The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering $21,778,000 of Contingent Income Auto-Callable Securities due May 18, 2029. These are senior unsecured notes tied to the common stock of Eli Lilly and Company that pay a contingent quarterly coupon of $30.50 (12.20% per annum) only if predetermined closing-price tests are met on specified determination dates. The notes are auto-callable if the underlying stock meets the call threshold on a determination date; otherwise final payment at maturity depends on the final share price and may be less than 70.00% of the stated principal amount, potentially resulting in a total loss of principal. All payments are subject to BNS credit risk, the issuer's internal valuation is lower than the issue price ($966 estimated value vs $1,000 issue price), and secondary-market liquidity may be limited.
The Bank of Nova Scotia (BNS) is offering $17,683,000 of Contingent Income Auto-Callable Securities due May 18, 2029 linked to the common stock of Broadcom Inc. Each note has a stated principal of $1,000 and offers a contingent quarterly coupon of $37.50 (15.00% per annum) if the underlying stock's closing price on a determination date is at or above the downside threshold of $255.114 (60.00% of the initial share price). Notes auto-redeem early if the closing price on a determination date meets or exceeds the call threshold of $425.19 (100.00% of the initial share price). If the final share price is below the downside threshold, maturity payment equals the stated principal multiplied by the share performance factor and may be less than 60.00% of principal or zero. The notes are senior unsecured obligations of BNS, are not listed, have limited liquidity, and are subject to BNS credit risk. The initial estimated value per note on the pricing date was $958.50, below the $1,000 issue price.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering $22,625,000 principal of Autocallable Buffered Notes linked to the shares of the iShares® Expanded Tech-Software Sector ETF (initial price $91.78). The notes mature on October 18, 2028 but may be automatically called on October 15, 2027 if the ETF closes at or above 80.00% of the initial price, producing a cash payment of principal plus a 15.60% call premium ($1,156.00 per $1,000) on the call payment date. If not called, maturity payoffs depend on the ETF's final price on the valuation date (October 16, 2028): holders receive the capped maximum payment ($1,312.00 per $1,000) if the final price is ≥80.00% of the initial price, or suffer amplified losses below that threshold (buffer percentage 20.00%, buffer rate 125.00%), up to a total loss of principal. Payments are unsecured obligations of the Bank and subject to its credit risk. The initial estimated value was $964.53 per $1,000; the original issue price is 100% with underwriting commissions of 1.81%.
The Bank of Nova Scotia (BNS) is offering $14,168,000 of Contingent Income Auto-Callable Securities due May 18, 2029 linked to the common stock of Meta Platforms, Inc. Each note has a stated principal of $1,000.00 and pays a contingent quarterly coupon of $30.40 (equivalent to 12.16% per annum) if the underlying closing price on a determination date is at or above the downside threshold of $429.961 (70.00% of the initial share price). The initial share price and call threshold are $614.23 (100.00%); if a determination date meets the call threshold the notes auto-redeem earlier for principal plus payable coupons. If the final share price is below the downside threshold, maturity payment equals the stated principal multiplied by the share performance factor, exposing investors on a 1-to-1 basis to downside and potentially producing a recovery below 70.00% or zero. Payments are subject to BNS credit risk and the securities are not listed, may have limited liquidity, and had an estimated value on the pricing date of $969.60 per note, which is less than the issue price.
The Bank of Nova Scotia (BNS) is offering $13,217,000 of Contingent Income Auto-Callable Securities due May 18, 2028 linked to the worst performing of AAPL, AMZN and GOOGL. Each security has a $1,000 stated principal amount and a contingent quarterly coupon of $26.025 (equivalent to 10.41% per annum) payable only if all three underlying stocks meet 50.00% threshold levels on scheduled determination dates.

All payments are subject to BNS credit risk and the securities are not listed on any exchange.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering Autocallable Contingent Coupon Trigger Notes linked to NVIDIA Corporation. The offering totals $12,139,000 in aggregate principal, with a $1,000 principal amount per note. Trade date was May 15, 2026 and maturity is June 18, 2027. The initial price of the reference asset was $225.32.
Notes pay a monthly contingent coupon of $10.209 per $1,000 if the closing price on an observation date is >= the coupon barrier (60.00% of the initial price). Notes are automatically called on a call observation date (Nov 2026–May 2027) if the closing price is >= the initial price; an automatic call pays principal plus the contingent coupon. If not called and the final price is <60.00% of the initial price, holders receive a share delivery amount equal to $1,000 / $225.32 shares (cash for fractional shares) and will likely incur a substantial loss. The initial estimated value per $1,000 was $965.65, below the original issue price.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering $19,575,000 of Digital Notes linked to the EURO STOXX 50® Index due October 19, 2027.

If the final level is equal to or above 85.00% of the initial level (initial level 5,827.76), investors receive the capped payment of $1,117.50 per $1,000.
