1. Business Conduct and Ethics Brief

2. President’s Letter Dear Colleague:
Academy Solutions Group, LLC is committed to the highest professional and ethical standards in conducting business. Accordingly, we have tried to capture some of the most salient points to help guide us in our dealings with the Government, other companies, and individuals. Rather than being a list of do’s and don’ts, our ethics document is an outline of our philosophy of how we do business. It is part of our corporate culture and how we do business. Consequently, we expect the same level of conduct and ethics in dealing with other companies.
Please take a moment to review our Business Conduct and Ethics document to familiarize yourself with
our philosophy on how we will operate as a company and as individuals. If you have questions, feel free to contact me to discuss. Additionally, if you have suggestions on how to improve our document, they are welcomed and will be considered for incorporation into our document.
Our Government customers, our business partners, and the folks we deal with on a daily basis are key to the long‐term success of our company and we will continue to engage them in business in an ethical manner. Thank you for your role in ensuring that ASG is known by the quality of our people and the manner in which we conduct business.
Thanks, 
Gregory A. Whaley
President
Academy Solutions Group, LLC

3. Important Ideas
Every year on the cover of a Girl Scout cookie box there is a slogan; “courage, confidence and character”. These are important ideas that we would all like to support because they help our community to develop good citizens; and the cookies taste good as well. We understand this slogan and want to live by these ideas. It is the “grey areas” in business where good conduct or ethical decision making is not readily apparent, that we need additional discussion and policy. The purpose of this ASG business conduct and ethics policy is to identify and define what goals and values we cherish; and to assist our people in good decision making.

4. Minimum Standards of Conduct
Our USA military honor code still expresses what most of us in the Defense Industry expect from ourselves and our colleagues in the business work place and that is; “We will not lie, cheat or steal nor tolerate those that do.”

Academy Solutions Group, LLC is committed to establish and sustain effective business ethics and compliance programs that reflect our commitment to self‐governance, and encourage our colleagues to report suspected misconduct, forbid retaliation for such reporting, and ensure the existence of a process for mandatory and voluntary disclosures of violations of relevant laws and regulations. 4. Academy Solutions Group, LLC is committed to follow Defense Industry best practices, in terms of business conduct and ethics, through educational forums, compliance programs and reporting. These annual reports will describe our efforts to build and sustain a strong culture of business ethics and compliance.
