 (h) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, the Trustee shall not be required to take any action in any

 increase by up to an additional 500,000 ($50,000,000) Limited Interests if the Managing Owner exercises the right granted
to them to sell such additional Limited Interests. Thereafter, up to an additional $50,000,000 of Limited Interests may be sold in the discretion of the Managing Owner. No fractional Limited Interests shall be issued during the Initial Offering
Period. Each newly admitted Limited Owner shall make a Capital Contribution to the Trust of at least $5,000, except for Individual Retirement Account (“IRA”) subscribers, who shall be required to make a Capital Contribution of not less
than $2,000. The offering shall be made pursuant to and on the terms and conditions set forth in the Prospectus. The Managing Owner shall make such arrangements for the sale of the Limited Interests as it deems appropriate. 
  
 (b) Effect of the Sale of at least 200,000 Limited Interests. In the
event that at least 200,000 Limited Interests offered pursuant to the Prospectus are sold during the Initial Offering Period, the Managing Owner will admit all accepted subscribers into the Trust as Limited Owners, by causing such Limited Owners to
execute this Trust Agreement, pursuant to the Power of Attorney set forth in the Subscription Agreement, and by making an entry on the books and records of the Trust reflecting that such subscribers have been admitted as Limited Owners, as soon as
practicable after the termination of the Initial Offering Period. Accepted subscribers will be deemed Limited Owners at such time as such admission is reflected on the books and records of the Trust. 
  
 (c) Paid-In Capital if at least 200,000 Limited Interests Are Sold. In
the event that at least 200,000 Limited Interests offered pursuant to the Prospectus are sold during the Initial Offering Period, the Trust shall have paid-in capital of not less than $20,202,000 (including the Managing Owner’s contribution for

 (d) Effect of the Sale of Less than 200,000 Limited Interests. In the event that at least 200,000 Limited Interests offered pursuant to the Prospectus are not sold during the Initial Offering Period, all

amount equal to 1.01% of any additional Capital Contributions received by the Trust from the Limited Owners. The Managing Owner and/or its Affiliates will receive General Interests in proportion to its contribution. The Managing Owner shall, with
respect to any Limited Interests or General Interests owned by them, enjoy all of the rights and privileges and be subject to all of the obligations and duties of a Limited Owner, in addition to rights and privileges the Managing Owner and/or its

 C-13 

 

 (f) Offer of Limited Interests After Initial Offering Period. In the event that 200,000 or more of
the Limited Interests offered pursuant to the Prospectus are sold during the Initial Offering Period, the Trust, pursuant to Securities and Exchange Commission Rule 415, may continue to offer Limited Interests and admit additional Limited Owners
pursuant to the Prospectus during the Continuous Offering Period. 
  
 Each newly admitted Limited Owner shall make a Capital Contribution to the Trust in an amount equal to the then Net Asset Value per Interest as of the close of business on the last day of a calendar month and an amount of at least $5,000,
except for IRA subscribers, which amount for such subscribers shall not be less than $2,000. Notwithstanding the foregoing, existing Limited Owners will be permitted to make an additional Capital Contribution to the Trust in an amount equal to the
then Net Asset Value per Interest as of the close of business on the last day of a calendar month and in an amount of at least $1,000. Each additional Capital Contribution during the Continuous Offering Period must be in a denomination which is an

received and accepted by the Trust after the termination of the Initial Offering Period shall be admitted to the Trust and deemed a Limited Owner on the first day of the month next succeeding the month during which such subscriber’s
subscription was accepted. Existing Limited Owners who contribute additional sums are considered to have made the contribution and received the related Limited Interests as of the first day of next succeeding month.

Limited Interests offered pursuant to the Prospectus shall contribute to the capital of the Trust such amount as he shall state in the Subscription Agreement which he shall execute (as required therein), acknowledge and, together with the Power of
Attorney set forth therein, deliver to the Managing Owner as a counterpart of this Agreement. All subscription amounts shall be in such form as may be acceptable to the Managing Owner at the time of the execution and delivery of such Subscription
Agreement by United States subscribers, and in accordance with local practice and procedure by non-United States subscribers. To the extent that the Managing Owner determines to accept a subscription check, it shall be subject to prompt collection.
All subscriptions are subject to acceptance by the Managing Owner.

Initial Offering Period. In the event subscriptions for at least 200,000 of the Limited Interests offered pursuant to the Prospectus are received and accepted during the Initial Offering Period, all interest earned on the proceeds of the
subscriptions during the Initial Offering Period will be distributed to the purchasers of Limited Interests on a pro rata basis (taking into account time and amount of deposit) not later than ten (10) Business Days after the conclusion of the
Initial Offering Period, or as soon thereafter as practicable if payment cannot be made in such time period.

Trust) in each material item of Trust income, gain, loss and deduction shall be equal, in the aggregate, to at least one percent (1%) of each such item at all times during the term of this Agreement.

have such powers, which shall include, without limitation, the following: 
  
 (a) To enter into, execute, deliver and maintain contracts, agreements and any or all other documents and instruments, and to do and perform all such things, as may be in furtherance of Trust purposes or necessary or
appropriate for the offer and sale of the Interests and the conduct of Trust activities, including, but not limited to, contracts with third parties for: 
  
 (i) commodity brokerage services, as well as administrative services necessary to the prudent operation of the Trust, provided,
however that in no event shall the fees payable by the Trust for such services exceed any limitations imposed by the NASAA Guidelines as in effect on the date hereof, except to the extent that such limitations are amended to become more
restrictive, in which event such fees will not exceed such more restrictive limitations, and provided, further, that such services may be performed by an Affiliate or Affiliates of the Managing Owner so long as the Managing Owner has
made a good faith determination that: (A) the Affiliate which it proposes to engage to perform such services is qualified to do so (considering the prior experience of the Affiliate or the 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 third parties; and (C) the maximum period covered by the agreement
pursuant to which such affiliate is to perform services for the Trust shall not exceed one year, and such agreement shall be terminable without penalty upon sixty (60) days’ prior written notice by the Trust; and 
  

 C-15 

 

 (ii) commodity trading advisory services relating to the purchase and sale of all

exceed any limitations imposed by the NASAA Guidelines as in effect on the date hereof, except to the extent that such limitations are amended to become more restrictive, in which event such fees will not exceed such more restrictive limitations.
All advisory services shall be performed by persons with at least three years experience and who are also appropriately registered as may be required under federal and/or state law (e.g., all advice with respect to futures related transactions shall
be required to be given by persons who are registered with the CFTC as a commodity trading advisor and are members of the NFA as a commodity trading advisor), but shall not be performed by any person affiliated with the Trust’s Commodities
broker unless the Managing Owner is satisfied that doing so would not create a conflict of interest. 
  
 (b) To establish, maintain, deposit into, sign checks and/or otherwise draw upon accounts on behalf of the Trust with appropriate banking and savings
institutions, and execute and/or accept any instrument or agreement incidental to the Trust’s business and in furtherance of its purposes, any such instrument or agreement so executed or accepted by the Managing Owner in the Managing
Owner’s name shall be deemed executed and accepted on behalf of the Trust by the Managing Owner; 
  
 (c) To deposit, withdraw, pay, retain and distribute the Trust Estate in any manner consistent with the provisions of this Trust Agreement; 
  
 (d) To supervise the preparation and filing of the Registration Statement and

hereunder which may constitute prohibited transactions under ERISA and the Code; 
  
 (g) To make any elections on behalf of the Trust under the Code, or any other applicable federal or state tax law as the Managing Owner shall determine to be in the best interests of the Trust; 
  
 (h) To redeem mandatorily any Limited Interests upon at least ten (10)
Business Days’ prior written notice, if (i) the Managing Owner determines that the continued participation of such Limited Owner in the Trust might cause the Trust or any Interestholder to be deemed to be managing Plan Assets under ERISA, (ii)
there is an unauthorized assignment pursuant to the provisions of Article V, or (iii) in the event that any transaction would or might 
  

 C-16 

 

 violate any law or constitute a prohibited transaction under ERISA or the Code and a statutory, class or individual
exemption from the prohibited transaction provisions of ERISA for such transaction or transactions does not apply or cannot be obtained from the DOL (or the Managing Owner determines not to seek such an exemption). In the case of mandatory
redemptions, the Redemption Date shall be the close of business on the date written notice of intent to redeem is sent by the Managing Owner to a Limited Owner. A notice may be revoked prior to the payment date by written notice from the Managing
Owner to a Limited Owner; 
  
 (i) In the sole discretion of the
Managing Owner, to admit an Affiliate or Affiliates of the Managing Owner as additional Managing Owners. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Managing Owner may not admit Affiliate(s) of the Managing Owner as an additional Managing Owner if it has
received notice of its removal as a Managing Owner, pursuant to Section 8.2(d) hereof; 
  
 (j) Override any trading instructions: (i) that the Managing Owner, in its sole discretion, determines in good faith to be in violation of any trading policy or limitation of the Trust, including as set forth in

redemptions (including special redemptions), or reapportionments among Trading Managers or to pay the expenses of the Trust; and provided, further that the Managing Owner may make Commodities trading decisions at any time at which any Trading
Manager shall become incapacitated or some other emergency shall arise as a result of which such Trading Manager shall be unable or unwilling to act and a successor Trading Manager has not yet been retained; 
  
 (k) Monitor the trading activities of the Trading Manager so that:

  
 (i) The Trust does not establish new
Commodities positions for any one contract month or option if such additional Commodities positions would result in a net long or short position for that Commodities position requiring as margin or premium more than fifteen percent (15%) of the
Trust Estate. 
  
 (ii) The Trust does not acquire
additional Commodities positions in any commodities interest contract or option if such additional Commodities positions would result in the aggregate net long or short Commodities positions requiring as margin or premium for all outstanding
Commodities positions more than sixty-six and two-thirds percent (66 2/3%) of the Trust Estate. Under certain
market conditions, such as an abrupt increase in margins required by a commodity exchange or its clearinghouse or an inability to liquidate open Commodities positions because of daily price fluctuation limits or both, the Trust may be required to
commit as margin in excess of the foregoing limit. In such event the Managing Owner will cause each Trading Manager to reduce its open positions to comply with the foregoing limit before initiating new Commodities positions. 
  
 SECTION 4.3 Obligations of the Managing Owner. In addition to the
obligations expressly provided by the Business Trust Statute or this Trust Agreement, the Managing Owner shall:

conduct the business and affairs of the Trust for the benefit of the Trust and the Limited Owners;

 (f) Monitor the trading policies and limitations of the Trust, as set forth in the Prospectus, and the activities of the Trust’s Trading Manager(s)
in carrying out those policies in compliance with the Prospectus; 
  
 (g) Review, not less often than annually, 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 the best price and services available under the circumstances, and if necessary, renegotiate the brokerage fee structure to obtain such rates and services for the Trust. In making its annual rate
determination the Managing Owner shall not rely solely on the brokerage rates paid by other major commodity pools. No material change related to brokerage fees shall be made except upon twenty (20) Business Days’ prior notice to the Limited
Owners, which notice shall include a description of the Limited Owners’ voting rights as set forth in Section 8.2 hereof and redemption rights as set forth in Section 7.1 hereof, and no increase in such fees shall take effect except at the
beginning of a Fiscal Quarter following the consent of at least a majority in interest of the Limited Owners (excluding the Managing Owner); 
  
 (h) Have fiduciary responsibility for the safekeeping and use of the Trust Estate, whether or not in the Managing Owner’s immediate possession or
control, and the Managing Owner will not employ or permit others to employ such funds or assets of the Trust (including any interest earned thereon) in any manner except as and to the extent permitted by the NASAA Guidelines for the benefit of the
Trust, including, among other things, the utilization of any portion of the Trust Estate as compensating balances for the benefit of the Managing Owner. The Trust shall not permit any Limited Owner to contract away the fiduciary duty owed to the
Limited Owner by the Managing Owner under common law;

to reduce its “net worth” below, $1 million, or such higher amount as may be required under the NASAA Guidelines as they may be amended from time to time. The NASAA Guidelines define “net worth” as the excess of total assets over
total liabilities as determined by GAAP; 
  

 C-18 

 

 (j) Admit substituted Limited Owners in accordance with this Trust Agreement; 
  
 (k) Refuse to recognize any attempted transfer or assignment of an Interest
that is not made in accordance with the provisions of Article V; and

representative for any purpose reasonably related to the Limited Owner’s interest as a beneficial owner of the Trust. Such list shall be printed on white paper in clearly legible print and shall be updated quarterly. Upon request, for any
purpose reasonably related to the Limited Owner’s interest as a beneficial owner of the Trust, including without limitation, matters relating to an Interestholder’ s voting rights hereunder or the exercise of a Limited Owner’s rights
under federal proxy law, either in person or by mail, the Managing Owner will furnish a copy of such list to a Limited Owner or his representative within ten (10) days of a request therefor, upon payment of the cost of reproduction and mailing;
provided, however, that the Limited Owner requesting such list shall give written assurance that the list will not, in any event, be used for commercial purposes. Subject to applicable law, a Limited Owner shall give the Managing Owner at least ten
(10) Business Days’ prior written notice for any inspection and copying permitted pursuant to this Section 4.3(1) by the Limited Owner or his authorized attorney or agent. 
  
 SECTION 4.4 General Prohibitions. The Trust shall not:

 SECTION 4.5 Liability of the Managing Owner. The Managing Owner shall have no liability to the Trust or to any Interestholder for any loss suffered
by the Trust which arises out of any action or inaction of the Managing Owner if the Managing Owner, 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 the Managing Owner. Subject to the foregoing, the Managing Owner shall not 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.

 C-20 

 

 connection with 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 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. Any indemnification under this Section 4.6(a), unless ordered by a court, shall be made by the Trust only as authorized in the specific case and only
upon a determination by independent legal counsel in a written opinion that indemnification of the Managing Owner is proper in the circumstances because it has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth hereunder. 
  
 (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 4.6(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 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) In any claim for indemnification for federal or state securities law violations, the party seeking indemnification shall
place before the court the position of the Securities and Exchange Commission, the position of the Massachusetts Securities Division, the Pennsylvania Securities Commission, the Tennessee Securities Division and the position of any other applicable
state securities division which requires disclosure with respect to the issue of indemnification for securities law violations.

herein prohibited. 
  
 (e) 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 advancement; 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 4.6. 
  
 (f) The term “Managing Owner” as used in this Section 4.6 and in
the immediately preceding Section 4.5 shall only include an Affiliate of the Managing Owner 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.

  

 C-21 

 

 (g) 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 the 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. 
  
 SECTION 4.7 Expenses.

Interests under applicable federal and state law, and any other expenses actually incurred and, directly or indirectly, related to the organization of the Trust or the initial and continuous offering of the Interests, including, but not limited to,

limitations imposed by the NASAA Guidelines as in effect on the date hereof, except to the extent that such limitations are amended to become more restrictive, in which event such expenses will not exceed such more restrictive limitations.

  

 C-22 

 

 (c) The Managing Owner or any Affiliate of the Managing Owner may only be reimbursed for the actual cost
to the Managing Owner or any 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 any Affiliate thereof for indirect expenses incurred in
performing services for 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 4.8
Compensation to the Managing Owner. Except as provided in Section 4.7(b)(I), the Managing Owner shall not, in its capacity as Managing Owner, receive any salary, fees, profits or distributions. The Managing Owner shall, in its capacity as an
Interestholder, be entitled to receive allocations and distributions pursuant to the provisions of this Trust Agreement. 
  
 SECTION 4.9 Other Business of Interestholders. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, any of the Interestholders and any shareholder,
officer, director, employee or other person holding a legal or beneficial interest in an entity which is an Interestholder, 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. The Managing Owner and its Affiliates shall not engage in a venture competitive with the Trust except where such
venture will not have an adverse economic effect on the business of the Trust.

all Limited Owners and the Trustee and the prior approval of Limited Owners holding at least a majority in interest (over 50%) of the outstanding Interests (excluding Interests of the Managing Owner). If the withdrawing Managing Owner is the last
remaining Managing Owner, Limited Owners holding at least a majority in interest (over 50%) of the outstanding Interests (not including Interests held by the Managing Owner) may vote to elect and appoint, prior to the withdrawal, a successor
Managing Owner who shall carry on the business of the Trust. If the Managing Owner withdraws as Managing Owner and the Limited Owners or remaining Managing Owner elect to continue the Trust, the withdrawing Managing Owner shall pay all expenses
incurred as a result of its withdrawal. In the event of the withdrawal of the Managing Owner, the Managing Owner shall be entitled to redeem its General Interests at their Net Asset Value per Interest as of the next permissible Redemption Date.

  
 SECTION 4.11 Authorization of Registration Statement.
Each Limited Owner (or any permitted assignee thereof) hereby agrees that the Managing Owner is authorized to execute, deliver and perform the agreements, acts, transactions and matters contemplated hereby or described in or contemplated by the

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 of the

 ARTICLE V 
  
 TRANSFERS OF INTERESTS 
  
 SECTION 5.1 General Prohibition. 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 Interests or any part of his right, title and interest in the capital or profits of 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 Interests.

  
 (a) Upon an Event of Withdrawal (as defined in Section 13.1),
the Managing Owner’s General Interests 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 statue, 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 of 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 Interests 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 4.10 or an Event of Withdrawal or assignment of Interests for purposes of Section 5.2(a) or 5.2(c). 
  

(c) Upon assignment of all of its Interests, the Managing Owner shall not cease to be a Managing Owner of the Trust, or to have the power to exercise
any rights or powers 
  

 C-24 

 

 as a Managing Owner, or to have liability for the obligations 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. 
  
 SECTION 5.3 Transfer of Limited Interests. 
  
 (a) Permitted assignees of the Limited Owners shall be admitted as substitute Limited Owners, pursuant to this Article V, only upon the consent of the Managing Owner, which may be withheld in the Managing Owner’s
sole and absolute discretion in order to maintain the Trust’s tax classification as a partnership, to avoid having the Trust classified as a publicly traded partnership or to avoid adverse legal consequences to the Trust. 
  
 (i) A substituted Limited Owner is a permitted assignee
admitted to the Trust with all the rights and powers of a Limited Owner hereunder. If all of the conditions provided in Section 5.3(b) below are satisfied, the Managing Owner shall admit permitted assignees into the Trust as Limited Owners by making
an entry on the books and records of the Trust reflecting that such permitted assignees have been admitted as Limited Owners, and such permitted assignees will be deemed Limited Owners at such time as such admission is reflected on the books and
records of the Trust. 
  
 (ii) A permitted
assignee is a person to whom a Limited Owner has assigned his Limited Interests with the consent of the Managing Owner, as provided below in Section 5.3(d), but who has not become a substituted Limited Owner. A permitted assignee shall have no right
to vote, to obtain any information on or account of the Trust’s transactions or to inspect the Trust’s books, but shall only be entitled to receive the share of the profits, or the return of the capital contribution, to which his assignor
would otherwise be entitled as set forth in Section 5.3(d) below. Each Limited Owner agrees that any permitted assignee may become a substituted Limited Owner without the further act or consent of any Limited Owner, regardless of whether his
permitted assignee becomes a substituted Limited Owner. 
  
 (iii) A Limited Owner shall bear all costs (including attorneys’ and accountants’ fees) related to any transfer, assignment, pledge or encumbrance of his Limited Interests. 
  
 (b) No permitted assignee of the whole or any portion of a Limited
Owner’s Limited Interests shall have the right to become a substituted Limited Owner in place of his assignor unless all of the following conditions are satisfied: 
  
 (i) The written consent of the Managing Owner to such substitution shall be obtained, the granting or denial
of which shall be within the sole and absolute discretion of the Managing Owner in order to maintain the Trust’s tax classification as a partnership, to avoid having the Trust classified as a publicly traded partnership or to avoid adverse
legal consequences to the Trust. 
  

 C-25 

 

 (ii) A duly executed and acknowledged written instrument of assignment has been filed
with the Trust setting forth the intention of the assignor that the permitted assignee become a substituted Limited Owner in his place; 
  
 (iii) The assignor and permitted assignee execute and acknowledge and/or deliver such other instruments as the Managing Owner may deem
necessary or desirable to effect such admission, including his execution, acknowledgement and delivery to the Managing Owner, as a counterpart to this Trust Agreement, a Power of Attorney in the form set forth in the Subscription Agreement; and

  
 (iv) Upon the request of the Managing Owner,
an opinion of the Trust’s independent legal counsel is obtained to the effect that (i) the assignment will not jeopardize the Trust’s tax classification as a partnership or cause the Trust to be deemed a publicly traded partnership, and
(ii) the assignment does not violate this Trust Agreement or the Business Trust Statute. 
  
 (c) Any person admitted to the Trust as an Interestholder shall be subject to all of the provisions of this Trust Agreement as if an original signatory hereto. 
  
 (d) (i) Subject to the provisions of Section 5.3(e) below, compliance with
the suitability standards imposed by the Trust for the purchase of new Interests, applicable federal securities and state “Blue Sky” laws and the rules of any other applicable governmental authority, a Limited Owner shall have the right to
assign all or any of his Limited Interests to any assignee by a written assignment (on a form acceptable to the Managing Owner) the terms of which are not in contravention of any of the provisions of this Trust Agreement, which assignment has been
executed by the assignor and received by the Trust and recorded on the books thereof. An assignee of a Limited Interest (or any interest therein) will not be recognized as a permitted assignee without the consent of the Managing Owner, which consent
the Managing Owner shall withhold only under the following circumstances: (A) if necessary, in the judgment of the Managing Owner (and upon receipt of an opinion of counsel to this effect), to preserve the classification of the Trust as a
partnership for federal income tax purposes or to preserve the characterization or treatment of Trust income or loss; or (B) if, as a result of such assignment, the Trust would be unable to satisfy at least one of the safe harbors for avoid
treatment as a publicly traded partnership provided in IRS Notice 88-75 (or under other safe harbors established by the IRS that protect against treatment as a publicly traded partnership); or (C) if such assignment is effectuated through an
established securities market or a secondary market (or the substantial equivalent thereof). The Managing Owner shall withhold its consent to assignments made under the foregoing circumstances, and shall exercise such right by taking any actions as
it seems necessary or appropriate in its reasonable discretion so that such transfers or assignments of rights are not in fact recognized, and the assignor or transferor continues to be recognized by the Trust as an Interestholder for all purposes
hereunder, including the payment of any cash distribution. he Managing Owner shall incur no liability to any investor or prospective investor for any action or inaction by it in connection with the foregoing, provided it acted in good faith.

  

 C-26 

 

 (i) Except as specifically provided in this Trust Agreement, a permitted assignee of an
Interest shall be entitled to receive distributions from the Trust attributable to the interest acquired by reason of such assignment from and after the effective date of the assignment of such interest to him. The “effective date” of an
assignment of a Limited Interest as used in this clause shall be the first day of the next succeeding calendar month, provided the Managing Owner shall have been in receipt of the written instrument of assignment for at least thirty (30) days prior
thereto. If the assignee is (A) an ancestor or descendant of the Limited Owner, (B) the personal representative or heir of a deceased Limited Owner, (C) the trustee of a trust whose beneficiary is the Limited Owner or another person to whom a
transfer could otherwise be made or (D) the shareholders, partners, or beneficiaries of a corporation, partnership or trust upon Its termination or liquidation, then the “effective date” of an assignment of an interest in the Trust shall
be the first day of the calendar month immediately following the month in which the written instrument of assignment is received by the Managing Owner. 
  
 (ii) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trust and the Managing Owner shall be entitled to treat the permitted assignor
of such interest as the absolute owner thereof in all respects, and shall incur no liability for distributions made in good faith to him, until such time as the written assignment has been received by, and recorded on the books of, the Trust.

  
 (e) (i) No assignment or transfer of an interest in the Trust
may be made which would result in the Limited Owners and permitted assignees of the Limited Owners owning, directly or indirectly, individually or in the aggregate, five percent (5%) or more of the stock of the Managing Owner or any related person
as defined in Sections 267(b) and 707(b)(1) of the Code. f any such assignment or transfer would otherwise be made by bequest, inheritance of operation of law, the Interest transferred shall be deemed sold by the transferor to the Trust immediately
prior to such transfer in the same manner as provided in this Section 5.3(e)(iii). 
  
  
 (ii) No assignment or transfer of an interest in the Trust may be made which would contravene the NASAA
Guidelines, as adopted in any state in which the proposed transferor and transferee reside including, without limitation, the restriction set forth in Paragraph F(2) of Article V thereof, which precludes any assignment (except for assignments by
gift, inheritance, intrafamily assignment, family dissolutions and transfers to affiliates), which would result in either the assignee or the assignor holding Interests valued at less than $5,000 (or $2,000 in the case if IRAs), provided, however,
that this limitation shall not apply in respect of a Limited Owner wishing to assign its or his entire interest in the Trust. 
  
 (iii) Anything else to the contrary contained herein notwithstanding: (A) In any particular twelve (12) consecutive month period no
assignment or transfer of an interest in the Trust may be made which would result in increasing the aggregate total of Interests previously assigned and/or transferred in said period to forty-nine percent (49%) or more of the outstanding Interests.
This limitation is hereinafter referred to as the “forty-nine percent (49%) limitation”; (B) Clause (ii)(A) hereof shall not apply to a transfer by gift, bequest or 
  

 C-27 

 

 inheritance, or a transfer to the Trust, and, for purposes of the forty-nine percent (49%) limitation,
any such transfer shall not be treated as such; (C) If, after the forty-nine percent (49%) limitation is reached in any consecutive twelve (12) month period, a transfer of an Interest would otherwise take place by operation of law (but not including
any transfer referred to in clause (iii)(B) hereof) and would cause a violation of the forty-nine percent (49%) limitation, then said Interest(s) shall be deemed to have been sold by the transferor to the Trust in liquidation of said Interest(s)
immediately prior to such transfer for a liquidation price equal to the Net Asset Value of said Interest(s) on such date of transfer. The liquidation price shall be paid within ninety (90) days after the date of the transfer. 
  
 (f) The Managing Owner, in its sole discretion, may cause the Trust to make,
refrain from making, or once having made, to revoke, the election referred to in Section 754 of the Code, and any similar election provided by state or local law, or any similar provision enacted in lieu thereof. 
  
 (g) The Managing Owner, in its sole discretion, may cause the Trust to make,
refrain from making, or once having made, to revoke the election by a qualified fund under Section 988(c)(l)(E)(V), and any similar election provided by state or local law, or any similar provision enacted in lieu thereof. 
  
 (h) Each Limited Owner hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Trust
and each Interestholder against any and all losses, damages, liabilities or expense (including, without limitation, tax liabilities or loss of tax benefits) arising, directly or indirectly, as a result of any transfer or purported transfer by such
Limited Owner in violation of any provision contained in this Section 5.3.

capital account with respect to such Interest shall be eliminated on the Redemption Date. 
  
 (ii) Disposition Gain realized during any calendar month shall be allocated first among all Interestholders whose book capital accounts

6.3(b)(i) above) in the ratio that each such Interestholder’s excess shall bear to all such Interestholder’s excesses. 
  
 (iii) Disposition Gain realized during any calendar month that remains after the allocation pursuant to Section 6.3(b)(ii) above shall be

the current calendar month, described in Section 6.3(b)(i) above) in the ratio that each such Interestholder’s excess shall bear to all such Interestholders’ excesses. 
  
 (v) Disposition Loss realized during any calendar month that remains after the allocation pursuant to
Section 6.3(b)(iv) above shall be allocated to those Interestholders who were Interestholders during such calendar month in the ratio that each such Interestholder’s book capital account bears to all such Interestholders’ book capital
accounts for such calendar month. 
  
 (c) The tax allocations
prescribed by this Section 6.3 shall be made to each holder of an Interest whether or not the holder is a substituted Limited Owner. For purposes of this Section 6.3, tax allocations shall be made to the Managing Owner’s Interests on an
Interest-equivalent basis. 
  
 (d) The allocation of income and
loss (and items thereof) for federal income tax purposes set forth in this Section 6.3 is intended to allocate taxable income and loss among Interestholders generally in the ratio and to the extent that net profit and net loss shall be allocated to
such Interestholders under Section 6.2 so as to eliminate, to the extent possible, any disparity between an Interestholder’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. 
  
 (e) Notwithstanding this Section 6.3, if
after taking into account any distributions to be made with respect to such Interest for the relevant period pursuant to Section 6.4 herein, any allocation would produce a deficit in the book capital account of an Interest, the portion of such
allocation that would create such a deficit shall instead be allocated pro rata to the book capital accounts of the other Interests held by the same Interestholder (subject to the same limitation) and, as to any balance, shall be allocated pro rata
to the book capital accounts of all the remaining Interestholders (subject to the same limitation). 
  
 SECTION 6.4 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, which the Trust shall make with respect to the Interests; provided, however, that the Trust shall not make any distribution that violates the Business 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 VIII) shall be allocated among the holders of record of Interests in the ratio in which
the number of Interests held of record by each of them bears to the number of Interests held of record by all of the Interestholders as of the record date of such distribution; provided, further, however, that any distribution made in respect of an
Interest shall not exceed the book capital account for such Interest. 
  

 C-30 

 

 SECTION 6.5 Admissions of Interestholders; Transfers. For purposes of this Article VI,
Interestholders shall be deemed admitted, and a tax and book capital account shall be established in respect of the Interests acquired by such Interestholder or in respect of additional Interests acquired by an existing Interestholder, as of the
first day of the calendar month following the calendar month in which such Interestholder’s subscription or additional capital contribution, as the case may be, is accepted, or the transfer of Interests to such Interestholder is recognized,
except that persons accepted as subscribers to the Trust pursuant to Section 3.2(b) shall be deemed admitted on the date determined pursuant to such Section. Any Interestholder to whom an Interest had been transferred shall succeed to the tax and
book capital accounts attributable to the Interest transferred. 
  
 SECTION 6.6 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 Federal, state or local or any foreign taxing authority in respect of any Interestholder’s allocable share of Trust income, the amount of such taxes
shall be considered a loan by the Trust to such Interestholder, and such Interestholder 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 Interestholder shall also be liable for (and the Managing Owner shall be entitled to redeem additional Interests of the foreign Interestholder 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 Interestholder in respect of its Interests so redeemed, or in respect of any other actual distribution by the Trust to such Interestholder, shall be reduced by any obligations
owed to the Trust by the Interestholder, 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 Interestholder shall be treated as an actual distribution to such Interestholder for all purposes of this Trust Agreement. 
  
 ARTICLE VII 
  
 REDEMPTIONS 
  
 SECTION 7.1 Redemption of Interests. The Interestholders recognize that the profitability of the Trust depends upon long-term and uninterrupted
investment of capital. It is agreed, therefore, that Trust profits and gains may be automatically reinvested, and that distributions, if any, of profits and gains to the Interestholders will be on a limited basis. Nevertheless, the Interestholders
contemplate the possibility that one or more of the Limited Owners may elect to realize and withdraw profits, or withdraw capital through the redemption of Interests prior to the dissolution of the Trust. In that regard and subject to the provisions
of Section 4.2(h): 
  
 (a) Subject to the conditions set forth in
this Article VII, each Limited Owner (or any permitted assignee thereof) shall have the right to redeem any Limited Interest or portion 
  

 C-31 

 

 thereof that he owns immediately following the close of business on the last day of a Fiscal Quarter following the date
the Managing Owner is in receipt of written notice of redemption for at least ten (10) Business Days (a “Redemption Date”), commencing with the end of the first full calendar quarter of Trust trading activity. Interests will be redeemed on
a “first in, first out” basis based on time of receipt of redemption requests. If an Interestholder (or permitted assignee thereof) is permitted to redeem any or all of his Interests as of a date other than a Redemption Date, such
adjustments in the determination and allocation among the Interestholders of Disposition Gain, Disposition Loss, Profits, Losses and items of income or deduction for tax accounting purposes shall be made as are necessary or appropriate to reflect
and give effect to the redemption. 
  
 (b) In the event that the
Net Asset Value per Interest as of the close of any Business Day shall decrease to less than fifty percent (50%) of the Net Asset Value per Interest as of the last day of the preceding Fiscal Quarter, Limited Owners shall be given notice of such
event, as provided in Section 9.4 hereof. In such event, (i) the Managing Owner will cease its commodity trading activities for twenty (20) Business Days and (ii) Limited Owners shall be permitted to redeem one or more whole or fractional Interests
that they own by notifying the Managing Owner of their intent to redeem. Such special redemptions will be effective as of the twentieth (20th) Business Day following the mailing date of the notice described in Section 9.4 hereof (the “Special
Redemption Date”), provided the Managing Owner is in receipt of such notice for a least five (5) Business Days. Interests will be valued as of the close of business on the Special Redemption Date. 
  
 (c) The value of an Interest for purposes of redemption shall be the book
capital account balance of such Interest at the close of business on the Redemption Date, less any amount owing by such Limited Owner (and his permitted assignee, if any) to the Trust pursuant to Sections 4.6(g), 5.3(h) or 6.6 of this Trust
Agreement. If redemption of an Interest shall be requested by a permitted assignee, all amounts which shall be owed to the Trust under Sections 4.6(g), 5.3(h) or 6.6 hereof by the Interestholder of record, as well as all amounts which shall be owed
by all permitted assignees of such Interests, shall be deducted from the Net Asset Value of such Interests upon redemption. 
  
 (d) The effective date of redemption shall be the Redemption Date and payment of the value of the redeemed Interests generally shall be made within ten
(10) Business Days following the Redemption Date; provided, that all liabilities, contingent or otherwise, of the Trust, except any liability to Interestholders on account of their capital contributions, have been paid or there remains property of
the Trust sufficient to pay them; and provided further, that under extraordinary circumstances as may be determined by the Managing Owner in its sole discretion, including, but not limited to, the inability to liquidate Commodity positions as of
such Redemption Date, or default or delay in payments due the Trust from commodity brokers, banks or other persons, or significant administrative hardship, the Trust may in turn delay payment to Limited Owners requesting redemption of Interests of
the proportionate part of the value of redeemed Interests represented by the sums which are the subject of such default or delay, in which event payment for redemption of such Interests will be made to Limited Owners as soon thereafter as is
practicable. A Limited Owner may revoke his notice of intent to redeem on or prior to the Redemption Date by written instructions to the Managing Owner. If a Limited Owner revokes his notice of intent to redeem and thereafter wishes to redeem, such
Limited 
  

 C-32 

 

 Owner will be required to submit written notice thereof in accordance with Section 7.1(d) and will be redeemed on the
first Redemption Date to occur after the Managing Owner shall have been in receipt of such written notice for at least ten (10) Business Days. 
  
 (e) A Limited Owner wishing to redeem Interests must provide the Managing Owner with written notice of his intent to redeem, which notice shall specify
the name and address of the redeeming Limited Owner and the amount of Limited Interests sought to be redeemed. The notice of redemption shall be in the form annexed to the Prospectus or in any other form acceptable to the Managing Owner and shall be
mailed or delivered to the principal place of business of the Managing Owner. Such notice must include representations and warranties that the redeeming Limited Owner is the lawful and beneficial owner of the Interests to be redeemed and that such
Interests are not subject to any pledge or otherwise encumbered in any fashion. In certain circumstances, the Trust may require additional documents, such as, but not limited to, trust instruments, death certificates, appointments as executor or
administrator or certificates of corporate authority. Limited Owners requesting redemption shall be notified-in writing within ten (10) Business Days following the Redemption Date whether or not their Interests will be redeemed, unless payment for
the redeeming Interests is made within that ten (10) Business Day period, in which case the notice of acceptance of the redemption shall not be required. 
  
 (f) The Managing Owner may suspend temporarily any redemption if the effect of such redemption, either alone or in conjunction with other redemptions,
would be to impair the Trust’s ability to operate in pursuit of its objectives. In addition, the Managing Owner may mandatorily redeem Interests pursuant to Section 4.2(h). 
  
 (g) Interests that are redeemed shall be extinguished and shall not be retained or reissued by the Trust. 
  
 (h) Except as discussed above, all requests for redemption in proper form
will be honored, and the Trust’s positions will be liquidated to the extent necessary to discharge its liabilities on the Redemption Date. 
  
 SECTION 7.2 Redemption By the Managing Owner. Notwithstanding any provision in this Trust Agreement to the contrary, for so long as it shall act as
the Trust’s Managing Owner, the Managing Owner shall not transfer or redeem any of its General Interests to the extent that any such transfer or redemption would result in the Managing Owner and/or its Affiliates having less than a one percent
(1%) interest in the Trust. 
  
 ARTICLE VIII 
  
 THE LIMITED OWNERS 
  
 SECTION 8.1 Management or Control; Limited Liability. 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 
  

 C-33 

 

 obligations of the Trust in excess of his Capital Contribution plus his share of the Trust Estate and profits remaining
in the Trust, if any. Except as provided herein, each Interest 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 his capacity as a Limited Owner,
nor shall any Limited Owner have a drawing account or earn interest on his contribution. 
  
 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 information of 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 such information as is set forth in Section 4.3(1) hereof. In
the event that the Managing Owner neglects or refuses to produce or mail to a Limited Owner a copy of the information set forth in Section 4.3(1) hereof, 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 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 federal or state law.

  
 (b) The Limited Owners shall receive from the Trust 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 or upon a mandatory redemption effected by the Managing Owner
pursuant to Section 4.2(h) hereof, Limited Owners shall have the right to demand the return of their capital account only upon the dissolution and winding up of the Trust. 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. No Limited Owner shall have the right to bring an action for partition against the
Trust. 
  
 (d) Limited Owners holding at least a majority in
interest (over 50%) of the outstanding Interests (not including Interests held by the Managing Owner and its Affiliates, including the commodity broker) may vote to (i) continue the Trust as provided in Section 13. 1(b), (ii) approve the voluntary
withdrawal of the Managing Owner and elect a successor Managing Owner as provided in Section 4.10, (iii) remove the Managing Owner on reasonable prior written notice to the Managing Owner, (iv) elect and appoint one or more additional Managing
Owners, or consent to such matters as are set forth in Section 5.2(b), (v) approve a material change in the trading policies of the Trust, or the brokerage fees paid by the Trust, as set forth in the Prospectus, which change shall not be effective
without the prior written approval of 
  

 C-34 

 

 such majority, (vi) 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 and (vii) approve amendments to this Trust Agreement as set forth in Section 11.1 hereof, and in the case of (iv), (v) and (vi) in each instance on sixty (60) days’ prior written
notice. 
  
 (e) All Limited Owners may vote to elect a successor
Managing Owner as provided in Section 13.1(b). 
  
 Except as set
forth above, the Limited Owners shall have no voting or other rights with respect to the Trust, including, without limitation, any merger or consolidation of the Trust with any other Person. Prior to the exercise by the Limited Owners of the rights
set forth in Sections 8.2(d) and (e), the Trust will, if practicable, provide the Limited Owners with an opinion of independent legal counsel in each state where the Trust may be deemed to be conducting its business with respect to whether or not
such exercise would constitute such participation in the control of the Trust business as would adversely affect the Limited Owners limited liability under the laws of such state. 
  
 SECTION 8.3 Limitation on Liability. 
  
 (a) Except as provided in Sections 4.6(g), 5.3(h) and 6.6 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 his Capital Contribution and his 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
Subscription Agreement delivered in connection with his purchase of Interests. 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, to the extent of the Trust Estate, each Limited Owner
(excluding the Managing Owner to the extent of its ownership of any Limited Interests) against any claims of liability asserted against such Limited Owner solely because he is a beneficial owner of the Trust (other than for taxes for which such
Limited Owner is liable under Section 6.6 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.

(b) any change of Trustee; (c) any other material change affecting the compensation of any party within seven (7) Business Days of such occurrence; and (d) a description of any material effect on the Interests such changes may have. Included in such
notification shall be a description of the Limited Owners’ voting rights as set 
  

 C-36 

 

 forth in Section 8.2 hereof and redemption rights as set forth in Section 7.1 hereof. In addition, the Managing Owner
shall submit to the Securities Administrator of any State having jurisdiction over the Trust any information required to be filed with such Administrator, including, but not limited to, reports and statements required to be distributed to the
Limited Owners. 
  
 SECTION 9.6 Maintenance of Records. The

with this Trust Agreement. 
  
 SECTION 9.8 Registration of

 AMENDMENT OF TRUST AGREEMENT; MEETINGS 
  
 SECTION
11.1 Amendments to the Trust Agreement. 
  
 (a) Amendments
to this Trust Agreement may be proposed by the Managing Owner or by Limited Owners holding at least ten percent (10%) of the then outstanding Interests. 
  

 C-37 

 

 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 at least a majority in interest (over 50%) of the then outstanding Interests (excluding Interests held by the Managing Owner
and its Affiliates), or such higher percentage as may be required by applicable law, and upon receipt of an opinion of independent legal counsel as set forth in Section 8.2 hereof and 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 Interests than is required to amend this Trust Agreement under this Section 11.1, and/or the approval or affirmative vote of the Managing Owners, an
amendment to such provision(s) shall be effective only upon the written approval or affirmative vote of the minimum number of Interestholders 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 to make any other provisions with respect to matters or
questions arising under this Trust Agreement which will not be inconsistent with the provisions of the Trust Agreement or (iii) the Managing Owner deems advisable or considers necessary to comply with any applicable law, provided, however, that no
amendment shall be adopted pursuant to this clause (iii) unless the adoption thereof (A) is for the benefit of, or 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; or (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 federal income tax purposes. 
  
 (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 Article VI of this Trust Agreement relating to the allocations of Profits, Losses, Disposition Gain, Disposition Loss and distributions among the Interestholders if the Trust is advised at any time by the
Trust’s accountants or legal counsel that the allocations provided in Article VI of this Trust Agreement are unlikely to be respected for federal income tax purposes, either because of the promulgation of new or revised Treasury Regulations
under 
  

 C-38 

 

 Section 704 of the Code or other developments in the law. The Managing Owner is empowered to amend such provisions to the
minimum extent necessary in accordance with the advice of the accountants and counsel to effect the allocations and distributions provided in this Trust Agreement. New allocations made by the Managing Owner in reliance upon the advice of the
accountants or counsel described above shall be deemed to be made pursuant to the obligation of the Managing Owner to the Trust and the Limited Owners, and no such new allocation shall give rise to any claim or cause of action by any Limited Owner.

  
 (d) Upon amendment of this Trust Agreement, the Certificate of
Trust shall also be amended, if required by the Business Trust Statute, to reflect such change. 
  
 (e) No amendment shall be made to this Trust Agreement without the consent of the Trustee if such amendment adversely affects any of the rights, duties or
liabilities of the Trustee. 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. 
  
 SECTION 11.2 Meetings of the Trust. Meetings of the Trust may be
called by the Managing Owner and will be called by it upon the written request of Limited Owners holding at least ten percent (10%) of the outstanding Interests. Such call for a meeting shall be deemed to 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 mails, within fifteen (15) days after receipt of said request, written notice to all Interestholders 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. Interestholders 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 Interestholders by vote may be taken without a meeting on written consent setting forth the actions so taken, signed by the holders of the Interests having not less than the minimum number of
votes that would be necessary to authorize or take such action at a meeting at which holders of all Interests entitled to vote thereon were present and voted.

 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 expire on December 31, 2020, unless sooner terminated pursuant to the provisions of Article

 C-39 

 

 ARTICLE XIII 
  
 TERMINATION 
  
 SECTION 13.1 Events Requiring Dissolution. The Trust shall dissolve at any time upon the happening of any of the following events: 
  
 (a) The expiration of its term as provided in Article XII hereof.

  
 (b) The filing of a certificate of dissolution or revocation
of the charter (and the expiration of 90 days after the date of notice to the Managing Owner of revocation without a reinstatement of its charter) of the Managing Owner, or upon the withdrawal, removal, adjudication of bankruptcy or insolvency of
the Managing Owner (each of the 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 Interestholders 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 of a Managing Owner and a failure of the Interestholders to continue the business of the Trust and appoint a successor Managing Owner as provided in clause (b)(ii) above, within one hundred and twenty (120)
days of such Event of Withdrawal, Limited Owners holding a majority in interest (over 50%) of the outstanding Interests (not including Interests held by the Managing Owner and its Affiliates) may elect to continue the business of the Trust by
forming a new business 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. 
  
 (c) The occurrence of any event which
would make unlawful the continued existence of the Trust. 
  
 (d)

 (i) The determination of the Managing Owner that the
Trust’s aggregate net assets 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 of the Managing Owner

and distributed in the following order of priority: (a) to the expenses of liquidation and termination and to creditors, including Interestholders 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 Interestholders, 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 Interestholder to the Trust, after giving effect to all adjustments made pursuant to Article VI and all distributions theretofore made to the Interestholders 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 excess of 1.01% of the total Capital
Contributions of the Limited Owners over the capital previously contributed by the Managing 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 Interestholders in the Trust 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 Managing Owner shall execute and cause such certificate of cancellation to be filed in
