1 Index history is for illustrative purposes only and does not represent actual
PowerShares DB Agriculture ETN performance. The inception date of the Deutsche
Bank Liquid Commodity Index - Optimum Yield Agriculture(TM) is July 12, 2006.

"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 refl ect 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.
Index history does not refl ect any transaction costs or expenses. Indexes are

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.
Signifi cant adverse monthly performances for your securities may not be offset
by any benefi cial monthly performances.

Long, Short, and Leveraged exposure to commodities has never been easier.SM

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 diversifi cation,
uncertain principal repayment, trade price fl uctuations, 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 specifi ed 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 infl uenced 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. PowerShares(R) is a registered trademark of Invesco
