Business Continuity Plan

Rockefeller Capital Management has developed a Business Continuity Plan to manage and mitigate the impact of events that have the potential to cause significant business disruption. Since the timing and impact of disasters and disruptions is unpredictable, the Business Continuity Plan needs to be flexible in responding to actual events as they transpire. Consequently, the Business Continuity Plan is designed to enable us to recover and return to business operations as quickly as possible.

We believe that we have implemented reasonable measures to quickly resume business operations after a significant business disruption and safeguard our employees, property, and books and records. The Business Continuity Plan addresses data backup and recovery, all mission critical systems, financial and operational assessments, alternative communications with customers, employees, and regulators, alternate physical locations for our employees, critical supplier, bank, and counter-party impact, and regulatory reporting requirements. 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 clearing firm, National Financial Services, 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 as soon as practicable. Your orders and requests for funds and securities could be delayed during this period.

Significant business disruptions can vary in their scope, such as affecting 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. 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 as soon as practicable. In either situation, we plan to continue in business, transfer operations to our clearing firm if necessary, and notify you through our website (www.rockco.com), or our main number, (212) 549-5100. 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.
