E.3 Terms and conditions Offers and sales of the Certificates to an investor
of the offer by an Authorised Participant will be made, in
accordance with any terms and other arrangements
in place between such Authorised Participant
and such investor including as to price, allocations
and settlement arrangements. Neither the Issuer
nor the Arranger will be a party to any such
arrangements with investors (except where the
Arranger itself offers Certificates to an investor)
and, accordingly, this Base Prospectus and any
Final Terms may not contain such information
and, in such case, an investor must obtain such
information from the relevant Authorised Participant
or the Arranger, as applicable. Investors should
however note the following:
Amount of the offer: The number of Certificates
subject to the offer will be determined on the
basis of the demand for the Certificates and
prevailing market conditions and be published,
provided that the aggregate number of all Certificates
of any and all Series outstanding from time

E.4 Material interests Source UK Services Limited which is acting as
in the offer Portfolio Adviser and Arranger in respect of
the Programme has a relationship with certain
Authorised Participants under the Programme
and may have a relationship with future Authorised
Participants appointed to the Programme. Such
relationships may therefore potentially give
rise to conflicts of interest which are adverse
to the interests of the Certificateholders.
The Authorised Participants and/or their affiliates
actively trade in commodities markets. These
activities could give rise to conflicts of interest
which are adverse to the interests of the Certificateholders
and could adversely affect the market value
of the Certificates.
E.7 Expenses chargeable In connection with the redemption of any Certificate
to Investors at the option of a Certificateholder, a redemption
notice fee of up to US$500.00 will be payable
by the relevant Certificateholder.
The Cash Amount payable or the Delivery Amount
deliverable, as applicable, in respect of any
redemption is calculated net of all expenses,
fees and charges incurred or to be incurred
in connection therewith.
From time to time, in respect of Certificates,
a portion of the Underlying Precious Metal equal
to the aggregate of the daily amounts by which
the Per Certificate Entitlement to such Underlying
Precious Metal has been reduced by the Reduction
Percentage over the relevant period (the "Combined
Fees") will be withdrawn from the relevant Secured
Custody Accounts and sold on behalf of the Issuer
and the proceeds thereof, in the normal course,
paid to the Portfolio Adviser in consideration
for its services as Portfolio Adviser and also
its agreement to pay the fees and expenses due
to the other service providers in connection
with the Programme (but not including any indemnities
granted in favour of the other service providers).

D.2 Key risks specific The Issuer has been established as a special
to the Issuer purpose vehicle for the purpose of establishing
the Programme and issuing multiple series of
asset backed securities, holding the Underlying
Precious Metal for each Series, through the
Custodian, and entering into, and performing
its obligations under, agreements related to
the foregoing. The Issuer has, and will have,
no assets other than its issued and paid-up
share capital, such fees (as agreed) payable
to it in connection with the issue of Certificates
or entry into other obligations from time to
time and any Secured Property and any other
assets on which Certificates or other obligations
are secured.
The Issuer is an Irish company. Under Irish
law, upon an insolvency of an Irish company,
when applying the proceeds of assets subject
to fixed security which may have been realised
in the course of a liquidation or receivership,
the claims of a limited category of preferential
creditors will take priority over the claims
of creditors holding the relevant fixed security.

of the offer by an Authorised Participant will be made, in
accordance with any terms and other arrangements
in place between such Authorised Participant
and such investor including as to price, allocations
and settlement arrangements. Neither the Issuer
nor the Arranger will be a party to any such
arrangements with investors (except where the
Arranger itself offers Certificates to an investor)
and, accordingly, this Base Prospectus and any
Final Terms may not contain such information
and, in such case, an investor must obtain such
information from the relevant Authorised Participant
or the Arranger, as applicable. Investors should
however note the following:
Amount of the offer: The number of Certificates
subject to the offer will be determined on the
basis of the demand for the Certificates and
prevailing market conditions and be published,
provided that the aggregate number of all Certificates
of any and all Series outstanding from time
to time shall not in any event exceed 1,000,000,000
(the "Programme Limit").

any applicable fees and commissions of the person
offering such Certificate.

an investor at any time between the Issue Date
of the first Tranche of a Series of Certificates
and the Maturity Date of such Series.
Issue Date: 14/03/2018
E.4 Material interests Source UK Services Limited which is acting as
in the offer Portfolio Adviser and Arranger in respect of
the Programme has a relationship with certain
Authorised Participants under the Programme
and may have a relationship with future Authorised
Participants appointed to the Programme. Such
relationships may therefore potentially give
rise to conflicts of interest which are adverse
to the interests of the Certificateholders.
The Authorised Participants and/or their affiliates
actively trade in commodities markets. These
activities could give rise to conflicts of interest
which are adverse to the interests of the Certificateholders
and could adversely affect the market value
of the Certificates.
E.7 Expenses chargeable In connection with the redemption of any Certificate
to Investors at the option of a Certificateholder, a redemption
notice fee of up to US$500.00 will be payable
by the relevant Certificateholder.
The Cash Amount payable or the Delivery Amount
deliverable, as applicable, in respect of any
redemption is calculated net of all expenses,
fees and charges incurred or to be incurred
in connection therewith.
From time to time, in respect of Certificates,
a portion of the Underlying Precious Metal equal
to the aggregate of the daily amounts by which
the Per Certificate Entitlement to such Underlying
Precious Metal has been reduced by the Reduction
Percentage over the relevant period (the "Combined
Fees") will be withdrawn from the relevant Secured
Custody Accounts and sold on behalf of the Issuer
and the proceeds thereof, in the normal course,
paid to the Portfolio Adviser in consideration
for its services as Portfolio Adviser and also
its agreement to pay the fees and expenses due
to the other service providers in connection
with the Programme (but not including any indemnities
granted in favour of the other service providers).
