Subscription of Shares For the sum of U.S.$25,000, which the Company acknowledges receiving in cash, the Company hereby issues the Shares to the Subscriber, and the Subscriber hereby subscribes for the Shares from the Company, subject to forfeiture, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement. Concurrently with the Subscriber’s execution of this Agreement, the Company shall register the Shares in the name of the Subscriber on the register of members of the Company. All references in this Agreement to Shares being forfeited shall take effect as surrenders for no consideration of such shares as a matter of Cayman Islands law.
Subscription for Units I hereby irrevocably subscribe for the amount of Units (and partial Units rounded to four decimal places) of Limited Partnership Interest (“Units”) of Abingdon Futures Fund L.P. (the “Partnership”) as indicated on page B-7 hereof and as described in the Private Placement Offering Memorandum and Disclosure Document dated August 1, 2009, as amended or supplemented from time to time (the “Memorandum”). I understand that each Unit will be offered at Net Asset Value per Unit on the date of sale. Simultaneous with my delivery of this subscription agreement to Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC (the “Placement Agent”), I will either (a) complete and deliver to the Placement Agent the letter in the form attached hereto as Exhibit II, to authorize the Placement Agent to transfer by wire from my brokerage account with the Placement Agent, to the Partnership, monies sufficient to purchase the Units for which I am subscribing, or (b) deliver a check to the Placement Agent payable to the Partnership in an amount sufficient to purchase the Units for which I am subscribing for delivery by the Placement Agent to the General Partner. I understand that all capitalized terms used in this subscription agreement (“Subscription Agreement”) that are not separately defined herein shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Memorandum. I am aware that this subscription is not binding on the Partnership unless and until it is accepted by Ceres Managed Futures LLC, a limited liability company organized under the laws of the State of Delaware and the Partnership’s general partner (the “General Partner”), which may reject this subscription in whole or in part for any reason whatsoever. I understand that the General Partner will advise me within five business days of receipt of my funds and this Subscription Agreement if my subscription has been rejected. I further understand that if this subscription is not accepted, the full amount of my subscription will be promptly returned to me without deduction.
Subscription Price Each Warrant is exercisable at a price per share (the “Exercise Price”) of US$1.00. One
(1) Warrant and the Exercise Price are required to subscribe for each share during the term of the Warrants.
Purchase of Shares from the Fund (a) The Underwriter shall have the right to buy from the Fund the shares needed to fill unconditional orders for shares of the Fund placed with the Underwriter by investors or securities dealers, depository institutions or other financial intermediaries acting as agent for their customers. The price which the Underwriter shall pay for the shares so purchased from the Fund shall be the net asset value, determined as set forth in Section 3(d) hereof, used in determining the public offering price on which such orders are based.
(b) The shares are to be resold by the Underwriter to investors at a public offering price, as set forth in Section 3(c) hereof, or to securities dealers, depository institutions or other financial intermediaries acting as agent for their customers having agreements with the Underwriter upon the terms and conditions set forth in Section 8 hereof.
(c) The public offering price of the shares, i.e., the price per share at which the Underwriter or selected dealers or selected agents (each as defined in Section 8(a) below) may sell shares to the public, shall be the public offering price determined in accordance with the then current Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information of the Fund (the "Prospectus" and "Statement of Additional Information," respectively) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), relating to such shares, but not to exceed the net asset value at which the Underwriter is to purchase such shares, plus, in the case of Class A shares, a front-end sales charge equal to a specified percentage or percentages of the public offering price of the Class A shares as set forth in the Prospectus. Class A shares may be sold without such a sales charge to certain classes of persons as from time to time set forth in the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information. All payments to the Fund hereunder shall be made in the manner set forth in Section 3(f) hereof.
(d) The net asset value of shares of the Fund shall be determined by the Fund, or any agent of the Fund, as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange on each Fund business day in accordance with the method set forth in the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information and guidelines established by the Directors of the Fund.
(e) The Fund reserves the right to suspend the offering of its shares at any time in the absolute discretion of its Directors.
(f) The Fund, or any agent of the Fund designated in writing to the Underwriter by the Fund, shall be promptly advised by the Underwriter of all purchase orders for shares received by the Underwriter. Any order may be rejected by the Fund; provided, however, that the Fund will not arbitrarily or without reasonable cause refuse to accept or confirm orders for the purchase of shares. The Fund (or its agent) will confirm orders upon their receipt, will make appropriate book entries and upon receipt by the Fund (or its agent) of payment thereof, will deliver deposit receipts or certificates for such shares pursuant to the instructions of the Underwriter. Payment shall be made to the Fund in New York Clearing House funds. The Underwriter agrees to cause such payment and such instructions to be delivered promptly to the Fund (or its agent).
Repurchase of Shares If any share is repurchased by any of the Funds or is tendered thereto for redemption within seven business days after confirmation by us of the original purchase order from you for such security, you shall forthwith refund to us the full compensation paid to you on the original sale.
