NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS AGREED as follows:

1. Delivery of Escrow Funds.

(a) The Placement Agent and the Trust shall instruct Subscribers to deliver to Escrow Agent checks made payable to the order of "UMB Bank, as Escrow Agent for wShares Bitcoin Fund," or wire transfer to UMB Bank NA, 928 Grand Blvd, Kansas City, MO 64106, ABA No: 101000695, Account No: 9800006823, Account Name: Trust Clearance for credit to wShares Bitcoin Fund, Account No.160156.1, Attn Lara Stevens, in each case, with the name and address of the individual or entity making payment.  In the event any Subscriber's address is not provided to Escrow Agent by the Subscriber, then the Trust agrees to promptly provide Escrow Agent with such information in writing. The checks or wire transfers shall be deposited into a non-interest-bearing account at UMB Bank entitled "wShares Bitcoin Fund, UMB Bank, as Escrow Agent" (the "Escrow Account"). Subscription funds received from any participating Subscriber will be promptly transmitted to the Escrow Account in compliance with Rule 15c2-4 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

(b) The collected funds deposited into the Escrow Account are referred to as the "Escrow Funds."

(c) The Escrow Agent shall have no duty or responsibility to enforce the collection or demand payment of any funds deposited into the Escrow Account.  If, for any reason, any check deposited into the Escrow Account shall be returned unpaid to the Escrow Agent, the sole duty of the Escrow Agent shall be to return the check to the Subscriber and advise the Trust and the Placement Agent promptly thereof.

2. Release of Escrow Funds.  The Escrow Funds shall be paid by the Escrow Agent in accordance with the following:

(a) In the event that the Trust advises the Escrow Agent in writing that the Offering has been terminated (the "Termination Notice"), then the Escrow Agent shall promptly return the funds paid by each Subscriber to said Subscriber without interest or offset.

(b) Intentionally Omitted.

(c) Provided that the Escrow Agent does not receive the Termination Notice in accordance with Section 2(a) and the Minimum Amount has been deposited into the Escrow Account on or prior to the Termination Date, the Escrow Agent shall, upon receipt of written instructions, in the form of Exhibit A, attached hereto and made a part hereof, or in a form and substance satisfactory to the Escrow Agent, received from the Trust and the Placement Agent, pay the Escrow Funds in accordance with such written instructions, which instructions shall be limited to the payment of the Placement Agent's fee and other offering expenses and the payment of the balance to the Trust (each, a "Closing"). Such payment or payments shall be made by wire transfer within one (1) Business Day of receipt of such written instructions, which must be received by the Escrow Agent no later than 3:00 p.m., New York time, on a Business Day for the Escrow Agent to process such instructions that Business Day.  The Trust and the Placement Agent further agree that there shall be a single Closing under this Agreement limited to four (4) wires.  Any additional wires may be subject to additional fees.

(d) If by 3:00 p.m., New York time, on the Termination Date, the Escrow Agent has not received written instructions from the Trust and the Placement Agent regarding the disbursement of the Escrow Funds or the total amount of the Escrow Funds is less than the Minimum Amount, then the Escrow Agent shall promptly return the Escrow Funds to the Subscribers without interest or offset and close the Escrow Account immediately thereafter.

(e) The Escrow Agent shall not be required to pay any uncollected funds or any funds that are not available for withdrawal.

(f) If the Termination Date or any date that is a deadline under this Agreement for giving the Escrow Agent notice or instructions or for the Escrow Agent to take action is not a Business Day, then such date shall be the Business Day that immediately precedes that date. A "Business Day" is any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or a Bank holiday on which the New York Stock Exchange is scheduled to be open for business.

3. Acceptance by Escrow Agent.  The Escrow Agent hereby accepts and agrees to perform its obligations hereunder, provided that:

(a) Upon execution of this Agreement, the Trust shall execute and deliver to Escrow Agent Exhibit B hereto and the Placement Agent shall execute and deliver to Escrow Agent Exhibit B-1 hereto (together with Exhibit B, each a "Certificate"), for the purpose of (i) establishing the identity of each respective authorized representative(s) of the Trust and the Placement Agent entitled to singly initiate and/or confirm disbursement instructions to Escrow Agent on behalf of each such party and (ii) providing standing wire instructions for each of the Trust and the Placement Agent to be used for disbursements to said party.  The Escrow Agent may act in reliance upon any signature on each Certificate believed by it to be genuine, and may assume that any person who has been designated by the Placement Agent or the Trust to give any written instructions, notice or receipt, or make any statements in connection with the provisions hereof has been duly authorized to do so.  The Escrow Agent shall have no duty to make inquiry as to the genuineness, accuracy or validity of any statements or instructions or any signatures on statements or instructions, including but not limited to, those contained on each Certificate. The Trust and the Placement Agent may update their respective Certificate by executing and delivering to the Escrow Agent an updated Certificate substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B and/or Exhibit B-1.  Until such time as Escrow Agent shall receive an updated Certificate, Escrow Agent shall be fully protected in relying without inquiry on the current Certificate on file with Escrow Agent.

(b) The Escrow Agent may seek confirmation of disbursement instructions by telephone call back to one of the authorized representatives set forth on each Certificate, and the Escrow Agent may rely upon the confirmations of anyone purporting to be the person(s) so designated.   To ensure the accuracy of the instruction it receives, the Escrow Agent may (but in no instance shall be required to) record such call back. If the Escrow Agent is unable to verify the instruction, or is not satisfied in its sole discretion with the verification it receives, it may in its discretion elect not to execute the instruction until all issues have been resolved to its satisfaction. The Trust and the Placement Agent agree that the foregoing procedures constitute commercially reasonable security procedures.

(c) The Escrow Agent may act relative hereto in reliance upon advice of counsel in reference to any matter connected herewith.  The Escrow Agent shall not be liable for any mistake of fact or error of judgment or law, or for any acts or omissions of any kind, unless caused by its willful misconduct or gross negligence.

(d) The Placement Agent and the Trust agree to indemnify and hold the Escrow Agent harmless from and against any and all claims, losses, costs, liabilities, damages, suits, demands, judgments or expenses (including but not limited to reasonable attorney's fees) claimed against or incurred by Escrow Agent arising out of or related, directly or indirectly, to this Escrow Agreement unless caused by the Escrow Agent's gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(e) In the event that the Escrow Agent shall be uncertain as to its duties or rights hereunder, the Escrow Agent shall be entitled to (i) refrain from taking any action other than to keep safely the Escrow Funds until it shall be directed otherwise by a court of competent jurisdiction or by a joint instruction from the Trust and the Placement Agent, or (ii) deliver the Escrow Funds to a court of competent jurisdiction.

(f) The Escrow Agent shall have no duty, responsibility or obligation to interpret or enforce the terms of any agreement other than Escrow Agent's obligations hereunder, and the Escrow Agent shall not be required to make a request that any monies be delivered to the Escrow Account, it being agreed that the sole duties and responsibilities of the Escrow Agent shall be to the extent not prohibited by applicable law (i) to accept checks or other instruments for the payment of money and wire transfers delivered to the Escrow Agent for the Escrow Account and deposit said checks and wire transfers into the non-interest bearing Escrow Account, and (ii) to disburse or refrain from disbursing the Escrow Funds as stated above, provided that the checks received by the Escrow Agent have been collected and are available for withdrawal.

4. Escrow Account Statements and Information. The Escrow Agent agrees to send to the Trust and/or the Placement Agent a copy of the Escrow Account periodic statement, upon request in accordance with the Escrow Agent's regular practices for providing account statements to its non-escrow clients, and to also provide the Trust and/or the Placement Agent, or their designee, upon request other deposit account information, including Escrow Account balances, by telephone or by computer communication, to the extent practicable. The Trust and the Placement Agent agree to complete and sign all forms or agreements reasonably required by the Escrow Agent for that purpose.  The Trust and the Placement Agent each consents to the Escrow Agent's release of such Escrow Account information to any of the individuals designated by the Trust or the Placement Agent, which designation has been signed in accordance with Section 3(a) by any of the persons on the Trust and the Placement Agent's respective Certificate.  Further, the Trust and the Placement Agent have an option to receive e-mail notification of incoming and outgoing wire transfers.  If this e-mail notification service is requested and subsequently approved by the Escrow Agent, the Trust and/or the Placement Agent agrees to provide a valid e-mail address and other information necessary to set-up this service and sign all forms and agreements reasonably required for such service.  The Trust and the Placement Agent each consents to the Escrow Agent's release of wire transfer information to the designated e-mail address(es).  The Escrow Agent shall in no instance be liable for its failure to comply with this section.

5. Resignation of the Escrow Agent.  The Escrow Agent may resign at any time by giving thirty (30) days' prior written notice of such resignation to the Placement Agent and the Trust.  Upon providing such notice, the Escrow Agent shall have no further obligation hereunder except to hold as depository the Escrow Funds that it receives until the end of such thirty (30)-day period.  In such event, the Escrow Agent shall not take any action, other than receiving and depositing Subscribers checks and wire transfers in accordance with this Agreement, until the Trust has designated a banking corporation, trust company, attorney or other person as successor.  Upon receipt of such written designation signed by the Placement Agent and the Trust, the Escrow Agent shall promptly deliver the Escrow Funds to such successor and shall thereafter have no further obligations hereunder.  If such instructions are not received within thirty (30) days following the effective date of such resignation, then the Escrow Agent may (i) deposit the Escrow Funds held by it pursuant to this Agreement with a clerk of a court of competent jurisdiction pending the appointment of a successor; or (ii) return all funds remaining in the Escrow Account to the Subscribers in the Offering, in the same manner as such funds were received (and the Trust and the Placement Agent agree to cooperate with Escrow Agent in providing any information required to facilitate such a return of funds to the Subscribers).  In either case provided for in this section, the Escrow Agent shall be relieved of all further obligations and released from all liability thereafter arising with respect to the Escrow Funds.

6. Termination.  The Trust and the Placement Agent may terminate the appointment of the Escrow Agent hereunder upon written notice specifying the date upon which such termination shall take effect, which date shall be at least thirty (30) days from the date of such notice.  In the event of such termination, the Trust and the Placement Agent shall, within thirty (30) days of such notice, appoint a successor escrow agent and the Escrow Agent shall, upon receipt of written instructions signed by the Trust and the Placement Agent, turn over to such successor escrow agent all of the Escrow Funds; provided, however, that if the Trust and the Placement Agent fail to appoint a successor escrow agent within such thirty (30) day period, such termination notice shall be null and void and the Escrow Agent shall continue to be bound by all of the provisions hereof.  Upon receipt of the Escrow Funds, the successor escrow agent shall become the escrow agent hereunder and shall be bound by all of the provisions hereof and Escrow Agent shall be relieved of all further obligations and released from all liability thereafter arising with respect to the Escrow Funds and under this Agreement.

7. Investment.  All funds received by the Escrow Agent shall be held uninvested only in non-interest bearing bank accounts at Escrow Agent.

8. Compensation.  The Escrow Agent shall be entitled, for the ordinary duties to be performed by it hereunder, to a fee of $6,000.00, which fee shall be paid by the Trust upon the signing of this Agreement. Further, if the term of this Agreement exceeds one (1) year from the execution date hereof, a fee of $1,500.00 will be paid by the Trust on each such anniversary of the execution of this Agreement. In addition, the Trust shall be obligated to reimburse Escrow Agent for all fees, costs and expenses incurred or that become due in connection with this Agreement or the Escrow Account, including reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses. Neither the modification, cancellation, termination or rescission of this Agreement nor the resignation or termination of the Escrow Agent shall affect the right of the Escrow Agent to retain the amount of any fee which has been paid, or to be reimbursed or paid any amount which has been incurred or becomes due, prior to the effective date of any such modification, cancellation, termination, resignation or rescission.  To the extent the Escrow Agent has incurred any such expenses, or any such fee becomes due, prior to any closing, the Escrow Agent shall advise the Trust and the Trust shall direct all such amounts to be paid directly at any such closing.  The Escrow Agent shall be entitled to a fee of $1,000 in the event the Agreement is amended for any reason in accordance with Section 10(d).

9. Notices.  All notices, requests, demands and other communications required or permitted to be given hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given if sent by hand-delivery, by electronic mail (followed by first-class mail), by nationally recognized overnight courier service or by prepaid registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, to the addresses set forth below:
