Hypothetical Payout Profile***

 

***assumes a call premium equal to the lowest possible call premium that may be determined on the pricing date.

 

 

If the securities are automatically called, the positive return on the securities will be limited to the call premium, and you will not participate in any appreciation of any Underlier, which may be significant. If the securities are automatically called, you will no longer have the opportunity to participate in any appreciation of any Underlier at the upside participation rate.

If the securities are not automatically called, and the ending value of the lowest performing Underlier on the final calculation day is less than its threshold value, you will have full downside exposure to the decrease in the value of the lowest performing Underlier on the final calculation day from its starting value and will lose more than 25%, and possibly all, of the face amount of your securities at maturity.

The current estimated value of the securities is approximately $956.70 per security. While the estimated value of the securities at pricing may differ from the estimated value set forth above, the issuer does not expect it to differ significantly absent a material change in market conditions or other relevant factors. In no event will the estimated value of the securities on the pricing date be less than $920.00 per security. See “Estimated Value of the Securities” in the accompanying preliminary pricing supplement for more information.
