Investment in the Trading Company:
On January 1, 2021, the assets allocated to WCM for trading were invested in CMF Winton, a limited partnership organized under the partnership laws of the State of New York. CMF Winton permits accounts managed by WCM using the Winton Futures Program, a proprietary, systematic trading system, to invest together in one trading vehicle. The General Partner is also the general partner of CMF Winton. Individual and pooled accounts currently managed by WCM, including the Partnership, are permitted to be limited partners of CMF Winton. The General Partner and WCM believe that trading through this structure promotes efficiency and economy in the trading process. The General Partner and WCM have agreed that WCM will trade the Partnership’s assets allocated to WCM at a level that is up to 1.5 times the amount of assets allocated, provided that the General Partner may instruct WCM to change such level in accordance with the investment management agreement from time to time.
The General Partner is not aware of any material changes to the trading program discussed above during the year ended December 31, 2025.
The Partnership’s/Trading Company’s trading of futures, forward, swap, and option contracts, if applicable, on commodities is done primarily on U.S. and foreign commodity exchanges. The Partnership/Trading Company engage in such trading through commodity brokerage accounts maintained with MS&Co. and JPM, as applicable.
Generally, a limited partner in the Trading Company may withdraw all or part of its capital contribution and undistributed profits, if any, from the Trading Company as of the end of any month (the “Redemption Date”) after a request has been made to the Trading Manager at least three days in advance of the Redemption Date. Such withdrawals are classified as a liability when the limited partner elects to redeem and informs the Trading Company. However, a limited partner may request a withdrawal as of the end of any day if such request is received by the Trading Manager at least three days in advance of the proposed withdrawal date.
Management fees, Administrative and General Partner fees, ongoing placement agent fees and incentive fees are charged at the Partnership level. All clearing fees paid to MS&Co. are borne directly by the Partnership for its direct trading. In addition, clearing fees are borne by the Trading Company and allocated to the Trading Company’s limited partners, including the Partnership. Professional fees are borne by the Trading Company and allocated to the Partnership, and also charged directly at the Partnership level.
 
 
At December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Partnership owned 100% of CMF Winton. It is the Partnership’s intention to continue to invest in the Trading Company. The performance of the Partnership is directly affected by the performance of the Trading Company. Effective October 1, 2023, the Partnership has consolidated its wholly owned investment in the Trading Company. Expenses to investors as a result of investment in the Trading Company are approximately the same as they would be if the Partnership traded directly and redemption rights are not affected.
