The Maturity Payment will be determined as follows: (i) If the Closing Price is equal to or above the AutoCall Level on any Valuation Date, the Notes will be automatically called by the Bank and a Holder will receive a Maturity Payment equal to the Principal Amount plus the applicable Variable Return on the applicable Call Date or Maturity Date, calculated using the following formula: Principal Amount + Variable Return (ii) (iii) If the Notes are not automatically called by the Bank and the is equal to or above the Barrier Level on the Final Valuation Date, there will be no Variable Return payable on the Notes and a Holder will receive a Maturity Payment equal to the Principal Amount on the Maturity Date.

Scenario 1: Notes Automatically Called before Maturity HOW DO THE NOTES WORK? The following hypothetical examples demonstrate how the Maturity Payment will be calculated and determined under four different scenarios. In each scenario below, it has been assumed that an investor purchased and continues to hold $10,000.00 worth of Notes (or 100 Notes). The hypothetical Closing Prices of the used in these examples are for illustrative purposes only and should not be construed in any way as estimates or forecasts of the future price performance of the or the Notes. All hypothetical examples assume that no events described under Special Circumstances in the Pricing Supplement have occurred during the term. Example 1: Closing Price Above AutoCall Level Automatically Called = $14.00 Barrier Level = $9.80 (70% of the ) Closing Price on 1 st Call Valuation Date = $7.00 Closing Price on 2 nd Call Valuation Date = $14.70 Principal + 18.00% In this hypothetical scenario, the Closing Price of the is above the AutoCall Level on the 2 nd Call Valuation Date, thus triggering the Notes to be automatically called by the Bank on that day. A Holder will receive the Principal Amount plus a Variable Return on the 2 nd Call Date. Variable Return = Principal Amount x (Fixed Return + Excess Return) Fixed Return on second Valuation Date = 18.00% The Excess Return will be zero as the ETF Return of 5.00% is less than the Fixed Return of 18.00% for this Call Valuation Date, so the Variable Return = $18.00 Maturity Payment = Principal Amount + Variable Return = $100.00 + $18.00 = $118.00 per Note. Assuming a principal investment of $10,000.00 (or 100 Notes), a Holder will receive a Maturity Payment of $11,800.00 on the 2 nd Call Date (or an annualized return of 8.59%). Scenario 2: Positive Return at Maturity Example 2: Above AutoCall Level Principal + 27.40% = $14.00 Barrier Level = $9.80 (70% of the ) Closing Price on 1st Call Valuation Date = $13.58 Closing Price on 2nd Call Valuation Date = $7.00 Closing Price on Final Valuation Date = $18.90 In this hypothetical scenario, the Notes are not automatically called during the term but the is above the AutoCall Level on the Final Valuation Date. A Holder will receive a Maturity Payment equal to the Principal Amount plus a Variable Return on the Maturity Date. Variable Return = Principal Amount x (Fixed Return + Excess Return) Fixed Return on Final Valuation Date = 27.00% An ETF Return of 35.00% is higher than the Fixed Return on the Final Valuation Date: Excess Return = (ETF Return Fixed Return) x 5.00% = (35.00% - 27.00%) x 5.00% = 0.40% Variable Return = $100.00 x (27.00% + 0.40%) = $27.40 Maturity Payment = Principal Amount + Variable Return = $100.00 + $27.40 = $127.40 per Note. Assuming a principal investment of $10,000.00 (or 100 Notes), a Holder will receive a Maturity Payment of $12,740.00 on the Maturity Date (or an annualized return of 8.39%). 3

Scenario 3: Contingent Protection at Maturity Example 3: Above Barrier Level Principal = $14.00 Barrier Level = $9.80 (70% of the ) Closing Price on 1st Call Valuation Date = $11.48 Closing Price on 2nd Call Valuation Date = $10.92 Closing Price on Final Valuation Date = $11.90 In this hypothetical scenario, the is below the AutoCall Level on the Final Valuation Date, so no Variable Return will be payable on the Notes. Since the Final Price is above the Barrier Level on the Final Valuation Date, a Holder will receive a Maturity Payment equal to the Principal Amount on the Maturity Date. Variable Return =$0.00 Closing Price on Final Valuation Date = $11.90 (or an ETF Return of -15.00%) Maturity Payment = Principal Amount = $100.00 per Note. Assuming a principal investment of $10,000.00 (or 100 Notes), a Holder will receive a Maturity Payment of $10,000.00 on the Maturity Date (or an annualized return of 0.00%). Scenario 4: Principal Loss at Maturity Example 4: Below Barrier Level = $14.00 Barrier Level = $9.80 (70% of the ) Closing Price on 1st Call Valuation Date = $8.26 Closing Price on 2nd Call Valuation Date = $9.80 Closing Price on Final Valuation Date = $8.40 Principal Loss of principal In this hypothetical scenario, the is below the Barrier Level on the Final Valuation Date, so there will be no Variable Return payable on the Notes and a Holder will receive less than their principal investment in the Notes. Variable Return = $0.00 Closing Price on Final Valuation Date = $8.40 (or an ETF Return of -40.00%) Maturity Payment = Principal Amount + (Principal Amount x ETF Return) = $100.00 + ($100.00 x -40%) = $60.00 per Note. Assuming a principal investment of $10,000.00 (or 100 Notes), a Holder will receive a Maturity Payment of $6,000.00 on the Maturity Date (equal to a 40% loss on the $10,000.00 principal investment or an annualized loss of -15.63%). The above examples show how the ETF Return and Maturity Payment would be calculated based on certain hypothetical values and assumptions set out above. These examples are for illustrative purposes only and should not be construed as an estimate or forecast of the performance of the or the return that a Holder might realize on the Notes. 4
