BMO AutoCallable Notes, Series 1620 (CAD), Due March 16, 2028 Linked to Solactive Canada Bank 30 AR Index

==> picture [609 x 516] intentionally omitted <==

----- Start of picture text -----

KEY TERMS
The Notes offer the potential for a variable return while providing contingent protection against a slight to moderate decline in the Solactive Canada
Bank 30 AR Index (the “ Reference Index ”) over the term of the Notes. The Principal Amount is NOT protected under these Notes.
Semi-annual
AutoCall  Issuer: Bank of Montreal.
 Medium Term: 7-year term to maturity (subject to the Notes being automatically called by the Bank).
Feature  Reference Index: The Solactive Canada Bank 30 AR Index is an adjusted return index. It aims to track the gross total return performance of the
Solactive Canada Bank TR Index (the “ Underlying Index ”), calculated in CAD less an adjusted return factor of 30 index points per annum that
will be calculated daily in arrears (the “Adjusted Return Factor” ). The Closing Level on January 29, 2021 was 662.09. The Adjusted Return
Factor divided by the Closing Level was therefore equal to 4.53% on January 29, 2021. Over the term of the Notes, the sum of the Adjusted
Return Factor will be approximately 210 index points, representing 31.74% of the Closing Level on January 29, 2021. The Underlying Index is a
Linked to gross total return index that reflects the price changes of its constituent securities and the reinvestment in the index of any dividends and
Solactive Canada distributions paid in respect of such securities. For the calculation of the level of the Underlying Index, any dividends or other distributions paid
on the constituent securities of the Underlying Index are assumed to be reinvested across all the constituent securities of the Underlying
Bank 30 AR Index
Index.
 AutoCall Feature: The Notes will be automatically called by the Bank if the Closing Level is equal to or above the AutoCall Level (i.e., 100% of
the Initial Level) on any Valuation Date. If the automatic call feature is triggered, Holders will receive payment of the Principal Amount, plus a
Variable Return that increases each Valuation Date. If the Closing Level is never equal to or above the AutoCall Level on any Valuation Date, the
Notes will not be automatically called by the Bank and there will be no Variable Return paid on the Notes.
Potential  Potential Variable Return: The Notes will be automatically called by the Bank if the Closing Level is equal to or above the AutoCall Level on any
Variable Return Valuation Date. If the automatic call feature is triggered, Holders will receive payment of the Principal Amount plus a Variable Return that
increases each Valuation Date.
 Fixed Return: in Year 0.5: 4.90%; Year 1: 9.80%; Year 1.5: 14.70%; Year 2: 19.60%; Year 2.5: 24.50%; Year 3: 29.40%; Year 3.5: 34.30%; Year 4:
39.20%; Year 4.5: 44.10%; Year 5: 49.00%; Year 5.5: 53.90%; Year 6: 58.80%; Year 6.5: 63.70%; Year 7: 68.60% ; (or an annualized return of
9.95%, 9.80%, 9.55%, 9.36%, 9.12%, 8.95%, 8.77%, 8.61%, 8.44%, 8.30%, 8.14%, 8.01%, 7.87% and 7.74%, respectively).
 Contingent Protection: If the Index Return is negative, the Principal Amount will be protected so long as the Final Level is equal to or above the
Barrier Level (i.e., 70% of the Initial Level) . If the Final Level is below the Barrier Level, the Maturity Payment will be equal to the Principal
30% Contingent Amount reduced by an amount equal to the Index Return (which will be a negative amount reflecting the decline in the Closing Level), subject
to the Minimum Payment Amount. The calculation and timing of the payments at Maturity may be adjusted upon the occurrence of certain
Protection special circumstances.
at Maturity  Daily Secondary Market: Provided by BMO Capital Markets (may be subject to an early trading charge of up to 3.50% declining to zero after 90
days from the Issue Date and other limitations as described in the Prospectus). The Notes will not be listed on any exchange or marketplace.
The dividend yield of the Underlying Index on January 29, 2021 was 4.43%, representing an aggregate dividend yield of approximately 31.03% over the
term of the Notes (assuming the dividend yield remains constant and the dividends are not reinvested). An investment in the Notes does not represent a
direct or indirect investment in any of the constituent securities that comprise the Underlying Index. Holders have no right or entitlement to the
Fundserv dividends or distributions paid on such securities.

Barrier Level 70% of the I nitial Level, resulting in full principal protection against a decline in the Closing Level on the Final Valuation Date of up to 30% from the Initial Level.
Maturity Payment Subject to t he occurrence of an Extraordinary Event, a Holder will receive a payment on either the Call Date or the Maturity Date based on the Closing Level on the
applicable V aluation Date. The Maturity Payment will be determined as follows:
(i)
If t
he Closing Level is equal to or above the AutoCall Level on any Valuation Date, the Notes will be automatically called by the Bank and a Holder will receive a
Maturity Payment equal to the Principal Amount plus the Variable Return on the applicable Call Date or Maturity Date, calculated using the following formula:
Principal Amount + Variable Return
(ii)
If the Notes are not automatically called by the Bank and the Final Level is equal to or above the Barrier Level, there will be no Variable Return payable on the
Notes and a Holder will receive a Maturity Payment equal to the Principal Amount on the Maturity Date.
(iii)
If the Notes are not automatically called by the Bank and the Final Level is below the Barrier Level, a Barrier Event has occurred and there will be no Variable
Return payable on the Notes and a Holder will receive a Maturity Payment that is less than the Principal Amount on the Maturity Date. In this case, the Principal
Amount will be reduced by an amount equal to the Index Return (which will be a negative amount reflecting the decline in the Closing Level), subject to the
Minimum Payment Amount, calculated using the following formula:
Principal Amount + (Principal Amount × Index Return)
If the Notes are automatically called by the Bank before Maturity, the Variable Return will be calculated on the applicable Call Valuation Date and the Maturity Payment
will be made on the Call Date. In such circumstances, the Notes will be cancelled and Holders will not be entitled to receive any subsequent payments in respect of the
Notes. If the Notes are not automatically called before Maturity, the Maturity Payment will be made on the Maturity Date.
The Notes are not redeemable at the option of a Holder. See “Description of the Notes — Maturity Payment” in the Prospectus.

Subject to the occurrence of an Extraordinary Event, if the Closing Level is equal to or above the AutoCall Level on any Valuation Date, a Holder will be entitled to receive a Variable Return calculated using the following formula:

Variable Return

Principal Amount × (Fixed Return + Excess Return) Principal Amount × (Fixed Return + Excess Return) Principal Amount × (Fixed Return + Excess Return) Principal Amount × (Fixed Return + Excess Return)
Valuation Date Fixed Return Annualized Return Excess Return
(Index Return > Fixed Return)
Call Valuation Date(Year 0.5) 4.90% 9.95% (Index Return - 4.90%)× 5.00%

Call Valuation Date(Year 5.0) 49.00% 8.30% (Index Return - 49.00%)× 5.00%
Call Valuation Date(Year 5.5) 53.90% 8.14% (Index Return - 53.90%)× 5.00%
Call Valuation Date(Year 6.0) 58.80% 8.01% (Index Return - 58.80%)× 5.00%
Call Valuation Date(Year 6.5) 63.70% 7.87% (Index Return - 63.70%)× 5.00%
Final Valuation Date(Year 7.0) 68.60% 7.74% (Index Return - 68.60%)× 5.00%
If the Index Return is less than or equal to the Fixed Return and the Closing Level is equal to or above the AutoCall Level on the relevant Valuation Date, then the Excess
Return will be zero and the Variable Return will equal the Principal Amount multiplied by the relevant Fixed Return. See “Description of the Notes — Variable Return” and
“Additional Risk Factors Specific to the Notes” in the Prospectus.
Secondary Market The Notes will not be listed on any exchange or marketplace. BMO Capital Markets will use reasonable efforts under normal market conditions to provide for a daily
secondary market for the sale of the Notes through the order entry system operated by Fundserv Inc. but reserves the right to elect not to do so in the future, in its sole

BMO AutoCallable Notes, Series 1620 (CAD) Linked to Solactive Canada Bank 30 AR Index

HOW DO THE NOTES WORK?

The following hypothetical examples demonstrate how the Maturity Payment will be calculated and determined under four different scenarios. In each scenario below, it has been assumed that an investor purchased and continues to hold $10,000.00 worth of Notes (or 100 Notes). The hypothetical Closing Levels used in these examples are for illustrative purposes only and should not be construed in any way as estimates or forecasts of the future performance of the Reference Index or the return that a Holder might realize on the Notes. All hypothetical examples assume that no events described under “Special Circumstances” in the Prospectus, have occurred during the term.

Initial Level = 600.00 Barrier Level = 420.00 (70% of the Initial Level) AutoCall Level = 600.00 (100.00% of the Initial Level)

Example 1: Principal Loss at Maturity

----- Start of picture text -----

— Reference Index  Closing Level on Valuation Date
----- End of picture text -----

Valuation Date Closing Level Valuation Date Closing Level
1 480.00 8 180.00
2 324.00 9 204.00
3 198.00 10 186.00
4 174.00 11 168.00
5 210.00 12 228.00
6 216.00 13 246.00
7 192.00 14 222.00

In this hypothetical scenario, the Final Level is below the Barrier Level, so a Holder will receive a Maturity Payment equal to the Principal Amount reduced by an amount equal to the Index Return on the Final Valuation Date (which will be a negative amount reflecting the decline in the Closing Level), subject to the Minimum Payment Amount.

Closing Level on Final Valuation Date = 222.00

Index Return = (Final Level – Initial Level) / Initial Level

= (222.00 - 600.00) / 600.00 = -63.00%

Maturity Payment = Principal Amount + (Principal Amount × Index Return) = $100.00 + ($100.00 × -63.00%) = $37.00 per Note.

Assuming a principal investment of $10,000.00 (or 100 Notes), a Holder will receive a Maturity Payment of $3,700.00 on the Maturity Date (equal to a 63.00% loss on the $10,000.00 principal investment or an annualized loss of 13.23%).

5 180.00 12 390.00
6 162.00 13 426.00
7 192.00 14 510.00

In this hypothetical scenario, the Final Level is below the AutoCall Level, but above the Barrier Level, so there is no Variable Return payable on the Notes and a Holder will receive a Maturity Payment equal to the Principal Amount.

Closing Level on Final Valuation Date = 510.00

Index Return = (Final Level – Initial Level) / Initial Level = (510.00 - 600.00) / 600.00 = -15.00%

Maturity Payment = Principal Amount = $100.00 per Note.

Assuming a principal investment of $10,000.00 (or 100 Notes), a Holder will receive a Maturity Payment of $10,000.00 on the Maturity Date (or an annualized return of 0.00%).

In this hypothetical scenario, the Final Level is above the AutoCall Level, thus triggering the Notes to be automatically called by the Bank. A Holder will receive a Maturity Payment equal to the Principal Amount, plus the Variable Return.

Variable Return = Principal Amount × (Fixed Return + Excess Return)

Fixed Return on Final Valuation Date = 68.60%

Index Return = (Final Level – Initial Level) / Initial Level

= (786.00 - 600.00) / 600.00 = 31.00%

An Index Return of 31.00% is less than the Fixed Return on the Final Valuation Date, so there is no Excess Return reflected in the Variable Return payable on the Maturity Date.

Variable Return = Principal Amount × (Fixed Return + Excess Return) = $100.00 × (68.60% + 0.00%) = $68.60

Maturity Payment = Principal Amount + Variable Return = $100.00 + $68.60 = $168.60 per Note.

Assuming a principal investment of $10,000.00 (or 100 Notes), a Holder will receive a Maturity Payment of $16,860.00 on the Maturity Date (or an annualized return of 7.74%).

Reference Index  Closing Level on Valuation Date

In this hypothetical scenario, the Final Level is above the AutoCall Level on the second Call Valuation Date, thus triggering the Notes to be automatically called by the Bank. A Holder will receive a Maturity Payment equal to the Principal Amount, plus the Variable Return on the Call Date.

Fixed Return on second Call Valuation Date = 9.80%

Index Return = (Final Level – Initial Level) / Initial Level = (720.00 - 600.00) / 600.00 = 20.00%

An Index Return of 20.00% is higher than the Fixed Return on the second Call Valuation Date. Holder will benefit from the Excess Return reflected in the Variable Return payable on the Call Date.

Excess Return = (Index Return – Fixed Return) × Participation Rate

= (20.00% - 9.80%) × 5.00% = 0.51%

Variable Return = Principal Amount × (Fixed Return + Excess Return)

= $100.00 × (9.80% + 0.51%) = $10.31

Maturity Payment = Principal Amount + Variable Return = $100.00 + $10.31 = $110.31 per Note.

Assuming a principal investment of $10,000.00 (or 100 Notes), a Holder will receive a Maturity Payment of $11,031.00 on the Call Date (or an annualized return of 10.31%). The Notes will be cancelled and a Holder will not be entitled to receive any subsequent payments in respect of the Notes.
