Exhibit 13

BROOKSIDE TECHNOLOGY HOLDINGS CORP.

CODE OF BUSINESS CONDUCT & ETHICS

Overview

The following principles support and guide our leadership in establishing the strategic direction of Brookside Technology Holdings Corp., (including its subsidiaries, “Brookside”). Our directors, officers and employees are expected to conduct their business in accordance with these ethical principles. We must do more than be compliant with laws, regulations and policies. We must work according to our ethical principles and endeavor to conduct ourselves in a manner beyond reproach. Any employee who ignores or violates any of Brookside’s ethical standards, or who penalizes a subordinate for trying to follow these ethical standards, will be subject to corrective action, including immediate dismissal. However, it is not the threat of discipline that should govern your actions. Brookside’s reputation is based on the personal integrity of each of its employees and those with whom we do business. A dedicated commitment to ethical behavior is the right thing to do, is good business, and is the surest way for Brookside to remain a national business leader, employer of choice and good corporate citizen.

In the final analysis, you are the guardian of Brookside’s ethics. While there are no universal rules, when in doubt ask yourself: “Would I be proud to explain my actions to my family or fellow employees — or to the millions of people who see the nightly news or read the newspaper?” If not, don’t do it!

Ethics

Brookside, and each of its directors, officers and employees, wherever they may be located, must conduct their affairs with uncompromising honesty and integrity. Business ethics are no different than personal ethics. The same high standard applies to both. As a Brookside employee, you are required to adhere to the highest standard regardless of local custom.

Brookside personnel are expected to be honest and ethical in dealing with each other, with clients, vendors and all other third parties. Doing the right thing means doing it right every time.

You must also respect the rights of your fellow employees and third parties. Your actions must be free from discrimination, libel, slander or harassment. Each person must be treated with dignity and respect and accorded equal opportunity, regardless of age, race, sex, sexual preference, color, creed, religion, national origin, marital status, veteran’s status, handicap or disability.

Misconduct cannot be excused because it was directed or requested by another. In this regard, you are expected to alert management whenever an illegal, dishonest or unethical act is discovered or suspected. You will never be penalized for reporting your discoveries or suspicions.

Brookside conducts its affairs consistent with the applicable laws and regulations of the United States. As a Brookside employee, you are expected to comply with all such applicable laws and regulations.

The following statements concern frequently raised ethical concerns. A violation of the standards contained in this Code of Business Conduct & Ethics will result in corrective action, including possible dismissal.

Conflicts of Interest

You must avoid any personal activity, investment or association which could appear to interfere with Brookside’s best interests. You may not exploit your position or relationship with Brookside for personal gain. You should avoid even the appearance of such a conflict. Therefore, if you are related in any way to a vendor, customer or other provider, you should not be the one to decide whether Brookside will to do business with that person.

As other examples, there is a likely conflict of interest if you:

	•		cause Brookside to engage in business transactions with you or your relatives or friends or entities controlled by you or them;

	•		use nonpublic Brookside, client or vendor information for personal gain by you, relatives or friends (including securities transactions based on such information);

	•		have more than a modest financial interest in Brookside’s vendors, clients or competitors;

	•		receive a loan, or guarantee of obligations, from Brookside or a third party as a result of your position at Brookside; or

	•		compete, or prepare to compete, with Brookside while still employed by Brookside.

There are other situations in which a conflict of interest may arise. If you have concerns about any situation, follow the steps outlined in the section on “Reporting Violations.”

To ensure that material transactions and relationships involving a potential conflict of interest for any officer or director are in the best interests of Brookside, the Board must approve in advance all transactions and relationships in which an officer or a director, or any member of any such person’s family, may have a personal interest or other potential conflict of interest. No director, officer or employee may, on behalf of Brookside, authorize or approve any transaction or relationship, or enter into any agreement, in which any director, officer or any member of his or her immediate family, may have a personal interest without such Board approval.

Gifts, Bribes and Kickbacks

Other than for modest gifts given or received in the normal course of business (including travel or entertainment), neither you nor your relatives may give gifts to, or receive gifts from, Brookside’s clients and vendors. Other gifts may be given or accepted only with prior approval of your senior management. In no event should you put Brookside or yourself in a position that would be embarrassing if the gift was made public.

Dealing with government employees is often different than dealing with private persons. Many governmental bodies strictly prohibit the receipt of any gratuities by their employees, including meals and entertainment. You must be aware of and strictly follow these prohibitions.

Any Brookside personnel who pays or receives bribes or kickbacks will be immediately terminated and reported, as warranted, to the appropriate authorities. A kickback or bribe includes any item intended to improperly obtain favorable treatment.

This will help ensure the safeguarding of Brookside’s assets and the accuracy of our financial records and reports. Brookside has adopted various types of internal controls and procedures as required to meet internal needs and applicable laws and regulations. Brookside expects all personnel to follow these controls and procedures to assure the complete and accurate recording of all transactions.

No one may interfere with or seek to improperly influence (directly or indirectly) the review or auditing of our financial records by our Board of Directors.

If a director, officer or employee becomes aware of any questionable transaction or accounting practice concerning Brookside or its assets, or material off-balance-sheet transactions, arrangements and obligations, contingent or otherwise, and other Brookside relationships with unconsolidated entities or other persons that may have material current or future effects on Brookside’s financial condition or results of operations, Brookside expects the matter to be reported immediately to Brookside’s legal counsel or to a member of our Board of Directors.
