IN SO DOING, YOU SHOULD BE AWARE THAT FUTURES AND OPTION TRADING CAN QUICKLY LEAD TO LARGE LOSSES, AS WELL AS GAINS.

IN ADDITION, RESTRICTIONS ON REDEMPTIONS MAY AFFECT YOUR ABILITY TO WITHDRAW YOUR PARTICIPATION IN THE POOL.

IN SOME CASES, COMMODITY POOLS MAY BE SUBJECT TO SUBSTANTIAL CHARGES FOR MANAGEMENT, ADVISORY AND BROKERAGE FEES.

THE REGULATIONS OF THE COMMODITY FUTURES TRADING COMMISSION ("CFTC") REQUIRE THAT PROSPECTIVE INVESTORS RECEIVE A DISCLOSURE DOCUMENT WHEN THEY ARE SOLICITED TO INVEST FUNDS IN A COMMODITY POOL AND THAT CERTAIN RISK FACTORS BE HIGHLIGHTED. THIS DOCUMENT IS READILY ACCESSIBLE AT THIS SITE AND FROM NASD MEMBERS, WHICH ARE SELLING AGENTS OF THE BROOKSHIRE RAW MATERIALS (U.S.) TRUST.
