The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering $6,547,000 of Enhanced Participation Basket-Linked Notes due March 15, 2028 with a 151.00% participation rate.

The notes do not pay interest and are paid in cash at maturity. For each $1,000 principal, a positive basket return is multiplied by the 151.00% participation rate; a negative basket return reduces principal dollar-for-dollar.

Key economics: a participation rate of 121.50%, a buffer level of 90.00% (buffer percentage 10.00%) and a buffer rate of approximately 111.11%. If the final basket level exceeds the initial level, holders receive principal plus participation × basket return; if the final basket level falls by up to 10.00%, principal is returned; declines beyond 10.00% result in losses up to 100.00%. The initial estimated value was $971.53 per $1,000, below the original issue price, and underwriting commissions equal 1.50% ($33,750), with proceeds to the Bank of $2,216,250.
