VALUATION
Futures and option contracts traded on exchanges are valued at their settlement prices on the day as of which
Net Assets am determined; provided, however, that, if a futures or option contract could not be liquidated on such
day due to the operation of daily price fluctuation limits or other rules of the exchange on which such contract is
traded or otherwise, the settlement price on the first subsequent day on which such contract could be liquidated
will be the value of such contract for such day.
Foreign exchange spot and forward contracts and options, off-exchange option contracts, interest rate and
credit default swaps, and swaptions are valued in good faith by the General Partner based on pricing models
developed by the General Partner or broker quotations.
Commodity forward contracts and commodity and equity swaps are valued based on the settlement prices of
the underlying instruments (in accordance with the policies described above). In the absence of a settlement
price, valuations are determined using broker quotations.
Equity securities traded on exchanges or included in the NASDAQ Stock Market are valued at their last sale
prices reported on the day as of which Net Assets are determined, or, if a security did not trade on such day, the
last sale price on the next preceding day on which a sale price was reported. Over-the-counter securities for
which last sale prices are not reported through the NASDAQ Stock Market generally arc valued at their last sale
prices reported on the day as of which Net Assets are determined unless such securities, in the opinion of the
General Partner, are illiquid, in which case such securities are valued at their last reported bid prices if held long
and their last reported asked prices if sold short.
Options on equity securities traded on exchanges are valued at their last reported mid-price on the day as of
which Net Assets are determined. Over-the-counter options that are not traded on an exchange are valued in good
faith by the General Partner and the Service Provider based on pricing models developed by the General Partner
that consider the time value of money, volatility, and the current market and contractual prices of the underlying
financial instruments.
Fixed income securities are valued using prices published by independent vendors, which in turn utilize
prices supplied by brokers. HighlYiekt ind distressed debt is valued using broker quotations and independent
pricing services, if available.
Investments in other investment companies are valued at the net asset values reported by such investment
companies.
In the absence of quoted values or when quoted values am deemed by the General Partner not to be
representative of market values for positions, such positions are recorded at fair value in accordance with
guidelines approved by the General Partner in consultation with the Partnership's independent public
accountants, and any unrealized appreciation or depreciation generally is included in such values. Securities that
have transfer restrictions generally are valued at a discount, as determined by the General Partner• to reflect
restricted marketability. Securities and other investments for which quoted values are not available generally are
valued at cost unless circumstances indicate that a different valuation is warranted, as determined by the General
Partner. Values generally are adjusted if, for example, the General Partner determines that a substantial arm's
length transaction has occurred, the investee company is experiencing significant operating difficulties or the
operating environment for such companies, individually or as a whole, has deteriorated. In addition to special
valuation determinations relating to illiquid positions, other special situations affecting the valuation of portfolio
positions may arise from time to time. Prospective investors should understand that any uncertainties as to the
valuation of portfolio positions could have an impact on the calculation of Net Assets if judgments regarding
appropriate valuations should prove to be incorrect.
The General Partner, in consultation with the Service Provider and the Partnership's auditor, will update
these policies as they deem reasonably necessary, taking into account, among other factors, the availability and
accuracy of third party pricing sources, the development of additional pricing models, and the timing of material
announcements or events concerning markets or instruments.

Credit" is the product of (x) the debit balance in the Loss Recovery Account multiplied by (y) a
fraction, the numerator of which is the Incentive Allocation rate for the I ass Class, and the
denominator of which is the Incentive Allocation rate for the Gain Class. The Loss Recovery
Account of the Loss Class shall be credited by the debit balance in the Loss Recovery Account
used to reduce the Net Capital Appreciation of the Gain Class.
(e) If, upon the expiration of a Lock-Up Period, a Limited Partner
elects to convert its interests (or portion thereof) with respect to the applicable Capital Account
into a different Class of Interests and such conversion occurs on a date which does not
correspond with the fiscal year-end of the Partnership, the Incentive Allocation rate for such
interests for the fiscal year in which the conversion was made shall be the time-weighted average
of the Incentive Allocation rate applicable to the Class of Interests converted and the Incentive
Allocation rate applied to the new Class of Interests. Thereafter, the Incentive Allocation rate
will be the Incentive Allocation rate applicable to the new Class of Interests.
(1) In the event that the Partnership is dissolved on a date which is not
the end of a fiscal year, or the effective date of a Limited Partner's withdrawal upon the
expiration of a Lock-Up Period is a date which is not the end of a fiscal year, then, for purposes
of determining the Incentive Allocation, Net Capital Appreciation shall be determined through
the dissolution date (for all Limited Partners) or the withdrawal date (for the withdrawing Partner
only) as if such date were the end of the fiscal year.
(g) In the event the General Penner determines that, for tax or
regulatory reasons, or any other reasons as to which the General Partner and any Limited Partner
agree, such Partner should not participate in the gains or losses, if any, attributable to trading in
any Security or type of Security or to any other transaction, the General Partner may allocate
such Net Capital Appreciation or Net Capital Depreciation only to the Capital Accounts of
Partners to whom such reasons do not apply. In addition, if for any of the reasons described
above, the General Partner determines that a Partner should have no interest whatsoever in a
particular Security, type of Security or transaction, the interests in such Security, type of Security
or transaction may be set forth in a separate memorandum account in which only the Partners
having an interest in such security, type of security or transaction shall have an interest and the
gains and losses for each such memorandum account shall be separately calculated.
Sec. 3.06 Amendment of Incentive Allocation. The General Partner shall
have the right to amend, without the consent of the Limited Partners, Sec. 3.05 of this Agreement
so that the Incentive Allocation therein provided conforms to any applicable requirements of the
Securities and Exchange Commission and other regulatory authorities; provided, however, that no
such amendment shall increase the Incentive Allocation as so amended to more than the amount
that would be allocable prior to_giving_effect to such amendment.
Sec. 3.07 Valuation of Assets.
(a) Securities (including options) will generally be valued at their last
sales price on the date the valuation is made on the primary securities exchange on which they are
traded or on the consolidated tape in the case of Securities traded on the Nasdaq National Market
System. If there were no reported sales on the date the valuation is made, the Securities will be
545463.13
EFTA01118866
valued at their last "bid" prices if held "long" and their last "asked" prices if held "short."
Securities which are not listed on a national securities exchange nor included in the Nasdaq
National Market System will be valued at their last closing "bid" prices if held "long" and their last
closing "asked" prices if held "short." In the event the Partnership acquires Securities or other
financial instruments for which market quotations are not available, such Securities will be valued
at their fair market value as determined by the General Partner. Securities not denominated in
U.S. dollars will be translated into U.S. dollars at prevailing exchange rates as determined by the
General Partner.
(b) All other assets of the Partnership (except goodwill, which shall not
be taken into account) shall be assigned such value as the General Partner may reasonably
determine.
(c) If the General Partner determines that the valuation of any Securities
or other property pursuant to Sec. 3.07(a) does not fairly represent market value, the General
Partner shall value such Securities or other property as it reasonably determines and shall set forth
the basis of such valuation in writing in the Partnership's records.
(d) All values assigned to Securities and other assets by the General
Partner pursuant to this Sec. 3.07 shall be final and conclusive as to all of the Partners.
Sec. 3.0g Assets and Liabilities. Assets and liabilities shall generally be
determined using generally accepted accounting principles applied on a consistent basis; provided,
however that (i) the Partnership's organizational expenses will be amortized by the Partnership
over a 60-month period; and (ii) the General Partner in its discretion may provide reserves for
estimated accrued expenses, liabilities or contingencies, including general reserves for unspecified
contingencies (even if such reserves are not in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles).
Sec. 3.09 Allocation for Tax Purposes. For each fiscal year, items of income,
deduction, gain, loss or credit shall be allocated for income tax purposes among the Partners in
such manner as to reflect equitably amounts credited or debited to each Partner's Capital
Account(s) for the current and prior fiscal year (or relevant portions thereof). Allocations under
this Sec. 3.09 shall be made pursuant to the principles of Section 704(b) and 704(c) of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), and Regulations Sections 1.704-
1(b)(2)(ivXf) and (g), I.704-1(b)(4)(i) and 1.704-3(c) promulgated thereunder, as applicable, or
the successor provisions to such Section and Regulations. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this Agreement, there shall be allocated to the Partners such gains or income as shall
be necessary to satisfy the "qualified income offset" requirement of Regulations Sections 1.704-
1(b)(2)(ii)(d).
If the Partnership realizes ordinary income and/or capital gains (including short-
term capital gains) for Federal income tax purposes (collectively, "income") for any fiscal year
during or as of the end of which one or more Positive Basis Partners (as hereinafter defined)
withdraw from the Partnership pursuant to Articles IV or VI, the General Partner may elect to

consistently applied. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the security to be valued constitutes
a block that, in the judgment of the Administrator, could not be liquidated in a reasonable
47
EFTA01118871
time without depressing the market, such block shall then be valued by the Administrator
but not at a unit value in excess of the quoted market price for the security.
In special circumstances in which the Administrator determines that market
prices or quotations do not fairly represent the value of particular securities or if no
quotation exists, the Administrator is authorized to assign a value to such securities which

TAX ASPECTS
This is only a summary of certain aspects of the income taxation of the
Fund and its Limited Partners that should be considered by a prospective Limited
Partner. The Fund has not sought a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service (the
"Service") or any other taxing authority with respect to any of the tax issues affecting the
Fund.
United States Federal Income Taxation
Disclaimer. The Treasury Department has promulgated regulations
which require the following statements. First, prospective investors should consult their
own tax advisors with respect to the Federal, state and local tax aspects of an
investment in the Fund based on their particular circumstances. Second, the
statements of tax consequences set forth below (i) were written to support the
marketing of the Interests; and (ii) were not intended or written to be used, and they
cannot be used, by the Fund or any taxpayer for the purpose of avoiding certain
penalties that may be imposed with respect to tax deficiencies.
The discussion of United States Federal income tax aspects is based
upon the Code, judicial decisions, Treasury Regulations (the "Regulations') and
published revenue rulings and procedures in existence on the date hereof, all of which
are subject to change, possibly with retroactive effect. This summary does not discuss
all of the tax consequences that may be relevant to a particular investor or to certain
investors subject to special treatment under the Federal income tax laws, such as
insurance companies, tax-exempt persons and foreign persons (i.e., persons not
subject to United States taxation on their world-wide incomes).
Tax Treatment of Fund Operations
Classification of the Fund. The Fund and the Portfolio intend to operate
as partnerships for Federal income tax purposes and will not be taxable as
corporations.
As partnerships, the Fund and the Portfolio will not themselves be subject
to Federal income tax. The Fund will file annual information returns with the Service
that report the results of its share of the Portfolio's operations. Each Limited Partner is

VALUATION OF THE PORTFOLIO'S ASSETS
The Portfolio General Partner is authorized to value the assets held by the
Portfolio in accordance with the Portfolio Agreement. The Portfolio Agreement provides
that investments shall be valued as follows: (i) futures, options on futures and other

price on the commodity exchange on which the particular commodity interest is traded
by the Portfolio on the close of the day with respect to which Net Assets are being
determined; provided that if a commodity interest could not be liquidated on such day
due to the operation of daily limits or other rules of the commodity exchange upon which
that interest is traded or otherwise, the settlement price on the first subsequent day on
which the contract could be liquidated shall be the market value of such contract for
such day; (ii) forward, spot and swap contracts, other off-exchange instruments, derivative

securities shall be valued at their last sales price on the first subsequent day on which
trading is resumed on the principal exchange on which such securities are listed;
(iv) securities (including options) traded over-the-counter that are freely transferable shall
be valued, in the case of long' positions, at their last "bid' price and, in the case of "short"

security selected by the Portfolio General Partner, in consultation with the Trading
Manager.
In special circumstances in which the Portfolio General Partner, in
consultation with the Trading Manager, determines that market prices or quotations do not
fairly represent the value of particular securities or if no quotation exists, the Portfolio
General Partner, in consultation with the Trading Manager, is authorized to assign a value
to such securities which differs from the market prices or quotations in its good faith
discretion. Except as provided above, all other assets (including options not listed on any
national securities exchange or traded over-the-counter) of the Portfolio shall be valued in
the manner determined by the Portfolio General Partner or the Trading Manager.

TAX ASPECTS
This is only a summary of certain aspects of the income taxation of the
Fund and its Limited Partners that should be considered by a prospective Limited
Partner. The Fund has not sought a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service (the
"Service") or any other Federal, state or local agency with respect to any of the tax
issues affecting the Fund.
This summary is based upon the Code, judicial decisions, Treasury
Regulations (the Regulations") and published rulings in existence on the date hereof,
all of which are subject to change, possibly with retroactive effect. This summary does
not discuss all of the tax consequences that may be relevant to a particular investor or
to certain investors subject to special treatment under the Federal income tax laws,
such as insurance companies.
Each prospective Limited Partner should consult with his own tax adviser
about the Federal, state, local and foreign income tax consequences of an investment in
the Fund.

Limited Partner shall have any right or claim individually to the use thereof. The assets
shall be valued as follows: (i) securities (other than options) that are listed on a national
securities exchange and are freely transferable shall be valued at their last sales price
on the principal exchange on which such securities are listed, and options that are listed
on a national securities exchange shall be valued at their last sales price on the
principal exchange on which such options are traded; provided, however, that if the

securities shall be valued at their last sales price on the first subsequent day on which
trading is resumed on the principal exchange on which such securities are listed; (ii)
securities (including options) traded over-the-counter that are freely transferable shall

market, such block shall then be valued by the General Partner, in consultation with the
Administrator, but not at a unit value in excess of the quoted market price for the
security. In special circumstances in which the General Partner, in consultation with the
Administrator, determines that market prices or quotations do not fairly represent the
value of particular securities or if no quotation exists, the General Partner, in
consultation with the Administrator, is authorized to assign a value to such securities
which differs from the market prices or quotations in its good faith discretion. Except as
provided above, all other assets (including options not listed on any national securities

reasonable time without depressing the market, such block shall then be valued by the
Administrator but not at a unit value in excess of the quoted market price for the security.
In special circumstances in which the Administrator determines that market prices
or quotations do not fairly represent the value of particular securities or if no quotation exists, the
Administrator is authorized to assign a value to such securities which differs from the market prices
or quotations in its good faith discretion. Except as provided above, all other assets (including
options not listed on any national securities exchange or traded over-the-counter) of the Portfolio
shall be valued in the manner determined by the Administrator.

any portion that is unfunded.
Dividend income and dividend expense, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Interest income and interest expense are recognized on an accrual basis; however, with
respect to the debt of issuers that are in default, interest is not accrued and is only
recognized if and when received. Interest income and interest expense include the accretion
and amortization of the market discount or premium on debt instruments.
Any upfront payment made or received upon entering into a credit default swap contract is
recorded as part of the cost or proceeds of such contract and is reflected as part of the
unrealized gain or loss upon valuation thereof. Upon termination of the swap contract, the
amount included in the cost or proceeds becomes part of the contract's realized gain or loss
c. Investment valuation
Investments that are listed on a securities exchange or traded on NASDAQ are valued at the
last reported sales price on the last business day of the year. Investments listed on a

reported sales price is greater than the closing ask price, the option is valued at the closing
ask price. If a last reported sales price is not available, the option is valued at the mean of
the closing bid and closing ask prices.
Other investments, including over-the-counter ("OTC") or privately negotiated instruments
such as corporate bonds, bank debt, mortgage-backed securities, collateralized debt
obligations, trade or similar claims ("trade claims"), credit default swaps, other OTC
derivative contracts, and certain common and preferred stock positions, are valued at their
estimated fair value as determined in good faith by the Investment Manager after
consideration of various factors it deems appropriate, which may include one or more
representative quotes (if available) from independent third-party sources. However,
because of the inherent uncertainty of valuation, those estimated values may differ
significantly from the values that would have been used had a ready market for the
investments existed, and the differences could be material. Resultant unrealized gains and
losses are included in net change in unrealized gain or loss on investments.

4. Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures
In accordance with FASB ASC 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, the
Partnership discloses the fair value of its investments in a hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to
valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to
valuations based upon unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities
(level I measurements) and the lowest priority to valuations based upon unobservable inputs that
are significant to the valuation (level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value
hierarchy under FASB ASC 820-10 arc as follows:
Level I - Financial assets and liabilities whose values reflect unadjusted quoted prices in active
markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Partnership has the ability to access at the
measurement date. Financial assets and liabilities reported in level I generally include, but are
not limited to, active exchange-traded equity securities and certain government securities.
Pursuant to FASB ASC 820-10, the Partnership is not permitted to adjust the quoted price for
such instruments, even in situations where the Partnership holds a large position and a sale could
reasonably impact the quoted price.
Level 2 - Financial assets and liabilities whose values are based upon quoted prices in markets
that are less active or inputs that are observable), tor indirectly as of the reporting date.
Financial assets a;nd ities report0 in level 2 g nerall includoribut red limited to,
commercial paper, ce corporaterbonds and loans, less 'qui eqvi es, certain
mortgage-bseyekLec tiks.petatn collateralized debt ob, gat, serie est securities,
certain exchange-traded derivative contracts, certain trade claims, and certain OTC derivative
contracts (e.g., credit default swaps).
Level 3 - Financial assets and liabilities whose valuations are based upon prices or inputs that are
both unobservable and significant to the fair value measurement. Financial assets and liabilities
reported in level 3 generally include, but are not limited to, private equity and real estate
investments, certain mortgage-backed securities, certain collateralized debt obligations, certain
corporate bonds and loans, certain trade claims, and certain OTC derivative contracts.
A financial instrument's level within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of any
input that is significant to the fair value measurement. However, the determination of what
constitutes "observable" requires significant judgment by the Investment Manager. The
Investment Manager considers observable data to be market data which is readily available,
regularly distributed or updated, reliable and verifiable, not proprietary, and provided by
independent sources that are actively involved in the relevant market.
For level 3 instruments, the Investment Manager uses one or more valuation techniques (e.g., the
market approach or the income approach) for which sufficient and reliable data is available.
Within level 3, the market approach generally consists of using available market information,
including comparable market transactions, while the income approach generally consists of
determining the net present value of estimated future cash flows, adjusted as appropriate for
liquidity, credit, market, and/or other risk factors. The selection of appropriate valuation
techniques may be affected by the availability of relevant inputs as well as the relative reliability
of the inputs. in some cases, one valuation technique may provide the best indication of fair
value whik in other circumstances, multiple valuation techniques may be appropriate. The
results of the application of the various techniques may not be equally representative of fair value,
due to factors such as assumptions made in the valuation. In some situations, the Investment
EFTA01118880

King Street Capital, L.P. 18
Notes to Financial Statements
December 31, 2011
Manager may determine it appropriate to evaluate and weigh the results to develop a range of
possible values, with the fair value based upon the Investment Manager's assessment of the most
representative point within such range.
The inputs and valuation techniques used by the Investment Manager in estimating the value of
level 2 and level 3 instruments include dealer quotations, pricing services, third-party valuation
firms, counterparty prices, recent transactions in identical or similar instruments, completed or
pending third-party transactions in the underlying investment or comparable issuers, subsequent
rounds of financing, recapitalizations and other transactions across the capital structure, offerings
in the equity or debt capital markets, changes in financial ratios or cash flows, and the original
transaction price. While the valuation of the level 3 instruments may utilize some level I and/or
level 2 inputs, it also includes other unobservable inputs which arc considered significant to the
fair value determination.
In May 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-04, Fair Value
Measurements andDisclosures (Topic 820) - Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value
Measurement andDisclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP andIFRSs ("ASU 2011-04"). ASU

Amount and the Notional Portfolio shall be reduced by a number
of Units corresponding to such amount. On the settlement date
for such deemed relating to such reduction, the Notional
Leverage Amount shall be reduced by an amount equal to the
related Redemption Amount (calculated as if such date were ■
Redemption Cakulation Date), whichever is less. On the third
Business Day aRer such settlement, Citigroup shall pay to
Counterpany an amount (the 'Partial Termination Amount)
equal to the related Redemption Amount minus any reduction of
the Notional Leverage Amount effected in accordance with this
Conlimunion (but not less than zero).

(less any applicable Taxes) that would have been received by a
Hypothetical Investor on or before that Valuation Date minus the
sum of all Redemption Amounts that would have been received

Dates (if any). For the avoidance of doubt, if the Valuation Date
is the Cut-off Date, any redemption proceeds that would not have
been received in cash by a Hypothetical Investor in the Units by
the Cut-off Date shall be assigned a value of zero for purposes of
determining the Settlement Portfolio Value for such Valuation
Date.
7
EFTA01118889

amount that would be received at such lime by a Hypothetical
Investor redeeming such Units. For the avoidance of doubt, any
redemption proceeds that would be received by a Hypothetical

the greater of:
(i) zero; and
(ii) the Settlement Portfolio Value for such Valuation

ANNEX E
RISK DISCLOSURE STATEMENT
This Risk Disclosure Statement sets forth certain material risks associated with the derivative transaction
(the "Transactfoal entered into between ,
Wexner Children's Trust II U/AID 02-25-1998 (the "'Counterpart/1and Citigroup Financial Products Inc. (CFPI)
(together with its affiliates, "CRIgromf) on November 22,2006 . the terms of which are evidenced by ■ letter
agreement dated November 22. 2006. (the "Confirmation"). All capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise
defined have the meanings given to them in the Confirmation.
Counterparty acknowledges that the Transaction gives rise to, among others, the following risks:
1. No Guarantee of Profit. The Transaction entails a high degree of financial risk that could result in loss of
the full amount of Counterpart/5 initial payment. There is no guarantee that Counterparty will profit from the
Transaction.
2. Reliance on Fund and Fund Manager. The Transaction is a derivative contract that provides for payments
determined by reference to the value of each Fund. The performance of such Fund will be dependent on investment
management services to be provided by each Fund Manager and its personnel. Citigroup will not provide any
investment management services under the Transaction and will not be responsible for the performance of such
Fund. The investment program of such Fund involves significant risk factors and is suitable only for investors who
can bear the economic loss of their investment and who have limited need for liquidity in their investment. Before
entering into the Transaction, Counterparty should carefully review the offering documents for such Fund (including
disclosures concerning the risks of investing in such Fund) and the organizational documents of such Fund and any
related master fluid referred to therein, as well as any additional information that Counterparty or Counterpart/5
professional advisors deem material with respect to an investment in such Fund. The Fund Investment Guidelines
are solely for the protection of Citigroup and will not be communicated to or binding upon such Fund or such Fund
Manager.
3. The Transaction is not a Loan. Counterparty will have a leveraged exposure to the Units under the
Transaction. The amount of leverage provided may increase or decrease during the Transaction based on changes in
the value of the Units. Counterparty could have obtained a similar leveraged exposure to the Units by borrowing a
portion of the purchase price from a lender and pledging the Units to the lender as security fir the loan, but the
Transaction differs from a secured loan arrangement in significant respects, including the following: (i) the Notional
Portfolio and Notional Portfolio Amount are only notional concepts so Counterparty will not own or control any
Units through the Transaction (although Counterparty will be treated as "constructive owner" of the Units for tax
purposes), (ii) Counterparty will not have the right to redeem any Units from Citigroup upon termination of the
Transaction and (iii) Coanterparty will be exposed to the risk of nonpayment by Citigroup.
4. No Rights in or Arising from Units. Counterparty will have no legal or beneficial interest in the Units.
Counterparty will not have the right to vote, transfer or otherwise control the Units ad Citigroup will not be
obligated to take any other action with respect to the Units except as expressly provided in the Confirmation.
Counterparty will not have the rights of an investor in each Fund and therefore may be unable to assert a cause of
action for damages incurred under the Transaction resulting from acts or omissions of such Fund, each Underlying
Fund, each Fund Manager, each Underlying Fund Manager or related persons. Citigroup will not be obligated to
assert any such rights on Counterporty's behalf and may be entitled to be indemnified by Counterparty for such
matters under certain circumstances as provided in the Confirmation.
5. Citigroup's Hedging Activity. Citigroup may hedge the risk of the Transaction in whole or in pan by
investing in the Units but Citigroup has made no representation regarding the extent of the its hedging activities, if
any, and will have no obligation to establish or maintain any hedge position. To the extent that Citigroup elects to
hedge by investing in each Fund, Counterpart,/ will have no legal or beneficial interest in any the related Units. The
Transaction will be cash settled. so Counterparty will not be entitled to receive any Units from Citigroup at
termination of the Transaction. Citigroup or an affiliate may receive direct or indirect compensation from each Fund
or each Fund Manager in connection with any purchase of Units to be held as a hedge for the Transaction.
24
EFTA01118906
6. C-onaterporo• Risk. Counterparty s receipt of any amounts owed to it under the Transaction is dependent on
Citigroup's ability to pay those amounts. There is no central clearing or guaranty function for over-the-counter
derivatives such as the Transaction, so if Citigroup fails to make the cash payments required under the Transaction,
the Counterparty may lose its initial payment under the Transaction and any anticipated benefit of the Transaction.
In the event of an insolvency of Citigroup, Counterparty will be a general unsecured creditor of Citigroup and will
have no security interest or similar preferential rights to any Units held by Citigroup as a hedge for the Transaction.
7. Fund Information. Counterparty may have limited access to information provided to investors in each
Fund. Such information may not be made available to Citigroup (for example if Citigroup elects not to hedge its
risk by investing in the Units) or may be made available to Citigroup under obligations of confidentiality that
prohibit disclosure to Counterparty. Citigroup will be under no obligation to disclose to Counterparty any
information concerning such Fund except as expressly provided in the Confirmation. To the extent that any such
information is provided to Counterparty by Citigroup, (i) Citigroup will be under no duty to verify such information,
(ii) Citigroup will not make any representation or warranty concerning the accuracy, validity or completeness of
such information and (iii) Citigroup's delivery of such information should not be construed as investment or other
advice.
8. Leverage. The Transaction is highly leveraged. Such leverage increases the potential volatility of the
Transaction because any leverage will be repaid before payment is made to Counterparty. As a result, relatively
small movements in the value of each Fund may result in an immediate and substantial decline in the value of the
Transaction. A decline in value of such Fund may result in an immediate deleveraging of die Transaction and
reduction of Counterparty's exposure to such Fund at a time and price that is financially disadvantageous to
Counterparty unless Counterparty elects to make additional cash payments to Citigroup under the Transaction.
9. Citigroup's Discretion. Citigroup will act as Calculation Agent under the Transaction and in that capacity
will determine the Notional Leverage Amount, the Adjusted Notional Portfolio Amount and the Settlement Portfolio
Value, among other things. Absent manifest error, all calculations, valuations and determinations made by the
Calculation Agent with respect to the Transaction will be non-negotiable and binding on the Counterparty. Citigroup
will also have significant discretion to determine whether a Potential Termination Event has occurred and to modify
or cause an early termination of the Transaction in that event. Citigroup will exercise such rights in good faith as it
deems necessary to protect its interests under the Transaction will have no obligation to exercise or refrain such
rights for the benefit or protection of Counterparty or for the purpose of maximizing the Notional Portfolio Amount
or the Realized Basket Value. Citigroup will not act as fiduciary for Counterparty in connection with the
Transaction, whether in its capacity as party to the Transaction or as Calculation Agent.
10. illiqwidity. There is no established secondary trading market for transactions such as the Transaction and it
is unlikely that a secondary market will develop. Counterparty will not have the right to transfer, sell or assign any
interest in the Transaction. A fee will be deducted from the settlement value of the Transaction if Counterparty
elects to terminate the Transaction prior to the Scheduled Termination Date.
I I. New Issues. Citigroup is a 'restricted person' under Rule 2790 of the National Association of Securities
Dealers, Inc. (the 'Rule') end accordingly the Units referenced under the Transaction may be deemed subject to any
policies of each Fund that exclude investors who arc "restricted persons" from participating in any appreciation or
depreciation from new issues as defined in the Rule.
12. Citigroup Relationships with each Fund and Fund Manager. Each Fund is sponsored and advised by
Citigroup Alternative Investments, Inc, rCAl"), which is an affiliate of Citigroup. Each Fund will compensate CAI
for certain services it provides to such Fund. Payment of such fees by such Fund will reduce the Adjusted Notional
Portfolio Amount and the Settlement Portfolio Value below the amounts that would exist if such fees were not paid.
13. Citigroup Relationships with Each Underlying Fund and Underlying Fund Manager. Citigroup has or may
develop other business relationships with each Underlying Fund, each Underlying Fund Manager and/or other funds
managed or advised by such Underlying Fund Manager, including as investor in such Underlying Fund, a separate
account or other funds managed or advised by such Underlying Fund Manager, or as leverage provider, prime
broker, introducing broker, advisor, derivative counterpatty or otherwise, and as a result may earn fees, commissions
and other revenues from such Underlying Fund and/or such Underlying Fund Manager. As a result of such
25
EFTA01118907
relationships, Citigroup may possess information about such Underlying Fund or such Underlying Fund Manager
that may be inconsistent with or in addition to any information provided or made available to Counterparty and that
may be materially adverse as to such Underlying Fund or such Underlying Fund Manager. To the extent that
Citigroup has such information, Citigroup will not disclose that information to Counterpart), or provide any advice
or recommendations to Counterparty based on that information. Each Underlying Fund's obligations under any
transactions with Citigroup will generally rank senior to the Units. Citigroup will exercise its rights under such
transactions to protect its own interests, without regard to the interests of such Underlying Fund or Counterparty.
Exercise of such rights or termination of such transactions may have an adverse impact on such Underlying Fund or
the value of the Units.
14. Other Activities of Citigroup. Citigroup is or may be involved in a variety of commercial banking,
investment banking and asset management businesses, including without limitation (a) acting as investor, leverage
provider, prime broker, introducing broker, advisor, derivative countapany or otherwise for each Underlying Fund,
each Underlying Fund Manager, other 'kinds managed or advised by such Underlying Fund Manager or funds in
which any such person invests; (b) acting as underwriter, placement agent or dealer in securities in which such
Underlying Fund invests, directly or indirectly, or acting as advisor or provider of services on behalf of issuers of
such securities; (c) investing in (or acting as advisor or agent for clients investing in) entities with investment
objectives similar to those of such Underlying Fund; and (d) providing financing, financial advisory or other
services to persons in which such Underlying Fund invests or with whom it does business. Citigroup may engage in
such activities without regard to whether its interests therein conflict with the interests of such Underlying Fund or
its investors and without regard to any adverse impact on such Underlying Fund or Counterparty. In the course of
such activities Citigroup may obtain non-public information concerning such Underlying Fund or issuers or
securities in which it invests or persons with whom it does business. Citigroup will not disclose to Counterparty or
such Underlying Fund any information concerning or obtained in the course of such other business activities and
will be under no obligation to use such information for the benefit of Counterparty or such Underlying Fund.
IS. Citigroup Not Acting as Advisor. There may be significant legal, tax and investment risks associated with
the Transaction. Counterparty should consult and rely on qualified professional advisors with respect to such
matters. Citigroup is entering into the Transaction in a principal capacity for its own account. Citigroup is not acting
as adviser to Counterparty in connection with the Transaction and has not recommended the Transaction as a
suitable investment for Counterparty.
16. Certain Tax Matters. Counterparty and Citigroup will agree to treat the Transaction as a "constructive
ownership transaction" for purposes of Section 1260 of the Internal Revenue Code, as amended. Section 1260 treats
a taxpayer owning certain types of derivative positions in property as having "constructive ownership" of that
property, with the result that all or a portion of any lonyterm capital gain recognized by that taxpayer with respect
to the derivative position may be recharacterized as ordinary income. Section 1260 also imposts an interest charge
on any gain so reeharacterized. Counterparty should obtain independent tax advice concerning the impact of treating
the Transaction as a "constructive ownership transaction".
17. Other Terms of Confirmation. The Confirmation is subject to and incorporates the terms of the 1992 ISDA
Master Agreement (the "Master Agreement") published by The International Swaps and Derivatives Association,
Inc. ("ISDA"), a trade group including certain dealers in derivative instruments of which Citigroup is a member.
The Master Agreement contains additional agreements, representations, termination events and events of default
with respect to Counterparty and Citigroup that arc applicable to the Transaction even though not specified in the
Confirmation. The Confirmation also incorporates by reference certain definitions appearing in the following ISDA
definitional booklets: 2000 ISDA Definitions and 2002 ISDA Equity Derivatives Definitions. The Master
Agreement and the definitional booklets are available through the ISDA website (www kris ore).
18. Other Risks, Counterpany may be exposed to risks in connection with the Transaction that are not
described above. This Risk Disclosure Statement does not purport to disclose all risks of the Transaction.
