Notes will be subject to early redemption upon the occurrence of an event specified in the<br />

applicable Final Terms (early redemption event). In addition, each Issuer will always have the right<br />

to redeem the Notes if the Issuer is required to pay additional amounts (gross-up payments) on the<br />

Notes for reasons of taxation as set out in the Terms and Conditions. If the Issuer redeems the<br />

Notes prior to maturity or the Notes are subject to early redemption due to an early redemption<br />

event, a holder of such Notes is exposed to the risk that due to such early redemption his<br />

investment will have a lower than expected yield. The Issuer can be expected to exercise his<br />

optional call right if the yield on comparable Notes in the capital market has fallen which means<br />

that the investor may only be able to reinvest the redemption proceeds in comparable Notes with a<br />

lower yield. On the other hand, the Issuer can be expected not to exercise his optional call right if<br />

the yield on comparable Notes in the capital market has increased. In this event an investor will<br />

not be able to reinvest the redemption proceeds in comparable Notes with a higher yield. It should<br />

be noted, however, that the Issuer may exercise any optional call right irrespective of market<br />

interest rates on a call date. In the case of Structured Notes, the Final Terms may provide that<br />

Notes that are subject to an early redemption event or a redemption for tax reasons may be<br />

redeemed at an amount that may be less than the Specified Denomination per Note.<br />

Additional Risk Factors relating to Pfandbriefe<br />

The Terms and Conditions of the Notes which apply to Pfandbriefe will not contain any events of<br />

default and will not be issued with the benefit of an investor put option. Furthermore, in the event<br />

of the imposition of a withholding or deduction by way of tax on interest payments under the<br />

Pfandbriefe, no additional amounts will be paid to investors so that investors will receive interest<br />

payments net of such withholding or deduction.<br />

Pfandbriefe that meet the jumbo standard of the German Association of Pfandbrief Banks<br />

(Verband Deutscher Pfandbriefbanken) will only be issued in Euro, will always have a fixed term<br />

and will only be redeemed at the principal amount on the Maturity Date in accordance with the<br />

Terms and Conditions (the "Jumbo Pfandbriefe").<br />

Additional Risk Factors relating to Notes<br />

If the Final Terms provide that the Conditions may be amended by the Issuer with consent of the<br />

Holders by way of a majority resolution in a Holders Meeting or by a vote not requiring a physical<br />

meeting (Abstimmung ohne Versammlung) as described in Sections 5 et seq. German Act on<br />

Issues of Debt Securities (Gesetz über Schuldverschreibungen aus Gesamtemissionen,<br />

"SchVG"), the Issuer may subsequently amend the Conditions with the consent of the majority of<br />

Holders specified in the Final Terms, which amendment will be binding on all Holders of the<br />

relevant Series of Notes even if they may have voted against the change.<br />

Therefore, a Holder is subject to the risk of being outvoted by a majority resolution of the Holders.<br />

As such majority resolution is binding on all Holders of a particular Series of Notes, certain rights<br />

of such Holder against the Issuer under the Conditions may be amended or reduced or even<br />

cancelled, which may have significant negative effects on the value of the Notes and the return<br />

from the Notes.<br />

If the Final Terms provide for the appointment of a Holders' joint representative, either in the<br />

Conditions or by a majority resolution of the Holders, a Holder may be deprived of its individual<br />

right to pursue and enforce a part or all of its rights under the Conditions against the Issuer, such<br />

right passing to the Holders' joint representative who is then exclusively responsible to claim and<br />

enforce the rights of all the Holders.<br />
