Re: Abingdon Futures Fund L.P.




Ladies and Gentlemen:




     1. 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.



     2. Representations, Warranties and Covenants of Subscriber. As an inducement to the General
Partner on behalf of the Partnership to sell me the Units for which I have subscribed I hereby
represent, warrant and agree as follows:



     (a) I am over 21 years old, am legally competent to execute this Subscription Agreement and
have received and reviewed the Memorandum and the Partnership’s most recent monthly statement and
annual report, if any, and except as set forth in the Memorandum, no representations or warranties
have been made to me by the Placement Agent, the Partnership, its General Partner or their agents,
with respect to the business of the Partnership, the financial condition of the Partnership, the
deductibility of any item for tax purposes or the economic, tax, or any other aspects or
consequences of a purchase of a Unit, and I have not relied upon any information concerning the
offering, written or oral, other than that contained in the Memorandum or provided by the General
Partner (as the same may have been relayed to me by the Placement Agent) at my request. In
addition, I have been represented by such legal and tax counsel and others selected by me as I have
found it necessary to consult concerning this transaction. I am in compliance with all federal and
state regulatory requirements applicable to this investment. With respect to the tax aspects of my
investment, I am relying upon the advice of my own personal tax advisors and upon my own knowledge
with respect thereto.



B-2









 





     (b) I have carefully reviewed the various conflicts of interest set forth in the Memorandum,
including those arising from the fact that the General Partner is indirectly owned by Citigroup
Global Markets Inc., a New York corporation (“CGM”), which serves as the commodity broker/dealer
for the Partnership.



     (c) I hereby acknowledge and agree to the terms of the Customer Agreement between the
Partnership and CGM and to the payment to CGM of the flat rate brokerage fee as described in the
Memorandum. I understand that lower brokerage fees might be available, but that the General
Partner will not negotiate with CGM or any other broker to obtain such lower rates. I further
understand that, under the terms of the Placement Agreement by and among the Partnership, CGM and
the Placement Agent, the Placement Agent will be compensated by a payment of a portion of the flat
rate brokerage fee received by CGM that is calculated based on the number of limited partners in
the Partnership that are customers of the Placement Agent.



     (d) The Partnership has made available to me, prior to the date hereof, the opportunity to
ask questions of, and to receive answers from, the General Partner and its representatives,
concerning the terms and conditions of the offering, and has afforded me access to obtain any
information, documents, financial statements, records and books (i) relating to the Partnership,
its business, the offering and an investment in the Partnership, and (ii) necessary to verify the
accuracy of any information, documents, financial statements, records and books furnished in
connection with the offering. All materials and information requested by me, including any
information requested to verify any information furnished, have been made available and have been
examined to my satisfaction.



     (e) I understand that the Partnership offering has not been registered under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), or pursuant to the provisions of the securities or other laws
of certain jurisdictions, in reliance on exemptions for private offerings contained in the Act and
in the laws of certain jurisdictions. I am fully aware of the restrictions on sale,
transferability and assignment of the Units as set forth in the limited partnership agreement (the
“Partnership Agreement”) of the Partnership, as amended from time to time, and that I must bear the
economic risk of my investment in the Partnership for an indefinite period of time because the
offering has not been registered under the Act. I understand that the Units cannot be offered or
sold unless they are subsequently registered under the Act or an exemption from such registration
is available, and that any transfer requires the consent of the General Partner, who may determine
not to permit any specific transfer.



     (f) I represent that I am aware of the speculative nature of this investment and of the high
degree of risk involved, that I can bear the economic risks of this investment and that I can
afford a complete loss of my investment. As evidence of the foregoing, I hereby represent to you
that I: (i) have sufficient liquid assets to pay the purchase price for my interest in the
Partnership; (ii) have adequate means of providing for my current needs and possible personal
contingencies and have no present need for liquidity of my investment in the Partnership; (iii)
have adequate net worth and sufficient means to sustain a complete loss of my investment in the
Partnership; (iv) am an accredited investor as defined in Rule 501 (a) of the Act, the terms of
which are set forth in Exhibit I to this Subscription Agreement by virtue of the subparagraph
indicated on page B-7; (v) have substantial experience in making similar investments; (vi) have,
alone or with my purchaser representative, sufficient knowledge to be able to evaluate the merits
and risks of this investment; and (vii) have made this decision to invest in the Partnership based
on my own or my purchaser representative’s independent evaluation.



     (g) I will not transfer or assign this Subscription Agreement, or any of my interest herein.
I am acquiring my interest in the Partnership hereunder for my own account and for investment
purposes only and not with a view to or for the transfer, assignment, resale or distribution
thereof, in whole or in part. I have no present plans to enter into any such contract,
undertaking, agreement or arrangement. I understand that, by making an investment in the
Partnership, I will be a limited partner. I understand that the General



B-3









 





Partner may in its absolute discretion require any limited partner to redeem all or part of his Units, upon ten days’
notice to such limited partner.




     (h) If I am not a citizen or resident of the United States for U.S. tax purposes, I agree to
pay or reimburse the Placement Agent or the Partnership for any taxes, including but not limited to
withholding tax imposed with respect to my Units.



     (i) I understand that as part of the Partnership’s responsibility for the prevention of money
laundering, the Placement Agent may require a detailed verification of identity and the source of
payment. In the event of delay or failure by me to produce any information required for
verification purposes, the General Partner may refuse to accept my application and subscription
funds relating thereto or may refuse to process a redemption request until proper information has
been provided. In this regard, I further understand that I must make the additional
representations, warranties and covenants with respect to the prevention of money laundering in
paragraph 7 of this Subscription Agreement.



     (j) I hereby represent and affirm that (i) I have a net worth alone or with my spouse
exceeding 10 times my investment; (ii) I have either alone or with my professional advisor
the capacity to assess the terms and potential risks and my rights and obligations in connection
with this transaction or (iii) I am able to bear the economic risk of the investment.



     (k) I represent that the information contained herein is complete and accurate as of the date
hereof and may be relied upon by the General Partner. I further represent that I will notify the
General Partner immediately of any adverse change in any such information which may occur prior to
the acceptance of my subscription and will promptly send the General Partner written confirmation
thereof.



     (l) If I am a collective investment vehicle, I am in compliance with all applicable Federal
regulatory requirements including the registration rules of the Commodity Futures Trading
Commission (“CFTC”).



     (m) I represent that I am not and will not become a “Benefit Plan Investor” within the
meaning of U.S. Department of Labor Regulation 29 C.F.R. §2510.3-101, as amended by the Pension
Protection Act of 2006 (the “Plan Assets Regulation”). Generally, a “Benefit Plan Investor” is any
plan or fund organized by an employer or employee organization subject to Title I of the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), or any plans subject to Section 4975
of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”) to provide retirement, deferred compensation,
welfare or similar benefits to employees or beneficiaries, including an entity described in Section
(g) of the Plan Assets Regulation, in which 25% or more of any class of equity interests is owned
by such plans and that is primarily engaged in the business of investing capital.



     3. Acceptance of Partnership Agreement and Power of Attorney. I hereby apply to become a
limited partner as of the date upon which the sale of my Units becomes effective, and I hereby
agree to each and every term of the Partnership Agreement as if my signature were subscribed
thereto.



     (a) I hereby constitute and appoint the General Partner of the Partnership, with full power
of substitution, as my true and lawful attorney to execute, acknowledge, file and record in my
name, place and stead: (i) the Partnership Agreement substantially in the form included as an
Appendix to the Memorandum; (ii) all certificates and other instruments which the General Partner
of the Partnership shall deem appropriate to create, qualify, continue or dissolve the Partnership
as a limited partnership in the jurisdictions in which the Partnership may be formed or conduct
business; (iii) all agreements amending or modifying the Partnership Agreement that may be
appropriate to reflect a change in any provision of the Partnership Agreement or the exercise by
any person of any right or rights thereunder not requiring my specific consent, or requiring my
consent if such consent has been given, and any other change, interpretation or modification of the
Partnership Agreement in accordance with the terms thereof; (iv) such amendments, instruments and
documents which the General Partner deems appropriate under the laws of the



B-4









 





State of New York or any other state or jurisdiction to reflect any change, amendment or modification of the Partnership
Agreement of any kind referred to in subparagraph (iii) hereof; (v) filings with agencies of any
federal, state or local governmental unit or of any jurisdiction which the General Partner shall
deem appropriate to carry out the business of the Partnership; and (vi) all conveyances and other
instruments which the General Partner shall deem appropriate to effect the transfer of my
Partnership interest pursuant to the Partnership Agreement or of Partnership assets and to reflect the dissolution and
termination of the Partnership. The foregoing appointment (x) is a special power of attorney
coupled with an interest, is irrevocable and shall survive my subsequent death, incapacity or
disability and (y) shall survive the delivery of an assignment by me of the whole or any portion of
my interest, except that where an assignee of the whole of such interest has been approved by the
General Partner for admission to the Partnership as a substituted Limited Partner, the power of
attorney shall survive the delivery of such assignment for the sole purpose of enabling the General
Partner to execute, acknowledge and file any instrument necessary to effect such substitution.




     (b) FOR INDIVIDUAL INVESTORS AND TRUSTEES EXECUTING THIS SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT IN THE STATE
OF NEW YORK. I acknowledge that the above constitution and appointment of the General Partner of
the Partnership as my true and lawful attorney does not apply to individuals executing this
Subscription Agreement in the State of New York. Any such individual shall instead read and sign
the New York State Power of Attorney in Exhibit III to this Subscription Agreement and have his or
her signature thereto notarized.



     4. Indemnification. I hereby agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Partnership, the
General Partner and its affiliated persons from any and all damages, losses, costs and expenses
(including reasonable attorneys’ fees) which they may incur by reason of any breach by me of the
covenants, warranties and representations contained in this Subscription Agreement.



     5. Survival. All representations, warranties and covenants contained in this Subscription
Agreement and the indemnification contained in paragraph 4 shall survive (a) the acceptance of the
subscription; (b) changes in the transactions, documents and instruments described in the
Memorandum that are not material; and (c) the death or disability of the undersigned.



     6. Miscellaneous. This subscription is not revocable by me and constitutes the entire
agreement among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and may not be amended
orally. This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and be governed by the laws of the
State of New York.



     7. Additional Representations, Warranties and Covenants with Respect to Anti-Money
Laundering. As an inducement to the Partnership to sell the undersigned the Units, the undersigned
also hereby represents, warrants and agrees as follows:


          (a) I acknowledge and agree that the Partnership has anti-money laundering responsibilities
under the laws of the United States and if such laws change the Partnership may be required to make
changes to its anti-money laundering procedures or to implement additional anti-money laundering
measures in the future.


          (b) I confirm and covenant that my subscription monies were not derived from any criminal
enterprise or other activities that contravene United States (federal or state) or international
anti-money laundering laws and regulations.


          (c) I represent and warrant that I am not:




          (i) an individual (or member of an entity or organization) named on the list of
Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons published by the U.S Treasury
Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (“OFAC”) or any similar list maintained by
OFAC pursuant to any authorizing statute including, but not limited to, the International
Emergency Economic Powers




B-5












 




Act, 50 U.S.C. §§ 1701 et seq., the Trading with the Enemy Act, 50 U.S.C. App. 1 et
seq., and any executive order, rule, or regulation promulgated thereunder;





               (ii) affiliated with any such individual;




               (iii) a resident in, a citizen of, or a member of an entity organized under the laws of
or having a place of business in, a country or territory subject to the country-based U.S.
trade sanctions programs found at 31 C.F.R. Chapter V and on the OFAC website at
http://www.ustreas.gov/offices/enforcement/ofac with the result that the investment would be
prohibited by U.S. law;




               (iv) acting on behalf of a foreign bank without a physical presence in any country,
other than a foreign bank that (A) is an affiliate of a depositary institution, credit
union, or foreign bank that maintains a physical presence in the United States or a foreign
country, as applicable, and (B) is subject to supervision by a banking authority in the
country regulating such affiliated depositary institution;




               (v) a person or member of an entity resident in, organized or chartered under the laws
of, a jurisdiction identified as non-cooperative with international anti-money laundering
principles or procedures by an intergovernmental group or organization, such as the
Financial Action Task Force, of which the United States is a member and with which
designation the United States representative to the group or organization continues to
concur (a “non-cooperative jurisdiction”);




               (vi) a senior foreign political figure, an immediate family member or close associate
of a senior foreign political figure within the meaning of the USA PATRIOT Act of 2001; or

has been designated by the U.S. Secretary of the Treasury under Section 311 or 312 of the
USA PATRIOT Act of 2001 as warranting special measures due to money laundering concerns.



               (d) I represent and warrant that the funds used to subscribe for the Units do not and will not
originate from, nor be routed through, an account maintained at a foreign bank that is barred,
pursuant to its banking license, from conducting banking activities with the citizens of, or with
the local currency of, the country that issued the license, or a bank organized or chartered under
the laws of a non-cooperative jurisdiction. This provision does not apply to a foreign bank
meeting the exceptions set out in (iv) (A) and (B) in paragraph 7(c) above.



               (e) I agree to promptly notify the Placement Agent and the General Partner should I become
aware of any change in the information set out in this paragraph 7. I acknowledge that, by law,
the General Partner may be obligated to “freeze my account,” either by prohibiting additional
subscriptions, declining to repurchase any Units and/or segregating the assets in my account in
compliance with governmental regulations, and the Placement Agent and the General Partner may also
be required to report such action and to disclose the my identity to OFAC. I represent and warrant
that all of the information which I have provided to the Partnership in connection with this
Subscription Agreement is true and correct, and agree to provide any information the Placement
Agent or its agents deem necessary to comply with its anti-money laundering program and related
responsibilities from time to time.

SUPPLEMENTAL DOCUMENT

FOR

SUBSCRIPTIONS IN NEW YORK

MADE ON OR AFTER

SEPTEMBER 1, 2009




NEW YORK STATE LIMITED POWER OF ATTORNEY




[THIS DOCUMENT MUST BE NOTARIZED]




     The New York Legislature recently enacted changes to Title 15 of Article 5 of the New York
State General Obligations Law which require this additional document to be signed by certain
subscribers to the Partnership. Subscribers who are (i) natural persons investing for their own
account or as trustee for the benefit of a trust and (ii) executing this Subscription Agreement in
the State of New York on or after September 1, 2009 must complete the form below. The limited
power of attorney contained herein replaces the limited power of attorney which appears in
paragraph 3 of the Subscription Agreement. Terms not defined shall retain the meaning given to
them in the Subscription Agreement.



     (1) Subscriber section (to be completed by the Subscriber and notarized):



     I, _________________________________, hereby apply to become a limited partner as of the date upon which
the sale of my Units becomes effective, and I hereby agree to each and every term of the
Partnership Agreement as if my signature were subscribed thereto. As principal, I hereby
constitute and appoint the General Partner of the Partnership, with full power of substitution, as
my agent and true and lawful attorney to execute, acknowledge, file and record in my name, place
and stead: (i) the Partnership Agreement substantially in the form included as an Appendix to the
Memorandum; (ii) all certificates and other instruments which the General Partner of the
Partnership shall deem appropriate to create, qualify, continue or dissolve the Partnership as a
limited partnership in the jurisdictions in which the Partnership may be formed or conduct
business; (iii) all agreements amending or modifying the Partnership Agreement that may be
appropriate to reflect a change in any provision of the Partnership Agreement or the exercise by
any person of any right or rights thereunder not requiring my specific consent, or requiring my
consent if such consent has been given, and any other change, interpretation or modification of the
Partnership Agreement in accordance with the terms thereof; (iv) such amendments, instruments and
documents which the General Partner deems appropriate under the laws of the State of New York or
any other state or jurisdiction to reflect any change, amendment or modification of the Partnership
Agreement of any kind referred to in subparagraph (iii) hereof; (v) filings with agencies of any
federal, state or local governmental unit or of any jurisdiction which the General Partner shall
deem appropriate to carry out the business of the Partnership; and (vi) all conveyances and other
instruments which the General Partner shall deem appropriate to effect the transfer of my
Partnership interest pursuant to the Partnership Agreement or of Partnership assets and to reflect
the dissolution and termination of the Partnership. The foregoing appointment (x) is



B-13









 




a special power of attorney coupled with an interest, is irrevocable and shall survive my
subsequent death, incapacity or disability, (y) shall survive the delivery of an assignment by me
of the whole or any portion of my interest, except that where an assignee of the whole of such

NEW YORK LIMITED POWER OF ATTORNEY

CAUTIONARY LEGENDS




     The following disclosure is required to be included verbatim in all powers of attorney subject
to Title 15 of Article 5 of the New York State General Obligations Law:


CAUTION TO THE PRINCIPAL: Your Power of Attorney is an important
document. As the “principal,” you give the person whom you choose
(your “agent”) authority to spend your money and sell or dispose of
your property during your lifetime without telling you. You do not
lose your authority to act even though you have given your agent
similar authority.



When your agent exercises this authority, he or she must act
according to any instructions you have provided or, where there are
no specific instructions, in your best interest. “Important
Information for the Agent” at the end of this document describes
your agent’s responsibilities. Your agent can act on your behalf
only after signing the Power of Attorney before a notary public.



You can request information from your agent at any time. If you are
revoking a prior Power of Attorney by executing this Power of
Attorney, you should provide written notice of the revocation to
your prior agent(s) and to the financial institutions where your
accounts are located.



You can revoke or terminate your Power of Attorney at any time for
any reason as long as you are of sound mind. If you are no longer
of sound mind, a court can remove an agent for acting improperly.



Your agent cannot make health care decisions for you. You may
execute a “Health Care Proxy” to do this.



The law governing Powers of Attorney is contained in the New York
General Obligations Law, Article 5, Title 15. This law is available
at a law library, or online through the New York State Senate or
Assembly websites, www.senate.state.ny.us or
www.assembly.state.ny.us.



If there is anything about this document that you do not understand,
you should ask a lawyer of your own choosing to explain it to you.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR THE AGENT:



When you accept the authority granted under this Power of Attorney,
a special legal relationship is created between you and the
principal. This relationship imposes on you legal responsibilities



B-16









 






that continue until you resign or the Power of Attorney is
terminated or revoked. You must:



(1) act according to any instructions from the principal, or, where
there are no instructions, in the principal’s best interest;



(2) avoid conflicts that would impair your ability to act in the
principal’s best interest;



(3) keep the principal’s property separate and distinct from any
assets you own or control, unless otherwise permitted by law;



(4) keep a record of all receipts, payments, and transactions
conducted for the principal; and



(5) disclose your identity as an agent whenever you act for the
principal by writing or printing the principal’s name and signing
your own name as “agent” in either of the following manner:
(Principal’s Name) by (Your Signature) as Agent, or (your signature)
as Agent for (Principal’s Name).



You may not use the principal’s assets to benefit yourself or give
major gifts to yourself or anyone else unless the principal has
specifically granted you that authority in this Power of Attorney or
in a Statutory Major Gifts Rider attached to this Power of Attorney.
If you have that authority, you must act according to any
instructions of the principal or, where there are no such
instructions, in the principal’s best interest. You may resign by
giving written notice to the principal and to any co-agent,
successor agent, monitor if one has been named in this document, or
to the principal’s guardian if one has been appointed. If there is
anything about this document or your responsibilities that you do
not understand, you should seek legal advice.



Liability of agent:



The meaning of the authority given to you is defined in New York’s
General Obligations Law, Article 5, Title 15. If it is found that
you have violated the law or acted outside the authority granted to
you in the Power of Attorney, you may be liable under the law for
your violation.
