The securities (face amount $1,000 each) were priced on March 17, 2026 and issued on March 20, 2026, with an original offering price of $1,000 and the Bank's estimated value of $955.66 per security.

The securities are auto-callable on quarterly observation dates if Oracle's closing price is greater than or equal to the starting price ($154.69). If not called, maturity is March 22, 2029, and principal repayment depends on the ending price versus the downside threshold ($77.345, 50% of the starting price). All payments are subject to the Bank's credit risk.
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 reference a weighted basket (EURO STOXX 50 40%, TOPIX 25%, FTSE 100 17%, SMI 11%, S&P/ASX 200 7%) measured from the trade date March 13, 2026 to the valuation date March 13, 2028.
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. The initial estimated value was $970.13 per $1,000; original issue price is $1,000 (100.00%) and underwriting commissions are 1.50%.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering Buffered Enhanced Participation Basket‑Linked Notes due March 15, 2028 with an aggregate principal of $2,250,000 and a $1,000 principal amount per note. The notes pay no interest and reference a weighted basket of five international indices measured from the trade date (March 13, 2026) to the valuation date (March 13, 2028).
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.
The Bank of Nova Scotia offers $31,650,000 of Contingent Income Auto-Callable Securities due March 18, 2027 linked to the common stock of CoreWeave, Inc.
Each $1,000 note is a principal-at-risk note that can pay a contingent quarterly coupon of $79.00 (31.60% per annum) if the closing price on a determination date is at or above the downside threshold of $32.444 (40.00% of the initial share price). The call threshold and initial share price are $81.11 (100.00%). If not redeemed early and the final share price is below the downside threshold, the maturity payment equals the stated principal multiplied by the share performance factor and may be less than 40.00% of principal or zero. All payments are subject to BNS credit risk. BNS estimated the securities' value at $991.15 on the pricing date; issue price is $1,000.00 per security.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering $3,802,500 of Trigger Autocallable Notes due March 18, 2031, linked to an unequally weighted basket of five equity indices. The Notes pay a call return rate of 9.00% per annum (callable quarterly after 12 months), have a downside threshold of 75.00% of the initial basket level, and are sold at $10.00 per Note (minimum 100 Notes). If an observation-date basket closing level is at or above the initial basket level (call threshold), the Notes will be automatically called and payoff equals principal plus the applicable call return; if not called and the final basket level is below the downside threshold, the maturity payment will decline in line with the basket return and could result in total loss. BNS creditworthiness and limited secondary market/liquidity are material considerations; BNS initial estimated value per Note was $9.53 on the trade date.

Payments, including principal, depend on BNS creditworthiness; if the final level is below the 75.00% downside threshold, investors can lose a substantial portion or all of their principal.
