Exhibit (e)(2)

FOR

This Authorized Participant Agreement (the “Agreement”) is entered into by and between ALPS Portfolio Solutions Distributor, Inc. (the “Distributor”) and (the “Authorized Participant” or “AP”) and is subject to acceptance by ▇▇▇▇▇ Brothers ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ & Co. (“BBH ETF Administrator” or the “Transfer Agent”). The Transfer Agent serves as the transfer agent for USCF ETF Trust (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 Authorized Participant acknowledge and agree that the Trust shall be a third party beneficiary of this Agreement, and shall receive the benefits contemplated by this Agreement, to the extent specified herein. The Distributor has been retained to provide services as principal underwriter of the Trust acting on an agency basis in connection with the sale and distribution of shares of beneficial interest, all without par value (sometimes referred to as “shares”), of each of the separate investment portfolios of the Trust (each such portfolio a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”) named on Annex I to this Agreement.

As specified in the Trust’s Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information (“SAI”) incorporated therein (collectively, the “Prospectus”) included as part of its registration statement, as amended, on Form N-1A (“Registration Statement”), the shares of any Fund offered thereby may be purchased or redeemed only in aggregations of a specified number of shares referred to therein and herein as a “Creation Unit”. All references to “cash” shall refer to US Dollars (“USD”). The number of shares constituting a Creation Unit of each Fund is set forth in the Prospectus. Creation Units may be purchased only by or through an Authorized Participant that has entered into an Authorized Participant Agreement with the Trust and the Distributor. The Prospectus provides that Creation Units generally will be sold in exchange for an in-kind deposit of a designated portfolio of equity securities (the “Deposit Securities”) and an amount of cash computed as described in the Prospectus (the “Cash Component”), plus a purchase “Transaction Fee” as described in the Prospectus, delivered to the Trust by the Authorized Participant for its own account or acting on behalf of another party. Together, the Deposit Securities and the Cash Requirement constitute the “Creation Deposit”, which represents the minimum initial and subsequent investment amount for shares of any Fund of the Trust. References to the Prospectus are to the then current Prospectus as it may be supplemented or amended from time to time. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein are used herein as defined in the Prospectus.

This Agreement is intended to set forth certain premises and the procedures by which the Authorized Participant may purchase and/or redeem Creation Units (i) through the Continuous Net Settlement (“CNS”) clearing processes of NSCC as such processes have been enhanced to effect purchases and redemptions of Creation Units, such processes being referred to herein as the “CNS Clearing Process”, or (ii) outside the CNS Clearing Process (i.e., through the manual process of The Depository Trust Trust (“DTC”)) (“DTC Process”). The procedures for processing an order to purchase shares (each a “Purchase Order”) and an order to redeem shares (each a “Redemption Order”) are described in the Trust’s Prospectus and in Annex II to this Agreement. All Purchase and Redemption Orders must be made pursuant to the procedures set forth in the Prospectus and Annex II hereto, as each may be amended by the

Trust from time to time. An Authorized Participant may not place a Purchase Order before the fifth (5^th) Business Day (as defined below) following execution and delivery to the Distributor of this Agreement and notification by the Distributor of the Authorized Participant’s status. An Authorized Participant may not cancel a Purchase Order or a Redemption Order after an order is placed by the Authorized Participant.

The parties hereto in consideration of the premises and of the mutual

agreements contained herein agree as follows:

1.	STATUS OF AUTHORIZED PARTICIPANT.

(a) The Authorized Participant hereby represents, covenants and warrants that with respect to Purchase Orders or Redemption Orders of Creation Units of any Fund (i) through the CNS Clearing Process, it is a member of NSCC and an Authorized Participant in the CNS System of NSCC (as defined in the Fund’s Prospectus, a “Participating Party”), and/or (ii) outside the CNS Clearing Process, it is a DTC Participant (as defined in the Fund’s Prospectus, a “DTC Participant”). The Authorized Participant may place Purchase Orders or Redemption Orders for Creation Units either through the CNS Clearing Process or outside the CNS Clearing Process, subject to the procedures for purchase and redemption set forth in this Agreement, the Prospectus and Annex II hereto (“Execution of Orders”). 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 Distributor, the Trust and the Transfer Agent of such change.

(b) The Authorized Participant hereby represents and warrants that, unless the following paragraph is applicable to it, (i) it is registered as a broker-dealer under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (ii) is qualified to act as a broker or dealer in the states or other jurisdictions where it transacts business, and (iii) is a member in good standing of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”), and 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 this Agreement. The Authorized Participant agrees to comply with all applicable United States federal laws, the laws of the states or other jurisdictions concerned, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder and with the Constitution, By-Laws and Conduct Rules of FINRA, and that it will not offer or sell shares of any Fund of the Trust in any state or jurisdiction where they may not lawfully be offered and/or sold.

(c) If the Authorized Participant is offering or selling shares of any Fund of the Trust in jurisdictions outside the several states, territories and possessions of the United States (“US”) and is not otherwise required to be registered, qualified, or a member of FINRA as set forth above, the Authorized Participant nevertheless agrees (i) to observe the applicable laws of the jurisdiction in which such offer and/or sale is made, (ii) to comply with the full disclosure requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”) and the regulations promulgated thereunder and (iii) to conduct its business in accordance with the spirit of FINRA Conduct Rules.

(d) The Authorized Participant represents, covenants and warrants that it has established and presently maintains an anti-money laundering program (the “Program”) reasonably designed to prevent the Authorized Participant from being used as a conduit for money laundering or other illicit purposes or the financing of terrorist activities, and is in

compliance with the Program and all anti-money laundering laws, regulations and rules now or hereafter in effect that are applicable to it, including, without limitation, the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001.

(e) The Authorized Participant understands and acknowledges that the method by which Creation Units will be created and traded may raise certain issues under applicable securities laws. For example, because new Creation Units may be issued and sold by the Trust on an ongoing basis, at any point a “distribution”, as such term is used in the 1933 Act, may be occurring. 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 a statutory underwriter and subject it to the prospectus delivery and liability provisions of the 1933 Act. The Authorized Participant should review the “Continuous Offering” section of the SAI and consult with its own counsel in connection with entering into this Agreement and placing an Order (defined below). The Authorized Participant also understands and acknowledges that dealers who are not “underwriters” but are effecting transactions in shares, whether or not participating in the distribution of shares, are generally required to deliver a prospectus.

(f) The Authorized Participant has the capability to send and receive communications via authenticated telecommunication facility to and from the Distributor, the Custodian, the Subcustodian (in the case of funds with foreign securities “International Funds”) and the Authorized Participant’s custodian. The Authorized Participant shall confirm such capability to the satisfaction of the Distributor, the Custodian and the Subcustodian prior to placing its first Order with the BBH ETF Administrator (whether it is a Purchase Order or a Redemption Order).

2.	EXECUTION OF PURCHASE ORDERS AND REDEMPTION ORDERS.

(a) All Purchase Orders or Redemption Orders shall be made in accordance with the terms of the Prospectus and the procedures described in Annex II hereto. Each party hereto agrees to comply with the provisions of such documents to the extent such documents are applicable. It is contemplated that the telephone lines used by the BBH ETF Administrator of the Transfer Agent will be recorded, and the Authorized Participant hereby consents to the recording of all calls with the BBH ETF Administrator. The Trust reserves the right to issue additional or other procedures relating to the manner of purchasing or redeeming Creation Units and the Authorized Participant agrees to comply with such procedures as may be issued from time to time, including but not limited to the cash collateral settlement procedures that are referenced in Annex II hereto.

(b) The Authorized Participant acknowledges and agrees on behalf of itself and any party for which it is acting (whether as a customer or otherwise) that delivery of a Purchase Order or Redemption Order shall be irrevocable, provided that the Trust and the Distributor on behalf of the Trust reserve the right to reject any Purchase Order until the trade is released as “good” as described in Annex II hereto and any Redemption Order that is not in “proper form” as defined in the Prospectus.

(c) With respect to any Redemption Order, the Authorized Participant also acknowledges and agrees on behalf of itself and any party for which it is acting (whether as a customer or otherwise) to return to the Trust any dividend, distribution or other corporate

action paid to it or to the party for which it is acting in respect of any Deposit Security that is transferred to the Authorized Participant or any party for which it is acting that, based on the valuation of such Deposit Security at the time of transfer, should have been paid to the Trust. With respect to any Redemption Order, the Authorized Participant also acknowledges and agrees on behalf of itself and any party for which it is acting (whether as a customer or otherwise) that the Trust is entitled to reduce the amount of money or other proceeds due to the Authorized Participant or any party for which it is acting by an amount equal to any dividend, distribution or other corporate action to be paid to it or to the party for which it is acting in respect of any Deposit Security that is transferred to the Authorized Participant or any party for which it is acting that, based on the valuation of such Deposit Security at the time of transfer, should be paid to the Fund. With respect to any Purchase Order, the Transfer Agent, on behalf of the Trust, acknowledges and agrees to return to the Authorized Participant or any party for which it is acting any dividend, distribution or other corporate action paid to the Trust in respect of any Deposit Security that is transferred to the Trust that, based on the valuation of such Deposit Security at the time of transfer, should have been paid to the Authorized Participant or any party for which it is acting.

NSCC.

Solely with respect to Purchase Orders or Redemption Orders effected through the CNS Clearing Process, the Authorized Participant, as a Participating Party, hereby authorizes the Transfer Agent to transmit to the NSCC on behalf of the Authorized Participant such instructions, including amounts of the Deposit Securities and Cash Component as are necessary, consistent with the instructions issued by the Authorized Participant to a BBH ETF Administrator. The Authorized 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 Authorized Participant directly to NSCC.

4.	PROSPECTUS, MARKETING MATERIALS AND REPRESENTATIONS.

(a) The Distributor will provide to the Authorized Participant copies of the then current Prospectus and any printed supplemental information in reasonable quantities upon request. The Distributor represents, warrants and agrees that it will notify the Authorized Participant when a revised, supplemented or amended Prospectus for any Fund is available and deliver or otherwise make available to the Authorized Participant copies of such revised, supplemented or amended Prospectus at such time and in such numbers as to enable the Authorized Participant to comply with any obligation it may have to deliver such Prospectus to customers. The Distributor will make such revised, supplemented or amended Prospectus available to the Authorized Participant no later than its effective date. The Distributor shall be deemed to have complied with this Section 4 when the Authorized Participant has received such revised, supplemented or amended prospectus by email at [insert e-mail address], in printable form, with such number of hard copies as may be agreed from time to time by the parties promptly thereafter.

(b) The Distributor represents and warrants that (i) the Registration Statement and the Prospectus contained therein conforms in all material respects to the requirements of the 1933 Act, as amended, and the rules and regulations of the Securities Exchange Commission thereunder and do not and will not, as of the applicable effective date as to the Registration Statement and any amendment thereto and as of the applicable filing date as to the Prospectus and any amendment or supplement thereto, contain an untrue statement of a material fact or

omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading; (ii) the sale and distribution of the shares as contemplated herein will not conflict with or result in a breach or violation of any statute or any order, rule or regulation of any court or governmental agency or body having jurisdiction over the Trust, any Fund or the Distributor; and (iii) no consent, approval, authorization, order, registration or qualification of or with any such court or governmental agency or body is required for the issuance and sale of the shares, except the registration under the 1933Act of the shares.

(c) The Authorized Participant represents, warrants and agrees that it will not make any representations concerning shares other than those contained in the Trust’s then current Prospectus or in any promotional materials or sales literature furnished to the Authorized Participant by the Distributor. 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 Distributor and such other information and materials as may be approved in writing by the Distributor. The Authorized Participant understands that neither the Trust nor any of its Funds will be advertised or marketed as an open-end investment company, (i.e., as a mutual fund), which offers redeemable securities, and that any advertising materials will prominently disclose that the shares are not redeemable shares of the Trust. In addition, the Authorized Participant understands that any advertising material that addresses redemptions of shares, including the Prospectus, will disclose that the owners of shares may acquire shares and tender shares for redemption to the Trust in whole Creation Units only.

(d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Authorized Participant may without the written approval of the Distributor prepare and circulate in the regular course of its business research reports that include information, opinions or recommendations relating to shares (i) for public dissemination, provided that such research reports compare the relative merits and benefits of shares with other products and are not used for purposes of marketing shares and (ii) for internal use by the Authorized Participant.

5.	SUBCUSTODIAN ACCOUNT.

The Authorized Participant understands and agrees that in the case of each International Fund, the Trust has caused ▇▇▇▇▇ Brothers ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ & Co. acting in its capacity as the Trust’s custodian (“Custodian”) to maintain with the applicable subcustodian (“Subcustodian”) for such Fund an account in the relevant foreign jurisdiction to which the Authorized Participant shall deliver or cause to be delivered in connection with the purchase of a Creation Unit the securities and any other cash amounts (or the cash value of all or a part of such securities, in the case of a permitted or required cash purchase or “cash in lieu” amount) on behalf of itself or any party for which it is acting (whether or not a customer), with any appropriate adjustments as advised by such Fund, in accordance with the terms and conditions applicable to such account in such jurisdiction.

6.	TITLE TO SECURITIES; RESTRICTED SHARES.

The Authorized Participant represents on behalf of itself and any party for which it acts that upon delivery of a portfolio of Deposit Securities to the Custodian and/or the relevant Subcustodian in accordance with the terms of the Prospectus, the Trust will acquire good and

unencumbered title to such securities, free and clear of all liens, restrictions, charges and encumbrances and not subject to any adverse claims, including, without limitation, any restriction upon the sale or transfer of such securities imposed by (i) any agreement or arrangement entered into by the Authorized Participant or any party for which it is acting in connection with a Purchase Order or (ii) any provision of the 1933 Act, and any regulations thereunder (except that portfolio securities of issuers other than U.S. issuers shall not be required to have been registered under the 1933 Act if exempt from such registration), or of the applicable laws or regulations of any other applicable jurisdiction and (iii) no such securities are “restricted securities” as such term is used in Rule 144(a)(3)(i) promulgated under the 1933 Act.

The Authorized Participant hereby agrees that as between the Trust and itself or any party for which it acts in connection with a Purchase Order for any Domestic Fund, it will make available in same day funds for each purchase of shares an amount of cash sufficient to pay the Cash Component and any other amounts of cash due to the Trust in connection with the purchase of any Creation Unit (including the purchase Transaction Fee for in-kind and cash purchases and the additional variable charge for cash purchases (when, in the sole discretion of the Trust, cash purchases are available or specified as described in the Prospectus)) (the “Cash Amount”) which shall be made through DTC to an account maintained by the Custodian and shall be provided in same day or immediately available funds on or before the settlement date in accordance with the Trust’s Prospectus (“Contractual Settlement Date”). The Authorized Participant hereby agrees to ensure that the Cash Amount will be received by the Trust on or before the Contractual Settlement Date, and in the event payment of such Cash Amount has not been made by such Contractual Settlement Date, the Authorized Participant agrees on behalf of itself or any party for which it acts in connection with a Purchase Order to pay the full cash amount, plus interest, computed at such reasonable rate as may be specified by the Trust from time to time. The Authorized Participant may require its customer to enter into a written agreement with the Authorized Participant with respect to such matters.

8.	ROLE OF AUTHORIZED PARTICIPANT.

(a) The Authorized Participant acknowledges and agrees that for all purposes of this 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 Distributor, the Custodian, the Subcustodian, 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 Trust, the Distributor, the Custodian, the Subcustodian, or the Authorized Participant’s custodian or their designees concerning the performance of the Authorized Participant’s responsibilities under this Agreement.

(b) In executing this Agreement, the Authorized Participant agrees in connection with any purchase or redemption transactions in which it acts for a customer or for any other Authorized Participant or indirect participant, or any other shareholder in an underlying shares account (“Beneficial Owner”), that it shall extend to any such party 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 Prospectus.

(c) The Authorized Participant agrees to maintain records of all sales of shares made by or through it and to furnish copies of such records to the Trust or the Distributor upon the request of the Trust or the Distributor.

9.	AUTHORIZED PERSONS OF THE AUTHORIZED PARTICIPANT.

Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement and from time to time thereafter as may be requested by the Trust or the Distributor, the Authorized Participant shall deliver to the Distributor and the Trust, with copies to the Transfer Agent at the address specified below, duly certified as appropriate by its Secretary or other duly authorized official, a certificate in a form approved by the Trust (see Annex III to this Agreement) setting forth the names and signatures of all persons authorized to give instructions relating to any activity contemplated hereby or any other notice, request or instruction on behalf of the Authorized Participant (each such person an “Authorized Person”). Such certificate may be accepted and relied upon by the Distributor and the Trust as conclusive evidence of the facts set forth therein and shall be considered to be in full force and effect until delivery to the Distributor and the Trust of a superseding certificate in a form approved by the Trust bearing a subsequent date. Upon the termination or revocation of authority of such Authorized Person by the Authorized Participant, the Authorized Participant shall give immediate written notice of such fact to the Distributor and the Trust and such notice shall be effective upon receipt by both the Distributor and the Trust and after having reasonable opportunity to process such notice. The Distributor 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 hereunder shall be authenticated. The PIN Number shall be kept confidential and only provided to Authorized Persons. If after issuance, 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 Distributor.

10.

REDEMPTION.

The Authorized Participant understands and agrees that Redemption Orders may be submitted only on days that the US stock exchange where the shares are principally listed ( as specified in the Prospectus) (the “Listing Exchange”) is open for trading or business.

(a) The Authorized Participant represents and warrants that it will not attempt to place a Redemption Order for the purpose of redeeming any Creation Unit of any Fund unless it first ascertains that it or its customer, as the case may be, owns outright or has full legal authority and legal and beneficial right to tender for redemption the requisite number of Creation Units of the relevant Fund to be redeemed and to the entire proceeds of the redemption and that such shares have not been loaned or pledged to another party and are not the subject of a repurchase agreement, securities lending agreement or any other arrangement that would preclude the delivery of such shares to the Transfer Agent in accordance with the Prospectus or as otherwise required by the Trust. The Authorized Participant understands that shares of any Fund may be redeemed only when one or more Creation Units of a Beneficial Owner are held in the account of a single Authorized Participant.

(b) In the case of a resident Australian or New Zealand holder notwithstanding the foregoing, the Authorized Participant understands and agrees that such holder is only entitled to receive cash upon its redemption of Creation Units. In the Redemption Order the Authorized Participant will be required to confirm that an in-kind redemption request has not been submitted on behalf of a beneficial owner who is an Australian or New Zealand resident.

11.

BENEFICIAL OWNERSHIP.

(a) The Authorized Participant represents and warrants to the Distributor and the Trust that (based upon the number of outstanding shares of each such Fund made publicly available by the Trust) it does not, and will not in the future, hold for the account of any single Beneficial Owner of shares of the relevant Fund, 80 percent (80%) or more of the currently outstanding shares of such relevant Fund, so as to cause the Fund to have a basis in the portfolio securities deposited with the Fund with respect to such Fund different from the market value of such portfolio securities on the date of such deposit, pursuant to section 351 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. The Authorized Participant agrees that the confirmation relating to any order for one or more Creation Units of any Fund shall state as follows:

“Purchaser represents and warrants that, after giving effect to the purchase of shares to which this confirmation relates, it will not hold 80 percent or more of the outstanding shares of the relevant Fund of the Trust and that it will not treat such purchase as eligible for tax-free treatment under Section 351 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. If purchaser is a dealer, it agrees to deliver similar written confirmations to any person purchasing any of the shares to which this confirmation relates from it.”

(b) The Trust and its Transfer Agent and Distributor shall have the right to require information from the Authorized Participant regarding its ownership of each Fund, and to rely thereon to the extent necessary to make a determination regarding ownership of 80 percent (80%) or more of the currently outstanding shares of any Fund by a Beneficial Owner as a condition to the acceptance of a deposit of Deposit Securities.

12.

ANNEX II

AUTHORIZED PARTICIPANT AGREEMENT

FOR USCF ETF TRUST

PROCEDURES FOR PROCESSING

PURCHASE ORDERS AND REDEMPTION ORDERS

This Annex II to the Authorized Participant Agreement supplements the Prospectus with respect to the procedures to be used in processing (1) a Purchase Order for the purchase of shares of USCF ETF Trust in Creation Units of each Fund and a (2) Redemption Order for the redemption of shares of USCF ETF Trust in Creation Units of each Fund. Capitalized terms, unless otherwise defined in this Annex II, have the meanings attributed to them in the Authorized Participant Agreement or the Prospectus.

An Authorized Participant is required to have signed the Authorized Participant Agreement. Upon acceptance of the Agreement and execution thereof by the Distributor and in connection with the initial Purchase Order submitted by the Authorized Participant, the Distributor will assign a PIN Number to each Authorized Person authorized to act for an Authorized Participant. This will allow an Authorized Participant through its Authorized Person(s) to place a Purchase Order or Redemption Order with respect to the purchase or redemption of Creation Units of USCF ETF Trust.

ANNEX II — PART A

AUTHORIZED PARTICIPANT AGREEMENT

FOR USCF ETF TRUST

TO PLACE A PURCHASE ORDER FOR

CREATION UNIT(S) OF ONE OR MORE FUNDS OF

USCF ETF TRUST

1. PLACING A PURCHASE ORDER.

Purchase Orders for Creation Units of USCF ETF Trust may be initiated only on days that the Listing Exchange is open for trading (“Business Days”). Purchase Orders may only be made in whole Creation Units of each Fund.

To begin a Purchase Order, the Authorized Participant (“AP”) must telephone the BBH ETF Administrator at ( ) - or such other number as the Distributor designates in writing to the AP. This telephone call must be made by an Authorized Person of the AP not later than the closing time of the regular trading session on the Listing Exchange which is ordinarily 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time (“Listing Exchange Closing Time”). Upon verifying the authenticity of the AP (as determined by the use of the appropriate PIN Number), BBH ETF Administrator will request that the AP place the Purchase Order. To do so, the AP must provide the appropriate ticker symbols when referring to each Fund. After the AP has placed the Purchase Order, BBH ETF Administrator will read the Purchase Order back to the AP. The AP then must affirm that the Purchase Order has been taken correctly by BBH ETF Administrator. If the AP affirms that Purchase Order has been taken correctly, BBH ETF Administrator will issue a Confirmation Number to the AP.

PLEASE NOTE: A PURCHASE ORDER REQUEST IS NOT COMPLETE UNTIL THE CONFIRMATION NUMBER IS ISSUED BY BBH ETF ADMINISTRATOR. AN ORDER MAY NOT BE CANCELED BY THE AP AFTER THE CONFIRMATION NUMBER IS ISSUED. INCOMING TELEPHONE CALLS ARE QUEUED AND WILL BE HANDLED IN THE SEQUENCE RECEIVED. CALLS PLACED BEFORE THE LISTING EXCHANGE CLOSING TIME WILL BE PROCESSED EVEN IF THE CALL IS ANSWERED BY BBH ETF ADMINISTRATOR AFTER THE LISTING EXCHANGE CLOSING TIME. ACCORDINGLY, THE AP SHOULD NOT HANG UP AND REDIAL. INCOMING CALLS THAT ARE RECEIVED AFTER THE LISTING EXCHANGE CLOSING TIME WILL NOT BE ANSWERED BY BBH ETF ADMINISTRATOR. ALL TELEPHONE CALLS WILL BE RECORDED.

2. RECEIPT OF TRADE CONFIRMATION.

Subject to the conditions that a properly completed telephone Purchase Order has been placed by the AP (either on its own or its customer’s behalf) not later than the Listing Exchange Closing Time, the Transfer Agent will accept the Purchase Order on behalf of Trust and Distributor and will confirm in writing to the AP that its Purchase Order has been accepted by 4:45 p.m. Eastern Standard Time on the Business Day that the Purchase Order is received.

3. QUALITY ASSURANCE.

After a Confirmation Number is issued by BBH ETF Administrator to the AP, BBH ETF Administrator will either fax or email a written version of the Purchase Order to the AP. Upon receipt, the AP should immediately telephone Distributor, if the Participant believes that the Purchase Order has not been taken correctly by BBH ETF Administrator. In addition, BBH ETF Administrator will telephone the AP within 15 minutes of the fax or e-mail to corroborate the Purchase Order

4. PROCESSING A PURCHASE ORDER.

During the telephone call, BBH ETF Administrator will request that the AP state that the AP will not own 80% or more of the shares of any Fund upon execution of the Purchase Order. If the AP is not able to so confirm, BBH ETF Administrator has the right to not accept the Purchase Order.

5. REJECTING OR SUSPENDING PURCHASE ORDERS.

The Trust or Distributor reserve the absolute right to reject or revoke acceptance of a Purchase Order if (i) the order is not in proper form as determined by the Trust, BBH ETF Administrator or Distributor, (ii) the portfolio of Deposit Securities delivered is not as specified by Distributor; (iii) acceptance of the Deposit Securities would have certain adverse tax consequences to the Trust or any Fund; (iv) the acceptance of the Portfolio Deposit would, in the opinion of counsel to the Distributor or the Trust, be unlawful; (v) the acceptance of the Portfolio Deposit would otherwise, in the discretion of Trust or Adviser, have an adverse effect on Trust or the rights of beneficial owners of a Fund; or (vi) circumstances outside the control of Trust, Distributor, Transfer Agent or Adviser make it for all practical purposes impossible to process a Purchase Order. The Trust or the Distributor shall notify the AP of a rejection or revocation of any Purchase Order. The Trust and Distributor are under no duty, however, to give notification of any defects or irregularities in the delivery of Portfolio Deposits nor shall either of them incur any liability for the failure to give any such notification.

Except as provided herein, all Purchase Orders for Creation Units of the Trust are irrevocable by the AP. The Trust acknowledges its agreement to return to the AP or any party for which it is acting any dividend, distribution or other corporate action paid to the Trust in respect of any Deposit Security that is transferred to Trust that, based on the valuation of such Deposit Security at the time of transfer, should have been paid to the AP or any party for which it is acting.

6. CONTRACTUAL SETTLEMENT

(a) For Domestic Funds:

(1) Except as provided below, Deposit Securities must be delivered through the NSCC to a DTC account maintained at the Custodian of the Trust on or before the Domestic Contractual Settlement Date (defined below). The AP must also make available on or before the Contractual Settlement Date, by means satisfactory to Trust, immediately available or same

day funds estimated by Trust to be sufficient to pay the Cash Component next determined after acceptance of the Purchase Order, together with the applicable purchase Transaction Fee (as described in the Prospectus). Any excess funds will be returned following settlement of the issue of the Creation Unit of the Trust. The “Domestic Contractual Settlement Date” is the earlier of (i) date upon which all of the required Deposit Securities, the Cash Component and any other cash amounts which may be due are delivered to Trust and (ii) trade date plus three (t +3) Business Days. Except as provided in the next two paragraphs, a Creation Unit of any Fund will be issued concurrently with the transfer of good title to Trust of the portfolio of Deposit Securities through the NSCC’s CNS system and the payment of the Cash Component and the purchase Transaction Fee through DTC.

(2) The Trust reserves the right to permit or require the substitution of an amount of cash (i.e., a “cash in lieu” amount ) to be added to the Cash Component to replace any Deposit Security with respect to any Domestic Fund which may not be available in sufficient quantity for delivery or which may not be eligible for transfer through the CNS Clearing Process, or which may not be eligible for transfer through the systems of DTC and hence not eligible for transfer through the CNS Clearing Process and will be at the expense of the Fund and will affect the value of all shares of such Fund; but the Trust, subject to the approval of the Board, may adjust the “Transaction Fee” within the parameters described below to protect ongoing shareholders.

(3) In the event that a Creation Deposit is incomplete on the settlement date for a Creation Unit because certain or all of the Deposit Securities are missing, the Trust may issue a Creation Unit notwithstanding such deficiency in reliance on the undertaking of the AP to deliver the missing Deposit Securities as soon as possible, which undertaking shall be secured by the AP’s delivery and maintenance of collateral consisting of cash having a value at least equal to 105% of the value of the missing Deposit Securities marked to market daily. The parties hereto further agree that the Trust may purchase the missing Deposit Securities at any time and the AP agrees to accept liability for any shortfall between the cost to the Trust of purchasing such securities and the value of the collateral, provided that such cost is reasonable under the circumstances.

(b) For International Funds:

(1) Except as provided below, Deposit Securities must be delivered to an account maintained at the applicable local Subcustodian of Trust on or before the International Contractual Settlement Date (defined below). The AP must also make available on or before the International Contractual Settlement Date, by means satisfactory to Trust, immediately available or same day funds estimated by Trust to be sufficient to pay the Cash Component next determined after acceptance of the Purchase Order, together with the applicable purchase Transaction Fee. Any excess funds will be returned following settlement of the issue of the Creation Unit. The “International Contractual Settlement Date” with respect to each International Fund 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 Trust and (ii) the latest day for settlement on the customary settlement cycle in the jurisdiction(s) where the any of the securities of such International Fund are customarily traded.

(2) Except as provided in the next two paragraphs, a Creation Unit will not be issued until the transfer of good title to Trust of the portfolio of Deposit Securities and the payment of

the Cash Component and the purchase Transaction Fee have been completed. When the Subcustodian confirms to Custodian that the required securities included in the Portfolio Deposit (or, when permitted in the sole discretion of Trust, the cash value thereof) have been delivered to the account of the relevant Subcustodian, Custodian shall notify Distributor and Adviser, and Trust will issue and cause the delivery of the Creation Unit.

(3) The Trust may in its sole discretion permit or require the substitution of an amount of cash (i.e., a “cash in lieu” amount) to be added to the Cash Component to replace any Deposit Security which may not be available in sufficient quantity for delivery or for other similar reasons. If Adviser notifies Distributor that a “cash in lieu” amount will be accepted, Distributor will notify the AP and the AP shall deliver, on behalf of itself or the party on whose behalf it is acting, the “cash in lieu” amount, with any appropriate adjustments as advised by Trust. Any excess funds will be returned following settlement of the issue of the Creation Unit.

(4) In the event that a Portfolio Deposit is incomplete on the settlement date for a Creation Unit because certain or all of the Deposit Securities are missing, Trust may issue a Creation Unit notwithstanding such deficiency in reliance on the undertaking of the AP to deliver the missing Deposit Securities as soon as possible, which undertaking shall be secured by such the AP’s delivery and maintenance of collateral consisting of cash having a value at least equal to 105% of the value of the missing Deposit Securities. The parties hereto agree that the delivery of such collateral shall be made in accordance with the cash collateral settlement procedures, which such procedures shall be provided to the AP by Transfer Agent upon request. The parties hereto further agree that Trust may purchase the missing Deposit Securities at any time and the AP agrees to accept liability for any shortfall between the cost to Trust of purchasing such securities and the value of the collateral, which may be sold by Trust at such time, and in such manner, as Trust may determine in its sole discretion.

7. CASH PURCHASES

When, in the sole discretion of Trust, cash purchases of Creation Units are available or specified for a Fund, such purchases shall be effected in essentially the same manner as in-kind purchases thereof. In the case of a cash purchase, the AP must pay the cash equivalent of the Deposit Securities it would otherwise be required to provide through an in-kind purchase, plus the same Cash Component required to be paid by an in-kind purchaser. In addition, to offset Trust’s brokerage and other transaction costs associated with using the cash to purchase the requisite Deposit Securities, the AP must pay a fixed purchase Transaction Fee, plus an additional variable charge for cash purchases, which is expressed as a percentage of the value of the Deposit Securities. The Transaction Fees for in-kind and cash purchases of Creation Units are described in the Prospectus.
