1. Organization and Business
 
Graham Alternative Investment Fund II LLC (the “Fund”) was formed on May 16, 2006, commenced operations on August 1, 2006 and is organized as a Delaware Limited Liability Company (“LLC”). The Fund offers members Class 0 and Class 2 units of a Blended Strategies Portfolio, and Class 0 and Class 2 units of a Systematic Strategies Portfolio.  Graham Alternative Investment Ltd. (“GAI”) is a British Virgin Islands business company which was formed on June 1, 2006 and commenced operations on August 1, 2006.  The Fund invests all of its Blended Strategies Portfolio assets dedicated to trading in Graham Alternative Investment Trading LLC (“GAIT”), a Delaware LLC formed on May 18, 2006 through an investment in GAI.  The Fund invests all of its Systematic Strategies Portfolio assets dedicated to trading in Graham Alternative Investment Trading II LLC (“GAIT II”), a Delaware LLC formed on July 16, 2008 through an investment in GAI. GAIT and GAIT II (collectively “the GAIT Funds”) invest in various master trading vehicles (“Master Funds”), all of which are managed by Graham Capital Management, L.P. (the “Advisor” or “Manager”). The Fund is the sole owner of GAI and GAI invests all of its assets into the GAIT Funds.  The Manager is the director of GAI and the sole investment advisor of GAI, the GAIT Funds and the Fund. The Manager is registered as a Commodity Pool Operator and Commodity Trading Advisor with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission and is a member of the National Futures Association.
 
The investment objective of the Fund is to achieve long-term capital appreciation through professionally managed trading in both U.S. and foreign markets, primarily in futures contracts, forwards contracts, spot currency contracts, options and associated derivative instruments such swaps through its investments in the GAIT Funds which in turn invest in various Master Funds.  The Master Funds seek to profit from opportunities in the global financial markets, including interest rate futures, foreign exchange, global stock indices and energy, metals and agricultural futures, as professionally managed multi-strategy investment vehicles.  Each of the investment programs consists of multiple trading strategies of the Manager, which the Manager has combined in an effort to diversify the Fund’s investment exposure and to make the Fund’s performance returns less volatile and more consistently profitable.
 
In addition to trading in the Interbank market for foreign exchange, the Manager currently executes orders on all the major U.S. futures exchanges and may also trade on, but is not limited to, the Bolsa de Mercadorias and Futuros (“BMF”), Borsa Italiana Idem (“IML”), the Eurex Deutschland (“EUREX”), Euronext Paris (“MONEP”), the Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Ltd. (“HKEX”), the Intercontinental Exchange (“ICE”), the London Commodity Exchange (“LCE”), the London International Financial Futures and Options Exchange Ltd. (“LIFFE”), the London Metal Exchange (“LME”), the Marché à Terme International de France (“MATIF”), the Montreal Exchange (“ME”), the Osaka Securities Exchange (“OSE”), the Sydney Futures Exchange Ltd. (“SFE”), the Singapore International Monetary Exchange (“SIMEX”), the South African Exchange (“SAFEX”), the Tokyo International Financial Futures Exchange (“TIFFE”), the Tokyo Commodity Exchange (“TOCOM”) and the Tokyo Stock Exchange (“TSE”).
 
SEI Global Services, Inc. (“SEI”) serves as the independent administrator and transfer agent of the Fund and GAI.  SEI is responsible for certain matters pertaining to the administration of the Fund and GAI.
 
The Fund will terminate on December 31, 2050 or at an earlier date if certain conditions occur as outlined in the Limited Liability Company Agreement (“LLC Agreement”) of the Fund.

Graham Alternative Investment Fund II LLC
 
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
 
1. Organization and Business (continued)
 
Duties of the Manager
 
Subject to the terms and conditions of the LLC Agreement, the Manager has complete and exclusive responsibility for managing and administering the affairs of the Fund and for directing the investment and reinvestment of the assets of the Fund, GAI and the GAIT Funds.
 
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
These consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) and all amounts are stated in U.S. dollars. The preparation of these consolidated financial statements requires the Manager to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Amounts included in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes related to September 30, 2010 and 2009 and the three and nine month periods then ended are unaudited.  Amounts included herein as of December 31, 2009 have been taken from the December 31, 2009 audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes of the Fund.
 
In July 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued “The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles” (the “Codification”). The Codification is the source of authoritative U.S. GAAP recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities. All existing accounting standard documents are superseded and all other accounting literature not included in the Codification is considered non-authoritative. The adoption of the Codification does not impact the Fund’s consolidated financial statements except for references made to authoritative accounting literature in the footnotes.
 
Principles of Consolidation
 
The Fund owns 100% of GAI and as such these consolidated financial statements include all the accounts of the Fund and GAI.  Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation. Creditors of the Fund have recourse to all assets of the Fund for amounts due to them, while creditors of GAI would have recourse only to the assets of GAI.
 
Investment in Graham Alternative Investment Trading LLC and Graham Alternative Investment Trading II LLC
 
The Fund records its investments in GAIT and GAIT II at fair value in accordance with U.S. GAAP. In determining its net asset value, the GAIT Funds record their investments in Master Funds at fair value in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The Fund records its proportionate share of the GAIT Funds’ investment income, expenses, fees, and realized and unrealized gains and losses on a monthly basis and includes them in the consolidated statements of operations. Purchases and sales of units in the Fund and the GAIT Funds are recorded on a trade date basis. The accounting policies of the GAIT Funds are described in their attached respective financial statements.
 
Each of the GAIT Funds charges its investors, including the Fund, an Advisory Fee, Brokerage Fee, Sponsor Fee and Incentive Allocation, all of which are described in detail in Note 4. The Fund does not charge any additional fees; however each investor in the Fund indirectly bears their portion of the advisory fee, brokerage fee, sponsor fee and incentive allocation charged by the GAIT Funds.

Graham Alternative Investment Fund II LLC
 
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements (continued)
 
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
 
Investment in Graham Alternative Investment Trading LLC and Graham Alternative Investment Trading II LLC (continued)
 
At September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the Fund owned 33.42% and 34.38%, respectively of GAIT.  At September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the Fund owned 30.22% and 19.48%, respectively of GAIT II.
 
Fair Value
 
The fair value of the Fund’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under U.S. GAAP, approximates the carrying amounts presented in the consolidated statements of financial condition. Changes in these carrying amounts are included in the consolidated statements of operations.
 
The Fund follows U.S. GAAP for fair value measurements, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and requires certain disclosures about fair value measurements.  U.S. GAAP uses a three-level hierarchy for fair value measurement based on the transparency and independence of inputs used in the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date.
 
The fair value hierarchy categorizes asset and liability positions into one of three levels, as summarized below, based on the inputs and assumptions used in deriving fair value.
 
 
Level 1 inputs are unadjusted closing or settle prices for such assets or liabilities as published by the primary exchange upon which they are traded.
 
Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities obtained from independent brokers and/or market makers in each security.
 
Level 3 inputs are those which are considered unobservable and are significant in arriving at fair value.
 
The Fund reports the fair value of its investment related assets and liabilities in accordance with the hierarchy established under U.S. GAAP.  In accordance with this hierarchy, the Fund’s investments in the GAIT Funds have been classified as Level 2 valuations based on the release of ASU 2009-12 in 2009.  As of September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, neither the GAIT Funds nor the Master Funds held any Level 3 investments as defined by ASU 2009-12.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
The Fund considers cash and cash equivalents to include all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when acquired.
 
Indemnifications
 
In the normal course of business, the Fund, the GAIT Funds and the Master Funds enter into contracts that contain a variety of indemnifications. Such contracts include those with the Master Funds’ brokers and trading counterparties. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown; however, the Fund has not had prior claims or losses with respect to such indemnifications and considers the risk of loss to be remote.

3. Capital Accounts
 
The Fund offers Class 0 Units and Class 2 Units (collectively, the “Units”) in both Blended and Systematic Strategies Portfolios. The Fund may issue additional Classes in the future subject to different fees, expenses or other terms, or to invest in other investment programs or combinations of investment programs managed by the Manager.
 
A separate Capital Account is maintained for each member with respect to each member’s Class of Units. The initial balance of each member’s Capital Account will equal the initial contribution to the Fund by such member with respect to the Class to which such Capital Account relates. Each member’s Capital Account is increased by any additional subscription, and decreased by any redemption by such member of Units of such Class to which the Capital Account relates. All income and expenses of the Fund are allocated among the members’ Capital Accounts in proportion to the balance that each Capital Account bears to the balance of all Capital Accounts as of the beginning of such fiscal period.
 
Addition of Members and Managing Members
 
Units are available for subscription as of the first business day of each month upon at least three business days prior written notice.
 
Subscriptions
 
Units may be purchased at a price equal to the Net Asset Value per Unit of the relevant Class as of the immediately preceding Valuation Day, as defined in the LLC agreement. The minimum initial subscription from each investor in each Class is $10,000. Members may subscribe for additional Units in a minimum amount of not less than $5,000.
 
Redemption of Units
 
Units are not subject to any minimum holding period. Members may redeem Units at the Net Asset Value thereof as of each Valuation Day upon not less than three business days’ prior written notice to the Administrator. A partial redemption request for an amount less than $10,000 will not be accepted, nor will a redemption request be accepted to the extent that it would result in an investor owning less than $10,000. The redemption proceeds will normally be remitted within 15 days after the Valuation Day, without interest for the period from the Valuation Day to the payment date.
 
Redemption Fees
 
Class 2 Units are subject to a redemption fee equal to 2% of their Net Asset Value if redeemed within six months from their subscription date and a redemption fee equal to 1% of their Net Asset Value if redeemed more than six and less than twelve months from their subscription date. Class 0 Units are not subject to a redemption fee. Redemption fees are payable to the Manager upon redemption of Units.

4. Fees
 
Advisory Fees
 
Each Class of the GAIT Funds other than Class M pays the Manager an advisory fee (the “Advisory Fee”) at an aggregate annual rate equal to 2% of the Net Asset Value of such Class. The Advisory Fee is payable monthly in arrears calculated as of the last business day of each month and any other date the Manager may permit, in its sole and absolute discretion, as of which any subscription or redemption is effected with respect to Units of such Class during the month.
 
Sponsor Fees
 
Each Class of the GAIT Funds other than Class M pays the Manager a sponsor fee (the “Sponsor Fee”) at an annual rate of 1% of its Net Asset Value, payable monthly in arrears, determined in the same manner as the Advisory Fee.
 
Incentive Allocation
 
At the end of each calendar quarter, the Manager of the GAIT Funds will receive a special allocation of net profits (the “Incentive Allocation”) in an amount equal to 20% of the New High Net Trading Profits of each Class as defined in the LLC Agreement. The Incentive Allocation is also accrued and allocable on the date of redemption with respect to any Units that are redeemed prior to the end of a calendar quarter. This allocation is reflected as an expense in the consolidated statements of operations of the Fund.
 
Brokerage Fees
 
Each Class of the GAIT Funds other than Class M pays the Manager a brokerage fee (the “Brokerage Fee”) at the annual rate specified in the table below. This Brokerage Fee is payable monthly in arrears and calculated as of the last business day of each month in the same manner as the Advisory Fee.

Class
   
Annual Rate
 
         
Class 0
      2 %
Class 2
      4 %

In consideration of the Brokerage Fee, the Manager bears all of the GAIT Funds’ trading commissions (including exchange, clearing and regulatory fees relating to its trades), routine legal expenses, internal and external accounting, audit and tax preparation expenses, fees and expenses of an external or internal administrator, and expenses and costs of printing and mailing reports and notices, together with the costs incurred in connection with the organization of the GAIT Funds and the GAIT Funds’ continuous offering of Units. To the extent the GAIT Funds are allocated any of these expenses from the Master Funds in which it invests, the Manager will reimburse the GAIT Funds those amounts.  These reimbursements are included in other income in the statements of operations and managing member allocation.
 
Any portion of any of the above fees, including the Incentive Allocation may be paid by the Manager to third parties as compensation for selling activities in connection with the Fund.

5. Income Taxes
 
No provision for income taxes has been made in the accompanying consolidated financial statements, as members are individually responsible for reporting income or loss based upon their respective share of the Fund’s revenues and expenses for income tax purposes.
 
U.S. GAAP provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in the consolidated financial statements. U.S. GAAP requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Fund’s tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet a more-likely-than-not threshold would be recorded as a tax expense in the current year. The Manager has evaluated the Fund’s tax positions and has concluded that there are no significant tax positions requiring recognition, measurement or disclosure in the financial statements. The Manager is not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax expense will change materially in the next twelve months.
 
6. Related Party Transactions
 
The Manager, due to its relationship with its affiliates, may enter into certain related party transactions.

Total return is calculated for Class 0 units and Class 2 Units taken as a whole and is not annualized. Total return is calculated as the change in total members’ capital adjusted for subscriptions or redemptions during the year. An individual member’s return may vary from these returns based on the timing of capital transactions and the applicability of Advisory Fees, Brokerage Fees, Sponsor Fees and the Incentive Allocation. The net investment loss and total expense ratios (including Incentive Allocation) are calculated for Class 0 Units and Class 2 Units taken as a whole and include amounts from the Fund and amounts allocated from the GAIT Funds. The computation of such ratios is based on the amount of net investment loss, expenses and Incentive Allocation. The net investment loss and total expense ratios are computed based upon the weighted average of members’ capital for Class 0 and Class 2 Units of the Fund for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009.
 
8. Subsequent Events
 
The Fund had subscriptions of approximately $12.5 million and redemptions of approximately $1.2 million for the period from October 1, 2010 through November 15, 2010.  These amounts have not been included in the financial statements.

1. Organization and Business
 
Graham Alternative Investment Trading LLC (“GAIT”) was formed on May 18, 2006, commenced operations on August 1, 2006 and is organized as a Delaware Limited Liability Company. Graham Capital Management, L.P. (the “Managing Member” or “Manager”) is the Managing Member and the sole investment advisor. The Managing Member is registered as a Commodity Pool Operator and Commodity Trading Advisor with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission and is a member of the National Futures Association.
 
The investment objective of GAIT is to achieve long-term capital appreciation through professionally managed trading through its investment in various master trading vehicles (“Master Funds”). As more fully described in Note 2, these Master Funds invest in a broad range of currency forward and futures contracts; bond, interest rate, and index futures contracts; commodity forward and futures contracts, and swaps thereon (collectively referred to as “Derivative Positions”) traded on U.S. and foreign exchanges.
 
In addition to trading in the Interbank market for foreign exchange, the Manager currently executes orders on all the major U.S. futures exchanges and may also trade on, but is not limited to, the Bolsa de Mercadorias and Futuros (“BMF”), Borsa Italiana Idem (“IML”), the Eurex Deutschland (“EUREX”), Euronext Paris (“MONEP”), the Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Ltd. (“HKEX”), the Intercontinental Exchange (“ICE”), the London Commodity Exchange (“LCE”), the London International Financial Futures and Options Exchange Ltd. (“LIFFE”), the London Metal Exchange (“LME”), the Marché à Terme International de France (“MATIF”), the Montreal Exchange (“ME”), the Osaka Securities Exchange (“OSE”), the Sydney Futures Exchange Ltd. (“SFE”), the Singapore International Monetary Exchange (“SIMEX”), the South African Exchange (“SAFEX”), the Tokyo International Financial Futures Exchange (“TIFFE”), the Tokyo Commodity Exchange (“TOCOM”) and the Tokyo Stock Exchange (“TSE”).
 
SEI Global Services, Inc. (“SEI”) is GAIT’s independent administrator and transfer agent.  SEI is responsible for certain matters pertaining to the administration of GAIT.
 
GAIT will terminate on December 31, 2050 or at an earlier date if certain conditions occur as outlined in the Limited Liability Company Agreement (“LLC Agreement”) of GAIT.
 
Duties of the Managing Member
 
Subject to the terms and conditions of the LLC Agreement, the Managing Member has complete and exclusive responsibility for managing and administering the affairs of GAIT and for directing the investment and reinvestment of the assets of GAIT.
 
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
These financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) and all amounts are stated in U.S. dollars. The preparation of these financial statements requires the Managing Member to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
 
Amounts included in the financial statements and accompanying notes related to September 30, 2010 and 2009 and the three and nine month periods then ended are unaudited.  Amounts included herein as of December 31, 2009 have been taken from the December 31, 2009 audited financial statements and accompanying notes of GAIT.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
 
In July 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued “The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles” (the “Codification”). The Codification is the source of authoritative U.S. GAAP recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities. All existing accounting standard documents are superseded and all other accounting literature not included in the Codification is considered non-authoritative.  The adoption of the Codification does not impact GAIT’s financial statements except for references made to authoritative accounting literature in the footnotes.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
GAIT considers cash and cash equivalents to include all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when acquired. At December 31, 2009, this amount was primarily invested in overnight deposits with major U.S. financial institutions.
 
Investments in Master Funds
 
GAIT invests in various Master Funds which are managed by the Managing Member. These investments are valued in the accompanying statements of financial condition at fair value in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Gains and losses are allocated monthly by each Master Fund to GAIT based upon GAIT’s proportionate share of the net assets of each Master Fund and are included in the statements of operations and managing member allocation for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009.
 
Fair Value
 
The fair value of GAIT’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under U.S. GAAP, approximates the carrying amounts presented in the statements of financial condition. Changes in these carrying amounts are included in the statements of operations and managing member allocation.
 
GAIT follows U.S. GAAP for fair value measurements, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and requires certain disclosures about fair value measurements.  U.S. GAAP uses a three-level hierarchy for fair value measurement based on the transparency and independence of inputs used in the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date.
 
The fair value hierarchy categorizes asset and liability positions into one of three levels, as summarized below, based on the inputs and assumptions used in deriving fair value.
 
 
Level 1 inputs are unadjusted closing or settle prices for such assets or liabilities as published by the primary exchange upon which they are traded.
 
Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities obtained from independent brokers and/or market makers in each security.
 
Level 3 inputs are those which are considered unobservable and are significant in arriving at fair value.
 
GAIT reports the fair value of its investment related assets and liabilities in accordance with the hierarchy established under U.S. GAAP.  In accordance with this hierarchy, GAIT’s investments in Master Funds, Graham Cash Assets LLC (“GCA”), and Graham Cash Assets II LLC (“GCA II”) have been classified as Level 2 valuations based on the release of ASU 2009-12 in 2009.  As of September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, the Master Funds and GCA did not hold any Level 3 investments.

Fair Value (continued)
 
Derivative Instruments
 
In the normal course of business, the Master Funds utilize derivative financial instruments in connection with their trading activities. Derivative instruments derive their value from underlying assets, indices, reference rates or a combination of these factors.  Investments in derivative financial instruments are subject to additional risks that can result in a loss of all or part of an investment.  The Master Funds’ derivative financial instruments are classified by the following primary underlying risks: interest rate, credit, foreign currency exchange rate, commodity price, and equity price risks. These risks can be in excess of the amounts recognized in the statements of financial condition. In addition, the Master Funds are also subject to additional counterparty risk should their counterparties fail to meet the terms of their contracts.  Management of counterparty risk involves a number of considerations, such as the financial profile of the counterparty, specific terms and duration of the contractual agreement, and the value of collateral held, if any. The Master Funds have established initial credit approval, credit limits, and collateral requirements and may reduce their exposure to any counterparties they deem necessary.  Trading in non-U.S. Dollar denominated derivative instruments may subject the value of, and gains and losses associated with, such contracts to additional risks related to adverse changes in the applicable exchange rates. To the extent a Master Fund is deemed to be insolvent, all positions could be subject to liquidation.
 
The Master Funds record all their derivative financial instruments at fair value, which is derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP.  Unrealized gains and losses from these instruments are recorded based on changes in their fair value.  Realized gains and losses are recorded when the positions are closed.  All unrealized and realized gains and losses related to derivative financial instruments are included in net gain (loss) on investments in the Master Funds’ statements of operations.
 
Futures Contracts
 
The Master Funds use futures contracts in an attempt to take advantage of changes in the value of equities, commodities, interest rates, bonds and foreign currencies.
 
A futures contract represents a commitment for the future purchase or sale of an asset or cash settlement based on the value of an asset on a specified date.  The purchase and sale of futures contracts are executed on an exchange which requires margin deposits with a Futures Commission Merchant (“FCM”).  Subsequent payments are made or received by the Master Funds each day, depending on the daily fluctuations in the value of the contract. These changes in valuation are recorded for financial statement purposes as unrealized gains or losses by the Master Funds.  Relative to over-the-counter derivative financial instruments, futures contracts provide reduced counterparty risk to the Master Funds since futures are exchange-traded and the exchange’s clearinghouse guarantees the futures against default. However some non-U.S. exchanges are “principals’ markets” in which no common clearing facility exists and the Master Funds may look only to the clearing broker for performance of the contract.  The U.S. Commodity Exchange Act requires an FCM to segregate all funds received from such FCM’s customers in respect of regulated futures transactions. If the FCM were not to do so to the full extent required by law, the assets of the Master Funds might not be fully protected in the event of the bankruptcy or insolvency of the FCM. In that case, the Master Funds would be limited to recovering only a pro rata share of all available funds segregated on behalf of the FCM’s combined customer accounts, even though certain property specifically traceable to the Master Funds was held by the FCM.  In addition, in the event of bankruptcy or insolvency of an exchange or an affiliated clearing house, the Master Funds might experience a loss of funds deposited through its FCM as margin with such exchange or affiliated clearing house, the loss of unrealized profits on its open positions, and the loss of funds owed to it as realized profits on closed positions.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
 
Forward Contracts
 
The Master Funds enter into foreign currency and commodity forward contracts in an attempt to take advantage of changes in exchange rates and commodity prices.
 
Forward currency and commodities transactions are contracts or agreements for delivery of specific currencies and commodities or the cash equivalent value at a specified future date and an agreed upon price.  Forward contracts are not guaranteed by an exchange or clearing house and therefore the risks include the inability of counterparties to meet their obligations under the terms of the contracts as well as the risks associated with movements in fair value.
 
Swap Contracts
 
The Master Funds may enter into various swap contracts in an attempt to take advantage of changes in interest rates and asset values.  Swap contracts are not guaranteed by an exchange or an affiliated clearing house or regulated by any U.S. or foreign government authorities.  Failure of a counterparty to meet its obligation under the terms of the swap contract could result in the loss of any unrealized gains on open positions and force the Master Fund to cover its resale commitments, if any, at the current market price.  It may not be possible to dispose of or close out a swap position without the consent of the counterparty, and the Master Fund may not be able to enter into an offsetting contract in order to cover its risk. Swaps are subject to the International Swap and Derivative Association (“ISDA”) Master Agreements which generally require among other things, that a Master Fund maintain a predetermined level of net assets, and provide limits with respect to a decline in the Master Fund’s net asset value over 1-month, 3-month and 12-month periods. If a Master Fund were to violate such provisions, the counterparty to the swaps could demand liquidation of outstanding swap positions.
 
An interest rate swap contract is an agreement that obligates two parties to exchange a series of cash flows at specified intervals based upon or calculated by reference to changes in specified prices or rates for a specified notional amount of the underlying assets.  The payment flows are usually netted against each other, with the difference being paid by one party to another.
 
A total return swap contract is an agreement that obligates two parties to exchange cash flows calculated by reference to changes in specified prices or rates for a specified notional amount of the underlying assets.  The payment flows are usually netted against each other, with the difference being paid by one party to another.
 
During the term of the swaps, changes in value are recognized as unrealized gains or losses by marking the contracts to fair value.  Additionally, the Master Funds record a realized gain (loss) when a swap contract is terminated and when periodic payments are received or made at the end of each measurement period, but prior to termination.  The Master Funds determine the estimated fair value of all swaps in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
 
Options
 
The Master Funds may buy and sell covered and uncovered exchange traded and over-the-counter options on futures, foreign currencies, commodities, interest rates and equities to take advantage of the price movements of the financial instrument underlying the option or to hedge positions in the underlying assets.  Option contracts give one party the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell within a limited time or on a specified date, a financial instrument, commodity or currency at a contracted price.  Options may also be settled in cash, based on differentials between specified indices or prices.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
 
Options (continued)
 
The Master Funds are exposed to counterparty risk to the extent that a seller of an over-the-counter option does not meet its obligations under the terms of the option contract.  The maximum risk of loss to the Master Fund is the fair value of the contracts and the premiums paid to purchase its open option contracts. Relative to over-the-counter options, exchange traded options provide reduced counterparty risk to the Master Funds since the exchanges’ clearinghouse guarantees the option against default.
 
Indemnifications
 
In the normal course of business, the Master Funds, GCA, GCA II and GAIT enter into contracts that contain a variety of indemnifications. Such contracts include those with the Master Funds’ brokers and trading counterparties. GAIT’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown; however, GAIT has not had prior claims or losses with respect to such indemnifications and considers the risk of loss to be remote.
 
3. Investments in Master Funds
 
As of September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, GAIT invested in Master Funds, all of which were managed by the Manager. GAIT’s investments in these Master Funds, as well as investment objectives of each Master Fund, are summarized below. Master Funds in which GAIT invested 5% or more of its members’ capital are individually identified, while smaller investments are aggregated under the caption “Master Funds.”  All of the Master Funds and GAIT are related parties.   The Master Funds do not charge management or incentive fees and all offer monthly subscriptions and redemptions.

5. Capital Accounts
 
GAIT offers Class 0 Units and Class 2 Units (collectively, the “Units”). GAIT may issue additional classes in the future subject to different fees, expenses or other terms, or to invest in other investment programs or combinations of investment programs managed by the Manager. GAIT also has Management Units (“Class M units”) which are solely for the investment of the Manager.
 
A separate Capital Account is maintained for each member with respect to each Class of Units held by such member. The initial balance of each members’ Capital Account will equal the initial contribution to GAIT with respect to the Class to which such Capital Account relates. Each member’s Capital Account is increased by any additional subscription, and decreased by any redemption by such member of Units of such Class to which the Capital Account relates. All income and expenses of GAIT are allocated among the Capital Accounts of the members in proportion to the balance that each Capital Account bears to the balance of all Capital Accounts as of the beginning of such fiscal period.
 
Addition of Members and Managing Members
 
Units are available for subscription as of the first business day of each month upon at least three business days prior written notice.
 
Subscriptions
 
Units may be purchased at a price equal to the Net Asset Value per Unit of the relevant Class as of the immediately preceding Valuation Day, as defined in the LLC Agreement. There is no minimum subscription amount.
 
Redemptions
 
Units are not subject to any minimum holding period. Members may redeem Units at the Net Asset Value thereof as of the last business day of each month upon not less than three business days’ prior written notice to the administrator.

6. Fees
 
Advisory Fees
 
Each Class of GAIT other than Class M pays the Manager an advisory fee (the “Advisory Fee”) at an aggregate annual rate equal to 2% of the Net Asset Value of such Class. The Advisory Fee is payable monthly in arrears calculated as of the last business day of each month and any other date the Manager may permit, in its sole and absolute discretion, as of which any subscription or redemption is effected with respect to Units of such Class during the month.
 
Sponsor Fees
 
Each Class of GAIT other than Class M pays the Manager a sponsor fee (the “Sponsor Fee”) at an annual rate of 1% of its Net Asset Value, payable monthly in arrears, determined in the same manner as the Advisory Fee.
 
Incentive Allocation
 
At the end of each calendar quarter, the Manager will receive a special allocation of net profits (the “Incentive Allocation”) in an amount equal to 20% of the New High Net Trading Profits of each Class as defined in the LLC Agreement. The Incentive Allocation is also accrued and allocable on the date of redemption with respect to any Units that are redeemed prior to the end of a calendar quarter.
 
Brokerage Fees
 
Each Class of GAIT other than Class M pays the Manager a brokerage fee (the “Brokerage Fee”) at the annual rate specified in the table below. This Brokerage Fee is payable monthly in arrears calculated as of the last business day of each month in the same manner as the Advisory Fee.
 
Class
   
Annual Rate
 
         
Class 0
      2 %
Class 2
      4 %
 
In consideration of the Brokerage Fee, the Manager bears all of GAIT’s trading commissions (including exchange, clearing and regulatory fees relating to its trades), routine legal expenses, internal and external accounting, audit and tax preparation expenses, fees and expenses of an external or internal administrator, and expenses and costs of printing and mailing reports and notices, together with the costs incurred in connection with the organization of GAIT and GAIT’s continuous offering of Units. To the extent GAIT is allocated any of these expenses from the Master Funds in which it invests, the Manager will reimburse GAIT those amounts.  These reimbursements are included in other income in the statements of operations and managing member allocation.
 
Any portion of any of the above fees, including the Incentive Allocation may be paid by the Manager to third parties as compensation for selling activities in connection with GAIT.

7. Income Taxes
 
No provision for income taxes has been made in the accompanying financial statements, as members are individually responsible for reporting income or loss based upon their respective share of GAIT’s revenues and expenses for income tax purposes.
 
U.S. GAAP provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in the financial statements. U.S. GAAP requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing GAIT’s tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet a more-likely-than-not threshold would be recorded as a tax expense in the current year. The Manager has evaluated GAIT’s tax positions and has concluded that there are no significant tax positions requiring recognition, measurement or disclosure in the financial statements. The Manager is not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax expense will change materially in the next twelve months.
 
8. Related Party Transactions
 
The Manager, due to its relationship with its affiliates, may enter into certain related party transactions.

Total return is calculated for Class 0 and Class 2 units taken as a whole and has not been annualized. Total return is calculated as the change in total members’ capital, excluding that of the Managing Member, adjusted for subscriptions or redemptions during the year. An individual member’s return may vary from these returns based on the timing of capital transactions and the applicability of Advisory Fees, Brokerage Fees, Sponsor Fees and the Incentive Allocation. The net investment loss and total expense ratios (including Incentive Allocation) are calculated for the Class 0 and Class 2 units taken as a whole and include amounts from GAIT and amounts allocated from Master Funds. The computation of such ratios is based on the amount of net investment loss, total expenses and Incentive Allocation.  Net investment loss and total expense ratios are computed based upon the weighted average of members’ capital of GAIT, excluding that of the Managing Member, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009.
 
10.  Subsequent Events
 
The Fund had subscriptions of approximately $35.0 million and redemptions of approximately $3.8 million through November 15, 2010.  These amounts have not been included in the financial statements.

1. Organization and Business
 
Graham Alternative Investment Trading II LLC (“GAIT II”) was formed on July 16, 2008, commenced operations on January 4, 2009 and is organized as a Delaware Limited Liability Company. Graham Capital Management, L.P. (the “Managing Member” or “Manager”) is the managing member and the sole investment advisor. The Managing Member is registered as a Commodity Pool Operator and Commodity Trading Advisor with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission and is a member of the National Futures Association.
 
The investment objective of GAIT II is to achieve long-term capital appreciation through professionally managed trading through its investment in Graham K4D Trading Ltd.

(“SFE”), the Singapore International Monetary Exchange (“SIMEX”), the South African Exchange (“SAFEX”), the Tokyo International Financial Futures Exchange (“TIFFE”), the Tokyo Commodity Exchange (“TOCOM”) and the Tokyo Stock Exchange (“TSE”).
 
SEI Global Services, Inc. (“SEI”) is GAIT II’s independent administrator and transfer agent.  SEI is responsible for certain matters pertaining to the administration of GAIT II.
 
GAIT II will terminate on December 31, 2050 or at an earlier date if certain conditions occur as outlined in the Limited Liability Company Agreement (“LLC Agreement”) of the Fund.
 
Duties of the Managing Member
 
Subject to the terms and conditions of the LLC Agreement, the Managing Member has complete and exclusive responsibility for managing and administering the affairs of GAIT II and for directing the investment and reinvestment of the assets of GAIT II.
 
2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
 
These financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) and all amounts are stated in U.S. dollars. The preparation of these financial statements requires the Managing Member to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
 
Amounts included in the financial statements and accompanying notes related to September 30, 2010 and 2009 and the three and nine month periods then ended are unaudited.  Amounts included herein as of December 31, 2009 have been taken from the December 31, 2009 audited financial statements and accompanying notes of GAIT II.
 
In July 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued “The FASB Accounting Standards Codification and Hierarchy of Generally Accepted Accounting Principles” (the “Codification”). The Codification is the source of authoritative U.S. GAAP recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities. All existing accounting standard documents are superseded and all other accounting literature not included in the Codification is considered non-authoritative.  The adoption of the Codification does not impact GAIT II’s financial statements except for references made to authoritative accounting literature in the footnotes.
 
Cash and Cash Equivalents
 
GAIT II considers cash and cash equivalents to include all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when acquired. At December 31, 2009, this amount was primarily invested in overnight deposits with major U.S. financial institutions.
 
Investment in Graham K4D Trading Ltd.
 
GAIT II invests in K4D Trading which is managed by the Managing Member. This investment is valued in the accompanying statement of financial condition at fair value in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Gains and losses are allocated monthly by K4D Trading to GAIT II based upon GAIT II’s proportionate share of the net assets of K4D Trading and are included in the accompanying statements of operations and managing member allocation.
 
Fair Value
 
The fair value of GAIT II’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under U.S. GAAP, approximates the carrying amounts presented in the statements of financial condition. Changes in these carrying amounts are included in the statements of operations and managing member allocation.
 
GAIT II follows U.S. GAAP for fair value measurements, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and requires certain disclosures about fair value measurements.  U.S. GAAP uses a three-level hierarchy for fair value measurement based on the transparency and independence of inputs used in the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date.
 
The fair value hierarchy categorizes asset and liability positions into one of three levels, as summarized below, based on the inputs and assumptions used in deriving fair value.
 
 
Level 1 inputs are unadjusted closing or settle prices for such assets or liabilities as published by the primary exchange upon which they are traded.
 
Level 2 inputs include quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities obtained from independent brokers and/or market makers in each security.
 
Level 3 inputs are those which are considered unobservable and are significant in arriving at fair value.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
 
Fair Value (continued)
 
GAIT II reports the fair value of its investment related assets and liabilities in accordance with the hierarchy established under U.S. GAAP.  In accordance with this hierarchy, GAIT II’s investments in K4D Trading and Graham Cash Assets LLC (“GCA”) have been classified as Level 2 valuations based on the release of ASU 2009-12 in December 2009. As of September 30, 2010 and December 31, 2009, neither K4D Trading nor GCA held any Level 3 investments.
 
Derivative Instruments
 
In the normal course of business, the Master Fund utilizes derivative financial instruments in connection with its trading activities. Derivative instruments derive their value from underlying assets, indices, reference rates or a combination of these factors.  Investments in derivative financial instruments are subject to additional risks that can result in a loss of all or part of an investment.  The Master Fund’s derivative financial instruments are classified by the following primary underlying risks: interest rate, credit, foreign currency exchange rate, commodity price, and equity price risks. These risks can be in excess of the amounts recognized in the statement of financial condition. In addition, the Master Fund is also subject to additional counterparty risk should its counterparties fail to meet the terms of their contracts.  Management of counterparty risk involves a number of considerations, such as the financial profile of the counterparty, specific terms and duration of the contractual agreement, and the value of collateral held, if any. The Master Fund has established initial credit approval, credit limits, and collateral requirements and may reduce its exposure to any counterparties it deems necessary.  Trading in non-U.S. dollar denominated derivative instruments may subject the value of, and gains and losses associated with, such contracts to additional risks related to adverse changes in the applicable exchange rates. To the extent the Master Fund is deemed to be insolvent, all positions could be subject to liquidation.
 
The Master Fund records all its derivative financial instruments at fair value, which is derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP.  Unrealized gains and losses from these instruments are recorded based on changes in their fair value.  Realized gains and losses are recorded when the positions are closed.  All unrealized and realized gains and losses related to derivative financial instruments are included in net gain on investments in the Master Fund’s statement of operations.
 
Futures Contracts
 
The Master Fund uses futures contracts in an attempt to take advantage of changes in the value of equities, commodities, interest rates, bonds and foreign currencies.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued)
 
Futures contracts (continued)
 
A futures contract represents a commitment for the future purchase or sale of an asset or cash settlement based on the value of an asset on a specified date.  The purchase and sale of futures contracts are executed on an exchange which requires margin deposits with a Futures Commission Merchant (“FCM”).  Subsequent payments are made or received by the Master Fund each day, depending on the daily fluctuations in the value of the contract. These changes in valuation are recorded for financial statement purposes as unrealized gains or losses by the Master Fund.  Relative to over-the-counter derivative financial instruments, futures contracts provide reduced counterparty risk to the Master Fund since futures are exchange-traded and the exchange’s clearinghouse guarantees the futures against default. However some non-U.S. exchanges are “principals’ markets” in which no common clearing facility exists and the Master Fund may look only to the clearing broker for performance of the contract.  The U.S. Commodity Exchange Act requires an FCM to segregate all funds received from such FCM’s customers in respect of regulated futures transactions. If the FCM were not to do so to the full extent required by law, the assets of the Master Fund might not be fully protected in the event of the bankruptcy or insolvency of the FCM. In that case, the Master Fund would be limited to recovering only a pro rata share of all available funds segregated on behalf of the FCM’s combined customer accounts, even though certain property specifically traceable to the Master Fund was held by the FCM.  In addition, in the event of bankruptcy or insolvency of an exchange or an affiliated clearing house, the Master Fund might experience a loss of funds deposited through its FCM as margin with such exchange or affiliated clearing house, the loss of unrealized profits on its open positions, and the loss of funds owed to it as realized profits on closed positions.
 
Forward Contracts
 
The Master Fund enters into foreign currency and commodity forward contracts in an attempt to take advantage of changes in exchange rates and commodity prices.
 
Forward currency and commodities transactions are contracts or agreements for delivery of specific currencies and commodities or the cash equivalent value at a specified future date and an agreed upon price.  Forward contracts are not guaranteed by an exchange or clearing house and therefore the risks include the inability of counterparties to meet their obligations under the terms of the contracts as well as the risks associated with movements in fair value.
 
Swap Contracts
 
The Master Fund may enter into various swap contracts.  Swap contracts are not guaranteed by an exchange or an affiliated clearing house or regulated by any U.S. or foreign government authorities.  Failure of a counterparty to meet its obligation under the terms of the swap contract could result in the loss of any unrealized gains on open positions and force the Master Fund to cover its resale commitments, if any, at the current market price.  It may not be possible to dispose of or close out a swap position without the consent of the counterparty, and the Master Fund may not be able to enter into an offsetting contract in order to cover its risk. Swaps are subject to the International Swap and Derivative Association (“ISDA”) Master Agreements which generally require among other things, that a Master Fund maintain a predetermined level of net assets, and provide limits with respect to a decline in the Master Fund’s net asset value over 1-month, 3-month and 12-month periods. If a Master Fund were to violate such provisions, the counterparty to the swaps could demand liquidation of outstanding swap positions.
 
An interest rate swap contract is an agreement that obligates two parties to exchange a series of cash flows at specified intervals based upon or calculated by reference to changes in specified prices or rates for a specified notional amount of the underlying assets.  The payment flows are usually netted against each other, with the difference being paid by one party to another.

Swap Contracts (continued)
 
A total return swap contract is an agreement that obligates two parties to exchange cash flows calculated by reference to changes in specified prices or rates for a specified notional amount of the underlying assets.  The payment flows are usually netted against each other, with the difference being paid by one party to another.
 
During the term of the swaps, changes in value are recognized as unrealized gains or losses by marking the contracts to fair value.  Additionally, the Master Fund records a realized gain (loss) when a swap contract is terminated and when periodic payments are received or made at the end of each measurement period, but prior to termination.  The Master Fund determines the estimated fair value of all swaps in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
 
Options
 
The Master Fund may buy and sell covered and uncovered exchange traded and over-the-counter options on futures, foreign currencies, commodities, interest rates and equities to take advantage of the price movements of the financial instrument underlying the option or to hedge positions in the underlying assets.  Option contracts give one party the right, but not the obligation, to buy or sell within a limited time or on a specified date, a financial instrument, commodity or currency at a contracted price.  Options may also be settled in cash, based on differentials between specified indices or prices.
 
The Master Fund is exposed to counterparty risk to the extent that a seller of an over-the-counter option does not meet its obligations under the terms of the option contract.  The maximum risk of loss to the Master Fund is the fair value of the contracts and the premiums paid to purchase its open option contracts. Relative to over-the-counter options, exchange traded options provide reduced counterparty risk to the Master Fund since the exchanges’ clearinghouse guarantees the option against default.
 
Indemnifications
 
In the normal course of business, the Master Fund, GCA, GCA II and GAIT II enter into contracts that contain a variety of indemnifications. Such contracts include those with the Master Fund’s brokers and trading counterparties. GAIT II’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown; however, GAIT II has not had prior claims or losses with respect to such indemnifications and considers the risk of loss to be remote.

5. Capital Accounts
 
GAIT II offers Class 0 Units and Class 2 Units (collectively, the “Units”). GAIT II may issue additional classes in the future subject to different fees, expenses or other terms, or to invest in other investment programs or combinations of investment programs managed by the Manager. GAIT II also has Management Units (“Class M units”) which are solely for the investment of the Manager.
 
A separate Capital Account is maintained for each member with respect to each Class of Units held by such member. The initial balance of each members’ Capital Account will equal the initial contribution to GAIT II with respect to the Class to which such Capital Account relates. Each member’s Capital Account is increased by any additional subscription, and decreased by any redemption by such member of Units of such Class to which the Capital Account relates. All income and expenses of GAIT II are allocated among the members’ Capital Accounts in proportion to the balance that each Capital Account bears to the balance of all Capital Accounts as of the beginning of such fiscal period.
 
Addition of Members and Managing Members
 
Units are available for subscription as of the first business day of each month upon at least three business days prior written notice.
 
Subscriptions
 
Units may be purchased at a price equal to the Net Asset Value per Unit of the relevant Class as of the immediately preceding Valuation Day, as defined in the LLC Agreement. There is no minimum subscription amount.
 
Redemptions
 
Units are not subject to any minimum holding period. Members may redeem Units at the Net Asset Value thereof as of the last business day of each month upon not less than three business days’ prior written notice to the administrator.

6. Fees
 
Advisory Fees
 
Each Class of GAIT II other than Class M pays the Manager an advisory fee (the “Advisory Fee”) at an aggregate annual rate equal to 2% of the Net Asset Value of such Class. The Advisory Fee is payable monthly in arrears calculated as of the last business day of each month and any other date the Manager may permit, in its sole and absolute discretion, as of which any subscription or redemption is effected with respect to Units of such Class during the month.
 
Sponsor Fees
 
Each Class of GAIT II other than Class M pays the Manager a sponsor fee (the “Sponsor Fee”) at an annual rate of 1% of its Net Asset Value, payable monthly in arrears, determined in the same manner as the Advisory Fee.
 
Incentive Allocation
 
At the end of each calendar quarter, the Manager will receive a special allocation of net profits (the “Incentive Allocation”) in an amount equal to 20% of the New High Net Trading Profits of each Class as defined in the LLC Agreement. The Incentive Allocation is also accrued and allocable on the date of redemption with respect to any Units that are redeemed prior to the end of a calendar quarter.
 
Brokerage Fees
 
Each Class of GAIT II other than Class M pays the Manager a brokerage fee (the “Brokerage Fee”) at the annual rate specified in the table below. This Brokerage Fee is payable monthly in arrears calculated as of the last business day of each month in the same manner as the Advisory Fee.
 
Class    
Annual Rate
 
         
Class 0
      2 %
Class 2
      4 %
 
In consideration of the Brokerage Fee, the Manager bears all of GAIT II’s trading commissions (including exchange, clearing and regulatory fees relating to its trades), routine legal expenses, internal and external accounting, audit and tax preparation expenses, fees and expenses of an external or internal administrator, and expenses and costs of printing and mailing reports and notices, together with the costs incurred in connection with the organization of GAIT II and GAIT II’s continuous offering of Units. To the extent GAIT II is allocated any of these expenses from the Master Fund, the Manager will reimburse GAIT II those amounts.  This reimbursement is included in other income in the statement of operations and managing member allocation.
 
Any portion of any of the above fees, including the Incentive Allocation may be paid by the Manager to third parties as compensation for selling activities in connection with GAIT II.

7. Income Taxes
 
No provision for income taxes has been made in the accompanying financial statements, as members are individually responsible for reporting income or loss based upon their respective share of GAIT II’s revenues and expenses for income tax purposes.
 
U.S. GAAP provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in the financial statements. U.S. GAAP requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing GAIT II’s tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax positions not deemed to meet a more-likely-than-not threshold would be recorded as a tax expense in the current year. The Manager has evaluated GAIT II’s tax positions and has concluded that there are no significant tax positions requiring recognition, measurement or disclosure in the financial statements. The Manager is not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax expense will change materially in the next twelve months.

8. Related Party Transactions

The Manager, due to its relationship with its affiliates, may enter into certain related party transactions.

Total return is calculated for Class 0 and Class 2 units taken as a whole and has not been annualized. Total return is calculated as the change in total members’ capital, excluding that of the Managing Member, adjusted for subscriptions or redemptions during the year. An individual member’s return may vary from these returns based on the timing of capital transactions and the applicability of Advisory Fees, Brokerage Fees, Sponsor Fees, and the Incentive Allocation. The net investment loss and total expense ratios (including Incentive Allocation) are calculated for the Class 0 and Class 2 units taken as a whole and include amounts from GAIT II and amounts allocated from the Master Fund. The computation of such ratios is based on the amount of net investment loss, expenses and Incentive Allocation. Net investment loss and total expense ratios are computed based upon the weighted average of members’ capital of GAIT II, excluding that of the Managing Member, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009.
 
10. Subsequent Events
 
The Fund had subscriptions of approximately $2.4 million and redemptions of approximately $0.6 million through November 15, 2010.  These amounts have not been included in the financial statements.

Blended Strategies Portfolio

2010 Summary

For the three months ended September 30, 2010, the portfolio experienced net trading gains of $3,994,406 attributable to the following sectors:

       
Agriculture
  $ (285,354 )
Energy
    (102,496 )
Foreign exchange
    1,398,681  
Interest rates
    2,822,852  
Metals
    1,355,333  
Softs
    319,270  
Stock index
    (1,513,880 )
    $ 3,994,406  
 
The U.S. dollar’s continued depreciation on the back of growing expectations for quantitative easing and the appreciation of commodity currencies especially those with ties to gold, notably Australian dollar, Canadian dollar and South African rand, contributed to significant gains in foreign currency trading.  The expectation of quantitative easing and the Federal Reserve’s anticipated, and later in the quarter confirmed, accommodative monetary policy stance led to gains in short term interest rate trading.   Gains were also recognized in European interest rates as a weakened global growth outlook drove investors to flock to the safety of government securities during the quarter lowering yields which benefitted the portfolio.  The portfolio was able to benefit from the rise in prices in global metals driven by both economic growth concerns, especially in gold which crept closer to its all time high prices, as well as in base metals where a favorable outlook in industrial activity and increased demand from China led to gains.  Trading results in commodities were mixed throughout the quarter as trends coming into the quarter reversed in the early part of the quarter as projections for harvests in some of the staple crops turned below initial expectations and prices were additionally affected by economic growth sentiment while other markets continued to follow trends leading to overall gains in softs and losses in agriculture.  Trading in energy was mixed as gains in calendar spread positions in crude oil and heating oil generated profits which were offset by losses on outright positions, most notably natural gas as the energy markets exhibited volatile price swings throughout the period.  Trading in stock indices generated losses during the period as the markets exhibited significant volatility predominantly in U.S. and European markets with a sharp rally in July followed by a sell off in August on the back of economic growth concerns reversing again in September, as an appetite for risk reappeared.

Brokerage, Advisory and Sponsor Fees are calculated as a percentage of the Fund’s net asset value as of the end of each month and are affected by trading performance, interest income, subscriptions into and redemptions out of the Fund.  Accordingly, the fluctuations in these amounts are directly correlated to the changes in net asset value which are discussed in detail herein.

For the three months ended September 30, 2010, Brokerage Fees increased by $243,526 or 49.3%, Advisory Fees increased by $218,496 or 52.2% and Sponsor Fees increased by $109,248 or 52.2% in the Blended Strategies Portfolio over the corresponding period of the preceding year.   These increases are all attributable to higher net assets of the portfolio resulting from subscriptions and a net gain for the period,  partially offset by redemptions. During the same period interest income increased by $161,505 or 99.4% predominantly due to the increase in net assets discussed above.  Interest was earned on free cash at an average annualized yield of 0.61% for the three months ended September 30, 2010 compared to 0.62% for the same period in 2009.
 
 
95


The Incentive Allocation is based on the New High Net Trading Profits of the portfolio.  For the three months ended September 30, 2010, the Incentive Allocation increased by $4,436, or 1.1%, when compared to the same period of 2009.  This was the result of a higher net gain before incentive allocation for the three months ended September 30, 2010 when compared to 2009.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, the Blended Strategies Portfolio experienced net trading gains of $5,710,573 attributable to the following sectors:

Agriculture
  $ (369,367 )
Energy
    (1,571,158 )
Foreign exchange
    3,486,377  
Interest rates
    7,854,651

Softs
    (399,533 )
Stock index
    (3,816,175 )
    $ 5,710,573  

The portfolio experienced overall gains this year as economic concerns ebbed and flowed creating significant volatility in most markets.  Consistent gains were posted in interest rates as beginning of the year concerns about Greece and the European Union as well as the efforts of the U.S. Federal Reserve to be accommodative and stimulate growth, led to a general trend towards flatter yield curves throughout the year in the U.S. and Europe.  The portfolio was able to generate gains in foreign currency during high volatility as early year concerns about Greece, Portugal, Ireland and Spain led to declines in the Euro versus the U.S. dollar in the early part of the year only to reverse more recently as the Federal Reserve’s continued efforts to stimulate growth coupled with a more stable outlook for Europe has driven a devaluation of the dollar versus the Euro and Japanese yen.  The portfolio was able to generate gains in trading in many of the major commodity currencies such as Australian dollar and Canadian dollar as these strengthened  against the U.S. dollar on the heels of the increase in value of gold throughout the year.  Trading in commodities generated mixed results for the year, as many commodities alternated between trading highly correlated to the U.S. dollar to trading on fundamental news creating several instances of abrupt price reversals throughout the year leading to overall losses with one standout being gains in gold which crept towards all time price highs in the third quarter.  Trading in energy generated losses as dramatic price movements predominantly in the second quarter moved against the portfolio’s positions notably in crude and natural gas as the uneasiness in the markets about the global growth potential, exacerbated by the May “flash crash” in U.S. stock markets, triggered a flight to quality and adverse price moves for the portfolio.  Losses in energies were partially offset by gains in calendar spread positions in crude oil and heating oil.  Trading in stock indices generated losses during the year as the gyrations in economic sentiment resulted in, at times, abrupt volatility in the major European and U.S. stock markets highlighted by the May “flash crash”.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, Brokerage Fees increased by $607,016 or 42.8%, Advisory Fees increased by $522,539 or 42.9% and Sponsor Fees increased by $261,271 or 42.9% in the Blended Strategies Portfolio over the corresponding period of the preceding year.  These increases are all attributable to higher net assets of the portfolio resulting from subscriptions and a net gain for the period, partially offset by redemptions. During the same period interest income increased by $501,347 or 119.2% predominantly due to the increase in net assets discussed above.  Interest was earned on free cash at an average annualized yield of 0.61% for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to 0.60% for the same period in 2009.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, the Incentive Allocation decreased by $1,828 or -0.5%, in the portfolio over the corresponding period of the preceding year due to lower net gain before incentive allocation partially offset by an increase in interest income.

2009 Summary

For the three months ended September 30, 2009, the Blended Strategies Portfolio experienced net trading gains of $4,017,164 attributable to the following sectors:

Agriculture
  $ 201,999  
Energy
    (623,471 )
Foreign exchange
    202,217

Softs
    558,482  
Stock index
    3,419,935  
    $ 4,017,164  
 
The portfolio recorded gains in the quarter as global stock indices began an upward trend in July based on positive economic news and continued to rise steadily throughout the quarter.  Gains were also recognized in commodity markets such as metals and softs led by gains in sugar which reached all time highs during the quarter.  These gains were partially offset by losses in the energy markets where the portfolio experienced some losses in crude oil as price volatility increased driven by weak demand data and geopolitical tension.  This was also evidenced in natural gas which experienced some weakness in the beginning of the quarter then sharply reversed in the last month of the quarter resulting in losses.  The portfolio also experienced losses in interest rates as gains in short term interest rates were offset by losses in the longer end of the curve led by losses in European interest rate markets.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2009, the Blended Strategies Portfolio experienced net trading gains of $4,701,317 attributable to the following sectors:

Agriculture
  $ (15,969 )
Energy
    (549,711 )
Foreign exchange
    1,580,311

Softs
    394,199  
Stock index
    3,255,456  
    $ 4,701,317  
 
The portfolio experienced volatility throughout the first nine months of the year as macro trends appeared and reversed significantly resulting in mixed results in several sectors.  The portfolio recorded overall gains in stock indices as global equity prices plummeted in the first portion of the first quarter on the heels of heightened recessionary fears. This situation persisted into mid March when earning reports from large U.S. financials as well as the prospect of further stimulus funds to be released, sparked a global stock market rally.  The general upward trend in the equity markets persisted through the third quarter.   The portfolio was able to recoup losses in its short stock positions when the turnaround began by reversing its position in late March and benefitting from the continued upward trend in indices.  The portfolio posted gains in currency trading in each quarter despite the volatility in the markets.  The U.S. dollar strengthened throughout the first part of the year as stock markets weakened on recessionary fears only to reverse course and weaken as the stock market gained momentum through the summer.  The discretionary portion of the portfolio was able to take advantage in short term trading opportunities while the systematic portion was able to post gains on longer term trends in the currency markets.  The portfolio was able to recognize gains in several commodities markets as trends developed in the later portion of the year, notably, sugar rising to an all time high in the third quarter as well as increasing prices in base metals in the third quarter. These gains were offset by losses experienced in energy and interest rates.  The energy markets began the year with some weakness following the recessionary concerns of the markets, as well as the U.S. dollar strength.  This trend abruptly reversed late in the first quarter as the U.S. dollar weakened and global stock market gains provided increased abatement of the recessionary concerns.  The scenario repeated itself late in the third quarter as weakness in natural gas abruptly reversed late in the quarter resulting in losses for the portfolio.  The portfolio posted losses in interest rates overall with mixed results throughout the year as the changing sentiment on the economies of both the U.S. and Europe led to yield curve compression and expansion during the year.

The U.S. dollar’s continued depreciation on the back of growing expectations for quantitative easing contributed to significant gains in foreign currency trading.  The expectation of quantitative easing coupled with a weakened global growth outlook, which drove investors toward the safety of government securities during the quarter, also generated gains in interest rate trading.  The portfolio was able to benefit from the rise in prices in global metals driven by both economic growth concerns especially in gold which crept closer to its all time high prices as well as in base metals where a favorable outlook in industrial activity and increased demand from China led to gains.  Trading results in commodities were mixed throughout the quarter as trends coming into the quarter reversed in the early part of the quarter as projections for harvests in some of the staple crops turned below initial expectations and prices were additionally affected by economic growth sentiment while other markets continued to follow trends leading to overall gains in softs and losses in agriculture and energies.  Trading in stock indices generated losses during the period as the markets exhibited significant volatility predominantly in U.S. and European markets with a sharp rally in July followed by a sell off in August on the back of economic growth concerns reversing again in September, as an appetite for risk reappeared.

Brokerage, Advisory and Sponsor Fees are calculated as a percentage of the Fund’s net asset value as of the end of each month and are affected by trading performance, interest income, subscriptions into and redemptions out of the Fund.  Accordingly, the fluctuations in these amounts are directly correlated to the changes in net asset value, which are discussed in detail herein.

For the three months ended September 30, 2010, Brokerage Fees increased by $89,946 or 385.1%, Advisory Fees increased by $66,872 or 363.0% and Sponsor Fees increased by $33,437 or 363.0% in the Blended Strategies Portfolio over the corresponding period of the preceding year.   These increases are all attributable to higher net assets of the portfolio resulting from subscriptions and a net gain for the period, partially offset by redemptions. During the same period interest income increased by $36,383 or 543.0% predominantly due to the increase in net assets discussed above.  Interest was earned on free cash at an average annualized yield of 0.61% for the three months ended September 30, 2010 compared to 0.62% for the same period in 2009.

The Incentive Allocation is based on the New High Net Trading Profits of the portfolio for the period. For the three months ended September 30, 2010 there was no Incentive Allocation earned despite the portfolio’s profitability, due to the loss carryforward at the beginning of the quarter.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, the Systematic Strategies Portfolio experienced net trading gains of $638,742 attributable to the following sectors:

The portfolio experienced overall gains this year as economic concerns ebbed and flowed creating significant volatility in most markets.  Consistent gains were posted in interest rates as beginning of the year concerns about Greece and the European Union as well as the efforts of the U.S. Federal Reserve to be accommodative and stimulate growth, led to a general trend in lower yields throughout the year in both the U.S. and Europe.  The portfolio was able to generate gains in foreign currency during high volatility as early year concerns about Greece, Portugal, Ireland and Spain led to declines in the Euro against the U.S. dollar early in the year.  This trend later reversed as the Federal Reserve’s continued efforts to stimulate growth, coupled with a more stable outlook for Europe, has driven a devaluation of the U.S. dollar versus the Euro and Japanese yen as well as several other more commodity linked currencies such as the Australian dollar.  Trading in commodities generated mixed results for the year as many commodities alternated between trading highly correlated to the U.S. dollar and trading on fundamental news creating several instances of abrupt price reversals throughout the year leading to overall losses, with one exception being gold which crept towards all time price highs in the third quarter.  Trading in energy generated losses as dramatic price movements predominantly in the second quarter moved against the portfolio positions notably in crude and natural gas as the uneasiness in the markets about the global growth potential exacerbated by the May “flash crash” in U.S. stock markets triggered a flight to quality and adverse price moves for the portfolio.  Trading in stock indices generated losses during the year as the gyrations in economic sentiment resulted in, at times, abrupt volatility in the major European and U.S. stock markets highlighted by the May “flash crash”.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2010, Brokerage Fees increased by $237,299 or 996.8%, Advisory Fees increased by $179,557 or 959.6% and Sponsor Fees increased by $89,779 or 959.6% in the Systematic Strategies Portfolio over the corresponding period of the preceding year.  These increases are all attributable to higher net assets of the portfolio resulting from subscriptions and a net gain for the period, partially offset by redemptions. During the same period interest income increased by $95,091 or 1,405.2% predominantly due to the increase in net assets discussed above.  Interest was earned on free cash at an average annualized yield of 0.61% for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 compared to 0.60% for the same period in 2009.

2009 Summary

For the three months ended September 30, 2009, the Systematic Strategies Portfolio experienced net trading gains of $389,063 attributable to the following sectors:

Agriculture
  $ 21,511  
Energy
    (53,726 )

    $ 389,063  

The portfolio recorded gains in the quarter in U.S. and European stock indices as U.S. jobless claims improved during July and positive second quarter earnings in the finance and technology sector above estimates helped spur a rally.  Despite volatility in the markets during the quarter, the portfolio was able to post consistent gains in U.S. equities.  Similarly in Europe and UK equities, strong retail sales reports early in the quarter pushed European stock indices higher and the rally gained momentum behind the dovish interest rate environment in the UK and Europe as well as signs of budding growth on the continent.  Gains were also recognized in currency trading as general U.S. dollar weakness prevailed during the quarter providing opportunity for gains against many currencies.  Positive returns were also registered in commodities including softs, metals and agriculture markets most notably in sugar which hit an all time high during the quarter as well as in base metals which also experienced increased prices.  Gains were offset with losses in interest rates and energies as the dovish interest rate environment led to losses on European interest rate trades and a late quarter rally in natural gas which reversed its course from long standing weakness.

The portfolio experienced volatility throughout the first nine months of the year as macro trends appeared and reversed significantly this year resulting in mixed results in several sectors.  The portfolio recorded overall gains in stock indices as global equity prices plummeted in the first portion of the first quarter on the heels of heightened recessionary fears. This situation persisted into mid March when earnings reports from large U.S. financials as well as the prospect of further stimulus funds to be released sparked a global stock market rally.  The general upward trend in the equity markets persisted through the third quarter.   The portfolio was able to recoup losses in its short stock positions when the turnaround began by reversing its position in late March and benefitting from the continued upward trend in indices.  Similar volatility was experienced in currency trading as the U.S. dollar strengthened in the first part of the year and the stock markets weakened, only to reverse course and weaken as the stock markets gained momentum in the second part of the year.  The portfolio was able to post overall gains in its currency trading as it was able to profit in both environments.  The portfolio was able to recognize gains in several commodities markets as trends developed in the later portion of the year, notably sugar rising to an all time high in the third quarter as well as increasing prices in base metals in the third quarter.  These gains were offset by losses experienced in energy and interest rates.  The energy markets began the year with some weakness following the recessionary concerns of the markets as well as the U.S. dollar strength.  This trend abruptly reversed late in the first quarter as the U.S. dollar weakened and global stock market gains provided increased abatement of the recessionary concerns.  The scenario repeated itself late in the third quarter as weakness in natural gas abruptly reversed late in the quarter resulting in losses for the portfolio.  Losses in interest rates were recognized on the reversal of sentiment as well as safe haven buying which led to gains in the beginning of the first quarter reversed late in the first quarter affecting the portfolios performance.  This occurred again late in the second quarter and into the third quarter as strong selling in the short end of the yield curve on the back of smaller than expected May U.S. payrolls data led to losses for the portfolio.

Variables Affecting Performance

The Fund’s performance is affected by net profitability resulting from the trading operations of the Master Funds, the fees charged by the Fund, and interest income earned on cash and cash equivalents.   The Master Funds acquire and liquidate long and short positions in futures contracts, forwards contracts, spot currency contracts and associated derivative instruments such as options and swaps.  These instruments are carried at fair value, which is heavily influenced by a wide variety of factors including but not limited to, the level and volatility of exchange rates, interest rates, equity prices, and commodity prices as well as global macro political events.  These factors generate market movements affecting the fair value of these instruments and in turn the net gains and losses allocated from the Master Funds.

Brokerage, Advisory and Sponsor Fees are calculated based on a percentage of the Fund’s net asset value.  Changes in the net assets of the Fund resulting from subscriptions, redemptions, interest and trading profits allocated from the Master Funds can therefore have a material impact in the fee expense of the Fund.

A portion of the assets of the Fund is held in cash and cash equivalents.  Changes in the net assets of the Fund as well as changes in the interest rates earned on these investments can have a material impact on interest income earned.

(ii)           Liquidity
 
A portion of the Fund’s assets is generally held as cash or cash equivalents, which are used to margin the Fund’s investments.  It is expected that the average margin the Fund will be required to post to support the Fund’s trading may range between 10% and 30% of the Fund’s total assets, which will be segregated or secured by the futures brokers in accordance with the CEA and with CFTC regulations or be maintained on deposit with over-the-counter counterparties.  In exceptional market conditions, this amount could increase.  The Master Funds are subject to margin calls on a constant daily and intra-day basis, whether in connection with initiating new investment positions or as a result of changes in the value of current investment positions.  These margin requirements are met through the posting of additional margin with the applicable futures or OTC clearing broker.  The Manager generally expresses its margin requirements for the portfolios in terms of the aggregate of the margin requirements plus the net option premium costs for the underlying strategies as a percentage of net assets.  The following table shows these amounts as of the date indicated:

      
Blended Strategies Portfolio
   
Systematic Strategies Portfolio
 
September 30, 2010
    11.53 %     13.70 %
                 
December 31, 2009
    5.34 %     9.18 %
                 
September 30, 2009
    10.37 %     17.55 %
 
Other than any potential market-imposed limitations on liquidity, the Fund’s assets are highly liquid and are expected to remain so.  Market-imposed limitations, when they occur, can be due to limited open interest in certain futures markets or to daily price fluctuation limits, which are inherent in the Fund’s futures trading.  Through September 30, 2010, the Fund experienced no meaningful periods of illiquidity in any of the markets traded by the Manager on behalf of the Fund.

(iii)           Capital Resources
 
The Fund raises additional capital only through the sale of Units and capital is increased through trading profits (if any) and interest income.  The Fund may borrow money from brokers or their affiliates and other lenders. Units may be offered for sale as of the beginning, and may be redeemed as of the end, of each month.  The amount of capital raised for the Fund should not have a significant impact on its operations, as the Fund has no significant capital expenditure or working capital requirements other than for monies to pay trading losses, brokerage commissions and expenses. 
 
 
103

 
            The Fund participates in the speculative trading of commodity futures contracts, substantially all of which are subject to margin requirements.  The minimum amount of margin required for each contract is set from time to time in response to various market factors by the respective exchanges.  Further, the Fund’s brokers may require margin in excess of minimum exchange requirements.  The Fund bears the risk of financial failure of the brokers through which it clears trades and maintains margin in respect of any such trades and of its counterparties for its foreign exchange and swap trades with whom it also maintains margin.

(iv)           Critical Accounting Policies

Use of Estimates – The Fund’s financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”) and all amounts are stated in U.S. dollars. The preparation of the financial statements requires the Manager to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and accompanying notes.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.  The Fund’s significant accounting policies are described in detail in Note 2 of the financial statements.
 
Fair Value Measurement - The Fund follows U.S. GAAP for fair value measurements, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and requires certain disclosures about fair value measurements.  U.S. GAAP uses a three-level hierarchy for fair value measurement based on the transparency and independence of inputs used in the valuation of an asset or liability as of the measurement date.  The Fund reports the fair value of its investment-related assets and liabilities in accordance with the hierarchy established under U.S. GAAP.
 
The Fund records its investments in the GAIT Funds at fair value in accordance with U.S. GAAP.  In determining its net asset value, each GAIT Fund records its investments in Master Funds at fair value in accordance with U.S. GAAP.  The Fund records its proportionate share of the GAIT Funds’ investment income and loss, expenses, fees, and realized and unrealized gains and losses on a monthly basis.  Purchases and sales of units in the GAIT Funds are recorded on a trade date basis.  The accounting policies of the GAIT Funds are described in their attached respective financial statements.
 
The Master Funds record all their financial instruments at fair value, which is derived in accordance with U.S. GAAP.  Unrealized gains and losses from these instruments are recorded based on changes in their fair value.  Realized gains and losses are recorded when the positions are closed.  All unrealized and realized gains and losses related to derivative financial instruments are included in net gain (loss) on investments in the Master Funds’ statements of operations.
 
Cash Assets - The GAIT Funds invest a portion of their excess liquidity in Cash Assets, an entity for which the Manager is also the sole investment advisor.  The financial information of Cash Assets is included in the notes to the Financial Statements of the GAIT Funds.
 
Statement of Operations - As discussed under Item 1, the Fund offers Class 0 and Class 2 units of the Blended Strategies Portfolio and the Systematic Strategies Portfolio.  Class 0 and Class 2 units within each portfolio differ only with respect to their fees.  The Blended Strategies and Systematic Strategies Portfolios differ with respect to the underlying funds in which they invest. All items of gain, loss, income and expense of the Fund are specifically and directly allocated to each portfolio from the underlying Master Funds.  The Fund presents a combined statement of operations which encompasses the amounts applicable to the Blended and Systematic Strategies Portfolios.
 
 
104

 
Income Taxes - No provision for income taxes has been made in the Fund’s financial statements, as each member is responsible for reporting income or loss based upon the member’s respective share of the Fund’s revenues and expenses for income tax purposes.
 
U.S. GAAP provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in the financial statements.  U.S. GAAP requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Fund’s tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority.  Tax positions not deemed to meet a more-likely-than-not threshold would be recorded as a tax expense in the current year.  The Manager has evaluated the Fund’s tax positions and has concluded that there are no significant tax positions requiring recognition, measurement or disclosure in the financial statements.  The Manager is not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax expense will change materially in the next twelve months.  
 
(v)           Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

The Fund does not engage in off-balance sheet arrangements with other entities.

          The Advisor’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Fund’s disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as of September 30, 2010.   Based on that evaluation, the Advisor’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the Fund’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of September 30, 2010. 
 
There were no changes to the Fund’s internal controls over financial reporting during the third quarter of 2010 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Fund’s internal controls over financial reporting.
