Principal Protection Enhanced Income Access Leverage

Enhanced income structured investments are appropriate for more risk tolerant investors seeking higher returns than comparable debt instruments. These short-term notes offer enhanced coupon payments. Payout at maturity is determined by the performance of an underlying asset or group of assets; however, they are typically linked to a single stock.

Investors forfeit full participation in the appreciation of the underlying asset in exchange for the potential to earn higher coupon payments. These products do not offer principal protection and investors are subject to potential losses and may receive shares of the underlying security at maturity.

Enhanced income investments can be used to manage portfolio risk while generating positive returns in a flat to moderately positive market environment. Higher coupons may also help to offset potential declines in the underlying investment.

Considered buy and hold investments, enhanced income products do not typically limit or cap upside participation. Investors are exposed to downside risk and may lose part of all of their original investment. Additionally, investors may receive shares of stock at a value below the original principal amount at maturity.

Coupon payments and payment at maturity is subject to the credit risk of the issuer.
