4 AAR We own it: an introduction to our Code We own it: an introduction to our Code What is our C ode? At AAR, we are constantly searching for new ways to enhance our business and to find new solutions for our customers. The one consistent theme, however, is our commitment to “Doing It Right” for our customers, our fellow employees, our third-party business partners, our stockholders and our communities. That means acting with integrity and honesty every day and making sure that our business decisions demonstrate these values, too. The AAR Code of Conduct provides guidance to help us make good decisions and act with integrity, even in situations where the right course of action might not always be clear or easy. How we own it • We have a responsibility to follow the guidance in the Code, as well as the laws and regulations that apply to our work in the locations where we do business. • If there is ever a conflict between these laws and regulations and the guidance in our Code, we should ask for help from a resource listed in the “Speaking Up” section of our Code before taking action. Who must follow our C ode? Just as everyone at AAR shares the same commitment to mak ing sure we provide high-quality, safe solutions and services that exceed our customers’ expectations, we are also dedicated to acting with integrity. Whether you are an employee, officer or director at AAR, you are expected to follow our Code, as well as the letter and spirit of the law. In addition, we expect our third-party business partners, such as contractors, agents, consultants, representatives and others who may be temporarily assigned to perform work or services, to meet our high ethical standards and follow the guidance set forth in our Code. If you see that a third-party business partner is not living up to our standards, speak up.
