en policies and procedures to adequately prevent violations of the Federal securities laws including, undisclosed conflicts of interest, material misstatements or omissions of information in certain disclosure documents of Alpine Series Trust and books and recordkeeping inadequacies relating to such investments and allocations.</P>
