On each contingent coupon payment date, you will receive a contingent coupon payment at a per annum rate equal to the contingent coupon rate if, and
only if, the stock closing price of the lowest performing Underlying Stock on the related calculation day is greater than or equal to its coupon threshold price. Each “contingent coupon payment,” if any, will be calculated per
security as follows: ($1,000 × contingent coupon rate) / 4. Any contingent coupon payment will be rounded to the nearest cent, with one-half cent rounded upward.
