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 automatically called, the positive return on the Securities will be limited to the Call Premium, even if the closing level of the Lowest Performing Underlying on the Call Date significantly exceeds its Starting Value. If the Securities are automatically called, you will not have the opportunity to participate in any appreciation of either Underlying at the Upside Participation Rate.
If the Securities are not automatically called and the Ending Value of the Lowest Performing Underlying is less than its Threshold Value, you will lose more than 30%, and possibly all, of the principal amount of your Securities on the Maturity Date.
The initial estimated value of the Securities as of the pricing date is expected to be between $924.25 and $964.25 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 “Selected Risk Considerations” beginning on page PS-9 of the accompanying preliminary pricing supplement and “Structuring the Securities” on page PS-23 of the accompanying preliminary pricing supplement for additional information.

The Securities have complex features and investing in the Securities involves risks not associated with an investment in conventional debt securities. Potential purchasers of the Securities should consider the information in “Selected Risk Considerations” beginning on page PS-8 of the accompanying preliminary pricing supplement and in “Risk Factors” 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.
This introductory term sheet does not provide all of the information that an investor should consider prior to making an investment decision.

Selected Risk Considerations
The risks set forth below, as well as additional risks related to this investment, are discussed in detail in the “Selected Risk Considerations” 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.
   
The Securities do not bear interest.
   
If the Securities are automatically called, your return will be limited to the Call Premium.
   
The Call Premium or Maturity Payment Amount, as applicable, will not reflect the levels of Lowest Performing Underlying other than on the Call Date or the Final Calculation Day, as applicable.
   
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.
   
The Call Settlement Date or the Maturity Date may be postponed if the Call Date or Final Calculation Day is postponed.
   
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’s 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.
   
Changes that affect the Underlyings may adversely affect the value of the Securities and any payments on the Securities.
   
We and our affiliates have no affiliation with the index sponsor and have not independently verified their public disclosure of information.
   
The Securities are subject to risks associated with small-size capitalization companies.
   
The U.S. federal income and estate tax consequences of the Securities are uncertain, and may be adverse to a holder of the Securities.
