Two general partners, White Oak Financial Services, Inc. and Mr. Michael Pacult, have the authority to manage the Fund. We refer to them collectively as "the general partner." The general partner is authorized by the partnership agreement to use its sole judgment to employ, establish the terms of employment, and terminate commodity trading advisors and futures commission merchants. This is a best efforts offering. The underwriters are not required to sell any specific number or dollar amount of securities but will use their best efforts to sell the securities offered. All subscriptions received will be placed in an escrow account maintained by the general partner until the minimum, $2,030,000 is sold. If the minimum is sold, the general partner will distribute the escrow account into accounts in the name of the Fund. Interest accrued on your subscription amount will be used to buy additional partnership interests for you. If the minimum is not sold after one year from the date of this prospectus, the general partner will return your original investment, with any interest accrued. You must purchase at least $25,000 in partnership interests, though the general partner may reduce this to no less than $5,000. You have the right to rescind your subscription for five days after it is submitted. The Risks - These securities are highly speculative. Before you decide whether to invest, read this entire prospectus carefully and consider risks below and the complete description of "Risks you face" beginning on page 1. * The Fund business is the speculative trading in futures, commodity options and unregulated currency contracts selected by registered commodity trading advisors. * The Fund is new and has no operating history. * Trading profits and interest income must be generated to offset substantial expenses.

No public market for the partnership interests exists and none is expected to develop. * Although you will not receive distributions, you must pay annual Federal and state income taxes on your share of any profits earned, if any. * This partnership will not make distributions. To receive a return on your investment, you must use our redemption procedure, which is available only after one year and subject to restrictions. * The general partner and affiliates have conflicts of interest with regard to the management of this partnership.

The Fund Providence Select Fund, Limited Partnership: * is a Delaware limited partnership organized on May 16, 2003 * maintains its main business office at 5916 N. 300 West, P. O. Box C, Fremont, Indiana 46737, (260) 833-1306 with duplicate copies of its financial records kept with James Hepner, CPA, 1824 N. Normandy, Chicago, IL 60635, (773) 804-0074 * is operated pursuant to a limited partnership agreement which is included as Exhibit A * is managed and controlled by White Oak Financial Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and Michael Pacult, which we collectively refer to as the general partner. The general partner employs independent professional trading managers called commodity trading advisors to select trades for the Fund. Description of Securities Offered for Sale We are offering a minimum of $2,030,000 and a maximum of $10,000,000 in units of limited partnership interest at a value per unit that is initially established by the general partner at $1,000. After we break escrow, units will be offered at a month end price that reflects trading profits, losses and expenses. Plan For Sale of Partnership Interests All sales will be made through broker dealers that will use their best efforts, which means they will try, but not guarantee, to sell the partnership interests. All subscriptions accepted by the general partner will be placed in an escrow account maintained at Star Financial Bank, Angola, IN until the minimum, $2,030,000 is sold. If the minimum is sold, the escrow account will be distributed into accounts in the name of the Fund. Interest accrued on your subscription amount will be used to buy additional partnership interests for you. If the minimum is not sold after one year from the date of this prospectus, the general partner has directed the bank to return your original investment, with any interest accrued and without any deduction for any expenses. This offering will continue until the maximum of $10,000,000 is sold. The general partner may terminate this offering at any time. Subscription Procedure To purchase partnership interests, you must: * complete and execute a subscription agreement (Exhibit D), and deliver your executed subscription documents and check for your investment, which should be made payable to "Escrow Account-Providence" * make representations and warranties in the Subscription Agreement related to your suitability to purchase the partnership interests. * grant a Power of Attorney to the general partner to take all actions necessary to admit you as a limited partner to the Fund. * pay for at least $25,000 in partnership interests, though the general partner may reduce this amount to not less than $5,000. And you must have either: * a minimum net worth, exclusive of your home, home furnishings and automobiles, of $150,000, or * a minimum annual gross income of $45,000 and a minimum net worth of $45,000, both exclusive of your home, home furnishings and automobiles. The State where you live may impose a higher net worth and income requirement. See Suitability Requirements, Exhibit C to this prospectus. These suitability standards are, in each case, regulatory minimums only, and merely because you meet such standards do not mean that an investment in the units is suitable for you. You may not invest more than 10% of your net worth, exclusive of home, furnishings and automobiles, in the Fund. Will You Benefit From An Investment In The Fund? You are likely to benefit from an investment in the Fund if you want to diversify your portfolio and if you have investment money available that you can afford to lose without adverse consequences to your ability to support your family and your lifestyle. This investment presents the opportunity to participate in markets which are typically not represented in most investors' portfolios and which can be profitable in both rising and falling markets. However, if you cannot afford the risk of losing your entire investment in this partnership, you should not purchase these partnership interests. Business Objectives We are organized to be a commodity pool to engage in the speculative trading of: * futures and forward contracts, which are instruments designed to permit producers to hedge or investors to speculate in various interest rates, commodities, currencies, stock indices and other financial instruments * options on futures and forward contracts, which give the purchaser the right to acquire or sell a given contract at a specified time at a specified price, and * other financial instruments. We cannot guarantee that we will meet our objectives or avoid substantial losses. Summary Risk Factors Investment in the partnership interests is speculative, illiquid, and highly risky. You should purchase partnership interests only if you can afford to lose your entire investment. For a complete description of the risks of an investment in the Fund, see the Risk Factors section beginning on page 1. * Our business is the speculative trading in futures and forward contracts, and options on those contracts, selected by registered commodity trading advisors. This trading is highly leveraged and takes place in very volatile markets. You could lose all or a substantial amount of your investment in the Fund. * The Fund has no operating history. * This partnership pays substantial fixed management fees and commission costs. There is no guarantee that you will receive a return on your investment. To return an initial investment at $1,000.00 per unit of partnership interest after the first year of operation, we must earn a profit of 7.25%, or $72.49 per initial $1,000 partnership interest. * Transfer of your partnership interests will be restricted and there are limitations on your right of redemption to surrender your partnership interests in return for their value. No public market for the partnership interests exists and none is expected to develop. * This partnership will not make distributions. To receive a return on your investment, you must use our redemption procedure, which will only be available after you have held the investment for one year. * Although you will not receive distributions, you must pay Federal and state income taxes on your share of the profits, if any, earned by this partnership for the year in which they are earned. * The general partner and affiliates have conflicts of interest with regard to the management of this partnership. Specifically, the general partner's fees have not been negotiated at arm's length. Charges To The Fund The Fund's charges are substantial and must be offset by trading gains and interest income in order to avoid depletion of the Fund's assets. Entity Nature of Service Amount of Compensation The general partner Manages the Fund 5% incentive fee computed quarterly on net (White Oak Financial Services, Inc. new net profits produced by trading and Mr. Michael Pacult) advisors. $22 per round turn for brokerage commissions. The commodity trading advisor (Fall River Capital, LLC) Selects and enters trades for the Fund 1% annual management fee, paid monthly, of the equity assigned to it to trade. 20% incentive fee computed quarterly on all new net profits it has generated (this includes all profits generated during the quarter, adjusted for changes in trading equity and losses in previous quarters). The futures commission merchants Accept trades from the advisors, clears The Fund pays $22 per round turn for (Citigroup Global Markets, Inc. and the trades; hold the Fund's trading equity brokerage commissions and other costs of Lawrence-Bonfitto Trading Company) entering trades to the general partner (from the $22 per round turn the general partner pays the futures commission merchants) The selling agent (Futures Investment Company and additional selling agents) Solicits and maintains investment in the Fund 4% annual continuing service fee, charged monthly after Fund has commenced trading. Lawyers, Accountants and Others Initial and continuing legal, audit and During the first 12 months: $30,000 in (The Scott Law Firm, P. A., accounting work start-up and operational costs ($20,000 Frank L. Sassetti & Co., in legal fees to break escrow, $5,000 James D. Hepner & Co.) syndication, $5,000 filing) and $25,000 in offering expenses per $2,000,000 of new investment. During operation, $23,000 in annual audit, accounting and legal costs ($18,000 and $5,000, respectively)
Use Of Proceeds The Fund will pay $25,000 for offering expenses and $5,000 for organizational expenses at the break of escrow. After the break of escrow and the sale of additional partnership interests, the Fund will reimburse the general partner for offering costs associated with the sale of additional units. The offering costs are estimated to be $25,000 for each $2,000,000 in face value of units sold. The general partner will apply the remaining Fund assets toward trading commodities and cash reserves. Selection Of Commodity Trading Advisors And Allocation Of Equity The general partner has selected Fall River Capital, LLC to serve as commodity trading advisor of the Fund. The trading advisor is solely responsible for making trades, and neither the general partner nor you will have notice or the opportunity to approve the trades made. The advisor is expected to make short sales on behalf of the Fund. The general partner, without prior notice to you, may terminate or add trading advisors, or change the amount of equity allocated to any or all advisors. Federal Income Tax Aspects In the opinion of The Scott Law Firm, P.A., counsel to the general partner, the Fund is classified as a partnership and will not be considered a publicly-traded partnership taxable as a corporation for Federal income tax purposes. As such, whether or not the Fund has distributed any cash to the limited partners, each limited partner must report his or her allocable share of items of income, gain, loss and deduction of the Fund and is individually liable for income tax on such share. The Fund invests in futures and other commodity contracts, gain or loss on which will, depending on the contracts traded, constitute a mixture of: * ordinary income or loss, and/or * capital gain or loss. Trading losses of the Fund, which will generally constitute capital losses, may only be available to offset a limited amount of interest income allocated to the limited partners. Although the Fund treats the brokerage fees and performance fees paid as ordinary expenses, such expenses may be subject to restrictions on deductibility for federal income tax purposes or be treated as non-deductible, syndication costs by the Internal Revenue Service. Redemptions After you have held the partnership interests for a minimum of one year, you may request the general partner to accept the surrender of your partnership interests for cash. The general partner will try to comply with all redemption requests, but may not be able to do so because of insufficient liquid assets or reserve for contingent claims. No redemptions will be made during the first year of your investment. See, The Limited Partnership Agreement, Redemptions. Diagram of Partnership Structure & Commissions Providence Select Fund, Limited Partnership Please see the previous table under Charges to the Fund for a description of the parties and expenses. [Diagram omitted] The Risks You Face Investment in the partnership interests is speculative, illiquid, and highly risky. You should purchase partnership interests only if you can afford to lose your entire investment. All of the following risks, except payment of fixed expenses, are present without regard to the amount of partnership interests sold. The corporate general partner of this Fund has no experience. White Oak Financial Services, Inc., the corporate general partner, has not previously operated a commodity pool or engaged in any other business. This risk is diminished by the fact that Mr. Pacult, the other general partner, is the sole shareholder and director of Ashley Capital management, Inc., the corporate general partner of Atlas Futures fund, Limited Partnership and is also its individual general partner. Mr. Pacult is also the sole shareholder and director of Belmont Capital Management, Inc., the corporate general partner of Bromwell financial fund, Limited Partnership and is also its individual general partner. The corporate general partner of Atlas and Bromwell each have over three years of commodity pool sponsor experience. We must pay substantial charges, which may limit your ability to receive a return on your investment. We must pay substantial charges, which must be paid before you will realize a profit. They are: * brokerage commissions of $22 per round turn * a management fee to the commodity trading advisor of 1% per year * yearly expenses estimated at $23,000, of which $18,000 is paid for accounting and audit services and $5,000 is paid for legal services * variable operating expenses such as incentive fees to the commodity trading advisors, telephone, postage, and office supplies, and * extra-ordinary expenses such as claims and defense of claims from brokers, partners, and other parties. The incentive fees of 5% to the general partner and 20% to the commodity trading advisor are determined and paid on a quarterly basis. The Fund may be subject to substantial incentive fees in the initial quarters of operation of the Fund that will not be refunded, even if we experience subsequent losses that produce a net loss for that year. See Charges to the Fund. You may not transfer your partnership interests and must rely on our redemption procedures to receive your investment back. You can assign or transfer your partnership interests only with the consent of the general partner, which will be granted only to immediate members of the family, upon death of the owner or other limited circumstances. See The Limited Partnership Agreement, Transfer Of Units Only With Consent Of The General Partner and the Limited Partnership Agreement (Exhibit A). Therefore, you must rely on our redemption procedures to receive your initial investment adjusted to reflect profits, payment of expenses, and losses. See The Limited Partnership Agreement, Redemptions. Your right of redemption is limited. Our redemption procedures provide: * the redemption amount will be based upon the net asset value of the partnership interests as calculated at the end of the month in which the redemption request is received * you must submit your redemption request in a form acceptable to the general partner no less than 10 days prior to the withdrawal date * it must be approved by the general partner, and * it may not be granted if we do not have enough liquid assets. Subject to the foregoing limitations, the general partner attempts to grant all redemption requests within twenty days after the last day of the month in which the redemption request was received. Intervening circumstances may prevent the redemption of partnership interests before they are significantly devalued. See The Limited Partnership Agreement, Exhibit A, Redemptions. Further, substantial redemption requests could adversely affect us by: * the liquidation of positions too rapidly or on unfavorable terms which prevent us from satisfaction of all redemption requests, or * the reduction of our available trading equity at a time when we have an opportunity to earn substantial profit. The Fund depends upon Mr. Pacult, and his absence could cause the Fund to cease operations. You will be relying entirely on the ability of the general partner to select and monitor the commodity trading advisor selected for the Fund. Mr. Pacult is the individual general partner and the sole director and officer of the corporate general partner. If Mr. Pacult becomes unable to perform his duties, the Fund could be required to cease operations and trading until a replacement for him is found. General partner and commodity trading advisors will serve other businesses and may not have adequate time to devote to the Fund. Both general partners expect to manage additional pools in the future that may use the commodity trading advisor. Thus, they may use trading methods similar to those used for the Fund. They may also use the general partner to negotiate better terms for clearing and other services. The commodity trading advisor currently manages other commodity accounts and may manage new accounts, including personal accounts and other commodity pools. Although the commodity trading advisor intends to use similar trading methods for all accounts they manage, they may vary those methods slightly. We cannot guarantee our trading results will be similar to or better than the trading advisor's other accounts. Our business could be adversely affected by the failure of either Mr. Pacult, who is the individual general partner and also the sole director of the corporate general partner, or the trading advisors to devote sufficient time to the Fund affairs. See Risk Factors, Trading Management, and The Commodity Trading Advisors. There are conflicts of interest in the Fund structure which may limit our profits. Before investing in this partnership, you must consider the actual and potential conflicts of interest that exist in our structure and operation. Specifically, Mr. Pacult is also a principal of Futures Investment Company, the principal selling agent. Therefore, the general partner will probably not replace Futures Investment Company as the selling agent because it is paid a 4% continuing service fee on sales made by Shira Pacult, the wife of the individual general partner, and any other associated persons it employs. In addition, because the principal selling agent is affiliated with the general partner, no independent due diligence of this offering will be conducted for your protection. See Risk Factors, Conflicts of Interest, and the Limited Partnership Agreement (Exhibit A). You will be taxed on profits regardless of whether they are distributed. We do not intend to make cash distributions from profits. Regardless of whether distributions have been made, if we realize profits for a fiscal year, you will pay taxes. You will have to pay taxes on profits in a current year which may be lost in future years. We might sustain losses that offset our profits after the end of the year. So you might never receive a distribution equal to your share of our prior year's taxable income. See Federal Income Tax Aspects and The Limited Partnership Agreement (Exhibit A). If the general partner selects new trading advisors, they may not be as profitable as those replaced and the new advisors will not be responsible for recouping any previous losses. We rely upon a commodity trading advisor to generate profits pursuant to an Advisory Contract and Power of Attorney (Exhibit F). A trading advisor may terminate its relationship with the Fund at any time. If this happens, or if the trading advisor becomes unable to serve us for any other reason, the general partner would have to find one or more alternate trading advisors. We cannot guarantee that any alternate trading advisors will trade as profitably as the original trading advisor, or that they will be retained on terms that are as favorable. Also, any new trading advisors will not be obligated to recoup losses, if any, incurred by the prior trading advisor before they are paid incentive fees. The general partner may change the commodity trading advisor and its allocation of equity without notice. Without prior notice to you, the general partner may change the commodity trading advisor and its allocated equity at any time, for any reason. You will not participate in management and may not contest the business decisions of the general partner. You may not manage or conduct our business in any way. If you did, you would be deemed a general partner, which is not allowed by the Limited Partnership Agreement (Exhibit A). Accordingly, you are bound by the business decisions of the general partner. Commodity futures trading is speculative. Commodity futures, forward, and option contract prices are highly volatile. Specifically: * price movements are influenced by such unpredictable variables as: changes in supply and demand; weather; agricultural trade, fiscal, monetary and exchange control programs and policies of governments; national and international political and economic events; and, changes in interest rates, governments, exchanges, and other market authorities that intervene to influence prices * even if the analysis of the fundamental conditions by a commodity trading advisor is correct, prices still may not react as predicted * it is possible for most of our open positions to be unprofitable at the same time * price changes may reach a limit upon which trading rules require a suspension of trading for a specified period of time. It is possible for these limits to be reached in the same direction for successive days. This may prevent us from exiting a position, and when the market reopens, we could suffer a substantial loss on the position. * losses are not limited to the margin allocated to hold the position and may exceed the total equity in our account. During partnership trading, a small price movement can lead to large losses. A small amount of money, called margin, must be deposited to hold or short a contract relative to its value. The margin amount is typically between 3% and 20%. This permits a large percentage gain or loss relative to the margin deposit. For example, if at the time of purchase, 5% of the futures contract price is deposited as margin, a 5% decrease in the position's value will cause a loss of all the equity allocated to the trade, which could equal the entire value of the account. The losses could be substantially more than the margin deposited and the total value of the account. The general partner does not control the trading advisor or its methods and may not be able to prevent large losses. The commodity trading advisor enters trades on our behalf directly with the futures commission merchants. The general partner does not know the trades before they are made, nor does it know the trading advisor's methods, the number of contracts bought or sold, or the margin required. The trading advisor will not notify the general partner of any modifications, additions or deletions to its trading methods and money management principles. We may suddenly suffer large losses before the general partner knows remedial action must be taken. The Fund may be unable to execute a trade before large losses are incurred due to market Lack of Liquidity. It is not always possible to execute a buy or sell order. Such lack of liquidity can be caused by: * a lack of interest in the contract caused by market conditions which produce no persons willing to buy or sell, or * the suspension of trading which may occur because the price limit for a contract has been reached. Most United States commodity exchanges limit price movement in a single direction by rules referred to as price limits. Once these limits have been reached, no trades may be executed at prices beyond the limits for a specified amount of time, usually until the next trading day. However, given sufficient price movement the following day, price limits may be imposed again. Accordingly, price limits may be in effect for protracted time periods. No trading may be made in the direction of the price movement while the limit is in place. The frequency of the imposition of price limits or the length of time they will be in effect cannot be predicted. This causes a lack of liquidity and exposure to substantial losses. These losses could exceed the total equity in our account. Changes in trading equity may adversely affect performance. Commodity trading advisors often are unable to adjust to changes in the amount of money they manage. This is because: * the larger amount of equity under management requires larger trades to be made, which may be more difficult to execute * there are legal limits called position limits upon the number of positions that may be taken on a particular commodity, and * it may be more difficult to scale in positions, which is when a trading advisor takes positions at different prices at different times and then allocates those positions on a ratable basis when a change in its allocated equity occurs. See Appendix I for the full definitions of position limits and scale in positions. The commodity trading advisor will not limit the total equity it accepts and may suffer losses that cause a withdrawal of the equity it manages. A commodity trading advisor's rate of return tends to decrease as the amount of equity under management increases. Failure of commodity brokers or banks could result in loss of assets. If the futures commission merchants or other entities with which our money is on deposit become bankrupt, we might only recover some, if any, of the equity in our account. The deposits in our bank accounts will be insured for only $100,000 and payment on insured deposits may be delayed. When trading in foreign exchanges, if the creditworthiness of the other parties is not maintained, we may lose the value of our positions in those markets. Trading commodities involves entering a contract, or option to contract, for the delivery of goods or money at a future date. The value of the contract or option depends directly upon the creditworthiness of the parties. The general partner has the authority to grant the right to the commodity trading advisor to trade commodities on United States commodity exchanges, foreign commodity exchanges, the inter-bank currency markets, the physical commodity cash markets and any other markets the general partner, in its sole judgment, deems appropriate. The commodity exchange contracts and options traded on United States exchanges are guaranteed by the members' credit. Contracts and options upon foreign commodity exchanges and the inter-bank currency markets are usually not regulated by specific laws and are backed only by the parties to the contracts. It is possible for a price movement in a particular contract or option to be large enough to destroy the creditworthiness of * the contracts and options issued by a particular party, or * all of the contracts and options of an entire market. In that situation, we could lose the entire value of a position with little recourse to regain any of its value. Options trading is highly risky and requires less equity to secure a trade, thus providing greater potential for loss. We expect to trade options, both puts and calls. After a position is taken, a liquid market may not exist for any particular commodity option or at any particular time. In an illiquid market, we may not be able to buy or sell to offset, or liquidate, the positions we have taken. Options trading allows us to trade with less equity on deposit. Accordingly, the risk of loss of the entire account is great. If the price of a contract changes dramatically, we may not be able to exit the position without sustaining substantial loss due to government imposed price limits. The Commodity Futures Trading Commission and the United States commodity exchanges have established limits referred to as Speculative Position Limits or Position Limits. These are different from the price limits described before. They are limits on the maximum net long or net short futures or options positions which any person or group of persons may own, hold, or control in futures contracts. The positions taken among all commodity accounts owned, controlled or managed by a trading advisor and its principals are combined for position limit purposes. Thus, a trading advisor may not be able to hold sufficient positions for us to maximize the return on a particular trade because it may be taking similar positions for others. We may not be able to compete with others with greater resources. Commodity futures trading is highly competitive. We compete with others who may have * greater experience * more extensive information about developments affecting the futures markets * more sophisticated means of analyzing and interpreting the futures markets, and * greater financial resources. Those with greater experience and financial resources have a better chance at trading profitably. For instance, we will not maintain a warehouse to take delivery of commodities and will not have a large capital base to allow us to hold positions through bad times. Resignation of Mr. Pacult as a general partner and subsequent failure of White Oak to maintain its net worth may cause suspension of trading or taxation as a corporation. The North American Securities Administrators Association has established guidelines for commodity pools structured as limited partnerships. Those guidelines require that a sole corporate general partner maintain a net worth during the offering period of either 5% of the offering amount but not less than $50,000, up to a maximum of $1,000,000. White Oak presently has insufficient capital to meet this guideline and, therefore, the loss of Mr. Pacult as an individual general partner could result in the denial or suspension of sales in states that apply the guidelines. Any general partner wishing to voluntarily withdraw from the Fund must give 120 days prior written notice to the limited partners. When the sole general partner of a partnership is a corporation, the tax rules require conditions to be met to allow the Fund to be taxed as a partnership and not as a corporation. To be taxed as a partnership requires that two or more of the following tests be met: * decentralized management * unlimited liability * limited transferability of shares, and * limited continuation of existence. If the Fund were not taxed as a partnership, its income would be taxed at corporate rates and would be distributed to you as dividends. The Fund has an individual general partner and, therefore, these rules are not applicable. If Mr. Pacult resigned or otherwise could not serve as a general partner, the Fund is structured to satisfy all but the decentralized management test and, therefore, in the opinion of tax counsel, would continue to be taxed as a partnership. Our tax status has not been confirmed by an IRS ruling. No such ruling has been or will be requested on our behalf. If we are taxed as a corporation for Federal income tax purposes in any taxable year(s), * our income or loss would not be passed through to you * we would be taxed at corporate rates * all or a portion of any distributions made to you would be taxed to you as dividend income, and * the amount of such distributions would not be deductible by us in computing our taxable income. See Federal Income Tax Aspects. If Mr. Pacult resigns and White Oak becomes the sole general partner, it will use its best efforts to satisfy the requirements necessary to permit us to be taxed as a partnership. The general partner will not advise you, and you must rely upon your own investment counsel before investing in the Fund. Purchasing partnership interests does not create an Individual Retirement Account, commonly called an IRA, and the creation and administration of an IRA are solely your responsibility. The assets of a retirement account should be carefully diversified and you should only allocate high risk capital to this partnership. If you invest a significant portion of your retirement plan or IRA assets in this partnership, you could be exposing that portion to significant loss. The general partner will not advise you in any manner on an investment in this partnership, including matters of diversification, prudence and liquidity. Accordingly, you must rely upon the experience of qualified investment counsel you select. The Fund is not covered by the Investment Company Act of 1940. Stock investment companies and investment advisors must be registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Because the business of the Fund, White Oak Financial Services, Inc., Mr. Pacult and the commodity trading advisors involves only the trade of commodities, none of them are required, nor do they intend, to be registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 or any similar state law. Therefore, you are not protected by any such legislation. However, you are protected by the Commodity Exchange Act, which requires the general partner and the commodity trading advisors to be registered and otherwise protects your commodity investment in the Fund similar to the protection the Investment Company Act offers certain stock investments. Possibility of audit - you may be subject to audit and penalties. If our return is audited, the IRS may make adjustments to our reported items. If an audit results in an adjustment, you may be: * required to file amended returns * subject to a separate IRS audit, and * required to pay back taxes, plus penalty and interest. General partner may settle IRS claim not in your best interest. White Oak Financial Services, Inc. is named tax matters partner. This grants it the power to settle any IRS claim on your behalf if you hold 1% or less interest in this partnership and do not timely object to the tax matters partner's authority, after notice. Such settlement may not necessarily be in your best interest. See Federal Income Tax Aspects. You may be subject to back taxes and penalties. The Fund tax counsel has delivered an opinion to the general partner that this partnership, as it is intended to be operated by the general partner, will be taxed as a partnership and not as a corporation. This opinion does not include the tax treatment of expenses to prepare the prospectus and selling expenses because they have to be allocated between expenses attendant to formation and ordinary business expenses by the general partner. In addition, commodity trading advisor fees are combined with employee business expenses and other expenses of producing income. The aggregate of such expenses is deductible only if such amount exceeds 2% of the taxpayer's adjusted gross income. The general partner believes that our intended operations will qualify as a trade or business. The general partner may raise the incentive fee to 27% without prior notice to you. The general partner has reserved the right to raise, without prior notice to you, the incentive fee to a maximum of 27% while lowering the total management fees between the commodity trading advisors and general partner to 0%. The general partner will notify you of any change in fees within seven business days. Conflicts Of Interest There are present and potential future conflicts of interest in our structure and operation you should consider before you purchase partnership interests. The general partner will use this notice of conflicts as a defense against any claim or other proceeding made against Mr. Pacult, White Oak Financial Services, Inc., the commodity trading advisor, the futures commission merchants, or any principal or affiliate, agent or employee of any of them. General partner, the commodity trading advisors and their principals may preferentially trade for themselves and others. Because the general partner, the commodity trading advisors and their principals and affiliates may trade for themselves and others, conflicts of interest may exist or be created in the future. None of these people are limited in trading commodities for their own account, and you will not have access to any of their personal trading records. They could possibly take their personal positions prior to the positions they know they will place for you, although, they have stated they will not do so. Possible retention of voting control by the general partner may limit your ability to control issues. The general partner, its principal and its affiliates may purchase an unlimited amount of partnership interests. These persons include Mr. Pacult as general partner and as a principal of Futures Investment Company, the selling agent. It is possible that they could purchase enough partnership interests to retain voting control. They could then vote, individually or as a block, to create a conflict with your best interests. Such voting control may limit the limited partners' ability to achieve a majority vote on such issues as: * amendment of the Limited Partnership Agreement * change in our basic investment policy * dissolution of this partnership, or * the sale or distribution of our assets. However, neither general partner may vote on the issue of their removal. Partnership fees may be higher than they would be if they were negotiated. The round turn commission of $22 paid to the general partner has not been negotiated at arm's length. The general partner: * accepts the credit risk of the Fund to the futures commission merchants; * reviews the daily positions and margin requirements of the Fund; and * pays the futures commission merchants' charges. Mr. Pacult is a principal and 50% owner of Futures Investment Company, the principal selling agent. As such, Mr. Pacult has a conflict of interest between his obligation to manage this partnership and his financial interest in receiving the continuing service fees as an owner of the selling agent. Our profitability may be limited due to competition among the traders for similar trades and their unaccountability for previous losses. The general partner has sole and absolute discretion to select and terminate commodity trading advisor. If a trading advisor is replaced, the new trading advisor will receive any earned incentive fees regardless of the previous trading advisor's performance. As incentive fees are paid based upon each trading advisor's performance, it would be possible for us to experience a net loss and be required to pay out incentive fees to one or more traders. Commodity trading advisor may engage in high risk trading to generate fees. As a general rule, the greater the risk assumed, the greater the potential for profit. Because the commodity trading advisor receives 20% of our new net profits, it might select trades that are too risky for us. Mr. Pacult has sole control over the time he will allocate to the management of the affairs of the Fund. Mr. Pacult is responsible for: * managing this partnership and two other publicly traded partnerships and * performing other investor relations services as a principal and associated person of Futures Investment Company. Mr. Pacult has also reserved the right to trade for his own account and to form and manage other commodity pools and ventures in the future. Mr. Pacult is solely responsible for the allocation of his time to the management of this partnership as well as the other projects he currently manages and will manage in the future. Mr. Pacult manages his time, in part, by the delegation of many of the tasks, such as trade selection and preparation of financial reports and offering documentation, to independent commodity trading advisors, accountants, and attorneys. Mr. Pacult believes he presently has and will, in the future, have sufficient time to devote to the affairs of the Fund. No Resolution Of Conflicts Procedures As is typical in many futures partnerships, the general partner has not and will not establish formal procedures to resolve potential conflicts of interest. These future potential conflicts may adversely affect both you and us. However, the general partner has taken steps to alleviate any real or potential conflict of interest by the establishment of segregated accounts to hold partnership equity at the banks and futures commission merchants. Also, the general partner has assured the selling agent that all money on deposit is in the name of and for the beneficial use of the Fund. The payment of a 5% incentive fee to the general partner is an incentive to the general partner to resolve conflicts in favor of profitability to the Fund. In addition, once the minimum is sold and trading commences, the better the track record of profitability for the Fund, the easier it is expected to be to sell units to reach the maximum number of units registered for sale. This will increase the opportunity for a larger incentive fee to the general partner. The previous risk factors and conflicts of interest are complete as of the date of this prospectus, however, additional risks and conflicts may occur which are not presently foreseen by the general partner. You may not construe this prospectus as legal or tax advice. Before making an investment in this partnership, you should read this entire prospectus, including the Limited Partnership Agreement (Exhibit A) and the subscription agreement. You should also consult with your personal legal, tax, and other professional advisors. See Investor Suitability. Interests Of Named Experts And Counsel The general partner has employed The Scott Law Firm, P.A., a Florida, professional corporation, to prepare this prospectus, provide tax advice and opine upon the legality of issuing the partnership interests. Neither the law firm, its principal, any accountant, nor any other expert hired by the Fund to give advice on the preparation of this offering document have been hired on a contingent fee basis. Nor do any of them have any present or future expectation of interest in the general partner, the selling agent, the commodity trading advisor, or the futures commission merchants. Management's Discussion And Analysis The Fund Providence Select Fund, Limited Partnership is a Delaware limited partnership organized on May 16, 2003, and maintains its main business office at 5916 N. 300 West, P. O. Box C, Fremont, IN 46737, (260) 833-1306. It is qualified to be a commodity pool to engage in the speculative trading of futures, commodity options and forward contracts on currencies, interest rates, energy and agriculture products, metals, and stock indices. Our business objective is to let our invested capital appreciate while controlling losses; however, there can be no assurance that we will meet this objective. The Fund is managed by its general partners, White Oak Financial Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and Mr. Michael Pacult. We do not have officers or employees, which is why there is no report of executive compensation in this prospectus. We operate pursuant to the terms of the limited partnership agreement attached as Exhibit A, which: * grants full management control to the general partner including, the right to employ independent trading managers called commodity trading advisors, and * will terminate at 11:59 p.m. on May 16, 2024, or upon an event causing an earlier termination. Except for the limited partnership agreement, the Fund may not enter any contract with the general partner or commodity trading advisors that is greater than one year in duration. However, all such contracts may provide for automatic annual renewal and be terminable at anytime without penalty upon sixty days, or less, written notice by the either party to the contract. The General Partners The corporate general partner is White Oak Financial Services, Inc., a Delaware corporation incorporated on April 21, 2003. It was registered as a commodity pool operator on May 14, 2003 and maintains its main business office at 5916 N. 300 West, P.O. Box C, Fremont, IN 46737, (260) 833-1306. The individual general partner is Michael Pacult, who was registered as a commodity pool operator on June 28, 2003 and maintains his main business office at 5916 N. 300 West, P.O. Box C, Fremont, IN 46737, (260) 833-1306. The individual and corporate general partners and the Fund will comply with all applicable registration and other requirements under the Commodity Exchange Act, as amended. Experience White Oak Financial Services, Inc., the corporate general partner, has not previously operated a commodity pool or engaged in any other business. Mr. Pacult, the other general partner, is a shareholder and sole director of Ashley Capital Management, Inc., the corporate general partner of Atlas Futures Fund, Limited Partnership and is also its individual general partner. Mr. Pacult is also the sole shareholder and director of Belmont Capital Management, Inc., the corporate general partner of Bromwell Financial Fund, Limited Partnership and is also its individual general partner. The corporate general partner of both Atlas and Bromwell are under Mr. Pacult's supervision and guidance and have more than three years of experience as a sponsor of a commodity pool. Authority Mr. Pacult is the sole director and officer of White Oak Financial Services, Inc. Although the signature of either White Oak or Mr. Pacult, individually, may bind this partnership, Mr. Pacult is the sole decision maker for this partnership. He also is the sole decision maker for two other publicly traded commodity pools. The general partner is authorized to take all actions necessary to manage the affairs of the Fund. See Article II of the Limited Partnership Agreement, attached as Exhibit A. Partnership Books and Records Our books and records will be maintained for six years at 5916 N. 300 West, P. O. Box C, Fremont, IN 46737. A duplicate set of the books will be maintained by Mr. James Hepner, Certified Public Accountant, 1824 N. Normandy, Chicago, IL 60635, (773) 804-0074. Mr. Hepner keeps the Fund original books and prepares the IRS Form K-1s. You may access our books and records related to the partnership and your account by visiting either office at a mutually convenient time and you may have copies made for ten cents per page. The general partner serves as tax partner for the Fund. The CPA firm of Frank L. Sassetti, & Co., 6611 West North Avenue, Oak Park, IL 60302 conducts our annual audit and the annual audit of the corporate general partner, and prepares our tax returns. The Commodity Trading Advisor To conduct trading on our behalf, the general partner has initially selected an independent commodity trading advisor, Fall River Capital, LLC. Without prior notice to you, the general partner has sole discretion to employ additional trading advisors, terminate any trading advisor, and change the amount of equity any advisor may trade. However, the general partner will give you notice of any change in trading advisors within seven days of such change. Such notice will include a description of your right to: * redemption * vote to amend the limited partnership agreement * remove one or both general partners * elect a new general partner * cancel any contract with a general partner or any of its affiliates upon 60 days notice, and * dissolve the Fund. No change in trading advisors will constitute a material change to the limited partnership agreement or the structure of our operation. All trading advisors employed to trade for the Fund will be registered with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission and will have at least three years of experience as a trading advisor. The Advisory Contracts The general partner has assigned a substantial portion of our assets to be traded by the trading advisor. The authority granted to the trading advisor is expressed in the advisory contract and power of attorney granted by the Fund to the trading advisor and the clearing broker. See Exhibit F. This agreement provides the trading advisor with a revocable power of attorney, which gives it sole authority to determine * the markets to be traded * the location of those markets * the size of the position to be taken in each market, and * the timing of entry and exit in a market. The advisory contract and power of attorney may be terminated, at any time, upon notice by either the Fund or the trading advisor to the other and to the futures commission merchants. Business Objective And Expenses Our objective is to achieve the potentially high rates of return that are possible through the speculative trading of futures, commodity options and forward contracts. We do not expect to engage in any other business. The general partner organized this partnership to be a commodity pool, as that term is defined under the Commodity Exchange Act. As such, it employs independent commodity trading advisors to trade for us. The general partner intends to allocate substantially all of our net assets to the selected trading advisor to conduct this trading. The trading advisor typically allocates between 10% and 30% of the trading equity assigned to it as a deposit, or margin, to secure the trading positions it selects. Under certain market conditions, this range could be substantially higher. Although we do not expect to make distributions, you will nevertheless be required to pay yearly Federal, state and local taxes upon income, if any, earned by this partnership. There can be no assurance that we will achieve our business objectives, be able to pay the substantial fixed and other costs to do business, or avoid substantial trading losses. See Charges to the Fund. Below is a chart explaining the expenses we expect to incur during the first twelve months of trading. All interest income is paid to the Fund. The chart below assumes the value of each unit of partnership interest will remain constant at $1,000 per partnership interest during the first twelve months. Expenses Per Unit of Partnership Interest For The Next 12-Month Period Of Operations Based Upon Based Upon Minimum Units Sold Maximum Units Sold Units (1) 2,030 Units 10,000 Units ($2,030,000) ($10,000,000) Selling Price per Unit (2) $1,000.00 $1,000.00 Offering and Organizational Expenses (3) 14.78 12.96 Operating Expenses (4) 11.33 2.30 Continuing Compensation (5) 40.00 40.00 Trading Advisor's Management Fee (6) 9.70 9.70 Brokerage Commissions and Trading Fees (8) 26.68 26.68 Interest Income (9) (30.00) (30.00) Trading Income Required to Redeem one Unit at Initial Value at end of period (10) and (11) $ 72.49 $ 61.64 Income as a % of Selling Price Per Unit (11) and (12) 7.25% 6.16% Explanatory Notes: (1) Your investment will be held in escrow and not used for trading until a minimum of 2,030 units of partnership interests for a total equity to the partnership of $2,030,000 are sold. The partnership has currently registered on a Form S-1, filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, a maximum of $10,000,000 of partnership interests to be sold. The general partner may register additional partnership interests, from time to time. (2) You will purchase partnership interests at the partnership's initial unit value established by the general partner of $1,000. (3) The general partner, subject to reimbursement by the partnership, will advance the offering expenses. Such expenses for the first year are estimated to be $30,000. Your share of the expenses will be deducted from your subscription amount before you are assigned partnership interests. After break of escrow, the offering expenses are estimated to be $25,000 per year for the next three years or until the maximum value of partnership interests is sold, whichever occurs first. The additional offering expenses will be deducted from the Fund when incurred. See Use of Proceeds. (4) The partnership will incur yearly operating expenses commencing after the break of escrow of approximately $18,000 for accounting and $5,000 for legal. (5) Selling agents will receive continuing compensation of 4% annually paid from the date of the break of escrow at the rate of 1/3% per month of the value of interests they sold or referred that are in the partnership on the last day of each month. (6) The commodity trading advisor is paid a monthly management fee of 1/12% of the trading equity allocated to it on deposit in the futures commission merchants accounts, calculated as of the close of business of the last trading day during the previous month. For purposes of this calculation, the initial trading equity of $970 per partnership interest sold has been presumed to remain constant throughout the year. No incentive fees are payable to either the commodity trading advisor or the general partner during the first year to breakeven because they have waived their incentive fees on the first $100,000 of offering expenses, and the brokerage commissions and continuing service fees are expenses to be recovered before new net profit is determined. For purposes of the above calculation of the amount of income necessary to break even at the end of the first year, we have assumed that the offering expenses during the first year will be less than $100,000. (8) For purposes of this calculation the brokerage commissions have been assumed to be an average of $22 per round turn. The calculation also assumes that $970 is constant and available to trade during the year. The commodity trading advisor will enter trades on behalf of the partnership directly to two unaffiliated futures commission merchants, Citigroup Global Markets, Inc. and Lawrence-Bonfitto Trading Company. The futures commission merchants will hold the partnership equity allocated to trading, place the trades as directed by the trading advisor, and provide an account statement to disclose the financial results of the trades to the general partner and the trading advisor. (9) We earn interest on margin deposits with the futures commission merchants and on our bank deposits. Interest income is estimated to be 3% annually of our net assets. All interest income will be paid to the partnership. (10) This computation assumes there will be no claims or other extra-ordinary expenses. (11) There is no redemption fee. You will be permitted to withdraw your subscriptions for five days after submission to the general partner for acceptance. Once admitted as a limited partner, you are required to maintain your investment in the partnership for twelve months from the date of the break of escrow or, after break of escrow, from the date of your purchase of partnership interests. (12) The break-even numbers in the above tables are our best estimates only. Securities Offered We, Providence Select Fund, Limited Partnership will offer and sell limited partnership interests in this partnership at the initial price of $1,000. After the break of escrow and commencement of business, the partnership interests will be sold at the month end net asset value per unit of the Fund. See Determination Of The Offering Price. You, the Investor: * will have: * pro rata rights to profit and losses which will vary with your investment amount * the right to vote on partnership matters such as the replacement of the general partner. See The Limited Partnership agreement attached as Exhibit A. * will not: * be responsible for our debts in excess of your investment amount; unless: * we become insolvent; and * you receive distributions which represent a return on your investment, in which case you may have to return the distributions to pay our debts * acquire any interest in the corporate general partner, White Oak Financial Services, Inc., and * manage this partnership See Plan For Sale of Partnership Interests and Subscription Requirements. Your subscription agreement and check: * must be approved by the general partner before you will become a partner and will be either rejected within five business days of receipt or accepted at the break of escrow or on the close of business on the last day of the month in which your subscription was received. * becomes irrevocable and may not be withdrawn after five days after submission; unless, a longer statutory withdrawal period applies to you, and * will be deposited and held until you are admitted into the Fund in a segregated escrow account. There cannot be any assurance that the minimum partnership interests will be sold. The general partner is authorized, in its sole discretion, to terminate this or any future offering of partnership interests. Management's Discussion This is the initial offering of our partnership interests. We: * may conduct future offerings after the close of this offering * raise money only through offerings, such as this one, and do not intend to borrow any money * must pay expenses to qualify our partnership interests for sale, such as office equipment, fees for the preparation of this prospectus, as well as other expenses * allocate all our net assets to trading and other investments, except those assets used to pay operating expenses and reserves for redemptions and contingencies * have no directors, officers or employees, which is why there is no report of executive compensation in this prospectus, and * conduct all our business through the general partner. Description of Intended Operations The general partner has selected two unaffiliated futures commission merchants, Citigroup Global Markets, Inc. and Lawrence-Bonfitto Trading Company. When the Fund breaks escrow, the general partner will deposit its funds to the futures commission merchants to hold as security for the trades selected by the commodity trading advisor. The futures commission merchants have been directed to send the general partner, before the open of business each day, a computer or fax report that describes * the positions held * the margin allocated, and * the profit or loss on the positions from the date the positions were taken Risk Control The general partner reviews the daily transmissions provided by the futures commission merchants and makes appropriate adjustments to the allocation of trading equity. Based upon the amount of available trading equity, the trading advisor has sole discretion to: * make specific trades, * determine the number of positions taken, and * decide the timing of entry and departure from each trade made. The general partner uses its best efforts to monitor the daily net asset value of the Fund, which it calculates from the daily information provided by the futures commission merchants, and makes such information available to limited partners upon request. However, the accountant calculates the partnership's net asset value per investor unit after the close of business on the last day of each month. If the net asset value per unit falls to less than 50% of the greater of * the original $1000 selling price less commissions and other charges, or * such higher value earned through trading, then the general partner will: * immediately suspend all trading * provide you with immediate notice of the reduction in net unit value, and * give you the opportunity, for 15 days after the date of such notice, to redeem your partnership interests according to the provisions of Article IX, Sections 9.5 and 9.6 of the Limited Partnership Agreement. No trading shall commence until after such fifteen-day period. See Exhibit A attached. Trading Risks Most United States commodity exchanges limit daily fluctuations in commodity futures contracts prices by regulations referred to as daily price fluctuation limits or daily limits. Once the price of a futures contract has reached the daily limit for that day, positions in that contract can neither be taken nor liquidated. Commodity futures prices have occasionally moved the daily limit for several consecutive days with little or no trading. Such an occurrence could prevent us from promptly liquidating unfavorable positions and subject us to substantial losses. These losses could exceed the margin initially required to make the trade. In addition, even if commodity futures prices have not moved the daily limit, we may not be able to execute futures trades at favorable prices. This may be caused by light trading in such contracts or by a sudden and substantial price move in a futures or forward contract. These limitations on liquidity are inherent in our proposed commodity futures trading operations. Otherwise, our assets are expected to be highly liquid. Except for payment of offering and other expenses, the general partner is unaware of any anticipated: * known demands, commitments or required capital expenditures, * material trends, favorable or unfavorable, which will affect our capital resources, or * trends or uncertainties that will have a material effect on operations. Each United States commodity exchange, with the approval of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, establishes minimum margin requirements for each traded contract, which futures commission merchants require to be on deposit before a trade will be accepted. The futures commission merchants may increase the margin requirements above these minimums for any or all contracts for its customers. Because we generally use a small percentage of assets for margin, we do not believe that any increase in margin requirements will materially affect our proposed operations. Management cannot predict whether the value of our partnership interests will increase or decrease. Inflation is not projected to be a significant factor in our operations, except to the extent inflation influences futures prices. Fiduciary Responsibility and Remedies You have legal rights under Delaware partnership and applicable Federal and state securities laws. In all dealings affecting this partnership, the general partner has a fiduciary responsibility to you and all other partners to exercise good faith and fairness. No contract shall permit the general partner to contract away its fiduciary obligation under common law. The limited partnership agreement conforms with the Uniform Limited Partnership Act for the State of Delaware in regard to the definition of the fiduciary duties of the general partner. If the general partner acts in good faith and exercises its best judgment, it will not be liable merely because we lost money or otherwise did not meet our business objectives. Additionally, there are substantial and inherent conflicts of interest in the Fund's structure which are inconsistent with the general partners' fiduciary duties. The general partner intends to raise the disclosures made in this prospectus and the representations you make in the subscription agreement as a defense in any proceeding brought which seeks relief based on the existence of such conflicts of interest. See Conflicts of Interest. In the event that you form the belief that the general partner has violated its fiduciary duty, you may seek relief individually or on behalf of the partnership under applicable laws, including the partnership laws of Delaware and the Federal commodity laws, to recover damages from or require an accounting by the general partner. You also have the right, subject to applicable contractual, procedural and jurisdictional requirements, to bring partnership class actions in Federal court to enforce your rights and the rights of the other limited partners under the Federal and state securities laws and the rules and regulations under those laws. Losses suffered by you as a result of a breach of the securities laws related to sale of your investment to you may be recovered from the general partner should the breach of those laws been caused by the general partner. The responsibility of a general partner to you and other partners is a changing area of the law. If you have questions concerning the responsibilities of the general partner, you should consult your legal counsel. The performance of the general partner for the operation of the partnership and its fiduciary duty are governed by the limited partnership agreement attached as Exhibit A. Indemnification Provisions of Limited Partnership Agreement The limited partnership agreement protects the general partner from being responsible or accountable for any act or omission, for which you, other limited partners or the Fund itself may claim it is liable, provided that the general partner determined such act or omission was within the scope of its authority and in the best interest of this partnership, and such action or failure to act does not constitute misconduct or a breach of the Federal or state securities laws related to the sale of partnership interests. Specifically, if the general partner has acted within the scope of its authority and is being assessed a demand, claim or lawsuit by a partner or other entity, the Fund will defend, indemnify and hold the general partner harmless from and against any loss, liability, damage, cost or expense, including attorneys' and accountants' fees and expenses incurred in defense of any demands, claims or lawsuits which were actually and reasonably incurred and arising from any act, omission, activity or conduct undertaken by or on behalf of the Fund. Provisions of Law According to applicable law, indemnification of the general partner is payable only if the general partner determined, in good faith, that the act, omission or conduct that gave rise to the claim for indemnification was in the best interest of the Fund and the act, omission or activity that was the basis for such loss, liability, damage, cost or expense was not the result of negligence or misconduct and such liability or loss was not the result of negligence or misconduct by the general partner, and such indemnification or agreement to hold harmless is recoverable only out of the assets of the Fund and not from the partners, individually. Provisions of Federal and State Securities Laws This offering is made pursuant to Federal and State securities laws. If any indemnification of the general partner arises out of an alleged violation of such laws, it is subject to the following legal conditions. Those conditions require that no indemnification may be made in respect of any losses, liabilities or expenses arising from or out of an alleged violation of Federal or state securities laws unless: there has been a successful adjudication on the merits of each count involving alleged securities law violations as to the general partner or other particular indemnitee, or such claim has been dismissed with prejudice on the merits by a court of competent jurisdiction as to the general partner or other particular indemnitee, or a court of competent jurisdiction approves a settlement of the claims against the general partner or other agent of the Fund and finds that indemnification of the settlement and related costs should be made, provided, before seeking such approval, the general partner or other indemnitee must apprise the court of the position held by regulatory agencies against such indemnification. These agencies are the Securities and Exchange Commission and the securities administrator of the state or states in which the plaintiffs claim they were offered or sold partnership interests. Provisions of the Securities Act of 1933 and NASAA Guidelines The Securities and Exchange Commission and the various state administrators believe that indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 are unenforceable because such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and the North American Securities Administrators Association, Inc. commodity pool guidelines. Provisions of the Clearing Agreement We clear trades through two futures commission merchants, Citigroup Global Markets, Inc. and Lawrence-Bonfitto Trading Company. According to the clearing agreements that govern these trades, we must indemnify them for any reasonable outside and in-house attorney's fees incurred by it arising from any failure to perform our duties under the clearing agreements. Other Indemnification Provisions The general partner has indemnified the selling agent, Futures Investment Company, and expects to indemnify any other selling agents it selects that there are no misstatements or omissions of material facts in this prospectus. Relationship With The Futures Commission Merchants And The General Partner As the general partner, White Oak supervises the relationship with the futures commission merchant, including * the negotiation of the round turn commission rates incurred through trading via the commodity trading advisor, and * review of the daily reports. White Oak has engaged Citigroup Global Markets, Inc. and Lawrence-Bonfitto Trading Company to act as the futures commission merchants. Commissions are Competitive The general partner is obligated to obtain the best commission rates available to us. Accordingly, the general partner is free to select any substitute or additional futures commission merchants at any time, for any reason. However, neither the corporate general partner, nor Mr. Pacult acting as a general partner, is likely to dismiss the current broker because of the difference in brokerage commissions retained by the general partner. The general partner believes the $22 per round turn commission charged the fund is competitive with the rates charged to similar accounts for similar services. Either general partner or any other commodity pool operated by them may obtain commission rates to clear trades that are more favorable to their accounts than the $22 per round turn commissions the general partner charges us. Relationship With The Commodity Trading Advisor The Commodity Trading Advisor Will Trade For Other Accounts The commodity trading advisor will trade for its own accounts and for others on a discretionary basis. It may use trading methods, policies and strategies for others that differ from those used for us. Consequently, such accounts may have different trading results from those experienced by us. Because the trading advisor trades for itself and others, it is possible for it to take positions ahead of or opposite positions taken on our behalf, which presents a potential conflict of interest. See Appendix I for Taking Positions Ahead of the Fund. Pursuant to Commodity Futures Trading Commission Regulation 421.03, the trading advisor will use the average price system for those futures and options contracts where its use is authorized, when: * trades taken on behalf of both the Fund and the trading advisor's other accounts are identical, and * the prices of such trades are different. See Appendix I for the definition of Average Price System. The commodity trading advisor has also informed the general partner that when the average price system is not available, trades will be filled in order based on the numerical account numbers, with the lowest price allocated to the lowest account number and in numerical matching sequence, thereafter. Non-Disclosure Of The Commodity Trading Advisor's Methods We have provided a general description of the commodity trading advisor's methods and strategies under The Commodity Trading Advisor, Description of Trading Program. However, the specific details of its trading methods are proprietary and complex in nature and will not be disclosed to us or you. No notice will be given to you of any changes the trading advisor may make in its trading methods. See Risk Factors, No Notice of Trades or Trading Method. Charges To The Fund As an investor in this partnership, you will pay the cost of our operation. These charges are described in narrative form and in the chart that follows this narrative. In this prospectus, we have disclosed all compensation, fees, profits and other benefits, including reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses, which the general partner and its affiliates will earn in connection with this offering. Some of these charges were not negotiated at arm's length, but rather were determined by the general partner. Compensation Of General Partner The general partner has reserved the right to charge a management fee of up to 6% per year, at its sole discretion, provided the incentive fee is appropriately reduced. See Charges to the Fund, Restrictions on Management Fees. Compensation Of The Commodity Trading Advisor The commodity trading advisor will be allocated equity to trade from funds that will be deposited in an account with the futures commission merchant. Fall River Capital, LLC is allocated equity through partnership accounts maintained at Citigroup Global Markets, Inc. and Lawrence Bonfitto Trading Company. Each month, we deduct from the Fund's account managed by the trading advisor 1/12%, or 1% annually, computed upon the close of business on the last trading day of the previous month and pay it directly to the trading advisor as a management fee. The general partner has reserved the right to change this fee at its sole discretion. See Charges to the Fund, Restrictions on Management Fees. For those quarters in which a commodity trading advisor operates profitably, the Fund pays that advisor an incentive fee equal to 20% of the new net profit produced by that trading advisor. The Fund also pays the general partner a 5% incentive fee of the net new net profit earned by the Fund. If there is more than one advisor, the general partner will get paid on the net new net profit generated by all trading advisors combined, with net losses from previous quarters being carried through the present quarter. If the Fund has multiple trading advisors, it would also be possible for one advisor to earn an incentive fee while the Fund as a whole lost money because of the poor trading performance of another advisor. New net profit: * is calculated to determine how much a trading advisor has increased our net assets through trading alone * is based upon the net value of the equity assigned to the trading advisor to trade * is calculated quarterly * only occurs when any losses in previous quarters have been offset by new profits regardless of whether: * the general partner has changed the trading advisor's compensation, or * the Fund and trading advisor have entered a new contract * is adjusted to eliminate the effects of: * any new subscriptions for partnership interests * redemptions by partners * interest income paid by the futures commission merchant, and * any other income earned on our assets which are not related to such trading activity, regardless of whether such assets are held separately or in a margin account. The following hypothetical table illustrates the quarterly incentive fee that would be earned by the trading advisor and the general partner based on the new net income, as calculated above. Qtr Net Income CTA (20%) GP (5%) 1 $ 1,000 $ 200 $ 50 2 (200) 0 0 3 1,000 160 40 4 500 100 25 Restrictions on Management Fees It is possible that some of the States in which we wish to sell partnership interests will require that we comply with the North American Securities Administrators Association Guidelines for commodity pools. These guidelines provide that: * the total management fees, including that of the general partner and the commodity trading advisors, may not exceed 6% of our net assets, and * incentive fees based upon profits earned may not exceed 15% of new net profits. As permitted by the guidelines, without prior notice to you, the general partner has reserved the right to raise the current incentive fee to a maximum of 27%, provided the management fees are correspondingly lowered to 0%. However, the general partner will notify you of any change in fees within seven business days. Brokerage Commissions Brokerage Fees Paid To the General Partner by the Fund The general partner charges the Fund a round turn commission of $22 to cover all clearing costs, including the pit brokerage fees, National Futures Association fees, and exchange fees. The general partner is responsible for all payments to the futures commission merchants and retains the difference between the round turn commission charge to the partnership and the payments made to the futures commission merchants. Continuing Service Fees The general partner, at the expense of the Fund, pays a monthly continuing compensation to the selling agents and introducing brokers who are qualified to provide services to the Fund and the investors. The continuing service fees are four percent per year paid at the rate of 1/3% of the value of the partnership interests in the Fund at the close of business on the last day of each month. The recipients of the continuing commission are responsible for maintaining investment in this partnership. This must be done to: * spread the potential risk of losses over a large number of investors to protect our ability to continue in business, and * allow the long-term trading strategies of the commodity trading advisors to be profitable so additional investments can be solicited. The Fund pays continuing service fees to the persons responsible for selling the partnership interests to: * maintain continuous contact with the partners to whom they sold interests in the Fund * review of the daily runs to be aware of the Fund results to discuss with the investors * explain changes in trading advisors and results from operations * answer questions regarding the Fund, and * work to retain investment in the Fund. Miscellaneous Fees To Futures Commission Merchant We will reimburse the futures commission merchant for all delivery, insurance, storage or other charges incidental to trading and paid to third parties. The general partner has instructed the trading advisor to avoid these charges and, therefore, no significant charges of this nature are anticipated. Rights of General Partner Without prior notification to you, the general partner has reserved the right to: * change, add or delete any futures commission merchant * change the round turn commission rate * have the Fund pay a fixed percentage brokerage commission as opposed to a round turn charge, at any time, with or without a change in circumstances; provided, however, such brokerage commissions cannot exceed * 80% of the published retail rate of the broker and other similar brokers, excluding pit brokerage fees, charged to accounts similar to the Fund. Other Expenses We must pay legal and accounting fees, as well as other expenses and claims. For each year of normal operations, we must pay yearly legal and accounting costs of approximately $23,000, which includes $18,000 for accounting and audit and $5,000 for legal services. We must also pay customary and routine administrative expenses, and other direct expenses. We will reimburse the general partner for direct expenses, such as periodic amendments to the disclosure document and prospectus used to solicit investment, audit fees, delivery charges, statement preparation and mailing costs, telephone toll charges, and postage. Charges To The Fund The following table includes all charges to the Fund. Entity Form of Compensation Amount of Compensation General Partner Brokerage Commission $22 per round turn. A portion of this (White Oak Financial Services, Inc. commission will be paid by the general and Michael Pacult) partner to the clearing brokers (see futures commission merchants below). Incentive Fee 5% of the new net profits of the account for each quarterly period that the net value of the trading equity at the end of such quarterly period for all trading advisors exceeds the highest previous quarterly net value of the trading equity for all advisors Selling Agent Continuing Service Fee 4% continuing service fee, charged (Futures Investment Company) monthly after Fund business has commenced.

The Fund will pay $18,000 for audit and accounting and $5,000 for legal each year of operation. Claims and other costs cannot be estimated and will be paid or reserved as incurred.
Potential Advantages Commodity trading is speculative and involves a high degree of risk. See Risk Factors. However, your investment in this partnership will offer the following potential advantages: Equity Management We offer the opportunity for you to: * place equity with registered commodity trading advisors who have demonstrated an ability to trade profitably in the judgment of the general partner, and * have that equity allocated to the trading advisors in a manner that is intended by the general partner to optimize future profit potential. Mr. Pacult has over twenty years of experience in selecting commodity trading advisors to manage individual investor accounts and describing to investors how individual managed futures accounts work. We expect this experience to benefit us in the quality of trading advisors selected and in the explanation to prospective investors of our operation and the attendant risks of investment. Investment Diversification If you are not prepared to spend substantial time trading various commodity contracts or options, you may participate in these markets through a $25,000 investment in the Fund, thereby obtaining diversification from investments in stocks, bonds and real estate. Limited Liability You will not be subject to margin calls and cannot lose more than your original investment amount plus your share of distributed and undistributed profits; provided the below bulleted legal conditions are met. In the opinion of our legal counsel, there are no circumstances, including bankruptcy of this partnership, which will subject your personal assets to our debts, provided: * the Fund's structure is maintained by the general partner, and * no limited partner is affiliated with any phase of our management. See the Limited Partnership Agreement (Exhibit A). Administrative Convenience We are structured to provide you with services that alleviate the administrative details involved in trading commodities contracts directly, including: * providing monthly and annual financial reports showing, among other things: * the value of each unit of partnership interest * trading profits or losses, and * expenses; and * preparing all tax information relating to your investment in this partnership. Access To The Commodity Trading Advisor The commodity trading advisor selected by the general partner requires a minimum account size substantially greater than the $25,000 minimum investment required by us. For instance, Fall River currently requires a minimum investment of $2,000,000 to open an account, depending on the investment program. Accordingly, you have access to the trading advisor for a smaller investment than is available from the trading advisor. Use Of Proceeds The Fund will reimburse the general partner for $25,000 for offering expenses and $5,000 for organizational expenses at the break of escrow. After the break of escrow and the sale of additional partnership interests, the Fund will reimburse the general partner for all offering costs associated with the sale of additional units after the break of escrow. The offering costs are estimated to be $25,000 for each $2,000,000 in face value of units sold. At the end of each month, the management and continuing service fees identified under Charges to the Fund are paid by the Fund. Incentive fees are paid at the end of each quarter. Round-turn commissions are paid as each trade is entered. The general partner has sole authority to determine the percentage of our assets that will be: * held on deposit with the futures commission merchants * used for other investments, and * held in bank accounts to pay current obligations and as reserves. The general partner expects to deposit substantially all of our net assets with the futures commission merchants for trading by the trading advisor. However, approximately 3% of the previous month's net assets will be retained in our bank accounts to pay expenses and redemptions. We use only cash and cash equivalents, such as United States Treasury Bills, to satisfy margin requirements. All entities that will hold or trade our assets will be based in the United States and will be subject to United States regulations. The general partner believes that 10% to 30% of our assets will normally be committed as margin for commodity futures contracts. However, from time to time, the percentage of assets committed as margin may be substantially more, or less, than such range. All interest income is used for the Fund's benefit. To estimate interest income earned upon our deposits, the general partner has assumed that: * 10% and 30% of our net assets will be used for margin upon trades, and * we will receive 3% interest on our available balances. The futures commission merchants may increase margins applicable to us at any time. And, margin is merely a security deposit and has no bearing on the profit or loss potential for any positions taken. Determination Of The Offering Price The general partner initially established the number of units to be offered at ten million dollars ($10,000,000) with the minimum number that must be sold to break escrow and commence business at two million thirty thousand dollars ($2,030,000), and set the value of each unit of partnership interest for sale at one thousand dollars ($l,000). Upon the break of escrow and the commencement of trading, we will offer partnership interests at their net unit value, or the price per unit equal to our net assets, after payment and accrual for all expenses and reserves, divided by the number of outstanding units of partnership interests. This amount is calculated after the close of business on the last business day of the month in which the general partner accepts a duly executed subscription agreement and subscription amount from a future partner. Such future partner will be admitted as a partner on the open of business on the first day of business of the following month. The General Partner Identification Two general partners, White Oak Financial Services, Inc. and Mr. Michael Pacult, manage us.

Also, see Experts. You will not acquire or otherwise have any interest in White Oak, the corporate general partner, or any other entity other than Providence, by purchasing the partnership interests offered by this prospectus. Michael Pacult Mr. Pacult, age 59, is: * one of the general partners * the sole shareholder, director, principal, and officer of the corporate general partner, and * a principal, officer, director and 50% shareholder of Futures Investment Company, the principal selling agent. Mr. Pacult's wife, Shira is also a principal and holds the other 50% and sells various managed investment, including futures, products. Mr. Pacult grew up in Detroit, MI and went to high school at Howe Military School in Howe, IN. In 1969 he received a B.A. Degree from the University of California, Berkeley, where he majored in English and in Zoology. Prior to moving to Chicago in 1980 to become involved in the futures industry, he was a part owner and Senior Vice President of a California real estate development company. In 1983, Mr. Pacult and his wife established Futures Investment Company, an Illinois corporation, to sell futures investments managed by independent commodity trading advisors to retail clients. In 1995, Mr. and Mrs. Pacult were featured in a book titled Interviews with Top Futures Brokers by John Walsh that was published by the Center for Futures Education. Mr. Pacult is a principal, an affiliated person and registered representative of Futures Investment Company, now located at 5916 N. 300 West, P.O. Box C, Fremont, Indiana, 46737 an introducing broker and member of the National Futures Association (the "NFA") and a broker/dealer and member of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. (the "NASD"). In addition to the interests in this partnership offered pursuant to this prospectus, Futures Investment Company offers for sale, on a best efforts basis, the securities of other issuers and engages in other broker activities. Ownership In Commodity Trading Advisor And Futures Commission Merchants Neither Mr. Pacult, nor any of his affiliates, has any ownership in the commodity trading advisor or the futures commission merchants. Mrs. Shira Del Pacult, Mr. Pacult's wife, will have no ownership or role in the management of the Fund or White Oak Financial Services, Inc. However, she is a 50%owner and associated person, and officer in Futures Investment Company, an NASD broker dealer and NFA introducing broker in Mr. Pacult owns the other 50%. Mrs. Pacult as a representative of Futures Investment Company is expected to sell partnership interests in the Fund. Trading By The General Partner White Oak Financial Services, Inc. and Mr. Pacult, may, from time to time, trade commodity interests for their own accounts. The results and other records of any such trading activities will not be made available to you. As stated earlier, neither general partner will knowingly take positions on their behalf that would be ahead of or identical to the positions taken on behalf of the Fund. No Prior Performance of this Fund and Regulatory Notice We have not begun trading and do not have any performance history. However, Mr. Pacult has extensive experience in the futures industry and presently serves as the sole director and officer of the corporate general partner and as the individual general partner of two other publicly traded commodity pools. The regulations of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission and the National Futures Association prohibit any representation by a person registered with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission or by any member of the National Futures Association, respectively, that such registration or membership in any respect indicates that the Commodity Futures Trading Commission or the National Futures Association, as the case may be, has approved or endorsed such person or such person's trading programs or objectives. The registrations and memberships described in this prospectus must not be considered as constituting any such approval or endorsement. Likewise, no commodity or securities exchange, nor the Securities and Exchange Commission, nor any other regulatory agency has given or will give any such approval or endorsement. Trading Management No Affiliation With Commodity Trading Advisor The trading advisor is not affiliated with either general partner. Additionally, the general partner will not serve as a trading advisor or select any other trading advisors to trade that are affiliated with either general partner. See The Commodity Trading Advisor for a summary of the trading advisor's performance information. Rights of the General Partner With Respect To Commodity Trading Advisor Selection And Allocation Of Equity The general partner believes that a trading advisor should be retained on a medium to long-term basis and should be allowed to implement fully its trading strategy. However, the general partner may, in its sole discretion and without notice to you: * terminate any current or future trading advisor * select additional trading advisors, or * change the allocation of equity to any trading advisor. The general partner periodically reviews our performance to determine if a current trading advisor should be changed or if others should be added. In doing so, the general partner may use computer generated correlation analysis or other types of automated review procedures to evaluate trading advisors. If a trading advisor is replaced, the new trading advisor will receive incentive fees independent of the previous trading advisor's performance. As the general partner receives an incentive fee and may engage more than one trading advisor, the following may possibly occur: * we may pay an incentive fee to one trading advisor which is trading profitably while the other trading advisor produces losses which cause us to be unprofitable overall * the general partner may receive an incentive fee because the Fund is profitable overall, though one or more trading advisors are trading at a loss * as the trading advisors trade independently, they may compete for similar positions or take positions opposite each other, which may limit our profitability.

He is a registered Associated Person, effective January 5, 2000, and a founding principal of the advisor. The past performance record of the advisor and its principals is set forth below under Performance Record Of The Commodity Trading Advisor. The advisor and its principals may trade commodity interests for their own accounts, and the records of such trading, and any written policies relating to such trading, will not be made available to you for inspection. Description Of Trading Program The advisor's programs consist of a selection of a diversified portfolio of international commodity interests on major commodity and futures exchanges worldwide. The programs use computerized, technical systems that have been developed by the advisor. The goal of the advisor's programs is to provide superior risk-adjusted investment returns. The advisor's programs use various risk management techniques to reduce portfolio risk. These techniques include, but are not limited to: * market diversification (committing assets to multiple markets); * system diversification (trading with multiple trading strategies); and * a money management structure that determines and limits the amount of equity committed to each trade and each market. The advisor's programs trade in easily accessible and liquid U.S. and non- U.S. futures and forward contracts that are practicable. Forward markets may include major currencies and metals, which are currently being traded on the London Metal Exchange. In addition, the advisor continually monitors numerous markets, both U.S. and non-U.S., and will initiate trades at any point it determines that a market is sufficiently liquid and tradable. The advisor may also trade an account in physical commodities, including exchange of futures for physicals transactions, or EFP. An EFP is a transaction permitted under the rules of many futures exchanges in which two parties exchange a cash market position for a futures market position (or vice versa) without making an open, competitive trade on the exchange. The prices at which such transactions are executed are negotiated between the parties. The advisor estimates that generally, between 10% and 30% of an account's assets will be committed as original margin. However, these ratios are difficult to predict and may vary substantially from this range and be materially higher. Trading decisions require the exercise of judgment by the advisor. Therefore, the success of trading depends on the advisor's trading ability, knowledge and judgment. The advisor will exercise its judgment and discretion in interpreting the data generated by its trading methodology, and will make all decisions regarding the trading in the partnership's account, including selecting the markets which will be followed and actively traded. In addition, the advisor will determine the method by which orders are placed, the types of orders that are to be placed, the overall leverage for the portfolio, and, when applicable, the time at which orders are placed with, and executed by, a broker. The trading program to be followed by the advisor does not assure successful trading. Investment decisions made in accordance with the advisor's programs will be based on an assessment of available facts. However, because of the large quantity of facts at hand, the number of available facts that may be overlooked and the variables that may shift, any investment decision must, in the final analysis, be based on the judgment of the advisor. The advisor's business plan includes continued refinement and testing of its programs. Therefore, the advisor retains the right to revise any methods or strategy, including the technical trading factors used, the commodity interests traded and/or the money management principles applied. It will do this without your approval if it determines that the changes are in the best interest of your account. The advisor's programs are proprietary and confidential, and the descriptions herein are, of necessity, general and are not intended to be exhaustive. Consequently, you will not be able to determine the full details of the program, or whether the program is being followed. There can be no assurance that any trading strategy of the advisor will produce profitable results or will not result in losses.

The Futures Commission Merchants The general partner has selected two unaffiliated futures commission merchants, Citigroup Global Markets Inc. ("Citigroup"), a New York corporation with its principal place of business at 388 Greenwich St., New York, New York 10013 and Lawrence-Bonfitto Trading Company, an Illinois corporation with its principal place of business at 141 West Jackson Boulevard, Suite 2450, Chicago, Illinois 60604. They hold, supervise and control approximately 97% of all of our equity that is used for trading by the commodity trading advisor. Both Citigroup and Lawrence-Bonfitto are registered futures commission merchants pursuant to the Commodity Exchange Act and are members of the National Futures Association. As required by law, the general partner will provide notice to you within 21 days of any change in a futures commission merchant. At any given time, the futures commission merchants are involved in numerous legal actions and administrative proceedings, which in the aggregate, are not, as of the date of this prospectus, expected to have a material effect upon either of their condition, financial or otherwise, or the services they will render to the Fund. The futures commission merchants act only as clearing brokers for the Fund and, as such, are paid commissions for executing and clearing trades. They have not passed upon the adequacy or accuracy of this prospectus. The futures commission merchants will not act in any supervisory capacity with respect to the general partner nor participate in the management of the general partner or the Fund. Therefore, prospective investors should not rely on the futures commission merchants' agreements to clear trades for the Fund or for any other reason related to them in deciding whether or not to purchase interests in the Fund. Federal Income Tax Aspects Scope Of Tax Presentation This presentation is based on: * the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder which were in effect on June 30, 2003 and * the express intent of the general partner to: * operate the Fund as authorized and limited by the limited partnership agreement, and * cause us to invest only our equity capital and not to borrow money to operate the Fund , and * the belief by the general partner that no less than ninety percent of the income generated by us will be from interest income and the trade of commodities. Any change in the Internal Revenue Code or deviation from the above intentions could alter this presentation and also have adverse tax consequences on this partnership and you. For instance, if we were taxed as a corporation, we would pay tax and you would have to pay a second tax. In addition, if we were taxed as a corporation, none of the deductions for expenses would pass through to your tax return. If the IRS audits us, significant factual questions may arise which, if challenged by the IRS, might only be resolved at considerable legal and accounting expense to both you and us. Any adjustment made to our return will flow through to your return and could result in a separate audit of your individual return. We will report our income for tax and book purposes under the accrual method of accounting and our tax year will be the calendar year, or such other period as is required under section 706(b) of the Internal Revenue Code. During taxable years in which little or no profit is generated from trading activities, you may still have interest income that will be taxed to you as ordinary income. This discussion is not intended as a substitute for careful planning by you after you consider your tax circumstances; particularly, since the income tax consequences of an investment in the Fund will not be the same for all taxpayers. Accordingly, you are urged to consult your tax advisors with specific reference to your tax situation. All matters upon which we have obtained an opinion of tax counsel are discussed under the caption Tax Opinion below. Said opinion is based and conditioned upon factual representations made by the general partner on behalf of the Fund and assumptions that those facts will be applicable to the Fund continuously during its operation. No Legal Opinion As To Certain Material Tax Aspects We will not request a legal opinion in regard to any State income tax issue. In addition, our tax counsel cannot opine upon: * any matter that concerns the tax consequences of investment in the Fund by any partner, * any Federal income tax issue which involves a determination by the IRS of the facts related to our operation, or * any other matter which may be subject to IRS interpretation or adjustment upon audit. For an example of an item that could be subject to determination by the IRS, commodity trading advisor fees are aggregated with employee business expenses and other expenses of producing income, and the aggregate of such expenses is deductible only to the extent such amount exceeds 2% of the your adjusted gross income. The Federal income tax deductibility of these expenses depends upon factual determinations related to our operation by the general partner. Partnership Tax Status And Net Worth Of The General Partner The Internal Revenue Code, at Section 7701, and the regulations promulgated thereunder, provides the criteria used cannot be present if a partnership is to be taxed as a partnership and not as a corporation. A partnership must have two or more of the following characteristics: * decentralized management * unlimited liability of the partners * limited transferability of partnership interests, and * limited continuation of existence. The limited partnership agreement obligates the general partner to operate the Fund in a manner so that it will be taxed as a partnership and not as a corporation. If we were taxed as a corporation: * we would pay taxes at the corporate rates upon our income and gains * items of deduction and losses would be deductible only by us and not by you * tax credits would be available only to us and not to you, and * all or a part of any distributions we make to you could be taxable as dividend income and would not be deductible by us in computing our taxable income. This would substantially increase the total amount of taxes paid on your investment income and potentially limit your expense deductions. Historically, the right of redemption, similar to your right to redeem your partnership interests, renders a pool, such as ours, to be deemed a publicly traded partnership, taxed as a corporation. However, the Revenue Act of 1987 provides an exception. The exception requires 90% or more of our gross income to be derived from interest and the trade of commodities. If the principal activity of the Fund is buying and selling commodities, qualifying income includes interest, dividends, and income from futures, options or forward contracts on commodities. The general partner intends to limit the sources of income so that this exception will apply to us. In addition, the general partner has placed restrictions upon the right of redemption. See The Limited Partnership Agreement, Redemptions and Exhibit A, Right of Redemption. No IRS Ruling We have not applied for a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service regarding our status as a partnership or with regard to any other tax aspect, nor do we intend to seek a ruling. In the absence of a ruling, there can be no assurance that the IRS will not attempt to take a position adverse to the Fund. Tax Opinion Based upon opinion of counsel, the general partner believes, this prospectus accurately summarizes all material Federal tax matters related to the Fund. In the opinion of The Scott Law Firm, P.A., tax counsel to the Fund: * we will be treated as a partnership for Federal income tax purposes; * the allocations of profits and losses made when partners redeem their partnership interests should be upheld for Federal income tax purposes; * based upon our contemplated trading activities, the IRS should consider us as conducting a trade or business; and, as a result, the ordinary and necessary business expenses we incur while conducting our commodity futures trading business should not be subject to limitation under Section 67 or Section 68 of the Internal Revenue Code; * the profit share should be respected as a distributive share of our income allocable to Providence Select Fund, Limited Partnership; and * the contracts we trade, as described in this prospectus, should satisfy the commodities trading safe harbor as described in section 864(b) of the Internal Revenue Code. Such opinion is based on the Internal Revenue Code as of June 30, 2003 and a review of the Limited Partnership Agreement, and is conditioned upon the following representations of facts by the general partner: * at all times, we will be operated in accordance with the Delaware Uniform Limited Partnership Act and the Limited Partnership Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit A * for our first two years of operation, the aggregate deductions claimed by the partners as their distributive shares of our net losses will not exceed the equity capital invested in the Fund * no creditor who makes us a loan, including margin accounts, will have or acquire, as a result of making the loan, any direct or indirect interest in our capital, profits or property, other than as a secured creditor * the general partner will at all times actively direct the affairs of the Fund * the general partner: * will possess substantial assets, exclusive of its interest in us or any other limited partnership, which can be reached by our general creditors within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 301.7701 2(d)(2) or * will otherwise comply with the tax code general partner requirements imposed upon sole corporate general partners of limited partnerships * interests in the Fund: * will be transferable only upon approval of the general partner * will not be traded on an established securities market, and * will not be readily tradable on a secondary market or the substantial equivalent thereof * we will not be registered under the Investment Advisor's Act of 1940; and * over 90% of our earned income will be qualifying income as that term is defined in the IRS Act of 1987. The Scott Law Firm, P.A. is not able to opine upon * the tax treatment of certain expenses because deductibility depends upon questions of fact to be resolved by the general partner on our behalf, or * the likelihood that decisions made by the general partner will be changed as a result of IRS audit. In addition, commodity trading advisor fees are aggregated with employee business expenses and other expenses of producing income, and the aggregate of such expenses is deductible only to the extent such amount exceeds 2% of your adjusted gross income. It is the general partner's position that our intended operations will qualify as a trade or business. If this position is sustained, the brokerage commissions and performance fees will be deductible as ordinary and necessary business expenses. Syndication costs to organize the Fund and certain offering expenses will not be deductible or amortizable by you or us. Any change in these representations or the operative facts will prevent you and us from relying upon the legal opinion from The Scott Law Firm, P.A. Passive Loss And Unrelated Business Income Taxes Rules In addition to the imposition of a corporate level tax on publicly traded partnerships, special rules apply to partnerships in regard to the application of the passive loss and unrelated business income tax rules. In Notice 88-75 issued on June 17, 1988, the IRS provided guidance as to partnership operation. The general partner intends to use its best efforts to cause us to comply with the applicable provisions of these guidelines. In the event our expenses were deemed not to qualify as deductions from trading profits, your total taxes would increase while your distributions would remain the same. Basis Loss Limitation Generally, the basis of your interest in the Fund for tax purposes is equal to the cost * decreased, but not below zero, by your share of any partnership losses and distributions, and * increased by your share of any partnership income. You may not deduct losses in excess of the adjusted basis for your interest in the Fund at the end of the Fund year in which such losses occurred. However, you may carry forward any excess to such time, if ever, as the basis for the interest in the Fund is sufficient to absorb the loss. Upon the sale or liquidation of your interest in the Fund, you will recognize a gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes equal to the difference between the amount you realize in the transaction and the basis for your interest in the Fund at the time of such sale. For individuals, capital losses would offset capital gains on a dollar for dollar basis, with any excess capital losses subject to a $3,000 annual limitation. Accordingly, it is possible for you to sustain a loss from our operation that will not be allowed as a deduction for tax purposes or will be limited to a $3,000 annual limitation. At-Risk Limitation If you borrow money to invest in the Fund, there are at risk limitations that will apply to you. Section 465 of the Internal Revenue Code provides that the amount of any loss allowable for any year to be included in your personal tax return is limited to the amount paid for the partnership interests, or tax basis, of the amount at risk. Losses already claimed may be subject to recapture if the amount at risk is reduced as a result of: * cash distributions from the activity * deduction of losses from the activity * changes in the status of indebtedness from recourse to non-recourse * the commencement of a guarantee, or * other events that affect your risk of loss. You should consider the at risk provisions in arranging debt financing for purchasing a partnership interest. Income And Losses From Passive Activities Internal Revenue Code Section 469 limits the deductibility of what are called passive losses from business activities in which the taxpayer does not materially participate. Under temporary Treasury regulations, * the trading of personal property, such as futures contracts, will not be treated as a passive activity, * partnership gains allocable to you will not be available to offset passive losses from sources outside the Fund, and * partnership losses will not be subject to limitation under the passive loss rules. Allocation Of Profits And Losses The allocation of profits, losses, deductions and credits contained in the Limited Partnership Agreement will be recognized for tax purposes only if the allocations have substantial economic effect. While the general partner believes that the Limited Partnership Agreement either meets the requirements or satisfies a substitute capital account equivalency test, the Limited Partnership Agreement does not meet a third requirement, that a partner must make a capital contribution to the Fund equal to any deficit in its capital account. Accordingly, under the regulations and the Limited Partnership Agreement, losses would not be allocable to you in excess of your capital contribution plus properly allocated profits less any prior distributions. The general partner intends to allocate income and losses in accordance with the Limited Partnership Agreement that it believes complies with applicable Internal Revenue Code Section 704. However, no assurances can be given that the IRS will not attempt to change any allocation that is made among partners admitted on different dates, which could adversely affect the amount of taxable income to one partner as opposed to another partner. Taxation Of Futures And Forward Transactions The commodity trading advisors selected to trade for us are expected to trade primarily in contracts that are treated under Section 1256 of the Code. 1256 Contracts are any: * regulated futures contract * foreign currency contract * non-equity option, or * dealer equity option. A regulated futures contract is a futures contract: * if it is traded on or subject to the rules of: * a national securities exchange which is registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission, * a domestic board of trade designated as a contract market by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission or any other board of trade, exchange or other market designated by the Secretary of Treasury, and * which is marked-to-market to determine the amount of margin that must be deposited or may be withdrawn. Marked-to-market means that the position is taken in the account on day one at that price. Each day the position is held, it is valued for account purposes at the price of the contract on the close of that day. A foreign currency contract is negotiated between banks and accepted for trade among banks and private investors. The Fund is expected to purchase or sell these contracts to speculate on the value of foreign currency as contrasted with the U. S. dollar. These contracts are exempt from the Commodity Exchange Act and are excluded from marked-to-market treatment. A non-equity option means an option which is treated on a qualified board or exchange and the value of which is not determined directly or indirectly by reference to any stock, group of stocks, or stock index unless there is in effect a designation by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission of a contract market for a contract bond or such group of stocks or stock index. A dealer equity option means, with respect to an options dealer, only a listed option which is an equity option, is purchased or granted by such options dealer in the normal course of his activity of dealing in options, and is listed on the qualified board or exchange on which such options dealer is registered. All Section 1256 contracts will be marked-to-market upon the closing of every contract, including closing by taking an offsetting position or by making or taking delivery, by exercise or being exercised, by assignment or being assigned; or by lapse or otherwise. Also, all open Section 1256 contracts held by us at our fiscal year-end will be treated as sold for their fair market value on the last business day of such taxable year. This will result in all unrealized gains and losses being recognized for Federal income tax purposes for the taxable year. As a consequence, you may have tax liability relating to unrealized partnership profits in open positions at year-end. Sixty percent of any gain or loss from a Section 1256 contract will be treated as long-term capital gain or loss, and 40% as short-term capital gain or loss, regardless of the actual holding period of the individual contracts. The character of a your distributive share of profits or losses of the Fund from Section 1256 contracts will thus be 60% long-term capital gain or loss and 40% short-term capital gain or loss. Long-term capital gains are taxed at a maximum rate of fifteen percent (15%) for most gains in taxable years beginning on or before December 31, 2008. Short-term capital gains are taxed as the same rates as ordinary income. An individual taxpayer can carry back net capital losses on Section 1256 Contracts three years to offset earlier gains on Section 1256 Contracts. Section 1256 losses not recovered by carry back may be carried forward until they are fully deducted from Section 1256 gains. Income on Non-Section 1256 Contracts is generally taxed at ordinary income rates. Your distributive share of such gain or loss for a taxable year will be combined with your other items of capital gain or loss for such year in computing your Federal income tax liability. Section 988 Foreign Currency Transactions A Section 988 transaction is defined as the entering or acquiring of any forward contract, futures contract, option or similar financial instrument if the amount to be received or to be paid by reason of a transaction is denominated in a nonfunctional currency or is determined by reference to one or more nonfunctional currencies. If the Section 988 transaction results in a gain or loss, it is considered to be a foreign currency gain or loss to the extent it does not exceed gain or loss realized by reason of changes in exchange rates. Capital Gain And Loss Provisions If long-term capital gains exceed short-term capital losses, the net capital gain will be taxed at the same rates as ordinary income. Subject to an annual limitation of $3,000, you may deduct the excess of capital losses over capital gains against ordinary income. Excess capital losses that are not used to reduce ordinary income in a particular taxable year may be carried forward to, and treated as capital losses incurred in, future years. Business For Profit Internal Revenue Code Section 183 sets forth the general rule that no deduction is allowable to an individual for an activity not engaged in for profit. These are activities other than those constituting a trade or business or engaged in for the production or collection of income or for the management, conservation, or maintenance of property held for the production of income. The determination of whether an activity is engaged in for profit is based on all facts and circumstances, and no single factor is determinative. The general partner believes that by employing independent commodity trading advisors with strong track records of production of profits, it is more likely than not, that our activity will be considered an activity engaged for profit. Self-Employment Income And Tax Section 1402 of the Internal Revenue Code provides that an individual's net earnings from self-employment shall not include the distributive share of income or loss from any trade or business carried on by a partnership of which he is a limited partner. Therefore, you should not consider that the ordinary income from the Fund constitutes net earnings from self-employment for purposes of either the Social Security Act or the Internal Revenue Code. Interest Related To Tax Exempt Obligations Section 265(a)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code will disallow any deduction for interest on indebtedness of a taxpayer incurred or continued to purchase or carry obligations the interest on which is wholly exempt from tax. The IRS announced in Revenue Procedure 72-18 that the proscribed purpose would be deemed to exist with respect to indebtedness incurred to finance a portfolio investment. The Revenue Procedure further states that a limited partnership interest will be regarded as a portfolio investment, unless rebutted by other evidence. Therefore, if you own tax-exempt obligations, the IRS might take the position that any interest expense incurred by you to purchase or carry partnership interests should be viewed as incurred by you to continue carrying tax exempt obligations, and that you should not be allowed to deduct all or a portion of the interest on any such loans. Not A Tax Shelter In the opinion of tax counsel, we do not constitute a tax shelter, as defined in Internal Revenue Code Section 6111(c), since the general partner intends to operate the Fund so that the tax shelter ratio will not exceed two-to-one at the close of any of the first five years. Accordingly, the general partner does not plan to register us as a tax shelter with the IRS. Taxation Of Foreign Partners An investment in the Fund should not, by itself, cause a foreign partner to be engaged in a trade or business within the United States. A foreign person is subject to a 30% withholding tax, unless reduced or exempted by treaty, on United States source income that is not effectively connected with the conduct of a United States trade or business. The person having control over the payment of such income must withhold this tax. Accordingly, we may be required to withhold tax on items of such income that are included in the distributive share of a foreign partner, whether or not the income was actually distributed. If we are required to withhold tax on such income of a foreign partner, the general partner may pay such tax out of the redemption of partnership interests by the foreign partner. Partnership Entity-Audit Provisions-Penalties The Internal Revenue Code provides that the tax treatment of items of partnership income, gain, loss, deduction and credit will be determined at the Fund level in a single partnership proceeding. The Limited Partnership Agreement has appointed White Oak Financial Services, Inc. as the tax matters partner to settle any issue involving any partner with less than a 1% profits interest unless such a partner, upon notice, properly elects not to give such authority to the tax matters partner. The tax matters partner may seek judicial review for any adjustment to partnership income, but there will be only one such action for judicial review to which all partners will be bound. The Internal Revenue Code provides that a partner must report a partnership item consistently with its treatment on the Fund return, unless the partner specifically identifies the inconsistency or can show that its treatment of the Fund item on its return is consistent with a schedule furnished to the partner by the Fund. Failure to comply with this requirement may result in penalties for underpayment of tax and could result in an extended statute of limitations. The statute of limitations for adjustment of tax with respect to partnership items will generally be three years from the date of filing the Fund return. Internal Revenue Code Section 6662 imposes a penalty for a substantial understatement of income tax equal to 20% of the amount of any underpayment attributable to that understatement. Understatement is defined as meaning the excess of the correct amount of tax required to be shown on the return over the amount of tax that is actually shown on the return. A substantial understatement exists for any taxable year if the amount of the understatement for the taxable year exceeds the greater of: * 10% of the correct tax, or * $5,000, or $10,000, in the case of a corporation other than an S corporation or a personal holding company. Employee Benefit, Retirement Plans And IRA's The Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 governs: * employee benefit plans, such as: * a qualified pension, profit-sharing or stock bonus plan, or * a qualified health and welfare plan; and * individual retirement accounts, commonly called IRAs. You may not purchase limited partnership interests with the assets of a plan if we, the general partner, the selling agent, a futures commission merchant, or any of their affiliates, agents or employees: * has investment discretion over such plan, * gives investment advice with respect to such plan assets, for a fee, or * is an employer maintaining or contributing to such plan. Before you invest in us through one of these qualified plans, you should consult your own legal and financial advisors, and the fiduciary of your plan should take into account the facts and circumstances of your plan, and consider applicable fiduciary standards under the above act. Acceptance of subscriptions on behalf of employee benefit plans is not a representation by the general partner or any other party that this investment meets all legal requirements or is appropriate with respect to investments by any particular plan. The person with investment discretion should consult the attorney for the plan as to the propriety of an investment in this partnership. The Limited Partnership Agreement This prospectus explains all material terms of the Limited Partnership Agreement; however, you are urged to read the entire agreement. See Exhibit A. Formation Of The Fund Our Certificate of Limited Partnership is dated and was filed on May 16, 2003 pursuant to the Delaware Uniform Limited Partnership Act. You are not liable for our losses, debts and obligations beyond your investment amount and your share of any of our undistributed assets, so long as you do not take part in the management of the business of the Fund or transact any business for the Fund. According to the Limited Partnership Agreement, this partnership will not terminate or dissolve upon any limited partner's death, incompetence, withdrawal, insolvency, bankruptcy, termination, liquidation, dissolution or other legal incapacity. Also, the limited partnership agreement allows successor representatives of such limited partner to redeem their partnership interests, but third party creditors and trustees may not anticipate distributions or seek redemption without permission of both the successor representative and the general partner. Units of Partnership Interests The amount of partnership interests you hold will determine your percentage interest in our net assets. The percentage interest will be calculated from time to time by dividing the number of units of partnership interests you hold by the aggregate number of outstanding units of partnership interests. Management Of Partnership Affairs Only the general partner may manage this partnership. All of the decisions will be in the sole judgment of the general partner without any obligation to provide you with advance notice of the decisions to be made. You will not take part in the business or affairs of the Fund nor will you have any voice in its or the general partner's management or operations. You and the other limited partners have a right to vote and a majority of those partners who hold outstanding partnership interests must give prior written approval of any material change in either the Limited Partnership Agreement or the Fund structure. Without the limited partners' approval, the general partner may: * change or add or delete trading advisors, * change or add or delete futures commission merchants, * redeem and return a limited partner account * change the commodity contracts traded, * change the diversification of our assets among the various types of or in the positions held in commodity markets, or * change or add legal counsel, experts, and tax partner to the Fund. To the extent the law permits, such limited partners who hold a majority of the partnership interests may vote to amend any term in the Limited Partnership Agreement and, if necessary, the Certificate of Limited Partnership without the agreement of the general partner. This includes removing the general partner and electing a new general partner. The general partner may not make trades on our behalf. Trading must be done by one or more independent commodity trading advisors selected by the general partner. General Prohibitions Except for the security posted for commodity trades made in the Fund accounts on normal margin terms with the clearing broker, we may not borrow from or loan money or any other assets to any person. However, this shall not apply to the incurrence of debt to a partner or an affiliate with respect to: * the offering of partnership interests for sale * registration, or * initiation and maintenance of our trading positions. We may not permit rebates or give-ups to be received by the general partner or any of its affiliates. Nor may we permit the general partner or any of its affiliates to engage in reciprocal business arrangements that would circumvent the foregoing prohibition. However, an affiliate or the general partner may provide goods or services, including brokerage, at a competitive cost to us. The general partner or its affiliates are not required to advance or loan funds to the Fund. If the general partner makes any advance or loan to the Fund, it will not receive interest in excess of its interest costs, nor will it receive interest in excess of the amounts that would be charged the Fund by unrelated banks on comparable loans for the same purpose. The general partner shall not receive points or other financing charges or fees regardless of the amount. Additional Offerings The general partner has sole discretion to: * end this or any future offering of partnership interests * register additional partnership interests, and * make additional public or private offerings of partnership interests. You will not have any preemptive, preferential or other rights with respect to the issuance or sale of any additional partnership interests. We have not limited the amount of capital contributions or the maximum amount of partnership interests that may be issued, offered or sold. Partnership Accounting, Reports, And Distributions You will have a capital account, and its initial balance will be the amount you paid for your partnership interests. The net assets of this partnership will be determined monthly, and any change from the previous month will be passed on to your account in the ratio that your account bears to all accounts. The general partner has sole discretion to make distributions from profits or net assets. On a monthly basis you will receive a report containing: * the net unit value as of the end of both the current and previous month * the percentage change in net unit value between the two months * the amount of distributions during the month, and * any other information required by the rules of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission. You or your duly authorized representative may inspect our books and records and any records related to your account, provided: * you give adequate notice * you do so at a reasonable time, and * you make copies at your expense. Federal Tax Allocations At the end of each fiscal year the Fund under the supervision of the general partner and the financial experts selected, will allocate our capital gain or loss and ordinary income or loss, fees and expenses among the partners in accordance with the relationship of each Capital account to all Capital accounts. You must include your share of such items in your personal income tax return. Transfer Of Partnership Interests Only With Consent Of The General Partner Once admitted to this partnership and registered on the Fund records as the owner of partnership interests, you may: * receive all distributions, allocations of losses and withdrawals, and reductions of capital contributions, and * vote on any matters submitted to the limited partners for voting, and * exercise all rights granted to limited partners pursuant to the partnership agreement and pursuant to Delaware law. You may transfer your partnership interests only with the written consent of the general partner. The general partner may not approve the transfer if it: * is requested before one year from the date of purchase * is not made for all of your partnership interests or, if you are not assigning all of your partnership interests, you will not retain more than five units of partnership interests * will violate any applicable laws or governmental rules or regulations, including without limitation: * any applicable Federal or state securities laws, or * the Delaware limited partnership laws * will jeopardize our ability to be taxed as a partnership and not as a corporation, or * will affect characterizations or treatment of income or loss. Termination Of The Fund This partnership will terminate: * at 11:59 p.m. twenty-one years from the date of the Limited Partnership Agreement * by election of the general partner, in its sole discretion, to terminate and dissolve this partnership * upon the dissolution, death, resignation, withdrawal, bankruptcy or insolvency of the general partner, unless the limited partners unanimously elect to carry on the business and a new general partner has been substituted * if it does not pay its annual franchise fee and file its annual report with the State of Delaware, which will cause it to be dissolved under Delaware law * upon any event which makes the continued existence of the Fund unlawful, or * upon the unanimous vote of the Limited Partners. Meetings We are not required to hold regular meetings, however, partners may call meetings to vote on certain issues, including: * amendment of the limited partnership agreement; provided, however, any amendment which modifies the compensation or distributions to the general partner or which affects the duties of the general partner requires its consent * removal of the general partner and election of a new general partner * cancellation of any contract for services with the general partner, without penalty, upon 60 days written notice; provided, however, the maximum period of any contract between the general partner and the Fund is one year; and, provided further, should any amendment to this partnership agreement attempt to modify the compensation or distributions to which the general partner is entitled or which affects the duties of the general partner, such amendment will become effective only upon the consent of the general partner. * the right to approve, prior to sale, the sale or distribution, outside the ordinary course of business, of all or substantially all of the assets of the Fund. * dissolution of the Fund. * change of any of the Fund's basic investment policies or in the structure of the Fund. See Management of Partnership Affairs. The general partner must receive in person or by certified mail a written request with a check to cover the cost of sending notice of the meeting to all partners. One or more partners who collectively own 10% or more of the outstanding partnership interests must sign the written request. The general partner then has 15 days to call the meeting Redemptions Redemption allows you to receive your share of the net assets of this partnership. You may not redeem or liquidate any partnership interests until one year after you have been allocated partnerships interests from your subscription proceeds. The general partner must receive written request, in form acceptable to it, no less than ten days prior to the last day immediately preceding the desired effective date of redemption. The effective date of redemption must be the last day of the then current or a future month. The general partner will try its best to comply with the redemption request within twenty days following the effective date. However, you should be aware that the general partner may be unable to timely comply with the request if there is not enough cash. This may be because the trading advisor cannot liquidate the positions it has taken, or because there are contingent claims on partnership assets. If the general partner notifies you in writing, it may declare additional redemption dates or cause the Fund to redeem fractions of units of partnership interests. If the general partner notifies you in writing prior to registering partnership interests for public sale, it may redeem your partnership interests if you don't hold the required minimum amount of partnership interests which it has established. You will not be charged a redemption fee. Plan For Sale Of Partnership Interests The Selling Agent We are offering and selling the partnership interests through Futures Investment Company, an Illinois corporation incorporated on December 6, 1983, its address is 5916 N. 300 West, P.O. Box C, Fremont, Indiana 46737. It is a broker/dealer registered with the National Association of Securities Dealers and has been appointed the principal selling agent. It may, with the consent of the general partner, also select other broker dealers and introducing brokers to sell partnership interests. All partnership interests will be sold on a best efforts basis, which means the selling agents will try, but not guarantee, to sell the partnership interests. Futures Investment Company was registered as an introducing broker with the National Futures Association on February 3, 1987 and as a fully disclosed broker dealer with the National Association of Securities Dealers on July 24, 1997. Currently, Futures Investment Company principally offers securities and interests in futures. It has and will continue to participate in offerings of other commodity pools sponsored by the general partner or other persons or entities in competition with us. Mr. Michael Pacult and his wife, Mrs. Pacult, own Futures Investment Company. Mr. and Mrs. Pacult are also registered with the National Futures Association as associated persons and with the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. as registered representatives of Futures Investment Company. In those capacities, they earn commissions and continuing service fees on the partnership interests they sell and service. Although we are offering a maximum of $10,000,000 in partnership interests, the Limited Partnership Agreement authorizes the general partner to determine the amount of partnership interests to be sold. Accordingly, the Fund may sell an unlimited amount of partnership interests. Escrow All subscriptions accepted by the general partner will be placed in an account maintained at Star Financial Bank, Angola, IN until the minimum, $2,030,000 in face amount of Units are sold. If the minimum is sold, the account will be delivered to the Fund. Interest accrued on your subscription amount will be used to buy additional partnership interests for you. If the minimum is not sold after fifteen months from the date of this prospectus, the general partner has directed the bank to directly return your original subscription amount, plus accrued interest, without deduction for any expenses and fees. After the sale of the minimum, this offering will continue until the maximum of $10,000,000 in face amount of Units is sold. The general partner may terminate this offering at any time. After the sale of the minimum, new partners will be admitted to the Fund on the first business day of the month following the month in which their subscription documents were accepted. Until they are admitted to the Fund and assigned partnership interests, all cash and subscription documents will be held in a segregated escrow account. No escrow funds will be available to pay debts or claims of the partnership or the general partner. Cash from subscriptions held in the escrow account will be invested in short- term investments that meet applicable regulatory requirements. These include United States Treasury Bills or other comparable interest-bearing instruments that are expected to be liquid, substantially risk-less instruments, with correspondingly low yields. There cannot be any assurance that the minimum partnership interests will be sold. The general partner is authorized, in its sole discretion, to terminate this or any future offering of partnership interests without notice. Subscription Procedure To purchase partnership interests, you must: * complete and execute a suitability questionnaire and a subscription agreement (Exhibit D), and * deliver the executed subscription documents and check to the sales agent. You should make out the check to "Escrow Account-Providence". Your check will then be deposited to the escrow account within 24 hours of receipt. Under no circumstances should you: * make payment in cash, or * make any checks payable to the Fund, the general partner the selling agent or any of their registered representatives or affiliates. Subscription Amounts You must purchase at least $25,000 in partnership interests; however, the general partner may reduce this to not less than the regulatory minimum of $5,000. You may make additional investments above $25,000 in $1,000 increments, but you may not invest more than 10% of your net worth in the Fund. If you have not provided collectible funds, whether in the form of a bad check or draft, or otherwise, any partnership interests recorded in our books in your favor shall be cancelled. Revocation and Acceptance of Subscription Once you have purchased partnership interests, you may revoke your subscription within five business days after you send it to us, or longer, if there are Federal or state securities laws which allow you to do so. After the lapse of five business days from submission, your subscription will be irrevocable and, thereafter, you must redeem pursuant to the terms of the Limited Partnership Agreement. The partnership interests offered to you are subject to prior sale. The general partner has sole discretion to reject any subscription, in whole or in part, within five days. If your subscription is accepted, the general partner will admit you as a partner and send you written confirmation to disclose the number of units purchased within 20 days of the close of business for the month in which you were admitted as a limited partner. Investor Suitability You should only invest a limited amount of the risk portion of your total portfolio and should not invest more than you can afford to lose. To invest the minimum $25,000 in this partnership, you must have either: * a minimum net worth, exclusive of your home, home furnishings and automobiles, of $150,000, or * a minimum annual gross income of $45,000 and a minimum net worth of $45,000, both exclusive of your home, home furnishings and automobiles. The State where you live may impose a higher net worth and income requirement. See Suitability Requirements and Exhibit C to this prospectus. These suitability standards are, in each case, regulatory minimums only, and merely because you meet such standards do not mean that an investment in the units is suitable for you. You may not invest more than 10% of your net worth, exclusive of home, furnishings and automobiles, in the Fund. In the case of sales to fiduciary accounts, the net worth and income standards may be met by the beneficiary, the fiduciary account, or, if the donor or grantor is the fiduciary, by the donor or grantor who supplies the funds to purchase the partnership interests. Investor Warranties When you execute and deliver your Subscription Agreement and Power of Attorney, you are making representations and warranties to the general partner, the futures commission merchants and the selling agent. See Exhibit C. Legal Matters Litigation And Claims Within the past 5 years of the date of this prospectus, there have been no material administrative, civil or criminal actions against either general partner, the commodity trading advisors, Lawrence-Bonfitto, one of the futures commission merchants, the selling agent, or any principal or affiliate of any of them. This includes any actions pending, on appeal, concluded, threatened, or otherwise known to them. One of the futures commission merchants, Citigroup Global Markets, Inc., does have litigation that must be reported that is unrelated and not deemed by the general partner to be material to the partnership as follows: Neither Citigroup Global Markets, Inc. or any of its principals have been the subject of any administrative, civil, or criminal action, whether pending, on appeal, or concluded, within the preceding five years that Citigroup would deem material for purposes of Part 4 of the Regulations of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, or the Commission or its staff, except: In the ordinary course of its business, Citigroup is a party to various claims and regulatory inquiries. Both the Department of Labor and the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") have advised Citigroup that they were or are reviewing transactions in which Ameritech Pension Trust purchased from Citigroup and certain affiliates approximately $20.9 million in participations in a portfolio of motels owned by Motels of America, Inc. and Best Inns, Inc. With respect to the IRS review, Citigroup and certain affiliated entities have consented to extensions of time for the assessment of excise taxes that may be claimed to be due with respect to the transactions for the years 1987, 1988 and 1989. In December 1998, Citigroup was one of twenty-eight market-making firms that reached a settlement with the US Securities and Exchange Commission In the Matter of Certain Market Making Activities on NASDAQ. Citigroup without admitting or denying the factual allegations, agreed to an order that required that it: (i) cease and desist from committing or causing any violations of Sections 15(c)(1) and (2) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rules 15c1-2, 15c2-7 and 17a-3 thereunder, (ii) pay penalties totaling approximately $760,000, and (iii) submit certain policies and procedures to an independent consultant for review. In April 2000, CGM and several other broker-dealers entered into a settlement with the IRS and the US Securities and Exchange Commission concluding an industry-wide investigation into the pricing of Treasury securities in advanced refunding transactions. Beginning in April 2002, Citigroup and several other broker dealers received subpoenas and/or requests for information from various governmental and self- regulatory agencies and Congressional committees as part of their research, initial public offerings allocation and spinning-related inquiries. With respect to issues raised by the US Securities and Exchange Commission, the National Association of Securities Dealers and the New York Stock Exchange about Citigroup's and the other firms' e-mail retention practices, Citigroup and several other broker/dealers and the above regulatory agencies entered into a settlement agreement in December 2002. Salomon Smith Barney Inc. (now Citigroup) agreed to pay a penalty in the amount of $1.65 million but did not admit to any allegations of wrongdoing. On April 28, 2003, Citigroup announced final agreements with the US Securities and Exchange Commission, the National Association of Securities Dealers, the New York Stock Exchange and the New York Attorney General (as lead state among the 50 states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico) to resolve on a civil basis all of their outstanding investigations into its research and Initial Public Offering allocation and distribution practices (the "Research Settlement"). As part of the Research Settlement, Citigroup has consented to the entry of (1) an injunction under the Federal securities laws to be entered in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, barring Solomon Smith Barney (now Citigroup) from violating provisions of the Federal securities laws and related National Association of Securities Dealers and New York Stock Exchange rules relating to research, certain Initial Public Offering allocation practices, the safeguarding of material nonpublic information, and the maintenance of required books and records and requiring Citigroup to adopt and enforce new restrictions on the operation of research; (2) an National Association of Securities Dealers Acceptance Waiver and Consent requiring Citigroup to cease and desist from violations of corresponding National Association of Securities Dealer rules and requiring Citigroup to adopt and enforce the same new restrictions; (3) an New York Stock Exchange Stipulation and Consent requiring Citigroup to cease and desist from violations of corresponding New York Stock Exchange rules and requiring Citigroup to adopt and enforce the same new restrictions; and (4) an Assurance of Discontinuance with the New York Attorney General containing substantially the same or similar restrictions. As required by the Research Settlement, Citigroup expects to enter into related settlements with each of the other states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico. Consistent with the settlement-in-principle announced in December 2002, the Research Settlement requires Citigroup to pay $300 million for retrospective relief, plus $25 million for investor education, and commit to spend $75 million to provide independent third-party research to its clients at no charge. Citigroup reached these final settlement agreements without admitting or denying any wrongdoing or liability. The Research Settlement does not establish wrongdoing or liability for purposes of any other proceeding. The $300 million was accrued during the 2002 fourth quarter. To effectuate the Research Settlement, the US Securities and Exchange Commission filed a Complaint and Final Judgment in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. The Court has not yet entered the Final Judgment and the Court has asked for certain additional information. The National Association of Securities Dealers has accepted the Letter of Acceptance, Waiver and Consent entered into with Citigroup in connection with the Research Settlement, and in May 2003, the New York Stock Exchange advised Citigroup that the Hearing Panel's Decision, in which it accepts the Research Settlement, has become final. Citigroup is currently in discussions with various states with respect to completion of the state components of the Research Settlement. Payment will be made in conformance with the payment provision of the Final Judgment to be entered by the Court. In May 2003, the US Securities and Exchange Commission, New York Stock Exchange and National Association of Securities Dealers issued subpoenas and letters to Citigroup requesting documents and information with respect to their continuing investigation of individuals in connection with the supervision of the research and investment banking department of Citigroup. On June 23, 2003, the West Virginia Attorney General filed an action against Citigroup and nine other firms that were parties to the Research Settlement.

The Corporate General Partner has contributed $1,000 in cash for deposit to the capital of the Fund for a non-trading General Partnership interest in the Partnership. The Corporate General Partner and all other general partners combined contribution to the General Partnership account in the Fund will, at all times, be equal to or greater than one percent (1%) of all capital contributions, including the General Partnership accounts, to the Fund or at such other level as may be required by law. If the net unit value of the partnership falls to less than 50% of the greater of the original $1,000 selling price, less commissions and other charges or such higher value earned through trading, then the General Partner will immediately suspend all trading, provide all limited partners with notice of the reduction and give all limited partners the opportunity, for fifteen days after such notice, to redeem partnership interests. 4.

Monthly Allocations - Any increase or decrease in the Partnership's net asset value as of the end of a month shall be credited or charged to the capital account of each Partner in the ratio that the balance of each account bears to the total balance of all accounts. Any distribution from profits or partners' capital will be made solely at the discretion of the General Partner. PROVIDENCE SELECT FUND, LIMITED PARTNERSHIP (A Development Stage Enterprise) NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JULY 3, 2003 4. THE LIMITED PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT - CONTINUED Allocation of Profit and Loss for Federal Income Tax Purposes - As of the end of each fiscal year, the Partnership's realized capital gain or loss and ordinary income or loss shall be allocated among the Partners, after having given effect to the fees of the General Partner and the Commodity Trading Advisors and each Partner's share of such items are includable in the Partner's personal income tax return. Redemption - No partner may redeem or liquidate any units until after the lapse of six months from the date of the investment. Thereafter, a Limited Partner may withdraw, subject to certain restrictions, any part or all of his units from the partnership at the net asset value per unit on the last day of any month on ten days prior written request to the General Partner. A redemption fee payable to the partnership of 4% of the value of the redemption request is charged during the first six months after commencement of trading. Thereafter, there will be a reduction of 1% for each six months the units remain invested in the Fund. After twenty-four months, there is no redemption fee. 5. FEES The Fund will be charged the following fees on a monthly basis as of the commencement of trading. A management fee of 6% (annual rate) of the Fund's net assets allocated to each CTA to trade will be paid to each CTA and 6% of the Fund's net assets allocated to all CTA's will be paid to the Fund's Corporate General Partner. An incentive fee of 15% of "new trading profits" will be paid to each CTA. "New trading profits" includes all income earned by a CTA and expense allocated to his activity. In the event that trading produces a loss, no incentive fees will be paid and all losses will be carried over to the following months until profits from trading exceed the loss. It is possible for one CTA to be paid an incentive fee during a quarter or a year when the Fund experienced a loss. The Fund will pay fixed and/or round turn commissions provided they are reasonable and comparable to commissions paid by other partnerships similarly situated for similar services. Brokerage commissions will be presumed to be reasonable if they are either eighty percent (80%) of the published retail rate plus Pit brokerage fees or fourteen percent(14%) including Pit brokerage fees of the average net assets of the Partnership, payable monthly, to the introducing broker affiliated with the General Partner. The General Partner has reserved the right to change the management fee and the incentive fee at its sole discretion.

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Corporate GP may amend this Agreement without any vote, consent, approval, authorization or other action of any other Partner and without notice to any other Partner to: (a) add to the representations, duties or obligations of the Corporate GP or its Affiliates or any Additional GP or surrender any right or power granted to the Corporate GP or its Affiliates or any Additional GP in this LP Agreement for the benefit of the Limited Partners; (b) cure any ambiguity, correct or supplement any provision in this Agreement which may be inconsistent with any other provision in this Agreement, or make any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under this LP Agreement which will not be inconsistent with the intent of this LP Agreement; (c) delete or add any provision of this LP Agreement required to be so deleted or added by the staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission, or by a state securities law administrator or similar such official, which addition or deletion is deemed by such official to be for the benefit or protection of the Limited Partner or does not have a material adverse effect on the Limited Partners generally or the Partnership; (d) reflect the withdrawal, expulsion, addition or substitution of Partners; (e) reflect the proposal, promulgation or amendment of Regulations under Code section 704, or otherwise, to preserve the uniformity of interest in the Partnership issued or sold from time to time, if, in the opinion of the Corporate GP, the amendment does not have a material adverse effect on the Limited Partners generally; (f) elect for the Partnership to be bound by any successor statute to the Act, if, in the opinion of the Corporate GP, the amendment does not have a material adverse effect on the Limited Partners generally; (g) conform this Agreement to changes in the Act or interpretations thereof which, in the exclusive desecration of the Corporate GP, it believe appropriate, necessary or desirable, if, in the Corporate GP's reasonable opinion, such amendment does not have a materially adverse effect on the Limited Partners generally or the Partnership; (h) change the name of the Partnership; (i) conform the provisions of this Agreement to any applicable requirements of Federal of state law which, in the exclusive discretion of the Corporate GP, it believes appropriate, necessary or desirable, if, in the Corporate GP's reasonable opinion, such amendment does not have a material adverse effect on the Limited Partners generally or the Partnership; and (j) make any change which, in the exclusive discretion of the Corporate GP, is advisable to qualify or to continue the qualification of the Partnership as a limited partnership or a partnership in which the Limited Partners have limited liability under the laws of any state or that is necessary or advisable, in the exclusive discretion of the Corporate GP, so that the Partnership will not be treated as an association taxable as a corporation for Federal income tax purposes. 10.5 EXPULSION OF LIMITED PARTNERS. Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, (a) If, at any time, the Corporate GP determines that any Limited Partner has an ownership percentage of ten percent (10%) or more, the Partnership, in the Corporate GP's exclusive discretion, may cause Redemption by that Limited Partner of the number of Units necessary or advisable to reduce that Limited Partner's ownership percentage to less than ten percent (10%).

In the event the Corporate GP does raise the minimum investment in the Partnership to an amount in excess of any Partners Capital account, the Partnership shall provide notice to the Partner of such event and allow the Partner 30 days to raise the Capital account for that Partner to such raised amount, or more. In the event the Partner does not so raise his Capital account to such minimum amount within 30 days, the Partner shall be deemed to have elected to withdraw from the Partnership and all of his Units shall be Redeemed at the next Redemption date as provided in this LP Agreement. (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Corporate GP, at its sole discretion, may expel any Partner at anytime for any reason, by causing the Redemption of that Partner's Units as of the next Valuation Date, or such other Valuation Date as the Corporate GP may determine. 10.6 NOTIFICATION. Notice shall be sent to each Partner within seven business days from the date of: (a) any decline in the Net Unit Value to less than 50% of the Net Asset Value on the last Valuation Date; (b) any material change in contracts with the Corporate GP, any Additional GP, any FCM, IB or CTA or any of their Affiliates including, but not limited to, any addition or deletion of CTAs or any modification in connection with the method of calculating the incentive fees; (c) any other material change that affects the operation of the Partnership or is a reportable event to the SEC or CFTC or any State Securities Administrator or any self regulatory organization. 10.7 NOTIFICATION CONTENTS.

Upon receipt of a written request, executed by ten percent (10%) or more of the holders of Units for a vote upon and to take action with respect to any rights of the Partners under this LP, the Corporate GP shall call a meeting of all Partners of the Partnership as provided in Section 13.5 hereof to vote on the specific matters raised in the request. 10.9 EXAMINATION OF BOOKS AND RECORDS.

Any such assignment shall be subject to all applicable securities, commodity, and tax laws and the regulations promulgated under each such law.

ARTICLE XII ACCOUNTING RECORDS, REPORTS AND DISTRIBUTIONS 12.1 DISTRIBUTIONS.

The Net Assets of the Partnership will be determined monthly, and any increase or decrease from the end of the preceding month will be added to or subtracted from the accounts of the Partners in the ratio that each account bears to all accounts. Distributions from profits or Capital will be made solely at the discretion of the Corporate GP. 12.2 BOOKS OF ACCOUNT.

The Corporate GP shall cause tax returns for the Partnership to be prepared and timely filed with the appropriate authorities. The Corporate GP shall cause the Partnership to pay any taxes payable by the Partnership; provided, however, that the Corporate GP shall not be required to cause the Partnership to pay any tax so long as the Corporate GP or the Partnership shall be in good faith and by appropriate means contesting the applicability, validity or amount thereof and such contest shall not materially endanger any right or interest of the Partnership. 12.6 TAX ELECTIONS. The Corporate GP shall from time to time, make such tax elections or allocations deemed necessary or desirable to carry out the business of the Partnership or the purposes of this Agreement.

ARTICLE XIII AMENDMENTS 13.1 RESTRICTION ON AMENDMENTS. No amendment to this Agreement shall be effective or binding upon the Partners unless the same shall have been approved by a Majority in Interest of the Partners; provided, however, the Corporate GP may adopt amendments without such approval which are, in the sole judgment of the Corporate GP, deemed necessary or desirable to maintain the business or limited partnership or other favorable tax status of the Partnership, or permit a Public Offering of the Units pursuant to any Federal or state law, regulation, rule or guideline or to maintain the Partnership and the Corporate GP and its principals and any Partner in compliance with the laws, regulations, rules and guidelines which govern or are applicable to the business, including the requirements of any self regulatory organization, or to substitute or add or withdraw persons as Limited Partners; provided, however, no such change may be made to the investment strategy or limited liability of the Limited Partners. 13.2 ADMISSION OF ADDITIONAL PARTNERS. At any time, the Corporate GP may, in its sole discretion and subject to applicable law, admit additional Partners. Each newly admitted Partner must contribute cash equal to the Net Unit Value of the Partnership for each Unit to be acquired. The terms of any additional offering may be different from the terms of the initial offering. All expenses of any such additional offering shall be borne by the either the Partnership or the subscribers thereto, as determined in the sole discretion of the Corporate GP. Pursuant to Article VI, the Corporate GP may consent to and admit any assignee of Units as a substituted Partner. There is no maximum aggregate amount of Units which may be offered and sold by the Partnership or on the amount of contributions which may be received by the Partnership. 13.3 TERMINATION OF OFFERINGS; ADDITIONAL OFFERINGS. Notwithstanding anything stated herein to the contrary, the Corporate GP may from time to time, in its sole discretion, limit the number of Units to be offered, terminate any offering of Units, or register additional Units and/or make additional public or private offerings of Units. No Limited Partner shall have any preemptive, preferential or other rights with respect to the issuance or sale of any additional Units. No Limited Partner shall have the right to consent to the admission of any additional Limited Partners. 13.4 NOTICE OF RESTRICTED TRANSFER. There is no obligation upon the Partnership to issue certificates of ownership. However, should the Corporate GP elect to cause the Partnership to issue certificates of ownership, each certificate of Limited Partnership shall be subject to and contain the following notice: THE LIMITED PARTNER MUST DETERMINE IF THE PARTNERSHIP INTERESTS REPRESENTED BY THIS LIMITED PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT MAY BE TRANSFERRED IN ACCORDANCE WITH APPLICABLE FEDERAL AND STATE LAWS AND REFERENCE MUST BE MADE TO THE OFFERING DOCUMENTATION, LIMITED PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT, AND LEGAL COUNSEL CHOSEN BY THE INVESTOR TO DETERMINE THE RIGHT OF THE INVESTOR TO RESELL THE UNITS EVIDENCED HEREBY. THESE LIMITED PARTNERSHIP INTERESTS SHALL NOT BE TRANSFERABLE BY THE REGISTERED HOLDER EXCEPT BY CONSENT OF THE CORPORATE GP AND AS OTHERWISE PROVIDED IN THE PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT AND UPON THE ISSUANCE OF A FAVORABLE OPINION OF COUNSEL FOR THE LIMITED PARTNERSHIP, AND/OR SUBMISSION TO THE LIMITED PARTNERSHIP OF SUCH OTHER EVIDENCE AS MAY BE SATISFACTORY TO THE LIMITED PARTNERSHIP, THAT SUCH TRANSFER WILL NOT BE IN VIOLATION OF THE UNITED STATES SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR ANY RULE OR REGULATION PROMULGATED THEREUNDER, APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. OR CAUSE THE PARTNERSHIP TO BE TAXED AS A CORPORATION. 13.5 MEETINGS OF PARTNERS. The Corporate GP may call a meeting for any purpose at the cost of the Partnership. A meeting of Partners may be also called by ten percent (10%) of the other Partners by written request that details the purpose and is accompanied by payment of the cost of distribution of the Notice of Meeting and Request to all Partners. The Corporate GP shall, within fifteen (15) days thereafter, provide written notice to all Partners, either in person or by first class, certified mail, of the purpose of the meeting, specify a reasonable time, place, and date, which shall be not less than thirty (30) or more than sixty (60) days, thereafter. An Amendment shall be adopted and binding upon all parties hereto if a Majority in Interest of the Partners votes for the adoption of such amendment. Partners may vote in person or by written proxy delivered to any such meeting. Meetings of Partners may also be held by conference telephone where all Partners can hear one another. 13.6 RIGHT OF CORPORATE GP TO RESIGN. The Other GP-Pacult may submit his resignation as Other GP at any time for any reason without consent of the Corporate GP or any other Partner upon one hundred twenty (120) days prior written notice to the Corporate GP. It shall be the sole obligation of the Partnership, upon such resignation, to provide notice of such resignation to the other Partners and for compliance with the financial and other requirements to maintain the status of the Partnership as a partnership, and not a corporation, for tax purposes under the Code and for compliance with NASAA Guidelines. The Corporate GP may resign or assign any portion of its interest in the Partnership at anytime to a third party and become a Limited Partner with respect to the balance of its interest in the Partnership, if any, if it provides one hundred twenty (120) days prior written notice to all other Partners of its intention to resign and states in such notice the name of the intended assignee who is to become substitute GP and the information reasonably appropriate to enable the Partners to decide whether or not to approve the substitution or, in the alternative, provide notice that the partners must elect a successor GP. In the event of the voluntary withdrawal by the Corporate GP, the Corporate GP shall pay the Partnership's legal fees, recording fees and all other expenses incurred as a result of its withdrawal. Upon resignation, the Corporate GP shall be paid the items identified in Section 13.7 below and be relieved of all responsibility for the future operation of the Partnership. 13.7 AMENDMENT INVOLVING SUCCESSOR CORPORATE GP. Should a resignation or an amendment to the Agreement provide for a change in the Corporate GP upon the conditions provided in this Agreement, the election and admission of a person or persons as a successor or successors to the Corporate GP, shall require the following conditions: the Corporate GP shall retire and withdraw as Corporate GP and the Partnership business shall be continued by the successor GP or GPs, and such amendment shall expressly provide that on or before the effective date of removal. (a) The Corporate GP shall be permitted to Redeem 100% of its Units as of the Valuation Date following its removal or resignation in cash equal to the Net Asset Value of such Corporate GP's interest in the Partnership. (b) The Partnership shall pay to the removed or resigned Corporate GP an amount equal to the Appraised Value of such Corporate GP's assets to be transferred to the successor GP to enable the successor to continue the business of the Partnership. The Appraised Value of the withdrawing Corporate GP's interest in the Partnership shall equal such Corporate GP's interest in the sum of (1) the Expenses advanced by the Corporate GP to the Partnership, (2) all cash items, (3) all prepaid expenses and accounts receivable less a reasonable discount for doubtful accounts, and (4) the Net Book Value of all other assets, unless the withdrawing Corporate GP or the successor Corporate GP believes that the net book value of an asset does not fairly represent its fair market value in which event such Corporate GP shall cause, at its expense, an independent appraisal to be made by a person selected by a Majority in Interest of the Partners to determine its value. (c) The successor Corporate GP and the Partnership shall indemnify the former Corporate GP for all future activities of the Fund. ARTICLE XIV REDEMPTION 14.1 REDEMPTION. A Partner (including any approved assignee who becomes a Limited Partner) may withdraw any part or all of his Capital Contribution and undistributed profits, if any, by requiring the Partnership to redeem any or all of his Units at the Net Asset Value thereof (such withdrawal being herein referred to as "Redemption"). Redemption shall be effective as of the last day of the period established, from time to time, by the Corporate GP for Redemptions. Such Redemptions shall be no less often than quarterly; provided, however, Redemption may be deferred until after the lapse of twelve months from the date of purchase of the Units. 14.2 REDEMPTION PROCEDURES. Redemption shall be after all liabilities, contingent, accrued, reserved in amounts determined by the Corporate GP have been deducted and there remains property of the Partnership sufficient to pay the Net Unit Value as defined in Paragraph 1.3(b). As used herein, "request for Redemption" shall mean a letter mailed or delivered by a Partner and received by the Corporate GP prior to the effective date for which Redemption is requested. Upon Redemption, a Partner shall receive, on or before the last day of the following month, an amount equal to the Net Unit Value redeemed as of the date for which the request for Redemption was received, less accrued expenses and any amount owed by such Partner to the Partnership. Redemption is subject to a Redemption fee to be paid by the Partners as provided below; provided, however, no Partner other than the initial Limited Partner, may redeem any Units until the last day of the sixth month after the commencement of trading. All Redemption requests shall be subject to the following: (a) Under special circumstances including, but not limited to, the inability to liquidate positions as of such Redemption date or default or delay in payments due the Partnership from banks, brokers, or other persons, the Partnership may in turn delay payment to Partners requesting Redemption of Units of the proportionate part of the Net Unit Value represented by the sums which are the subject of such delay or default. (b) The Corporate GP in its sole discretion may, upon notice to the Partners, declare additional Redemption dates and may cause the Partnership to redeem fractions of Units and, prior to registration of Units for public sale, redeem Units held by Partners who do not hold the required minimum amount of Units established, from time to time, by the Corporate GP. (c) There shall be no redemption fee charged for redemption of Units from the Fund. The amount of any cash distributions and amounts paid upon Redemption of Units as of the end of such month shall be subtracted from the Capital account of such Partner. 14.3 SPECIAL REDEMPTION. (a) In the event the Net Unit Value falls to less than fifty percent (50%) of the Net Asset Value established by the greater of the initial offering price of one thousand dollars ($1,000), less commissions and other charges, or such higher value earned after payment of the incentive fee for the addition of profits, the Corporate GP shall immediately suspend all trading, provide immediate notice, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, to all Partners of the reduction in Net Asset Value, and afford all Partners the opportunity for fifteen (15) days after the date of such notice to Redeem their Units in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.5 and 9.6, above. No trading shall commence until after such fifteen (15) day period. (b) Until such time as the Corporate GP elects to qualify the Partnership Units for public sale, the Corporate GP will establish, from time to time, the minimum amount that each Limited Partner will be required to contribute to Capital of the Partnership. Upon receipt of notice from the Corporate GP of such minimum (which will be equally applicable to all Limited Partners), each Limited Partner will be required to contribute sufficient Capital to equal or exceed such minimum, The failure to contribute such Capital within ten days after receipt of said notice from the Corporate GP shall be deemed a request by the Limited Partner for redemption of 100% of his interest in the Partnership and termination as a Partner. Upon election by the Corporate GP and qualification of the Partnership Units for public sale, there will be no further right of the Corporate GP to give notice of an increase in the minimum amount that all Limited Partners will be required to contribute to Capital of the Partnership. Except for the increase in the minimum amount that all Limited Partners, in the sole discretion of the Corporate GP, shall be required to contribute to Capital or suffer redemption, there will be no required contribution or assessments of the Limited Partners. ARTICLE XV NATURE OF PARTNER'S LIABILITIES FOR CLAIMS 15.1 PROSECUTION OF CLAIMS. The Corporate GP shall arrange to prosecute, defend, settle or compromise actions at law or in equity or with any party at the expense of the Partnership as such may be necessary or desirable to enforce, protect, or maintain Partnership interests. 15.2 SATISFACTION OF CLAIMS. The Corporate GP shall satisfy any claims against, errors asserted, or other liability of the Partnership and any judgment, decree, decision or settlement, first out of any insurance proceeds available therefore, next, out of Partnership assets and income, and finally out of the assets and income of the Corporate GP and any Other GP. 15.3 CORPORATE GP DECISION. The decisions made by the Corporate GP in regard to the prosecution or settlement of claims, errors, and other liabilities, will be final unless contested and put to a vote of Partners pursuant to this LP Agreement, in which case a vote of a Majority in Interest will determine the course of action. 15.4 EXONERATION, INDEMNIFICATION, AND NO ANTICIPATION OF PAYMENTS. The Corporate GP and any Other GP shall not be liable to the Partnership or the Partners for any error in judgment or any mistake of law or fact or any act done in good faith or any failure to comply with its obligations hereunder except for breach of fiduciary obligation owed to the Partnership or gross negligence or willful wrongful action on its part in the management of Partnership affairs or violation of Federal or state securities laws in connection with the offering of Units for sale. In addition: (a) The Corporate GP will be indemnified for liabilities and expenses arising from any threatened, pending or completed action or suit in which it or any affiliate is a party or is threatened to be made a party by reason of the fact that it is or was the Corporate GP of the Partnership (other than an action by the Partnership or a Partner against the Corporate GP which is finally resolved in favor of the Partnership or Partner). The Partnership will indemnify the Corporate GP and its affiliates against expenses, including attorney's fees, judgments and amounts paid in settlement of an action, suit or proceeding if it has acted in good faith and in a manner it reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interest of the Partnership, and provided that its conduct did not constitute negligence or a breach of fiduciary obligations in the performance of its duty to the Partnership or a violation of the securities laws. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order or settlement against the Partnership shall not of itself create a presumption that the Corporate GP or any affiliate did not act in good faith and not in the best interest of the Partnership. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Partnership shall advance or pay the Corporate GP or any of its Affiliates for legal expenses and other costs incurred as a result of any legal action which alleges a breach of the Federal or state securities laws only if the following conditions are satisfied: (i) the legal action relates to acts or omissions with respect to the performance of duties or services on behalf of the Partnership; (ii) the legal action is initiated by a third party who is not a Limited Partner, or the legal action is initiated by a Limited Partner and an independent arbitration panel, administrative law judge, or court of competent jurisdiction specifically approves such advancement; and, (iii) the Corporate GP or its Affiliates undertake to repay the advanced funds to the Partnership, together with the applicable legal rate of interest thereon, in cases which such party is not entitled to indemnification under NASAA Guideline II.F. To the extent that a Corporate GP or an Affiliate has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to above or in defense of any claim, issue or other matter related to the Partnership or any other Partner or person who applied to be a Partner, the Partnership shall indemnify such Corporate GP against the expenses, including attorneys' fees and costs, actually and reasonably incurred by it in connection therewith. (b) The indemnification of a Corporate GP shall be limited to and recoverable only out of the assets of the Partnership. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Partnership's indemnification of the Corporate GP shall be limited to the amount of such loss, liability or damage which is not otherwise compensated for by insurance carried for the benefit of the Partnership. Additionally, the Partnership may not incur the cost of that portion of liability insurance which insures the Corporate GP for any liability as to which the Corporate GP is prohibited from being indemnified under this Agreement. (c) Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, the Partnership shall not advance the expenses or pay for any insurance to pay for the costs of the defense or any liability which is prohibited from being indemnified pursuant to NASAA Guideline II.F. Specifically, no indemnification which is the result of negligence or misconduct by the Corporate GP or for any allegation of a violation of the Federal or state securities laws by or against the Corporate GP, any broker/dealer or any other party unless there has been a successful adjudication on the merits of each count involving alleged securities law violation as to the Corporate GP or broker/dealer or such other party; or a court of competent jurisdiction approves a settlement of the claims against the Corporate GP or any broker/dealer or any other party and finds, specifically, that the indemnification of the settlement and related costs should be made after the court of law has been made aware that the Securities and Exchange Commission opposes such indemnification and the position of any applicable state securities regulatory authority where the Partnership Interests were offered or sold without the compliance with specific conditions upon such indemnification and the action covered satisfies the provisions of Section 10.4 (a) of this Agreement. Any change in the requirements imposed by the Securities and Exchange Commission and the state securities administrators in regard to indemnification shall cause a corresponding change in the right of the Corporate GP to indemnification. (d) The indemnification of the Corporate GP provided in this Article shall extend to any employee, agent, attorney, certified public accountant, or Affiliate of the Partnership and the Corporate GP. (e) The Partnership shall indemnify, to the extent of the Partnership assets, each Partner against any claims of liability asserted against a Partner solely because he is a Partner in the Partnership. (f) In the event the Partnership or any Partner is made a party to any claim, dispute or litigation or otherwise incurs any loss or expense, as a result of or in connection with any Partner's activities unrelated to the Partnership business or as a result of an unfounded claim against the Partnership or any other Partner brought as a result of alleged actions by said Partner, the Partner which was responsible for the allegations which caused such loss or expense shall indemnify and reimburse the Partnership and all other Partners for all loss and expense incurred, including attorneys' fees and costs. (g) No creditor of a Partner shall have a right to vote Units. Nor may any Partner or creditor of a Partner anticipate any principal or income from the Fund prior to the approval of a Redemption Request or the payment of a distribution from the Fund. (h) The Corporate GP may rely upon the written opinion of legal counsel selected by the Partnership as to the taking of any action or refrain from any action on behalf of the Partnership without incurring any liability to the Partnership or any Partner. ARTICLE XVI CONFLICTS OF INTEREST, HIGH RISK, AND SPECULATIVE INVESTMENT 16.1 CONFLICTS OF INTEREST. Significant actual and potential conflicts of interest exist in the structure and operation of the Partnership. The Corporate GP has used its best efforts to identify and describe all existing and potential conflicts of interest that may be present in this LP Agreement. The Corporate GP intends to assert that all Partners have, by subscribing to the Partnership, consented to the existence of such existing and potential conflicts of interest as are described in this LP Agreement in the event of any claim or other proceeding by any Partner is brought against the Corporate GP, and its Principals, any Other GPs and their Principals, any CTAs and their Principals, any FCMs and their Principals, any IB and their Principals or any Affiliate of any of them that alleges that such conflicts violated any duty owed to said Partner. (a) MANAGEMENT OF OTHER EQUITY AND FOR THEIR OWN ACCOUNTS BY THE GPs, THE CTAs, AND THEIR PRINCIPALS. The right of any GP, in any capacity, to manage and the actual management by the CTA of accounts they or their Affiliates own or control and other commodity accounts and pools, presents existing and potential conflicts of interest. There is no limitation upon the right of the any GP and their principals, the CTA, or any of their Affiliates to engage in trading commodities for their own account. Having said that, the Corporate GP will provide and obtain representations from all Other GPs and persons who perform services for the Partnership and their Affiliates that no prior orders known in advance to be placed by the Partnership will be entered for their personal accounts. The Partnership's CTA will be effecting trades for its own accounts and for others (including other commodity pools in competition with this Pool) on a discretionary basis. It is possible that positions taken by the CTA for other accounts may be taken ahead of or opposite positions taken on behalf of the Partnership. The Corporate GP and any Other GP, should they form other commodity pools, and the CTA, may have financial incentives to favor other accounts over the Partnership. In the event the Corporate GP, or any Other GP or the CTA, or any of their principals trade for their own account, such trading records shall not be made available for inspection. The Corporate GP does not presently intend to engage in trading for its own account; however, the CTA reserves the right to trade for its own account. And no representation can be made regarding the trading by any Other GP to be admitted to the Partnership in the futures. Any trading for their personal accounts by the Corporate GP, any Other GP, and any Commodity Trading Advisor selected to trade for the Partnership or any of their principals could present a conflict of interest in regard to position limits, timing of the taking of positions or other similar conflicts. The result to the Partnership would be a reduction in the potential for profit should the entry or exit of positions be at unfavorable prices by virtue of position limits or entry of other trades in front of the Partnership trades by any GP or CTA responsible for the management of the Partnership. (b) POSSIBLE RETENTION OF VOTING CONTROL BY THE CORPORATE GP. There is no limit upon the value of interests in the Partnership the Corporate GP and its principal and Affiliates may purchase. It will be possible for them to vote, individually or as a block, to create a conflict with the best interests of the Partnership and the other Partners. (c) CORPORATE GP TO REMAIN AGAINST POSSIBLE BEST INTEREST OF PARTNERSHIP. As the Corporate GP has a financial interest in the operation of the Partnership in the form of the 1% management fee and a 5% incentive fee, it is unlikely that the Corporate GP would voluntarily resign, even if such resignation would be in the best interest of the Partnership and the other Partners (d) FEES AND CHARGES TO THE PARTNERSHIP PAID TO CORPORATE GP NOT NEGOTIATED. The management and incentive fees, if any, paid to the Corporate GP and the amount of the round turn brokerage commission per trade payable to the Corporate GP by the Partnership have not been negotiated at arm's length. The Corporate GP has a conflict of interest between its responsibility to manage the Partnership for the benefit of the LPs and its interest in receiving the management and brokerage commissions as a result of the frequency of trades entered by the CTA. And, the Corporate GP has a conflict of interest in the definition of the risks to be assumed by the CTA by virtue of the incentive fee to be paid to the Corporate GP. The Corporate GP could allow the CTA selected to take trades that are other improvident to improve the chance of profit rather than protect the best interests of the Partnership. The Corporate GP will select the CTAs to manage the Partnership assets and the CTAs determine the frequency of trading. Because the Corporate GP will earn a profit on each round turn paid by the Partnership, the Corporate GP's best interests are served if it selects CTAs that will trade the Partnership's Net Assets assigned to them in a way to maximize the frequency of trades to maximize the number of round-turn commissions; i.e., it is in the best interest of the Corporate GP to increase the frequency of trading rather than concentrate on the expected profitability of the CTAs without regard to frequency of trades. This conflict is offset by the fact the Corporate GP does not select any of the trades and the Corporate GP is paid an incentive fee and the CTA(s) is paid an incentive fee of New Net Profits. The arrangements between the Corporate GP and the Partnership with respect to the payment of the commissions are competitive with the arrangements made by other comparable commodity pools to clear their trades. These arrangements are believed by the Corporate GP to be fair to the Partnership. (e) CORPORATE GP COULD WITHHOLD APPROVAL OF REDEMPTIONS. The Corporate GP has an incentive to withhold distributions and to withhold approval of Redemptions because the Corporate GP receives an incentive fee on profits that depend, in part, on the amount of equity available to the trading advisor to trade. (f) HIGH RISK TRADING BY THE GP and CTA, or BOTH, TO GENERATE INCENTIVE FEES. As a general rule, the greater the risk assumed, the greater the potential for profit. Because the Corporate GP and the CTA are compensated by the Partnership by an incentive fee based on the New Net Profit earned by the Partnership it is possible for the Corporate GP to fail to supervise and for the CTA, independently, to select trades which normally would be too risky for the Partnership in the attempt to earn the incentive fees. (g) THE CORPORATE GP TO RETAIN A SHARE OF THE COMMISSIONS. The Partnership will pay a round turn commission to the Corporate GP. The Corporate GP has an incentive to select CTAs that trade frequently to increase the share of profits earned by the Corporate GP from the commissions charged to the Partnership. This risk is offset by the payment of an incentive fee based upon the New Net Profit to the Corporate GP. 16.2 NO RESOLUTION OF CONFLICTS PROCEDURES. As is typical in many partnerships, the Corporate GP has not established formal procedures, and none are anticipated in the future, to resolve the actual and potential conflicts of interest that are present the structure of the Partnership or that may arise in the future. It will be extremely difficult, if not impossible, for the Corporate GP to assure that these and future potential conflicts will not, in fact, result in adverse consequences to the Partnership or the LPs. The foregoing list of risk factors and potential conflicts of interest is complete as of the date of this Prospectus, however, additional risks and conflicts may occur which are not presently foreseen by the Corporate GP. Investors are not to construe the risks identified in this LP Agreement as legal or tax advice. Before determining to invest in the Units, potential limited partners should read this entire LP Agreement as well as the Partnership's offering documents including, but not limited to, the subscription agreement, and consult with their own personal legal, tax, and other professional advisors as to the legal, tax, and economic aspects of a purchase of Units and the suitability of such purchase for them. 16.3 INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL. The Corporate GP has or will employ legal counsel to prepare Offering Documents, provide explanations of the tax consequences of an investment in the Partnership and opine upon the legality of the issuance of the Units. No law firm selected nor its principals, nor any accountant or other expert employed by the Corporate GP to render advice in connection with the preparation of the Offering Documents or any other documents attendant thereto, have any present interest or future expectation of ownership in the Partnership or its Corporate GP or the Underwriter or the CTAs or the IB or the FCM. A substantial portion of the legal fees for preparation of the offering documents is contingent upon the sale of the Minimum and the Maximum of the Units to be offered for sale. No other experts will be retained prior to commencement of trading. ARTICLE XVII POWER OF ATTORNEY 17.1 POWER OF ATTORNEY EXECUTED CONCURRENTLY. Concurrent with the written acceptance and adoption of the provisions of this Agreement, each Partner shall execute and deliver to the Corporate GP, a Power of Attorney (paragraph 5 of the Subscription Agreement).

Account Opened. The General Partner establishes and the Depository accepts and opens an interest bearing savings account titled "Escrow Account - Providence" to clear proceeds of sale of limited partnership interests (the "Units") in Providence Select Fund, Limited Partnership, (the "Fund") from subscribers at an initial offering price of one thousand dollars ($1,000) to be held until a total face amount of two million thirty thousand dollars ($2,030,000) of Units are sold and, thereafter to continue to accept proceeds of sale from subscribers sold at the Net Asset Value per Unit computed after the close of business on the last business day of each month until a total of ten million dollars ($10,000,000) in value of Units are sold (the "Offering").

(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. (3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering. (b) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each post- effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. (c) The General Partner has provided an indemnification to Futures Investment Company, the best efforts selling agent.
