Terms of the Notes
The Contingent Income Issuer Callable Yield Notes Linked to the Least Performing of the Dow Jones Industrial Average®, MSCI Emerging Markets® Index and the Russell 2000® Index (the “Notes”) provide a quarterly Contingent Coupon Payment of at least $30.00 on the applicable Contingent Payment Date if, on any quarterly Observation Date, the Observation Value of each Underlying is greater than or equal to its Coupon Barrier. The actual Contingent Coupon Payment will be determined on the pricing date. Beginning on May 3, 2024, and on each quarterly Call Date thereafter, we have the right to redeem all, but not less than all, of the Notes at 100% of the principal amount, together with the relevant Contingent Coupon Payment. No further amounts will be payable following an Optional Early Redemption. If the Notes are not 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 Notes are subject to Optional Early Redemption. |
| · | 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. |
| · | The Contingent Coupon Payment, Early Redemption Amount or Redemption Amount, as applicable, will not reflect the levels of the Underlyings other than on the Observation Dates. |
| · | Because the Notes are linked to the least performing (and not the average performance) of the Underlyings, you may not receive any return on the Notes and may lose a significant portion or all of your principal amount even if the Observation Value or Ending Value of one Underlying is always greater than or equal to its Coupon Barrier or Threshold Value, as applicable. |
| · | Any payment on the Notes is subject to the credit risk of BofA Finance and the Guarantor, and actual or perceived changes in BofA Finance’s 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. |
| · | The Notes are subject to risks associated with small-size capitalization companies. |
| · | The Notes are subject to risks associated with foreign securities markets. |
| · | The Notes are subject to a foreign currency exchange risk. |
| · | There are risks associated with emerging markets. |
