The
Depositor is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing as a foreign
company (or is exempt from such requirements) and has obtained all necessary
licenses and approvals in each jurisdiction in which failure to so qualify

the
Holders of the Up-MACRO Tradeable Shares hereunder.
(c) Due
Authorization.
The

the execution and delivery to the Trustee of the Up-MACRO Tradeable Shares
by
the Depositor and the consummation by the Depositor of the transactions provided

have been duly authorized by the Depositor by all necessary action on the part
of the Depositor and this Trust Agreement will remain, from the time of its
execution, an official record of the Depositor.
(d) No
Conflict.
The
execution and delivery by the Depositor of this Trust Agreement and the Up-MACRO
Tradeable Shares, the performance by the Depositor of the transactions
contemplated by this Trust Agreement and the fulfillment by the Depositor of
the
terms hereof will not conflict with, result in any breach of any of the material
terms and provisions of, or constitute (with or without notice or lapse of
time
or both) a material default under, any indenture, contract, agreement, mortgage,
deed of trust, or other instrument to which the Depositor is a party or by
which
it or any of its properties are bound.
10
(e) No
Violation.
The
execution and delivery by the Depositor of this Trust Agreement and the Up-MACRO
Tradeable Shares, the performance by the Depositor of the transactions
contemplated by this Trust Agreement and its obligations hereunder and the

violate any Requirements of Law applicable to the Depositor.

Proceedings.
There
are no proceedings or investigations pending or, to the best knowledge of the

(i) asserting the invalidity of this Trust Agreement or the Up-MACRO Tradeable
Shares, (ii) seeking to prevent the issuance of the Up-MACRO Tradeable Shares
or
the consummation of any of the transactions contemplated by this Trust Agreement
or the Up-MACRO Tradeable Shares, (iii) seeking any determination or ruling
that, in the reasonable judgment of the Depositor, would materially and
adversely affect the performance by the Depositor of its obligations under
this
Trust Agreement, (iv) seeking any determination or ruling that would materially
and adversely affect the validity or enforceability of this Trust Agreement
or
the Up-MACRO Tradeable Shares or (v) seeking to affect adversely the income
tax
attributes of the Up-MACRO Tradeable Trust under the federal or applicable
state
income or franchise tax systems.
(g) All
Consents Required.
All
approvals, authorizations, consents, orders or other actions of any Person
or of
any Governmental Authority required in connection with the execution and
delivery by the Depositor of this Trust Agreement and the Up-MACRO Tradeable
Shares, the performance by the Depositor of the transactions contemplated by
this Trust Agreement and its obligations hereunder and the Up-MACRO Tradeable
Shares and the fulfillment by the Depositor of the terms hereof and thereof
have
been obtained.
(h) Bankruptcy;
Insolvency.
No
Event of Bankruptcy with respect to the Depositor has occurred which would
materially and adversely affect the validity or enforceability of this Trust
Agreement or the Up-MACRO Tradeable Shares.
(i) Binding
Obligation.
This
Trust Agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the
Depositor, enforceable against the Depositor in accordance with its terms,
except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws now or hereafter
in
effect which affect the enforcement of creditors' rights in general, and except
as such enforceability may be limited by general principles of equity (whether
considered in a suit at law or in equity).
(j) No
Conflicting Claim.
Neither
the Depositor nor any Person claiming through or under the Depositor has any
claim to or interest in the Securities Account, the Distribution Account or
the
Netting Account.
The
representations and warranties of the Depositor set forth in this Section
2.4
shall
survive following the execution of this Trust Agreement and shall be deemed
to
be made on each Issuance Date. Upon discovery by the Depositor, the Trustee
or
the Administrative Agent of a breach of any of the representations and
warranties by the Depositor set forth in this Section

the
party discovering such breach shall give prompt written notice to the other

Administrative Agent in attempting to cure any such breach.
11
SECTION
2.5 Form
of
Shares; Book-Entry System; Transferability of Up-MACRO Tradeable
Shares.
(a) Form
of Shares.
The
Up-MACRO Tradeable Shares shall be evidenced by one or more global certificates
substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit
A
attached
hereto, with appropriate insertions, modifications and omissions as hereinafter
provided (each such certificate, a "Global
Certificate").
No
Up-MACRO Tradeable Shares shall be entitled to any benefits under this Trust
Agreement or be valid or obligatory for any purpose unless a Global Certificate
evidencing those Up-MACRO Tradeable Shares has been executed by the Trustee
by
the manual or facsimile signature of a duly authorized signatory of the Trustee
and countersigned by the manual or facsimile signature of a duly authorized
officer of the Depositor. The Trustee shall maintain books on which the
registered ownership of each Global Certificate and transfers, if any, of such
registered ownership shall be recorded. Global Certificates evidencing the
Up-MACRO Tradeable Shares bearing the manual or facsimile signature of a duly
authorized signatory of the Trustee and the manual or facsimile signature of
a
duly authorized officer of the Depositor, if applicable, who was, at the time
such Global Certificates were executed, a proper signatory of the Trustee or
the
Depositor, as applicable, shall bind the Trustee, notwithstanding that such
signatory has ceased to hold such office prior to the delivery of such Global
Certificates.
The
Global Certificates may be endorsed with or have incorporated in the text
thereof such legends or recitals or modifications not inconsistent with the
provisions of this Trust Agreement as may be required by the Trustee or required
to comply with any applicable law or regulations promulgated thereunder or
with
the rules and regulations of any securities exchange upon which the Up-MACRO
Tradeable Shares may be listed or to conform with any usage with respect
thereto, or to indicate any special limitations or restrictions to which the
Up-MACRO Tradeable Shares are subject.
The
Founders' Shares and the beneficial ownership thereof by the Depositor and
Claymore Securities, Inc. shall be recorded on the books and records maintained
by the Trustee on behalf of the Up-MACRO Tradeable Trust and no physical
certificates shall be issued in respect of such Founders' Shares. Concurrently
with the first issuance of Up-MACRO Tradeable Shares, the Founders' Shares
shall
be cancelled and shall not thereafter be reissued.
(b) Book-Entry
Settlement.
The
Depositor and the Trustee shall apply to the Depository for acceptance of the
Global Certificates in its book-entry settlement system. The Global Certificates
shall be deposited with the Trustee, as the custodian for the Depository, shall
be registered in the name of Cede & Co., as nominee for the Depository, and
shall bear the following legend:
UNLESS
THIS CERTIFICATE IS PRESENTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF THE DEPOSITORY
TRUST COMPANY, A NEW YORK CORPORATION (THE "DEPOSITORY"),
TO THE
AGENT AUTHORIZED BY THE DEPOSITOR FOR REGISTRATION OF TRANSFER, EXCHANGE OR
PAYMENT, AND ANY CERTIFICATE ISSUED IS REGISTERED IN THE NAME OF CEDE & CO.
OR IN SUCH OTHER NAME AS IS REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF THE
DEPOSITORY (AND ANY PAYMENT IS MADE TO CEDE & CO. OR TO SUCH OTHER ENTITY AS
IS REQUESTED BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF THE DEPOSITORY), ANY TRANSFER,
PLEDGE, OR OTHER USE HEREOF FOR VALUE OR OTHERWISE BY OR TO ANY PERSON IS
WRONGFUL INASMUCH AS THE REGISTERED OWNER HEREOF, CEDE & CO., HAS AN
INTEREST HEREIN.
12
So
long
as the Up-MACRO Tradeable Shares are eligible for book-entry settlement with
the
Depository, (i) no Beneficial Owner of Up-MACRO Tradeable Shares will be
entitled to receive a physical certificate evidencing those shares, (ii) the
interest of a Beneficial Owner in the Up-MACRO Tradeable Shares will be shown
only on, and transfer of that interest will be effected only through, records
maintained by the Depository or a DTC Participant or Indirect Participant
through which the Beneficial Owner holds that interest and (iii) the rights
of a
Beneficial Owner of Up-MACRO Tradeable Shares will be exercised only to the
extent allowed by, and in compliance with, the arrangements in effect between
such Beneficial Owner and the Depository or the DTC Participant or Indirect
Participant through which that Beneficial Owner holds an interest in the
Up-MACRO Tradeable Shares.
As
provided in the Depository Agreement, upon the settlement date for any transfer
or any creation, exchange or redemption of the Up-MACRO Tradeable Shares, the
Depository will credit or debit, on its book-entry registration and transfer
system, the amount of Up-MACRO Tradeable Shares so transferred or so created,
exchanged or redeemed to the accounts of the appropriate DTC Participants.
The
accounts to be credited and charged shall be designated by the Trustee, as
instructed by the Administrative Agent and the applicable Holder of Up-MACRO
Tradeable Shares. The Beneficial Owners of the Up-MACRO Tradeable Shares will
be
shown on, and the transfer of beneficial ownership by Beneficial Owners will
be
effected only through, in the case of DTC Participants, records maintained
by
the Depository and, in the case of Indirect Participants and Beneficial Owners
holding through a DTC Participant or an Indirect Participant, through those
records or the records of the relevant DTC Participants. Beneficial Owners
are
expected to receive from or through the broker or bank that maintains the
account through which the Beneficial Owner has purchased Up-MACRO Tradeable
Shares a written confirmation relating to their purchase of Up-MACRO Tradeable
Shares.
Upon
the
settlement date for any creation, transfer, exchange or redemption of Up-MACRO
Tradeable Shares, the Trustee shall make a notation on Schedule
A
attached
to the Global Certificate indicating the resulting Net Par Amount Increase
or
Net Par Amount Decrease in the Aggregate Par Amount of Outstanding Up-MACRO
Tradeable Shares represented by such Global Certificate. Upon the settlement
date for a transfer of a Global Certificate to a new Registered Owner as
described in clause
(e)(ii)
of this
Section
2.5,
the
Trustee shall cancel such Global Certificate and issue a new Global Certificate
in the name of such transferee Registered Owner.
The
Depository may discontinue providing its services with respect to the Up-MACRO
Tradeable Shares by giving notice to the Trustee, the Administrative Agent
and
the Depositor pursuant to and in conformity with the provisions of the
Depository Agreement and discharging its responsibilities with respect thereto
under applicable law. In such event, the Trustee, the Administrative Agent
and
the Depositor shall seek to find a replacement for the Depository to perform
the
functions thereof on terms acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the
Depositor. If no such replacement can be found or is willing to assume the
duties of the Depository, then a Termination Trigger will occur pursuant to
Section
11.1
of this
Trust Agreement.
(c) Notices
to Beneficial Owners.
As
described above, the Trustee will recognize the Depository or its nominee as
the
owner of all Up-MACRO Tradeable Shares for all purposes except as expressly
set
forth in this Trust Agreement. Conveyance of all notices, statements and other
communications required to be delivered to Beneficial Owners will be effected
as
follows: The Administrative Agent shall inquire of each such DTC Participant
as
to the number of Beneficial Owners holding Up-MACRO Tradeable Shares, directly
or indirectly, through such DTC Participant. The Administrative Agent shall
provide each such DTC Participant with sufficient copies of such notice,
statement or other communication, in such form, number and at such place as
such
DTC Participant may reasonably request, in order that such notice, statement
or
communication may be transmitted by such DTC Participant, directly or
indirectly, to such Beneficial Owners. In addition, the Up-MACRO Tradeable
Trust
shall reimburse each such DTC Participant for the expenses attendant to such
transmittal, subject to applicable statutory and regulatory requirements. The
Administrative Agent or Depositor will instruct the Trust to pay said
expenses.
13
(d) Distributions
on Book-Entry Certificates.
All
distributions on the Up-MACRO Tradeable Shares shall be made to the Depository
or its nominee, Cede & Co., as the registered owner of all Up-MACRO
Tradeable Shares. The Trustee and the Depositor expect that the Depository
or
its nominee, upon receipt of any distributions made in respect of the Up-MACRO
Tradeable Shares, shall credit immediately the DTC Participants' accounts with
payments in amounts proportionate to their respective beneficial interests
in
the Up-MACRO Tradeable Shares as shown on the records of the Depository or
its
nominee. The Trustee and the Depositor also expect that payments by DTC
Participants to Indirect Participants and Beneficial Owners held through such
DTC Participants and Indirect Participants will be governed by standing
instructions and customary practices, as is now the case with securities held
for the accounts of customers in bearer form or registered in a "street name,"
and shall be the responsibility of such DTC Participants and Indirect
Participants. None of the Trustee, the Depositor or the Administrative Agent
shall have any responsibility or liability for any aspects of the records
relating to or notices to Beneficial Owners, or payments made on account of
beneficial ownership interests in the Up-MACRO Tradeable Shares, or for
maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial
ownership interests or for any other aspect of the relationship between the
Depository and the DTC Participants or the relationship between such DTC
Participants and the Indirect Participants and Beneficial Owners owning through
such DTC Participants or Indirect Participants or between or among the
Depository, any Beneficial Owner and any Person by or through which such
Beneficial Owner is considered to own Up-MACRO Tradeable Shares.
(e) Registration
of Transfer; Restrictions on Transfer.
(i) The
Trustee shall cause to be kept at its Corporate Trust Office a register (the
"Share
Register")
in
which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, a transfer
agent and registrar (the "Transfer
Agent and Registrar")
shall
provide for the registration of the Up-MACRO Tradeable Shares and of transfers
and exchanges of such shares as herein provided. The Transfer Agent and
Registrar shall initially be the Trustee.
The
Depositor may revoke such appointment and remove any Transfer Agent and
Registrar if the Depositor determines in its sole discretion that such Transfer
Agent and Registrar failed to perform the responsibilities of the Transfer
Agent
and Registrar set forth in this Trust Agreement in any material respect. Any
Transfer Agent and Registrar shall be permitted to resign as Transfer Agent
and
Registrar upon thirty (30) days' notice to the Depositor and the Trustee;
provided,
however,
that
such resignation shall not be effective and such Transfer Agent and Registrar
shall continue to perform its duties as Transfer Agent and Registrar until
the
Trustee has appointed a successor Transfer Agent and Registrar reasonably
acceptable to the Depositor.
14
(ii) Transfers
of the Global Certificates shall be limited to transfers of such Global
Certificates in whole, but not in part, to nominees of the Depository or to
a
successor of the Depository or such successor's nominee. When a Global
Certificate is presented for registration of transfer, the Depositor shall
execute, the Trustee shall authenticate and the Transfer Agent and Registrar
shall register one or more new Global Certificates in the name of the designated
transferee or transferees. Each Global Certificate presented for registration
of
transfer shall be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in a form
satisfactory to the Trustee or the Transfer Agent and Registrar duly executed
by
the Registered Owner or the attorney-in-fact thereof duly authorized in writing.
No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange
of
Up-MACRO Tradeable Shares, but the Transfer Agent and Registrar may require
payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that
may be imposed in connection with any such transfer or exchange.
(f) Mutilated,
Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Global Certificate.
If (a)
any mutilated Global Certificate is surrendered to the Transfer Agent and
Registrar, or the Transfer Agent and Registrar receives evidence to its
satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Global Certificate and
(b)
there is delivered to the Transfer Agent and Registrar and the Trustee such
security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless,
then in the absence of notice to the Trustee that such Global Certificate has
been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Depositor shall execute, the Trustee
shall authenticate and the Transfer Agent and Registrar shall deliver, in
exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Global
Certificate, a new Global Certificate of like tenor and aggregate beneficial
interest. In connection with the issuance of any new Global Certificate under
this Section
2.5(f),
the
Trustee or the Transfer Agent and Registrar may require the payment by the
Registered Owner of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental
charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including
the fees and expenses of the Trustee and the Transfer Agent and Registrar)
connected therewith. Any duplicate Global Certificate issued pursuant to this
Section
2.5(f)
shall
constitute complete and indefeasible evidence of ownership in the Up-MACRO
Tradeable Trust, as if originally issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or
destroyed Global Certificate shall be found at any time.
(g) Share
Split. Pursuant
to resolutions adopted by the Board of Managers of the Depositor on September
28, 2007, the Depositor has declared a three-for-one split of the Up-MACRO
Tradeable Shares. The record date and pay date for the split shall be designated
and notified by the Depositor to the AMEX and the general public. The total
amount of Outstanding Up-MACRO Holding Shares shall be tripled and the Depositor
shall instruct DTC to credit on the applicable pay date three shares for each
one share that is credited to any DTC account as of the applicable record date.
A three-for-one split has also been declared for the Up-MACRO Holding Shares,
the Down-MACRO Holding Shares and the Down-MACRO Tradeable Shares.

of

fees
and other costs or expenses incurred in connection with the defense of any

or
willful misconduct of the Trustee; provided,
further,
that
the Marketing Agent shall not indemnify the Depositor if such acts or omissions,
or alleged acts or omissions, constitute or are caused by fraud, gross
negligence, or willful misconduct of the Depositor; provided,

shall
survive the termination of the Up-MACRO Tradeable Trust and the resignation
or
removal of the Marketing Agent or the resignation or removal of any of the
entities which constitute Marketing Agent Indemnified Parties at the time of
the
execution of this Trust Agreement and the appointment of successors
thereto.
SECTION

In the
ordinary course of business, the Marketing Agent may at any time delegate any
duties hereunder to any Person who agrees to conduct such duties in accordance
with this Trust Agreement. Any such delegations shall not relieve the Marketing
Agent of its liability and responsibility with respect to such duties and shall

or
acts, in which event such rights, powers, duties and obligations (including
the
holding of title to the Trust Assets or any portion thereof in any such
jurisdiction) shall be exercised or performed singly by such co-trustee or

(ii) no
co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall be personally liable by reason

rights, remedies and trusts under or in respect to this Trust Agreement shall
vest in and be exercised by the Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without
the appointment of a new or successor trustee.

of
which such judgment has been obtained.

At

time. The Agreement provides for the issuance of additional Shares from time

in
certain limited circumstances, without the consent of the
