*This document does not provide all of the information that an investor should consider prior to making an investment decision. You should not invest in the securities without reading the accompanying preliminary pricing supplement and related documents for a more detailed description of the underlier (including historical closing prices of the underlier), the terms of the securities and certain risks.*

&nbsp;&nbsp;***About Your Securities***<br>

The amount that you will be paid on your securities on the stated maturity date is based on the performance of the settlement price of the first or second nearby West Texas Intermediate (WTI) light sweet crude oil futures contract (which we refer to as the "underlier") as measured from the pricing date to and including the valuation date.

If the final underlier price is *greater than* or *equal to* the downside threshold price of 80.00% of the initial underlier price (set on the pricing date), the return on your securities will be positive and equal to at least 14.40% (set on the pricing date). **However, if the final underlier price is less than the downside threshold price, you will lose all or a significant portion of your investment.** 

The securities are for investors who seek the potential to earn a fixed return of at least 14.40% if the final underlier price is greater than or equal to the downside threshold price, are willing to forgo interest payments and returns above the upside payment and are willing to risk losing their entire investment if the final underlier price is less than the downside threshold price.
