NOTES TO CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the Three and Six Months Ended June 30, 2011 and 2010
(Unaudited)
_______________

1.             BASIS OF PRESENTATION
 
 
The interim condensed financial statements of Bridgeton Global Directional Fund, LP formerly RFMC Global Directional Fund, LP. (the “Partnership”), included herein, have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and Rule 8-03 of Regulation S-X.  Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete annual financial statements.  These condensed financial statements are unaudited and should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Partnership’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.  The Partnership follows the same accounting policies in the preparation of interim reports as set forth in the annual report.  In the opinion of management, the financial statements reflect all adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, results of operations and changes in partners’ capital for the interim periods presented and are not necessarily indicative of a full year’s results.
 
2.             PARTNERSHIP ORGANIZATION
 
 
The Partnership, a Delaware limited partnership, was organized on March 19, 2007 and commenced trading operations on August 1, 2007.  The Partnership’s business is to trade, buy, sell or otherwise acquire, hold or dispose of commodity futures contracts, options on physical commodities and on commodity futures contracts, forward contracts, and instruments that may be subject of a futures contract, including equities, indices and sectors ("Commodity and Futures Contracts"), and any rights pertaining thereto and to engage in all activities incident thereto.  The Partnership may also invest in entities (including without limitation other partnerships, separate managed accounts, exchange traded funds or other types of funds) that primarily trade in exchange traded securities, options on exchange traded securities, exchange traded funds, and Commodity and Futures Contracts. The objective of the Partnership is the appreciation of its assets through speculative trading.
 
 
From the Partnership’s start until February 1, 2011, Ruvane Fund Management Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Ruvane”, or the "General Partner" for periods prior to March 1, 2011), was the sole general partner of the Partnership.  From that date until March 1, 2010, Bridgeton Fund Management, LLC (“Bridgeton”, or the "General Partner" for periods on or after March 1, 2011) was a co-general partner of the Partnership with Ruvane.  Effective March 1, 2011, Bridgeton is the sole general partner of the Partnership.  Bridgeton has been registered with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“CFTC”) pursuant to the Commodity Exchange Act (“CEA”) as a Commodity Pool Operator (“CPO”) since January 11, 2011 and has been a member of the National Futures Association (“NFA”) since January 11, 2011.
 
 
In accordance with the Agreement, the Partnership offers limited partnership interests through a private offering pursuant to Regulation D as adopted under section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.  The Partnership will offer limited partnership interests up to an aggregate of $100,000,000; provided that the General Partner may increase the amount of interests that will be offered in increments of $10,000,000, after notice to the limited partners.
 
 
The Partnership offers two classes of limited partnership interests; the Institutional Class and the Investor Class. Commission charges, General Partner management fees and incentive allocations to the General Partner will differ between Classes and/or Series, but in all other respects the Institutional Class interests and the Investor Class interests will be identical. The Institutional Class and Investor Class interests will also be traded pursuant to the same trading program and at the same Trading Level (as defined in the Confidential Offering Memorandum).

2.             PARTNERSHIP ORGANIZATION (CONTINUED)
 
 
The General Partner has selected Welton Investment Corporation (the “Advisor”) as the Partnership’s trading advisor.  All of the Partnership’s assets are traded pursuant to the Advisor’s Global Directional Portfolio, which follows a proprietary quantitative trading strategy.  The General Partner, in the future, may allocate the Partnership’s assets to other trading strategies and investment programs.
 
 
The Partnership shall end upon the withdrawal, insolvency or dissolution of the General Partner or a decline of greater than fifty percent of the net assets of the Partnership as defined in the Agreement, or the occurrence of any event which shall make it unlawful for the existence of the Partnership to be continued.
 
3.             SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
 
 
A.
Method of Reporting
 
 
The Partnership’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”).  The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of income (loss) and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from these estimates.
 
 
Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”), referred to as ASC or the Codification, is the single source of U.S. GAAP.
 
 
The Partnership has elected not to provide a statement of cash flows as permitted under ASC Topic 230, Statement of Cash Flows.
 
B.         Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
 
The Partnership has defined cash and cash equivalents as cash and short-term, highly liquid investments with maturities of three months or less when acquired.  Money market mutual funds, which are included in cash equivalents, are classified as Level 1 fair value estimates (unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets) under the fair value hierarchy provisions as described in ASC Topic 820 Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures.  At June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the Partnership had investments in money market mutual funds of $24,254,069 and $21,243,750, respectively.  Interest received on cash deposits and dividends received from money market mutual funds are included in interest income and recognized on an accrual basis.
 
 
C.
Due from Brokers and Forward Currency Dealer
 
 
Due from brokers and forward currency dealer represents deposits required to meet margin requirements and excess funds not required for margin.  Due from brokers and forward currency dealer at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010 consisted of cash on deposit with brokers of $9,956,466 and $18,208,550, respectively and cash on deposit with the forward currency dealer of $4,818,244 and $0, respectively.  The Partnership is subject to credit risk to the extent any broker or forward currency dealer with whom the Partnership conducts business is unable to deliver cash balances or securities, or clear securities transactions on the Partnership’s behalf.  The General Partner monitors the financial condition of the brokers and forward currency dealer with which the Partnership conducts business and believes that the likelihood of loss under the aforementioned circumstances is remote.

3.              SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
 
 
D.
Investments in Commodity Futures and Forward Currency Contracts
 
 
Investments in commodity futures and forward currency contracts are recorded on the trade date and open contracts are recorded in the financial statements at their fair value on the last business day of the reporting period, based on market prices.  The value of commodity futures (exchange-traded) contracts is determined by the various futures exchanges, and reflects the settlement price for each contract as of the close of the last business day of the reporting period.  Accordingly, such contracts are classified as Level 1 fair value estimates under the fair value hierarchy as described within ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures.  The fair value of forward currency (non-exchange traded) contracts is determined based on the interpolation of mid spot rates and forward points, as provided by a leading data provider.  Such valuation technique for forward currency contracts represents both a market approach and an income approach to fair value measurements, and accordingly, forward currency contracts are categorized as level 2 fair value estimates under ASC Topic 820.

 
Gains or losses are realized when contracts are liquidated, on a first-in-first-out basis.  Realized gains are netted with realized losses for financial reporting purposes and shown under the caption “Net realized gains (losses) on closed positions” in the Condensed Statements of Income (Loss) and General Partner Incentive Allocation.
 
As each broker has the individual right of offset, the Partnership presents the aggregate net unrealized gains with such brokers as “Net unrealized gains on open futures positions” and the aggregate net unrealized losses with such brokers as “Net unrealized losses on open futures positions” in the Condensed Statements of Financial Condition.  The net unrealized gains on open positions from one broker are not offset against net unrealized losses on open positions from another broker in the Condensed Statements of Financial Condition.  The unrealized gains or losses on open contracts is the difference between contract trade price and quoted market price.
 
Any change in unrealized gain or loss from the preceding period is reported in the Condensed Statements of Income (Loss) and General Partner Incentive Allocation under the caption “Change in net unrealized gains (losses) on open positions.”

E.
Brokerage Commissions
 
 
Investor Class interests will pay the General Partner a monthly flat-rate brokerage commission of up to approximately 0.583% of the net asset value of such interests as of the beginning of each month (an annual rate of 7.00%).  The General Partner will pay from this amount up to 3% per annum to properly registered selling agents as compensation for their ongoing services to the Partnership.  To the extent the General Partner pays less than 3% to a selling agent with respect to any limited partnership interests sold by such selling agent, the brokerage commission charged with respect to those limited partnership interests will be reduced accordingly.  A separate series of Investor Class interests will be established for differing brokerage commission rates charged.  During the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and June 30, 2010, all Investor Class interests were charged a flat rate brokerage commission equal to an annual rate of 7.00%.
 
 
Institutional Class interests pay the General Partner a monthly flat-rate brokerage commission of 0.333% of the net asset value of such interests as of the beginning of each month (a 4.00% annual rate).
 
 
In addition to any applicable selling agent fees, the General Partner will also pay from its brokerage commission all actual trading commissions incurred by the Partnership, exclusive of give-up charges and service fees assessed by certain brokers.  Such execution costs totaled $153,250 and $322,910 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, and $164,213 and $340,167 for the three and six months ended June 30 2010, respectively.  Approximately 35% to 45% of the actual trading commissions incurred by the Partnership are remitted by the brokers to an Introducing Broker affiliated with Bridgeton.

Net realized and unrealized trading profits and losses, interest income and other operating income and expenses, prior to flat-rate brokerage commissions, management fees and incentive allocations, are allocated to the partners monthly in proportion to their capital account balances, as defined in the Agreement.  Each partner is then charged its applicable Class and/or Series flat-rate brokerage commission, management fees and incentive allocations.

G.
Incentive Allocation
 
 
The General Partner is entitled to a quarterly incentive allocation equal to 20% of New Profits (as defined in the Confidential Offering Memorandum), if any.  The term “New Profits” for the purpose of calculating the General Partner's incentive allocation only, is defined as the excess (if any) of (A) the net asset value of the Partnership as of the last day of any calendar quarter (before deduction of incentive allocations made or accrued for such quarter), over (B) the net asset value of the Partnership as of the last day of the most recent quarter for which an incentive allocation was paid or payable (after deduction of such incentive allocation).  In computing New Profits, the difference between (A) and (B) above shall be (i) increased by the amount of any distributions or redemptions paid or accrued by the Partnership as of or subsequent to the date in (B) through the date in (A), (ii) adjusted (either decreased or increased, as the case may be) to reflect the amount of any additional allocations or negative reallocations of Partnership assets from the date in (B) to the last day of the quarter as of which the current incentive allocation calculation is made, and (iii) increased by the amount of any losses attributable to redemptions.  For the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and June 30, 2010, the General Partner earned no incentive allocations.
 
 
The General Partner will pay three-fourths of any incentive allocation it receives to the Advisor, and the General Partner may distribute a portion of its share of the incentive allocation to properly registered selling agents as compensation for their ongoing services to the Partnership.
 
H.        Management Fees
 
 
Investor Class and Institutional Class – Series 2 interests pay the General Partner a quarterly management fee equal to ¼ of 1% (1% annually) of the net assets of the Partnership (as defined in the Agreement) as of the beginning of each calendar quarter before deducting accrued ordinary legal, accounting and auditing fees and before any incentive allocation to the General Partner.  Institutional Class Series 1 and Series 3 interests are not assessed a management fee by the General Partner.  Management fees earned by the General Partner were as follows:

H.        Management Fees (continued)
 
 
In addition to the management fee paid to the General Partner, the Advisor also assesses each Class and Series of interests a management fee equal to 1/12 of 2% (2% per annum) of the month-end Trading Level for each month during such quarter.  Trading level shall mean the Partnership’s net assets allocated to the Advisor times the leverage to be employed by the Advisor from time to time upon the discretion of the General Partner.  From the start of the Partnership through February 28, 2011, the leverage employed on behalf of the Partnership was 1.2, or 20% higher than the actual funds allocated to the Advisor.  Effective March 1, 2011, the Trading Level was reduced to 1.0.  As such, prior to March 1, 2011, the Advisor’s management fee approximated 2.4% per annum of the Partnership’s net assets.  The management fees earned by the Advisor were as follows:

I.
Income Taxes
 
 
No provision for income taxes has been provided in the accompanying financial statements as each partner is individually liable for taxes, if any, on his or her share of the Partnership’s profits.
 
 
The Partnership applies the provisions of Codification Topics 740, Income Taxes and 835, Interest, which prescribes the minimum recognition threshold a tax position must meet in connection with accounting for uncertainties in income tax positions taken or expected to be taken by an entity before being measured and recognized in the financial statements.  This accounting standard 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” of being 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 an expense in the current period.  The Partnership has elected an accounting policy to classify interest and penalties, if any, as interest expense.  The General Partner has concluded there is no tax expense or interest expense related to uncertainties in income tax positions for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and June 30, 2010.
 
 
The Partnership files U.S. federal and state tax returns.  The 2008 through 2010 tax years generally remain subject to examination by U.S. federal and most state authorities.

J.
Subscriptions
       
 
Partnership units may be purchased on the first day of each month at the net asset value per unit determined on the last business day of the previous month.  Partners’ contributions received in advance for subscriptions are recorded as “prepaid subscriptions” in the Condensed Statements of Financial Condition.
 
 
K.
Redemptions
 
 
Limited partners may redeem some or all of their units at net asset value per unit as of the last business day of each month with at least ten days written notice to the General Partner.
 
 
L.
Foreign Currency Transactions
 
 
The Partnership’s functional currency is the U.S. dollar; however, it transacts business in currencies other than the U.S. dollar.  Assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are translated into U.S. dollars at the rates in effect at the date of the Condensed Statements of Financial Condition. Income and expense items denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are translated into U.S. dollars at the rates in effect during the period.  Realized gains (losses) resulting from the translation to U.S. dollars totaled $6,071 and $(241) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, and $(68,608) and $(38,894) for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, respectively, and are reported as a component of “Net realized gains (losses) on closed positions” in the Condensed Statements of Income (Loss) and General Partner Incentive Allocation.
 
 
M.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
 
In May 2011, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update 2011-04, Fair Value Measurements (“ASU 2011-04”).  ASU 2011-04 amends ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, to clarify certain provisions of Topic 820 but also includes some instances where a particular principle or requirement for measuring fair value or disclosing information about fair value measurements has changed.  This ASU results in common principles and requirements for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value and measurements in accordance with U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards.  The amendments in ASU 2011-04 are to be applied prospectively and will become effective during the interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011.  The Partnership will adopt the methodologies prescribed in ASU 2011-04 by the date required and does not anticipate that this ASU will have material effect on its financial position or results of operations.
 
 
N.
Indemnifications
 
The Partnership has entered into agreements, which provide for the indemnifications against losses, costs, claims and liabilities arising from the performance of their individual obligations under such agreements, except for gross negligence or bad faith.  The Partnership has had no prior claims or payments pursuant to these agreements.  The Partnership’s individual maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Partnership that have not yet occurred. However, based on previous experience, the Partnership expects the risk of loss to be remote.

4.
FAIR VALUE
 
 
Fair value of an investment is the amount that would be received to sell the investment in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (i.e. the exit price).
 
 
The fair value hierarchy, as more fully described in ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, prioritizes and ranks the level of market price observability used in measuring investments at fair value.  Market price observability is impacted by a number of factors, including the type of investment and the characteristics specific to the investment.  Investments with readily available active quoted prices or for which fair value can be measured from actively quoted prices generally will have a higher degree of market price observability and a lesser degree of judgment used in measuring fair value.
 
 
Investments measured and reported at fair value are classified and disclosed in one of the following categories:
 
 
Level 1 – Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical investments as of the reporting date.  The type of investments included in Level 1 are publicly traded investments.  As required by ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, the Partnership does not adjust the quoted price for these investments even in situations where the Partnership holds a large position and a sale could reasonably impact the quoted price.
 
 
Level 2 – Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets, which are either directly or indirectly observable as of the reporting date, and fair value is determined through the use of models or other valuation methodologies.  Investments which are generally included in this category are investments valued using market data.
 
 
Level 3 – Pricing inputs are unobservable and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the investment.  Fair value for these investments are determined using valuation methodologies that consider a range of factors, including but not limited to the price at which the investment was acquired, the nature of the investment, local market conditions, trading values on public exchanges for comparable securities, current and projected operating performance and financing transactions subsequent to the acquisition of the investment.  The inputs into the determination of fair value require significant management judgment.  Due to the inherent uncertainty of these estimates, these values may differ materially from the values that would have been used had a ready market for these investments existed.  Investments that are included in this category generally are privately held debt and equity securities.
 
 
In certain cases, the inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy.  In such cases, an investment's level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.  The General Partner’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, and considers factors specific to the investment.  The Partnership recognizes transfers, if any, between fair value hierarchy levels at the beginning of the reporting period.

5.             DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
 
 
The Partnership engages in the speculative trading of forward currency and futures contracts in currencies, interest rates, stock indices and a wide range of commodities, including energy and metals (collectively, “derivatives”) for the purpose of achieving capital appreciation.  Since the derivatives held or sold by the Partnership are for speculative trading purposes, the derivative instruments are not designated as hedging instruments as defined in ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging.
 
 
Under provisions of ASC Topic 815, Derivatives and Hedging, entities are required to recognize all derivative instruments as either assets or liabilities at fair value in the statement of financial condition.  Investments in futures contracts are reported in the Condensed Statements of Financial Condition as either “Net unrealized gains on open futures positions” or “Net unrealized losses on open futures positions”, while investments in forward currency contracts are reported as either “Net unrealized gains on open forward currency contracts” or “Net unrealized losses on open forward currency contracts.”
 
 
The fair value of the Partnership’s derivative contracts is presented below on a gross basis as an asset if in a gain position and a liability if in a loss position.

______________

5.              DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS (CONTINUED)
 
A.       Market Risk
 
 
Derivative financial instruments involve varying degrees of off-balance sheet market risk whereby changes in the level of volatility of interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates or market values of the underlying financial instruments or commodities may result in cash settlements in excess of the amounts recognized in the Condensed Statements of Financial Condition.  The Partnership’s exposure to market risk is directly influenced by a number of factors, including the volatility of the markets in which the financial instruments are traded and the liquidity of those markets.
 
B.        Fair Value
 
 
The derivative instruments used in the Partnership’s trading activities are reported at fair value with the resulting unrealized gains (losses) recorded in the Condensed Statements of Financial Condition and the related trading profits (losses) reflected in “Trading (Losses)” in the Condensed Statements of Income (Loss) and General Partner Incentive Allocation.  Open contracts generally mature within 90 days; as of June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, the latest maturity dates for open contracts are June 2013 and December 2011, respectively.
 
C.        Credit Risk
 
 
Futures are contracts for delayed delivery of financial interests in which the seller agrees to make delivery at a specified future date of a specified financial instrument at a specified price or yield.  Risk arises from changes in the fair value of the underlying instruments.  Credit risk due to counterparty nonperformance associated with these instruments is reflected in the net unrealized gain on open positions, if any, included in the Condensed Statements of Financial Condition.  The Partnership’s counterparties are major brokerage firms and banks located in the United States, or their foreign affiliates.
 
 
The risks associated with exchange-traded contracts are typically perceived to be less than those associated with over-the-counter transactions, because exchanges typically (but not universally) provide clearing house arrangements in which the collective credit (in some cases limited in amount, in some cases not) of the members of the exchange is pledged to support the financial integrity of the exchange, whereas in over-the-counter transactions, traders must rely solely on the credit of their respective individual counterparties.  Margins, which may be subject to loss in the event of a default, are generally required in exchange trading, and counterparties may require margin in the over-the-counter markets.
 
D.  
Risk Monitoring
 
Due to the speculative nature of the Partnership’s derivatives trading, the Partnership is subject to the risk of substantial losses from derivatives trading.  The General Partner actively assesses, manages, and monitors risk exposure on derivatives on a contract basis, a market sector basis, and on an overall basis in accordance with established risk parameters.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
 
Bridgeton Global Directional Fund, LP, formerly RFMC Global Direction Fund, LP, (the “Partnership”) is a limited partnership organized under the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act.  The Partnership’s business is to trade, buy, sell or otherwise acquire, hold or dispose of commodity futures contracts, options on physical commodities and on commodity futures contracts, forward contracts, and instruments that may be subject of a futures contract, including equities, indices and sectors ("Commodity and Futures Contracts"), and any rights pertaining thereto and to engage in all activities incident thereto.  The Partnership may also invest in entities (including without limitation other partnerships, separate managed accounts, exchange traded funds or other types of funds) that primarily trade in exchange traded securities, options on exchange traded securities, exchange traded funds, and Commodity and Futures Contracts. The objective of the Partnership is the appreciation of its assets through speculative trading.

From the Partnership’s start until February 1, 2011, Ruvane Fund Management Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Ruvane”, or the "General Partner" for periods prior to March 1, 2011), was the sole general partner of the Partnership.  From that date until March 1, 2010, Bridgeton Fund Management, LLC (“Bridgeton”, or the "General Partner" for periods on or after March 1, 2011) was a co-general partner of the Partnership with Ruvane.  Effective March 1, 2011, Bridgeton is the sole general partner of the Partnership. Welton Investment Corporation (“WIC” or the “Advisor”) is the Partnership’s trading advisor.
 
The success of the Partnership is dependent upon the ability of the Advisor to generate trading profits through the speculative trading of Commodity and Futures Contracts sufficient to produce capital appreciation after payment of all fees and expenses. Future results will depend in large part upon the Commodity and Futures Contracts markets in general, the performance of the Advisor, the amount of additions and redemptions and changes in interest rates. Although extensive leverage is available in futures markets, the General Partner will monitor WIC’s trading so that leverage remains within levels acceptable to the General Partner, in its sole discretion. From the start of the Partnership through February 28, 2011, the leverage employed on behalf of the Partnership was 1.2, or 20% higher than the actual funds allocated to the Advisor.  Effective March 1, 2011, the Trading Level was reduced to 1.0.  In general, margin commitments for the Partnership will range between 15% and 20% of capital.  Margin commitments represent that portion of the capital of the Partnership which is committed as margin for futures contracts. Margins are good faith deposits which must be made with a commodity broker in order to initiate or maintain an open position in a futures contract.  Because of the nature of these factors and their interaction, past performance is not indicative of future results.  As a result, any recent increases in net realized or unrealized gains may have no bearing on any results that may be obtained in the future.
 
The Partnership incurs substantial charges from the payment of brokerage commissions to the General Partner, payment of management fees to the Advisor, payment of management fees and incentive allocations to the General Partner and administrative expenses.  The Partnership is required to make trading profits to avoid depleting and exhausting its assets from the payment of such fees, allocations and expenses.
 
The markets in which the Commodity and Futures Contracts trade are constantly changing in character and in degree of volatility.  All of the Partnership’s assets currently are allocated to WIC’s Global Directional Portfolio, which is a proprietary quantitative trading strategy, and will be traded at a leverage ratio of 1.0.  The General Partner, in the future, may allocate the Partnership’s assets to other trading strategies and investment programs.
 
The Partnership pays to the General Partner a flat-rate monthly brokerage commission of up to approximately 0.583% of the net asset value of the limited partnership interests of the Partnership as of the beginning of each month (a 7.00% annual rate) for the Investor Class. The General Partner will pay from this amount up to 3% to properly registered selling agents as compensation for their ongoing services to the Partnership. Institutional Class interests will pay the General Partner a monthly flat-rate brokerage commission of 0.333% of the net asset value of such interests as of the beginning of each month (a 4.00% annual rate). In addition to payments to properly registered selling agents, the General Partner pays from this amount all commission charges and fees with respect to the Partner’s trading in Commodity and Futures Contracts. The flat-rate monthly commission is common among programs such as the Partnership.

Summary of Critical Accounting Policies
 
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) requires management to adopt accounting policies and make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the Partnership’s financial statements. The critical accounting estimates and related judgments underlying the Partnership’s financial statements are summarized below. In applying these policies, management makes judgments that frequently require estimates about matters that are inherently uncertain. The Partnership’s significant accounting policies are described in detail in Note 3 of the Notes to the Condensed Financial Statements.
 
Investments in commodity futures, options and forward contracts are recorded on the trade date and open contracts are recorded in the financial statements at their fair value on the last business day of the reporting period. The difference between the original cost basis of the contract and fair value is recorded in income as a net unrealized gain or loss on open positions in the Condensed Statements of Financial Condition. Realized gains and losses on closed contracts are recorded on a first-in-first-out basis. Interest income is recognized on an accrual basis. All Commodity and Futures Contracts and financial instruments are recorded at fair value in the financial statements. Fair value is based on quoted market prices or estimates of fair value.
 
The Partnership records all investments at fair value in its financial statements, with changes in fair value reported as a component of Trading Profits (Losses) in the Condensed Statements of Income (Loss) and General Partner Incentive Allocation. Generally, fair values are based on quoted market prices; however, in certain circumstances, significant judgments and estimates are involved in determining fair value in the absence of an active market closing price.
 
Results of Operations
 
Comparison of the Three Months Ended June 30, 2011 and 2010
 
For the quarter ended June 30, 2011, the Partnership had total net trading losses comprised of $(1,317,760) in net realized losses on closed positions, $(2,379,633) in change in net unrealized losses on open positions and interest income of $0. For the same quarter in 2010, the Partnership had total net trading gains comprised of $506,234 in net realized gains on closed positions, and $480,081 in change in net unrealized gains on open positions and interest income of $8,397.
 
In April 2011, the Partnership had a net gain of $1,007,249. The Partnership had profitable positions in gold, RBOB Gasoline, Euro currency and corn; the Partnership had offsetting losses in live cattle, Swiss Franc, and cotton.  In May 2011, the Partnership had a net loss of $(5,007,002). The Partnership's positions in US and Japanese interest rate instruments provided gains; the Partnership experienced losses in energy, aluminum and coffee.  In June 2011, the Partnership had a net loss of $(893,512).  The Partnership saw gains in wheat, Japanese bonds, and crude oil; the Partnership experienced losses in corn, heating oil, gold and live cattle.
 
In April 2010, the Partnership had a net gain of $2,089,791. The Partnership’s positions in crude oil, gold, Euro Bund, and the Japanese Long Bond were profitable.  The Partnership’s positions in US 10-year Notes, EUR/JPY and copper produced losses.  In May 2010, the Partnership had a net loss of $(2,641,348). The Partnership’s positions in the Australian Dollar, Norwegian Krone, the New Zealand Dollar, and the Japanese Yen were unprofitable; positions in US and Japanese stock indices also had losses.  The Partnership’s positions in EUR/JPY, US and European fixed income markets and EUR/USD produced some gains.  In June 2010, the Partnership had a net gain of $450,752.  The Partnership’s positions in US and Japanese fixed income markets, coffee and gold were profitable.  The Partnership’s positions in energy complex, European stock indices and corn were unprofitable.
 
For the quarter ended June 30, 2011, the Partnership had expenses comprised of $788,403 in brokerage commissions (including clearing and exchange fees), $337,540 in management fees, $14,036 in professional fees, and $55,893 in accounting, administrative fees and other expenses. For the same quarter in 2010, the Partnership had expenses comprised of $687,417 in brokerage commissions (including clearing and exchange fees), $342,270 in management fees, $19,986 in professional fees, and $45,844 in accounting, administrative fees and other expenses.  Brokerage commissions and management fees vary primarily as a result of change in assets under management, which are affected by net income, and capital subscriptions and redemptions. Accounting and administrative expenses consist primarily of professional fees and other expenses relating to the Partnership’s reporting requirements under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.
 
 
25

 
 
As a result of above, the Partnership recorded net loss after General Partner incentive allocation of $(4,893,265) for the quarter compared to net loss after General Partner incentive allocation of $(100,805) for the same quarter in 2010.
 
At June 30, 2011, the net asset value of the Partnership was $41,943,293, compared to its net asset value of $44,087,080 at December 31, 2010.
 
During the quarter, the Partnership had no credit exposure to counterparties that are participants of foreign commodities exchanges which is considered to be material.  In the case of forward contracts, which are traded on the interbank market rather than on exchanges, the counterparty is generally a single financial institution, rather than a group of financial institutions; thus, there may be a greater counterparty credit risk.  The Advisor trades for the Partnership only with those counterparties which it believes to be creditworthy.

For the six months ended June 30, 2011, the Partnership had total net trading losses comprised of $1,901,129 in net realized gains on closed positions, $(4,030,100) in change in net unrealized gains (losses) on open positions and interest income of $7,014.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
 
In general, the Advisor trades only those Commodity and Futures Contracts that have sufficient liquidity to enable it to enter and close out positions without causing major price movements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, most United States commodity exchanges limit the amount by which certain commodities may move during a single day by regulations referred to as “daily price fluctuation limits” or “daily limits.” Pursuant to such regulations, no trades may be executed on any given day at prices beyond daily limits the price of a futures contract occasionally has exceeded the daily limit for several consecutive days, with little or no trading, thereby effectively preventing a party from liquidating its position. While the occurrence of such an event may reduce or eliminate the liquidity of a particular market, it will not eliminate losses and may, in fact, substantially increase losses because of the inability to liquidate unfavorable positions. In addition, if there is little or no trading in a particular futures or forward contract that the Partnership is trading, whether such liquidity is caused by any of the above reasons or otherwise, the Partnership may be unable to liquidate its position prior to its expiration date, of thereby requiring the Partnership to make or take delivery of the underlying interests of the commodity interests.
 
The Partnership’s capital resources are dependent upon three factors: (a) the income or losses generated by the Advisor; (b) the capital invested or redeemed by the limited partners; and (c) the capital invested or redeemed by the General Partner. The Partnership sells limited partnership units to investors from time to time in private placements pursuant to Regulation D of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. As of the last day of any month, a limited partner may redeem all of its limited partnership units on 10 days’ prior written notice to the General Partner.

The General Partner is required to contribute $1,000 to the Partnership. All capital contributions by the General Partner necessary to maintain such capital account balance are evidenced by units of general partnership interest, each of which has an initial value equal to the net asset value per unit at the time of such contribution. The General Partner may withdraw any excess above its required capital contribution without notice to the limited partners and may also contribute any greater amount to the Partnership.
 
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
 
 
Not required.
 
 
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
 
 
The President of the General Partner (who serves as the principal executive officer and financial officer of the Partnership) evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Partnership’s disclosure controls and procedures, which are designed to ensure that the Partnership records, processes, summarizes and reports in a timely and effective manner the information required to be disclosed in the reports filed with or submitted to the Securities and Exchange Commission. Based upon this evaluation, the General Partner concluded that, as of June 30, 2011 the Partnership’s disclosure controls are effective and ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 are accumulated and communicated to management of the General Partner (which consists of the principal of the General Partner) to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. During the second quarter of 2011, there were no changes in the Partnership’s internal controls over financial reporting or in other factors that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially effect, the partnership's internal control over financial reporting.
 
 
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds
 
 
There currently is no established public trading market for the Limited Partnership Units. As of June 30, 2011, 39,636.3254 Partnership Units were held by 548 Limited Partners and the General Partner. All of the Limited Partnership Units are “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and may not be sold unless registered under the Securities Act or sold in accordance with an exemption therefrom, such as Rule 144. The Partnership has no plans to register any of the Limited Partnership Units for resale. In addition, the Partnership Agreement contains certain restrictions on the transfer of Limited Partnership Units. Pursuant to the Partnership Agreement, the General Partner has the sole discretion to determine whether distributions (other than on redemption of Limited Partnership Units), if any, will be made to partners. The Partnership has never paid any distributions and does not anticipate paying any distributions to partners in the foreseeable future. From January 1, 2011 through June 30, 2011, a total of 3,600.8957 Partnership Units were subscribed for the aggregate subscription amount of $4,265,817. The monthly subscriptions of these Partnership Units are as follows:
