NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SUPER FUND PREFERRED LIMITED PARTNERSHIP
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE A ORGANIZATION OF BUSINESS
Super Fund Preferred Limited Partnership (the "Partnership"), an Illinois
limited partnership, commenced its operations on November 8, 1988. The
Partnership's purpose is to realize capital appreciation through speculative
trading of commodity futures, forward and options contracts, and other commodity
interests, pursuant to the trading methods and strategies of the retained
Commodity Trading Advisors ("CTAs"). As of September 30, 1995, the CTAs with
effective advisory agreements with the Partnership were as follows: EMC Capital
Management, Inc., and Loran Futures Inc. The general partner of the Partnership
is Vision Limited Partnership (the "General Partner"). The General Partner must
maintain a net worth equal to the lesser of one million dollars or 10% of the
aggregate initial capital contributions to the Partnership by the limited
partners.
The clearing brokers of the Partnership are the General Partner and Lind-Waldock
& Company ("Lind-Waldock").
The Partnership is currently closed to new subscriptions and will be dissolved
on December 31, 2008, or upon the occurrence of certain events as specified in
the Limited Partnership Agreement.
NOTE B SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Revenue Recognition
Futures and option contracts are recorded on the trade date at the transacted
contract price and valued at market. Market values of futures and option
contracts are based upon exchange settlement prices.
Foreign Currency Translation
Assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated at
year-end exchange rates. Gains and losses resulting from foreign currency
translations are calculated using month end exchange rates and included in the
accompanying statements of operations. As of September 30, 1995, the Partnership
held assets denominated in foreign currencies equal to US $281,640.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Brokerage Commissions and Fees
These expenses represent all brokerage commissions and exchange, National
Futures Association, and other fees incurred in connection with the execution of
commodity interests trades. Commissions and fees associated with open trades at
the end of the period are accrued on a round-turn basis.
NOTE C RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
Interest Income
The Partnership and the General Partner receive 70% and 20%, respectively, of
the "Overnight Interest" on the Partnership's cash on deposit with the clearing
brokers not committed as margin. The clearing broker receives all remaining
Overnight Interest. Lind-Waldock has agreed to pay interest at a rate equal to
the "Overnight Repurchase Rate". During the nine-month period ended September
30, 1995 and 1994, the General Partner received interest in the amount of
$4,375 and $3,803, respectively.
The General Partner has agreed to pay interest at the lesser of the average
repurchase rate or the average Treasury bill rate. For the nine-month period
ended September 30, 1995 and 1994, the Partnership received from the General
Partner $9,998 and $5,973 in interest income, respectively.
Brokerage Commissions and Fees
The General Partner receives directly from the primary clearing broker,
Lind-Waldock & Co., all brokerage commissions in excess of brokerage commissions
paid to the clearing brokers and the trailing commission paid to all
non-affiliated selling agents ("Excess Brokerage Commissions"), which payment is
in lieu of a management fee. Prior to September 1, 1992, the General Partner
received only 32% of the Excess Brokerage Commissions and, thereafter, all of
the Excess Brokerage Commissions. For the nine-month period ended September 30,
1995 and 1994, the General Partner received $46,174 and $101,367 in Excess
Brokerage Commissions, respectively.
Due from Broker
The Partnership maintains an operating account with the General Partner. The
balance in the account as of September 30, 1995, is reflected in the Statement
of Financial Condition as "Due from Broker".

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE D INCENTIVE FEES
The Partnership pays incentive fees to its CTAs. The incentive fees are
calculated and paid at either the end of each month or the end of each quarter,
in an amount equal to 25% of the Partnership's new trading profits, if any, as
defined by a written agreement between the General Partner and the respective
CTAs. If any incentive fee is paid by the Partnership to the CTAs on account of
new trading profits, and the net asset value of the Partnership account
thereafter declines for any subsequent month or quarter, the CTAs are entitled
to retain such amounts previously paid by the Partnership. However, no
subsequent incentive fee based on new trading profits will be paid to the CTAs
until the Partnership recoups its losses and experiences new trading profits.
The Partnership paid $140,299 and $28,461 in incentive fees during the
nine-month period ended September 30, 1995 and 1994, respectively.
NOTE E ALLOCATION OF PROFIT AND LOSS FOR PARTNERSHIP ACCOUNTING
The Partnership's profits and losses are allocated one percent to the General
Partner and ninety-nine percent to the limited partners.
NOTE F REDEMPTIONS
A limited partner (or any assignee thereof) may cause any or all of his units to
be redeemed as of the last day of any month provided that the General Partner
has received a redemption notice in proper form not less than ten days prior to
the end of the month. Redemption value is at the month-end net asset value less
unamortized organization costs per unit. As of September 30, 1995, the
redemption value per partnership unit was $705.
NOTE G OPERATING EXPENSES
The Partnership bears all expenses incurred in connection with its activities.
These expenses include brokerage commissions and fees, incentive fees, and
periodic legal, accounting, and tax return preparation and filing fees.
NOTE H INCOME TAXES
No provision for income taxes has been made in the accompanying financial
statements. Partners are responsible for reporting income or loss based upon
their respective share of revenues and expenses of the Partnership.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
NOTE I FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS WITH OFF-BALANCE SHEET RISK AND
CONCENTRATION OF CREDIT RISK
The Partnership trades financial futures contracts and options. These financial
instruments have elements of off-balance sheet credit and market risk in excess
of the amounts recognized in the statement of financial condition. Futures
contracts are marked to market daily, with variations in value settled on a
daily basis with the exchange upon which they are traded, and with the futures
commission merchant through which the commodity futures and options are
executed.
At September 30, 1995 and 1994, the Partnership held financial futures contracts
and options with an aggregate notional value of approximately $ 11,894,776 and
$62,755,500, respectively. The notional value of these instruments is not
indicative of the Partnership's risk of loss due to counterparty
non-performance. The following table summarizes those positions by exchange and
by instrument as of September 30, 1995:

</TABLE>
The broker with which each financial futures contract or option is executed
acts as the counterparty for the above contracts and, accordingly, creates a
risk of non-performance. All of the Partnership's open financial futures and
options positions were transacted with the General Partner and Lind-Waldock.
Based upon a quarterly review of financial disclosures, including statements of
net capital and segregation requirements, the General Partner monitors the-
credit-worthiness of its counterparties and, when deemed necessary, reduces its
exposure to these counterparties. The Partnership's exposure to credit risk
associated with the non-performance of these counterparties in fulfilling
contractual obligations can be directly impacted by volatile financial markets.
Generally, financial futures contracts and options can be closed out at the
discretion of the CTAs or the General Partner, if he deems it to be in the best
interest of the Partnership. However, an illiquid market could prevent the
closeout of positions.

Item 2.
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations
The Partnership's capital consists of capital contributions of the partners as
increased or decreased by gains or losses on commodity interest trading,
interest income, expenses and redemptions of Units and distributions of profits,
if any. Commodity trading is highly leveraged and speculative. Therefore, gains
and losses on such trading are not predictable with any level of reliability.
Much of the market movement in commodities is based upon fundamental and
technical factors which the trading advisors may not be able to identify and are
not subject to the control of the Partnership.
Units of Limited Partnership interest were offered and sold through May 31,
1989. As of the date of this report, the General Partner is not contemplating
the sale of additional Units.
The General Partner may make distributions of profits, if profits are
substantial and certain Net Asset Value levels are achieved. However, no
distributions have been made since the Partnership's inception.
The Limited Partners may redeem their Units as of the last day of the month upon
written notice to the General Partner. The Limited Partners may also redeem
their Units on such other redemption dates as the General Partner in its sole
discretion may declare. Units representing $231,969 and $211,123 were redeemed
during the nine months ended September 30, 1995 and 1994, respectively.
The General Partner believes the Partnership will continue to meet both its
long-term and-short-term cash requirements for operating expenses and unit
redemptions from the cash generated by operations and, if necessary, from
withdrawals of funds from the Trading Advisors' Designated Trading Accounts.
However, the Unit redemption value may be reduced in the event that the
Partnership experiences net operating losses in the future. No assurance can be
given in this regard. There are substantial risks of loss involved in
commodities trading.
For the nine months ended September 30, 1995, the Partnership reported revenues
from its trading activities, including both net realized trading profit and the
change in net unrealized trading of $339,726, as compared with losses from
trading activities of $493,182 for the nine months ended September 30, 1994. The
increased revenues are primarily attributable to futures on foreign currency and
futures on domestic, interest bearing obligations.
Futures positions are margined with cash or cash equivalents. Funds not required
to be on deposit for margin are held in cash or cash equivalents which bear
interest at rates based on the overnight repurchase rate, for funds held by
Lind, or at the lesser of the average repurchase rate and the average Treasury
bill rate, for funds held by the General Partner. The Partnership realized
$31,125 and $34,227 in interest income from this investment during the nine
months ended September 30, 1995 and 1994, respectively.

<PAGE>
Item 2.
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations
The decrease in interest income experienced by the Partnership for the nine
months ended September 30, 1995, as compared with the same period ended
September 30, 1994, was due to the a decrease in funds available for trading.
Total expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 1995, were $309,304 as
compared to $268,167 for the nine months ended September 30, 1994. The nine
months ended September 30, 1995, exhibited a $111,838 increase in incentive fees
due to profitable overall trading.
The Partnership experienced a net profit of $61,547, or $45.44 per limited
partner unit, for the nine months ended September 30, 1995, as compared to a net
loss of $727,112, or $420.28 per limited partner unit for the nine months
ended September 30, 1994. These profits are due primarily to the taking of
profits on closed positions in foreign future contracts. The General Partner is
unable to predict whether the Partnership will experience net trading gains or
whether it will generate net losses in the future.
