Unlike ordinary debt Securities, the Securities do not pay interest, do not repay a fixed amount of principal at maturity and are subject to potential automatic call upon the terms described below. Any return you receive on the Securities and whether they are automatically called will depend on the performance of the Underlying

|
Automatic Call. If the closing level of the Underlying on any Observation Date is greater than or equal to the Starting Value, the Securities will be automatically called, and on the related Call Settlement Date, you will receive the principal amount plus the Call Premium applicable to that Observation Date. The Call Premium applicable to each Observation Date will be a percentage of the principal amount that increases for each Observation Date based on a simple (non-compounding) return of at least 7.25% per annum (to be determined on the pricing date)
