* assumes a leverage factor of 200.00% per Trigger PLUS
The amount that you will be paid on your Trigger 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 Trigger PLUS will be positive and equal to the product of the leverage factor of at least 200.00% (set on the pricing date) multiplied by the index percent increase.
If the final index value is equal to or less than the initial index value but greater than or equal to the trigger level of 65.00% of the initial index value, you will receive the principal amount of your Trigger PLUS. However, if the final index value is less than the trigger level, you will lose a significant portion of your investment.
The Trigger PLUS are for investors who seek the potential to earn at least 200.00% of any positive return of the underlying index, are willing to forgo interest payments and are willing to risk losing their entire investment if the final index value is less than the trigger level.
