If the securities are not automatically called and the ending level of the lowest performing index is less than its call threshold level, you will have 1-to-1 downside exposure to the decrease in the level of the lowest performing Index in excess of the buffer amount of 10%, and will lose some, and possibly up to 90%, of the face amount of your securities at maturity.

 

Any positive return on the securities will be limited to the applicable call premium, even if the closing level of the lowest performing Index on the applicable call date significantly exceeds its starting level. You will not participate in any appreciation of any Index beyond the applicable call premium.

 

On the date of the accompanying preliminary pricing supplement, the estimated initial value of the securities is $964.60 per security. The estimated initial value of the securities on the pricing date may differ from this value but will not be less than $914.00 per security. However, as discussed in more detail in the accompanying preliminary pricing supplement, the actual value of the securities at any time will reflect many factors and cannot be predicted with accuracy.
