The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering senior equity-linked notes linked to the lowest performing stock among Broadcom, Alphabet Class A and Netflix, with a face amount of $1,000 per security. The notes are auto-callable after approximately one year for a call premium of at least 41.35% and mature in 2029. If not called, payoff depends solely on the lowest performing underlying: 300% upside participation on gains, a capped 50% positive return on modest declines (absolute value feature), and full downside below the 50% threshold, potentially resulting in losses exceeding 50% of face amount. All payments are subject to The Bank of Nova Scotia credit risk and the securities pay no periodic interest or dividends.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering Enhanced Trigger Jump Securities with Auto-Callable Feature due on or about May 4, 2028. Each note has a stated principal amount of $1,000.00 and pays no interest. The securities auto‑redeem on specified determination dates for fixed early redemption payments (each corresponding to a 48.12% per annum return) if the closing prices of all underlying stocks meet or exceed their initial share prices. If not redeemed, maturity pays $1,962.40 when all final share prices meet trigger prices (each trigger = 60% of initial share price). If any underlying final share price is below its trigger, the maturity payment equals $1,000 plus the underlying return of the worst performing underlying stock, exposing investors to a potential loss of up to 100% of principal. Payments depend on BNS creditworthiness and the securities are not listed.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering Buffered Index-Linked Notes linked to the S&P 500® Index with a $1,000 principal amount per note and an expected maturity of September 2, 2027. The trade date is expected to be May 29, 2026 and original issue price is 100% of principal.
Key economics: a 10.00% buffer (buffer level = 90.00% of the initial level) protects losses up to that threshold; beyond the buffer you lose 1% for each 1% decline and may lose up to 90.00% of principal. The maximum upside payment amount is expected to be at least $1,130.00 per $1,000 principal amount (a cap of at least 13.00%). The initial estimated value range at pricing is $925.00 to $965.00 per $1,000, which is below the original issue price.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering Capped Buffered Enhanced Participation Notes linked to the Russell 2000® Index. The notes provide 150.00% participation in positive index returns subject to a maximum payment amount expected to be at least $1,215.00 per $1,000. A 10.00% buffer protects principal at maturity only; declines beyond 10.00% expose holders to losses, and investors may lose up to 90.00% of principal. The trade date is expected to be May 28, 2026, the valuation date is expected to be February 28, 2028 and the expected maturity is March 2, 2028. The original issue price is 100% and the Bank’s initial estimated value range at pricing is expected to be between $925.00 and $965.00 per $1,000.
The Bank of Nova Scotia is offering Trigger Autocallable GEARS linked to an unequally weighted basket of five equity indices with a term to April 30, 2031. The offering totals $13,083,060 at $10.00 per Security and includes an automatic call on May 5, 2027 if the underlying basket closing level is at or above the autocall barrier (100% of the initial basket level).
If not called, maturity payouts depend on the basket return, an upside gearing of 1.75, a call return rate of 14.00, and a downside threshold of 75.00 of the initial basket level; negative outcomes can result in partial or total loss of principal and all payments remain subject to BNS credit risk.

The Notes can be auto‑called on scheduled Call Observation Dates if Eli Lilly's Closing Value is at or above the Initial Value; otherwise contingent coupons may pay on specified observation dates only if a barrier test is met. At maturity holders receive $1,000 if the Final Value is at or above the 55.00% Barrier Value, or a Physical Delivery Amount of shares (or cash in lieu) if below the Barrier Value, exposing holders to up to 100% principal loss. The initial estimated value range is $931.97–$961.97 per $1,000 Note; underwriting discount up to 1.75%. Payments are subject to the Bank’s credit risk.

Each Note has a $1,000 Principal Amount, an Original Issue Price of 100%, an expected Trade Date of April 30, 2026, and a Maturity Date of May 4, 2028. Payments depend on Call and Contingent Coupon observation values versus the Initial Value and a Barrier Value equal to 50% of the Initial Value. Contingent Coupons may be payable (at least $34.375 per Note, equal to at least 13.75% per annum) on specified observation dates if the Reference Asset meets the Contingent Coupon Barrier Value; unpaid coupons may carry forward. If not called and the Final Value is below the Barrier Value, holders receive a Physical Delivery Amount of Constellation shares and may lose up to 100% of principal. The Notes are unsecured obligations of the Bank and are subject to the Bank’s credit risk and limited liquidity.
