    How
      to Invest in FuturesAccess

    General

     

    Merrill
      Lynch Alternative Investments LLC (“MLAI”) has attempted to minimize the
      paperwork normally associated with investors (“Investors”) participating in
      private placements in general and in the Merrill Lynch Futures AccessSM Program
      (“FuturesAccess”) in particular.  All information which Investors must
      complete is included in the Signature Page attached to this FuturesAccess
      Program Subscription and Exchange Agreement (“Subscription
      Agreement”).  Acceptance of your Subscription Agreement entitles you
      to participate in any fund included in FuturesAccess (a “FuturesAccess Fund”),
      including any new FuturesAccess Funds added in the future (subject to
      availability).

     

    Investors
      participating in the FuturesAccess Funds through both taxable and tax-exempt
      accounts must submit separate Signature Pages for each such account (unless
      their Financial Advisor informs them otherwise).

     

    Investors
      must submit a new Signature Page each time they wish to invest in or exchange
      into a FuturesAccess Fund.

     

    Only
      the detachable Signature Page attached hereto must be submitted to your
      Financial Advisor, not the full Subscription Agreement.  Your
      Financial Advisor must countersign your Signature Page.  Please give
      the Signature Page to your Financial Advisor to send to
      MLAI.

     

    If
      you
      have any questions as to how to complete the Signature Page or need additional
      Subscription Agreements or Signature Pages, please contact your Financial
      Advisor or:

                accounts as well as through individual retirement accounts (“IRAs”) and
                other tax-exempt accounts.  Investments by the Subscriber and by
                related tax-exempt as well as taxable accounts (including certain
                investments for the benefit of immediate family members of the Subscriber)
                may be combined for purposes of meeting FuturesAccess minimums (see

                Signature Page include plans subject to Section 4975 of the Internal
                Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), such as IRAs, or plans that

    Multiple
      Classes of Units

     

    Four
      Classes of Units are generally offered by the FuturesAccess
      Funds:  Class A, Class C, Class I and Class D.
      Each Class is subject to a different fee structure, and Class I and
      Class D are subject to certain eligibility requirements.  The
      Units of the Trend-Following Fund currently are not divided into
      Classes.

     

    Subscribers
      may choose between Class A Units (upfront sales commission; lower ongoing
      Sponsor Fees) and Class C Units (no upfront sales commission; higher
      ongoing Sponsor Fees).  There is no minimum “Program Investment”
(defined below) required to invest in Class A or Class C Units (other
      than the $10,000 minimum subscription amount required to invest in a particular
      FuturesAccess Fund or FuturesAccess overall).

     

    If
      a
      Subscriber instructs MLAI to combine subscriptions or investments involving
      any
      plan subject to Section 4975 of the Code or the provisions of ERISA, the
      Subscriber is deemed to represent that the aggregation of such plans with other
      accounts for any purpose relating to FuturesAccess or HedgeAccess does not
      result in an act of self-dealing under the prohibited transaction provisions
      of
      Section 4975 of the Code or Section 406 of ERISA.

     

    Prior
      to
      April 1, 2006, an Investor’s class eligibility was determined based on such
      Investor’s aggregate subscriptions (excluding exchanges) in FuturesAccess
      overall as well as, in the case of Class D Units, aggregate subscriptions
      (including exchanges) into a particular FuturesAccess Fund, and redemptions
      were
      not netted against subscriptions for purposes of determining Class I and
      Class D eligibility.  Effective April 1, 2006, an Investor’s
      Class I and Class D eligibility is determined not on the basis of
      aggregate subscriptions, but on the basis of an Investor’s total FuturesAccess
      Investment in FuturesAccess overall as well as, in the case of Class D
      Units, a particular FuturesAccess Fund, and an Investor’s redemptions will
      effectively be netted against such Investor’s subscriptions for purposes of
      determining Class I and Class D eligibility.

     

    An
      Investor’s “FuturesAccess Investment,” determined as of the beginning of each
      month, equals the greater of:

     

    
      	
              ·  

            	
              the
                market value of an Investor’s outstanding Units in FuturesAccess (or a
                particular FuturesAccess Fund, as applicable) based on the most recently
                available Net Asset Values, plus pending subscriptions;
                or

            


    

     

    
      	
              ·  

            	
              an
                Investor’s net subscriptions to FuturesAccess overall (or a particular
                FuturesAccess Fund, as applicable).  Net subscriptions means an
                Investor’s aggregate subscriptions less aggregate redemptions (not
                including pending redemptions).

            


    

     

    Except
      for purposes of determining Class D eligibility in a particular
      FuturesAccess Fund, the purchase and sale of Units in an exchange offset each
      other and have no effect on the amount of an Investor’s net subscriptions to
      FuturesAccess overall.

     

    FuturesAccess
      Investments attributable to certain related accounts may be combined for
      purposes of determining an Investor’s Class I and Class D
      eligibility.  In addition, Investors who participate in HedgeAccess
      (private investment funds that primarily trade securities rather than futures
      and forward contracts) are permitted to aggregate their investments in
      FuturesAccess and HedgeAccess for purposes of determining such Investors’
Class I and Class D eligibility, as well as determining sales
      commissions applicable to their purchases of Class A Units.

     

    There
      is
      no minimum FuturesAccess Investment required to invest in Class A or
      Class C Units (other than the $10,000 minimum investment in any
      FuturesAccess Fund).

      less than $5,000,000 makes an additional subscription which causes such
      Investor’s FuturesAccess Investment to equal or exceed $5,000,000 (including the
      new subscription), the entire new subscription will be invested in Class I
      Units.  The Investor’s existing Units (if any) will not be converted
      from Class A or Class C (as the case may be) to Class I Units,
      but all subsequent subscriptions and exchanges made by such Investor will be
      for
      Class I Units.

     

    Class D
      eligibility is determined on both an individual FuturesAccess Fund and an
      overall FuturesAccess basis.  For Investors whose initial subscription
      to any one FuturesAccess Fund equals or exceeds $5,000,000, the Investor will
      receive Class D Units, where available, in that FuturesAccess
      Fund.  If an Investor, whose FuturesAccess Investment in a particular
      FuturesAccess Fund is less than $5,000,000, makes an additional subscription
      or
      exchange into that FuturesAccess Fund which causes such Investor’s FuturesAccess
      Investment to equal or exceed $5,000,000 (including the new subscription or
      exchange), the entire new subscription or exchange into that FuturesAccess
      Fund
      will be invested in Class D Units.  The Investor’s existing Units
      in that FuturesAccess Fund will not be converted to Class D Units, but all
      subsequent subscriptions or exchanges made by such Investor into the same
      FuturesAccess Fund will be for Class D Units.  However,
      notwithstanding the fact that an Investor’s FuturesAccess Investment in a
      particular FuturesAccess Fund equals or exceeds $5,000,000, if that Investor
      invests or exchanges into another FuturesAccess Fund in which such Investor’s
      FuturesAccess Investment is less than $5,000,000, such Investor will not receive
      Class D Units in such other FuturesAccess Fund (except as described in the
      next paragraph).

     

    New
      Investors whose initial subscription equals or exceeds $15,000,000 will be
      issued Class D Units in each FuturesAccess Fund in which they invest and
      which offers different Classes of Units, irrespective of whether such Investor’s
      FuturesAccess Investments in any one FuturesAccess Fund equals or exceeds
      $5,000,000.  If an existing Investor whose FuturesAccess Investment is
      less than $15,000,000 makes an additional subscription immediately after which
      such Investor’s FuturesAccess Investment equals or exceeds $15,000,000
      (including the new subscription), the entire new subscription will be invested
      in Class D Units.  The Investor’s existing Units will not be
      converted to Class D Units, but all subsequent subscriptions and exchanges
      made by such Investor will be for Class D Units.

     

    Subscriptions
      made to all FuturesAccess Funds are aggregated for purposes of determining
      whether an Investor will receive Class I Units, and for purposes of
      determining whether an Investor’s subscriptions to multiple FuturesAccess Funds
      permit such Investor to receive Class D Units.

     

    Prior
      to
      April 1, 2006, Redemptions were not netted against subscriptions for
      purposes of determining Class I or Class D Unit
      eligibility.  After April 1, 2006, Redemptions are netted against
      subscriptions for purposes of determining Class I or Class D Unit
      eligibility.  For subscriptions effective on or after April 1,
      2006, Class D and Class I eligibility will be determined not on the
      basis of aggregate subscriptions, but on the basis of an Investor’s total
“FuturesAccess Investment” in FuturesAccess overall as well as, in the case of
      Class D Units, a particular FuturesAccess Fund, as described
      above.

     

    Once
      an
      Investor is issued Class I or Class D Units, such Investor will
      continue to be issued Class I or Class D Units (as applicable)
      irrespective of the level of such Investor’s FuturesAccess Investment at any
      future date.  However, if an Investor withdraws entirely from
      FuturesAccess or a particular FuturesAccess Fund and subsequently reinvests,
      such Investor’s Class I and/or Class D Unit eligibility will be
      determined from the date of such reinvestment as if the Investor had never
      previously participated in FuturesAccess or such FuturesAccess
      Fund.

     

    Merrill
      Lynch officers and employees invest in Class I Units without regard to the
      $5,000,000 minimum FuturesAccess Investment requirement.  Such
      exemption from the minimum FuturesAccess Investment requirement will not be
      generally available to other Investors.

    Certain
      Merrill Lynch clients may invest in Class I Units on different terms than
      those described herein, depending on the type of Merrill Lynch Account held
      by
      such clients.  In addition, FuturesAccess Funds may from time to time
      offer to certain Merrill Lynch clients a customized Class of Units having
      different financial terms than those described herein, provided that doing
      so
      does not have a material adverse effect on existing Investors.  Such
      customized Classes will generally be designated for Investors who are subject
      to
      additional fees on their investments in FuturesAccess Funds depending on the
      type of Merrill Lynch Account held by such Investors, but also may be so
      designated for other reasons.

     

    Although
      the Units of the Trend-Following Fund currently are not divided into Classes,
      amounts subscribed to or redeemed from the Trend-Following Fund will be included
      in the calculation of an Investor’s FuturesAccess Investment in determining such
      Investor’s class eligibility with respect to the other FuturesAccess
      Funds.

     

    Investors
      who are “Qualified Purchasers” (generally, individuals with $5,000,000 and
      entities with $25,000,000 of “Net Investments”) may also participate in
      HedgeAccess, which provides access to “hedge funds” (private investment funds
      which primarily trade securities).  Investors who participate in both
      Programs may aggregate their investments in both Programs toward the minimum
      investment levels established for acquiring Class I and Class D Units
      established for HedgeAccess and vice versa.  In deciding whether to
      aggregate investments, fiduciaries of IRAs and fiduciaries of plans that are
      subject to ERISA must ensure that such combination does not result in an act
      of
      self-dealing under the prohibited transaction provisions of Section 4975 of
      the Code or Section 406 of ERISA.

     

    The
      Exchange Privilege

     

    Subject
      to any restrictions imposed by the various FuturesAccess Funds (either
      temporarily or on an ongoing basis), Investors may generally exchange their
      Units in any FuturesAccess Fund for those of any other FuturesAccess Fund
      (subject to FuturesAccess Fund availability and Investor eligibility) as of
      the
      end of each calendar month on at least 10 days’ prior notice.

     

    Exchanges
      are generally made between Units of the same Class (except as described
      below) at Net Asset Value as of the effective date of the
      exchange.  However, the Units of the Trend-Following Fund currently
      are not divided into Classes, and accordingly, Investors exchanging into the
      Units of the Trend-Following Fund will receive Units of a single
      Class.  Amounts subscribed to or redeemed from the Trend-Following
      Fund will, however, be included in the calculation of an Investor’s
      FuturesAccess Investment in determining such Investor’s Class eligibility
      when exchanging Units of the Trend-Following Fund for Units of the other
      FuturesAccess Funds.

     

    An
      Investor exchanging Class A, Class C or Class I Units in a
      FuturesAccess Fund for Units in another FuturesAccess Fund will generally
      receive Units of the same Class in such other FuturesAccess
      Fund.  However, if an exchange brings an Investor’s FuturesAccess
      Investments in a particular FuturesAccess Fund to or over the $5,000,000
      threshold, the entire exchange will be invested in Class D
      Units.  The Investor’s existing Units in such FuturesAccess Fund will
      not be converted to Class D Units, but all subsequent subscriptions and
      exchanges by such Investor into such FuturesAccess Fund will be for Class D
      Units.

     

    An
      Investor exchanging Class D Units in a FuturesAccess Fund for Units in
      another FuturesAccess Fund will be issued Class I Units in the latter if
      the Investor’s FuturesAccess Investments in the latter FuturesAccess Fund total
      less than $5,000,000 and such Investor’s FuturesAccess Investments in
      FuturesAccess overall do not equal or exceed $15,000,000.  See the
      rules regarding exchanges of Class D Units, discussed in the “Summary —
General Terms of the Classes of Units” in the Part One (A) Confidential
      Program Document:  FuturesAccess Program General
      Information.

     

    The
      same Class of Units may be subject to different brokerage commissions as
      well as different Management and Performance Fees in different FuturesAccess
      Funds.

    Exchanges
      are permitted into a FuturesAccess Fund in $10,000 minimums.  There
      are no minimum increments in which exchanges must be made.  Exchanges
      into a FuturesAccess Fund may be aggregated with subscriptions into such
      FuturesAccess Fund by the same Investor.  In deciding whether to
      aggregate exchanges and subscriptions, fiduciaries of IRAs and fiduciaries
      of
      plans that are subject to ERISA must ensure that such combination does not
      result in an act of self-dealing under the prohibited transaction provisions
      of
      Section 4975 of the Code or Section 406 of ERISA.

     

    If,
      immediately following an exchange out of a FuturesAccess Fund, an Investor
      would
      have an investment of less than $10,000 in such FuturesAccess Fund, such
      Investor must exchange out of such Investor’s entire investment in such
      FuturesAccess Fund.

     

    No
      sales
      commissions, redemption or exchange charges will be assessed on any
      exchange.  Class A Units acquired in an exchange will be treated
      as if they have been outstanding since the date of their initial issuance for
      purposes of determining the ongoing compensation due to the Selling Agent (which
      begins only in the thirteenth month after Class A Units are
      issued).  Otherwise, an exchange into the Units of a given
      FuturesAccess Fund will be made on the same terms as making a new subscription
      for such Units.  Any accrued Performance Fees will be assessed when an
      Investor exchanges out of a FuturesAccess Fund.

     

    For
      tax
      purposes, exchanges will be treated as redemptions from the FuturesAccess
      Fund(s) from which Units are exchanged and subscriptions into the FuturesAccess
      Fund(s) into which Units are exchanged.

     

    Units
      acquired in an exchange are indistinguishable from Units acquired with a new
      subscription (except in respect of determining ongoing compensation due in
      respect of Class A Units).  If there is a loss carryforward with
      respect to the Performance Fee calculation for a FuturesAccess Fund out of
      which
      an Investor exchanges, that loss carryforward will be forfeited and will have
      no
      effect on the calculation of the Performance Fee due in respect of the
      FuturesAccess Fund into which such Investor exchanges.

     

    Only
      whole Units will be issued or may be exchanged.  Any dollar amounts
      exchanged which cannot be reinvested into whole Units will be credited to the
      exchanging Investor’s Merrill Lynch Account.

     

    MLAI
      reserves the right to restrict or terminate the Exchange Privilege at any
      time.  See “Restriction, Suspension or Termination of the Exchange
      Privilege,” below.  NO ONE SHOULD INVEST IN FUTURESACCESS IN RELIANCE
      ON THE EXCHANGE PRIVILEGE.

     

    A
      new Signature Page must be submitted for each purchase or exchange, even if
      an
      Investor already owns Units of the FuturesAccess Fund(s) into which the purchase
      or exchange is being made.

     

    ALTHOUGH
      FUTURESACCESS ALLOWS INVESTORS TO REALLOCATE INVESTMENTS THROUGH EXCHANGES
      AMONG
      FUTURESACCESS FUNDS, INVESTORS SHOULD BE AWARE THAT FUTURESACCESS IS NOT
      DESIGNED TO ENCOURAGE FREQUENT EXCHANGES, WHICH MAY DETRACT FROM
      RETURNS.

    For
      Use by U.S. Investors

     

    This
      Subscription Agreement relates to your participation in one or more
      FuturesAccess Funds included in FuturesAccess.  You must identify the
      particular FuturesAccess Funds(s) into which you wish to invest or exchange
      on
      the Signature Page attached hereto.  You must submit a new Signature
      Page each time you wish to invest in or exchange among FuturesAccess
      Funds.

     

    ___________________

    
The
      Subscriber must complete the attached Signature Page indicating the specific
      FuturesAccess Fund(s) to which such Subscriber wishes to subscribe, or into
      which the Subscriber wishes to exchange, and acknowledging receipt of the
      Confidential Program Disclosure Document.

     

    By
      completing and executing the Signature Page, the Subscriber is confirming that
      the Subscriber has the level of financial sophistication necessary to evaluate
      the merits and risks of specialized, non-traditional investments such as the
      FuturesAccess Funds, and understands that the speculative and illiquid nature
      of
      an investment in one or more of the FuturesAccess Funds makes such investment
      suitable only for a limited portion of the Subscriber’s portfolio.

     

    The
      Subscriber also understands and agrees that, although MLAI will use reasonable
      efforts to keep the information provided in each Signature Page strictly
      confidential, MLAI and/or one or more FuturesAccess Funds and/or MLAI may
      present the Signature Page and the information provided therein to such parties
      as MLAI deems advisable if called upon to establish the availability under
      any
      applicable law of an exemption from registration for the Units, to the extent
      necessary for any of the FuturesAccess Funds, MLAI or any of their respective
      affiliates, to comply with applicable law, if such information is or may be
      relevant to an issue in any action, suit or proceeding to which any
      FuturesAccess Fund, MLAI or any of their respective affiliates is a party or
      by
      which any of the foregoing are or may be bound, or upon the request of any
      regulatory, governmental or self-regulatory authority.

     

    I.           Representations,
      Warranties and Agreements of the Subscriber.  As an inducement to
      MLAI to accept the Subscriber’s Subscription Agreement, the Subscriber
      represents and warrants to MLAI and the applicable FuturesAccess Fund(s) as
      follows:

                is at least 21 years old and is legally competent to execute and
                deliver
                the Signature Page and to comply with the terms of this Subscription

      executing and delivering the Signature Page or making an investment or exchange

    Entity

                is able
                to bear the economic risk of a speculative investment such as the
                FuturesAccess Funds, including the risk of losing the Subscriber’s entire

                Page if the Subscriber is “benefit plan investor” and, if so, if the
                Subscriber is a Plan Assets entity, as defined below.  The term
                “benefit plan investor” refers to any “employee benefit plan” as defined
                in, and subject to the fiduciary responsibility provisions of ERISA,
                (ii) any “plan” as defined in and subject to Section 4975 of the
                Code, and (iii) any entity (a “Plan Assets Entity”) deemed for any
                purpose of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code to hold assets of any
                such employee benefit plan or plan due to investments made in such
                entity
                by already described benefit plan investors.  Benefit plan
                investors include, but are not limited to, corporate pension and
                profit
                sharing plans, “simplified employee pension plans,” Keogh plans for self
                employed individuals (including partners), individual retirement
                accounts,
                medical benefit plans, life insurance plans, church plans that have
                elected to be subject to ERISA, bank commingled trust funds, or insurance

                any trust agreement thereunder; (d) the Plan’s investment in such

      notify MLAI should the Subscriber become aware of any change in the information
      set forth in this representation.  The Subscriber acknowledges that,
      by law, MLAI may be obligated to “freeze the account” of the Subscriber, either
      by prohibiting additional subscriptions, declining any redemption requests
      and/or segregating the assets in the account in compliance with governmental
      regulations, and MLAI may also be required to report such action and to disclose
      the Subscriber’s identity to OFAC. The Subscriber represents and warrants that
      all of the information which it has provided to the Program in connection with
      this Subscription Agreement is true and correct, and agrees to provide any
      information MLAI or its agents deem necessary to comply with MLAI’s anti-money
      laundering program and related responsibilities from time to time.  If
      the Subscriber is an intermediary subscribing to the Program as a record owner
