Hypothetical Payout Profile (Maturity Payment Amount)

If the securities are not automatically called prior to stated maturity and the ending level is less than the downside threshold level, you will have 1-to-1 downside exposure to the decrease in the level of the basket in excess of the buffer amount and will lose some, and possibly up to 80%, of the face amount of your securities at stated maturity.
Any return on the securities will be limited to the sum of your contingent coupon payments, if any. You will not participate in any appreciation of the basket, but you will have 1-to-1 downside exposure to the decrease in the level of the basket in excess of the buffer amount if the ending level is less than the downside threshold level.
