PART I

Item 1. Business

(a) General development of business

Man-AHL Diversified I L.P., a Delaware limited partnership (the “Partnership”), was organized in September 1997 under the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act and commenced trading operations on April 3, 1998, for the purpose of engaging in the speculative trading of physical commodities, futures and forward contracts and related instruments. The Partnership was formerly named AHL Diversified (USA) L.P., but was renamed in February 2002. The Partnership is a “feeder” fund in a “master-feeder” structure, whereby the Partnership invests substantially all of its assets in Man AHL Diversified Trading Company L.P. (the “Trading Company”). AHL Partners LLP (the “Trading Advisor”), a United Kingdom limited liability partnership, is the Partnership’s and the Trading Company’s trading advisor. The Trading Advisor also serves as the Partnership’s commodity pool operator. Man Investments (USA) Corp. (the “General Partner”), a Delaware corporation, is the Partnership’s general partner. The Trading Advisor is an affiliate of the General Partner. Man Investments Holdings Limited, a United Kingdom holding company that is part of Man Group plc, a United Kingdom public limited company, is the sole shareholder of the Trading Advisor, and Man Investments Holdings Inc., a Delaware corporation that is part of Man Group plc, is the sole shareholder of the General Partner.

On January 28, 2008, the Partnership filed a registration statement under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the “Exchange Act”). The registration statement, which was subsequently amended, became effective on or about March 28, 2008. The Partnership offers two classes of units of limited partnership interest in the Partnership (“Units”): Class A Units are generally offered; Class B Units are offered to employee benefit plans, IRAs and other retirement plans and accounts. The two Classes of Units are identical to each other except that Class B Units may be purchased, transferred, held and redeemed in a minimum amount of $10,000. On April 1, 2009, the Partnership added two new series of Units: Class A Series 2 Units (“Class A-2”) and Class B Series 2 Units (“Class B-2”). Except as described in section (c) below, Class A-2 and Class B-2 units are identical to Class A and B units, respectfully.

Although the Partnership uses the term “class” to distinguish between certain interests in the Partnership, the Partnership does not believe that the differences between such interests are sufficient to make them separate “classes” under Section 12(g) of the Exchange Act, as all the interests in the Partnership, regardless of “class,” are of substantially similar character and the holders of which enjoy substantially similar rights and privileges. The holders of interests in the Partnership (regardless of “class”) share pro rata in the Partnership’s profits and losses, enjoying no preferences over one another during the life of the Partnership or upon dissolution and otherwise have identical rights under the Limited Partnership Agreement, the only differences among the “classes” relating to fees and minimum investment.

The General Partner became the general partner of the Partnership as of April 1, 2005 when Man-AHL (USA) Corp., the Partnership’s original general partner and trading advisor (“Man-AHL”), appointed it as such. In addition to the appointment of the General Partner, Man-AHL appointed Man-AHL (USA) Limited to serve as the trading advisor to the Partnership commencing as of April 1, 2005. Following the appointments of the General Partner as a general partner and Man-AHL (USA) Limited as the trading advisor, Man-AHL resigned as a general partner and trading advisor of the Partnership. The General Partner agreed to continue the Partnership without interruption or change. On June 1, 2014, the General Partner appointed the Trading Advisor as trading advisor of the Partnership, and Man-AHL (USA) Limited resigned as trading advisor. The Trading Advisor implements the same trading program and employs substantively the same personnel as did Man-AHL (USA) Limited. The General Partner controls and manages the business of the Partnership, but has otherwise delegated its investment management authority and commodity pool operator responsibilities with respect to the Partnership to the Trading Advisor. Purchasers of Units, as the Partnership’s “Limited Partners,” have no right to participate in management or control of the Partnership. The offices of the Partnership, where its books and records are kept, are located at the office of the General Partner: HSBC Tower, 452 5^th Ave., 27^th Floor, New York, NY, 10018; telephone (212) 649-6600.

(b) Financial information about segments

The Partnership’s business constitutes only one segment, i.e., a speculative commodity pool. The Partnership does not engage in sales of goods and services. Financial information regarding the Partnership’s business is set forth in the Partnership’s Financial Statements incorporated into Item 8 hereof and attached as Exhibit 13.1 hereto.

(c) Narrative description of business

The Partnership engages in speculative trading of physical commodities, futures contracts, spot and forward contracts, swaps and options and other related instruments, directly and indirectly through an investment in the Trading Company, pursuant to the trading strategies employed by the Trading Advisor. The Partnership invests substantially all of its assets in the Trading Company.

The investment objective of the Trading Advisor’s futures trading program (referred to herein as the “AHL Diversified Program”) is to deliver substantial capital growth for commensurate levels of volatility over the medium term, independent of the movement of the stock and bond markets, through the speculative trading, directly and indirectly, of physical commodities, futures contracts, spot and forward contracts, swaps and options on the foregoing, exchanges of futures for physical transactions and other investments (sometimes hereinafter referred to as ‘futures’) on domestic and international exchanges and markets (including the interbank and over-the-counter (“OTC”) markets).

The AHL Diversified Program employs a systematic, statistically based investment strategy that is designed to identify and capitalize on inefficiencies in markets around the world. A stable and robust trading and implementation infrastructure is then employed to capitalize on these trading opportunities. The trading systems are quantitative and primarily directional in nature, meaning that investment decisions are entirely driven by mathematical models based on market trends and other historic relationships. Trading signals are always generated systematically; thus the Trading Advisor does not engage in discretionary trading during drawdowns or at other times. Trading takes place around-the-clock and real-time price information is used to respond to price moves across a diverse range of global markets. The trade execution team operates alongside the investment management team in London. It operates 24 hours a day on a rotational eight-hour shift structure.

The trading process is the product of continuing research and development performed by the Trading Advisor (inclusive of its affiliates) since 1987. Although the underlying investment methodology is proprietary and the precise details confidential, the guiding principles have remained unchanged through the years: diversification, discipline, efficiency, rigorous risk management and ongoing research.

The AHL Diversified Program invests in a diversified portfolio of instruments which may include futures, options and forward contracts, swaps and other financial derivative instruments both on and off exchange. The AHL Diversified Program trades globally in several market sectors, including, without limitation, currencies, bonds, energies, stock indices, interest rates, metals and agriculture.

In addition to sector and market diversification, the AHL Diversified Program seeks to achieve diversification by combining various systems driven by computerized processes or trading algorithms, which sample prices in real time and measure price momentum and breakouts. In aggregate, the systems run more than 2,000 price samples each day spread across the 240 or so markets. The trading algorithms aim mainly to capture price trends and close out positions when there is a high probability of a different trend developing, although the AHL Diversified Program may also include algorithmic systems based on quantitative fundamental data that can be captured efficiently, such as interest rate data. Another aspect of diversification is the fact that the various systems generate signals across different time frames, ranging from two to three days to several months, which helps to reduce the risk of the AHL Diversified Program.

2

In line with the principle of diversification, the approach to portfolio construction and asset allocation is premised on the importance of deploying investment capital across the full range of sectors and markets. Particular attention is paid to correlation of markets and sectors, expected returns, trading costs and market liquidity. Portfolios are regularly reviewed and, when necessary, adjusted to reflect changes in these factors. The Trading Advisor also has a process for adjusting market risk exposure in real time to reflect changes in the volatility of individual markets.

The integrity of the AHL Diversified Program’s defined investment style is ensured by adherence to a rigorous control process. All the strategies and systems applied by the Trading Advisor are designed to target defined volatility levels rather than returns, and the investment process is underpinned by computer-supported analytical instruments, disciplined real-time risk control and management information systems. As risk control is integral to each part of the investment process, risk management consists primarily of monitoring risk measures and ensuring the systems remain within prescribed limits. A proprietary risk measurement method similar to the industry standard “value-at-risk” helps ensure that the rule-based decisions that drive the investment process remain within predefined risk parameters. Margin-to-equity ratios are monitored daily, and the level of exposure in each market is quantifiable at any time and is adjusted in accordance with market volatility. Market correlation is closely monitored to prevent over-concentration of risk and ensure optimal portfolio weightings. Market liquidity is examined with the objective of ensuring that the Trading Company will be able to initiate and close out trades as indicated by AHL Diversified Program’s systems at market prices, while brokerage selection and trade execution are continually monitored with the objective of ensuring quality market access.

As the success of the AHL Diversified Program is largely dependent on its systems, the Trading Advisor is committed to investing in leading computer technology. The Trading Advisor (inclusive of affiliates) also maintains a disaster recovery site where a back-up trading system runs permanently and in parallel with the main system.

The AHL Diversified Program uses margin and considerable leverage to reach model allocations.

The AHL Diversified Program is supported by a dedicated team of investment specialists that continually seek to extend the range and versatility of the original investment techniques. As such, the Trading Advisor may increase the number and diversity of markets, strategies and instruments traded directly or indirectly by the AHL Diversified Program.

The Trading Advisor is paid a monthly management fee, payable in arrears, in an amount equal to 0.1667% of the month-end Net Asset Value of the Partnership (as defined in the Partnership’s Sixth Amended and Restated Limited Partnership Agreement, as the same may be amended or supplemented from time to time (the “Agreement”)) whether or not the Partnership is profitable (approximately 2% annually). The General Partner is paid a monthly general partner administrative fee in an amount equal to 0.0833% of the month-end Net Asset Value of the Partnership whether or not the Partnership is profitable (approximately 1% annually). The Trading Advisor may pay a portion of its management fee to the General Partner, and the General Partner may share a portion of its administrative fee with the Placement Agent (as defined below).

The Partnership will pay the Trading Advisor an incentive fee equal to 20% of the Net New Appreciation (as defined in the Agreement), if any, achieved by the Partnership as of the end of such calendar month. Net New Appreciation achieved during a calendar month means the excess, if any, of (a) the Net Asset Value of the Partnership as of the end of a calendar month (without reduction for any incentive fees accrued or paid to the Trading Advisor for the calendar month or for any redemptions or distributions effected during or as of the end of such calendar month and without increase for any additional capital contributions effected during or as of the end of such calendar month) over (b) the Net Asset Value of the Partnership as of the end of the most recent prior calendar month for which an incentive fee was accrued or paid to the Trading Advisor, with clause (b) reduced by the amount of the incentive fee accrued or paid for such prior calendar month and also reduced by any redemptions or distributions, and increased by any contributions, effected as of or subsequent to the end of such prior calendar month through the first day of the calendar month referred to in clause (a), above.

Man Investments Inc., an affiliate of the General Partner and Trading Advisor, is the lead placement agent for the Partnership (the “Placement Agent”). In connection with various services provided by the Placement Agent to the Partnership related to the offer and sale of interests in the Partnership and the ongoing servicing of its investors, the Partnership will pay the Placement Agent a servicing fee equal to, in respect to Class A Units and Class B Units, 0.0833% of the month-end Net Asset Value of such Units (approximately 1% annually), and in respect of Class A-2 Units and Class B-2 Units, 0.0625% of the month-end Net Asset Value of such Units (approximately 0.75% annually), whether or not the Partnership is profitable as of the end of each month. The Placement Agent may pass all or a portion of the servicing fee on to certain other selling and services agents. In addition, Units purchased through such selling and services agents may be subject to the payment of an additional upfront selling commission of up to 3% of the purchase price of the Units.

The Partnership’s organizational and initial offering fees and expenses were approximately $50,000 (including its pro-rata share of the Trading Company’s organizational fees and expenses) and have been paid by the Partnership. Such organizational fees and expenses (excluding promotional and offering fees and expenses) have been completely amortized. The Partnership pays all of its expenses incurred in the ordinary course of its business. The Partnership also pays its extraordinary expenses, if any.

The Trading Company utilizes a number of brokers in the performance of its trading activities. Credit Suisse Securities (USA), J.P. Morgan Securities LLC and Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated serve as the Trading Company’s futures brokers; the Royal Bank of Scotland, HSBC, Credit Suisse Securities (USA) and Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch serve as the Trading Company’s foreign exchange prime brokers; J.P. Morgan Chase Bank, N.A. and Credit Suisse Securities (USA) also act as the clearing members for centrally cleared credit default swap index transactions engaged in by the Trading Company; and the Trading Company conducts certain OTC interest rate swap trading through the JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., Royal Bank of Scotland and Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch (collectively, the “Brokers”). The Partnership is charged brokerage commissions at institutional rates, inclusive of all applicable National Futures Association (the “NFA”), exchange, clearing and other transaction fees. In connection with trading spot and forward contracts in the interbank foreign currency markets, the Partnership pays clearing fees of between $3.25 and $4.00 per transaction as well as dealer profits, which cannot be quantified, embedded in dealer quotes.

The Partnership invests substantially all of its assets in the Trading Company. Most of the Trading Company’s assets will be held in cash or United States (“U.S.”) government securities in accounts in the name of the Trading Company at the brokers or a bank, which currently is The Bank of New York Mellon and in order to conduct futures trading activities, will be transferred, as necessary, into segregated accounts at the brokers. Approximately 20% to 40% of the Trading Company’s assets will be committed as margin for futures positions. The brokers may receive compensating balance treatment and excess interest income on the Partnership’s assets, through the Trading Company, held at the brokers in the form of cash.

The Trading Company engages in trading on non-U.S. exchanges and markets. In connection with trading on non-U.S. exchanges and markets, the brokers may either maintain Trading Company assets in accordance with the requirements of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (the “CFTC”) Rule 30.7 or may redeposit Trading Company assets with non-U.S. banks and brokers which may not be subject to regulatory schemes comparable to those applicable to the Brokers.

Regulation

Under the Commodity Exchange Act, as amended (the “CEA”), commodity exchanges and trading in futures and swaps (as defined in the CEA) are subject to regulation by the CFTC. The NFA, a “registered futures association” under the CEA, is the only non-exchange self-regulatory organization for futures industry professionals. The CFTC has delegated to the NFA responsibility for the registration of “commodity trading advisors,” “commodity pool operators,” “futures commission merchants,” “swap dealers,” “introducing brokers” and their respective associated persons and “floor brokers” and “floor traders.” The CEA requires commodity

4

pool operators and commodity trading advisors, such as the General Partner and Trading Advisor, respectively, and commodity brokers, swap dealers, or futures commission merchants to be registered and to comply with various reporting and record keeping requirements. The CFTC may suspend a commodity pool operator’s or trading advisor’s registration if it finds that its trading practices tend to disrupt orderly market conditions or in certain other situations. In the event that the registration of the Trading Advisor as a commodity pool operator or commodity trading advisor were terminated or suspended, the Trading Advisor would be unable to fulfill its obligations as the Partnership’s commodity pool operator or implement the AHL Diversified Program on behalf of the Partnership. Should the Trading Advisor’s registrations be suspended, termination of the Partnership might result.

In addition to such registration requirements, the CFTC and certain commodity exchanges have established limits on the maximum net long or net short position which any person may hold or control in particular commodities. Most exchanges also limit the changes in futures contract prices that may occur during a single trading day.

The CFTC adopted a separate position limits rule for 28 so-called “exempt” (i.e. metals and energy) and agricultural futures and options contracts and their economically equivalent swap contracts. Limits in spot months were generally to be set at 25% of the official estimated deliverable supply of the underlying commodity and, in a non-spot month, a percentage of the average aggregate 12-month rolling open interest in all months (swaps and futures) for each contract. Although substantial portions of this rule were vacated by court action, the CFTC, in November 2013, proposed substantially similar rules to its prior position limits regime. It is as yet unclear whether the Trading Advisor will be required to modify its trading on behalf of its clients, including the Trading Company, with respect to certain futures contracts which may have an adverse affect the Partnership.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

Risk of Loss. Investing in the Partnership is speculative and involves substantial risks. You should not invest unless you can afford to lose your entire investment.

General. The transactions in which the Trading Advisor generally will engage on behalf of the Partnership involve significant risks. Growing competition may limit the Trading Advisor’s ability to take advantage of trading opportunities in rapidly changing markets. No assurance can be given that investors will realize a profit on their investment. Moreover, investors may lose all or some of their investment. Because of the nature of the trading activities, the results of the Partnership’s operations may fluctuate from month to month and from period to period. Accordingly, investors should understand that the results of a particular period will not necessarily be indicative of results in future periods.

Markets Are Volatile and Difficult to Predict. Trading in futures is a speculative activity. Futures prices may be highly volatile. Market prices are difficult to predict and are influenced by many factors, including: changes in interest rates; governmental, agricultural, trade, fiscal, monetary and exchange control programs and policies; weather and climate conditions; changing supply and demand relationships; national and international political and economic events; and the changing philosophies and emotions of market participants. In addition, governments intervene in particular markets from time to time, both directly and by regulation, often with the intent to influence prices. The effects of government intervention may be particularly significant in the financial instrument and currency markets, and may cause such markets to move rapidly.

Trading Is Highly Leveraged. The low margin deposits normally required in futures trading permit an extremely high degree of leverage. A relatively small movement in the price of a futures contract may result in immediate and substantial loss or gain to a trader holding a position in such contract. For example, if at the time of purchase 10% of the price of a futures contract is deposited as margin, a 10% decrease in the price of the futures contract would, if the contract were then closed out, result in a total loss of the margin deposit before any

5

deduction for brokerage commissions. Consequently, like other leveraged investments, a futures trade may result in losses in excess of the amount invested. Forward contracts involve similar leverage and also may require deposits of margin as collateral. Swaps and OTC derivative instruments are also highly leveraged transactions.

Markets May Be Illiquid. At times, it may not be possible for the Trading Advisor to obtain execution of a buy or sell order at the desired price or to liquidate an open position, either due to market conditions on exchanges or due to the operation of “daily price fluctuation limits” or “circuit breakers.” For example, most U.S. commodity exchanges limit fluctuations in most futures contract prices during a single day by regulations referred to as “daily price fluctuation limits” or “daily limits.” During a single trading day, no trades may be executed at prices beyond the daily limit. Futures contract prices occasionally have moved to the daily limit for several consecutive days with little or no trading.

Even when futures prices have not moved to the daily limit, the Trading Advisor might not be able to obtain execution of trades at favorable prices if little trading in the contracts which the Trading Advisor wishes to trade is taking place. Also, an exchange or governmental authority may suspend or restrict trading on an exchange (or in particular futures traded on an exchange) or order the immediate settlement of a particular instrument.

Options trading may be restricted in the event that trading in the underlying instrument becomes restricted. Options trading also may be illiquid at times regardless of the condition of the market in the underlying instrument. In either event, it will be difficult for the Trading Advisor to realize gains or limit losses on option positions by offsetting them or to change positions in the market.

Trading in OTC derivative instruments is conducted with individual counterparties rather than on organized exchanges. There have been periods during which forward and swap contract dealers have refused to quote prices for forward and swap contracts or have quoted prices with an unusually wide spread between the bid and asked price.

Speculative Position Limits May Restrict Futures Trading. Speculative position limits prescribe the maximum net long or short futures contract and options positions which any person or group may hold or control in particular futures contracts. All futures contracts and options on futures contracts traded on commodity exchanges located in the United States, with the exception of contracts on certain major non-U.S. currencies, are subject to speculative position limits established either by the CFTC or the relevant exchange.

All trading accounts owned or managed by the Trading Advisor and its principals will be combined for the purposes of speculative position limits. Such limits could adversely affect the profitability of the Trading Company and, consequently, of the Partnership. For example, the Trading Advisor could be required to liquidate futures positions at an unfavorable time in order to comply with such limits. However, the Trading Advisor does not believe that existing speculative position limits will materially adversely affect its ability to manage the Trading Company’s account.

Cash Flow. Futures contract gains and losses are marked-to-market daily for purposes of determining margin requirements. Option positions generally are not, although short option positions will require additional margin if the market moves against the position. Due to these differences in margin treatment between futures and options, there may be periods in which positions on both sides must be closed down prematurely due to short term cash flow needs. If this were to occur during an adverse move in a spread or straddle relationship, a substantial loss could occur.

Decisions Based on Trends and Technical Analysis. The trading decisions of the Trading Advisor will be based in part on trading strategies which utilize mathematical analyses of technical factors relating to past market performance. The buy and sell signals generated by a technical, trend-following trading strategy are based upon a study of actual daily, weekly and monthly price fluctuations, volume variations and changes in open interest in the markets. The profitability of any technical, trend-following trading strategy depends upon the occurrence in

6

the future of significant, sustained price moves in some of the markets traded. The Trading Company and, consequently, the Partnership may incur substantial trading losses:

In the past there have been prolonged periods without sustained price moves in various markets. Presumably, such periods will recur. A series of volatile reverses in price trends may generate repeated entry and exit signals in trend-following systems, resulting in unprofitable transactions and increased brokerage commission expenses. Technical, trend-following trading systems are used by many other traders. At times, the use of such systems may:

Model and Data Risk. The Trading Advisor relies heavily on quantitative models (both proprietary models developed by the Trading Advisor (or affiliates), and those supplied by third parties, collectively “Models”) and information and data both developed by the Trading Advisor and those supplied by third parties (collectively, “Data”) rather than granting trade-by-trade discretion to the Trading Advisor’s investment professionals. Models and Data are used to construct sets of transactions and investments, to value investments or potential investments (including, without limitation, for trading purposes and for purposes of determining the Net Asset Value of the Partnership), to provide risk management insights and to assist in hedging the Partnership’s investments. Models and Data are known to have errors, omissions, imperfections and malfunctions (collectively, “System Events”). System Events in third-party Models are generally entirely outside of the control of the Trading Advisor.

The Trading Advisor seeks to reduce the incidence and impact of System Events through a certain degree of internal testing and real-time monitoring, and the use of independent safeguards in the overall portfolio management system and often, with respect to proprietary models, in the software code itself. Despite such testing, monitoring and independent safeguards, System Events will result in, among other things, the execution of unanticipated trades, the failure to execute anticipated trades, delays to the execution of anticipated trades, the failure to properly allocate trades, the failure to properly gather and organize available data, the failure to take certain hedging or risk reducing actions and/or the taking of actions which increase certain risk(s)—all of which may have materially negative effects on the Partnership and/or its returns.

The investment strategies of the Partnership are highly reliant on the gathering, cleaning, culling and analysis of large amounts of Data. Accordingly, Models rely heavily on appropriate Data inputs. However, it is not possible or practicable to factor all relevant, available Data into forecasts and/or trading decisions of the Models. The Trading Advisor will use its discretion to determine what Data to gather with respect to each investment strategy and what subset of that Data the Models take into account to produce forecasts which may have an impact on ultimate trading decisions. In addition, due to the automated nature of Data gathering, the volume and depth of Data available, the complexity and often manual nature of Data cleaning, and the fact that the substantial majority of Data comes from third-party sources, it is inevitable that not all desired and/or relevant Data will be available to, or processed by, the Trading Advisor at all times. If incorrect Data is fed into even a well-founded

7

Model, it may lead to a System Event subjecting the Partnership to loss. Further, even if Data is input correctly, “model prices” anticipated by the Data through the Models may differ substantially from market prices, especially for securities with complex characteristics, such as derivatives.

Where correct or complete Data is not available, the Trading Advisor may, and often will, continue to generate forecasts and make trading decisions based on the Data available to it. Additionally, the Trading Advisor may determine that certain available Data, while potentially useful in generating forecasts and/or making trade decisions, is not cost effective to gather due to either the technology costs or third-party vendor costs and, in such cases, the Trading Advisor will not utilize such Data. Limited Partners should be aware that there is no guarantee that any specific Data or type of Data will be utilized in generating forecasts or making trading decisions with respect to the Models, nor is there any guarantee that the Data actually utilized in generating forecasts or making trading decisions underlying the Models will be (i) the most accurate data available or (ii) free of errors. Limited Partners should assume that the Data set used in connection with the Models is limited and should understand that the foregoing risks associated with gathering, cleaning, culling and analysis of large amounts of Data are an inherent part of investing with a process-driven, systematic adviser such as the Trading Advisor.

When Models and Data prove to be incorrect, misleading or incomplete, any decisions made in reliance thereon expose the Partnership to potential risks. For example, by relying on Models and Data, the Trading Advisor may be induced to buy certain investments at prices that are too high, to sell certain other investments at prices that are too low, or to miss favorable opportunities altogether. Similarly, any hedging based on faulty Models and Data may prove to be unsuccessful and when determining the Net Asset Value of the Partnership, any valuations of the Partnership’s investments that are based on valuation Models may prove to be incorrect. In addition, Models may incorrectly forecast future behavior, leading to potential losses on a cash flow and/or a mark-to-market basis. Furthermore, in unforeseen or certain low-probability scenarios (often involving a market disruption of some kind), Models may produce unexpected results which may or may not be System Events.

Errors in Models and Data are often extremely difficult to detect, and, in the case of proprietary models and third-party models, the difficulty of detecting System Events may be exacerbated by the lack of design documents or specifications. Regardless of how difficult their detection appears in retrospect, some System Events will go undetected for long periods of time and some will never be detected. The degradation or impact caused by these System Events can compound over time. Finally, the Trading Advisor will detect certain System Events that it chooses, in its sole discretion, not to address or fix, and the third party software will lead to System Events known to the Trading Advisor that it chooses, in its sole discretion, not to address or fix. The Trading Advisor believes that the testing and monitoring performed on its models and third party models will enable the Trading Advisor to identify and address those System Events that a prudent person managing a process-driven, systematic and computerized investment program would identify and address by correcting the underlying issue(s) giving rise to the System Events or limiting the use of proprietary and third party models, generally or in a particular application. Limited Partners should assume that System Events and their ensuing risks and impact are an inherent part of investing with a process-driven, systematic advisor such as the Trading Advisor. Accordingly, the Trading Advisor does not expect to disclose discovered System Events to the Partnership or to Limited Partners.

The Partnership will bear the risks associated with the reliance on Models and Data including that the Partnership will bear all losses related to System Events unless otherwise determined by the Trading Advisor in accordance with its internal policies or as may be required by applicable law.

Trade Error Risk. The complex trading programs operated by the Trading Advisor and the speed and volume of transactions invariably result in occasional trades being executed which, with the benefit of hindsight, were not required by the trading program. To the extent an error is caused by a counterparty, such as a broker, the Trading Advisor generally attempts to recover any loss associated with such error from such counterparty. To the extent an error is caused by the Trading Advisor, a formalized process is in place for the resolution of such errors. Given the volume, diversity and complexity of transactions executed by the Trading Advisor on behalf of the

8

Partnership, investors should assume that trading errors (and similar errors) will occur. If such errors result in gains to the Partnership, such gains will be retained by the Partnership. However, if such errors result in losses, they will be borne by the Trading Advisor in accordance with its internal policies unless otherwise determined by the General Partner.

Trading in OTC Markets Will Expose the Partnership to Risks Not Applicable to Trading on Organized Exchanges. The Partnership, through the Trading Company, may engage in OTC derivative transactions, such as: currency forward contracts traded in the interbank market; options on currency forward contracts; and swap transactions.

In general, there is much less governmental regulation and supervision of transactions in the OTC markets than of transactions entered into on organized exchanges. Most of the protections afforded to participants on U.S. and certain non-U.S. exchanges, such as daily price fluctuation limits and the performance guarantee of an exchange clearinghouse, will not be available in connection with OTC transactions. Consequently, the Partnership will be exposed to greater risk of loss through default than if it confined its trading to organized exchanges.

A portion of the Partnership’s assets may be traded in forward contracts. Such forward contracts are generally not traded on exchanges and are executed directly through forward contract dealers. However, certain forward currency exchange contracts are regulated as swaps by the CFTC and have begun being voluntarily traded on swap execution facilities. Some of these contracts may be required to be centrally cleared by a regulated U.S. clearinghouse, and may be required to be traded on a regulated exchange in the future. There is no limitation on the daily price moves of forward contracts, and a dealer is not required to continue to make markets in such contracts. There have been periods during which forward contract dealers have refused to quote prices for forward contracts or have quoted prices with an unusually wide spread between the bid and asked price. Arrangements to trade forward contracts may therefore experience liquidity problems. The Partnership therefore will be subject to the risk of credit failure or the inability of or refusal of a forward contract dealer to perform with respect to its forward contracts.

When trading currency forward contracts, the Trading Company may hedge the foreign currencies in order to limit the Trading Company’s exposure to fluctuations in exchange rates. However, there is no guarantee that such hedging will be successful.

Enhanced Regulation of the OTC Derivatives Markets. The European Market Infrastructure Regulation (“EMIR”) seeks comprehensively to regulate the OTC derivatives market in Europe for the first time including, in particular, imposing mandatory central clearing, trade reporting and, for non-centrally cleared trades, risk management obligations on counterparties. Similarly, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Reform Act”), enacted in July 2010, includes provisions that substantially increase the regulation of the OTC derivatives markets for the first time. The Reform Act requires that a substantial portion of OTC derivatives must be executed in regulated markets and be submitted for clearing to regulated clearinghouses. For example, certain interest rate swaps, including certain forwards defined as swaps by the CFTC, and credit default index swaps are required by the CFTC to be submitted for clearing if traded by US persons. These OTC trades submitted for clearing will be subject to minimum initial and variation margin requirements set by the relevant clearinghouse, as well as possible CFTC-mandated margin requirements. OTC derivative dealers also are required to post margin to the clearinghouses through which they clear their customers’ trades instead of using such margin in their operations as was widely permitted before the Reform Act. Taken together, these regulatory developments have increased and will continue to increase the OTC derivative dealers’ costs, and these increased costs are generally passed through to other market participants in the form of higher upfront and mark-to-market margin, less favorable trade pricing, and the imposition of new or increased fees including clearing account maintenance fees.

The CFTC also now requires certain derivatives transactions that were previously executed on a bilateral basis in the OTC markets to be executed through a regulated futures or swap exchange or execution facility. The SEC is

9

also expected to impose similar requirements on certain security-based derivatives in the near future, though it is not yet clear when these parallel SEC requirements will go into effect. If the Trading Company executes derivatives transactions through such exchanges or execution facilities — and especially if it decides to become a direct member of one or more of these exchanges or execution facilities, the Trading Company would be subject to all of the rules of the exchange or execution facility, which would bring additional risks and liabilities, and potential additional requirements under applicable regulations and under rules of the relevant exchange or execution facility. Similarly, under EMIR, European regulators may require a substantial proportion of such derivatives transactions to be bought on exchange and/or centrally cleared. Such requirements may make it more difficult and costly for investment funds, including the Partnership and/or the Trading Company, to enter into highly tailored or customized transactions. They may also render certain strategies in which the Partnership might otherwise engage impossible or so costly that they will no longer be economical to implement. They may also increase the overall costs for OTC derivative dealers, which are likely to be passed along, at least partially, to market participants in the form of higher fees or less advantageous dealer marks. The overall impact of EMIR and the Reform Act on the Partnership remains uncertain and it is unclear how the OTC derivatives markets will adapt to these new regulatory regimes.

The “Volcker Rule” component of the Reform Act materially restricts proprietary speculative trading by banks, “bank holding companies” and other regulated entities. As a result, there has been a significant influx of new portfolio managers into private investment funds who had previously traded institutional proprietary accounts. Such influx can only increase the competition for the Partnership from other talented portfolio managers trading in the Partnership’s investment sector.

Exchanges for Physicals/Swaps/Risk. While not a regular practice for the Trading Company, it may in rare instances engage in transactions known as exchanges for physicals (“EFP”), exchanges for swaps (“EFS”), or exchanges for risk/OTC derivatives (“EFR”). An EFP/EFS/EFR is a purchase or sale of a spot commodity/swap/derivative, as applicable, in conjunction with an offsetting sale or purchase of a corresponding futures contract involving the same or equivalent underlying commodity or instrument, without making an open and competitive trade for the futures contract on the exchange. EFPs, EFSs and EFRs are a permitted exception to the general requirement of the CEA that all futures contracts must be competitively executed on an exchange. They are permitted pursuant to the rules of the relevant exchanges, which vary from exchange to exchange. If the EFP, EFS or EFR does not comply with specific exchange requirements, particularly regarding possessing documentation evidencing possession of the underlying commodity or instrument, then the CFTC or the exchange may deem the transaction to be an illegal off-exchange futures contract. In addition, every EFP, EFS or EFR involves the transfer of an underlying commodity or entry into a swap or derivative on a bilateral basis, as applicable, with a counterparty in exchange for a related cleared futures contract. There is, therefore, counterparty credit risk if the counterparty or its clearing member on the futures leg fails to perform. Unlike other futures contracts that are deemed cleared by the clearinghouse upon trade matching or at the end of the business day, futures contracts arising out of EFPs, EFSs or EFRs may, under various clearinghouse rules, not be deemed accepted by the clearinghouse until the next business day.

Options on Futures Contracts Are More Volatile Than Futures Contracts. The Trading Advisor may trade options on futures contracts. Options are speculative in nature and are highly leveraged. The purchaser of an option risks losing the entire purchase price of the option. The seller (writer) of an option risks losing the difference between the premium received for the option and the price of the underlying futures contract that the writer must purchase upon exercise of the option. Additionally, the seller and writer of the options lose any commissions and fees associated with such transactions. This could subject the writer to unlimited risk in the event of an increase in the price of the contract to be purchased or delivered. Successful trading of options on futures contracts requires a trader to accurately determine near-term market volatility because it often has an immediate impact on the price of outstanding options. Accurate determination of near-term volatility is more important to successful options trading than it is to long-term futures contract trading strategies because such volatility generally does not have as significant an effect on the prices of futures contracts.

Trading on Non-U.S. Exchanges and Markets Will Expose the Partnership to Risks Not Applicable to Trading on U.S. Exchanges and Markets. The Partnership, through the Trading Company, may engage in trading on non-U.S. exchanges and markets. The Partnership will be subject to the risk of fluctuations in the currency exchange rate between the local currency and the U.S. dollar and to the possibility of exchange controls. Trading on such exchanges and markets generally involves other risks not applicable to trading on U.S. exchanges and markets. For example, such exchanges and markets:

Institutional Risks. Institutions, such as banks and brokers, will have custody of the assets of the Partnership. These firms may encounter financial difficulties that impair the operating capabilities or the capital position of the Partnership, the Trading Company or the General Partner.

Counterparty Risk. The Partnership will be subject to the risk of the inability of counterparties to perform with respect to transactions, particularly uncleared swap and currency forward transactions, whether due to insolvency, bankruptcy or other causes, which could subject the Partnership to substantial losses. In an effort to mitigate such risks, the General Partner and Trading Advisor will attempt to limit transactions to counterparties, which are established, well-capitalized and creditworthy.

Affiliated Parties — Conflicts of Interest. Under the terms of the Limited Partnership Agreement, the General Partner has the authority to engage trading advisors to make trading decisions for the Partnership. Since the Trading Advisor is an affiliate of the General Partner, the General Partner has a conflict of interest with respect to its responsibilities to manage the Partnership for the benefit of the Limited Partners, and to prevent violations of the Partnership’s trading policies and to monitor for excessive trading by the Trading Advisor. In addition, the General Partner has a conflict of interest with respect to its responsibility to review the trading performance of the Partnership and a disincentive to terminate the advisory relationship between the Trading Advisor and the Partnership. There have been no arm’s-length negotiations with respect to the management and incentive fees that the Trading Advisor will charge the Trading Company or with respect to the other terms of the advisory agreement entered into with the Trading Advisor.

Item 5. Market for the Registrant’s Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities.

(a) Market Information.

There is no trading market for the Units, and none is likely to develop. Units may be redeemed upon 10 days’ written notice to the General Partner at their Net Asset Value as of the last business day of each calendar month; provided, however, that each Limited Partner must maintain a minimum investment of $25,000 and $10,000, respectively of Class A Units (or Class A-2 Units) and Class B Units (or Class B-2 Units), in the Partnership following any redemption initiated by such Limited Partner in order to remain invested in the Partnership.

(b) Holders.

As of December 31, 2015, there were 715 holders of Class A Units, 51 holders of Class A-2 Units, 745 holders of Class B Units and 1 holder of Class B-2 Units.

(c) Dividends.

No distributions or dividends have been made on the Units, and the General Partner has no present intention to make any.

(d) Securities Authorized for Issuance Under Equity Compensation Plans.

None.

(e) Recent Sales of Unregistered Securities; Use of Proceeds from Registered Securities.

Pursuant to the Partnership’s Limited Partnership Agreement, the Partnership may admit additional Limited Partners to the Partnership and permit additional capital contributions to be made to the Partnership as of the first business day of any calendar month or at such other times as the General Partner may determine. On October 1, 2015, November 1, 2015 and December 1, 2015, the Partnership sold Class A Units to existing and new Limited Partners in the amount of $2,661,801, $280,868 and $588,597, respectively; Class A-2 Units to existing and new Limited Partners in the amount of $0, $0 and $0, respectively; Class B Units to existing and new Limited Partners in the amount of $789,259, $263,498 and $431,000, respectively; and Class B-2 Units to existing and new Limited Partners in the amount of $0, $0 and $0, respectively. There were no underwriting discounts or commissions in connection with the sales of the Units described above.

(f) Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities.

Pursuant to the Partnership’s Limited Partnership Agreement, a Limited Partner may redeem some or all of its Units as of the last business day of each calendar month at the then current month-end Net Asset Value. The redemption of Units has no impact on the value of Units that remain outstanding, and Units are not reissued once redeemed. The following table summarizes the amount of Units redeemed during the three months ended December 31, 2015:

Item 6. Selected Financial Data

The following is a summary of operations for the fiscal years 2015, 2014, 2013, 2012 and 2011 and total assets of the Partnership at December 31, 2015, 2014, 2013, 2012 and 2011.

Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Reference is made to “Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data.” The information contained therein is essential to, and should be read in conjunction with, the following analysis.

Capital Resources and Liquidity

Units may be offered for sale as of the first business day, and may be redeemed as of the last business day, of each month.

The Partnership raises additional capital only through the sale of Units and capital is increased through trading profits (if any) and interest income. The Partnership does not engage in borrowing. The Partnership, not being an operating company, does not incur capital expenditures. It functions solely as a passive trading vehicle, investing the substantial majority of its assets in the Trading Company. Its remaining capital resources are used only as assets available to make further investments in the Trading Company and to pay Partnership expenses. Accordingly, the amount of capital raised for the Partnership should not have a significant impact on its operations.

Partnership assets not invested in the Trading Company are maintained in cash and cash equivalents in bank accounts or accounts with Citibank N.A. and The Bank of New York Mellon and are readily available to the Partnership. The Partnership may redeem any part or all of its limited partnership interest in the Trading Company at any month-end at the net asset value per unit of the Trading Company. The Trading Company’s assets are generally held as cash or cash equivalents which are used to margin futures and provide collateral for forward contracts and other OTC contract positions and are withdrawn, as necessary, to pay redemptions (to the Partnership and other investors in the Trading Company). Other than potential market-imposed limitations on liquidity, due, for example, to limited open interest in certain futures markets or to daily price fluctuation limits, which are inherent in the Trading Company’s futures trading, the Trading Company’s assets are highly liquid and are expected to remain so.

During its operations through December 31, 2015, the Partnership experienced no meaningful periods of illiquidity in any of the numerous markets in which it trades.

Critical Accounting Policies

The Partnership records its transactions in futures contracts, forward contracts and other derivatives, including related income and expenses, on a trade-date basis. Open futures contracts traded on an exchange are valued at fair value, which is based on the closing settlement price on the exchange where the futures contract is traded by the Partnership on the day with respect to which the Partnership’s Net Asset Value is being determined. Open forward contracts and other derivatives traded on the interbank market are valued at fair value at their settlement price on the day with respect to which the Partnership’s Net Asset Value is being determined. If the General Partner determines the fair value of an investment cannot be accurately determined pursuant to the foregoing methods, such investment shall be assigned such fair value as the General Partner may determine in its sole discretion.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions, such as accrual of expenses, that affect the amounts and disclosures reported in the financial statements. Based on the nature of the business and operations engaged in by the Partnership, the General Partner believes that the estimates utilized in preparing the Partnership’s financial statements are appropriate and reasonable; however, actual results could differ from the estimates. The estimates do not provide a range of possible results that would require the exercise of subjective judgment. The General Partner further believes that, based on the nature of the business and operations of the Partnership, no other reasonable assumptions relating to the application of the Partnership’s critical accounting estimates other than those to be used would likely result in materially different amounts from those reported. The Partnership’s significant accounting policies are described in detail in Note 2 to the Financial Statements.

15

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

Neither the Partnership nor the Trading Company engages in off-balance sheet arrangements with other entities.

Contractual Obligations

The Partnership does not enter into contractual obligations or commercial commitments to make future payments of a type that would be typical for an operating company or that would affect its liquidity or capital resources. The Partnership’s sole business is trading futures contracts, forward currency and other OTC contracts, both long (contracts to buy) and short (contracts to sell), and investing in cash and cash equivalents. All of the Partnership’s futures, forward and OTC contracts, other than certain currency forward contracts, are settled by offset, not delivery. The substantial majority of such contracts are for settlement within four to six months of the trade date and the substantial majority of such contracts are held by the Partnership for less than four to six months before being offset or rolled over into new contracts with similar maturities. The Partnership’s annual audited financial statements with the attached Trading Company’s annual audited financial statements, included as Exhibit 13.1 of this report, present a Condensed Schedule of Investments setting forth net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) of the Partnership’s open positions, both long and short, at December 31, 2015 fiscal year-end.

Allocations by Market Sector

The following table indicates the percentage of the Partnership’s assets allocated to initial margin for the Partnership’s open trading positions by market sector as of December 31, 2015. The Partnership’s capitalization was $173,101,434 as of December 31, 2015. Also see Item 7A, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk,” below.

Results of Operations

Due to the nature of the Partnership’s trading, the Partnership’s income or loss from operations may vary widely from period to period. Management cannot predict whether the Partnership’s future Net Asset Value per Unit will increase or experience a decline. The Partnership was organized in September 1997 under the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act and commenced operations on April 3, 1998.

Performance Summary

The Partnership is a speculative managed futures fund which trades pursuant to the AHL Diversified Program, indirectly through its investment in the Trading Company. The AHL Diversified Program is a futures and forward OTC price trend-following, trading system. The AHL Diversified Program is entirely quantitative in nature and implements trading positions on the basis of statistical analyses of past price histories. The AHL

16

Diversified Program, like most trend-following systems, is designed in the anticipation that most of its trades will be unprofitable; the objective of overall profitability depends on the system identifying certain major trends which occur and recognizing significant profits from participating in such trends.

The past performance of the AHL Diversified Program is not necessarily indicative of its future results. This is the case with all speculative trading strategies. Moreover, the markets in which the AHL Diversified Program is active have seen major changes in recent years, including the influx of entirely different classes of market participants. These changed circumstances may mean that the markets in which the Trading Advisor has previously traded on behalf of the Trading Company are not necessarily representative of those in which it trades on behalf of the Trading Company currently.

As a speculative futures fund, the Partnership (through the Trading Company) effectively maintains all of its capital in reserve. The Trading Company does not “buy” or “sell” futures or forward contracts in the traditional sense; rather, through taking positions in these markets, the Trading Company, and thus the Partnership indirectly, acquires loss/profit exposure and uses its capital to cover losses and provide margin (which constitutes a good faith deposit towards the Trading Company’s (but not the Partnership’s) obligation to pay such losses) to support its open positions. Each of the Partnership and the Trading Company maintains most of its capital in cash and cash equivalents.

Futures trading programs are proprietary and confidential. As is the case with any speculative futures fund, it is impossible to predict how the Partnership will perform. It is not possible, as it is in the case of an operating business, to predict performance trends, analyze future market conditions or evaluate the likely success or failure of the Partnership.

There are certain general market conditions in which the Partnership is more likely to be profitable than in others. For example, in trendless or stagnant markets, the AHL Diversified Program is unlikely to be profitable. On the other hand, trending markets with substantial price change momentum can be favorable to the AHL Diversified Trading Program. However, because of the continually changing population of market participants as well as supply and demand characteristics, it cannot be predicted how the AHL Diversified Program, and thus the Partnership, will perform in any given market conditions.

Net assets decreased $28,923,230 for the year ended December 31, 2015. This decrease was attributable to subscriptions in the amount of $16,867,462, redemptions in the amount of $43,053,561 and net loss from operations of $2,737,131.

For the year ended December 31, 2015, the Partnership accrued or paid total expenses of $9,810,584, including $2,000,360 in servicing fees, $5,952,076 in General Partner administrative fees and Trading Advisor management fees, and $1,858,148 in other expenses. Interest income of $149,041 was earned or accrued on the Partnership’s cash and cash equivalent investments.

The Net Asset Value of a Class A Unit decreased by $61.42 to $3,444.80. The Net Asset Value of a Class B Unit decreased by $61.41 to $3,444.82. The Net Asset Value of a Class A-2 Unit decreased by $19.30 to $3,749.11. The Net Asset Value of a Class B-2 Unit decreased by $19.31 to $3,749.17.

Partnership trading yielded mixed results in 2015 and ended the year overall in negative performance territory. In the equities sector, reversals in market sentiment predominated the first quarter. The Partnership started off the year sustaining losses from its stock indices shorts in January, subsequently achieved gains in February on account of long equity positioning and ended the quarter with additional losses driven by long

17

exposure to the S&P 500. Second quarter equity trading entailed similar volatility. Although the Partnership’s long exposure to Heng Seng and H-share futures in April capitalized on buoyant equity markets in Hong Kong and China, the Partnership’s long exposure to the Eurozone suffered as uncertainty surrounding the Greek debt crises negotiations produced spikes in volatility. A shrinking global risk appetite as well as weakened business activity in China subsequently prompted selloffs in the Asian and U.S. markets which battered the Partnership’s long equity positions in both markets in the third quarter. Fourth quarter trading of equities also brought negative results as the news of a large and significant fall in the growth of the U.S. workforce accompanied by the European Central Bank’s (“ECB”) failure to expand its asset purchases ran counter to the Partnership’s long equity positions.

With respect to fixed-income trading, the Partnership started off the year with strong first quarter returns. In January, Canada’s surprise cut to its benchmark interest rate and collapsing U.S. bond yields contributed to making the Partnership’s bond and rate positions among the Partnership’s strongest profit drivers for the year. Despite moderate February losses on account of investor demand shifting from bonds to equities, March bond trading proved profitable as the ECB’s massive asset purchase program and accommodative remarks from U.S. Federal Reserve Chair, Janet Yellen, favored the Partnership’s long exposure to the U.S. and European bond markets. The second quarter, however, brought a reversal of fortunes as the Partnership suffered losses from strong swings in the German bond market, unprofitable short positions in Australian bonds and continuing investor uncertainty regarding the Greek debt crisis. The Partnership thereafter experienced a return to profitability in the fixed-income sector as the Partnership’s positions in Italian bonds and Eurodollars produced substantial positive returns and overshadowed July losses sustained from short U.S. Treasury positions. Although the Partnership’s European bond positions achieved gains in October, notable volatility in December resulted in losses for the Partnership’s German, Italian and French bond positions at the end of the year.

Relative to the Partnership’s experience in the equities and fixed-income sectors, commodity trading produced more favorable returns in 2015, but was similarly hampered by sharp price reversals throughout the year. In January, returns from the Partnership’s commodity positions were neutral as losses sustained in the agricultural sector offset gains achieved in the energy markets. This offsetting relationship subsequently reversed in February as short oil exposure suffered from substantial and swift price increases while the Partnership’s agricultural positions produced gains. The prices of oil and oil-related products reversed course again in March, falling significantly from a strong February rally and buoying the Partnership’s March results. Following a neutral month of commodity trading in April, quick reversals in the agricultural markets in May and June resulted in substantial losses for the Partnership. Long exposure to base metals and short agricultural positions produced particularly large losses during this period as zinc prices dropped around 10% following a 20% rally in March and mid-month heavy rains and flooding across growing regions damaged crops and generally reversed a steady price decline which had taken place during the first part of the year. In July, a subsequent long U.S. dollar trend and heightened prospects of Iranian oil entering the global markets supported the Partnership’s gold, energies, crude oil, gasoline and diesel shorts. The Partnership’s short exposure to coal and electricity generated gains in August as each maintained their downward trend despite short-term reversals in oil prices. September trading additionally produced profits as continued reports of weakened Chinese business activity and growing expectations of shrinking Chinese demand for commodities benefitted the Partnership’s short positions in oil and industrial metals. The theme of falling oil prices and overall depressed commodity demand continued to drive the Partnership’s trading successes during the fourth quarter as the Partnership realized gains from its shorts in natural gas, oil and metals. These profits were partially reduced by losses sustained from short positions in live cattle and December short-term trend reversals.

Although starting off the first quarter with positive momentum, currency trading produced net losses over the course of 2015 as heightened volatility and swift market corrections during the second and fourth quarters proved challenging for the Partnership’s trend-following approach. In January, long U.S. dollar positions against the Euro and UK pound each returned gains, which were augmented by positive returns from February trading in the foreign currency markets. This profitable run continued in March due to the Partnership’s short exposure to the Brazilian real which was negatively affected by the country’s continuing political scandals and economic

18

troubles. The second quarter, however, produced a sharp reversal in trading returns. In April, the Partnership’s long U.S. dollar positions against several G10 markets suffered as the value of the Euro jumped approximately 6% from prior lows. Although gains realized from short exposure to the Japanese yen helped to offset these May losses, June trading experienced a continuing run of negative results on account of the Partnership’s U.S. dollar positioning. In July, the Partnership subsequently returned to profitability in the currencies sector as a long U.S. dollar trend arising from reports of favorable U.S. economic data and the prospect of higher U.S. interest rates benefitted the Partnership’s short positions in gold and foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar. With the U.S. dollar continuing to strengthen on account of investor flight from emerging market currencies to the comparative safety of the U.S., the Partnership’s continuing short exposure to foreign currencies, such as the Brazilian real, South Korean won and the Australian dollar, produced substantial returns in August. These gains were partially offset by losses sustained during September currency trading. The Partnership thereafter ended the year with moderately negative results from fourth-quarter currency trading as the Partnership experienced offsetting returns in October and November while December trading produced losses from a swift rallying of the Euro.

Trading in the credit sector, although having a neutral impact during most of the year, served as a slight drag on the Partnership’s overall performance during 2015. Protective positioning in investment and higher yield credit index swaps provided positive returns in February, but these gains were subsequently outweighed by moderate losses sustained during the remaining quarters of the year.

2014

Net assets decreased $856,954 for the year ended December 31, 2014. This decrease was attributable to subscriptions in the amount of $3,190,548, redemptions in the amount of $51,478,138 and net income from operations of $47,430,636.

For the year ended December 31, 2014, the Partnership accrued or paid total expenses of $8,169,377, including $1,918,407 in servicing fees, $5,883,411 in General Partner administrative fees and Trading Advisor management fees, and $367,559 in other expenses. Interest of $212,816 was earned or accrued on the Partnership’s cash and cash equivalent investments.

The Net Asset Value of a Class A Unit increased by $798.40 to $3,506.22. The Net Asset Value of a Class B Unit increased by $798.40 to $3,506.23. The Net Asset Value of a Class A-2 Unit increased by $894.35 to $3,768.41. The Net Asset Value of a Class B-2 Unit increased by $894.39 to $3,768.48.

The Partnership’s investments produced overall noteworthy results in 2014, with particularly strong performance achieved in the fixed-income sector. The key themes that influenced the Partnership’s bond trading were the increasingly accommodative monetary policy of the ECB as well as the continued interventionist strategies employed by the United States and Japan. In January, existing long positions in French and Italian bond futures, as well as Euro-bund and Canadian contracts, provided the most significant returns. Long Italian and French positions thereafter buoyed the Partnership’s fixed-income results for March in the face of sharp reversals in both the Eurodollar and U.S. Treasury bond markets. Trading profits in the second quarter were similarly driven by the ECB’s accommodative stance relative to the continued stimulus tapering by the United States. As desire for higher yields increased investor demand back to the U.S. and other bond markets in May, the Partnership realized profits from its long U.S. and Australian bond positions. Although a long stake in U.S. Treasuries subsequently produced losses in June, corresponding long positions in European bonds offset these losses with the rallying of European markets. In July and August, the Partnership’s long positions in Europe and the United States generated positive returns as investors sought security in safe-haven assets and Federal Reserve Chair, Janet Yellen, and ECB President, Mario Draghi, respectively noted the commitment of the U.S. to low short-term interest rates and the ECB’s intention to pursue a more active interventionist stance to boost growth and prevent deflation. September and the first part of October subsequently brought notable volatility and losses,

19

but bond trading ultimately ended the year on a strong note. The Partnership generated positive returns in each month of the fourth quarter from its long positions in the rallying Japanese and Canadian bond markets and as its investments proved well-timed to take advantage of the ECB’s first-ever purchases of asset-backed debt, continued deflationary risks, and increased stresses to oil producing countries from falling energy prices.

In contrast to the bond sector, the Partnership’s equity positions generated mixed results in 2014. Investor concern over the withdrawal of U.S. stimulus, the varied strategies of central banks, geopolitical developments and the arrival of lower input prices for energy and raw materials were the major performance drivers during this period. The Partnership started off the year with losses from its long positions as both the European and U.S. equity markets experienced declines and Germany’s DAX Index in particular was subject to sharp reversals due to the uncertainty borne out of the Russian-Ukrainian political conflict. After continuing to create losses in April following the bursting of a mini-stock bubble, equity trading provided substantial gains in the second quarter as the Partnership’s long positions in U.S. and European equities rose in conjunction with the S&P 500’s and the DAX index’s respective climbs to all-time highs. These long positions created losses in the third quarter, however, following the Argentine debt default that prompted a selloff in global equities and comments from Janet Yellen concerning stretched valuations in certain markets. The mixed-results pattern continued in the fourth quarter with its whipsaw market conditions. In October, investor anxiety over the end of the Federal Reserve’s asset purchasing program and the arrival of the first case of Ebola ever recorded in the United States brought a sharp fall in equity prices, which subsequently rebounded in November with the arrival of lower input prices for energy and raw materials. Conversely, lower energy prices and the resulting stresses they engendered for countries dependent on oil revenue prompted a global sell off in equities in December. By mid-month, equities once more rallied, this time on Janet Yellen’s remarks that there would be no upcoming surprises with respect to interest rates. The Partnership sustained losses during this volatile fourth quarter.

Commodity trading produced similarly mixed results. With respect to agriculturals, the Partnership realized modest gains overall with trading in specific months comprising a significant portion of the Partnership’s performance attribution from this sector. In June and July, long cattle and short corn and wheat positions were well-timed to take advantage of record-high futures prices for cattle and the downward trend of grain values which had spiked on earlier concerns over the harsh winter. Reversals in the grain markets, however, as well as in the longer trends seen in cocoa trading produced losses for the Partnership in October. With respect to energies, trading initially contributed modestly to the Partnership’s performance, but by the end of the third quarter, became increasingly profitable as fundamental demand and supply principles, in contrast to global risk appetite, appeared to drive the energy sector more than any other time since the financial crisis. The Partnership’s short positions in oil were particularly profitable during this period as energy prices, already suppressed in October on account of the strengthening U.S. dollar and weaker global growth, plummeted in November with OPEC’s decision to maintain levels of oil production despite the rapid decline in oil prices. The theme of falling energy prices persisted in December and the Partnership’s continued short positions remained favorable. In contrast to the Partnership’s favorable fourth-quarter run in the energy sector, metals trading accounted for a much smaller portion of the Partnership’s 2014 performance attribution and shorts in gold and silver produced losses due to fears of weakening growth and geopolitical instability in the Middle East.

Trading in currencies resulted in positive returns for the Partnership in 2014 with some of the key themes including the continuing growth of the U.S. economy, Europe’s and Japan’s stimulus initiatives and falling oil prices. Although currency trading started off to a slow start, the second half of the year yielded notable gains as short positions taken on the Japanese yen, Euro, and the currencies of other struggling economies added sizable returns in light of the currencies’ notable depreciation relative to the U.S. dollar.

The interest rates and credit sectors had a minor influence on performance in 2014 and, aside from metals, comprised the sectors with the smallest Partnership allocations.

Net assets decreased $176,469,369 for the year ended December 31, 2013. This decrease was attributable to subscriptions in the amount of $13,658,527, redemptions in the amount of $172,227,858 and net loss from operations of $17,900,038.

For the year ended December 31, 2013, the Partnership accrued or paid total expenses of $14,202,849, including $4,507,344 in servicing fees, $9,312,545 in General Partner administrative fees and Trading Advisor management fees, and $382,960 in other expenses. Interest of $302,588 was earned or accrued on the Partnership’s cash and cash equivalent investments.

The Net Asset Value of a Class A Unit decreased by $176.65 to $2,707.82. The Net Asset Value of a Class B Unit decreased by $176.65 to $2,707.83. The Net Asset Value of a Class A-2 Unit decreased by $149.34 to $2,874.06. The Net Asset Value of a Class B-2 Unit increased by $149.33 to $2,874.09.

Trading in bonds and short term interest rates started off with losses in January 2013, the main detractors being long positions in US Treasuries, French bonds, Short Sterling and Eurodollar. However, bond trading returned to profitability in February as markets returned to a more cautious state following January’s bullish nature. Safe haven bonds, such as US Treasuries, returned some of the larger gains with returns also coming from emerging market bonds. Long interest rate positions, such as in Eurodollar, Euribor and Short Sterling, further provided positive results because of the relaxed monetary policies of major central banks. In March, bond trading largely continued this positive run due to the portfolio’s long bond holdings. A small portion of the gain, however, was lost via Italian long dated bonds and positions in US Treasuries. In April, a long exposure to fixed income assets including European bonds, US Treasuries and Eurodollar contracts again delivered profits despite a loss on long exposures to Japanese bonds. The Partnership subsequently sustained a loss in May primarily because of its long exposure to US Treasuries, UK gilts and bonds from commodity focused economies. Long exposure to interest rate holdings also incurred a loss following a cut in Eurozone rates. Indeed, Eurodollar, Euribor and Short Sterling contracts all ended May in negative territory. The Partnership continued to post a loss in June on account of its long holdings of US Treasuries, European bonds, and contracts involving Eurodollar, Euribor and Short Sterling. In August, rising yields hurt long exposure to U.S. treasuries which was one of the largest negatives over the month. Similarly, bond holdings hurt performance in September as short exposure to debt from commodity-focused economies suffered. Long holdings of Italian bonds further delivered a loss with destabilization of the Italian coalition government resulting in heavy selling of the country’s debt. Some performance was recovered via long German and French bonds as higher grade fixed income attracted safe haven inflows from investors. Nevertheless, bond trading ultimately ended the year in December on a sour note as bond prices dropped following the Federal Reserve’s reduction in bond purchasing integral in its quantitative easing policy.

In contrast to bond and interest rate trading, equity positions largely generated positive results for the Partnership in 2013. Equity trading provided noteworthy results in January because of long equity exposure across all regions, including the US and European indices. Such long exposure continued to generate solid performance throughout the year although losses were sustained in U.S. and European stock indices when equities fell out of favor.

With respect to currency trading, short exposure to Japanese yen provided positive returns in January as the Japanese yen fell 6% on a trade-weighted basis following the announcement of stimulus and deflation control. Currency trading in February, however, provided mixed results as positive returns from shorting the British pound was offset by losses from short exposure to the US dollar. Continued trading strategies with respect to both the British pound and U.S. dollar produced the opposite effects in the months of March and April. In March, the short exposure to the US dollar largely resulted in positive returns while, in April, short positions in the British pound produced negative returns when the United Kingdom avoided a triple-dip recession. Currency trading became a notable performance detractor in the months following. In July, long exposure to the U.S. dollar suffered due to the U.S.’s continuing accommodative monetary policy. In August, losses were concentrated in

21

long Eurodollar positions as better-than-expected data raised Eurozone interest rate expectations. The losses sustained in September were attributable to long exposure to the U.S. dollar, dollar pairs against emerging-market currencies, and both long and short Euro exposures. Short exposure to Eurodollar and Short Sterling particularly suffered as accommodative monetary policy in the U.S. lowered expectations for interest rates globally.

Commodity trading started off the year generating a gain, largely due to short electricity contracts as milder, wetter weather drove prices down. Long exposure to oil and oil derivatives and short gold exposure also returned positive numbers. Energy trading took a hit in February though, with all positions contributing to the loss. Long positions in crude oil, crude oil by-products, and base metals followed the same theme. In March, the commodity allocations also delivered negative performance on the whole, driven predominantly by a long exposure to energy markets. Exposure to crude oil and its derivatives caused the greatest losses as the portfolio was long at the start of the period and suffered as oil prices fell. The portfolio’s exposure was subsequently reduced, and thus, did not participate in some of the upward movement towards the end of the period. Although some profits were obtained through a short allocation to both precious and base metals in April, exposure to wheat and corn detracted from these gains. Conversely, agricultural trading in May posted a gain primarily through long soybeans and short sugar positions. Energies produced slightly negative returns in May with long natural gas adding a loss that short electricity and coat contacts partially offset. In June, short metals added a notable gain as prices of both base and precious metals fell sharply. The reverse was true in July when Chinese growth figures pushed up the price of base metals and precious metals also rose. Short positions in agriculturals similarly generated a loss from increased prices in cocoa, coffee and soya. Commodity trading in August produced mixed results as early gains from long exposures were lost after increased industrial production in China hurt short positions in base metals. September provided similarly mixed results. While short exposure to precious metals suffered losses, agricultural holdings produced positive results overall. High Midwest temperatures threatened to damage soyabean crops and resulted in strong returns from long exposures to soyabeans. Short corn positions further turned out to be profitable from larger-than-expected stockpiles of corn. Returns on energy trades were mixed as Middle East tensions created profit on long holdings of crude oil and oil prices subsequently dropped. Commodity trading in October also produced a loss as volatility in energy markets caused difficulties for directional trading. In contrast, short metal holdings generated positive gains in November after the price of gold and aluminum dropped throughout the month. Long soyabean holdings additionally helped performance as US export demand increase. In the month of December, long crude oil holdings weighed the most on commodity trading profitability after Western countries and Iran reached an agreement over Iran’s nuclear program. The Partnership, however, still benefited from short positions on canola and wheat which sold off strongly through the month. Trading on metals produced mixed results in December.

The credit sector provided mixed performance results in 2013. Short exposure to European and US credit default protection initially captured gains in January as the cost of default insurance fell, but subsequently, created losses after the cost of European default protection rose. The Partnership did achieve positive gains in the credit sector during the fourth quarter, however, after credit markets continued to tighten to post-crisis lows.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

Introduction

Past Results Are Not Necessarily Indicative of Future Performance

The Partnership is a speculative commodity pool. Unlike an operating company, the risk of market sensitive instruments is integral, not incidental, to the Partnership’s main line of business.

Market movements result in frequent changes in the fair market value of the Partnership’s open positions and, consequently, in its earnings and cash flow. The Partnership’s market risk is influenced by a wide variety of factors, including the level and volatility of interest rates, exchange rates, equity price levels, the market value of financial instruments and contracts, the diversification effects among the Partnership’s open positions and the liquidity of the markets in which it trades.

22

The Partnership can rapidly acquire and/or liquidate both long and short positions in a wide range of different markets. Consequently, it is not possible to predict how a particular future market scenario will affect performance, and the Partnership’s past performance is not necessarily indicative of its future results.

Value at Risk is a measure of the maximum amount which the Partnership could reasonably be expected to lose in a given market sector. However, the inherent uncertainty of the Partnership’s speculative trading and the recurrence in the markets traded by the Partnership of market movements far exceeding expectations could result in actual trading or non-trading losses far beyond the indicated Value at Risk or the Partnership’s experience to date (i.e., “risk of ruin”). In light of the foregoing as well as the risks and uncertainties intrinsic to all future projections, the inclusion of the quantification included in this section should not be considered to constitute any assurance or representation that the Partnership’s losses in any market sector will be limited to Value at Risk or by the Partnership’s attempts to manage its market risk.

Materiality, as used in this section “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk,” is based on an assessment of reasonably possible market movements and the potential losses caused by such movements, taking into account the leverage, optionality and multiplier features of the Partnership’s market sensitive instruments.

Quantifying the Partnership’s Trading Value at Risk

Quantitative Forward-Looking Statements

The following quantitative disclosures regarding the Partnership’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 and Section 21E of the Exchange Act). 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’s risk exposure in the various market sectors traded by the General Partner is quantified below in terms of Value at Risk. Due to the Partnership’s mark-to-market accounting, any loss in the fair value of the Partnership’s open positions is directly reflected in the Partnership’s earnings (realized or unrealized) and cash flow (at least in the case of exchange-traded contracts in which profits and losses on open positions are settled daily through variation margin).

For regulatory purposes, initial margin requirements have been used by the Partnership as the measure of its Value at Risk. For trading and internal risk monitoring purposes, a different approach based on simulated market movements is used. Initial margin requirements include a credit risk factor and a maintenance margin factor and thus overstate the maximum one-day loss reflected by the maintenance margin requirement by the amount of the credit risk factor used in setting initial margin requirements. Maintenance margin requirements are set by dealers, exchanges and OTC clearing counterparties to equal or exceed 95-99% of the maximum one-day losses in the fair value of any given contract incurred during the time period over which historical price fluctuations are researched for purposes of establishing margin levels. The maintenance margin levels are established by dealers, exchanges and OTC clearing counterparties using historical price studies as well as an assessment of current market volatility (including the implied volatility of the options on a given futures contract) and economic fundamentals to provide a probabilistic estimate of the maximum expected near-term one-day price fluctuation.

In the case of market sensitive instruments that are not exchange traded (almost exclusively currencies in the case of the Partnership), dealers’ margins have been used as Value at Risk.

The fair value of the Partnership’s futures and forward positions does not have any optionality component. However, the General Partner may also trade commodity options on behalf of the Partnership. The Value at Risk associated with options would be reflected in the margin requirement attributable to the instrument underlying each option.

23

In quantifying the Partnership’s Value at Risk, 100% positive correlation in the different positions held in each market risk category has been assumed. Consequently, the margin requirements applicable to the open contracts have simply been aggregated to determine each trading category’s aggregate Value at Risk. The diversification effects resulting from the fact that the Partnership’s positions are rarely, if ever, 100% positively correlated have not been reflected.

The Partnership’s Trading Value at Risk in Different Market Sectors

The following table indicates the average, highest and lowest amount of trading Value at Risk associated with the Partnership’s open positions by market category for the year ended December 31, 2015. During 2015, the Partnership’s average capitalization was $195,664,056.

Average, highest and lowest Value at Risk amounts relate to the quarter-end amounts during the fiscal year. Average capitalization is the average of the Partnership’s capitalization at the end of each quarter during the fiscal year 2015.

The following table indicates the average, highest and lowest amount of trading Value at Risk associated with the Partnership’s open positions by market category for the year ended December 31, 2014. During 2014, the Partnership’s average capitalization was $184,337,947.

Average, highest and lowest Value at Risk amounts relate to the quarter-end amounts during the fiscal year. Average capitalization is the average of the Partnership’s capitalization at the end of each quarter during the fiscal year 2014.

24

Material Limitations on Value at Risk as an Assessment of Market Risk

The face value of the market sector instruments held by the Partnership is typically many times the applicable initial or maintenance margin requirement (maintenance margin requirements generally ranging between approximately 1% and 10% of contract face value) as well as many times the capitalization of the Partnership. The magnitude of the Partnership’s open positions creates a “risk of ruin” not typically found in most other investment vehicles. Because of the size of its positions, certain market conditions — unusual, but historically recurring from time to time — could cause the Partnership to incur severe losses over a short period of time. The foregoing Value at Risk table — as well as the past performance of the Partnership — gives no indication of this “risk of ruin.”

Non-Trading Risk

The Partnership has non-trading market risk on its foreign cash balances not needed for margin. However, these balances (as well as any market risk they represent) are immaterial.

The Partnership also has non-trading cash flow risk as a result of holding a substantial portion of its assets in U.S. government securities (Treasury Bills) and interest-bearing bank accounts. These cash and cash equivalents are placed with highly rated counterparties with a priority placed on preservation of capital and reputation (i.e., appropriate level of credit risk, market risk and reputation risk) and liquidity (i.e., appropriate level of liquidity risk).

Qualitative Disclosures Regarding Primary Trading Risk Exposures

The following qualitative disclosures regarding the Partnership’s market risk exposures — except for (i) those disclosures that are statements of historical fact and (ii) the descriptions of how the General Partner manages the Partnership’s primary market risk exposures — constitute forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. The Partnership’s primary market risk exposures as well as the strategies used and to be used by the General Partner 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. There can be no assurance that the Partnership’s current market exposure and/or risk management strategies will not change materially or that any such strategies will be effective in either the short- or long-term. 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 as of December 31, 2015, by market sector.

Financial Instruments. Interest rate movements directly affect the price of the sovereign bond futures positions held by the Partnership and indirectly the value of its stock index and currency positions. Interest rate movements in one country as well as relative interest rate movements between countries may materially impact the Partnership’s profitability. The Partnership’s primary interest rate exposure is to interest rate fluctuations in the United States, Germany, the UK, Australia and Japan. However, the Partnership also may take positions in futures contracts on the government debt of smaller nations. The General Partner anticipates that G-7 interest rates, both long-term and short-term, will remain the primary market exposure of the Partnership for the foreseeable future.

25

Currencies. Exchange rate risk is the principal market exposure of the Partnership. The Partnership’s currency exposure is to exchange rate fluctuations, primarily fluctuations which disrupt the historical pricing relationships between different currencies and currency pairs. These fluctuations are influenced by interest rate changes as well as political and general economic conditions. The Partnership trades in a large number of currencies, including cross-rates — i.e., positions between two currencies other than the U.S. dollar. As of December 31, 2015 the Partnership’s primary currency exposures were in the U.S. dollar versus the Euro, UK Sterling, Brazilian Real, Mexican Peso and Singapore Dollar. The primary exposures in the currency crosses were in the Euro versus Australian Dollar, Euro versus UK Sterling, UK Sterling versus Australian Dollar, Euro versus Swedish Krona and Australian Dollar versus Yen.

Stock Indices. The Partnership’s primary equity exposure, through stock index futures, is to equity price risk in the G-7 countries. As of December 31, 2015, the Partnership’s primary exposures were in the Dax, Nikkei, Korean Kospi, S&P 500 and Hang Seng. The Partnership is primarily exposed to the risk of adverse price trends or static markets in the major U.S., European and Asian indices. (Static markets would not cause major market changes but could make it difficult for the Partnership to avoid numerous small losses.)

Metals. The Diversified Portfolio used for the Partnership trades precious and base metals. The Partnership’s metals market exposure were in aluminum, gold, silver, copper, nickel and zinc.

Agricultural. The Partnership’s primary commodities exposure is to agricultural price movements, which are often directly affected by severe or unexpected weather conditions. Wheat, coffee, soybeans, cotton and corn accounted for the substantial bulk of the Partnership’s commodities exposure as of December 31, 2015.

Energy. The Partnership’s primary energy market exposure is to gas and oil price movements, often resulting from political developments in the Middle East and economic conditions worldwide. Energy prices are volatile and substantial profits and losses have been and are expected to continue to be experienced in this market. As of December 31, 2015, the main exposures were in crude oil, heating oil, gasoline, natural gas and gas oil.

Qualitative Disclosures Regarding Non-Trading Risk Exposure

The following were the only non-trading risk exposures of the Partnership as of December 31, 2015.

Foreign Currency Balances. The Partnership’s primary foreign currency balances are in Euro, Australian dollar, British pounds, Swedish krona and Japanese yen. The Partnership controls the non-trading risk of these balances by regularly converting these balances back into U.S. dollars (no less frequently than twice a month).

Cash Positions. The Partnership’s only market exposure in instruments held other than for trading is in its cash portfolio. The Partnership holds only cash in deposits, U.S. Government Treasury Bills and interest-bearing bank accounts. This cash is placed with highly rated counterparties with a priority placed on preservation of capital and reputation (i.e. appropriate level of credit risk, market risk and reputation risk) and liquidity (i.e. appropriate level of liquidity risk) with durations no longer than 1 year.

Qualitative Disclosures Regarding Means of Managing Risk Exposure

Risk management is an essential component of AHL’s investment management process. AHL has put in place a risk management framework which is designed to identify, monitor and mitigate the portfolio, operational and outsourcing risks relevant to its operations. AHL’s risk management framework is part of, and is supported by, the overarching risk management framework of its parent company, Man Group plc. Key principles of AHL’s risk management framework include the segregation of functions and duties where material conflicts of interest may arise and having an appropriate degree of independent and senior management oversight of business activities. As part of this independent oversight, AHL’s activities are subject to regular review by an internal audit function.

26

The AHL Diversified Program employs a systematic, statistically based investment strategy that is designed to identify and capitalize on inefficiencies in markets around the world. The trading systems are quantitative and primarily directional in nature, meaning that investment decisions are entirely driven by mathematical models based on market trends and other historic relationships. Portfolio risk management consists primarily of monitoring risk measures and ensuring the systems remain within prescribed limits. The major risk monitoring measures and focus areas include value-at-risk, stress testing, implied volatility, leverage, margin-to-equity ratios and net exposures to sectors and different currencies.

Diversification is also a key feature of AHL’s risk management, as well as its investment, process. The AHL Diversified Program is diversified across over 100 markets covering a wide range of sectors including, without limitation, currencies, bonds, energies, stock indices, interest rates, metals and agriculturals. As well as emphasizing sector and market diversification, the AHL Diversified Program has been constructed to achieve diversification by combining various systems driven by powerful computerized trading algorithms, most of which work by sampling prices in real time and measuring price momentum and breakouts. Another important aspect of diversification is the fact that the various systems generate signals across different timeframes, ranging from two to three days to several months, which helps to reduce the risk of the AHL Diversified Program. In line with the principle of diversification, the approach to portfolio construction and asset allocation is premised on the importance of deploying investment capital across the full range of sectors and markets. Particular attention is paid to correlation of markets and sectors, expected returns, trading costs and market liquidity. Portfolios are regularly reviewed and, when necessary, adjusted to reflect changes in these factors. AHL also has a process for adjusting its market risk exposure in real time to reflect changes in the volatility, a measure of risk, of individual markets.

Item 9A. Controls and Procedures.

The General Partner, with the participation of the General Partner’s Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer with respect to the Partnership, has evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Partnership’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the fiscal year for which this Annual Report on Form 10-K is being filed. Based on such evaluation, the Partnership’s Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer with respect to the Partnership have concluded that the Partnership’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the fiscal year ended December 31, 2015.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requires the General Partner to evaluate annually the effectiveness of its internal controls over financial reporting as of the end of each fiscal year, and to include a management report assessing the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting in all annual reports. There were no significant changes in the General Partner’s internal control over financial reporting during the three-month period ended December 31, 2015 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting.

28

Management’s Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

The General Partner is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over the financial reporting of the Partnership. Internal control over financial reporting is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act, as a process designed by, or under the supervision of, a company’s principal executive and principal financial officers and effected by a 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 the accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The General Partner’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that:

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. 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.

The management of the General Partner assessed the effectiveness of its internal control over financial reporting with respect to the Partnership as of December 31, 2015. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (the “1992 Framework”). Based on its assessment, management has concluded that, as of December 31, 2015, the General Partner’s internal control over financial reporting with respect to the Partnership is effective based on those criteria.

There were no significant changes in the General Partner’s internal controls with respect to the Partnership or in other factors applicable to the Partnership that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation.

INDEX TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

F-1

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the General Partner and Limited Partners of Man-AHL Diversified I L.P.

We have audited the accompanying statements of financial condition of Man-AHL Diversified I L.P. (the “Partnership”) as of December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the related statements of operations, changes in partners’ capital and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2015. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Partnership’s 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. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Partnership’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Man-AHL Diversified I L.P. at December 31, 2015 and 2014, and the results of its operations, changes in its partners’ capital and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2015, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
