This Agreement is subject to acceptance by State Street Bank and Trust Company, a Massachusetts trust company acting in its capacity as transfer agent, dividend and distribution disbursing agent and agent in connection with certain other activities of each Fund of the Trust (the “Transfer Agent”).

R E C I T A L S

A. The Trust was created under the Delaware Statutory Trust Act pursuant to its Second Amended and Restated Trust Agreement dated as of June 16, 2014 (the “Trust Agreement”) between the Trustee and the Sponsor. Pursuant to the Trust Agreement, each Fund may from time to time issue or redeem equity securities (“Shares”) of each of its paired classes (each a “Class” or “Paired Class” and collectively, the “Classes” or “Paired Classes,” of such Fund), with each Share representing a fractional, undivided beneficial interest in the assets of such Fund attributable to such Share’s Class, as specified in the Trust Agreement. One Class of each Fund’s Shares shall be positively linked to the Fund’s Underlying Index (“Up Shares”) and the other Class shall be negatively linked to the Fund’s Underlying Index (“Down Shares”), as listed for each Fund on Annex A hereto. Each Fund will, at all times, have equal numbers of Up Shares and Down Shares. The Up Shares and Down Shares of a Fund are referred to herein as “Paired Shares.”

B. Each issuance of Paired Shares by a Fund will be offered pursuant to a prospectus (each, as amended, restated or supplemented from time to time, a “Prospectus”) that shall be filed as part of an effective registration statement (each, as amended or restated from time to time, a “Registration Statement” and collectively, the “Registration Statements”), filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

C. In accordance with this Agreement, as supplemented by the Creation and Redemption Procedures on Schedule 1 hereto (such procedures, as the same may be amended or modified from time to time in compliance with the provisions hereof and thereof, the “Procedures”), and the terms of the Trust Agreement, the Trust, acting through the Sponsor on behalf of the applicable Fund, may create and redeem the applicable Paired Shares of the applicable Fund in units of equal amounts of Up Shares and Down Shares in each case only in the aggregate amounts as set forth in Annex A hereto (each such unit, a “Basket”) and integral multiples thereof and only in transactions with a Person who, at the time of the transaction, shall have executed an Authorized Participant Agreement with the Trust with respect to such Fund that remains in effect at such time.

D. In exchange for the deposit of cash in an amount equal to the applicable aggregate Cash Amount, an Authorized Participant may create one or more Baskets of a Fund. In exchange for a deposit of the number of applicable Paired Shares constituting one or more Baskets of a Fund, an Authorized Participant may redeem such Basket(s) for the applicable aggregate Cash Amount.

E. This Agreement is intended to set forth certain premises and the procedures by which the Authorized Participant may purchase and/or redeem Baskets of Paired Shares with cash settlement occurring (i) through the Continuous Net Settlement (“CNS”) clearing processes of the National Securities Clearing Corporation (“NSCC”) as such processes have been enhanced to effect purchases and redemptions of Baskets, such processes being referred to herein as the “CNS Clearing Process,” or (ii) outside the CNS Clearing Process, through the manual process of The Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) (such process, the “DTC Process”), and with Paired Share settlement occurring through the facilities of DTC.

F. [•] has requested to become an “Authorized Participant” with respect to each Fund, and the Sponsor has agreed to such request.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing premises, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto, intending to be legally bound, agree as follows:

Section 1. Procedures. The Authorized Participant will purchase or redeem Baskets of Paired Shares of each Fund in compliance with the Procedures, through the Transfer Agent’s online services (▇▇▇▇▇://▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇.▇▇▇/▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇/▇▇▇/) or using the form (the “Order Form”) contained in Annex I thereto (a “Purchase Order,” in the case of an order to purchase one or more Baskets of Paired Shares issued by a specified Fund and a “Redemption Order,” in case of an order to redeem one or more Baskets of Paired Shares issued by a specified Fund). All Purchase Orders and Redemption Orders (collectively, “Orders”) shall be placed and executed in accordance with the Trust Agreement as supplemented by the Procedures. The Procedures, including Annex I thereto, are hereby incorporated by reference into, and made a part of, this Agreement.

Section 2. Incorporation of Standard Terms. The Standard Terms contained in Schedule 2 hereto (the “Standard Terms”) are hereby incorporated by reference into, and made a part of, this Agreement.

Section 3. Conflicts Rules. To the extent there is a conflict between any provision of this Agreement and the provisions of the Trust Agreement, the provisions of the Trust Agreement will govern. To the extent there is a conflict between any provision of the Procedures and any other provision of this Agreement, the provisions of the Procedures will govern. To the extent there is a conflict between any provision of the Standard Terms and any other provision of this Agreement, the other provisions of this Agreement will govern. To the extent there is a conflict between any provision of this Agreement and the provisions of the applicable Fund’s Prospectus, the provisions of such Prospectus will govern.

Section 4. Fees. In connection with each Order by an Authorized Participant to create or redeem one or more Baskets, the Authorized Participant agrees to pay the Transaction Fee with respect to such creation or redemption. If the Authorized Participant does not pay the Transaction Fee, the Fund shall be entitled to reduce the amount of any money or other proceeds due to the Authorized Participant or any Authorized Participant Client by the Transaction Fee. The Transaction Fee may be adjusted from time to time as set forth in the Trust Agreement. As described in the Procedures, the Authorized Participant agrees to pay an additional fee if the Authorized Participant fails timely to deliver the

aggregate Cash Amount with respect to a Purchase Order, or the Baskets with respect to a Redemption Order, as the case may be.

Section 5. Authorized Representatives. Pursuant to Section 2.01 of the Standard Terms, the Authorized Representatives of the Authorized Participant are listed on Schedule 3 hereto.

Any change in the foregoing status of the Authorized Participant shall terminate this Agreement and the Authorized Participant shall give prompt written notice to the Sponsor and the Transfer Agent of any such change. The Authorized Participant shall place any and all Orders in accordance with the procedures for purchase and redemption set forth in this Agreement and the Prospectus.

(b) The Authorized Participant has the capability to send and receive communications via authenticated telecommunication facility to and from the Transfer Agent and the Authorized Participant’s custodian. The Authorized Participant shall confirm such capability to the satisfaction of the Transfer Agent prior to placing its first Order with the Transfer Agent (whether it is a Purchase Order or a Redemption Order).

(c) With respect to any Redemption Order with respect to a Fund submitted following a Distribution Date, for which the Sponsor has agreed to settlement prior to the record date of a Regular Distribution, Special Distribution or Net Income Distribution declared on such Distribution Date pursuant to Sections 3.01(d) and (e) of the Procedures, the Authorized Participant on behalf of itself and each Authorized Participant Client acknowledges and agrees to pay to the Fund an amount in cash equal to the sum of (i) the aggregate Class Values per Share of any Shares, plus (ii) any cash, distributed to it or any Authorized Participant Client in such Distribution in respect of any Shares that are subject to such Redemption Order (the “AP Amount”). If the Authorized Participant does not pay the AP Amount, the Fund shall be entitled to reduce the amount of any money or other proceeds, or the number of Shares, due to the Authorized Participant or any Authorized Participant Client by the AP Amount or a number of Shares with aggregate Class Values per Share equal to the AP Amount, respectively.

Section 7. Acknowledgment. The Authorized Participant acknowledges receipt of (a) a copy of the Trust Agreement and (b) each Fund’s current Prospectus, and represents that it has reviewed and understands such documents.

Section 9. Effectiveness, Termination and Amendment. This Agreement shall become effective upon execution and delivery hereof by each of the parties hereto. Unless earlier terminated (a) pursuant

to Section 6(a) hereof, (b) pursuant to Section 14 hereof or (c) with respect to a Fund, upon the termination of such Fund, this Agreement may be terminated at any time by any party hereto upon sixty days prior written notice to the other parties hereto and may be terminated earlier by the Sponsor at any time in the event of a breach by the Authorized Participant of any provision of this Agreement. This Agreement and the Trust Agreement, along with any other agreement or instrument delivered pursuant to this Agreement, supersedes any prior agreement between or among the parties hereto concerning the matters governed hereby; provided, however, that the Authorized Participant shall not be deemed by this provision to be a party to the Trust Agreement. This Agreement may be amended by the Sponsor from time to time without the consent of the Authorized Participant or any Beneficial Owner, upon written notice to the Authorized Participant, which notice shall include a copy of the proposed amendment. Any such amendment shall become effective ten Business Days following receipt of such notice. For the avoidance of doubt, the termination of this Agreement with respect to one Fund does not affect the status of this Agreement with respect to the other Funds.

Section 10. Governing Law. This Agreement and all the transactions contemplated hereby shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of New York (without giving effect to its conflict of law provisions) as to all matters including matters of validity, construction, effect, performance and remedies. The parties hereto hereby irrevocably submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State or United States Federal court sitting in New York City over any suit, action or proceeding arising out of, or relating to, this Agreement. Each party hereto hereby waives any claim of forum non conveniens and any objections as to laying of venue that it may be entitled to, and further waives personal service of any summons, complaint or other process and agrees that service thereof may be made by certified or registered mail directed to such party at such party’s address, as determined in accordance with Section 8 hereof.

Section 11. Assignment. No party to this Agreement shall assign any of its rights, or delegate the performance of any of its obligations, arising hereunder without the prior written consent of the other parties hereto, which shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, that any entity into which a party hereto may be merged or converted, or with which it may be consolidated, or any entity resulting from any merger, consolidation or conversion to which a party hereto shall be a merging, consolidating or converting party, shall be the successor of such party hereto without any such consent. The entity resulting from any such merger, conversion or consolidation shall promptly notify the other parties hereto of such merger, consolidation or conversion. Any purported assignment or delegation in violation of these provisions shall be null and void. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any successor transfer agent of the Trust appointed by the Sponsor shall automatically be deemed to have accepted this Agreement and shall assume all the obligations, and be entitled to all the rights and remedies, of the Transfer Agent hereunder with respect to the Trust and the applicable Funds.

Section 12. No Strict Construction. The language used in this Agreement will be deemed to be the language chosen by the parties hereto to express their mutual intent, and no rule of strict construction will be applied against any party hereto.

Section 13. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, each of which shall be an original and all of which shall constitute one and the same instrument.

Section 14. Severance. If any provision of this Agreement is held by any court or any act, regulation, rule or decision of any other governmental or supra-national body or authority or regulatory

or self-regulatory organization to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable for any reason, it shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable only to the extent so held and such holding shall not affect the validity, legality or enforceability of the other provisions of this Agreement and this Agreement will be construed as if such invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein, unless the Sponsor determines in its sole discretion, after consulting with the Transfer Agent, that such holding does affect the validity, legality or enforceability of one or more other provisions of this Agreement, and this Agreement with respect to any or all Funds should not be continued without the provision that was held invalid, illegal or unenforceable, and in that case, upon the Sponsor’s notification to the Transfer Agent of such a determination, this Agreement with respect to such Funds shall immediately terminate and the Sponsor will so notify the Authorized Participant and the Transfer Agent immediately.

Section 15. Waiver of Compliance. Any failure of any of the parties hereto to comply with any obligation, covenant, agreement or condition herein may be waived by the party entitled to the benefits thereof only by a written instrument signed by the party granting such waiver, but any such written waiver, or the failure to insist upon strict compliance with any obligation, covenant, agreement or condition herein, shall not operate as a waiver of, or give rise to any claim of estoppel with respect to, any subsequent or other failure hereunder.

Section 16. Third Party Beneficiaries. Each Indemnified Party (as defined in the Standard Terms), to the extent it is not a party to this Agreement, is a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement (each, a “Third Party Beneficiary”) and may proceed directly against the Authorized Participant (including by bringing proceedings against the Authorized Participant in its own name) to enforce any obligation of the Authorized Participant under this Agreement which directly or indirectly benefits such Third Party Beneficiary. The provisions of this Section 16 shall survive termination of this Agreement.

Section 17. Force Majeure. The Sponsor, the Transfer Agent and the Authorized Participant shall not incur any liability for any delay in performance, or for the non-performance, of any of its obligations under this Agreement by reason of any cause beyond its reasonable control. This includes any Act of God or war or terrorism, any breakdown, malfunction or failure of transmission in connection with or other unavailability of any wire, communication or computer facilities, any transport, port, or airport disruption, industrial action, acts and regulations and rules of any governmental or supra-national bodies or authorities or regulatory or self-regulatory organization or failure of any such body, authority or organization for any reason to perform its obligations.

Section 18. Ambiguous Instructions. If an Order Form otherwise in good form contains order terms that differ from the information provided in the telephone call at the time of issuance of the applicable Order Number, the Transfer Agent will attempt to contact one of the Authorized Representatives of the Authorized Participant to request confirmation of the terms of the Order. If an Authorized Representative confirms the terms as they appear in the Order, then the Order shall be accepted and processed. If an Authorized Representative contradicts the Order terms, the Order shall be deemed invalid, and a corrected Order must be received by the Transfer Agent not later than the earlier of: (a) within 15 minutes of such contact with the Authorized Representative; or (b) 45 minutes after the Order Cut-Off Time. If the Transfer Agent is not able to contact an Authorized Representative, then the Order shall be accepted and processed in accordance with its terms notwithstanding any inconsistency with the terms of the telephone information. In the event that an Order contains terms that are illegible, the Order shall be deemed invalid and the Transfer Agent will attempt to contact one of the Authorized Representatives of the Authorized Participant to request retransmission of the Order.

A corrected Order must be received by the Transfer Agent not later than the earlier of (i) within 15 minutes of such contact with the Authorized Representative or (ii) 45 minutes after the Order Cut-Off Time, as the case may be.

Section 19. Headings. Titles and section headings in this Agreement are included solely for convenient reference and are not a part of this Agreement.

Section 20. Definitions. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Procedures or, if not defined therein, in the Trust Agreement.

ORDERS FOR PURCHASE AND REDEMPTION

Section 1.01. Authorization to Purchase and Redeem Baskets. Subject to the provisions of the Authorized Participant Agreement and the Trust Agreement, during the term of the Authorized Participant Agreement the Authorized Participant will be authorized to purchase and redeem Baskets of Shares.

Section 1.02. Procedures for Orders. Each party hereto agrees to comply with the provisions of the Trust Agreement and the Authorized Participant Agreement to the extent applicable to it. The Sponsor may issue additional or other procedures from time to time relating to the manner of creating or redeeming Baskets which are not related to the Procedures, and the Authorized Participant shall comply with such procedures of which it has been notified in accordance with the Authorized Participant Agreement. All Orders are subject to the provisions of the Authorized Participant Agreement relating to unclear or ambiguous instructions.

Section 1.03. Consent to Recording. The phone lines used by the Transfer Agent or its affiliated Persons may be recorded, and the Authorized Participant hereby consents to the recording of all calls with any such Person. The Authorized Participant may reasonably request that it be provided with copies or transcripts of such recordings, and the Sponsor shall provide such copies or transcripts following such a request.

Section 1.04. Irrevocability. The Authorized Participant agrees on behalf of itself and any Authorized Participant Client that delivery to the Transfer Agent of an Order shall be irrevocable; provided that each of the Trust and the Sponsor reserves the right to reject any Order in compliance with the provisions of the Trust Agreement and the Authorized Participant Agreement.

Section 1.05. Costs and Expenses. The Authorized Participant shall be responsible for any and all expenses and costs incurred by a Fund in connection with any Orders.

Section 1.06. Delivery of Cash Amount to a Fund; Cancellation of Orders. The Authorized Participant understands and agrees that in the event the correct aggregate Cash Amount is not transferred to a Fund by the time specified in the Purchase Order and in compliance with the Procedures and the Trust Agreement, interest may be charged on the aggregate Cash Amount not transferred by such time, computed at such reasonable rate as may be specified by the Sponsor, or the Purchase Order may be cancelled by the Sponsor. The Authorized Participant will be solely responsible for all costs incurred by the Fund, the Transfer Agent or the Sponsor related to any cancelled Order.

Section 1.07. Shares Surrendered for Redemption. The Authorized Participant represents and warrants that:

S2-1

(a) it will not obtain an Order Number from the Transfer Agent for the purpose of redeeming a Basket unless it first ascertains that (i) it or any Authorized Participant Client or any other Person on whose behalf it is acting, as the case may be, owns outright or has full legal authority and legal and beneficial right to tender the Paired Shares comprising each Basket and (ii) such Paired Shares have not been loaned or pledged to another Person and are not the subject of a repurchase agreement, securities lending agreement or any other arrangement which would preclude the delivery of such securities to the Transfer Agent on the scheduled date of settlement of such redemption; and

(b) in connection with any Redemption Order, the Authorized Participant will have full power and authority to surrender to the Fund for redemption the corresponding Shares, and upon such surrender the Fund will acquire good and valid title to such Shares, free and clear of all liens, charges, duties imposed on the transfer of assets and encumbrances and not subject to any adverse claims, transferability restrictions (whether arising by operation of law or otherwise), loan, pledge, repurchase or securities lending agreements or other arrangements which would preclude the delivery of such Shares on a “regular way” basis.

Section 1.08. Rejection, Postponement or Suspension of Orders. If the Sponsor rejects an Order or postpones settlement of an Order pursuant to the Trust Agreement or the Authorized Participant Agreement, the Sponsor or the Transfer Agent will notify the Authorized Participant whose Order was rejected or postponed as soon as reasonably practicable. If the Sponsor suspends the right to submit Orders pursuant to the Trust Agreement or the Authorized Participant Agreement the Sponsor or the Transfer Agent will notify the Authorized Participants as soon as reasonably practicable.

ARTICLE II

AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVES

Section 2.01. Certification. Concurrently with the execution of the Authorized Participant Agreement, and as requested from time to time by the Sponsor or the Transfer Agent but no less frequently than annually, the Authorized Participant shall deliver to the Sponsor and the Transfer Agent a certificate in the form set forth on Schedule 3 to the Authorized Participant Agreement, signed by the Authorized Participant’s Secretary or other duly authorized official setting forth the names, e-mail addresses and telephone and facsimile numbers of all of its Authorized Representatives. Such certificate may be accepted and relied upon by the Sponsor and the Transfer Agent as conclusive evidence of the facts set forth therein and shall be considered to be in full force and effect until (i) receipt by the Sponsor and the Transfer Agent of a superseding certificate in a form approved by the Sponsor and the Transfer Agent bearing a subsequent date, or (ii) termination of the Authorized Participant Agreement.

Section 2.02. PIN Numbers. The Transfer Agent shall issue to each Authorized Participant a unique personal identification number (“PIN Number”) by which such Authorized Participant shall be identified and instructions issued by the Authorized Participant shall be authenticated. The PIN Number shall be kept confidential and only provided to Authorized Representatives. The Authorized Participant may revoke the PIN Number at any time upon

S2-2

written notice to the Transfer Agent, and the Authorized Participant shall be responsible for doing so in the event that it becomes aware that an unauthorized person has received access to its PIN Number or has or intends to use the PIN Number in an unauthorized manner. Upon receipt of such written request, the Transfer Agent shall, as promptly as practicable, de-activate the PIN Number. If an Authorized Participant’s PIN Number is changed, the new PIN Number will become effective on a date mutually agreed upon by the Authorized Participant and the Transfer Agent. The Authorized Participant agrees that, absent the Transfer Agent’s fraud, willful misconduct or failure to cancel the PIN Number as promptly as practicable following a written request to do so from the Authorized Participant or the termination of the Authorized Participant Agreement, none of the Trust, any Fund, the Sponsor, the Trustee or the Transfer Agent shall be liable for losses incurred by the Authorized Participant as a result of unauthorized use of the Authorized Participant’s PIN Number prior to the time the Authorized Participant provides notice to the Transfer Agent of the termination or revocation of authority pursuant to Section 2.03 hereof.

Section 2.03. Termination of Authority. Upon the termination or revocation of authority of an Authorized Representative by the Authorized Participant, the Authorized Participant shall (i) give immediate written notice of such fact to the Transfer Agent and such notice shall be effective upon receipt by the Transfer Agent; and (ii) request a new PIN Number. The Transfer Agent shall, as promptly as practicable, de-activate the existing PIN Number upon receipt of such written notice.

Section 2.04. Verification. The Transfer Agent may assume that all instructions issued to it using the Authorized Participant’s PIN Number have been properly placed by Authorized Representatives, unless the Transfer Agent has actual knowledge to the contrary or the Authorized Participant has revoked its PIN Number in accordance with Section 2.02 hereof. The Transfer Agent shall have no duty to verify that an Order is being placed by an Authorized Representative. The Authorized Participant agrees that none of the Trust, any Fund, the Sponsor, the Trustee or the Transfer Agent shall be responsible for any losses incurred by the Authorized Participant as a result of an Authorized Representative of an Authorized Participant identifying himself or herself as an Authorized Representative of a different Authorized Participant, or an unauthorized person identifying himself or herself as an Authorized Representative, unless the Transfer Agent previously received from the Authorized Participant written notice to revoke the PIN Number used by such Person.

ARTICLE III

STATUS OF THE AUTHORIZED PARTICIPANT

Section 3.01. Clearing Status. The Authorized Participant represents, covenants and warrants that, as of the date of execution of the Authorized Participant Agreement, and at all times during the term of the Authorized Participant Agreement, the Authorized Participant is and will be entitled to use the clearing and settlement services of each of the national or international clearing and settlement organizations through which, in compliance with the Procedures, the transactions contemplated hereby will clear and settle. Any change in the foregoing status of the Authorized Participant shall terminate the Authorized Participant Agreement and the Authorized Participant shall give prompt written notice thereof to the Sponsor and the Transfer Agent.

S2-3

Section 3.02. Broker-Dealer Status. The Authorized Participant represents and warrants that, unless Section 3.03 hereof is applicable to it, it is (i) registered as a broker-dealer under the 1934 Act, or is exempt from being, or otherwise is not required to be, so registered, (ii) qualified to act as a broker or dealer in the states or other jurisdictions where it transacts business to the extent so required by applicable law, and (iii) a member in good standing with FINRA, or is exempt from being, or otherwise is not required to be, a member of FINRA. The Authorized Participant agrees that it will maintain such registrations, qualifications, and membership in good standing and in full force and effect throughout the term of the Authorized Participant Agreement. The Authorized Participant further agrees to comply with all applicable U.S. federal laws (including, without limitation, the prospectus delivery requirements of Section 5 of the 1933 Act), the laws of any state or other jurisdiction, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder (including, without limitation, all applicable rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission), to the extent such laws and regulations are applicable to the Authorized Participant’s transactions in Shares, and with the Constitution, By-Laws and Conduct Rules of FINRA applicable to its activities as an Authorized Participant, and that it will not offer or sell Shares in any state or jurisdiction where they may not lawfully be offered and/or sold.

Section 3.03. Foreign Status. If the Authorized Participant is offering and selling Shares in jurisdictions outside the several states, territories and possessions of the United States and is not otherwise required to meet the requirements of clauses (i) through (iii) of Section 3.02 hereof, the Authorized Participant nevertheless agrees to observe the applicable laws of the jurisdiction in which such offer and/or sale is made, to comply with the full disclosure requirements of the 1933 Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder and to conduct its business in accordance with the spirit of the FINRA Conduct Rules.

Section 3.04. Compliance with Certain Laws. The Authorized Participant represents and warrants that, if it is subject to the requirements of the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001 (“Patriot Act”), the Authorized Participant is in compliance with the anti-money laundering and related provisions of the Patriot Act, or, to the extent the Authorized Participant is not subject to the Patriot Act, it has policies, procedures and internal controls in place that are substantially similar to those required under the Patriot Act.

Section 3.05. Authorized Participant Status.

(a) The Authorized Participant understands and acknowledges that the method by which Baskets will be created and Shares will be traded may raise certain issues under applicable securities laws. For example, because new Baskets may be issued and sold by a Fund on an ongoing basis, at any point a “distribution,” as such term is used in the 1933 Act, may occur. The Authorized Participant understands and acknowledges that some activities on its part, depending on the circumstances, may result in its being deemed a participant in a distribution in a manner which could render it an “underwriter” as such term is defined in Section 2(a)(11) of the 1933 Act and subject it to the prospectus delivery and liability provisions of the 1933 Act. Each Authorized Participant should review the “Plan of Distribution” portion of the applicable Fund’s Prospectus and consult with its own counsel in connection with entering into one or more Authorized Participant Agreements and placing Purchase Orders or Redemption Orders.

S2-4

(b) The Sponsor shall ensure that the Prospectus for each Fund contains an accurate and current listing of such Fund’s Authorized Participants.

ARTICLE IV

ROLE OF AUTHORIZED PARTICIPANT

Section 4.01. Independent Contractor. The Authorized Participant acknowledges and agrees that for all purposes of the Authorized Participant Agreement, the Authorized Participant will be deemed to be an independent contractor, and will have no authority to act as agent for the Trust, any Fund, the Sponsor, the Trustee or the Transfer Agent in any matter or in any respect. The Authorized Participant agrees to make itself and its employees available, upon request, during normal business hours to consult with the Transfer Agent, the Sponsor or their designees concerning the performance of the Authorized Participant’s responsibilities under the Authorized Participant Agreement; provided, however, that the Authorized Participant shall be under no obligation to divulge or otherwise disclose any information that the Authorized Participant reasonably believes (i) it is under legal obligation not to disclose, or (ii) is confidential or proprietary in nature.

Section 4.02. Rights and Obligations of DTC Participant. In executing the Authorized Participant Agreement, the Authorized Participant agrees in connection with any purchase or redemption transactions in which it acts for an Authorized Participant Client or for any other DTC Participant or Indirect DTC Participant (each as defined in the Trust Agreement), or any other Beneficial Owner that it shall extend to any such Person all of the rights, and shall be bound by all of the obligations, of a DTC Participant in addition to any obligations that it undertakes hereunder or in accordance with the Procedures.

Section 4.03. Beneficial Owner Communications. The Authorized Participant agrees, subject to any limitations arising under federal or state securities laws relating to privacy or other obligations it may have to its Authorized Participant Clients, to assist the Transfer Agent or the Sponsor in determining the ownership level of each Beneficial Owner relating to positions in Shares that the Authorized Participant may hold as record holder. In addition, the Authorized Participant agrees, in accordance with applicable laws, rules and regulations, at the request of the Sponsor or the Transfer Agent to forward to such Beneficial Owners written materials and communications received from the requesting party hereto in sufficient quantities to allow mailing thereof to such Beneficial Owners, including notices, annual reports, disclosure or other informational materials and any amendments or supplements thereto that may be required to be sent by the Sponsor or the Transfer Agent to such Beneficial Owners pursuant to the Trust Agreement or applicable law or regulation, or that the Sponsor or the Transfer Agent reasonably wishes to distribute, at its own expense, to such Beneficial Owners.

ARTICLE V

MARKETING MATERIALS AND REPRESENTATIONS

Section 5.01. Authorized Participant’s Representation. The Authorized Participant represents, warrants and agrees that it will not make, or permit any of its representatives to make, any representations concerning a Fund’s Shares other than those contained in the Fund’s then

S2-5

current Prospectus or in any promotional materials or sales literature furnished to the Authorized Participant by the Sponsor. The Authorized Participant agrees to provide each purchaser of Shares, whenever required by Rule 173 under the 1933 Act, a notice in compliance with the provisions of such Rule or a copy of the final Prospectus. The Authorized Participant agrees not to furnish or cause to be furnished to any Person or display or publish any information or materials relating to Shares (including, without limitation, promotional materials and sales literature, advertisements, press releases, announcements, statements, posters, signs or other similar materials), except such information and materials as may be furnished to the Authorized Participant by the Sponsor and such other information and materials as may be approved in writing by the Sponsor. The Authorized Participant understands that the Trust will not be advertised as offering redeemable securities, and that any advertising materials will prominently disclose that the Shares are not redeemable units of beneficial interest in the Trust or any Fund. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Authorized Participant may, without the written approval of the Sponsor, prepare and circulate in the regular course of its business reports, research or similar materials that include information, opinions or recommendations relating to Shares (i) for public dissemination; provided that such reports, research or similar materials compare the relative merits and benefits of Shares with other products and do not discuss Shares more prominently than such other products or (ii) solely for internal use by the Authorized Participant. The Authorized Participant shall file all such reports, research or similar materials with FINRA to the extent required by the FINRA Conduct Rules.

Section 5.02. Prospectus. The Sponsor will provide, or cause to be provided, to the Authorized Participant copies of the then current Prospectus for any Fund and any printed supplemental information with respect to any Fund in reasonable quantities upon request. The Sponsor will notify the Authorized Participant when a revised, supplemented or amended Prospectus for any Fund is available, and make available to the Authorized Participant copies of such revised, supplemented or amended Prospectus at such time and in such quantities as may be reasonable to permit the Authorized Participant to comply with any obligation the Authorized Participant may have to deliver such Prospectus to its Authorized Participant Clients. The Sponsor shall be deemed to have complied with this Section 5.02 when the Authorized Participant has received such revised, supplemented or amended Prospectus by e-mail, in printable form, with such number of hard copies as may be agreed from time to time by the Authorized Participant and the Sponsor promptly thereafter. For as long as the Authorized Participant Agreement is effective, the Authorized Participant agrees to be identified as an authorized participant of the Funds (a) in the section of each Fund’s Prospectus entitled “Plan of Distribution” and in any other section as may be required by the SEC and (b) on the Sponsor’s website. Upon the termination of the Authorized Participant Agreement with respect to any Fund, (x) the Sponsor shall remove such identification from the applicable Fund’s Prospectus in the amendment of either the applicable Fund’s Registration Statement or a supplement to the applicable Fund’s Prospectus, as applicable, next occurring after the date of the termination of the Authorized Participant Agreement and (y) the Sponsor shall promptly update its website to remove any identification of the Authorized Participant as an authorized participant of such Fund.

(c) The Authorized Participant shall be responsible for the payment of any transfer tax, sales or use tax, stamp tax, recording tax, value added tax and any other similar tax or government charge applicable to the creation or redemption of any Basket made pursuant to the Authorized Participant Agreement, regardless of whether or not such tax or charge is imposed directly on the Authorized Participant. To the extent the Sponsor or a Fund is required by law to pay any such tax or charge, the Authorized Participant agrees to promptly indemnify such party for any such payment, together with any applicable penalties, additions to tax or interest thereon.

Section 6.02. Limitation of Liability.

(a) In the absence of gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct, none of the Sponsor, whether acting on its own behalf or on behalf of each Trust, or the Transfer Agent shall be liable to the Authorized Participant, each other or to any other person, including any party claiming by, through or on behalf of the Authorized Participant, for any losses, liabilities, damages, costs or expenses arising out of any mistake or error in data or other information provided to any of them by each other or any other person or out of any interruption or delay in the electronic means of communications used by them. Subject to the foregoing, any references to the Transfer Agent or any Fund’s custodian herein shall not be deemed to imply, nor have such parties agreed, to undertake any obligations under this Agreement nor made any representations or warranties under this Agreement and none of such parties shall be required to advance, expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur, become exposed to or be responsible for any loss, liability, damages, costs or expenses hereunder or in connection herewith regardless of form of action or legal theory including, without limitation, any type of special, indirect or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever.

(b) In the absence of gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct by the Authorized Participant, the Authorized Participant shall not be liable to any Indemnified Party for any losses, liabilities, damages, costs or expenses arising out of (i) mistakes or errors in data or other information provided in connection with purchase or redemption transactions except for data provided by the Authorized Participant, or (ii) mistakes or errors by, or arising out of interruptions or delays of communications with, the Sponsor, the Transfer Agent or any Indemnified Party.

Section 6.03. Assets and Liabilities of the Funds. The Authorized Participant hereby acknowledges and agrees that:

(a) The assets of each Fund shall be held in separate and distinct accounts (directly or indirectly, including through a nominee or otherwise) and accounted for in such separate and distinct records separately from the other assets of the Trust and every other Fund and are referred to as “assets belonging to” that Fund. Except as otherwise set forth in the Trust Agreement, the assets belonging to a Fund shall belong only to that Fund for all purposes, and to no other Fund, and shall be subject only to the rights of creditors of that Fund. Any assets, income, earnings, profits, funds, or payments, and proceeds thereof which are not readily identifiable as belonging to any particular Fund shall be allocated to and among one or more Funds in such manner and on such basis as the Sponsor in its sole discretion deems fair and equitable. Each such allocation shall be

conclusive and binding upon the shareholders of all Funds for all purposes, and such assets, income, earnings, profits, funds, or payments, and proceeds thereof, shall be referred to as assets belonging to that Fund. The assets belonging to a Fund shall be so recorded upon the books of the Trust, and shall be held in trust for the benefit of the shareholders of such Fund. The assets belonging to a Fund shall be charged with the liabilities of such Fund and all expenses, costs, charges, indemnities and reserves attributable to such Fund.

(b) Except as otherwise set forth herein, the debts, liabilities, obligations, expenses, costs, charges, interests, claims, indemnities and reserves of any nature and all kinds and descriptions (“Claims”) incurred, contracted for, attributable to or otherwise existing with respect to a particular Fund shall be enforceable against the assets of such Fund only, and not against the assets of the Trust generally or of any other Fund and, unless otherwise provided by the Sponsor, none of the Claims incurred, contracted for, attributable to or otherwise existing with respect to the Trust generally or any other Fund shall be enforceable against the assets of such Fund. Any general Claims of the Trust which are not readily identifiable as being held with respect to any particular Fund shall be allocated and charged by the Sponsor to and among any one or more of the Funds in such manner and on such basis as the Sponsor in its sole discretion deems fair and equitable. Any Person extending credit to, contracting with or having any claim against any Fund may look only to the assets of such Fund to satisfy or enforce any Claim with respect to such Fund. No shareholder or former shareholder of any Fund shall have a claim on or any right to any assets allocated or belonging to any other Fund, except to the extent that such shareholder or former shareholder has such a claim or right hereunder as a shareholder or former shareholder of such other Fund.

Section 6.04. Survival. The provisions of this Article VI shall survive termination of the Authorized Participant Agreement.
