The Destra Multi-Alternative Fund (the “Fund” or “DMA”), a
closed-end fund traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the

approved a monthly distribution policy for shareholders beginning
in March of 2025 and have declared per share dividends for March,
April, and May 2025. These announcements are detailed below:

“The approval of monthly distributions by our Board of Trustees
reflects our steady financial improvement and our commitment to
delivering on shareholder value,” said Robert A. Watson, CFP®,
President of the Fund. “The distribution rate of $0.0725 cents per
share, which the Board has approved for the next three months,
reflects an ~8% annualized rate at the NAV as of February 24th of
$10.88 per share and that corresponds to an ~10.22% annualized rate
at the closing MKT price on the same date of $8.52.”
“We are pleased by the steady progress we have been able to
make, shifting more and more of the Fund’s portfolio into more
liquid, dynamic alpha seeking hedging strategies that we have
developed over many years here at Validex,” said Mark Scalzo,
Portfolio Manager and CIO of Validex Global Investing, the Fund’s
Sub-Adviser.
The Fund offers a Dividend Reinvestment Plan (“DRP”).
Shareholders who hold their shares at a broker dealer and would
like to participate in the DRP should contact their broker dealer
to set their reinvestment preferences. Shareholders who hold their
shares directly with the Fund will have all dividends declared on
the shares automatically reinvested in additional shares by the
Fund’s plan agent, Equiniti Trust Company, LLC (“EQ”), unless the
shareholder elects otherwise by contacting EQ. Shareholders who
elect not to participate in the DRP will receive all dividends and
other distributions in cash, paid by check and mailed directly to
the shareholder of record. Shareholders may obtain more information
on the shareholder services offered to the Fund by calling EQ at
the Fund’s dedicated toll free number 800-591-8238.
A portion of each distribution may be treated as paid from
sources other than net investment income, including but not limited
to short-term capital gain, long-term capital gain, or return of
capital. As required by Section 19(a) of the Investment Company Act
of 1940 and Rule 19a-1 thereunder, a notice will be distributed to
shareholders in the event that a portion of a monthly distribution
is derived from sources other than undistributed net investment
income. The final determination of the source and tax
characteristics of these distributions will depend upon the Fund’s
investment experience during its fiscal year and will be made after
the Fund’s fiscal year end. The Fund will send shareholders a Form
1099-DIV for the calendar year that will define how to report these
distributions for federal income tax purposes, but shareholders
should consult their own tax advisers regarding their specific tax
situations and to obtain a complete understanding of the tax
consequences. For further information regarding the Fund’s
