Hypothetical Payout Profile (Maturity Payment Amount)
If the Securities are not automatically called prior to maturity and the Ending Price of the Lowest Performing Underlying Stock on the Final Calculation Day is less than its Threshold Price, you will lose more than 30%, and possibly all, of the principal amount of your Securities at maturity.
Any return on the Securities will be limited to the sum of your Contingent Coupon Payments, if any. You will not participate in any appreciation of any Underlying Stock, but you will have full downside exposure to decreases in the value of the Lowest Performing Underlying Stock on the Final Calculation Day if the Ending Price of that Underlying Stock is less than its Threshold Price.
The initial estimated value of the Securities as of the pricing date is expected to be between $906.75 and $966.75 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-21 of the accompanying preliminary pricing supplement for additional information.

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.
●
Your return on the Securities is limited to the return represented by the Contingent Coupon Payments, if any, over the term of the Securities.
●
The Securities are subject to a potential automatic call, which would limit your ability to receive the Contingent Coupon Payments over the full term of the Securities.
●
You may not receive any Contingent Coupon Payments.
●
Because the Securities are linked to the lowest performing (and not the average performance) of the Underlying Stocks, you may not receive any return on the Securities and may lose a significant portion or all of your principal amount even if the stock closing price of one Underlying Stock is always greater than or equal to its Coupon Barrier or Threshold Price, as applicable.
●
Higher Contingent Coupon Rates are associated with greater risk.
●
Your return on the Securities may be less than the yield on a conventional debt security of comparable maturity.
●
The Contingent Coupon Payment, payment upon automatic call or Maturity Payment Amount, as applicable, will not reflect the stock closing price of the Underlying Stocks other than on the Calculation Days.
●
A Contingent Coupon Payment Date, a Call Settlement Date and the Maturity Date may be postponed if a Calculation Day is postponed.
●
We are a finance subsidiary and, as such, have no independent assets, operations or revenues.
●
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.
●
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 Wells Fargo Securities, LLC (“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.
●
Any payments on the Securities will depend upon the performance of the Underlying Stocks, and therefore the Securities are subject to the following risks, each as discussed in more detail in the accompanying product supplement.
o
The Securities may become linked to the common stock of a company other than an original Underlying Stock Issuer.
o
We cannot control actions by an Underlying Stock Issuer.
o
We and our affiliates have no affiliation with any Underlying Stock Issuer and have not independently verified any public disclosure of information.
o
You have limited anti-dilution protection.
●
The U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Securities are uncertain, and may be adverse to a holder of the Securities.
