Redemption Amount:
|
At maturity, you will be entitled to receive a Redemption Amount that will depend on the performance of the Underlying and whether a Knock-In Event has occurred, determined as follows:
|
|||||||
•
|
If the Final Level is greater than or equal to the Initial Level, you will be entitled to receive a Redemption Amount in cash that will equal the principal amount of the securities you hold multiplied by the sum of 1 plus the product of:
(Upside Participation Rate × Underlying Return); subject to the Maximum Upside Return
|
|||||||
•
|
If the Final Level is less than the Initial Level and:
|
|||||||
•
|
if a Knock-In Event has not occurred, you will be entitled to receive a Redemption Amount in cash that will equal the principal amount of the securities you hold multiplied by the sum of 1 plus the absolute value of the Underlying Return.
|
|||||||
•
|
if a Knock-In Event has occurred, you will be entitled to receive a Redemption Amount in cash that will equal the principal amount of the securities you hold multiplied by the sum of 1 plus the Underlying Return. In this case, the Redemption Amount will be less than the principal amount of your securities, and may be zero. You could lose your entire investment.
|
|||||||
The maximum Redemption Amount if the Final Level is greater than the Initial Level is $1,262.50 for every $1,000 principal amount of the securities. If the Final Level is less than the Initial Level but a Knock-In Event has not occurred, the maximum Redemption Amount is $1,299.99 for every $1,000 principal amount of the securities.
