Automatic Call:
If the closing price of one share of each Reference Stock on the
Review Date is greater than or equal to its Call Value, the notes
will be automatically called for a cash payment, for each $1,000
principal amount note, equal to (a) $1,000 plus (b) the Call
Premium Amount, payable on the Call Settlement Date. No
further payments will be made on the notes.
If the notes are automatically called, you will not benefit from
the Upside Leverage Factor that applies to the payment at
maturity if the Final Value of each Reference Stock is greater
than its Initial Value or the absolute return feature that applies to
the payment at maturity if the Final Value of the Lesser
Performing Reference Stock is equal to or less than its Initial
Value but greater than or equal to its Barrier Amount. Because
the Upside Leverage Factor and the absolute return feature do
not apply to the payment upon an automatic call, the payment
upon an automatic call may be significantly less than the
payment at maturity for the same level of change in the Lesser
Performing Reference Stock.
Payment at Maturity:
If the notes have not been automatically called and the Final
Value of each Reference Stock is greater than its Initial Value,
your payment at maturity per $1,000 principal amount note will
be calculated as follows:
$1,000 + ($1,000 × Lesser Performing Stock Return × Upside
Leverage Factor)
If the notes have not been automatically called and the Final
Value of either Reference Stock is equal to or less than its Initial
Value but the Final Value of each Reference Stock is greater
than or equal to its Barrier Amount, your payment at maturity
per $1,000 principal amount note will be calculated as follows:
$1,000 + ($1,000 × Absolute Stock Return of the Lesser
Performing Reference Stock)
This payout formula results in an effective cap of 40.00% on
your return at maturity if the Lesser Performing Stock Return is
negative. Under these limited circumstances, your maximum
payment at maturity is $1,400.00 per $1,000 principal amount
note.
If the notes have not been automatically called and the Final
Value of either Reference Stock is less than its Barrier Amount,
your payment at maturity per $1,000 principal amount note will
be calculated as follows:
$1,000 + ($1,000 × Lesser Performing Stock Return)
If the notes have not been automatically called and the Final
Value of either Reference Stock is less than its Barrier Amount,
you will lose more than 40.00% of your principal amount at
maturity and could lose all of your principal amount at maturity.
Absolute Stock Return: With respect to each Reference
Stock, the absolute value of its Stock Return. For example, if
the Stock Return of a Reference Stock is -5%, its Absolute
Stock Return will equal 5%.
Lesser Performing Reference Stock: The Reference Stock
with the Lesser Performing Stock Return
Lesser Performing Stock Return: The lower of the Stock
Returns of the Reference Stocks
Stock Return:
With respect to each Reference Stock,
(Final Value – Initial Value)
Initial Value
Initial Value: With respect to each Reference Stock, the closing
price of one share of that Reference Stock on the Pricing Date,
as specified under “Key Terms Relating to the Reference
Stocks” in this pricing supplement
Final Value: With respect to each Reference Stock, the closing
price of one share of that Reference Stock on the Observation
Date
Stock Adjustment Factor: With respect to each Reference
Stock, the Stock Adjustment Factor is referenced in determining
the closing price of one share of that Reference Stock and is set
equal to 1.0 on the Pricing Date. The Stock Adjustment Factor
of each Reference Stock is subject to adjustment upon the
occurrence of certain corporate events affecting that Reference
Stock. See “The Underlyings — Reference Stocks — Anti-
Dilution Adjustments” and “The Underlyings — Reference
Stocks — Reorganization Events” in the accompanying product
supplement for further information.
