3. FAIR VALUE AND OFF-BALANCE SHEET RISK

The nature of this Partnership has certain risks, which cannot be presented on
the financial statements. The following summarizes some of those risks.

MARKET RISK

Derivative instruments involve varying degrees of off-balance sheet market risk.
Changes in the level or volatility of interest rates, foreign currency exchange
rates or the market values of the financial instruments or commodities
underlying such derivative instruments frequently result in changes in the
Partnership's net unrealized profit on such derivative instruments as reflected
in the Statements of Financial Condition. The Partnership's exposure to market
risk is influenced by a number of factors, including the relationships among the
derivative instruments held by the Partnership as well as the volatility and
liquidity of the markets in which the derivative instruments are traded.

The General Partner, Merrill Lynch Investment Managers LLC ("MLIM LLC"), has
procedures in place intended to control market risk exposure, although there can
be no assurance that they will, in fact, succeed in doing so. These procedures
focus primarily on monitoring the trading of the Advisors, calculating the Net
Asset Value of the Partnership as of the close of business on each day and
reviewing outstanding positions for over-concentrations. While MLIM LLC does not
itself intervene in the markets to hedge or diversify the Partnership's market
exposure, MLIM LLC may urge the Advisors to reallocate positions in an attempt
to avoid over-concentrations. However, such interventions are unusual. Except in
cases in which it appears that the Advisors have begun to deviate from past
practice or trading policies or to be trading erratically, MLIM LLC's basic risk
control procedures consist simply of the ongoing process of advisor monitoring,
with the market risk controls being applied by the Advisors themselves.

CREDIT RISK

The risks associated with exchange-traded contracts are typically perceived to
be less than those associated with over-the-counter (non-exchange-traded)
transactions, because exchanges typically (but not universally) provide
clearinghouse arrangements in which the collective credit (in some cases limited
in amount, in some cases not) of the members of the exchange is pledged to
support the financial integrity of the exchange. In over-the-counter
transactions, on the other hand, traders must rely solely on the credit of their
respective individual counterparties. Margins, which may be subject to loss in
the event of a default, are generally required in exchange trading, and
counterparties may also require margin in the over-the-counter markets.

The credit risk associated with these instruments from counterparty
nonperformance is the net unrealized profit, if any, included in the Statements
of Financial Condition. The Partnership attempts to mitigate this risk by
dealing exclusively with Merrill Lynch entities as clearing brokers.

The Partnership, in its normal course of business, enters into various
contracts, with Merrill Lynch Pierce Fenner & Smith Inc. ("MLPF&S") acting as
its commodity broker. Pursuant to the brokerage agreement with MLPF&S (which
includes a netting arrangement), to the extent that such trading results in
receivables from and payables to MLPF&S, these receivables and payables are
offset and reported as a net receivable or payable and included in the
Statements of Financial Condition under Equity in commodity futures trading
accounts.

Performance Summary

JANUARY 1, 2004 TO JUNE 30, 2004

January 1, 2004 to March 31, 2004

The Partnership experienced gains in all sectors, with most of the gains in the
metals sector.

The metals sector was profitable throughout the quarter. In January, the
Partnership profited from its long exposure. Copper rose to its highest price in
more than six years and gold climbed to highs not seen since 1988. In February,
both precious and industrial metals generated positive returns from the long
side. Base metals, with the exception of nickel, continued their upward trend as
the sector reacted to strong demand, shrinking supply and U.S. dollar weakness.
Strong demand for copper and continued speculative interest pushed the market to
a seven-year high. In March, industrial metals generated minor losses. Precious
metals contributed profits.

Agricultural commodities posted gains for the quarter. Small gains were posted
in January as the USDA cut its forecast for both soybean and corn supplies which
sent prices surging for each. In February, grains markets extended their
long-term rally, with corn and soybeans being pushed to seven and 15-year highs
on strong demand and low stockpiles. Grain markets continued to extend their
long-term rally, with corn, soybeans, and soymeal being pushed higher on strong
demand from Asia and lower estimate of supply from South America in March.

The currency sector posted net gains for the quarter despite losses in March.
Currency trading was volatile in January, but gains were experienced as the
Partnership benefited in the early part of the month from the U.S. dollar's
continued slide. These gains were cut short when European Central Bank officials
started to issue strong rhetoric designed to slow the appreciation of the Euro.
Gains were posted in February despite the volatility in the market. The U.S.
dollar was stagnate after the G-7 Finance Ministers meeting, but the Partnership
was able to extract positive returns from long Australian dollar and British
pound positions. Japanese yen and Swiss franc exposure detracted from
performance. In March, the currency sector posted a loss under difficult trading
conditions. All of the political events during the month and rumors of the Bank
of Japan's intervention policies created significant uncertainty in the markets.
The U.S. dollar strength turned around toward the end of the month and a large
drop at the end of the month's close saw the U.S. dollar fall to four year lows
against the Japanese yen.

The energy sector posted gains for the quarter. In January, the energy sector
was profitable, as temperatures remained below normal in the northeastern and
midwestern United States. OPEC output limitations and a weakening U.S. dollar
also contributed to January's rise in the energy prices. In February, crude oil
had a sharp rally early in the month and gradually sold off, as the markets
became complacent about the OPEC meeting. After the OPEC decision to cut
production by 1.5 million barrels per day on February 10, the market resumed its
upward trend. In March, the energy sector posted a small loss under extremely
volatile market conditions. The crude oil market had very choppy performance
during the month, as did the heating oil market.

7


Stock indices posted gains for the quarter as well. The main drivers to
performance early in the quarter were the Xetra DAX, the S&P 500 and the Taiwan
Stock Indices. In March, stock indices posted a loss. The Partnership's long
bias to various global equity indices was changed during March to hold more
short and neutral positions. Long Nikkei profits were overcome by losses in long
exposure to European equities, which later flipped to short positions by
month-end.

Gains were experienced in the interest rate sector despite losses in January and
March. Early in the quarter, profits were generated from various positions at
the short end of the yield curve in Canada and Europe, while losses were posted
at longer points in the curve in both the United States and Europe. In February,
gains were posted as the Partnership's interest rate exposure remains in the
lower end of its historical range. In March, long exposure to most of the major
global yield curves proved to generate positive results. German Bunds posted
gains, while short U.S. ten-year bonds hurt performance in the beginning of the
month.

April 1, 2004 to June 30, 2004

The Partnership experienced slight gain in the energy sector for the second
quarter. All other sectors experienced losses.

The energy sector was the only profitable sector for the quarter. Crude oil
rallied more than 4% in April, while natural gas exhibited heightened
volatility. The price of crude oil continued to climb throughout the month of
May. The cost of light sweet crude breached $40 per barrel, as global demand
accelerated and lingering political uncertainties in the Middle East added a
considerable risk premium to the market. The quarter ended with the sector
posting a loss as markets sold-off early in the month when OPEC agreed to
provide more supply, while U.S. inventory levels showed a gradual increase.

The stock index sector posted a slight loss for the Partnership. In April, the
concern for higher interest rates sent equities falling during the latter half
of the month. The month ended with loss in global equities outweighing gains
experienced in the U.S. markets. Stock indices continued to post losses in May.
Equities weakened worldwide due to concerns about imminent rate increases in the
United States. The Japanese Nikkei index had a particularly difficult month as
investors focused on Japan's oil dependence in the face of record high crude
prices. The month of June brought some profits. Volatility in the sector was
very low however, there was not much of a clear direction in the markets.
Exposure to the U.S. and European markets outweighed losses in other markets.
Equities continue to be mainly traded on a shorter-term basis.

The agricultural commodity sector posted a loss for the Partnership. However,
short positions across a number of agricultural contracts resulted in a gain for
the Partnership in April. Most markets reversed their upward trend based on
concerns that demand from China would slow. Long exposure to the soybean complex
also mitigated losses overall. There were losses posted during the month of May,
which outweighed profits from both April and June. Soybean prices fell sharply
as ideal weather conditions persisted in the Midwest and exports failed to
materialize. Demand from China and diminishing supplies had kept prices high for
quite some time. Losses on positions in the soybean complex overshadowed gains
the Partnership made in its livestock positions. The month of June posted a
slight gain for this sector. Cotton prices dropped 14% during the month allowing
short exposures to generate profits. Corn also posted a significant decline
during the month causing the portfolio to adjust positions from long to short.
Corn experienced a dramatic improvement in estimates of acreage and yields, due
to high prices and positive weather conditions.

8


The interest rate sector produced losses for the Partnership. During the
beginning of the quarter, the market focused on growing expectation of higher
U.S. interest rates and began to prepare for the initial rate increase by the
U.S. Federal Reserve. The quarter ended with bonds continuing to be fairly range
bound pending the release of economic data and action by the U.S. Federal
Reserve during the month. The effect of a rising interest rate market created
positive results on short exposures in Europe but was outweighed by losses due
to long exposures in Canada. Gains in Japanese Government Bond trading were
outweighed by losses in trading U.S. fixed income and in trading the European
yield curve in June.

The metal sector posted losses for the Partnership. April was a highly volatile
month. In May, the markets were directionless and remained range bound. Long
exposure to aluminum was the main cause for losses ending the month with net
short exposure to other industrial metals. June also posted a loss from
industrial metals as zinc fell by approximately 11% and copper lost 3%. Metals
exposure continues to be small within the portfolio with a net long bias.

The currency sector produced losses for the Partnership. In April, the impact of
the currency income market coupled with pronouncements from the Chinese central
bank concerning its desire for lenders to tighten their credit standards weighed
heavily on commodities. The currency sector also posted a small loss in May due
to U.S. dollar weakness. The quarter ended with a loss posted in June. Many
currency markets continued to be range bound waiting for the Federal Reserve's
decision on short term interest rates. Most major currencies displayed no clear
direction, but exhibited high intra day volatility. Losses were incurred from
positions in the Australian dollar, Swiss franc, British pound and other major
markets. The portfolio has reestablished its' short bias to the U.S. dollar
versus other major markets.

JANUARY 1, 2003 TO JUNE 30, 2003

January 1, 2003 to March 31, 2003

The Partnership experienced gains in the currency, energy and interest rate and
losses in the stock index, agricultural commodity and metals sectors. Overall,
for the quarter, the Partnership experienced gains.

The currency forward and futures trading had the most significant gains for the
quarter. The weakening U.S. dollar was continuing to decline as it has for over
a year and the Partnership was well positioned to capitalize on its U.S. dollar
positions against other currencies. The largest gains versus the U.S. dollar
during January and February were with the Australian dollar and Canadian dollar.
In March, on hopes that the war with Iraq would be short, the U.S. dollar
strengthened and returned some of the profits earned early in the year.

Energy was a profitable sector for the quarter. With the continuation of the
strike in Venezuela, the tensions with Iraq and the cold winter, long positions
in oil and natural gas were profitable in the beginning of the year. In
February, the best performing month, natural gas prices rose nearly 40% in a
single day citing expected severely cold weather and supply shortages. The
Partnership profited from this event but such volatility caused many of the
Advisors to reduce their long positions. This helped the Partnership retain
profits as prices declined in crude oil and natural gas in March.

Interest rate futures were also profitable for the quarter. February had
significant gains offsetting losses in both January and March. U.S. and European
bonds rallied amid concerns of a global economic slowdown benefiting the
Partnership's long exposures. Selective long/short rate exposure globally was
the main driver to gains generated in the sector. The global fixed income
markets continued their upward climb until mid-March when expectations of a
short conflict in Iraq triggered the liquidation of many fixed income
investments hurting long exposures.

9


Trading in stock indices posted slight losses for the quarter. The market was
choppy throughout the quarter making trading difficult. Most indices recorded
three-month lows in January causing Advisors to flip positions and shorts were
initiated in most major markets. During the rest of the quarter, choppy markets
caused short positions to be covered to protect against the risk of significant
losses.

Trading in agricultural commodities posted losses for the quarter. The
Partnership held positions in sugar, livestock and the soybean complex.
Livestock markets were off in February as Russia imposed an import limit to help
its domestic production. Sugar was to blame for losses in March as prices
reversed and hit a two-month low.

The metals sector had losses for the quarter. Gold drove profits in January as
it continued its run up. The general perception of risks in the financial
markets and the geopolitical situation unfolding was the main driver for the
gold market in January. The Partnership sustained losses in February and March
as the long bias in precious metals hurt the portfolio when gold reversed its
rising trend in February and continued to decline. Gold's appeal as a safe
investment diminished.

April 1, 2003 to June 30, 2003

The Partnership realized gains in the currency and interest rate sectors and
realized losses in the energy, stock indices, metals and the agricultural
commodities sectors. Overall, the Partnership recognized gains for the quarter.

The currency sector was the strongest performer for the Partnership. The U.S.
dollar depreciated against most major currencies throughout most of the second
quarter. The currency markets judged the developments in the Middle East as
negative for the U.S. economy and trade, and the U.S. dollar sold off against
most major currencies. The U.S. dollar continued to weaken significantly during
the month of May when U.S. Treasury Secretary Snow indicated he was comfortable
with current declines and that a cheaper U.S. dollar would increase exports. The
U.S. dollar strengthened against most major currencies late June, reversing some
earlier profits.

The interest rate sector generated strong gains during the second quarter
producing significant profits in May. After a mixed start in April, the bond
market rally continued through May despite the stock market recovery. The U.S.,
European and Japanese bond markets reached new highs in June, as investors were
convinced the Federal Reserve would cut short-term rates by 50 basis points.
U.S. fixed income markets were disappointed with the size of the rate cut by the
Federal Reserve and by the realization that further rate cuts would remain far
in the future. Economic news out of the Eurozone confirmed economic stagnation.

The energy markets produced a small loss for the quarter. In April and May, the
markets were dominated by the developments in the Middle East, especially OPEC's
reaction to the developments in Iraq. Production in Iraq was not being resumed
as initially estimated even though the destruction of their oilfields was
smaller than expected. The SARS epidemic was expected to reduce the demand for
jet fuel, which the markets extrapolated to affect crude oil prices. Natural gas
was very volatile during June.

Trading in stock indices posted losses for the second quarter. The U.S. and
European markets outperformed the Asian/Pacific markets during in May. Short
positions in Europe and the U.S. were covered as the equity markets staged a
postwar recovery, causing exposures to flip from long to flat after losses were
realized. Gains were generated in trading the DAX and various Pacific-rim
indices during June.

The metals sector generated losses this quarter. Short positions in base metals
and precious metals contributed to losses in the sector. Gold generated losses
in June reacting to a U.S. dollar sell off.

10


Trading in agricultural commodities produced the largest loss for the second
quarter. The sector posted gains in April, mainly from soybeans, which rallied
due to revisions in crop estimates and weather overseas. Supply and demand drove
the livestock market to slightly higher volatility levels in June, creating
losses that offset earlier gains in the quarter. Losses were posted in the
livestock, oil seed and grains.
