2002 MASTER AGREEMENT 

dated as of 28 December, 2016 
 Merrill
Lynch International                    
and                    SPDR® Long Dollar Gold Trust, a series of 

                          
                                         
                            World Currency Gold Trust 

have entered and/or anticipate entering into one or more transactions (each a “Transaction”) that are or will be governed by this 2002 Master
Agreement, which includes the schedule (the “Schedule”), and the documents and other confirming evidence (each a “Confirmation”) exchanged between the parties or otherwise effective for the purpose of confirming or evidencing
those Transactions. This 2002 Master Agreement and the Schedule are together referred to as this “Master Agreement”. 
 Accordingly, the parties
agree as follows:— 
 1. Interpretation 
 (a)
Definitions. The terms defined in Section 14 and elsewhere in this Master Agreement will have the meanings therein specified for the purpose of this Master Agreement. 

(b) Inconsistency. In the event of any inconsistency between the provisions of the Schedule and the other provisions of this Master Agreement,
the Schedule will prevail. In the event of any inconsistency between the provisions of any Confirmation and this Master Agreement, such Confirmation will prevail for the purpose of the relevant Transaction. 

(c) Single Agreement. All Transactions are entered into in reliance on the fact that this Master Agreement and all Confirmations form a single
agreement between the parties (collectively referred to as this “Agreement”), and the parties would not otherwise enter into any Transactions. 

2. Obligations 
 (a) General Conditions.

 (i) Each party will make each payment or delivery specified in each Confirmation to be made by it, subject to the other provisions of this
Agreement. 
 (ii) Payments under this Agreement will be made on the due date for value on that date in the place of the account specified in
the relevant Confirmation or otherwise pursuant to this Agreement, in freely transferable funds and in the manner customary for payments in the required currency. Where settlement is by delivery (that is, other than by payment), such delivery will
be made for receipt on the due date in the manner customary for the relevant obligation unless otherwise specified in the relevant Confirmation or elsewhere in this Agreement.

 (iii) Each obligation of each party under Section 2(a)(i) is subject to (1) the condition
precedent that no Event of Default or Potential Event of Default with respect to the other party has occurred and is continuing, (2) the condition precedent that no Early Termination Date in respect of the relevant Transaction has occurred or been
effectively designated and (3) each other condition specified in this Agreement to be a condition precedent for the purpose of this Section 2(a)(iii). 

(b) Change of Account. Either party may change its account for receiving a payment or delivery by giving notice to the other party at least five
Local Business Days prior to the Scheduled Settlement Date for the payment or delivery to which such change applies unless such other party gives timely notice of a reasonable objection to such change. 

(c) Netting of Payments. If on any date amounts would otherwise be payable:— 

(i) in the same currency; and 

(ii) in respect of the same Transaction, 
 by
each party to the other, then, on such date, each party’s obligation to make payment of any such amount will be automatically satisfied and discharged and, if the aggregate amount that would otherwise have been payable by one party exceeds the
aggregate amount that would otherwise have been payable by the other party, replaced by an obligation upon the party by which the larger aggregate amount would have been payable to pay to the other party the excess of the larger aggregate amount
over the smaller aggregate amount. 
 The parties may elect in respect of two or more Transactions that a net amount and payment obligation will be
determined in respect of all amounts payable on the same date in the same currency in respect of those Transactions, regardless of whether such amounts are payable in respect of the same Transaction. The election may be made in the Schedule or any
Confirmation by specifying that “Multiple Transaction Payment Netting” applies to the Transactions identified as being subject to the election (in which case clause (ii) above will not apply to such Transactions). If Multiple
Transaction Payment Netting is applicable to Transactions, it will apply to those Transactions with effect from the starting date specified in the Schedule or such Confirmation, or, if a starting date is not specified in the Schedule or such
Confirmation, the starting date otherwise agreed by the parties in writing. This election may be made separately for different groups of Transactions and will apply separately to each pairing of Offices through which the parties make and receive
payments or deliveries. 
 (d) Deduction or Withholding for Tax. 

(i) Gross-Up. All payments under this Agreement will be made without any deduction or withholding for or on account of any Tax
unless such deduction or withholding is required by any applicable law, as modified by the practice of any relevant governmental revenue authority, then in effect. If a party is so required to deduct or withhold, then that party (“X”)
will:— 
 (1) promptly notify the other party (“Y”) of such requirement; 

(2) pay to the relevant authorities the full amount required to be deducted or withheld (including the full amount required to be deducted or
withheld from any additional amount paid by X to Y under this Section 2(d)) promptly upon the earlier of determining that such deduction or withholding is required or receiving notice that such amount has been assessed against Y; 

(3) promptly forward to Y an official receipt (or a certified copy), or other documentation reasonably acceptable to Y, evidencing such payment
to such authorities; and

 (4) if such Tax is an Indemnifiable Tax, pay to Y, in addition to the payment to which Y is
otherwise entitled under this Agreement, such additional amount as is necessary to ensure that the net amount actually received by Y (free and clear of Indemnifiable Taxes, whether assessed against X or Y) will equal the full amount Y would have
received had no such deduction or withholding been required. However, X will not be required to pay any additional amount to Y to the extent that it would not be required to be paid but for:— 

(A) the failure by Y to comply with or perform any agreement contained in Section 4(a)(i), 4(a)(iii) or 4(d); or 

(B) the failure of a representation made by Y pursuant to Section 3(f) to be accurate and true unless such failure would not have
occurred but for (I) any action taken by a taxing authority, or brought in a court of competent jurisdiction, after a Transaction is entered into (regardless of whether such action is taken or brought with respect to a party to this Agreement)
or (II) a Change in Tax Law. 
 (ii) Liability. If:— 

(1) X is required by any applicable law, as modified by the practice of any relevant governmental revenue authority, to make any deduction or
withholding in respect of which X would not be required to pay an additional amount to Y under Section 2(d)(i)(4); 
 (2) X does not so
deduct or withhold; and 
 (3) a liability resulting from such Tax is assessed directly against X, 

then, except to the extent Y has satisfied or then satisfies the liability resulting from such Tax, Y will promptly pay to X the amount of such
liability (including any related liability for interest, but including any related liability for penalties only if Y has failed to comply with or perform any agreement contained in Section 4(a)(i), 4(a)(iii) or 4(d)). 

3. Representations 
 Each party makes the representations
contained in Sections 3(a), 3(b), 3(c), 3(d), 3(e) and 3(f) and, if specified in the Schedule as applying, 3(g) to the other party (which representations will be deemed to be repeated by each party on each date on which a Transaction is entered into
and, in the case of the representations in Section 3(f), at all times until the termination of this Agreement). If any “Additional Representation” is specified in the Schedule or any Confirmation as applying, the party or parties
specified for such Additional Representation will make and, if applicable, be deemed to repeat such Additional Representation at the time or times specified for such Additional Representation. 

(a) Basic Representations.

(ii) Powers. It has the power to execute this Agreement and any other documentation relating to this Agreement to which it is a
party, to deliver this Agreement and any other documentation relating to this Agreement that it is required by this Agreement to deliver and to perform its obligations under this Agreement and any obligations it has under any Credit Support Document
to which it is a party and has taken all necessary action to authorise such execution, delivery and performance; 

  

					
		  	3	  	ISDA® 2002









 (iii) No Violation or Conflict. Such execution, delivery and performance do not
violate or conflict with any law applicable to it, any provision of its constitutional documents, any order or judgment of any court or other agency of government applicable to it or any of its assets or any contractual restriction binding on or
affecting it or any of its assets; 
 (iv) Consents. All governmental and other consents that are required to have been
obtained by it with respect to this Agreement or any Credit Support Document to which it is a party have been obtained and are in full force and effect and all conditions of any such consents have been complied with; and 

(v) Obligations Binding. Its obligations under this Agreement and any Credit Support Document to which it is a party constitute
its legal, valid and binding obligations, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms (subject to applicable bankruptcy, reorganisation, insolvency, moratorium or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject, as to
enforceability, to equitable principles of general application (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law)). 
 (b)
Absence of Certain Events. No Event of Default or Potential Event of Default or, to its knowledge, Termination Event with respect to it has occurred and is continuing and no such event or circumstance would occur as a result of its
entering into or performing its obligations under this Agreement or any Credit Support Document to which it is a party. 
 (c) Absence of
Litigation. There is not pending or, to its knowledge, threatened against it, any of its Credit Support Providers or any of its applicable Specified Entities any action, suit or proceeding at law or in equity or before any court, tribunal,
governmental body, agency or official or any arbitrator that is likely to affect the legality, validity or enforceability against it of this Agreement or any Credit Support Document to which it is a party or its ability to perform its obligations
under this Agreement or such Credit Support Document. 
 (d) Accuracy of Specified Information. All applicable information that is furnished
in writing by or on behalf of it to the other party and is identified for the purpose of this Section 3(d) in the Schedule is, as of the date of the information, true, accurate and complete in every material respect. 

(e) Payer Tax Representation. Each representation specified in the Schedule as being made by it for the purpose of this Section 3(e) is
accurate and true. 
 (f) Payee Tax Representations. Each representation specified in the Schedule as being made by it for the purpose of this
Section 3(f) is accurate and true.

 4. Agreements 

Each party agrees with the other that, so long as either party has or may have any obligation under this Agreement or under any Credit Support Document to
which it is a party:— 
 (a) Furnish Specified Information. It will deliver to the other party or, in certain cases under clause (iii)
below, to such government or taxing authority as the other party reasonably directs:— 
 (i) any forms, documents or certificates
relating to taxation specified in the Schedule or any Confirmation;

 (iii) upon reasonable demand by such other party, any form or document that may be required or
reasonably requested in writing in order to allow such other party or its Credit Support Provider to make a payment under this Agreement or any applicable Credit Support Document without any deduction or withholding for or on account of any Tax or
with such deduction or withholding at a reduced rate (so long as the completion, execution or submission of such form or document would not materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of the party in receipt of such demand), with any such
form or document to be accurate and completed in a manner reasonably satisfactory to such other party and to be executed and to be delivered with any reasonably required certification, 

in each case by the date specified in the Schedule or such Confirmation or, if none is specified, as soon as reasonably practicable. 

(b) Maintain Authorisations. It will use all reasonable efforts to maintain in full force and effect all consents of any governmental or other
authority that are required to be obtained by it with respect to this Agreement or any Credit Support Document to which it is a party and will use all reasonable efforts to obtain any that may become necessary in the future. 

(c) Comply With Laws. It will comply in all material respects with all applicable laws and orders to which it may be subject if failure so to
comply would materially impair its ability to perform its obligations under this Agreement or any Credit Support Document to which it is a party. 
 (d)
Tax Agreement. It will give notice of any failure of a representation made by it under Section 3(f) to be accurate and true promptly upon learning of such failure. 

(e) Payment of Stamp Tax. Subject to Section 11, it will pay any Stamp Tax levied or imposed upon it or in respect of its execution or
performance of this Agreement by a jurisdiction in which it is incorporated, organised, managed and controlled or considered to have its seat, or where an Office through which it is acting for the purpose of this Agreement is located (“Stamp
Tax Jurisdiction”), and will indemnify the other party against any Stamp Tax levied or imposed upon the other party or in respect of the other party’s execution or performance of this Agreement by any such Stamp Tax Jurisdiction which is
not also a Stamp Tax Jurisdiction with respect to the other party. 
 5. Events of Default and Termination Events 

(a) Events of Default. The occurrence at any time with respect to a party or, if applicable, any Credit Support Provider of such party or any
Specified Entity of such party of any of the following events constitutes (subject to Sections 5(c) and 6(e)(iv)) an event of default (an “Event of Default”) with respect to such party:— 

(i) Failure to Pay or Deliver. Failure by the party to make, when due, any payment under this Agreement or delivery under
Section 2(a)(i) or 9(h)(i)(2) or (4) required to be made by it if such failure is not remedied on or before the first Local Business Day in the case of any such payment or the first Local Delivery Day in the case of any such delivery
after, in each case, notice of such failure is given to the party; 
 (ii) Breach of Agreement; Repudiation of Agreement. 

(1) Failure by the party to comply with or perform any agreement or obligation (other than an obligation to make any payment under this
Agreement or delivery under Section 2(a)(i) or 9(h)(i)(2) or (4) or to give notice of a Termination Event or any agreement or obligation under Section 4(a)(i), 4(a)(iii) or 4(d)) to be complied with or performed by the party in
accordance with this Agreement if such failure is not remedied within 30 days after notice of such failure is given to the party; or 
 (2)
the party disaffirms, disclaims, repudiates or rejects, in whole or in part, or challenges the validity of, this Master Agreement, any Confirmation executed and delivered by that party or any 

Transaction evidenced by such a Confirmation (or such action is taken by any person or entity appointed or empowered to operate it or act on
its behalf);

or performed by it in accordance with any Credit Support Document if such failure is continuing after any applicable grace period has elapsed; 

(2) the expiration or termination of such Credit Support Document or the failing or ceasing of such Credit Support Document, or any security
interest granted by such party or such Credit Support Provider to the other party pursuant to any such Credit Support Document, to be in full force and effect for the purpose of this Agreement (in each case other than in accordance with its terms)
prior to the satisfaction of all obligations of such party under each Transaction to which such Credit Support Document relates without the written consent of the other party; or 

(3) the party or such Credit Support Provider disaffirms, disclaims, repudiates or rejects, in whole or in part, or challenges the validity of,
such Credit Support Document (or such action is taken by any person or entity appointed or empowered to operate it or act on its behalf); 

(iv) Misrepresentation. A representation (other than a representation under Section 3(e) or 3(f)) made or repeated or deemed
to have been made or repeated by the party or any Credit Support Provider of such party in this Agreement or any Credit Support Document proves to have been incorrect or misleading in any material respect when made or repeated or deemed to have been
made or repeated; 
 (v) Default Under Specified Transaction. The party, any Credit Support Provider of such party or any
applicable Specified Entity of such party:— 
 (1) defaults (other than by failing to make a delivery) under a Specified Transaction or

of, that Specified Transaction; 
 (2) defaults, after giving effect to any applicable notice requirement or grace period, in making any
payment due on the last payment or exchange date of, or any payment on early termination of, a Specified Transaction (or, if there is no applicable notice requirement or grace period, such default continues for at least one Local Business Day); 

(3) defaults in making any delivery due under (including any delivery due on the last delivery or exchange date of) a Specified Transaction or

described) in respect of such party, any Credit Support Provider of such party or any applicable Specified Entity of such party under one or more agreements or instruments relating to Specified Indebtedness of any of them (individually or
collectively) where the aggregate principal amount of such agreements or instruments, either alone or together with the amount, if any, referred to in clause (2) below, is not less than the applicable Threshold Amount (as specified in the
Schedule) which has resulted in such Specified Indebtedness becoming, or becoming capable at such time of being declared, due and payable under such agreements or instruments before it would otherwise have been due and payable; or 

(2) a default by such party, such Credit Support Provider or such Specified Entity (individually or collectively) in making one or more

 (viii) Merger Without Assumption. The party or any Credit Support Provider of such
party consolidates or amalgamates with, or merges with or into, or transfers all or substantially all its assets to, or reorganises, reincorporates or reconstitutes into or as, another entity and, at the time of such consolidation, amalgamation,
merger, transfer, reorganisation, reincorporation or reconstitution:— 
 (1) the resulting, surviving or transferee entity fails to
assume all the obligations of such party or such Credit Support Provider under this Agreement or any Credit Support Document to which it or its predecessor was a party; or 

(2) the benefits of any Credit Support Document fail to extend (without the consent of the other party) to the performance by such resulting,
surviving or transferee entity of its obligations under this Agreement. 
 (b) Termination Events. The occurrence at any time with respect to a
party or, if applicable, any Credit Support Provider of such party or any Specified Entity of such party of any event specified below constitutes (subject to Section 5(c)) an Illegality if the event is specified in clause (i) below, a
Force Majeure Event if the event is specified in clause (ii) below, a Tax Event if the event is specified in clause (iii) below, a Tax Event Upon Merger if the event is specified in clause (iv) below, and, if specified to be
applicable, a Credit Event Upon Merger if the event is specified pursuant to clause (v) below or an Additional Termination Event if the event is specified pursuant to clause (vi) below:— 

(i) Illegality. After giving effect to any applicable provision, disruption fallback or remedy specified in, or pursuant to, the
relevant Confirmation or elsewhere in this Agreement, due to an event or circumstance (other than any action taken by a party or, if applicable, any Credit Support Provider of such party) occurring after a Transaction is entered into, it becomes
unlawful under any applicable law (including without limitation the laws of any country in which payment, delivery or compliance is required by either party or any Credit Support Provider, as the case may be), on any day, or it would be unlawful if
the relevant payment, delivery or compliance were required on that day (in each case, other than as a result of a breach by the party of Section 4(b)):— 

(1) for the Office through which such party (which will be the Affected Party) makes and receives payments or deliveries with respect to such
Transaction to perform any absolute or contingent obligation to make a payment or delivery in respect of such Transaction, to receive a payment or delivery in respect of such Transaction or to comply with any other material provision of this
Agreement relating to such Transaction; or 
 (2) for such party or any Credit Support Provider of such party (which will be the Affected
Party) to perform any absolute or contingent obligation to make a payment or delivery which such party or Credit Support Provider has under any Credit Support Document relating to such Transaction, to receive a payment or delivery under such Credit
Support Document or to comply with any other material provision of such Credit Support Document; 
 (ii) Force Majeure Event.
After giving effect to any applicable provision, disruption fallback or remedy specified in, or pursuant to, the relevant Confirmation or elsewhere in this Agreement, by reason of force majeure or act of state occurring after a Transaction is
entered into, on any day:— 
 (1) the Office through which such party (which will be the Affected Party) makes and receives payments or
deliveries with respect to such Transaction is prevented from performing any absolute or contingent obligation to make a payment or delivery in respect of such Transaction, from receiving a payment or delivery in respect of such Transaction or from
complying with any other material provision of this Agreement relating to such Transaction (or would be so prevented if such payment, delivery or compliance were required on that day), or it becomes impossible or


  

					
		  	8	  	ISDA® 2002









 
impracticable for such Office so to perform, receive or comply (or it would be impossible or impracticable for such Office so to perform, receive or comply if such payment, delivery or compliance
were required on that day); or 
 (2) such party or any Credit Support Provider of such party (which will be the Affected Party) is prevented
from performing any absolute or contingent obligation to make a payment or delivery which such party or Credit Support Provider has under any Credit Support Document relating to such Transaction, from receiving a payment or delivery under such
Credit Support Document or from complying with any other material provision of such Credit Support Document (or would be so prevented if such payment, delivery or compliance were required on that day), or it becomes impossible or impracticable for
such party or Credit Support Provider so to perform, receive or comply (or it would be impossible or impracticable for such party or Credit Support Provider so to perform, receive or comply if such payment, delivery or compliance were required on
that day), 
 so long as the force majeure or act of state is beyond the control of such Office, such party or such Credit Support Provider,
as appropriate, and such Office, party or Credit Support Provider could not, after using all reasonable efforts (which will not require such party or Credit Support Provider to incur a loss, other than immaterial, incidental expenses), overcome such
prevention, impossibility or impracticability; 
 (iii) Tax Event. Due to (1) any action taken by a taxing authority, or
brought in a court of competent jurisdiction, after a Transaction is entered into (regardless of whether such action is taken or brought with respect to a party to this Agreement) or (2) a Change in Tax Law, the party (which will be the
Affected Party) will, or there is a substantial likelihood that it will, on the next succeeding Scheduled Settlement Date (A) be required to pay to the other party an additional amount in respect of an Indemnifiable Tax under Section 2(d)(i)(4)
(except in respect of interest under Section 9(h)) or (B) receive a payment from which an amount is required to be deducted or withheld for or on account of a Tax (except in respect of interest under Section 9(h)) and no additional
amount is required to be paid in respect of such Tax under Section 2(d)(i)(4) (other than by reason of Section 2(d)(i)(4)( A) or (B)); 

(iv) Tax Event Upon Merger. The party (the “Burdened Party”) on the next succeeding Scheduled Settlement Date will
either (1) be required to pay an additional amount in respect of an Indemnifiable Tax under Section 2(d)(i)(4) (except in respect of interest under Section 9(h)) or (2) receive a payment from which an amount has been deducted or
withheld for or on account of any Tax in respect of which the other party is not required to pay an additional amount (other than by reason of Section 2(d)(i)(4)(A) or (B)), in either case as a result of a party consolidating or amalgamating
with, or merging with or into, or transferring all or substantially all its assets (or any substantial part of the assets comprising the business conducted by it as of the date of this Master Agreement) to, or reorganising, reincorporating or
reconstituting into or as, another entity (which will be the Affected Party) where such action does not constitute a Merger Without Assumption; 

(v) Credit Event Upon Merger. If “Credit Event Upon Merger” is specified in the Schedule as applying to the party, a
Designated Event (as defined below) occurs with respect to such party, any Credit Support Provider of such party or any applicable Specified Entity of such party (in each case, “X”) and such Designated Event does not constitute a Merger
Without Assumption, and the creditworthiness of X or, if applicable, the successor, surviving or transferee entity of X, after taking into account any applicable Credit Support Document, is materially weaker immediately after the occurrence of such
Designated Event than that of X immediately prior to the occurrence of such Designated Event (and, in any such event, such party or its successor, surviving or transferee entity, as appropriate, will be the Affected Party). A “Designated
Event” with respect to X means that:— 
 (1) X consolidates or amalgamates with, or merges with or into, or transfers all or
substantially all its assets (or any substantial part of the assets comprising the business conducted by X as of the date of this Master Agreement) to, or reorganises, reincorporates or reconstitutes into or as, another entity; 

  

					
		  	9	  	ISDA® 2002









 (2) any person, related group of persons or entity acquires directly or indirectly the beneficial
ownership of (A) equity securities having the power to elect a majority of the board of directors (or its equivalent) of X or (B) any other ownership interest enabling it to exercise control of X; or 

(3) X effects any substantial change in its capital structure by means of the issuance, incurrence or guarantee of debt or the issuance of
(A) preferred stock or other securities convertible into or exchangeable for debt or preferred stock or (B) in the case of entities other than corporations, any other form of ownership interest; or 

(vi) Additional Termination Event. If any “Additional Termination Event” is specified in the Schedule or any
Confirmation as applying, the occurrence of such event (and, in such event, the Affected Party or Affected Parties will be as specified for such Additional Termination Event in the Schedule or such Confirmation). 

(c) Hierarchy of Events. 
 (i) An
event or circumstance that constitutes or gives rise to an Illegality or a Force Majeure Event will not, for so long as that is the case, also constitute or give rise to an Event of Default under Section 5(a)(i), 5(a)(ii)(l) or 5(a)(iii)(l)
insofar as such event or circumstance relates to the failure to make any payment or delivery or a failure to comply with any other material provision of this Agreement or a Credit Support Document, as the case may be. 

(ii) Except in circumstances contemplated by clause (i) above, if an event or circumstance which would otherwise constitute or give rise
to an Illegality or a Force Majeure Event also constitutes an Event of Default or any other Termination Event, it will be treated as an Event of Default or such other Termination Event, as the case may be, and will not constitute or give rise to an
Illegality or a Force Majeure Event. 
 (iii) If an event or circumstance which would otherwise constitute or give rise to a Force Majeure
Event also constitutes an Illegality, it will be treated as an Illegality, except as described in clause (ii) above, and not a Force Majeure Event. 

(d) Deferral of Payments and Deliveries During Waiting Period. If an Illegality or a Force Majeure Event has occurred and is continuing with
respect to a Transaction, each payment or delivery which would otherwise be required to be made under that Transaction will be deferred to, and will not be due until:— 

(i) the first Local Business Day or, in the case of a delivery, the first Local Delivery Day (or the first day that would have been a Local
Business Day or Local Delivery Day, as appropriate, but for the occurrence of the event or circumstance constituting or giving rise to that Illegality or Force Majeure Event) following the end of any applicable Waiting Period in respect of that
Illegality or Force Majeure Event, as the case may be; or 
 (ii) if earlier, the date on which the event or circumstance constituting or
giving rise to that Illegality or Force Majeure Event ceases to exist or, if such date is not a Local Business Day or, in the case of a delivery, a Local Delivery Day, the first following day that is a Local Business Day or Local Delivery Day, as
appropriate. 
 (e) Inability of Head or Home Office to Perform Obligations of Branch. If (i) an Illegality or a Force Majeure Event
occurs under Section 5(b)(i)(l) or 5(b)(ii)(l) and the relevant Office is not the Affected Party’s head or home office, (ii) Section 10(a) applies, (iii) the other party seeks performance of the relevant obligation or 

  

					
		  	10	  	ISDA® 2002









 compliance with the relevant provision by the Affected Party’s head or home office and (iv) the
Affected Party’s head or home office fails so to perform or comply due to the occurrence of an event or circumstance which would, if that head or home office were the Office through which the Affected Party makes and receives payments and
deliveries with respect to the relevant Transaction, constitute or give rise to an Illegality or a Force Majeure Event, and such failure would otherwise constitute an Event of Default under Section 5(a)(i) or 5(a)(iii)(l) with respect to such
party, then, for so long as the relevant event or circumstance continues to exist with respect to both the Office referred to in Section 5(b)(i)(l) or 5(b)(ii)(l), as the case may be, and the Affected Party’s head or home office, such
failure will not constitute an Event of Default under Section 5(a)(i) or 5(a)(iii)(l). 
 6. Early Termination; Close-Out Netting 

(a) Right to Terminate Following Event of Default. If at any time an Event of Default with respect to a party (the “Defaulting Party”)
has occurred and is then continuing, the other party (the “Non-defaulting Party”) may, by not more than 20 days notice to the Defaulting Party specifying the relevant Event of Default, designate a day not earlier than the day such notice
is effective as an Early Termination Date in respect of all outstanding Transactions. If, however, “Automatic Early Termination” is specified in the Schedule as applying to a party, then an Early Termination Date in respect of all
outstanding Transactions will occur immediately upon the occurrence with respect to such party of an Event of Default specified in Section 5(a)(vii)(l), (3), (5), (6) or, to the extent analogous thereto, (8), and as of the time immediately
preceding the institution of the relevant proceeding or the presentation of the relevant petition upon the occurrence with respect to such party of an Event of Default specified in Section 5(a)(vii)(4) or, to the extent analogous thereto, (8).

 (b) Right to Terminate Following Termination Event. 

(i) Notice. If a Termination Event other than a Force Majeure Event occurs, an Affected Party will, promptly upon becoming aware
of it, notify the other party, specifying the nature of that Termination Event and each Affected Transaction, and will also give the other party such other information about that Termination Event as the other party may reasonably require. If a
Force Majeure Event occurs, each party will, promptly upon becoming aware of it, use all reasonable efforts to notify the other party, specifying the nature of that Force Majeure Event, and will also give the other party such other information about
that Force Majeure Event as the other party may reasonably require. 
 (ii) Transfer to Avoid Termination Event. If a Tax Event
occurs and there is only one Affected Party, or if a Tax Event Upon Merger occurs and the Burdened Party is the Affected Party, the Affected Party will, as a condition to its right to designate an Early Termination Date under Section 6(b)(iv),
use all reasonable efforts (which will not require such party to incur a loss, other than immaterial, incidental expenses) to transfer within 20 days after it gives notice under Section 6(b)(i) all its rights and obligations under this
Agreement in respect of the Affected Transactions to another of its Offices or Affiliates so that such Termination Event ceases to exist. 

If the Affected Party is not able to make such a transfer it will give notice to the other party to that effect within such 20 day period,
whereupon the other party may effect such a transfer within 30 days after the notice is given under Section 6(b)(i). 
 Any such
transfer by a party under this Section 6(b)(ii) will be subject to and conditional upon the prior written consent of the other party, which consent will not be withheld if such other party’s policies in effect at such time would permit it
to enter into transactions with the transferee on the terms proposed. 
 (iii) Two Affected Parties. If a Tax Event occurs and
there are two Affected Parties, each party will use all reasonable efforts to reach agreement within 30 days after notice of such occurrence is given under Section 6(b)(i) to avoid that Termination Event. 

  

					
		  	11	  	ISDA® 2002









 (iv) Right to Terminate. 

(1) If:— 
 (A) a transfer
under Section 6(b)(ii) or an agreement under Section 6(b)(iii), as the case may be, has not been effected with respect to all Affected Transactions within 30 days after an Affected Party gives notice under Section 6(b)(i); or 

(B) a Credit Event Upon Merger or an Additional Termination Event occurs, or a Tax Event Upon Merger occurs and the Burdened Party is not the
Affected Party, 
 the Burdened Party in the case of a Tax Event Upon Merger, any Affected Party in the case of a Tax Event or an Additional
Termination Event if there are two Affected Parties, or the Non- affected Party in the case of a Credit Event Upon Merger or an Additional Termination Event if there is only one Affected Party may, if the relevant Termination Event is then
continuing, by not more than 20 days notice to the other party, designate a day not earlier than the day such notice is effective as an Early Termination Date in respect of all Affected Transactions. 

(2) If at any time an Illegality or a Force Majeure Event has occurred and is then continuing and any applicable Waiting Period has
expired:— 
 (A) Subject to clause (B) below, either party may, by not more than 20 days notice to the other party, designate
(I) a day not earlier than the day on which such notice becomes effective as an Early Termination Date in respect of all Affected Transactions or (II) by specifying in that notice the Affected Transactions in respect of which it is designating
the relevant day as an Early Termination Date, a day not earlier than two Local Business Days following the day on which such notice becomes effective as an Early Termination Date in respect of less than all Affected Transactions. Upon receipt of a
notice designating an Early Termination Date in respect of less than all Affected Transactions, the other party may, by notice to the designating party, if such notice is effective on or before the day so designated, designate that same day as an
Early Termination Date in respect of any or all other Affected Transactions. 
 (B) An Affected Party (if the Illegality or Force Majeure
Event relates to performance by such party or any Credit Support Provider of such party of an obligation to make any payment or delivery under, or to compliance with any other material provision of, the relevant Credit Support Document) will only
have the right to designate an Early Termination Date under Section 6(b)(iv)(2)(A) as a result of an Illegality under Section 5(b)(i)(2) or a Force Majeure Event under Section 5(b)(ii)(2) following the prior designation by the other
party of an Early Termination Date, pursuant to Section 6(b)(iv)(2)(A), in respect of less than all Affected Transactions. 
 (c) Effect of
Designation. 
 (i) If notice designating an Early Termination Date is given under Section 6(a) or 6(b), the Early Termination
Date will occur on the date so designated, whether or not the relevant Event of Default or Termination Event is then continuing. 
 (ii) Upon
the occurrence or effective designation of an Early Termination Date, no further payments or deliveries under Section 2(a)(i) or 9(h)(i) in respect of the Terminated Transactions will be required to be made, but without prejudice to the other
provisions of this Agreement. The amount, if any, payable in respect of an Early Termination Date will be determined pursuant to Sections 6(e) and 9(h)(ii). 

  

					
		  	12	  	ISDA® 2002









 (d) Calculations; Payment Date. 

(i) Statement. On or as soon as reasonably practicable following the occurrence of an Early Termination Date, each party will
make the calculations on its part, if any, contemplated by Section 6(e) and will provide to the other party a statement (1) showing, in reasonable detail, such calculations (including any quotations, market data or information from
internal sources used in making such calculations), (2) specifying (except where there are two Affected Parties) any Early Termination Amount payable and (3) giving details of the relevant account to which any amount payable to it is to be paid. In
the absence of written confirmation from the source of a quotation or market data obtained in determining a Close-out Amount, the records of the party obtaining such quotation or market data will be conclusive evidence of the existence and accuracy
of such quotation or market data. 
 (ii) Payment Date. An Early Termination Amount due in respect of any Early Termination
Date will, together with any amount of interest payable pursuant to Section 9(h)(ii)(2), be payable (1) on the day on which notice of the amount payable is effective in the case of an Early Termination Date which is designated or occurs as
a result of an Event of Default and (2) on the day which is two Local Business Days after the day on which notice of the amount payable is effective (or, if there are two Affected Parties, after the day on which the statement provided pursuant
to clause (i) above by the second party to provide such a statement is effective) in the case of an Early Termination Date which is designated as a result of a Termination Event. 

(e) Payments on Early Termination. If an Early Termination Date occurs, the amount, if any, payable in respect of that Early Termination Date
(the “Early Termination Amount”) will be determined pursuant to this Section 6(e) and will be subject to Section 6(f). 

(i) Events of Default. If the Early Termination Date results from an Event of Default, the Early Termination Amount will be an
amount equal to (1) the sum of (A) the Termination Currency Equivalent of the Close-out Amount or Close-out Amounts (whether positive or negative) determined by the Non-defaulting Party for each Terminated Transaction or group of
Terminated Transactions, as the case may be, and (B) the Termination Currency Equivalent of the Unpaid Amounts owing to the Non-defaulting Party less (2) the Termination Currency Equivalent of the Unpaid Amounts owing to the Defaulting
Party. If the Early Termination Amount is a positive number, the Defaulting Party will pay it to the Non-defaulting Party; if it is a negative number, the Non-defaulting Party will pay the absolute value of the Early Termination Amount to the
Defaulting Party. 
 (ii) Termination Events. If the Early Termination Date results from a Termination Event:— 

(1) One Affected Party. Subject to clause (3) below, if there is one Affected Party, the Early Termination Amount will be
determined in accordance with Section 6(e)(i), except that references to the Defaulting Party and to the Non-defaulting Party will be deemed to be references to the Affected Party and to the Non-affected Party, respectively. 

(2) Two Affected Parties. Subject to clause (3) below, if there are two Affected Parties, each party will determine an amount equal
to the Termination Currency Equivalent of the sum of the Close-out Amount or Close-out Amounts (whether positive or negative) for each Terminated Transaction or group of Terminated Transactions, as the case may be, and the Early Termination Amount
will be an amount equal to (A) the sum of (I) one-half of the difference between the higher amount so determined (by party “X”) and the lower amount so determined (by party “Y”) and (II) the Termination Currency
Equivalent of the Unpaid Amounts owing to X less (B) the Termination Currency Equivalent of the Unpaid Amounts owing to Y. If the Early Termination Amount is a positive number, Y will pay it to X; if it is a negative number, X will pay the
absolute value of the Early Termination Amount to Y. 

  

					
		  	13	  	ISDA® 2002









 (3) Mid-Market Events. If that Termination Event is an Illegality or a Force Majeure
Event, then the Early Termination Amount will be determined in accordance with clause (1) or (2) above, as appropriate, except that, for the purpose of determining a Close-out Amount or Close-out Amounts, the Determining Party will:—

 (A) if obtaining quotations from one or more third parties (or from any of the Determining Party’s Affiliates), ask each third party
or Affiliate (I) not to take account of the current creditworthiness of the Determining Party or any existing Credit Support Document and (II) to provide mid-market quotations; and 

(B) in any other case, use mid-market values without regard to the creditworthiness of the Determining Party. 

(iii) Adjustment for Bankruptcy. In circumstances where an Early Termination Date occurs because Automatic Early Termination
applies in respect of a party, the Early Termination Amount will be subject to such adjustments as are appropriate and permitted by applicable law to reflect any payments or deliveries made by one party to the other under this Agreement (and
retained by such other party) during the period from the relevant Early Termination Date to the date for payment determined under Section 6(d)(ii). 

(iv) Adjustment for Illegality or Force Majeure Event. The failure by a party or any Credit Support Provider of such party to
pay, when due, any Early Termination Amount will not constitute an Event of Default under Section 5(a)(i) or 5(a)(iii)(l) if such failure is due to the occurrence of an event or circumstance which would, if it occurred with respect to payment,
delivery or compliance related to a Transaction, constitute or give rise to an Illegality or a Force Majeure Event. Such amount will (1) accrue interest and otherwise be treated as an Unpaid Amount owing to the other party if subsequently an
Early Termination Date results from an Event of Default, a Credit Event Upon Merger or an Additional Termination Event in respect of which all outstanding Transactions are Affected Transactions and (2) otherwise accrue interest in accordance
with Section 9(h)(ii)(2). 
 (v) Pre-Estimate. The parties agree that an amount recoverable under this Section 6(e)
is a reasonable pre-estimate of loss and not a penalty. Such amount is payable for the loss of bargain and the loss of protection against future risks, and, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, neither party will be entitled to recover
any additional damages as a consequence of the termination of the Terminated Transactions. 
 (f) Set-Off. Any Early Termination Amount payable
to one party (the “Payee”) by the other party (the “Payer”), in circumstances where there is a Defaulting Party or where there is one Affected Party in the case where either a Credit Event Upon Merger has occurred or any other
Termination Event in respect of which all outstanding Transactions are Affected Transactions has occurred, will, at the option of the Non-defaulting Party or the Non- affected Party, as the case may be (“X”) (and without prior notice to
the Defaulting Party or the Affected Party, as the case may be), be reduced by its set-off against any other amounts (“Other Amounts”) payable by the Payee to the Payer (whether or not arising under this Agreement, matured or contingent
and irrespective of the currency, place of payment or place of booking of the obligation). To the extent that any Other Amounts are so set off, those Other Amounts will be discharged promptly and in all respects. X will give notice to the other
party of any set-off effected under this Section 6(f). 
 For this purpose, either the Early Termination Amount or the Other Amounts (or the relevant
portion of such amounts) may be converted by X into the currency in which the other is denominated at the rate of exchange at which such party would be able, in good faith and using commercially reasonable procedures, to purchase the relevant amount
of such currency. 

  

					
		  	14	  	ISDA® 2002









 If an obligation is unascertained, X may in good faith estimate that obligation and set off in respect of the
estimate, subject to the relevant party accounting to the other when the obligation is ascertained. 
 Nothing in this Section 6(f) will be effective
to create a charge or other security interest. This Section 6(f) will be without prejudice and in addition to any right of set-off, offset, combination of accounts, lien, right of retention or withholding or similar right or requirement to
which any party is at any time otherwise entitled or subject (whether by operation of law, contract or otherwise). 
 7. Transfer 

Subject to Section 6(b)(ii) and to the extent permitted by applicable law, neither this Agreement nor any interest or obligation in or under this
Agreement may be transferred (whether by way of security or otherwise) by either party without the prior written consent of the other party, except that:— 

(a) a party may make such a transfer of this Agreement pursuant to a consolidation or amalgamation with, or merger with or into, or transfer of all or
substantially all its assets to, another entity (but without prejudice to any other right or remedy under this Agreement); and 
 (b) a party may make such
a transfer of all or any part of its interest in any Early Termination Amount payable to it by a Defaulting Party, together with any amounts payable on or with respect to that interest and any other rights associated with that interest pursuant to
Sections 8, 9(h) and 11. 
 Any purported transfer that is not in compliance with this Section 7 will be void. 

8. Contractual Currency 
 (a) Payment in the
Contractual Currency. Each payment under this Agreement will be made in the relevant currency specified in this Agreement for that payment (the “Contractual Currency”). To the extent permitted by applicable law, any obligation to
make payments under this Agreement in the Contractual Currency will not be discharged or satisfied by any tender in any currency other than the Contractual Currency, except to the extent such tender results in the actual receipt by the party to
which payment is owed, acting in good faith and using commercially reasonable procedures in converting the currency so tendered into the Contractual Currency, of the full amount in the Contractual Currency of all amounts payable in respect of this
Agreement. If for any reason the amount in the Contractual Currency so received falls short of the amount in the Contractual Currency payable in respect of this Agreement, the party required to make the payment will, to the extent permitted by
applicable law, immediately pay such additional amount in the Contractual Currency as may be necessary to compensate for the shortfall. If for any reason the amount in the Contractual Currency so received exceeds the amount in the Contractual
Currency payable in respect of this Agreement, the party receiving the payment will refund promptly the amount of such excess. 
 (b)
Judgments. To the extent permitted by applicable law, if any judgment or order expressed in a currency other than the Contractual Currency is rendered (i) for the payment of any amount owing in respect of this Agreement,
(ii) for the payment of any amount relating to any early termination in respect of this Agreement or (iii) in respect of a judgment or order of another court for the payment of any amount described in clause (i) or (ii) above,
the party seeking recovery, after recovery in full of the aggregate amount to which such party is entitled pursuant to the judgment or order, will be entitled to receive immediately from the other party the amount of any shortfall of the Contractual
Currency received by such party as a consequence of sums paid in such other currency and will refund promptly to the other party any excess of the Contractual Currency received by such party as a consequence of sums paid in such other currency if
such shortfall or such excess arises or results from any variation between the rate of exchange at which the Contractual Currency is converted into the currency of the judgment or order for the purpose of such judgment or order and the rate of
exchange at which such party is able, acting in good faith and using commercially reasonable procedures in converting the currency received into the Contractual Currency, to purchase the Contractual Currency with the amount of the currency of the
judgment or order actually received by such party.

 (c) Separate Indemnities. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the indemnities in this
Section 8 constitute separate and independent obligations from the other obligations in this Agreement, will be enforceable as separate and independent causes of action, will apply notwithstanding any indulgence granted by the party to which
any payment is owed and will not be affected by judgment being obtained or claim or proof being made for any other sums payable in respect of this Agreement. 

(d) Evidence of Loss. For the purpose of this Section 8, it will be sufficient for a party to demonstrate that it would have suffered a
loss had an actual exchange or purchase been made. 
 9. Miscellaneous 

(a) Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and understanding of the parties with respect to its subject matter. Each
of the parties acknowledges that in entering into this Agreement it has not relied on any oral or written representation, warranty or other assurance (except as provided for or referred to in this Agreement) and waives all rights and remedies which
might otherwise be available to it in respect thereof, except that nothing in this Agreement will limit or exclude any liability of a party for fraud. 

(b) Amendments. An amendment, modification or waiver in respect of this Agreement will only be effective if in writing (including a writing
evidenced by a facsimile transmission) and executed by each of the parties or confirmed by an exchange of telexes or by an exchange of electronic messages on an electronic messaging system. 

(c) Survival of Obligations. Without prejudice to Sections 2(a)(iii) and 6(c)(ii), the obligations of the parties under this Agreement will
survive the termination of any Transaction. 
 (d) Remedies Cumulative. Except as provided in this Agreement, the rights, powers, remedies and
privileges provided in this Agreement are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, powers, remedies and privileges provided by law. 
 (e)
Counterparts and Confirmations. 
 (i) This Agreement (and each amendment, modification and waiver in respect of it) may be
executed and delivered in counterparts (including by facsimile transmission and by electronic messaging system), each of which will be deemed an original. 

(ii) The parties intend that they are legally bound by the terms of each Transaction from the moment they agree to those terms (whether orally
or otherwise). A Confirmation will be entered into as soon as practicable and may be executed and delivered in counterparts (including by facsimile transmission) or be created by an exchange of telexes, by an exchange of electronic messages on an
electronic messaging system or by an exchange of e-mails, which in each case will be sufficient for all purposes to evidence a binding supplement to this Agreement. The parties will specify therein or through another effective means that any such
counterpart, telex, electronic message or e-mail constitutes a Confirmation. 
 (f) No Waiver of Rights. A failure or delay in exercising any
right, power or privilege in respect of this Agreement will not be presumed to operate as a waiver, and a single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege will not be presumed to preclude any subsequent or further exercise, of that right,
power or privilege or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. 
 (g) Headings. The headings used in this Agreement are for
convenience of reference only and are not to affect the construction of or to be taken into consideration in interpreting this Agreement.

 (h) Interest and Compensation. 

(i) Prior to Early Termination. Prior to the occurrence or effective designation of an Early Termination Date in respect of the
relevant Transaction:— 
 (1) Interest on Defaulted Payments. If a party defaults in the performance of any payment obligation,
it will, to the extent permitted by applicable law and subject to Section 6(c), pay interest (before as well as after judgment) on the overdue amount to the other party on demand in the same currency as the overdue amount, for the period from
(and including) the original due date for payment to (but excluding) the date of actual payment (and excluding any period in respect of which interest or compensation in respect of the overdue amount is due pursuant to clause (3)(B) or
(C) below), at the Default Rate. 
 (2) Compensation for Defaulted Deliveries. If a party defaults in the performance of any
obligation required to be settled by delivery, it will on demand (A) compensate the other party to the extent provided for in the relevant Confirmation or elsewhere in this Agreement and (B) unless otherwise provided in the relevant
Confirmation or elsewhere in this Agreement, to the extent permitted by applicable law and subject to Section 6(c), pay to the other party interest (before as well as after judgment) on an amount equal to the fair market value of that which was
required to be delivered in the same currency as that amount, for the period from (and including) the originally scheduled date for delivery to (but excluding) the date of actual delivery (and excluding any period in respect of which interest or
compensation in respect of that amount is due pursuant to clause (4) below), at the Default Rate. The fair market value of any obligation referred to above will be determined as of the originally scheduled date for delivery, in good faith and
using commercially reasonable procedures, by the party that was entitled to take delivery. 
 (3) Interest on Deferred Payments.
If:— 
 (A) a party does not pay any amount that, but for Section 2(a)(iii), would have been payable, it will, to the extent
permitted by applicable law and subject to Section 6(c) and clauses (B) and (C) below, pay interest (before as well as after judgment) on that amount to the other party on demand (after such amount becomes payable) in the same
currency as that amount, for the period from (and including) the date the amount would, but for Section 2(a)(iii), have been payable to (but excluding) the date the amount actually becomes payable, at the Applicable Deferral Rate; 

(B) a payment is deferred pursuant to Section 5(d), the party which would otherwise have been required to make that payment will, to the
extent permitted by applicable law, subject to Section 6(c) and for so long as no Event of Default or Potential Event of Default with respect to that party has occurred and is continuing, pay interest (before as well as after judgment) on the
amount of the deferred payment to the other party on demand (after such amount becomes payable) in the same currency as the deferred payment, for the period from (and including) the date the amount would, but for Section 5(d), have been payable
to (but excluding) the earlier of the date the payment is no longer deferred pursuant to Section 5(d) and the date during the deferral period upon which an Event of Default or Potential Event of Default with respect to that party occurs, at the
Applicable Deferral Rate; or 
 (C) a party fails to make any payment due to the occurrence of an Illegality or a Force Majeure Event (after
giving effect to any deferral period contemplated by clause (B) above), it will, to the extent permitted by applicable law, subject to Section 6(c) and for so long as the event or circumstance giving rise to that Illegality or Force
Majeure Event 

  

					
		  	17	  	ISDA® 2002









 continues and no Event of Default or Potential Event of Default with respect to that party has
occurred and is continuing, pay interest (before as well as after judgment) on the overdue amount to the other party on demand in the same currency as the overdue amount, for the period from (and including) the date the party fails to make the
payment due to the occurrence of the relevant Illegality or Force Majeure Event (or, if later, the date the payment is no longer deferred pursuant to Section 5(d)) to (but excluding) the earlier of the date the event or circumstance giving rise
to that Illegality or Force Majeure Event ceases to exist and the date during the period upon which an Event of Default or Potential Event of Default with respect to that party occurs (and excluding any period in respect of which interest or
compensation in respect of the overdue amount is due pursuant to clause (B) above), at the Applicable Deferral Rate. 
 (4)
Compensation for Deferred Deliveries. If:— 
 (A) a party does not perform any obligation that, but for Section 2(a)(iii),
would have been required to be settled by delivery; 
 (B) a delivery is deferred pursuant to Section 5(d); or 

(C) a party fails to make a delivery due to the occurrence of an Illegality or a Force Majeure Event at a time when any applicable Waiting
Period has expired, 
 the party required (or that would otherwise have been required) to make the delivery will, to the extent permitted by
applicable law and subject to Section 6(c), compensate and pay interest to the other party on demand (after, in the case of clauses (A) and (B) above, such delivery is required) if and to the extent provided for in the relevant
Confirmation or elsewhere in this Agreement. 
 (ii) Early Termination. Upon the occurrence or effective designation of an
Early Termination Date in respect of a Transaction:— 
 (1) Unpaid Amounts. For the purpose of determining an Unpaid Amount in
respect of the relevant Transaction, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, interest will accrue on the amount of any payment obligation or the amount equal to the fair market value of any obligation required to be settled by delivery
included in such determination in the same currency as that amount, for the period from (and including) the date the relevant obligation was (or would have been but for Section 2(a)(iii) or 5(d)) required to have been performed to (but
excluding) the relevant Early Termination Date, at the Applicable Close-out Rate. 
 (2) Interest on Early Termination Amounts. If an
Early Termination Amount is due in respect of such Early Termination Date, that amount will, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be paid together with interest (before as well as after judgment) on that amount in the Termination Currency, for
the period from (and including) such Early Termination Date to (but excluding) the date the amount is paid, at the Applicable Close-out Rate. 

(iii) Interest Calculation. Any interest pursuant to this Section 9(h) will be calculated on the basis of daily compounding
and the actual number of days elapsed.

 10. Offices; Multibranch Parties 

(a) If Section 10(a) is specified in the Schedule as applying, each party that enters into a Transaction through an Office other than its head or home
office represents to and agrees with the other party that, notwithstanding the place of booking or its jurisdiction of incorporation or organisation, its obligations are the same in terms of recourse against it as if it had entered into the
Transaction through its head or home office, except that a party will not have recourse to the head or home office of the other party in respect of any payment or delivery deferred pursuant to Section 5(d) for so long as the payment or delivery
is so deferred. This representation and agreement will be deemed to be repeated by each party on each date on which the parties enter into a Transaction. 

(b) If a party is specified as a Multibranch Party in the Schedule, such party may, subject to clause (c) below, enter into a Transaction through, book a
Transaction in and make and receive payments and deliveries with respect to a Transaction through any Office listed in respect of that party in the Schedule (but not any other Office unless otherwise agreed by the parties in writing). 

(c) The Office through which a party enters into a Transaction will be the Office specified for that party in the relevant Confirmation or as otherwise agreed
by the parties in writing, and, if an Office for that party is not specified in the Confirmation or otherwise agreed by the parties in writing, its head or home office. Unless the parties otherwise agree in writing, the Office through which a party
enters into a Transaction will also be the Office in which it books the Transaction and the Office through which it makes and receives payments and deliveries with respect to the Transaction. Subject to Section 6(b)(ii), neither party may
change the Office in which it books the Transaction or the Office through which it makes and receives payments or deliveries with respect to a Transaction without the prior written consent of the other party. 

11. Expenses 
 A Defaulting Party will on demand indemnify
and hold harmless the other party for and against all reasonable out-of- pocket expenses, including legal fees, execution fees and Stamp Tax, incurred by such other party by reason of the enforcement and protection of its rights under this Agreement
or any Credit Support Document to which the Defaulting Party is a party or by reason of the early termination of any Transaction, including, but not limited to, costs of collection. 

12. Notices 
 (a) Effectiveness. Any notice
or other communication in respect of this Agreement may be given in any manner described below (except that a notice or other communication under Section 5 or 6 may not be given by electronic messaging system or e-mail) to the address or number
or in accordance with the electronic messaging system or e-mail details provided (see the Schedule) and will be deemed effective as indicated:— 

(i) if in writing and delivered in person or by courier, on the date it is delivered; 

(ii) if sent by telex, on the date the recipient’s answerback is received; 

(iii) if sent by facsimile transmission, on the date it is received by a responsible employee of the recipient in legible form (it being agreed
that the burden of proving receipt will be on the sender and will not be met by a transmission report generated by the sender’s facsimile machine); 

(iv) if sent by certified or registered mail (airmail, if overseas) or the equivalent (return receipt requested), on the date it is delivered
or its delivery is attempted; 
 (v) if sent by electronic messaging system, on the date it is received; or 

  

					
		  	19	  	ISDA® 2002

of-pocket expenses referred to in Section 11 are to be excluded in all determinations of Close-out Amounts.

Determining Party’s Affiliates) if that information is of the same type used by the Determining Party in the regular course of its business for the valuation of similar transactions. 

The Determining Party will consider, taking into account the standards and procedures described in this definition, quotations pursuant to clause
(i) above or relevant market data pursuant to clause (ii) above unless the Determining Party reasonably believes in good faith that such quotations or relevant market data are not readily available or would produce a result that would not
satisfy those standards. When considering information described in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) above, the Determining Party may include costs of funding, to the extent costs of funding are not and would not be a component of the other information
being utilised. Third parties supplying quotations pursuant to clause (i) above or market data pursuant to clause (ii) above may include, without limitation, dealers in the relevant markets, end-users of the relevant product, information
vendors, brokers and other sources of market information. 
 Without duplication of amounts calculated based on information described in clause (i),
(ii) or (iii) above, or other relevant information, and when it is commercially reasonable to do so, the Determining Party may in addition consider in calculating a Close-out Amount any loss or cost incurred in connection with its
terminating, liquidating or re-establishing any hedge related to a Terminated Transaction or group of Terminated Transactions (or any gain resulting from any of them).

Party and unrelated third parties that are similar to the Terminated Transaction or group of Terminated Transactions; and

 “2(a)(iv) Without otherwise limiting the rights of a Non-defaulting Party or non-Affected
Party (“X”), in the event that X suspends payments or deliveries in accordance with the conditions precedent specified in Section 2(a)(iii)(1) of this Agreement following the occurrence of an Event of Default or an event which
would, with the passing of time, become an Event of Default (an “Occurrence”), X agrees that the condition precedent with respect to such Occurrence shall be deemed to expire on the date (the “Performance Date”)
which is ten (10) calendar days after the first date of such suspension of payments or deliveries by X; provided, that the other Party has given written notice citing this provision five (5) calendar days prior to such Performance Date.
Unless X has designated an Early Termination Date as a result of a particular Occurrence on or before the Performance Date attributable to such Occurrence, such Occurrence shall cease to be a condition precedent with respect to the obligations under
Section 2(a)(i) of this Agreement”. 
  

	(k)	Failure to Pay or Deliver. Section 5(a)(i) of this Agreement is hereby amended by the addition of the following words at the end thereof: “provided, however, that,
notwithstanding the foregoing, an Event of Default shall not occur if such party demonstrates, to the reasonable satisfaction of the other party, that: (I) such failure to make any payment or delivery is caused by an error or omission of an
administrative or operational nature; (II) funds or assets were available to such party to enable it to make the relevant payment or delivery when due; and (III) such payment or delivery is made within three (3) Local Business Days following
the date on which written notice of such failure to pay or deliver is given to such party.” 

  

	(l)	Misrepresentation. Section 5(a)(iv) of this Agreement is hereby amended by the addition at the end thereof of the words; “if such misrepresentation is not remedied on or before the fifth (5th) Local Business Day following notice of such failure being given to the party and two (2) Local Business Days’ notice of such failure to remedy has thereafter been given to the
party.” 

  

	(m)	Payments on Early Termination. Section 6(e) shall be deleted and replaced by the following new Section 6(e): 


“(e) Payments on Early Termination. If an Early Termination Date occurs, the amounts, if any, deliverable or payable in
respect of that Early Termination Date (the “Early Termination Amount”) will be determined pursuant to this Section 6(e) and will be subject to Section 6(f). 

(i) Events of Default. If the Early Termination Date results from an Event of Default, the Early Termination Amount shall be that
quantity of Bullion equal to the Bullion Close-Out Amount or Bullion Close-Out Amounts (whether positive or negative) determined by the Non-defaulting Party for each Terminated Transaction or group of Terminated Transactions, as the case may be. If
such Early Termination Amount is a positive quantity, the Defaulting Party will deliver it to the Non-defaulting Party; if it is a negative quantity, the Non-defaulting Party will deliver the absolute quantity of such Early Termination Amount to the
Defaulting Party. 
  

	 	(ii)	Termination Events. If the Early Termination Date results from a Termination Event: 


(A) One Affected Party. Subject to paragraph (C) below, if there is one Affected Party, the Early Termination Amount shall be that
quantity of Bullion equal to the Bullion Close-Out Amount or Bullion Close-Out Amounts (whether positive or negative) determined by the Non- affected Party for each Terminated Transaction or group of Terminated Transactions, as the case may be. If
such Early Termination Amount is a positive quantity, the Affected Party will deliver it to the Non-affected Party; if it is a negative quantity, the Non-affected Party will deliver the absolute quantity of such Early Termination Amount to the
Affected Party. 
 (B) Two Affected Parties. Subject to paragraph (C) below, if there are two Affected Parties, each Party will
determine a Bullion Close-Out Amount or Bullion Close-Out Amounts (whether positive or negative) for each Terminated Transaction or group of Terminated Transactions, as the case may be. Thereafter, the Early Termination Amount will be a quantity
equal to one-half of the difference between the higher Bullion Close-Out Amount so determined (by party “X”) and the lower Bullion Close-Out Amount so determined (by party “Y”). If such Early Termination Amount is a positive
quantity, Y will deliver such Early Termination Amount to X; if it is a negative quantity, X will deliver the absolute quantity of such Early Termination Amount to Y. 

  
 13 








 (C) Mid-Market Events. If that Termination Event is an Illegality or a Force Majeure
Event, then the Early Termination Amount will be determined in accordance with paragraph (A) or (B) above, as appropriate, except that, for the purpose of determining a Bullion Close-Out Amount or Bullion Close-Out Amounts, the Determining
Party will: 
 (1) if obtaining quotations from one or more third parties (or from any of the Determining Party’s Affiliates), ask each
third party or Affiliate: (I) not to take account of the current creditworthiness of the Determining Party or any existing Credit Support Document; and (II) to provide mid-market quotations; and 

(2) in any other case, use mid-market values without regard to the creditworthiness of the Determining Party. 

(iii) Pre-Estimate. The parties agree that a quantity or amount recoverable under this Section 6(e) is a reasonable
pre-estimate of loss and not a penalty. Such quantity or amount is deliverable or payable for the loss of bargain and the loss of protection against future risks, and, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, neither Party will be entitled to
recover any additional damages as a consequence of the termination of the Terminated Transactions.” 
  

	(n)	Export of Defaults. The occurrence or designation of an Early Termination Date on account of an Event of Default or Termination Event with respect to a Party hereto (“X”) (where X is the
Defaulting Party or sole Affected Party) shall constitute a material breach and event of default (howsoever described) under all transactions between X and the other Party (“Y”) (whether or not arising under this Agreement, whether or not
matured, whether or not contingent and regardless of the currency, place of payment or booking office of the obligation) (together, the “Other Transactions”), whereupon Y shall have the right to terminate, liquidate and otherwise
close out any such Other Transactions (and X shall be liable for any damages suffered by Y as a result thereof). 

  

	(o)	Single Relationship. The parties intend that all Transactions and all other obligations (whether or not arising under this Agreement, whether or not matured, whether or not contingent and regardless of the
currency, place of payment or booking office of the obligation) shall be treated as mutual and part of a single, indivisible contractual and business relationship.

	 	(iii)	The Shares have been structured and are being marketed or promoted by Party B and any service providers Party B engages to assist with marketing or promotion, and Party A has had and has no involvement in either of

 20 









	 	(iii)	Party B shall not, and shall require that each Authorized Participant does not, represent or suggest to any potential investors in or distributors of Shares that either Party A or any of its Affiliates has structured
Shares or provided any advice or information in respect of Shares. 

  

	 	(iv)	For so long as any Shares are outstanding, Party B undertakes to provide to Party A, promptly upon Party A’s request, such information as Party B is required to deliver to the trustee of the Trust or any applicable
regulator. 

  

	 	(v)	For so long as any Shares are outstanding, Party B undertakes to promptly (and, in any event, within two (2) Local Business Days) procure that The Bank of New York Mellon, as Administrator of the Fund, provides
notice to Party A of the Creation and Redemption (each such term as defined in the Prospectus) of Shares. 

  

	 	(vi)	For so long as any Shares are outstanding, Party B undertakes to notify Party A in writing as soon as reasonably practicable if Party B is in breach of this Agreement. 


 

	 	(vii)	For so long as any Shares are outstanding, Party B undertakes to notify Party A in writing as soon as reasonably practicable in the event that Solactive AG or The Bank of New York Mellon is in breach of any of their
respective obligations under the Platform Documents. 

  

	 	(viii)	Party B undertakes not to incur or permit to subsist any indebtedness for borrowed money, lien, claim, charge or encumbrance, and not to give any guarantee or indemnity in respect of indebtedness of any person;
provided, however, Party B may borrow from the Custodian, an amount of Bullion not exceeding one Good Delivery Bar (as such term is defined in accordance with the good delivery rules of the Market Association for Bullion
in place from time to time) to ensure that Shares are fully backed by Bullion. 

  

	 	(ix)	Party B undertakes not to undertake any business save for the Creation and Redemption of Shares, the acquisition and disposal of Bullion, entering into Transactions, and entering into all other documents necessary for

	 	(xiii)	Party B undertakes not to have: (A) any subsidiaries; or (B) any Affiliates controlled by Party B. 

  

	 	(xiv)	Party B undertakes to procure that the Bullion it holds is at all times maintained in a manner so that it is readily distinguishable from the property attributable to any other person, provided, however, Party B may
hold Bullion in the Fund Unallocated Account for the amount of time necessary to effect transactions for the Fund. 

  

	 	(xv)	Party B undertakes not to open any bank account other than as contemplated in the Prospectus. 

  

	 	(xvi)	 Party B acknowledges that the Trust is authorized to establish series within the meaning of Sections 3804(a) and

Series of the Trust. Both the Fund and the Trust will: (A) cause all bank accounts, records and books of account of or associated with the Fund to be separable and distinct, and distinguishable on the records of the Trust from those of the
Trust generally, of any other Series or of any other entity; (B) not commingle any of the assets, property, money, instruments, rights and other property that are deposited with, granted to, acquired or held by the Trust in respect of (whether
or not held in the name of) the Fund (the “Fund Property”) with the assets of the Trust generally, of any other Series or of any other 



  
 21 









	 	
entity and cause the Fund Property, debts, liabilities, obligations, expenses, profits and losses associated with the Fund to be held and accounted for separately from the other assets, debts,
liabilities, obligations, expenses, profits and losses of the Trust or any other Series; (C) not pay, other than from the Fund Property, any obligations of any kind incurred by it and payable by it pursuant to this Agreement; (D) observe
all trust formalities required by this Agreement, the Trust Agreement, and applicable law, including those set forth in the DST Act. Upon a change, supplement or modification to or amendment of, the terms, rights, preferences and liabilities of the
Fund, Party B shall promptly provide to Party A a copy of the resolution, amendment, supplement, schedule or other document or instrument implementing, documenting or memorializing such change, supplement or modification. Party B shall not permit a
change, supplement or modification to, or amendment of, any of the terms, rights, preferences or liabilities of the Fund that could materially adversely affect its ability to perform its obligations under this Agreement without the prior written
consent of Party A or the creation of a Series that has rights in any Fund Property, except by virtue of the ownership of Shares in the Fund. 

  

	(c)	Indemnification of Party A. 

  

	 	(i)	Party B agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Party A, its directors, officers, employees, agents and affiliates, and each person, if any, who controls Party A within the meaning of either Section 15 of the
Securities Act or Section 20 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), from and against any losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including, without limitation, any reasonable legal fees and
other out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with investigating, preparing for and responding to third party subpoenas, as such expenses are incurred, or other expenses incurred by Party A in connection with defending or
investigating any action or claim to which they or any of them may become subject (the “Legal Fees”), insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) involve matters contemplated under this
Agreement, the Index, or related to any Transaction and arise out of, are based upon or arise in connection with any untrue or misleading statement of any material fact contained in the Prospectus, or any of the other reports, financial statements,
certificates or other information furnished by or on behalf of Party B to Party A on or prior to the date of this Agreement, or arise out of, are based upon or arise in connection with the omission to state therein a material fact necessary in order
to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading. 

  

	 	(ii)	Party B will not, however, be liable under the foregoing indemnification provision for losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) that have resulted from the negligence or willful misconduct
of Party A or its directors, officers, employees, agents and affiliates and in these circumstances Party A shall reimburse Party B for all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, and Legal Fees or other expenses previously paid by Party B to Party A.


  

	 	(iii)	Party B’s obligations pursuant to this Part 6(c) (Indemnification of Party A) shall inure to the benefit of any successors and assigns of each indemnified party. The obligations of Party B hereunder shall be in
addition to any rights that any indemnified party may have at common law or otherwise. 

 Part 7 

Authorized Participants 
  

	(a)	Appointment of Authorized Participants. Party B may appoint as an Authorized Participant: 

  

	 	(i)	Party A or any Affiliate of Party A; or 

  

	 	(ii)	any other person provided that this Part 7 is complied with in respect of such appointment, in addition to any other process or criteria as may apply from time to time. 


  
 22 









	(b)	Notification of new Authorized Participant. Party B shall promptly, and in any event no less than ten (10) Local Business Days prior to signing an Authorized Participant Agreement, provide notice to
Party A of the names and addresses of each person whom Party B proposes should become an Authorized Participant and shall provide (or shall procure that Party A is provided with) such information as Party A may acting in good faith require (the
“KYC information”) in order to consider whether or not the appointment of such proposed person as an Authorized Participant is appropriate in light of prevailing regulatory or reputational considerations which are beyond the control
of either of the Parties to mitigate. In the event that Party A in good faith objects to the appointment of any such Authorized Participant due to regulatory or reputational considerations which are beyond the control of either of the Parties to
mitigate, Party A shall advise Party B of the rejection as soon as practicable and no later than five (5) Local Business Days after receiving the KYC information and Party B shall cease the appointment of that Authorized Participant.


  

	(c)	Removal of Authorized Participant on notice. If, during the term of appointment of any Authorized Participant, Party A determines in good faith that such Authorized Participant is no longer an appropriate
Authorized Participant due to there being a regulatory or reputational circumstance regarding that Authorized Participant which is beyond the control of either of the Parties to mitigate, then Party A shall provide notice of such to Party B,
including evidence of the issue (subject to any confidentiality or regulatory restrictions regarding disclosure); and thereafter, Party B shall terminate such Authorized Participant Agreement as soon as reasonably practicable (but, in any event,
within ten (10) Local Business Days) of receipt of such notification from Party A. 

  

	(d)	Cessation of appointment. Party B undertakes to notify Party A in writing as soon as reasonably practicable whenever an Authorized Participant ceases to be an Authorized Participant. 


Part 8 
 Provisions in
respect of Daily Delivery Amounts 
  

	(a)	Procedures for Confirming Transactions. On each and every Index Business Day, Party B shall procure that the Index Sponsor will in good faith and with reasonable due diligence calculate the value of
the Index prior to 05:30 a.m. New York time on such Index Business Day and provide the value of the Index to Party A by no later than 05:30 a.m. New York time on such Index Business Day. 


 

	(b)	Adjustment Notice. On each Pricing Day Party A shall in good faith and with reasonable due diligence calculate the Fee Embedded Index Price and the Total Number of Shares and provide the same to Party B as
part of an Adjustment Notice by 06:30 a.m. New York time on such Pricing Day. Such values shall represent the inputs forming part of the calculation of the Daily Delivery Amount value, which will thereafter form part of the Invoice provided from
Party A to Party B. 

 Each Adjustment Notice, when taken together with the Master Confirmation and each Invoice, shall be
deemed to be a “Confirmation” in respect of an individual Transaction for the purposes of this Agreement; provided that Party A shall have (and Party B shall procure that Party A has) the dispute rights detailed further below in
relation to any Index calculations or determinations, including: (i) the Index and any values or other determinations and calculations in respect thereof; (ii) the Calculation Formulae as set out in Appendix II hereto, including the Fee
Embedded Index Price and the Total Number of Shares; and (iii) calculation of the values for the purposes of the Adjustment Notice. 

Party B shall promptly review any Adjustment Notice or Invoice received from Party A and shall notify Party A promptly, but in any event no
later than 08:00 a.m. New York Time on that Pricing Day, if it objects to any calculation therein. In the case of any objection the Parties shall use commercially reasonable efforts to resolve any dispute promptly and no later than 12:00 noon New
York time on that same Pricing Day. If the Parties are unable to resolve such dispute, then the Parties shall select an independent Substitute Dealer to make such calculation by 01:00 p.m. New York time on that same Pricing Day. The cost of such
Substitute Dealer shall be borne equally by the Parties. If the Parties are unable to agree on and appoint a Substitute Dealer, then each Party shall appoint one (1) Substitute Dealer, and those two (2) Substitute Dealers shall jointly
appoint a third (3rd) Substitute Dealer to be the Substitute Dealer by 02:00 p.m. New York time on such Pricing Day. 

  
 23 









	(c)	Dispute rights of Party A. Party A, acting in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner, may dispute a calculation or determination made in respect of the Index by the Index Sponsor (an
“Index Disputed Matter”) by providing a written notice to Party B that specifies in reasonable detail (i) the nature of the objection and (ii) an alternative calculation or determination (“Index Objection
Notice”) not later than the close of business on the Local Business Day immediately following receipt of such calculation or determination. 


If the Index Disputed Matter is not resolved by 12:00 noon New York time on the Local Business Day following the date on which an Index
Objection Notice is timely delivered by Party A (the “Informal Index Resolution Date”), then three (3) Substitute Dealers shall be appointed, no later than 05:00 p.m. New York time on the Informal Index Resolution Date (the
“Initial Index Appointment Deadline”), each to make a determination or calculation as to the Index Disputed Matter as promptly as practicable, but no later than 05:00 p.m. New York time on the second (2nd) Local Business Day following its appointment as a Substitute Dealer (the “Index Determination Deadline”). 

If the Parties are unable to agree on and appoint three (3) Substitute Dealers by the Initial Index Appointment Deadline, then Party A and
Party B shall each appoint one (1) Substitute Dealer, and those two (2) Substitute Dealers shall jointly appoint a third (3rd) Substitute Dealer by 12:00 noon New York time on the first
(1st) Local Business Day following the Informal Index Resolution Date (the “Final Index Appointment Deadline”). If for any reason the Parties are unable to appoint three
(3) Substitute Dealers pursuant to the foregoing by the Final Index Appointment Deadline, then the Index Sponsor’s original calculation or determination in respect of the Index Disputed Matter shall control. 

In the event that not more than one (1) Substitute Dealer provides a response as to the Index Disputed Matter by the Index Determination
Deadline, the Index Sponsor’s original calculation or determination in respect of the Index Disputed Matter shall control. In the event that two (2) or three (3) Substitute Dealers provide a response as to the Index Disputed Matter by
the Index Determination Deadline: 
  

	 	(i)	if those responses are susceptible to the determination of an arithmetic mean, the arithmetic mean of such responses shall be binding in respect of the Index Disputed Matter, absent manifest error; or 


 

	 	(ii)	if those responses are not susceptible to the determination of an arithmetic mean, then: (1) if the majority of the responding Substitute Dealers provided the same response, such response shall be binding in
respect of the Index Disputed Matter, absent manifest error; or (B) if the majority of the Substitute Dealers did not provide the same response, the responding Substitute Dealers will jointly appoint a fourth (4th) Substitute Dealer (the “Resolver”), and the Resolver will select within two (2) Local Business Days from the responses originally provided by the responding Substitute
Dealers, with the selected response being binding on the Parties in respect of the Index Disputed Matter, absent manifest error. By way of example and without limiting the phrase, the following are not susceptible to the determination of an
arithmetic mean: (x) responses as to whether or not an event has occurred; and (y) responses in which different terms of the Transaction are proposed to be adjusted. 


The Parties shall pay any costs of the Substitute Dealers equally. Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, the relevant Party
shall make payment or delivery of all undisputed amounts in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. All payments or deliveries with respect to disputed amounts resolved in accordance with the foregoing shall be made as promptly as practicable
after such dispute is resolved, but in no event later than 10:00 a.m. New York time on the first (1st) Local Business Day following the date on which the dispute is resolved. For the purposes of
any payment or delivery made in accordance with the preceding sentence only, the words “if such failure is not remedied on or before the third (3rd) Local Business Day after notice of such
failure is given to the party” in Section 5(a)(i) of this Agreement shall be disregarded. 
  

	(d)	Daily Delivery Amount. On each Pricing Day, Party A shall calculate the Daily Delivery Amount in respect of all Transactions. 


  
 24 









	(e)	Daily Delivery Amount Payer and Daily Delivery Amount Receiver. Subject to the terms of the Master Confirmation and this Agreement, where the Daily Delivery Amount (calculated in accordance with Part 8(d)
above) in respect of all Transactions for that DDA Delivery Date is: 

  

	 	(i)	a positive amount, such amount of ounces of Bullion shall be delivered by Party A to Party B on the DDA Delivery Date; or 

  

	 	(ii)	a negative amount, the absolute value of ounces of Bullion shall be delivered by Party B to Party A on the DDA Delivery Date, 


the Party from whom such Daily Delivery Amount is to be delivered being the “Daily Delivery Amount Payer” and the Party to
whom such Daily Delivery Amount is to be delivered being the “Daily Delivery Amount Receiver”. 
  

	(f)	Delivery of Daily Delivery Amount. On each DDA Delivery Date the Daily Delivery Amount Payer shall Deliver or procure Delivery of the Daily Delivery Amount then outstanding to the Daily Delivery Amount
Receiver. In respect of such Delivery the “Settlement by Delivery” provisions in Section 10.5 of the Commodity Definitions shall apply, such that: 

  


	 	(i)	Delivery shall be on an unallocated basis; 

  

	 	(ii)	“Negotiation” shall be deemed to have been specified in relation to “Consequences of Bullion Settlement Disruption Events”; provided that the references to “ten”
and “tenth” shall be replaced with references to “four” and “fourth” respectively; and 

  

	 	(iii)	interest shall be payable in Bullion on such late Delivery in accordance with the provisions of Part 8(j) from and including the date on which that Delivery was due to be made to and excluding the date of actual
Delivery, 

 provided further that such provisions shall cease to apply to the extent that a Bullion Settlement
Disruption (as defined in the Master Confirmation) occurs. 
  

	(g)	Final Delivery Amount. On and following the occurrence of an Early Termination Date, any Daily Delivery Amount(s) then outstanding and undelivered on and including such Early Termination Date and
attributable to the relevant Terminated Transaction or group of Terminated Transactions, as the case may be, on such date the (“Final Delivery Amount”) shall continue to be Delivered on each successive DDA Delivery Date until no
further Daily Delivery Amount remains outstanding. On and from the occurrence of an Early Termination Date in respect of all (but not some only) Transactions, unless the Parties otherwise agree, no further Transactions shall be entered into under
this Agreement. 

  

	(h)	Delivery Free of Encumbrances etc. The Delivery of Bullion under this Agreement shall, without prejudice to the definition of “Deliver”, be effected by transfer of all rights, title and interest
in the relevant Bullion such that ownership of the relevant Bullion vests in the relevant transferee free and clear of any Encumbrance or any other interest of the relevant transferor or of any third person. For these purposes
“deliver’’, “redeliver” and any derivations thereof, shall be construed accordingly. Nothing in this Agreement is intended to create or does create in favor of either Party any Encumbrance by virtue of such Delivery.


  

	(i)	General Delivery and Payment Provisions. Unless otherwise agreed all amounts of Bullion shall be Delivered by or on behalf of either Party into: (i) the account(s) specified by the Parties under this
Agreement; or (ii) where relevant, the Unallocated Bullion Account Agreement in respect of such Delivery. 

 Without
prejudice to the provisions of this Agreement, all Bullion deliverable under this Agreement shall be Delivered without set-off or counterclaim (other than any set-off expressly contemplated by this Agreement). 

 

	(j)	 Interest on late payment or delivery. Any obligation which is required to be settled by payment or
delivery on any Local Business Day under this Agreement but which is not discharged on that Local Business Day shall accrue interest at the Funding Rate from and including that Local Business Day, and shall cease to accrue interest on the date on
which such obligation is discharged in accordance with 



  
 25 









	 	
this Agreement. In the case of: (x) an obligation to pay monies, interest will accrue on the amount which is due and payable but unpaid; and (y) in the case of an obligation to Deliver
Bullion, interest will accrue on the USD value of such Bullion (determined according to the Bullion/U.S. Dollar Exchange Rate at the relevant time). 


Provided that, any such interest which has accrued in accordance with this paragraph, determined in accordance with (x) or (y) above,
shall be payable in Bullion, the amount (in ounces) of which shall be determined by converting the value of such monetary obligations into an amount of Bullion (determined according to the U.S. Dollar/Bullion Exchange Rate at the relevant time).

  

	(k)	Same Terms. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement, the parties acknowledge and agree that any obligation of Party B which is required to be settled by payment or
delivery pursuant to this Agreement, including but not limited to any payment or delivery obligation arising under Section 6(e) of this Agreement, will be satisfied prior to any other payment or delivery obligation owing to or claims made by
the sponsor of the Fund for the portion of its fees that are not used to pay for the ordinary fees and expenses of the Fund as set forth in the Prospectus under the heading “Fund Expenses”. Further, except as otherwise provided in this
paragraph, Party B confirms that the terms relating to payment or delivery obligations owing to or claims made by any of its creditors are at least as favorable as the terms and conditions granted by Party B to any other counterparty with whom it
has entered into a master trading agreement at the date of this Agreement. Should Party B enter into any subsequent master trading agreement with any other counterparty following the date of this Agreement, which master trading agreement provides
for terms and conditions relating to payment or delivery obligations to or claims made by any of its creditors that are more favorable than those contained in this Agreement, the Master Confirmation and any Transaction hereunder, then this
Agreement, the Master Confirmation and any Transaction (as applicable) shall be deemed to be modified (without the need for any formal notice or other such proceeding to give effect thereto) such as to provide Party A with the benefit of those more
favorable terms and conditions. 

 Without prejudice to the previous paragraph, Party B shall notify Party A promptly of the
existence of any such more favorable terms and conditions and Party A shall have the right to receive those more favorable terms and conditions with immediate effect. If requested in writing by Party A, Party B shall amend the terms of this
Agreement, the Master Confirmation and any Transaction (as applicable) so as to include those more favorable terms and conditions.

 DODD-FRANK COUNTERPARTY NOTIFICATION 

Title VII of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (“Dodd-Frank”) introduced wide-ranging measures designed to
introduce transparency and accountability to the swaps markets. Many of these measures are in effect at this time and additional measures may come into effect in the future. While many of these measures, such as swap data reporting and
recordkeeping, clearing and mandatory trading, have broad applicability, a significant number of rules impose new requirements on the newly created registrant categories of swap dealers and major swap participants that must register with the
Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“CFTC”). These measures, including the external business conduct standards rule,1 require swap dealers to provide notifications to you
as the swap counterparty. The purpose of this counterparty notification (“Counterparty Notification”) is to provide you with the required notifications to enable us to offer and engage in “Swaps”2 activity with you (as defined in the Commodity Exchange Act (“CEA”) and the relevant rules of the CFTC). To the extent that you are acting as agent on behalf of any clients,
investors, funds, accounts and/or other principals (“Counterparties”) that have one or more swap transactions or swap master agreements outstanding with any of the entities listed at the end of this notification, this
Counterparty Notification is being provided to these Counterparties by delivery to you on their behalf. 
 This Counterparty Notification is a necessary
step toward Dodd-Frank compliance. To meet additional Dodd-Frank requirements, we may in the future provide you with additional notifications or request certain representations, consents or information from you. Certain Dodd-Frank requirements may
be addressed by adherence to industry-wide protocols, such as the ISDA August 2012 DF Protocol published by the International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. (“ISDA”) and subsequent ISDA protocols. We strongly urge
you to adhere to all available ISDA protocols, if you have not yet done so, as these protocols will be the most efficient way to ensure Dodd-Frank compliance and will result in the least disruption to our swap trading relationship. We will continue
to provide you with additional Counterparty Notifications as further regulatory measures are finalized and become effective. 
 We kindly request that you
carefully review this Counterparty Notification. 
 NOTIFICATIONS TO ALL COUNTERPARTIES 

 

	1.	Manner of Party Communications; Disclosures including Risks, Characteristics and Economic Terms; Daily Marks. In order to effectively execute Swaps with you in a manner consistent with our responsibilities
as a swap dealer, we intend to communicate any required notifications, disclosures and other information, including standardized notifications and disclosures applicable to multiple Swaps, through any of the following means: 


 

	 	(a)	via mail, email or fax; or 

  

	 	(b)	by posting on a web page at, or accessible through (i) for disclosures, including material risks, characteristics, and material economic terms, https://vtm.bankofamerica.com/vtm/Home.do; or (ii) for daily

is restricted); provided that:  

  

	 	(i)	communications with respect to price, pre-trade mid-market marks, basic material economic terms and other material characteristics of a Swap may be communicated by personal communications (whether in person, by
telephone or through electronic communication networks or systems) or pursuant to the means specified in (a) or (b) above, provided further that any oral disclosures are confirmed by us in writing; 


 

	1 	Business Conduct Standards for Swap Dealers and Major Swap Participants with Counterparties, 77 Fed. Reg. 9734 (Feb. 17, 2012). 


	2 	As used in this Counterparty Notification, “Swap” also means any material amendment, mutual unwind or novation of an existing Swap, as well as any guarantee of a swap. 


  
 27 









	 	(ii)	we may post your daily marks to our website without providing you with separate notices of each posting; and 

  

	 	(iii)	disclosures provided pursuant to the means specified in (b) above will apply to any Swap we may execute with you unless we notify you otherwise pursuant to the means specified in (a) above.

Valuations at:

should such consent be required by applicable law. 

 We appreciate your attention to this matter, and we look forward to continuing our
relationship with your firm.

	 MLI Reference:
	  	[●]

 The purpose of this letter (this “Master Confirmation”) is to confirm the terms and conditions of the
Transaction entered into between Party A and Party B on the Trade Date specified below (the “Transaction”). This Master Confirmation supplements, forms part of and is subject to, the ISDA Master Agreement dated as of
28 December, 2016, as amended and supplemented from time to time (the “Agreement”), between Merrill Lynch International (“Party A”) and SPDR® Long Dollar
Gold Trust, a series of World Currency Gold Trust (“Party B”). All provisions contained in the Agreement govern this Master Confirmation except as expressly modified below. 

The definitions and provisions contained in the 2006 ISDA Definitions (the “2006 Definitions”) and the 2005 ISDA Commodity Definitions,
including the Sub-Annexes thereto, all as amended, supplemented, updated, and restated from time to time (the “Commodity Definitions”) (as published by the International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc.)
(“ISDA”) (collectively, the “Definitions”) are incorporated into this Confirmation. In the event of any inconsistency between the Definitions and the terms of this Confirmation, this Confirmation will prevail. 

This Confirmation evidences a complete and binding agreement between MLI and Counterparty as to the terms of the Transaction to which this Confirmation
relates. Unless expressly defined in this Confirmation, defined terms herein shall have the same definition as set out in the ISDA. 
 Maximum
Delivery Amounts: 
  

	(a)	Daily Maximum Bullion Delivery Value. This Master Confirmation shall provide for Transactions on any one Pricing Day up to but not exceeding the Daily Maximum Bullion Delivery Value. In the event that the
Daily Delivery Amount on any one Pricing Day exceeds the Daily Maximum Bullion Delivery Value; then Party A shall be entitled to refuse to accept to enter into any further Transactions hereunder in respect of that Pricing Day. 


 

	(b)	Aggregate Maximum Bullion Delivery Value. This Master Confirmation shall provide for Transactions up to but not exceeding the Aggregate Maximum Bullion Delivery Value. In the event that the cumulative
Daily Delivery Amount for all Transactions entered into under this Master Confirmation exceeds the Aggregate Maximum Bullion Delivery Value; Party A shall be entitled to refuse to accept to enter into any further Transactions hereunder.


 Where: 
 “Daily Maximum Bullion
Delivery Value” means USD 250,000,000 (two-hundred-fifty-million), where the Daily Delivery Amount in respect of Transactions on any one Pricing Day shall have been converted into a USD value using the Bullion/U.S. Dollar Exchange Rate on
the relevant Pricing Day; and 
 “Aggregate Maximum Bullion Delivery Value” means USD 4,000,000,000 (four billion) calculated by converting
the sum of the Daily Delivery Amount for each Pricing Day up to and including the relevant Pricing Day into a USD value using the Bullion/U.S. Dollar Exchange Rate on the relevant Pricing Day. For the avoidance of doubt, the sum of the Daily
Delivery Amount for each Pricing Day shall equal the total number of ounces of Bullion held by the Fund as a consequence of transactions entered into between the Parties under this Master Confirmation. 

For the avoidance of doubt, each of the above limits shall operate severally and not jointly. And provided that, in the event the these provisions
shall apply, the Parties shall enter into discussions with a view to agreeing between them the terms of a new Master Confirmation and a new Daily Maximum Bullion Delivery Value and Aggregate Maximum Bullion Delivery Value which shall apply to that
Master Confirmation. On or before each anniversary of this Master Confirmation and otherwise upon the reasonable request of Party B, Party A agrees to use reasonable good faith efforts to increase the Daily Maximum Bullion Delivery Value and/or
Aggregate Maximum Bullion Delivery Value in order to accommodate Party B’s business needs and to the extent such increase will not result in a materially adverse economic effect for Party A in respect of the Transactions.

use all reasonable endeavours to agree the terms and conditions of a new Master Confirmation or other agreement between the parties for the provision of services relating to the Global Currency Gold Fund on and from the end date of this Master
Confirmation.

		    	“Price Source Disruption” means in respect of any Pricing Day and the Index, either: (i) the Index is not published and available on the relevant display page of the Bloomberg or Reuters Monitor Money Rates
service, or any successor at 5:00 p.m. London time on such Pricing Day; or (ii) the Calculation Agent determines that the level of the Index displayed on the relevant display page of the Bloomberg or Reuters Monitor Money Rates service, or any
successor, on such Pricing Day is manifestly incorrect.
		
		    	“Hedging Disruption/Change in Law” means that, in relation to a Transaction:
		
		    	 (i)     (A) due to the adoption, enactment, ratification or
promulgation of or any change in any applicable law or regulation (including, without limitation, any tax law), or (B) due to the promulgation of or any change in the interpretation by any court, tribunal or regulatory authority of any applicable
law or regulation (including any action taken by a taxing authority), Party A determines acting in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner that it has become impossible or impracticable for Party A to hold; acquire or dispose of any Hedge
Position relating to such Transaction; or

		
		    	 (ii)    Party A determines acting in good faith and in a commercially
reasonable manner that it is unable, after using commercially reasonable efforts, to (A) acquire, establish, re-establish, substitute, maintain, unwind or dispose of any Hedge Position relating to such Transaction, or (B) realize, recover or remit
the proceeds of any such transaction(s) or Hedge Position (and for this purpose Party A and Party B acknowledge and agree that a Hedging Disruption/Change in Law will occur under this sub-paragraph (ii) if Party A determines in good faith and in a
commercially reasonable manner that it is unable, after using commercially reasonable efforts, to do either or both of (A) and (B) above in New York notwithstanding that Party A may be able to do so in another location or jurisdiction);
or

		
		    	 (iii)  For any reason or cause whatsoever: (a) Party A will incur a materially
increased cost in performing its obligations under such Transaction (including, without limitation, due to any increase in tax liability, decrease in tax benefit or other adverse effect on its tax position) in any jurisdiction in which Party A
chooses to perform its obligations under such Transaction which must also be one or more of the following jurisdictions: United States of America, United Kingdom, Japan, Hong Kong and any other jurisdiction which is the issuer of a Currency used in
the Index, or any other jurisdiction notified by Party A to Party B from time to time in connection with which Party B has provided its consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); (b) Party A has notified Party B or Party
B’s agent by e-mail or fax (and in the case of notification to Party B’s agent only, confirmed by telephone) within one Local Business Day of a Party A Relevant Person becoming aware of such materially increased cost of (i) such materially
increased



  
 31 









			
		    	 cost, (ii) the date from which such materially increased cost would become applicable, and (iii) the revised
terms of the relevant Transaction which would compensate Party A for such materially increased cost (as determined by Party A in a commercially reasonable manner); and (c) Party B does not agree to such revised terms or fails to respond to
Party A in connection with such revised terms by the Notification Time. For the purposes of this sub-clause (c), “Notification Time” means six hours following the time of receipt of notification by Party B or Party B’s agent,
as applicable, in accordance with (b) above or, if later, 10:00 a.m. (London time) on the Local Business Day falling immediately prior to the date specified in the notification referred to in (b) (ii) above as the date from which the materially
increased cost set out therein will become applicable; provided that, if the date on which the notification referred to in (b) above is received by Party A falls on or after the Local Business Day falling immediately prior to the date set out in
that notification as the date from which the materially increased cost will become applicable, the Notification Time shall be 60 minutes following the time of receipt of notification by Party B or Party B’s agent, as applicable, in accordance
with (b) above or, if later, 2:30 pm (London time) on that day.

		
		    	If a Hedging Disruption/Change in Law does not occur on account of Party B agreeing to the revised terms of the relevant Transaction as notified in accordance with (b) above but Party B subsequently gives written notice that it
no longer wishes to continue that Transaction on such revised terms to Party A prior to 10:00 a.m. (London time) on a Local Business Day; then a Hedging Disruption/Change in Law will occur on that Local Business Day.

		    	“Hedge Positions” means any purchase, sale, entry into or maintenance of one or more (i) foreign exchange positions or contracts or (ii) Bullion positions; or (iii) any other instruments or arrangements
(howsoever described), in each case by Party A in order to hedge, individually (in whole or in part) or on a portfolio basis, the Transaction. Without limitation to the generality of the foregoing , it is acknowledged and agreed that Party A may
enter into Hedge Positions traded in locations outside its jurisdiction of incorporation (including, without limitation, New York) and/or through affiliates located outside Party A’s jurisdiction of incorporation (including, without limitation,
New York). Inability to enter into such Hedge Positions may result in a Hedging Disruption/Change in Law occurring; and
		
		    	“Party A Relevant Person” means an employee of Party A with the position of Vice-President, Executive Director or Managing Director (or other substantively equivalent title) of Party A and who is directly
involved in or has responsibility for the trading or administration of Transactions at the time that such employee becomes aware of the relevant increased cost.
		
		    	“Bullion Settlement Disruption” means, in respect of the Index and a Transaction, that: (i) the Daily Delivery Amount relevant to such Transaction is not deliverable on the day which would have been the DDA
Delivery Date applicable to that Daily Delivery Amount on account of such day being a Bullion Settlement Disruption Day the (“Scheduled Delivery Date”); and (ii) each of the four immediately following Bullion Business Days is also a
Bullion Settlement Disruption Day in respect of the applicable Bullion. The date of the occurrence of a Bullion Settlement Disruption shall be such fourth Bullion Business Day immediately following the Scheduled Delivery Date.
		
		    	A “Bullion Business Day” for this purpose shall be a Business Day on which the market operated by the Market Association for Bullion is open for the transaction of business.
		
	 Disruption Fallbacks:
	    	For the purposes of this Master Confirmation and any Transaction, the “Disruption Fallbacks” specified for the purposes of the provisions of Section 7.5 of the Commodity Definitions shall not apply, and shall be
replaced with the following “Disruption Fallbacks” as set out below:
		
		    	 (i)     For the purposes of a “Price Source Disruption”, the
“Disruption Fallback” shall be “Fallback Reference Price”.

		
		    	 (ii)    For the purposes of a “Hedging Disruption/Change in Law”,
the “Disruption Fallback” shall be “Hedging Disruption/Change in Law Termination”.

		
		    	 (iii)  For the purposes of a “Bullion Settlement Disruption”, the
“Disruption Fallback” shall be “Cancellation and Payment”.

		
		    	The following definitions shall apply for the purposes of the “Disruption Fallbacks” set out above:
		
		    	“Fallback Reference Price” means, in relation to a Price Source Disruption and a Pricing Day, that the Calculation Agent will determine the “Closing Level” (being the closing level of
the


  
 32 









			
		    	Index determined in accordance with the Index Rules in respect of such Pricing Day) as: (a) the Closing Level of the Index as displayed on the relevant display page of the Reuters Monitor Money Rates Service, or any successor at
5:00 p.m. London time on the relevant Pricing Day; or (b) if such Closing Level is not so displayed at such time or the Calculation Agent determines that the level of the Index as so displayed is manifestly incorrect the Closing Level of the Index
in respect of such Pricing Day as may be notified to the Calculation Agent at its request by the Index Provider on and in respect of such Pricing Day. In the event that the Index cannot be determined pursuant to the preceding sentence and if a Price
Source Disruption continues for a period of five (5) consecutive Pricing Days: (a) the Transaction will terminate on such fifth (5th) Pricing Day with immediate effect; (b) any Daily Delivery
Amount(s) then outstanding and undelivered on and including such Pricing Day and attributable to the relevant Terminated Transaction on such date shall continue to be Delivered on each successive DDA Delivery Date until no further Daily Delivery
Amount remains outstanding, in accordance with Part 8 of the Agreement as a Final Delivery Amount; and (c) subject to the fulfilment of the Delivery of such Final Delivery Amount as per (b) above, each Party shall be discharged from all further
obligations in respect of any Delivery or otherwise in respect of that Transaction.
		
		    	“Hedging Disruption/Change in Law Termination” means, in respect of a Transaction which is subject to Hedging Disruption/Change in Law: (a) the Daily Delivery Amount determined in respect of the Pricing Day on
which Party A notifies Party B of the occurrence or existence of such Hedging Disruption/Change in Law shall be deemed to be the Final Delivery Amount in accordance with Part 8 of the Agreement in respect of the Transaction so affected; (b) the
Transaction shall terminate on such Pricing Day; and (c) subject to the fulfilment of the Delivery of such Final Delivery Amount as per (b) above, each Party shall be discharged from all further obligations in respect of any Delivery or otherwise in
respect of that Transaction.
		
		    	“Cancellation and Payment” means, if a Bullion Settlement Disruption occurs with respect to a Transaction then an Additional Termination Event will be deemed to occur without any notice or further action being
required. That Transaction shall be the sole Affected Transaction, the Early Termination Date shall be the date of the occurrence of the Bullion Settlement Disruption and the Party which (in the absence of the Bullion Settlement Disruption) would
have been required to make the relevant Delivery shall be the sole Affected Party. For the avoidance of doubt, the Early Termination Amount in respect of the aforementioned Additional Termination Event shall be payable in Bullion at such time as
Bullion can be delivered.

	 Re:
	    	Master Confirmation of Transaction
		
	 MLI Reference:
	    	[●]

 The purpose of this letter (this “Master Confirmation”) is to confirm the terms and conditions of the
Transaction entered into between Party A and Party B on the Trade Date specified below (the “Transaction”). This Master Confirmation supplements, forms part of and is subject to, the ISDA Master Agreement dated as of
28 December, 2016, as amended and supplemented from time to time (the “Agreement”), between Merrill Lynch International (“Party A”) and SPDR® Long Dollar
Gold Trust, a series of World Currency Gold Trust (“Party B”). All provisions contained in the Agreement govern this Master Confirmation except as expressly modified below. 

The definitions and provisions contained in the 2006 ISDA Definitions (the “2006 Definitions”) and the 2005 ISDA Commodity Definitions,
including the Sub-Annexes thereto, all as amended, supplemented, updated, and restated from time to time (the “Commodity Definitions”) (as published by the International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc.)
(“ISDA”) (collectively, the “Definitions”) are incorporated into this Confirmation. In the event of any inconsistency between the Definitions and the terms of this Confirmation, this Confirmation will prevail. 

This Confirmation evidences a complete and binding agreement between MLI and Counterparty as to the terms of the Transaction to which this Confirmation
relates. Unless expressly defined in this Confirmation, defined terms herein shall have the same definition as set out in the ISDA. 
 Maximum
Delivery Amounts: 
  

	(a)	Daily Maximum Bullion Delivery Value. This Master Confirmation shall provide for Transactions on any one Pricing Day up to but not exceeding the Daily Maximum Bullion Delivery Value. In the event that the
Daily Delivery Amount on any one Pricing Day exceeds the Daily Maximum Bullion Delivery Value; then Party A shall be entitled to refuse to accept to enter into any further Transactions hereunder in respect of that Pricing Day. 


 

	(b)	Aggregate Maximum Bullion Delivery Value. This Master Confirmation shall provide for Transactions up to but not exceeding the Aggregate Maximum Bullion Delivery Value. In the event that the cumulative
Daily Delivery Amount for all Transactions entered into under this Master Confirmation exceeds the Aggregate Maximum Bullion Delivery Value; Party A shall be entitled to refuse to accept to enter into any further Transactions hereunder.


 Where: 
 “Daily Maximum Bullion
Delivery Value” means USD 250,000,000 (two-hundred-fifty-million), where the Daily Delivery Amount in respect of Transactions on any one Pricing Day shall have been converted into a USD value using the Bullion/U.S. Dollar Exchange Rate on
the relevant Pricing Day; and 
 “Aggregate Maximum Bullion Delivery Value” means USD 4,000,000,000 (four billion) calculated by converting
the sum of the Daily Delivery Amount for each Pricing Day up to and including the relevant Pricing Day into a USD value using the Bullion/U.S. Dollar Exchange Rate on the relevant Pricing Day. For the avoidance of doubt, the sum of the Daily
Delivery Amount for each Pricing Day shall equal the total number of ounces of Bullion held by the Fund as a consequence of transactions entered into between the Parties under this Master Confirmation. 

For the avoidance of doubt, each of the above limits shall operate severally and not jointly. And provided that, in the event the these provisions
shall apply, the Parties shall enter into discussions with a view to agreeing between them the terms of a new Master Confirmation and a new Daily Maximum Bullion Delivery Value and Aggregate Maximum Bullion Delivery Value which shall apply to that
Master Confirmation. On or before each anniversary of this Master Confirmation and otherwise upon the reasonable request of Party B, Party A agrees to use reasonable good faith efforts to increase the Daily Maximum Bullion Delivery Value and/or
Aggregate Maximum Bullion Delivery Value in order to accommodate Party B’s business needs and to the extent such increase will not result in a materially adverse economic effect for Party A in respect of the Transactions. 

Term of this Master Confirmation. This Master Confirmation shall continue in effect for a period of two and a half years (the
“Term”) from the date of the Agreement (the “Confirmation Expiration Date”). At least six months prior to the end date of this Master Confirmation, the Parties shall acting in good faith use all reasonable
endeavours to agree the terms and conditions of a new Master

Confirmation or other agreement between the parties for the provision of services relating to the Global Currency Gold Fund on and from the end date of this Master Confirmation.

		    	 (ii)    Hedging Disruption/Change in Law; and

		    	“Price Source Disruption” means in respect of any Pricing Day and the Index, either: (i) the Index is not published and available on the relevant display page of the Bloomberg or Reuters Monitor Money Rates
service, or any successor at 5:00 p.m. London time on such Pricing Day; or (ii) the Calculation Agent determines that the level of the Index displayed on the relevant display page of the Bloomberg or Reuters Monitor Money Rates service, or any
successor, on such Pricing Day is manifestly incorrect.
		
		    	“Hedging Disruption/Change in Law” means that, in relation to a Transaction:
		
		    	 (i)     (A) due to the adoption, enactment, ratification or
promulgation of or any change in any applicable law or regulation (including, without limitation, any tax law), or (B) due to the promulgation of or any change in the interpretation by any court, tribunal or regulatory authority of any applicable
law or regulation (including any action taken by a taxing authority), Party A determines acting in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner that it has become impossible or impracticable for Party A to hold; acquire or dispose of any Hedge
Position relating to such Transaction; or

		
		    	 (ii)    Party A determines acting in good faith and in a commercially
reasonable manner that it is unable, after using commercially reasonable efforts, to (A) acquire, establish, re-establish, substitute, maintain, unwind or dispose of any Hedge Position relating to such Transaction, or (B) realize, recover or remit
the proceeds of any such transaction(s) or Hedge Position (and for this purpose Party A and Party B acknowledge and agree that a Hedging Disruption/Change in Law will occur under this sub-paragraph (ii) if Party A determines in good faith and in a
commercially reasonable manner that it is unable, after using commercially reasonable efforts, to do either or both of (A) and (B) above in New York notwithstanding that Party A may be able to do so in another location or jurisdiction);
or

		
		    	 (iii)  For any reason or cause whatsoever: (a) Party A will incur a materially
increased cost in performing its obligations under such Transaction (including, without limitation, due to any increase in tax liability, decrease in tax benefit or other adverse effect on its tax position) in any jurisdiction in which Party A
chooses to perform its obligations under such Transaction which must also be one or more of the following jurisdictions: United States of America, United Kingdom, Japan, Hong Kong and any other jurisdiction which is the issuer of a Currency used in
the Index, or any other jurisdiction notified by Party A to Party B from time to time in connection with which Party B has provided its consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); (b) Party A has notified Party B or Party

increased cost, (ii) the date from which such materially increased cost would become applicable, and (iii) the revised terms of the relevant Transaction which would compensate Party A for such materially increased cost (as determined by Party A in a
commercially reasonable manner); and (c) Party B does not agree to such revised terms or fails to respond to Party

referred to in (b) above is received by Party A falls on or after the Local Business Day falling immediately prior to the date set out in that notification as the date from which the materially increased cost will become applicable, the Notification
Time shall be 60 minutes following the time of receipt of notification by Party B or Party B’s agent, as applicable, in accordance with (b) above or, if later, 2:30 pm (London time) on that day.

		
		  	If a Hedging Disruption/Change in Law does not occur on account of Party B agreeing to the revised terms of the relevant Transaction as notified in accordance with (b) above but Party B subsequently gives written notice that it
no longer wishes to continue that Transaction on such revised terms to Party A prior to 10:00 a.m. (London time) on a Local Business Day; then a Hedging Disruption/Change in Law will occur on that Local Business Day.
		
		  	For this purpose:
		
		  	“Hedge Positions” means any purchase, sale, entry into or maintenance of one or more (i) foreign exchange positions or contracts or (ii) Bullion positions; or (iii) any other instruments or arrangements
(howsoever described), in each case by Party A in order to hedge, individually (in whole or in part) or on a portfolio basis, the Transaction. Without limitation to the generality of the foregoing , it is acknowledged and agreed that Party A may
enter into Hedge Positions traded in locations outside its jurisdiction of incorporation (including, without limitation, New York) and/or through affiliates located outside Party A’s jurisdiction of incorporation (including, without limitation,
New York). Inability to enter into such Hedge Positions may result in a Hedging Disruption/Change in Law occurring; and
		
		  	“Party A Relevant Person” means an employee of Party A with the position of Vice-President, Executive Director or Managing Director (or other substantively equivalent title) of Party A and who is directly
involved in or has responsibility for the trading or administration of Transactions at the time that such employee becomes aware of the relevant increased cost.
		
		  	“Bullion Settlement Disruption” means, in respect of the Index and a Transaction, that: (i) the Daily Delivery Amount relevant to such Transaction is not deliverable on the day which would have been the DDA
Delivery Date applicable to that Daily Delivery Amount on account of such day being a Bullion Settlement Disruption Day the (“Scheduled Delivery Date”); and (ii) each of the four immediately following Bullion Business Days is also a
Bullion Settlement Disruption Day in respect of the applicable Bullion. The date of the occurrence of a Bullion Settlement Disruption shall be such fourth Bullion Business Day immediately following the Scheduled Delivery Date.
		
		  	A “Bullion Business Day” for this purpose shall be a Business Day on which the market operated by the Market Association for Bullion is open for the transaction of business.
		
	 Disruption Fallbacks:
	  	For the purposes of this Master Confirmation and any Transaction, the “Disruption Fallbacks” specified for the purposes of the provisions of Section 7.5 of the Commodity Definitions shall not apply, and shall be
replaced with the following “Disruption Fallbacks” as set out below:
		
		  	 (i)     For the purposes of a “Price Source Disruption”, the
“Disruption Fallback” shall be “Fallback Reference Price”.

		
		  	 (ii)    For the purposes of a “Hedging Disruption/Change in Law”,
the “Disruption Fallback” shall be “Hedging Disruption/Change in Law Termination”.

		
		  	 (iii)  For the purposes of a “Bullion Settlement Disruption”, the
“Disruption Fallback” shall be “Cancellation and Payment”.

		
		  	The following definitions shall apply for the purposes of the “Disruption Fallbacks” set out above:
		
		  	“Fallback Reference Price” means, in relation to a Price Source Disruption and a Pricing Day, that the Calculation Agent will determine the “Closing Level” (being the closing level of the Index
determined in accordance with the Index Rules in respect of such Pricing Day) as: (a) the Closing Level of the Index as displayed on the relevant display page of the Reuters Monitor Money Rates Service, or any successor at 5:00 p.m. London time on
the relevant Pricing Day; or (b) if such Closing Level is not so displayed at such time or the Calculation Agent determines


  
 4 









			
		  	that the level of the Index as so displayed is manifestly incorrect the Closing Level of the Index in respect of such Pricing Day as may be notified to the Calculation Agent at its request by the Index Provider on and in respect
of such Pricing Day. In the event that the Index cannot be determined pursuant to the preceding sentence and if a Price Source Disruption continues for a period of five (5) consecutive Pricing Days: (a) the Transaction will terminate on
such fifth (5th) Pricing Day with immediate effect; (b) any Daily Delivery Amount(s) then outstanding and undelivered on and including such Pricing Day and attributable to the relevant
Terminated Transaction on such date shall continue to be Delivered on each successive DDA Delivery Date until no further Daily Delivery Amount remains outstanding, in accordance with Part 8 of the Agreement as a Final Delivery Amount; and
(c) subject to the fulfilment of the Delivery of such Final Delivery Amount as per (b) above, each Party shall be discharged from all further obligations in respect of any Delivery or otherwise in respect of that Transaction.
		
		  	“Hedging Disruption/Change in Law Termination” means, in respect of a Transaction which is subject to Hedging Disruption/Change in Law: (a) the Daily Delivery Amount determined in respect of the Pricing Day
on which Party A notifies Party B of the occurrence or existence of such Hedging Disruption/Change in Law shall be deemed to be the Final Delivery Amount in accordance with Part 8 of the Agreement in respect of the Transaction so affected; (b) the
Transaction shall terminate on such Pricing Day; and (c) subject to the fulfilment of the Delivery of such Final Delivery Amount as per (b) above, each Party shall be discharged from all further obligations in respect of any Delivery or otherwise in
respect of that Transaction.
		
		  	“Cancellation and Payment” means, if a Bullion Settlement Disruption occurs with respect to a Transaction then an Additional Termination Event will be deemed to occur without any notice or further action being
required. That Transaction shall be the sole Affected Transaction, the Early Termination Date shall be the date of the occurrence of the Bullion Settlement Disruption and the Party which (in the absence of the Bullion Settlement Disruption) would
have been required to make the relevant Delivery shall be the sole Affected Party. For the avoidance of doubt, the Early Termination Amount in respect of the aforementioned Additional Termination Event shall be payable in Bullion at such time as
Bullion can be delivered.
