PowerShares DB Agriculture ETN performance. The inception date of the Deutsche
Bank Liquid Commodity Index - Optimum Yield Agriculture(TM) is July 12, 2006.
Index history is based on a combination of the monthly returns from the Deutsche

"Agriculture 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
PowerShares DB Agriculture ETNs, less the investor fee. The Agriculture Index is
intended to reflect changes in the market value of certain agriculture futures
contracts on corn, wheat, soybeans and sugar. The T-Bill Index is intended to
approximate the returns from investing in 3-month United States Treasury bills
on a rolling basis.

The PowerShares DB Agriculture ETNs are not suitable for all investors and
should be utilized only by sophisticated investors who understand leverage risk
and the consequences of seeking monthly leveraged investment results, and who
intend to actively monitor and manage their investments. Investing in the ETNs
is not equivalent to a direct investment in the index or index components
because the current principal amount (the amount you invested) is reset each
month, resulting in the compounding of monthly returns. The principal amount is
also subject to the investor fee, which can adversely affect returns. The amount
you receive at maturity (or upon an earlier repurchase) will be contingent upon
each monthly performance of the index during the term of the securities. 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 securities may not be offset
by any beneficial monthly performances.

The PowerShares DB Agriculture ETNs are senior unsecured obligations of Deutsche
Bank AG, London Branch, and the amount due on the PowerShares DB Agriculture
ETNs is dependent on Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch's ability to pay. The
PowerShares DB Agriculture ETNs are riskier than ordinary unsecured debt
securities and have no principal protection. Risks of investing in the
PowerShares DB Agriculture ETNs include limited portfolio diversification,
uncertain principal repayment, trade price fluctuations, illiquidity and
leveraged losses. Investing in the PowerShares DB Agriculture ETNs is not
equivalent to a direct investment in the index or index components. The investor
fee will reduce the amount of your return at maturity or upon redemption of your
PowerShares DB Agriculture ETNs even if the value of the relevant index has
increased. If at any time the redemption value of the PowerShares DB Agriculture
ETNs is zero, your investment will expire worthless.

The PowerShares DB Agriculture ETNs may be sold throughout the day on NYSE Arca
through any brokerage account. There are restrictions on the minimum number of
PowerShares DB Agriculture 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 PowerShares DB Agriculture ETNs. Sales in
the secondary market may result in losses.

The PowerShares DB Agriculture ETNs are concentrated in agriculture commodity
futures contracts. The market value of the PowerShares DB Agriculture ETNs may
be influenced by many unpredictable factors, including, among other things,
volatile agriculture prices, changes in supply and demand relationships, changes
in interest rates, and monetary and other governmental actions. The PowerShares
DB Agriculture ETNs are concentrated in a single commodity sector, are
speculative and generally will exhibit higher volatility than commodity products
linked to more than one commodity sector.

The PowerShares DB Agriculture Double Long ETN and PowerShares DB Agriculture
Double Short ETN are both 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.

Management LLC. Invesco PowerShares Capital Management LLC is an indirect,

PowerShares DB Agriculture ETNs' investment objectives, risks, charges and
expenses carefully before investing.

An investment in the PowerShares DB Agriculture ETNs involves risks, including
possible loss of principal. For a description of the main risks, see "Risk
Factors" in the applicable pricing supplement.
