Subject: AAPL Autocallable [C] From: Vahe Stepanian Date: Thu, 23 Jul 2015 15:33:07 -0400 To: jeffrey E. <[email protected]> Cc: Daniel Sabba Ariane Dwyer Paul Morris < Stewart Oldfield Richard Kahn Classification: Confidential Jeffrey — we indicatively priced the below note following the downward move in Apple (AAPL) this week. The structure takes advantage of the lower stock price and increase in volatility, while offering an attractive yield if you believe AAPL will trade sideways or positive over the next 18 months. We can also look at other AAPL implementations if interested. Please let us know. Thank you, Vahe Sample transaction terms - 18mo AAPL Phoenix Autocallable Note For discussion purposes only — terms subject to change Issuer: Goldman Sachs Maturity: 18 months, callable after 3 months Underlying: Apple Inc.
