| IMPORTANT CONSIDERATIONS |
|
Currencies and futures generally are volatile and are not suitable for all investors. Investment in foreign exchange related products is subject to many factors which contribute to or increase volatility, such as national debt levels and trade deficits, changes in domestic and foreign interest rates, and investors’ expectations concerning interest rates, currency exchange rates and global or regional political, economic or financial events and situations. The Funds will be successful only if significant losses are avoided. Please review the prospectus regarding specific break-even figures for the Funds.
The Funds are speculative and involve a high degree of risk. An investor may lose all or substantially all of an investment in the Funds.
Please see the prospectus for a full description of how the Funds invest and the master-feeder structure of the Funds.
The Funds are not mutual funds or any other type of Investment Company within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and are not subject to regulation thereunder.
Shares in the Funds are not FDIC insured, may lose value and have no bank guarantee.
This material must be accompanied or preceded by a prospectus. Please read the prospectus carefully before investing.

Index history for the Deutsche Bank Long USD Futures Index—Total Return™ (Symbol: DBUSDX) and the Deutsche Bank Short USD Futures Index— Total Return™ (Symbol: DBUSDXS), both of which consist of the Index plus 3-month United States Treasury securities returns, are displayed because the Funds collateralize futures positions with 3-month United States Treasury securities.
