Investment Description
| · | Linked to the EURO STOXX 50® Index due October 4, 2022 |
| · | Unlike ordinary debt securities, the Securities do not pay interest or repay a fixed amount of principal at maturity. Instead, the Securities provide for a Payment at Maturity that may be greater than, equal to or less than the Principal Amount of the Securities, depending on the performance of the Reference Asset from the Initial Level to the Final Level. |
The Payment at Maturity will reflect the following terms:
o If the level of the Reference Asset increases:
You will receive the Principal Amount plus 200% participation in the upside performance of the Reference Asset, subject to the Maximum Redemption Amount of 180.00% to 190.00% (to be determined on the Pricing Date) of the Principal Amount of the Securities
o If the level of the Reference Asset is flat or decreases but the decrease is not more than 20%:
You will be repaid the Principal Amount
o If the level of the Reference Asset decreases by more than 20%:
You will receive less than the Principal Amount and will have 1-to-1 downside exposure to the decrease in the level of the Reference Asset in excess of 20%
| · | Investors may lose up to 80% of the Principal Amount |
| · | Any payments on the Securities are subject to TD’s credit risk |
| · | You will have no right to the stocks comprising the Reference Asset (the “Reference Asset Constituents”) |
| · | No periodic interest payments or dividends |
| · | No exchange listing; designed to be held to maturity |
Our estimated value of the Securities on the Pricing Date is expected to be between $905.00 and $925.00 per Security. The estimated value is expected to be less than the public offering price of the Securities. See “Additional Information Regarding Our Estimated Value of the Securities” on page P-26 of the accompanying preliminary pricing supplement.
*To the extent that the issuer makes any change to the expected Pricing Date or expected Issue Date, the Valuation Date and Maturity Date may also be changed in the issuer’s discretion to ensure that the term of the Securities remains the same.
The Securities have complex features and investing in the Securities involves a number of risks. See “Additional Risk Factors” beginning on page P-7 of the accompanying preliminary pricing supplement, “Additional Risk Factors Specific to the Notes” beginning on page PS-5 of the product prospectus supplement MLN-EI-1 dated June 30, 2016 (the “product prospectus supplement”) and “Risk Factors” on page 1 of the prospectus dated June 30, 2016 (the “prospectus”).
This introductory term sheet does not provide all of the information that an investor should consider prior to making an investment decision.
Investors should carefully review the accompanying pricing supplement, product prospectus supplement and prospectus before making a decision to invest in the Securities.
We urge you to consult your investment, legal, tax, accounting and other advisors before you invest in the Securities.

Hypothetical Payout Profile
The profile to the right is based on a hypothetical Maximum Redemption Amount of 185.00% or $1,850.00 per $1,000 Principal Amount (the midpoint of the specified range for the Maximum Redemption Amount), the Leverage Factor of 200% and a Buffer Level equal to 80% of the Initial Level.
This graph has been prepared for illustrative purposes only. Your actual return will depend on the actual Percentage Change, the actual Maximum Redemption Amount, and whether you hold your Securities to maturity.
*The graph to the right represents a hypothetical payout profile for the Securities. The 45 degree dotted line represents the hypothetical percentage change of the Reference Asset and the solid line represents the hypothetical return on the Securities for a given percentage change in the Reference Asset.

1 This is the hypothetical Initial Level; the actual Initial Level will be set on the Pricing Date.
2 The “return” as used in this introductory term sheet is the number, expressed as a percentage, that results from comparing the difference between the Payment at Maturity per $1,000 Principal Amount and $1,000.
The above figures are for purposes of illustration only and may have been rounded for ease of analysis. The actual Payment at Maturity will depend on the actual Final Level and Maximum Redemption Amount.
* These calculations are hypothetical and should not be taken as an indication of the future performance of the Reference Asset as measured from the actual Pricing Date. We cannot give you assurance that the performance of the Reference Asset will result in a positive Percentage Change, or any positive return on your initial investment.

How the Payment at Maturity is Calculated
The Payment at Maturity will be determined as follows:
| · | If the Percentage Change is positive, then the investor will receive an amount per Security equal to the lesser of: |
| (i) | Principal Amount + (Principal Amount x Percentage Change x Leverage Factor); and |
| (ii) | the Maximum Redemption Amount. |
| · | If the Percentage Change is less than or equal to 0% but greater than or equal to -20%, then the investor will receive an amount per Security equal to the Principal Amount. |
| · | If the Percentage Change is less than -20%, then the investor will receive less than the Principal Amount per Security, calculated using the following formula: |
Principal Amount + [Principal Amount x (Percentage Change + Buffer Percentage)]
If the Final Level is less than Buffer Level, the investor will receive less, and possibly 80% less, than the Principal Amount of the Securities at maturity.
Historical Performance of the Reference Asset
* The graph above sets forth the historical daily performance of the Reference Asset from January 2, 2007 through August 31, 2017. The graph is based upon actual daily historical closing levels of the Reference Asset.
We obtained the information regarding the historical performance of the Reference Asset used in calculating the graph above from Bloomberg® Professional Service (“Bloomberg”).
We have not conducted any independent review or due diligence of publicly available information obtained from Bloomberg. The historical performance of the Reference Asset should not be taken as an indication of its future performance, and no assurance can be given as to the Final Level of the Reference Asset. Additionally, the hypothetical examples above reflect the performance of the Reference Asset, and do not reflect or incorporate any terms of the Security. We cannot give you assurance that the performance of the Reference Asset will result in any positive return on your initial investment.
We have filed a registration statement (including a prospectus), a product prospectus supplement and a pricing supplement with the SEC for the offering to which this free writing prospectus relates. Before you invest, you should read the prospectus in that registration statement and other documents that we have filed with the SEC for more complete information about us and this offering.

| · | Principal at Risk.

You will lose 1% of the Principal Amount of your Securities for each 1% that the Final Level is less than the Initial Level by more than the Buffer Percentage and you may lose up to 80% of your Principal Amount. |
| · | The Securities Do Not Pay Interest and Your Return on the Securities May Be Lower Than the Return on a Conventional Debt Security of Comparable Maturity. |
| · | Your Potential Return on the Securities Will Be Limited by the Maximum Redemption Amount and May Be Less Than the Return on a Direct Investment In the Reference Asset. |
| · | Investors Are Subject to TD’s Credit Risk, and TD’s Credit Ratings and Credit Spreads May Adversely Affect the Market Value of the Securities. |
| · | The Agent Discount, Offering Expenses and Certain Hedging Costs Are Likely to Adversely Affect Secondary Market Prices. |

| · | An Investment in the Securities Will Be Subject to Risks Associated with Non-U.S. Securities Markets. |
| · | The Percent Change for the Reference Asset Will Not Be Adjusted for Changes in Exchange Rates Relative to the U.S. Dollar Even Though the Equity Securities Included in the Reference Asset are Traded in a Non-U.S. Currency and the Securities are Denominated in U.S. Dollars. |
| · | The U.K.'s Referendum to Leave the European Union May Adversely Affect the Performance of the Securities. |

| · | The Temporary Price at Which We May Initially Buy the Securities in the Secondary Market May Not Be Indicative of Future Prices of Your Securities. |
| · | The Valuation Date and Therefore the Maturity Date May be Postponed In the Case of a Market Disruption Event. |
| · | Significant Aspects of the Tax Treatment of the Securities Are Uncertain. |
