Partnership Organization: |
Diversified Multi-Advisor Futures Fund L.P. II (the “Partnership”) is a limited partnership organized
under the partnership laws of the State of New York on May 10, 1994 to engage, directly or indirectly, in the speculative trading of a diversified portfolio of commodity interests including futures contracts, options, swaps and forward
contracts. The sectors traded included currencies, energy, grains, indices, metals, softs, livestock and U.S. and non-U.S. interest rates. The commodity interests that are traded by the Partnership directly and through its investment in
the Funds (as defined in Note 5 “Investment in Funds”) are volatile and involve a high degree of market risk. The Partnership was authorized to sell 100,000 redeemable units of limited partnership interest (“Redeemable Units”)
during its initial offering period. The Partnership no longer offers Redeemable Units for sale.
Ceres Managed Futures LLC, 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. (“Citigroup”) indirectly owns a minority equity interest in MSSB Holdings. Citigroup 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. As of December 31, 2011, all trading decisions for the Partnership are made by the Advisors (defined below).
The General Partner and each limited partner share in the profits and losses of the Partnership 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.
The Partnership will be liquidated upon the first to occur of the following: December 31, 2014; the net asset value per Redeemable
Unit decreases to less than $400 per Redeemable Unit as of a close of any business day; or under certain other circumstances as defined in the limited partnership agreement of the Partnership (the “Limited Partnership Agreement”).
