The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering senior unsecured market-linked securities tied to the common stock of UnitedHealth Group Incorporated. Each security has a $1,000 face amount and can pay a contingent monthly coupon at a rate of at least 10.00% per annum, but only if the UNH stock closing price on the relevant calculation day is at or above 65% of the starting price.
From June 2026 to November 2026, if UNH closes at or above the starting price on any monthly calculation day, the notes are automatically called for $1,000 plus the final coupon. If not called, principal is protected at maturity only if the final UNH price is at or above the downside threshold, also set at 65% of the starting price; otherwise, repayment is reduced in line with UNH’s decline and investors can lose more than 35%, up to their entire principal. The notes do not participate in any upside of UNH, pay no dividends, are not listed on an exchange, and all payments are subject to the credit risk of The Bank of Nova Scotia.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering senior unsecured Market Linked Securities tied to the S&P 500® Index under its Series A program. Each note has a $1,000 face amount, no periodic interest and matures on January 4, 2030, with principal repayment at maturity subject to the Bank’s credit risk.
At maturity, if the Index is above its starting level, investors receive $1,000 plus 100% of the Index gain, capped by a maximum return of at least 23.00%, giving a maximum maturity payment of at least $1,230 per note. If the Index is flat or lower, the payment is $1,000.
The preliminary estimated value is between $921.02 and $951.02 per $1,000 note, reflecting selling commissions, structuring and hedging costs. The notes will not be listed, and secondary market liquidity, if any, is expected to be limited. Agent compensation includes up to $38.25 per note in discounts and concessions. The notes are not insured by Canadian or U.S. deposit insurance schemes and include complex tax and market risk features.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering unsubordinated, unsecured Dual Directional Capped Buffered Notes linked to the S&P 500 Index, maturing on December 2, 2027. Each Note has a $1,000 principal amount, with a minimum investment of $10,000.
If the S&P 500 Final Value is at or above its Initial Value, investors receive the positive index return, capped at a Maximum Upside Return of at least 18.92%. If the Final Value is below the Initial Value but at or above 80% of the Initial Value, investors earn the absolute value of the negative performance, up to a maximum payment of $1,200 per $1,000 Note. Below the 80% buffer, investors lose 1.25% of principal for each 1% drop beyond the 20% buffer and can lose all principal.
The Notes pay no interest, all payments occur at maturity, and returns depend entirely on the index and the credit of the Bank. The initial estimated value is expected to be between $949.31 and $979.31 per $1,000, below the 100% Original Issue Price, reflecting structuring, distribution and hedging costs. The Notes will not be listed, may have limited liquidity, and are not insured by the CDIC or FDIC.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering $3,543,720 of Trigger Autocallable Notes linked to the EURO STOXX 50® Index, issued at $10 per Note under its Senior Note Program, Series A. The Notes have a term of about five years, are callable quarterly after 12 months, and pay a fixed "call return" if automatically called, based on a 9.30% per annum call return rate.
The initial index level is 5,515.09, which is both the call threshold and the reference for a downside threshold set at 4,136.32 (75% of the initial level). If the Notes are never called and the final index level is at or above the downside threshold, investors receive only their principal back. If the final level is below the downside threshold, repayment is reduced in line with the index loss and investors can lose their entire investment.
The Notes pay no interest or dividends, are not listed on any exchange, and may have limited or no secondary market. All payments depend on the creditworthiness of BNS, and the pricing supplement highlights significant market, liquidity, structural and tax risks relative to conventional debt.

At maturity, if the Final Value is at or above 70% of the Initial Value, investors receive full principal back plus any due coupons. If it is below that level, principal is reduced by about 1.4286% for each 1% decline beyond the 30% buffer, down to a potential total loss. All payments depend on the creditworthiness of The Bank of Nova Scotia, and the Notes are not listed or insured.

Each security has a $1,000 stated principal amount and may pay a contingent quarterly coupon of $51.50 per security (equivalent to 20.60% per annum) if on a determination date the closing price of each stock is at least 70% of its initial share price.
If on any non-final determination date the closing price of both stocks is at least 100% of their initial share prices, the notes are automatically redeemed for the stated principal plus that period’s coupon, and no further payments are made. At maturity, if the final price of every stock is at or above its respective 70% downside threshold, investors receive principal plus the final coupon; otherwise, the payoff is reduced 1-to-1 with the decline of the worst performer, potentially to zero.
The securities are senior unsecured debt of BNS, not principal protected, not insured by CDIC or FDIC, will not be listed on any exchange, and have an estimated value on the pricing date expected between $944.25 and $974.25 per $1,000 issue price.

If on a non-final determination date SPY closes at or above the 100% call threshold price of $662.63, the notes are automatically redeemed at par plus the applicable coupon and any unpaid coupons under the memory feature. If held to maturity and SPY finishes below the downside threshold, repayment is reduced by about 1.1111% for every 1% SPY falls below that level, and principal can be fully lost.
The notes are senior unsecured obligations of BNS, are not insured or bail-inable, will not be listed on any exchange, and had an estimated value on the pricing date of $996 per $1,000 issue price, reflecting selling, structuring and hedging costs and BNS’ internal funding rate.
