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 is less than the Threshold Value, you will lose more than 10%, and up to 90%, of the principal amount of your Securities on the Maturity Date.

Any positive return on the Securities will be limited to the applicable Call Premium, even if the closing level of the Underlying on the applicable Observation Date significantly exceeds the Starting Value. You will not participate in any appreciation of the Underlying beyond the applicable Call Premium.

 

 

The initial estimated value of the Securities as of the Pricing Date is expected to be between $900.00 and $950.00 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 “Risk Factors” beginning on page PS-8 of the accompanying preliminary pricing supplement and “Structuring the Securities” on page PS-24 of the accompanying preliminary pricing supplement for additional information.

Selected Risk Considerations

The risks set forth below are discussed in detail in the “Risk Factors” 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.

·        The Call Premium or Redemption Amount, as applicable, will not reflect the levels of the Underlying other than on the Observation 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.

·        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 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 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.

·        The publisher of the Underlying may adjust the Underlying in a way that affects its levels, and the publisher has no obligation to consider your interests.

·        The U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the Securities are uncertain, and may be adverse to a holder of the Securities.
