C.2 | Currency of the securities issue | The Securities are issued in Euro ("EUR") (the "Specified Currency"). |
C.5 | Restrictions of any free transferability of the securities | Not applicable. The Securities are freely transferable. |
C.8 | Rights attached to the securities, including ranking and limitations to those rights | Governing law of the Securities The Securities, as to form and content, and all rights and obligations of the Issuer and the Security Holder shall be governed by the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany. Rights attached to the Securities The Securities do not have a fixed term. Instead they run for an indefinite time unless a Knock-out Event (as defined in C.15) has occurred, the Security Holders exercise their Exercise Right or the Issuer exercises its Regular Call Right. Subject to the occurrence of a Knock-out Event, the Security Holders shall be entitled to demand the payment of the Differential Amount (as defined in C.15) per Security from the Issuer (the "Exercise Right"). The Exercise Right may be exercised by the Security Holder on each Exercise Date (as defined in C.16) prior to 10:00 a.m. (Munich local time). If a Knock-out Event has occurred, the Security Holders shall be entitled to demand the payment of the Knock-out Amount (as defined in C.15). The Issuer may call the Securities on any Exercise Date in whole but not in part and pay the Differential Amount (the "Regular Call Right"). The Issuer will |
notify such a call at least one month prior to the call. The Securities do not bear interest. Limitation of the rights Upon the occurrence of one or more Adjustment Events (as specified in the Final Terms) the Calculation Agent will in its reasonable discretion (§ 315 BGB) adjust the Terms and Conditions of these Securities and/or all prices of the Underlying determined by the Calculation Agent on the basis of the Terms and Conditions of the Securities, pursuant to the Final Terms, in such a way that the economic position of the Security Holders remains unchanged to the greatest extent possible. Upon the occurrence of one or more Call Events (the "Call Events") (as specified in the Final Terms) the Issuer may call the Securities extraordinarily pursuant to the Final Terms and redeem the Securities at their Cancellation Amount. The "Cancellation Amount" is the reasonable market value of the Securities determined by the Calculation Agent in its reasonable discretion (§ 315 BGB) within ten Banking Days before the extraordinary call becomes effective. Status of the Securities The obligations under the Securities constitute direct, unconditional and unsecured obligations of the Issuer and rank, unless provided otherwise by law, pari passu with all other unsecured unsubordinated present and future obligations of the Issuer. | ||
C.11 | Admission to trading | Application will be made for the Securities to be admitted to trading with effect from 03/02/2016 on the following regulated or unregulated markets: Borsa Italiana S.p.A. – SeDeX market The UniCredit Bank AG (also the "Market Maker") undertakes to provide liquidity through bid and offer quotes in accordance with the market making rules of Borsa Italiana S.p.A., where the Securities are expected to be listed. The obligations of the Market Maker are regulated by the rules of the markets organized and managed by Borsa Italiana S.p.A,. and the relevant instructions to such rules. |
C.15 | Effect of the underlying on the value of the securities | The Securities reflect the performance of the Underlying (as defined in C.20) and allow the Security Holder to participate in both the positive and negative performance of the Underlying during the term of the Securities. Call Mini Future Securities are Securities where Security Holders participate disproportionately (leveraged) in the price development of the Underlying. If the price of the Underlying rises, the price of the Security regularly rises disproportionately. If the price of the Underlying falls, the price of the Securities regularly falls disproportionately. Put Mini Future Securities are Securities where Security Holders participate disproportionately (leveraged) in the reverse price development of the Underlying. If the price of the Underlying falls, the price of the Security regularly rises disproportionately. If the price of the Underlying rises, the price of the Securities regularly falls disproportionately. If no Knock-out Event has occurred, the payment of the Differential Amount will only be made, if the Security Holder exercises its Exercise Right or the Issuer exercises its Regular Call Right. If a Knock-out Event has occurred, the payment shall occur prematurely and |
shall consist of the Knock-out Amount. Upon issuance of the Securities the "Strike" corresponds to the Initial Strike (as specified in the Final Terms). In the case of Call Mini Future Securities the Strike generally rises on a daily basis in a certain amount. In the case of Put Mini Future Securities the Strike generally falls on a daily basis in a certain amount. The "Differential Amount" equals: - in the case of Call Mini Future Securities an amount by which the Relevant Reference Price (as defined in C.19) exceeds the Strike, multiplied by the Ratio (as specified in the Final Terms). - in the case of Put Mini Future Securities an amount by which the Relevant Reference Price (as defined in C.19) belows the Strike, multiplied by the Ratio. However, the Differential Amount is not lower than the Minimum Amount (as specified in the Final Terms). Upon issuance of the Securities the "Knock-out Barrier" corresponds to the initial Knock-out Barrier (as specified in the Final Terms). In the case of Call Mini Future Securities the Knock-out Barrier generally rises on a monthly basis in a certain amount. In the case of Put Mini Future Securities the Knock-out Barrier generally falls on a monthly basis in a certain amount. The "Knock-out Amount" equals - in the case of Call Mini Future Securities an amount by which the Exercise Price (as defined in C.19) exceeds the Strike, multiplied by the Ratio (as specified in the Final Terms). - in the case of Put Mini Future Securities an amount by which the Exercise Price (as defined in C.19) belows the Strike, multiplied by the Ratio. However, the Knock-out Amount is not lower than the Minimum Amount. A "Knock-out Event" has occurred, if - in the case of Call Mini Future Securities the price of the Underlying with continuous observation starting at the First Trade Date (as specified in the Final Terms) (including), is at any time on or below the Knock-out Barrier; - in the case of Put Mini Future Securities the price of the Underlying with continuous observation starting at the First Trade Date (including), is at any time on or above the Knock-out Barrier. | ||
C.16 | The expiration or maturity date of the derivative securities – the exercise date or final reference date | "Exercise Date" is the last Trade Date in the month of January of each year. "Valuation Date" is the Exercise Date, on which the Exercise Right is effectively exercised, or respectively the Call Date on which the Issuer exercises its Regular Call Right. |

C.19 | Exercise price or final reference price of the underlying | "Exercise Price" is that amount in the Underlying Currency (as specified in the Final Terms) which the Issuer would obtain for an Underlying due to the liquidation of hedging transactions. "Relevant Reference Price" means the Reference Price on the respective Valuation Date. |
The Reference Price is specified in the table in the Annex to this summary. | ||

HVB Group could incur greater losses than those calculated with the current risk management methods or losses previously left out of its calculations entirely. | ||
D.6 | Key information on the key risks that are specific to the securities | In the opinion of the Issuer, the key risks described below may, with regard to the Security Holder, adversely affect the value of the Securities and/or the amounts to be distributed (including the delivery of any quantity of Underlyings or its components to be delivered) under the Securities and/or the ability of Security Holders to sell the Securities at a reasonable price prior to the maturity date of the Securities. |
• Potential conflicts of interest | ||
The risk of conflicts of interest (as described in E.4) is related to the possibility that the Issuer, distributors or any of their affiliates, in relation to certain functions or transactions, may pursue interests which may be adverse to or do not regard the interests of the Security Holders. | ||
• Key risks related to the Securities | ||
Key risks related to the market | ||
Under certain circumstances a Security Holder may not be able to sell his Securities at all or at an adequate price prior to their redemption. | ||
The market value of the Securities will be affected by the creditworthiness of the Issuer and a number of other factors (e.g., exchange rates, prevailing interest and yield rates, the market for similar securities, the general econonmic, political and cyclical conditions, the tradeability of the Securities and Underlying-related factors) and may be substantially lower than the Purchase Price. | ||
Security Holders may not rely on being able to sufficiently hedge against price risks arising from the Securities at any time. | ||
Key risks related to the Securities in general | ||
The Issuer may possibly fail to perform its obligations under the Securities in whole or in part, e.g., in case of an insolvency of the Issuer or due to governmental or regulatory interventions. Such risk is not protected by a deposit protection scheme or any similar compensation scheme. | ||
An investment into the Securities may be illegal or unfavourable for a potential investor or not suitable, with regard to his knowledge or experience and his financial needs. The real rate of return of an investment into the Securities may be reduced or may be zero or even negative (e.g., due to incidental costs in connection with the purchase, holding and disposal of the Securities, future money depreciation (inflation) or tax effects). The redemption amount may be less than the Issue Price or the respective purchase price and, under certain circumstances, no interest or ongoing payments will be made. | ||
The proceeds from the Securities may possibly not be sufficient to make interest or principal payments arising from a financing purchase of the Securities and require additional capital. | ||
Risks related to Underlying-linked Securities | ||
Risks arising from the influence of the Underlying or its components on the market value of the Securities | ||
The market value of the Securities and the amounts payable under the Securities significantly depend on the price of the Underlying. It is not possible to predict the price development of the Underlying or its components in the future. Additionally, the market value of the Securities will be affected by a |
number of Underlying-related factors. Risks arising from the fact that the observation of the Underlying or its components occurs only at specified dates or times or periods Due to the fact that the observation of the Underlying or its components may occur only at specified dates, times or periods, amounts payable under the Securities may be considerably lower than the price of the Underlying or its components may have suggested. Risks due to open-end structure Securities may be issued without a fixed term. Security Holders have no claim for repayment until a call right of the Issuer or a Exercise Right of the Security Holder has been exercised. Risks related to a Ratio A ratio may result in the Security being in economic terms similar to a direct investment in the relevant Underlying or its components, but being nonetheless not fully comparable with such a direct investment Risks related to a Maximum Amount The potential return from the Securities may be limited. Currency and Currency Exchange Rate risk with respect to the Underlying or its components If the Underlying or its components are denominated in a currency other than the Specified Currency, there is a Currency Exchange Rate risk, as long as it is not excluded in the relevant Final Terms. Risks related to Adjustment Events Adjustments may have a substantial negative impact on the value and the future performance of the Securities as well as on the amounts to be distributed under the Securities. Adjustment events may also lead to a extraordinary early termination of the Securities. Risks releated to structure specifics Because of the leverage typical of the Securities, the performance of the Underlying may have a disproportionately strong adverse effect on the value of the Securities. If the relevant reference price of the Underlying is identical or below (in case of a Call Security) or identical or above (in case of a Put Security) the strike indicated in the Final Terms, the market value of the Securities may fall to zero. Risks related to Call and Put Securities If in case of a Call Security the price of the Underlying falls or, in case of a Put Security the price of the Underlying rises, the Security Holders may suffer a total loss of their invested capital. Risks related to the Knock-out Barrier If a Knock-out Event occurs, early redemption occurs at the predefined Knock- out Amount which may be significantly lower than the Differential Amount. Investors may suffer a total loss of their investment. Risks related to the Minimum Exercise Amount If the Final Terms provide that a certain number of Securities is requried in order exercise the Securities, a Security Holder may be unable to exercise some of his Securities. Risks related to Securities which provide for a constant adjustment of certain |
variables If the Final Terms provide that the Strike and/or Knock-out Barrier are subject to a constant adjustment, the risk of the occurence of a Knock-out Event may increase and the amounts payable under Securites as well as the value of the Securities may significantly reduce. Additional risks related to Call and Put X-Turbo Securities and Call and Put X- Turbo Open End Securities Securities that are linked to an additional index bear a higher risk of the occurrence of a Knock-out Event. With respect to the determination of the Differential Amount the additional index will not be taken into account. Risks arising from an Issuer’s Regular Call Right In case of Securities with an Issuer’s Call Right, Securities may be called within the Issuer's sole discretion at certain dates. If the price of the Underlying is low at the time of the Issuer’s regular call, the Security Holder may suffer a partial or total loss of its invested capital. Risks arising from the Exercise Right of Security Holders In case of Securities with an Exercise Right of the Security Holders, Securities may be called at certain dates. If the price of the Underlying is low at the time of the exercise, the Security Holder may suffer a partial or total loss of its invested capital. Risks related to Call Events Upon the occurrence of a Call Event the Issuer has the right to extraordinarily call the Securities at their market value. If the market value of the Securities at the time of the extraordinary call is lower than the Issue Price or the Purchase Price, the respective Security Holder will suffer a partial or total loss of its invested capital even if the Securities provide for a conditional minimum payment. Risks related to Market Disruption Events The Calculation Agent may defer valuations and payments and make determination in its reasonable discretion. Security Holders are not entitled to demand interest due to such delayed payment. • Key risks related to the Underlying or its components General risks No rights of ownership of the Underlying or its Components The Underlying or its components will not be held by the Issuer for the benefit of the Security Holders, and as such, Security Holders will not obtain any rights of ownership (e.g., voting rights, rights to receive dividends or other distributions or other rights) with respect to the Underlying or its components. Key risks related to shares The performance of Share-linked Securities depends on the performance of the respective shares, which may be subject to certain factors. Dividend payments may have an adverse effect on the Security Holder. The holder of the depository receipts may lose the rights to the underlying shares certified by the participation certificate. The Securities are not capital protected. Investors may lose the value of their entire investment or part of it. |

Diritti collegati agli Strumenti Finanziari Gli Strumenti Finanziari non hanno una durata fissa. Al contrario, la durata è illimitata e fino al verificarsi di un Evento di Knock-out (come definito sub C. 15), i Titolari fanno valere il proprio Diritto di Esercizio ovvero l’Emittente esercita il proprio Diritto di Riscatto Regolare. Salvo il verificarsi di un Evento di Knock-out, i Titolari hanno il diritto a chiedere il pagamento dell’Importo Differenziale (come definito sub C. 15) per Strumento Finanziario da parte dell’Emittente (il "Diritto di Esercizio"). Il Diritto di Esercizio può essere fatto valere dal Titolare ad ogni Data di Esercizio (come |
definita sub C. 16) prima delle ore 10:00 (ora locale di Monaco). Qualora si sia verificato un Evento di Knock-out, i Titolari hanno diritto a chiedere il pagamento dell’Importo Knock-out (come definito nelle Condizioni Definitive sub C.15). L’Emittente può riscattare gli Strumenti Finanziari ad ogni Data di Esercizio per l’intero e non in parte e pagare l’Importo Differenziale (il "Diritto di Riscatto Regolare"). L’Emittente dovrà comunicare l’esercizio del riscatto almeno un mese prima del riscatto. Gli Strumenti Finanziari non pagano interessi. Limitazione dei diritti Al ricorrere di uno o più Eventi di Rettifica (come definiti nelle Condizioni Definitive) l’Agente per il Calcolo modificherà a propria ragionevole discrezione (§ 315 BGB) i Termini e le Condizioni di questi Strumenti Finanziari e/o tutti i prezzi dei Sottostanti determinati dall’Agente per il Calcolo sulla base dei Termini e le Condizioni degli Strumenti Finanziari, conformemente alle Condizioni Definitive, in modo tale che la posizione economica dei Titolari resti immodificata nella maggior misura possibile. Al ricorrere di uno o più Eventi di Riscatto (gli “Eventi di Riscatto”) (come specificati nelle Condizioni Definitive) l'Emittente può riscattare in via straordinaria gli Strumenti Finanziari conformemente alle Condizioni Definitive e rimborsare gli Strumenti Finanziari al loro Importo di Riscatto. L’”Importo di Riscatto” è il ragionevole valore di mercato degli Strumenti Finanziari determinato dall’agente per il Calcolo a propria ragionevole discrezione (§ 315 BGB) entro dieci Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxxxx prima che il riscatto straordinario divenga effettivo. Status degli Strumenti Finanziari Gli obblighi derivanti dagli Strumenti Finanziari costituiscono obbligazioni dirette, incondizionate e non subordinate dell'Emittente e, salvo quanto diversamente previsto dalla legge, sono parimenti ordinate con le altre obbligazioni incondizionate e non subordinate presenti e future dell’Emittente. | ||
C.11 | Ammissione alla negoziazione | Sarà presentata istanza per l'ammissione a quotazione degli Strumenti Finanziari con efficacia dal 03/02/2016 presso i seguenti mercati regolamentati o altri mercati equivalenti: Borsa Italiana S.p.A. – SeDeX market UniCredit Bank AG (ovvero il “Market Maker”) si impegna a fornire la liquidità mediante proposte di acquisto e vendita conformemente ai regolamenti di Borsa Italiana, dove è prevista la quotazione degli Strumenti Finanziari. Gli obblighi del Maket Maker sono stabiliti dai regolamenti dei mercati organizzati e gestiti da Borsa Italiana, e dalle istruzioni ad essi relative. |
C.15 | Effetto del sottostante sul valore degli strumenti finanziari | Gli Strumenti Finanziari riflettono la performance del Sottostante (come definito sub C. 20) e consentono al Titolare di partecipare alla performance sia positiva sia negativa del Sottostante nel corso della durata degli Strumenti Finanziari. Gli Strumenti Finanziari di tipo Call Mini Future sono Strumenti Finanziari in cui il Titolare partecipa in modo più che proporzionale (con leva finanziaria) all’andamento del prezzo del Sottostante. Se il prezzo del Sottostante aumenta, di regola il prezzo dello Strumento Finanziario aumenta in modo più che proporzionale. Se il prezzo del Sottostante decresce, di regola il prezzo dello Strumento Finanziario decresce in modo più che proporzionale. Gli Strumenti Finanziari di tipo Put Mini Future sono Strumenti Finanziari in cui il Titolare partecipa in modo più che proporzionale (con leva finanziaria) all’andamento negativo del prezzo del Sottostante. Se il prezzo del Sottostante |
decresce, di regola il prezzo dello Strumento Finanziario aumenta in modo più che proporzionale. Se il prezzo del Sottostante aumenta, di regola il prezzo dello Strumento Finanziario decresce in modo più che proporzionale. Qualora non si sia verificato alcun Evento di Knock-out, il pagamento dell’Importo Differenziale verrà eseguito a condizione che il Titolare faccia valere il proprio Diritto di Esercizio o l’Emittente eserciti il proprio Diritto di Riscatto Regolare. Qualora si sia verificato un Evento di Knock-out, il pagamento dell’Importo Knock-out verrà eseguito in anticipo. Alla data di emissione degli Strumenti Finanziari lo "Strike" corrisponde allo Strike Iniziale (come indicato nelle Condizioni Definitive). Nel caso di Strumenti Finanziari di tipo Call Mini Future lo Strike generalmente aumenta su base giornaliera di un certo importo. Nel caso di Strumenti Finanziari di tipo Put Mini Future lo Strike generalmente decresce su base giornaliera di un certo importo. L’"Importo Differenziale" equivale: - nel caso di Strumenti Finanziari di tipo Call Mini Future all’importo di cui il Prezzo di Riferimento Rilevante (come definito sub C. 19) supera lo Strike, moltiplicato per il Multiplo (come indicato nelle Condizioni Definitive); - nel caso di Strumenti Finanziari di tipo Put Mini Future all’importo di cui il Prezzo di Riferimento Rilevante (come definito sub C. 19) è inferiore allo Strike, moltiplicato per il Multiplo. Peraltro, l’Importo Differenziale non può essere inferiore all’Importo Minimo (come specificato nelle Condizioni Definitive). Alla data di emissione degli Strumenti Finanziari la "Barriera di Knock-out" corrisponde alla Barriera di Knock-out Iniziale (come indicata nelle Condizioni Definitive). Nel caso di Strumenti Finanziari di tipo Call Mini Future la Barriera di Knock-out generalmente aumenta su base mensile di un certo ammontare. Nel caso di Strumenti Finanziari di tipo Put Mini Future la Barriera di Knock-out generalmente diminuisce su base mensile di un certo ammontare. L’"Importo di Knock-out" equivale: - nel caso di Strumenti Finanziari di tipo Call Mini Future all’importo di cui il Prezzo di Esercizio (come definito sub C. 19) supera lo Strike moltiplicato per il Multiplo (come indicato nelle Condizioni Definitive); - nel caso di Strumenti Finanziari di tipo Put Mini Future all’importo di cui il Prezzo di Esercizio (come definito sub C. 19) è inferiore allo Strike moltiplicato per il Multiplo. Peraltro, l’Importo di Knock-out non può essere inferiore all’Importo Minimo. Un "Evento di Knock-out" si verifica qualora: - nel caso di Strumenti Finanziari di tipo Call Mini Future il prezzo del Sottostante con osservazione continua a partire dal Primo Giorno di Negoziazione (come indicata nelle Condizioni Definitive) (incluso) in qualsiasi momento tocchi o scenda al di sotto della Barriera di Knock-Out; - nel caso di Strumenti Finanziari di tipo Put Mini Future il prezzo del Sottostante con osservazione continua a partire dal Primo Giorno di Negoziazione (incluso) in qualsiasi momento tocchi o superi la Barriera di Knock-Out. | ||
C.16 | La data di scadenza degli strumenti derivati – la data di esercizio o la data di riferimento | La "Data di Esercizio" è l’ultimo Giorno di Negoziazione nel mese di gennaio di ogni anno. La "Data di Valutazione" è la Data di Esercizio nella quale il Diritto di Esercizio è effettivamente fatto valere, o rispettivamente la Data di Riscatto nella quale l’Emittente esercita il proprio Diritto di Riscatto Regolare. |
finale | ||
C.17 | Modalità di regolamento degli strumenti derivati | Ogni pagamento dovrà essere eseguito a UniCredit Bank AG (l'"Agente Principale di Pagamento"). L'Agente Principale di Pagamento dovrà corrispondere gli importi maturati presso il Sistema di Compensazione da accreditarsi sui rispettivi conti delle banche depositarie per il trasferimento sui conti dei Titolari. Il pagamento al Sistema di Compensazione manleva l'Emittente dai propri obblighi derivanti dagli Strumenti Finanziari in relazione all'importo di tale pagamento. "Sistema di Compensazione" significa Monte Titoli S.p.A. |
C.18 | Descrizione delle modalità secondo le quali si generano i proventi degli strumenti derivati | Pagamento dell’Importo Differenziale cinque Giorni Lavorativi dopo la relativa Data di Valutazione o pagamento dell’Importo di Knock-out cinque Giorni Lavorativi dopo il giorno in cui l’Evento di Knock-out si è verificato. |
C.19 | Prezzo di esercizio o prezzo di riferi- mento definitivo del sottostante | "Prezzo di Esercizio" è l’importo nella Valuta di Emissione (come indicata nelle Condizioni Definitive) che l’Emittente potrebbe conseguire per un Sottostante a seguito di liquidazione delle transazioni a fini di hedging. "Prezzo di Riferimento Rilevante" significa il Prezzo di Riferimento alla rispettiva Data di Valutazione. Il Prezzo di Riferimento è specificato nella tabella contenuta nell’Allegato alla presente nota di sintesi. |
C.20 | Descrizione del tipo di sottostante e di dove siano re- peribili le infor- mazioni rela- tive al sotto- stante | Il Sottostante è un’ Azione specificata nella tabella contenuta nell’Allegato alla presente nota di sintesi. Per ulteriori informazioni circa la performance passata e futura del Sottostante e la relativa volatilità, si faccia riferimento al Sito Web, come specificato nella tabella sotto riportata (o Siti Web successivi). |
D. RISCHI
D.2 | Informazioni fondamentali sui principali rischi che sono specifici e in- dividuali per l'Emittente | I potenziali investitori devono essere consapevoli che, qualora si verifichi uno dei seguenti fattori di rischio, il valore degli strumenti finanziari potrebbe ridursi con la conseguente perdita totale del capitale investito. • Rischio Macroeconomico Rischi per effetto di un deterioramento nel quadro di sviluppo macroeconomico e/o nei mercati finanziari e per effetto di incertezze geopolitiche. • Rischio Sistemico |

D.6 | Informazioni fondamentali sui principali rischi che sono specifici per gli strumenti finanziari | L’Emittente ritiene che i principali rischi descritti di seguito possono, con riferimento ai Titolari, influenzare negativamente il valore degli Strumenti Finanziari e/o gli importi da distribuire (inclusa la consegna di una quantità di Sottostanti o di componenti degli stessi) derivanti dagli Strumenti Finanziari e/o la capacità dei Titolari di cedere gli Strumenti Finanziari ad un prezzo ragionevole prima della relativa data di liquidazione. • Potenziali conflitti di interesse Il rischio di conflitti di interessi (come descritto sub E.4) è correlato alla possibilità che l’Emittente, collocatori o rispettivi affiliati perseguano, in relazione a talune funzioni o operazioni, interessi che possono o meno essere contrari agli interessi dei Titolari. • Principali rischi correlati agli Strumenti Finanziari Principali rischi correlati al mercato In alcune circostanze un Titolare può non essere in grado di rivendere i propri Strumenti Finanziari ovvero di cederli ad un prezzo adeguato prima del rimborso. Il valore di mercato degli Strumenti Finanziari sarà influenzato dalla solvibilità dell’Emittente e da ulteriori fattori (e.g., tassi di cambio, interesse attuale e tassi di rendimento, il mercato per strumenti finanziari similari, le generali condizioni economiche, politiche e cicliche, la negoziabilità degli Strumenti Finanziari e dei fattori correlati al Sottostante) e può essere sostanzialmente inferiore al prezzo di Acquisto. I Titolari non possono fare affidamento sulla possibilità di tutelarsi in qualsiasi momento dai rischi di prezzo derivanti dagli Strumenti Finanziari. Principali rischi correlati agli Strumenti Finanziari in generale L’Emittente potrebbe non essere in grado di adempiere, in tutto o in parte, ai propri obblighi derivanti dagli Strumenti Finanziari, e.g. in caso di insolvenza dell’Emittente o per effetto di interventi governativi o regolamentari. A fronte di tale rischio non è previsto alcun sistema di garanzia dei depositi né alcun sistema di indennizzo analogo. Un investimento negli Strumenti Finanziari potrebbe essere contrario alla legge o non favorevole per un potenziale investitore ovvero inadatto in considerazione della propria conoscenza o esperienza e dei propri bisogni finanziari. Il tasso di rendimento reale di un investimento negli Strumenti Finanziari può ridursi a zero ovvero assumere valori negativi (e.g., a causa di costi accessori connessi all’acquisto, alla detenzione e alla dismissione degli Strumenti Finanziari, a future svalutazioni monetarie (inflazione) o ad effetti fiscali). L’importo di rimborso può essere inferiore al Prezzo di Emissione o al |
rispettivo prezzo di acquisto e, in alcune circostanze, non verrà corrisposto alcun interesse né verranno eseguiti pagamenti nel corso del periodo di detenzione degli Strumenti Finanziari. I proventi degli Strumenti Finanziari potrebbero non essere sufficienti a generare interessi o a permettere di eseguire i pagamenti dovuti per effetto dell’acquisto degli Strumenti Finanziari mediante finanziamento richiedendo capitale aggiuntivo. Rischi correlati a Strumenti Finanziari collegati a Sottostanti Rischi dovuti all'influenza del Sottostante o di componenti dello stesso sul valore di mercato degli Strumenti Finanziari Il valore di mercato degli Strumenti Finanziari e gli importi erogabili derivanti dagli Strumenti Finanziari dipendono significativamente dal prezzo del Sottostante. L’evoluzione futura del prezzo del Sottostante o di componenti dello stesso non è prevedibile. Inoltre, il valore di mercato degli Strumenti Finanziari sarà influenzato da diversi fattori correlati al Sottostante. Rischi dovuti al fatto che la valutazione del Sottostante o delle componenti dello stesso avviene solo in date, momenti o periodi specificati A causa del fatto che la valutazione del Sottostante o di componenti dello stesso può avvenire solo in date, momenti o periodi specificati, i proventi erogabili derivanti dagli Strumenti Finanziari possono essere considerevolmente più bassi rispetto al prezzo che il Sottostante o componenti dello stesso potrebbero aver suggerito. Rischi dovuti alla struttura open-end Gli Strumenti Finanziari possono essere emessi senza una scadenza fissa. I Titolari non hanno diritto al rimborso fino a quando non venga esercitato un diritto di riscatto da parte dell’Emittente o venga fatto valere il Diritto di Esercizio da parte del Titolare. Rischi correlati ad un Multiplo Un multiplo può fare sì che lo Strumento Finanziario sia analogo, sebbene non del tutto assimilabile, in termini economici ad un investimento diretto nel relativo Sottostante o nelle componenti dello stesso. Xxxxxx correlati ad un Importo Massimo Il rendimento potenziale degli Strumenti Finanziari può essere limitato. Rischio Valuta e rischio del Tasso di Cambio con riferimento al Sottostante o a componenti dello stesso Se il Sottostante o le componenti dello stesso sono espresse in una valuta diversa dalla Valuta di Emissione, esiste un rischio connesso al Tasso di Cambio a meno che tale rischio non venga escluso nelle relative Condizioni Definitive. Rischi correlati ad Eventi di Rettifica Rettifiche potrebbero avere un impatto negativo sostanziale sul valore e la futura performance degli Strumenti Finanziari così come sugli importi da distribuire derivanti dagli Strumenti Finanziari. Eventi di rettifica possono inoltre determinare il riscatto straordinario anticipato degli Strumenti Finanziari. Rischi correlati a specificità della struttura A motivo della leva finanziaria tipica degli Strumenti Finanziari, la performance del Sottostante può avere un impatto negativo più che proporzionale sul valore degli Strumenti Finanziari. Se il prezzo di riferimento rilevante del Sottostante è uguale o inferiore (in ipotesi di Strumento Finanziario di tipo Call) o uguale o superiore (in ipotesi di Strumento Finanziario di tipo Put) allo strike indicato nelle Condizioni Definitive, il valore di mercato degli Strumenti Finanziari può scendere a zero. |
Xxxxxx correlati a Strumenti Finanziari di tipo Call e Put Se, in ipotesi di uno Strumento Finanziario di tipo Call, il prezzo del Sottostante scende ovvero, in ipotesi di uno Strumento Finanziario di tipo Put, il prezzo del Sottostante sale, i Titolari possono subire la perdita totale del loro capitale investito Rischi correlati a Barriere di Knock-out Se si verifica un Evento di Knock-out, il rimborso anticipato si realizza al predefinito Importo di Knock-out che può essere significativamente inferiore rispetto all’Importo Differenziale. Gli investitori possono subire la perdita totale del loro investimento. Rischi correlati all’Importo Minimo di Esercizio Se le Condizioni Definitive richiedono un quantitativo minimo di Strumenti Finanziari per l’esercizio degli stessi, un Titolare può non essere in grado di esercitare alcuni dei suoi Strumenti Finanziari. Rischi correlati a Strumenti Finanziari che prevedono un aggiustamento costante di determinate variabili Se le Condizioni Definitive prevedono che lo Strike o la Barriera di Knock-out sono soggetti ad aggiornamento costante, il rischio del verificarsi di un Evento di Knock-out può aumentare e possono ridursi significativamente gli importi esigibili ai sensi degli Strumenti Finanziari così come il valore degli Strumenti Finanziari stessi. Rischi ulteriori correlati agli Strumenti Finanziari del tipo Call e Put X-Turbo e Call e Put X-Turbo Open End Strumenti Finanziari che sono correlati a più di un indice sopportano un rischio più elevato del verificarsi di un Evento di Knock-out. Con riferimento alla determinazione dell’Importo Differenziale, l’indice addizionale non viene preso in considerazione. Rischi derivanti dal Diritto di Riscatto in capo all’Emittente Nell’ipotesi di Strumenti Finanziari che attribuiscono all’Emittente il Diritto di Riscatto, tali Strumenti Finanziari possono essere riscattati, a discrezione dell'Emittente, a date predefinite. Qualora il prezzo del Sottostante sia basso al momento del Riscatto da parte dell’Emittente, il Titolare può subire una perdita parziale o totale del proprio capitale investito. Rischi derivanti dal Diritto di Esercizio in capo ai Titolari Nell’ipotesi di Strumenti Finanziari che attribuiscono un Diritto di Esercizio in capo ai Titolari, gli Strumenti possono essere riscattati a date predefinite. Qualora il prezzo del Sottostante sia basso al momento dell’esercizio, il Titolare può subire una perdita parziale o totale del proprio capitale investito. Rischi correlati a Eventi di Riscatto Al verificarsi di un Evento di Riscatto l’Emittente ha diritto di riscatto straordinario degli Strumenti Finanziari al rispettivo valore di mercato. Se il valore di mercato degli Strumenti Finanziari al momento del riscatto straordinario è inferiore al Prezzo di Emissione o al prezzo di acquisto, il relativo Titolare sarà soggetto ad una parziale o totale perdita del capitale investito nonostante gli Strumenti Finanziari prevedano un pagamento minimo condizionale. Rischi correlati a Turbative di Mercato L’Agente per il Calcolo può rinviare date di valutazione e pagamenti ed effettuare valutazioni a propria ragionevole discrezione. I Titolari non hanno diritto a richiedere interessi per ritardato pagamento. • Principali rischi correlati al Sottostante o a componenti dello stesso Xxxxxx generali Xxxxxx diritto di proprietà sul Sottostante o su componenti dello stesso |
Il Sottostante o le componenti dello stesso non saranno detenute dall’Emittente a beneficio del Titolare, e di conseguenza, i Titolari non avranno alcun diritto di proprietà (e.g. diritti di voto, diritti di ricevere dividendi o altre distribuzioni, nonché altri diritti) in relazione al Sottostante o alle componenti dello stesso. Principali rischi correlati alle azioni La performance degli Strumenti Finanziari correlati ad Azioni dipende dalla performance delle rispettive azioni, che può essere influenzata da diversi fattori. Il pagamento di dividendi può avere un impatto negativo per il Titolare. Il titolare dei certificati rappresentativi di azioni può perdere i diritti sulle azioni sottostanti attestati dal certificato di partecipazione. Gli Strumenti Finanziari non hanno protezione del capitale. Gli investitori possono perdere in toto il proprio investimento o parte di tale investimento. |

Put X-Turbo Securities are Securities where Security Holders participate disproportionately (leveraged) in the reverse price development of the Underlyings. If the price of the Underlyings falls, the price of the Security regularly rises disproportionately.

D.6 | Key information on the key risks that are specific to the securities | In the opinion of the Issuer, the key risks described below may, with regard to the Security Holder, adversely affect the value of the Securities and/or the amounts to be distributed (including the delivery of any quantity of Underlyings or its components to be delivered) under the Securities and/or the ability of Security Holders to sell the Securities at a reasonable price prior to the maturity date of the Securities. |
• Potential conflicts of interest | ||
The risk of conflicts of interest (as described in E.4) is related to the possibility that the Issuer, distributors or any of their affiliates, in relation to certain functions or transactions, may pursue interests which may be adverse to or do not regard the interests of the Security Holders. | ||
• Key risks related to the Securities | ||
Key risks related to the market | ||
Under certain circumstances a Security Holder may not be able to sell his Securities at all or at an adequate price prior to their redemption. | ||
The market value of the Securities will be affected by the creditworthiness of the Issuer and a number of other factors (e.g., exchange rates, prevailing interest and yield rates, the market for similar securities, the general econonmic, political and cyclical conditions, the tradeability of the Securities and Underlying-related factors) and may be |
substantially lower than the Purchase Price. Security Holders may not rely on being able to sufficiently hedge against price risks arising from the Securities at any time. Key risks related to the Securities in general The Issuer may possibly fail to perform its obligations under the Securities in whole or in part, e.g., in case of an insolvency of the Issuer or due to governmental or regulatory interventions. Such risk is not protected by a deposit protection scheme or any similar compensation scheme. An investment into the Securities may be illegal or unfavourable for a potential investor or not suitable, with regard to his knowledge or experience and his financial needs. The real rate of return of an investment into the Securities may be reduced or may be zero or even negative (e.g., due to incidental costs in connection with the purchase, holding and disposal of the Securities, future money depreciation (inflation) or tax effects). The redemption amount may be less than the Issue Price or the respective purchase price and, under certain circumstances, no interest or ongoing payments will be made. The proceeds from the Securities may possibly not be sufficient to make interest or principal payments arising from a financing purchase of the Securities and require additional capital. Risks related to Underlying-linked Securities Risks arising from the influence of the Underlying or its components on the market value of the Securities The market value of the Securities and the amounts payable under the Securities significantly depend on the price of the Underlying. It is not possible to predict the price development of the Underlying or its components in the future. Additionally, the market value of the Securities will be affected by a number of Underlying-related factors. Risks arising from the fact that the observation of the Underlying or its components occurs only at specified dates or times or periods Due to the fact that the observation of the Underlying or its components may occur only at specified dates, times or periods, amounts payable under the Securities may be considerably lower than the price of the Underlying or its components may have suggested. Risks due to open-end structure Securities may be issued without a fixed term. Security Holders have no claim for repayment until a call right of the Issuer or the Exercise Right of the Security Holder has been exercised. Risks related to a Ratio A ratio may result in the Security being in economic terms similar to a direct investment in the relevant Underlying or its components, but being nonetheless not fully comparable with such a direct investment Risks related to a Maximum Amount The potential return from the Securities may be limited. Currency and Currency Exchange Rate risk with respect to the Underlying or its components If the Underlying or its components are denominated in a currency other than the Specified Currency, there is a Currency Exchange Rate risk, as long as it is not excluded in the relevant Final Terms. |
Risks related to Adjustment Events Adjustments may have a substantial negative impact on the value and the future performance of the Securities as well as on the amounts to be distributed under the Securities. Adjustment events may also lead to a extraordinary early termination of the Securities. Risks releated to structure specifics Because of the leverage typical of the Securities, the performance of the Underlying may have a disproportionately strong adverse effect on the value of the Securities. If the relevant reference price of the Underlying is identical or below (in case of a Call Security) or identical or above (in case of a Put Security) the strike indicated in the Final Terms, the market value of the Securities may fall to zero. Risks related to Call and Put Securities If in case of a Call Security the price of the Underlying falls or, in case of a Put Security the price of the Underlying rises, the Security Holders may suffer a total loss of their invested capital. Risks related to the Knock-out Barrier If a Knock-out Event occurs, early redemption occurs at the predefined Knock-out Amount which may be significantly lower than the Differential Amount. Investors may suffer a total loss of their investment. Risks related to the Minimum Exercise Amount If the Final Terms provide that a certain number of Securities is requried in order exercise the Securities, a Security Holder may be unable to exercise some of his Securities. Risks related to Securities which provide for a constant adjustment of certain variables If the Final Terms provide that the Strike and/or Knock-out Barrier are subject to a constant adjustment, the risk of the occurence of a Knock-out Event may increase and the amounts payable under Securites as well as the value of the Securities may significantly reduce. Additional risks related to Call and Put X-Turbo Securities and Call and Put X-Turbo Open End Securities Securities that are linked to an additional index bear a higher risk of the occurrence of a Knock-out Event. With respect to the determination of the Differential Amount the additional index will not be taken into account. Risks arising from an Issuer’s Regular Call Right In case of Securities with an Issuer’s Call Right, Securities may be called within the Issuer's sole discretion at certain dates. If the price of the Underlying is low at the time of the Issuer’s regular call, the Security Holder may suffer a partial or total loss of its invested capital. Risks arising from the Exercise Right of Security Holders In case of Securities with an Exercise Right of the Security Holders, Securities may be called at certain dates. If the price of the Underlying is low at the time of the exercise, the Security Holder may suffer a partial or total loss of its invested capital. Risks related to Call Events Upon the occurrence of a Call Event the Issuer has the right to extraordinarily call the Securities at their market value. If the market value of the Securities at the time of the extraordinary call is lower than the Issue Price or the Purchase Price, the respective Security Holder will |
suffer a partial or total loss of its invested capital even if the Securities provide for a conditional minimum payment. Risks related to Market Disruption Events The Calculation Agent may defer valuations and payments and make determination in its reasonable discretion. Security Holders are not entitled to demand interest due to such delayed payment. • Key risks related to the Underlying or its components General risks No rights of ownership of the Underlying or its Components The Underlying or its components will not be held by the Issuer for the benefit of the Security Holders, and as such, Security Holders will not obtain any rights of ownership (e.g., voting rights, rights to receive dividends or other distributions or other rights) with respect to the Underlying or its components. [Key risks related to shares The performance of Share-linked Securities depends on the performance of the respective shares, which may be subject to certain factors. Dividend payments may have an adverse effect on the Security Holder. [The holder of the depository receipts may lose the rights to the underlying shares certified by the participation certificate.]] [Key risks related to indices The performance of Index-linked Securities depends on the performance of the respective indices, which largely depend on the composition and the performance of their index components. The Issuer may neither have influence on the respective index nor the index concept. If the Issuer also acts as sponsor or calculation agent of the index, this may lead to conflicts of interest. In general, an index sponsor does not assume liability. Generally, an index may at any time be altered, terminated or replaced by any successor index. Security Holders may not or only partly participate in dividends or other distributions in relation to the index components. If the index entails a leverage factor, investors bear an enhanced risk of losses. Indices may be affected disproportionately negative in the case of an unfavourable development in a country or industrial sector. Indices may include fees which negatively affect their performance. [The performance of Index-linked Securities with an index which relates to futures contracts primarily depends on the performance of the respective futures contract which is subject to certain influencing factors. Price differences (e.g., in case of a roll over) with regard to different terms may have a negative effect on the Securities. Furthermore, prices of futures contracts may differ substantially from the spot prices.]] [Key risks related to commodities The performance of Commodity-linked Securities is depending on the performance of the respective commodity, which is subject to certain influencing factors. An investment in commodities is associated with higher risks than investments in other asset classes. The trading on a global basis almost non-stop in various time zones may lead to different prices in different places, which are not all relevant for the calculation of the Securities.] The Securities are not capital protected. Investors may lose the value of their entire investment or part of it. |

RISK FACTORS
The following is a disclosure of Risk Factors that, in the opinion of UniCredit Bank AG as issuer (the "Issuer"), are material with respect to the Issuer and to the securities issued under this base prospectus (the "Base Prospectus") (the "Securities") in order to assess the risk associated with these Securities. Moreover, further risks that are currently unknown or currently believed to be not material may also have a negative impact on the value of the Securities. Potential investors should be aware that the Securities may decline in value and that the sum of amounts distributed under the Securities may be below the value that the respective Security Holder spent for the purchase of the Securities (including any Incidental Expenses) (the "Purchase Price"). As a result, the respective Security Holder may sustain a partial loss (e.g. in the case of an unfavourable performance of the Underlying or its components) or total loss (e.g. in the case of a substantially unfavourable performance of the Underlying or of an insolvency of the Issuer) of his investment.
The Base Prospectus, including these risk factors, and relevant final terms of the Securities (the "Final Terms") do not replace a professional consultation with a potential investor’s house bank or financial adviser. However, potential investors should carefully consider these Risk Factors before making a decision to purchase any Securities in any case.
Potential investors should consider all information provided in (a) this Base Prospectus and in any supplements thereto, (b) the registration document of UniCredit Bank AG dated 24 April 2015 (the "Registration Document"), the information of which is incorporated herein by reference, (c) all documents the information of which is incorporated in the Base Prospectus by reference, and
(d) the relevant Final Terms. An investment in the Securities is only suitable for investors, who understand the nature of such Securities and the extent of the incorporated risk and who have sufficient knowledge, experience and access to professional advisors (including their financial, legal and tax advisors) in order to form their own legal, tax and financial opinion upon the existing risks in relation to the Securities. Furthermore, potential investors should be aware that the risks described below may arise separately or cumulatively in combination with other risks and may possibly have mutually reinforcing effects. The order of the risks described below does not imply any statement about the likelihood of occurrence of each risk or the degree of influence of such risk factor on the value of the Securities.
"Security Holder" means the holder of a Security.
In the opinion of the Issuer, the significant risks described below may adversely affect the value of the Securities and/or the amounts to be distributed (including the delivery any quantity of the Underlying or its components to be delivered) under the Securities and/or the ability of Security Holders to sell the Securities at a reasonable price prior to the maturity date of the Securities:
A. Risks related to the Issuer
The risk factors related to the Issuer included in the Registration Document of UniCredit Bank AG dated 24 April 2015 are hereby incorporated by reference into this Base Prospectus. A list setting out the information incorporated by reference is provided on page 178 et seq.
Potential investors should consider the information within the section entitled "Risk Factors" of the Registration Document. This section contains information on risks which may affect the assets, liabilities and the financial position of the Issuer and its ability to fulfil its obligations arising from the Securities.
B. Risks related to potential conflicts of interest
1. General potential conflicts of interest
The Issuer, a financial institution or a financial intermediary with whom the Issuer has entered into a distribution agreement (the "Distributor") or any of their affiliates may, in connection with the below mentioned functions or transactions, as the case may be, pursue interests, which may be
adverse to the interests of the Security Holders or do not take them into account (the "Conflicts of Interest").
Potential conflicts of interest related to the Issue Price
The Securities will be offered at a price determined by the Issuer (the "Issue Price"). The Issue Price is based on internal pricing models of the Issuer and may be higher than the market value of the Securities. The Issue Price may contain, beside upfront, management or other fees, an additional premium that may not be obvious to the Security Holders. Such an additional premium depends on several factors, particularly on the volume of the Securities of each series as well as current and expected market conditions and market outlooks as of the time of the issuance of the Securities. The premium will be added to the original mathematical value of the Securities and may differ between each issue of the Securities as well as from the premiums charged by other market participants.
Potential conflicts of interest related to market maker activities
The Issuer, any of its affiliates and any other company that the Issuer has appointed as market maker (each a "Market Maker"), may, but is not obliged to, undertake market making activities for the Securities. "Market Making" means that the Market Maker, under normal market conditions, continuously quotes bid and offer prices at which it is willing to trade the Securities in a certain volume. Through Market Making the liquidity and/or the value of the Securities may substantially be influenced. The prices quoted by a Market Maker may, to the detriment of the investor, substantially deviate from the mathematical (intrinsic) value of the Securities and usually do not correspond to the prices which would have been formed without Market Making and in a liquid market.
Potential conflicts of interest related to Distributors and inducements
From the Issuer Distributors may receive certain inducements in form of turnover-dependent placement- and/or management fees. Placement fees are one-off payments which, alternatively, may be granted by the Issuer in the form of an appropriate discount on the Issue Price. On the other hand, payment of management fees is recurring and dependant on the volume of the outstanding Securities at the given point of time placed by the relevant Distributor. The amount of the relevant inducement will be agreed between the Issuer and the relevant Distributor, may be subject to change and may differ with respect to the individual Distributor and Series of Securities.
Potential conflicts of interest related to the the function as calculation agent or paying agent
The Issuer, any Distributor or any of their affiliates may act as a calculation agent or paying agent in relation to the Securities. In this function, the relevant entity may, inter alia, calculate amounts to be distributed under the Securities and make adjustments or other determinations, as described in the Final Terms, by i.e. exercising reasonable discretion (Section 315 German Civil Code, Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch, "BGB"). The aforementioned calculations, adjustments and determinations may adversely influence the value of, and/or the amounts to be distributed under the Securities and may be adverse to the interests of the respective Security Holder.
2. Potential conflicts of interest related to Underlying-linked Securities
The Securities are linked to the performance of an underlying (the "Underlying") or its components, as the case may be. In this context, the following additional conflicts of interest may exist:
Potential conflicts of interest related to additional transactions
The Issuer, any Distributor or any of its affiliates may from time to time, without regard to the interests of the Security Holders, participate in transactions involving shares or other securities, fund shares, future contracts, commodities, indices, currencies or derivatives for their own account or for the account of their customers. Additional transactions may result in further, liquidity constraints of the Underlying or its components, in particular, following hedging transactions in Underlyings with an already restricted liquidity.
Potential conflicts of interest related to the issuance of additional securities linked to the same Underlying or to its components
The Issuer, any Distributor and any of its affiliates may issue securities with respect to the Underlying or its components on which securities already have been issued. This increases the offer and, therefore, may limit the possiblity to trade the Securities in case of limited demand. An issuance of such new competing securities may, therefore, adversely affect the tradability of the Securities.
Potential conflicts of interest related to Underlying-related information
In the course of their business activities or otherwise, the Issuer, any Distributor or any of their affiliates may be in possession of or may acquire important Underlying-related information (also not publicly available) over the term of the Securities. The issuance of Securities does, in particular, not create any obligation to disclose such information (whether or not confidential), which is related to the Underlying or to its components, to the Security Holders, or to consider such information in the course of the issuance of the Securities.
Potential conflicts of interest related to business activities
The Issuer, any Distributor or any of their affiliates may, without regard to the interests of the Security Holders, deal with other issuers, any of their affiliates, competitors or any guarantor and engage in any kind of commercial or investment banking or other business activities. Any such action may, with respect to the Security Holders, adversely affect the price of the Underlying or its components.
Potential conflicts of interest related to other functions of the Issuer
The Issuer, any Distributor and any of their affiliates may, without regard to the interests of the Security Holders, act as a member of a syndicate of banks, as financial advisor or as a bank of another issuer. In the course of the aforementioned functions actions may be taken or recommendations may be made which, with respect to the Security Holders, may adversely affect the Underlying or its components.
C. Risks related to the Securities
1. Risks related to the market
Risk that no active trading market for the Securities exists
There is a risk that the Securities may not be widely distributed and no active trading market (the "Secondary Market") may exist and may develop for the Securities.
The Issuer is not obliged to make applications for the Securities to be admitted to the regulated market of any stock exchange or to be listed on any other exchange, market or trading system within the European Economic Area. Even if the Issuer makes such application, there is no assurance that such applications will be accepted or that an active trading will develop or be maintained. If the Securities are not traded on any stock exchange or any other market or trading system, pricing information for the Securities may in addition be more difficult to obtain.
Neither the Issuer nor any Distributor or any of its affiliates is obliged to undertake any Market Making activities. There is also no obligation to appoint a Market Maker or to continue a Market Making during the whole term of the Securities. If there is no Market Maker, or Market Making is only made to a limited extent, the Secondary Market in the Securities may be very limited.
Neither the Issuer nor any Distributor can therefore assure that a Security Holder will be able to sell his Securities at an adequate price prior to their redemption.
Risk related to a possible repurchase of the Securities
The Issuer may, but is not obliged to, purchase Securities at any time and at any price in the open market, by tender offer or private agreement. Any Securities purchased in this way by the Issuer
may be held, resold or cancelled. A repurchase of Securities by the Issuer may adversely affect the liquidity of the Securities.
Risk related to the offering volume
The issue volume described in the Final Terms does not allow any conclusion on the volume of the Securities actually issued or outstanding at any time and thus on the liquidity of a potential Secondary Market.
Risks related to a sale of the Securities prior to the maturity date
Prior to the redemption of the Securities, the Security Holders may only be able to realise the value, represented by the Securities, through a sale of the Securities in the Secondary Market. The price at which a Security Holder may be able to sell his Securities may be substantially lower than the nominal amount or the Purchase Price. In the case of a sale of the Securities at a certain point of time at which the market value of the Securities is below the Purchase Price paid, the respective Security Holder will be suffering a loss. Costs associated with the sale of the Securities in the Secondary Market (e.g. order fees or trading venue fees) may in addition increase the loss.
Risks related to market value-influencing factors
The market value of the Securities will be affected by a number of factors. These are inter alia the creditworthiness of the Issuer, the relevant prevailing interest and yield rates, the market for similar securities, the general economic, political and cyclical conditions, the tradability and, if applicable, the remaining term of the Securities as well as additional Underlying-related market value-influencing factors (as described in Risks arising from the influence of the Underlying or its components on the market value of the Securities). These factors may be mutually reinforcing.
Risks related to the spread between bid and offer prices
During extraordinary market situations or the occurrence of technical disruptions, the Market Maker for the Securities may temporarily suspend the quotation of bid and offer prices for the Securities or increase the spread between bid and offer prices. Should the Market Maker in special market situations be unable to conclude transactions to hedge against price risks resulting from the Securities, or when such transactions are very difficult to conclude, the spread between the bid and offer prices may be expanded in order to limit its economic risk.
Currency and Currency Exchange Rate risk with respect to the Securities
If the Securities are denominated in a currency (the "Specified Currency") other than the currency of the jurisdiction where a Security Holder is domiciled or where the Security Holder seeks to receive funds, there is a Currency Exchange Rate risk (as described in Currency Exchange Rate risk). Currencies may also be devalued or replaced by a different currency whose development cannot be predicted.
Currency Exchange Rate risk
Exchange rates between currencies (the "Currency Exchange Rates") are determined by factors of supply and demand in the international currency markets and are influenced by macro- economic factors, speculations and interventions by the central banks and governments as well as by political factors (including the imposition of currency controls and restrictions). In addition there are other factors (e.g. psychological factors) which are almost impossible to predict, (e.g. a crisis of confidence in the political regime of a country) and which also may have a material impact on a Currency Exchange Rate. Currencies may be very volatile. There may be an increased risk in connection with currencies of countries whose standard of development is not comparable to the standard of the Federal Republic of Germany or of other industrialized countries (the "Industrialized Countries"). In the case of any irregularities or manipulations in connection with the fixing of Currency Exchange Rates, this may have a material adverse effect on the Securities.
Risks related to hedging transactions with respect to the Securities
Security Holders may not rely on being able to sufficiently hedge against price risks arising from the Securities at any time. Their ability to make transactions to preclude or limit such price risks will depend on, inter alia, the relevant prevailing market conditions. In some cases there may be no suitable transactions available at a certain point of time or Security Holders may conclude transactions only at a market price that is disadvantageous to them.
2. Risks related to the Securities in general
Credit risk of the Issuer
The Securities constitute unsecured obligations of the Issuer vis-a-vis the Security Holders. Any person who purchases the Securities therefore relies on the creditworthiness of the Issuer and has, in relation to his position under the Securities, no rights or claims against any other person. Security Holders are subject to the risk of a partial or total failure of the Issuer to fulfil obligations which the Issuer is liable to perform under the Securities in whole or in part, for example, in the event of the Issuer’s insolvency. The worse the creditworthiness of the Issuer is the higher is the risk of a loss. Such risk is not protected by a statutory deposit protection, the deposit protection scheme of the Association of German Banks (Einlagensicherungsfonds des Bundesverbandes deutscher Banken), the Compensation Fund of German Banks (Entschädigungseinrichtung deutscher Banken GmbH) or any similar compensation scheme. In the case of realization of the credit risk of the Issuer the Security Holder may sustain a total loss of his capital.
Possible limitations of the legality of purchase and lack of suitability of the Securities
There is the risk, that an investment in the Securities is illegal, unfavourable or not suitable for a potential investor.
The purchase, holding and/or disposal of certain Securities may, for certain investors, be prohibited, limited or associated with adverse regulatory or other consequences. It inter alia cannot be ruled out that the specific investor is restricted or not entitled to invest in the Securities due to supervisory regulations or that the investment is attached to special reporting or notification requirements (e.g. with respect to certain funds).
Additionally, the purchase or holding of Securities may be excluded or unsuitable under civil law agreements (i.e. if eligibility as trustee stock (Mündelsicherheit) is required) or may not be fully consistent with all investment policies, guidelines and restrictions applicable to it.
An investment in the Securities requires detailed knowledge of the features of the relevant Security. Thus, potential investors should have experience with investing in structured securities and the risks associated therewith. An investment in the Securities is only suitable for investors who
• have sufficient knowledge and experience in financial and business affairs to evaluate the merits and risks as well as the suitability of an investment in structured securities;
• have the ability to evaluate the merits and risks in the context of their financial situation on the basis of appropriate analytical tools or, in case of lack of knowledge, have the possibility to take respective professional advice;
• are able to bear the economic risk of an investment in structured securities for an indefinite period, and
• are aware that it may, during a substantial period of time or even at all, not be possible to sell the Securities.
Under consideration of the characteristics of the Securities and the substantial risks inherent in purchasing the Securities, the Securities may also not be an economically appropriate investment.
As a result, each potential investor must determine, based on its own independent review and, if applicable, professional advice, if the purchase, holding and disposal of the Securities fully
complies with the investor's legal requirements, knowledge and experience and financial needs, objectives and circumstances (or if the investor is acquiring the Securities in a fiduciary capacity, the trustee).
Risks arising from financial markets turmoil as well as governmental or regulatory interventions
Turmoil in the international financial markets may also in the future adversely affect inflation, interest rates, the Underlying and its components, the amounts to be distributed under the Securities or the value of the Securities and result in extensive governmental and regulatory interventions.
As a reaction to the financial market crisis which begun in 2007, the European and the German legislator enacted or planned several directives, regulations and laws which might affect the Security Holders. In particular, Directive 2014/59/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of 15 May 2014 establishing a framework for the recovery and resolution of credit institutions and investment firms (the "Resolution Directive") contains additional or amended regulatory provisions which may affect the Issuer and the Securities issued. The Resolution Directive’s provisions have already been implemented into German law (BRRD- Umsetzungsgesetz), providing as a key element a national law for the recovery and resolution of institutions and financial groups (German Recovery and Resolution Act, Sanierungs- und Abwicklungsgesetz) which is already in force and which enhances the former provisions contained in the German Banking Act (Kreditwesengesetz, the "KWG"). Besides, the Regulation (EU) No. 806/2014 of the European Parliament and the Council of 15 July 2014 establishing uniform rules and a uniform mechanism for the resolution of credit institutions and certain investment firms in the framework of a Single Resolution Mechanism and a Single Resolution Fund (the "SRM Regulation"), whose provisions will mainly be applicable of 1 January 2016 without further implementation into national law, provides certain resolution tools; these are e.g., a reduction of liabilities or their transformation into equity, a transfer of claims and/or liabilities of the affected institution or even a resolution of the affected institution. These resolution tools may have a substantial effect on the rights of the Security Holders and may have a material adverse effect on the enforcement of the Security Holders’ claims. Instead of the respective national authority (or in case of a cross-border group resolution, the authority responsible for the group resolution), the board established with respect to an uniform resolution pursuant to Art. 42 SRM Regulation will execute tasks and exercise competences stipulated by the SRM Regulation. In particular, the Issuer may be subject to the following measures which might also affect the Security Holders.
The Issuer may be subject to a restructuring or reorganisation procedure pursuant to the German Act on the Reorganisation of Credit Institutions (Kreditinstitute-Reorganisationsgesetz, the "KredReorgG"). While a restructuring procedure generally may not interfere with rights of creditors, the reorganisation plan established under a reorganisation procedure may provide measures that affect the Security Holder’s rights as the credit institution's creditor against its will, including a reduction of existing claims or a suspension of payments. The Security Holders’ rights may be adversely affected by the reorganisation plan which might be adopted irrespective of their particular voting behaviour by a majority vote.
The German Recovery and Resolution Act and the SRM Regulation provide tools which enable the competent supervisory or resolution authorities to restructure or dissolve credit institutions and investment firms if there is a potential default risk regarding the respective credit institution or investment firm and provided that the default risk may not be prevented by other effective means and the application of the tool serves the public interest. These resolution tools, in accordance with the Resolution Directive, include among others a "bail-in" instrument enabling the competent resolution authority to convert relevant capital instruments or certain eligible liabilities into shares or common capital tier 1 capital instruments or to write them down in whole or in part. By suspension, modification and termination (in whole or in part) of the rights under the Securities, the resolution tools may materially affect the rights of the Security Holders. The extent, to which the claims resulting from the Securities forfeit due to the "bail-in" instrument, depends on a number of factors, on which the Issuer potentially has no influence.
If the resolution conditions are met, the competent resolution authority may as an alternative to a resolution issue a transfer order pursuant to which the Issuer would be forced to transfer its shares or assets and liabilities in whole or in part to a so-called bridge bank or an asset management company. In the context of a transfer order, the Issuer as initial debtor of the Securities may be replaced by another debtor (which may have a fundamentally different risk tolerance or creditworthiness than the Issuer). Alternatively, the claims may remain towards the initial debtor, but the situation regarding the debtor's assets, business activity and/or creditworthiness may not be identical to the situation prior to the transfer order.
The German draft law adapting the national banking resolution law to the single resolution mechanism and the European legislation on banking levies (Abwicklungsmechanismusgesetz) provides that claims resulting from certain uncollateralised debt instruments (such as bearer bonds) which are not subject to any other contractual or statutory subordination, in case of insolvency proceedings of the Issuer, may be subordinated to other uncollateralised receivables from the Issuer. Debt instruments with a derivative redemption or interest amount (if payments are not merely related to a fix or floating reference rate) or with a non-cash redemption shall be excluded; the precise scope of the provision has not yet been finaly clarified. As a consequence of such subordination, in case of a resolution scenario, a "bail-in" instrument may be applied to the Securities before its application to any other uncollateralised receivables and Security Holders must expect a material deterioration of their quota relating to the distribution of proceeds in an insolvency proceeding of the Issuer.
The German Act on the Ring-Fencing of Risks and for the Wind-Down of Credit Institutions and Financial Groups (Gesetz zur Abschirmung von Risiken und zur Sanierung und Abwicklung von Kreditinstituten und Finanzgruppen - Trennbankengesetz) incorporates provisions into the KWG providing that, even without the occurrence of a resolution or recovery event, credit institutions may be obliged to transfer positions which are regarded by the legislator as being “risk inherent” to a legally and financially independent financial trading institution if having reached certain thresholds (separation of banking activities). Furthermore, the competent authority may, from 1 July 2016 on, prohibit the Issuer from having further types of activities being carried out by specific institutions in order to avoid risks. The claims of the Security Holders may be negatively affected thereby including, in particular, that the Issuer as initial debtor of the Securities may be replaced by another debtor (who may have a completely different risk tolerance or creditworthiness than the Issuer). Alternatively, the claims may continue to be towards the Issuer, however, the situation with regard to the debtor’s assets, business activity and/or creditworthiness may not necessarily be the same as before the transfer xxxxx.Xx is planned that pursuant to the Regulation of the European Parliament and of the Council on structural measures improving the resilience of EU credit institution, , which are considered to be systemically important, shall be restricted by the competent authorities with regard to their business activities, including a prohibition of proprietary trading and the separation of certain trading activities. The draft of this regulation has been published by the European Commission on 28 January 2014. This could in the future - in comparison to the Trennbankengesetz – have further impairments in relation to the Issuer's ability to meet its obligations under the Securities.
The aforementioned measures may result in a default of all claims under the Securities and thus to a total loss of the investment of the Security Holder. There may be negative effects in the market value of the Securities even before the execution of such rights. In addition, the Issuer's assets may be withdrawn under these measures, which further adversely affects the ability of the Issuer to meet its payment obligations under the Securities.
Further impairments might result from European legislative activities regarding the improvement of resilience of EU credit institutions
It is generally not or only partly possible to predict future market turmoil, regulatory measures and further legislative projects.
