Key Risks |
An investment in the Dorsey Wright MLP Index Exchange Traded Notes described herein (ETNs) involves risks. Selected risks are summarized here, but we urge you to read the more detailed explanation of risks described under “Risk Factors” in the Bank of Montreal pricing supplement, as amended, prospectus supplement and prospectus to which this free writing prospectus relates. Please read those documents and the other documents relating to this offering that Bank of Montreal has filed with the SEC for more complete information about Bank of Montreal and this offering. These documents may be obtained without cost by visiting EDGAR on the SEC Website at www.sec.gov. Uncertain Principal Repayment - You may receive less than the principal amount of your ETNs at maturity, call or upon redemption. If the level of the Index decreases, or does not increase, by an amount equal to the percentage of the principal amount represented by the Accrued Tracking Fee and the Redemption Fee, if applicable, you will receive less, and possibly significantly less, than your original investment in the ETNs. Credit Risk of Bank of Montreal - The ETNs are unsecured debt obligations of the issuer, Bank of Montreal, and are not, either directly or indirectly, an obligation of or guaranteed by any third party. Any payments you are entitled to receive on your ETNs, including any payment at maturity, call or redemption, are subject to our ability to pay our obligations as they come due. As a result, the actual and perceived creditworthiness of Bank of Montreal will affect the market value, if any, of the ETNs prior to maturity, call or redemption. In addition, in the event that Bank of Montreal were to default on its obligations, you may not receive any amounts owed to you under the terms of the ETNs. No Fixed Interest Payments - You will not receive any fixed periodic interest payments on the ETNs, and your quarterly Coupon Payments are uncertain and could be zero. A Trading Market for the ETNs May Not Continue Over the Term of the ETNs - The ETNs are listed on Nasdaq under the symbol “BMLP”. However, a trading market for your ETNs may not continue for the term of the ETNs. We are not required to maintain any listing of the ETNs on Nasdaq or any other exchange or quotation system.
The intraday indicative value and the closing indicative value are not the same as the closing price or any other trading price of the ETNs in the secondary market -
The closing indicative value will be published on each Index Business Day under the Bloomberg ticker symbol “BMLPIV Paying a premium purchase price over the intraday indicative value of the ETNs could lead to significant losses in the event you sell the ETNs at a time when that premium is no longer present in the market place or the ETNs are called - Paying a premium purchase price over the intraday indicative value of the ETNs could lead to significant losses in the event you sell the ETNs at a time when such premium is no longer present in the market place or the notes are called, in which case you will receive a cash payment in an amount based on the index closing levels of the notes during the call measurement period. Call Feature - Your ETNs may be repurchased on or after June 22, 2017 at the issuer’s option and without your consent. In the event that the ETNs are called, the call settlement amount may be significantly less than the stated principal amount of the ETNs or the price at which you purchased your ETNs. The Index has a limited performance history - The DWA MLP Select™ Index was launched on May 1, 2015, and therefore has no performance history prior to that date. Consequently, little or no historical information will be available for you to consider in making an independent investigation of the Index’s performance, which may make it difficult for you to make an informed decision with respect to an investment in the ETNs. Restrictions on Repurchases by the Issuer - You must offer the applicable minimum redemption amount of $2,500,000 (50,000 ETNs) to the issuer for your offer for redemption to be considered. Tax Treatment - Significant aspects of the tax treatment of the ETNs are uncertain and may be less favorable than a direct investment in MLPs. You should consult with your own tax advisor about your own tax situation. |
