PART I
Item 1. Business.
---------
(a) General development of business. Salomon Smith Barney Global
Diversified Futures Fund L.P. (the "Partnership") is a limited partnership
organized under the partnership laws of the State of New York, on June 15, 1998
to engage in speculative trading of a diversified portfolio of commodity
interests, including futures contracts, options and forwards. The commodity
interests that are traded by the Partnership are volatile and involve a high
degree of market risk.
A Registration Statement on Form S-1 relating to the public offering became
effective on November 25, 1998. Between November 25, 1998 (commencement of
offering period) and February 1, 1999, 33,379 Units were sold at $1,000 per
Unit. Proceeds of the offering were held in an escrow account and were
transferred, along with the general partner's contribution of $337,000, to the
Partnership's trading account on February 2, 1999 when the Partnership commenced
trading. The public offering terminated on April 1, 2000. Sales of additional
Units and additional general partner contributions of Units for the periods
ended December 31, 2000 and 1999, and redemptions of Units for the periods ended
December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000 are reported in the Statement of Partners'
Capital on page F-9 under "Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data".
2
The General Partner has agreed to make capital contributions, if necessary,
so that its general partnership interest will be equal to the greater of (i) 1%
of the partners' contributions to the Partnership or (ii) $25,000. The
Partnership will be liquidated upon the first of the following to occur:
December 31, 2018; the net asset value per Unit falls below $400 as of the close
of any business day; or under certain circumstances as defined in the Limited
Partnership Agreement of the Partnership (the "Limited Partnership Agreement").
Smith Barney Futures Management LLC acts as the general partner (the
"General Partner") of the Partnership. The Partnership's commodity broker is
Salomon Smith Barney Inc. ("SSB"). SSB is an affiliate of the General Partner.
The General Partner is wholly owned by Salomon Smith Barney Holdings Inc.
("SSBHI"), which is the sole owner of SSB. SSBHI is a wholly owned subsidiary of
Citigroup Inc.
The Partnership's trading of futures, forwards and options contracts, if
applicable, on commodities is done on United States of America and foreign
commodity exchanges. It engages in such trading through a commodity brokerage
account maintained with SSB.
As of December 31, 2002, all commodity trading decisions are made for the
Partnership by Campbell & Company, Inc. ("Campbell"), Aspect Capital Ltd.
("Aspect") and Eckhardt Trading Company ("Eckhardt") (collectively, the
"Advisors"). None of the Advisors is affiliated with one another, the General
Partner or SSB. The Advisors are not responsible for the organization or
operation of the Partnership.
Eagle was terminated as an advisor to the Partnership on March 1, 2001.
Effective May 16, 2001, the General Partner added Aspect Capital Limited as an
3
advisor to the Partnership. Effective December 31, 2001 the General Partner
terminated Rabar Market Research Inc. as an advisor to the Partnership and
allocated the assets to Aspect Capital Ltd., an existing advisor to the
Partnership.
Pursuant to the terms of the Management Agreements (the "Management
Agreements"), the Partnership is obligated to pay each Advisor: (i) a monthly
management fee equal to 1/6 of 1% (2% per year) of month-end Net Assets (except
that Eagle's management fee was reduced by Eagle's pro rata share of customary
and routine administrative expenses of the Partnership, and Aspect will receive
a monthly management fee equal to 1/12 of 1.25% (1.25% per year)), allocated to
each Advisor as of the end of each month and (ii) an incentive fee payable
annually equal to 20% of the New Trading Profits, as defined in the Management
Agreements, except Eagle, which was paid an incentive fee of 23% of New Trading
Profits, earned by each Advisor for the Partnership.
The Partnership has entered into a Customer Agreement with SSB (the
"Customer Agreement") which provides that the Partnership pays SSB (i) a monthly
brokerage fee equal to 9/20 of 1% of month-end Net Assets allocated to the
Advisors (5.4% per year) in lieu of brokerage commissions on a per trade basis.
For the period from February 2, 1999 (commencement of trading operations) to
July 31, 1999, the Partnership paid SSB brokerage commissions at $54 per round
turn for transactions entered into by Campbell. SSB pays a portion of its
4
brokerage fees to its financial consultants who have sold Units and who are
registered as associated persons with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission
(the "CFTC"). The Partnership pays for National Futures Association ("NFA")
fees, exchange and clearing fees, give-up and user fees and floor brokerage
fees. The Customer Agreement between the Partnership and SSB gives the
Partnership the legal right to net unrealized gains and losses. Brokerage fees
will be paid for the life of the Partnership, although the rate at which such
fees are paid may be changed.
In addition, SSB pays the Partnership interest on 80% of the average daily
equity maintained in cash in its account during each month at a 30-day U.S.
Treasury bill rate determined weekly by SSB based on the average non-competitive
yield on 3-month U.S. Treasury bills maturing in 30 days from the date on which
such weekly rate is determined.
(b) Financial information about industry segments. The Partnership's
business consists of only one segment, speculative trading of commodity
interests. The Partnership does not engage in sales of goods or services. The
Partnership's net income (loss) from operations for the years ended December 31,
2002, 2001 and 2000 and for the period from February 2, 1999 (commencement of
trading operations) to December 31, 1999 is set forth under "Item 6. Select
Financial Data". Partnership's capital as of December 31, 2002, was $49,391,625.

(i) through (x) - Not applicable.
(xi) through (xii) - Not applicable.
(xiii) - The Partnership has no employees.
(d) Financial Information About Geographic Areas. The Partnership

Item 3. Legal Proceedings.
-----------------
This section describes the major pending legal proceedings, other than
ordinary routine litigation incidental to the business, to which Salomon Smith
Barney Holdings Inc. ("SSBH") or its subsidiaries is a party or to which any of
their property is subject. There are no material legal proceedings pending
against the Partnership or the General Partner.
Salomon Smith Barney Inc. ("SSB") is a New York corporation with its
principal place of business at 388 Greenwich St., New York, New York 10013. SSB
is registered as a broker-dealer and futures commission merchant ("FCM"), and
provides futures brokerage and clearing services for institutional and retail
participants in the futures markets. SSB and its affiliates also provide
investment banking and other financial services for clients worldwide.
There have been no administrative, civil or criminal actions pending, on
6
appeal or concluded against SSB or any of its individual principals within the
past five years that management believes may have a material impact on SSB's
ability to act as an FCM. In the ordinary course of its business, SSB is a party
to various claims and regulatory inquiries. Proceedings deemed to be material
for purposes of Commodity Futures Trading Commission ("CFTC") disclosure
requirements are:
In December 1996, a complaint seeking unspecified monetary damages was
filed by Orange County, California against numerous brokerage firms, including
SSB, in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Central District of California (County
of Orange et al. v. Bear Stearns & Co. Inc. et al.). The complaint alleged,
among other things, that the brokerage firms recommended and sold unsuitable
securities to Orange County. SSB and the remaining brokerage firms settled with
Orange County in mid 1999. SSB paid $1,333,333 to settle this matter.
In June 1998, complaints were filed in the U.S. District Court for the
Eastern District of Louisiana in two actions (Board of Liquidations, City Debt
of the City of New Orleans v. Smith Barney Inc. et ano. and The City of New
Orleans v. Smith Barney Inc. et ano.), in which the City of New Orleans seeks a
determination that Smith Barney Inc. and another underwriter will be responsible
for any damages that the City may incur in the event the Internal Revenue
Service denies tax exempt status to the City's General Obligation Refunding
Bonds Series 1991. The complaints were subsequently amended. SSB has asked the
court to dismiss the amended complaints. The court denied the motion but stayed
7
the case. Subsequently, the City withdrew its lawsuit.
In November 1998, a class action complaint was filed in the U.S. District
Court for the Middle District of Florida (Dwight Brock as Clerk for Collier
County v. Merrill Lynch, et al.). The complaint alleged that, pursuant to a
nationwide conspiracy, 17 broker-dealer defendants, including SSB, charged
excessive mark-ups in connection with advanced refunding transactions. Among
other relief, plaintiffs sought compensatory and punitive damages, restitution
and/or rescission of the transactions and disgorgement of alleged excessive
profits. In October 1999, the plaintiff filed a second amended complaint. In
November 1999, SSB moved to dismiss the amended complaint. In May 2001, the
parties reached and the court preliminarily approved a tentative settlement. SSB
paid $1,063,457 to settle this matter and in September 2001, the court approved
the settlement.
In connection with the Louisiana and Florida matters, the IRS and SEC
conducted an industry-wide investigation into the pricing of Treasury securities
in advanced refunding transactions. In April 2000, SSB and several other
broker-dealers entered into a settlement with the IRS and the SEC. Thereafter,
the plaintiffs filed voluntary discontinuances.
In December 1998, SSB was one of 28 market making firms that reached a
settlement with the SEC in the matter titled In the Matter of Certain Market
Making Activities on NASDAQ. As part of the settlement of that matter, SSB,
without admitting or denying the factual allegations, agreed to an order which
8
required that it: (i) cease and desist from committing or causing any violations
of Sections 15(c)(1) and (2) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and SEC
Rules 15c1-2, 15c2-7 and 17a-3 thereunder, (ii) pay penalties totaling
approximately $760,000 and (iii) submit certain policies and procedures to an
independent consultant for review.
In March 1999, a complaint seeking in excess of $250 million was filed by a
hedge fund and its investment advisor against SSB in the Supreme Court of the
State of New York, County of New York (MKP Master Fund, LDC et al. v. Salomon
Smith Barney Inc.). The complaint included allegations that, while acting as
prime broker for the hedge fund, SSB breached its contracts with plaintiffs,
misused their monies and engaged in tortious conduct, including breaching its
fiduciary duties. SSB asked the court to dismiss the complaint in full. In
October 1999, the court dismissed the tort claims, including the breach of
fiduciary duty claims. The court allowed the breach of contract and conversion
claims to stand. In December 1999, SSB filed an answer and asserted
counterclaims against the investment advisor. In response to plaintiff's motion
to strike out the counterclaims, in January 2000, SSB amended its counterclaims
against the investment advisor to seek indemnification and contribution.
Plaintiffs moved to strike SSB's amended counterclaims in February 2000. In
September 2000, the court denied plaintiffs' motion to dismiss SSB's
counterclaims based on indemnification and contribution. In August 2002, SSB
filed a motion for summary judgment.
9
In April 2002, numerous class action complaints were filed against Salomon
Smith Barney and other investment banks in the U.S. District Court for the
Southern District of New York alleging violations of certain federal securities
laws (including Section 11 of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 10(b) of
the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) with respect to the allocation of shares
for certain initial public offerings and related aftermarket transactions and
damage to investors caused by allegedly biased research analyst reports. On
February 19, 2003, the court issued an opinion denying the defendants' motion to
dismiss. Also pending in the Southern District of New York against SSB and other
investment banks are several alleged class actions which have been consolidated
into a single class action alleging violations of certain federal and state
antitrust laws in connection with the allocation of shares in initial public
offerings underwritten by such parties. The defendants in these actions have
moved to dismiss the consolidated amended complaint but the court has not yet
rendered a decision on those motions.
In April 2002, Citigroup and, in one case, SSB were named as defendants
along with, among others, commercial and/or investment banks, certain current
and former Enron officers and directors, lawyers and accountants in two alleged
consolidated class action complaints that were filed in the U.S. District Court
for the Southern District of Texas seeking unspecified damages. One action,
10
brought on behalf of individuals who purchased Enron securities (Newby, et al.
v. Enron Corp., et al.), alleges violations of Sections 11 and 15 of the
Securities Act of 1933 and Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange
Act of 1934 and the other action, brought on behalf of current and former Enron
employees (Tittle, et al. v. Enron Corp., et al.), alleges violations of ERISA
and RICO, as well as negligence and civil conspiracy. On May 8, 2002, Citigroup
and SSB filed motions to dismiss the complaints. On December 19, 2002, the
motions to dismiss the Newby complaint were denied. The motion to dismiss the
complaint in Tittle remains pending.
Since April 2002, SSB and several other broker dealers have received
subpoenas and/or requests for information from various governmental and
self-regulatory agencies and Congressional committees, including the NASD Inc.
which has raised issues about SSB's internal e-mail retention practices and
research on Winstar Communications, Inc. With respect to Winstar, SSB has
entered into a settlement agreement. SSB agreed to pay a penalty in the amount
of $5 million and did not admit to any wrongdoing. With respect to other such
matters, on December 20, 2002, Citigroup and a number of other broker/dealers
reached a settlement-in-principle with the SEC, the NASD Inc., the New York
Stock Exchange (the "NYSE") and the Attorney General of New York of all issues
raised in their research, initial public offerings allocation and
spinning-related inquiries. In addition, with respect to issues raised by the
NASD, the NYSE and the SEC about SSB's and other firms' e-mail retention
practices, SSB and several other broker/dealers and the NASD, the NYSE and the
11
SEC entered into a settlement agreement in December 2002. SSB agreed to pay a
penalty in the amount of $1.65 million and did not admit to any allegation of
wrongdoing.
Since May 2002, Citigroup, SSB and certain principals, executive officers
and current and former employees have been named as defendants in a number of
alleged class action complaints filed in the U.S. District Court for the
Southern District of New York by purchasers of various securities alleging they
violated federal securities law, including Sections 10 and 20 of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 by issuing research reports without reasonable basis and
failing to disclose conflicts of interest in connection with published
investment research, including Global Crossing, WorldCom, Inc., AT&T, Winstar,
Rhythm Net Connections, Level 3 Communications, MetroMedia Fiber Network, XO
Communications and Williams Communications Group Inc. Nearly all of these
actions are pending before a single judge in the U.S. District Court for the
Southern District of New York for coordinated proceedings. The court has
consolidated these actions into nine separate categories corresponding to the
companies named above.
Additional actions have been filed against Citigroup and certain of its
affiliates, including SSB, and certain of their current and former directors,
officers and employees, along with other parties, including: (1) three putative
class actions filed in state courts and federal courts on behalf of persons who
maintained accounts with SSB asserting, among other things, common law claims,
claims under state statutes, and claims under the Investment Advisers Act of
1940, for allegedly failing to provide objective and unbiased investment
research and investment management, seeking, among other things, return of fees
and commissions; (2) approximately fifteen actions filed in different state
courts by individuals asserting, among other claims, common law claims and
claims under state securities laws, for allegedly issuing research reports
without a reasonable basis in fact and for allegedly failing to disclose
conflicts of interest with companies in connection with published investment
research, including Global Crossing and WorldCom, Inc.; (3) approximately five
actions filed in different state courts by pension and other funds asserting
common law claims and statutory claims under, among other things, state and
federal securities laws, for allegedly issuing research reports without a
reasonable basis in fact and for allegedly failing to disclose conflicts of
interest with companies in connection with published investment research,
including WorldCom, Inc. and Qwest Communications International Inc.; and (4)
more than two hundred arbitrations asserting common law claims and statutory
claims under, among other things, state and federal securities laws, for
12
allegedly issuing research reports without a reasonable basis in fact and for
allegedly failing to disclose conflicts of interest with companies in connection
with published investment research.
In July 2002, Citigroup, SSB and various of its affiliates and certain of
their officers and other employees were named as defendants, along with, among
others, commercial and/or investment banks, certain current and former Enron
13
officers and directors, lawyers and accountants in an alleged class action filed
in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York on behalf of
purchasers of the Yosemite Notes and Enron Credit-Linked Notes, among other
securities (Hudson Soft Co., Ltd v. Credit Suisse First Boston Corporation, et
al.). The complaint alleges violations of RICO and of Sections 10(b) and 20(a)
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and seeks unspecified damages.
Additional actions have been filed against Citigroup and certain of its
affiliates, including SSB, along with other parties, including (i) three actions
brought in state courts by state pension plans for alleged violations of state
securities law and common law fraud and unjust enrichment; (ii) an action by
banks that participated in two Enron revolving credit facilities, alleging
fraud, gross negligence and breach of implied duties in connection with
defendants' administration of a credit facility with Enron; (iii) an action
brought by several funds in connection with secondary market purchases of Enron
Corp. debt securities alleging violations of federal securities law, including
Section 11 of the Securities Act of 1933, and claims for fraud and
misrepresentation; (iv) a series of alleged class actions by purchasers of
NewPower Holdings common stock alleging violations of federal securities law,
including Section 11 of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 10(b) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934; (v) an action brought by two investment funds
in connection with purchases of Enron-related securities for alleged violations
14
of state securities and unfair competition statutes; (vi) an action brought by
several investment funds and fund owners in connection with purchases of notes
of the Osprey I and Osprey II Trusts for alleged violation of state and federal
securities laws and claims for common law fraud, misrepresentation and
conspiracy; (vii) an action brought by several investment funds and fund owners
in connection with purchases of notes of the Osprey I and Osprey II Trusts for
alleged violation of state and federal securities laws and state unfair
competition laws and claims for common law fraud and misrepresentation; (viii)
an action brought by the Attorney General of Connecticut in connection with
various commercial and investment banking services provided to Enron; (ix) a
putative class action brought by clients of SSB in connection with research
reports concerning Enron, alleging breach of contract; (x) actions brought by
several investment funds in connection with the purchase of notes and/or
certificates of the Osprey Trusts, the Marlin Trust, and the Marlin Water trust,
as well as the purchase of other Enron or Enron-related securities, alleging
violation of state and federal securities laws, and common law civil conspiracy
and fraud; (xi) an action brought by a retirement and health benefits plan in
connection with the purchase of certain Enron notes, alleging violation of
federal securities law, including Section 11 of the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended, violations of state securities and unfair competition law, and common
law fraud and breach of fiduciary duty; and (xii) an action brought by two
broker/dealers in connection with the purchase of certain notes, alleging
violation of federal and state securities laws. Several of these cases have been
15
consolidated with the Newby action and stayed pending the Court's decision on
the pending motions of certain defendants to dismiss Newby.
Additionally, Citigroup and certain of its affiliates, including SSB, have
provided substantial information to, and have entered into substantive
discussions with, the Securities and Exchange Commission regarding certain of
their transactions with Enron and a transaction with Dynegy Inc. Citigroup and
certain of its affiliates, including SSB, also have received subpoenas and
requests for information from various other regulatory and governmental agencies
and Congressional committees, as well as from the Special Examiner in the Enron
bankruptcy, regarding certain transactions and business relationships with Enron
and its affiliates. Citigroup and such affiliates, including SSB, are
cooperating fully with all such requests.
Citigroup and SSB are involved in a number of lawsuits arising out of the
underwriting of debt securities of WorldCom, Inc. These lawsuits include
putative class actions filed in July 2002 by alleged purchasers of WorldCom debt
securities in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New
York (Above Paradise Investments Ltd. V. Worldcom, Inc., et al.; Municipal
Police Employees Retirement System Of Louisiana V. Worldcom, Inc., et al.), and
in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Mississippi
(Longacre Master Fund V. Worldcom, Inc., et al.). These putative class action
16
complaints assert violations of federal securities law, including Sections 11
and 12 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and seek unspecified damages
from the underwriters.
On October 11, 2002, the Above Paradise and Municipal Police Employees
lawsuits filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of
New York were superseded by the filing of a consolidated putative class action
complaint in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New
York (In Re Worldcom, Inc. Securities Litigation). In the consolidated
complaint, in addition to the claims of violations by the underwriters of the
federal securities law, including Sections 11 and 12 of the Securities Act of
1933, as amended, the plaintiffs allege violations of Section 10(b) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Rule 10b-5 promulgated
thereunder, by SSB arising out of alleged conflicts of interest of SSB and Jack
Grubman. The plaintiffs continue to seek unspecified compensatory damages. In
addition to the consolidated class action complaint, the Southern District of
Mississippi class action has been transferred by the Judicial Panel on
MultiDistrict Litigation to the Southern District of New York for centralized
pre-trial proceedings with other WorldCom-related actions.
In addition to the several putative class actions that have been commenced,
certain individual actions have been filed in various federal and state courts
against Citigroup and SSB, along with other parties, concerning WorldCom debt
securities including individual state court actions brought by approximately 18
17
pension funds and other institutional investors in connection with the
underwriting of debt securities of WorldCom alleging violations of Section 11 of
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and, in one case, violations of various
state securities laws and common law fraud. Most of these actions have been
removed to federal court and have been transferred to the Southern District of
New York for centralized pre-trial proceedings with other WorldCom-related
actions.
A putative class action on behalf of participants in WorldCom's 401(k)
salary savings plan and those WorldCom benefit plans covered by ERISA alleging
violations of ERISA and common law fraud (Emanuele V. Worldcom, Inc., Et Al.),
which was commenced in the United States District Court for the District of
Columbia, also has been transferred by the Judicial Panel on MultiDistrict
Litigation to the Southern District of New York for centralized pre-trial
proceedings with other WorldCom-related actions. In December 2002, the claims
against SSB and the other underwriters were dismissed without prejudice.
On or about January 27, 2003, lead plaintiff in a consolidated putative
class action in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey
(In Re AT&T Corporation Securities Litgation) sought leave to amend its
complaint on behalf of purchasers of AT&T common stock asserting claims against,
among others, AT&T Corporation, to add as named defendants Citigroup, SSB and
certain executive officers and current and former employees, asserting claims
under federal securities laws for allegedly issuing research reports without a
reasonable basis in fact and for allegedly failing to disclose conflicts of
18
interest with AT&T in connection with published investment research.
On or about January 28, 2003, lead plaintiff in a consolidated putative
class action in the United States District Court for the Southern District of
New York (In Re Global Crossing, Ltd. Securities Litigation) filed a
consolidated complaint on behalf of purchasers of the securities of Global
Crossing and its subsidiaries, which names as defendants, among others,
Citigroup, SSB and certain executive officers and current and former employees,
asserting claims under federal securities laws for allegedly issuing research
reports without a reasonable basis in fact and for allegedly failing to disclose
conflicts of interest with Global Crossing in connection with published
investment research.
SSBHI and various subsidiaries have also been named as defendants in
various matters incident to and typical of the businesses in which they are
engaged. These include numerous civil actions, arbitration proceedings and other
matters in which SSBHI's broker-dealer subsidiaries have been named, arising in
the normal course of business out of activities as a broker and dealer in
securities, as an underwriter of securities, as an investment banker or
otherwise. In the opinion of SSBHI's management, none of these actions is
expected to have a material adverse effect on the results of operations,
consolidated financial condition or liquidity of SSBHI and its subsidiaries.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations.
---------------
(a) Liquidity. The Partnership does not engage in sales of goods or
services. Its only assets are its equity in its commodity futures trading
account, consisting of cash, net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on open
positions and interest receivable. Because of the low margin deposits normally
required in commodity trading, relatively small price movements may result in
substantial losses to the Partnership. Such substantial losses could lead to a
material decrease in liquidity. To minimize this risk, the Partnership follows
certain policies including:
(1) Partnership funds are invested only in commodity interests which are
traded in sufficient volume to permit, in the opinion of the Advisors, ease of
taking and liquidating positions.
(2) The Partnership diversifies its positions among various commodities.
(3) No Advisor initiates additional positions in any commodity if such
additional positions would result in aggregate positions for all commodities
requiring as margin more than 66-2/3% of the Partnership's assets allocated to
the Advisor.
(4) The Partnership may occasionally accept delivery of a commodity. Unless
such delivery is disposed of promptly by retendering the warehouse receipt
representing the delivery to the appropriate clearing house, the physical
commodity position will be fully hedged.
(5) The Partnership will not employ the trading technique commonly known as
"pyramiding", in which the speculator uses unrealized profits on existing
22
positions as margin for the purchase or sale of additional positions in the same
or related commodities.
(6) The Partnership will not utilize borrowings except short-term
borrowings if the Partnership takes delivery of any cash commodities.
(7) The Advisor may, from time to time, employ trading strategies such as
spreads or straddles on behalf of the Partnership. The term "spread" or
"straddle" describes a commodity futures trading strategy involving the
simultaneous buying and selling of futures contracts on the same commodity but
involving different delivery dates or markets and in which the trader expects to
earn a profit from a widening or narrowing of the difference between the prices
of the two contracts.
The Partnership is party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet
risk, including derivative financial instruments and derivative commodity
instruments, in the normal course of its business. These financial instruments
may include forwards, futures and options, whose value is based upon an
underlying asset, index, or reference rate, and generally represent future
commitments to exchange currencies or cash flows, or to purchase or sell other
financial instruments at specified terms at specified future dates. Each of
these instruments is subject to various risks similar to those relating to the
underlying financial instruments including market and credit risk. The General
Partner monitors and controls the Partnership's risk exposure on a daily basis
through financial, credit and risk management monitoring systems and,
23
accordingly believes that it has effective procedures for evaluating and
limiting the credit and market risks to which the Partnership is subject. (See
also Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data, for further
information on financial instrument risk included in the notes to financial
statements).
Other than the risks inherent in commodity trading, the Partnership knows
of no trends, demands, commitments, events or uncertainties which will result in
or which are reasonably likely to result in the Partnership's liquidity
increasing or decreasing in any material way. The Limited Partnership Agreement
provides that the Partnership will cease trading operations and liquidate all
open positions upon the first to occur of the following: (i) December 31, 2018;
(ii) the vote to dissolve the Partnership by limited partners owning more than
50% of the Units; (iii) assignment by the General Partner of all of its interest
in the Partnership or withdrawal, removal, bankruptcy or any other event that
causes the General Partner to cease to be a general partner under the New York
Revised Limited Partnership Act unless the Partnership is continued as described
in the Limited Partnership Agreement; (iv) Net Asset Value per Unit falls to
less than $400 as of the end of any trading day; or (v) the occurrence of any
event which shall make it unlawful for the existence of the Partnership to be
continued.
(b) Capital resources. (i) The Partnership has made no material commitments
for capital expenditures as of the end of the latest fiscal period.
24
(ii) The Partnership's capital consists of the capital contributions of the
partners as increased or decreased by gains or losses on commodity trading, and
by expenses, interest income, redemptions of Units and distributions of profits,
if any. Gains or losses on commodity trading cannot be predicted. Market moves
in commodities are dependent upon fundamental and technical factors which the
Partnership may or may not be able to identify. Partnership expenses will
consist of, among other things, commissions, management fees and incentive fees.
The level of these expenses is dependent upon the level of trading gains or
losses and the ability of the Advisors to identify and take advantage of price
movements in the commodity markets, in addition to the level of net assets
maintained. The amount of interest income payable by SSB is dependent upon
interest rates over which the Partnership has no control.
No forecast can be made as to the level of redemptions in any given period.
A limited partner may cause all or some of his Units to be redeemed by the
Partnership at the Redemption value per Unit thereof as of the last day of any
month ending at least three months after such Units have been issued, on ten
days' notice to the General Partner. No fee is charged for redemptions. For the
year ended December 31, 2002, 8,929.5088 Units were redeemed totaling
$9,615,753. For the year ended December 31, 2001, 8,652.4672 Units were redeemed
totaling $8,812,326. For the year ended December 31, 2000, 38,567.0884 Units
25
were redeemed totaling $34,769,993. Redemption/subscription value per Unit
differs from net asset value per Unit calculated for financial reporting
purposes in that the accrued liability for reimbursement of offering and
organization expenses for the Initial Offering Period will not be included in
the calculation of redemption/subscription value per Unit.
Offering and organization expenses of approximately $700,000, relating to
the issuance and marketing of the Partnership's Units offered were initially
paid by SSB. These costs have been reimbursed to SSB by the Partnership in 24
equal monthly installments (together with interest at the prime rate quoted by
JPMorgan Chase & Co.).
For the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000, $0, $40,661 and
$362,024, respectively, of these costs have been reimbursed to SSB, by the
Partnership.
In addition, the Partnership has recorded interest expense of $0, $161 and
$19,111, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000,
which is included in other expenses.
The Partnership's public offering terminated on April 1, 2000. There were
no additional sales for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001. For the year
ended December 31, 2000, there were additional sales of 6,266.1056 Units
totaling $5,931,000 and contributions by the General Partner representing
125.4784 Units equivalents totaling $120,000.
(c) Results of Operations.
For the year ended December 31, 2002, the Net Asset Value per Unit
26
increased 12.2% from $1,052.23 to $1,180.95. For the year ended December 31,
2001, the Net Asset Value per Unit increased 4.1% from $1,010.52 to $1,052.23.
For the year ended December 31, 2000, the Net Asset Value per Unit increased
6.3% from $950.95 to $1,010.52.
The Partnership experienced net trading gains of $10,210,735 before
commissions and expenses for the year ended December 31, 2002. These gains were
primarily attributable to the trading of currencies, livestock, softs, U.S. and
non-U.S. interest rates and were partially offset by losses recognized in the
trading of metals, grains and energy products.
The Partnership experienced net trading gains of $5,326,102 before
commissions and expenses for the year ended December 31, 2001. Gains were
primarily attributable to the trading of currencies, U.S. and non-U.S. interest
rates, metals, softs and indices and were partially offset by losses recognized
in energy, grains and livestock.
The Partnership experienced net trading gains of $4,598,087 before
commissions and expenses for the year ended December 31, 2000. Gains were
primarily attributable to the trading of currencies, energy products, U.S. and
non- U.S. interest rates and livestock and were partially offset by losses
recognized in grains, indices, metals and softs.
Commodity markets are highly volatile. Broad price fluctuations and rapid
inflation increase the risks involved in commodity trading, but also increase
the possibility of profit. The profitability of the Partnership depends on the
27
existence of major price trends and the ability of the Advisor to identify those
price trends correctly. Price trends are influenced by, among other things,
changing supply and demand relationships, weather, governmental, agricultural,
commercial and trade programs and policies, national and international political
and economic events and changes in interest rates. To the extent that market
trends exist and the Advisor is able to identify them, the Partnership expects
to increase capital through operations.
(d) Operational Risk
The Partnership is directly exposed to market risk and credit risk, which
arise in the normal course of its business activities. Slightly less direct, but
of critical importance, are risks pertaining to operational and back office
support. This is particularly the case in a rapidly changing and increasingly
global environment with increasing transaction volumes and an expansion in the
number and complexity of products in the marketplace.
Such risks include:
Operational/Settlement Risk - the risk of financial and opportunity loss and
legal liability attributable to operational problems, such as inaccurate pricing
of transactions, untimely trade execution, clearance and/or settlement, or the
inability to process large volumes of transactions. The Partnership is subject
to increased risks with respect to its trading activities in emerging market
securities, where clearance, settlement, and custodial risks are often greater
than in more established markets.
28
Technological Risk - the risk of loss attributable to technological limitations
or hardware failure that constrain the Partnership's ability to gather, process,
and communicate information efficiently and securely, without interruption, with
customers, among units within the Partnership, and in the markets where the
Partnership participates.
Legal/Documentation Risk - the risk of loss attributable to deficiencies in the
documentation of transactions (such as trade confirmations) and customer
relationships (such as master netting agreements) or errors that result in
noncompliance with applicable legal and regulatory requirements.
Financial Control Risk - the risk of loss attributable to limitations in
financial systems and controls. Strong financial systems and controls ensure
that assets are safeguarded, that transactions are executed in accordance with
management's authorization, and that financial information utilized by
management and communicated to external parties, including the Partnership's
unitholder, creditors, and regulators, is free of material errors.
(e) Critical Accounting Policies
The General Partner believes that the accounting policies that will be most
critical to the Partnership's financial condition and results of operations
relate to the valuation of the Partnership's positions. The majority of the
Partnership's positions will be exchange-traded futures contracts, which will be
valued daily at settlement prices published by the exchanges. If applicable, the
29
Partnership's spot and forward foreign currency contracts will also be valued at
published daily settlement prices or at dealers' quotes. The General Partner
expects that under normal circumstances substantially all of the Partnership's
assets will be valued by objective measures and without difficulty.
Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Introduction
The Partnership is a speculative commodity pool. The market sensitive
instruments held by it are acquired for speculative trading purposes, and all or
substantially all of the Partnership's assets are subject to the risk of trading
loss. Unlike an operating company, the risk of market sensitive instruments is
integral, not incidental, to the Partnership's main line of business.
Market movements result in frequent changes in the fair market value of the
Partnership's open positions and, consequently, in its earnings and cash flow.
The Partnership's market risk is influenced by a wide variety of factors,
including the level and volatility of interest rates, exchange rates, equity
price levels, the market value of financial instruments and contracts, the
diversification results among the Partnership's open positions and the liquidity
of the markets in which it trades.
The Partnership rapidly acquires and liquidates both long and short
positions in a wide range of different markets. Consequently, it is not possible
to predict how a particular future market scenario will affect performance, and
30
the Partnership's past performance is not necessarily indicative of its future
results.
Value at Risk is a measure of the maximum amount which the Partnership
could reasonably be expected to lose in a given market sector. However, the
inherent uncertainty of the Partnership's speculative trading and the recurrence
in the markets traded by the Partnership of market movements far exceeding
expectations could result in actual trading or non-trading losses far beyond the
indicated Value at Risk or the Partnership's experience to date (i.e., "risk of
ruin"). In light of the foregoing as well as the risks and uncertainties
intrinsic to all future projections, the inclusion of the quantification in this
section should not be considered to constitute any assurance or representation
that the Partnership's losses in any market sector will be limited to Value at
Risk or by the Partnership's attempts to manage its market risk.
Quantifying the Partnership's Trading Value at Risk
The following quantitative disclosures regarding the Partnership's market
risk exposures contain "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of the
safe harbor from civil liability provided for such statements by the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (set forth in Section 27A of the
Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934).
All quantitative disclosures in this section are deemed to be forward-looking
statements for purposes of the safe harbor except for statements of historical
fact (such as the terms of particular contracts and the number of market risk
31
sensitive instruments held during or at the end of the reporting period).
The Partnership's risk exposure in the various market sectors traded by the
Advisor is quantified below in terms of Value at Risk. Due to the Partnership's
mark-to-market accounting, any loss in the fair value of the Partnership's open
positions is directly reflected in the Partnership's earnings (realized and
unrealized).
Exchange maintenance margin requirements have been used by the Partnership
as the measure of its Value at Risk. Maintenance margin requirements are set by
exchanges to equal or exceed the maximum losses reasonably expected to be
incurred in the fair value of any given contract in 95%-99% of any one-day
intervals. The maintenance margin levels are established by dealers and
exchanges using historical price studies as well as an assessment of current
market volatility (including the implied volatility of the options on a given
futures contract) and economic fundamentals to provide a probabilistic estimate
of the maximum expected near-term one-day price fluctuation. Maintenance margin
has been used rather than the more generally available initial margin, because
initial margin includes a credit risk component which is not relevant to Value
at Risk.
In the case of market sensitive instruments which are not exchange traded
(almost exclusively currencies in the case of the Partnership), the margin
requirements for the equivalent futures positions have been used as Value at
Risk. In those rare cases in which a futures-equivalent margin is not available,
dealers' margins have been used.
32
The fair value of the Partnership's futures and forward positions does not
have any optionality component. However, certain of the Advisors trade commodity
options. The Value at Risk associated with options is reflected in the following
table as the margin requirement attributable to the instrument underlying each
option. Where this instrument is a futures contract, the futures margin, and
where this instrument is a physical commodity, the futures-equivalent
maintenance margin has been used. This calculation is conservative in that it
assumes that the fair value of an option will decline by the same amount as the
fair value of the underlying instrument, whereas, in fact, the fair values of
the options traded by the Partnership in almost all cases fluctuate to a lesser
extent than those of the underlying instruments.
In quantifying the Partnership's Value at Risk, 100% positive correlation
in the different positions held in each market risk category has been assumed.
Consequently, the margin requirements applicable to the open contracts have
simply been added to determine each trading category's aggregate Value at Risk.
The diversification effects resulting from the fact that the Partnership's
positions are rarely, if ever, 100% positively correlated have not been
reflected.
33
The Partnership's Trading Value at Risk in Different Market Sectors
The following table indicates the trading Value at Risk associated with the
Partnership's open positions by market category as of December 31, 2002 and the
highest and lowest value at any point during the year. All open position trading
risk exposures of the Partnership have been included in calculating the figures
set forth below. As of December 31, 2002, the Partnership's total capitalization
was $49,391,625.

35
Material Limitations on Value at Risk as an Assessment of Market Risk
- ---------------------------------------------------------------- ----
The face value of the market sector instruments held by the Partnership is
typically many times the applicable maintenance margin requirement (margin
requirements generally range between 2% and 15% of contract face value) as well
as many times the capitalization of the Partnership. The magnitude of the
Partnership's open positions creates a "risk of ruin" not typically found in
most other investment vehicles. Because of the size of its positions, certain
market conditions -- unusual, but historically recurring from time to time --
could cause the Partnership to incur severe losses over a short period of time.
The foregoing Value at Risk table -- as well as the past performance of the
Partnership -- give no indication of this "risk of ruin."
Non-Trading Risk
The Partnership has non-trading market risk on its foreign cash balances
not needed for margin. However, these balances (as well as any market risk they
represent) are immaterial.
Materiality as used in this section, "Qualitative and Quantitative
Disclosures About Market Risk," is based on an assessment of reasonably possible
market movements and the potential losses caused by such movements, taking into
account the leverage, optionality and multiplier features of the Partnership's
market sensitive instruments.
36
Qualitative Disclosures Regarding Primary Trading Risk Exposures
The following qualitative disclosures regarding the Partnership's market
risk exposures - except for (i) those disclosures that are statements of
historical fact and (ii) the descriptions of how the Partnership manages its
primary market risk exposures - constitute forward-looking statements within the
meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Securities
Exchange Act. The Partnership's primary market risk exposures as well as the
strategies used and to be used by the General Partner and the Advisors for
managing such exposures are subject to numerous uncertainties, contingencies and
risks, any one of which could cause the actual results of the Partnership's risk
controls to differ materially from the objectives of such strategies. Government
interventions, defaults and expropriations, illiquid markets, the emergence of
dominant fundamental factors, political upheavals, changes in historical price
relationships, an influx of new market participants, increased regulation and
many other factors could result in material losses as well as in material
changes to the risk exposures and the management strategies of the Partnership.
There can be no assurance that the Partnership's current market exposure and/or
risk management strategies will not change materially or that any such
strategies will be effective in either the short- or long- term. Investors must
be prepared to lose all or substantially all of their investment in the
Partnership.
The following were the primary trading risk exposures of the Partnership as
of December 31, 2002, by market sector:
37
Interest Rates. Interest rate movements directly affect the price of the
futures positions held by the Partnership and indirectly the value of its stock
index and currency positions. Interest rate movements in one country as well as
relative interest rate movements between countries materially impact the
Partnership's profitability. The Partnership's primary interest rate exposure is
to interest rate fluctuations in the United States and the other G-7 countries.
However, the Partnership also takes futures positions on the government debt of
smaller nations -- e.g., Australia. The General Partner anticipates that G-7
interest rates will remain the primary market exposure of the Partnership for
the foreseeable future.
Currencies. The Partnership's currency exposure is to exchange rate
fluctuations, primarily fluctuations which disrupt the historical pricing
relationships between different currencies and currency pairs. These
fluctuations are influenced by interest rate changes as well as political and
general economic conditions. The Partnership's major exposures have typically
been in the dollar/yen, dollar/Swiss franc and dollar/pound positions. The
General Partner does not anticipate that the risk profile of the Partnership's
currency sector will change significantly in the future. The currency trading
Value at Risk figure includes foreign margin amounts converted into U.S. dollars
with an incremental adjustment to reflect the exchange rate risk inherent to the
38
dollar-based Partnership in expressing Value at Risk in a functional currency
other than dollars.
Stock Indices. The Partnership's primary equity exposure is to equity price
risk in the G-7 countries. The stock index futures traded by the Partnership are
limited to futures on broadly based indices. As of December 31, 2002, the
Partnership's primary exposures were in the LIFFE (England), Nikkei (Japan),
EUREX (German) and S&P stock indices. The Partnership is primarily exposed to
the risk of adverse price trends or static markets in the major U.S., European
and Japanese indices. (Static markets would not cause major market changes but
would make it difficult for the Partnership to avoid being "whipsawed" into
numerous small losses.)
Metals. The Partnership's primary metal market exposure is to fluctuations
in the price of gold and silver. Although the Advisor will from time to time
trade base metals such as aluminum, copper and tin, the principal market
exposures of the Partnership have consistently been in the precious metals, gold
and silver. The General Partner anticipates that gold and silver will remain the
primary metals market exposure for the Partnership.
Qualitative Disclosures Regarding Non-Trading Risk Exposure
The following were the only non-trading risk exposures of the Partnership
as of December 31, 2002.
Foreign Currency Balances. The Partnership's primary foreign currency
balances are in Japanese yen, Euro dollar, British pounds and Australian dollar.
The Advisor regularly converts foreign currency balances to dollars in an
attempt to control the Partnership's non-trading risk.
39
Qualitative Disclosures Regarding Means of Managing Risk Exposure
The General Partner monitors and controls the Partnership's risk exposure
on a daily basis through financial, credit and risk management monitoring
systems and accordingly believes that it has effective procedures for evaluating
and limiting the credit and market risks to which the Partnership is subject.
The General Partner monitors the Partnership's performance and the
concentration of its open positions, and consults with the Advisors concerning
the Partnership's overall risk profile. If the General Partner felt it necessary
to do so, the General Partner could require the Advisors to close out individual
positions as well as enter certain positions traded on behalf of the
Partnership. However, any such intervention would be a highly unusual event. The
General Partner primarily relies on the Advisors' own risk control policies
while maintaining a general supervisory overview of the Partnership's market
risk exposures.
Each Advisor applies its own risk management policies to its trading. The
Advisors often follow diversification guidelines, margin limits and stop loss
points to exit a position. The Advisors' research of risk management often
suggests ongoing modifications to its trading programs.
As part of the General Partner's risk management, the General Partner
periodically meets with the Advisors to discuss their risk management and to
look for any material changes to the Advisors' portfolio balance and trading
40
techniques. The Advisors are required to notify the General Partner of any
material changes to its programs.

Notes to Financial Statements
1. Partnership Organization:
Salomon Smith Barney Global Diversified Futures Fund L.P. (the
"Partnership") is a limited partnership organized under the laws of the
State of New York on June 15, 1998 to engage in speculative trading of a
diversified portfolio of commodity interests, including futures contracts,
options and forwards. The commodity interests that are traded by the
Partnership are volatile and involve a high degree of market risk.
Between November 25, 1998 (commencement of the offering period) and
February 1, 1999, 33,379 Units of Limited Partnership Interest ("Units")
were sold at $1,000 per Unit. The proceeds of the initial offering were
held in an escrow account until February 2, 1999, at which time they were
turned over to the Partnership for trading. The Partnership was authorized
to sell 100,000 Units during its offering period which ended November 25,
2000.
Smith Barney Futures Management LLC acts as the general partner (the
"General Partner") of the Partnership. The Partnership's commodity broker
is Salomon Smith Barney Inc. ("SSB"). SSB is an affiliate of the General
Partner. The General Partner is wholly owned by Salomon Smith Barney
Holdings Inc. ("SSBHI"), which is the sole owner of SSB. SSBHI is a wholly
owned subsidiary of Citigroup Inc.
The General Partner and each limited partner share in the profits and
losses of the Partnership in proportion to the amount of partnership
interest owned by each except that no limited partner shall be liable for
obligations of the Partnership in excess of their initial capital
contribution and profits, if any, net of distributions.
The Partnership will be liquidated upon the first to occur of the
following: December 31, 2018; the net asset value of a Unit decreases to
less than $400 as of a close of any business day; or under certain other
circumstances as defined in the Limited Partnership Agreement.
2. Accounting Policies:
a. All commodity interests (including derivative financial instruments and
derivative commodity instruments) are used for trading purposes. The
commodity interests are recorded on trade date and open contracts are
recorded in the statement of financial condition at fair value on the last
business day of the year, which represents market value for those commodity
interests for which market quotations are readily available. Investments in
commodity interests denominated in foreign currencies are translated into
U.S. dollars at the exchange rates prevailing on the last business day of
the year. Realized gains (losses) and changes in unrealized gains (losses)
on open positions are recognized in the period in which the contract is
closed or the changes occur and are included in net gains (losses) on
trading of commodity interests.
b. The Partnership may purchase and write (sell) options. An option is a
contract allowing, but not requiring, its holder to buy (call) or sell
(put) a specific or standard commodity or financial instrument at a
specified price during a specified time period. The option premium is the
total price paid or received for the option contract. When the Partnership
writes an option, the premium received is recorded as a liability in the
statement of financial condition and marked to market daily. When the
Partnership purchases an option, the premium paid is recorded as an asset
in the statement of financial condition and marked to market daily.
c. Income taxes have not been provided as each partner is individually
liable for the taxes, if any, on their share of the Partnership's income
and expenses.
d. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting
principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported
amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual
results could differ from these estimates.
e. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to
current year presentation.
3. Agreements:
a. Limited Partnership Agreement:
The General Partner administers the business and affairs of the Partnership
including selecting one or more advisors to make trading decisions for the
Partnership.
F-10
b. Management Agreement:
The General Partner, on behalf of the Partnership, has entered into
Management Agreements with Campbell & Company, Inc. ("Campbell"), Aspect
Capital Limited ("Aspect") and Eckhardt Trading Company ("Eckhardt")
(collectively, the "Advisors"), each of which are registered commodity
trading advisors. The Advisors are not affiliated with one another, are not
affiliated with the General Partner or SSB and are not responsible for the
organization or operation of the Partnership. The Partnership will pay each
Advisor a monthly management fee equal to 1/6 of 1% (2% a year) of
month-end Net Assets allocated to the Advisor, except for Aspect, which
will receive a monthly management fee equal to 1/12 of 1.25% (1.25% a year)
of month-end Net Assets allocated to the Advisor. Month-end Net Assets, for
the purpose of calculating management fees are Net Assets, as defined in
the Limited Partnership Agreement, prior to the reduction of redemptions
and incentive fees.
In addition, the Partnership is obligated to pay each Advisor an incentive
fee payable annually equal to 20% of the New Trading Profits, as defined in
the Management Agreements, earned by each Advisor for the Partnership.
c. Customer Agreement:
The Partnership has entered into a Customer Agreement which provides that
the Partnership will pay SSB a monthly brokerage fee equal to 9/20 of 1%
(5.4% per year) of month-end Net Assets, in lieu of brokerage commissions
on a per trade basis. Month-end Net Assets, for the purpose of calculating
commissions are Net Assets, as defined in the Limited Partnership
Agreement, prior to the reduction of all liabilities of the Partnership.
SSB will pay a portion of brokerage fees to its financial consultants who
have sold Units in this Partnership. Brokerage fees will be paid for the
life of the Partnership, although the rate at which such fees are paid may
be changed. The Partnership will pay for National Futures Association fees
as well as exchange, clearing, user, give-up and floor brokerage fees. All
of the Partnership's assets are deposited in the Partnership's account at
SSB. The Partnership's cash is deposited by SSB in segregated bank accounts
to the extent required by Commodity Futures Trading Commission regulations.
At December 31, 2002 and 2001, the amount of cash held for margin
requirements was $5,827,594 and $3,406,754, respectively. SSB will pay the
Partnership interest on 80% of the average daily equity maintained in cash
in its account during each month at a 30-day U.S. Treasury bill rate
determined weekly by SSB based on the average noncompetitive yield on
3-month U.S. Treasury bills maturing in 30 days from the date on which such
weekly rate is determined. The Customer Agreement between the Partnership
and SSB gives the Partnership the legal right to net unrealized gains and
losses. The Customer Agreement may be terminated upon notice by either
party.
4. Trading Activities:
The Partnership was formed for the purpose of trading contracts in a
variety of commodity interests, including derivative financial instruments
and derivative commodity interests. The results of the Partnership's
trading activities are shown in the statement of income and expenses.
All of the commodity interests owned by the Partnership are held for
trading purposes. The average fair value during the years ended December
31, 2002 and 2001, based on a monthly calculation, was $1,607,834 and
$2,303,242, respectively.
5. Distributions and Redemptions:
Distributions of profits, if any, will be made at the sole discretion of
the General Partner and at such times as the General Partner may decide.
Beginning with the first full month ending at least three months after the
commencement of trading, a limited partner may require the Partnership to
redeem his Units at their Redemption value per unit as of the last day of a
month on 10 days notice to the General Partner. For the purpose of a
redemption, any accrued liability for reimbursement of offering and
organization expenses for the Initial Offering Period will not reduce
Redemption value per Unit. There is no fee charged to limited partners in
connection with redemptions.
F-11
6. Offering Costs:
Offering costs of approximately $700,000 relating to the issuance and
marketing of the Partnership's Units offered were initially paid by SSB.
The Partnership has reimbursed SSB for all such costs incurred during the
initial offering and continuous offering period (together with interest at
the prime rate quoted by JPMorgan Chase & Co.).
For the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, $0 and $40,661,
respectively, of these costs have been reimbursed to SSB by the
Partnership. In addition, the Partnership has recorded interest expense of
$0 and $161, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001
which is included in other expenses.
7. Financial Highlights:
Changes in the net asset value per Unit of Partnership interest for the
years ended December 31, 2002, 2001 and 2000 were as follows:
2002 2001 2000

F-12
8. Financial Instrument Risks:
In the normal course of its business, the Partnership is party to financial
instruments with off-balance sheet risk, including derivative financial
instruments and derivative commodity instruments. These financial
instruments may include forwards, futures and options, whose values are
based upon an underlying asset, index, or reference rate, and generally
represent future commitments to exchange currencies or cash flows, or to
purchase or sell other financial instruments at specific terms at specified
future dates, or, in the case of derivative commodity instruments, to have
a reasonable possibility to be settled in cash, through physical delivery
or with another financial instrument. These instruments may be traded on an
exchange or over-the-counter ("OTC"). Exchange traded instruments are
standardized and include futures and certain option contracts. OTC
contracts are negotiated between contracting parties and include forwards
and certain options.
Each of these instruments is subject to various risks similar to those
related to the underlying financial instruments including market and credit
risk. In general, the risks associated with OTC contracts are greater than
those associated with exchange traded instruments because of the greater
risk of default by the counterparty to an OTC contract.
Market risk is the potential for changes in the value of the financial
instruments traded by the Partnership due to market changes, including
interest and foreign exchange rate movements and fluctuations in commodity
or security prices. Market risk is directly impacted by the volatility and
liquidity in the markets in which the related underlying assets are traded.
Credit risk is the possibility that a loss may occur due to the failure of
a counterparty to perform according to the terms of a contract. Credit risk
with respect to exchange traded instruments is reduced to the extent that
an exchange or clearing organization acts as a counterparty to the
transactions. The Partnership's risk of loss in the event of counterparty
default is typically limited to the amounts recognized in the statement of
financial condition and not represented by the contract or notional amounts
of the instruments. The Partnership has credit risk and concentration risk
because the sole counterparty or broker with respect to the Partnership's
assets is SSB.
The General Partner monitors and controls the Partnership's risk exposure
on a daily basis through financial, credit and risk management monitoring
systems, and accordingly believes that it has effective procedures for
evaluating and limiting the credit and market risks to which the
Partnership is subject. These monitoring systems allow the General Partner
to statistically analyze actual trading results with risk adjusted
performance indicators and correlation statistics. In addition, on-line
monitoring systems provide account analysis of futures, forwards and
options positions by sector, margin requirements, gain and loss
transactions and collateral positions.
The majority of these instruments mature within one year of December 31,
2002. However, due to the nature of the Partnership's business, these
instruments may not be held to maturity.

Item 9. Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and
Financial Disclosure.
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP was previously the principal accountant for the
Partnership. On July 9, 2002, that firm was dismissed as principal accountant
and KPMG LLP was engaged as principal accountant. The decision to change
accountants was approved by the general partner of the Partnership.
In connection with the audits of the two fiscal years ended December 31,
2001, and through July 9, 2002, there were no disagreements with
PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP on any matter of accounting principles or practices,
financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedures, which
disagreements if not resolved to their satisfaction would have caused them to
make reference thereto in their reports on the financial statements for such
years.
The audit reports of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP on the financial statements
of the Partnership as of and for the years ended December 31, 2001 and 2000 did
not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor were they
qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principle.
