accounts, carried by Barclays on behalf and in the name of Customer (each, an Account). It is understood that Customer acts through its manager, Nuveen Commodities Asset Management, LLC (NCAM or Manager), a
registered commodity pool operator, which has engaged Gresham Investment Management LLC (Gresham and Advisor), a registered commodity trading advisor, to manage Customers investments in Contracts, and in that capacity
Gresham is acting as an agent of the Customer and not as a principal.

1. APPLICABLE LAW.

Act (CEA) and all rules and interpretations of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) and the National Futures Association (NFA); (ii) the constitution, by-laws, rules,
regulations, policies, procedures, interpretations and customs of any applicable U.S. or non-U.S. board of trade, exchange, contract market, trading facility or execution facility, including, without limitation, an electronic trading system,
facility or service, or clearing organization (each, a Transaction Facility) or of any clearing firm or self-regulatory agency or organization; and (iii) any other laws, rules, interpretations, customs or usage of the trade
applicable to Customers trading of Contracts. All such laws, rules, regulations, policies, procedures, interpretations, customs and usage, as in force from time to time, are hereinafter collectively referred to as Applicable
Law.

2. GENERAL AGREEMENTS. Customer acknowledges and agrees that:

(a) Barclays Responsibility. Barclays is responsible solely for the execution, carrying and/or clearing of Contracts in each
Account in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Neither Barclays nor any managing director, officer or employee of Barclays is acting as a fiduciary or advisor in respect of Customer or any Contract or Account. Barclays shall have no
responsibility for compliance with any law or regulation governing the conduct of any fiduciary or advisor of Customer that interacts with Barclays on behalf of the Customer in connection to this Agreement. Barclays shall have no responsibility for
Customers compliance with any law or regulation governing or affecting Customers trading hereunder.

(b)
Information and Positions. Any information concerning the market or matters incidental to the operation of any of the Accounts or the nature of any of the Contracts provided by Barclays is solely incidental to the conduct of Barclays
business as an FCM. Barclays makes no representation as to the accuracy, completeness or reliability of any such information. Barclays and its managing directors, officers and employees may take, hold or liquidate positions in, or provide such
information to other customers with respect to, Contracts that are the subject of such information furnished by Barclays to Customer, and such other positions and/or information may be inconsistent with the positions held by or information given to

(c) Limitation of Barclays Liability. Barclays shall not be liable to Customer
(i) in connection with the performance or non-performance by any Transaction Facility or by any other third party (excluding Barclays Capital Inc.s affiliates or floor brokers employed by Barclays or its affiliates but including, without
limitation, floor brokers that are not employed by Barclays or its affiliates, executing agents, banks, clearing firms and other depositories) in respect of any Contract or other property of Customer; (ii) as a result of any prediction or
information concerning the market made or given by a representative of Barclays, whether or not made or given at the request of Customer; (iii) as a result of any delay in the performance or non-performance of any of Barclays obligations
hereunder directly or indirectly caused by the occurrence of any contingency beyond Barclays control including, but not limited to, the unscheduled closure of a Transaction Facility, clearing firm or other depository or delays in the
transmission of orders due to breakdowns or failures of transmission or communication facilities, Transaction Facilities or other systems, it being understood that Barclays shall be excused from performance of its obligations hereunder for such
period of time as is reasonably necessary after such occurrence to remedy the effects therefrom; (iv) as a result of any action taken by or on behalf of Barclays or its floor brokers and agents to comply with Applicable Law; (v) for any
acts or omissions of those neither employed nor supervised by Barclays; or (vi) any losses or damages suffered by Customer resulting directly or indirectly from government action, war, strike or national disaster. Neither Barclays nor its
managing directors, officers or employees shall be responsible for any loss, liability, damage or expense except to the extent that it is finally judicially determined that such loss, liability, damage or expense arises directly from its gross
negligence or willful misconduct. In no event will Barclays, its managing directors, officers or employees be liable to Customer for consequential, incidental or special damages under or relating to this Agreement.

(d) Security Interest. Except to the extent proscribed by Applicable Law not subject to waiver, all Contracts, funds, margin,
performance bond, premium, currencies, securities, credit balances and other property from time to time held by, to the order of or on behalf of Barclays or held for the benefit of the Customer by Barclays including, without limitation, by any
Transaction Facility or clearing firm through which Contracts are executed, carried and/or cleared and/or positions are held by Barclays, on behalf of the Customer, and all proceeds thereof (collectively, Collateral) are hereby
pledged to Barclays, and shall be subject to a general lien and a continuing, perfected first security interest in Barclays favor to secure any and all of Customers indebtedness or other obligations and/or liabilities owed to Barclays.
Customer agrees to execute any documents reasonably required by Barclays for the perfection or negotiation of such general lien or security interest. Customer hereby grants Barclays the right, in accordance with Applicable Law, to pledge, repledge,
transfer, hypothecate, rehypothecate, loan or invest any of the cash Collateral, including without limitation, utilizing the cash Collateral to purchase securities pursuant to repurchase agreements or reverse repurchase agreements with any
party, in each case without notice to Customer. In addition, Customer hereby grants Barclays the right, in accordance with Applicable Law, to pledge, repledge, transfer, hypothecate, or rehypothecate any of the non-cash Collateral to a
Transaction Facility or clearing firm through which transactions are executed, carried and/or cleared, in each case without notice to Customer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Customer posts Collateral in respect of a Contract
that is not eligible to be posted to the relevant Transaction Facility, Customer agrees that Barclays shall have the right to borrow, pledge, repledge, transfer, hypothecate, rehypothecate, loan or invest Collateral in accordance with Applicable
Law. Unless mutually agreed otherwise, Barclays shall pay to Customer the interest or income earned from the investment or utilization of such Collateral at a rate agreed to by the parties hereto.

(e) Conclusiveness of Reports and Objections. All written reports related to Contracts in the Accounts, including but not limited
to confirmations, purchase and sale statements and correction notices (collectively, Reports), shall be conclusive and binding on Customer unless Customer notifies Barclays of any objection prior to the opening of trading on the
Transaction Facility on or through which such Contract occurred on the business day following the day on which Customer receives such Report, except for monthly statements, which shall be conclusive and binding on Customer unless Customer notifies
Barclays of any objection within ten (10) days of the receipt thereof. Nothing herein, however, shall prevent Barclays upon discovery of any error or omission, from correcting a Report. All oral communications related to Contracts in the
Accounts with a natural person who is reasonably believed by Barclays to be associated with Gresham, NCAM or the Customer shall be conclusive and binding on Customer unless Customer notifies Barclays of any objection at the time of such
communication.

(f) Deliveries. If Customer intends to make or take delivery under any futures
Contract, Customer agrees to notify Barclays not later than the time specified by Barclays and in any event at least (i) with respect to long positions, two (2) business days prior to first notice day of the applicable Transaction
Facility, and (ii) with respect to short positions, two (2) business days prior to the last trading day for the Contract in question. With respect to any deliverable Contract, Customer shall ensure Barclays holds sufficient funds in
Customers Account to fulfill Customers obligations to make or take delivery and shall furnish Barclays with property deliverable by Customer under any Contract in accordance with Barclays directions. If Customer fails to comply
with any of the foregoing obligations, Barclays may, at its discretion and upon Barclays good faith effort to notify Customer, liquidate and/or roll forward to a later delivery month any open Contracts, make or receive delivery of any
commodities or instruments for Customers Account and risk, and in such manner and on such terms as Barclays in its reasonable discretion deems necessary or appropriate. Customer shall remain fully liable for, and Customers Account will
be debited for, any loss, costs, expenses and liabilities incurred by Barclays in connection with such Contracts and for any remaining debit balance in Customers Account. Barclays acknowledges that Customer intends to settle all of its
obligations under futures and options contracts carried in Customers Account(s) by closing such contracts with an opposite and offsetting trade or by cash settlement where such contracts are assigned a delivery notice, except in the case of
delivery where the rules of the exchange or clearing house or applicable law prohibit cash settlement.

(g) Options Exercise
and Allocation Procedure. If Customer intends to exercise any option Contract, Customer agrees to notify Barclays not later than the time specified by Barclays and in any event at least one hour prior to the latest notification time specified by
the relevant Transaction Facility. If Customer fails to comply with any of the foregoing, Barclays may, at its discretion and upon Barclays good faith effort to notify Customer, exercise or allow the expiration of any options for
Customers Account and risk, and in such manner and on such terms as Barclays in its discretion deems necessary or appropriate. Customer shall remain fully liable for, and Customers Account will be debited for, any loss, costs, expenses
and liabilities incurred by Barclays in connection with such Contracts and for any remaining debit balance in Customers Account. Customer understands and acknowledges that certain option Contracts sold by Customer may be subject to exercise at
any time. Exercise notices received by Barclays with respect to option Contracts sold by Barclays customers shall be allocated among customers (including Customer) pursuant to a random allocation procedure, and Customer shall be bound by any
such allocation made to it. Information regarding Barclays random allocation procedure is available upon request. Such notices may be allocated to Customer after the close of trading on the day on which such notices have been allocated to
Barclays by the applicable Transaction Facility. In the event of the allocation of an exercise notice(s) to Customer, Barclays shall use reasonable efforts to notify Customer promptly. Barclays shall have no responsibility for any action it takes or
fails to take with respect to any option Contract (and, without limiting the foregoing, shall have no responsibility to exercise any option Contract purchased by Customer) unless and until Barclays receives acceptable and timely instructions from
Customer indicating the action to be taken.

(h) Acceptance of Orders; Position Limits. Barclays shall have the right,
upon prior notice to Customer, whenever in its discretion it deems it appropriate, (i) to limit the number of open Contracts (net or gross) that Barclays will at any time execute, clear and/or carry for Customer, (ii) to require Customer
to reduce open positions carried with Barclays, and (iii) to refuse the acceptance of orders to establish new positions. Barclays shall immediately notify Customer of its rejection of any order. Unless specified by Customer, Barclays may
designate the Transaction Facilities (including, without limitation, any electronic trading systems or facilities) on or through which it will attempt to execute orders. Customer shall comply at all times, including throughout the trading day, with
all position limit rules imposed by Applicable Law.

(i) Liquidation of Offsetting Positions. Barclays shall liquidate
any Contract for which an offsetting order is entered by Customer, unless Customer instructs Barclays not to liquidate such Contract and to maintain the offsetting Contracts as open positions, provided, however, that Barclays shall not be obligated
to comply with any such instructions given by Customer if Customer fails to provide Barclays with any representations, documentation or information reasonably requested by Barclays or if, in Barclays reasonable judgment, any failure to
liquidate such offsetting Contracts against each other would result in a violation of Applicable Law.

(j) Reliance on
Instructions. Barclays and its managing directors, officers and employees shall be entitled to rely, and shall not be liable for any reliance, on any instruction, notice or communication that it reasonably believes to have originated from
Customer or Customers duly authorized agent (including a third-party advisor, if any), and Customer shall be bound thereby.

(k) Use of Clearing Brokers. Customer authorizes Barclays in its discretion to select
for and on behalf of Customer floor brokers and execution agents and, on Transaction Facilities where Barclays is not a clearing member, unaffiliated clearing brokers, which will act as brokers and agents of Customer in connection with Contracts for
the Account(s). Such Contracts may be cleared through accounts maintained by Barclays in its own name with one or more clearing brokers.

(l) Give-Ups. Absent a separate written agreement with Customer with respect to give-ups, Barclays, in its discretion, may, but shall not be obligated to, accept from other brokers Contracts
executed by such brokers for Customer and to be given up to Barclays for clearance or carrying in an Account.

(m) Financial
and Other Information. Customer shall provide to Barclays such financial and other information regarding Customer as Barclays may from time to time reasonably request. Customer authorizes Barclays to contact such banks, financial institutions
and credit agencies as Barclays shall deem appropriate from time to time for verification of such information. Customer shall notify Barclays promptly of any material adverse change to its condition, financial or otherwise. Customer acknowledges and
agrees that Barclays may provide financial and other information regarding Customer to any Transaction Facility, clearing firm or self-regulatory agency or organization upon the request of any such entity and as permitted by Applicable Law.

(n) Currency Exchange Risk. Customer shall bear all risk and cost in respect of the conversion of currencies incident
to Contracts effected on behalf of Customer pursuant hereto. Unless otherwise specified in the Reports sent to Customer with respect to its Contracts and Accounts, all margin deposits in connection with any Contracts, and any debits or credits to
Customers Account(s), shall be stated in U.S. Dollars. By placing an order in a Contract settled in a particular currency (the Contract Currency), Customer agrees to convert to the Contract Currency funds sufficient to meet the
applicable margin requirement. Any conversions of currency shall be at a rate of exchange reasonably determined by Barclays based on prevailing money market rates of exchange for such currencies.

(o) Consent to Recording. Each party (i) consents to the monitoring or recording, at any time and from time to time, by the
other party of any and all communications between officers or employees of the parties, with or without the use of an automatic tone warning device (ii) waives any further notice of such monitoring or recording, and (iii) agrees to notify
(and, if required by law, obtain the consent of) its officers and employees with respect to such monitoring or recording. The parties agree that any such recording may be submitted in evidence to any court or in any proceeding for the purpose of
establishing any matters pertinent to this Agreement or any Contract.

(p) Inactive Accounts. Customer acknowledges that
Barclays may from time to time place accounts in which there is no trading on inactive status and Customer agrees to provide whatever reasonably requested information Barclays may require upon Customers request to reactivate any such inactive
Account.
