Selected Risk Factors

  MARKET RISK — The return on the securities at maturity, if any, is linked to the performance of the Basket Components and will depend on whether the Basket Level ever exceeds the Upper Barrier on any trading day during the Observation Period, the magnitude of the Basket Return, and if any decline in the Basket Level exceeds the Buffer Amount.   THE SECURITIES MAY PAY LESS THAN THE PRINCIPAL AMOUNT - You may receive a lower payment at maturity than you would have received if you had invested in the Basket Components, the component stocks underlying the Basket Components or contracts related to the Basket Components. If the Basket Level exceeds the Upper Barrier on any trading day during the Observation Period, the Ending Basket Level is less than the Initial Basket Level, and the Basket Level decrease is greater than the Buffer Amount at maturity, the securities will not guarantee any return in excess of a payment of $250.00 per $1,000 security face amount. If the Basket Level does not exceed the Upper Barrier on any trading day during the Observation Period, the Ending Basket Level is less than the Initial Basket Level, and the Basket Level decrease is greater than the Buffer Amount, the securities will not guarantee any return in excess of $150.00 per $1,000 security face amount.   THE BARRIER FEATURE WILL LIMIT YOUR RETURN ON THE SECURITIES AND MAY AFFECT YOUR PAYMENT AT MATURITY - Your investment in the securities may not perform as well as an investment in a security with an uncapped return based solely on the performance of the Basket Components.   NO INTEREST OR DIVIDEND PAYMENTS OR VOTING RIGHTS - As a holder of the securities, you will not receive interest payments, and you will not have voting rights or rights to receive cash dividends or other distributions or other rights that holders of the component stocks underlying the Basket Components would have.   CERTAIN BUILT-IN COSTS ARE LIKELY TO ADVERSELY AFFECT THE VALUE OF THE SECURITIES PRIOR TO MATURITY - Certain built-in costs, such as our estimated cost of hedging, are likely to adversely affect the value of the securities prior to maturity. You should be willing and able to hold your securities tomaturity.   OUR RESEARCH, OPINIONS OR RECOMMENDATIONS COULD AFFECT THE LEVEL OF THE BASKET COMPONENTS OR THE MARKET VALUE OF THE SECURITIES - We and our affiliates and agents may publish research, express opinions or provide recommendations that are inconsistent with investing in or holding the securities. Any such research, opinions or recommendations could affect the level of the Basket Components or the market value of the securities.   COUNTERPARTY RISK - The payment of amounts owed to you under the securities is subject to the Issuer’s ability to pay. Consequently, you are subject to counterparty risk and are susceptible to risks relating to the creditworthiness of Deutsche Bank AG.   POTENTIAL CONFLICTS - We and our affiliates play a variety of roles in connection with the issuance of the securities, including acting as calculation agent and hedging our obligations under the securities. In performing duties, the economic interests of the calculation agent and other affiliates of ours are potentially adverse to your interests as an investor in the securities.   LACK OF LIQUIDITY - The securities will not be listed on any securities exchange.     NON-U.S. SECURITIES MARKETS RISKS - The stocks included in the index replicated by the iShares® MSCI EAFE®Index Fund are issued by foreign companies in foreign securities. These stocks may be more volatile than domestic stocks and may be subject to different political, market, economic, exchange rate, regulatory and other risks.   MANY ECONOMIC AND MARKET FACTORS WILL IMPACT THE VALUE OF THE SECURITIES - In addition to the Basket Level on any day, the value of the securities will be affected by a number of complex and interrelated economic and market factors that may either offset or magnify each other.   CHANGES IN THE VALUE OF THE BASKET COMPONENTS MAY OFFSET EACH OTHER - Price movements in the Basket Components may not correlate with each other. Therefore, in calculating the Basket Return, increases in the level of one or more of the Basket Components may be moderated, offset or more than offset by lesser increases or declines in the levels of the other Basket Components.   CURRENCY MARKETS MAY BE HIGHLY VOLATILE - The securities are subject to currency exchange risk through their exposure to the performance of the iShares® MSCI EAFE®Index Fund, which measures the performance of foreign stocks that are then converted into U.S. dollars. Currency markets may be highly volatile, particularly in relation to emerging or developing nations’ currencies, and, in certain market conditions, also in relation to developed nations’ currencies.   THE U.S. TAX CONSEQUENCES OF AN INVESTMENT IN THE SECURITIES ARE UNCLEAR - Significant aspects of the U.S. federal income tax treatment of the securities are uncertain, and no assurance can be given that the Internal Revenue Service will accept, or a court will uphold, the tax consequences described in the accompanying term sheet.   See “Selected Risk Considerations” in the accompanying term sheet and “Risk Factors” in the accompanying product supplement for additional information.   Deutsche Bank AG has filed a registration statement (including a prospectus) with the Securities and Exchange Commission, or SEC, for the offering to which this fact sheet relates.
