Summary

The Step-Up Callable Range Accrual Notes Referencing the S&P 500^® Index, due September     , 2020 (the “notes”) are our senior unsecured debt securities. The notes are not guaranteed or insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or secured by collateral. The notes will rank equally with all of our other unsecured and unsubordinated debt, and all payments due on the notes, including repayment of the principal amount, will be subject to the credit risk of BAC.

The notes will provide quarterly interest payments at the fixed rate of 6.00% per annum during the first year of their term. Thereafter, the notes will provide quarterly interest payments at a rate based upon the number of Index Business Days (as defined below) in the applicable quarterly Interest Determination Period (as defined below) on which the level of S&P 500^® Index (the “Index”) is above the Reference Index Level, as described below. The maximum annual rate of interest payable on the notes in any quarterly interest period will be between 6.00% and 7.50%, depending on the applicable interest period. We have the right to redeem all, but not less than all, of the notes on September     , 2015 and on any subsequent interest payment date. If the notes have not been previously redeemed, we will pay to you at maturity the principal amount of your notes plus any accrued and unpaid interest, subject to our credit risk. The notes are not traditional debt securities and, during any interest period after the first year of the term of the notes, it is possible that the notes will not pay interest or will pay interest at a very low rate.

Capitalized terms used but not defined in this term sheet have the meanings set forth in the product supplement RANGE-1. Unless otherwise indicated or unless the context requires otherwise, all references in this document to “we,” “us,” “our,” or similar references are to BAC.

Hypothetical Interest Rate Calculations

Examples

Set forth below are five examples of the calculation of the interest rate (rounded to three decimal places) payable on the interest payment date for the interest period beginning on September     , 2011. The examples are based on a hypothetical interest period that has 90 calendar days, 66 Index Business Days in the related Interest Determination Period, and the applicable maximum rate of 6.50% per annum. These examples are for purposes of illustration only. The actual interest rate for any interest period beginning on September     , 2011 will depend on the actual number of Index Business Days in the applicable Interest Determination Period, the actual number of calendar days in that period, the applicable rate, and the closing level of the Index on each Index Business Day during the applicable Interest Determination Period.

Example 1: There were no Index Business Days during the Interest Determination Period on which the Index was above the Reference Index Level:

Hypothetical N: 0

Hypothetical D: 66

Hypothetical annual rate: 6.50% × 0/66 = 0.000%

Hypothetical interest rate payable for that quarterly interest period: 0.000% x 90/360 = 0.000%

Example 2: There were 18 Index Business Days during the Interest Determination Period on which the Index was above the Reference Index Level:

Hypothetical N: 18

Hypothetical D: 66

Hypothetical annual rate: 6.50% × 18/66 = 1.773%

Hypothetical interest rate payable for that quarterly interest period: 1.773% x 90/360 = 0.443%

Example 3: There were 36 Index Business Days during the Interest Determination Period on which the Index was above the Reference Index Level:

Hypothetical N: 36

Hypothetical D: 66

Hypothetical annual rate: 6.50% × 36/66 = 3.545%

Hypothetical interest rate payable for that quarterly interest period: 3.545% x 90/360 = 0.886%

Example 4: There were 54 Index Business Days during the Interest Determination Period on which the Index was above the Reference Index Level:

Hypothetical N: 54

Hypothetical D: 66

Hypothetical annual rate: 6.50% × 54/66 = 5.318%

Hypothetical interest rate payable for that quarterly interest period: 5.318% x 90/360 = 1.330%

Example 5: The Index was above the Reference Index Level on each Index Business Day during the Interest Determination Period:

Hypothetical N: 66

Hypothetical D: 66

Hypothetical annual rate: 6.50% × 66/66 = 6.500%

Hypothetical interest rate payable for that quarterly interest period: 6.500% x 90/360 = 1.625%

Risk Factors

There are important differences between the notes and a conventional debt security. An investment in the notes involves significant risks, including those listed below. You should carefully review the more detailed explanation of risks relating to the notes in the “Risk Factors” sections beginning on page S-8 of product supplement RANGE-1 and page S-4 of the MTN prospectus supplement identified below under “Additional Terms.” We also urge you to consult your investment, legal, tax, accounting, and other advisors before you invest in the notes.

§ It is possible that you may receive no interest, or only a limited amount of interest, for one or more interest periods after the first year of the term of the notes.

§ Your yield may be less than the yield on a conventional debt security of comparable maturity.

§ In no event will the per annum interest rate for any quarterly interest period exceed the rate that is applicable to that period.

§ The notes are subject to our early redemption.

§ You must rely on your own evaluation of the merits of an investment linked to the Index.

§ Payments on the notes are subject to our credit risk, and changes in our credit ratings are expected to affect the value of the notes.

§ In seeking to provide you with what we believe to be commercially reasonable terms for the notes while providing MLPF&S with compensation for its services, we have considered the costs of developing, hedging, and distributing the notes.

§ A trading market is not expected to develop for the notes. MLPF&S is not obligated to make a market for, or to repurchase, the notes.

§ If you attempt to sell the notes prior to maturity, their market value, if any, will be affected by various factors that interrelate in complex ways and their market value may be less than the Original Offering Price.

§ Purchases and sales by us and our affiliates of stocks included in the Index may affect your return.

§ Our trading and hedging activities may create conflicts of interest with you.

§ Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC (“S&P”) may adjust the Index in a way that affects its level, and S&P has no obligation to consider your interests.

§ You will have no rights of a holder of the securities included in the Index, and you will not be entitled to receive securities or dividends or other distributions of the issuers of those securities.

§ While we or our affiliates may from time to time own shares of companies included in the Index, except to the extent that our common stock is included in the Index, we do not control any company included in the Index, and are not responsible for any disclosure made by any other company.

§ Our business activities relating to the companies included in the Index may create conflicts of interest with you.

§ There may be potential conflicts of interest involving the calculation agent. We have the right to appoint and remove the calculation agent.

Investor Considerations

You may wish to consider an investment in the notes if:

§ You anticipate that the Index will be above the Reference Index Level for most or all of the Interest Determination Periods.

§ You accept that the interest rate applicable to each quarterly interest period after the first year of the term of the notes is uncertain and may be 0.00% per annum.

§ You accept that, even if the Index is above the Reference Index Level on each Index Business Day of an Interest Determination Period, the annualized interest rate for the related interest period will not be more than the rate that is applicable to that period.

§ You are willing to have your notes called prior to maturity on any interest payment date occurring on or after September     , 2015.

§ You seek exposure to the Index with no expectation of dividends or other benefits of owning the stocks included in the Index.

§ You are willing to accept that the payments on the notes depend on our creditworthiness, as the issuer of the notes.

The notes may not be an appropriate investment for you if:

§ You anticipate that the Index will not be above the Reference Index Level after the first year of the term of the notes often enough to provide you with your desired return.

§ You seek an investment with a guaranteed interest rate applicable to each quarterly interest period after the first year of the term of the notes, or one that is not limited to the rate that is applicable to that period.

§ You are not willing to have your notes called prior to maturity.

§ You want to receive dividends or other distributions paid on the stocks included in the Index.

TS-4

Other Provisions

We may deliver the notes against payment therefor in New York, New York on a date that is greater than three business days following the pricing date. Under Rule 15c6-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in three business days, unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, if the initial settlement of the notes occurs more than three business days from the pricing date, purchasers who wish to trade the notes more than three business days prior to the original issue date will be required to specify alternative settlement arrangements to prevent a failed settlement.

If you place an order to purchase the notes, you are consenting to MLPF&S acting as a principal in effecting the transaction for your account.

Supplement to the Plan of Distribution

MLPF&S, a broker-dealer subsidiary of BAC, is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (formerly the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. (the “NASD”)) and will participate as selling agent in the distribution of the notes. Accordingly, offerings of the notes will conform to the requirements of NASD Rule 2720. Under our distribution agreement with MLPF&S, MLPF&S will purchase the notes from us on the issue date as principal at the purchase price indicated on the cover of this term sheet, less the indicated underwriting discount. MLPF&S will not receive an underwriting discount for notes sold to certain fee-based trusts and fee-based discretionary accounts managed by U.S. Trust operating through Bank of America, N.A. In the original offering of the notes, the notes will be sold in minimum investment amounts of 100 units.

MLPF&S may use this Note Prospectus for offers and sales in secondary market transactions and market-making transactions in the notes but is not obligated to engage in such secondary market transactions and/or market-making transactions. MLPF&S may act as principal or agent in these transactions, and any such sales will be made at prices related to prevailing market prices at the time of the sale.

The Index

All disclosures contained in this term sheet regarding the Index, including, without limitation, its make up, method of calculation, and changes in its components, have been derived from publicly available sources. The information reflects the policies of, and is subject to change by, S&P. S&P, which owns the copyright and all other rights to the Index, has no obligation to continue to publish, and may discontinue publication of, the Index. The consequences of S&P discontinuing publication of the Index are discussed in the section beginning on page S-24 of product supplement RANGE-1 entitled “Description of the Notes—Discontinuance of an Index.” None of us, the calculation agent, or the selling agent accepts any responsibility for the calculation, maintenance, or publication of the Index or any successor index.

“Standard & Poor’s^®”, “Standard & Poor’s 500^TM”, “S&P 500^®”, and “S&P^®” are trademarks of S&P and have been licensed for use in this offering by our subsidiary, MLPF&S. The notes are not sponsored, endorsed, sold, or promoted by S&P, and S&P makes no representation regarding the advisability of investing in the notes.

The Index is intended to provide an indication of the pattern of common stock price movement. The calculation of the level of the Index is based on the relative value of the aggregate market value of the common stocks of 500 companies as of a particular time compared to the aggregate average market value of the common stocks of 500 similar companies during the base period of the years 1941 through 1943. As of July 30, 2010, 404 companies included in the Index traded on the New York Stock Exchange, and 96 companies included in the Index traded on The NASDAQ Stock Market. On July 30, 2010, the average market capitalization of the companies included in the Index was $19.94 billion. As of that date, the largest component of the Index had a market capitalization of $305.09 billion, and the smallest component of the Index had a market capitalization of $1.02 billion.

S&P chooses companies for inclusion in the Index with the aim of achieving a distribution by broad industry groupings that approximates the distribution of these groupings in the common stock population of its Stock Guide Database of over 10,000 companies, which S&P uses as an assumed model for the composition of the total market. Relevant criteria employed by S&P include the viability of the particular company, the extent to which that company represents the industry group to which it is assigned, the extent to which the market price of that company’s common stock generally is responsive to changes in the affairs of the respective industry, and the market value and trading activity of the common stock of that company. Ten main groups of companies constitute the Index, with the approximate percentage of the market capitalization of the Index included in each group as of July 30, 2010 indicated in parentheses: Consumer Discretionary (10.20%); Consumer Staples (11.41%); Energy (10.87%); Financials (16.45%); Health Care (11.37%); Industrials (10.64%); Information Technology (18.79%); Materials (3.55%); Telecommunication Services (3.03%); and Utilities (3.69%). S&P from time to time, in its sole discretion, may add companies to, or delete companies from, the Index to achieve the objectives stated above.

S&P calculates the Index by reference to the prices of the constituent stocks of the Index without taking account of the value of dividends paid on those stocks. The return on the notes will not reflect the return you would realize if you actually owned the Index constituent stocks and received the dividends paid on those stocks.

Computation of the Index

While S&P currently employs the following methodology to calculate the Index, no assurance can be given that S&P will not modify or change this methodology in a manner that may affect the amount of interest payable on the notes.

Historically, the market value of any component stock of the Index was calculated as the product of the market price per share and the number of then outstanding shares of such component stock. In March 2005, S&P began shifting the Index halfway from a market capitalization weighted formula to a float-adjusted formula, before moving the Index to full float adjustment on September 16, 2005. S&P’s criteria for selecting stocks for the Index did not change with the shift to float adjustment. However, the adjustment affects each company’s weight in the Index.

Under float adjustment, the share counts used in calculating the Index reflect only those shares that are available to investors, not all of a company’s outstanding shares. S&P defines three groups of shareholders whose holdings are subject to float adjustment:

• holdings by other publicly traded corporations, venture capital firms, private equity firms, strategic partners, or leveraged buyout groups;

• holdings by government entities, including all levels of government in the U.S. or foreign countries; and

• holdings by current or former officers and directors of the company, founders of the company, or family trusts of officers, directors, or founders, as well as holdings of trusts, foundations, pension funds, employee stock ownership plans, or other investment vehicles associated with and controlled by the company.

However, treasury stock, stock options, restricted shares, equity participation units, warrants, preferred stock, convertible stock, and rights are not part of the float. In cases where holdings in a group exceed 10% of the outstanding shares of a company, the holdings of that group are excluded from the float-adjusted count of shares to be used in the index calculation. Mutual funds, investment advisory firms, pension funds, or foundations not associated with the company and investment funds in insurance companies, shares of a U.S. company traded in Canada as “exchangeable shares,” shares that trust beneficiaries may buy or sell without difficulty or significant additional expense beyond typical brokerage fees, and, if a company has multiple classes of stock outstanding, shares in an unlisted or non-traded class if such shares are convertible by shareholders without undue delay and cost, are also part of the float.

TS-6

For each stock, an investable weight factor (“IWF”) is calculated by dividing the available float shares, defined as the total shares outstanding less shares held in one or more of the three groups listed above where the group holdings exceed 10% of the outstanding shares, by the total shares outstanding. The float-adjusted index is then calculated by multiplying, for each stock in the Index, the IWF, the price, and total number of shares outstanding, adding together the resulting amounts, and then dividing that sum by the index divisor. For companies with multiple classes of stock, S&P calculates the weighted average IWF for each stock using the proportion of the total company market capitalization of each share class as weights.

The Index is calculated using a base-weighted aggregate methodology. The level of the Index reflects the total market value of all 500 component stocks relative to the base period of the years 1941 through 1943. An indexed number is used to represent the results of this calculation in order to make the level easier to work with and track over time. The actual total market value of the component stocks during the base period of the years 1941 through 1943 has been set to an indexed level of 10. This is often indicated by the notation 1941-43 = 10. In practice, the daily calculation of the Index is computed by dividing the total market value of the component stocks by the “index divisor.” By itself, the index divisor is an arbitrary number. However, in the context of the calculation of the Index, it serves as a link to the original base period level of the Index. The index divisor keeps the Index comparable over time and is the manipulation point for all adjustments to the Index, which is index maintenance.

Index Maintenance

Index maintenance includes monitoring and completing the adjustments for company additions and deletions, share changes, stock splits, stock dividends, and stock price adjustments due to company restructuring or spinoffs. Some corporate actions, such as stock splits and stock dividends, require changes in the common shares outstanding and the stock prices of the companies in the Index, and do not require index divisor adjustments.

To prevent the level of the Index from changing due to corporate actions, corporate actions which affect the total market value of the Index require an index divisor adjustment. By adjusting the index divisor for the change in market value, the level of the Index remains constant and does not reflect the corporate actions of individual companies in the Index. Index divisor adjustments are made after the close of trading and after the calculation of the Index closing level.

Changes in a company’s shares outstanding of 5.00% or more due to mergers, acquisitions, public offerings, tender offers, Dutch auctions, or exchange offers are made as soon as reasonably possible. All other changes of 5.00% or more (due to, for example, company stock repurchases, private placements, redemptions, exercise of options, warrants, conversion of preferred stock, notes, debt, equity participation units, at the market offerings, or other recapitalizations) are made weekly and are announced on Wednesdays for implementation after the close of trading on the following Wednesday. Changes of less than 5.00% due to a company’s acquisition of another company in the Index are made as soon as reasonably possible. All other changes of less than 5.00% are accumulated and made quarterly on the third Friday of March, June, September, and December, and are usually announced two to five days prior.

Changes in IWFs of more than ten percentage points caused by corporate actions (such as merger and acquisition activity, restructurings, or spinoffs) will be made as soon as reasonably possible. Other changes in IWFs will be made annually when IWFs are reviewed.

The following table sets forth the month-end levels of the Index obtained from Bloomberg L.P. for the period from January 2005 through July 2010.

The following graph sets forth the monthly historical performance of the Index for the period from January 2005 through July 2010. On July 30, 2010, the closing level of the Index was 1,101.60. The dotted horizontal line illustrates a hypothetical Reference Index Level of 903.31, which is 82% (the mid-point of 77% and 87%) of 1,101.60. The actual Reference Index Level will be determined on the pricing date of the notes.

The historical data on the Index presented above is not necessarily indicative of the future performance of the Index or what the value of the notes may be. The historical data sets forth only month-end levels of the Index. Interest accruing on the notes is determined in reference to daily levels of the Index. Any month-end trend in the level of the Index is not necessarily indicative of the intra-month trends. Furthermore, any historical upward or downward trend in the level of the Index during any period set forth above is not an indication that the level of the Index is more or less likely to increase or decrease at any time over the term of the notes.

Before investing in the notes, you should consult publicly available sources for the levels and trading pattern of the Index. The generally unsettled international environment and related uncertainties, including the risk of terrorism, may result in the Index and financial markets generally exhibiting greater volatility than in earlier periods.

Certain U.S. Federal Income Taxation Considerations

Set forth below is a summary of certain U.S. federal income tax considerations relating to an investment in the notes. The following summary is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by the discussion under the section entitled “U.S. Federal Income Tax Summary” beginning on page S-27 of product supplement RANGE-1, which you should carefully review prior to investing in the notes. For purposes of that discussion, we intend to take the position that the notes will be treated as “contingent payment debt instruments” for U.S. federal income tax purposes, subject to taxation under the “noncontingent bond method,” and the balance of this discussion assumes that this characterization is proper and will be respected. Capitalized terms used and not defined herein have the meanings ascribed to them in product supplement RANGE-1.

Under this characterization, the notes generally will be subject to the Treasury regulations governing contingent payment debt instruments. Under those regulations, a U.S. Holder will be required to report OID or interest income based on a “comparable yield” and a “projected payment schedule,” established by us for determining interest accruals and adjustments with respect to a note. A U.S. Holder who does not use the “comparable yield” and follow the “projected payment schedule” to calculate its OID and interest income on a note must timely disclose and justify the use of other estimates to the IRS.

A U.S. Holder will be required to recognize interest income equal to the amount of any “positive adjustment” for a note for the taxable year in which a contingent payment is paid (including a payment of interest at maturity). A positive adjustment is the excess of actual payments in respect of contingent payments over the projected amount of contingent payments. A U.S. Holder also will be required to account for any “negative adjustment” for a taxable year in which a contingent payment is paid. A negative adjustment is the excess of the projected amounts of contingent payments over actual payments in respect of the contingent payments. A net negative adjustment is the amount by which total negative adjustments in a taxable year exceed total positive adjustments in such taxable year. A net negative adjustment (1) will first reduce the amount of interest for the note that a U.S. Holder would otherwise be required to include in income in the taxable year, and (2) to the extent of any excess, will result in an ordinary loss equal to that portion of the excess as does not exceed the excess of (A) the amount of all previous interest inclusions under the note over (B) the total amount of the U.S. Holder’s net negative adjustments treated as ordinary loss on the note in prior taxable years. A net negative adjustment is not subject to the 2% floor limitation imposed on miscellaneous deductions under Section 67 of the Code. Any net negative adjustment in excess of the amounts described above in (1) and (2) will be carried forward to offset future interest income on the note or to reduce the amount realized on a sale, exchange, or redemption of the note and, in the case of a payment at maturity, should result in a capital loss. The deductibility of capital losses by a U.S. Holder is subject to limitations.

The following table assumes an expected issue date of October 1, 2010 and maturity date of September 30, 2020 for the notes and is based upon a hypothetical projected payment schedule and a hypothetical comparable yield equal to 4.78% per annum (compounded semi-annually), that we established for the notes, and shows the amounts of ordinary income from a note that an initial U.S. Holder that holds the note until maturity and pays taxes on a calendar year basis should be required to report each calendar year. The following tables are for illustrative purposes only. The actual tables will be completed on the pricing date and included in the final term sheet.

Accrual Period	Interest Deemed to Accrue During Accrual Period (per $1,000 principal amount  per unit of the Notes)	Total Interest Deemed to Have Accrued from Original Issue Date (per $1,000  principal amount per unit of the Notes)
October 1, 2010 through December 31, 2010	$11.82	$11.82
January 1, 2011 through December 31, 2011	$47.52	$59.34
January 1, 2012 through December 31, 2012	$47.24	$106.58
January 1, 2013 through December 31, 2013	$47.30	$153.87
January 1, 2014 through December 31, 2014	$47.36	$201.23
January 1, 2015 through December 31, 2015	$47.42	$248.64
January 1, 2016 through December 31, 2016	$47.48	$296.12
January 1, 2017 through December 31, 2017	$47.54	$343.66
January 1, 2018 through December 31, 2018	$47.62	$391.27
January 1, 2019 through December 31, 2019	$47.68	$438.95
January 1, 2020 through September 30, 2020	$35.78	$474.73

In addition, we have determined the hypothetical projected payment schedule for the notes as follows:

Taxable Year	Payment on March 30	Payment on June 30	Payment on September 30	Payment on December 30
2010				$14.83
2011	$15.00	$15.00	$15.00	$11.53
2012	$11.53	$11.53	$11.53	$11.53
2013	$11.53	$11.53	$11.53	$11.53
2014	$11.53	$11.53	$11.53	$11.53
2015	$11.53	$11.53	$11.53	$11.53
2016	$11.53	$11.53	$11.53	$11.53
2017	$11.53	$11.53	$11.53	$11.53
2018	$11.53	$11.53	$11.53	$11.53
2019	$11.53	$11.53	$11.53	$11.53
2020	$11.53	$11.53	$1,011.53

You should be aware that these amounts are not calculated or provided for any purposes other than the determination of a U.S. Holder’s interest accruals and adjustments with respect to the notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes. By providing the table above and the projected payment schedule, we make no representations regarding the actual amounts of interest payments on the notes after the first four quarterly interest periods.

TS-9

Upon a sale, exchange, or redemption of a note prior to maturity, a U.S. Holder generally will recognize taxable gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount realized on the sale, exchange, or redemption and the holder’s tax basis in the notes. A U.S. Holder’s tax basis in a note generally will equal the cost of that note, increased by the amount of OID previously accrued by the holder for that note (without regard to any positive or negative adjustments under the contingent payment debt regulations), and decreased by the amount of any projected payments for previous periods on the note. A U.S. Holder generally will treat any gain as interest income, and will treat any loss as ordinary loss to the extent of the excess of previous interest inclusions over the total negative adjustments previously taken into account as ordinary losses, and the balance as long-term or short-term capital loss depending upon the U.S. Holder’s holding period for the note.

You should consult your own tax advisor concerning the U.S. federal income tax consequences to you of acquiring, owning, and disposing of the notes, as well as any tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, local, foreign, or other tax jurisdiction and the possible effects of changes in U.S. federal or other tax laws. See the discussion under the section entitled “U.S. Federal Income Tax Summary” beginning on page S-27 of product supplement RANGE-1.

Structured Investments Classification

MLPF&S classifies certain structured investments (the “Structured Investments”), including the notes, into four categories, each with different investment characteristics. The description below is intended to briefly describe the four categories of Structured Investments offered: Principal Protection, Enhanced Income, Market Participation, and Enhanced Participation. A Structured Investment may, however, combine characteristics that are relevant to one or more of the other categories. As such, a category should not be relied upon as a description of any particular Structured Investment.

Principal Protection: Principal Protected Structured Investments offer full or partial principal protection against decreases in the value of the underlying market measure (or increases in the value of an underlying market measure for bearish Structured Investments), while offering market exposure and the opportunity for a better return than may be available from comparable fixed income securities. Principal protection may not be achieved if the investment is sold prior to maturity.

Enhanced Income: Structured Investments offering enhanced income may offer an enhanced income stream through interim fixed or variable coupon payments. However, in exchange for receiving current income, investors may forfeit upside potential on the underlying asset. These investments generally do not include the principal protection feature.

Market Participation: Market Participation Structured Investments can offer investors exposure to specific market sectors, asset classes, and/or strategies that may not be readily available through traditional investment alternatives. Returns obtained from these investments are tied to the performance of the underlying asset. As such, subject to certain fees, the returns will generally reflect any increases or decreases in the value of such assets. These investments generally do not include the principal protection feature.

Enhanced Participation: Enhanced Participation Structured Investments may offer investors the potential to receive better than market returns on the performance of the underlying asset. Some structures may offer leverage in exchange for a capped or limited upside potential and also in exchange for downside risk. These investments generally do not include the principal protection feature.

The classification of Structured Investments is meant solely for informational purposes and is not intended to fully describe any particular Structured Investment nor guarantee any particular performance.
