You should read the relevant Preliminary Offering Documents before you invest. Click on the Preliminary Offering Documents hyperlink above or call your Financial Advisor for a hard copy. Risk Factors Please see the Preliminary Offering Documents for a description of certain risks related to this investment, including, but not limited to, the following: ● Depending on the performance of the Market Measure as measured shortly before the maturity date, your investment may result in a loss; there is no guaranteed return of principal. ● Payments on the notes are subject to the credit risk of BofA Finance and the credit risk of BAC, and actual or perceived changes in the creditworthiness of BofA Finance or BAC are expected to affect the value of the notes. If BofA Finance and BAC become insolvent or are unable to pay their respective obligations, you may lose your entire investment. ● Your investment return is limited to the return represented by the Capped Value and may be less than a comparable investment directly in the Market Measure or the stocks held by the Market Measure. ● The initial estimated value of the notes on the pricing date will be less than their public offering price. ● If you attempt to sell the notes prior to maturity, their market value may be lower than both the public offering price and the initial estimated value of the notes on the pricing date. ● You will have no rights of a holder of the Market Measure or the securities held by the Market Measure, and you will not be entitled to receive securities or dividends or other distributions by the issuers of those securities. ● There are liquidity and management risks associated with the Underlying Fund. ● All of the securities held by the Underlying Fund are concentrated in one industry. ● A limited number of securities may affect the level of the Underlying Index, and the Underlying Index is not necessarily representative of the gold and silver mining industry. ● The notes will be subject to risks associated with small-capitalization or mid-capitalization companies. ● The performance of the Underlying Fund may not correlate with the performance of its underlying index as well as the net asset value per share of the Underlying Fund, especially during periods of market volatility. ● There is no direct correlation between the value of the notes or the price of the Underlying Fund, on the one hand, and gold and silver prices, on the other hand. ● The sponsor of the NYSE Arca Gold Miners Index, which is the underlying index of the Underlying Fund, may adjust such underlying index in a way that affects its level, and has no obligation to consider your interests. ● The performance of the Underlying Fund may be influenced by gold and silver prices. ● The sponsor and investment advisor of the Underlying Fund may adjust the Underlying Fund in a way that could adversely affect the value of the notes and the amount payable on the notes, and these entities have no obligation to consider your interests. Final terms will be set on the pricing date within the given range for the specified Market-Linked Investment.
