Business (a) General Development of Business. Smith Barney Mid-West Futures Fund L. P. II (the "Partnership") is a limited partnership organized on June 3, 1994 under the partnership laws of the State of New York. The objective of the Partnership is to achieve substantial appreciation of its assets through speculative trading, directly and indirectly, in commodity interests, including spot and forward contracts on foreign currencies, commodity options and commodity futures contracts including futures and options contracts involving interest rates, international stock exchange indexes, and base and precious metals. The Partnership commenced trading on September 1, 1994. Redemptions for the quarter ended March 31, 1996 and the years ended December 31, 1995 and 1994 are reported in the Statements of Partners' Capital under "Item 13. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data." The Partnership's trading of futures contracts on commodities is done primarily on United States commodities exchanges and may, to a lesser extent, be done on some foreign commodity exchanges. It engages in such trading through a commodity brokerage account maintained with its commodity broker, Smith Barney Inc. ("SB"). The General Partner Smith Barney Futures Management Inc., a corporation formed under the laws of the State of Delaware, is the General Partner of the Partnership (the "General Partner"). The General Partner is registered as a commodity pool operator and commodity trading advisor with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (the "CFTC"). Registration as a commodity pool operator or as a commodity trading advisor requires annual filings setting forth the organization and identity of the management and controlling persons of the commodity pool operator or commodity trading advisor. In addition, the CFTC has authority under the Commodity Exchange Act, as amended (the "CEA") to require and review books and records of, and review documents prepared by, a commodity pool operator or a commodity trading advisor. The CFTC has adopted regulations which impose certain disclosure, reporting and record-keeping requirements on commodity pool operators and commodity trading advisors. The CFTC is authorized to suspend a person's registration as a commodity pool operator or commodity trading advisor if the CFTC finds that such person's trading practices tend to disrupt orderly market conditions, that any controlling person thereof is subject to an order of the CFTC denying such person trading privileges on any exchange, and in certain other circumstances. The Advisor Under the Limited Partnership Agreement of the Partnership (the "Limited Partnership Agreement") the General Partner has sole 3 responsibility for the administration of the business and affairs of the Partnership, but may delegate trading discretion to one or more trading advisors. The General Partner currently has a Management Agreement in effect with John W. Henry & Company, Inc. (the "Advisor" or "JWH"), pursuant to which the Advisor manages the Partnership's assets. Pursuant to the express terms of the Management Agreement, the Advisor is considered to be an independent contractor of the Partnership. The Advisor has managed the Partnership's assets since the Partnership's commencement of trading. The General Partner selected the Advisor on the basis of the trading strategies employed by the Advisor as well as the Advisor's previous experience in managing commodity trading accounts and the background and experience of the principals of the Advisor. The Advisor has been instructed to use initially only its Financial and Metals Portfolio trading program for the Partnership's account. The Financial and Metals Portfolio participates in four primary financial sectors - world currencies, precious metals, global interest rates, and U.S. and non-U.S. stock indexes - and initiates trades according to trend-emergence and computerized determination of relative risk. The Financial and Metals Portfolio is designed to take advantage of global price trends, while maintaining a long-term perspective. Trading is based upon the Advisor's disciplined, technical trading strategy which includes the use of sophisticated risk control techniques. The Financial and Metals Portfolio may take long, short or neutral positions in markets within the four groups traded, may use stop orders and commits 10-to-30% of equity to margin on open positions. Because assets are concentrated in financial futures and metals only, volatility can be higher than in a more diversified portfolio. The trading strategy used by the Advisor for the Partnership will generally be the same as the strategy used for all other accounts in the Financial and Metals Portfolio with similar equity. From time to time accounts in the portfolio that trade at other commodity brokers may not include all of the markets which the Advisor intends to trade for the Partnership due to operational difficulties that certain commodity brokers have in providing access to certain foreign markets. Nonetheless, the trading strategy the Advisor will utilize for the Partnership will in fact be materially similar to the strategy used for other Financial and Metals Portfolio accounts. The General Partner may, in its discretion, acting in the best interests of the limited partners, allocate and reallocate all or a portion of the Partnership's assets among the other trading programs operated by the Advisor; however, the General Partner does not anticipate any material changes in the allocation of the Partnership's assets for the remainder of 1996. 4 The quantitative models of the Advisor are guided by a proprietary set of mathematical formulas that provide signals for investment decisions integrated within a disciplined money-management framework. The Advisor's trading techniques focus on long-term trends rather than day-to-day price fluctuations. Positions held for two to four months are not unusual, and positions have been held for more than one year. Historically, only thirty to forty percent of all trades made pursuant to the trading methods have been profitable. Large profits on a few trades in positions that typically exist for several months have produced favorable overall results. Generally, the majority of losing trades have been liquidated within weeks. The greatest cumulative percentage decline in daily net asset value the Advisor has experienced in any single program was nearly sixty percent. Investors should understand that similar or greater drawdowns are possible in the future. The Advisor at its sole discretion may override computer-generated trading signals, and may at times use discretion in the application of its quantitative models which may affect performance positively or negatively. Subjective aspects of the Advisor's trading systems also include the determination of program leverage, commencement of trading in an account, contracts traded, contract month selection, markets traded, margin utilization, and effective trade execution. In an effort to maintain and improve performance, the Advisor has engaged, and continues to engage, in an extensive program of research. While the basic parameters underlying the firm's investment approach have remained intact throughout its history, the potential benefits of employing more than one trading parameter alternatively, or in varying combinations, is a subject of continual testing, review and evaluation. Extensive research and analysis may suggest substitution of alternative parameters with respect to particular contracts in light of relative differences in historical trading performance achieved through testing different parameters. In addition, risk management research and analysis may suggest modifications regarding the relative weighting among various contracts, the addition or deletion of particular contracts for a program or a change in the degree of leverage employed. As capital in JWH trading program increases, additional emphasis and weighting may be placed on certain markets which have historically demonstrated the greatest liquidity and profitability. Furthermore, the weighting of capital committed to various markets in the investment programs is dynamic, and the Advisor may vary the weighting at its discretion as market conditions, liquidity, position limit considerations and other factors warrant. Investors will generally not be informed of changes. Leverage adjustments have been and continue to be an integral part of the Advisor's trading methods. At its 5 discretion, the Advisor may adjust leverage in certain markets or entire trading programs. Leverage adjustments may be made at certain times for some trading programs but not for others. Factors which may affect the decision to adjust leverage include ongoing research, program volatility, current market volatility, risk exposure, and subjective judgment and evaluation of these and other general market conditions. Such decisions to change leverage may positively or negatively affect performance, and will alter risk exposure for an account. Leverage adjustments may lead to greater profits or losses, more frequent and larger margin calls, and greater brokerage expense. No assurance is given that such leverage adjustments will be to the financial advantage of the Partnership. The Advisor reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to adjust its leverage policy without notification to the Partnership. The Advisor has developed procedures for trading fund accounts, such as the Partnership, that provide for the addition, redemption and/or reallocation of capital. Investors who purchase or redeem units in a fund are most frequently permitted to do so at a price equal to the net asset value per unit on the close of business on the last business day of the month or quarter. In addition, funds often may reallocate capital among advisors at the close of business on the last business day of the month. In order to provide market exposure commensurate with equity in the account on the date of these transactions, the Advisor's general practice is to adjust positions as near as possible to the close of business on the last trading date of the month. The intention is to provide for additions, redemptions and reallocations at a net asset value per unit that will be the same for each of these transactions and to eliminate possible variation in net asset value per unit that could occur as a result of inter-day price changes when additions are calculated on the first day of the subsequent month. Therefore, the Advisor may, in its sole discretion, adjust its investment of the assets associated with the addition, redemption and reallocation of capital as near as possible to the close of business on the last business day of the month to reflect the amount then available for trading. Based on the Advisor's determination of liquidity or other market conditions, the Advisor may decide to commence trading earlier in the day on, or before, the last business day of the month. In the case of an addition to a fund account, the Advisor may also, in its sole discretion, delay the actual start of trading for those new assets. No assurance is given that the Advisor will be able to achieve the objectives described above in connection with funding level changes. The use of discretion in the application of this procedure by the Advisor may affect performance positively or negatively. The Investment Policy Committee is one vehicle for decision-making at JWH about the content and application of JWH trading programs. Composition of the Investment Policy Committee, and participation in its discussions and decisions by non-members, may vary over time. 6 Redemption of Units A limited partner may require the Partnership to redeem some or all of its Units (minimum 10 Units) at Net Asset Value per Unit as of the last day of a month (the "Redemption Date"). No redemption will be permitted if after giving effect to the redemption the limited partner owns fewer than 10 Units. The right to redeem is contingent upon the Partnership's having property sufficient to discharge its liabilities on the Redemption Date and upon receipt by the General Partner by registered mail of a request for redemption at least 15 days prior to the Redemption Date. Because Net Asset Value fluctuates daily, limited partners will not know the Net Asset Value applicable to their redemption at the time a notice of redemption is submitted. Payment for a redeemed interest will be made within 10 business days following the Redemption Date. There is no fee charged to limited partners in connection with redemptions. The General Partner reserves the right in its sole discretion to permit redemptions more frequently than monthly and to waive the 15-day notice period. The General Partner may also, at its sole discretion and upon 10 days' notice to a limited partner, require that any limited partner redeem his Units if such redemption is in the best interests of the Partnership. Fees and Expenses Selling Price Per Unit $ 1,000.00 -------- Interest Income(1) $ (37.60) Brokerage Fees and Commissions(2) $ 66.41 Advisor's Management Fee(3) $ 38.85 General Partner's Administrative Fee(4) $ 9.71 Offering Expenses(5) $ .83 Other Operating Expenses(6) $ 1.66 Amount of Trading Income Required for the Partnership's Net Asset Value per Unit at the End of One Year to Equal the Selling Price per Unit $ 79.86 Percentage of Selling Price per Unit 7.99% Break-Even Point. The break-even point per Unit (that is, the trading profit the Partnership must realize in the first year of a limited partner's investment so that such investment at the end of the year is equal to its value at the beginning of the year), assuming a limited partner purchases Units at $1,000 each as of the beginning of the year and redeems its Units at the end of the first year of its investment, is 7.99%, or $79.86 per Unit. Each of the above fees and expenses have been calculated in a sequence similar to the actual methodology used by the Partnership. Such fee and expense amounts, and the percentage of selling price per Unit, reflect the Partnership's effective expense amounts. For example, the brokerage fee amount of $66.41 has been calculated by adding interest income of $37.60 to the selling price per Unit of $1,000 and multiplying the result by 7 the brokerage fee and commission rate of 6.4%. The Advisor's management fee and the General Partner's administrative fee have been calculated on the basis of assets after the addition of the interest income and the subtraction of the brokerage commissions. (1) Interest Income. All of the Partnership's funds are deposited in cash in its trading account at SB. SB deposits the cash in segregated bank accounts as required by CFTC regulations. At December 31, 1995, the amount of cash held for minimum margin requirements was $4,934,929. Total cash in the Partnership account was $37,848,599. Such accounts do not earn interest. However, SB will pay the Partnership interest on 80% of the average daily equity maintained in cash in its accounts during each month at the rate of the average non-competitive yield of 30-day U.S. Treasury Bills as determined at the weekly auctions thereof during the month. (2) Brokerage Fees and Commissions. Pursuant to the terms of the customer agreement entered into with SB (the "Customer Agreement"), the Partnership is obligated to pay a monthly commodity brokerage fee equal to 1/2 of 1% of month-end Net Assets (6% per year) in lieu of brokerage commissions on a per trade basis. The brokerage fee does not include exchange, clearing, floor brokerage and NFA fees which will be borne by the Partnership and which are payable to third parties on a per transaction basis regardless of how many or how few trades are executed during the month. Although it is impossible to predict exactly the amount of these per transaction fees payable by the Partnership to third parties, based on the past performance of the Advisor, the aggregate of such fees is estimated at approximately .4% of Net Assets per year. In 1995, the Partnership paid approximately $66,000 in such fees, which is equal to approximately .2% of the Partnership's Net Assets at December 31, 1995. Pursuant to the Customer Agreement, SB will execute transactions for the Partnership's account in accordance with orders placed by the Advisor. The services to be provided by SB include the execution of orders and the rendering of bookkeeping and clerical assistance to the Partnership and the General Partner. The Customer Agreement may be terminated upon notice by either party. (3) The Advisor's Fee. The Partnership pays the Advisor a monthly management fee equal to 4% per year of month-end Net Assets. In addition, the Partnership pays to the Advisor an incentive fee equal to 15% of New Trading Profits earned by the Advisor during each quarter. The incentive fee is not included in computing the break-even point per Unit since it is paid, if at all, after payment of all expenses. New Trading Profits means the excess, if any, of Net Assets managed by the Advisor at the end of the fiscal quarter over Net Assets managed by the Advisor at the end of the highest previous fiscal quarter 8 or Net Assets allocated to the Advisor at the date trading commences, whichever is higher, and as further adjusted to eliminate the effect on Net Assets resulting from new capital contributions, redemptions, reallocations or capital distributions, if any, made during the fiscal quarter decreased by interest or other income not directly related to trading activity, earned on the Partnership's assets during the fiscal quarter. For the year ended December 31, 1995, the Partnership paid to the Advisor $1,178,635 in management fees and $829,781 in incentive fees. (4) The General Partner's Administrative Fee. The Partnership pays the General Partner a monthly administrative fee equal to 1% per year of month-end Net Assets of the Partnership in return for its services to the Partnership. (5) Offering Expenses. SB initially bore all of the initial offering and organizational expenses of the Partnership which were approximately $128,000. Offering expenses incurred in the Continuous Offering are estimated at approximately $25,000 per year (.09% of Net Assets) and will be borne by the Partnership. (6) Other Operating Expenses. The Partnership pays its ongoing legal, accounting, filing and reporting fees estimated at approximately $50,000 per year (or .18% of Net Assets). In 1995, the Partnership incurred approximately $64,000 in such fees. Conflicts of Interest The General Partner is wholly owned by Smith Barney Holdings, Inc., which is the sole owner of SB. Smith Barney Holdings, Inc. is a wholly owned subsidiary of Travelers Group, Inc., a publicly-held company whose shares are listed on the New York Stock Exchange and which is engaged in various financial services and other businesses. The General Partner is the surviving corporation of a merger that occurred on August 2, 1993 merging three commodity pool operators: Smith Barney Futures Partners, Inc., Lehman Brothers Capital Management Corp. and Hutton Commodity Management, Inc. Relationship among the Partnership, the General Partner and SB. The General Partner is an affiliate of SB, which acts as the commodity broker/dealer for the Partnership. Financial Consultants who sell Units in this offering will receive a portion of the brokerage commissions paid to SB. Consequently, these Financial Consultants may have a conflict of interest between their obligations to advise limited partners with respect to the purchase of additional Units or redemption of Units and their interest in continuing to receive commissions and fees from SB. Because the General Partner is an affiliate of SB, the General Partner has a potential conflict of interest in its decision to replace the Partnership's futures commission 9 merchant, if necessary. In addition, the flat rate brokerage fee to be paid by the Partnership to SB may not have been set by "arm's length" negotiation. The General Partner may have a conflict of interest between its responsibility to manage the Partnership for the benefit of the limited partners and its interest in selecting trading advisors that will generate a small number of trades thus incurring small amounts of charges incidental to trading (such as NFA fees) so that Net Assets, from which SB's and the General Partner's fees are paid, remain relatively higher. The General Partner may, in its discretion, allocate and reallocate all or a portion of the Partnership's assets among the trading programs operated by the Advisor, or select and appoint additional or replacement trading advisors, if it is determined that such change is in the best interests of the limited partners. Notwithstanding the potential conflicts of interest resulting from these multiple relationships, the Limited Partnership Agreement specifically permits the General Partner to enter into contracts on behalf of the Partnership with or for the benefit of the General Partner and SB. Such contracts include the Customer Agreement with respect to brokerage services to be entered into by the Partnership and SB. Brokerage Rate to be Charged by the Commodity Broker. Pursuant to the Customer Agreement between the Partnership and SB, SB acts as the commodity broker for the Partnership. Because the General Partner is an affiliate of SB, the General Partner may have a conflict of interest between its responsibility to manage the Partnership for the benefit of the limited partners and its interest in obtaining brokerage rates which are favorable to SB. SB will charge the Partnership a monthly flat rate brokerage fee equal to 6% per year of month-end Net Assets of the Partnership. This rate may be changed at any time by SB. Although the Customer Agreement will be non-exclusive, so that the Partnership will have the right to seek lower brokerage rates from other brokers at any time, the General Partner believes that the arrangements between the Partnership and SB are consistent with arrangements other comparable commodity pools have entered into with other futures commission merchants and are fair to the Partnership and, further, does not intend to negotiate with SB to obtain lower commission rates or to refer brokerage transactions to other firms. Accounts of SB, the General Partner, the Advisor and their Affiliates. The officers, directors and employees of SB, SBFM and the Advisor, as well as SB, SBFM and the Advisor themselves may trade in commodity interests for their own accounts. The records of such trading will not be available for inspection by limited partners. In addition, SB is a futures commission merchant and effects transactions in commodity futures and options for its customers. Thus, it is possible that SB could effect transactions for the Partnership in which the other 10 parties to the transactions are its officers, directors or employees or its customers. Such persons might also compete with the Partnership in making purchases or sales of contracts without knowing that the Partnership is also bidding on such contracts. ERISA Considerations The Units in the Partnership which are offered hereby may be purchased by employee benefit plans subject to the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA"). The phrase "employee benefit plan" refers to plans of various types including corporate pension and profit-sharing plans, "simplified employee pension plans", so-called "Keogh" (H.R. 10) plans for self-employed individuals, including partners, and "individual retirement accounts" (or "IRAs") for persons (including employees and self-employed persons) who receive compensation income. Units may not be purchased by an employee benefit plan if the selling agent or its financial consultants, the General Partner or their affiliates (a) exercise any discretionary authority or discretionary control respecting management of such employee benefit plan, (b) exercise any authority or control respecting management or disposition of the assets of such employee benefit plan, (c) render investment advice for a fee or other compensation, direct or indirect, with respect to any moneys or other property of such employee benefit plan, (d) have any authority or responsibility to render investment advice with respect to any moneys or other property of such employee benefit plan, or (e) have any discretionary authority or discretionary responsibility in the administration of such employee benefit plan. For the purposes of this paragraph, "investment advice" shall mean rendering investment advice as to the value of securities or other property, or making recommendations as to the advisability of investing in securities, directly or indirectly, and either (i) having discretionary authority or control, whether or not pursuant to an agreement, arrangement or understanding, with respect to purchasing or selling securities or other property for the plan, or (ii) rendering such investment advice on a regular basis to the employee benefit plan pursuant to a mutual agreement, arrangement or understanding, written or otherwise, between such person and the employee benefit plan or a fiduciary with respect to such employee benefit plan, that such services will serve as a primary basis for investment decisions with respect to assets of the employee benefit plan, and that such person will render individualized investment advice to the employee benefit plan based on the particular needs of the employee benefit plan regarding such matters, as, among other things, investment policies or strategy, overall portfolio composition, or diversification of plan investments. Under ERISA, a fiduciary of an employee benefit plan is required, among other things, to discharge his duties toward such 11 plan with the care, skill, prudence and diligence under the circumstances then prevailing that a prudent man acting in a like capacity and familiar with such matters would use in the conduct of an enterprise of a like character and with like aims. In considering an investment in the Partnership of a portion of the assets of an employee benefit plan, a fiduciary having investment responsibilities with respect to an employee benefit plan should give appropriate consideration to those facts and circumstances that, given the scope of his or her investment duties, he or she knows or should know are relevant to investment in the Partnership, including the role the investment in the Partnership plays in that portion of the plan's investment portfolio with respect to which the fiduciary has investment duties. A fiduciary having investment responsibilities with respect to an employee benefit plan should consult regulations of the Department of Labor to determine whether he or she has made appropriate consideration of relevant factors in investing in the Partnership. In addition to any factors which must be considered by such fiduciary with respect to investment of assets of an employee benefit plan in the Partnership under the above regulation, such fiduciary should also consider (i) whether the investment is in accordance with the documents and instruments governing said plan, (ii) whether the investment satisfies the diversification rules of Section 404(a)(1)(C) of ERISA, if applicable, (iii) whether the investment will result in unrelated business taxable income to the plan, (iv) whether the investment provides sufficient liquidity, (v) the need to value the assets of the plan annually, and (vi) whether the investment is prudent. Assets of employee benefit plans ("plan assets") are generally subject to the fiduciary duty provisions of ERISA and the prohibited transaction provisions of ERISA and section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). ERISA does not define "plan assets", however, the Department of Labor has published a final regulation defining the term "plan assets" (the "Final Regulation") for purposes of Title I of ERISA and section 4975 of the Code. Under the Final Regulation, generally, when a plan makes an equity investment in another entity, the underlying assets of that entity will be considered plan assets unless (i) the equity interest is a "publicly offered" security or a security issued by an investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (ii) the entity is an "operating company", or (iii) equity participation by "benefit plan investors" is not "significant". The Units will not be deemed to be "publicly offered" securities for purposes of the Final Regulation. In addition, the Partnership is not an "operating company" within the meaning of the Final Regulation. The final exception to the "plan assets" rule is for investment in entities in which there is not "significant" investment by "benefit plan investors". "Benefit plan investors" include employee benefit plans subject to ERISA 12 as well as plans not subject to ERISA, such as governmental plans, IRAs and non-U.S. plans. Investment by benefit plan investors is not "significant" as defined in the Final Regulation if the aggregate investment by benefit plan investors in each class of equity securities of the investment entity is less than 25%. Determinations of the percentage of participation by benefit plan investors must be made after each investment or redemption, and investments held by the investment entity's managers, investment advisers and their affiliates must be disregarded. The Partnership intends to qualify under the significant plan exception in the Final Regulation by monitoring the percentage investment by benefit plan investors and maintaining it below 25%. In order to accomplish this, the subscription agreement requires that an employee benefit plan must redeem its Units upon notice from the General Partner. In the unlikely event that the Partnership were deemed to hold plan assets, prohibited transactions could arise under ERISA and section 4975 of the Code. In addition, investment by a fiduciary of an employee benefit plan could be deemed an improper delegation of investment authority, and the fiduciary could be liable, either directly or under the co-fiduciary rules of ERISA, for the acts of the General Partner. Additional issues relating to "plan assets" and "prohibited transactions" of ERISA and the Code arise by virtue of the General Partner's ownership of interests in the Partnership and the possible relationship between an affiliate of the General Partner and any employee benefit plan which may purchase Units. Further, certain transactions between the Partnership and the General Partner and certain affiliates of the General Partner could be prohibited transactions. It should be noted that even if the Partnership's assets are not deemed to be plan assets, the Department of Labor has stated in Interpretive Bulletin 75-2 (29 C.F.R. ss.2509.75-2, as amended by the Final Regulation) that it would consider a fiduciary who makes or retains an investment in a partnership for the purpose of avoiding application of the fiduciary responsibility provisions of ERISA to be in contravention of the fiduciary provisions of ERISA. The Department of Labor indicated further that if a plan invests in or retains its investment in a partnership and as part of the arrangement it is expected that the partnership will enter into a transaction with a party in interest to the plan (within the meaning of ERISA) which involves a direct or indirect transfer to or use by the party in interest of any assets of the plan, the plan's investment in the partnership would be a prohibited transaction under ERISA. A prohibited transaction may result in the imposition of potential personal liability upon fiduciaries of employee benefit plans subject to ERISA and an excise tax under section 13 4975 of the Code upon the fiduciary or other disqualified person with respect to the Plan. A fiduciary that has engaged in a prohibited transaction would be required to (i) restore to the plan any profit realized on the transaction and (ii) make good to the plan any losses suffered by the plan as a result of such investment. The fiduciary or other disqualified person involved would be liable to pay an excise tax of 5% of the amount involved in the prohibited transaction for each year in which the investment is in place and would be required to eliminate the prohibited transaction by reversing the transaction and making good to the plan any losses resulting from the prohibited transaction. If the transaction is not corrected within a certain time period, the fiduciary or other disqualified person could also be liable for an additional excise tax in an amount equal to 100% of the amount involved. In addition to liability for plan losses, ERISA imposes a civil penalty against fiduciaries of employee benefit plans who breach the prudence or other fiduciary standards of ERISA and against non-fiduciaries who knowingly participate in the transaction giving rise to the breach. A prohibited transaction by an employee benefit plan fiduciary would constitute a breach of the ERISA fiduciary standards. The civil penalty is equal to 20% of the amount recovered from a fiduciary or non-fiduciary with respect to such breach or knowing participation pursuant to a settlement agreement with the United States Secretary of Labor or a court order resulting from a proceeding instituted by the Secretary. The penalty may be waived and, in any event, would be offset to the extent of the responsible party's liability for excise tax under section 4975 of the Code. Each limited partner will be furnished with monthly statements and annual reports which include the Net Asset Value per Unit. The General Partner believes that these statements will be sufficient to permit plan fiduciaries to provide an annual valuation of plan investments as required by ERISA; however, fiduciaries should note that they have the ultimate responsibility for providing such valuation. Accordingly, plan fiduciaries should consult with their attorneys or other advisors regarding their obligations under ERISA with respect to making such valuations. Plan fiduciaries should understand the illiquid nature of an investment in the Partnership and that a secondary market may not exist for a Unit. Accordingly, plan fiduciaries should review both anticipated and unanticipated liquidity needs for their respective plans, particularly those for a participant's termination of employment, retirement, death, disability or plan termination. Plan fiduciaries should be aware that distributions to participants may be required to commence in the year after the participant attains age 70-1/2. (b) Financial information about industry segments. The Partnership's business consists of only one segment, speculative 14 trading of commodity interests, including forward contracts on foreign currencies, commodity options and commodity futures contracts (including futures contracts on U. S. Treasury Bills and other financial instruments, foreign currencies and stock indices). The Partnership's net income (loss) from operations for the quarter ended March 31, 1996, the year ended December 31, 1995 and the period from September 1, 1994 (commencement of operations) to December 31, 1994 are set forth under "Item 2. Financial Information." The Partnership does not engage in sales of goods or services. Partnership capital as of December 31, 1995 was $38,876,007. (c) Narrative description of business. See Paragraphs (a) and (b) above. (i) through (x) - not applicable. (xi) through (xii) - not applicable. (xiii) - The Partnership has no employees.

The Partnership does not engage in sales of goods or services. Its only assets are its equity in its commodity futures trading account, consisting of cash and cash equivalents, net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on open futures contracts and interest receivable. Because of the low margin deposits normally required in commodity futures trading, relatively small price movements may result in substantial losses to the Partnership. Such substantial losses could lead to a material loss in liquidity. To minimize this risk, the Partnership follows certain trading policies, including: (i) Partnership funds are invested only in futures contracts which are traded in sufficient volume to permit, in the opinion of the Advisor, ease of taking and liquidating positions. (ii) The Partnership diversifies its positions among various commodities. The Advisor does not initiate additional positions in any commodity for the Partnership if such additional positions would result in aggregate positions for all commodities requiring a margin of more than 66-2/3% of net assets of the Partnership managed by the Advisor. (iii) The Partnership may occasionally accept delivery of a commodity. Unless such delivery is disposed of promptly by retendering the warehouse receipt representing the delivery to the appropriate clearing house, the physical commodity position is fully hedged. The Partnership's ability to accept delivery of a commodity has been adopted as a trading policy in order to protect the Partnership in the extraordinary event that the Advisor fails to heed the time of expiration of a commodity contract. Since the commencement of its operations, the Partnership has never accepted delivery of a commodity and, under ordinary circumstances, has no intention of accepting delivery in the future. (iv) The Partnership does not employ the trading technique commonly known as "pyramiding", in which the speculator uses unrealized profits on existing positions as margin for the purchases or sale of additional positions in the same or related commodities. (v) The Partnership does not utilize borrowings except short-term borrowings if the Partnership takes delivery of any cash commodities. (vi) The Advisor may, from time to time, employ trading strategies such as spreads or straddles on behalf of the Partnership. The term "spread" or "straddle" describes a commodity futures trading strategy involving the simultaneous buying and selling of futures contracts on the same commodity but involving different delivery dates or markets and in which the trader expects to earn a profit from a widening or narrowing of the difference between the prices of the contracts. 16 (vii) The Partnership will not permit the churning of its commodity trading account. The Partnership is party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk, including derivative financial instruments and derivative commodity instruments, in the normal course of its business. These financial instruments include forwards, futures and options, whose value is based upon an underlying asset, index, or reference rate, and generally represent future commitments to exchange currencies or cash flows, or to purchase or sell other financial instruments at specified terms at specified futures dates. Each of these instruments is subject to various risks similar to those relating to the underlying financial instruments including market and credit risk. The General Partner monitors and controls the Partnership risk exposure on a daily basis through financial, credit and risk management monitoring systems and, accordingly, believes that it has effective procedures for evaluating and limiting the credit and market risks to which the Partnership is subject. These monitoring systems allow the General Partner to statistically analyze actual trading results with risk adjusted performance indicators and correlation statistics. In addition, on-line monitoring systems provide account analysis of futures, forwards and options positions by sector, margin requirements, gain and loss transactions and collateral positions. (See also "Item 13. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" for further information on financial instrument risk included in the notes to financial statements.) Other than the risks inherent in commodity futures trading, the Partnership knows of no trends, demands, commitments, events or uncertainties which will result in or which are reasonably likely to result in the Partnership's liquidity increasing or decreasing in any material way. The Limited Partnership Agreement provided that the General Partner may, in its discretion, cause the Partnership to cease trading operations and liquidate all open positions under certain circumstances including a decrease in Net Asset Value per Unit to less than $350 as of the close of business on any business day. As of March 31, 1996, the Partnership had privately offered 42,137.3733 Units of limited partnership interest resulting in aggregate proceeds to the Partnership of $45,792,869, which includes proceeds of $9,421,000 from the initial offering of 9,421 Units of limited partnership interest. All of the proceeds of the Partnership's offering of its Units are deposited in its commodity trading account at SB where they are available to margin the Partnership's commodity futures trading. The Partnership is currently privately offering additional Units. There is no limit on the number of Units that may be sold by the Partnership; however the Partnership currently contemplates offering a maximum of 60,000 Units. 17 (2) Capital Resources. (i) The Partnership has made no material commitments for capital expenditures. (ii) The Partnership's capital consists of the capital contributions of the partners as increased or decreased by gains or losses on commodity futures trading and by expenses, interest income, redemptions of Units and distributions of profits, if any. Gains or losses on commodity futures trading cannot be predicted. Market moves in commodities are dependent upon fundamental and technical factors which the Partnership may or may not be able to identify, such as changing supply and demand relationships, weather, government agricultural, commercial and trade programs and policies, national and international political and economic events and changes in interest rates. Partnership expenses consist of, among other things, commissions, management fees and incentive fees. The level of these expenses is dependent upon the level of trading and the ability of the Advisor to identify and take advantage of price movements in the commodity markets, in addition to the level of Net Assets maintained. The amount of interest income payable by SB is dependent upon interest rates over which the Partnership has no control. No forecast can be made as to the level of redemptions in any given period. In the first quarter of 1996, 615.0012 Units were redeemed for a total of $753,759. In 1995, 6,145.4511 Units were redeemed for a total of $7,436,822. In 1994, 286 Units were redeemed for a total of $264,427. (c) Results of Operations. For the quarter ended March 31, 1996, the net asset value per Unit decreased 0.1% from $1,218.06 to $1,216.33. For the year ended December 31, 1995, the net asset value per Unit increased 31.7% from $924.57 to $1,218.06. For the period from September 1, 1994 (commencement of operations) to December 31, 1994, the net asset value per Unit decreased 7.5% from $1,000.00 to $924.57. "Net Assets" is defined as the total assets of the Partnership including all cash, accrued interest, and the market value of all open commodity positions maintained by the Partnership, less brokerage charges accrued and less all other liabilities of the Partnership. Net Assets equal Net Asset Value. Net Asset Value of a Unit means Net Asset Value divided by the number of Units outstanding. The Partnership experienced net trading gains of $677,268 and $9,862,524 before commissions and expenses for the quarter ended March 31, 1996 and the year ended December 31, 1995, respectively. Gains for the first quarter of 1996 were recognized in the trading of commodity futures in interest rates and currencies which were partially offset by losses recognized in stock indices and precious metals. Trading gains for the year ended December 31, 1995 were primarily attributable to gains recognized in currency, interest rate and stock index futures contracts which were partially offset by losses incurred in the trading of commodity futures in precious metals. The Partnership experienced net trading losses of $828,726 before commissions and expenses for the period ended December 31, 1994. These trading losses were primarily attributable to losses incurred in currency and stock index futures contracts which were partially offset by gains recognized in the trading of commodity futures in interest rates and precious metals. 18 Commodity futures markets are highly volatile. Broad price fluctuations and rapid inflation increase the risks involved in commodity trading, but also increase the possibility of profit. The profitability of the Partnership depends on the existence of major price trends and the ability of the Advisor to identify correctly those price trends. These price trends are influenced by, among other things, changing supply and demand relationships, weather, governmental, agricultural, commercial and trade programs and policies, national and international political and economic events and changes in interest rates. To the extent that market trends exist and the Advisor is able to identify them, the Partnership expects to increase capital through operations. The business reason for the success or failure of the Partnership's operations in any given period (including the quarter ended March 31, 1996, the year ended December 31, 1995 and the period from September 1, 1994 (commencement of operations) to December 31, 1994) is the relative success or failure of the Advisor's technical trading strategy in trading the various worldwide commodity markets during the relevant periods. In addition, during the year ended December 31, 1995 and the period from September 1, 1994 (commencement of operations) to December 31, 1994, the Partnership sold 18,408.1696 and 10,194.9915 Units of limited partnership interest, respectively, resulting in aggregate proceeds to the Partnership of $21,242,100 in 1995 and $10,028,000 in 1994. There were additional sales of 4,113.2122 Units of limited partnership interest resulting in aggregate proceeds of $5,101,769 for the three months ending March 31, 1996. The increase in the Partnership's capital over that period entailed a commensurate increase in the Partnership's contracts traded on various markets worldwide with an increased exposure to the possibility of gain or loss on any given contract. There is no assurance that the Partnership's performance in the past will be the same or different in the future. Item 3. Properties. The Partnership does not own or lease any properties. The General Partner operates out of facilities provided by its affiliate, SB. 19 Item 4. Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management. (a) Security ownership of certain beneficial owners. The Partnership knows of no person who beneficially owns more than 5% of the Units outstanding. (b) Security ownership of management.

See Item 1(a), "General Development of Business Conflicts of Interests for a description of the entities that control the General Partner. As of June 30, 1996, none of the directors and executive officers of the General Partner or the Advisor beneficially owned any Units, except as set forth in the following table: Name of Amount and Nature of Percent Title of Class Beneficial Owner Beneficial Ownership of Class -------------- ---------------- -------------------- -------- Units of General Smith Barney Futures 397.4667 Units; 1.02% Partnership Interest Management, Inc. Direct Ownership 36.7358 Units; Units of Limited David J. Vogel Direct Ownership 0.09% Partnership Interest (c) Changes in control. None. Item 5.

The Partnership is currently offering Units. In accordance with Part 4 of the CFTC regulations, before making any investment in the Partnership, each investor is provided with a Disclosure Document as supplemented that contains information concerning the Partnership as prescribed in CFTC regulations. Item 11. Description of Registrant's Securities to be Registered. The Partnership is registering Units of Limited Partnership Interest, which are privately offered. Profits and losses of the Partnership are allocated among the partners on a monthly basis in proportion to their capital accounts (the initial balance of which is the amount paid for their Units). Distributions of profits will be made at the sole discretion of the General Partner. The Units may not be transferred without the consent of the General Partner except in the case of the death of an individual limited partner or the termination of an entity that is a limited partner. No transfer or assignment will be permitted unless the General Partner is satisfied that such transfer or assignment will not violate federal or state securities laws and will not jeopardize the Partnership's status as a partnership for federal income tax purposes. No substitution may be made unless the transferor delivers an instrument of substitution, the transferee adopts the terms of, and executes, the Limited Partnership Agreement, and the General Partner consents to such substitution (which consent may be withheld at its sole and absolute discretion). A transferee who becomes a substituted limited partner will be subject to all of the rights and liabilities of a limited partner of the Partnership. A transferee who does not become a substituted limited partner will be entitled to receive the share of the profits or the return of capital to which his transferor would otherwise be entitled, but will not be entitled to vote, to an accounting of Partnership transactions, to receive tax information, or to inspect the books and records of the Partnership. Under the New York Revised Limited Partnership Act, an assigning limited partner remains liable to the Partnership for any amounts for which he may be liable under such law regardless of whether any assignee to whom he has assigned Units becomes a substituted limited partner. 30 A limited partner may require the Partnership to redeem some or all of his Units (minimum 10 Units) at net asset value per Unit as of the last day of a calendar month (the "Redemption Date") upon 15 days prior written notice to the General Partner. No redemption will be permitted if, after giving effect to the redemption, the limited partner owns fewer than 10 Units. The right to redeem is contingent upon the Partnership's having property sufficient to discharge its liabilities on the Redemption Date. Payment for a redeemed interest will be made within 10 business days following the Redemption Date. There is no fee charged to limited partners in connection with redemptions. The General Partner reserves the right in its sole discretion to permit redemptions more frequently than monthly and to waive the 15-day notice period. The General Partner may also, at its sole discretion and upon 10 days' notice to a limited partner, require that any limited partner redeem his Units if such redemption is in the best interests of the Partnership. Summary of the Limited Partnership Agreement The following is an explanation of all of the material terms and provisions of the Limited Partnership Agreement, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 3(ii) hereto and is incorporated herein by this reference. Each prospective investor should read the Limited Partnership Agreement thoroughly before investing. The following description is a summary only, is not intended to be complete, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Limited Partnership Agreement itself. Liability of Limited Partners The Partnership was formed under the laws of the State of New York on June 3, 1994. The General Partner has been advised by its counsel that except as required by New York law and as set forth in Paragraph 7(f) of the Limited Partnership Agreement, Units of limited partnership interest purchased and paid for pursuant to this offering will be fully paid and non-assessable, and a limited partner will not be liable for amounts in excess of his contributions to the Partnership and his share of Partnership assets and undistributed profits. The General Partner will be liable for all obligations of the Partnership to the extent that assets of the Partnership are insufficient to discharge such obligations. Management of Partnership Affairs The limited partners will not participate in the management or control of the Partnership. Under the Limited Partnership Agreement, responsibility for managing the Partnership is vested solely in the General 31 Partner. The General Partner may select one or more trading advisors to direct all trading for the Partnership. Other responsibilities of the General Partner include, but are not limited to, the following: reviewing and monitoring the trading of the trading advisors; administering redemptions of limited partners' Units; preparing monthly and annual reports to the limited partners; preparing and filing necessary reports with regulatory authorities; calculating the Net Asset Value; executing various documents on behalf of the Partnership and the limited partners pursuant to powers of attorney; and supervising the liquidation of the Partnership if an event causing dissolution of the Partnership occurs. Additional Partners The General Partner has the sole discretion to determine whether to offer for sale additional Units of limited partnership interest and to admit additional limited partners. There is no limitation on the number of Units which may be outstanding at any time. All Units offered by the Partnership will be sold at the Partnership's then current Net Asset Value per Unit. The General Partner may make arrangements for the sale of additional Units in the future. Dissolution of the Partnership The affairs of the Partnership will be wound up and the Partnership liquidated as soon as practicable upon the first to occur of the following: (i) December 31, 2014; (ii) the vote to dissolve the Partnership by limited partners owning more than 50% of the Units; (iii) assignment by the General Partner of all of its interest in the Partnership, withdrawal, removal, bankruptcy or dissolution of the General Partner, unless the Partnership is continued as described in the Limited Partnership Agreement; (iv) a decline in Net Asset Value to less than $350 per Unit as of the end of any trading day; or (v) the occurrence of any event which shall make it unlawful for the existence of the Partnership to be continued. Removal or Admission of General Partner The General Partner may be removed and successor general partners may be admitted upon the vote of a majority of the outstanding Units. Amendments; Meetings The Limited Partnership Agreement may be amended if approved in writing by the General Partner and limited partners owning more than 50% of the outstanding Units. Any limited partner, upon written request addressed to the General Partner, may obtain from the General Partner a list of the names and addresses of record of all limited partners and the number of Units held by each 32 for a purpose reasonably related to such Limited Partner's interest as a limited partner in the Partnership. Upon receipt of a written request, signed by limited partners owning at least 10% of the outstanding Units, that a meeting of the Partnership be called to consider any matter upon which limited partners may vote pursuant to the Limited Partnership Agreement, the General Partner, by written notice to each limited partner of record mailed within fifteen days after such receipt, must call a meeting of the Partnership. Such meeting must be held at least thirty but not more than sixty days after the mailing of such notice and the notice must specify the date, a reasonable time and place, and the purpose of such meeting. At any such meeting, upon the approval by an affirmative vote of limited partners owning more than 50% of the Units, the following actions may be taken: (i) the Limited Partnership Agreement may, with certain exceptions, be amended; (ii) the Partnership may be dissolved; (iii) the General Partner may be removed and a new general partner may be admitted; (iv) a new general partner or general partners may be admitted if the General Partner elects to withdraw from the Partnership; (v) any contracts with the General Partner or any of its affiliates or any trading advisor may be terminated without penalty on 60 days' notice; and (vi) the sale of all assets of the Partnership may be approved. However, no such action may be taken unless the General Partner has been furnished with an opinion of counsel that the action to be taken will not adversely affect the status of the limited partners as limited partners under the New York Revised Limited Partnership Act and that the action is permitted under such law. Reports to Limited Partners The books and records of the Partnership will be maintained at its principal office and the limited partners have the right at all times during reasonable business hours to have access to and copy the Partnership's books and records for a purpose reasonably related to such limited partner's interest as a limited partner in the Partnership. Within 30 days of the end of each month, the General Partner will provide the limited partners with a financial report containing information relating to the Net Assets and Net Asset Value of a Unit as of the end of such month, as well as other information relating to the operations of the Partnership which is required to be reported to the limited partners by CFTC regulations. In addition, if any of the following events occur, notice thereof will be mailed to each limited partner within 7 business days of such occurrence: a decrease in the Net Asset Value of a Unit to $350 or less as of the end of any trading day; any change in trading advisors; any change in commodity brokers; any change in the General Partner; any material change in the Partnership's trading policies or any material change in an advisor's trading strategies. In addition, a certified annual report of financial condition will 33 be distributed to the limited partners not more than 90 days after the close of the Partnership's fiscal year. Not more than 75 days after the close of the fiscal year and if required by the then applicable tax law, tax information necessary for the preparation of the limited partners' annual federal income tax returns will be distributed to the limited partners. Income Tax Aspects The trading activities of the Partnership, in general, generate capital gain and loss and ordinary income. The Partnership pays no federal income tax; rather, limited partners are allocated their proportionate share of the taxable income or losses realized by the Partnership during the period of the Partnership's taxable year that Units were owned by them. Unrealized gains on "Section 1256 contracts" (as defined in the Code) held by the Partnership at the end of its taxable year must be included in income under the "mark-to-market" rule and will be allocated to partners in proportion to their respective capital accounts. The mark-to-market rule does not apply to the Partnership's positions in futures contracts on most foreign exchanges and in foreign currency forward contracts not in the interbank market, unless the Partnership elects such treatments under Code Section 988. Item 12. Indemnification of Directors and Officers. Section 16 of the Limited Partnership Agreement (attached as Exhibit 3(ii) hereto) provides for indemnification of the General Partner, its officers, directors, more than 10% stockholders, and persons who directly or indirectly control, are controlled by or under common control with the General Partner. The Registrant is not permitted to indemnify the General Partner or its affiliates for liabilities resulting from a violation of the Securities Act of 1933 or any State securities law in connection with the offer or sale of the Units of Limited Partnership Interest. Section 6 of the Management Agreement (attached as Exhibit 10(a) hereto) provides for indemnification by the General Partner of the Advisor for any loss, liability, damage, cost, expense (including, without limitation, attorneys' and accountants' fees), judgments and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by it in connection with such action, suit, or proceeding if the Advisor acted in good faith and in a manner reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Partnership and provided that its conduct did not constitute negligence, intentional misconduct, or a breach of its fiduciary obligations to the Partnership as a commodity trading advisor, unless and only to the extent that the court or administrative forum in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all circumstances of the case, the Advisor is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which such court or administrative forum shall deem proper; and further provided that no indemnification shall be available from the Partnership if such indemnification is prohibited by Section 16 of the Limited Partnership Agreement.

Smith Barney Mid-West Futures Fund L.P. II Notes to Financial Statements March 31, 1996 (Unaudited) General Smith Barney Mid-West Futures Fund L.P. II,(the "Partnership") is a limited partnership which was organized on June 3, 1994 under the partnership laws of the State of New York to engage in the speculative trading of commodity interests, including forward contracts on foreign currencies, commodity options and commodity futures contracts including futures contracts on U.S. Treasuries and certain other financial instruments, foreign currencies and stock indices. The commodity interests that are traded by the Partnership are volatile and involve a high degree of market risk. The Partnership commenced trading operations on September 1, 1994. Smith Barney Futures Management Inc. acts as the general partner (the "General Partner") of the Partnership. Smith Barney Inc. ("SB"), an affiliate of the General Partner, acts as commodity broker for the Partnership. All trading decisions for the Partnership are being made by John W. Henry & Co., Inc. (the "Advisor"). The accompanying financial statements are unaudited but, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the Partnership's financial condition at March 31, 1996 and the results of its operations for the three months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995. These financial statements present the results of interim periods and do not include all disclosures normally provided in annual financial statements. It is suggested that these financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes included in the Partnership's annual report for the year ended December 31, 1995. Due to the nature of commodity trading, the results of operations for the interim periods presented should not be considered indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire year. Accounting Policies (a) All commodity interests (including derivative financial instruments and derivative commodity instruments ) are used for trading purposes. The commodity interests are recorded on trade date and open contracts are recorded in the statement of financial condition at market value for those commodity interests for which market quotations are readily available or at fair value on the last business day of the period. Investments in commodity interests denominated in foreign currency are translated into US dollars at the exchange rates prevailing on the last business day of the period. Realized gain (loss) and changes in unrealized values on commodity interests are recognized in the period in which the contract is closed or the changes occur and are included in net gains (losses) on trading of commodity interests. The Customer Agreement between the Partnership and SB gives the Partnership the legal right to net unrealized gains and losses. (b) Income taxes have not been provided as each partner is individually liable for the taxes, if any, on his share of the Partnership's income and expenses. (c) The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Net Asset Value Per Unit Changes in net asset value per Unit for the three months ended March 31, 1996 and 1995 were as follows: THREE MONTHS ENDED MARCH 31, ----------------------------- 1996 1995 ------------ ------------ Net realized and unrealized gains ................................. $ 3.09 $ 269.77 Interest Income ........................ 11.64 10.08 Expenses ............................... (16.46) (42.11) Increase (decrease) for period ......... (1.73) 237.74 Net Asset Value per Unit, beginning of period ................... 1,218.06 924.57 ------------ ------------- Net Asset Value per Unit, end of period ......................... $ 1,216.33 $ 1,162.31 ============ ============ Trading Activities and Financial Instrument Risk The Partnership was formed for the purpose of trading contracts in a variety of commodity interests, including derivative financial instruments and derivative commodity instruments. The results of the Partnership's trading activity are shown in the statement of income and expenses. All of the commodity interests owned by the Partnership are held for trading purposes. The fair value of these commodity interests, including options thereon, at March 31, 1996 was $2,431,331 and the average fair value during the quarter then ended, based on monthly calculation, was $2,468,273. The Partnership is party to financial instruments with offbalance sheet risk, including derivative financial instruments and derivative commodity instruments, in the normal course of its business. These financial instruments include forwards, futures and options, whose value is based upon an underlying asset, index, or reference rate, and generally represent future commitments to exchange currencies or cash flows, to purchase or sell other financial instruments at specific terms at specified future dates, or, in the case of derivative commodity instruments, to have a reasonable possibility to be settled in cash or with another financial instrument. These instruments may be traded on an exchange or over-the-counter ("OTC"). Exchange traded instruments are standardized and include futures and certain option contracts. OTC contracts are negotiated between contracting parties and include forwards and certain options. Each of these instruments is subject to various risks similar to those related to the underlying financial instruments including market and credit risk. In general, the risks associated with OTC contracts are greater than those associated with exchange traded instruments because of the greater risk of default by the counterparty to an OTC contracts. Market risk is the potential for changes in the value of the financial instruments traded by the Partnership due to market changes, including interest and foreign exchange rate movements and fluctuations in commodity or security prices. Market risk is directly impacted by the volatility and liquidity in the markets in which the related underlying assets are traded. Credit risk is the possibility that a loss may occur due to the failure of a counterparty to perform according to the terms of a contract. Credit risk with respect to exchange traded instruments is reduced to the extent that an exchange or clearing organization acts as a counterparty to the transactions. The Partnership's risk of loss in the event of counterparty default is typically limited to the amounts recognized in the statement of financial condition and not represented by the contract or notional amounts of the instruments. The Partnership has concentration risk because the sole counterparty or broker with respect to the Partnership's assets is SB. The General Partner monitors and controls the Partnership's risk exposure on a daily basis through financial, credit and risk management monitoring systems and, accordingly believes that it has effective procedures for evaluating and limiting the credit and market risks to which the Partnership is subject. These monitoring systems allow the General Partner to statistically analyze actual trading results with risk adjusted performance indicators and correlation statistics. In addition, on-line monitoring systems provide account analysis of futures, forwards and options positions by sector, margin requirements, gain and loss transactions and collateral positions. The notional or contractual amounts of these instruments, while not recorded in the financial statements, reflect the extent of the Partnership's involvement in these instruments. At March 31, 1996, the notional or contractual amounts of the Partnership's commitment to purchase and sell these instruments was approximately $46,314,000 and $470,441,000 respectively, as detailed below. All of these instruments mature within one year of March 31, 1996. However, due to the nature of the Partnership's business, these instruments may not be held to maturity. At March 31, 1996, the Partnership had net unrealized trading gains of approximately $2,431,000, as detailed below. Notional or Contractual Amount of Commitments Net Unrealized To Purchase To Sell Gain ----------- ------- -------------- Currencies* $ 14,804,000 $ 69,085,000 $ 410,000 Interest Rates US 0 97,585,000 1,365,000 Interest Rate 23,308,000 293,785,000 528,000 Non US Metals 0 9,986,000 26,000 Stock Indices 8,202,000 0 $ 102,000 ------------ ------------- ------------ Total $ 46,314,000 $ 47,441,000 $ 2,431,000 ============ ============ ============ - ------------------------ * The notional or contractual commitment amounts and the net unrealized gain amount listed for the currency sector represent over the counter contracts. All other sectors listed represent exchange traded contracts. Report of Independent Accountants To the Partners of Smith Barney Mid-West Futures Fund L.P. II: We have audited the accompanying statements of financial condition of SMITH BARNEY MID-WEST FUTURES FUND L.P. II (a New York Limited Partnership) as of December 31, 1995 and 1994 and the related statements of income and expenses for the year ended December 31, 1995 and for the period from September 1, 1994 (commencement of trading operations) to December 31, 1994, and of partners' capital for the year ended December 31, 1995 and for the period from June 3, 1994 (date Partnership was organized) to December 31, 1994. These financial statements are the responsibility of the management of the General Partner. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.

F-5 Smith Barney Mid-West Futures Fund L.P. II Notes to Financial Statements 1. Partnership Organization: Smith Barney Mid-West Futures Fund L.P. II (the "Partnership") is a limited partnership which was organized on June 3, 1994 under the partnership laws of the State of New York to engage in the speculative trading of commodity interests, including forward contracts on foreign currencies, commodity options and commodity futures contracts including futures contracts on U.S. Treasuries and certain other financial instruments, foreign currencies and stock indices. The commodity interests that are traded by the Partnership are volatile and involve a high degree of market risk. Between July 7, 1994 and August 31, 1994, 9,421 Units of Limited Partnership Interest ("Units") were sold at $1,000 per Unit. The proceeds of the offering were held in an escrow account until September 1, 1994, at which time they were turned over to the Partnership for trading. Smith Barney Futures Management Inc. is the general partner (the "General Partner") of the Partnership. Smith Barney Inc. ("SB"), an affiliate of the General Partner, acts as commodity broker for the Partnership (see Note 3c). 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 his 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; when the net asset value of a Unit decreases to less than $350 as of the close of business on any business day; or under certain other circumstances as defined in the Limited Partnership Agreement. 2. Accounting Policies: a. All commodity interests (including derivative financial instruments and derivative commodity instruments) are used for trading purposes The commodity interests are recorded on trade date and open contracts are recorded in the statement of financial condition at market value for those commodity interests for which market quotations are readily available or at fair value on the last business day of the year Investments in commodity interests denominated in foreign currency are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates prevailing on the last business day of the year. Realized gain (loss) and changes in unrealized values on commodity interests are recognized in the period in which the contract is closed or the changes occur and are included in net gains (losses) on trading of commodity interests b. Income taxes have not been provided as each partner is individually liable for the taxes, if any, on his share of the Partnership's income and expenses c. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from these estimates 3 Agreements: a. Limited Partnership Agreement: The General Partner administers the business and affairs of the Partnership including selecting one or more advisors to make trading decisions for the Partnership. The Partnership will pay the General Partner a monthly administrative fee in return for its services to the Partnership equal to 1/12 of 1% (1% per year) of month-end Net Assets of the Partnership, as defined. This fee may be increased or decreased at the discretion of the General Partner. F-6 Smith Barney Mid-West Futures Fund L.P. II Notes to Financial Statements b. Management Agreement: The Management Agreement that the General Partner, on behalf of the Partnership, entered into with the advisor (John W. Henry & Co., Inc.) (the "Advisor"), provides that the Advisor has sole discretion in determining the investment of the assets of the Partnership allocated to the Advisor by the General Partner. As compensation for services, the Partnership is obligated to pay the Advisor a monthly management fee of 1/3 of 1% (4% per year) of month-end Net Assets managed by the Advisor (as defined) and an incentive fee, payable quarterly, equal to 15% of the New Trading Profits of the Partnership (as defined). The Management Agreement is effective until June 30, 1996 at which time it may be renewed at the sole discretion of the General Partner. c. Customer Agreement The Partnership has entered into a Customer Agreement with SB whereby SB provides services which include, among other things, the execution of transactions for the Partnership's account in accordance with orders placed by the Advisor. The Partnership is obligated to pay a monthly brokerage fee to SB equal to 1/2 of 1% of month end Net Assets (6% per year) in lieu of per transaction fees regardless of how many or how few trades are executed during the month. A portion of this fee is paid to employees of SB who have sold Units of the Partnership. This fee does not include exchange, clearing, floor brokerage and NFA fees which will be borne by the Partnership. All of the Partnership's assets are deposited in the Partnership's account at SB. The Partnership's cash is deposited by SB in segregated bank accounts as required by Commodity Futures Trading Commission regulations. At December 31, 1995, the amount of cash held for margin requirements was $4,934,929. SB will pay the Partnership interest on 80% of the average daily equity maintained in cash in its account during each month at the rate of the average non-competitive yield of 30 day U.S. Treasury Bills as determined at the weekly auctions thereof during the month. The Customer Agreement between the Partnership and SB gives the Partnership the legal right to net unrealized gains and losses. The Customer Agreement may be terminated by either party. 4. Trading Activities: The Partnership was formed for the purpose of trading contracts in a variety of commodity interests, including derivative financial instruments and derivative commodity instruments. The results of the Partnership's trading activity are shown in the statement of income and expenses. All of the commodity interests owned by the Partnership are held for trading purposes. The fair value of these commodity interests, including options thereon, at December 31, 1995 was $1,455,058 and the average fair value during the year then ended, based on monthly calculation, was $1,903,653. 5. Distributions and Redemptions: Distributions of profits, if any, will be made at the sole discretion of the General Partner; however, a limited partner may redeem all or some of his Units (minimum ten Units) at the Net Asset Value thereof as of the last day of any month beginning with the first full month ending at least three months after trading commences on fifteen days written notice to the General Partner, provided that no redemption may result in the limited partner holding fewer than ten Units after such redemption is effected. 6. Organization and Offering Costs: Offering and organization expenses of $128,173 relating to the issuance and marketing of units offered were initially paid by SB. The Partnership has reimbursed SB for all such expenses from interest paid to the Partnership and has recorded such reimbursement amounts as an expense. F-7 Smith Barney Mid-West Futures Fund L.P. II Notes to Financial Statements 7. Net Asset Value Per Unit: Changes in the net asset value per Unit for the year ended December 31, 1995 and for the period ended December 31, 1994 were as follows: 1995 1994 --------- -------- Net realized and unrealized gains/losses $342.80 $(58.56) Interest income 49.02 12.17 Expenses (98.33) (29.04) --------- -------- Increase/decrease for period 293.49 (75.43) Net asset value per Unit, beginning of period 924.57 1,000.00 --------- -------- Net asset value per Unit, end of period $1,218.06 $924.57 ========= ======== 8. Financial Instrument Risk: The Partnership is party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk, including derivative financial instruments and derivative commodity instruments, in the normal course of its business. These financial instruments include forwards, futures and options, whose value is based upon an underlying asset, index, or reference rate, and generally represent future commitments to exchange currencies or cash flows, to purchase or sell other financial instruments at specific terms at specified future dates, or, in the case of derivative commodity instruments, to have a reasonable possibility to be settled in cash or with another financial instrument. These instruments may be traded on an exchange or over-the-counter ("OTC"). Exchange traded instruments are standardized and include futures and certain option contracts. OTC contracts are negotiated between contracting parties and include forwards and certain options. Each of these instruments is subject to various risks similar to those related to the underlying financial instruments including market and credit risk. In general, the risks associated with OTC contracts are greater than those associated with exchange traded instruments because of the greater risk of default by the counterparty to an OTC contract. Market risk is the potential for changes in the value of the financial instruments traded by the Partnership due to market changes, including interest and foreign exchange rate movements and fluctuations in commodity or security prices. Market risk is directly impacted by the volatility and liquidity in the markets in which the related underlying assets are traded. Credit risk is the possibility that a loss may occur due to the failure of a counterparty to perform according to the terms of a contract. Credit risk with respect to exchange traded instruments is reduced to the extent that an exchange or clearing organization acts as a counterparty to the transactions. The Partnership's risk of loss in the event of counterparty default is typically limited to the amounts recognized in the statement of financial condition and not represented by the contract or notional amounts of the instruments. The Partnership has concentration risk because the sole counterparty or broker with respect to the Partnership's assets is SB. The notional or contractual amounts of these instruments, while not recorded in the financial statements, reflect the extent of the Partnership's involvement in these instruments. At December 31, 1995, the notional or contractual amounts of the Partnership's commitment to purchase and sell these instruments was approximately $314,216,000 and $80,966,000, respectively, as detailed below. All of these instruments mature within one year of December 31, 1995. However, due to the nature of the Partnership's business, these instruments may not be held to maturity. At December 31, 1995, the Partnership had net unrealized trading gains of approximately $1,455,000, as detailed below. Notional or Contractual Amount of Commitments Net Unrealized To Purchase To Sell Gain (Loss) ----------- ------- -------------- Currencies* $ 30,858,000 $ 58,675,000 $ (334,000) Interest Rates US 71,187,000 766,000 Interest Rate 205,430,000 16,213,000 715,000 Non US Metals 6,078,000 38,000 Stock Indices 6,741,000 270,000 ------------ ----------- ------------ Total $314,216,000 $ 80,966,000 $ 1,455,000 ============ ============ ============ - -------------------------- * The notional or contractual commitment amounts and the net unrealized loss amount listed for the currency sector represent over the counter contracts.

Purchasers of Units in the Partnership are not acquiring any interest in the General Partner. The accompanying notes are an integral part of this statement of financial condition. SMITH BARNEY FUTURES MANAGEMENT INC. (A WHOLLY-OWNED SUBSIDIARY OF SMITH BARNEY HOLDINGS INC.) NOTES TO STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL CONDITION 1. ORGANIZATION Smith Barney Futures Management Inc. (the "Company") is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Smith Barney Holdings Inc. ("SBHI"). The Company's ultimate parent company is Travelers Group Inc. ("Travelers"). The Company is registered as a commodity pool operator with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission. The Company was organized and is authorized to act as a general partner for the management of investment funds. At December 31, 1995, the Company is the general partner for 18 limited partnerships and trading manager for 1 offshore corporation with total assets of $544,056,106, total liabilities of $27,200,681 and total partners' capital of $516,855,425. The limited partnerships are organized to engage in the speculative trading of commodity futures contracts and other commodity interests. The Company's responsibilities as the general partner are described in the various limited partnership agreements. The Company has a general partner's liability, which is unlimited (except to the extent it may be limited by contract) with respect to the partnerships. 2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the statement of financial condition. Actual results could differ from these estimates. Cash equivalents consist of highly liquid investments issued by an affiliate, with a maturity of three months or less when purchased. Investments in limited partnerships, at equity, are valued at the Company's proportionate share of the net asset values as reported by the limited partnerships. The limited partnerships value positions at the closing market quotations on the last business day of the year. Under the terms of each of the limited partnership agreements for which it is a general partner, the Company is solely responsible for managing the partnership. Other responsibilities are disclosed in each limited partnership agreement. The Company is required to make a capital contribution to each such partnership. The Limited Partnership Agreements generally require the General Partner to maintain a cash investment in the partnerships equal to the greater of (i) an amount which will entitle the General Partner to an interest of 1% in each material item of partnership income, gain, loss, deduction or credit and (ii) the greater of (a) 1% of the aggregate capital contributions of all partners or (b) a minimum of $25,000. While it is the general partner thereof, it may not reduce its percentage interest in such partnerships to less than such required level, as defined in each partnership agreement. The Company has also agreed that so long as it remains the general partner, it will at all times maintain its net worth, as defined in the limited partnership agreements (excluding its investment in each such partnership), at an amount not less than 10% of the total contributions to the partnerships by all partners. SBHI will contribute such amounts of additional capital to the Company, all or part of which may be contributed by a note (see Note 3), so that the Company maintains its net worth requirement. The Company further agrees that it will not be a general partner of any additional limited partnerships unless at all times when it is general partner of any such additional partnership its net worth shall be at least equal to the net worth required by the preceding sentence plus, for each such additional partnership, an amount equal (excluding its investment in each such partnership) to 10% of the total contributions to such partnership. Receivable from limited partnerships includes deferred offering costs which represent payments made by the Company on behalf of certain funds during their original offering, such as legal fees, printing costs, etc. These costs are deferred until the funds commence operations and then are reimbursed over a period varying from eighteen to twenty-four months or as interest income is earned by the fund in accordance with the funds' prospectus. The unreimbursed organizational and offering costs at December 31, 1995 are approximately SMITH BARNEY FUTURES MANAGEMENT INC. (A WHOLLY-OWNED SUBSIDIARY OF SMITH BARNEY HOLDINGS INC.) NOTES TO STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL CONDITION -- (CONTINUED) $1,134,756. In addition, as general partner, the Company earns monthly management fees and commissions from certain partnerships as defined by the partnership agreements. All financial instruments in the statement of financial condition approximate fair value as they are short term or carried at fair value as of December 31, 1995. 3. NOTE RECEIVABLE The note receivable consists of a $58,000,000 demand note dated June 22, 1994 which is non-interest bearing. The demand note was issued to the Company by SBHI. 4. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS Substantially all transactions of the Company, including the allocation of certain income and expenses, are with SBHI, limited partnerships of which it is the general partner, and other affiliates. Receivable from affiliate represents amounts due from Smith Barney Inc. for interest income, advisory fees, and commissions. Payable to affiliates includes amounts due to SBHI and other affiliates. 5. INCOME TAXES Under income tax allocation agreements with SBHI and Travelers, the Company's Federal, state, and local income taxes are provided on a separate return basis and are subject to utilization of tax attributes in Travelers consolidated income tax provision. Under the tax sharing agreement with SBHI, the Company remits taxes to SBHI. 6. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS The Company participates in a noncontributory defined benefit pension plan with Travelers which covers substantially all U.S. employees. The Company, through Travelers, has a defined contribution employee savings plan covering substantially all U.S. employees. In addition, the Company has various incentive plans under which stock of Travelers is purchased for subsequent distribution to employees, subject to vesting requirements. 7. STOCKHOLDERS EQUITY During the year the Company declared and distributed an earnings dividend of $8,190,058 and a liquidating dividend in the amount of $1,809,942 on its outstanding common stock. Other than net income, there were no other changes to equity. 8. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS The Company declared a dividend in the amount of $1,650,000 payable to holder of record at the close of business on March 29, 1996 payable on April 15, 1996. 34 Item 14.
