The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering $16,425,000 of Digital Notes linked to the S&P 500® Index maturing on May 13, 2027. Each note has a $1,000 principal amount and was issued at 100% of principal.
Payments at maturity depend on the index return measured from the strike date (March 31, 2026, initial level 6,528.52) to the valuation date (May 11, 2027). If the final level is ≥ 90.00% of the initial level, holders receive the maximum payment of $1,116.00 per $1,000. If the final level is below that threshold, losses apply and the notes use a buffer rate of approximately 111.11%, meaning losses beyond the 10.00% threshold are amplified. The initial estimated value was $993.80 per $1,000. All payments are subject to the Bank’s credit risk and the notes are not listed.
The Bank of Nova Scotia offers $441,000 of Buffered Index-Linked Notes linked to the S&P 500® Index due July 6, 2027.

Investors receive: full principal plus the reference asset return up to a capped maximum upside payment of $1,125.00 per $1,000; if the final level falls up to 10.00% below the initial level the investor receives the absolute value of that decline; if the final level falls more than 10.00% below the initial level the investor suffers losses equal to the reference asset return plus 10.00% (up to a 90.00% loss of principal). The Bank disclosed an initial estimated value of $972.72 per $1,000 on the trade date and warns of limited liquidity, hedging conflicts, tax uncertainties and dependence on the Bank’s creditworthiness.

The notes pay no interest, reference price return only, and their initial estimated value was $970.20 per $1,000 versus an original issue price of 100.00%. Payments depend on the Bank’s creditworthiness and the least performing reference asset on the March 31, 2028 valuation date.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is issuing $4,390,000 of Autocallable Trigger Notes linked to the least performing of the Nasdaq-100 Index and the Russell 2000 Index with a potential automatic call on March 31, 2027 and maturity on April 5, 2028. Each $1,000 note pays no interest. If the closing levels of both indices on the call observation date are at or above their initial levels, the notes will be called and pay principal plus a 15.25% call premium. If not called, the maturity payout depends on the least performing index: a positive return uses a 250.00% participation rate, full principal is preserved only if each index finishes at or above 75.00% of its initial level, and losses occur proportionally below that trigger (potentially a 100% loss). Payments are subject to the Bank's credit risk. The Bank’s initial estimated value was $956.75 per $1,000, below the original issue price.
The Bank of Nova Scotia offers Airbag Autocallable Yield Notes linked to the common stock of International Paper Company. These senior, unsecured notes pay a fixed quarterly coupon (to be set on the trade date) and may be automatically called on quarterly observation dates. If not called and the final closing level is below the conversion level, holders receive a share delivery amount calculated as $1,000 divided by the conversion level (rounded), which can be worth less than principal; in extreme cases investors may lose their entire investment. Payments depend on BNS creditworthiness. Trade date, settlement date, observation dates, final valuation date and maturity are indicated in the supplement.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering Digital Notes linked to the S&P 500® Index. The notes are non‑interest bearing, senior unsecured obligations with an expected term of approximately 25 to 28 months. At maturity you receive a capped positive payout if the final level is >= 85.00% of the initial level (the maximum payment amount is expected to be between $1,171.50 and $1,201.70 per $1,000). If the final level is below 85.00%, losses apply: the structure uses a buffer rate of approximately 117.65%, which multiplies the negative reference asset return beyond the 15.00% threshold and can cause loss of up to 100% of principal. The Bank’s initial estimated value is expected to be between $955.80 and $985.80 per $1,000, and the original issue price is 100%. Any payment depends on the Bank’s creditworthiness; there will be no dividends, no interim payments, limited liquidity and no exchange listing.
