Summary
The Currency Market Index Target-Term Securities® Linked to the Japanese yen per U.S. dollar Exchange Rate Measure, due September 5, 2012 (the MITTS) are our senior unsecured debt securities and are not guaranteed or insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or secured by collateral. The MITTS will rank equally with all of our other unsecured and unsubordinated debt, and any payments due on the MITTS, including any repayment of principal, will be subject to the credit risk of BAC. The MITTS provide investors with a 241.28% participation rate in increases in the level of the Exchange Rate Measure, from the Starting Value, as determined on February 26, 2009, the pricing date, to the Ending Value, as determined on a calculation day shortly before the maturity date. The Exchange Rate Measure will increase if the value of the Japanese yen depreciates relative to the U.S. dollar over the term of the MITTS, such that the exchange rate described below increases. The Exchange Rate Measure will decrease if the value of the Japanese yen appreciates relative to the U.S. dollar over the term of the MITTS, such that the exchange rate decreases. Investors should be of the view that the value of the Japanese yen will depreciate relative to the U.S. dollar over the term of the MITTS, and must be willing to forgo interest payments on the MITTS.
Capitalized terms used but not defined in this term sheet have the meanings set forth in product supplement MITTS-1.

Other Provisions
We will deliver the MITTS against payment therefor in New York, New York on a date that is greater than three business days following the pricing date. Under Rule 15c6-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in three business days, unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade MITTS more than three business days prior to the original issue date will be required to specify alternative settlement arrangements to prevent a failed settlement.
If you place an order to purchase these offered securities, you are consenting to each of MLPF&S, its broker-dealer affiliate First Republic, and BAI acting as a principal in effecting the transaction for your account. MLPF&S, First Republic, and BAI are acting as underwriters and/or selling agents for this offering and will receive underwriting compensation from BAC.
Supplement to the Plan of Distribution
MLPF&S, First Republic, and BAI, each a broker-dealer subsidiary of BAC, are members of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (formerly the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc. (the NASD)) and will participate in the distribution of the MITTS. Accordingly, offerings of the MITTS will conform to the requirements of NASD Rule 2720. MLPF&S and First Republic will purchase MITTS as principal, while BAI will use its best efforts to sell the MITTS. In the original offering of the MITTS, the MITTS will be sold in minimum investment amounts of 100 units.
MLPF&S, First Republic, and BAI may use this Note Prospectus for offers and sales in secondary market transactions and market-making transactions in the MITTS but are not obliged to engage in such secondary market transactions and/or market-making transactions. MLPF&S, First Republic, and BAI may act as principal or agent in these transactions, and any such sales will be made at prices related to prevailing market prices at the time of the sale.
TS-6
Exchange Rate Measure
The Exchange Rate Measure tracks the value of an investment in the Japanese yen value of one U.S. dollar.
The MITTS are designed to allow investors to participate in the movements in the Exchange Rate Measure over the term of the MITTS. The Exchange Rate Measure tracks the value of an investment in the exchange rate. The exchange rate is expressed as the number of Japanese yen for which one U.S. dollar can be exchanged, as reported by Reuters on page WMRSPOT12 under MID or any substitute page thereto, at approximately 4:00 p.m., London time. The exchange rate increases as the value of the Japanese yen depreciates relative to the U.S. dollar, and the exchange rate decreases as the value of the Japanese yen appreciates relative to the U.S. dollar. As such, the Exchange Rate Measure, and hence the Redemption Amount, will increase if the value of the Japanese yen depreciates relative to the U.S. dollar, and the Exchange Rate Measure will decrease if the value of Japanese yen appreciates relative to the U.S. dollar.
If the exchange rate is not so quoted on Reuters page WMRSPOT12 or any substitute pages thereto, then the exchange rate used to determine the Exchange Rate Measure will be calculated on the basis of the arithmetic mean of the applicable spot quotations received by the calculation agent at approximately 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the calculation day by three leading banks engaged in the interbank market (selected in the sole discretion of the calculation agent) (the Reference Banks). If fewer than three Reference Banks provide spot quotations, then the exchange rate will be calculated on the basis of the arithmetic mean of the applicable spot quotations received by the calculation agent at approximately 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the calculation day from two leading commercial banks in New York (selected in the sole discretion of the calculation agent), for the purchase or sale for deposits in the relevant currencies. If these spot quotations are available from only one bank, then the calculation agent, in its sole discretion, will determine which quotation is available and reasonable to be used. If no spot quotation is available, then the exchange rate will be the rate the calculation agent, in its sole discretion, determines to be fair and reasonable under the circumstances at approximately 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the calculation day.
The following graph sets forth the monthly historical performance of the exchange rate as reported by Bloomberg L.P. in the period from January 2003 through January 2009. This historical data on the exchange rate is not necessarily indicative of the future performance of the exchange rate or what the value of the MITTS may be. Any historical upward or downward trend in the level of the exchange rate during any period set forth below is not an indication that the exchange rate is more or less likely to increase or decrease at any time over the term of the MITTS. On the pricing date, the exchange rate, as reported by Reuters on page WMRSPOT12 under MID, was 98.4450 Japanese yen per one U.S. dollar (rounded to four decimal places).

Summary Tax Consequences
You should consider the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the MITTS, including the following:
| Although there are no statutory provisions, regulations, published rulings, or judicial decisions addressing the characterization, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, of the MITTS, we intend to treat the MITTS as debt instruments for U.S. federal income tax purposes and, where required, intend to file information returns with the IRS in accordance with such treatment. |
| A U.S. Holder will be required to report OID or interest income based on a comparable yield with respect to a MITTS without regard to cash, if any, received on the MITTS. |
| Upon a sale, exchange, or retirement of a MITTS prior to maturity, a U.S. Holder generally will recognize taxable gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount realized on the sale, exchange, or retirement and the holders tax basis in the MITTS. A U.S. Holder generally will treat any gain as ordinary interest income, and any loss as ordinary up to the amount of previously accrued OID and then as capital loss. At maturity, (i) if the actual Redemption Amount exceeds the projected Redemption Amount, a U.S. Holder must include such excess as interest income, or (ii) if the projected Redemption Amount exceeds the actual Redemption Amount, a U.S. Holder will generally treat such excess first as an offset to previously accrued OID for the taxable year, then as an ordinary loss to the extent of all prior OID inclusions, and thereafter as a capital loss. |
Certain U.S. Federal Income Taxation Considerations
Set forth below is a summary of certain U.S. federal income tax considerations relating to an investment in the MITTS. The following summary is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by the discussion under the section entitled U.S. Federal Income Tax Summary in product supplement MITTS-1, which you should carefully review prior to investing in the MITTS. Capitalized terms used and not defined herein have the meanings ascribed to them in product supplement MITTS-1.
General. There are no statutory provisions, regulations, published rulings, or judicial decisions addressing the characterization, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, of MITTS or other instruments with terms substantially the same as the MITTS. However, although the matter is not free from doubt, under current law, each MITTS should be treated as a debt instrument for U.S. federal income tax purposes. We currently intend to treat the MITTS as debt instruments for U.S. federal income tax purposes and, where required, intend to file information returns with the IRS in accordance with such treatment, in the absence of any change or clarification in the law, by regulation or otherwise, requiring a different characterization of the MITTS. You should be aware, however, that the IRS is not bound by our characterization of the MITTS as indebtedness and the IRS could possibly take a different position as to the proper characterization of the MITTS for U.S. federal income tax purposes. If the MITTS are not in fact treated as debt instruments for U.S. federal income tax purposes, then the U.S. federal income tax treatment of the purchase, ownership, and disposition of the MITTS could differ materially from the treatment discussed below, with the result that the timing and character of income, gain, or loss recognized in respect of a MITTS could differ materially from the timing and character of income, gain, or loss recognized in respect of a MITTS had the MITTS in fact been treated as debt instruments for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Accordingly, prospective purchasers are urged to consult their own tax advisors regarding the tax consequences of investing in the MITTS. The following summary assumes that the MITTS will be treated as debt instruments of BAC for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
Interest Accruals. The amount payable on the MITTS at maturity will depend on the performance of the Exchange Rate Measure. We intend to take the position that the denomination currency (as defined in the applicable Treasury regulations) of the MITTS is the U.S. dollar and accordingly, we intend to take the position that the MITTS will be treated as contingent payment debt instruments for U.S. federal income tax purposes, subject to taxation under the noncontingent bond method, and the balance of this discussion assumes that this characterization is proper and will be respected. Under this characterization, the MITTS generally will be subject to the Treasury regulations governing contingent payment debt instruments. Under those regulations, a U.S. Holder will be required to report OID or interest income based on a comparable yield and a projected payment schedule, established by us for determining interest accruals and adjustments with respect to a MITTS. A U.S. Holder who does not use the comparable yield and follow the projected payment schedule to calculate its OID and interest income on a MITTS must timely disclose and justify the use of other estimates to the IRS.
Sale, Exchange, or Retirement of the MITTS. Upon a sale, exchange, or retirement of a MITTS prior to maturity, a U.S. Holder generally will recognize taxable gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount realized on the sale, exchange, or retirement and the holders tax basis in the MITTS. A U.S. Holders tax basis in a MITTS generally will equal the cost of that MITTS, increased by the amount of OID previously accrued by the holder for that MITTS (without regard to any positive or negative adjustments under the contingent payment debt regulations). A U.S. Holder generally will treat any gain as interest income, and will treat any loss as ordinary loss to the extent of the excess of previous interest inclusions over the total negative adjustments previously taken into account as ordinary losses, and the balance as long-term or short-term capital loss depending upon the U.S. Holders holding period for the MITTS. At maturity, (i) if the actual Redemption Amount exceeds the projected Redemption Amount, a U.S. Holder must include such excess as interest income, or (ii) if the projected Redemption Amount exceeds the actual Redemption Amount, a U.S. Holder will generally treat such excess first as an offset to previously accrued OID for the taxable year, then as an ordinary loss to the extent of all prior OID inclusions, and thereafter as a capital loss. The deductibility of capital losses by a U.S. Holder is subject to limitations.
Tax Accrual Table. The following table is based upon a projected payment schedule (including a projection for tax purposes of the Redemption Amount) and a comparable yield equal to 4.32% per annum (compounded annually), that we established for the MITTS. The table reflects the expected issuance of the notes on March 5, 2009 and the scheduled maturity date of September 5, 2012. The projected payment schedule is based upon a principal amount of $10 per MITTS, and includes a projected Redemption Amount of $11.5954 at maturity. This information is provided solely for tax purposes and we make no representations or predictions as to what the actual Redemption Amount will be.

Structured Investments Classification
MLPF&S classifies certain structured investments (the Structured Investments), including the MITTS, into four categories, each with different investment characteristics. The description below is intended to briefly describe the four categories of Structured Investments offered: Principal Protection, Enhanced Income, Market Participation and Enhanced Participation. A Structured Investment may, however, combine characteristics that are relevant to one or more of the other categories. As such, a category should not be relied upon as a description of any particular Structured Investment.
Principal Protection: Principal Protected Structured Investments offer full or partial principal protection at maturity, while offering market exposure and the opportunity for a better return than may be available from comparable fixed income securities. Principal protection may not be achieved if the investment is sold prior to maturity.
Enhanced Income: Structured Investments offering enhanced income may offer an enhanced income stream through interim fixed or variable coupon payments. However, in exchange for receiving current income, investors may forfeit upside potential on the underlying asset. These investments generally do not include the principal protection feature.
Market Participation: Market Participation Structured Investments can offer investors exposure to specific market sectors, asset classes and/or strategies that may not be readily available through traditional investment alternatives. Returns obtained from these investments are tied to the performance of the underlying asset. As such, subject to certain fees, the returns will generally reflect any increases or decreases in the value of such assets. These investments are not structured to include the principal protection feature.
Enhanced Participation: Enhanced Participation Structured Investments may offer investors the potential to receive better than market returns on the performance of the underlying asset. Some structures may offer leverage in exchange for a capped or limited upside potential and also in exchange for downside risk. These investments are not structured to include the principal protection feature.
The classification of Structured Investments is meant solely for informational purposes and is not intended to fully describe any particular Structured Investment nor guarantee any particular performance.
