PowerShares DB Italian Treasury Bond Futures ETN
[GRAPHIC OMITTED]
Description
The PowerShares DB 3x Italian Treasury Bond Futures Exchange Traded Notes
(Symbol: ITLT) and the PowerShares DB Italian Treasury Bond Futures Exchange
Traded Notes (Symbol: ITLY), (collectively, the "PowerShares DB BTP Futures
ETNs," or the "ETNs") are the first exchange- traded products to provide
investors with leveraged or unleveraged exposure to the U.S. dollar value of the
returns of an Italian bond futures index.
The PowerShares DB BTP Futures ETNs are based on the DB USD BTP Futures Index
(the "BTP Futures Index"), which is intended to measure the performance of a
long position in Euro-BTP Futures.
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.

prospectus for more complete information. ETN Performance is based on a
combination of three times the monthly returns, for the 3x BTP Futures ETNs, or
the monthly returns, for the BTP Futures ETNs, from the BTP Futures 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 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.

[GRAPHIC OMITTED] Index history is for illustrative purposes only and does not represent actual PowerShares DB BTP Futures ETN performance. The inception date of the BTP Futures Index is September 20, 2010. Index history does not reflect any transaction costs or expenses. Indexes are unmanaged, and you cannot invest directly in an index. PAST PERFORMANCE DOES NOT GUARANTEE FUTURE RESULTS. Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch has filed a registration statement (including a prospectus) with the SEC for the offering to which this communication relates. 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 | dbfunds. db.com/notes 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: 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 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. 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, uncertain principal repayment, 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 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 U.S. or Italy. The 3x BTP Futures ETNs are 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.

An investor should consider the ETNs' investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses carefully before investing. 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.
