Bank of America Corporation Announces Fallback Rate (C O R R A) as Substitute Base Rate for Certain Outstanding Debt Securities Linked to the Canadian Dollar Bankers’ Acceptance Rate (C D O R) After June twenty eighth twenty twenty four
CHARLOTTE, North Carolina – Bank of America Corporation (“B A C”) (N Y S E B A C) has issued and outstanding certain floating or fixed-to-floating rate debt securities, listed in Annexes 1, 2 and 3 to this press release for which the Canadian dollar Bankers’ Acceptance Rate (“C D O R”), which is also known as the Canadian Dollar Offered Rate, for an index maturity of three months (“Three-Month C D O R”) serves as the base rate used or to be used in calculating or determining applicable interest payments (the “C D O R Securities”). On May sixteenth twenty twenty two, Refinitiv Benchmark Services (UK) Limited (“R B S L”), the administrator of C D O R, announced that the calculation and publication of all remaining C D O R tenors, including Three-Month C D O R, will permanently cease immediately following a final publication on Friday, June twenty eighth twenty twenty four.
B A C is announcing that, on the first Toronto banking day after June twenty eighth twenty twenty four (the “C D O R Replacement Date”), Fallback Rate (C O R R A) published for a three-month tenor, as calculated and provided by Bloomberg Index Services Limited (“B I S L”) (or any successor provider thereof) (“Three-Month Fallback Rate (C O R R A)”) will replace Three-Month C D O R as the base rate for calculations or determinations of applicable interest rates and payments during floating rate interest periods for each of the C D O R Securities listed in Annexes 1 and 2 to this press release. Such replacement will be effective for such determinations for floating rate interest periods commencing (and the related interest determination dates occurring) on and after the C D O R Replacement Date but will not affect any such determinations for floating rate interest periods for which the relevant interest determination dates occur prior to the C D O R Replacement Date. The manner in which Three-Month Fallback Rate (C O R R A) is determined and the timing for determinations of Three-Month Fallback Rate (C O R R A) for purposes of the C D O R Securities differ from the manner and timing of determinations of Three-Month C D O R. See “Three-Month Fallback Rate (C O R R A)” below.
In addition, B A C is announcing that it intends to redeem the C D O R Securities listed in Annex 3 to this press release in accordance with their terms prior to the commencement of the floating rate period for such C D O R Securities. This press release does not constitute a notice of redemption of the C D O R Securities listed in Annex 3, and any such notice of redemption will be issued separately in accordance with the terms of the C D O R Securities listed in Annex 3 and the applicable indenture. See “C D O R Securities—C D O R Securities with Non-Workable Fallback Provisions” below.
Each C D O R Security listed in Annexes 1, 2 and 3 to this press release falls into one of the three categories described below.
The series of C D O R Securities listed in Annex 1 to this press release (the “Annex 1 C D O R Securities”) contain fallback provisions for Three-Month C D O R directing Merrill Lynch Canada Inc. (“M L Canada”), as calculation agent for each series of Annex 1 C D O R Securities, to use as a substitute for Three-Month C D O R if such rate has been permanently or indefinitely discontinued, the alternative reference rate selected or recommended by the central bank, monetary authority, relevant regulatory supervisor or any similar institution (including any committee or working group thereof) that is consistent with accepted market practice for debt obligations such as the Annex 1 C D O R Securities (such rate, the “Alternative Rate”). For each series of the Annex 1 C D O R Securities, M L Canada has determined that it will use Three-Month Fallback Rate (C O R R A) as the Alternative Rate on and after the C D O R Replacement Date.
The series of C D O R Securities listed in Annex 2 to this press release (the “Annex 2 C D O R Securities”) contain fallback provisions for Three-Month C D O R substantially in the form recommended by the Canadian Alternative Reference Rate Working Group (“C A R R”) on July sixth twenty twenty one. These fallback provisions provide that, if an index cessation event and index cessation effective date (as such terms are defined in the Annex 2 C D O R Securities) have occurred with respect to Three-Month C D O R, the rate for an interest determination date occurring on or after the index cessation effective date will be determined as if references to Three-Month C D O R were references to Three-Month Fallback Rate (C O R R A). B A C has determined that an index cessation event has occurred with respect to Three-Month C D O R and that the related index cessation effective date will occur on the C D O R Replacement Date, such that, for each of the Annex 2 C D O R Securities, the rate of interest for each floating rate interest period commencing on or after the C D O R Replacement Date will be determined as if references to Three-Month C D O R were references to Three-Month Fallback Rate (C O R R A).
The single series of C D O R Securities listed in Annex 3 to this press release (the “Annex 3 C D O R Securities”) contains fallback provisions for Three-Month C D O R that provide solely for (i) use of an alternative page to obtain Three-Month C D O R and (ii) inquiries for quotes from banks for Canadian dollar bankers’ acceptances. It is expected that, following the C D O R Replacement Date, such fallback provisions would not be effective in providing a base rate for the Annex 3 C D O R Securities. As a result, B A C intends to redeem the Annex 3 C D O R Securities in accordance with their terms prior to the commencement of the floating rate period. This press release does not constitute a notice of redemption of the Annex 3 C D O R Securities, and any such notice will be issued separately in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Annex 3 C D O R Securities and the governing indenture.
Fallback Rate (C O R R A) is the C A R R-recommended replacement rate for C D O R for legacy floating-rate notes referencing C D O R. Three-Month Fallback Rate (C O R R A) is calculated and provided by B I S L, as the vendor officially selected for that purpose by the International Swaps and Derivatives Association Inc. (“I S D A”), and comprises the daily Canadian Overnight Repo Rate Average (“C O R R A”) administered by the Bank of Canada compounded in arrears over the relevant three-month interest period, and a fixed spread adjustment of zero point three two one three eight percent (being the static spread relating to Three-Month C D O R fixed by B I S L on May sixteenth twenty twenty two). B I S L calculates Three-Month Fallback Rate (C O R R A) in accordance with specific formulae, definitions, rules and conventions set forth in its “I B O R Fallback Rate Adjustments Rule Book.”
Three-Month C D O R is a forward-looking term rate determined by the calculation agent at the beginning of each applicable floating rate interest period for the C D O R Securities. Because Three-Month Fallback Rate (C O R R A) represents daily C O R R A compounded in arrears, unlike Three-Month C D O R, Three-Month Fallback Rate (C O R R A) can be determined only near the end of each applicable interest period for the C D O R Securities. For a description of how the calculation agent will determine Three-Month Fallback Rate (C O R R A) for each floating rate interest period for the C D O R Securities commencing on or after the C D O R Replacement Date, please refer to Annex 4.
Under the terms of the C D O R Securities, M L Canada, as calculation agent, or B A C, as issuer, has the right to make certain adjustments to the terms of the C D O R Securities in connection with the substitution of Three-Month Fallback Rate (C O R R A) for Three-Month C D O R as the base rate for the C D O R Securities. See Annex 5 for a description of such adjustments that M L Canada and B A C, as applicable, have determined will be applicable for the Annex 1 C D O R Securities and Annex 2 C D O R Securities, respectively.
Certain statements contained in this press release may constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements made in this press release include, without limitation, statements concerning the expected transition of the base rate for the C D O R Securities to Three-Month Fallback Rate (C O R R A), and the Corporation’s intention to redeem the C D O R Securities listed in Annex 3. These statements are not guarantees of future results or performance and involve certain risks, uncertainties and assumptions that are difficult to predict or beyond our control. You should not place undue reliance on any forward-looking statement and should consider the uncertainties with respect to such transition and resulting risks that such transition would not occur, and including those discussed under Item one A. “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form ten K for the year ended December thirty first twenty twenty three, and in any of our subsequent Securities and Exchange Commission filings. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made, and except as required by the U.S. federal securities laws, we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect the impact of circumstances or events that arise after the date the forward-looking statement was made.

For each series of C D O R Securities, for each floating rate interest period commencing on or after the C D O R Replacement Date, M L Canada will determine the applicable interest rate as if references to Three-Month C D O R in the terms and provisions of each series of such C D O R Securities were references to Three-Month Fallback Rate (C O R R A), as provided by B I S L on the Fallback Rate (C O R R A) Screen (as defined below), for the Original I B O R Rate Record Day (as defined below) that corresponds to the applicable interest determination date for such floating rate interest period, as most recently provided or published as at eleven thirty a m, Toronto time on the related Fallback Observation Day (as defined below). If publication of Three-Month Fallback Rate (C O R R A) has not ceased permanently or indefinitely, and neither B I S L provides, nor authorized distributors publish, Three-Month Fallback Rate (C O R R A) for the applicable Original I B O R Rate Record Day at, or prior to, eleven thirty a m, Toronto time on such related Fallback Observation Day, then the rate for such interest determination date will be Three-Month Fallback Rate (C O R R A) as most recently provided or published on the Fallback Rate (C O R R A) Screen at that time for the most recent Original I B O R Rate Record Day, notwithstanding that such day does not correspond to such interest determination date for such floating rate interest period.
For purposes of the foregoing description of the determination of Three-Month Fallback Rate (C O R R A):
The following adjustments will be applicable to the terms and provisions of the Annex 1 C D O R Securities for each floating rate interest period commencing on or after the C D O R Replacement Date:
In addition to the adjustments set forth above, the provisions regarding the determination of interest rates and Three-Month Fallback Rate (C O R R A) set forth in Annex 4 represent adjustments to the terms and provisions of to the Annex 1 C D O R Securities.
The following adjustments will be applicable to the terms and provisions of the Annex 2 C D O R Securities for each floating rate interest period commencing on or after the C D O R Replacement Date:
[1] Issue Date of March twenty eighth twenty twenty two for additional notes issued in a reopening of this series.
[2] C A R R has stated that the difference between Three-Month Fallback Rate (C O R R A) and the rate referred to above is that Three-Month Fallback Rate (C O R R A) is a benchmark provided by B I S L, while the rate referred to above is a rate determined by the calculation agent using the same methodology as B I S L, and that such rates are economically the same, differing only as to who calculates them. This footnote is explanatory only and does not represent an adjustment to the terms and provisions of the Annex 1 C D O R Securities.
