PART I

Item 1. Business.

     (a) General development of business. Westport JWH Futures Fund L.P., (the “Partnership”) is a limited partnership organized on March 21, 1997 under the partnership laws of the State of New York to engage, directly or indirectly, in the speculative trading of a diversified portfolio of commodity interests including futures and forward contracts. The sectors traded include currencies, energy, grains, U.S. and non-U.S. interest rates, indices, livestock, metals and softs. The Partnership commenced trading operations on August 1, 1997. The commodity interests that are traded by the Partnership directly, and through its investment in JWH Master Fund LLC (“JWH Master”) JWH Master 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 May 30, 1997 (commencement of the offering period). Beginning May 30, 1997, 120,000 redeemable units of limited partnership interest (“Redeemable Units”) were publicly offered at $1,000 per Redeemable Unit for a period of ninety days, subject to increase for up to an additional sixty days at the sole discretion of the General Partner. Between May 30, 1997 and July 31, 1997, 40,035 Redeemable Units were sold at $1,000 Redeemable per unit. Proceeds of the offering were held in an escrow account and were transferred, along with the General Partner’s contribution of $404,000 to the Partnership’s trading account on August 1, 1997 when the Partnership commenced trading. The public offering of Redeemable Units terminated on February 1, 1998. The Partnership privately continues to offer up to 200,000 Redeemable Units to qualified investors. There is no maximum number of units that may be sold by the Partnership. Subscriptions of additional Redeemable Units and General Partner contributions and redemptions of Redeemable Units for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008 are reported in the Statements of Changes in Partners’ Capital on page 32 under “Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.”

     Ceres Managed Futures LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, acts as the general partner (the “General Partner”) and commodity pool operator of the Partnership. The General Partner is wholly owned by Morgan Stanley Smith Barney Holdings LLC (“MSSB Holdings”). Morgan Stanley, indirectly through various subsidiaries, owns a majority equity interest in MSSB Holdings. Citigroup Global Markets Inc. (“CGM”), the commodity broker and a selling agent for the Partnership, owns a minority equity interest in MSSB Holdings. Citigroup Inc. (“Citigroup”), indirectly through various subsidiaries, wholly owns CGM. Prior to July 31, 2009, the date as of which MSSB Holdings became its owner, the General Partner was wholly owned by Citigroup Financial Products Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc., the sole owner of which is Citigroup. As of December 31, 2010, all trading decisions for the Partnership are made by the Advisor (as defined below).

     The Partnership’s trading of futures, forward and options contracts, if applicable, on commodities is done primarily on United States of America and foreign commodity exchanges. It engages in such trading through a commodity brokerage account maintained with CGM.

     The General Partner and each limited partner of the Partnership (each a “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 capital contribution and profit, if any, net of distributions.

     The General Partner has agreed to make capital contributions, so that its general partnership interest will be equal to the greater of (1) an amount that will entitle the General Partner to an interest of at least 1% in each material item of the Partnership income, gain, loss deduction or credit and (2) the greater of (i) 1% of the partners’ contributions or (ii) $25,000. As of December 31, 2008, the General Partner’s interest was less than 1% of the partners’ contributions. At December 31, 2009, the General Partner increased its interest to greater than 1% of the partners’ contributions. The Partnership will be liquidated upon the first of the following to occur: December 31, 2017; the net asset value per Redeemable 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”).

     On January 2, 2008, 80% of the assets allocated to John W. Henry & Company, Inc. (“JWH” or the “Advisor”) for trading were invested in JWH Master, a limited partnership organized under the partnership laws of the State of New York. The Partnership purchased 29,209.3894 units of JWH Master (each, a “Unit of Member Interest”) with cash equal to $39,540,753. JWH Master was formed in order to permit accounts managed by JWH Master using the Global Analytics Program, a proprietary systematic trading system, to invest together in one trading vehicle. A description of the trading activities and focus of the Advisor is included on Page 8, under “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” The General Partner is also the general partner of the JWH Master. Individual and pooled accounts currently managed by the Advisor, including the Partnership, are permitted to be non-managing member of JWH Master. The General Partner and the Advisor believe that trading through this structure promotes efficiency and economy in the trading process.

     The General Partner is not aware of any material changes to the trading program discussed above during the year ended December 31, 2010.

     JWH Master’s trading of futures and forward contracts, if applicable, on commodities is done primarily on United States of America commodity exchange and foreign commodity exchanges. The Partnership and JWH Master engage in such trading through a commodity brokerage account maintained with CGM.

     A non-managing member may withdraw all or part of their capital contribution and undistributed profits, if any, from JWH Master in multiples of the net asset value per Unit of Member Interest as of the end of any day (the “Redemption Date”) after a request for redemption has been made to the General Partner at least 3 days in advance of the Redemption Date. The Units of Member Interest are classified as a liability when the non-managing member elects to redeem and informs JWH Master.

     Management and incentive fees are charged at the Partnership level. All exchange, clearing, user, give-up, floor brokerage and National Futures Association (“NFA”) fees (collectively, the “clearing fees”) are borne by the Partnership, and through its investment in JWH Master. All other fees including CGM’s direct brokerage fees are charged at the Partnership level.

For the period January 1, 2010 through December 31, 2010, the approximate average market sector distribution for the Partnership was as follows:

 

*   Due to rounding

     As of December 31, 2010 and 2009 the Partnership owned approximately 78.7% and 79.8%, respectively, of JWH Master. The Partnership intends to continue to invest a portion of its assets in JWH Master. It is JWH’s intention to invest the assets allocated by the Partnership in JWH Master. The performance of the Partnership is directly affected by the performance of JWH Master. Expenses to investors as a result of the investment in JWH Master are approximately the same and redemption rights are not affected.

     The General Partner has entered into a management agreement (the “Management Agreement”) with the Advisor which will make all commodity trading decisions for the Partnership. The Advisor is not affiliated with the General Partner or CGM. The Advisor is not responsible for the organization or operation of the Partnership.

     Pursuant to the terms of the Management Agreement, the Partnership pays the Advisor a monthly management fee equal to 1/6 of 1% (2% per year) of month-end Net Assets allocated to the Advisor and an incentive fee payable quarterly equal to 20% of the New Trading Profits. 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 the current month’s incentive fee accrual, the monthly management fee and any redemptions or distributions as of the end of such month. The Management Agreement may be terminated upon 30 days written notice by either party.

     The Advisor will not be paid incentive fees until the Advisor recovers the net loss incurred and earns additional new trading profits for the Partnership.

     The Partnership has entered into a customer agreement (the “Customer Agreement”) with CGM which provides that the Partnership will pay CGM a monthly brokerage fee equal to 11/24 of 1% (5.5% per year) of month-end Net Assets, as defined in lieu of brokerage fees on a per trade basis. Effective February 1, 2011, the Partnership reduced the monthly brokerage fee paid to CGM to 5.25% per year of month-end Net Assets. Month-end Net Assets, for the purpose of calculating brokerage fees are Net Assets, as defined in the Limited Partnership Agreement, prior to the reduction of the current month’s brokerage fee, incentive fee accrual, the monthly management fee and other expenses and any redemptions or distributions as of the end of such month. CGM also pays a portion of its brokerage fees to other properly registered selling agents and to financial advisors who have sold Redeemable Units. Brokerage fees will be paid for the life of the Partnership, although the rate at which such fees are paid may be changed. This fee may be increased or decreased at any time at CGM’s discretion upon written notice to the Partnership. The Partnership directly, and through its investment in JWH Master pays for clearing fees. In addition, CGM pays the Partnership interest on 80% of the average daily equity maintained in cash in the Partnership’s (or the Partnership’s allocable portion of JWH Master’s) brokerage account during each month at a 30-day U.S. Treasury bill rate determined weekly by CGM 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. The Customer Agreements between the Partnership and CGM and JWH Master and CGM gives the Partnership and JWH Master the legal right to net unrealized gains and losses. The Customer Agreements may be terminated upon notice by either party.

     (b) Financial information about 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, 2010, 2009, 2008, 2007 and 2006 is set forth under “Item 6. Selected Financial Data.” The Partnership’s capital as of December 31, 2010 was $64,695,711.

     (c) Narrative description of business.

See Paragraphs (a) and (b) above.

(i) through (xii) — Not applicable.

(xiii) — The Partnership has no employees.

     (d) Financial Information About Geographic Areas. The Partnership does not engage in sales of goods or services or own any long-lived assets, and therefore this item is not applicable.

     (e) Available Information. The Partnership does not have an Internet address. The Partnership will provide paper copies of its annual report on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K and any amendments to these reports free of charge upon request.

     (f) Reports to Security Holders. Not applicable.

     (g) Enforceability of Civil Liabilities Against Foreign Persons. Not applicable.

     (h) Smaller Reporting Companies. Not applicable.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

As a result of leverage, small changes in the price of the Partnership’s positions may result in major losses.

     The trading of commodity interests is speculative, volatile and involves a high degree of leverage. A small change in the market price of a commodity interest contract can produce major losses for the Partnership. Market prices can be influenced by, among other things, changing supply and demand relationships, governmental, agricultural, commercial and trade programs and policies, national and international political and economic events, weather and climate conditions, insects and plant disease, purchases and sales by foreign countries and changing interest rates.

An investor may lose all of its investment.

     Due to the speculative nature of trading commodity interests, an investor could lose all of its investment in the Partnership.

The Partnership will pay substantial fees and expenses regardless of profitability.

     Regardless of its trading performance, the Partnership will incur fees and expenses, including brokerage fees and management fees. Fees will be paid to the Advisor even if the Partnership experiences a net loss for the full year.

An investor’s ability to redeem units is limited.

     An investor’s ability to redeem Redeemable Units is limited, and no market exists for the Redeemable Units.

Conflicts of interest exist.

     The Partnership is subject to numerous conflicts of interest including those that arise from the facts that:

	1.		The General Partner and the Partnership/JWH Master commodity broker are affiliates;
	2.		The Advisor, the Partnership/JWH Master commodity broker and their principals and affiliates may trade in commodity interests for their own accounts; and
	3.		An investor’s financial advisor will receive ongoing compensation for providing services to the investor’s account.

Investing in units might not provide the desired diversification of an investor’s overall portfolio.

     The Partnership will not provide any benefit of diversification of an investor’s overall portfolio unless it is profitable and produces returns that are independent from stock and bond market returns.

Past performance is no assurance of future results.

     The Advisor’s trading strategies may not perform as they have performed in the past. The Advisor has from time to time incurred substantial losses in trading on behalf of clients.

An investor’s tax liability may exceed cash distributions.

     Investors are taxed on their share of the Partnership’s income, even though the Partnership does not intend to make any distributions.

Regulatory changes could restrict the Partnership’s operations.

     Regulatory changes could adversely affect the Partnership by restricting its markets or activities, limiting its trading and/or increasing the taxes to which investors are subject. Pursuant to the mandate of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act, signed into law on July 21, 2010, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“CFTC”) and the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) may promulgate rules to regulate swaps dealers, require that swaps be traded on an exchange or swap execution facilities, mandate additional reporting and disclosure requirements and require that derivatives (such as those traded by the Partnership) be moved into central clearinghouses. These rules, if promulgated, may negatively impact the manner in which swap contracts are traded and/or settled and limit trading by speculators (such as the Partnership) in futures and over-the-counter markets.

Speculative position and trading limits may reduce profitability.

     The CFTC and U.S. exchanges have established speculative position limits on the maximum net long or net short positions which any person may hold or control in particular futures and options on futures. The trading instructions of an advisor may have to be modified, and positions held by the Partnership may have to be liquidated in order to avoid exceeding these limits. Such modification or liquidation could adversely affect the operations and profitability of the Partnership by increasing transaction costs to liquidate positions and foregoing potential profits.

Item 2. Properties.

     The Partnership does not own or lease any properties. The General Partner operates out of facilities provided by MSSB Holdings.

Item 3. Legal Proceedings

This section describes the major pending legal proceedings, other than ordinary routine litigation incidental to the business, to which CGM 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.

CGM is a New York corporation with its principal place of business at 388 Greenwich St., New York, New York 10013. CGM 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. CGM and its affiliates also provide investment banking and other financial services for clients worldwide.

There have been no material administrative, civil or criminal actions within the past five years against Citigroup Global Markets or any of its individual principals and no such actions are currently pending, except as follows.

Credit-Crisis-Related Litigation and Other Matters

     Citigroup and CGM continue to cooperate fully in response to subpoenas and requests for information from the SEC, FINRA, the Federal Housing Finance Agency, state attorneys general, the Department of Justice and subdivisions thereof, bank regulators, and other government agencies and authorities, in connection with various formal and informal inquiries concerning Citigroup’s subprime and other mortgage-related conduct and business activities, as well as other business activities affected by the credit crisis. These business activities include, but are not limited to, Citigroup’s sponsorship, packaging, issuance, marketing, servicing and underwriting of MBS and CDOs and its origination, sale or other transfer, servicing, and foreclosure of residential mortgages.

Subprime Mortgage-Related Litigation and Other Matters

      The SEC, among other regulators, is investigating Citigroup’s subprime and other mortgage-related conduct and business activities, as well as other business activities affected by the credit crisis, including an ongoing inquiry into Citigroup’s structuring and sale of CDOs. Citigroup is cooperating fully with the SEC’s inquiries.

      On July 29, 2010, the SEC announced the settlement of an investigation into certain of Citigroup’s 2007 disclosures concerning its subprime-related business activities. On October 19, 2010, the United States District Court for the District of Columbia entered a Final Judgment approving the settlement, pursuant to which Citigroup agreed to pay a $75 million civil penalty and to maintain certain disclosure policies, practices and procedures for a three-year period. Additional information relating to this action is publicly available in court filings under the docket number 10 Civ. 1277 (D.D.C.) (Huvelle, J.).

      The Federal Reserve Bank, the OCC and the FDIC, among other federal and state authorities, are investigating issues related to the conduct of certain mortgage servicing companies, including Citigroup affiliates, in connection with mortgage foreclosures. Citigroup is cooperating fully with these inquiries.

     Certain of these regulatory matters assert claims for substantial or indeterminate damages. Some of these matters already have been resolved, either through settlements or court proceedings, including the complete dismissal of certain complaints or the rejection of certain claims following hearings.

     In the course of its business, CGM, as a major futures commission merchant and broker-dealer, is a party to various civil actions, claims and routine regulatory investigations and proceedings that the General Partner believes do not have a material effect on the business of CGM.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Overview

     The Partnership and through its investment in JWH Master, aims to achieve substantial capital appreciation through speculative trading in U.S. and international markets for currencies, interest rates, stock indices, agricultural and energy products and precious and base metals. The Partnership and JWH Master may employ futures and forward contracts in those markets.

     The General Partner manages all business of the Partnership and JWH Master. The General Partner has delegated its responsibility for the investment of the Partnership’s assets to JWH. The General Partner employs a team of approximately 40 professionals whose primary emphasis is on attempting to maintain quality control among the advisors to the Partnerships and JWH Master operated or managed by the General Partner. A full-time staff of due diligence professionals use state-of-the-art technology and on-site evaluations to monitor new and existing futures money managers. The accounting and operations staff provide processing of trading activity and reporting to limited partners and regulatory authorities. In selecting the Advisor for the Partnership and JWH Master, the General Partner considered past performance, trading style, volatility of markets traded and fee requirements. The General Partner may modify or terminate the allocation of assets to the Advisor at any time.

     Responsibilities of the General Partner include:

	•		due diligence examinations of the Advisor;
	•		selection, appointment and termination of the Advisor;
	•		negotiation of the Management Agreement; and
	•		monitoring the activity of the Advisor.

     In addition, the General Partner prepares the books and records and provides the administrative and compliance services that are required by law or regulation, from time to time, in connection with operation of the Partnership. These services include the preparation of required books and records and reports to limited partners, government agencies and regulators; computation of net asset value; calculation of fees; effecting subscriptions, redemptions and limited partner communications; and preparation of offering documents and sales literature.

     The General Partner seeks the best prices and services available in its commodity futures brokerage transactions.

     The Advisor specializes in managing institutional and individual capital in the global futures, interest rate and foreign exchange markets. Since 1981, JWH has developed and implemented proprietary trend-following trading techniques that focus on long-term trends.

     JWH trades its Diversified Plus Program directly on behalf of the Partnership and its Global Analytics Program indirectly on behalf of the Partnership, through the Partnership’s investment in the JWH Master. Its objective is capital appreciation with the reduction of the volatility and risk of loss that typically would be associated with an investment in any one JWH investment program.

     As of December 31, 2010, the Partnership’s assets were allocated among the JWH programs as follows:

		Percentage
		Allocation in the
		Partnership as of
		December 31, 2010
Broadly Diversified Programs
• JWH Global Analytics®			87	%
• JWH Diversified Plus			13	%

     The allocation of assets among the investment programs, as well as the selection of the programs used, is dynamic. While JWH’s individual investment programs are technical, also known as systematic, trend-following programs, the selection of programs as well as the allocation of assets among the programs are entirely discretionary.

     As a managed futures Partnership, the Partnership’s and JWH Master’s performance is dependent upon the successful trading of the Partnership’s and JWH Master’s Advisor to achieve the Partnership’s and JWH Master’s objectives. It is the business of the General Partner to monitor the Advisor’s performance to ensure compliance with the Partnership’s and JWH Master’s trading policies and to determine if the Advisor’s performance is meeting the Partnership’s and JWH Master’s objectives. The Partnership’s assets are allocated to two JWH investment programs: Global Analytics and Diversified Plus. The allocation was 87% and 13%, respectively. The assets allocated to the Global Analytics program are traded through JWH Master Fund LLC, to invest in one trading vehicle. The assets allocated to the Diversified Plus Program are traded directly. During the period March 1, 2000 through December 31, 2007, JWH traded its Strategic Allocation Program on behalf of the Partnership. From the Partnership’s inception through February 29, 2000, JWH employed four of its programs in trading for the Partnership. The General Partner believes that the new allocations will be more reflective of the current trading environment.

For the period January 1, 2010 through December 31, 2010 average allocation by commodity market sector:

Currencies			20.50	%
Energy			13.55	%
Grains			8.67	%
Interest Rates Non-U.S.			10.56	%
Interest Rates U.S.			8.14	%
Metals			12.90	%
Softs			11.64	%
Indices			12.55	%
Livestock			1.49	%

JWH Master Fund LLC

Currencies			19.04	%
Energy			12.43	%
Grains			12.26	%
Interest Rates Non-U.S.			12.04	%
Interest Rates U.S.			9.98	%
Metals			16.52	%
Softs			15.36	%
Indices			2.37	%

     (a) Liquidity.

     The Partnership does not engage in the sales of goods or services. Its assets are its (i) investment in JWH Master, (ii) equity in its trading account, consisting of cash and cash equivalents, net unrealized appreciation on open futures contracts, net unrealized appreciation on open forward contracts, and (iii) interest receivable. Because of the low margin deposits normally required in commodity futures trading, relatively small price movements may result in substantial losses to the Partnership. While substantial losses could lead to a material decrease in liquidity, no such illiquidity occurred during the year ended December 31, 2010.

     To minimize the risk relating to low margin deposits, the Partnership/JWH Master follow certain trading policies, including:

(i)

The Partnership/JWH Master invests its assets only in commodity interests that an Advisor believes are traded in sufficient volume to permit ease of taking and liquidating positions. Sufficient volume, in this context, refers to a level of liquidity that the Advisor believes will permit it to enter and exit trades without noticeably moving the market.

	(ii)		An Advisor will not initiate additional positions in any commodity if these positions would result in aggregate positions requiring a margin of more than 66 ⅔% of the Partnership’s net assets allocated to that Advisor.
	(iii)		The Partnership/JWH Master 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 clearinghouse, the physical commodity position is fully hedged.
	(iv)		The Partnership/JWH Master does not employ the trading technique commonly known as “pyramiding,” which the speculator uses unrealized profits on existing positions as margin for the purchases or sale of additional positions in the same or related commodities.
	(v)		The Partnership/JWH Master does not utilize borrowings other than short-term borrowings if the Partnership takes delivery of any cash commodities.
	(vi)		The Advisor may, from time to time, employ trading strategies such as spreads or straddles on behalf of the Partnership/JWH Master. “Spread” and “straddle” describes a commodity futures trading strategies involving the simultaneous buying and selling of futures contracts on the same commodity but involving different delivery dates or markets.
	(vii)		The Partnership/JWH Master will not permit the churning of its commodity trading account. The term “churning” refers to the practice of entering and exiting trades with a frequency unwarranted by legitimate efforts to profit from the trades, indicating the desire to generate commission income.

      From January 1, 2010 through December 31, 2010, the Partnership’s average margin to equity ratio (i.e., the percentage of assets on deposit required for margin) was approximately 9.7%. The foregoing margin to equity ratio takes into account cash held in the Partnership’s name, as well as the allocable value of the positions and cash held on behalf of the Partnership in the name of the JWH Master.

     In the normal course of business, the Partnership and JWH Master are, parties to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk, including derivative financial instruments and derivative commodity instruments. These financial instruments include forwards, futures and options and swaps, whose values are based upon an underlying asset, index, or reference rate, and generally represent future commitments to exchange currencies or cash balances, to purchase or sell other financial instruments at specified 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 forwards and option contracts. OTC contracts are negotiated between contracting parties and include swaps and certain forwards and option contracts. Each of these instruments is subject to various risks similar to those relating 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.

      The risk to the Limited Partners that have purchased interests in the Partnership is limited to the amount of their capital contributions to the Partnership and their share of the Partnership’s assets and undistributed profits. This limited liability is a consequence of the organization of the Partnership as a limited partnership under applicable law.

     Market risk is the potential for changes in the value of the financial instruments traded by the Partnership and JWH Master 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. The Partnership and JWH Master are exposed to a market risk equal to the value of futures and forward contracts purchased and unlimited liability on such contracts sold short.

     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. The Partnership and JWH Master risk of loss in the event of counterparty default is typically limited to the amounts recognized in the Statements of Financial Condition and not represented by the contract or notional amounts of the instruments. The Partnership’s and JWH Master’s risk of loss is reduced through the use of legally enforceable master netting agreements with counterparties that permit the Partnership and JWH Master to offset unrealized gains and losses and other assets and liabilities with such counterparties upon the occurrence of certain events. The Partnership and JWH Master have credit risk and concentration risk as the sole counterparty or broker with respect to the Partnership and JWH Master’s assets is CGM or a CGM affiliate. Credit risk with respect to exchange traded instruments, is reduced to the extent that, through CGM, the Partnership and JWH Master counterparty is an exchange or clearing organization.

     The General Partner monitors and attempts to control the Partnership and JWH Master’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 and JWH Master may be subject. These monitoring systems generally allow the General Partner to statistically analyze actual trading results with risk adjusted performance indicators and correlation statistics. In addition, online monitoring systems provide account analysis of futures and forward contracts by sector, margin requirements, gain and loss transactions and collateral positions. (See also “Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” for further information on financial instrument risk included in the notes to the financial statements.)

     Other than the risks inherent in commodity futures and swaps 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 General Partner may, in its discretion, cause the Partnership to cease trading operations and liquidate all open positions under certain circumstances including a decrease in net asset value per Redeemable Unit to less than $400 as of the close of business on any business day.

     (b) Capital resources.

     (i) The Partnership has made no material commitments for capital expenditures.

     (ii) The Partnership’s capital consists of the capital contributions of the partners as increased or decreased by gains or losses on trading and by expenses, interest income, redemptions of Redeemable Units and distributions of profits, if any. Gains or losses on trading cannot be predicted. Market movements in commodities are dependent upon fundamental and technical factors which the Advisors may or may not be able to identify, such as changing supply and demand relationships, weather, government agricultural, commercial and trade programs and policies, national and international political and economic events and changes in interest rates. Partnership expenses consist of, among other things, brokerage fees and advisory fees. The level of these expenses is dependent upon trading performance and the level of Net Assets maintained. In addition, the amount of interest income payable by CGM is dependent upon interest rates over which the Partnership has no control.

     The Partnership continues to offer Redeemable Units at the net asset value per Redeemable Unit as of the end of each month. For the year ended December 31, 2010, there were additional sales of 3,467.3878 Redeemable Units totaling $5,112,093. For the year ended December 31, 2009, there were additional sales of 2,699.3293 Redeemable Units totaling $4,610,000 and General Partner’s contribution representing 118.9902 unit equivalents totaling $200,000. For the year ended December 31, 2008, there were additional sales of 6,833.5420 Redeemable Units totaling $8,989,000.

     No forecast can be made as to the level of redemptions in any given period. A Limited Partner may require the Partnership to redeem its Redeemable Units at their net asset value as of the last day of a month on three business days’ notice to the General Partner. There is no fee charged to Limited Partners in connection with redemptions. Redemptions generally are funded out of the Partnership’s cash holdings. For the year ended December 31, 2010, 4,130.3512 Redeemable Units were redeemed totaling $5,860,745 and 109.0964 General Partner unit equivalents totaling $150,000. For the year ended December 31, 2009, 10,086.7047 Redeemable Units were redeemed totaling $16,615,340. For the year ended December 31, 2008, 11,129.5797 Redeemable Units were redeemed totaling $16,239,385.

     Redeemable Units were sold to persons and entities who are accredited investors as that term is defined in rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933 as amended (the “Securities Act”), as well as to those persons who are not accredited investors but who have either a net worth (exclusive of home, furnishings and automobile) either individually or jointly with the investor’s spouse of at least three times their investment in the Partnership (the minimum investment for which was $25,000) or gross income for the two previous years and projected gross income for the current fiscal year of not less than three times their investment in the Partnership for each year.

     (c) Results of Operations.

     For the year ended December 31, 2010, the net asset value per unit increased 23.5% from $1,409.43 to $1,741.05. For the year ended December 31, 2009, the net asset value per unit decreased 22.7% from $1,822.83 to $1,409.43. For the year ended December 31, 2008, the net asset value per unit increased 90.5% from $956.81 to $1,822.83.

     The Partnership experienced a net trading gain before brokerage fees and related fees in the year ended December 31, 2010 of $16,639,941. Gains were primarily attributable to the trading of commodity futures in currencies, grains, U.S. and non-U.S. interest rates, softs, livestock, metals and indices and were partially offset by losses in energy. The net trading gain or loss realized from the Partnership and JWH Master is disclosed on page 31 under Item 8 “Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.”

     Most financial risk assets recovered well in 2010 due to expansionary monetary and fiscal policies adopted by most central banks. However, this recovery came amidst global unrest due to geographically localized crises such as the European sovereign debt crisis and inflationary headwinds in emerging markets. Global weather conditions also played a significant role in 2010 in affecting commodity prices. Many agricultural products remained at record-level prices as extreme weather conditions such as drought, floods and winter storms affected production.

     The Partnership was profitable in agricultural markets, currencies, metals, interest rates, while registering losses in the energy sector and equity indices.

     In the agricultural sector, products such as wheat, corn, sugar, cotton, coffee and soybeans reached record price levels. In the case of cotton, prices reached 140-year highs. Extreme weather conditions in some of the biggest exporters of these products significantly disrupted the global supply. Several exporting countries even imposed an export ban to meet the internal demand. The Partnership capitalized on the strong trends in such agricultural products and produced substantial profits in this sector.

     In the currencies, the Partnership registered its most significant gains in the euro, Swiss franc, and Japanese yen. As the European debt crisis loomed, the euro dropped to some of the lowest levels against the U.S. dollar. Separately, the Japanese yen reached its highest levels in 14 years compared to U.S. dollar and the Swiss franc provided solid gains in the second half of year as the dollar weakened leading up to the second round of quantitative easing.

     In metals, the Partnership was profitable in precious metals and copper as they reached record-level prices. Precious metals such as gold and silver appealed to many investors as both inflation hedges and flight to quality. Copper reached record prices due to demand from resilient emerging markets such as China and India.

     In the interest rates sector, the Partnership recorded gains in both U.S. and non-U.S. interest rates. In the U.S., the Federal Reserve kept interest rates at historically low levels amid consistently high unemployment at above 9%. Also, as the European debt crisis seemed to engulf several countries, most notably Greece and Ireland, investors flocked to U.S. and German Bonds as flight to quality. Thus the yields remained at historically low levels, reaffirming the trend from earlier in the year.

     In equity indices, the Partnership recorded losses earlier in the year as global equities sharply corrected. The European debt crisis and “Flash crash” of equities on May 6^th came around the time that many economists were actively discussing the possibility of double dip recession. Equity indices recovered from their lowest levels following the announcement of a European Union bailout of troubled nations within the Union. Also, later in the year, the U.S. Federal Reserve announced a second round of quantitative easing which increased the appetite for risk assets.

     The Partnership registered losses in energy sector, primarily from crude oil and its derivatives as oil remained range bound on concerns over global economic growth. Oil markets remained very volatile through most of the year and reacted sharply to global events and economic factors.

     The Partnership experienced a net trading loss before brokerage fees and related fees for the year ended December 31, 2009 of $11,783,253. Losses were primarily attributable to the trading of commodity futures in currencies, energy, grains, U.S. and non-U.S. interest rates and were partially offset by gains in indices, livestock, metals and softs.

     2009 was a volatile year for the financial markets. The U.S. stock market entered 2009 reeling from the financial turmoil of 2008. The results of the sub-prime fallout, bank bailouts, auto industry bankruptcies, and capitulating economic data overwhelmed not just stock prices, but fueled extraordinarily high levels of risk aversion. The market’s recovery was driven by stability in the banking sector and a rapid recovery in global markets. By mid-year 2009, the market had seen a bottom in March, banks were seeking to return TARP bailout money and leading indicators were recovering.

     In currencies, the Partnership registered losses as the U.S. Dollar reversed the strong trend earlier in the year and started weakening against the other major currencies. Trading in Japanese yen contributed to these losses following speculation that the Japanese government may interfere in the markets to reverse a strong yen. In the energy sector, most of the products did not exhibit any strong trends and mostly remained range bound after the reversals earlier in the year. This pattern of sharp reversal followed by non-directional volatility attributed to the losses in this sector. Losses were also seen in the fixed income sector. With the economic backdrop of 2008, yields started to exhibit asymmetric volatility due to extreme uncertainty prevailing in the longer time horizon. Encouraged by the continuing fiscal and monetary efforts of the U.S. government to stabilize the economy, the markets finally began to recover. In agricultural commodities, losses were realized primarily in soybean complex, corn and wheat. Prices of corn and wheat both unexpectedly rallied in October as cold and wet weather threatened to delay harvest.

     The Partnership recorded gains in the metals sector primarily from gold. Investors across the world chose to buy gold through ETFs and bullion as a hedge against inflation, driven by the massive monetary influx of the central banks. In softs, modest gains were recorded as the strong gains in sugar offset the losses in coffee. In stock indices, strong trends emerged in the second quarter after the lows of March 2009. The Partnership was favorably positioned to capitalize on these trends and recover the losses from the sharp reversals.

     Interest income on 80% of the Partnership’s average daily equity allocated to it by the Master was earned at a 30-day U.S. Treasury bill rate determined weekly by CGM based on the average non-competitive yield on 3-month U.S. Treasury bills maturing in 30 days. Interest income for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2010 increased by $11,306 and decreased by $1,241 as compared to the corresponding periods in 2009. The increase in interest income is primarily due to higher U.S. Treasury bill rates during the three months ended December 31, 2010, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2009. The decrease in interest income is due to lower average net assets during the twelve months ended December 31, 2010 as compared to the corresponding period in 2009. Interest earned by the Partnership will increase the net asset value of the Partnership. The amount of interest income earned by the Partnership depends on the average daily equity in the Partnership’s and JWH Masters’ accounts and upon interest rates over which neither the Partnership nor CGM has control.

     Brokerage fees are calculated as a percentage of the Partnership’s adjusted net asset value on the last day of each month and are affected by trading performance, subscriptions and redemptions. Accordingly, they must be analyzed in relation to the fluctuations in the monthly net asset values. Brokerage fees and clearing fees for the three months ended December 31, 2010 increased by $63,807 and for the twelve months ended December 31, 2010 decreased by $663,252, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2009. The increase in brokerage fees and clearing fees is due to higher average net assets during the three months ended December 31, 2010 and the decrease in brokerage fees and clearing fees is due to lower average net assets during for the twelve months ended December 31, 2010 as compared to the corresponding periods in 2009.

     Management fees are calculated as a percentage of the Partnership’s net asset value as of the end of each month and are affected by trading performance, subscriptions and redemptions. Management fees for the three months ended December 31, 2010, increased by $24,265 and for the twelve months ended December 31, 2010 decreased by $244,061 as compared to the corresponding periods in 2009. The increase in management fees is due to higher average net assets during the three months ended December 31, 2010 and the decrease is due to lower average net assets during for the twelve months ended December 31, 2010, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2009.

     Incentive fees are based on the new trading profits generated by the Advisor at the end of the quarter, as defined in the advisory agreements between the Partnership, the General Partner and the Advisor. There were no incentive fees earned for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2010 and 2009.

     The Partnership pays professional fees, which generally include legal and accounting expenses. Professional fees for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 were $366,087 and $254,035, respectively.

     The Partnership pays other expenses, which generally include filing, reporting and data processing fees. Other expenses for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 were $36,909 and $76,850, respectively.

     The Partnership experienced a net trading gain before brokerage fees and related fees in the year ended December 31, 2008 of $48,958,347. Gains were primarily attributable to the trading of commodity futures in currencies, energy, grains, U.S. and non-U.S. interest rates, livestock, metals and indices and were partially offset by losses in softs.

     In 2008, the liquidity crisis that began in 2007 rapidly spread to all corners of the globe, significantly reducing global economic growth and presenting economies with difficult challenges. During the year, the world’s credit markets virtually seized up, commodity prices plunged and most major equity indices declined dramatically, and some of the large financial institutions were under pressure. Faced with unprecedented and rapid deterioration in economic data and outlook, and fearing an adverse snowball effect of the credit crunch, global central banks reacted with aggressive campaigns of interest rate cuts and coordinated capital injections. As the markets re-priced the cost of risk, several strong trends emerged. The Partnership strongly capitalized on the trends and was profitable in all the sectors: currencies, energy, grains, interest rates, metals, agricultural softs and stock indices.

     The Partnership was well positioned to capitalize on the strong trends that emerged in the currencies and realized gains for the year. The U.S. Dollar was relatively strong compared with most of the other developed economy currencies. The Euro was put to its first major test since its inception. UK, Germany and France continued to show weak growth earlier in the year and as the situations worsened in the later part of the year, these countries officially entered recession. Japanese Yen remained an exception and showed extraordinary strength as the carry trade reversed.

     The Partnership realized most of the profits in the energy sector by capturing both the bullish and the bearish trends. In the earlier part of the year, crude oil pushed towards a historic high of $147 per barrel and in the latter part, the trend suddenly reversed and a strong negative trend emerged with crude oil dropping to about $32 per barrel. Natural gas also contributed to profits as prices plunged from $14 to about $5 per MMBtu.

     In grains and agricultural softs sector, the Partnership was profitable, as the trading strategy successfully navigated the trend reversal period and captured the bullish and bearish legs of the trend across several products. Corn prices continued to show a strong correlation to the energy prices and, while peaking at 800 cents around mid year, closed the year around 400 cents.

     The Partnership was profitable in the interest rates sector, as the yields on the shorter end of the yield curve dropped to almost atypical levels. Short term U.S. Treasury bills were in such high demand due to the flight-to-quality that the yields dropped below zero. While the 10 year Treasury bill yielded on average between 3.5%-4% most of the year, the yield dropped to 2% in December. Non-U.S. interest rates also showed tremendous volatility as the rates dropped precipitously due to the actions of the central banks.

     The Partnership registered gains in the metals sector primarily from the industrials. Precious metals did not demonstrate a very strong directional trend, but the industrial metals reflected the general economic malaise. Copper, which is usually considered essential for growth, dropped from 4 cents to 1.5 cents per pound.

     Global stock indices also contributed to the gains as the indices continued to test multi-year lows. As banks continued to write off the assets and as bankruptcies loomed, investors lost confidence in the equity markets. Futures markets offered greater flexibility as the SEC temporarily banned short selling in the equity markets.

     In the General Partner’s opinion, the Advisor continues to employ its trading methods in a consistent and disciplined manner and its results are consistent with the objectives of the Partnership and expectations for the Advisor’s programs. The General Partner continues to monitor the Advisor’s performance on a daily, weekly, monthly and annual basis to ensure that these objectives are met.

      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 Funds and the Partnership depends on the Advisors’ ability to forecast changes in energy and energy related commodities. Such price changes 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 the Advisors correctly make such forecasts, the Funds and the Partnership expect to increase capital through operations.

     In allocating substantially all of the assets of the Partnership to the Master, the General Partner considered the Advisor’s past performance, trading style, volatility of markets traded and fee requirements. The General Partner may modify or terminate the allocation of assets to the Advisor and may allocate assets to additional advisors at any time.

     (d) Off-balance Sheet Arrangements. None

     (e) Contractual Obligations. None

     (f) Operational Risk

     The Partnership and JWH Master are 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 and JWH Master are 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.

     Technological Risk — the risk of loss attributable to technological limitations or hardware failure that constrain the Partnership’s and JWH Master’s ability to gather, process, and communicate information efficiently and securely, without interruption, to customers, and in the markets where the Partnership and JWH Master 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 Redeemable Unit holder, creditors, and regulators, is free of material errors.

     (g) Critical Accounting Policies.

     Partnership’s and JWH Master’s Investments. All commodity interests held by the Partnership and JWH Master (including derivative financial instruments and derivative commodity instruments) are held for trading purposes. The commodity interests are recorded on trade date and open contracts are recorded at fair value (as described below) at the measurement date. Investments in commodity interests denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates prevailing at the measurement date. Gains or losses are realized when contracts are liquidated. Unrealized gains or losses on open contracts are included as a component of equity in trading account on the Statements of Financial Condition. Realized gains or losses and any change in net unrealized gain or loss from the preceding period are reported in the Statements of Income and Expenses.

     Partnership’s and JWH Master’s Fair Value Measurements. Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to fair values derived from unobservable inputs (Level 3). The level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls shall be determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. Management has concluded that based on available information in the marketplace, the Partnership’s Level 1 assets and liabilities are actively traded.

     Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) also requires the need to use judgment in determining if a formerly active market has become inactive and in determining fair values when the market has become inactive. Management has concluded that, based on available information in the marketplace, there has not been significant a decrease in the volume and level of activity in the Partnerships Level 2 assets and liabilities.

     The Partnership will 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 make disclosures 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 as required by GAAP.

     The Partnership and JWH Master consider prices for exchange-traded commodity futures and forward contracts to be based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (Level 1). The values of non-exchange traded forwards contracts for which market quotations are not readily available are priced by broker-dealers that derive fair values for those assets from observable inputs (Level 2). Investments in JWH Master (other commodity pools) where there are no other rights or obligations inherent within the ownership interest held by the Partnership are priced based on the end of the day net asset value of JWH Master (Level 2). The value of the Partnership’s investments in JWH Master reflects its proportional interest in JWH Master. As of and for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Partnership did not hold any derivative instruments that were priced at fair value using unobservable inputs through the application of management’s assumptions and internal valuation pricing models (Level 3). The gross presentation of the fair value of the Partnership’s derivatives by instrument type is shown in Note 4, “Trading Activities” on the financial statements.

     Futures Contracts. The Partnership and JWH Master trade futures contracts. A futures contract is a firm commitment to buy or sell a specified quantity of investments, currency or a standardized amount of a deliverable grade commodity, at a specified price on a specified future date, unless the contract is closed before the delivery date or if the delivery quantity is something where physical delivery cannot occur (such as the S&P 500 Index), whereby such contract is settled in cash. Payments (“variation margin”) may be made or received by the Partnership and JWH Master each business day, depending on the daily fluctuations in the value of the underlying contracts, and are recorded as unrealized gains or losses by the Partnership and JWH Master. When the contract is closed, the Partnership and JWH Master record a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. Transactions in futures contracts require participants to make both initial margin deposits of cash or other assets and variation margin deposits directly, through the futures broker, with the exchange on which the contracts are traded. Realized gains (losses) and changes in net unrealized gains (losses) on futures contracts are included in the Statements of Income and Expenses.

     London Metals Exchange Forward Contracts. Metal contracts traded on the London Metals Exchange (“LME”) represent a firm commitment to buy or sell a specified quantity of aluminum, copper, lead, nickel, tin or zinc. LME contracts traded by the Partnership and JWH Master are cash settled based on prompt dates published by the LME. Payments (“variation margin”) may be made or received by the Partnership and JWH Master each business day, depending on the daily fluctuations in the value of the underlying contracts, and are recorded as unrealized gains or losses by the Partnership and JWH Master. A contract is considered offset when all long positions have been matched with a hike number of short positions setting on the same prompt date. When the contract is closed at the prompt date, the Partnership and JWH Master record a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. Transactions in LME contracts require participants to make both initial margin deposits of cash or other assets and variation margin deposits, through the broker, directly with the LME. Realized gains (losses) and changes in unrealized gains (losses) on metal contracts are included in the Statements of Income and Expenses.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Introduction

     The Partnership and JWH Master are speculative commodity pools. The market sensitive instruments held by them are acquired for speculative trading purposes, and all or substantially all of the Partnership’s and JWH Master’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 and JWH Master’s main line of business.

     The risk to the Limited Partners that have purchased interests in the Partnership is limited to the amount of their capital contributions to the Partnership and their share of Partnership assets and undistributed profits. This limited liability is a consequence of the organization of the Partnership as a limited partnership under applicable law.

     Market movements result in frequent changes in the fair market value of the Partnership’s and JWH Master’s open positions and, consequently, in its earnings and cash flow. The Partnership’s and JWH Master’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 effects among the Partnership’s and JWH Master’s open positions and the liquidity of the markets in which they trade.

     The Partnership and JWH Master 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 the Partnership’s and JWH Master’s past performance is not necessarily indicative of their future results.

     “Value at Risk” is a measure of the maximum amount which the Partnership and JWH Master could reasonably be expected to lose in a given market sector. However, the inherent uncertainty of the Partnership’s and JWH Master’s speculative trading and the recurrence in the markets traded by the Partnership and JWH Master 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 and JWH Master’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 and JWH Master’s losses in any market sector will be limited to Value at Risk or by the Partnership’s and JWH Master’s attempts to manage their market risk.

     Materiality as used in this section, “Quantitative and Qualitative 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 and JWH Master market sensitive instruments.

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, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)). 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 sensitive instruments held during or at the end of the reporting period).

     The Partnership’s and JWH Master’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 and JWH Master’s mark-to-market accounting, any loss in the fair value of the Partnership’s and JWH Master’s open positions is directly reflected in the Partnership’s and JWH Master’s earnings (realized or unrealized).

     Exchange maintenance margin requirements have been used by the Partnership and JWH Master 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

interval. 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 and JWH Master), 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.

     The fair value of the Partnership’s and JWH Master’s futures and forward contracts does not have any optionality component. However, the Advisor may 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 and JWH Master in almost all cases fluctuate to a lesser extent than those of the underlying instruments.

     In quantifying the Partnership’s and JWH Master’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.

     Value at Risk tables represent a probabilistic assessment of the risk of loss in market sensitive instruments. The first two tables indicate the trading Value at Risk associated with the Partnership’s and JWH Master’s open positions by market category as of December 31, 2010 and 2009. The remaining trading Value at Risk tables reflect the market sensitive instruments held by the Partnership directly (i.e. in the managed account in the Partnership’s name traded by JWH) and indirectly by JWH Master separately.

The following tables indicate the trading Value at Risk associated with the Partnership’s open positions by market category as of December 31, 2010 and 2009. As of December 31, 2010, the Partnership’s total capitalization was $64,695,711.

     The face value of the market sector instruments held by the Partnership and JWH Master are 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 and JWH Master’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 and JWH Master 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 and JWH Master — give no indication of this “risk of ruin.”

     The Partnership and JWH Master 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.

     The following qualitative disclosures regarding the Partnership’s and JWH Master’s market risk exposures — except for (i) those disclosures that are statements of historical fact and (ii) the descriptions of how the Partnership and JWH Master 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 and JWH Master’s primary market risk exposures as well as the strategies used and to be used by the General Partner and the Advisor 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 and JWH Master’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 and JWH Master. There can be no assurance that the Partnership’s and JWH Master’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 and JWH Master as of December 31, 2010, by market sector.

     Interest Rates. Interest rate movements directly affect the price of the futures positions held by the Partnership and JWH Master 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 and JWH Master’s primary interest rate exposure is to interest rate fluctuations in the United States and the other G-8 countries. However, the Partnership and JWH Master also takes futures positions on the government debt of smaller nations.

     Currencies. The Partnership’s and JWH Master’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 General Partner does not anticipate that the risk profile of the Partnership’s and JWH Master’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 dollar-based Partnership in expressing Value at Risk in a functional currency other than U.S. dollars.

     Stock Indices. The Partnership’s and JWH Master’s primary equity exposure is to equity price risk in the G-8 countries. The stock index futures traded by the Partnership and JWH Master are limited to futures on broadly based indices. As of December 31, 2010, the Partnership’s and JWH Master’s primary exposures were in the EUREX, E-Mini NASDAQ and OSE NIKKEI stock indices. The General Partner anticipates little, if any, trading in non-G-8 stock indices. The Partnership and JWH Master 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 and JWH Master to avoid being “whipsawed” into numerous small losses.)

     Metals. The Partnership’s and JWH Master’s primary metal market exposure is to fluctuations in the price of gold, silver and copper. The General Partner anticipates that gold will remain the primary metals market exposure for the Partnership and JWH Master.

     Softs. The Partnership’s and JWH Master’s primary commodities exposure is to agricultural price movements which are often directly affected by severe or unexpected weather conditions. Coffee, cotton and sugar accounted for the bulk of the Partnership’s and JWH Master’s commodity exposure as of December 31, 2010.

     Energy. The Partnership’s and JWH Master’s primary energy market exposure is to natural gas and oil price movements, often resulting from political developments in the Middle East. Oil prices can be volatile and substantial profits and losses have been and are expected to continue to be experienced in this market.

Qualitative Disclosures Regarding Non-Trading Risk Exposure

     The following were the only non-trading risk exposures of the Partnership and JWH Master as of December 31, 2010.

     Foreign Currency Balances. The Partnership’s and JWH Master’s primary foreign currency balances are in Japanese yen, Euro dollar and Canadian dollar. The Advisor regularly converts foreign currency balances to U.S. dollars in an attempt to control the Partnership’s and JWH Master’s non-trading risk.

Qualitative Disclosures Regarding Means of Managing Risk Exposure

     The General Partner monitors and attempts to control the Partnership’s and JWH Master’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 and JWH Master may be subject.

     The General Partner monitors the Partnership’s and JWH Master’s performance and the concentration of open positions, and consults with the Advisor concerning the Partnership’s and JWH Master’s overall risk profile. If the General Partner felt it necessary to do so, the General Partner could require the Advisor to close out positions as well as enter positions traded on behalf of the Partnership and JWH Master. However, any such intervention would be a highly unusual event. The General Partner primarily relies on the Advisor’s own risk control policies while maintaining a general supervisory overview of the Partnership’s and JWH Master’s market risk exposures.

     The Advisor applies its own risk management policies to its trading. The Advisor often follows diversification guidelines, margin limits and stop loss points to exit a position. The Advisor’s 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 Advisor to discuss its risk management and to look for any material changes to the Advisor’s portfolio balance and trading techniques. The Advisor is required to notify the General Partner of any material changes to its programs.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over
Financial Reporting

 

 

The management of Westport JWH Futures Fund L.P., (the Partnership), Ceres Managed Futures LLC, is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting as defined in Rules 13a – 15(f) and 15d – 15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and for our assessment of internal control over financial reporting. The Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:

 

(i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Partnership;

 

(ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and that receipts and expenditures of the Partnership are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the Partnership; and

 

(iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection and correction of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Partnership’s 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.

 

The management of Westport JWH Futures Fund L.P. has assessed the effectiveness of the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth in the Internal Control-Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). Based on our assessment, management concluded that the Partnership maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2010 based on the criteria referred to above.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Partners of
Westport JWH Futures Fund L.P.:

In our opinion, the accompanying statement of income and expenses, and statement of changes in partners’ capital present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Westport JWH Futures Fund L.P. (formerly known as Smith Barney Westport Futures Fund L.P.) at December 31, 2008 and the results of its operations for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also in our opinion, the Partnership maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2008, based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO). The Partnership’s management is responsible for these financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements and on the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting based on our integrated audit. We conducted our audit 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 and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit of the financial statements included 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, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk. Our audit also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process 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. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s 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.

Westport JWH Futures Fund L.P. (the “Partnership”) is a limited partnership organized on March 21, 1997 under the partnership laws of the State of New York to engage, directly and indirectly, in the speculative trading of a diversified portfolio of commodity interests, including futures contracts and forward contracts. The sectors traded include currencies, energy, grains, U.S. and non-U.S. interest rates, indices, softs, livestock and metals. The Partnership commenced trading on August 1, 1997. The commodity interests that are traded by the Partnership directly, and through its investment in JWH Master Fund LLC (“JWH Master”) are volatile and involve a high degree of market risk. The Partnership privately and continuously offers up to 200,000 redeemable units of limited partnership interest (“Redeemable Units”) to qualified investors. There is no maximum number of Redeemable Units that may be sold by the Partnership.

 

Ceres Managed Futures LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, acts as the general partner (the “General Partner”) and commodity pool operator of the Partnership. The General Partner is wholly owned by Morgan Stanley Smith Barney Holdings LLC (“MSSB Holdings”). Morgan Stanley, indirectly through various subsidiaries, owns a majority equity interest of MSSB Holdings. Citigroup Global Markets Inc. (“CGM”), the commodity broker and a selling agent for the Partnership, owns a minority equity interest of MSSB Holdings. Citigroup Inc. (“Citigroup”), indirectly, through various subsidiaries, wholly owns CGM. Prior to July 31, 2009, the date as of which MSSB Holdings became its owner, the General Partner was wholly owned by Citigroup Financial Products Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Citigroup Global Markets Holdings Inc., the sole owner of which is Citigroup. As of December 31, 2010, all trading decisions for the Partnership are made by the Advisor (defined below).

 

The General Partner and each limited partner of the Partnership (each a “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, 2017; the Net Asset Value per Redeemable Unit decreases to less than $400 per Redeemable Unit as of a close of any business day; or under certain other circumstances as defined in the Limited Partnership Agreement of the Partnership (the “Limited Partnership Agreement”).

Partnership’s and JWH Master’s Fair Value Measurements.  Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date under current market conditions. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1) and the lowest priority to fair values derived from unobservable inputs (Level 3). The level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement in its entirety falls shall be determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. Management has concluded that based on available information in the marketplace, the Partnership’s and JWH Master’s Level 1 assets and liabilities are actively traded.

 

GAAP also requires the need to use judgment in determining if a formerly active market has become inactive and in determining fair values when the market has become inactive. Management has concluded that, based on available information in the marketplace, there has not been a significant decrease in the volume and level of activity in the Partnerships Level 2 assets and liabilities.

 

The Partnership will 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 make disclosures 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 as required by GAAP.

 

The Partnership and JWH Master consider prices for exchange-traded commodity futures and forward contracts to be based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (Level 1). The values of non-exchange traded forward contracts for which market quotations are not readily available are priced by broker-dealers that derive fair values for those assets from observable inputs (Level 2). Investments in JWH Master (commodity pool) where there are no other rights or obligations inherent within the ownership interest held by the Partnership are priced based on the end of the day net asset value of JWH Master (Level 2). The value of the Partnership’s investments in JWH Master reflects its proportional interest in JWH Master. As of and for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Partnership and JWH Master did not hold any derivative instruments that were priced at fair value using unobservable inputs through the application of management’s assumptions and internal valuation pricing models (Level 3). The gross presentation of the fair value of the Partnership’s derivatives by instrument type is shown in Note 4, “Trading Activities.”

GAAP provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in the financial statements and requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Partnership’s financial statements to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” to be sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions with respect to tax at the Partnership level not deemed to meet the “more-likely-than-not” threshold would be recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. The General Partner has concluded that no provision for income tax is required in the Partnership’s financial statements.

 

The Partnership files U.S. federal and various state and local tax returns. No income tax returns are currently under examination. Generally, the 2007 through 2010 tax years remain subject to examination by U.S. federal and most state tax authorities. Management does not believe that there are any uncertain tax positions that require recognition of a tax liability.

 

 

 

 

The General Partner administers the business and affairs of the Partnership, including selecting one or more advisors to make trading decisions for the Partnership. The General Partner has agreed to make capital contributions, so that its general partnership interest will be equal to the greater of (1) an amount that will entitle the General Partner to an interest of at least 1% in each material item of the Partnership income, gain, loss, deduction or credit and (2) the greater of (i) 1% of the partners’ contributions or (ii) $25,000.

 

 

The General Partner, on behalf of the Partnership, has entered into a management agreement (the “Management Agreement”) with John W. Henry & Company, Inc. (“JWH”) (the “Advisor”), a registered commodity trading advisor. The Advisor is not affiliated with the General Partner or CGM and is not responsible for the organization or operation of the Partnership. The Partnership pays the Advisor a monthly management fee equal to 1/6 of 1% (2% per year) of month-end Net Assets allocated to the Advisor and an incentive fee payable quarterly equal to 20% of the New Trading Profits, as defined in the Management Agreement, earned by the Advisor for the Partnership. The Advisor will not be paid incentive fees until the Advisor recovers the net loss incurred and earns additional new trading profits for the Partnership. 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 the current month’s incentive fee accrual, the monthly management fee and any redemptions or distributions as of the end of such month. The Management Agreement may be terminated upon notice by either party.

In allocating the assets of the Partnership to the Advisor, the General Partner considers past performance, trading style, volatility of markets traded and fee requirements. The General Partner may modify or terminate the allocation of assets to the Advisor and may allocate the assets to additional advisors at any time.

 

 

The Partnership has entered into a customer agreement (the “Customer Agreement”) with CGM which provides that the Partnership will pay CGM a monthly brokerage fee equal to (5.5% per year) of month-end Net Assets, as defined, in lieu of brokerage fees on a per trade basis. Effective February 1, 2011 the Partnership reduced the monthly brokerage fee paid to CGM to 5.25% per year of month-end Net Assets. 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 the current month’s brokerage fees, incentive fee accrual, the monthly management fee and other expenses and any redemptions or distributions as of the end of such month. The Partnership will pay for National Futures Association fees as well as exchange, clearing, user, give-up and floor brokerage fees (collectively the “clearing fees”), directly and through its investment in JWH Master. CGM will pay a portion of its brokerage fees to other properly registered selling agents and to financial advisors who have sold Redeemable Units in the Partnership. Brokerage fees will be paid for the life of the Partnership, although the rate at which such fees are paid may be changed. This fee may be increased or decreased at any time at CGM’s discretion upon written notice to the Partnership. All of the Partnership’s assets, not held in JWH Master’s account at CGM, are deposited in the Partnership’s account at CGM. The Partnership’s cash is deposited by CGM in segregated bank accounts to the extent required by Commodity Futures Trading Commission regulations. At December 31, 2010 and 2009, the amounts of cash held for margin requirements were $735,316 and $657,666, respectively. CGM has agreed to pay the Partnership interest on 80% of the average daily equity maintained in cash in the Partnership’s (or the Partnership’s allocable portion of JWH Master’s) account during each month at a 30-day U.S. Treasury bill rate determined weekly by CGM 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 may be terminated upon notice by either party.

 

 

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 Statements of Income and Expenses.

 

The Customer Agreements between the Partnership and CGM and JWH Master and CGM give the Partnership and JWH Master the legal right to net unrealized gains and losses on open futures and forward contracts. The Partnership and JWH Master net, for financial reporting purposes, the unrealized gains and losses on open futures and forward contracts on the Statements of Financial Condition.

 

All of the commodity interests owned by the Partnership are held for trading purposes. The average number of futures contracts traded for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 based on a monthly calculation, was 244 and 204, respectively. The average number of metal forward contracts traded for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 based on a monthly calculation was 23 and 27, respectively. In prior year, the average contracts were based on a quarterly and not a monthly calculation. The amounts for the year ended December 31, 2009 have been revised accordingly.

 

Brokerage fees are calculated as a percentage of the Partnership’s adjusted net asset value on the last day of each month and are affected by trading performance, additions and redemptions.

The Advisor trades a portion of the assets allocated to the Advisor directly, in accordance with the systematic JWH Diversified Plus Program.

 

On January 2, 2008, 80% of the assets allocated to the Advisor for trading were invested in JWH Master, a limited liability company organized under the laws of the State of New York. The Partnership purchased 29,209.3894 units of JWH Master (each, a “Unit of Member Interest”) with cash equal to $39,540,753. JWH Master was formed in order to permit accounts managed by the Advisor using the Global Analytics Program, a proprietary, systematic trading system, to invest together in one trading vehicle. The General Partner is also the general partner of JWH Master. Individual and pooled accounts currently managed by the Advisor, including the Partnership, are permitted to be non-managing members of JWH Master. The General Partner and the Advisor believe that trading through this structure promotes efficiency and economy in the trading process.

 

The General Partner is not aware of any material changes to the trading programs discussed above during the year ended December 31, 2010.

 

The JWH Master’s trading of futures and forward contracts, if applicable, on commodities is done primarily on U.S. and foreign commodity exchanges. JWH Master engages in such trading through a commodity brokerage account maintained with CGM.

 

A non-managing member may withdraw all or part of its redeemable capital contributions and undistributed profits, if any, from JWH Master in multiples of the net asset value per Unit of Member Interest as of the end of any day (the “Redemption Date”) after a request for redemption has been made to the General Partner at least 3 days in advance of the Redemption Date. The Units of Member Interest is classified as a liability when the non-managing member elects to redeem and informs JWH Master.

 

Management and incentive fees are charged at the Partnership level. All clearing fees are borne by the Partnership and through its investment in JWH Master. All other fees including CGM’s direct brokerage fees are charged at the Partnership level.

 

As of December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Partnership owned approximately 78.7 and 79.8%, respectively of JWH Master. The Partnership intends to continue to invest a portion of its assets in JWH Master. The performance of the Partnership is directly affected by the performance of JWH Master. Expenses to investors as a result of the investment in the JWH Master are approximately the same and redemption rights are not affected.

Subscriptions are accepted monthly from investors and they become Limited Partners on the first day of the month after their subscription is processed. 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. A Limited Partner may require the Partnership to redeem its Redeemable Units at their net asset value as of the last day of each month on three business days’ notice to the General Partner. No fee will be charged for redemptions.

 

 

Changes in the net asset value per unit for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008 were as follows:

In the normal course of business, the Partnership and JWH Master are, parties to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk, including derivative financial instruments and derivative commodity instruments. These financial instruments may include forwards and futures, whose values are based upon an underlying asset, index, or reference rate, and generally represent future commitments to exchange currencies or cash balances, 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 forwards and option contracts. OTC contracts are negotiated between contracting parties and include certain forwards and option contracts. 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.

 

The risk to the Limited Partners that have purchased interests in the Partnership is limited to the amount of their capital contributions to the Partnership and their share of the Partnership’s assets and undistributed profits. This limited liability is a consequence of the organization of the Partnership as a limited partnership under applicable law.

 

Market risk is the potential for changes in the value of the financial instruments traded by the Partnership and JWH Master 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. The Partnership and JWH Master are exposed to a market risk equal to the value of futures and forward contracts purchased and unlimited liability on such contracts sold short.

 

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. The Partnership’s and JWH Master’s risk of loss in the event of a counterparty default is typically limited to the amounts recognized in the Statements of Financial Condition and not represented by the contract or notional amounts of the instruments. The Partnership’s and JWH Master’s risk of loss is reduced through the use of legally enforceable master netting agreements with counterparties that permit the Partnership and JWH Master to offset unrealized gains and losses and other assets and liabilities with such counterparties upon the occurrence of certain events. The Partnership and JWH Master have credit risk and concentration risk as the sole counterparty or broker with respect to the Partnership and JWH Master assets is CGM or a CGM affiliate. Credit risk with respect to exchange-traded instruments, is reduced to the extent that, through CGM, the Partnership and JWH Master counterparty is an exchange or clearing organization.

 

The General Partner monitors and attempts to control the Partnership’s and JWH Master’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 and JWH Master may be subject. These monitoring systems generally allow the General Partner to statistically analyze actual trading results with risk-adjusted performance indicators and correlation statistics. In addition, online monitoring systems provide account analysis of futures and forward contracts by sector, margin requirements, gain and loss transactions and collateral positions.

 

The majority of these instruments mature within one year of the inception date. However, due to the nature of the Partnership’s and JWH Master’s business, these instruments may not be held to maturity.
