WHEREAS, in accordance with the Act, each of the Members desires to enter into this Agreement to set forth the respective rights, powers and interests of the Members with respect to the Company and to provide for the management of the business and operations of the Company.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and of the mutual promises and agreements made herein and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows.

ARTICLE III - CAPITAL CONTRIBUTIONS; CAPITAL ACCOUNTS

3.1. Capital Contributions. Each Member shall contribute to the capital (a “Capital Contribution”) of the Company.

3.2. Membership Interests. Upon making the initial Capital Contribution specified on Schedule I (each an “Initial Capital Contribution”), each Member shall be entitled to the rights of a Member under this Agreement.

3.5. Capital Accounts. A capital account (a “Capital Account”) shall be established and maintained for each Member on the books of the Company. The initial balance in each Member’s Capital Account shall equal such Member’s Initial Capital Contribution. Such Capital Account shall be increased by any Additional Capital Contributions made by such Member and any increases in the Company’s Net Assets allocated to such Member pursuant to Section 4.1 and shall be decreased by any decreases in the Company’s Net Assets allocated to such Member pursuant to Section 4.1, any amounts allocated to such Member pursuant to Section 4.2, and the amount of money and fair market value of any property distributed or withdrawn to such Member pursuant to Sections 3.8, 5.2, and 10.4.

3.6. Return of Capital Account. Except as otherwise provided in Sections 5.2 or 10.2 or in the Act, no Member shall have the right to withdraw, or receive any return of, all or any portion of such Member’s Capital Account.

3.7. Interest. No interest shall be paid by the Company on Capital Contributions or on balances in Members’ Capital Accounts.

3.8. Distributions. Any distributions made by the Company must be made, except as may be necessary to ensure that the assets of the Company not be deemed to constitute “plan assets” within the meaning of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), among the Members based on their respective Capital Accounts, or as otherwise determined by the Trading Manager. The Company does not intend to make any distributions but may do so in the Trading Manager’s sole discretion.

ARTICLE IV - ALLOCATIONS AND DISTRIBUTIONS

4.1. Allocations of Increases/Decreases of Net Assets to Capital Accounts. As of the close of business on the last Business Day of each month and at any other such time as determined by the Trading Manager in its sole discretion (a “Determination Date”) during each Fiscal Year of the Company, any increase or decrease in Net Assets (as defined in Section 5.3) from the immediately preceding Determination Date (or in the case of the first Determination Date, from the date on which the Company received the initial Capital Contribution), prior to the allocations of commissions, fees and expenses prescribed in Section 4.2, shall be allocated to the Members (in accordance with the ratio of the balance in each such Member’s Capital Account as of the beginning of such accounting period to the aggregate of such cash balances in all such Members’ Capital Accounts as of the beginning of such accounting period). For the purposes of this Agreement, a “Business Day” is each day in which the New York Stock Exchange is open for business.

4.2. Allocation of Commissions, Fees and Expenses to Capital Accounts. As of the close of business on the last Business Day of each month and at any other such time as determined by the Trading Manager in its sole discretion, following the allocation provided in Section 4.1, brokerage commissions, advisory fees, management fees, administrative fees and other expenses due from the Company to third parties, in respect of the Company’s activities on behalf of the Members, shall be allocated to the Members in such proportions as the Trading Manager shall determine in its sole discretion.

4.3. Tax Allocations .. Items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit from the Company’s operations as determined for federal income tax purposes shall be allocated to the Members in such manner as the Trading Manager may determine and shall equitably reflect the allocations made pursuant to Section 4.1 and Section 4.2, including specially allocating realized gains or losses to Members withdrawing all or part of their Capital Accounts so as to equalize, as nearly as possible such Members’ tax basis in their withdrawn Membership Interests and their Capital Accounts with respect to such Membership Interests.

4.4. Tax Withholding. The Trading Manager is hereby authorized to withhold or withdraw from each Member’s Capital Account any amount which the Trading Manager reasonably believes may be owing by the Company to any federal or state tax authority in respect of such Member’s investment in the Company.

ARTICLE V - TRANSFERS AND ASSIGNMENTS; WITHDRAWALS

5.1. Transfers and Assignments. No Member may assign, transfer, pledge, or sell all or any part of its Membership Interest to any other party (including, without limitation, any other Member) without the consent of the Trading Manager, who may withhold its consent for any or no reason. Any assignee, transferee, purchaser, or pledgee which is permitted to acquire a Membership Interest (pursuant to the required consent by the Trading Manager) shall be admitted to the Company as a substitute Member (each a “Substitute Member”) (no transferee or assignee of a Membership Interest shall be recognized which does not itself become a Member) and shall succeed to the Capital Account or portion thereof assigned, transferred, pledged, or sold. No transfer, sale, pledge or assignment of Membership Interests shall be effective or recognized by the Company if such transfer, sale, pledge or assignment would result in the termination of the Company for federal income tax purposes, and any attempted transfer or assignment in violation hereof shall be ineffective to transfer, sale, pledge or assign any such Membership Interests. Any transferee, pledge, purchaser or assignee of Membership Interests who has not been admitted to the Company as a Substituted Member shall not have any of the rights of a Member, except that such person shall receive that share of capital and profits and shall have that right of redemption to which his transferor, seller, pledgor or assignor would otherwise have been entitled and shall remain subject to the other terms of this Agreement binding upon the Members. No Member shall have any right to approve of any person becoming a Substituted Member. The Member shall bear all costs (including any attorneys’ and accountants’ fees) related to such transfer or assignment of his Membership Interests (unless waived in whole or part by the Trading Manager).

In the event that the Trading Manager consents to the admission of a Substituted Member pursuant to this Section 5.1, the Trading Manager is hereby authorized to take such actions as may be necessary to reflect such substitution of a Member. Each Substituted Member shall execute and acknowledge such instruments (including a subscription agreement), in form and substance satisfactory to the Trading Manager, as the Trading Manager deems necessary or desirable to effectuate such admission and to confirm the agreement of the Substituted Member to be bound by all terms and provisions of this Agreement. Further, each Substituted Member agrees upon the request of the Trading Manager, to execute such certificates or other documents and perform such acts as the Trading Manager deems appropriate to preserve the limited liability status of the Company after the completion of any assignment, transfer, sale or pledge of a Membership Interest(s).

5.2. Withdrawals by Members. A Member may withdraw all or a portion of the Net Assets attributable to its Capital Account as of the last Business Day of each Month or at any other such time as determined by the Trading Manager in its sole discretion (a “Withdrawal Date”) upon at least 3 Business Days prior written notice to the Trading Manager (or as otherwise determined by the Trading Manager) provided, that, all liabilities, contingent or otherwise, of the Company (except any liability to Members on account of their Capital Contributions) shall have been paid, or there shall remain property of the Company sufficient to pay them. There shall be no penalty or fee assessed upon any such withdrawal, although the costs of effecting such withdrawal, as determined by the Trading Manager, may be assessed to the withdrawing Member.

All withdrawals shall be paid in cash (U.S. dollars in immediately available funds) or made in-kind, in the sole discretion of the Trading Manager, as promptly as practicable after the Withdrawal Date. No interest shall accrue on any withdrawal proceeds while held by the Company pending payment out to the withdrawing Member. The Trading Manager may suspend withdrawals by the Members if the Trading Manager reasonably determines that (i) extraordinary circumstances exist, including the Company’s inability to liquidate any positions or any other significant administrative or other hardship exists, (ii) the effect of withdrawals would materially impair the Company’s ability to

operate in pursuit of its objectives or (iii) the remaining Members would be unfairly and materially disadvantaged.

The Trading Manager may, at any time, require any Member to redeem all or a portion of such Member’s Capital Account by giving not less than 5 days’ written notice to the Member or without notice in the case of certain events under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”).

5.3. Net Assets. The Company’s “Net Assets” shall be the total assets of the Company (including, but not limited to all cash and cash equivalents, accrued interest and amortization of original issue discount, and the market value of all open futures interests contract positions and other assets) less all liabilities of the Company (including, but not limited to, brokerage commissions that would be payable upon the closing of open futures interest positions, management fees, incentive fees, and extraordinary expenses), determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) consistently applied under the accrual basis of accounting. Unless GAAP require otherwise, the market value of a futures or option contract traded on a U.S. exchange shall mean the settlement price on the exchange on which the particular futures or option contract is traded by the Company on the day with respect to which the Net Assets of the Company is being determined; provided that, if a contract could not be liquidated on such day due to the operation of daily limits or other rules of the exchange upon which that contract 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, or if a contact could not be liquidated on such day due to the exchange being closed for an exchange holiday or otherwise, the settlement price on the most recent preceding day on which the contract could have been liquidated shall be the market value of such contract for such day. The market value of a forward contract or a futures or options contract traded on a non-U.S. exchange or other market shall mean its market value as determined by the Trading Manager on a basis consistently applied for each different variety of contract. The Trading Manager may make any adjustments to a valuation if it determines that such adjustment is necessary to fairly reflect the value of the relevant contract(s).

The Company’s Net Assets shall be determined as of the close of business on each Determination Date during the term of this Agreement and at any other such time as determined by the Trading Manager in its sole discretion.

Appropriate reserves may be created, accrued, and charged against Net Assets by the Trading Manager for contingent liabilities, if any, as of the date of any such contingent liability becomes known to the Trading Manager. Such reserves shall reduce the Net Assets of the Company for all purposes, including withdrawals.

ARTICLE IX - LIABILITY; INDEMNIFICATION

The Trading Manager shall not be liable to the Company, the Members, their respective successors and assigns, nor to any other person, for any act or omission, undertaken in good faith unless such act or omission constituted gross negligence, willful misconduct, bad faith or reckless disregard.

For the purposes of this Article IX, the term “affiliate” of a person shall mean: (i) any natural person, partnership, corporation, association, or other legal entity directly or indirectly owning, controlling, or holding with power to vote 10% or more of the outstanding voting securities of such person; (ii) any partnership, corporation, association, or other legal entity 10% or more of whose outstanding voting securities are directly or indirectly owned, controlled, or held with power to vote by such person; (iii) any natural person, partnership, corporation, association, or other legal entity directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by, or under common control with, such person; or (iv) any officer, director or partner of such person.

Except as otherwise set forth in this Section IX, neither the Trading Manager, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx & Co. Incorporated, nor any “affiliate” (as defined herein) shall be personally liable for the return or repayment of all or any portion of the capital or profits of any Member (or assignee), it being expressly agreed that any such return of capital or profits made pursuant to this Agreement shall be made solely from the assets of the Company.

Notwithstanding any of the foregoing to the contrary, the provisions of this Article IX shall not be construed so as to relieve (or attempt to relieve) the Trading Manager of any liability to the extent (but only to the extent) that such liability may not be waived, modified or limited under applicable law, but shall be construed so as to effectuate the provisions of this Article IX to the fullest extent permitted by law.

ARTICLE X - DISSOLUTION AND WINDING UP

10.1. Events Causing Dissolution. The Company shall be dissolved upon the first of the following events to occur:

(a) The sole determination of the Trading Manager; or

(b) The written consent of the Members holding not less than a Majority in Interest, with or without cause. “Majority in Interest” shall mean Members, other than Demeter, that at the time in question have Net Assets attributable to their Capital Accounts aggregating in excess of 50% of all Net Assets of all Members, other than Demeter; or

10.2. Winding Up. If the Company is dissolved pursuant to Section 10.1, the Company’s affairs shall be wound up as soon as reasonably practicable in the manner set forth below.

(a) The winding up of the Company’s affairs shall be supervised by the Trading Manager, as liquidator, or such other person as may be selected by the Trading Manager.

(b) In winding up the affairs of the Company, the liquidator shall have full right and unlimited discretion, in the name of and for and on behalf of the Company to:

(i)

prosecute and defend civil, criminal or administrative suits;

(ii)

collect Company assets, including obligations owed to the Company;

(iii)

settle and close the Company’s business;

(iv)

close out all open futures interest positions held in the name of the Company, having due regard for the activity and condition of the relevant market and general financial and economic conditions;

(v)

pay all reasonable costs and other expenses incurred in connection with the winding up out of the proceeds of the disposition of Company property;

(vi)

discharge the Company’s known liabilities and, if necessary, to set up, for a period not to exceed five (5) years after the date of dissolution, such cash reserves as the liquidator may deem reasonably necessary for any contingent or unforeseen liabilities or obligations of the Company;

(vii)

distribute any remaining assets of the Company to the Members as contemplated by Section 10.4;

(viii)

prepare, execute, acknowledge and file articles of dissolution under the Act and any other certificates, tax returns or instruments necessary or advisable under any applicable law to effect the winding up and termination of the Company; and

(ix)

exercise, without further authorization or consent of any of the parties hereto or their legal representatives or successors in interest, all of the powers conferred upon the Members under the terms of this Agreement to the extent necessary or desirable in the good faith judgment of the liquidator to perform its duties and functions.

10.3. Compensation of Liquidator. The liquidator, if the Trading Manager, shall act without compensation. If the liquidator is not the Trading Manager, the compensation due to the liquidator shall be mutually agreed by the Trading Manager and the liquidator.

10.4. Distribution of Company Property. Upon completion of all desired sales of Company property, and after payment of all selling costs and expenses, the liquidator shall distribute the proceeds of such sales, and any Company property that is to be distributed in-kind, to the following groups in the following order of priority:

(i)

to satisfy Company liabilities to creditors, whether by payment or establishment of reserves;

(ii)

to the Members, in accordance with the positive balances in their respective Capital Accounts determined after allocating all items for all periods prior to and including the date of distribution; and

(iii)

thereafter, to the Members, pro rata.

All distributions required under this Section 10.4 shall be made to the Members by the end of the taxable year in which the liquidation occurs or, if later, within ninety (90) days after the date of such liquidation.

10.5. Final Audit. Within a reasonable time following the completion of the liquidation (and, in all events, in full compliance with all applicable CFTC rules), the liquidator shall supply to each of the Members a statement that shall set forth the assets and the liabilities of the Company as of the date of complete liquidation and each Member’s portion of the distributions made pursuant to Section 10.4.

10.6. Deficit Capital Accounts. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, and notwithstanding any custom or rule of law to the contrary, no Member shall be obligated to contribute any amount to the Company to restore a negative balance of such Member’s Capital Account.

ARTICLE XI - MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

11.1. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which will be deemed an original but all of which will constitute one and the same.

11.2. Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement among the parties hereto and contains all of the agreements among such parties with respect to the subject matter hereof. This Agreement supersedes any and all other agreements, either oral or written, between such parties with respect to the subject matter hereof.

11.3. Partial Invalidity. Wherever possible, each provision hereof shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but in case any one or more of the provisions contained herein shall, for any reason, be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent, but only to the extent, of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without invalidating the remainder of such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision or provisions or any other provisions hereof, unless such a construction would be unreasonable.

11.4. Amendment. Except as expressly provided herein, this Agreement may be amended by, and only by, the unanimous written consent of the Members. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, the Trading Manager may make any amendment to this Agreement that is not adverse to the Members without obtaining the consent of the Members, including, but not limited to: (i) change the name of the Company or cause the Company to transact business under another name; (ii) clarify any inaccuracy or any ambiguity, or reconcile any inconsistent provisions herein, (iii) effect the intent of the allocations proposed herein to the maximum extent possible in the event of a change in the Code or the interpretations thereof affecting such allocations; (iv) attempt to ensure that the Company is not taxed as an association taxable as a corporation for federal income tax purposes; (v) qualify or maintain the qualification of the Company as a limited liability company in any jurisdiction; (vi) delete or add any provision of or to this Agreement required to be deleted or added by the staff of the CFTC, any other federal agency, any state “Blue Sky” official, or other governmental official, or in order to comply with applicable law; (vi) make any modification to the Agreement to reflect the admission of additional Members; (vii) make any amendment that is appropriate or necessary, in the opinion of the Trading Manager, to prevent the Company or the Trading Manager or its directors, officers or controlling persons from in any manner being subject to the provisions of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended, or “plan asset” regulations adopted under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”); (viii) take such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to avoid the assets of the Company being treated for any purpose of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code as assets of any “employee benefit plan” as defined in and subject to ERISA or of any plan as defined in and subject to Section 4975 of the Code (or any corresponding provisions of succeeding law) or to avoid the Company’s engaging in a prohibited transaction as defined in Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975(c) of the Code, and (ix) make any amendment that is appropriate or necessary, in the opinion of the Trading Manager, to qualify the Company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and any persons under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended and the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended, if the Trading Manager reasonably believes that doing so is necessary. Any such supplemental or amendatory agreement shall be adhered to and have the same force and effect from and after its effective date as if the same had originally been embodied in, and formed a part of this Agreement.

11.5. Binding Effect. Subject to the provisions of this Agreement relating to transferability, this Agreement will be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties, and their respective distributees, heirs, successors and assigns.

11.6. Governing Law. The validity and construction of this Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of the State of Delaware, including, specifically, the Act (without regard to its choice of law principles); provided, however, that causes of action for violations of federal or state securities laws shall not be governed by this Section 11.6. If any action or proceeding shall be brought by a party to this Agreement or to enforce any right or remedy under this Agreement, each party hereto hereby consents and will submit to the jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York or any Federal court sitting in the County, City and State of New York. Any action or proceeding brought by any party to this Agreement to enforce any right, assert any claim or obtain any relief whatsoever in connection with this Agreement shall be brought by such party exclusively in the courts of the State of New York or any federal court sitting in the County, City and State of New York.

11.7. Effect of Waiver or Consent. A waiver or consent, express or implied, to or of any breach or default by any person in the performance by that person of its obligations with respect to the Company is not a consent or waiver to or of any other breach or default in the performance by that person of the same or any other obligations of that person with respect to the Company. Failure on the part of a person to complain of any act of any person or to declare any person in default with respect to the Company, irrespective of how long that failure continues, does not constitute a waiver by that person of its rights with respect to that default until the applicable statute-of-limitations period has run.

11.8. Further Assurances. In connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, each Member shall execute and deliver any additional documents and instruments and perform any additional acts that may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate and perform the provisions of this Agreement and such transactions.
