ELIGIBLE LIABILITIES SENIOR NOTES, SERIES D
Terms and Conditions Friday, August 11, 2017
RESOLUTION MEASURES AND DEEMED AGREEMENT
On May 15, 2014, the European Parliament and the Council of the European Union adopted a directive establishing a
framework for the recovery and resolution of credit institutions and investment firms (commonly referred to as the "Bank
Recovery and Resolution Directive"). The Bank Recovery and Resolution Directive required each member state of the
European Union to adopt and publish by December 31, 2014 the laws, regulations and administrative provisions necessary
to comply with the Bank Recovery and Resolution Directive. Germany adopted the Recovery and Resolution Act
(Sanierungs- und Abwicklungsgesetz, or the "Resolution Act"), which became effective on January 1, 2015. The Bank
Recovery and Resolution Directive and the Resolution Act provided national resolution authorities with a set of resolution
powers to intervene in the event that a bank is failing or likely to fail and certain other conditions are met. From January 1,
Global Markets 2016, the power to initiate resolution measures applicable to significant banking groups (such as Deutsche Bank Group) in
the European Banking Union has been transferred to the European Single Resolution Board which, based on the European
Union regulation establishing uniform rules and a uniform procedure for the resolution of credit institutions and certain
investment firms in the framework of a Single Resolution Mechanism and a Single Resolution Fund (the "SRM
Regulation"), works in close cooperation with the European Central Bank, the European Commission and the national
resolution authorities. Pursuant to the SRM Regulation, the Resolution Act and other applicable rules and regulations, the
notes may be subject to any Resolution Measure by the competent resolution authority if we become, or are deemed by the
competent supervisory authority to have become, "non-viable" (as defined under the then applicable law) and are unable to
continue our regulated banking activities without a Resolution Measure becoming applicable to us. By acquiring the notes,
you will be bound by and deemed irrevocably to consent to the provisions set forth in the accompanying prospectus, which
we have summarized below.
Pursuant to the German Banking Act as amended by the German law on the mechanism for the resolution of banks of
November 2, 2015 (Abwicklungsmechanismusgesetz, or the "Resolution Mechanism Act"), in a German insolvency
proceeding or in the event of the imposition of Resolution Measures with respect to the Issuer, certain specifically defined
senior unsecured debt instruments, including the notes, would rank junior to, without constituting subordinated debt, all other
outstanding unsecured unsubordinated obligations of the Issuer and would be satisfied only if all such other senior
unsecured unsubordinated obligations of the Issuer have been paid in full. The Resolution Mechanism Act could lead to
increased losses for the holders of the notes if insolvency proceedings were initiated or Resolution Measures
imposed upon the Issuer. See the risk factor below and "Risk Factors" in the accompanying prospectus for more
information.
By acquiring the notes, you will be bound by and deemed irrevocably to consent to the imposition of any Resolution
Measure by the competent resolution authority. Under the relevant resolution laws and regulations as applicable to us from
time to time, the notes may be subject to the powers exercised by the competent resolution authority to: (i) write down,
including to zero, any payment on the notes; (ii) convert the notes into ordinary shares of (a) the Issuer, (b) any group entity
or (c) any bridge bank or other instruments of ownership of such entities qualifying as common equity tier 1 capital (and the
issue to or conferral of the holders (including the beneficial owners) of such ordinary shares or instruments); and/or (iii) apply
any other resolution measure including, but not limited to, any transfer of the notes to another entity, the amendment,
modification or variation of the terms and conditions of the notes or the cancellation of the notes. We refer to each of these
measures as a "Resolution Measure." A "group entity" refers to an entity that is included in the corporate group subject to a
Resolution Measure. A "bridge bank" refers to a newly chartered German bank that would receive some or all of our equity
securities, assets, liabilities and material contracts, including those attributable to our branches and subsidiaries, in a
resolution proceeding.
Furthermore, by acquiring the notes, you:
[] are deemed irrevocably to have agreed, and you will agree: (i) to be bound
by, to acknowledge and to accept any Resolution Measure and any amendment,
modification or variation of the terms and conditions of the notes to give
effect to any Resolution Measure; (ii) that you will have no claim or other
right against us arising out of any Resolution Measure; and (iii) that the
imposition of any Resolution Measure will not constitute a default or an event
of default under the notes, under the Eligible Liabilities Senior Indenture
dated April 19, 2017 among us, The Bank of New York Mellon, as trustee, and
Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as paying agent, authenticating agent,
issuing agent and registrar, as amended and supplemented from time to time (the
"Indenture"), or for the purposes of, but only to the fullest extent
permitted by, the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the "Trust
Indenture Act"); [] waive, to the fullest extent permitted by the Trust
Indenture Act and applicable law, any and all claims against the trustee and
the paying agent, the issuing agent and the registrar (each, an "indenture
agent") for, agree not to initiate a suit against the trustee or the indenture
agents in respect of, and agree that the trustee and the indenture agents will
not be liable for, any action that the trustee or any of the indenture agents
takes, or abstains from taking, in either case in accordance with the
imposition of a Resolution Measure by the competent resolution authority with
respect to the notes; and [] will be deemed irrevocably to have: (i) consented
to the imposition of any Resolution Measure as it may be imposed without any
prior notice by the competent resolution authority of its decision to exercise
such power with respect to

the notes; (ii) authorized, directed and requested The Depository Trust Company ("DTC") and any direct participant in
DTC or other intermediary through which you hold such notes to take any and all necessary action, if required, to
implement the imposition of any Resolution Measure with respect to the notes as it may be imposed, without any
further action or direction on your part or on the part of the trustee or the indenture agents; and (iii) acknowledged
and accepted that the Resolution Measure provisions described herein and in the "Resolution Measures" section of
the accompanying prospectus are exhaustive on the matters described herein and therein to the exclusion of any
other agreements, arrangements or understandings between you and the Issuer relating to the terms and conditions
of the notes.
This is only a summary, for more information please see the accompanying prospectus dated July 7, 2017, including the risk
Global Markets factors beginning on page 9 of such prospectus.
THE NOTES ARE SUBJECT TO THE CREDIT OF DEUTSCHE BANK AG
The notes are senior unsecured obligations of Deutsche Bank AG and are not,
either directly or indirectly, an obligation of any third party. Any interest
payments to be made on the notes and the repayment of principal at maturity
depend on the ability of Deutsche Bank AG to satisfy its obligations as they
become 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
Deutsche Bank AG's credit risk will likely have an adverse effect on the value
of the notes. As a result, the actual and perceived creditworthiness of
Deutsche Bank AG will affect the value of the notes. On March 28, 2017,
Standard and Poor's downgraded Deutsche Bank AG's long-term issue ratings on
certain senior unsecured debt instruments reclassified as senior subordinated
debt due to Germany's recently introduced law from "BBB+" to "BBB-." Any future
downgrade could materially affect Deutsche Bank AG's funding costs and cause
the trading price of the notes to decline significantly. Additionally, under
many derivative contracts to which Deutsche Bank AG is a party, a downgrade
could require it to post additional collateral, lead to terminations of
contracts with accompanying payment obligations or give counterparties
additional remedies. In the event Deutsche Bank AG were to default on its
payment obligations or become subject to a Resolution Measure, you might not
receive interest and principal payments owed to you under the terms of the
notes and you could lose your entire investment.
THE NOTES MAY BE WRITTEN DOWN, BE CONVERTED INTO ORDINARY SHARES OR OTHER
INSTRUMENTS OF
OWNERSHIP OR BECOME SUBJECT TO OTHER RESOLUTION MEASURES. IN A GERMAN
INSOLVENCY PROCEEDING OR IN THE EVENT OF THE IMPOSITION OF RESOLUTION MEASURES
WITH RESPECT TO THE
ISSUER, THE NOTES WOULD BE SATISFIED ONLY IF CERTAIN OTHER UNSECURED
UNSUBORDINATED OBLIGATIONS OF THE ISSUER HAVE BEEN PAID IN FULL. YOU MAY LOSE
SOME OR ALL OF YOUR INVESTMENT IF ANY SUCH MEASURE BECOMES APPLICABLE TO US
Pursuant to the SRM Regulation, the Resolution Act and other applicable rules
and regulations described above under "Resolution Measures and Deemed
Agreement," the notes are subject to the powers exercised by the competent
resolution authority to impose Resolution Measures on us, which may include:
writing down, including to zero, any claim for payment on the notes; converting
the notes into ordinary shares of (i) the Issuer, (ii) any group entity or
(iii) any bridge bank or other instruments of ownership of such entities
qualifying as common equity tier 1 capital (and the issue to or conferral of
the holders (including the beneficial owners) of such ordinary shares or
instruments); or applying any other resolution measure including, but not
limited to, transferring the notes to another entity, amending, modifying or
varying the terms and conditions of the notes or cancelling the notes. The
competent resolution authority may apply Resolution Measures individually or in
any combination.
The Resolution Mechanism Act provides that, in a German insolvency proceeding
of the Issuer, certain specifically defined senior unsecured debt instruments,
including the notes, would rank junior to, without constituting subordinated
debt, all other outstanding unsecured unsubordinated obligations of the Issuer
and would be satisfied only if all such other senior unsecured unsubordinated
obligations of the Issuer have been paid in full. This prioritization would
also be given effect if Resolution Measures are imposed on the Issuer, so that
obligations under debt instruments that rank junior in insolvency as described
above would be written down or converted into common equity tier 1 instruments
before any other senior unsecured obligations of the Issuer are written down or
converted. A large portion of our liabilities consist of senior unsecured
obligations that either fall outside the statutory definition of debt
instruments that rank junior to other senior unsecured obligations according to
the Resolution Mechanism Act or are expressly exempted from such definition.
Among those unsecured unsubordinated obligations that are expressly exempted
are money market instruments and senior unsecured debt instruments whose terms
provide that (i) the amount of the repayment depends on the occurrence or
non-occurrence of an event which is uncertain at the point in time when the
senior unsecured debt instruments are issued or settlement is effected in a way
other than by monetary payment, or (ii) the amount of the interest payments
depends on the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event which is uncertain at
the point in time when the senior unsecured debt instruments are issued unless
the payment of interest or the amount of the interest payments solely depends
on a fixed or floating reference interest rate and settlement is effected by
monetary payment. This order of priority introduced by the Resolution Mechanism
Act became effective on January 1, 2017 and would apply to the then outstanding
debt instruments of the Issuer if German insolvency proceedings were
instituted, or if Resolution Measures were imposed, on such debt instruments.
In a German insolvency proceeding or in the event of the imposition of
Resolution Measures with respect to the

Issuer, the competent resolution authority or court would determine whether the securities offered by the prospectus have
the terms described in clauses (i) or (ii) above, referred to herein as "Structured Debt Securities," or whether they do not,
referred to herein as "Non-Structured Debt Securities." We expect and intend the notes offered herein to be classified
as Non-Structured Debt Securities. In a German insolvency proceeding or in the event of the imposition of Resolution
Measures with respect to the Issuer, the unsecured unsubordinated obligations of the Issuer that either fall outside the
statutory definition of debt instruments that rank junior to other senior unsecured obligations or are expressly exempted from
such definition, including any Structured Debt Securities, are expected to bear losses after the Non-Structured Debt
Securities (including the notes) as described above. The Resolution Mechanism Act could lead to increased losses for
the holders of the notes if insolvency proceedings were initiated or Resolution Measures imposed upon the Issuer.
Global Markets In November 2016, the European Commission proposed substantial amendments to, among other laws, the Capital
Requirements Regulation, the Bank Recovery and Resolution Directive and the SRM Regulation. The proposals cover
multiple areas, including the ranking of certain unsecured debt instruments in national insolvency proceedings (to include a
new category of 'non-preferred' senior debt referred to as "eligible liabilities instruments"), the introduction of a moratorium
tool, refinements of the minimum requirement for own funds and eligible liabilities (or "MREL") framework, and the
integration of the minimum total loss-absorbing capacity (or "TLAC") standard into EU legislation. Based upon the current
proposals, we expect the securities to qualify as "eligible liabilities instruments" and to continue to rank similar to Non-
Structured Debt Securities once the proposals become effective. The proposals, if they are enacted as proposed, may also
enable us to issue instruments similar to the securities but ranking senior to them. The proposals are to be considered by
the European Parliament and the Council of the European Union and therefore remain subject to change. The legislation
when final may not include all elements of the proposals and new or amended elements may be introduced in the course of
the legislative process. Until the proposals are in final form, it is uncertain how the proposals will affect us or holders of the
securities. The current proposals, as well as the economic and financial environment at the time of implementation and
beyond, can have a material impact on our operations and financial condition and they may require us to raise additional
capital or issue additional "eligible liabilities instruments."
Imposition of a Resolution Measure would likely occur if we become, or are deemed by the competent supervisory authority
to have become, "non-viable" (as defined under the then applicable law) and are unable to continue our regulated banking
activities without a Resolution Measure becoming applicable to us. The Bank Recovery and Resolution Directive and the
Resolution Act are intended to eliminate the need for public support of troubled banks, and you should be aware that public
support, if any, would only potentially be used by the competent supervisory authority as a last resort after having assessed
and exploited, to the maximum extent practicable, the resolution tools, including the bail-in tool. You may lose some or all
of your investment in the notes if a Resolution Measure becomes applicable to us.
By acquiring the notes, you would have no claim or other right against us arising out of any Resolution Measure and we
would have no obligation to make payments under the notes following the imposition of a Resolution Measure. In particular,
the imposition of any Resolution Measure will not constitute a default or an event of default under the notes, under the
Indenture or for the purposes of, but only to the fullest extent permitted by, the Trust Indenture Act. Furthermore, because
the notes are subject to any Resolution Measure, secondary market trading in the notes may not follow the trading behavior
associated with similar types of securities issued by other financial institutions which may be or have been subject to a
Resolution Measure. In addition, secondary market trading in the notes may not follow the trading behavior associated either
with Structured Debt Securities issued by us or with securities issued by other financial institutions that are not subject to the
Resolution Mechanism Act or similar laws.
In addition, by your acquisition of the notes, you waive, to the fullest extent permitted by the Trust Indenture Act and
applicable law, any and all claims against the trustee and the indenture agents for, agree not to initiate a suit against the
trustee or any indenture agent in respect of, and agree that the trustee and the indenture agents will not be liable for, any
action that the trustee or any indenture agent takes, or abstains from taking, in either case in accordance with the imposition
of a Resolution Measure by the competent resolution authority with respect to the notes. Accordingly, you may have
limited or circumscribed rights to challenge any decision of the competent resolution authority to impose any
Resolution Measure.
