Interest will be paid monthly on each Contingent Coupon Payment Date, subject to the automatic redemption feature. Please see page 2 of this term sheet for the table of Contingent Coupon Payment Dates and Coupon Observation Dates. Contingent Coupons: The third scheduled trading day prior to the applicable Contingent Coupon Payment Date , subject to postponement. Coupon Observation Dates: Interest will be paid on the 7th day of each month (or, if such day is not a business day, the next following business day), beginning on August 07, 2023, and until the Maturity Date, subject to the automatic redemption feature. Contingent Coupon Payment Dates: If, on any Call Observation Date, the Basket Closing Level is greater than its Call Level, the notes will be automatically redeemed. Automatic Redemption: Beginning on January 03, 2024, each Coupon Observation Date. Call Observation Dates: If the notes are automatically redeemed, the Contingent Coupon Payment Date immediately following the relevant Call Observation Date. Call Settlement Dates: The Basket Closing Level is less than its Trigger Level on the Valuation Date . Trigger Event: If the notes are automatically redeemed, then, on the applicable Call Settlement Date, for each $1,000 principal amount, investors will receive $1,000 plus the Contingent Coupon otherwise due. Payment Upon Automatic Redemption : If the notes are not automatically redeemed, the payment at maturity for the notes is based on the performance of the Basket. You will receive $1,000 for each $1,000 in principal amount of the note, unless a Trigger Event has occurred. If a Trigger Event has occurred, you will receive at maturity, for each $1,000 in principal amount of your notes, a cash amount equal to: $1,000 + [$1,000 x Percentage Change] This amount will be less than the principal amount of your notes, and may be zero. Payment at Maturity (if held to the Maturity Date): INVESTMENT OBJECTIVE The objective of the notes is to provide clients the potential to earn periodic income, subject to an automatic redemption, while offering limited downside protection against a slight to moderate decline in the Basket over the term of the notes. As such, the notes may be suitable for investors with a moderately bullish view of the Basket over the term of the notes. The performance of the notes may not be consistent with the investment objective.

3 The risks summarized below are some of the most important factors to be considered prior to any purchase of the notes. Investors are urged to read all the risk factors related to the notes in the preliminary pricing supplement and the product supplement to which this term sheet relates before making an investment decision. • You could lose up to the entire principal amount of your notes, and your potential return on the notes is limited to any Contingent Coupon payments, if any. If the notes are not automatically redeemed and if a Trigger Event has occurred, and if the Final Level of the Basket is less than its Initial Level, you will lose 1% of the principal amount for each 1% that the Final Level of the Baske t is less than its Initial Level. • You may not receive any Contingent Coupons with respect to your notes. • Your notes are subject to automatic early redemption. If the notes are so redeemed, you will not receive any additional Contingent Coupons, and you may not be able to invest the proceeds in a security with a similar return. • Your return on the notes is limited to the Contingent Coupons, if any, regardless of any appreciation of any Basket Components. • Changes in the level of one or more Basket Components may be offset by changes in the level of one or more other Basket Components. • A higher Contingent Interest Rate or lower Trigger Level or Coupon Barrier Level may reflect greater expected volatility of the Basket Components, and greater expected volatility generally indicates an increased risk of loss at maturity. • Your return on the notes may be lower than the return on a conventional debt security of comparable maturity. • The notes are unsecured debt obligations of the Issuer and your investment is subject to the credit risk of the Issuer. • Our and our affiliates’ activities may conflict with your interests and may also adversely affect the value of the notes. • Our initial estimated value of the notes will be lower than the price to public, does not represent any future value of the notes, and may also differ from the estimated value of any other party. • The terms of the notes are not determined by reference to the credit spreads for our conventional fixed - rate debt. • The inclusion of the hedging profits, if any, in the initial price to public of the notes, as well as our hedging costs, is likely to adversely affect the price at which you can sell your notes. • You will not have any shareholder rights and will have no right to receive any shares of the Basket Components at maturity. • We have no affiliation with the sponsor of any Basket Component, and will not be responsible for their actions. • Changes that affect each Basket Component will affect the market value of the notes, whether the notes will be automatically called, and the amount you will receive at maturity. Adjustments to a Basket Component could adversely affect the notes. The sponsor of a Basket Component may make adjustments, discontinue or suspend calculations or publication of that Basket Component, or discontinue of suspend maintenance of that Basket Component at any time. • The notes will not be listed on any securities exchange. BMOCM may offer to purchase the notes in the secondary market, but is not required to do so. Even if there is a secondary market, it may not provide enough liquidity to allow you to trade or sell the notes easily. • We and our affiliates may engage in hedging and trading activities related to the notes that could adversely affect our payment to you at maturity. Selected Risk Considerations:
4 Hypothetical Calculations for the Payment at Maturity: Examples of the Hypothetical Payment at Maturity for a $1,000 Investment in the notes The following examples illustrate the hypothetical payments on a note at maturity, assuming that the notes are not automatically called. The hypothetical payments are based on a $1,000 investment in the notes, a hypothetical Initial Level o f 100.00, a hypothetical Trigger Level of 70.00 (70.00% of the hypothetical Initial Level), a hypothetical Call Level of 100 (100% of its hypothetical Initial Level), the Contingent Interest Rate of 0.750 % per month , a range of hypothetical Final Levels of the Basket and the effect on the payment at maturity if (i) a Trigger Event occurs or (ii) if a Trigger Event does not occur. The hypothetical examples shown below are intended to help you understand the terms of the notes. If the notes are not automatically called, the actual cash amount that you will receive at maturity will depend upon whether the Basket Closing Level is below its Trigger Level on the Valuation Date . If the notes are automatically called prior to maturity, the hypothetical examples below will not be relevant, and you will receive on the applicable Call Settlement Date, for each $1,000 principal amount, the principal amount plus the applicable Contingent Coupon . These examples do not give effect to any U.S. federal tax payments or brokerage commissions that you may be required to pay in connection with your purchase of the notes. The Final Level of the Basket at maturity is $40, which is less than the Trigger Level and therefore a Trigger Event has occurred. In this case, for each $1,000 in principal amount of the notes , you will receive a payment of of $ 400 on the Valuation Date, resulting in a loss of 60% of your principal amount. Your loss of principal may be partially offset by Contingent Coupons, if any, received with respect to the notes. Example 1: The Final Level of the Basket at maturity is $90 and therefore a Trigger Event has not occurred. In this case, you will receive a payment equal to the principal amount of your notes. You will not receive any positive return on your investment other than any Contingent Coupons. Example 2: The Final Level of the Basket at maturity is $115, which is 15% greater than the Initial Level. In this case, you will receive a payment equal to the principal amount of your notes. You will not receive any positive return on your investment other than any Contingent Coupons. Example 3:
