What is the Payment Amount at Maturity of the Securities Assuming a Range of Performance for the Fund?

The following table illustrates a range of hypothetical Payments at Maturity of the securities. The “payment 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 securities to $1,000. The hypothetical payment returns set forth below assume an Initial Fund Level of 23.00, a Lower Barrier of 12.65 (55% of the Initial Fund Level), a Fund Return Cap of 70%, and a Bonus of 40%. The actual Initial Fund Level, Lower Barrier and Fund Return Cap will be set on the Trade Date. The hypothetical payment returns set forth below are for illustrative purposes only and are not the actual payment returns applicable to a purchaser of the securities. The numbers appearing in the following table and examples have been rounded for ease of analysis.

The following hypothetical examples illustrate how the Payments at Maturity set forth in the table above are calculated.

Example 1: The closing level of the Fund increases by 25% from the Initial Fund Level of 23.00 to an Ending Fund Level of 28.75, and:

• no Barrier Event occurs. Because no Barrier Event occurs and the Bonus is greater than the Fund Return, the investor receives a Payment at Maturity of $1,400.00 per $1,000 Face Amount of securities, calculated as follows:

$1,000  +  ($1,000  x  Bonus)  =

$1,000  +  ($1,000  x  40.00%)  =  $1,400.00

• a Barrier Event occurs. Because a Barrier Event occurs, the investor receives a Payment at Maturity of $1,250.00 per $1,000 Face Amount of securities, calculated as follows:

$1,000  +  ($1,000  x  Fund Return)  =

$1,000  +  ($1,000  x  25.00%)  =  $1,250.00

Example 2: The closing level of the Fund increases by 50% from the Initial Fund Level of 23.00 to an Ending Fund Level of 34.50, and:

• no Barrier Event occurs. Because no Barrier Event occurs and the Fund Return is greater than the Bonus but less than the Fund Return Cap, the investor receives a Payment at Maturity of $1,500.00 per $1,000 Face Amount of securities, calculated as follows:

$1,000  +  ($1,000  x  Fund Return)  =

$1,000  +  ($1,000  x  50.00%)  =  $1,500.00

• a Barrier Event occurs. Because a Barrier Event occurs, the investor receives a Payment at Maturity of $1,500.00 per $1,000 Face Amount of securities, calculated as follows:

$1,000  +  ($1,000  x  Fund Return)  =

$1,000  +  ($1,000  x  50.00%)  =  $1,500.00

Example 3: The closing level of the Fund increases by 85% from the Initial Fund Level of 23.00 to an Ending Fund Level of 42.55, and:

• no Barrier Event occurs. Because no Barrier Event occurs and the Fund Return is greater than the Bonus and the Fund Return Cap, the Fund Return is limited to the Fund Return Cap of 70%. The investor receives a Payment at Maturity of $1,700.00 per $1,000 Face Amount of securities, calculated as follows:

$1,000  +  ($1,000  x  Fund Return)  =

$1,000  +  ($1,000  x  70.00%)  =  $1,700.00

• a Barrier Event occurs. The Fund Return is limited to the Fund Return Cap of 70%. The investor receives a Payment at Maturity of $1,700.00 per $1,000 Face Amount of securities, calculated as follows:

$1,000  +  ($1,000  x  Fund Return)  =

$1,000  +  ($1,000  x  70.00%)  =  $1,700.00

TS-3

Example 4: The closing level of the Fund decreases by 25% from the Initial Fund Level of 23.00 to an Ending Fund Level of 17.25, and

• no Barrier Event occurs. Because no Barrier Event occurs and the Bonus is greater than the Fund Return, the investor receives a Payment at Maturity of $1,400.00 per $1,000 Face Amount of securities, calculated as follows:

$1,000  +  ($1,000  x  Bonus)  =

$1,000  +  ($1,000  x  40.00%)  =  $1,400.00

• a Barrier Event occurs. Because a Barrier Event occurs, the investor receives a Payment at Maturity of $750.00 per $1,000 Face Amount of securities, calculated as follows:

$1,000  +  ($1,000  x  Fund Return)  =

$1,000  +  ($1,000  x  -25.00%)  =  $750.00

Example 5: The closing level of the Fund decreases by 100% from the Initial Fund Level of 23.00 to an Ending Fund Level of 0. Because the Ending Fund Level is 0 a Barrier Event has occurred. The investor receives a Payment at Maturity of $0 per $1,000 Face Amount of securities, calculated as follows:

$1,000  +  ($1,000  x  Fund Return)  =

$1,000  +  ($1,000  x  -100.00%)  =  $0

Selected Purchase Considerations

• APPRECIATION POTENTIAL IS LIMITED BY THE FUND RETURN CAP — You will not benefit from any appreciation of the Fund beyond the Fund Return Cap of between 60% and 80% (to be determined on the Trade Date). Therefore, the maximum Payment at Maturity you can receive is between $1,600.00 and $1,800.00 (to be determined on the Trade Date) for each $1,000 Face Amount of securities. 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.

• FULL EXPOSURE TO NEGATIVE FUND PERFORMANCE IF A BARRIER EVENT OCCURS — If a Barrier Event does not occur, your Payment at Maturity per security will equal at least the Bonus plus the $1,000 Face Amount, even if the Fund Return is negative. If a Barrier Event does occur, your investment will be fully exposed to any decline in the Ending Fund Level determined on the Final Valuation Date as compared to the Initial Fund Level. You may lose your entire investment in the securities if a Barrier Event occurs and there is a significant decline in the closing level of the Fund.

• RETURN LINKED TO THE PERFORMANCE OF THE UNITED STATES OIL FUND, LP — The return on the securities is linked to the performance of the United States Oil Fund, LP. The Fund invests in oil futures contracts and other investments with the aim of tracking the movements of light, sweet crude oil delivered to Cushing, Oklahoma. For more information on the Fund, please see the information set forth under “United States Oil Fund, LP” in this term sheet.

• UNCERTAIN TAX CONSEQUENCES — You should review carefully the section of the accompanying product supplement entitled “Certain 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. Based on current law, under this treatment you should not be required to recognize taxable income prior to the maturity of your

TS-4

securities, other than pursuant to a sale or exchange, and your gain or loss on the securities should be long-term capital gain or loss if you hold the securities for more than one year, subject to the potential application of the “constructive ownership” regime discussed below. If, however, the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) were successful in asserting an alternative treatment for the securities, the timing and/or character of income on the securities might differ materially and adversely from the description herein. We do not plan to request a ruling from the IRS, and no assurance can be given that the IRS or a court will agree with the tax treatment described in this term sheet and the accompanying product supplement.

Even if the treatment of the securities as prepaid financial contracts is respected, the securities could be treated as subject to the “constructive ownership” regime of Section 1260 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). In that case, all or a portion of any long-term capital gain you would otherwise recognize on a sale, exchange or retirement of the securities would be recharacterized as ordinary income to the extent such gain exceeded the “net underlying long-term capital gain” (which, although the matter is unclear, may equal the amount of long-term capital gain you would have recognized if you had invested the face amount of the securities sold, exchanged or retired in units of the Fund on the issue date and sold those units for their fair market value on the date your securities are sold, exchanged, or retired). Any long-term capital gain recharacterized as ordinary income would be treated as accruing at a constant rate over the term you held the securities in question, and you would be subject to an interest charge in respect of the deemed tax liability on the income treated as accruing in prior tax years.

On December 7, 2007, the Department of the Treasury (“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 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. holders should be subject to withholding tax; and whether these instruments are or should be subject to the “constructive ownership” regime. 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.

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. Both U.S. and non-U.S. holders should consult their tax advisers regarding all aspects of the U.S. federal tax consequences of investing in the securities (including possible alternative treatments, the potential application of the “constructive ownership” regime, and the issues presented by the December 7, 2007 notice), as well as any tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, local or non-U.S. taxing jurisdiction.

TS-5

Selected Risk Considerations

An investment in the securities involves significant risks. Investing in the securities is not equivalent to investing directly in the Fund or any of the components of the Fund. These risks are explained in more detail in the “Risk Factors” section of the accompanying product supplement.

• YOUR INVESTMENT IN THE SECURITIES MAY RESULT IN A LOSS —The securities do not guarantee any return of your initial investment. The return on the securities at maturity is linked to the performance of the Fund and will depend on whether a Barrier Event occurs and the extent to which the Fund Return is positive or negative. If a Barrier Event occurs, your investment will be fully exposed to any decline in the Ending Fund Level determined on the Final Valuation Date as compared to the Initial Fund Level. You may lose your entire investment in the securities if a Barrier Event occurs and there is a significant decline in the Fund.

• APPRECIATION POTENTIAL IS LIMITED BY THE FUND RETURN CAP — You will not benefit from any appreciation of the Fund beyond the Fund Return Cap of between 60% and 80% (to be determined on the Trade Date). Therefore, the maximum Payment at Maturity you can receive is between $1,600.00 and $1,800.00 (to be determined on the Trade Date) for each $1,000 Face Amount of securities. 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.

• THE SECURITIES DO NOT PAY INTEREST — Unlike ordinary debt securities, the securities do not pay interest and do not guarantee any return of your initial investment at maturity.

• THE FUND HAS LIMITED PERFORMANCE HISTORY — Publication of the Fund began on April 10, 2006. Therefore, the Fund has very limited performance history and no actual investment which allowed tracking of the performance of the Fund was possible before this date.

• THE FUND IS SUBJECT TO STRATEGY RISK — The Fund seeks to track price movements of West Texas Intermediate (“WTI”) light, sweet crude oil such that changes in percentage terms of the net asset value of the Fund units reflect changes in percentage terms of the spot price of WTI light, sweet crude oil delivered to Cushing, Oklahoma, less the Fund’s expenses.

The assets of the Fund consist primarily of investments in futures contracts for light, sweet crude oil, other types of crude oil, heating oil, gasoline, natural gas, and other petroleum-based fuels that are traded on the New York Mercantile Exchange, IntercontinentalExchange^® (“ICE”) Futures or other U.S. and foreign exchanges (collectively, “Oil Futures Contracts”) and other oil interests such as cash-settled options on oil futures contracts, forward contracts for oil, and over-the-counter transactions that are based on the price of oil, other petroleum-based fuels, oil futures contracts and indices based on the foregoing (collectively, “Other Oil Interests” and together with oil futures contracts, “Oil Interests”). The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing in a mix of Oil Futures Contracts and Other Oil Interests such that changes in the net asset value of the Fund will closely track the changes in the price of a specified oil futures contract (the “Benchmark Oil Futures Contract”). The investment strategy of the General Partner reflects the belief that Benchmark Oil Futures Contracts historically have exhibited a close correlation with the spot price of WTI light, sweet crude oil.

TS-6

It is possible that movements in the Fund closing level may differ – perhaps significantly – from movements in the spot price of WTI light, sweet crude oil delivered to Cushing, Oklahoma. This could happen if the Fund closing level does not correlate closely with the Fund’s net asset value; changes in the Fund’s net asset value do not closely correlate with changes in the price of Benchmark Oil Futures Contract; or changes in the price of the Benchmark Oil Futures Contract do not closely correlate with changes in the cash or spot price of light, sweet crude oil.

• PAST PERFORMANCE OF THE FUND OR OF THE OIL INTERESTS HELD BY THE FUND IS NO GUIDE TO FUTURE PERFORMANCE — The actual performance of the Fund or of the Oil Interests held by the Fund over the life of the securities, as well as the Payment at Maturity, may bear little relation to the historical closing levels of the Fund or of the Oil Interests held by the Fund, and may bear little relation to the hypothetical payment return examples set forth elsewhere in this term sheet. We cannot predict the future performance of the Fund or of the Oil Interests held by the Fund.

• THE PRICE OF CRUDE OIL MAY CHANGE UNPREDICTABLY AND AFFECT THE VALUE OF THE SECURITIES IN UNFORESEEABLE WAYS — The Fund Closing Level is linked closely to the price of WTI light, sweet crude oil. The price of crude oil is subject to volatile price movements over short periods of time and is generally affected by numerous factors including:

• demand for refined petroleum products by consumers, as well as the agricultural, manufacturing and transportation industries;

• economic conditions that affect the end-use of crude oil as a refined product such as transport fuel, industrial fuel and in-home heating fuel;

• U.S. government regulations, such as environmental or consumption policies;

• geopolitical events, labor activity and, in particular, direct government intervention such as embargos, supply disruptions in major oil producing regions of the world; production decisions by the Organization of Oil and Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) and other crude oil producers, and cessation of hostilities that may exist in countries producing oil;

• sudden disruptions in the supply of oil due to war, natural events, accidents or acts of terrorism; and

• the introduction of new or previously withheld supplies into the market or the introduction of substitute products or commodities.

• LACK OF CORRELATION WITH WORLD CRUDE OIL PRICES — WTI light, sweet crude oil has also demonstrated a lack of correlation with world crude oil prices due to structural differences between the U.S. market for crude oil and the international market for crude oil. The price of WTI light, sweet crude oil may be more volatile than world crude oil prices generally.

• MANY ECONOMIC AND MARKET FACTORS WILL IMPACT THE VALUE OF THE SECURITIES — In addition to the closing level of the Fund during the Observation Period, the value of the securities will be affected by a number of economic and market factors that may either offset or magnify each other, including:

• whether the Fund closing level is lower than the Lower Barrier on any trading day during the Observation Period;

• the expected volatility of the Fund;

• the time remaining to maturity of the securities;

TS-7

• supply and demand for crude oil;

• interest and yield rates in the market generally and in the markets of the Oil Interests underlying the Fund, and the volatility of those rates;

• a variety of economic, financial, political, regulatory or judicial events that affect the Oil Interests underlying the Fund or commodities markets or markets generally;

• the composition of the Fund and any changes to the Oil Interests underlying it;

• supply and demand for the securities; and

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

• ANTI-DILUTION PROTECTION IS LIMITED — The calculation agent will make adjustments to the Share Adjustment Factor (as defined in the accompanying product supplement), which will initially be set at 1.0, for certain events affecting units of the Fund. See “Description of Securities — Anti-Dilution Adjustments for Funds” in the accompanying product supplement. The calculation agent is not required, however, to make such adjustments in response to all events that could affect units of the Fund. If an event occurs that does not require the calculation agent to make an adjustment, the value of the securities may be materially and adversely affected.

• THERE IS NO AFFILIATION BETWEEN THE FUND AND US, AND WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DISCLOSURE BY THE FUND — We are not affiliated with the Fund or the issuers of the Oil Interests held by the Fund. However, we and our affiliates may currently or from time to time in the future engage in business with many of the issuers of the Oil Interests held by the Fund. Nevertheless, neither we nor our affiliates assume any responsibility for the accuracy or the completeness of any information about the Oil Interests held by the Fund or any of the issuers of the Oil Interests held by the Fund. You, as an investor in the securities, should make your own investigation into the Oil Interests held by the Fund and the issuers of the Oil Interests held by the Fund. Neither the Fund nor any of the issuers of the Oil Interests held by the Fund are involved in this offering of your securities in any way and none of them has any obligation of any sort with respect to your securities. Neither the Fund nor any of the issuers of the Oil Interests held by the Fund has any obligation to take your interests into consideration for any reason, including when taking any corporate actions that might affect the value of your securities.

• ADJUSTMENTS TO THE FUND COULD ADVERSELY AFFECT THE VALUE OF THE SECURITIES — United States Commodity Funds, LLC (the “General Partner”) is the investment advisor to the Fund, which seeks investment results that track movements in the spot price of WTI light, sweet crude oil delivered to Cushing, Oklahoma, less the Fund’s expenses. Pursuant to its investment strategy or otherwise, the General Partner may add, delete, or substitute the Oil Interests underlying the Fund. Any of these actions could cause or contribute to large movements in the prices of the Oil Interests held by the Fund, which could cause the price of Fund units to close below the Lower Barrier, in which case your Payment at Maturity will be fully exposed to any decline in the Ending Fund Level determined on the Final Valuation Date as compared to the Initial Fund Level.

• THE FUND RETURN MAY DIFFER FROM THE RETURN OF THE OIL INTERESTS UNDERLYING THE FUND — The performance of the Fund may not exactly replicate the performance of the Oil Interests underlying the Fund because the Fund will reflect transaction costs and fees. It is also possible that the Fund may not fully replicate or may

TS-8

in certain circumstances diverge significantly from the performance of the Oil Interests underlying the fund due to the temporary unavailability of certain securities in the secondary market, the performance of any derivative instruments contained in this fund or due to other circumstances.

• YOUR RETURN ON THE SECURITIES GENERALLY WILL NOT REFLECT ANY PAYMENTS MADE WITH RESPECT TO THE OIL INTERESTS UNDERLYING THE FUND — Your return on the securities, if any, will not reflect the return you would realize if you actually owned the Oil Interests underlying the Fund, and received payments made with respect to such Oil Interests. This is because Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch (the “Calculation Agent”), will calculate the amount payable to you at maturity by reference to the Fund closing level on the Final Valuation Date. The Fund closing levels may reflect the prices of the Oil Interests underlying the Fund without taking into consideration the value of any payments to holders of those Oil Interests.

• THE VALUE OF THE SECURITIES IS SUBJECT TO OUR CREDITWORTHINESS — An actual or anticipated downgrade in our credit rating will likely have an adverse effect on the market value of the securities. The Payment at Maturity on the securities is subject to our creditworthiness.

• CERTAIN BUILT-IN COSTS ARE LIKELY TO ADVERSELY AFFECT THE VALUE OF THE SECURITIES PRIOR TO MATURITY — While the Payment at Maturity described in this term sheet is based on the full Face Amount of your securities, the original issue price of the securities includes the agent’s commission and the cost 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 (or its affiliates), will be willing to purchase securities 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 securities are not designed to be short-term trading instruments. Accordingly, you should be able and willing to hold your securities to maturity.

• THE SECURITIES WILL NOT BE LISTED AND THERE WILL LIKELY BE LIMITED LIQUIDITY — The securities will not be listed on any securities exchange. Deutsche Bank AG or its affiliates intend to 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 the 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 is willing to buy the securities.

• TRADING BY US OR OUR AFFILIATES IN THE COMMODITIES MARKETS MAY IMPAIR THE VALUE OF THE SECURITIES — We and our affiliates are active participants in the commodities 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 commodities transactions. In addition, we or one or more of our affiliates may hedge our exposure from the securities 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 an impact on the performance of the Fund including on the Final Valuation Date, which would affect your Payment at Maturity. 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 securities 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 SECURITIES. ANY SUCH RESEARCH, OPINIONS OR RECOMMENDATIONS COULD AFFECT THE CLOSING LEVEL OF THE FUND OR THE MARKET VALUE OF THE SECURITIES — 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 securities, and we may express opinions or provide recommendations that are inconsistent with purchasing or holding the securities. 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 securities, and the Fund to which the securities are linked.

• OUR ACTIONS AS CALCULATION AGENT AND OUR HEDGING ACTIVITY MAY ADVERSELY AFFECT THE VALUE OF THE SECURITIES — We and our affiliates play a variety of roles in connection with the issuance of the securities, including acting as calculation agent and hedging our obligations under the securities. In performing these duties, the economic interests of the calculation agent and other affiliates of ours are potentially adverse to your interests as an investor in 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 no assurance can be given that the IRS or a court will 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 timing and/or character of income thereon might differ materially and adversely from the description herein. Even if the treatment of the securities as prepaid financial contracts is respected, the securities could be treated as subject to the “constructive ownership” regime of Section 1260 of the Code. In that case, all or a portion of any long-term capital gain you would otherwise recognize on a sale, exchange or retirement of the securities would be recharacterized as ordinary income to the extent such gain exceeded the “net underlying long-term capital gain,” and an interest charge would apply with respect to the deemed tax liability that would have been incurred if such income had accrued at a constant yield over the period you held the securities. As described above under “Certain Tax Consequences,” on December 7, 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 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. Both U.S. and non-U.S. holders should review carefully the section of the accompanying product supplement entitled “Certain 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, the potential application of the “constructive ownership” regime, and the issues presented by the December 7, 2007 notice), as well as any tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, local or non-U.S. taxing jurisdiction.

Publication of the Fund began on April 10, 2006, and thus it has a limited performance history. The Fund closing level on February 22, 2009 was 24.35. We obtained the Fund closing levels below from Bloomberg, and we have not participated in the preparation of, or verified, such information. The historical levels of the Fund should not be taken as an indication of future performance, and no assurance can be given as to the Fund Ending Level or that the Fund closing levels will remain above the Lower Barrier throughout the Observation Period. We cannot give you assurance that the performance of the Fund will result in the return of any of your initial investment.

Supplemental Underwriting Information

Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. (“DBSI“) and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, acting as agents for Deutsche Bank AG, will not receive a commission in connection with the sale of the securities. DBSI may pay referral fees to other broker-dealers of up to 0.50% or $5.00 per $1,000 Face Amount. Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. may pay custodial fees to other broker-dealers of up to 0.25% or $2.50 per $1,000 Face Amount. Deutsche Bank AG will reimburse DBSI for such fees.

Settlement

We expect to deliver the securities against payment for the securities on the Settlement Date indicated above, which may be a date that is greater than three business days following the Trade Date. Under Rule 15c6-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in three business days, unless the parties to a trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to transact in securities more than three business days prior to the original issue date will be required to specify alternative settlement arrangements to prevent a failed settlement if the securities are to be issued more than three business days after the Trade Date.
