(1) ETN repurchase value performance figures reflect repurchase value,
which would require investors to have a minimum number of shares (found in
pricing supplement and the following page). Repurchase value is the current
principal amount x applicable index factor x fee factor. See the prospectus for
more complete information. Investors holding less than the minimum number of
shares required to effect a repurchase would have to sell their shares at
prevailing market prices, which may be at a discount to the repurchase value.
See "ETN Market Price" in this table. Index history is for illustrative
purposes only and does not represent actual PowerShares DB Base Metals ETN
performance. The inception date of the Deutsche Bank Liquid Commodity Index --
Optimum Yield Industrial Metals[] is July 12, 2006. ETN repurchase value is
based on a combination of the monthly returns or inverse monthly returns for
the Base Metals Long ETNs and Base Metals Short ETNs, respectively, or two
times the monthly returns or inverse monthly returns for the Base Metals Double
Long ETNs and Base Metals Double Short ETNs, respectively, from the Deutsche
Bank Liquid Commodity Index -- Optimum Yield Industrial Metals Excess Return[]
(the "Base Metals Index") plus the monthly returns from the DB 3-Month T-Bill
Index (the "T-Bill Index"), resetting monthly as per the formula applied to the
PowerShares DB Base Metals ETNs, less the investor fee. The T-Bill Index is
intended to approximate the returns from investing in 3-month United States
Treasury bills on a rolling basis.
(2) ETN market price performance is calculated using the change in the
bid/ask midpoint at 4 p.m. ET expressed as a percentage change from the
beginning to the end of the specified time period.
Index performance does not reflect any transaction costs or expenses. Indexes
are unmanaged, and you cannot invest directly in an index.
(3) The SandP 500([R]) Index is an unmanaged index used as a measurement of
change in stock market conditions based on the performance of a specified group
of common stocks. The Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index(TM) is an unmanaged
index considered representative of the US investment-grade, fixed-rate bond
market.

Investors can buy and sell the PowerShares DB Base Metals ETNs at market price on the NYSE Arca exchange or receive a cash payment at the scheduled maturity or early redemption based on the performance of the index less investor fees. Investors may redeem the PowerShares DB Base Metals ETNs in blocks of no less than 5,000 securities and integral multiples of 5,000 securities thereafter, subject to the procedures described in the pricing supplement, which may include a fee of up to $0.03 per security.

Before you invest, you should read the prospectus and other documents filed by Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch for more complete information about the issuer and this offering. You may get these documents for free by visiting powersharesetns.com | www.dbxus.com or EDGAR on the SEC website at www.sec.gov. Alternatively, you may request a prospectus by calling 800 983 0903 | 877 369 4617, or you may request a copy from any dealer participating in this offering. Important Risk Considerations: The PowerShares DB Base Metals 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 or leveraged investment results by means of securities that reset their exposure monthly. Investing in the ETNs is not equivalent to a direct investment in the index or index components because the current principal amount (the amount you invested) is reset each month, resulting in the compounding of monthly returns. The principal amount is also subject to the investor fee, which can adversely affect returns. The amount you receive at maturity (or upon an earlier repurchase) will be contingent upon each monthly performance of the index during the term of the securities. 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. The PowerShares DB Base Metals ETNs are senior unsecured obligations of Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch, and the amount due on the PowerShares Base Metals ETNs is entirely dependent on Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch's ability to pay. The PowerShares Base Metals ETNs are riskier than ordinary unsecured debt securities and have no principal protection. Risks of investing in the PowerShares DB Base Metals ETNs include limited portfolio diversification, full principal at risk, trade price fluctuations, illiquidity and leveraged losses. Investing in the PowerShares DB Base Metals ETNs is not equivalent to a direct investment in the index or index components. The investor fee will reduce the amount of your return at maturity or upon redemption of your PowerShares DB Base Metals ETNs even if the value of the relevant index has increased. If at any time the repurchase value of the PowerShares DB Base Metals ETNs is zero, your investment will expire worthless. Deutsche Bank may accelerate the PowerShares DB Base Metals ETNs upon a regulatory event affecting the ability to hedge the PowerShares DB Base Metals ETNs. The PowerShares DB Base Metals ETNs may be sold throughout the day on NYSE Arca through any brokerage account. There are restrictions on the minimum number of PowerShares DB Base Metals ETNs that you may redeem directly with Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch, as specified in the applicable pricing supplement. Ordinary brokerage commissions apply, and there are tax consequences in the event of sale, redemption or maturity of the PowerShares DB Base Metals ETNs. Sales in the secondary market may result in losses. The PowerShares DB Base Metals ETNs provide concentrated exposure to notional positions in aluminum, copper and zinc futures contracts. The market value of the PowerShares DB Base Metals ETNs may be influenced by many unpredictable factors, including, among other things, volatile base metal prices, changes in supply and demand relationships, changes in interest rates, and monetary and other governmental actions. Because the ETNs provide concentrated exposure to notional positions in futures contracts of a single commodity sector, they are speculative and generally will exhibit higher volatility than commodity products linked to more than one commodity sector. The PowerShares DB Base Metals Double Long ETN and PowerShares DB Base Metals Double Short ETN are both leveraged investments. As such, they are 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.
