A Knock-Out Event occurs if the closing price of one share of the Index Fund on the Observation Date (i.e., the Final Share Price) is less than the Initial Share Price by more than the Knock-Out Buffer Amount. For the avoidance of doubt, the notes are subject to monitoring on a single Monitoring Day (i.e., the Observation Date). |

If a Knock-Out Event has occurred, you will lose more than 25.00% of your initial investment and may lose all of your initial investment at maturity. |

If a Knock-Out Event has not occurred, you will receive a cash payment at maturity that will reflect the performance of the Index Fund, subject to the Contingent Minimum Return and the Maximum Return. If a Knock-Out Event has not occurred, your payment at maturity per $1,000 principal amount note will equal $1,000 plus the product of (a) $1,000 and (b) the greater of (i) the Contingent Minimum Return and (ii) the Share Return, subject to the Maximum Return. For additional clarification, please see What Is the Total Return on the Notes at Maturity, Assuming a Range of Performances for the Index Fund? in this term sheet. |

What Is the Total Return on the Notes at Maturity, Assuming a Range of Performances for the Index Fund?
The following table illustrates the hypothetical total return at maturity on the notes.

The hypothetical total returns set forth below assume an Initial Share Price of $60.00, a Contingent Minimum Return of 10.00% and a Maximum Return of 21.50% and reflect the Knock-Out Buffer Amount of 25.00%.

Hypothetical Examples of Amounts Payable at Maturity
The following examples illustrate how the total returns set forth in the table above are calculated.
Example 1: The closing price of one share of the Index Fund increases from the Initial Share Price of $60.00 to a Final Share Price of $61.50 a Knock-Out Event has not occurred. Because the Share Return of 2.50% is less than the hypothetical Contingent Minimum Return of 10.00%, the investor receives a payment at maturity of $1,100 per $1,000 principal amount note.
Example 2: The closing price of one share of the Index Fund decreases from the Initial Share Price of $60.00 to a Final Share Price of $57.00 a Knock-Out Event has not occurred. Because the Share Return of -5% is less than the hypothetical Contingent Minimum Return of 10.00%, the investor receives a payment at maturity of $1,100 per $1,000 principal amount note.
Example 3: The closing price of one share of the Index Fund increases from the Initial Share Price of $60.00 to a Final Share Price of $69.00 a Knock-Out Event has not occurred. Because the Share Return of 15% is greater than the hypothetical Contingent Minimum Return of 10.00% but less than the hypothetical Maximum Return of 21.50%, the investor receives a payment at maturity of $1,150 per $1,000 principal amount note, calculated as follows:
$1,000 + ($1,000 × 15%) = $1,150
Example 4: The closing price of one share of the Index Fund decreases from the Initial Share Price of $60.00 to a Final Share Price of $36.00 a Knock-Out Event has occurred. Because the Final Share Price of $36.00 is less than the Initial Share

Price of $60.00 by more than the Knock-Out Buffer Amount of 25.00%, a Knock-Out Event has occurred and because the Share Return is -40%, the investor receives a payment at maturity of $600 per $1,000 principal amount note, calculated as follows:
$1,000 + ($1,000 × -40%) = $600
Example 5: The closing price of one share of the Index Fund increases from the Initial Share Price of $60.00 to a Final Share Price of $90.00 a Knock-Out Event has not occurred. Because the Share Return of 50% is greater than the hypothetical Maximum Return of 21.50%, the investor receives a payment at maturity of $1,215 per $1,000 principal amount note, the hypothetical maximum payment on the notes.
The hypothetical returns and hypothetical payouts on the notes shown above do not reflect fees or expenses that would be associated with any sale in the secondary market. If these fees and expenses were included, the hypothetical returns and hypothetical payouts shown above would likely be lower.
