(a) The Licenses. Subject to the terms and conditions of the

(i) each of the Holding Trusts (x) a limited,
non-exclusive, non-transferable, fee-based license,
throughout the Territory for the Term to use the
Licensed Patents and Know-How solely in connection
with each Licensee's activities as an issuer of the
Holding Shares that employ the MACROs Structure, (y)
a limited, non-exclusive, and non-transferable,
fee-based license throughout the Territory for the
Term to use the Marks solely as a part of the name
of each Holding Trust and the MACRO Holding Shares
issued by such Holding Trust, and (z) a limited,
non-exclusive, and non-transferable, fee-based
sub-license throughout the
T-3
<PAGE>
Territory for the Term to use the Claymore Mark
solely as part of the Product Name in connection
with each Holding Trust's name and the names of the
MACRO Holding Shares issued by such Holding Trust;
and
(ii) each of the Tradeable Trusts (x) a limited,
non-exclusive, non-transferable, license throughout
the Territory for the Term to use the Licensed
Patents and Know-How solely in connection with each
Licensee's activities as an issuer of the respective
MACRO Tradeable Shares that employ the MACROs
Structure, (y) a limited, non-exclusive, and
non-transferable, royalty-free license throughout
the Territory for the Term to use the Marks solely
as a part of the name of each Tradeable Trust and
the MACRO Tradeable Shares issued by such Tradeable
Trust, and (z) a limited, non-exclusive, and
non-transferable, fee-based sub-license throughout
the Territory for the Term to use the Claymore Mark
solely as part of the Product Name in connection
with each Tradeable Trust's name and the names of
the MACRO Tradeable Shares issued by such Tradeable
Trust (collectively with (i), the "Licenses").
(b) No Right to Sublicense. Each Licensee hereby expressly agrees
not
to sublicense the Licenses to any Person without the express prior
written
consent of Licensor.
(c) Invalidation of Licensed Patents. Each Licensee acknowledges
that
the overall value of the licensed system is a function of, among
other factors,
the total Asset Amounts of the Holding Trusts. Accordingly, for
administrative
convenience, the royalties set forth in Section 5(a) hereunder are
calculated
based on the total Asset Amounts of the Holding Trusts regardless
of whether a
portion of such MACRO Holding Shares or MACRO Trading Shares are
sold and/or
administered in countries in which there are no pending, or in
force, Licensed
Patents. However, in the event that all of the patent claims in all
of the
Licensed Patents in the United States and any other jurisdiction
within the
Territory in which a substantial amount of revenue is derived
and/or a
substantial portion of the administration occurs (collectively,
with the United
States, the "Main Markets") have expired, or in the event that all
of the
patent claims in all remaining unexpired Licensed Patents in the
Main Markets
are finally determined (i.e., after exhaustion of all potential
appeals) to be
unpatentable, invalid or unenforceable by a court or other
government agency of
competent jurisdiction in all jurisdictions in which the Holding
Shares and
Offering Shares are sold, offered for sale, issued, or
administered, the
Licensing Fees payable under Section 5(a) hereunder shall
automatically be
reduced by five (5%) percent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no
such royalty
reduction shall apply to the Licensing Fee if a Licensed Patent
that is pending
or in force in the Main Markets.
(d) Marking; Usage Guidelines. Each Licensee shall mark patent
rights
with respect to any patents licensed hereunder in a manner as
reasonably
directed by Licensor and/or approved by Licensor in writing in
advance, such
approval not to be unreasonably withheld. Each Licensee shall
include
appropriate service mark and trademark notices, including the
following written
notice in connection with its use of the Licensed Marks (or such
other written
ownership notice as reasonably requested by Licensor from time to
time):
"[insert Mark] are service marks of Macro Markets, LLC and are used
under
license to [Licensee]." Each Licensee shall designate the MACRO
Structure, the
MACRO Holding Shares and the MACRO Tradeable Shares only through
the use of the
Product Name. Each Licensee shall adhere to Licensor's trademark
usage
guidelines with respect to the Marks and the Claymore Marks as
issued by
Licensor from time to time.
(e) Compliance with Law. Licensee shall comply with all
applicable
laws and regulations in connection with the creation, development,
and
marketing of the MACRO Structured Product, including all
regulations of the
SEC, NASD and any other applicable federal or state regulatory
authorities.

(f) ALL RIGHTS NOT SPECIFICALLY AND EXPRESSLY GRANTED TO LICENSEES
IN
THIS ARTICLE 2 ARE HEREBY RESERVED TO LICENSOR.
(g) Quality Control. Licensor shall have the right to review all
uses
of the Marks and the Claymore Marks by each Licensee hereunder, and
Licensees
shall furnish in advance to Licensor all materials, including,
where
applicable, any prospectus, or other offering, marketing, and
promotional
materials, to be used hereunder (collectively, the "Materials") in
connection
with the Trusts in which any of the Marks and the Claymore Marks
are used, for
Licensor's prior review and approval of the uses of the Marks and
Claymore
Marks therein. In the event the Materials are issued in a language
other than
English, Licensee shall provide Licensor with an English
translation of the
relevant portion of such materials. Licensor shall promptly notify
Licensee
following receipt thereof from Licensee. If Licensor does not
approve of any
use, it shall advise Licensee of its reasons. In this regard, each
Licensee
agrees that the quality of the services, in connection with which
the Marks and
the Claymore Marks may or will be used by such Licensee as
permitted herein,
will be commensurate with Licensor's reputation for reliability and
high
quality in financial services, and Licensor shall have the right to
require
each Licensee to adhere to that standard of quality. Each Licensee
shall do
nothing hereunder which will impair the validity of the Marks or
the Claymore
Marks, Licensor's or Claymore's rights in the Marks or the Claymore
Marks,
respectively, or the good will symbolized by each of the Marks.
3. ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF RIGHTS.

License Agreement shall accrue to the benefit of Licensor.
(b) Acknowledgement of Rights. Each Licensee agrees and

Licensor's ownership of the Marks, or initiate or participate in
any proceeding

obtain registration of (A) the Licenses, or (B) the Marks or any
variation
thereon or derivative thereof with any trademark, business or
domain name
registrar; or (iv) assist any other Person to do any of the
foregoing (except
if and to the extent required by court order or subpoena). Any
violation of
this Section 3(b) will constitute a material breach of the License
Agreement.
(c) Maintaining the Licenses. Each Licensee shall, at
Licensor's
expense, fully cooperate with and assist Licensor in the
maintenance of any
patent, trademark, or other applications and shall execute or
obtain execution
of any documents that Licensor shall reasonably request in
connection
therewith, including but not limited to any assignment of invention
rights.
(d) Improvements. Licensees acknowledge that Licensor shall own
all
improvements, modifications and derivative works of the MACROs
Structure and
the Licensed Patents and Know-How whether made by Licensor or any
Licensee,
alone or in combination (collectively, "Improvements"). Each
Licensee hereby
assigns all its rights
