The Authorized Participant may revoke the PIN Number at any time upon written notice to the Creation and Redemption Agent, and the Authorized Participant shall be responsible for doing so in the event that it becomes aware that an unauthorized person has received access to its PIN Number or has or intends to use the PIN Number in an unauthorized manner.

If the Authorized Participant is offering and selling iShares in jurisdictions outside the several states, territories and possessions of the United States and is not otherwise required to be registered, qualified, or a member of the NASD as set forth in the preceding paragraph, the Authorized Participant nevertheless agrees to observe the applicable laws of the jurisdiction in which such offer and/or sale is made (e.g., it will not offer or sell iShares in any state or jurisdiction where they may not lawfully be offered and/or sold), to comply with the full disclosure requirements of the 1933 Act and the regulations promulgated thereunder and to conduct its business in accordance with the spirit of the NASD Conduct Rules.

Section 3.04. Futures Account. The Authorized Participant represents and warrants that it will arrange to receive any futures contracts owing to the Authorized Participant upon settlement of a Redemption Order at an account it establishes through a member of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange’s associated clearing organization (which may include such Authorized Participant), and will maintain such an account at all times it is an Authorized Participant. The Authorized Participant will provide notice of such account to the Settlement Agent in the upon request.

Section 3.05. Compliance with Certain Laws. If the Authorized Participant is subject to the requirements of the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism (“U.S.A. PATRIOT Act”), the Authorized Purchaser is in compliance with the anti-money laundering and related provisions of the U.S.A. PATRIOT Act.

Section 3.06. Authorized Participant Status.

a. The Authorized Participant understands and acknowledges that the method by which Baskets of iShares will be created and traded may raise certain issues under applicable securities laws. For example, because new Baskets of iShares may be issued and sold by any Trust on an ongoing basis, at any point a “distribution”, as such term is used in the 1933 Act, may occur. The Authorized Participant understands and acknowledges that some activities on its part, depending on the circumstances, may result in its being deemed a participant in a distribution in a manner which could render it a statutory underwriter and subject it to the prospectus delivery and liability provisions of the 1933 Act.

b. The Sponsor shall ensure that the Prospectus for each Trust contains an accurate and current listing of Authorized Participants for that Trust.

ROLE OF AUTHORIZED PARTICIPANT

Section 4.01. Independent Contractor. The Authorized Participant acknowledges and agrees that for all purposes of the Authorized Participant Agreement, the Authorized Participant will be deemed to be an independent contractor, and will have no authority to act as agent for any Trust or the Trustee in any matter or in any respect. The Authorized Participant agrees to make itself and its employees available, upon request, during normal business hours to consult with the Trustee, the Sponsor or their designees concerning the performance of the Authorized Participant’s responsibilities under the Authorized Participant Agreement; provided, however, that the Authorized Participant shall be under no obligation to divulge or otherwise disclose any information that the Authorized Participant reasonably believes (i) it is under legal obligation not to disclose, or (ii) it is confidential or proprietary in nature.

Section 4.02. Rights and Obligations of DTC Participant. In executing the Authorized Participant Agreement, the Authorized Participant agrees in connection with any purchase or redemption transactions in which it acts for an Authorized Participant Client or for any other DTC Participant or indirect participant, or any other person on whose behalf it holds iShares, that it shall extend to any such party all of the rights, and shall be bound by all of the obligations, of a DTC Participant in addition to any obligations that it undertakes hereunder or under the Procedures.

Section 4.03. Beneficial Owner Communications. The Authorized Participant agrees, subject to any limitations arising under federal or state securities laws relating to privacy or other obligations it may have to its customers, to assist the Trustee or the Sponsor in determining the ownership level of each beneficial owner relating to positions in iShares for any Trust that the Authorized Participant may hold as record holder or that may be held through the Authorized Participant as a DTC Participant. In addition, the Authorized Participant agrees, in accordance with applicable laws, rules and regulations, at the request of the Sponsor or the Trustee to forward to such beneficial owners written materials and communications received from the requesting party in sufficient quantities to allow mailing thereof to such beneficial owners, including notices, annual reports, disclosure or other informational materials and any amendments or supplements thereto that may be required to be sent by the Sponsor or the Trustee to such beneficial owners pursuant to the applicable Trust Agreement or applicable law or regulation, or that the Sponsor or the Trustee reasonably wishes to distribute, at its own expense, to such beneficial owners.

ARTICLE V

TAX MATTERS

Section 5.01. Tax Basis of Assets Contributed Upon Creation. With respect to any Creation of iShares, the Authorized Participant on behalf of itself and any Authorized Participant Client agrees that any property contributed in consideration for the creation of iShares shall have a basis for tax purposes equal to the fair market value of that property, and acknowledges that the applicable Trust and Investing Pool will rely upon such fair market value basis for purposes of determining and allocating items of income, gain, loss, deduction, basis and other tax items.

Section 5.02. Tax Basis of Basket Constituents Received Upon Redemption.

a. With respect to any Redemption of iShares held by an Authorized Participant for its own account, the Authorized Participant acknowledges that the basis for tax purposes in Basket Constituents that it receives from the applicable Trust in consideration for a redemption of iShares may be more or less than the fair market value of the Basket Constituents or the Authorized Participant’s basis in the iShares

S2-5

redeemed. The Authorized Participant will determine its basis for tax purposes in any Basket Constituent it receives from the applicable Trust in consideration for a redemption of iShares by reference to the tax basis of such Basket Constituent on the books of the applicable Trust immediately prior to the redemption, as such amount is reported to the Authorized Participant by the Settlement Agent, subject to adjustment as required under Section 732 or other applicable law. The Authorized Participant will report any built-in gain or loss on CERFs that it receives from the applicable Trust on redemption of iShares under the rules of section 1256 of the Code (absent a valid election to do otherwise), and, to the extent applicable, will report any offsetting gain or loss on the remaining iShares held by the Authorized Participant under the rules of section 475 of the Code. The Authorized Participant acknowledges that such reporting may result in a mismatch in the character or other tax attributes of gain or loss from CERFs and iShares.

b. With respect to any Redemption of iShares held by an Authorized Participant for an Authorized Participant Client, the Authorized Participant acknowledges on behalf of itself and such Authorized Participant Client that the basis for tax purposes in Basket Constituents received from the applicable Trust in consideration for the redemption of iShares may be more or less than the fair market value of the Basket Constituents or the Authorized Participant Client’s basis in the iShares redeemed. To the extent that the Authorized Participant reports to an Authorized Participant Client, the Internal Revenue Service or any other person the basis for tax purposes of any Basket Constituents it receives from the applicable Trust in consideration for a redemption of iShares on behalf of an Authorized Participant Client, the Authorized Participant will determine its basis by reference to the tax basis of such Basket Constituents on the books of the applicable Trust immediately prior to the redemption, as such amount is reported to the Authorized Participant by the Settlement Agent, subject to adjustment as required under Section 732 or other applicable law. The Authorized Participant will report any other tax items of an Authorized Participant Client (e.g., basis in iShares, or gain or loss amounts) in a manner consistent with the preceding sentence.

c. The Authorized Participant acknowledges on behalf of itself and any Authorized Participant Client that, to the extent that such Participant or Client is subject to the xxxx-to-market rules of section 475 of the Code, the basis of iShares and of any assets of the applicable Trust and Investing Pool shall be determined for purposes of sections 734(b) and 743(b) of the Code and for the purposes of the provisions of this Article V by treating such xxxx-to-market as having no effect on such basis.

Section 5.03. Treatment of Redemptions as Partial or Complete Redemptions.

a. The Authorized Participant represents with respect to each redemption of iShares held by the Authorized Participant for its own account that the receipt of Basket Constituents from the applicable Trust in connection with such redemption is a distribution other than in liquidation of the Authorized Participant’s interest in iShares (a “partial redemption”), unless it notifies the applicable Trust or its agent prior to the receipt of the Basket Constituents that such distribution is in liquidation of the Authorized Participant’s interest in iShares (a “complete redemption”). The Authorized Participant acknowledges that the applicable Trust and Investing Pool may report gain or loss and other tax items including the allocation of basis and adjustments to basis in reliance upon the assumption that any redemption of iShares is a partial redemption unless such notice is timely provided. The Authorized Participant will notify the applicable Trust or its agent within 5 Business Days of the receipt of the Basket Constituents of (i) any gain or loss arising from a redemption of iShares by the Authorized Participant in exchange for Basket Constituents, and (ii) any difference between the tax basis of such Basket Constituents on the books of the applicable Trust immediately prior to the redemption, as such amount is reported to the Authorized Participant, and the basis of the distributed Basket Constituents to the Authorized Participant (such gain or loss or basis difference, “section 734(b) items”), in a manner sufficient for such Trust and the applicable Investing Pool to adjust the basis of undistributed property held by such Trust and such Investing Pool under section 734(b) of the Code.

S2-6

b. To the extent that an Authorized Participant acts on behalf of an Authorized Participant Client in connection with a redemption of iShares, the Authorized Participant will inform the applicable Trust or its agent prior to the receipt of the Basket Constituents of any such redemption that constitutes a complete redemption, to the extent that such information is available to the Authorized Participant (for example, because the Client redeems all iShares that it holds through the Authorized Participant). The Authorized Participant acknowledges on behalf of itself and any Authorized Participant Client that redeems iShares that the applicable Trust and Investing Pool may report gain or loss and other tax items including the allocation of basis and adjustments to basis in reliance upon the assumption that any redemption of iShares is a partial redemption unless such notice is timely provided. The Authorized Participant will make commercially reasonable efforts to assist the applicable Trust and Investing Pool in determining the amount of section 734(b) items, if any, with respect to a redemption of iShares on behalf of an Authorized Participant Client.

Section 5.04. Tax Reporting.

a. An Authorized Participant will provide tax reporting information with respect to the applicable Trust and Investing Pool to or for the benefit of taxpayers for whom the Authorized Participant holds iShares as a nominee as required by law.

b. An Authorized Participant will furnish information to the applicable Trust and Investing Pool with respect to any taxpayer for whom the Authorized Participant holds iShares as a nominee as required under Treasury regulation section 1.6031(c)-1T or any successor thereto in addition to any information required by other provisions of this Article V.

c. An Authorized Participant will use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that any taxpayer for whom the Authorized Participant holds iShares as a nominee has provided IRS Form X-0, X-0XXX, or other forms or documentation qualifying as a withholding certificate or documentary evidence or other appropriate documentation within the meaning of Treasury regulation section 1.1441-1(c) or any successor thereto, as necessary to establish an exemption from withholding tax and backup withholding tax with respect to income of the applicable Trust and Investing Pool allocable to such investor. The Authorized Participant will act as an agent of the applicable Trust and Investing Pool in collecting and holding such forms or documentation, and annually will provide a copy of such forms to such Trust or its agent. Upon reasonable request by the applicable Trust or its agent, the Authorized Participant will provide the originals of such forms or documentation to the extent held by the Authorized Participant at that time and will assist such Trust in obtaining such original forms or documentation (or, to the extent originals are not available, copies thereof) from investors or other nominees to the extent not held by the Authorized Participant. The provisions of this Section 5.04(c) of the Authorized Participant Agreement are subject to, and may be modified by, any agreements between the Trustee, on behalf of the applicable Trust, and an Authorized Participant separate and apart from the Authorized Participant Agreement, that provide otherwise.

ARTICLE VI
