FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
 
Teucrium Trading, LLC Suspends Creations in WEAT
 
Burlington, Vermont – March 7, 2022 -- Teucrium Wheat Fund (the "Fund"), a series of the Teucrium Commodity Trust (the "Trust"), offers its shares on a continuous basis and when all registered shares have been sold, additional shares are registered in subsequent registration statements with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). On March 7, 2022, Teucrium Trading, LLC ("Teucrium"), the Fund's and Trust's sponsor, issued a press release announcing that as of the opening of the markets, the Fund had only approximately 7,375,000 (the "Current Shares") registered with the SEC that are available for purchase by its Authorized Purchasers.
 
The press release also noted that the Fund filed a registration statement with the SEC on March 4, 2022 to register additional shares, and that if the Fund sells all of the Current Shares before the SEC declares the registration statement effective, the Fund will be required to temporarily suspend creation of its shares. In such case, until the Fund's registration statement is declared effective, the Fund may not meet its investment objective, may experience increased tracking error and may experience significant premium/discounts and bid-ask spreads.
 
The Fund has now sold all available shares and has suspended creations. While creations are suspended and in compliance with NYSE/Arca rules, the Fund will continue to accept redemption requests as described in the Fund’s prospectus, and investors will continue to be able to buy and sell Fund shares on the stock exchange through their broker-dealers. However, if demand for Fund shares exceeds supply while creations are suspended, Fund shares may trade at a premium to their net asset value (i.e., at prices greater than net asset value).
 
Teucrium will provide notice to market participants when the Fund's registration statement is effective and sales of the Fund's shares commence, which it expects to occur in the near future.
