PONTA NEGRA GROUP, LLC

Dear Fellow Investors:

The global economic stress as measured by FX short-term volatility, sovereign and

corporate CDS spreads and VIXX indices persisted in the month of February, as the
barrage of negative economic indicators remained unabated. Continued stress on the
financial sector that peaked with the record quarterly loss of AIG and the collapse of
Citigroup equity valuations has left policymakers and market participants perplexed as
to how the current turmoil will be resolved. The month of February marked one of the
most complex environments in foreign exchange that we have experienced since the
inception of the Fund, as the ambiguity in governmental commentary on interest rate
decisions and the measures being considered to aid the distressed economic climate
caused abnormal gyrations in the G10 arena. We remain committed to our long DXY bias
but as was mentioned in last month’s commentary, we have preferred to express this
through a short EUR / USD bias and selectively partially imperfectly hedge it with a lower
weighted long GBP / USD trade. We believe that the eurozone will continue to be
weighed down by the massive 1.3 tn. EUR of outstanding debt of Eastern Europe that will
be a challenge to refinance at reasonable yields in the current climate. The reversal of
our short USD / JPY hedge was well-timed, as the announcement of the reissuance of
U.S. Treasury samurai bonds to the Japanese marketplace has accelerated the upside
momentum in USD / JPY. We have decreased the size of our short EM bias as commodity
prices appear to have temporarily stabilized and we prefer to selectively express views
through cross-regional plays such as short EMEA / LatAm with underweights in HUF, PLN
and overweights in CLP, BRL. We will continue to utilize low quantities of leverage and
fewer numbers of intraday positions, as we anticipate the persistence of a high volatility
marketplace into the end of Q1 2009.

Sincerely,

Francesco Rusciano

Ponta Negra Fund I, LLC and Ponta Negra Offshore Fund I, Ltd (the “Funds”) primary investment objective is
Summary to realize absolute returns of 15-20% per annum by exploiting market inefficiencies across multiple
economic cycles. The Funds employ a 100% discretionary and active trading approach within a systematic
and rule based framework to the currency markets in G10 and emerging market economies. The portfolios
are actively managed and generate returns in two ways: capitalizing on longer-term core themes and
exploiting shorter-term inefficiencies. Correlation and mean reversion models are utilized on both longer-
term core themes and shorter-term trades along with proprietary ratios that measure liquidity and volatility
in each currency pair that we trade. These ratios allow us to determine which currency pairs are most
attractive to trade within any given day. The Funds hold overnight positions less than 20% of trading days.
