(1) Index history is for illustrative purposes only and does not represent
actual PowerShares DB Gold ETN performance. The inception date of the Deutsche
Bank Liquid Commodity Index - Optimum Yield Gold(tm) is May 24, 2006. Index
history is based on a combination of the monthly returns from the Deutsche Bank
Liquid Commodity Index -- Optimum Yield Gold Excess Return(tm) (the "Gold 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 Gold ETNs,
less the investor fee. The Gold Index is intended to reflect changes in the
market value of certain gold futures contracts and is comprised of a single
unfunded gold futures contract. 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 Gold 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 Gold ETNs are senior unsecured obligations of Deutsche Bank
AG, London Branch, and the amount due on the PowerShares DB Gold ETNs is
dependent on Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch's ability to pay. The PowerShares
DB Gold ETNs are riskier than ordinary unsecured debt securities and have no
principal protection. Risks of investing in the PowerShares DB Gold ETNs
include limited portfolio diversification, uncertain principal repayment,
trade price fluctuations, illiquidity and leveraged losses. Investing in the
PowerShares DB Gold 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 Gold ETNs even if the value
of the relevant index has increased. If at any time the redemption value of the
PowerShares DB Gold ETNs is zero, your Investment will expire worthless.
The PowerShares DB Gold ETNs may be sold throughout the day on NYSE Arca
through any brokerage account. There are restrictions on the minimum number of
PowerShares DB Gold 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 Gold ETNs. Sales in the
secondary market may result in losses.

The PowerShares DB Gold ETNs are concentrated in gold. The market value of the
PowerShares DB Gold ETNs may be influenced by many unpredictable factors,
including, among other things, volatile gold prices, changes in supply and
demand relationships, changes in interest rates, and monetary and other
governmental actions. The PowerShares DB Gold 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 Gold Double Long ETN and PowerShares DB Gold 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,

An investor should consider the PowerShares DB Gold ETNs' investment
objectives, risks, charges and expenses carefully before investing.
An investment in the PowerShares DB Gold ETNs involves risks, including
possible loss of principal. For a description of the main risks, see "Risk
Factors" in the applicable pricing supplement.
