Hypothetical Examples of Amounts Payable at Maturity
 
The following hypothetical examples illustrate how the returns set forth in the table above are calculated.
 
Example 1: The level of the Basket increases from the Initial Basket Level of 100 to the Final Basket level of 110. Because the Final Basket Level is greater than the Initial Basket Level, the investor receives a Payment at Maturity of $1,105.00 per $1,000 Principal Amount of notes, calculated as follows:
 
Payment at Maturity = $1,000 + Additional Amount
$1,000 + ($1,000 x [Basket Return x Participation Rate])
$1,000 + ($1,000 x [10% x 105.00%]) = $1,105.00
 
Example 2: The Final Basket Level is equal to the Initial Basket Level of 100. Because the Final Basket Level is the same as the Initial Basket Level, the Basket Return is 0% and the Additional Amount is $0. Accordingly, the investor receives a Payment at Maturity of $1,000.00 per $1,000 Principal Amount of notes.
 
Example 3: The level of the Basket decreases from the Initial Basket Level of 100 to the Final Basket level of 80. Because the Final Basket Level is less than the Initial Basket Level, the Basket Return is -20% and the Additional Amount is equal to $0. The investor receives a Payment at Maturity of $1,000.00 per $1,000 Principal Amount of notes.
 
TS-2

 
Selected Purchase Considerations
 
 
PRESERVATION OF CAPITAL AT MATURITY – You will be entitled to receive at least 100% of the Principal Amount of your notes provided that you hold the notes to maturity, regardless of the performance of the Basket. Because the notes are our senior unsecured obligations, payment of any amount at maturity, including any principal protection, is subject to our ability to pay our obligations as they become due.
 
 
RETURN LINKED TO THE PERFORMANCE OF A WEIGHTED BASKET OF COMPONENTS – The return on the notes is linked to a basket consisting of the CPI, the S&P 500® Index, and the DJUBS IndexSM.
 
Consumer Price Index (“CPI”)
 
The Consumer Price Index (“CPI”) is the non-seasonally adjusted U.S. City Average All Items Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers, published monthly by the Bureau of Labor Statistics (“BLS”) and reported on Bloomberg page CPURNSA or any successor service or page. The CPI for a particular month is published during the following month.
 
The CPI is a measure of the average change in consumer prices over time for a fixed market basket of goods and services, which includes food, clothing, shelter, fuels, transportation, charges for medical and dental services, and drugs. In calculating the CPI, price changes for the various items are averaged together with weights that are meant to represent their relative importance in the spending of urban households in the United States. The contents of the market basket of goods and services and the weights assigned to the various items are updated periodically by the BLS to take into account changes in consumer expenditure patterns. The CPI is expressed in relative terms in relation to a time base reference period for which the level is set at 100.0. The base reference period for CPI is the 1982-1984 average.
 
We have derived all information contained in this term sheet regarding the CPI, including, without limitation, its make-up, method of calculation and changes in its components, from publicly available information, and we have not participated in the preparation of, or verified, such publicly available information. Such information reflects the policies of, and is subject to change by, the BLS.
 
The S&P 500® Index
 
The S&P 500® Index is intended to provide a performance benchmark for the U.S. equity markets. The calculation of the level of the S&P 500® Index is based on the relative value of the aggregate market value of the common stocks of 500 companies as of a particular time as compared to the aggregate average market value of the common stocks of 500 similar companies during the base period of the years 1941 through 1943. This is just a summary of the S&P 500® Index. For more information on the S&P 500® Index, including information concerning its composition, calculation methodology and adjustment policy, please see the section entitled “The S&P Indices – The S&P 500 Index” in the accompanying underlying supplement No. 1 dated September 29, 2009.
 
The DJUBS IndexSM (“DJUBS Index”)
 
The Dow Jones–UBS Commodity IndexSM is composed of futures contracts on 19 physical commodities and is designed to be a benchmark for commodities as an asset class. Its component weightings are determined primarily based on liquidity data, or the relative amount of trading activity of a particular commodity, and dollar-adjusted production data. The component weightings are also determined by rules designed to insure diversified commodity exposure. See “The Dow Jones–UBS Commodity IndexSM” in this term sheet for more information.
 
 
A COMMODITY HEDGING DISRUPTION EVENT MAY RESULT IN ACCELERATION OF THE NOTES – If a commodity hedging disruption event (as defined in the accompanying product supplement) occurs, we will have the right, but not the obligation, to accelerate the payment on the notes. The amount due and payable per $1,000 Principal Amount of notes upon such early acceleration will be determined by the calculation agent in good faith in a commercially reasonable manner on the date on which we deliver notice of such acceleration and will be payable on the fifth business day following the day on which the calculation agent delivers notice of such acceleration. Please see the risk factor entitled “Commodity Futures Contracts are Subject to Uncertain Legal and Regulatory Regimes, Which May Result in a Hedging Disruption Event” in the accompanying product supplement for more information.
 
 
TAXED AS CONTINGENT PAYMENT DEBT INSTRUMENTS You should review carefully the section in the accompanying product supplement entitled “U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences.” The notes will be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as “contingent payment debt instruments.” Regardless of your method of accounting, you will be required to accrue interest in each year on a constant yield to maturity basis at the “comparable yield,” as determined by us, although we will not make any
 
TS-3

 
payment on the notes until maturity. Any income recognized upon a sale, exchange or retirement of the notes generally will be treated as interest income for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
 
We will determine the comparable yield for the notes and will provide that comparable yield, and the related projected payment schedule, in the final pricing supplement for the notes, which we will file with the SEC. Neither the comparable yield nor the projected payment schedule constitutes a representation by us regarding the actual amount in excess of your principal, if any, that we will pay on the notes.
 
Under current law, the United Kingdom will not impose withholding tax on payments made with respect to the notes.  
 
For a discussion of certain German tax considerations relating to the notes, you should refer to the section in the accompanying prospectus supplement entitled “Taxation by Germany of Non-Resident Holders.” 

We do not provide any advice on tax matters. You should consult your tax adviser regarding all aspects of the U.S. federal tax consequences of an investment in the notes, as well as tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, local or non-U.S. taxing jurisdiction.
 
TS-4

 
Selected Risk Considerations
 
An investment in the notes involves significant risks. Investing in the notes is not equivalent to investing directly in the Basket or the Basket Components or any of the components underlying the Basket Components. You should consider carefully the following discussion of risks together with the risk factors contained in the accompanying product supplement, prospectus supplement and prospectus before you decide that an investment in the notes is suitable for you.
 
Risks Relating to the Notes
 
 
THE NOTES ARE SUBJECT TO THE ISSUER’S CREDITWORTHINESS – An actual or anticipated downgrade in the Issuer’s credit rating will likely have an adverse effect on the value of the notes. The Payment at Maturity on the notes, including any principal protection, is subject to the creditworthiness of the Issuer.
 
 
NO PERIODIC INTEREST OR DIVIDEND PAYMENTS OR VOTING RIGHTS – As a holder of the notes, 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 components underlying the Basket Components would have.
 
 
THE YIELD ON THE NOTES MAY BE ZERO AND MAY BE LESS THAN THE YIELD ON TRADITIONAL DEBT SECURITIES — You will realize a positive return on the notes only if the Final Basket Level is greater than the Initial Basket Level. Even if the return on the notes is positive, such return may not be sufficient to compensate you for any opportunity cost, taking into account factors relating to the time value of money over the term of the notes.
 
 
COMMODITY FUTURES CONTRACTS ARE SUBJECT TO UNCERTAIN LEGAL AND REGULATORY REGIMES, WHICH MAY RESULT IN A HEDGING DISRUPTION EVENT — The commodity futures contracts that comprise the DJUBS Index are subject to legal and regulatory regimes in the United States and, in some cases, in other countries that may change in ways that could adversely affect our ability to hedge our obligations under the notes. The Commodity Futures Trading Commission has announced that it is considering imposing position limits on certain commodities (such as energy commodities) and the manner in which current exemptions for bona fide hedging transactions or positions are implemented. Such restrictions may cause us or our affiliates to be unable to effect transactions necessary to hedge our obligations under the notes, in which case we may, in our sole and absolute discretion, accelerate the payment on your notes. If the payment on your notes is accelerated, the return on your notes may be less than if the notes were held to maturity, and you may not be able to reinvest your proceeds in a comparable investment.
 
 
ASSUMING NO CHANGES IN MARKET CONDITIONS OR ANY OTHER RELEVANT FACTORS, THE VALUE OF THE NOTES ON THE SETTLEMENT DATE (AS DETERMINED BY DEUTSCHE BANK AG) WILL BE LESS THAN THE ORIGINAL ISSUE PRICE – While the Payment at Maturity described in this term sheet is based on the full Principal Amount of your notes, the original issue price of the notes may include commissions paid to agents and will include the cost of hedging our obligations under the notes. Therefore, the value of the notes on the Settlement Date, assuming no changes in market conditions or other relevant factors, will be less than the original issue price. The inclusion of commissions and hedging costs in the original issue price will also decrease the price, if any, at which we will be willing to purchase the notes after the Settlement Date. Our hedging costs include the projected profit that we or our affiliates are expected to realize in consideration for assuming the risks inherent in managing the hedging transactions. The notes are not designed to be short-term trading instruments. Accordingly, you should be willing and able to hold your notes to maturity.
 
 
THE NOTES WILL NOT BE LISTED AND THERE WILL LIKELY BE LIMITED LIQUIDITY – The notes will not be listed on any securities exchange. Deutsche Bank AG or its affiliates or agents may offer to purchase the notes in the secondary market but are not required to do so and may cease such market-making activities at any time. Even if there is a secondary market, it may not provide enough liquidity to allow you to trade or sell the notes easily. Because other dealers are not likely to make a secondary market for the notes, the price at which you may be able to trade your notes is likely to depend on the price, if any, at which Deutsche Bank AG or its affiliates or agents are willing to buy the notes.
 
 
TRADING BY US OR OUR AFFILIATES MAY IMPAIR THE VALUE OF THE NOTES – We and our affiliates are active participants in the equity and commodity markets as dealers, proprietary traders and agents for our customers, and therefore at any given time we may be a party to one or more equities or commodities transactions. In addition, we or one or more of our affiliates may hedge our exposure from the notes by entering into various transactions. We may adjust these hedges at any time and from time to time. Our trading and hedging activities may have a material effect on the prices of the components underlying the Basket Components and consequently have an impact on the performance of the Basket, and may adversely affect the
 
TS-5

 
Basket Return. It is possible that we or our affiliates could receive significant returns from these hedging activities while the value of or amounts payable under the notes may decline.
 
 
WE AND OUR AFFILIATES AND AGENTS MAY PUBLISH RESEARCH, EXPRESS OPINIONS OR PROVIDE RECOMMENDATIONS THAT ARE INCONSISTENT WITH INVESTING IN OR HOLDING THE NOTES. ANY SUCH RESEARCH, OPINIONS OR RECOMMENDATIONS COULD AFFECT THE LEVEL OF THE BASKET COMPONENTS TO WHICH THE NOTES ARE LINKED OR THE VALUE OF THE NOTES – Deutsche Bank AG, its affiliates and agents publish research from time to time on financial markets and other matters that may influence the value of the notes, and we may express opinions or provide recommendations that are inconsistent with purchasing or holding the notes. Any research, opinions or recommendations expressed by Deutsche Bank AG, its affiliates or agents may not be consistent with each other and may be modified from time to time without notice. Investors should make their own independent investigation of the merits of investing in the notes and the Basket Components to which the notes are linked.
 
 
OUR ACTIONS AS CALCULATION AGENT AND OUR HEDGING ACTIVITY MAY ADVERSELY AFFECT THE VALUE OF THE NOTES – We and our affiliates play a variety of roles in connection with the issuance of the notes, including acting as Calculation Agent and hedging our obligations under the notes. In performing these roles, the economic interests of the Calculation Agent and other affiliates of ours are potentially adverse to your interests as an investor in the notes.
 
 
MANY ECONOMIC AND MARKET FACTORS WILL IMPACT THE VALUE OF THE NOTES – In addition to the Basket closing level on any day, the value of the notes will be affected by a number of complex and interrelated economic and market factors that may either offset or magnify each other, including:
 
 
trends related to inflation;
 
 
fluctuations in the prices of various consumer goods and energy resources;
 
 
the level and expected volatility of the Basket Components;
 
 
the time remaining to maturity of the notes;
 
 
the market price for the components underlying the Basket Components;
 
 
the dividend rate on the common stocks underlying the S&P 500® Index;
 
 
interest and yield rates in the market generally, including on the Issuer’s debt, and in the markets of the components underlying the Basket Components;
 
 
a variety of economic, financial, political, regulatory or judicial events and monetary policies that affect the components underlying the Basket Components or consumer prices or markets generally;
 
 
the composition of the Basket Components and any changes to the components underlying the Basket Components;
 
 
supply and demand for the notes; and
 
 
our creditworthiness, including actual or anticipated downgrades in our credit ratings.
 
Risks Relating to the Basket Components
 
 
MARKET RISK – The return on the notes at maturity is linked to the performance of the Basket Components, and will depend on whether, and the extent to which, the Basket Return is positive. YOU WILL RECEIVE NO MORE THAN THE FULL PRINCIPAL AMOUNT OF YOUR NOTES AT MATURITY IF THE BASKET RETURN IS ZERO OR NEGATIVE.
 
 
CHANGES IN THE VALUE OF THE BASKET COMPONENTS MAY OFFSET EACH OTHER – Price movements in the Basket Components may not correlate with each other. At a time when the levels of some of the Basket Components increase, the levels of other Basket Components may not increase as much or may decline. 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.
 
 
THE BASKET COMPONENTS ARE UNEQUALLY WEIGHTED — The Basket Components are unequally weighted. Accordingly, performance by a Basket Component with a higher weighting will influence the Final Basket Level, and therefore the Basket Return, to a greater degree than the performances of Basket Components with lower weightings. If a Basket Component with a greater weighting performs poorly, that poor performance could negate or diminish the effect on the Final Basket Level of any positive performance by the lesser weighted Basket Components.
 
TS-6

 
 
HISTORICAL LEVELS OF THE BASKET AND BASKET COMPONENTS SHOULD NOT BE TAKEN AS AN INDICATION OF FUTURE PERFORMANCE OF THE BASKET AND BASKET COMPONENTS DURING THE TERM OF THE NOTES – The actual performance of the Basket and Basket Components during the term of the notes, as well as the amount payable at maturity, may bear little relation to the historical performance of the Basket and Basket Components.
 
 
CONSUMER PRICES MAY CHANGE UNPREDICTABLY, AFFECTING THE LEVEL OF THE CPI AND THE VALUE OF THE NOTES IN UNFORESEEABLE WAYS – Market prices of the consumer items underlying the CPI may fluctuate based on numerous factors, including: changes in supply and demand relationships; weather; agriculture; trade; fiscal, monetary, and exchange control programs; domestic and foreign political and economic events and policies; disease; technological developments; and changes in interest rates. These factors may affect the level of the CPI and the value of the notes in varying ways, and different factors may cause the level of the CPI to move in inconsistent directions at inconsistent rates. In the past, the CPI has experienced periods of volatility and such volatility may occur in the future, although fluctuations and trends in the CPI that have occurred in the past are not necessarily indicative of future fluctuations. Changes in the CPI are a function of the changes in specified consumer prices over time, which result from the interaction of many factors over which we have no control and may have an adverse effect on the value of the notes.
 
 
THE CPI ITSELF AND THE WAY THE BLS CALCULATES THE CPI MAY CHANGE IN THE FUTURE - There can be no assurance that the BLS will not change the method by which it calculates the CPI in a way that could negatively affect the CPI Return and thus the Basket Return. Accordingly, the value of the notes may be significantly reduced. If the CPI is discontinued or substantially altered, a successor index may be employed to calculate the Payment at Maturity of the notes, as described in “Discontinuation of an Index; Alternation of Method of Calculation ” in the accompanying product supplement, and that substitution may adversely affect the value of the notes.
 
 
COMMODITY PRICES MAY CHANGE UNPREDICTABLY — Market prices of the DJUBS Index Commodities may fluctuate rapidly based on numerous factors, including changes in supply and demand relationships, weather, trends in agriculture and trade, fiscal, monetary and exchange control programs, domestic and foreign political and economic events and policies, disease, pestilence, technological developments and changes in interest rates. These factors may affect the values of the related contracts reflected in the DJUBS Index and the value of your notes in varying ways, and different factors may cause the values of the DJUBS Index Commodities and the volatility of their prices to move in inconsistent directions at inconsistent rates.
 
 
THE MARKETS FOR THE DJUBS INDEX COMMODITIES SUFFER FROM SYSTEMIC RISKS —Changes in supply and demand can have significant adverse effects on the prices of commodities. In addition, commodities tend to be exposed to the risk of fluctuations in currency exchange rates, volatility from speculative activities and the risk that substitutes for the commodities in their common uses will become more widely available or comparatively less expensive. Agriculture prices are often heavily affected by weather, crop yields, natural disasters, pestilence and technological developments, as well as government policies regarding agriculture, energy, trade, fiscal and monetary issues, particularly with regard to subsidies and tariffs. In addition, there are many risks specific to the individual DJUBS Index Commodities.
 
 
THE COMMODITY PRICES REFLECTED IN THE DJUBS INDEX ARE SUBJECT TO EMERGING MARKETS’ POLITICAL AND ECONOMIC RISKS — The DJUBS Index Commodities may be produced in emerging market countries that are more exposed to the risk of swift political change and economic downturns than their industrialized counterparts. Indeed, in recent years, many emerging market countries have undergone significant political, economic and social change. In many cases, far-reaching political changes have resulted in constitutional and social tensions, and, in some cases, instability and reaction against market reforms has occurred. There can be no assurance that future political changes will not adversely affect the economic conditions of an emerging market nation. Political or economic instability is likely to adversely impact the level of the DJUBS Index and, consequently, the return on your investment.
 
 
THE LONDON METAL EXCHANGE DOES NOT HAVE DAILY PRICE LIMITS — The official cash offer prices of aluminum are determined by reference to the per unit U.S. dollar cash offer prices of contracts traded on the London Metal Exchange, which we refer to as the LME. The LME is a principals’ market which operates in a manner more closely analogous to the over-the-counter physical commodity markets than regulated futures markets. For example, there are no daily price limits on the LME, which would otherwise restrict the extent of
 
TS-7

 
daily fluctuations in the prices of LME contracts. In a declining market, therefore, it is possible that prices would continue to decline without limitation within a trading day for aluminum or over a period of trading days. In addition, a contract may be entered into on the LME calling for delivery on any day from one day to three months following the date of such contract and for monthly delivery in any of the next 16 to 24 months (depending on the commodity) following such third month, in contrast to trading on futures exchanges, which call for delivery in stated delivery months. As a result, there may be a greater risk of a concentration of positions im LME contracts on particular delivery dates, which in turn could cause temporary aberrations in the prices of LME contracts for certain delivery dates. If such aberrations occur on the Final Valuation Date, the per unit U.S. dollar cash offer prices used to determine the official cash offer price of aluminum and consequently the Payment at Maturity, could be adversely affected.
 
 
IF THE LIQUIDITY OF THE DJUBS INDEX COMMODITIES IS LIMITED, THE VALUE OF THE NOTES WOULD LIKELY BE IMPAIRED — Commodities and derivatives contracts on commodities may be difficult to buy or sell, particularly during adverse market conditions. Reduced liquidity on the Final Valuation Date would likely have an adverse effect on the closing level of the DJUBS Index and, therefore, on the return on your notes. Limited liquidity relating to the DJUBS Index Commodities may also result in the publisher of the DJUBS Index being unable to determine the level of the DJUBS Index using its normal means.  Any resulting discretion by the calculation agent in determining the Final Component Level of the DJUBS Index could adversely affect the value of the notes.
 
 
SUSPENSION OR DISRUPTIONS OF MARKET TRADING IN THE COMMODITY AND RELATED FUTURES MARKETS MAY ADVERSELY AFFECT THE VALUE OF THE NOTES — The commodity markets are subject to temporary distortions or other disruptions due to various factors, including the lack of liquidity in the markets, the participation of speculators and government regulation and intervention. In addition, U.S. futures exchanges and some foreign exchanges have regulations that limit the amount of fluctuation in futures contract prices that may occur during a single business day. These limits are generally referred to as “daily price fluctuation limits” and the maximum or minimum price of a contract on any given day as a result of these limits is referred to as a “limit price.” Once the limit price has been reached in a particular contract, no trades may be made at a different price. Limit prices have the effect of precluding trading in a particular contract or forcing the liquidation of contracts at disadvantageous times or prices. These circumstances could adversely affect the level of the DJUBS Index and, therefore, the value of your notes.
 
 
DJUBS INDEX CALCULATION DISRUPTION EVENTS MAY REQUIRE AN ADJUSTMENT TO THE CALCULATION OF THE DJUBS INDEX — At any time during the term of the notes, the daily calculation of the DJUBS Index may be adjusted in the event that UBS Securities LLC (“UBS”) determines that any of the following index calculation disruption events exists: the termination or suspension of, or material limitation or disruption in the trading of any futures contract used in the calculation of the DJUBS Index on that day; the settlement price of any futures contract used in the calculation of the DJUBS Index reflects the maximum permitted price change from the previous day’s settlement price; the failure of an exchange to publish official settlement prices for any futures contract used in the calculation of the DJUBS Index; or, with respect to any futures contract used in the calculation of the DJUBS Index that trades on the LME, a business day on which the LME is not open for trading. Any such index calculation disruption events may have an adverse impact on the value of the DJUBS Index or the manner in which it is calculated. See “The Dow Jones–UBS Commodity DJ UBS IndexSM—Index Calculation Disruption Events” in this term sheet.
 
 
DOW JONES AND UBS MAY BE REQUIRED TO REPLACE A DESIGNATED CONTRACT IF THE EXISTING FUTURES CONTRACT IS TERMINATED OR REPLACED — A futures contract known as a designated contract has been selected as the reference contract for each underlying physical commodity. See “The Dow Jones–UBS Commodity IndexSM—Designated Contracts for each DJUBS Index Commodity” in this term sheet. Data concerning each designated contract will be used to calculate the DJUBS Index. The termination or replacement of a futures contract on an established exchange occurs infrequently; if a designated contract were to be terminated or replaced by an exchange, a comparable futures contract, if available, would be selected by a supervisory committee appointed by Dow Jones & Company, Inc. (“Dow Jones”) and UBS to replace that designated contract. The termination or replacement of any designated contract may have an adverse impact on the value of the DJUBS Index.

The DJUBS Index is a proprietary index that was established in July 1998 to provide a liquid and diversified benchmark for commodities. The DJUBS Index is currently comprised of futures contracts on nineteen physical commodities. A commodity futures contract is an agreement that provides for the purchase and sale of a specified type and quantity of a commodity during a stated delivery month for a fixed price. The nineteen commodities for 2010 that comprise the DJUBS Index (the “DJUBS Index Commodities”) are: aluminum; coffee; copper; corn; cotton; crude oil; gold; heating oil; lean hogs; live cattle; natural gas; nickel; silver; soybeans; soybean oil; sugar; unleaded gasoline; wheat; and zinc. Futures contracts on the DJUBS Index are currently listed for trading on the Chicago Board of Trade (the “CBOT”). The DJUBS Index Commodities currently trade on United States exchanges, with the exception of aluminum, nickel and zinc, which trade on the London Metal Exchange.
 
The DJUBS Index is calculated on an excess return basis and on a total return basis. The former reflects the return of underlying commodity futures price movements only, while the latter reflects the return on fully collateralized positions in the underlying commodity futures. The DJUBS Index is reported by Bloomberg under the ticker symbol “DJUBS <Index>.” The notes are linked to the excess return version of the DJUBS Index.
 
Methodology
 
The DJUBS Index tracks what is known as a rolling futures position, which is a position where, on a periodic basis, futures contracts on physical commodities specifying delivery on a nearby date must be sold and futures contracts on physical commodities that have not yet reached the delivery period must be purchased. An investor with a rolling futures position is able to avoid delivering underlying physical commodities while maintaining exposure to those commodities. The rollover for each DJUBS Index component occurs over a period of five DJ-UBS Business Days each month according to a pre-determined schedule.
 
The methodology for determining the composition and weighting of the DJUBS Index and for calculating its level is subject to modification by Dow Jones and UBS at any time. Currently, Dow Jones disseminates the DJUBS Commodity Index level at approximately 15 second intervals from 8:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., New York City time, and publishes a daily settlement price for the DJUBS Index at approximately 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on each DJ-UBS Business Day on the Bloomberg pages set forth above.
 
A “DJ-UBS Business Day” means a day on which the sum of the Commodity Index Percentages (as described below under “—Annual Reweighting and Rebalancing of the DJUBS Index”) for the DJUBS Index Commodities that are open for trading is greater than 50%.
 
The DJUBS Index was created using the following four main principles:
 
Economic Significance: To achieve a fair representation of a diversified group of commodities to the world economy, the DJUBS Index uses both liquidity data and dollar-weighted production data in determining the relative quantities of included commodities. The DJUBS Index primarily relies on liquidity data, or the relative amount of trading activity of a particular commodity, as an important indicator of the value placed on that commodity by financial and physical market participants. The DJUBS Index also relies on production data as a useful measure of the importance of a commodity to the world economy.
 
Diversification: In order to avoid the DJUBS Index being subjected to micro-economic shocks in one commodity or sector, diversification rules have been established and are applied annually on a price-percentage basis in order to maintain diversified commodities exposure over time.
 
TS-10

 
Continuity: The DJUBS Index is intended to provide a stable benchmark so that there is confidence that historical performance data is based on a structure that bears some resemblance to both the current and future composition of the DJUBS Index.
 
Liquidity: The inclusion of liquidity as a weighting factor helps to ensure that the DJUBS Index can accommodate substantial investment flows.
 
Designated Contracts for each DJUBS Index Commodity
 
A futures contract known as a designated contract is selected for each of the 23 commodities eligible for inclusion in the DJUBS Index. With the exception of several LME contracts, where there exists more than one futures contract with sufficient liquidity to be chosen as a designated contract for a DJUBS Index Commodity, the futures contract that is traded in North America and denominated in United States dollars has been chosen. If more than one of those contracts exists, the most actively traded contract is chosen. Data concerning this designated contract will be used to calculate the DJUBS Index. The termination or replacement of a futures contract on an established exchange occurs infrequently. If a designated contract were to be terminated or replaced, a comparable futures contract would be selected, if available, to replace that designated contract. The 23 commodities eligible for inclusion in the DJUBS Index are traded on the LME, the New York Board of Trade (“NYBOT”), the New York Commodities Exchange (“COMEX”), the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (“CME”) and the New York Mercantile Exchange (the “NYMEX”) and are as follows:

Annual Reweighting and Rebalancing of the DJUBS Index
 
The DJUBS Index is reweighted and rebalanced each year in January on a price-percentage basis. The annual weightings for the DJUBS Index are determined each year in June or July. The annual weightings are announced in July and implemented the following January.
 
The relative weightings of the component commodities included in the DJUBS Index are determined annually according to both liquidity and dollar-adjusted production data in two-thirds and one-third shares, respectively. Each June, for each commodity designated for potential inclusion in the DJUBS Index, liquidity is measured by the commodity liquidity percentage (the “CLP”) and production by the commodity production percentage (the “CPP”). The CLP for each commodity is determined by taking a five-year average of the product of the trading volume and the historic value of the designated contract for that commodity, and dividing the result by the sum of the products for all commodities which were designated for potential inclusion in the DJUBS Index. The CPP is determined for each commodity by taking a five-year average of annual world production figures, adjusted by the historic value of the designated contract, and dividing the result by the sum of the production figures for all the commodities which were designated for potential inclusion in the DJUBS Index. The CLP and CPP are then combined (using a ratio of 2:1) to establish the Commodity Index Percentage (the “CIP”) for each commodity. The CIP is then adjusted in accordance with the diversification rules described below in order to determine the commodities which will be included in the DJUBS Index and their respective percentage weights.
 
To ensure that no single commodity or commodity sector dominates the DJUBS Index, the following diversification rules are applied to the annual reweighting and rebalancing of the DJUBS Index as of January of the applicable year:
 
 
·
No related group of commodities designated as a Commodity Group (e.g., energy, precious metals, livestock or grains) may constitute more than 33% of the DJUBS Index;
 
 
·
No single commodity may constitute more than 15% of the DJUBS Index;
 
 
·
No single commodity, together with its derivatives (e.g., crude oil, together with heating oil and unleaded gasoline), may constitute more than 25% of the DJUBS Index; and
 
 
·
No single commodity may constitute less than 2% of the DJUBS Index.
 
TS-12

 
Following the annual reweighting and rebalancing of the DJUBS Index in January, the percentage of any single commodity or group of commodities at any time prior to the next reweighting or rebalancing will fluctuate and may exceed or be less than the percentages set forth above.
 
Following application of the diversification rules discussed above, the CIPs are incorporated into the DJUBS Index by calculating the new unit weights for each DJUBS Index Commodity. Near the beginning of each new calendar year, the CIPs, along with the settlement prices on that date for the DJ UBS Index Commodity, are used to determine the commodity index multiplier (the “CIM”) for each DJUBS Index Commodity. The CIM is used to achieve the percentage weightings of the DJUBS Index Commodities, in dollar terms, indicated by their respective CIPs. After the CIMs are calculated, they remain fixed throughout the year. As a result, the observed price percentage of each DJUBS Index Commodity will float throughout the year, until the CIMs are reset the following year based on new CIPs.
 
Computation of the DJUBS Index
 
The DJUBS Index is calculated by Dow Jones, in conjunction with UBS by applying the impact of the changes to the prices of the DJUBS Index Commodities (based on their relative weightings). Once the CIMs are determined as discussed above, the calculation of the DJUBS Index is a mathematical process whereby the CIMs for the DJUBS Index Commodities are multiplied by the prices for the DJUBS Index Commodities. These products are then summed. The percentage change in this sum is then applied to the prior level of the DJUBS Index to calculate the current level of the DJUBS Index. The DJUBS Index is calculated on an excess return and on a total return basis.      
 
DJUBS Index Calculation Disruption Events
 
From time to time, disruptions can occur in trading futures contracts on various commodity exchanges. The daily calculation of the DJUBS Index will be adjusted in the event that UBS determines that any of the following index calculation disruption events exists:  
 
(a) the termination or suspension of, or material limitation or disruption in, the trading of any futures contract used in the calculation of the DJUBS Index on that day;
 
(b) the settlement price of any futures contract used in the calculation of the DJUBS Index reflects the maximum permitted price change from the previous day’s settlement price;
 
(c) the failure of an exchange to publish official settlement prices for any futures contract used in the calculation of the DJUBS Index; or
 
(d) with respect to any futures contract used in the calculation of the DJUBS Index that trades on the LME, a Business Day on which the LME is not open for trading.
