WHEREAS, various authorized participants (the “Authorized Participants”), the Trustee and the Sponsor are parties to those certain Participant Agreements set forth on Schedule B hereto, as the same may have previously been amended (collectively the “Agreements” and individually, an “Agreement”); and

WHEREAS, the Trustee and the Sponsor desire to amend each of the Agreements on the terms and conditions set forth below.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the terms and conditions contained herein, and in accordance with Section 18(a) of each Agreement, each of the Agreements is hereby amended as follows:

1. Definitions. All capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the Agreements.

2. Amendments.

a. Section 5 of each Agreement is hereby revised in its entirety to read as follows:

“Section 5. Fees.

(a) In connection with each Order by an Authorized Participant to create or redeem one or more Baskets, the Trustee shall charge, and the Authorized Participant shall pay to the Trustee, the transaction fee prescribed in the Trust Agreement applicable to such creation or redemption. The initial transaction fee shall be five hundred dollars ($500). The transaction fee may be waived or otherwise adjusted from time to time as set forth in the Prospectus or the Procedures.

(b) In addition to the fee described in Section 5(a), in connection with each Order by an Authorized Participant to create or redeem two or more Baskets, the Sponsor shall charge, and the Authorized Participant shall pay to the Sponsor, an additional transaction fee applicable to such creation or redemption. The additional transaction fee shall range from five hundred dollars ($500) to two thousand dollars ($2,000), based on the number of Baskets created or redeemed

per Order. The additional transaction fee may be waived or otherwise adjusted from time to time as set forth in the Prospectus or the Procedures.

(c) Remittance of payment for the transaction fees set forth in Sections 5(a) and 5(b) shall be made in accordance with the Procedures.”

b. The fourth paragraph of Attachment A to each Agreement under the heading “CREATION AND REDEMPTION OF EURO CURRENCY SHARES AND RELATED EURO TRANSACTIONS - Scope of Procedures and Overview” is hereby revised in its entirety to read as follows:

“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 euro, 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:

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”.

c. All references to “Transaction Fee” contained in Attachment A to each Agreement are hereby revised to read “Transaction Fees”.

3. Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all such counterparts together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

4. Other. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Amendment and the terms of the Agreements, the terms of this Amendment shall control. All other terms and conditions of the Agreements shall remain in full force and effect.
