     About Your Securities

    

The amount that you will be paid on your securities is based on the performance of the common stock of Amazon.com, Inc. The securities will mature on the stated maturity date unless they are automatically called on any call observation date. If the final share price is greater than or equal to the downside threshold price, you will receive your $1,000 principal amount of your securities plus a coupon payment. You will not participate in any appreciation of the underlying stock. If the final share price is less than the downside threshold price, you will not receive a coupon payment and you will lose a significant portion or all of your investment.

Your securities will be automatically called if the closing price of the underlying stock on any call observation date is greater than or equal to the initial share price, resulting in a payment on the corresponding call payment date equal to the principal amount of your securities plus the contingent quarterly coupon (defined below) then due.

The securities will not pay a fixed coupon and may pay no coupon on a coupon payment date. On each coupon observation date, subject to the automatic call feature, if the closing price of the underlying stock is greater than or equal to the downside threshold price, you will receive on the corresponding coupon payment date a contingent quarterly coupon payment. If the closing price of the underlying stock on any coupon observation date is less than the downside threshold price, you will not receive a coupon payment on the applicable coupon payment date.

The securities are for investors who seek to earn a coupon at an above current market rate in exchange for the risk of receiving few or no contingent quarterly coupons and the risk of losing all or a portion of the principal of their securities.
