Description of the Proposal The Exchange proposes to add Amex rules 1600 et seq. that would permit the listing and trading of units of a trust or other similar entity (‘‘Trust Units’’) that invests in the assets of a trust, partnership, limited liability company, corporation or other similar entity constituted as a commodity pool that holds investments comprising or otherwise based on futures contracts, options on futures contracts, forward contracts, commodities and high credit quality short-term fixed income securities or other securities. Pursuant to these proposed rules, the Amex proposes to list and trade the Shares, which represent beneficial ownership interests in the assets of the Fund, which in turn, consist solely of units (‘‘Master Fund Units’’) of the Nuveen Commodities Income and Growth Master Fund LLC (the ‘‘Master Fund’’). The Exchange also proposes to amend section 141 of the Amex Company Guide (‘‘Company Guide’’) regarding listing fees to accommodate the listing of Trust Units.5 As described in the Exchange’s proposal,6 the Fund’s primary investment objective is to seek total return through broad exposure to the commodities markets. The Fund’s secondary objective is to provide investors with monthly income and capital distributions not commonly associated with commodity investments. The Master Fund will invest in commodity futures and forward contracts, options on commodity futures and forward contracts, and over-the-counter (‘‘OTC’’) commodity options in the following commodity groups: energy, industrial metals, precious metals, livestock, agriculturals, and tropical foods and fibers and may in the future include other commodity investments that 3 See Securities Exchange Act Release No. 56465 (September 19, 2007), 72 FR 54489 (‘‘Notice’’). 4 See letter to Nancy M.
