$1,000 in a bank account in the name of the Trust controlled by the Managing Owner, which funds shall be held in trust, upon and subject to the conditions set forth herein for the use and benefit of the Unitholders. It is the intention of the
parties hereto that the Trust shall be a statutory trust under the Delaware Trust Statute and that this Trust Agreement shall constitute the governing instrument of the Trust. It is not the intention of the parties hereto to create a general
partnership, limited partnership, limited liability company, joint stock association, corporation, bailment or any form of legal relationship other than a Delaware statutory trust except to the extent that the Trust is deemed to constitute a
partnership under the Code and applicable state and local tax laws. Nothing in this Trust Agreement shall be construed to make the Unitholders partners or members of a joint stock association except to the extent such Unitholders are deemed to be
partners under the Code and applicable state and local tax laws. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is the intention of the parties hereto to create a partnership among the Unitholders for purposes of taxation under the Code and applicable state and
local tax laws. Effective as of the date hereof, the Trustee and the Managing Owner shall have all of the rights, powers and duties set forth herein and in the Delaware Trust Statute with respect to accomplishing the purposes of the Trust. The
Trustee has filed the certificate of trust required by Section 3810 of the Delaware Trust Statute in connection with the formation of the Trust under the Delaware Trust Statute.

or otherwise acquire, hold or dispose of Index Currencies, including, but not limited to, exchange-traded futures on the Index Currencies with a view to tracking the performance of the Index over time; (b) to enter into forward contracts

  
 9 

 
referencing the Index or one or more of the Index Currencies with a view to tracking the performance of the Index over time; (c) to enter into any lawful transaction and engage in any lawful
activities in furtherance of or incidental to the foregoing purposes; and (d) as determined from time to time by the Managing Owner, to engage in any other lawful business or activity for which a statutory trust may be organized under the
Delaware Trust Statute. The Trust shall not engage in any other business or activity and shall not acquire or own any other assets or take any of the actions set forth in Section 4.4. The Trust shall have all of the powers specified in
Section 15.1 hereof, including, without limitation, all of the powers which may be exercised by a Managing Owner on behalf of the Trust under this Trust Agreement. 
 SECTION 1.6. Tax Treatment. 
 (a) Each of the parties hereto, by entering
into this Trust Agreement, (i) expresses its intention that the Units will qualify under applicable tax law as interests in a partnership which holds the Trust Estate, (ii) agrees that it will file its own U.S. federal, state and
local income, franchise and other tax returns in a manner that is consistent with the classification of the Trust as a partnership in which each of the Unitholders thereof is a partner and (iii) agrees to use reasonable efforts to notify the
Managing Owner promptly upon a receipt of any notice from any taxing authority having jurisdiction over such holders of Units with respect to the treatment of the Units as anything other than interests in a partnership. 

(b) The Tax Matters Partner (as defined in Section 6231 of the Code and any corresponding state and local tax law) of the Trust
initially shall be the Managing Owner. The Tax Matters Partner, at the expense of the Trust, (i) shall prepare or cause to be prepared and filed the Trust’s tax returns as a partnership for U.S. federal, state and local tax purposes
and (ii) shall be authorized to perform all duties imposed by Section 6221 et seq. of the Code, including, without limitation, (A) the power to conduct all audits and other administrative proceedings with respect to the
Trust’s tax items; (B) the power to extend the statute of limitations for all Unitholders with respect to the Trust’s tax items; (C) the power to file a petition with an appropriate U.S. federal court for review of a final
administrative adjustment of the Trust; and (D) the power to enter into a settlement with the IRS on behalf of, and binding upon, those Limited Owners having less than 1% interest in the Trust, unless a Limited Owner shall have notified the IRS
and the Managing Owner that the Managing Owner shall not act on such Limited Owner’s behalf. The designation made by each Unitholder of the Trust in this Section 1.6(b) is hereby approved by each Unitholder as an express condition to
becoming a Unitholder. Each Unitholder agrees to take any further action as may be required by regulation or otherwise to effectuate such designation. Subject to Section 4.7, the Trust hereby indemnifies, to the full extent permitted by law,
the Managing Owner from and against any damages or losses (including attorneys’ fees) arising out of or incurred in connection with any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in carrying out its responsibilities as Tax Matters Partner,
provided such action taken or omitted to be taken does not constitute fraud, negligence or misconduct. 
 (c) The Beneficial
Owners who are of a type, as identified by the nominee through whom their Units are held, that do not ordinarily have U.S. federal tax return filing requirements (collectively, “Certain K-1 Unitholders”) shall designate the Managing
Owner as their tax agent (the “Tax Agent”) in dealing with the Trust. In light of such designation and pursuant to Treasury Regulation section 1.6031(b)-1T(c), as amended from time to time, the

  
 10 

 
Trust shall provide to the Tax Agent Certain K-1 Unitholders’ statements (as such term is defined under Treasury Regulation section 1.6031(b)-1T(a)(3)), as amended from time to time).

 SECTION 1.7. General Liability of the Managing Owner. 

(a) The Managing Owner shall be liable for the acts, omissions, obligations and expenses of the Trust, to the extent not paid out of the
assets of the Trust, to the same extent the Managing Owner would be so liable as if the Trust were a partnership under the Delaware Revised Uniform Limited Partnership Act and the Managing Owner were a general partner of such partnership. The
foregoing provision shall not, however, limit the ability of the Managing Owner to limit its liability by contract. The obligations of the Managing Owner under this Section 1.7 shall be evidenced by its ownership of the General Units which,
solely for purposes of the Delaware Trust Statute, will be deemed to be a separate class of Units of the Trust. Without limiting or affecting the liability of the Managing Owner as set forth in this Section 1.7, notwithstanding anything in this
Trust Agreement to the contrary, Persons having any claim against the Trust by reason of the transactions contemplated by this Trust Agreement and any other agreement, instrument, obligation or other undertaking to which the Trust is a party, shall
look only to the Trust Estate for payment or satisfaction thereof. 
 (b) Subject to Sections 8.1 and 8.3 hereof, no
Unitholder, other than the Managing Owner, to the extent set forth above, shall have any personal liability for any liability or obligation of the Trust. 
 SECTION 1.8. Legal Title. Legal title to all of the Trust Estate shall be vested in the Trust as a separate legal entity; provided, however, that where applicable law in any
jurisdiction requires any part of the Trust Estate to be vested otherwise, the Managing Owner may cause legal title to the Trust Estate or any portion thereof to be held by or in the name of the Managing Owner or any other Person (other than a
Unitholder) as nominee. 
 ARTICLE II 
 THE TRUSTEE 
 SECTION 2.1. Term; Resignation. 

(a) Wilmington Trust Company has been appointed and hereby agrees to serve as the Trustee of the Trust. The Trust shall have only one
Trustee unless otherwise determined by the Managing Owner. The Trustee shall serve until such time as the Managing Owner removes the Trustee or the Trustee resigns and a successor Trustee is appointed by the Managing Owner in accordance with the
terms of Section 2.5 hereof. 
 (b) The Trustee may resign at any time upon the giving of at least sixty
(60) days’ advance written notice to the Trust; provided, that such resignation shall not become effective unless and until a successor Trustee shall have been appointed by the Managing Owner in accordance with Section 2.5 hereof. If
the Managing Owner does not act within such sixty (60) day period, the Trustee may apply, at the expense of the Trust, to the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware for the appointment of a successor Trustee. 

  
 11 

 SECTION 2.2. Powers. The Trustee shall have only the rights, obligations and
liabilities specifically provided for herein and shall have no implied rights, duties, obligations and liabilities with respect to the business and affairs of the Trust. The Trustee shall have the power and authority to execute and file certificates
as required by the Delaware Trust Statute and to accept service of process on the Trust in the State of Delaware. The Trustee shall provide prompt notice to the Managing Owner of its performance of any of the foregoing. The Managing Owner shall
reasonably keep the Trustee informed of any actions taken by the Managing Owner with respect to the Trust that would reasonably be expected to affect the rights, obligations or liabilities of the Trustee hereunder or under the Delaware Trust
Statute. 
 SECTION 2.3. Compensation and Expenses of the Trustee. The Trustee shall be entitled to receive from the
Managing Owner or an Affiliate of the Managing Owner (including the Trust) reasonable compensation for its services hereunder as set forth in a separate fee agreement and shall be entitled to be reimbursed by the Managing Owner or an Affiliate of
the Managing Owner (including the Trust) for reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by it in the performance of its duties hereunder, including without limitation, the reasonable compensation, out-of-pocket expenses and disbursements of counsel
and such other agents as the Trustee may employ in connection with the exercise and performance of its rights and duties hereunder. 
 SECTION 2.4. Indemnification. The Trust (or if the Trust has insufficient assets, the Managing Owner) shall be liable for, and does hereby indemnify, protect, save and keep harmless the Trustee (in
its capacity as Trustee and individually) and its successors, assigns, legal representatives, officers, directors, employees, agents and servants (the “Indemnified Parties”) from and against any and all liabilities, obligations,
losses, damages, penalties, taxes (excluding any taxes payable by the Trustee on or measured by any compensation received by the Trustee for its services hereunder or any indemnity payments received by the Trustee pursuant to this Section 2.4),
claims, actions, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements (including legal fees and expenses) of any kind and nature whatsoever (collectively, “Expenses”), which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Indemnified
Parties in any way relating to or arising out of the formation, operation or termination of the Trust, the execution, delivery and performance of any other agreements to which the Trust is a party or the action or inaction of the Trustee hereunder
or thereunder, except for Expenses resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Indemnified Parties. The indemnities contained in this Section 2.4 shall survive the termination of this Trust Agreement or the removal or
resignation of the Trustee. 
 SECTION 2.5. Successor Trustee. Upon the resignation or removal of the Trustee, the
Managing Owner shall appoint a successor Trustee by delivering a written instrument to the outgoing Trustee. Any successor Trustee must satisfy the requirements of Section 3807 of the Delaware Trust Statute. Any resignation or removal of the
Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee shall not become effective until a written acceptance of appointment is delivered by the successor Trustee to the outgoing Trustee and the Managing Owner and any fees and expenses due to the outgoing
Trustee are paid. Following compliance with the preceding sentence, the successor Trustee shall become fully vested with all of the rights, powers, duties and obligations of the outgoing Trustee under this Trust Agreement, with like

  
 12 

 
effect as if originally named as Trustee, and the outgoing Trustee shall be discharged of its duties and obligations under this Trust Agreement. 

SECTION 2.6. Liability of Trustee. Except as otherwise provided in this Article II, in accepting the trust created hereby,
Wilmington Trust Company acts solely as Trustee hereunder and not in its individual capacity, and all Persons having any claim against Wilmington Trust Company by reason of the transactions contemplated by this Trust Agreement and any other
agreement to which the Trust is a party shall look only to the Trust Estate for payment or satisfaction thereof; provided, however, that in no event is the foregoing intended to affect or limit the liability of the Managing Owner as
set forth in Section 1.7 hereof. The Trustee shall not be liable or accountable hereunder to the Trust or to any other Person or under any other agreement to which the Trust is a party, except for the Trustee’s own gross negligence or
willful misconduct. In particular, but not by way of limitation: 
 (a) The Trustee shall have no liability or responsibility
for the validity or sufficiency of this Trust Agreement or for the form, character, genuineness, sufficiency, value or validity of the Trust Estate; 
 (b) The Trustee shall not be liable for any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it in accordance with the instructions of the Managing Owner or the Liquidating Trustee; 

(c) The Trustee shall not have any liability for the acts or omissions of the Managing Owner or its delegatees; 

(d) The Trustee shall not be liable for its failure to supervise the performance of any obligations of the Managing Owner or its
delegatees or any Participant; 
 (e) No provision of this Trust Agreement shall require the Trustee to act or expend or risk
its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its rights or powers hereunder if the Trustee shall have reasonable grounds for believing that such action, repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against
such risk or liability is not reasonably assured or provided to it; 
 (f) Under no circumstances shall the Trustee be liable
for indebtedness evidenced by or other obligations of the Trust arising under this Trust Agreement or any other agreements to which the Trust is a party; 
 (g) The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or powers vested in it by this Trust Agreement, or to institute, conduct or defend any litigation under this Trust Agreement or
any other agreements to which the Trust is a party, at the request, order or direction of the Managing Owner unless the Managing Owner has offered to Wilmington Trust Company (in its capacity as Trustee and individually) security or indemnity
satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities that may be incurred by Wilmington Trust Company (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees and expenses of its counsel) therein or thereby; 

(h) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Trustee shall not be required to take any action in any jurisdiction
other than in the State of Delaware if 

  
 13 

 
the taking of such action will (A) require the consent or approval or authorization or order of or the giving of notice to, or the registration with or taking of any action in respect of,
any state or other governmental authority or agency of any jurisdiction other than the State of Delaware, (B) result in any fee, tax or other governmental charge under the laws of any jurisdiction or any political subdivision thereof in
existence as of the date hereof other than the State of Delaware becoming payable by the Trustee or (C) subject the Trustee to personal jurisdiction, other than in the State of Delaware, for causes of action arising from personal acts unrelated
to the consummation of the transactions by the Trustee, as the case may be, contemplated hereby; and 
 (i) To the extent that,
at law or in equity, the Trustee has duties (including fiduciary duties) and liabilities relating thereto to the Trust, the Unitholders or to any other Person, the Trustee acting under this Trust Agreement shall not be liable to the Trust, the
Unitholders or to any other Person for its good faith reliance on the provisions of this Trust Agreement. The provisions of this Trust Agreement, to the extent that they restrict the duties and liabilities of the Trustee otherwise existing at law or
in equity are agreed by the parties hereto to replace such other duties and liabilities of the Trustee. 
 SECTION 2.7.
Reliance; Advice of Counsel. 
 (a) In the absence of bad faith, the Trustee may conclusively rely upon certificates or
opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements of this Trust Agreement in determining the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions contained therein, and shall incur no liability to anyone in acting on any
signature, instrument, notice, resolution, request, consent, order, certificate, report, opinion, bond or other document or paper believed by it to be genuine and believed by it to be signed by the proper party or parties and need not investigate
any fact or matter pertaining to or in any such document; provided, however, that the Trustee shall have examined any certificates or opinions so as to reasonably determine compliance of the same with the requirements of this Trust Agreement. The
Trustee may accept a certified copy of a resolution of the board of directors or other governing body of any corporate party as conclusive evidence that such resolution has been duly adopted by such body and that the same is in full force and
effect. As to any fact or matter the method of the determination of which is not specifically prescribed herein, the Trustee may for all purposes hereof rely on a certificate, signed by the president or any vice president or by the treasurer or
other authorized officer of the relevant party, as to such fact or matter, and such certificate shall constitute full protection to the Trustee for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in reliance thereon. 

(b) In the exercise or administration of the Trust hereunder and in the performance of its duties and obligations under this Trust
Agreement, the Trustee, at the expense of the Managing Owner or an Affiliate of the Managing Owner (including the Trust) (i) may act directly or through its agents, attorneys, custodians or nominees pursuant to agreements entered into with any
of them, and the Trustee shall not be liable for the conduct or misconduct of such agents, attorneys, custodians or nominees if such agents, attorneys, custodians or nominees shall have been selected by the Trustee with reasonable care and
(ii) may consult with counsel, accountants and other skilled professionals to be selected with reasonable care by it. The Trustee shall not be liable for anything done, suffered or omitted in good faith by it in accordance with the opinion or
advice of any such counsel, accountant or other such Persons. 

  
 14 

 SECTION 2.8. Payments to the Trustee. Any amounts paid to the Trustee pursuant to
this Article shall be deemed not to be a part of the Trust Estate immediately after such payment. Any amounts owing to the Trustee under this Trust Agreement shall constitute a claim against the Trust Estate. 

ARTICLE III 
 UNITS; CAPITAL CONTRIBUTIONS; CREATIONS AND ISSUANCE OF CREATION BASKETS 

SECTION 3.1. General. The Managing Owner shall have the power and authority, without Limited Owner approval, to issue Units from
time to time as it deems necessary or desirable. The number of Units authorized shall be unlimited, and the Units so authorized may be represented in part by fractional Units, calculated to four decimal places. From time to time, the Managing Owner
may divide or combine the Units into a greater or lesser number without thereby changing the proportionate beneficial interests. The Managing Owner may issue Units for such consideration and on such terms as it may determine (or for no consideration
if pursuant to a Unit dividend or split-up), all without action or approval of the Limited Owners. All Units when so issued on the terms determined by the Managing Owner shall be fully paid and non-assessable. The Units initially shall be divided
into two classes: General Units and Limited Units. Every Unitholder, by virtue of having purchased or otherwise acquired a Unit, shall be deemed to have expressly consented and agreed to be bound by the terms of this Trust Agreement. 

SECTION 3.2. Offer of Limited Units. The Trust may offer Limited Units to Participants in Creation Baskets and admit additional
Limited Owners and/or accept additional contributions from existing Limited Owners pursuant to the Prospectus, Sections 3.3 and 3.4 of this Trust Agreement and the Participant Agreements. 

SECTION 3.3. Procedures for Creation and Issuance of Creation Baskets. 

(a) General. The following procedures, as supplemented by the more detailed procedures specified in the Exhibits, annexes,
attachments and procedures, as applicable, to the Participant Agreement, which may be amended from time to time in accordance with the provisions of the Participant Agreement (and any such amendment will not constitute an amendment of this Trust
Agreement), will govern the Trust with respect to the creation and issuance of additional Creation Baskets. Subject to the limitations upon and requirements for issuance of Creation Baskets stated herein and in such procedures, the number of
Creation Baskets which may be issued by the Trust is unlimited. 
 (i) On any Business Day, a Participant may
submit to the Managing Owner a purchase order and subscription agreement to subscribe for and agree to purchase one or more Creation Baskets (such request by a Participant, a “Purchase Order Subscription Agreement”) in the manner
provided in the Participant Agreement. Purchase Order Subscription Agreements must be received by the Order Cut-Off Time on a Business Day (the “Purchase Order Subscription Date”). The Managing Owner will

  
 15 

 
process Purchase Order Subscription Agreements only from Participants with respect to which the Participant Agreement is in full force and effect. The Managing Owner will maintain and make
available at the Trust’s principal offices during normal business hours a current list of the Participants with respect to which the Participant Agreement is in full force and effect. The Managing Owner will deliver (or cause to be delivered) a
copy of the Prospectus to each Participant prior to its execution and delivery of the Participant Agreement and prior to accepting any Purchase Order Subscription Agreement. 

(ii) Any Purchase Order Subscription Agreement is subject to rejection by the Managing Owner pursuant to
Section 3.3(c). 
 (iii) After accepting a Participant’s Purchase Order Subscription Agreement, the
Managing Owner will issue and deliver Creation Baskets to fill a Participant’s Purchase Order Subscription Agreement within three Business Days immediately following the Purchase Order Subscription Date, but only if by such time as provided in
the Participant Agreement the Managing Owner has received (A) for its own account, the Transaction Fee, and (B) for the account of the Trust the Creation Basket Capital Contribution due from the Participant submitting the Purchase Order
Subscription Agreement. 
 (b) Deposit with the Depository. Upon issuing a Creation Basket pursuant to a Purchase Order
Subscription Agreement, the Managing Owner will cause the Trust to deposit the Creation Basket with the Depository in accordance with the Depository’s customary procedures, for credit to the account of the Participant that submitted the
Purchase Order Subscription Agreement. 
 (c) Rejection. The Managing Owner shall have the absolute right, but shall have
no obligation, to reject any Purchase Order Subscription Agreement or Creation Basket Capital Contribution: (i) determined by the Managing Owner not to be in proper form; (ii) that the Managing Owner has determined would have adverse tax
consequences to the Trust or to the Limited Owners; (iii) the acceptance or receipt of which would, in the opinion of counsel to the Managing Owner, be unlawful; or (iv) if circumstances outside the control of the Managing Owner make it
for all practical purposes not feasible to process creations of Creation Baskets. The Managing Owner shall not be liable to any person by reason of the rejection of any Purchase Order Subscription Agreement or Creation Basket Capital Contribution.

 (d) Transaction Fee. A non-refundable transaction fee will be payable by a Participant to the Managing Owner for its
own account in connection with each Purchase Order Subscription Agreement pursuant to this Section and in connection with each Redemption Order of such Participant pursuant to Section 7.1 (each a “Transaction Fee”). The
Transaction Fee charged in connection with each such creation and redemption shall be initially $500, but may be changed as provided below. Even though a single Purchase Order Subscription Agreement or Redemption Order may relate to multiple
Creation Baskets, only a single Transaction Fee will be due for each Purchase Order or Redemption Order. The Transaction Fee may subsequently be waived, modified, reduced, increased or otherwise changed by the Managing Owner, but will not in any
event exceed 0.10% of the Net Asset Value Per Basket at the time of creation of a Creation Basket or redemption of a Redemption Basket, as the case may be. The Managing 

  
 16 

 
Owner shall notify the Depository of any agreement to change the Transaction Fee and shall not implement any increase for redemptions of outstanding Units until 30 days after the date of
that notice. The amount of the Transaction Fee in effect at any given time shall be made available by the Trustee upon request. 

(e) Global Certificate Only. Certificates for Creation Baskets will not be issued, other than the Global Security issued to the
Depository. So long as the Depository Agreement is in effect, Creation Baskets will be issued and redeemed and Limited Units will be transferable solely through the book-entry systems of the Depository and the DTC Participants and their Indirect
Participants as more fully described in Section 3.4. The Depository may determine to discontinue providing its service with respect to Creation Baskets and Limited Units by giving notice to the Managing Owner pursuant to and in conformity with
the provisions of the Depository Agreement and discharging its responsibilities with respect thereto under applicable law. Under such circumstances, the Managing Owner shall take action either to find a replacement for the Depository to perform its
functions at a comparable cost and on terms acceptable to the Managing Owner or, if such a replacement is unavailable, to terminate the Trust. 
 SECTION 3.4. Book-Entry-Only System, Global Security. 
 (a) Global
Security. The Trust and the Managing Owner will enter into the Depository Agreement pursuant to which the Depository will act as securities depository for Limited Units. Limited Units will be represented by the Global Security (which may consist
of one certificate or more certificates as required by the Depository), which will be registered, as the Depository shall direct, in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee for the Depository and deposited with, or on behalf of, the Depository.
No other certificates evidencing Limited Units will be issued. The Global Security shall be in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C and shall represent such Limited Units as shall be specified therein, and may provide that it shall represent
the aggregate amount of outstanding Limited Units from time to time endorsed thereon and that the aggregate amount of outstanding Limited Units represented thereby may from time to time be increased or decreased to reflect creations or redemptions
of Baskets. Any endorsement of a Global Security to reflect the amount, or any increase or decrease in the amount, of outstanding Limited Units represented thereby shall be made in such manner and upon instructions given by the Managing Owner on
behalf of the Trust as specified in the Depository Agreement. 
 (b) Legend. Any Global Security issued to The Depository
Trust Company or its nominee shall bear a legend substantially to the following effect: “Unless this certificate is presented by an authorized representative of The Depository Trust Company, a New York corporation (“DTC”), to
the Trust or its agent 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 required 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.” 

  
 17 

 (c) The Depository. The Depository has advised the Trust and the Managing Owner as
follows. The Depository is a limited-purpose trust company organized under the New York Banking Law, a “banking organization” within the meaning of the New York Banking Law, a member of the U.S. Federal Reserve System, a
“clearing corporation” within the meaning of the New York Uniform Commercial Code, and a “clearing agency” registered pursuant to the provisions of Section 17A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. DTC holds
and provides asset servicing for DTC’s participants (the “DTC Participants”). DTC also facilitates the post-trade settlement among DTC Participants of sales and other securities transactions among the DTC Participants in
deposited securities, through electronic computerized book-entry transfers and pledges between DTC Participants’ accounts. This eliminates the need for physical movement of securities certificates. DTC Participants include both U.S. and
non-U.S. securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations, and certain other organizations. DTC is a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation (“DTCC”). DTCC is
the holding company for DTC, National Securities Clearing Corporation and Fixed Income Clearing Corporation, all of which are registered clearing agencies. DTCC is owned by the users of its regulated subsidiaries. Access to the DTC system is also
available to others such as both U.S. and non-U.S. securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, and clearing corporations that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a DTC Participant, either directly or
indirectly (“Indirect Participants”). 
 (d) Beneficial Owners. As provided in the Depository Agreement,
the settlement date of any creation, transfer or redemption of Limited Units, the Depository will credit or debit, on its book-entry registration and transfer system, the number of Limited Units so created, transferred or redeemed to the accounts of
the appropriate DTC Participants. The accounts to be credited and charged shall be designated by the Managing Owner on behalf of the Trust and each Participant, in the case of a creation or redemption of Baskets. Ownership of beneficial interests in
Limited Units will be limited to DTC Participants, Indirect Participants and persons holding interests through DTC Participants and Indirect Participants. Owners of beneficial interests in Limited Units (“Beneficial Owners”) will be
shown on, and the transfer of beneficial ownership by Beneficial Owners will be effected only through, in the case of DTC Participants, records maintained by the Depository and, in the case of Indirect Participants and Beneficial Owners holding
through a DTC Participant or an Indirect Participant, through those records or the records of the relevant DTC Participants. Beneficial Owners are expected to receive from or through the broker or bank that maintains the account through which the
Beneficial Owner has purchased or sold Limited Units a written confirmation relating to their purchase or sale of Limited Units. 
 (e) Reliance on Procedures. So long as Cede & Co., as nominee of the Depository, is the registered owner of Limited Units, references herein to the registered or record owners of Limited
Units shall mean Cede & Co. and shall not mean the Beneficial Owners of Limited Units. Beneficial Owners of Limited Units will not be entitled to have Limited Units registered in their names, will not receive or be entitled to receive
physical delivery of certificates in definitive form and will not be considered the record or registered holder of Limited Units under this Trust Agreement. Accordingly, to exercise any rights of a holder of Limited Units under this Trust Agreement,
a Beneficial Owner must rely on the procedures of the Depository and, if such Beneficial Owner is not a DTC Participant, on the procedures of each DTC Participant or Indirect Participant through which such Beneficial Owner holds its interests.

  
 18 

 
The Trust and the Managing Owner understand that under existing industry practice, if the Trust requests any action of a Beneficial Owner, or a Beneficial Owner desires to take any action that
the Depository, as the record owner of all outstanding Limited Units of the Trust, is entitled to take, in the case of a Trustee request, the Depository will notify the DTC Participants regarding such request, such DTC Participants will in turn
notify each Indirect Participant holding Limited Units through it, with each successive Indirect Participant continuing to notify each person holding Limited Units through it until the request has reached the Beneficial Owner, and in the case of a
request or authorization to act being sought or given by a Beneficial Owner, such request or authorization is given by the Beneficial Owner and relayed back to the Trust through each Indirect Participant and DTC Participant through which the
Beneficial Owner’s interest in the Limited Units is held. 
 (f) Communication between the Trust and the Beneficial
Owners. As described above, the Trust will recognize the Depository or its nominee as the owner of all Limited Units for all purposes except as expressly set forth in this Trust Agreement. Conveyance of all notices, statements and other
communications to Beneficial Owners will be effected as follows. Pursuant to the Depository Agreement, the Depository is required to make available to the Trust upon request and for a fee to be charged to the Trust a listing of the Limited Unit
holdings of each DTC Participant. The Trust shall inquire of each such DTC Participant as to the number of Beneficial Owners holding Limited Units, directly or indirectly, through such DTC Participant. The Trust shall provide each such DTC
Participant with sufficient copies of such notice, statement or other communication, in such form, number and at such place as such DTC Participant may reasonably request, in order that such notice, statement or communication may be transmitted by
such DTC Participant, directly or indirectly, to such Beneficial Owners. In addition, the Trust shall pay to each such DTC Participant an amount as reimbursement for the expenses attendant to such transmittal, all subject to applicable statutory and
regulatory requirements. 
 (g) Distributions. Distributions on Limited Units pursuant to Section 3.7 shall be made
to the Depository or its nominee, Cede & Co., as the registered owner of all Limited Units. The Trust and the Managing Owner expect that the Depository or its nominee, upon receipt of any payment of distributions in respect of Limited
Units, shall credit immediately DTC Participants’ accounts with payments in amounts proportionate to their respective beneficial interests in Limited Units as shown on the records of the Depository or its nominee. The Trust and the Managing
Owner also expect that payments by DTC Participants to Indirect Participants and Beneficial Owners held through such DTC Participants and Indirect Participants will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices, as is now the case
with securities held for the accounts of customers in bearer form or registered in a “street name,” and will be the responsibility of such DTC Participants and Indirect Participants. None of the Trust, the Trustee or the Managing Owner
will have any responsibility or liability for any aspects of the records relating to or notices to Beneficial Owners, or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests in Limited Units, or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any
records relating to such beneficial ownership interests or for any other aspect of the relationship between the Depository and the DTC Participants or the relationship between such DTC Participants and the Indirect Participants and Beneficial Owners
owning through such DTC Participants or Indirect Participants or between or among the Depository, any Beneficial Owner and any person by or through which such Beneficial Owner is considered to own Limited Units.

 (h) Limitation of Liability. Each Global Security to be issued hereunder is executed
and delivered solely on behalf of the Trust by the Managing Owner, as Managing Owner, in the exercise of the powers and authority conferred and vested in it by this Trust Agreement. The representations, undertakings and agreements made on the part
of the Trust in each Global Security are made and intended not as personal representations, undertakings and agreements by the Managing Owner or the Trustee, but are made and intended for the purpose of binding only the Trust. Nothing in the Global
Security shall be construed as creating any liability of the Managing Owner or the Trustee, individually or personally, to fulfill any representation, undertaking or agreement other than as provided in this Trust Agreement. 

(i) Successor Depository. If a successor to The Depository Trust Company shall be employed as Depository hereunder, the Trust and
the Managing Owner shall establish procedures acceptable to such successor with respect to the matters addressed in this Section 3.4. 
 SECTION 3.5. Assets of the Trust. All consideration received by the Trust for the issue or sale of Units together with all of the Trust Estate in which such consideration is invested or reinvested,
all income, earnings, profits, and proceeds thereof, including any proceeds derived from the sale, exchange or liquidation of such assets, and any funds or payments derived from any reinvestment of such proceeds in whatever form the same may be,
shall irrevocably belong to the Trust for all purposes, subject only to the rights of creditors of the Trust and except as may otherwise be required by applicable tax laws, and shall be so recorded upon the books of account of the Trust. 

SECTION 3.6. Liabilities of the Trust. The Trust Estate shall be charged with the liabilities of the Trust. The Managing Owner
shall have full discretion, to the extent not inconsistent with applicable law, to determine which items shall be treated as income and which items as capital, and each such determination and allocation shall be conclusive and binding upon the
Unitholders. 
 SECTION 3.7. Distributions. 
 (a) Distributions on Units may be paid with such frequency as the Managing Owner may determine, which may be daily or otherwise, to the Unitholders, from such of the income and capital gains, accrued or
realized, from the Trust Estate, after providing for actual and accrued liabilities. All distributions on Units thereof shall be distributed pro rata to the Unitholders in proportion to the total outstanding Units held by such
Unitholders at the date and time of record established for the payment of such distribution and in accordance with Section 3.4(g). Such distributions may be made in cash or Units as determined by the Managing Owner or pursuant to any program
that the Managing Owner may have in effect at the time for the election by each Unitholder of the mode of the making of such distribution to that Unitholder. 
 (b) The Units shall represent units of beneficial interest in the Trust Estate. Each Unitholder shall be entitled to receive its pro rata share of distributions of income and capital gains in
accordance with Section 3.7(a). 

  
 20 

 SECTION 3.8. Voting Rights. Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, on each
matter submitted to a vote of the Unitholders, each Unitholder shall be entitled to a proportionate vote based upon the product of the Net Asset Value Per Unit multiplied by the number of Units, or fraction thereof, standing in its name on the books
of the Trust in accordance with Section 3.4(d). 
 SECTION 3.9. Equality. Except as provided herein, all Units shall
represent an equal proportionate beneficial interest in the assets of the Trust subject to the liabilities of the Trust, and each Unit shall be equal to each other Unit. The Managing Owner may from time to time divide or combine the Units into a
greater or lesser number of Units without thereby changing the proportionate beneficial interest in the assets of the Trust or in any way affecting the rights of Unitholders. 
 ARTICLE IV

individuals employed thereby); (B) the terms and conditions of the agreement pursuant to which such Affiliate is to perform services for the Trust are no less favorable to the Trust than could be obtained from equally-qualified unaffiliated

 (g) Monitor
the brokerage fees charged to the Trust, and the services rendered by futures commission merchants to the Trust, to determine whether the fees paid by, and the services rendered to, the Trust for futures brokerage are at competitive rates and are

rights as set forth in Section 7.1 hereof;

 SECTION 4.5. Liability of Covered Persons. A Covered Person shall have no
liability to the Trust or to any Unitholder or other Covered Person for any loss suffered by the Trust which arises out of any action or inaction of such Covered Person if such Covered Person, in good faith, determined that such course of conduct
was in the best interest of the Trust and such course of conduct did not constitute negligence or misconduct of such Covered Person. Subject to the foregoing, neither the Managing Owner nor any other Covered Person shall be personally liable for the
return or repayment of all or any portion of the capital or profits of any Limited Owner or assignee thereof, it being expressly agreed that any such return of capital or profits made pursuant to this Trust Agreement shall be made solely from the
assets of the Trust without any rights of contribution from the Managing Owner or any other Covered Person. A Covered Person shall not be liable for the conduct or misconduct of any Administrator or other delegatee selected by the Managing Owner
with reasonable care. 
 SECTION 4.6. Fiduciary Duty. 

(a) To the extent that, at law or in equity, the Managing Owner has duties (including fiduciary duties) and liabilities relating thereto
to the Trust, the Unitholders or to any other Person, the Managing Owner acting under this Trust Agreement shall not be liable to the Trust, the Unitholders or to any other Person for its good faith reliance on the provisions of this Trust Agreement
subject to the standard of care in Section 4.5 herein. The provisions of this Trust Agreement, to the extent that they restrict the duties and liabilities of the Managing Owner otherwise existing at law or in equity, are agreed by the parties
hereto to replace such other duties and liabilities of the Managing Owner. Any material changes in the Trust’s basic investment policies or structure shall occur only upon the written approval or affirmative vote of Limited Owners holding Units
equal to at least a majority (over 50%) of the Net Asset Value 

  
 25 

 
(excluding Units held by the Managing Owner and its Affiliates) of the Trust pursuant to Section 11.1(a) below. 
 (b) Unless otherwise expressly provided herein: 
 (i) whenever a
conflict of interest exists or arises between the Managing Owner or any of its Affiliates, on the one hand, and the Trust or any Unitholder or any other Person, on the other hand; or 

(ii) whenever this Trust Agreement or any other agreement contemplated herein or therein provides that the Managing Owner
shall act in a manner that is, or provides terms that are, fair and reasonable to the Trust, any Unitholder or any other Person, 
 the Managing
Owner shall resolve such conflict of interest, take such action or provide such terms, considering in each case the relative interest of each party (including its own interest) to such conflict, agreement, transaction or situation and the benefits
and burdens relating to such interests, any customary or accepted industry practices, and any applicable generally accepted accounting practices or principles. In the absence of bad faith by the Managing Owner, the resolution, action or terms so
made, taken or provided by the Managing Owner shall not constitute a breach of this Trust Agreement or any other agreement contemplated herein or of any duty or obligation of the Managing Owner at law or in equity or otherwise. 

(c) The Managing Owner and any Affiliate of the Managing Owner may engage in or possess an interest in other profit-seeking or business
ventures of any nature or description, independently or with others, whether or not such ventures are competitive with the Trust and the doctrine of corporate opportunity, or any analogous doctrine, shall not apply to the Managing Owner. If the
Managing Owner acquires knowledge of a potential transaction, agreement, arrangement or other matter that may be an opportunity for the Trust, it shall have no duty to communicate or offer such opportunity to the Trust, and the Managing Owner shall
not be liable to the Trust or to the Unitholders for breach of any fiduciary or other duty by reason of the fact that the Managing Owner pursues or acquires for, or directs such opportunity to another Person or does not communicate such opportunity
or information to the Trust. Neither the Trust nor any Unitholder shall have any rights or obligations by virtue of this Trust Agreement or the trust relationship created hereby in or to such independent ventures or the income or profits or losses
derived therefrom, and the pursuit of such ventures, even if competitive with the activities of the Trust, shall not be deemed wrongful or improper. Except to the extent expressly provided herein, the Managing Owner may engage or be interested in
any financial or other transaction with the Trust, the Unitholders or any Affiliate of the Trust or the Unitholders. 
 SECTION
4.7. Indemnification of the Managing Owner. 
 (a) The Managing Owner shall be indemnified by the Trust against any
losses, judgments, liabilities, expenses and amounts paid in settlement of any claims sustained by it in connection with its activities for the Trust, provided that (i) the Managing Owner was acting on behalf of or performing services for the
Trust and has determined, in good faith, that such course of conduct was in the best interests of the Trust and such liability or loss was not the result of 

  
 26 

 
negligence, misconduct, or a breach of this Trust Agreement on the part of the Managing Owner and (ii) any such indemnification will only be recoverable from the Trust Estate. All rights to
indemnification permitted herein and payment of associated expenses shall not be affected by the dissolution or other cessation to exist of the Managing Owner, or the withdrawal, adjudication of bankruptcy or insolvency of the Managing Owner, or the
filing of a voluntary or involuntary petition in bankruptcy under Title 11 of the Code by or against the Managing Owner. The source of payments made in respect of indemnification under this Trust Agreement shall be the assets of the Trust.

 (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 4.7(a) above, the Managing Owner and any Person acting as broker-dealer
for the Trust shall not be indemnified for any losses, liabilities or expenses arising from or out of an alleged violation of U.S. federal or state securities laws unless (i) there has been a successful adjudication on the merits of each
count involving alleged securities law violations as to the particular indemnitee and the court approves the indemnification of such expenses (including, without limitation, litigation costs), (ii) such claims have been dismissed with prejudice
on the merits by a court of competent jurisdiction as to the particular indemnitee and the court approves the indemnification of such expenses (including, without limitation, litigation costs) or (iii) a court of competent jurisdiction approves
a settlement of the claims against a particular indemnitee and finds that indemnification of the settlement and related costs should be made. 
 (c) The Trust shall not incur the cost of that portion of any insurance which insures any party against any liability, the indemnification of which is herein prohibited. 

(d) Expenses incurred in defending a threatened or pending civil, administrative or criminal action suit or proceeding against the
Managing Owner shall be paid by the Trust in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding, if (i) the legal action relates to the performance of duties or services by the Managing Owner on behalf of the Trust;
(ii) the legal action is initiated by a third party who is not a Limited Owner or the legal action is initiated by a Limited Owner and a court of competent jurisdiction specifically approves such advance; and (iii) the Managing Owner
undertakes to repay the advanced funds with interest to the Trust in cases in which it is not entitled to indemnification under this Section 4.7. 
 (e) The term “Managing Owner” as used only in this Section 4.7 shall include, in addition to the Managing Owner, any other Covered Person performing services on behalf of the Trust and
acting within the scope of the Managing Owner’s authority as set forth in this Trust Agreement. 
 (f) In the event the
Trust is made a party to any claim, dispute, demand or litigation or otherwise incurs any loss, liability, damage, cost or expense as a result of or in connection with any Limited Owner’s (or assignee’s) obligations or liabilities
unrelated to Trust business, such Limited Owner (or assignees cumulatively) shall indemnify, defend, hold harmless, and reimburse the Trust for all such loss, liability, damage, cost and expense incurred, including attorneys’ and
accountants’ fees. 

  
 27

Continuous Offering, (E) accounting, auditing and legal fees (including disbursements related thereto) incurred in connection therewith. However, such Organization and Offering Expenses shall exclude any extraordinary expenses (including, but
not limited to, legal claims and liabilities and litigation costs and any permitted indemnification associated therewith) related thereto.

Trust generally, if any, as determined by the Managing Owner. Extraordinary fees and expenses shall include, but not be limited to, fees and expenses which are non-recurring and unusual in nature, such as legal claims and liabilities and litigation
costs or indemnification or other unanticipated expenses. Extraordinary fees and expenses shall also include material expenses which are not currently anticipated obligations of the Trust or of managed futures trusts in general. Routine

  
 28 

 
operational, administrative and other ordinary expenses will not be deemed extraordinary fees and expenses. 
 (c) Brokerage Commissions and Fees. The Trust shall pay to the Commodity Broker all brokerage commissions, including applicable exchange fees, NFA fees, give-up fees, pit brokerage fees and other
transaction related fees and expenses charged in connection with its trading activities. 
 (d) The Managing Owner or any
Affiliate of the Managing Owner may only be reimbursed for the actual cost to the Managing Owner or such Affiliate of any expenses which it advances on behalf of the Trust for which payment the Trust is responsible. In addition, payment to the
Managing Owner or such Affiliate for indirect expenses incurred in performing services for the Trust in its capacity as the managing owner of the Trust, such as salaries and fringe benefits of officers and directors, rent or depreciation, utilities
and other administrative items generally falling within the category of the Managing Owner’s “overhead,” is prohibited. 
 SECTION 4.9. Compensation of the Managing Owner. The Managing Owner shall be entitled to compensation for its services as managing owner of the Trust as set forth in the Prospectus (the
“Management Fee”). 
 SECTION 4.10. Other Business of Unitholders. Except as otherwise specifically
provided herein, any of the Unitholders and any shareholder, officer, director, employee or other person holding a legal or beneficial interest in an entity which is a Unitholder, may engage in or possess an interest in other business ventures of
every nature and description, independently or with others, and the pursuit of such ventures, even if competitive with the business of the Trust, shall not be deemed wrongful or improper. 

SECTION 4.11. Voluntary Withdrawal of the Managing Owner. The Managing Owner may withdraw voluntarily as the Managing Owner of the
Trust only upon one hundred and twenty (120) days’ prior written notice to all Limited Owners and the Trustee. If the withdrawing Managing Owner is the last remaining Managing Owner, Limited Owners holding Units equal to at least a
majority (over 50%) of the Trust’s aggregate Net Asset Value (excluding Units held by the Managing Owner) may vote to elect and appoint, effective as of a date on or prior to the withdrawal, a successor Managing Owner who shall carry on the
business of the Trust. In the event of its removal or withdrawal, the Managing Owner shall be entitled to a redemption of its Units at their respective Net Asset Value. If the Managing Owner withdraws and a successor Managing Owner is named, the
withdrawing Managing Owner shall pay all expenses as a result of its withdrawal. 
 SECTION 4.12. Authorization of Acts
Described in a Registration Statement. Each Limited Owner (or any permitted assignee thereof) hereby agrees that the Trust, the Managing Owner and the Trustee are authorized to execute, deliver and perform the agreements, acts, transactions and
matters contemplated hereby or described in or contemplated by the Registration Statements on behalf of the Trust without any further act, approval or vote of the Limited Owners of the Trust, notwithstanding any other provision of this Trust
Agreement, the Delaware Trust Statute or any applicable law, rule or regulation. 

  
 29 

 SECTION 4.13. Litigation. The Managing Owner is hereby authorized to prosecute,
defend, settle or compromise actions or claims at law or in equity as may be necessary or proper to enforce or protect the Trust’s interests. The Managing Owner shall satisfy any judgment, decree or decision of any court, board or authority
having jurisdiction or any settlement of any suit or claim prior to judgment or final decision thereon, first, out of any insurance proceeds available therefor, next, out of the Trust’s assets and, thereafter, out of the assets (to the extent
that it is permitted to do so under the various other provisions of this Trust Agreement) of the Managing Owner. 
 ARTICLE V

 TRANSFERS OF UNITS 
 SECTION 5.1. General Prohibition. To the fullest extent permitted by law, a Limited Owner may not sell, assign, transfer or otherwise dispose of, or pledge, hypothecate or in any manner encumber
any or all of his Units or any part of his right, title and interest in the capital or profits in the Trust except as permitted in this Article V and any act in violation of this Article V shall not be binding upon or recognized by the
Trust (regardless of whether the Managing Owner shall have knowledge thereof), unless approved in writing by the Managing Owner. 
 SECTION 5.2. Transfer of Managing Owner’s General Units. 
 (a) Upon an
Event of Withdrawal (as defined in Section 13.1), the Managing Owner’s General Units shall be purchased by the Trust for a purchase price in cash equal to the Net Asset Value thereof. The Managing Owner will not cease to be a Managing
Owner of the Trust merely upon the occurrence of its making an assignment for the benefit of creditors, filing a voluntary petition in bankruptcy, filing a petition or answer seeking for itself any reorganization, arrangement, composition,
readjustment, liquidation, dissolution or similar relief under any statute, law or regulation, filing an answer or other pleading admitting or failing to contest material allegations of a petition filed against it in any proceeding of this nature or
seeking, consenting to or acquiescing in the appointment of a trustee, receiver or liquidator for itself or of all or any substantial part of its properties. 
 (b) To the full extent permitted by law, and on sixty (60) days’ prior written notice to the Limited Owners, of their right to vote thereon, if the transaction is other than with an Affiliated
entity, nothing in this Trust Agreement shall be deemed to prevent the merger of the Managing Owner with another corporation or other entity, the reorganization of the Managing Owner into or with any other corporation or other entity, the transfer
of all the capital stock of the Managing Owner or the assumption of the rights, duties and liabilities of the Managing Owner by, in the case of a merger, reorganization or consolidation, the surviving corporation or other entity by operation of law
or the transfer of the Managing Owner’s Units to an Affiliate of the Managing Owner. Without limiting the foregoing, none of the transactions referenced in the preceding sentence shall be deemed to be a voluntary withdrawal for purposes of
Section 4.11 or an Event of Withdrawal or assignment of Units for purposes of Sections 5.2(a) or 5.2(c).

 (c) Upon assignment of all of its Units, the Managing Owner shall not cease (x) to be a
Managing Owner of the Trust, or (y) to have the power to exercise any rights or powers as a Managing Owner, or (z) to have liability for the obligation of the Trust under Section 1.7 hereof, until an additional Managing Owner, who
shall carry on the business of the Trust, has been admitted to the Trust.

ARTICLE VI 

CAPITAL ACCOUNTS; ALLOCATIONS AND DISTRIBUTIONS 
 SECTION 6.1. Capital Accounts. The Trust shall maintain for each Unitholder (which includes beneficial owners of Units where information regarding the identity of such owner has been furnished to
the Trust in accordance with section 6031(c) of the Code or any other method acceptable to the Managing Owner in its sole discretion) owning a Unit a separate Capital Account with respect to such Unit in accordance with the rules of Treasury
Regulation section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv). The initial balance of each Unitholder’s book capital account shall be the amount of its initial Capital Contribution. Such Capital Account shall be (i) increased by the amount of all Capital
Contributions made with respect to the Unit and all items of income and gain with respect to the Trust computed and allocated to the Unitholder’s Units in accordance with this Trust Agreement and (ii) decreased by the amount of cash
distributions made with respect to the Unit and all items of deduction and loss with respect to the Trust computed and allocated in accordance with this Trust Agreement. 
 (a) Consistent with the provisions of Treasury Regulation section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f), upon an issuance of additional Units with respect to the Trust for cash, the Capital Accounts of all
Unitholders with respect to the Trust shall, immediately prior to such issuances, be adjusted (consistent with the provisions hereof) upwards or downwards to reflect any Unrealized Gain or Unrealized Loss attributable to the Trust property, as if
such Unrealized Gain or Unrealized Loss had been recognized upon an actual sale of each such property, immediately prior to such issuance, and had been allocated to its Unitholders at such time pursuant to Section 6.3. 

(b) In accordance with Treasury Regulation section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(f), immediately prior to the distribution of cash in redemption
of all or a portion of a Unitholder’s Units, the capital accounts of all Unitholders with respect to the Trust shall, immediately prior to any such distribution, be adjusted (consistent with the provisions hereof) upward or downward to reflect
any Unrealized Gain or Unrealized Loss attributable to Trust property, as if such Unrealized Gain or Unrealized Loss had been recognized upon an actual sale of each such property, immediately prior to such distribution, and had been allocated to the
Unitholders at such time pursuant to Section 6.3. 

  
 31 

 SECTION 6.2. Periodic Closing of Books. Within forty-five (45) days after the
end of each calendar month (or such other period as the Managing Owner may determine in its sole discretion) or such shorter period as required for the final closing of the books for the taxable year, the Trust shall conduct an interim closing of
the books of the Trust as of the end of the last day of that calendar month (or such other period as the Managing Owner may determine in its sole discretion). On the basis of the closing of the books for each calendar month (or such other period as
the Managing Owner may determine in its sole discretion), the Trust shall determine the amount of Profit and Loss of the Trust attributable to that calendar month (or such other period as the Managing Owner may determine in its sole discretion).
Trust Profits and Losses shall be determined in accordance with the accounting methods followed by the Trust for U.S. federal income tax purposes. 
 SECTION 6.3. Periodic Allocations. All allocations to Unitholders of items included within the Trust’s Profits and Losses attributable to each calendar month (or such other periods as the
Managing Owner may determine in its sole discretion) shall be allocated solely among the Unitholders recognized as Unitholders as of the close of the last trading day of the preceding month (or the last trading day of such other period as the
Managing Owner may determine in its sole discretion), as follows: 
 (a) For purposes of maintaining the Capital Accounts and in
determining the rights of the Unitholders among themselves, except as otherwise provided in this Article VI, each item of income, gain, loss and deduction shall be allocated among Unitholders in accordance with their respective Percentage
Interests. 
 (b) Any item of loss or deduction otherwise allocated to the Managing Owner pursuant to Section 6.3 which is
in excess of such Managing Owner’s positive Adjusted Capital Account balance (following adjustment to reflect the allocation of all other items for such period) shall instead be allocated to the other Unitholders in accordance with their
respective Percentage Interests to the extent such item of loss or deduction exceeds such Managing Owner’s Adjusted Capital Account balance; provided that the allocation of any such item to such other Unitholders shall only be made hereunder to
the extent the allocation would not result in or increase a negative balance in the Adjusted Capital Account of such other Unitholders. If such an allocation occurs, items of income or gain that would otherwise be allocated to the Managing Owner
equal to the amount of such allocated loss or deduction will be allocated to the other Unitholders in accordance with their Percentage Interests as quickly as possible. 
 (c) If any Unitholder unexpectedly receives any adjustments, allocations or distributions described in Treasury Regulation sections 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d)(4), (5) or (6), items of Trust income and gain
shall be specially allocated to such Unitholder in an amount and manner sufficient to eliminate a deficit in its Adjusted Capital Account created by such adjustments, allocations or distributions as quickly as possible. This Section 6.3(c) is
intended to constitute a “qualified income offset” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d). 
 (d) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Trust Agreement, upon or prior to the issuance of additional Units, the Managing Owner shall have the sole and complete discretion, without the approval of
any other Unitholder, to amend any provision of this 

  
 32 

 
Article VI in any manner, as is necessary, appropriate or advisable to comply with any current or future provisions of the Code or the Treasury Regulations or to implement the terms and
conditions of any Units. 
 SECTION 6.4. Code Section 754 Adjustments. To the extent an adjustment to the tax basis
of any Trust asset pursuant to Section 743(b) or 743(c) of the Code is required, pursuant to Treasury Regulation section 1.704-1(b)(2)(iv)(m), to be taken into account in determining Capital Accounts, the amount of such adjustment to the
Capital Accounts shall be treated as an item of gain (if the adjustment increases the basis of the asset) or loss (if the adjustment decreases such basis) and such item of gain or loss shall be specially allocated to the Unitholders in a manner
consistent with the manner in which their Capital Accounts are required to be adjusted pursuant to such regulation. For purposes of computing the adjustments under section 743(b) of the Code, the Trust is authorized (but not required), in the
Managing Owner’s sole and complete discretion, to adopt a convention whereby the price paid by a transferee of Units will be deemed to be the weighted average closing price of the Units of the Trust on the Exchange during the calendar month in
which such transfer is deemed to occur pursuant to Section 5.3 without regard to the actual price paid by the transferee (or any other convention as the Managing Owner may determine in its sole and complete discretion). 

SECTION 6.5. Allocation of Profit and Loss for U.S. Federal Income Tax Purposes. 

(a) Except as otherwise provided, each item of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit of the Trust shall be allocated among the
Unitholders in accordance with their respective Percentage Interests. 
 (b) In an attempt to eliminate Book-Tax Disparities
attributable to Adjusted Property, items of income, gain, and loss will be allocated for U.S. federal income tax purposes among the Unitholders as follows: 
 (i) Items attributable to an Adjusted Property will be allocated among the Unitholders in a manner consistent with the principles of section 704(c) of the Code to take into account the Unrealized
Gain or Loss attributable to the property and the allocations thereof pursuant to Section 6.3(a) and (b). 
 (ii)
Any items of income, gain, loss or deduction otherwise allocable under this Section 6.5 shall be subject to allocation by the Managing Owner in a manner designed to eliminate, to the maximum extent possible, Book-Tax Disparities in an Adjusted
Property otherwise resulting from the application of the ceiling limitation under section 704(c) principles to the allocations provided under this Section. 
 (iii) Subject to this Section 6.5(b), any items of income, gain, loss or deduction otherwise allocable to the Managing Owner pursuant to Section 6.3(a) that constitutes the tax corollary of an
item of “book” income, gain, loss or deduction that has been allocated to such other Unitholders pursuant to Section 6.3(b) shall be allocated to the other Unitholders in the same manner and to the same extent provided in this
Section 6.5(b). 

  
 33 

 (iv) If any Unitholder unexpectedly receives any adjustments, allocations or
distributions described in Treasury Regulation section 1.704-1(b)(2)(ii)(d), items of income and gain shall be specially allocated to such Unitholder in an amount and manner consistent with the allocations of income and gain pursuant to
Section 6.3(c). 
 (c) The allocation of income and loss (and items thereof) for U.S. federal income tax purposes set
forth in this Section 6.5 is intended to allocate taxable income and loss among Unitholders generally in the ratio and to the extent that net profit and net loss shall be allocated to such Unitholders under Section 6.3 so as to eliminate,
to the extent possible, any disparity between a Unitholder’s book capital account and his tax capital account, consistent with the principles set forth in Sections 704(b) and (c)(2) of the Code. 

(d) Notwithstanding this Section 6.5, if after taking into account any distributions to be made with respect to such Unit for the
relevant period pursuant to Section 6.7 herein, any allocation would produce a deficit in the book capital account of a Unit, the portion of such allocation that would create such a deficit shall instead be allocated pro rata to the book
capital accounts of all the remaining Unitholders in the Trust (subject to the same limitation). 
 SECTION 6.6. Effect of
Section 754 Election. All items of income, gain, loss, deduction and credit recognized by the Trust for U.S. federal income tax purposes and allocated to Unitholders in accordance with the provisions of this Trust Agreement shall be
determined without regard to any election under section 754 of the Code which may be made by the Trust; provided, however, that such allocations, once made, shall be adjusted as necessary or appropriate to take into account those adjustments
permitted or required by sections 734 or 743 of the Code. 
 SECTION 6.7. Allocation of Distributions. Initially,
distributions shall be made by the Managing Owner, and the Managing Owner shall have sole discretion in determining the amount and frequency of distributions, other than redemptions, with respect to the Units; provided, however, that no distribution
shall be made that violates the Delaware Trust Statute. The aggregate distributions made in a Fiscal Year (other than distributions on termination, which shall be allocated in the manner described in Article XIII) shall be allocated among the
holders of record of Units in the ratio in which the number of Units held of record by each of them bears to the number of Units held of record by all of the Unitholders as of the record date of such distribution; provided, further, however, that
any distribution made in respect of a Unit shall not exceed the book capital account for such Unit. 
 SECTION 6.8.
Admissions of Unitholders; Transfers. For purposes of this Article VI, items of the Trust’s income, gain, loss, deduction and credit attributable to a transferred Unit shall, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, be determined
on an annual basis and prorated on a monthly basis (or other basis, as required or permitted by section 706 of the Code) and shall be allocated to such Unitholders who own the Units as of the close of the NYSE Arca on the last day of the month
in which the transfer is recognized by the Trust; provided that, gain or loss on the sale or other disposition of all or a substantial portion of the assets of the Trust shall be allocated to the Unitholders who own Units as of the close of the NYSE
Arca on the last day of the month in which such gain or loss is recognized for federal income tax purposes. The Managing Owner may revise, alter or otherwise modify such methods of determination and

  
 34 

 
allocation as it determines necessary, to the extent permitted by section 706 of the Code and the regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder. 

SECTION 6.9. Liability for State and Local and Other Taxes. In the event that the Trust shall be separately subject to taxation by
any state or local or by any foreign taxing authority, the Trust shall be obligated to pay such taxes to such jurisdiction. In the event that the Trust shall be required to make payments to any U.S. federal, state or local or any foreign taxing
authority in respect of any Unitholder’s allocable share of income, the amount of such taxes shall be considered a loan by the Trust to such Unitholder, and such Unitholder shall be liable for, and shall pay to the Trust, any taxes so required
to be withheld and paid over by the Trust within ten (10) days after the Managing Owner’s request therefor. Such Unitholder shall also be liable for (and the Managing Owner shall be entitled to redeem additional Units of the foreign
Unitholder as necessary to satisfy) interest on the amount of taxes paid over by the Trust to the IRS or other taxing authority, from the date of the Managing Owner’s request for payment to the date of payment or the redemption, as the case may
be, at the rate of two percent (2%) over the prime rate charged from time to time by Citibank, N.A. The amount, if any, payable by the Trust to the Unitholder in respect of its Units so redeemed, or in respect of any other actual distribution
by the Trust to such Unitholder, shall be reduced by any obligations owed to the Trust by the Unitholder, including, without limitation, the amount of any taxes required to be paid over by the Trust to the IRS or other taxing authority and interest
thereon as aforesaid. Amounts, if any, deducted by the Trust from any actual distribution or redemption payment to such Unitholder shall be treated as an actual distribution to such Unitholder for all purposes of this Trust Agreement. 

SECTION 6.10. Consent to Methods. The methods set forth in this Article VI by which Distributions are made and items of
Profit and Losses are allocated are hereby expressly consented to by each Unitholder as an express condition to becoming a Unitholder. 
 ARTICLE VII 
 REDEMPTIONS 

SECTION 7.1. Redemption of Redemption Baskets. The following procedures, as supplemented by the more detailed procedures
specified in the attachment to the Participant Agreement, which may be amended from time to time in accordance with the provisions of the Participant Agreement (and any such amendment will not constitute an amendment of this Trust Agreement), will
govern the Trust with respect to the redemption of Redemption Baskets. 
 (a) On any Business Day, a Participant with respect to
which a Participant Agreement is in full force and effect (as reflected on the list maintained by the Managing Owner pursuant to Section 3.3(a)(i)) may redeem one or more Redemption Baskets standing to the credit of the Participant on the
records of the Depository by delivering a request for redemption to the Managing Owner (such request, a “Redemption Order”) in the manner specified in the procedures specified in the attachment to the Participant Agreement, as
amended from time to time in accordance with the provisions of the Participant Agreement (and any such amendment will not constitute an amendment of this Trust Agreement). 

  
 35 

 (b) To be effective, a Redemption Order must be submitted on a Business Day by the Order
Cut-Off Time in form satisfactory to the Managing Owner (the Business Day on which the Redemption Order is so submitted, the “Redemption Order Date”). The Managing Owner shall reject any Redemption Order the fulfillment of which its
counsel advises may be illegal under applicable laws and regulations, and the Managing Owner shall have no liability to any person for rejecting a Redemption Order in such circumstances. 

(c) Subject to deduction of any tax or other governmental charges due thereon, the redemption distribution (“Redemption
Distribution”) shall consist of cash in an amount equal to the product obtained by multiplying (i) the number of Redemption Baskets set forth in the relevant Redemption Order by (ii) the Net Asset Value Per Basket as of the
closing time of the Exchange or the last to close of the exchanges on which any of the Trust’s assets are traded, whichever is later, on the Redemption Order Date. 
 (d) Within three Business Days immediately following the Redemption Order Date (the “Redemption Settlement Time”), if the Managing Owner’s account at the Depository has by such time
as provided in the Participant Agreement, on such day been credited with the Redemption Baskets being tendered for redemption and the Managing Owner has by such time received the Transaction Fee, the Managing Owner shall deliver the Redemption
Distribution through the Depository to the account of the Participant as recorded on the book entry system of the Depository. If by such Redemption Settlement Time the Managing Owner has not received from a redeeming Participant all Redemption
Baskets comprising the Redemption Order, the Managing Owner will (i) settle the Redemption Order to the extent of whole Redemption Baskets received from the Participant and (ii) keep the redeeming Participant’s Redemption Order open
until such time as provided in the Participant Agreement, on the first Business Day following the Redemption Settlement Date as to the balance of the Redemption Order (such balance, the “Suspended Redemption Order”). If the
Redemption Basket(s) comprising the Suspended Redemption Order are credited to the Managing Owner’s account at the Depository by such time as provided in the Participant Agreement, on such following Business Day, the Redemption Distribution
with respect to the Suspended Redemption Order shall be paid in the manner provided in the second preceding sentence. If by such Redemption Settlement Time the Managing Owner has not received from the redeeming Participant all Redemption Baskets
comprising the Suspended Redemption Order, the Managing Owner will settle the Suspended Redemption Order to the extent of whole Redemption Baskets then received and any balance of the Suspended Redemption will be cancelled. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, when and under such conditions as the Managing Owner may from time to time determine, the Managing Owner shall be authorized to deliver the Redemption Distribution notwithstanding that a Redemption Basket has not been credited to the
Trust’s account at the Depository if the Participant has collateralized its obligation to deliver the Redemption Basket on such terms as the Managing Owner may, in its sole discretion, from time to time agree. 

(e) The Managing Owner may, in its discretion, suspend the right of redemption, or postpone the Redemption Settlement Date, (i) for
any period during which the Exchange is closed other than customary weekend or holiday closings, or trading is suspended or restricted; (ii) for any period during which an emergency exists as a result of which delivery, disposal or evaluation
of the Trust’s assets is not reasonably practicable; or (iii) for such other period as the Managing Owner determines to be necessary for the protection of Beneficial 

  
 36 

 
Owners. The Managing Owner is not liable to any person or in any way for any loss or damages that may result from any such suspension or postponement. 

(f) Redemption Baskets effectively redeemed pursuant to the provisions of this Section 7.1 shall be cancelled by the Trust in
accordance with the Depository’s procedures. 
 SECTION 7.2. Other Redemption Procedures. The Managing Owner
from time to time may, but shall have no obligation to, establish procedures with respect to redemption of Limited Units in lot sizes smaller than the Redemption Basket and permitting the Redemption Distribution to be in a form, and delivered in a
manner, other than that specified in Section 7.1. 
 ARTICLE VIII 

THE LIMITED OWNERS 
 SECTION 8.1. No Management or Control; Limited Liability; Exercise of Rights through DTC. The Limited Owners shall not participate in the management or control of the Trust’s business nor
shall they transact any business for the Trust or have the power to sign for or bind the Trust, said power being vested solely and exclusively in the Managing Owner. Except as provided in Section 8.3 hereof, no Limited Owner shall be bound by,
or be personally liable for, the expenses, liabilities or obligations of the Trust in excess of its Capital Contribution plus its share of the Trust Estate and profits remaining, if any. Except as provided in Section 8.3 hereof, each Limited
Unit owned by a Limited Owner shall be fully paid and no assessment shall be made against any Limited Owner. No salary shall be paid to any Limited Owner in its capacity as a Limited Owner, nor shall any Limited Owner have a drawing account or earn
interest on its Capital Contribution. By the purchase and acceptance or other lawful delivery and acceptance of Limited Units, each Beneficial Owner shall be deemed to be a Limited Owner and beneficiary of the Trust and vested with beneficial
undivided interest in the Trust to the extent of the Limited Units owned beneficially by such Beneficial Owner, subject to the terms and conditions of this Trust Agreement. The rights of Beneficial Owners under this Trust Agreement must be exercised
by DTC Participants, or Indirect Participants, as applicable, acting on their behalf in accordance with the rules and procedures of the Depository, as provided in Section 3.4. 

SECTION 8.2. Rights and Duties. The Limited Owners shall have the following rights, powers, privileges, duties and liabilities:

 (a) The Limited Owners shall have the right to obtain from the Managing Owner information on all things affecting the Trust,
provided that such is for a purpose reasonably related to the Limited Owner’s interest as a beneficial owner of the Trust, including, without limitation, such reports as are set forth in Article IX and the list of Participants contemplated
by Section 3.3(a)(i). In the event that the Managing Owner neglects or refuses to produce or mail to a Limited Owner a copy of the list of Participants contemplated by Section 3.3(a)(i), the Managing Owner shall be liable to such Limited
Owner for the costs, including reasonable attorney’s fees, incurred by such Limited Owner to compel the production of such information, and for any actual damages suffered by such Limited Owner as a result of such refusal or neglect;
provided, however, it shall be a defense of the Managing Owner that the actual purpose of the Limited Owner’s request for such information was not reasonably related to 

  
 37 

 
the Limited Owner’s interest as a beneficial owner in the Trust (e.g., to secure such information in order to sell it, or to use the same for a commercial purpose unrelated to the
participation of such Limited Owner in the Trust). The foregoing rights are in addition to, and do not limit, other remedies available to Limited Owners under U.S. federal or state law. 

(b) The Limited Owners shall receive the share of the distributions provided for in this Trust Agreement in the manner and at the times
provided for in this Trust Agreement. 
 (c) Except for the Limited Owners’ redemption rights set forth in Article VII
hereof, the Limited Owners shall have the right to demand the return of their Capital Account only upon the dissolution and winding up of the Trust and only to the extent of funds available therefor. In no event shall a Limited Owner be entitled to
demand or receive property other than cash. No Limited Owner shall have priority over any other Limited Owner either as to the return of capital or as to profits, losses or distributions. The Limited Owners shall not have any right to bring an
action for partition against the Trust. 
 (d) Limited Owners holding Units representing at least a majority (over 50%) in Net
Asset Value (not including Units held by the Managing Owner and its Affiliates) may vote to (i) continue the Trust as provided in Section 13.1(a), (ii) remove the Managing Owner on prior written notice to the Managing Owner,
(iii) elect and appoint one or more additional Managing Owners, or consent to such matters as are set forth in Section 5.2(b), (iv) approve a material change in the trading policies, as set forth in the Prospectus, which change shall
not be effective without the prior written approval of such majority, (v) approve the termination of any agreement entered into between the Trust and the Managing Owner or any Affiliate of the Managing Owner for any reason, without penalty, on
prior written notice to the Managing Owner, (vi) approve amendments to this Trust Agreement as set forth in Section 11.1 hereof, and (vii) terminate the Trust as provided in Section 13.1(e), and in the case of (ii), (iii),
(iv), and (v) in each instance on 10 days’ prior written notice. 
 (e) Certain K-1 Unitholders representing
at least a majority (over 50%) in Net Asset Value (not including Units held by the Managing Owner and its Affiliates) may vote to (i) remove the Tax Agent on prior written notice to the Managing Owner, and (ii) designate a replacement Tax
Agent on prior written notice to the Managing Owner, in each instance on 10 days’ prior written notice. 
 Except as set
forth above, the Limited Owners shall have no voting or other rights with respect to the Trust. 
 SECTION 8.3. Limitation on
Liability. 
 (a) Except as provided in Sections 4.7(f) and 6.2 hereof, and as otherwise provided under Delaware law,
the Limited Owners shall be entitled to the same limitation of personal liability extended to stockholders of private corporations for profit organized under the general corporation law of Delaware and no Limited Owner shall be liable for claims
against, or debts of the Trust in excess of its Capital Contribution and its share of the Trust Estate and undistributed profits, except in the event that the liability is founded upon misstatements or omissions contained in such Limited
Owner’s Participant Agreement delivered in connection 

  
 38 

 
with his purchase of Units. In addition, and subject to the exceptions set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, the Trust shall not make a claim against a Limited Owner with respect to
amounts distributed to such Limited Owner or amounts received by such Limited Owner upon redemption unless, under Delaware law, such Limited Owner is liable to repay such amount. 

(b) The Trust shall indemnify to the full extent permitted by law and the other provisions of this Trust Agreement, and to the extent of
the applicable Trust Estate, each Limited Owner (excluding the Managing Owner to the extent of its ownership of any Limited Units) against any claims of liability asserted against such Limited Owner solely because he is a beneficial owner of one or
more Units as a Limited Owner (other than for taxes for which such Limited Owner is liable under Section 6.2 hereof). 

(c) Every written note, bond, contract, instrument, certificate or undertaking made or issued by the Managing Owner shall give notice to
the effect that the same was executed or made by or on behalf of the Trust and that the obligations of such instrument are not binding upon the Limited Owners individually but are binding only upon the assets and property of the Trust, and no resort
shall be had to the Limited Owners’ personal property for satisfaction of any obligation or claim thereunder, and appropriate references may be made to this Trust Agreement and may contain any further recital which the Managing Owner deems
appropriate, but the omission thereof shall not operate to bind the Limited Owners individually or otherwise invalidate any such note, bond, contract, instrument, certificate or undertaking. Nothing contained in this Section 8.3 shall diminish
the limitation on the liability of the Trust to the extent set forth in Section 3.5 and 3.6 hereof. 
 ARTICLE IX

Years copies of any effective written Trust Agreements, Participant Agreements, including any amendments thereto, and any financial statements of the Trust. The Managing Owner may keep and maintain the books and records of the Trust in paper,
magnetic, electronic or other format at the Managing Owner may determine in its sole discretion, provided the Managing Owner uses reasonable care to prevent the loss or destruction of such records. 

SECTION 9.6. Certificate of Trust. Except as otherwise provided in the Delaware Trust Statute or this Trust Agreement, the
Managing Owner shall not be required to mail a copy of any Certificate of Trust filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware to each Limited Owner; however, such certificates shall be maintained at the principal office of the Trust and
shall be available for inspection and copying by the Limited Owners in accordance with this Trust Agreement.

shall commence on the date of filing of the Certificate of Trust and end on the 31st day of December 2006. If, 

  
 40 

 
after commencement of operations, applicable tax rules require the Trust to adopt a taxable year other than the calendar year, the term “Fiscal Year” for the Trust shall mean such other
taxable year as required by Code Section 706 or an alternative taxable year chosen by the Managing Owner which has been approved by the Internal Revenue Service. The Fiscal Year in which the Trust shall terminate shall end on the date of such
termination. 
 ARTICLE XI 
 AMENDMENT OF TRUST AGREEMENT; MEETINGS 
 SECTION 11.1. Amendments to
this Trust Agreement. 
 (a) Amendments to this Trust Agreement may be proposed by the Managing Owner or by Limited Owners
holding Units equal to at least 10% of the Net Asset Value of the Trust. Following such proposal, the Managing Owner shall submit to the Limited Owners a verbatim statement of any proposed amendment, and statements concerning the legality of such
amendment and the effect of such amendment on the limited liability of the Limited Owners. The Managing Owner shall include in any such submission its recommendations as to the proposed amendment. The amendment shall become effective only upon the
written approval or affirmative vote of Limited Owners holding Units (excluding Units held by the Managing Owner and its Affiliates) equal to at least a majority (over 50%) of the Net Asset Value (excluding Units held by the Managing Owner and its
Affiliates) of the Trust or such higher percentage as may be required by applicable law, and upon receipt of an opinion of independent legal counsel to the effect that the amendment is legal, valid and binding and will not adversely affect the
limitations on liability of the Limited Owners as described in Section 8.3 of this Trust Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, where any action taken or authorized pursuant to any provision of this Trust Agreement requires the approval or
affirmative vote of Limited Owners holding a greater interest in Limited Units than is required to amend this Trust Agreement under this Section 11.1, and/or the approval or affirmative vote of the Managing Owner, an amendment to such
provision(s) shall be effective only upon the written approval or affirmative vote of the minimum number of Unitholders which would be required to take or authorize such action, or as may otherwise be required by applicable law, and upon receipt of
an opinion of independent legal counsel as set forth above in this Section 11.1. In addition, except as otherwise provided below, reduction of the capital account of any assignee or modification of the percentage of Profits, Losses or
distributions to which an assignee is entitled hereunder shall not be affected by amendment to this Trust Agreement without such assignee’s approval. 
 (b) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in Section 11.1(a) hereof, the Managing Owner may, without the approval of the Limited Owners, make such amendments to this Trust Agreement
which (i) are necessary to add to the representations, duties or obligations of the Managing Owner or surrender any right or power granted to the Managing Owner herein, for the benefit of the Limited Owners, (ii) are necessary to cure any
ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provision herein which may be inconsistent with any other provision herein or in the Prospectus, or to make any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under this Trust Agreement or the
Prospectus which will not be inconsistent with the provisions of this Trust Agreement or the Prospectus, or (iii) the Managing Owner deems advisable, provided, however, that no amendment shall be adopted pursuant to this clause (iii)

  
 41 

 
unless the adoption thereof (A) is not adverse to the interests of the Limited Owners; (B) is consistent with Section 4.1 hereof; (C) except as otherwise provided in
Section 11.1(c) below, does not affect the allocation of Profits and Losses among the Limited Owners or between the Limited Owners and the Managing Owner; and (D) does not adversely affect the limitations on liability of the Limited
Owners, as described in Article VIII hereof or the status of the Trust as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Amendments to this document which adversely affect (i) the rights of Limited Owners, (ii) the
appointment of a new Managing Owner pursuant to Section 4.2(g) above, (iii) the dissolution of the Trust pursuant to Section 13.1(f) below and (iv) any material changes in the Trust’s basic investment policies or structure
shall occur only upon the written approval or affirmative vote of Limited Owners holding Units equal to at least a majority (over 50%) of the Net Asset Value (excluding Units held by the Managing Owner and its Affiliates) pursuant to
Section 11.1(a) above. 
 (c) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in Sections 11.1(a) and
(b) hereof, the Managing Owner may, without the approval of the Limited Owners, amend the provisions of this Trust Agreement if the Trust is advised at any time by the Trust’s accountants or legal counsel that the amendments made are
necessary to ensure that the Trust’s status as a partnership will be respected for U.S. federal income tax purposes. 

(d) Upon amendment of this Trust Agreement, the Certificate of Trust shall also be amended, if required by the Delaware Trust Statute, to
reflect such change. 
 (e) No amendment shall be made to this Trust Agreement without the consent of the Trustee if it
reasonably believes that such amendment adversely affects any of the rights, duties or liabilities of the Trustee; provided, however, that the Trustee may not withhold its consent for any action which the Limited Owners are permitted to take under
Section 8.2(d) above. At the expense of the Managing Owner, the Trustee shall execute and file any amendment to the Certificate of Trust if so directed by the Managing Owner or if such amendment is required in the opinion of the Trustee.

 (f) The Trustee shall be under no obligation to execute any amendment to this Trust Agreement or to any agreement to which
the Trust is a party until it has received an instruction letter from the Managing Owner, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee (i) directing the Trustee to execute such amendment, (ii) representing and warranting to
the Trustee that such execution is authorized and permitted by the terms of this Trust Agreement and (if applicable) such other agreement to which the Trust is a party and does not conflict with or violate any other agreement to which the Trust is a
party and (iii) confirming that such execution and acts related thereto are covered by the indemnity provisions of this Trust Agreement in favor of the Trustee. 
 (g) To the fullest extent permitted by law, no provision of this Trust Agreement may be amended, waived or otherwise modified orally but only by a written instrument adopted in accordance with this
Section. 
 SECTION 11.2. Meetings of the Trust. Meetings of the Unitholders may be called by the Managing Owner and will
be called by it upon the written request of Limited Owners holding Units equal to at least 10% of the Net Asset Value. Such call for a meeting shall be deemed to 

  
 42 

 
have been made upon the receipt by the Managing Owner of a written request from the requisite percentage of Limited Owners. The Managing Owner shall deposit in the United States mail, within
fifteen (15) days after receipt of said request, written notice to all Limited Owners of the meeting and the purpose of the meeting, which shall be held on a date, not less than thirty (30) nor more than sixty (60) days after the date
of mailing of said notice, at a reasonable time and place. Any notice of meeting shall be accompanied by a description of the action to be taken at the meeting and an opinion of independent counsel as to the effect of such proposed action on the
liability of Limited Owners for the debts of the Trust. Unitholders may vote in person or by proxy at any such meeting. 

SECTION 11.3. Action Without a Meeting. Any action required or permitted to be taken by Unitholders by vote may be taken without a
meeting by written consent setting forth the actions so taken. Such written consents shall be treated for all purposes as votes at a meeting. If the vote or consent of any Unitholder to any action of the Trust or any Unitholder, as contemplated by
this Trust Agreement, is solicited by the Managing Owner, the solicitation shall be effected by notice to each Unitholder given in the manner provided in Section 15.4. The vote or consent of each Unitholder so solicited shall be deemed
conclusively to have been cast or granted as requested in the notice of solicitation, whether or not the notice of solicitation is actually received by that Unitholder, unless the Unitholder expresses written objection to the vote or consent by
notice given in the manner provided in Section 15.4 below and actually received by the Trust within twenty (20) days after the notice of solicitation is effected. The Managing Owner and all persons dealing with the Trust shall be entitled
to act in reliance on any vote or consent which is deemed cast or granted pursuant to this Section and shall be fully indemnified by the Trust in so doing. Any action taken or omitted in reliance on any such deemed vote or consent of one or more
Unitholders shall not be void or voidable by reason of timely communication made by or on behalf of all or any of such Unitholders in any manner other than as expressly provided in Section 15.4. 

ARTICLE XII 
 TERM 
 SECTION 12.1. Term. The term for which the Trust is to exist
shall commence on the date of the filing of the Certificate of Trust, and shall be perpetual, unless terminated pursuant to the provisions of Article XIII hereof or as otherwise provided by law. 

ARTICLE XIII 
 TERMINATION 
 SECTION 13.1. Events Requiring Dissolution of the
Trust. The Trust shall dissolve at any time upon the happening of any of the following events: 
 (a) The filing of a
certificate of dissolution or revocation of the Managing Owner’s charter (and the expiration of ninety (90) days after the date of notice to the Managing Owner of revocation without a reinstatement of its charter) or upon the withdrawal,
removal, adjudication or admission of bankruptcy or insolvency of the Managing Owner (each of the 

  
 43 

 
foregoing events an “Event of Withdrawal”) unless (i) at the time there is at least one remaining Managing Owner and that remaining Managing Owner carries on the business of
the Trust or (ii) within ninety (90) days of such Event of Withdrawal all the remaining Unitholders agree in writing to continue the business of the Trust and to select, effective as of the date of such event, one or more successor
Managing Owners. If the Trust is terminated as the result of an Event of Withdrawal and a failure of all remaining Unitholders to continue the business of the Trust and to appoint a successor Managing Owner as provided in clause (a)(ii) above,
within one hundred and twenty (120) days of such Event of Withdrawal, Limited Owners holding Units representing at least a majority (over 50%) of the Net Asset Value (not including Units held by the Managing Owner and its Affiliates) may elect
to continue the business of the Trust by forming a new statutory trust (the “Reconstituted Trust”) on the same terms and provisions as set forth in this Trust Agreement (whereupon the parties hereto shall execute and deliver any
documents or instruments as may be necessary to reform the Trust). Any such election must also provide for the election of a Managing Owner to the Reconstituted Trust. If such an election is made, all Limited Owners of the Trust shall be bound
thereby and continue as Limited Owners of the Reconstituted Trust. 
 (b) The occurrence of any event which would make unlawful
the continued existence of the Trust. 
 (c) In the event of the suspension, revocation or termination of the Managing
Owner’s registration as a commodity pool operator or commodity trading advisor under the CE Act, or membership as a commodity pool operator or commodity trading advisor with the NFA (if, in either case, such registration is required under the
CE Act or the rules promulgated thereunder) unless at the time there is at least one remaining Managing Owner whose registration or membership has not been suspended, revoked or terminated. 

(d) The Trust becomes insolvent or bankrupt. 
 (e) The Limited Owners holding Units representing at least a majority (over 50%) of the Net Asset Value (which excludes the Units of the Managing Owner) vote to dissolve the Trust, notice of which is sent
to the Managing Owner not less than ninety (90) Business Days prior to the effective date of termination. 
 (f) The
determination of the Managing Owner that the aggregate net assets of the Trust in relation to the operating expenses of the Trust make it unreasonable or imprudent to continue the business of the Trust, or, in the exercise of its reasonable
discretion, the determination by the Managing Owner to dissolve the Trust because the aggregate Net Asset Value of the Trust as of the close of business on any Business Day declines below $10 million. 

(g) The Trust is required to be registered as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940. 

(h) DTC is unable or unwilling to continue to perform its functions, and a comparable replacement is unavailable. 

The death, legal disability, bankruptcy, insolvency, dissolution, or withdrawal of any Limited Owner (as long as such Limited Owner is
not the sole Limited Owner of the Trust) shall 

  
 44 

 
not result in the termination of the Trust, and such Limited Owner, his estate, custodian or personal representative shall have no right to withdraw or value such Limited Owner’s Units. Each
Limited Owner (and any assignee thereof) expressly agrees that in the event of his death, he waives on behalf of himself and his estate, and he directs the legal representative of his estate and any person interested therein to waive the furnishing
of any inventory, accounting or appraisal of the assets of the Trust and any right to an audit or examination of the books of the Trust, except for such rights as are set forth in Article IX hereof relating to the books of account and reports
of the Trust. 
 SECTION 13.2. Distributions on Dissolution. Upon the dissolution of the Trust, the Managing Owner (or in
the event there is no Managing Owner, such person (the “Liquidating Trustee”) as the majority in interest of the Limited Owners may propose and approve) shall take full charge of the Trust Estate. Any Liquidating Trustee so
appointed shall have and may exercise, without further authorization or approval of any of the parties hereto, all of the powers conferred upon the Managing Owner under the terms of this Trust Agreement, subject to all of the applicable limitations,
contractual and otherwise, upon the exercise of such powers, and provided that the Liquidating Trustee shall not have general liability for the acts, omissions, obligations and expenses of the Trust. Thereafter, in accordance with
Section 3808(e) of the Delaware Trust Statute, the business and affairs of the Trust shall be wound up and all assets shall be liquidated as promptly as is consistent with obtaining the fair value thereof, and the proceeds therefrom shall be
applied and distributed in the following order of priority: (a) to the expenses of liquidation and termination and to creditors, including Unitholders who are creditors, to the extent otherwise permitted by law, in satisfaction of liabilities
of the Trust (whether by payment or the making of reasonable provision for payment thereof) other than liabilities for distributions to Unitholders, and (b) to the Managing Owner and each Limited Owner pro rata in accordance with his
positive book capital account balance, less any amount owing by such Unitholder, after giving effect to all adjustments made pursuant to Article VI and all distributions theretofore made to the Unitholders pursuant to Article VI. After the
distribution of all remaining assets of the Trust, the Managing Owner will contribute to the Trust an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the deficit balance, if any, in its book capital account, and (ii) the total Capital Contributions of
the Limited Owner. Any Capital Contributions made by the Managing Owner pursuant to this Section shall be applied first to satisfy any amounts then owed by the Trust to its creditors, and the balance, if any, shall be distributed to those
Unitholders whose book capital account balances (immediately following the distribution of any liquidation proceeds) were positive, in proportion to their respective positive book capital account balances. 

SECTION 13.3. Termination; Certificate of Cancellation. Following the dissolution and distribution of the assets of the Trust, the
Trust shall terminate and the Managing Owner or Liquidating Trustee, as the case may be, shall instruct the Trustee to execute and cause a certificate of cancellation of the Certificate of Trust to be filed in accordance with the Delaware Trust
Statute. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Trust Agreement, the existence of the Trust as a separate legal entity shall continue until the filing of such certificate of cancellation.

 ARTICLE XIV 
 POWER OF ATTORNEY 
 SECTION 14.1. Power of Attorney Executed
Concurrently. Concurrently with the written acceptance and adoption of the provisions of this Trust Agreement, each Limited Owner shall execute and deliver to the Managing Owner a Power of Attorney as part of the Purchase Order Subscription
Agreement, or in such other form as may be prescribed by the Managing Owner. Each Limited Owner, by its execution and delivery hereof, irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Managing Owner and its officers and directors, with full power of
substitution, as the true and lawful attorney-in-fact and agent for such Limited Owner with full power and authority to act in his name and on his behalf in the execution, acknowledgment, filing and publishing of Trust documents, including, but not
limited to, the following: 
 (a) Any certificates and other instruments, including but not limited to, any applications for
authority to do business and amendments thereto, which the Managing Owner deems appropriate to qualify or continue the Trust as a business or statutory trust in the jurisdictions in which the Trust may conduct business, so long as such
qualifications and continuations are in accordance with the terms of this Trust Agreement or any amendment hereto, or which may be required to be filed by the Trust or the Unitholders under the laws of any jurisdiction; 

(b) Any instrument which may be required to be filed by the Trust under the laws of any state or by any governmental agency, or which the
Managing Owner deems advisable to file; and 
 (c) This Trust Agreement and any documents which may be required to effect an
amendment to this Trust Agreement approved under the terms of this Trust Agreement, and the continuation of the Trust, the admission of the signer of the Power of Attorney as a Limited Owner or of others as additional or substituted Limited Owners,
or the termination of the Trust, provided such continuation, admission or termination is in accordance with the terms of this Trust Agreement. 
 SECTION 14.2. Effect of Executing and Submitting the Purchase Order Subscription Agreement. By executing and submitting the Purchase Order Subscription Agreement, each Limited Owner has agreed to
concurrently grant the following power of attorney to the Managing Owner (the “Power of Attorney”) which: 

(a) Is a special, irrevocable Power of Attorney coupled with an interest, and shall survive and not be affected by the death, disability,
dissolution, liquidation, termination or incapacity of the Limited Owner; 
 (b) May be exercised by the Managing Owner for each
Limited Owner by a facsimile signature of one of its officers or by a single signature of one of its officers acting as attorney-in-fact for all of them; and 
 (c) Shall survive the delivery of an assignment by a Limited Owner of the whole or any portion of his Limited Units; except that where the assignee thereof has been

  
 46 

 
approved by the Managing Owner for admission to the Trust as a substituted Limited Owner, the Power of Attorney of the assignor shall survive the delivery of such assignment for the sole purpose
of enabling the Managing Owner to execute, acknowledge and file any instrument necessary to effect such substitution. 
 Each
Limited Owner agrees to be bound by any representations made by the Managing Owner and by any successor thereto, determined to be acting in good faith pursuant to such Power of Attorney and not constituting negligence or misconduct. 

SECTION 14.3. Limitation on Power of Attorney. The Power of Attorney concurrently granted by each Limited Owner to the Managing
Owner shall not authorize the Managing Owner to act on behalf of Limited Owners in any situation in which this Trust Agreement requires the approval of Limited Owners unless such approval has been obtained as required by this Trust Agreement. In the
event of any conflict between this Trust Agreement and any instruments filed by the Managing Owner or any new Managing Owner pursuant to this Power of Attorney, this Trust Agreement shall control. 

ARTICLE XV 

MISCELLANEOUS 
 SECTION 15.1. Governing Law. The validity and construction of this Trust Agreement and all amendments hereto shall be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, and the rights of all parties
hereto and the effect of every provision hereof shall be subject to and construed according to the laws of the State of Delaware without regard to the conflict of laws provisions thereof; provided, however, that causes of action for violations of
U.S. federal or state securities laws shall not be governed by this Section, and provided, further, that the parties hereto intend that the provisions hereof shall control over any contrary or limiting statutory or common law of the State of
Delaware (other than the Delaware Trust Statute) and that, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, there shall not be applicable to the Trust, the Trustee, the Managing Owner, the Unitholders or this Trust Agreement any provision of the
laws (statutory or common) of the State of Delaware (other than the Delaware Trust Statute) pertaining to trusts which relate to or regulate in a manner inconsistent with the terms hereof: (a) the filing with any court or governmental body or
agency of trustee accounts or schedules of trustee fees and charges, (b) affirmative requirements to post bonds for trustees, officers, agents, or employees of a trust, (c) the necessity for obtaining court or other governmental approval

Trust Agreement. Section 3540 of Title 12 of the Delaware Code shall not apply to the Trust. The Trust shall be of the type commonly called a “statutory trust,” and without limiting the provisions hereof, the Trust may exercise
all powers that are ordinarily exercised by such a statutory trust under Delaware law. The Trust specifically reserves the right 

  
 47 

 
to exercise any of the powers or privileges afforded to statutory trusts and the absence of a specific reference herein to any such power, privilege or action shall not imply that the Trust may
not exercise such power or privilege or take such actions. 
 SECTION 15.2. Provisions In Conflict With Law or
Regulations. 
 (a) The provisions of this Trust Agreement are severable, and if the Managing Owner shall determine, with
the advice of counsel, that any one or more of such provisions (the “Conflicting Provisions”) are in conflict with the Code, the Delaware Trust Statute or other applicable U.S. federal or state laws, the Conflicting Provisions
shall be deemed never to have constituted a part of this Trust Agreement, even without any amendment of this Trust Agreement pursuant to this Trust Agreement; provided, however, that such determination by the Managing Owner shall not affect or
impair any of the remaining provisions of this Trust Agreement or render invalid or improper any action taken or omitted prior to such determination. No Managing Owner or Trustee shall be liable for making or failing to make such a determination.

 (b) If any provision of this Trust Agreement shall be held invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such holding shall
not in any manner affect or render invalid or unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction or any other provision of this Trust Agreement in any jurisdiction. 
 SECTION 15.3. Construction. In this Trust Agreement, unless the context otherwise requires, words used in the singular or in the plural include both the plural and singular and words denoting any
gender include all genders. The title and headings of different parts are inserted for convenience and shall not affect the meaning, construction or effect of this Trust Agreement. 

SECTION 15.4. Notices. All notices or communications under this Trust Agreement (other than requests for redemption of Units,
notices of assignment, transfer, pledge or encumbrance of Units, and reports and notices by the Managing Owner to the Limited Owners) shall be in writing and shall be effective upon personal delivery, or if sent by mail, postage prepaid, or if sent
electronically, by facsimile or by overnight courier; and addressed, in each such case, to the address set forth in the books and records of the Trust or such other address as may be specified in writing, of the party to whom such notice is to be
given, upon the deposit of such notice in the United States mail, upon transmission and electronic confirmation thereof or upon deposit with a representative of an overnight courier, as the case may be. Requests for redemption, notices of
assignment, transfer, pledge or encumbrance of Units shall be effective upon timely receipt by the Managing Owner in writing. 

SECTION 15.5. Counterparts. This Trust Agreement may be executed in several counterparts, and all so executed shall constitute one
agreement, binding on all of the parties hereto, notwithstanding that all the parties are not signatory to the original or the same counterpart. 
 SECTION 15.6. Binding Nature of Trust Agreement. The terms and provisions of this Trust Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the heirs, custodians, executors, estates,
administrators, personal representatives, successors and permitted assigns of 

  
 48 

 
the respective Unitholders. For purposes of determining the rights of any Unitholder or assignee hereunder, the Trust and the Managing Owner may rely upon the Trust records as to who are
Unitholders and permitted assignees, and all Unitholders and assignees agree that the Trust and the Managing Owner, in determining such rights, shall rely on such records and that Limited Owners and assignees shall be bound by such determination.

 SECTION 15.7. No Legal Title to Trust Estate. Subject to the provisions of Section 1.8 in the case of the
Managing Owner, the Unitholders shall not have legal title to any part of the Trust Estate. 
 SECTION 15.8. Creditors.
No creditors of any Unitholders shall have any right to obtain possession of, or otherwise exercise legal or equitable remedies with respect to the Trust Estate. 
 SECTION 15.9. Integration. This Trust Agreement constitutes the entire agreement among the parties hereto pertaining to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior agreements and
understandings pertaining thereto. 
 SECTION 15.10. Goodwill; Use of Name. No value shall be placed on the name
or goodwill of the Trust, which shall belong exclusively to DB Commodity Services LLC.

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 REQUIRED 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. 

This is to certify that CEDE & CO. is the owner and registered holder of this Certificate evidencing the ownership of all issued and outstanding
Limited Units (“Units”), each of which represents a fractional undivided unit of beneficial interest in PowerShares DB G10 Currency Harvest Fund (the “Trust”), a Delaware statutory trust formed under the Delaware Statutory Trust
Act (12 Del. C. § 3801 et seq.) pursuant to a Certificate of Trust, dated as of and filed in the offices of the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware on April 12, 2006 and as amended from time-to-time (as
applicable), and a Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust and Trust Agreement, dated as of September 12, 2006, by and among DB Commodity Services LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, as managing owner, Wilmington Trust Company, a
Delaware banking company, as trustee, and the unitholders from time to time thereunder (hereinafter called the “Trust Agreement”), copies of which are available at the principal offices of the Trust. 

At any given time this Certificate shall represent all limited units of beneficial interest in the Trust, which shall be the total number
of Units that are outstanding at such time. The Trust Agreement provides for the deposit of cash with the Trust from time to time and the issuance by the Trust of additional Creation Baskets representing the undivided units of beneficial interest in
the assets of the Trust. At the request of the registered holder this Certificate may be exchanged for one or more Certificates issued to the registered holder in such denominations as the registered holder may request, provided, however, that, in
the aggregate, 

  
 C-1

 
the Certificates issued to the registered holder hereof shall represent all Units outstanding at any given time. 
 Each Authorized Participant hereby grants and conveys all of its rights, title and interest in and to the Trust to the extent of the undivided interest represented hereby to the registered holder of this
Certificate subject to and in pursuance of this Trust Agreement, all the terms, conditions and covenants of which are incorporated herein as if fully set forth at length. 
 The registered holder of this Certificate is entitled at any time upon tender of this Certificate to the Trust, endorsed in blank or accompanied by all necessary instruments of assignment and transfer in
proper form, at its principal office in the State of New York and, upon payment of any tax or other governmental charges, to receive at the time and in the manner provided in this Trust Agreement, such holder’s ratable portion of the assets of
the Trust for each Redemption Basket tendered and evidenced by this Certificate. 
 The holder of this Certificate, by virtue of
the purchase and acceptance hereof, assents to and shall be bound by the terms of this Trust Agreement, copies of which are on file and available for inspection at reasonable times during business hours at the principal office of the Trust, to which
reference is made for all the terms, conditions and covenants thereof. 
 The Trust may deem and treat the person in whose name
this Certificate is registered upon the books of the Trust as the owner hereof for all purposes and the Trust shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary. 
 The Trust Agreement permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof, by the Managing Owner with the consent of the Beneficial Owners holding Units (excluding Units held by the
Managing Owner and its Affiliates) equal to at least a majority (over 50%) of the net asset value of the Trust or such higher percentage as may be required by applicable law, and upon receipt of an opinion of independent legal counsel to the effect
that the amendment is legal, valid and binding and will not adversely affect the limitations on liability of the Beneficial Owners; provided, however that the Managing Owner may, without the approval of the Beneficial Owners, make such amendments to
this Trust Agreement which (i) are necessary to add to the representations, duties or obligations of the Managing Owner or surrender any right or power granted to the Managing Owner in this Trust Agreement, for the benefit of the Beneficial
Owners, (ii) are necessary to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provision in this Trust Agreement which may be inconsistent with any other provision in this Trust Agreement or in the Prospectus, or to make any other provisions
with respect to matters or questions arising under this Trust Agreement or the Prospectus which will not be inconsistent with the provisions of this Trust Agreement or the Prospectus, or (iii) the Managing Owner deems advisable, provided,
however, that no amendment shall be adopted pursuant to clause (iii) unless the adoption thereof (A) is not adverse to the interests of the Beneficial Owners; (B) is consistent with Managing Owner’s control of and power to
conduct the business of the Trust; (C) with certain exceptions, does not affect the allocation of Profits and Losses among the Beneficial Owners or between the Beneficial Owners and the Managing Owner; and (D) does not adversely affect the
limitations on liability of the Beneficial Owners or the status of the Trust as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Any such consent or waiver by the holder of Units shall be conclusive and binding upon such holder of Units and

  
 C-2

 
upon all future holders of Units, and shall be binding upon any Units, whether evidenced by a Certificate or held in uncertificated form, issued upon the registration or transfer hereof whether
or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Certificate and whether or not the Units evidenced hereby are at such time in uncertificated form. The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in certain limited circumstances,
without the consent of any holders of Units. 
 The Trust Agreement, and this Certificate, is executed and delivered by DB
Commodity Services LLC, as Managing Owner, in the exercise of the powers and authority conferred and vested in it by this Trust Agreement. The representations, undertakings and agreements made on the part of the Trust in this Trust Agreement or this
Certificate are made and intended not as personal representations, undertakings and agreements by DB Commodity Services LLC but are made and intended for the purpose of binding only the Trust. Nothing in the Agreement or this Certificate shall be
construed as creating any liability on DB Commodity Services LLC, individually or personally, to fulfill any representation, undertaking or agreement other than as provided in this Trust Agreement or this Certificate. 

This Certificate shall not become valid or binding for any purpose until properly executed by the Managing Owner pursuant to this Trust
Agreement. 
 Terms not defined herein have the same meaning as in this Trust Agreement.

 2. Conversion of Preferred Shares. 

(a) Subject to Section 2(b) below, each Investor shall have the right any time following the receipt of the Office Depot Stockholder
Approval and prior to the date of the Closing to convert any or all of the Preferred Shares into shares of Office Depot’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Shares”) in accordance with Section 7(a) of the
Series A CoD and Section 7(a) of the Series B CoD, as applicable. Upon receipt by Office Depot of a conversion notice pursuant to Section 7(a) of the Series A CoD and Section 7(a) of the Series B CoD, as applicable, Office Depot shall
promptly deliver to the Investors or their designees Common Shares issuable upon such conversion, which delivery shall be made, at the option of the Investors, in certificated form or by book-entry, to permit the Investors to consummate a sale of
such Common Shares in a normal three trading day settlement cycle. 
 (b) None of the Investors shall
convert any Preferred Shares if doing so would result in the Investors owning Common Shares in an aggregate amount equal to, or in excess of, 5.0% of the Undiluted Office Depot Stock (the “Threshold”) unless such Investors
(i) have a good faith intention to sell prior to the Closing all such Common Shares converted or to be converted that are equal to, or in excess of, the Threshold and (ii) have entered into an underwriting or sale agreement or placed sell
orders or made other arrangements to sell prior to the Closing such Common Shares in compliance with the provisions of this Agreement (collectively, a “Sale Arrangement”). In the event that (x) the Investors comply with the
obligations set forth in the foregoing sentence but are unable to sell the Common Shares pursuant to the terms of the Sale Arrangement (other than as a consequence of any act or omission of the Investors), and, as a result, hold Common Shares equal
to, or in excess of, the Threshold as of the close of business on the date immediately prior to the date of the Closing (such amount of Common Shares, the “Redeemable Common Shares”) and (y) Office Depot has received the Office
Depot Lender Consent to repurchase the Redeemable Common Shares immediately prior to the Closing, Office Depot shall purchase from the Investors, and the Investors shall sell to Office Depot, immediately prior to the Closing (and following the
satisfaction or waiver of all conditions to the Closing under the Merger Agreement other than the condition set forth in Section 7.2(g) of the Merger Agreement), the Redeemable Common Shares at a price per share equal to the closing price per
Common Share reported at the close of the NYSE on the trading date immediately prior to the date of the Closing. To the extent that Office Depot has received the Office Depot Lender Consent to repurchase the Redeemable Common Shares immediately
prior to the Closing, (x) the Investors hereby agree to deliver and surrender to Office Depot no later than 9:00 a.m., New York time, on the date of the Closing on a book-entry basis (or by delivery of certificates to the offices designated for
the Closing pursuant to Section 1.2 of the Merger Agreement) the Redeemable Common Shares against payment therefor as provided in the next sentence and (y) as promptly as practicable on the date of the Closing following such surrender,
Office Depot shall deliver in cash by wire transfer in immediately available funds to each of the Investors the purchase price of the Redeemable Common Shares purchased in accordance with this Section 2(b) to an account or accounts designated
by the Investors in writing to Office Depot at least two business days prior to the Closing. For the avoidance of doubt, to the extent that Office Depot has not received the Office Depot Lender Consent to repurchase the Redeemable Common Shares
immediately prior to the Closing, then the obligation for Office Depot to purchase the Redeemable Shares, and the obligation of the Investors to sell the Redeemable Shares, shall be null and void without any further action of the parties.

 3. Dividends. Unless and until the Merger Agreement is terminated in accordance with
its terms, from and after the date of this Agreement, Office Depot shall pay in cash all Net Preferred Dividends on the Preferred Shares on the applicable Dividend Payment Date for each Dividend Period in accordance with the Series A CoD and the
Series B CoD, as the case may be, such that no amounts shall be added to the Liquidation Preference in accordance with the definition thereof. Capitalized terms used in this Section 3 and not defined in this Agreement have the respective
meanings set forth in the Series A CoD and the Series B CoD, as the case may be.

Merger Agreement, however called, or at any adjournment or postponement thereof, or in connection with any written consent of the stockholders of Office Depot or in any other circumstances in which the Investors are entitled to vote, consent or give
any other approval with respect to the issuance of Common Shares pursuant to the Merger Agreement, each Investor shall (a) appear at such meeting or otherwise cause its Owned Shares to be counted as present thereat for purposes of calculating a
quorum, and respond to each request by Office Depot for written consent, if any, and (b) vote or cause to be voted (including by written consent, if applicable) all of the Owned Shares (A) in favor of the issuance of Common Shares pursuant
to the Merger Agreement and each of the other actions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and (B) in favor of the approval of any other matter that is required by applicable laws, statutes, rules or regulations (including stock exchange rules)

stockholders of Office Depot to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, including the issuance of Common Shares pursuant to the Merger Agreement. 
 (ii) At any meeting of the stockholders of Office Depot, however called, or at any adjournment or postponement thereof, or in connection with any written consent of the stockholders of Office Depot, or in
any other circumstances in which the Investors are entitled to vote, consent or give any other approval, each Investor shall vote or cause to be voted (including by written consent, if applicable) all of the Owned Shares against any Office Depot
Acquisition Proposal. 
 (iii) The Investors’ obligations under Section 4(a) and 4(b) shall be suspended during any

Governmental Authority, except where failure to obtain such consent, approval, license, permit, order, declaration, authorization or registration, or to make such filings or notifications, would not prevent or impair the ability of OfficeMax from
consummating the transactions contemplated hereby in any material respect, or otherwise prevent OfficeMax from exercising its rights under this Agreement in any material respect. 

8. Further Agreement of the Investors. To the extent that the stock register for any of the Owned Shares is maintained by Office
Depot’s transfer agent, each Investor hereby authorizes and requests Office Depot’s counsel to notify Office Depot’s transfer agent that there is a stop transfer order with respect to such Owned Shares (and that this Agreement places
limits on the voting of the Owned Shares) until receipt of the Office Depot Stockholder Approval. Each Investor covenants that such Investor shall not request that Office Depot or its transfer agent register the transfer (book-entry or otherwise) of
any certificate or uncertificated interest representing any of the Owned Shares, unless such transfer is made in compliance with this Agreement. In the event of a stock dividend or distribution, or any change in any of the Owned Shares by reason of
any stock dividend or distribution, or any change in any of the Owned Shares by reason of any stock dividend, split-up, recapitalization, combination, exchange of shares or the like, the term “Owned Shares” shall be deemed to refer to and
include the Owned Shares as well as all such stock dividends and distributions and any shares into which or for which any or all of the Owned Shares may be changed or exchanged. 

9. Further Assurances. From time to time prior to the Closing, at any other party’s request and without further
consideration, each party hereto shall execute and deliver such additional documents and take all such further lawful action as may be necessary or desirable to consummate and make effective, in the most expeditious manner practicable, the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement. 
 10. Termination. Except with respect to Sections 10 through and including
Section 25, the obligations of the parties under this Agreement shall terminate upon the earliest to occur of (a) the Closing, (b) the date that any amendment to, or waiver of, Office Depot’s rights under the Merger
Agreement is effected without the Investor Representative’s consent (which, in connection with an amendment to, or waiver of, Article II of the Merger Agreement that relates to the structure of the transaction, shall not be unreasonably
withheld (it being understood that the items specified in the following clause (i) shall not be deemed to be related to the structure of the transaction)) that (i) increases the Exchange Ratio or otherwise provides additional merger
consideration to the OfficeMax Stockholders in exchange for shares of OfficeMax capital stock, (ii) disproportionately adversely affects the Investors in their capacity as holders of Common Shares (relative to other holders of Common Shares) or
(iii) adversely affects the Investors in their capacity as holders of Preferred Stock or the Investors’ rights or obligations under this Agreement (including the ability of the Investors to enter into Sale Arrangements to sell the Common
Shares); provided, however, it is hereby acknowledged and agreed that none of (w) an extension of the End Date that is mutually agreed upon by Office Depot and OfficeMax, (x) any waiver of the conditions to closing or covenants contained
in the Merger Agreement (other than Section 7.1(a)(i) of the Merger Agreement) or (y) any amendment to Sections 1.4, 1.5, 2.1, 2.6 or 8.2 or an extension of the cure period in Section 8.1(j) (which, in each case, is not proposed with
the express purpose of adversely affecting the Investors) shall be 

  
 12 

 
deemed to result in a termination of this Agreement pursuant to this clause (b)(iii) so long as Office Depot has complied with the covenant contained in Section 4(f)(v) of this Agreement and
(c) the termination of the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such termination shall relieve any party hereto of any liability for damages resulting from any breach of this Agreement (which breach,
and liability therefor, shall not be affected by termination of this Agreement). 
 11. Costs and Expenses. The
reasonable out of pocket costs and expenses (including legal fees and expenses) incurred by the Investors and the Investor Representative in connection with the review, negotiation, execution and delivery, as the case may be, of this Agreement, the
Termination Agreement and the Merger Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including any filings required to be made by the Investors or their Affiliates with the Commission (including the 13D Filing) in
connection therewith, shall be paid by Office Depot up to a maximum amount of $300,000. In the event of litigation relating to this Agreement, if a court of competent jurisdiction issues a final, non-appealable order, the non-prevailing party in
such litigation shall reimburse the prevailing party for its reasonable fees and expenses incurred in connection with the litigation (which fees and expenses, for the avoidance of doubt, will not be subject to, or count towards, the maximum amount
set forth in the preceding sentence). Except as otherwise provided in this Section 11, all costs and expenses incurred in connection with this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby shall be paid by the party
incurring such expenses. 
 12. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed in all respects by the laws of the State
of Delaware without regard to any choice of laws or conflict of laws provisions that would require the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction. 
 13. Jurisdiction; Enforcement. The parties agree that irreparable damage would occur if any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were
otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that each of the parties shall be entitled (in addition to any other remedy that may be available to it, including monetary damages) to an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement
and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement exclusively in the Delaware Court of Chancery and any state appellate court therefrom within the State of Delaware (or, if the Delaware Court of Chancery declines to accept
jurisdiction over a particular matter, any state or federal court within the State of Delaware). In addition, each of the parties irrevocably agrees that any legal action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement and the rights and obligations
arising hereunder, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect of this Agreement and the rights and obligations arising hereunder brought by the other party or its successors or assigns, shall be brought and determined exclusively
in the Delaware Court of Chancery and any state appellate court therefrom within the State of Delaware (or, if the Delaware Court of Chancery declines to accept jurisdiction over a particular matter, any state or federal court within the State of
Delaware). The parties further agree that no party to this Agreement shall be required to obtain, furnish or post any bond or similar instrument in connection with or as a condition to obtaining any remedy referred to in this Section and each party
waives any objection to the imposition of such relief or any right it may have to require the obtaining, furnishing or posting of any such bond or similar instrument. Each of the parties hereby irrevocably submits with regard to any such action or
proceeding for itself and in respect 

  
 13 

 
of its property, generally and unconditionally, to the personal jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts and agrees that it will not bring any action relating to this Agreement or any of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement in any court other than the aforesaid courts. Each of the parties hereby irrevocably waives, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any action or proceeding
with respect to this Agreement, (a) any claim that it is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the above named courts for any reason other than the failure to serve in accordance with this Section, (b) any claim that it or its
property is exempt or immune from jurisdiction of any such court or from any legal process commenced in such courts (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment
or otherwise) and (c) to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, any claim that (i) the suit, action or proceeding in such court is brought in an inconvenient forum, (ii) the venue of such suit, action or proceeding is
improper or (iii) this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof, may not be enforced in or by such courts. Each party hereby consents to service being made through the notice procedures set forth in Section 17 and agrees that service of any
process, summons, notice or document by registered mail (return receipt requested and first-class postage prepaid) to the respective addresses set forth in Section 17 shall be effective service of process for any suit or proceeding in
connection with this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. EACH OF THE PARTIES KNOWINGLY, INTENTIONALLY AND VOLUNTARILY WITH AND UPON THE ADVICE OF COMPETENT COUNSEL IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ANY AND ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN
ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. 
 14. Successors
and Assigns. Except pursuant to a written joinder agreement executed by an Affiliate of an Investor in connection with a Transfer of Preferred Shares in accordance with Section 4(c) of this Agreement and Section 4.1 of the Investor
Rights Agreement, neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations arising under this Agreement shall be directly or indirectly assigned, delegated, sublicensed or transferred by any of the parties (whether by operation of law
or otherwise), in whole or in part, to any other Person without the prior written consent of the other parties, except that Office Depot or OfficeMax may assign, in their respective sole discretion, any or all of their respective rights, interests
and obligations hereunder to any of their respective direct or indirect wholly owned Subsidiaries, provided that no such assignment shall relieve Office Depot or OfficeMax, as the case may be, from any of its obligations hereunder. Subject to the
preceding sentence, the provisions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the successors and assigns of the parties. 
 15. No Third-Party Beneficiaries. Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary, nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, is intended to confer on any Person other
than the parties any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement, and no Person that is not a party to this Agreement (including any partner, member, shareholder, director, officer, employee or other beneficial
owner of any party, in its own capacity as such or in bringing a derivative action on behalf of a party) shall have any standing as third-party beneficiary with respect to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

 16. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Investor Rights Agreement (in respect of
the period ending immediately prior to the Closing), the Termination Agreement (in respect of the period from and after the Closing), the Purchase Agreement and the other documents delivered pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, including the
Registration Rights Agreement, constitute the full and entire understanding and agreement among the parties with regard to the subjects of this Agreement and such other agreements and documents; provided that it is acknowledged and agreed by the
parties that the obligations of the Investors and the Investor Representative under this Agreement are supplemental and in addition to the obligations of the Investors and the Investor Representative under the Investor Rights Agreement (except to
the extent such obligations have been modified by this Agreement). The Investors and Office Depot, as the case may be, acknowledge and agree that any waiver, notice or consent required of such party under the Series A CoD or Series B CoD in order to
fully effectuate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be deemed to have been given or made as a result of the execution and delivery of this Agreement.

given in a like manner. Notices shall be deemed given when actually delivered by overnight delivery service, hand or messenger, or when received by facsimile if promptly confirmed. 

18. Delays or Omissions. No delay or omission to exercise any right, power, or remedy accruing to any party under this Agreement
shall impair any such right, power, or remedy of such party, nor shall it be construed to be a waiver of or acquiescence to any breach or default, or of or in any similar breach or default thereafter occurring; nor shall any waiver of any single
breach or default be deemed a waiver of any other breach or default. All remedies, either under this Agreement or by law or otherwise afforded to any holder, shall be cumulative and not alternative. 

  
 16 

 19. Amendments and Waivers. Any term of this Agreement may be amended and the
observance of any term of this Agreement may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively), only if such amendment or waiver is in writing and signed, in the case of an amendment, by Office Depot,
OfficeMax and the Investors or, in the case of a waiver, by the party against whom the waiver is to be effective (provided that Office Depot shall not agree to any waiver hereunder without the prior written consent of OfficeMax). 

20. Investor Representative. All decisions, actions, consents, waivers and instructions under this Agreement by the Investor
Representative shall be binding upon all of the Investors, and no Investor shall have the right to object to, dissent from, protest or otherwise contest the same. Office Depot and OfficeMax shall be entitled to rely on any decision, action,
consent, waiver or instruction of the Investor Representative as being the decision, action, consent or instruction of the Investors, and Office Depot and OfficeMax are hereby relieved from any liability to any Investor for acts done by them in
accordance with any such decision, act, consent, waiver or instruction. 
 21. Counterparts. This Agreement may be
executed in any number of counterparts and signatures may be delivered by facsimile or in electronic format, each of which may be executed by less than all the parties, each of which shall be enforceable against the parties actually executing such
counterparts and all of which together shall constitute one instrument. 
 22. Severability. If any provision of this
Agreement becomes or is declared by a court of competent jurisdiction to be illegal, unenforceable, or void, portions of such provision, or such provision in its entirety, to the extent necessary, shall be severed from this Agreement and the balance
of this Agreement shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms. All rights, powers and remedies provided under this Agreement or otherwise available in respect hereof at law or in equity shall be cumulative and not alternative, and the exercise
of any thereof by any party shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise of any other such right, power or remedy by such party. 
 23. Titles and Subtitles; Interpretation; Schedule 13D. The titles and subtitles used in this Agreement are used for convenience only and are not to be considered in construing or interpreting this
Agreement. When a reference is made in this Agreement to a Section or Schedule, such reference shall be to a Section or Schedule of this Agreement unless otherwise indicated. Whenever the words “include,” “includes” or
“including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation.” The definitions contained in this Agreement are applicable to the singular as well as the plural forms of such terms
and to the masculine as well as to the feminine and neuter genders of such term. Any agreement, instrument or statute defined or referred to in this Agreement means such agreement, instrument or statute as from time to time amended, modified or
supplemented, including (in the case of agreements or instruments) by waiver or consent and (in the case of statutes) by succession of comparable successor statutes. Each of the parties has participated in the drafting and negotiation of this
Agreement. If an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if it is drafted by each of the parties, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of
authorship of any of the provisions of this Agreement. Office Depot and OfficeMax hereby acknowledge and agree that this Agreement and the Termination Agreement shall be disclosed as exhibits to the amendment to the Investor Schedule 13D (the
“13D Filing”) that will be filed by the Investors as promptly as practicable following the execution and delivery this Agreement. 

  
 17 

 24. Post-Closing Standstill Restrictions. From the Closing until the second
anniversary of the Closing, each of the Investors and their respective Affiliates (including commonly controlled or managed investment funds) shall not (i) directly or indirectly acquire, agree to acquire, or offer to acquire, beneficial
ownership of any equity or debt securities of Office Depot, any warrant or option to purchase such securities, any security convertible into any such securities, or any other right to acquire such securities, (ii) directly or indirectly enter
into or agree to enter into any merger, business combination, recapitalization, restructuring, change of control transaction or other extraordinary transaction involving Office Depot or any of its Subsidiaries, (iii) make, or in any way
participate or engage in, directly or indirectly, any solicitation of proxies to vote, or seek to advise or influence any Person with respect to the voting of, any voting securities of Office Depot or any Subsidiary of Office Depot, (iv) bring
any action or otherwise act to contest the validity of the restrictions set forth in this Section 24, or seek a release of such restrictions, (v) form, join or in any way participate in a “group” (within the meaning of
Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) with respect to any voting securities of Office Depot or any Subsidiary of Office Depot except for any group consisting solely of the Investors and their respective Affiliates, (vi) seek the removal of
any directors from the Board or a change in the size or composition of the Board, (vii) propose or enter into any discussions, negotiations, arrangements, understandings or agreements (whether written or oral) with any other Person regarding
any possible purchase or sale of any securities or assets of Office Depot or any Subsidiary of Office Depot (other than securities owned by the Investors), (viii) call, request the calling of, or otherwise seek or assist in the calling of a
special meeting of the shareholders of Office Depot, (ix) deposit any Common Shares in a voting trust or similar arrangement or subject any Common Shares to any voting agreement, pooling arrangement or similar arrangement, or grant any proxy
with respect to any Common Shares to any Person not Affiliated with the Investor or Office Depot management, (x) disclose any intention, plan or arrangement prohibited by, or inconsistent with, the foregoing or (xi) make, or take, any
action that would reasonably be expected to cause Office Depot to make a public announcement regarding any intention of any Investor to take an action that would be prohibited by the foregoing; provided, however, that the foregoing
shall not restrict the ability of the Investors to enter into any swap or any other arrangement, understanding, transaction or series of transactions that hedges or transfers, in whole or in part, directly or indirectly, the economic consequence of
ownership of the Common Shares, whether any such arrangement, understanding, transaction, swap or series of transactions is to be settled by delivery of securities, in cash or otherwise. For the avoidance of doubt, the provisions of this
Section 24 shall not be deemed to be effective unless and until the Closing occurs. 
 25. Certain Definitions.

 (a) “Affiliate” of any Person shall mean any other Person directly or indirectly controlling or controlled by
or under common control with such Person. For purposes of this definition, “control” when used with respect to any Person has the meaning specified in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act (including Commission and judicial interpretations
thereof); and the terms “controlling” and “controlled” shall have meanings correlative to the foregoing. 

  
 18 

 (b) “Office Depot Credit Agreement” shall mean that certain Amended and
Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of May 25, 2011, as such may be amended, waived or modified, from time to time.

approving the issuance of Common Shares pursuant to the Merger Agreement at the Office Depot Stockholders Meeting by holders of Preferred Shares and Common Shares entitled to vote thereon on the record date for the Office Depot Stockholders Meeting,
voting together as a single class. 
 (d) “Person” shall mean any individual, association, partnership, limited
liability company, joint venture, corporation, trust, unincorporated organization, Governmental Authority or any other form of entity. 
 (e) “Subsidiary” of any Person shall mean any corporation, partnership, joint venture, limited liability company, trust or other form of legal entity of which (or in which) more than 50%
of (i) the issued and outstanding capital stock having ordinary voting power to elect a majority of the board of directors of such corporation (irrespective of whether at the time capital stock of any other class or classes of such corporation
shall or might have voting power upon the occurrence of any contingency), (ii) the interest in the capital or profits of such partnership, joint venture or limited liability company or (iii) the beneficial interest in such trust or estate
is at the time directly or indirectly owned or controlled by such Person, by such Person and one or more of its other Subsidiaries or by one or more of such Person’s other Subsidiaries. 

(f) “Undiluted Office Depot Stock” shall mean an amount equal to that amount of Common Shares that are expected by Office
Depot to be issued and outstanding immediately following the Closing (without giving effect to any Office Depot Options, Office Depot Stock-Based Awards or other securities convertible, exercisable or exchangeable for Common Shares, in each case
that are expected by Office Depot to be issued and outstanding immediately following the Closing).
