Item
1.01. Entry into a Material
Definitive Agreement.
Effective October 1, 2010, RJO
Global Trust (the “Trust”) entered into advisory agreements (each an “Agreement”
and together the “Agreements”) with Dominion Capital Management Institutional
Advisors, Inc. (“Dominion”) and Trigon Investment Advisors, LLC (“Trigon”) to
engage Dominion and Trigon as commodity trading advisors to the
Trust. Pursuant to the Agreements, beginning on or about October 1,
2010, Dominion and Trigon will begin trading assets for the Trust in accordance
with their “Sapphire” and “Discretionary Macro” programs,
respectively. The Trust will pay Dominion and Trigon an annual
management fee of up to 2% of the net asset value of the Trust’s assets traded
by each advisor, as well as an incentive fee of up to 20% of the new trading
profit (as defined in each Agreement) generated by each advisor. Any
trading losses must be recovered before new trading profit can be
earned.
Each
Agreement has an initial term of one year, which, unless previously terminated,
will automatically renew for additional one-year periods until terminated in
accordance with the terms of each Agreement. Dominion and Trigon may
terminate their respective Agreement upon written notice sixty days’ prior to
the expiration of any one-year period. The Trust and R.J. O’Brien
Fund Management, LLC (the “Managing Owner”) are entitled to terminate the
Agreements at any month-end upon five days’ prior written notice to Dominion or
Trigon or at any time upon the occurrence of certain events (as specified in
each Agreement). Dominion or Trigon are also entitled to terminate
their respective Agreement at any time upon thirty days’ written notice to the
Trust and Managing Owner if certain other events occur (as specified in each
Agreement).

Trust’s previous allocation and approximate reallocation of its assets effective
