Three-Year Autocallable Securities Linked to the Lesser Performing of the S&P 500® Index and the EURO STOXX 50® Index due August 2, 2017
 
The securities are linked to the lesser performing of the S&P 500® Index and the EURO STOXX 50® Index (each, an “Underlying”) and are designed for investors who seek potential early call prior to maturity. If the closing levels of both Underlyings on any Call Date (including the Final Valuation Date) are greater than or equal to their respective Initial Levels, the Issuer will automatically call the securities and pay you a Redemption Amount in cash per $1,000 Face Amount of securities equal to $1,000 multiplied by the applicable Call Return based on an annualized return of at least 12.00% (to be determined on the Trade Date). If the securities are not automatically called and the Final Level of the lesser performing Underlying is greater than or equal to its Knock-In Level, which is 80.00% of its Initial Level, you will receive the Face Amount of securities at maturity. If the securities are not automatically called and the Final Level of the lesser performing Underlying is less than its Knock-In Level, you will lose 1.00% of the Face Amount of securities for every 1.00% by which the Final Level of such lesser performing Underlying is less than its Initial Level. The securities do not pay coupons or dividends and investors should be willing to lose a significant portion or all of their initial investment if the securities are not automatically called and the Final Level of either Underlying is less than its respective Initial Level by more than 20.00%. Any payment on the securities is subject to the credit of the Issuer.
 
The securities are senior, unsecured obligations of Deutsche Bank AG, and are not, either directly or indirectly, an obligation of any third party. Any payment to be made on the securities depends on the ability of Deutsche Bank AG to satisfy its obligations as they come due and is not guaranteed by any third party. In the event Deutsche Bank AG were to default on its obligations, you might not receive any amounts owed to you under the terms of the securities.

Issuer’s Estimated Value of the Securities
 
The Issuer’s estimated value of the securities is equal to the sum of our valuations of the following two components of the securities: (i) a bond and (ii) an embedded derivative(s). The value of the bond component of the securities is calculated based on the present value of the stream of cash payments associated with a conventional bond with a principal amount equal to the Face Amount of securities, discounted at an internal funding rate, which is determined primarily based on our market-based yield curve, adjusted to account for our funding needs and objectives for the period matching the term of the securities. The internal funding rate is typically lower than the rate we would pay when we issue conventional debt securities on equivalent terms. This difference in funding rate, as well as the agent’s commissions, if any, and the estimated cost of hedging our obligations under the securities, reduces the economic terms of the securities to you and is expected to adversely affect the price at which you may be able to sell the securities in any secondary market. The value of the embedded derivative(s) is calculated based on our internal pricing models using relevant parameter inputs such as expected interest rates and mid-market levels of price and volatility of the assets underlying the securities or any futures, options or swaps related to such underlying assets. Our internal pricing models are proprietary and rely in part on certain assumptions about future events, which may prove to be incorrect.
 
The Issuer’s estimated value of the securities on the Trade Date (as disclosed on the cover of this term sheet) is less than the Issue Price of the securities. The difference between the Issue Price and the Issuer’s estimated value of the securities on the Trade Date is due to the inclusion in the Issue Price of the agent’s commissions, if any, and the cost of hedging our obligations under the securities through one or more of our affiliates. Such hedging 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.
 
The Issuer’s estimated value of the securities on the Trade Date does not represent the price at which we or any of our affiliates would be willing to purchase your securities in the secondary market at any time. Assuming no changes in market conditions or our creditworthiness and other relevant factors, the price, if any, at which we or our affiliates would be willing to purchase the securities from you in secondary market transactions, if at all, would generally be lower than both the Issue Price and the Issuer’s estimated value of the securities on the Trade Date. Our purchase price, if any, in secondary market transactions will be based on the estimated value of the securities determined by reference to (i) the then-prevailing internal funding rate (adjusted by a spread) or another appropriate measure of our cost of funds and (ii) our pricing models at that time, less a bid spread determined after taking into account the size of the repurchase, the nature of the assets underlying the securities and then-prevailing market conditions. The price we report to financial reporting services and to distributors of our securities for use on customer account statements would generally be determined on the same basis. However, during the period of approximately four months beginning from the Trade Date, we or our affiliates may, in our sole discretion, increase the purchase price determined as described above by an amount equal to the declining differential between the Issue Price and the Issuer’s estimated value of the securities on the Trade Date, prorated over such period on a straight-line basis, for transactions that are individually and in the aggregate of the expected size for ordinary secondary market repurchases.

TS-3

 
 
The following hypothetical examples illustrate how the Payment at Maturity or Redemption Amount set forth in the two tables above are calculated.

Example 1: The closing levels of both Underlyings are greater than their respective Initial Levels on the first Call Date. Because the closing levels of both Underlyings on the first Call Date are greater than or equal to their respective Initial Levels, the securities are automatically called on the first Call Date, and the investor will be entitled to receive a cash payment of $1,120.00 per $1,000 Face Amount of securities on the corresponding Call Settlement Date, calculated as follows:
 
$1,000 x 112.00% = $1,120.00
 
Example 2: The securities have not been automatically called prior to the Final Valuation Date and the Final Levels of both Underlyings are greater than their respective Initial Levels. Because the last Call Date is scheduled to be the Final Valuation Date and the Final Levels of both Underlyings are greater than or equal to their respective Initial Levels, the securities are automatically called on the Final Valuation Date, and the investor will be entitled to receive a cash payment of $1,360.00 per $1,000 Face Amount of securities on the corresponding Call Settlement Date (the Maturity Date), calculated as follows:
 
$1,000 x 136.00%  = $1,360.00
 
Example 3: The securities have not been automatically called prior to the Final Valuation Date and the Final Level of the Laggard Underlying is 90.00% of its Initial Level. Because the Final Level of the Laggard Underlying is less than its Initial Level, the securities are not automatically called on the Final Valuation Date. Because the Final Level of the Laggard Underlying is greater than its Knock-In Level (80.00% of its Initial Level), a Knock-In Event does not occur, and the investor will be entitled to receive a Payment at Maturity of $1,000.00 per $1,000 Face Amount of securities.
 
Example 4: The securities have not been automatically called prior to the Final Valuation Date, and the Final Level of the Laggard Underlying is 60.00% of its Initial Level while the Final Level of the other Underlying is above its Initial Level. Because the Final Level of the Laggard Underlying is less than its Initial Level, the securities are not automatically called on the Final Valuation Date. Because the Final Level of the Laggard Underlying is less than its Knock-In Level (80.00% of its Initial Level), a Knock-In Event occurs and the investor will be entitled to receive a Payment at Maturity of $600.00 per $1,000 Face Amount of securities, calculated as follows:
 
$1,000 + ($1,000 x -40.00%) = $600.00
 
In this example, even though the Final Level of the other Underlying is greater than its Initial Level, because a Knock-In Event has occurred as a result of the decline of the Laggard Underlying, the investor will still lose 1.00% of the Face Amount for every 1.00% by which the Final Level of the Laggard Underlying is less than its Initial Level.
 
Example 5: The securities have not been automatically called prior to the Final Valuation Date, the Final Levels of both Underlyings are less than their respective Knock-In Levels and the Final Level of the Laggard Underlying is 40.00% of its Initial Level. Because the Final Level of the Laggard Underlying is less than its Initial Level, the securities are not automatically called on the Final Valuation Date. Because the Final Level of the Laggard Underlying is less than its Knock-In Level (80.00% of its Initial Level), a Knock-In Event occurs and the investor will be entitled to receive a Payment at Maturity of $400.00 per $1,000 Face Amount of securities, calculated as follows:
 
$1,000 + ($1,000 x -60.00%) = $400.00
 
In this example, even though the Final Levels of both Underlyings are less than their respective Knock-In Levels, the investor’s Payment at Maturity will be calculated solely by reference to the Underlying Return of the Laggard Underlying and the investor will lose 1.00% of the Face Amount of securities for every 1.00% by which the Final Level of the Laggard Underlying is less than its Initial Level.
 
Selected Purchase Considerations
 
 
FIXED APPRECIATION POTENTIAL IF THE SECURITIES ARE AUTOMATICALLY CALLED, AND LIMITED PROTECTION AGAINST LOSS — The securities are designed for investors who believe that the closing level of neither Underlying will decrease more than 20.00% from its respective Initial Level over the term of the securities, and who are willing to risk losing up to 100% of their initial investment if the securities are not automatically called and the closing level of either Underlying declines by more than 20.00% from its Initial Level to its Final Level. If the securities are automatically called, you will receive a positive return reflecting the applicable Call Return for the Call Date. If the securities are not automatically called and the Underlying Return of the Laggard Underlying is equal to or greater than -20.00%, you will receive the Face Amount of securities at
 
 
TS-4

 
 
 
maturity. If the Underlying Return of the Laggard Underlying is less than -20.00%, you are exposed to any decline in the closing level of the Laggard Underlying and you will lose 1.00% of the Face Amount of securities for every 1.00% by which the Final Level of the Laggard Underlying is less than its Initial Level. You will lose a significant portion or all of your investment if the securities are not automatically called and the Final Level of the Laggard Underlying is less than its Initial Level by an amount greater than 20.00%. Because the securities are our senior unsecured obligations, payment of any amount on the securities at maturity or upon an Automatic Call is subject to our ability to pay our obligations as they become due.
 
 
POTENTIAL EARLY EXIT WITH APPRECIATION AS A RESULT OF AUTOMATIC CALL FEATURE — While the original term of the securities is approximately three years, the securities will be called if the closing levels of both Underlyings are greater than or equal to their respective Initial Levels on any Call Date (including the Final Valuation Date), and you will be entitled to a return on the securities on the applicable Call Settlement Date of at least 12.00% per annum (to be determined on the Trade Date).
 
 
RETURN LINKED TO THE LESSER PERFORMING OF TWO UNDERLYINGS — The return on the securities is linked to the lesser performing of the S&P 500® Index and the EURO STOXX 50® Index, and if a Knock-In Event occurs, the payment you receive at maturity will be determined solely by reference to the Laggard Underlying.
 
 
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 October 1, 2012.
 
 
EURO STOXX 50® Index
 
 
The EURO STOXX 50® Index is composed of the stocks of 50 major companies in the Eurozone. These companies include market sector leaders from within the 19 EURO STOXX® Supersector indices, which represent the Eurozone portion of the STOXX Europe 600® Supersector indices. The STOXX Europe 600® Supersector indices contain the 600 largest stocks traded on the major exchanges of 18 European countries. On March 1, 2010, STOXX Limited announced the removal of the “Dow Jones” prefix from all of its indices, including the Dow Jones EURO STOXX 50® Index. This is just a summary of the EURO STOXX 50® Index. For more information on the EURO STOXX 50® Index, including information concerning its composition, calculation methodology and adjustment policy, please see the section entitled “The EURO STOXX 50® Index” in the accompanying underlying supplement No. 1 dated October 1, 2012.
 
 
TAX CONSEQUENCES  In the opinion of our special tax counsel, Davis Polk & Wardwell LLP, which is based on prevailing market conditions, it is more likely than not that the securities will be treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as prepaid financial contracts that are not debt. Generally, if this treatment is respected, (i) you should not recognize taxable income or loss prior to the taxable disposition of your securities (including at maturity or pursuant to a call) and (ii) the gain or loss on your 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. The Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) or a court might not agree with this treatment, however, in which case the timing and character of income or loss on your securities could be materially and adversely affected.
 
 
In 2007, the U.S. Treasury Department 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. The notice focuses in particular on whether beneficial owners of these instruments should be required 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 a notional 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.
 
 
TS-5

 
 
 
You should review carefully the section of the accompanying product supplement entitled “U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences.” The preceding discussion, when read in combination with that section, constitutes the full opinion of our special tax counsel regarding the material U.S. federal income tax consequences of owning and disposing of the securities.
 
 
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.”
 
 
You should consult your tax adviser 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.

An investment in the securities involves significant risks. Investing in the securities is not equivalent to investing directly in either or both of the Underlyings or in any of the component stocks included in the Underlyings. In addition to these selected risk considerations, you should review the “Risk Factors” section of the accompanying product supplement.
 
 
YOUR INVESTMENT IN THE SECURITIES MAY RESULT IN A LOSS — The securities do not pay coupons or dividends and do not guarantee any return of your investment. If the securities are not automatically called, the Payment at Maturity of the securities will depend on whether a Knock-In Event occurs. If a Knock-In Event occurs, your investment will be fully exposed to the decline of the Laggard Underlying measured from its Initial Level to its Final Level, and you could lose up to 100% of your initial investment. The payment of any amount on the securities at maturity or upon an Automatic Call is subject to our ability to meet our obligations as they become due.
 
 
YOUR APPRECIATION POTENTIAL IS LIMITED TO THE CALL RETURN — The appreciation potential of the securities is limited to the pre-specified Call Return on the relevant Call Date, regardless of the performance of the Underlyings. If the securities are not automatically called, you will realize no positive return on the securities, and you may lose up to 100% of your initial investment if a Knock-In Event occurs.
 
 
IF A KNOCK-IN EVENT OCCURS, YOUR PAYMENT AT MATURITY WILL BE DETERMINED SOLELY BY THE LAGGARD UNDERLYING If a Knock-In Event occurs, the payment you receive at maturity will be determined solely by reference to the performance of the Laggard Underlying.
 
 
YOUR INVESTMENT IS EXPOSED TO A DECLINE IN THE LEVEL OF EACH UNDERLYING  Your return on the securities, if any, and any payment on the securities are not linked to a basket consisting of the Underlyings. Rather, any payment on the securities will be determined by reference to the performance of each individual Underlying. Unlike an instrument with a return linked to a basket, in which risk is mitigated and diversified among all of the basket components, you will be fully exposed to the risks related to each of the Underlyings. Poor performance by either of the Underlyings over the term of the securities will negatively affect your Payment at Maturity and will not be offset or mitigated by a positive performance by the other Underlying.
 
 
REINVESTMENT RISK — If your securities are called early, the term of the securities may be reduced to as short as one year. There is no guarantee that you would be able to reinvest the proceeds from an investment in the securities at a comparable return for a similar level of risk in the event the securities are automatically called prior to the Maturity Date.
 
 
THE SECURITIES DO NOT PAY COUPONS — Unlike ordinary debt securities, the securities 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 securities, you will not have voting rights or rights to receive cash dividends or other distributions or other rights that holders of the component stocks of the Underlyings would have.
 
 
THE SECURITIES ARE SUBJECT TO OUR CREDITWORTHINESS — 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(s) to be made on the securities depends on the ability of Deutsche Bank AG to satisfy its obligations as they come due. An actual or anticipated downgrade in Deutsche Bank AG’s credit rating or increase in the credit spreads charged by the market for taking our credit risk will likely have an adverse effect on the value of the securities. As a result, the actual and perceived creditworthiness of Deutsche Bank AG will
 
 
TS-6

 
 
 
affect the value of the securities and in the event Deutsche Bank AG were to default on its obligations, you might not receive any amount(s) owed to you under the terms of the securities and you could lose your entire investment.
 
 
THE ISSUER’S ESTIMATED VALUE OF THE SECURITIES ON THE TRADE DATE WILL BE LESS THAN THE ISSUE PRICE OF THE SECURITIES — The Issuer’s estimated value of the securities on the Trade Date (as disclosed on the cover of this term sheet) is less than the Issue Price of the securities. The difference between the Issue Price and the Issuer’s estimated value of the securities on the Trade Date is due to the inclusion in the Issue Price of the agent’s commissions, if any, and the cost of hedging our obligations under the securities through one or more of our affiliates. Such hedging 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. The Issuer’s estimated value of the securities is determined by reference to an internal funding rate and our pricing models. The internal funding rate is typically lower than the rate we would pay when we issue conventional  debt securities on equivalent terms. This difference in funding rate, as well as the agent’s commissions, if any, and the estimated cost of hedging our obligations under the securities, reduces the economic terms of the securities to you and is expected to adversely affect the price at which you may be able to sell the securities in any secondary market. In addition, our internal pricing models are proprietary and rely in part on certain assumptions about future events, which may prove to be incorrect. If at any time a third party dealer were to quote a price to purchase your securities or otherwise value your securities, that price or value may differ materially from the estimated value of the securities determined by reference to our internal funding rate and pricing models. This difference is due to, among other things, any difference in funding rates, pricing models or assumptions used by any dealer who may purchase the securities in the secondary market.
 
 
THE UNDERLYING RETURN FOR THE EURO STOXX 50® INDEX WILL NOT BE ADJUSTED FOR CHANGES IN EXCHANGE RATES RELATIVE TO THE U.S. DOLLAR — The EURO STOXX 50® Index is composed of stocks denominated in, and the level of the EURO STOXX 50® Index is calculated in, Euros. Because the level of the EURO STOXX 50® Index is calculated in Euros and not in U.S. dollars, the performance of the EURO STOXX 50® Index will not be adjusted for exchange rate fluctuations between the U.S. dollar and the Euro. Therefore, if the Euro strengthens or weakens relative to the U.S. dollar over the term of the securities, you will not receive any additional payment or incur any reduction in your return, if any, at maturity.
 
 
THERE ARE RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH INVESTMENTS IN SECURITIES LINKED TO THE VALUES OF EQUITY SECURITIES ISSUED BY NON-U.S. COMPANIES — The EURO STOXX 50® Index includes component stocks that are issued by companies incorporated outside of the U.S. Because the EURO STOXX 50® Index includes component stocks also traded outside the U.S., the securities are subject to the risks associated with non-U.S. securities markets. Generally, non-U.S. securities markets may be more volatile than U.S. securities markets, and market developments may affect non-U.S. securities markets differently than U.S. securities markets, which may adversely affect the value of the EURO STOXX 50® Index and the value of your securities. Furthermore, there are risks associated with investments in securities linked to the values of equity securities issued by non-U.S. companies. There is generally less publicly available information about non-U.S. companies than about those U.S. companies that are subject to the reporting requirements of the SEC, and non-U.S. companies are subject to accounting, auditing and financial reporting standards and requirements that differ from those applicable to U.S. reporting companies. In addition, the prices of equity securities issued by non-U.S. companies may be adversely affected by political, economic, financial and social factors that may be unique to the particular countries in which the non-U.S. companies are incorporated. These factors include the possibility of recent or future changes in a non-U.S. government’s economic and fiscal policies (including any direct or indirect intervention to stabilize the economy and/or securities market of the country of such non-U.S. government), the presence, and extent, of cross shareholdings in non-U.S. companies, the possible imposition of, or changes in, currency exchange laws or other non-U.S. laws or restrictions applicable to non-U.S. companies or investments in non-U.S. securities and the possibility of fluctuations in the rate of exchange between currencies. Moreover, certain aspects of a particular non-U.S. economy may differ favorably or unfavorably from the U.S. economy in important respects, such as growth of gross national product, rate of inflation, capital reinvestment, resources and self-sufficiency. Specifically, the stocks included in the EURO STOXX 50® Index are issued by companies located in countries within the Eurozone, some of which are and have been experiencing economic stress.
 
 
WE ARE ONE OF THE COMPANIES THAT MAKE UP THE EURO STOXX 50® INDEX — We are one of the companies that make up the EURO STOXX 50® Index. To our knowledge, we are not currently affiliated with any of the other companies the equity securities of which are represented in the EURO STOXX 50® Index. As a result, we will have no ability to control the actions of such other companies, including actions that could affect the value of the equity securities composing the EURO STOXX 50® Index, or your securities. None of the
 
 
TS-7

 
 
 
other companies represented in the EURO STOXX 50® Index will be involved in the offering of the securities in any way. Neither they nor we will have any obligation to consider your interests as a holder of the securities in taking any corporate actions that might affect the value of your securities.
 
 
INVESTING IN THE SECURITIES IS NOT THE SAME AS INVESTING IN THE UNDERLYINGS OR THE SECURITIES COMPOSING THE UNDERLYINGS — The return on your securities may not reflect the return you would realize if you were directly invested in the stocks composing the Underlyings. For instance, your return on the securities is solely dependent upon the performance of the lesser performing Underlying and is limited to the pre-specified Call Return on the relevant Call Date, regardless of the performance of the Underlyings.
 
 
IF THE LEVELS OF THE UNDERLYINGS CHANGE, THE VALUE OF YOUR SECURITIES MAY NOT CHANGE IN THE SAME MANNER — Your securities may trade quite differently from the levels of the Underlyings. Changes in the levels of the Underlyings may not result in a comparable change in the value of your securities.
 
 
PAST PERFORMANCE OF THE UNDERLYINGS IS NO GUIDE TO FUTURE PERFORMANCE — The actual performance of the Underlyings over the term of the securities may bear little relation to the historical closing levels of the Underlyings and may bear little relation to the hypothetical return examples set forth elsewhere in this term sheet. We cannot predict the future performance of the Underlyings or whether the performance of the Underlyings will result in the return of any of your investment.
 
 
ASSUMING NO CHANGES IN MARKET CONDITIONS AND OTHER RELEVANT FACTORS, THE PRICE YOU MAY RECEIVE FOR YOUR SECURITIES IN SECONDARY MARKET TRANSACTIONS WOULD GENERALLY BE LOWER THAN BOTH THE ISSUE PRICE AND THE ISSUER’S ESTIMATED VALUE OF THE SECURITIES ON THE TRADE DATE — While the payment(s) on the securities described in this term sheet is based on the full Face Amount of your securities, the Issuer’s estimated value of the securities on the Trade Date (as disclosed on the cover of this term sheet) is less than the Issue Price of the securities. The Issuer’s estimated value of the securities on the Trade Date does not represent the price at which we or any of our affiliates would be willing to purchase your securities in the secondary market at any time. Assuming no changes in market conditions or our creditworthiness and other relevant factors, the price, if any, at which we or our affiliates would be willing to purchase the securities from you in secondary market transactions, if at all, would generally be lower than both the Issue Price and the Issuer’s estimated value of the securities on the Trade Date. Our purchase price, if any, in secondary market transactions would be based on the estimated value of the securities determined by reference to (i) the then-prevailing internal funding rate (adjusted by a spread) or another appropriate measure of our cost of funds and (ii) our pricing models at that time, less a bid spread determined after taking into account the size of the repurchase, the nature of the assets underlying the securities and then-prevailing market conditions. The price we report to financial reporting services and to distributors of our securities for use on customer account statements would generally be determined on the same basis. However, during the period of approximately four months beginning from the Trade Date, we or our affiliates may, in our sole discretion, increase the purchase price determined as described above by an amount equal to the declining differential between the Issue Price and the Issuer’s estimated value of the securities on the Trade Date, prorated over such period on a straight-line basis, for transactions that are individually and in the aggregate of the expected size for ordinary secondary market repurchases.
 
 
In addition to the factors discussed above, the value of the securities and our purchase price in secondary market transactions after the Trade Date, if any, will vary based on many economic market factors, including our creditworthiness, and cannot be predicted with accuracy. These changes may adversely affect the value of your securities, including the price you may receive in any secondary market transactions. 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. There may be little or no secondary market for the securities. Even if there is a secondary market, it may not provide enough liquidity to allow you to trade or sell the securities when you wish to do so or at a price advantageous to you. We or our affiliates intend to act as market-makers for the securities but are not required to do so. Because we do not expect that other market-makers will participate significantly in the 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 we or our affiliates is willing to buy the securities. If, at any time, we or our affiliates do not act as market-makers, it is likely that there would be little or no secondary market for the securities.
 
 
TS-8

 
 
 
MANY ECONOMIC AND MARKET FACTORS WILL AFFECT THE VALUE OF THE SECURITIES — While we expect that, generally, the levels of the Underlyings will affect the value of the securities more than any other single factor, the value of the securities will also be affected by a number of other factors that may either offset or magnify each other, including:
 
 
the expected volatility of the Underlyings;
 
 
the time remaining to maturity of the securities;
 
 
the market price of and dividend rate on the component stocks of the Underlyings;
 
 
interest rates and yields in the market generally and in the markets of the component stocks of the Underlyings;
 
 
geopolitical conditions and economic, financial, political, regulatory or judicial events that affect the Underlyings or markets generally;
 
 
the composition of the Underlyings and any change to their component stocks;
 
 
supply and demand for the securities; and
 
 
our creditworthiness, including actual or anticipated downgrades in our credit ratings.
 
 
TRADING AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS BY US OR OUR AFFILIATES IN THE EQUITY AND EQUITY DERIVATIVE MARKETS MAY AFFECT THE VALUE OF THE SECURITIES — We or one or more of our affiliates expect to 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 Underlyings and make it less likely that you will receive a positive 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 may also engage in trading in instruments linked to the Underlyings 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 Underlyings. By introducing competing products into the marketplace in this manner, we or our 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, investors’ trading and investment strategies related to the securities.
 
 
WE, OUR AFFILIATES OR OUR 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 ADVERSELY AFFECT THE LEVELS OF THE UNDERLYINGS TO WHICH THE SECURITIES ARE LINKED OR THE VALUE OF THE SECURITIES — We, our affiliates or our agents may publish research from time to time on financial markets and other matters that could adversely affect the value of the securities, or express opinions or provide recommendations that are inconsistent with purchasing or holding the securities. Any research, opinions or recommendations expressed by us, our affiliates or our agents may not be consistent with each other and may be modified from time to time without notice. You should make your own independent investigation of the merits of investing in the securities and the Underlyings to which the securities are linked.
 
 
POTENTIAL CONFLICTS OF INTEREST — We and our affiliates play a variety of roles in connection with the issuance of the securities, including acting as calculation agent, hedging our obligations under the securities and determining the Issuer’s estimated value of the securities on the Trade Date and the price, if any, at which we or our affiliates would be willing to purchase the securities from you in secondary market transactions. In performing these duties, our economic interests and those of our other affiliates are potentially adverse to your interests as an investor in the securities. The calculation agent will determine, among other things, whether a Knock-In Event has occurred, the closing levels and Underlying Returns of the Underlyings and the amount that we will pay you upon an Automatic Call or at maturity. The calculation agent will also be responsible for determining whether a market disruption event has occurred. The determination of a market disruption event by the calculation agent could adversely affect the amount payable on the securities.
 
 
THE U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES OF AN INVESTMENT IN THE SECURITIES ARE UNCERTAIN  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 that are not debt. If the IRS were successful in asserting an alternative treatment for the securities, the tax consequences of ownership and
 
 
TS-9

 
 
 
disposition of the securities could be materially and adversely affected. In addition, as described above under “Tax Consequences,” in 2007 the U.S. Treasury Department 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. 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. You should review carefully the section of the accompanying product supplement entitled “U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences,” and consult your tax adviser 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.

Historical Information
 
The following graphs set forth the historical performances of the S&P 500® Index and the EURO STOXX 50® Index based on their respective daily closing levels from June 26, 2009 through June 26, 2014. The closing level of the S&P 500® Index on June 26, 2014 was 1,957.22. The closing level of the EURO STOXX 50® Index on June 26, 2014  was 3,233.19. We obtained the historical closing levels of the Underlyings below from Bloomberg, and we have not participated in the preparation of, or verified, such information. The historical closing levels of the Underlyings should not be taken as an indication of future performance, and no assurance can be given as to the closing levels of the Underlyings on any of the Call Dates, including the Final Valuation Date. We cannot give you assurance that the performance of the Underlyings will result in the return of any of your initial investment.

Supplemental Underwriting Information (Conflicts of Interest)
 
Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. (DBSI), acting as agent for Deutsche Bank AG, will receive or allow as a concession or reallowance to other dealers discounts and commissions of 2.25% or $22.50 per $1,000 Face Amount of securities. DBSI may sell all or a part of the securities that it purchases from us to its affiliates or certain dealers at the price to the public indicated on the cover of this term sheet, minus a concession not to exceed the discounts and commissions indicated on the cover. DBSI, the agent for this offering, is our affiliate. Because DBSI is both our affiliate and a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (“FINRA”), the underwriting arrangements for this offering must comply with the requirements of FINRA Rule 5121 regarding a FINRA member firm’s distribution of the securities of an affiliate and related conflicts of interest. In accordance with FINRA Rule 5121, DBSI may not make sales in offerings of the securities to any of its discretionary accounts without the prior written approval of the customer. See “Underwriting (Conflicts of Interest)” in the accompanying product supplement.
 
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, if the Settlement Date is more than three business days after the Trade Date, purchasers who wish to transact in the securities more than three business days prior to the Settlement Date will be required to specify alternative settlement arrangements to prevent a failed settlement.
