General These financial statements have been prepared without audit. In the opinion of Prudential Securities Futures Management Inc. (the 'Managing Owner'), the financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) necessary to state fairly the financial position of World Monitor Trust II--Series E ('Series E') as of September 28, 2001 and the results of its operations for the periods from January 1, 2001 to September 28, 2001 ('Year To Date 2001'), April 6, 2000 (commencement of operations) to September 29, 2000 ('Year To Date 2000'), June 30, 2001 to September 28, 2001 ('Third Quarter 2001') and July 1, 2000 to September 29, 2000 ('Third Quarter 2000'). However, the operating results for the interim periods may not be indicative of the results expected for a full year. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been omitted. It is suggested that these financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in Series E's annual report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the year ended December 31, 2000. B. Related Parties The Managing Owner of Series E is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Prudential Securities Incorporated ('PSI'), which, in turn, is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Prudential Securities Group Inc. Series E pays the Managing Owner or its affiliates for services they perform for Series E which include but are not limited to: brokerage services; accounting and financial management; registrar, transfer and assignment functions; investor communications; printing and other administrative services. However, the amount of general and administrative expenses incurred by Series E is limited to 1.5% of its net asset value during the year (with a maximum of 0.5% attributable to other than legal and audit expenses). Because general and administrative expenses exceeded this limit, all or a portion of the expenses related to services the Managing Owner performed for Series E for Year To Date 2001, Year To Date 2000, Third Quarter 2001 and Third Quarter 2000 have been borne by the Managing Owner and its affiliates. Additionally, PSI or its affiliates paid the costs of organizing Series E and continue to pay the costs of offering its limited interests as well as any third party general and administrative expenses which exceed the limit discussed above. The costs incurred by Series E for services performed by the Managing Owner and its affiliates for Series E were: <Table> <Caption> Year To Date Year To Date Third Quarter Third Quarter 2001 2000 2001 2000 ------------- ------------- -------------- -------------- Commissions $ 302,940 $ 147,760 $107,304 $ 75,505 General and administrative 13,406 -- 6,833 -- ------------- ------------- -------------- -------------- $ 316,346 $ 147,760 $114,137 $ 75,505 ------------- ------------- -------------- -------------- ------------- ------------- -------------- -------------- </Table> There are no expenses payable to the Managing Owner and its affiliates as of September 28, 2001 and December 31, 2000. All of the proceeds of the offering of Series E are received in the name of Series E and deposited in trading or cash accounts at PSI, Series E's commodity broker. Series E's assets are maintained with PSI or, for margin purposes, with the various exchanges on which Series E is permitted to trade. Series E receives interest income on 100% of its average daily equity maintained in cash in its accounts with PSI during each month at the 13-week Treasury bill discount rate. This rate is determined weekly by PSI and represents the rate awarded to all bidders during each week's auction of 13-week Treasury bills. Series E, acting through its trading advisor, may execute over-the-counter, spot, forward and/or option foreign exchange transactions with PSI. PSI then engages in back-to-back trading with an affiliate, Prudential-Bache Global Markets Inc. ('PBGM'). PBGM attempts to earn a profit on such transactions. 4 <Page> PBGM keeps its prices on foreign currency competitive with other interbank currency trading desks. All over-the-counter currency transactions are conducted between PSI and Series E pursuant to a line of credit. PSI may require that collateral be posted against the marked-to-market positions of Series E. As of September 28, 2001, a non-U.S. affiliate of the Managing Owner owns 54.284 limited interests of Series E. C. Derivative Instruments and Associated Risks Series E is exposed to various types of risk associated with the derivative instruments and related markets in which it invests. These risks include, but are not limited to, risk of loss from fluctuations in the value of derivative instruments held (market risk) and the inability of counterparties to perform under the terms of Series E's investment activities (credit risk). Market risk Trading in futures and forward (including foreign exchange) contracts involves entering into contractual commitments to purchase or sell a particular commodity at a specified date and price. The gross or face amount of the contracts, which is typically many times that of Series E's net assets being traded, significantly exceeds Series E's future cash requirements since Series E intends to close out its open positions prior to settlement. As a result, Series E is generally subject only to the risk of loss arising from the change in the value of the contracts. As such, Series E considers the 'fair value' of its derivative instruments to be the net unrealized gain or loss on the contracts. The market risk associated with Series E's commitments to purchase commodities is limited to the gross or face amount of the contracts held. However, when Series E enters into a contractual commitment to sell commodities, it must make delivery of the underlying commodity at the contract price and then repurchase the contract at prevailing market prices. Since the repurchase price to which a commodity can rise is unlimited, entering into commitments to sell commodities exposes Series E to unlimited risk. Market risk is influenced by a wide variety of factors including government programs and policies, political and economic events, the level and volatility of interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, the diversification effects among the derivative instruments Series E holds and the liquidity and inherent volatility of the markets in which Series E trades. Credit risk When entering into futures or forward contracts, Series E is exposed to credit risk that the counterparty to the contract will not meet its obligations. The counterparty for futures contracts traded on United States and most foreign futures exchanges is the clearinghouse associated with such exchanges. In general, clearinghouses are backed by their corporate members who are required to share any financial burden resulting from the nonperformance by one of their members and, as such, should significantly reduce this credit risk. In cases where the clearinghouse is not backed by the clearing members (i.e., some foreign exchanges), it is normally backed by a consortium of banks or other financial institutions. On the other hand, the sole counterparty to Series E's forward transactions is PSI, Series E's commodity broker. Series E has entered into a master netting agreement with PSI and, as a result, presents unrealized gains and losses on open forward positions as a net amount in the statements of financial condition. The amount at risk associated with counterparty nonperformance of all of Series E's contracts is the net unrealized gain included in the statements of financial condition. There can be no assurance that any counterparty, clearing member or clearinghouse will meet its obligations to Series E. The Managing Owner attempts to minimize both credit and market risks by requiring Series E and its trading advisor to abide by various trading limitations and policies. The Managing Owner monitors compliance with these trading limitations and policies which include, but are not limited to, executing and clearing all trades with creditworthy counterparties; limiting the amount of margin or premium required for any one commodity or all commodities combined; and generally limiting transactions to contracts which are traded in sufficient volume to permit the taking and liquidating of positions. Additionally, pursuant to the advisory agreement among Series E, the Managing Owner and the trading advisor, Series E shall automatically terminate the trading advisor if the net asset value allocated to the trading advisor declines by 40% from the value at the beginning of any year or since the commencement of trading activities. Furthermore, the First Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust and Trust Agreement of the Trust provides that Series E will liquidate its positions, and eventually dissolve, if Series E experiences a decline in 5 <Page> net asset value of 50% from the value at the beginning of any year or since the commencement of trading activities. In each case, the decline in net asset value is after giving effect for distributions, contributions and redemptions. The Managing Owner may impose additional restrictions (through modifications of trading limitations and policies) upon the trading activities of the trading advisor as it, in good faith, deems to be in the best interests of Series E. PSI, when acting as Series E's futures commission merchant in accepting orders for the purchase or sale of domestic futures contracts, is required by Commodity Futures Trading Commission ('CFTC') regulations to separately account for and segregate as belonging to Series E all assets of Series E relating to domestic futures trading (subject to the opt out provisions discussed below) and is not allowed to commingle such assets with other assets of PSI. At September 28, 2001, such segregated assets totalled $3,115,990. Part 30.7 of the CFTC regulations also requires PSI to secure assets of Series E related to foreign futures trading which totalled $5,318,791 at September 28, 2001. There are no segregation requirements for assets related to forward trading. The CFTC promulgated rules that allow futures commission merchants to permit certain customers, including Series E, to opt out of segregation with regard to trading on certain exchanges, but PSI has not done so to date. If Series E were to opt out, its funds could be held in a broader and riskier range of investments. As of September 28, 2001, Series E's open futures and forward contracts generally mature within one year, although certain interest rate futures contracts have maturities as distant as March 2003. At September 28, 2001 and December 31, 2000, the fair value of futures and forward contracts was: <Table> <Caption> September 28, 2001 December 31, 2000 -------------------------- -------------------------- Assets Liabilities Assets Liabilities ---------- ----------- ---------- ----------- Futures Contracts: Domestic exchanges Interest rates $ 390,740 $ -- $ 275,953 $ -- Currencies 109,022 61,439 260,258 28,675 Commodities 137,291 88,866 132,815 37,116 Foreign exchanges Interest rates 445,117 20,395 309,325 -- Stock indices 33,412 10,339 68,667 5,300 Commodities 136,057 8,300 20,396 37,466 Forward Contracts: Currencies 7,781 -- 33,172 36,756 ---------- ----------- ---------- ----------- $1,259,420 $ 189,339 $1,100,586 $ 145,313 ---------- ----------- ---------- ----------- ---------- ----------- ---------- ----------- </Table> D.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Liquidity and Capital Resources Series E commenced operations on April 6, 2000 with gross proceeds of $5,157,459 allocated to commodities trading. Additional contributions raised through the continuous offering for the period from April 6, 2000 (commencement of operations) to September 28, 2001 resulted in additional proceeds to Series E of $3,667,585. Additional limited interests of Series E will continue to be offered on a weekly basis at the net asset value per Interest until the subscription maximum is sold. Limited interests in Series E may be redeemed on a weekly basis, but are subject to a redemption fee if transacted within one year of the effective date of purchase. Redemptions of limited interests for Year To Date 2001, Third Quarter 2001 and for the period from April 6, 2000 (commencement of operations) to September 28, 2001 totalled $1,833,624, $583,370 and $2,636,035, respectively. Since inception, the only redemptions of general interests occurred during Second Quarter 2001 totalling $19,576. Additionally, Interests owned in any series of World Monitor Trust II (Series D, E or F) may be exchanged, without any charge, for Interests of one or more other series of World Monitor Trust II on a weekly basis for as long as Interests in those series are being offered to the public. Future contributions, redemptions and exchanges will impact the amount of funds available for investment in commodity contracts in subsequent periods. At September 28, 2001, 100% of Series E's net assets were allocated to commodities trading. A significant portion of the net assets is held in cash which is used as margin for trading in commodities. Inasmuch as the sole business of Series E is to trade in commodities, Series E continues to own such liquid assets to be used as margin. PSI credits Series E with interest income on 100% of its average daily equity maintained in cash in its accounts with PSI during each month at the 13-week Treasury bill discount rate. This rate is determined weekly by PSI and represents the rate awarded to all bidders during each week's auction of 13-week Treasury bills. The commodities contracts are subject to periods of illiquidity because of market conditions, regulatory considerations and other reasons. For example, commodity exchanges limit fluctuations in commodity futures contract prices during a single day by regulations referred to as 'daily limits.' During a single day, no trades may be executed at prices beyond the daily limit. Once the price of a futures contract for a particular commodity has increased or decreased by an amount equal to the daily limit, positions in the commodity can neither be taken nor liquidated unless traders are willing to effect trades at or within the limit. Commodity futures prices have occasionally moved the daily limit for several consecutive days with little or no trading. Such market conditions could prevent Series E from promptly liquidating its commodity futures positions. Since Series E's business is to trade futures and forward contracts, its capital is at risk due to changes in the value of these contracts (market risk) or the inability of counterparties to perform under the terms of the contracts (credit risk). Series E's exposure to market risk is influenced by a number of factors including the volatility of interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates, the liquidity of the markets in which the contracts are traded and the relationships among the contracts held. The inherent uncertainty of Series E's speculative trading as well as the development of drastic market occurrences could result in monthly losses considerably beyond Series E's experience to date and could ultimately lead to a loss of all or substantially all of investors' capital. The Managing Owner attempts to minimize these risks by requiring Series E and its trading advisor to abide by various trading limitations and policies which include limiting margin amounts, trading only in liquid markets and permitting the use of stop loss provisions. See Note C to the financial statements for a further discussion of the credit and market risks associated with Series E's futures and forward contracts. Series E does not have, nor does it expect to have, any capital assets. Results of Operations After the attacks of September 11th, the Managing Owner contacted Series E's trading advisor who reported that there was no material disruption to its ability to follow its trading systems and to function 7 <Page> normally. Additionally, there was no material disruption to the Managing Owner's ability to maintain operations and perform its functions as a result of the tragic events. The net asset value per Interest as of September 28, 2001 was $137.82, an increase of 14.51% from the December 31, 2000 net asset value per Interest of $120.36 and an increase of 16.39% from the June 29, 2001 net asset value per Interest of $118.41. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results. Series E's gross trading gains (losses) were approximately $1,594,000 and $1,382,000 during Year To Date 2001 and Third Quarter 2001, respectively, compared to $(296,000) and $211,000 for Year To Date 2000 and Third Quarter 2000, respectively. Due to the nature of Series E's trading activities, a period to period comparison of its trading results is not meaningful. However, a detailed discussion of Series E's Third Quarter 2001 trading results is presented below. Quarterly Market Overview The pace of global economic activity remained slow throughout the third quarter of 2001. Weakened business expenditure and efforts to reduce inventory resulted in decreased manufacturing activity. Labor demand declined in most sectors and the unemployment rate edged up to 4.9% in August. After a period of strength, the U.S. dollar fell against most major foreign currencies, particularly the Japanese yen, the euro and the Swiss franc. Global equity markets fell throughout most of the quarter while short- and long-term interest rates declined pushing bond prices higher. Consumer spending weakened slightly, but generally remained strong through most of the quarter, supported in part by low mortgage rates, tax rebates, declining energy prices and widespread discounting of retail prices. Consumer confidence remained at moderately favorable levels during the first two months of the quarter and helped moderate economic weakness. Growth in many foreign industrial economies, including Japan and much of Europe, weakened during the third quarter as well. Financial conditions deteriorated markedly in Argentina and many other developing countries. The terrorist attacks of September 11th further weakened the sluggish U.S. and global economies. Equity markets throughout the world plunged in the week following the attacks. The Dow Jones industrial average suffered its worst percentage loss since the Great Depression due to uncertainty about how the economy would perform as a result of these attacks and other threats of terrorism. U.S. equity indices recovered somewhat at the end of September as interest rate cuts by the U.S. Federal Reserve and fiscal stimuli by Congress combined to help fuel an economic rebound. Global equity markets followed suit rebounding from earlier lows as well. The U.S. dollar's downward trend against many foreign currencies accelerated after September 11th. As a result of the attacks, many investors switched exposure from the U.S. dollar to other currencies such as the Swiss franc, British pound and euro, all of which rose against the U.S. dollar. U.S. and European interest rate instruments rose throughout most of the quarter as data indicated persistent weakness in the U.S. economy. The U.S. Federal Reserve lowered interest rates by 25 basis points in August in an effort to stimulate the economy. Interest rate instruments continued to rally in the wake of September 11th as the U.S. Federal Reserve moved to inject liquidity into the economy, cutting interest rates 50 basis points on September 17th to 3%. This move was soon followed by the Central Bank of Canada, the European Central Bank and the Swiss National Central Bank who also lowered their rates 0.50%. Energy prices began the quarter low, but peaked sharply immediately after the September 11th attacks amid worries of a potential interruption in supplies. Energy prices soon reversed course as concerns of decreased demand caused by a global economic recession outweighed fears of scarcity. Two weeks after the attacks, oil prices plunged more than 12% to a 22-month low of $23 a barrel. OPEC leaders announced that with prices within their $22 to $28 a barrel target, they see no need to alter output and assured that there will be no disruption in supplies. Quarterly Performance of Series E The following is a summary of performance for the major sectors in which Series E traded: Interest rates (+): Long U.S., European and Australian bond positions resulted in gains throughout the quarter as many central banks lowered interest rates in an effort to boost weakening economies. 8 <Page> Stock indices (+): The attacks on September 11th further weakened slowing global economies and declining equity markets. Short positions in the Tokyo TOPIX, Nikkei Dow and DAX indices resulted in gains for Series E. Metals (+): Short copper and aluminum positions resulted in gains as fears of a global economic recession and decreasing industrial production lowered prices of industrial commodities. Currencies (-): Long Japanese yen and long Japanese yen/British pound cross-rate positions resulted in losses as the Bank of Japan intervened to stop the recent appreciation of the yen in response to concerns regarding Japanese exports. Energies (-): Energy prices fell from their September 11th peak on concerns that demand will wane due to weakening global economies. Long crude oil and unleaded gas positions resulted in losses. Series E commenced trading operations on April 6, 2000, and as such, a comparison of Year To Date 2001 versus Year To Date 2000 operating results is not meaningful. Additionally, increases in commissions and other transaction fees and management fees during Third Quarter 2001 as compared to Third Quarter 2000 are primarily due to the effect of favorable trading performance during the fourth quarter of 2000 and contributions during 2001 on Series E's net asset values, offset, in part, by redemptions as further discussed below. Interest income is earned on the average daily equity maintained in cash with PSI at the 13-week Treasury bill discount rate and, therefore, varies weekly according to interest rates, trading performance, contributions and redemptions. Interest income was $197,000 and $148,000 for Year To Date 2001 and Year To Date 2000, respectively. Interest income decreased by $20,000 during Third Quarter 2001 as compared to Third Quarter 2000. The decrease, which was offset, in part, by higher overall net asset levels in Third Quarter 2001 versus Third Quarter 2000 as discussed above, was primarily due to lower overall interest rates during 2001 versus 2000. Commissions are calculated on Series E's net asset value at the end of each week and therefore, vary according to weekly trading performance, contributions and redemptions. Other transaction fees consist of National Futures Association, exchange and clearing fees as well as floor brokerage costs and give-up charges, which are based on the number of trades the trading advisor executes, as well as which exchange, clearing firm or bank on, or through, which the contract is traded. Commissions and other transaction fees for Year To Date 2001 and Year To Date 2000 were $331,000 and $160,000, respectively. Commissions and other transaction fees increased by $46,000 during Third Quarter 2001 as compared to Third Quarter 2000 primarily due to the increase in average net asset levels as discussed above. All trading decisions for Series E are made by Graham Capital Management, L.P. (the 'Trading Advisor'). Management fees are calculated on Series E's net asset value at the end of each week and therefore, are affected by weekly trading performance, contributions and redemptions. Management fees for Year To Date 2001 and Year To Date 2000 were $101,000 and $49,000, respectively. Management fees increased by $11,000 during Third Quarter 2001 as compared to Third Quarter 2000 due to the increase in average net asset levels as discussed above. Incentive fees are based on the 'New High Net Trading Profits' generated by the Trading Advisor, as defined in the advisory agreement among the Trust, the Managing Owner and the Trading Advisor. Incentive fees generated for Year To Date 2001 and Third Quarter 2001 were $290,000 and $121,000, respectively. No incentive fee was incurred during Year To Date 2000. General and administrative expenses were $48,000 and $38,000 for Year To Date 2001 and Year To Date 2000, respectively. General and administrative expenses during Third Quarter 2001 were relatively comparable to those during Third Quarter 2000. These expenses include reimbursement of costs incurred by the Managing Owner on behalf of Series E, in addition to accounting, audit, tax and legal fees as well as printing and postage costs related to reports sent to limited owners. The total amount of general and administrative expenses charged to Series E in any year is limited to 1.5% of its net asset value during such year (with a maximum of 0.5% attributable to other than legal and audit expenses). Because applicable expenses exceeded these limits, a portion of these expenses have been borne by the Managing Owner and its affiliates. 9 <Page> Item 3.
