Part I

Item 1.  Business

(a)   General Development of Business.

The Aspen Diversified Fund LLC (the “Fund”) is a limited liability company organized under the laws of Delaware in April 2005.  The Fund began investment operations on July 1, 2005.

The Fund’s business is trading a diversified portfolio of futures, forward and option contracts on currencies, metals, financial instruments, stock indices, energy and agricultural commodities.  The Fund is a speculative commodity pool and is a “fund of funds” which invests in other commodity pools known as “Investee Pools” as well as separately managed accounts (together with Investee Pools, “Investment Funds”) managed or traded by independent Commodity Trading Advisors (“CTAs”), or other portfolio managers (together with CTAs, “Portfolio Managers”).

Investment Funds may trade diversified portfolios of futures in U.S. and non-U.S. markets in an effort to actively profit from anticipated trends in market prices. Portfolio Managers may rely on either technical or fundamental analysis or a combination thereof in making trading decisions and attempting to identify and exploit price trends.  Portfolio Managers will attempt to structure portfolios of liquid futures contracts including but not limited to stock index, global currency, interest rate, metals, energy and agricultural futures markets.

Aspen Partners, Ltd. (the “Managing Member”), an S-Corporation formed in Delaware in February 1996, acts as the managing member, commodity pool operator, and trading advisor of the Fund.  As of December 31, 2012, the Managing Member had approximately $165.7 million of assets under management, including assets of the Fund.  The Managing Member is a registered investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940,  as amended (the “Advisers Act”), and is a registered Introducing Broker (“IB”) and Commodity Pool Operator (“CPO”) with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (the "CFTC") and a member of the National Futures Association (the "NFA").

The Fund and the Managing Member maintain their principal business office at 4200 Northside Parkway, Building 11, Suite 200, Atlanta, GA 30327 and their telephone number is (404) 879-5126.

The Managing Member is responsible for recommending the selection of, investment in and withdrawal from investment funds to the investment committee of the Fund (the “Investment Committee”), which consists of principals of the Managing Member.  The Managing Member generally will, in its sole discretion, implement the decisions made by the Investment Committee, although it is not required to do so.  The Managing Member is also responsible for the daily operations of the Fund, as well as facilitating instructions of the Investment Committee.

Interests in the Fund are marketed through Frontier Solutions, LLC (the “Broker/Dealer”), a Georgia limited liability company which began operations in January 2006.  The Broker/Dealer is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Managing Member and is a registered Broker/Dealer with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”).  The Broker/Dealer’s office is located at 4200 Northside Parkway, Building 11, Suite 200, Atlanta, GA 30327 and its telephone number is (404) 879-5126.

The Fund operates in a competitive environment in which it faces several forms of competition, including, without limitation:

·   The Fund competes with other commodity pools and other investment vehicles for investors.

·   The Portfolio Managers may compete with other traders in the markets in establishing or liquidating positions on behalf of the Fund.

(b)   Financial Information about Segments.

The Fund’s business constitutes only one segment for financial reporting purposes.  The Fund does not engage in sales of goods or services.  Refer to Part II, Item 6 and Item 8 for financial information pertaining to the Fund.

(c)   Narrative Description of Business.

(i) through (xii) Not applicable.  Refer to Part I, Item 1(a) for more information.

(xiii)  The Fund has no employees.

The Fund seeks to achieve capital appreciation through investments in a diversified portfolio of futures, forward and option contracts on currencies, metals, financial instruments, stock indices, energy and agricultural commodities (“Financial Instruments”).  The Fund is organized as a “multi-advisor pool.” The Fund invests its assets in underlying “investee pools” managed by independent commodity trading advisors, or CTAs, and separately managed accounts to be managed by one or more independent CTAs.  The Managing Member has established a number of trading companies (limited liability companies formed in Delaware) through which assets may be allocated to managed accounts.  Investee Pools may trade diversified portfolios of futures in U.S. and non-U.S. markets in an effort to capture passive risk premiums, and actively profit from anticipated trends in market prices.

The terms “Investee Pools” and “Portfolio Managers” may be used interchangeably and refer both to the Investee Pools and to the investment managers of Investee Pools and Separately Managed Accounts established by the Fund, except where otherwise indicated by the context.  Investee Pools may rely on either technical or fundamental analysis or a combination thereof in making trading decisions and attempting to identify and exploit price trends.  Portfolio Managers will attempt to structure portfolios of liquid futures contracts including, but not limited to, stock index, global currency, interest rate, metals, energy and agricultural futures markets.  Market selection may be based on the liquidity or legal constraints, market conditions or data reliability of the market, depending on the Portfolio Manager’s internal policies.  Portfolio Managers trading Investee Pools may trade either on the long or short side of the market, often on a 24-hour basis, and generally have more volatile performance than many traditional investments, such as stocks and bonds.  However, managed futures investments are generally not correlated with the returns of traditional long-only equity or fixed income investments.  Generally, at least 90% of the net assets of the Fund will be invested with Investee Pools and Portfolio Managers who invest in futures markets, options on commodity future contracts, and forward contracts.

Trading Program

Forward and futures traders generally may be classified as either systematic or discretionary.  A systematic trader generally will rely to some degree on judgmental decisions concerning, for example, which markets to follow and trade, when to liquidate a position in a contract that is about to expire and how heavy a weighting a particular market should have in a portfolio.  However, although these judgmental decisions may have a substantial effect on a systematic trading advisor’s performance, the trader relies primarily on trading programs or models that generate trading signals.  The systems used to generate trading signals themselves may be changed from time to time, but the trading instructions generated by the systems are followed without significant additional analysis or interpretation.  Discretionary traders on the other hand – while they may use market charts, computer programs and compilations of quantifiable information to assist them in making trading decisions – make trading decisions on the basis of their own judgment and trading instinct, not on the basis of trading signals generated by any program or model.

The Managing Member generally invests Fund assets in Investee Pools managed both by Portfolio Managers who are systematic traders and discretionary traders.

In addition to being distinguished from one another on the basis of whether they are systematic or discretionary traders, Portfolio Managers also are distinguished as relying on either technical or fundamental analysis, or on a combination of the two.

2

Technical analysis is not based on the anticipated supply and demand of a particular commodity, currency or financial instrument.  Instead, it is based on the theory that the study of the markets themselves will provide a means of anticipating the external factors that affect the supply and demand for a particular commodity, currency or financial instrument in order to predict future prices.  Technical analysis operates on the theory that market prices at any given point in time reflect all known factors affecting supply and demand for a particular commodity, currency or financial instrument.

Fundamental analysis, in contrast, is based on the study of factors external to the trading markets that affect the supply and demand of a particular commodity, currency or financial instrument in an attempt to predict future prices.  Such factors might include the economy of a particular country, government policies, domestic and foreign political and economic events, and changing trade prospects.  Fundamental analysis theorizes that by monitoring relevant supply and demand factors for a particular commodity, currency or financial instrument, a state of current or potential disequilibrium of market conditions may be identified that has yet to be reflected in the price level of that instrument.  Fundamental analysis assumes that the markets are imperfect, that information is not instantaneously assimilated or disseminated and that econometric models can be constructed that generate equilibrium prices that may indicate that current prices are inconsistent with underlying economic conditions and will, accordingly, change in the future.

The Managing Member invests Fund assets in Investee Pools managed both by Portfolio Managers who use technical analysis and fundamental analysis.

Trend-following traders gear their trading approaches towards positioning themselves to identify and follow major price movements.  In contrast, market forecasters attempt to predict future price levels without relying on such trends to point the way, scalpers attempt to make numerous small profits on short-term trades, and arbitrage traders attempt to capture temporary price imbalances between inter-related markets.  Trend-following traders assume that a majority of their trades will be unprofitable.  Their objective is to make a few large profits, more than offsetting their numerous but smaller losses, by successfully identifying and following major trends.  Consequently, during periods in which no major price trends develop in a market, a trend-following advisor is likely to incur substantial losses.

The Managing Member invests the Fund’s assets in Investee Pools managed by Portfolio Managers who are trend-following or market forecasters with a significant allocation to trend-followers.

Generally, at least 90% of the net assets of the Fund will be invested with Investee Pools or separately managed accounts traded by CTAs who invest in futures markets, options on commodity future contracts, and forward contracts.  The Managing Member temporarily may invest the Fund’s available assets in U.S. government securities or “cash equivalent” financial instruments such as certificates of deposit, money market funds or other cash equivalents.

The trading of futures and commodity interests is inherently leveraged.  Accordingly, the Fund does not intend to borrow.  Investee Pools, however, are permitted to borrow or otherwise use leverage.  Nevertheless, the Managing Member does not presently intend to invest in Investee Pools that contemplate borrowing.

The Fund is a speculative investment and is not intended as a complete investment program. The Fund is designed only for sophisticated persons who are able to bear the risk of an investment in the Fund. There can be no assurance that the Fund will achieve its investment objectives. Investors may lose all or substantially all of their investment.

(d)    Financial Information about Geographic Areas

The Fund invests in Investee Pools located within the United States and abroad.  Investment Funds may trade on a number of foreign commodity exchanges.  The Fund does not engage in the sales of goods or services.

Item 1A.  Risk Factors

An investment in the Fund is speculative, involves a high degree of risk and is suitable only for persons who are able to assume the risk of losing their entire investment.  Prospective investors in the Fund are expected to be aware of the substantial risks of investing in the highly speculative field of futures trading.  Those who are not generally familiar with such risks are not suitable investors and should not consider investing in the Fund.  The Managing Member wishes to emphasize the following particular risk factors relating to a purchase of each interest in the Fund, (each, a “Unit”).

Risk of loss is significant.  An investor may incur significant losses on an investment in the Fund.  The Managing Member cannot provide any assurance that investors will not lose all or substantially all of their investment.

Past performance records are not necessarily indicative of future trading results. Past performance records of the Fund, the Managing Member, the Investment Funds, and the Portfolio Managers are not necessarily indicative of future results.

Futures, forward and commodity interest contract trading is volatile.  Trading in the futures, forward and commodity interest markets typically results in volatile performance.  The performance records of the Investment Funds have exhibited a considerable degree of volatility.

The Fund’s trading is highly leveraged.  The low margin deposits frequently required in futures, forward and commodity interest trading permit an extremely high degree of leverage.  Investee Pools frequently may hold positions with a gross value several times in excess of the Fund’s Net Assets allocated to them.  Consequently, even a slight movement in the prices of open positions could result in significant losses.

Markets may be illiquid or disrupted.   Most United States futures exchanges limit fluctuations in some futures contract prices during a single day by regulations referred to as “daily limits.”  During a single trading day no trades may be executed in such contracts at prices beyond the daily limit.  Once the price of a futures contract has increased or decreased to the limit point, positions can be neither taken nor liquidated.  Futures prices have occasionally moved to the daily limit for several consecutive days with little or no trading.  Similar occurrences could prevent Portfolio Managers or the Fund from promptly liquidating unfavorable positions and subject the Fund to substantial losses.  Also, the CFTC or futures exchanges may suspend or limit trading.  Trading on non-United States exchanges also may be subject to price fluctuation limits and are otherwise subject to periods of significant illiquidity.  Trading in the forward currency markets is not subject to daily limits, although such trading also is subject to periods of significant illiquidity.

4

Failure of brokerage firms and forward market participants could adversely affect the Fund.   The Commodity Exchange Act, as amended, requires a clearing broker to segregate funds received from such broker’s customers in respect of futures (but not forward) transactions.  If any of the Investee Pools’ commodity brokers were not to do so to the full extent required by law, or in the event of a substantial default by one or more of such broker’s other customers, the assets of the Fund allocated to that Investment Fund might not be fully protected in the event of the bankruptcy of such broker.  Furthermore, in the event of such a bankruptcy, the Investment Fund would be limited to recovering only a pro rata share of all available funds segregated on behalf of the affected commodity broker’s combined customer accounts, even though certain property specifically traceable to the Investment Fund (for example, United States Treasury bills or cash deposited by the Fund with such broker) was held by such broker.  Commodity broker bankruptcies have occurred in which customers were not able to recover from the broker’s estate the full amount of their funds on deposit with such broker and owing to them.  Commodity broker bankruptcies are not insured by any governmental agency, and investors would not have the benefit of any protection such as that afforded customers of bankrupt securities broker/dealers by the Securities Investors Protection Corporation.

In respect of their forward trading, the Fund’s Investee Pools will be subject to the risk of the inability or refusal to perform with respect to such contracts on the part of the principals or agents with or through which the Investee Pools trade.  Any failure or refusal to discharge their contractual obligations by the counterparties with which an Investment Fund deals on the forward markets, whether due to insolvency, bankruptcy or other causes, could subject the Fund’s investment in that Investment Fund to substantial losses.   The Portfolio Managers generally deal in the forward markets only with major financial institution counterparties which they consider to be creditworthy.  However, defaults have occurred in the forward markets, and the risk of such defaults cannot be eliminated from the Portfolio Managers’ trading, impacting the Fund’s investments.

Certain Special Considerations Related to Forward Trading.   None of the CFTC, NFA, futures exchanges or banking authorities directly regulates forward trading.  Because a portion of the Investee Pools’ currency trading takes place in the forward markets, prospective investors must recognize that much of the Fund’s indirect investment activity takes place in unregulated markets rather than on futures exchanges subject to the jurisdiction of the CFTC or other regulatory bodies.  Underlying Investee Pool  funds on deposits with the currency forward counterparties with which the Portfolio Manager trades are not protected by the same segregation requirements imposed on CFTC regulated commodity brokers in respect of customer funds deposited with them.  Although the Portfolio Managers deal only with major financial institutions as currency forward counterparties, the insolvency or bankruptcy of a currency forward counterparty could subject the Investee Pool to the loss of its entire deposit with such counterparty.  Although the forward markets are well established, it is impossible to predict how, given certain unusual market scenarios, the unregulated nature of these markets might affect the Fund’s investments in Investee Pools.

The Unregulated Nature of the Over-the-Counter (“OTC”) trading involves counterparty risks that do not exist in futures trading on exchanges.  Unlike futures contracts, over-the-counter “spot” and forward contracts are entered into between private parties off an exchange and are not regulated by the CFTC or by any other U.S. or foreign governmental agency.  Due to the fact that such contracts are not traded on an exchange, the performance of those contracts is not guaranteed by an exchange or its clearinghouse and the Fund is at risk with respect to the ability of the counterparty to perform on the contract, including the creditworthiness of the counterparty.  Trading in the over-the-counter foreign exchange markets is not regulated; therefore, there are no specific standards or regulatory supervision of trade pricing and other trading activities that occur in those markets.

The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) will affect the manner in which certain OTC swap transactions are traded and the credit risk associated with such trading.  Depending upon actions taken by regulatory authorities, these changes may also affect the manner of trading of OTC foreign currency transactions.  Transactions that have been entered into prior to implementation of the provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act will remain in effect.  Accordingly, even after the new regulatory framework is fully implemented, the risks of OTC foreign exchange transactions will continue to be considerations with respect to transactions entered into prior to the implementation of the provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act.  The implementation of these provisions could adversely affect the Fund by increasing transaction and compliance costs.

5

Trading swaps creates distinctive risks.  The Fund currently does not trade in certain swaps, but may do so in the future.  Unlike futures and options on futures contracts and commodities, swap contracts are currently not generally traded on or cleared by an exchange or clearinghouse.   As a result, many of the protections afforded to participants on organized exchanges and in a regulated environment are not available in connection with these transactions.  The swap markets are “principals’ markets,” in which performance with respect to a swap is the responsibility only of the counterparty to the contract, and not of any exchange or clearinghouse.  To the extent the Fund trades swaps, it will be subject to the risk of the inability or refusal to perform with respect to swaps on the part of the counterparties, and until such time as these transactions are cleared or guaranteed by an exchange, the Fund will be subject to the risk of counterparty default on its swaps.  In some swap transactions the counterparty may require the Fund to deposit collateral to support the Fund’s obligations under a swap agreement.  If the counterparty to such a swap defaults, the Fund would lose the net amount of payments that the Fund is contractually entitled to receive and could lose, in addition, any collateral deposits made with the counterparty.  Participants in the swap markets are not required to make continuous markets in the swaps they trade.

However, the regulation of swaps may be subject to substantial change under recently-enacted legislation and pending regulatory action.  It is not known exactly how such changes will impact existing swaps positions.  These new requirements, however, will alter the manner in which swaps will be traded.  Under the Dodd-Frank Act, many commodity swaps will be required to be cleared through clearing houses and executed on designated contract markets or swap execution facilities.  Security-based swaps will be subject to similar requirements as will apply to commodity swaps.  Additional regulatory requirements will apply to all swaps.

The Fund is Subject to Speculative Position Limits. The CFTC and/or U.S. exchanges have established “speculative position limits” on the maximum net long or net short position, which any person or group of persons may hold or control in particular futures, options on futures and swaps that perform a significant price discovery function.  Most exchanges also limit the amount of fluctuation in commodity futures contract prices on a single trading day.  The trading instructions of the trading advisors may have to be modified, and positions held by the Fund may have to be liquidated in order to avoid exceeding these limits.  Such modification or liquidation could adversely affect the operations and profitability of the Fund by increasing transaction costs to liquidate positions and limiting potential profits on the liquidated positions.

In October 2011, the CFTC adopted new rules governing position limits.  In September 2012, these rules were vacated by the United States District Court for the District of Columbia and remanded to the CFTC for further consideration.  It is possible, nevertheless, that these rules may take effect in some form via re-promulgation or a successful appeal by the CFTC of the District Court’s ruling.  The vacated rules established position limits on certain futures contracts and any economically equivalent futures, options and swaps.  These rules could have an adverse effect on the trading advisors and the Fund.

Trading in Options.   The Portfolio Managers have traded futures and forward options in the past and may trade such instruments in the future.  Although successful options trading requires many of the same skills as successful futures and forward trading, the risks involved are somewhat different.  For example, the assessment of near-term market volatility — which is directly reflected in the price of outstanding options — can be of much greater significance in trading options than it is in many long-term futures strategies.  The use of options can be extremely expensive if market volatility is incorrectly predicted.

Trading in Spreads.   The Portfolio Managers may trade spread positions on behalf of the Investee Pools.  While often considered a more stable form of investment, spread trading is not without its own risk.  For example, spread trading has much higher transaction (commission) costs due to the use of multiple positions. Furthermore, spreads can be less liquid than other trades, which could prove detrimental should a Portfolio Manager need to exit a position quickly.  Additionally, spreads generally have limited profit potential.   More specifically, should the Portfolio Managers choose to trade in time spreads, additional risks would include (1) the amount paid for the time spread, as the maximum value of such trade would ultimately depend on the value of the deferred month option when the front month option expires, and (2) assignment of a short option, which would transform a time spread into another position

6

Stop-Loss orders may not prevent large losses.  Certain of the trading advisors may use stop-loss orders.  Such stop-loss orders may not effectively prevent substantial losses, and depending on market factors at the time, may not be able to be executed at such stop-loss levels.  No risk control technique can assure that large losses will be avoided.

Trading on non-U.S. futures exchanges presents greater risk than trading on U.S. futures exchanges.   The Investee Pools may trade on futures exchanges outside the United States.  Trading on such exchanges is not regulated by any United States government agency and may involve certain risks not applicable to trading on United States exchanges.  For example, some non-U.S. exchanges, in contrast to United States exchanges, are “principals’ markets” similar to the forward markets in which performance is the responsibility only of the individual exchange member with whom the Investee Pool has entered into a futures contract and not of any exchange or clearing corporation.  In such cases, the Investee Pool will be subject to the risk of the inability or refusal to perform with respect to the individual exchange member with whom the Investee Pool has entered into a futures contract.  Trading on foreign exchanges involves the additional risks of expropriation, burdensome or confiscatory taxation, moratoriums, exchange or investment controls and political or diplomatic disruptions, each of which might materially adversely affect an Investee Pool’s trading activities.  In trading on foreign exchanges, the Investee Pool is also subject to the risk of changes in the exchange rates between the United States dollar and the currencies in which the foreign contracts are settled.

The Fund will incur substantial charges which will reduce profits.   The Fund is obligated to pay the Managing Member Management Fees and Administrative Fees regardless of whether the Fund is profitable.  In addition, the Managing Member receives, with respect to each Unit, an Incentive Allocation equal to the applicable percentage of New Net Profits earned with respect to such Unit.  Stated generally, New Net Profits are based upon the increase in value of each Unit at the end of each month including any unrealized appreciation in open futures, forward and commodity interest positions and positions in Investee Pools.  Each Class is also subject to its pro rata share of the management fee, incentive fee and other fees of the Investee Pools.

Forward trading is conducted in a principals’ market in which counterparties buy and sell currencies among each other, including a “bid-ask” spread in their pricing.  Institutions trading in such markets do not pay brokerage commissions in addition to such spreads.  It is not possible to quantify the “bid-ask” spreads paid by the Portfolio Managers in respect of its currency trading because it is not possible for the Portfolio Manager to know what, if any, profit its counterparty is making on the forward trades into which it enters.  However, these spreads represent a significant direct or indirect execution cost to the Fund.

Trading decisions based on technical systems rely on market movements to be effective.   Allocation decisions of the Portfolio Managers may not be determined by analysis of fundamental supply and demand factors, general economic factors or anticipated world events, but by technical trading systems involving trend analysis and other factors and the money management principles developed by the Portfolio Managers and their affiliates.  The profitability of any trading system involving technical trend analysis depends upon the occurrence in the future of significant sustained price moves in at least some of the markets traded.  Without such sustained price moves in at least some of the markets traded, the Portfolio Managers’ trend-following systems are unlikely to produce profits and the Fund could suffer significant losses.  The Managing Member believes that investors should consider the Units as a medium- to long-term investment (three years or more) to permit the trading method to function over a significant period.

Discretionary aspects of the Portfolio Managers’ strategies may result in unprofitable trades.  Although the Portfolio Managers generally apply highly systematic strategies, these strategies retain certain discretionary aspects.  Decisions, for example, to adjust the size of positions indicated by the systematic strategies, which futures contracts to trade and method of order entry require judgmental input from the Portfolio Managers’ principals.  Discretionary decision-making may result in the Portfolio Managers making unprofitable trades in situations when a more wholly systematic approach would not have done so.

Technical trading systems may detrimentally alter historical trading patterns or affect the execution of trades.   There has been, in recent years, a substantial increase in interest in technical futures trading systems, particularly trend-following systems.  As the capital under the management of trading systems based on the same general principles increases, an increasing number of traders may attempt to initiate or liquidate substantial positions at or about the same time as the Investee Pools or the Fund, or otherwise alter historical trading patterns or affect the execution of trades, to the significant detriment of the Investee Pools and/or the Fund.

7

Although the Investee Pools and the Fund are as likely to be profitable as unprofitable in up or down markets, there is some tendency for managed futures products — particularly those managed by systematic, trend-following advisors — to perform similarly during the same or approximately the same periods.  Prospective investors must recognize that, irrespective of the skill and expertise of the Managing Member and the Portfolio Managers, the success of the Fund may be substantially dependent on general market conditions over which the Managing Member and the Portfolio Managers have no control.

In addition, there has been an increase in the use of trading systems employing counter-trend techniques that attempt to profit from the wide use of trend following systems by running stop points or otherwise.  The increased use of such techniques could alter trading patterns that the Managing Member and the Portfolio Managers attempt to exploit to the detriment of the Fund.

The Investee Pools and Portfolio Managers may modify their trading methods without approval by or notice to the Managing Member.  Modifications may include changes in or substitution of technical trading systems, risk control overlays, money management principles and markets traded and introduction of non-technical factors and methods of analysis and non-trend-following technical systems and methods of analysis.  The trading systems to be utilized by the Investee Pools and Portfolio Managers are proprietary and confidential.

There is the potential for a lack of diversification among Portfolio Managers. Although the Managing Member intends to invest the Fund’s capital with a number of Portfolio Managers, it is possible that certain or all of such Portfolio Managers may utilize similar or overlapping investment strategies. Portfolio Managers utilizing similar specialized strategies may hold identical investments. As a result, the Fund may at any time hold a few relatively large (in relation to its capital) investments with the result that a loss in any such position could have a material adverse impact on the Fund’s capital.

Investors in the Fund may not be informed of changes in allocations to Investee Pools. The Managing Member expects from time to time to change the percentage of Fund assets allocated to each Investee Pool. The Fund may not be required, under certain circumstances, to notify Members of changes in allocations. In addition, the Fund will be required to change allocations if it receives additional subscriptions during periods when certain Investee Pools are no longer accepting additional funds (for example, because of capacity restrictions). In that case, the additional capital would either have to be allocated to those Investee Pools (if any) that were accepting additional funds, which would alter the respective percentages of the Fund’s assets allocated to particular Investee Pools, or the Fund would have to place some or all of the additional capital with new Investee Pools or make direct investments. Therefore, the Fund’s success may depend not only on the current Investee Pools and the Managing Member's ability to allocate Fund assets successfully among those Investee Pools, but also the ability to identify new Portfolio Managers and Investee Pools.

Investing in Investee Pools poses risks of inadequate information and limited liquidity. Although the Managing Member will attempt to monitor the performance of each Investee Pool, the Fund will not receive information regarding the actual investments made by the Investee Pools and must ultimately rely on (i) the CPO and CTA of each Investee Pool to operate in accordance with the investment strategy or the guidelines laid out by the CPO and CTA of the Investee Pool, and (ii) the accuracy of the information provided to the Fund by the CPO and CTA of the Investee Pool. If the CPO and CTA of an Investee Pool does not operate and manage such pool in accordance with the investment strategy or guidelines specified for such pool, or if the information furnished by an Investee Pool is not accurate, the Fund might sustain losses with respect to its investment in such Investee Pool despite the Managing Member’s attempts to monitor such Investee Pool.

In addition, Investee Pools may have restrictions in their governing documents that limit the Fund’s ability to withdraw funds from or invest in the pool. The Fund’s ability to withdraw funds from or invest funds in Investee Pools with such restrictions will be limited and such restrictions will limit flexibility to reallocate such assets among Investee Pools or to honor Member redemptions.

8

There is a lack of limited liability when investing in managed accounts. From time to time, the Fund may establish and invest in separately managed accounts managed by Portfolio Managers, as opposed to investing in Investee Pools. Separately managed accounts are typically not subject to the limitations on liability of investors generally offered by Investee Pools. Accordingly, the Fund would be subject to the risk of losses beyond its allocation of assets to such account and, potentially, could lose all of its assets as the result of its investment in such account.  To minimize this risk, the Managing Member has established a number of trading companies (limited liability companies formed in Delaware) through which assets would be allocated to Managed Accounts.

Incentive compensation for Portfolio Managers may result in more risky or speculative investments. The governing documents of the Investee Pools generally will provide for the Fund’s payment, as an investor in the Investee Pool, of fees or allocations of profits to the Portfolio Manager based upon appreciation, including unrealized appreciation, in the value of the Fund’s investment in the Investee Pool, but without penalties for realized losses or decreases in value of the Fund’s investment. The Portfolio Manager’s compensation or profit share may be determined separately for each quarter or each year, although losses in a quarter or year are often carried forward to subsequent quarters or years in determining the payment for such quarter or year. A Portfolio Manager’s incentive compensation arrangements may give the Portfolio Manager an incentive to make more risky or speculative investments.

Incentive fees may be paid to Portfolio Managers even though the Fund sustains trading losses.   The incentive fees or allocations payable in respect of each Investee Pool are assessed individually based on the performance of each respective Investee Pool, irrespective of the overall performance of the Fund.  Moreover, incentive fees and allocations are generally calculated based on the Fund’s total investment in an Investee Pool, not on the basis of each separate investment by the Fund in each Investee Pool.  In view of the foregoing, it is possible that the Fund may be required to pay certain Portfolio Managers incentive fees or allocations, which could be substantial, even though the Fund as a whole was not profitable.

Speculative position limits may be exceeded by the Portfolio Managers.   The CFTC and United States exchanges have established limits referred to as “position limits” on the maximum net long or net short speculative futures position which any person may hold or control in particular futures contracts.  Generally, banks and dealers do not impose such limits with respect to forward contracts in currencies.  All futures accounts managed by the Portfolio Managers and their affiliates are combined for position limit purposes.  With respect to trading in futures contracts subject to position limits (for example, corn, wheat, cotton, soybeans, soybean meal and oil), the Portfolio Managers may reduce the size of the positions which would otherwise be taken for the Investee Pools or the Fund to avoid exceeding the limits.  If position limits are exceeded by the Portfolio Managers in the opinion of the CFTC or any other regulatory body, exchange or board, the Portfolio Managers generally will liquidate positions in all accounts under their management, including the Investee Pools or the Fund, as nearly as possible in proportion to respective amounts of equity in each account to the extent necessary to comply with applicable position limits.

The Dodd-Frank Act required the CFTC to adopt speculative position limits in certain commodities across futures markets, OTC transactions that perform a significant price discovery function and contracts traded on a foreign board of trade having direct market access from the U.S. that settle against the price of futures contracts traded on a U.S. market.  The CFTC has adopted such limits with respect to certain agricultural, energy, and metal contracts.  Such proposals and limits are subject to change and may adversely affect the profitability of the Fund.

Conflicts of interest may exist with other clients of the Portfolio Managers, the Managing Member, and their affiliates.   The Portfolio Managers, the Managing Member, and the Investment Committee Members manage futures and forward accounts or Investee Pools other than the Fund, including, possibly, accounts in which the Portfolio Managers, the Managing Member, and the Investment Committee Members, their principals and employees have significant investments.  The Portfolio Managers, the Managing Member, and the Investment Committee Members and their affiliates may manage additional accounts in the future.  It is possible that such accounts may be in competition with the Fund for the same or similar positions in the futures and forward markets.  The Portfolio Managers generally will use similar trading methods for the Fund and all other systematic accounts that the Portfolio Managers and their affiliates manage.  The Portfolio Managers will not knowingly or deliberately use systems for any account that are inferior to systems employed for any other account or favor any account over any other account.  No assurance is given, however, that the results of the Fund’s trading will be similar to that of other accounts concurrently managed by the Portfolio Managers or their affiliates.

9

An increase in the assets managed by the Portfolio Managers may adversely affect trading strategies and performance.  The Portfolio Managers have not agreed to limit the amount of additional equity which they may manage.  The rates of return achieved by investment advisors often tend to degrade as assets under management increase.  There can be no assurance that the Portfolio Managers’ strategies will not be adversely affected by additional equity, including the Fund’s account, accepted by the Portfolio Managers.

Portfolio Managers and the Managing Member depend on the services of key personnel.   Despite the systematic methods used by many of the Portfolio Managers, the Managing Member and the Investment Committee, they are dependent on the services of a limited number of key persons.  The loss of any of such persons could make it more difficult for the Portfolio Managers, the Managing Member and the Investment Committee to continue to manage Investee Pools or the Fund.

Investors have limited ability to liquidate an investment in the Fund.  An investment in the Fund cannot be immediately liquidated by a Member.  Units may be transferred only under very limited circumstances and no market for Units will exist at any time.  A Member can liquidate such Member’s investment through redemption of the Units.  A Member may redeem all or a portion of such Member’s Units as of the last day of any month on ten days’ written notice to the Managing Member.  Because notices of redemption must be submitted significantly in advance of the actual redemption date, the value received upon redemption may differ significantly from the value of the Units at the time a decision to redeem is made.  Furthermore, because redemptions only are permitted at month-end, investors are not able to select the value, or even the approximate value, at which they will redeem their Units.

The Managing Member has the authority to suspend or defer the payment of redemptions in certain extraordinary circumstances when the Managing Member believes doing so would be in the best interest of the Fund, the Members or the redeeming Members.  Such circumstances may include extremely large redemption requests, a suspension or deferral of the calculation of the NAV of the Investee Pools, or an inability for the Fund to redeem its investments in the Investee Pools.

Conflicts of interest are inherent in the operation of the Fund.   The Fund will be subject to a number of actual and potential conflicts of interest.  Such conflicts may include, among other things, the possibility of the Portfolio Managers, the Managing Member, and the Investment Committee, a commodity broker for an Investee Pool or the Fund or any of their respective affiliates favoring other customer accounts or their own proprietary trading in certain respects over that of the Fund.

Members will not participate in management.   Purchasers of Units will not be entitled to participate in the management of the Fund or the conduct of its business.

The Fund is not a Registered Investment Company.  The Fund is not required to register, and is not registered, as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”).  Accordingly, investors will not have the protections afforded by the Investment Company Act (which, among other matters, requires investment companies to have a majority of disinterested directors and regulates the relationship between the advisor and the investment company).

An investment in the Fund may expose investors to complex tax considerations.  An investment in the Fund may present complex tax considerations for investors.

10

Partnership treatment is not assured.  There is a risk that the Fund, having more than 100 Members, may be treated as a “publicly traded partnership” taxable as a corporation for federal income tax purposes.  Nevertheless, the Fund in all events will be treated as a partnership for federal income tax purpose so long as at least 90% of its annual gross income consists of “qualifying income” as defined in Section 7704 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) and the Federal Income Tax Regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Regulations”).  The Managing Member believes it is likely, but not certain, that the Fund will meet the qualifying income test.  If the Fund were to be treated as a corporation instead of as a partnership for federal income tax purposes, (i) the net income of the Fund would be taxed at corporate income tax rates, thereby substantially reducing its profitability, (ii) Members would not be allowed to deduct their share of Fund losses and (iii) distributions to Members, other than liquidating distributions, would constitute dividends to the extent of the current or accumulated earnings and profits of the Fund, and would be taxable as such.

You may have tax liability attributable to your interest in the Fund even if you have received no distributions and redeemed no units and even if the Fund generated a loss.  If the Fund has profit for a taxable year, the profit will be includible in your taxable income, whether or not cash or other property is actually distributed to you by the Fund.  The Managing Member presently does not intend to make any distributions from the Fund.  Accordingly, it is anticipated that federal income taxes on your allocable share of the Fund’s profits will exceed the amount of distributions to you, if any, for a taxable year, so that you must be prepared to fund any tax liability from redemptions of Units or other sources.  In addition, the Fund may have capital losses from trading activities that cannot be deducted against the Fund’s ordinary income (e.g., interest income, periodic net swap payments) so that you may have to pay taxes on ordinary income even if the Fund generates a net loss.

There is the possibility of a tax audit.  The Fund’s tax returns could be audited by a taxing authority.  An audit could result in adjustments to the Fund’s tax returns.  If an audit results in an adjustment to the Fund’s tax returns, Members could be required to file amended returns and to pay additional taxes plus interest.

Tax deductions are limited. A Member’s ability to claim a current deduction for certain expenses and losses, including capital losses of the Fund, is subject to various limitations.

Deductibility of passive activity losses is limited.  Applicable U.S. federal income tax regulations treat all Fund income, gains and losses allocable to non-corporate (and certain corporate) Members as non-passive activity income, gains and losses.  Accordingly, such Members will be unable to offset their passive activity losses from other investments against their income from this investment, but Fund losses will not be subject to the limitations imposed on the deductibility of passive activity losses.

There is a risk of incurring unrelated business taxable income.  Income derived by the Fund from “debt-financed property” will be treated as unrelated business taxable income (“UBTI”), which is taxable to a tax-exempt organization.  Although not currently anticipated, it is possible that a Portfolio Manager might acquire debt-financed property.  Therefore, this investment might not be suitable for certain tax-exempt investors seeking to avoid UBTI.

Schedules K-1 may be delayed.  The Fund will attempt to, but cannot assure that it will be able to, provide a final Schedule K-1 to Members for any given calendar year by April 15 of the following year.  In the event that it is not able to do so, the Fund will endeavor to provide estimates of the taxable income or loss allocated to Members on or before April 15.  Accordingly, Members may be required to obtain an extension of the filing date for their income tax returns at the federal, state and local levels.

Tax laws are subject to change at any time, including already enacted changes scheduled to take effect in 2013. Tax laws, and court and IRS interpretations thereof, are subject to change at any time, possibly with retroactive effect.  For example, various tax rate reductions for non-corporate taxpayers enacted in 2001 and 2003 are scheduled to expire for taxable years beginning after December 31, 2012.  Further, the maximum ordinary income rates for non-corporate taxpayers are scheduled to increase from 35% to 39.6%, and the maximum long-term capital gains rates are scheduled to increase from 15% to 20%.  Prospective investors are urged to discuss scheduled and potential tax law changes with their tax advisers.

Non-U.S. investors may face exchange rate risk and local tax consequences.  Non-U.S. investors should note that Units are denominated in U.S. dollars and that changes in rates of exchange between currencies may cause the value of their investment to decrease or to increase.  Non-U.S. investors should consult their own tax advisors concerning the applicable U.S. and foreign tax implications of this investment.

11

Certain Investee Pools are exempt from registration. The Fund may invest in Investee Pools which operate in a manner so as to be exempt the Portfolio Manager from registration as a commodity pool operator pursuant to CFTC Regulation 4.13(a)(4).  Such exempt Investee Pools are therefore not required to deliver a disclosure document and a certified annual report to participants in the Investee Pool.  Therefore, the information regarding such investment will not have the same regulatory oversight as if the Investee Pool were required to register.

Regulation of the Fund is limited.   Although the Fund and the Managing Member are subject to regulation by the CFTC, the Fund is not registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940.  Investors are, therefore, not accorded the protection provided by such legislation.

Future regulatory and market changes may be material and adverse to the Fund.   The regulation of the United States commodities markets has undergone substantial change in recent years, a process which is expected to continue.  In addition, a number of substantial regulatory changes are pending or in progress in certain foreign markets.  The effect of regulatory change on the Fund is impossible to predict but could be material and adverse. The rulemaking process related to the passage of the Dodd-Frank Act is ongoing and may have an impact on the Fund.

Some concern has been expressed by various governmental authorities that the impact of speculative pools of capital, such as the Fund, on international currency trading is making it significantly more costly and difficult for central banks and governments to influence exchange rates.  This and similar concerns could lead to pressure to restrict the access of speculative capital to these markets.

In addition to regulatory changes, the economic features of the markets to be traded by the Fund have undergone, and are expected to continue to undergo, rapid and substantial changes as new strategies and instruments have been introduced.  Furthermore, the number of participants, particularly institutional participants, in the futures and forward markets appears to have expanded substantially.  There can be no assurance as to how the Managing Member will perform given the changes to, and increased competition in, the marketplace.

Conflicts of Interest of the Managing Member.  The Managing Member has a conflict of interest in determining whether to make distributions to the Members, as the Managing Member earns fees on the Net Assets of the Fund.  Due in part to the availability of periodic withdrawals, the Managing Member does not currently intend to make any distributions to Members.

The Managing Member’s business is sponsoring and advising managed futures accounts.  The Managing Member may have an economic or other incentive to favor other of its products over the Fund.

The Managing Member may have a conflict of interest in rendering advice to the Fund because of other accounts managed or traded by it, including accounts owned by its principals, which may be traded differently from the Fund’s account.   The Managing Member, its principals and employees are not prohibited from participating in other business ventures which may compete with the Fund, including serving in similar capacities for other investment funds.  Such other activities may prevent the Managing Member, its principals and employees from devoting their full time and attention to the activities of the Fund.  The Managing Member may also provide management and investment advisory services to other clients, including investment funds and managed accounts or offshore funds that follow investment programs similar to or different from that of the Fund. The Fund will have no interest in the accounts of such other clients. A number of actual and potential conflicts of interest between the Fund and these clients may exist which include, but are not limited to, those described herein. Conflicts may arise as to the allocation of investment opportunities between the Fund and other entities which the Managing Member manages or advises. Moreover, it is possible that conflicts may arise because the investment position of one investment partnership may at any time be different than that of other clients.   Although other accounts may pursue investment objectives that are similar to the Fund, the portfolios of the Fund and such accounts may differ as a result of inflows and outflows of capital being made at different times and in different amounts, as well as because of different tax and regulatory considerations.

12

 The Managing Member, the Fund’s brokers and their respective principals, affiliates and employees may trade in the commodity markets for their own accounts and the accounts of their clients, and in doing so may take positions opposite to those held by the Fund or may be competing with the Fund for positions in the marketplace.  Such trading may create conflicts of interest on behalf of one or more such persons in respect of their obligations to the Fund. There are currently no accounts being traded directly or indirectly for the benefit of the Managing Member or its principals and none are contemplated in the immediate future

Because the Managing Member, the Fund’s brokers and their respective affiliates, principals and employees may trade for their own respective accounts at the same time that they are managing the Fund’s account, prospective investors should be aware that – as a result of a neutral allocation system, testing a new trading system, trading their proprietary accounts more aggressively or other actions – such persons may from time to time take positions in their proprietary accounts which are opposite, or ahead of, the positions taken for the Fund.  Moreover, the Managing Member, its affiliates, principals and employees may invest with the same or different Investee Pools and Portfolio Managers as the Fund.

Conflicts of Interest of the Placement Agent.  The Managing Member has entered into an agreement with its wholly-owned subsidiary, Frontier Solutions, LLC, the Broker/Dealer, for placement of Units.  This may create a conflict of interest because the Managing Member may benefit from higher earnings if there is more money invested in the Fund.  In addition, the Broker/Dealer may undertake a less stringent due diligence review than an independent placement agent.

Conflicts of Interest of the Portfolio Managers.  Each Portfolio Manager and its principals are entitled to engage in other activities, including managing other discretionary accounts and Investee Pools.  Accordingly, conflicts may arise with respect to the time and resources that a Portfolio Manager and its principals devote to an Investee Pool, allocation of investment opportunities between an Investee Pool and other accounts managed by a Portfolio Manager, or transactions between a Portfolio Manager and its affiliates on behalf of an Investee Pool.

Conflicts of interest may arise from the fact that the Portfolio Managers and their affiliates generally will be carrying on substantial investment activities for other clients, including other Investee Pools, in which the Fund will have no interest.  The Portfolio Managers may have financial incentives to favor certain of such accounts over an Investee Pool.  Any of their proprietary accounts and other customer accounts may compete with the Investee Pool for specific trades, or may hold positions opposite to positions maintained on behalf of an Investee Pool.  The Portfolio Managers may give advice and recommend securities to, or buy or sell securities for, Investee Pools, which advice or securities may differ from advice given to, or securities recommended or bought or sold for, other accounts and customers even though their investment objectives may be the same as, or similar to, those of the Investee Pools.

Conflicts of Interest of the Selling Agents.  Unaffiliated registered broker/dealers (“Selling Agents”) retained by the Managing Member to act as its agent in connection with sale of interests in the Fund receive ongoing compensation based on the value of outstanding Units sold by such Selling Agent.  Accordingly, to the extent that Members consult with registered representatives of a Selling Agent regarding the advisability of purchasing or withdrawing Units, such representatives may have a conflict of interest between giving such Members the advice that such representatives believe is in the Members’ best interest and encouraging purchases and discouraging withdrawals so as to maximize the additional compensation payable to such Selling Agent by the Managing Member.  In addition, certain registered representatives of the Selling Agents will receive ongoing additional compensation in respect of Units sold by them that remain outstanding and will, accordingly, have a direct financial incentive to encourage purchases and discourage withdrawals of Units.

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

Liquidity.  There are no known demands, commitments, events or uncertainties that will result in or are reasonably likely to result in the Fund’s liquidity increasing or decreasing in any material way.   However, during 2012 the Fund has had redemptions including non-cash transactions of $45,780,251.  The investments that the Fund invests in have varying liquidity opportunities ranging from daily to annually.  The Fund maintains a limited cash position, but sufficient to cover current and anticipated liabilities including withdrawal requests by Members.  Redemption requests could be delayed due to liquidity constraints of Investee Pools.  Additionally, no material deficiencies in liquidity were identified and there were no material unused sources of liquid assets.

Capital Resources.  There are no commitments for capital expenditures as of the end of the latest fiscal period.  Since inception, capital invested in the Fund has increased as investors continue to purchase interests in the Fund.  The Fund anticipates offering interests on a continuing basis, increasing the total capital available for investment.  There are no known material trends, favorable or unfavorable, that would affect, nor any expected material changes to, the Fund’s capital resource arrangements at the present time.

Results of Operations.  The Fund is a collective investment pool.  The net assets invested in the pool decreased by approximately 44.0%, or approximately $36.9 million in 2012 as result of redemptions by existing investors and as a result of operations.  During 2011, net assets decreased by approximately $15.9 million.  During 2010, 2009, and 2008, net assets (decreased) increased by approximately ($669) thousand, ($15.5) million, and $29.9 million respectively.

The year was not kind to managed futures.  Trend-based strategies in general suffered as choppy markets proved extremely difficult to trade.  Managed futures suffered its second losing year in a row, the first time in 33 years, according to the Barclay CTA database.  In any given year, the elements that lead to a certain outcome can be nearly infinite in scope, but for the same outcome to occur for two consecutive years is an indication that an anomalous market condition has persisted.  In our view, this condition is the high degree of government intervention in the form of quantitative easing (QE).

QE is an unconventional monetary policy used by central banks to stimulate economies when traditional approaches become ineffective.  A central bank implements QE by purchasing financial assets from banks, thus creating money and injecting liquidity into the markets.  The U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed) has used this strategy to keep interest rates artificially low since the credit crisis in 2008.

The Fed has declared its intent to keep short-term rates close to 0% until the employment rate improves.  But the result of QE has had many more ramifications, one of which is the growing dependence of the markets on economic releases and Fed announcements.  As a result, markets become “backstopped” and are prevented from reaching their natural equilibrium price.  This caused numerous trend interruptions, which proved very difficult for most trading advisors to incorporate into their trading strategies.  The result was flat to negative performance for the asset class.

Fortunately, it appears that most of the effect of this artificial stimulus has already been seen. The growth in assets has slowed dramatically over time, and was relatively flat in 2012.

The Fund ended the year with a loss of 3.91%.  This result is roughly in line with most of the industry indices, and is generally better than the return of other multi-advisor CTA funds.  At year-end, The Fund was composed of  eight different managed accounts.  Losses were evident across the entire managed futures strategy spectrum.  Negative performance was particularly pronounced in trend-following.  Our specialized commodity managers fared better, as well as our short-term traders.  Longer-term CTAs tended to outpace their intermediate-term counterparts.

Performance of the Fund may vary considerably from one period to the next.

Investee Pool performance during the year ended December 31, 2012 coupled with ongoing operating expenses resulted in a net loss for the overall pool and each Class of Units in the Fund as shown in the chart below. The comparative performance for the years ended December 31, 2011, 2010, 2009, and 2008 is also presented below.

† Class C Units were first issued April 1, 2008.

Differences in the performance results between different classes of units are primarily attributable to the different fee structures of each class of units.   Results may also vary considerably when compared to results from the same period in previous years.   The differences between performance from one year to the next is attributable to general market conditions, the timing of the purchase and sale of units by class, changes to the Investee Pools in which the Fund invests, and reallocations of investments among Investee Pools made by the Investment Committee of the Fund.  Finally, Class C Units were first issued on April 1, 2008 and therefore participated in the performance results of the Investee Pools for only nine months of 2008, which contributed to the lower performance achieved by the Class C Units in 2008 as compared to the other classes of units.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements. Not applicable.

Tabular Disclosure of Contractual Obligations.  Not applicable.

Item 7A.  Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

The Fund is a speculative commodity pool.  The market sensitive instruments held by the Fund are acquired for speculative trading purposes, and all or a substantial amount of the Fund’s assets are subject to the risk of trading loss.  Unlike an operating company, the risk of market sensitive instruments is integral, not incidental, to the Fund’s main line of business.

Market movements result in frequent changes in the fair market value of the Fund’s holdings and, consequently, in its earnings and cash flow.  The Fund’s market risk is directly influenced by the market risk inherent in the trading of market sensitive instruments traded by Investee Pools.  Holdings by Investee Pools are influenced by a wide variety of factors, including the level and volatility of exchange rates, interest rates, equity price levels, the market value of financial instruments and contracts, the diversification effects among the Investee Pools’ open positions and the liquidity of the markets in which they trade.

Investee Pools rapidly acquire and 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 Fund’s past performance is not indicative of its future results.  See “Item 1A. Risk Factors” for a discussion of trading and non-trading risk factors applicable to the Fund and Investee Pools.

Value at Risk is a measure of the maximum amount which the Fund could reasonably be expected to lose in a given market sector.  The exposure by Investee Pools to various market sectors is not transparent to the Fund and therefore, it is not possible to calculate the Value at Risk in any particular market sector.  The Value at Risk exposure of the Fund with any given Investee Pool is the amount of capital invested with that Investee Pool, as set forth below.  The following quantitative disclosures regarding the Fund’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 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934). 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.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Members of

Aspen Diversified Fund LLC

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities of Aspen Diversified Fund LLC (the “Fund”) as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the related statements of operations, changes in net assets and cash flows for the three years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Fund’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. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audit 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 Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as 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 Aspen Diversified Fund LLC as of December 31, 2012 and 2011, and the results of its operations and cash flows for the three years ended December 31, 2012, 2011 and 2010, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Aspen Diversified Fund LLC

Notes to Financial Statements

NOTE A – DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Aspen Diversified Fund, LLC (“the Fund”) is a Delaware Limited Liability Company organized under the laws of Delaware in April 2005.  The Fund began investment operations on July 1, 2005.

The Fund’s business is trading a diversified portfolio of futures, forward and option contracts on currencies, metals, financial instruments, stock indices, energy and agricultural commodities.  The Fund is organized as a “multi-advisor” commodity pool and invests its assets in other pooled investment vehicles (“Investee Pools”) as well as separately managed accounts (together with Investee Pools, “Investment Funds”) managed or traded by independent Commodity Trading Advisors (“CTAs”), or other portfolio managers (together “Portfolio Managers”).

Investment Funds may trade diversified portfolios of futures in U.S. and non-U.S. markets in an effort to actively profit from anticipated trends in market prices. Portfolio Managers may rely on either technical or fundamental analysis or a combination thereof in making trading decisions and attempting to identify and exploit price trends.  Portfolio Managers will attempt to structure portfolios of liquid futures contracts including but not limited to stock index, global currency, interest rate, metals, energy and agricultural futures markets.

Aspen Partners, Ltd. (the “Managing Member”), acts as the managing member, commodity pool operator, and trading adviser of the Fund.  As of December 31, 2012, the Managing Member had approximately $165.7 million of assets under management, including assets of the Fund.  The Managing Member is a registered investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940,  as amended (the “Advisers Act”), and is a registered Introducing Broker (“IB”) and Commodity Pool Operator (“CPO”) with the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (the "CFTC") and a member of the National Futures Association (the "NFA").

The Managing Member is responsible for recommending the selection of, investment in and withdrawal from investment funds, to the investment committee of the Fund (the “Investment Committee”), which consists of principals of the Managing Member.  The Managing Member generally will, in its sole discretion, implement the decisions made by the Investment Committee, although it is not required to do so.

Interests in the Fund are marketed through Frontier Solutions, LLC (the “Broker/Dealer”), a Georgia limited liability company. The Broker/Dealer is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Managing Member and is a registered Broker/Dealer with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”).

Aspen Partners, Ltd. is responsible for the daily operations of the Fund, as well as facilitating instructions of the Investment Committee.  Interests in the Fund are marketed through the Managing Member’s wholly-owned broker/dealer subsidiary, Frontier Solutions, LLC.  Aspen Partners, Ltd. participates in the investment decisions of the Fund via the Fund’s Investment Committee.

In 2010, the Fund transferred assets into a new fund called Aspen Commodity Long/Short Fund LLC (“ACLSF”) in exchange for units in that fund.  The purpose of this transfer was to provide investors with the opportunity to invest in commodities, separate from other investments that are included in the Fund, such as currencies, financials instruments, and stock indices.  The Fund continues to invest in Aspen Commodity Long/Short Fund LLC.

Aspen Diversified Fund LLC

Notes to Financial Statements

NOTE A – DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – Continued

The following accounting policies are presented to assist the reader in understanding the Fund’s financial statements:

Valuation of Investments in Investment Funds

The Fund values investments in Investment Funds for which there is no ready market at fair value as determined by the Managing Member.

The valuation of Investment Funds purchased or held by the Fund ordinarily will be based on the value provided most recently to the Managing Member by each Investment Fund which the Managing Member believes to be reliable and which reflects the amount that the Fund might reasonably expect to receive for the position if the Fund’s interest were redeemed at the time of valuation. The Managing Member’s reliance on or consideration of the values of Investment Funds will be based on: (i) due diligence performed prior to making an investment in an Investment Fund; (ii) ongoing due diligence and monitoring; (iii) periodic variation analysis and review by the Fund and/or the Fund’s auditors; and (iv) any other information reasonably available from the market or other third parties.

In certain circumstances, the Managing Member may determine that the value provided by an Investment Fund does not represent the fair value of the Fund’s interests in the Investment Fund. This determination may be based upon, among other things: (i) the absence of transaction activity in interests in a particular Investment Fund; (ii) the imposition by an Investment Fund of extraordinary restrictions on redemptions, including limitations on the percentage of Investment Fund assets that may be redeemed during a certain time period; (iii) a determination by the Managing Member that it would be impracticable to liquidate the Fund’s holdings in a particular Investment Fund; (iv) a conclusion that the Investment Fund’s valuation was based on valuation procedures that do not provide for valuation of underlying securities at market value or fair value as appropriate; (v) actual knowledge (if any) of the value of underlying portfolio holdings; (vi) ongoing due diligence and monitoring that indicates that the valuation provided by the Investment Fund is not reliable, such as significant variations between estimates and final values provided by an Investment Fund or lesser variations that occur on a regular basis with respect to a specific Investment Fund; or (vii) available market data or other relevant circumstances, including unusual or extraordinary circumstances.

In the event that an Investment Fund does not report a month-end value to the Fund on a timely basis, the fair value of the Investment Fund will be based on the most recent value reported by the Investment Fund, as well as any other relevant information available at the time the Fund values its portfolio. In this unusual event, it may be appropriate to consider the factors set forth herein, provided, however, that the Managing Member may not find such factors useful if, among other things, the Investment Fund in question is intended to have low correlation with the overall markets or a particular market (in which case the Managing Member may not have information necessary to determine whether a discount or premium would best reflect such significant events).

Where deemed appropriate by the Managing Member, investments in Investment Funds or illiquid securities may be valued at cost. Cost will be used only when the Managing Member determines that cost best approximates the fair value of the particular position under consideration. For example, cost may not be appropriate when the Fund is aware of similar sales to third parties at materially different prices or in other circumstances where cost may not approximate fair value (which could include situations in which there are no sales to third parties).

Valuation of Investments in Future Contracts

These instruments include Open Trade Equity Positions (Futures Contracts and Currency Forwards) that are actively traded on public markets with quoted pricing for corroboration. Futures Contracts and Currency Forwards are reported at fair value using Level 1 inputs. Investments in Future Contracts further include Open Trade Equity that are quoted prices for identical or similar assets that are traded on active markets.

Aspen Diversified Fund LLC

Notes to Financial Statements

NOTE A – DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – Continued

Investment Income: Investment income includes realized and unrealized gains and losses from the Fund’s investments in investment funds and futures contracts and interest income. Income earned and expenses incurred by the investment funds are passed through to the Fund based on its percentage ownership in each respective fund. Investment transactions are recorded on the trade date.

Income Taxes: No provision for income taxes has been made in the accompanying financial statements as all items of the Fund’s income, loss, deduction, and credit are passed through to, and taken into account by, the Fund’s members on their own income tax returns. The primary difference between financial statement income and taxable income relates to certain gains and losses that are not immediately realized for income tax purposes. There were no material differences between the cost basis of the Fund’s assets and liabilities for financial and income tax reporting purposes.

The Fund has reviewed all open tax years and major jurisdictions and concluded there is no tax liability resulting from unrecognized tax benefits relating to uncertain income tax positions taken or expected to be taken on the tax return for the years ended December 31, 2012, 2011, and 2010. The Fund is also not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly change in the next twelve months.

Cash and Cash Equivalents: For purposes of reporting cash flows, the Fund considers demand deposits and all unrestricted, highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less, which can be readily converted to cash on demand, without penalty, to be cash equivalents.  Beginning December 31, 2010 through December 31, 2012 all non-interest bearing demand deposits are fully insured by the FDIC.  The Fund has established managed accounts to be traded by certain foreign exchange and commodity trading advisors on behalf of the Fund.  Cash in managed accounts is held by Newedge USA, LLC and R. J. O’Brien to secure trading positions in currency and commodity futures.  These funds are privately insured to the Securities Investor Protection Corporation (“SIPC”) limits as such limits may be amended from time to time.

Uninsured, uncollateralized balance	$	18,894,259		$	55,829,538

Estimates: 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 that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Investment Valuations: In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the USA (“GAAP”), fair value is defined as the price that the Fund would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. GAAP also establishes a framework for measuring fair value, and a three-level hierarchy for fair value measurements based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability. Inputs may be observable or unobservable and refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Observable inputs reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on market data obtained from sources independent of the Fund. Unobservable inputs reflect the Fund’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available under the circumstances. Each investment is assigned a level based upon the observability of the inputs which are significant to the overall valuation.

F-8

Aspen Diversified Fund LLC

Notes to Financial Statements

NOTE A – DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES – Continued

The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized below.

Level 1 Inputs – Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Fund has the ability to access.

Level 2 Inputs – Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly.  These inputs may include quoted prices for the identical instrument on an inactive market, prices for similar instruments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, yield curves, default rates and similar data.

Level 3 Inputs – Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability, to the extent relevant observable inputs are not available, representing the Fund’s own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in valuing the asset or liability, and would be based on the best information available.

The inputs used to measure fair value may fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy. In such cases, for disclosure purposes, the level in the fair value hierarchy within which the fair value measurement falls in its entirety, is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety.  All assets and liabilities are measured at fair value on a recurring basis by level within the fair value hierarchy as reported on the statements of assets and liabilities.

NOTE B – INVESTMENTS IN INVESTMENT FUNDS & FUTURES CONTRACTS

At December 31, 2012 and during the year then ended, the Fund’s investments and net realized and unrealized gains (losses) on investment funds and futures contracts consisted of the following:

NOTE F – INVESTMENTS IN DERIVATIVES CONTRACTS – Continued

Forward Contracts:

Forward currency and commodities transactions are contracts for delayed delivery of specific currencies and commodities in which the seller agrees to make delivery at a specified date. The Fund enters into these contracts to hedge itself against foreign currency exchange rate risk for its foreign currency dominated assets and liabilities. Risks associated with foreign currency and commodities contracts include the inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts as well as movements in fair value and exchange rates. Changes in unrealized appreciation or depreciation of the investments are recognized as unrealized gains and losses in the statement of operations.

Futures Contracts:

A futures contract represents a commitment for the future purchase or sale of an asset at a specified price on a specified date. The fund may use futures contracts to gain exposure to, or hedge against, changes in the value of equities and commodities, interest rates or foreign currencies.

Futures contracts provide reduced counterparty risk to the Fund since futures are exchange-traded. The purchase and sale of futures contracts requires margin deposits with a Futures Commission Merchant (“FCM”). Payments are made or received by the Fund each day, depending on the fluctuations in the contract value, and are recorded as unrealized gains or losses in the statement of operations.

The volume of the Fund’s derivative activities based on their notional amounts and number of contracts as of December 31, 2012 and 2011 are as follows:

December 31, 2012	Long Exposure				Short Exposure
Primary underlying risk	Notional Amounts		Number of Contracts		Notional Amounts		Number of Contracts
