Crude Oil Exchange Traded Notes [GRAPHIC OMITTED] Description Deutsche Bank is committed to giving investors cost-effective and convenient access to sophisticated investment products. PowerShares DB Crude Oil Long Exchange Traded Note (Symbol: OLO), PowerShares DB Crude Oil Short Exchange Traded Note (Symbol: SZO) and PowerShares DB Crude Oil Double Short Exchange Traded Note (Symbol: DTO), (collectively, the "PowerShares DB Crude Oil ETNs") are the first United States exchange traded products that provide investors with a cost-effective and convenient way to take a long, short or leveraged view on the performance of an oil based commodity index. All of the PowerShares DB Crude Oil ETNs are based on a total return version of the Deutsche Bank Liquid Commodity Index -- Oil (the "Index"), which is designed to reflect the performance of certain crude oil futures contracts plus the returns from investing in 3 month United States Treaury Bills. The Long ETN is based on the Optimum Yield[] version of the Index, and the Short and Double Short ETNs are based on the standard version of the Index. The Optimum Yield[] version of the index attempts to minimize the negative effects of contango and maximize the positive effects of backwardation by applying flexible roll rules to pick a new futures contract when a contract expires. The standard version of the index, which does not attempt to minimize the negative effects of contango and maximize the positive effects of backwardation, uses static roll rules that dictate that an expiring futures contract must be replaced with a contract having a pre-defined expiration date. Investors can buy and sell PowerShares DB Crude Oil ETNs at market price on the NYSE Arca exchange or receive a cash payment at the scheduled maturity or early redemption based on the performance of the index less investor fees. Investors may redeem PowerShares DB ETNs in blocks of no less than 200,000 securities and integral multiples of 50,000 securities thereafter subject to the procedures described in the pricing supplement which include a fee of up to $0.03 per security.

Index history is for illustrative purposes only and does not represent actual PowerShares DB Crude Oil ETN performance. The inception date of the Deutsche Bank Liquid Commodity Index -- Oil is Jan. 12, 2004. The inception date of the Index's Optimum Yield version is May 24, 2006. Index history is based on a combination of the monthly returns from the relevant Commodity Index (as defined below) 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 Crude Oil ETNs, less the investor fee. Index history for the Long ETN is based on the Deutsche Bank Liquid Commodity Index -- Optimum Yield Crude Oil[], and index history for the Short and Double Short ETNs is based on the standard version of the Deutsche Bank Liquid Commodity Index -- Light Crude[] (the "Commodity Indexes"). The Commodity Indexes are intended to reflect changes in the market value of certain crude oil futures contracts. The T-Bill Index is intended to approximate returns from investing in 3-month United States Treasury bills on a rolling basis. Index history does not reflect any transaction costs or expenses. Indexes are unmanaged, and you cannot invest directly in an index. PAST PERFORMANCE DOES NOT GUARANTEE FUTURE RESULTS. (2)The PowerShares DB Crude Oil ETNs are senior unsecured obligations of Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch, and the amount due on the PowerShares DB Crude Oil ETNs is dependent on Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch's ability to pay. The PowerShares DB Crude Oil ETNs are riskier than ordinary unsecured debt securities and have no principal protection. Risks of investing in the PowerShares DB Crude Oil ETNs include limited portfolio diversification, uncertain principal repayment, trade price fluctuations, illiquidity and leveraged losses. Investing in the PowerShares DB Crude Oil 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 Crude Oil ETNs even if the value of the relevant index has increased. If at any time the redemption value of the PowerShares DB Crude Oil ETNs is zero, your Investment will expire worthless. The PowerShares DB Crude Oil Double Short ETN is a leveraged investment. As such, it is 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. The PowerShares DB Crude Oil ETNs may be sold throughout the day on NYSE Arca through any brokerage account. There are restrictions on the minimum number of PowerShares DB Crude Oil 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 Crude Oil ETNs. Sales in the secondary market may result in losses. The PowerShares DB Crude Oil ETNs are concentrated in crude oil futures contracts. The market value of the PowerShares DB Crude Oil ETNs may be influenced by many unpredictable factors, including, among other things, volatile oil prices, changes in supply and demand relationships, changes in interest rates, and monetary and other governmental actions. The PowerShares DB Crude Oil 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. For a description of the main risks, see "Risk Factors" in the applicable pricing supplement.

The PowerShares DB 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 PowerShares DB 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 2

performances. Certain marketing services may be provided for these products by Invesco Aim Distributors, Inc. or its affiliate, Invesco PowerShares Capital Management LLC.
