WITNESSETH:

WHEREAS, the Adviser is a registered investment adviser under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (the “Advisers Act”), and engages in the business of providing investment management services;

WHEREAS, the Adviser has entered into an Investment Advisory Agreement (“Advisory Agreement”) with KraneShares Trust (the “Trust”), a Delaware statutory trust;

WHEREAS, the Sub-Adviser is a registered investment adviser under the Advisers Act, and engages in the business of providing investment management services;

WHEREAS, the Adviser, subject to the approval of the Board of Trustees of the Trust (the “Board” or the “Trustees”), desires to retain the Sub-Adviser to render investment advisory and other services to the funds specified in Schedule A hereto, as amended from time to time, each a series of the Trust (each, a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds”), in the manner and on the terms hereinafter set forth; and

WHEREAS, the Sub-Adviser is willing to furnish such services to the Adviser and each Fund.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained, the sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, and each of the parties hereto intending to be legally bound, it is agreed as follows:

1. Duties of the Sub-Adviser.

(a)

The Sub-Adviser shall be responsible for securing any regulatory approvals, quotas and/or licenses that may be necessary or appropriate for each Fund’s operations or investment strategies, as set forth in each Fund’s registration statement, and as otherwise may reasonably be requested by the Adviser.

(b)

In addition, subject to supervision and oversight of the Adviser and the Board, the Sub-Adviser shall manage all of the securities and other assets of the Funds (the “Assets”) of the portion of each Fund allocated by the Adviser to the Sub-Adviser, including the purchase, retention and disposition of the Assets, in accordance with the Funds’ respective investment objectives, policies and restrictions as stated in each Fund’s prospectus and statement of additional information, as currently in effect and as amended or supplemented from time to time (referred to collectively as the “Prospectus”), the standards applicable to each Fund to qualify as a “regulated investment company” under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“Code”), and applicable law, regulations and interpretations and exemptions from the foregoing and subject to the following:

(i)

The Sub-Adviser shall determine from time to time what Assets will be purchased, retained or sold by the Funds, and what portion of the Assets will be invested or held uninvested in cash.

(ii)

In the performance of its duties and obligations under this Agreement, the Sub-Adviser shall act in conformity with the Trust’s Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust, and By-Laws, each as may be modified, amended or supplemented from time to time, the Prospectus, the instructions and directions of the Adviser and of the Board, the then-current terms and conditions of exemptive and no-action relief granted to or relied upon by the Trust, and the Trust’s policies and procedures. The Adviser undertakes to provide the Sub-Adviser with copies or other written notice of any amendments, modifications or supplements to any such above-mentioned documents. In the performance of its duties and obligations under this Agreement, the Sub-Adviser shall also comply in all material respects with the requirements of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the “1940 Act”), the Advisers Act, the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), all other applicable federal and state laws and regulations, as each is amended from time to time, and the rules promulgated by the primary listing exchange upon which a Fund’s shares trade. In this regard, the Sub-Adviser represents that it has adopted and implemented and will maintain in accordance with Rule 206(4)-7 under the Advisers Act, policies and procedures reasonably designed to (a) prevent violation by the Sub-Adviser and its supervised persons (as such term is defined by the Advisers Act) of the Advisers Act and the rules thereunder; and (b) to the extent that the Sub-Adviser’s activities or services could affect the Fund(s), policies and procedures, prevent violation of the federal securities laws (as such term is defined in Rule 38a-1 under the Investment Company Act) by the Fund(s) and the Sub-Adviser. Further, the Sub-Adviser shall maintain a disaster recovery and business continuity plan that is in accordance with applicable law and within industry standards.

(iii)

The Sub-Adviser shall determine the Assets to be purchased or sold by the Funds as provided in subparagraph (i) and will place orders with or through such persons, brokers or dealers chosen by the Sub-Adviser to carry out the policy with respect to brokerage as the Board or the Adviser may direct in writing from time to time, in conformity with all federal securities laws. The Sub-Adviser may also arrange for, in respect of the Funds, futures contract, derivative instrument and transaction, swap, spot or forward transaction (whether in relation to currency or any other property). The Sub-Adviser may open and maintain brokerage accounts of all types on behalf of and in the name of the Funds. The Sub-Adviser may enter into standard customer agreements with brokers and direct payments of cash, cash equivalents and securities and other property into such brokerage accounts as the Sub-Adviser deems desirable and appropriate. Subject to the obtaining the best price and execution reasonably available and consistent with Section 28(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act”), the Sub-Adviser is authorized to cause a Fund to pay a member of an exchange, broker or dealer an amount of commission for effecting a securities transaction in excess of the amount of commission another member of an exchange, broker or dealer would have charged for effecting that transaction, in such instances where the Sub-Adviser has determined in good faith that such amount of commission was reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage and research services provided by such member, broker or dealer, viewed in terms of either that particular transaction or the Sub-Adviser’s overall responsibilities with respect to such Fund and to other funds or clients for which the Sub-Adviser exercises investment discretion. The Sub-Adviser is authorized to direct portfolio transactions to a broker that is an affiliated person of the Adviser, Sub-Adviser or a Fund in accordance with such standards and procedures as may be approved by the Board in accordance with the 1940 Act and any applicable rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). The Sub-Adviser shall not divert any Fund’s portfolio securities transactions to a broker or dealer in consideration of such broker or dealer’s promotion or sales of shares of the Fund, any other series of the Trust, or any other registered investment company. On occasions when the Sub-Adviser deems the purchase or sale of a security to be in the best interest of the Fund(s) as well as other clients of the Sub-Adviser, the Sub-Adviser, to the extent permitted by applicable laws and regulations, may, but shall be under no obligation to, aggregate the securities to be purchased or sold to attempt to obtain a fair and reasonable result and efficient execution. Allocation of the securities so purchased or sold, as well as the expenses incurred in the transaction, will be made by the Sub-Adviser in the manner which the Sub-Adviser considers to be the most equitable and consistent with its fiduciary obligations to each Fund and to its other clients over time. The Adviser agrees that the Sub-Adviser and its affiliates may give advice and take action in the performance of their duties with respect to any of their other clients that may differ from advice given, or the timing or nature of actions take, with respect to the relevant Fund. The Adviser also acknowledges that the Sub-Adviser and its affiliates are fiduciaries to other entities, some of which have the same or similar investment objectives (and will hold the same or similar investments) as the Fund(s), and that the Sub-Adviser will carry out its duties hereunder together with its duties under such relationships.

(iv)

The Sub-Adviser shall assist the Adviser and any other relevant service provider in connection with any securities lending activities by the Funds.

(v)

The Sub-Adviser shall maintain all books and records with respect to transactions involving the Assets required by Rule 31a-1 under the 1940 Act and preserve such records for the periods prescribed by Rule 31a-2 under the 1940 Act. The Sub-Adviser shall timely furnish to the Adviser all information needed by the Adviser to keep the other books and records of the Fund required by Rule 31a-1 under the 1940 Act. The Sub-Adviser agrees that all records that it maintains on behalf of a Fund are property of the Fund and the Sub-Adviser will surrender promptly to the Fund any of such records upon the Fund’s request; provided, however, that the Sub-Adviser may retain a copy of such records.

(vi)

The Sub-Adviser shall provide the relevant Fund’s custodian on each business day with information relating to all transactions concerning the Assets and shall provide the Adviser with such information upon request of the Adviser and shall otherwise cooperate with and provide reasonable assistance to the Adviser, the Trust’s administrator, the Trust’s custodian and foreign custodians, the Trust’s transfer agent and pricing agents and all other agents and representatives of the Trust. The Sub-Adviser shall not hold, or have custody of, any asset of the Fund (or the Fund’s documents of title, if any) on behalf of the Fund or the Sub-Adviser. The Sub-Adviser will also provide the Adviser with such compliance reports and certifications relating to its duties under this Agreement and the federal securities laws or regulations as may be reasonably requested.

(vii)

The Sub-Adviser shall, when explicitly directed by the Adviser or the Board and consistent with the best interests of each Fund, be responsible for exercising all rights of security holders with respect to securities held by each Fund, including but not limited to: reviewing proxy solicitation materials, voting and handling proxies and converting, tendering exchanging or redeeming securities. The Sub-Adviser shall report to the Adviser in a timely manner a record of all proxies voted, in such form and format that complies with acceptable federal statutes and regulations (e.g., requirements of Form N-PX), including a record of all proxies not voted and/or voted inconsistently with Sub-Adviser’s proxy voting guidelines. The Sub-Adviser shall certify at least annually or more often as may reasonably be requested by the Adviser, as to the compliance of its proxy voting policies and procedures with applicable federal statutes and regulations. If the Adviser chooses to be responsible for voting any proxies for the Funds, the Sub-Adviser will immediately forward any proxy solicited by or with respect to the issuers of securities in which assets of a Fund are invested to the Adviser or to any agent of the Adviser designated by the Adviser in writing.

(viii)

The Sub-Adviser shall maintain books and records with respect to the Funds’ investment transactions and keep the Adviser fully informed on an ongoing basis of all material facts concerning the Sub-Adviser and its key investment personnel providing services to the Funds. The Sub-Adviser shall furnish to the Adviser or the Board regular, periodic and special reports, balance sheets or financial information, and such other information with regard to its affairs as the Adviser or Board may reasonably request; and the Sub-Adviser will attend meetings with the Adviser and/or the Board, as reasonably requested, to discuss the foregoing. Upon the request of the Adviser, the Sub-Adviser shall also furnish to the Adviser any other information relating to the Assets that is required to be filed by the Adviser or the Trust or sent to shareholders under the federal securities laws (including the rules adopted thereunder) or any exemptive or other relief from the SEC on which the Adviser, the Trust or a Fund relies.

(ix)

The Sub-Adviser shall monitor the Assets owned by the Fund(s) and, in accordance with procedures established by the Board, as amended from time to time, and in conjunction with the Adviser, promptly notify the Adviser and the Trust’s Fund Accounting Agent of Assets that the Sub-Adviser believes should be fair valued in accordance with the Trust’s Valuation Procedures. The Sub-Adviser will provide reasonable assistance in determining the fair value of the Assets, as necessary, and use reasonable efforts to arrange for the provision of valuation information or a price(s) from a party(ies) independent of the Sub-Adviser for which market prices are not readily available, it being understood that the Sub-Adviser will not be responsible for determining the value of any such security.

(x)

The Sub-Adviser shall provide reasonable assistance to the Adviser in the preparation of any regulatory filings and required disclosures relating to a Fund, as requested by the Adviser from time to time. The Sub-Adviser will promptly notify the Adviser if it becomes aware of any material misstatement or omission in a Fund’s registration statement, as amended and/or supplemented from time to time.

(xi)

The Funds agree that any entity or person associated with Adviser or Sub-Adviser that is a member of a national securities exchange is authorized to effect any transaction on such exchange for the account of the Funds that is permitted by Section 11(a) of the Exchange Act, and the Funds consent to the retention of compensation for such transactions.

(xii)

Absent any written notice from the Adviser to the Sub-Adviser to the contrary, the Sub-Adviser shall be responsible for managing the entire portion of each Fund. Where it is not, the Sub-Adviser shall not consult with any other subadviser of such Fund concerning transactions for the Fund in securities or other assets; provided, that this shall not be deemed to prohibit the Sub-Adviser from consulting with any of its affiliated persons concerning transactions in securities or other assets. This also shall not be deemed to prohibit the Sub-Adviser from consulting with any of the other covered advisers concerning compliance with paragraphs (a) and (b) of Rule 12d3-1 under the Investment Company Act.
