General Terms
It is hereby agreed (the “Agreement”) as follows between Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. (“DBSI” “we” “us” “our”) and you (the person for which DBSI executed each “Transaction” described on the face of this “Confirmation”):
Each Transaction is subject to (i) all applicable self-regulatory organization (SRO) rules, as well as the constitution, by-laws, customs, practices, guidelines, and interpretations of the exchange or market (and its clearing house or securities depository, if any) where executed; (ii) federal and state securities laws, and the rules and regulations adopted by the SEC and Federal Reserve Board; and (iii) any agreement (e.g., margin account agreement) existing between you and us.
You are responsible for carefully reviewing this Confirmation. If you disagree with the details of any Transaction stated on this Confirmation, you must notify us immediately of your objections by calling Trade Support (Tel: 212-250-2002). Unless you bring a disputed Transaction to our attention by 5:00 PM (New York time) on the fifth business day after we send this Confirmation, you shall be deemed to have accepted the Transaction as confirmed.
Settlement of all Transactions is computed for payment in New York on settlement date. If payment is made at a later date, interest (based upon a commercially reasonable rate) may be charged to the date of payment, in addition to late fees.
If payment or delivery of securities is delayed beyond settlement date, we reserve the right, at our option and without further notice, to sell out or buy in said securities and hold you liable for any loss thereby incurred, or to cancel the Transaction. All securities delivered shall be free and clear of any lien, claim or encumbrance, and all payments shall be made in full irrespective of any alleged counterclaim or right to set-off.
To the extent permitted under SEC rules, your purchased securities may be hypothecated by DBSI and may be commingled with other securities carried for the account of other customers.
If DBSI has not received from you the requisite tax certifications, DBSI is required to withhold taxes from your sale proceeds at the current tax withholding rate.
Upon your request, we will provide to you (i) the name of the contra-party to your Transaction; (ii) the time your transaction was executed; (iii) the amount of any odd-lot differential or equivalent fee charged to you; and (iv) the source and amount of any other remuneration received by DBSI in connection with your Transaction (for example, if DBSI acted as dual agent and executed your Transaction as an “agency cross” then DBSI also received a commission from the contra-party to your Transaction); (v) the market or markets of execution for your transaction.
If DBSI executed a Transaction in a mixed capacity, DBSI acted as agent, principal, and/or riskless principal. If DBSI executed a Transaction at an average price, the average price confirmed to you represents the weighted average price of multiple underlying executions, and the details of each underlying execution will be made available upon request.
If securities were purchased from “Syndicate,” DBSI (or one of its affiliates) participated in the distribution of such securities.
To the extent that a prospectus has been transmitted herewith or in a separate mailing, the securities and Transaction to which it relates are subject to the conditions set forth in such prospectus.
If the Transaction is a long sale by you and the securities sold are not presently held by us in your account, we effected the sale upon your representation that you own the securities and that you will deliver the securities to us no later than settlement date.
For open orders, it is solely your responsibility to amend or cancel such order. Once an open order is executed, the Transaction will be settled against your account.
Transactions in “when issued” and “when distributed” securities will be settled in accordance with the requirements specified by the governing SRO.
DBSI is a broker-dealer registered with the SEC. DBSI is a member of FINRA and member of SIPC. DBSI is not a bank. Securities offered, sold or recommended by DBSI are not backed or guaranteed by any bank, and are not insured by the FDIC, unless otherwise explicitly noted in writing.
Orders executed on markets outside of the US are executed consistent with Rule 15a-6 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and are typically executed by an affiliate of DBSI. If you are a client of a DBSI affiliate based outside the US, your order to transact in US securities was executed by DBSI, acting solely as execution agent, for the DBSI affiliate that holds your account.
If you transacted in a non-US security (either in “ordinary” form or ADR form), a foreign currency conversion may have been necessary to settle the Transaction. Such conversion is generally effected by a DBSI affiliate (acting as principal) that receives remuneration in connection therewith.
The principal, interest, dividend and yield rate for securities not denominated in US dollars are subject to change as foreign currency exchange rates fluctuate.
By entering into the Transaction you represent that you: (i) are knowledgeable and experienced in the risks of entering into such Transaction; (ii) have evaluated the merits, risks, and appropriateness for you of the Transaction; (iii) have addressed any legal, tax or accounting considerations applicable to you; and (iv) are able to bear the economic risks of the Transaction.
You may not assign the Transaction or your rights and obligations associated with the Transaction without our advance written consent.
No DBSI employee is authorized to amend or waive any of the terms set forth herein. No oral agreements exist to alter or modify these terms. These terms shall inure to the benefit of DBSI and its successors in interest.
If any part of these terms between you and DBSI is held to be void or unenforceable, the remaining terms shall not be affected. Any dispute regarding this Confirmation shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York, excluding its conflict of law provisions.
Transactions in Equity Securities
Transactions effected “Over-The-Counter” include Transactions effected through certain electronic communication networks (ECNs) or alternative trading systems (ATSs), as well as Transactions effected directly with DBSI or other market participants outside the facilities of an exchange market or the like.
Commission rates are individually negotiated, and any commission charged to you for this Transaction might be different than the commission charged to others for similar transactions.
DBSI receives payment for order flow for directing orders to certain broker-dealers or market centers for execution. Such remuneration is considered compensation to DBSI. The source and nature of such compensation received in connection with your Transaction will be furnished to you upon written request.
The term “Fees” includes amounts charged for executing your Transaction.
The price specified in an open order for a security that trades “ex-dividend” will be automatically adjusted by the amount of the dividend unless you instruct us otherwise.
Transactions in Fixed Income Securities

The practices in (ii) and (iii) shall be superseded by any modified practice that becomes customary in the applicable market place.
With respect to any contracts for the purchase or sale of mortgage-backed securities having a delayed settlement date, you represent that you understand (i) the market value of the securities on settlement date or during the terms of the contract could vary substantially from the price at which such securities were purchased or sold, and (ii) your inability to meet a margin call, at times on short notice, may result in the closing out of Transactions and losses to you.
If the securities are issued or guaranteed by FHLB the purchaser is purchasing the securities pursuant to the terms and conditions described in the Annual Financial Report and in the Offering Notice (as the case may be).
For any FNMA or FHLMC Single Class Security that is TBA eligible, additional pool information is available by telephoning FNMA at (800) 237-8627 or FHLMC at (800) 336-3672.
