Before you invest, you should read the prospectus dated April 4, 2011 contained in that registration statement, the preliminary prospectus supplement dated June 18, 2012 and other documents Zions Bancorporation has filed with the SEC for more complete information about Zions Bancorporation and this offering. You may get these documents and other documents Zions Bancorporation has filed for free by visiting EDGAR on the SEC Web site at www.sec.gov. *The current Market-Clearing Yield/Final Auction Yield is calculated as Yield to Worst (YTW) which is the lowest yield of yield to maturity, yield to call, yield to put, or other yields when a bond is callable, puttable, exchangeable, or has other features. If a bond is called, put or exchanged before maturity, the bondholder only earns interest on the time that has elapsed between purchasing the bond and its early redemption. The resulting yield is less than what would have been earned had the bond been held until maturity.
