Risks
This is an overview of the main risks associated with this investment. Further (and more complete) details of the main risks associated with this security are set out in the PDS.
- Capital invested is at risk – There is no capital protection or guarantee by the Australian government or any other party (including the Issuer). Therefore, if the Issuer or Under Armour default, you may not receive the amount you have invested on maturity.
- Credit exposures to Under Armour – This return on this security is linked to the Under Armour Senior Unsecured Note, issued in USD and paying 3.25%pa, maturing on 15 June 2026 (Under Armour Bond). The performance of the Under Armour Bond depends on Under Armour meeting its obligations under the Under Armour Bond. Therefore, investors have an exposure to the credit worthiness of Under Armour.
- Value of the Units before the Maturity Date – The value of this bond-linked security before the Maturity Date will be determined by many factors, including the occurrence of an Early Maturity Event (eg Under Armour exercises its right to redeem the Under Armour Bond before the maturity date of the bond, if Under Armour default under its obligations under the Under Armour or if there is a negative impact on the rating of the Under Armour Bond arises as the result of a ‘change of control’ of Under Armour). In the case of an Early Maturity Event, the securities will be redeemed early and the foreign exchange hedge which has been put in place by the Issuer may not apply and investors may have exposure to the AUD/USD exchange rate.
- Historical Performance – Historical performance of Under Armour or the Issuer are not an indication of their future performance.
- Liquidity risk – If you want to sell your securities before the Maturity Date, there may be a delay, or you may not be able to do so, or may not be able to do so within your desired timeframe.
- Indirect Investment Risk – Compared to a direct investment (including bonds) in Under Armour, the investor will not be entitled to receive dividend or other payments (if any) nor have any voting rights for corporate actions to do with Under Armour.

There is a risk that the Custodian may be unable to perform its obligations under the Custody Deed and investors may not receive certain money when such amounts become due to them. However, the Custodian is a special purpose vehicle set up to act as Custodian for these types of securities and other structured products and has no other obligations.
