This could result in the loss of any return, including your original deposit.POTENTIAL RETURNSUnlike direct investments, Quantum PLUS 26 Deposit does not pay dividends and therefore there is anopportunity cost to depositors in this Product when compared to investing in the index constituents directly.If your Market Choice remains flat or rises between the Start Date and the End Date then your return maybe less than it would have been had you invested directly in the stock market, as depending on yourMarket Choice you may only receive a proportion of the Market Performance and the End Level usedto calculate the Market Performance is subject to averaging over the final 18 months of the depositTerm. However, unlike a direct investment in a stock market, Quantum PLUS 26 Deposit protectsyour deposit against potential stock market losses.10

AVERAGINGAveraging of the 19 closing levels to calculate the End Level as described as per above has the effect of smoothing outvolatility. If your Market Choice declines over the final 18 months of the Term of PLUS, averaging may produce a higherreturn than a return if no averaging applied. If your Market Choice rises over the final 18 months of the Term of PLUS,averaging may produce a lower return than a return if no averaging applied.INDEX LEVELFalling market over thefinal 18 monthsRising market over thefinal 18 monthsStart Level100100Observation date 1120120Observation date 2119121Observation date 3118122Observation date 4117123Observation date 5116124Observation date 6115125Observation date 7114126Observation date 8113127Observation date 9112128Observation date 10111129Observation date 11110130Observation date 12109131Observation date 13108132Observation date 14107133Observation date 15106134Observation date 16105135Observation date 17104136Observation date 18103137Observation date 19102138End Level with averaging applied111129Market Performance with averaging applied11%29%End Level if averaging had not been applied102138Market Performance if averaging had not been applied2%38%Figures are illustrative only for the purposes of demonstrating how averaging works.
