Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch

$ Buffered Enhanced Participation Notes Linked to a Basket of Currencies Relative to the U.S. Dollar due December 1*, 2011

General

The Buffered Enhanced Participation Notes (the “securities”) are designed for investors who seek a return at maturity of between 1.10 and 1.20 times (to be determined on the Trade Date) the appreciation, if any, of an equally weighted basket of currencies (the “Basket”) consisting of the Brazilian real, the Norwegian krone, the Indonesian rupiah, the Chinese renminbi and the Singapore dollar (the “Basket Currencies”) relative to the U.S. dollar (the “Reference Currency”), as measured by the Basket Performance formula set forth herein. Investors should be willing to forgo coupon payments and, if the Basket Performance is less than -10% as of the Final Valuati on Date, be willing to lose up to 90% of their initial investment. The maximum Basket Performance will equal 100%, resulting in a maximum possible Payment at Maturity of between $2,100.00 and $2,200.00 per $1,000 Face Amount of securities, based on a Participation Rate of between 110% and 120% (the actual Participation Rate will be determined on the Trade Date). Any payment at maturity of the securities is subject to the credit of the Issuer.

Senior unsecured obligations of Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch maturing December 1*, 2011

Denominations of $1,000 (the “Face Amount”) and minimum initial investments of $1,000

The securities are expected to price on or about May 25*, 2010 (the “Trade Date”) and are expected to settle three business days later on or about May 28*, 2010 (the “Settlement Date”).

Reference Currency:		U.S. dollar (“USD”)
Participation Rate:		110.00% to 120.00% (The actual Participation Rate will be determined on the Trade Date.)
Payment at Maturity:		• If the Basket Performance is greater than zero, you will be entitled to receive a cash payment at maturity that provides you with a return per $1,000 Face Amount of securities equal to the Basket Performance multiplied by a Participation Rate of 110.00% to 120.00% (to be determined on the Trade Date). Accordingly, if the Basket Performance is positive, your Payment at Maturity per $1,000 Face Amount of securities will be calculated as follows:
		$1,000 +($1,000 x Basket Performance x Participation Rate)
		• Your investment is protected against a negative Basket Performance of to the extent of the Downside Protection. If the Basket Performance is less than or equal to zero but greater than or equal to -10%, you will be entitled to receive a cash payment at maturity of $1,000.00 per $1,000 Face Amount of securities.
		• Your investment will be fully exposed to any negative Basket Performance in excess of the Downside Protection. If the Basket Performance is less than -10%, you will lose 1% of the Face Amount of your securities for every 1% that the Basket Performance is less than -10%. Accordingly, if the Basket Performance is less than -10%, your payment at maturity per $1,000 Face Amount of securities will be calculated as follows:
		$1,000 + [$1,000 x (Basket Performance + Downside Protection)]
		You could lose up to 90% of your initial investment if the Basket Performance is less than -10%.
Downside Protection:		10%

Basket Currency Performance:		For each Basket Currency, the Basket Currency Performance (expressed as a percentage) will be calculated as follows:
		Basket Currency Starting Level – Basket Currency Ending Level Basket Currency Starting Level
		The maximum Basket Currency Performance for each Basket Currency will equal 100%, resulting in a maximum Basket Performance of 100% and, therefore, a maximum possible Payment at Maturity equal to between $2,100.00 and $2,200.00 per $1,000 Face Amount of securities, based on the Participation Rate of between 110% and 120% (to be determined on the Trade Date).
Basket Currency Starting Level:		For each Basket Currency, the Spot Rate for such Basket Currency on the Trade Date.
Basket Currency Ending Level:		For each Basket Currency, the Spot Rate for such Basket Currency on the Final Valuation Date.
Spot Rate:		For each Basket Currency, the spot exchange rate for such currency against the U.S. dollar, as determined by the calculation agent by reference to the Spot Rate definitions set forth in this term sheet under “Spot Rate.” The Spot Rate for each Basket Currency is expressed as units of the respective Basket Currency per U.S. dollar. The Spot Rates are subject to the provisions set forth under “Market Disruption Events” in this term sheet.

Hypothetical Payments at Maturity for Each $1,000 Face Amount of Securities

The following table illustrates hypothetical Payments at Maturity per $1,000 Face Amount of securities depending on hypothetical performances of the equally-weighted Basket of Basket Currencies relative to the U.S. dollar, applying a hypothetical Participation Rate of 115% (the actual Participation Rate will be determined on the Trade Date.) The hypothetical Payments at Maturity set forth below are for illustrative purposes only. The actual Payment at Maturity of the securities will be based on the Basket Performance, as determined on the Final Valuation Date. You should consider carefully whether the securities are suitable for your investment goals. The numbers in the table below have been rounded for ease of illustration.

Hypothetical Basket Performance	Payment at Maturity	Percentage Return
70.00%	$1,805.00	80.50%
60.00%	$1,609.00	69.00%
50.00%	$1,575.00	57.50%
40.00%	$1,460.00	46.00%

Hypothetical Examples of Amounts Payable at Maturity

The following hypothetical examples illustrate how the hypothetical payments at maturity set forth in the table above are calculated. The examples below use hypothetical Basket Currency Starting Levels of 1.7650 for the BRL, 6.0330 for the NOK, 9025.0000 for the IDR, 6.8270 for the CNY and 1.3810 for the SGD.

Example 1: The Basket Performance is 20%. Each of the BRL, NOK, IDR, CNY, and SGD appreciate relative to the USD, resulting in a Basket Performance of 20%. Because the Basket Performance is positive, the investor will be entitled to receive a Payment at Maturity of $1,230.00 per $1,000 Face Amount of securities, calculated as follows:

Payment at Maturity per $1,000 Face Amount of securities =

$1,000 + ($1,000 x Basket Performance x Participation Rate), or $1,000 + ($1,000 x 20% x 115%) = $1,230.00

The table below illustrates how the Basket Performance in the above example was calculated:

Basket Currency	Basket Currency Starting Level	Basket Currency Ending Level	Basket Currency Performance	Basket Currency Weighting
BRL	1.7650	1.4120	20.0%	1/5
NOK	6.0330	4.8264	20.0%	1/5
IDR	9025.0000	7220.0000	20.0%	1/5
CNY	6.8270	5.4616	20.0%	1/5
SGD	1.3810	1.1048	20.0%	1/5

Basket Performance = (20% x .20) + (20% x .20) + (20% x .20) + (20% x .20) + (20% x .20) = 0.20 = 20.00%

Example 2: The Basket Performance is zero. The BRL and NOK appreciate relative to the USD, and the IDR, CNY and SGD depreciate relative to the USD, resulting in a Basket Performance of 0%. Because the Basket Performance is zero, the investor receives a Payment at Maturity of $1,000 per $1,000 Face Amount of securities.

The table below illustrates how the Basket Performance in the above example was calculated:

Basket Currency	Basket Currency Starting Level	Basket Currency Ending Level	Basket Currency Performance	Basket Currency Weighting
BRL	1.7650	1.4120	20.0%	1/5
NOK	6.0330	5.4297	10.0%	1/5
IDR	9025.0000	9927.5000	-10.0%	1/5
CNY	6.8270	7.5097	-10.0%	1/5
SGD	1.3810	1.5191	-10.0%	1/5

Basket Performance = (20% x .20) + (10% x .20) + (-10% x .20) + (-10% x .20) + (-10% x .20) = 0 = 0.00%

Example 3: The Basket Performance is -10%. The BRL and NOK appreciate relative to the USD, and the IDR, CNY and SGD depreciate relative to the USD, resulting in a Basket Performance of -10%. Even though the Basket Performance is negative, because of the protection provided by the Downside Protection of up to a 10% decline, the investor will be entitled to receive a Payment at Maturity of $1,000.00 per $1,000 Face Amount of securities.

The table below illustrates how the Basket Performance in the above example was calculated:

Basket Currency	Basket Currency Starting Level	Basket Currency Ending Level	Basket Currency Performance	Basket Currency Weighting
BRL	1.7650	1.67675	5.0%	1/5
NOK	6.0330	5.73135	5.0%	1/5
IDR	9025.0000	10830.0000	-20.0%	1/5
CNY	6.8270	8.1924	-20.0%	1/5
SGD	1.3810	1.6572	-20.0%	1/5

Basket Performance = (5% x .20) + (5% x .20) + (-20% x .20) + (-20% x .20) + (-20% x .20) = -0.10 = -10.00%

TS-3

Example 4: The Basket Performance is -20%. Each of the BRL, NOK, IDR, CNY and SGD depreciate relative to the USD, resulting in a Basket Performance of -20%. Because the Basket Performance is negative and less than the Downside Protection, the investor receives a Payment at Maturity of $900 per $1,000 Face Amount of securities.

Payment at Maturity per $1,000 Face Amount of securities =

$1,000 + ($1,000 x Basket Performance + Downside Protection),

or $1,000 + ($1,000 x -20% + 10%) = $900.00

The table below illustrates how the Basket Performance in the above example was calculated:

Basket Currency	Basket Currency Starting Level	Basket Currency Ending Level	Basket Currency Performance	Basket Currency Weighting
BRL	1.7650	1.9415	-10.0%	1/5
NOK	6.0330	6.6363	-10.0%	1/5
IDR	9025.0000	10830.0000	-20.0%	1/5
CNY	6.8270	8.8751	-30.0%	1/5
SGD	1.3810	1.7953	-30.0%	1/5

Basket Performance = (-20% x .20) + (-20% x .20) + (-20% x .20) + (-20% x .20) + (-20% x .20) = -0.20 = -20.00%

Selected Purchase Considerations

•

APPRECIATION POTENTIAL IF THE BASKET PERFORMANCE IS POSITIVE — The securities provide the opportunity to enhance returns by multiplying any positive Basket Performance (subject to a maximum possible Basket Performance of 100%) by a Participation Rate of between 110% and 120% (the actual Participation Rate will be determined on the Trade Date). Because the securities are our senior unsecured obligations, payment of any amount at maturity is subject to our ability to pay our obligations as they become due.

•

LIMITED PROTECTION AGAINST LOSS — Payment at Maturity of the Face Amount of the securities is protected against a negative Basket Performance of up to the Downside Protection. If the Basket Performance is less than -10%, for every 1% that the Basket Performance is less than -10%, you will lose 1% of the Face Amount of your securities. Accordingly, you could lose up to 90% of your initial investment in the securities.

•

DIVERSIFICATION AMONG THE BASKET CURRENCIES — The return on the securities is linked to the performance of a Basket consisting of the Brazilian real, Norwegian krone, Indonesian rupiah, Chinese renminbi and Singapore dollar, which we refer to as the Basket Currencies, relative to the U.S. dollar, which we refer to as the Reference Currency. Accordingly, the level of the Basket will increase as the Basket Currencies appreciate relative to the U.S. dollar, and will decrease as the Basket Currencies depreciate relative to the U.S. dollar.

•

TAX CONSEQUENCES — You should review carefully the section of the accompanying product supplement entitled “U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences.” Although the tax consequences of an investment in the securities are uncertain, we believe it is reasonable to treat the securities as prepaid financial contracts for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Under this treatment, you should not recognize taxable income or loss prior to the maturity of your securities, other than pursuant to a sale or exchange. If, however, the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) were successful in asserting an alternative treatment for the securities, the tax consequences of ownership and disposition of the securiti es might be affected materially and adversely. We do not plan to request a ruling from the IRS, and the IRS or a court might not agree with the tax treatment described in this term sheet and the accompanying product supplement. The remainder of this discussion assumes that the treatment of the securities as prepaid financial contracts is respected.

Because of the application of certain rules relating to foreign currency instruments under Section 988 of the Internal Revenue Code, your gain or loss on the securities should be treated as ordinary income or loss unless on or before the date on which you acquire your securities you make a valid election to treat such gain or loss as capital gain or loss pursuant to the applicable Treasury regulations. Although the matter is uncertain, we believe it is reasonable to treat the election under Section 988 as available. Assuming the

TS-4

election is available, if you make a valid election before the close of the day on which you acquire your securities, your gain or loss on the securities should be capital gain or loss and should be long-term capital gain or loss if at the time of sale, exchange or retirement you have held the securities for more than one year. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to certain limitations.

To make this election, you must, in accordance with the detailed procedures set forth in the regulations under Section 988, either (a) clearly identify the transaction on your books and records on the date you acquire your securities as being subject to such an election and file the relevant statement verifying such election with your federal income tax return or (b) otherwise obtain independent verification of the election.

In 2007, Treasury and the IRS released a notice requesting comments on various issues regarding the U.S. federal income tax treatment of “prepaid forward contracts” and similar instruments, which may include the securities. The notice focuses in particular on whether to require holders of these instruments to accrue income over the term of their investment. It also asks for comments on a number of related topics, including the character of income or loss with respect to these instruments; the relevance of factors such as the nature of the underlying property to which the instruments are linked; the degree, if any, to which income (including any mandated accruals) realized by non-U.S. persons should be subject to withholding tax; and whether these instruments are or should be subject to the “constructive ownership” regime, which very generally can operate to recharacterize certain long-term capital gain as ordinary income and impose an interest charge. While the notice requests comments on appropriate transition rules and effective dates, any Treasury regulations or other guidance promulgated after consideration of these issues could materially and adversely affect the tax consequences of an investment in the securities, possibly with retroactive effect.

In 2007, the IRS also released a revenue ruling holding that a financial instrument with some arguable similarity to the securities is properly treated as a debt instrument denominated in a foreign currency. The securities are distinguishable in meaningful respects from the instruments described in the revenue ruling. If, however, the reach of the revenue ruling were to be extended, it could materially and adversely affect the tax consequences of an investment in the securities for U.S. holders, possibly with retroactive effect.

Recently enacted legislation requires certain individuals who hold “debt or equity interests” in any “foreign financial institution” that are not “regularly traded on an established securities market” to report information about such holdings on their U.S. federal income tax returns, generally for tax years beginning in 2011, unless a regulatory exemption is provided.

Under current law, the United Kingdom will not impose withholding tax on payments made with respect to the securities.

For a discussion of certain German tax considerations relating to the securities, 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. Prospective investors should consult their tax advisers regarding the U.S. federal tax consequences of an investment in the securities (including possible alternative treatments and the issues presented by the 2007 notice and ruling), as well as tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, local or non-U.S. taxing jurisdiction.

Selected Risk Considerations

An investment in the securities involves significant risks. Investing in the securities is not equivalent to investing directly in the Basket Currencies. You could lose up to 90% of your initial investment if the Basket Performance is less than -10%. You should also consider the “Risk Factors” in the accompanying product supplement.

•

YOUR INVESTMENT IN THE SECURITIES MAY RESULT IN A LOSS — The securities do not guarantee any positive return of your investment. The return on the securities at maturity is dependent on the Basket Performance, which in turn depends on the Basket Currency Performance of the Basket Currencies. If the Basket Performance is less than -10%, you will lose 1% of the Face Amount of your securities for every 1% that the Basket Performance is less than -10%, and you may lose up to 90% of your initial investment in the securities.

TS-5

•

MARKET RISK — To the extent the Basket Performance is less than -10%, you will lose some and could lose up to 90% of your initial investment in the securities. This will be true even if the Basket Currencies had moved favorably at some time during the term of the securities before moving to unfavorable levels on the Final Valuation Date.

•

CREDIT OF THE ISSUER — The securities are senior unsecured obligations of the Issuer, Deutsche Bank AG, and are not, either directly or indirectly, an obligation of any third party. Any payment to be made on the securities, including any Payment at Maturity, depends on the ability of Deutsche Bank AG to satisfy its obligations as they come due. As a result, the actual and perceived creditworthiness of Deutsche Bank AG will affect the value of the securities and in the event Deutsche Bank AG were to default on its obligations you may not receive the Payment at Maturity owed to you under the terms of the securities.

•

YOUR MAXIMUM POSSIBLE RETURN ON THE SECURITIES IS LIMITED BECAUSE THE MAXIMUM CURRENCY PERFORMANCE IS 100% — For each Basket Currency, the maximum Basket Currency Performance will equal 100%, resulting in a maximum Basket Performance of 100% and, therefore, a maximum possible Payment at Maturity equal to between $2,100.00 and $2,200.00 per $1,000 Face Amount of securities, based on the Participation Rate of between 110% and 120% (the actual Participation Rate will determined on the Trade Date).

•	THE SECURITIES ARE NOT BANK DEPOSITS AND ARE NOT INSURED OR GUARANTEED BY THE FEDERAL DEPOSIT INSURANCE CORPORATION OR ANY OTHER GOVERNMENTAL AGENCY.

•	THE SECURITIES DO NOT PAY COUPONS — The securities do not pay coupons during the term of the securities or at maturity.

•

INVESTING IN THE SECURITIES IS NOT EQUIVALENT TO INVESTING DIRECTLY IN THE BASKET CURRENCIES — You may receive a lower Payment at Maturity than you would have received if you had invested directly in the Basket Currencies. In addition, the Basket Performance is based on the Basket Currency Performance for each of the Basket Currencies, which is in turn based upon the formula set forth above. The Basket Currency Performances are dependent solely on such stated formula and not on any other formula that could be used for calculating currency performances.

•

THE ORIGINAL ISSUE PRICE OF THE SECURITIES INCLUDES THE AGENT’S COMMISSION AND THE ESTIMATED COSTS OF HEDGING OUR OBLIGATIONS UNDER THE SECURITIES THROUGH ONE OR MORE OF OUR AFFILIATES — The original issue price of the securities includes the agent’s commission and the estimated costs of hedging our obligations under the securities through one or more of our affiliates. As a result, the price, if any, at which Deutsche Bank AG or its affiliates may be willing to purchase securities from you, prior to maturity, in secondary market transactions, will likely be lower than the original issue price, and any such sale could result in a substantial loss to you.

•	THE SECURITIES ARE NOT DESIGNED TO BE SHORT-TERM TRADING INSTRUMENTS — The securities are not designed to be short-term trading instruments. Accordingly, you should be willing and able to hold your securities to maturity.

•

GAINS IN THE BASKET CURRENCY PERFORMANCE OF ONE OR MORE BASKET CURRENCIES MAY BE OFFSET BY LOSSES IN THE BASKET CURRENCY PERFORMANCE OF OTHER BASKET CURRENCIES — The securities are linked to the performance of the Basket, which is composed of five Basket Currencies with equal weightings. The performance of the Basket will be based on the appreciation or depreciation of the Basket as a whole, as measured by the Basket Performance formula set forth herein. Therefore, positive Basket Currency Performances of one or more Basket Currencies may be offset, in whole or in part, by negative Basket Currency Performances of one or more other Basket Currencies of lesser, equal or greater magnitude, which may result in an aggregate Basket Performance equal to or less than zero. You will lose 1% for eac h 1% that the Basket performance is less than -10%. Accordingly, you could lose up to 90% of your initial investment in the securities. The performance of the Basket is dependent on the Basket Currency Performance of each Basket Currency, which is in turn based upon the formula set forth above.

•

CURRENCY MARKETS MAY BE VOLATILE — 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. Significant changes, including changes in liquidity and prices, can occur in such markets within very short periods of time. Foreign currency rate risks include, but are not limited to, convertibility risk and market volatility and potential interference by foreign governments through regulation of

TS-6

local markets, foreign investment or particular transactions in foreign currency. These factors may affect the values of the Basket Currencies and the value of your securities in varying ways, and different factors may cause the values of the Basket Currencies and the volatility of their prices to move in inconsistent directions at inconsistent rates.

•

THE BASKET CURRENCIES ARE SUBJECT TO LEGAL AND REGULATORY RISKS — Legal and regulatory changes could adversely affect currency rates. In addition, many governmental agencies and regulatory organizations are authorized to take extraordinary actions in the event of market emergencies. It is not possible to predict the effect of any future legal or regulatory action relating to currency rates, but any such action could cause unexpected volatility and instability in currency markets with a substantial and adverse effect on the performance of the Basket Currencies and, consequently, the value of the securities and your Payment at Maturity.

•

THE BASKET CURRENCIES ARE SUBJECT TO EMERGING MARKETS’ POLITICAL AND ECONOMIC RISKS — The Brazilian real, the Indonesian rupiah, the Chinese renminbi and the Singapore dollar are currencies of emerging market countries. Emerging market countries are more exposed to the risk of swift political change and economic downturns than their industrialized counterparts. In recent years, emerging markets have undergone significant political, economic and social change. Such far-reaching political changes have resulted in constitutional and social tensions, and, in some cases, instability and reaction against market reforms have occurred. With respect to any emerging or developing nation, there is the possibility of nationalization, expropriation or confiscation, political changes, government r egulation and social instability. There can be no assurance that future political changes will not adversely affect the economic conditions of an emerging or developing-market nation. Political or economic instability is likely to have an adverse effect on the performance of such Basket Currencies, and, consequently, the return on the securities and your Payment at Maturity.

•

IF THE LIQUIDITY OF THE BASKET CURRENCIES IS LIMITED, THE VALUE OF THE SECURITIES WOULD LIKELY BE IMPAIRED — Currencies and derivatives contracts on currencies 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 Spot Rate for each Basket Currency, and therefore, on the return on your securities. Limited liquidity relating to any Basket Currency may also result in Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch, as calculation agent, being unable to determine the Basket Performance using its normal means. The resulting discretion by the calculation agent in determining the Basket Performance could, in turn, result in potential conflicts of interest and could affect the value of the securitie s or the Basket Performance.

•

POTENTIAL CONFLICTS OF INTEREST EXIST BECAUSE THE ISSUER AND THE CALCULATION AGENT FOR THE SECURITIES ARE THE SAME LEGAL ENTITY — Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch is the Issuer of the securities and the calculation agent for the securities. Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch carries out calculations necessary to calculate the Basket Performance and maintains some discretion as to how such calculations are made, in particular if the Spot Rate for any of the Basket Currencies (as set forth below) is not available. In addition, the Issuer may hedge its obligations under the securities. There can be no assurance that any determinations made by Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch in these various capacities will not affect the value of the securities or the performance of the Basket Currencies.< /div>

•

SUSPENSION OR DISRUPTIONS OF MARKET TRADING IN THE BASKET CURRENCIES MAY ADVERSELY AFFECT THE VALUE OF THE SECURITIES — The currency markets are subject to temporary distortions and disruptions due to various factors, including government regulation and intervention, the lack of liquidity in the markets and the participation of speculators. These circumstances could adversely affect the exchange rates of the Basket Currencies and, therefore, the value of the securities.

•

THE SECURITIES ARE SUBJECT TO RISKS DUE TO POTENTIAL LACK OF LIQUIDITY — The securities will not be listed on any securities exchange. Deutsche Bank AG or its affiliates may offer to purchase the securities 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 your securities easily. Because other dealers are not likely to make a secondary market for the securities, the price at which you may be able to trade your securities is likely to depend on the price, if any, at which Deutsche Bank AG or its affiliates are willing to buy the securities.

•	THE PAYMENT FORMULA FOR THE SECURITIES WILL NOT TAKE INTO ACCOUNT ALL DEVELOPMENTS IN THE BASKET CURRENCIES — Changes in the Basket Currencies during the term of the securities before the Final Valuation Date may not be reflected in the calculation of the Payment at

TS-7

Maturity. Generally, the calculation agent will calculate the Basket Performance by multiplying the Basket Currency Performance for each Basket Currency by its respective weighting and then taking the sum of the weighted Basket Currency Performances, as described above. The Basket Currency Performances will be calculated only as of the Final Valuation Date. As a result, the Basket Performance may be less than zero, or less than -10%, even if the Basket Currencies had moved favorably at certain times during the term of the securities before moving to unfavorable levels on the Final Valuation Date.

•

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 VALUE OF THE BASKET CURRENCIES TO WHICH THE SECURITIES ARE LINKED OR THE VALUE OF THE SECURITIES — We, our affiliates and agents publish research from time to time on financial markets and other matters that may influence the value of the securities, or express opinions or provide recommendations that may be inconsistent with purchasing or holding the securities. We, our affiliates and agents may publish research or other opinions that are inconsistent with the investment view implicit in the securities. Any research, opinions or recommendations expressed by us, o ur 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 securities and the Basket Currencies to which the securities are linked.

•

ECONOMIC AND MARKET FACTORS WILL IMPACT THE VALUE OF THE SECURITIES — We expect that, generally, the exchange rates for the Basket Currencies on any day will affect the value of the securities more than any other single factor. However, you should not expect the value of the securities in the secondary market to vary in proportion to the appreciation or depreciation of the Basket Currencies relative to the U.S. dollar. The value of the securities will be affected by a number of other factors that may either offset or magnify each other, including:

the expected volatility of the Basket Currencies and the U.S. dollar, as Reference Currency;

the time to maturity of the securities;

the exchange rates and the volatility of the exchange rate between each Basket Currency and the U.S. dollar;

interest and yield rates in the market generally and in the markets of the Basket Currencies and the U.S. dollar;

a variety of economic, financial, political, regulatory or judicial events;

supply and demand for the securities; and

our creditworthiness, including actual or anticipated downgrades in our credit ratings.

•

HISTORICAL PERFORMANCE OF THE BASKET CURRENCIES SHOULD NOT BE TAKEN AS AN INDICATION OF THE FUTURE PERFORMANCE OF THE BASKET CURRENCIES DURING THE TERM OF THE SECURITIES — It is impossible to predict whether any of the USD/BRL Spot Rate, the USD/NOK Spot Rate, the USD/IDR Spot Rate, the USD/CNY Spot Rate and the USD/SGD Spot Rate will rise or fall. The USD/BRL Spot Rate, the USD/NOK Spot Rate, the USD/IDR Spot Rate, the USD/CNY Spot Rate and the USD/SGD Spot Rate will be influenced by complex and interrelated political, economic, financial and other factors.

•

MARKET DISRUPTIONS MAY ADVERSELY AFFECT YOUR RETURN — The calculation agent may, in its sole discretion, determine that the markets have been affected in a manner that prevents it from determining the Basket Performance in the manner described herein, and calculating the amount that we are required to pay you upon maturity, or from properly hedging its obligations under the securities. These events may include disruptions or suspensions of trading in the markets as a whole or general inconvertibility or non-transferability of one or more currencies. If the calculation agent, in its sole discretion, determines that any of these events prevents us or any of our affiliates from properly hedging our obligations under the securities or prevents the calculation agent from determining the Basket Performance or Payment at Maturity in the ordinary manner, the calculation agent will determine the Basket Performance or Payment at Maturity in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner, and it is possible that the Final Valuation Date and the Maturity Date will be postponed, which may adversely affect the return on your securities. For example, if the source for a Spot Rate is not available on the Final Valuation Date, the calculation agent may determine the exchange rate for such date, and such determination may adversely affect the return on your securities.

TS-8

•

TRADING AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS BY US OR OUR AFFILIATES IN THE FOREIGN EXCHANGE AND CURRENCY DERIVATIVE MARKET MAY IMPAIR THE VALUE OF THE SECURITIES — We or one or more of our affiliates may hedge our foreign currency exposure from the securities by entering into foreign exchange and currency derivative transactions, such as over-the-counter options. Such trading and hedging activities may affect the Spot Rate and make it less likely that you will receive a positive return on your investment in the securities. It is possible that we or our affiliates could receive substantial returns from these hedging activities while the value of the securities declines. We or our affiliates may also engage in trading in instruments linked to the Spot Rate on a regular basis as part of our general broker-dealer and other businesses, for proprietary accounts, for other accounts u nder management or to facilitate transactions for customers, including block transactions. We or our affiliates may also issue or underwrite other securities or financial or derivative instruments with returns linked or related to changes in the Spot Rate. By introducing competing products into the marketplace in this manner, we or our affiliates could adversely affect the value of the securities.

•

THE U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES OF AN INVESTMENT IN THE SECURITIES ARE UNCLEAR — There is no direct legal authority regarding the proper U.S. federal income tax treatment of the securities, and we do not plan to request a ruling from the IRS. Consequently, significant aspects of the tax treatment of the securities are uncertain, and the IRS or a court might not agree with the treatment of the securities as prepaid financial contracts. If the IRS were successful in asserting an alternative treatment for the securities, the tax consequences of ownership and disposition of the securities might be affected materially and adversely. In addition, as described above under “Tax Consequences,” in 2007 Treasury and the IRS released a notice requesting comments on various issues regarding the U.S. federal income tax treatment of 220;prepaid forward contracts” and similar instruments, which may include the securities. Any Treasury regulations or other guidance promulgated after consideration of these issues could materially and adversely affect the tax consequences of an investment in the securities, possibly with retroactive effect.

Prospective investors should review carefully the section of the accompanying product supplement entitled “U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences” and consult their tax advisers regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the securities (including possible alternative treatments and the issues presented by the 2007 notice and ruling), as well as tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, local or non-U.S. taxing jurisdiction.

Spot Rates

The USD/BRL Spot Rate on each date of calculation will be the U.S. dollar/Brazilian real offered rate for U.S. dollars, expressed as the amount of Brazilian reais per one U.S. dollar, for settlement in two business days, as reported by Banco Central do Brasil on SISBACEN Data System under transaction code PTAX-800 (“Consulta de Cambio” or Exchange Rate Inquiry), Option 5 (“Cotacoes para Contabilidade” or Rates for Accounting Purposes), by approximately 6:00 p.m., São Paulo time, on such date of calculation, which appears on Reuters Page “BRFR” or any successor page.

The USD/NOK Spot Rate on each date of calculation will be the U.S. dollar/Norwegian krone mid-spot rate, expressed as the amount of Norwegian kroner per one U.S. dollar, for settlement in two business days, as reported by the W.M.

The USD/IDR Spot Rate on each date of calculation will be the U.S dollar/Indonesian rupiah spot rate at 11:00 a.m. Singapore time, expressed as the amount of Indonesian rupiah, per one U.S. dollar, for settlement in two business days, reported by the Association of Banks in Singapore which, appears on the Reuters Page “ABSIRFIX01” to the right of the caption “Spot” under the column “IDR” at approximately 11:30 a.m., Singapore time, on such date of calculation.

The USD/CNY Spot Rate on each date of calculation will be the U.S. dollar/Chinese renminbi official fixing rate, expressed as the amount of Chinese renminbi per one U.S. dollar, for settlement in two business days, as reported by the People’s Bank of China, Beijing, People’s Republic of China, which appears on the Reuters Screen “SAEC” Page opposite the symbol “USDCNY=” at approximately 9:15 a.m., Beijing time, on such date of calculation.

The USD/SGD Spot Rate on each date of calculation will be the U.S. dollar/Singapore dollar spot rate at 11:00 a.m. Singapore time, expressed as the amount of Singapore dollars per one U.S. dollar, for settlement in two business days, reported by the Association of Banks in Singapore, which appears on the Reuters Page “ABSIRFIX01” to the right of the caption “Spot” under the column “SGD” at approximately 11:30 a.m., Singapore time, on such date of calculation.

If any of the foregoing Spot Rates is unavailable (or is published in error), the Spot Rate for such Basket Currency shall be selected by the calculation agent in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner.

TS-10

Market Disruption Events

The calculation agent may, in its sole discretion, determine that an event has occurred that prevents it from valuing one or more of the Basket Currencies or the Payment at Maturity in the manner initially provided for herein. These events may include disruptions or suspensions of trading in the markets as a whole or general inconvertibility or non-transferability of one or more Basket Currencies. If the calculation agent, in its sole discretion, determines that any of these events prevents us or our affiliates from properly hedging our obligations under the securities or prevents the calculation agent from determining such value or amount in the ordinary manner, the calculation agent will determine such value or amount in good faith and in a commercially reasonable manner, and it is possible that the Final Valuation Date and Maturity Date may be postponed, which may adversely affect the return on your securities. For example, if the source for the Spot Rate of a Basket Currency is not available on the Final Valuation Date, the calculation agent may determine the exchange rate for such date, and such determination may adversely affect the return on your securities.

Historical Information

The following charts show the retrospective historical performance of the Basket, as well as historical individual exchange rates for each of the Basket Currencies against the U.S. dollar. In each case, the charts use exchange rates that are based on Bloomberg end-of-day quotations for the period-end dates set forth in the following tables and not on the Spot Rates set forth above. The retrospective data for the performance of the Basket was measured retrospectively from January 3, 2000 to May 4, 2010. The historical high, low and period-end exchange rates for each Basket Currency are shown for the period from January 3, 2000 through May 4, 2010. These retrospective and historical data are for illustrative purposes only and are not indicative of the historical or future values of the Spot Rates (which are determined as set forth herein), the histo rical or future performance of the Basket Currencies or the Basket. The numbers appearing in the below tables may have been rounded for ease of analysis. We cannot give you any assurance that the Basket Performance will be greater than zero or that you will receive any positive return on your investment. Any historical upward or downward trend in the exchange rates set forth in the following charts during any period set forth below is not an indication that the Spot Rates or Basket Performance is more or less likely to increase or decrease at any time during the term of the securities.

As set forth in the following tables, for each Basket Currency, a higher exchange rate for a given year indicates a weakening of the relevant Basket Currency relative to the U.S. dollar, while a lower exchange rate indicates a strengthening of that Basket Currency relative to the U.S. dollar. The graphs following each Basket Currency’s exchange rate table set forth the historical exchange rate performance of each respective Basket Currency for the period from January 3, 2000 through May 4, 2010. The daily exchange rates published by Bloomberg may differ from the Spot Rates for the applicable Basket Currency. We will not use Bloomberg to determine the applicable Spot Rate for each of the Basket Currencies.

Past performance is not indicative of future performance.
