This document does not provide all of the information that an investor should consider prior to making an investment decision. You should not invest in the securities without reading the accompanying preliminary pricing supplement and related documents for a more detailed description of the underlying indexes (including historical index closing values), the terms of the securities and certain risks.
About Your Securities |
The amount that you will be paid on your securities is based on the performance of the worst performing of the S&P 500® Index, the Russell 2000® Index and the EURO STOXX 50® Index. The securities may be automatically called on any call observation date.
Your securities will be automatically called if the index closing value of each underlying index on any call observation date is greater than or equal to its initial index value (set on the pricing date), resulting in a payment on the applicable call payment date equal to (i) the principal amount of your securities plus (ii) such principal amount times the call premium amount applicable to such call observation date. No payments will be made after the call payment date.
At maturity, if not previously not previously called, (i) if the final index value of each underlying index on the valuation date is greater than or equal to its initial index value, the return on your securities will be positive and equal to at least 62.50% (set on the pricing date); or (ii) if the final index value of any underlying index on the valuation date is less than its initial index value but the final index value of each underlying index is greater than or equal to its downside threshold level, you will receive the principal amount of your securities; or (iii) if the final index value of any underlying index is less than its downside threshold level, you will receive a payment at maturity based on the performance of the underlying index with the lowest index performance factor. You will not participate in any appreciation of the underlying indexes. If the final index value of each underlying index is less than the downside threshold level, you will lose a significant portion or all of your investment.
The securities are for investors who seek a return of between at least 12.50% and at least 62.50%, depending on if and when the securities are automatically called, in exchange for the risk of losing all or a significant portion of the principal amount of their securities if the securities remain outstanding to maturity.
