Item 8.01 Other Events.

The Board of Directors of Preferred Investment Solutions Corp., the managing owner of World Monitor Trust III – Series J (the “Registrant”), determined that, beginning November 30, 2008, the Registrant’s units of beneficial interest (the “Units”) will no longer be publicly offered and will only be available on a private placement basis to “accredited investors” pursuant to Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933. This change in the manner in which the Registrant’s Units are offered will have no material impact to current investors as there will be no change in the fees and expenses and redemption terms of the Units or any change in the management and investment strategy and reporting provided to investors of the Registrant.

The only change will be in the method by which the Registrant’s Units will be available, and the increased suitability standard of persons subscribing for Units. Because the Registrant’s Units will be available on a private placement basis, new subscribers (and existing investors making additional subscriptions) must be made by persons that are “accredited investors” as defined in Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933. Current investors that are not “accredited investors” will not be required to redeem their current Units, but will not be able to purchase additional Units.

For new subscribers, the minimum initial investment will be $25,000 ($10,000 for benefit plan investors (including IRAs)). The minimum additional subscription amount for current investors will be $5,000. A copy of the Notice to Unitholders is filed herewith as Exhibit 99.3 to this Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety.
