BUSINESS. Introduction Invesco DB US Dollar Index Bullish Fund (the “Fund”), a separate series of Invesco DB US Dollar Index Trust (the “Trust”), was formed as a Delaware statutory trust on August 3, 2006. BUSINESS Introduction Invesco DB US Dollar Index Bullish Fund (the “Fund”), a separate series of Invesco DB US Dollar Index Trust (the “Trust”), was formed as a Delaware statutory trust on August 3, 2006. The term of the Fund is perpetual (unless terminated earlier in certain circumstances) as provided for in the Fifth Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust and Trust Agreement of the Trust, as amended (the “Trust Agreement”). The Fund has an unlimited number of shares authorized for issuance. Invesco Capital Management LLC has served as the managing owner (the “Managing Owner”), commodity pool operator and commodity trading advisor of the Trust and the Fund since February 23, 2015. Invesco Capital Management LLC (“Invesco”) has served as the managing owner (the “Managing Owner”), commodity pool operator and commodity trading advisor of the Trust and the Fund since February 23, 2015. The Managing Owner holds 40 general shares (the “General Shares”) of the Fund. The fiscal year end of the Fund is December 31st. The Fund establishes long positions in certain futures contracts (the “DX Contracts”), with a view to tracking the changes, whether positive or negative, in the level of the Deutsche Bank Long USD Currency Portfolio Index–Excess ReturnTM (the “Index”), over time. The Index was renamed effective January 17, 2017. Prior to January 17, 2017, the Index was known as the Deutsche Bank Long US Dollar Index (USDX®) Futures Index-Excess ReturnTM. The Index, as renamed, is identical to the Index prior to its name change on January 17, 2017. The performance of the Fund also is intended to reflect the excess, if any, of the sum of the Fund’s interest income from its holdings of United States Treasury Obligations (“Treasury Income”), dividends from its holdings in money market mutual funds (affiliated or otherwise) (“Money Market Income”) and dividends or distributions of capital gains from its holdings of T-Bill ETFs (as defined below) (“T-Bill ETF Income”) over the expenses of the Fund. The Fund may invest directly in United States Treasury Obligations. The Fund may invest directly in United States Treasury Obligations. The Fund may also gain exposure to United States Treasury Obligations through investments in exchange-traded funds (“ETFs”) (affiliated or otherwise) that track indexes that measure the performance of United States Treasury Obligations with a maximum remaining maturity of up to 12 months (“T-Bill ETFs”). The Fund holds as collateral United States Treasury Obligations, money market mutual funds and T-Bill ETFs (affiliated or otherwise), if any, for margin and/or cash management purposes. While the Fund’s performance reflects the appreciation or depreciation of those holdings, the Fund’s performance, whether positive or negative, is driven primarily by its strategy of trading DX Contracts with the aim of seeking to track the Index. If the Managing Owner determines in its commercially reasonable judgment that it has become impracticable, including in scenarios wherein the futures market for a DX Contract is thinly traded, or inefficient for any reason for the Fund to gain full or partial exposure to a DX Contract, the Fund may invest in: •a different month DX Contract other than the specific DX Contract that was originally required by the Index, •another futures contract substantially similar to the DX Contracts, if available, •the futures contracts referencing the Index Currencies, or •a forward agreement, swap, or other OTC derivative referencing the Index Currencies, if, in the commercially reasonable judgment of the Managing Owner, such an instrument tends to exhibit trading prices that correlate with the DX Contract. If the Managing Owner determines in its commercially reasonable judgment that it has become impracticable or inefficient for any reason for the Fund to gain full or partial exposure to a DX Contract, the Fund may invest in: •a different month DX Contract other than the specific DX Contract that was originally required by the Index, •another futures contract substantially similar to the DX Contracts, if available, •the futures contracts referencing the Index Currencies, or •a forward agreement, swap, or other OTC derivative referencing the Index Currencies, if, in the commercially reasonable judgment of the Managing Owner, such an instrument tends to exhibit trading prices that correlate with the DX Contract. The Index reflects the changes in market value over time, whether positive or negative, of the DX Contracts which expire during the months of March, June, September and December. The Fund seeks to track the Index by establishing long positions in DX Contracts. DX Contracts are linked to the six underlying currencies (the “Index Currencies”) of the ICE U.S. Dollar Index (USDX®) (the “USDX®”). The Index Currencies are the Euro, Japanese Yen, British Pound, Canadian Dollar, Swedish Krona and Swiss Franc. The notional amounts of the Index Currencies included in the USDX® reflect a geometric weighted average of the change in the Index Currencies’ exchange rates against the U.S. dollar relative to March 1973. March 1973 was chosen as a base period of the USDX® because it represents a significant milestone in foreign exchange history when the world’s major trading nations allowed their currencies to float freely against each other. The Fund offers common units of beneficial interest (the “Shares”) only to certain eligible financial institutions (the “Authorized Participants”) in one or more blocks of 50,000 Shares (“Creation Units”). The Fund commenced investment operations on February 15, 2007. The Fund commenced trading on the American Stock Exchange (which became the NYSE Alternext US LLC) on February 20, 2007 and, since November 25, 2008, has been listed on the NYSE Arca, Inc. (the “NYSE Arca”). 1 Index Description The Managing Owner has entered into a license agreement with Deutsche Bank Securities, Inc. (the “Index Sponsor”) to use the Index.

The Index Sponsor may from time-to-time subcontract the provision of the calculation and other services described below to one or more third parties. The Index is calculated to reflect the changes in market value over time, whether positive or negative, of long positions in DX Contracts. The changes in market value over time, whether positive or negative, of DX Contracts is tied to the USDX®. The USDX® is composed of notional amounts of the Index Currencies. The notional amounts of the Index Currencies included in the USDX® reflect a geometric weighted average of the change in the Index Currencies’ exchange rates against the U.S. dollar relative to March 1973. March 1973 was chosen as a base period of the USDX® because it represents a significant milestone in foreign exchange history when the world’s major trading nations allowed their currencies to float freely against each other. The following table reflects the index base weights (the “Index Base Weights”) of each Index Currency as of March 1973 with respect to the USDX®: 2 The Euro was included in the USDX® in 1999 and replaced the following currencies that were originally included in the USDX®: Belgian Franc, Dutch Guilder, German Mark, French Franc and Italian Lira.

Please see http://www. 2 Please see http://www. invesco.com/ETFs with respect to the most recently available weighted composition of the Fund and the composition of the Index. Index Calculation The Index reflects the changes in market value over time, whether positive or negative, of long positions in the first to expire DX Contracts relative to the value of the dollar as of December 31, 1986 (the “Base Date”), which expire in March, June, September and December. On the Base Date, the closing level was 100.00. Although the DX Contract started trading in 1985, the Base Date of December 31, 1986 was selected because reasonably reliable pricing data was not available prior to December 31, 1986. A quote of “105.50” means the U.S. dollar’s value has risen 5.50% since the Base Date relative to the underlying Index Currencies which comprise the USDX®. The Index Sponsor calculates the closing level of the Index on both an excess return basis and a total return basis. The excess return index reflects the changes in market value over time, whether positive or negative, of the DX Contracts. The total return is the sum of the changes in market value over time, whether positive or negative, of the DX Contracts plus the return of 3-month U.S. Treasury Bills. The closing levels of the Index have been calculated using historic exchange closing price data of the DX Contracts since the Base Date. The use of long positions on DX Contracts in the construction of the Index causes the Index to rise as a result of any upward price movement in the DX Contracts. In turn, this appreciation in the long DX Contracts reflects the rise of the U.S. dollar relative to the underlying Index Currencies which comprise the USDX®. Index Rolls and Rebalancing of the USDX® The underlying DX Contracts of the Index are rolled quarterly over three consecutive business days starting on the Wednesday prior to the applicable IMM Date (each an “Index Roll Day”). “IMM Date” means the third Wednesday of March, June, September and December, a traditional settlement date in the International Money Market. DX Contracts are rolled on each Index Roll Day as follows: •On each Index Roll Day, 1/3 of the DX Contracts that will expire on the next IMM Date are sold and positions in the DX Contracts that expire on the IMM Date following the next IMM Date are purchased. DX Contracts are rolled on each Index Roll Day as follows: • On each Index Roll Day, 1/3 of the DX Contracts that will expire on the next IMM Date are sold and positions in the DX Contracts that expire on the IMM Date following the next IMM Date are purchased. •On each Index Roll Day, new notional holdings are calculated for the old DX Contracts leaving the Index as well as the new DX Contracts entering the Index. • On each Index Roll Day, new notional holdings are calculated for the old DX Contracts leaving the Index as well as the new DX Contracts entering the Index. •On all days that are not Index Roll Days, the notional holdings of the DX Contracts in the Index remain constant. • On all days that are not Index Roll Days, the notional holdings of the DX Contracts in the Index remain constant. There are no regularly scheduled adjustments or rebalancing of the USDX®. The USDX® has only been adjusted once, when the Euro was introduced as the common currency for the European Union (EU) bloc of countries. Without any other adjustments, the combination of components and their respective weightings in the USDX® have yielded performance results similar to other commonly used US dollar indexes, whether those index methodologies are based on trade weights or capital flow weights.

Pursuant to its authority, the CFTC requires a commodity pool operator (such as the Managing Owner) to keep accurate, current and orderly records with respect to each pool it operates. The CFTC may suspend the registration of a commodity pool operator if the CFTC finds that the operator has violated the Commodity Exchange Act or regulations thereunder and in certain other circumstances. Suspension, restriction or termination of the Managing Owner’s registration as a commodity pool operator would prevent it, until such time (if any) as such registration were to be reinstated, from managing, and might result in the termination of, the Fund. The Commodity Exchange Act gives the CFTC similar authority with respect to the activities of commodity trading advisors, such as the Managing Owner. If the registration of a managing owner as a commodity trading advisor were to be terminated, restricted or suspended, the managing owner would be unable, until such time (if any) as such registration were to be reinstated, to render trading advice to the Fund. If the registration of a managing owner as a commodity trading advisor were to be terminated, restricted or suspended, the managing owner 5 would be unable, until such time (if any) as such registration were to be reinstated, to render trading advice to the Fund.

The Commodity Exchange Act requires all “futures commission merchants,” such as the Commodity Broker, to meet and maintain specified fitness and financial requirements, to segregate customer funds from proprietary funds and account separately for all customers’ funds and positions, and to maintain specified books and records open to inspection by the staff of the CFTC. The Commodity Exchange Act also gives the states certain powers to enforce its provisions and the regulations of the CFTC. Shareholders are afforded certain rights for reparations under the Commodity Exchange Act. Shareholders may also be able to maintain a private right of action for certain violations of the Commodity Exchange Act. The CFTC has adopted rules implementing the reparation provisions of the Commodity Exchange Act which provide that any person may file a complaint for a reparations award with the CFTC for violation of the Commodity Exchange Act against a floor broker, FCM, introducing broker, commodity trading advisor, commodity pool operator, and their respective associated persons. 5 Pursuant to authority in the Commodity Exchange Act, the NFA was formed and registered with the CFTC as a “registered futures association.

Such conflicts, and other corresponding events, have had, and could continue to have, severe effects on regional and global economic and financial markets, including increased volatility, reduced liquidity, and overall uncertainty. Market Risks Fluctuations in the Price of Assets Held by the Fund Could Have a Materially Adverse Effect on the Value of an Investment in Shares. MARKET RISKS Fluctuations in the Price of Assets Held by the Fund Could Have a Materially Adverse Effect on the Value of an Investment in Shares. The Shares are designed to reflect as closely as possible the changes, positive or negative, in the level of the Index, over time, through the Fund’s investment in the DX Contracts. The value of the Shares relates directly to the value of the portfolio, less the liabilities (including estimated accrued but unpaid expenses) of the Fund. The price of the DX Contracts may fluctuate widely. Several factors may affect the prices of the DX Contracts, including, but not limited to: •National debt levels and trade deficits, including changes in balances of payments and trade; •Domestic and foreign interest rates and investors’ expectations concerning interest rates; •Domestic and foreign inflation rates and investors’ expectations concerning inflation rates; •Currency exchange rates; •Investment and trading activities by other futures market participants; •Global or regional political, economic or financial events and situations; •War or acts of terrorism; •Supply and demand changes which influence the foreign exchange rates of various currencies; 7 •Monetary policies of central banks (including exchange control programs, restrictions on local exchanges or markets and limitations on foreign investment in a country or on investment by residents of a country in other countries), trade restrictions, currency devaluations and re-valuations; •Governmental intervention in the currency market, directly and by regulation, in order to influence currency prices; and •Expectations among market participants that a currency’s value soon will change.

NAV May Not Always Correspond to Market Price and, as a Result, Creation Units May Be Created or Redeemed at a Value that Differs from the Market Price of the Shares. Shares may trade at, above or below their NAV. Shares may trade at, above or below their NAV. The NAV fluctuates with changes in the market value of the Fund’s assets. The trading price of Shares fluctuates in accordance with changes in the NAV, intraday changes in the value of the futures contracts and market supply and demand. The amount of the discount or premium in the trading price of the Shares relative to their NAV may be influenced by non-concurrent trading hours between NYSE Arca (the exchange on which the Shares trade) and ICE Futures U.S. While the Shares are expected to trade on NYSE Arca until 4:00 p.m. (Eastern time), liquidity in the markets for the DX Contracts is expected to be reduced whenever the market for those contracts are closed. As a result, trading spreads, and the resulting premium or discount on Shares, may widen during these gaps in market trading hours. The NYSE Arca May Halt Trading in the Shares Which Would Adversely Impact Your Ability to Sell Shares. The Shares are listed for trading on the NYSE Arca. Trading in Shares may be halted due to market conditions or in light of certain procedures and safeguards under NYSE Arca rules. In addition, trading is subject to trading halts caused by extraordinary market volatility pursuant to “circuit breaker” rules that require trading to be halted for a specified period based on a specified market decline. If the Fund were no longer to meet the requirements necessary to maintain the listing of its Shares, the Shares would be delisted. In such a scenario, the Fund would be terminated. The Lack of an Active Trading Market for the Shares May Result in Losses on Your Investment at the Time of Disposition of Your Shares. Although the Shares are listed and traded on the NYSE Arca, there can be no guarantee that an active trading market for the Shares will be maintained. If you need to sell your Shares at a time when no active market for them exists, the price you receive for your Shares, assuming that you are able to sell them, likely will be lower than the price you would receive if an active market did exist. Volatility May Cause the Total Loss of Your Investment. Futures contract prices have a high degree of volatility and are subject to rapid and substantial changes. Consequently, there is a risk that the value of your investment in the Fund could decrease significantly due to rapid and substantial changes in the prices of futures contracts held by the Fund. The Index’s average annual volatility is 8. The Index’s average annual volatility since inception is 8. 18%. Average annual volatility is the average of the Index’s volatility each year since its inception. Yearly volatility is the relative rate at which the price of the Index moves up and down, found by calculating the annualized standard deviation of the daily change in price for each business day in the given year. However, the average annual volatility should not be interpreted as the most-likely outcome. However, annual volatility should not be interpreted as the most-likely outcome. As demonstrated during the unprecedented market conditions in 2020, volatility in certain futures contracts may spike significantly during periods of global economic and social stress. At such times, if the Fund holds a futures contract that experiences the full impact of such market stresses, the volatility of its investments could greatly surpass the Index’s average annual volatility. In addition, the Fund enters sell orders with the Commodity Broker from time to time, to liquidate DX Contract positions in order to satisfy redemption requests or to pay expenses and liabilities. The Fund is subject to the risk that temporary aberrations or distortions will occur in the market for DX Contracts at the time those orders are executed. The prices received by the Fund from the liquidation of its positions could be adversely affected, which in turn could adversely affect the value of the Shares. Those aberrations or distortions may result from trading activities by other market participants or actions taken by the Commodity Broker, the CFTC, the exchange or other regulatory authorities. If the Fund’s positions are liquidated at inopportune times or during times when the market is temporarily distorted or otherwise experiencing a pricing aberration, the value of the Shares may be adversely affected. Further, in periods of heightened volatility, the bid and ask “spread” for purchasing shares of the Fund typically widens. 8 Further, in periods of heightened volatility, the bid and ask “spread” for purchasing shares of the Fund typically widen. Accordingly, an investor’s return on investment may be negatively impacted when transacted in Shares. Other Market Participants' Trading of DX Contracts May Adversely Affect the Price that the Fund Pays for DX Contracts. The prices that the Fund pays for DX Contracts may be adversely affected by the trading of DX Contracts by other market participants. Transactions by other market participants may be based on their awareness of the Fund’s positions in DX Contracts. If other market participants are able to anticipate the timing of the Fund’s DX Contract transactions, for instance, they may be able to 8 execute transactions in advance of the Fund. If that were to occur, those market participants may receive more favorable pricing for their DX Contract transactions than the Fund does for its own, subsequent DX Contract transactions. If the Fund’s DX Contract positions represent a significant part of the open long interest in those DX Contracts, moreover, other market participants may take that fact into account and trade in a manner that adversely affects the prices that the Fund obtains when trading DX Contracts. The Fund may not be able to counteract adverse pricing effects of its own positions and transactions in DX Contracts. Withdrawal from Participation by Authorized Participants May Affect the Liquidity of Shares. If one or more Authorized Participants withdraws from participation, it may become more difficult to create or redeem Creation Units, which may reduce the liquidity of the Shares. Such circumstances may be more pronounced in market conditions of increased volatility. If it becomes more difficult to create or redeem Creation Units, the correlation between the price of the Shares and the NAV may be affected, which may affect the trading market for the Shares. Having fewer participants in the market for the Shares could also adversely affect the ability to arbitrage any price difference between futures contracts and the Shares, which may also affect the trading market and liquidity of the Shares. Possible Illiquid Markets May Exacerbate Losses. Futures positions cannot always be liquidated at the desired price. It is difficult to execute a trade at a specific price when there is a relatively small volume of buy and sell orders in a market. A market disruption, such as when foreign governments may take or be subject to political actions which disrupt the markets in their currencies or major commodities exports, can also make it difficult to liquidate a position. Illiquidity may cause losses for the Fund. The large size of the positions which the Fund may acquire increases the risk of illiquidity by both making its positions more difficult to liquidate and increasing the losses incurred while trying to do so. International Armed Conflicts May Result in Market Volatility that Could Adversely Affect the Fund's Performance. As a result of increasingly interconnected global economies and financial markets, armed conflict between countries or in a geographic region, for example the current conflicts between Russia and Ukraine in Europe and Hamas and Israel in the Middle East, may impact the Fund's investments. Such conflicts, and other corresponding events, have had, and could continue to have, severe effects on regional and global economic and financial markets, including increased volatility, reduced liquidity, and overall uncertainty. Hamas' attack against Israel in October 2023 and the ensuing conflict, have had, and may continue to have, an impact on certain markets, including futures markets. While this impact has been particularly pronounced in energy markets (such as natural gas and oil), the conflict has also disrupted certain global shipping and trade routes, which may have wide ranging impacts across markets. For example, the Houthi movement, which controls parts of Yemen, launched a number of attacks on marine vessels in the Red Sea. The United States has sought to deter these attacks. The Red Sea is an important maritime route for international trade. As a result of these disruptions, companies have re-routed vessels around the Cape of Good Hope rather than transiting through the Suez Canal and/or the Red Sea. The possibility of a prolonged conflict between Hamas and Israel, and the potential expansion of the conflict in the surrounding areas and the involvement of other nations in such conflict, could further destabilize the Middle East region and introduce new uncertainties in global markets. Following Russia's invasion of Ukraine in late February 2022, various countries, including the United States, Australia, Canada, the United Kingdom, Switzerland, Germany, France, and Japan, as well as NATO and the European Union, issued broad-ranging economic sanctions against Russia and Belarus. Russia may take additional countermeasures or retaliatory actions (including cyberattacks), which could exacerbate negative consequences on global financial markets. Russia may take additional counter measures or retaliatory actions (including cyberattacks), which could exacerbate negative consequences on global financial markets. The duration of ongoing hostilities and corresponding sanctions and related events cannot be predicted. Impacts from the conflict and related events may result in increased volatility in the value of Index Currencies and may have an adverse effect on the performance of the Fund and value of the Shares. Impacts from the conflict and related events may result in increased volatility in the value of the Index Currencies and may have an adverse effect on the performance of the Fund and value of the Shares. Pandemics and Other Public Health Emergencies, Including the Emergence of New COVID-19 Variants, Could Disrupt the Global Economy and Adversely Impact the Fund’s Performance. Pandemics and other public health emergencies, including the emergence of new COVID-19 variants, could disrupt the global economy and adversely impact the Fund’s performance. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic was extensive in many aspects of society. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic was extensive in many aspects of society. The outbreak resulted in a significant number of deaths, adversely impacted global commercial activity, and led to significant uncertainty and disruptions in the global economy and financial markets. Many countries reacted by instituting quarantines, prohibitions on travel and the closure of offices, businesses, schools, retail stores and other public venues. Businesses also implemented similar precautionary measures. While restrictions have eased, it is possible that they may be reinstated in the future in response to new variants or new public health emergencies. Such measures, as well as the general uncertainty surrounding the dangers and impact of a future public health crisis, may result in significant disruption in supply chains and economic activity. Such measures, as well as the general uncertainty surrounding the dangers and impact of COVID-19, including new variants and mutations of the virus, created significant disruption in supply chains and economic activity. Consumer, corporate and financial confidence may be materially adversely affected by a future outbreak. Consumer, corporate and financial confidence was materially adversely affected by the outbreak. Such erosion of confidence may lead to or extend to a localized or global economic downturn. Future pandemics and other public health emergencies could exacerbate political, social, and economic risks and result in significant 9 breakdowns, delays, and other disruptions to the economy, with potential corresponding results on the performance of the Fund and its investments. Future pandemics and other public health emergencies could exacerbate political, social, and economic risks and result in significant breakdowns, delays, and other disruptions to the economy, with potential corresponding results on the performance of the Fund and its investments. The Effect of Market Disruptions and Government Interventions Are Unpredictable and May Have an Adverse Effect on the Value of Your Shares. The Effect of Market Disruptions and Government Interventions Are Unpredictable and May Have an Adverse Effect on the Value of Your Shares. The commodity futures markets may be subject to temporary distortions due to various factors, including lack of liquidity, congestion, disorderly closing periods, manipulation and disruptive conduct, limitations on deliverable supplies, excessive speculation, government regulation and intervention, technical and operational or system failures, nuclear accidents, terrorism, riots and acts of God. Government intervention has in certain cases been implemented on an “emergency” basis, suddenly and substantially eliminating market participants’ ability to continue to implement certain strategies or manage the risk of their outstanding positions. These interventions have typically been unclear in scope and application, resulting in confusion and uncertainty which in itself has been materially detrimental to the efficient functioning of the markets as well as previously successful investment strategies. The financial crisis of 2008-2009 and associated regulatory changes, including the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”), are generally considered to have contributed to less credit being available to financial market participants. This is particularly the case for credit extended by banks and other traditional lending sources. The Fund does not borrow from lenders for the purpose of pursuing its investment objective. Nonetheless, restrictions on the availability of credit may adversely affect investors who borrow to purchase Shares and participants in the markets for financial instruments in which the Fund trades, including futures markets. Limitations on the availability of credit, whether in stressed market conditions or otherwise, may have a material adverse effect on investors and financial market participants, which in turn could affect the Fund’s ability to pursue its investment objective. Among other things, fewer prospective investors may adversely affect the Fund’s asset levels, and fewer financial market participants may reduce liquidity and adversely affect pricing for the financial instruments that the Fund seeks to trade. The Fund may incur major losses in the event of disrupted markets and other extraordinary events in which historical pricing relationships become materially distorted. The risk of loss from pricing distortions is compounded by the fact that in disrupted markets many positions become illiquid, making it difficult or impossible to close out or liquidate positions against which the markets are moving. The large size of the positions which the Fund may acquire increases the risk of illiquidity by both making its positions more difficult to liquidate and increasing the losses incurred while trying to do so. The financing available to market participants is typically reduced in disrupted markets. Such a reduction may result in substantial losses to the affected market participants, including the Fund and its Shareholders. An Investment in the Shares May Be Adversely Affected by Competition from Other Methods of Investing in Currencies. The Fund competes with other financial vehicles, including mutual funds, ETFs and other investment companies, other index tracking commodity pools, actively traded commodity pools, hedge funds, other securities backed by or linked to currencies, and direct investments in the underlying currencies or the DX Contracts. The Fund competes with other financial vehicles, including mutual funds, ETFs and other investment companies, other index tracking commodity pools, actively traded commodity pools, hedge funds, traditional debt and equity securities issued by companies in the commodities industry, other securities backed by or linked to currencies, and direct investments in the underlying currencies or the DX Contracts. Market and financial conditions, and other conditions beyond the Managing Owner’s control, may make it more attractive to invest in other financial vehicles or to invest in such currencies directly, which could limit the market for the Shares and therefore reduce the liquidity of the Shares. The NAV Calculation of the Fund May Be Overstated or Understated Due to the Valuation Method Employed When a Settlement Price Is Not Available on the Date of NAV Calculation. Calculating the NAV of the Fund includes, in part, any unrealized profits or losses on open DX Contracts. Under normal circumstances, the NAV of the Fund reflects the settlement price of open DX Contracts on the date when the NAV is being calculated. However, if a settlement price for a DX Contract could not be determined for any reason, the Managing Owner may value the DX Contract pursuant to policies the Managing Owner has adopted. In such a situation, there is a risk that the resulting calculation of the Fund’s NAV could be understated or overstated, perhaps to a significant degree. Exchange Rates on the Index Currencies Could Be Volatile and Could Materially and Adversely Affect the Performance of the Shares. Foreign exchange rates are influenced by a variety of factors, including the following: •National debt levels and trade deficits; •Domestic and foreign inflation rates; and •Investors’ expectations concerning inflation rates: 10 •Domestic and foreign interest rates; •Currency exchange rates; •Investment and trading activities from mutual funds, hedge funds and currency funds; and •Global or regional political, economic or financial events and situations. Foreign exchange rates are influenced by a variety of factors, including the following: • National debt levels and trade deficits; • Domestic and foreign inflation rates; and • Investors’ expectations concerning inflation rates: o Domestic and foreign interest rates; o Currency exchange rates; 10 o Investment and trading activities from mutual funds, hedge funds and currency funds; and o Global or regional political, economic or financial events and situations. Foreign exchange rates on the Index Currencies may also be influenced by changing supply and demand for a particular Index Currency, monetary policies of governments (including exchange control programs, restrictions on local exchanges or markets and limitations on foreign investment in a country or on investment by residents of a country in other countries), changes in balances of payments and trade, trade restrictions, currency devaluations and revaluations. Governments may intervene in the currency markets in order to influence currency values directly. Expectations among market participants that a currency’s value soon will change may also affect exchange rates on the Index Currencies, and in turn, both the Index and the DX Contracts. These events and actions are unpredictable. The resulting volatility in the exchange rates on the underlying Index Currencies may materially and adversely affect the market value of the DX Contracts, which would then negatively impact the value of your Shares. Substantial Sales of Index Currencies by the Official Sector Could Adversely Affect an Investment in the Shares. The official sector consists of central banks, other governmental agencies and multi-lateral institutions that buy, sell and hold certain Index Currencies as part of their reserve assets. The official sector holds a significant amount of Index Currencies that can be mobilized in the open market. In the event that future economic, political or social conditions require members of the official sector to sell significant amounts of their Index Currency holdings, such an increase in supply may outstrip demand for Index Currencies and depress their prices. Such a decline in prices may materially and adversely affect the market value of DX Contracts, which would negatively impact the Shares. Uncertainty Surrounding the United Kingdom’s Withdrawal from the European Union Could Adversely Affect an Investment in the Shares. On January 31, 2020, the United Kingdom (“UK”) formally withdrew from the European Union (“EU”) (known as “Brexit”) and, after a transition period, left the EU single market and customs union under the terms of a new trade agreement on December 31, 2020. The agreement governs the new relationship between the UK and EU with respect to trading goods and services, but critical aspects of the relationship remain unresolved and subject to further negotiation and agreement. The complete impact of the new agreement, as well as the full scope and nature of the consequences of the exit, are not at this time known and are unlikely to be known for a significant period of time and may impact the future direction of the value of the Index Currencies included in the USDX® and, in turn, the Shares. These uncertainties could increase volatility in the market prices of the Index Currencies included in the USDX® and, in turn, the Shares. Futures Risks Margin Requirements and Risk Limits for Futures Contracts may Limit the Fund’s Ability to Achieve Sufficient Exposure and Prevent the Fund from Achieving its Investment Objective. FUTURES RISKS Margin Requirements and Risk Limits for Futures Contracts may Limit the Fund’s Ability to Achieve Sufficient Exposure and Prevent the Fund from Achieving its Investment Objective. “Initial” or “original” margin is the minimum amount of funds that must be deposited by a futures trader with his commodity broker in order to initiate futures trading or to maintain an open position in futures contracts. “Maintenance” margin is the amount (generally less than initial margin) to which a trader’s account may decline before he must deliver additional margin. A margin deposit is like a cash performance bond. It helps assure the futures trader’s performance of the futures contract that the trader purchases or sells. Futures contracts are customarily bought and sold on margin that represents a very small percentage (ranging upward from less than 2%) of the purchase price of the underlying commodity being traded. Because of such low margins, price fluctuations occurring in the futures markets may create profits and losses that are greater, in relation to the amount invested, than are customary in other forms of investments. The minimum amount of margin required in connection with a particular futures contract is set from time to time by the exchange on which such contract is traded, and may be modified from time to time by the exchange during the term of the contract. With respect to the Managing Owner’s trading, only the Managing Owner, and not the Fund or its Shareholders personally, will be subject to margin calls. Brokerage firms carrying accounts for traders in futures contracts may not accept lower, and generally require higher, amounts of margin as a matter of policy in order to afford further protection for themselves. An FCM may compute margin requirements multiple times per day and must do so at least once per day. When the Fund has an open futures contract position, it is subject to daily variation margin calls by an FCM that could be substantial in the event of adverse price movements. Because futures contracts require only a small initial investment in the form of a deposit or initial margin, they involve a high degree of leverage. A Fund with open positions is subject to maintenance or variation margin on its open positions. When the market value of a particular open futures contract position changes to a point where the margin on deposit does 11 not satisfy maintenance margin requirements, a margin call is made by the FCM. When the market value of a particular open futures contract position changes to a point where the margin on deposit does not satisfy maintenance margin requirements, a margin call is made by the FCM. If the margin call is not met within a reasonable time, the FCM may close out the Fund’s position, which may result in reduced returns to the Fund’s investors or impair the Fund from achieving its investment objective. If the Fund has insufficient cash to meet daily variation margin requirements, it may need to sell assets at a time when doing so is disadvantageous. Futures markets are highly volatile in general, and may become more volatile during periods of market or economic volatility, and the use of or exposure to futures contracts may increase volatility of the Fund’s NAV. In addition, an FCM may impose margin requirements in addition to those imposed by the clearinghouse. 11 In addition, an FCM may impose margin requirements in addition to those imposed by the clearinghouse. Margin requirements are subject to change on any given day, and may be raised in the future on a single day or on multiple or successive days by either or both of the clearinghouse and the FCM. High margin requirements could prevent the Fund from obtaining sufficient exposure to futures contracts and may adversely affect the Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective. An FCM’s failure to return required margin to the Fund on a timely basis may cause the Fund to delay redemption settlement dates or restrict, postpone, or limit the right of redemption. Futures contracts are subject to liquidity risk. An FCM may impose risk limits on the Fund, which restrict the amount of exposure to futures contracts that the Fund can obtain through the FCM. A futures exchange may also impose risk limits on the Fund. If the risk limits imposed by an FCM or a futures exchange do not provide sufficient exposure, the Fund may not be able to achieve its investment objective. If the risk limits imposed by an FCM do not provide sufficient exposure, the Fund may not be able to achieve its investment objective. Because the DX Contracts Have No Intrinsic Value, the Positive Performance of Your Investment Is Wholly Dependent Upon an Equal and Offsetting Loss. Trading in futures contracts transfers the risk of future price movements from one market participant to another. For every gain in futures trading, there is an equal and offsetting loss. Accordingly, whether a futures trade is profitable for one party depends on whether the price paid, value received, or cost of delivery under the related futures contract is favorable to that party. The prices of stocks, bonds, and other assets could rise significantly, and the economy as a whole could prosper, while the Fund experiences losses as a result of pursuing its investment objective through trading the DX Contracts. The Fund May Not Provide a Diversification Benefit to Investments in Other Asset Classes and May Result in Additional Losses to Your Portfolio. Historically, currency futures returns have tended not to be correlated with the returns of other assets such as stocks and bonds. Currency futures contracts therefore have the potential to help diversify investor portfolios consisting of stocks and bonds, to the extent there is low or negative correlation between currency futures contracts and other assets held in those portfolios. However, the fact that the Index is not inversely correlated with other assets such as stocks and bonds means that, in seeking to replicate the performance of the Index, the Fund will not necessarily be profitable during unfavorable periods for the stock or bond markets. If the Shares perform in a manner that correlates with the stock or bond markets or otherwise do not perform successfully, the Shares may not provide any diversification from losses in those markets. In such a scenario, the Shares may produce no gains to offset losses from investments in stocks, bonds, or related assets and may result in additional investment losses. Over-the-Counter-Trading Risks Trading Forwards and Swaps May Subject the Fund to Risks that Differ from Risks Associated with Trading Futures Contracts. If the Managing Owner determines in its commercially reasonable judgment that it has become impracticable or inefficient for any reason for the Fund to gain full or partial exposure to the DX Contracts, the Fund may enter into forwards or swaps referencing the Index Currencies. A forward contract is an agreement to exchange one currency for another on a future date at a fixed rate agreed upon at the inception of the forward contract. Performance of a forward contract’s terms is not guaranteed by an exchange or clearinghouse; rather, banks and dealers act as principals in these markets. If it enters into forward, therefore, the Fund will be subject to risks of dealing with a counterparty, which differ from the risks involved with trading futures contracts on an exchange (or with trading swaps that are subject to centralized clearing and/or executed on a trading facility). For instance, there would be a risk that the counterparty would become unable or unwilling to honor its obligations on the forward agreement. Even if it is able to honor its obligations, a counterparty could determine not to perform on the contract because of a dispute over its terms (whether or not bona fide) or for other reasons. These counterparty risks will expose the Fund to potential for losses associated with default, other nonperformance, or delays in liquidating or transferring the forward contract. Foreign exchange forward contracts that provide for and result in the actual delivery of the subject currencies are not subject to regulation by the CFTC to the same extent as futures and swaps. Foreign exchange forward contracts that provide for and result in the actual delivery of the subject currencies are not subject to regulation by the CFTC to the same extent as futures and swaps. As a result, the Fund will not benefit from regulatory protections like those that apply to the trading of futures contracts (or to swaps) under CFTC regulations. 12 In addition, there is currently no limitation on the daily price movements of forward contracts. In addition, there is currently no limitation on the daily price movements of forward contracts. To the extent that assets are deposited with the counterparty as margin, such assets are not currently required under CFTC regulations or any other regulations to be held in a segregated account for the benefit of the Fund. Consequently, assets deposited by the Fund with a counterparty as margin may be indistinguishable, for insolvency purposes, from assets of such counterparty and therefore may be subject to creditors’ claims in the event of such counterparty’s insolvency, and not available for timely recall by the Fund. Swap agreements can take the form of either privately negotiated, over-the-counter transactions or standardized, centrally cleared transactions. In each case, swaps involve an agreement in which two parties agree to exchange actual or contingent payment streams that may be calculated in relation to the Index Currencies and a particular “notional amount.” A significant factor in the performance of swaps is the change in the value of the underlying currencies, specific interest rates, or other factors that determine the amounts of payments due to and from the counterparties. If a swap calls for payments by the Fund, the Fund must have sufficient cash available to make such payments as they become due. Uncleared, over-the-counter swaps present counterparty risks similar to those present with forward contracts. Uncleared, over-the-counter swaps present counterparty risks similar to those present with forward contracts. In addition, over-the-counter swaps may be subject to significant “bid-ask” spreads, which can adversely affect the Fund’s ability to enter into swaps in pursuing its investment objective. While market makers and dealers may quote indicative prices or terms for entering into or terminating these contracts, they are not obligated to do so – particularly if they are not a party to the contract in question. As a result, it may be difficult to obtain reliable pricing for, or otherwise value, an uncleared, over-the-counter swap. Cleared swaps present similar risks to those of futures contracts, particularly with respect to market, clearance, and settlement risks. Cleared swaps present similar risks to those of futures contracts, particularly with respect to market, clearance, and settlement risks. However, the customer protections afforded to customers engaged in trading cleared swaps differ from those afforded to customers that trade futures contracts. However, the customer protections afforded to customers engaged in trading cleared swaps differ from those afforded to customers that trade futures contracts. Under the CFTC’s cleared swaps customer protection regime, referred to as “LSOC” (legally segregated, operationally commingled), in the event of the failure of a clearing member, a clearinghouse may not use the entire pool of the failed clearing member’s cleared swaps customer collateral to cure a customer default without regard to ownership of the collateral like it may with futures customer collateral. Under the Dodd-Frank Act, the CFTC has implemented several regulations that are intended to enhance transparency in the swaps markets and to provide protections to swap counterparties (e. Under the Dodd-Frank Act, the CFTC has implemented several regulations that are intended to enhance transparency in the swaps markets and to provide protections to swap counterparties (e. g., swap recordkeeping and reporting requirements, mandatory clearing and on-facility trade execution for major swap classes, swap dealer registration and business conduct standards, and margin requirements for uncleared transactions). Although the Fund may benefit from these protections to the extent it enters into swaps, the Fund will nonetheless be exposed to the risk of loss on those transactions. The costs of compliance with regulations governing the swaps markets may also detract from the Fund’s performance, to the extent those costs are passed on by swap counterparties or are otherwise borne by the Fund. It is also possible that the CFTC’s swap regulations may not function as intended and, as a consequence, may fail to protect the Fund from counterparty or other risks associated with its swap trading. Foreign exchange swap contracts that provide for and result in the actual delivery of the subject currencies, and that provide for and result in the reverse exchange of the same currencies at a later date, are not subject to regulation by the CFTC to the same extent as futures and other swaps. As a result, the Fund will not benefit from regulatory protections like those that apply to the trading of futures contracts (or to other swaps) under CFTC regulations. Index Risks The Fund’s Performance May Not Always Replicate the Changes in the Levels of its Index. INDEX RISKS The Fund’s Performance May Not Always Replicate the Changes in the Levels of its Index. Tracking the Index requires trading of the Fund’s portfolio with a view to tracking the Index over time and is dependent upon the skills of the Managing Owner and its trading principals, among other factors. It is possible that the Fund’s performance may not fully replicate the changes in levels of the Index due to disruptions in the markets for the relevant Index Currencies, the DX Contracts, or due to other extraordinary circumstances. The Managing Owner may determine to invest in other futures contracts if at any time it is impractical, including in scenarios wherein the futures market for a DX Contract is thinly traded, or inefficient to gain full or partial exposure to the Index Currencies through the DX Contracts. The Managing Owner may determine to invest in other futures contracts if at any time it is impractical, including in scenarios wherein the futures market is thinly traded, or inefficient to gain full or partial exposure to the Index Currencies through the DX Contracts. In addition, the Fund may not be able to replicate the changes in levels of the Index because the total return generated by the Fund is reduced by expenses and transaction costs, including those incurred in connection with the Fund’s trading activities, and increased by, as applicable, Treasury Income, Money Market Income and T-Bill ETF Income. In addition, the Fund may not be able to replicate the changes in levels of the Index because the total return generated by the Fund is reduced by expenses and transaction costs, including those incurred in connection with the Fund’s trading activities, and increased by, as applicable, Treasury Income, Money Market Income and T-Bill ETF Income. There can be no guarantee that the Index or the underlying methodology is free from error. It is also possible that third parties may seek to manipulate the value of the Index or the Index Currencies which, if successful, would be likely to have an adverse effect on the Fund’s performance. The Fund Is Not Actively Managed and Tracks the Index During Periods in Which the Index Is Flat or Declining as well as When the Index Is Rising. 13 The Fund is not actively managed on the basis of judgments relating to economic, financial and market conditions with a view to obtaining positive results under all market conditions. The Fund is not actively managed on the basis of judgments relating to economic, financial and market conditions with a view to obtaining positive results under all market conditions. Instead, the Managing Owner seeks to cause the NAV to track the performance of the Index during periods in which the Index is flat or declining as well as when the Index is rising. Therefore, under normal market conditions, if positions in any one or more of the Index Currencies are declining in value, the Fund will not close out such positions, except in connection with a change in the composition or weighting of the Index. Therefore, if positions in any one or more of the Index Currencies are declining in value, the Fund will not close out such positions, except in connection with a change in the composition or weighting of the Index. Fewer Representative Index Currencies May Result in Greater Index Volatility. The Index Currencies are the Euro, Japanese Yen, British Pound, Canadian Dollar, Swedish Krona and Swiss Franc. Other currency indexes may contain a larger number of currencies than the Index. Accordingly, increased volatility in a single Index Currency is expected to have a greater impact on the Index’s overall volatility than would likely be the case with increased volatility in a single currency within a more diversified index. Because the Fund tracks the performance of the Index, your investment in the Fund will be exposed to the relatively greater impact on the Index of volatility in a single Index Currency. Investors Who Invest Only in the Fund May Not Be Able to Profit if the Market Value of the DX Contracts Moves Against Such Investment. The NAV of the Fund is expected to rise as a result of any upward price movement in the Fund’s long positions in the DX Contracts. If the price of the Fund’s long positions in DX Contracts increases, the NAV of the Fund will increase. If the price of the Fund’s long positions in DX Contracts decreases, the NAV of the Fund will decrease. Therefore, the investment experience of investors who plan to invest in the Fund will depend upon the price movements of the Fund’s long positions in its DX Contracts. The Fund may become unprofitable in the future if the price of the DX Contracts moves in an adverse direction. Certain investors who decide to invest in both the Fund and the Invesco DB US Dollar Index Bearish Fund (‘‘UDN’’) may, nevertheless, suffer losses if the investor’s investment mix between the Fund and UDN is biased in one direction and the market price of the DX Contracts moves in an adverse direction. Certain investors who decide to invest in both the Fund and the Invesco DB US Dollar Index Bearish Fund (‘‘UDN’’) may, nevertheless, suffer losses if the investor’s investment mix between the Fund and UDN is biased in one direction and the market price of the DX Contracts moves in an adverse direction. Additionally, investors should not invest in equal amounts in both the Fund and UDN simultaneously. The net effect of such an investment will be the sum of the Treasury Income, the Money Market Income and T-Bill ETF Income, less fees and expenses. If You Sell Your Shares at a Time When the DX Contracts Are Being Traded at a Discount, You Would Receive an Amount that Would Be Lower than if the DX Contracts Were Trading at a Premium. If You Sell Your Shares at a Time When the DX Contracts Are Being Traded at a Discount, You Would Receive an Amount that Would Be Lower than if the DX Contracts Were Trading at a Premium. The price of DX Contracts responds directly to short-term interest rate differentials. The price of DX Contracts responds directly to short-term interest rate differentials. For example, if interest rates in the U.S. are broadly higher than international interest rates, then the DX Contracts will trade at a discount to the spot index. If U.S. rates are lower, then the DX Contracts will trade at a premium to the spot index. This relationship also holds for long-dated futures versus nearby futures. Because interest rates move up and down, DX Contracts may trade at a premium some of the time and at a discount at other times. In turn, if you sell your Shares during a period when the DX Contracts are trading at a discount, you may receive less than you may have received if you sold your shares during a period when the DX Contracts are trading at a premium. Unusually Long Peak-to-Valley Drawdown Periods with Respect to the Index May Be Reflected in Equally Long Peak-to-Valley Drawdown Periods with Respect to the Performance of the Shares. Unusually Long Peak-to-Valley Drawdown Periods with Respect to the Index May Be Reflected in Equally Long Peak-to-Valley Drawdown Periods with Respect To the Performance of the Shares. “Peak-to-valley drawdown” represents the cumulative percentage decline in month-end NAV per Share due to losses sustained during any period in which the initial month-end NAV per Share is not equaled or exceeded by a subsequent month-end NAV per Share. Although past Index levels are not necessarily indicative of future Index levels, the peak-to-valley drawdown periods that the Index has experienced occasionally have been unusually long and have lasted for multi-year drawdown periods. Because it is expected that the Fund’s performance will track the change of its underlying Index, the Fund would experience a continuous drawdown during the period that the Index experiences such a drawdown. Because it is expected that the Fund’s performance will track the change of its underlying Index, the Fund would experience a continuous drawdown during the period that the Index experiences such a drawdown. The value of your Shares will also decrease during such a period. Regulatory Risks Position Limits and Other Potential Limitations on Futures Trading May Restrict the Creation of Creation Units and the Operation of the Fund. REGULATORY RISKS Position Limits and Other Potential Limitations on Futures Trading May Restrict the Creation of Creation Units and the Operation of the Fund. Position Limits. CFTC and futures exchange rules impose position limits on market participants that trade in certain futures contracts. These position limits prohibit any person from holding a position of more than a specific number of futures contracts. 14 Generally, position limits in the physical delivery markets are set at a stricter level during the spot month, the month when the futures contract matures and becomes deliverable, versus the limits set for all other months or for any other month individually. Generally, position limits in the physical delivery markets are set at a stricter level during the spot month, the month when the futures contract matures and becomes deliverable, versus the limits set for all other months or for any other month individually. Limits are generally applied on an aggregate basis to positions held in accounts that are subject to common ownership or common control. There are exemptions from this general aggregation requirement. The Index currently is not composed of any contracts subject to position limits imposed by either the CFTC or the rules of ICE Futures U. The Index currently is not composed of any contracts subject to position limits imposed by either the CFTC or the rules of ICE Futures U. S. To the extent position limits apply to the Fund, and if the Managing Owner determines that the Fund’s trading may be approaching any of these position limits, the Fund may reduce its trading in the corresponding commodity futures contracts or may trade futures contracts in other commodities that the Managing Owner determines will best position the Fund to pursue its investment objective. Depending on the outcome of any future CFTC or futures exchange rulemaking, as applicable, the rules concerning position limits may be amended in a manner that is detrimental to the Fund. Accountability Levels. 14 Accountability Levels. Exchanges may establish accountability levels applicable to futures contracts instead of position limits, provided that the futures contract is not subject to federal position limits. An exchange may order a person who holds or controls a position in excess of a position accountability level not to further increase its position, to comply with any prospective limit that exceeds the size of the position owned or controlled, or to reduce any open position that exceeds the position accountability level if the exchange determines that such action is necessary to maintain an orderly market. Position accountability levels could adversely affect the Fund’s ability to establish and maintain positions in commodity futures contracts to which such levels apply, if the Fund were to trade in such contracts. Such an outcome could adversely affect the Fund’s ability to pursue its investment objective. Daily Limits. Daily Limits. U.S. futures exchanges and some foreign exchanges have regulations that limit the amount of fluctuation in futures contract prices that may occur during a single business day. These limits are generally referred to as “daily price fluctuation limits” or “daily limits,” and the maximum or minimum price of a contract on any given day as a result of these limits is referred to as a “limit price.” Once a limit price has been reached in a particular contract, it is usually the case that no trades may be made at a different price than specified in the limit. The duration of limit prices generally varies. Limit prices may have the effect of precluding the Fund from trading in a particular contract or requiring the Fund to liquidate contracts at disadvantageous times or prices. Either of those outcomes could adversely affect the Fund’s ability to pursue its investment objective or achieve favorable performance. If the Fund became subject to position limits, position accountability levels or daily limits in the future, it may not be able to issue new Creation Units or reinvest income in additional currency futures contracts to the extent these restrictions limit its ability to establish new futures positions or otherwise transact in futures contracts. Limiting the size of the Fund, or restricting the Fund’s futures trading, under these requirements may affect the correlation between the price of the Shares, as traded on the NYSE Arca, and the NAV of the Shares. Failure of FCMs or Commodity Brokers to Segregate Assets May Cause Losses for the Fund. Failure of Futures Commission Merchants or Commodity Brokers to Segregate Assets May Cause Losses for the Fund. The Commodity Exchange Act requires an FCM to segregate all funds received from customers from such FCM’s proprietary assets. If the Commodity Broker fails to segregate customer assets as required, the assets of the Fund might not be fully protected in the event of the Commodity Broker’s distress, impairment or bankruptcy. Furthermore, in the event of the Commodity Broker’s distress, impairment or bankruptcy, the Fund could be delayed in recovering Fund assets, limited to recovering pro rata share of all available funds segregated on behalf of the Commodity Broker’s combined customer accounts or the Fund may not recover any assets at all, even though certain property specifically traceable to the Fund was held by the Commodity Broker. Furthermore, in the event of the Commodity Broker’s bankruptcy, the Fund could be limited to recovering either a pro rata share of all available funds segregated on behalf of the Commodity Broker’s combined customer accounts or the Fund may not recover any assets at all, even though certain property specifically traceable to the Fund was held by the Commodity Broker. The Commodity Exchange Act requires an approved derivatives clearing organization to segregate all funds and other property received from a clearing member’s customers in connection with U.S. futures and options contracts from any funds held at the clearing organization to support the clearing member’s proprietary trading. Nevertheless, customer funds held at a clearing organization in connection with any futures or options contracts may be held in a commingled omnibus account, which may not identify the name of the clearing member’s individual customers. With respect to futures and options contracts, a clearing organization may use assets of a non-defaulting customer held in an omnibus account at the clearing organization to satisfy payment obligations of a defaulting customer of the clearing member to the clearing organization. In the event of a default of the clearing FCM’s other clients or the clearing FCM’s failure to extend its own funds in connection with any such default, a customer may not be able to recover the full amount of assets deposited by the clearing FCM with the clearing organization on the customer’s behalf. In addition, the protections afforded to cleared swaps customer collateral do not guarantee the full return of such collateral in the event of a FCM’s bankruptcy. In the event of a bankruptcy or insolvency of any exchange or a clearing organization, the Fund could experience a loss of the funds deposited through the Commodity Broker as margin with the exchange or clearing organization, a loss of any unrealized profits on its open positions on the exchange, and the loss of unrealized profits on its closed positions on the exchange. In the event of a bankruptcy or insolvency of any exchange or a clearing organization, the Fund could experience a loss of the funds deposited through the Commodity Broker as margin with the exchange or clearing organization, a loss of any unrealized profits on its open positions on the exchange, and the loss of unrealized profits on its closed positions on the exchange. The Fund’s Performance Could Be Adversely Affected if the Commodity Broker Reduces its Internal Risk Limits for the Fund. The CFTC requires FCMs, like the Commodity Broker, to implement and evaluate from time to time risk-based limits on futures position and order sizes. The CFTC requires FCMs, like the Commodity Broker, to implement and evaluate from time-to-time risk-based limits on futures position and order sizes. Under this regime, the Commodity Broker could determine to reduce its internal risk limits on the size of 15 futures positions it will trade or clear for the Fund. Under this regime, the Commodity Broker could determine to reduce its internal risk limits on the size of futures positions it will trade or clear for the Fund. Such a development would reduce the Fund’s capacity to transact in futures contracts. In this scenario, the Fund could seek to enter into clearing relationships with one or more other clearing brokers with the goal of increasing its overall capacity to trade and clear futures contracts. The introduction of one or more additional clearing broker relationships would be likely to increase the Fund’s trading costs and could make its overall trading less efficient or more prone to error. These consequences would be likely to detract from the Fund’s performance. Failure of a Swap Dealer with Which the Fund Trades Swaps May Adversely Affect the Fund. A swap dealer that is registered with the CFTC is required to segregate from its own assets, and for the sole benefit of its customers, all assets it holds in respect of each swap agreement, including an amount equal to the net unrealized gain on all open cleared swaps. Cleared swaps are marked to market on a daily basis, with variations in value credited or charged to the customer’s account, and any funds received in connection with profits on a swap position belonging to the customer must be treated as the property of the customer and maintained by a swap dealer in a cleared swaps customer account. A swap dealer is also required to deposit its own funds into its cleared swaps customer accounts to the extent necessary to ensure that such accounts do not become under-segregated and that the excess funds of one customer held in the cleared swaps customer account may not be used to meet the margin requirements of another customer. In the event of a swap dealer’s insolvency or bankruptcy, the customer funds held in the swap dealer’s cleared swaps customer accounts, assuming such funds were properly segregated, should be insulated as an identifiable separate pool of assets and, as such, should not be available for distribution to the swap dealer’s general creditors. Under these circumstances, each customer with assets on deposit in the swap dealer’s cleared swaps customer account would receive its pro rata share of those assets. As long as the swap dealer is collecting margin payments from its customers, properly segregating such customer margin payments or advancing its own funds in accordance with CFTC regulations, each customer should receive all of its assets from the cleared swaps customer account. To the extent that any such account may be under-margined, however, the deficiency would be shared on a pro rata basis by each customer holding assets in such account. In addition, and with respect to uncleared swaps, the Fund remains subject to credit risk with respect to the amount it expects to receive from its swap counterparties. In the event of a swap dealer’s insolvency or bankruptcy, therefore, the Fund is subject to the risk that it will only recover a portion of the funds that it had on deposit with the dealer. Regulatory Changes or Actions May Alter the Operations and Profitability of the Fund. Governmental and regulatory changes or actions may have unexpected or adverse consequences on particular markets, transactions, or investments, which may adversely impact the Fund and impair how it is managed. Policy and legislative changes in the United States and in other countries affect many aspects of financial regulation, and may in some instances contribute to decreased liquidity, increased costs and increased volatility in the financial markets. The impact of any such changes on the markets, and the practical implications for market participants, likely would not be fully known for some time. The Fund and the Managing Owner Are Subject to Extensive Legal and Regulatory Requirements. The Fund and the Managing Owner Are Subject to Extensive Legal and Regulatory Requirements. The Fund is subject to a comprehensive scheme of regulation under the federal commodity futures trading and securities laws, as well as futures market rules and the rules and listing standards for its Shares. The Fund and the Managing Owner could each be subject to sanctions for a failure to comply with those requirements, which could adversely affect the Fund’s financial performance and its ability to pursue its investment objective. In addition, the SEC, CFTC, and exchanges are empowered to intervene in their respective markets in response to extreme market conditions. Any such interventions could adversely affect the Fund’s ability to pursue its investment objective and could lead to losses for the Fund and its Shareholders. In addition, the Fund is subject to significant disclosure, internal control, governance, and financial reporting requirements because the Shares are publicly traded. For example, the Fund is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal controls over financial reporting. Under this requirement, the Fund must adopt, implement, and maintain an internal control system designed to provide reasonable assurance to its management regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published financial statements. The Fund is also required to adopt, implement, and maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure information required to be disclosed by the Fund in reports that it files or submits to the SEC is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified by the SEC. There is a risk that the Fund’s internal controls over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures could fail to work properly or otherwise fail to satisfy SEC requirements. Such a failure could result in the reporting or disclosure of incorrect information or a failure to report information on a timely basis. Such a failure could be to the disadvantage of Shareholders and could expose the Fund to penalties or otherwise adversely affect the Fund’s status under the federal securities laws and SEC regulations. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. All internal control systems, no matter how well designed, have inherent limitations. Therefore, even those systems determined to be effective may provide only reasonable assurance with respect to financial statement preparation and presentation and other disclosure matters. 16 Tax Risks Shareholders Will Be Subject to Taxation on Their Allocable Share of the Fund’s Taxable Income, Whether or Not They Receive Cash Distributions. TAX RISKS Shareholders Will Be Subject to Taxation on Their Allocable Share of the Fund’s Taxable Income, Whether or Not They Receive Cash Distributions. Shareholders will be subject to U.S. federal income taxation and, in some cases, state, local, or foreign income taxation on their allocable share of the Fund’s taxable income, whether or not they receive cash distributions from the Fund. Shareholders may not receive cash distributions equal to their share of the Fund’s taxable income or even the tax liability that results from such income. Items of Income, Gain, Loss and Deduction with Respect to Shares Could Be Reallocated if the Internal Revenue Service Does Not Accept the Assumptions or Conventions Used by the Fund in Allocating Such Items. 16 Items of Income, Gain, Loss and Deduction with Respect to Shares Could Be Reallocated if the IRS Does Not Accept the Assumptions or Conventions Used by the Fund in Allocating Such Items. U.S. federal income tax rules applicable to partnerships are complex and often difficult to apply to publicly traded partnerships. The Fund will apply certain assumptions and conventions in an attempt to comply with applicable rules and to report items of income, gain, loss and deduction to Shareholders in a manner that reflects the Shareholders’ beneficial interest in such tax items, but these assumptions and conventions may not be in compliance with all aspects of the applicable tax requirements. It is possible that the United States Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) will successfully assert that the conventions and assumptions used by the Fund do not satisfy the technical requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), and/or the Federal Tax Regulations codified under 26 C.F.R., referred to herein as the Treasury Regulations, and could require that items of income, gain, loss and deduction be adjusted or reallocated in a manner that adversely affects one or more Shareholders. The Fund is a partnership, which is generally not subject to U.S. federal income taxes. Rather, the partnership’s taxable income flows through to the owners, who are responsible for paying the applicable income taxes on the income allocated to them. The Fund is subject to partnership audit rules in Subchapter C of Chapter 63 of the Code (the “Centralized Partnership Audit Regime”). Under the Centralized Partnership Audit Regime, any IRS audit of the Fund would be conducted at the Fund level, and if the IRS determines an adjustment, the default rule is that the Fund would pay an “imputed underpayment” including interest and penalties, if applicable. The Fund may instead elect to make a “push-out” election, in which case the Shareholders for the year that is under audit would be required to take into account the adjustments on their own personal income tax returns. The Fund may instead elect to make a “push-out” election, in which case the shareholders for the year that is under audit would be required to take into account the adjustments on their own personal income tax returns. No Deduction for Qualified Publicly Traded Partnership Income. For taxable years beginning before January 1, 2026, there is a 20% deduction for “qualified publicly traded partnership income” within the meaning of Section 199A(e)(4) of the Code. In general, “qualified publicly traded partnership income” for this purpose is an item of income, gain, deduction or loss that is effectively connected with a United States trade or business and includable in determining taxable income for the year, but does not include certain investment income. It is currently not expected that the Fund’s income will be eligible for such deduction because as discussed below, although the matter is not free from doubt, the Fund believes that the activities directly conducted by the Fund will not result in the Fund being engaged in a trade or business within the United States. Potential investors should consult their tax advisors regarding the availability of such deduction for their allocable share of the Fund’s items of income, gain, deduction and loss. Regulated Investment Company Investors Will Be Treated as Owning a Proportionate Share of the Fund’s Assets and Will Take into Account Its Allocable Share of the Fund’s Items of Income, Gain, Loss and Deduction. The Fund does not believe that it will be classified as a qualified publicly traded partnership within the meaning of Section 851(h) of the Code. Accordingly, a regulated investment company within the meaning of Subchapter M of the Code (a “RIC”) that invests in Shares will be treated as owning a proportionate share of the Fund’s assets and will take into account its allocable share of the Fund’s items of income, gain, loss, and deduction when testing the various compliance requirements specifically applicable to RICs. RIC investors face a risk that future Treasury Regulations will recharacterize foreign currency gains received by them as nonqualifying income and be retroactive in application. Notwithstanding the above, the Fund anticipates that income recognized by a RIC in respect of their investment in the Fund should be treated as qualifying income for purposes of Section 851(b)(2) of the Code. A prospective RIC investor is encouraged to consult a tax advisor regarding the treatment of its investment in Shares under the current tax rules. PROSPECTIVE INVESTORS ARE STRONGLY URGED TO CONSULT THEIR OWN TAX ADVISORS AND COUNSEL WITH RESPECT TO THE POSSIBLE TAX CONSEQUENCES TO THEM OF AN INVESTMENT IN THE SHARES; SUCH TAX CONSEQUENCES MAY DIFFER WITH RESPECT TO DIFFERENT INVESTORS. 17 General Risks An Insolvency Resulting from Another Series of the Trust or the Trust Itself May Have a Material Adverse Effect on the Fund. GENERAL RISKS An Insolvency Resulting from Another Series of the Trust or the Trust Itself May Have a Material Adverse Effect on the Fund. The Fund is a series of a Delaware statutory trust. Pursuant to Delaware law, the organization of the Trust provides that the assets and liabilities of the Fund are separate from the assets and liabilities of the other series of the Trust, as well as the larger Trust itself. Though such organization may, under state law, protect the assets of the Fund in an insolvency action brought by the creditors of the other series of the Trust, this may be insufficient to protect the assets of the Fund from such creditors in an insolvency action in federal court, or in a court in a foreign jurisdiction. Accordingly, an insolvency resulting from the other series of the Trust or the Trust itself may have a material adverse effect on the Fund. Disruptions in the Ability to Create and Redeem Creation Units May Adversely Affect Investors. It is generally expected that the public trading price per Share will track the NAV per Share closely over time. The relationship between the public trading price per Share and the NAV per Share depends, to a considerable degree, on the ability of Authorized Participants or their clients or customers to purchase and redeem Creation Units in the ordinary course. If the process for creating or redeeming Shares is impaired for any reason, Authorized Participants and their clients or customers may not be able to purchase and redeem Creation Units or, even if possible, may choose not to do so. If the process for creating or 17 redeeming Shares is impaired for any reason, Authorized Participants and their clients or customers may not be able to purchase and redeem Creation Units or, even if possible, may choose not to do so. The inability to purchase and redeem Creation Units, or the partial impairment of the ability to purchase and redeem Creation Units, could result in Shares trading at a premium or discount to the NAV of the Fund. Such a premium or discount could be significant, depending upon the nature or duration of the impairment. In addition, the Fund may, in its discretion, suspend the creation of Creation Units. In addition, the Fund may, in its discretion, suspend the creation of Creation Units. Suspension of creations may adversely affect how the Shares are traded and could cause Shares to trade at a premium or discount to the NAV of the Fund, perhaps to a significant degree. The Shares Could Decrease in Value if Unanticipated Operational or Trading Problems Arise. The mechanisms and procedures governing the creation, redemption and offering of the Shares have been developed specifically for the Fund. Consequently, there may be unanticipated problems with respect to the mechanics of the operations of the Fund and the trading of the Shares that could have a material adverse effect on an investment in the Shares. To the extent that unanticipated operational or trading problems arise, the Managing Owner’s past experience and qualifications may not be suitable for solving those problems. Historical Performance of the Fund and the Index Is Not Indicative of Future Performance. Past performance of the Fund or the Index is not necessarily indicative of future results. Therefore, past performance of the Fund or the Index should not be relied upon in deciding whether to buy Shares of the Fund. Fees and Expenses May Deplete the Fund’s Assets if the Fund’s Investment Performance Is Not Favorable. Fees and Expenses May Deplete the Fund’s Assets if the Fund’s Investment Performance Is Not Favorable. The Fund pays fees and expenses regardless of its investment performance. Such fees and expenses include asset-based fees of 0.75% per annum. Additional charges include brokerage fees of approximately 0.03% per annum in the aggregate and selling commissions. Selling commissions are not included in the Fund’s breakeven calculation. The sum of the Fund’s Treasury Income, Money Market Income and/or T-Bill ETF Income may not exceed its fees and expenses. If such income does not exceed its fees and expenses, in order to break even, the Fund’s futures trading activity will need to have a favorable performance that exceeds the difference between the sum of the Fund’s Treasury Income, Money Market Income and/or T-Bill ETF Income and its fees and expenses. If the Fund’s futures trading performance is not sufficiently favorable, the Fund’s expenses could deplete its assets over time. In such a scenario, the value of your Shares will decrease. There May Be Circumstances that Could Prevent the Fund from Being Operated in a Manner Consistent with its Investment Objective. There May Be Circumstances That Could Prevent the Fund from Being Operated in a Manner Consistent With its Investment Objective. There may be circumstances outside the control of the Managing Owner and/or the Fund that make it, for all practical purposes, impossible to re-position the Fund and/or to process a purchase or redemption order. Examples of such circumstances include: natural disasters; public service disruptions or utility problems such as those caused by fires, floods, extreme weather conditions, and power outages resulting in telephone, telecopy, and computer failures; market conditions or activities causing trading halts; systems failures involving computer or other information systems affecting the aforementioned parties, as well as DTC, or any other participant in the purchase process, and similar extraordinary events. While the Managing Owner has established and implemented a disaster recovery plan, circumstances such as those identified above may prevent the Fund from being operated in a manner consistent with its investment objective. Additionally, natural or environmental disasters, such as earthquakes, fires, floods, hurricanes, tsunamis and other severe weather-related phenomena generally, and widespread disease, including pandemics and epidemics, have been and may be highly 18 disruptive to economies and markets, adversely impacting individual companies, sectors, industries, markets, currencies, interest and inflation rates, credit ratings, investor sentiment, and other factors affecting the value of the Fund’s investments. Additionally, natural or environmental disasters, such as earthquakes, fires, floods, hurricanes, tsunamis and other severe weather-related phenomena generally, and widespread disease, including pandemics and epidemics, have been and may be highly disruptive to economies and markets, adversely impacting individual companies, sectors, industries, markets, currencies, interest and inflation rates, credit ratings, investor sentiment, and other factors affecting the value of the Fund’s investments. Given the increasing interdependence among global economies and markets, conditions in one country, market, or region are increasingly likely to adversely affect markets, issuers, and/or foreign exchange rates in other countries, including the U.S. Any such events could have a significant adverse impact on the value of the Fund’s investments and could result in increased premiums or discounts to the Fund’s NAV. Additionally, the Fund rebalances its portfolio in accordance with the Index, and, therefore, any changes to the Index’s rebalance schedule will result in corresponding changes to the Fund’s rebalance schedule. Redemption Orders for Creation Units May Be Subject to Postponement, Suspension or Rejection Under Certain Circumstances. The Managing Owner may, in its discretion, suspend the right of redemption or postpone the redemption order settlement date with respect to Creation Units for (1) any period during which an emergency exists as a result of which the redemption distribution is not reasonably practicable, or (2) such other period as the Managing Owner determines to be necessary for the protection of the Shareholders. In addition, the Fund will reject a redemption order if the order is not in proper form as described in the Participant Agreement with the Authorized Participant, or if the fulfillment of the order, in the opinion of the Fund’s counsel, might be unlawful. In addition, the Fund will reject a redemption order if the order is not in proper form as described in the participant agreement with the Authorized Participant, or if the fulfillment of the order, in the opinion of the Fund’s counsel, might be unlawful. Any such postponement, suspension or rejection could adversely affect a redeeming Authorized Participant. For example, the resulting delay may adversely affect the value of the Authorized Participant’s redemption proceeds if the NAV of the Fund declines during the period of delay. For example, the resulting 18 delay may adversely affect the value of the Authorized Participant’s redemption proceeds if the NAV of the Fund declines during the period of delay. The Fund disclaims any liability for any loss or damage that may result from any such suspension or postponement. Shareholders Do Not Have the Protections Associated with Ownership of Shares in an Investment Company Registered Under the Investment Company Act of 1940. The Fund is not registered as an investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Consequently, Shareholders do not have the legal and regulatory protections provided to the investors in investment companies that are registered as such. Shareholders Do Not Have the Rights Enjoyed by Investors in Certain Other Vehicles. The Shares have none of the statutory rights normally associated with the ownership of shares of a corporation. However, under Delaware law, a beneficial owner of a business trust (such as a Shareholder) may, under certain circumstances, institute legal action on behalf of himself and all other similarly situated beneficial owners to recover damages from a third party where a managing owner has failed or refused to institute legal action on behalf of himself and all other similarly situated beneficial owners to recover damages from a managing owner for violations of fiduciary duties, or on behalf of a business trust to recover damages from a third party where a managing owner has failed or refused to institute proceedings to recover such damages. The Shares have limited voting and distribution rights (for example, Shareholders do not have the right to elect directors and the Fund is not required to pay regular distributions, although the Fund may pay distributions in the discretion of the Managing Owner). Various Actual and Potential Conflicts of Interest May Be Detrimental to Shareholders. The Fund is subject to actual and potential conflicts of interest involving the Managing Owner or any of its affiliates, the Commodity Broker, including its principals and its affiliates, the Index Sponsor and the Distributor. The Managing Owner and its principals, all of whom are engaged in other investment activities, are not required to devote substantially all of their time to the business of the Fund, which also presents the potential for numerous conflicts of interest with the Fund. The Managing Owner and its principals and affiliates are engaged in a broad array of asset management and financial services activities and may engage in activities during the ordinary course of business that cause their interests or those of their other clients to conflict with those of the Fund and its Shareholders. As a result of these and other relationships, parties involved with the Fund have a financial incentive to act in a manner other than in the best interests of the Fund and the Shareholders. As a result of these and other relationships, parties involved with the Fund have a financial incentive to act in a manner other than in the best interests of the Fund and the Shareholders. For example, by investing in affiliated money market mutual funds and/or T-Bill ETFs for margin and/or cash management purposes, the Managing Owner may select affiliated money market mutual funds and/or T-Bill ETFs that may pay dividends that are lower than non-affiliated money market mutual funds and/or T-Bill ETFs. In addition, the Managing Owner would have a conflict of interest if it sought to redeem the Fund’s interest in an affiliated money market mutual fund or T-Bill ETF in circumstances when such a redemption would be unfavorable for the affiliated fund. The Managing Owner has not established any formal procedure to resolve conflicts of interest. Consequently, investors are dependent on the good faith of the respective parties subject to such conflicts to resolve them equitably. Although the Managing Owner attempts to monitor these conflicts, it is extremely difficult, if not impossible, for the Managing Owner to ensure that these conflicts do not, in fact, result in adverse consequences to the Fund and the Shareholders. The Fund may be subject to certain conflicts with respect to the Commodity Broker, including, but not limited to, conflicts that result from receiving greater amounts of compensation from other clients, or purchasing opposite or competing positions on behalf of third party accounts traded through the Commodity Broker. 19 Because the Managing Owner and the Distributor are affiliates, the Managing Owner has a disincentive to replace the Distributor. Because the Managing Owner and the Distributor are affiliates, the Managing Owner has a disincentive to replace the Distributor. Furthermore, the Managing Owner did not conduct an arm’s length negotiation when it retained the Distributor. Lack of Independent Advisers Representing Investors. The Managing Owner has consulted with counsel, accountants and other advisers regarding the operation of the Fund. No counsel has been appointed to represent you in connection with the Fund’s continuous offering of Shares. Accordingly, you should consult your own legal, tax and financial advisers about whether you should invest in the Fund. Possibility of Termination of the Fund May Adversely Affect Your Portfolio. It is ultimately within the discretion of the Managing Owner whether it will continue to operate and advise the Fund. The Managing Owner may withdraw from the Fund upon 120 days’ prior written notice to all Shareholders and the Trustee, which would cause the Fund to terminate unless a substitute managing owner was obtained. Shareholders owning 50% or more of the Shares have the power to terminate the Fund. If it is so exercised, investors who may wish to continue to invest in a vehicle that tracks the Fund’s Index will have to find another vehicle, and may not be able to find another vehicle that offers the same features as the Fund. See “Description of the Shares; Certain Material Terms of the Trust Agreement – Termination Events” in the Fund’s Prospectus for a summary of termination events. Such detrimental developments could cause you to liquidate your investments and upset the overall maturity and timing of your investment portfolio. Such detrimental developments could cause you to liquidate your investments and upset the overall 19 maturity and timing of your investment portfolio. In addition, Shareholders could receive less from the sale of the Fund’s assets in the event of its liquidation and termination than amounts that could be realized from sales of those assets other than in the case of a liquidation and termination. If the registrations with the CFTC or memberships in the NFA of the Managing Owner or the Commodity Broker were revoked or suspended, such entity would no longer be able to provide services to the Fund. Competing Claims Over Ownership of Intellectual Property Rights Related to the Fund Could Adversely Affect the Fund and an Investment in the Shares. While the Managing Owner believes that all intellectual property rights needed to operate the Fund in the manner described in the Fund’s Prospectus are either owned by or licensed to the Managing Owner or have been obtained, third parties may allege or assert ownership of intellectual property rights which may be related to the design, structure and operations of the Fund. To the extent any claims of such ownership are brought or any proceedings are instituted to assert such claims, the issuance of any restraining orders or injunctions, the negotiation, litigation or settlement of such claims, or the ultimate disposition of such claims in a court of law may adversely affect the Fund and an investment in the Shares. For example, such actions could result in expenses or damages payable by the Fund, suspension of activities or the termination of the Fund. The Value of the Shares Will Be Adversely Affected if the Fund Is Required to Indemnify the Trustee or the Managing Owner. Under the Trust Agreement, the Trustee and the Managing Owner have the right to be indemnified for any liability or expense they incur, except for any expenses resulting from gross negligence or willful misconduct. That means the Managing Owner may require the assets of the Fund to be sold in order to cover losses or liability suffered by it or by the Trustee. Any sale of that kind would reduce the NAV of the Fund and, consequently, the value of the Shares. Although the Shares Are Limited Liability Investments, Certain Circumstances Such as Bankruptcy of the Fund or Indemnification of the Fund by the Shareholders Will Increase a Shareholder’s Liability. The Shares are limited liability investments; investors may not lose more than the amount that they invest including any appreciation in their investments. However, Shareholders could be required, as a matter of bankruptcy law, to return to the estate of the Fund any distribution they received at a time when the Fund was in fact insolvent or in violation of the Trust Agreement. In addition, Shareholders agree in the Trust Agreement that they will indemnify the Fund for any harm suffered by it as a result of: •Shareholders’ actions unrelated to the business of the Fund, or •taxes imposed on the Shares by the states or municipalities in which such investors reside. In addition, Shareholders agree in the Trust Agreement that they will indemnify the Fund for any harm suffered by it as a result of: • Shareholders’ actions unrelated to the business of the Fund, or • taxes imposed on the Shares by the states or municipalities in which such investors reside. The Fund May Lose Money on Its Holdings of Money Market Mutual Funds. The Fund may invest in government money market funds that have chosen to not rely on the ability to impose fees on Shareholder redemptions, or liquidity fees, or temporarily to suspend redemption privileges, or gates, if the government money market fund’s weekly liquid assets fall below a certain threshold. The Fund may invest in government money market funds that have chosen to not rely on the ability to impose fees on shareholder redemptions, or liquidity fees, or temporarily to suspend redemption privileges, or gates, if the government money market fund’s weekly liquid assets fall below a certain threshold. Although such government money market funds seek to preserve the value of an investment at $1.00 per share, there is no guarantee that they will be able to do so. As a result, the Fund may lose money by investing in a government money market fund. An investment in a government money market fund is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) or any other government agency. The share price of a government money market fund can fall below the $1.00 share price. The Fund cannot rely on or expect a government money market fund’s adviser or its affiliates to enter into support agreements or take other actions to maintain the government money market fund’s $1.00 share price. 20 The credit quality of a government money market fund’s holdings can change rapidly in certain markets, and the default of a single holding could have an adverse impact on the government money market fund’s share price. The credit quality of a government money market fund’s holdings can change rapidly in certain markets, and the default of a single holding could have an adverse impact on the government money market fund’s share price. Due to fluctuations in interest rates, the market value of securities held by a government money market fund may vary. A government money market fund’s share price can also be negatively affected during periods of high redemption pressures and/or illiquid markets. Due to the Increased Use of Technologies, Intentional and Unintentional Cyber Attacks Pose Operational and Information Security Risks. With the increased use of technologies such as the Internet and the dependence on computer systems to perform necessary business functions, the Fund is susceptible to operational and information security risks. With the increased use of technologies such as the Internet and the dependence on computer systems to perform necessary business functions, the Fund is susceptible to operational and information security risks. In general, cyber incidents can result from deliberate attacks or unintentional events. Cyber attacks include, but are not limited to gaining unauthorized access to digital systems for purposes of misappropriating assets or sensitive information, corrupting data, or causing operational disruption. Cyber attacks may also be carried out in a manner that does not require gaining unauthorized access, such as causing denial-of-service attacks on websites. Cyber security failures or breaches of the Fund’s third party service providers (including, but not limited to, the Index Sponsor, the Administrator and the Transfer Agent) or money market mutual funds and T-Bill ETFs in which the Fund invests, have the ability to cause disruptions and impact business operations, potentially resulting in financial losses, the inability of Shareholders or Authorized Participants to transact business in Shares and Creation Units respectively, violations of applicable privacy and other laws, regulatory fines, penalties, reputational damage, reimbursement or other compensation costs, and/or additional compliance costs. Cyber security failures or breaches of the Fund’s third party service providers (including, but not limited to, the Index Sponsor, the Administrator and the Transfer Agent) or the money market mutual funds and T-Bill ETFs in which the Fund invests, have the ability to cause disruptions and impact business operations, potentially resulting in financial losses, the inability of Shareholders or Authorized Participants to transact business in Shares and Creation Units respectively, violations of applicable privacy and other laws, regulatory fines, penalties, reputational damage, reimbursement or other compensation costs, and/or additional compliance costs. In addition, substantial costs may be incurred in order to prevent any cyber incidents in the future. In addition, 20 substantial costs may be incurred in order to prevent any cyber incidents in the future. The Fund and its Shareholders could be negatively impacted as a result. While the Managing Owner has established business continuity plans and systems reasonably designed to detect and prevent such cyber attacks from being effective, there are inherent limitations in such plans and systems. While the Managing Owner has established business continuity plans and systems reasonably designed to detect and prevent such cyber attacks from being effective, there are inherent limitations in such plans and systems. For instance, it is possible that certain existing risks have not been identified or that new risks will emerge before countervailing measures can be implemented. Furthermore, the Fund cannot control, or even necessarily influence, the cyber security plans and systems put in place by the Fund’s third party service providers. Since the Fund is dependent upon third party service providers (including the Managing Owner) for substantially all of its operational needs, the Fund is subject to the risk that a cyber attack on a service provider will materially impair its normal operations even if the Fund itself is not subject to such an attack. A cyber security incident that affects any of the Fund’s service providers could result in loss or unintended disclosure of information or loss or theft of the Fund’s assets and could adversely impact the ability of the Fund’s service providers to conduct their business, including their business on behalf of the Fund. In addition, a service provider that has experienced a cyber security incident may divert resources normally devoted to servicing the Fund to addressing the incident, which would be likely to have an adverse effect on the Fund’s operations. Cyber attacks may also cause disruptions to the futures exchanges and clearinghouses through which the Fund invests in futures contracts and to the exchanges on which the Fund buys and sells shares of T-Bill ETFs, which could result in disruptions to the Fund’s ability to pursue its investment objective, resulting in financial losses to the Fund and Shareholders. ITEM 1B. ITEM 1B. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS. UNRESOLVED STAFF COMMENTS None. None. ITEM 1C. CYBERSECURITY. Cyber threats are considered one of the most significant risks facing financial institutions. Because the Fund has no directors, principal officers or employees, the Managing Owner is responsible for managing cybersecurity risks to the Fund. To mitigate risk from cyber threats, Invesco Ltd. (“Invesco”), the Managing Owner’s parent company, has a designated Global Chief Security Officer (GCSO) who leads the global security department that is responsible for identifying, assessing, and managing cybersecurity threats across the Invesco organization. The GCSO has over 28 years of experience in the public and private sectors, specializing in security, investigations, and incident response. The global security department oversees the following groups across Invesco: Information Security, Global Privacy, Business Continuity & Crisis Management, Resilience, Corporate Security, Business Security Officers and Strategy and Projects & Governance. This converged security structure supports a more comprehensive, holistic approach to keeping our and Invesco clients, employees, and critical assets safe, upholding their privacy rights, while enabling a secure and resilient business. Invesco’s information security program is led by its Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) who reports directly to the GCSO and has over 25 years of experience, specializing in information security and risk management. Our manager’s information security program is designed to oversee all aspects of information security risk and seeks to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of information assets, including the implementation of controls aligned with industry guidelines and applicable statutes and regulations to identify threats, detect attacks and protect our information assets. The program includes the following: 21 •Proactive assessments of technical infrastructure and security resilience are performed on a regular basis which include penetration testing, offensive testing and maturity assessments. •Conducting diligence on third-party service providers regarding cybersecurity risks prior to on-boarding, periodic assessment of cybersecurity risks for third-party service providers and continuous monitoring for new third-party cybersecurity incidents. •An incident response program that includes periodic testing and is designed to restore business operations as quickly and as orderly as possible in the event of a cybersecurity incident at Invesco or third-party incident. •Mandatory annual employee security awareness training, which focuses on cyber threats and security in general. •Regular cyber phishing tests throughout the year to measure and raise employee awareness against cyber phishing threats. Important to these programs is Invesco’s investment in threat-intelligence, its active engagement in industry and government security-related forums, and its utilization of external experts to challenge its program maturity, assess its controls and routinely test its capabilities. Invesco’s Board of Directors oversees cybersecurity risk across the entire organization and receives updates at a minimum of twice a year regarding cybersecurity, including risks and protections. The Global Operational Risk Management Committee, one of Invesco’s risk management committees, provides executive-level oversight and monitoring of the end-to-end programs dedicated to managing information security and cyber related risk. The members of this committee include Invesco’s Chief Administrative Officer, Chief Risk & Audit Officer, General Counsel, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Human Resources Officer, Global Head of Compliance, and Global Operational Risk Owners which includes the GCSO. The committee reports to Invesco’s Enterprise Risk Management Committee which provides updates to the Invesco Board of Directors to facilitate their oversight. Although risks from cyber threats have not materially affected the Fund’s business strategy, results of operations or financial condition as of December 31, 2023, Invesco continues to closely monitor cyber risk. In addition, security controls, no matter how well designed or implemented, may only mitigate and not fully eliminate risks.
