**US$2,200,000** 

 **Senior Medium-Term Notes, Series K**

 **Autocallable Barrier Notes with Contingent Coupons due July 13, 2027**

 **Linked to the shares of iShares<sup>®</sup> 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF**

· The notes are designed for investors who are seeking quarterly contingent periodic interest payments
(as described in more detail below), as well as a return of principal if the closing level of the shares of iShares<sup>®</sup> 20+ Year Treasury
Bond ETF (the "Reference Asset") on any quarterly Observation Date beginning in January 2026 is greater than 100% of its Initial
Level (the "Call Level"). Investors should be willing to have their notes automatically redeemed prior to maturity, be willing
to forego any potential to participate in the appreciation of the Reference Asset and be willing to lose some or all of their principal
at maturity.

· The notes will pay a Contingent Coupon on each Contingent Coupon Payment Date at the Contingent Interest
Rate of 2.25% per quarter (approximately 9.00% per annum) if the closing level of the Reference Asset on the applicable quarterly Observation
Date is greater than or equal to its Coupon Barrier Level. However, if the closing level of the Reference Asset is less than its Coupon
Barrier Level on an Observation Date, the notes will not pay the Contingent Coupon for that Observation Date.

· Beginning on January 08, 2026 , if on any Observation Date, the closing level of the Reference Asset
is greater than its Call Level, the notes will be automatically redeemed. On the following Contingent Coupon Payment Date (the "Call
Settlement Date"), investors will receive their principal amount plus the Contingent Coupon otherwise due. After the notes are redeemed,
investors will not receive any additional payments in respect of the notes.

· The notes do not guarantee any return of principal at maturity. Instead, if the notes are not automatically
redeemed, the payment at maturity will be based on the Final Level of the Reference Asset and whether the Final Level of that Reference
Asset has declined from its Initial Level to below its Trigger Level on the Valuation Date (a "Trigger Event"), as described
below.

· If the notes are not automatically redeemed and a Trigger Event has occurred, you will receive a delivery
of shares of the Reference Asset (the "Physical Delivery Amount") or, at our election, the cash equivalent (calculated as
described below, the "Cash Delivery Amount"), which will be worth less than the principal amount. Specifically, the value
of any Physical Delivery Amount or Cash Delivery Amount that you receive will decrease 1% for each 1% decrease in the level of the Reference
Asset from its Initial Level to its Final Level. Any fractional shares included in the Physical Delivery Amount will be paid in cash.

· Investing in the notes is not equivalent to a direct investment in the Reference Asset.

· The notes will not be listed on any securities exchange.

· All payments on the notes are subject to the credit risk of Bank of Montreal.

· The notes will be issued in minimum denominations of $1,000 and integral multiples of $1,000.

· Our subsidiary, BMO Capital Markets Corp. ("BMOCM"), is the agent for this offering. See
"Supplemental Plan of Distribution (Conflicts of Interest)" below.

· The notes will not be subject to conversion into our common shares or the common shares of any of our
affiliates under subsection 39.2(2.3) of the Canada Deposit Insurance Corporation Act (the "CDIC Act").

<sup>1</sup> The total "Agent's Commission" and "Proceeds to Bank of Montreal" specified above reflect the aggregate amounts at the time Bank of Montreal established its hedge positions on or prior to the Pricing Date, which may have been variable and fluctuated depending on market conditions at such times. Certain dealers who purchased the notes for sale to certain fee-based advisory accounts may have foregone some or all of their selling concessions, fees or commissions. The public offering price for investors purchasing the notes in these accounts was between $981.50 and $1,000 per $1,000 in principal amount. In addition, the "Agent's Commission" also includes a structuring fee of up to 0.10% and a selling commission of up to 1.75% of the principal amount per note.

\* Rounded to two decimal places.

***Investing in the notes involves risks, including those described in the "Selected Risk Considerations" section beginning on page P-5 hereof, the "Additional Risk Factors Relating to the Notes" section beginning on page PS-6 of the product supplement, and the "Risk Factors" section beginning on page S-1 of the prospectus supplement and on page 8 of the prospectus.***

**Selected Risk Considerations**

An investment in the notes involves significant risks. Investing in the notes is not equivalent to investing directly in the Reference Asset. These risks are explained in more detail in the "Additional Risk Factors Relating to the Notes" section of the product supplement.

**Risks Related to the Structure or Features of the Notes**

· **Your investment in the notes may result in a loss.** — The notes do not guarantee any return of principal. If the notes
are not automatically redeemed, the payment at maturity will be based on the Final Level and whether a Trigger Event has occurred. If
the Final Level is less than its Trigger Level, a Trigger Event will occur, and you will lose 1% of the principal amount for each 1% that
the Final Level is less than the Initial Level. In such a case, you will receive at maturity a delivery of shares of the Reference Asset,
or at our election the cash equivalent, which will be worth less than the principal amount of the notes and may be zero. **Accordingly, you could lose your entire investment in the notes.** 

· **You may not receive any Contingent Coupons with respect to your notes.** — We will not necessarily make periodic interest
payments on the notes. If the closing level of the Reference Asset on an Observation Date is less than its Coupon Barrier Level, we will
not pay you the Contingent Coupon applicable to that Observation Date. If the closing level of the Reference Asset is less than its Coupon
Barrier Level on each of the Observation Dates, we will not pay you any Contingent Coupons during the term of the notes, and you will
not receive a positive return on the notes. Generally, this non-payment of any Contingent Coupons will coincide with a greater risk of
principal loss on your notes.

· **Your notes are subject to automatic early redemption.** — We will redeem the notes if the closing level of the Reference
Asset on any Observation Date is greater than its Call Level. Following an automatic redemption, you will not receive any additional Contingent
Coupons and may not be able to reinvest your proceeds in an investment with returns that are comparable to the notes. Furthermore, to
the extent you are able to reinvest such proceeds in an investment with a comparable return for a similar level of risk, you may incur
transaction costs such as dealer discounts and hedging costs built into the price of the new notes.

· **Your return on the notes is limited to the Contingent Coupons, if any, regardless of any appreciation in the value of the Reference Asset.** — You will not receive a payment at maturity with a value greater than your principal amount plus the final Contingent
Coupon, if payable. In addition, if the notes are automatically redeemed, you will not receive a payment greater than the principal amount
plus the applicable Contingent Coupon, even if the Final Level exceeds the Call Level by a substantial amount. Accordingly, your maximum
return on the applicable notes is limited to the potential return represented by the Contingent Coupons.

· **Any decline in the closing level of the Reference Asset from the Valuation Date to the Maturity Date will reduce the value of the Physical Delivery Amount.** — If we deliver the Physical Delivery Amount on the Maturity Date instead of paying the Cash Delivery
Amount, the number of shares deliverable will be determined on the Valuation Date. The market value of the Physical Delivery Amount on
the Maturity Date may be less than the cash equivalent of such shares determined on the Valuation Date due to any decline in the closing
level of the Reference Asset during the period between the Valuation Date and the Maturity Date. Conversely, if we pay the Cash Delivery
Amount instead of delivering the Physical Delivery Amount on the Maturity Date, the Cash Delivery Amount will be determined on the Valuation
Date and the payment that you receive on the Maturity Date may be less than the market value of such shares that you would have received
had we instead delivered such shares due to fluctuations in their market value during the period between the Valuation Date and the Maturity
Date.

· **Your return on the notes may be lower than the return on a conventional debt security of comparable maturity.** — The
return that you will receive on your notes, which could be negative, may be less than the return you could earn on other investments.
The notes do not provide for fixed interest payments and you may not receive any Contingent Coupons over the term of the notes. Even if
you do receive one or more Contingent Coupons and your return on the notes is positive, your return may be less than the return you would
earn if you bought a conventional senior interest bearing debt security of ours with the same maturity or if you invested directly in
the Reference Asset. Your investment may not reflect the full opportunity cost to you when you take into account factors that affect the
time value of money.

· **A higher Contingent Interest Rate or lower Trigger Level or Coupon Barrier Level may reflect greater expected volatility of the Reference Asset, and greater expected volatility generally indicates an increased risk of loss at maturity.** — The economic
terms for the notes, including the Contingent Interest Rate, Coupon Barrier Level and Trigger Level, are based, in part, on the expected
volatility of the Reference Asset at the time the terms of the notes are set. "Volatility" refers to the frequency and magnitude
of changes in the level of the Reference Asset. The greater the expected volatility of the Reference Asset as of the Pricing Date, the
greater the expectation is as of that date that the closing level of the Reference Asset could be less than its Coupon Barrier Level on
any Observation Date and that a Trigger Event could occur and, as a consequence, indicates an increased risk of not receiving a Contingent
Coupon and an increased risk of loss, respectively. All things being equal, this greater expected volatility will generally be reflected
in a higher Contingent Interest Rate than the yield payable on our conventional debt securities with a similar maturity or on otherwise
comparable securities, and/or lower Trigger Level and/or Coupon Barrier Level than those terms on otherwise comparable securities. Therefore,
a relatively higher Contingent Interest Rate may indicate an increased risk of loss. Further, a relatively lower Trigger Level and/or
Coupon Barrier may not necessarily indicate that the notes have a greater likelihood of a return of principal at maturity and/or paying
Contingent Coupons. You should be willing to accept the downside market risk of the Reference Asset and the potential to lose a significant
portion or all of your initial investment.

**Risks Related to the Reference Asset**

· **Owning the notes is not the same as owning shares of the Reference Asset or a security directly linked to the Reference Asset.** — The return on your notes will not reflect the return you would realize if you actually owned shares of the Reference Asset or
a security directly linked to the performance of the Reference Asset and held that investment for a similar period. Your notes may trade
quite differently from the Reference Asset. Changes in the level of the Reference Asset may not result in comparable changes in the market
value of your notes. Even if the level of the Reference Asset increases during the term of the notes, the market value of the notes prior
to maturity may not increase to the same extent. It is also possible for the market value of the notes to decrease while the level of
the Reference Asset increases. In addition, any dividends or other distributions paid on the Reference Asset will not be reflected in
the amount payable on the notes.

· **You will not have any shareholder rights and will have no right to receive any shares of the Reference Asset (or any company included in the Reference Asset) at maturity.** — Investing in your notes will not make you a holder of any shares of the Reference Asset
or any securities held by the Reference Asset. Neither you nor any other holder or owner of the notes will have any voting rights, any
right to receive dividends or other distributions, or any other rights with respect to the Reference Asset or such underlying securities.

· **No delivery of shares of the Reference Asset.** — The notes will be payable only in cash. You should not invest in the
notes if you seek to have the shares of the Reference Asset delivered to you at maturity.

· **Changes that affect the applicable Underlying Index will affect the market value of the notes and the amount you will receive at maturity.** — The policies of the applicable index sponsor concerning the calculation of the applicable Underlying Index, additions,
deletions or substitutions of the components of the applicable Underlying Index and the manner in which changes affecting those components,
such as stock dividends, reorganizations or mergers, may be reflected in the applicable Reference Asset and, therefore, could affect the
share price of the Reference Asset, the amounts payable on the notes, and the market value of the notes prior to maturity. The amount
payable on the notes and their market value could also be affected if the applicable index sponsor changes these policies, for example,
by changing the manner in which it calculates the applicable Underlying Index, or if the applicable index sponsor discontinues or suspends
the calculation or publication of the applicable Underlying Index.

· **We have no affiliation with the index sponsor of the applicable Underlying Index and will not be responsible for its actions.** — The sponsor of the applicable Underlying Index is not our affiliate and will not be involved in the offering of the notes in any
way. Consequently, we have no control over the actions of the index sponsor of the applicable Underlying Index, including any actions
of the type that would require the calculation agent to adjust the payment to you at maturity. The index sponsors have no obligation of
any sort with respect to the notes. Thus, the applicable index sponsor has no obligation to take your interests into consideration for
any reason, including in taking any actions that might affect the value of the notes. None of our proceeds from the issuance of the notes
will be delivered to the index sponsor of the applicable Underlying Index.

· **Adjustments to the Reference Asset could adversely affect the notes.** — The sponsor and advisor of the Reference Asset
is responsible for calculating and maintaining the Reference Asset. The sponsor and advisor of the Reference Asset can add, delete or
substitute the stocks comprising the Reference Asset or make other methodological changes that could change the share price of the Reference
Asset at any time. If one or more of these events occurs, the calculation of the amount payable at maturity may be adjusted to reflect
such event or events. Consequently, any of these actions could adversely affect the amount payable at maturity and/or the market value
of the notes.

· **We and our affiliates do not have any affiliation with the applicable investment advisor or the Reference Asset Issuer and are not responsible for their public disclosure of information.** — The investment advisor of the Reference Asset advises the issuer
of the Reference Asset (the "Reference Asset Issuer") on various matters, including matters relating to the policies, maintenance
and calculation of the Reference Asset. We and our affiliates are not affiliated with the applicable investment advisor or the Reference
Asset Issuer in any way and have no ability to control or predict its actions, including any errors in or discontinuance of disclosure
regarding the methods or policies relating to the Reference Asset. Neither the applicable investment advisor nor the Reference Asset Issuer
is involved in the offerings of the notes in any way and has no obligation to consider your interests as an owner of the notes in taking
any actions relating to the Reference Asset that might affect the value of the notes. Neither we nor any of our affiliates has independently
verified the adequacy or accuracy of the information about the applicable investment advisor or the Reference Asset contained in any public
disclosure of information. You, as an investor in the notes, should make your own investigation into the Reference Asset Issuer.

· **The correlation between the performance of the Reference Asset and the performance of the applicable Underlying Index may be imperfect.** — The performance of the Reference Asset is linked principally to the performance of the applicable Underlying Index. However, because
of the potential discrepancies identified in more detail in the product supplement, the return on the Reference Asset may correlate imperfectly
with the return on the applicable Underlying Index.

· **The Reference Asset is subject to management risks.** — The Reference Asset is subject to management risk, which is the
risk that the applicable investment advisor's investment strategy, the implementation of which is subject to a number of constraints,
may not produce the intended results. For example, the applicable investment advisor may invest a portion of the Reference Asset Issuer's
assets in securities not included in the relevant industry or sector but which the applicable investment advisor believes will help the
Reference Asset track the relevant industry or sector.

· **You must rely on your own evaluation of the merits of an investment linked to the Reference Asset.** — In the ordinary
course of their businesses, our affiliates from time to time may express views on expected movements in the prices of the Reference Asset
or the prices of the securities held by the Reference Asset. One or more of our affiliates have published, and in the future may publish,
research reports that express views on the Reference Asset or these securities. However, these views are subject to change from time to
time. Moreover, other professionals who deal in the markets relating to the Reference Asset at any time may have significantly different
views from those of our affiliates. You are encouraged to derive information concerning the Reference Asset from multiple sources, and
you should not rely on the views expressed by our affiliates. Neither the offering of the notes nor any views which our affiliates from time to time may express in the ordinary course of their businesses
constitutes a recommendation as to the merits of an investment in the notes.

**Risks Relating to the iShares<sup>®</sup> 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF**

· **An investment in the notes involves different considerations than a direct investment in the** **iShares<sup>®</sup> 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF .** The notes provide exposure to the
price performance of the iShares<sup>®</sup> 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF ("TLT"), not its yield performance. The "price performance"
of the TLT will depend solely on changes in the value of the bonds held by the TLT (as reflected in the TLT's market price) and
will exclude all distributions by the TLT of any interest payments on those bonds. By contrast, the overall performance of a direct investment
in the TLT would reflect changes in the value of the bonds held by the TLT as well as interest payments on those bonds. We refer to the
overall performance of a direct investment in the TLT, taking into account changes in bond values as well as interest payments, as its
"yield performance."

In stable market conditions (*i.e.*, conditions with stable interest rates and credit risks, resulting in stable bond values), the overall return on a direct investment in the TLT would be expected to be attributable primarily, if not solely, to distributions by the TLT of interest payments on its underlying bonds. In these conditions, the yield performance of the TLT would be positive, but its price performance, which is the performance relevant to the securities, would be roughly zero. The price performance of the TLT would be expected to be positive only if market conditions that affect bond values change in a direction that is favorable to bond values. The most significant market conditions affecting bond values are prevailing market interest rates and credit risk. In general, bond values rise when prevailing market interest rates fall and/or when perceptions of creditworthiness improve. Therefore, in order for TLT to have positive price performance, and in order for the securities to produce a positive return, prevailing market interest rates would need to fall and/or the perceived creditworthiness of the United States would need to improve over the term of the securities (in each case without a countervailing unfavorable movement by any other relevant factor). If neither of these circumstances comes to pass, the TLT is unlikely to have positive price performance, and if the opposite circumstances occur (*i.e.*, if prevailing market interest rates rise and/or the perceived creditworthiness of the United States deteriorates), the price performance of the TLT is likely to be negative. In any such case, the price performance of the TLT may be zero or negative even though the yield performance of the TLT over the same period is positive.

· **The notes are subject to significant risks associated with fixed-income securities, including interest rate-related risks and credit risks.** — The iShares<sup>®</sup> 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF is a bond ETF that attempts to track the performance of an index composed
of fixed income securities. Investing in the notes linked indirectly to the iShares<sup>®</sup> 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF differs significantly
from investing directly in bonds to be held to maturity as the values of the iShares<sup>®</sup> 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF changes, at times
significantly, during each trading day based upon the current market prices of its underlying bonds. The market prices of these bonds
are volatile and significantly influenced by a number of factors, particularly the yields on these bonds as compared to current market
interest rates and the actual or perceived credit quality of the issuer of these bonds.

In general, fixed-income securities are significantly affected by changes in current market interest rates. As interest rates rise, the price of fixed-income securities, including those underlying the iShares<sup>®</sup> 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF, is likely to decrease. Securities with longer durations tend to be more sensitive to interest rate changes, usually making them more volatile than securities with shorter durations. The eligibility criteria for the securities included in the indices that underlie the iShares<sup>®</sup> 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF, which each mandate that each security must have a minimum term remaining to maturity (ranging from one year to 20 years) for continued eligibility, means that, at any time, only longer-term securities underlie the iShares<sup>®</sup> 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF, which thereby increases the risk of price volatility in the underlying securities and, consequently, the volatility in the value of the Underlying Index. As a result, rising interest rates may cause the value of the bonds underlying the iShares<sup>®</sup> 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF, the iShares<sup>®</sup> 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF and the Underlying Index to decline, possibly significantly.

Interest rates are subject to volatility due to a variety of factors, including:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· sentiment regarding underlying strength in the U.S. and global economies;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· expectations regarding the level of price inflation;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· sentiment regarding credit quality in the U.S. and global credit markets;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· central bank policies regarding interest rates; and

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;· the performance of U.S. and foreign capital markets.

The prices of the underlying bonds are also significantly influenced by the creditworthiness of the issuers of the bonds (i.e., the U.S. government). The bonds underlying the iShares<sup>®</sup> 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF may have their credit ratings downgraded, or have their credit spreads widen significantly. Following a ratings downgrade or the widening of credit spreads, some or all of the underlying bonds may suffer significant and rapid price declines.

· **The notes are subject to concentration risks.** — The iShares<sup><sup>®</sup></sup> 20+
Year Treasury Bond ETF invests in U.S. Treasury bonds that are all obligations of the United States with a similar remaining time to maturity.
As a result, the iShares<sup><sup>®</sup></sup> 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF is concentrated in the performance of bonds issued by a single
issuer and having the same general tenor and terms. Although your investment in the notes will not result in the ownership or other direct
interest in the U.S. Treasury bonds held by the iShares<sup><sup>®</sup></sup> 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF, the return on your investment
in the notes will be subject to certain risks similar to those associated with direct investment in a U.S. Treasury bonds. This increases
the risk that any downgrade of the credit ratings of the U.S. government from its current ratings, any increase in risk that the U.S.
Treasury may default on its obligations by the market (whether for credit or legislative process reasons) or any other market events that
create a decrease in demand for U.S. Treasury bonds would significantly adversely affect the iShares<sup><sup>®</sup></sup> 20+ Year Treasury
Bond ETF and may adversely affect the value of the notes. In addition, to the extent that any such decrease in demand is more concentrated
in particular U.S. Treasury bond maturities, the iShares<sup><sup>®</sup></sup> 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF could be severely affected, which
may adversely affect the value of the notes .

**General Risk Factors**

· **Your investment is subject to the credit risk of Bank of Montreal.** — Our credit ratings and credit spreads may adversely
affect the market value of the notes. Investors are dependent on our ability to pay any amounts due on the notes, and therefore investors
are subject to our credit risk and to changes in the market's view of our creditworthiness. Any decline in our credit ratings or
increase in the credit spreads charged by the market for taking our credit risk is likely to adversely affect the value of the notes.

· **Potential conflicts.** — We and our affiliates play a variety of roles in connection with the issuance of the notes, including
acting as calculation agent. In performing these duties, the economic interests of the calculation agent and other affiliates of ours
are potentially adverse to your interests as an investor in the notes. We or one or more of our affiliates may also engage in trading
of shares of the Reference Asset or the securities held by the Reference Asset on a regular basis as part of our general broker-dealer
and other businesses, for proprietary accounts, for other accounts under management or to facilitate transactions for our customers. Any
of these activities could adversely affect the level of the Reference Asset and, therefore, the market value of, and the payments on,
the notes. We or one or more of our affiliates may also issue or underwrite other securities or financial or derivative instruments with
returns linked or related to changes in the performance of the Reference Asset. By introducing competing products into the marketplace
in this manner, we or one or more of our affiliates could adversely affect the market value of the notes.

· **Our initial estimated value of the notes is lower than the price to public.** — Our initial estimated value of the notes
is only an estimate, and is based on a number of factors. The price to public of the notes exceeds our initial estimated value, because
costs associated with offering, structuring and hedging the notes are included in the price to public, but are not included in the estimated
value. These costs include any underwriting discount and selling concessions, the profits that we and our affiliates expect to realize
for assuming the risks in hedging our obligations under the notes and the estimated cost of hedging these obligations.

· **Our initial estimated value does not represent any future value of the notes, and may also differ from the estimated value of any other party.** — Our initial estimated value of the notes as of the date hereof is derived using our internal pricing models.
This value is based on market conditions and other relevant factors, which include volatility of the Reference Asset, dividend rates and
interest rates. Different pricing models and assumptions could provide values for the notes that are greater than or less than our initial
estimated value. In addition, market conditions and other relevant factors after the Pricing Date are expected to change, possibly rapidly,
and our assumptions may prove to be incorrect. After the Pricing Date, the value of the notes could change dramatically due to changes
in market conditions, our creditworthiness, and the other factors set forth herein and in the product supplement. These changes are likely
to impact the price, if any, at which we or BMOCM would be willing to purchase the notes from you in any secondary market transactions.
Our initial estimated value does not represent a minimum price at which we or our affiliates would be willing to buy your notes in any
secondary market at any time.

· **The terms of the notes were not determined by reference to the credit spreads for our conventional fixed-rate debt.** —
To determine the terms of the notes, we used an internal funding rate that represents a discount from the credit spreads for our conventional
fixed-rate debt. As a result, the terms of the notes are less favorable to you than if we had used a higher funding rate.

· **Certain costs are likely to adversely affect the value of the notes.** — Absent any changes in market conditions, any secondary
market prices of the notes will likely be lower than the price to public. This is because any secondary market prices will likely take
into account our then-current market credit spreads, and because any secondary market prices are likely to exclude all or a portion of
any underwriting discount and selling concessions, and the hedging profits and estimated hedging costs that are included in the price
to public of the notes and that may be reflected on your account statements. In addition, any such price is also likely to reflect a discount
to account for costs associated with establishing or unwinding any related hedge transaction, such as dealer discounts, mark-ups and other
transaction costs. As a result, the price, if any, at which BMOCM or any other party may be willing to purchase the notes from you in
secondary market transactions, if at all, will likely be lower than the price to public. Any sale that you make prior to the Maturity
Date could result in a substantial loss to you.

· **Lack of liquidity.** — 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. Because other dealers are not likely to make a secondary market for the notes, the price at which
you may be able to trade the notes is likely to depend on the price, if any, at which BMOCM is willing to buy the notes.

· **Hedging and trading activities.** — We or any of our affiliates have carried out or may carry out hedging activities related
to the notes, including purchasing or selling shares of the Reference Asset or securities held by the Reference Asset, futures or options
relating to the Reference Asset or securities held by the Reference Asset or other derivative instruments with returns linked or related
to changes in the performance on the Reference Asset or securities held by the Reference Asset. We or our affiliates may also trade in
the Reference Asset, such securities, or instruments related to the Reference Asset or such securities from time to time. Any of these
hedging or trading activities on or prior to the Pricing Date and during the term of the notes could adversely affect the payments on
the notes.

· **Many economic and market factors will influence the value of the notes.** — In addition to the level of the Reference Asset
and interest rates on any trading day, the value of the notes will be affected by a number of economic and market factors that may either
offset or magnify each other, and which are described in more detail in the product supplement.

· **Significant aspects of the tax treatment of the notes are uncertain.** — The tax treatment of the notes is uncertain. We
do not plan to request a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service or from any Canadian authorities regarding the tax treatment of the
notes, and the Internal Revenue Service or a court may not agree with the tax treatment described herein. The Internal Revenue Service has released a notice that may affect the taxation of holders of "prepaid forward contracts"
and similar instruments. According to the notice, the Internal Revenue Service and the U.S. Treasury are actively considering whether
the holder of such instruments should be required to accrue ordinary income on a current basis. While it is not clear whether the notes
would be viewed as similar to such instruments, it is possible that any future guidance could materially and adversely affect the tax
consequences of an investment in the notes, possibly with retroactive effect. Please read carefully the section entitled "U.S. Federal Tax Information" herein, the section entitled "Supplemental Tax
Considerations–Supplemental U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations" in the accompanying product supplement, the section entitled
"United States Federal Income Taxation" in the accompanying prospectus and the section entitled "Certain Income Tax Consequences"
in the accompanying prospectus supplement. You should consult your tax advisor about your own tax situation.

**Examples of the Hypothetical Payment at Maturity for a $1,000 Investment in the Notes** 

The following table illustrates the hypothetical payments on a note at maturity, assuming that the notes are not automatically redeemed. The hypothetical payments are based on a $1,000 investment in the note, a hypothetical Initial Level of $100.00, a hypothetical Trigger Level of $89.00 (89.00% of the hypothetical Initial Level), a hypothetical Call Level of $100.00 (100.00% of the hypothetical Initial Level), a range of hypothetical Final Levels and the effect on the payment at maturity .

The hypothetical examples shown below are intended to help you understand the terms of the notes. If the notes are not automatically redeemed, the actual amount of cash or shares that you will receive at maturity will depend upon the Final Level of the Reference Asset. If the notes are automatically redeemed 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.

As discussed in more detail above, your total return on the notes will also depend on the number of Contingent Coupon Dates on which the Contingent Coupon is payable. It is possible that the only payments on your notes will be the payment, if any, due at maturity. The payment at maturity will not exceed the principal amount, and may be significantly less.

\* Represents the cash value of the Physical Delivery Amount on the Valuation Date. We may elect to deliver either the Physical Delivery Amount or the Cash Delivery Amount. If we elect to deliver the Physical Delivery Amount, the actual value received and your total return on the notes on the Maturity Date will depend on the value of the Reference Asset on the Maturity Date.

**U.S. Federal Tax Information**

By purchasing the notes, each holder agrees (in the absence of a change in law, an administrative determination or a judicial ruling to the contrary) to treat each note as a pre-paid contingent income-bearing derivative contract for U.S. federal income tax purposes. In the opinion of our counsel, Mayer Brown LLP, it would generally be reasonable to treat the notes as pre-paid contingent income-bearing derivative contracts in respect of the Reference Asset for U.S. federal income tax purposes. However, the U.S. federal income tax consequences of your investment in the notes are uncertain and the Internal Revenue Service could assert that the notes should be taxed in a manner that is different from that described in the preceding sentence. Please see the discussion in the accompanying product supplement under "Supplemental Tax Considerations—Supplemental U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations—Notes Treated as Investment Units Consisting of a Debt Portion and a Put Option, as Pre-Paid Contingent Income-Bearing Derivative Contracts, or as Pre-Paid Derivative Contracts—Notes Treated as Pre-Paid Contingent Income-Bearing Derivative Contracts," which applies to the notes.

**Supplemental Plan of Distribution (Conflicts of Interest)**

BMOCM will purchase the notes from us at a purchase price reflecting the commission set forth on the cover hereof. BMOCM has informed us that, as part of its distribution of the notes, it will reoffer the notes to other dealers who will sell them. Each such dealer, or each additional dealer engaged by a dealer to whom BMOCM reoffers the notes, will receive a commission from BMOCM, which will not exceed the commission set forth on the cover page.

Certain dealers who purchase the notes for sale to certain fee-based advisory accounts may forego some or all of their selling concessions, fees or commissions. The public offering price for investors purchasing the notes in these accounts may be less than 100% of the principal amount, as set forth on the cover page of this document. Investors that hold their notes in these accounts may be charged fees by the investment advisor or manager of that account based on the amount of assets held in those accounts, including the notes.

We will deliver the notes on a date that is greater than one business day following the pricing date. Under Rule 15c6-1 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), trades in the secondary market generally are required to settle in one business day, unless the parties to any such trade expressly agree otherwise. Accordingly, purchasers who wish to trade the notes more than one business day prior to the issue date will be required to specify alternative settlement arrangements to prevent a failed settlement.

We own, directly or indirectly, all of the outstanding equity securities of BMOCM, the agent for this offering. In accordance with FINRA Rule 5121, BMOCM may not make sales in this offering to any of its discretionary accounts without the prior written approval of the customer.

You should not construe the offering of the notes as a recommendation of the merits of acquiring an investment linked to the Reference Asset or as to the suitability of an investment in the notes.

BMOCM may, but is not obligated to, make a market in the notes. BMOCM will determine any secondary market prices that it is prepared to offer in its sole discretion.

We may use this pricing supplement in the initial sale of the notes. In addition, BMOCM or another of our affiliates may use this pricing supplement in market-making transactions in any notes after their initial sale. Unless BMOCM or we inform you otherwise in the confirmation of sale, this pricing supplement is being used by BMOCM in a market-making transaction.

For a period of approximately three months following issuance of the notes, the price, if any, at which we or our affiliates would be willing to buy the notes from investors, and the value that BMOCM may also publish for the notes through one or more financial information vendors and which could be indicated for the notes on any brokerage account statements, will reflect a temporary upward adjustment from our estimated value of the notes that would otherwise be determined and applicable at that time. This temporary upward adjustment represents a portion of (a) the hedging profit that we or our affiliates expect to realize over the term of the notes and (b) any underwriting discount and the selling concessions paid in connection with this offering. The amount of this temporary upward adjustment will decline to zero on a straight-line basis over the three-month period.

The notes and the related offer to purchase notes and sale of notes under the terms and conditions provided herein do not constitute a public offering in any non-U.S. jurisdiction, and are being made available only to individually identified investors pursuant to a private offering as permitted in the relevant jurisdiction. The notes are not, and will not be, registered with any securities exchange or registry located outside of the United States and have not been registered with any non-U.S. securities or banking regulatory authority. The contents of this document have not been reviewed or approved by any non-U.S. securities or banking regulatory authority. Any person who wishes to acquire the notes from outside the United States should seek the advice or legal counsel as to the relevant requirements to acquire these notes.

*Brazil.* The notes have not been, and will not be issued nor publicly placed, distributed, offered or negotiated in the Brazilian capital markets and, as a result, have not been and will not be registered with the Comissão de Valores Mobiliáros ("CVM"). Any public offering or distribution, as defined under Brazilian laws and regulations, of the notes in Brazil is not legal without prior registration under Law 6,385/76, and CVM applicable regulation. Documents relating to the offering of the notes, as well as information contained therein, may not be supplied to the public in Brazil (as the offering of the notes is not a public offering of securities in Brazil), nor be used in connection with any offer for subscription or sale of the notes to the public in Brazil. Persons wishing to offer or acquire the notes within Brazil should consult with their own counsel as to the applicability of registration requirements or any exemption therefrom.

*British Virgin Islands.* The notes have not been, and will not be, registered under the laws and regulations of the British Virgin Islands, nor has any regulatory authority in the British Virgin Islands passed comment upon or approved the accuracy or adequacy of this document. This pricing supplement and the related documents shall not constitute an offer, invitation or solicitation to any member of the public in the British Virgin Islands for the purposes of the Securities and Investment Business Act, 2010, of the British Virgin Islands.

*Cayman Islands.* Pursuant to the Companies Law (as amended) of the Cayman Islands, no invitation may be made to the public in the Cayman Islands to subscribe for the notes by or on behalf of the issuer unless at the time of such invitation the issuer is listed on the Cayman Islands Stock Exchange. The issuer is not presently listed on the Cayman Islands Stock Exchange and, accordingly, no invitation to the public in the Cayman Islands is to be made by the issuer (or by any dealer on its behalf). No such invitation is made to the public in the Cayman Islands hereby.

*Chile.* Neither the issuer nor the notes have been registered with the Comisión Para el Mercado Financiero pursuant to Law No. 18.045, the Ley de Mercado de Valores and regulations thereunder, so they cannot be publicly offered in Chile. This pricing supplement (and the related prospectus supplement and prospectus) do not constitute an offer of, or an invitation to subscribe for or purchase, the notes in the republic of Chile, other than to individually identified buyers pursuant to a private offering within the meaning of Article 4 of the Ley de Mercado de Valores (an offer that is not addressed to the public at large or to a certain sector or specific group of the public).

*Dominican Republic.* Nothing in this pricing supplement constitutes an offer of securities for sale in the Dominican Republic. The notes have not been, and will not be, registered with the Superintendence of Securities Market of the Dominican Republic (Superintendencia del Mercado de Valores), under Dominican Securities Market Law No. 249-17 ("Securities Law 249-17"), and the notes may not be offered or sold within the Dominican Republic or to, or for the account or benefit of, Dominican persons (as defined under Securities Law 249-17 and its regulations). Failure to comply with these directives may result in a violation of Securities Law 249-17 and its regulations.

*Hong Kong.* WARNING: The contents of this document have not been reviewed by any regulatory authority in Hong Kong. You are advised to exercise caution in relation to the offer. If you are in any doubt about any of the contents of this document, you should obtain independent professional advice.

Please note that (1) the notes may not be offered or sold in Hong Kong by means of this document or any other document other than: (i) to "professional investors" within the meaning of Part 1 of Schedule 1 to the Securities and Futures Ordinance of Hong Kong (Cap. 571) (SFO) and any rules made thereunder; or (ii) in other circumstances which do not result in the document being a "prospectus" as defined in the Companies (Winding Up and Miscellaneous Provisions) Ordinance of Hong Kong (Cap. 32) (CWUMPO) or which do not constitute an offer or invitation to the public for the purposes of the CWUMPO or the SFO, and (2) no person shall issue, or possess for the purposes of issue, whether in Hong Kong or elsewhere, any advertisement, invitation or document relating to the notes which is directed at, or the contents of which are likely to be assessed or read by, the public in Hong Kong (except if permitted to do so under the securities laws of Hong Kong) other than with respect to the notes which are or are intended to be disposed of only to persons outside Hong Kong or only to such "professional investors" (as set out above).

*Israel.* This pricing supplement is intended solely for investors listed in the First Supplement of the Israeli Securities Law of 1968, as amended. A prospectus has not been prepared or filed, and will not be prepared or filed, in Israel relating to the notes offered hereunder. The notes cannot be resold in Israel other than to investors listed in the First Supplement of the Israeli Securities Law of 1968, as amended.

No action will be taken in Israel that would permit an offering of the notes or the distribution of any offering document or any other material to the public in Israel. In particular, no offering document or other material has been reviewed or approved by the Israel Securities Authority. Any material provided to an offeree in Israel may not be reproduced or used for any other purpose, nor be furnished to any other person other than those to whom copies have been provided directly by us or the selling agents.

Nothing in this pricing supplement or any other offering material relating to the notes, should be considered as the rendering of a recommendation or advice, including investment advice or investment marketing under the Law For Regulation of Investment Advice, Investment Marketing and Investment Portfolio Management, 1995, to purchase any note. The purchase of any note will be based on an investor's own understanding, for the investor's own benefit and for the investor's own account and not with the aim or intention of distributing or offering to other parties. In purchasing the notes, each investor declares that it has the knowledge, expertise and experience in financial and business matters so as to be capable of evaluating the risks and merits of an investment in the notes, without relying on any of the materials provided.

*Mexico.* The notes have not been registered with the National Registry of Securities maintained by the Mexican National Banking and Securities Commission and may not be offered or sold publicly in Mexico. This pricing supplement and the related documents may not be publicly distributed in Mexico. The notes may only be offered in a private offering pursuant to Article 8 of the Securities Market Law.

*Panama.* The notes have not been and will not be registered with the Superintendency of Securities Market of the Republic of Panama under Decree Law N°1 of July 8, 1999 (the "Panamanian Securities Act") and may not be publicly offered or sold within Panama, except in certain limited transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Panamanian Securities Act, including the private placement rule based on number 2 of Article 83 of Law Decree 1 of July 8, 1999 (or number 2 of Article 129 of the Unified Text of Law Decree 1 of July 8, 1999). The notes do not benefit from the tax incentives provided by the Panamanian Securities Act and are not subject to regulation or supervision by the Superintendency of Securities Market of the Republic of Panama.

*Paraguay.* The sale of the notes qualifies as a private placement pursuant to Law No. 5810/17 "Stock Market". The notes must not be offered or sold to the public in Paraguay, except under circumstances which do not constitute a public offering in accordance with Paraguayan regulations. The notes are not and will not be registered before the Paraguayan securities supervisory body Comisión Nacional de Valores ("CNV") the Paraguayan private stock exchange Bolsa de Valores y Productos de Asunción ("BVPASA"). The issuer is also not registered before the CNV or the BVPASA. In no case may notes not registered before the CNV be offered to the general public via mass media such as press, radio, television, or internet when such media are publicly accessible in the Republic of Paraguay, regardless of the location from where they are issued.

The privately placed notes are not registered with the National Securities Commission, and therefore do not have tax benefits and are not negotiable through the BVPASA. Privately placed securities may have less liquidity, making it difficult to sell such securities in the secondary market, which could also affect the sale price. Private securities of issuers not registered before the CNV may not have periodic financial information or audited financial statements, which could generate greater risk to the investor due to the asymmetry of information. It is the responsibility of the investor to ascertain and assess the risk assumed in the acquisition of the security.

*Peru.* The notes have not been and will not be registered with the Capital Markets Public Registry of the Capital Markets Superintendence ("SMV") nor the Lima Stock Exchange Registry ("RBVL") for their public offering in Peru under the Peruvian Capital Markets Law (Law No. 861/ Supreme Decree No. 093-2002) and the decrees and regulations thereunder. Consequently, the notes may not be offered or sold, directly or indirectly, nor may this pricing supplement or the related prospectus supplement, the prospectus or any other material relating to the notes be distributed or caused to be distributed in Peru to the general public. The notes may only be offered in a private offering under Peruvian regulation and without using mass marketing, which is defined as a marketing strategy utilizing mass distribution and mass media to offer, negotiate or distribute notes to the whole market. Mass media includes newspapers, magazines, radio, television, mail, meetings, social networks, Internet servers located in Peru, and other media or technology platforms.

*Switzerland.* This pricing supplement is not intended to constitute an offer or solicitation to purchase or invest in any notes. Neither this pricing supplement nor any other offering or marketing material relating to the notes constitutes a prospectus compliant with the requirements of articles 35 et seq. of the Swiss Financial Services Act ("FinSA")) for a public offering of the notes in Switzerland and no such prospectus has been or will be prepared for or in connection with the offering of the notes in Switzerland.

Neither this pricing supplement nor any other offering or marketing material relating to the notes has been or will be filed with or approved by a Swiss review body (Prüfstelle). No application has been or is intended to be made to admit the notes to trading on any trading venue (SIX Swiss Exchange or on any other exchange or any multilateral trading facility) in Switzerland. Neither this pricing supplement nor any other offering or marketing material relating to the notes may be publicly distributed or otherwise made publicly available in Switzerland.

The notes may not be publicly offered, directly or indirectly, in Switzerland within the meaning of FinSA except (i) in any circumstances falling within the exemptions to prepare a prospectus listed in article 36 para. 1 FinSA or (ii) where such offer does not qualify as a public offer in Switzerland, provided always that no offer of notes shall require the Issuer or any offeror to publish a prospectus pursuant to article 35 FinSA in respect to such offer and that such offer shall comply with the additional restrictions set out below (if applicable). The Issuer has not authorised and does not authorise any offer of notes which would require the Issuer or any offeror to publish a prospectus pursuant to article 35 FinSA in respect of such offer. For purposes of this provision "public offer" shall have the meaning as such term is understood pursuant to article 3 lit. g and h FinSA and the Swiss Financial Services Ordinance ("FinSO").

The notes do not constitute participations in a collective investment scheme within the meaning of the Swiss Collective Investment Schemes Act. They are not subject to the approval of, or supervision by, the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority ("FINMA"), and investors in the notes will not benefit from protection under CISA or supervision by FINMA.

Prohibition of Offer to Private Clients in Switzerland - No Key Information Document pursuant to article 58 FinSA (Basisinformationsblatt für Finanzinstrumente) or equivalent document under foreign law pursuant to article 59 para. 2 FinSA has been or will be prepared in relation to the notes. Therefore, the following additional restriction applies: Notes qualifying as "debt securities with a derivative character" pursuant to article 86 para. 2 FinSO may not be offered within the meaning of article 58 para. 1 FinSA, and neither this pricing supplement nor any other offering or marketing material relating to such notes may be made available, to any retail client (Privatkunde) within the meaning of FinSA in Switzerland.

*Uruguay.* The sale of the notes qualifies as a private placement pursuant to section 2 of Uruguayan law 18,627. The notes must not be offered or sold to the public in Uruguay, except in circumstances which do not constitute a public S-31 offering or distribution under Uruguayan laws and regulations. The notes are not and will not be registered with the Financial Services Superintendency of the Central Bank of Uruguay.

*Venezuela.* The notes have not been registered with the Superintendencia Nacional de Valores de Venezuela and are not being publicly offered in Venezuela. No document related to the offering of the notes, including this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, shall be interpreted to constitute an offer of securities or an offer or the rendering of any investment advice, securities brokerage, and/or banking services in Venezuela. Investors wishing to acquire the notes may use only funds located outside of Venezuela.

The notes may also be sold in the following jurisdictions, provided, in each case, any sales are made in accordance with all applicable laws in such jurisdiction:

· Barbados

· Belize

· Bermuda

· Bolivia

· Colombia

· Costa Rica

· Ecuador

· Guatemala

· Honduras

**Additional Information Relating to the Estimated Initial Value of the Notes**

Our estimated initial value of the notes on the date hereof that is set forth on the cover hereof, equals the sum of the values of the following hypothetical components:

· a fixed-income debt component with the same tenor as the notes, valued using our internal funding rate for structured notes; and

· one or more derivative transactions relating to the economic terms of the notes.

The internal funding rate used in the determination of the initial estimated value generally represents a discount from the credit spreads for our conventional fixed-rate debt. The value of these derivative transactions is derived from our internal pricing models. These models are based on factors such as the traded market prices of comparable derivative instruments and on other inputs, which include volatility, dividend rates, interest rates and other factors. As a result, the estimated initial value of the notes on the Pricing Date was determined based on the market conditions on the Pricing Date.

**The Reference Asset**

We have derived the following information from publicly available documents. We have not independently verified the accuracy or completeness of the following information. We are not affiliated with the Reference Asset Issuer and the Reference Asset Issuer will have no obligations with respect to the notes. This document relates only to the notes and does not relate to the shares of the Reference Asset or any securities included in the Underlying Index. Neither we nor any of our affiliates participates in the preparation of the publicly available documents described below. Neither we nor any of our affiliates has made any due diligence inquiry with respect to the Reference Asset in connection with the offering of the notes. There can be no assurance that all events occurring prior to the date hereof, including events that would affect the accuracy or completeness of the publicly available documents described below and that would affect the trading price of the shares of the Reference Asset, have been or will be publicly disclosed. Subsequent disclosure of any events or the disclosure of or failure to disclose material future events concerning the Reference Asset could affect the price of the shares of the Reference Asset on each Observation Date and on the Valuation Date, and therefore could affect the payments on the notes.

The selection of the Reference Asset is not a recommendation to buy or sell the shares of the Reference Asset. Neither we nor any of our affiliates make any representation to you as to the performance of the shares of the Reference Asset. Information provided to or filed with the SEC under the Exchange Act and the Investment Company Act of 1940 relating to the Reference Asset may be obtained through the SEC's website at http://www.sec.gov.

The iShares<sup>®</sup> 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF ("TLT") seeks to track the investment results of the ICE U.S. Treasury 20+ Year Bond Index (the "IDCOT20T"), which measures the performance of public obligations of the U.S. Treasury that have a remaining maturity greater than twenty years. Prior to the selection of the IDCOT20T on April 1, 2016, the TLT tracked the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. 20+ Year Treasury Bond Index. The TLT trades on the Nasdaq Global Market under the ticker symbol "TLT."

BlackRock<sup><sup>®</sup></sup> Fund Advisors ("BFA"), the investment adviser of TLT, uses a "passive" or indexing approach to try to achieve the investment objective of TLT.

Information provided to or filed with the SEC pursuant to the Securities Act and the Investment Company Act can be located by reference to SEC file numbers 333-92935 and 811-09729, respectively, through the SEC's website at www.sec.gov. Information from outside sources is not incorporated by reference in, and should not be considered a part of, this document. In addition, information may be obtained from other sources including, but not limited to, press releases, newspaper articles and other publicly disseminated documents.

*Investment Objective and Strategy*

The TLT generally invests at least 90% of its assets in the bonds of the IDCOT20T and at least 95% of its assets in U.S. government bonds. TLT may invest up to 10% of its assets in U.S. government bonds not included in the IDCOT20T, but which BFA believes will help TLT track the IDCOT20T. TLT also may invest up to 5% of its assets in repurchase agreements collateralized by U.S. government obligations and in cash and cash equivalents, including shares of money market funds advised by BFA or its affiliates. TLT seeks to track the investment results of the IDCOT20T before fees and expenses of TLT.

TLT may lend securities representing up to one-third of the value of its total assets (including the value of any collateral received). The IDCOT20T is sponsored by ICE Data Indices, LLC or its affiliates (the "IDI"), which is independent of TLT and BFA. The IDI determines the composition and relative weightings of the securities in the IDCOT20T and publishes information regarding the market value of the IDCOT20T.

*Representative Sampling*

BFA uses a representative sampling indexing strategy to manage the TLT. "Representative sampling" is an indexing strategy that involves investing in a representative sample of securities that collectively has an investment profile similar to that of the IDCOT20T. The securities selected are expected to have, in the aggregate, investment characteristics (based on factors such as market capitalization and industry weightings), fundamental characteristics (such as return variability, duration, maturity, credit ratings and yield) and liquidity measures similar to those of the IDCOT20T. The TLT may or may not hold all of the securities in the IDCOT20T.

*Industry Concentration Policy*

TLT will concentrate its investments (i.e., hold 25% or more of its total assets) in a particular industry or group of industries to approximately the same extent that the IDCOT20T is concentrated. For purposes of this limitation, securities of the U.S. government (including its agencies and instrumentalities), repurchase agreements collateralized by U.S. government securities, and securities of state or municipal governments and their political subdivisions are not considered to be issued by members of any industry.

IDI has no obligation to continue to publish, and may discontinue publication of, the IDCOT20T.

The ICE U.S. Treasury 20+ Year Bond Index is a market-value weighted index that is designed to measure the performance of the U.S. dollar-denominated, fixed-rate U.S. Treasury market that has a remaining maturity of greater than or equal to twenty years. The IDCOT20T was launched on December 31, 2015. The IDCOT20T is reported by Bloomberg L.P. under the ticker symbol "IDCOT20."

***Index Eligibility Criteria and Inclusion Rules***

The IDCOT20T consists of securities that meet the criteria listed below (the "Eligible Bond universe"). The basis of the Eligible Bond universe are those securities for which content is available daily, including evaluations and reference data, through ICE Data Pricing & Reference Data, LLC ("PRD").

*Maturity.* Each security must have a minimum remaining term to final maturity of greater than or equal to twenty years as of the last business day of the month (the "Rebalance Date"). Treasury securities that have an announced call are removed from the IDCOT20T at the end of the month prior to the month in which the call will take place.

*Size.* Each security is required to have a minimum amount outstanding of U.S. $300 million. Amount outstanding is defined as the par amount outstanding of each U.S. Treasury security, inclusive of any announced auctions or re-openings, less the par amount of that U.S. Treasury security held in the Federal Reserve System Open Market Account or bought at issuance by the Federal Reserve. A new issuance bought at auction by the Federal Reserve is not included in the Eligible Bond universe. Secondary market purchases or sales by the Federal Reserve that occur in the current month are reflected in the Eligible Bond universe at the next rebalancing.

*Coupon.* The Eligible Bond universe includes only fixed-rate securities, excluding zero coupon securities.

*Currency.* The Eligible Bond universe includes only securities with principal and interest denominated in U.S. dollars.

*Bond Type.* Inflation-linked securities, Treasury bills, floating-rate notes, cash-management bills and any government agency debt issued with or without a government guarantee are excluded from the Eligible Bond universe.

***Index Maintenance***

The IDCOT20T is rebalanced monthly. Securities are required to meet the IDCOT20T inclusion rules highlighted in the previous section to be considered for inclusion at the beginning of any given month. This includes the availability of evaluated pricing and reference data through PRD.

*Rebalancing.* The IDCOT20T is rebalanced at each month end. The new IDCOT20T for the next month is available three days prior to month end and is intended to reflect the constituent changes from the prior rebalancing date based on index eligibility.

*Reinvestment of Cash Flows.* Cash that has accrued intra-month from interest and principal payments by the securities included in the IDCOT20T earns no reinvestment return during the month. Accumulated cash (from coupon and principal payments) is removed from the IDCOT20T at month-end, such that the cash is reinvested pro rata across the entire IDCOT20T.

*New Issues.* Qualifying securities issued on or before the rebalancing date may qualify for inclusion. Issued securities are included in the pro forma IDCOT20T with a price of U.S. $100 until replaced with an evaluated price as soon as available after auction day.

***Calculation***

Returns and risk measures, such as yield duration, are first calculated at the constituent level and then aggregated to the IDCOT20T level using its constituents' market weights.

*Constituent Level Calculations*

![](image_001.jpg), ![](image_002.jpg), ![](image_003.jpg), ![](image_004.jpg) and ![](image_005.jpg) and ![](image_006.jpg), ![](image_007.jpg), ![](image_008.jpg), ![](image_009.jpg) and ![](image_010.jpg) denote the price, accrued interest, par amount, cumulative coupon payments and market values at date ![](image_011.jpg) and date ![](image_012.jpg), respectively. C denotes the coupon payments during the period (excluding any coupon payment on date ![](image_011.jpg) but including any coupon payment on date ![](image_012.jpg)).

Coupon payments during the period are calculated as follows:![](image_013.jpg).

The market values at time ![](image_014.jpg) and ![](image_015.jpg) are: ![](image_016.jpg) and ![](image_017.jpg), respectively.

The price return![](image_018.jpg) and coupon return ![](image_019.jpg) (whenever applicable) are defined as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o Price return: return due to price appreciation over the return period:

![](image_020.jpg)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;o Coupon return: return due to coupon accrual during the period:

![](image_021.jpg)

The total return is the sum of the price return and the coupon return:

![](image_022.jpg)

*Index Level Calculations*

The IDCOT20T had an initial level of 100 at the inception date. As time passes, the IDCOT20T level is calculated in an iterative way as follows:

![](image_023.jpg)

The IDCOT20T total return is calculated by aggregating the constituent level total returns using market weights. To calculate the IDCOT20T total return for the period from dates ![](image_011.jpg) and ![](image_012.jpg), market value weights at date ![](image_011.jpg) are used. The total market value of the IDCOT20T at time ![](image_011.jpg) is ![](image_024.jpg) ![](image_025.jpg) plus any intra-month cash from coupon payment or principal repayment and the weight for constituent security, which is calculated as follows:

![](image_026.jpg)

The IDCOT20T's level will be provided to four decimal places.

***Index Policies***

*Timing and Pricing Source.*

The IDCOT20T's level is calculated using 3:00 p.m. Eastern Standard Time evaluations from PRD. These evaluations are based upon methodologies designed to reflect the market upon which the IDCOT20T is based.

PRD's bid-side evaluations are market-based measurements that are processed through a rules-based pricing application and represent its good faith determinations as to what the holder would receive in an orderly transaction (for an institutional round lot position, typically $1,000,000 or greater current value in U.S. dollars or local currency equivalent) under current market conditions. The rules based logic utilizes valuation techniques that may vary by asset class and per methodology, maximize the use of relevant observable data including quoted prices for similar assets, benchmark yield curves and market corroborated inputs. For example, its pricing applications are coded to review trades and bids to determine that the lot size is representative of an institutional round lot, though smaller or retail sized lots may be considered, especially if this is the only or primary trading information available.

PRD's evaluators meet regularly to discuss market movements and other macro-economic information. PRD evaluates U.S. Treasury securities by obtaining feeds continuously from a number of live data sources including active market makers and inter-dealer brokers. Sources are reviewed on the basis of their historical accuracy for individual issues and maturity ranges. As new information is received, it is compared against the previous evaluation as part of the daily process. To provide additional transparency into its procedures, controls and governing processes, PRD adopted a code of conduct which enables benchmark administrators, like IDI, to exercise oversight of the benchmark setting process in conformance with the IOSCO Principles. IDI also maintains a verification process designed to identify price tolerance breaks for further investigation.

 

*Calendar*. The IDCOT20T follows the SIFMA U.S. bond market holiday schedule. The IDCOT20T's level is calculated daily at the end of each day on which SIFMA declares the U.S. fixed income markets open. When the bond market closes early per the SIFMA schedule, the IDCOT20T's level may be calculated at a time in accordance with the recommended close. However, evaluated pricing from PRD must be available to calculate the IDCOT20T's level.

*Exceptional Market Conditions and Corrections*. IDI retains the right to delay the publication of the level of the IDCOT20T. Furthermore, IDI retains the right to suspend the publication of the level of the IDCOT20T if it believes that circumstances prevent the proper calculation of the IDCOT20T. If evaluated prices are not available, the IDCOT20T will not be recalculated unless IDI decides otherwise. Reasonable efforts are made to ensure the correctness and validity of data used in index calculations. Where errors have occurred in the determination or calculation of the IDCOT20T, the decision to make a restatement will be assessed on a case by case basis. Such decision will take account of the significance, impact, age and scale of the error.

In the event that there is a market-wide event resulting in evaluated prices not being available, IDI will determine its approach on a case by case basis, taking into account information and notifications provided by PRD. Market-wide events include, but are not limited to, technological problems or failures, natural disaster or other business continuity planning-related event. IDI will communicate any issues with publication of the IDCOT20T during the day through the regular client communication channels; in addition, IDI may also contact clients directly; post a notice on the IDI website; send a message via the market data portal; or use other such forms of communication.

*Expert Judgment*. In cases which are not expressly covered in the index rules, operational adjustments may take place along the lines of the aim of the IDCOT20T. Operational adjustments may also take place if, in the opinion of IDI, it is desirable to do so to maintain the integrity of the IDCOT20T. Any such modifications described under this section or exercise of expert judgment will be based upon the IDI's Index Design Principles, which detail the core design principles adhered to IDI in establishing an IDCOT20T determination specific to the IDCOT20T. "Expert Judgment" refers to the exercise of discretion by the IDI with respect to the use of data in determining a benchmark. Expert Judgment includes extrapolating values from prior or related transactions, adjusting values for factors that might influence the quality of data such as market events or impairment of a buyer's or seller's credit quality or weighting firm bids or offers greater than a particular concluded transaction. Any exercise of expert judgment will be overseen by the ICE Data Indices, LLC Governance Committee (for purposes of this section, the "Index Committee"). The IDI Index Design Principles are available on request to PRD.

*Index Reviews*. IDI undertakes regular reviews of the IDCOT20T, the methodology and the market which it represents to ensure it continues to meet the index objective, in accordance with IDI's policies and procedures. Should material changes to the IDCOT20T be required or proposed, this will be communicated to stakeholders and subscribers in accordance with IDI's consultation policy, where possible.

*Consultations*. IDI may from time to time consult with stakeholders and subscribers on proposed material changes that affect the IDCOT20T in accordance with IDI's consultation process. These proposals will be published to stakeholders and subscribers and all feedback received will be considered by IDI. Any resulting changes to the IDCOT20T will be announced prior to it being implemented.

*Restatements.* IDI reserves the right to restate the IDCOT20T's level based on its discretion. The IDCOT20T subscribers are notified prior to a restatement of data. Restatements are typically communicated on the same day but may take longer depending on the volume of restatements required and other conditions.

***Index Governance***

The Index Committee is responsible for governance and oversight of the IDCOT20T. The Index Committee provides oversight to IDI that has daily responsibilities for the development, issuance and operation of the IDCOT20T.

The Index Committee will approve any necessary changes in the IDCOT20T's methodology. The IDI is then responsible for implementing the changes and notifying subscribers. Where a change is material, IDI will consult with stakeholders and subscribers in accordance with the IDI consultation process. For other changes, advance notice will be provided, where possible, to allow stakeholders and subscribers appropriate preparation to implement the change.
