Hypothetical Payout Profile***
*** prepared for purposes of illustration only; assumes a Call Premium equal to the lowest possible Call Premium that may be determined on the Pricing Date.
If the Securities are not automatically called and the Ending Value of the Lowest Performing Underlying on the Final Calculation Day is less than its Threshold Value, you will have 1-to-1 downside exposure to the decrease in the value of the Lowest Performing Underlying on the Final Calculation Day in excess of the Buffer Amount and will lose some, and possibly up to 90.00%, of the principal amount of your Securities at maturity.
Any positive return on the Securities will be limited to any applicable Call Premium, even if the closing value of the Lowest Performing Underlying on the applicable Call Date significantly exceeds the Starting Value. You will not participate in any appreciation of any Underlyings beyond any applicable Call Premium.
The initial estimated value of the Securities as of the pricing date is expected to be between $904.25 and $964.25 per Security, which is less than the public offering price. The actual value of your Securities at any time will reflect many factors and cannot be predicted with accuracy. See “Selected Risk Considerations” beginning on page PS-8 of the accompanying preliminary pricing supplement and “Structuring the Securities” on page PS-30 of the accompanying preliminary pricing supplement for additional information.

Potential purchasers of the Securities should consider the information in “Selected Risk Considerations” beginning on page PS-8 of the accompanying preliminary pricing supplement and in “Risk Factors” beginning on page PS-6 of the accompanying product supplement, page S-7 of the accompanying prospectus supplement, and page 7 of the accompanying prospectus.

Selected Risk Considerations
The risks set forth below, as well as additional risks related to this investment, are discussed in detail in the “Selected Risk Considerations” section in the accompanying preliminary pricing supplement. Please review those risk disclosures carefully.
●
Your investment may result in a loss; there is no guaranteed return of principal.
●
Any positive investment return on the Securities is limited.
●
The Securities do not bear interest.
●
Because the Securities are linked to the lowest performing (and not the average performance) of the Underlyings, you may not receive any return on the Securities and may lose a significant portion of your principal amount even if the closing value of one Underlying is always greater than or equal to its Threshold Value or Starting Value, as applicable.
●
The Call Premium or Maturity Payment Amount, as applicable, will not reflect the values of the Underlyings other than on the Call Dates.
●
The Securities are subject to a potential automatic call, which would limit your ability to receive further payment on the Securities.
●
Your return on the Securities may be less than the yield on a conventional debt security of comparable maturity.
●
A Call Settlement Date and the Maturity Date may be postponed if a Call Date is postponed.
●
Any payment on the Securities is subject to the credit risk of BofA Finance, as issuer, and BAC, as Guarantor, and actual or perceived changes in BofA Finance or the Guarantor’s creditworthiness are expected to affect the value of, or any amounts payable on, the Securities.
●
We are a finance subsidiary and, as such, have no independent assets, operations or revenues.
●
The public offering price you pay for the Securities will exceed their initial estimated value.
●
The initial estimated value does not represent a minimum or maximum price at which BofA Finance, BAC, BofAS or any of our other affiliates or WFS or its affiliates would be willing to purchase your Securities in any secondary market (if any exists) at any time.
●
BofA Finance cannot assure you that a trading market for your Securities will ever develop or be maintained.
●
The Securities are not designed to be short-term trading instruments, and if you attempt to sell the Securities prior to maturity, their market value, if any, will be affected by various factors that interrelate in complex ways, and their market value may be less than the principal amount.
●
Trading and hedging activities by BofA Finance, the Guarantor and any of our other affiliates, including BofAS, and WFS and its affiliates, may create conflicts of interest with you and may adversely affect your return on the Securities and their market value.
|
●
There may be potential conflicts of interest involving the calculation agent, which is an affiliate of ours.
●
Changes that affect the Index may adversely affect the value of the Securities and any payments on the Securities.
●
We cannot control actions by any of the unaffiliated companies whose securities are included in the Index.
●
We and our affiliates have no affiliation with the index sponsor and have not independently verified their public disclosure of information.
●
Risks associated with the applicable fund underlying index, or underlying assets of the Fund, will affect the value of the Fund and hence the value of the Securities.
●
Changes that affect the Fund or its fund underlying index may adversely affect the value of the Securities and any payments on the Securities.
●
We cannot control actions by any of the unaffiliated companies whose securities are included in the Fund or its fund underlying index.
●
We and our affiliates have no affiliation with the fund sponsor or fund underlying index sponsor and have not independently verified their public disclosure of information.
●
There are risks associated with funds.
●
The Securities are subject to risks associated with mid-size capitalization companies.
●
The Securities are subject to risks associated with small-size capitalization companies.
●
The anti-dilution adjustments will be limited.
●
The performance of the IWN may not correlate with the performance of its fund underlying index as well as the net asset value per share of the IWN, especially during periods of market volatility.
●
The U.S. federal income and estate tax consequences of the Securities are uncertain, and may be adverse to a holder of the Securities.
