Autocallable Market-Linked Step Up Notes
Linked to the EURO STOXX 50® Index, due January 30, 2020



Summary

The Autocallable Market-Linked Step Up Notes Linked to the EURO STOXX 50® Index, due January 30, 2020 (the "notes") are our senior unsecured debt
securities. The notes are not guaranteed or insured by the CDIC or the FDIC, and are not, either directly or indirectly, an obligation of any third party. T he
not e s w ill ra nk e qua lly w it h a ll of our ot he r unse c ure d se nior de bt . Any pa ym e nt s due on t he not e s, inc luding a ny re pa ym e nt
of princ ipa l, w ill be subje c t t o t he c re dit risk of BN S. The notes will be automatically called at the applicable Call Amount if the Observation
Level of the Market Measure, which is the EURO STOXX 50® Index (the "Index"), is equal to or greater than the Call Level on the relevant Observation Date.
If not called, at maturity, the notes provide you with a Step Up Payment if the Ending Value of the Index is equal to or greater than the Starting Value, but is
not greater than the Step Up Value. If the Ending Value is greater than the Step Up Value, you will participate on a 1-for-1 basis in the increase in the level
of the Index above the Starting Value. If the Ending Value is less than the Starting Value, you will lose all or a portion of the principal amount of your notes.
Payments on the notes, including the amount you receive at maturity or upon an automatic call, will be calculated based on the $10 principal amount per unit
and will depend on the performance of the Index, subject to our credit risk. See "Terms of the Notes" below.

The economic terms of the notes (including the Call Premiums and Call Amounts) are based on our internal funding rate, which is the rate we would pay to
borrow funds through the issuance of market-linked notes, and the economic terms of certain related hedging arrangements. Our internal funding rate is
typically lower than the rate we would pay when we issue conventional fixed rate debt securities. This difference in funding rate, as well as the underwriting
discount and the hedging related charge described below, reduced the economic terms of the notes to you and the initial estimated value of the notes on the
pricing date. Due to these factors, the public offering price you pay to purchase the notes is greater than the initial estimated value of the notes.

On the cover page of this term sheet, we have provided the initial estimated value for the notes. This estimated value was determined by reference to our
internal pricing models, which take into consideration certain factors, such as our internal funding rate on the pricing date and our assumptions about market
parameters. For more information about the initial estimated value and the structuring of the notes, see "Structuring the Notes" on page TS-11.

Risk Factors

There are important differences between the notes and a conventional debt security. An investment in the notes involves significant risks,
including those listed below. You should carefully review the more detailed explanation of risks relating to the notes in the "Risk Factors"
sections beginning on page PS-7 of product prospectus supplement EQUITY INDICES SUN-1, page S-2 of the prospectus supplement, and
page 6 of the prospectus identified above. We also urge you to consult your investment, legal, tax, accounting, and other advisors before you
invest in the notes.


If the notes are not automatically called, depending on the performance of the Index as measured shortly before the maturity date, your

investment may result in a loss; there is no guaranteed return of principal.


Your return on the notes may be less than the yield you could earn by owning a conventional fixed or floating rate debt security of

comparable maturity.


If the notes are called, your investment return is limited to the return represented by the applicable Call Premium.



Your investment return may be less than a comparable investment directly in the stocks included in the Index.



Payments on the notes are subject to our credit risk, and actual or perceived changes in our creditworthiness are expected to affect the

value of the notes. If we become insolvent or are unable to pay our obligations, you may lose your entire investment.


Our initial estimated value of the notes is lower than the public offering price of the notes. Our initial estimated value of the notes is only

an estimate. The public offering price of the notes exceeds our initial estimated value because it includes costs associated with selling
and structuring the notes, as well as hedging our obligations under the notes with a third party, which may include MLPF&S or one of its
affiliates. These costs include the underwriting discount and an expected hedging related charge, as further described in "Structuring
the Notes" on page TS-11.


Our initial estimated value of the notes does not represent future values of the notes and may differ from others' estimates. Our initial

estimated value of the notes is determined by reference to our internal pricing models when the terms of the notes are set. These
pricing models consider certain factors, such as our internal funding rate on the pricing date, the expected term of the notes, market
conditions and other relevant factors existing at that time, and our assumptions about market parameters, which can include volatility,
dividend rates, interest rates and other factors. Different pricing models and assumptions could provide valuations for the notes that are
https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/9631/000110465917004972/a17-3403_4424b2.htm[1/31/2017 12:15:19 PM]


different from our initial estimated value. In addition, market conditions and other relevant factors in the future may change, and any of
our assumptions may prove to be incorrect. On future dates, the market value of the notes could change significantly based on, among
other things, the performance of the Index, changes in market conditions, our creditworthiness, interest rate movements and other
relevant factors. These factors, together with various credit, market and economic factors over the term of the notes, are expected to
reduce the price at which you may be able to sell the notes in any secondary market and will affect the value of the notes in complex
and unpredictable ways. Our initial estimated value does not represent a minimum price at which we or any agents would be willing to
buy your notes in any secondary market (if any exists) at any time.


Our initial estimated value is not determined by reference to credit spreads or the borrowing rate we would pay for our conventional

fixed-rate debt securities. The internal funding rate used in the determination of our initial estimated value of the notes generally
represents a discount from the credit spreads for our conventional fixed-rate debt securities and the borrowing rate we would pay for
our conventional fixed-rate debt securities. If we were to use the interest rate implied by the credit spreads for our conventional fixed-
rate debt securities, or the borrowing rate we would pay for our conventional fixed-rate debt securities, we would expect the economic
terms of the notes to be more favorable to you. Consequently, our use of an internal funding rate for the notes would have an adverse
effect on the economic terms of the notes, the initial estimated value of the notes on the pricing date, and the price at which you may be
able to sell the notes in any secondary market.


A trading market is not expected to develop for the notes. Neither we nor MLPF&S is obligated to make a market for, or to repurchase,

the notes. There is no assurance that any party will be willing to purchase your notes at any price in any secondary market.


Your return on the notes and the value of the notes may be affected by exchange rate movements and factors affecting the

international securities markets, including economic, financial, social and political conditions. Specifically, the stocks included in the
Index are issued by companies located within the Eurozone. The Eurozone is and has been undergoing severe financial stress, and the
political, legal and regulatory ramifications are impossible to predict. Changes within the Eurozone could adversely affect the
performance of the Index and, consequently, the value of the notes.


Our business, hedging and trading activities, and those of MLPF&S and our respective affiliates (including trades in shares of

companies included in the Index), and any hedging and trading activities we, MLPF&S or our respective affiliates engage in for our
clients' accounts, may affect the market value and return of the notes and may create conflicts of interest with you.


The Index sponsor may adjust the Index in a way that may adversely affect its level and your interests, and the Index sponsor has no

obligation to consider your interests.


You will have no rights of a holder of the securities included in the Index, and you will not be entitled to receive securities or dividends

or other distributions by the issuers of those securities.

While we, MLPF&S or our respective affiliates may from time to time own securities of companies included in the Index, we, MLPF&S

and our respective affiliates do not control any company included in the Index, and have not verified any disclosure made by any other
company.


There may be potential conflicts of interest involving the calculation agent, which is MLPF&S. We have the right to appoint and remove

the calculation agent.


The U.S. federal income tax consequences of the notes are uncertain, and may be adverse to a holder of the notes. See "Summary of

U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences" below.


The conclusion that no portion of the interest paid or credited or deemed to be paid or credited on a note will be "Participating Debt

Interest" subject to Canadian withholding tax is based in part on the current published administrative position of the CRA. There cannot
be any assurance that CRA's current published administrative practice will not be subject to change, including potential expansion in
the current administrative interpretation of Participating Debt Interest subject to Canadian withholding tax. If, at any time, the interest
paid or credited or deemed to be paid or credited on a note is subject to Canadian withholding tax, you will receive an amount that is
less than the Redemption Amount. You should consult your own adviser as to the potential for such withholding and the potential for
reduction or refund of part or all of such withholding, including under any bilateral Canadian tax treaty the benefits of which you may be
entitled. For a discussion of the Canadian federal income tax consequences of investing in the notes, see "Summary of Canadian
Federal Income Tax Consequences" below, "Canadian Taxation--Debt Securities" on page 38 of the prospectus dated December 1,
https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/9631/000110465917004972/a17-3403_4424b2.htm[1/31/2017 12:15:19 PM]

The Index

All disclosures contained in this term sheet regarding the Index, including, without limitation, its make-up, method of calculation, and changes in
its components, have been derived from publicly available sources. The information reflects the policies of, and is subject to change by, STOXX
Limited ("STOXX" or the "Index sponsor"). The Index sponsor, which owns the copyright and all other rights to the Index, has no obligation to
continue to publish, and may discontinue publication of, the Index. The consequences of the Index sponsor discontinuing publication of the Index
are discussed in the section entitled "Description of the Notes- Discontinuance of an Index" beginning on page PS-22 of product prospectus

or publication of the Index or any successor index.

February 26, 1998, based on an initial Index value of 1,000 at December 31, 1991. The level of the Index is disseminated on, and additional
information about the Index is published on, the STOXX website. Information contained in the STOXX website is not incorporated by reference
in, and should not be considered a part of, this term sheet.

As of December 30, 2016, the top ten industry sectors which comprise the Index represent the following weights in the Index: Banks
(14.9%), Industrial Goods & Services (11.5%), Chemicals (9.2%), Personal & Household Goods (8.2%), Oil & Gas (7.3%), Insurance (6.8%),
Technology (6.7%), Health Care (6.5%), Automobiles & Parts (5.6%) and Telecommunications (5.4%). As of December 30, 2016, the eight

For each of the 19 EURO STOXX regional supersector indices, the stocks are ranked in terms of free-float market capitalization. The largest
stocks are added to the selection list until the coverage is close to, but still less than, 60% of the free-float market capitalization of the
corresponding supersector index. If the next highest-ranked stock brings the coverage closer to 60% in absolute terms, then it is also added to
the selection list. All current stocks in the Index are then added to the selection list. All of the stocks on the selection list are then ranked in terms
of free-float market capitalization to produce the final index selection list. The largest 40 stocks on the selection list are selected; the remaining
10 stocks are selected from the largest remaining current stocks ranked between 41 and 60; if the number of stocks selected is still below 50,
then the largest remaining stocks are selected until there are 50 stocks. In exceptional cases, STOXX's management board can add stocks to
and remove them from the selection list.

The Index components are subject to a capped maximum index weight of 10%, which is applied on a quarterly basis.

The composition of the Index is reviewed annually, based on the closing stock data on the last trading day in August. Changes in the
composition of the Index are made to ensure that the Index includes the 50 market sector leaders from within the Index.

The Index is subject to a "fast exit rule." The Index components are monitored for any changes based on the monthly selection list ranking. A

stock is deleted from the Index if: (a) it ranks 75 or below on the monthly selection list and (b) it ranked 75 or below on the selection list of the
previous month. The highest-ranked stock that is not an Index component will replace it. Changes will be implemented on the close of the fifth
trading day of the month, and are effective the next trading day.

The Index is also subject to a "fast entry rule." All stocks on the latest selection lists and initial public offering (IPO) stocks are reviewed for a
fast-track addition on a quarterly basis. A stock is added, if (a) it qualifies for the latest STOXX blue-chip selection list generated at the end of
February, May, August or November and (b) it ranks within the "lower buffer" (ranks 1-25) on this selection list.

The Index is also reviewed on an ongoing basis. Corporate actions (including initial public offerings, mergers and takeovers, spin-offs, delistings,
and bankruptcy) that affect the Index composition are immediately reviewed. Any changes are announced, implemented, and effective in line
with the type of corporate action and the magnitude of the effect.

Index Calculation

The Index is calculated with the "Laspeyres formula," which measures the aggregate price changes in the component stocks against a fixed
base quantity weight. The formula for calculating the Index value can be expressed as follows:

Index = free float market capitalization of the Index at the time
divisor of the Index at the time


The "free float market capitalization of the Index" is equal to the sum of the products of the closing price, number of shares, free float factor, and
weighting cap factor for the component company as of the time that the Index is being calculated.

The Index is calculated using a divisor that helps to maintain the continuity of the Index's value so that corporate actions do not artificially
increase or decrease the level of the Index. The divisor of the Index is adjusted to maintain the continuity of the Index's values across changes
due to corporate actions, such as cash dividends, rights offerings, stock dividends from treasury shares, repurchases of shares and self-tender,
and spin-offs.
