Platinum Trust (the &ldquo;Trust&rdquo;) will issue GraniteShares Platinum Shares (&ldquo;Shares&rdquo;) which represent units
of fractional undivided beneficial interest in the net assets of the Trust. The Trust will seek to reflect generally the performance
of the price of platinum. The Trust will seek to reflect such performance before payment of the Trust&rsquo;s expenses and liabilities.
GraniteShares LLC (the &ldquo;Sponsor&rdquo;) is the sponsor of the Trust; The Bank of New York Mellon (the &ldquo;Trustee&rdquo;)
is the trustee of the Trust; and ICBC Standard Bank Plc (the &ldquo;Custodian&rdquo;) is the custodian of the Trust. The Trust
intends to issue additional Shares on a continuous basis.</FONT></P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt">The
Shares may be purchased from the Trust only in one or more blocks of 50,000 Shares (a block of 50,000 Shares is called a &ldquo;Basket&rdquo;).
The Trust will issue Shares in Baskets to certain authorized participants (&ldquo;Authorized Participants&rdquo;) on an ongoing
basis, as described in &ldquo;Plan of Distribution.&rdquo; Baskets will be offered continuously at the net asset value for 50,000
Shares on the day that an order to create a Basket is accepted by the Trustee. The net asset value per Share (&ldquo;NAV&rdquo;)
is calculated by taking the current price of the Trust&rsquo;s total assets (determined with respect to platinum on the LBMA Platinum
Price PM), subtracting any liabilities, and dividing by the total number of Shares outstanding. The offering of the Trust&rsquo;s
Shares is a &ldquo;best efforts&rdquo; offering, which means that the Authorized Participants are not required to purchase a specific
number or dollar amount of Shares. Authorized Participants will not receive from the Sponsor, the Trust or any affiliates any
fee or other compensation in connection with the offering of the Shares.</FONT></P>

<P STYLE="font: 10pt Times New Roman, Times, Serif; margin: 0; text-align: justify"><FONT STYLE="font-family: Times New Roman, Times, Serif; font-size: 10pt">The
Shares will trade on the NYSE Arca (the &ldquo;Exchange&rdquo;) under the symbol &ldquo;PLTM&rdquo; after they are initially purchased
by Authorized Participants. It is expected that the Shares will be sold to the public at varying prices to be determined by reference
to, among other considerations, the price of platinum and the trading price of the Shares on the Exchange at the time of each
sale. The market price of the Shares may be different from the NAV and may trade at a discount or premium. Investors who decide
to buy or sell Shares of the Trust will place their trade orders through their brokers and may incur customary brokerage commissions
and charges.</FONT></P>

prospectus includes statements which relate to future events or future performance. In some cases, you can identify such forward-looking
statements by terminology such as &ldquo;may,&rdquo; &ldquo;will,&rdquo; &ldquo;should,&rdquo; &ldquo;expect,&rdquo; &ldquo;plan,&rdquo;
&ldquo;anticipate,&rdquo; &ldquo;believe,&rdquo; &ldquo;estimate,&rdquo; &ldquo;predict,&rdquo; &ldquo;potential&rdquo; or the

and references to the Trust&rsquo;s future success and other similar matters are forward-looking statements. These statements
are only predictions. Actual events or results may differ materially. These statements are based upon certain assumptions and
analyses made by the Sponsor on the basis of its perception of historical trends, current conditions and expected future developments,
as well as other factors it believes are appropriate in the circumstances. Whether or not actual results and developments will
conform to the Sponsor&rsquo;s expectations and predictions, however, is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties, including
the special considerations discussed in this prospectus, general economic, market and business conditions, changes in laws or
regulations, including those concerning taxes, made by governmental authorities or regulatory bodies, and other world economic
and political developments. See &ldquo;Risk Factors.&rdquo; Consequently, all the forward-looking statements made in this prospectus
are qualified by these cautionary statements, and there can be no assurance that the actual results or developments the Sponsor
anticipates will be realized or, even if substantially realized, that they will result in the expected consequences to, or have
the expected effects on, the Trust&rsquo;s operations or the value of the Shares. Moreover, neither the Sponsor, nor any other
person assumes responsibility for the accuracy or completeness of the forward-looking statements. Neither the Trust nor the Sponsor
undertakes an obligation to publicly update or conform to actual results any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of
new information, future developments or otherwise, except as required by law.</FONT></P>

Trust was formed in 2018 when an initial deposit of platinum was made in exchange for the issuance of two Baskets. The purpose
of the Trust is to own platinum transferred to the Trust in exchange for Shares issued by the Trust. Each Share represents a unit
of fractional undivided beneficial interest in the net assets of the Trust. The assets of the Trust consist primarily of platinum
held by the Custodian on behalf of the Trust. However, there may be situations where the Trust will unexpectedly hold cash. For
example, a claim may arise against a third party, which is settled in cash. In situations where the Trust unexpectedly receives
cash or other assets, no new Shares will be issued until after the record date for the distribution of such cash or other property
has passed.</FONT></P>

Trust issues Shares only in blocks of 50,000 or integral multiples thereof. Baskets of Shares may be redeemed by the Trust in
exchange for the amount of platinum corresponding to their redemption value. Individual Shares are not redeemed by the Trust,
but are listed and trade on the Exchange under the symbol &ldquo;PLTM.&rdquo; The Trust seeks to reflect generally the performance
of the price of platinum. The Trust seeks to reflect such performance before payment of the Trust&rsquo;s expenses and liabilities.
The material terms of the Trust are discussed in greater detail under the section &ldquo;Description of the Shares and the Trust
Agreement.&rdquo; The Trust is not a registered investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and is

objective of the Trust is for the value of the Shares to reflect, at any given time, the value of the assets owned by the Trust
at that time less the Trust&rsquo;s accrued expenses and liabilities as of that time. The Shares are intended to constitute a
simple and cost-effective means of making an investment similar to an investment in platinum. An investment in allocated physical
platinum bullion requires expensive and sometimes complicated arrangements in connection with the assay, transportation and warehousing
of the metal. Traditionally, such expense and complications have resulted in investments in physical platinum bullion being efficient
only in amounts beyond the reach of many investors. The Shares have been designed to remove the obstacles represented by the expense
and complications involved in an investment in physical platinum bullion, while at the same time having an intrinsic value that
reflects, at any given time, the price of the assets owned by the Trust at such time less the Trust expenses and liabilities.
Although the Shares are not the exact equivalent of an investment in platinum, they provide investors with an alternative that
allows a level of participation in the platinum market through the securities market.</FONT></P>

Shares represent an interest in physical platinum owned by the Trust (other than up to a maximum of 192 ounces of platinum held
in unallocated form) and held in physical custody at the Custodian. Physical platinum of the Trust in the Custodian&rsquo;s possession
is not subject to borrowing arrangements with third parties. Other than the platinum temporarily being held in an unallocated
platinum account of the Trust in connection with deposits and an amount of platinum comprising less than 192 ounces which may
be held in the unallocated platinum account of the Trust on an ongoing basis, the physical platinum of the Trust is not subject
to counterparty or credit risks. This contrasts with most other financial products that gain exposure to precious metals through
the use of derivatives that are subject to counterparty and credit risks.</FONT></P>

    the Exchange listing fees, SEC registration fees, marketing expenses, printing and mailing costs, audit fees and expenses

    to 0.50% of the net asset value of the Trust and is payable monthly in arrears. The Sponsor may, at its discretion and from
    time to time, waive all or a portion of the Sponsor&rsquo;s Fee for stated periods of time. The Sponsor is under no obligation
    to waive any portion of its fees and any such waiver shall create no obligation to waive any such fees during any period not

    to reimburse the Sponsor. The Trustee from time to time may sell platinum in such quantities as may be necessary to permit
    the payment of the Sponsor&rsquo;s Fee and other Trust expenses and liabilities not assumed by the Sponsor. The Trustee will
    endeavor to sell platinum at such times and in the smallest amounts required to permit such payments as they become due, it
    being the intention to avoid or minimize the Trust&rsquo;s holdings of assets other than platinum. Accordingly, the amount
    of platinum to be sold may vary from time to time depending on the level of the Trust&rsquo;s expenses and liabilities and
    the market price of platinum. See &ldquo;The Trust&mdash;Trust Expenses&rdquo; and &ldquo;Description of the Shares and the

may purchase Shares to hedge existing platinum exposure or to speculate on the price of platinum. Speculation on the price of
platinum may involve long and short exposures. To the extent aggregate short exposure exceeds the number of Shares available for
purchase (for example, in the event that large redemption requests by Authorized Participants dramatically affect Share liquidity),
investors with short exposure may have to pay a premium to repurchase Shares for delivery to Share lenders. Those repurchases
may in turn, dramatically increase the price of the Shares until additional Shares are created through the creation process. This
is often referred to as a &ldquo;short squeeze.&rdquo; A short squeeze could lead to volatile price movements in Shares that are
not directly correlated to the price of platinum.</FONT></P>

Trustee values the Trust&rsquo;s platinum pursuant to the LBMA Platinum Price. In the event that the LBMA Platinum Price proves
to be an inaccurate benchmark, or the LBMA Platinum Price varies materially from the prices determined by other mechanisms for
valuing platinum, the value of the Trust&rsquo;s platinum and the market price of the Shares could be adversely impacted. Any
future developments in the LBMA Platinum Price, to the extent it has a material impact on the LBMA Platinum Price, could adversely
impact the value of the Trust&rsquo;s platinum and the market price of the Shares. It is possible that electronic failures or
other unanticipated events may occur that could result in delays in the announcement of, or the inability of the benchmark to
produce, the LBMA Platinum Price on any given date. Furthermore, any actual or perceived disruptions that result in the perception
that the LBMA Platinum Price is vulnerable to actual or attempted manipulation could adversely affect the behavior of market participants,
which may have an effect on the price of platinum. If the LBMA Platinum Price is unreliable for any reason, the price of platinum
and the market price for the Shares may decline or be subject to greater volatility.</FONT></P>

the Trust does not have any income, it needs to sell platinum to cover expenses not assumed by the Sponsor. The Trust may also
be subject to other liabilities (for example, as a result of litigation) which have also not been assumed by the Sponsor. The
only source of funds to cover those liabilities will be sales of platinum held by the Trust. Even if there are no expenses other
than those assumed by the Sponsor, and there are no other liabilities of the Trust, the Trustee will still need to sell platinum
to pay the Sponsor&rsquo;s Fee. The result of these sales is a decrease in the amount of platinum represented by each Share. New
deposits of platinum, received in exchange for new Shares issued by the Trust, do not reverse this trend.</FONT></P>

possibility of large-scale distress sales of platinum in times of crisis may have a short-term negative impact on the price of

these events occurs at a time when an Authorized Participant intends to redeem Shares, and the price of platinum decreases before
such Authorized Participant is able again to surrender Shares for redemption, such Authorized Participant will sustain a loss

redemption of its Shares, had the redemption taken place when such Authorized Participant originally intended it to occur. As
a consequence, Authorized Participants may reduce their trading in Shares during periods of suspension, decreasing the number

Custodian is responsible to the Trust for loss or damage to the Trust&rsquo;s platinum only under limited circumstances. The agreements
with the Custodian contemplate that the Custodian will be responsible to the Trust only if it acts with negligence, fraud or in
willful default of its obligations under those agreements. The Custodian&rsquo;s liability will not exceed the market value of
the platinum credited to the Trust Unallocated Account and the Trust Allocated Account at the time such negligence, fraud or willful
default is either discovered by or notified to the Custodian (such market value calculated using the nearest available LBMA Platinum
Price PM following the occurrence of such negligence, fraud or willful default), provided that, in the case of such discovery
by or notification to the Custodian, the Custodian notifies the Sponsor and the Trustee promptly after any discovery of such negligence,
fraud or willful default. Furthermore, the Custodian is not liable for any delay in performance, or for the non-performance, of
any of its obligations under the Custody Agreements by reason of any cause beyond the Custodian&rsquo;s reasonable control, including
any act of God or war or terrorism, any breakdown, malfunction or failure of, or connected with, any communication, computer,

such insurance and does not have the ability to dictate the existence, nature or amount of coverage. Therefore, Shareholders cannot

outbreak of infectious respiratory illness caused by a novel coronavirus known as COVID-19 was first detected in China in December
2019 and has now been spread globally. This outbreak has resulted in travel restrictions, closed international borders, enhanced
health screenings at ports of entry and elsewhere, disruption of and delays in healthcare service preparation and delivery, prolonged
quarantines, cancellations, supply chain disruptions, and lower consumer demand, layoffs, defaults and other significant economic
impacts, as well as general concern and uncertainty. The impact of this outbreak has adversely affected the economies of many
nations and the entire global economy and may impact individual issuers and capital markets in ways that cannot necessarily be
foreseen. Other infectious illness outbreaks that may arise in the future could have similar impacts. Public health crises caused
by the outbreak may exacerbate other pre-existing political, social and economic risks in certain countries or globally.</FONT></P>

COVID-19 outbreak will have serious negative effects on social, economic and financial systems, including significant uncertainty
and volatility in the financial markets. For instance, the suspension of operations of mines, refineries and vaults that extract,
produce or store platinum, restrictions on travel that delay or prevent the transportation of platinum, and an increase in demand
for platinum may disrupt supply chains for platinum, which could cause secondary market spreads to widen and compromise our ability
to make settlements on time. Any inability of the Trust to issue or redeem Shares or the Custodian or any sub-custodian to receive
or deliver platinum as a result of the outbreak will negatively affect the Trust&rsquo;s operations.</FONT></P>

duration of the outbreak and its effects cannot be determined with certainty. A prolonged outbreak could result in an increase
of the costs of the Trust, affect liquidity in the market for platinum as well as the correlation between the price of the Shares
and the net asset value of the Trust, any of which could adversely affect the value of your Shares. In addition, the outbreak
could also impair the information technology and other operational systems upon which the Trust&rsquo;s service providers, including
the Sponsor, the Trustee and the Custodian, rely, and could otherwise disrupt the ability of employees of the Trust&rsquo;s service
providers to perform essential tasks on behalf of the Trust. Governmental and quasi-governmental authorities and regulators throughout
the world have in the past responded to major economic disruptions with a variety of fiscal and monetary policy changes, including,
but not limited to, direct capital infusions into companies, new monetary programs and lower interest rates. An unexpected or
quick reversal of these policies, or the ineffectiveness of these policies, is likely to increase volatility in the market for
platinum, which could adversely affect the price of the Shares.</FONT></P>

the outbreak could interfere with or prevent the determination of the applicable benchmark price, which the Trustee uses to value
the platinum held by the Trust and calculate the net asset value of the Trust. The outbreak could also cause the closure of futures
exchanges, which could eliminate the ability of Authorized Participants to hedge purchases of Baskets, increasing trading costs
of Shares and resulting in a sustained premium or discount in the Shares. Each of these outcomes would negatively impact the Trust.</FONT></P>

an aggregate of 400,000 shares representing units of fractional undivided beneficial interests in the net assets of the Trust.
During such period, the Trust&rsquo;s Registration Statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-221325) to register the November Shares
was not &ldquo;current&rdquo; because the registration statement had not been amended to include the Trust&rsquo;s most recent
audited financial statements. As a result, the sales of the November Shares were not registered under federal and state securities
laws. Consequently, purchasers of the November Shares may seek to rescind the sales, in which case the Trust could be liable for
rescission payments to them in the amount of their aggregate original purchase price plus applicable interest. If one or more
holders were to successfully seek such rescission or prevail in any such suit, the Trust&rsquo;s financial condition and results
of operations may be adversely affected. As of the date hereof, the Trust has not received any claims for rescission or damages
or claims relating to any other liability stemming from the Trust&rsquo;s issuance of the November Shares.</FONT></P>

exchanges seek to provide a neutral, regulated marketplace for the trading of derivatives contracts for commodities, such as futures,

the contract specifies the precise commodity quality and quantity standards, as well as the location and timing of physical delivery
for the reference physical commodity, although only a very small number of these contracts result in the actual commodity delivery.</FONT></P>

addition to the public nature of the pricing, futures exchanges in the United States are regulated at two levels, internal and
external governmental supervision. The internal is performed through self-regulation by self-regulatory organizations and consists
of regular monitoring of the trading process to ensure that it is conducted in conformance with all exchange rules; the financial
condition of all exchange member firms to ensure that they continuously meet financial commitments; and the positions of commercial
and noncommercial customers to ensure that physical delivery and other commercial commitments can be met, and that pricing is
not being improperly affected by the size of any particular customer positions. External governmental oversight is performed by
the CFTC, which reviews all the rules and regulations of United States futures exchanges and monitors their enforcement. The CFTC
oversees the operation of the U.S. commodity futures markets, including the CME. One of the principal public policy objectives
of the Commodity Exchange Act is to ensure the integrity of the markets it oversees and the reliability of the prices of trades
on those markets. The Commodity Exchange Act and CFTC require futures exchanges to ensure compliance with core principles applicable
to designated contract markets to have rules and procedures to prevent market manipulation, abusive trade practice and fraud,
and the CFTC conducts regular review of the markets&rsquo; rule enforcement programs. Other local regulators enforce their own
regulations governing trading platforms and futures exchanges located in their jurisdictions.</FONT></P>

objective of the Trust is for the value of the Shares to reflect, at any given time, the value of the assets owned by the Trust
at that time less the Trust&rsquo;s accrued expenses and liabilities as of that time. The Shares are intended to constitute a
simple and cost-effective means of making an investment similar to an investment in platinum. An investment in allocated physical
platinum bullion requires expensive and sometimes complicated arrangements in connection with the assay, transportation and warehousing
of the metal. Traditionally, such expense and complications have resulted in investments in physical platinum bullion being efficient
only in amounts beyond the reach of many investors. The Shares have been designed to remove the obstacles represented by the expense
and complications involved in an investment in physical platinum bullion, while at the same time having an intrinsic value that
reflects, at any given time, the price of the assets owned by the Trust at such time less the Trust expenses and liabilities.
Although the Shares are not the exact equivalent of an investment in platinum, they provide investors with an alternative that
allows a level of participation in the platinum market through the securities market.</FONT></P>

the Trust seeks to reflect generally the performance of the price of platinum less the Trust&rsquo;s expenses and liabilities,
Shares may trade at, above or below their NAV. The NAV of Shares will fluctuate with changes in the market value of the Trust&rsquo;s
assets. The trading prices of Shares will fluctuate in accordance with changes in their NAV as well as market supply and demand.
The amount of the discount or premium in the trading price relative to the NAV may be influenced by non-concurrent trading hours
between the major platinum markets and the Exchange. While the Shares trade on the Exchange until 4:00 p.m. (New York time), liquidity
in the market for platinum may be reduced after the close of the major world platinum markets, including London, Zurich and NYMEX.
As a result, during this time, trading spreads, and the resulting premium or discount, on Shares may widen. However, given that
Baskets of Shares can be created and redeemed in exchange for the underlying amount of platinum, the Sponsor believes that the
arbitrage opportunities may provide a mechanism to mitigate the effect of such premium or discount.</FONT></P>

Trust was formed in 2018 when an initial deposit of platinum was made in exchange for the issuance of two Baskets. The purpose
of the Trust is to own platinum transferred to the Trust in exchange for Shares issued by the Trust. The Trust is governed by

Share represents a unit of fractional undivided beneficial interest in the net assets of the Trust. The assets of the Trust consist
primarily of platinum held by the Custodian on behalf of the Trust. However, the Trustee will, at the direction of the Sponsor,
or, in the absence of such direction, may, in its discretion, sell the Trust&rsquo;s platinum as necessary to cover the Sponsor&rsquo;s
Fee and expenses and liabilities not assumed by the Sponsor. Such sales result in the Trust holding cash for brief periods of
time. In addition, there may be other situations where the Trust may hold cash. For example, a claim may arise against the Custodian,
an Authorized Participant, or any other third party, which is settled in cash. In those situations where the Trust unexpectedly
receives cash or any other assets, the Trust Agreement provides that no deposits of platinum will be accepted (i.e., there will
be no issuance of new Shares) until after the record date for the distribution of such cash or other property has passed.</FONT></P>

Trustee is authorized under the Trust Agreement to create and issue an unlimited number of Shares. The Trustee will create Shares
only in Baskets (a Basket equals a block of 50,000 Shares) and only upon the order of an Authorized Participant. Any creation
and issuance of Shares above the amount registered on the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part will require
the registration of such additional Shares. Baskets of Shares may be redeemed by the Trust in exchange for the amount of platinum
represented by the aggregate number of Shares redeemed. The Trust is not a registered investment company under the Investment
Company Act of 1940, as amended and is not required to register under such act. The Trust is not a commodity pool for purposes
of the Commodity Exchange Act of 1936, as amended.</FONT></P>

(such as stamp taxes or stock transfer taxes or fees), the Trustee will deliver the appropriate number of Baskets to the DTC account
of the depositing Authorized Participant. Only Authorized Participants can deposit platinum and receive Baskets of Shares in exchange.
As of the date of this prospectus, J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Merrill Lynch Professional Clearing Corp., Morgan Stanley &amp;
Co., LLC, Virtu Americas LLC and Virtu Financial BD LLC are the Authorized Participants. The Sponsor and the Trustee maintain
a current list of Authorized Participants. Platinum allocated by the Custodian to the Trust Allocated Account must meet the Good

making a deposit, the Authorized Participant must deliver to the Trustee a written purchase order indicating the number of Baskets
it intends to acquire. The Trustee will acknowledge the purchase order unless it or the Sponsor decides to refuse the purchase
order as permitted by the Trust Agreement. The date the Trustee receives that order determines the Basket Amount the Authorized
Participant needs to deposit. However, orders received by the Trustee after 3:59 p.m. (New York time) on a business day or on
a business day when the LBMA Platinum Price PM or other applicable benchmark price is not announced, will not be accepted.</FONT></P>

the Trustee accepts the purchase order, it transmits to the Authorized Participant, via facsimile or electronic mail message,
no later than 5:30 p.m. (New York time) on the date such purchase order is received, or deemed received, a copy of the purchase
order endorsed &ldquo;Accepted&rdquo; by the Trustee and indicating the Basket Amount that the Authorized Participant must deliver
to the Custodian at the Trust Unallocated Account loco London in exchange for each Basket. Prior to the Trustee&rsquo;s acceptance
as specified above, a purchase order only represents the Authorized Participant&rsquo;s unilateral offer to deposit platinum in
exchange for Baskets of Shares and has no binding effect upon the Trust, the Trustee, the Custodian or any other party.</FONT></P>

Basket Amount necessary for the creation of a Basket changes from day to day. The initial Basket Amount at the time of creation
of the Trust was 1,500 Ounces of platinum. On each day that the Exchange is open for regular trading, the Trustee adjusts the
quantity of platinum constituting the Basket Amount as appropriate to reflect sales of platinum, any loss of platinum that may
occur, and accrued expenses. The computation is made by the Trustee as promptly as practicable after 4:00 p.m. (New York time).
See &ldquo;The Trust&mdash;Valuation of Platinum; Computation of Net Asset Value&rdquo; for a description of how the LBMA Platinum
Price PM is determined, and description of how the Trustee determines the NAV. The Trustee determines the Basket Amount for a
given day by dividing the number of Ounces of platinum held by the Trust as of the opening of business on that business day, adjusted
for the amount of platinum constituting estimated accrued but unpaid fees and expenses of the Trust as of the opening of business
on that business day, by the quotient of the number of Shares outstanding at the opening of business divided by 50,000. Fractions
of an Ounce of platinum smaller than 0.001 Ounce are disregarded for purposes of the computation of the Basket Amount. The Basket
Amount so determined is communicated via electronic mail message to all Authorized Participants, and made available on the Sponsor&rsquo;s
website for the Shares. The Exchange also publishes the Basket Amount determined by the Trustee as indicated above.</FONT></P>

the Sponsor has assumed what are expected to be most of the Trust&rsquo;s expenses, and the Sponsor&rsquo;s Fee accrues daily
at the same rate (i.e., 1/365th of the net asset value of the Trust multiplied by 0.50%), in the absence of any extraordinary
expenses or liabilities, the amount of platinum by which the Basket Amount decreases each day is predictable. Authorized Participants
may use that indicative Basket Amount as guidance regarding the amount of platinum that they may expect to have to deposit with
the Custodian in respect of purchase orders placed by them on such next business day and accepted by the Trustee. The Authorized
Participant Agreement provides, however, that once a purchase order has been accepted by the Trustee, the Authorized Participant
will be required to deposit with the Custodian the Basket Amount determined by the Trustee on the effective date of the purchase
order.</FONT></P>

be able to own Shares only in the form of book-entry security entitlements with DTC or direct or indirect participants in DTC.
No investor will be entitled to receive a separate certificate evidencing Shares. Because Shares can only be held in the form
of book-entries through DTC and its participants, investors must rely on DTC, a DTC participant and any other financial intermediary
through which they hold Shares to receive the benefits and exercise the rights described in this section. Investors should consult
with their broker or financial institution to find out about the procedures and requirements for securities held in DTC book-entry
form.</FONT></P>

cure any material breach by it of the Trust Agreement, and registered holders of at least 75% of the Shares have the right to

DTC was created to hold securities of DTC Participants and to facilitate the clearance and settlement of transactions in those
securities among DTC Participants through electronic book-entry changes. This eliminates the need for physical movement of securities
certificates. DTC Participants include securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations, and certain
other organizations, some of whom (and/or their representatives) own DTC. Access to the DTC system is also available to others
such as banks, brokers, dealers and trust companies that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a DTC Participant,
either directly or indirectly. DTC agrees with and represents to DTC Participants that it will administer its book-entry system
in accordance with its rules and by-laws and requirements of law.</FONT></P>

Sponsor and the Trustee will treat the Trust as a &ldquo;grantor trust&rdquo; for United States federal income tax purposes. In
the opinion of Vedder Price P.C., special United States federal income tax counsel to the Sponsor, the Trust will be classified
as a &ldquo;grantor trust&rdquo; for United States federal income tax purposes. As a result, the Trust itself will not be subject
to United States federal income tax. Instead, the Trust&rsquo;s income and expenses will &ldquo;flow through&rdquo; to the Shareholders,
and the Trustee will report the Trust&rsquo;s income, gains, losses and deductions to the Internal Revenue Service (the &ldquo;IRS&rdquo;)
on that basis. The opinion of Vedder Price P.C. represents only its best legal judgment and is not binding on the IRS or any court.
Accordingly, there can be no assurance that the IRS will agree with the conclusions of counsel&rsquo;s opinion and it is possible
that the IRS or another tax authority could assert a position contrary to one or all of those conclusions and that a court could
sustain that contrary position. Neither the Sponsor nor the Trustee will request a ruling from the IRS with respect to the classification
of the Trust for United States federal income tax purposes. If the IRS were to assert successfully that the Trust is not classified

held in the Trust. Shareholders also will be treated as if they directly received their respective pro rata shares of the Trust&rsquo;s

a Shareholder that purchases Shares for cash, its initial tax basis in its pro rata share of the assets held in the Trust at the
time it acquires its Shares will be equal to its cost of acquiring the Shares. In the case of a Shareholder that acquires its

Shareholder&rsquo;s pro rata share of the platinum held in the Trust will be the same as its tax basis and holding period for
the platinum delivered in exchange therefor. For purposes of this discussion, and unless stated otherwise, it is assumed that
all of a Shareholder&rsquo;s Shares are acquired on the same date and at the same price per Share. Shareholders that hold multiple
lots of Shares, or that are contemplating acquiring multiple lots of Shares, should consult their own tax advisers as to the determination

current law, gains recognized by individuals from the sale of &ldquo;collectibles,&rdquo; including platinum, held for more than
one year are taxed at a maximum rate of 28%, rather than the current maximum 20% rate applicable to most other long-term capital
gains. For these purposes, gain recognized by an individual upon the sale of an interest in a trust that holds collectibles is
treated as gain recognized on the sale of collectibles, to the extent that the gain is attributable to unrealized appreciation
in value of the collectibles held by the trust. Therefore, any gain recognized by an individual U.S. Shareholder attributable
to a sale of Shares held for more than one year, or attributable to the Trust&rsquo;s sale of any platinum which the Shareholder
is treated (through its ownership of Shares) as having held for more than one year, generally will be taxed at a maximum federal
income tax rate of 28%. The federal income tax rates for capital gains recognized upon the sale of assets held by an individual
U.S. Shareholder for one year or less are generally the same as those at which ordinary income is taxed. A U.S. corporation&rsquo;s
capital gain is generally taxed at the same federal income tax rates applicable to the corporation&rsquo;s ordinary income. The
deductibility of capital losses may be subject to limitations under the Code.</FONT></P>

be consistent with preservation of their qualification under Code Section 851. We note that in administrative guidance, the IRS

is treated as a taxable distribution from the account to the owner of the IRA, or to the participant for whom the Tax Qualified
Account is maintained, of an amount equal to the cost to the account of acquiring the collectible. The IRS has issued private
letter rulings which provide that the purchase of shares of trusts similar to the Trust by an IRA or a Tax Qualified Account will
not constitute the acquisition of a collectible or be treated as resulting in a taxable distribution to the IRA owner or Tax Qualified
Account participant under Code Section 408(m). However, if any of the Shares so purchased are distributed from an IRA or Tax Qualified
Account to the IRA owner or plan participant, or if any platinum received by such IRA or Tax Qualified Account upon the redemption
of any of the Shares purchased by it is distributed (or treated as distributed pursuant to Code Section 408(m)) to the IRA owner
or plan participant, the Shares or platinum so distributed will be subject to federal income tax in the year of distribution,
to the extent provided under the applicable provisions of Code Sections 408(d), 408(m) or 402. Private letter rulings are only
binding on the IRS with respect to the taxpayer to which they were issued. The Trust has neither requested nor obtained such a
private letter ruling. Accordingly, potential IRA or Tax Qualified Account investors are urged to consult with their own professional
advisors concerning the treatment of an investment in Shares under Code Section 408(m).</FONT></P>
