Auto-Callable Contingent Coupon Barrier Notes with Memory Coupon
Linked to the Least Performing of Three Underliers

Due December 2, 2026 

 

PRODUCT CHARACTERISTICS
·Contingent Coupons with Memory Feature — If the Notes have not been automatically called, investors will receive a Contingent Coupon on a quarterly Coupon Payment Date if the closing value of each Underlier is greater than or equal to its Coupon Threshold on the immediately preceding Coupon Observation Date. A Contingent Coupon that is not payable on a Coupon Payment Date may be paid later, but only if the closing value of each Underlier is greater than or equal to its Coupon Threshold on a later Coupon Observation Date. You may not receive any Contingent Coupons during the term of the Notes.

·Call Feature — If, on any quarterly Call Observation Date, the closing value of each Underlier is greater than or equal to its Call Value, the Notes will be automatically called for 100% of their principal amount plus the Contingent Coupon and any unpaid Contingent Coupons otherwise due. No further payments will be made on the Notes.

·Contingent Return of Principal at Maturity — If the Notes are not automatically called and the Final Underlier Value of the Least Performing Underlier is greater than or equal to its Barrier Value, at maturity, investors will receive the principal amount of their Notes plus the Contingent Coupon and any unpaid Contingent Coupons otherwise due. If the Notes are not automatically called and the Final Underlier Value of the Least Performing Underlier is less than its Barrier Value, at maturity, investors will receive shares of the Least Performing Underlier that will likely be worth significantly less than the principal amount of their Notes and could be worth nothing.
