The plan will terminate early if on any annual observation date from the second anniversary onwards if the closing level of the FTSE 100 Index closes at or above its Initial Index Level, in which case investors' original capital will be returned in full in addition to 0.485% income in respect of that month.

If the Final Index Level is more than 35% below its Initial Index Level, then investors will suffer a reduction to their invested capital equal to the percentage the Final Index Level is below its Initial Index Level.
