Observation Dates: Three trading days prior to each scheduled Contingent Coupon Payment Date. Contingent Coupon Payment Dates: Interest, if payable, will be paid on the 27th day of each November, February, May, and August (or, if such day is not a business day, the next following business day), beginning on November 27, 2024 and ending on the Maturity Date, subject to the automatic redemption feature. Automatic Redemption: Beginning on February 24, 2025, if, on any Observation Date, the closing level of each Reference Asset is greater than its Call Level, the notes will be automatically redeemed. No further amounts will be owed to you under the Notes. Call Settlement Date: If the notes are automatically redeemed, the Contingent Coupon Payment Date immediately following the relevant Observation Date. Trigger Event: A Trigger Event will be deemed to occur if the Final Level of any Reference Asset is less than its Trigger Level on the Valuation Date. Payment Upon Automatic Redemption : If the notes are automatically redeemed, then, on the Call Settlement Date, investors will receive their principal amount plus the Contingent Coupon otherwise due. 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 Reference Assets over the term of the notes. As such, the notes may be suitable for investors with a moderately bullish view of the Reference Assets over the term of the notes. The performance of the notes may not be consistent with the investment objective. This term sheet, which gives a brief summary of the terms of the notes, relates to, and should be read in conjunction with, t he pricing supplement dated August 9, 2024, the Product Supplement dated July 22, 2022, the Prospectus Supplement dated May 26, 2022, and to the Prospectus dated May 26, 2022.

2 Payment at Maturity (if held to the Maturity Date): If the notes are not automatically redeemed, the payment at maturity for the notes is based on the performance of the Reference Assets. You will receive $1,000 for each $1,000 in principal amount of the notes, unless the Final Level of any Reference Asset is less than its Trigger Level. If the Final Level of any Reference Asset is less than its Trigger Level , 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 of the Least Performing Reference Asset)] This amount will be less than the principal amount of your notes, and may be zero. Least Performing Reference Asset: The Reference Asset that has the lowest Percentage Change. Percentage Change: The Percentage Change of each Reference Asset, expressed as a percentage, is calculated using the following formula: (Final Level – Initial Level) / Initial Level Initial Level: With respect to each Reference Asset, the closing level of such Reference Asset on the Pricing Date. Final Level: With respect to each Reference Asset, the closing level of such Reference Asset on the Valuation Date. Principal at Risk: Investors in these notes could lose all or a substantial portion of their investment at maturity if there has been a decline in the market value of any Reference Asset and the Final Level of any Reference Asset is less than its Trigger Level. We urge you to carefully review the documents described in “Additional Information” below, including the risk factors set forth and incorporated by reference therein, prior to making an investment decision. Secondary Market: The notes will not be listed on any securities exchange. Although not obligated to do so, BMO Capital Markets Corp. (or one of its affiliates), plans to maintain a secondary market in the notes after the Settlement Date. Proceeds from a sale of notes prior to maturity may be less than the principal amount initially invested.

3 Selected Risk Considerations: 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 pricing supplement and the product supplement to which this term sheet relates. • 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 with respect to any Reference Asset, and if the Final Level of any Reference Asset is less than its Initial Level, you will lose 1% of the principal amount for each 1% that the Final Level of the Least Performing Reference Asset 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 increase in the level of any Reference Asset. • Whether you receive any Contingent Coupons and your payment at maturity may be determined solely by reference to the least performing Reference Asset, even if any other Reference Assets perform better. • The payments on the notes will be determined by reference to each Reference Asset individually, not to a basket, and the payments on the notes will be based on the performance of the least performing Reference Asset. • A higher Contingent Interest Rate or lower Trigger Levels or Coupon Barrier Levels may reflect greater expected volatility of the Reference Assets, 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 securities represented by the Reference Assets at maturity. • We have no affiliation with the sponsor of any Reference Asset, and will not be responsible for their actions. • Changes that affect each Reference Asset 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 any Reference Asset could adversely affect the notes. The sponsor of any Reference Asset may make adjustments, discontinue or suspend calculations or publication of that Reference Asset, or discontinue of suspend maintenance of that Reference Asset 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 are 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. • An investment in the notes is subject to risks associated in investing in stocks with a small market capitalization.

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 for each Reference Asset, a hypothetical Trigger Level of 75.00 for each Reference Asset (75% of its hypothetical Initial Level), a hypothetical Call Level of 100 for each Reference Asset (100% of its hypothetical Initial Level), the Conti nge nt Interest Rate of 2.313 % per quarter , a range of hypothetical Final Levels of the Least Performing Reference Asset and the effect on the payment at maturity if (i) a Trigger Event occurs with respect to any Reference Asset or (ii) if a Trigger Event does not occur with respect to any Reference Asset. 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 closing level of any Reference Asset 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.
