Item 8.01. Other Events.

 

Current Status of Fund Operations.

 

PlusFunds Group, Inc. (“PlusFunds”), the investment manager of the SPhinX Managed Futures Fund SPC (the “SPhinX Fund”) in which all or substantially all of the assets of S&P Managed Futures Index Fund, LP (the “Fund”) are invested, has imposed restrictions on the payment of any and all redemption requests, as set forth in the notice to investors distributed by PlusFunds on January 6, 2006.  The notice is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is hereby incorporated by reference.  The Fund has requested that PlusFunds convert all of the SPhinX Fund’s positions to cash as soon as possible so as not to subject investors to additional market risk.  Until such time as PlusFunds acts on such request, or is compelled to act on such request, investor money will continue to be subject to certain market risk.  While investors who requested redemptions as of December 15, 2005 currently have their redemption proceeds held in cash but unavailable for distribution by PlusFunds, investors who held shares in the Fund as of December 31, 2005 had their market exposure reduced by 20% as of January 1, 2006.  Pursuant to an agreement between the Fund and PlusFunds, it is expected that another 20% will be converted to cash as of January 15, 2006, and the balance will be converted to cash as of February 1, 2006.

 

Management Fee and Operating and Administrative Expenses

 

Effective January 1, 2006, RefcoFund Holdings, LLC, the general partner of the Fund, determined to eliminate the voluntary expense limitation placed on management fees and operating and administrative expenses so as to be able to pay ongoing operating expenses of the Fund.  Management fees and operating and administrative expenses had been limited to 1.70% per annum.
