* Each valuation date is subject to postponement if such date is not a scheduled trading day or certain market disruption events occur, as described in the accompanying product supplement. Each potential redemption date is subject to postponement on the same basis as a valuation date. ** If the valuation date immediately preceding any contingent coupon payment date (other than the final valuation date) is postponed, that contingent coupon payment date will also be postponed so that it falls on the third business day after such valuation date, as postponed. | |
| Maturity date: | Unless earlier automatically redeemed, April 29, 2027 |
| Contingent coupon: | On each quarterly contingent coupon payment date, unless previously automatically redeemed, the securities will pay a contingent coupon equal to 2.80% of the stated principal amount of the securities (11.20% per annum) if and only if the closing level of the worst performing underlying index on the related valuation date is greater than or equal to its downside threshold level. If the closing level of the worst performing underlying index on any quarterly valuation date is less than its downside threshold level, you will not receive any contingent coupon payment on the related contingent coupon payment date. |
| Payment at maturity1: |
If the securities are not automatically redeemed prior to maturity, for each $1,000 stated principal amount security you hold at maturity, you will receive cash in an amount determined as follows: · If the final index level of the worst performing underlying index on the final valuation date is greater than or equal to its downside threshold level: $1,000 + the contingent coupon payment due at maturity · If the final index level of the worst performing underlying index on the final valuation date is less than its downside threshold level: $1,000 + ($1,000 × the index return of the worst performing underlying index on the final valuation date) If the final index level of the worst performing underlying index on the final valuation date is less than its downside threshold level, you will receive less, and possibly significantly less, than 75.00% of the stated principal amount of your securities at maturity, and you will not receive any contingent coupon payment at maturity. |
| Automatic early redemption: | If, on any potential redemption date, the closing level of the worst performing underlying index on that date is greater than or equal to its initial index level, each security you then hold will be automatically redeemed on the related contingent coupon payment date for an amount in cash equal to the early redemption payment. If the securities are redeemed, no further payments will be made. |
| Early redemption payment: | The stated principal amount of $1,000 per security plus the related contingent coupon payment |
| Initial index level: | For each underlying index, its closing level on the pricing date |
| Final index level: | For each underlying index, its closing level on the final valuation date |
| Downside threshold level: | For each underlying index, 75.00% of its initial index level |
| Index return: | For each underlying index on any valuation date or potential redemption date, (i) its closing level on that valuation date or potential redemption date minus its initial index level, divided by (ii) its initial index level |
