To

|
To
Our Shareholders (unaudited):
For the
twelve months ended January 31, 2009, the Value Line Aggressive Income Trust had
a loss of 13.42%. Notwithstanding this loss, the Fund outperformed the average
high-yield bond fund, as measured by Lipper Analytical Services(1), which
lost 20.90%, and the Barclays U.S. Corporate High Yield Index(2), a
proxy for the overall high-yield market, which was down 20.67% for the same
period.
The past
year was one of the most challenging in the roughly 20-year history of the
high-yield bond asset class. The combination of a weak domestic housing market
and a contraction in the U.S. economy in the second half of the year led to a
significant tightening of credit conditions for corporate debt securities. Yield
spreads between U.S. Treasuries and high-yield corporate debt widened notably.
This was partly due to forecasts for a significant increase in defaults for
corporate securities. Moody’s expects the default rate to increase to the
mid-teen level by year end 2009, from the roughly 5% level at the end of 2008.
While the Federal Reserve has reduced short-term interest rates to practically
zero and introduced a series of financial bailout programs with the U.S.
Treasury, it would seem that the market needs more time to work off the excesses
of the past few years.
Given
this backdrop, the Fund has limited its investment holdings in the lowest rated
securities (CCC), and has maintained a relatively high cash position of over
10%, both of which helped performance during the past year. As attractive
investment opportunities present themselves, we will invest some of this cash to
increase the current yield of the Fund.
Given the
current economic concerns, we continue to focus our investments in the more
liquid and stronger credits available in the high-yield sector. Energy-related
securities continue to account for the largest sector weighting of the Fund,
although some reduction in this area has taken place in the past six months.
Preserving capital in difficult market environments, while allowing for an
attractive dividend yield, remains our goal. We thank you for your continued
investment with us.

Economic
Observations (unaudited)
The
recession is in full bloom, having hit this country with its worst business
setback in several generations. Meanwhile, the downturn is spreading overseas
with ferocity, creating a global crisis.
The
current situation is traceable to several events, beginning with the sharp
declines in housing construction, home sales, and real estate prices. We also
have seen a reduction in credit availability, a high level of bank failures,
rising foreclosure rates, increasing unemployment, a contraction in retailing
and auto activity, and sharp declines in manufacturing and nonmanufacturing.
These developments are consistent with a deep and prolonged recession. As 2009
proceeds, we are facing a serious worldwide contraction that will at best end by
late this year. Government reaction to this global upheaval is likely to involve
attempts to foster infrastructure rebuilding and stabilize employment. It is
hoped that such efforts will shorten the downturn’s duration and reduce its
severity.
Meanwhile,
inflation, which had earlier moved sharply higher in this country due to
dramatic increases in oil, food, and commodity prices, has moderated noticeably,
thanks to even more dramatic declines in energy prices. Our expectation is that,
absent a more potent long-term business expansion than we now project, inflation
should remain in check for the most part over the next year or two. In fact,
there is the possibility that we could see selective bouts of deflation along
the way, especially if consumer demand falters for any extended period of time.
By early next decade, however, the massive government spending now being
undertaken to hopefully lead us out of the recession, will generate somewhat
higher inflation.
Value

The
following graph compares the performance of the Value Line Aggressive Income
Trust to that of the Barclays Capital Aggregate Bond Index and the Barclays
Capital U.S. Corporate High Yield Index. The Value Line Aggressive Income Trust
is a professionally managed mutual fund, while the Indices are not available for
investment and are unmanaged. The returns for the Indices do not reflect
charges, expenses or taxes but do include the reinvestment of dividends. The
comparison is shown for illustrative purposes only.

The
performance data quoted represent past performance and are no guarantee of
future performance. The average annual total returns and growth of an
assumed investment of $10,000 include dividends reinvested and capital
gains distributions accepted in shares. The investment return and
principal value of an investment will fluctuate so that an investment,
when redeemed, may be worth more or less than its original cost. The
performance data and graph do not reflect the deduction of taxes that a
shareholder would pay on trust distributions or the redemption of trust
shares.

TRUST
EXPENSES (unaudited):
|
Example
As a
shareholder of the Trust, you incur ongoing costs, including management fees,
distribution and service (12b-1) fees, and other Trust expenses. This Example is
intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in
the Trust and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in
other mutual funds.
The
Example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the
period and held for the entire period (August 1, 2008 through January 31,
2009).
Actual
Expenses
The first
line of the table below provides information about actual account values and
actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the
amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period.
Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example an $8,600 account value
divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first
line under the heading “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses
you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical
Example for Comparison Purposes
The
second line of the table below provides information about hypothetical account
values and hypothetical expenses based on the Trust’s actual expense ratio and
an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the
Trust’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be
used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the
period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing
in the Trust and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example
with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the
other funds.
Please
note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing
costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs, such as sales charges
(loads), redemption fees, or exchange fees. Therefore, the table is useful in
comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total
costs of owning different funds. In addition, if transactional costs were
included, your costs would have been higher.

1. Significant
Accounting Policies
Value
Line Aggressive Income Trust (the “Trust”) is registered under the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended, as a diversified, open-end management
investment company. The primary investment objective of the Trust is to maximize
current income through investment in a diversified portfolio of high-yield
fixed-income securities. As a secondary investment objective, the Trust will
seek capital appreciation, but only when consistent with its primary objective.
Lower rated or unrated (i.e., high-yield) securities are more likely to react to
developments affecting market risk (general market liquidity) and credit risk
(issuers’ inability to meet principal and interest payments on their
obligations) than are more highly rated securities, which react primarily to
movements in the general level of interest rates. The ability of issuers of debt
securities held by the Trust to meet their obligations may be affected by
economic developments in a specific industry. The following significant
accounting policies are in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles for investment companies. Such policies are consistently followed by
the Trust in the preparation of its financial statements. Generally accepted
accounting principles may require management to make estimates and assumptions
that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
Actual results may differ from those estimates.
(A)
Security Valuation. The Trustees have determined that the value of bonds
and other fixed income corporate securities be calculated on the valuation date
by reference to valuations obtained from an independent pricing service that
determines valuations for normal institutional-size trading units of debt
securities, without exclusive reliance upon quoted prices. This service takes
into account appropriate factors such as institutional-size trading in similar
groups of securities, yield, quality, coupon rate, maturity, type of issue,
trading characteristics and other market data in determining valuations.
Securities, other than bonds and other fixed income securities, not priced in
this manner are valued at the midpoint between the latest available and
representative bid and asked prices or, when stock exchange valuations are used,
at the latest quoted sale price as of the regular close of business of the New
York Stock Exchange on the valuation date. Other assets and securities for which
market valuations are not readily available are valued at their fair value as
the Trustees may determine. In addition, the Trust may use the fair value of a
security when the closing price on the primary exchange where the security is
traded no longer reflects the value of a security due to factors affecting one
or more relevant securities markets or the specific issuer. Short term
instruments with maturities of 60 days or less, at the date of purchase, are
valued at amortized cost which approximates market
value.
(B)
Fair Value Measurements. The Trust adopted Financial Accounting Standards
Board Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, Fair Value
Measurements (“FAS 157”), effective February 1, 2008. In accordance with FAS
157, fair value is defined as the price that the Trust would receive upon
selling an investment in a timely transaction to an independent buyer in the
principal or most advantageous market of the investment. FAS 157 established a
three-tier hierarchy to maximize the use of observable market data and minimize
the use of unobservable inputs and to establish classification of fair value
measurements for disclosure purposes. Inputs refer broadly to the assumptions
that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including
assumptions about risk, for example, the risk inherent in a particular valuation
technique used to measure fair value including such a pricing model and/or the
risk inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. Inputs may be observable
or unobservable. Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions
market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based
on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity.
Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own
assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the
asset or liability
Value
Line Aggressive Income Trust

|
developed
based on the best information available in the circumstances. The three-tier
hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad Levels listed
below.
|
|
•
|
Level
1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical
investments
|
•
|
Level
2 — other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for
similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk,
etc.)
|
•
|
Level
3 — significant unobservable inputs (including the Trust’s own assumptions
in determining the fair value of
investments)

The
following is a summary of the inputs used as of January 31, 2009 in valuing the

For the
year ended January 31, 2009, there were no Level 3 investments.
(C)
Repurchase Agreements. In connection with repurchase agreements, the
Trust’s custodian takes possession of the underlying collateral securities, the
value of which exceeds the principal amount of the repurchase transaction,
including accrued interest. To the extent that any repurchase transaction
exceeds one business day, it is the Trust’s policy to mark-to-market the
collateral on a daily basis to ensure the adequacy of the collateral. In the
event of default of the obligation to repurchase, the Trust has the right to
liquidate the collateral and apply the proceeds in satisfaction of the
obligation. Under certain circumstances, in the event of default or bankruptcy
by the other party to the agreement, realization and/or retention of the
collateral or proceeds may be subject to legal
proceedings.
(D)
Distributions. It is the policy of the Trust to distribute all of its net
investment income to shareholders. Dividends from net investment income will be
declared daily and paid monthly. Net realized capital gains, if any, are
distributed to shareholders annually or more frequently if necessary to comply
with the Internal Revenue Code. Income dividends and capital gains distributions
are automatically reinvested in additional shares of the Trust unless the
shareholder has requested otherwise. Income earned by the Trust on weekends,
holidays and other days on which the Trust is closed for business is declared as
a dividend on the next day on which the Trust is open for
business.
(E)
Federal Income Taxes. It is the Trust’s policy to comply with the
requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment
companies, including the distribution requirements of the Tax Reform Act of
1986, and to distribute all of its taxable income to its shareholders.
Therefore, no federal income tax provision is
required.
(F)
Foreign Currency Translation. The books and records of the Trust are
maintained in U.S. dollars. Assets and liabilities which are denominated in
foreign currencies
Value
Line Aggressive Income Trust
|
|
January
31, 2009
|
are
translated to U.S. dollars at the prevailing rates of exchange. The Trust does
not isolate changes in the value of investments caused by foreign exchange rate
differences from the changes due to other circumstances.
Income
and expenses are translated to U.S. dollars based upon the rates of exchange on
the respective dates of such transactions.
Net
realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from currency fluctuations
realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, the
differences between the U.S. dollar amounts of dividends, interest, and foreign
withholding taxes recorded by the Trust and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the
amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and
losses arise from changes in the value of assets and liabilities, other than
investments, at the end of fiscal period, resulting from changes in the exchange
rates. The effect of the change in foreign exchange rates on the value of
investments is included in realized gain/loss on investments and change in net
unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) on investments.
(G)
Representations and Indemnifications. In the normal course of business,
the Trust enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations and
warranties which provide general indemnifications. The Trust’s maximum exposure
under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that
may be made against the Trust that have not yet occurred. However, based on
experience, the Trust expects the risk of loss to be
remote.
(H)
Security Transactions. Securities transactions are recorded on a trade
date basis. Realized gains and losses from securities transactions are recorded
on the identified-cost basis. Interest income, adjusted for amortization of
discount and premium, is earned from settlement date and recognized on the
accrual basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend
date.
(I)
Accounting for Real Estate Investment Trusts. The Trust
owns shares of Real Estate Investment Trusts (“REITs”) which report information
on the source of their distributions annually. Distributions received from REITs
during the year which represent a return of capital are recorded as a reduction
of cost and distributions which represent a capital gain dividend are recorded
as a realized long-term capital gain on investments.
(J)
Foreign Taxes. The Trust may be subject to foreign taxes on income, gains
on investments, or currency repatriation, a portion of which may be recoverable.
The Trust will accrue such taxes and recoveries as applicable, based upon its
current interpretation of tax rules and regulations that exist in the markets in
which it invests.
(K)
Redemption Fees. The Trust charges a 2% redemption fee on shares held for
less than 120 days. Such fees are retained by the Trust and accounted for as
paid in capital.

During
the year ended January 31, 2009, as permitted under federal income tax
regulations, the Trust elected to defer $498,586 of post-October net capital and
currency losses to the next taxable year.
During
the year ended January 31, 2009, $20,922,783 of the Trust’s capital loss
carryforwards expired.
To the
extent future capital gains are offset by capital losses, the Trust does not
anticipate distributing any such gains to the shareholders. It is uncertain
whether the Trust will be able to realize the benefits of the losses before they
expire.
The tax
composition of dividends to shareholders for the years ended January 31, 2009
and January 31, 2008 were as follows:

Permanent
book-tax differences relating to the classifications of certain distributions
and income in the current year were reclassified within the composition of the
net asset accounts. The Trust increased distributions in excess of net
investment income by $13,960, increased accumulated net realized gain/loss on
investments by $20,936,743 and decreased additional paid-in capital by
$20,922,783. Net assets were not affected by these reclassifications. These
reclassifications are primarily due to differing treatments, for tax purposes,

Investment
Advisory Fee, Service and Distribution Fees and Transactions With
Affiliates
|
On June
30, 2008, Value Line, Inc. (“Value line”) reorganized its investment management
division into EULAV Asset Management, LLC (“EULAV”), a newly formed,
wholly-owned subsidiary. As part of the reorganization, each advisory agreement
was transferred from Value Line to EULAV and EULAV replaced Value Line as the
Trust’s investment adviser. The portfolio managers, who are now employees of
EULAV, have not changed as a result of the reorganization.

January
31, 2009
|
An
advisory fee of $219,501 was paid or payable to Value Line or EULAV, (the
“Adviser”), for the year ended January 31, 2009. This was computed at an annual
rate of 0.75 of 1% per year on the first $100 million of the Trust’s average
daily net assets for the year, and 0.50 of 1% on the average daily net assets in
excess thereof. The Adviser provides research, investment programs and
supervision of the investment portfolio and pays costs of administrative
services and office space. The Adviser also provides persons, satisfactory to
the Trust’s Trustees, to act as officers of the Trust and pays their salaries.
Direct expenses of the Trust are charged to the Trust while common expenses of
the Value Line Funds are allocated proportionately based upon the funds’
respective net assets. The Trust bears all other costs and expenses. Effective
June 1, 2007 and 2008, the Adviser contractually agreed to reduce the Trust’s
advisory fee by 0.40% for one year periods. The fees waived amounted to $117,067
for the year ended January 31, 2009. The Adviser has no right to recoup
previously waived amounts.
The Trust
has a Service and Distribution Plan (the “Plan”). The Plan, adopted pursuant to
Rule 12b-1 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, compensates Value Line
Securities, Inc., (the “Distributor”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Value Line,
for advertising, marketing and distributing the Trust’s shares and for servicing
the Trust’s shareholders at an annual rate of 0.25% of the Trust’s average daily
net assets. Fees amounting to $73,167, before fee waivers, were accrued under
the Plan for the year ended January 31, 2009. Effective June 1, 2007 and 2008,
the Distributor contractually agreed to reduce the 12b-1 fee by 0.10% for one
year periods. The fees waived amounted to $29,267 for the year ended January 31,
2009. The Distributor has no right to recoup previously waived
amounts.
For the
year ended January 31, 2009, the Trust’s expenses were reduced by $3,484 under a
custody credit arrangement with the custodian.
Certain
officers, employees and a director of Value Line, and the Distributor, are also
officers and a Trustee of the Trust. At
January 31, 2009, the officers and Trustee as a group owned 901 shares of
beneficial interest in the Trust, representing less than 1% of the outstanding
shares.
By letter
dated June 15, 2005, the staff of the Northeast Regional Office of the
Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) informed Value Line that it was
conducting an investigation in the matter of Value Line Securities, Inc.
(“VLS”). Value Line has supplied numerous documents to the SEC in response to
its requests and various individuals, including employees and former employees
of Value Line, trustees of the Trust and others, have provided testimony to the
SEC. On May 8, 2008, the SEC issued a formal order of private investigation
regarding whether VLS’ brokerage charges and related expense reimbursements from
the Value Line Funds (“Funds”) during periods prior to 2005 were excessive and
whether adequate disclosure was made to the SEC and the Boards of Directors and
shareholders of the Funds. Thereafter, certain officers of Value Line, who are
former officers of the Funds, asserted their constitutional privilege not to
provide testimony. Value Line has informed the Funds that it believes that the
SEC has completed the fact finding phase of its investigation and Value Line
will seek to settle this matter with the SEC. Although management of Value Line
cannot determine the effect that the investigation will have on Value Line’s
financial statements, it believes that any settlement is likely to be material
to it and has informed the Funds of its belief, in light of settlement
discussions to date, that there are no loss contingencies that should be accrued
or disclosed in the Trust’s financial statements and that the resolution of this
matter is not likely to have a materially adverse effect on the ability of the
Adviser or VLS to perform their respective contracts with the
Trust.
On March
12, 2009, the Adviser contractually agreed to waive .30% of the advisory fee for
the period June 1, 2009 through May 31, 2010 and the Distributor agreed to waive
10% of the Rule 12b-1 fee for the same period.

To
the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of Value Line Aggressive Income
Trust
In our
opinion, the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities, including the
schedule of investments, and the related statements of operations and of changes
in net assets and the financial highlights present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of Value Line Aggressive Income Trust (the
“Trust”) at January 31, 2009, the results of its operations for the year then
ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period
then ended and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period
then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America. These financial statements and financial highlights
(hereafter referred to as “financial statements”) are the responsibility of the
Trust’s management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these
financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company
Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan
and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a
test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial
statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates
made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.
We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at January
31, 2009 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, provide a reasonable
basis for our opinion.

CODE
OF BUSINESS CONDUCT AND ETHICS
As
mandated by the Securities and Exchange Commission, this Code of Business
Conduct and Ethics (this "Code") sets forth legal and ethical standards of
conduct for the directors, officers and employees of Value Line, Inc. and
subsidiaries (the "Company") and the Value Line Mutual Funds. This Code is
intended to deter wrongdoing and to promote the conduct of all Company business
in accordance with high standards of integrity and in compliance with all
applicable laws and regulations. This Code applies to the Company including its
subsidiaries, and each of the Value Line Mutual Funds and applies to each
director and employee including the principal executive officer, principal
financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller of each entity and
persons performing similar functions.
If you
have any questions regarding this Code or its application to you in any
situation, you should contact Mrs. Buttner or Howard Brecher.
Compliance
with Laws, Rules and Regulations
The
Company requires that all employees, officers and directors comply with all
laws, rules and regulations applicable to the Company wherever it does business.
You are expected to use good judgment and common sense in seeking to comply with
all applicable laws, rules and regulations and to ask for advice when you are
uncertain about them.
If you
become aware of the violation of any law, rule or regulation by the Company,
whether by its officers, employees, directors, or any third party doing business
on behalf of the Company, or if you become aware of any violation of this Code,
it is your responsibility to promptly report the matter. You may contact Mrs.
Buttner or another officer of the Company. While it is the Company's desire to
address matters internally, nothing in this Code should discourage you from
reporting any illegal activity, including any violation of the securities laws,
antitrust laws, environmental laws or any other federal, state or foreign law,
rule or regulation, to the appropriate regulatory authority. Employees, officers
and directors shall not discharge, demote, suspend, threaten, harass or in any
other manner discriminate or retaliate against an employee because he or she
reports any such violation, unless it is determined that the report was made
with knowledge that it was false. This Code should not be construed to prohibit
you from testifying, participating or otherwise assisting in any state or
federal administrative, judicial or legislative proceeding or
investigation.
Confidentiality
Employees,
officers and directors must maintain the confidentiality of confidential
information entrusted to them by the Company, except when disclosure is
authorized by the CEO or legally mandated. Confidential information includes
lists of clients, personal information about employees or subscribers and the
like. Unauthorized disclosure of any confidential information is prohibited.
Additionally, employees should take appropriate precautions to ensure that
confidential or sensitive business information is not communicated within the
Company except to employees who have a need to know such information to perform
their responsibilities for the Company.
Third
parties may ask you for information concerning the Company. Employees, officers
and directors (other than the Company's authorized spokespersons) must not
discuss internal Company matters with, or disseminate internal Company
information to, anyone outside the Company, except as directed by the CEO. All
responses to inquiries on behalf of the Company must be approved by the
Company's authorized spokespersons, who are Jean B. Buttner, Howard A. Brecher
or David T. Henigson. If you receive any inquiries of this nature, you must
decline to comment and refer the inquirer to the Company's authorized
spokesperson.
Honest
and Ethical Conduct and Fair Dealing
Employees,
officers and directors should endeavor to deal honestly, ethically and fairly
with the Company's suppliers, customers, competitors and employees. Statements
regarding the Company's products and services must not be untrue, misleading,
deceptive or fraudulent.
Protection
and Proper Use of Corporate Assets
Employees,
officers and directors should seek to protect the Company's assets. Theft,
carelessness and waste have a direct impact on the Company's financial
performance. All of us must use the Company's assets and services solely for
legitimate business purposes of the Company and not for any personal benefit or
the personal benefit of anyone else.
All of us
must always act in the best interests of the Company. You must refrain from
engaging in any activity or having a personal interest that presents a "conflict
of interest." A conflict of interest occurs when your personal interest
interferes with the interests of the Company. A conflict of interest can arise
whenever you, as an officer, director or employee, take action or have an
interest that prevents you from performing your Company duties and
responsibilities honestly, objectively and effectively.
The
Company recognizes that Related Person Transactions (as defined below) can
present potential or actual conflicts of interest and create the appearance that
Company decisions are based on considerations other than the best interests of
the Company and its shareholders. Nevertheless, the Company
recognizes that there are situations where Related Person Transactions may be
in, or may not be inconsistent with, the best interests of the Company and its
shareholders. Therefore, the Company has adopted the procedures set
forth below for the review, approval or ratification of Related Person
Transactions.
For the
purposes of this Code of Conduct and Business Ethics, a "Related Person
Transaction" is a transaction, arrangement or relationship (or any series of
similar transactions, arrangements or relationships) in which the Company
(including any of its subsidiaries) was, is or will be a participant and the
amount involved exceeds $50,000, and in which any Related Person had, has or
will have a direct or indirect material interest; provided, however, that the
following are not Related Person Transactions:
1.
|
the
transaction involves compensation approved by the Company's Compensation
Committee;
|
|
|
2.
|
the
transaction is available to all employees generally;
|
|
|
|
|
3.
|
indebtedness
due from the Related Person for purchases of goods and services is subject
to usual trade terms, for ordinary business travel and expense payments
and for other transactions in the ordinary course of business;
and
|
|
|
4.
|
the
interest of the Related Person arises solely from the ownership of the
Company's Common Stock and all holders of the Company's Common Stock
receive the same benefit on a pro rata
basis.
|
For
purposes of this Code of Business Conduct and Ethics, a "Related Person"
means:
1.
|
any
person who is, or at any time since the beginning of the Company's last
fiscal year was, a director or officer of the Company or a nominee to
become a director of the Company;
|
|
|
2.
|
any
person who is known to be the beneficial owner of 5% or more of the
Company's Common Stock;
|
|
|
|
|
3.
|
any
immediate family member of any of the foregoing persons, which means any
child, stepchild, parent, step-parent, spouse, sibling, mother-in-law,
father-in-law, son-in-law, daughter-in-law, brother-in-law, or
sister-in-law of the director, officer, nominee or 5% or more beneficial
owner, and any person (other than a tenant or employee) sharing the
household of such director, officer, nominee or 5% or more beneficial
owner; and
|
|
|
4.
|
any
firm, corporation or other entity in which any of the foregoing persons is
employed or is a general partner or principal or in a similar position or
in which such person has a 5% or greater beneficial ownership
interest.
|
A Related
Person Transaction shall be consummated or shall continue only if the Audit
Committee shall approve or ratify such transaction and if the transaction is
fair and reasonable to the Company.
Business
Opportunities
All of us
are bound to advance the Company’s business interests when the opportunity to do
so arises. You must not take for yourself personal opportunities that
are discovered through your position with the Company or the use of property or
information of the Company.
Accuracy
of Books and Records and Public Reports
Employees,
officers and directors must honestly and accurately report all Company business
transactions. You are responsible for the accuracy of your records and reports.
Accurate information is essential to the Company's ability to meet legal and
regulatory obligations.
All
Company books, records and accounts shall be maintained in accordance with all
applicable regulations and standards and accurately reflect the true nature of
the transactions they record. The financial statements of the Company shall
conform to generally accepted accounting rules and the Company's accounting
policies. No undisclosed or unrecorded account or fund shall be established for
any purpose. No false or misleading entries shall be made in the Company's books
or records for any reason, and no disbursement of corporate funds or other
corporate property shall be made without adequate supporting
documentation.
It is the
policy of the Company to provide full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable
disclosure in reports and documents filed with, or submitted to, the Securities
and Exchange Commission and in other public communications.
Concerns
Regarding Accounting or Auditing Matters
Anyone
with concerns regarding questionable accounting or auditing matters or
complaints regarding accounting, internal accounting controls or auditing
matters may confidentially, and anonymously if they wish, communicate such
concerns or complaints to any of the Company's officers. A record of all
complaints and concerns received will be provided to a member of the Audit
Committee.
The Audit
Committee will evaluate the merits of any concerns or complaints received by it
and authorize such follow-up actions, if any, as it deems necessary or
appropriate to address the substance of the concern or complaint.
The
Company will not discipline, discriminate against or retaliate against any
employee who reports a complaint or concern, unless it is determined that the
report was made with knowledge that it was false.
Disciplinary
Action
Disciplinary
measures will be taken against:
|
●
|
Any
employee, officer or director who authorizes, directs, approves or
participates in any violation of the Code or of any applicable law, rule
or regulation;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
Any
employee, officer or director who has deliberately failed to report a
violation of the Code or of any applicable law, rule or regulation, who
has concealed any such violation or who has deliberately withheld or
misstated relevant information concerning such a
violation;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
Any
employee, officer or director who retaliates, directly or indirectly, or
encourages others to do so, against any other employee, officer or
director because of a report by that person of a suspected violation of
the Code or of any applicable law, rule or regulation;
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
Any
employee, officer or director who knowingly refers a false allegation of a
violation of the Code or of any applicable law, rule or regulation or who
deliberately abuses the procedures established for investigating suspected
violations of the Code; and
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
Any
employee, officer or director who refuses to return a signed certification
of the Code or who fails to return a signed certification of the Code
after reasonable opportunity to do so.
|
|
|
|
|
●
|
Any
employee, officer or director who is responsible for making or
disseminating malicious or untrue statements about the Company or fellow
employees.
|
In
addition, persons who violate any applicable law, rule or regulation may be
subject to criminal and civil penalties and payment of civil damages to the
Company or third parties.
Dissemination
and Amendment
This Code
shall be distributed to each new employee, officer and director of the Company
upon commencement of his or her employment or other relationship with the
Company and shall also be distributed annually to each employee, officer and
director of the Company, and each employee, officer and director shall certify
that he or she has received, read and understood the Code and has complied with
its terms.
The
Company reserves the right to amend, alter or terminate this Code at any time
for any reason.
