Dear Client,

Thank you for your interest in Market-Linked Investments (“MLI”). Merrill Lynch has created the MLI Performance Summary to provide transparency regarding the historical performance of regularly-issued types of MLIs which have matured or been automatically redeemed over the last ten years. These results are displayed on a deal-by-deal basis, to provide you the ability to consider how these investments performed relative to the performance of the underlying linked asset. The summary is organized by MLI product type, with product performance summaries at the end of each respective section.

When used as a complement to traditional investments (e.g., mutual funds, ETFs, individual securities, professional money managers, etc.) within core asset classes, MLIs may deliver significant value as a way to mitigate downside investment risk in volatile markets, enhance asset class performance in low return markets, or a combination of both.

We hope that this MLI Performance Summary helps promote understanding of MLI performance in a variety of market environments over the past ten years. This presentation is historical and is provided for informational and educational purposes only. Past performance may not be indicative of future performance.

We encourage you to read the entire summary, including the methodology, important considerations and risk factors that are set forth in the summary. And before investing in any MLI, you should consult with your financial advisor and you should carefully read the related prospectus or other offering document, including the risk factors, to determine if that investment is right for you given your investment objectives, need for liquidity and other factors.

OVERVIEW

THE PURPOSE OF THIS PERFORMANCE SUMMARY is to illustrate the performance of Market-Linked Investments (“MLIs”) when compared to the assets to which they are linked (“Linked Assets”). This performance summary includes 661 MLIs, issued by Bank of America Corporation, Merrill Lynch & Co., Inc., or a third party issuer, which have matured or have been automatically redeemed between September 20, 2002 and December 31, 2011.

For a variety of reasons, as described in more detail in the “Risk Factors” section of this document, prior results, including the results illustrated in this document, are not necessarily indicative of the performance of any MLI that you may purchase in the future. This Performance Summary is not intended to provide the sole basis for evaluating, and should not be considered a recommendation with respect to, any MLI, any transaction or any other matter, and it is not indicative of the future performance of any MLI. As in the case of any investment, you should carefully review the applicable prospectus or offering documents before making an investment decision.

 

 

The following methodology was used as the basis of this Performance Summary:

    
   

¡    661 MLIs, issued by Bank of America Corporation, Merrill Lynch & Co., Inc., or a third party issuer, which have matured or were automatically redeemed  between September 20, 2002 and December 31, 2011, are included in this summary.

    

 

¡    MLIs are grouped by Product Type.

 

    

 

Product Types

   Linked Asset Types     

 

Eight different Product Types were selected: ARNs®, Bear ARNs®, LIRNs®, CLIRNs®, STARS®, Bear STARS®, MITTS® and STEPS®.

  

 

Three different Linked Asset Types were selected: Equity, Commodity and Currency. Please note that each of these Linked Asset Classes may perform differently when linked to different Product Types.

    
   

For each respective group:

       

 

¡    The “Average Linked Asset Return” is equal to the simple arithmetic average of the annualized returns of the Linked Assets for the MLI issuances in that  group. In instances where the MLI reflects a bearish strategy, the “Average Strategy Return” is assumed to reflect a bearish position in the Linked Asset.

    

 

¡    The “Average MLI Return” is equal to the simple arithmetic average of the annualized returns for the MLIs included in that group and does not reflect the  principal amount of each MLI.

    

 

¡    The “Average MLI Outperformance / Underperformance” equals the “Average MLI Return” minus the “Average Linked Asset Return” for that group.

    

 

¡    The “% of Offerings Where MLI Underperforms Linked Asset” is the percentage of the offerings where the MLI had a lower return than the Linked Asset.

    

 

¡    The “% of Offerings Where Performance is Equal” is the percentage of the offerings where the MLI had a return equal to that of the Linked Asset.

    

 

¡    The “% of Offerings Where MLI Outperformed Linked Asset” is the percentage of the offerings where the MLI had a higher return than the Linked Asset.

    
   

Please note that the outperformance and underperformance figures represent only comparisons against the Linked Asset and are not in any way an indication of absolute positive or negative performance by the MLI.

Important Considerations

 

¡    The product performance summary tables on the following pages set forth the average performance of a large number of MLIs. Because these amounts reflect the average performance of the indicated offerings, a significant number of MLIs performed worse than these averages.

 

¡    MLIs that were redeemed or called early and would have matured according to their terms after December 31, 2011 were included in this summary. This factor may introduce upward or downward bias to the Average MLI Return.

 

¡    Returns for MLIs that were outstanding for more than one year are annualized.

 

¡    All MLI Returns are calculated pre-tax.

 

¡    Returns are not asset weighted. Therefore, the returns on each MLI count equally in determining the average MLI return, without regard to the aggregate principal amount of each issuance.

 

¡    The Linked Asset for each MLI is the index, basket, equity, commodity or currency referenced by the MLI. The Linked Asset Returns do not include dividends paid on the Linked Asset. Such dividends would increase the return on the Linked Asset and decrease any outperformance. In some cases, the inclusion of dividends in the return on a Linked Asset would cause it to outperform the MLI, and not to underperform the MLI.

 

¡    If the MLI pays periodic interest payments or coupons, then those payments or coupons are included in the MLI Return.

 

¡    The MITTS® Product Type includes MLIs that were not named MITTS® but are included in the MITTS® Product Type because they included a significant market downside protection feature.

 

¡    The returns on the MLIs reflect the underwriting compensation and other fees that are included in the terms of the MLIs.

 

¡    A wide variety of MLIs may be offered in the future. The performance of MLIs offered in the future is unlikely to be the same as the MLIs issued in the past. Accordingly, the results demonstrated in the performance tables may improve, or become worse, over time.

 

¡    The Product Types do not include all MLIs types that have been offered historically. Additionally, MLIs based on interest rates or inflation measures are not included in this summary.

 

¡    There are MLIs that have been offered that have not matured or been redeemed as of the date of this document. You may contact a Merrill Lynch Financial Advisor to learn more about the performance of MLI offerings that are not included in this document.

Risk Factors

The actual performance of any MLI that you may purchase is likely to vary, perhaps significantly, from the historical results illustrated in this document. This is due to a variety of factors, including:

 

  ¡  

Historical performance of the Linked Assets for MLIs that Merrill Lynch has previously offered is not indicative of the future performance.

 

  ¡  

MLIs that you purchase may have different economic terms, terms to maturity and other differing features.

 

  ¡  

As a holder of the MLIs, you will be subject to the credit risk of the applicable issuer, and may receive little or no payment on your MLIs if the issuer becomes insolvent during the term of the MLI.

 

  ¡  

As a holder of the MLIs, you will be subject to applicable tax laws, which may change in the future, and which may reduce your returns. You should evaluate the credit risk of the issuer of the applicable MLI.

Investors in MLIs are subject to a variety of risks relating to the terms of the relevant investment. You should review the applicable offering documents for a more complete description of these risks. These risks include, among others:

 

  ¡  

Investors may not earn a return on their investment, and any return may be less than the return on an investment in the relevant Linked Asset.

 

  ¡  

Depending on the terms of your MLI, the amount owed to you at maturity may be less than the principal amount.

 

  ¡  

The return on your MLI may be lower than that of other debt securities issued by the same issuer with a comparable maturity, and may not be sufficient to compensate you for other factors, such as inflation, that affect the time value of money.

 

  ¡  

The return on your MLI may be limited by a cap, and will not reflect the return on a direct investment in the asset or the components included in the Linked Asset.

 

  ¡  

A trading market for MLIs is not expected to develop, and the secondary market price investors may receive or be quoted for their MLIs prior to the maturity date will be affected by this and other important factors. The price paid for the MLIs in secondary market transactions may be lower than the original offering price.

 

  ¡  

Many factors will affect the trading value of the MLIs; these factors interrelate in complex ways and the effect of one factor may offset or magnify the effect of another factor.

 

  ¡  

Purchases or sales of the Linked Asset or its components by the issuer, Merrill Lynch and their respective affiliates may affect the return.

 

  ¡  

Potential conflicts of interest between the issuer, Merrill Lynch and their respective affiliates, on the one hand, and investors in the MLIs, on the other hand, could arise.

This Performance Summary is intended for informational purposes only and is not intended to provide the basis for evaluating, and should not be considered a recommendation with respect to, any transaction or other matter. This Performance Summary should not be considered an indication of likely or possible future returns on MLIs.

Footnotes:

 

(1) Returns are calculated on an annualized basis where the term is greater than one year, and returns are not annualized when the term is one year or less.
(2) The Linked Asset Returns do not include dividends paid on the Linked Asset. Such dividends would increase the return on the Linked Asset, and decrease any outperformance. In some cases, the inclusion of dividends in the return on a Linked Asset would cause it to outperform the MLI, and not to underperform the MLI.
(3) In instances where the MLI reflects a bearish strategy, the Strategy Return is assumed to reflect a bearish position in the Linked Asset.
(4) Where the note was automatically redeemed prior to maturity, the term set forth in this column gives effect to the redemption.
