     About Your Securities

    

The amount that you will be paid on your securities is based on the performance of the worst performing of the State Street® Energy Select Sector SPDR® ETF, the State Street® Health Care Select Sector SPDR® ETF and the State Street® SPDR® S&P® Biotech ETF. The securities may be automatically called on any call observation date.

The return on your securities is linked to the performance of each underlying ETF, and in each case not to that of the index on which such underlying ETF is based.

Your securities will be automatically called if the closing price of each underlying ETF on any call observation date is greater than or equal to its call threshold price, resulting in a payment on the applicable call payment date equal to (i) the principal amount of your securities plus (ii) such principal amount times the call premium amount applicable to such call observation date. No payments will be made after the call payment date.

At maturity, if not previously called, you may lose a significant portion or all of your investment in the securities. You will not participate in any appreciation of the underlying ETFs.

The securities are for investors who seek a return of between at least 14.30% and at least 85.80%, depending on if and when the securities are automatically called, in exchange for the risk of losing all or a significant portion of the principal amount of their securities if the securities remain outstanding to maturity.

     RISK FACTORS

    

An investment in the securities is subject to risks. Many of the risks are described in the accompanying preliminary pricing supplement, accompanying general terms supplement no. 17,745, accompanying prospectus supplement and accompanying prospectus.

Your securities are a riskier investment than ordinary debt securities. Also, your securities are not equivalent to investing directly in the underlying ETF stocks, i.e., with respect to an underlying ETF to which your securities are linked, the stocks comprising such underlying ETF. You should carefully consider whether the offered securities are appropriate given your particular circumstances.
