Note 3. SALES COMMISSION

The managing operator pays an upfront sales commission based on Series A units sold by selling agents who have executed selling agreements with the Trust. The Trust pays commissions based on Series A, Series B, and Series D units.

For Series A, there is an upfront sales commission paid by the managing operator of 2% of the subscription amount of each subscription for units. For up to twelve months after the sale of units, the managing operator will receive from the Trust a monthly reimbursement of 1/12 of 2% (2% annually) of the current net asset value of the units the selling agent has sold and which are outstanding at the end of such month. In the event that the units are redeemed before the twelfth month, the managing operator will receive the redemption fee the Trust deducts from the redemption proceeds. In addition, commencing thirteen months after the sale of units and in return for providing ongoing services to the unitholder, the Trust will pay the selling agent (or its assignees) a monthly trail commission of 1/12 of 2% (2% annually) of the current net asset value of the units it has sold and which are outstanding at the end of such month in respect of which the selling agent provides ongoing services.

Series B and Series D units pay a monthly trail commission of 1/12 of 2% (2% annually) and 1/12 of 0.75% (0.75% annually), respectively, of the current net asset value of the units the selling agent has sold and which are outstanding at the end of such month in respect of which the selling agent provides ongoing services. Such ongoing compensation shall commence the first full month after the sale of the units.

Any monthly trail commission which is not paid to a selling agent pursuant to an executed selling or servicing agreement with the Trust will be rebated to unitholders in the form of a capital addition and is reported as such in the financial statements.
