PART I

Item 1. Business.

(a) General Development of Business. AAA Capital Energy Fund L.P. (the “Partnership”) is a limited partnership organized on January 5, 1998 under the partnership laws of the State of New York to engage, directly or indirectly, in the speculative trading of a diversified portfolio of commodity interests generally including commodity options and commodity futures contracts on U.S. exchanges and certain foreign exchanges. The Partnership, through its investment in the Master (defined herein), trade commodity futures and options contracts of any kind. In addition, the Partnership, through its investment in the Master, may engage in swap contracts on energy-related products. The commodity interests that are traded by the Partnership, through its investment in the Master, are volatile and involve a high degree of market risk.

During the initial offering period (February 12, 1998 through March 15, 1998) the Partnership sold 49,538 redeemable units of limited partnership interest (“Redeemable Units”). The Partnership commenced trading on March 16, 1998. No securities which represent an equity interest or any other interest in the Partnership trade on any public market. The Partnership no longer offers Redeemable Units for sale. During 2008, the Special Limited Partner (defined herein) donated Redeemable Units to the Limited Partners. Redemptions of Redeemable Units and General Partner contributions and redemptions for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010 are reported in the Statements of Changes in Partners’ Capital on page 36 under “Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.”

Ceres Managed Futures LLC (“CMF”), 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 Inc. indirectly owns a minority equity interest in MSSB Holdings. Citigroup Inc. also indirectly owns Citigroup Global Markets Inc. (“CGM”), the commodity broker for the Partnership. 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 Inc. As of December 31, 2012, all trading decisions for the Partnership are made by the Advisor (defined below).

On September 1, 2001, the Partnership allocated substantially all of its capital to the AAA Master Fund LLC, a New York limited liability company (“the Master”). The Partnership purchased 128,539.1485 units of the Master with a fair value of $128,539,149 (including unrealized appreciation of $7,323,329). The Master was formed in order to permit commodity pools managed now or in the future by AAA Capital Management Advisors, Ltd. (the “Advisor”) using the Energy Program — Futures and Swaps, the Advisor’s proprietary, discretionary trading program, to invest together in one trading vehicle. A description of the trading activities and focus of the Advisor is included on page 24 under “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” In addition, the Advisor is a special limited partner (the “Special Limited Partner”) of the Partnership. Individual and pooled accounts currently managed by the Advisor, including the Partnership, are permitted to be non-managing members of the Master. The General Partner and the Advisor believe that trading through this master/feeder structure promotes efficiency and economy in the trading process. Expenses to investors as a result of the investment in the Master are approximately the same and redemption rights are not affected. The Master’s commodity broker is CGM and its managing member (“Managing Member”) is CMF. The Master may trade commodity futures and options contracts of any kind, but trades solely energy, energy-related products, grains, indices, lumber and softs. In addition, the Master may enter into swap contracts. The commodity interests that are traded by the Master are volatile and involve a high degree of market risk.

For the period January 1, 2012 through December 31, 2012, the approximate average market sector allocation for the Partnership was 95.4% energy, 1.1% grains, 1.4% indices and 2.1% softs.

As of December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Partnership owned approximately 17.3% and 19.9%, respectively of the Master. It is the Partnership’s intention to continue to invest substantially all of its assets in the Master. The performance of the Partnership is directly affected by the performance of the Master.

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

The General Partner has agreed to make capital contributions, if necessary, so that its general partnership interest will be equal to the greater of (i) 1% of the partner’s contributions to the Partnership or (ii) $25,000. The Partnership will be liquidated upon the first to occur of the following: December 31, 2018; the net asset value per Redeemable Unit decreases to less than $400 per Reedemable Unit as of the close of any business day; or under certain other circumstances as defined in the limited partnership agreement of the Partnership (the “Limited Partnership Agreement”).

Under the Limited Partnership Agreement, the General Partner has sole responsibility for the administration of the business and affairs of the Partnership, but may delegate trading discretion to one or more trading advisors.

The General Partner has entered into a management agreement (the “Management Agreement”) with the Advisor who will make all commodity trading decisions for the Partnership. The Advisor is not responsible for the organization or operation of the Partnership. The Management Agreement continues in effect until June 30 of each year and is renewable by the General Partner for additional one-year periods upon 30 days’ prior notice to the Advisor.

The Partnership is obligated to pay the Advisor a monthly management fee equal to 1/6 of 1% (2% per year) of month-end Net Assets allocated to 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 profit share allocation accrual, the monthly management fee and any redemption 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 on behalf of the Partnership during each calendar quarter and issued as Special Limited Partner Units.

The Partnership entered into a customer agreement (the “Customer Agreement”) which provides that the Partnership pay CGM brokerage commissions at $18 per round turn for futures, $5 per round turn for swap transactions and $9 per side for options. The brokerage commissions were inclusive of applicable floor brokerage fees. All exchange, clearing, service, user, give-up, and National Futures Association (“NFA”) fees, (collectively, the “clearing fees”) are borne by the Master and allocated to the Partnership through its investment in the Master. The Partnership pays CGM brokerage commissions at the above rates based on its proportional share of the Master’s trades. The brokerage commissions may be increased or decreased at any time at CGM’s discretion upon written notice to the Partnership. CGM will pay a portion of its brokerage commissions to other properly registered selling agents and to financial advisors who have sold Redeemable Units. Prior to September 1, 2012, the General Partner paid (out of its own funds) a service fee to CGM. Effective September 1, 2012, the Partnership, through its investment in the Master, will pay CGM a service fee equal to $1 per round-turn for futures transactions, an equivalent amount for swaps and $0.50 per side for options transactions. The Partnership’s assets not held in the Master’s account at CGM are held in the Partnership’s account at CGM. The Partnership’s assets are deposited by CGM in segregated bank accounts to the extent required by Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“CFTC”) regulations. Cash margin requirements are maintained by the Master. CGM will pay the Partnership interest on its allocable share of 80% of the average daily equity maintained in cash in the Master’s 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 between the Partnership and CGM gives the Partnership the legal right to net unrealized gains and losses on open futures and forwards contracts. 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, 2012, 2011, 2010, 2009 and 2008 are set forth under “Item 6. Selected Financial Data.” The Partnership’s Capital as of December 31, 2012, was $142,490,049.

See Paragraphs (a) and (b) above.

(i) through (xii) — Not applicable.

(xiii) — The Partnership has no employees.

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

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

(f) Reports to Security Holders. Not applicable.

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

(h) Smaller Reporting Companies. Not applicable.

Item 1A Risk Factors.

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

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

An investor may lose all of its investment.

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

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

Regardless of its trading performance, the Partnership will incur fees and expenses, including brokerage commissions and management fees.

An investor’s ability to redeem or transfer units is limited.

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

Conflicts of interest exist.

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

The General Partner and the Partnership’s/Master’s commodity broker are affiliates;

The Advisor, the Partnership’s/Master’s commodity broker and their respective principals and affiliates may trade in commodity interests for their own accounts; and

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.

One of the Partnership’s objectives is to add an element of diversification to a traditional stock and bond portfolio, but any benefit of portfolio diversification is dependent upon the Partnership achieving positive returns and such returns being independent of 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, CFTC and the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) have promulgated rules to regulate swaps dealers and to mandate additional reporting and disclosure requirements and continue to promulgate rules regarding capital and margin requirements, to require that swaps be traded on an exchange or swap execution facilities, to mandate additional reporting and disclosure requirements and to require that derivatives (such as those traded by the Partnership) be moved into central clearinghouses. These rules 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/or U.S. exchanges have established speculative position limits on the maximum net long or net short positions which any person or group of persons may hold or control in particular futures, options on futures and swaps that perform a significant price discovery function. Most exchanges also limit the amount of fluctuation in commodity futures contract prices on a single day. The Advisor believes that established speculative position and trading limits will not materially adversely affect trading for the Partnership. The trading instructions of an advisor, however, 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.

In October 2011, the CFTC adopted new rules governing position limits. In September 2012, these rules were vacated by the United States District Court for the District of Columbia and remanded to the CFTC for further consideration. It is possible, nevertheless, that these rules may take effect in some form via re-promulgation or a successful appeal by the CFTC of the District Court’s ruling. The vacated rules established position limits on certain futures contracts and any economically equivalent futures, options and swaps.

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.

Citigroup Inc., the ultimate parent company to CGM, files annual reports and quarterly reports with the SEC. These reports disclose information about various matters in which Citigroup Inc. and CGM may be parties, including information about any litigation or regulatory investigations. Such annual reports and quarterly reports are available on the website of the SEC (http://www.sec.gov/). Actions with respect to CGM’s futures commission merchant business are publicly available on the website of NFA (http://www.nfa.futures.org/).

There have been no material administrative, civil or criminal actions within the past five years against CGM (formerly known as Salomon Smith Barney) or any of its individual principals and no such actions are currently pending, except as follows.

Enron Corp.

Beginning in 2002, Citigroup, CGM and certain executive officers and current and former employees (along with, in many cases, other investment banks and certain Enron officers and directors, lawyers and/or accountants) were named as defendants in a series of individual and alleged class action lawsuits related to Enron.

On August 27, 2007, the District Court for the Southern District of New York in IN RE ENRON CORP. reversed the rulings of the federal bankruptcy court that certain bankruptcy claims held by Citigroup transferees could be equitably subordinated or disallowed solely because of the alleged misconduct of Citigroup, and remanded for further proceedings.

On April 4, 2008, Citigroup announced an agreement to settle actions filed by Enron in its Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings seeking to recover payments to Citigroup as alleged preferences or fraudulent conveyances, to disallow or equitably subordinate claims of Citigroup and Citigroup transferees on the basis of alleged fraud, and to recover damages from Citigroup for allegedly aiding and abetting breaches of fiduciary duty. Under the terms of the settlement, approved by the Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York on April 24, 2008, Citigroup made a pretax payment of $1.66 billion to Enron, and waived certain claims against Enron’s estate. Enron also allowed specified Citigroup-related claims in the bankruptcy proceeding, including all of the bankruptcy claims of parties holding approximately $2.4 billion of Enron credit-linked notes (“CLNs”), and released all claims against Citigroup. Citigroup separately agreed to settle an action brought by certain trusts that issued the CLNs in question, by the related indenture trustee and by certain holders of those securities. The amounts paid to settle these actions were covered by existing Citigroup litigation reserves.

On February 14, 2008, Citigroup agreed to settle CONNECTICUT RESOURCES RECOVERY AUTHORITY v. LAY, ET AL., an action brought by the Attorney General of Connecticut in connection with an Enron-related transaction; subsequently, the District Court dismissed the case on March 5, 2008. The amount paid to settle this action was covered by existing Citigroup litigation reserves.

Over the first two quarters of 2008, Citigroup agreed to settle the following cases, brought by clients of a single law firm in connection with the purchase and holding of Enron securities, and naming Citigroup as a third-party defendant: (1) AHLICH v. ARTHUR ANDERSEN, L.L.P.; (2) DELGADO v. FASTOW; (3) PEARSON v. FASTOW; (4) ROSEN v. FASTOW; (5) BULLOCK v. ARTHUR ANDERSEN, L.L.P.; (6) CHOUCROUN v. ARTHUR ANDERSEN, L.L.P.; (7) GUY v. ARTHUR ANDERSEN, L.L.P. (8) ADAMS v. ARTHUR ANDERSEN, L.L.P.; (9) JOSE v. ARTHUR ANDERSEN, L.L.P.; and (10) ODAM, ET AL., v. ENRON CORP., ET AL. The amount paid to settle these actions was covered by existing Citigroup litigation reserves.

On May 23, 2008, Citigroup agreed to settle SILVERCREEK MANAGEMENT INC., ET AL. v. SALOMON SMITH BARNEY, INC. ET AL., and SILVERCREEK MANAGEMENT INC., ET AL. v. CITIGROUP INC., ET AL., two actions brought by investors in Enron debt securities. The amount paid to settle this action was covered by existing Citigroup litigation reserves. On May 30, 2008, the Southern District of Texas approved Citigroup’s settlement of WESTPAC BANKING CORP. v. CITIBANK, N.A., an action arising out of an Enron-related credit derivative transaction between Citibank and the plaintiff. The amount paid to settle this action was covered by existing Citigroup litigation reserves. On July 9, 2008, Citigroup agreed to settle PUBLIC UTILITY DISTRICT NO. 1 OF SNOHOMISH COUNTY, WASHINGTON v. CITIGROUP, ET AL., an action brought by a utility in connection with alleged electricity overcharges by Enron. The amount paid to settle this action was covered by existing Citigroup litigation reserves.

A number of other individual actions have been settled, including, on January 21, 2009, the parties settled VANGUARD BALANCED INDEX FUND, ET AL. v. CITIGROUP, ET AL., an action filed in 2003 in Pennsylvania state court by certain investment funds, and asserting claims under state securities and common law, arising out of plaintiffs’ purchase of certain Enron-related securities. The case had been coordinated with NEWBY, ET AL. v. ENRON CORP., ET AL., which was settled in 2006, until it was remanded to the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania in June 2008. Pursuant to the settlement, the case was voluntarily dismissed on February 4, 2009.

On May 14, 2009, a settlement agreement was executed among the parties in D K ACQUISITION PARTNERS, L.P., ET AL. v. J.P. MORGAN CHASE & CO., ET AL. and AVENUE CAPITAL MANAGEMENT II, L.P., ET AL. v. J.P. MORGAN CHASE & CO., ET AL. On June 3, 2009, a settlement agreement was executed among the parties in UNICREDITO ITALIANO, SpA, ET AL. v. J.P. MORGAN CHASE BANK, ET AL. The three actions, which were consolidated and pending trial in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, were brought against Citigroup and certain of its affiliates, and JPMorgan Chase and certain of its affiliates, in their capacity as co-agents on certain Enron revolving credit facilities. Pursuant to the settlements, the cases were dismissed with prejudice.

WorldCom, Inc.

Beginning in 2002, Citigroup, CGM and certain executive officers and current and former employees were named as defendants—along with twenty-two other investment banks, certain current and former WorldCom officers and directors, and WorldCom’s former auditors—in a consolidated class action (IN RE WORLDCOM, INC. SECURITIES LITIGATION) brought on behalf of individuals and entities who purchased or acquired publicly traded securities of WorldCom between April 29, 1999 and June 25, 2002. The class settlement became final in March 2006.

Following the resolution of all other individual actions by settlements and other resolutions, one individual action remains pending on appeal in the Second Circuit, HOLMES, et al. v. GRUBMAN, et al., which was brought by an individual and entities who opted out of the WorldCom securities class action settlement. On October 13, 2006, this action was dismissed with prejudice by the District Court for the Southern District of New York. On June 3, 2009, the Second Circuit certified certain state law questions to be resolved by the Georgia Supreme Court, which has issued an opinion answering those questions. The Second Circuit has not yet decided the appeal. On June 23, 2010, the Second Circuit affirmed the dismissal of the remaining claims in HOLMES v. GRUBMAN. Petitioners-plaintiffs submitted a petition for certiorari to the United States Supreme Court seeking review of the decision of the Second Circuit, affirming dismissal of the action.

Research

Customer Class Actions

In March 2004, an alleged research-related customer class action alleging various state law claims on behalf of Smith Barney customers arising out of the issuance of allegedly misleading research analyst reports, DISHER v. CITIGROUP GLOBAL MARKETS INC., was filed in Illinois state court. Citigroup removed this action to federal court, and in August 2005 the United States Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit reversed the District Court’s August 2004 order remanding the case to state court, and directed the District Court to dismiss plaintiffs’ claims as preempted. On June 26, 2006, the United States Supreme Court granted plaintiffs’ petition for a writ of certiorari, vacated the Seventh Circuit’s opinion and remanded the case to the Seventh Circuit for further proceedings in light of the Supreme Court’s decision in Kircher v. Putnam Funds Trust. On January 22, 2007, the Seventh Circuit dismissed Citigroup’s appeal from the District Court’s removal order for lack of appellate jurisdiction. On February 1, 2007, plaintiffs secured an order reopening this case in Illinois state court, and on February 16, Citigroup removed the reopened action to federal court. On March 2, 2007, the District Court vacated its 2005 order dismissing the case and remanded the action to Illinois state court. On May 3, 2007, the District Court remanded the action to Illinois state court, and on June 13, 2007, Citigroup moved in state court to dismiss the action. On October 13, 2011, the court entered an order dismissing with prejudice all class action claims asserted in DISHER v. CITIGROUP GLOBAL MARKETS INC., holding that the claims were precluded under the Securities Litigation Uniform Standards Act of 1998. The court granted leave for lead plaintiff to file an amended complaint asserting only his individual state-law claims within 21 days. An amended complaint was not filed within the 21-day period. The alleged representative plaintiff has filed a notice of appeal from the court’s October 13, 2011 order. On February 3, 2012, the Illinois Appellate Court dismissed plaintiff’s appeal in DISHER v. CITIGROUP GLOBAL MARKETS INC. for lack of a final, appealable judgment, and the Circuit Court entered a final judgment dismissing the action on February 14, 2012. No appeal from that judgment has been filed.

Global Crossing, Ltd.

On or about January 28, 2003, lead plaintiff in a consolidated alleged class action in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (IN RE GLOBAL CROSSING, LTD. SECURITIES LITIGATION) filed a consolidated complaint on behalf of purchasers of the securities of Global Crossing and its subsidiaries, which named as defendants, among others, Citigroup, CGM and certain executive officers and current and former employees, asserting claims under the federal

securities laws for allegedly issuing research reports without a reasonable basis in fact and for allegedly failing to disclose conflicts of interest with Global Crossing in connection with published investment research. On March 22, 2004, lead plaintiff amended its consolidated complaint to add claims on behalf of purchasers of the securities of Asia Global Crossing. The added claims asserted causes of action under the federal securities laws and common law in connection with CGM’s research reports about Global Crossing and Asia Global Crossing and for CGM’s roles as an investment banker for Global Crossing and as an underwriter in the Global Crossing and Asia Global Crossing offerings. The Citigroup-Related Defendants moved to dismiss all of the claims against them on July 2, 2004. The plaintiffs and the Citigroup-Related Defendants entered into a settlement agreement that was preliminarily approved by the Court on March 8, 2005, and was finally approved on June 30, 2005. The amount to be paid in settlement is covered by existing litigation reserves.

In addition, on or about January 27, 2004, the Global Crossing Estate Representative filed in the United States Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York an adversary proceeding against Citigroup and several other financial institutions seeking to rescind the payment of a $1 billion loan made to a subsidiary of Global Crossing. The Citigroup-Related Defendants moved to dismiss the latter action on May 28, 2004, which motion remains pending. In addition, actions asserting claims against Citigroup and certain of its affiliates relating to CGM Global Crossing research reports are pending in numerous arbitrations around the country. On August 20, 2008, Plaintiff filed an amended complaint that narrowed the pending claims. Citigroup has yet to respond to the amended complaint.

Telecommunications Research Class Actions

Beginning in May 2002, Citigroup, CGM and certain executive officers and current and former employees were named as defendants in a series of alleged class action lawsuits and arbitration demands by purchasers of various securities, alleging violations of the federal securities laws, including Sections 10 and 20 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 for allegedly issuing research reports without a reasonable basis in fact and for allegedly failing to disclose conflicts of interest with companies in connection with published investment research. The Citigroup research analyst reports concerned seven issuers: AT&T Corp. (“AT&T”), Winstar Communications, Inc. (“Winstar”), Level 3 Communications, Inc. (“Level 3”), Metromedia Fiber Network, Inc. (“MFN”), XO Communications, Inc. (“XO”), Williams Communications Group Inc. (“Williams”), and Focal Communications, Inc. (“Focal”). These alleged class actions were assigned to a single judge in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York for coordinated proceedings. The court consolidated these actions into seven separate proceedings corresponding to the seven issuers of securities involved.

On January 6, 2005, the District Court granted in part and denied in part Citigroup’s motion to dismiss the claims against it in the MFN action, In re SALOMON ANALYST METROMEDIA LITIGATION. On June 20, 2006, the District Court certified the plaintiff class in the M FN action. The District Court’s class certification decision is on appeal in the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, and oral argument was held in January 2008. On September 30, 2008, the District Court’s class certification decision was vacated on appeal by the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit. On October 1, 2008, the parties reached a settlement pursuant to which Citigroup will pay $35 million to members of the settlement class that purchased or otherwise acquired MFN securities during the class period; the settlement was preliminarily approved by the District Court on November 19, 2008. On February 27, 2009, the District Court approved the class action settlement, and entered a final judgment dismissing the action with prejudice.

Credit-Crisis-Related Litigation and Other Matters

Citigroup and certain of its subsidiaries have been named as defendants in numerous legal actions and other proceedings asserting claims for damages and related relief for losses arising from the global financial credit and subprime-mortgage crisis that began in 2007. Such matters include, among other types of proceedings, claims asserted by: (i) individual investors and purported classes of investors in Citigroup’s common and preferred stock and debt, alleging violations of the federal securities laws, foreign laws, state securities and fraud law, and the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (“ERISA”); (ii) individual investors and purported classes of investors in, and issuers of, auction rate securities alleging violations of the federal securities and antitrust laws; (iii) counterparties to significant transactions adversely affected by developments in the credit and subprime markets; (iv) individual investors and purported classes of investors in securities and other investments underwritten, issued or marketed by Citigroup, including securities issued by other public companies, collateralized debt obligations (“CDOs”), mortgage-backed securities (“MBS”), auction-rate securities (“ARS”), investment funds, and other structured or leveraged instruments, which have suffered losses as a result of the credit crisis; (v) municipalities, related entities and individuals asserting public nuisance claims; and (vi) individual borrowers asserting claims related to their loans. These matters have been filed in state and federal courts across the U.S. and in foreign tribunals, as well as in arbitrations before Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) and other arbitration associations.

In addition to these litigations and arbitrations, Citigroup continues to cooperate fully in response to subpoenas and requests for information from the SEC, FINRA, the Federal Housing Finance Agency (“FHFA”) , state attorneys general, the Department of Justice and subdivisions thereof, bank regulators, and other federal and state government agencies and authorities in connection with various formal and informal (and, in many instances, industry-wide) 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 CDOs and MBS, and its origination, sale or other transfer, servicing, and foreclosure of residential mortgages.

Regulatory Actions: On October 19, 2011, in connection with its industry wide investigation concerning CDO-related business activities, the SEC filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York regarding Citigroup’s structuring and sale of the Class V Funding III CDO transaction (“Class V”), which alleged that CGM negligently failed to disclose in the Class V offering documents that CGM played a role in the asset selection process for the transaction and retained a short position in certain of those assets. On the same day, the SEC and Citigroup announced a settlement of the SEC’s claims, subject to judicial approval, and the SEC filed a proposed final judgment pursuant to which Citigroup’s U.S. broker-dealer CGM agreed to disgorge $160 million and to pay $30 million in prejudgment interest and a $95 million penalty. On November 28, 2011, the district court issued an order refusing to approve the proposed settlement and ordering trial to begin on July 16, 2012. On December 15 and 19, 2011, respectively, the SEC and CGM filed notices of appeal from the district court’s November 28 order. On December 27, 2011, the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit granted an emergency stay of further proceedings in the district court, pending the Second Circuit’s ruling on the SEC’s motion to stay the district court proceedings during the pendency of the appeals. On March 15, 2012, the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit granted a stay of the district court proceedings pending resolution of the appeals in SEC v. CGM.

Federal and state regulators, including the SEC, also have served subpoenas or otherwise requested information related to Citigroup’s issuing, sponsoring, or underwriting of MBS. These inquiries include a subpoena from the Civil Division of the Department of Justice that Citigroup received on January 27, 2012.

Subprime Mortgage–Related Litigation and Other Matters

Beginning in November 2007, Citigroup and a number of current and former officers, directors, and employees have been named as defendants in a variety of class action and individual securities lawsuits brought by Citigroup shareholders, investors in Citigroup’s equity and debt securities, counterparties and others concerning Citigroup’s activities relating to subprime mortgages, including Citigroup’s disclosures regarding its exposure to CDOs, MBS, and structured investment vehicles (“SIVs”), Citigroup’s underwriting activity for subprime mortgage lenders, and Citigroup’s more general involvement in subprime- and credit-related activities.

Securities Actions:

On September 30 and October 28, 2008, Citigroup, certain Citigroup entities, certain current and former directors and officers of Citigroup and Citigroup Funding, Inc., and certain underwriters of Citigroup notes (including CGM) were named as defendants in two alleged class actions filed in New York state court but since removed to the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. These actions allege violations of Sections 11, 12, and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, arising out of forty-eight corporate debt securities, preferred stock, and interests in preferred stock issued by Citigroup and related issuers over a two-year period from 2006 to 2008. On December 10, 2008, these two actions were consolidated under the caption IN RE CITIGROUP INC. BOND LITIGATION, and lead plaintiff and counsel were appointed. On January 15, 2009, plaintiffs filed a consolidated class action complaint.

On March 13, 2009, defendants filed a motion to dismiss the complaint. On July 12, 2010, the court issued an opinion and order dismissing plaintiffs’ claims under Section 12 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, as amended, but denying defendants’ motion to dismiss certain claims under Section 11. On September 30, 2010, the district court entered a scheduling order in IN RE CITIGROUP INC. BOND LITIGATION. Fact discovery began in November 2010, and plaintiffs’ motion to certify a class is pending. Plaintiffs have not yet quantified the alleged class’ alleged damages. Because of the preliminary stage of the proceedings, Citigroup cannot at this time estimate the possible loss or range of loss, if any, for this action or predict the timing of its eventual resolution.

On March 13 and 16, 2009, two cases were filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York alleging violations of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended -BUCKINGHAM v. CITIGROUP INC., ET AL. and CHEN v. CITIGROUP INC., ET AL. and were later designated as related to IN RE CITIGROUP INC. BOND LITIGATION. On May 7, 2009, BUCKINGHAM and CHEN were consolidated with IN RE CITIGROUP INC. BOND LITIGATION.

On April 9, 2009, another case asserting violations of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended -PELLEGRINI v. CITIGROUP INC., ET AL.-was filed in the United Stated District Court for the Southern District of New York and the parties have jointly requested that the PELLEGRIN I action be designated as related to IN RE CITIGROUP INC. SECURITIES LITIGATION and IN RE CITIGROUP INC. BOND LITIGATION. On May 11, 2009, an alleged class action ASHER, ET AL. v. CITIGROUP INC., ET AL. was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York alleging violations of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended in connection with plaintiffs’ investments in certain offerings of preferred stock issued by Citigroup. On May 15, 2009, plaintiffs in IN RE CITIGROUP INC. BOND LITIGATION requested that ASH ER and PELLEGRINI be consolidated with IN RE CITIGROU P INC. BOND LITIGATION. On August 31, 2009, ASH ER and PELLEGRINI were consolidated with IN RE CITIGROUP INC. BOND LITIGATION.

On March 23, 2009, a case was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of California alleging violations of both the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934- BRECHER v. CITIGROUP INC., ET AL. On April 16, 2009, Citigroup filed a motion before the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation for transfer of the BRECHER action to the Southern District of New York for coordinated pre-trial proceedings with IN RE CITIGROUP INC. SECURITIES LITIGATION and IN RE CITIGROUP INC. BOND LITIGATION. On August 7, 2009, the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation transferred BRECHER, ET AL. v. CITIGROUP INC., ET AL. to the Southern District of New York for coordination with IN RE CITIGROUP INC. SECURITIES LITIGATION.

On April 17, 2009, an alleged class action BRECHER, ET AL. v. CGM, ET AL. was filed in California state court asserting claims against Citigroup, CGM, and certain of the Citigroup’s current and former directors under California’s Business and Professions Code and Labor Code, as well as under California common law, relating to, among other things, losses incurred on common stock awarded to Smith Barney financial advisors in connection with the execution of their employment contracts. On May 19, 2009, an amended complaint was filed. On July 9, 2009, the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation was notified that BRECHER, ET AL. v. CGM, ET AL. is a potential tag-along action to IN RE CITIGROUP, INC. SECURITIES LITIGATION. On July 15, 2009, after having removed the case to the United States District Court for the Southern District of California, defendants filed motions to dismiss the complaint and to stay all further proceedings pending resolution of the tag-along petition. On July 22, 2009, plaintiffs in BRECHER, ET AL. v. CGM, ET AL. voluntarily dismissed the claims against the individual defendants and moved to remand the remaining action against Citigroup, CGM, and the Personnel and Compensation Committee to state court. On September 8, 2009, the United States District Court for the Southern District of California ordered that defendants show cause as to why there was federal jurisdiction over the case. On September 17, 2009, defendants responded to the district court’s order.

On August 19, 2009, KOCH, ET AL. v. CITIGROUP INC., ET AL., an alleged class action, was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of California on behalf of participants in Citigroup’s Voluntary FA Capital Accumulation Program (“FA CAP Program”) against various defendants, including Citigroup and CGM, asserting claims under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and Minnesota state law in connection with plaintiffs’ acquisition of certain securities through the FA CAP Program. On September 30, 2009, the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation conditionally transferred KOCH to the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York as a potential tag-along to IN RE CITIGROUP INC. SECURITIES LITIGATION. On October 8, 2009, a consolidated amended complaint was filed in BRECHER, ET AL. v. CITIGROUP INC., ET AL. in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, asserting claims under the federal securities laws and Minnesota and California state law. The complaint purports to consolidate the similar claims asserted in KOCH.

In the consolidated action, lead plaintiffs assert claims on behalf of an alleged class of participants in Citigroup’s Voluntary Financial Advisor Capital Accumulation Plan from November 2006 through January 2009. On June 7, 2011, the district court granted defendants’ motion to dismiss the complaint and subsequently entered judgment. On November 14, 2011, the district court granted in part plaintiffs’ motion to alter or amend the judgment and granted plaintiffs leave to amend the complaint. On November 23, 2011, plaintiffs filed an amended complaint alleging violations of Section 12 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Defendants filed a motion to dismiss certain of plaintiffs’ claims on December 21, 2011.

Several institutions and sophisticated investors that purchased debt and equity securities issued by Citigroup and related issuers have also filed actions on their own behalf against Citigroup and certain of its subsidiaries in the Southern District of New York and the Court of Common Pleas for Philadelphia County. These actions assert claims similar to those asserted in the IN RE CITIGROUP INC. SECURITIES LITIGATION and IN RE CITIGROUP INC. BOND LITIGATION actions described above. Collectively, these investors seek damages exceeding $1 billion. On June 8, 2012, defendants filed an interlocutory appeal in the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit from the district court’s decision in INTERNATIONAL FUND MANAGEMENT S.A., ET AL. v. CITIGROUP INC., ET AL., holding that the tolling doctrine set forth in American Pipe & Construction Co. v. Utah, 414 U.S. 538 (1974), applies to the statute of repose in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

Other Matters:

Underwriting Actions. In its capacity as a member of various underwriting syndicates, CGM also has been named as a defendant in several subprime-related actions asserted against various issuers of debt and other securities. Most of these actions involve claims asserted on behalf of alleged classes of purchasers of securities for alleged violations of Sections 11 and 12(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

AIG. Beginning in October 2008, four alleged class actions were filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York by American International Group, Inc. (“AIG”) investors and shareholders. These actions allege violations of Sections 11, 12, and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended arising out of allegedly false and misleading statements contained in the registration statements and prospectuses issued in connection with offerings of AIG debt securities and common stock, some of which were underwritten by CGM. On March 20, 2009, the four alleged class actions

were consolidated by the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York under the caption IN RE AMERICAN INTERNATIONAL GROUP, INC. 2008 SECURITIES LITIGATION. Plaintiffs filed a consolidated amended complaint on May 19, 2009, which includes two Citigroup affiliates among the underwriter defendants. On August 5, 2009, the underwriter defendants, including CGM and CGML, moved to dismiss the consolidated amended complaint.

Ambac Financial Group. On May 9, 2008, four alleged class actions brought by shareholders of Ambac Financial Group, Inc., pending in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, were consolidated under the caption IN RE AMBAC FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. SECURITIES LITIGATION. On August 22, 2008, plaintiffs filed a consolidated amended class action complaint alleging violations of Sections 11 and 12 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended arising out of allegedly false and misleading statements contained in the registration statements and prospectuses issued in connection with offerings of Ambac securities, some of which were underwritten by CGM. Defendants filed a motion to dismiss the complaint on October 21, 2008. On December 3, 2010, plaintiffs and the underwriter defendants, including Citigroup, entered into a memorandum of understanding settling all claims against Citigroup subject to the entry of a final stipulation of settlement and court approval. On May 6, 2011, plaintiffs and the underwriter defendants, including Citigroup, in IN RE AMBAC FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. SECURITIES LITIGATION signed formal stipulations of settlement, which were submitted to the court for preliminary approval. On June 14, 2011, the court entered an order preliminarily approving the proposed settlement. On September 28, 2011, the district court approved the settlement between plaintiffs and defendants, including Citigroup, in IN RE AMBAC FINANCIAL GROUP INC. SECURITIES LITIGATION and judgment was entered. A member of the settlement class has appealed the judgment to the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit. On December 22, 2011, the underwriter defendants moved to dismiss the appeal. On March 21, 2012, the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit granted the underwriters, motion to dismiss an appeal seeking to challenge the district court’s approval of the underwriters, settlement of IN RE AMBAC FINANCIAL GROUP, INC. SECURITIES LITIGATION.

American Home Mortgage. On March 21, 2008, 19 alleged class actions brought by shareholders of American Home Mortgage Investment Corp., pending in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York, were consolidated under the caption IN RE AMERICAN HOME MORTGAGE SECURITIES LITIGATION. On June 3, 2008, plaintiffs filed a consolidated amended complaint, alleging violations of Sections 11 and 12 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended arising out of allegedly false and misleading statements contained in the registration statements and prospectuses issued in connection with two offerings of American Home Mortgage securities underwritten by CGM, among others. Defendants, including Citigroup and CGM, filed a motion to dismiss the complaint on September 12, 2008. On July 7, 2009, lead plaintiffs filed a motion for preliminary approval of settlements reached with all defendants (including Citigroup and CGM). On July 31, 2009, the District Court entered an order preliminarily approving settlements reached with all defendants (including Citigroup and CGM).

On July 27, 2009, UTAH RETIREMENT SYSTEMS v. STRAUSS, ET AL. was filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York asserting, among other claims, claims under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Utah state law arising out of an offering of American Home Mortgage common stock underwritten by CGM. This matter has been settled.

Countrywide. Citigroup has been named in several alleged class actions lawsuits alleging violations of Section 11 and 12 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended relating to its role as one of numerous underwriters of offerings of securities and mortgage pass-through certificates issued by Countrywide. The lawsuits include a consolidated action filed in the United States District Court for the Central District of California and two other lawsuits pending in the Superior Court of the California, Los Angeles County.

Lehman. Citigroup has been named in several alleged class action lawsuits alleging violations of Section 11 and 12 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended relating to its role as one of numerous underwriters of offerings of securities issued by Lehman Brothers. The lawsuits are currently pending in the United States District Courts for the Southern District of New York, the Eastern District of New York and the Eastern and Western Districts of Arkansas. On May 2, 2012, the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York entered a judgment approving a stipulation of settlement with the underwriter defendants, including Citigroup, in IN RE LEHMAN BROTHERS EQUITY/DEBT SECURITIES LITIGATION.

Fannie Mae. Beginning in August 2008, CGM, along with a number of other financial institutions, was named as a defendant in eight complaints filed by shareholders of Federal National Mortgage Association (“Fannie Mae”) in connection with the underwriting of three offerings of Fannie Mae stock during 2007 and 2008. CGM, along with the other defendants, moved to dismiss three of the suits that alleged violations of Section 12(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The remaining actions allege violations of Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act. On January 29, 2009, the U.S. Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation heard oral argument on whether all lawsuits pending against CGM and several other lawsuits pending against other defendants should be consolidated.

Freddie Mac. CGM, along with a number of other financial institutions, has been named as a defendant in two lawsuits pending in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York brought by Freddie Mac shareholders who purchased preferred shares traceable to a November 2007 offering of Z Preferred Shares. Plaintiffs allege violations of Section 12(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 because the offering materials failed to disclose Freddie Mac’s exposure to mortgage-related losses, poor underwriting procedures and risk management, and the resulting negative impact to Freddie’s capital.

Discrimination in Lending Actions. Two alleged class actions have been filed alleging claims of racial discrimination in mortgage lending under the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, the Fair Housing Act, and/or the Civil Rights Act. The first action, PUELLO, ET AL. v. CITIFINANCIAL SERVICES, INC., ET AL., was filed against Citigroup and its affiliates in the United States District Court for the District of Massachusetts. The second action, NAACP v. AMERIQUEST MORTGAGE CO., ET AL., was filed against one of Citigroup’s affiliates in the United States District Court for the Central District of California. In each action, defendants’ motions to dismiss have been denied. On September 21, 2009, the United States District Court for the Central District of California denied defendant CitiMortgage’s motion for summary judgment and granted its motion to strike the jury demand.

Counterparty and Investor Actions. Citigroup and certain of its subsidiaries have been named as defendants in actions brought by counterparties and investors that have suffered losses as a result of the credit crisis. Those actions include claims asserted by investors in CDO-related transactions, including Moneygram Payment Systems, Inc., which filed a lawsuit in Minnesota state court on October 26, 2011, alleging misstatements in connection with the sale of CDO securities.

Ambac: Counterparties to transactions involving CDOs, SIVs, credit default swaps (“CDS”), and other instruments related to investments in MBS have sued Citigroup on a variety of theories. On August 3, 2009, one such counterparty filed an action—AMBAC CREDIT PRODUCTS, LLC v. CITIGROUP INC., et al. —in New York Supreme Court, County of New York, alleging various claims including fraud and breach of fiduciary duty in connection with Citigroup’s purchase of CDS from Ambac as credit protection for a $1.95 billion super-senior tranche of a CDO structured by Citigroup, the underlying assets of which allegedly included subprime MBS. Ambac alleges, among other things, that Citigroup misrepresented the nature of the risks that were being transferred. On October 7, 2009, defendants filed a motion to dismiss the complaint. On June 7, 2010, in connection with a global settlement agreement between Ambac and Citigroup, the parties stipulated to a discontinuation with prejudice.

In August 2011, two Saudi nationals and related entities commenced a FINRA arbitration against CGM alleging $380 million in losses resulting from certain options trades referencing a portfolio of hedge funds and certain credit facilities collateralized by a private equity portfolio. CGM did not serve as the counterparty or credit facility provider in these transactions. In September 2011, CGM commenced an action in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York seeking to enjoin the arbitration. Simultaneously with that filing, the Citigroup entities that served as the counterparty or credit facility provider to the transactions commenced actions in London and Switzerland for declaratory judgments of no liability.

RMBS Litigation and Other Matters

Beginning in July 2010, Citigroup and certain of its subsidiaries have been named as defendants in complaints filed by purchasers of MBS and CDOs sold or underwritten by Citigroup. The MBS-related complaints generally assert that the defendants made material misrepresentations and omissions about the credit quality of the mortgage loans underlying the securities, such as the underwriting standards to which the loans conformed, the loan-to-value ratio of the loans, and the extent to which the mortgaged properties were owner-occupied, and typically assert claims under Section 11 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, state blue sky laws, and/or common-law misrepresentation-based causes of action. The CDO-related complaints further allege that the defendants adversely selected or permitted the adverse selection of CDO collateral without full disclosure to investors. The plaintiffs in these actions generally seek rescission of their investments, recovery of their investment losses, or other damages. Other purchasers of MBS and CDOs sold or underwritten by Citigroup have threatened to file additional suits, for some of which Citigroup has agreed to toll (extend) the statute of limitations.

The filed actions generally are in the early stages of proceedings, and certain of the actions or threatened actions have been resolved through settlement or otherwise. The aggregate original purchase amount of the purchases at issue in the filed suits is approximately $10.8 billion, and the aggregate original purchase amount of the purchases covered by tolling agreements with investors threatening litigation is approximately $6.4 billion. The largest MBS investor claim against Citigroup and certain of its subsidiaries, as measured by the face value of purchases at issue, has been asserted by the FHFA, as conservator for Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. This suit was filed on September 2, 2011, and has been coordinated in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York with fifteen other related suits brought by the same plaintiff against various other financial institutions. Motions to dismiss in the coordinated suits have been denied in large part, and discovery is proceeding. An interlocutory appeal currently is pending in the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit on issues common to all of the coordinated suits.

On July 14, 2011, plaintiff filed an amended complaint in FEDERAL HOME LOAN BANK OF INDIANAPOLIS v. BANC OF AMERICA MORTGAGE SECURITIES, INC., ET AL., which no longer names Citigroup or any of its affiliates as defendants.

On September 2, 2011, the FHFA filed four lawsuits against Citigroup and certain of its subsidiaries alleging actionable misstatements or omissions in connection with the issuance and/or underwriting of residential mortgage-backed securities. The FHFA has asserted similar claims against numerous other financial institutions. The FHFA seeks rescission of investments made by Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, and/or other damages. On May 4, 2012, the district court in FEDERAL HOUSING FINANCE AGENCY v. UBS AMERICAS, INC., ET AL., a parallel case to FEDERAL HOUSING FINANCE AGENCY v. ALLY FINANCIAL INC., ET AL., FEDERAL HOUSING FINANCE AGENCY v. CITIGROUP INC., ET AL., and FEDERAL HOUSING FINANCE AGENCY v. JPMORGAN CHASE & CO., ET AL., denied defendants’ motion to dismiss plaintiff’s securities law claims and granted defendants’ motion to dismiss plaintiff’s negligent misrepresentation claims. On June 19, 2012, the district court granted defendants’ motion to certify an interlocutory appeal to the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit from the court’s statutes of repose and limitations rulings. On August 14, 2012, a motions panel of the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit granted defendants’ motion for leave to appeal from the district court’s denial of defendants’ motion to dismiss in FEDERAL HOUSING FINANCE AGENCY v. UBS AMERICAS, INC., ET AL., a parallel case to FEDERAL HOUSING FINANCE AGENCY v. ALLY FINANCIAL INC., ET AL., FEDERAL HOUSING FINANCE AGENCY v. CITIGROUP INC., ET AL., and FEDERAL HOUSING FINANCE AGENCY v. JPMORGAN CHASE & CO., ET AL.

On September 9, 2011, the Western & Southern Life Insurance Company and other entities filed an amended complaint against CGM, as well as other financial institutions, alleging actionable misstatements or omissions in connection with the sale of residential mortgage-backed securities. On June 6, 2012, the court granted in part and denied in part defendants’ motions to dismiss in WESTERN & SOUTHERN LIFE INS. CO., ET AL. v. RESIDENTIAL FUNDING CO., LLC, ET AL.

On January 27, 2012, in THE CHARLES SCHWAB CORP. v. BNP PARIBAS SECURITIES CORP., ET AL., the court overruled the demurrers as to all claims involving Citigroup. Plaintiff filed an amended complaint on April 5, 2012.

On May 15, 2012, Woori Bank filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against Citigroup and certain of its subsidiaries alleging actionable misstatements and omissions in connection with Woori Bank’s $95 million investment in five CDOs.

On May 18, 2012, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation filed complaints in the United States District Courts for the Southern District of New York and the Central District of California against various defendants, including CGM, Citicorp Mortgage Securities Inc., and CitiMortgage Inc., in connection with purchases of RMBS by two failed banks for which the FDIC is acting as receiver.

On June 26, 2012, the court overruled defendants’ demurrer to plaintiff’s amended complaint in FEDERAL HOME LOAN BANK OF CHICAGO v. BANC OF AMERICA SECURITIES, LLC, ET AL.

On July 27, 2012, John Hancock Life Insurance Co. and several affiliated entities filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the District of Minnesota against various defendants, including CGM, asserting disclosure claims arising out of purchases of RMBS.

On July 27, 2012, Royal Park Investments SA/NV filed a summons with notice in New York Supreme Court against various defendants, including Citigroup and certain of its subsidiaries, asserting disclosure claims arising out of purchases of RMBS.

On September 5, 2012, IKB International S.A. and IKB Deutsche Industriebank AG filed a summons with notice in New York Supreme Court against Citigroup and certain of its subsidiaries.

On September 19, 2012, the Illinois state court denied defendants’ motions to dismiss in FEDERAL HOME LOAN BANK OF CHICAGO v. BANC OF AMERICA FUNDING CORP., ET AL.

On September 28, 2012, the Massachusetts state court denied in part and granted in part defendants’ motion to dismiss in CAMBRIDGE PLACE INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT, INC. v. MORGAN STANLEY & CO., INC., ET AL.

On October 15, 2012, the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York granted lead plaintiffs’ amended motion for class certification in NEW JERSEY CARPENTERS HEALTH FUND V. RESIDENTIAL CAPITAL LLC, ET AL., having previously denied lead plaintiffs’ motion for class certification on January 18, 2011. Plaintiffs in this action allege violations of Sections 11, 12, and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and assert disclosure claims on behalf of an alleged class of purchasers of mortgage-backed securities issued by Residential Accredited Loans, Inc. pursuant or traceable to prospectus materials filed on March 3, 2006 and April 3, 2007. CGM is one of the underwriter defendants.

Other purchasers of residential mortgage-backed securities sold or underwritten by affiliates of Citigroup affiliates have threatened to file lawsuits asserting similar claims, some of which Citigroup has agreed to toll pending further discussions with those investors.

In addition to these actions, various parties to MBS securitizations and other interested parties have asserted that certain affiliates of Citigroup breached representations and warranties made in connection with mortgage loans sold into securitization trusts (private-label securitizations). In connection with such assertions, Citigroup has received significant levels of inquiries and demands for loan files, as well as requests to toll (extend) the applicable statutes of limitation for, among others, representation and warranty claims relating to its private-label securitizations. These inquiries, demands and requests have come from trustees of securitization trusts and others.

Among these requests, in December 2011, Citigroup received a letter from the law firm Gibbs & Bruns LLP, which purports to represent a group of investment advisers and holders of MBS issued or underwritten by affiliates of Citigroup. Through that letter and subsequent discussions, Gibbs & Bruns LLP has asserted that its clients collectively hold certificates in 87 MBS trusts purportedly issued and/or underwritten by affiliates of Citigroup, and that affiliates of Citigroup have repurchase obligations for certain mortgages in these trusts. Given the continued and increased focus on mortgage-related matters, as well as the increasing level of litigation and regulatory activity relating to mortgage loans and mortgage-backed securities, the level of inquiries and assertions respecting securitizations may further increase. These inquiries and assertions could lead to actual claims for breaches of representations and warranties, or to litigation relating to such breaches or other matters.

Auction-rate Securities-Related Litigation and Other Matters

Beginning in March 2008, Citigroup and certain of its subsidiaries have been named as defendants in numerous actions and proceedings brought by Citigroup shareholders and purchasers or issuers of ARS, asserting claims under the federal securities laws, Section 1 of the Sherman Antitrust Act (the “Sherman Act”), and state law arising from the collapse of the ARS market in early 2008, which plaintiffs contend Citigroup and other ARS underwriters foresaw or should have foreseen but failed adequately to disclose. Most of these matters have been dismissed or settled.

Securities Actions: Beginning in March 2008, Citigroup, CGM and their affiliates and certain current and former officers, directors, and employees, have been named as defendants in several individual and alleged class action lawsuits related to ARS. These alleged securities class actions have been consolidated in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, as IN RE CITIGROUP AUCTION RATE SECURITIES LITIGATION. A consolidated amended complaint was filed on August 25, 2008, asserting claims for market manipulation under Sections 10 and 20 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, violations of the Investment Advisers Act and various state Deceptive Practices Acts, as well as claims for breach of fiduciary duty and injunctive relief. Defendants filed a motion to dismiss the complaint on October 24, 2008, which was fully briefed on January 23, 2009. On September 11, 2009, the court granted defendants’ motion to dismiss the consolidated amended complaint. On October 15, 2009, plaintiffs filed a further amended complaint, which defendants also have moved to dismiss. On March 1, 2011, the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York dismissed plaintiffs’ fourth consolidated amended complaint in IN RE CITIGROUP AUCTION RATE SECURITIES LITIGATION. Plaintiffs-appellants have appealed to the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit from the order entered on March 1, 2011 by the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York in IN RE CITIGROUP AUCTION RATE SECURITIES LITIGATION dismissing their fourth consolidated amended complaint. Several individual ARS actions also have been filed in state and federal courts, asserting, among other things, violations of federal and state securities laws. Citigroup has moved the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation to transfer all of the individual ARS actions pending in federal court to the Southern District of New York for consolidation or coordination with IN RE CITIGROUP INC. AUCTION RATE SECURITIES LITIGATION.

On June 10, 2009, the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation granted CGM’s motion to transfer AMERICAN EAGLE OUTFITTERS, INC., ET AL. v. CITIGROUP GLOBAL MARKETS INC. from the United States District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania to the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, where it will be coordinated with IN RE CITIGROUP INC. AUCTION RATE SECURITIES LITIGATION and FINN v. SMITH BARNEY, ET AL. On June 17, 2009, the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation issued an order conditionally transferring three other individual auction rate securities actions pending against CGM in other federal courts to the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. Plaintiffs in those actions have opposed their transfer.

On April 1, 2009, TEXAS INSTRUMENTS INC. v. CITIGROUP GLOBAL MARKETS INC., ET AL. was filed in Texas state court asserting violations of state securities law by CGM, B NY Capital Markets, Inc. and Morgan Stanley and Co., Inc. Defendants removed the case to the United States District Court for the Northern District of Texas, and plaintiff has moved to have it remanded to state court. On May 8, 2009, CGM filed a motion to sever the claims against it from the claims against its co-defendants. On May 17, 2011, the District Court of Dallas County, Texas, dismissed plaintiff’s complaint in TEXAS INSTRUMENTS INC. v. CITIGROUP GLOBAL MARKETS INC., ET AL, following the settlement of the matter.

On July 23, 2009, the Judicial Panel on Multidistrict Litigation issued an order transferring K-V PHARMACEUTICAL CO. v. CGM from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri to the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York for coordination with IN RE CITIGROUP AUCTION-RATE SECURITIES LITIGATION. On August 24, 2009, CGM moved to dismiss the complaint.

On October 2, 2009, the Judicial Panel on Multi-district Litigation transferred OCWEN FINANCIAL CORP., ET AL. v. CGM to the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York for coordination with IN RE CITIGROUP AUCTION RATE SECURITIES LITIGATION. On March 27, 2012, the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit affirmed the district court’s dismissal of plaintiffs’ complaint in IN RE CITIGROUP AUCTION RATE SECURITIES LITIGATION.

Hansen Beverage Co. v. Citigroup Inc., et al.: On July 11, 2008, a complaint was filed against Citigroup, CGM and Smith Barney, alleging violations of Sections 10 and 20 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and the Investment Advisers Act arising out of plaintiff’s investment in ARS. On September 22, 2008, the Citigroup defendants filed a motion to compel arbitration, which was granted on October 10, 2008. A motion to reconsider the District Court’s decision was denied on October 21, 2008. This action is currently stayed, pending arbitration.

Antitrust Actions: MAYOR & CITY COUNCIL OF BALTIMORE, MARYLAND v. CITIGROUP INC., ET AL. and RUSSELL MAYFIELD, ET AL. v. CITIGROUP INC., ET AL., are lawsuits filed in the Southern District of New York on behalf of a purported class of ARS issuers and investors, respectively, against Citigroup, CGM and various other financial institutions. In these actions, plaintiffs allege violations of Section 1 of the Sherman Act arising out of defendants’ alleged conspiracy to artificially restrain trade in the ARS market. On January 15, 2009, defendants filed motions to dismiss the complaints in these actions. On January 26, 2010, both actions were dismissed. The actions are now pending on appeal.

Governmental and Regulatory Matters. On August 7, 2008, Citigroup and certain of its affiliates reached a settlement with the New York Attorney General, the Securities and Exchange Commission, and other state regulatory agencies, pursuant to which Citigroup agreed to offer to purchase at par ARS that are not auctioning from all Citigroup individual investors, small institutions (as defined in by the terms of the settlement), and charities that purchased ARS from Citigroup prior to February 11, 2008. In addition, Citigroup agreed to pay a $50 million fine to the State of New York and a $50 million fine to the other state regulatory agencies.

Citigroup and certain of its affiliates are also subject to formal and informal investigations, as well as subpoenas and/or requests for information, from various governmental and self-regulatory agencies relating to auction-rate securities. Citigroup and its affiliates are cooperating fully and are engaged in discussions on these matters.

Arbitrations. In addition to the various lawsuits discussed above, several arbitrations are pending against Citigroup and certain of its affiliates relating to A RS investments.

Falcon and ASTA/M AT–Related Litigation and Other Matters

Beginning in April 2008, Citigroup has been named as defendant in various complaints filed by investors in the Falcon and ASTA/MAT funds seeking recoupment of their alleged losses. Although most of these investor disputes have been resolved, some remain pending.

In re MAT Five Securities Litigation: Three actions asserting claims for alleged violations of Section 12 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, as well as violations of the Delaware Securities Act and breach of fiduciary duty under Delaware law, were filed by investors in MAT Five LLC in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. These actions were consolidated under the caption IN RE MAT FIVE SECURITIES LITIGATION. A consolidated class action complaint was filed on October 2, 2008. On December 4, 2008, defendants filed a motion in the District Court to dismiss the complaint in this consolidated action brought by investors in MAT Five LLC. On February 2, 2009, lead plaintiffs informed the court they intended to dismiss voluntarily this action in light of the settlement in MARIE RAYMOND REVOCABLE TRUST, ET AL. v. MAT FIVE LLC, ET AL. in the Delaware Chancery Court, which is currently being appealed (discussed above). On April 16, 2009, lead plaintiffs requested that the action be stayed pending the outcome of the appeal in the Delaware case. On July 8, 2009, the District Court approved the voluntary dismissal of this action.

Zentner v. Citigroup Inc. et al.: On June 26, 2008, an investor in Falcon Strategies Plus LLC filed an alleged class action complaint in New York state court, asserting claims for fraud and negligent misrepresentation under New York law, and breach of fiduciary duty under Delaware law, relating to the marketing of shares and the management of the Falcon fund. Defendants filed a motion to dismiss the complaint on November 28, 2008. On May 19, 2009, the New York Supreme Court issued a letter order, stating that it would approve a settlement of plaintiff’s individual claims. Plaintiff filed a stipulation dismissing this action on July 6, 2009.

Zentner v. Citigroup Inc. et al.: On June 26, 2008, an alleged class action was filed in New York state court by investors in MAT Two, Mat Three, and MAT Five, against Citi, CGM, and various related entities, alleging fraud and negligent misrepresentation under New York law and breach of fiduciary duty under Delaware law related to the marketing of shares and management of the funds. On July 3, 2008, defendants removed the action to the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. Defendants filed a motion to dismiss the complaint on November 28, 2008. The alleged class action was consolidated with IN RE MAT FIVE SECURITIES LITIGATION. On July 8, 2009, the District Court dismissed this action, without prejudice, in connection with the dismissal of IN RE MAT FIVE SECURITIES LITIGATION.

Puglisi v. Citigroup Alternative Investments LLC, et al.: On October 17, 2008, an investor in MAT Five LLC filed an alleged class action complaint in New York state court, alleging breaches of fiduciary duty relating to the marketing of shares and the management of the MAT Five fund. On November 11, 2008, defendants filed a notice of removal to the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. On December 1, 2008, the District Court accepted the case as related to IN RE MAT FIVE SECURITIES LITIGATION (discussed above), and consolidated PUGLISI with that action. On January 9, 2009, plaintiff filed a motion to remand this action to New York Supreme Court. On May 29, 2009, the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York denied plaintiff’s motion to remand this action to state court.

Goodwill v. MAT Five LLC, et al.: On June 26, 2008, an investor in MAT Five LLC filed an alleged class action complaint in California state court, alleging violations of Section 12 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended relating to marketing of shares of MAT Five LLC.

Hosier v. Citigroup Global Markets Inc.: In April 2011, a FINRA arbitration panel awarded two ASTA/MAT investors $54 million in damages and attorneys’ fees, including punitive damages, against Citigroup. In December 2011, the United States District Court for the District of Colorado entered an order confirming the FINRA panel’s award. Citigroup has filed a notice of appeal to the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals. The parties in HOSIER v. CITIGROUP GLOBAL MARKETS INC. have reached an agreement to settle the action, pursuant to which Citigroup has voluntarily dismissed its appeal in the United States Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit.

Arbitrations. In addition to the various lawsuits discussed above, several arbitrations are pending against Citigroup and certain of its affiliates relating to ASTA/MAT investments. On April 11, 2011, a FINRA arbitration panel in Denver awarded $54 million in damages and attorneys’ fees, including punitive damages, to claimants Jerry Murdock Jr. and Gerald Hosier arising out of their alleged losses in the ASTA/MAT and other funds.

State Attorney General Subpoenas: On June 11, 2012, the New York Attorney General served a subpoena on a Citigroup affiliate seeking documents and information concerning MAT Finance Fund LLC, ASTA Finance Fund LLC, and Falcon Strategies LLC. On August 1, 2012, the Massachusetts Attorney General served a Civil Investigative Demand on a Citigroup affiliate seeking similar documents and information. Citigroup is cooperating fully with these inquiries.

Governmental and Regulatory Matters. Citigroup and certain of its affiliates are subject to formal and informal investigations, as well as subpoenas and/or requests for information, from various governmental and self-regulatory agencies relating to the marketing and management of the Falcon and ASTA/MAT funds. The SEC is investigating the management and marketing of the ASTA/MAT and Falcon funds, alternative investment funds managed and marketed by certain Citigroup affiliates that suffered substantial losses during the credit crisis. Citigroup and its affiliates are cooperating fully and are engaged in discussions on these matters.

Adelphia Communications Corporation

On July 6, 2003, an adversary proceeding was filed by the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors on behalf of Adelphia Communications Corporation against certain lenders and investment banks, including CGM, Citibank, N.A., Citicorp USA, Inc., and Citigroup Financial Products, Inc. (together, the “Citigroup Parties”). The complaint alleged that the Citigroup

Parties and numerous other defendants committed acts in violation of the Bank Holding Company Act, the Bankruptcy Code, and common law. It sought an unspecified amount of damages. In November 2003, a similar adversary proceeding was filed by the Equity Holders Committee of Adelphia, asserting additional statutory and common law claims. In June 2004, motions to dismiss were filed with respect to the complaints of the two committees. Those motions were decided by the bankruptcy court, and were granted in part and denied in part. The district court affirmed in part and reversed in part the bankruptcy court’s decision. The Adelphia Recovery Trust (“ART”), which replaced the committees as the plaintiff in the action, filed an amended complaint on behalf of the Adelphia Estate, consolidating the two prior complaints; motions to dismiss the amended complaint and answers were filed. The district court granted in part and denied in part the defendants’ motions to dismiss the consolidated complaint. The ART’s appeal to the Second Circuit from that partial dismissal is pending.

Before the district court, the parties are briefing summary judgment. On September 22, 2010, the ART agreed in principle to settle its claims against numerous pre-petition lenders and investment banks, including Citigroup, in the action entitled ADELPHIA RECOVERY TRUST v. BANK OF AMERICA N.A., ET AL., 05 Civ. 9050 (S.D.N.Y.). The agreement in principle is subject to execution of a final settlement agreement and court approval.

In addition, CGM is among the underwriters named in numerous civil actions brought to date by investors in Adelphia debt securities in connection with Adelphia securities offerings between September 1997 and October 2001. Three of the complaints also assert claims against Citigroup Inc. and Citibank, N.A. All of the complaints allege violations of federal securities laws, and certain of the complaints also allege violations of state securities laws and the common law. The complaint seeks unspecified damages. In December 2003, a second amended complaint was filed and consolidated before the same judge of the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. In February 2004, motions to dismiss the class and individual actions pending in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York were filed. In May and July of 2005, the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York granted motions to dismiss several claims, based on the running of applicable statute of limitations, asserted in the alleged class and individual actions being coordinated under IN RE ADELPHIA COMMUNICATIONS CORPORATION SECURITIES AND DERIVATIVE LITIGATION. With the exception of one individual action that was dismissed with prejudice, the court granted the alleged class and individual plaintiffs leave to re-plead certain of those claims the court found to be time-barred. Without admitting any liability, CGM and numerous other financial institution defendants settled IN RE ADELPHIA COMMUNICATIONS CORPORATION SECURITIES AND DERIVATIVE LITIGATION for a total of $250 million, and the settlement was approved in November 2006. Two of the additional remaining individual complaints have been settled. Following settlements of the class action, which is pending appeal, and other individual actions, two cases remain outstanding. The Second Circuit is considering whether the plaintiff in one has proper standing to sue. In September 2007, motions to dismiss in the other case were granted in part and denied in part.

IPO Securities Litigation

In April 2002, consolidated amended complaints were filed against CGM and other investment banks named in numerous alleged class actions filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, alleging violations of certain federal securities laws (including Section 11 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) with respect to the allocation of shares for certain initial public offerings, related aftermarket transactions and damage to investors caused by allegedly biased research analyst reports.

Defendants’ motion to dismiss was denied. On October 13, 2004, the court granted in part the motion to certify class actions for six focus cases in the securities litigation. CGM is not a defendant in any of the six focus cases. In December 2006, the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit reversed the District Court and held that the classes could not be certified. Plaintiffs filed a petition for rehearing in January 2007; that petition was denied, and the case was remanded to the lower court. Plaintiffs filed amended pleadings in August 2007 and a new motion for class certification in September 2007.

Defendants moved to dismiss the amended pleadings in November 2007 and filed an opposition to the new motion for class certification in December 2007. On March 26, 2008, the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York denied in part and granted in part Defendants’ motions to dismiss the amended complaints. Following mediation, a settlement in principle was reached, subject to negotiation of definitive documentation and court approval. On June 10, 2009, the District Court entered an order preliminarily approving the proposed settlement of this matter and scheduling a hearing to determine whether the proposed settlement should be finally approved. In October 2009, the District Court entered an order granting final approval of the settlement.

Wage & Hour Employment Actions

Numerous financial services firms, including Citigroup and its affiliates, were named in alleged class actions alleging that certain present and former employees in California were entitled to overtime pay under state and federal laws; were subject to certain allegedly unlawful deductions under state law; or were entitled to reimbursement for employment related expenses incurred by them. The first of these class actions filed in the Fall of 2004 in the United States District Court for the Northern District of California, BAHRAMIPOUR v. CITIGROUP GLOBAL MARKETS INC., sought damages and injunctive relief on

behalf of an alleged class of California employees. Similar complaints have been subsequently filed against CGM on behalf of certain statewide or nationwide alleged classes in (i) the United States District Courts for the Southern District of New York, the District of New Jersey, the Eastern District of New York, the District of Massachusetts, and the Middle District of Pennsylvania; and (ii) the New Jersey Superior Court. Without admitting any liability, CGM reached an agreement in principle, which is subject to court approval, to a nationwide settlement for up to approximately $98 million of various class actions asserting violations of state and federal laws relating to overtime and violations of various state laws relating to alleged unlawful payroll deductions. Additional alleged class action lawsuits alleging a variety of violations of state and federal wage and hour laws have been filed against various other Citigroup businesses.

Terra Firma Litigation

Plaintiffs, general partners of two related private equity funds, filed a complaint in New York state court against certain Citigroup entities in December 2009, alleging that 2 1/2 years earlier, during the May 2007 auction of the music company EMI, Citigroup, as advisor to EMI and as a potential lender to plaintiffs’ acquisition vehicle Maltby, fraudulently or negligently orally misrepresented the intentions of another potential bidder regarding the auction. Plaintiffs allege that, but for the oral misrepresentations, Maltby would not have acquired EMI for approximately £4.2 billion. Plaintiffs further allege that, following the acquisition of EMI, certain Citigroup entities have tortiously interfered with plaintiffs’ business relationship with EMI. Plaintiffs seek billions of dollars in damages. Citigroup believes it has strong factual and legal defenses to the claims asserted by plaintiffs, including that no misrepresentation occurred, plaintiffs did not rely on the alleged misrepresentation in making their multi-billion-dollar investment in EMI, Citigroup has properly exercised its legal rights as lender in relation to the approximately £2.5 billion of financing it provided Maltby, and plaintiffs suffered no damages. The case, captioned TERRA FIRMA INVESTMENTS (GP) 2 LIMITED, et al., v. CITIGROUP INC., et al., was removed to the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York.

On September 15, 2010, the district court issued an order granting in part and denying in part Citigroup’s motion for summary judgment. Plaintiffs’ claims for negligent misrepresentation and tortious interference were dismissed. On October 18, 2010, a jury trial commenced on Plaintiffs’ remaining claims for fraudulent misrepresentation and fraudulent concealment. The court dismissed the fraudulent concealment claim before sending the case to the jury. On November 4, 2010, the jury returned a verdict on the fraudulent misrepresentation claim in favor of Citigroup. Judgment dismissing the complaint was entered on December 9, 2010. Plaintiffs have appealed the judgment as to the negligent misrepresentation claim, the fraudulent concealment claim and the fraudulent misrepresentation claim to the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit. Argument was held on October 4, 2012, and the matter is pending.

FINRA Settlements

On October 12, 2009, FINRA announced its acceptance of an Award Waiver and Consent (“AWC”) in which CGM, without admitting or denying the findings, consented to the entry of the AWC and a fine and censure of $600,000. The AWC includes findings that CGM failed to adequately supervise the activities of its equities trading desk in connection with swap and related hedge trades in U.S. and Italian equities that were designed to provide certain perceived tax advantages. CGM was charged with failing to provide for effective written procedures with respect to the implementation of the trades, failing to monitor Bloomberg messages and failing to properly report certain of the trades to the NASDAQ.

On May 22, 2012, FINRA announced its acceptance of an AWC in which CGM, without admitting or denying the findings, consented to the entry of the AWC and a fine and censure of $3.5 million. FINRA found that, in connection with several RMBS issued between January 2006 and October 2007 and underwritten by CGM, certain mortgage performance information posted to a website used for the offerings was inaccurate. In addition, FINRA found that certain of CGM’s supervisory and documentation practices with respect to pricing, independent price verification and margin calls were insufficient in 2007. The charges included failure to supervise, failure to observe high standards of commercial honor and just and equitable principles of trade, and books and records violations.

Other Matters

Lehman Brothers Bankruptcy Proceedings. Beginning in September 2010, Citigroup and certain of its subsidiaries have been named as defendants in various adversary proceedings in the Chapter 11 bankruptcy proceedings of Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. (“LBHI”) and the liquidation proceedings of Lehman Brothers Inc. (“LBI”). On March 18, 2011, Citigroup and certain of its subsidiaries were named as defendants in an adversary proceeding captioned LEHMAN BROTHERS INC. v. CITIBANK, N.A., ET AL. In the complaint, which asserts claims under federal bankruptcy and state law, the Securities Investor Protection Act Trustee alleges that a $1 billion cash deposit that LBI, the broker dealer subsidiary of LBHI, placed with Citibank prior to the commencement of liquidation proceedings should be returned to the bankruptcy estate, that Citibank’s setoff against the $1 billion deposit to satisfy its claims against LBI should be set aside, and that approximately $342 million in additional deposits by LBI currently held by Citibank and its affiliates should be returned to the estate. On December 13, 2012, the court entered an order approving a settlement between the parties resolving all of LBI’s claims. Under the settlement, Citibank, N.A.

retained $1.05 billion of assets to set off against its claims and received an allowed unsecured claim in the amount of $245 million. CGM and its affiliates have been named as defendants in an adversary proceeding asserting claims under state and federal law to recover funds allegedly paid to noteholders of synthetic CDOs liquidated as a result of bankruptcy filings by LBHI and its affiliates. Plaintiff Lehman Brothers Special Financing Inc. alleges it was a party to credit default swap agreements with the CDOs, and was entitled to a superior payment position following liquidation, but was subordinated to the noteholders in violation of federal law because of the bankruptcy filings by LBHI and its affiliates.

On September 15, 2008, LBHI subsidiary Lehman Brothers International (Europe) (“LBIE”) entered administration under English law. Since that time, Citigroup and certain of its subsidiaries have held as custodians approximately $2 billion of proprietary assets and cash of LBIE. During the course of LBIE’s administration, Citigroup and certain of its subsidiaries asserted a contractual right to retain the proprietary assets and cash as security for amounts owed to Citigroup and certain of its subsidiaries by LBIE and its affiliates (including LBHI and LBI), a right that the administrators for LBIE disputed. On June 28, 2011, Citigroup and certain of its subsidiaries entered into a settlement agreement with LBIE resolving the parties’ disputes with respect to LBIE’s proprietary assets and cash held by Citigroup and certain of its subsidiaries as custodians. Under the terms of the settlement, Citigroup and certain of its subsidiaries will return LBIE’s proprietary assets and cash and release all claims in respect of those assets and cash in exchange for releases, the payment of fees, and preservation of certain claims asserted by Citigroup and certain of its subsidiaries in LBIE’s insolvency proceedings in the United Kingdom.

27001 Partnership, et al. v. BT Securities Corp., et al. In December 2004, 46 individual purchasers of 10- 1/2% Senior Subordinated Notes (the “Notes”) issued in 1995 in connection with the leveraged recapitalization of Bruno’s Inc. sued the underwriters of the Notes, including Salomon Brothers, Inc., together with Bruno’s auditors, in Alabama state court. Plaintiffs brought state law claims arising out of, among other things, alleged material misrepresentations and omissions in the Prospectus issued in connection with the offering. The case was filed following the prior dismissal, after years of motion practice, of a lawsuit brought in April 2000 by the investment advisor to these 46 plaintiffs on behalf of its clients, which alleged identical claims against defendants. Plaintiffs allege that they purchased $190 million of the Notes and seek compensatory damages, punitive damages, attorneys’ fees and costs. After the commencement of the case in 2004, the parties engaged in extensive procedural motion practice, which resulted in the dismissal of several defendants on October 14, 2005. On August 25, 2009, 27001 PARTNERSHIP was consolidated with W.R. HUFF ASSET MANAGEMENT CO., LLC v. KOHLBERG KRAVIS ROBERTS & CO., L.P., also pending in the Circuit Court of Jefferson County, Alabama. The circuit court further held that the parties in 27001 PARTNERSHIP are to provide certain discovery materials to the parties in W. R. HUFF ASSET MANAGEMENT, but that the two cases would be tried separately. On September 18, 2009, defendants Salomon Brothers, Inc. and Chemical Securities, Inc. moved for summary judgment. On September 18, 2009, plaintiffs moved for partial summary judgment. In January 2010, prior to trial, the Citigroup subsidiaries and affiliates (the “Citigroup Defendants”) entered into a settlement conditioned on court approval. On March 24, 2010, pursuant to the settlement agreement, the Alabama state court entered an Order of Final Judgment and Dismissal and bar order, dismissing the Citigroup Defendants from the Bruno’s actions with prejudice.

W.R. Huff Asset Management Co., LLC v. Kohlberg Kravis Roberts & Co., L.P. In August 1999, W. R. Huff Asset Management Co., LLC filed this lawsuit (the “KKR Case”) on behalf of its clients who purchased 10 1/2% Senior Subordinated Notes issued in 1995 in connection with the leveraged recapitalization of Bruno’s, Inc. The case was filed in Alabama state court against Robinson Humphrey Co. LLC, which served as financial advisor to Bruno’s in connection with the leveraged recapitalization (and which later became a fully owned subsidiary of Salomon Smith Barney) and others. The KKR Case arises out of the same transaction at issue in 27001 PARTNERSHIP, ET AL. v. BT SECURITIES CORP., ET AL. (the “BT Securities Case” described above). The allegations and potential exposure in the KKR Case and BT Securities Case are similar, with plaintiffs seeking compensatory damages, punitive damages, attorneys’ fees, costs and pre-judgment interest in an amount they allege to be between approximately $250 million and $750 million. After years of motion practice over jurisdictional issues, on April 29, 2009, the Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit affirmed the District Court’s order allowing Huff to amend its complaint to substitute the same 46 individual noteholders named as plaintiffs in the BT Securities Case as plaintiffs in the KKR Case, resulting in remand of the case to Alabama state court. Defendants’ motion to strike the Fourth Amended Complaint and plaintiffs’ motion to consolidate the BT Securities and KKR Cases are pending. On August 6, 2009, the Circuit Court of Jefferson County, Alabama granted defendant Robinson Humphrey Co. LLC’s motion to strike the Fourth Amended Complaint on statute of limitations grounds, thereby dismissing Robinson Humphrey Co. LLC from the case. On August 25, 2009, the case was consolidated with 27001 PARTNERSHIP for discovery purposes but not for trial. In January 2010, prior to trial, the Citigroup defendants entered into a settlement conditioned on court approval.

Terra Securities ASA Konkursbo, et al. v. Citigroup Inc., et al. On August 10, 2009, Norwegian securities firm Terra Securities ASA Konkursbo and seven Norwegian municipalities filed a complaint in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York against Citigroup, CGM and Citigroup Alternative Investments LLC. The complaint asserts, among other things, claims for fraud and negligent misrepresentation as well as claims under Sections 10 and 20 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 arising out of the municipalities’ purchase of fund-linked notes acquired from the now-defunct securities firm, Terra Securities, which in turn acquired those notes from Citigroup. Plaintiffs seek approximately $120 million in compensatory damages, plus punitive damages. Plaintiffs allege that, among other things, the municipalities invested in the notes after receiving purportedly false and materially misleading marketing materials that were allegedly prepared by defendants. On October 7, 2009, defendants filed a motion to dismiss. Defendants’ motion for summary judgment is pending.

Tribune Company Bankruptcy. Certain Citigroup entities have been named as defendants in adversary proceedings related to the Chapter 11 cases of Tribune Company (Tribune) pending in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware. The complaints set forth allegations arising out of the approximately $11 billion leveraged buyout (“LBO”) of Tribune in 2007. With respect to Citigroup, the complaints allege claims relating to Citigroup’s role as lender and advisor to Tribune in connection with the LBO and seek to avoid, recover, subordinate or disallow payments on LBO debt, as well as approximately $57 million in lender and advisory fees received by Citigroup and certain of its subsidiaries in connection with the LBO. The complaints also assert claims of aiding and abetting breaches of fiduciary duty by Tribune management as well as professional malpractice. The complaints have been stayed by court order pending a confirmation hearing on competing plans of reorganization. If confirmed, the plan proposed by the Debtors and others, and supported by Citigroup, would settle all claims relating to Citigroup’s role as lender. On February 11, 2011, Tribune Company and its debtor subsidiaries announced that most classes of voting creditors overwhelmingly approved the Debtors’ plan. The confirmation hearing before the Bankruptcy Court commenced on March 8, 2011. The parties completed their evidentiary presentations on April 12, 2011. The Bankruptcy Court confirmation hearing concluded on June 27, 2011. On October 31, 2011, the bankruptcy court denied confirmation of both the competing plans. A third amended plan of reorganization was then proposed, and confirmation proceedings are expected to take place in 2012. On July 13, 2012, following a confirmation hearing in June on the fourth amended plan of reorganization, the court issued an order overruling objections to the plan and stating that, subject to revisions consistent with the order, the plan would be confirmed. On July 23, 2012, the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware confirmed the Fourth Amended Joint Plan of Reorganization, which provides for releases of claims against Citigroup, other than those against CGM relating to its role as advisor to Tribune. Certain parties are appealing that decision.

Asset Repurchase Matters. Beginning in March 2010, various regulators have made inquiries regarding the accounting treatment of certain repurchase transactions. Citigroup is cooperating fully with these inquiries.

Interbank Offered Rates-Related Litigation and Other Matters

Regulatory Actions. Government agencies in the U.S., including the Department of Justice, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, the SEC, and a consortium of state attorneys general, as well as agencies in other jurisdictions, including the European Commission, the U.K. Financial Services Authority, the Japanese Financial Services Agency (“JFSA”), the Canadian Competition Bureau, the Swiss Competition Commission, and the Monetary Authority of Singapore, are conducting investigations or making inquiries regarding submissions made by panel banks to bodies that publish various interbank offered rates and other benchmark rates. As members of a number of such panels, Citigroup subsidiaries have received requests for information and documents. Citigroup is cooperating with the investigations and inquiries and is responding to the requests.

On December 16, 2011, the JFSA took administrative action against Citigroup Global Markets Japan Inc. (“CGMJ”) for, among other things, certain communications made by two CGMJ traders about the Euroyen Tokyo interbank offered rate (“TIBOR”) and the Japanese yen London interbank offered rate (“LIBOR”). The JFSA issued a business improvement order and suspended CGMJ’s trading in derivatives related to yen LIBOR and Euroyen and yen TIBOR from January 10 to January 23, 2012. On the same day, the JFSA also took administrative action against Citibank Japan Ltd. (“CJL”) for conduct arising out of CJL’s retail business and also noted that the communications made by the CGMJ traders to employees of CJL about Euroyen TIBOR had not been properly reported to CJL’s management team.

Additionally, beginning in April 2011, a number of purported class actions and other private civil suits were filed in various courts against banks that served on the LIBOR panel and their affiliates, including certain Citigroup subsidiaries. The actions, which assert various federal and state law claims relating to the setting of LIBOR, have been consolidated into a multidistrict litigation proceeding before Judge Buchwald in the Southern District of New York. On February 9, 2012, an additional alleged class action was filed against certain of the banks that served on the LIBOR panel, including a Citigroup subsidiary. That action has been consolidated into the multi district litigation proceeding before Judge Buchwald in the Southern District of New York. A number of additional alleged class actions were filed in the Southern District of New York against banks that served on certain interbank offered rates panels and certain of those banks’ affiliates, including Citigroup affiliates.

Antitrust and Other Litigation. Citigroup and Citibank, N.A., along with other U.S. Dollar (USD) LIBOR panel banks, are defendants in the multidistrict-litigation (“MDL”) proceeding before Judge Buchwald in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York captioned IN RE LIBOR-BASED FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS ANTITRUST LITIGATION, appearing under docket number 1:11-md-2262 (S.D.N.Y.). Judge Buchwald has appointed interim lead class counsel for, and consolidated amended complaints have been filed on behalf of, three separate alleged classes of plaintiffs: (i) over-the-counter (“OTC”) purchasers of derivative instruments tied to USD LIBOR; (ii) purchasers of exchange-traded derivative instruments tied to USD LIBOR; and (iii) indirect OTC purchasers of U.S. debt securities. Each of these alleged classes alleges that the panel bank defendants conspired to suppress USD LIBOR in violation of the Sherman Act and/or the Commodity Exchange Act, thereby causing plaintiffs to suffer losses on the instruments they purchased. Also consolidated into the MDL

proceeding are individual civil actions commenced by various Charles Schwab entities alleging that the panel bank defendants conspired to suppress the USD LIBOR rates in violation of the Sherman Act, the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act (“RICO”), and California state law, causing the Schwab entities to suffer losses on USD LIBOR-linked financial instruments they owned. Plaintiffs in these actions seek compensatory damages and restitution for losses caused by the alleged violations, as well as treble damages under the Sherman Act. The Schwab and OTC plaintiffs also seek injunctive relief.

Citigroup and Citibank, N.A., along with other defendants, have moved to dismiss all of the above actions that were consolidated into the MDL proceeding as of June 29, 2012. Briefing on the motion to dismiss was completed on September 27, 2012. Judge Buchwald has stayed all subsequently filed actions that fall within the scope of the MDL until the motion to dismiss has been resolved. Citigroup and/or Citibank, N.A. are named in the 17 such stayed actions that have been consolidated with or marked as related to the MDL proceeding.

Eleven of these actions have been brought on behalf of various alleged plaintiff classes, including (i) banks, savings and loans institutions and credit unions that allegedly suffered losses on loans they made at interest rates tied to USD LIBOR, (ii) holders of adjustable-rate mortgages tied to USD LIBOR, and (iii) individual and municipal purchasers of various financial instruments tied to USD LIBOR. The remaining six actions have been brought by individual plaintiffs, including an entity that allegedly purchased municipal bonds and various California counties, municipalities, and related public entities that invested in various derivatives tied to USD LIBOR. Plaintiffs in each of the 17 stayed actions allege that the panel bank defendants manipulated USD LIBOR in violation of the Sherman Act, RICO, and/or state antitrust and racketeering laws, and several plaintiffs also assert common law claims, including fraud, unjust enrichment, negligent misrepresentation, interference with economic advantage, and/or breach of the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing. Plaintiffs seek compensatory damages and, where authorized by statute, treble damages and injunctive relief.

In addition, on August 8, 2012, a new alleged class action captioned LIEBERMAN ET AL. V. CREDIT SUISSE GROUP AG was filed in the Southern District of New York against various USD LIBOR panel banks, including Citibank, on behalf of purchasers who owned a preferred equity security on which dividends were payable at a rate linked to USD LIBOR. Plaintiffs in this action assert unjust enrichment and antitrust claims under the laws of various states, alleging that the panel banks colluded to artificially suppress USD LIBOR, thereby lowering the dividends plaintiffs received on their securities. On October 4, 2012, another new alleged class action captioned ADAMS ET AL. V. BANK OF AMERICA CORP. was filed in the Southern District of New York against various USD LIBOR panel banks and their affiliates, including Citigroup and Citibank, N.A., on behalf of an alleged class of individual adjustable rate mortgage borrowers. Plaintiffs allege that the panel banks manipulated USD LIBOR to raise rates on certain dates in order to increase plaintiffs’ payment obligations, in violation of federal and New York state antitrust law.

The plaintiffs in these actions seek compensatory damages, treble damages, and injunctive relief. Judge Buchwald has consolidated these cases into the MDL proceeding.

In addition, on November 27, 2012, an action captioned MARAGOS V. BANK OF AMERICA CORP. ET AL. was filed on behalf of the County of Nassau against various USD LIBOR panel banks, including Citibank, N.A., and the other defendants with whom the plaintiff had entered into interest rate swap transactions. The action was commenced in state court and subsequently removed to the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York. The plaintiff asserts claims for fraud and deceptive trade practices under New York law against the panel bank defendants based on allegations that the panel banks colluded to artificially suppress USD LIBOR, thereby lowering the payments the plaintiff received in connection with various interest rate swap transactions. The plaintiff seeks compensatory damages and treble damages. The defendants have sought consolidation of this action with the MDL proceeding.

Separately, on April 30, 2012, an action was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York on behalf of an alleged class of persons and entities who transacted in exchange-traded Euroyen futures and option contracts between June 2006 and September 2010. This action is captioned LAYDON V. MIZUHO BANK LTD. ET AL. The complaint names as defendants banks that are or were members of the panels making submissions used in the calculation of Japanese Yen LIBOR and the Tokyo Inter-Bank Offered Rate (TIBOR), and certain affiliates of some of those banks, including Citibank, N.A. and Citibank, Japan Ltd. The complaint alleges that the plaintiffs were injured as a result of purported manipulation of those reference interest rates, and asserts claims arising under the Commodity Exchange Act, the Sherman Act, and state consumer protection statutes. Plaintiffs seek compensatory damages, treble damages under the Sherman Act, and injunctive relief. The plaintiff filed an amended complaint on November 30, 2012, naming as defendants banks that are or were members of the panels making submissions used in the calculation of Japanese yen LIBOR and TIBOR, and certain affiliates of some of those banks, including Citibank, N.A., Citigroup, CJL and CGMJ. The complaint alleges that the plaintiffs were injured as a result of purported manipulation of those reference interest rates, and asserts claims arising under the Commodity Exchange Act and the Sherman Act and for unjust enrichment. Plaintiffs seek compensatory damages, treble damages under the Sherman Act, and injunctive relief.

Settlement Payments

Any payments required by Citigroup or its affiliates in connection with the settlement agreements described above have been made or are covered by existing litigation reserves.

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.

Additional lawsuits containing claims similar to those described above may be filed in the future. 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. CGM may establish reserves from time to time in connections with such actions.

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

Overview

The Partnership, through its investment in the Master, seeks to achieve capital appreciation through speculative trading, directly or indirectly, in commodity interests, including commodity futures and commodity option contracts traded on United States exchanges and certain foreign exchanges and swaps. The Partnership, through its investment in the Master, intends to trade only energy and energy-related products, grains, indices, lumber and softs, as well as the Goldman Sachs Commodity Index (an index future comprised of energy and other products), traded on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange, but is authorized to trade commodity futures, swaps and options contracts of any kind. The Partnership has invested substantially all of its capital in the Master. The Advisor is authorized to trade forward contracts on behalf of the Partnership and the Master but does not currently intend to do so (certain swaps that the Advisor trades are, however, the substantial economic equivalent of forward contracts).

The General Partner/Managing Member manages all business of the Partnership/Master. The General Partner has delegated its responsibility for the investment of the Partnership’s assets to the Advisor. The Partnership has invested these assets in the Master. The General Partner employs a team of approximately 37 professionals whose primary emphasis is on attempting to maintain quality control among the advisors to the funds operated or managed by the General Partner. A full-time staff of due diligence professionals uses proprietary technology and on-site evaluations to monitor new and existing futures money managers. The accounting and operations staff provides processing of subscriptions and redemptions and reporting to limited partners and regulatory authorities. The General Partner also includes staff involved in marketing and sales support. In selecting the Advisor for the Partnership/Master, the General Partner considered past performance, trading style, volatility of markets traded and fee requirements.

Responsibilities of the General Partner/Managing Member 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/Managing Member 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/Master. 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; assistance in connection with redemptions and limited partner communications; and preparation of offering documents and sales literature.

While the Partnership and the Master have the right to seek lower commission rates from other commodity brokers at any time, the General Partner/Managing Member believes that the customer agreements and other arrangements with the commodity broker are fair, reasonable, and competitive.

AAA Capital Management Advisors, Ltd.

The Partnership’s assets allocated to the Advisor for trading are not invested in commodity interests directly. The Advisor’s allocation of the Partnership’s assets is currently invested in the Master. The Advisor trades the Master’s, and thereby the Partnership’s, assets in accordance with its Energy Program — Futures and Swaps.

The Master currently trades energy futures contracts and options on energy futures contracts on domestic and international exchanges, as well as the Goldman Sachs Commodity Index (an index future comprised of energy and other products) traded on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange. The Master also currently engages in swap transactions involving crude oil and other energy-related products. References herein to energy and energy related products include all of the foregoing.

The Advisor generally bases its trading decisions on “fundamental” factors, namely supply and demand for a particular group or type of commodity. The Advisor attempts to buy undervalued commodities and sell overvalued commodities, often but not always simultaneously. The Advisor uses options to attempt either to reduce or define risks.

The Advisor is aware of price trends but does not trade upon trends. The Advisor often takes profits in positions with specific trends even though that trend may still be intact or perhaps even strong. The Advisor occasionally establishes positions that are countertrend.

Effective risk management is a crucial aspect of the Advisor’s trading program. Account size, expectation, volatility of the market traded and the nature of other positions taken are all factors in determining the amount of equity committed to each trade. The Master is the Advisor’s largest account.

(a) Liquidity.

The Partnership does not engage in sales of goods or services. Its only assets are its investment in the Master and cash. The Master does not engage in the sale of goods or services. The Master’s only assets are its equity in its trading accounts, consisting of cash and cash equivalents, net unrealized appreciation on open futures contracts and net unrealized appreciation on forward contracts, options and swaps, if applicable. Because of the low margin deposits normally required in commodity trading, relatively small price movements may result in substantial losses to the Partnership, through its investment in the Master. While substantial losses could lead to a material decrease in liquidity, no such illiquidity occurred during the year ended December 31, 2012.

To minimize the risk relating to low margin deposits, the Master follows certain trading policies, including:

(i)

The Master 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 Master’s net assets allocated to the Advisor.

(iii)

The Master may occasionally accept delivery of a commodity. Unless such delivery is disposed of promptly by retendering the warehouse receipt representing the delivery to the appropriate clearinghouse, the physical commodity position is fully hedged.

(iv)

The Master 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 Master does not utilize borrowings other than short-term borrowings if the Master 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 Master. “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 Master will not permit the churning of its commodity trading account. The term “churning” refers to the practice of entering and exiting trades with a frequency unwarranted by legitimate efforts to profit from the trades, driven by the desire to generate commission income.

From January 1, 2012 through December 31, 2012, the Partnership’s average margin to equity ratio (i.e., the percentage of assets on deposit required for margin) was approximately 6.4%. The foregoing margin to equity ratio takes into account cash held in the Partnership’s name, as well as the allocable value of the positions and cash held on behalf of the Partnership in the name of the Master.

In the normal course of business, the Partnership, through its investment in the Master, is party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk, including derivative financial instruments and derivative commodity instruments. These financial instruments include forwards, futures, options and swaps, whose values are based upon an underlying asset, index or reference rate, and generally represent future commitments to exchange currencies or cash balances, or to purchase or sell other financial instruments at specified terms at specified future dates, or, in the case of derivative commodity interests, 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 forward and option contracts. OTC contracts are negotiated between contracting parties and include certain forward, swaps and option contracts. Specific market movements of the commodities or futures contracts underlying an option cannot accurately be predicted. The purchaser of an option may lose the entire premium paid for the option. The writer, or seller, of an option has unlimited risk. 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 Redeemable Units is limited to the amount of their share of the Partnership’s net assets and undistributed profits. This limited liability is a result of the organization of the Partnership as a limited partnership under New York law.

Market risk is the potential for changes in the value of the financial instruments traded by the Partnership/Master due to market changes, including interest and foreign exchange rate movements and fluctuations in commodity or security prices. Market risk is directly impacted by the volatility and liquidity in the markets in which the related underlying assets are traded by the Partnership/Master. The Partnership/Master 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/Master’s risk of loss in the event of a counterparty default is typically limited to the amounts recognized in the Statements of Financial Condition and not represented by the contract or notional amounts of the instruments. The Partnership’s/Master’s risk of loss is reduced through the use of legally enforceable master netting agreements with counterparties that permit the Partnership/Master to offset unrealized gains and losses and other assets and liabilities with such counterparties upon the occurrence of certain events. The Partnership/Master has credit risk and concentration risk as CGM or a CGM affiliate is the sole counterparty or broker with respect to the Partnership’s/Master’s assets. Credit risk with respect to exchange-traded instruments is reduced to the extent that through CGM, the Partnership’s/Master’s counterparty is an exchange or clearing organization.

The Advisor will concentrate the Partnership’s/Master’s trading in energy-related markets. Concentration in a limited number of commodity interests may subject the Partnership’s/Master’s account to greater volatility than if a more diversified portfolio of contracts were traded on behalf of the Partnership/Master.

As both a buyer and seller of options, the Master 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/Master 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/Master does not consider these contracts to be guarantees.

The General Partner/Managing Member monitors and attempts to control the Partnership’s/Master’s risk exposure on a daily basis through financial, credit and risk management monitoring systems, and accordingly, believes that it has effective procedures for evaluating and limiting the credit and market risks to which the Partnership/Master may be subject. These monitoring systems generally allow the General Partner/Managing Member to statistically analyze actual trading results with risk adjusted performance indicators and correlation statistics. In addition, online monitoring systems provide account analysis of futures, exchange - cleared swaps, forwards and options positions 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 financial statements.)

Other than the risks inherent in commodity futures, forwards, options and swaps trading, the Master knows of no trends, demands, commitments, events or uncertainties which will result in or which reasonably likely to result in the Master’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, commissions and advisory 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 three business days’ notice to the General Partner. There is no fee charged to limited partners in connection with redemptions. Redemptions generally are funded out of the Partnership’s cash holdings. For the year ended December 31, 2012, 3,931.9621 Redeemable Units were redeemed totaling $40,442,418 and 59.5110 General Partner unit equivalents were redeemed totaling $600,807. For the year ended December 31, 2011, 4,862.4076 Redeemable Units were redeemed totaling $49,641,472 and 24.1950 General Partner unit equivalents were redeemed totaling $250,000. For the year ended December 31, 2010, 2,871.0299 Redeemable Units were redeemed totaling $29,872,324 and 49.7338 General Partner unit equivalents were redeemed totaling $524,997.

Redeemable Units were sold to persons and entities who are accredited investors as that term is defined in rule 501(a) of Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

For the year ended December 31, 2012 the net asset value per unit decreased 2.4% from $10,524.14 to $10,271.31. For the year ended December 31, 2011 the net asset value per unit increased 3.5% from $10,172.06 to $10,524.14. For the year ended December 31, 2010 the net asset value per unit decreased 7.5% from $10,996.34 to $10,172.06.

The Partnership, through its investment in the Master, experienced a net trading gain of $1,829,638 before brokerage commissions and related fees for the year ended December 31, 2012. Gains were primarily attributable to the trading of commodity futures in NYMEX Energy Swaps, IPE Gas Oil, NYMEX Gasoline, NYMEX Heating Oil, NYMEX Natural Gas, Corn and Lumber and were partially offset by losses in Brent Crude Oil, NYMEX Crude Oil, Softs and Indices. The net trading gain (or loss) realized from the Partnership’s investment in the Master is disclosed on page 41 under “Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.”

The most significant losses were incurred within the energies complex during October from short exposure in RBOB gasoline as prices fell due to lower crude oil prices amidst concerns over weakening global demand. Further losses were incurred during April and May from a net long exposure to crude oil as prices moved lower given concerns about the Eurozone and the overall health of the global economy. Further losses were incurred during May from long futures positions in RBOB gasoline as prices fell due to a weakening global economy and a general sell-off of “risk assets” throughout global markets. Losses were also incurred in May from long call options positions in West Texas Intermediate (“WTI”) crude oil as volatility declined despite the drop in crude oil prices. The Partnership also incurred losses during February from short futures positions in Brent crude oil as potential supply disruptions from Iran helped push prices higher. Further losses were incurred from short call options in Brent crude oil as prices rallied during January and February which also detracted from performance. Short futures positions in Light Sweet crude oil incurred smaller losses during February as prices strengthened on potential supply disruptions and an expected increase in demand. The Partnership’s losses for the year were offset by trading gains in energies during August from long futures and options positions in RBOB gasoline as prices rallied during the end of the summer months when demand is at its highest. Gains were also recorded in July as long futures and options positions in RBOB gasoline benefited from rallying crude oil prices due to unrest in the Middle East. Further gains were recorded in August from short futures positions in natural gas as prices declined as mild temperatures throughout the U.S. help to weaken demand for the commodity. Smaller gains were recorded during May from long call options positions in natural gas as prices rallied given concerns over warmer-than-expected weather forecasts in May and for June. Small gains were also recorded from futures and options positions in the S&P 500 Index as prices declined during May given concerns over slowing growth in the United States.

The Partnership, through its investment in the Master, experienced a net trading gain of $13,476,588 before brokerage commissions and related fees for the year ended December 31, 2011. Gains were primarily attributable to the trading of commodity futures in Brent Crude Oil, NYMEX Crude Oil, IPE Gas Oil and Lumber and were partially offset by losses in NYMEX Energy Swaps, NYMEX Gasoline, NYMEX Heating Oil, NYMEX Natural Gas, Corn, Softs and Indices.

The most significant gains in 2011 were recorded from short futures positions in Brent Crude Oil during December as increased volatility in the beginning of the month due to concerns about the Eurozone saw Brent prices fall intra-month to $102.46 a barrel, thus benefiting the Partnership’s net short positions. Further gains were recorded from long futures and options positions in WTI crude oil during December as prices rallied significantly during the latter half of the month as concerns over lower supplies outweighed lower domestic demand, thus pushing prices higher. Further gains were recorded in July and September from long futures and options positions in WTI crude oil as increased volatility due to the ongoing political contagion in the Middle East and the uncertainty regarding the U.S. debt ceiling helped to generate gains. The Partnership also recorded gains during August and September as short futures positions in Brent crude oil profited as weaker global demand and concerns regarding the Greek debt crisis pushed prices lower. Gains were also recorded in WTI crude oil futures and options during March as prices rallied given the tsunami earthquake and subsequent nuclear power plant disaster in Japan, as well as the spreading political instability in the Middle East. The Partnership also recorded profits from long futures positions in heating oil during January and February as a colder-than-expected winter throughout the United States helped to push prices higher. Further gains were recorded from long futures positions in heating oil during August as increased demand for refined products helped push prices higher. A portion of the Partnership’s gains for the year was offset by losses in RBOB gasoline and gasoil futures and options. The largest losses were incurred from long futures positions in RBOB gasoline as prices declined in May due to weaker domestic demand, thus negatively impact the Partnership’s positions. Further losses were incurred from long futures positions in RBOB gasoline during September as prices declined amid weaker domestic demand heading into the winter. Lastly, losses were incurred from long futures positions in gasoil as concerns over weakening domestic consumption occurred in May, thus forcing prices lower.

Interest income on 80% of the Partnership’s average daily equity allocated to it by the Master was earned at a 30-day U.S. Treasury bill rate determined weekly by CGM based on the average non-competitive yield on 3-month U.S. Treasury bills maturing in 30 days. Interest income allocated from the Master for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2012 increased by $22,990 and $16,564, respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2011. The increase in interest income is primarily due to higher U.S. Treasury bill rates for the Partnership during the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2012, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2011. Interest earned by the Partnership increases the net asset value of the Partnership.

Brokerage commissions are based on the number of trades executed by the Advisor and the Partnership’s ownership percentage of the Master. Brokerage commissions for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2012 increased by $53,071 and $30,439, respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2011. The increase in brokerage commissions is primarily due to an increase in the number of trades during the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2012 as compared to the corresponding periods in 2011.

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 and redemptions. Management fees for the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2012 decreased by $204,792 and $792,996, respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2011. The decrease in management fees is due to a decrease in average net assets during the three and twelve months ended December 31, 2012 as compared to the corresponding periods in 2011.

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 agreement 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, 2012 and 2011. The Advisor will not be allocated a profit share 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, 2012 and 2011 were $89,797 and $69,836, respectively.

The Partnership pays other expenses, which generally include filing, reporting and data processing fees. Other expenses for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 were $36,207 and $42,869, respectively.

The Partnership, through its investment in the Master, experienced a net trading loss of $10,999,130 before brokerage commissions and related fees for the year ended December 31, 2010. Losses were primarily attributable to the trading of commodity futures in NYMEX Crude Oil, NYMEX Natural Gas and Brent Crude Oil and were partially offset by gains in NYMEX Energy Swaps, NYMEX Heating Oil, NYMEX Gasoline, Unleaded Gasoline, IPE Gas Oil and Lumber.

The Partnership had a difficult time as the changes in the Natural Gas markets were seismic in their scope and with respect to trading throughout the curve. Despite the difficulties in Natural Gas; Crude Oil and refined products performed well throughout the latter half of 2010 to absorb some of the losses in the Natural Gas portfolio. Crude Oil in general tended to trade like a financial asset for the majority of 2010 as it was highly correlated with Gold as two ways to play a falling U.S. dollar and weak global equity prices. This made trading more difficult as it increased crude oil’s volatility and overshadowed fundamental factors. Overall, profits were made in Crude as well as most of the refined products such as Heating Oil, Gasoil and RBOB (Gasoline) throughout the second half of the year. The Partnership in general was traded much more dynamically as positions were held for shorter periods of time and trading was very diversified across directional, spread, calendar and volatility positions, which helped performance. Natural Gas trading became more directional in nature during the second half of the year as the traditional calendar and spread trading opportunities that persisted in the market were not very compelling and the movements in the market were extremely volatile. The shift in trading style and the ability to diversify their Natural Gas exposure across all sub-strategies was beneficial to performance as longer-term positioning in Natural Gas was extremely difficult. Despite these changes the exposure of the portfolio is still expressed throughout the front-end and the back end of the curve with a majority of the exposure within the first 36 months. Gains in the back end of the curve were modest throughout the year and the shift to more near-term opportunities is something that will be consistent in the Fund’s Natural Gas portfolio.

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 Master and the Partnership depends on the Advisor’s ability to forecast changes in energy and energy-related commodities. Such price changes are influenced by, among other things, changing supply and demand relationships, weather, governmental, agricultural, commercial and trade programs and policies, national and international political and economic events and changes in interest rates. To the extent that the Advisor correctly makes such forecasts, the Master and the Partnership expect to increase capital through operations.

In allocating substantially all of the assets of the Partnership to the Master, the General Partner considered the Advisor’s past performance, trading style, volatility of markets traded and fee requirements. The General Partner may modify or terminate the allocation of assets to the Advisor at any time. The Advisor’s trading program is described in the “Overview” section of this Item 7.

(d) Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements. None.

(e) Contractual Obligations. None.

(f) Operational Risk.

The Partnership, through its investment in the Master, 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/Master is subject to increased risks with respect to their 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/Master’s ability to gather, process, and communicate information efficiently and securely, without interruption, to customers and in the markets where the Partnership/Master participates. Additionally, the General Partner’s computer systems may be vulnerable to unauthorized access, mishandling or misuse, computer viruses or malware, cyber attacks and other events that could have a security impact on such systems. If one or more of such events occur, this potentially could jeopardize a limited partner’s personal, confidential, proprietary or other information processed and stored in, and transmitted through, the General Partner’s computer systems, and adversely affect the Partnership’s business, financial condition or results of operations.

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 non-compliance 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. The Partnership values its investment in the Master at its net asset value per unit as calculated by the Master. The Master values its investments as described in Note 2 of the Master’s notes to the annual financial statements as of December 31, 2012.

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

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

The Partnership will separately present purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements in its reconciliation of Level 3 fair value measurements (i.e., to present such items on a gross basis rather than on a net basis), and makes 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.

Effective January 1, 2012, the Partnership adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2011-04, “Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”).” The amendments within this ASU change the wording used to describe many of the GAAP requirements for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements to eliminate unnecessary wording differences between GAAP and IFRS. However, some of the amendments clarify the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (the “FASB”) intent about the application of existing fair value measurement requirements and other amendments change a particular principle or requirement for measuring fair value or for disclosing information about fair value measurements. This new guidance did not have a significant impact on the Partnership’s/Master’s financial statements.

The Partnership values investments in the Master where there are no other rights or obligations inherent within the ownership interest held by the Partnership based on the end of the day net asset value of the Master (Level 2). The value of the Partnership’s investment in the Master reflects its proportional interest in the Master. As of and for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Partnership did not hold any derivative instruments that are based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities (Level 1) or priced at fair value using unobservable inputs through the application of management’s assumptions and internal valuation pricing models (Level 3). During the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, there were no transfers of assets or liabilities between Level 1 and Level 2.

The Master considers prices for exchange-traded commodity futures, forwards and options contracts to be based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities (Level 1). The values of non exchange-traded forwards, swaps and certain options contracts for which market quotations are not readily available are priced by broker-dealers who derive fair values for those assets and liabilities from observable inputs (Level 2). As of and for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Master did not hold any derivative instruments for which market quotations are not readily available and which were priced by broker-dealers who derive fair values for those assets and liabilities from observable inputs (Level 2) or that are priced at fair value using unobservable inputs through the application of management’s assumptions and internal valuation pricing models (Level 3). During the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, there were no transfers of assets or liabilities between Level 1 and Level 2.

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

Options. The Master 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 Master writes an option, the premium received is recorded as a liability in the Statements of Financial Condition and marked to market daily. When the Master purchases an option, the premium paid is recorded as an asset in the Statements of Financial Condition and marked to market daily. Net realized gains (losses) and changes in net unrealized gains (losses) on options contracts are included in the Statements of Income and Expenses.

Brokerage Commissions. Commission charges to open and close futures and exchange-traded swap contracts are expensed at the time the positions are opened. Commission charges on option contracts are expensed at the time the position is established and when the option contract is closed.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

The Master is a speculative commodity pool. The market sensitive instruments held by the Master are acquired for speculative trading purposes, and all or substantially all of the Partnership’s assets are subject to the risk of trading loss through its investment in the Master. Unlike an operating company, the risk of market sensitive instruments is integral, not incidental, to the Master’s and the Partnership’s main line of business.

The risk to the limited partners that have purchased Redeemable Units in the Partnership is limited to the amount of their share of the Partnership’s net assets and undistributed profits. This limited liability is a result of the organization of the Partnership as a limited partnership under New York law.

Market movements result in frequent changes in the fair market value of the Master’s open positions and, consequently, in its earnings and cash flow. The Master’s and 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 results among the Master’s open positions and the liquidity of the markets in which it trades.

The Master rapidly acquires and liquidates both long and short positions in a wide range of different markets. Consequently, it is not possible to predict how a particular future market scenario will affect performance, and the Master’s past performance is not necessarily indicative of its future results.

“Value at Risk” is a measure of the maximum amount which the Master could reasonably be expected to lose in a given market sector. However, the inherent uncertainty of the Master’s speculative trading and the recurrence in the markets traded by the Master of market movements far exceeding expectations could result in actual trading or non-trading losses far beyond the indicated Value at Risk or the Master’s experience to date (i.e., “risk of ruin”). In light of the foregoing as well as the risks and uncertainties intrinsic to all future projections, the inclusion of the quantification included in this section should not be considered to constitute any assurance or representation that the Master’s losses in any market sector will be limited to Value at Risk or by the Master’s attempts to manage its market risk.

Quantifying the Partnership’s Trading Value at Risk

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

Exchange maintenance margin requirements have been used by the Master as the measure of its Value at Risk. Maintenance margin requirements are set by exchanges to equal or exceed the maximum losses reasonably expected to be incurred in the fair value of any given contract in 95%-99% of any one-day intervals. The 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. The maintenance margin levels are established by dealers and exchanges using historical price studies as well as an assessment of current market volatility (including the implied volatility of the options on a given futures contract) and economic fundamentals to provide a probabilistic estimate of the maximum expected near-term one-day price fluctuation. Maintenance margin has been used rather than the more generally available initial margin, because initial margin includes a credit risk component which is not relevant to Value at Risk.

In the case of market sensitive instruments which are not exchange-traded, 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 Master’s futures and forward positions does not have any optionality component. However, the Advisor does 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 has been used, 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 Master in almost all cases fluctuate to a lesser extent than those of the underlying instruments.

In quantifying the Master’s Value at Risk, 100% positive correlation in the different positions held in each market risk category has been assumed. Consequently, the margin requirements applicable to the open contracts have simply been added to determine each trading category’s aggregate Value at Risk. The diversification effects resulting from the fact that the Master’s positions are rarely, if ever, 100% positively correlated have not been reflected.

The Master’s Trading Value at Risk in Different Market Sectors

Value at Risk tables represent a probabilistic assessment of the risk of loss in market risk sensitive instruments. The following tables indicate the trading Value at Risk associated with the Master’s open positions by market category as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the highest, lowest and average value at any point during the years. All open position trading risk exposures of the Master have been included in calculating the figures set forth below. As of December 31, 2012, the Master’s total capitalization was $842,758,153 and the Partnership owned approximately 17.3% of the Master. The Partnership invests substantially all of its assets in the Master. The Master’s Value at Risk as of December 31, 2012 was as follows:


	December 31, 2012

Market Sector	Value at Risk		% of Total Capitalization			High Value at Risk		Low Value at Risk		Average Value at Risk*
Energy	$	67,136,658		7.97	%	$	100,293,042	$	23,853,865	$	55,116,054

Total	$	67,136,658		7.97	%

*	Annual average month-end Values at Risk.

As of December 31, 2011, the Master’s total capitalization was $976,510,592 and the Partnership owned approximately 19.9% of the Master. The Partnership invests substantially all of its asset in the Master. The Master’s Value at Risk as of December 31, 2011 was as follows:


	December 31, 2011

Market Sector	Value at Risk		% of Total Capitalization			High Value at Risk		Low Value at Risk		Average Value at Risk*
Energy	$	55,102,501		5.64	%	$	94,389,860	$	26,234,892	$	59,052,953

Total	$	58,938,829		6.04	%

*	Annual average month-end Values at Risk.

Material Limitations on Value at Risk as an Assessment of Market Risk

The face value of the market sector instruments held by the Master is typically many times the applicable margin requirement (margin requirements generally range between 2% and 15% of contract face value, although an exchange may increase margin requirements on short notice) as well as many times the capitalization of the Master. The magnitude of the Master’s open positions creates a “risk of ruin” not typically found in most other investment vehicles. Because of the size of its positions, certain market conditions — unusual, but historically recurring from time to time — could cause the Master to incur severe losses over a short period of time. The foregoing Value at Risk tables — as well as the past performance of the Partnership — give no indication of this “risk of ruin.”

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 Master’s market sensitive instruments.

Qualitative Disclosures Regarding Primary Trading Risk Exposures

The following qualitative disclosures regarding the Master’s market risk exposures — except for (i) those disclosures that are statements of historical fact and (ii) the descriptions of how the Master manages its primary market risk exposures — constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. The Master’s primary market risk exposures, as well as the strategies used and to be used by the General Partner and the Advisor for managing such exposures, are subject to numerous uncertainties, contingencies and risks, any one of which could cause the actual results of the Master’s risk control 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 Master. There can be no assurance that the Master’s current market exposure and/or risk management strategies will not change materially or that any such strategies will be effective in either the short or long term. Investors must be prepared to lose all or substantially all of their investment in the Partnership.

The following were the primary trading risk exposures of the Master as of December 31, 2012 by market sector.

Energy. Energy-related products, such as crude oil, heating oil, gasoline and natural gas, constitute the principal market exposure of the Master. The Master has substantial market exposure to gas and oil price movements, often resulting from political developments in the Middle East. Political developments in other countries or regions can also materially impact upon the prices of energy products, as could changing supply and demand relationships, weather, governmental, commercial and trade programs and policies, and other significant economic events. Energy prices can be volatile and substantial profits and losses have been and are expected to continue to be experienced in these markets.

The Master engages in swap transactions in crude oil and other energy-related products. In this connection, the Master contracts with its counterparty to exchange a stream of payments computed by reference to a notional amount and the price of the energy product that is the subject of the swap. Swap contracts are not guaranteed by an exchange or clearinghouse. CGM does not engage in swap transactions as a principal.

The Master usually enters into swaps on a net basis, i.e., the two payment streams are netted out in a cash settlement on the payment date or dates specified in the agreement, with the Master receiving or paying, as the case may be, only the net amount of the two payments. Swaps do not involve the delivery of underlying assets or principal. Accordingly, the risk of loss with respect to swaps is limited to the net amount of payments that the Master is contractually obligated to make. If the counterparty to a swap defaults, the Master’s risk of loss consists of the net amount of payments that the Master is contractually entitled to receive.

The Master may also enter into spot transactions to purchase or sell commodities with CGM, or one of its affiliates, as principal. Such spot transactions provide for two-day settlement and are not margined. Such transactions may be entered into in connection with exchange for physical transactions. Like the swap contract market, the spot market is a principals’ market so there is no clearinghouse guarantee of performance. Instead, the Master is subject to the risk of inability of, or refusal by, a counterparty to perform with respect to the underlying contract.

Other Commodity Interests. The Master primarily emphasizes the trading of energy products, but may also trade some portion of its assets in other commodity interests, including, but not limited to, commodity interest contracts on the Goldman Sachs Commodity Index (an index future comprised primarily of energy products). Commodity interest prices can be affected by numerous factors, including political developments, weather conditions, seasonal effects and other factors which affect supply and demand for the underlying commodity.

Qualitative Disclosures Regarding Means of Managing Risk Exposure

The General Partner monitors and attempts to control the Partnership’s, through its investment in the Master, 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 Master may be subject.

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

The Advisor applies its own risk management policies to its trading. The Advisor often follows diversification guidelines, margin limits and stop loss points to exit a position. The Advisor’s research of risk management often suggests ongoing modifications to its trading programs.

As part of the General Partner’s risk management, the General Partner periodically meets with the Advisor to discuss its risk management and to look for any material changes to the Advisor’s portfolio balance and trading techniques. The Advisor is required to notify the General Partner of any material changes to its programs.

Management’s Report on Internal Control Over

Financial Reporting

The management of AAA Capital Energy 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 AAA Capital Energy Fund L.P. has assessed the effectiveness of the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012. 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. Based on our assessment, management concluded that the Partnership maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2012 based on the criteria referred to above.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Partners of

AAA Capital Energy Fund L.P.:

We have audited the accompanying statements of financial condition of AAA Capital Energy Fund L.P. (the “Partnership”), as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the related statements of income and expenses and changes in partners’ capital for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2012. 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.

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 financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of AAA Capital Energy Fund L.P. as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the results of its operations and its changes in partners’ capital for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2012, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 2012

1.	Partnership Organization:

AAA Capital Energy Fund L.P. (the “Partnership”) is a limited partnership organized on January 5, 1998 under the partnership laws of the State of New York to engage, directly or indirectly, in the speculative trading of a diversified portfolio of commodity interests, including commodity options and commodity futures contracts on U.S. exchanges and certain foreign exchanges. The Partnership, through its investment in the Master (defined herein), may trade commodity futures and options contracts of any kind. In addition, the Partnership, through its investment in the Master, may enter into swap contracts on energy-related products. The commodity interests that are traded by the Partnership, through its investment in the Master, are volatile and involve a high degree of market risk. During the initial offering period (February 12, 1998 through March 15, 1998), the Partnership sold 49,538 redeemable units of limited partnership interest (“Redeemable Units”). The Partnership commenced trading on March 16, 1998. From March 16, 1998 to August 31, 2001, the Partnership engaged directly in the speculative trading of a diversified portfolio of commodity interests. The Partnership no longer offers Redeemable Units for sale. During 2008, the Special Limited Partner (defined herein) donated 102 Redeemable Units to the limited partners.

On September 1, 2001, the Partnership allocated substantially all of its capital to AAA Master Fund LLC (the “Master”), a New York limited liability company. The Partnership purchased 128,539.1485 units of the Master with a fair value of $128,539,149 (including unrealized appreciation of $7,323,329). The Master was formed in order to permit commodity pools managed now or in the future by AAA Capital Management Advisors, Ltd. (the “Advisor”) using the Energy Program — Futures and Swaps, a proprietary, discretionary trading program, to invest together in one trading vehicle. In addition, the Advisor is a special limited partner (the “Special Limited Partner”) of the Partnership. Individual and pooled accounts currently managed by the Advisor, including the Partnership, are permitted to be members of the Master. The General Partner and the Advisor believe that trading through this master/feeder structure promotes efficiency and economy in the trading process. Expenses to investors as a result of the investment in the Master are approximately the same and redemption rights are not affected. The Master’s commodity broker is CGM and its managing member is CMF. The Master may trade commodity futures and options contracts of any kind, but trades solely energy, energy-related products, grains, indices, lumber and softs. In addition, the Master may enter into swap contracts. The commodity interests that are traded by the Master are volatile and involve a high degree of market risk.

The financial statements of the Master, including the Condensed Schedule of Investments, are included elsewhere in this report and should be read together with the Partnership’s financial statements.

At December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Partnership owned approximately 17.3% and 19.9%, respectively, of the Master. It is the Partnership’s intention to continue to invest substantially all of its assets in the Master. The performance of the Partnership is directly affected by the performance of the Master.

The General Partner and each limited partner share in the profits and losses of the Partnership, after the allocation to the Special Limited Partner, 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 its initial capital contribution and profits, if any, net of distributions.

AAA Capital Energy Fund L.P.

Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 2012

The Partnership will be liquidated upon the first to occur of the following: December 31, 2018; the net asset value per Redeemable Unit decreases to less than $400 per Redeemable Unit as of the close of any business day; or under certain other circumstances as defined in the limited partnership agreement of the Partnership (the “Limited Partnership Agreement”).

2.	Accounting Policies:

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.

Statement of Cash Flows. The Partnership is not required to provide a Statement of Cash Flows.

Partnership’s Investments. The Partnership values its investment in the Master at its net asset value per unit as calculated by the Master. The Master values its investments as described in Note 2, “Accounting Policies”, on the attached Master’s financial statements.

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 falls in its entirety shall be determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.

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

Effective January 1, 2012, the Partnership adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2011-04, “Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards [(“IFRS”)].” The amendments within this ASU change the wording used to describe many of the GAAP requirements for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements to eliminate unnecessary wording differences between GAAP and IFRS. However, some of the amendments clarify the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (the “FASB”) intent about the application of existing fair value measurement requirements and other amendments changed a particular principle or requirement for measuring fair value or for disclosing information about fair value measurements. This new guidance did not have a significant impact on the Partnership’s financial statements.

AAA Capital Energy Fund L.P.

Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 2012

The Partnership values investments in the Master where there are no other rights or obligations inherent within the ownership interest held by the Partnership based on the end of the day net asset value of the Master (Level 2). The value of the Partnership’s investment in the Master reflects its proportional interest in the Master. As of and for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, the Partnership did not hold any derivative instruments that were based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (Level 1) or priced at fair value using unobservable inputs through the application of management’s assumptions and internal valuation pricing models (Level 3). For the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, there were no transfers of assets or liabilities between Level 1 and Level 2.

Master’s Investments and Fair Value Measurements. For disclosures regarding the Master’s investments and fair value measurements, see Note 2, “Accounting Policies,” on the attached Master’s financial statements.

Brokerage Commissions. Commission charges to open and close futures and exchange-traded swap contracts are expensed at the time the positions are opened. Commission charges on option contracts are expensed at the time the position is established and when the option contract is closed.

Income Taxes. Income taxes have not been provided as each partner is individually liable for the taxes, if any, on its 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 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. The 2009 through 2012 tax years remain subject to examination by U.S. federal and most state tax authorities. The General Partner does not believe that there are any uncertain tax positions that require recognition of a tax liability.

Subsequent Events. The General Partner evaluates events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are filed. The General Partner has assessed the subsequent events through the date of filing and has determined that other than as described in Note 8 to the financial statements, no events have occurred that require adjustment of or disclosure in the financial statements.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements. On October 1, 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-04 “Technical Corrections and Improvements,” which makes minor technical corrections and clarifications to Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures”. When the FASB issued Statement 157 (codified in ASC 820), it conformed the use of the term “fair value” in certain pre-Codification standards but not others. ASU 2012-04 conforms the term’s use throughout the ASC “to fully reflect the fair value measurement and disclosure requirements” of ASC 820. ASU 2012-04 also amends the requirements that must be met for an investment company to qualify for the exemption from presenting a statement of cash flows. Specifically, it eliminates the requirements that substantially all of an entity’s investments be carried at “market value” and that the investments be highly liquid. Instead, it requires substantially all of the entity’s investments to be carried at “fair value” and classified as Level 1 or Level 2 measurements under ASC 820. The amendments are effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The adoption of this ASU will not have a material impact on the Partnership’s financial statements.

In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-11, “Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities,” which creates a new disclosure requirement about the nature of an entity’s rights of setoff and the related arrangements associated with its financial instruments and derivative instruments. Subsequently in January 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-01 “Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities”, which clarifies the types of instruments and transactions that are subject to the offsetting disclosure requirements established by ASU 2011-11. Entities are required to disclose both gross and net information about both instruments and transactions eligible for offset in the statement of financial position and instruments and transactions subject to an agreement similar to a Partnership netting arrangement. The objective of these disclosures is to facilitate comparisons between those entities that prepare their financial statements on the basis of GAAP and those entities that prepare their financial statements on the basis of IFRS. The disclosure requirements are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods. The Partnership would also provide the disclosures retrospectively for all comparative periods presented. The Partnership is currently evaluating the impact these pronouncements would have on the financial statements.

In October 2011, the FASB issued a proposed ASU intended to improve and converge financial reporting by setting forth consistent criteria for determining whether an entity is an investment company. Under longstanding GAAP, investment companies carry all of their investments at fair value, even if they hold a controlling interest in another company. The primary changes being proposed by the FASB relate to which entities would be considered investment companies as well as certain disclosure and presentation requirements. In addition to the changes to the criteria for determining whether an entity is an investment company, the FASB also proposes that an investment company consolidate another investment company if it holds a controlling financial interest in the entity. In August 2012, the FASB updated the proposed ASU to state that entities regulated under the Investment Company Act of 1940 should qualify to be investment companies within the proposed investment company guidance. The Partnership will evaluate the impact that this proposed update would have on the financial statements once the pronouncement is issued.

3.	Agreements:

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 General Partner has agreed to make capital contributions, if necessary, so that its general partnership interest will be equal to the greater of (i) 1% of the partners’ contributions to the Partnership or (ii) $25,000.

Management Agreement:

The General Partner, on behalf of the Partnership, has entered into a management agreement with the Advisor (the “Management Agreement”), a registered commodity trading advisor. The Partnership is obligated to pay the Advisor a monthly management fee equal to ¹/₆ of 1% (2% per year) of month-end Net Assets allocated to 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 profit share allocation accrual, the monthly management fee and any redemption or distributions as of the end of such month. The Management Agreement may be terminated upon notice by either party.

Customer Agreement:

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 commodity interests, including derivative financial instruments and derivative commodity instruments. The Partnership invests substantially all of its assets through a “master-feeder” structure. The Partnership’s pro-rata share of the results of the Master’s trading activities are shown in the Statements of Income and Expenses.

The customer agreements between the Partnership and CGM and the Master and CGM give the Partnership and the Master, respectively, the legal right to net unrealized gains and losses on open futures and exchange-cleared swaps contracts. The Master nets, for financial reporting purposes, the unrealized gains and losses on open futures and exchange-cleared swaps contracts on the Statements of Financial Condition as the criteria under ASC 210-20, “Balance Sheet”, have been met.

Brokerage commissions are based on the number of trades executed by the Advisor and the Partnership’s ownership percentage of the Master.

For disclosures regarding the Master’s trading activities, see Note 4, “Trading Activities,” on the attached Master’s financial statements.

5.	Distributions and Redemptions:

Distributions of profits, if any, will be made at the sole discretion of the General Partner and at such times as the General Partner may decide. A limited partner may require the Partnership to redeem its Redeemable Units at their net asset value as of the last day of each month on three business days’ notice to the General Partner. There is no fee charged to limited partners in connection with redemptions.

6.	Financial Highlights:

7.	Financial Instrument Risks:

In the normal course of business, the Partnership, through its investment in the Master, 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, options and swaps, whose values are based upon an underlying asset, index, or reference rate, and generally represent future commitments to exchange currencies or cash balances, or to purchase or sell other financial instruments at specific terms at specified future dates, or, in the case of derivative commodity instruments, to have a reasonable possibility to be settled in cash, through physical delivery or with another financial instrument. These instruments may be traded on an exchange or over-the-counter (“OTC”). Exchange traded instruments are standardized and include futures and certain forward and option contracts. OTC contracts are negotiated between contracting parties and include certain swaps, forward and option contracts. Specific market movements of commodities or futures contracts underlying an option cannot accurately be predicted. The purchaser of an option may lose the entire premium paid for the option. The writer, or seller, of an option has unlimited risk. 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.

Market risk is the potential for changes in the value of the financial instruments traded by the Partnership/Master due to market changes, including interest and foreign exchange rate movements

AAA Capital Energy Fund L.P.

Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 2012

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

The Advisor will concentrate the Partnership’s/Master’s trading in energy related markets. Concentration in a limited number of commodity interests may subject the Partnership’s/Master’s account to greater volatility than if a more diversified portfolio of contracts were traded on behalf of the Partnership/Master.

The General Partner/managing member monitors and attempts to control the Partnership’s/Master’s risk exposure on a daily basis through financial, credit and risk management monitoring systems, and accordingly, believes that it has effective procedures for evaluating and limiting the credit and market risks to which the Partnership/Master may be subject. These monitoring systems generally allow the General Partner/managing member to statistically analyze actual trading results with risk-adjusted performance indicators and correlation statistics. In addition, online monitoring systems provide account analysis of futures and exchange cleared swaps, forwards and options positions 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/Master’s business, these instruments may not be held to maturity.

8.	Subsequent Events:

Effective January 1, 2013, the Advisor reduced the management fee to ¹/₁₂ of 1.5% (1.5% per year) of month-end Net Assets.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Members of

AAA Master Fund LLC:

We have audited the accompanying statements of financial condition of AAA Master Fund LLC (the “Company”), including the condensed schedules of investments, as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the related statements of income and expenses, and changes in members’ capital for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2012. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company 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 Company’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 financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of AAA Master Fund LLC as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the results of its operations and its changes in members’ capital for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2012, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

AAA Master Fund LLC

Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 2012

1.	General:

AAA Master Fund LLC, (the “Master”) is a limited liability company formed under the New York Limited Liability Company Law. The Master’s purpose is to engage in the speculative trading of a diversified portfolio of commodity interests including futures contracts, options, swaps and forward contracts. The Master may trade commodity futures and option contracts of any kind but intends initially to trade solely energy, energy related products, grains, indices, lumber and softs. The commodity interests that are traded by the Master are volatile and involve a high degree of market risk. The Master may sell an unlimited number of units of member interest (“Units”).

Ceres Managed Futures LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, acts as the managing member (the “Managing Member”) and commodity pool operator of the Master. The Managing Member 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 Inc., indirectly, owns a minority equity interest in MSSB Holdings. Citigroup Inc. also indirectly owns Citigroup Global Markets Inc. (“CGM”), the commodity broker for the Master. Prior to July 31, 2009, the date as of which MSSB Holdings became its owner, the Managing Member 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 Inc. As of December 31, 2012, all trading decisions for the Master are made by the Advisor (defined below).

On September 1, 2001 (date Master commenced trading), AAA Capital Energy Fund L.P. (“AAA”) allocated substantially all of its capital and Orion Futures Fund L.P. (“Orion”) allocated a portion of its capital to the Master. The partnerships purchased 133,712.5867 Units with a fair value of $133,712,587 (including unrealized appreciation of $7,755,035). On July 1, 2002, AAA Capital Energy Fund L.P. II (“AAA II”) allocated substantially all of its capital to the Master and purchased 64,945.0387 Units with cash equal to $94,925,000. On October 1, 2005, Tactical Diversified Futures Fund L.P. (“Tactical Diversified”) allocated a portion of its capital to the Master and purchased 13,956.1190 Units with cash equal to $50,000,000. On July 1, 2005, Institutional Futures Portfolio L.P. (“Institutional Portfolio”) allocated a portion of its capital to the Master and purchased 2,386.2338 Units with cash equal to $7,000,000. On July 1, 2006, Legion Strategies, LTD (“Legion LTD”) allocated a portion of its capital to the Master and purchased 793.9501 Units with cash equal to $4,000,000. On October 1, 2006, Energy Advisors Portfolio L.P. (“Energy Advisors”) allocated a portion of its capital to the Master and purchased 723.8213 Units with cash equal to $3,315,000. On March 1, 2007, Global Futures Fund Ltd. (“Global Futures”) allocated a portion of its capital to the Master and purchased 344.5961 Units with cash equal to $1,614,644. On April 1, 2009, Orion Futures Fund (Cayman) Ltd. (“Orion Cayman”) allocated a portion of its capital to the Master and purchased 84.1311 Units with cash equal to $800,000. On January 31, 2010, Tactical Diversified redeemed its entire investment in the Master for cash equal to $40,267,084. On December 31, 2010, Legion LTD redeemed its entire investment in the Master for cash equal to $7,941,213. On April 30, 2011, Energy Advisors redeemed its entire investment in the Master for cash equal to $3,469,560. The Master was formed to permit commodity pools managed now or in the future by AAA Capital Management Advisors, Ltd. (the “Advisor”) using the Energy Program – Futures and Swaps, a proprietary, discretionary trading program, to invest together in one trading vehicle.

The Master operates under a structure where its investors consist of AAA, AAA II, Institutional Portfolio, Global Futures, Orion and Orion Cayman (each a “Member”, collectively the “Funds”). AAA, AAA II, Institutional Portfolio, Global Futures, Orion and Orion Cayman owned approximately 17.3%, 32.7%, 1.4%, 1.1%, 47.2% and 0.3%, respectively, of the Master at December 31, 2012. AAA, AAA II, Institutional Portfolio, Global Futures, Orion and Orion Cayman owned approximately 19.9%, 36.1%, 1.7%, 1.2%, 40.8% and 0.3%, respectively, of the Master at December 31, 2011.

AAA Master Fund LLC

Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 2012

The Master will be liquidated under certain circumstances as defined in the limited liability company agreement of the Master (the “Limited Liability Company Agreement”).

2.	Accounting Policies:

Statement of Cash Flows. The Master is not required to provide a Statement of Cash Flows.

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

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

GAAP also requires the use of 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 Master’s Level 1 assets and liabilities are actively traded.

The Master will separately present purchases, sales, issuances, and settlements in its reconciliation of Level 3 fair value measurements (i.e., to present such items on a gross basis rather than on a net basis), and makes 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.

Effective January 1, 2012, the Master adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2011-04, “Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards” (“IFRS”). The amendments within this ASU changed the wording used to describe many of the GAAP requirements for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements to eliminate unnecessary wording differences between GAAP and IFRS.

AAA Master Fund LLC

Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 2012

However, some of the amendments clarified the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s (the “FASB”) intent about the application of existing fair value measurement requirements and other amendments changed a particular principle or requirement for measuring fair value or for disclosing information about fair value measurements. This new guidance did not have a significant impact on the Master’s financial statements.

The Master considers prices for exchange-traded commodity futures, forwards and options contracts to be based on unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities (Level 1). The values of non-exchange traded swaps and certain option contracts for which market quotations are not readily available are priced by broker-dealers who derive fair values for those assets and liabilities from observable inputs (Level 2). As of and for the years ended December 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the Master did not hold any derivative instruments for which market quotations are not readily available and which were priced by broker-dealers who derive fair values for those assets and liabilities 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). For the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, there were no transfers of assets or liabilities between Level 1 and Level 2.

Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 2012

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

Options. The Master may purchase and write (sell), both exchange-listed and over-the-counter, 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 Master writes an option, the premium received is recorded as a liability in the Statements of Financial Condition and marked to market daily. When the Master purchases an option, the premium paid is recorded as an asset in the Statements of Financial Condition and marked to market daily. Net realized gains (losses) and changes in net unrealized gains (losses) on options contracts are included in the Statements of Income and Expenses.

Income and Expenses Recognition. All of the income and expenses and realized and unrealized gains and losses on trading of commodity interests are determined on each valuation day and allocated pro rata among the Funds at the time of such determination.

Income Taxes. Income taxes have not been provided as each Member is individually liable for the taxes, if any, on its share of the Master’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 Master’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 Master 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 Managing Member concluded that no provision for income tax is required in the Master’s financial statements.

The Master files U.S. federal and various state and local tax returns. No income tax returns are currently under examination. The 2009 through 2012 tax years remain subject to examination by U.S. federal and most state tax authorities. The Managing Member does not believe that there are any uncertain tax positions that require recognition of a tax liability.

Subsequent Events. The Managing Member evaluates events that occur after the balance sheet date but before financial statements are filed. The Managing Member 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.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements. On October 1, 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-04 “Technical Corrections and Improvements”, which makes minor technical corrections and clarifications to Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures.” When the FASB issued Statement 157 (codified in ASC 820), it conformed the use of the term “fair value” in certain pre-Codification standards but not others. ASU 2012-04 conforms the term’s use throughout the ASC “to fully reflect the fair value measurement and disclosure requirements” of ASC 820. ASU 2012-04 also amends the requirements that must be met for an investment company to qualify for the exemption from presenting a statement of cash flows. Specifically, it eliminates the requirements that substantially all of an entity’s investments be carried at “market value” and that the investments be highly liquid. Instead, it requires substantially all of the entity’s investments to be carried at “fair value” and classified as Level 1 or Level 2 measurements under ASC 820. The amendments are effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The adoption of this ASU will not have a material impact on the Master’s financial statements.

In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-11, “Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities,” which creates a new disclosure requirement about the nature of an entity’s rights of setoff and the related arrangements associated with its financial instruments and derivative instruments. Subsequently in January 2013, the FASB issued ASU 2013-01 “Clarifying the Scope of Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities”, which clarifies the types of instruments and transactions that are subject to the offsetting disclosure requirements established by ASU 2011-11. Entities are required to disclose both gross and net information about both instruments and transactions eligible for offset in the statement of financial position and instruments and transactions subject to an agreement similar to a master netting arrangement. The objective of these disclosures is to facilitate comparisons between those entities that prepare their financial statements on the basis of GAAP and those entities that prepare their financial statements on the basis of IFRS. The disclosure requirements are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013, and interim periods within those annual periods. The Master would also provide the disclosures retrospectively for all comparative periods presented. The Master is currently evaluating the impact these pronouncements would have on the financial statements.

In October 2011, the FASB issued a proposed ASU intended to improve and converge financial reporting by setting forth consistent criteria for determining whether an entity is an investment company. Under longstanding GAAP, investment companies carry all of their investments at fair value, even if they hold a controlling interest in another company. The primary changes being proposed by the FASB relate to which entities would be considered investment companies as well as certain disclosure and presentation requirements. In addition to the changes to the criteria for determining whether an entity is an investment company, the FASB also proposes that an investment company consolidate another investment company if it holds a controlling financial interest in the entity. In August 2012, the FASB updated the proposed ASU to state that entities regulated under the Investment Company Act of 1940 should qualify to be investment companies within the proposed investment company guidance. The Master will evaluate the impact that this proposed update would have on the financial statements once the pronouncement is issued.

3.	Agreements:

Limited Liability Company Agreement:

The Managing Member administers the business affairs of the Master, including selecting one or more advisors to make trading decisions for the Master.

Management Agreement:

The Managing Member, on behalf of the Master, has entered into a management agreement (the “Management Agreement”) with the Advisor, a registered commodity trading advisor. The Advisor is not affiliated with the Managing Member or CGM and is not responsible for the organization or operation of the Master. The Management Agreement provides that the Advisor has sole discretion in determining the investment of the assets of the Master. All management fees in connection with the Management Agreement shall be borne by the Funds. The Management Agreement may be terminated upon notice by either party.

Customer Agreement:

The Master 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 Master’s account in accordance with orders placed by the Advisor. All floor brokerage, exchange, clearing, service, user, give-up and National Futures Association fees (collectively the “clearing fees”) are borne by the Master consistent with contractual agreements. All other fees (management fees, administrative fees, incentive fees, brokerage commissions and offering costs) shall be borne by the Funds. All of the Master’s cash is deposited by CGM in segregated bank accounts, to the extent required by Commodity Futures Trading Commission regulations. At December 31, 2012 and 2011, the amounts of cash held by the Master for margin requirements were $38,559,983 and $33,580,718, respectively. The Customer Agreement may be terminated by either party. All commissions in connection with the Customer Agreement shall be borne by the Funds.

4.	Trading Activities:

The Master 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 Master’s trading activities are shown in the Statements of Income and Expenses.

The Customer Agreement between the Master and CGM gives the Master the legal right to net unrealized gains and losses on open futures and exchange-cleared swap contracts. The Master nets, for financial reporting purposes, the unrealized gains and losses on open futures and exchange-cleared swap contracts on the Statements of Financial Condition as the criteria under ASC 210-20, “Balance Sheet,” have been met.

All of the commodity interests owned by the Master are held for trading purposes. The monthly average number of futures and exchange-cleared swap contracts traded during the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 were 43,202 and 82,768, respectively. The monthly average number of option contracts traded during the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011 were 72,140 and 108,906, respectively.

A non-managing member may withdraw all or part of their capital contribution and undistributed profits, if any, from the Master in multiples of the net asset value per Unit as of the end of any month. The Units are classified as a liability when the non-managing member elects to redeem and informs the Master.

The above ratios may vary for individual investors based on the timing of capital transactions during the year. Additionally, these ratios are calculated for the non-managing member class using the non-managing member’s share of income, expenses and average net assets.

7.	Financial Instrument Risks:

In the normal course of business, the Master 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, options and swaps whose values are based upon an underlying asset, index, or reference rate, and generally represent future commitments to exchange currencies or cash balances, to purchase or sell other financial instruments at specific terms at specified future dates, or, in the case of derivative commodity instruments, to have a reasonable possibility to be settled in cash, through physical delivery or with another financial instrument. These instruments may be traded on an exchange or over-the-counter (“OTC”). Exchange-traded instruments are standardized and include futures and certain forwards and option contracts. OTC contracts are negotiated between contracting parties and include certain forwards, swaps and option contracts. Specific market movements of commodities or futures contracts underlying an option cannot accurately be predicted. The purchaser of an option may lose the entire premium paid for the option. The writer, or seller, of an option has unlimited risk. 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.

Market risk is the potential for changes in the value of the financial instruments traded by the Master due to market changes, including interest and foreign exchange rate movements and fluctuations in commodity or security prices. Market risk is directly impacted by the volatility and liquidity in the markets in which the related underlying assets are traded. The Master 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 Master’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 Master’s risk of loss is reduced through the use of legally enforceable master netting agreements with counterparties that permit the Master to offset unrealized gains and losses and other assets and liabilities with such counterparties upon the occurrence of certain events. The Master has credit risk and concentration risk, as CGM or a CGM affiliate is the sole counterparty or broker with respect to the Master’s assets. Credit risk with respect to exchange-traded instruments is reduced to the extent that through CGM, the Master’s counterparty is an exchange or clearing organization.

The Advisor will concentrate the Master’s trading in energy related markets. Concentration in a limited number of commodity interests may subject the Master’s account to greater volatility than if a more diversified portfolio of contracts were traded on behalf of the Master.

As both a buyer and seller of options, the Master 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 Master 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 Master does not consider these contracts to be guarantees.

AAA Master Fund LLC

Notes to Financial Statements

December 31, 2012

The Managing Member monitors and attempts to control the Master’s risk exposure on a daily basis through financial, credit and risk management monitoring systems and, accordingly, believes that it has effective procedures for evaluating and limiting the credit and market risks to which the Master may be subject. These monitoring systems generally allow the Managing Member to statistically analyze actual trading results with risk-adjusted performance indicators and correlation statistics. In addition, online monitoring systems provide account analysis of futures and exchange-cleared swaps, forwards and options positions 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 Master’s business, these instruments may not be held to maturity.

Not applicable.

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 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 President and Chief Financial Officer (“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 President and CFO have evaluated the effectiveness of the Partnership’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of December 31, 2012 and, based on that evaluation, the President 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 President 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 and correction 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, 2012 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting.

Item 9B. Other Information.

None.
