Terms of the Notes

The Contingent Income Auto-Callable Yield Notes Linked to the common stock of Apple Inc. (the “Notes”) provide a quarterly Contingent Coupon Payment of at least $26.625 on the applicable Contingent Payment Date if, on any quarterly Observation Date, the Observation Value of each Underlying Stock is greater than or equal to its Coupon Barrier. The coupon per $1,000 in principal amount of the Note payable on the related Contingent Payment Date will equal (i) the product of at least $26.625 times the number of Contingent Payment Dates that have occurred up to the relevant Contingent Payment Date (inclusive of the relevant Contingent Payment Date) minus (ii) the sum of all Contingent Coupon Payments previously paid. The actual contingent coupon rate will be determined on the pricing date. Beginning in January 2024, if the Observation Value of the Underlying Stock is greater than or equal to 100% of its Starting Value on any applicable quarterly Observation Date (other than the final Observation Date), the Note will be automatically called, in whole but not in part, at an amount equal to 100% of the principal amount, together with the relevant Contingent Coupon Payment. No further amounts will be payable following an Automatic Call. If the Note is not automatically called, at maturity you will receive the Redemption Amount, calculated as described under “Redemption Amount Determination”.

Risk Factors

·Your investment may result in a loss; there is no guaranteed return of principal.
·Your return on the Notes is limited to the return represented by the Contingent Coupon Payments, if any, over the term of the Notes.
·The Contingent Coupon Payment, Early Redemption Amount or Redemption Amount, as applicable, will not reflect changes in the price of the Underlying Stock other than on the Observation Dates.
·The Notes are subject to a potential Automatic Call, which would limit your ability to receive the Contingent Coupon Payments over the full term of the Notes.
·You may not receive any Contingent Coupon Payments and the Notes do not provide for any regular fixed coupon payments.
·Your return on the Notes may be less than the yield on a conventional debt security of comparable maturity.
·Any payments on the Notes are subject to our credit risk and the credit risk of the Guarantor, and any actual or perceived changes in our or the Guarantor’s creditworthiness are expected to affect the value of the Notes.
·The public offering price you pay for the Notes will exceed their initial estimated value.
·We cannot assure you that a trading market for your Notes will ever develop or be maintained.
