the other party’s Confidential Information to any third party. For the avoidance of doubt, except as is reasonably necessary to provide services to the Trust and each Fund, as required by law or regulation, or with the written consent of the
Trust, the Bank agrees that it will not disclose Confidential Information to any other division of the Bank and the Bank will not disclose Confidential Information to any parent company, affiliate or subsidiary of the Bank except to the extent set
forth in sub-section (b) hereof. Confidential Information shall include, but not be limited to, (a) any data or information that is competitively sensitive material or otherwise not generally known
to the public, including, but not limited to, information about product plans, product concepts, product structure, portfolio management strategies, tax strategies, marketing strategies, finances, operations, customer relationships, customer
profiles, customer lists, sales estimates, business plans, and internal performance results relating to the past, present or future business activities of the Trust or the Bank and their respective subsidiaries and affiliated companies; (b) any
scientific or technical information, design, process, procedure, formula, or improvement that is commercially valuable and secret in the sense that its confidentiality affords the Trust or the Bank a competitive advantage over its competitors;
(c) all confidential or proprietary concepts, documentation, reports, data, specifications, computer software, source code, object code, flow charts, databases, inventions, know-how, and trade secrets,
whether or not patentable or copyrightable; and (d) anything designated by the disclosing party as Confidential Information. Notwithstanding the foregoing, information shall not be Confidential Information and shall not be subject to such
confidentiality obligations if: (i) it is necessary for the Bank to release such information in connection with the provision of services under this Agreement provided that the recipient of such Confidential Information is subject to a duty of
confidentiality; (ii) such Confidential Information at the time of disclosure is in the public domain; (iii) such Confidential Information is learned by the receiving party from a third party unless the receiving party knew or should have
known that such third party owed a duty of confidentiality to the disclosing party; (iv) such Confidential Information is known to or developed by the receiving party independently of information disclosed by the other party under this
Agreement; or (v) it is requested or required to be disclosed pursuant to a subpoena, applicable law, regulation or judicial or regulatory process (each such 

  
 9 

 
disclosure, a “Required Disclosure”). Other than with respect to supervisory examinations of the Bank by its regulators, the Bank agrees, where the circumstances reasonably permit, and
to the extent permitted by law, to provide the Trust with prior notice of any Required Disclosure promptly upon receipt of such request or requirement. The Bank acknowledges and agrees that in connection with its services under this Agreement it
receives non-public confidential portfolio holdings information (“Portfolio Information”) with respect to the Trust. The Bank agrees that, subject to the foregoing provisions of and the exceptions
set forth in this Section 8.4, the Bank will keep confidential the Trust’s Portfolio Information and will not disclose the Trust’s Portfolio Information other than pursuant to a written instructions; provided that without the need for
such a written instructions and notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 8.4 to the contrary, the Trust’s Portfolio Information may be disclosed to third party pricing services which are engaged by the Bank in connection with
the provision of services under this Agreement and which shall be subject to a duty of confidentiality with respect to such Portfolio Information and to the Trust’s regulators. The provisions of this Section 8.4 shall survive termination
or expiration of this Agreement. 
 (b)    The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation is a global financial organization
that provides services to clients through its affiliates and subsidiaries in multiple jurisdictions (the “BNY Mellon Group”). The BNY Mellon Group may centralize functions including audit, accounting, risk, legal, compliance, sales,
administration, product communication, relationship management, storage, compilation and analysis of customer-related data, and other functions (the “Centralized Functions”) in one or more affiliates, subsidiaries and third-party service
providers. Notwithstanding the foregoing confidentiality obligations of sub-section (a) of this Section, solely in connection with the Centralized Functions, (i) the Trust, on behalf of each Fund
consents to the disclosure of and authorizes the Bank to disclose information regarding the Fund (“Customer-Related Data”) to the BNY Mellon Group and to its third-party service providers who are subject to confidentiality obligations with
respect to such information and (ii) the Bank may store the names and business contact information of the Trust’s officers and representatives on the systems or in the records of the BNY Mellon Group or its service providers. The
BNY Mellon Group may aggregate Customer-Related Data with other data collected and/or calculated by the BNY Mellon Group, and notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary the BNY Mellon Group will own all such aggregated data, and may
use such aggregated data in regulatory reports, in marketing materials prepared for the BNY Mellon Group’s shareholders, other clients, or potential clients, to monitor and enhance its service offerings, and to develop new products and
services, provided that the BNY Mellon Group shall not distribute the aggregated data in a format that identifies Customer-Related Data with a particular customer. The Trust confirms that it is authorized to consent to the foregoing. 

8.5    In case of any requests or demands for the inspection of the Shareholder records of the Trust, the Bank will
promptly notify the Trust and secure instructions from an authorized officer of the Trust as to such inspection. The Bank reserves the right, however, to exhibit the Shareholder records to any person, with prior notice to the Trust, whenever it is
advised by counsel retained by the Bank, at its own expense, that it may be held liable for the failure to exhibit the Shareholder records to such person; provided that the Bank acts in conformity with the advice or opinion of such counsel; and
provided further that such advice or opinion of counsel is obtained in accordance with Section 7.6. 
 9.    Termination of
Agreement. 
 9.1    The term of this Agreement shall be three (3) years (the “Initial Term”),
commencing October 1, 2018 and shall automatically renew for additional one-year terms (each, a “Renewal Term”) unless earlier terminated as provided below:

 10 

 (b)    Either party hereto may terminate this Agreement in the event the
other party breaches any material provision of this Agreement, provided that the non-breaching party gives written notice of such breach to the breaching party and the breaching party does not cure such
violation within thirty (30) days of receipt of such notice. 
 (c)    Either party hereto may terminate this
Agreement immediately by sending notice thereof to the other party upon the happening of any of the following: (i) a party commences as debtor any case or proceeding under any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law, or there is commenced against

there is commenced against the party any such case or proceeding; (iii) a party makes a general assignment for the benefit of creditors; or (iv) a party states in any medium, written, electronic or otherwise, any public communication or in
any other public manner its inability to pay debts as they come due. Either party hereto may exercise its termination right under this Section 9.1(c) at any time after the occurrence of any of the foregoing events notwithstanding that such
event may cease to be continuing prior to such exercise, and any delay in exercising this right shall not be construed as a waiver or other extinguishment of that right. 

9.2    Should the Trust exercise its right to terminate this Agreement for any reason other than one of the events
specified in 9.1(b) or 9.1(c), all out-of-pocket expenses associated with the movement of records and material will be borne by the Trust. 

9.3    Termination of this Agreement with respect to one Fund shall not constitute a termination of this Agreement with
respect to the other Funds. 
 9.4    The terms of Section 2 (with respect to fees and expenses incurred prior to
termination), Section 5, Section 6 and Section 8.4 shall survive any termination or expiration of this Agreement and shall be a continuing obligation of each party, its successors and assigns. 

10.    Additional Series. 

In the event that the Trust establishes one or more additional series with respect to which it desires to have the Bank render services as
transfer agent under the terms hereof, it shall so notify the Bank in writing, and such additional series shall automatically become Funds hereunder as of the date specified in such notice. 

11.    Assignment. 

11.1    Neither this Agreement nor any rights or obligations hereunder may be assigned or delegated by either party without
the written consent of the other party; provided, however, either party may assign this Agreement to a party controlling, controlled by or under common control with it so long as the assignee or transferee agrees to be bound by all terms of this
Agreement in place of the assigning party, and, with respect to the Bank, such assignment or transfer does not impair the provision of services under this Agreement in any material respect. 

11.2    This Agreement shall extend to, inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their
respective permitted successors and assigns. 

  
 11

jurisdiction, the validity, the legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions or obligations shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby, and if any provision is inapplicable to any person or circumstances, it shall nevertheless
remain applicable to all other persons and circumstances. 
 12.2    All of the understandings, agreements,
representations and warranties contained herein are solely for the benefit of the Bank, the Trust and the Sponsor and none of any Authorized Participant, the Distributor, any Shareholder or beneficial owner of any Shares or any other person or

brought in an inconvenient forum. The Trust and the Bank each hereby irrevocably waives any and all rights to trial by jury in any legal proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement to the fullest extent permitted by law.

17.    Limitation of Liability of the Sponsor and Shareholders. 

It is expressly acknowledged and agreed that the obligations of the Trust hereunder shall not be binding upon any of the shareholders,
officers, employees or agents of the Trust or ProShare Capital Management LLC (the “Sponsor”) personally, but shall bind only the trust property of the Trust, as provided in its Amended and Restated Trust Agreement. The execution and
delivery of this Agreement has been authorized by the Sponsor and signed by an officer of the Trust, acting as such, and neither such authorization by the Sponsor nor such execution and delivery by such officer shall be deemed to have been made by

procedures; however, no documentation relating thereto may be copied, shared, transmitted or removed from the Bank premises, except as mutually agreed. The parties shall mutually agree upon a convenient time and place for such meeting. Not more than
once each year, and subject to the Bank’s reasonable security requirements and availability of personnel, the Bank will at the Trust’s request arrange a tour of the Bank’s data processing facilities for the Trust’s subject matter
experts. The Bank will also, subject to its reasonable security requirements, permit site visits of its data processing facilities by 

  
 13 

 
governmental agencies with regulatory authority over the Trust. In the event that the Trust identifies any control deficiencies, the Bank will discuss such findings with the Trust and if
appropriate the parties shall work together to develop a mutually agreeable remediation plan. All nonpublic documentation and information disclosed to the Trust in accordance with this Section shall be deemed proprietary and confidential information
of the Bank. The Trust shall not disclose such documentation or information to any third party or use it for any purpose other than evaluating the Bank’s security controls, except that the Trust may disclose the Bank’s SSAE-18 summary to the Trust’s external auditors provided that such external auditors are required to maintain the confidentiality of the summary and any related information. The Bank shall be reimbursed for
any costs and expenses incurred in connection with any review of the Bank’s security controls. 
 19.    Counterparts. 

This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original; but such counterparts together
shall constitute only one instrument. 
 20.    Several Obligations. 

The parties acknowledge that the obligations of the Funds hereunder are several and not joint, that no Fund shall be liable for any amount
owing by another Fund, or the Trust on behalf of another Fund, and that the Trust has executed one instrument for convenience only. 

21.    No Waiver. 

Each and every right granted to either party hereunder or under any other document delivered hereunder or in connection herewith, or allowed it
by law or equity, shall be cumulative and may be exercised from time to time. No failure on the part of either party to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right will operate as a waiver thereof, nor will any single or partial exercise by the
Bank of any right preclude any other or future exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right.

 EXHIBIT A 

Form of Authorized Participant Agreement 

PROSHARES TRUST II 

AUTHORIZED PARTICIPANT AGREEMENT 

This Authorized Participant Agreement (the “Agreement”), dated as of
                    , is entered into by and among
                     (the “Authorized Participant”), ProShares Trust II, a Delaware statutory trust (the “Trust”) and ProShare
Capital Management LLC, a Maryland limited liability company, as sponsor of the Trust (the “Sponsor”). 
 SUMMARY 

As provided in the Trust Agreement of the Trust, as amended (the “Trust Agreement”) as currently in effect and described in the
applicable Prospectus (defined below), units of fractional undivided beneficial interest in and ownership of the Trust (the “Shares”) may be created or redeemed by the Sponsor for an Authorized Participant in aggregations of between
twenty-five thousand (25,000) and fifty thousand (50,000) Shares (each aggregation, a “Creation Unit”). Creation Units are offered only pursuant to registration statements of the Trust, as declared effective by the Securities and Exchange
Commission (“SEC”) and as the same may be amended from time to time thereafter or any successor registration statement in respect of Shares of the Trust (collectively, the “Registration Statements”) together with the prospectuses
of the Trust (each a “Prospectus” and collectively, the “Prospectuses”) included therein. Under the Trust Agreement, the Sponsor is authorized to issue Creation Units to, and redeem Creation Units from, authorized participants,
only through the facilities of the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”), or a successor depository, and only in exchange for cash. This Agreement and the Procedures (defined below) set forth the specific procedures by which the Authorized
Participant may create or redeem Creation Units. 
 Because new Shares can be created and issued on an ongoing basis, at any point during
the valid existence of the Trust, a “distribution,” as such term is used in the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“1933 Act”), may be occurring. The Authorized Participant is cautioned that some of its activities may result in
its being deemed a participant in a distribution in a manner which would render it a statutory underwriter and subject it to the prospectus-delivery and liability provisions of the 1933 Act. The Authorized Participant should review the “Plan of
Distribution” portion of the applicable Prospectus and consult with its own counsel in connection with entering into this Agreement and submitting Orders (defined below). 

Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Trust Agreement or Authorized
Participant Procedures Handbook set forth in Attachment A hereto (the “Procedures”). 
 To give effect to the foregoing premises
and in consideration of the mutual covenants and agreements set forth below, the parties hereto agree as follows: 
 Section 1.
Order Placement. To place orders for the Sponsor (or its agent) to create or redeem one or more Creation Units, the Authorized Participant must follow the procedures for creation and redemption referred to in Section 3 of this Agreement
and the Procedures described in Attachment A, as each may be amended, modified or supplemented from time to time. 
 Section 2.
Status, Representations and Warranties of the Parties. 
  

	 	(a)	 The Authorized Participant represents and warrants and covenants the following: 

(i)    The Authorized Participant is a participant of DTC (as such a participant, a “DTC Participant”). If the
Authorized Participant ceases to be a DTC Participant, the Authorized 

  
 20 

  
  

 
Participant shall give prompt notice to the Sponsor of such event, and this Agreement shall terminate immediately as of the date the Authorized Participant ceased to be a DTC Participant. 

(ii)    Unless Section 2(a)(iii) applies, the Authorized Participant either (i) is registered as a broker-dealer
under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“1934 Act”), and is a member in good standing of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (the “FINRA”), or (ii) is exempt from being, or otherwise is not required to
be, licensed as a broker-dealer or a member of FINRA, and in either case is qualified to act as a broker or dealer in the states or other jurisdictions where the nature of its business so requires. In connection with the purchase or redemption of
Creation Units and any related offers or sales of Shares, the Authorized Participant will maintain any such registrations, qualifications and membership in good standing and in full force and effect throughout the term of this Agreement. The
Authorized Participant will comply with all applicable federal laws, the laws of the states or other jurisdictions concerned, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, and with the FINRA By-Laws
and NASD Conduct Rules (or with comparable FINRA Conduct Rules, if such NASD Conduct Rules are subsequently renamed, repealed, rescinded, or are otherwise replaced by FINRA Conduct Rules) if it is a FINRA member, to the extent the foregoing relates
to the Authorized Participant’s transactions in and activities with respect to, Shares, and that it will not offer or sell Shares in any state or jurisdiction where they may not lawfully be offered and/or sold. 

(iii)    If the Authorized Participant is offering or selling Shares in jurisdictions outside the several states,
territories and possessions of the United States and is not otherwise required to be registered, qualified or a member of FINRA as set forth in Section 2(a)(ii) above, the Authorized Participant will, in connection with such offers and sales,
(i) observe the applicable laws of the jurisdiction in which such offer and/or sale is made, (ii) comply with the prospectus delivery and other requirements of the 1933 Act, and the regulations promulgated thereunder, and
(iii) conduct its business in accordance with the NASD Conduct Rules (or with comparable FINRA Conduct Rules, if such NASD Conduct Rules are subsequently renamed, repealed, rescinded, or are otherwise replaced by FINRA Conduct Rules), to the
extent the foregoing relates to the Authorized Participant’s transactions in, and activities with respect to, Shares. 

(iv)    The Authorized Participant has policies, procedures, and internal controls in place that are reasonably designed
to comply with applicable anti-money laundering laws and regulations, including applicable provisions of the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001 (the “USA
PATRIOT Act”), and the regulations promulgated thereunder, if the Authorized Participant is subject to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act. 

(v)    The Authorized Participant acknowledges that in addition to satisfying the prospectus delivery and disclosure
requirements of the 1933 Act, it and any other participant in the distribution of the Shares purchased by the Authorized Participant may have an obligation to comply with the prospectus delivery requirements under the Commodity Exchange Act (the
“CEA”). The Sponsor agrees that if it becomes aware of any new delivery or disclosure requirement under the 1933 Act or the CEA relating to Shares, other than the current obligation to deliver the applicable Prospectus, it shall use
reasonable efforts to advise the Authorized Participant of such requirement(s). 
 (vi)    The Authorized Participant
agrees not to enforce against the Trust and Sponsor any patent rights with respect to the business of the Trust. For avoidance of doubt, this provision will only be effective during time periods in which the Agreement is in effect and shall not
survive termination thereof. 

  
 21 

  
  

	 	(b)	 The Sponsor represents and warrants that on the date hereof and at each time of purchase by the Authorized
Participant of a Creation Unit from the Trust (each such time, the “Time of Purchase”), that: 

(i)    on the effective date of each Registration Statement and at each Time of Purchase, the Trust’s applicable
Registration Statement shall be effective and no stop order of the SEC with respect thereto shall have been issued and no proceedings for such purpose shall have been instituted or, to the Sponsor’s knowledge, will then be contemplated by the
SEC; the applicable Registration Statement complied when it became effective and complies at the Time of Purchase in all material respects with the requirements of the 1933 Act, and the applicable Prospectus complied as of its date, and complies at
the Time of Purchase, in all material respects with the requirements of the 1933 Act; and the conditions to the use of Form S-1 or Form S-3, as applicable, have been
satisfied; the applicable Registration Statement did not when it became effective and does not at the Time of Purchase contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make
the statements therein not misleading, the applicable Prospectus did not, as of its date and does not at the Time of Purchase, contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary
in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; and, the documents comprising the applicable Disclosure Package (as defined below) did not contain an untrue statement of a
material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, however, that the Sponsor
makes no warranty or representation with respect to any statement contained in a Registration Statement, a Prospectus or a Disclosure Package in reliance upon and in conformity with information concerning the Authorized Participant and furnished in
writing by or on behalf of the Authorized Participant to the Sponsor expressly for use therein. The “Disclosure Package” is the applicable Prospectus and any amendments and supplements thereto at the Time of Purchase and any free
writing prospectus as defined in Rule 405 of the 1933 Act (a “FWP”) prepared by, for or on behalf of the Sponsor before the Time of Purchase and intended for general distribution; 

(ii)    the Shares, when issued and delivered against payment of consideration therefor, as provided in this Agreement,
will be duly and validly authorized, issued, fully paid and non-assessable and free of statutory and contractual preemptive rights, rights of first refusal and similar rights; 

(iii)    the Sponsor has been duly organized and, on the effective date of a Registration Statement and at each Time of
Purchase, will be validly existing as a limited liability company in good standing under the laws of the State of Maryland, with full power and authority to act as the sponsor of the Trust as described in the applicable Registration Statement and
the Prospectus, and has all requisite power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement; 
 (iv)    at the time
the Sponsor makes an offer of Shares following the filing of the Registration Statement, neither the Trust nor the Sponsor will be an “ineligible issuer” as defined in Rule 405 of the 1933 Act; and 

(v)    the Sponsor shall provide to the Authorized Participant copies of the applicable then current Prospectus and any
printed supplemental information in reasonable quantities upon request, the Sponsor will promptly notify the Authorized Participant when a revised, supplemented or amended Prospectus is available, the Sponsor will deliver or otherwise make available
to the Authorized Participant copies of such revised, supplemented or amended Prospectus at such time and in such numbers as to enable the Authorized Participant to comply with any obligation the Authorized Participant may have to deliver such
Prospectus to customers or in response to the Authorized Participant’s reasonable request, the Sponsor will make such revised, supplemented or amended Prospectus available to the Authorized Participant no later than the effective date thereof,
and the Sponsor will be deemed to have complied with this paragraph 

  
 22 

  
  

 
when the Authorized Participant has received such revised, supplemented or amended Prospectus at the address indicated below the signature line of the Authorized Participant in such number of
hard copies as to enable the Authorized Participant to comply with any obligation it may have to deliver such Prospectus to customers or as it may have reasonably requested. 
  

	 	(c)	 The Sponsor, on its own behalf and in its capacity as sponsor of the Trust, agrees: 

(i)    to endeavor, upon receipt of request from the Authorized Participant therefore, to file a post-effective amendment
to a Registration Statement removing any reference to the Authorized Participant thereunder; and 
 (ii)    to advise
the Authorized Participant promptly, confirming such advice in writing, of any request by the SEC for amendments or supplements to a Registration Statement or a Prospectus or for additional information with respect thereto, or of notice of
institution of proceedings for, or the entry of, a stop order suspending the effectiveness of a Registration Statement, and, if the SEC should enter a stop order suspending the effectiveness of a Registration Statement, to use its best efforts to
obtain the lifting or removal of such order as soon as possible. 
 Section 3. Orders. 

(a)    All orders to create or redeem Creation Units shall be made in accordance with the terms of the Trust Agreement,
this Agreement and the Procedures. Each party will comply with such foregoing terms and procedures to the extent applicable to it. The Sponsor may issue, or caused to be issued, additional or other procedures from time to time relating to the manner
of creating or redeeming Creation Units which are not related to the Procedures, and the Authorized Participant will comply with such procedures of which it has received notice delivered in accordance with Section 16(c) within a commercially
reasonable time following receipt of such notice. 
 (b)    The Authorized Participant acknowledges and agrees that each
order to create a Creation Unit (a “Purchase Order”) and each order to redeem a Creation Unit (a “Redemption Order”, and each Purchase Order and Redemption Order, an “Order”) delivered to the Sponsor, or the
Sponsor’s designee, may not be revoked by the Authorized Participant after the specified Cut-off Time for the applicable Fund. 

(c)    The Sponsor may, in its discretion, suspend the right of repurchase, or postpone the purchase settlement date,
(i) for any period during which any of the NYSE Arca, BATS Exchange, NYSE, CME, CBOT, ICI/NYBOT, LME or NYMEX/COMEX is closed other than for customary holidays or weekend closings or when trading is suspended or restricted on such exchanges in
any of the underlying commodities; (ii) for any period during which an emergency exists as a result of which the fulfillment of a purchase order is not reasonably practicable; or (iii) for such other period as the Sponsor determines to be
necessary for the protection of the shareholders. The Sponsor will not be liable to any person or in any way for any loss or damages that may result from any such suspension or postponement. 

(d)    The Sponsor, or its designee, also shall have the absolute right, but shall have no obligation, to reject any
Purchase Order (i) determined by the Sponsor, or its designee, not to be in proper form; (ii) that the Sponsor, or its designee, has determined would have adverse tax consequences to the Trust or to the Beneficial Owners; (iii) the
acceptance or receipt of which could, in the opinion of counsel to the Sponsor be unlawful; or (iv) if circumstances outside the control of the Sponsor, or its designee, make it for all practical purposes not feasible to process creations of
Creation Units. The Sponsor shall not be liable to any person by reason of the rejection of any Purchase Order. 

(e)    The Sponsor, or its designee, shall reject any Redemption Order the fulfillment of which its counsel advises would
be illegal under applicable laws and regulations, and the Sponsor, or its designee, shall have no liability to any person for rejecting a Redemption Order in such circumstances. 

(f)    The Sponsor may, in its discretion, suspend the right of redemption, or postpone the applicable Redemption
Settlement Time, for any period during which any of the NYSE Arca, BATS Exchange, 

  
 23 

  
  

 
NYSE, CME, CBOT, ICE/NYBOT, LME or NYMEX/COMEX is closed other than for customary holidays or weekend closings or when trading is suspended or restricted on such exchanges in any of the
underlying commodities: (i) for any period during which an emergency exists as a result of which the redemption distribution is not reasonably practicable; or (ii) for such other period as the Sponsor determines to be necessary for the
protection of the shareholders. The Sponsor will not be liable to any person or in any way for any loss or damages that may result from any such suspension or postponement. 

(g)    The Authorized Participant hereby consents to the use of recorded telephone lines whether or not such use is
reflected in the Procedures. In the event that the Sponsor, the Trust, or any of their affiliated persons becomes legally compelled to disclose to any third party any recording involving communications with the Authorized Participant, the Sponsor
agrees to provide the Authorized Participant with reasonable advance written notice identifying the recordings to be so disclosed, together with copies of such recordings, so that the Authorized Participant may seek a protective order or other
appropriate remedy with respect to the recordings or waive its right to do so. In the event that such protective order or other remedy is not obtained, or the Participant waives its right to seek such protective order or remedy, the Sponsor, the
Trust, or any of their affiliated persons, as the case may be, agrees to furnish only that portion of the recorded conversation that, according to legal counsel, is legally required to be furnished and will exercise its best efforts to obtain a
protective order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded the recorded conversation. The Sponsor, the Trust, and their affiliated persons shall not otherwise disclose to any third party any recording involving
communications with the Authorized Participant without the Authorized Participant’s express written consent, except the Sponsor and the Trust may disclose to a regulatory or self-regulatory organization, to the extent required by applicable
rule or law, recordings involving communications with the Authorized Participant. 
 Section 4. Fees. To compensate the
administrator for services in processing the creation and redemption of Creation Units and to reimburse the Trust for transaction-related expenses, an Authorized Participant is required to pay a fixed transaction fee of $500 per order to create or
redeem Creation Units and a variable transaction fee of up to 0.10% of the value of a Creation Unit. An order may include multiple Creation Units. The transaction fee may be waived or otherwise adjusted by the Sponsor and the Sponsor agrees to
provide the Authorized Participant with prompt notice in advance of any such waiver or adjustment of the transaction fee. 
 Section 5.
Authorized Persons. Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement and as requested in writing from time to time thereafter, the Authorized Participant shall deliver to the Sponsor, or its designee, a certificate, duly certified as
appropriate by its secretary or other duly authorized official, in the form of Exhibit A, setting forth the names and signatures of all persons authorized to give instructions relating to activity contemplated hereby or by any other notice, request
or instruction given on behalf of the Authorized Participant (each, an “Authorized Person”). The Sponsor may accept and rely upon such certificate as conclusive evidence of the facts set forth therein and shall consider such certificate to
be in full force and effect until the Sponsor, or its designee, receives a superseding certificate bearing a subsequent date and duly certified as described above. Upon the termination or revocation of authority of any Authorized Person by the
Authorized Participant, the Authorized Participant shall give prompt written notice of such fact to the Sponsor and such notice shall be effective upon receipt by the Sponsor. The Sponsor shall issue, or caused to be issued, to each Authorized
Person a unique personal identification number (the “PIN Number”) by which such Authorized Person shall be identified and by which instructions issued by the Authorized Participant hereunder shall be authenticated. The PIN Number shall be
kept confidential by the Authorized Participant and shall only be provided to the Authorized Person. If, after issuance, the Authorized Person’s PIN Number is changed, the new PIN Number shall become effective on a date mutually agreed upon by
the Authorized Participant and the Sponsor. 
 Section 6. Redemption. The Authorized Participant represents and warrants that it
will not initiate a Redemption Order (as described in the Procedures) with the Sponsor for the purpose of redeeming a Creation Unit unless (i) it owns outright or has the right or authority to tender for redemption the Creation Units to be
redeemed and to receive the entire proceeds of the redemption, and (ii) such Creation Units have not been loaned or pledged to another party and are not the subject of a repurchase agreement, securities lending agreement or any other
arrangement which, under the circumstances, would preclude the delivery of such Creation Units to the Sponsor on the third Business Day following the Redemption Order Date. A “Business Day” means any day other than a day when any of the
BATS Exchange, the New York Stock Exchange, the Chicago Mercantile Exchange, the Chicago Board of Trade, IntercontinentalExchange/New York Board of Trade, the London Metal Exchange or the New York Mercantile Exchange is closed for regular trading.

 Section 7. Role of Authorized Participant. 

(a)    The Authorized Participant acknowledges that, for all purposes of this Agreement and the Trust Agreement, the
Authorized Participant shall have no authority to act as agent for the Trust or the Sponsor in any matter or in any respect. 

(b)    The Authorized Participant will make itself and its employees available, upon reasonable request, during normal
business hours to consult with the Sponsor or its designees concerning the performance of the Authorized Participant’s responsibilities under this Agreement. 

(c)    The Authorized Participant, as a DTC Participant, agrees that it shall be bound by all of the obligations of a DTC
Participant in addition to any obligations that it undertakes hereunder or in accordance with a Prospectus. 
 (d)    The
Authorized Participant agrees, subject to any privacy, confidentiality or other obligations it may have to its customers arising under federal or state securities laws or the applicable rules of any self-regulatory organization, to assist the
Sponsor in ascertaining certain information regarding sales of Shares made by or through the Authorized Participant upon request of the Trust or the Sponsor that is necessary for the Trust to comply with its obligations to distribute information to
its shareholders under applicable state or federal securities laws; provided that consistent with market practice, the Authorized Participant may undertake to deliver prospectuses, proxy material, annual and other reports of the Trust or other
similar information that the Trust is obligated to deliver to its shareholders to the Authorized Participant’s customers that custody Shares with the Authorized Participant, after receipt from the Trust or the Sponsor of sufficient quantities
to allow mailing thereof to such customers. The Sponsor agrees that the names and addresses and other information concerning the Authorized Participant’s customers are and shall remain the sole property of the Authorized Participant, and none
of the Sponsor, the Trust or any of their respective affiliates shall use such names, addresses or other information for any purposes except in connection with the performance of their duties and responsibilities hereunder and except for servicing
and informational mailings related to the Trust referred to in this Section 7(d) of this Agreement. 
 Section 8.
Indemnification. 
 (a) The Authorized Participant hereby indemnifies and holds harmless the Sponsor, its respective direct or
indirect affiliates (as defined below) and its respective directors, sponsors, partners, members, managers, officers, employees and agents (each, an “AP Indemnified Party”) from and against any losses, liabilities, damages, costs and
expenses (including reasonable attorney’s fees and the reasonable cost of investigation) incurred by such AP Indemnified Party as a result of: (i) any breach by the Authorized Participant of any provisions of this Agreement that relates to
the Authorized Participant, including its representations, warranties and covenants; (ii) any failure on the part of the Authorized Participant to perform any of its obligations set forth in this Agreement; (iii) any failure by the
Authorized Participant to comply with applicable laws and rules and regulations of self-regulatory organizations to the extent the foregoing relates to the Authorized Participant’s transactions in, and activities with respect to, Shares under
this Agreement, except that the Authorized Participant shall not be required to indemnify an AP Indemnified Party to the extent that such failure was caused by the Authorized Participant’s adherence to instructions given or representations made
by the Sponsor or any AP Indemnified Party, as applicable; (iv) any actions of such AP Indemnified Party in reasonable reliance upon any instructions issued by the Authorized Participant in accordance with the Procedures believed by the AP
Indemnified Party to be genuine and to have been given by the Authorized Participant, except to the extent that the Authorized Participant had previously revoked a PIN Number used in giving such instructions or representations (where applicable) and
such revocation was given by the Authorized Participant and received by the Trust in accordance with the terms of Section 5 hereto; or (v) (A) any representation by the Authorized Participant, its employees or its agents or other
representatives about the Shares, any AP Indemnified 

  
 25 

  
  

 
Party or the Trust that is not consistent with the Trust’s applicable then-current Prospectus made in connection with the offer or the solicitation of an offer to buy or sell Shares and
(B) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any research reports, marketing material and sales literature described in Section 12(b) or any alleged omission to state therein a material fact required
to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein when read together with the applicable Prospectus, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading to the extent that such statement or omission relates to the
Shares or any AP Indemnified Party, unless, in either case, such representation, statement or omission was made or included by the Authorized Participant at the written direction of the Sponsor or is based upon any omission or alleged omission by
the Sponsor to state a material fact in connection with such representation, statement or omission necessary to make such representation, statement or omission not misleading. The Authorized Participant shall not be liable under its indemnity
agreement contained in this paragraph with respect to any claim made against any AP Indemnified Party unless the AP Indemnified Party shall have notified the Authorized Participant in writing of the claim within a reasonable time after the summons
or other first written notification giving information of the nature of the claim shall have been served upon the AP Indemnified Party (or after the AP Indemnified Party shall have received notice of service on any designated agent). However,
failure to notify the Authorized Participant of any claim shall not relieve the Authorized Participant from any liability which it may have to any AP Indemnified Party against whom such action is brought otherwise than on account of its indemnity
agreement contained in this paragraph and shall only release it from such liability under this paragraph to the extent it has been materially prejudiced by such failure to give notice. The Authorized Participant shall be entitled to participate at
its own expense in the defense, or, if it so elects, to assume the defense of any suit brought to enforce any claims, but if the Authorized Participant elects to assume the defense, the defense shall be conducted by counsel chosen by it and
satisfactory to the AP Indemnified Party in the suit, and who shall not, except with the consent of the AP Indemnified Parties, be counsel to the Authorized Participant. If the Authorized Participant does not elect to assume the defense of any suit,
it will reimburse the AP Indemnified Party for the reasonable fees and expenses of any counsel retained by them. 
 (b) The Sponsor hereby
agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Authorized Participant, its respective subsidiaries, affiliates, directors, officers, employees and agents, and each person, if any, who controls such persons within the meaning of Section 15 of the
1933 Act (each, a “Sponsor Indemnified Party”) from and against any losses, liabilities, damages, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and the reasonable cost of investigation) incurred by such Sponsor Indemnified
Party as a result of (i) any breach by the Sponsor of any provision of this Agreement that relates to the Sponsor; (ii) any failure on the part of the Sponsor to perform any obligation of the Sponsor set forth in this Agreement;
(iii) any failure by the Sponsor to comply with applicable laws and the rules and regulations of any governmental entity or any self-regulatory organization; (iv) any untrue statements or omissions made in any promotional material or sales
literature furnished to the Authorized Participant or otherwise approved in writing by the Trust; (v) actions of such Sponsor Indemnified Party in reasonable reliance upon any instructions issued or representations made by the Sponsor or the
Trust in accordance with this Agreement or Attachment A hereto reasonably believed by the Authorized Participant to be genuine and to have been given by the Sponsor or the Trust; or (vi) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a
material fact contained in the applicable Registration Statement of the Trust as originally filed with the SEC or in any amendment thereof, or in the applicable Prospectus, or in any amendment thereof or supplement thereto, or arising out of or
based upon the omission or alleged omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except those statements in the applicable Registration Statement or the applicable
Prospectus based on information furnished in writing by or on behalf of the Authorized Participant expressly for use in the Registration Statement or the Prospectus. The Sponsor shall not be liable under its indemnity agreement contained in this
paragraph with respect to any claim made against any Sponsor Indemnified Party unless the Sponsor Indemnified Party shall have notified the Sponsor in writing of the claim within a reasonable time after the summons or other first written
notification giving information of the nature of the claim shall have been served upon the Sponsor Indemnified Party (or after the Sponsor Indemnified Party shall have received notice of service on any designated agent). However, failure to notify
the Sponsor of any claim shall not relieve the Sponsor from any liability which it may have to any Sponsor Indemnified Party against whom such action is brought otherwise than on account of its indemnity agreement contained in

  
 26 

  
  

 
this paragraph and shall only release it from such liability under this paragraph to the extent it has been materially prejudiced by such failure to give notice. The Sponsor shall be entitled to
participate at its own expense in the defense, or, if it so elects, to assume the defense of any suit brought to enforce any claims, but if the Sponsor elects to assume the defense, the defense shall be conducted by counsel chosen by it and
satisfactory to the Sponsor Indemnified Party in the suit and who shall not, except with the consent of the Sponsor Indemnified Party, be counsel to the Sponsor. If the Sponsor does not elect to assume the defense of any suit, it will reimburse the
Sponsor Indemnified Party in the suit for the reasonable fees and expenses of any counsel retained by them. 
 (c) No indemnifying party, as
described in paragraphs (a) and (b) above, shall, without the written consent of the AP Indemnified Party or the Sponsor Indemnified Party, as the case may be, effect the settlement or compromise of, or consent to the entry of any judgment with
respect to, any pending or threatened action or claim in respect of which indemnification or contribution may be sought hereunder (whether or not the indemnified party is an actual or potential party to such action or claim) unless such settlement,
compromise or judgment (i) includes an unconditional release of the AP Indemnified Party or Sponsor Indemnified Party, as the case may be, from all liability arising out of such action or claim and (ii) does not include a statement as to
or an admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act, by or on behalf of any AP Indemnified Party or Sponsor Indemnified Party, as the case may be. 

(d) The Sponsor and the Authorized Participant agree promptly to notify each other of the commencement of any proceedings or litigation against
it and, in the case of the Sponsor, against any of the Sponsor’s officers or directors, in connection with the issuance and sale of the Shares or in connection with the applicable Registration Statement or the applicable Prospectus. 

Section 9. Liability. 

(a)    Limitation of Liability. Neither the Sponsor nor the Authorized Participant shall be liable to each other or
to any other person for any damages arising out of any mistake or error in data provided to any of them by a third party or out of any interruption or delay in the electronic means of communications used by them. 

(b)    Tax Liability. The Authorized Participant shall be responsible for the payment of any transfer tax, sales or
use tax, stamp tax, recording tax, value added tax and any other similar tax or government charge applicable to the creation or redemption of any Creation Unit made pursuant to this Agreement, regardless of whether or not such tax or charge is
imposed directly on the Authorized Participant. To the extent the Sponsor or the Trust is required by law to pay any such tax or charge, the Authorized Participant agrees to promptly indemnify such party for any such payment, together with any
applicable penalties, additions to tax or interest thereon upon reasonable notice thereof; provided, however, that the Authorized Participant shall not indemnify the Trust or the Sponsor for any tax or charge or any penalties, additions to tax or
interest thereon to the extent that such payments result from the Sponsor’s, the Trust’s, or their designee’s willful misconduct, negligence, or bad faith. 

Section 10. Acknowledgment. The Authorized Participant acknowledges receipt of a (i) copy of the Trust Agreement and
(ii) the current Prospectuses of the Trust, and represents that it has reviewed and understands such documents. The Sponsor and the Trust agree to process Orders, or cause its agents to process Orders, in accordance with the provisions of the
Prospectuses of the Trust, the Trust Agreement, and the Procedures. 
 Section 11. Effectiveness and Termination. Upon the
execution of this Agreement by the parties hereto, this Agreement shall become effective in this form as of the date first set forth above, and may be terminated at any time by any party upon thirty (30) days prior written notice to the other
parties unless earlier terminated: (i) in accordance with Section 2(a)(i); (ii) upon written notice to the Authorized Participant by the Sponsor in the event of a material breach by the Authorized Participant of this Agreement or the
procedures described or incorporated herein; (iii) immediately in the circumstances described in Section 16(j); or (iv) at such time as the Trust is terminated pursuant to the Trust Agreement. This Agreement supersedes any prior
agreement between the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter contained herein. 

  
 27 

  
  

 Section 12. Marketing Materials; Representations Regarding Shares; Identification in
Registration Statement. 
 (a)    The Authorized Participant represents, warrants and covenants that (i) it will
not, in connection with any sale or solicitation of a sale of Shares, make, or permit any of its representatives to make, any representations concerning the Shares or any AP Indemnified Party other than representations not inconsistent with
(A) the applicable then-current Prospectus of the Trust, (B) printed information approved by the Sponsor as information supplemental to such Prospectus or (C) any promotional materials or sales literature furnished to the Authorized
Participant by the Sponsor, and (ii) the Authorized Participant will not furnish or cause to be furnished to any person or display or publish any information or material relating to the Shares or any AP Indemnified Party that are inconsistent
with the Trust’s applicable then-current Prospectus. Copies of the applicable then-current Prospectus of the Trust and any such printed supplemental information will be supplied by the Sponsor to the Authorized Participant in reasonable
quantities upon request. 
 (b)    Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the
Authorized Participant and its affiliates may without the written approval of the Sponsor or the Trust prepare and circulate in the regular course of their businesses research, sales literature, reports, and other similar materials that include
information, opinions or recommendations relating to the Shares, provided that such research, reports, sales literature and other similar materials comply with applicable NASD rules (or with comparable FINRA rules, if such NASD rules are
subsequently repealed, rescinded, or are otherwise replaced by FINRA rules). 
 (c)    The Authorized Participant hereby
agrees that for the term of this Agreement the Sponsor, or its designee, may deliver the applicable then-current Prospectus, and any revisions, supplements or amendments thereto or recirculation thereof, to the Authorized Participant in Portable
Document Format (“PDF”) via electronic mail to                         (or to such other address as may be provided by
the Authorized Participant from time to time) in lieu of delivering the Prospectus in paper form. The Authorized Participant may revoke the foregoing agreement at any time by delivering written notice to the Sponsor, or the Sponsor’s designee,
and, whether or not such agreement is in effect, the Authorized Participant may, at any time, request reasonable quantities of the Prospectus, and any revisions, supplements or amendments thereto or recirculation thereof, in paper form from the
Sponsor or its designee. The Authorized Participant acknowledges that it has the capability to access, view, save and print material provided to it in PDF and that it will incur no appreciable extra costs by receiving the Prospectus in PDF instead
of in paper form. The Sponsor will, when requested by the Authorized Participant, make available, or cause to be made available, at no cost the software and technical assistance necessary to allow the Authorized Participant to access, view and print
the PDF version of the Prospectus. 
 (d)    For as long as this Agreement is effective, if required by the SEC, the
Authorized Participant agrees to be identified as an authorized participant of the Trust (i) in the section of the applicable Prospectus included within the applicable Registration Statement entitled “Creation and Redemption of
Shares” and in any other section as may be required by the SEC and (ii) on the Trust’s website. Upon the termination of this Agreement, (i) during the period prior to when the Fund qualifies and the Sponsor in its sole discretion
elects to file on Form S-3, the Sponsor will remove such identification from the Prospectus in the amendment of the applicable Registration Statement next occurring after the date of the termination of this
Agreement and, during the period after when the Sponsor qualifies and in its sole discretion elects to file on Form S-3, the Sponsor will promptly file a current report on Form
8-K indicating the withdrawal of the Authorized Participant as an authorized participant of the Trust and (ii) the Sponsor will promptly update the Trust’s website to remove any identification of the
Authorized Participant as an authorized participant of the Trust. 

  
 28 

  
  

 Section 13. Certain Covenants of the Sponsor. The Sponsor, on its own behalf and
as sponsor of the Trust, covenants and agrees: 
 (a)    to advise the Authorized Participant promptly of the happening
of any event during the term of this Agreement which could require the making of any change in the Prospectus then being used so that the Prospectus would not include an untrue statement of material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to
make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading, and, during such time, to prepare and furnish, at the expense of the Trust, to the Authorized Participant promptly such amendments or
supplements to such Prospectus as may be necessary to reflect any such change; 
 (b)    to furnish directly or cause to
be furnished to the Authorized Participant, at each time (i) the applicable Registration Statement or the applicable Prospectus is amended or supplemented by the filing of a post-effective amendment, (ii) a new Registration Statement is
filed to register additional Shares in reliance on Rule 429 under the 1933 Act, and (iii) there is financial information incorporated by reference into the applicable Registration Statement or the applicable Prospectus, such customary documents
and certificates in form and content as reasonably requested and agreed; and 
 (c)    to cause the Trust to file a
post-effective amendment to the applicable Registration Statement no less frequently than once per calendar quarter on or about the same time that the Trust files a quarterly or annual report pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the 1934 Act
(including the information contained in such report), until such time as the Trust’s reports filed pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the 1934 Act are incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement. 

Section 14. Force Majeure. No party to this Agreement shall incur any liability for any delay in performance, or for the non-performance, of any of its obligations under this Agreement by reason of any cause beyond its reasonable control. This includes any act of God or war or terrorism, any breakdown, malfunction or failure of
transmission in connection with or other unavailability of any wire or communication facilities, any transport, port, or airport disruption, industrial action, acts and regulations and rules of any governmental or supra-national bodies or
authorities or regulatory or self-regulatory organization or failure of any such body, authority or organization for any reason, to perform its obligations. 

Section 15. Ambiguous Instructions. If a Purchase Order Form or a Redemption Order Form contains order terms that differ from the
information provided in the telephone call at the time of issuance of the applicable order number, the Sponsor will use commercially reasonable efforts to contact one of the Authorized Persons of the Authorized Participant to request confirmation of
the terms of the Order. If an Authorized Person confirms the terms as they appear in the Order, then the Order will be accepted and processed. If an Authorized Person contradicts the Order terms, the Order will be deemed invalid, and a corrected
Order must be received by the Sponsor. If the Sponsor is not able to contact an Authorized Person, then the Order shall be accepted and processed in accordance with its terms notwithstanding any inconsistency from the terms of the telephone
information. In the event that an Order contains terms that are not complete or are illegible, the Order will be deemed invalid and the Sponsor will attempt to contact one of the Authorized Persons of the Authorized Participant to request
retransmission of the Order. 
 Section 16. Miscellaneous. 

(a) Amendment and Modification. This Agreement, the Procedures attached as Attachment A and the Exhibits hereto may be amended, modified
or supplemented by the Trust and the Sponsor, without consent of the Authorized Participant from time to time by the following procedure. After the amendment, modification or supplement has been agreed to, the Sponsor will mail a copy of the
proposed amendment, modification or supplement to the Authorized Participant in accordance with Section 16(c) below. For the purposes of this Agreement, mail will be deemed received by the recipient thereof on the third (3rd) day following the deposit of such mail into the United States postal system. Within fifteen (15) calendar days after its deemed receipt, the amendment, modification or supplement will become
part of this Agreement, the Attachments or the Exhibits, as the case may be, in accordance with its terms. If at any time there is any material amendment, modification or supplement of any ProShares Trust II Authorized Participant Agreement (other
than this Agreement), the Sponsor will promptly mail a copy of such amendment, modification or supplement to the Authorized Participant. 

  
 29 

  
  

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

(c) Notices. Except as otherwise specifically provided in this Agreement, all notices required or permitted to be given pursuant to this
Agreement shall be given in writing and delivered by personal delivery, by postage prepaid registered or certified United States first class mail, return receipt requested, by nationally recognized overnight courier (delivery confirmation received)
or by telex, telegram or telephonic facsimile or similar means of same day delivery (transmission confirmation received), with a confirming copy regular mail, postage prepaid. For avoidance of doubt, notices may not be given or transmitted by
electronic mail. Unless otherwise notified in writing, all notices to the Trust shall be given or sent to the Sponsor. All notices shall be directed to the address or telephone or facsimile numbers indicated below the signature line of the parties
on the signature page hereof. 
 (d) Successors and Assigns. This Agreement and all of the provisions hereof shall be binding upon and
inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. 
 (e) Assignment. Neither this Agreement
nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned by any party without the prior written consent of the other parties, which shall not be unreasonably withheld, except that any entity into which a party hereto may be merged
or converted or with which it may be consolidated or any entity resulting from any merger, conversion, or consolidation to which such party hereunder shall be a party, or any entity succeeding to all or substantially all of the business of the
party, shall be the successor of the party under this Agreement and except that the Sponsor may delegate its obligations hereunder to the Distributor or the Administrator by advance written notice to the Authorized Participant. The party resulting
from any such merger, conversion, consolidation or succession shall notify the other parties hereto of the change. Any purported assignment in violation of the provisions hereof shall be null and void. Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement
shall be automatically assigned to any successor trustee or Sponsor at such time such successor qualifies as a successor trustee or Sponsor under the terms of the Trust Agreement. Furthermore, the Authorized Participant may assign its rights,
interests or obligations hereunder to an affiliate without mutual written consent of any other party. 
 (f) Governing Law; Consent to
Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York (regardless of the laws that might otherwise govern under applicable New York conflict of laws principles) as to all matters,
including matters of validity, construction, effect, performance and remedies. Each party hereto irrevocably consents to the jurisdiction of the courts of the State of New York and of any federal court located in the Borough of Manhattan in such
State in connection with any action, suit or other proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any action taken or omitted hereunder, and waives any claim of forum non conveniens and any objections as to laying of venue. Each party
further waives personal service of any summons, complaint or other process and agrees that service thereof may be made by certified or registered mail directed to such party at such party’s address for purposes of notices hereunder. Each party
hereby waives its right to a trial by jury of any claim arising under or in connection with this Agreement. 
 (g) Counterparts. This
Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which will be deemed to be an original copy of this Agreement and all of which, when taken together, will be deemed to constitute one and the same agreement, and it shall not be
necessary in making proof of this Agreement as to any party hereto to produce or account for more than one such counterpart executed and delivered by such party. 

(h) Interpretation. The article and section headings contained in this Agreement are solely for the purpose of reference, are not part

 (i) Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the Trust Agreement, along with any other
agreement or instrument delivered pursuant to this Agreement and the Trust Agreement, supersede all prior agreements and understandings between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, provided, however, that the Authorized Participant

 (j) Severance. If any provision of this Agreement is
held by any court or any act, regulation, rule or decision of any other governmental or supra national body or authority or regulatory or self-regulatory organization to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable for any reason, it shall be invalid,
illegal or unenforceable only to the extent so held and shall not affect the validity, legality or enforceability of the other provisions of this Agreement so long as this Agreement as so modified continues to express, without material change, the
original intentions of the parties as to the subject matter of this Agreement and the deletion of such portion of this Agreement will not substantially impair the respective benefits, obligations, or expectations of the parties to this Agreement. If
this Agreement as so modified substantially impairs the respective benefits, obligations, or expectations of the parties to this Agreement, it shall be subject to immediate termination upon written notice by the terminating party delivered in
accordance with Section 16(c) of this Agreement.

 EXHIBIT B 

Terms and Conditions For On-line Communications System 

These Electronic Access Terms and Conditions (the “Terms and Conditions”) set forth the terms and conditions under which The Bank of
New York Mellon Corporation and/or its subsidiaries or joint ventures (collectively, “BNY Mellon”) will provide the entities and its (their) affiliates listed on Schedule A (“You” and “Your”)
with access to and use of BNY Mellon’s electronic information delivery site known as “BNY Mellon Connect” and/or other BNY Mellon-designated access portals (“Electronic Access”). Access to and use of Electronic
Access by You is contingent upon and is in consideration for Your compliance with the terms and conditions set forth below. Electronic Access includes access to BNY Mellon web sites accessible via BNY Mellon Connect and/or other BNY
Mellon-designated access portals (“Sites”), pursuant to which You are able to access products and services provided by BNY Mellon as well as data regarding Your accounts. You may amend Schedule A by delivering a revised
version to BNY Mellon. 
 Any particular product or service accessed by You through Electronic Access may be subject to the Custody Agreement,
            , 2018 between ProShares Trust II and The Bank of New York Mellon (the “Services Agreement”). In addition, terms and conditions and restrictions with
respect to any particular product or service accessed through Electronic Access (such as privacy and internet security matters), together with any disclaimers related to the specific products or services, may be set forth on the Sites (hereinafter
referred to as “Terms of Use”) and are applicable to such products and services. You agree to the Terms and Conditions. By any of Your Users accessing the Sites, and the products and services available through Electronic Access, You
agree to any Terms of Use and acknowledge and accept any disclaimers and disclosures included on the Sites and the restrictions concerning the use of proprietary data provided by Information Providers (as defined below) that are posted on the Data
Terms Web Site (as defined below). For the avoidance of doubt, the execution of these Terms and Conditions will not alter or amend or otherwise affect the Services Agreement whether such Services Agreement is executed prior to or after the execution
of these Terms and Conditions. 
  

	1.	 Access Administration: 

 

	 	a.	 To facilitate access to Electronic Access, You will furnish BNY Mellon with a written list of the names, and
the extent of authority or level of access, of persons You are authorizing to access the Sites, products and services and to use the Electronic Access (“Authorized Users”) on a read-only basis. In addition, You may also
designate Authorized Users who will have authority to enter transactions and provide instructions to BNY Mellon that cause a change in or have an impact on assets held by BNY Mellon for Your accounts (“Authorized Transactional
Users”). Where appropriate, Authorized Users and Authorized Transactional Users are collectively referred to herein as “Users.” If You wish to allow any third party (such as an investment manager, consultant or
third party service provider) or any employee of a third party to have access to Your account information through Electronic Access and be included as a “User” under these Terms and Conditions, You may designate a third party or employee
of a third party as an Authorized User or Authorized Transactional User under these Terms and Conditions and any such third party or employee of a third party so designated by You (and, if a third party is so designated, any employee of such third
party designated by such third party) will be included within the definition of Authorized User, Authorized Transactional User, and User as appropriate. 

  

	 	b.	 Upon BNY Mellon’s approval of Users (which approval will not be unreasonably withheld), BNY Mellon will
send You a user-id, temporary password and, where applicable, a security identification device for each User. You will be responsible for providing to Users the
user-ids, temporary passwords and, where applicable, secure identification devices. You will ensure that any User receiving a secure identification device returns such device immediately following the
termination of the User’s authorization to access the products and services for which the secure identification device was provided to such User. You are solely responsible for Users’ access to Electronic Access, and You and Users are
solely responsible for the confidentiality of the user-ids and passwords and secure identification devices that are provided to them and will remain responsible for each secure identification device until it
is returned to BNY Mellon. You, on behalf of You and Your affiliates, acknowledge and agree that, BNY Mellon will have no duty or obligation 

  
  

	 	
to verify or confirm the actual identity of the person who accessed Electronic Access using a validly issued user-id and password (and, where applicable,
security identification device) or that the person who accessed Electronic Access using such validly issued user-id and password (and, where applicable, security identification device) is, in fact, a User
(whether an Authorized User or an Authorized Transactional User). 

  

	 	c.	 You shall not, and shall not permit any User or third party to, breach or attempt to breach any security
measures used in connection with Electronic Access or Proprietary Software. Any attempt to circumvent or penetrate any application, network or other security measures used by BNY Mellon or its suppliers in connection with Electronic Access is
strictly prohibited. 

  

	 	d.	 You are also solely responsible for ensuring that all Users comply with these Terms and Conditions and any
Terms of Use included on the Sites, the Services Agreement for each product or service accessed through the Sites and their associated services and all applicable terms and conditions, restrictions on the use of such products and services and data
obtained through the use of Electronic Access. BNY Mellon reserves the right to prohibit access or revoke the access of any User to Electronic Access whom BNY Mellon determines has violated or breached these terms and conditions or any Terms of Use
on a Site accessed by the User, including the Data Terms Web Site (as defined below), or whose conduct BNY Mellon reasonably determines may constitute a criminal offense, violate any applicable local, state, national, or international law or
constitute a security risk for BNY Mellon, a BNY Mellon’s third party supplier (“BNY Mellon’s Supplier”), BNY Mellon’s clients or any Users of Electronic Access. BNY Mellon may also terminate access to all
Users following termination of all services agreements between You and BNY Mellon. 

  

	2.	 Proprietary Software: Depending upon the products and services You elect to access through
Electronic Access, You may be provided software owned by BNY Mellon or licensed to BNY Mellon by a BNY Mellon Supplier (“Proprietary Software”). You are granted a limited,
non-exclusive, non-transferable license to install the Proprietary Software on Your authorized computer system (including mobile devices registered with BNY Mellon) and
to use the Proprietary Software solely for Your own internal purposes in connection with Electronic Access and solely for the purposes for which it is provided to You. You and Your Users may make copies of the Proprietary Software for backup
purposes only, provided all copyright and other proprietary information included in the original copy of the Proprietary Software are reproduced in or on such backup copies. You shall not reverse engineer, disassemble, decompile or attempt to
determine the source code for, any Proprietary Software. Any attempt to circumvent or penetrate security of the Electronic Access is strictly prohibited. 

  

	3.	 Use of Data: 

 

	 	a.	 Electronic Access may include information and data that is proprietary to the providers of such information or
data (“Information Providers”) or may be used to access Sites that include such information or data from Information Providers. This information and data may be subject to restrictions and requirements which are imposed on
BNY Mellon by the Information Providers and which are posted on http://www.bnymellon.com/products/assetservicing/vendoragreement.pdf or any successor web site of which You are provided notice from time to time (the “Data Terms Web
Site”). You will be solely responsible for ensuring that Users comply with the restrictions and requirements concerning the use of proprietary data that are posted on the Data Terms Web Site. 

 

	 	b.	 You consent to BNY Mellon, its affiliates and BNY Mellon’s Suppliers disclosing to each other and using
data received from You and Users and, where applicable, Your third parties in connection with these Terms and Conditions (including, without limitation, client data and personal data of Users) (1) to the extent necessary for the provision of
Electronic Access; (2) in order for BNY Mellon and its affiliates to meet any of their obligations under these Terms and Conditions to provide Electronic Access; or (3) to the extent necessary for Users to access Electronic Access.

  

	 	c.	 In addition, You permit BNY Mellon to aggregate data concerning Your accounts with other data collected and/or
calculated by BNY Mellon. BNY Mellon will own such aggregated data, but will not distribute the aggregated data in a format that identifies You or Your data. 

  
  

	4.	 Ownership and Rights: 

 

	 	a.	 Electronic Access, including any database, any software (including for the avoidance of doubt, Proprietary
Software) and any proprietary data, processes, scripts, information, training materials, manuals or documentation made available as part of the Electronic Access (collectively, the “Information”), are the exclusive and
confidential property of BNY Mellon and/or BNY Mellon’s suppliers. You may not use or disclose the Information except as expressly authorized by these Terms and Conditions. You will, and will cause Users and Your third parties and their users,
to keep the Information confidential by using the same care and discretion that You use with respect to Your own confidential information, but in no event less than reasonable care. 

 

	 	b.	 The provisions of this paragraph will not affect the copyright status of any of the Information which may be
copyrighted and will apply to all Information whether or not copyrighted. 

  

	 	c.	 Nothing in these Terms and Conditions will be construed as giving You or Users any license or right to use the
trade marks, logos and/or service marks of BNY Mellon, its affiliates, its Information Providers or BNY Mellon’s Suppliers. 

  

	 	d.	 Any Intellectual Property Rights and any other rights or title not expressly granted to You or Users under
these Terms and Conditions are reserved to BNY Mellon, its Information Providers and BNY Mellon’s Suppliers. “Intellectual Property Rights” includes all copyright, patents, trademarks and service marks, rights in designs, moral
rights, rights in computer software, rights in databases and other protectable lists of information, rights in confidential information, trade secrets, inventions and know-how, trade and business names, domain
names (including all extensions, revivals and renewals, where relevant) in each case whether registered or unregistered and applications for any of them and the goodwill attaching to any of them and any rights or forms of protection of a similar
nature and having equivalent or similar effect to any of them which may subsist anywhere in the world. 

  

	5.	 Reliance: 

 

	 	a.	 BNY Mellon will be entitled to rely on, and will be fully protected in acting upon, any actions or instructions
associated with a user-id or a secure identification device issued to a User until such time BNY Mellon receives actual notice in writing from You of the change in status of the User and receipt of the secure
identification device issued to such User. You acknowledge that all commands, directions and instructions, including commands, directions and instructions for transactions issued by a User are issued at Your sole risk. You agree to accept full and
sole responsibility for all such commands, directions and instructions and that BNY Mellon, will have no liability for, and you hereby release BNY Mellon from, any losses, liabilities, damages, costs, expenses, claims, causes of action or judgments
(including attorney’s fees and expenses) (collectively “Losses”) incurred or sustained by you or any other party in connection with or as a result of BNY Mellon’s reliance upon or compliance with such commands,
directions and instructions. 

  

	 	b.	 All commands, directions and instructions involving a transaction entered by an Authorized Transactional User
will be treated as an authorized instruction under the applicable Services Agreement(s) between You and BNY Mellon covering accounts, products and services and products provided by BNY Mellon with respect to which Electronic Access is being used
whether such Services Agreement is executed prior to or after the execution of these Terms and Conditions. 

  

	6.	 Disclaimers: 

 

	 	a.	 Although BNY Mellon uses reasonable efforts to provide accurate and up-to-date information through Electronic Access, BNY Mellon, its Content Providers and Information Providers make no warranties or representations under these Terms and Conditions as to accuracy, reliability
or comprehensiveness of the content, information or data accessed through Electronic Access. Without limiting the foregoing, some of the content on Electronic Access may be provided by sources unaffiliated with BNY Mellon (“Content
 

  
  

	 	
Providers”) and by Information Providers. For that content BNY Mellon is a distributor and not a publisher of such content and has no control over it. Information provided by
Information Providers has not been independently verified by BNY Mellon and BNY Mellon makes no representation as to the accuracy or completeness of the content or information provided. Any opinions, advice, statements, services, offers or
other information given or provided by Content Providers and Information Providers (including merchants and licensors) are those of the respective authors of such content and not that of BNY Mellon. BNY Mellon will not be liable to You or Users
for such content or information in any way nor for any action taken in reliance on such information nor for direct or indirect damages resulting from the use of such information. For purposes of these Terms and Conditions, all information and data,
including all proprietary information and materials and all client data, provided to You through Electronic Access are provided on an “AS-IS”, “AS AVAILABLE” basis. 

 

	 	b.	 BNY Mellon makes no guarantee and does not warrant that Electronic Access or the information and data provided
through the Electronic Access are or will be virus-free or will be free of viruses, worms, Trojan horses or other code with contaminating or destructive properties. BNY Mellon will employ commercially reasonable anti-virus software to its systems to
protect its systems against viruses. 

  

	 	c.	 Some Sites accessed through the use of Electronic Access may include links to websites provided by parties that
are not affiliated with BNY Mellon (“Third Party Websites”). BNY Mellon will not be liable to any person for the content found on such Third Party Websites. BNY Mellon will not be responsible for Third Party Websites that
collect information from parties who visit their web sites through links on the Sites. BNY Mellon will not be liable or responsible for any loss suffered by any person as a result of their use of any Third Party Websites that are linked to the BNY
Mellon Sites. 

  

	 	d.	 BNY Mellon retains complete discretion and authority to add, delete or revise in whole or in part Electronic
Access, including its Sites, and to modify from time to time any Proprietary Software provided in conjunction with the use of Electronic Access and/or any of the Sites. To the extent reasonably possible, BNY Mellon will provide notice of such
modifications. BNY Mellon may terminate immediately and without advance notice, and without right of cure, any portion or component of Electronic Access or the Sites. 

 

	 	e.	 TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THERE IS NO WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, NO WARRANTY OF FITNESS FOR A
PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NO WARRANTY OF QUALITY AND NO WARRANTY OF TITLE OR NONINFRINGEMENT. THERE IS NO OTHER WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, REGARDING ELECTRONIC ACCESS, THE SITES, ANY PROPRIETARY SOFTWARE, INFORMATION, MATERIALS OR CLIENT
DATA. 

 Notwithstanding the prior paragraph, The Bank of New York Mellon or an Affiliate designated by it will defend, indemnify, and
hold harmless You against any and all claims, demands, actions, suits, or proceedings (“Disputes”) asserting that Electronic Access or the Proprietary Software infringe plaintiff(s)’s patent, copyright, or trade secret and BNY Mellon
will pay any amounts agreed to by BNY Mellon in a settlement and damages finally awarded by a court of competent jurisdiction, in a Dispute commenced against You based on a claim that Electronic Access or the Proprietary Software infringe
plaintiff(s)’s patent, copyright, or trade secret. You agree to (i) notify BNY Mellon promptly of any such action or claim (except that the failure to so notify BNY Mellon will not limit BNY Mellon’s obligations hereunder except to
the extent that such failure prejudices BNY Mellon); (ii) grant BNY Mellon or its designated Affiliate full and exclusive authority to defend, compromise or settle such claim or action; and (iii) provide BNY Mellon or its designated Affiliate
all assistance reasonably necessary to so defend, compromise or settle. The foregoing obligations will not apply, however, to any claim or action arising from (i) use of the Proprietary Software Information or Electronic Access in a manner not
authorized under these Terms and Conditions, the Terms of Use, or the Data Terms Web Site; or (ii) use of the Proprietary Software or Electronic Access in combination with other software or services not supplied by BNY Mellon. 

 

	7.	 Limitation of Liability: 

 

	 	a.	 IN NO EVENT WILL BNY MELLON, BNY MELLON’S SUPPLIERS OR ITS CONTENT PROVIDERS OR INFORMATION PROVIDERS BE
LIABLE TO YOU OR ANYONE ELSE UNDER THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR ANY LOSSES, LIABILITIES, DAMAGES, COSTS OR EXPENSES 

  
  

	 	
INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, ANY DIRECT DAMAGES, CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, RELIANCE DAMAGES, EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, INCIDENTAL DAMAGES, SPECIAL DAMAGES, PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INDIRECT DAMAGES OR DAMAGES
FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, GOOD WILL, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, USE, DATA, EQUIPMENT OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES (EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES) THAT RESULT FROM (1) THE USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE ELECTRONIC ACCESS
(2) THE CONSEQUENCES OF ANY DECISION MADE OR ACTION OR NON-ACTION TAKEN BY YOU OR ANY OTHER PERSON, OR FOR ANY ERRORS BY YOU IN COMMUNICATING SUCH INFORMATION; (3) THE COST OF SUBSTITUTE ACCESS
SERVICES; OR (4) ANY OTHER MATTER RELATING TO THE CONTENT OR ACCESS THROUGH ELECTRONIC ACCESS. BNY MELLON WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR LOSS, DAMAGE OR INJURY TO PERSONS OR PROPERTY ARISING FROM ANY USE OF ANY PRODUCT, INFORMATION, PROCEDURE, OR
SERVICE OBTAINED THROUGH ELECTRONIC ACCESS. BNY MELLON WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY LOSS, DAMAGE OR INJURY RESULTING FROM VOLUNTARY SHUTDOWN OF THE SERVER, ELECTRONIC ACCESS, OR ANY OF THE SITES TO ADDRESS TECHNICAL PROBLEMS, COMPUTER VIRUSES, DENIAL
OF SERVICES MESSAGES OR OTHER SIMILAR PROBLEMS. 

  

	 	b.	 BNY MELLON’S ENTIRE LIABILITY AND YOUR EXCLUSIVE REMEDY UNDER THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR ANY DISPUTE
OR CLAIM RELATED TO THESE TERMS OF USE, ELECTRONIC ACCESS OR SITES, IS AS FOLLOWS: IF YOU REPORT A MATERIAL MALFUNCTION IN ELECTRONIC ACCESS THAT BNY MELLON IS ABLE TO REPRODUCE, BNY MELLON WILL USE REASONABLE EFFORTS TO CORRECT THE MALFUNCTION. IF
BNY MELLON IS UNABLE TO CORRECT THE MALFUNCTION, YOU MAY CEASE ALL USE OF ELECTRONIC ACCESS AND RECEIVE A REFUND OF ANY FEES PAID IN ADVANCE, SPECIFICALLY FOR ELECTRONIC ACCESS, APPLICABLE TO PERIODS AFTER CESSATION OF SUCH USE. BECAUSE SOME
JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF LIABILITY FOR DAMAGES, IN SUCH JURISDICTIONS LIABILITY IS LIMITED TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW. 

 

	 	c.	 The limitation of liability set forth in this Limitation of Liability section and in other provisions in these
Terms and Conditions is in addition to any limitation of liability provisions contained in the Services Agreement and will not supersede or be superseded by limitation of liability provisions contained in the Services Agreement, whether executed
prior to or after the execution of these Terms and Conditions, except to the extent specifically set forth in the Services Agreement containing a reference to these Terms and Conditions. 

 

	8.	 Indemnification: 

 

	 	a.	 You agree to indemnify, protect and hold BNY Mellon, BNY Mellon’s Suppliers, Content Providers and
Information Providers harmless from and against all liability, claims damages, costs and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses, resulting from a claim that arises out of (i) any breach by You or Users of these Terms
and Conditions, the Terms of Use or the Data Terms Web Site and (ii) any person obtaining access to Electronic Access through You or Users through use of any password, user-id or secure identification
device issued to a User, whether or not You or a User authorized such access. For the avoidance of doubt, and by way of illustration and not by way of limitation, the foregoing indemnity is applicable to disputes between the parties, including the
enforcement of these Terms and Conditions. The rights and remedies conferred hereunder will be cumulative and the exercise or waiver of any such right or remedy will not preclude or inhibit the exercise of additional rights or remedies or the
subsequent exercise of such right or remedy. 

  

	 	b.	 The indemnity provided in herein is in addition to any indemnity and other remedies contained in the Services
Agreement and will not supersede or be superseded by the Services Agreement, whether executed prior to or after the execution of these Terms and Conditions, except to the extent specifically set forth in the Services Agreement and expressly stating
an intent to modify this Terms and Conditions. 

  

	 	c.	 Nothing contained herein will, or be deemed to, alter or modify the rights and remedies of BNY Mellon or Your
rights and remedies as set forth in the Services Agreement. 

  
  

	9.	 Choice of Law and Forum: Unless otherwise agreed and specified herein, these Terms
and Conditions are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without giving effect to any principles of conflicts of law; You expressly and irrevocably agree that exclusive jurisdiction and venue for any claim
or dispute with BNY Mellon, its employees, contractors, officers or directors or relating in any way to Your use of Electronic Access resides in the state or federal courts in New York City, New York; and You further irrevocably agree and expressly
and irrevocably consent to the exercise of personal jurisdiction in those courts over any action brought with respect to these Terms and Conditions. BNY Mellon and You hereby waive the right of trial by jury in any action arising out of or related
to the BNY Mellon or these Terms and Conditions to the fullest extent permitted by law. 

  

	10.	 Term and Termination: 

 

	 	a.	 Either BNY Mellon or You may terminate these Terms and Conditions and the Electronic Access upon thirty
(30) days’ written notice to the other party. 

  

	 	b.	 In the event of any breach of the provisions of these Terms and Conditions or a breach by any Authorized User
of the Terms of Use or the restrictions and requirements concerning the use of Information Providers’ proprietary data that are posted on the Data Terms Web Site, the non-breaching party may terminate
these Terms and Conditions and the Electronic Access immediately upon written notice to the breaching party if any breach remains uncured after ten (10) business days’ written notice of the breach is sent to the breaching party.

  

	 	c.	 BNY Mellon may with notice to You immediately terminate access through an Authorized User’s user-id and password and may, at its discretion, also terminate access by an Authorized User, without right of cure, in the event of an unauthorized use of an Authorized User’s
user-id or password, or where BNY Mellon believes there is a security risk created by such access. 

  

	 	d.	 BNY Mellon may terminate, with as much advance notice as practicable, Your access or the access of Users to any
portion or component of Electronic Access or the Sites in the event a BNY Mellon Supplier, Content Provider or Information Provider prohibits BNY Mellon from permitting You or Users to have access to their information or services.

  

	 	e.	 Promptly upon receiving or giving notice of termination, You will notify all Users of the effective date of the
termination. 

  

	 	f.	 Upon termination of Your access to Electronic Access, You shall return manuals, documentation, workflow
descriptions and the like that are in Your possession or under Your control and all security identification devices. 

  

	 	g.	 The Reliance, Disclaimers, Limitation of Liability, Indemnification and Confidentiality provisions of these
Terms and Conditions (and other provision of these Terms and Conditions containing disclaimers, limitation of liability and indemnification) shall survive the termination or expiration of these Terms and Conditions. 

 

	11.	 Miscellaneous: For purposes of clarification, notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained in these Terms and Conditions, the Indemnification (section 8) and Limitation of Liability (section 7) provisions of these Terms and Conditions apply solely to Your access to and use of BNY Mellon’s electronic information delivery
site known as “BNY Mellon Connect” and/or other BNY Mellon-designated access portals, and such provisions of these Terms and Conditions do not modify, amend or supersede any provisions of the Services Agreement or any other agreement
between You and BNY Mellon. 

 Each party represents and warrants to the other party that these Terms and Conditions and the indemnity
contained herein have been duly authorized and accepted, that such party has full authority to enter into these Terms and Conditions and that these Terms and Conditions constitute a binding obligation enforceable in accordance with its terms.
