PowerShares DB German Bund Futures ETN
PowerShares DB 3x German Bund Futures ETN
What are the PowerShares DB German Bund Futures ETNs?
The ETNs are senior unsecured obligations issued by Deutsche Bank AG, London
Branch that are linked to the month-over-month performance of the DB USD Bund
Futures Index.
The DB USD Bund Futures Index is intended to measure the performance of a long
position in Euro-Bund Futures. The underlying assets of Euro-Bund Futures are
Federal Republic of Germany- government issued debt securities ("Bunds") with a
remaining term to maturity of not less than 8 years and 6 months and not more
than 10 years and 6 months as of the futures contract delivery date. The
returns of each ETN are obtained by combining the returns of the relevant
futures index with the returns of the TBill index, less investor fees.
Investors can buy and sell the ETNs 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. The issuer has the right to redeem the ETNs at
the repurchase value at any time.
Investors may redeem the ETNs in blocks of no less than 50,000 securities and
multiples of 50,000 securities thereafter, subject to the procedures described
in the pricing supplement. Redemptions may include a fee of up to $0.03 per
security.

Important Risk Considerations:
Each security 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 and the amount you receive at maturity (or upon an earlier
repurchase) will be contingent upon each monthly performance of the respective
Index during the term of the ETNs. The German Bund Futures ETNs and the 3x
German Bund Futures 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 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 ETNs may not be offset by any beneficial monthly performances.
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.
Risks of investing in the ETNs include limited portfolio diversification, full
principal at risk, trade price fluctuations, illiquidity and leveraged losses.
The investor fee will reduce the amount of your return at maturity or upon
redemption of your ETNs even if the value of the relevant index has increased.
If at any time the repurchase value of the ETNs is zero, your Investment will
expire worthless. As described in the pricing supplement, Deutsche Bank may
redeem the ETNs for an amount in cash equal to the repurchase value.
The ETNs may be sold throughout the day on NYSE Arca through any brokerage
account. 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. Ordinary brokerage commissions apply, and there
are tax consequences in the event of sale, redemption or maturity of the ETNs.
Sales in the secondary market may result in losses.
The ETNs provide concentrated exposure to notional positions in Euro-Bund
futures contracts. The market value of the ETNs may be influenced by many
unpredictable factors, including, among other things, changes in supply and
demand relationships,
changes in interest rates, and monetary and other governmental actions, each in
the US or Germany.
The 3x German Bund Futures ETN is a leveraged investment. 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.
