Self Certification for Entity Clients
UK Automatic Exchange of Information and the OECD Common Reporting Standard
(CRS)
The UK Automatic Exchange of Information (commonly referred to as UK FATCA
or UK "AEoI") and the OECD Common Reporting Standard
(CRS) require Deutsche Bank AG and its affiliates (collectively "Deutsche
Bank") to collect and report certain tax related information about
its clients.
Please complete the sections below as directed and provide any additional
information as may be required. If the tax residence of an
Account Holder is located outside the country of the Deutsche Bank entity
requesting this form and also in a Reportable Jurisdiction then
the Account Holder will be a Reportable Jurisdiction Person and Deutsche
Bank is legally bound to report the relevant information on this
form to the appropriate tax authorities
A branch of an Entity is treated as an Entity for the purposes of the CRS
and the form should be completed with details for the branch, and
not that of its parent.
This form is for entities only. Do not complete this form for an Individual
Account Holder. Instead you should complete and provide the
Self Certification for Individual Clients which can be obtained from your
Deutsche Bank Relationship Manager.
If you have any remaining questions about how to complete this form or about
how to determine your tax residency status you should
contact your tax adviser or local tax authority. Deutsche Bank will not be
in a position to provide assistance beyond the information contained
within this guide as by law we are not permitted to give tax advice.

Appendix 1 Controlling Persons
Controlling Persons are defined as natural persons and exercise control over
the entity or the shareholders of the entity based on local AntiMoney
Laundering (AML) requirements. Where that entity is treated as a Passive Non
Financial Entity ("Passive NFE") then a Financial
Institution is required to determine whether or not these Controlling
Persons are Reportable Persons.
In the case of a Trust this means the settlor(s), the trustee(s), the
protector(s) (if any), the beneficiary(ies) or class(es) of beneficiaries,
and
any other natural person(s) exercising ultimate effective control over the
Trust (including through a chain of control or ownership). In the case
of a legal arrangement other than a Trust, it means persons in equivalent or
similar positions.
Please continue on a separate sheet if necessary, signing, dating and
attaching the sheet to this form.

Appendix 2 Instructions
Section A — General
1. UK CD/OT Intergovernmental Agreements (UK FATCA)
The Crown Dependencies (Isle of Man, Guernsey and Jersey) and the British
Overseas Territories (the Cayman Islands, the British Virgin
Islands, Bermuda, Anguilla, Turks and Caicos Islands, Montserrat and
Gibraltar) have all agreed to enter into automatic tax information
exchange agreements with the UK.
The agreements signed by the Crown Dependencies and Gibraltar with the UK
are reciprocal, meaning that UK Financial Institutions will
have to provide data on financial accounts held by tax residents of these
territories to HM Revenue & Customs (HMRC), who will then
exchange the information with the respective tax authorities. The UK has
implemented regulations and guidance to implement these
arrangements. Financial Institutions resident in the Crown Dependencies and
Gibraltar will be required to provide information on financial
accounts held by UK tax residents.
2. Common Reporting Standard (CRS)
On 20 July, 2013, the G20 leaders endorsed the OECD proposals for a global
model of automatic information exchange as the expected
new standard on information exchange. This directive was carried out on 13
February, 2014, when the OECD released the Common
Reporting Standard ("CRS") and model Competent Authority Agreement ("CAA").
On 15 July, 2014, the Council of the OECD published its
detailed commentary on both the CRS and Model CAA.
In order to promote adoption of the Common Reporting Standard within the
European Union, a revised Directive on Administrative
Cooperation ("DAC") was published on 09 December, 2014 requiring EU Member
States to begin the automatic exchange of information
under the revised DAC no later than end of September 2017, which will be in
line with other OECD "Earlier Adopter" countries. Per the DAC,
the deadline for Member States to adopt local legislation will be 31
December, 2015, with the revised DAC "go-live" date commencing on 01
January, 2016. As of 17 June, 2015, more than 90 countries and jurisdictions
have signed up for the CRS, including at least 50 who have
committed to be a part of the early adopter group, which phases in beginning
01 January, 2016. It is expected that more countries will opt to
implement the standard as the initial go-live date approaches.
CRS introduces requirements on top of other global and local implementation
programs (e.g. FATCA, EUSD, QI) aiming at a uniform global
standard of information exchange. Both the Model CAA and CRS each have a
foundation that is substantially similar to that of the FATCA
Intergovernmental Agreements (IGAs), with subtle differences imposed by the
OECD and influenced through local law. Just as with FATCA,
the CRS therefore impose obligations on Financial Institutions resident in
those territories to report information on financial accounts held by
foreign tax residents to the local tax authorities.
