This Prospectus may be used for subsequent offers by the Dealers and/or further financial
intermediaries only insofar if and for the period so specified in the Final Terms for the relevant
Tranche of Notes.
This Prospectus has been prepared on the basis that, except to the extent sub-paragraph (ii) below
may apply, any offer of Notes in any Member State of the European Economic Area which has
implemented the Prospectus Directive (each, a "Relevant Member State") will be made pursuant
to an exemption under the Prospectus Directive, as implemented in that Relevant Member State,
from the requirement to publish a prospectus for offers of Notes. Accordingly any person making or
intending to make an offer in that Relevant Member State of Notes which are the subject of an
offering or placement contemplated in this Prospectus as completed by Final Terms in relation to the
offer of those Notes may only do so (i) in circumstances in which no obligation arises for an Issuer, or
any Dealer to publish a prospectus pursuant to Article 3 of the Prospectus Directive or supplement a
prospectus pursuant to Article 16 of the Prospectus Directive, in each case, in relation to such offer,
or (ii) if a prospectus for such offer has been approved by the competent authority in that Relevant
Member State or, where appropriate, approved in another Relevant Member State and notified to the
competent authority in that Relevant Member State and (in either case) published, all in accordance
with the Prospectus Directive, provided that any such prospectus has subsequently been completed
by Final Terms which specify that offers may be made other than pursuant to Article 3(2) of the
Prospectus Directive in that Relevant Member State and such offer is made in the period beginning
and ending on the dates specified for such purpose in such Prospectus or Final Terms, as
applicable. Except to the extent sub-paragraph (ii) above may apply, none of the Issuers nor the
arranger as specified under "Summary Summary regarding the Notes Arranger" (the "Arranger")
nor any Dealer has authorised, nor do any of them authorise, the making of any offer of Notes in
circumstances in which an obligation arises for an Issuer or any Dealer to publish or supplement a
prospectus for such offer.
The legally binding language of this Prospectus is the English language; except for the Guarantee
and Negative Pledge where the German language shall be binding and except for the Terms and
Conditions of the Notes and the Final Terms for specific Tranches where the legally binding language
will be specified in the applicable Final Terms.
Neither the Prospectus nor any Final Terms may be used for the purpose of an offer or
solicitation by anyone in any jurisdiction in which such offer or solicitation is not authorised
or to any person to whom it is unlawful to make such an offer or solicitation.
Neither this Prospectus nor any Final Terms constitutes an offer or an invitation to subscribe
for or to purchase any Notes and should not be considered as a recommendation by the
relevant Issuer, the Arranger, any Dealer or any of them that any recipient of this Prospectus
or any Final Terms should subscribe for or purchase any Notes.
In connection with the issue of any Tranche of Notes, a Dealer or Dealers (if any) named as
stabilising manager(s) (the "Stabilising Manager(s)") (or persons acting on behalf of any
Stabilising Manager(s)) in the applicable Final Terms may over-allot Notes or effect
transactions with a view to supporting the market price of the Notes at a level higher than that
which might otherwise prevail. However, there is no assurance that the Stabilising Manager(s)
(or persons acting on behalf of a Stabilising Manager) will undertake stabilisation action. Any
stabilisation action may begin on or after the date on which adequate public disclosure of the
terms of the offer of the relevant Tranche of Notes is made and, if begun, may be ended at any
time, but it must end no later than the earlier of 30 days after the issue date of the relevant
Tranche of Notes and 60 days after the date of the allotment of the relevant Tranche of Notes.
Any stabilisation action or over-allotment must be conducted by the relevant Stabilising
Manager(s) (or person(s) acting on behalf of any Stabilising Manager(s)) in accordance with
all applicable laws and rules.
In this Prospectus all references to "", "EUR", "Euro", "euro" and "EURO" are to the single currency
of the member states of the European Union participating in the third stage of the European
Economic and Monetary Union.

SUMMARY
Summaries are made up of disclosure requirements known as 'Elements'. These elements are
numbered in Sections A E (A.1 E.7).
This Summary contains all the Elements required to be included in a summary for this type of
securities and Issuer. Because some Elements are not required to be addressed, there may be gaps

securities and Issuer, it is possible that no relevant information can be given regarding the Element.
In this case a short description of the Element is included in the summary with the mention of 'not

in
which
it
operates
The customer needs and expectations have changed significantly,
particularly as a result of digitization. They ask for intermodal
interlinked mobility and logistics services which can be conveniently
managed while on the go and in real time. At the same time,
demand is also growing for environmentally and socially sustainable
products.
Population growth is continuing from a global perspective.
Increasing numbers of people are moving to the cities in search of
work and prosperity. The demand for more efficient low-emissions
mobility and logistics solutions will increase as a result. This also
applies to Europe, even though birth rates are stagnant and the
population is ageing here. It is also intensifying the competition
among employers for talent.
The political environment is characterized by an increasing
acceptance of state regulation and at the same time a call for
increased competition and liberalization. Climate change is a central
issue here. Government debt levels are also continuing to rise in
many countries in the European Union (EU), limiting funds both for
investments in infrastructure and for grants for local transport. At the
same time, the European Commission's attempts at liberalization
are also aimed at achieving further quality improvements in the
traffic sector.
The structure of the global economy has been faced with rising
global risks since the 2008/2009 financial crisis. Flows of
commodities will be regionalized for many products with the ascent
of the emerging nations. This is also associated with changes in the
conditions for value creation in logistics which are strengthening as
a result of technical innovations and oil resources, which are
becoming more sparse over the long term. The decrease in
availability of crude oil will put increased pressure for innovation on
the mobility and logistics sector.
