Invesco PowerShares Capital Management LLC (“Invesco”) is the managing owner of the PowerShares DB Multi-Sector Commodity Trust (the “Trust”), which is organized in seven separate series. Each of PowerShares DB Energy Fund, PowerShares DB Oil Fund, PowerShares DB Precious Metals Fund, PowerShares DB Gold Fund, PowerShares DB Silver Fund, PowerShares DB Base Metals Fund and PowerShares DB Agriculture Fund (each a “Fund”) is a separate series of the Trust.

On February 25, 2015, Invesco announced that it had temporarily suspended the ability of Authorized Participants to purchase new Creation Baskets in the Funds, in connection with the transition to Invesco as managing owner of the Funds. Effective February 26, 2015, Invesco has resumed accepting orders for Authorized Participants to purchase new Creation Baskets in the Funds.

It is possible that the market value of the Funds’ shares may be affected by the resumption of issuances of shares of the Funds, and the market value may be higher or lower than the intraday indicative value of the shares.
