In a hearing on April 26, 2024, the Higher Regional Court of Cologne
assessed the claims of certain former Postbank shareholders that a higher
offer price in connection with Deutsche Bank's voluntary takeover offer of
October 7, 2010, should have been paid. During the hearing, the Court
indicated that it may find elements of these claims valid in a later ruling.

While Deutsche Bank continues to disagree stronglywith this assessment, the
court's statements will impact Deutsche Bank's estimation of the probability
of a future outflow, resulting in a legal provision in the second quarter of
2024. This provision will impact Deutsche Bank's second quarter and
full-year profitability and capital ratios.The estimate of the full amount
of all claims, including cumulative interest, is approximately 1.3 billion
euros.

On a pro forma basisas of March 31, 2024, the impact of the full provision
on the bank's Common Equity Tier 1 (CET1) ratio is estimated to be
approximately 20 basis points, with a resulting pro-forma CET1 ratioof
13.25%. On the same basis, the Leverage Ratio would be 4.42% as of March 31,
2024.

Given the complexity of the legal issues and recency of the court's
statements, Deutsche Bank's management will continue its analysis of the
legal arguments and the potential financial statement impact. Generally,
management does not expect a significant impact on the bank's strategic
plans or financial targets.
