTS, INSTRUCTIONS OR PLANS INTENDED OR DESIGNED TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF RULE 10b5-1 OF THE EXCHANGE ACT WILL PREVENT CIVIL OR CRIMINAL LIABILITY UNDER STATE OR FEDERAL INSIDER TRADING LAWS. RULE 10b5-1 PURPORTS TO PROTECT INSIDERS FROM FEDERAL INSIDER TRADING LIABILITY WHEN PURCHASES AND SALES ARE MADE PURSUANT TO CONTRACTS, INSTRUCTIONS OR PLANS THAT COMPLY WITH SUCH RULE. SOME STATE JURISDICTIONS DO NOT PROVIDE SUCH PROTECTION, EVEN THOUGH THE PROTECTION MAY BE AVAILABLE ON THE UNITED STATES FEDERAL LEVEL. PERSONS ELECTING TO PURCHASE OR SELL SECURITIES PURSUANT TO THESE PLANS DO SO AT THEIR OWN RISK. Pre-Clearance Procedure, Blackout Periods and Suspension of Trading Pre-Clearance Procedure Certain insiders must contact our Compliance Officer to obtain "pre-clearance" at any time prior to buying or selling our securities. Individuals subject to this pre-clearance requirement are: • Section 16 Individuals. All members of our Board of Directors and our executive officers are our Section 16 Individuals. We will inform each person who is subject to the reporting and penalty provisions of Section 16 of the Exchange Act that they are deemed to be a "Section 16 Individual." • Other Restricted Persons. From time-to-time we will notify other persons that they are subject to the pre-clearance requirement if we believe that, in the normal course of their duties, they are likely to have regular access to material nonpublic information ("Other Restricted Persons"). Examples of persons subject to pre-clearance by virtue of their jobs are accounting managers, internal auditors, controller, and senior sales executives. Occasionally, certain individuals may have access to material nonpublic information for a limited period of time. During such a period, such persons may be notified that they are 7

also subject to the pre-clearance procedure. A list of categories of Other Restricted Persons is attached hereto as Exhibit A. All transactions in the Company's securities by Section 16 Individuals and Other Restricted Persons must be pre-cleared with our Compliance Officer who will advise such Section 16 Individuals and Other Restricted Persons whether or not the transaction is permitted and the time frame during which the transaction may be consummated. Our Compliance Officer will consult as necessary with senior management and/or counsel to the Company before clearing any proposed trade. Requests should be made at least two business days prior to an intended trade. You may use the pre-clearance form attached hereto as Exhibit B or may telephone our Compliance Officer at (682) 549-6670. The pre-clearance form may be sent to our Compliance Officer via e-mail at complianceofficer@farmerbros.com. If our Compliance Officer does not respond to your request. do not assume the transaction has been approved. It is your responsibility to personally speak with the Compliance Officer and receive his affirmative approval prior to undertaking the transaction. If the trade order is not initiated within the specified period of time approved by our Compliance Officer, the pre-clearance form must be resubmitted. All Section 16 Individuals and Other Restricted Persons must notify our Compliance Officer of the completed trade as soon as possible, no later than the end of the day on which the trade is executed. Blackout Periods To ensure compliance with this Policy and applicable federal and state securities laws, the Company requires that all Section 16 Individuals and Other Restricted Persons, and any persons acting on behalf of such persons, not conduct transactions (for their own or related accounts) involving the purchase or sale of the Company's securities from 12:01 a.m. New York City time on the 14th calendar day before the end of each of the Company's four fiscal quarters (including fiscal year end) through 11 :59 p.m. New York City time on the business day following the date of the public release containing the Company's quarterly (including annual) results of operations. These periods are referred to as "Blackout Periods." The Company's fiscal quarters end on March 31, June 30 (fiscal year end), September 30 and December 31. If the 14th calendar day before the end of each of the Company's four fiscal quarters falls on a weekend or a Nasdaq holiday, the Blackout Period will start when the Nasdaq closes on the last trading day prior to the weekend or Nasdaq holiday. The prohibition against trading during a Blackout Period encompasses the fulfillment of "limit orders" by any broker for a Section 16 Individual or Other Restricted Person, and the brokers with whom any such limit order is placed must be so instructed at the time it is placed. Assuming Nasdaq is open each day, below is an example of when you can trade: Announcement on Monday Before Market Opens While Market is Open After Market Closes First Day You Can Trade Tuesday Wednesday Wednesday The safest period for trading in the Company's securities, assuming the absence of material nonpublic information, generally is the first ten trading days following the end of a Blackout Period. The Blackout Periods are particularly sensitive periods and particular attention must be made to ensure that transactions in the Company's securities are made in accordance with applicable laws. This is because officers, directors and certain other employees will, as any quarter progresses, be increasingly likely to possess material nonpublic information about the 8

expected financial results for the quarter. Trading in the Company's securities outside a Blackout Period should not be considered a "safe harbor," and all Covered Persons should use good judgment at all times. Suspension of Trading From time-to-time, we may recommend that Section 16 Individuals and Other Restricted Persons suspend trading in our securities, including outside the Blackout Periods, because of developments that have not yet been disclosed to the public. All those affected should not trade in our securities while the suspension is in effect, and should not disclose to others that we have suspended trading for certain individuals since a statement to that effect could be construed that there exists some material nonpublic information. Other Prohibited Transactions Because of adverse perceptions that may be created by short-term or speculative transactions in the Company's or a Farmer Bros. Business Associate's securities, the Company considers it inappropriate for any Covered Person to engage in, and it is the Company's policy that Covered Persons may not engage in, any of the following transactions: Short Sales Short sales of the Company's or a Farmer Bros. Business Associate's securities evidence an expectation on the part of the seller that the securities will decline in value. It could also be a signal to the market that the seller does not have confidence in the Company ( or the Farmer Bros. Business Associate) or its prospects. In addition, short sales of Company securities may reduce the seller's incentive to improve the Company's performance since the seller can benefit from a decline in the value of Farmer Bros. (or a Farmer Bros. Business Associate's) securities. For these reasons, short sales of the Company's (and a Farmer Bros. Business Associate's) securities by Covered Persons are prohibited. In addition, Section 16(c) of the Exchange Act prohibits officers and directors of the Company from engaging in short sales. Publicly Traded Options A transaction in options is, in effect, a bet on the short-term movement of the Company's or a Farmer Bros. Business Associate's stock and, therefore, could create an impression that the trader is trading based on material nonpublic information. Transactions in options also may focus a Covered Person's attention on short-term performance at the expense of the Company's long-term objectives. Accordingly, transactions by Covered Persons in puts, calls or other derivative securities regarding the Company or a Farmer Bros. Business Associate on an exchange or in any other organized market are prohibited. Hedging Transactions Certain forms of hedging or monetization transactions, such as zero-cost collars and forward sale contracts, allow a person to lock in much of the value of his or her stock holdings, often in exchange for giving up all or part of the potential for upside appreciation in the stock. These transactions allow the person to continue to own the covered securities, but without the full risks and rewards of ownership. When that occurs, a Covered Person may no longer have the same objectives as the Company's or Farmer Bros. Business Associate's other stockholders. 9

Therefore, Covered Persons are prohibited from engaging in any such transactions that involve the securities of the Company or a Farmer Bros. Business Associate. Margin Accounts and Pledges Securities held in a margin account may be sold by the broker without the customer's consent if the customer fails to meet a margin call. Similarly, securities pledged (or hypothecated) as collateral for a loan may be sold in foreclosure if the borrower defaults on the loan or, in many instances, if the value of the collateral falls. Because a margin sale or foreclosure sale may occur at a time when the pledgor is aware of material nonpublic information about the Company (or a Farmer Bros. Business Associate), Covered Persons are prohibited from holding securities of the Company or a Farmer Bros. Business Associate in a margin account or pledging such securities as collateral for a loan. It is the SE C's position that margin and pledge arrangements do not qualify for the protections afforded by Rule 10b5-1 discussed above. An exception to this prohibition may be granted where a person wishes to pledge securities of the Company or a Farmer Bros. Business Associate as collateral for a loan (but not for margin debt) at a time he or she is unaware of material nonpublic information and demonstrates the financial capacity to repay the loan without resort to the pledged securities. Any person who wishes to pledge securities of the Company or a Farmer Bros. Business Associate as collateral for a loan must submit a request for approval to our Compliance Officer well in advance of the proposed execution of documents evidencing the proposed pledge. What are the Potential Consequences of a Violation of this Policy? The matters set forth in this Policy are guidelines only, and appropriate judgment should be exercised in connection with all securities trading. Also, these guidelines are not a substitute for any applicable laws and regulations which may apply in the jurisdictions where you work or do business. You are expected to remain familiar with, and comply with, all applicable laws and regulations in your region. If there are any inconsistencies between this Policy and the laws in your region, then the local laws will apply to the extent of the inconsistency. Compliance with this Policy is not voluntary. Compliance is required by law and by the Company. This Policy must be strictly adhered to. Potential Governmental Action The consequences of an insider trading violation can be devastating, and can ruin both your professional and personal life. The SEC researches any suspicious trading, and does not care if you are trading 10,000 shares or 10 shares. A person can be subject to some or all of the penalties below even if he or she does not personally benefit from the violation (i.e., if the violation only involved passing the information to someone else, called a "tippee"). The SEC, the stock exchanges and the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. use sophisticated electronic surveillance techniques to uncover insider trading. Governmental penalties could include criminal and civil penalties for the Covered Person and possibly for the Company. For those who trade on material nonpublic information (or "tip" such information to others): • Criminal prosecution, prison sentence or substantial criminal fines; 10

• Disgorgement of any profit gained or loss avoided in a civil enforcement action by the SEC; • A civil penalty of up to three times the amount of the profit gained or loss avoided (in addition to disgorgement); • Administrative proceedings and cease-and-desist orders by the SEC; and • Civil liability for damages to private plaintiffs who traded contemporaneously in the market. In addition, the federal securities laws also impose potential liability on companies and other "controlling persons" (such as managerial and supervisory personnel) if they fail to take appropriate steps to prevent insider trading by company personnel. Charges of insider trading, even where defensible, are made with the benefit of hindsight and typically result in adverse publicity and embarrassment for the individual and the company involved. Potential Company Action The failure to comply with this Policy may subject you to Company-imposed sanctions, including termination of employment or dismissal, whether or not the failure to comply results in a violation of law. Priority of Statutory or Regulatory Trading Restrictions The trading prohibitions and restrictions set forth in this Policy will be superseded by any greater prohibitions or restrictions prescribed by federal or state securities laws and regulations, e.g., short-swing trading by Section 16 Individuals or restrictions on the sale of securities subject to Rule 144 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Any employee who is uncertain whether other prohibitions or restrictions apply should ask our Compliance Officer. Additional Information for Section 16 Individuals Only Section 16 Individuals must also comply with the reporting obligations and limitations on "short-swing" transactions set forth in Section 16 of the Exchange Act. The practical effect of these provisions is that Section 16 Individuals who purchase and sell the Company's securities within a six-month period must disgorge all profits to the Company, whether or not they had knowledge of any material nonpublic information. Under these provisions, and so long as certain other criteria are met, the receipt of an option under the Company's Omnibus Plan, the exercise of that option, or the allocation of shares through the Employee Stock Ownership Plan is deemed a purchase under Section 16, and the sale of any such shares is considered a sale under Section 16. Additionally, Section 16 Individuals may never make a short sale of the Company's securities. A short sale is a sale of securities not owned by the seller or, if owned, not delivered. The Company has provided, or will provide, a separate memoranda to its Section 16 Individuals regarding compliance with these rules. Post-Termination Transactions This Policy continues to apply to your transactions in Company (and Farmer Bros. Business Associate) securities even after you have terminated your employment or other relationship with us. If you are in possession of material nonpublic information when your 11

employment or other relationship terminates, you may not trade in Company or Farmer Bros. Business Associate securities until that information is deemed public or is no longer material. Compliance Officer Our Compliance Officer under this Policy is our Chief Compliance Officer. We may, in our sole discretion, change the Compliance Officer from time-to-time. You may contact our Compliance Officer by telephone at (682) 549-6670 or by e-mail at complianceofficer@farmerbros.com. The duties of the Compliance Officer, or his or her designee, which may be executed on the advice of counsel, shall include, but not be limited to: • Determining who the Section 16 Individuals are and notifying them; • Determining who the Other Restricted Persons are and notifying them; • Pre-clearing all securities transactions by Section 16 Individuals and Other Restricted Persons to determine compliance with this Policy, insider trading laws and other applicable securities laws and regulations; • Assisting Section 16 Individuals in the preparation and filing of Section 16 reports (Forms 3, 4 and 5); • Serving as the Company's designated recipient of copies of reports filed with the SEC by Section 16 Individuals; • Reminding an Section 16 Individuals periodically of their reporting obligations; • Performing periodic cross-checks of available materials, which may include Forms 3, 4 and 5, Form 144, Schedules 13D and 13G, officers' and directors' questionnaires, and reports received from our stock administrator and transfer agent, to determine trading activity by officers, directors and others who have, or may have, access to material nonpublic information; • Providing this Policy and other appropriate materials to all employees, officers, directors, consultants and other associates of the Company; • Assisting the Company in implementation of this Policy; and • Coordinating with Company counsel regarding compliance activities with respect to Rule 144 requirements and regarding changing requirements and recommendations for compliance with Section 16 of the Exchange Act and insider trading laws to ensure that this Policy is amended as necessary to comply with such requirements. Company Assistance Covered Persons at all times should avoid even the appearance of impropriety with respect to trading in Farmer Bros. securities or the securities of any Farmer Bros. Business Associate. When there is any question as to a potential application of insider trading laws or any other restrictions on insider trading, or if you know of a suspected violation of these laws, please 12

contact our Compliance Officer. Remember, the ultimate responsibility for adhering to this Policy and avoiding improper transactions rests with you. Because those reviewing your transactions will be doing so after the fact, before engaging in any transaction, you should carefully consider how enforcement authorities and others might view the transaction with the benefit of 20/20 hindsight. Certification As a condition to employment, all employees will be required to certify their understanding of and intent to comply with this Policy. Section 16 Individuals and Other Restricted Persons may be required to certify compliance on an annual basis. 13

APPENDIX A Farmer Bros. Co. Individual Rule 1 0b5-1 Trading Plan Guidelines The Securities and Exchange Commission enacted Rule 10b5-1 (the "Rule") to give directors, officers, employees and others who were often in possession of material, nonpublic information ("Insiders") greater clarity and flexibility with respect to engaging in transactions in their company's stock. If Insiders follow the requirements of the Rule, they have an affirmative defense from insider trading liability for trades made under an effective written plan for trading securities (commonly referred to as a Rule 10b5-1 Plan). In each case, Insiders must act in good faith with respect to the Plan and not as part of a scheme to evade the prohibitions against unlawful insider trading. As set forth in the Insider Trading Policy (the "Policy") of Farmer Bros. Co. (the "Company"), the Company permits its Insiders to purchase or sell shares of Company common stock pursuant to a Rule 10b5-1 plan (a "Plan") under certain circumstances. The office of the General Counsel has set forth the following guidelines (the "Guidelines") to provide Insiders with clarity as to what parameters must be followed in order to adopt a Plan that is compliant with the Policy. These Guidelines are in addition to, and not in lieu of, the requirements and conditions of the Policy and the Rule. Any questions regarding the Guidelines should be directed to the Compliance Officer. 1. Pre-Clearance. All Plans must be submitted in writing and pre-cleared by the Compliance Officer at least five (5) business days prior to the entry into the Plan. The Company reserves the right to withhold pre-clearance of any Plan that the Company determines is not consistent with the rules regarding such Plans. Notwithstanding any pre-clearance of a Plan, the Company assumes no liability for the consequences of any transaction made pursuant to such Plan. Insiders who are directors and/or executive officers are reminded of their obligations under the Company's share ownership guidelines and shall ensure they remain in compliance with such guidelines after giving effect to the proposed Plan. 2. Plan Adoption. All Plans and contracts or instructions relating thereto must be entered into, adopted, amended and/or replaced, as applicable, during an open trading window and when the Insider is not in possession of any material, nonpublic information. 3. Plan Format. All Plans must be in writing and must not allow the Insider to exercise any subsequent influence over how, when or whether to effect trades in Company securities under the Plan. Additionally, Plans must (a) expressly state the amount, price and dates on which transactions may be executed, (b) provide a written formula for determining amounts, prices and dates or (c) delegate discretion on those matters to an independent third party. 4. Cooling-Off Period. After the adoption of a Plan, no trades may be commenced under the Plan until the expiration of an applicable cooling-off period: a. If the Insider is a Company director or officer (as defined in Rule 16a-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (a "Section 16 Person")), the Plan must not permit any trades to occur until the later of (a) 90 days following adoption or modification of the Plan or (b) two business days following the disclosure of the Company's financial results in a Form 10-Q or Form 10-K for the fiscal quarter in which A-1

the Plan was adopted or modified (but, in any event, this required cooling-off period is subject to a maximum of 120 days after adoption of the Plan). b. If the Insider is not a Section 16 Person (but is also not the Company), the Plan must not permit any trades to occur until 30 days after the adoption or modification of such Plan. 5. Multiple Plans. Pursuant to the Rule, a person may only rely on the affirmative defense for a "single-trade plan" once during any consecutive 12-month period. A single-trade plan is a Plan designed to effect the purchase or sale of the total amount of the securities subject to the plan as a single transaction. Further, only one Plan may be in effect at any time, unless one of three exemptions is met, which are: a. A person may enter into more than one Plan with different broker-dealers or other agents and treat the Plans as a single Plan so long as, when taken as a whole, the "plan" complies with all of the rule's requirements; b. A person may adopt one later-commencing Plan so long as trading under the later-commencing Plan is not authorized to begin until after all trades under the earlier-commencing Plan are completed or expire without execution. If the earlier-commencing Plan is terminated earlier, the later-commencing Plan must have a cooling-off period that starts when the first Plan terminates; and c. A person may have an additional Plan set up solely to sell securities as necessary to satisfy tax-withholding obligations arising exclusively from the vesting of a compensatory award, otherwise known as "setl-to-cover" transactions. 6. Trades Outside of the Plan. Once a Plan is established, Insiders may transact in securities that are not subject to the currently existing Plan. Such transactions continue to require pre-clearance and be subject to the Policy. Under no circumstances will opposite-way open market transactions be permitted. 7. Plan Duration. The minimum duration of a Plan is six months and the maximum duration is two years. 8. Certification. When entering into a Plan, an Insider must certify that at the time of adoption of the Plan that the Insider: (1) is not aware of any material, non-public information; and (2) is adopting the Plan in good faith and not as part of a plan or scheme to evade the prohibitions of the Rule. 9. Modifications. Unless otherwise approved in advance by the Compliance Officer, Plan modifications are prohibited. As provided in the Rule, any modification or change to the amount, price, or timing of the purchase or sale of the securities underlying a Plan is a termination of such Plan and the adoption of a new Plan, and the modifying Insider will be subject to the applicable cooling-off period, as noted above in Section 4. In addition, a Plan modification, such as the substitution or removal of a broker that is executing trades pursuant to a Rule 1 0b5-1 arrangement on behalf of the person, that changes the price or date on which purchases or sales are to be executed, is a termination of such Plan and the adoption of a new Plan. 10. Early Terminations. The early termination of a Plan could affect the availability of the Rule's affirmative defense for prior Plan transactions if it calls into question whether the Insider is A-2

acting in good faith with respect to the Plan and whether the Plan was entered into in good faith and not as part of a plan to avoid the insider trading rules. Because of this risk, early terminations are strongly discouraged. In the event an Insider determines to terminate a Plan early, every effort should be taken to terminate the Plan during an open window. Early termination of a Plan during a blackout (or quiet) period requires extenuating circumstances and is subject to pre-clearance by the Compliance Officer. In the event an Insider early terminates the Insider's Plan (whether during an open window or a blackout period), such Insider (i) will be subject to the applicable cooling-off period for a subsequent Plan, as noted above in Section 4, beginning when the first Plan is terminated, and (ii) may be (A) prohibited from adopting future Plans, (B) prohibited from transacting in securities outside of a Plan, or (C) subject to other restrictions at the sole discretion of the Compliance Officer. 11. Brokers and Broker Reporting. Each Plan must require the broker counterparty to promptly report to the Company's designated representative the details of every transaction executed under a Plan, but in any event, such detail shall be provided no later than one business day after the execution date. 12. Public Disclosure of Plan Transactions. Transactions executed pursuant to a Plan will be indicated as such on the Insider's Form 4. In addition, the Company is required to disclose in its periodic reports (i.e., 10-Qs and 10-Ks) the adoption or termination of a Plan by any Section 16 Person during the last completed quarter, including a description of the material terms of such a Plan, other than terms with respect to price. Any Section 16 Person is required to confirm the adoption, modification or termination of a Plan to the Compliance Officer not later than the next business day after such action so that it can be appropriately disclosed by the Company, even if pre-clearance of such action was previously obtained. 13. Securities Laws. A Plan does not relieve Insiders from their obligations to comply with the requirements of applicable securities laws. You will need to coordinate with your broker and the Company to ensure that all of these requirements are satisfied and that all required notices and reports are timely and accurately filed. A-3
