Neutral Impact 1 of 5 product/contract Written later

On December 24, 2020, the trust's sponsor, GraniteShares LLC, signed a new marketing agent services agreement with ALPS Distributors, Inc., effective January 1, 2021. The previous agreement with Foreside Fund Services, L.L.C. terminates December 31, 2020, and the filing says the services under the two agreements are substantially similar, so the change appears administrative for shareholders.
