ISSUER FREE WRITING PROSPECTUS NO. 989BI Filed Pursuant to Rule 433 Registration Statement No. 333-162195 Dated October 19, 2010   $· Deutsche Bank AG Autocallable Optimization Securities with Contingent Protection  

Linked to the common stock of Anadarko Petroleum Corporation due on or about October 28, 2011

Investment Description

Autocallable Optimization Securities with Contingent Protection (the “Securities”) are senior unsecured obligations of Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch (the “Issuer”) with returns linked to the performance of the common stock of Anadarko Petroleum Corporation (the “Underlying Stock”). The Securities are designed for investors who want to express a neutral or bullish view on the Underlying Stock. If the Closing Price of the Underlying Stock is greater than or equal to the Initial Stock Price on any Observation Date (including the Final Valuation Date) the Securities will be automatically called for an annualized return of between 20.50% and 24.50% (or a monthly return of between 1.71% and 2.04%) (to be set on the Trade Date). If the Securities are not automatically called and the Final Stock Price is not less than the Trigger Price, at maturity you will be entitled to receive an amount equal to your initial investment. If the Securities are not automatically called and the Final Stock Price is less than the Trigger Price, you will receive your initial investment reduced by 1% for every 1% decline in the Final Stock Price as compared to the Initial Stock Price. Under these circumstances you will lose a significant portion, and could lose all, of your initial investment. You will not receive interest payments during the term of the Securities. Investing in the Securities is subject to significant risks, including the risk of losing your entire initial investment. The contingent protection feature applies only if you hold the Securities to maturity. Any payment on the Securities, including any contingent protection, is subject to the creditworthiness of the Issuer.

Features

q Tactical Investment Opportunity — If you believe the price of the Underlying Stock will remain the same or increase in value over the term of the Securities but are unsure about the exact timing or magnitude of the appreciation, the Securities provide an opportunity to generate returns based on this market view. If the Closing Price of the Underlying Stock is greater than or equal to the Initial Stock Price on any Observation Date (including the Final Valuation Date) the securities will be automatically called for an annualized return of between 20.50% and 24.50% (to be set on the Trade Date). If the Securities are not called, investors will have downside market exposure to the Underlying Stock at maturity, subject to the contingent protection feature.

q Contingent Protection Feature — If you hold the Securities to maturity and the Final Stock Price is not less than the Trigger Price, you will receive 100% of your initial investment at maturity, subject to the creditworthiness of the Issuer. If the Final Stock Price is less than the Trigger Price, your Securities will be fully exposed to any decline in the Final Stock Price as compared to the Initial Stock Price. Under these circumstances, you will lose a significant portion, and could lose all, of your initial investment.

Scenario Analysis and Hypothetical Examples of Payment upon an Automatic Call or at Maturity

The following table and hypothetical examples below illustrate the Payment at Maturity or Call Price due upon an automatic call for a hypothetical range of performance for the Underlying Stock. The following examples and table are hypothetical and provided for illustrative purposes only. They do not purport to be representative of every possible scenario concerning increases or decreases in the price of the Underlying Stock relative to its Initial Stock Price. We cannot predict the Final Stock Price or the Closing Price of the Underlying Stock on any of the Observation Dates (including the Final Valuation Date). You should not take these examples as an indication or assurance of the expected performance of the Underlying Stock. You should consider carefully whether the Securities are suitable to your investment goals. The numbers in the examples and table below have been rounded for ease of analysis.

The following examples and table illustrate the Payment at Maturity or Call Price due upon an automatic call per Security on a hypothetical offering of Securities based on the following assumptions*:

Term:	1 year, subject to an automatic call
Hypothetical Initial Stock Price:	$58.00
Hypothetical Trigger Price:	$40.60 (70% of the hypothetical Initial Stock Price)
Hypothetical Call Return and Call Prices:

Observation Dates	Call Return*			Call Price*
November 22, 2010		1.88	%	$	10.19
December 22, 2010		3.75	%	$	10.38
January 24, 2011		5.63	%	$	10.56
February 22, 2011		7.50	%	$	10.75
March 22, 2011		9.38	%	$	10.94

July 22, 2011		16.88	%	$	11.69
August 22, 2011		18.75	%	$	11.88
September 22, 2011		20.63	%	$	12.06
October 24, 2011 (Final Valuation Date)		22.50	%	$	12.25

* Based on a hypothetical annualized Call Return of 22.50% (the midpoint of the range of 20.50% to 24.50%). The actual Initial Stock Price, Trigger Price, Call Return and Call Price will be set on the Trade Date.

Example 1 — The Closing Price of the Underlying Stock on the first Observation Date is $60.00, which is greater than the Initial Stock Price of $58.00 — the Securities are called.

Because the Closing Price of the Underlying Stock on the first Observation Date is greater than or equal to the Initial Stock Price, the Securities are automatically called on the first Observation Date at the applicable Call Price of $10.19 per Security payable on the corresponding Call Settlement Date, representing a 1.88% return on the Securities.

Example 2 — The Securities have not been automatically called prior to the Final Valuation Date and the Final Stock Price of $60.00 is greater than the Initial Stock Price of $58.00 — the Securities are called.

Because the Securities were not previously called and the Final Stock Price is greater than or equal to the Initial Stock Price, the Securities are automatically called on the Final Valuation Date at the applicable Call Price of $12.25 per Security payable on the corresponding Call Settlement Date, representing a 22.50% return on the Securities.

Example 3 — The Closing Price of the Underlying Stock is not equal to or greater than the Initial Stock Price on any of the Observation Dates and the Final Stock Price of $42.00 is greater than the Trigger Price of $40.60 — the Securities are NOT called.

Because the Closing Price of the Underlying Stock on all of the Observation Dates is not equal to or greater than the Initial Stock Price, the Securities are not automatically called. Because the Final Stock Price is not less than the Trigger Price, you will be entitled to receive a Payment at Maturity equal to $10.00 per $10.00 Security.

Example 4 — The Securities have not been automatically called prior to the Final Valuation Date and the Final Stock Price of $23.20 is less than the Trigger Price of $40.60 — the Securities are NOT called.

Because the Securities are not called and the Final Stock Price is less than the Trigger Price, your initial investment will be fully exposed to any decline in the Final Stock Price as compared to the Initial Stock Price. Accordingly, you will be entitled to receive a Payment at Maturity calculated as follows:

$10.00 + (10.00 x Underlying Stock Return) =

$10.00 + (10.00 x -60%) = $4.00

If the Securities are not automatically called and the Final Stock Price is less than the Trigger Price, the contingent protection feature is lost and your initial investment will be fully exposed to any decline in the Final Stock Price as compared to the Initial Stock Price. Under these circumstances, you will lose a significant portion, and could lose all, of your initial investment. Any payment on the Securities, including any contingent protection, is subject to the creditworthiness of the Issuer.

What Are the Tax Consequences of an Investment in the Securities?

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 the Securities should be treated 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 (including a call), and your gain or loss on the Securities should be capital gain or loss and should be long-term capital gain or loss if you have held the Securities for more than one year. 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 Securities 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 free writing prospectus and the accompanying product supplement.

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.

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. Individuals who purchase the Securities should consult their tax advisers regarding this legislation.

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.”

Neither we nor UBS Financial Services Inc. provides 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), as well as tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, local or non-U.S. taxing jurisdiction.

Key Risks

An investment in the Securities involves significant risks. Investing in the Securities is not equivalent to investing directly in the Underlying Stock. Some of the risks that apply to the Securities are summarized below, but we urge you to read the more detailed explanation of risks relating to the Securities generally in the “Risk Factors” section of the accompanying product supplement. We also urge you to consult your investment, legal, tax, accounting and other advisers before you invest in the Securities.

^¨ YOUR INVESTMENT IN THE SECURITIES MAY RESULT IN A LOSS OF YOUR INITIAL INVESTMENT — The Securities do not guarantee any return of your initial investment. If the securities are not automatically called, the return on the Securities at maturity will depend on whether the Final Stock Price is greater than or equal to the Trigger Price. If the Securities are not automatically called on any Observation Date and the Final Stock Price is less than the Trigger Price, you will be fully exposed to any decline in the Final Stock Price as compared to the Initial Stock Price. Accordingly, you could lose your entire initial investment.

^¨ APPRECIATION POTENTIAL IS LIMITED TO THE CALL RETURN — The appreciation potential of the Securities is limited to the annualized Call Return of 20.50% to 24.50% (to be set on the Trade Date), regardless of the performance of the Underlying Stock. In addition, since the Securities could be called as early as the first monthly Observation Date, the term of your investment could be cut short, and your return on the Securities would then be less than if the Securities were called at a later date. Following an early call, there is no guarantee that you would be able to reinvest the proceeds from your investment in the Securities at a comparable return for a similar level of risk. If the Securities are not called, you could lose your entire initial investment.

^¨ RISKS RELATING TO THE 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 upon an automatic call and any contingent protection provided 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 contingent protection or any other amount owed to you under the terms of the Securities.

^¨ REINVESTMENT RISK — If your Securities are called early, the holding period over which you would receive the annualized Call Return of 20.50% to 24.50% could be as little as one month. There is no guarantee that you would be able to reinvest the proceeds from an investment in the Securities at a comparable return and/or with a comparable interest rate for a similar level of risk in the event the Securities are called prior to the Maturity Date.

^¨ TRADING AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS BY US OR OUR AFFILIATES, OR UBS OR ITS AFFILIATES, IN THE EQUITY AND EQUITY DERIVATIVE MARKETS MAY IMPAIR THE VALUE OF THE SECURITIES — We or one or more of our affiliates may hedge our exposure from the Securities 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 Underlying Stock and make it less likely that you

5

will receive a 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, or UBS or its affiliates, may also engage in trading in instruments linked to the Underlying Stock 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, or UBS or its affiliates, may also issue or underwrite other securities or financial or derivative instruments with returns linked or related to the Underlying Stock. By introducing competing products into the marketplace in this manner, we or our affiliates, or UBS or its affiliates, could adversely affect the value of the Securities. 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 Securities.

^¨ YOUR CONTINGENT PROTECTION MAY TERMINATE ON THE FINAL VALUATION DATE — If the Securities are not automatically called and the Final Stock Price is greater than or equal to the Trigger Price, your initial investment in the Securities will be protected, subject to the credit of the Issuer. We refer to this feature as contingent protection. However, if the Final Stock Price is less than the Trigger Price, at maturity you will be fully exposed to any depreciation in the Closing Price of the Underlying Stock. Under these circumstances, your initial investment will be reduced by 1% for every 1% that the Final Stock Price is less than the Initial Stock Price.

^¨ CONTINGENT PROTECTION OF YOUR INITIAL INVESTMENT APPLIES ONLY IF YOU HOLD THE SECURITIES TO MATURITY — If your Securities are not automatically called, you should be willing to hold your Securities to maturity. If you sell your Securities prior to maturity in the secondary market, you may have to sell them at a discount and your initial investment will not be protected.

^¨ NO COUPON PAYMENTS, DIVIDEND PAYMENTS OR VOTING RIGHTS — As a holder of the Securities, you will not receive coupon payments, and you will not have voting rights or rights to receive cash dividends or other distributions or other rights that holders of the Underlying Stock would have.

^¨ INVESTING IN THE SECURITIES IS NOT THE SAME AS INVESTING IN THE UNDERLYING STOCK — The return on your Securities may not reflect the return you would realize if you directly invested in the Underlying Stock. For instance, you will not receive or be entitled to receive any dividend payments or other distributions or other rights that holders of the Underlying Stock would have.

^¨ SINGLE STOCK RISK — The price of the Underlying Stock can rise or fall sharply due to factors specific to the Underlying Stock and its issuer, such as stock price volatility, earnings, financial conditions, corporate, industry and regulatory developments, management changes and decisions and other events, as well as general market factors, such as general stock market volatility and levels, interest rates and economic and political conditions. For additional information about the Underlying Stock and its issuer, please see “The Underlying Stock” and “Anadarko Petroleum Corporation” in this free writing prospectus and the issuer’s SEC filings referred to in those sections.

^¨ IF THE PRICE OF THE UNDERLYING STOCK CHANGES, THE VALUE OF YOUR SECURITIES MAY NOT CHANGE IN THE SAME MANNER — Your Securities may trade quite differently from the Underlying Stock. Changes in the market price of the Underlying Stock may not result in a comparable change in the value of your Securities.

^¨ THE SECURITIES HAVE CERTAIN BUILT-IN COSTS — While the Payment at Maturity or Call Price due upon an automatic call described in this free writing prospectus is based on your entire initial investment, the original Issue Price of the Securities includes the agents’ commission and the estimated cost of hedging our obligations under the Securities 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 AG or its affiliates would be willing to purchase Securities from you prior to maturity 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.

^¨ THERE MAY BE LITTLE OR NO SECONDARY MARKET FOR THE SECURITIES — 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 may be willing to buy the Securities.

^¨ MANY ECONOMIC AND MARKET FACTORS WILL IMPACT THE VALUE OF THE SECURITIES — We expect that, generally, the price of the Underlying Stock, volatility of the Underlying Stock, factors specific to the issuer of the Underlying Stock, such as earnings, financial conditions, corporate, industry and regulatory developments, management changes and decisions and other events, will affect the value of the Securities more than other factors. However, the value of the Securities will be affected by a number of other factors that may either offset or magnify each other, including:

^¨ the time remaining to maturity of the Securities;

^¨ the market price and dividend rates of the Underlying Stock and the stock market generally;

^¨ interest and yield rates in the market generally and in the markets of the Underlying Stock;

^¨ 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.

^¨ POTENTIAL DEUTSCHE BANK AG IMPACT ON PRICE — Trading or transactions by Deutsche Bank AG or its affiliates in the Underlying Stock and/or over-the-counter options, futures or other instruments with returns linked to the performance of the Underlying Stock, may adversely affect the market price of the Underlying Stock and therefore, the value of the Securities.

^¨ POTENTIAL CONFLICT OF INTEREST — Deutsche Bank AG and its affiliates may engage in business with the issuer of the Underlying Stock, which may present a conflict between the obligations of Deutsche Bank AG and you, as a holder of the Securities. The calculation agent, an affiliate of Deutsche Bank AG, will determine the Final Stock Price of the Underlying Stock and Payment at Maturity or Call Price due upon an automatic call based on Closing Price of the Underlying Stock in the market. The calculation agent can postpone the determination of the Closing Price of the Underlying Stock if a market disruption event occurs on any of the Observations Dates.

^¨ WE AND OUR AFFILIATES, OR UBS AG AND ITS AFFILIATES, 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 FINAL STOCK PRICE AND THE VALUE OF SECURITIES — We, our affiliates and agents, and UBS AG and its affiliates, 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. Any research, opinions or recommendations expressed by us, our affiliates or agents, or UBS AG or its affiliates, 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 Underlying Stock to which the Securities are linked.

^¨ THE ANTI-DILUTION PROTECTION IS LIMITED — The calculation agent will make adjustments to the relevant Share Adjustment Factor, which will initially be set at 1.0, for certain events affecting the relevant Underlying Stock. See “Description of Securities — Anti-Dilution Adjustments” in the accompanying product supplement. The calculation agent is not required, however, to make such adjustments in response to all events that could affect the relevant Underlying Stock. 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 ISSUER OF THE UNDERLYING STOCK AND US, AND WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DISCLOSURE BY SUCH ISSUER — We are not affiliated with the issuer of the Underlying Stock (the “Underlying Stock Issuer“). However, we and our affiliates may currently or from time to time in the future engage in business with the Underlying Stock Issuer. Nevertheless, neither we nor our affiliates assume any responsibility for the accuracy or the completeness of any information about the Underlying Stock and the Underlying Stock Issuer. You, as an investor in the Securities, should make your own investigation into the Underlying Stock and the Underlying Stock Issuer. The Underlying Stock Issuer is not involved in the Securities offered hereby in any way and has no obligation of any sort with respect to your Securities. The Underlying Stock Issuer has no obligation to take your interests into consideration for any reason, including when taking any corporate actions that might affect the value of your Securities.

^¨ PAST PERFORMANCE OF THE UNDERLYING STOCK IS NO GUIDE TO FUTURE PERFORMANCE — The actual performance of the Underlying Stock may bear little relation to the historical prices of the Underlying Stock, and may bear little relation to the hypothetical return examples set forth elsewhere in this free writing prospectus. We cannot predict the future performance of the Underlying Stock.

^¨ 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. As described above under “What Are the Tax Consequences of an Investment in the Securities?”, 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. 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), as well as tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, local or non-U.S. taxing jurisdiction.
