The Bank of Nova Scotia offers Digital Notes linked to the EURO STOXX Banks Index. These unsubordinated, unsecured notes pay no interest and have a term expected to be approximately 16 to 18 months from the trade date to the valuation date. At maturity you receive either a capped positive payment (the threshold settlement amount, expected between $1,139.10 and $1,163.20 per $1,000) if the final level is at least 75.00% of the initial level, or a loss that increases by approximately 1.3333% for each 1% decline below that 75.00% threshold (the buffer rate is approximately 133.33%), potentially causing a total loss of principal.
Original issue price is 100.00% with underwriting commissions of 1.00% (about $10.00 per $1,000). The initial estimated value range is stated as $953.28 to $983.28 per $1,000, below the issue price. Payments are subject to the Banks creditworthiness and the offering is subject to completion.

Each note has a $1,000 principal amount and pays no interim interest; maturity payoff depends on the reference asset return versus the initial level of 5,505.80.

The Bank of Nova Scotia (BNS) is offering two separate series of Airbag Autocallable Yield Notes linked to the common stock of AbbVie Inc. and JPMorgan Chase & Co.. The aggregate issue sizes are $1,930,000 (AbbVie notes) and $3,972,000 (JPM notes). Each Note has a $1,000 principal amount, a roughly 12‑month term (maturing April 2, 2027), fixed monthly coupons (~10.00% per annum for AbbVie and 10.00% for JPM listings shown), an automatic call if the underlying equals or exceeds the call threshold on an observation date, and contingent physical settlement at maturity if the final level is below the conversion level.
The Notes pay coupons while outstanding but do not provide dividend rights or upside participation in the underlying equity; if not called and the final level is below the conversion level, holders receive a share delivery amount calculated as $1,000 divided by the conversion level (subject to adjustments), which may be worth substantially less than principal.

The call return rate will be set on the trade date and is indicated on the cover as 10.55%–11.55% per annum.

The notes have a $1,000 stated principal amount and pay a contingent quarterly coupon of $47.15 (equivalent to 18.86% per annum) on each determination date when the closing price of the underlying stock is at least 60.00% of the initial share price (the downside threshold). The notes are automatically redeemed early if the underlying stock closes on a determination date at or above the call threshold (equal to 100.00% of the initial share price), in which case holders receive the stated principal plus contingent coupons due. If the final share price is below the downside threshold, holders receive the stated principal multiplied by the share performance factor (final/initial share price) and may lose a significant portion or all of their investment. Payments are subject to BNS credit risk. Pricing date is April 10, 2026 and original issue date is April 15, 2026.
