This document does not provide all of the information that an investor should consider prior to making an investment decision. You should not invest in the PLUS without reading the accompanying preliminary pricing supplement and related documents for a more detailed description of the underlying index (including historical index closing values), the terms of the PLUS and certain risks.
The amount that you will be paid on your PLUS on the stated maturity date is based on the performance of the EURO STOXX 50® Index as measured from the pricing date to and including the valuation date.
If the final index value is greater than the initial index value (set on the pricing date), the return on your PLUS will be positive and equal to the product of the leverage factor of 200% multiplied by the index percent increase, subject to the maximum payment at maturity of at least $1,337.00 (set on the pricing date) per PLUS.
If the final index value is less than the initial index value but has not decreased by more than the buffer amount of 15.00% of the initial index value, you will receive the principal amount of your PLUS. However, if the final index value has decreased from the initial index value by more than the buffer amount, you will lose 1% for every 1% decline beyond the buffer amount, subject to the minimum payment at maturity of 15.00% of the stated principal amount.
The PLUS are for investors who seek the potential to earn 200% of any positive return of the underlying index, subject to the maximum payment at maturity, are willing to forgo interest payments and are willing to risk losing up to 85.00% of their investment if the final index value has declined from the initial index value by more than the buffer amount.
