IN ADDITION, RESTRICTIONS ON REDEMPTIONS FROM A COMMODITY POOL MAY AFFECT YOUR ABILITY TO WITHDRAW YOUR PARTICIPATION IN THE POOL.

FURTHER, COMMODITY POOLS AND OTHER FORMS OF MANAGED COMMODITY ACCOUNTS MAY BE SUBJECT TO SUBSTANTIAL CHARGES FOR MANAGEMENT, AND ADVISORY AND BROKERAGE FEES. IT MAY BE NECESSARY FOR THOSE POOLS AND ACCOUNTS THAT ARE SUBJECT TO THESE CHARGES TO MAKE SUBSTANTIAL TRADING PROFITS TO AVOID DEPLETION OR EXHAUSTION OF THEIR ASSETS. YOU MUST BE PROVIDED A COMPLETE EXPLANATION OF EACH EXPENSE TO BE CHARGED ANY OR OTHER FORM OF MANAGED ACCOUNT BEFORE YOU INVEST TOGETHER WITH A STATEMENT OF THE PERCENTAGE RETURN NECESSARY TO BREAK EVEN AT THE END OF YOUR FIRST YEAR IN THE INVESTMENT.

ALL TRADING INVOLVES HIGH RISK; PAST PERFORMANCE IS NOT NECESSARILY INDICATIVE OF FUTURE RESULTS.

SOME OF THE MANAGERS RECOMMENDED BY FIC PRESENT ACTUAL TRADING RESULTS WHILE OTHERS APPLY THE TRADE METHODS THEY USE ON HISTORICAL PRICE AND OTHER PAST MARKET DATA. THE USE OF BACKTESTING METHODS ON HISTORICAL AND OTHER DATA ARE CALLED HYPOTHETICAL RESULTS. HYPOTHETICAL RESULTS ARE NOT BASED ON ACTUAL TRADING. THEY DO NOT INDICATE THAT ANY PROFITS HAVE EVER RESULTED FROM ACTUAL TRADING USING THE MANAGER’S TRADING SYSTEM.
