- 12 - Item 7. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Liquidity. The Partnership deposits its assets with Morgan Stanley DW (through March 31, 2007), MS&Co., and MSIP as commodity brokers in separate futures, forwards, and options trading accounts established for each Trading Advisor. Such assets are used as margin to engage in trading and may be used as margin solely for the Partnership?s trading. The assets are held in either non-interest bearing bank accounts or in securities and instruments permitted by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission for investment of customer segregated or secured funds. Since the Partnership?s sole purpose is to trade in futures, forwards, and options, it is expected that the Partnership will continue to own such liquid assets for margin purposes. The Partnership?s investment in futures, forwards, and options may, from time to time, be illiquid. Most U.S. futures exchanges limit fluctuations in prices during a single day by regulations referred to as ?daily price fluctuations limits? or ?daily limits?. Trades may not be executed at prices beyond the daily limit. If the price for a particular futures or options contract has increased or decreased by an amount equal to the daily limit, positions in that futures or options contract can neither be taken nor liquidated unless traders are willing to effect trades at or - 13 - within the limit. Futures prices have occasionally moved the daily limit for several consecutive days with little or no trading. These market conditions could prevent the Partnership from promptly liquidating its futures or options contracts and result in restrictions on redemptions. There is no limitation on daily price moves in trading forward contracts on foreign currencies. The markets for some world currencies have low trading volume and are illiquid, which may prevent the Partnership from trading in potentially profitable markets or prevent the Partnership from promptly liquidating unfavorable positions in such markets, subjecting it to substantial losses. Either of these market conditions could result in restrictions on redemptions. For the periods covered by this report, illiquidity has not materially affected the Partnership?s assets. There are no known material trends, demands, commitments, events, or uncertainties at the present time that are reasonably likely to result in the Partnership?s liquidity increasing or decreasing in any material way. Capital Resources. The Partnership does not have, nor does it expect to have, any capital assets. Redemptions, exchanges, and - 14 - sales of Units in the future will affect the amount of funds available for investments in futures, forwards, and options in subsequent periods. It is not possible to estimate the amount, and therefore the impact, of future inflows and outflows of Units. There are no known material trends, favorable or unfavorable, that would affect, nor any expected material changes to, the Partnership?s capital resource arrangements at the present time. Results of Operations General. The Partnership's results depend on the Trading Advisors and the ability of each Trading Advisor?s trading program to take advantage of price movements in the futures, forwards, and options markets. The following presents a summary of the Partnership's operations for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2007, and a general discussion of its trading activities during each period. It is important to note, however, that the Trading Advisors trade in various markets at different times and that prior activity in a particular market does not mean that such market will be actively traded by the Trading Advisors or will be profitable in the future. Consequently, the results of operations of the Partnership are difficult to discuss other than in the context of the Trading Advisors' trading activities on behalf of the Partnership during the period in question. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. - 15 - The Partnership?s results of operations set forth in the Financial Statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which require the use of certain accounting policies that affect the amounts reported in these Financial Statements, including the following: The contracts the Partnership trades are accounted for on a trade-date basis and marked to market on a daily basis. The difference between their cost and market value is recorded on the Statements of Operations as ?Net change in unrealized trading profit (loss)? for open (unrealized) contracts, and recorded as ?Realized trading profit (loss)? when open positions are closed out. The sum of these amounts, along with the ?Proceeds from Litigation Settlement?, constitutes the Partnership?s trading results. The market value of a futures contract is the settlement price on the exchange on which that futures contract is traded on a particular day. The value of a foreign currency forward contract is based on the spot rate as of the close of business. Interest income, as well as management fees, incentive fees, and brokerage fees expenses of the Partnership are recorded on an accrual basis. Demeter believes that, based on the nature of the operations of the Partnership, no assumptions relating to the application of critical accounting policies other than those presently used could reasonably affect reported amounts. - 16 - The Partnership recorded total trading results including interest income totaling $84,240,950 and expenses totaling $46,320,807, resulting in net income of $37,920,143 for the year ended December 31, 2007. The Partnership?s net asset value per Unit increased from $29.06 at December 31, 2006, to $31.24 at December 31, 2007. Total redemptions and subscriptions for the year were $107,815,305 and $49,551,232, respectively, and the Partnership?s ending capital was $523,178,555 at December 31, 2007, a decrease of $20,343,930 from ending capital at December 31, 2006, of $543,522,485. The most significant trading gains of approximately 6.1% were experienced in the currency sector during April, May, June, September, and October from short positions in the U.S. dollar versus the euro, Canadian dollar, Turkish lira, and Brazilian real, as well as outright short positions in the U.S. Dollar Index, as the value of the U.S. dollar weakened against most of its major rivals on investor sentiment that the U.S. Federal Reserve will need to reduce interest rates in order to prevent the U.S. economy from slowing. Additional gains of approximately 5.7% were recorded in the global interest rate sector primarily during January, May, and June from short positions in European interest rate futures as prices trended lower after consistently strong economic data out of the United Kingdom and Germany resulted in reduced demand for the ?safe haven? of fixed-income - 17 - investments. In addition, prices moved higher on investor sentiment that the Bank of England and European Central Bank would need to raise interest rates in order to curb inflation. During August and November, newly established long positions in U.S. and Japanese interest rate futures resulted in gains as prices increased in a continuation of a worldwide ?flight-to- quality? after volatility in the global equity markets, spurred by losses in the U.S. sub-prime mortgage sector, caused investors to seek the ?safety? of government bonds. Within the energy markets, gains of approximately 4.7% were experienced primarily during July, September, October, and December from long futures positions in crude oil and its related products as prices moved higher amid persistent concerns regarding U.S. refinery capacity and after continuous hurricane activity in the Gulf of Mexico threatened production facilities. Prices continued to increase amid rising tensions over Iran?s nuclear program, continued weakness in the U.S. dollar, and statements from senior OPEC officials indicating that production would not be increased to pull prices lower. Smaller gains of approximately 0.9% were recorded in the agricultural markets during June, August, and September from long positions in wheat futures as prices rose amid persistently strong international demand and news from the U.S. Department of Agriculture that global stockpiles would fall to the lowest level in 26 years. Elsewhere, long positions in soybean oil and soybean meal futures - 18 - resulted in gains primarily during May and June as prices moved higher after a representative from the European Union announced plans to increase alternative fuel sources and U.S. government reports showed that soybean acreage was down from a year ago. During November and December, further gains were experienced from long futures positions in the soybean complex and wheat as prices moved higher due to further data indicating dwindling global supplies. A portion of the Partnership?s overall gains for the year was offset by losses of approximately 3.3% incurred in the global stock index sector during February and early March from long positions in Japanese and U.S. stock index futures as prices reversed sharply lower after a massive sell-off in the global equity markets that began on February 27, 2007, following comments from former U.S. Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan that the U.S. economy could be due for a recession. In addition, concerns that tighter credit conditions in China and Japan might dampen global growth first sent Chinese stock markets plunging before the sell-off spread to other equity markets. During July, August, November, and December, long positions in U.S. equity index futures resulted in further losses as prices fell sharply on concerns that a widening credit crunch, sparked by U.S. sub-prime mortgage losses, would erode global economic growth and corporate earnings. Finally, smaller losses of approximately 1.2% were recorded in the metals markets throughout a majority of the year from both short and long positions in silver and - 19 - aluminum futures as prices moved without consistent direction due to conflicting data regarding supply and demand, as well as uncertainty regarding the direction of the U.S. dollar. During November, long positions in copper futures resulted in further losses as prices decreased on concerns that global demand would weaken while inventories continue to rise. The Partnership recorded total trading results including interest income totaling $79,402,767 and expenses totaling $48,285,395, resulting in net income of $31,117,372 for the year ended December 31, 2006. The Partnership?s net asset value per Unit increased from $27.45 at December 31, 2005, to $29.06 at December 31, 2006. Total redemptions and subscriptions for the year were $97,503,224 and $76,905,995, respectively, and the Partnership?s ending capital was $543,522,485 at December 31, 2006, an increase of $10,520,143 from ending capital at December 31, 2005, of $533,002,342. The most significant trading gains of approximately 6.1% were recorded in the metals markets primarily during the first six months of the year from long futures positions in copper, nickel, zinc, and aluminum as base metals prices rallied on strong global demand and reports of falling inventories. Further gains in the metals markets were experienced from long positions in gold and silver futures as prices reached 25-year highs, benefiting from - 20 - strong demand and lagging supply. Demand for precious metals increased on continued geopolitical concerns, inflation fears, and consistent demand from foreign central banks. In addition, silver prices were pressured higher after news that a silver-backed Exchange Traded Fund would launch. Gains were extended during October from long positions in base metals as prices continued to trend higher amid labor protests in producer countries and news that inventories had declined more-than- expected. Additionally, prices were pressured higher after the National Bureau of Statistics said that China's industrial production had increased significantly from a year earlier, reaffirming expectations that demand from China would stay strong. Additional gains of approximately 5.6% were recorded within the global stock index markets from long positions in European, U.S., and Pacific Rim stock index futures as global equity prices trended higher throughout the first quarter on strong corporate earnings and solid economic data. Long positions in Hong Kong equity index futures also recorded gains as prices moved higher during April and July on positive performance in the technology sector, speculation that the U.S. Federal Reserve could be near the end of its interest rate tightening campaign, and news that Gross Domestic Product in China had surged to 10.9% in the first six months of the year. Further gains in the global stock index futures markets were experienced during September from long positions in European - 21 - equity index futures as prices were supported higher on merger and acquisition activity and solid corporate earnings. During the fourth quarter, further gains were recorded from long positions in U.S., European, and Pacific Rim equity index futures as prices continued to move higher amid the U.S. Federal Reserve?s decision to hold interest rates steady, consistent merger and acquisition activity, and news of the world?s largest initial public offering in China. Smaller gains of approximately 1.3% were experienced within the global interest rates sector, primarily during March and April, from short positions in U.S. and European interest rate futures as global bond prices trended lower throughout a majority of the first quarter amid strength in regional equity markets and investor sentiment that interest rates in the United States and the European Union might rise in order to combat inflation. U.S. fixed-income futures continued to move lower into the second quarter following the release of consistently strong U.S. economic data resulting in further gains from short positions. Finally, during November, gains were recorded from long positions in U.S. fixed-income futures as prices moved higher on new concerns of a slowing U.S. economy after reports showed an increase in jobless claims, while consumer sentiment unexpectedly weakened. A portion of the Partnership?s overall gains for the year was offset by losses of approximately 1.7% in the agricultural markets from positions in wheat, soybeans, and cocoa futures. Long positions in wheat - 22 ? futures incurred losses as prices fell in March, April, and June on forecasts for favorable weather in U.S. wheat-growing regions, while short futures positions in soybeans recorded losses as prices moved higher in March on speculative buying and increased demand. During the third quarter, losses were incurred primarily during July from long futures positions in wheat and soybean oil as prices decreased on forecasts of improved weather conditions across the growing regions of the U.S. Additional losses were incurred during July from long positions in cocoa futures as prices reversed lower on news from the International Cocoa Organization that global supplies were still adequate to meet demand. Further losses in the agricultural markets were experienced during October, November, and December from both short and long positions in the soybean complex as prices moved without consistent direction due to conflicting news regarding supply and demand. Smaller losses of approximately 1.1% were incurred within the energy markets throughout the year from futures positions in crude oil and its related products, as well as in natural gas. During February, long futures positions in crude oil and its related products recorded losses as prices declined after an announcement by Chinese government authorities that China would place an emphasis on prospecting alternative energy sources in the future, reports of larger-than-expected supplies, and mild weather in the U.S. Northeast. Further losses were recorded during March from short futures positions in crude - 23 - oil and its related products as prices reversed higher early in the month on supply fears. During May, losses were incurred from long futures positions in crude oil and its related products as prices fell after supply data showed an increase in domestic inventories. Further losses were incurred from short positions in natural gas as prices moved higher on fears of a possible supply shortage. During June, newly established long positions in natural gas futures recorded losses as prices reversed lower on reports of a supply surplus and fears of a slowing global economy. During July and August, losses were also experienced from long futures positions in crude oil and its related products as prices moved lower after weaker-than-expected U.S. economic data led investors to believe that energy demand would be negatively affected and the U.S. Department of Labor reported an unexpected climb in domestic gasoline supplies. In addition, prices were pressured lower after news of an official cease-fire between Israel and Hezbollah militants in Lebanon and news that OPEC had reduced its 2006 oil demand growth forecast. Finally, during November, losses were incurred from newly established short positions in crude oil futures and its related products as prices moved higher amid concern over OPEC's production cut after the U.S. Department of Energy reported a sharp fall in domestic inventories. - 24 - The Partnership recorded total trading results including interest income totaling $23,039,815 and expenses totaling $52,254,328, resulting in a net loss of $29,214,513 for the year ended December 31, 2005. The Partnership?s net asset value per Unit decreased from $28.88 at December 31, 2004, to $27.45 at December 31, 2005. Total redemptions and subscriptions for the year were $115,415,285 and $92,326,015, respectively, and the Partnership?s ending capital was $533,002,342 at December 31, 2005, a decrease of $52,303,783 from ending capital at December 31, 2004, of $585,306,125. The most significant trading losses of approximately 5.5% were recorded in the currency markets during the first and third quarters, as well as during December, from positions in foreign currencies versus the U.S. dollar. During January, long positions in the euro versus the U.S. dollar incurred losses after the U.S. dollar?s value reversed sharply higher amid conflicting economic data, improvements in U.S. trade deficit numbers, and speculation for higher U.S. interest rates. The U.S. dollar?s value also advanced in response to expectations that the Chinese government would announce postponement of Chinese yuan re-valuation for the foreseeable future. Additional losses were recorded during February from short positions in the euro versus the U.S. dollar as the U.S. dollar weakened in response to concern for the considerable U.S. Current-Account deficit expressed by U.S. - 25 - Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan. The value of the U.S. dollar was further weakened during the remainder of February by a larger-than-expected drop in January leading economic indicators and news that South Korea?s Central Bank would be reducing its U.S. dollar currency reserves. Long European currency positions versus the U.S. dollar also recorded losses during March after the value of the U.S. dollar reversed sharply higher benefiting from higher U.S. interest rates and consumer prices. During August, long U.S. dollar positions against the British pound and euro resulted in losses as the value of the U.S. dollar declined amid higher crude oil prices, lower durable goods orders, the U.S. trade imbalance, and economic warnings from U.S. Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan. During December, the largest losses were incurred from long U.S. dollar positions versus the euro after the euro?s value increased during mid-month on the possibility that the European Central Bank would raise interest rates in 2006. Additional losses resulted from long U.S. dollar positions versus the South African rand and both the Australian and the New Zealand dollars as their values reversed higher with gold prices. Sector losses also stemmed from short U.S. dollar positions against the British pound. Partnership losses of approximately 0.9% were recorded in the global interest rate markets primarily during the third quarter from long positions in U.S. interest rate futures. During July, long positions experienced losses as prices declined following a rise in interest rates and after the U.S. Labor - 26 - Department released its June employment report. During September, long positions incurred additional losses as prices weakened after it was revealed that Hurricane Katrina?s economic impact was not significant enough to deter the U.S. Federal Reserve from its policy of raising interest rates. Smaller Partnership losses of approximately 0.6% were incurred in the agricultural markets primarily during the second and third quarters from long futures positions in wheat and corn. During April, long futures positions in wheat resulted in losses as prices fell in response to favorable weather in growing regions and reduced foreign demand. During July and August, long positions in corn futures experienced losses after prices weakened in response to higher silo rates and forecasts for supply increases. A portion of the Partnership?s overall losses for the year was offset by gains of approximately 4.4% established in the global stock index markets during the third and fourth quarters from positions in Japanese and European stock index futures. During July, long positions in Pacific Rim and European stock index futures benefited after positive economic data out of the U.S. and Japan pushed global equity prices higher. Prices continued to strengthen after China reformed its U.S. dollar currency peg policy. Strong corporate earnings out of the European Union, Japan, and the U.S. resulted in optimistic investor sentiment and pushed prices further. During September, long positions in Japanese stock index futures experienced gains as prices increased on positive comments from Bank of Japan - 27 - Governor Toshihiko Fukui, who said the Japanese economy was in the process of emerging from a soft patch. Additional sector gains resulted from long positions in European stock index futures as oil prices declined and investors embraced signs that the global economy could move forward despite Hurricane Katrina's devastation of the U.S. Gulf Coast. During the fourth quarter, long positions in Japanese and European stock index futures supplied gains as prices increased in response to falling energy prices, strong corporate earnings, and positive economic data out of the U.S. European stock markets also found support from the possibility of an end to U.S. interest rate increases. Partnership gains of approximately 3.3% were recorded in metals during the third and fourth quarters from long futures positions in copper, aluminum, and zinc as prices strengthened amid supply tightness and strong demand from China, India, and the Middle East. In the energy markets, gains of approximately 1.0% were achieved primarily during August from long futures positions in natural gas and crude oil and its related products as prices rose on supply and demand concerns. After Hurricane Katrina struck the Gulf of Mexico, prices advanced further to touch record highs. For an analysis of unrealized gains and (losses) by contract type and a further description of 2007 trading results, refer to the Partnership?s Annual Report to Limited Partners for the year ended - 28 - December 31, 2007, which is incorporated by reference to Exhibit 13.01 of this Form 10-K. The Partnership's gains and losses are allocated among its partners for income tax purposes. Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements and Contractual Obligations. The Partnership does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements, nor does it have contractual obligations or commercial commitments to make future payments that would affect its liquidity or capital resources. Market Risk. The Partnership is a party to financial instruments with elements of off-balance sheet market and credit risk. The Partnership trades futures contracts, options on futures and forward contracts, and forward contracts on physical commodities and other commodity interests, including, but not limited to, foreign currencies, financial instruments, metals, energy, and agricultural products. In entering into these contracts, the Partnership is subject to the market risk that such contracts? may be significantly influenced by market conditions, such as interest rate volatility, resulting in such contracts being less valuable. If the markets should move against all of the positions held by the Partnership at the same time, and the Trading - 29 ? Advisors were unable to offset positions of the Partnership, the Partnership could lose all of its assets and the limited partners would realize a 100% loss. In addition to the Trading Advisors? internal controls, the Trading Advisors must comply with the Partnership?s trading policies that include standards for liquidity and leverage that must be maintained. The Trading Advisors and Demeter monitor the Partnership's trading activities to ensure compliance with the trading policies and Demeter can require the Trading Advisors to modify positions of the Partnership if Demeter believes they violate the Partnership's trading policies. Credit Risk. In addition to market risk, in entering into futures, forward, and options contracts, there is a credit risk to the Partnership that the counterparty on a contract will not be able to meet its obligations to the Partnership. The ultimate counterparty or guarantor of the Partnership for futures, forward, and options contracts traded in the United States and most foreign exchanges on which the Partnership trades is the clearinghouse associated with such exchange. In general, a clearinghouse is backed by the membership of the exchange and will act in the event of non- performance by one of its members or one of its member?s customers, which should significantly reduce this credit risk. - 30 - There is no assurance that a clearinghouse, exchange, or other exchange member will meet its obligations to the Partnership, and Demeter and the commodity brokers will not indemnify the Partnership against a default by such parties. Further, the law is unclear as to whether a commodity broker has any obligation to protect its customers from loss in the event of an exchange or clearinghouse defaulting on trades affected for the broker?s customers. In cases where the Partnership trades off- exchange forward contracts with a counterparty, the sole recourse of the Partnership will be the forward contract?s counterparty. Demeter deals with these credit risks of the Partnership in several ways. First, Demeter monitors the Partnership?s credit exposure to each exchange on a daily basis. The commodity brokers inform the Partnership, as with all of their customers, of the Partnership?s net margin requirements for all of its existing open positions, and Demeter has installed a system which permits it to monitor the Partnership?s potential net credit exposure, exchange by exchange, by adding the unrealized trading gains on each exchange, if any, to the Partnership?s margin liability thereon. Second, the Partnership?s trading policies limit the amount of its Net Assets that can be committed at any given time to futures contracts and require a minimum amount of diversification in the - 31 - Partnership?s trading, usually over several different products and exchanges. Historically, the Partnership?s exposure to any one exchange has typically amounted to only a small percentage of its total Net Assets and on those relatively few occasions where the Partnership?s credit exposure climbs above such level, Demeter deals with the situation on a case by case basis, carefully weighing whether the increased level of credit exposure remains appropriate. Material changes to the trading policies may be made only with the prior written approval of the limited partners owning more than 50% of Units then outstanding. Third, with respect to forward and options on forward contract trading, the Partnership trades with only those counterparties which Demeter, together with MS&Co., has determined to be creditworthy. The Partnership presently deals with MS&Co. as the sole counterparty on all trading of foreign currency forward contracts and MSCG as the sole counterparty on all trading of options on foreign currency forward contracts. For additional information, see the ?Financial Instruments? section under ?Notes to Financial Statements? in the Partnership?s Annual Report to Limited Partners for the year ended December 31, 2007, which is incorporated by reference to Exhibit 13.01 of this Form 10-K. - 32 - Inflation has not been a major factor in the Partnership?s operations. New Accounting Developments. In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Interpretation No. 48, "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes - an interpretation of FASB Statement 109" ("FIN 48"). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for income taxes by prescribing the minimum recognition threshold a tax position must meet before being recognized in the financial statements. FIN 48 became effective for the Partnership as of January 1, 2007. The Partnership has determined that the adoption of FIN 48 did not have a material impact on the Partnership?s Financial Statements. The Partnership files U.S. federal and state tax returns. The 2004 through 2007 tax years generally remain subject to examination by U.S. federal and most state tax authorities. In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements" ("SFAS No. 157"). SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 is effective for the Partnership as of January 1, 2008. The impact to the Partnership?s Financial Statements, if any, is currently being assessed. - 33 - Item 7A.QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK Introduction The Partnership is a commodity pool engaged primarily in the speculative trading of futures, forwards, and options. The market-sensitive instruments held by the Partnership are acquired for speculative trading purposes only and, as a result, all or substantially all of the Partnership?s assets are at risk of trading loss. Unlike an operating company, the risk of market- sensitive instruments is inherent to the primary business activity of the Partnership. The futures, forwards, and options on such contracts traded by the Partnership involve varying degrees of related market risk. Market risk is often dependent upon changes in the level or volatility of interest rates, exchange rates, and prices of financial instruments and commodities, factors that result in frequent changes in the fair value of the Partnership?s open positions, and consequently in its earnings, whether realized or unrealized, and cash flow. Gains and losses on open positions of exchange-traded futures, exchange-traded forward, and exchange- traded futures-styled options contracts are settled daily through variation margin. Gains and losses on off-exchange-traded forward currency contracts and forward currency options contracts are settled upon termination of the contract. However, the Partner- ship is required to meet margin requirements equal to the net - 34 ? unrealized loss on open forward currency contracts in the Partnership accounts with the counterparty, which is accomplished by daily maintenance of the cash balance in a custody account held at MS&Co. The Partnership?s total market risk may increase or decrease as it is influenced by a wide variety of factors, including, but not limited to, the diversification among the Partnership?s open positions, the volatility present within the markets, and the liquidity of the markets. The face value of the market sector instruments held by the Partnership is typically many times the applicable margin requirements. Margin requirements generally range between 2% and 15% of contract face value. Additionally, the use of leverage causes the face value of the market sector instruments held by the Partnership typically to be many times the total capitalization of the Partnership. The Partnership?s past performance is no guarantee of its future results. Any attempt to numerically quantify the Partnership?s market risk is limited by the uncertainty of its speculative trading. The Partnership?s speculative trading and use of leverage may cause future losses and volatility (i.e., ?risk of ruin?) that far exceed the Partnership?s experiences to date under - 35 ? the ?Partnership?s Value at Risk in Different Market Sectors? section and significantly exceed the Value at Risk (?VaR?) tables disclosed. Limited partners will not be liable for losses exceeding the current net asset value of their investment. Quantifying the Partnership?s Trading Value at Risk The following quantitative disclosures regarding the Partner- ship?s market risk exposures contain ?forward-looking statements? within the meaning of the safe harbor from civil liability provided for such statements by the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (set forth in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). All quantitative disclosures in this section are deemed to be forward-looking statements for purposes of the safe harbor, except for statements of historical fact. The Partnership accounts for open positions on the basis of mark to market accounting principles. Any loss in the market value of the Partnership?s open positions is directly reflected in the Partnership?s earnings and cash flow. The Partnership?s risk exposure in the market sectors traded by the Trading Advisors is estimated below in terms of VaR. The - 36 ? Partnership estimates VaR using a model based upon historical simulation (with a confidence level of 99%) which involves constructing a distribution of hypothetical daily changes in the value of a trading portfolio. The VaR model takes into account linear exposures to risks including equity and commodity prices, interest rates, foreign exchange rates, and correlation among these variables. The hypothetical changes in portfolio value are based on daily percentage changes observed in key market indices or other market factors (?market risk factors?) to which the portfolio is sensitive. The one-day 99% confidence level of the Partnership?s VaR corresponds to the negative change in portfolio value that, based on observed market risk factors, would have been exceeded once in 100 trading days, or one day in 100. VaR typically does not represent the worst case outcome. Demeter uses approximately four years of daily market data (1,000 observations) and re-values its portfolio (using delta-gamma approximations) for each of the historical market moves that occurred over this time period. This generates a probability distribution of daily ?simulated profit and loss? outcomes. The VaR is the appropriate percentile of this distribution. For example, the 99% one-day VaR would represent the 10th worst outcome from Demeter?s simulated profit and loss series. The Partnership?s VaR computations are based on the risk representation of the underlying benchmark for each instrument or - 37 ? contract and do not distinguish between exchange and non- exchange dealer-based instruments. They are also not based on exchange and/or dealer-based maintenance margin requirements. VaR models, including the Partnership?s, are continually evolving as trading portfolios become more diverse and modeling techniques and systems capabilities improve. Please note that the VaR model is used to numerically quantify market risk for historic reporting purposes only and is not utilized by either Demeter or the Trading Advisors in their daily risk management activities. Please further note that VaR as described above may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures used by other entities. The Partnership?s Value at Risk in Different Market Sectors The following table indicates the VaR associated with the Partnership?s open positions as a percentage of total Net Assets by primary market risk category at December 31, 2007 and 2006. At December 31, 2007 and 2006, the Partnership?s total capitalization was approximately $523 million and $544 million, respectively. - 38 - Primary Market December 31, 2007 December 31, 2006 Risk Category Value at Risk Value at Risk Currency (0.49)% (1.27)% Interest Rate (0.31) (0.83) Equity (0.20) (1.95) Commodity (1.39) (0.65) Aggregate Value at Risk (1.44)% (2.40)% The VaR for a market category represents the one-day downside risk for the aggregate exposures associated with this market category. The Aggregate Value at Risk listed above represents the VaR of the Partnership?s open positions across all the market categories, and is less than the sum of the VaRs for all such market categories due to the diversification benefit across asset classes. Because the business of the Partnership is the speculative trading of futures, forwards, and options, the composition of its trading portfolio can change significantly over any given time period, or even within a single trading day. Such changes could positively or negatively materially impact market risk as measured by VaR. The table below supplements the December 31, 2007, VaR set forth above by presenting the Partnership?s high, low, and average VaR, as a percentage of total Net Assets for the four quarter-end - 39 ? reporting periods from January 1, 2007, through December 31, 2007. Primary Market Risk Category High Low Average Currency (1.53)% (0.49)% (1.13)% Interest Rate (1.33) (0.31) (0.67) Equity (1.54) (0.20) (0.68) Commodity (2.21) (0.47) (1.15) Aggregate Value at Risk (2.96)% (1.44)% (2.27)% Limitations on Value at Risk as an Assessment of Market Risk VaR models permit estimation of a portfolio?s aggregate market risk exposure, incorporating a range of varied market risks, reflect risk reduction due to portfolio diversification or hedging activities, and can cover a wide range of portfolio assets. However, VaR risk measures should be viewed in light of the methodology?s limitations, which include, but may not be limited to the following: * past changes in market risk factors will not always result in accurate predictions of the distributions and correlations of future market movements; * changes in portfolio value caused by market movements may differ from those of the VaR model; - 40 ? * VaR results reflect past market fluctuations applied to current trading positions while future risk depends on future positions; * VaR using a one-day time horizon does not fully capture the market risk of positions that cannot be liquidated or hedged within one day; and * the historical market risk factor data used for VaR estimation may provide only limited insight into losses that could be incurred under certain unusual market movements. In addition, the VaR tables above, as well as the past performance of the Partnership, give no indication of the Partnership?s potential ?risk of ruin?. The VaR tables provided present the results of the Partnership?s VaR for each of the Partnership?s market risk exposures and on an aggregate basis at December 31, 2006, and for the four quarter- end reporting periods during calendar year 2007. VaR is not necessarily representative of the Partnership?s historic risk, nor should it be used to predict the Partnership?s future financial performance or its ability to manage or monitor risk. There can be no assurance that the Partnership?s actual losses on a particular day will not exceed the VaR amounts indicated above or that such losses will not occur more than once in 100 trading days. - 41 - Non-Trading Risk The Partnership has non-trading market risk on its foreign cash balances. These balances and any market risk they may represent are immaterial. The Partnership also maintains a substantial portion of its available assets in cash at MS&Co. (Morgan Stanley DW, prior to April 1, 2007); as of December 31, 2007, such amount is equal to approximately 94% of the Partnership?s net asset value. A decline in short-term interest rates would result in a decline in the Partnership?s cash management income. This cash flow risk is not considered to be material. Materiality, as used throughout this section, is based on an assessment of reasonably possible market movements and any associated potential losses, taking into account the leverage, optionality, and multiplier features of the Partnership?s market- sensitive instruments, in relation to the Partnership?s Net Assets. Qualitative Disclosures Regarding Primary Trading Risk Exposures The following qualitative disclosures regarding the Partnership?s market risk exposures ? except for (A) those disclosures that are statements of historical fact and (B) the descriptions of how the Partnership manages its primary market risk exposures ? constitute - 42 - forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act. The Partnership?s primary market risk exposures, as well as the strategies used and to be used by Demeter and the Trading Advisors for managing such exposures, are subject to numerous uncertainties, contingencies and risks, any one of which could cause the actual results of the Partnership?s risk controls to differ materially from the objectives of such strategies. Government interventions, defaults and expropriations, illiquid markets, the emergence of dominant fundamental factors, political upheavals, changes in historical price relationships, an influx of new market participants, increased regulation, and many other factors could result in material losses, as well as in material changes to the risk exposures and the risk management strategies of the Partnership. Investors must be prepared to lose all or substantially all of their investment in the Partnership. The following were the primary trading risk exposures of the Partnership at December 31, 2007, by market sector. It may be anticipated, however, that these market exposures will vary materially over time. Currency. At December 31, 2007, the Partnership had market exposure to the currency sector. The Partnership?s currency market exposure was to exchange rate fluctuations, primarily - 43 ? fluctuations which disrupt the historical pricing relationships between different currencies and currency pairs. Interest rate changes, as well as political and general economic conditions influence these fluctuations. At December 31, 2007, the Partnership?s major exposures were to the Canadian dollar, Japanese yen, Swiss franc, British pound, euro, Australian dollar, and New Zealand dollar currency crosses, as well as to outright U.S. dollar positions. Outright positions consist of the U.S. dollar vs. other currencies. These other currencies include major and minor currencies. Demeter does not anticipate that the risk associated with the Partnership?s currency trades will change significantly in the future. Interest Rate. At December 31, 2007, the Partnership had market exposure to the global interest rate sector. Exposure was primarily spread across the U.S., Japanese, European, Australian, and Canadian interest rate sectors. Interest rate movements directly affect the price of the sovereign bond futures positions held by the Partnership and indirectly affect the value of its stock index and currency positions. Interest rate movements in one country, as well as relative interest rate movements between countries, materially impact the Partnership?s profitability. The Partnership?s interest rate exposure is generally to interest rate fluctuations in the U.S. and the other G-7 countries? interest rates. The G-7 countries consist of France, the U.S., Britain, Germany, Japan, Italy, and Canada. However, the - 44 ? Partnership also takes futures positions in the government debt of smaller countries ? e.g., Australia. Demeter anticipates that the G-7 countries? interest rates and Australian interest rates will remain the primary interest rate exposure of the Partnership for the foreseeable future. The speculative futures positions held by the Partnership may range from short to long- term instruments. Consequently, changes in short, medium, or long-term interest rates may have an effect on the Partnership. Equity. At December 31, 2007, the Partnership had market exposure to the global stock index sector, primarily to equity price risk in the G-7 countries. The stock index futures traded by the Partnership are by law limited to futures on broadly-based indices. The Partnership?s primary market exposures were to the DAX (Germany), NIKKEI 225 (Japan), NASDAQ 100 (U.S.), SPI 200 (Australia), Hang Seng (Hong Kong), TOPIX (Japan), Euro Stoxx 50 (Europe), AEX (Netherlands), RUSSELL 2000 (U.S.), TAIWAN (Taiwan), All-Share (South Africa), FTSE 100 (United Kingdom), and Dow Jones (U.S.) stock indices. The Partnership is typically exposed to the risk of adverse price trends or static markets in the European, U.S., Chinese, Japanese, and Australian stock indices. Static markets would not cause major market changes, but would make it difficult for the Partnership to avoid trendless price movements, resulting in numerous small losses. - 45 - Commodity. Energy. The largest market exposure of the Partnership at December 31, 2007, was to the energy sector. The Partnership?s energy exposure was shared primarily by futures contracts in crude oil and its related products, and natural gas. Price movements in these markets result from geopolitical developments, particularly in the Middle East, as well as weather patterns and other economic fundamentals. Significant profits and losses, which have been experienced in the past, are expected to continue to be experienced in the future. Natural gas has exhibited volatility in prices resulting from weather patterns and supply and demand factors and will likely continue in this choppy pattern. Soft Commodities and Agriculturals. The second largest market exposure of the Partnership at December 31, 2007, was to the markets that comprise these sectors. Most of the exposure was to the soybeans, soybean meal, corn, wheat, cocoa, soybean oil, lean hogs, coffee, live cattle, sugar, lumber, rubber, feeder cattle, and rapeseed markets. Supply and demand inequalities, severe weather disruptions, and market expectations affect price movements in these markets. Metals. The third largest market exposure of the Partnership at December 31, 2007, was to the metals sector. The Partnership's metals exposure was to fluctuations in the - 46 - price of base metals, such as aluminum, copper, nickel, zinc, tin, lead, and palladium, and precious metals, such as gold, silver, and platinum. Economic forces, supply and demand inequalities, geopolitical factors, and market expectations influence price movements in these markets. The Trading Advisors utilize the trading system(s) to take positions when market opportunities develop, and Demeter anticipates that the Trading Advisors will continue to do so. Qualitative Disclosures Regarding Non-Trading Risk Exposure The following was the only non-trading risk exposure of the Partnership at December 31, 2007: Foreign Currency Balances. The Partnership?s primary foreign currency balances at December 31, 2007, were in euros, Hong Kong dollars, Japanese yen, South African rand, British pounds, Mexican pesos, Norwegian kroner, Swedish kronor, Swiss francs, Singapore dollars, Israeli shekel, Canadian dollars, Australian dollars, New Zealand dollars, Czech koruna, and Hungarian forint. The Partnership controls the non-trading risk of foreign currency balances by regularly converting them back into U.S. dollars upon liquidation of their respective positions. - 47 - Qualitative Disclosure Regarding Means of Managing Risk Exposure The Partnership and the Trading Advisors, separately, attempt to manage the risk of the Partnership?s open positions in essentially the same manner in all market categories traded. Demeter attempts to manage market exposure by diversifying the Partnership?s assets among different Trading Advisors, each of whose strategies focus on different market sectors and trading approaches, in a multi-advisor Partnership, and by monitoring the performance of the Trading Advisors daily. In addition, the Trading Advisors establish diversification guidelines, often set in terms of the maximum margin to be committed to positions in any one market sector or market-sensitive instrument. Demeter monitors and controls the risk of the Partnership?s non- trading instrument, cash. Cash is the only Partnership investment directed by Demeter, rather than the Trading Advisors. Item 8.

CHANGES IN AND DISAGREEMENTS WITH ACCOUNTANTS ON ACOUNTING AND FINANCIAL DISCLOSURE None. Item 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES As of the end of the period covered by this annual report, the President and Chief Financial Officer of Demeter, the general partner of the Partnership, have evaluated the effectiveness of the Partnership?s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act), and have judged such controls and procedures to be effective. - 49 - Management?s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting Demeter is responsible for the management of the Partnership. Management of Demeter (?Management?) is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. The internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of Financial Statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The Partnership?s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: * Pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Partnership; * Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of Financial Statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that the Partnership?s transactions are being made only in accordance with authorizations of Management and directors; and - 50 ? * Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Partnership?s assets that could have a material effect on the Financial Statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Management assessed the effectiveness of the Partnership?s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007. In making this assessment, Management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control-Integrated Framework.

MORGAN STANLEY SPECTRUM CURRENCY L.P. [CHART] Year Ended December 31, 2007 ----------------------- Australian dollar -0.32% British pound 0.72% Euro 4.79% Japanese yen -2.17% Swiss franc -2.44% Minor Currencies -9.27% Note:Reflects trading results only and does not include fees or interest income. Minor currencies may include, but are not limited to, the South African rand, Thai baht, Singapore dollar, Mexican peso, New Zealand dollar, Polish zloty, Brazilian real, Norwegian krone, Czech koruna, Chilean peso, and Russian ruble. FACTORS INFLUENCING ANNUAL TRADING LOSSES: . The most significant trading losses were experienced throughout a majority of the year from both short and long positions in the South African rand versus the U.S. dollar as the value of the rand moved in a trendless pattern due to investor uncertainty regarding the status of the South African economy. Meanwhile, short positions in the Swiss franc versus the U.S. dollar incurred losses primarily during February, March, July, August, October, and November as the value of the Swiss franc reversed higher against the U.S. dollar due to accelerating fears of inflation in Switzerland and speculation that the Swiss National Bank would raise interest rates. During December, newly established long positions in the Swiss franc versus the U.S. dollar incurred further losses as the value of the U.S. dollar moved higher against its major rivals during the first half of the month following a smaller-than-expected interest rate cut by the U.S. Federal Reserve. Losses were incurred during late February and early March from short positions in the Japanese yen versus the U.S. dollar as the value of the Japanese yen reversed sharply higher against the U.S. dollar in late February due to a combination of factors including an almost 10% drop in the Shanghai stock market and a warning from Rodrigo Rato, Managing Director of the International Monetary Fund, that a weak yen "could lead to more entrenched exchange rate misalignments that worsen global imbalances", which encouraged traders to unwind short positions in the Japanese yen against most of its major rivals. During July, August, and October, short positions in the Japanese yen versus the U.S. dollar resulted in MORGAN STANLEY SPECTRUM CURRENCY L.P. FACTORS INFLUENCING ANNUAL TRADING LOSSES: (continued) further losses as the value of the Japanese yen corrected higher against most of its major rivals when traders reduced "carry-trade" positions after the sell-off in the global equity markets resulted in investors trimming "riskier" assets funded by loans in Japan. Finally, losses were experienced from both short and long positions in the Japanese yen versus the U.S. dollar during November and December as the value of the Japanese yen moved without consistent direction due to the uncertainty regarding the future interest rate policy of the Bank of Japan. Elsewhere, losses were recorded from short positions in the Mexican peso versus the U.S. dollar as the value of the Mexican peso moved higher during March and April on increased speculation of an interest rate hike by the Bank of Mexico. Additional losses were incurred during June, July, and August from newly established long positions in the Mexican peso versus the U.S. dollar as the value of the Mexican peso reversed lower leading up to and after the Bank of Mexico's decision to hold interest rates steady at 7.25%. Lastly, smaller losses were recorded primarily during January, February, May, August, November, and December from long positions in the New Zealand dollar and Australian dollar versus the U.S. dollar as the value of the U.S. dollar reversed higher against most of its major rivals due to the aforementioned reasons regarding demand for U.S. dollar-denominated government bonds. FACTORS INFLUENCING ANNUAL TRADING GAINS: . Trading gains for the year were recorded primarily during March and April from long positions in the euro versus the U.S. dollar as the value of the euro moved higher against the U.S. dollar amid indications from European Central Bank member Klaus Liebscher that interest rates in the Euro-Zone would increase further if inflation continued to rise. During September and October, additional gains were experienced from long positions in the euro versus the U.S. dollar as the value of the U.S. dollar was pulled lower leading up to and following the U.S. Federal Reserve's decision to cut interest rates to 4.50%. Lastly, during November, long positions in the euro relative to the U.S. dollar experienced additional gains as the euro strengthened against the U.S. dollar after Gross Domestic Product in the Euro-Zone came in higher than expected. Additional gains were experienced throughout a majority of the year from long positions in the Brazilian real versus the U.S. dollar as the value of the Brazilian real trended higher as consistently strong economic data out of Brazil led to investor sentiment that the Central Bank of Brazil would continue raising interest rates. In December, long positions in the Brazilian real versus the U.S. dollar achieved gains as the value of the U.S. dollar moved lower relative to its major rivals amid investor sentiment that U.S. interest rates would continue to decline.

FACTORS INFLUENCING ANNUAL TRADING GAINS: . The most significant trading gains were experienced in the global interest rate sector during January, May, and June from short positions in U.S., German, and Japanese fixed-income futures as prices trended lower as consistently strong economic data out of these countries resulted in reduced demand for the "safe haven" of fixed-income investments. In addition, prices moved higher on investor sentiment that these respective central banks would need to raise interest rates in order to curb inflation. During August, September, and November, newly established long positions in U.S., German, and Japanese fixed-income futures resulted in gains as prices increased in a continuation of a worldwide "flight-to-quality" after volatility in global equity markets, spurred by losses in the U.S. sub-prime mortgage sector, caused investors to seek the "safety" of government bonds. . Additional gains were recorded in the metals markets during February, March, and April from long positions in nickel and copper futures as prices moved higher on speculation that low stockpiles would create a supply shortage and after the International Monetary Fund's strong global growth forecasts bolstered sentiment that demand for base metals would increase. Further gains were recorded from newly established short positions in nickel futures as prices moved lower during June and November on news that China would cut stainless steel output. Elsewhere in the metals complex, short positions in silver futures resulted in gains during March and June as prices fell amid speculative selling. MORGAN STANLEY SPECTRUM GLOBAL BALANCED L.P. FACTORS INFLUENCING ANNUAL TRADING GAINS: (continued) . Smaller gains were recorded in the energy markets during March, April, July, and December from long futures positions in crude oil and its related products as prices trended higher due to persistent concerns that instability in Iraq and tension over Iran's nuclear program would negatively affect global supply. In addition, energy prices increased amid continued weakness in the U.S. dollar as U.S. dollar-denominated assets became more attractive to investors. FACTORS INFLUENCING ANNUAL TRADING LOSSES: . Trading losses for the year were recorded in the global stock index sector during February and early March from long positions in U.S., European, and Pacific Rim stock index futures as prices reversed sharply lower after a massive sell-off in the global equity markets that began on February 27, 2007, following comments from former U.S. Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan that the U.S. economy could be due for a recession. In addition, worries that tighter credit conditions in China and Japan might dampen global growth first sent Chinese stock markets plunging before the sell-off spread to other equity markets. During July, August, November, and December, long positions in U.S. and European equity index futures resulted in further losses as prices fell sharply on concerns that a widening credit crunch, sparked by U.S. sub-prime mortgage losses, would erode global economic growth and corporate earnings. These concerns heightened after U.S. Federal Reserve Chairman Bernanke told a congressional hearing on November 8, 2007, that U.S. policy makers expected U.S. growth to "slow noticeably" in the fourth quarter of 2007 and remain "sluggish" in the first half of 2008.

The most significant trading gains were experienced in the currency sector during April, May, June, September, and October from short positions in the U.S. dollar versus the euro, Canadian dollar, Turkish lira, and Brazilian real, as well as outright short positions in the U.S. Dollar Index, as the value of the U.S. dollar weakened against most of its major rivals on investor sentiment that the U.S. Federal Reserve would need to reduce interest rates in order to prevent the U.S. economy from slowing. . Additional gains were recorded in the global interest rate sector primarily during January, May, and June from short positions in European interest rate futures as prices trended lower after consistently strong economic data out of the United Kingdom and Germany resulted in reduced demand for the "safe haven" of fixed-income investments. In addition, prices moved higher on investor sentiment that the Bank of England and European Central Bank would need to raise interest rates in order to curb inflation. During August and November, newly established long positions in U.S. and Japanese interest rate futures resulted in gains as prices increased in a continuation of a worldwide "flight-to-quality" after volatility in the global equity markets, spurred by losses in the U.S. sub-prime mortgage sector, caused investors to seek the "safety" of government bonds. MORGAN STANLEY SPECTRUM SELECT L.P. FACTORS INFLUENCING ANNUAL TRADING GAINS: (continued) . Within the energy markets, gains were experienced primarily during July, September, October, and December from long futures positions in crude oil and its related products as prices moved higher amid persistent concerns regarding U.S. refinery capacity and after continuous hurricane activity in the Gulf of Mexico threatened production facilities. Prices continued to increase amid rising tensions over Iran's nuclear program, continued weakness in the U.S. dollar, and statements from senior OPEC officials indicating that production would not be increased to pull prices lower. . Smaller gains were recorded in the agricultural markets during June, August, and September from long positions in wheat futures as prices rose amid persistently strong international demand and news from the U.S. Department of Agriculture that global stockpiles would fall to the lowest level in 26 years. Elsewhere, long positions in soybean oil and soybean meal futures resulted in gains primarily during May and June as prices moved higher after a representative from the European Union announced plans to increase alternative fuel sources and U.S. government reports showed that soybean acreage was down from a year earlier. During November and December, further gains were experienced from long futures positions in the soybean complex and wheat as prices moved higher due to further data indicating dwindling global supplies. FACTORS INFLUENCING ANNUAL TRADING LOSSES: . Trading losses for the year were recorded in the global stock index sector during February and early March from long positions in Japanese and U.S. stock index futures as prices reversed sharply lower after a massive sell-off in the global equity markets that began on February 27, 2007, following comments from former U.S. Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan that the U.S. economy could be due for a recession. In addition, concerns that tighter credit conditions in China and Japan might dampen global growth first sent Chinese stock markets plunging before the sell-off spread to other equity markets. During July, August, November, and December, long positions in U.S. equity index futures resulted in further losses as prices fell sharply on concerns that a widening credit crunch, sparked by U.S. sub-prime mortgage losses, would erode global economic growth and corporate earnings. . Finally, smaller losses were recorded in the metals markets throughout a majority of the year from both short and long positions in silver and aluminum futures as prices moved without consistent direction due to conflicting data regarding supply and demand, as well as uncertainty regarding the direction of the U.S. dollar. During November, long positions in copper futures resulted in further losses as prices decreased on concerns that global demand would weaken while inventories continued to rise.

FACTORS INFLUENCING ANNUAL TRADING GAINS: . The most significant trading gains were experienced in the agricultural markets during January, February, June, and September from long futures positions in soybeans and soybean meal as prices rose on speculative buying, news of persistent global demand, and worries that drought conditions in the U.S. South and flooding in the U.S. Midwest might have damaged crops. Further gains were experienced during November and December from long futures positions in the soybean complex as prices continued to move higher amid speculation that the rising cost of oil would boost demand for alternative biofuels made from crops. Elsewhere, long positions in cocoa futures resulted in gains as prices moved higher during February, May, June, September, and December on speculation that political tensions in the Ivory Coast, the world's biggest cocoa producer, would limit production. During May, September, November, and December, long positions in coffee futures experienced gains as prices moved higher on concerns that adverse weather conditions in Brazil and Vietnam would reduce supplies. MORGAN STANLEY SPECTRUM STRATEGIC L.P. FACTORS INFLUENCING ANNUAL TRADING GAINS: (continued) . Additional gains were recorded in the energy markets during January from short futures positions in oil related products as prices declined on skepticism that OPEC would cut production as much as originally pledged. Towards the end of February, long futures positions in gasoline resulted in gains as prices moved higher on increased concerns that unexpected refinery shutdowns would curb fuel stockpiles in the future. During March, September, October, and December, long futures positions in crude oil and its related products recorded gains as prices increased due to persistent concerns that instability in Iraq and tension over Iran's nuclear program would negatively affect global supply. In addition, energy prices trended higher amid continued weakness in the U.S. dollar as U.S. dollar-denominated assets became more attractive to investors. . Within the global stock index sector, gains were recorded during January, March, April, and May from long positions in German and Hong Kong equity index futures as prices increased on continued optimism about the future of the global economy, as well as strong corporate earnings and increased merger and acquisition activity. During September and October, further gains were experienced from long positions in Hong Kong stock index futures as prices moved higher on sentiment that the easing U.S. Federal Reserve policy would continue and strength in the technology sector. . Gains were also experienced in the global interest rate sector during January, May, and June from short positions in U.S. interest rate futures as prices fell amid consistently strong economic data and rising equity prices. During October, long positions in U.S. fixed-income futures experienced gains toward the end of the month as prices increased after government reports revealed that housing starts in the U.S. had plunged to a 14-year low in September and sales of previously owned homes had fallen to the lowest level in eight years. Further gains were recorded during November from long positions in U.S. fixed-income futures as prices continued to increase following a sharp decline in global equity markets and forecasts of deeper losses related to sub-prime investments, which fueled speculation that the U.S. Federal Reserve would need to reduce borrowing costs in response to widespread fears of an economic decline. FACTORS INFLUENCING ANNUAL TRADING LOSSES: . Trading losses were experienced in the metals markets throughout a majority of the year from long positions in zinc and aluminum futures as prices reversed sharply lower due to rising global inventories.

Elsewhere, long positions in the British pound versus the U.S. dollar recorded losses during February, August, November, and December as the value of the U.S. dollar reversed higher against the British pound due to substantially stronger demand for U.S. dollar-denominated government bonds amid continuing credit market losses and uncertainty regarding the future direction of the global economy.

MORGAN STANLEY SPECTRUM SERIES MANAGEMENT'S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING Demeter Management Corporation ("Demeter"), the general partner of Morgan Stanley Spectrum Currency L.P., Morgan Stanley Spectrum Global Balanced L.P., Morgan Stanley Spectrum Select L.P., Morgan Stanley Spectrum Strategic L.P., and Morgan Stanley Spectrum Technical L.P. (individually, a "Partnership", or collectively, the "Partnerships"), is responsible for the management of the Partnerships. Management of Demeter ("Management") is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. The internal control over financial reporting is designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The Partnerships' internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that: . Pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the Partnerships; . Provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that the Partnerships' transactions are being made only in accordance with authorizations of Management and directors; and . Provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use or disposition of the Partnerships' assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. Management assessed the effectiveness of each Partnership's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007. In making this assessment, Management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission in Internal Control--Integrated Framework. Based on our assessment and those criteria, Management believes that each Partnership maintained effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007. Deloitte & Touche LLP, the Partnerships' independent registered public accounting firm, has issued an audit report on the Partnerships' internal control over financial reporting. This report, which expresses an unqualified opinion on Management's assessment and on the effectiveness of the Partnerships' internal control over financial reporting, appears under "Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm" on the following page. /s/ Walter J.

(collectively, the "Partnerships") as of December 31, 2007, based on criteria established in Internal Control--Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. The Partnerships' management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Partnerships' internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinions. A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, the company's principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, and effected by the company's board of directors, management, and other personnel to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements. Because of the inherent limitations of internal control over financial reporting, including the possibility of collusion or improper management override of controls, material misstatements due to error or fraud may not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Also, projections of any evaluation of the effectiveness of the internal control over financial reporting to future periods are subject to the risk that the controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate. In our opinion, the Partnerships maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007, based on the criteria established in Internal Control--Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission. We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States), the financial statements as of and for the year ended December 31, 2007 of the Partnerships and our report dated March 20, 2008 expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements. /s/ Deloitte & Touche LLP New York, New York March 20, 2008 MORGAN STANLEY SPECTRUM SERIES REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM To the Limited Partners and the General Partner of Morgan Stanley Spectrum Currency L.P., Morgan Stanley Spectrum Global Balanced L.P., Morgan Stanley Spectrum Select L.P., Morgan Stanley Spectrum Strategic L.P., and Morgan Stanley Spectrum Technical L.P. : We have audited the accompanying statements of financial condition of Morgan Stanley Spectrum Currency L.P., Morgan Stanley Spectrum Global Balanced L.P., Morgan Stanley Spectrum Select L.P., Morgan Stanley Spectrum Strategic L.P., and Morgan Stanley Spectrum Technical L.P.

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Partnerships' management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, such financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Morgan Stanley Spectrum Currency L.P., Morgan Stanley Spectrum Global Balanced L.P., Morgan Stanley Spectrum Select L.P., Morgan Stanley Spectrum Strategic L.P., and Morgan Stanley Spectrum Technical L.P. at December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the results of their operations, changes in partners' capital, and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2007, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. As discussed in Note 1, the Partnerships modified their classification of cash within the statements of financial condition and cash flows and modified their presentation of options within the statements of financial condition to conform to 2007 presentation.

The accompanying notes are an integral part of these financial statements. MORGAN STANLEY SPECTRUM SERIES NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES ORGANIZATION. Morgan Stanley Spectrum Currency L.P. ("Spectrum Currency"), Morgan Stanley Spectrum Global Balanced L.P. ("Spectrum Global Balanced"), Morgan Stanley Spectrum Select L.P. ("Spectrum Select"), Morgan Stanley Spectrum Strategic L.P. ("Spectrum Strategic"), and Morgan Stanley Spectrum Technical L.P. ("Spectrum Technical") (individually, a "Partnership", or collectively, the "Partnerships"), are limited partnerships organized to engage primarily in the speculative trading of futures contracts, options on futures and forward contracts, and forward contracts on physical commodities and other commodity interests, including, but not limited to, foreign currencies, financial instruments, metals, energy, and agricultural products (collectively, "Futures Interests"). The Partnerships may buy or write put and call options through listed exchanges and the over-the-counter market. The buyer has the right to purchase (in the case of a call option) or sell (in the case of a put option) a specified quantity of a specific Futures Interest or underlying asset at a specified price prior to or on a specified expiration date. The writer of an option is exposed to the risk of loss if the market price of the underlying asset declines (in the case of a put option) or increases (in the case of a call option). The writer of an option can never profit by more than the premium paid by the buyer but can lose an unlimited amount. Premiums received/paid from writing/purchasing options are recorded as liabilities/assets on the Statements of Financial Condition and are subsequently adjusted to current values. The difference between the current value of an option and the premium received/paid is treated as an unrealized gain or loss. MORGAN STANLEY SPECTRUM SERIES NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) The general partner of each Partnership is Demeter Management Corporation ("Demeter"). The commodity brokers for Spectrum Global Balanced, Spectrum Select, Spectrum Strategic, and Spectrum Technical are Morgan Stanley & Co. Incorporated ("MS&Co.") and Morgan Stanley & Co. International plc ("MSIP"). Spectrum Currency's commodity broker is MS&Co. MS&Co. acts as the counterparty on all trading of foreign currency forward contracts. Morgan Stanley Capital Group Inc. ("MSCG") acts as the counterparty on all trading of options on foreign currency forward contracts. Demeter, MS&Co., MSIP, and MSCG are wholly-owned subsidiaries of Morgan Stanley. On April 1, 2007, Morgan Stanley merged Morgan Stanley DW Inc. ("Morgan Stanley DW") into MS&Co. Upon completion of the merger, the surviving entity, MS&Co., became the Partnerships' principal U.S. commodity broker-dealer. On April 13, 2007, Morgan Stanley & Co. International Limited changed its name to Morgan Stanley & Co. International plc. Demeter is required to maintain a 1% minimum interest in the equity of each Partnership and income (losses) are shared by Demeter and the limited partners based upon their proportional ownership interests. USE OF ESTIMATES. The financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, which require management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements and related disclosures. Management believes that the estimates utilized in the preparation of the financial statements are prudent and reasonable. Actual results could differ from those estimates. MORGAN STANLEY SPECTRUM SERIES NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) REVENUE RECOGNITION. Futures Interests are open commitments until settlement date, at which time they are realized. They are valued at market on a daily basis and the resulting net change in unrealized gains and losses is reflected in the change in unrealized trading profit (loss) on open contracts from one period to the next on the Statements of Operations. Monthly, MS&Co. pays each Partnership interest income at a rate equal to the monthly average of the 4-week U.S. Treasury bill discount rate during such month on 80% of the funds on deposit with the commodity brokers at each month-end in the case of Spectrum Currency, Spectrum Select, Spectrum Strategic, and Spectrum Technical, and on 100% in the case of Spectrum Global Balanced. For purposes of such interest payments, Net Assets do not include monies owed to the Partnerships on Futures Interests. The Partnerships' functional currency is the U.S. dollar; however, the Partnerships may transact business in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. Assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are translated into U.S. dollars at the rates in effect at the date of the Statements of Financial Condition. Income and expense items denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are translated into U.S. dollars at the rates in effect during the period. Gains and losses resulting from the translation to U.S. dollars are reported in income currently. NET INCOME (LOSS) PER UNIT. Net income (loss) per unit of limited partnership interest ("Unit(s)") is computed using the weighted average number of Units outstanding during the period. MORGAN STANLEY SPECTRUM SERIES NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) NEW ACCOUNTING DEVELOPMENTS. In July 2006, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Interpretation No. 48, "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes--an interpretation of FASB Statement 109" ("FIN 48"). FIN 48 clarifies the accounting for income taxes by prescribing the minimum recognition threshold a tax position must meet before being recognized in the financial statements. FIN 48 became effective for the Partnerships as of January 1, 2007. The Partnerships have determined that the adoption of FIN 48 did not have a material impact on the Partnerships' financial statements. The Partnerships file U.S. federal and state tax returns. The 2004 through 2007 tax years generally remain subject to examination by U.S. federal and most state tax authorities. In September 2006, the FASB issued SFAS No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements" ("SFAS No. 157"). SFAS No. 157 defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. SFAS No. 157 is effective for the Partnerships as of January 1, 2008. The impact to the Partnerships' financial statements, if any, is currently being assessed. TRADING EQUITY. The Partnerships' asset "Trading Equity," reflected on the Statements of Financial Condition, consists of (A) cash on deposit with MS&Co. and MSIP for Spectrum Global Balanced, Spectrum Select, Spectrum Strategic, and Spectrum Technical, and with MS&Co. for Spectrum Currency, to be used as margin for trading; (B) net unrealized gains or losses on futures and forward contracts, which are valued at market and calculated as the difference between original contract value and market value; and for Partnerships which trade in options, (C) options purchased at fair value. Options written at fair value are recorded in Liabilities. MORGAN STANLEY SPECTRUM SERIES NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) The Partnerships, in their normal course of business, enter into various contracts with MS&Co. and MSIP acting as their commodity brokers. Pursuant to brokerage agreements with MS&Co. and MSIP, to the extent that such trading results in unrealized gains or losses, these amounts are offset and reported on a net basis on the Partnerships' Statements of Financial Condition. The Partnerships have offset the fair value amounts recognized for forward contracts executed with the same counterparty as allowable under the terms of their master netting agreement with MS&Co., as the counterparty on such contracts. The Partnerships have consistently applied their right to offset. BROKERAGE AND RELATED TRANSACTION FEES AND COSTS. The brokerage fees for Spectrum Currency and Spectrum Global Balanced are accrued at a flat monthly rate of 1/12 of 4.6% (a 4.6% annual rate) of Net Assets as of the first day of each month. Brokerage fees for Spectrum Select, Spectrum Strategic, and Spectrum Technical are currently accrued at a flat monthly rate of 1/12 of 6.0% (a 6.0% annual rate) of Net Assets as of the first day of each month. Effective July 1, 2005, brokerage fees for Spectrum Select, Spectrum Strategic, and Spectrum Technical were reduced from 1/12 of 7.25% (a 7.25% annual rate) to 1/12 of 6.0% (a 6.0% annual rate) of Net Assets as of the first day of each month. Such brokerage fees currently cover all brokerage fees, transaction fees and costs, and ordinary administrative and continuing offering expenses. OPERATING EXPENSES. The Partnerships incur monthly management fees and may incur incentive fees. All common administrative and continuing offering expenses including legal, auditing, accounting, filing fees, and other related expenses are borne by MS&Co. through the brokerage fees paid by the Partnerships. MORGAN STANLEY SPECTRUM SERIES NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) CONTINUING OFFERING. Units of each Partnership are offered at a price equal to 100% of the Net Asset Value per Unit as of the close of business on the last day of each month. No selling commissions or charges related to the continuing offering of Units are paid by the limited partners or the Partnerships. MS&Co. pays all such costs. REDEMPTIONS. Limited partners may redeem some or all of their Units at 100% of the Net Asset Value per Unit as of the end of the last day of any month that is at least six months after the closing at which a person first becomes a limited partner. The Request for Redemption must be delivered to a limited partner's local Morgan Stanley Branch Office in time for it to be forwarded and received by Demeter, no later than 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the last day of the month in which the redemption is to be effective. Redemptions must be made in whole Units, in a minimum amount of 50 Units required for each redemption, unless a limited partner is redeeming his entire interest in a Partnership. Units redeemed on or prior to the last day of the twelfth month from the date of purchase will be subject to a redemption charge equal to 2% of the Net Asset Value of a Unit on the Redemption Date. Units redeemed after the last day of the twelfth month and on or prior to the last day of the twenty-fourth month from the date of purchase will be subject to a redemption charge equal to 1% of the Net Asset Value of a Unit on the Redemption Date. Units redeemed after the last day of the twenty-fourth month from the date of purchase will not be subject to a redemption charge. The foregoing redemption charges are paid to MS&Co. MORGAN STANLEY SPECTRUM SERIES NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) EXCHANGES. On the last day of the first month which occurs more than six months after a person first becomes a limited partner in any of the Partnerships, and at the end of each month thereafter, limited partners may exchange their Units among the Partnerships (subject to certain restrictions outlined in the Limited Partnership Agreements) without paying additional charges. DISTRIBUTIONS. Distributions, other than redemptions of Units, are made on a pro-rata basis at the sole discretion of Demeter. No distributions have been made to date. Demeter does not intend to make any distributions of the Partnerships' profits. INCOME TAXES. No provision for income taxes has been made in the accompanying financial statements, as partners are individually responsible for reporting income or loss based upon their respective share of each Partnership's revenues and expenses for income tax purposes. DISSOLUTION OF THE PARTNERSHIPS. Spectrum Currency, Spectrum Global Balanced, Spectrum Strategic, and Spectrum Technical will terminate on December 31, 2035, and Spectrum Select will terminate on December 31, 2025, regardless of financial condition at such time, or at an earlier date if certain conditions occur as defined in each Partnership's Limited Partnership Agreement. LITIGATION SETTLEMENT. Spectrum Global Balanced, Spectrum Select, Spectrum Strategic, and Spectrum Technical received notification of a preliminary entitlement to payment from the Sumitomo Copper Litigation Settlement Administrator, and each Partnership received a settlement award payment in the amount of $2,230, $85,000, $454, and $4,209, respectively, during November 2005. Any amounts received are accounted for in the period received, for the benefit of the limited partners at the date of receipt. MORGAN STANLEY SPECTRUM SERIES NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) RESTRICTED AND UNRESTRICTED CASH. As reflected on the Partnerships' Statements of Financial Condition, restricted cash represents cash on deposit to satisfy margin requirements for trading. These amounts of restricted cash are maintained separately. Cash that is not on deposit to satisfy the margin requirements for trading is reflected as unrestricted cash. RECLASSIFICATIONS. Certain prior year amounts relating to cash balances were reclassified on the Statements of Financial Condition and Cash Flows to conform to 2007 presentation. Certain prior year amounts relating to options were reclassified on the Statements of Financial Condition to conform to 2007 presentation. Such reclassifications have no impact on the Partnerships' reported net income (loss). -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS Each Partnership pays brokerage fees to MS&Co. (Morgan Stanley DW through March 31, 2007) as described in Note 1. Spectrum Global Balanced, Spectrum Select, Spectrum Strategic, and Spectrum Technical's cash is on deposit with Morgan Stanley DW (through March 31, 2007), MS&Co., and MSIP, and Spectrum Currency's cash is on deposit with Morgan Stanley DW (through March 31, 2007) and MS&Co., in futures interests trading accounts to meet margin requirements as needed. MS&Co. (Morgan Stanley DW through March 31, 2007) pays interest on these funds as described in Note 1.

MORGAN STANLEY SPECTRUM SERIES NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 4. FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The Partnerships trade Futures Interests. Futures and forwards represent contracts for delayed delivery of an instrument at a specified date and price. Risk arises from changes in the value of these contracts and the potential inability of counterparties to perform under the terms of the contracts. There are numerous factors which may significantly influence the market value of these contracts, including interest rate volatility. The market value of exchange-traded contracts is based on the settlement price quoted by the exchange on the day with respect to which market value is being determined. If an exchange-traded contract could not have been liquidated on such day due to the operation of daily limits or other rules of the exchange, the settlement price shall be the settlement price on the first subsequent day on which the contract could be liquidated. The market value of off-exchange-traded contracts is based on the fair market value quoted by the counterparty. The Partnerships' contracts are accounted for on a trade-date basis and marked to market on a daily basis. Each Partnership accounts for its derivative investments in accordance with the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities" ("SFAS No. 133"). SFAS No. 133 defines a derivative as a financial instrument or other contract that has all three of the following characteristics: (1)One or more underlying notional amounts or payment provisions; (2)Requires no initial net investment or a smaller initial net investment than would be required relative to changes in market factors; (3)Terms require or permit net settlement. Generally, derivatives include futures, forward, swap or options contracts, and other financial instruments with similar characteristics such as caps, floors, and collars. The net unrealized gains (losses) on open contracts at December 31, reported as a component of "Trading Equity" on the Statements of Financial Condition, and their longest contract maturities were as follows: MORGAN STANLEY SPECTRUM SERIES NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) SPECTRUM CURRENCY

MORGAN STANLEY SPECTRUM SERIES NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) The Partnerships have credit risk associated with counterparty nonperformance. As of the date of the financial statements, the credit risk associated with the instruments in which the Partnerships trade is limited to the amounts reflected in the Partnerships' Statements of Financial Condition. The Partnerships also have credit risk because MS&Co., MSIP, and/or MSCG act as the futures commission merchants or the counterparties, with respect to most of the Partnerships' assets. Exchange-traded futures, exchange-traded forward, and exchange-traded futures-styled options contracts are marked to market on a daily basis, with variations in value settled on a daily basis. MS&Co. and MSIP, each as a futures commission merchant for each Partnership's exchange-traded futures, exchange-traded forward, and exchange-traded futures-styled options contracts, are required, pursuant to regulations of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, to segregate from their own assets, and for the sole benefit of their commodity customers, all funds held by them with respect to exchange-traded futures, exchange-traded forward, and exchange-traded futures-styled options contracts, including an amount equal to the net unrealized gains (losses) on all open exchange-traded futures, exchange-traded forward, and exchange-traded futures-styled options contracts, which funds, in the aggregate, totaled at December 31, 2007 and 2006 respectively, $35,308,073 and $41,074,269 for Spectrum Global Balanced, $530,127,958 and $547,628,371 for Spectrum Select, $217,469,564 and $207,351,885 for Spectrum Strategic, and $592,593,582 and $754,343,175 for Spectrum Technical. With respect to each Partnership's off-exchange-traded forward currency contracts and forward currency options contracts, there are no daily settlements of variation in value, nor is there any requirement that an amount equal to the net unrealized gains (losses) on such contracts be segregated. However, each Partnership is required to meet margin requirements equal to the net unrealized loss on open forward currency contracts in the Partnership accounts with the counterparty, which is accomplished by daily maintenance of the cash balance in a custody account held at MS&Co. With respect to MORGAN STANLEY SPECTRUM SERIES NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (continued) those off-exchange-traded forward currency contracts, the Partnerships are at risk to the ability of MS&Co., the sole counterparty on all such contracts, to perform. With respect to those off-exchange-traded forward currency options contracts, the Partnerships are at risk to the ability of MSCG, the sole counterparty on all such contracts, to perform. Each Partnership has a netting agreement with each counterparty. These agreements, which seek to reduce both the Partnerships' and the counterparties' exposure on off-exchange-traded forward currency contracts, should materially decrease the Partnerships' credit risk in the event of MS&Co.'s or MSCG's bankruptcy or insolvency. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 5.

*Expenses per unit would have been $(2.12) had it not been for the management fee waived by Chesapeake. **Such percentage is after waiver of management fees. Chesapeake voluntarily waived a portion of the management fees (equal to 0.2% of average net assets). /(1)/Realized Profit (Loss) is a balancing amount necessary to reconcile the change in Net Asset Value per Unit with the other per Unit information.
