Marks (other than to the relevant LICENSEE ETF(s)); and (B) such sublicense shall be in writing and shall by its terms immediately

		3.3.	LICENSEE shall remain obligated as a principal (as distinguished
from being obligated as a surety) under the terms of this Master Agreement and each ETF License with respect to any actions taken
by any Permitted Sublicensee or by any Affiliate of LICENSEE or any LICENSEE ETF in connection with this Master Agreement, any
ETF License and/or any Sublicense Agreement. Failure by LICENSEE to comply with the provisions of this Section
3 shall be deemed a material breach of this Master Agreement. 



 


		3.4.	LICENSEE shall give prompt written notice to S&P of the expiration
or termination of any Sublicense Agreement, and shall give S&P at least three (3) months advance written notice of any such
expiration or termination, provided that if termination with less than three (3) months notice is necessary to prevent infringement
of any S&P Marks, LICENSEE shall give S&P such advance written notice as is reasonably practicable under the circumstances.



 


		4.	Listing of LICENSEE ETFs.



 


		4.1.	LICENSEE acknowledges and agrees that, as a condition to LICENSEE’s
engagement of an Organized Securities Market to serve as the primary listing exchange for any LICENSEE ETF, S&P may (but is
not obliged to) require that such Organized Securities Market first enter into a commercially reasonable written license agreement
with S&P pursuant to which S&P shall grant to such Organized Securities Market appropriate rights to use the relevant S&P
Marks and/or S&P Indices. 



 


		4.2.	LICENSEE shall not cause any LICENSEE ETF Shares to be Listed on
an Organized Securities Market in the absence of such a license agreement, if required by S&P pursuant to Section
4.1, between S&P and such Organized Securities Market, and the Parties shall use commercially reasonable
efforts to cooperate to obtain any such agreement.



 


		4.3.	Further, LICENSEE acknowledges that S&P requires Organized Securities
Markets to use their best efforts to protect the goodwill and reputation of S&P and of the S&P Marks and S&P Indices
in connection with their Listing of ETFs based on any S&P Index. Material breach of this obligation by any Organized Securities
Market may result in termination of its license from S&P.



 


		5.	License and Other Fees.



 


		5.1.	License Fees. In consideration for the rights granted under
this Master Agreement and any ETF License entered into hereunder, including the License, LICENSEE shall pay S&P the license
fees set forth in Paragraph I (“License Fees”).



 


		5.2.	All License Fees due to S&P under this Master Agreement and any
ETF License entered into hereunder (a) are exclusive of any sales and/or value added taxes and delivery costs, which shall
be the responsibility of LICENSEE, (b) are non-refundable, and (c) unless otherwise set forth in Paragraph
I, are payable in US Dollars.



 


		5.3.	If any of the License Fees are subject to withholding taxes by a
country other than the country of tax residence of S&P (“Home Country”), LICENSEE shall provide to S&P
an original receipt from the tax authorities of such foreign country evidencing the amount of tax withheld. Such receipt shall
be furnished at the time such fee is paid to S&P or as soon thereafter as is practicable. If S&P is denied a foreign tax
credit due to the failure of LICENSEE to provide satisfactory evidence of the amount withheld, LICENSEE shall pay to S&P an
amount sufficient to compensate, on an after tax basis, for the credit denied. If a tax treaty exists between the Home Country
and the foreign country that is subjecting the fees to withholding taxes, S&P hereby elects to apply the withholding rate applicable
under such tax treaty. If LICENSEE requires a special certificate from S&P to make the election,





    	Page 7 of 28

*** Confidential treatment requested pursuant to a request for confidential treatment filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Omitted portions have been filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission.




    	 



    

LICENSEE will notify S&P and
the certificate will be provided by S&P at the time of execution of this Master Agreement.


 


		5.4.	S&P shall have the right to modify the license fees payable under
the ETF License at the start of each Renewal Term by providing LICENSEE sixty (60) days written notice of such modification. Further,
S&P shall also have the right to pass on any additional charges from any securities exchanges or other sources related to LICENSEE’s
use of the S&P Indices hereunder; provided, however, S&P has provided at least sixty (60) days’ prior written notice
of any such charges, except when S&P may not be able to do so if a charge is imposed by a securities exchange or other
source without giving S&P sufficient time to notify LICENSEE in advance, in which case S&P shall provide as much notice
as is commercially practicable under the circumstances with respect to such securities exchange or other source charge. If LICENSEE
objects to such license fee modification and/or pass through of additional charges from a securities exchange or other source,
LICENSEE shall have the right to terminate this Agreement without penalty by providing S&P written notice of termination within
thirty (30) days of receipt of notification of the modification (time being of the essence in such respect) such notice to be effective
within one hundred and eighty (180) days after it is served.



 


		6.	Audit.



 


		6.1.	LICENSEE shall at all times during the Term and for so long as any
LICENSEE ETFs are outstanding and continuing for a period of thirty-six (36) months thereafter (“Audit Period”),
maintain full and accurate records (in accordance with standard generally-accepted accounting practices) of all matters relating
to the use of the S&P Indices and S&P Marks by LICENSEE and/or any Permitted Sublicensee and the calculation of the License
Fees due to S&P under this Master Agreement and any ETF License entered into hereunder (“Records”) for the
most recent thirty-six (36) months.



 


		6.2.	During the Audit Period, S&P shall have the right, during normal
business hours and upon reasonable written notice to LICENSEE or the applicable Permitted Sublicensee, to audit at LICENSEE’s
premises identified in Paragraph B or such Permitted Sublicensee’s premises (or such
other premises as may be agreed by S&P) on a confidential basis the relevant Records to the extent reasonably necessary to
(i) determine that any and all License Fees payable to S&P shall have been accurately determined in accordance with
this Master Agreement and the relevant ETF License and (ii) audit the manner and usage of the S&P Indices and S&P
Marks, in each case to confirm that such usage has been in accordance with this Master Agreement and the relevant ETF License and
that all applicable restrictions on use have been observed. The number of physical audits at LICENSEE’s premises is limited
to four (4) per year.



 


		6.3.	S&P’s costs to conduct such audit shall be borne by S&P,
except that LICENSEE shall bear such cost if the audit discloses that LICENSEE has underpaid S&P by five percent (5%) or more
for the period being audited. LICENSEE shall immediately reimburse S&P for any underpayment discovered by such audit.



 


		7.	Term and Termination.



 


		7.1.	Term. This Master License shall commence on the Effective

		7.2.	Termination for Breach. If either Party breaches a material
term or condition of this Master Agreement and/or any ETF License or commits persistent breaches of this Master Agreement and/or
any ETF License (including, without limitation, persistent minor breaches of which the other Party has complained in writing within
a reasonable time after learning thereof), the other Party may terminate the relevant ETF License by giving at least thirty (30)
days prior written notice thereof; provided, however, that such termination shall not take effect if the breaching Party corrects
such breach and serves written notice upon the other Party of such corrective action prior to the effective date of termination.
Termination pursuant to this Section 7.2 will not impair any other rights or remedies of
a Party pursuant to applicable law. 



 


		7.3.	Termination by LICENSEE. LICENSEE may terminate any ETF License,
as it relates to one or more LICENSEE ETFs and the corresponding S&P Indices and S&P Marks, upon at least sixty (60) days

written notice to S&P if: (i) legislation or regulations are adopted or any regulatory or self-regulatory agency issues
an interpretation that, in LICENSEE’s reasonable judgment, materially impairs LICENSEE's ability to market and/or promote
such LICENSEE ETF(s) under such ETF License in all jurisdictions of the Territory; or (ii) any material litigation or regulatory
proceeding regarding such LICENSEE ETF(s) is threatened or commenced against LICENSEE, and LICENSEE reasonably believes that such
litigation or proceeding would have a material and adverse effect upon its ability to market and/or promote such LICENSEE ETF(s)
under such ETF License; or (iii) LICENSEE elects to terminate the public offering or other distribution of such LICENSEE
ETF(s) under such ETF License for any reason.



 


		7.4.	Termination by S&P. In addition to its rights to terminate
pursuant to Section 8, S&P may terminate any ETF License, as it relates to one or more
S&P Indices and/or S&P Marks and the corresponding LICENSEE ETFs: (i) upon at least ninety (90) days (or upon such
lesser period of time if required pursuant to a court order or any applicable law or regulatory requirements) prior written notice
to LICENSEE if legislation or regulations are adopted or any regulatory or self-regulatory agency issues an interpretation or changes
or withdraws any authorizations and/or registrations that, in S&P’s reasonable judgment, materially impairs S&P’s
ability to license and provide such S&P Indices and/or S&P Marks under such ETF License and/or that requires S&P to
obtain a Consent (as described in Section 16.5); or (ii) any litigation or proceeding
is threatened or commenced, and S&P reasonably believes that such litigation or proceeding would have a material and adverse
effect upon such S&P Marks and/or S&P Indices or upon the ability of S&P to perform under this Master Agreement and/or
such ETF License; or (iii) upon written notice to LICENSEE if the actions or failures to act of LICENSEE and/or any Permitted
Sublicensees have caused or threaten imminently to cause material damage or harm to S&P’s reputation or goodwill, provided
that such notice will describe in reasonable detail the nature of the offending action or inaction; or (iv) upon written
notice to LICENSEE in the event of a Change in Control; or (v) upon at least ninety (90) days (or upon such lesser period
of time if required pursuant to a court order or any applicable law or regulatory requirements) prior written notice to LICENSEE
in the event of any termination of S&P’s right to license the S&P Indices and/or S&P Marks of any Third Party
Licensor (it being understood that S&P’s ability to provide such ninety (90) day notice is subject to S&P receiving
sufficient advance notice from the applicable Third Party Licensor of any pending termination of such right). 



 


		7.5.	LICENSEE Obligations Upon Termination. Upon any expiration
or termination of any ETF License, LICENSEE shall immediately cease all use of the S&P Indices and S&P Marks previously





    	Page 9 of 28

*** Confidential treatment requested pursuant to a request for confidential treatment filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Omitted portions have been filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission.




    	 



    

licensed thereunder and affected by
such expiration or termination. At S&P’s request, an authorized officer of LICENSEE shall certify to S&P in writing
that it has fully complied with this requirement.


 


		7.6.	Payment Obligations Upon Termination. In the event of any
expiration or termination of any ETF License, LICENSEE shall pay to S&P any and all unpaid License Fees and other amounts due
under this Master Agreement and such ETF License. The License Fee amounts to be paid in the final calendar year of the Term of
any ETF License shall be computed by prorating the amount of the License Fees on the basis of the number of elapsed days in the
then-current year, up through and including the date of such expiration or termination. 



 


		7.7.	Survival. The following Sections shall survive any expiration
or termination of any ETF License:  (i) Sections 3.2, 5 (but only with respect to
any fees accrued during the Term that remain unpaid), 7.5, 7.6, 7.7, 7.8, 12.1, 12.3, 12.4, 13.1,
13.3, 14, 18, 19 and 21 shall survive in perpetuity; (ii) Section 6 shall
survive for the duration of the Audit Period as provided in such Section; and (iii) Section
15 shall survive for five (5) years after disclosure by either Party to the other of the last item of Confidential Information
under such ETF License and/or this Master Agreement. All other rights and obligations under this Master Agreement (including, without
limitation, the License) and each ETF License shall terminate in respect of such ETF License as of the effective date of expiration
or termination thereof.



 


		7.8.	Consequences of Termination. Termination of any ETF License
shall not affect the continued subsistence of any other ETF License in effect at the time of such termination. Termination of any
ETF License by either Party shall not act as a waiver of any breach of such ETF License and/or this Master Agreement and shall
not act as a release of either Party from any liability for breach of such Party’s obligations under such ETF License and/or
this Master Agreement. Neither Party shall be liable to the other for damages of any kind solely as a result of terminating any
ETF License in accordance with the terms set forth in this Master Agreement and/or such ETF License. Termination of any ETF License
by either Party shall be without prejudice to any other right or remedy of such Party under such ETF License, this Master Agreement
and/or applicable law.



 


		8.	Launch Obligations.



 


		8.1.	LICENSEE (or the applicable Permitted Sublicensee) shall use commercial
reasonable efforts to launch, and have Listed, at least one (1) LICENSEE ETF for each S&P Index on an Organized Securities
Market located in the Territory, by the applicable launch date set forth in Paragraph J1
(“Target Launch Date”). Such Listing shall be on the Designated OSM (if such is designated in the ETF License
at Paragraph J2).



 


		8.2.	Promptly upon the addition of any new index to the definition of
“S&P Indices” in an ETF License pursuant to Section 2.3, the Parties shall
either (i) update and amend Paragraph J1 of the applicable ETF License
with the agreed-upon Target Launch Date in respect of each such new index or (ii) enter into a new or additional
ETF License in such regard.



 


		8.3.	If LICENSEE fails to the meet the relevant Target Launch Date for
any S&P Indices, then S&P has the option, exercisable in its sole discretion, of immediately terminating the License (under
the relevant ETF License) by written notice served upon LICENSEE at any time thereafter and before such launch and Listing actually
occurs and thus of terminating the relevant ETF License with respect to such S&P Indices.



 


		9.	Discontinuation of the S&P Indices.



 


		9.1.	S&P shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to discontinue
the publication of any or all of the S&P Indices (such discontinued indices, individually, a “Discontinued Index”
and collectively, the





    	Page 10 of 28

*** Confidential treatment requested pursuant to a request for confidential treatment filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Omitted portions have been filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission.




    	 



    

“Discontinued Indices”)
and, in such event, to offer a replacement or substitute index therefor (each such index, individually, a “Substitute
Index” and collectively, the “Substitute Indices”). S&P shall have the right, in its sole discretion,
to terminate the relevant ETF License in whole or in part (as applicable) with respect to any Discontinued Index if S&P does
not offer a Substitute Index therefor.


 


		9.2.	In the event that S&P intends to discontinue any of the S&P
Indices, S&P shall give LICENSEE at least ninety (90) days’ prior written notice of such discontinuation, which notice
(“Discontinuation Notice”) shall specify whether a Substitute Index will be made available. LICENSEE shall have
the option, within sixty (60) days after receiving such Discontinuation Notice from S&P, to notify S&P in writing whether
it intends to use the Substitute Index, if any, under the terms of the relevant ETF License. 



 


		9.3.	In the event that LICENSEE does not exercise such option or no Substitute
Index is made available, the relevant ETF License shall terminate as of the date specified in the Discontinuation Notice (or other
notice from S&P), provided that in the case of partial termination, such ETF License shall terminate solely with respect to
the Discontinued Indices. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 9, in
the event the discontinuation of publication of any S&P Index is a result of a determination made by the applicable Third Party
Licensor, S&P shall only be required to provide LICENSEE with notice of such discontinuation to the extent that S&P receives
the relevant notice from such Third Party Licensor. 



 


 


 


		10.	Certain S&P Obligations.



 


		10.1.	In no event shall S&P be obligated to (i) engage in any
marketing or promotional activities in connection with the LICENSEE ETFs, or (ii) make any representation or statement to
investors or prospective investors in connection with the promotion by LICENSEE of the LICENSEE ETFs.



 


		10.2.	S&P will use commercially reasonable efforts to safeguard the
confidentiality of all impending changes in the components or method of computation of any of the S&P Indices until such changes
are publicly disseminated, and will require the same of any agent with whom it has contracted for computation thereof.



 


		10.3.	S&P shall provide LICENSEE with access to certain underlying
data (which data is compiled, calculated and owned by S&P) in connection with the S&P Indices (“Index Data”),
subject to the terms of a separate data subscription agreement by and between S&P and LICENSEE (“Data Subscription
Agreement”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Data Subscription Agreement: (a) LICENSEE may only
use the Index Data during the Term for its internal purposes solely to the extent necessary in order for LICENSEE to exercise the
License rights granted under Section 2.1 and the relevant ETF License and not for any other
purposes or in connection with any other funds or products other than the relevant LICENSEE ETF; and (b) LICENSEE may disseminate
the Index Data corresponding to a particular LICENSEE ETF only (i) as required by applicable law or regulation, (ii)
to permit market makers in the LICENSEE ETF to create or redeem LICENSEE ETF Shares in the course of their duties as market makers,
and (iii) to the pricing agent who provides intraday indicative pricing on the LICENSEE ETF’s market value. In addition,
in the event LICENSEE is required, pursuant to rules or regulations of the United States Securities & Exchange Commission or
a Listed Organized Securities Market, to provide Index Data to any other party that is not included in the immediately preceding
sentence, LICENSEE shall provide S&P with prior written notice of the requirement and any additional information S&P may
reasonably require in order to make a decision as to whether LICENSEE may disseminate the Index Data to such other party and if
so, the terms that should apply to any such dissemination. S&P agrees to permit any addition dissemination as required,





    	Page 11 of 28

*** Confidential treatment requested pursuant to a request for confidential treatment filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Omitted portions have been filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission.




    	 



    

pursuant to rules or regulations
of the United States Securities & Exchange Commission or a Listed Organized Securities Market unless S&P deems, in its
sole discretion that such dissemination presents a material, adverse effect on its Index Data business.


 


		11.	Certain LICENSEE Obligations. 



 


		11.1.	Informational Materials and Quality Control.



 


		11.1.1.	LICENSEE shall submit to S&P for its review and approval all
informational materials pertaining to and to be used in connection with the LICENSEE ETFs, including, where applicable, all prospectuses,
registration statements, advertisements, brochures and promotional and any other similar informational materials (including documents
required to be filed with governmental and regulatory agencies) that in any way use or refer to S&P, the S&P Indices and/or
the S&P Marks (the “Informational Materials”). “Informational Materials” will not include general
references to the LICENSEE ETFs in materials that refer to various products sponsored or advised by LICENSEE or which are otherwise
not specifically related to or created for the LICENSEE ETFs. 



 


		11.1.2.	S&P's approval shall be required with respect to the use of and
description of S&P, the S&P Marks and the S&P Indices. S&P shall notify LICENSEE, by email and/or facsimile transmission
in accordance with Section 21.7, of its approval or disapproval of any Informational Materials
within five (5) days (excluding Saturday, Sunday and national holidays in the Territory or the United States) following receipt
thereof from LICENSEE. Any disapproval shall state S&P's reasons therefor. Any failure by S&P to respond within such five
(5) day period shall be deemed to constitute a waiver of S&P's right to review such Informational Materials. Requests to review
Informational Materials shall be addressed to the person(s) specified in Paragraph L, at
the address specified therein. Once particular Informational Materials have been affirmatively approved by S&P, subsequent
identical or substantially similar Informational Materials that do not alter the use or description of S&P, the S&P Marks,
the S&P Indices or any required disclaimers need not be submitted for further review and approval by S&P.



Without limiting any obligations or
restrictions set forth herein and/or in any ETF License with respect to the use of the S&P Marks, LICENSEE shall ensure that
its use and/or publication of Informational Materials featuring any S&P Marks will be of a quality consistent with then current
uses by LICENSEE of its own trademarks and will be advertised, promoted and provided in accordance with such standard.


 


		11.1.3.	The name of the LICENSEE ETF(s) shall be as set forth in the applicable
ETF License at Paragraph E1. If additional indices are included in the definition of “S&P
Indices” per Section 2.3, the name of the LICENSEE ETF(s) corresponding to such additional
indices shall be set forth in the amended or new ETF License described in Section 2.3.
LICENSEE shall submit to S&P for its review and approval all proposed changes to the names of any LICENSEE ETFs.



 


		11.2.	Resignation As Adviser. LICENSEE shall give S&P prior
written notice, and in any event shall use commercially reasonable efforts to give S&P at least six (6) months prior written
notice, of LICENSEE’s (or, if applicable, the relevant Permitted Sublicensee’s) resignation or termination as investment
adviser, manager, or trustee of any LICENSEE ETFs.



 


		11.3.	Promotional Efforts. LICENSEE shall use its commercially reasonable
efforts to promote, market and sell, or arrange for the promotion, marketing and sale of, the LICENSEE ETFs and to protect the
goodwill and reputation of S&P in connection with its use of the S&P Indices and the S&P Marks. LICENSEE shall not
represent or allow it to be represented by act or omission or otherwise that S&P sponsors, endorses, sells or promotes the
LICENSEE ETFs and/or provides advice in relation thereto.

		11.4.	Compliance with Laws. LICENSEE shall perform its obligations
as investment adviser, manager or trustee of all LICENSEE ETFs in accordance with all applicable laws, rules and regulations. LICENSEE
shall in such performance not do or omit to do any act, matter or thing that may or will place S&P in any capacity in breach
of any applicable laws, rules and/or regulations.



 


		11.5.	LICENSEE shall use the following notice when referring to the S&P
Indices or the S&P Marks in any Informational Material or a translation in the language of the concerned documentation:



 


“The "[Index]"
is a product of S&P Dow Jones Indices LLC or its affiliates (“SPDJI”) and [Third Party Licensor], and has
been licensed for use by [LICENSEE]. Standard & Poor’s® and S&P® are registered trademarks of Standard
& Poor’s Financial Services LLC (“S&P”); Dow Jones® is a registered trademark of Dow Jones Trademark
Holdings LLC (“Dow Jones”); and these trademarks have been licensed for use by SPDJI and sublicensed for certain purposes
by [LICENSEE]. [Third Party Licensor’s Trademark(s)] are trademarks of the [Third Party Licensor] and
have been licensed for use by SPDJI and [LICENSEE]. [LICENSEE ETF] is not sponsored, endorsed, sold or promoted by
SPDJI, Dow Jones, S&P, their respective affiliates, or [Third Party Licensor] and none of such parties make any representation
regarding the advisability of investing in such product(s) nor do they have any liability for any errors, omissions, or interruptions
of the [Index].”


 


or such similar language as may be
approved in advance in writing by S&P, it being understood that (i) such notice need only refer to the specific S&P
Marks referred to in the Informational Material; (ii) such notice may need to include additional S&P Marks, where relevant;
and (iii) that such notice may need to account for S&P’s obligations to its Third Party Licensors.


 


		12.	Ownership and Protection of the S&P Marks.



 


		12.1.	LICENSEE acknowledges and agrees that the S&P Marks, and all
rights, registrations and entitlements thereto, together with all applications, renewals, extensions and other filings relating
thereto, are and will remain the exclusive property of S&P (or its Third Party Licensors as the case may be), and that all
goodwill that attaches to the S&P Marks as a result of the use of such marks will redound to the exclusive benefit of S&P
(or its Third Party Licensors as the case may be).



 


		12.2.	During the Term, S&P will use commercially reasonable efforts
to maintain in full force and effect the existing registrations of the S&P Marks (if any) already registered in the Territory,
other than S&P Marks licensed to S&P by Third Party Licensors. LICENSEE will reasonably cooperate with S&P (at S&P’s
expense) in the maintenance of such registrations and will take such actions and execute such instruments as S&P may from time
to time reasonably request toward such end. Other than in respect of S&P Marks licensed to S&P by Third Party Licensors,
S&P shall at its own expense and sole discretion exercise S&P’s common law and/or statutory rights against infringement
of the S&P Marks, copyrights and other proprietary rights.



 


		12.3.	The use of the S&P Marks pursuant to the License shall be in
accordance with any relevant trademark usage guidelines that S&P may communicate to LICENSEE from time to time in writing or
by email or facsimile.



 


		12.4.	LICENSEE shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to protect
the goodwill and reputation of S&P, the Third Party Licensors (if any), the S&P Indices and the S&P Marks in connection
with its use of the S&P Indices and the S&P Marks under this Master Agreement and each ETF License and otherwise in connection
with its performance under this Master Agreement and each ETF License. At no time during or after the Term shall LICENSEE do or
cause to be done any act or thing disparaging, disputing, attacking, challenging, impairing, diluting, or in any way tending to
harm the reputation or goodwill associated with S&P, the S&P Indices, or the S&P Marks.

		12.5.	Other than as expressly permitted by the License granted to LICENSEE
under the relevant ETF License and this Master Agreement: (i) LICENSEE shall keep the S&P Marks separate and distinct
and not alter, modify, or commingle the S&P Marks or any part or parts thereof with LICENSEE’s or any third party marks
without the prior written approval of S&P; and (ii) LICENSEE shall not use, or permit to be used, any trademark that
contains any S&P Mark or is confusingly similar to or likely to cause confusion with any S&P Mark.



 


		12.6.	If at any time S&P reasonably determines that LICENSEE is not
using the S&P Indices or the S&P Marks in accordance with the terms of this Master Agreement and/or any ETF License, S&P
will give written notice to LICENSEE thereof. Upon receipt of such notice, LICENSEE will promptly take steps to be certain that
its usage of the S&P Indices and the S&P Marks complies with this Master Agreement and such ETF License. 



 


		12.7.	Except as otherwise expressly provided in an ETF License, LICENSEE
shall not use any S&P Mark or portion thereof as part of or the whole of a company name or trade name.



 


		12.8.	LICENSEE shall not use any S&P Mark in a way that implies S&P’s,
its Third Party Licensors’ (including, without limitation, Dow Jones) or their respective affiliates’ sponsorship,
endorsement, promotion or sale of the ETFs. By way of example, without limitation, and without limiting any rights of S&P set
forth herein, if an S&P Mark is included in the name of an ETF, LICENSEE shall clearly identify itself as the sponsor, promoter
and/or seller of such ETF, as applicable, in the name of such ETF and the use of the S&P Marks in the Informational Materials
with respect to the ETF shall display the S&P Marks no more prominently than LICENSEE’s marks. Further, and without limiting
any rights of S&P set forth herein, if one or more of the S&P Marks is included in the name of an ETF, such name shall
include the name of the relevant Underlying Index (or a mutually agreed abbreviation thereof) together with LICENSEE’s own
mark preceding (and at least as prominent as) the S&P Mark.



		12.9.	LICENSEE shall not use the S&P Marks in a logo or stylized format
in connection with the ETFs.



		13.	Infringement of Rights; Information Materials.



 


		13.1.	If LICENSEE learns of an infringement of S&P’s intellectual
property rights in the S&P Indices or the S&P Marks, or of any use by any person or entity of a trademark, service mark,
or trade name confusingly similar to the S&P Marks, LICENSEE agrees to notify S&P promptly in writing.



 


		13.2.	LICENSEE shall, within a commercially reasonable period of time,
not to exceed sixty (60) days (or upon such lesser period of time if required pursuant to a court order or any legal, contractual
or regulatory requirements), cease use of the S&P Indices and/or S&P Marks (as applicable) upon notice from S&P to
LICENSEE that, in the good faith opinion of S&P, such use of such S&P Indices or S&P Marks might result in any potential
trademark infringement or other liability to a third party.



 


		13.3.	S&P shall retain all rights to bring all actions and proceedings
in connection with any infringement, misuse or unauthorized use of the S&P Marks or S&P Indices at its sole discretion;
provided, however, that S&P shall have no obligation to initiate litigation or any other legal proceedings to prevent any of
the foregoing. If S&P decides to enforce the S&P Marks or S&P Indices against an unauthorized user, all costs incurred
and recoveries made shall be for the account of S&P, and LICENSEE shall render to S&P full and prompt cooperation (at S&P’s
expense) in connection with any such enforcement.

		14.	Proprietary Rights.



 


		14.1.	LICENSEE acknowledges that (i) each of the S&P Indices
is selected, coordinated, arranged and prepared by S&P (and/or its Third Party Licensors, as applicable) through the application
of methods and standards of judgment used and developed through the expenditure of considerable work, time and money by S&P,
(ii) each of the S&P Indices and the S&P Marks is the exclusive property of S&P (and/or its Third Party Licensors,
as applicable), and that S&P (and/or its Third Party Licensors, as applicable) has and shall retain all proprietary rights
therein, and (iii) each S&P Index and its compilation and composition and changes therein are in the control and discretion
of S&P (and/or its Third Party Licensors, as applicable).



 


		14.2.	LICENSEE admits the validity of S&P’s intellectual property
rights in the S&P Indices and the S&P Marks and agrees that any and all goodwill, rights, titles or interests that might
be acquired as a result of the use of the S&P Indices and/or the S&P Marks shall inure to the sole benefit of S&P (and/or
its Third Party Licensors, as applicable). If LICENSEE obtains any rights, titles or interests in or to any of the S&P Indices
or the S&P Marks in the Territory or in any other jurisdiction, LICENSEE hereby assigns all such rights, titles and interests
to S&P and shall execute upon request any additional documents required to effectuate such assignments.



 


		14.3.	S&P reserves all rights with respect to the S&P Indices and
the S&P Marks and any and all other property of S&P, except those rights to the S&P Indices and the S&P Marks expressly
licensed to LICENSEE pursuant to the License under the relevant ETF License and this Master Agreement.



 


		14.4.	LICENSEE acknowledges and agrees that, as against LICENSEE, S&P
has, and at all times during and after the Term shall retain, sole editorial control of the S&P Indices and the compilation
and composition thereof, and that S&P is free to modify the S&P Indices or change the S&P Marks or the name or branding
of the S&P Indices at any time in its sole discretion.



 


		15.	Confidentiality.



 


		15.1.	Each Party shall treat as confidential and shall not disclose or
transmit to any third party documents or other written materials that are marked as “Confidential and Proprietary”
by the providing Party or in respect of which the receiving Party has received from the disclosing Party specific written notice
of its proprietary and confidential nature or which the receiving Party should reasonably understand to be of a proprietary and
confidential nature (“Confidential Information”). The preceding sentence notwithstanding, a Party may divulge
Confidential Information to such Party’s employees, attorneys, accountants, service providers, agents and other professional
advisers of such Party and its Third Party Licensors, in each case provided the disclosee has a need to know such information and
agrees in writing to be bound by confidentiality restrictions which are at least as protective as the provisions set forth in this
Section 15. 



 


		15.2.	Confidential Information shall not include (i) any information
that is available to the public or to the receiving Party from sources other than the providing Party (provided that such source
is not subject to a confidentiality agreement with regard to such information) or (ii) any information that is independently
developed by the receiving Party without use of or reference to information from the providing Party. Notwithstanding the foregoing
either Party may reveal Confidential Information to any regulatory agency or court of competent jurisdiction if such information
to be disclosed is (a) approved in writing by the other Party for disclosure or (b) required by law, regulatory agency
or court order to be disclosed by such Party provided, if permitted by law, that prior written notice of such required disclosure
is given to the other Party and provided further that such Party shall cooperate with the other Party to limit the extent of such
disclosure.



 


		15.3.	Each party acknowledges and agrees that a breach of Section 15 may
cause the other party irreparable injury and damage and that monetary damages may be an inadequate remedy and that the non-





    	Page 15 of 28

*** Confidential treatment requested pursuant to a request for confidential treatment filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Omitted portions have been filed separately with the Securities and Exchange Commission.




    	 



    

breaching party shall be entitled
to seek preliminary and permanent injunctive relief to preserve such confidentiality or limit improper disclosure of such Confidential
Information, but nothing herein shall preclude the non-breaching party from pursuing any other action or remedy for any breach
or threated breach of this Agreement which may be available to such non-breaching party at law or in equity.


 


		16.	Representations and Warranties.



 


		16.1.	On the Effective Date and repeated upon the Commencement Date of
each ETF License, each Party represents and warrants to the other that (i) it is a corporation (or a division thereof) duly
incorporated, or an entity (or a division thereof) duly organized, under the laws of the jurisdiction where it is incorporated
or organized, is validly existing and in good standing under the laws of such jurisdiction, and has and will have at all times
during the Term all requisite power and authority, corporate or otherwise, to perform its obligations under this Master Agreement
and each ETF License entered into hereunder; (ii) the execution and delivery of this Master Agreement and each ETF License
entered into hereunder has been approved by all necessary corporate action; and (iii) this Master Agreement and each ETF
License entered into hereunder is enforceable against such Party in accordance with its terms, except as limited by bankruptcy
and other laws of general application relating to insolvency or the protection of creditors’ rights.



 


		16.2.	On the Effective Date and repeated upon the Commencement Date of
each ETF License, each Party represents and warrants to the other that, on the relevant date, the execution, delivery and performance
by such Party of this Master Agreement and each ETF License entered into hereunder will not (i) conflict with or result
in a breach of or constitute a default under or result in the termination of any contract, agreement or other instrument to which
such Party is a party or by which it is bound or to which any of its assets are subject, or result in the creation of any lien
or encumbrance upon any of said Party’s assets, or impair the ability of the Parties to perform their obligations under the
Agreement; or (ii) conflict with, violate or result in a breach of or constitute a default under any judgment, order, decree,
law, rule, regulation or other restriction of any court, government or governmental agency to which such Party is subject.



 


		16.3.	S&P represents and warrants that it has the right to grant the
License granted to LICENSEE pursuant to any ETF License entered into hereunder or, prior to any applicable Target Launch Date will
have, the right to grant such License to LICENSEE pursuant to such ETF License. 



 


		16.4.	LICENSEE represents and warrants to S&P
that LICENSEE and the ETFs are in compliance, and shall continue to comply, with all applicable laws, rules and regulations, including,
but not limited to, the banking, commodities and securities laws of the U.S. and all jurisdictions within the Territory, in connection
with the creation, offering, Listing, issuance, sale, marketing and promotion of the LICENSEE ETFs or otherwise in connection with
its performance under this Master Agreement and each ETF License entered into hereunder. LICENSEE represents and warrants to S&P
that its use of the S&P Indices and related data licensed hereunder will not violate any agreement applicable to the LICENSEE
or violate any applicable laws, rules or regulations, including without limitation, securities, commodities, and banking laws.



 


		16.5.	Notwithstanding 16.2, it is acknowledged and accepted by LICENSEE
that S&P does not, except in certain countries, possess any license, registration, consent or authorization required by statute
or regulation (“Consent”) from any state or public regulator or financial services supervisor or authority anywhere
in the world (“Regulator”) for S&P to be entitled or permitted to lawfully provide financial and/or investment
advice, to promote or advertise financial and/or investment products or services and/or to facilitate transactions in securities
or investments in respect of or connected to the S&P Indices.

Indemnified Party”) against any and all judgments, damages, costs, losses, expenses or liabilities of any kind (including,
but not limited to, reasonable attorneys' and experts' fees) resulting from any claim, action or proceeding (a “Claim”)
that (1) is instituted by or on behalf of an Organized Securities Market on which a LICENSEE ETF is Listed; or (2) arises
out of or relates to (i) any LICENSEE ETFs, or (ii) any breach or alleged breach by LICENSEE, any Affiliate of LICENSEE
and/or any Permitted Sublicensee of its obligations, representations and/or warranties under this Master Agreement, any ETF License
and/or any Sublicense Agreement, or (iii) any act or omission of LICENSEE, any Affiliate of LICENSEE and/or any Permitted
Sublicensee, or (iv) any violation or alleged violation of applicable laws (including, but not limited to, banking, commodities,

(I) the S&P Indemnified
Party notifying LICENSEE in writing promptly upon learning of any such Claim (but only to the extent such failure adversely affects
the defense of such Claim in a material manner); (II) the S&P Indemnified Party granting LICENSEE reasonable control
of defense and/or settlement of such Claim; and (III) the S&P Indemnified Party reasonably cooperating with LICENSEE,
at LICENSEE’s expense, in the defense thereof. The foregoing notwithstanding, LICENSEE shall not be obligated to indemnify
any S&P Indemnified Party with respect to Claims to the extent arising out of (A) a breach by S&P of its representations
or warranties under Section 16; or (B) S&P’s gross negligence or willful
misconduct. LICENSEE shall periodically reimburse each applicable S&P Indemnified Party for its reasonable indemnifiable expenses
incurred under this Section 18.1. Each applicable S&P Indemnified Party shall have
the right (but not the obligation), at its own expense, to participate in the defense of any Claim against which it is indemnified
hereunder; provided, however, it shall have no right to control the defense, consent to judgment, or agree to settle any such Claim
without the written consent of LICENSEE without waiving the indemnity hereunder. LICENSEE, in the defense of any Claim, except
with the written consent of each applicable S&P Indemnified Party, shall not consent to entry of any judgment or enter into
any settlement which either (i) does not include, as an unconditional term, the grant by the claimant to each applicable
S&P Indemnified Party of a release of all liabilities in respect of such Claim or (ii) otherwise adversely affects the
rights of any applicable S&P Indemnified Party.


 


		18.2.	S&P shall defend, indemnify and hold harmless LICENSEE, its Affiliates
and their respective officers, directors, employees and agents (each, a “LICENSEE Indemnified Party”) against
any and all judgments, damages, costs, losses, expenses or liabilities of any kind (including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys'
and experts' fees) resulting from any Claim that arises out of or relates to any breach or alleged breach by S&P of its representations
or warranties under Section 16 and/or any ETF License; provided, however, that such
obligation to indemnify will be conditioned upon (I) the LICENSEE Indemnified Party notifying S&P in writing promptly
upon learning of any such Claim (but only to the extent such failure adversely affects the defense of such Claim in a material
manner); (II) the LICENSEE Indemnified Party granting S&P control of its defense and/or settlement; and (III)
the LICENSEE Indemnified Party reasonably cooperating with S&P, at S&P’s expense, in the defense thereof. The foregoing
notwithstanding, S&P shall not be obligated to indemnify any LICENSEE Indemnified Party with respect to Claims to the extent
arising out of (A) a breach by LICENSEE, any Affiliate of LICENSEE and/or any Permitted Sublicensee of its obligations,
representations and/or warranties under this Master Agreement, any ETF License and/or any Sublicense Agreement; or (B) the
gross negligence or willful misconduct of LICENSEE, any Affiliate of LICENSEE and/or any Permitted Sublicensee. S&P shall periodically
reimburse each applicable LICENSEE Indemnified Party for its reasonable indemnifiable expenses incurred under this Section
18.2. Each applicable LICENSEE Indemnified Party shall have the right (but not the obligation), at its own expense,
to participate in the defense of any Claim against which it is indemnified hereunder; provided, however, it shall have no right
to control the defense, consent to judgment, or agree to settle any such Claim without the written consent of S&P without waiving
the indemnity hereunder. S&P, in the defense of any Claim, except with the written consent of each applicable LICENSEE Indemnified
Party, shall not consent to entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which either (i) does not include, as an
unconditional term, the grant by the claimant to each applicable LICENSEE Indemnified Party of a release of all liabilities in
respect of such Claim or (ii) otherwise adversely affects the rights of any applicable LICENSEE Indemnified Party.



 


		19.	Limitation of Liability. IN NO EVENT SHALL EITHER S&P,
ITS THIRD PARTY LICENSORS OR THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES OR LICENSEE HAVE ANY LIABILITY FOR SPECIAL, PUNITIVE, INDIRECT, OR CONSEQUENTIAL
DAMAGES (INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, LOST PROFITS) HOWSOEVER ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH ANY ETF LICENSE, EVEN IF NOTIFIED
OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES, EXCEPT WITH RESPECT TO: (A) THE OBLIGATIONS SET FORTH UNDER SECTIONS
15 AND 18, OR (B) ANY

BREACH BY LICENSEE OR ANY PERMITTED
SUBLICENSEE OF THE LICENSE GRANTED UNDER ANY ETF LICENSE AND THIS MASTER AGREEMENT. WITHOUT DIMINISHING ANY DISCLAIMERS AND LIMITATIONS
SET FORTH HEREIN, IN NO EVENT SHALL THE CUMULATIVE LIABILITY OF S&P, ITS THIRD PARTY LICENSORS AND THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES
TO LICENSEE OR ANY THIRD PARTY UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH ANY ETF LICENSE EXCEED THE LICENSE FEES ACTUALLY PAID TO S&P BY
LICENSEE UNDER THAT ETF LICENSE DURING THE PRECEDING TWELVE (12) MONTH PERIOD.


 


		20.	Force Majeure.



 


		20.1.	Neither S&P nor LICENSEE shall bear responsibility or liability
for any losses arising out of any delay in or interruptions of their respective performance of their obligations under this Master
Agreement and/or any ETF License due to any act of God, act of governmental authority, act of the public enemy or due to war, the
outbreak or escalation of hostilities (including acts of terrorism), riot, fire, flood, civil commotion, insurrection, labor difficulty,
including without limitation, any strike, or other work stoppage or slow down, severe or adverse weather conditions, communications
line failure, or other similar cause beyond the reasonable control of the Party so affected but not due to such Party’s negligence
(“Force Majeure Event”).



 


		20.2.	Any Party that is subject to a Force Majeure Event shall not be in
breach of this Master Agreement and/or any ETF License provided that: (a) it promptly notifies the other Party in writing
of the nature and extent of such Force Majeure Event causing its delay or interruption in performance; and (b) it could
not have avoided the effect of the Force Majeure Event by taking precautions which, having regard to all the matters known to it
before the Force Majeure Event, it ought reasonably to have taken, but did not; and (c) it has used all endeavors to mitigate
the effect of the Force Majeure Event, to carry out its obligations under any ETF License and/or this Master Agreement in any way
that is reasonably practicable and to resume the performance of its obligations as soon as reasonably practicable. 



 


		20.3.	If the Force Majeure Event continues for more than thirty (30) days,
the other Party shall have the right to terminate the relevant ETF License upon written notice to such Party.



 


		21.	Other Matters.



 


		21.1.	Change in Control. If there is a Change in Control, LICENSEE
shall so inform S&P in writing setting forth the details of such Change in Control promptly upon such Change in Control or
if, permitted by law or applicable regulations, at least forty-five (45) days prior to such Change in Control. S&P may at its
option, after receipt of such notice, require LICENSEE to renegotiate any terms of this Master Agreement and/or any ETF License(s)
for the remainder of the then-current Term of each or any ETF License entered into under this Master Agreement. Further in the
event of such Change in Control, S&P’s written consent to an assignment (by operation of law or otherwise) or transfer
of this Master Agreement and/or any ETF License to such third party shall be required, and any attempt to so assign or transfer
this Master Agreement and/or any ETF License without such written consent shall be null and void.



 


		21.2.	Assignment; No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Master Agreement
and each ETF License is solely and exclusively between the Parties and shall not be assigned or transferred by either Party, without
the prior written consent of the other Party, and any attempt to so assign or transfer this Master Agreement or any ETF License
without such written consent shall be null and void. The foregoing notwithstanding, S&P may assign its rights and duties under
this Master Agreement and/or any ETF License to an Affiliate, without obtaining such consent. This Master Agreement and/or any
ETF License (and any related agreement or arrangement between the Parties) is solely and exclusively for the benefit of the Parties
and their respective successors, and nothing in this Master Agreement or any





    	Page 20 of 28

ETF License (or any related agreement
or arrangement between the Parties), express or implied, is intended to or shall confer on any other person or entity, any rights,
benefits, or remedies of any nature whatsoever under or by reason of this Master Agreement or any ETF License (or any such related
agreement or arrangement between the Parties). Despite the provisions of this Section 21.2,
Third Party Licensors shall be entitled to enforce the provisions of this Master Agreement and any ETF License against LICENSEE
to the extent that such provisions benefit such Third Party Licensor.


 


		21.3.	Governing Law. This Master Agreement and all ETF Licenses
hereunder shall be deemed to have been made in the United States of America, in the State of New York and shall be governed by,
and construed, interpreted and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the United States of America and the State of New York,
without reference to principles of conflicts of laws thereof. Any action or proceeding arising under or relating to this Master
Agreement and/or any ETF License shall be instituted in a federal or state court of competent jurisdiction in the State and County

ETF License entered into hereunder) constitutes the entire agreement of the Parties with respect to its subject matter and may

of this Master Agreement and/or each such ETF License. There are no oral or written collateral representations, agreements, or
understandings except as provided herein. 



 


		21.5.	Waiver, Modification and Amendment. No waiver, modification,
or amendment of any of the terms and conditions of this Master Agreement (or any ETF License hereunder) shall be valid or binding
unless set forth in a written instrument signed by duly authorized officers of both Parties. The delay or failure by either Party
to insist, in any one or more instances, upon strict performance of any of the terms or conditions of this Master Agreement (or
any ETF License hereunder) or to exercise any right or privilege herein conferred shall not be construed as a waiver of any such
term, condition, right, or privilege, but the same shall continue in full force and effect.



 


		21.6.	Continuing Obligations of the Parties. No breach, default
or threatened breach of this Master Agreement (and/or any ETF License entered into hereunder) by either Party shall relieve the
other Party of its obligations or liabilities under this Master Agreement and/or such ETF License with respect to the protection
of the property or proprietary nature of any property which is the subject of this Master Agreement and/or such ETF License.



 


		21.7.	Notice. Except as set forth in Section
11.1 hereof with respect to Informational Materials, all notices and other communications under this Master Agreement
and/or any ETF License shall be (i) in writing, (ii) delivered by hand, by registered or certified mail, return receipt

for each of the LICENSEE ETFs according to LICENSEE’s methodology (each an “IOPV” and collectively the “IOPVs”);
and,


 


WHEREAS, S&P
is desirous to calculate such IOPVs in exchange for the payment by LICENSEE of the fees set forth under this Amendment; and,


 


WHEREAS, the Parties
wish to amend the Prior Agreement as set forth below;


 


NOW, THEREFORE,
S&P and LICENSEE agree as follows:


 


1.        Capitalized terms used but not defined
herein shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Prior Agreement.


 


2.        The Term of this Amendment commences
on the Amendment Effective Date and shall continue in effect until the end of the Initial Term of each ETF License (the “Amendment
Initial Term”) and, following the Amendment Initial Term, shall automatically renew for successive [***Redacted] terms
(each a “Renewal Term”) (the Initial Term and Renewal Term(s), together the “Term”) unless
either party notifies the other in writing of its decision not to extend the term of this Amendment at least ninety (90) days prior
to the expiration of the Term then in effect.


 


3.        This Amendment shall automatically terminate
with respect to any LICENSEE ETF(s) in the event of a termination of the License(s) for the S&P Index or respective S&P
Indices tracked by such LICENSEE ETF(s),

and S&P’s only liability under this
Amendment in the event of any such termination shall be a refund of any unused, prepaid fees under this Amendment.


 


4.        S&P shall calculate an IOPV for each
class of shares (each, a “Class”) of each LICENSEE ETF under the Prior Agreement according to the specifications
set forth in the attached and incorporated Appendix 1 (“Calculation Services”). LICENSEE shall be responsible for ensuring
that component data necessary to calculate the next business day’s IOPVs in possession of the custodian for the LICENSEE
ETFs (currently State Street Bank and Trust Company (“State Street”)) shall be provided to S&P at the close of
the previous business day. The component data shall be sent to S&P via email to an address provided by S&P. LICENSEE expressly
agrees and acknowledges that S&P will provide the IOPVs to those third party vendor(s) of S&P’s choice who have established
connections to S&P’s or its service facilitator’s computer facility allowing S&P to feed such real-time data
to such third party vendor(s) (“Real-time Vendor(s)”), and S&P shall make commercially reasonable efforts to ensure
that the IOPVs are further disseminated to and published on Reuters. In connection thereto, LICENSEE agrees and acknowledges that
S&P shall have no duty or obligation to control the Real-time Vendor(s)’ or their distributors’ use of the IOPVs
beyond the point of S&P’s or its service facilitator’s computer facility, including, without limitation, any Real-time
Vendor’s further distribution of the IOPVs to additional vendors beyond Reuters within its distribution network. LICENSEE
agrees and acknowledges that certain third party vendors charge S&P to distribute data on their platform and that such charges
may be passed through to LICENSEE if S&P distributes the IOPVs via such vendor at LICENSEE’s written direction. All distribution
and re-distribution of the IOPVs by Real-time Vendors and their distributors shall be subject to the terms and conditions of this
Amendment and the Prior Agreement, including, without limitation, Section 5 of this Amendment below and Section 18.1 of the Master
Agreement, as amended by this Amendment.


 


5.        LICENSEE expressly agrees that it shall
be bound by the following disclaimer and limitation of liability:


 


S&P, ITS AFFILIATES AND ALL OF THEIR THIRD-PARTY
LICENSORS DISCLAIM ANY AND ALL WARRANTIES AND REPRESENTATIONS, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY
OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR USE, AS TO THE IOPVS INCLUDING CALCULATION OF THE IOPVS OR THE RESULTS OBTAINED BY THEIR

NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY IN
THIS AMENDMENT OR THE PRIOR AGREEMENT, IN NO EVENT WHATSOEVER SHALL S&P, ITS AFFILIATES OR THEIR THIRD-PARTY LICENSORS BE LIABLE
FOR ANY CLAIMS RELATING TO THE CALCULATION SERVICES FOR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, PUNITIVE OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, INCLUDING
BUT NOT LIMITED TO, LOSS OF PROFITS OR LOST TIME OR GOODWILL, EVEN IF THEY HAVE BEEN

Appendix 1


 


Specifications


 


 


Description of the LICENSEE ETFs


 


Each LICENSEE ETF tracks its underlying S&P
Index’s changes without the need to hold any securities, commodities, futures or other financial instruments relating to
its underlying S&P Index or the assets referenced by the underlying S&P Index. Instead, each LICENSEE ETF is expressly
limited to holding only: cash; bills, bonds and notes issued and guaranteed by the United States Treasury with remaining maturities
of three months or less (“eligible Treasuries”); and over-night repurchase agreements collateralized by United States
Treasury securities (“eligible repos”, and together with the cash and eligible Treasuries, “Eligible Assets”).


 


Unlike other exchange traded products, each
LICENSEE ETF will engage principally in cash distributions and potentially paired share distributions to deliver to shareholders
the economic exposure to the LICENSEE ETF’s underlying S&P Index. Each LICENSEE ETF will issue its shares in offsetting
pairs, where one constituent of the pair is positively linked to the LICENSEE ETF’s underlying S&P Index (“Up Shares”)
and the other constituent is negatively linked to the LICENSEE ETF’s underlying S&P Index (“Down Shares”).
Therefore, each LICENSEE ETF will only issue, distribute, maintain and redeem equal quantities of Up and Down Shares at all times.
Once issued and before any redemption, Up Shares and Down Shares will trade separately without restriction on the NASDAQ OMX


 


The custodian will daily determine the liquidation
value of a LICENSEE ETF attributable to each of its Classes (“Class Value”), which liquidation value is based on the
value of the LICENSEE ETF’s Eligible Assets attributable to such Class, (a) plus any accrued income or gains or losses on
such assets attributable to such Class (“Investment Income”), (b) less all fees, expenses and taxes attributable to
such Class not otherwise assumed by the Licensee ETF’s sponsor (the “Sponsor”), where such income and gains after
deduction of such fees, expenses and taxes is referred to as the Class’ “Net Investment Income.” Investment Income
with respect to a Class will be adjusted during any creation or redemption order settlement period for any increases or decreases
in value of a LICENSEE ETF’s assets attributable to such Class resulting from such order. The Net Investment Income and Investment
Income can be positive or negative.


 


At the inception of operations of each LICENSEE
ETF, the Sponsor will establish the level at which each Class of the LICENSEE ETF will participate in the LICENSEE ETF’s
underlying S&P Index. Thereafter, the custodian will daily allocate among each LICENSEE ETF’s Up Shares and Down Shares
their respective Class Values where the Class Value for each Class of a LICENSEE ETF is shared equally among the outstanding shares
of such Class. This daily allocation of Class Values results in the “Class Value per Share” for each Up Share and each
Down Share of the LICENSEE ETF. Most important for the calculation of a LICENSEE ETF’s Class Values per Share – one
for the Up Shares and one for the Down Shares – is the determination of the Class Value of each Class of a LICENSEE ETF,
which is based on changes in the level of the underlying S&P Index from the previous calculation date and, in the case of the
AccuShares Spot CBOE VIX Fund (the “VIX Fund”), the VIX Fund Daily Amount (as defined in the Amended and Restated Trust
Agreement by AccuShares Management LLC, as sponsor, and Wilmington Trust, N.A., as trustee, as assigned by AccuShares Management
LLC to LICENSEE on December 16, 2013, and as amended from time to time (the “Trust Agreement”)). Consequently, the
Class Value per Share of a Class of a LICENSEE ETF is such Class’ allocation per share of the LICENSEE ETF’s liquidation
value reflecting changes in the LICENSEE ETF’s underlying S&P Index in accordance with the linkage – positive or
negative – such Class has to the underlying S&P Index and, in the case of the VIX Fund, the VIX Fund Daily Amount. Class
Values and Class Values per Share will be posted to the Sponsor’s website (www.AccuShares.com).

IOPV Description 


The following language is a description of
what will be disclosed to investors regarding IOPV calculations:


The IOPV-UP is an indicator of the value of
an Up Share’s Class Value per Share at the time the IOPV-UP is disseminated. The IOPV-UP is calculated and disseminated every
15 seconds throughout the business day. The IOPV-UP is generally calculated using the prior business day’s closing Class
Value per Share of an Up Share as a base and updating throughout the business day based on changes in either the value of the underlying
S&P Index or the value of an equivalent front-futures contract price if S&P and its Affiliates have failed to publish such
S&P Index value. The IOPV-UP of each LICENSEE ETF on any given day will not include any accrual of that day’s Net Investment
Income and, in the case of the VIX Fund, that day’s VIX Fund Daily Amount.


The IOPV-DOWN is an indicator of the value
of a Down Share’s Class Value per Share at the time the IOPV-DOWN is disseminated. The IOPV-DOWN is calculated and disseminated
every 15 seconds throughout the business day. The IOPV-DOWN is generally calculated using the prior business day’s closing
Class Value per Share of a Down Share as a base and updating throughout the business day based on changes in either the value of
the underlying S&P Index or the value of an equivalent front-futures contract price if S&P and its Affiliates have failed
to publish such S&P Index value. The IOPV-DOWN of each LICENSEE ETF on any given day will not include any accrual of that day’s
Net Investment Income and, in the case of the VIX Fund, that day’s VIX Fund Daily Amount.


 


Calculation Methodology


For purposes of this section only, capitalized
terms used but not defined in this Amendment or in the Prior Agreement shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Trust Agreement.
The Class Value per Share of each Class of each LICENSEE ETF shall be calculated in accordance with the following formulas:


(i)          The Class Value per Share for the Up
Shares of each LICENSEE ETF, other than the VIX Fund, at any time is determined as follows:


UPt = UPt-1 + UPSIFt x (UILt – UILt-1)
+ UPNIAt


(ii)         The Class Value per Share for the AccuShares
Spot CBOE VIX Up Shares will be determined at any time as follows:


UPt = UPt-1 + UPSIFt x (UILt – UILt-1)
+ UPNIAt – DAt


(iii)        The Class Value per Share for the
Down Shares of each LICENSEE ETF, other than the VIX Fund, at any time is determined as follows:


DNt = DNt-1 + DNSIFt x (UILt – UILt-1)
+ DNNIAt


(iv)        The Class Value per Share for the AccuShares
Spot CBOE VIX Down Shares at any time is determined as follows:


DNt = DNt-1 + DNSIFt x (UILt – UILt-1)
+ DNNIAt+ DAt


Where


“UIL” means, with respect to any
LICENSEE ETF, the level of such LICENSEE ETF’s underlying S&P Index, subject to the Class Value per Share Limitation.


“Up Share Index Factor” or “UPSIF”
means, with respect to any LICENSEE ETF, the Share Index Factor of such LICENSEE ETF’s Up Shares.


“UPNIA” means, with respect to
any LICENSEE ETF, the accrued Net Investment Income per Share attributable to each of such LICENSEE ETF’s Up Shares since
the Prior Distribution Date.


“Down Share Index Factor” or “DNSIF”
means, with respect to any LICENSEE ETF, the Share Index Factor of such LICENSEE ETF’s Down Shares.


“DNNIA” means, with respect to
any LICENSEE ETF, the accrued Net Investment Income per Share attributable to each of such LICENSEE ETF’s Down Shares since
the Prior Distribution Date.


“DAt” means
the accumulated VIX Fund Daily Amounts since the Prior Distribution Date.


“Share Index Factor” means, with
respect to any Class of a LICENSEE ETF, as of any date of determination, the fixed linear relationship of the Class Value of such
Class with such LICENSEE ETF’s underlying S&P Index.


“t” means the time of the related
determination.


“t-1” means the time of the related
determination as of the Prior Distribution Date.

Actual Calculations


When calculating the IOPV of either Class of
a LICENSEE ETF, the above formulas would apply as well. Each of the components listed above would be provided to SPDJI from State
Street as the fund custodian at the close of the previous business day. The only variable that would be changing during each business
day would be the UILt. As shown in Exhibit 1, all of the S&P Indices are SPDJI indices with the exception of the CBOE Volatility
Index.
