An ETN is a senior, unsecured, unsubordinated debt security issued by a financial institution that can be bought and sold on an exchange. Unlike traditional debt securities, ETNs do not guarantee investors any return of principal. Instead, the returns of ETNs are based on the performance, whether negative or positive, of an underlying index that provides exposure to one or more underlying asset classes, including commodity, currency, equity and fixed income assets. In addition, investors in ETNs have no ownership interest in the underlying assets and are subject to the credit risk of the issuer. What risks are associated with ETNs? Unlike traditional debt securities, the principal of ETNs is not protected. Returns of ETNs will be positively affected by any favorable performance and negatively affected by any adverse performance of the underlying index. For leveraged ETNs, any gain or loss related to the underlying index will be amplified. ETN investors are also exposed to issuer credit risk. As a result, the issuer's actual and perceived creditworthiness will affect the market value of the ETNs, and in the event the issuer were to default on its payment obligations, investors may not receive any amount owed to them under the terms of the ETNs. Investors in ETNs have no recourse to any underlying assets. Do the ETNs replicate a direct investment in the underlying index? Investing in the ETNs is not equivalent to a direct investment in the underlying index or index components. Investors have no recourse to any underlying assets and the principal amount 2/25/2015 |
Page 2 of 3 (the amount you invested) is also subject to the applicable investor fees, which can adversely affect returns. What are Inverse ETNs? Inverse ETNs are products that provide investors with short exposure to an underlying index, meaning that their returns will increase with depreciations and decrease with appreciations of the underlying index. Inverse ETNs may also provide investors leveraged short exposure to an underlying index. Inverse ETNs may not be suitable for all investors. How do I buy and sell ETNs? ETNs are traded on an exchange. Investors can buy or sell ETNs through their broker on a U.S. securities exchange during market hours. Is a net asset value (NAV) calculated for ETNs? Because ETNs are securities and investors don't have an ownership stake in any underlying assets, they do not have a NAV like ETFs. For ETNs, the intraday indicative value (which approximates the intrinsic economic value of each ETN) is published every 15 seconds during the trading sessions and the repurchase value (at which the issuer will repurchase the ETNs) is published at the end of each trading day on the issuer's website or on third party publication sources including Bloomberg and Reuters. Who is the issuer for the DB ETNs? The DB ETNs are issued by Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch and are subject to the credit risk of Deutsche Bank AG. For more information about Deutsche Bank AG, you can review Deutsche Bank's annual report on Form 20-F and Interim Reports on Form 6-K at www.sec.gov. Do the DB ETNs pay interest and dividends? These ETNs do not pay any interest or dividends. How are ETNs taxed? In determining our tax reporting responsibilities, if any, with respect to the ETNs, we expect to treat them for U.S. federal income tax purposes as prepaid financial contracts that are not 2/25/2015 |
Page 3 of 3 debt. If this treatment is respected, subject to any special considerations described in the relevant pricing supplement, (i) you should not recognize taxable income or loss prior to the taxable disposition of your Deutsche X-trackers ETNs (including at maturity or upon early redemption), (ii) in the case of equity-linked or commodity-linked ETNs, your gain or loss on the ETNs should be capital gain or loss, and (iii) 1099s, not K-1s, will be the tax reporting forms received. However, significant aspects of the tax treatment of the ETNs are uncertain. If the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") were successful in asserting an alternative treatment for the ETNs, the tax consequences of ownership and disposition of the ETNs could differ materially and adversely from those described briefly above. In addition, in 2007 the U.S. Treasury Department and the IRS released a notice requesting comments on the tax treatment of "prepaid forward contracts" and similar instruments. Any resulting guidance could materially and adversely affect the tax consequences of an investment in the ETNs, possibly with retroactive effect.

Risks of investing in the ETNs include limited portfolio diversification, uncertain principal repayment, trade price fluctuations, illiquidity and leveraged losses.

An Investment in the ETNs involves risks, including the loss of some or all of the principal amount. For a description of the main risks, see "Risk Factors" in the applicable pricing supplement and the accompanying prospectus supplement and prospectus.

An ETN is a senior, unsecured, unsubordinated debt security issued by a financial institution that can be bought and sold on an exchange. Unlike traditional debt securities, ETNs do not guarantee investors any return of principal. Instead, the returns of ETNs are based on the performance, whether negative or positive, of an underlying index that provides exposure to one or more underlying asset classes, including commodity, currency, equity and fixed income assets. In addition, investors in ETNs have no ownership interest in the underlying assets and are subject to the credit risk of the issuer. What risks are associated with ETNs? Unlike traditional debt securities, the principal of ETNs is not protected. Returns of ETNs will be positively affected by any favorable performance and negatively affected by any adverse performance of the underlying index. For leveraged ETNs, any gain or loss related to the underlying index will be amplified. ETN investors are also exposed to issuer credit risk. As a result, the issuer's actual and perceived creditworthiness will affect the market value of the ETNs, and in the event the issuer were to default on its payment obligations, investors may not receive any amount owed to them under the terms of the ETNs. Investors in ETNs have no recourse to any underlying assets. Do the ETNs replicate a direct investment in the underlying index? Investing in the ETNs is not equivalent to a direct investment in the underlying index or index components. Investors have no recourse to any underlying assets and the principal amount 2/25/2015 |
Page 2 of 4 (the amount you invested) is also subject to the applicable investor fees, which can adversely affect returns. What are Leveraged ETNs? Leveraged ETNs are designed to amplify returns related to an underlying index, whether positive or negative. Leveraged ETNs typically attempt to provide double or triple returns of an underlying index over a predetermined period of time, usually daily or monthly. The current principal amount is reset each day or month to ensure that a consistent degree of leverage is applied to any performance of the underlying index. If the current principal amount is reduced by a negative daily or monthly performance, any further negative daily or monthly performance will lead to a smaller loss when applied to that reduced current principal amount. However, if the current principal amount increases, the loss for a certain level of negative daily or monthly performance will increase correspondingly. Resetting the current principal amount also means that any gain from a positive daily or monthly performance will be contingent upon the current principal amount. The leverage feature and the daily or monthly reset of the principal amount will cause the performance of the ETNs to differ significantly from the point-to-point performance of the underlying index. Leveraged ETNs may not be suitable for all investors. What makes Deutsche Bank's Leveraged ETNs different from other Leveraged ETPs? Deutsche Bank offers a number of leveraged ETNs, the returns of which are reset on a monthly basis, as compared to other leveraged ETNs in the market that reset on a daily basis. ETNs reset on a daily basis are typically designed to achieve their stated objectives on a daily basis. Due to the effects of the leverage feature and the daily reset of the principal amount, the performance of leveraged ETNs over longer periods of time can differ significantly from the point-to-point performance of the underlying index. Deutsche Bank ETNs offer investors exposure to the month-over-month performance of its respective underlying index measured from the first calendar day to the last calendar day of each month. While Deutsche Bank's monthly reset ETNs lessen the deviation to the underlying index to certain degree, they may not be suitable for investors seeking an investment with a term greater than the time remaining to the next monthly reset date, and should be used only by knowledgeable investors who understand the potential adverse consequences of seeking longer-term leveraged investment results by means of securities that reset their exposure monthly. What are Inverse ETNs? Inverse ETNs are products that provide investors with short exposure to an underlying index, meaning that their returns will increase with depreciations and decrease with appreciations of the underlying index. Inverse ETNs may also provide investors leveraged short exposure to an underlying index. Inverse ETNs may not be suitable for all investors. How do I buy and sell ETNs? 2/25/2015 |
Page 3 of 4 ETNs are traded on an exchange. Investors can buy or sell ETNs through their broker on a U.S. securities exchange during market hours. Who is the issuer for the DB ETNs? The DB ETNs are issued by Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch and are subject to the credit risk of Deutsche Bank AG. For more information about Deutsche Bank AG, you can review Deutsche Bank's annual report on Form 20-F and Interim Reports on Form 6-K at www.sec.gov. Do the DB ETNs pay interest and dividends? These ETNs do not pay any interest or dividends. Can the DB ETNs be offered to the issuer for repurchase before its maturity date? These ETNs can be offered to the issuer for repurchase prior to its maturity date, subject to the minimum size requirements and the procedures described in the relevant prospectus. How are ETNs taxed? In determining our tax reporting responsibilities, if any, with respect to the ETNs, we expect to treat them for U.S. federal income tax purposes as prepaid financial contracts that are not debt. If this treatment is respected, subject to any special considerations described in the relevant pricing supplement, (i) you should not recognize taxable income or loss prior to the taxable disposition of your Deutsche X-trackers ETNs (including at maturity or upon early redemption), (ii) in the case of equity-linked or commodity-linked ETNs, your gain or loss on the ETNs should be capital gain or loss, and (iii) 1099s, not K-1s, will be the tax reporting forms received. However, significant aspects of the tax treatment of the ETNs are uncertain. If the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") were successful in asserting an alternative treatment for the ETNs, the tax consequences of ownership and disposition of the ETNs could differ materially and adversely from those described briefly above. In addition, in 2007 the U.S. Treasury Department and the IRS released a notice requesting comments on the tax treatment of "prepaid forward contracts" and similar instruments. Any resulting guidance could materially and adversely affect the tax consequences of an investment in the ETNs, possibly with retroactive effect.

The inverse or leveraged ETNs may not be suitable for investors seeking an investment with a term greater than the time remaining to the next monthly reset date and should be used only by knowledgeable investors who understand the potential adverse consequences of seeking longer-term inverse and/or leveraged investment results by means of securities that reset their exposure monthly, resulting in the compounding of monthly returns. Investing in the ETNs is not equivalent to a direct investment in the index or index components. The principal amount is also subject to the monthly application of the investor fee, which can adversely affect returns. There is no guarantee that you will receive at maturity, or upon an earlier repurchase, your initial investment back or any return on that investment. Significant adverse monthly performances for your securities may not be offset by any beneficial monthly performances. If at any time the repurchase value of the ETNs is zero, the relevant ETNs will be accelerated and you will lose your entire investment in such ETNs. As described in the relevant pricing supplement, Deutsche Bank may redeem the ETNs for an amount in cash equal to the repurchase value. Risks of investing in the ETNs include limited portfolio diversification, uncertain principal repayment, trade price fluctuations, illiquidity and leveraged losses. The leveraged ETNs are leveraged investments. As such, it is likely to be more volatile than an unleveraged investment. There is also a greater risk of loss of principal associated with a leveraged investment than with an unleveraged investment. The ETNs may be sold throughout the day on NYSE Arca through any brokerage account. Ordinary brokerage commissions apply. Sales in the secondary market may result in losses. There are restrictions on the minimum number of ETNs that you may redeem directly with Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch, as specified in the applicable pricing supplement. The ETNs provide concentrated exposure to notional positions in commodity futures contracts. The market value of the ETNs may be influenced by many unpredictable factors, including, among other things, volatile prices, changes in supply and demand relationships, changes in interest rates, and monetary and other governmental actions. An Investment in the ETNs involves risks, including the loss of some or all of the principal amount. For a description of the main risks, see "Risk Factors" in the applicable pricing supplement and the accompanying prospectus supplement and prospectus. An investor should consider the ETNs' investment objective, risks, charges and expenses carefully before investing. Depending on market demand, Deutsche Bank AG may create and issue additional ETNs that may be offered and sold from time to time in amounts to be determined solely by Deutsche Bank AG. However, Deutsche Bank AG is under no obligation to sell additional ETNs at any time, and if Deutsche Bank AG does sell additional ETNs, Deutsche Bank AG may limit such sales and stop selling additional ETNs at any time. If Deutsche Bank AG suspends the issuance of additional ETNs, the price and liquidity of such ETNs in the secondary market could be materially and adversely affected.

An ETN is a senior, unsecured, unsubordinated debt security issued by a financial institution that can be bought and sold on an exchange. Unlike traditional debt securities, ETNs do not guarantee investors any return of principal. Instead, the returns of ETNs are based on the performance, whether negative or positive, of an underlying index that provides exposure to one or more underlying asset classes, including commodity, currency, equity and fixed income assets. In addition, investors in ETNs have no ownership interest in the underlying assets and are subject to the credit risk of the issuer. What risks are associated with ETNs? Unlike traditional debt securities, the principal of ETNs is not protected. Returns of ETNs will be positively affected by any favorable performance and negatively affected by any adverse performance of the underlying index. For leveraged ETNs, any gain or loss related to the underlying index will be amplified. ETN investors are also exposed to issuer credit risk. As a result, the issuer's actual and perceived creditworthiness will affect the market value of the ETNs, and in the event the issuer were to default on its payment obligations, investors may not receive any amount owed to them under the terms of the ETNs. Investors in ETNs have no recourse to any underlying assets. Do the ETNs replicate a direct investment in the underlying index? Investing in the ETNs is not equivalent to a direct investment in the underlying index or index components. Investors have no recourse to any underlying assets and the principal amount 2/25/2015 |
Page 2 of 4 (the amount you invested) is also subject to the applicable investor fees, which can adversely affect returns. How do I buy and sell ETNs? ETNs are traded on an exchange. Investors can buy or sell ETNs through their broker on a U.S. securities exchange during market hours. Is a net asset value (NAV) calculated for ETNs? Because ETNs are securities and investors don't have an ownership stake in any underlying assets, they do not have a NAV like ETFs. For ETNs, the intraday indicative value (which approximates the intrinsic economic value of each ETN) is published every 15 seconds during the trading sessions and the repurchase value (at which the issuer will repurchase the ETNs) is published at the end of each trading day on the issuer's website or on third party publication sources including Bloomberg and Reuters. Who is the issuer for the DB ETNs? The DB ETNs are issued by Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch and are subject to the credit risk of Deutsche Bank AG. For more information about Deutsche Bank AG, you can review Deutsche Bank's annual report on Form 20-F and Interim Reports on Form 6-K at www.sec.gov. Do the DB ETNs pay interest and dividends? These ETNs do not pay any interest or dividends. What are the advantages of the DB ETNs? Deutsche Bank offers a broad range of ETNs that provide investors a flexible and cost effective way to gain long or short, unleveraged or leveraged exposure to commodity, currency or fixed income assets. For investors who are looking to gain leveraged exposure, the DB ETNs reset the principal amount monthly, rather than daily like many ETNs in the market. For investors seeking to add commodities to their portfolio without the hassle of receiving a Form K-1, the commodity ETN's offer investors an alternative that reports on Form 1099. 2/25/2015 |
Page 3 of 4 What is the Deutsche Bank Optimum Yield[TM] strategy? A number of commodity ETNs employs Deutsche Bank's proprietary Optimum YieldTM (OY) strategy, which is an innovative methodology designed to address negative roll yields in contango markets. In general, as a futures contract approaches its expiration date, its price moves towards the spot price. In a contango market, assuming the spot price does not change, this results in the futures contract price decreasing and a negative implied roll yield. The opposite is true in a backwardation market. By evaluating each of the available contracts and roll to the contract that has the best implied, annualized roll yield, the Optimum YieldTM strategy seeks to maximize the gains from rolling in backwardation markets and minimize the losses from rolling in contango markets. Click here to learn more about Optimum YieldTM. Why is the Deutsche Bank Optimum Yield[TM] strategy valuable to ETN investors? When markets are in contango, returns of traditional commodity ETNs will be adversely affected by the negative roll yields. The long and double long commodity ETNs employs Deutsche Bank's proprietary Optimum YieldTM (OY) strategy, which is designed to maximize the positive roll yields in backwardation markets and minimize the negative roll yields in contango markets.

In determining our tax reporting responsibilities, if any, with respect to the ETNs, we expect to treat them for U.S. federal income tax purposes as prepaid financial contracts that are not debt. If this treatment is respected, subject to any special considerations described in the relevant pricing supplement, (i) you should not recognize taxable income or loss prior to the taxable disposition of your Deutsche X-trackers ETNs (including at maturity or upon early redemption), (ii) in the case of equity-linked or commodity-linked ETNs, your gain or loss on the ETNs should be capital gain or loss, and (iii) 1099s, not K-1s, will be the tax reporting forms received. However, significant aspects of the tax treatment of the ETNs are uncertain. If the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") were successful in asserting an alternative treatment for the ETNs, the tax consequences of ownership and disposition of the ETNs could differ materially and adversely from those described briefly above. In addition, in 2007 the U.S. Treasury Department and the IRS released a notice requesting comments on the tax treatment of "prepaid forward contracts" and similar instruments. Any resulting guidance could materially and adversely affect the tax consequences of an investment in the ETNs, possibly with retroactive effect.

Page 4 of 4 The ETNs are senior unsecured obligations of Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch, and the amount due on the ETNs is dependent on Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch's ability to pay. The ETNs are riskier than ordinary unsecured debt securities and have no principal protection. Each ETN offers investors exposure to the month-over-month performance of its respective index measured from the first calendar day to the last calendar day of each month. The inverse or leveraged ETNs may not be suitable for investors seeking an investment with a term greater than the time remaining to the next monthly reset date and should be used only by knowledgeable investors who understand the potential adverse consequences of seeking longer-term inverse and/or leveraged investment results by means of securities that reset their exposure monthly, resulting in the compounding of monthly returns. Investing in the ETNs is not equivalent to a direct investment in the index or index components. The principal amount is also subject to the monthly application of the investor fee, which can adversely affect returns. There is no guarantee that you will receive at maturity, or upon an earlier repurchase, your initial investment back or any return on that investment. Significant adverse monthly performances for your securities may not be offset by any beneficial monthly performances. If at any time the repurchase value of the ETNs is zero, the relevant ETNs will be accelerated and you will lose your entire investment in such ETNs. As described in the relevant pricing supplement, Deutsche Bank may redeem the ETNs for an amount in cash equal to the repurchase value. Risks of investing in the ETNs include limited portfolio diversification, uncertain principal repayment, trade price fluctuations, illiquidity and leveraged losses. The leveraged ETNs are leveraged investments. As such, it is likely to be more volatile than an unleveraged investment. There is also a greater risk of loss of principal associated with a leveraged investment than with an unleveraged investment. The ETNs may be sold throughout the day on NYSE Arca through any brokerage account. Ordinary brokerage commissions apply. Sales in the secondary market may result in losses. There are restrictions on the minimum number of ETNs that you may redeem directly with Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch, as specified in the applicable pricing supplement. The ETNs provide concentrated exposure to notional positions in commodity futures contracts. The market value of the ETNs may be influenced by many unpredictable factors, including, among other things, volatile prices, changes in supply and demand relationships, changes in interest rates, and monetary and other governmental actions. An Investment in the ETNs involves risks, including the loss of some or all of the principal amount. For a description of the main risks, see "Risk Factors" in the applicable pricing supplement and the accompanying prospectus supplement and prospectus. An investor should consider the ETNs' investment objective, risks, charges and expenses carefully before investing. Depending on market demand, Deutsche Bank AG may create and issue additional ETNs that may be offered and sold from time to time in amounts to be determined solely by Deutsche Bank AG. However, Deutsche Bank AG is under no obligation to sell additional ETNs at any time, and if Deutsche Bank AG does sell additional ETNs, Deutsche Bank AG may limit such sales and stop selling additional ETNs at any time.

An ETN is a senior, unsecured, unsubordinated debt security issued by a financial institution that can be bought and sold on an exchange. Unlike traditional debt securities, ETNs do not guarantee investors any return of principal. Instead, the returns of ETNs are based on the performance, whether negative or positive, of an underlying index that provides exposure to one or more underlying asset classes, including commodity, currency, equity and fixed income assets. In addition, investors in ETNs have no ownership interest in the underlying assets and are subject to the credit risk of the issuer. What risks are associated with ETNs? Unlike traditional debt securities, the principal of ETNs is not protected. Returns of ETNs will be positively affected by any favorable performance and negatively affected by any adverse performance of the underlying index. For leveraged ETNs, any gain or loss related to the underlying index will be amplified. ETN investors are also exposed to issuer credit risk. As a result, the issuer's actual and perceived creditworthiness will affect the market value of the ETNs, and in the event the issuer were to default on its payment obligations, investors may not receive any amount owed to them under the terms of the ETNs. Investors in ETNs have no recourse to any underlying assets. Do the ETNs replicate a direct investment in the underlying index? Investing in the ETNs is not equivalent to a direct investment in the underlying index or index components. Investors have no recourse to any underlying assets and the principal amount 2/25/2015 |
Page 2 of 5 (the amount you invested) is also subject to the applicable investor fees, which can adversely affect returns. What are Leveraged ETNs? Leveraged ETNs are designed to amplify returns related to an underlying index, whether positive or negative. Leveraged ETNs typically attempt to provide double or triple returns of an underlying index over a predetermined period of time, usually daily or monthly. The current principal amount is reset each day or month to ensure that a consistent degree of leverage is applied to any performance of the underlying index. If the current principal amount is reduced by a negative daily or monthly performance, any further negative daily or monthly performance will lead to a smaller loss when applied to that reduced current principal amount. However, if the current principal amount increases, the loss for a certain level of negative daily or monthly performance will increase correspondingly. Resetting the current principal amount also means that any gain from a positive daily or monthly performance will be contingent upon the current principal amount. The leverage feature and the daily or monthly reset of the principal amount will cause the performance of the ETNs to differ significantly from the point-to-point performance of the underlying index. Leveraged ETNs may not be suitable for all investors. What makes Deutsche Bank's Leveraged ETNs different from other Leveraged ETPs? Deutsche Bank offers a number of leveraged ETNs, the returns of which are reset on a monthly basis, as compared to other leveraged ETNs in the market that reset on a daily basis. ETNs reset on a daily basis are typically designed to achieve their stated objectives on a daily basis. Due to the effects of the leverage feature and the daily reset of the principal amount, the performance of leveraged ETNs over longer periods of time can differ significantly from the point-to-point performance of the underlying index. Deutsche Bank ETNs offer investors exposure to the month-over-month performance of its respective underlying index measured from the first calendar day to the last calendar day of each month. While Deutsche Bank's monthly reset ETNs lessen the deviation to the underlying index to certain degree, they may not be suitable for investors seeking an investment with a term greater than the time remaining to the next monthly reset date, and should be used only by knowledgeable investors who understand the potential adverse consequences of seeking longer-term leveraged investment results by means of securities that reset their exposure monthly. How do I buy and sell ETNs? ETNs are traded on an exchange. Investors can buy or sell ETNs through their broker on a U.S. securities exchange during market hours. Is a net asset value (NAV) calculated for ETNs? Because ETNs are securities and investors don't have an ownership stake in any underlying assets, they do not have a NAV like ETFs. For ETNs, the intraday indicative value (which 2/25/2015 |
Page 3 of 5 approximates the intrinsic economic value of each ETN) is published every 15 seconds during the trading sessions and the repurchase value (at which the issuer will repurchase the ETNs) is published at the end of each trading day on the issuer's website or on third party publication sources including Bloomberg and Reuters. Who is the issuer for the DB ETNs? The DB ETNs are issued by Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch and are subject to the credit risk of Deutsche Bank AG. For more information about Deutsche Bank AG, you can review Deutsche Bank's annual report on Form 20-F and Interim Reports on Form 6-K at www.sec.gov. Do the DB ETNs pay interest and dividends? These ETNs do not pay any interest or dividends. What are the advantages of the DB ETNs? Deutsche Bank offers a broad range of ETNs that provide investors a flexible and cost effective way to gain long or short, unleveraged or leveraged exposure to commodity, currency or fixed income assets. For investors who are looking to gain leveraged exposure, the DB ETNs reset the principal amount monthly, rather than daily like many ETNs in the market. For investors seeking to add commodities to their portfolio without the hassle of receiving a Form K-1, the commodity ETN's offer investors an alternative that reports on Form 1099. What is the Deutsche Bank Optimum Yield[TM] strategy? A number of commodity ETNs employs Deutsche Bank's proprietary Optimum YieldTM (OY) strategy, which is an innovative methodology designed to address negative roll yields in contango markets. In general, as a futures contract approaches its expiration date, its price moves towards the spot price. In a contango market, assuming the spot price does not change, this results in the futures contract price decreasing and a negative implied roll yield. The opposite is true in a backwardation market. By evaluating each of the available contracts and roll to the contract that has the best implied, annualized roll yield, the Optimum YieldTM strategy seeks to maximize the gains from rolling in backwardation markets and minimize the losses from rolling in contango markets.

In determining our tax reporting responsibilities, if any, with respect to the ETNs, we expect to treat them for U.S. federal income tax purposes as prepaid financial contracts that are not debt. If this treatment is respected, subject to any special considerations described in the relevant pricing supplement, (i) you should not recognize taxable income or loss prior to the taxable disposition of your Deutsche X-trackers ETNs (including at maturity or upon early redemption), (ii) in the case of equity-linked or commodity-linked ETNs, your gain or loss on the ETNs should be capital gain or loss, and (iii) 1099s, not K-1s, will be the tax reporting forms received. However, significant aspects of the tax treatment of the ETNs are uncertain. If the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") were successful in asserting an alternative treatment for the ETNs, the tax consequences of ownership and disposition of the ETNs could differ materially and adversely from those described briefly above. In addition, in 2007 the U.S. Treasury Department and the IRS released a notice requesting comments on the tax treatment of "prepaid forward contracts" and similar instruments. Any resulting guidance could materially and adversely affect the tax consequences of an investment in the ETNs, possibly with retroactive effect.

The ETNs are senior unsecured obligations of Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch, and the amount due on the ETNs is dependent on Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch's ability to pay. The ETNs are riskier than ordinary unsecured debt securities and have no principal protection. Each ETN offers investors exposure to the month-over-month performance of its respective index measured from the first calendar day to the last calendar day of each month. The inverse or leveraged ETNs may not be suitable for investors seeking an investment with a term greater than the time remaining to the next monthly reset date and should be used only by knowledgeable investors who understand the potential adverse consequences of seeking longer-term inverse and/or leveraged investment results by means of securities that reset their exposure monthly, resulting in the compounding of monthly returns. Investing in the ETNs is not equivalent to a direct investment in the index or index components. The principal amount is also subject to the monthly application of the investor fee, which can adversely affect returns. There is no guarantee that you will receive at maturity, or upon an earlier repurchase, your initial investment back or any return on that investment. Significant adverse monthly performances for your securities may not be offset by any beneficial monthly performances. If at any time the repurchase value of the ETNs is zero, the relevant ETNs will be accelerated and you will lose your entire investment in such ETNs. As described in the relevant pricing supplement, Deutsche Bank may redeem the ETNs for an amount in cash equal to the repurchase value. Risks of investing in the ETNs include limited portfolio diversification, uncertain principal repayment, trade price fluctuations, illiquidity and leveraged losses. The leveraged ETNs are leveraged investments. As such, it is likely to be more volatile than an unleveraged investment. There is also a greater risk of loss of principal associated with a leveraged investment than with an unleveraged investment. The ETNs may be sold throughout the day on NYSE Arca through any brokerage account. Ordinary brokerage commissions apply. Sales in the secondary market may result in losses. There are restrictions on the minimum number of ETNs that you may redeem directly with Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch, as specified in the applicable pricing supplement. The ETNs provide concentrated exposure to notional positions in commodity futures contracts. The market value of the ETNs may be influenced by many unpredictable factors, including, among other things, volatile prices, changes in supply and demand relationships, changes in interest rates, and monetary and other governmental actions. An Investment in the ETNs involves risks, including the loss of some or all of the principal amount. For a description of the main risks, see "Risk Factors" in the applicable pricing supplement and the accompanying prospectus supplement and prospectus. An investor should consider the ETNs' investment objective, risks, charges and expenses carefully before investing. Depending on market demand, Deutsche Bank AG may create and issue additional ETNs that may be offered and sold from time to time in amounts to be determined solely by Deutsche Bank AG. However, Deutsche Bank AG is under no obligation to sell additional ETNs at any time, and if Deutsche Bank AG does sell additional ETNs, Deutsche Bank AG may limit such sales and stop selling additional ETNs at any time. If Deutsche Bank AG suspends the issuance of additional ETNs, the price and liquidity of such ETNs in the secondary market could be materially and adversely affected. 2/25/2015 |
