Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS Based on the Value of the Russell 2000® Index due December 3, 2027
Auto-Callable Trigger Performance Leveraged Upside SecuritiesSM
Fully and Unconditionally Guaranteed by Bank of America Corporation
Principal at Risk Securities
The Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS are our senior debt securities. Any payments on the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Bank of America Corporation ("BAC"). The Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS will pay no interest, do not guarantee any return of principal at maturity and have the terms described in the accompanying product supplement, prospectus supplement and prospectus, as supplemented or modified by this document. The securities will be automatically redeemed if the index closing value of the underlying index on the determination date is greater than or equal to the initial index value, for an early redemption payment of $1,126.00 per Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS, as described below. No further payments will be made on the securities once they have been redeemed. At maturity, if the securities have not previously been redeemed and the underlying index has appreciated in value, investors will receive the stated principal amount of their investment plus leveraged upside performance of the underlying index. If the securities have not previously been redeemed and the underlying index has depreciated in value, but the final index value is greater than or equal to the downside threshold level, investors will receive the stated principal amount of their investment. However, if the securities have not previously been redeemed and the underlying index has depreciated in value so that the final index value is less than the downside threshold level, investors will lose a significant portion or all of their investment, resulting in a 1% loss for every 1% decline in the index value over the term of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS. Under these circumstances, the payment at maturity will be less than 80% of the stated principal amount and could be zero. Accordingly, you may lose your entire investment. These Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS are for investors who seek an equity index-based return and who are willing to risk their principal and forgo current income in exchange for the possibility of receiving an early redemption payment or the upside leverage feature and the limited protection against loss that applies only if the final index value is greater than or equal to the downside threshold level. Investors may lose their entire initial investment in the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS. The Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS are issued as part of BofA Finance LLC's ("BofA Finance") "Medium-Term Notes, Series A" program.
All payments on the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS are subject to the credit risk of BofA Finance, as issuer of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS, and BAC, as guarantor of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS. If we default on our obligations, you could lose some or all of your investment. These Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS are not secured obligations and you will not have any security interest in, or otherwise have any access to, any underlying reference asset or assets.

Investment Summary
Auto-Callable Trigger Performance Leveraged Upside Securities
Principal at Risk Securities
The Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS Based on the Value of the Russell 2000® Index due December 3, 2027 (the "Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS") can be used:

not redeemed before the maturity date
■To provide limited protection against a loss of principal in the event of a decline of the underlying index as of the valuation date but only if the final index value is greater than or equal to the downside threshold level
Maturity:
Approximately 2 years
Automatic early redemption:
If, on the determination date, the index closing value of the underlying index is greater than or equal to the initial index value, the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS will be automatically redeemed for the early redemption payment on the early redemption date. The Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS will not be redeemed early on the early redemption date if the index closing value of the underlying index is below the initial index value on the determination date.

Any payments on the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS depend on the credit risk of BofA Finance, as issuer, and BAC, as guarantor, and on the performance of the underlying index. The economic terms of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS are based on BAC's internal funding rate, which is the rate it would pay to borrow funds through the issuance of market-linked notes, and the economic terms of certain related hedging arrangements BAC's affiliates enter into. BAC's internal funding rate is typically lower than the rate it would pay when it issues conventional fixed or floating rate debt securities. This difference in funding rate, as well as the agent's commissions and fees, if any, and the hedging related charges described below (see "Risk Factors" beginning on page 7), will reduce the economic terms of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS to you and the initial estimated value of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS. Due to these factors, the price to public you pay to purchase the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS will be greater than the initial estimated value of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS as of the pricing date.
The initial estimated value range of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS is set forth on the cover page of this pricing supplement. The final pricing supplement will set forth the initial estimated value of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS as of the pricing date. For more information about the initial estimated value and the structuring of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS, see "Risk Factors" beginning on page 7 and "Structuring the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS" on page 17.
The Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS are our senior debt securities. Any payments on the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by BAC. The Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS and the related guarantee are not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or secured by collateral. The Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS will rank equally in right of payment with all of our other unsecured and unsubordinated obligations, except obligations that are subject to any priorities or preferences by law. The related guarantee will rank equally in right of payment with all of BAC's other unsecured and unsubordinated obligations, except obligations that are subject to any priorities or preferences by law, and senior to its subordinated obligations. Any payments due on the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS, including any repayment of the principal amount, will be subject to the credit risk of BofA Finance, as issuer, and BAC, as guarantor.

Key Investment Rationale
The Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS do not provide for the regular payment of interest. Instead, the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS are for investors who seek a return of equal to $1,126.00, or 12.60% of the stated principal amount, if their Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS are automatically called or the potential to earn at least 125.00% of any positive return of the underlying index if their Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS are not automatically called, in exchange for the risk of losing all or a significant portion of the principal amount of their Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS if the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS remain outstanding to maturity.
The following scenarios are for illustrative purposes only to demonstrate how an automatic early redemption payment or the payment at maturity (if the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS have not previously been redeemed) are calculated, and do not attempt to demonstrate every situation that may occur. Accordingly, the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS may or may not be redeemed prior to maturity and the payment at maturity may be significantly less than the stated principal amount of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS.
Scenario 1: The Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS are redeemed prior to maturity
If the underlying index closes at or above the initial index value on the determination date, the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS will be automatically redeemed for the early redemption payment on the early redemption date. Investors do not participate in any appreciation of the underlying index.
Scenario 2: The Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS are not redeemed prior to maturity, and investors receive principal back and a positive return at maturity
This scenario assumes that the underlying index closes below the initial index value on the determination date. Consequently, the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS are not redeemed prior to maturity. On the valuation date, the underlying index closes above the initial index value. At maturity, investors will receive the stated principal amount of their investment plus a return reflecting 125% of the upside performance of the underlying index.
Scenario 3: The Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS are not redeemed prior to maturity, and investors receive the stated principal amount at maturity
This scenario assumes that the underlying index closes below the initial index value on the determination date. Consequently, the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS are not redeemed prior to maturity. On the valuation date, the underlying index closes below the initial index value but at or above the downside threshold level. At maturity, investors will receive a cash payment equal to $1,000.00 per Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS.
Scenario 4: The Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS are not redeemed prior to maturity, and investors suffer a substantial loss of principal at maturity
This scenario assumes that the underlying index closes below the initial index value on the determination date. Consequently, the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS are not redeemed prior to maturity. On the valuation date, the underlying index closes below the downside threshold level. At maturity, investors will receive an amount equal to the stated principal amount multiplied by the index performance factor. Under these circumstances, the payment at maturity will be significantly less than the stated principal amount and could be zero.

Hypothetical Examples
Early Redemption
The examples below illustrate how the amount payable per Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS on the early redemption date, if any, will be determined based upon the index closing value of the underlying index on the determination date. The examples are based on the hypothetical values indicated below and do not reflect the actual initial index value of the underlying index. The actual initial index value will be determined on the pricing date. We have used these hypothetical values, rather than actual values, to simplify calculations and aid understanding of how the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS work. However, you should understand that the actual payments on the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS will be calculated based on the actual initial index value of the underlying index, and not the hypothetical values indicated below. For ease of analysis, figures below may have been rounded.
The examples are based on, for the underlying index, a hypothetical initial index value of 100.00 and the hypothetical index closing values indicated below. Whether the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS are redeemed prior to maturity and your actual early redemption payment, if any, will depend on the actual index closing value of the underlying index on the determination date.
Example 1-The Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS are not redeemed following the determination date. On the determination date, the hypothetical index closing value of the underlying index is 80.00 (a 20% decrease from the hypothetical initial index value).
In this scenario, the hypothetical index closing value of the underlying index is below the initial index value. Therefore, the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS are not redeemed.
Example 2-The Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS are redeemed following the determination date. On the determination date, the hypothetical index closing value of the underlying index is 120.00 (a 20% increase from the hypothetical initial index value).
In this scenario, the hypothetical index closing value of the underlying index is at or above the initial index value. Therefore, the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS are automatically redeemed on the early redemption date. Investors will receive a payment of $1,126.00 per Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS on the early redemption date. No further payments will be made on the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS once they have been redeemed, and investors do not participate in the appreciation in the underlying index.
Payment at Maturity
The examples below illustrate how the payment at maturity will be calculated if the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS are not automatically redeemed prior to maturity. The examples are based on the hypothetical values indicated below and do not reflect the actual initial index value of the underlying index or the actual downside threshold level. The actual initial index value and downside threshold level will be determined on the pricing date. We have used these hypothetical values, rather than actual values, to simplify calculations and aid understanding of how the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS work. However, you should understand that the actual payment at maturity on the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS will be calculated based on the actual initial index value and downside threshold level of the underlying index, and not the hypothetical values indicated below. For ease of analysis, figures below may have been rounded.
The examples are based on a hypothetical initial index value of 100.00 and a hypothetical downside threshold level of 80.00 and the hypothetical final index values indicated below. If the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS are not automatically redeemed prior to maturity, your actual payment at maturity will depend on the actual final index value of the underlying index on the valuation date.
Example 1-Upside Scenario. The hypothetical final index value of the underlying index is 120.00 (a 20% increase from the hypothetical initial index value).
In this scenario, because the final index value of the underlying index on the valuation date is greater than the initial index value, the payment at maturity per Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS would be calculated as follows:
Payment at maturity per Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS = $1,000 + ($1,000 × leverage factor × index percent increase)
= $1,000 + ($1,000 x 125% x 20%)
= $1,250.00
In this scenario, because the final index value of the underlying index on the valuation date is greater than the initial index value, you would be repaid the stated principal amount of $1,000.00 per Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS at maturity plus a return reflecting 125% of the appreciation of the underlying index. Investors would receive $1,250.00 per Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS at maturity.

Principal at Risk Securities
Example 2-Par Scenario. The hypothetical final index value of the underlying index is 93.00 (a 7% decrease from the hypothetical initial index value).
In this scenario, because the final index value of the underlying index is less than the initial index value but greater than or equal to the downside threshold level, you would be repaid the stated principal amount of $1,000.00 per Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS and would not receive any positive return at maturity.
Example 3-Downside Scenario. The hypothetical final index value of the underlying index is 40.00 (a 60% decrease from the hypothetical initial index value).
In this scenario, because the final index value of the underlying index on the valuation date is less than the downside threshold level, the payment at maturity per Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS would be calculated as follows:
Payment at maturity per Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS = ($1,000 × the index performance factor)
= ($1,000 × 40%)
= $400.00
In this scenario, the underlying index on the valuation date has depreciated below the downside threshold level. Accordingly, your payment at maturity in this scenario would reflect 1-to-1 downside exposure to the depreciation of the underlying index from the initial index value to the final index value, and you would incur a significant loss on your investment.

Risk Factors
Your investment in the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS entails significant risks, many of which differ from those of a conventional debt security. Your decision to purchase the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS should be made only after carefully considering the risks of an investment in the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS, including those discussed below, with your advisors in light of your particular circumstances. The Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS are not an appropriate investment for you if you are not knowledgeable about significant elements of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS or financial matters in general. You should carefully review the more detailed explanation of risks relating to the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS in the "Risk Factors" sections beginning on page PS-5 of the accompanying product supplement, page S-6 of the accompanying prospectus supplement and page 7 of the accompanying prospectus, each as identified on the cover page of this pricing supplement.
Structure-related Risks
Your investment may result in a significant loss; there is no guaranteed return of principal. There is no fixed principal repayment amount on the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS at maturity. If the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS are not automatically redeemed prior to maturity and the final index value is less than the downside threshold level, at maturity, you will lose 1% of the principal amount for each 1% that the final index value is less than the initial index value. In that case, you will lose a significant portion or all of your investment in the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS.
The Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS do not bear interest. Unlike a conventional debt security, no interest payments will be paid over the term of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS, regardless of the extent to which the final index value of the underlying index exceeds the initial index value.
The Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS are subject to a potential automatic early redemption, which would limit your ability to receive further payment on the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS. The Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS are subject to a potential automatic early redemption. The Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS will be automatically called if, on the determination date, the index closing value of the underlying index is greater than or equal to the initial index value. If the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS are automatically called prior to the maturity date, you will be entitled to receive the early redemption payment on the early redemption date, and no further amounts will be payable following the automatic early redemption. In this case, you will lose the opportunity to receive payment of any higher amount that might otherwise be payable at maturity. If the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS are called prior to the maturity date, you may be unable to invest in other securities with a similar level of risk that could provide a return that is similar to the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS.
Your return on the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS may be less than the yield on a conventional debt security of comparable maturity. Any return that you receive on the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS may be less than the return you would earn if you purchased a conventional debt security with the same maturity date. As a result, your investment in the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS may not reflect the full opportunity cost to you when you consider factors, such as inflation, that affect the time value of money.
The early redemption payment or payment at maturity, as applicable, will not reflect changes in the level of the underlying index other than on the determination date or the valuation date, as applicable. The level of the underlying index during the term of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS other than on the determination date or the valuation date, as applicable, will not affect payments on the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS. Notwithstanding the foregoing, investors should generally be aware of the performance of the underlying index while holding the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS, as the performance of the underlying index may influence the market value of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS. The calculation agent will determine whether the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS will be early redeemed and will calculate the early redemption payment or the payment at maturity, as applicable, by comparing only the initial index value or downside threshold level, as applicable, to the index closing value or the final index value for the underlying index. No other levels of the underlying index will be taken into account. As a result, if the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS are not redeemed prior to maturity, and the final index value of the underlying index is less than the downside threshold level, you will receive significantly less than the principal amount at maturity even if the level of the underlying index was always above the downside threshold level prior to the valuation date.
Any payments on the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS are subject to our credit risk and the credit risk of the guarantor, and any actual or perceived changes in our or the guarantor's creditworthiness are expected to affect the value of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS. The Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS are our senior unsecured debt securities. Any payment on the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed by the guarantor. The Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS are not guaranteed by any entity other than the guarantor. As a result, your receipt of the payment at maturity will be dependent upon our ability and the ability of the guarantor to repay our respective obligations under the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS on the maturity date, regardless of the final index value of the underlying index as compared to the initial index value. No assurance can be given as to what our financial condition or the financial condition of the guarantor will be at any time after the pricing date of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS. If we and the guarantor become unable to meet our respective financial obligations as they become due, you may not receive the amount(s) payable under the terms of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS.

In addition, our credit ratings and the credit ratings of the guarantor are assessments by ratings agencies of our respective abilities to pay our obligations. Consequently, our or the guarantor's perceived creditworthiness and actual or anticipated decreases in our or the guarantor's credit ratings or increases in the spread between the yield on our respective securities and the yield on U.S. Treasury securities (the "credit spread") prior to the maturity date may adversely affect the market value of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS. However, because your return on the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS depends upon factors in addition to our ability and the ability of the guarantor to pay our respective obligations, such as the value of the underlying index, an improvement in our or the guarantor's credit ratings will not reduce the other investment risks related to the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS.
We are a finance subsidiary and, as such, have no independent assets, operations, or revenues. We are a finance subsidiary of the guarantor, have no operations other than those related to the issuance, administration and repayment of our debt securities that are guaranteed by the guarantor, and are dependent upon the guarantor and/or its other subsidiaries to meet our obligations under the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS in the ordinary course. Therefore, our ability to make payments on the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS may be limited.

The price to public you pay for the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS will exceed their initial estimated value. The range of initial estimated values of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS that is provided on the cover page of this pricing supplement, and the initial estimated value as of the pricing date that will be provided in the final pricing supplement, are each estimates only, determined as of a particular point in time by reference to our and our affiliates' pricing models. These pricing models consider certain assumptions and variables, including our credit spreads and those of the guarantor, the guarantor's internal funding rate, mid-market terms on hedging transactions, expectations on interest rates, dividends and volatility, price-sensitivity analysis, and the expected term of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS. These pricing models rely in part on certain forecasts about future events, which may prove to be incorrect. If you attempt to sell the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS prior to maturity, their market value may be lower than the price you paid for them and lower than their initial estimated value. This is due to, among other things, changes in the level of the underlying index, changes in the guarantor's internal funding rate, and the inclusion in the price to public of the agent's commissions and fees, if any, and the hedging related charges, all as further described in "Structuring the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS" below. These factors, together with various credit, market and economic factors over the term of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS, are expected to reduce the price at which you may be able to sell the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS in any secondary market and will affect the value of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS in complex and unpredictable ways.
The initial estimated value does not represent a minimum or maximum price at which we, BAC, BofAS or any of our other affiliates would be willing to purchase your Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS in any secondary market (if any exists) at any time. The value of your Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS at any time after issuance will vary based on many factors that cannot be predicted with accuracy, including the performance of the underlying index, our and BAC's creditworthiness and changes in market conditions.
We cannot assure you that a trading market for your Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS will ever develop or be maintained. We will not list the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS on any securities exchange. We cannot predict how the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS will trade in any secondary market or whether that market will be liquid or illiquid.
Conflict-related Risks
Trading and hedging activities by us, the guarantor and any of our other affiliates, including BofAS, may create conflicts of interest with you and may affect your return on the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS and their market value. We, the guarantor or one or more of our other affiliates, including BofAS, may buy or sell the securities held by or included in the underlying index, or futures or options contracts or exchange traded instruments on the underlying index or those securities, or other instruments whose value is derived from the underlying index or those securities. While we, the guarantor or one or more of our other affiliates, including BofAS, may from time to time own securities represented by the underlying index, except to the extent that BAC's common stock may be included in the underlying index, we, the guarantor and our other affiliates, including BofAS, do not control any company included in the underlying index, and have not verified any disclosure made by any other company. We, the guarantor or one or more of our other affiliates, including BofAS, may execute such purchases or sales for our own or their own accounts, for business reasons, or in connection with hedging our obligations under the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS. These transactions may present a conflict of interest between your interest in the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS and the interests we, the guarantor and our other affiliates, including BofAS, may have in our or their proprietary accounts, in facilitating transactions, including block trades, for our or their other customers, and in accounts under our or their management. These transactions may adversely affect the level of the underlying index in a manner that could be adverse to your investment in the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS. On or before the pricing date, any purchases or sales by us, the guarantor or our other affiliates, including BofAS or others on our or their behalf (including those for the purpose of hedging some or all of our anticipated exposure in connection with the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS), may affect the level of the underlying index. Consequently, the level of the underlying index may change subsequent to the pricing date, which may adversely affect the market value of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS.

We, the guarantor or one or more of our other affiliates, including BofAS, also expect to engage in hedging activities that could affect the level of the underlying index on the pricing date. In addition, these hedging activities, including the unwinding of a hedge, may decrease the market value of your Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS prior to maturity, and may affect the amounts to be paid on the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS. We, the guarantor or one or more of our other affiliates, including BofAS, may purchase or otherwise acquire a long or short position in the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS and may hold or resell the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS. For example, BofAS may enter into these transactions in connection with any market making activities in which it engages. We cannot assure you that these activities will not adversely affect the level of the underlying index, the market value of your Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS prior to maturity or the amounts payable on the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS.
There may be potential conflicts of interest involving the calculation agent, which is an affiliate of ours. We have the right to appoint and remove the calculation agent. One of our affiliates will be the calculation agent for the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS and, as such, will make a variety of determinations relating to the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS, including the amounts that will be paid on the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS. Under some circumstances, these duties could result in a conflict of interest between its status as our affiliate and its responsibilities as calculation agent.
Underlying Index-related Risks
The securities are subject to risks associated with small-size capitalization companies. The stocks comprising the RTY are issued by companies with small-sized market capitalization. The stock prices of small-size companies may be more volatile than stock prices of large capitalization companies. Small-size capitalization companies may be less able to withstand adverse economic, market, trade and competitive conditions relative to larger companies. Small-size capitalization companies may also be more susceptible to adverse developments related to their products or services.
The publisher of the underlying index may adjust the underlying index in a way that affects its levels, and the publisher has no obligation to consider your interests. The publisher of the underlying index can add, delete, or substitute the components included in the underlying index or make other methodological changes that could change its level. Any of these actions could adversely affect the value of your Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS.
Governmental regulatory actions, such as sanctions, could adversely affect your investment in the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS. Governmental regulatory actions, including, without limitation, sanctions-related actions by the U.S. or a foreign government, could prohibit or otherwise restrict persons from

holding the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS or the component securities of the underlying index, or engaging in transactions therein, and any such action could adversely affect the value of the underlying index or the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS. These regulatory actions could result in restrictions on the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS and could result in the loss of a significant portion or all of your initial investment in the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS, including if you are forced to divest the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS due to the government mandates, especially if such divestment must be made at a time when the value of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS has declined.
Tax-related Risks
The U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS are uncertain, and may be adverse to a holder of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS. No statutory, judicial, or administrative authority directly addresses the characterization of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS or securities similar to the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS for U.S. federal income tax purposes. As a result, significant aspects of the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS are not certain. Under the terms of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS, you will have agreed with us to treat the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS as single financial contracts, as described below under "Additional Information About the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS-Tax considerations-General." If the Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS") were successful in asserting an alternative characterization for the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS, the timing and character of gain or loss with respect to the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS may differ. No ruling will be requested from the IRS with respect to the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS and no assurance can be given that the IRS will agree with the statements made in the section entitled "Additional Information About the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS-Tax considerations." You are urged to consult with your own tax advisor regarding all aspects of the U.S. federal income tax consequences of investing in the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS.

Additional Information About the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS

Additional Information:

Tax considerations:

The following summary of the material U.S. federal income and estate tax considerations of the acquisition, ownership, and disposition of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS supplements, and to the extent inconsistent supersedes, the discussion under "U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations" in the accompanying prospectus and is not exhaustive of all possible tax considerations. This summary is based upon the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), regulations promulgated under the Code by the U.S. Treasury Department ("Treasury") (including proposed and temporary regulations), rulings, current administrative interpretations and official pronouncements of the IRS, and judicial decisions, all as currently in effect and all of which are subject to differing interpretations or to change, possibly with retroactive effect. No assurance can be given that the IRS would not assert, or that a court would not sustain, a position contrary to any of the tax consequences described below. This summary does not include any description of the tax laws of any state or local governments, or of any foreign government, that may be applicable to a particular holder.

Although the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS are issued by us, they will be treated as if they were issued by BAC for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Accordingly throughout this tax discussion, references to "we," "our" or "us" are generally to BAC unless the context requires otherwise.

This summary is directed solely to U.S. Holders and Non-U.S. Holders that, except as otherwise specifically noted, will purchase the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS upon original issuance and will hold the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS as capital assets within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code, which generally means property held for investment, and that are not excluded from the discussion under "U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations" in the accompanying prospectus.

You should consult your own tax advisor concerning the U.S. federal income tax consequences to you of acquiring, owning, and disposing of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS, as well as any tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, local, foreign, or other tax jurisdiction and the possible effects of changes in U.S. federal or other tax laws.

General

Although there is no statutory, judicial, or administrative authority directly addressing the characterization of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS, we intend to treat the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS for all tax purposes as single financial contracts with respect to the underlying index and under the terms of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS, we and every investor in the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS agree, in the absence of an administrative determination or judicial ruling to the contrary, to treat the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS in accordance with such characterization. In the opinion of our counsel, Sidley Austin LLP, it is reasonable to treat the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS as single financial contracts with respect to the underlying index. This discussion assumes that the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS constitute single financial contracts with respect to the underlying index for U.S. federal income tax purposes. If the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS did not constitute single financial contracts, the tax consequences described below would be materially different.

This characterization of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS is not binding on the IRS or the courts. No statutory, judicial, or administrative authority directly addresses the characterization of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS or any similar instruments for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and no ruling is being requested from the IRS with respect to their proper characterization and treatment. Due to the absence of authorities on point, significant aspects of the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS are not certain, and no assurance can be given that the IRS or any court will agree with the characterization and tax treatment described in this pricing supplement. Accordingly, you are urged to consult your tax advisor regarding all aspects of the U.S. federal income tax consequences of an investment in the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS, including possible alternative characterizations.

Unless otherwise stated, the following discussion is based on the characterization described above. The discussion in this section assumes that there is a significant possibility of a significant loss of principal on an investment in the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS.

We will not attempt to ascertain whether any issuer of a component stock included in the Underlying would be treated as a "passive foreign investment company" ("PFIC"), within the meaning of Section 1297 of the Code, or a United States real property holding corporation, within the meaning of Section 897(c) of the Code. If the issuer of one or more stocks included in the Underlying were so treated, certain adverse U.S. federal income tax consequences could possibly apply to a holder of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS. You should refer to information filed with the SEC by the issuers of the component stocks included in the Underlying and consult your

tax advisor regarding the possible consequences to you, if any, if any issuer of a component stock included in the Underlying is or becomes a PFIC or is or becomes a United States real property holding corporation.

U.S. Holders

Upon receipt of a cash payment at maturity or upon a sale, exchange or redemption of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS prior to maturity, a U.S. Holder generally will recognize capital gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount realized and the U.S. Holder's tax basis in the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS. A U.S. Holder's tax basis in the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS will equal the amount paid by that holder to acquire them. This capital gain or loss generally will be long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. Holder held the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS for more than one year. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations.

Alternative Tax Treatments. Due to the absence of authorities that directly address the proper tax treatment of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS, prospective investors are urged to consult their tax advisors regarding all possible alternative tax treatments of an investment in the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS. In particular, the IRS could seek to subject the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS to the Treasury regulations governing contingent payment debt instruments. If the IRS were successful in that regard, the timing and character of income on the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS would be affected significantly. Among other things, a U.S. Holder would be required to accrue original issue discount every year at a "comparable yield" determined at the time of issuance. In addition, any gain realized by a U.S. Holder at maturity or upon a sale, exchange or redemption of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS generally would be treated as ordinary income, and any loss realized at maturity or upon a sale, exchange or redemption of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS generally would be treated as ordinary loss to the extent of the U.S. Holder's prior accruals of original issue discount, and as capital loss thereafter.

The IRS released Notice 2008-2 (the "Notice"), which sought comments from the public on the taxation of financial instruments currently taxed as "prepaid forward contracts." This Notice addresses instruments such as the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS. According to the Notice, the IRS and Treasury are considering whether a holder of an instrument such as the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS should be required to accrue ordinary income on a current basis, regardless of whether any payments are made prior to maturity. It is not possible to determine what guidance the IRS and Treasury will ultimately issue, if any. Any such future guidance may affect the amount, timing and character of income, gain, or loss in respect of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS, possibly with retroactive effect.

The IRS and Treasury are also considering additional issues, including whether additional gain or loss from such instruments should be treated as ordinary or capital, whether foreign holders of such instruments should be subject to withholding tax on any deemed income accruals, whether Section 1260 of the Code, concerning certain "constructive ownership transactions," generally applies or should generally apply to such instruments, and whether any of these determinations depend on the nature of the underlying asset.

In addition, proposed Treasury regulations require the accrual of income on a current basis for contingent payments made under certain notional principal contracts. The preamble to the regulations states that the "wait and see" method of accounting does not properly reflect the economic accrual of income on those contracts, and requires current accrual of income for some contracts already in existence. While the proposed regulations do not apply to prepaid forward contracts, the preamble to the proposed regulations expresses the view that similar timing issues exist in the case of prepaid forward contracts. If the IRS or Treasury publishes future guidance requiring current economic accrual for contingent payments on prepaid forward contracts, it is possible that you could be required to accrue income over the term of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS.

Because of the absence of authority regarding the appropriate tax characterization of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS, it is also possible that the IRS could seek to characterize the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS in a manner that results in tax consequences that are different from those described above. For example, the IRS could possibly assert that any gain or loss that a holder may recognize at maturity or upon the sale, exchange or redemption of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS should be treated as ordinary gain or loss.

Because the Underlying is an index that periodically rebalances, it is possible that the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS could be treated as a series of single financial contracts, each of which matures on the next rebalancing date. If the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS were properly characterized in such a manner, a U.S. Holder would be treated as disposing of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS on each rebalancing date in return for new Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS that mature on the next rebalancing date, and a U.S. Holder would accordingly likely recognize capital gain or loss on each rebalancing date equal to the difference between the holder's tax basis in the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS (which would be adjusted to take into account any prior recognition of gain or loss) and the fair market value of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS on such date.

Non-U.S. Holders

Except as discussed below, a Non-U.S. Holder generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income or withholding tax for amounts paid in respect of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS provided that the Non-U.S. Holder complies with applicable certification requirements and that the payment is not effectively connected with the conduct by the Non-U.S. Holder of a U.S. trade or business. Notwithstanding the foregoing, gain from the sale, exchange or redemption of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS or their settlement at maturity may be subject to U.S. federal income tax if that Non-U.S. Holder is a non-resident alien individual and is present in the U.S. for 183 days or more during the taxable year of the sale, exchange, or settlement and certain other conditions are satisfied.

If a Non-U.S. Holder of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS is engaged in the conduct of a trade or business within the U.S. and if any gain realized on the settlement at maturity, or upon sale or exchange of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS, is effectively connected with the conduct of such trade or business (and, if certain tax treaties apply, is attributable to a permanent establishment maintained by the Non-U.S. Holder in the U.S.), the Non-U.S. Holder, although exempt from U.S. federal withholding tax, generally will be subject to U.S. federal income tax on such gain on a net income basis in the same manner as if it were a U.S. Holder. Such Non-U.S. Holders should read the material under the heading "-U.S. Holders," for a description of the U.S. federal income tax consequences of acquiring, owning, and disposing of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS. In addition, if such Non-U.S. Holder is a foreign corporation, it may also be subject to a branch profits tax equal to 30% (or such lower rate provided by any applicable tax treaty) of a portion of its earnings and profits for the taxable year that are effectively connected with its conduct of a trade or business in the U.S., subject to certain adjustments.

A "dividend equivalent" payment is treated as a dividend from sources within the United States and such payments generally would be subject to a 30% U.S. withholding tax if paid to a Non-U.S. Holder. Under Treasury regulations, payments (including deemed payments) with respect to equity-linked instruments ("ELIs") that are "specified ELIs" may be treated as dividend equivalents if such specified ELIs reference an interest in an "underlying security," which is generally any interest in an entity taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes if a payment with respect to such interest could give rise to a U.S. source dividend. However, IRS guidance provides that withholding on dividend equivalent payments will not apply to specified ELIs that are not delta-one instruments and that are issued before January 1, 2027. Based on our determination that the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS are not delta-one instruments, Non-U.S. Holders should not be subject to withholding on dividend equivalent payments, if any, under the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS. However, it is possible that the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS could be treated as deemed reissued for U.S. federal income tax purposes upon the occurrence of certain events affecting the Underlying or the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS, and following such occurrence the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS could be treated as subject to withholding on dividend equivalent payments. Non-U.S. Holders that enter, or have entered, into other transactions in respect of the Underlying or the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS should consult their tax advisors as to the application of the dividend equivalent withholding tax in the context of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS and their other transactions. If any payments are treated as dividend equivalents subject to withholding, we (or the applicable paying agent) would be entitled to withhold taxes without being required to pay any additional amounts with respect to amounts so withheld.

As discussed above, alternative characterizations of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS for U.S. federal income tax purposes are possible. Should an alternative characterization, by reason of change or clarification of the law, by regulation or otherwise, cause payments as to the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS to become subject to withholding tax, tax will be withheld at the applicable statutory rate. As discussed above, the IRS has indicated in the Notice that it is considering whether income in respect of instruments such as the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS should be subject to withholding tax. Prospective Non-U.S. Holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the tax consequences of such alternative characterizations.

U.S. Federal Estate Tax. Under current law, while the matter is not entirely clear, individual Non-U.S. Holders, and entities whose property is potentially includible in those individuals' gross estates for U.S. federal estate tax purposes (for example, a trust funded by such an individual and with respect to which the individual has retained certain interests or powers), should note that, absent an applicable treaty benefit, an Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS is likely to be treated as U.S. situs property, subject to U.S. federal estate tax. These individuals and entities should consult their own tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal estate tax consequences of investing in an Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS.

Reporting" in the accompanying prospectus for a description of the applicability of the backup withholding and information reporting rules to payments made on the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS.

Structuring the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS:

The Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS are our debt securities, the return on which is linked to the performance of the underlying index. The related guarantee is BAC's obligation. As is the case for all of our and BAC's respective debt securities, including our market-linked notes, the economic terms of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS reflect our and BAC's actual or perceived creditworthiness at the time of pricing. In addition, because market-linked notes result in increased operational, funding and liability management costs to us and BAC, BAC typically borrows the funds under these types of notes at a rate, which we refer to in this pricing supplement as BAC's internal funding rate, that is more favorable to BAC than the rate that it might pay for a conventional fixed or floating rate debt security. This generally relatively lower internal funding rate, which is reflected in the economic terms of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS, along with the fees and charges associated with market-linked notes, typically results in the initial estimated value of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS on the pricing date being less than their price to public.

The initial estimated value range of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS is set forth on the cover page of this pricing supplement. The final pricing supplement will set forth the initial estimated value of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS as of the pricing date.

In order to meet our payment obligations on the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS, at the time we issue the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS, we may choose to enter into certain hedging arrangements (which may include call options, put options or other derivatives) with BofAS or one of our other affiliates. The terms of these hedging arrangements are determined based upon terms provided by BofAS and its affiliates, and take into account a number of factors, including our and BAC's creditworthiness, interest rate movements, the volatility of the underlying index, the tenor of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS and the hedging arrangements. The economic terms of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS and their initial estimated value depend in part on the terms of these hedging arrangements.

BofAS has advised us that the hedging arrangements will include hedging related charges, reflecting the costs associated with, and our affiliates' profit earned from, these hedging arrangements. Since hedging entails risk and may be influenced by unpredictable market forces, actual profits or losses from these hedging transactions may be more or less than any expected amounts.

For further information, see "Risk Factors" beginning on page 7 above and "Supplemental Use of Proceeds" on page PS-20 of the accompanying product supplement.

Supplement to the plan of distribution; role of BofAS and conflicts of interest:

BofAS, a broker-dealer affiliate of ours, is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. ("FINRA") and will participate as agent in the distribution of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS. Accordingly, the offering of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS will conform to the requirements of FINRA Rule 5121. BofAS may not make sales in this offering to any of its discretionary accounts without the prior written approval of the account holder.

We expect to deliver the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS against payment therefor in New York, New York on a date that is greater than one business day following the pricing date. Under Rule 15c6-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in one business day, unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, if the initial settlement of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS occurs more than one business day from the pricing date, purchasers who wish to trade the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS more than one business day prior to the original issue date will be required to specify alternative settlement arrangements to prevent a failed settlement.

Under our distribution agreement with BofAS, BofAS will purchase the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS from us as principal at the price to public indicated on the cover of this pricing supplement, less the indicated agent's commissions and fees, if any. BofAS will sell the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS to other broker-dealers that will participate in the offering and that are not affiliated with us, at an agreed discount to the principal amount. Each of those broker-dealers may sell the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS to one or more additional broker-dealers. BofAS has informed us that these discounts may vary from dealer to dealer and that not all dealers will purchase or repurchase the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS at the same discount. Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC ("Morgan Stanley Wealth Management") and its financial advisors will collectively receive from the agent, BofAS, a fixed sales commission for each security they sell, and Morgan Stanley Wealth Management will receive a structuring fee for each security, in each case as specified on the cover page of this document. The costs included in the original issue price of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS will include a fee paid by BofAS to LFT Securities, LLC, an entity in which an affiliate of BofAS and an affiliate of Morgan Stanley Wealth Management have ownership interests, for providing certain electronic platform services with respect to this offering.

BofAS and any of our other broker-dealer affiliates may use this pricing supplement and the accompanying product supplement, prospectus supplement and prospectus for offers and sales in secondary market transactions and market-making transactions in the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS. However, they are not obligated to engage in such secondary market transactions and/or market-making transactions. These broker-dealer affiliates may act as principal or agent in these transactions, and any such sales will be made at prices related to prevailing market conditions at the time of the sale.

At BofAS's discretion, for a short, undetermined initial period after the issuance of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS, BofAS may offer to buy the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS in the secondary market at a price that may exceed the initial estimated value of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS. Any price offered by BofAS for the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS will be based on then-prevailing market conditions and other considerations, including the performance of the underlying index and the remaining term of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS. However, none of us, the guarantor, BofAS or any of our other affiliates is obligated to purchase your Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS at any price or at any time, and we cannot assure you that any party will purchase your Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS at a price that equals or exceeds the initial estimated value of the Auto-Callable Trigger PLUS.

Annex A-The Russell 2000® Index
The RTY was developed by Russell Investments ("Russell") before FTSE International Limited and Russell combined in 2015 to create FTSE Russell, which is wholly owned by London Stock Exchange Group. Additional information on the RTY is available at the following website: www.ftserussell.com. No information on that website is deemed to be included or incorporated by reference in this pricing supplement.
Russell began dissemination of the RTY on January 1, 1984. FTSE Russell calculates and publishes the RTY. The RTY was set to 135 as of the close of business on December 31, 1986. The RTY is designed to track the performance of the small capitalization segment of the U.S. equity market. As a subset of the Russell 3000® Index, the RTY consists of the smallest 2,000 companies included in the Russell 3000® Index. The Russell 3000® Index measures the performance of the largest 3,000 U.S. companies, representing approximately 98% of the investable U.S. equity market. The RTY is determined, comprised, and calculated by FTSE Russell without regard to the securities.
Selection of Stocks Comprising the RTY
Each company eligible for inclusion in the RTY must be classified as a U.S. company under FTSE Russell's country-assignment methodology. If a company is incorporated, has a stated headquarters location, and trades in the same country (American Depositary Receipts and American Depositary Shares are not eligible), then the company is assigned to its country of incorporation. If any of the three factors are not the same, FTSE Russell defines three Home Country Indicators ("HCIs"): country of incorporation, country of headquarters, and country of the most liquid exchange (as defined by a two-year average daily dollar trading volume) from all exchanges within a country. Using the HCIs, FTSE Russell compares the primary location of the company's assets with the three HCIs. If the primary location of its assets matches any of the HCIs, then the company is assigned to the primary location of its assets. If there is insufficient information to determine the country in which the company's assets are primarily located, FTSE Russell will use the country from which the company's revenues are primarily derived for the comparison with the three HCIs in a similar manner. FTSE Russell uses the average of two years of assets or revenues data to reduce potential turnover. If conclusive country details cannot be derived from assets or revenues data, FTSE Russell will assign the company to the country of its headquarters, which is defined as the address of the company's principal executive offices, unless that country is a Benefit Driven Incorporation ("BDI") country, in which case the company will be assigned to the country of its most liquid stock exchange. BDI countries include: Anguilla, Antigua and Barbuda, Bahamas, Barbados, Belize, Bermuda, Bonaire, British Virgin Islands, Cayman Islands, Channel Islands, Cook Islands, Curacao, Faroe Islands, Gibraltar, Guernsey, Isle of Man, Jersey, Liberia, Marshall Islands, Panama, Saba, Sint Eustatius, Sint Maarten, and Turks and Caicos Islands. For any companies incorporated or headquartered in a U.S. territory, including Puerto Rico, Guam, and U.S. Virgin Islands, a U.S. HCI is assigned.
All securities eligible for inclusion in the RTY must trade on a major U.S. exchange. Stocks must have a closing price at or above $1.00 on their primary exchange on the last trading day in May to be eligible for inclusion during annual reconstitution. However, in order to reduce unnecessary turnover, if an existing member's closing price is less than $1.00 on the last day of May, it will be considered eligible if the average of the daily closing prices (from its primary exchange) during the month of May is equal to or greater than $1.00. Initial public offerings are added each quarter and must have a closing price at or above $1.00 on the last day of their eligibility period in order to qualify for index inclusion. If an existing stock does not trade on the "rank day" (typically the last trading day in May but a confirmed timetable is announced each spring) but does have a closing price at or above $1.00 on another eligible U.S. exchange, that stock will be eligible for inclusion.
An important criterion used to determine the list of securities eligible for the RTY is total market capitalization, which is defined as the market price as of the last trading day in May for those securities being considered at annual reconstitution times the total number of shares outstanding. Where applicable, common stock, non-restricted exchangeable shares and partnership units/membership interests are used to determine market capitalization. Any other form of shares such as preferred stock, convertible preferred stock, redeemable shares, participating preferred stock, warrants and rights, installment receipts or trust receipts, are excluded from the calculation. If multiple share classes of common stock exist, they are combined. In cases where the common stock share classes act independently of each other (e.g., tracking stocks), each class is considered for inclusion separately. If multiple share classes exist, the pricing vehicle will be designated as the share class with the highest two-year trading volume as of the rank day in May.
Companies with a total market capitalization of less than $30 million are not eligible for the RTY. Similarly, companies with only 5% or less of their shares available in the marketplace are not eligible for the RTY. Royalty trusts, limited liability companies, closed-end investment companies (companies that are required to report Acquired Fund Fees and Expenses, as defined by the SEC, including business development companies), blank check companies, special purpose acquisition companies, and limited partnerships are also ineligible for inclusion. Bulletin board, pink sheets, and over-the-counter traded securities are not eligible for inclusion. Exchange traded funds and mutual funds are also excluded.
Annual reconstitution is a process by which the RTY is completely rebuilt. Based on closing levels of the company's common stock on its primary exchange on the rank day of May of each year, FTSE Russell reconstitutes the composition of the RTY using the then existing market capitalizations of eligible companies. Reconstitution of the RTY occurs on the last Friday in June or, when the last Friday in June is the 29th or 30th, reconstitution occurs on the prior Friday. In addition, FTSE Russell adds initial public offerings to the RTY on a quarterly basis based on total market capitalization ranking within the market-adjusted capitalization breaks established during the most recent reconstitution. After membership is determined, a security's shares are adjusted to include only those shares available to the public. This is often referred to as "free float." The purpose of the adjustment is to exclude from market calculations the capitalization that is not available for purchase and is not part of the investable opportunity set.
