PowerShares DB Italian Treasury Bond Futures ETN
PowerShares DB 3x Italian Treasury Bond Futures ETN
What are the PowerShares DB BTP 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 BTP
Futures Index.
The DB USD BTP Futures Index is intended to measure the performance of a long
position in Euro-BTP Futures. The underlying assets of Euro-BTP Futures are
Republic of Italy-government issues debt securities ("BTPs") with an original
term of no longer than 16 years and a remaining term to maturity of not less
than 8 years and 6 months and not more than 11 years as of the futures contract
delivery date. The returns of each ETN are obtained by combining the returns
from the relevant futures index plus 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 BTP Futures ETNs and the 3x BTP 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-BTP
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 Italy.
The 3x BTP 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.
