“Trustee”) of the CurrencyShares Trusts set forth on Schedule A hereto (the “Trusts”) and Rydex Specialized Products LLC, a Delaware limited liability company d/b/a “Rydex Investments” (the

 WHEREAS, various authorized participants (the “Authorized
Participants”), the Trustee and the Sponsor are parties to those certain Participant Agreements set forth on Schedule B hereto, as the same may have previously been amended (collectively the “Agreements” and
individually, an “Agreement”); and 
 WHEREAS, the Trustee and the Sponsor desire to amend each of the
Agreements on the terms and conditions set forth below. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the terms and conditions
contained herein, and in accordance with Section 18(a) of each Agreement, each of the Agreements is hereby amended as follows: 
 1. Definitions. All capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Agreements. 

2. Amendments. Section 7 of each Agreement is hereby revised in its entirety to read as follows: 

“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 or its customer, as the case may be, 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, borrowed or temporarily obtained from another party and are not the subject of any repurchase agreement, reverse repurchase agreement or 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 date of the Redemption Order.” 
 3. Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts together shall constitute one and the same
instrument. 

 4. Other. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Amendment and the
terms of the Agreements, the terms of this Amendment shall control. All other terms and conditions of the Agreements shall remain in full force and effect.

 8Deposit Account Agreement

 Exhibit 10.1 
 DEPOSIT ACCOUNT AGREEMENT 
 GLOBAL ACCOUNT TERMS 

The Bank of New York Mellon, in its capacity as trustee of the CurrencySharesSM Russian Ruble Trust, a trust formed under New York law (the
“Customer” or “Trust”) and the London Branch of JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (the “Bank”) undertake to comply with and be bound by the following Global Account Terms of this Deposit Account Agreement (the
“Agreement”). 
 ESTABLISHING ACCOUNTS 
  

	1.1	The Customer’s Russian Ruble-denominated, (i) interest-bearing account (the “Interest Account”) and (ii) non interest-bearing account (
the “Non-Interest Account”) (each individually the “Account” and collectively the “Accounts”) maintained with the Bank shall be subject to these Global Account Terms (the “Account
Terms”) and the Account Application and the Signature List executed by the Customer regarding the Accounts attached hereto (together, the “Account Applications”); and, by continuing to use the Accounts, the Customer
acknowledges its acceptance of these Account Terms and the relevant Account Applications. 

  

	1.2	Unless otherwise specified, the Customer will establish the Accounts as principal. The Customer shall not transfer any of its rights and interests in the Accounts nor
create any form of security interest over such rights and interests without the prior written consent of the Bank. 

  

	1.3	The Customer represents and warrants that it has power and capacity to open and operate the Accounts, that the Account Terms and the relevant Account Applications
constitute valid and binding obligations of the Customer and that the Customer has taken all necessary actions to duly authorize the execution and delivery of the same. 

 SIGNATORIES 
  

	2.1	“Signatory” means a person named in the relevant Account Application (or other analogous document under which the Customer authorises persons to communicate
with the Bank in relation to the Accounts) who is authorised to act on behalf of the Customer at the time of the relevant Instruction (as defined in Section 4.1) and in respect of the matters set out in clause 3 below. 

 

	2.2	The Bank may treat any Signatory as duly authorised to issue Instructions until the Bank receives written notice from the Customer, after which the Bank shall act
promptly, that the Signatory no longer has the authority to issue Instructions. 

  

	2.3	The Customer will provide specimen signatures (including specimens of facsimile signatures and/or personal seals) to the Bank (in the Account Application or otherwise)
in the number and form required and will verify the identity of each Signatory in a manner required by the Bank. 

 AUTHORITY OF SIGNATORIES 

 

	3.1	Each Signatory, subject to any written limitation received by the Bank from the Customer, is authorised on behalf of the Customer to: 

 

	 	(a)	open, operate and close the Accounts; 

  

	 	(b)	appoint and remove Signatories; 

  

	 	(c)	execute the Account Application(s) and any form of agreement relating to communications, whether by telephone, telex, electronic or other means;

  

	 	(d)	execute any agreements relating to overdrafts, borrowings or cash management; 

 

	 	(e)	draw, accept, endorse or discount cheques, drafts, bills of exchange, notes and other instruments; 

 

	 	(f)	overdraw the Accounts as may be permitted by the Bank; 

  

	 	(g)	make arrangements with the Bank concerning periodic payments into or out of the Accounts; 

 

	 	(h)	advise the Bank of credits destined for the Customer’s Account; 

  

	 	(i)	place money on interest-bearing or term deposit with the Bank and withdraw that money and accrued interest either on or before any applicable maturity date;

  

	 	(j)	authorize and request the Bank to effect foreign exchange transactions and purchase and/or sell treasury products for the account of the Customer;

  

	 	(k)	deposit any property of the Customer with the Bank for safe keeping, have access to and reclaim any property so deposited or give the Bank Instructions in relation to
it; 

  

	 	(l)	execute guarantees, indemnities or other undertakings to the Bank in relation to: 

 

	 	(i)	missing documents; 

  

	 	(ii)	guarantees, letters of credit or other undertakings given or to be given by the Bank to or at the request of the Customer; or 

 

	 	(iii)	anything else done or to be done by the Bank at the request of the Customer; 

 

	 	(m)	give the Bank any form of security over, or make any other arrangements with the Bank concerning, any property of the Customer including without limitation bills of
exchange, bills of lading, warehouse certificates, insurance policies and share and debenture certificates; 

  

	 	(n)	countermand, revoke or amend Instructions; and 

  
 2 

	 	(o)	give the Bank Instructions relating to any of the above. 

 INSTRUCTIONS 
  

	4.1	“Instruction” means a communication, including without limitation a cheque or demand for payment, which (i) contains the information required by
the Bank to enable the Bank to give effect to the communication; (ii) is received by the Bank in writing, by facsimile, tested or untested telex, SWIFT, telephone, or via the Bank’s electronic instruction system or such other means as are
for the time being agreed by the Customer and the Bank; and (iii) the Bank believes in good faith to have been given by the Customer. 

  

	4.2	The Customer is responsible for keeping and completing cheques and other forms and documents and for issuing Instructions in a manner so as to prevent unauthorised
completion, alterations or additions. The Customer shall not issue cheques which are post-dated and shall immediately notify the Bank if it becomes aware that any of its cheques (whether completed or blank) are lost or stolen.

  

	4.3	If the Bank and the Customer at any time agree on a security procedure to be used in relation to any category of communications (including encryption), the Customer
shall safeguard any test keys, passwords, identification codes or other security or authentication devices, make them available only to properly authorised persons and be fully responsible for any use of such security procedure (whether authorised
or unauthorised) 

  

	4.4	Nothing in this Clause 4 obligates the Bank to confirm Instructions which appear to the Bank acting in good faith to have been given by the Customer.

 AUTHORITY AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE BANK 

 

	5.1.	The Bank is authorised and agrees to accept, honour and execute without inquiry each Instruction which the Bank believes in good faith to have been given by a Signatory
and any other Instruction communicated by other means which the Bank receives in strict accordance with any agreed security procedure. Provided the Bank believes in good faith that an Instruction has been given by a Signatory, where such an
Instruction has been effected by means of a facsimile signature, personal seal or chop, the Bank is authorised to act on such Instruction, regardless of by whom the facsimile signature, personal seal or chop was actually affixed. The Bank need not
inquire into the circumstances of any transaction. 

  

	5.2	The Bank may at its option use any means to confirm or clarify Instructions, even if any agreed security procedure appears to have been followed. If the Bank is not
satisfied with any confirmation or clarification, it may decline to honour the Instruction. 

  

	5.3	The Bank has established cut-off times for some categories of communications, details of which are attached hereto as Addendum A. If an Instruction is received by the
Bank after its cut-off times, the Bank may process the Instruction on the next day on which it is open for such business. The Bank may process any Instruction through any of the payments systems identified in Addendum A. 

  
 3 

	5.4	Execution of Instructions will be subject to applicable law and the rules of the payment system used, including those laws or rules concerning a misdescribed or missing
beneficiary, beneficiary’s bank or intermediary bank. The Bank may rely on the identifying number of any account, intermediary or beneficiary’s bank which appears in an Instruction as the proper identification of the beneficiary,
intermediary or beneficiary’s bank notwithstanding that the Instruction identifies an entity different from the entity identified by name in the Instruction. The Bank may complete or correct incomplete or inaccurate intermediary or beneficiary
bank details. 

  

	5.5	Due to the operations of the Trust, mid-month redemptions of shares of the Trust could result in an Instruction that would require a withdrawal from the Non-Interest
Account in excess of the balance in such account. The Bank shall honour such an Instruction without assessing an overdraft fee. The Bank may charge customary interest, fees and other expenses for all other overdrafts of the Non-Interest Account or
the Interest Account. 

  

	5.6	Where execution of an Instruction requires the Bank to purchase or sell a currency other than the currency of the Account on which the Instruction is given, the Bank is
authorised to purchase or sell the currency at a commercially reasonable rate at the relevant time for the purchase or sale of such currency taking into account the size and tenor of the transaction. 

 

	5.7	If the Customer chooses to confirm any Instruction, any confirmation must be clearly marked as such and, if there is any discrepancy between an Instruction and any
confirmation, the terms of the Instruction shall prevail. 

 DEPOSITS, AVAILABILITY OF FUNDS 

 

	6.1	The Customer undertakes that it will have good title to all items presented to the Bank for deposit or for any other purpose. Money deposited or paid into an Account
will not be regarded as available until collected and irrevocably received in cleared funds. The Customer requests that the Bank accept without inquiry all cheques and other instruments presented for deposit into the Account without checking whether
they are valid, properly endorsed or owned by the Customer. 

  

	6.2	As collecting bank, the Bank as agent for the Customer will deal with and present the cheques and instruments in accordance with the custom and practice of the country
in which the cheques are collected. 

  

	6.3	If the Bank credits the Account in contemplation of receiving funds for the Customer’s credit and those funds are not actually received by the Bank, or on the
faith of a transaction which is subsequently set aside or revoked, or if the Bank does not receive funds for the Customer’s credit for value on the date advised by or on behalf of the Customer, the Bank shall be entitled to debit the Account of
the Customer with the amount previously credited and/or with any other charges incurred. If the Account becomes overdrawn or further overdrawn as a result of such debit, the Customer will pay on demand the overdrawn amount and interest on the
overdrawn amount. 

  

	6.4	 Bank reserves the right not to accept, and to return without interest to the remitter of funds,

  
 4 

	 	 
the amounts received for deposit to the Interest Account on any Bank business day, if the aggregate deposit liability of the Bank to the Trust following the deposit of such amounts would exceed
the Russian Ruble equivalent of $500 million U.S. dollars calculated at the Russian Ruble/U.S. dollar exchange rate as determined by WM/Reuters at 4:00 PM (London time) on each Bank business day (the “Closing Spot Rate”) or another
recognized market rate for the Russian Ruble if the Closing Spot Rate is not available on the banking day such deposits are received by the Bank. 

  

	6.5	The Bank shall notify the Customer and the Customer’s sponsor if there are extraordinary circumstances causing the Bank to reasonably expect that it will be unable
to accept Instructions for the withdrawal of money held in the Accounts. Upon such notification, the Customer may determine, in its sole discretion, to suspend generally or refuse orders to redeem shares of the Trust. In such case, the Customer and
the Bank shall consult with each other and use good faith efforts to resume withdrawals as soon as possible. 

  

	6.6	Each day that orders are placed with and accepted by the Trust for the purchase or redemption of shares in the Trust, the Trust shall notify the Bank of the anticipated
amounts of Russian Rubles that will be deposited to, or withdrawn from, the Interest Account on the settlement date for those orders. 

 INTEREST 
  

	7.1	Interest will accrue daily, in Russian Rubles, on all Russian Ruble balances in the Interest Account only and will be credited monthly, in Russian Rubles, to the

of this Agreement, the Bank has agreed to pay interest at an annual nominal rate equal to [3.80]%. The Bank may change the rate based upon changes in market conditions or the Bank’s liquidity needs. The Bank will notify the Customer of the
interest rate applied each Bank business day after the close of the Bank business day. The Bank will endeavour to provide to the Customer and Customer’s sponsor advance notice whenever the Bank intends to change the interest rate on the
Interest Account, except where there are unforeseen changes in conditions or significant changes in the Trust’s balances in the Interest Account. If the Bank at any time pays an unsatisfactory interest rate on the Interest Account, the
Customer’s sole recourse will to be to withdraw the Russian Ruble balance from the Interest Account, terminate the Deposit Account Agreement and close the Accounts.
