DISCLOSURES
FIRM DISCLOSURES
Disclosure: Belle Haven Investments, the "firm," is defined as a fixed income manager of separately managed and sub-advised portfolios. Bell Haven manages taxable and tax-sensitive accounts which invest in U.S. municipal, corporate, government and treasury securities. Not included in the "firm" is the broker/dealer group of Belle Haven Investments. Belle Haven's investment philosophy seeks to capitalize on structural inefficiencies in the fixed income markets through a bottom-up approach; identifying undervalued securities due to transaction size, optionality, and/or credit, among other characteristics. For composite and compliance purposes "the firm" is defined as all separately managed and sub-advised fully discretionary portfolios. Non-discretionary portfolios are not included.
Account
returns are calculated using a time-weighted return methodology.
composite returns are calculated using asset-weighted account returns.
All returns and valuations are calculated using U.S. Dollars and are
based on trade date accounting. All accounts in the composite are fee
paying. Gross of fees returns are calculated gross of management fees
and net of custodial fees and transaction costs. Net of fees returns
are calculated net of management fees, custodial fees and transaction
costs.
"Quarterly management fees are
billed in arrears in the month following the end of the calendar
quarter. Significant changes in assets under management will not result
in an appropriate matching of assets under management and management
fees attributable to that particular period."
Actual
Performance results may differ from composite returns, depending on the
size of the account, investment guidelines and/of restrictions,
inception date and other factors. Past performance is not indicative of
future results. Performance results for the accounts included in the
Composite include the reinvestment of dividends and other earnings. As
with any investment vehicle, there is always the potential for gains as
well as the possibility of losses. For a complete list of Belle Haven
Investments composites and/or for additional information regarding

BUSINESS CONTINUITY PLAN
Belle Haven Investments, L.P. has developed a Business Continuity Plan on how we will respond to events that significantly disrupt our business. Since the timing and impact of disasters and disruptions is unpredictable, we will have to be flexible in responding to actual events as they occur. With that in mind, we are providing you with this information on our business continuity plan.
If after a significant business disruption you cannot contact us as you usually do at 203-629-3323, you should call our alternative number 914-763-6193 or go to our emergency web site at, www.bellehaveninvestments.blogspot.com If you cannot access us through either of those means, you should contact our clearing firm, Pershing LLC, at 201-413-2572 and web site, www.pershing.com, for instructions on how it may provide prompt access to funds and securities, enter closing security transactions and process any other trade or account related transactions. The specific procedures and requirements for sending transaction requests to Pershing are listed on their web site under Business Continuity/Customer Support.
We plan to quickly recover and resume business operations after a significant business disruption and respond by safeguarding our employees and property, making a financial and operational assessment, protecting the firm's books and records, and allowing our customers to transact business. 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.
Our business continuity plan addresses: data back up and recovery; all mission critical systems; financial and operational assessments; alternative communications with customers, employees, and regulators; alternate physical location of employees; critical supplier, contractor, bank and counter-party impact; regulatory reporting; and assuring our customers prompt access to their funds and securities if we are unable to continue our business.
Our clearing firm, Pershing, LLC, 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 its objective is to restore its own operations and be able to complete existing transactions and accept new transactions and payments within four (4) hours. Your orders and requests for funds and securities could be delayed during this period. Varying Disruptions
Significant business disruptions can vary in their scope, such as only our firm, a single building housing our firm, the business district where our firm is located, the city where we are located, or the whole region. Within each of these areas, the severity of the disruption can also vary from minimal to severe. In a disruption to only our firm or a building housing our firm, we will transfer our operations to a local site when needed and expect to recover and resume business within four (4) hours. In a disruption affecting our business district, city, or region, we will transfer our operations to a site outside of the affected area, and recover and resume business within four (4) hours. In either situation, we plan to continue in business, transfer operations to our clearing firm if necessary, and notify you through our emergency information web site www.bellehaveninvestments.blogspot.com or our customer emergency number, 914-763-6193 how to contact us. If the significant business disruption is so severe that it prevents us from remaining in business, we will assure our customer's prompt access to their funds and securities.
