Hypothetical Payout Profile***

***assumes a call premium equal to the lowest possible call premium that will be determined on the pricing date.

If the securities are not automatically called and the ending level of the lowest performing Index on the final calculation day is less than its threshold level, you will have full downside exposure to the decrease in the level of the lowest performing Index on the final calculation day from its starting level and lose more than 30%, and possibly all, of the face amount of your securities at maturity.

Any positive return on the securities will be limited to the applicable call premium, even if the closing level of the lowest performing Index on the applicable call date significantly exceeds its starting level. You will not participate in any appreciation of any Index beyond the applicable call premium.

The estimated initial value of the securities on the pricing date is expected to be between $930.00 and $970.00 per security, which will be less than the original offering price. The market value of the securities at any time will reflect many factors and cannot be predicted with accuracy. See “Terms of the Securities—Estimated Initial Value” in the accompanying free writing prospectus.
