WORLD MONITOR TRUST--SERIES C (a Delaware Business Trust) TABLE OF CONTENTS

2 PART I Item 1. Business General World Monitor Trust (the 'Trust') is a business trust organized under the laws of Delaware on December 17, 1997. The Trust commenced trading operations on June 10, 1998 and will terminate on December 31, 2047 unless terminated sooner as provided in the Second Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust and Trust Agreement (the 'Trust Agreement'). The Trust consists of three separate and distinct series ('Series'): Series A, B and C. The assets of each Series are segregated from those of the other Series, separately valued and independently managed. Each Series was formed to engage in the speculative trading of a diversified portfolio of futures, forward and options contracts, and may, from time to time, engage in cash and spot transactions. The trustee of the Trust is Wilmington Trust Company. The Trust's fiscal year for book and tax purposes ends on December 31. Series C (the 'Registrant') is engaged solely in the business of commodity futures and forward trading; therefore, presentation of industry segment information is not applicable. The Offering Beneficial interests in each Series ('Interests') are being offered once each week until each Series' subscription maximum has been issued either through sale or exchange or until the managing owner of the Registrant, Prudential Securities Futures Management Inc. (the 'Managing Owner'), suspends the offering of Interests. On June 10, 1998, a sufficient number of subscriptions for each Series had been received and accepted by the managing owner to permit each Series to commence trading. The Registrant completed its initial offering with gross proceeds of $5,706,177 from the sale of 56,301.770 limited interests and 760.000 general interests. General interests are sold exclusively to the managing owner. Series A was offered until it reached its subscription maximum of $34,000,000 during November 1999. Interests in Series B and Series C will continue to be offered on a weekly basis at the then current net asset value per Interest until the Managing Owner suspends the offering of Interests or the subscription maximum of $33,000,000 for each Series is sold ('Continuous Offering Period'). On February 25, 2002, the Managing Owner elected to suspend the offering of Interests in Series B and Series C upon the expiration of current selling registrations. The registration expired in many states on March 24, 2002 and all registrations will expire by April 30, 2002. While the Managing Owner does not anticipate doing so, it may, at its election, reinstate the offering of Interests in Series B and Series C in the future. During the Continuous Offering Period through December 31, 2001, the Registrant raised additional gross proceeds of $18,023,985. Managing Owner and its Affiliates The Managing Owner of the Registrant is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Prudential Securities Incorporated ('PSI'), which, in turn, is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Prudential Financial, Inc. PSI is the selling agent for the Registrant, as well as its commodity broker. The Managing Owner is required to maintain at least a 1% interest in the capital, profits and losses of each Series so long as it is acting as the Managing Owner, and it will make such contributions (and in return will receive general interests) as are necessary to meet this requirement. The Trading Advisor Each Series has its own independent commodity trading advisor that makes that Series' trading decisions. As of June 7, 2000, Hyman Beck & Company, Inc. ('Hyman Beck') ceased to serve as a trading advisor to the Registrant. The advisory agreement among the Registrant, the Managing Owner and Hyman Beck was automatically terminated when the assets allocated to Hyman Beck declined by greater than 33 1/3% from their initial allocation on June 10, 1998. On November 13, 2000, the Managing Owner entered into a new advisory agreement with Northfield Trading L.P. (the 'Trading Advisor'), an independent commodities trading advisor, to make the trading decisions for the Registrant. The new advisory agreement may be terminated for various reasons, including at the discretion of the Managing Owner. The management fee paid to the Trading Advisor equals 0.0385% 3 of the Registrant's allocated assets determined as of the close of business each Friday (an annual rate of 2%), the same previously paid to Hyman Beck. The quarterly incentive fee paid to the Trading Advisor equals 20% of the 'New High Net Trading Profits' as defined in the advisory agreement among the Registrant, the Managing Owner and the Trading Advisor as compared to 23% paid to Hyman Beck. Additionally, the Trading Advisor must recoup the cumulative trading losses of Hyman Beck before it is paid an incentive fee. Furthermore, since Series C's assets were not allocated to commodities trading from June 8, 2000 until the new Trading Advisor began trading, Series C was not subject to management fees or commissions during that period. The Managing Owner has allocated 100% of the proceeds from the initial and continuous offering of the Registrant to the Trading Advisor and it is currently contemplated that the Trading Advisor will continue to be allocated 100% of additional capital raised for the Registrant during the Continuous Offering Period. Competition The Managing Owner and its affiliates have formed, and may continue to form, various entities to engage in the speculative trading of futures, forward and options contracts which have certain of the same investment policies as the Registrant. The Registrant is an open-end fund which will solicit the sale of additional Interests on a weekly basis until the Managing Owner suspends the offering of Interests or until the subscription maximum is reached. As such, the Registrant may compete with other entities, whether or not formed by the Managing Owner, to attract new participants. In addition, to the extent that the Trading Advisor recommends similar or identical trades to the Registrant and other accounts which it manages, the Registrant may compete with those accounts for the execution of the same or similar trades, as well as with other market participants. Employees The Registrant has no employees. Management and administrative services for the Registrant are performed by the Managing Owner and its affiliates pursuant to the Trust Agreement, as further discussed in Notes A, C and D to the Registrant's financial statements included in its annual report to limited owners for the year ended December 31, 2001 (the 'Registrant's 2001 Annual Report'), which is filed as an exhibit hereto. Item 2. Properties The Registrant does not own or lease any property. Item 3. Legal Proceedings There are no material legal proceedings pending by or against the Registrant or the Managing Owner. Item 4. Submission of Matters to a Vote of Interest Holders None PART II Item 5. Market for the Registrant's Interests and Related Interest Holder Matters Information with respect to the offering of Interests and the use of proceeds is incorporated by reference to Note A to the Registrant's 2001 Annual Report, which is filed as an exhibit hereto. A significant secondary market for the Interests has not developed, and it is not expected that one will develop in the future. There are also certain restrictions set forth in the Trust Agreement limiting the ability of an Interest holder to transfer Interests. However, Interests 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. Additionally, Interests owned in one series of the Trust (Series A, B or C) may be exchanged, without any charge, for Interests of one or more other Series on a weekly basis for as long as Interests in those Series are being offered to the public. (See also Item 1, Business, for information regarding suspension of the offering of Interests.) Once the suspension of the offering of Interests takes effect, Interests owned in one series of the Trust may no longer be exchanged for Interests of one or more other Series. Exchanges and redemptions are calculated based on the applicable Series' then current net asset value per Interest as of the close of 4 business on the Friday immediately preceding the week in which the exchange or redemption request is effected. The Registrant did not sell any unregistered interests (i.e. general interests) exempt from registration under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933 during the year ended December 31, 2001. There are no material restrictions upon the Registrant's present or future ability to make distributions in accordance with the provisions of the Trust Agreement. No distributions have been made since inception and no distributions are anticipated in the future. As of March 21, 2002, there were 772 holders of record owning 71,843.746 Interests which include 743.000 general interests. Item 6.
