Market Linked Securities—Auto-Callable with Leveraged Upside
Participation and Fixed Percentage Buffered Downside

Principal at Risk Securities Linked to the S&P 500^® Index due May 4, 2027

n Linked to the S&P 500^® Index (the "Index")

n Unlike ordinary debt securities, the securities do not pay interest or repay a fixed amount of principal at maturity and are subject to potential automatic call upon the terms described below. Whether the securities are automatically called for a fixed call premium or, if not automatically called, the maturity payment amount, will depend, in each case, on the performance of the Index.

n Automatic Call. If the closing level of the Index on the call date occurring approximately one year after issuance is greater than or equal to the starting level, the securities will be automatically called for the face amount plus a call premium of 8.00% of the face amount

n Maturity Payment Amount. If the securities are not automatically called, you will receive a maturity payment amount that could be greater than, equal to or less than the face amount depending on the ending level of the Index as follows:

n If the ending level is greater than the starting level, you will receive the face amount plus a positive return equal to 125% of the percentage increase in the level of the Index from the starting level

n If the ending level is less than the starting level but not by more than the buffer amount of 10%, you will receive the face amount

n If the ending level is less than the starting level by more than the buffer amount, you will receive less than the face amount and have 1-to-1 downside exposure to the decrease in the level of the Index in excess of the buffer amount

n Investors may lose up to 90% of the face amount

n If the securities are automatically called, the positive return on the securities will be limited to the call premium, and you will not participate in any appreciation of the Index beyond the call premium, which may be significant. If the securities are automatically called, you will no longer have the opportunity to participate in any appreciation of the Index at the upside participation rate

n All payments on the securities are subject to the credit risk of Bank of Montreal, and you will have no ability to pursue any securities included in the Index for payment; if Bank of Montreal defaults on its obligations, you could lose some or all of your investment

n No periodic interest payments or dividends

n No exchange listing; designed to be held to maturity or automatic call

On the date of this pricing supplement, the estimated initial value of the securities was $959.94 per security. As discussed in more detail in this pricing supplement, the actual value of the securities at any time will reflect many factors and cannot be predicted with accuracy.

Estimated Value of the Securities

Our estimated initial value of the securities on the pricing date that is set forth on the cover page of this pricing supplement equals the sum of the values of the following hypothetical components:

· a fixed-income debt component with the same tenor as the securities, valued using our internal funding rate for structured notes; and

· one or more derivative transactions relating to the economic terms of the securities.

The internal funding rate used in the determination of the initial estimated value generally represents a discount from the credit spreads for our conventional fixed-rate debt. The value of these derivative transactions is derived from our internal pricing models. These models are based on factors such as the traded market prices of comparable derivative instruments and on other inputs, which include volatility, dividend rates, interest rates and other factors. As a result, the estimated initial value of the securities on the pricing date was determined based on market conditions at that time.

For more information about the estimated initial value of the securities, see “Risk Factors” below.

Investor Considerations

The securities are not appropriate for all investors. The securities may be an appropriate investment for investors who:

n seek a fixed return equal to the call premium if the securities are automatically called on the call date;

n understand that the securities may be automatically called prior to the stated maturity and that the term of the securities may be as short as approximately one year;

n seek 125% leveraged exposure to the upside performance of the Index if the securities are not automatically called and the ending level is greater than the starting level;

n desire to limit downside exposure to the Index through the buffer amount;

n are willing to accept the risk that, if the securities are not automatically called and the ending level is less than the starting level by more than the buffer amount, they will lose some, and possibly up to 90%, of the face amount per security at maturity;

n are willing to forgo interest payments on the securities and dividends on the securities included in the Index; and

n are willing to hold the securities until maturity or automatic call.

The securities may not be an appropriate investment for investors who:

n seek a liquid investment or are unable or unwilling to hold the securities to maturity or automatic call;

n seek a security with a fixed term;

n are unwilling to accept the risk that the securities will not be automatically called and the ending level of the Index may decrease from the starting level by more than the buffer amount;

n seek full return of the face amount of the securities at stated maturity;

n are unwilling to purchase securities with an estimated value as of the pricing date that is lower than the original offering price, as set forth on the cover page;

n seek current income over the term of the securities;

n are unwilling to accept the risk of exposure to the Index;

n seek exposure to the Index but are unwilling to accept the risk/return trade-offs inherent in the maturity payment amount for the securities;

n are unwilling to accept the credit risk of Bank of Montreal to obtain exposure to the Index generally, or to the exposure to the Index that the securities provide specifically; or

n prefer the lower risk of fixed income investments with comparable maturities issued by companies with comparable credit ratings.

The considerations identified above are not exhaustive. Whether or not the securities are an appropriate investment for you will depend on your individual circumstances, and you should reach an investment decision only after you and your investment, legal, tax, accounting and other advisors have carefully considered the appropriateness of an investment in the securities in light of your particular circumstances. You should also review carefully the "Selected Risk Considerations" herein and the "Risk Factors" in the accompanying product supplement for risks related to an investment in the securities.

Selected Risk Considerations

The securities have complex features and investing in the securities will involve risks not associated with an investment in conventional debt securities. Some of the risks that apply to an investment in the securities are summarized below, but we urge you to read the more detailed explanation of the risks relating to the securities generally in the "Risk Factors" section of the accompanying product supplement. You should reach an investment decision only after you have carefully considered with your advisors the appropriateness of an investment in the securities in light of your particular circumstances.

Risks Relating To The Terms And Structure Of The Securities

If The Securities Are Not Automatically Called And The Ending Level Is Less Than The Threshold Level, You Will Lose Some, And Possibly Up To 90%, Of The Face Amount Of Your Securities At Maturity.

If the securities are not automatically called, we will not repay you a fixed amount on the securities on the stated maturity date. The maturity payment amount will depend on the direction of and percentage change in the ending level of the Index relative to the starting level and the other terms of the securities. Because the level of the Index will be subject to market fluctuations, the maturity payment amount may be more or less, and possibly significantly less, than the face amount of your securities.

If the securities are not automatically called and the ending level is less than the threshold level, the maturity payment amount will be less than the face amount and you will have 1-to-1 downside exposure to the decrease in the level of the Index in excess of the buffer amount, resulting in a loss of 1% of the face amount for every 1% decline in the Index in excess of the buffer amount. The threshold level is 90% of the starting level. As a result, if the ending level is less than the threshold level, you will lose some, and possibly up to 90%, of the face amount per security at maturity. This is the case even if the level of the Index is greater than or equal to the starting level or the threshold level at certain times during the term of the securities.

If the securities are not automatically called, even if the ending level is greater than the starting level, the maturity payment amount may only be slightly greater than the face amount, and your yield on the securities may be less than the yield you would earn if you bought a traditional interest-bearing debt security of Bank of Montreal or another issuer with a similar credit rating with the same stated maturity date.

No Periodic Interest Will Be Paid On The Securities.

No periodic payments of interest will be made on the securities. However, if the agreed-upon tax treatment is successfully challenged by the Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS"), you may be required to recognize taxable income over the term of the securities. You should review the section of this pricing supplement entitled "United States Federal Tax Considerations."

If The Securities Are Automatically Called, Your Return Will Be Limited to the Call Premium.

If the securities are automatically called, the positive return on the securities will be limited to the call premium, and you will not participate in any appreciation of the Index beyond the call premium, which may be significant. Accordingly, if the securities are automatically called, the return on the securities may be less than the return in a direct investment in the securities represented by the Index. If the securities are automatically called, you will no longer have the opportunity to participate in any appreciation of the Index at the upside participation rate.

You Will Be Subject To Reinvestment Risk.

If your securities are automatically called, the term of the securities may be reduced to as short as approximately one year. There is no guarantee that you would be able to reinvest the proceeds from an investment in the securities at a comparable return for a similar level of risk in the event the securities are automatically called prior to maturity.

The Securities Are Subject To Credit Risk.

The securities are our obligations and are not, either directly or indirectly, an obligation of any third party. Any amounts payable under the securities are subject to our creditworthiness and you will have no ability to pursue any securities included in the Index for payment. As a result, our actual and perceived creditworthiness may affect the value of the securities and, in the event we were to default on our obligations under the securities, you may not receive any amounts owed to you under the terms of the securities.

Significant Aspects Of The Tax Treatment Of The Securities Are Uncertain.

The tax treatment of the securities is uncertain. We do not plan to request a ruling from the IRS or from the Canada Revenue Agency regarding the tax treatment of the securities, and the IRS, the Canada Revenue Agency or a court may not agree with the tax treatment described in this pricing supplement and/or the accompanying product supplement.

The IRS has issued a notice indicating that it and the U.S. Treasury Department are actively considering whether, among other issues, a holder should be required to accrue interest over the term of an instrument such as the securities even though that holder will not receive any payments with respect to the securities until maturity or earlier sale or exchange and whether all or part of the gain a holder may recognize upon sale, exchange or maturity of an instrument such as the securities should be treated as ordinary income. The outcome of this process is uncertain and could apply on a retroactive basis.

Please read carefully the section entitled “United States Federal Tax Considerations” in this pricing supplement, the section entitled “United States Federal Income Taxation” in the accompanying prospectus and the section entitled “United States Federal Tax Considerations” in the accompanying product supplement. You should consult your tax advisor about your own tax situation.

For a discussion of the Canadian federal income tax consequences of investing in the securities, please read the section entitled “Certain Income Tax Consequences — Certain Canadian Income Tax Considerations” in the accompanying prospectus supplement. You should consult your tax advisor about your own tax situation.

The Call Settlement Date Or The Stated Maturity Date May Be Postponed If The Call Date Or The Final Calculation Day Is Postponed.

The call date or the final calculation day will be postponed if the originally scheduled call date or final calculation day is not a trading day or if the calculation agent determines that a market disruption event has occurred or is continuing on that day. If such a postponement occurs with respect to the call date, then the call settlement date will be postponed. If such a postponement occurs with respect to the final calculation day, the stated maturity date will be the later of (i) the initial stated maturity date and (ii) three business days after the final calculation day as postponed.

Risks Relating To The Estimated Value Of The Securities And Any Secondary Market

The Estimated Value Of The Securities On The Pricing Date, Based On Our Proprietary Pricing Models, Is Less Than The Original Offering Price.

Our initial estimated value of the securities is only an estimate, and is based on a number of factors. The original offering price of the securities exceeds our initial estimated value, because costs associated with offering, structuring and hedging the securities are included in the original offering price, but are not included in the estimated value. These costs include the agent discount and selling concessions, the profits that we and our affiliates and/or the agent and its affiliates expect to realize for assuming the risks in hedging our obligations under the securities, and the estimated cost of hedging these obligations.

The Terms Of The Securities Were Not Determined By Reference To The Credit Spreads For Our Conventional Fixed-Rate Debt.

To determine the terms of the securities, we used an internal funding rate that represents a discount from the credit spreads for our conventional fixed-rate debt. As a result, the terms of the securities are less favorable to you than if we had used a higher funding rate.

The Estimated Value Of The Securities Is Not An Indication Of The Price, If Any, At Which WFS Or Any Other Person May Be Willing To Buy The Securities From You In The Secondary Market.

Our initial estimated value of the securities as of the date of this pricing supplement was derived using our internal pricing models. This value is based on market conditions and other relevant factors, which include volatility of the Index, dividend rates and interest rates. Different pricing models and assumptions, including those used by the agent, its affiliates or other market participants, could provide values for the securities that are greater than or less than our initial estimated value. In addition, market conditions and other relevant factors after the pricing date are expected to change, possibly rapidly, and our assumptions may prove to be incorrect. After the pricing date, the value of the securities could change dramatically due to changes in market conditions, our creditworthiness, and the other factors set forth in this pricing supplement. These changes are likely to impact the price, if any, at which WFS or its affiliates or any other party (including us or our affiliates) would be willing to purchase the securities from you in any secondary market transactions. Our initial estimated value does not represent a minimum price at which WFS or any other party (including us or our affiliates) would be willing to buy your securities in any secondary market at any time.

WFS has advised us that if it, WFA or any of their affiliates makes a secondary market in the securities at any time, the secondary market price offered by it, WFA or any of their affiliates will be affected by changes in market conditions and other factors described in the next risk factor. WFS has advised us that if it, WFA or any of their affiliates makes a secondary market in the securities at any time up to the issue date or during the 3-month period following the issue date, the secondary market price offered by it, WFA or any of its affiliates will be increased by an amount reflecting a portion of the costs associated with selling, structuring and hedging the securities that are included in their original offering price. Because this portion of the costs is not fully deducted upon issuance, WFS has advised us that any secondary market price it, WFA or any of their affiliates offers during this period will be higher than it otherwise would be after this period, as any secondary market price offered after this period will reflect the full deduction of the costs as described above. WFS has advised us that the amount of this increase in the secondary market price will decline steadily to zero over this 3-month period. WFS has advised us that, if you hold the securities through an account with WFS, WFA or any of their affiliates, WFS expects that this increase will also be reflected in the value indicated for the securities on your brokerage account statement. If you hold your securities through an account at a broker-dealer other than WFS, WFA or any of their affiliates, the value of the securities on your brokerage account statement may be different than if you held your securities at WFS, WFA or any of their affiliates.

The Value Of The Securities Prior To Stated Maturity Will Be Affected By Numerous Factors, Some Of Which Are Related In Complex Ways.

The value of the securities prior to stated maturity will be affected by the then-current level of the Index, interest rates at that time and a number of other factors, some of which are interrelated in complex ways. The effect of any one factor may be offset or magnified by the effect of another factor. The following factors, which we refer to as the “derivative component factors,” and which are described in more detail in the accompanying product supplement, are expected to affect the value of the securities: performance of the Index; interest rates; volatility of the Index; time remaining to maturity; and dividend yields on securities included in the Index. When we refer to the “value” of your security, we mean the value you could receive for your security if you are able to sell it in the open market before the stated maturity date.

PRS-9

Market Linked Securities—Auto-Callable with Leveraged Upside Participation and Fixed Percentage Buffered Downside

Principal at Risk Securities Linked to the S&P 500^® Index due May 4, 2027

In addition to the derivative component factors, the value of the securities will be affected by actual or anticipated changes in our creditworthiness. The value of the securities will also be limited by the automatic call feature because if the securities are automatically called, your return will be limited to the call premium, and you will not receive the potentially higher payment that may have been paid if you had held the securities until the stated maturity date. You should understand that the impact of one of the factors specified above, such as a change in interest rates, may offset some or all of any change in the value of the securities attributable to another factor, such as a change in the level of the Index. Because numerous factors are expected to affect the value of the securities, changes in the level of the Index may not result in a comparable change in the value of the securities.

The Securities Will Not Be Listed On Any Securities Exchange And We Do Not Expect A Trading Market For The Securities To Develop.

The securities will not be listed or displayed on any securities exchange or any automated quotation system. Although the agent and/or its affiliates may purchase the securities from holders, they are not obligated to do so and are not required to make a market for the securities. There can be no assurance that a secondary market will develop. Because we do not expect that any market makers will participate in a secondary market for the securities, the price at which you may be able to sell your securities is likely to depend on the price, if any, at which the agent is willing to buy your securities.

If a secondary market does exist, it may be limited. Accordingly, there may be a limited number of buyers if you decide to sell your securities prior to stated maturity. This may affect the price you receive upon such sale. Consequently, you should be willing to hold the securities to stated maturity.

Risks Relating To The Index

Whether The Securities Will Be Automatically Called And The Maturity Payment Amount Will Depend Upon The Performance Of The Index And Therefore The Securities Are Subject To The Following Risks, Each As Discussed In More Detail In The Accompanying Product Supplement.

· Investing In The Securities Is Not The Same As Investing In The Index. Investing in the securities is not equivalent to investing in the Index. As an investor in the securities, your return will not reflect the return you would realize if you actually owned and held the securities included in the Index for a period similar to the term of the securities because you will not receive any dividend payments, distributions or any other payments paid on those securities. As a holder of the securities, you will not have any voting rights or any other rights that holders of the securities included in the Index would have.

· Historical Levels Of The Index Should Not Be Taken As An Indication Of The Future Performance Of The Index During The Term Of The Securities.

· Changes That Affect The Index May Adversely Affect The Value Of The Securities, Whether They Will Be Automatically Called And The Maturity Payment Amount.

· We Cannot Control Actions By Any Of The Unaffiliated Companies Whose Securities Are Included In The Index.

· We And Our Affiliates Have No Affiliation With The Index Sponsor And Have Not Independently Verified Its Public Disclosure Of Information.

Risks Relating To Conflicts Of Interest

Our Economic Interests And Those Of Any Dealer Participating In The Offering Are Potentially Adverse To Your Interests.

You should be aware of the following ways in which our economic interests and those of any dealer participating in the distribution of the securities, which we refer to as a "participating dealer," are potentially adverse to your interests as an investor in the securities. In engaging in certain of the activities described below and as discussed in more detail in the accompanying product supplement, our affiliates or any participating dealer or its affiliates may take actions that may adversely affect the value of and your return on the securities, and in so doing they will have no obligation to consider your interests as an investor in the securities. Our affiliates or any participating dealer or its affiliates may realize a profit from these activities even if investors do not receive a favorable investment return on the securities.

· The calculation agent is our affiliate and may be required to make discretionary judgments that affect the return you receive on the securities. BMOCM, which is our affiliate, will be the calculation agent for the securities. As calculation agent, BMOCM will determine any values of the Index and make any other determinations necessary to calculate any payments on the securities. In making these determinations, BMOCM may be required to make discretionary judgments that may adversely affect any payments on the securities. See the sections entitled "General Terms of the Securities— Certain Terms for Securities Linked to an Index—Market Disruption Events,"—Adjustments to an Index" and "—Discontinuance of an Index" in the accompanying product supplement. In making these discretionary judgments, the fact that BMOCM is our affiliate may cause it to have economic interests that are adverse to your interests as an investor in the securities, and our determinations as calculation agent may adversely affect your return on the securities.

Hypothetical Examples Of Payment Upon An Automatic Call Or At Stated Maturity

Example 1. The closing level of the Index on the call date is greater than the starting level, and the securities are automatically called on the call date:

	The Index
Hypothetical starting level:	100.00
Hypothetical closing level on call date:	125.00

Because the hypothetical closing level of the Index on the call date is greater than the hypothetical starting level, the securities are automatically called on the call date and you will receive on the call settlement date the face amount of your securities plus a call premium of 8.00% of the face amount. Even though the Index appreciated by 25.00% from its starting level to its closing level on the call date in this example, your return is limited to the call premium of 8.00%.

On the call settlement date, you would receive $1,080.00 per security.

Example 2. The securities are not automatically called. The maturity payment amount is greater than the face amount:

	The Index
Hypothetical starting level:	100.00
Hypothetical closing level on the call date:	75.00
Hypothetical ending level:	110.00
Hypothetical threshold level:	90.00
Hypothetical index return (ending level – starting level)/starting level:	10.00%

Because the hypothetical closing level of the Index on the call date is less than the hypothetical starting level, the securities are not automatically called. Because the hypothetical ending level is greater than the hypothetical starting level, the maturity payment amount per security would be equal to the face amount of $1,000 plus a positive return equal to:

$1,000 × index return × upside participation rate

$1,000 × 10.00% × 125.00%

= $125.00

On the stated maturity date you would receive $1,125.00 per security.

Example 3. The securities are not automatically called. Maturity payment amount is equal to the face amount:

	The Index
Hypothetical starting level:	100.00
Hypothetical closing level on the call date:	75.00
Hypothetical ending level:	95.00
Hypothetical threshold level:	90.00
Hypothetical index return (ending level – starting level)/starting level:	-5.00%

Because the hypothetical closing level of the Index on the call date is less than the hypothetical starting level, the securities are not automatically called. Because the hypothetical ending level is less than the hypothetical starting level, but not by more than the buffer amount, you would not lose any of the face amount of your securities.

On the stated maturity date you would receive $1,000.00 per security.

Example 4. The securities are not automatically called. Maturity payment amount is less than the face amount:

	The Index
Hypothetical starting level:	100.00
Hypothetical closing level on the call date:	75.00
Hypothetical ending level:	50.00
Hypothetical threshold level:	90.00
Hypothetical index return (ending level – starting level)/starting level:	-50.00%

Because the hypothetical closing level of the Index on the call date is less than the hypothetical starting level, the securities are not automatically called. Because the hypothetical ending level is less than the hypothetical starting level by more than the buffer amount, you would lose a portion of the face amount of your securities and receive the maturity payment amount equal to:

$1,000 + [$1,000 × (index return + buffer amount)]

$1,000 + [$1,000 × (-50.00% + 10%)]

=$600.00

On the stated maturity date you would receive $600.00 per security.

The S&P 500^® Index ("SPX")

The SPX measures the performance of the large-cap segment of the U.S. market. The calculation of the level of the SPX is based on the relative value of the aggregate market value of the common stocks of 500 companies as of a particular time compared to the aggregate average market value of the common stocks of 500 similar companies during the base period of the years 1941 through 1943.

S&P calculates the SPX by reference to the prices of the constituent stocks of the SPX without taking account of the value of dividends paid on those stocks. As a result, the return on the securities will not reflect the return you would realize if you actually owned the SPX constituent stocks and received the dividends paid on those stocks.

Additional information regarding the SPX may be obtained from the SPX website: https://www.spglobal.com/spdji/en/indices/equity/sp-500/. We are not incorporating by reference the website or any material it includes in this document.

Eligibility Criteria

Stocks must meet the following eligibility factors to be considered eligible for the SPX:

Domicile. The issuer of the security must be a U.S.-domiciled company. The incorporation and/or registration, operational headquarters location and primary stock exchange listing are the principal factors determining country of domicile. Other factors considered include the geographic breakdown of revenue and assets, ownership information, location of officers, directors and employees, investor perception and other factors deemed to be relevant by the Index Committee. All final domicile determinations are subject to review by the Index Committee.

Security Filing Type. The company issuing the security satisfies the Securities Exchange Act's periodic reporting obligations by filing certain required forms for domestic issuers, such as but not limited to: Form 10-K annual reports, Form 10-Q quarterly reports and Form 8-K current reports.

Exchange Listing. The security must have a primary listing on one of the following U.S. exchanges: NYSE; Nasdaq Capital Market; NYSE Arca; Cboe BZX; NYSE American; Cboe BYX; Nasdaq Global Select Market; Cboe EDGA; Nasdaq Select Market; and Cboe EDGX. Over-the-counter (OTC) markets including Pink Open Market, do not satisfy this criterion.

Organizational Structure and Share Type. The issuer of the security must be a corporation (including equity and mortgage REITs) and the security must be common stock (i.e., shares). The following organizational structures and share types do not satisfy this criterion: business development companies; preferred stock; limited partnerships; convertible preferred stock; master limited partnerships; unit trusts; limited liability companies; equity warrants; closed-end funds; convertible bonds; exchange-traded funds; investment trusts; exchange-traded notes; rights; royalty trusts; American depositary receipts; and special purpose acquisition companies.

Tracking Stocks. Tracking stocks are not eligible for inclusion.

Multiple Share Classes. Effective with the September 2015 rebalance, consolidated share class lines will no longer be included in the SPX. Each share class line will be subject to public float and liquidity criteria individually, but the company’s total market capitalization will be used to evaluate each share class line. This may result in one listed share class line of a company being included in the SPX while a second listed share class line of the same company is excluded.

Market Capitalization. In order for a security to be eligible, the issuer of the security must have a total market capitalization of $15.8 billion or more.

Investable Weight Factor (IWF). A security must have an IWF of at least 0.10 as of the rebalancing effective date. The IWF is calculated by dividing the available float shares by the total shares outstanding. Available float shares are defined as the total shares outstanding less shares held by control holders (i.e., shareholder who purchase shares for control and not investment). Control holders generally include, but are not limited to: officers and directors; private equity, venture capital and special equity firms; asset managers and insurance companies with direct board of director representation; shares held by another publicly traded company; holders of restricted shares; company-sponsored employee share plans/trusts, defined contribution plans/savings and investment plans; foundations or family trusts associated with the company; government entities at all levels except government retirement/pension funds; sovereign wealth funds; and any individual person listed as a 5% or greater stakeholder in a company as reported in regulatory filings (a 5% threshold is used as detailed information on holders and their relationship to the company is generally not available for holders below that threshold). In addition, treasury stock, stock options, equity participation units, warrants, preferred stock, convertible stock and rights are not part of the float. In most cases, an IWF is reported to the nearest one percentage point. This calculation is subject to a 5% minimum threshold for control blocks. For example, if a company’s officers and directors hold 3% of the company’s shares and no other control group holds 5% of the company’s shares, the index sponsor would assign that company an IWF of 1.00, as no control group meets the 5% threshold. However, if a company’s officers and directors hold 3% of the company’s shares and another control group holds 20% of the company’s shares, the index sponsor would assign an IWF of 0.77, reflecting the fact that 23% of the company’s outstanding shares are considered to be held for control.

Liquidity. The security must trade a minimum of 250,000 shares in each of the six months leading up to the evaluation date and have a float-adjusted liquidity ratio (defined as the annual dollar value traded divided by the float-adjusted market capitalization) greater than or equal to 0.75 at the time of addition to the SPX. Current constituents have no minimum requirement.

Financial Viability. The sum of the most recent four consecutive quarters’ Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) earnings (net income excluding discontinued operations) should be positive, as should the most recent quarter. For equity real estate investment trusts (REITs), financial viability is based on GAAP earnings and/or Funds From Operations (FFO), if reported. For IPOs, the company must be traded on an eligible exchange for at least twelve months (for former SPACs, the index sponsor considers the de-SPAC transaction to be an event equivalent to an IPO, and twelve months of trading post the de-SPAC event are required before a former SPAC can be considered for inclusion in the SPX. Spin-offs or in-specie distributions from existing constituents do not need to be traded on an eligible exchange for twelve months prior to their inclusion in the SPX).

Index Construction

Index constituents are selected from the S&P Total Market Index, which measures the performance of the broad U.S. market and includes all eligible U.S. common equities. Constituent selection is at the discretion of the Index Committee and is based on the eligibility criteria. The SPX has a fixed constituent count of 500. Sector balance, as measured by a comparison of each Global Industry Classification Standard (GICS^®) sector’s weight in the SPX with its weight in the S&P Total Market Index, in the relevant market capitalization range, is also considered in the selection of companies for the SPX.

The SPX is weighted by float-adjusted market capitalization. Under float adjustment, the share counts used in calculating the SPX reflect only those shares that are available to investors, not all of a company’s outstanding shares. Float adjustment excludes shares that are closely held by control holders.

Index Calculation

The SPX is calculated using a base-weighted aggregate methodology. The level of the SPX reflects the total market value of all 500 component stocks relative to the base period of the years 1941 through 1943. An indexed number is used to represent the results of this calculation in order to make the level easier to use and track over time. The actual total market value of the component stocks during the base period of the years 1941 through 1943 has been set to an indexed level of 10. This is often indicated by the notation 1941-43 = 10. In practice, the daily calculation of the SPX is computed by dividing the total market value of the component stocks by the “index divisor.” By itself, the index divisor is an arbitrary number. However, in the context of the calculation of the SPX, it serves as a link to the original base period level of the SPX. The index divisor keeps the SPX comparable over time and is the manipulation point for all adjustments to the SPX, which is explained further in the section "Index Maintenance" below.

Index Maintenance

Changes to index composition are made on an as-needed basis. There is no scheduled reconstitution. Rather, changes in response to corporate actions and market developments can be made at any time. Index additions and deletions are announced with at least three business days advance notice. Less than three business days’ notice may be given at the discretion of the Index Committee.

Index maintenance includes monitoring and completing the adjustments for company additions and deletions, share changes, stock splits, stock dividends and stock price adjustments due to company restructuring or spinoffs. Some corporate actions, such as stock splits and stock dividends, require changes in the common shares outstanding and the stock prices of the companies in the SPX and do not require index divisor adjustments.

To prevent the level of the SPX from changing due to corporate actions, corporate actions which affect the total market value of the SPX require an index divisor adjustment. By adjusting the index divisor for the change in market value, the level of the SPX remains constant and does not reflect the corporate actions of individual companies in the SPX. Index divisor adjustments are made after the close of trading and after the calculation of the SPX closing level.

Share counts are updated to the latest publicly available filings on a quarterly basis. IWF changes will only be made at the quarterly review if the change represents at least 5% of total current shares outstanding and is related to a single corporate action that did not qualify for the accelerated implementation rule, regardless of whether there is an associated share change. Certain mandatory actions, such as M&A driven share/IWF changes, stock splits and mandatory distributions, are implemented when they occur and not subject to a minimum threshold for implementation. Material share/IWF changes resulting from certain non-mandatory corporate actions follow the accelerated implementation rule.

Accelerated Implementation Rule

Public offerings. Public offerings of new company-issued shares and/or existing shares offered by selling shareholders, including block sales and spot secondaries, will be eligible for accelerated implementation treatment if the size of the event meets the materiality threshold criteria: (a) at least $150 million and (b) at least 5% of the pre-event total shares. In addition to the materiality threshold, public offerings must be underwritten, have a publicly available prospectus, offering document, or prospectus summary filed with the relevant authorities and have a publicly available confirmation from an official source that the offering has been completed. For public offerings that involve a concurrent combination of new company shares and existing shares offered by selling shareholders, both events are implemented if either of the public offerings represent at least 5% of total shares and US $150 million. Any concurrent share repurchase by the affected company will also be included in the implementation.

Dutch Auctions, Self-tender Offer Buybacks and Split-off Exchange Offers. These non-mandatory corporate action types will be eligible for accelerated implementation treatment regardless of size once the final results are publicly announced and verified by S&P Dow Jones Indices LLC (the "index sponsor").

For non-mandatory corporate actions subject to the accelerated implementation rule with a size of at least $1 billion, the index sponsor will apply the share change, and any resulting IWF change, using the latest share and ownership information publicly available at the time of the announcement, even if the offering size is below the 5% threshold.

All non-mandatory events not covered by the accelerated implementation rule (including but not limited to private placements, acquisition of private companies and conversion of non-index share lines) will be implemented quarterly coinciding with the third Friday of the third month in each calendar quarter.

Accelerated implementation for events less than $1 billion will include an adjustment to the company’s IWF only to the extent that such an IWF change helps the new float share total mimic the shares available in the offering. To minimize unnecessary turnover, these IWF changes do not need to meet any minimum threshold requirement for implementation. Any IWF change resulting in an IWF of 0.96 or greater is rounded up to 1.00 at the next annual IWF review.

United States Federal Tax Considerations

The following discussion supplements, and to the extent applicable supersedes, the discussion in the accompanying product supplement under the caption “United States Federal Tax Considerations.”

In the opinion of our special U.S. tax counsel, Ashurst LLP, it would generally be reasonable to treat a security with terms described herein as a pre-paid cash-settled derivative contract in respect of the Index for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and the terms of the securities require a holder (in the absence of a change in law or an administrative or judicial ruling to the contrary) to treat the securities for all tax purposes in accordance with such characterization. However, the U.S. federal income tax consequences of your investment in the securities are uncertain and the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) could assert that the securities should be taxed in a manner that is different from that described in the preceding sentence. If this treatment is respected, a U.S. holder should generally recognize capital gain or loss upon the sale, exchange, redemption or payment on maturity in an amount equal to the difference between the amount it received at such time and the amount that it paid for its securities. Such gain or loss should generally be long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. holder has held the securities for more than one year. Non-U.S. holders should consult the section entitled "United States Federal Tax Considerations - Tax Consequences to Non-U.S. Holders" in the underlying product supplement.

Under Section 871(m) of the Code, a “dividend equivalent” payment is treated as a dividend from sources within the United States. Such payments generally would be subject to a 30% U.S. withholding tax if paid to a non-U.S. holder. Under U.S. Treasury Department 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, directly or indirectly, 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, the IRS has issued guidance that states that the U.S. Treasury Department and the IRS intend to amend the effective dates of the U.S. Treasury Department regulations to provide 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, 2025. Based on our determination that the securities are not delta-one instruments, non-U.S. holders should not be subject to withholding on dividend equivalent payments, if any, under the securities. However, it is possible that the securities could be treated as deemed reissued for U.S. federal income tax purposes upon the occurrence of certain events affecting the Index or the securities (for example, upon the Index rebalancing), and following such occurrence the securities 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 Index or the securities should consult their tax advisors as to the application of the dividend equivalent withholding tax in the context of the securities and their other transactions. If any payments are treated as dividend equivalents subject to withholding, we (or the applicable withholding agent) would be entitled to withhold taxes without being required to pay any additional amounts with respect to amounts so withheld.
