The Regular Trustees and the Property Trustee of Deutsche Bank Capital Funding Trust VIII have been notified that on 18 April 2015, Deutsche Bank AG will redeem its Initial Debt Securities and Deutsche Bank Capital Funding LLC VIII will redeem its Class B Preferred Securities. We therefore hereby give notice that subject to receipt of the Redemption Price in full by the Property Trustee, the 24,000,000 6.375% Noncumulative Trust Preferred Securities, issued by Deutsche Bank Capital Funding Trust VIII on 18 October 2006, will be redeemed on 18 April 2015 at their liquidation preference amount of USD 25 per Trust Preferred Security, plus any accrued and unpaid Capital Payments for the current Payment Period to but excluding the redemption date. All regulatory preconditions are met. ____________ This security is possibly subject to an early call as a result of the occurrence of a Regulatory Event (see prospectus for further information) stemming from the provisions of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act which no longer allows the company to include the funds originating from this security as Tier 1 capital on their balance sheet.
