Investment Description

Linked to a Basket of Six Exchange-Traded Funds due December 3, 2020
The Basket will consist of six exchange-traded funds (each, a “Basket Component”): the SPDR® S&P 500® ETF Trust (the “SPY”) (50%), the iShares® Russell 2000 ETF (the “IWM”) (15%), the iShares® MSCI EAFE ETF (the “EFA”) (15%), the iShares® MSCI Emerging Markets ETF (the “EEM”) (10%), the PowerShares DB Commodity Index Tracking Fund (the “DBC”) (5%) and the Vanguard® REIT ETF (the “VNQ”) (5%).
Unlike ordinary debt securities, the Securities do not pay interest or repay a fixed amount of principal at maturity. Instead, the Securities provide for a Payment at Maturity that may be greater than, equal to or less than the Principal Amount of the Securities, depending on the performance of the Basket from the Initial Level to the Final Level.

The Payment at Maturity will reflect the following terms:

o If the level of the Basket increases:

You will receive the Principal Amount plus 150% participation in the upside performance of the Basket, subject to the Maximum Redemption Amount of 145% to 150% (to be determined on the Pricing Date) of the Principal Amount of the Securities

o If the level of the Basket is flat or decreases but the decrease is not more than 15%:

You will be repaid the Principal Amount

o If the level of the Basket decreases by more than 15%:

You will receive less than the Principal Amount and will have 1-to-1 downside exposure to the decrease in the level of the Basket in excess of 15%

Investors may lose up to 85% of the Principal Amount
Any payments on the Securities are subject to TD’s credit risk
You will have no right to the Basket Component or any securities tracked by the Basket Components
No periodic interest payments or dividends
No exchange listing; designed to be held to maturity

Our estimated value of the Securities on the Pricing Date, based on our internal pricing models, is expected to be between $936.00 and $960.00 per Security. The estimated value is expected to be less than the public offering price of the Securities. See “Additional Information Regarding Our Estimated Value of the Securities” beginning on page P-45 of the accompanying preliminary pricing supplement.


*To the extent that the issuer makes any change to the expected Pricing Date or expected Issue Date, the Valuation Date and Maturity Date may also be changed in the issuer’s discretion to ensure that the term of the Securities remains the same.

The Securities have complex features and investing in the Securities involves a number of risks. See “Additional Risk Factors” on page P-7 of the accompanying preliminary pricing supplement, “Additional Risk Factors Specific to the Notes” beginning on page PS-4 of the product prospectus supplement MLN-ES-ETF-1 dated August 31, 2015 (the “product prospectus supplement”) and “Risk Factors” on page 1 of the prospectus dated July 28, 2014 (the “prospectus”).

This introductory term sheet does not provide all of the information that an investor should consider prior to making an investment decision.

Investors should carefully review the accompanying pricing supplement, product prospectus supplement and prospectus before making a decision to invest in the Securities.

 

We urge you to consult your investment, legal, tax, accounting and other advisors before you invest in the Securities.

Hypothetical Payout Profile

 

The profile to the right is based on a hypothetical Maximum Redemption Amount of 147.50% or $1,475.00 per $1,000 Principal Amount (the midpoint of the specified range for the Maximum Redemption Amount), the Leverage Factor of 150% and a Buffer Level equal to 85% of the Initial Level.

This graph has been prepared for illustrative purposes only. Your actual return will depend on the actual Percentage Change, the actual Maximum Redemption Amount, and whether you hold your Securities to maturity.

*The graph to the right represents a hypothetical payout profile for the Securities. The 45 degree dotted line represents the hypothetical percentage change of the Basket and the solid line represents the hypothetical return on the Securities for a given percentage change in the Basket.

1 The “return” as used in this introductory term sheet is the number, expressed as a percentage, that results from comparing the difference between the Payment at Maturity per $1,000 Principal Amount and $1,000.

2 The Initial Level will be set to 100 on the Pricing Date.

The above figures are for purposes of illustration only and may have been rounded for ease of analysis. The actual Payment at Maturity will depend on the actual Final Level and Maximum Redemption Amount.

* These calculations are hypothetical and should not be taken as an indication of the future performance of the Basket Components or the Basket as measured from the actual Pricing Date. We cannot give you assurance that the performance of the Basket Components will result in a positive Percentage Change, or any positive return on your initial investment.

How the Payment at Maturity is Calculated

The Payment at Maturity will be determined as follows:

If the Percentage Change is positive, then the investor will receive an amount per Security equal to the lesser of:
(i)Principal Amount + (Principal Amount x Percentage Change x Leverage Factor); and
(ii)the Maximum Redemption Amount.
If the Percentage Change is less than or equal to 0% but greater than or equal to -15%, then the investor will receive an amount per Security equal to the Principal Amount.
If the Percentage Change is less than -15%, then the investor will receive less than the Principal Amount per Security, calculated using the following formula:

Principal Amount + [Principal Amount x (Percentage Change + Buffer Percentage)]

If the Final Level is less than Buffer Level, the investor will receive less, and possibly 85% less, than the Principal Amount of the Securities at maturity.

 

Hypothetical Values of the Basket*

 

 

* While actual historical information on the Basket will not exist before the Pricing Date, the graph above sets forth the hypothetical daily performance of the Basket from January 2, 2008 through May 2, 2016. The graph is based upon actual daily historical closing prices of the Basket Components and a hypothetical Basket level of 100.00 as of January 2, 2008. The dotted line presents the Buffer Level of 85.00, which is equal to 85% of the Initial Level of 100, which will be set on the Pricing Date.

We obtained the information regarding the historical performance of the Basket Components used in calculating the graph above from Bloomberg Financial Markets.

We have not conducted any independent review or due diligence of publicly available information obtained from Bloomberg® Professional Service (“Bloomberg”). The hypothetical performance of the Basket should not be taken as an indication of its future performance, and no assurance can be given as to the Final Level of the Basket. Additionally, the hypothetical examples above reflect the performance of the hypothetical Basket, and do not reflect or incorporate any terms of the Security. We cannot give you assurance that the performance of the Basket will result in any positive return on your initial investment.
