This document constitutes a base prospectus for the purposes of Article. 8(1) of Regulation (EU) 2017/1129 of the
European Parliament and of the Council of June 14, 2017 (the "Prospectus Regulation") relating to issues of
non-equity securities ("Non-Equity Securities") within the meaning of Article 2(c) of the Prospectus Regulation
under the Programme (as defined below) by Deutsche Wohnen SE.

Deutsche Wohnen SE
(incorporated in Germany as a European stock corporation)
10,000,000,000 Debt Issuance Programme
Under this base prospectus (together with any documents incorporated by reference therein, the "Base
Prospectus") Deutsche Wohnen SE, Berlin, Germany (the "Issuer" or the "Company", and together with its fully
consolidated subsidiaries from time to time, the "Group", "Deutsche Wohnen" or "Deutsche Wohnen Group"),
subject to compliance with all relevant laws, regulations and directives, may from time to time issue unsubordinated
bearer notes in a minimum denomination of 100,000.00 per Note (together the "Notes"). The aggregate principal
amount of Notes issued under the Debt Issuance Programme described in this Base Prospectus (the "Programme")
outstanding will not at any time exceed 10,000,000,000 (or the equivalent in other currencies).
The principal amount of the Notes, the issue currency, the interest payable in respect of the Notes, the issue
prices and maturities of the Notes and all other terms and conditions which are applicable to a particular Series and, if
applicable, Tranche of Notes (each term as defined below, see "1 General description of the Programme") will be set
out in the document containing the final terms (each "Final Terms") within the meaning of Article 8(4) of the Prospectus
Regulation.
The Notes have not been and will not be registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
"Securities Act") and are being offered and sold in transactions outside the United States of America ("United States")
to non-U.S. persons (as defined in Regulation S under the Securities Act ("Regulation S")) in reliance on Regulation S
under the Securities Act.
Prospective investors should be aware that an investment in the Notes involves risks and that if certain
risks, in particular those described under "Risk Factors", occur, the investors may lose all or a very
substantial part of their investment.
Investors should make their own assessment as to the suitability of investing in the Notes.
This Base Prospectus has been approved by the Luxembourg Commission de Surveillance du Secteur Financier
(the "CSSF") as competent authority under the Prospectus Regulation. The CSSF only approves this Base Prospectus
as meeting the standards of completeness, comprehensibility and consistency imposed by the Prospectus Regulation.
Such approval should not be considered as an endorsement of the Issuer or of the quality of the Notes that are the subject
of this Base Prospectus. By approving a prospectus, the CSSF shall give no undertaking as to the economic and financial
soundness of the operation or the quality or solvency of the Issuer pursuant to Article 6 para. 4 of the Loi relative aux
prospectus pour valeurs mobiličres.
Application has been made to the Luxembourg Stock Exchange for Notes issued under the Programme to be
listed on the official list of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange (Bourse de Luxembourg) and to be admitted to trading on
the regulated market of the Luxembourg Stock Exchange (Bourse de Luxembourg). The regulated market of the
Luxembourg Stock Exchange (Bourse de Luxembourg) is a regulated market for the purposes of Directive 2014/65/EU
of the European Parliament and of the Council of May 15, 2014 on markets in financial instruments, as amended.
However, Notes may be listed on any other stock exchange or may be unlisted as specified in the relevant Final Terms.

(the "Terms and Conditions") is English. Deutsche Wohnen SE's consolidated financial statements as
of and for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, referred to in the section "11 Documents
Incorporated By Reference" are translations of the German-language consolidated financial statements.
The independent auditor's reports referred to in the section "11 Documents Incorporated By

German-language combined management reports and consolidated financial statements and refer to the
combined management reports and consolidated financial statements as a whole. The binding language
of the terms and conditions of each Series of Notes will be specified in the respective Final Terms.
Where a claim relating to the information contained in this Base Prospectus and any supplement
thereto is brought before a court, the plaintiff investor might, under national law, have to bear the costs
of translating the Base Prospectus and any supplement hereto before the legal proceedings are initiated.

their respective dates of publications.
The information on any website referred to in this Base Prospectus does not form part of the
Base Prospectus and has not been scrutinized or approved by the CSSF unless that information is
incorporated by reference into the Base Prospectus.
MIFID II product governance / Professional investors and ECPs only target market
The Final Terms in respect of any Notes may include a legend entitled "MiFID II Product
Governance" which will outline the target market assessment in respect of the Notes and which channels
for distribution of the Notes are appropriate. Any person subsequently offering, selling or
recommending the Notes (a "distributor") should take into consideration the target market assessment;
however, a distributor subject to Directive 2014/65/EU (as amended, "MiFID II") is responsible for

-ii-




undertaking its own target market assessment in respect of the Notes (by either adopting or refining the
target market assessment) and determining appropriate distribution channels.
A determination will be made in relation to each issue about whether, for the purpose of the
MiFID Product Governance rules under EU Delegated Directive 2017/593 (the "MiFID Product
Governance Rules"), any Dealer subscribing for any Notes is a manufacturer in respect of such Notes,
but otherwise neither the Arranger nor the Dealers nor any of their respective affiliates will be a
manufacturer for the purpose of the MiFID Product Governance Rules.
UK MiFIR product governance / Target market
The Final Terms in respect of any Notes may include a legend entitled "UK MiFIR Product
Governance" which will outline the target market assessment in respect of the Notes and which channels
for distribution of the Notes are appropriate. Any person subsequently offering, selling or
recommending the Notes (a "distributor") should take into consideration the target market assessment;
however, a distributor subject to the FCA Handbook Product Intervention and Product Governance
Sourcebook (the "UK MiFIR Product Governance Rules") is responsible for undertaking its own
target market assessment in respect of the Notes (by either adopting or refining the target market
assessment) and determining appropriate distribution channels.
A determination will be made in relation to each issue about whether, for the purpose of the
UK MiFIR Product Governance Rules, any Dealer subscribing for any Notes is a manufacturer in
respect of such Notes, but otherwise neither the Arranger nor the Dealers nor any of their respective
affiliates will be a manufacturer for the purpose of the UK MIFIR Product Governance Rules.
PRIIPs Regulation / Prohibition of sales to EEA retail investors
If the Final Terms in respect of any Notes include a legend entitled "Prohibition of Sales to EEA Retail
Investors", the Notes are not intended to be offered, sold or otherwise made available to and should not
be offered, sold or otherwise made available to any retail investor in the European Economic Area
("EEA"). For these purposes, a retail investor means a person who is one (or more) of: (i) a retail client
as defined in point (11) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II; or (ii) a customer within the meaning of Directive
(EU) 2016/97 (as amended, the "Insurance Distribution Directive"), where that customer would not
qualify as a professional client as defined in point (10) of Article 4(1) of MiFID II. Consequently, where
such a Prohibition of Sales to EEA Retail Investors is included in the Final Terms, no key information
document required by Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014 (as amended, the "PRIIPs Regulation") for
offering or selling the Notes or otherwise making them available to retail investors in the EEA has been
prepared and therefore offering or selling such Notes or otherwise making them available to any retail
investor in the EEA may be unlawful under the PRIIPs Regulation.
This Base Prospectus contains assessments of market data and information derived therefrom
which could not be obtained from any independent sources. Such information is based on the Issuer's
own internal assessments and may therefore deviate from the assessments of competitors of Deutsche
Wohnen or future statistics by independent sources. As regards the market positions of Deutsche
Wohnen, Deutsche Wohnen's own estimations are mainly based on company data which is either
derived from information by competitors or from data provided by independent research companies.
UK PRIIPs Regulation / Prohibition of sales to UK retail investors
If the Final Terms in respect of any Notes include a legend entitled "Prohibition of Sales to UK
Retail Investors", the Notes are not intended to be offered, sold or otherwise made available to and
should not be offered, sold or otherwise made available to any retail investor in the United Kingdom
("UK"). For the purposes of this provision the expression "retail investor" means a person who is one
(or more) of the following: (i) a retail client, as defined in point (8) of Article 2 of Regulation (EU)
No 2017/565 as it forms part of domestic law by virtue of the European Union (Withdrawal) Act 2018
("EUWA"); or (ii) a customer within the meaning of the provisions of the Financial Services and
Markets Act 2000 (the "FSMA") and any rules or regulations made under the FSMA to implement
Directive (EU) 2016/97, where that customer would not qualify as a professional client, as defined in
point (8) of Article 2(1) of Regulation (EU) No 600/2014 as it forms part of domestic law by virtue of

-iii-




the EUWA. Where such a Prohibition of Sales to UK Retail Investors is included in the Final Terms,
no key information document required by Regulation (EU) No 1286/2014 as it forms part of domestic
law by virtue of the EUWA (the "UK PRIIPs Regulation") for offering or selling the Notes or
otherwise making them available to retail investors in the UK has been prepared and therefore offering
or selling the Notes or otherwise making them available to any retail investor in the UK may be unlawful
under the UK PRIIPs Regulation.
Canadian Investors
The Notes may be sold only to purchasers purchasing, or deemed to be purchasing, as principal
that are accredited investors, as defined in National Instrument 45-106 Prospectus Exemptions or
subsection 73.3(1) of the Securities Act (Ontario), and are permitted clients, as defined in National
Instrument 31-103 Registration Requirements, Exemptions and Ongoing Registrant Obligations. Any
resale of the Notes must be made in accordance with an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject
to, the prospectus requirements of applicable securities laws.
Securities legislation in certain provinces or territories of Canada may provide a purchaser with
remedies for rescission or damages if this Base Prospectus (including any amendment thereto) contains
a misrepresentation, provided that the remedies for rescission or damages are exercised by the purchaser
within the time limit prescribed by the securities legislation of the purchaser's province or territory. The
purchaser should refer to any applicable provisions of the securities legislation of the purchaser's
province or territory for particulars of these rights or consult with a legal advisor.
If applicable, pursuant to section 3A.3 (or, in the case of securities issued or guaranteed by the
government of a non-Canadian jurisdiction, section 3A.4) of National Instrument 33-105 Underwriting
Conflicts (NI 33-105), the Dealers are not required to comply with the disclosure requirements of NI
33-105 regarding underwriter conflicts of interest in connection with any such offering.
Notification under Section 309B(1) of the Securities and Futures Act (Chapter 289) of Singapore
(the "SFA")
Unless otherwise stated in the Final Terms in respect of any Notes, all Notes issued or to be
issued under the Programme shall be prescribed capital markets products (as defined in the Securities
and Futures (Capital Markets Products) Regulations 2018) and Excluded Investment Products (as
defined in the Monetary Authority of Singapore (the "MAS") Notice SFA 04-N12: Notice on the Sale
of Investment Products and MAS Notice FAA-N16: Notice on Recommendations on Investment
Products).
BENCHMARK REGULATION / STATEMENT IN RELATION TO ADMINISTRATOR'S
REGISTRATION
Interest amounts payable under floating rate notes issued under this Programme are calculated
by reference to the EURIBOR (Euro Interbank Offered Rate) which is provided by the European Money
Markets Institute (EMMI). As at the date of this Base Prospectus, EMMI appears on the register of
administrators and benchmarks established and maintained by the European Securities and Markets
Authority (ESMA) pursuant to Article 36 of the Regulation (EU) 2016/1011 of the European Parliament
and of the Council of 8 June 2016, as amended (the "Benchmark Regulation").
STABILISATION
In connection with the issue of any Tranche (as defined in "1 General Description of the
Programme") of Notes under the Programme, the Dealer or Dealers (if any) named as stabilising
manager(s) in the applicable Final Terms (or persons acting on behalf of a stabilising manager) may
over-allot Notes or effect transactions with a view to supporting the price of the Notes at a level higher
than that which might otherwise prevail. However, stabilisation may not necessarily occur. 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 cease at any time, but it must end

-iv-




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.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This Base Prospectus contains certain forward-looking statements. A forward-looking
statement is a statement that does not relate to historical facts and events. They are based on analyses
or forecasts of future results and estimates of amounts not yet determinable or foreseeable. These
forward-looking statements are identified by the use of terms and phrases such as "anticipates",
"believes", "estimates", "expects", "intends", "may, ""plans", "predicts", "projects", "targets" and
similar terms and phrases, including references and assumptions. This applies, in particular, to
statements in this Base Prospectus containing information on future earning capacity, plans and
expectations regarding Deutsche Wohnen's business and management, its growth and profitability, and
general economic and regulatory conditions and other factors that affect it.
Forward-looking statements in this Base Prospectus are based on current estimates and
assumptions that the Issuer makes to the best of its present knowledge. These forward-looking
statements are subject to risks, uncertainties and other factors which could cause actual results,
including Deutsche Wohnen's financial condition and results of operations, to differ materially from
and be worse than results that have expressly or implicitly been assumed or described in these forward-
looking statements. Deutsche Wohnen's business is also subject to a number of risks and uncertainties
that could cause actual developments to differ from the forward-looking statements, estimates or
predictions in this Base Prospectus. Accordingly, investors are strongly advised to read the sections
"2 Risk Factors" and "6 Description of the Issuer" as well as the information on the Deutsche Wohnen
Group incorporated by reference herein as described in the section "11 Documents Incorporated By
Reference", because these include more detailed descriptions of factors that might have an impact on
Deutsche Wohnen's business and the markets in which it operates. In light of these risks, uncertainties
and assumptions, future events described in this Base Prospectus may not occur. In addition, neither the
Issuer nor the Dealers assume any obligation, except as required by law, to update any forward-looking
statement or to conform these forward-looking statements to actual events or developments.
SOURCES OF MARKET DATA
To the extent not otherwise indicated, the information contained in this Base Prospectus on the
market environment, market developments, growth rates, market trends and competition in the markets
in which Deutsche Wohnen operates are based on the Issuer's assessments. These assessments, in turn,
are based in part on internal observations of the market and on various market studies.
Irrespective of the assumption of responsibility for the content of this Base Prospectus by the
Issuer, the Issuer has not independently verified the figures, market data or other information on which
third parties have based their studies. Accordingly, the Issuer makes no representation or warranty as
to the accuracy of any such information from third-party studies included or incorporated by reference
in this Base Prospectus. Prospective investors should note that the Issuer's own estimates and statements
of opinion and belief are not always based on studies of third parties.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF THE PROGRAMME
1.1
General
Under the Programme , Deutsche Wohnen, subject to compliance with all relevant laws,
regulations and directives, may from time to time issue Notes to one or more of the following Dealers:
BNP Paribas, Deutsche Bank Aktiengesellschaft , Goldman Sachs Bank Europe SE, J.P. Morgan AG,
UBS AG, London Branch and UniCredit Bank AG and any additional Dealer appointed under the
Programme from time to time by the Issuer which appointment may be for a specific issue or on an
ongoing basis (together, the "Dealers").
Deutsche Bank Aktiengesellschaft, Frankfurt am Main, Federal Republic of Germany]
("Deutsche Bank") is acting as arranger in respect of the Programme (the "Arranger").
Deutsche Bank will also act as fiscal agent (the "Fiscal Agent") and paying agent (the "Paying
Agent").
The aggregate principal amount of the Notes outstanding at any one time under the Programme
will not exceed 10,000,000,000 (or its equivalent in any other currency) (the "Programme Amount").
The Issuer may increase the Programme Amount in accordance with the terms of the Dealer Agreement
(as defined herein) from time to time.
1.2
Prospectus
Notes issued under the Programme may be issued either: (1) pursuant to this Base Prospectus
and associated Final Terms; or (2) pursuant to a Specific Prospectus (as defined below); or (3) in relation
to Notes not admitted to trading on a regulated market of any member state of the EEA, in such form as
agreed between the Issuer, the relevant Dealer(s) and, if relevant for the Fiscal Agent, the Fiscal Agent.
"Specific Prospectus" means any prospectus prepared by the Issuer in relation to Notes issued
under the Programme and having terms not contemplated by this Base Prospectus as Option I or
Option II, which may incorporate by reference certain parts of this Base Prospectus and which
constitutes a prospectus for the purposes of Article 6 para. 3 of the Prospectus Regulation, including any
documents which are from time to time incorporated by reference in the Specific Prospectus, as such
Specific Prospectus is amended, supplemented or replaced from time to time.
1.3
Issue of Notes
Notes may be issued on a continuing basis to one or more of the Dealers.
The Notes issued under this Base Prospectus will be issued as fixed rate (the "Fixed Rate
Notes") or floating rate notes (the "Floating Rate Notes").
Notes will be issued in series (each a "Series") having one or more issue dates and on terms
otherwise identical (or identical other than in respect of the first payment of interest), the Notes of each
Series being intended to be interchangeable with all other Notes of that Series. Each Series may be issued
in tranches (each a "Tranche") on the same or different issue dates. The specific terms of each Tranche
(which will be completed, where necessary, with the relevant Terms and Conditions and, save in respect
of the issue date, issue price, first payment of interest and nominal amount of the Tranche, will be
identical to the terms of other Tranches of the same Series) will be completed in the Final Terms.
Notes of any Tranche may be issued at a price (the "Issue Price") equal to their principal amount
or at a discount or premium to their principal amount. The Issue Price for the Notes of any Tranche
issued on a syndicated basis will be determined at the time of pricing on the basis of a yield which will
be determined on the basis of the orders of the investors which are received by the Dealers during the
placement of such Notes. Orders will specify a minimum yield and may only be confirmed at or above
such yield. The resulting yield will be used to determine the Issue Price.
