MANAGEMENT'S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
Ceres Managed Futures LLC ("Ceres"), formerly Demeter Management LLC, the
general partner of Morgan Stanley Smith Barney Charter Campbell L.P., Morgan
Stanley Smith Barney Charter Aspect L.P., and Morgan Stanley Smith Barney
Charter WNT L.P. (collectively, the "Partnerships"), is responsible for the
management of the Partnerships.
Management of Ceres ("Management") is responsible for establishing and
maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. The internal
control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance
regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of
financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles.
The Partnerships' internal control over financial reporting includes those
policies and procedures that:
. Pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately
and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the
Partnerships;
. Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to
permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally
accepted accounting principles, and that the Partnerships' transactions are
being made only in accordance with authorizations of Management and
directors of Ceres; and
. Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection and
correction of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the
Partnerships' assets that could have a material effect on the financial
statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial
reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any
evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that
controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the
degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.
Management assessed the effectiveness of each Partnership's internal control
over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010. In making this assessment,
Management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring
Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control--Integrated
Framework. Based on our assessment and those criteria, Management believes that
each Partnership maintained effective internal control over financial reporting
as of December 31, 2010.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM
To the Limited Partners and the General Partner of Morgan Stanley Smith Barney
Charter Campbell L.P., Morgan Stanley Smith Barney Charter Aspect L.P., and
Morgan Stanley Smith Barney Charter WNT L.P.:
We have audited the accompanying statements of financial condition of Morgan
Stanley Smith Barney Charter Campbell L.P., Morgan Stanley Smith Barney Charter
Aspect L.P., and Morgan Stanley Smith Barney Charter WNT L.P. (collectively,
the "Partnerships"), including the condensed schedules of investments, as of
December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related statements of operations and
changes in partners' capital for each of the three years in the period ended
December 31, 2010. These financial statements are the responsibility of the
Partnerships' management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public
Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require
that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether
the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Partnerships
are not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of their
internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of
internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit
procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose
of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Partnerships' internal
control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An
audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts
and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of Morgan Stanley Smith Barney Charter
Campbell L.P., Morgan Stanley Smith Barney Charter Aspect L.P., and Morgan
Stanley Smith Barney Charter WNT L.P. as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the
results of their operations and changes in their partners' capital for each of
the three years in the period ended December 31, 2010, in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

1. ORGANIZATION
Morgan Stanley Smith Barney Charter Campbell L.P. ("Charter Campbell"), Morgan
Stanley Smith Barney Charter Aspect L.P. ("Charter Aspect"), and Morgan Stanley
Smith Barney Charter WNT L.P. ("Charter WNT") (individually, a "Partnership",
or collectively, the "Partnerships") are limited partnerships organized to
engage primarily in the speculative trading of futures contracts, options on
futures and forward contracts, and forward contracts on physical commodities
and other commodity interests, including, but not limited to, foreign
currencies, financial instruments, metals, energy, and agricultural products
(collectively, "Futures Interests") (refer to Note 5. Financial Instruments).
In 2009, Morgan Stanley and Citigroup Inc. combined certain assets of the
Global Wealth Management Group of Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated, including
Demeter Management LLC ("Demeter") and the Smith Barney division of Citigroup
Global Markets Inc., into a new joint venture, Morgan Stanley Smith Barney
Holdings LLC ("MSSBH"). As part of that transaction, Ceres Managed Futures LLC
("Ceres") and Demeter were contributed to MSSBH, and each became a wholly-owned
subsidiary of MSSBH.
Effective December 1, 2010, MSSBH, together with the unanimous support of the
Boards of Directors of Demeter and Ceres, combined the assets and operations of
Demeter and Ceres into a single commodity pool operator, Ceres. Ceres will
continue to be wholly-owned by MSSBH and replaced Demeter as the general
partner for the Partnerships.
The non-clearing commodity broker is Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC ("MSSB")
as of May 1, 2010, the principal subsidiary of MSSBH. The clearing commodity
brokers are Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated ("MS&Co.") and Morgan Stanley &
Co. International plc ("MSIP"). MS&Co. also acts as the counterparty on all
trading of foreign currency forward contracts. MSIP serves as the commodity
broker for trades on the London Metal Exchange ("LME"). For Charter Campbell,
Morgan Stanley Capital Group Inc. ("MSCG") acts as the counterparty on all
trading of options on foreign currency forward contracts. MS&Co., MSIP, and
MSCG are wholly-owned subsidiaries of Morgan Stanley.
Effective September 29, 2009, Demeter changed the name of Morgan Stanley
Charter Campbell L.P., Morgan Stanley Charter Aspect L.P., and Morgan Stanley
Charter WCM L.P., respectively, to Morgan Stanley Smith Barney Charter Campbell
L.P., Morgan Stanley Smith Barney Charter Aspect L.P., and Morgan Stanley Smith
Barney Charter WNT L.P., respectively. The name change did not have any impact
on the operation of each Partnership or its limited partners.
Effective December 1, 2008, Charter Aspect and Charter WNT no longer offer
units of limited partnership interest ("Unit(s)") for purchase or exchange.
Ceres is required to maintain a 1% minimum interest in the equity of each
Partnership and income (losses) are shared by Ceres and the limited partners
based on their proportional ownership interests.

2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
USE OF ESTIMATES. The financial statements are prepared in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("US
GAAP"), which require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect
the reported amounts in the financial statements and related disclosures.
Management believes that the estimates utilized in the preparation of the
financial statements are prudent and reasonable. Actual results could differ
from those estimates.
VALUATION. Futures Interests are open commitments until settlement date, at
which time they are realized. They are valued at fair value, generally on a
daily basis, and the unrealized gains and losses on open contracts (the
difference between contract trade price and market price) are reported in the
Statements of Financial Condition as a net unrealized gain or loss on open
contracts. The resulting net change in unrealized gains and losses is reflected
in the change in unrealized trading profit (loss) on open contracts from one
period to the next on the Statements of Operations. The fair value of
exchange-traded futures, options and forwards contracts is determined by the
various futures exchanges, and reflects the settlement price for each contract
as of the close of business on the last business day of the reporting
period. The fair value of foreign currency forward contracts is extrapolated on
a forward basis from the spot prices quoted as of approximately 3:00 P.M.
(E.T.) of the last business day of the reporting period from various exchanges.
The fair value of non-exchange-traded foreign currency option contracts is
calculated by applying an industry standard model application for options
valuation of foreign currency options, using as input, the spot prices,
interest rates, and option implied volatilities quoted as of approximately 3:00
P.M. (E.T.) on the last business day of the reporting period.
The Partnerships may buy or write put and call options through listed
exchanges and the over-the-counter market. The buyer of an option has the right
to purchase (in the case of a call option) or sell (in the case of a put
option) a specified quantity of a specific Futures Interest on the underlying
asset at a specified price prior to or on a specified expiration date. The
writer of an option is exposed to the risk of loss if the fair value of a
Futures Interest on the underlying asset declines (in the case of a put option)
or increases (in the case of a call option). The writer of an option can never
profit by more than the premium paid by the buyer but can potentially lose an
unlimited amount.
Premiums received/premiums paid from writing/purchasing options are recorded
as liabilities/assets on the Statements of Financial Condition and are
subsequently adjusted to fair values. The difference between the fair value of
an option and the premiums received/premiums paid is treated as an unrealized
gain or loss.
MORGAN STANLEY SMITH BARNEY CHARTER SERIES
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(continued)
REVENUE RECOGNITION. Monthly, MSSB credits each Partnership with interest
income received from MS&Co. and MSIP. Such amount is based on 100% of its
average daily funds held at MS&Co. and MSIP to meet margin requirements at a
rate approximately equivalent to what the commodity brokers pay or charge other
similar customers on margin deposits. In addition, MSSB credits at each month
end each Partnership with interest income on 100% of such Partnership's assets
not deposited as margin at a rate equal to the monthly average of the 4-week
U.S. Treasury bill discount rate during the month. MSSB retains any interest
earned in excess of the interest paid by MSSB to the Partnerships. For purposes
of such interest payments, net assets do not include monies owed to the
Partnerships on forward contracts and other Futures Interests.
FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS. The fair value of the Partnerships'
assets and liabilities that qualify as financial instruments under the
Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification
("ASC" or the "Codification") approximates the carrying amount presented in the
Statements of Financial Condition.
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION. The Partnerships' functional currency is the
U.S. dollar; however, the Partnerships may transact business in currencies
other than the U.S. dollar. Assets and liabilities denominated in currencies
other than the U.S. dollar are translated into U.S. dollars at the rate in
effect at the date of the Statements of Financial Condition. Income and expense
items denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are translated into
U.S. dollars at the rate in effect during the period. Gains and losses
resulting from the translation to U.S. dollars are reported in income currently.
NET INCOME (LOSS) PER UNIT. Net income (loss) per Unit is computed in
accordance with the specialized accounting for Investment Companies as
illustrated in the Financial Highlights Footnote (See Note 8. Financial
Highlights).
TRADING EQUITY. The Partnerships' asset "Trading Equity," reflected on the
Statements of Financial Condition, consists of (A) cash on deposit with MSSB,
MS&Co., and MSIP to be used as margin for trading and (B) net unrealized gains
or losses on futures and forward contracts, which are valued at fair value and
calculated as the difference between original contract value and fair value;
and for Partnerships which trade in options; and, if any, (C) options purchased
at fair value. Options written at fair value are recorded in "Liabilities".
The Partnerships, in their normal course of business, enter into various
contracts with MSSB, MS&Co., and MSIP acting as their commodity brokers.
Pursuant to brokerage agreements with MSSB, MS&Co., and MSIP, to the extent
that such trading results in unrealized gains or losses, these amounts are
offset and reported on a net basis on the Partnerships' Statements of Financial
Condition.
MORGAN STANLEY SMITH BARNEY CHARTER SERIES
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(continued)
The Partnerships have offset the fair value amounts recognized for forward
contracts executed with the same counterparty as allowable under the terms of
their master netting agreement with MS&Co., as the counterparty on such
contracts. The Partnerships have consistently applied their right to offset.
RESTRICTED AND UNRESTRICTED CASH. As reflected on the Partnerships' Statements
of Financial Condition, restricted cash equals the cash portion of assets on
deposit to meet margin requirements plus the cash required to offset unrealized
losses on foreign currency forwards and options and offset losses on offset
London Metal Exchange positions. All of these amounts are maintained
separately. Cash that is not classified as restricted cash is therefore
classified as unrestricted cash.
BROKERAGE AND RELATED TRANSACTION FEES AND COSTS. Each Partnership currently
pays MS&Co. a flat-rate monthly brokerage fee of 1/12 of 6% of the
Partnership's net assets as of the first day of each month (a 6% annual rate).
Such fees currently cover all brokerage fees, transaction fees and costs, and
ordinary administrative and offering expenses.
OPERATING EXPENSES. The Partnerships incur monthly management fees and may
incur an incentive fee. All common administrative and continuing offering
expenses, including legal, auditing, accounting, filing fees, and other related
expenses, are borne by MS&Co. through the brokerage fees paid by the
Partnerships.
CONTINUING OFFERING. Units of each Partnership were offered at a price equal
to 100% of the Net Asset Value per Unit as of the close of business on the last
day of each month. No selling commissions or charges related to the continuing
offering of Units were paid by the limited partners or the Partnerships. MS&Co.
paid all such costs.
Charter Campbell, Charter Aspect, and Charter WNT no longer offer Units for
purchase or exchange.
REDEMPTIONS. Limited partners may redeem some or all of their Units at 100% of
the Net Asset Value per Unit as of the end of the last day of any month that is
at least six months after the closing at which a person first becomes a limited
partner. The request for redemption must be delivered to a limited partner's
local Morgan Stanley Smith Barney Branch Office in time for it to be forwarded
and received by Ceres no later than 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the last
day of the month in which the redemption is to be effective. Redemptions must
be made in whole Units, with a minimum of 100 Units required for each
redemption, unless a limited partner is redeeming his entire interest in a
particular Partnership.
MORGAN STANLEY SMITH BARNEY CHARTER SERIES
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(continued)
Units redeemed on or prior to the last day of the twelfth month from the date
of purchase will be subject to a redemption charge equal to 2% of the Net Asset
Value of a Unit on the Redemption Date. Units redeemed after the last day of
the twelfth month and on or prior to the last day of the twenty-fourth month
from the date of purchase will be subject to a redemption charge equal to 1% of
the Net Asset Value of a Unit on the Redemption Date. Units redeemed after the
last day of the twenty-fourth month from the date of purchase will not be
subject to a redemption charge. The foregoing redemption charges are paid to
MS&Co.
The aggregate amounts of redemption charges paid to MS&Co. for the years
ended December 31, 2010, 2009, and 2008 were as follows:
2010 2009 2008

Charter Aspect 14,645 142,839 203,595
Charter WNT 19,270 149,519 104,294
EXCHANGES. On the last day of the first month which occurred more than six
months after a person first became a limited partner in each Partnership except
Charter Campbell, and at the end of each month thereafter, limited partners
could exchange their Units among Charter Aspect, and Charter WNT (subject to
certain restrictions outlined in the Limited Partnership Agreements) without
paying additional charges.
Charter Campbell, Charter Aspect, and Charter WNT no longer offer Units for
purchase or exchange.
DISTRIBUTIONS. Distributions, other than redemptions of Units, are made on a
pro-rata basis at the sole discretion of Ceres. No distributions have been made
to date. Ceres does not intend to make any distributions of the Partnerships'
profits.
INCOME TAXES. No provision for income taxes has been made in the accompanying
financial statements, as partners are individually responsible for reporting
income or loss based upon their respective share of each Partnership's revenues
and expenses for income tax purposes. The Partnerships file U.S. federal and
state tax returns.
The guidance issued by the FASB on income taxes clarifies the accounting for
uncertainty in income taxes recognized in each Partnership's financial
statements, and prescribes a recognition threshold and measurement attribute
for financial statement recognition and measurement of a tax position taken or
expected to be taken. The Partnerships have concluded that there were no
significant uncertain tax positions that would require recognition in the
financial statements as of December 31, 2010 and 2009. If applicable, the
Partnerships recognize interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in
interest expense and penalties in other expenses in the Statements of
Operations. Generally, the 2007 through 2010 tax years remain subject to
examination by U.S. federal and most state tax authorities. No income tax
returns are currently under examination.
MORGAN STANLEY SMITH BARNEY CHARTER SERIES

DISSOLUTION OF THE PARTNERSHIPS. Charter Aspect will terminate on December 31,
2025 and Charter Campbell and Charter WNT will terminate on December 31, 2035,
or at an earlier date if certain conditions occur as defined in each
Partnership's Limited Partnership Agreement.
LITIGATION SETTLEMENT. On July 28, 2010, Charter Campbell, Charter Aspect and
Charter WNT received a settlement award payment in the amounts of $6,177,
$40,052 and $40,150, respectively, from the Natural Gas Litigation Settlement
Administrator. This settlement represents each Partnership's portion of the
2006 Net Settlement Fund and the 2007 Net Settlement Fund. The proceeds from
settlement were accounted for in the period they were received for the benefit
of the partners in each Partnership.
STATEMENT OF CASH FLOWS. The Partnership is not required to provide a
Statement of Cash Flows.
OTHER PRONOUNCEMENTS
Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements
In January 2010, the FASB issued guidance, which, among other things, amends
fair value measurements and disclosures to require entities to separately
present purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements in their reconciliation of
Level 3 fair value measurements (i.e., to present such items on a gross basis
rather than on a net basis), and which clarifies existing disclosure
requirements regarding the level of disaggregation and the inputs and valuation
techniques used to measure fair value for measurements that fall within either
Level 2 or Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. This guidance is effective for
interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2009, except for the
disclosures about purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements in the roll
forward of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements which are effective for
fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010, and for interim periods within
those fiscal years. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material
impact on the Partnership's financial statements.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Each Partnership's cash is on deposit with MSSB, MS&Co., and MSIP in futures
interests trading accounts to meet margin requirements as needed. MSSB pays
interest on these funds as described in Note 2. Each Partnership pays brokerage
fees to MS&Co. as described in Note 2. For Charter Campbell, MSCG acts as the
counterparty on all trading of options on foreign currency forward contracts.
MORGAN STANLEY SMITH BARNEY CHARTER SERIES

4. TRADING ADVISORS
Ceres, on behalf of each Partnership, retains certain commodity trading
advisors to make all trading decisions for the Partnerships. The trading
advisors for each Partnership at December 31, 2010, were as follows:
Morgan Stanley Smith Barney Charter Campbell L.P.
Campbell & Company, Inc.
Morgan Stanley Smith Barney Charter Aspect L.P.
Aspect Capital Limited
Morgan Stanley Smith Barney Charter WNT L.P.
Winton Capital Management Limited
Compensation to the trading advisors by the Partnerships consists of a
management fee and an incentive fee as follows:
MANAGEMENT FEE. Charter Aspect, and Charter WNT each pays its trading advisor
a flat-rate monthly fee equal to 1/6 of 1% (a 2% annual rate) of the
Partnership's net assets under management by each trading advisor as of the
first day of each month.
Charter Campbell pays its trading advisor a flat-rate monthly fee equal to
1/12 of 2.65% (a 2.65% annual rate) of the Partnership's net assets under
management as of the first day of each month.
Effective January 1, 2011, the monthly management fee rate will be reduced to
1/6 of 1% (a 2% annual rate).
INCENTIVE FEE. Each Partnership's incentive fee is equal to 20% of trading
profits paid on a monthly basis.
Trading profits represent the amount by which profits from futures, forwards,
and options trading exceed losses after brokerage and management fees are
deducted. When a trading advisor experiences losses with respect to net assets
as of the end of a calendar month, the trading advisor must recover such losses
before that trading advisor is eligible for an incentive fee in the future.
Cumulative trading losses are adjusted on a pro-rated basis for the amount of
each month's net contributions for each trading advisor.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
The Partnerships trade Futures Interests. Futures and forwards represent
contracts for delayed delivery of an instrument at a specified date and price.
Risk arises from changes in the value of these contracts and the potential
inability of counterparties to perform under the terms of the contracts. There
are numerous factors which may significantly influence the fair value of these
contracts, including interest rate volatility.
MORGAN STANLEY SMITH BARNEY CHARTER SERIES
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(continued)
The fair value of exchange-traded contracts is based on the settlement price
quoted by the exchange on the day with respect to which fair value is being
determined. If an exchange-traded contract could not have been liquidated on
such day due to the operation of daily limits or other rules of the exchange,
the settlement price will be equal to the settlement price on the first
subsequent day on which the contract could be liquidated. The fair value of
off-exchange-traded contracts is based on the fair value quoted by the
counterparty.
The Partnerships' contracts are accounted for on a trade-date basis and
marked to market on a daily basis. A derivative is defined as a financial
instrument or other contract that has all three of the following
characteristics:
(1)a) One or more "underlyings" and b) One or more "notional amounts" or
payment provisions or both;
(2)Requires no initial net investment or smaller initial net investment than
would be required for other types of contracts that would be expected to
have a similar response relative to changes in market factors; and
(3)Terms that require or permit net settlement.
Generally, derivatives include futures, forward, swap or options contracts,
and other financial instruments with similar characteristics, such as caps,
floors, and collars.
The net unrealized gains (losses) on open contracts at December 31, 2010
reported as a component of "Trading Equity" on the Statements of Financial
Condition, and their longest contract maturities were as follows:

The Partnerships have credit risk associated with counterparty
nonperformance. As of the date of the financial statements, the credit risk
associated with the instruments in which the Partnerships trade is limited to
the unrealized gain amounts reflected in the Partnerships' Statements of
Financial Condition.
The Partnerships also have credit risk because MS&Co., MSIP, and/or MSCG act
as the futures commission merchants or the counterparties, with respect to most
of the Partnerships' assets. Exchange-traded futures, exchange-traded forward,
and exchange-traded futures-styled options contracts are marked to market on a
daily basis, with variations in value settled on a daily basis. MS&Co. and
MSIP, each acting as a commodity broker for each Partnership's exchange-traded
futures, exchange-traded forward, and exchange-traded futures-styled options
contracts, are required, pursuant to regulations of the Commodity Futures
Trading Commission, to segregate from their own assets, and for the sole
benefit of their commodity customers, all funds held by them with respect to
exchange-traded futures, exchange-traded forward, and exchange-traded
futures-styled options contracts, including an amount equal to the net
unrealized gains (losses) on all open exchange-traded futures, exchange-traded
forward, and exchange-traded futures-styled options contracts, which funds, in
the aggregate, totaled $82,911,300 and $100,223,698 for Charter Campbell,
$107,801,071 and $115,245,689 for Charter Aspect, $83,367,161 and $93,286,036
for Charter WNT at December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. With respect to
each Partnership's off-exchange-traded forward currency contracts and forward
currency options contracts, there are no daily settlements of variation in
value, nor is there any requirement that an amount equal to the net unrealized
gains (losses) on such contracts be segregated. However, each Partnership is
required to meet margin requirements equal to the net unrealized loss on open
forward currency contracts in the Partnership accounts with the counterparty,
which is accomplished by daily maintenance of the cash balance in a custody
account held at MSSB for the benefit of MS&Co. With respect to those
off-exchange-traded forward currency contracts, the Partnerships are at risk to
the ability of MS&Co., the sole counterparty on all such contracts, to perform.
Each Partnership has a netting agreement with the counterparties. These
agreements, which seek to reduce both the Partnerships' and the counterparties'
exposure on off-exchange-traded forward currency contracts, including options
on such contracts, should materially decrease the Partnerships' credit risk in
the event of MS&Co.'s or MSCG's bankruptcy or insolvency.
MORGAN STANLEY SMITH BARNEY CHARTER SERIES
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(continued)
The futures, forwards and options traded by the Partnerships involve varying
degrees of related market risk. Market risk is often dependent upon changes in
the level or volatility of interest rates, exchange rates, and prices of
financial instruments and commodities, factors that result in frequent changes
in the fair value of the Partnerships' open positions, and consequently in its
earnings, whether realized or unrealized, and cash flow. Gains and losses on
open positions of exchange-traded futures, exchange-traded forward, and
exchange-traded futures-styled options contracts are settled daily through
variation margin. Gains and losses on off-exchange-traded forward currency
contracts are settled upon termination of the contract. Gains and losses on
off-exchange-traded forward currency options contracts are settled on an
agreed-upon settlement date. However, the Partnerships are required to meet
margin requirements equal to the net unrealized loss on open forward currency
contracts in the Partnerships' accounts with the counterparty, which is
accomplished by daily maintenance of the cash balance in a custody account held
at MSSB for the benefit of MS&Co.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
6. DERIVATIVES AND HEDGING
The Partnerships' objective is to profit from speculative trading in Futures
Interests. Therefore, the trading advisor for each Partnership will take
speculative positions in Futures Interests where it feels the best profit
opportunities exist for its trading strategy. As such, the average number of
contracts outstanding in absolute quantity (the total of the open long and open
short positions) has been presented as a part of the volume disclosure, as
position direction is not an indicative factor in such volume disclosures. With
regard to foreign currency forward trades, each notional quantity amount has
been converted to an equivalent contract based upon an industry convention.
The following tables summarize the valuation of each Partnership's
investments as required by the disclosures about Derivatives and Hedging under
the FASB ASC as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively.

7. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS AND DISCLOSURES
Financial instruments are carried at fair value, which is the price that would
be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly
transaction between market participants. Assets and liabilities carried at fair
value are classified and disclosed in the following three levels: Level
1--unadjusted quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets and
liabilities; Level 2--inputs other than unadjusted quoted market prices that
are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly
(including unadjusted quoted market prices for similar investments, interest
rates, credit risk); and Level 3--unobservable inputs for the asset or
liability (including the Partnerships' own assumptions used in determining the
fair value of investments).
In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into
different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, an investment's
level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input
that is significant to the fair value measurement. The Partnerships' assessment
of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its
entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the investment.
The Partnerships' assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a
recurring basis are summarized in the following tables by the type of inputs
applicable to the fair value measurements.
