Business Continuity Plan

DST Investment Advisors, LLC , MEMBER FINRA, SIPC DST Investment Advisors LLC, A SEC REGISTERED INVESTMENT ADVISER 15169 N Scottsdale Rd. #205 Scottsdale, AZ 85254 PHONE (480)-914-1031 WWW.DSTINVESTMENTADVISORS.COM Business Continuity Plan DST INVESTMENT ADVISORS, LLC and (“DSTIA”) are committed to providing reliable, trustworthy service that represents the best interests of our clients. The firm has developed a Business Continuity Plan to protect clients and employees in the event of an emergency or significant business disruption. Since the timing and impact of disasters and disruptions are unpredictable, we anticipate needing to be flexible in responding to actual events as they occur.

The Plan is designed to protect client assets and help prepare for securing employees’ safety and firm property, making financial and operational assessments, promptly recovering and resuming operations, protecting the firm’s books and records, and allowing our clients to transact business and to access their funds and securities. In short, our Business Continuity Plan is designed to permit our firm to resume operations as quickly as possible, given the scope and severity of the significant business disruption.

The Business Continuity Plan considers various scenarios that range in severity – from just our office to the entire building, to our local area, to a regional level. In the event DSTIA’s office location is inaccessible, alternative locations have been established and prepared to facilitate business operations. The firm has redundancies in place for its business-critical systems and our phone system has a forwarding feature when it is not working. Depending on the severity of the issue, we believe that we can resume most business functions within the same day as the disruption. Our goal in all situations is to return to normal business conditions as soon as possible, with minimal impact to our clients and employees. In an extreme situation where continuing business may not be possible or practical, DSTIA ensure clients the ability to transact business and to access to their funds and securities.

Custody of Assets

Our clearing firm backs up our important records in a geographically separate area. While every emergency situation poses unique problems based on external factors, such as time of day and the severity of the disruption, we have been advised by our clearing firm that should it experience a significant business disruption, its objective is to provide the best possible recovery to our firm and clients.

Clients with accounts held directly at a mutual fund, annuity, life insurance or other financial services company will have the ability to call those respective companies directly, if needed.
