CurrencyShares ® Canadian Dollar Trust
(Unaudited)
1. Organization and Description of the Trust
The CurrencyShares ® Canadian Dollar Trust (the Trust) was formed under the laws of the State of New York on June 8, 2006 when Guggenheim Specialized Products, LLC d/b/a Guggenheim Investments (the Sponsor) deposited 100 Canadian Dollars in the Trusts primary deposit account held by JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., London Branch (the Depository). The Sponsor is a Delaware limited liability company whose sole member is Security Investors, LLC (also d/b/a Guggenheim Investments). The Sponsor is responsible for, among other things, overseeing the performance of The Bank of New York Mellon (the Trustee) and the Trusts principal service providers, including the preparation of financial statements. The Trustee is responsible for the day-to-day administration of the Trust.
The investment objective of the Trust is for the Trusts shares (the Shares) to reflect the price in U.S. Dollars (USD) of the Canadian Dollar plus accrued interest, if any, less the Trusts expenses and liabilities. The Shares are intended to provide investors with a simple, cost-effective means of gaining investment benefits similar to those of holding Canadian Dollars. The Trusts assets primarily consist of Canadian Dollars on demand deposit in two deposit accounts maintained by the Depository: a primary deposit account which may earn interest and a secondary deposit account which does not earn interest. The secondary deposit account is used to account for any interest that may be received and paid out on creations and redemptions of blocks of 50,000 Shares (Baskets). The secondary account is also used to account for interest earned, if any, on the primary deposit account, pay Trust expenses and distribute any excess interest to holders of Shares (Shareholders) on a monthly basis.
The accompanying unaudited financial statements were prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions for Form 10-Q. In the opinion of management, all material adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring adjustments, considered necessary for a fair statement of the interim period financial statements have been made. Interim period results are not necessarily indicative of results for a full-year period. These financial statements and the notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the Trusts financial statements included in the Form 10-K as filed on January 12, 2017.
2. Significant Accounting Policies
A. Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of the assets, liabilities and disclosures of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements, the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the period and the evaluation of subsequent events through the issuance date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
B. Foreign Currency Translation
The Trustee calculates the Trusts net asset value (NAV) each business day, as described in Note 4. For NAV calculation purposes, Canadian Dollar deposits (cash) are translated at the Closing Spot Rate, which is the Canadian Dollar/USD exchange rate as determined and published by The WM Company at 4:00 PM (London time / London fixing) on each day that NYSE Arca, Inc. (NYSE Arca) is open for regular trading.
The functional currency of the Trust is the Canadian Dollar in accordance with generally accepted accounting standards. For financial statement reporting purposes, the U.S. Dollar is the reporting currency. As a result, the financial records of the Trust are translated from Canadian Dollars to USD. The Closing Spot Rate on the last day of the period is used for translation in the statements of financial condition. The average Closing Spot Rate for the period is used for translation in the statements of comprehensive income and the statements of cash flows. Any currency translation adjustment is included in comprehensive income.
C. Federal Income Taxes
The Trust is treated as a grantor trust for federal income tax purposes and, therefore, no provision for federal income taxes is required. Interest, gains and losses are passed through to the Shareholders.
6
Shareholders generally will be treated, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, as if they directly owned a pro-rata share of the assets held in the Trust. Shareholders also will be treated as if they directly received their respective pro-rata portion of the Trusts income, if any, and as if they directly incurred their respective pro-rata portion of the Trusts expenses. The acquisition of Shares by a U.S. Shareholder as part of a creation of a Basket will not be a taxable event to the Shareholder.
The Sponsors fee accrues daily and is payable monthly. For U.S. federal income tax purposes, an accrual-basis U.S. Shareholder generally will be required to take into account as an expense its allocable portion of the USD-equivalent of the amount of the Sponsors fee that is accrued on each day, with such USD-equivalent being determined by the currency exchange rate that is in effect on the respective day. To the extent that the currency exchange rate on the date of payment of the accrued amount of the Sponsors fee differs from the currency exchange rate in effect on the day of accrual, the U.S. Shareholder will recognize a currency gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
The Trust does not expect to generate taxable income except for interest income (if any) and gain (if any) upon the sale of Canadian Dollars. A non-U.S. Shareholder generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax with respect to gain recognized upon the sale or other disposition of Shares, or upon the sale of Canadian Dollars by the Trust, unless: (1) the non-U.S. Shareholder is an individual and is present in the United States for 183 days or more during the taxable year of the sale or other disposition, and the gain is treated as being from United States sources; or (2) the gain is effectively connected with the conduct by the non-U.S. Shareholder of a trade or business in the United States.
A non-U.S. Shareholders portion of any interest income earned by the Trust generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax unless the Shares owned by such non-U.S. Shareholder are effectively connected with the conduct by the non-U.S. Shareholder of a trade or business in the United States.
D. Revenue Recognition
Interest on the primary deposit account, if any, accrues daily as earned and is received or paid on a monthly basis. Any interest below zero for the period is reflected as interest expense.
E. Dividends
To the extent that the interest earned by the Trust, if any, exceeds the sum of the Sponsors fee for the prior month plus other Trust expenses, if any, the Trust will distribute, as a dividend (herein referred to as dividends or distributions), the excess interest earned in Canadian Dollars effective on the first business day of the subsequent month. The Trustee will direct that the excess Canadian Dollars be converted into USD at the prevailing market rate and the Trustee will distribute the USD as promptly as practicable to Shareholders on a pro-rata basis (in accordance with the number of Shares that they own).
3. Canadian Dollar Deposits
Canadian Dollar principal deposits are held in a Canadian Dollar-denominated, interest-bearing demand account. For the nine months ended July 31, 2017, there were Canadian Dollar principal deposits of 39,515,834 and Canadian Dollar principal redemptions of 64,200,326 and Canadian Dollar withdrawals (to pay expenses) of 672,668, resulting in an ending Canadian Dollar principal balance of 236,808,225. This equates to $189,363,260 USD (which includes USD redemptions payable). For the year ended October 31, 2016, there were Canadian Dollar principal deposits of 34,684,482 and Canadian Dollar principal redemptions of 54,486,305 and Canadian Dollar withdrawals (to pay expenses) of 1,085,107, resulting in an ending Canadian Dollar principal balance of 262,165,385. This equates to 195,609,315 USD.
Net interest, if any, associated with creation and redemption activity is held in a Canadian Dollar-denominated non-interest bearing account, and any balance is distributed in full as part of the monthly income distributions, if any.
4. Redeemable Capital Shares
Shares are classified as redeemable for financial statement purposes, since they are subject to redemption. Shares are issued and redeemed continuously in Baskets in exchange for Canadian Dollars. Individual investors cannot purchase or redeem Shares in direct transactions with the Trust. Only Authorized Participants (as defined below) may place orders to create and redeem Baskets. An Authorized Participant is a Depository Trust Company (DTC) participant that is a registered broker-dealer or other institution eligible to settle securities transactions through the book-entry facilities of the DTC and which has entered into a contractual arrangement with the Trust and the Sponsor governing, among other matters, the creation and redemption process. Authorized Participants may redeem their Shares at any time in Baskets.
7
Due to expected continuing creations and redemptions of Baskets and the three-day period for settlement of each creation or redemption, the Trust reflects Shares created as a receivable on the trade date. Shares redeemed are reflected as a liability on the trade date. Outstanding Shares are reflected at a redemption value, which is the NAV per Share at the period end date. Adjustments to redeemable capital Shares at redemption value are recorded against retained earnings or, in the absence of retained earnings, by charges against the cumulative translation adjustment.
Activity in redeemable capital Shares is as follows:

The Trustee calculates the Trusts NAV each business day. To calculate the NAV, the Trustee subtracts the Sponsors accrued fee through the previous day from the Canadian Dollars held by the Trust (including all unpaid interest, if any, accrued through the preceding day) and calculates the value of the Canadian Dollars in USD based upon the Closing Spot Rate. If, on a particular evaluation day, the Closing Spot Rate has not been determined and announced by 6:00 PM (London time), then the most recent Closing Spot Rate will be used to determine the NAV of the Trust unless the Trustee, in consultation with the Sponsor, determines that such price is inappropriate to use as the basis for the valuation. If the Trustee and the Sponsor determine that the most recent Closing Spot Rate is not an appropriate basis for valuation of the Trusts Canadian Dollars, they will determine an alternative basis for the valuation. The Trustee also determines the NAV per Share, which equals the NAV of the Trust, divided by the number of outstanding Shares. Shares deliverable under a purchase order are considered outstanding for purposes of determining NAV per Share; Shares deliverable under a redemption order are not considered outstanding for this purpose.
5. Sponsors Fee
The Sponsors fee accrues daily at an annual nominal rate of 0.40% of the Canadian Dollars in the Trust (including all unpaid interest but excluding unpaid fees, each as accrued through the immediately preceding day) and is paid monthly.
The Sponsor assumes and pays the following administrative and marketing expenses incurred by the Trust: the Trustees monthly fee, NYSE Arca listing fees, SEC registration fees, typical maintenance and transaction fees of the Depository, printing and mailing costs, audit fees and expenses, up to $100,000 per year in legal fees and expenses, and applicable license fees.
In certain exceptional cases the Trust will pay for some expenses in addition to the Sponsors fee. These exceptions include expenses not assumed by the Sponsor (i.e., expenses other than those identified in the preceding paragraph), expenses resulting from a negative interest rate, taxes and governmental charges, expenses and costs of any extraordinary services performed by the Trustee or the Sponsor on behalf of the Trust or action taken by the Trustee or the Sponsor to protect the Trust or the interests of Shareholders, indemnification of the Sponsor under the Depositary Trust Agreement, audit fees and legal expenses in excess of $100,000 per year.
6. Related Parties
The Sponsor is a related party of the Trust. The Sponsor oversees the performance of the Trustee and the Trusts principal service providers, including the preparation of financial statements, but does not exercise day-to-day oversight over the Trustee or the Trusts service providers.
7. Concentration Risk
All of the Trusts assets are Canadian Dollars, which creates a concentration risk associated with fluctuations in the price of the Canadian Dollar. Accordingly, a decline in the Canadian Dollar to USD exchange rate will have an adverse effect on the value of the Shares. Factors that may have the effect of causing a decline in the price of the Canadian Dollar include national debt levels and trade deficits, domestic and foreign inflation rates, domestic and foreign interest rates, investment and trading
8
activities of institutions and global or regional political, economic or financial events and situations. Substantial sales of Canadian Dollars by the official sector (central banks, other governmental agencies and related institutions that buy, sell and hold Canadian Dollars as part of their reserve assets) could adversely affect an investment in the Shares.
All of the Trusts Canadian Dollars are held by the Depository. Accordingly, a risk associated with the concentration of the Trusts assets in accounts held by a single financial institution exists and increases the potential for loss by the Trust and the Trusts beneficiaries in the event that the Depository becomes insolvent.
8. Commitments and Contingencies
Under the Trusts organizational documents, the Sponsor is indemnified against any liability or expense it incurs without negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on its part. The Trusts maximum exposure under this arrangement is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Trust that have not yet occurred.

Neither Guggenheim Specialized Products, LLC d/b/a Guggenheim Investments (the Sponsor) nor any other person assumes responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of forward-looking statements contained in this report.

Trust Overview
The CurrencyShares ® Canadian Dollar Trust (the Trust) is a grantor trust that was formed on June 8, 2006. The Trust issues shares (the Shares) in blocks of 50,000 (a Basket) in exchange for deposits of Canadian Dollars and distributes Canadian Dollars in connection with the redemption of Baskets. The Shares commenced trading on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol FXC on June 26, 2006. The primary listing of the Shares was transferred to NYSE Arca on October 30, 2007.
The investment objective of the Trust is for the Shares to reflect the price of the Canadian Dollar plus accrued interest, if any, less the expenses of the Trusts operations. The Shares are intended to offer investors an opportunity to participate in the market for the Canadian Dollar through an investment in securities. The Shares are intended to provide institutional and retail investors with a simple, cost-effective means of gaining investment benefits similar to those of holding the Canadian Dollar. The Shares are bought and sold on NYSE Arca like any other exchange-listed security. The Shares are backed by the assets of the Trust, which does not hold or use derivative products. The Trust is a passive investment vehicle and does not have any officers, directors or employees. The Trust does not engage in any activities designed to obtain profit from, or ameliorate losses caused by, changes in the price of the Canadian Dollar. Investing in the Shares does not insulate the investor from certain risks, including price volatility.
Definition of Net Asset Value
The Trustee calculates, and the Sponsor publishes, the Trusts Net Asset Value (NAV) each business day. To calculate the NAV, the Trustee adds to the amount of Canadian Dollars in the Trust at the end of the preceding day accrued but unpaid interest, if any, Canadian Dollars receivable under pending purchase orders and the value of other Trust assets, and subtracts the accrued but unpaid Sponsors fee, Canadian Dollars payable under pending redemption orders and other Trust expenses and liabilities, if any. The NAV is expressed in USD based on the Canadian Dollar/USD exchange rate as determined by The WM Company at 4:00 PM (London time / London fixing) (the Closing Spot Rate) on each day that NYSE Arca is open for regular trading. If, on a particular evaluation day, the Closing Spot Rate has not been determined and announced by 6:00 PM (London time), then the most recent Closing Spot Rate is used to determine the NAV of the Trust unless the Trustee, in consultation with the Sponsor, determines that such price is inappropriate to use as the basis for the valuation.
The Trustee also determines the NAV per Share, which equals the NAV of the Trust, divided by the number of outstanding Shares. The NAV of the Trust and NAV per Share are published by the Sponsor on each day that NYSE Arca is open for regular trading and are posted on the Trusts website, www.currencyshares.com.

Movements in the Price of the Canadian Dollar
The investment objective of the Trust is for the Shares to reflect the price in USD of the Canadian Dollar plus accrued interest, if any, less the expenses of the Trusts operations. The Shares are intended to provide institutional and retail investors with a simple, cost-effective means of gaining investment benefits similar to those of holding Canadian Dollars. Each outstanding Share represents a proportional interest in the Canadian Dollars held by the Trust. The following chart provides recent trends on the price of the Canadian Dollar. The chart illustrates movements in the price of the Canadian Dollar in USD and is based on the Closing Spot Rate:

Liquidity
The Sponsor is not aware of any trends, demands, conditions or events that are reasonably likely to result in material changes to the Trusts liquidity needs. The Trusts Depository, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., London Branch, maintains two deposit accounts for the Trust, a primary deposit account that may earn interest and a secondary deposit account that does not earn interest. Interest on the primary deposit account, if any, accrues daily and is paid monthly. The interest rate in effect as of July 31, 2017 was an annual nominal rate of 0.25%. The following chart provides the daily rate paid by the Depository since July 31, 2012:
In exchange for a fee, the Sponsor bears most of the expenses incurred by the Trust. As a result, the only ordinary expense of the Trust during the period covered by this report was the Sponsors fee. Each month the Depository deposits into the secondary deposit account accrued but unpaid interest, if any, and the Trustee withdraws Canadian Dollars from the secondary deposit account to pay the accrued Sponsors fee for the previous month plus other Trust expenses, if any. When the interest deposited, if any, exceeds the sum of the Sponsors fee for the prior month plus other Trust expenses, if any, the Trustee converts the excess into USD at the prevailing market rate and distributes the USD as promptly as practicable to Shareholders on a pro-rata basis (in accordance with the number of Shares that they own). The Trust did not make any distributions during the quarter ended July 31, 2017.
Critical Accounting Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the Sponsors management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of the assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the period covered by this report.
In addition to the description below, please refer to Note 2 to the financial statements for further discussion of our accounting policies.
The functional currency of the Trust is the Canadian Dollar in accordance with ASC 830, Foreign Currency Translation.

Results of Operations
As of October 31, 2016, the number of Canadian Dollars owned by the Trust was 262,165,385, resulting in a redeemable capital share value of $195,544,021. During the nine months ended July 31, 2017, 400,000 Shares were created in exchange for 39,515,834 Canadian Dollars and 650,000 Shares were redeemed in exchange for 64,200,326 Canadian Dollars. In addition, 672,668 Canadian Dollars were withdrawn to pay the portion of the Sponsors fee that exceeded interest earned. As of July 31, 2017, the number of Canadian Dollars owned by the Trust was 236,808,225, resulting in a redeemable capital Share value of $189,326,177.
A decrease in the Trusts redeemable capital Share value from $195,544,021 at October 31, 2016 to $189,326,177 at July 31, 2017 was primarily the result of a decrease in the number of Shares outstanding from 2,650,000 at October 31, 2016 to 2,400,000 at July 31, 2017. This decrease was partially offset with an increase in the Closing Spot Rate from 0.7461 at October 31, 2016 to 0.7996 at July 31, 2017.
Interest income increased from $20,665 for the three months ended July 31, 2016 to $45,511 for the three months ended July 31, 2017, and increased from $22,442 for the nine months ended July 31, 2016 to $92,307 for the nine months ended July 31, 2017, attributable primarily to an increase in the annual nominal interest rate paid by the Depository, as set forth in the chart above. The increase in interest income was partially offset by a decrease in the weighted-average Canadian Dollars in the Trust.
The Sponsors fee accrues daily at an annual nominal rate of 0.40% of the Canadian Dollars in the Trust. Due primarily to a decrease in the weighted-average Canadian Dollars in the Trust, the Sponsors fee decreased from $215,463 for the three months ended July 31, 2016 to $187,853 for the three months ended July 31, 2017, and decreased from $632,443 for the nine months ended July 31, 2016 to $567,541 for the nine months ended July 31, 2017. The only expense of the Trust during the three months and nine months ended July 31, 2017 was the Sponsors fee.
The Trusts net loss for the three months ended July 31, 2017 was $142,342 due to the Sponsors fee of $187,853 exceeding interest income of $45,511. The Trusts net loss for the nine months ended July 31, 2017 was $475,234 due to the Sponsors fee of $567,541 exceeding interest income of $92,307.
Cash dividends were not paid by the Trust for the three months ended July 31, 2016, the three months ended July 31, 2017, the nine months ended July 31, 2016 or the nine months ended July 31, 2017 as the Trusts interest income did not exceed the Trusts expenses during those periods.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Except as described above with respect to fluctuations in the Canadian Dollar/USD exchange rate and changes in the nominal annual interest rate paid by the Depository on Canadian Dollars held by the Trust, the Trust is not subject to market risk. The Trust does not hold securities and does not invest in derivative products.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
The Trust maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) designed to ensure that material information relating to the Trust is recorded, processed and disclosed on a timely basis. The Trusts disclosure controls and procedures are designed by or under the supervision of the Sponsors chief executive officer and chief financial officer, who exercise oversight over the Trust as the Trust has no officers. The chief executive officer and chief financial officer of the Sponsor have evaluated the effectiveness of the Trusts disclosure controls and procedures as of July 31, 2017. Based on that evaluation, the chief executive officer and chief financial officer of the Sponsor have concluded that the disclosure controls and procedures of the Trust were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report.
There were no changes in the Trusts internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Trusts last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Trusts internal control over financial reporting.

ATTACHMENT A FXA
CREATION AND REDEMPTION OF AUSTRALIAN DOLLAR SHARES AND
RELATED AUSTRALIAN DOLLAR TRANSACTIONS
Scope of Procedures and Overview
These procedures (the Procedures ) describe the processes by which one or more Baskets of Australian Dollar Trust shares (the Shares ) issuable by The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee (the Trustee ) of the CurrencyShares ® Australian Dollar Trust (the Trust ), may be purchased or, once Shares have been issued, redeemed by an Authorized Participant. Shares may be created or redeemed only in blocks of 50,000 Shares (each such block, a Basket ). Because the issuance and redemption of Baskets also involve the transfer of Australian Dollars between the Authorized Participant and the Trust, certain processes relating to the underlying transfers of Australian Dollars also are described.
Under these Procedures, Baskets may be issued only in consideration for Australian Dollars transferred to and held in the Trusts accounts maintained in London, England by the London Branch of JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as depository (the Depository ). Capitalized terms used in these Procedures without further definition have the meanings assigned to them in the Depositary Trust Agreement, dated as of June 8, 2006, between Rydex Specialized Products LLC, succeeded by Guggenheim Specialized Products, LLC (the Sponsor ), the Trustee, the registered owners and beneficial owners from time to time of Shares issued thereunder and all depositors (the Trust Agreement ), or the Participant Agreement entered into by each Authorized Participant with the Sponsor and the Trustee.
For purposes of these Procedures, a NY Business Day is defined as any day other than (i) a Saturday or Sunday or (ii) a day on which NYSE Arca is not open for regular trading at noon New York City time; a Local Business Day is defined as any day other than (i) a Saturday or Sunday or (ii) a day which has been designated a bank holiday in Australia.
Baskets are issued pursuant to the Prospectus, which will be delivered by the Sponsor to each Authorized Participant prior to its execution of the Participant Agreement, and are issued and redeemed in accordance with the Trust Agreement and the Participant Agreement. Baskets may be issued and redeemed on any Business Day by the Trustee in exchange for Australian Dollars, which the Trustee receives from Authorized Participants or transfers to Authorized Participants, in each case on behalf of the Trust. Authorized Participants will be required to pay a nonrefundable per order transaction fee of $500 to the Trustee. Also, in connection with each Purchase Order and Redemption Order (each as defined below) for two or more Baskets, the Authorized Participant shall pay an additional transaction fee, as follows:
Baskets Created or Redeemed Per Order |
Additional Transaction Fee | |||
2 |
$ | 500 | ||
3 |
$ | 1,000 | ||
4 |
$ | 1,500 | ||
5 or more |
$ | 2,000 |
The additional transaction fee described above shall be remitted to the Authorized Participant to the Trustee in accordance with these Procedures. The Trustee shall then remit payment of the additional transaction fee to the Sponsor. The fees described above shall collectively be referred to herein as Transaction Fees .
Authorized Participants and the Trust Transfer Australian Dollars and Baskets
Upon acceptance of the Participant Agreement by the Sponsor and the Trustee, the Trustee will assign a personal identification number (a PIN ) to each person authorized to act for the Authorized Participant (an Authorized Person ). This will allow the Authorized Participant through its Authorized Person(s) to place Purchase Order(s) or Redemption Order(s) (each as defined herein and, together, Orders ) for Baskets.
9
Important Notes:
Any Order is subject to rejection by the Trustee for the reasons set forth in the Trust Agreement.
All Orders are subject to the provisions of the Participant Agreement relating to unclear or ambiguous instructions.
10
CREATION PROCESS
OVERVIEW
The following describes the process by which Baskets are created. In summary, an order to purchase one or more Baskets is placed by an Authorized Participant with the Trustee by 4:00 p.m. New York City ( NYC ) time on the NY Business Day that is the Order Date under the Trust Agreement ( CREATION T ), on the next NY Business Day following CREATION T that is also a Local Business Day ( CREATION T+1 ), the Trustee notifies the Authorized Participant and the Depository of the amount of Australian Dollars to be transferred to the Trust and the Authorized Participant transfers such amount to the Depository, and a Basket is created on the next NY Business Day following CREATION T+1, unless the Trustee has not received confirmation of the receipt of the Basket Australian Dollar Amount (as defined herein) on such day, in which case creation of the Basket shall be the next following day that is both a New York Business Day and a Local Business Day ( CREATION T+2 ). In order for the creation of a Basket to occur, the Authorized Participant must transfer to the Trust Australian Dollars and the Trustee will transfer to the Authorized Participants account at The Depository Trust Company ( DTC ) Baskets corresponding to the Australian Dollars the Participant has transferred to the Trust.
C1 | CREATION T (PURCHASE ORDER TRADE DATE) |
C1.1 By the 4:00 p.m. NYC time (the Order Cut-Off Time ), or by 12:00 p.m. NYC time on the monthly dividend declaration date (the Early Order Cut-Off Time ), the Authorized Participant submits to the Trustee the Authorized Participants order to create one or more Baskets (a Purchase Order ) in accordance with the following process.
C1.1.1 The Authorized Participant submitting an order to create shall submit such orders containing the information required by the Trustee in the following manner: (a) through the Trustees electronic order entry system, as such may be made available and constituted from time to time, the use of which shall be subject to the Order Entry System terms and conditions; or (b) by telephone to the Trustees Transfer Agent Representative according to the procedures set forth below.
C1.1.2 By the Order Cut-Off Time or the Early Order Cut-Off Time, as applicable, an Authorized Person of the Authorized Participant calls the Trustee at 718-315-7500, notifying the Trustee that the Authorized Participant wishes to place a Purchase Order for the Trustee to create an identified number of Baskets and requesting that the Trustee provide an order number. The Authorized Person provides a PIN as identification to the Trustee.
C1.1.3 Incoming telephone calls are queued and will be handled in the sequence received. The Trustee will process Purchase Orders if the phone call initiated by the Authorized Person is placed before the Order Cut-Off Time or the Early Order Cut-Off Time, as applicable, even though the remainder of the order process is not completed until after the Order Cut-Off Time or the Early Order Cut-Off Time. Accordingly, do not hang up and redial.
C1.1.4 Purchase Orders initiated after the Order Cut-Off Time or the Early Order Cut-Off Time, as applicable, will be rejected.
C1.1.5 During the phone call from the Authorized Person of the Authorized Participant to initiate a Purchase Order, the Trustee will give an order number for the Authorized Participants Purchase Order.
C1.1.6 Within 15 minutes after receiving the order number from the Trustee, the Authorized Participant will fax the Purchase Order to the Trustee using the Purchase Order Form included as part of the Participant Agreement.

Scope of Procedures and Overview
These procedures (the Procedures ) describe the processes by which one or more Baskets of British Pound Sterling Trust shares (the Shares ) issuable by The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee (the Trustee ) of the CurrencyShares ® British Pound Sterling Trust (the Trust ), may be purchased or, once Shares have been issued, redeemed by an Authorized Participant. Shares may be created or redeemed only in blocks of 50,000 Shares (each such block, a Basket ). Because the issuance and redemption of Baskets also involve the transfer of British Pounds between the Authorized Participant and the Trust, certain processes relating to the underlying transfers of British Pounds also are described.
Under these Procedures, Baskets may be issued only in consideration for British Pounds transferred to and held in the Trusts accounts maintained in London, England by the London Branch of JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as depository (the Depository ).

For purposes of these Procedures, a Business Day is defined as any day other than (i) a Saturday or Sunday or (ii) a day on which the New York Stock Exchange (the NYSE ) is not open for regular trading at noon New York City time; and a Local Business Day is defined as any day other than (i) a Saturday or Sunday or (ii) a day which has been designated a bank holiday in London.
Baskets are issued pursuant to the Prospectus, which will be delivered by the Sponsor to each Authorized Participant prior to its execution of the Participant Agreement, and are issued and redeemed in accordance with the Trust Agreement and the Participant Agreement. Baskets may be issued and redeemed on any Business Day by the Trustee in exchange for British Pounds, which the Trustee receives from Authorized Participants or transfers to Authorized Participants, in each case on behalf of the Trust. Authorized Participants will be required to pay a nonrefundable per order transaction fee of $500 to the Trustee. Also, in connection with each Purchase Order and Redemption Order (each as defined below) for two or more Baskets, the Authorized Participant shall pay an additional transaction fee, as follows:
Baskets Created or Redeemed Per Order |
Additional Transaction Fee | |||
2 |
$ | 500 | ||
3 |
$ | 1,000 | ||
4 |
$ | 1,500 | ||
5 or more |
$ | 2,000 |
The additional transaction fee described above shall be remitted to the Authorized Participant to the Trustee in accordance with these Procedures. The Trustee shall then remit payment of the additional transaction fee to the Sponsor. The fees described above shall collectively be referred to herein as Transaction Fees .
Authorized Participants and the Trust Transfer British Pounds and Baskets
Upon acceptance of the Participant Agreement by the Sponsor and the Trustee, the Trustee will assign a personal identification number (a PIN ) to each person authorized to act for the Authorized Participant (an Authorized Person ). This will allow the Authorized Participant through its Authorized Person(s) to place Purchase Order(s) or Redemption Order(s) (each as defined herein and, together, Orders ) for Baskets.

Scope of Procedures and Overview
These procedures (the Procedures ) describe the processes by which one or more Baskets of Japanese Yen Trust shares (the Shares ) issuable by The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee (the Trustee ) of the CurrencyShares ® Japanese Yen Trust (the Trust ), may be purchased or, once Shares have been issued, redeemed by an Authorized Participant. Shares may be created or redeemed only in blocks of 50,000 Shares (each such block, a Basket ). Because the issuance and redemption of Baskets also involve the transfer of Japanese Yen between the Authorized Participant and the Trust, certain processes relating to the underlying transfers of Japanese Yen also are described.
Under these Procedures, Baskets may be issued only in consideration for Japanese Yen transferred to and held in the Trusts accounts maintained in London, England by the London Branch of JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as depository (the Depository ).

For purposes of these Procedures, a NY Business Day is defined as any day other than (i) a Saturday or Sunday or (ii) a day on which the New York Stock Exchange (the NYSE ) is not open for regular trading at noon New York City time; a Local Business Day is defined as any day other than (i) a Saturday or Sunday or (ii) a day which has been designated a bank holiday in Japan.
Baskets are issued pursuant to the Prospectus, which will be delivered by the Sponsor to each Authorized Participant prior to its execution of the Participant Agreement, and are issued and redeemed in accordance with the Trust Agreement and the Participant Agreement. Baskets may be issued and redeemed on any Business Day by the Trustee in exchange for Japanese Yen, which the Trustee receives from Authorized Participants or transfers to Authorized Participants, in each case on behalf of the Trust. Authorized Participants will be required to pay a nonrefundable per order transaction fee of $500 to the Trustee. Also, in connection with each Purchase Order and Redemption Order (each as defined below) for two or more Baskets, the Authorized Participant shall pay an additional transaction fee, as follows:
Baskets Created or Redeemed Per Order |
Additional Transaction Fee | |||
2 |
$ | 500 | ||
3 |
$ | 1,000 | ||
4 |
$ | 1,500 | ||
5 or more |
$ | 2,000 |
The additional transaction fee described above shall be remitted to the Authorized Participant to the Trustee in accordance with these Procedures. The Trustee shall then remit payment of the additional transaction fee to the Sponsor. The fees described above shall collectively be referred to herein as Transaction Fees .
Authorized Participants and the Trust Transfer Japanese Yen and Baskets
Upon acceptance of the Participant Agreement by the Sponsor and the Trustee, the Trustee will assign a personal identification number (a PIN ) to each person authorized to act for the Authorized Participant (an Authorized Person ). This will allow the Authorized Participant through its Authorized Person(s) to place Purchase Order(s) or Redemption Order(s) (each as defined herein and, together, Orders ) for Baskets.

Scope of Procedures and Overview
These procedures (the Procedures ) describe the processes by which one or more Baskets of Singapore Dollar Trust shares (the Shares ) issuable by The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee (the Trustee ) of the CurrencyShares ® Singapore Dollar Trust (the Trust ), may be purchased or, once Shares have been issued, redeemed by an Authorized Participant. Shares may be created or redeemed only in blocks of 50,000 Shares (each such block, a Basket ). Because the issuance and redemption of Baskets also involve the transfer of Singapore Dollars between the Authorized Participant and the Trust, certain processes relating to the underlying transfers of Singapore Dollars also are described.
Under these Procedures, Baskets may be issued only in consideration for Singapore Dollar transferred to and held in the Trusts accounts maintained in London, England by the London Branch of JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as depository (the Depository ).

Baskets are issued pursuant to the Prospectus, which will be delivered by the Sponsor to each Authorized Participant prior to its execution of the Participant Agreement, and are issued and redeemed in accordance with the Trust Agreement and the Participant Agreement. Baskets may be issued and redeemed on any Business Day by the Trustee in exchange for Singapore Dollar, which the Trustee receives from Authorized Participants or transfers to Authorized Participants, in each case on behalf of the Trust. Authorized Participants will be required to pay a nonrefundable per order transaction fee of $500 to the Trustee. Also, in connection with each Purchase Order and Redemption Order (each as defined below) for two or more Baskets, the Authorized Participant shall pay an additional transaction fee, as follows:
Baskets Created or Redeemed Per Order |
Additional Transaction Fee | |||
2 |
$ | 500 | ||
3 |
$ | 1,000 | ||
4 |
$ | 1,500 | ||
5 or more |
$ | 2,000 |
The additional transaction fee described above shall be remitted to the Authorized Participant to the Trustee in accordance with these Procedures. The Trustee shall then remit payment of the additional transaction fee to the Sponsor. The fees described above shall collectively be referred to herein as Transaction Fees .
Authorized Participants and the Trust Transfer Singapore Dollars and Baskets
Upon acceptance of the Participant Agreement by the Sponsor and the Trustee, the Trustee will assign a personal identification number (a PIN ) to each person authorized to act for the Authorized Participant (an Authorized Person). This will allow the Authorized Participant through its Authorized Person(s) to place Purchase Order(s) or Redemption Order(s) (each as defined herein and, together, Orders ) for Baskets.

REDEMPTION PROCESS
OVERVIEW
The following describes the process by which Baskets are redeemed. In summary, an order to redeem one or more Baskets is placed by an Authorized Participant with the Trustee by 4:00 p.m. NYC time on the Business Day that is the Order Date under the Trust Agreement ( REDEMPTION T ), and a Basket is redeemed by 3:30 p.m. Zurich time (usually 9:30 a.m. NYC time) on the second Business Day following REDEMPTION T, unless that day is not a Local Business Day, in which case redemption of the Basket shall be the next following day that is both a Business Day and a Local Business Day ( REDEMPTION T+2 ). In order for the redemption of a Basket to occur, the Authorized Participant must pay a transaction fee and the Trustee will instruct the Depository to transfer to the Authorized Participant Swiss Francs corresponding to the Shares delivered for redemption.
R1 | REDEMPTION T (REDEMPTION ORDER TRADE DATE) |
R1.1 By the Order Cut-Off Time or the Early Order Cut-Off Time, as applicable, the Authorized Participant submits to the Trustee the Authorized Participants order to redeem one or more Baskets (a Redemption Order ) in accordance with the following process.
R1.1.1 The Authorized Participant submitting an order to redeem shall submit such requests containing the information required by the Trustee in the following manner: (a) through the Trustees electronic order entry system, as such may be made available and constituted from time to time, the use of which shall be subject to the terms and conditions in the Electronic Service Agreement; or (b) by telephone to the Trustees Transfer Agent Representative, according to the procedures set forth below.
R1.1.2 By the Order Cut-Off Time or the Early Order Cut-Off Time, as applicable, an Authorized Person of the Authorized Participant calls the Trustee at 718-315-7500, notifying the Trustee that the Authorized Participant wishes to place a Redemption Order for the Trustee to redeem an identified number of Baskets and requesting that the Trustee provide an order number. The Authorized Person provides a PIN as identification to the Trustee.
R1.1.3 Incoming telephone calls are queued and will be handled in the sequence received. The Trustee will process the Redemption Order(s) if the phone call initiated by the Authorized Person is placed before the Order Cut-Off Time or the Early Order Cut-Off Time as applicable, even though the remainder of the order process is not completed until after the Order Cut-Off Time or the Early Order Cut-Off Time. Accordingly, do not hang up and redial.
R1.1.4 Redemption Orders initiated after the Order Cut-Off Time or the Early Order Cut-Off Time, as applicable, are rejected.
R1.1.5 During the phone call from the Authorized Person of the Authorized Participant to initiate a Redemption Order, the Trustee will give an order number for the Authorized Participants Redemption Order.
R1.1.6 Within 15 minutes after the phone call initiating the Redemption Order, the Authorized Participant will fax the Redemption Order to the Trustee using the Redemption Order Form included as part of the Participant Agreement.
R1.1.7 The Redemption Order Form provides, among other things, for the number of Baskets that the Authorized Participant is redeeming and the condition that the Redemption Order is subject to Trustees receipt of the Transaction Fees by SPO/DTC Charge prior to the delivery of the Swiss Francs to the Authorized Participant on REDEMPTION T+2.
R1.1.8 If the Trustee has not received the Redemption Order Form from the Authorized Participant within 15 minutes after the Authorized Person placed the phone call to the Trustee, the Trustee places a phone call to the Authorized Participant to inquire about the status of the order. If the Authorized Participant does not fax the Redemption Order Form to the Trustee within 15 minutes after the Trustees phone call, the Authorized Participants order is cancelled, but the Authorized Participant will remain liable to the Trustee for the Transaction Fees.
74
R1.2 If the Trustee has received the Authorized Participants Redemption Order Form on time in accordance with the preceding timing rules, then by 5:00 p.m. NYC time on REDEMPTION T, the Trustee will return to the Authorized Participant a copy of the Redemption Order Form submitted, marking it Affirmed subject to receipt of Transaction Fees prior to delivery of the Swiss Francs on REDEMPTION T+2 and indicating, on a preliminary basis subject to confirmation, the number of Swiss Francs the Participant will receive upon redemption of the indicated Basket(s).
R1.3 For each Redemption Order, the Trustee sends an authenticated electronic message (SWIFT MT202) to the Depository indicating the amount of Swiss Francs to transfer from the Deposit Account by wire (RTGSplus, EBA EURO1, TARGET, or another funds transfer method acceptable to the Depository) to the Authorized Participants designated account by 3:30 p.m. Zurich time (usually 9:30 a.m. NYC time) on REDEMPTION T+2.

R3.4 As of 3:30 p.m. Zurich time (usually 9:30 a.m. NYC time), following the receipt of the authenticated confirmatory electronic message from the Trustee, the Depository executes the instructions from the Trustee to wire the Basket Swiss Francs Amount from the Trust Account and to transfer the Basket Swiss Francs Amount to the Authorized Participants designated account.

R3.4.2 By DTC free delivery cut-off time (usually 3:00 p.m. NYC time), the Trustees transfer agent services desk cancels the Authorized Participants Shares received for redemption and reduces the number of Trust Shares outstanding.
R3.5 Following the close of business (usually 4:00 p.m. Zurich time) on REDEMPTION T+2, the Depository makes the appropriate entries in its books and records to reflect the redemptions.
R3.6 Following the close of business (usually 4:00 p.m. Zurich time) on REDEMPTION T+2, the Depository Swiss Francs system updates its account records, recording the movements of Swiss Francs in the Deposit Account and providing updated balances in the affected accounts as of the close of business (usually 4:00 p.m. Zurich time) on REDEMPTION T+2.
R3.7 Following the close of business (usually 4:00 p.m. Zurich time) on REDEMPTION T+2, the Depository Swiss Francs system automatically generates an authenticated electronic message (SWIFT MT940 or Swift MT950) constituting a statement of the activity affecting the Deposit Account (received only by the Trustee).
