PowerShares DB 3x Long US Dollar Index Futures ETN
PowerShares DB 3x Short US Dollar Index Futures ETN
What are the PowerShares US Dollar Futures ETNs?
The ETNs are senior unsecured obligations issued by Deutsche Bank AG, London
Branch that are linked to the month-over-month performance of an underlying
index (the "Index") obtained by combining three times the returns for the 3x
Long US Dollar Index Futures ETNs, or three times the inverse returns for the
3x Short US Dollar Index Futures ETNs, whether positive or negative, on the
Deutsche Bank Long US Dollar Index([R]) (USDX) Futures Index -- Excess
Return(TM), with returns on the DB 3-Month T-Bill Index, less the investor
fees.
The DB Long US Dollar Index([R]) (USDX) Futures Index seeks to measure the
performance of a long position in the US Dollar Index Futures. The underlying
assets of the US Dollar Index Futures are futures contracts traded on the ICE
Futures US, Inc. whose underlying asset is the USDX([R]), which measures the
performance of the US dollar against a weighted basket of six major world
currencies: the Euro, Japanese Yen, British Pound, Canadian Dollar, Swedish
Krona and Swiss Franc (the "Index Currencies"). The price of US Dollar Index
Futures are set by the market and reflect the foreign exchange futures prices
for the underlying Index Currencies which in turn depend on the current
exchange rates for the Index Currencies and the interest rate differential
between the US dollar and the underlying Index Currencies. As such, increases
in the USDX Futures Index generally reflect a strengthening of the US dollar
compared to the Index Currencies and declines generally reflect a weakening of
the US dollar compared to the Index Currencies.
Investors can buy and sell the ETNs 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. The issuer has the right to redeem the ETNs at
the repurchase value at any time. Investors may redeem the ETNs in blocks of no
less than 200,000 securities and multiples of 50,000 securities thereafter,
subject to the procedures described in the pricing supplement. Redemptions may
include a fee of up to $0.03 per security.

Important Risk Considerations:
Each security offers investors exposure to the month-over-month performance of
its respective Index measured from the first calendar day to the last calendar
day of each month and the amount you receive at maturity (or upon an earlier
repurchase) will be contingent upon each monthly performance of the respective
Index during the term of the ETNs. The US Dollar Futures ETNs may not be
suitable for investors seeking an investment with a term greater than the time
remaining to the next monthly reset date and should be used only by
knowledgeable investors who understand the potential adverse consequences of
seeking longer-term inverse or leveraged investment results by means of
securities that reset their exposure monthly, resulting in the compounding of
monthly returns.
Investing in the ETNs is not equivalent to a direct investment in the index or
index components. The principal amount is also subject to the monthly
application of the investor fee, which can adversely affect returns. 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 ETNs may not be offset by any beneficial
monthly performances.
The ETNs are senior unsecured obligations of Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch,
and the amount due on the ETNs is dependent on Deutsche Bank AG, London
Branch's ability to pay. The ETNs are riskier than ordinary unsecured debt
securities and have no principal protection. Risks of investing in the ETNs
include limited portfolio diversification, full principal at risk, trade price
fluctuations, illiquidity and leveraged losses. The investor fee will reduce
the amount of
your return at maturity or upon redemption of your ETNs even if the value of
the relevant Index has increased. If at any time the repurchase value of the
ETNs is zero, your Investment will expire worthless. As described in the
pricing supplement, Deutsche Bank may redeem the ETNs for an amount in cash
equal to the repurchase value.
The ETNs may be sold throughout the day on NYSE Arca through any brokerage
account. There are restrictions on the minimum number of 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 ETNs.
Sales in the secondary market may result in losses.
The ETNs provide concentrated exposure to notional positions in US Dollar Index
Futures contracts. The market value of the ETNs may be influenced by many
unpredictable factors, including, among other things, changes in supply and
demand relationships, changes in interest rates, and monetary and other
governmental actions.
The ETNs are leveraged investments. As such, they are 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.
