Client(s) Strategy Requests. Please check as many of the following strategies ("Structured Products") as may apply. With all Structured Products, in the event of early liquidation, there may not be a liquid market, and the investor may experience a loss due to costs involved with unwinding the investment. Furthermore, investors are exposed to the credit risk of the issuing entity, which in the case of a default, may result in a significant, or total, loss to the investor. 1. Principal Protected Structured Notes and Certificates of Deposit-9096-100% Principal Protection which may result in lower returns than a direct investment in the underlying. Investor understands that principal is protected only if held to maturity and that FDIC insurance applies only to Market-Linked Certificates of Deposit up to the statutory limits. 2. Buffered Notes—Partial principal protection (usually protection from the first 1096-20% decline in the underlying) which serves as a buffer to loss. Investors participate in the downside, either on a 1- for-1 or leveraged basis, in the amount the underlying declines beyond the predetermined buffer level. Upside participation in the underlying may be leveraged and is sometimes capped. 3. Contingently Protected (including Reverse Convertible and Callable Yield) Notes—Full Principal Protection only if a pre-set barrier is not breached. If a barrier is breached, investors would lose the level of protection and participate in any decline in the underlying, if any, at maturity. Structures include but are not limited to those that pay investors a fixed coupon payment, participation in upside if the underlying performs positively, or EFTA01436013 both. The investor acknowledges that settlement at maturity may be in the form of cash or physical delivery of the underlying. 4. Market Participation Notes and Warrants—Zero principal protection. Full downside participation. MPNs may be linked to one or more underlyings in the form of a weighted basket or overlay and may be customized to offer straight 1 for 1, or varying degrees of upside participation, leverage or a fixed coupon. Investors in MPNs seek access to an underlying which is generally complex and which may be inaccessible to them in the market. DB and third party proprietary indices are typically used as an underlying. Warrants may be linked to hedge funds, mutual funds, basket of funds as well as individual stocks and may lose full value or all premium paid if the price of the underlying asset does not rise. The following representations are applicable for an individual account. If this is a joint, trust, partnership, limited liability company, corporate or other type of account, the word "I" in the following paragraphs shall mean each owner in the case of a joint account or the authorized signatory making representations on behalf of the trust, partnership, limited liability company or other entity in the case of such account type, as the case may be. I represent that the purchase of Structured Products is suitable for my account in light of my investment objectives and experience, financial situation and risk tolerance. I have made my own decision to utilize Structured Products for my account based upon my own judgment, adequate information I have independently obtained (from sources other than Deutsche Bank) regarding Structured Products and consultation with my own advisors to the extent I have deemed necessary as to the legal, regulatory, tax, business, financial, accounting and related aspects of my purchase of Structured Products. I understand that Structured Products may contain a derivative component in the form of one or more embedded options, and that such option(s) may have the result of reducing the gains or interest income, or increasing the losses (which may include a loss of principal) on the Structured Products, whether held to maturity or sold prior to maturity, to a greater extent than would be the case if the Structured Products did not contain such a derivative component. I also understand that Structured Products may lose their capital preservation features if sold prior to maturity. Finally, I understand the investment risks associated with Structured Products, including but not limited to issuer credit risk, market risk and liquidity risk. To the extent permitted by applicable law and rules, I authorize Deutsche Bank to acquire and dispose of Structured Products for my Account. I acknowledge and agree that when Structured Products are utilized for my account Deutsche Bank may (i) charge me fees in addition to the fees I pay Deutsche Bank for advice under any separate agreement and (ii) receive remuneration or compensation from the issuers of Structured Products or EFTA01436014 their affiliates and other sources, including the receipt of a commission or selling concession as set forth in the related prospectus or other offering document for each sale of a Structured Product for which Deutsche Bank acts as a distributor or sales agent. WM179078 SPAA DBSI 011017.083017 Page 3 of 5 EFTA01436015 I agree that I will read carefully any prospectus, term sheet and any other offering document (any such prospectus, term sheet or offering document, an "Offering Document") that I may receive in connection with the acquisition of any Structured Product for my Account, including disclosures in any such Offering Document describing the fees I may pay in connection with the Structured Product as well as representations and warranties that I will be deemed to have made in connection with the acquisition of the Structured Product.
