About Your Securities |
The securities do not bear interest. The amount that you will be paid on your securities on the stated maturity date is based on the performance of the S&P 500® Index as measured from the pricing date to and including the valuation date.
At maturity, if the final index value is greater than or equal to the initial index value (set on the pricing date), the return on your securities will be equal to the index percent change, subject to the maximum payment at maturity of at least $1,320.00 per security (set on the pricing date). However, if the final index value is less than the initial index value, you will lose 1% for every 1% decline of the final index value from the initial index value, subject to the minimum payment at maturity of 95.00% of the stated principal amount. You may lose up to 5% of the stated principal amount of the securities.
The securities are for investors who seek the potential to earn any positive return of the index, subject to the maximum payment at maturity, are willing to forgo interest payments and are willing to risk losing up to 5% of their investment if the final index value has declined from the initial index value.
