Insights
Auto-call structure trades capped early returns versus uncapped maturity payoff.
The notes offer 100.00% participation in positive Index performance at maturity but include an automatic call feature that pays predetermined Call Premium Amounts on specified Review Dates. The step-up Call Values require the Index to exceed increasing thresholds to trigger early calls.
The primary dependencies are the Index level at each Review Date, the occurrence (or not) of a commodity hedging disruption event and the issuer's credit. Secondary-market liquidity is likely limited and prices may be materially below original issue price.
Notes are treated as contingent payment debt instruments for U.S. federal tax purposes.
Special tax counsel concluded the notes should be taxed as contingent payment debt instruments with a comparable yield of 4.59 and a projected payment of $1,254.87 per $1,000 for accrual purposes. OID accrual schedule is provided in the supplement.
Section 871(m) analysis led the issuer to conclude withholding should not apply to Non-U.S. Holders, but the IRS could disagree; purchasers should consult tax advisers about withholding and OID timing.
