**Selected Risk Considerations**

An investment in the Notes involves significant risks. We urge you to consult your investment, legal, tax, accounting and other advisers before you invest in the Notes. Some of the risks that apply to an investment in the Notes are summarized below, but we urge you to read also the "Selected Risk Considerations" section of the accompanying preliminary pricing supplement and the "Risk Factors" sections of the accompanying prospectus, prospectus supplement, index supplement and product supplement. You should not purchase the Notes unless you understand and can bear the risks of investing in the Notes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· You May Not Receive a Positive Return on the Principal Amount at Maturity.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· The Notes Do Not Pay Interest, and Your Return on the Notes May Be Lower Than the Return on a Conventional Debt Security of Comparable
Maturity.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Payments on the Notes Are Subject to Our Credit Risk, and Market Perceptions about Our Creditworthiness May Adversely Affect the Market
Value of the Notes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Any Payment on the Notes Will Be Determined Based on the Closing Values of the Underlier on the Dates Specified.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· You May Be Required to Recognize Taxable Income on the Notes Prior to Maturity.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· There May Not Be an Active Trading Market for the Notes; Sales in the Secondary Market May Result in Significant Losses.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· The Initial Estimated Value of the Notes Will Be Less Than the Public Offering Price.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· The Initial Estimated Value of the Notes Is Only an Estimate, Calculated as of the Trade Date.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Our and Our Affiliates' Business and Trading Activities May Create Conflicts of Interest.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· RBCCM's Role as Calculation Agent May Create Conflicts of Interest.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· RBCCM Coordinated with the Index Sponsor in the Development of the Underlier and Its Sub-Indices.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· You Will Not Have Any Rights to the Securities or the Futures Contracts Underlying the Sub-indices of the Underlier.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· The Underlier and Its Sub-Indices Are Subject to Deductions That Will Adversely Affect Their Performance.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· The Underlier Has a Limited Operating History and May Perform in Unanticipated Ways.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Any Payment on the Notes May Be Postponed and Adversely Affected by the Occurrence of a Market Disruption Event.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Adjustments to the Underlier or its Sub-indices Could Adversely Affect Any Payments on the Notes.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· The Calculation of the Underlier is Based on the Performance of the S&P 500 Market Agility TCA Index (the "MA Index"),
Which Is Comprised of the S&P 500 Long/Short Risk Aware Daily Risk Control 10% TCA Excess Return Index (the "Equity Component")
and the S&P U.S. Treasury Futures Long/Short Risk Aware Daily Risk Control 10% TCA Excess Return Index (the "Fixed Income Component").
The MA Index Is Subject to a Transaction Cost, the Equity Component Is Subject to a Funding Cost and a Transaction Cost, and the Fixed
Income Component Is Subject to a Transaction Cost, In Each Case, That Will Adversely Affect the Performance of the Underlier.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Each of the Underlier, the Equity Component and the Fixed Income Component Relies on a Calculation of Realized Volatility to Predict
Future Volatility and Thereby to Achieve Their Respective Volatility Targets of 10%. There Is No Assurance that the Respective Methods
for Calculating Realized Volatility Are the Best Ways to Calculate Realized Volatility or a Reliable Way to Predict Future Volatility
or to Achieve the Respective Volatility Targets.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· There Is No Guarantee that the Underlier, the Equity Component or the Fixed Income Component Will Achieve Their Respective 10% Volatility
Targets.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· There May Be Overexposure to the MA Index, the S&P 500 Total Return Index (the "SPXT") or a Treasury Index When the
Level of the Respective Index Is Falling or Underexposure to the MA Index, the SPXT or a Treasury Index When the Level of the Respective
Index Is Rising.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· The Underlier's Exposure to the MA Index, the Equity Component's Exposure to the SPXT, and the Fixed Income Component's Exposure to
the S&P 10-Year U.S. Treasury Note Futures Excess Return Index and the S&P 2-Year U.S. Treasury Note Futures Excess Return Index
(the "Treasury Indices") May Be Rebalanced into a Hypothetical Non-Interest Bearing Cash Position on Any or All Days During
the Term of the Notes. The Non-Interest Bearing Cash Position Will Not Earn Interest or a Positive Yield.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Even Though the Titles of the Equity Component and the Fixed Income Component Include the Phrase "Risk Control," Each
Component May Decrease Significantly or Not Increase Significantly Relative to Their Respective Underlying Indices.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Controlled Volatility Does Not Mean the Equity Component or the Fixed Income Component Will Have Lower Volatility than the SPXT or
the Treasury Indices, respectively.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Because the Equity Component and the Fixed Income Component May Include Notional Short Positions, the Notes May Be Subject to Additional
Risks.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· The Methodology for Determining the Exposure Direction of the Equity Component or the Fixed Income Component May Not Be a Reliable
Predictor of Whether the Daily Percentage Change of the SPXT or a Treasury Index, Respectively, Will Be Positive or Negative.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· The Underlier, Via the Fixed Income Component that is Part of the MA Index, Is Linked In Part to the Performance of the Treasury Indices,
Which Are Comprised of Futures Contracts.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Negative Roll Yields Will Adversely Affect the Level of the Treasury Indices Over Time and Therefore the Payment at Maturity.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· The Treasury Indices Are Excess Return Indices, Not Total Return Indices.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· Owning the Notes Is Not the Same as Directly Owning the Treasuries or Futures Contract Directly or Indirectly Tracked by the Treasury
Indices.
