DID YOU KNOW?

            The economy is growing, according to a recent survey of 52
        --  economists, but more slowly than originally estimated for the first
            six months of the year.

            Employment among small businesses has been trending upward since
        --  mid-2009, with nearly 175,000 new jobs created since June 2009,
            according to the March Intuit Small Business Employment Index.

        --  Mint.com data shows people change spending behavior given greater
            insight.

WHAT:   Access to consumers and small businesses talking about their money
        matters:

            A broad range of small business owners with concerns that include
            hiring the right employees, growing a business in a recession and
        --  employee benefits. Everyday people with diverse monetary concerns,
            including unemployed, new home owners, new parents, and people on
            set incomes.

            New small business data that indicate economic trends for the
        --  overall economy. This includes the April Intuit Small Business
            Employment Index based on recent employment numbers from Intuit's
            online payroll offering.

        --  Intuit product announcements that help consumers understand their
            money.

WHY:    The Great Recession has taught Americans a tough lesson: They can't
        afford to ignore money matters.

        Wrapping up Financial Literacy Month, Intuit's "Money Matters" Town Hall
        will feature three sessions for consumers and small businesses, focusing
        on managing finances when understanding and knowing your money has never
        mattered more.

        Building on the success of last year's Intuit's Town Hall series, this
        year's event will shift focus from recession to recovery. Participants
        will share insights and learn from experts and each other on how to
        survive and thrive in the "recovery" economy.

        Adding a new perspective, the third session will focus on kids and
        money, recognizing the long-term effects the recession will have on
        today's youth.

        Intuit's mission is to help improve people's financial lives. Through
        the Town Hall series, Intuit will hear from consumers and small business
        owners who are adjusting to the "new normal" and are finding new ways to
        save and make money.
