The Notes are not guaranteed by Bank of America, N.A. or any other bank, are not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other governmental agency and involve investment risks. Potential purchasers of the Notes should consider the information in “Risk Factors” beginning on page S-8 of the accompanying product supplement, page S-5 of the prospectus supplement, and page 8 of the prospectus.

None of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), any state securities commission, or any other regulatory body has approved or disapproved of these Notes or passed upon the adequacy or accuracy of this pricing supplement, the product supplement, the prospectus supplement, or the prospectus. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

In connection with this offering, Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated (“MLPF&S”) is acting in its capacity as principal for your account. We will deliver the Notes in book-entry form only through The Depository Trust Company on July 28, 2015 against payment in immediately available funds.

We will deliver the Notes against payment therefor on a date that is greater than three business days following the pricing date. Under Rule 15c6-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in three business days, unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade the Notes more than three business days prior to the original issue date will be required to specify alternative settlement arrangements to prevent a failed settlement.

THE UNDERLYING INDEX

All disclosures contained in this pricing supplement regarding the Underlying Index, including, without limitation, its make-up, method of calculation, and changes in its components, have been derived from publicly available sources. The information reflects the policies of, and is subject to change by, Bloomberg Finance L.P. Bloomberg Finance L.P. has no obligation to continue to publish, and may discontinue publication of, the Underlying Index. The consequences of Bloomberg Finance L.P. discontinuing publication of the Underlying Index are discussed in the section of product supplement CLN-1 entitled “Description of the Notes—Discontinuance of an Underlying Index” beginning on page S-27. None of us, the calculation agent, or MLPF&S accepts any responsibility for the calculation, maintenance, or publication of the Underlying Index or any successor index.

On April 10, 2014, Bloomberg Finance L.P. acquired the Dow Jones-UBS Commodity Indexes^SM. The indexes were renamed from the “Dow Jones-UBS Commodity Index Family” to the “Bloomberg Commodity Index Family” on July 1, 2014, and their tickers were changed from “DJUBS” tickers to “BCOM” tickers. Both sets of tickers were available until July 31, 2014, and DJUBS tickers were discontinued thereafter.

The Bloomberg Commodity Index 2 Month Forward Total Return^SM reflects the return on a fully collateralized investment in the Bloomberg Commodity Index 2 Month Forward^SM (“BCOMF2”), which is a two-month forward version of the Bloomberg Commodity Index^SM. The Underlying Index is fully collateralized because it combines the returns of the BCOMF2 with the returns on cash collateral invested in U.S. Treasury Bills. The Bloomberg Commodity Index^SM (“BCOM”) is a proprietary index that was established on July 14, 1998 by Dow Jones & Company, Inc. (“Dow Jones”) and UBS AG (“UBS”) to provide a liquid and diversified benchmark for commodities investments. The Underlying Index is also designed to be a “tradable” index that is readily accessible to market participants. The BCOMF2 tracks the returns of rolling commodities futures contracts. The BCOMF2 is currently comprised of futures contracts on 22 physical commodities. The 22 commodities that currently comprise the Underlying Index (the “Index Commodities”) are: aluminum, Brent crude oil, coffee, copper, corn, cotton, gold, lean hogs, live cattle, natural gas, nickel, silver, soybean meal, soybean oil, soybeans, sugar, unleaded gasoline, ULS diesel, wheat, HRW wheat, WTI crude oil and zinc.
