Hypothetical Payout Profile*

If the securities are automatically called, the positive return on the securities will be limited to the call premium, even if the closing level of the Index on the call date significantly exceeds the starting level. If the securities are automatically called, you will not have the opportunity to participate in any appreciation of the Index at the upside participation rate.

If the securities are not automatically called and the ending level is less than the threshold level, you will have full downside exposure to the decrease in the level of the Index from the starting level and will lose more than 30%, and possibly all, of the principal amount of your securities at maturity.
