In connection with each Purchase Order or Redemption Order by JPM under the Agreement, JPM shall pay to the Fund the Transaction Fee prescribed in the Fund’s Prospectus applicable to such creation or redemption. The initial Transaction Fee shall be Five Hundred dollars ($500) per Basket. The Transaction Fee may be adjusted from time to time as set forth in the Registration Statement.
The Agreement may be terminated at any time by any party upon sixty (60) days’ prior written notice to the other parties and may be terminated earlier by the Distributor at any time in the event of a breach by JPM of any provision of the Agreement or the procedures described or incorporated therein.
