This Participant Agreement (this “Agreement”) is entered into between A I M Distributors, Inc.  (the “Distributor”),                                                              (the “Participant”), and The Bank of New York (the “Transfer Agent”), and is subject to acceptance by PowerShares Actively Managed Exchange-Traded Fund Trust (the “Trust”).  The Transfer Agent serves as the Transfer Agent of the Trust and is an Index Receipt Agent as that term is defined in the rules of the National Securities Clearing Corporation (“NSCC”).  The Distributor, the Transfer Agent and the Participant acknowledge and agree that the Trust shall be a third-party beneficiary of the Agreement and shall receive the benefits contemplated by the Agreement to the extent specified herein.  The Distributor has been retained to provide certain services with respect to acting as principal underwriter of the Trust in connection with the creation and distribution of shares of beneficial interest par value 0.01 per share (“Shares” or “Trust Shares”) of the Series of the Trust (each a “Fund”) set forth on Schedule I attached hereto.  As specified in the Trust’s Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information incorporated therein (together, the “Prospectus”) included as part of its Registration Statement as amended on Form N-1A.  Trust Shares may be created or redeemed only in aggregations of 50,000 shares, referred to therein and herein as a “Creation Unit”.  Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein are used herein as defined in the Trust’s Prospectus.

This Agreement is intended to set forth certain premises and the procedures by which the Participant may create and/or redeem Creation Units (i) through the Continuous Net Settlement (“CNS”) clearing processes of NSCC as such processes have been enhanced to effect creations and redemptions of Creation Units, such processes being referred to herein as the “Trust’s Clearing Process”, or (ii) outside the Trust’s Clearing Process (i.e., through the facilities of the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”)).  The parties hereto in consideration of the premises and of the agreements contained herein agree as follows:

1.             STATUS OF PARTICIPANT.  The Participant hereby represents, covenants and warrants that (i) with respect to orders for the creation or redemption of Creation Units by means of the Trust’s Clearing Process, it is a member of NSCC and a participant in the CNS System of NSCC (as defined in the Trust’s Prospectus, a “Participating Party”); and (ii) with respect to orders for the creation or redemption of Creation Units outside the Trust’s Clearing Process, it is a DTC Participant (as defined in the Trust’s Prospectus, a “DTC Participant”).  The Participant may place orders for the creation or redemption of Creation Units either through the Trust’s Clearing Process or outside the Trust’s Clearing Process, subject to the procedures for creation and redemption referred to in paragraphs 2 and 3 of this Agreement and the procedures described in Attachment A hereto.  Any change in the foregoing status of the Participant shall terminate this Agreement, and the Participant shall give prompt notice to the Distributor and the Transfer Agent of such change.

The Participant further represents that it is a broker-dealer registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission and a member of Financial Industry Regulation Agency (“FINRA”) or is exempt from or otherwise not required to be licensed as a broker-dealer or a member of FINRA.  The Participant is registered and/or licensed to act as a broker or dealer, or is otherwise exempt, as required according to all applicable laws of the state(s) in which the Participant conducts its activities as defined hereunder.  The Participant is a qualified institutional buyer as defined in Rule 144A under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”).  The Participant agrees to conform to the rules of FINRA (if it is a member of FINRA) and the securities laws of any jurisdiction to the extent such laws, rules and regulations relate to the Participant’s transactions in, and activities with respect to the Trust Shares.

2.             EXECUTION OF ORDERS.  All orders for the creation or redemption of Creation Units shall be handled in accordance with the terms of the Trust’s Prospectus, and the procedures described in

Attachment A to this Agreement.  In the event the procedures include the use of recorded telephone lines, the Participant hereby consents to such use.  (In the event that the Distributor voluntarily discloses or becomes legally compelled to disclose to any third party any recording involving communications between the Distributor and the Participant, the Distributor agrees to provide the Participant with reasonable notice so that the Participant may seek a protective order or other appropriate remedy or waive its right to do so.  In the event that such protective order or other remedy is not obtained, or the Participant waives its right to seek such protective order or remedy, the Distributor agrees to furnish only that portion of the recorded conversation that according to legal counsel is legally required and will exercise its best efforts to obtain a protective order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded the recorded conversation, provided that the Distributor shall not be required to incur any expenses in obtaining such treatment without reimbursement by the Participant).  The Trust reserves the right to issue additional or other procedures relating to the manner of creating or redeeming Creation Units, and the Participant, the Distributor and the Transfer Agent agree to comply with such procedures as may be issued from time to time, upon reasonable notice thereof.

3.             NSCC.  Solely with respect to orders for the creation or redemption of Creation Units through the Trust’s Clearing Process, the Participant as a Participating Party hereby authorizes the Transfer Agent to transmit to NSCC on behalf of the Participant such instructions, including share and cash amounts as are necessary with respect to the creation and redemption of Creation Units consistent with the instructions issued by the Participant to the Trust telephone representative identified in Attachment A hereto (the “Trust Representative”).  The Participant agrees to be bound by the terms of such instructions issued by the Transfer Agent and reported to NSCC as though such instructions were issued by the Participant directly to NSCC; provided, however, that Participant shall not be bound or held liable for, and shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Transfer Agent from and against any loss, liability, cost and expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by Participant as a result of, communication errors occurring between the Transfer Agent and NSCC to the extent that such instructions between the Transfer Agent and NSCC do not accurately reflect the instructions communicated by the Participant to the Transfer Agent.

With respect to any order for the creation or redemption of Creation Units, the Participant acknowledges and agrees on behalf of itself and any party for which it is acting (regardless of its capacity) to return to the Trust any dividend, distribution or other corporate action that is erroneously paid or credited to the Participant or to the party for which it is acting in respect of any Deposit Security that is transferred between the parties that, based on the valuation of such Deposit Security at the time of transfer, according to industry custom, should have been paid to the Fund.  With respect to any orders for the creation or redemption of Creation Units, the Participant also acknowledges and agrees on behalf of itself and any party for which it is acting (regardless of its capacity) that the Transfer Agent is entitled to reduce the amount of money or other proceeds due to the Participant or any party for which it is acting by an amount equal to any dividend, distribution or other corporate action that erroneously is scheduled to be paid or credited or has been paid or credited to the Participant or to the party for which it is acting that, based on the valuation of such Deposit Security at the time of transfer, according to industry custom, should be paid to the Fund.  With respect to any order for the creation or redemption of Creation Units, the Trust acknowledges and agrees to return to the Participant or any party for which it is acting any dividend, distribution or other corporate action that is erroneously paid or credited to the Fund in respect of any Deposit Security that is transferred between the parties that, based on the valuation of such Deposit Security at the time of transfer, according to industry custom, should have been paid to the Participant or any party for which it is acting.

ATTACHMENT A

This document supplements the Trust’s Prospectus, and is an attachment to the Trust Participant Agreement with respect to the procedures to be used by (i) the Transfer Agent in processing an order for the creation of Trust Shares and (ii) the Transfer Agent in processing a request for the redemption of Trust Shares, and (iii) the Participants and the Transfer Agent in delivering or arranging for the delivery of requisite cash payments, Portfolio Deposits or Trust Shares, as the case may be, in connection with the submission of orders for creation or requests for redemption.

A Participant is first required to have signed the Trust Participant Agreement.  Upon acceptance of the Trust Participant Agreement by the Distributor and the Transfer Agent, the Transfer Agent will assign a PIN Number to each Authorized Person authorized to act for the Participant.  This will allow a Participant through its Authorized Person(s) to place an order with respect to Trust Shares.

I.             TO PLACE AN ORDER FOR CREATION OR REDEMPTION OF TRUST SHARES

1.             Call to Receive a Submission Number.  An Authorized Person for the Participant will call the Trust Telephone Representative at (▇▇▇) ▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇ or 4970 not later than the closing time of the regular trading session on The New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE Closing Time”) (ordinarily 4:00 p.m., Eastern time) to receive a Submission Number.  In the case of custom orders, the order must be received by the Transfer Agent no later than 3:00 p.m., Eastern time on the trade date.  Upon verifying the authenticity of the caller (as determined by the use of the appropriate PIN Number) and the terms of the order for creation or request for redemption, the Trust Telephone Representative will issue a unique Submission Number.  All orders with respect to the creation or redemption of Trust Shares are required to be in writing and accompanied by the designated Submission Number.  Incoming telephone calls are queued and will be handled in the sequence received.  The Participant must receive a Submission Number prior to NYSE Closing Time for its order to be processed that Business Day INCOMING CALLS THAT ARE ATTEMPTED LATER THAN THE NYSE CLOSING TIME WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED.

2.             Assemble the Submission.  The Authorized Person submitting an order to create or a request to redeem shall assemble (a) written instructions regarding such creation order or redemption request, (b) the designated Submission Number and (c) transmit such document by facsimile or telex to the Trust Telephone Representative and the Distributor, as applicable, according to the procedures set forth below in subsection 3.  The document so transmitted is hereinafter referred to as the “Submission”, and the Business Day on which a Submission is made is hereinafter referred to as the “Transmittal Date”.  NOTE THAT THE TELEPHONE CALL IN WHICH THE SUBMISSION NUMBER IS ISSUED INITIATES THE ORDER PROCESS BUT DOES NOT ALONE CONSTITUTE THE ORDER.  AN ORDER OR REQUEST IS ONLY COMPLETED AND PROCESSED UPON RECEIPT OF THE SUBMISSION.

3.             Transmit the Submission.  A Submission Number is only valid for a limited time.  The Submission for either creations or redemptions of Trust Shares must be sent by facsimile or telex to the Trust Telephone Representative, as applicable, within 15 minutes of the issuance of the Submission Number.  In the event that the Submission is not received within such time period, the Trust Telephone Representative will use commercially reasonable efforts to contact the Participant to request immediate transmission of the Submission.

(a)           In the case of a Submission for creation, unless the Submission is received by the Trust Telephone Representative upon the earlier of within (i) 15 minutes of contact with the Participant or (ii) 15 minutes after the NYSE Closing Time, the Submission will be deemed invalid.

i

(b)           In the case of a Submission for redemption, unless such Submission is received by the Trust Telephone Representative within (i) 15 minutes of contact with the Participant or (ii) 15 minutes after the NYSE Closing Time, whichever is earlier, such order for redemption contained therein shall be received in proper form (as described in the Prospectus) by the Distributor on the Business Day following such Transmittal Date in accordance with the procedures set forth below or in the Fund’s Prospectus as the case may be.

II.                                   PARTICIPANTS’ RESPONSIBILITY FOR DELIVERING OR EFFECTING THE DELIVERY OF REQUISITE PORTFOLIO DEPOSITS OR TRUST SHARES AND CASH PAYMENTS IN CONNECTION WITH ORDERS FOR CREATION OR REQUESTS FOR REDEMPTION

1.             Trust’s Clearing Process-Creation Orders.  The Participating Party notified of confirmation of an order to create Trust Shares through the Trust’s Clearing Process shall be required to transfer or arrange for the transfer of (a) the requisite Deposit Securities (or contracts to purchase such Deposit Securities expected to be delivered through NSCC by the “regular way” settlement date) and (b) the Cash Component, if any, to the Transfer Agent by means of the Trust’s Clearing Process so as to be received no later than on the “regular way” settlement date following the Business Day on which such order is received (as described in the Prospectus) by the Transfer Agent as set forth below.

2.     Trust’s Clearing Process - Redemption Requests.  The Participating Party notified of confirmation of a request to redeem Trust Shares through the Trust’s Clearing Process shall be required to

ii

transfer or arrange for the transfer of the requisite Trust Shares and the Cash Redemption Amount, if any, to the Transfer Agent by means of the Trust’s Clearing Process so as to be received no later than on the “regular way” settlement date following the Business Day on which such order is received (as described in the Prospectus) by the Transfer Agent as set forth below.

3.     Outside the Trust’s Clearing Process - Creation Orders.

Domestic.  The DTC Participant notified of acknowledgment of an order to create Trust Shares outside the Trust’s Clearing Process shall be required to effect a transfer to the Transfer Agent of (a) the requisite Deposit Securities through DTC so as to be received by the Transfer Agent no later than 11:00 a.m., Eastern time on the next Business Day immediately following the Business Day on which such order is received in proper form (as described in the Prospectus) by the Distributor as set forth below in Section IV, in such a way as to replicate the Portfolio Deposit established on the Transmittal Date by the Transfer Agent and (b) the Cash Component, if any, through the Federal Reserve Bank wire system so as to be received by the Transfer Agent by 2:00 p.m., Eastern time on the next Business Day immediately following the day such order is received in proper form (as described in the Prospectus).  If the Transfer Agent does not receive the Deposit Securities by 11:00 a.m., Eastern time, and the Cash Component, if any, by 2:00 p.m., Eastern time on the Business Day immediately following the day such order is received in proper form (as described in the Prospectus), the creation order contained in such Submission shall be canceled.  Upon written notice to the Transfer Agent, the DTC Participant may resubmit such canceled order on the following Business Day using a Portfolio Deposit as newly constituted.

Foreign.  Deposit Securities must be delivered to an account maintained at the applicable local sub-custodian of the Trust on or before [2:00] p.m., Eastern time, on the Contractual Settlement Date (defined below).  Participant must also make available on or before the Contractual Settlement Date, by means satisfactory to the Trust, immediately available or same day funds estimated by the Trust to be sufficient to pay the Cash Component next determined after acceptance of an order, together with the applicable Transaction Fee.  Any excess funds will be returned following settlement of the issue of the Creation Unit of Shares.  The “Contractual Settlement Date” is the earlier of (i) the date upon which all of the required Deposit Securities, the Cash Component and any other cash amounts which may be due are delivered to the Trust and (ii) the latest day for settlement on the customary settlement cycle in the jurisdiction where any of the securities of the relevant Fund are customarily traded.

A Creation Unit of Shares will not be issued until the transfer of good title to the Trust of the portfolio of Deposit Securities and the payment of the Cash Component and the applicable Transaction Fee have been completed.  When the sub-custodian confirms to the Custodian that the required securities included in the Portfolio Deposit (or, when permitted in the sole discretion of the Trust, the cash value thereof) have been delivered to the account of the relevant sub-custodian, the Custodian shall notify the Distributor and Transfer Agent, and the Trust will issue and cause the delivery of the Creation Unit of Shares via DTC.

In the event that Participant is unable to deliver the Deposit Securities because the country does not permit “free delivery of securities” then the Participant shall deliver such amounts of cash in lieu of securities as described in the Fund’s Prospectus.

4.     Purchase of Creation Unit Aggregations Prior to Receipt of Deposit Securities.  Creation Unit Aggregations may be created in advance of receipt by the Trust of all or a portion of the applicable Deposit Securities as described below.  In these circumstances, the initial deposit will have a value greater than the net asset of the Fund Shares on the date the order is placed in proper form since, in addition to available Deposit Securities, cash must be deposited in an amount equal to the sum of (i) the Cash Component, plus (ii) 115% of the market value of the undelivered Deposit Securities (the “Additional

iii

Cash Deposit”).  The order shall be deemed to be received on the Business Day on which the order is placed provided that the order is placed in proper form prior to 4:00 p.m., Eastern time, on such date, and federal funds in the appropriate amount are deposited with the Transfer Agent by 11:00 a.m., Eastern time, the following Business Day.  If the order is not placed in proper form by 4:00 p.m. or federal funds in the appropriate amount are not received by 11:00 a.m. the next Business Day, then the order may be deemed to be canceled and the Authorized Participant shall be liable to the Fund for losses, if any, resulting therefrom.  An additional amount of cash shall be required to be deposited with the Trust, pending delivery of the missing Deposit Securities to the extent necessary to maintain the Additional Cash Deposit with the Trust in an amount at least equal to 115% of the daily marked to market value of the missing Deposit Securities.

5.     Outside the Trust’s Clearing Process - Redemption Requests.

Domestic.  The DTC Participant notified of acknowledgment of a request to redeem Trust Shares outside the Trust’s Clearing Process shall be required to effect a transfer to the Transfer Agent (a) the requisite number of Trust Shares through DTC no later than the NYSE Closing Time on the Business Day on which such order is received in proper form (as described in the Prospectus) by the Transfer Agent and (b) the Cash Redemption Amount, if any, through the Federal Reserve Bank wire system by no later than 2:00 p.m., Eastern time on the next Business Day immediately following the Business Day on which such order is received in proper form (as described in the Prospectus) by the Transfer Agent.

Foreign.  Deliveries of in-kind redemption proceeds generally will be made within three Business Days.  Due to holidays in certain countries, delivery to redeeming Participants may take longer than three Business Days after the day on which the Transfer Agent receives the participant’s redemption order in proper form.  A redeeming Beneficial Owner or Participant acting on behalf of such Beneficial Owner must maintain appropriate securities broker-dealer, bank or other custody arrangements to which account such in-kind redemption proceeds will be delivered.  If neither the redeeming Beneficial Owner nor the Participant acting on behalf of the redeeming Beneficial Owner has appropriate arrangements to take delivery of the Deposit Securities in the applicable jurisdiction and it is not possible to make other such arrangements, or if it is not possible to effect deliveries of the Deposit Securities in such jurisdiction, the Beneficial Owner will be required to receive its redemption proceeds in cash.  In such case, the investor will receive a cash payment equal to the net asset value of its shares less the applicable Transaction Fee.

Arrangements satisfactory to the Trust must be in place for the Participant to transfer Creation Units through DTC on or before the settlement date.  Redemptions of Shares for Fund Securities will be subject to compliance with applicable U.S. federal and state securities laws and the Funds (whether or not it otherwise permits cash redemptions) reserve the right to redeem Creation Units for cash to the extent that the Funds could not lawfully deliver specific Fund Securities upon redemptions or could not do so without first registering the Deposit Securities under such laws.

6.     Transaction Fee.  In connection with the creation or redemption of Creation Units, the Transfer Agent shall charge, and the Participant agrees to pay to the Transfer Agent, the Transaction Fee prescribed in the Trust’s prospectus applicable to (i) creations or redemptions through the Trust’s Clearing Process, or the Transaction Fee and such additional amounts as may be prescribed pursuant to the Trust’s prospectus applicable to creations or redemptions outside the Trust’s Clearing Process and
(ii) creations within the Trust’s Clearing Process where the cash equivalent value of one or more Deposit Securities is being deposited in lieu of the inclusion of such Deposit Security in the securities portion of the Portfolio Deposit because the Participant is restricted by regulation or otherwise from investing or engaging in a transaction in such security.  Such Transaction Fee and additional amounts, if any, shall be included in the calculation of the Cash Component or Cash Redemption Amount payable or to be received, as the case may be, by the Participant in connection with the creation or redemption order.

III.                               TRANSFER AGENT’S RESPONSIBILITY FOR EFFECTING DELIVERY OF REQUISITE TRUST SHARES OR SECURITIES AND CASH PAYMENTS IN CONNECTION WITH ORDERS FOR CREATION OR REQUESTS FOR REDEMPTION.

1.             Trust’s Clearing Process - Creation Order.  After the Transfer Agent has received notification of a Submission from the Participant for a creation order for Trust Shares through the Trust’s Clearing Process which has been received in proper form (as described in the Prospectus) by the Transfer Agent, the Transfer Agent shall initiate procedures to transfer the requisite Trust Shares and the Cash Component, if any, through the Trust’s Clearing Process so as to be received by the creator no later than on the “regular way” settlement date following the Business Day on which the Submission is received in proper form (as described in the Prospectus) by the Transfer Agent.

2.             Trust’s Clearing Process - Redemption Requests.  After the Transfer Agent has received a Submission for a redemption request for Trust Shares through the Trust’s Clearing Process and received in proper form (as described in the Prospectus) such submission as set forth below in Section IV, the Transfer Agent shall initiate procedures to transfer the requisite securities (or contracts to purchase such securities expected to be delivered through NSCC by the “regular way” settlement date) and the Cash Redemption Amount, if any, through the Trust’s Clearing Process so as to be received by the Beneficial Owner no later than on the “regular way” settlement date following the Business Day on which the Submission is received in proper form (as described in the Prospectus) by the Transfer Agent.

3.             Outside the Trust’s Clearing Process-Creation Orders.

Domestic.  After the Transfer Agent has received notification of a Submission from the Participant for a creation order for Trust Shares outside the Trust’s Clearing Process which has been received in proper form (as described in the Prospectus) by the Transfer Agent, the Transfer Agent shall initiate procedures to transfer the requisite Trust Shares through DTC and the DTC Participants and the Cash Component, if any, through the Federal Reserve Bank wire system so as to be received by the creator no later than on the third (3rd) Business Day following the Business Day on which the Submission is received in proper form (as described in the Prospectus) by the Transfer Agent.

4.             Outside the Trust’s Clearing Process-Redemption Requests.  After the Transfer Agent has received a Submission for a redemption request for Trust Shares outside the Trust’s Clearing Process and received in proper form (as described in the Prospectus) such submission, the Transfer Agent shall initiate procedures to transfer the requisite securities (or contracts to purchase such securities expected to be delivered within three Business Days) through DTC and the DTC Participants and the Cash Redemption Amount, if any, through the Federal Reserve Bank wire system so as to be received by the Beneficial Owner no later than on the third (3rd) Business Day (or longer for certain foreign countries) following the Business Day on which the Submission is received in proper form (as described in the Prospectus) by the Transfer Agent.

5.             Ambiguous Instructions.  In the event that a Submission contains terms that differ from the information provided in the telephone call at the time of issuance of the Submission Number, the Trust Telephone Representative will use commercially reasonable efforts to contact the Participant to request confirmation of the terms of the order.  If an Authorized Person confirms the terms as they appear in the Submission then the Submission will be accepted and processed.  If an Authorized Person contradicts its terms, the Submission will be deemed invalid, and a corrected Submission must be received by the Transfer Agent, as applicable, not later than the earlier of (i) within 15 minutes of such contact with the Participant or (ii) 15 minutes after the NYSE Closing Time.  If the Trust Telephone Representative is not able to contact an Authorized Person, then the Submission shall be accepted and processed in accordance with its terms notwithstanding any inconsistency from the terms of the telephone

v

information.  In the event that a Submission contains terms that are illegible, the Submission will be deemed invalid and the Trust Telephone Representative will attempt to contact the Participant to request retransmission of the Submission.  A corrected Submission must be received by the Transfer Agent, as applicable, not later than the earlier of (i) within 15 minutes of such contact with the Participant or (ii) 15 minutes after the NYSE Closing Time.

6.             Suspension or Rejection of an Order.  The Distributor or Transfer Agent reserves the right to suspend a Submission in the event that its acceptance would appear to result in the Participant or a Beneficial Owner owning 80 percent (80%) or more of all outstanding Trust Shares and if pursuant to Section 351 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, such a circumstance would result in the Trust having a basis in the securities deposited different from the market value of such securities on the date of deposit.  In such event, the Distributor or the Trust Telephone Representative will attempt to contact an Authorized Person for purposes of confirmation of the fact that with respect to such Participant no Beneficial Owner would own 80 percent (80%) or more of all outstanding Trust Shares upon execution of the Submission or that such a circumstance would not result in the Trust having a basis in the securities deposited different from the market value of such securities on the date of deposit.  In the event that (i) the Distributor or the Trust Telephone Representative is unable to contact an Authorized Person or (ii) the Participant fails to transmit an identical Submission containing a representation and warranty as to such fact, then the Submission shall be deemed invalid.

The Trust reserves the absolute right to reject a creation order transmitted to it by the Distributor in respect of a Fund if: (i) the order is not in proper form; (ii) the investor(s), upon obtaining the Fund Shares ordered, would own 80% or more of the currently outstanding shares of any Fund; (iii) the Deposit Securities delivered are not as disseminated for that date by the Custodian, as described above; (iv) acceptance of the Deposit Securities would have certain adverse tax consequences to the Fund; (v) acceptance of the Fund Deposit would, in the opinion of counsel, be unlawful; (vi) acceptance of the Fund Deposit would otherwise, in the discretion of the Trust or the Adviser, have an adverse effect on the Trust or the rights of beneficial owners; or (vii) in the event that circumstances outside the control of the Trust, the Transfer Agent, the Distributor and the Adviser make it for all practical purposes impossible to process creation orders.  Examples of such circumstances include acts of God; public service or utility problems such as fires, floods, extreme weather conditions and power outages resulting in telephone, telecopy and computer failures; market conditions or activities causing trading halts; systems failures involving computer or other information systems affecting the Trust, the Adviser, the Distributor, DTC, NSCC, the Transfer Agent, the Custodian or sub-custodian or any other participant in the creation process, and similar extraordinary events.  The Transfer Agent shall notify immediately a prospective creator of a Creation Unit and/or the Authorized Participant acting on behalf of such prospective creator of its rejection of the order of such person.  The Trust, the Custodian, any sub-custodian and the Distributor are under no duty, however, to give notification of any defects or irregularities in the delivery of Fund Deposits nor shall any of them incur any liability for the failure to give any such notification.

IV.                               PROCEDURES SPECIFIC TO CUSTOM BASKETS

The Fund has developed custom creation, redemption and other non-typical baskets (the “Custom Baskets”).  Custom Baskets are intended to allow Participants to transact in that Fund and other non-standard baskets using the Custom Basket process.  The Custom Basket process allows for cash-in-lieu for certain securities as well as non-typical baskets and continues to settle through the standard CNS process at NSCC.  It is the responsibility of the Participant to apply to the NSCC by contacting DTCC Participant Services at ▇▇▇-▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇ and the Transfer Agent at ▇▇▇-▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇ or 4970 to allow them to receive Custom Baskets as well as the regular daily standard baskets (the “Standard Baskets”).  To ensure proper tracking of the Fund to its benchmark index the following guidelines must be followed when transacting Custom Baskets:

vi

1.             On or before T-1, the Participant must request a Custom Basket Application Form from the Transfer Agent by calling ▇▇▇-▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇ or 4970 for creations and redemptions.  The Transfer Agent will fax a standard Application Form (see attached) on which the Participant must identify the securities to be added to or omitted from the creation or redemption basket (the “Added Issues” or the “Omitted Issues”).  In the case of an Omitted Issue, cash in lieu is defined as the Net Asset Value of the Fund times the number of units in one creation block minus the value of the Omitted Issues.  Participants will also be responsible for any costs associated with the conversion of cash into the Omitted Issues to be purchased.  Participants may request that the Custom Basket be available for creations and redemptions for a one-time transaction, a specific period or indefinitely.  The Transfer Agent will advise the Fund who will review the Custom Basket request and, if approved, will deliver a confirmation back to the Transfer Agent and the Participant.  In the event subsequent additions and/or deletions to Added Issues or Omitted Issues are required to change the custom basket already approved, the Participant is responsible for completing a new standard form with the Transfer Agent.

2.             On trade date minus 1 day, prior to the opening of the NYSE, the Fund through Transfer Agent will notify NSCC as to the components of the approved Custom Baskets available that day along with the components of the Standard Basket.  Each Custom Basket will be identified by a separate NSCC assigned instruction CUSIP.

3.             On trade date, the Participant will follow the directions regarding placing orders outlined in Attachment A.  A Participant wishing to create or redeem a Custom Basket must identify the custom CUSIP on the order form in the blank provided.  Orders received without a custom CUSIP indicated will be processed as orders for Standard Baskets.  Participants placing orders for Custom Baskets must note that the cut-off-time to create and redeem a Custom Basket will be 3:00 p.m. New York time.  Orders for Custom Baskets will not be processed if received by the Transfer Agent after 3:00 p.m. New York time.  The Participant may transact on the Standard Basket at any time during the trade date.

V.                                   TELEPHONE, FACSIMILE, AND TELEX NUMBERS

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Participant acknowledges that he or she has read the procedures relating to Custom Baskets and agrees to comply with all such procedures.  Failure to comply with the Custom Basket procedures will require the transaction to be effected in the Standard Basket.
