The Registrant does not have a Board of Directors or Audit Committee but is rather overseen by its Sponsor and served by its service
providers. The Registrant has added disclosure to that effect. However, the Registrant does not believe that not having a Board
of Directors or an Audit Committee for a trust that is not otherwise required or mandated by the federal securities laws, federal
commodities laws or state law necessarily creates an investment risk. The Registrant notes that peer registrants utilizing similar
organizational structures also appear to not disclose such a structural choice as an investment risk.</P>

As noted above, the Fund intends that all, or substantially all, of its assets will be invested in short positions on VIX futures
contracts as determined by the Index. The Registrant currently discloses that &ldquo;in the event that accountability rules, price
limits, position limits, margin limits or other exposure limits are reached with respect to VIX futures contracts, the Sponsor
may cause the Fund to obtain exposure to the Index through the use of options contracts or swap transactions referencing the VIX
futures contracts.&rdquo; The Fund will further disclose, in response to the Staff&rsquo;s comment, that &ldquo;To the extent that
any options or swap transaction entered into by the Fund are believed by the Fund to be &ldquo;securities&rdquo; under the Investment
Company Act of 1940, the Fund will limit its investment in such transactions so that such investments, in combination, will not
exceed 40 percent of the Fund&rsquo;s assets and thereby avoid potentially being deemed an unregistered investment company.&rdquo;</P>
