Deutsche Bank Aktiengesellschaft
$1,000,000,000 Fixed to Fixed Reset Rate
Subordinated Tier 2 Notes due 2032
We, Deutsche Bank Aktiengesellschaft, acting through our New York Branch, are issuing $1,000,000,000 aggregate principal amount of fixed to
fixed reset rate subordinated Tier 2 notes, which we refer to as the "Subordinated Notes," due December 1, 2032, which we refer to as the "Maturity
Date." Subject to the imposition of a Resolution Measure (as defined herein) or any redemption prior to the Maturity Date in the limited circumstances
described herein, the Subordinated Notes will bear interest (i) from (and including) the date of issuance to (excluding) December 1, 2027, which we refer
to as the "Reset Rate", at a rate of 4.875% per year and (ii) from (and including) the Reset Date to (but excluding) the Maturity Date, at a rate per year
which will be 2.553% above the 5-year Swap Rate (which we define below). Interest on the Subordinated Notes will be payable semi-annually in arrears
on June 1 and December 1 of each year, commencing on June 1, 2018.
The Subordinated Notes constitute our direct, unconditional and unsecured obligations and are subordinated to (i) the claims of our creditors that are
not subordinated pursuant to applicable law, including claims against us under non-preferred senior unsecured debt instruments within the meaning of
Section 46f(6) sentence 1 of the German Banking Act (Kreditwesengesetz) or any successor provision and (ii) our other obligations which are mandatorily
preferred by law (we refer to such claims and obligations in (i) and (ii) as the "Priority Claims"). The Subordinated Notes will rank on parity among
themselves and on parity with all of our other subordinated claims (it being understood that no Priority Claims constitute subordinated claims), except as
otherwise provided by applicable law or the terms of any such other indebtedness, and in particular, they will rank in priority to the claims of the holders of
any of our subordinated indebtedness that by its express terms is stated to rank junior to the Subordinated Notes. In the event of any Resolution Measure
(which we define below) imposed on us or in the event of our insolvency or liquidation, the claims for interest, repayment and any other claims under the
Subordinated Notes will be subordinated to the claims of all other creditors which are not also subordinated and will, in any such event, only be satisfied
after all claims against us which are not subordinated have been satisfied in full. The ranking of our obligations will be as provided in the subordinated
indenture among us, Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee (which we refer to as the "Trustee"), and Deutsche Bank Trust Company
Americas, as paying agent, transfer agent and registrar and authenticating agent (which we refer to as the "agents").
The Subordinated Notes may be written down, be converted into ordinary shares or other instruments of ownership or become subject to
other Resolution Measures. You may lose part or all of your investment if any Resolution Measure becomes applicable to us. For more
information regarding the potential imposition of Resolution Measures by our competent resolution authority, please see "Description of the
Subordinated Notes--Resolution Measures" herein.
By your acquisition of the Subordinated Notes, you will be deemed irrevocably to have agreed, and you will agree:
·
to be bound by any Resolution Measure;
·
that you will have no claim or other right against us arising out of any Resolution Measure; and
·
that the imposition of any Resolution Measure will not constitute a default or an event of default (i) under the Subordinated Notes, (ii) under the
subordinated indenture or (iii) for the purpose, but only to the fullest extent permitted by, of the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, which
we refer to as the "Trust Indenture Act," (including, without limitation, Section 315(b) (Notice of Default) and Section 315(c) (Duties of the
Trustee in Case of Default) of the Trust Indenture Act).
By your acquisition of the Subordinated 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 agents for, agree not to initiate a suit against the Trustee or the agents in respect of, and agree that the Trustee and
agents will not be liable for, any action that the Trustee or any of the agents takes, or abstains from taking, in either case in accordance with the
imposition of a Resolution Measure by our competent resolution authority with respect to the Subordinated Notes.
Subject to the prior consent of our competent supervisory authority, we may redeem all, but not some, of the Subordinated Notes at our option at
100% of their principal amount (subject to the imposition of any Resolution Measure) plus accrued but unpaid interest (i) on the Reset Date, (ii) for certain
tax reasons or (iii) for certain regulatory reasons, as described further herein.
The Subordinated Notes will not be listed on any securities exchange.
Investing in the Subordinated Notes involves risks. See "Risk Factors" beginning on page PS-11 and as incorporated by reference herein
for a discussion of certain factors that you should consider.
Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or disapproved of these securities,
or determined if this prospectus supplement or the accompanying prospectus is truthful or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a
criminal offense.
The Subordinated Notes are not deposits or savings accounts but are our unsecured obligations. The Subordinated Notes are not insured
by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other U.S. or foreign governmental agency.

SUMMARY
The following summary describes the Subordinated Notes in general terms only. You should read the
summary together with the more detailed information contained in this prospectus supplement and the
accompanying prospectus.
We expect to issue the Subordinated Notes under a subordinated indenture (which we refer to as the
"Subordinated Indenture") comprising a base subordinated indenture (which we refer to as the "Base
Subordinated Indenture") entered into on May 21, 2013 among us, Wilmington Trust, National
Association, as trustee (which we refer to as the "Trustee"), and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas,
as initial principal paying agent, transfer agent and registrar and authenticating agent (which we refer to as
the "agents"), a third supplement to the Base Subordinated Indenture adding certain provisions thereto and
modifying certain provisions thereof (which we refer to as the "Third Supplemental Subordinated
Indenture") expected to be entered into on or about December 1, 2017, among us, the Trustee and the
agents, and a fourth supplement to the Base Subordinated Indenture relating to the Subordinated Notes
(which we refer to as the "Fourth Supplemental Subordinated Indenture") expected to be entered into
on or about December 1, 2017, among us, the Trustee and the agents. The Subordinated Notes will
constitute a separate series of subordinated debt securities under the Subordinated Indenture. We filed the
Base Subordinated Indenture on May 21, 2013 as an exhibit to a post-effective amendment to our prior
registration statement on Form F-3, File No. 333-184193, we have filed the form of the Third Supplemental
Subordinated Indenture with the SEC on November 28, 2017 as an exhibit to a Current Report on Form
6-K, and we intend to file the Third Supplemental Subordinated Indenture and the Fourth Supplemental
Subordinated Indenture with the SEC on or about December 1, 2017 as exhibits to a Current Report on
Form 6-K. The terms of the Subordinated Notes include those stated in the Subordinated Indenture and
those terms made part of the Subordinated Indenture by reference to the U.S. Trust Indenture Act of 1939,
as amended, which we refer to as the "Trust Indenture Act."

Express Transfer system (TARGET2) is open for business and
(ii) commercial banks and foreign exchange markets settle
payments and are open for general business (including dealing in

Ranking
The Subordinated Notes constitute our direct, unconditional and
unsecured obligations and are subordinated to (i) the claims of our
creditors that are not subordinated pursuant to applicable law,
including claims against us under non-preferred senior unsecured
debt instruments within the meaning of Section 46f(6) sentence 1
of the German Banking Act (Kreditwesengesetz) or any successor
provision and (ii) our other obligations which are mandatorily
preferred by law (we refer to such claims and obligations in (i) and
(ii) as the "Priority Claims"). The Subordinated Notes will rank on
parity among themselves and on parity with all of our other
subordinated claims (it being understood that no Priority Claims
constitute subordinated claims), except as otherwise provided by
applicable law or the terms of any such other indebtedness, and in
particular, they will rank in priority to the claims of the holders of
any of our subordinated indebtedness that by its express terms is
stated to rank junior to the Subordinated Notes. Any right to set off
any claims for interest, repayment and any other claims under the
Subordinated Notes, which we refer to as "Payment Claims,"
against claims of ours will be excluded (see "Description of the
Subordinated Notes--Waiver of Right to Set-Off"). In the event of
any Resolution Measure (which we define below) imposed on us
or in the event of our insolvency or liquidation, the Payment
Claims will be subordinated to the Priority Claims and will, in any
such event, only be satisfied after all Priority Claims have been
satisfied in full. No subsequent agreement may limit the
subordination pursuant to the provisions set out under
"Description of the Subordinated Notes--Status" or shorten the
term of the Subordinated Notes or any applicable notice period.
No collateral or guarantee will be provided at any time to secure
claims of the holders of the Subordinated Notes; any collateral or
guarantee already provided or granted in the future in connection
with our other liabilities may not be used for claims under the
Subordinated Notes.
Resolution Measures
Under the relevant resolution laws and regulations as applicable
to us from time to time, the Subordinated Notes may be subject to
the powers exercised by our competent resolution authority to:
·
write down, including write down to zero, the claims for
payment of the principal amount, the interest amount or any
other amount in respect of the Subordinated Notes;
·
convert the Subordinated Notes into ordinary shares of (i) the
Bank or (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
PS-5

Table of Contents
issue to or conferral on the holders (including the beneficial
owners) of such ordinary shares or instruments); and/or
·
apply any other resolution measure, including, but not limited
to, (i) any transfer of the Subordinated Notes to another entity,
(ii) the amendment, modification or variation of the terms and
conditions of the Subordinated Notes or (iii) the cancellation of
the Subordinated Notes.
We refer to each of these measures as a "Resolution Measure."
When we refer to a "group entity," we mean an entity that is
included in the corporate group subject to a Resolution Measure,
and when we refer to a "bridge bank," we mean 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. Resolution Measures include, among
others, the measures generally referred to within the meaning of
the "bail-in tool" under the European Union directive of May 15,
2014 establishing a framework for the recovery and resolution of
credit institutions and investment firms. For the avoidance of
doubt, any non-payment by us arising out of any such Resolution
Measure will not constitute a failure by us under the terms of the
Subordinated Notes or under the Subordinated Indenture to make
a payment of principal of, interest on, or other amounts owing
under the Subordinated Notes.
Deemed Agreement to Resolution Measures
By your acquisition of the Subordinated Notes, you will be deemed irrevocably to have agreed, and you will
agree:
·
to be bound by any Resolution Measure;
·
that you will have no claim or other right against us arising out
of any Resolution Measure; and
·
that the imposition of any Resolution Measure will not
constitute a default or an event of default (i) under the
Subordinated Notes, (ii) under the Subordinated Indenture or
(iii) for the purpose of, but only to the fullest extent permitted
by, the Trust Indenture Act (including, without limitation,
Section 315(b) (Notice of Default) and Section 315(c) (Duties
of the Trustee in Case of Default) of the Trust Indenture Act).
By your acquisition of the Subordinated 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 agents for,
agree not to initiate a suit against the Trustee or the agents in
respect of, and agree that the Trustee and agents will not be liable
for, any action that the Trustee or any of the agents takes, or
abstains from taking, in either case in accordance with the
imposition of a Resolution Measure by our competent resolution
authority with respect to the Subordinated Notes.
By your acquisition of the Subordinated Notes, you will be deemed
irrevocably to have (i) consented to the imposition
