Morgan Stanley Spectrum Technical L.P. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MORGAN STANLEY SPECTRUM CURRENCY L.P. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Month ended YTD ended February 29, February 29, 2008 2008 ------------ ------------ Australian dollar 0.84 1.03 British pound -0.12 -0.39 Euro 1.12 1.88 Japanese yen -0.44 -0.93 Swiss franc 0.15 0.7 Minor Currencies 1.63 1.9 Note: Reflects trading results only and does not include fees or interest income. Minor currencies may include, but are not limited to, the South African rand, Thai baht, Singapore dollar, Mexican peso, New Zealand dollar, Polish zloty, Brazilian real, Norwegian krone, Swedish krona, Czech koruna, Chilean peso, Russian ruble, and Taiwan dollar. During the month, the Fund experienced gains from short positions in the U.S. dollar versus the euro, Australian dollar, Taiwan dollar, Brazilian real, Mexican peso, and Swiss franc, as well as from short positions in the South African rand versus the U.S. dollar. These gains were partially offset by losses from long positions in the Japanese yen versus the U.S. dollar, as well as from short positions in the British pound and Canadian dollar versus the U.S. dollar. Gains were experienced from short positions in the U.S. dollar versus the euro, Australian dollar, Taiwanese dollar, Brazilian real, Mexican peso, and Swiss franc as the value of the U.S. dollar declined against these currencies after weaker-than-expected manufacturing data from the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia reignited fears of an economic slowdown in the U.S. The value of the U.S. dollar continued to decline after U.S. government reports showed a rise in unemployment and slower-than-expected fourth quarter Gross Domestic Product growth. Gains were also achieved from short positions in the South African rand relative to the U.S. dollar as the value of the South African rand reversed lower against most of its major rivals due to pessimism about the long-term status of the South African economy. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MORGAN STANLEY SPECTRUM CURRENCY L.P. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (CONTINUED) Losses were incurred from long positions in the Japanese yen versus the U.S. dollar as the value of the Japanese yen was pressured lower following comments from the Bank of Japan that the Japanese economy may be slowing. Additional losses were recorded from short positions in the British pound versus the U.S. dollar as the value of the British pound increased towards the end of the month after the Office for National Statistics said sales at U.K. stores unexpectedly rose, which increased speculation that the Bank of England may not cut interest rates at its next policy meeting. Lastly, short positions in the Canadian dollar versus the U.S. dollar resulted in losses as the value of this "commodity currency" moved higher amid consistently rising global commodity prices. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MORGAN STANLEY SPECTRUM GLOBAL BALANCED L.P. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Month ended YTD ended February 29, February 29, 2008 2008 ------------ ------------ Currencies 0.41 0.4 Global Interest Rates -0.06 -0.94 Global Stock Indices 0.18 -2.34 Energies 0.15 -0.98 Metals 1.78 1.82 Agriculturals 5.14 6.8 Note: Reflects trading results only and does not include fees or interest income. During the month, the Fund experienced gains in the agricultural, metals, currency, global stock index, and energy sectors. Trading results in the global interest rate sector were essentially flat and had no material effect on overall Fund performance during the month. Within the agricultural markets, long positions in wheat futures recorded gains as prices increased to a record high on expectations that stockpiles may fall to a 30-year low. Meanwhile, long futures positions in the soybean complex recorded gains as prices moved higher amid speculation that demand from China may climb after severe winter storms damaged some of the nation's major crops. Additional gains were experienced from long positions in coffee and sugar futures as prices increased on worries regarding future supply from the producer nations of the Ivory Coast and Brazil. Within the metals markets, long positions in platinum, silver, and gold futures experienced gains as prices increased due to a declining U.S. dollar and concerns of accelerating global inflation. Elsewhere, gains were recorded from long positions in copper and tin futures as prices moved higher on reports of falling inventories amid rising demand from China and India. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MORGAN STANLEY SPECTRUM GLOBAL BALANCED L.P. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (CONTINUED) Within the currency sector, gains were experienced from short positions in the U.S. dollar versus the Australian dollar, Taiwan dollar, Swedish krona, and Norwegian krone as the value of the U.S. dollar weakened against most of its rivals after worse-than-expected manufacturing data from the Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia reignited fears that the U.S. economy may be headed for a recession. The value of the U.S. dollar continued to decline after U.S. government reports showed a rise in unemployment and slower-than-expected fourth quarter Gross Domestic Product growth. Elsewhere, short positions in the British pound versus the Swiss franc and euro resulted in gains as the value of the British pound weakened against most of its major rivals at the beginning of the month after the Bank of England cut its benchmark interest rate by a quarter point to 5.25%. Smaller gains were recorded in the global stock index sector from short positions in Canadian, U.S., and British equity index futures as prices decreased amid weak corporate earnings reports and mounting concerns regarding slowing global economic growth. Finally, long futures positions in crude oil and its related products resulted in gains as prices increased on speculation that OPEC may cut production at its next meeting, forecasts of cold weather and heavy snow in the U.S. Northeast, and ongoing geopolitical concerns in the Middle East. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MORGAN STANLEY SPECTRUM SELECT L.P. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Month ended YTD ended February 29, February 29, 2008 2008 ------------ ------------ Currencies 1.38 1.02 Global Interest Rates 0.56 3.33 Global Stock Indices 0.75 1.12 Energies 2.42 0.05 Metals 2.85 3.3 Agriculturals 5.87 7.87 Note: Reflects trading results only and does not include fees or interest income.

Lastly, long positions in corn futures recorded gains as prices rose amid signs of rising overseas demand for U.S. crops. Within the metals markets, long positions in platinum, silver, and gold futures experienced gains as prices increased due to a declining U.S. dollar and concerns of accelerating global inflation. Elsewhere, gains were recorded from long positions in aluminum and copper futures as prices moved higher on reports of falling inventories amid rising demand from China and India.

The value of the U.S. dollar continued to decline after U.S. government reports showed a rise in unemployment and slower-than-expected fourth quarter Gross Domestic Product growth. Within the global stock index sector, short positions in U.S. and European equity index futures experienced gains as prices decreased amid weak corporate earnings reports and mounting concerns regarding slowing global economic growth. Within the global interest rate sector, smaller gains were recorded from long positions in U.S. and German fixed-income futures as prices moved higher due to further weakness in the global equity markets and after worse-than-expected U.S. economic data increased speculation that the U.S. economy may be headed for a recession. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MORGAN STANLEY SPECTRUM STRATEGIC L.P. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Month ended YTD ended February 29, February 29, 2008 2008 ------------ ------------ Currencies 0.93 -0.12 Global Interest Rates -0.09 2.39 Global Stock Indices 0.08 -2.66 Energies 0.53 0.11 Metals 1.63 3.1 Agriculturals 4.06 6.92 Note: Reflects trading results only and does not include fees or interest income.

Within the global interest rate sector, long positions in short-term Australian fixed-income futures incurred losses as prices decreased on speculation that the Reserve Bank of Australia may continue to raise interest rates amid rising commodity prices. Additional losses were recorded from long positions in British fixed-income futures recorded losses as prices declined during the beginning of the month amid speculation that accelerating inflation may prevent the Bank of England from cutting interest rates. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MORGAN STANLEY SPECTRUM TECHNICAL L.P. - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Month ended YTD ended February 29, February 29, 2008 2008 ------------ ------------ Currencies 1.82 1.64 Global Interest Rates 0.52 2.95 Global Stock Indices 0.03 0.72 Energies 2.2 1.3 Metals 0.92 1.59 Agriculturals 4.4 5.77 Note: Reflects trading results only and does not include fees or interest income.

They are valued at market on a daily basis and the resulting net change in unrealized gains and losses is reflected in the change in unrealized trading profit (loss) on open contracts from one period to the next on the Statements of Operations. Monthly, MS&Co. pays each Partnership interest income at a rate equal to the monthly average of the 4-week U.S. Treasury bill discount rate during such month on 80% of the funds on deposit with the commodity brokers at each month-end in the case of Spectrum Currency, Spectrum Select, Spectrum Strategic, and Spectrum Technical, and on 100% in the case of Spectrum Global Balanced. For purposes of such interest payments, Net Assets do not include monies owed to the Partnerships on Futures Interests. The Partnerships' functional currency is the U.S. dollar; however, the Partnerships may transact business in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. Assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are translated into U.S. dollars at the rates in effect at the date of the Statements of Changes in Net Asset Value. Income and expense items denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are translated into U.S. dollars at the rates in effect during the period. Gains and losses resulting from the translation to U.S. dollars are reported in income currently. NET INCOME (LOSS) PER UNIT. Net income (loss) per unit of limited partnership interest ("Unit(s)") is computed using the weighted average number of Units outstanding during the period. BROKERAGE AND RELATED TRANSACTION FEES AND COSTS. The brokerage fees for Spectrum Currency and Spectrum Global Balanced are accrued at a flat monthly rate of 1/12 of 4.6% (a 4.6% annual rate) of Net Assets as of the first day of each month. Brokerage fees for Spectrum Select, Spectrum Strategic, and Spectrum Technical are accrued at a flat monthly rate of 1/12 of 6.0% (a 6.0% annual rate) of Net Assets as of the first day of each month. Such brokerage fees currently cover all brokerage fees, transaction fees and costs, and ordinary administrative and continuing offering expenses. OPERATING EXPENSES. The Partnerships incur monthly management fees and may incur incentive fees. All common administrative and continuing offering expenses including legal, auditing, accounting, filing fees, and other related expenses are borne by MS&Co. through the brokerage fees paid by the Partnerships. MORGAN STANLEY SPECTRUM SERIES - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (CONTINUED) CONTINUING OFFERING. Units of each Partnership are offered at a price equal to 100% of the Net Asset Value per Unit as of the close of business on the last day of each month. No selling commissions or charges related to the continuing offering of Units are paid by the limited partners or the Partnerships. MS&Co. pays all such costs. REDEMPTIONS. Limited partners may redeem some or all of their Units at 100% of the Net Asset Value per Unit as of the end of the last day of any month that is at least six months after the closing at which a person first becomes a limited partner. The Request for Redemption must be delivered to a limited partner's local Morgan Stanley Branch Office in time for it to be forwarded and received by Demeter, no later than 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the last day of the month in which the redemption is to be effective. Redemptions must be made in whole Units, in a minimum amount of 50 Units required for each redemption, unless a limited partner is redeeming his entire interest in a Partnership. Units redeemed on or prior to the last day of the twelfth month from the date of purchase will be subject to a redemption charge equal to 2% of the Net Asset Value of a Unit on the Redemption Date. Units redeemed after the last day of the twelfth month and on or prior to the last day of the twenty-fourth month from the date of purchase will be subject to a redemption charge equal to 1% of the Net Asset Value of a Unit on the Redemption Date. Units redeemed after the last day of the twenty-fourth month from the date of purchase will not be subject to a redemption charge. The foregoing redemption charges are paid to MS&Co. EXCHANGES. On the last day of the first month which occurs more than six months after a person first becomes a limited partner in any of the Partnerships, and at the end of each month thereafter, limited partners may exchange their Units among the Partnerships (subject to certain restrictions outlined in the Limited Partnership Agreements) without paying additional charges. DISTRIBUTIONS. Distributions, other than redemptions of Units, are made on a pro-rata basis at the sole discretion of Demeter. No distributions have been made to date. Demeter does not intend to make any distributions of the Partnerships' profits. INCOME TAXES. No provision for income taxes has been made in the accompanying financial statements, as partners are individually responsible for reporting income or loss based upon their respective share of each Partnership's revenues and expenses for income tax purposes.
