and in accordance with this Agreement has been made in the Deposit Account by
the Sponsor on the date hereof in exchange for one Share. The Sponsor is
purchasing the initial Share solely for the purpose of forming the Trust. The
Sponsor will redeem the initial Share for 100 Euro as promptly as practicable
after the Form S-1 registration statement filed with the Commission is declared
effective by the Commission and the Initial Purchaser, as defined in the
registration statement, deposits euro in accordance with the registration
statement.

          (b) The Trustee declares that it will hold that initial deposit and
all other Trust Property as trustee for the benefit of the Registered Owners for
the purposes of, and subject to and limited by the terms and conditions set
forth in, this Agreement. The trust created by this Agreement shall be known as
the "Euro Currency Trust".

          (c) The Trust shall not engage in any business or activities other
than those authorized by this Agreement or incidental and necessary to carry out
the duties and responsibilities set forth in this Agreement. Other than issuance
of the Shares, the Trust shall not issue or sell any certificates or other
obligations or, except as provided in this Agreement, otherwise incur, assume or
guarantee any indebtedness for money borrowed.

                                        9

          Section 2.2 Form of Certificates; Book-Entry System; Transferability
of Shares.

          (a) The Certificates evidencing Shares shall be substantially in the
form set forth in Exhibit B annexed to this Agreement, with appropriate
insertions, modifications and omissions, as hereinafter provided. No Shares
shall be entitled to any benefits under this Agreement or be valid or obligatory
for any purpose unless a Certificate evidencing those Shares has been executed
by the Trustee by the manual or facsimile signature of a duly authorized
signatory of the Trustee and, if a Registrar (other than the Trustee) for the
Shares shall have been appointed, countersigned by the manual signature of a
duly authorized officer of the Registrar. The Trustee shall maintain books on
which the registered ownership of each Share and transfers, if any, of such
registered ownership shall be recorded. Certificates evidencing Shares bearing
the manual or facsimile signature of a duly authorized signatory of the Trustee
and the manual signature of a duly authorized officer of the Registrar, if
applicable, who was, at the time such Certificates were executed, a proper
signatory of the Trustee or Registrar, if applicable, shall bind the Trustee,
notwithstanding that such signatory has ceased to hold such office prior to the
delivery of such Certificates.

          (b) The Certificates may be endorsed with or have incorporated in the
text thereof such legends or recitals or modifications not inconsistent with the
provisions of this Agreement as may be required by the Trustee or required to
comply with any applicable law or regulations thereunder or with the rules and
regulations of the Exchange or to conform with any usage with respect thereto,
or to indicate any special limitations or restrictions to which the Shares
evidenced by a particular Certificate are subject.

          (c) The Sponsor and the Trustee will apply to DTC for acceptance of
the Shares in its book-entry settlement system. Shares deposited with DTC shall
be evidenced by one or more global Certificates which shall be registered in the
name of Cede & Co., as nominee for DTC, and shall bear the following legend:

                                       10

          UNLESS THIS CERTIFICATE IS PRESENTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE
          OF THE DEPOSITORY TRUST COMPANY, A NEW YORK CORPORATION ("DTC"), TO
          THE AGENT AUTHORIZED BY THE ISSUER FOR REGISTRATION OF TRANSFER,
          EXCHANGE OR PAYMENT, AND ANY CERTIFICATE ISSUED IS REGISTERED IN THE
          NAME OF CEDE & CO. OR IN SUCH OTHER NAME AS IS REQUESTED BY AN
          AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF DTC (AND ANY PAYMENT IS MADE TO CEDE &
          CO. OR TO SUCH OTHER ENTITY AS IS REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED
          REPRESENTATIVE OF DTC), ANY TRANSFER, PLEDGE, OR OTHER USE HEREOF FOR
          VALUE OR OTHERWISE BY OR TO ANY PERSON IS WRONGFUL INASMUCH AS THE
          REGISTERED OWNER HEREOF, CEDE & CO., HAS AN INTEREST HEREIN.

          (d) So long as the Shares are eligible for book-entry settlement with
DTC and such settlement is available, unless otherwise required by law,
notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.2(a) and Section 2.2(b), all Shares
shall be evidenced by one or more global Certificates the Registered Owner of
which is DTC or a nominee of DTC and (i) no Beneficial Owner of Shares will be
entitled to receive a separate Certificate evidencing those Shares, (ii) the
interest of a Beneficial Owner in Shares represented by a global Certificate
will be shown only on, and transfer of that interest will be effected only
through, records maintained by DTC or a DTC Participant or Indirect Participant
through which the Beneficial Owner holds that interest and (iii) the rights of a
Beneficial Owner with respect to Shares represented by a global Certificate will
be exercised only to the extent allowed by, and in compliance with, the
arrangements in effect between such Beneficial Owner and DTC or the DTC
Participant or Indirect Participant through which that Beneficial Owner holds an
interest in Shares.

          (e) If, at any time when Shares are evidenced by a global Certificate,
DTC ceases to make its book-entry settlement system available for such Shares,
the Trustee shall execute and deliver separate Certificates evidencing Shares to
the DTC Participants entitled thereto, with such additions, deletions and
modifications to this Agreement and to the form of Certificate evidencing Shares
as the Sponsor and the Trustee may agree.

                                       11

          (f) Title to a Certificate evidencing Shares (and to the Shares
evidenced thereby), when properly endorsed or accompanied by proper instruments
of transfer, shall be transferable by delivery with the same effect as in the
case of a negotiable instrument under the laws of New York; provided, however,
that the Trustee, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary, may treat the
Registered Owner of Shares as the absolute owner thereof for the purpose of
determining the person entitled to any distribution or to any notice provided
for in this Agreement and for all other purposes.

          Section 2.3 Deposit of Euro.

          (a) After the initial deposit of Euro in the Trust, the issuance and
Delivery of Shares will take place only in integral numbers of Baskets and in
compliance with the provisions of this Agreement, as supplemented by any
procedures attached to an applicable Authorized Participant Agreement, to the
extent those procedures are consistent with this Agreement. Authorized
Participants wishing to acquire from the Trustee one or more Baskets must place
an order with the Trustee (a "Purchase Order"). Purchase Orders received by the
Trustee prior to the Order Cutoff Time on a New York Business Day will have that
day as the Order Date. Purchase Orders received on a day that is not a New York
Business Day or received after the Order Cutoff Time on a New York Business Day
will have the next following New York Business Day as the Order Date. The
"Settlement Date" for a Purchase Order shall occur on the earliest date that is
no less than the third New York Business Day and the third London Business Day
following the Order Date. As consideration for each Basket acquired, Authorized
Participants must deposit with the Depository, for credit to the Deposit
Account, the Basket Euro Amount determined by the Trustee on the Business Day
prior to the Settlement Date for the corresponding Purchase Order. Euro must be
Delivered to the Depository.

          (b) The Trustee shall determine the Basket Euro Amount for each New
York Business Day. The initial "Basket Euro Amount" is 5,000,000 Euro. After the
initial deposit, the "Basket Euro Amount" shall be an amount of Euro equal to
the quotient obtained by dividing the NAV per Basket on the date on which the
determination is being made by the Relevant Price on such date. For purposes of
this computation, "NAV per

                                       12

Basket" is the product obtained by multiplying (x) the NAV per Share determined
in compliance with Section 4.1, by (y) the number of Shares which constitute a
Basket on the date on which the determination is being made. Fractions of a Euro
smaller than .001 shall be disregarded. The Sponsor intends to publish, or may
designate other persons to publish, for each New York Business Day, the Basket
Euro Amount.

          (c) If the Trust Property includes Surplus Property, no deposits of
Euro will be accepted until after a record date for distribution of that money
or property, or proceeds from that property, has passed.

          (d) All deposited Euro shall be owned by the Trust and held for the
Trust by the Depository in the Deposit Account. Any assets of the Trust other
than Euro shall be held by the Trustee or the Depository at such place and in
such manner as the Trustee shall determine.

          Section 2.4 Delivery of Shares.

          Upon receipt by the Trustee of any deposit in accordance with Section
2.3, together with a Purchase Order and the other documents required under this
Agreement, if any, and a confirmation from the Depository that the Euro Deposit
Amount has been Delivered to the Depository for each Basket of Shares and the
Depository is holding that Euro for the account of the Trust, the Trustee,
subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, shall Deliver to the
Depositor the number of Baskets of Shares issuable in respect of such deposit as
requested in the corresponding Purchase Order, but only upon payment to the
Trustee of the fees and expenses of the Trustee as provided in Section 6.6 and
of all taxes and governmental charges and fees payable in connection with such
deposit, the transfer of the Euro and the issuance and Delivery of the Shares.

                                       13

          Section 2.5 Registration and Registration of Transfer of Shares;
Combination and Split-up of Certificates.

          (a) The Trustee shall keep or cause to be kept a register of
Registered Owners of Shares and shall provide for the registration of Shares and
the registration of transfers of Shares.

          (b) The Trustee, subject to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, shall register transfers of ownership of Shares on its transfer books
from time to time, upon any Surrender of a Certificate evidencing such Shares,
by the Registered Owner in person or by a duly authorized attorney, properly
endorsed or accompanied by proper instruments of transfer, and duly stamped as
may be required by the laws of the State of New York and of the United States of
America. Thereupon the Trustee shall execute a new Certificate or Certificates
evidencing such Shares, and deliver the same to or upon the order of the Person
entitled thereto.

          (c) The Trustee, subject to the terms and conditions of this
Agreement, shall, upon Surrender of a Certificate or Certificates evidencing
Shares for the purposes of effecting a split-up or combination of that
certificate or certificates, execute and deliver one or more new Certificates
evidencing those Shares.

          (d) The Trustee may, with the written approval of the Sponsor (which
approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), appoint one or more co-transfer
agents for the purpose of effecting registration of transfers of Shares and
combinations and split-ups of Certificates at designated transfer offices on
behalf of the Trustee at the Trustee's expense. In carrying out its functions, a
co-transfer agent may require evidence of authority and compliance with
applicable laws and other requirements by Registered Owners or Persons entitled
to Shares and will be entitled to protection and indemnity to the same extent as
the Trustee.

                                       14

          Section 2.6 Surrender of Shares and Withdrawal of Trust Property.

          (a) Upon Surrender of any integral number of Baskets for the purpose
of withdrawal of the amount of Trust Property represented thereby, and upon
payment of the fee of the Trustee in connection with the Surrender of Shares as
provided in Section 6.6 and payment of all taxes and charges payable in
connection with such Surrender and withdrawal of Trust Property, and subject to
the terms and conditions of this Agreement, an Authorized Participant acting on
authority of the Registered Owner of those Shares will be entitled to Delivery,
in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, as supplemented by any
procedures attached to an applicable Authorized Participant Agreement, to the
extent those procedures are consistent with this Agreement, of the amount of
Trust Property at the time represented by such Baskets, including the Basket
Euro Amounts corresponding to such Baskets for the New York Business Day prior
to the Settlement Date (as defined below), but excluding from those Basket Euro
Amounts any portion that represents the value of Trust Property that is not held
as Euro. Authorized Participants wishing to redeem one or more Baskets must
place an order with the Trustee (a "Redemption Order"). Redemption Orders
received by the Trustee prior to the Order Cutoff Time on a New York Business
Day will have that day as the Order Date. Redemption Orders received by the
Trustee after the Order Cutoff Time on a New York Business Day or on a day that
is not a New York Business Day will have the next New York Business Day as the
Order Date. The "Settlement Date" for a Redemption Order shall occur on the
earliest date that is no less than the third New York Business Day and the third
London Business Day following the Order Date. Euro will be Delivered from the
Deposit Account by the Depository. Any Trust Property other than Euro will be
delivered by the Trustee.

          (b) The Trustee may require that a Certificate evidencing Shares
Surrendered for the purpose of withdrawal is properly endorsed in blank or
accompanied by proper instruments of transfer in blank. Upon a Surrender of an
integral number of Baskets of Shares and satisfaction of all the conditions for
withdrawal of Trust Property, the Trustee shall instruct the Depository to
Deliver, to or to the order of the Surrendering Authorized Participant, the
amount of Euro represented by the Surrendered Baskets of

                                       15

Shares and the Depository or the Trustee shall pay or deliver to or to the order
of the Surrendering Authorized Participant the amount of any other Trust
Property represented by the Surrendered Baskets of Shares. Any Delivery of Euro
other than by wire transfer or at the office of the Depository will be at the
expense and risk of the Authorized Participant.

          Section 2.7 Limitations on Delivery, Registration of Transfer and
Surrender of Shares.

          (a) As a condition precedent to the Delivery, registration of
transfer, split-up, combination or Surrender of any Shares or withdrawal of any
Trust Property, the Trustee or Registrar may require payment from the Depositor
or the Authorized Participant Surrendering the Shares of a sum sufficient to
reimburse it for any tax or other governmental charge and any stock transfer or
registration fee with respect thereto (including any such tax or charge and fee
with respect to any securities being withdrawn) and payment of any applicable
fees as herein provided, may require the production of proof satisfactory to it
as to the identity and genuineness of any signature and may also require
compliance with any regulations the Trustee may establish consistent with the
provisions of this Agreement, including this Section 2.7.

          (b) The Delivery of Shares against deposits of Euro or the
registration of transfer of Shares may be suspended generally, or refused with
respect to particular requested Deliveries or transfers, during any period when
the transfer books of the Trustee are closed or if any such action is deemed
necessary or advisable by the Trustee or the Sponsor for any reason at any time
or from time to time. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the
Surrender of Shares for purposes of withdrawing Trust Property may not be
suspended.

          Section 2.8 Lost Certificates, Etc.

          The Trustee shall execute and deliver a new Certificate of like tenor
in exchange and substitution for a mutilated Certificate upon cancellation
thereof, or in lieu

                                       16

of and in substitution for a destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate if the
Registered Owner thereof has (a) filed with the Trustee (i) a request for such
execution and delivery before the Trustee has notice that the Shares evidenced
by the Certificate have been acquired by a protected purchaser and (ii) a
sufficient indemnity bond, and (b) satisfied any other reasonable requirements
imposed by the Trustee.

          Section 2.9 Cancellation and Destruction of Surrendered Certificates.

          All Certificates Surrendered to the Trustee shall be canceled by the
Trustee. The Trustee is authorized to destroy Certificates so canceled.

          Section 2.10 Splits and Reverse Splits of Shares.

          If requested in writing by the Sponsor, the Trustee shall effect a
split or reverse split of the Shares as of a record date set by the Trustee in
accordance with procedures determined by the Trustee.

          The Trustee is not required to distribute any fraction of a Share in
connection with a split or reverse split of the Shares. The Trustee may sell the
aggregated fractions of Shares that would otherwise be distributed in a split or
reverse split of the Shares or the amount of Trust Property that would be
represented by those Shares and distribute the net proceeds of those Shares or
that Trust Property to the Registered Owners entitled to them.

          The amount of Trust Property represented by each Share and the Basket
Euro Amount shall be adjusted as appropriate as of the open of business on the
New York Business Day following the record date for a split or reverse split of
the Shares.

                                       17

                                    ARTICLE 3

               CERTAIN OBLIGATIONS OF REGISTERED OWNERS OF SHARES

          Section 3.1 Liability of Registered Owner for Taxes and Other
Governmental Charges.

          If any tax or other governmental charge shall become payable by the
Trustee with respect to any transfer or redemption of Shares, such tax or other
governmental charge shall be payable by the Registered Owner of such Shares to
the Trustee. The Trustee shall refuse to effect any registration of transfer of
such Shares or any withdrawal of Trust Property represented by such Shares until
such payment is made, and may withhold any distributions, or may sell for the
account of the Registered Owner thereof Trust Property or Shares, and may apply
such distributions or the proceeds of any such sale in payment of such tax or
other governmental charge, and the Registered Owner of such Shares shall remain
liable for any deficiency. The Trustee shall distribute any net proceeds of a
sale made under the preceding sentence that remain, after payment of the tax or
other governmental charge, to the Registered Owners entitled thereto as in the
case of a distribution in cash.

          Section 3.2 Warranties on Deposit of Euro.

          Every Person depositing Euro under this Agreement shall be deemed
thereby to represent and warrant that the Person making such deposit is duly
authorized to do so and that at the time of delivery, the Euro are free and
clear of any lien, pledge, encumbrance, right, charge or claim (other than the
rights created by this Agreement). All representations and warranties deemed
made under this Section 3.2 shall survive the deposit of Euro, Delivery or
Surrender of Shares or termination of this Agreement.

                                       18

                                    ARTICLE 4

                           ADMINISTRATION OF THE TRUST

          Section 4.1 Evaluation of Euro; Calculation of Net Asset Value.

          As promptly as practicable after the determination of the Relevant
Price on each New York Business Day, ordinarily no later than 2:00 PM (New York
time), the Trustee will calculate, and the Sponsor or a person designated by the
Sponsor will publish, the Trust's net asset value ("NAV"). To calculate the NAV,
the Trustee will:

          (a) take the amount of Euro in the Deposit Account as of the close of
business on the preceding London Business Day, as reported by the Depository;

          (b) add interest accrued but unpaid on the Deposit Account through the
preceding day;

          (c) subtract the accrued but unpaid Sponsor's Fee through the
preceding day;

          (d) add Euro receivable by the Trust under Purchase Orders having
Order Dates on or before the preceding New York Business Day;

          (e) subtract Euro payable by the Trust under Redemption Orders having
Order Dates on or before the preceding New York Business Day;

          (f) convert the result after step (e) into Dollars using the Relevant
Price;

          (g) add the dollar value of any other assets included in the Trust
Property as of the close of business on the preceding New York Business Day; and

          (h) subtract the dollar value of any other expenses and liabilities of
the Trust as of the close of business on the preceding New York Business Day.

                                       19

          The result is the NAV of the Trust for that New York Business Day. The
Trustee shall also divide the NAV of the Trust by the number of Shares
outstanding for the date of the evaluation then being made, which figure is the
"NAV per Share." For purposes of the preceding sentence, the number of Shares
deemed outstanding shall include Shares to be Delivered under Purchase Orders
having Order Dates on or before the preceding New York Business Day and shall
exclude Shares to be Surrendered under Redemption Orders having Order Dates on
or before the preceding New York Business Day.

          Section 4.2 Responsibility of the Trustee for Evaluations.

          The Sponsor, Depositors, Registered Owners and Beneficial Owners may
rely on any evaluation or determination of any amount made by the Trustee, and
the Sponsor shall have no responsibility for the accuracy thereof. The
determinations made by the Trustee under this Agreement shall be made in good
faith upon the basis of, and the Trustee shall not be liable for any errors
contained in, information reasonably available to it. The Trustee shall be under
no liability to the Sponsor, or to Depositors, Registered Owners or Beneficial
Owners, for errors in judgment; provided, however, that this provision shall not
protect the Trustee against any liability to which it would otherwise be subject
by reason of negligence or bad faith in the performance of its duties.

          Section 4.3 Deposit Account Interest.

          The Trustee will deposit all Euro into the Deposit Account, which will
accrue interest in accordance with the terms of the Deposit Account Agreement.

          Section 4.4 Cash Distributions.

          On the first London Business Day of each month that is also a New York
Business Day, the Depository will deposit into the Deposit Account the accrued
but unpaid interest for the previous month and the Trustee will make
withdrawals from the Deposit Account to pay the accrued Sponsor's Fee for the

                                       20

previous month plus any other Trust expenses. In the event that the interest
deposited exceeds the sum of the Sponsor's Fee for the previous month plus other
Trust expenses, if any, then the Trustee shall convert the excess into Dollars
in accordance with Section 4.9 and, as promptly as practicable, declare a record
date and distribute the net proceeds to Shareholders of record on a pro rata
basis (in accordance with the number of Shares that they own); provided,
however, that in the event that the Trustee shall be required to withhold and
does withhold from such cash an amount on account of taxes, the amount
distributed to the Registered Owners shall be reduced accordingly; and provided,
further, that the Trustee shall round the amount paid to each Registered Owner
to the nearest whole cent.

          Section 4.5 Distributions of Surplus Property.

          At any time that the Trust Property includes Surplus Property, the
Trustee shall, as promptly as practicable, (a) distribute all Surplus Property
consisting of Dollars to the Registered Owners in proportion to the number of
Shares held by them, (b) convert into Dollars or sell for Dollars all other
Surplus Property and distribute the Dollar proceeds, net of the fees and
expenses of the Trustee, to the Registered Owners in proportion to the number of
Shares held by them. If the Trust Property includes any Surplus Property that is
not Euro, the Trustee shall suspend deposits of Euro for the purpose of issuance
of Shares until after a record date for distribution of that Surplus Property,
or proceeds of that Surplus Property, has passed.

          Section 4.6 Fixing of Record Date.

          Whenever any distribution will be made, or whenever the Trustee
receives notice of any solicitation of proxies or consents from Registered
Owners, or whenever for any reason there is split, reverse split or other change
in the outstanding Shares, or whenever the Trustee shall find it necessary or
convenient in respect of any matter, the Trustee, in consultation with the
Sponsor, shall fix a record date for the determination of the Registered Owners
who shall be (i) entitled to receive such distribution or the net proceeds of
the sale thereof, (ii) entitled to give such proxies or consents in respect of
any such solicitation or (iii) entitled to act in respect of any other matter
for which the record

                                       21

date was set.

          Section 4.7 Payment of Trust Expenses.

     (a) The following expenses are or may be accrued and paid by the Trust:

          (1) the Sponsor's Fee and other fees and expenses of the Sponsor set
forth in Section 5.6;

          (2) expenses of the Trust not assumed by the Sponsor pursuant to
Section 5.1(b);

          (3) taxes and other governmental charges;

          (4) expenses and costs of any extraordinary services performed by the
Trustee or the Sponsor on behalf of the Trust or action taken by the Trustee or
the Sponsor to protect the Trust or the interests of Registered Owners; and

          (5) indemnification of the Sponsor as provided in Section 7.1(d).

     (b) On the first London Business Day of each month that is also a New York
Business Day, the Trustee shall withdraw from the Deposit Account amounts
necessary to pay the Trust expenses provided for in Section 4.7(a) and any
otherwise unpaid expenses hereunder. The Trustee will withdraw and sell
sufficient Euro to purchase an amount of currency other than Euro sufficient to
pay any Trust expenses payable other than in Euro and the costs of currency
conversion.

     (c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if requested by the Sponsor and agreed
to by the Trustee, the Trustee will advance amounts out of its own funds for the
payment of Trust expenses, provided that the amount advanced at any time shall
not exceed $20,000. The amount of such advances, plus the cost of meeting
reserve requirements imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve
System, together with interest thereon at a

                                       22

percentage rate equal to then-current overnight federal funds rate, shall be
expenses of the Trust. The Trustee shall have a lien on the balances on hand in
the Deposit Account to the extent of all amounts advanced by it pursuant to this
Section 4.7(c), which lien shall be superior to the interest of the Registered
Owners.

     (d) The Trustee is conclusively authorized to sell Euro in the smallest
amounts required to permit payment of Trust expenses, it being the intention to
minimize the Trust's holdings of assets other than Euro. Neither the Trustee nor
the Sponsor shall have any liability for loss or depreciation resulting from
sales of Euro so made. The Trustee shall not be liable or responsible in any way
for depreciation or loss incurred by reason of any sale made pursuant the
Sponsor's direction or otherwise in accordance with this Section 4.7(d).

          Section 4.8 Statements and Reports.

          After the end of each fiscal year and within the time period required
by applicable laws, rules and regulations, at the Sponsor's expense, the Trustee
shall send to the Registered Owners at the end of such fiscal year, an annual
report of the Trust containing financial statements audited by independent
accountants designated by the Sponsor and such other information as may be
required by such laws, rules and regulations or otherwise, or which the Sponsor
determines shall be included. The Trustee may distribute the annual report by
any means acceptable to the Registered Owners and that complies with applicable
laws, rules and regulations.

          Section 4.9 Further Provisions for Sales of Trust Property; Currency
Conversion.

          In addition to selling Euro in accordance with Section 4.7, the
Trustee shall sell Euro whenever any one or more of the following conditions
exist:

                                       23

          (i) the Sponsor has notified the Trustee that such sale is required by
          applicable law or regulation; or

          (ii) the Trust is to be terminated and its assets liquidated in
          accordance with Section 8.2.

          When the Trustee is required or permitted to sell Trust Property, it
may sell that Trust Property by public or private sale in any manner and on any
terms that are (i) commercially reasonable in the circumstances and (ii)
reasonably calculated to maximize the value of the Trust Property while taking
into account any duty of the Trustee under this Agreement to sell that Trust
Property as promptly as practicable.

          However, whenever the Trustee is required or permitted to sell Trust
Property that is currency, if at the time of the receipt thereof the received
currency can, in the judgment of the Trustee, be converted on a reasonable basis
into the required currency that, if applicable, is transferable to the United
States, the Trustee shall place orders with dealers (which may include the
Depository or the Trustee or any of their affiliates) through which it may
reasonably expect to obtain a commercially reasonable rate of exchange (net of
commission) and good execution of orders.

          If such conversion can be effected only with the approval or license
of any government or agency thereof, the Trustee shall file such application for
approval or license, if any, as it may deem desirable.

          If at any time the Trustee shall determine that in its judgment the
received currency is not convertible on a reasonable basis into the required
currency or that, if applicable, is transferable to the United States, or if any
approval or license of any government or agency thereof which is required for
such conversion is denied or in the opinion of the Trustee is not obtainable, or
if any such approval or license is not obtained within a reasonable period as
determined by the Trustee, the Trustee may distribute the received currency (or
an appropriate document evidencing the right to receive such received currency)
to, or in its discretion may hold such received currency for the

                                       24

respective accounts of, the persons entitled to receive it. Any interest earned
or investment gains attributable to amounts withheld from distribution shall be
held by the Trustee for distribution to the Registered Owners entitled to the
amount to which the interest or gain is attributable.

          If any such conversion of received currency, in whole or in part,
cannot be effected for distribution to some of the persons entitled to it, the
Trustee may in its discretion make such conversion and distribution in required
to the extent permissible to the persons entitled to it and may distribute the
balance of the received currency to, or in its discretion may hold such received
currency for the respective accounts of, the persons entitled to receive it. Any
interest earned or investment gains attributable to amounts withheld from
distribution shall be held by the Trustee for distribution to the Registered
Owners entitled to the amount to which the interest or gain is attributable.

          The Trustee and the Sponsor shall not be liable or responsible in any
way for depreciation or loss incurred by reason of any sale made pursuant to
this Section 4.9.

          Section 4.10 Counsel.

          The Sponsor may from time to time employ counsel to act on behalf of
the Trust and perform any legal services in connection with the Euro and the
Trust, including any legal matters relating to the possible disposition or
acquisition of any Euro. The reasonable fees and expenses of such counsel shall
be paid by the Sponsor up to an aggregate maximum of $100,000 per year, with any
excess amount to be paid by the Trust.

          Section 4.11 Grantor Trust.

          Nothing in this Agreement, any agreement with a Depository, or
otherwise, shall be construed to give the Trustee or Sponsor the power to vary
the investment of the Beneficial Owners within the meaning of Section
301.7701-4(c) under the Code or any similar or successor provision of the
regulations under the Code, nor

                                       25

shall the Sponsor give the Trustee any direction that would vary the investment
of the Beneficial Owners. However, the Trustee shall not be liable to any Person
for any failure of the Trust to qualify as a grantor trust under the Code or any
comparable provision of the laws of any State or other jurisdiction where that
treatment is sought, except that this sentence shall not limit the Trustee's
responsibility for the administration of the Trust in accordance with this
Agreement. Neither the Trustee nor the Sponsor will agree to any amendment of
the Deposit Account Agreement unless the Trustee and the Sponsor obtain a prior
written opinion of counsel to the effect that such amendment will have no
adverse effect on the classification of the Trust as a "grantor trust" under the
Code.

                                    ARTICLE 5

          Section 5.1 Duties of the Sponsor.

          (a) The Sponsor is responsible for establishing the Trust and for the
registration of the Shares. The Sponsor will generally oversee the performance
of the Trustee and the Trust's principal service providers, but will not
exercise day-to-day oversight over the Trustee or such service providers. The
Sponsor will regularly communicate with the Trustee to monitor the overall
performance of the Trust. The Sponsor will also designate the independent
certified public accountants of the Trust and may from time to time employ legal
counsel for the Trust.

     (b) The Sponsor shall be responsible for all organizational expenses of the
Trust, and for the following administrative and marketing expenses of the Trust:
the Trustee's monthly fee, routine transaction and maintenance fees charged by
the Depository, listing fees of the Exchange, registration fees charged by the
Commission, printing and mailing costs, audit fees, legal fees and expenses not
in excess of $100,000 per year and any applicable license fee.

                                       26

          (c) The Sponsor will monitor the interest rate paid by the Depository
and has the right and duty to instruct the Trustee to terminate the Deposit
Account Agreement if the Sponsor considers the interest rate to be
noncompetitive.

          Section 5.2 Obligations of the Sponsor.

          (a) The Sponsor does not assume any obligation nor shall it be subject
to any liability under this Agreement to any Registered Owner or Beneficial
Owner or Depositor (including liability with respect to the worth of the Trust
Property), except that the Sponsor agrees to perform its obligations
specifically set forth in this Agreement without negligence or bad faith.

          (b) The Sponsor shall not be under any obligation to prosecute any
action, suit or other proceeding in respect of any Trust Property or in respect
of the Shares on behalf of a Registered Owner, Beneficial Owner, Depositor or
other Person.

          (c) The Sponsor shall not be liable for any action or non-action by it
in reliance upon the advice of or information from legal counsel, accountants,
any Depositor, any Registered Owner or any other person believed by it in good
faith to be competent to give such advice or information.

          (d) The Sponsor shall not be liable for any acts or omissions made by
a successor sponsor whether in connection with a previous act or omission of the
Sponsor or in connection with any matter arising wholly after the resignation of
the Sponsor, provided that in connection with the issue out of which such
potential liability arises the Sponsor performed its obligations without
negligence or bad faith while it acted as sponsor.

          (e) The Sponsor shall have no obligation to comply with any direction
or instruction from any Registered Owner or Beneficial Owner or Depositor
regarding Shares except to the extent specifically provided in this Agreement.

          Section 5.3 Prevention or Delay in Performance by the Sponsor.

                                       27

          The Sponsor and its directors, employees, agents or affiliates shall
not incur any liability to any Registered Owner, Beneficial Owner or Depositor
if, by reason of any provision of any present or future law or regulation of the
United States or any other country, or of any governmental or regulatory
authority or stock exchange, or by reason of any act of God or war or terrorism
or other circumstances beyond its control, the Sponsor is prevented or forbidden
from, or would be subject to any civil or criminal penalty on account of, or is
delayed in, doing or performing any act or thing which by the terms of this
Agreement it is provided shall be done or performed and accordingly the Sponsor
does not do that thing or does that thing at a later time than would otherwise
be required. The Sponsor will not incur any liability to any Registered Owner or
Beneficial Owner or Depositor by reason of any non-performance or delay in the
performance of any act or thing which by the terms of this Agreement it is
provided may be done or performed, or by reason of any exercise of, or failure
to exercise, any discretion provided for in this Agreement.

          Section 5.4 Certain Matters Regarding Successor Sponsor.

          The covenants, provisions and agreements herein contained shall in
every case be binding upon any successor to the business of the Sponsor. The
Sponsor may transfer all or substantially all of its assets to an entity which
carries on the business of the Sponsor, if at the time of such transfer such
successor duly assumes all the obligations of the Sponsor under this Agreement,
and in such event, the Sponsor shall be relieved of all further liability under
this Agreement.

          Section 5.5 Resignation of Sponsor; Successors.

          If at any time the Sponsor desires to resign its position as Sponsor
hereunder, it may resign by delivering to the Trustee an instrument of
resignation executed by the Sponsor. Such resignation shall become effective
upon the earliest of (i) the effective date of the appointment by the Trustee of
a successor sponsor and the acceptance by the successor sponsor of that
appointment, with such compensation from the Trust as the Trustee may deem
reasonable under the circumstances, by an instrument

                                       28

of appointment and assumption executed by the Trustee and the successor sponsor;
or (ii) an agreement by the Trustee to act as sponsor hereunder succeeding to
all the rights and duties of the resigning Sponsor without appointing a
successor sponsor and without terminating this Agreement; or (iii) termination
of this Agreement in accordance with its terms and completion of distribution of
all remaining assets to Registered Owners. The Trustee shall have no obligation
to appoint a successor sponsor or to assume the duties of the Sponsor and shall
have no liability to any person because the Trust is terminated by reason of the
Sponsor's resignation.

          If the Sponsor shall fail to undertake or perform or become incapable
of undertaking or performing its duties hereunder or shall become bankrupt or
its affairs shall be taken over by public authorities, the effect of that event
shall be the same as if the Sponsor had given a notice of resignation as
provided in the preceding paragraph.

          Upon its resignation becoming effective, the resigning Sponsor shall
be discharged and shall no longer be liable in any manner hereunder except as to
acts or omissions occurring before its resignation became effective, and the
successor sponsor shall thereupon undertake and perform all duties and be
entitled to all rights and compensation as sponsor under this Agreement. The
successor sponsor shall not be under any liability hereunder for acts or
omissions occurring prior to the effective date stated in the instrument
appointing it successor sponsor. The Trustee shall notify Registered Owners of
the appointment of a successor sponsor.

          Section 5.6 Compensation of the Sponsor.

          (a) The Sponsor is entitled to receive from the Trust, as an expense
of the Trust, the Sponsor's Fee. The Sponsor's Fee shall be accrued daily but
paid monthly in arrears.

          (b) In addition to the Sponsor's Fee, the Sponsor is entitled to
receive reimbursement from the Trust for all expenses and disbursements incurred
by it under the last sentence of Section 7.1(d) or in connection with action
taken by it pursuant to

                                       29

Section 5.8., except that the Sponsor is not entitled to charge the Trust for
(i) expenses and disbursements incurred by it prior to the commencement of
trading of Shares on the Exchange, and (ii) fees of agents for performing
services the Sponsor is required to perform under this Agreement.

          (c) Within 30 days following the end of each fiscal year, the Sponsor
shall certify to the Trustee the amount of its actual reimbursable expenses
during the preceding fiscal year attributable to its acting as Sponsor and shall
reimburse the Trust any amounts received by it from the Trust that exceed the
amount so certified. The Trustee shall have no liability or responsibility for
amounts paid to the Sponsor pursuant to this Section 5.6.

          Section 5.7 Federal Securities Law Filings.

          The Sponsor shall (i) prepare and file a registration statement with
the Commission and take such action as is necessary from time to time to qualify
the Shares for offering and sale under the federal securities laws of the United
States, including the preparation and filing of amendments and supplements to
such registration statement, (ii) promptly notify the Trustee of any amendment
or supplement to the registration statement or prospectus, of any order
preventing or suspending the use of any prospectus, of any request for the
amending or supplementing of the registration statement or prospectus or if any
event or circumstance occurs which is known to the Sponsor as a result of which
the registration statement or prospectus, as then amended or supplemented, would
include an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material
fact necessary to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances
under which they were made, not misleading, (iii) provide the Trustee from time
to time with copies, including copies in electronic form, of the prospectus, as
amended and supplemented, in such quantities as the Trustee may reasonably
request and (iv) prepare and file any periodic reports or updates that may be
required under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Trustee
shall furnish to the Sponsor any information from the records of the Trust that
the Sponsor reasonably requests in writing

                                       30

that is needed to prepare any filing or submission that the Sponsor or the Trust
is required to make under the federal securities laws of the United States.

          Section 5.8 Discretionary Actions by Sponsor; Consultation.

          (a) The Sponsor may, in its discretion, undertake any action that it
considers necessary or desirable to protect the Trust or the interests of the
Registered Owners. The expenses incurred by the Sponsor in connection with
taking any action under the preceding sentence (including the fees and
disbursements of legal counsel) shall be expenses of the Trust, and the Sponsor
shall be entitled to be reimbursed for those expenses by the Trust.

          (b) The Sponsor shall notify and consult with the Trustee before
undertaking any action under Section 5.8(a) or if the Sponsor becomes aware of
any development or event that affects the administration of the Trust but is not
contemplated or provided for in this Agreement.

necessary or advisable in the reasonable judgment of the Trustee or the Sponsor.

          (d) If any Shares are listed on one or more stock exchanges in the

of the Sponsor (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld), appoint a
registrar or one or more co-registrars for registry of such Shares in accordance
with any requirements of such exchange or exchanges.

          Section 6.2 Obligations of the Trustee.

          (a) The Trustee assumes no obligation nor shall it be subject to any
liability under this Agreement to any Registered Owner or Beneficial Owner or

in this Agreement without negligence or bad faith.

          (b) The Trustee shall not be under any obligation to prosecute any
action, suit or other proceeding in respect of any Trust Property or in respect
of the Shares on behalf of a Registered Owner, Beneficial Owner, Depositor or
other Person.

any Depositor, any Registered Owner or any other person believed by it in good
faith to be competent to give such advice or information.

          (d) The Trustee shall not be liable for any acts or omissions made by
a successor trustee whether in connection with a previous act or omission of the
Trustee or in connection with any matter arising wholly after the resignation of
the Trustee, provided that in connection with the issue out of which such
potential liability arises the

                                       32

Trustee performed its obligations without negligence or bad faith while it acted
as Trustee.

          (e) The Trustee shall have no obligation to comply with any direction
or instruction from any Registered Owner or Beneficial Owner or Depositor

          The Trustee and its directors, employees, agents or affiliates shall
not incur any liability to any Registered Owner, Beneficial Owner or Depositor
if, by reason of any provision of any present or future law or regulation of the
United States or any other country, or of any governmental or regulatory
authority or stock exchange, or by reason of any act of God or war or terrorism
or other circumstances beyond its control, the Trustee is prevented or forbidden
from, or would be subject to any civil or criminal penalty on account of, or is
delayed in, doing or performing any act or thing which by the terms of this
Agreement it is provided shall be done or performed and accordingly the Trustee
does not do that thing or does that thing at a later time than would otherwise
be required. The Trustee will not incur any liability to any Registered Owner or
Beneficial Owner or Depositor by reason of any non-performance or delay in the
performance of any act or thing which by the terms of this Agreement it is
provided may be done or performed, or by reason of any exercise of, or failure
to exercise, any discretion provided for in this Agreement.

Successor Trustee.

          (a) Resignation. The Trustee may at any time resign as Trustee
hereunder by notice of its election so to do, delivered to the Sponsor, and such

                                       33

          (b) Removal by the Sponsor. In case at any time the Trustee shall be
adjudged bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property
shall be appointed, or a trustee or liquidator or any public officer shall take
charge or control of such Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purposes
of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, then in any such case, the
Sponsor shall, subject to the requirements of Section 6.4(e), remove the Trustee

          (c) Removal by Registered Owners. Registered Owners of at least

be a Qualified Bank or is in material breach of its obligations under this
Agreement and the Trustee fails to cure such breach within 30 days after receipt
by the Trustee of notice from the Sponsor or Registered Owners acting on behalf
of at least 25% of the outstanding Shares specifying such default and requiring
the Trustee to cure such default, the Sponsor, acting on behalf of the
Registered Owners, may remove the Trustee by notice delivered to the Trustee,
and such removal shall take effect upon the appointment of a successor trustee
and its acceptance of such appointment as hereinafter provided.

          (e) Appointing Successor Trustees. If the Trustee acting hereunder
resigns or is removed, the Sponsor, acting on behalf of the Registered Owners,
shall use its reasonable efforts to appoint a successor trustee, which shall be
a Qualified Bank. Every successor trustee shall execute and deliver to its
predecessor and to the Sponsor, acting on behalf of the Registered Owners, an
instrument in writing accepting its appointment hereunder, and thereupon such
successor trustee, without any further act or deed, shall become fully vested
with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor; but such
predecessor, nevertheless, upon payment of all sums due it and on

                                       34

the written request of the Sponsor, acting on behalf of the Registered Owners,
shall execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor all
rights and powers of such predecessor hereunder, shall duly assign, transfer and
deliver all right, title and interest in the Trust Property to such successor,
and shall deliver to such successor a list of the Registered Owners of all
outstanding Shares. The Sponsor or any such successor trustee shall promptly

Trustee may be merged, consolidated or converted in a transaction in which the
Trustee is not the surviving corporation shall be the successor of the Trustee
without the execution or filing of any document or any further act.

          Section 6.5 The Depository.

          The Depository will be subject at all times and in all respects to the

                                       35

and other data compiled during the term of this Agreement at the times permitted

                                    ARTICLE 7

                                 INDEMNIFICATION

          Section 7.1 Indemnification of the Sponsor and Trustee.

          (a) The Sponsor shall indemnify the Trustee, its directors, employees
and agents (the "Trustee Indemnified Persons") against, and hold each of them
harmless from, any loss, liability, cost, expense or judgment (including, but
not limited to, the reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) (collectively
"Indemnified Amounts") that is incurred by any of them and that arises out of or
is related to (i) any offer or sale by the Trust of Baskets of Shares under this
Agreement, (ii) acts performed or omitted pursuant to the provisions of this
Agreement, as the same may be amended, modified or supplemented from time to
time, by (A) a Trustee Indemnified Person or (B) the Sponsor or (iii) any
filings with or submissions to the Commission in connection with or with respect
to the Shares (which, by way of illustration and not by way of limitation,
include any registration statement and any amendments or supplements thereto
filed with the Commission or any periodic reports or updates that may be filed
under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or any failure to make
any filings with or

                                       37

submissions to the Commission which are required to be made in connection with
or with respect to the Shares), except that the Sponsor shall not have any
obligations under this Section 7.1(a) to pay Indemnified Amounts incurred as a
result of and attributable to (x) the negligence or bad faith of, or material
breach of the terms of this Agreement by, the Trustee, (y) written information
furnished in writing by the Trustee to the Sponsor expressly for use in the
registration statement, or any amendment thereto, filed with the Commission
relating to the Shares that is not materially altered by the Sponsor or (z) any
misrepresentations or omissions made by a Depositor (other than Sponsor) in
connection with such Depositor's offer and sale of Shares.

          (b) The Trustee shall indemnify the Sponsor, its members, officers,
employees and agents against, and hold each of them harmless from, any
Indemnified Amounts (i) caused by the negligence or bad faith of the Trustee or
(ii) arising out of any information furnished in writing to the Sponsor by the
Trustee expressly for use in the registration statement, or any amendment
thereto, filed with the Commission relating to the Shares that is not materially
altered by the Sponsor.

          (c) If the indemnification provided for in Section 7.1(a) or Section
7.1(b) is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless the indemnified party
under subsection (a) or (b) above, then the indemnifying party shall contribute
to the Indemnified Amounts referred to in subsection (a) or (b) above (i) in
such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by
the Sponsor on the one hand and the Trustee on the other hand from the fees each
receive attributable to the Shares which are the subject of the action or (ii)
if the allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable
law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the relative
benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative fault of the
Sponsor on the one hand and the Trustee on the other hand in connection with the
action, statement or omission which resulted in such Indemnified Amount as well
as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault shall be
determined by reference to, among other things, whether any untrue or alleged
untrue statement of a material fact or the omission

                                       38

or alleged omission to state a material fact from which the action arises
relates to information supplied by the Sponsor or the Trustee and the parties'
relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or
prevent such untrue statement or omission or the act or omission from which the
action arises. The amount of Indemnified Amounts referred to in the first
sentence of this subsection (c) shall be deemed to include any legal or other
expenses reasonably incurred by such indemnified party in connection with
investigating or defending any action or claim which is the subject of this
subsection (c).

          (d) The Sponsor and its shareholders, directors, officers, employees,
affiliates (as such term is defined under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended) and subsidiaries (each, a "Sponsor Indemnified Party") shall be
indemnified from the Trust and held harmless against any loss, liability or
expense incurred without (i) negligence, bad faith, willful misconduct or
willful malfeasance on the part of such Sponsor Indemnified Party arising out of
or in connection with the performance of its obligations under this Agreement or
any actions taken in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or (ii)
reckless disregard on the part of such Sponsor Indemnified Party of its
obligations and duties under this Agreement. Such indemnity shall include
payment from the Trust of the costs and expenses incurred by such Sponsor
Indemnified party in defending itself against any claim or liability in its
capacity as Sponsor. Any amounts payable to a Sponsor Indemnified Party under
this Section 7.1(d) may be payable in advance or shall be secured by a lien on
the Trust. The Sponsor may, in its discretion, undertake any action which it may
deem necessary or desirable in respect of this Agreement and the rights and
duties of the parties hereto and the interests of the Registered Owners and, in
such event, the legal expenses and costs of any such actions shall be expenses
and costs of the Trust and the Sponsor shall be entitled to be reimbursed
therefor by the Trust.

          (e) If an action, proceeding (including, but not limited to, any
governmental investigation), claim or dispute (each, a "Proceeding") in respect
of which

                                       39

indemnity may be sought by either party is brought or asserted against the other
party, the party seeking indemnification (the "Indemnitee") shall promptly (and
in no event more than seven (7) days after receipt of notice of such Proceeding)
notify the party obligated to provide such indemnification (the "Indemnitor") of
such Proceeding. The failure of the Indemnitee to so notify the Indemnitor shall
not impair the Indemnitee's ability to seek indemnification from the Indemnitor
(but only for costs, expenses and liabilities incurred after such notice) unless
such failure adversely affects the Indemnitor's ability to adequately oppose or
defend such Proceeding. Upon receipt of such notice from the Indemnitee, the
Indemnitor shall be entitled to participate in such Proceeding and, to the
extent that it shall so desire and provided no conflict of interest exists as
specified in clause (i) below and there are no other defenses available to
Indemnitee as specified in clause (iii) below, to assume the defense thereof
with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitee (in which case all
attorney's fees and expenses shall be borne by the Indemnitor and the Indemnitor
shall in good faith defend the Indemnitee). The Indemnitee shall have the right
to employ separate counsel in any such Proceeding and to participate in the
defense thereof, but, in such case, no fees and expenses of such counsel shall
be borne by the Indemnitor unless such fees and expenses are otherwise required
to be indemnified under Section 7.1(a), Section 7.1(b) or Section 7.1(d), as
applicable, and (i) there is such a conflict of interest between the Indemnitor
and the Indemnitee as would preclude, in compliance with the ethical rules in
effect in the jurisdiction in which the Proceeding was brought, one lawyer from
representing both parties simultaneously, (ii) the Indemnitor fails, within the
earlier of (x) twenty (20) days following receipt of notice of the Proceeding
from the Indemnitee or (y) seven (7) days prior to the date the first response
or appearance is required to be made in such Proceeding, to assume the defense
of such Proceeding with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnitee or
(iii) there are legal defenses available to Indemnitee that are different from
or are in addition to those available to the Indemnitor. No compromise or
settlement of such Proceeding may be effected by either party without the other
party's consent unless (m) there is no finding or admission of any violation of
law and no effect on any other claims that may be made

                                       40

against such other party and (n) the sole relief provided is monetary damages
that are paid in full by the party seeking the settlement. Neither party shall
have any liability with respect to any compromise or settlement effected without
its consent, which shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Indemnitor shall have
no obligation to indemnify and hold harmless the Indemnitee from any loss,
expense or liability incurred by the Indemnitee as a result of a default
judgment entered against the Indemnitee unless such judgment was entered after
the Indemnitor agreed, in writing, to assume the defense of such Proceeding.

                                       41

                                   ARTICLE 8

                            AMENDMENT AND TERMINATION

          Section 8.1 Amendment.

          The Trustee and the Sponsor may amend any provisions of this Agreement
(but only the procedural or logistical provisions contained in Sections 2.6,
2.7, 2.10, 4.2-4.7, this Section 8.1 and Section 8.2 and not the core economic
rights in such sections) without the consent of any Registered Owner. Any
amendment that imposes or increases any fees or charges (other than taxes and
other governmental charges, registration fees or other such expenses), or that
otherwise prejudices any substantial existing right of the Registered Owners
will not become effective as to outstanding Shares until 30 days after notice of
such amendment is given to the Registered Owners. Every Registered Owner and
Beneficial Owner, at the time any amendment so becomes effective, shall be
deemed, by continuing to hold any Shares or an interest therein, to consent and
agree to such amendment and to be bound by this Agreement as amended thereby. In
no event shall any amendment impair the right of the Registered Owner of Shares
to Surrender Baskets of Shares and receive therefor the amount of Trust Property
represented thereby, except in order to comply with mandatory provisions of
applicable law.

          Section 8.2 Termination.

          (a) The Trustee shall set a date on which this Agreement will
terminate and mail notice of that termination to the Registered Owners at least
30 days prior to the date set for termination if either of the following occurs:

               (i) the Sponsor has given notice of resignation or is unable to
perform its duties or becomes bankrupt or insolvent and the Trustee will not
appoint a successor sponsor or agree to act as Sponsor; or

               (ii) Registered Owners holding at least 75% of the outstanding
Shares notify the Trustee that they elect to terminate the Trust.

                                       42

          (b) The Trustee shall set a date on which this Agreement will
terminate and mail notice of that termination to the Registered Owners at least
30 days prior to the date set for termination if any of the following occurs and

          (d) If not terminated sooner, this Agreement shall terminate forty
years from the date of this Agreement, and the Trustee shall mail a notice of
that termination to the Registered Owners and the Sponsor at least 30 days
before the termination date.

          (e) On and after the date of termination of this Agreement, the

which shall survive termination of this Agreement. Section 5.6 and this Section
8.1(e) shall also survive termination of this Agreement.

                          FORM OF PARTICIPANT AGREEMENT

This Participant Agreement (this "Agreement"), dated as of ________, is entered
into by and between __________ (with respect to this Agreement, the "Authorized
Participant", and with respect to the Trust Agreement referred to below, an
"Authorized Participant"), The Bank of New York, not in its individual capacity
but solely as trustee (the "Trustee") of the Euro Currency Trust (the "Trust"),
and Currency Group LLC, as sponsor (the "Sponsor") of the Trust.

                                     SUMMARY

The Trustee serves as the trustee of the Trust pursuant to the Depositary Trust
Agreement dated as of __________, 2005, among the Sponsor, the Trustee, the
registered owners and beneficial owners from time to time of Euro Currency
Shares issued thereunder and all depositors (the "Trust Agreement"). As provided
in the Trust Agreement and described in the Prospectus (defined below), units of
fractional undivided beneficial interests in and ownership of the Trust (the
"Shares") may be created or redeemed by the Trustee for an Authorized
Participant in aggregations of fifty thousand (50,000) Shares (each aggregation,
a "Basket"). Baskets are offered only pursuant to the registration statement of
the Trust on Form S-1, as amended (Registration No: 333-125581), as declared
effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") and as the same may
be amended from time to time thereafter (collectively, the "Registration
Statement") together with the prospectus of the Trust (the "Prospectus")
included therein. Under the Trust Agreement, the Trustee is authorized to issue
Baskets to, and redeem Baskets from, Authorized Participants under the Trust
Agreement, only through the facilities of The Depository Trust Company ("DTC")
or a successor depository, and only in exchange for an amount of euro that is
transferred between such Authorized Participant and the Trust. Under the Trust
Agreement, the Trustee issues Baskets in exchange for euro which are transferred
by an Authorized Participant to the London Branch of JP Morgan Chase Bank, N.A.
(the "Depository"), and when the Trustee redeems Baskets tendered for redemption
by an Authorized Participant in exchange for euro, the euro held in the Trust
Account are transferred to the Authorized Participant by the Depository. The
foregoing euro transfers are also governed by the Deposit Account Agreement the
Trust has entered into with the Depository (the "Deposit Account Agreement").
This Agreement sets forth the specific procedures by which an Authorized
Participant may create or redeem Baskets.

Because new Shares can be created and issued on an ongoing basis, at any point
during the life 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 that 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 Prospectus and consult with its own
counsel in connection with entering into this Agreement and placing an Order
(defined below).

Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings
assigned to such terms in the Trust Agreement. To the extent there is a conflict
between any provision of this Agreement and the provisions of the Trust
Agreement, the provisions of the Trust Agreement shall control.

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 Trustee to create or redeem
one or more Baskets, Authorized Participants must follow the procedures for
creation and redemption referred to in Section 3 of this Agreement and the
procedures described in Attachment A hereto (the "Procedures"), as each may be
amended, modified or supplemented from time to time.

SECTION 2. STATUS OF AUTHORIZED PARTICIPANT. The Authorized Participant
represents and warrants and covenants the following:

           (a) 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 Participant shall give
           immediate notice to the Trustee of such event, and this Agreement
           shall terminate immediately as of the date the Authorized Participant
           ceased to be a DTC Participant.

           (b) Unless Section 2(c) 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 National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. (the
           "NASD"), or (ii) is exempt from being, or otherwise is not required
           to be, licensed as a broker-dealer or a member of the NASD, 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.
           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 Constitution,
           By-Laws and Conduct Rules of the NASD (if it is a NASD member), and
           will not offer or sell Shares in any state or jurisdiction where they
           may not lawfully be offered and/or sold.

           (c) If the Authorized Participant is offering or selling Shares 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 the NASD as set forth in Section 2(b) above,
           the Authorized Participant will (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.

           (d) The Authorized Participant is in compliance with the money
           laundering and related provisions of the Uniting and Strengthening
           America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and
           Obstruct Terrorism (USA PATRIOT ACT) Act of 2001, and the regulations
           promulgated thereunder, if the Authorized Participant is subject to
           the requirements of the USA PATRIOT ACT.

            (e) The Authorized Participant has the capability to send and
           receive communications via authenticated telecommunication facility
           to and from the Trustee and the Depository. The Authorized
           Participant shall confirm such capability to the satisfaction of the
           Trustee and the Depository by the end of the Business Day before
           placing its first order with the Trustee (whether such order is to
           create or to redeem Baskets). If required by the Depository with
           respect to authorized telecommunications by telephonic facsimile, the
           Authorized Participant shall enter into a separate agreement with the
           Depository, as the case may be, indemnifying such party with respect
           to its communications by telephonic facsimile, substantially in the
           form attached as Exhibit D, as the same may be amended from time to
           time.

SECTION 3. ORDERS.

            (a) All orders to create or redeem Baskets shall be made in
            accordance with the terms of the Trust Agreement, the Deposit
            Account Agreement, this Agreement and the Procedures. Each party
            will comply with such foregoing terms and procedures to the extent
            applicable to it. The Authorized Participant hereby consents to the
            use of recorded telephone lines whether or not such use is reflected
            in the Procedures. The Trustee and Sponsor may issue additional or
            other procedures from time to time relating to the manner of
            creating or redeeming Baskets which are not related to the
            Procedures, and the Authorized Participant will comply with such
            procedures.

                                       2

            (b) The Authorized Participant acknowledges and agrees that each
            order to create a Basket (a "Purchase Order") and each order to
            redeem a Basket (a "Redemption Order", and each Purchase Order and
            Redemption Order, an "Order") may not be revoked by the Authorized
            Participant upon its delivery to the Trustee. A form of Purchase
            Order is attached hereto as Exhibit B and a form of Redemption Order
            is attached hereto as Exhibit C.

            (c) The delivery of the Shares against deposits of euro may be
            suspended generally, or refused with respect to particular requested
            deliveries, during any period when the transfer books of the Trustee
            are closed or if any such action is deemed necessary or advisable by
            the Trustee or the Sponsor for any reason at any time or from time
            to time. Except as otherwise provided in the Trust Agreement, the
            surrender of Shares for purposes of withdrawing euro may not be
            suspended.

SECTION 4. EURO TRANSFERS. Any euro to be transferred in connection with any
Order shall be transferred between the Participant's account and the Deposit
Account in accordance with the Procedures. The Authorized Participant shall be
responsible for all costs and expenses relating to or connected with any
transfer of euro between its account and the Deposit Account.

SECTION 5. FEES. In connection with each Order by an Authorized Participant to
create or redeem one or more Baskets, the Trustee shall charge, and the
Authorized Participant shall pay to the Trustee, the transaction fee prescribed
in the Trust Agreement applicable to such creation or redemption. The initial
transaction fee shall be five hundred dollars ($500). The transaction fee may be
waived or otherwise adjusted from time to time as set forth in the Prospectus.

SECTION 6. AUTHORIZED PERSONS. Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement
and from time to time thereafter, the Authorized Participant shall deliver to
the Trustee notarized and duly certified as appropriate by its secretary or
other duly authorized official, a certificate 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 Trustee 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 Trustee receives a superseding certificate
bearing a subsequent date. Upon the termination or revocation of authority of
any Authorized Person by the Authorized Participant, the Authorized Participant
shall give immediate written notice of such fact to the Trustee and such notice
shall be effective upon receipt by the Trustee. The Trustee shall issue 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 Trustee.

SECTION 7. REDEMPTION. The Authorized Participant represents and warrants that
it will not obtain an Order Number (as described in the Procedures) from the
Trustee for the purpose of redeeming a Basket unless it first ascertains that
(i) it owns outright or has full legal authority and legal and beneficial right
to tender for redemption the Baskets to be redeemed and to receive the entire
proceeds of the redemption, and (ii) such Baskets 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 would preclude the
delivery of such Baskets to the Trustee on the third Business Day following the
Redemption Order Date.

SECTION 8. ROLE OF AUTHORIZED PARTICIPANT.

         (a) The Authorized Participant acknowledges that, for all purposes of
         this Agreement and the Trust Agreement, the Authorized Participant is
         and shall be deemed to be an independent

                                       3

         contractor and has and shall have no authority to act as agent for the
         Trust, the Sponsor, the Trustee or the Depository, in any matter or in
         any respect.

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

         (c) The Authorized Participant will maintain records of all sales of
         Shares made by or through it and will furnish copies of such records to
         the Sponsor upon the reasonable request of the Sponsor.

SECTION 9. INDEMNIFICATION.

         (a) The Authorized Participant hereby indemnifies and holds harmless
         the Trustee, the Depository, the Trust, the Sponsor, their respective
         direct or indirect affiliates (as defined below) and their respective
         directors, officers, employees and agents (each, an "AP Indemnified
         Party") from and against any losses, liabilities, damages, costs and
         expenses (including attorney's fees and the reasonable cost of
         investigation) incurred by such AP Indemnified Party as a result of or
         in connection with: (i) any breach by the Authorized Participant of any
         provisions of this Agreement, 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 the rules and regulations of any governmental
         entity or any self-regulatory organization; (iv) any actions of such AP
         Indemnified Party in reliance upon any instructions issued in
         accordance with the Procedures believed by the AP Indemnified Party to
         be genuine and to have been given by the Authorized Participant; or (v)
         (A) any representation by the Authorized Participant, its employees or
         its agents or other representatives about the Shares, any AP
         Indemnified Party or the Trust that is not consistent with the Trust's
         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 13(b) or any alleged omission to state therein a material
         fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements
         therein not misleading to the extent that such statement or omission
         relates to the Shares, any AP Indemnified Party or the Trust, 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.

         (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 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; or (iv) any untrue statement or alleged
         untrue statement of a material fact contained in the registration
         statement of the Trust as originally filed with the SEC or in any
         amendment thereof, or in any prospectus, or in any amendment thereof or
         supplement thereto, or arising out of or based

                                       4

         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 Registration
         Statement or the 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.

         (c) This Section 9 shall not apply to the extent any such losses,
         liabilities, damages, costs and expenses are incurred as a result or in
         connection with any gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct
         on the part of the AP Indemnified Party or the Sponsor Indemnified
         Party, as the case may be. The term "affiliate" in this Section 9 shall
         include, with respect to any person, entity or organization, any other
         person, entity or organization which directly, or indirectly through
         one or more intermediaries, controls, is controlled by or is under
         common control with such person, entity or organization.

         (d) If the indemnification provided for in this Section 9 is
         unavailable to an indemnified party under Sections 9(a) or 9(b) or
         insufficient to hold an indemnified party harmless in respect of any
         losses, liabilities, damages, costs and expenses referred to therein,
         then each applicable indemnifying party shall contribute to the amount
         paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such losses,
         liabilities, damages, costs and expenses (i) in such proportion as is
         appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Sponsor
         and the Trust, on the one hand, and by the Authorized Participant, on
         the other hand, from the services provided hereunder or (ii) if the
         allocation provided by clause (i) above is not permitted by applicable
         law, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect not only the
         relative benefits referred to in clause (i) above but also the relative
         fault of the Sponsor and the Trust, on the one hand, and of the
         Authorized Participant, on the other hand, in connection with, to the
         extent applicable, the statements or omissions which resulted in such
         losses, liabilities, damages, costs and expenses, as well as any other
         relevant equitable considerations. The relative benefits received by
         the Sponsor and the Trust, on the one hand, and the Authorized
         Participant, on the other hand, shall be deemed to be in the same
         respective proportions as the amount of euro transferred to the Trust
         under this Agreement on the one hand (expressed in dollars) bears to
         the amount of economic benefit received by the Authorized Participant
         in connection with this Agreement on the other hand. To the extent
         applicable, the relative fault of the Sponsor on the one hand and of
         the Authorized Participant on the other shall be determined by
         reference to, among other things, whether the untrue statement or
         alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged
         omission relates to information supplied by the Sponsor or by the
         Authorized Participant and the parties' relative intent, knowledge,
         access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such
         statement or omission. The amount paid or payable by a party as a
         result of the losses, liabilities, damages, costs and expenses referred
         to in this Section 9(d) shall be deemed to include any legal or other
         fees or expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with
         investigating, preparing to defend or defending any action, suit or
         proceeding (each a "Proceeding") related to such losses, liabilities,
         damages, costs and expenses.

         (e) The Sponsor and the Authorized Participant agree that it would not
         be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 9 were
         determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation
         that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to
         in Section 9(d) above. The Authorized Participant shall not be required
         to contribute any amount in excess of the amount by which the total
         price at which the Shares created by the Authorized Participant and
         distributed to the public exceeds the amount of any damage which the
         Authorized Participant has otherwise been required to pay by reason of
         such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or
         alleged omission. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation
         (within the meaning of Section 10(f) of the 1933 Act) shall be entitled
         to contribution from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent
         misrepresentation.

         (f) The indemnity and contribution agreements contained in this Section
         9 shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation
         made by or on behalf of the Authorized Participant, its partners,
         stockholders, members, directors, officers, employees and or any person
         (including each partner, stockholder, member, director, officer or
         employee of such person) who

                                       5

         controls the Authorized Participant within the meaning of Section 15
         of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act, or by or on behalf of
         the Sponsor, its partners, stockholders, members, directors, officers,
         employees or any person who controls the Sponsor within the meaning of
         Section 15 of the 1933 Act or Section 20 of the 1934 Act, and shall
         survive any termination of this Agreement. The Sponsor and the
         Authorized Participant agree promptly to notify each other of the
         commencement of any Proceeding 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 Registration Statement or the Prospectus.

SECTION 10. LIABILITY.

         (a) Limitation of Liability. None of the Sponsor, the Trustee, the
         Authorized Participant, and the Depository shall be liable to each
         other or to any other person, including any party claiming by, through
         or on behalf of the Authorized Participant, for any losses,
         liabilities, damages, costs or expenses arising out of any mistake or
         error in data or other information provided to any of them by each
         other or any other person 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 Basket 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
         Trustee, 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.

SECTION 11. ACKNOWLEDGMENT. The Authorized Participant acknowledges receipt of a
(i) copy of the Trust Agreement and (ii) the current Prospectus of the Trust,
and represents that it has reviewed and understands such documents.

SECTION 12. 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); (ii) upon notice to the
Authorized Participant by the Trustee in the event of a breach by the Authorized
Participant of this Agreement or the procedures described or incorporated
herein; (iii) immediately in the circumstances described in Section 18(j); or
(iv) at such time as the Trust is terminated pursuant to the Trust Agreement.

SECTION 13. MARKETING MATERIALS; REPRESENTATIONS REGARDING SHARES;
IDENTIFICATION IN REGISTRATION STATEMENT.

         (a) The Authorized Participant represents, warrants and covenants that
         (i), without the written consent of the Sponsor, the Authorized
         Participant will not make, or permit any of its representatives to
         make, any representations concerning the Shares or any AP Indemnified
         Party other than representations contained (A) in the then-current
         Prospectus of the Trust, (B) in printed information approved by the
         Sponsor as information supplemental to such Prospectus or (C) in 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, any AP
         Indemnified Person or the Trust that are not consistent with the
         Trust's then current Prospectus. Copies of the 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, the Authorized Participant may
         without the written approval of the Sponsor prepare and circulate in
         the regular course of its business research reports, marketing material
         and sales literature that includes information, opinions or
         recommendations relating to the

                                       6

         Shares (i) for public dissemination, provided that such research
         reports, marketing material or sales literature compare the relative
         merits and benefits of Shares with other products; and (ii) for
         internal use by the Authorized Participant. The Authorized Participant
         will file all such research reports, marketing material and sales
         literature related to the Shares with the NASD to the extent required
         by the NASD Conduct Rules.

         (c) The Authorized Participant and its affiliates may prepare and
         circulate in the regular course of their businesses, without having to
         refer to the Shares or the Trust's then-current Prospectus, data and
         information relating to the price of euro.

         (d) The Authorized Participant hereby agrees that for the term of this
         Agreement the Sponsor may deliver the then-current Prospectus, and any
         supplements or amendments thereto or recirculation thereof, to the
         Authorized Participant in Portable Document Format ("PDF") via
         electronic mail 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 and, whether or not such
         agreement is in effect, the Authorized Participant may, at any time,
         request reasonable quantities of the Prospectus, and any supplements or
         amendments thereto or recirculation thereof, in paper form from the
         Sponsor. 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 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.

         (e) For as long as this Agreement is effective, the Authorized
         Participant agrees to be identified as an authorized participant of the
         Trust (i) in the section of the Prospectus included within the
         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 Sponsor qualifies and elects to file on Form
         S-3, the Sponsor will remove such identification from the Prospectus in
         the amendment of the Registration Statement next occurring after the
         date of the termination of this Agreement and, during the period after
         when the Sponsor qualifies and 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.

SECTION 14. TITLE TO EURO. The Authorized Participant represents and warrants
that upon delivery of a Creation Basket Deposit to the Trustee in accordance
with the terms of the Trust Agreement and this Agreement, the Trust will acquire
good and unencumbered title to the euro which are the subject of such Creation
Basket Deposit, free and clear of all pledges, security interests, liens,
charges, taxes, assessments, encumbrances, equities, claims, options or
limitations of any kind or nature, fixed or contingent, and not subject to any
adverse claims, including any restriction upon the sale or transfer of all or
any part of such euro which is imposed by any agreement or arrangement entered
into by the Authorized Participant or any party for which it is acting in
connection with a Purchase Order.

SECTION 15. THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARIES. Each AP Indemnified Party, to the extent
it is not a party to this Agreement, is a third-party beneficiary of this
Agreement (each, a "Third Party Beneficiary") and may proceed directly against
the Authorized Participant (including by bringing proceedings against the
Authorized Participant in its own name) to enforce any obligation of the
Authorized Participant under this Agreement which directly or indirectly
benefits such Third Party Beneficiary.

SECTION 16. 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 act of God or war or
terrorism, 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

                                       7

organization for any reason, to perform its obligations, or any cause beyond its
reasonable control, including, without limitation, any breakdown, malfunction or
failure of transmission in connection with or other unavailability of any wire,
communication or computer facilities, any transport, port or airport disruption,
or any industrial action.

SECTION 17. AMBIGUOUS INSTRUCTIONS. If a Purchase Order Form or a Redemption
Order Form otherwise in good 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 Trustee will attempt 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 Trustee. If the Trustee 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 Trustee
will attempt to contact one of the Authorized Persons of the Authorized
Participant to request retransmission of the Order.

SECTION 18. 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 Trustee and the Sponsor, without consent of any
         Authorized Participant from time to time by the following procedure.
         After the amendment, modification or supplement has been agreed to, the
         Trustee will mail a copy of the proposed amendment, modification or
         supplement to the Authorized Participant. 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 ten (10) 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 Participant Agreement
         (other than this Agreement), the Trustee will promptly mail a copy of
         such amendment, modification or supplement to the Authorized
         Participant.

         (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
         mailed, 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
         Trustee. 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

         (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, except that any entity into
         which a party hereto may be merged or converted or with which it may be

                                       8

         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. 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.

         (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 convenient 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 of the
         agreement of the parties and shall not in any way affect the meaning or
         interpretation of this Agreement.

         (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 shall not be
         deemed by this provision to be a party to the Trust Agreement.

         (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 and this Agreement will be construed
         as if such invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provision had never been
         contained herein, unless the Sponsor determines in its discretion,
         after consulting with the Trustee, that the provision of this Agreement
         that was held invalid, illegal or unenforceable does affect the
         validity, legality or enforceability of one or more other provisions of
         this Agreement, and that this Agreement should not be continued without
         the provision that was held invalid, illegal or unenforceable, and in
         that case, upon the Sponsor's notification of the Trustee of such a
         determination, this Agreement shall immediately terminate and the
         Trustee will so notify the Authorized Participant immediately.

         (k) No Strict Construction. The language used in this Agreement will be
         deemed to be the language chosen by the parties to express their mutual
         intent, and no rule of strict construction will be applied against any
         party.

                                       9

         (l) Survival. Sections 9 (Indemnification) and 15 (Third Party
         Beneficiaries) hereof shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

         (m) Other Usages. The following usages shall apply in interpreting this
         Agreement: (i) references to a governmental or quasigovernmental
         agency, authority or instrumentality shall also refer to a regulatory
         body that succeeds to the functions of such agency, authority or
         instrumentality; and (ii) "including" means "including, but not limited
         to."

                                                    * * * * * * *

                              PARTICIPANT AGREEMENT

CREATION AND REDEMPTION OF EURO CURRENCY SHARES AND RELATED EURO TRANSACTIONS

Scope of Procedures and Overview

These procedures (the "Procedures") describe the processes by which one or more
Baskets of Euro Currency Trust shares (the "Shares") issuable by The Bank of New
York, as trustee (the "Trustee") of the Euro Currency Trust (the "Trust"), may
be purchased or, once Shares have been issued, redeemed by an Authorized
Participant. Shares may be created or redeemed only in blocks of 50,000 Shares
(each such block, a "Basket"). Because the issuance and redemption of Baskets
also involve the transfer of euro between the Authorized Participant and the
Trust, certain processes relating to the underlying euro transfers also are
described.

Under these Procedures, Baskets may be issued only with respect to euro
transferred to and held in the Trust's accounts maintained in London, England by
JP Morgan Chase, N.A., London Branch, as depository (the "Depository").
Capitalized terms used in these Procedures without further definition have the
meanings assigned to them in the Depositary Trust Agreement, dated as of
____________ 2005, between Currency Group LLC (the "Sponsor"), the Trustee, the
registered owners and beneficial owners from time to time of Shares issued
thereunder and all depositors (the "Trust Agreement"), or the Participant
Agreement entered into by each Authorized Participant with the Sponsor and the
Trustee.

For purposes of these Procedures, a "Business Day" is defined as any day other
than (i) a Saturday or Sunday or (ii) a day on which the New York Stock Exchange
(the "NYSE") is not open for regular trading at noon New York City time.

Baskets are issued pursuant to the Prospectus, which will be delivered by the
Sponsor to each Authorized Participant prior to its execution of the Participant
Agreement, and are issued and redeemed in accordance with the Trust Agreement
and the Participant Agreement. Baskets may be issued and redeemed on any
Business Day by the Trustee in exchange for euro, which the Trustee receives
from Authorized Participants or transfers to Authorized Participants, in each
case on behalf of the Trust. Authorized Participants will be required to pay a
nonrefundable per order transaction fee of $500 to the Trustee (the "Transaction
Fee").

Authorized Participants and the Trust Transfer Euro and Baskets of Shares.

Upon acceptance of the Participant Agreement by the Sponsor and the Trustee, the
Trustee will assign a personal identification number (a "PIN number") to each
Authorized Person authorized to act for the Authorized Participant. This will
allow the Authorized Participant through its Authorized Person(s) to place
Purchase Order(s) or Redemption Order(s) (together, "Orders") for Baskets.

Important Notes:

        o       Any Purchase Order is subject to rejection by the Trustee for
                the reasons set forth in the Trust Agreement.

        o       All Orders are subject to the provisions of the Participant
                Agreement relating to unclear or ambiguous instructions.

                                CREATION PROCESS
                                    OVERVIEW

         The "Creation Process" portion of these Procedures describes the
process by which an order to purchase one or more Baskets of Shares placed by an
Authorized Participant with the Trustee by 4:00 p.m. New York City ("NYC") time
on the Business Day that is the Order Date under the Trust Agreement ("CREATION
T"), results in the following taking place by 9:30 a.m. New York City time
(usually 3:30 p.m. Central European Time ("CET")) on CREATION T+3:

         transfer to the Trust of euros in the amount corresponding to the
                  Shares to be issued, and

         transfer to the Authorized Participant's account at The Depository
                  Trust Company ("DTC") of Shares corresponding to the euros the
                  Participant has transferred to the Trust.

         Important Notes:

         Any Purchase Order is subject to rejection by the Trustee for the
                  reasons set forth in the Trust Agreement.

         All Orders are subject to the provisions of the Participant Agreement
                  relating to unclear or ambiguous instructions.

         Incoming telephone calls are queued and will be handled in the sequence
                  received. Calls placed before the Order Cut-off Time will be
                  processed even if the call is taken after that time.
                  Accordingly, do not hang up and redial. Purchase Orders that
                  are placed later than the Order Cut-off Time will be rejected.

C1   CREATION T (PURCHASE ORDER TRADE DATE)

     C1.1     By the Order Cut-off Time (4:00 p.m. NYC time), the Authorized
Participant submits to the Trustee the Authorized Participant's order to create
one or more Baskets of Shares in accordance with the following process (a
"Purchase Order").

     C1.1.1   By the Order Cut-off Time, an Authorized Person of the
Authorized Participant calls the Trustee at 718-315-4811 notifying the Trustee
that the Authorized Participant wishes to place a Purchase Order for the Trustee
to create an identified number of Baskets of Shares and requesting that the
Trustee provide an order number. The Authorized Person provides a PIN number as
identification to the Trustee.

     C1.1.2   The Trustee will process Purchase Orders initiated by the
Authorized Person's phone call placed before the Order Cut-off Time even though
the remainder of the order process is not completed until after the Order
Cut-off Time.

     C1.1.3   Purchase Orders initiated after the Order Cut-off Time will be
rejected.

     C1.1.4   During the phone call from the Authorized Person of the
Authorized Participant to initiate a Purchase Order, the Trustee will give an
order number for the Authorized Participant's Purchase Order.

     C1.1.5   Within 15 minutes after receiving the Trustee's phone call
giving the order number, the Authorized Participant faxes the Purchase Order to
the Trustee using the Purchase Order Form included as part of the Participant
Agreement.

                                      A-2

     C1.1.6   The Purchase Order Form provides, among other things, for the
number of Baskets that the Authorized Participant is ordering and the condition
that the Purchase Order is subject to the Trustee's receipt of the Transaction
Fee by (DTC SPO CHARGE) prior to delivery of the Baskets on CREATION T+3.

     C1.1.7   If the Trustee has not received the Purchase Order Form from the
Authorized Participant within 15 minutes after the Authorized Person placed the
phone call to the Trustee, the Trustee places a phone call to the Authorized
Participant to enquire about the status of the order. If the Authorized
Participant does not fax the Purchase Order Form to the Trustee within 15
minutes after the Trustee's phone call, the Authorized Participant's order is
cancelled, but the Authorized Participant will remain liable to the Trustee for
the Transaction Fee.

     C1.2    If the Trustee has received the Authorized Participant's Purchase
Order Form on time in accordance with the preceding timing rules, then by 5:00
p.m. NYC time on CREATION T, the Trustee will return to the Participant a copy
of the Purchase Order Form submitted, marking it "Affirmed subject to receipt of
the Transaction Fee prior to delivery of Baskets on CREATION T+3" and
indicating, on a preliminary basis subject to confirmation, the number of euros
the Participant must transfer in exchange for the Basket(s).

     C1.3    The Participant ensures that by 3:30 p.m. CET (usually 9:30 a.m.
NYC time) on CREATION T+3 there sufficient euros are wire transferred to the
Depository.

     C1.4    NOTES FOR AUTHORIZED PARTICIPANT (CREATION T)

     C1.4.1  The Authorized Participant must be a participating member of DTC.

     C1.4.2  The Authorized Participant must be able to transfer euros via
(RTGSplus, EBA EURO1or TARGET). SWIFT BIC - CHASDEFX

     C1.4.3  The Authorized Participant must have signed and delivered the
Participant Agreement with the Trustee. The Trustee will accept an Authorized
Participant based on the representations made by the Authorized Participant in
the Participant Agreement. The Trustee will not perform other due diligence or
investigation of Authorized Participants.

     C1.4.4  The Authorized Participant must have in place, before a Purchase
Order can be processed, account instructions for euro transfers set up with its

     C1.4.5  By 3:30 p.m. CET time on CREATION T+3, euros in the amount

     C1.4.7  Prior to the delivery of the Baskets on CREATION T+3, the
Authorized Participant must accept a DTC SPO Charge for the applicable

Important Notes:

         All Orders are subject to the provisions of the Participant Agreement
