Insights
Auto-call structure balances defined step-up call premiums with index upside at maturity.
The notes offer tiered call premiums of $80, $160, $240 and $320 per $1,000 on successive Review Dates and a 100.00% participation rate at maturity if not called. Automatic calls occur only if the Index meets progressively higher Call Values, potentially truncating exposure to later larger index gains.
The primary dependencies are the Index level relative to the Call Values and the issuer/guarantor creditworthiness. Holders forgo interest and face limited liquidity; secondary market prices will likely be below original issue price due to embedded costs and commissions.
Notes are treated as contingent payment debt instruments for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
Special tax counsel opinions state the notes should be taxed as contingent payment debt instruments, requiring accrual of original issue discount using a 4.55% comparable yield and a projected payment of $1,252.28 per $1,000. Accrued OID schedules are provided for each calendar period.
Tax treatment affects timing of income recognition on sale, call or maturity; non-U.S. withholding under Section 871(m) was analyzed but may be subject to IRS challenge.
