Deutsche
Bank Aktiengesellschaft, a stock corporation (Aktiengesellschaft) organized under the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany,
if so specified, acting through the office specified on the front page of this Note, (together with its successors and assigns,
the “Issuer”), for value received, hereby promises to pay to Cede & Co., or registered assignees, the amount
of cash due with respect to the principal sum specified above on the Maturity Date specified above (except to the extent previously
redeemed) and to pay interest thereon from the Interest Accrual Date specified above at a rate per annum equal to the Initial
Interest Rate specified above until the Initial Interest Reset Date specified above, and thereafter at a rate per annum determined
in accordance with the provisions specified on the reverse hereof until the principal hereof is paid or duly made available for
payment.


 


The
Issuer will pay interest in arrears weekly, monthly, quarterly, semi-annually or annually as specified above as the Interest Payment
Period on each Interest Payment Date (as specified above), commencing on the first Interest Payment Date next succeeding the Interest
Accrual Date specified above, and on the Maturity Date (or on any redemption date); provided, however, that if the
Interest Accrual Date occurs between a Record Date, as defined below, and the next succeeding Interest Payment Date, interest
payments will commence on the second Interest Payment Date succeeding the Interest Accrual Date to the registered Holder of this
Note on the Record Date with respect to such second Interest Payment Date; and provided, further, that if an Interest
Payment Date (other than the Maturity Date or a redemption date) would fall on a day that is not a Business Day, as defined on
the reverse hereof, such Interest Payment Date shall be the following day that is a Business Day, except that if the Base Rate
specified above is EONIA, LIBOR or EURIBOR and such next Business Day falls in the next calendar month, such Interest Payment
Date shall be the immediately preceding day that is a Business Day; and provided, further, that if the Maturity
Date or redemption date would fall on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the following day that is
a Business Day and no interest shall accrue for the period from and after such Maturity Date or redemption date; and provided,
further, that if an Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date or redemption date would fall on a day that is not a Business
Day, payment of interest, premium, if any, or principal otherwise payable on such date need not be made on such date, but may
be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on the scheduled Interest Payment Date or
on the scheduled Maturity Date or redemption date.


 


Interest
on this Note will accrue from, and including, the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided
for, or, if no interest has been paid or duly provided for, from and including, the Interest Accrual Date, to, but excluding the
next Interest Payment Date or the date the amount due with respect to the principal hereof has been


 




    3 


     


    

paid
or duly made available for payment (except as provided below). The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for,
on any Interest Payment Date will, subject to certain exceptions described herein, be paid to the person in whose name this Note
(or one or more predecessor Notes) is registered at the close of business on the date that is one New York Banking Day immediately
preceding the relevant date of payment with respect to such Interest Payment Date (each such date, a “Record Date”);
provided, however, that any interest payable at maturity (or on any redemption date) will be payable to the person to whom
the amount due with respect to the principal hereof shall be payable.


 


Payment
of the amount due with respect to the principal, premium, if any, and any interest due on this Note will be made by wire transfer
of immediately available funds at the office or agency of the Paying Agent (as defined on the reverse hereof), maintained for
that purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, or at such other paying agency as the Issuer may determine, in

supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and
immunities of the Issuer, the Trustee and Holders of the Notes and the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be,

any additional or successor Paying Agent appointed by the Issuer) with respect to the Notes. The Issuer has appointed DBTCA
as the authenticating agent (the “Authenticating Agent,” which term includes any additional or successor
Authenticating Agent appointed by the Issuer) to act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate the Notes. The terms of
individual Notes may vary with respect to interest rates, interest rate formulas, issue dates, maturity dates, or otherwise,
all as provided in the Indenture. To the extent not inconsistent herewith, the terms of the Indenture are hereby incorporated
by reference herein.


 


This
Note will not be subject to any sinking fund. Unless otherwise indicated on the face hereof, this Note will not be redeemable
prior to maturity.


 


If
so indicated on the face hereof, this Note may be redeemed in whole or in part at the option of the Issuer on or after the Initial
Redemption Date specified on the face hereof or on the Redemption Dates specified on the face hereof on the terms set forth on
the face hereof, together with interest accrued and unpaid hereon to the date of redemption. Any redemption of this Note prior
to its stated maturity shall be subject to (i) receipt by the Issuer of approval of the competent authority, and (ii) compliance

This
Note will bear interest at the rate determined in accordance with the applicable provisions below by reference to the Base Rate
shown on the face hereof based on the Index Maturity, if any, shown on the face hereof (i) plus or minus the Spread, if any, and/or
(ii) multiplied by the Spread Multiplier, if any, specified on the face hereof. Commencing with the Initial Interest Reset Date
specified on the face hereof, the rate at which interest on this Note is payable shall be reset as of each Interest Reset Date
specified on the face hereof (as used herein, the term “Interest Reset Date” shall include the Initial Interest
Reset Date). The determination of the rate of interest at which this Note will be reset on any Interest Reset Date shall be made
on the Interest Determination Date (as defined below) pertaining to such Interest Reset Dates; provided, however,
that the interest rate in effect for the period from the Interest Accrual Date to the Initial Interest Reset Date will be the
Initial Interest Rate. If any Interest Reset Date would otherwise be a day that is not a Business Day, such Interest Reset Date
shall be postponed to the next succeeding day that is a Business Day, except that if the Base Rate specified on the face hereof
is EONIA, EURIBOR or LIBOR and such Business Day is in the next succeeding calendar month, such Interest Reset Date shall be the
immediately preceding Business Day.

applicable Interest Reset Date, as such rate appears on Reuters page EONIA (or any other page as may replace Reuters page EONIA)
(“Reuters Page EONIA”) as of 7:00 p.m., Central European Time, on such Interest Determination Date.


 


The
following procedures shall be followed if EONIA cannot be determined as described above:


 


		(a)	If
                                         the Calculation Agent determines that EONIA has been permanently discontinued, the Calculation
                                         Agent will, in its sole discretion, select an alternative reference rate as a substitute
                                         interest rate for the Notes; provided that if the Calculation Agent determines
                                         that there is an industry accepted successor interest rate for EONIA, the Calculation
                                         Agent shall use such successor interest rate as the substitute interest rate for the
                                         Notes. As part of any such substitution, the Calculation Agent may make adjustments to
                                         the terms of the Notes, including, but not limited to, the definition of the Base Rate
                                         (including the related fallback mechanism), the applicable Index Currency and/or Index
                                         Maturity for such alternative reference rate, the Spread or Spread Multiplier, as well
                                         as the business day convention, the definition of Business Day, Interest Determination
                                         Dates and related provisions and definitions, in each case consistent with accepted market
                                         practice for the use of such alternative reference rate for debt obligations such as
                                         the Notes.



 




    8 


     


    

		(b)	If
                                         the Calculation Agent has not selected an alternative reference rate as a substitute
                                         interest rate for the Notes as provided above, the following will apply:



 


		(i)	If
                                         the above rate does not appear on Reuters Page EONIA or is not so published by 7:00 p.m.,
                                         Central European Time, on the applicable Interest Determination Date, EONIA for such
                                         Interest Determination Date will be the rate calculated by the Calculation Agent as the
                                         arithmetic mean of at least two quotations obtained by the Calculation Agent after requesting
                                         the principal Euro-zone offices of four major banks in the Euro-zone interbank market,
                                         which may include the Issuer, as selected by the Calculation Agent, to provide the Calculation
                                         Agent with its offered quotation for interbank term deposits in euro for a period of
                                         one TARGET Settlement Day, commencing on the applicable Interest Reset Date, to prime
                                         banks in the Euro-zone interbank market at approximately 7:00 p.m., Central European
                                         Time, on the applicable Interest Determination Date and in a principal amount not less
                                         than the equivalent of U.S.$1,000,000 in euro that is representative for a single transaction
                                         in euro in such market at such time.



 


		(ii)	If
                                         fewer than two quotations are so provided, EONIA for such Interest Determination Date
                                         shall be calculated by the Calculation Agent and shall be the arithmetic mean of the
                                         rates quoted at approximately 7:00 p.m., Central European Time, on such Interest Determination
                                         Date by four major banks in the Euro-zone interbank market, as selected by the Calculation
                                         Agent, for loans in euro to leading European banks for a period of one TARGET Settlement
                                         Day, commencing on the applicable Interest Reset Date in a principal amount not less
                                         than the equivalent of U.S.$1,000,000 in euro that is representative for a single transaction
                                         in euro in such market at such time.



 


		(iii)	If
                                         the banks so selected by the Calculation Agent are not providing quotations as set forth
                                         above, then the Calculation Agent, after consulting such sources as it deems comparable
                                         to any of the foregoing quotations or display page, or any such source as it deems reasonable
                                         from which to estimate EONIA, will determine EONIA for that Interest Determination Date
                                         in its sole discretion.



 




    9 


     


    

Determination
of EURIBOR. If the Base Rate specified on the face hereof is “EURIBOR,” for any Interest Determination
Date, EURIBOR with respect to this Note shall be the rate for interbank term deposits in euro, as sponsored, calculated and published
jointly by the European Banking Federation and ACI — The Financial Market Association, or any company established by the
joint sponsors for purposes of compiling and publishing such rate, for the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof, commencing
on the applicable Interest Reset Date, as such rate appears on Reuters page EURIBOR01 (or any other page as may replace Reuters
page EURIBOR01) (“Reuters Page EURIBOR01”) as of 11:00 a.m., Central European Time, on such Interest Determination
Date.


 


The
following procedures shall be followed if EURIBOR cannot be determined as described above:


 


		(a)	If
                                         the Calculation Agent determines that EURIBOR with the Index Maturity specified on the
                                         face hereof has been permanently discontinued, the Calculation Agent will, in its sole
                                         discretion, select an alternative reference rate as a substitute interest rate for the
                                         Notes; provided that if the Calculation Agent determines that there is an industry
                                         accepted successor interest rate for the discontinued EURIBOR, the Calculation Agent
                                         shall use such successor interest rate as the substitute interest rate for the Notes.
                                         As part of any such substitution, the Calculation Agent may make adjustments to the terms
                                         of the Notes, including, but not limited to, the definition of the Base Rate (including
                                         the related fallback mechanism), the applicable Index Currency and/or Index Maturity
                                         for such alternative reference rate, the Spread or Spread Multiplier, as well as the
                                         business day convention, the definition of Business Day, Interest Determination Dates
                                         and related provisions and definitions, in each case consistent with accepted market
                                         practice for the use of such alternative reference rate for debt obligations such as
                                         the Notes.



 


		(b)	If
                                         the Calculation Agent has not selected an alternative reference rate as a substitute
                                         interest rate for the Notes as provided above, the following will apply:



 


		(i)	If
                                         the above rate does not appear on Reuters Page EURIBOR01 or is not so published by 11:00
                                         a.m., Central European Time, on the applicable Interest Determination Date, EURIBOR for
                                         such Interest Determination Date will be the rate calculated by the Calculation Agent
                                         as the arithmetic mean of at least two quotations obtained by the Calculation Agent after
                                         requesting the principal Euro-zone offices of four major banks in the Euro-zone interbank
                                         market, which may include the Issuer, as selected by the Calculation Agent, to provide
                                         the Calculation Agent with its offered quotation for interbank term deposits in euro
                                         for a period of time equivalent to the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof, commencing
                                         on the applicable Interest Reset Date, to prime banks in the Euro-zone interbank market
                                         at approximately 11:00 A.M., Central European Time, on the applicable Interest Determination
                                         Date and in a principal amount not less than the equivalent of U.S.$1,000,000 in euro
                                         that is representative for a single transaction in euro in such market at such time.

		(ii)	If
                                         fewer than two quotations are so provided, EURIBOR for such Interest Determination Date
                                         shall be calculated by the Calculation Agent and shall be the arithmetic mean of the
                                         rates quoted at approximately 11:00 a.m., Central European Time, on such Interest Determination
                                         Date by four major banks in the Euro-zone interbank market, as selected by the Calculation
                                         Agent, for loans in euro to leading European banks for a period of time equivalent to
                                         the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof commencing on the applicable Interest
                                         Reset Date in a principal amount not less than the equivalent of U.S.$1,000,000 in euro
                                         that is representative for a single transaction in euro in such market at such time.



 


		(iii)	If
                                         the banks so selected by the Calculation Agent are not providing quotations as set forth
                                         above, then the Calculation Agent, after consulting such sources as it deems comparable
                                         to any of the foregoing quotations or display page, or any such source as it deems reasonable
                                         from which to estimate EURIBOR with the relevant Index Maturity, will determine EURIBOR
                                         for that Interest Determination Date in its sole discretion.



 


Determination
of LIBOR. If the Base Rate specified on the face hereof is “LIBOR,” LIBOR with respect to this Note shall
be based on the London Interbank Offered Rate. The Calculation Agent shall determine LIBOR for each Interest Determination Date
as follows:


 


As
of the Interest Determination Date, LIBOR shall be the arithmetic mean of the offered rates appearing on Reuters page LIBOR01
(or any other page as may replace Reuters page LIBOR01) (“Reuters Page LIBOR01”) as of 11:00 a.m., London time,
on such Interest Determination Date, for deposits in the Index Currency having the Index Maturity designated on the face hereof,
commencing on the applicable Interest Reset Date, if at least two offered rates appear on Reuters Page LIBOR01; provided
that, if Reuters Page LIBOR01 by its terms provides only for a single rate, that single rate shall be used.


 


The following
procedures shall be followed if LIBOR cannot be determined as described above:


 


		(a)	If
                                         the Calculation Agent determines that LIBOR with the Index Currency and Index Maturity
                                         specified on the face hereof has been permanently discontinued, the Calculation Agent
                                         will, in its sole discretion, select an alternative reference rate as a substitute interest
                                         rate for the Notes; provided that, if the Calculation Agent determines that there
                                         is an industry accepted successor interest rate for the discontinued LIBOR, the Calculation
                                         Agent shall use such successor interest rate as the substitute interest rate for the
                                         Notes. As part of any such substitution, the Calculation Agent may make adjustments to
                                         the terms of the Notes, including, but not limited to, the definition of the Base Rate
                                         (including the related fallback mechanism), the applicable Index Currency and/or Index
                                         Maturity for such alternative reference rate, the Spread or Spread Multiplier, as well
                                         as the business day convention, the definition of Business Day, Interest Determination
                                         Dates and related provisions and definitions, in each case consistent with accepted market
                                         



 




    11 


     


    

practice
for the use of such alternative reference rate for debt obligations such as the Notes.


 


		(b)	If
                                         the Calculation Agent has not selected an alternative reference rate as a substitute
                                         interest rate for the Notes as provided above, the following will apply:



 


		(i)	If
                                         (I) fewer than two offered rates appear and Reuters Page LIBOR01 does not by its terms
                                         provide only for a single rate or (II) no rate appears and Reuters Page LIBOR01 by its
                                         terms provides only for a single rate, then the Calculation Agent shall request the principal
                                         London offices of each of four major reference banks (which may include the Issuer or
                                         its affiliates) in the London interbank market, as selected by the Calculation Agent,
                                         to provide the Calculation Agent with its offered quotation for deposits in the Index
                                         Currency for the period of the Index Maturity specified on the face hereof, commencing
                                         on the applicable Interest Reset Date immediately following the Interest Determination
                                         Date, to prime banks in the London interbank market at approximately 11:00 a.m., London
                                         time, on such Interest Determination Date and in a principal amount that is representative
                                         for a single transaction in the Index Currency in such market at such time. If at least
                                         two such quotations are so provided, LIBOR on such Interest Determination Date shall
                                         be the arithmetic mean of such quotations.



 


		(ii)	If
                                         fewer than two such quotations are so provided by the major reference banks, LIBOR on
                                         such Interest Determination Date shall the arithmetic mean of the rates quoted at approximately
                                         11:00 a.m., in the applicable principal financial center for the country of the Index
                                         Currency on that Interest Determination Date, by three major banks (which may include
                                         the Issuer or its affiliates) in such principal financial center selected by the Calculation
                                         Agent for loans in the Index Currency to leading European banks, having the Index Maturity
                                         specified on the face hereof and in a principal amount that is representative for a single
                                         transaction in the Index Currency in such market at such time.



 


		(iii)	If
                                         the banks so selected by the Calculation Agent are not providing quotations as set forth
                                         above, then the Calculation Agent, after consulting such sources as it deems comparable
                                         to any of the foregoing quotations or display page, or any such source as it deems reasonable
                                         from which to estimate LIBOR with the Index Currency and Index Maturity specified on
                                         the face hereof, will determine LIBOR for that Interest Determination Date in its sole
                                         discretion.



 


The
Calculation Agent shall calculate the interest rate hereon in accordance with the foregoing on or before each Calculation Date.
The interest rate on this Note will in no event be less than 0% per annum or higher than the maximum rate permitted by New York
law, as such maximum rate may be modified by United States Federal law of general application.


 


At
the request of the Holder hereof, the Calculation Agent will provide to the Holder hereof the interest rate hereon then in effect
and, if determined, the interest rate that will become


 




    12 


     


    

effective
as of the next Interest Reset Date.


 


Unless
otherwise indicated on the face hereof, interest payments on this Note shall be the amount of interest accrued from, and including,
the Interest Accrual Date or from, and including the last date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for to, but excluding,
the Interest Payment Dates or the Maturity Date (or any earlier redemption date), as the case may be. Accrued interest hereon
shall be an amount calculated by multiplying the Principal Amount hereof by an accrued interest factor. Such accrued interest
factor shall be computed by adding the interest factor calculated for each day in the period for which interest is being paid.
The interest factor for each such date shall be computed by dividing the interest rate applicable to such day (i) by 360 if the
Base Rate is EONIA, EURIBOR or LIBOR (if the Index Currency is not British pounds sterling), (ii) by 365 if the Base Rate is LIBOR
and the Index Currency is British pounds sterling or (iii) as otherwise specified on the face hereof. All percentages resulting
from any calculation of the rate of interest on this Note will be rounded, if necessary, to the nearest one hundred-thousandth
of a percentage point (with 0.000005% being rounded up to 0.00001%) and all dollar amounts used in or resulting from such calculation
on this Note will be rounded to the nearest cent, with one-half cent rounded upward. The interest rate in effect on any Interest
Reset Date will be the applicable rate as reset on such date. The interest rate applicable to any other day is the interest rate
from the immediately preceding Interest Reset Date (or, if none, the Initial Interest Rate).


 


The
Notes are intended to qualify as eligible liabilities instruments within the meaning of Articles 72a, 72b(2) of Regulation (EU)
No 575/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council, as amended, supplemented or replaced from time to time (the “CRR”),
with the exception of point (d), for the minimum requirement for own funds and eligible liabilities as applicable to the Issuer.


 


The obligations
under the Notes constitute unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of the Issuer and shall rank pari passu among themselves
and with all other unsecured and unsubordinated obligations of the Issuer, subject, however, to statutory priorities conferred
on certain unsecured and unsubordinated obligations in the event of any Resolution Measures imposed on the Issuer or in the event
of the dissolution, liquidation, insolvency or composition of the Issuer, or if other proceedings are opened for the avoidance
of the insolvency of, or against, the Issuer; in accordance with Section 46f(5) of the German Banking Act (Kreditwesengesetz),
the obligations of the Issuer under the Notes shall rank in priority to the Issuer’s obligations under debt instruments
(Schuldtitel) of the Issuer within the meaning of Section 46f(6) sentence 1 of the German Banking Act (Kreditwesengesetz)
(including the obligations under any such debt instruments that were issued by the Issuer before July 21, 2018 and that are subject
to Section 46f(9) of the German Banking Act (Kreditwesengesetz)) or any successor provision, this includes eligible liabilities
within the meaning of Articles 72a and 72b(2) CRR.


 


No
subsequent agreement may enhance the seniority of the Issuer’s obligations under the Notes or shorten the term of any of
the Notes or any applicable notice period. No Holder may set off its claims arising under the Notes against any claims of the
Issuer. No security or guarantee shall be provided at any time securing claims of the Holders under the Notes; any security or
guarantee already provided or granted in the future in connection with other liabilities of the Issuer may not be used for claims
under the Notes.


 




    13 


     


    

This
Note, and any Note or Notes issued upon transfer or exchange hereof, is issuable only in fully registered form, without coupons,
and unless otherwise specified above, is issuable only in denominations of U.S. $1,000 and any integral multiple of U.S. $1,000
in excess thereof.


 


If
“Office Substitution” is applicable to the Notes as specified on the face hereof, the Issuer may at any time, without
the consent of the Holders or the Trustee, designate another Office of the Issuer as substitute for the Office through which the
Issuer has acted to issue the Notes with the same effect as if such substitute Office had been originally named as the Office
through which the Issuer had acted to issue the Notes for all purposes under the Indenture and the Notes.  In order to give
effect to such substitution, the Issuer shall give notice of such substitution to the Trustee and the Holders of the Notes. 
With effect from the substitution date, such substitute Office shall, without any amendment to this Note or entry into any supplemental
indenture, assume all of the obligations of the originally-named Office as principal obligor under the Notes. “Office”
means the Issuer’s head office or one of the Issuer’s branch offices.


 


DBTCA
has been appointed Registrar for the Notes, and DBTCA will maintain at its office in The City of New York, a register for the
registration and transfer of Notes. This Note may be transferred at either the aforesaid New York office of DBTCA by surrendering
this Note for cancellation, accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Issuer, the Trustee and
the Authenticating Agent and duly executed by the registered Holder hereof in person or by the Holder’s attorney duly authorized
in writing, and thereupon the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and deliver in the name of the transferee
or transferees, in exchange herefor, a new Note or Notes having identical terms and provisions and having a like aggregate principal
amount in authorized denominations, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein; provided, however, that
neither the Trustee nor the Authenticating Agent will be required to (i) register the transfer of or exchange any Note that has
been called for redemption in whole or in part, except the unredeemed portion of Notes being redeemed in part or (ii) register
the transfer of or exchange Notes to the extent and during the period so provided in the Indenture with respect to the redemption
of Notes. Notes are exchangeable at said offices for other Notes of other authorized denominations of equal aggregate principal
amount having identical terms and provisions. All such registrations, exchanges and transfers of Notes will be free of service
charge, but the Issuer may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge in connection therewith.
All Notes surrendered for exchange shall be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Issuer,
the Trustee and the Authenticating Agent and executed by the registered Holder in person or by the Holder’s attorney duly
authorized in writing. The date of registration of any Note delivered upon any exchange or transfer of Notes shall be such that
no gain or loss of interest results from such exchange or transfer.


 


In
case this Note shall at any time become mutilated, defaced or be destroyed, lost or stolen and this Note or evidence of the loss,
theft or destruction thereof (together with the indemnity hereinafter referred to and such other documents or proof as may be
required in the premises) shall be delivered to the Trustee and the Authenticating Agent, the Issuer in its discretion may execute
a new Note of like tenor in exchange for this Note, but, in the case of any destroyed or lost or stolen Note, only upon receipt
of evidence satisfactory to the Trustee, the Authenticating Agent and the Issuer that this Note was destroyed or lost or stolen
and, if required, upon receipt also of indemnity satisfactory to each of them. All expenses and reasonable charges associated
with procuring such indemnity and with the preparation,


 




    14 


     


    

authentication
and delivery of a new Note shall be borne by the owner of the Note mutilated, defaced, destroyed, lost or stolen.


 


An
“Event of Default” with respect to this Note means the opening of insolvency proceedings against the Issuer
by a German court having jurisdiction over the Issuer. There are no other events of default under this Note. If an Event of Default
with respect to this Note occurs and is continuing, then, unless the principal of this Note shall have already become due and
payable, either the Trustee or the Holder of not less than 33 1⁄3% in aggregate principal amount of all outstanding debt
securities issued under the Indenture (treated as one class), by notice in writing to the Issuer (and to the Trustee if given
by Holders), may declare the principal amount of this Note and interest accrued thereon to be due and payable immediately in accordance
with the terms of the Indenture.


 


Subject
to Section 5.02 of the Indenture, the Indenture provides for no right of acceleration in the case of a default in the payment
of principal of, or interest on, or other amounts owing under this Note or a default in the performance of any other covenant
of the Issuer under this Note or the Indenture (any such default in payment or default in performance, a “default”).


 


If
an Event of Default or a default with respect to this Note occurs and is continuing, the Trustee, in its own name and as trustee
of an express trust, shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) to pursue any available remedy by proceedings at law
or in equity to collect any principal of and interest on this Note due and unpaid, or to enforce the performance of any provision
of this Note or the Indenture, and may prosecute any such action or proceedings to judgment or final decree, and may enforce any
such judgment or final decree against the Issuer or other obligor upon this Note and collect in the manner provided by law out
of the property of the Issuer or other obligor upon this Note, wherever situated, the monies adjudged or decreed to be payable.


 


If
the face hereof indicates that this Note is subject to “Tax Redemption,” subject to approval by the competent
authority, if then required under applicable law, capital adequacy guidelines, regulations or policies of such competent authority,
this Note may be redeemed, as a whole, at the option of the Issuer at any time prior to maturity, upon the giving of a Notice
of redemption as described below, at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount hereof, together with any accrued
interest to the date fixed for redemption, if the Issuer determines that, as a result of any change in or amendment to the laws,
or any regulations or rulings promulgated thereunder, of the Federal Republic of Germany, the United States, the jurisdiction
of residence or incorporation of any successor corporation to the Issuer, or the jurisdiction of any issuing branch (each, a “Relevant
Jurisdiction”), or of any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein affecting taxation, or any change
in official position regarding the application or interpretation of such laws, regulations or rulings, which change or amendment
becomes effective on or after the Trade Date hereof, the Issuer has or will become obligated to pay Additional Tax Amounts, as
defined below, with respect to this Note as described below. If this Note is redeemed by the Issuer without the approval of such
competent authority, if then legally required, then the amounts paid on this Note must be returned to the issuer irrespective
of any agreement to the contrary. Prior to the giving of any Notice of redemption pursuant to this paragraph, the Issuer shall
deliver to the Trustee (i) a certificate stating that the Issuer is entitled to effect such redemption and setting forth a statement
of facts


 




    15 


     


    

showing
that the conditions precedent to the right of the Issuer to so redeem have occurred, and


 


(ii)  
an opinion of independent legal counsel satisfactory to the Trustee to such effect based on such statement of facts; provided,
that no such Notice of redemption shall be given earlier than 60 calendar days prior to the earliest date on which the Issuer
would be obligated to pay such Additional Tax Amounts if a payment in respect of this Note were then due.


 


Notice
of redemption will be given not less than 30 nor more than 60 calendar days prior to the date fixed for redemption or within the
Redemption Notice Period specified on the face hereof, which date and the applicable redemption price will be specified in the
Notice.


 


All
interest amounts payable in respect of this Note shall be made without deduction or withholding for or on account of any present
or future taxes, duties or governmental charges of any nature whatsoever imposed or levied by way of deduction or withholding
by or on behalf of the Tax Jurisdiction (“Withholding Taxes”), unless such deduction or withholding is required
by law.


 


“Tax
Jurisdiction” means the Federal Republic of Germany or the United States, or any political subdivision or any authority
thereof or therein having power to tax.


 


In
the event of such withholding or deduction on payments of interest (but not in respect of the payment of any principal in respect
of this Note) and if (but only if) the face hereof indicates that this Note is subject to “Payment of Additional Tax
Amounts,” the Issuer shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, pay such additional tax amounts (“Additional
Tax Amounts”) as will be necessary in order that the net amounts received by the Holders, after such withholding or

                                         to any modification of the amount of interest payable, if any, to reflect the reduction
                                         of the principal amount, and any further modification of the terms that the competent
                                         resolution authority may decide in accordance with applicable laws and regulations relating

such

then applicable to the Issuer.

                                         with respect to the Issuer or this Note. To the extent not otherwise precluded by a Resolution
                                         Measure, the Issuer’s obligations to indemnify the Trustee and the Agents in accordance
                                         with Sections 7.02 and 7.06 of the Indenture shall survive the imposition of a Resolution
                                         Measure by the competent resolution authority with respect to the Issuer or this Note.



 


The
Indenture permits the Issuer and the Trustee, with the consent of the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal
amount of the debt securities of all series issued under the Indenture then outstanding and affected (voting as one class), to
execute supplemental indentures adding any provisions to or changing in any manner the rights of the Holders of each series so
affected; provided that the Issuer and the Trustee may not, without the consent of the Holder of each outstanding debt
security affected thereby, (a) extend the final maturity of any such debt security, or reduce the principal amount thereof, or
reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest thereon, or reduce any amount payable on redemption thereof, or change
the currency of payment thereof, or modify or amend the provisions for conversion of any currency into any other currency, or
impair or affect the rights of any Holder to institute suit for the payment thereof or (b) reduce the aforesaid percentage in
principal amount of debt securities the consent of the Holders of which is required for any such supplemental indenture. The Issuer
and the Trustee may, without the consent of the Holder of this Note, conform the terms of this Note to the description thereof
in the prospectus and prospectus supplements relating to the offering and sale of this Note.


 


So
long as this Note shall be outstanding, the Issuer will cause to be maintained an office or agency for the payment of the principal
of and premium, if any, and interest, if any, on this


 




    20 


     


    

Note
as herein provided in the United States, and an office or agency in the United States for the registration, transfer and exchange
as aforesaid of this Note. The Issuer may designate other agencies for the payment of said principal, premium and interest at
such place or places outside the United States (subject to applicable laws and regulations) as the Issuer may decide. So long
as there shall be such an agency, the Issuer shall keep the Trustee advised of the names and locations of such agencies, if any
are so designated.


 




    21 


     


    

With
respect to moneys paid by the Issuer and held by the Trustee or any Paying Agent for payment of the principal of or interest or
premium, if any, on any Notes that remain unclaimed at the end of two years after such principal, interest or premium shall have
become due and payable (whether at maturity or upon call for redemption or otherwise), (i) the Trustee or such Paying Agent shall
notify the Holders of such Notes that such moneys shall be repaid to the Issuer and any person claiming such moneys shall thereafter
look only to the Issuer for payment thereof and (ii) such moneys shall be so repaid to the Issuer. Upon such repayment all liability
of the Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such moneys shall thereupon cease, without, however, limiting in any way any
obligation that the Issuer may have to pay the principal of or interest or premium, if any, on this Note as the same shall become
due.


 


Subject
to the imposition of a Resolution Measure, no provision of this Note or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation
of the Issuer, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the amount of cash as determined in accordance with the provisions
set forth on the face of this Note due with respect to the principal of, premium, if any, and interest, if any, on this Note at
the time, place, and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed unless otherwise agreed between the Issuer and the registered
Holder of this Note.


 


Prior
to due presentment of this Note for registration of transfer, the Issuer, the Trustee and any agent of the Issuer or the Trustee
may treat the Holder in whose name this Note is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Note be overdue,
and none of the Issuer, the Trustee or any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.


 


No
recourse shall be had for the payment of the principal of, premium, if any, or the interest, if any, on this Note, for any claim
based hereon, or otherwise in respect hereof, or based on or in respect of the Indenture or any indenture supplemental thereto,
against any incorporator, shareholder, officer or director, as such, past, present or future, of the Issuer or of any successor
corporation, either directly or through the Issuer or any successor corporation, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute
or rule of law or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise, all such liability being, by the acceptance hereof
and as part of the consideration for the issue hereof, expressly waived and released.

Note shall be deemed to be a contract under the laws of the State of New York, and for all purposes shall be construed in accordance
with the laws of such State, except as may otherwise be required by mandatory provisions of law.
