TO OUR SHAREHOLDERS:
Dear Shareholder,
We are pleased to present this Annual Report for db-X Exchange-Traded Funds Inc. (formerly TDX Independence Funds, Inc.), which covers the year ending May 31, 2011.
Effective June 17, 2011, the names of the funds were changed to the “db-X” brand, to make it easier for investors to identify our funds. Although the names of the funds have changed, their ticker symbols and investment strategies remain the same. This change reflects our commitment to providing outstanding products and support in order to help you reach you investment goals.
Over the past year, the funds have continued to highlight the benefits of target-date investing. During the twelve months covered by this report, the db-X 2040 Target Date Fund (formerly TDX Independence 2040 Exchange-Traded Fund) and the db-X 2030 Target Date Fund (formerly TDX Independence 2030 Exchange-Traded Fund), which have the greatest percentage allocations to equities, benefitted from strong performance in domestic and international equity markets and experienced net asset value (NAV) returns of 26.32% and 23.74%, respectively.* The db-X 2020 Target Date Fund (formerly TDX Independence 2020 Exchange-Traded Fund), with a more balanced allocation between equity and fixed income securities, experienced a NAV return of 18.71%.* For investors with a shorter investment horizon, the db-X 2010 Target Date Fund (formerly TDX Independence 2010 Exchange-Traded Fund) and the db-X In-Target Date Fund (formerly TDX Independence In-Target Exchange-Traded Fund), which allocate a large percentage of assets to less volatile fixed-income securities, experienced NAV returns of 6.09% and 7.44%, respectively.*
Deutsche Bank, a leading global banking institution, has managed and operated a successful and growing platform of exchange-traded products since 2006.

The NAV return is based on the changes in a Fund’s per share NAV for the period(s) indicated. The Fund’s NAV per share is calculated by dividing the value of the Fund’s total assets less total liabilities by the number of shares outstanding. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance quoted. See pages 3-12 of this report for additional performance information, including performance data based on market value. Performance data for the most recent month end may be obtained by visiting www.dbxstrategicadvisors.db.com. Investment in the Funds poses investment risk including the possible loss of principal.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE
After being range-bound for much of the summer in 2010, a six month rally spurred by the Federal Reserve’s second round of quantitative easing and improving economic conditions helped lead equity markets to strong gains for the year ended May 31, 2011 with the S&P 500 Index increasing 25.95%, the Russell 3000 Index increasing 27.04% and the NASDAQ Composite Index increasing 26.92%. International equity markets also exhibited strength, with the MSCI EAFE Index (measuring equities in Europe, Australasia and the Far East) gaining 30.41%. U.S. fixed income securities continued to be a haven for risk-averse investors, with the Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index increasing 5.84% during the same period.
db-X Exchange-Traded Funds Inc. (the “Funds”) had a wide range of returns during the year. (For specific performance results, please refer to the Fund Performance Section on the following pages of this report.) The wide range in the performance of the five Funds was due to the varying allocations in the funds to domestic equities, international equities and fixed income securities. The 2040 Fund, which is allocated heavily towards U.S. equities, experienced a strong gain of 26.32% during the one year period ending May 31, 2011. The 2010 Fund, which has a heavy exposure to short-term U.S. Treasury securities, returned a more modest 6.09% during the same period.
The Standard & Poor’s (“S&P”) 500 Index is a broad-based index designed to measure the performance of the domestic stock market as represented by 500 large capitalization stocks.
The Russell 3000 Index is a broad-based index representing approximately 98% of the investable U.S. equity market.
The NASDAQ Composite Index is a broad-based index of NASDAQ-listed securities commonly used as a barometer of technology stock performance.
The Morgan Stanley Capital International (“MSCI”) EAFE Index is a broad-based index representing the largest stocks by market capitalization in 21 developed countries in Europe, Australasia and the Far East.
The Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index is a broad-based index designed to represent the U.S. investment-grade bond universe.
One cannot invest directly in an index. Performance quoted represents past performance and does not guarantee future results.

PERFORMANCE SUMMARY
db-X 2010 Target Date Fund (TDD)
The db-X 2010 Target Date Fund (the “Fund”) commenced investment operations and its shares began trading on the NYSE Arca, Inc. (“NYSE Arca”) on October 1, 2007. The Fund seeks to track the performance, before fees and expenses, of the Zacks 2010 Lifecycle Index. Both the Fund’s equity and bond portfolios held fewer securities than the Zacks 2010 Lifecycle Index, a constraint imposed by the relatively small size of the Fund.
For the fiscal year ended May 31, 2011, the Fund’s net asset value increased 6.09%, compared to an increase of 6.56% for the Zacks 2010 Lifecycle Index and 13.01% for the Dow Jones Target 2010 Index. The fund’s performance benefited from favorable results in several equity sectors, in particular Energy, Information Technology and Industrials, partially offset by the Fund’s heavier weighting to fixed income securities, in particular short-term U.S. Treasury securities.

Performance quoted represents past performance, assumes reinvestment of all dividends and capital gain distributions, and does not guarantee future results. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance quoted. Performance data current to the most recent month end may be obtained by visiting www.dbxstrategicadvisors.db.com. Investment in the fund poses investment risk including possible loss of principal. The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate, so that shares, when sold or redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. The gross expense ratio for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2010, as disclosed in the most recent prospectus dated September 28, 2010, was 2.10%. DBX Strategic Advisors LLC, the advisor to the Fund, has agreed to cap its fees and/or pay certain Fund operating expenses in order to limit Fund net annual operating expenses for shares of the Fund to 0.65% of the Fund’s average net assets until 9/30/11.
The preceding performance chart is provided for comparative purposes and represents the period(s) noted. The net asset value return is based on the changes in the Fund’s net asset value per share (“NAV”). The Fund’s NAV is calculated by dividing the value of the Fund’s total assets less total liabilities by the number of shares outstanding. The market price return is based on the change in the market price on the NYSE Arca of a share of the Fund for the period(s) indicated. The price used to calculate market price returns is the midpoint of the bid/ask spread for Fund shares at 4 p.m. Eastern Time on the NYSE Arca. NAV and market returns assume that dividends and capital gain distributions have been reinvested in the Fund at NAV and market price, respectively. The Dow Jones Target Date Indexes are indexes whose allocations are automatically adjusted to reduce potential risk over time. The Dow Jones Target Date Indexes are designed to measure the performance of multi-asset class portfolios that allocate among U.S. and global stock, bond and cash subindexes on a monthly basis. The indexes automatically adjust their asset allocation over time to reflect reductions in potential risk as the investor’s target date approaches.
An index is a statistical measure of a specified financial market or sector. An index does not actually hold a portfolio of securities, incur expenses or pay any transaction costs. Therefore index returns do not reflect deductions for fees or expenses and are not available for direct investment. In comparison, the Fund’s performance is negatively impacted by these deductions. Fund returns do not reflect brokerage commissions or taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or on transactions in Fund shares.
“Target Date” refers to a time in the future, generally a specified year, in which the investor expects to retire or otherwise require the use of the invested funds. Target date funds are generally more aggressive the further the target date is from the present, with an objective of capital appreciation. As the target date approaches, the fund’s objective will generally become more conservative, aiming to achieve a higher level of capital preservation. Upon reaching the target date, the Underlying Index will have approximately a 10% allocation to equity securities. Over the next five years, allocations shift from conservative to more moderately-conservative allocations, allowing for a larger exposure to equities than at the target date (“Moderately-Conservative Allocation”).
Investors should note that although target date funds aim to preserve capital as the target date approaches, there is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve this objective.

Therefore index returns do not reflect deductions for fees or expenses and are not available for direct investment. In comparison, the Fund’s performance is negatively impacted by these deductions. Fund returns do not reflect brokerage commissions or taxes that a shareholder would pay on Fund distributions or on transactions in Fund shares.
“Target Date” refers to a time in the future, generally a specified year, in which the investor expects to retire or otherwise require the use of the invested funds. Target date funds are generally more aggressive the further the target date is from the present, with an objective of capital appreciation. As the target date approaches, the fund’s objective will generally become more conservative, aiming to achieve a higher level of capital preservation. Upon reaching the target date, the Underlying Index will have approximately a 10% allocation to equity securities. Over the next five years, allocations shift from conservative to more moderately-conservative allocations, allowing for a larger exposure to equities than at the target date (“Moderately-Conservative Allocation”).
Investors should note that although target date funds aim to preserve capital as the target date approaches, there is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve this objective.

PERFORMANCE SUMMARY
db-X 2040 Target Date Fund (TDV)
The db-X 2040 Target Date Fund (the “Fund”) commenced investment operations and its shares began trading on the NYSE Arca, Inc. (“NYSE Arca”) on October 1, 2007. The Fund seeks to track the performance, before fees and expenses, of the Zacks 2040 Lifecycle Index. Both the Fund’s equity and bond portfolios held fewer securities than the Zacks 2040 Lifecycle Index, a constraint imposed by the relatively small size of the Fund.
For the fiscal year ended May 31, 2011, the Fund’s net asset value increased 26.32%, compared to an increase of 27.00% for the Zacks 2040 Lifecycle Index and 26.33% for the Dow Jones Target 2040 Index. The fund’s performance benefitted from its heavy weighting to equities with favorable results in several sectors, in particular Energy, Information Technology and Industrials.

1 Total returns are calculated based on the commencement of trading, 10/1/07 (“Inception”).
Performance quoted represents past performance, assumes reinvestment of all dividends and capital gain distributions, and does not guarantee future results. Current performance may be higher or lower than the performance quoted. Performance data current to the most recent month end may be obtained by visiting www.dbxstrategicadvisors.db.com. Investment in the fund poses investment risk including possible loss of principal. The investment return and principal value of an investment will fluctuate, so that shares, when sold or redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. The gross expense ratio for the fiscal year ended May 31, 2010, as disclosed in the most recent prospectus dated September 28, 2010, was 1.97%. DBX Strategic Advisors LLC, the advisor to the Fund, has agreed to cap its fees and/or pay certain Fund operating expenses in order to limit Fund net annual operating expenses for shares of the Fund to 0.65% of the Fund’s average net assets until 9/30/11.
The preceding performance chart is provided for comparative purposes and represents the period(s) noted. The net asset value return is based on the changes in the Fund’s net asset value per share (“NAV”). The Fund’s NAV is calculated by dividing the value of the Fund’s total assets less total liabilities by the number of shares outstanding. The market price return is based on the change in the market price on the NYSE Arca of a share of the Fund for the period(s) indicated. The price used to calculate market price returns is the midpoint of the bid/ask spread for Fund shares at 4 p.m. Eastern Time on the NYSE Arca. NAV and market returns assume that dividends and capital gain distributions have been reinvested in the Fund at NAV and market price, respectively. The Dow Jones Target Date Indexes are indexes whose allocations are automatically adjusted to reduce potential risk over time. The Dow Jones Target Date Indexes are designed to measure the performance of multi-asset class portfolios that allocate among U.S. and global stock, bond and cash subindexes on a monthly basis. The indexes automatically adjust their asset allocation over time to reflect reductions in potential risk as the investor’s target date approaches.

FEES AND EXPENSES
As a shareholder of one or more of the funds of db-X Exchange-Traded Funds Inc. (each, a “Fund” and collectively, the “Funds” or “db-X Target Date Funds”), you incur advisory fees and other Fund expenses. The expense examples below are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Funds and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other funds.
The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period and held through the six month period ended May 31, 2011.
ACTUAL EXPENSES
The first line in the following tables provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number in the first line under the heading “Expenses Paid During the Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
HYPOTHETICAL EXAMPLE FOR COMPARISON PURPOSES
The second line in the following tables provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Funds’ actual expense ratios and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses (which is not the Funds’ actual return). The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
Please note that the expenses shown in the tables are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only, and do not reflect any transactional costs. Therefore the second line in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

(1) DBX Strategic Advisors LLC (the “Advisor”), has contractually agreed to reduce its fees and/or pay Fund operating expenses (excluding, among other things, acquired fund fees and expenses, interest, taxes and extraordinary expenses) in order to limit each Fund’s net annual operating expenses for shares of each Fund to 0.65% of the Fund’s average net assets (the “Expense Cap”). The Expense Cap will remain in effect until September 30, 2011. The Advisor is permitted to be reimbursed for fee reductions and/or expense payments made in the prior three fiscal years. This reimbursement may be paid to the Advisor if the aggregate amount actually paid by a Fund toward operating expenses for such fiscal year (taking into account the reimbursement) does not exceed the Expense Cap. Ratios would have been higher if fees were not reduced by the Advisor.
(2) Expenses are calculated using the annualized expense ratio, which represents the ongoing expenses as a percentage of net assets for the period December 1, 2010 to May 31, 2011. Expenses are calculated by multiplying the Fund’s annualized expense ratio by the average account value for the period; then multiplying the result by 182 days and then dividing the result by 365.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. ORGANIZATION
db-X Exchange-Traded Funds Inc. (formerly TDX Independence Funds, Inc.) (the “Company”) was organized as a Maryland corporation on December 22, 2006 and is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Act”).
Effective June 17, 2011, the Board of Directors of TDX Independence Funds, Inc. agreed to change the name of the Company from TDX Independence Funds, Inc. to db-X Exchange-Traded Funds Inc. As of May 31, 2011, there were five (5) series of exchange-traded funds (“ETF”) (each, a “Fund,” and collectively, the “Funds,” or “db-X Exchange-Traded Funds”) in operation and trading, each of which were rebranded under the DBX Strategic Advisors LLC (“DBX” or the “Advisor”) name, as follows:
| | |
db-X 2010 Target Date Fund (formerly TDX Independence 2010 Exchange-Traded Fund) | | “db-X 2010 Fund” |
| |
db-X 2020 Target Date Fund (formerly TDX Independence 2020 Exchange-Traded Fund) | | “db-X 2020 Fund” |
| |
db-X 2030 Target Date Fund (formerly TDX Independence 2030 Exchange-Traded Fund) | | “db-X 2030 Fund” |
| |
db-X 2040 Target Date Fund (formerly TDX Independence 2040 Exchange-Traded Fund) | | “db-X 2040 Fund” |
| |
db-X In-Target Date Fund (formerly TDX Independence In-Target Exchange-Traded Fund) | | “db-X In-Target Fund” |
DBX serves as investment advisor to the Funds and has overall responsibility for the general management and administration of the Funds, subject to the supervision of the Funds’ Board of Directors.
Each Fund offers shares, known as db-X Target Date Shares, that are listed and traded on the NYSE Arca, Inc. (“NYSE Arca”). Unlike conventional mutual funds, each Fund issues and redeems shares on a continuous basis, at net asset value, only in large specified lots consisting of 200,000 shares, each called a “Creation Unit.” Except when aggregated in Creation Units, shares are not individually redeemable securities of the Funds.
The investment objective of each Fund is to track the performance, before fees and expenses, of a particular index (the “Underlying Index”). Zacks Investment Research (“Zacks”) is the creator of each Underlying Index. Each Underlying Index is comprised of a mix of securities from three broad asset classes: international equities, domestic equities, and fixed income, which includes cash, cash equivalents or short-term money market instruments. Short-term instruments include obligations of the U.S. government and its agencies or instrumentalities; commercial paper, variable amount master demand notes and other debt securities, including high quality U.S. dollar-denominated short-term bonds and notes issued by domestic and foreign corporations; variable and floating rate securities; bank obligations; repurchase agreements collateralized by these securities; and shares of other investment companies that primarily invest in any of the above-referenced securities. These Underlying Indexes are designed to reflect a portfolio of investments that can be used for lifecycle investing. Lifecycle investing is an investment technique that starts by targeting a particular investment horizon. That investment horizon corresponds to the date the investor expects to need his or her invested assets.
The underlying indexes for the db-X Exchange-Traded Funds are:
| | |
Fund | | Underlying Index |
db-X 2010 Fund | | Zacks 2010 Lifecycle Index |
db-X 2020 Fund | | Zacks 2020 Lifecycle Index |
db-X 2030 Fund | | Zacks 2030 Lifecycle Index |
db-X 2040 Fund | | Zacks 2040 Lifecycle Index |
db-X In-Target Fund | | Zacks In-Target Lifecycle Index |
Each Fund is entitled to use its respective Underlying Index pursuant to a licensing agreement between Zacks and DBX. There is no charge to the Funds in connection with these licensing agreements.
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”), which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Funds.

db-X Exchange-Traded Funds Inc.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
Investment Valuation The Net Asset Value (“NAV”), of each Fund’s shares is calculated each business day as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange, generally 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time. NAV per share is calculated by dividing a Fund’s net assets by the number of Fund shares outstanding. Investments are valued at fair value. Any assets or securities for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at fair-value in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors has delegated to the Advisor the responsibility to exercise oversight in the administration of these procedures.
The Funds are subject to fair value accounting standards that define fair value, establish the framework for measuring fair value and provide a three-tier hierarchy to maximize the use of observable market data and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. Inputs refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk, for example, the risk inherent in a particular valuation technique used to measure fair value. Inputs may be based on independent market data (“observable inputs”) or they may be internally developed (“unobservable inputs”). The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurement) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:
| • | | Level 1 — quoted prices in active markets for identical securities |
| • | | Level 2 — Inputs other than quoted prices included within Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not considered to be active, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, and inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data by correlation or other means |
| • | | Level 3 — significant unobservable inputs (including a Fund’s own assumption in determining the fair value of investments |
The level of a value determined for a financial instrument within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. However, the determination of what constitutes an “observable” input may require significant judgment by the Funds. The Funds consider observable inputs to be market data that is readily available, regularly distributed or updated, reliable and verifiable, and provided by independent sources that are actively involved in the relevant market. The categorization of a value determined for a financial instrument within the hierarchy is based upon the pricing transparency of the instrument and does not necessarily correspond to the Funds’ perceived risk of that instrument.
Level 1 investments consist of active listed equities.
Level 2 investments generally include certain U.S. government and sovereign obligations, most government agency securities and investment-grade corporate bonds.
Level 3 investments may include unlisted securities related to corporate actions, securities whose trading have been suspended or which have been de-listed from their primary trading exchange and less liquid corporate debt securities. When observable prices are not available for these securities, the Funds use one or more valuation techniques (e.g., the market approach or the income approach) for which sufficient and reliable data is available. Within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy, the use of the market approach generally consists of using comparable market transactions, while the use of the income approach generally consists of the net present value of estimated future cash flows, adjusted as appropriate for liquidity, credit, market and/or other risk factors.
The inputs used by the Funds in estimating the value of investments classified as Level 3 may include the original transaction price, quoted prices for similar securities or assets in active markets, completed or pending third-party transactions in the underlying investment or comparable issuers, and changes in financial ratios or cash flows. Level 3 securities may also be adjusted to reflect illiquidity and/or non-transferability, with the amount of such discount estimated by the Funds in the absence of market information. The fair value measurement of Level 3 securities does not include transaction costs that may have been capitalized as part of the security’s cost basis. Assumptions used by the Funds due to the lack of observable inputs may significantly impact the resulting fair value and therefore the Funds’ results of operations. There were no securities classified as Level 3 at May 31, 2011.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
Fair value pricing could result in a difference between the prices used to calculate a Fund’s net asset value and the prices used by the Fund’s underlying index, which in turn could result in a difference between the Fund’s performance and the performance of the Fund’s underlying index.
The following is a summary of the inputs used as of May 31, 2011 in valuing each Fund’s investments at fair value:

No. 2010-06 Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements. ASU 2010-06 which, among other disclosure items requires the Funds to include disclosures on purchases, sales, issuances and settlements in the reconciliation of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. This is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2010. The Advisor has evaluated the implications of ASU No. 2010-06 and does not anticipate a material impact on the financial statements.
In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-04 Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs. ASU 2011-04 includes common requirements for measurement of and disclosure about fair value between U.S. GAAP and IFRS. ASU 2011-04 will require reporting entities to disclose the following information for fair value measurements categorized within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy: quantitative information about the unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement, the valuation processes used by the reporting entity and a narrative description of the sensitivity of the fair value measurement to changes in unobservable inputs and the interrelationships between those unobservable inputs. In addition, ASU 2011-04 will require reporting entities to make disclosures about amounts and reasons for transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements. The new and revised disclosures are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2011. The Advisor is currently evaluating the implications of ASU No. 2011-04 and its impact on the financial statements.
Investment Transactions and Investment Income Investment transactions are recorded as of the date that the
securities are purchased or sold (trade date). Realized gains and losses from the sale or disposition of securities are calculated on the identified cost-method. Dividend income is net of any foreign taxes withheld at source. Interest income is recorded on the accrual basis. Discounts and premiums on securities purchased are accreted/amortized over the lives of the respective securities.
Tax Information and Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders It is each Fund’s policy to comply with all requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (“the Code”). Each fund intends to qualify for and to elect treatment as a separate Regulated Investment Company (“RIC”) under Subchapter M of the Code. It is the policy of each Fund to pay out dividends, if any, to investors at least annually sufficient to relieve it from all, or substantially all, Federal income and excise taxes. Taxable net realized gains from investment transactions, reduced by capital loss carryforwards, if any, are declared and distributed to shareholders at least annually. The capital loss carryforward amount, if any, is available to offset future net capital gains. The Funds may occasionally be required to make supplemental distributions at some other time during the year. The Funds reserve the right to declare special distributions if, in their reasonable discretion, such action is necessary or advisable to preserve the status of each Fund as a RIC or to avoid imposition of income or excise taxes on undistributed income. Dividends and distributions to shareholders, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The amount of dividends and distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains are determined in accordance with Federal income tax regulations which may differ from U.S. GAAP. These “book/tax” differences are either considered temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified at the end of the year within the components of net assets based on their federal tax treatment; temporary differences do not require reclassification. Dividends and distributions, which exceed earnings and profits for the full year for tax purposes, are reported as a tax return of capital. Each Fund pays out dividends from its net investment income to investors annually. Each Fund distributes any net capital gains annually.
Expenses Expenses that are directly related to a specific Fund are charged to that respective Fund. Expenses which are not readily identifiable to a specific Fund are allocated in such a manner as deemed equitable, taking into consideration the nature and type of expense and the relative net assets of each Fund.
Foreign Currency Translation The accounting records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars. Foreign currencies, as well as investment securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are translated into U.S. dollars using an exchange rate deemed appropriate by the investment advisor. The effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates on investments in securities are not segregated in the Statements of Operations from the effects of changes in market prices of those securities, but are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investments in securities. Unrealized gains and losses on assets and liabilities, other than investments in securities, which result from changes in foreign currency exchange rates have been included in “Net change in unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on foreign currency translations” on the Statements of Operations. The portion of foreign currency gains and losses related to fluctuations in exchange rates between the initial purchase trade date and subsequent sale trade date is included in “Net realized gain (loss) from foreign currency related transactions” on the Statements of Operations. Certain

foreign exchange gains and losses included in realized and unrealized gains or losses are included in or are a reduction of ordinary income in accordance with U.S. Federal income tax regulations.
Taxes The Funds are subject to accounting standards that establish a minimum threshold for recognizing, and a system for measuring, the benefits of a tax position taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. Taxable years ended 2007, 2008, 2009, 2010 and 2011 remain open to federal and state audit.
Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid debt instruments purchased with a maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. As of May 31, 2011, there were no cash equivalents.
3. INVESTMENT ADVISORY AND OTHER AGREEMENTS
The Advisor has overall responsibility for the general management and administration of the Funds, subject to the supervision of the Fund’s Board of Directors. Under an investment advisory agreement between the Company, on behalf of the Funds, and the Advisor (the “Investment Advisory Agreement”), the Advisor is responsible for arranging sub-advisory, transfer agency, custody, fund administration, and all other non-distribution related services for the Funds to operate. The Advisor is also responsible for employing any sampling strategy for the Funds.
For the services it provides to the Funds, the Advisor receives a unified advisory fee computed daily and payable monthly in an amount equal to 0.65% on an annualized basis of each Fund’s average daily net assets. Out of the advisory fee, the Advisor pays, or arranges for the payment of, all fees and expenses of the Sub-Advisor, Transfer Agent, the Administrator and Accounting Agent and the Custodian. Each Fund is responsible for the payment of all other expenses associated with its operations, including but not limited to, brokerage expenses, taxes, interest, fees and expenses of counsel to the Funds, fees and expenses of the Disinterested Directors (including legal counsel fees), certain out-of-pocket expenses of the Advisor or Sub-Advisor, including, but not limited to, cost of obtaining prices for security valuations (including manual broker quotes), Federal Reserve charges related to securities transactions, postage and insurance on physical transfer items, telecommunication charges, and proxy voting execution, advice and reporting etc., fees and expenses of the Chief Compliance Officer and expenses associated with the Funds’ compliance program, litigation expenses, fees and expenses of the Funds’ independent auditors, registration fees, expenses associated with compliance by the Funds with regulatory requirements, including those relating to the development and distribution of its prospectus and shareholder reports, and extraordinary expenses. Pursuant to the Investment Advisory Agreement, the Advisor is authorized to engage one or more sub-advisors to perform any of the services contemplated to be performed by the Advisor under the Investment Advisory Agreement.
For the year ended May 31, 2011, the Advisor and Sub-Advisor reimbursed the Funds $1,532 and $37,655, respectively, in connection with the reversal of certain trades effected with an affiliated broker-dealer.
TDAM USA Inc. (“TDAM”) acts as investment sub-advisor to the Funds (“Sub-Advisor”). TDAM is a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of The Toronto-Dominion Bank. The Sub-Advisor is responsible for the day-to-day management of the Funds, subject to the supervision of the Advisor and the Funds’ Board of Directors. In this regard, the Sub-Advisor is responsible for implementing the replication strategy for each Fund with regard to its underlying index and for general administration, compliance and management services as may be agreed between the Advisor and Sub Advisor from time to time. During the period June 1, 2010 to October 20, 2010, Amerivest Investment Management, LLC (“Amerivest”) was also a Sub-advisor. Amerivest is a wholly-owned subsidiary of TD AMERITRADE Holding Corporation.
The Advisor pays TDAM, out of its own resources, a fee based on a percentage of the average daily net assets of each Fund as set forth below:
| • | | 10 basis points (0.10%) of the first $100 million in combined daily net assets of all Funds; and |
| • | | 5 basis points (0.05%) of the combined daily net assets of all Funds in excess of $100 million. |
The Advisor pays TDAM a minimum annual fee of $35,000 per Fund.
The Advisor has contractually agreed to reduce its fees and/or pay Fund operating expenses (excluding, among other things, acquired fund fees and expenses, interest, taxes and extraordinary expenses) in order to limit each Fund’s net annual operating expenses to 0.65% of the Fund’s average daily net assets (the “Expense Cap”). The Expense Cap will remain in effect until September 30, 2011. The Advisor is permitted to be reimbursed for fee reductions and/or expense payments made in the prior three fiscal years. This reimbursement may be paid to the Advisor if the aggregate amount actually paid by a Fund toward operating expenses for such fiscal year (taking into account the reimbursement) does not exceed the Expense Cap. No amounts were reimbursed under this contractual arrangement during the fiscal year ended May 31, 2011.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
At May 31, 2011, for Federal income tax purposes, the Funds have capital loss carryforwards available as shown in the table below, to the extent provided by regulations, to offset future capital gains through the years indicated. To the extent that these loss carryforwards are used to offset future capital gains, it is probable that the capital gains so offset will not be distributed to shareholders. The use of some portion of the capital carryforwards by any one Fund may be limited by Federal tax rules. These rules limit the use of the carryforwards when there has been a greater than fifty percent change in ownership of a Fund.

db-X 2010 Fund, db-X 2020 Fund and db-X In-Target Fund utilized $31,512, $241,594 and $154,425 respectively, of capital loss carryforwards during the fiscal year ended May 31, 2011.
Under the recently enacted Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (the “Act”), the Funds will be permitted to carry forward capital losses incurred in taxable years beginning after December 22, 2010 for an unlimited period. However, any losses incurred during those future taxable years (beginning on June 1, 2011) will be required to be utilized prior to the losses incurred in pre-enactment taxable years. As a result of this ordering rule, pre-enactment capital loss carryforwards presented in the table above may be more likely to expire unused. Additionally, post-enactment capital losses that are carried forward will retain their character as either short-term or long-term capital losses rather than being considered all short-term as under previous law.
Capital losses incurred after October 31 (“post-October losses”) within the taxable year are deemed to arise on the first business day of each Fund’s next taxable year. Capital losses can be carried forward for a period of eight years.
During the fiscal year ended May 31, 2011, the Funds incurred and elected to defer net capital losses as follows:
| | | | | | | | |
| | Post-October Losses on Capital | | | Post-October Losses on Currency | |
db-X 2010 Fund | | $ | — | | | $ | 684 | |

In order to present paid-in capital and accumulated net realized gains or losses on the Statements of Assets and Liabilities that more closesly represent their tax character, certain adjustments have been made to additional paid-in capital, undistributed net investment income or loss and accumulated net realized gains or losses on investments. These differences are primarily due to currency gain/(loss) and redemptions-in-kind. For the fiscal year ended May 31, 2011, the adjustments were as follows:

As of May 31, 2011, there were 12.5 billion shares of $0.0001 par value Fund shares authorized by the Company. Fund shares are issued and redeemed by each Fund only in Creation Units or multiples thereof. Except when aggregated in Creation Units, shares of each Fund are not redeemable. Transactions in capital shares for each Fund are disclosed in detail in the Statements of Changes in Net Assets. The consideration for the purchase of Creation Units of a Fund generally consists of the in-kind contribution of a designated portfolio of securities constituting a portfolio sampling representation of the securities included in the relevant Fund’s underlying index and an amount of cash. Investors purchasing and redeeming Creation Units pay a purchase transaction fee and a redemption transaction fee to offset transfer and other transaction costs associated with the issuance and redemption of Creation Units.
8. INDEMNIFICATIONS
In the normal course of business the Company enters into contracts that contain a variety of representations that provide indemnification for certain liabilities. The Company’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown, as this would involve future claims that may be made against the Funds that have not yet occurred. However, the Company expects the risk of loss to be remote.
9. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
The Company evaluated the need for disclosure and/or adjustment resulting from subsequent events through the date the financial statements were available to be issued. This evaluation did not result in any subsequent events that necessitated disclosure and/or adjustment.

(the “Company”), consisting of: db-X 2010 Target Date Fund, db-X 2020 Target Date Fund, db-X 2030 Target Date Fund, db-X 2040 Target Date Fund, and db-X In-Target Date Fund (formerly, TDX Independence 2010 Exchange-Traded Fund, TDX Independence 2020 Exchange-Traded Fund, TDX Independence 2030 Exchange-Traded Fund, TDX Independence 2040 Exchange-Traded Fund, and TDX Independence In-Target Exchange-Traded Fund, respectively), as of May 31, 2011, and the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets and the financial highlights for each of the two years in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits. The financial highlights for the indicated periods through May 31, 2009, were audited by other auditors whose report, dated July 28, 2009, expressed an unqualified opinion on such financial statements and financial highlights.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. We were not engaged to perform an audit of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of May 31, 2011, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers or by other appropriate auditing procedures where replies from brokers were not received. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of db-X 2010 Target Date Fund, db-X 2020 Target Date Fund, db-X 2030 Target Date Fund, db-X 2040 Target Date Fund, db-X In-Target Date Fund of db-X Exchange-Traded Funds Inc. at May 31, 2011, the results of their operations, the changes in their net assets and the financial highlights for each of the two years in the period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

FREQUENCY DISTRIBUTION OF DISCOUNTS & PREMIUMS
The tables that follow present information about the differences between the daily market price on secondary markets for shares of a Fund and that Fund’s net asset value (“NAV”). NAV is the price per share at which each Fund issues and redeems shares. It is calculated in accordance with the standard formula for valuing mutual fund shares. The price used to calculate market returns (“Market Price”) of each Fund generally is determined using the midpoint between the highest bid and the lower offer on the national securities exchange on which the shares of such Fund are listed for trading, as of the time that the Fund’s NAV is calculated. Each Fund’s Market Price may be at, above or below its NAV. The NAV of each Fund will fluctuate with changes in the market value of its portfolio holdings. The Market Price of each Fund will fluctuate in accordance with changes in its NAV, as well as market supply and demand. Shareholders may pay more than NAV when they buy Fund shares and receive less than NAV when they sell those shares, because shares are bought and sold at current market prices.
Premiums or discounts are the differences (expressed as a percentage) between the NAV and Market Price of a Fund on a given day, generally at the time NAV is calculated. A premium is the amount that a Fund is trading above the reported NAV, expressed as a percentage of the NAV. A discount is the amount that a Fund is trading below the reported NAV, expressed as a percentage of the NAV.
The following information shows the frequency distributions of premiums and discounts for each Fund included in this report. The information shown for each Fund is for each full calendar quarter completed after the inception date of such Fund, October 1, 2007, through the fiscal year ended May 31, 2011.
Each line in the table shows the number of trading days in which a Fund trades within the premium/discount range indicated. The number of trading days in each premium/discount range is also shown as a percentage of the total number of trading days in the period covered by each table. All data presented here represents past performance, which cannot be used to predict future results.

This report is intended for the shareholders of the db-X Exchange-Traded Funds. It may not be distributed to prospective Investors unless it is preceded or accompanied by the current prospectus.
An Investor should consider the fund’s investment objective, risks, charges and expenses carefully before investing. For this and more complete information about the fund call 877-369-4617 or visit the website www.dbxstrategicadvisors.db.com. Please read the prospectus carefully before investing.
There are risks involved with investing in exchange-traded funds including possible loss of money. db-X Exchange-Traded Funds are not actively managed and are subject to risks similar to stocks, including those related to short selling and margin maintenance. Losses from short sales may be unlimited, and losses from purchases on margin may exceed original investment.
Investments in small and medium capitalization companies will be subject to higher volatility than larger, more established companies.
Investments in foreign securities will be subject to certain risks not associated with domestic securities, such as currency fluctuations, and changes in political and economic conditions.
Investments in fixed income securities will be subject to certain risks as well. The prices of fixed income securities respond to economic developments, particularly interest rate changes, as well as to perceptions about the credit risk of individual issuers. Generally, fixed income securities will decrease in value if interest rates rise, and the volatility of lower rated securities is even greater than that of higher rated securities.
There is no assurance that the investment process will consistently lead to successful investing. Diversification does not eliminate the risk of experiencing investment losses.
The prospectus is not an offer to buy or sell the portfolio shares, nor is the fund soliciting an offer to buy its shares in any jurisdiction where the offer or sale is not permitted.
db-X Exchange-Traded Funds are distributed by ALPS Distributors, Inc., member of FINRA, which is neither affiliated with db-X Exchange-Traded Funds Inc. or any other affiliate, nor is it affiliated with The Bank of New York Mellon, Amerivest Investment Management, LLC, or TDAM USA Inc.
“Target Date” refers to a time in the future, generally a specified year, in which the investor expects to retire or otherwise require the use of the invested funds. Target date funds are generally more aggressive the further the target date is from the present, with an objective of capital appreciation. As the target date approaches, the fund’s objective will generally become more conservative, aiming to achieve a higher level of capital preservation.
Investors should note that although target date funds aim to preserve capital as the target date approaches, there is no guarantee that the fund will achieve this objective.
