Best-Of Mini Fututes on Swiss and European Blue Ships

Market Expectation

You are short term bullish on both Underlyings. You expect at least one of the Underlyings to close above the Breakeven Level. Further, you do not expect the Underlyings to trade at or below the Stop Loss Level.

Investor Rationale

• The Certificate offers a leveraged and uncapped participation in the performance of the best performing Underlying

• If the performance of one of the Underlyings is positive, the performance of the Certificate is also positive, irrespective of the performance of the second Underlying, as long as this trades above the Stop Loss Level.

Stop Loss Event

A Stop Loss Event occurs if at least one Underlying trades at or below the Stop Loss Level during the lifetime of the product (continuous observation).

Redemption

If a Stop Loss Event has occurred:

The product will be automatically redeemed and the investor will receive an observed price of the best performing Underlying (“Liquidation Price”) on that day less the Strike Level, multiplied by the Conversion Ratio, however the redemption is floored at zero: Conversion Ratio x MAX(0; Liquidation Price of the best performing Underlying - Strike Level)

If a Stop Loss Event has not occurred:

The investor will receive at the redemption date the final fixing of the best performing Underlying less the Strike Level, multiplied by the Conversion Ratio: Conversion Ratio x (Final fixing of the best performing Underlying - Strike Level)
