3 KRBN KraneShares Global Carbon Strategy ETF KraneShares California Carbon Allowance Strategy ETF KCCA Investment Thesis • Carbon portfolio historically provides annualized returns above the S&P 500 1 • Structurally designed for long

term price appreciation due to the markets’ increasing supply scarcity 2 • Low correlations to major asset classes, including 0.3 to US large cap 1 • Provides alternative return profile with potential inflation and climate risk hedging • Standardized, liquid market valued at $900B 3 across the five largest markets • Benefits from structured demand from the program’s government

mandated participation for high

emitting sectors Impact • Provides potential impact by supporting price discovery and liquidity in carbon markets 4 while counterbalancing a portfolio’s emissions exposure and energy transition/climate risk • Cap and trade supports fuel switching and capital directed toward innovation in renewable technology 4 Executive Summary 1.

TNAC as of 12/31/2025. The EU ETS is the oldest emissions cap

and

trade program, first launched in 2005. It covers ~40% of the total EU emissions, including activities from the power sector, manufacturing industry, and aviation (including flights from the EU to the United Kingdom). In 2020, Switzerland linked with the EU ETS. Market Outlook: • A 55% cut in GHGs by 2030 vs. 1990 levels, rather than a 40% cut that was previously agreed • Supply will continue to be reduced with an accelerated cap reduction factor of 4%, up from previous 2.2% while the Market Stability Reserve’s (MSR) 24% intake rate will remain • REPowerEU — a €20 billion initiative that aims to speed up Europe’s transition away from Russian fossil fuels to low

carbon energy sources — will be funded partially from the frontloading of auction allowances. This approach introduces a supply of additional allowances now but results in a steeper tightening in the future • Establishment of the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) puts tariff on goods imported into EU to account for carbon leakage.

Note, Swiss allowance supply is not considered in the TNAC, and Swiss auction quotas are not affected by the MSR.
