EXPLANATORY NOTE
     This Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 relates to the Registration Statement on Form S-8 (File No. 333-168335) (the “Registration Statement”) of Deutsche Bank Aktiengesellschaft (the “Registrant”), which was filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on July 27, 2010. The Registration Statement registered 20,000,000 ordinary shares, no par value, of the Registrant’s stock (“Shares”), to be offered pursuant to the Deutsche Bank Equity Plan (the “Plan”).

Under the GSPP, Shares will be offered to certain employees, subject to the satisfaction of applicable vesting conditions, in connection with those employees’ own purchase of Shares. 1,000,000 of the Shares registered in the Registration Statement will be used in connection with the GSPP for U.S. employees in respect of both the Shares purchased by employees through the GSPP and the Shares awarded to those employees in connection with those purchases.
