(BLMN), Cadence Bank (CADE), Chubb Limited (CB), Cognex Corporation (CGNX), Cushman & Wakefield PLC (CWK), Darling Ingredients Inc. (DAR), D.R. Horton, Inc.

Coupon Payments:	Quarterly. An amount equal to (a) the sum of the Dividend Amounts for each of the Reference Stocks multiplied by (b) the Participation Rate.
Redemption Amount (per Note):	$1,000 x Basket Level Percentage x Participation Rate
Basket Level Percentage:	The sum of the Weighted Reference Stock Performances. For each Reference Stock, its Weighted Reference Stock Performance equals the product of (a) its Reference Stock Performance and (b) its Reference Stock Weighting of 1/20.
Participation Rate:	97.80% for notes offered to brokerage accounts; 99.05% for notes offered to fee-based accounts. Because the Participation Rate is less than 100%, the Basket Level Percentage must exceed approximately 102.25% (for notes sold to brokerage accounts) or 100.96% (for notes sold to fee-based accounts) in order for you to receive a Redemption Amount that exceeds the principal amount. In addition, because the Participation Rate is less than 100%, any coupon payments you may receive on the notes will be less than the applicable Dividend Amounts.
Principal at Risk:	If the Basket Level Percentage does not equal or exceed 102.25% or 100.96%, as applicable, as indicated above, you will lose some or all of the principal amount of your notes.
Exchange Listing:	No
Underwriting Discount and Fees:	1.25% and 0% of the principal amount as to brokerage accounts and fee-based accounts, respectively. In addition, we will pay Raymond James a license fee of 0.60% of the principal amount in connection with its offering of the notes.
