“Section 4. Service Fees. (a) Class 1 and Class 1a Service Fees. (1) Units in the Class 1 of Balanced Series, Beach Series, Xxxxxxxx/Xxxxxx Series, Currency Series and Xxxxxx Series. As compensation, the Selling Agent shall receive from the Managing Owner a service fee at an annual rate of up to 3.0% of the subscription amount of each subscription of Units in the Class 1 of the Series sold by it. After the expiration of twelve (12) months following the purchase of Units in the Class 1 of the Balanced Series, Beach Series, Xxxxxxxx/Xxxxxx Series, Currency Series and Xxxxxx Series of Units, the Selling Agent shall also receive a monthly or quarterly on-going service fee of up to 3.0% annually of the Net Asset Value of each Unit in the Class 1 sold by the Selling Agent on an on-going basis for customary on-going services provided to the Trust and its Limited Owners for commodities related brokerage services. Such on-going services may include, without limitation, advising Limited Owners of the Net Asset Value of the Trust, of the relevant Series of the Trust and of their Units in such Series, responding to Limited Owners’ inquiries about monthly statements and annual reports and tax information provided to them, advising Limited Owners whether to make additional capital contributions to the Trust or to redeem their Units, assisting with redemptions of Units, providing information to Limited Owners with respect to futures and forward market conditions and providing further services as may be requested by the Limited Owners.

As compensation, the Selling Agent shall receive from the Managing Owner a service fee at an annual rate of up to 3.0% of the subscription amount of each subscription of Units in the Class 1 or Class 1a, as applicable, of the Series sold by it. After the expiration of twelve (12) months following the purchase of Units in the Class 1a of the Balanced Series of Units or the Class 1 of the Long/Short Commodity Series of Units, and continuing until the expiration of forty (40) months following the purchase of such Class 1a Units or Class 1 Units, as applicable, of such Series, the Selling Agent shall also receive a monthly or quarterly on-going service fee of up to 3.0% annually of the Net Asset Value of each Unit in the Class 1 or Class 1a, as applicable, sold by the Selling Agent on an on-going basis for customary on-going services provided to the Trust and its Limited Owners for commodities related brokerage services. Such on-going services may include, without limitation, advising Limited Owners of the Net Asset Value of the Trust, of the relevant Series of the Trust and of their Units in such Series, responding to Limited Owners’ inquiries about monthly statements and annual reports and tax information provided to them, advising Limited Owners whether to

make additional capital contributions to the Trust or to redeem their Units, assisting with redemptions of Units, providing information to Limited Owners with respect to futures and forward market conditions and providing further services as may be requested by the Limited Owners.

(3) Units in the Class 1 of Long Only Commodity Series and Managed Futures Index Series. As compensation, the Selling Agent shall receive from the Managing Owner a service fee at an annual rate of up to 2.0% of the subscription amount of each subscription of Units in the Class 1 of the Series sold by it. After the expiration of twelve (12) months following the purchase of Units in the Class 1 of the Long Only Commodity Series and Managed Futures Index Series of Units, and continuing until the expiration of sixty (60) months following the purchase of Class 1 Units of such Series, the Selling Agent shall also receive a monthly or quarterly on-going service fee of up to 2.0% annually of the Net Asset Value of each Unit in the Class 1 sold by the Selling Agent on an on-going basis for customary on-going services provided to the Trust and its Limited Owners for commodities related brokerage services. Such on-going services may include, without limitation, advising Limited Owners of the Net Asset Value of the Trust, of the relevant Series of the Trust and of their Units in such Series, responding to Limited Owners’ inquiries about monthly statements and annual reports and tax information provided to them, advising Limited Owners whether to make additional capital contributions to the Trust or to redeem their Units, assisting with redemptions of Units, providing information to Limited Owners with respect to futures and forward market conditions and providing further services as may be requested by the Limited Owners.

(b) Calculation of service fee. (1) The initial service fee and on-going service fee for Class 1 Units in the Balanced Series, Beach Series, Xxxxxxxx/Xxxxxx Series, Currency Series, Xxxxxx Series and Long/Short Commodity Series, as well as Class 1a Units in the Balanced Series, shall be calculated according to the following scale:

Aggregate Amount of Investment in Units in the Class 1 or Class 1a:		Percentage:
$0 - $99,999		3.00	%
$100,000 - $499,999		2.50	%
$500,000 - $999,999		1.25	%
$1,000,000 and above		0.80	%

(2) The initial service fee and on-going service fee for Class 1 Units in the Long Only Commodity Series and Managed Futures Index Series shall be calculated according to the following scale:

Aggregate Amount of Investment in Units in the Class 1:		Percentage:
$0 - $499,999		2.00	%
$500,000 - $999,999		1.25	%
$1,000,000 and above		0.80	%

(3) The calculation of the initial service fee for incremental Unit purchases is based on the aggregate amount of Units held by an investor at the time of each Unit purchase (taking into account the right of accumulation). For example, if an investor purchases $75,000 in Class 1 Units of the Xxxxxxxx/Xxxxxx Series in one month, the Selling Agent shall receive an initial service fee of 3.00% of the purchase price of such Units. If such investor then purchases an additional $50,000 in Class 1 Units of the Xxxxxxxx/Xxxxxx Series three months later, the Selling Agent shall be paid an initial service fee of 2.50% of the purchase price of such Units. If such investor subsequently invests $500,000 in Class 1 Units of the Xxxxxxxx/Xxxxxx Series, the Selling Agent shall be paid an initial service fee of 1.25% of the purchase price of such Units.

(4) The initial service fee is calculated based upon the net asset value of the aggregate amount of Units in Class 1 or Class 1a, as applicable, at the time of such purchase and the service fee applicable thereof. The on-going service fee after the initial 12 months of each purchase has expired is calculated based upon the net asset value of the aggregate amount of Units in Class 1 or Class 1a, as applicable, at the end of such 12 month period(s).

(5) Using the above example (assuming no redemption of Units has occurred), the initial service fee for the initial twelve months will be 3.00% of the net asset value of the initial Unit purchase of $75,000; 2.50% of the net asset value of the additional Unit purchase of $50,000; and 1.25% of the net asset value of the additional Unit purchase of $500,000. One year from the initial Unit purchase of $75,000, the on-going service fee will be 1.25% of the net asset value of the Unit purchase of $75,000. One year after the second Unit purchase of $50,000, the on-going service fee will be calculated at a rate of 1.25% of the net asset value of the cumulative $125,000 investment. Finally, one year after the third Unit purchase of $500,000, the on-going service fee will be calculated at a rate of 1.25% of the net asset value of the entire investment of $625,000.

(c) Units in the Class 2 of each Series. With respect to Units in the Class 2 of each Series, the Selling Agent shall receive no initial service fees for any Unit in the Class 2 of the Series sold by it. The Managing Owner shall pay the Selling Agent customary ongoing service fees in an amount equal to a percentage of the Net Asset Value of such Units in the Class 2 as agreed to and set forth in a schedule to this Agreement as compensation for certain ongoing services provided to the Trust and its Limited Owners for commodities-related brokerage services. Such on-going services may include, without limitation, advising Limited Owners of the Net Asset Value of the Trust, of the relevant Series of the Trust and of their Units in such Series, responding to Limited Owners’ inquiries about monthly statements and annual reports and tax information provided to them, advising Limited Owners whether to make additional capital contributions to the Trust or to redeem their Units, assisting with redemptions of Units, providing information to Limited Owners with respect to futures and forward market conditions and providing further services as may be requested by the Limited Owners.

(d) In the event that the offering of Units of any Series is terminated prior to the initial escrow break for such Series, the Selling Agent shall not be entitled to any compensation in connection with the offering of such Series except for the reimbursement of reasonable and actual out-of-pocket expenses.”

2. Except as expressly amended and modified hereby, the Selling Agent Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

3. This Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. Signatures on this Agreement may be communicated by facsimile transmission and shall be binding upon the parties so transmitting their signatures. Counterparts with original signatures shall be provided to the other parties following the applicable facsimile transmission; provided, that the failure to provide the original counterpart shall have no effect on the validity or the binding nature of this Agreement.
