The PowerShares DB G10 Currency Harvest Fund seeks to track changes, whether positive or negative, in the level of the Deutsche Bank G10 Currency Future Harvest Index — Excess Return™ ("DB G10 Currency Harvest Index" or the "Index") plus the interest income from the Fund's holdings of U.S. Treasury securities less the Fund's expenses. DB Commodity Services LLC serves as the Managing Owner of the Fund. The Fund is designed for investors who want a cost effective and convenient way to invest in commodity futures. The Index is composed of currency futures contracts on certain G10 currencies and is designed to exploit the trend that currencies associated with relatively high interest rates, on average, tend to rise in value relative to currencies associated with relatively low interest rates. The G10 currency universe from which the Index selects currently includes U.S. dollars, euros, Japanese yen, Canadian dollars, Swiss francs, British pounds, Australian dollars, New Zealand dollars, Norwegian krone and Swedish krona. The Fund seeks to track the Index, which is designed to reflect the return from investing up to a 2:1 leveraged basis (immediately upon rebalancing, which may then increase or decrease) in long currency futures positions for certain currencies associated with relatively high yielding interest rates and in short currency futures positions for certain currencies associated with relatively low yielding interest rates. The Fund and the Index are rebalanced and reconstituted quarterly.

This Fund is not suitable for all investors due to the speculative nature of an investment based upon the Fund’s trading which takes place in very volatile markets. Because an investment in the Fund is leveraged, even a small movement in the market price of the underlying futures contracts could cause large losses. Please see "Important Considerations" and the Prospectus for additional risk disclosures.

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 that 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.

Although short selling theoretically exposes the Fund to unlimited losses, the Fund's losses could result in the total loss of your investment.

The value of the Shares of the Fund relate directly to the value of the futures contracts and other assets held by the Fund and any fluctuation in the value of these assets could adversely affect an investment in the Fund’s Shares.

Please review the prospectus for break-even figures for the Fund.

The Fund is speculative and involves a high degree of risk. An investor may lose all or substantially all of an investment in the Fund.

The Fund is not a mutual fund or any other type of Investment Company within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and is not subject to regulation thereunder.

This material must be accompanied or preceded by a prospectus. Please read the prospectus carefully before investing.
