Bank of America plans market-tied step-up notes on Euro Stoxx, MSCI EM

By Susanna Moon

Chicago, Dec. 12 - Bank of America Corp. plans to price market-linked step-up notes due December 2017 tied to a basket of indexes, according to an FWP with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The basket consists of the Euro Stoxx 50 index and the MSCI Emerging Markets index, each with a 50% weight.

If the basket finishes at or above the step-up value - 112% to 118% of the initial level - the payout at maturity will be par plus any index gain.

If the basket finishes below the step-up level but at or above the initial level, the payout will be par plus the step-up return of 12% to 18%.

Investors will receive par if the basket falls by up to 15% and will be fully exposed to any losses if the basket finishes below the 85% trigger level.

BofA Merrill Lynch is the agent.

The notes will price and settle in December.
