SECS
(a limited partnership (société en commandite simple) established under the laws of Luxembourg on 27 August 2010)
for purposes of acquiring a silent capital interest in the commercial enterprise (Handelsgewerbe) of
Deutsche Hypothekenbank (Actien-Gesellschaft)
incorporated as a stock corporation (Aktiengesellschaft) under German law
Issue Price 100 per cent.
This prospectus (the "Prospectus") relates to the issue of the [ ] capital notes in the denomination of 1,000 each (the "Capital Notes"), to be
issued by Charlottenburg Capital International S.àr.l. & Cie SECS (the "Issuer"), a limited partnership established under the laws of Luxembourg on
27 August 2010. The issue price of the Capital Securities is 100 per cent. of their nominal amount.
The Capital Notes are expected to bear interest at a fixed rate starting to accrue from (and including) the date of issue of the Capital Notes (expected
to be on or around 29 September 2010, hereinafter the "Issue Date"). Interest shall be payable annually in arrear on 30 June of each year. The first
payment of interest to be made on 30 June 2011 will be in respect of the period from (and including) the Issue Date to (but excluding) 30 June 2011.
Payments of interest (each a "Coupon Payment") may be delayed and are contingent on the Issuer's actual receipt of funds pursuant to the
Participation Agreement and the Loan Agreement (each as defined herein) as described in the section entitled "Terms and Conditions of the Capital
Notes". Coupon Payments are non-cumulative and Coupon Payments in following years will not increase to compensate for any shortfall in Coupon
Payments in any previous year. The Capital Notes do not have a maturity date. The Capital Notes are redeemable in whole, but not in part, at the
option of the Issuer on 30 June 2016 or on 30 June of any year thereafter as described in the section entitled "Terms and Conditions of the Capital
Notes".
With the proceeds of the issue, the Issuer intends to acquire a silent capital interest (the "Participation") in the commercial enterprise (Handels-
gewerbe) of Deutsche Hypothekenbank (Actien-Gesellschaft), Hanover/Berlin ("Deutsche Hypothekenbank" or the "Bank") in the form of a silent
partnership (Stille Gesellschaft) under German law pursuant to an agreement providing for a cash contribution by the Issuer to Deutsche
Hypothekenbank in an amount to be determined by the Issuer and Deutsche Hypothekenbank on or around 22 September 2010 (the "Silent
Contribution") and to be entered into on or around 22 September 2010 (the "Participation Agreement"). The Issuer expects to fund Coupon
Payments on the Capital Notes with distributions received from Deutsche Hypothekenbank under the Participation Agreement and funds received from
Norddeutsche Landesbank Luxembourg S.A. (the "Lender") under the Loan Agreement (as defined below).
The final aggregate nominal amount and the rate of interest of the Capital Notes are expected to be determined by the Issuer on or around
22 September 2010 on the basis of a bookbuilding procedure, involving (i) qualified investors to whom an offer does not require an approved offer
document by the relevant competent authority and (ii) investors in the Federal Republic of Germany, the Kingdom of the Netherlands, the Kingdom of
Belgium, the Republic of Ireland and the Republic of Austria, carried out during the bookbuilding period beginning on or around the date of this
Prospectus and ending on or around 22 September 2010. The Issuer reserves the right to extend or shorten the offer period in accordance with
applicable law. The Issuer also retains the right not to proceed with the issue of the Capital Notes. The results of the bookbuilding procedure will be

(the "Prospectus Directive") and the Luxembourg Loi relative aux prospectus pour valeurs mobilières of 10 July 2005 (the "Prospectus Law") which

the relevant rating agency.

Luxembourg (the "CSSF") in its capacity as competent authority under the Prospectus Law. The Issuer has requested the CSSF to provide the

unless it is misleading, inaccurate or inconsistent when read together with the other parts of this Prospectus.
Introductory Overview of the Transaction
The following paragraphs contain a brief overview of the most significant features of the transaction consisting of the issuance of the
Capital Notes by the Issuer and payment of the proceeds therefrom to the Bank under the Participation Agreement (the
"Transaction").
The Issuer proposes to issue the euro denominated Capital Notes for the purpose of acquiring a silent capital interest (the
"Participation") in the commercial enterprise (Handelsgewerbe) of Deutsche Hypothekenbank (Actien-Gesellschaft), Hanover/Berlin
("Deutsche Hypothekenbank" or the "Bank"). The final aggregate nominal amount and the rate of interest of the Capital Notes are
expected to be determined by the Issuer on or around 22 September 2010 on the basis of a bookbuilding procedure, involving
(i) qualified investors to whom an offer does not require an approved offer document by the relevant authority and (ii) investors in the
Federal Republic of Germany, the Kingdom of the Netherlands, the Kingdom of Belgium, the Republic of Ireland and the Republic of
Austria, carried out during the bookbuilding period beginning on or around the date of this Prospectus and ending on or around
22 September 2010. The Issuer reserves the right to extend or shorten the offer period in accordance with applicable law. The Issuer
also retains the right not to proceed with the issue of the Capital Notes. The results of the bookbuilding procedure will be published
by the Issuer in accordance with Article 8(1) of the Prospectus Directive and the Luxembourg law on prospectuses for securities of
10 July 2005 on or around 23 September 2010 on the website of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange (www.bourse.lu).
The issue price of the Capital Notes in the denomination of 1,000 each (the "Capital Notes"), issued by Charlottenburg Capital
International S.àr.l. & Cie SECS (the "Issuer"), a limited partnership (société en commandite simple) established under the laws of
Luxembourg on 27 August 2010, is 100 per cent. of their nominal amount.
The Capital Notes are expected to bear interest at a fixed rate starting to accrue from (and including) the date of issue of the Capital
Notes (expected to be on or around 29 September 2010, hereinafter the "Issue Date"). Interest shall be payable annually in arrear
on 30 June of each year. The first payment of interest to be made on 30 June 2011 will be in respect of the period from (and
including) the Issue Date to (but excluding) 30 June 2011. Payments of interest (each a "Coupon Payment") may be delayed and
are contingent on the Issuer's actual receipt of funds pursuant to the Participation Agreement and the Loan Agreement (each as
defined below) as described in the section entitled "Terms and Conditions of the Capital Notes". The Capital Notes do not have a
maturity date. The Capital Notes are redeemable in whole, but not in part, at the option of the Issuer on 30 June 2016 or on 30 June
of any year thereafter as described in the section entitled "Terms and Conditions of the Capital Notes".
With the proceeds of the issue of the Capital Notes, the Issuer intends to acquire the Participation in the commercial enterprise
(Handelsgewerbe) of Deutsche Hypothekenbank in the form of a silent partnership (Stille Gesellschaft) under German law pursuant
to an agreement providing for a cash contribution by the Issuer to Deutsche Hypothekenbank in an amount to be determined by the
Issuer and Deutsche Hypothekenbank on or around 22 September 2010 (the "Silent Contribution") and to be entered into on or
around 22 September 2010 (the "Participation Agreement").
In return, the Issuer, as silent partner, will (subject to the provisions set out below) earn profit participations ("Profit Participations")
calculated annually on the basis of the nominal amount of its Silent Contribution for each fiscal year of the Bank and payable
annually in arrear ("Profit Participation Payments"). The Issuer expects to fund Coupon Payments on the Capital Notes with Profit
Participation Payments received from Deutsche Hypothekenbank under the Participation Agreement and funds received from
Norddeutsche Landesbank Luxembourg S.A. under the Loan Agreement (as defined below).
Profit Participations will, inter alia, not accrue if (but only to the extent that) such payment would lead to or increase a negative
Relevant Profit for the relevant fiscal year of the Bank as calculated under the Participation Agreement in accordance with the
applicable accounting standards (i.e. the accounting standard applicable from time to time to the Bank which is obligatory for the
drawing up of its unconsolidated financial statements which at the start date of the Participation is that defined by the German
Commercial Code (Handelsgesetzbuch)). "Relevant Profits" means the net profit (Jahresüberschuss) or net loss (Jahresfehlbetrag)
of the Bank as shown on the Bank's unconsolidated income statement of the financial statements for the relevant profit period as
audited by an auditing firm which is notified by the Bank to the BaFin, plus withdrawals from other revenue reserves, if any,
accumulated during the term of the Participation Agreement, minus any loss carried forward from the previous year and minus any
amount to be allocated to the statutory reserves pursuant to Section 300 of the German Stock Corporation Act, all in compliance and
determined in accordance with applicable accounting standards. If, during the term of the silent partnership, the Bank enters into a
profit and loss transfer agreement as controlled company, the effect of such profit and loss transfer agreement shall be disregarded
when determining the net profit or net loss, provided, however, that in respect of Profit Participation Payments the position of the
5


silent partner shall not be less favourable than the position of a holder of other present or future instruments of the Bank qualifying
as core capital.
If the profits of the Bank are not sufficient for the accrual of full Profit Participations or if the Bank's solvency ratio (Gesamtkennziffer)
falls below 9 per cent. on an unconsolidated basis, to the extent that payment of such Profit Participation would result in or increase
an annual loss (in accordance with the German Commercial Code (Handelsgesetzbuch)) for the fiscal year of the Bank to which the
relevant Profit Period relates or if certain other conditions are met, Profit Participations may accrue in part or no Profit Participations
may accrue at all. Moreover, under German law, the German Financial Supervisory Authority (Bundesanstalt für
Finanzdienstleistungsaufsicht) ("BaFin") may prohibit or limit the payment of interest on silent partnership interests qualifying as core
capital (such as the funds provided to the Bank under the Participation Agreement) to the extent such payments are not covered by
a current annual net profit.
In addition, in case of a Balance Sheet Deficit, the Issuer as silent partner will share in such Balance Sheet Deficit in the proportion
which the book value of its Silent Contribution bears in relation to the aggregate book value of all loss-sharing components of the
Bank's liable capital (Haftkapitalanteile). In such case, the book value of the Silent Contribution will be reduced in the amount of its
pro-rata share in the relevant Balance Sheet Deficit ("Reduction"). After a Reduction, future Balance Sheet Profits will be used to
replenish the book value of the Silent Contribution to the final aggregate nominal amount of the Capital Notes. Future Profit
Participations may only be paid after a full replenishment of the Silent Contribution's book value to the final aggregate nominal
amount of the Capital Notes. Profit Participation Payments are non-cumulative. Consequently, Profit Participation Payments
in following years will not be increased to compensate for any shortfall in Profit Participation Payments during a previous
year.
"Balance Sheet Deficit" (Bilanzverlust) of the Bank means that no distributable profits (Bilanzgewinn) are shown on the Bank's
unconsolidated balance sheet of the financial statements as calculated under the Participation Agreement in accordance with the
applicable accounting standards ("Balance Sheet Profit"). Under the applicable accounting standards, the Balance Sheet Profit is
derived from the net profit (Jahresüberschuss) or net loss (Jahresfehlbetrag) for the year adjusted for profits/losses carried forward
from the previous fiscal year as well as transfers from capital reserves and revenue reserves (Kapital- und Gewinnrücklagen) and
allocations to revenue reserves as well as transfers from and the reinstatement of the participatory capital (Genussrechtskapital).
However, the Bank is not obligated to release any such reserves or to realise any hidden reserves to ensure an annual Balance
Sheet Profit. If, during the term of the silent partnership, the Bank enters into a profit and loss transfer agreement as controlled
company, the effect of such profit and loss transfer agreement shall be disregarded when determining the net profit or net loss,
provided, however, that in respect of the sharing of losses the position of the silent partner shall not be less favourable than the
position of a holder of other present or future instruments of the Bank qualifying as core capital and/or additional capital.
If the book value of the Silent Contribution has not yet been fully replenished at the time the Silent Contribution becomes due for
repayment, only an amount corresponding to the book value of the Silent Contribution on the relevant date will be repaid under the
Participation Agreement (the lower of the nominal contribution amount and the book value of the Silent Contribution, the
"Repayment Amount").
Profit Participation Payments and replenishments of the Silent Contribution after a Reduction are subject to German withholding tax
(Kapitalertragsteuer) ("German Withholding Tax") plus solidarity surcharge (Solidaritätszuschlag) to be withheld and transferred by
the Bank to the German tax authorities. To the extent such Profit Participation Payments and to the extent such replenishments are
attributable to the limited partner of the Issuer (the "Issuer Limited Partner") as taxable profit under German tax laws, such
withholdings will be counted as a prepayment towards the German corporate income tax owed by the Issuer Limited Partner. The
Issuer Limited Partner expects that it will be entitled to claim refunds from the German tax authorities (the "Tax Refund Claims") in
amounts by which the prepayments in the form of withholdings made by the Bank exceed its actual German corporate income tax
liability. The Issuer Limited Partner will undertake in a separate contribution agreement with the general partner of the Issuer (the
"Issuer General Partner") to be entered into on or around of the Issue Date (the "Contribution Agreement") to contribute to the
Issuer amounts that it receives from the German tax authorities on account of its Tax Refund Claims together with the amounts of
withholdings not resulting in Tax Refund Claims but credited by German tax authorities against the corporate tax liability of the Issuer
Limited Partner, if any, as and when it receives such amounts (each such amount a "Contribution Payment"). As Tax Refund
Claims only become due after the tax assessment for each tax year, the Issuer, on or around the Issue Date, expects to enter into a
loan agreement (the "Loan Agreement") with Norddeutsche Landesbank Luxembourg S.A. (the "Lender") to obtain bridge funding.
Under the Loan Agreement, the Lender is obliged to make loan advances (each a "Loan Advance") to the Issuer. The Loan
Advances will be made (i) in the amount of the withholdings made by the Bank in connection with Profit Participation Payments on
account of German Withholding Tax in order to fund in part the Issuer's obligation to pay interest on the Capital Notes and (ii) in the
amount of the withholdings made by the Bank on account of German Withholding Tax in connection with a replenishment of the
Silent Contribution after a Reduction in order to fund the Issuer's obligation to pay such amount to the Bank. The Issuer expects to
repay the Loan Advances with the monies it receives upon payment of the Contribution Payments.
Payment of principal and interest under the Capital Notes is conditional upon receipt by the Issuer of (i) Profit Participations and the
Repayment Amount from the Bank under the Participation Agreement and (ii) Loan Advances from the Lender under the Loan
Agreement. Hence, payments under the Capital Notes are linked to Profit Participation Payments and payment of the Repayment
Amount which, in turn, are dependent on the Bank's profitability. Therefore, the Issuer's obligation to make Coupon Payments as
well as the repayment of the Capital Notes is dependent on the financial condition and results of operations of the Bank.
If the payment of a Profit Distribution would lead to or increase a negative Relevant Profit of the Bank in any fiscal year,
holders of the Capital Notes (the "Note Holders") will receive no Coupon Payments under the Capital Notes for the
respective fiscal year. Further, if the book value of the Silent Contribution has been reduced below the nominal
contribution amount due to losses of the Bank in previous years, the Note Holders will receive no Coupon Payments under
the Capital Notes until the Silent Contribution has been fully replenished using subsequent Balance Sheet Profits
(Bilanzgewinn) and may not receive repayment on the Capital Notes.
6


Claims under the Participation Agreement are subordinated in the Bank's insolvency or liquidation. Accordingly, the Issuer's rights,
as silent partner, under the Participation Agreement will rank junior to all unsubordinated and subordinated creditors of Deutsche
Hypothekenbank in the event of the insolvency or liquidation of Deutsche Hypothekenbank.
The Capital Notes have an indefinite term and will only be redeemed if the Participation Agreement is terminated and the Silent
Contribution is repaid to the Issuer or if the Issuer chooses to exercise its right of early termination. The Participation Agreement
runs for an indefinite period. Under its terms, the Participation Agreement may only be terminated by the Bank and may not be
terminated by the Issuer. Subject to certain exceptions described in this Prospectus, an ordinary termination of the Participation
Agreement by the Bank will only become effective on or after 31 December 2020. In addition, the Participation Agreement (subject to
certain exceptions described in this Prospectus) stipulates that no termination shall become effective without prior regulatory
approval.
Therefore, Note Holders should be aware that they may be required to bear the financial risks of an investment in the
Capital Notes for an indefinite period of time.
Pursuant to a fiduciary assignment agreement to be entered into on or around the Issue Date ("Fiduciary Assignment
Agreement") between, inter alia, the Issuer, Deutsche Hypothekenbank as Bank, Norddeutsche Landesbank Luxembourg S.A. as
Lender and Deutsche Bank AG, London Branch acting as a security trustee for the benefit of the Note Holders ("Security Trustee"),
the Issuer will assign to the Security Trustee, for the benefit of the Note Holders, all present and future payment claims under the
Participation Agreement and the Loan Agreement.
Deutsche Hypothekenbank intends to treat the proceeds it receives in the form of the Silent Contribution under the Participation
Agreement as solo Tier I capital (Kernkapital) for purposes of compliance with regulatory capital requirements. For more information
on the regulatory capital requirements applicable to Deutsche Hypothekenbank, see the section entitled "Regulation".
