PART I
Item 1.   Business.
     (a) General Development of Business. Warrington Fund L.P. (the “Partnership”) is a limited partnership organized on November 28, 2005 under the partnership laws of the State of New York to engage in the speculative trading of commodity interests including futures and options contracts. The commodity interests that are traded by the Partnership are volatile and involve a high degree of market risk. The Partnership privately and continuously offers up to 500,000 Redeemable Units in the Partnership to qualified investors. There is no maximum number of Redeemable Units that may be sold by the Partnership.
     During the initial offering period (January 17, 2006 to February 21, 2006), the Partnership sold 108,279 redeemable units of limited partnership interest (“Redeemable Units”) at $1,000 per Redeemable Unit, as well as 300 units of special limited partnership interest at $1,000 per Redeemable Unit. In order to form the Partnership, the General Partner and an initial limited partner, each contributed $1,000 to the Partnership for one unit of general partnership interest and limited partnership interest, respectively. The Partnership commenced its operations on February 21, 2006. No securities which represent an equity interest or any other interest in the Partnership trade on any public market. Subscriptions and redemptions of Redeemable Units and General Partner contributions and redemptions for the years ended December 31, 2010, 2009 and 2008 are reported in the Statements of Changes in Partners’ Capital on page 28 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 of the trading decisions for the Partnership are made by the Advisor (defined below). A description of the trading activities and focus of the Advisor is included on page 7 under “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation.”
     The Partnership’s trading of futures 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, after the allocation to the Special Limited Partner (defined below), 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 profits, if any, net of distributions.
     The Partnership will be liquidated upon the first to occur of the following: December 31, 2025; when the net asset value per Redeemable Unit decreases to less than $400 per Redeemable Unit as of the close of business on any business day; a decline in net assets after trading commences to less than $1,000,000; or under certain circumstances as defined in the Limited Partnership Agreement of the Partnership (the “Limited Partnership Agreement”).
     For the period January 1, 2010 through December 31, 2010, the approximate average market sector allocation for the Partnership was 100% indices.
     The General Partner administers the business and affairs of the Partnership. The Partnership pays a monthly administrative fee equal to 1/24 of 1% (1/2 of 1% per year) of month-end Net Assets of the Partnership. Month-end Net Assets, for the purpose of calculating administrative fees are Net Assets, as defined in the Limited Partnership Agreement, prior to the reduction of the current month’s management fee, profit share allocation accrual, the General Partner’s administrative fee and any redemptions or distributions as of the end of such month. This fee may be increased or decreased at the discretion of the General Partner.
     The General Partner has entered into a management agreement (the “Management Agreement”) with Warrington Advisors, LLC (“Warrington,” the “Special Limited Partner,” or the “Advisor”), a registered commodity trading advisor. Scott C. Kimple, the sole principal of Warrington, is currently employed by Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC and a selling agent for the Partnership. The Advisor will make all commodity trading decisions for the

Partnership and is not affiliated with the General Partner or CGM. The Advisor is not responsible for the organization 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 adjusted Net Assets managed by the Advisor. Month-end Net Assets, for the purpose of calculating management fees are Net Assets, as defined in the Limited Partnership Agreement, prior to the reduction of the current month’s management fee, profit share allocation accrual, the General Partner’s administrative 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 addition, the Advisor is a Special Limited Partner of the Partnership and receives a quarterly profit share allocation to its capital account in the Partnership in the form of units of the Partnership, the value of which shall be equal to 20% of new trading profits, as defined in the Management Agreement, earned by the Advisor on behalf of the Partnership during each calendar quarter and are issued as Special Limited Partner Units. The Advisor will not receive a profit share allocation until the Advisor recovers the net loss incurred and earn 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 5/16 of 1% (3.75% 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, management fee, profit share allocation accrual, the General Partner’s administrative fee, other expenses and any redemptions or distributions as of the end of such month. CGM will pay 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. This fee does not include exchange, give-up, user, clearing, floor brokerage and National Futures Association (“NFA”) fees (collectively, the “clearing fees”) which are borne by the Partnership. The Partnership’s cash is deposited by CGM in segregated bank accounts to the extent required by Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“CFTC”) regulations. CGM will pay the Partnership interest on 80% of the average daily equity maintained in cash in its account during each month at a 30-day U.S. Treasury bill rate determined weekly by 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. CGM will pay such interest to the Partnership out of its own funds whether or not it is able to earn the interest it has obligated itself to pay. The Customer Agreement between the Partnership and CGM gives the Partnership the legal right to net unrealized gains and losses. The Customer Agreement 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 and 2007 and for the period from February 21, 2006 (commencement of trading operations) to December 31, 2006, is set forth under “Item 6. Selected Financial Data.” The Partnership’s capital as of December 31, 2010 was $222,241,881.

Table of Contents

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’s commodity broker are affiliates;
 
  2.   The Advisor, the Partnership’s 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 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 or its subsidiaries is a party or to which any of their property is subject. There are no material legal proceedings pending against the Partnership or the General Partner.
     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 CGM 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 aims to achieve substantial capital appreciation through speculative trading, directly and indirectly, in U.S. and international markets for currencies, interest rates, stock indices, agricultural and energy products and precious and base metals. The Partnership may employ futures, options on futures and forward contracts in those markets.
     The General Partner manages all business of the Partnership. The General Partner has delegated its responsibility for the investment of the Partnership’s assets to Warrington. The General Partner employs a team of approximately 40 professionals whose primary emphasis is to the Advisor on attempting to maintain quality control among the advisors to the partnerships 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, the General Partner considered past performance, trading style, volatility of markets traded and fee requirements.
     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.
     Warrington trades primarily futures contracts and options on futures contracts on the S&P 500 Index and the Dow Jones Index. However, Warrington’s trading strategy may also include the trading of additional commodity interests such as U.S. Treasury Bonds, currencies, gold, silver and energy products. Currently, the Advisor limits its trading to listed futures and options on futures contracts on U.S. futures and options exchanges.

     The strategies incorporate both directional and non-directional elements. Directional strategies will utilize options and combinations of options with the goal of capturing specific moves in the price of the underlying commodity interest. Non-directional strategies attempt to capture and retain premiums on the sale of uncovered options and combinations of options. The Advisor may employ combinations of options commonly known as “spreads” or “straddles” in conjunction with both directional and non-directional strategies. “Spreads” and “straddles” involve the simultaneous buying and selling of contracts on the same commodity but with different delivery dates or markets.
     The trading methods and strategies are designed to preserve original equity. Each trade is analyzed using a mathematical pricing model to determine if its potential return justifies the attendant risk. Risk management techniques emphasize low standard deviation trades over those that appear to have greater risk. Warrington’s Core Trading Program, the Advisor’s proprietary program, attempts to limit the equity at risk on each trade and in each market. The Advisor will attempt to minimize the risks associated with adverse moves in either price or volatility through various hedging techniques. The specific method or extent of hedging at any time will be determined subjectively by Warrington. There is no assurance that hedging techniques will be effective in reducing risk.
     The trading strategies have been internally researched and developed. They are primarily technical in nature, i.e., they are developed from the research and analysis of patterns of intra-day, daily, weekly and monthly price movements, and of proprietary indicators or standard indicators such as volume and open interest. Warrington considers the effects of some key fundamental factors in certain situations, especially for the purpose of risk control. The time frame for holding a position is usually less than five weeks. The trading program also emphasizes current and ongoing research and analysis of market behavior to continue developing the strategies.
     Warrington believes that the development of a commodity trading strategy is a continual process. As a result of further research and analysis into the performance of Warrington’s methods, changes may be made from time to time in the specific manner in which these trading methods are employed. As a result of such modifications, the trading methods used in the future might differ from those currently employed.
     The exact nature of Warrington’s methods are proprietary and confidential. The foregoing description is of necessity general and is not intended to be exhaustive. Trading decisions require the exercise of Warrington’s judgment. The decision not to trade certain commodities or not to make certain trades may result at times in missing price moves and profits, which other advisors who are willing to trade these commodities may be able to capture. There is no assurance that Warrington’s trading will be profitable.
     Future trading performance may be affected by the increasing amount of funds directed by Warrington. For example, in certain commodity interests the Advisor will be unable to acquire positions as large as its strategy might otherwise dictate because the size of speculative positions is limited by CFTC or exchange rules. Also, “skid” or “slippage” (the difference between ideal and actual trade execution prices, and the transaction costs resulting there from) will increase with the execution of larger orders.
     As a managed futures partnership, the Partnership’s performance is dependent upon the successful trading of the Partnership’s Advisor to achieve the Partnership’s objectives. It is the business of the General Partner to monitor the Advisor’s performance to assure compliance with the Partnership’s trading policies and to determine if the Advisor’s performance is meeting the Partnership’s objectives. Based on 2010 results, the General Partner continues to believe the Advisor’s program has met the Partnership’s objectives and expects to continue to allocate the Partnership’s assets to the Advisor and this program unless otherwise indicated.
     (a) Liquidity.
     The Partnership does not engage in sales of goods or services. Its only assets are its equity in its trading account, consisting of cash, net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on open futures and options contracts and 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 in the year of December 31, 2010.
     To minimize the risk relating to low margin deposits, the Partnership follows certain trading policies, including:

Table of Contents

  (i)   The Partnership invests its assets only in commodity interests that the 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)   The Advisor will not initiate additional positions in any commodity if these positions would result in aggregate positions requiring a margin of more than 66 2/3% of the Partnership’s net assets allocated to the Advisor.
 
  (iii)   The Partnership may occasionally accept delivery of a commodity. Unless such delivery is disposed of promptly by retendering the warehouse receipt representing the delivery to the appropriate clearinghouse, the physical commodity position is fully hedged.
 
  (iv)   The Partnership does not employ the trading technique commonly known as “pyramiding”, in 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 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. “Spreads” and “Straddles” describe 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 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 40.7%.
     In the normal course of business, the Partnership is party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk, including derivative financial instruments and derivative commodity instruments. These financial instruments include forwards, futures and options, whose values are based upon an underlying asset, index, or reference rate, and generally represent future commitments to exchange currencies or cash 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 option contracts. OTC contracts are negotiated between contracting parties and include forwards, swaps and certain options. 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 in limited the amount of their capital contributions to the Partnership and their share of the Partnership’s assets and undistributed profits. The limited liability is a consequence 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 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 is 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 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 risk of loss is reduced through the use of legally enforceable master netting agreements with counterparties that permit the Partnership to offset unrealized gains and losses and other assets and liabilities with such counterparties upon the occurrence of certain events. The Partnership has credit risk and concentration risk as the sole counterparty or broker with respect to the Partnership’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’s counterparty is an exchange or clearing organization.

     As both a buyer and seller of options, the Partnership pays or receives a premium at the outset and then bears the risk of unfavorable changes in the price of the contract underlying the option. Written options expose the Partnership to potentially unlimited liability; for purchased options, the risk of loss is limited to the premiums paid. Certain written put options permit cash settlement and do not require the option holder to own the reference asset. The Partnership does not consider these contracts to be guarantees.
     The General Partner monitors and attempts to control the Partnership’s risk exposure on a daily basis through financial, credit and risk management monitoring systems, and accordingly, believes that it has effective procedures for evaluating and limiting the credit and market risks to which the Partnership 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, forwards and options 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 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 Advisor 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, advisory fees and administrative fees. The level of these expenses is dependent upon the level of trading and the ability of the Advisor to identify and take advantage of price movements in the commodity markets, in addition to 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.
     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 10 days’ notice to the General Partner. For the purpose of a redemption, any accrued liability for reimbursement of offering and organization expenses for the Initial Offering Period will not reduce net asset value per Redeemable Unit. 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, 76,284.8496 Redeemable Units were redeemed totaling $79,204,024. For the year ended December 31, 2009, 50,314.8532 Redeemable Units were redeemed totaling $53,480,428. For the year ended December 31, 2008, 65,710.7432 Redeemable Units were redeemed totaling $73,330,014, and 5,968.2288 Units of Special Limited Partnership Interest totaling $7,487,599 and 1,631.0000 of General Partner unit equivalents totaling $1,973,412 were redeemed.
     For the year ended December 31, 2010, there we additional sales of 62,812.7486 Redeemable Units totaling $69,739,000 and General Partner contributions representing 213.4599 unit equivalents totaling $250,000. For the year ended December 31, 2009, there were additional sales of 52,976.2953 Redeemable Units totaling $57,366,000 and General Partner contributions representing 2,236.9147 unit equivalents totaling $2,455.036. For the year ended December 31, 2008, there were additional sales of 74,341.9316 Redeemable Units totaling $90,506,635 and an allocation of 1,840.4704 Redeemable Units of Special Limited Partnership Interest totaling $2,378,053.

     (c) Results of Operations.
     For the year ended December 31, 2010, the net asset value per unit decreased 10.4% from $1,133.61 to $1,015.78. For the year ended December 31, 2009, the net asset value per unit increased 13.9% from $995.61 to $1,133.61. For the year ended December 31, 2008, the net asset per value unit decreased 20.3% from $1,249.46 to $995.61.
     The Partnership experienced a net trading loss of $13,921,024 before brokerage fees and related fees in 2010. Losses were primarily attributable to the trading of the S&P Index Calls and Puts and offset by gains in S&P Index futures. The net trading gain or loss for the Partnership is discussed on page 27 under Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.
     2010 proved to be a difficult year for Warrington as the market movements in the S&P 500 were quite volatile given the continued global financial calamity. During the first quarter of the year Warrington made some gains by continuing to implement their debit spread strategy in the S&P 500 ( by ) but as concerns grew about the financial health of the United States as well as Europe the markets became much more volatile. The biggest story in 2010 came during the flash crash of May 6th, 2010, which saw a 1,000 point move in the Dow Jones reverse almost to the exact valuation it opened at on that day in May. The volatility associated with these market moves had a significant impact on the S&P 500 and Warrington’s strategy took a significant loss due to (given ) both their original portfolio positioning and subsequent decision to eliminate exposure given how quickly the market moved against them and how quickly it corrected itself. Despite the losses in 2010 performance was largely driven by this seismic event in May as modest gains were made throughout the second half of 2010 but were not enough to absorb the losses in May.
     The Partnership experienced a net trading gain of $46,601,532 before fees and related fees in 2009. Gains were primarily attributable to the trading of the S&P 500 Index futures, S&P Index Calls and Puts.
     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. The Partnership realized gains as the equity market traded within expected ranges.
     During the first quarter, the portfolio captured the range bound price action in the equity index as prices fluctuated dramatically within the range. In February, the market weakened on economic data and showed a bearish trend. The portfolio profited by employing a fractional position of ratio put spreads during the decline. While the weakness in the overall equity markets continued unabated into early March, the market rallied in the later half of the month, partially offsetting some gains for the month.
     Entering April with a partial position of ratio put spreads, the Advisor was positioned for a decline in the stock market while also seeking to minimize the risk of losses from further rallies. As the market steadily climbed, the Advisor adjusted the ratio put spreads that it held, positioning the Partnership to potentially capitalize on a retracement in the S&P 500. The beginning of May saw the rally from the March lows continue unabated. The bearish position continued in June. Given the evidence showing that the S&P 500 had been unable to trade meaningfully higher for two weeks after making new highs for the year at the beginning of the month, the probability was high that a pullback in the S&P 500 would occur.
     The S&P 500 posted another strong third quarter. While profitable in this market rally, the Partnership’s advisor recognized a market phenomenon that had been difficult to trade. When stocks declined for 2 to 3 days, the VIX spiked appreciably and the anecdotal “fear” in the market climbed rapidly. This rapid escalation in “fear” tended to dampen market downside moves, as the worst declines tended to come when market participants failed to fully appreciate the magnitude of the decline until significant damage had already occurred.
     The final quarter of the year finished strong with solid returns for November and December. Within the first few days of November, the S&P 500 quickly offset the declines from the end of October. After just eight trading days, the S&P 500 had gained 6.8%. As this rally progressed, the Advisor reduced the portfolio’s holdings to realize profits. December was an uneventful month for the S&P 500. The trading range for the market was approximately 3.6%, a range that might have been witnessed on any given day earlier in the year. Warrington’s performance has been very positive for 2009, even though market conditions were less than optimal when compared to the ideal trading environment for the Partnership’s strategy.

     Interest income on 80% of the Partnership’s daily average equity maintained in cash in its 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. Interest income for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2010 increased by $42,973 and $66,308, respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2009. The increase in interest income is due to higher U.S. Treasury bill rates during the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2010, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2009. Interest earned by the Partnership will increase the net asset value of the Partnership.
     Brokerage fees are calculated on 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 decreased by $82.764 due to lower average net assets as compared to the corresponding period in 2009, and for the twelve months ended December 31, 2010 increased by $1,068,093 due to higher average net assets, 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 three months ended December 31, 2010 decreased by $81,773 due to lower average net assets as compared to the corresponding period in 2009, and for the twelve months ended December 31, 2010 increased by $461,898, due to higher average net assets, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2009.
     Administrative 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. Administrative fees for the three months ended December 31, 2010 decreased $20,443 due to lower average net assets as compared to the corresponding period in 2009, and for the twelve months ended December 31, 2010 increased by $115,476 due to higher average net assets, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2009.
     Special Limited Partner profit share allocations (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 profit share allocations earned for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, respectively. 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 pays professional fees, which generally include legal and accounting expenses. Professional fees for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 were $262,170 and $204,962, 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 $40,139 and $43,917, respectively.

     The Partnership experienced a net trading loss, before brokerage fees and related fees in 2008 of $45,249,616. Losses were primarily attributable to the trading of S&P 500 Index Puts and were partially offset by gains in S&P 500 Index futures and S&P 500 Index Calls.
     In 2008, the liquidity crisis that began in 2007 rapidly spread to all corners of the globe, significantly pushing down global economic growth and presenting the U.S. economy with the hardest challenges since the Great Depression. During the year, the world’s credit markets virtually seized up, commodity prices plunged and most major equity indices declined dramatically, while some of the largest U.S. financial institutions were under pressure. Faced with unprecedented rapid deterioration in economic data and outlook, and fearing a snowball adverse effect of the credit crunch, global central banks reacted with aggressive campaigns of interest rate cuts and coordinated capital injections. High volatility across most market sectors was a manifestation of investor fears and anxiety. Amid this backdrop, the Partnership suffered losses for the year from trading in the S&P 500 Index.
     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 assure these objectives are met. The General Partner may modify or terminate the allocation of assets to the Advisor at any time.
     Commodity markets are highly volatile. Broad price fluctuations and rapid inflation increase the risks involved in commodity trading, but also increase the possibility of profit. The profitability of the Partnership depends on the existence of major price trends and the ability of the Advisor to identify those price trends correctly. Price trends are influenced by, among other things, changing supply and demand relationships, weather, governmental, agricultural, commercial and trade programs and policies, national and international political and economic events and changes in interest rates. To the extent that the Advisor correctly makes such forecasts, the Partnership expects to increase capital through operations.
      In allocating substantially all of the assets of the Partnership to the Advisor, the General Partner considered the Advisor’s past performance, trading style, volatility of the markets traded and fee requirements. The General Partner may modify or terminate the allocation of assets to the Advisor at any time.
     (d) Off-balance Sheet Arrangements. None
     (e) Contractual Obligations. None
     (f) Operational Risk
     The Partnership is directly exposed to market risk and credit risk, which arise in the normal course of its business activities. Slightly less direct, but of critical importance, are risks pertaining to operational and back office support. This is particularly the case in a rapidly changing and increasingly global environment with increasing transaction volumes and an expansion in the number and complexity of products in the marketplace.
     Such risks include:
     Operational/Settlement Risk — the risk of financial and opportunity loss and legal liability attributable to operational problems, such as inaccurate pricing of transactions, untimely trade execution, clearance and/or settlement, or the inability to process large volumes of transactions. The Partnership is subject to increased risks with respect to its trading activities in emerging market securities, where clearance, settlement, and custodial risks are often greater than in more established markets.
     Technological Risk — the risk of loss attributable to technological limitations or hardware failure that constrain the Partnership’s ability to gather, process, and communicate information efficiently and securely, without interruption, to customers, and in the markets where the Partnership participates.
     Legal/Documentation Risk — the risk of loss attributable to deficiencies in the documentation of transactions (such as trade confirmations) and customer relationships (such as master netting agreements) or errors that result in noncompliance with applicable legal and regulatory requirements.
     Financial Control Risk — the risk of loss attributable to limitations in financial systems and controls. Strong financial systems and controls ensure that assets are safeguarded, that transactions are executed in accordance with management’s authorization, and that financial information utilized by management and communicated to external parties, including the Partnership’s Redeemable Unit holders, creditors, and regulators, is free of material errors.

     (g) Critical Accounting Policies.
     Partnership’s Investments. All commodity interests (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 options 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 gains or losses from the preceding period is reported in the Statements of Income and Expenses.
     Partnership’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. 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, the Partnership’s Level 1 assets and liabilities are actively traded.
     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 under GAAP.
     The Partnership considers prices for exchange traded commodity futures and options contracts to be based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (Level 1). The values of forwards, swaps and certain options 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). As of and for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Partnership did not hold any derivative instruments for which market quotations were not readily available and which were priced by broker-dealers that derive fair values for those assets from observable inputs (Level 2) or 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.
     Options. The Partnership may purchase and write (sell), both exchange listed and OTC, options on commodities or financial instruments. An option is a contract allowing, but not requiring, its holder to buy (call) or sell (put) a specific or standard commodity or financial instrument at a specified price during a specified time period. The option premium is the total price paid or received for the option contract. When the Partnership writes an option, the premium received is recorded as a liability in the Statements of Financial Condition and marked to market daily. When the Partnership purchases an option, the premium paid is recorded as an asset in the Statements of Financial Condition and marked to market daily. Realized gains (losses) and changes in unrealized gains (losses) on options contracts are included in the Statements of Income and Expenses.

Item 7A.   Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
     Introduction
     The Partnership is a speculative commodity pool. The market sensitive instruments held by it are acquired for speculative trading purposes, and all or substantially all of the Partnership’s assets are subject to the risk of trading loss. Unlike an operating company, the risk of market sensitive instruments is integral, not incidental, to the Partnership’s main line of business.
     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 movements result in frequent changes in the fair value of the Partnership’s open positions and, consequently, in its earnings and cash balance. The Partnership’s market risk is influenced by a wide variety of factors, including the level and volatility of interest rates, exchange rates, equity price levels, the market value of financial instruments and contracts, the diversification effects among the Partnership’s open positions and the liquidity of the markets in which it trades.
     The Partnership rapidly acquires and liquidates both long and short positions in a wide range of different markets. Consequently, it is not possible to predict how a particular future market scenario will affect performance, and the Partnership’s past performance is not necessarily indicative of its future results.
     “Value at Risk” is a measure of the maximum amount which the Partnership could reasonably be expected to lose in a given market sector. However, the inherent uncertainty of the Partnership’s speculative trading and the recurrence in the markets traded by the Partnership of market movements far exceeding expectations could result in actual trading or non-trading losses far beyond the indicated Value at Risk or the Partnership’s experience to date (i.e., “risk of ruin”). In light of the foregoing, as well as the risks and uncertainties intrinsic to all future projections, the inclusion of the quantification in this section should not be considered to constitute any assurance or representation that the Partnership’s losses in any market sector will be limited to Value at Risk or by the Partnership’s attempts to manage its market risk.
     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.
     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 risk exposure in the various market sectors traded by the Advisor is quantified below in terms of Value at Risk. Due to the Partnership’s mark-to-market accounting, any loss in the fair value of the Partnership’s open positions is directly reflected in the Partnership’s earnings (realized or unrealized) and cash balance. Exchange maintenance margin requirements have been used by the Partnership as the measure of its Value at Risk. Maintenance margin requirements are set by exchanges to equal or exceed the maximum losses reasonably expected to be incurred in the fair value of any given contract in 95%-99% of any one-day intervals. The

15


Table of Contents

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. 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 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 in almost all cases fluctuate to a lesser extent than those of the underlying instruments.
     In quantifying the Partnership’s Value at Risk, 100% positive correlation in the different positions held in each market risk category has been assumed. Consequently, the margin requirements applicable to the open contracts have simply been added to determine each trading category’s aggregate Value at Risk. The diversification effects resulting from the fact that the Partnership’s positions are rarely, if ever, 100% positively correlated have not been reflected.
The Partnership’s Trading Value at Risk in Different Market Sectors
     Value at Risk tables represent a probalistic assessment of the risk of loss in market sensitive instruments. 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 and the highest, lowest and average value at any point during the years. All open position trading risk exposures of the Partnership have been included in calculating the figures set forth below. As of December 31, 2010, the Partnership’s total capitalization was $222,241,881.

capitalization of the Partnership. The magnitude of the Partnership’s open positions creates a “risk of ruin” not typically found in most other investment vehicles. Because of the size of its positions, certain market conditions — unusual, but historically recurring from time to time — could cause the Partnership to incur severe losses over a short period of time. The foregoing Value at Risk table — as well as the past performance of the Partnership — give no indication of this “risk of ruin.”
     Qualitative Disclosures Regarding Primary Trading Risk Exposures
     The following qualitative disclosures regarding the Partnership’s market risk exposures — except for (i) those disclosures that are statements of historical fact and (ii) the descriptions of how the Partnership manages its primary market risk exposures — constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. The Partnership’s primary market risk exposures, as well as the strategies used and to be used by the General Partner and the 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 risk controls to differ materially from the objectives of such strategies. Government interventions, defaults and expropriations, illiquid markets, the emergence of dominant fundamental factors, political upheavals, changes in historical price relationships, an influx of new market participants, increased regulation and many other factors could result in material losses as well as in material changes to the risk exposures and the management strategies of the Partnership. There can be no assurance that the Partnership’s current market exposure and/or risk management strategies will not change materially or that any such strategies will be effective in either the short- or long-term. Investors must be prepared to lose all or substantially all of their investment in the Partnership.
     The following were the primary trading risk exposures of the Partnership as of December 31, 2010, by market sector.
     Indices. The Partnership’s primary equity exposure is to equity price risk in the CME S&P Index.
     Qualitative Disclosures Regarding Means of Managing Risk Exposure
     The General Partner monitors and attempts to control the Partnership’s risk exposure on a daily basis through financial, credit and risk management monitoring systems and accordingly believes that it has effective procedures for evaluating and limiting the credit and market risks to which the Partnership may be subject.
     The General Partner monitors the Partnership’s performance and the concentration of open positions, and consults with the Advisor concerning the Partnership’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. 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 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 Warrington 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 Warrington 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
Warrington Fund L.P.:
We have audited the accompanying statements of financial condition of Warrington Fund L.P. (the “Partnership”), including the condensed schedules of investments, as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the related statements of income and expenses, and changes in partners’ capital for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Partnership’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. The financial statements of the Partnership for the year ended December 31, 2008 were audited by other auditors whose report, dated March 26, 2009, expressed an unqualified opinion on those statements.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Partnership is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, such 2010 and 2009 financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Warrington Fund L.P. as of December 31, 2010 and 2009, and the results of its operations and its changes in partners’ capital for the years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Partners of
Warrington 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 Warrington Fund L.P. (formerly known as Smith Barney Warrington 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.

1.   Partnership Organization:
 
Warrington Fund L.P., (the “Partnership”) is a limited partnership organized on November 28, 2005 under the partnership laws of the State of New York to engage in the speculative trading of commodity interests including futures and options contracts. The Partnership trades the stock indices sector. The Partnership commenced trading on February 21, 2006. The commodity interests that are traded by the Partnership are volatile and involve a high degree of market risk. The Partnership privately and continuously offers up to 500,000 redeemable units of limited partnership interest (“Redeemable Units”) in the Partnership to qualified investors. There is no maximum number of 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 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 (defined below).
 
The General Partner and each limited partner of the Partnership (each, a “Limited Partner”) share in the profits and loss of the Partnership, after the allocation to the Special Limited Partner (defined in Note 3c.), 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 profits, if any, net of distributions.
 
The Partnership will be liquidated upon the first to occur of the following: December 31, 2025; when the net asset value per Redeemable Unit decreases to less than $400 per Redeemable Unit as of the close of business on any business day; a decline in net assets after trading commences to less than $1,000,000; or under certain circumstances as defined in the Limited Partnership Agreement of the Partnership (the “Limited Partnership Agreement”).
 
2.   Accounting Policies:
 
  a.   Use of Estimates.  The preparation of financial statements and accompanying notes in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities in the financial statements and accompanying notes. As a result, actual results could differ from these estimates.
 
  b.   Statement of Cash Flows.  The Partnership is not required to provide a Statement of Cash Flows.
 
  c.   Partnership’s Investments.  All commodity interests (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 options 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 gains or losses from the preceding period are reported in the Statements of Income and Expenses.
 
Partnership’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

29

Warrington Fund L.P.
Notes to Financial Statements

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. 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, the Partnership’s Level 1 assets and liabilities are actively traded.
 
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 under GAAP.
 
The Partnership considers prices for exchange-traded commodity futures and options contracts to be based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (Level 1). The values of forwards, swaps and certain options 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). As of and for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009, the Partnership did not hold any derivative instruments for which market quotations were not readily available and which were priced by broker-dealers that derive fair values for those assets from observable inputs (Level 2) or 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”.

  d.   Options.  The Partnership may purchase and write (sell) both exchange listed and over-the-counter (“OTC”), options on commodities or financial instruments. An option is a contract allowing, but not requiring, its holder to buy (call) or sell (put) a specific or standard commodity or financial instrument at a specified price during a specified time period. The option premium is the total price paid or received for the option contract. When the Partnership writes an option, the premium received is recorded as a liability in the Statements of Financial Condition and marked to market daily. When the Partnership purchases an option, the premium paid is recorded as an asset in the Statements of Financial Condition and marked to market daily. Realized gains (losses) and changes in unrealized gains (losses) on options contracts are included in the Statements of Income and Expenses.
 
  e.   Income Taxes.  Income taxes have not been provided as each partner is individually liable for the taxes, if any, on their share of the Partnership’s income and expenses.
 
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.
 
  f.   Subsequent Events.  Management of the Partnership evaluates events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are filed. Management has assessed the subsequent events through the date of filing and determined that there were no subsequent events requiring adjustment of or disclosure in the financial statements.
 
  g.   Net Income (Loss) per Unit.  Net income (loss) per unit is calculated in accordance with investment company guidance. See Note 6, “Financial Highlights”.

3.   Agreements:
 
  a.   Limited Partnership Agreement:
 
The General Partner administers the business and affairs of the Partnership including selecting one or more advisors to make trading decisions for the Partnership. The Partnership will pay the General Partner a monthly administrative fee in return for its services to the Partnership equal to 1/24 of 1% (1/2 of 1% per year) of month-end Net Assets of the Partnership. Month-end Net Assets, for the purpose of calculating administrative fees are Net Assets, as defined in the Limited Partnership Agreement, prior to the reduction of the current month’s management fee, profit share allocation accrual, the General Partner’s administrative fee and any redemptions or distributions as of the end of such month. This fee may be increased or decreased at the discretion of the General Partner.
 
  b.   Management Agreement:
 
The General Partner, on behalf of the Partnership, has entered into a management agreement (the “Management Agreement”) with Warrington Advisors, LLC (the “Special Limited Partner,” or the “Advisor”), a registered commodity trading advisor. Scott C. Kimple, the sole principal of Warrington, is currently employed by Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC and a selling agent for the Partnership. As compensation for services, the Partnership pays the Advisor a monthly management fee of 1/6 of 1% (2% per year) of month-end Net Assets managed by the Advisor. Month-end Net Assets, for the purpose of calculating management fees are Net Assets, as defined in the Limited Partnership Agreement, prior to the reduction of the current month’s management fee, profit share allocation accrual, the General Partner’s administrative 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 addition, the Advisor is a Special Limited Partner of the Partnership and receives a quarterly profit share allocation to its capital account in the Partnership in the form of units of the Partnership, the value of which shall be equal to 20% of new trading profits, as defined in the Management Agreement, earned by the Advisor on behalf of the Partnership during each calendar quarter and are issued as Special Limited Partner Units. The Advisor will not receive a profit share allocation until the Advisor recovers the net loss incurred and earns additional new trading profits for the Partnership.
 
In allocating substantially all of the assets of the Partnership to the Advisor, the General Partner considered the Advisor’s past performance, trading style, volatility of the markets traded and fee requirements. The General Partner may modify or terminate the allocation of assets to the Advisor at any time.
 
  c.   Customer Agreement:
 
The Partnership has entered into a customer agreement (the “Customer Agreement”) with CGM whereby CGM provides services which include, among other things, the execution of transactions for the Partnership’s account in accordance with orders placed by the Advisor. The Partnership is obligated to pay a monthly brokerage fee to CGM equal to 5/16 of 1% (3.75% 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, management fee, profit share allocation accrual, the General Partner’s administrative fee, other expenses and any redemptions or distributions as of the end of such month. CGM will pay 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. This fee does not include exchange, give-up, user, clearing, floor brokerage and National Futures Association fees (collectively the “clearing fees”) which will be borne by the Partnership. All of the Partnership’s assets 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 $44,588,913 and $92,436,885, respectively. CGM will pay the Partnership interest on 80% of the average daily equity maintained in cash in its account during each month at a 30-day U.S. Treasury Bill rate determined weekly by 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 Agreement may be terminated upon notice by either party.
 
4.   Trading Activities:
 
The Partnership was formed for the purpose of trading contracts in a variety of commodity interests, including derivative financial instruments and derivative commodity instruments. The results of the Partnership’s trading activities are shown in the Statements of Income and Expenses.
 
The Customer Agreement between the Partnership and CGM gives the Partnership the legal right to net 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 option contracts traded for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 based on a monthly calculation were 14,568 and 12,135, respectively. The average number of futures contracts traded for the years ended December 31, 2010 and 2009 based on a monthly calculation were 104 and 46, 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.

5.   Subscriptions, Distributions and Redemptions:
 
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 a month on three business days’ notice to the General Partner. There is no fee charged to Limited Partners in connection with redemptions.

7.   Financial Instrument Risks:
 
In the normal course of business, the Partnership is party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk, including derivative financial instruments and derivative commodity instruments. These financial instruments may include forwards, futures and options, whose values are based upon an underlying asset, index, or reference rate, and generally represent future commitments to exchange currencies or cash 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 OTC. Exchange traded instruments are standardized and include futures and certain option contracts. OTC contracts are negotiated between contracting parties and include certain options. Each of these instruments is subject to various risks similar to those related to the underlying financial instruments, including market and credit risk. In general, the risks associated with OTC contracts are greater than those associated with exchange traded instruments because of the greater risk of default by the counterparty to an OTC contract.
 
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 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 is 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 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 risk of loss is reduced through the use of legally enforceable master netting agreements with counterparties that permit the Partnership to offset unrealized gains and losses and other assets and liabilities with such counterparties upon the occurrence of certain events. The Partnership has credit risk and concentration risk as the sole counterparty or broker with respect to the Partnership’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’s counterparty is an exchange or clearing organization.
 
As both a buyer and seller of options, the Partnership pays or receives a premium at the outset and then bears the risk of unfavorable changes in the price of the contract underlying the option. Written options expose the Partnership to potentially unlimited liability; for purchased options the risk of loss is limited to the premiums paid. Certain written put options permit cash settlement and do not require the option holder to own the reference asset. The Partnership does not consider these contracts to be guarantees.
 
The General Partner monitors and attempts to control the Partnership’s risk exposure on a daily basis through financial, credit and risk management monitoring systems, and accordingly, believes that it has effective procedures for evaluating and limiting the credit and market risks to which the Partnership 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 forwards and options 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 business, these instruments may not be held to maturity.

Item 9.   Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure.
     PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (“PwC”) was previously the principal accountant for the Partnership through July 22, 2009. On July 22, 2009, PwC was dismissed as principal accountant and on July 23, 2009 Deloitte & Touche LLP (“Deloitte”) was engaged as the independent registered public accounting firm. The decision to change accountants was approved by the General Partner of the Partnership.
     In connection with the audit of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2008, and through July 22, 2009, there were no disagreements with PwC on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreements if not resolved to their satisfaction would have caused them to make reference thereto in their report on the financial statements for the corresponding year.
     The audit report of PwC on the financial statements of the Partnership as of and for the years ended December 31, 2008 and 2007, respectively, did not contain any adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion, nor was it qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principle.
Item 9A.   Controls and Procedures.
     The Partnership’s disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Partnership on the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods expected in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Partnership in the reports it files is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer (the “CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (the “CFO”) of the General Partner, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure and appropriate SEC filings.
     Management is responsible for ensuring that there is an adequate and effective process for establishing, maintaining and evaluating disclosure controls and procedures for the Partnership’s external disclosures.
     The General Partner’s CEO and CFO have evaluated the effectiveness of the Partnership’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of December 31, 2010 and, based on that evaluation, the General Partner’s CEO and CFO have concluded that at that date the Partnership’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
     The Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting is a process under the supervision of the General Partner’s CEO and CFO to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP. These controls include policies and procedures that:
    pertain to the maintenance of records that in reasonable detail accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Partnership;
    provide reasonable assurance that (i) transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP, and (ii) the Partnership’s receipts are handled and expenditures are made only pursuant to authorizations of the General Partner; and
    provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Partnership’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
     The report included in “Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data. “includes management’s report on internal control over financial reporting (“Management’s Report”).
     There were no changes in the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended December 31, 2010 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting.
Item 9B.   Other Information. None.
