The manager and trustee have resolved to make a distribution to holders of dbx USA securities
recorded in the register on Wednesday, 24 December 2014 in respect of the six months ended 31
December 2014.

Details of the distribution are set out below:

-    The net distribution payable to holders will be an amount in ZAR equivalent to USD
     0.00826 (zero point eight two six cents) per dbx USA security (the “USD distribution
     amount”).
-    The USD distribution amount will be converted to ZAR at the exchange rate prevailing on
     or about Wednesday, 21 January 2015, details of which will be released on SENS on or

trackers on dividends. Foreign withholding tax as a percentage of gross foreign dividends is equal to
14.76%. The USD distribution amount of USD 0.00826 per dbx USA security is calculated as follows:

-  Less: Other income of USD 0.00005 (zero point zero zero five cents);
