Summary

The Accelerated Return Notes^® Linked to the NYSE Arca Gold Miners Index due October 25, 2013 (the “notes”) are our senior unsecured debt securities. The notes are not guaranteed or insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or secured by collateral. The notes will rank equally with all of our other unsecured and unsubordinated debt. Any payments due on the notes, including any repayment of principal, will be subject to the credit risk of BAC. The notes provide you a leveraged return, subject to a cap, if the Ending Value (as determined below) of the NYSE Arca Gold Miners Index (the “Index”) is greater than the Starting Value. If the Ending Value is less than the Starting Value, you will lose all or a portion of the principal amount of your notes.

The terms and risks of the notes are contained in this term sheet and the documents listed below (together, the “Note Prospectus”). The documents have been filed as part of a registration statement with the SEC, which may, without cost, be accessed on the SEC website as indicated below or obtained from MLPF&S by calling 1-866-500-5408:

Hypothetical Payments at Maturity

The following table and examples are for purposes of illustration only. They are based on hypothetical values and show hypothetical returns on the notes. The actual amount you receive and the resulting total rate of return will depend on the actual Starting Value, Ending Value, and term of your investment.

The following table is based on a Starting Value of 100, the Participation Rate of 300%, and the Capped Value of $13.345 per unit. It illustrates the effect of a range of Ending Values on the Redemption Amount per unit of the notes and the total rate of return to holders of the notes. The following examples do not take into account any tax consequences from investing in the notes.

For recent actual levels of the Market Measure, see “The Index” section below. The Index is a price return index and as such the Ending Value will not include any income generated by dividends paid on the stocks included in the Index, which you would otherwise be entitled to receive if you invested in those stocks directly. In addition, all payments on the notes are subject to issuer credit risk.

Redemption Amount Calculation Examples

Example 1

The Ending Value is 80.00, or 80.00% of the Starting Value:

Risk Factors

There are important differences between the notes and a conventional debt security. An investment in the notes involves significant risks, including those listed below. You should carefully review the more detailed explanation of risks relating to the notes in the “Risk Factors” sections beginning on page S-10 of product supplement ARN-4, page S-5 of the MTN prospectus supplement, and page 8 of the prospectus identified above under “Summary.” We also urge you to consult your investment, legal, tax, accounting, and other advisors before you invest in the notes.

Accelerated Return Notes® Linked to the NYSE Arca Gold Miners Index, due October 25, 2013

Additional Risk Factors

All of the securities included in the Index are concentrated in one industry.

All of the securities included in the Index are issued by companies in the gold and silver mining industry. As a result, the securities that will determine the performance of the notes are concentrated in one industry. Although an investment in the notes will not give holders any ownership or other direct interests in the securities included in the Index, the return on an investment in the notes will be subject to certain risks similar to those associated with direct equity investments in the gold and silver mining industry. Accordingly, by investing in the notes, you will not benefit from the diversification which could result from an investment linked to companies that operate in multiple sectors.

A limited number of Index Components may affect its level and the Index is not necessarily representative of the gold and silver mining industry.

As of July 31, 2012, the top three Index Components constituted 37.55% of the total weight of the Index and the top six Index Components constituted 53.31% of the total weight of the Index. Any reduction in the market price of those securities is likely to have a substantial adverse impact on the level of the Index and the value of the notes.

While the securities included in the Index are common stocks and American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”) of companies generally considered to be involved in various segments of the gold and silver mining industry, the securities included in the Index may not follow the price movements of the entire gold and silver mining industry generally. If the securities included in the Index decline in value, the Index will decline in value even if security prices in the gold and silver mining industry generally increase in value.

There is no direct correlation between the value of the notes or the level of the Index, on the one hand, and gold and silver prices, on the other hand.

Although the price of gold or silver is one factor that may influence the performance of the securities underlying the Index, the notes are not linked to the gold or silver spot prices or to gold or silver futures. There is no direct linkage between the level of the Index and the prices of gold and silver. While gold and silver prices may be one factor that could affect the prices of the securities included in the Index and, consequently, the level of the Index, the notes and the Redemption Amount are not directly linked to the movement of gold and silver prices and may be affected by factors unrelated to those movements. Investing in the notes is not the same as investing in gold or silver, and you should not invest in the notes if you wish to invest in a product that is linked directly to the price of gold or silver.

NYSE Arca, Inc. (“NYSE Arca”) the sponsor and compiler of the Index, retains significant control and discretionary decision-making over the Index and is responsible for decisions regarding the interpretation of and amendments to the Index rules, which may have an adverse effect on the level of the Index, the market value of the notes and the Redemption Amount on the maturity date.

NYSE Arca is the compiler of the Index and, as such, is responsible for the day-to-day management of the Index and for decisions regarding the interpretation of the rules governing the Index. NYSE Arca has the discretion to make operational adjustments to the Index and to the Index components, including discretion to exclude companies that otherwise meet the minimum criteria for inclusion in the Index. In addition, NYSE Arca retains the power to supplement, amend in whole or in part, revise or withdraw the Index rules at any time, any of which may lead to changes in the way the Index is compiled or calculated or adversely affect the Index in another way. Any of these adjustments to the Index or the Index rules may adversely affect the level of the Index, the market value of the notes and the Redemption Amount on the maturity date. The Index sponsor has no obligation to take the needs of any buyer, seller or holder of the notes into consideration at any time.

The performance of the securities underlying the Index may be influenced by gold and silver prices.

To the extent the price of gold or silver has a limited effect, if any, on the prices of the securities included in the Index, gold prices and silver prices are subject to volatile price movements over short periods of time, represent trading in commodities markets, which are substantially different from equities markets, and are affected by numerous factors. These include economic factors, including the structure of and confidence in the global monetary system, expectations of the future rate of inflation, the relative strength of, and confidence in, the U.S. dollar (the currency in which the prices of gold and silver are generally quoted), interest rates and gold and silver borrowing and lending rates, and global or regional economic, financial, political, regulatory, judicial, or other events.

Gold prices and silver prices may also be affected by industry factors such as industrial and jewelry demand, lending, sales and purchases of gold and silver by the official sector, including central banks and other governmental agencies and multilateral institutions which hold gold and silver, levels of gold and silver production and production costs, and short-term changes in supply and demand because of trading activities in the gold and silver markets. It is not possible to predict the aggregate effects of all or any combination of these factors.

The Index

All disclosures contained in this term sheet regarding the Index, including, without limitation, its make up, method of calculation, and changes in its components, have been derived from publicly available sources, including http://www.nyse.com/about/listed/lcddata.html?ticker=GDM, http://indices.nyx.com/sites/indices.nyx.com/files/gdm_rule_book_v1.1.pdf and http://www.amex.com/othProd/prodInf/OpPiIndComp.jsp?Product_Symbol=GDM.

We are not incorporating by reference these websites or any material included on those websites in this term sheet. The information reflects the policies of, and is subject to change by, NYSE Arca, the sponsor of the Index. NYSE Arca, which owns the copyright and all other rights to the Index, has no obligation to continue to publish, and may discontinue publication of, the Index. The consequences of NYSE Arca discontinuing publication of the Index are discussed in the section of product supplement ARN-4 beginning on page S-38 entitled “Description of ARNs — Discontinuance of a Market Measure”. None of us, the calculation agent, or MLPF&S accepts any responsibility for the calculation, maintenance, or publication of the Index or any successor index.

The Index is a modified market capitalization weighted index comprised of securities issued by publicly traded companies involved primarily in the mining of gold or silver. The Index was initially launched and published in October 2004.

Eligibility Criteria for Index Components

The Index includes common stocks or ADRs of selected companies that are involved in mining for gold and silver and that are listed for trading on the New York Stock Exchange, the NYSE Amex Stock Exchange or quoted on the NASDAQ Global Market. Only companies with a market capitalization of greater than $100 million that have an average daily trading volume of at least 50,000 shares or ADRs over the past six months are eligible for inclusion in the Index. NYSE Arca has the discretion to not include all companies that meet the minimum criteria for inclusion.

Calculation of the Index

The Index is calculated by NYSE Arca on a price return basis. The calculation is based on the current modified market capitalization divided by a divisor. The divisor was determined on the initial capitalization base of the Index and the base level and may be adjusted as a result of corporate actions and composition changes, as described below. The level of the Index was set at 500.00 on December 20, 2002 which is the index base date. The Index is calculated using the following formula:

Where:

t = day of calculation;

N = number of constituent equities in the Index;

Qi,t = number of shares of equity i on day t;

Mi,t = multiplier of equity i;

Ci,t = price of equity i on day t; and

DIV = current index divisor on day t.

Index Maintenance

The Index is reviewed quarterly to ensure that at least 90% of the Index weight is accounted for by Index components that continue to meet the initial eligibility requirements. NYSE Arca may at any time and from time to time change the number of securities comprising the group by adding or deleting one or more securities, or replacing one or more securities contained in the group with one or more substitute securities of its choice, if in NYSE Arca’s discretion such addition, deletion or substitution is necessary or appropriate to maintain the quality and/or character of the Index. Components will be removed from the Index during the quarterly review if the market capitalization falls below $50 million or the traded average daily shares for the previous six months is lower than 25,000 shares.

At the time of the quarterly rebalance, the component security weights (also referred to as the multiplier or share weight of each component security) will be modified to conform to the following asset diversification requirements:

The weights of the components securities (taking into account expected component changes and share adjustments) are modified in accordance with the Index’s diversification rules.

Accelerated Return Notes® Linked to the NYSE Arca Gold Miners Index, due October 25, 2013

Diversification Rule 1: If any component stock exceeds 20% of the total value of the Index, then all stocks greater than 20% of the Index are reduced to represent 20% of the value of the Index. The aggregate amount by which all component stocks are reduced is redistributed proportionately across the remaining stocks that represent less than 20% of the Index value. After this redistribution, if any other stock then exceeds 20%, the stock is set to 20% of the Index value and the redistribution is repeated.

Diversification Rule 2: The components are sorted into two groups, large are components with a starting index weight of 5% or greater and small are those that are under 5% (after any adjustments for Diversification Rule 1). Each group in aggregate will represent 50% of the final index weight. The weight of each of the large stocks will be scaled down proportionately (with a floor of 5%) so that the aggregate weight of the large components will be reduced to represent 50% of the Index. If any large component stock falls below a weight equal to the product of 5% and the proportion by which the stocks were scaled down following this distribution, then the weight of the stock is set equal to 5% and the components with weights greater than 5% will be reduced proportionately. The weight of each of the small components will be scaled up proportionately from the redistribution of the large components. If any small component stock exceeds a weight equal to the product of 4.5% and the proportion by which the stocks were scaled down following this distribution, then the weight of the stock is set equal to 4.5%. The redistribution of weight to the remaining stocks is repeated until the entire amount has been redistributed.

Changes to the Index composition and/or the component security weights in the Index are determined and announced prior to taking effect, which typically occurs after the close of trading on the third Friday of each calendar quarter month in connection with the quarterly Index rebalance. The share weight of each component security in the Index portfolio remains fixed between quarterly reviews except in the event of certain types of corporate actions such as stock splits, reverse stock splits, stock dividends, or similar events. The share weights used in the Index calculation are not typically adjusted for shares issued or repurchased between quarterly reviews. However, in the event of a merger between two components, the share weight of the surviving entity may be adjusted to account for any stock issued in the acquisition. NYSE Arca may substitute securities or change the number of securities included in the Index, based on changing conditions in the industry or in the event of certain types of corporate actions, including mergers, acquisitions, spin-offs, and reorganizations. In the event of component or share weight changes to the Index portfolio, the payment of dividends other than ordinary cash dividends, spin-offs, rights offerings, re-capitalization, or other corporate actions affecting a component security of the Index, the Index divisor may be adjusted to ensure that there are no changes to the Index level as a result of nonmarket forces.

Index Weight of Each Index Component

As of July 31, 2012, the Index included 30 companies. The following table presents the Index weight for each of the Index components based on publicly available information on July 31, 2012.

Accelerated Return Notes® Linked to the NYSE Arca Gold Miners Index, due October 25, 2013

The following graph shows the monthly historical performance of the Index in the period from January 2007 through July 2012. We obtained this historical data from Bloomberg L.P.

This historical data on the Index is not necessarily indicative of the future performance of the Index or what the value of the notes may be. Any historical upward or downward trend in the level of the Index during any period set forth above is not an indication that the level of the Index is more or less likely to increase or decrease at any time over the term of the notes.

Before investing in the notes, you should consult publicly available sources for the levels and trading pattern of the Index.

Supplement to the Plan of Distribution

We will deliver the notes 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 the notes more than three business days prior to the original issue date will be required to specify alternative settlement arrangements to prevent a failed settlement.

The notes will not be listed on any securities exchange. In the original offering of the notes, the notes will be sold in minimum investment amounts of 100 units.

If you place an order to purchase the notes, you are consenting to MLPF&S acting as a principal in effecting the transaction for your account.

MLPF&S may repurchase and resell the notes, with repurchases and resales being made at prices related to then-prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices. MLPF&S may act as principal or agent in these market-making transactions; however it is not obligated to engage in any such transactions.

Role of MLPF&S and Conflicts of Interest

MLPF&S, a broker-dealer subsidiary of BAC, is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (“FINRA”) and will participate as selling agent in the distribution of the notes. Accordingly, offerings of the notes will conform to the requirements of Rule 5121 applicable to FINRA members. MLPF&S may not make sales in this offering to any of its discretionary accounts without the prior written approval of the account holder.

Under our distribution agreement with MLPF&S, MLPF&S will purchase the notes from us as principal at the public offering price indicated on the cover of this term sheet, less the indicated underwriting discount. The public offering price includes, in addition to the underwriting discount, a charge of approximately $0.075 per unit, reflecting an estimated profit earned by MLPF&S from transactions through which the notes are structured and resulting obligations hedged. Actual profits or losses from these hedging transactions may be more or less than this amount. In entering into the hedging arrangements for the notes, we seek competitive terms and may enter into hedging transactions with MLPF&S or another of our affiliates.

All charges related to the notes, including the underwriting discount and the hedging related costs and charges, reduce the economic terms of the notes. For further information regarding these charges, our trading and hedging activities and conflicts of interest, see “Risk Factors—General Risks Relating to ARNs” beginning on page S-10 and “Use of Proceeds” on page S-22 of product supplement ARN-4.

Summary Tax Consequences

You should consult your own tax advisor concerning the U.S. federal income tax consequences to you of acquiring, owning, and disposing of the notes, as well as any tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, local, foreign, or other tax jurisdiction and the possible effects of changes in U.S. federal or other tax laws. You should review carefully the discussion under the section entitled “U.S. Federal Income Tax Summary” beginning on page S-45 of product supplement ARN-4.

Validity of the Notes

In the opinion of McGuireWoods LLP, as counsel to BAC, when the trustee has made an appropriate entry on Schedule 1 to the Master Registered Global Senior Note, dated March 30, 2012 (the “Master Note”) identifying the notes offered hereby as supplemental obligations thereunder in accordance with the instructions of BAC, and the notes have been delivered against payment therefor as contemplated in this Note Prospectus, all in accordance with the provisions of the Senior Indenture, such notes will be legal, valid and binding obligations of BAC, subject to applicable bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance or other similar laws affecting the rights of creditors now or hereafter in effect, and to equitable principles that may limit the right to specific enforcement of remedies, and further subject to 12 U.S.C. §1818(b)(6)(D) (or any successor statute) and any bank regulatory powers now or hereafter in effect and to the application of principles of public policy.

Market-Linked Investments Classification

MLPF&S classifies certain market-linked investments (the “Market-Linked Investments”) into categories, each with different investment characteristics. The following description is meant solely for informational purposes and is not intended to represent any particular Enhanced Return Market-Linked Investment or guarantee any performance.

Enhanced Return Market-Linked Investments are short- to medium-term investments that offer you a way to enhance exposure to a particular market view without taking on a similarly enhanced level of market downside risk. They can be especially effective in a flat to moderately positive market (or, in the case of bearish investments, a flat to moderately negative market). In exchange for the potential to receive better-than market returns on the linked asset, you must generally accept market downside risk and capped upside potential. As these investments are not market downside protected, and do not assure full repayment of principal at maturity, you need to be prepared for the possibility that you may lose all or part of your investment.
