RESOLU T I ON M EASU RES AN D DEEM ED AGREEM EN T

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 "Ba nk
Re c ove ry a nd Re solut ion Dire c t ive "). 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 "Re solut ion Ac t "), 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, 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 Re gula t ion"), 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 "Re solut ion M e c ha nism Ac t "), 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. T he Re solut ion M e c ha nism Ac t c ould le a d t o inc re a se d losse s 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 "Re solut ion M e a sure ." 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 "I nde nt ure "), or for the purposes of, but only to the fullest extent
permitted by, the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended (the "T rust I nde nt ure Ac t ");

· 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 authenticating agent, the issuing agent and the registrar (each, an "inde nt ure a ge nt ") 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

PS-2


· 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 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.

An investment in the notes involves risks. This section describes the most significant risks relating to the notes. For a complete
list of risk factors, please see the accompanying prospectus supplement and prospectus.

· THE NOTES ARE SUBJECT TO THE CREDIT OF DEUTSCHE BANK AG -- The notes are unsecured,
unsubordinated senior non-preferred 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 & 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-." On December 12, 2017,
Moody's affirmed Deutsche Bank AG's senior unsecured rating of Baa2 but changed the outlook for this debt class from
"stable" to "negative." 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
https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1159508/000095010318000609/dp85360_424b2-ps3015.htm[1/19/2018 4:29:13 PM]


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.

APPLI CABLE T O U S -- 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 "St ruc t ure d De bt Se c urit ie s ," or whether
they do not, referred to herein as "N on -St ruc t ure d

including any Structured Debt Securities, are expected to bear losses after the Non-Structured Debt Securities (including
the notes) as described above. T he Re solut ion M e c ha nism Ac t c ould le a d t o inc re a se d losse s for t he

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
https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1159508/000095010318000609/dp85360_424b2-ps3015.htm[1/19/2018 4:29:13 PM]


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 "M REL ") framework, and the
integration of the minimum total loss-absorbing capacity (or "T LAC ") standard into EU legislation. Based upon the current
proposals, we expect the notes 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 notes 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
notes. 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. Y ou m a y lose som e or
a ll of your inve st m e nt in t he not e s if a Re solut ion M e a sure be c om e s a pplic a ble t o 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

· THE NOTES CONTAIN LIMITED EVENTS OF DEFAULT , AND THE REMEDIES AVAILABLE THEREUNDER
ARE LI M I T ED -- As described in "Description of Eligible Liabilities Senior Debt Securities -- Events of Default" in the
accompanying prospectus, the notes provide for no event of default other than the opening of insolvency proceedings
against us by a German court having jurisdiction over us. In particular, the imposition of a Resolution Measure will not
constitute an event of default with respect to the Indenture or the notes.

If an event of default occurs, holders of the notes have only limited enforcement remedies. If an event of default with
respect to the notes occurs or is continuing, either the trustee or the holders of not less than 33 1/3% in aggregate
principal amount of all outstanding debt securities issued under the Indenture, including the notes, voting as one class,
may declare the principal amount of the notes and interest accrued thereon to be

due and payable immediately. We may issue further series of debt securities under the Indenture and these would be
included in that class of outstanding debt securities.

In particular, holders of the notes will have no right of acceleration in the case of a default in the payment of principal of,
interest on, or other amounts owing under, the notes. If such a default occurs and is continuing with respect to the notes,
the trustee and the holders of the notes could take legal action against us, but they may not accelerate the maturity of the

notes. Moreover, if we fail to make any payment because of the imposition of a Resolution Measure, the trustee and the
holders of the notes would not be permitted to take such action, and in such a case you may permanently lose the right to
the affected amounts.

Holders will also have no rights of acceleration due to a default in the performance of any of our other covenants under the
notes.

U N CERT AI N T Y ABOU T T H E FU T U RE OF LI BOR M AY ADV ERSELY AFFECT T H E RET U RN ON Y OU R
N OT ES -- On July 27, 2017, the Chief Executive of the United Kingdom Financial Conduct Authority, which regulates
LIBOR, announced that it intends to stop persuading or compelling banks to submit rates for the calculation of LIBOR to
the administrator of LIBOR after 2021. The announcement indicates that, due to the absence of active underlying markets,
the continuation of LIBOR benchmarks that are based on these markets cannot and will not be guaranteed after 2021. It is
impossible to predict whether, and to what extent, banks will continue to provide LIBOR submissions to the administrator of
LIBOR to allow for the calculation of LIBOR in its current form, or whether any additional reforms to LIBOR may be
enacted in the United Kingdom or elsewhere.

At this time, no consensus exists as to what rate or rates may become accepted alternatives to LIBOR and it is impossible
to predict the effect of any such alternatives on the value of LIBOR-based securities, such as the notes. Uncertainty as to
the nature of alternative reference rates and as to potential changes or other reforms to LIBOR may adversely affect
LIBOR, and thus, your return on the notes as well as the trading market for the notes.

·
POT EN T I AL CON FLI CT S OF I N T EREST M AY ARI SE I F T H E BASE RAT E H AS BEEN PERM AN EN T LY
DI SCON T I N U ED OR I S U N AV AI LABLE -- Because Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch is acting as the calculation
agent for the notes, a conflict of interest may arise due to our economic interests potentially being adverse to your interests
as an investor in the notes. As the calculation agent, Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch will determine, among other
things, the amount of interest payable in respect of the notes on each Interest Payment Date. In addition, if LIBOR has
been permanently discontinued, the calculation agent will select an alternative reference rate for the notes and may adjust
certain terms of the notes. The terms that the calculation agent may adjust include, but are not limited to, the Base Rate
(as defined below), the applicable currency and/or index maturity for such alternative reference rate, the Spread, as well as
the business day convention, the definition of Business Day, Interest Determination Dates and related provisions and
definitions. Furthermore, if LIBOR is unavailable on an Interest Determination Date but has not been permanently
discontinued, the calculation agent may determine the interest rate on such Interest Determination Date in its sole
discretion. Any selection, adjustments or determinations by the calculation agent could adversely affect the applicable
interest rate for, and thus, your return on, the notes.

·
T H E N OT ES WI LL N OT BE LI ST ED AN D T H ERE WI LL LI K ELY BE LI M I T ED LI QU I DI T Y -- The notes will not
be listed on any securities exchange. There may be little or no secondary market for the notes. We or our affiliates intend
to act as market makers for the notes but are not required to do so and may cease such market making activities at any
time. Even if there is a secondary market, it may not provide enough liquidity to allow you to trade or sell the notes when
you wish to do so or at a price advantageous to you. Because we do not expect that other market makers will participate
significantly in the secondary market for the notes, the price at which you may be able to sell your notes is likely to depend
on the price, if any, at which we or our affiliates are willing to buy the notes. 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 notes.

·
M AN Y ECON OM I C AN D M ARK ET FACT ORS WI LL AFFECT T H E V ALU E OF T H E N OT ES -- The value of the
notes prior to maturity will be affected by a number of economic and market factors that may either offset or magnify each
other, including:

o
the time remaining to the maturity of the notes;

o
trends relating to inflation;

o
interest rates and yields in the markets generally;

o
the actual or anticipated rate of LIBOR;

o
geopolitical conditions and economic, financial, political, regulatory or judicial events that affect the markets
generally;

o
supply and demand for the notes; and

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

During the term of the notes, it is possible that their value may decline significantly due to the factors described above, and
any sale prior to the Maturity Date could result in a substantial loss to you. You must hold the notes to maturity to receive
the repayment of principal.

DESCRI PT I ON OF T H E N OT ES

The following description of the terms of the notes supplements the description of the general terms of the debt securities set
forth under the headings "Description of Notes" in the accompanying prospectus supplement and "Description of Eligible Liabilities
Senior Debt Securities" in the accompanying prospectus. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this pricing supplement have
the meanings assigned to them in the accompanying prospectus supplement and prospectus. The term "notes" refers to our 3
Year Floating Rate Eligible Liabilities Senior Notes due January 22, 2021.

Ge ne ra l

The notes are unsecured, unsubordinated senior non-preferred obligations of Deutsche Bank AG that pay interest at a variable
rate equal to 3-month USD LIBOR plus 0.815%. The interest will be paid on a quarterly basis in arrears on each Interest Payment
Date, including the Maturity Date, based on an actual/360 day count convention. The notes are our Eligible Liabilities Senior Notes,
Series D referred to in the accompanying prospectus supplement and prospectus. The notes will be issued by Deutsche Bank AG
New York Branch under an indenture 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. From t im e t o t im e , w e m a y c re a t e a nd issue

issua nc e a s t he e a rlie r not e s.

The notes are not deposits or savings accounts and are not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance
Corporation or any other U.S. or foreign governmental agency or instrumentality.

The notes are our direct, unconditional, unsecured and unsubordinated obligations and rank equally and pari passu with all of
our other unsecured and unsubordinated debt, subject to any statutory priority regime under German law that provides certain
claims will be satisfied first in a resolution or insolvency proceeding with respect to the Issuer and save for those preferred by
mandatory provisions of law. Under German law, the notes constitute non-preferred debt instruments within the meaning of Section
46f(6) sentence 1 of the German Banking Act (Kreditwesengesetz). For more information, see "Resolution Measures and Deemed
Agreement" on page PS­2 of this pricing supplement.

The notes will be issued in minimum denominations of $100,000 and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. The
principal amount (the "Princ ipa l Am ount ") of the notes is $1,000 and the Issue Price of the notes is $1,000. The notes will be
issued in registered form and represented by one or more permanent global notes registered in the name of The Depository Trust
Company ("DT C") or its nominee, as described under "Description of Notes -- Form, Legal Ownership and Denomination of Notes"
in the accompanying prospectus supplement and "Forms of Securities -- Legal Ownership -- Global Securities" in the
accompanying prospectus.

Pa ym e nt s on t he N ot e s

The "M a t urit y Da t e " will be January 22, 2021, unless that day is not a Business Day, in which case the Maturity Date will
be the first following Business Day. On the Maturity Date, you will receive a cash payment, for each $1,000 Principal Amount of
notes, of $1,000 plus any accrued but unpaid interest. If the scheduled Maturity Date is not a Business Day, the principal plus any
accrued but unpaid interest will be paid on the first following day that is a Business Day with the full force and effect as if made on
the scheduled Maturity Date, and no interest on such postponed payment will accrue during the period from and after the
scheduled Maturity Date.

https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1159508/000095010318000609/dp85360_424b2-ps3015.htm[1/19/2018 4:29:13 PM]


The notes will bear interest from the Settlement Date at a variable Interest Rate, payable on a quarterly basis in arrears on
January 22, April 22, July 22 and October 22 of each year (each, an "I nt e re st Pa ym e nt Da t e "), commencing on April 22, 2018
and ending on the Maturity Date, based on an actual/360 day count convention. If any scheduled Interest Payment Date (other
than the Maturity Date) is not a Business Day, the Interest Payment Date will be postponed to the following Business Day, except
that, if that Business Day would fall in the next calendar month, the Interest Payment Date will be the immediately preceding
Business Day.

The "I nt e re st Ra t e " for each Reset Period commencing on an Interest Reset Date will be equal to the Base Rate (to be
determined by the calculation agent on the relevant Interest Determination Date) plus the Spread. The Initial Interest Rate will be
equal to the Base Rate (to be determined by the calculation agent on the second London Banking Day prior to the Settlement
Date) plus the Spread.

The "Ba se Ra t e " is 3-month USD LIBOR.

The "Spre a d" is plus 0.815%.

Each "Re se t Pe riod" will be from, and including, an Interest Reset Date to, but excluding, the following Interest Reset Date,
with the final Reset Period ending on, but excluding, the Maturity Date.

The "I nt e re st Re se t Da t e s " will be the Interest Payment Dates.

PS-9


Each "I nt e re st De t e rm ina t ion Da t e " will be the second London Banking Day preceding the relevant Interest Reset Date.

A "London Ba nk ing Da y" is any day on which dealings in deposits in U.S. dollars are transacted in the London interbank
market.

We will irrevocably deposit with DTC no later than the opening of business on the applicable Interest Payment Date and the
Maturity Date funds sufficient to make payments of the amount payable with respect to the notes on such date. We will give DTC
irrevocable instructions and authority to pay such amount to the holders of the notes entitled thereto.

A "Busine ss Da y" is any day that is a London Banking Day other than a day that is (i) a Saturday or Sunday, (ii) a day on
which banking institutions generally in the City of New York or London, England are authorized or obligated by law, regulation or
executive order to close, (iii) a day on which transactions in U.S. dollars are not conducted in the City of New York or London,
England or (iv) a day on which TARGET2 is not operating.

Subject to the foregoing and to applicable law (including, without limitation, United States federal laws) and subject to approval
by the competent authority if then required under applicable law, capital adequacy guidelines, regulations or policies of such
competent authority, we or our affiliates may, at any time and from time to time, purchase outstanding notes by tender, in open
market transactions or by private agreement.

LI BOR De t e rm ina t ion

If 3-month USD LIBOR cannot be determined on any Interest Determination Date as described in the first bullet of the second
paragraph under "Description of Notes -- Interest Rates -- Floating Rate Notes -- LIBOR Notes" in the accompanying prospectus
supplement, then 3-month USD LIBOR will be determined in accordance with the following procedures, which supersede the
procedures in the second through fourth bullets of such second paragraph:

·
If the calculation agent determines that 3-month USD LIBOR has been permanently discontinued, the calculation agent
will, in its sole discretion, select an alternative reference rate as a substitute interest rate for the notes; provided that if
the calculation agent determines that there is an industry accepted successor interest rate for the discontinued 3-
month USD LIBOR, the calculation agent shall use such successor interest rate as the substitute interest rate for the
notes. As part of any such substitution, the calculation agent may make adjustments to the terms of the notes,
including, but not limited to, the definition of the Base Rate (including the related fallback mechanism), the applicable
currency and/or index maturity for such alternative reference rate, the Spread, as well as the business day convention,
the definition of Business Day, the Interest Determination Dates and related provisions and definitions, in each case
consistent with accepted market practice for the use of such alternative reference rate for debt obligations such as the
notes.

·
If the calculation agent has not selected an alternative reference rate as a substitute interest rate for the notes as
provided above, the following will apply:

o
If (a) fewer than two offered rates appear and Reuters page LIBOR01 (or any other page as may replace Reuters
page LIBOR01) ("Re ut e rs Pa ge LI BOR0 1 ") does not by its terms provide only for a single rate or (b) no rate
appears and Reuters Page LIBOR01 by its terms provides only for a single rate, then the calculation agent will
request the principal London offices of each of four major reference banks (which may include us or our affiliates)
in the London interbank market, as selected by the calculation agent, to provide the calculation agent with its
offered quotation for deposits in U.S. dollars with a maturity of three months, commencing on the applicable
Interest Reset Date, to prime banks in the London interbank market at approximately 11:00 A.M., London time, on
such Interest Determination Date and in a principal amount that is representative for a single transaction in U.S.
dollars in such market at such time. If at least two such quotations are so provided, then the 3-month USD LIBOR
on such Interest Determination Date will be the arithmetic mean of such quotations.

o
If fewer than two such quotations are so provided by the major reference banks, then 3-month USD LIBOR on
such Interest Determination Date will be the arithmetic mean of the rates quoted at approximately 11:00 A.M., in
the applicable principal financial center, on such Interest Determination Date by three major banks (which may
include us or our affiliates) in such principal financial center selected by the calculation agent for loans in U.S.
dollars to leading European banks, having a maturity of three months and in a principal amount that is
representative for a single transaction in U.S. dollars in such market at such time.

o
If the banks so selected by the calculation agent are not providing quotations as set forth above, then the
calculation agent, after consulting such sources as it deems comparable to any of the foregoing quotations or
display page, or any such source as it deems reasonable from which to

PS-10


estimate 3-month USD LIBOR, will determine 3-month USD LIBOR for that Interest Determination Date in its sole
discretion.

Ca lc ula t ion Age nt

Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch will act as the calculation agent. As the calculation agent, Deutsche Bank AG, London
Branch will determine, among other things, the amount of interest payable in respect of your notes on each Interest Payment Date.
Unless otherwise specified in this pricing supplement, all determinations made by the calculation agent will be at the sole discretion
of the calculation agent and will, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive for all purposes and binding on you, the trustee
and us. We may appoint a different calculation agent from time to time after the date of this pricing supplement without your
consent and without notifying you.

The calculation agent will provide written notice to the trustee at its New York office, on which notice the trustee may
conclusively rely, of the amount to be paid on each Interest Payment Date and at maturity on or prior to 11:00 a.m., New York City
time, on the Business Day preceding each Interest Payment Date and the Maturity Date, as applicable.

All calculations with respect to the amount of interest payable on the notes will be rounded to the nearest one hundred-
thousandth, with five one-millionths rounded upward (e.g., 0.876545 would be rounded to 0.87655); all U.S. dollar amounts related
to determination of the payment per $1,000 Principal Amount of notes at maturity will be rounded to the nearest ten-thousandth,
with five one hundred-thousandths rounded upward (e.g., 0.76545 would be rounded up to 0.7655); and all U.S. dollar amounts
paid on the aggregate Principal Amount of notes per holder will be rounded to the nearest cent, with one-half cent rounded upward.
