Bank of America Corporation and its wholly-owned subsidiary BAC Canada Finance Company (together, the “Offerors”) today announced that their pending tender offers (the “Offers”) for certain of their respective senior notes due 2014 listed in the table below (collectively, the “Notes”) have been oversubscribed. Pursuant to the terms of the Offers, the Offerors will accept approximately $4.0 billion in aggregate principal amount of Notes (or its equivalent in the currencies in which certain of the Notes are denominated).

As of 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on October 30, 2013, which was the “Early Tender Deadline” for the Offers, a total of approximately $4.6 billion in aggregate principal amount of the Notes (or its equivalent) had been tendered and not withdrawn.

The following table lists the series of Notes that are subject to the Offers, the acceptance priority level assigned to each series of Notes in the table below (the “Acceptance Priority Levels”), and the aggregate principal amount of each series that was tendered and not withdrawn as of the Early Tender Deadline:

1 The Floating Rate Senior Notes due February 21, 2014 are obligations of BAC Canada Finance Company; all other issues of Notes are obligations of Bank of America Corporation.
2 Originally issued by Merrill Lynch & Co., Inc.

The aggregate consideration payable for all valid tenders of Notes was approximately $4.7 billion based on the results of the Offers as of the Early Tender Deadline. Under the terms of the Offers, the maximum aggregate consideration payable for tendered Notes is $4.0 billion (or its equivalent). Accordingly, all tenders of Notes in series with Acceptance Priority Levels 1 through 15 will be accepted for purchase. In addition, approximately 12.5% of tenders in the series with Acceptance Priority Level 16 will be accepted for purchase. Tenders of Notes which are not accepted for purchase will be promptly returned to holders.

Payment for all Notes that are accepted for purchase is expected to occur on November 4, 2013. Such payment will be made in the same currency in which each applicable series of Notes is denominated. Holders of Notes accepted for purchase will also receive accrued and unpaid interest on their purchased Notes from the last interest payment date applicable to such Notes to, but not including, the settlement date.

Withdrawal rights with respect to tendered Notes have expired. Accordingly, tendered Notes may no longer be withdrawn.

The Offers will expire at 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on November 14, 2013 (the “Expiration Date”). However, since the Offers were oversubscribed as of the Early Tender Deadline, no additional tenders will be accepted under the terms of the Offers.

The complete terms and conditions of the Offers are described in the Offer to Purchase, dated October 17, 2013 (the "Offer to Purchase"), and the related Letters of Transmittal (the "Letters of Transmittal").
