New Horizon Asset Management
Group, LLC's Business Continutity Planning
New Horizons Asset Management Group, LLC 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.
Contacting Us - If after a significant business disruption
you cannot contact us as you usually do at (845) 567 3930 or
email newhorizons@NHAMG.com you should call our alternative
number (845) 905-9000, or go to our web site at www.nhamg.com.
If you cannot access us through either of those means, you should
contact our clearing firm, National Financial Services at 1-617-563-5977
to place a trade, transfer funds, request funds or general customer
in the event of a significant business disruption. If your account
are held direct at the Mutual Fund or Annuity Company, please
call the 800 number on your last MutualFund/Annuity Statement
to place a trade, transfer funds, request funds or general customer
in the event of a significant business disruption.
Our Business Continuity Plan - 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, Fiserv Securities,, 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 24 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 24 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 24 hours. In either situation, we plan to continue
in business, transfer operations to our clearing firm if necessary,
and notify you through our web site www. Nhamg.com or our customer
emergency number, (845) 905-9000 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.

business continuity planning, you can contact us at (845) 567
