Whether the securities pay a Contingent Coupon Payment, whether the securities are automatically called priorto maturity and, if they are not automatically called, whether you receive the face amount of your securities at maturity will depend, in each case, on the Closing Level of theLowest Performing Index on the relevant Calculation Day. The Lowest Performing Index on any Calculation Day is the Index that has the lowest Closing Level on thatCalculation Day as a percentage of its Starting Level Contingent Coupon Payments. The securities will pay a Contingent Coupon Payment on a quarterly basis until the earlier of the Stated Maturity Date or automatic call if, andonly if, the Closing Level of the Lowest Performing Index on the related Coupon Determination Date is greater than or equal to its Coupon Threshold Level. However, if theClosing Level of the Lowest Performing Index on a Coupon Determination Date is less than its Coupon Threshold Level, you will not receive any Contingent Coupon Paymentfor the relevant quarter. If the Closing Level of the Lowest Performing Index is less than its Coupon Threshold Level on every Coupon Determination Date, you will not receiveany Contingent Coupon Payments throughout the entire term of the securities. The Coupon Threshold Level for each Index is equal to 70% of its Starting Level. The ContingentCoupon Rate will be determined on the Pricing Date and will be at least 8.00% per annum Automatic Call.If the Closing Level of the Lowest Performing Index on any of the quarterly Call Observation Dates from July2026 to October2029, inclusive, is greater thanor equal to its Starting Level, the securities will be automatically called for the face amount plus a final Contingent Coupon Payment Potential Loss of Principal.If the securities are not automatically called prior to maturity, you will receive the face amount at maturity if,and only if, the Closing Level of theLowest Performing Index on the Final Calculation Day is greater than or equal to its Downside Threshold Level. If the Closing Level of the Lowest Performing Index on theFinal Calculation Day is less than its Downside Threshold Level, you will lose more than 30%, and possibly all, of the face amount of your securities. The Downside ThresholdLevel for each Index is equal to 70% of its Starting Level If the securities are not automatically called prior to maturity, you will have full downside exposure to the Lowest Performing Index from its Starting Level if its Closing Levelon the Final Calculation Day is less than its Downside Threshold Level, but you will not participate in any appreciation of any Index and will not receive any dividends onsecurities included in any Index Your return on the securities will depend solely on the performance of the Index that is the Lowest Performing Index on each Calculation Day.
