What Is the Return on the Notes at Maturity Assuming a Range of Performance for the Index?

The following table and graph illustrate the hypothetical return at maturity on the notes.  The “return” as used in this term sheet is the number, expressed as a percentage, that results from comparing the Payment at Maturity per $1,000 Face Amount of notes to $1,000.  The hypothetical returns set forth below assume an Initial Index Level of 1,060.00, an Upside Leverage Factor of 2 and a Maximum Return on the notes of 9.86%.  The hypothetical returns set forth below are for illustrative purposes only. The actual return will be based on the Index Return, determined using the Index closing levels on the specified Averaging Dates.  The numbers appearing in the following table, graph and examples have been rounded for ease of analysis.

Ending Index Level	Index Return	Return on Notes (%)	Payment at Maturity ($)
2,120.00	100.00%	9.86%	$1,098.60

The following examples illustrate how the returns set forth in the table and graph above are calculated.

Example 1: The level of the Index increases from the Initial Index Level of 1,060.00 to an Ending Index Level of 1,086.50.  Because the Ending Index Level of 1,086.50 is greater than the Initial Index Level of 1,060.00 and the Index Return of 2.50% multiplied by 2 does not exceed the hypothetical Maximum Return of 9.86%, the investor receives a Payment at Maturity of $1,050.00 per $1,000 Face Amount of notes calculated as follows:

$1,000 + [$1,000 x (2.50% x 2)] = $1,050.00

Example 2: The level of the Index increases from the Initial Index Level of 1,060.00 to an Ending Index Level of 1,16600.  Because the Index Return of 10.00%multiplied by 2 exceeds the hypothetical Maximum Return of 9.86%, the investor receives a Payment at Maturity of $1,098.60 per $1,000 Face Amount of notes, the maximum payment on the notes.

Example 3: The level of the Index decreases from the Initial Index Level of 1,060.00 to an Ending Index Level of 954.00.  Because the Ending Index Level of 954.00is less than the Initial Index Level of 1,060.00, the Index Return is negative and the investor will receive a Payment at Maturity of $900.00 per $1,000 Face Amount of notes calculated as follows:

$1,000 + ($1,000 x -10.00%) = $900.00

Selected Purchase Considerations

· APPRECIATION POTENTIAL – The notes provide the opportunity to enhance equity returns by multiplying a positive Index Return by 2, up to the Maximum Return on the notes of 9.86%, resulting in a maximum Payment at Maturity of $1,098.60 for every $1,000 Face Amount of notes.  The actual Maximum Return on the notes will be set on the Trade Date and will not be less than 9.86%.  Because the notes are our senior unsecured obligations, payment of any amount at maturity is subject to our ability to pay our obligations as they become due.

· RETURN LINKED TO THE PERFORMANCE OF THE S&P 500® INDEX – The return on the notes, which may be positive, zero or negative, is linked to 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.

· TAX CONSEQUENCES — You should review carefully the section of the accompanying product supplement entitled “U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences,” which contains the opinion of our special tax counsel, Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, with respect to the tax consequences of an investment in the notes. Although the tax consequences of an investment in the notes are uncertain, based on that opinion we believe it is reasonable to treat the notes 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 notes, other than pursuant to a sale or exchange. Your gain or loss on the notes should be short-term capital gain or loss. If, however, the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) were successful in asserting an alternative treatment for the notes, the tax consequences of ownership and disposition of the notes 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.

In 2007, Treasury and the IRS released anotice requesting comments on various issues regarding the U.S. federal income tax treatmentof “prepaid forward contracts” and similar instruments, such as the notes. The noticefocuses in particular on whether to require holders of these instruments to accrue income overthe term of their investment. It also asks for comments on a number of related topics, includingthe character of income or loss with respect to these instruments; the relevance of factors suchas the nature of the underlying property to which the instruments are linked; and the degree, if any, to which income (including any mandated accruals) realized by non U.S. persons should be subject to withholding tax. While the noticerequests comments on appropriate transition rules and effective dates, any Treasury regulationsor other guidance promulgated after consideration of these issues could materially andadversely affect the tax consequences of an investment in the notes, possibly withretroactive effect.

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. Prospective investors should consult their tax advisers regarding the U.S. federal tax consequences of  an investment in the notes (including possible alternative treatments and the issues presented by the 2007 notice), 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 notes involves significant risks.  Investing in the notes is not equivalent to investing directly in the Index or any of the component stocks of the Index.  These risks are explained in more detail in the “Risk Factors” section of the accompanying product supplement.

· YOUR INVESTMENT IN THE NOTES MAY RESULT IN A LOSS – The notes do not guarantee any return of your investment.  The return on the notes at maturity is linked to the performance of the Index and will depend on whether, and the extent to which, the Index Return is positive or negative.  Your investment will be fully exposed to any decline in the Ending Index Level as compared to the Initial Index Level.

· YOUR MAXIMUM GAIN ON THE NOTES IS LIMITED TO THE MAXIMUM RETURN – If the Ending Index Level is greater than the Initial Index Level, for each $1,000 Face Amount of notes, you will receive at maturity $1,000 plus an additional amount that will not exceed a predetermined percentage of the Face Amount, regardless of the appreciation in the Index, which may be significant.  We refer to this percentage as the Maximum Return, which will be set on the Trade Date and will not be less than 9.86%.

· THE NOTES ARE SUBJECT TO OUR CREDITWORTHINESS —  The notes 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 notes, 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 notes 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 notes.

· TRADING AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS BY US OR OUR AFFILIATES IN THE EQUITY AND EQUITY DERIVATIVE MARKETS MAY IMPAIR THE VALUE OF THE NOTES — We or one or more of our affiliates may hedge our exposure from the notes by entering into equity and equity derivative transactions, such as over-the-counter options or exchange-traded instruments. Such trading and hedging activities may affect the Index and make it less likely that you will receive a return on your investment in the notes. It is possible that we or our affiliates could receive substantial returns from these hedging activities while the value of the notes declines. We or our affiliates may also engage in trading in instruments linked to the Index on a regular basis as part of our general broker-dealer and other businesses, for proprietary accounts, for other accounts under 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 the Index. By introducing competing products into the marketplace inthis manner, we or our affiliates could adversely affect the value of the notes. Any of the foregoing activities described in this paragraph may reflect trading strategies that differ from, or are in direct opposition to, the trading strategy of investors in the notes.

· THE NOTES DO NOT PAY COUPONS – Unlike ordinary debt securities, the notes do not pay coupons and do not guarantee any return of the initial investment at maturity.

· NO DIVIDEND PAYMENTS OR VOTING RIGHTS – As a holder of the notes, you will not have voting rights or rights to receive cash dividends or other distributions or other rights that holders of stocks comprising the S&P 500® Index would have.

· CERTAIN BUILT-IN COSTS ARE LIKELY TO ADVERSELY AFFECT THE VALUE OF THE NOTES PRIOR TO MATURITY – While the Payment at Maturity described in this term sheet is based on the full Face Amount of your notes, the original issue price of the notes includes the agent’s commission and the cost of hedging our obligations under the notes through one or more of our affiliates.  Such cost includes our or our affiliates’ expected cost of providing such hedge, as well as the profit we or our affiliates expect to realize in consideration for assuming the risks inherent in providing such hedge. As a result, the price, if any, at which Deutsche Bank (or its affiliates), will be willing to purchase notes from you in secondary market transactions, if at all, will likely be lower than the original issue price, and any sale prior to the maturity date could result in a substantial loss to you.  The notes are not designed to be short-term trading instruments.  Accordingly, you should be able and willing to hold your notes to maturity.

5

· LACK OF LIQUIDITY – The notes will not be listed on any securities exchange. Deutsche Bank (or its affiliates) intends to offer to purchase the notes in the secondary market but is not required to do so.  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 (or its affiliates) is willing to buy the notes. If you have to sell your notes prior to maturity, you may not be able to do so or you may have to sell them at a substantial loss.

· POTENTIAL CONFLICTS – 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 level of the Index on any day, the value of the notes will be affected by a number of economic and market factors that may either offset or magnify each other, including:

· the expected volatility of the Index;

· the time to maturity of the notes;

· the dividend rate on the common stocks underlying the Index;

· interest and yield rates in the market generally;

· geopolitical conditions and a variety of economic, financial, political, regulatory or judicial events; and

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

· THE U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES OF AN INVESTMENT IN THE NOTES ARE UNCLEAR – There is no direct legal authority regarding the proper U.S. federal income tax treatment of the notes, and we do not plan to request a ruling from the IRS. Consequently, significant aspects of the tax treatment of the notes are uncertain, and the IRS or a court might not agree with the treatment of the notes as prepaid financial contracts. If the IRS were successful in asserting an alternative treatment for the notes, the tax consequences of ownership and disposition of the notes might be affected materially and adversely. 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 “prepaid forward contracts” and similar instruments, such as the notes. 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 notes, 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 notes (including possible alternative treatments and the issues presented by the 2007 notice), as well as tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, local or non-U.S. taxing jurisdiction.

Use of Proceeds and Hedging

Part of the net proceeds we receive from the sale of the notes will be used in connection with hedging our obligations under the notes through one or more of our affiliates.  The hedging or trading activities of our affiliates on or prior to the Trade Date and on the Averaging Dates could adversely affect the value of the Index and, as a result, could decrease the amount you may receive on the notes at maturity.

Historical Information

The following graph sets forth the historical performance of the S&P 500® Index based on the daily Index closing levels from July 7, 2000 through July 7, 2010.  The Index closing level on July 7, 2010 was 1,060.27.  We obtained the Index closing levels below from Bloomberg, and we have not participated in the preparation of, or verified, such information.

The historical levels of the Index should not be taken as an indication of future performance, and no assurance can be given as to the Index closing level on any of the Averaging Dates.  We cannot give you assurance that the performance of the Index will result in the return of any of your initial investment.

Supplemental Plan of Distribution

JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and J.P. Morgan Securities Inc. will act as placement agents for the notes and will receive a fee from the Issuer that will not exceed $2.50per $1,000 Face Amount of notes.
