The basket includes equal weights of the Australian dollar, the Brazilian real, the Canadian dollar and the Swiss franc.

The payout at maturity will be par plus 105% to 115% of the basket return, subject to a minimum payout of par. The basket return will be positive if the basket appreciates relative to the U.S. dollar.
