General: Smith Barney AAA Energy Fund L.P. (the "Partnership") is a limited partnership organized on January 5, 1998 under the partnership laws of the State of New York to engage directly or indirectly in the speculative trading of a diversified portfolio of commodity options and commodity futures contracts on United States exchanges and certain foreign exchanges. The Partnership may trade commodity futures and options contracts of any kind but intends initially to trade solely energy and energy related products. In addition, the Partnership may enter into swap contracts on energy related products. The commodity interests that are traded by the Partnership are volatile and involve a high degree of market risk. The Partnership commenced trading on March 16, 1998. From March 16, 1998 to August 31, 2001, the Partnership engaged directly in the speculative trading of a diversified portfolio of commodity interests. Effective September 1, 2001, the Partnership transferred substantially all of its assets (including unrealized appreciation of $(7,323,329) in exchange for 128,539.1485 Units and a fair value of $128,539,149 as a tax-free transfer to the SB AAA Master Fund LLC, a New York limited liability company (the "Master"). The Master was formed in order to permit accounts managed now or in the future by AAA Capital Management LLC (the "Advisor") using the Energy Program (Futures and Swaps), the Advisor's proprietary trading program, to invest together in one trading vehicle. Smith Barney Futures Management LLC (the "General Partner") is the general partner of the Partnership and the managing member of the Master. The Partnership is a non-managing member of the Master and the Advisor is a special limited partner. Expenses to investors as a result of investment in the Master are approximately the same and redemption rights are not affected. As of June 30, 2002 , the Partnership owns approximately 92.2% of the Master. It is the Partnership's intention to continue to invest substantially all of its assets in the Master. The performance of the Partnership is directly affected by the performance of the Master. The financial statements of the Master are included in this report and should be read together with the Partnership's financial statements. 5 SMITH BARNEY AAA ENERGY FUND L.P. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS June 30, 2002 (Unaudited) (Continued) Prior to September 1, 2001, the Partnership's commodity broker was Salomon Smith Barney Inc. ("SSB"). The Master's commodity broker is SSB. SSB is an affiliate of the General Partner. The General Partner is wholly owned by Salomon Smith Barney Holdings Inc. ("SSBHI"), which is the sole owner of SSB. SSBHI is a wholly owned subsidiary of Citigroup Inc. The accompanying financial statements are unaudited but, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the Partnership's financial condition at June 30, 2002 and December 31, 2001 and the results of its operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001. These financial statements present the results of interim periods and do not include all disclosures normally provided in annual financial statements. You should read these financial statements together with the financial statements and notes included in the Partnership's annual report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the year ended December 31, 2001. Due to the nature of commodity trading, the results of operations for the interim periods presented should not be considered indicative of the results that may be expected for the entire year. 6 SMITH BARNEY AAA ENERGY FUND L.P.

12 SMITH BARNEY AAA ENERGY FUND L.P. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS June 30, 2002 (Unaudited) (Continued) 3. Trading Activities: The Partnership was formed for the purpose of trading contracts in a variety of commodity interests, including derivative financial instruments and derivative commodity instruments. The Partnership invests the majority of its assets through a "master fund/feeder fund" structure. The results of the Partnership's investment in the Master are shown in the Statement of Income and Expenses and Partners' Capital and are discussed herein Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. The respective Customer Agreement between the Partnership and SSB and the Master and SSB give the Partnership and the Master, respectively, the legal right to net unrealized gains and losses. All of the commodity interests owned by the Master are held for trading purposes. The average fair value during the six months ended June 30, 2002 and the period from September 1, 2001 (commencement of operations) to December 31, 2001, respectively, based on a monthly calculation, were $11,508,292 and $(927,070), respectively. The fair value of these commodity interests, including options and swaps thereon, if applicable, at June 30,2002 and December 31, 2001 was $19,508,778 and $(3,887,556), respectively. Fair values for exchange traded commodity futures and options are based on quoted market prices for those futures and options. Fair values for all other financial instruments for which market quotations are not readily available are based on calculations approved by the General Partner. 4. Financial Instrument Risk: The Partnership, through its investment in the Master, is party to financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk, including derivative financial instruments and derivative commodity instruments, in the normal course of its business. These financial instruments may include forwards, futures, options and swaps, whose values are based upon an underlying asset, index, or reference rate, and generally represent future commitments to exchange currencies or cash flows, to purchase or sell other financial instruments at specific terms at specified future dates, or, in the case of derivative commodity instruments to have a reasonable possibility to be settled in cash, 13 SMITH BARNEY AAA ENERGY FUND L.P. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS June 30, 2002 (Unaudited) (Continued) through physical delivery or with another financial instrument. These instruments may be traded on an exchange or over-the-counter ("OTC"). Exchange traded instruments are standardized and include futures and certain option contracts. OTC contracts are negotiated between contracting parties and include forwards and certain options. Each of these instruments is subject to various risks similar to those related to the underlying financial instruments including market and credit risk. In general, the risks associated with OTC contracts are greater than those associated with exchange traded instruments because of the greater risk of default by the counterparty to an OTC contract. Market risk is the potential for changes in the value of the financial instruments traded by the Master due to market changes, including interest and foreign exchange rate movements and fluctuations in commodity or security prices. Market risk is directly impacted by the volatility and liquidity in the markets in which the related underlying assets are traded. Credit risk is the possibility that a loss may occur due to the failure of a counterparty to perform according to the terms of a contract. Credit risk with respect to exchange traded instruments is reduced to the extent that an exchange or clearing organization acts as a counterparty to the transactions. The Master's risk of loss in the event of counterparty default is typically limited to the amounts recognized as unrealized appreciation in the statement of financial condition and not represented by the contract or notional amounts of the instruments. The Partnership through its investment in the Master has concentration risk because the sole counterparty or broker with respect to the Master's assets is SSB. The General Partner monitors and controls the Master's risk exposure on a daily basis through financial, credit and risk management monitoring systems and accordingly believes that it has effective procedures for evaluating and limiting the credit and market risks to which the Master is subject. These monitoring systems allow the General Partner to statistically analyze actual trading results with risk adjusted performance indicators and correlation statistics. In addition, on-line monitoring systems provide account analysis of futures, forwards and options positions by sector, margin requirements, gain and loss transactions and collateral positions. 14 SMITH BARNEY AAA ENERGY FUND L.P. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS June 30, 2002 (Unaudited) (Continued) The notional or contractual amounts of these instruments, while not recorded in the financial statements, reflect the extent of the Master's involvement in these instruments. The majority of these instruments mature within one year of June 30, 2002. However, due to the nature of the Master's business, these instruments may not be held to maturity. 15 Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. Liquidity and Capital Resources The Partnership does not engage in the sale of goods or services. Its only assets are its investment in the Master cash and interest receivable. The Master does not engage in the sale of goods or services. Because of the low margin deposits normally required in commodity futures trading, relatively small price movements may result in substantial losses to the Partnership. While substantial losses could lead to a decrease in liquidity, no such losses occurred in the second quarter of 2002. The Partnership's capital consists of the capital contributions of the partners as increased or decreased by its investment in the Master, expenses, interest income, redemptions of Units and distributions of profits, if any. For the six months ended June 30, 2002, Partnership capital increased 27.0% from $134,887,821 to $171,356,734. This increase was attributable to net income from operations of $34,471,885 after the allocation to the special limited partner of $8,340,834, coupled with additional sales of 3,071.2548 Units totaling $5,862,000, which was partially offset by the redemption of 1,283.8563 Units resulting in an outflow of $3,864,971. Future redemptions can impact the amount of funds available for investment in the Master in subsequent periods. The Master's capital consists of the capital contributions of the members as increased or decreased by gains or losses on commodity futures trading, expenses, interest income, redemptions of Units and distributions of profits, if any. For the six months ended June 30, 2002, the Master's capital increased 30.7% from $152,214,723 to $198,916,629. This increase was attributable to net income from operations of $48,047,175, coupled with additions of 9,924.5628 Units totaling $11,162,417, which was partially offset by the redemption of 11,055.6501 Units totaling $12,507,686. Future redemptions can impact the amount of funds available for investments in commodity contract positions in subsequent periods. Critical Accounting Policies The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities in the financial statements and accompanying notes. 16 All commodity interests (including derivative financial instruments and derivative commodity instruments) are used for trading purposes. The commodity interests are recorded on trade date and open contracts are recorded in the statement of financial condition at fair value on the last business day of the period, which represents market value for those commodity interests for which market quotations are readily available. Investments in commodity interests denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the exchange rates prevailing on the last business day of the period. Realized gains (losses) and changes in unrealized values on commodity interests and foreign currencies are recognized in the period in which the contract is closed or the changes occur and are included in net gains (losses) on trading of commodity interests. Foreign currency contracts are those contracts where the Partnership agrees to receive or deliver a fixed quantity of foreign currency for an agreed-upon price on an agreed future date. Foreign currency contracts are valued daily, and the Partnership's net equity therein, representing unrealized gain or loss on the contracts as measured by the difference between the forward foreign exchange rates at the dates of entry into the contracts and the forward rates at the reporting dates, is included in the statement of financial condition. Realized gains(losses) and changes in unrealized values on foreign currency contracts are recognized in the period in which the contract is closed or the changes occur and are included in the statement of income and expenses and partners' capital. Results of Operations During the Partnership's second quarter of 2002, the net asset value per unit increased 9.8% from $2,152.40 to $2,364.39 as compared to an increase of 5.5% in the second quarter of 2001. The Partnership experienced a net trading gain in the second quarter of 2002 of $19,712,863. Gains were primarily attributable to the Master's trading of commodity futures in NYMEX Natural Gas, NYMEX Crude Oil, NYMEX Unleaded Gas and NYMEX Heating Oil and were partially offset by losses in energy swaps, IPE Brent Crude Oil and IPE Gas Oil. The Partnership experienced a net trading gain in the second quarter of 2001 of $6,949,033. Gains were primarily attributable to the trading of NYMEX Natural Gas, NYMEX Crude Oil, NYMEX Heating Oil and energy swaps and were partially offset by losses in IPE Gas Oil and NYMEX Unleaded Gas. Commodity futures markets are highly volatile. The potential for broad and rapid price fluctuations increases the risks involved in commodity trading, but also increases the possibility of profit. The profitability of the Partnership (and Master) depends on the existence of major price trends and the ability of 17 the Advisor to correctly identify those price trends. Price trends are influenced by, among other things, changing supply and demand relationships, weather, governmental, agricultural, commercial and trade programs and policies, national and international political and economic events and changes in interest rates. To the extent that market trends exist and the Advisor is able to identify them, the Partnership (and Master) expect to increase capital through operations. Interest income on 80% of the Partnership's average daily equity allocated to it by the Master was earned at a 30-day U.S. Treasury bill rate determined weekly by SSB based on the average non-competitive yield on 3-month U.S. Treasury bills maturing in 30 days. Salomon Smith Barney may continue to maintain the Partnership assets in cash and/or to place all of the Fund assets in 90-day Treasury bills and pay the Partnership 80% of the interest earned on the Treasury bills purchased. Salomon Smith Barney will retain 20% of any interest earned on Treasury bills. Interest income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 decreased by $154,031 and $222,123, respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2001. The decrease in interest income is primarily due to a decrease in interest rates during the period ended June 30, 2002. Brokerage commissions are allocated by the Master and are based on the number of trades executed by the Advisor. Commissions and fees allocated to the Partnership for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 increased by $2,659,828 and $5,293,351, respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2001. Management fees are calculated as a percentage of the Partnership's net asset value as of the end of each month and are affected by trading performance and redemptions. Management fees for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 increased by $430,105 and $746,383, respectively, as compared to the corresponding periods in 2001. Special limited partner allocations are based on the new trading profits generated by the Advisor at the end of the year, as defined in the advisory agreements between the Partnership, the General Partner and the Advisor. Trading performance for the three and six months ended June 30, 2002 resulted in an accrual of Special Limited Partner allocations of $3,755,152 and $8,340,834, respectively. Trading performance for the three and six months ended June 30, 2001 resulted in an accrual of Special Limited Partner allocations of $972,205 and $3,424,162, respectively. 18 20 Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures of Market Risk All of the Partnership's assets are subject to the risk of trading loss through its investment in the Master. The Master is a speculative commodity pool. The market sensitive instruments held by it are acquired for speculative trading purposes, and all or substantially all of the Master'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 Master's main line of business. Market movements result in frequent changes in the fair value of the Master's open positions and, consequently, in its earnings and cash flow. The Master'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 value of financial instruments and contracts, the diversification effects of the Master's open positions and the liquidity of the markets in which it trades. The Master rapidly acquires and liquidates both long and short positions in a range of different markets. Consequently, it is not possible to predict how a particular future market scenario will affect performance, and the Master's past performance is not necessarily indicative of its future results. Value at Risk is a measure of the maximum amount which the Master could reasonably be expected to lose in a given market sector. However, the inherent uncertainty of the Master's speculative trading and the recurrence in the markets traded by the Master of market movements far exceeding expectations could result in actual trading or non-trading losses far beyond the indicated Value at Risk or the Master'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 in this section should not be considered to constitute any assurance or representation that the Master's losses in any market sector will be limited to Value at Risk or by the Master's attempts to manage its market risk. Exchange maintenance margin requirements have been used by the Master as the measure of its Value at Risk. Maintenance margin requirements are set by exchanges to equal or exceed the maximum losses reasonably expected to be incurred in the fair value of any given contract in 95%-99% of any one-day intervals. Maintenance margin has been used rather than the more generally available initial margin, because initial margin includes a credit risk component, which is not relevant to Value at Risk. 19 The following table indicates the trading Value at Risk associated with the Master's open positions by market category as of June 30, 2002 . All open position trading risk exposures of the Master have been included in calculating the figures set forth below. As of June 30, 2002 , the Master's total capitalization was $198,916,629. There has been no material change in the trading Value at Risk information previously disclosed in the Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001. June 30, 2002 (Unaudited)
